CPTR용 카세그레인 오프셋 복 반사경의 해석

Analysis of Cassegrain Dual Offset Reflectors for Compact Payload Test Range

  • 발행 : 2008.01.31

초록

일반적으로 카세그레 인 오프셋 복 반사경(Cassegrain Dual Offset Reflector)은 위성 통신용 안테나로 사용되지만, 여기서는 CPTR(Compact Payload Test Range)을 위한 반사경 시스템으로 해석하였다. 시험 영역의 근접 전계는 물리 광학법(Physical Optics)을 적용하여 계산하였다. CPTR은 균일한 평면파 제공을 목적으로 하며, 이를 위해 최소한의 진폭과 위상 리플(ripple)을 가져야 하며, 교차 편파 또한 작아야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 반사경 구조 및 시험 영역의 위치에 따른 근접 전계 패턴을 구하여 전계의 리플, 테이퍼와 교차 편파를 고찰하였다. 특히 통신용 반사경 안테나에서는 나타나지 않는 안테나 축방향의 교차 편파 성분을 고찰하였다.

In general, the cassegrain dual offset reflector is used for the satellite communication antenna, but is analyzed as the reflector system for the CPTR(Compact Payload Test Range) facility in here. The near-field at the test zone of the CPTR is obtained by using the physical optics approximation. The CPTR has to provide a uniform plane wave with the minimum amplitude and phase ripple and the low cross polarization. Therefore, in this paper, the near-field pattern are calculated, and the ripple and taper of the field and the cross polarization are investigated with the variation of the reflector geometry and the position of the test region. Especially, the cross polarization of the antenna axis direction which is not found in the satellite reflector antennas is investigated.
