SWHO OS 0.]. BALLVWBH HMSA PM'ENIED JUN I 91973 SHEEI t (If 5 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates toantennas and more particularly to cup-dipole and cup-turnstile type antennas.
The cup-dipole antenna is well known in the art for its equality of radiation patterns in the electric (E) and magnetic (H) planes. The cup-turnstile antenna, for this reason, is capable of producing radiation which is substantially circularly polarized in all directions on the associated radiation pattern. The dipole pairs in such a cup-turnstile antenna are fed in phase quadrature. A disadvantage of the cup-dipole and cup-turnstile antennas in the past, however, had been their limited operating bandwidth. More specifically, the bandwidth over which these prior antennas operate with a maximum voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 3.0 or less with respect to the characteristic impedance of standard feed lines has often been less than the bandwidths desired for receiving antenna system applications.
An object of this invention is the provision of cupdipole and cup-turnstile antennas having substantially improved operating bandwidths.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Improvement of the operating bandwidths of cupdipole and cup-turnstile antennas is achieved with a unique feed arrangement in which each dipole is effectively center fed by'a pair of coaxial lines having center conductors electrically interconnected adjacent the FIG. 1' is a perspective view of a cup-dipole antenna embodying the invention;

FIG. 5 depicts frequency VSWR performance curves of an antenna embodying this invention and a comparable prior art antenna, the frequency scale DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 2, an embodiment of the invention is shown as a cup-dipole assembly comprising a conductive cup 11 with a bottom wall 12 and a cylindrical side wall 13, and a dipole 15 disposed lumped-circuit impedance transformer 24 to an external standard coaxial input line linking the antenna assembly to utilization apparatus R such as a receiver. Impedance transformer 24 is of the type having a pair of anti-phase outputs and is a commercially available component; this transformer serves to excite monopole elements 15a and 15b in the manner of a center-fed dipole and also transforms the average inherent impedance of the antenna from its relatively high value to the value of the characteristic impedance of coaxial input line 25. For example, the average antenna impedance may be approximately 150 ohms and that of the coaxial input line 25 may be ohms. In this case, for the reason described hereafter, the charcteristic impedance of each of coaxial lines 21 and 22 is preferably 75 ohms. Feed lines 21 and 22 extend through and coaxially of pipes 18 and 19, respectively, and have outer conductors 21a, 22a and inner conductors 21b, 22b; see FIG. 3. Outer conductors 21a and 22a are electrically connectd to pipes 18 and 19, respectively.'Thus, monopole elements 15a and 15b are electrically connected, to the outer conductors 21a and 22a, respectively, of the coaxial feed lines. Center conductors 21b and 22b extend beyond the upper ends ofthe outer conductors and pipes as shown in FIG. 3 and are electrically connected together as indicated at 26.
An alternate feed line arrangement is shown in FIG. 4 in which coaxial line center conductors 21b and 22b are directly connected to balanced twin input feed lines 27 and 28, respectively, thus eliminating the need for impedance transformer 24. Outer conductors 21a and 22b are electrically connected to pipes 18 and 19, re-
being a ratio of signal frequency to the center frespectively, and to cup bottom wall 12 as described above.
Pipes l8 and 19 are electrically interconnected by a shorting plate 29 which is spaced a distance P from the dipole axis B as shown in FIG. 2. The distance P is determined empirically in order to compensate the adverse effects of a mutual coupling between currents on the surfaces of the cup and pipes as well as to make the average inherent impedance of the antenna a pure resistance as described in more detail hereinafter. The pipes may also be further mechanically coupled together adjacent the dipole by a dielectric plate 30.
FIG. 5 shows a measured input VSWR performance curve 31 of the cup-dipole antenna illustrated in FIG. 1. Also shown in FIG. 5 is a measured input VSWR performance curve 32 of a prior cup-dipole antenna believed to possess the broadest bandwidth of comparable prior art antennas. The improvement in bandwidth resulting from the practice of the invention is evident from a comparison of these performance curves.
An explanation of the substantially improved VSWR: performance or bandwidth of the antenna embodying I of this impedance over abroad frequency is inherently high compared to the characteristic impedance of the most often used type of transmission line, i.e., SO-ohm coaxial line. FIG. 6 illustrates this fact with a plot 33 of the locus of inherent impedance Z, on a 50-ohm Smith Chart. Note that the inherent impedance corresponding to 2,, (f is Z =6 X 50 300 ohms. The average inherent impedance Z corresponds approximately to the center of the nearly circular impedance locus, i.e.,
for the antenna of FIG. 1 having the design parameters herewith described, Z,,,, R 3 X 50 150 ohms. Making Z,, a pure resistance is achieved by setting shorting plate 29 at a corresponding optimum distance P from the dipole, that is, 2, R, a proper selection of the distance P. The condition 2, R is important in the practice of this invention.
Feeding the dipole(s) in the manner'provided by this invention permits the inherent impedance Z,, to be shared in equal portions by each of coaxial lines 21 and 22. Thus, selecting ('l the characteristic impedance of each of these coaxial lines to equal R /2 and (2) an impedance-transformation-ratio equal to R /Z where Z is the characteristic impedance of the input coaxial line 25, results in achievement of the following highly desirable properties: i
a. The R,,,,'(at the dipole terminals) transforms to 2 at theinput terminal. I b. The nearly circular locus of inherent impedance approximately centered at R, at the dipole terminals, upon selecting the distance P optimurnly, transforms to a nearly circular impedance locus with center at Z,', at the input terminal; hence, reasonably small antenna VSWR characteristics over a broad and extended frequency band are achievable in the antenna embodying the: invention.
Achieving the foregoing desirable results-(a) and (b) also requires that the outer conductors of coaxial lines 21 and 22-be connected to r.f. ground at the location of impedance transformer 24. This, in 3 turn, requires that such transformer be the electrical equivalent of a lumped-circuit transformer having a center-tapped se condary winding, with center tap connected to.the outer conductors of coaxial lines 21 and 22 and the ends of the secondary wind-' ings connected to the center conductors of' the coaxial lines'2l and 22, respectively. The same'improved performance described by paragraph (b), above, is obtained in the case of a system employinga twin-lead input transmission line as shown in FIG. 4by simple selection of the characteristic impedance of the twin-lead line to be equal to R,,,,.
