1 High-Performance Dual-Circularly Polarized Reflector Antenna Feed Joo-Young Lim, Jargalsaikhan Nyambayar, Je-Young Yun, Dong-Hyun Kim, Tae-Hyung Kim, Bierng-Chearl Ahn, and Jae-Hoon Bang This paper presents a high-performance dual-circularly polarized feed employing a dielectric-filled circular waveguide. Novel features are incorporated in the proposed feed, such as a dielectric rod radiator for high gain and good impedance matching; dual quarter-wave chokes for low axial ratio over wide angles and for low back radiation; an integrated septum polarizer; and two end-launch-type coaxial-to-waveguide transitions. The proposed feed shows excellent performance at. GHz to.2 GHz. Keywords: Reflector antenna feed, dual-circular polarization, low axial ratio. I. Introduction Dual-circularly polarized reflector antennas are widely used for telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) of air and space vehicles such as aircrafts, UAVs, rockets, artillery projectiles, missiles, satellites, and spacecrafts [1]. Since it is difficult and impractical to realize vehicular antennas with good circular polarization at all angles, dual-circularly polarized antennas are normally employed at the ground station for TT&C [2]. The performance of a reflector antenna is critically dependent on the quality of its feed. A dual-polarized feed can be realized in many forms, such as in a printed element [3], a crossed dipole or slot [4], or a waveguide open end or horn []. Among them, the waveguide or horn-type feed having a length of several wavelengths is more conveniently realized by employing an integrated septum polarizer [6]. In addition it is easier to increase the bandwidth and to enhance the feed performance. In this paper, a dual-circularly polarized feed based on a dielectric-filled circular waveguide is proposed. The proposed feed is developed for use in C-band (. GHz to.2 GHz) telemetry applications. The detailed design concept of each component and the combined structure are presented. The performance of the proposed feed is verified with measurements. Manuscript received Feb. 2, 214; revised June 28, 214; accepted July 28, 214.

Feed Design Figure 1 shows the proposed feed operating at. GHz to.2 GHz. The feed consists of a dielectric-filled circular waveguide having an inner diameter of 2 mm and an outer diameter of 39 mm for size reduction; a dielectric rod radiator ETRI Journal, Volume 36, Number 6, December Joo-Young Lim et al

Proposed dual-circularly polarized feed. Coaxial probe (port 2) with an impedance-matching hollow region; three grooves for further impedance matching; dual chokes for low axial ratio over a wide angle and for low back-lobe radiation; a septum polarizer for dual polarization generation and separation; and two coaxial-to-waveguide transitions. The septum polarizer acts both as a polarizer and as an orthomode transducer generating right and left circularlypolarized waves. Its operating principles are well known [7] and are not repeated in this paper. The proposed feed is designed in the following steps. First, the feed is designed without the septum polarizer and coaxial transition. Second, the septum polarizer and coaxial transition are designed separately and then combined. Finally, the overall structure is constructed and optimized. The impedancematching grooves and coaxial transition are adjusted for better impedance matching. The widely used Microwave Studio TM v. 212 by CST has been employed in the design. The circular waveguide is filled with low-loss polycarbonate material having dielectric constant of 2.76 and loss tangent of. at GHz to reduce the waveguide diameter. The dielectric rod radiator [8] is realized by extending the polycarbonate material filling the waveguide. A hollow cylinder is formed at the rod s end for impedance matching. The gain and beamwidth of the feed are controlled by adjusting the diameter and length of the rod. Three grooves on the dielectric rod inside the waveguide, together with the hollow region at the rod s end, improve the impedance matching. Groove regions are filled with air. Groove dimensions and locations were iteratively optimized Gain (db) 1 1 w/ choke & dielectric 2 w/o choke w/o dielectric Fig. 3.

Figure 2 shows the impedance matching performances with and without the three grooves. The reflection coefficient is reduced from 11 db to 21 db at.1 GHz. Dual chokes improve the axial ratio at wide angles and suppress the back lobe. The initial depths of the dual chokes are set to.2 λ and. λ, and their optimum values are obtained by a parameter sweep. Figures 3 and 4 show the effects of the dielectric rod and dual chokes on the antenna performance. The dielectric rod increases the gain by about 3 db. The dual chokes suppress the back radiation by about 9 db and 89 Joo-Young Lim et al. ETRI Journal, Volume 36, Number 6, December 214

Feed components are separately designed and combined to form the final structure, which is then further optimized to account for interaction between components. Dimensions of the optimally designed feed are shown in Figure and Table 1. A septum polarizer with five steps is employed for the generation of a dual-circularly polarized wave. Step dimensions are determined by parameter sweeps for good impedance matching, high isolation, and low axial ratio. Figure 6 shows the performance of the designed septum polarizer. Over.

Figure 9 shows the measured co- and cross-polarized gain patterns in the plane normal to the septum surface. The antenna s measured gain is 9.8 dbic, and the half beamwidth at the 1 db taper level is 9.6. The cross-polarization level is less than 19 db over 6 θ +6. Figure 1 shows the measured axial ratio, which is. db at θ = and 1.8 db at θ = ±6. Figure 11 shows the phase center versus the frequency relative to the rod s end. At. GHz to.2 GHz, the phase center varies from 27. mm to 28. mm. The fabricated feed s performance agrees well with the simulation. III. Conclusion Simulation Measurement This paper presented a dual-circularly polarized feed employing a dielectric-filled circular waveguide. The proposed feed incorporated a circular-waveguide-fed dielectric rod antenna made of low-loss polycarbonate material, impedancematching grooves, dual quarter-wave chokes, a septum polarizer, and two coaxial transitions. The proposed feed showed excellent characteristics, such as compactness, low axial ratio over wide angles, and low back radiation. The concept proposed in this paper can be applied to the design of high-performance feeds for prime-focus tracking reflector antennas with a wide range of F/D (front-to-back) ratios by properly adjusting the dielectric rod length.
