Wired Gap • Introduction • Presentation of the 3 parts • Modifications and adaptation of the module of reception • Amplifier • Retransmission • Conclusion
Introduction • Subject: realisation of a wired gap • Use: retransmission of satellites signals in non-covered areas • Low-cost project
Modifications and adaptation • Use of an existant parabola reception module: • Low cost than creating a new one • Easy to extract signals • Adaptation of this module: • Conception • Simulation
Modifications • Horizontal polarization: • Implantation of a transistor to amplify the signal • Add of electric wire to supply power • Extraction of the signal
Modifications • Vertical polarization: • Implantation of a transistor to amplify the signal • Add of electric wire to supply power • Extraction of the signal
Modifications • Output for horizontal and vertical polarization signals
Modifications • Power supply for both of transistors
Adaptation • Necessity to export the signal in 50Ω at the entry of amplifier part: • Conception • Simulation • Realisation
Adaptation - Conception • Adaptation for horizontal polarization: =>Difficulty because very disadapted
Adaptation - Conception • Adaptation for vertical polarization: • Easier than horizontal polarization • Smaller circuit than previous
- Low noise amplification - Compensation of losses in free space - very low power involved (some pW) Amplifier – Simulation part
Amplifier – Simulation part Gain Return loss
Amplifier – Simulation part Gain Return loss
Amplifier – Conception part • Conception of the mask and the circuit • Test of the transistor at IETR • Analysis of results : • comparisonwiththeory • Calculation of the number of levels • Conception of the amplifier (whenresultswereworthwhile) • Test of the amplifier
Amplifier – Conception part Circuit of the amplifier
Amplifier – Conception part • Final results , three solutions: • Retry with co-planar technology • Modify the position of components • Change of substrate : => drawback: the cost increase
Retransmission antenna • Aim : • To emit (or to broadcast) a signal in the bandwith from 10,7 to 12,7 Ghz • Solution considered first : • Simple patch antenna • Double polarization • Adopted solution : • Patch antenna network • Double polarization
Simple patch antenna • Advantages : • Simplicity of the circuit • Simplicity of adjustments • Speed of simulation • Drawback : • Isotropic antenna
Patch antenna network • Advantage : • Directed radiation diagram • Drawbacks : • Complex circuit • Very heavy simulation
Realization steps • Calibration of the antenna's characteristics (only one patch) • Installation of the network • Simulations and results
Conclusion • Low cost and important gain • Easy to use • No visual pollution
