Therefore, it is not necessary to install a distributor or a long coaxial cable for each subscriber, and the broadcast signal can be transmitted reliably. In addition, multiple millimeter wave transmitters that convert television broadcast waves into millimeter wave band signals and transmit them, and transmit to millimeter wave receivers using different polarizations, can be used. Even when the communication areas overlap to generate an interference area, a stable reception state can be achieved without causing interference.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of the entire millimeter-wave communication system according to the first embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a specific arrangement example of each device in the communication system, and FIG. It is a figure which shows the arrangement | positioning relationship between a millimeter wave transmitter and a millimeter wave receiver.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a satellite that performs television broadcasting, such as a JSAT 3 satellite, a JSAT 4 satellite, a 110 ° CS satellite, and a BS satellite. For example, the JSAT 3 satellite uses a vertically polarized wave with a frequency band of 12.268 GHz to 12.7315 GHz and a horizontally polarized wave with a frequency band of 12.270 GHz to 12.7465 GHz, and transmits a TV broadcast signal of a plurality of channels. .

  On the other hand, satellite reception antennas 11 and 12 that receive radio waves such as BS broadcasts and CS broadcasts transmitted from the satellite 1 are jointly provided on the side of the TV joint reception facility provided in a high-rise building such as a condominium. Installed on the rooftop of the house or outside the middle floor. In this case, one satellite receiving antenna 11 is installed on the roof of the apartment house, and the other satellite receiving antenna 12 is installed at a predetermined position on the middle floor of the apartment house, that is, a position that can receive TV broadcast waves from the satellite. You may do it.

  The satellite receiving antennas 11 and 12 receive transmission radio waves from the satellite 1 and convert them into intermediate frequency signals (hereinafter referred to as IF signals) by the converters 13 and 14, respectively. To the millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18. As will be described later in detail, the millimeter wave transmitters 17 and 18 are integrally provided with a transmission unit and a transmission antenna, and are accommodated in, for example, a circular case. In this case, a transmitting antenna is disposed on the front side of the case.

  The millimeter-wave transmitters 17 and 18 convert the IF signal output from the converters 13 and 14 into a millimeter-wave band signal of, for example, 59 GHz to 66 GHz, for example, a carrier signal (local oscillation frequency for each predetermined channel group ( (Hereinafter referred to as a local signal) and transmitted. In this case, the millimeter wave transmitters 17 and 18 perform millimeter wave transmission by changing the polarization, respectively. For example, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 performs transmission by millimeter wave using right-handed polarization, and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 performs transmission by millimeter wave using left-handed polarization.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 is provided so as to protrude laterally from the roof of the apartment house 19 by the arm 37 or the like, and is set to transmit radio waves downward from the transmission antenna. . That is, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 forms a first communication area 21 by the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 below the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 as shown in FIG.

  The second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 is installed so as to project laterally on the middle floor of the apartment 19, that is, the veranda on the substantially central floor, and transmits radio waves downward from the transmitting antenna. Set to. That is, the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 is positioned in the direction of the first communication area 21 by the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and forms the second communication area 22 in the downward direction.

  On the other hand, on the subscriber side of the system, the system subscriber's home is located on the upper floor from the installation position of the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 and is in the first communication area 21 by the first millimeter wave transmitter 17. In some cases, a first millimeter wave receiver 31 is installed. The first millimeter wave receiver 31 uses the same plane of polarization as that of the first millimeter wave transmitter 17, in this case, a right-handed polarization, and transmits the transmission wave of the first millimeter wave transmitter 17. Enable reception. As shown in FIG. 2, the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 is installed on the veranda or the like of the system subscriber's house so as to face the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 via the arm 38 or the like. The transmission wave from the millimeter wave transmitter 17 can be received well.

  Further, when the system subscriber's home is located on the lower floor than the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 and is in the second communication area 22, the second millimeter wave receiver 32 is installed. The second millimeter-wave receiver 32 receives the transmission wave of the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 with the reception polarization plane being the same polarization as the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18, in this example, the left-handed polarization. It can be so. Similarly to the first millimeter wave receiver 31, the second millimeter wave receiver 32 is installed so as to face the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 in a veranda or the like of the system subscriber's house. The transmission wave from the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 can be received well. As will be described in detail later, each of the millimeter wave receivers 31 and 32 is integrally provided with a receiving unit and a receiving antenna, and is housed in, for example, a circular case. In this case, a receiving antenna is disposed on the front side of the case.

  Since the second communication area 22 by the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 is formed below the first communication area 21 by the first millimeter wave transmitter 17, an area overlapping the communication areas 21 and 22. Exists. This overlapping region is an interference region 23 in which the transmission wave of the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the transmission wave of the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 may interfere with each other. As described above, the first millimeter wave Interference can be prevented by making the polarizations of the transmission waves of the transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 different.

