9、n-lobe 1 Modelling of the antenna main-lobe The gain of an elliptical aperture antenna in the main-lobe for a specific angle of rotation with respect to the major axis depends on both the off-axis angle and the D/ ratio for the plane of interest1. The derivation which follows is the simplified case

10、that assumes the antenna major axis dimension of the antenna aperture is parallel to the GSO plane2. Models for calculating the D/ ratio for the plane of interest for other antenna shapes and for elliptical antennas which do not conform to this simplified case can also be developed. The model for th

11、e simplified case of an elliptical antenna is developed below: The dimensions of the antenna aperture in the GSO plane and the plane perpendicular to the GSO plane can be related to one another and to the equivalent diameter using the defined ratio K where: eqGSODKD = (1) KDDGSOGSO=(2) where: GSOD i

12、s the antenna dimension in the geostationary orbit plane; GSODis the antenna dimension in the plane perpendicular toGSOD;eqD is the equivalent circular diameter of the physical antenna; K is the ratio of the perpendicular dimensionsGSOD to GSODand the antenna boresight is normal to the plane contain

13、ing the dimensions GSOD and GSOD. For elliptical antenna pattern, the values of DGSOand DGSOcan be applied to an ellipse equation to calculate the antenna dimension D in the plane of interest. Figure 1 shows the relationship between D (represented by dotted line) and the ellipse in the plane of inte

16、Dx(3) Assuming the major axis of the antenna is aligned with the geostationary orbit plane and represents the angle of rotation in a counter-clockwise direction about the main beam direction, the antenna “dimension” (of the antenna aperture in the plane parallel to the boresight axis, passing throug

17、h the direction of interest and the boresight axis) can be expressed as a function of the rotation angle . Therefore, x and y in (3) can be expressed as: = cosRx (4) = sinRy (5) where: D the dimension, in metres, of the antenna aperture in the plane of interest as shown in Figure 1; R the “radius” o

19、ITU-R S.2196 3 Replacing x and y in (3) by (4) and (5), and R with D/2, the antenna dimension D in the plane of interest can be expressed as follows: +=222cossinGSOGSOGSODDDD(6) Substitute equation (2) into equation (6), it gives: +=222cos)1(sinKDDGSO(7) To simplify the notation, the denominator of

20、equation (7) is defined as rotation factor F, which is a function of the rotation angle and the DGSOto DGSOratio K. Therefore, FDDGSO= (8) where: +=222cos)1(sin),(KKF (9) For a given antenna, having a major-to-minor axis ratio K, the value of F can be expressed as a function of the rotation angle .

21、Therefore, in a plane of interest of a given antenna, having a major-to-minor axis ratio K, D is simply a function of . 2 Modelling the antenna main-lobe given a side-lobe reference pattern Modelling the transition region between the main-lobe of an antenna and the side-lobe envelope requires knowle

22、dge of the reference pattern depicting the antennas side-lobe envelope. The main-lobe of an antenna and the transition region between the main-lobe and the side-lobe envelope can be modelled for two types of side-lobe reference patterns. The methodologies in this Report may be used with either Recom

23、mendation ITU-R S.465-6 or Recommendation ITU-R S.1855. Although the intersection point in this model where the envelope of the side-lobe reference pattern intersects the antenna main lobe is equal to the main-lobe gain in equation (10), the actual gain in this vicinity may be considerably less. In

24、fact, the first null of a parabolic reflector type antenna occurs very near this intersection point. The actual location of the null will be determined by a number of factors including type of illumination. The antenna main lobe model in equation (10) assumes a uniform illumination resulting in a wi

25、der main lobe and thus results in a conservative estimate of gain at the intersection point. The very small transition region between this intersection point and the minimum angle applicable to the side-lobe reference pattern follows the applicable side-lobe reference pattern. 4 Rep.
