Abstract

In this paper, we studied the method of designing a embedded antenna for mounting on the JTDLS complete aircraft. The proposed antenna satisfies the MIDS-LVT operation frequency band and is designed as a broadband in consideration of expandability. As a result of the design, it was confirmed that the proposed antenna has similar electrical performance to the existing blade antenna and has broadband characteristics. As a result of EM analysis, the antenna was mounted on the top and bottom parts of the aircraft to check the mount of the aircraft, and it was confirmed that both the top and bottom parts had good radiation characteristics. The technology acquired through this study is judged to be applicable to the JTDLS completed aircraft.

본 논문에서는 JTDLS 완성형 항공기에 장착하기 위한 내장형 안테나 설계 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 제안된 안테나는 MIDS-LVT 운용 대역을 충족하고, 확장성을 고려하여 광대역으로 설계하였다. 설계결과, 제안된 안테나는 기존 블레이드 안테나와 전기적 성능은 유사하고, 광대역 특성임을 확인하였다. 항공기 장착성을 확인하기 위해 항공기 상/하부에 안테나를 장착하여 EM 분석한 결과, 상/하부 모두 양호한 복사특성을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 획득한 기술은 JTDLS 완성형 항공기에 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
