Embodiment
Describe embodiments of the invention below in detail, the example of described embodiment is shown in the drawings, and wherein same or similar label represents same or similar element or has the element of identical or similar functions from start to finish.Be exemplary below by the embodiment being described with reference to the drawings, be intended to for explaining the present invention, and can not be interpreted as limitation of the present invention.
In description of the invention, it will be appreciated that, term " " center ", " longitudinally ", " laterally ", " length ", " width ", " thickness ", " on ", D score, " front ", " afterwards ", " left side ", " right side ", " vertically ", " level ", " top ", " end " " interior ", " outward ", " clockwise ", orientation or the position relationship of indications such as " counterclockwise " are based on orientation shown in the drawings or position relationship, only the present invention for convenience of description and simplified characterization, rather than device or the element of indication or hint indication must have specific orientation, with specific orientation structure and operation, therefore can not be interpreted as limitation of the present invention.
In addition, term " first ", " second " be only for describing object, and can not be interpreted as indication or hint relative importance or the implicit quantity that indicates indicated technical characterictic.Thus, one or more these features can be expressed or impliedly be comprised to the feature that is limited with " first ", " second ".In description of the invention, the implication of " multiple " is two or more, unless otherwise expressly limited specifically.
In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms such as term " installation ", " being connected ", " connection ", " fixing " should be interpreted broadly, and for example, can be to be fixedly connected with, and can be also to removably connect, or connect integratedly; Can be mechanical connection, can be also electrical connection; Can be to be directly connected, also can indirectly be connected by intermediary, can be the connection of two element internals.For the ordinary skill in the art, can understand as the case may be above-mentioned term concrete meaning in the present invention.
Fig. 1 is the perspective view of the plane reflection array antenna of the integrated solar cell plate for aircraft of the embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 2 is the vertical view of the plane reflection array antenna of the integrated solar cell plate for aircraft shown in Fig. 1.As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, the plane reflection array antenna of the integrated solar cell plate for aircraft of the embodiment of the present invention, can comprise following part: the back of the body coating 10, solar panel 20 and antenna patch layer 30.Wherein solar panel 20 is positioned on back of the body coating 10.Antenna patch layer 30 is positioned on solar panel 20.Antenna patch layer 30 comprises multiple cross chip units 301.Wherein, realize phase adjusted by the size (regulating the length of the cross minor matters in cross chip unit 301) that regulates each cross chip unit 301, thereby form in the plane an equiphase surface at antenna patch layer 30.
As from the foregoing, the present invention accounts for by carry-on cosmic space two that quality and space the best part---communication antenna and solar panel effectively combine, and effectively reduces the weight of cosmic space aircraft, volume; Save a large amount of designs, launch cost.In addition, the present invention can be arranged on aircraft surface, makes full use of the planar structure of aircraft surface, has realized the conformalization design of communication antenna and aircraft surface on the aircraft of cosmic space.
It should be noted that, in the present invention, adopt and account for the less cross chip unit 301 of surface area, can guarantee that solar panel 20 decrease in efficiency degree are little.Also it should be noted that, solar panel 20 has served as the dielectric layer of antenna patch layer 30, and aircraft is at ordinary times in the large cosmic space of high radiation, the temperature difference, and the material character of solar panel 20 is stable, antijamming capability is strong, because of but one preferably select.And it should be noted that, solar panel 20 of the present invention and the antenna patch layer 30 with cross chip unit 301 are not subject to size restrictions, and the size that can design is compared with not increasing greatly and substantially design complexities.
