A low-profile CTS flat-plate array antenna includes a radiating layer, a mode switching layer and a feed network layer which are sequentially arrayed from top to bottom. The mode switching layer comprises a first metal plate and a mode switching cavity array arranged on an upper surface of the first metal plate and comprising 2mode switching cavities arrayed in 2rows and 2columns, wherein n is an integer greater than or equal to 1. Each mode switching cavity includes a first rectangular cavity, a second rectangular cavity, a third rectangular cavity, a fourth rectangular cavity and a fifth rectangular cavity which are sequentially connected from left to right. The 2mode switching cavities located in each row are sequentially connected end to end.

An ultra-wideband CTS flat-plate array antenna includes a radiating layer, a mode switching layer and a feed network layer sequentially arrayed from top to bottom. The mode switching layer comprises a first metal plate and a mode switching cavity formed in the first metal plate and including two mode switching units which are arranged left and right and each includes eight H-plane Y-type single-ridge waveguide power dividers arrayed in 4 rows and 2 columns. The H-plane Y-type single-ridge waveguide power divider in the mrow and 1column is bilaterally symmetrical with the H-plane Y-type single-ridge waveguide power divider in the mrow and 2column. The two H-plane Y-type single-ridge waveguide power dividers in the each row are connected through an E-plane T-type single-ridge waveguide power divider. A center distance between every two adjacent H-plane Y-type single-ridge waveguide power dividers in each column is not over one wavelength.

Ultra-wideband CTS flat-plate array antenna

A waveguide slotted array antenna comprises a feed layer and a radiation layer, wherein the feed layer is located below the radiation layer, and the radiation layer comprises a first radiation unit, a second radiation unit, a third radiation unit and a fourth radiation unit which are stacked from bottom to top; the first radiation unit comprises a first flat metal plate and a first radiation array arranged on the first flat metal plate, the second radiation unit comprises a second flat metal plate and a second radiation array arranged on the second flat metal plate, the third radiation unit comprises a third flat metal plate and a third radiation array arranged on the third flat metal plate, and the fourth radiation unit comprises a fourth flat metal plate and a fourth radiation array arranged on the fourth flat metal plate. The waveguide slotted array antenna has the advantages of low sidelobes and low cost while ensuring broad bands and high gains, and can be made small.
