本論文提出三支適用於無線區域網路(WiFi)2.4GHz頻段之可重置圓極化陣列天線設計。論文中所研究的天線皆為單饋入架構設計。第一支天線設計是利用圓弧槽控制輻射體的表面電流流向,使天線擁有雙圓極化特性。第二支天線是利用環形微帶線控制輻射體的表面電流流向,以達成雙圓極化特性。第三支天線是採用(第二支天線架構)以及180°相位差的饋入網路所構成陣列天線,如同上述第二支天線,此陣列天線保有雙圓極化之特性。 本論文所設計的天線特點為具有雙圓極化特性、雙方向圓極化輻射場型以及單饋入架構,其優點除了可以提高天線接收能力,亦可以減少系統的天線數量需求以及縮小天線整體大小。詳細的天線設計與特性分析以及量測將會在各章節探討。
The thesis presents three different reconfigurable and circular polarized antennas which are operated at 2.4GHz and targeted for wireless local area network system. All the proposed antennas have single feed structure. The first antenna uses circular arc to control the surface current direction on the antenna so that dual circular polarization can be achieved. The second antenna applies annular line to control the surface current direction on the antenna and, hence, the dual circular polarization is obtained. The third one is a two-element array antenna which consists of two annular line antennas (the second one mentioned above) feeding with 180 degrees out of phase. Again, the array antenna maintains the dual directional circular polarized property of the second antenna. The characteristics of the three antennas are controllable dual circular polarization with simple single feed structure. These antennas are compact and can improve the receiving quality as well as reduce the circuit size. The detail of the antenna design, simulation, and measurement are presented and discussed thoroughly in the thesis.
