Radome casing and method for manufacturing the radome casing
11283164 · 2022-03-22 · ·

Invention relates to a radome casing and method for its manufacturing. The radome casing comprises walls (6, 11) of composite material which includes reinforcement fibers (8) and matrix resin (19) binding the fibers together. The walls include a radiation transmission window (11) through which the radiation of a radome antenna passes when the radome antenna (2) is mounted inside the radome casing (1). The amount of fibers in the radiation transmission window (11) is reduced to be less than 40-5% of the amount of fibers elsewhere in the casing walls (6). The reduction of reinforcement fibers in the radiation transmission window (11) reduces attenuation of the high frequency radiation.

Multi-layer antenna assembly and related antenna array

A multi-layer antenna assembly and related antenna array are provided. In one aspect, a multi-layer antenna assembly includes a first radiating layer(s) and a second radiating layer(s). The second radiating layer(s) is provided below and in parallel to the first radiating layer(s). The second radiating layer(s) overlaps at least partially with the first radiating layer(s). In this regard, an electromagnetic wave radiated vertically from the second radiating layer(s) is horizontally guided by an overlapping portion of the first radiating layer(s). In another aspect, an antenna array can be configured to include a number of multi-layer antenna assemblies to enable radio frequency (RF) beamforming. By employing the multi-layer antenna assemblies in the antenna array, it may be possible to flexibly and naturally steer an RF beam in a desired direction(s) without causing oversized side lobes, thus helping to improve power efficiency and performance of the antenna array.