  The first millimeter-wave receiver 31 installed in each system subscriber's home receives a right-hand polarized signal sent from the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 and receives a local signal included in the received signal. The millimeter wave is converted into the original IF signal using the signal and output to the BS / CS tuner 33. The BS / CS tuner 33 selects a television signal of a desired channel from the IF signals output from the first millimeter wave receiver 31 and outputs the selected television signal to the television receiver (TV) 34.

  The second millimeter-wave receiver 32 installed in each system subscriber's home receives the left-handed polarized wave signal sent from the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 and receives the local wave included in the received signal. The millimeter wave is converted into the original IF signal using the signal and output to the BS / CS tuner 35. The BS / CS tuner 35 selects a television signal of a desired channel from the IF signals output from the second millimeter wave receiver 32 and outputs the selected television signal to the television receiver (TV) 36.

  The mixer 41a mixes the IF signal output from the converter 13 and the local signal generated by the local signal oscillating unit 42a, converts it to a millimeter-wave frequency, and outputs it to the bandpass filter 43a. The local signal generated by the local signal oscillator 42a is input to the band pass filter 43a. The band pass filter 43a takes in the IF signal output from the mixer 41a and the local signal from the local signal oscillating unit 42a, and outputs it from the right-handed transmission antenna 44a as a right-handed polarized transmission wave.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 includes a mixer 41b, a local signal oscillation unit 42b that generates a local signal of a predetermined frequency, a bandpass filter (BPF) 43b, and a left-handed transmission. It consists of an antenna 44b.

  The mixer 41b mixes the IF signal output from the converter 14 and the local signal generated by the local signal oscillating unit 42b, converts it to a millimeter-wave frequency, and outputs it to the bandpass filter 43b. The local signal generated by the local signal oscillator 42a is input to the band pass filter 43a. The bandpass filter 43b takes in the IF signal output from the mixer 41b and the local signal from the local signal oscillating unit 42b, and outputs the IF signal as a left-hand polarized transmission wave from the left-handed transmission antenna 44b.

  The first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 use a modulation scheme based on phase modulation, for example, QPSK, 8PSK, nQCAM, and the like. Since it is easily affected, the local signals generated by the local signal oscillators 42a and 42b are added as described above and transmitted to the first millimeter wave receiver 31 and the second millimeter wave receiver 32, respectively.

  The first millimeter wave receiver 31 and the second millimeter wave receiver 32 convert the millimeter wave into the original IF signal using the local signal in the received signal.

  Hereinafter, configuration examples of the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 and the second millimeter-wave receiver 32 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 includes a right-handed reception antenna 51a that receives a transmission wave from the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17, a bandpass filter (BPF) 52a, and a mixer. 53a and an amplifier 54a.

  The right-handed receiving antenna 51a receives the right-handed polarized wave signal transmitted from the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and inputs it to the bandpass filter 52a. The bandpass filter 52a passes a broadcast signal and a local signal of a predetermined frequency band received by the right-handed receiving antenna 51a, and outputs them to the mixer 53a. The mixer 53a mixes the broadcast signal and the local signal into an original IF signal, and outputs it to the BS / CS tuner 33 via the amplifier 54a.

  The second millimeter wave receiver 32 includes a left-handed receiving antenna 51b, a bandpass filter (BPF) 52b, a mixer 53b, and an amplifier 54b as shown in FIG. 5B.

  The left-handed receiving antenna 51b receives the left-handed polarized wave signal transmitted from the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 and inputs it to the bandpass filter 52b. The band-pass filter 52b passes a broadcast signal and a local signal of a predetermined frequency band received by the left-handed receiving antenna 51b and outputs them to the mixer 53b. The mixer 53b mixes the broadcast signal and the local signal into an original IF signal, and outputs it to the BS / CS tuner 35 via the amplifier 54b.

  As described above, the TV broadcast signal sent from the satellite is received by the TV joint reception facility, converted into millimeter waves by the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18, and joined to each system. By transmitting to the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 and the second millimeter-wave receivers 32 and 32 of the user, there is no need to install a distributor or a long coaxial cable for each system subscriber, and the television broadcast signal Can be easily transmitted.

  In addition, since the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 have different planes of polarization of the transmission wave, there is an interference region 23 between the communication regions 21 and 22. There is no interference, and the upper and lower floors of the apartment can be in a stable reception state.

  Further, since the millimeter wave transmitters 17 and 18 transmit local signals together with the television broadcast signals, the millimeter waves are converted into the original IF signals without generating the local signals at the millimeter wave receivers 31 and 32. be able to. Therefore, the configuration of the millimeter wave receivers 31 and 32 can be simplified, and stable reception is possible.

  In the first embodiment, two satellite receiving antennas 11 and 12 are provided, and the outputs of the converters 13 and 14 are input to the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18. As described above, one antenna may be provided, and a signal output from the converter may be branched and input to the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18.

