Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Antennenanordnung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an antenna arrangement according to the preamble of
Aus Druckschrift
Aus [1] ist eine Anordnung einer Peilantenne bekannt. Die Antenne umfasst dabei einen Mastabschnitt, welcher als UHF-Antenne dient und einen weiteren Mastabschnitt, welcher als VHF-Antenne dient.From [1] an arrangement of a DF antenna is known. The antenna comprises a mast section, which serves as a UHF antenna and another mast section, which serves as a VHF antenna.
Eine solche Antennenanordnung kommt oft bei Peilantennensystemen zum Einsatz, wie sie auf Schiffen der Marine verwendet werden. Eine bekannte Anforderung an solche Schiffe ist bekanntermaßen die Unsichtbarkeit des jeweiligen Schiffes für das gegnerische Radar. Da die Peilantennen stets an der Mastspitze eines Schiffs angeordnet sind, ragen diese als erstes über den Horizont und können so leicht detektiert werden. Ausschlaggebend für die Detektion eines Objekts mittels Radar ist der jeweilige monostatische Radarrückstreuquerschnitt des jeweiligen Objekts. Aus der Anwendung ergibt sich ein zu optimierender Bedrohungssektor der dem Winkelbereich der möglichen einfallenden Radarstrahlung des gegnerischen Radars entspricht.Such an antenna arrangement is often used in DF antenna systems, as used on ships of the Navy. A known requirement for such ships is known to be the invisibility of the respective ship for the opposing radar. Since the DF antennas are always located at the top of a mast of a ship, they first protrude above the horizon and can thus easily be detected. Decisive for the detection of an object by means of radar is the respective monostatic radar backscatter cross section of the respective object. The application results in a threat sector to be optimized which corresponds to the angular range of the possible incident radar radiation of the opposing radar.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine gattungsgemäße Antennenanordnung mit einem optimierten, niedrigen monostatischen Radarrückstreuquerschnitt für den Bedrohungssektor anzugeben.The object of the invention is to specify a generic antenna arrangement with an optimized, low monostatic Radarrückstreuquerschnitt for the threat sector.
Diese Aufgabe erfüllt die Antennenanordnung gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by the antenna arrangement according to the features of
Die erfindungsgemäße Antennenanordnung umfasst einen Mast sowie an dem Mast angeordnete Antennenelemente, wobei der Mast aus mehreren kegelstumpfförmigen Elementen aufgebaut ist und wobei eine Flächennormale der Antennenelemente mit der Senkrechten auf die Mastachse z einen Winkel |α| zwischen 5° und 35° bildet.The antenna arrangement according to the invention comprises a mast and antenna elements arranged on the mast, wherein the mast is constructed from a plurality of frustoconical elements and wherein a surface normal of the antenna elements with the perpendicular to the mast axis z is an angle | α | between 5 ° and 35 °.
Die Mastachse z fällt mit der symmetrischen Achse jedes kegelstumpfförmigen Elements zusammen.The mast axis z coincides with the symmetrical axis of each frusto-conical element.
Durch diese Maßnahmen ist es möglich, die monostatische Radarrückstreuung (RCS) der Antennenanordnung im Bedrohungssektor um mehr als 10dB zu verringern. Dadurch wird die Entfernung, aus der ein gegnerisches Radar das Schiff detektieren kann wesentlich verringert. Monostatisch bedeutet hierbei, dass der Einfallsrichtung und die Ausfallsrichtung der Radarstrahlung gleich ist, oder mit anderen Worten die Radarsendeantenne und die Radarempfangsantenne des gegnerischen Radars haben die gleiche Position. Dies ist bei den meisten Radaranlagen der Fall (z. B. einem Schiffsradar)Through these measures, it is possible to reduce the monostatic radar backscatter (RCS) of the antenna array in the threat sector by more than 10dB. This substantially reduces the range from which an opposing radar can detect the ship. In this case, monostatic means that the direction of incidence and the direction of failure of the radar radiation are the same, or in other words, the radar transmission antenna and the radar reception antenna of the opposing radar have the same position. This is the case with most radar systems (eg a ship's radar)
Vorteilhaft sind die einzelnen kegelstumpfförmigen Elemente des Masts abwechselnd an den Grundflächen und an den Deckenflächen miteinander verbunden. Die Flächeninhalte der aufeinander liegenden Grund- und Deckenflächen sind zweckmäßig jeweils gleich. Als Grundfläche wird im Weiteren die Fläche senkrecht zur symmetrischen Achse des Kegelstumpfes bezeichnet, welche sich aus dem größten Durchmesser des Kegelstumpfes ergibt. Die Deckenfläche bezeichnet entsprechend diejenige Fläche des Kegelstumpfes, welche sich aus dem kleinsten Durchmesser des Kegelstumpfes ergibt.
Der Mast besteht somit im Wesentlichen aus mehreren Doppelkegelstümpfen. Die Übergänge zwischen den einzelnen Doppelkegelstümpfen sind zweckmäßig homogen ausgeführt, d.h. es werden keine Flansche verwendet. Insbesondere weisen in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung die Flächennormalen auf den Mantelflächen zweier benachbarter, an den Deckenflächen miteinander verbundener kegelstumpfförmiger Mastelemente einen Winkel kleiner als 90° auf. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass die beiden Mantelflächen als idealer Rückstrahler dienen.Advantageously, the individual frustoconical elements of the mast are alternately connected to one another at the base surfaces and at the ceiling surfaces. The areas of the superposed ground and ceiling surfaces are expediently the same. In the following, the area perpendicular to the symmetrical axis of the truncated cone, which results from the largest diameter of the truncated cone, is called the base area. The ceiling surface correspondingly designates that surface of the truncated cone which results from the smallest diameter of the truncated cone.
The mast thus consists essentially of several double cone stumps. The transitions between the individual double truncated cones are expediently homogeneous, ie no flanges are used. In particular, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the surface normal on the lateral surfaces of two adjacent, connected to the ceiling surfaces frustoconical mast elements at an angle less than 90 °. This prevents the two lateral surfaces from serving as an ideal reflector.
Zweckmäßig ist der Mast auf einer Grundplatte aufgebracht. Hierbei ist der Mast vorteilhaft derart auf die Grundplatte aufgebracht, dass eine Normale auf die Oberseite der Grundplatte mit einer Normalen auf die Mantelfläche des ersten auf die Grundplatte aufgebrachten kegelstumpfförmigen Elements einen stumpfen Winkel bildet. Dadurch wird ein sicherer Stand des Masts gewährleistet.Suitably, the mast is applied to a base plate. Here, the mast is advantageously applied to the base plate such that a normal to the top the base plate forms an obtuse angle with a normal to the lateral surface of the first frusto-conical element applied to the base plate. This ensures a secure position of the mast.
