초록

본 논문에서는 두 개의 주파수 대역에서 동작하는 주름형 정사각형 도파관 편파기의 설계 방법을 제시하였다. 두 개의 주파수 대역에서 축비 대역폭이 최적이 되며 낮은 입력 반사계수를 가지도록 아이리스의 개수, 두께, 높이 등의 설계 변수 결정법을 제시하였다. 설계기법의 적용 예로서 21 GHz와 31 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 편파기를 설계, 제작, 측정하였다. 제작된 편파기는 $20.8\~21.2\;GHz$ 대역과 $30.6\~31.0\;GHz$ 대역에서 -35 dB 이하의 반사계수와 0.3 dB 이하의 축비를 가짐을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we present methods for designing a square-waveguide iris polarizer operating at dual frequency bands. Methods are presented fur determining the number of ires, iris thickness, iris height and spacing between ires so that the input reflection is low and the axial-ratio bandwidth is optimized at two frequency bands. As an example of the application of the proposed method, a polarizer operating at 21 GHz and 31 GHz bands is designed, fabricated and tested. The fabricated polarizer shows a reflection coefficient less than -35 dB and an axial ratio less than 0.3 dB at $20.8\~21.2\;GHz$ and $30.6\~31.0\;GHz$.