  In the first embodiment, the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 is provided on the roof of the apartment house 19 and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 is provided on the middle floor so that the transmission waves are output downward. However, for example, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 is provided in the lowermost layer of the apartment house 19 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 is provided in the middle floor. May be received by the first millimeter wave receiver 31 and the second millimeter wave receiver 32. In this case, the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 is installed on the lower floor of the apartment house 19, and the second millimeter-wave receiver 32 is installed on the upper floor.

  In the first embodiment, the case where the two satellite receiving antennas 11 and 12 are provided has been described. However, for example, one satellite receiving antenna 11 is provided, and the output signal of the converter 13 is output to 2 by a distributor. They may be distributed and supplied to the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 6 shows an arrangement relationship between the millimeter wave transmitter and the millimeter wave receiver according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
In the millimeter wave communication system according to the second embodiment, the case where the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 are arranged at substantially the same position on the roof of the apartment house 19 is shown. is there. In this case, the millimeter wave transmitters 17 and 18 are provided so as to protrude laterally from the roof of the apartment 19 by an arm or the like. In this case, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 uses a transmission antenna with a wide directivity and a low gain, and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 uses a transmission antenna with a narrow directivity and a high gain. Also, the millimeter wave transmitters 17 and 18 use different polarization planes as in the first embodiment. For example, the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 uses right-handed polarization, and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 uses left-handed polarization.

  As a result, the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 forms a wide first communication region 21, and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 forms a narrow second communication region 22. Moreover, the 1st millimeter wave receiver 31 and the 2nd millimeter wave receiver 32 are installed similarly to the said embodiment. That is, the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 is installed on the upper floor of the apartment house so as to enter the first communication area 21. The second millimeter wave receiver 32 is installed on the lower floor of the apartment house so as to enter the second communication area 22 below the first communication area 21.

  By adopting the above configuration, the directivity of the transmission antenna is wide on the high floor of the apartment house, so that when the first millimeter wave receiver 31 is installed, the adjustment becomes easy. Further, since the first millimeter wave receiver 31 is installed on a higher floor, the distance from the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 is short and the transmission loss is small, so the reception electric field does not decrease. For this reason, even if the gain of the transmission antenna in the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 is lowered, the first millimeter wave receiver 31 can reliably receive the transmission wave from the first millimeter wave transmitter 17. . Further, by reducing the gain of the transmission antenna in the first millimeter wave transmitter 17, it is possible to prevent the transmission wave from being transmitted far and to reduce interference with other regions.

  On the other hand, since the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 has a narrow directivity of the transmission antenna and a high gain, a strong reception electric field can be obtained even at a long distance, that is, the lower floor of the apartment house. Therefore, the second millimeter wave receiver 32 installed on the lower floor of the apartment house can stably receive the transmission wave from the second millimeter wave transmitter 18.

  Further, by narrowing the directivity of the transmission antenna of the second millimeter wave transmitter 18, interference with other areas can be reduced. Further, even if the directivity of the transmission antenna of the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 is narrowed, the same electric field region is spread on the lower floor at a long distance, so that the second millimeter wave receiver 32 can be adjusted. It won't be difficult.

  By installing the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 at substantially the same position, an interference region 23 exists between the communication regions 21 and 22, but the millimeter wave transmitter 17 , 18 can make it possible to reliably prevent crosstalk by changing the plane of polarization of the radio wave transmitted from 18, so that the upper and lower floors of the apartment can be in a stable reception state.

  In the second embodiment, the first millimeter-wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 are installed on the roof of the apartment house 19, and the transmission waves are output downward, respectively. The first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 are installed in the lowermost layer of the apartment house 19 to output the transmission waves upward, and these transmission waves are output to the first millimeter wave receiver. 31 may be received by the second millimeter wave receiver 32. In this case, the first millimeter-wave receiver 31 is installed on the lower floor of the apartment house 19, and the second millimeter-wave receiver 32 is installed on the upper floor.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 7 shows an arrangement relationship between the millimeter wave transmitter and the millimeter wave receiver according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
In the millimeter wave communication system according to the third embodiment, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 shown in the first embodiment of FIG. 3 is installed on the middle floor of the apartment 19 as shown in FIG. Is transmitted upward, and this transmission wave is received by the first millimeter wave receiver 31 provided on the upper floor. In addition, the positional relationship between the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 and the second millimeter wave receiver 32 is the same as that in the first embodiment. That is, the second millimeter wave receiver 18 is installed on the middle floor of the apartment house 19 and the second millimeter wave receiver is provided with a radio wave transmitted downward from the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 on the lower floor. It is received by the machine 32.

  As described above, the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18 are provided on the middle floor of the apartment 19, and the transmission wave of the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 is output upward, By outputting the transmission wave of the second millimeter-wave transmitter 18 in the downward direction, the two communication areas 21 and 22 do not overlap each other, and no interference area is formed. Therefore, interference can be prevented without changing the polarization of the first millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the second millimeter wave transmitter 18. In addition, if the polarization of the 1st millimeter wave transmitter 17 and the 2nd millimeter wave transmitter 18 is changed, interference can be prevented more reliably.
