      • 摘要: X型扑翼微型飞行器(micro aerial vehicles, MAV)天线通常采用机身装配,造成天线体积小、通信性能不足,本文采用柔性电子技术设计MAV扑翼集成天线,扩大了天线展开面积,提高了飞行器结构空间利用率。为提高超薄介质基底的天线增益,基于Fabry-Perot谐振腔理论,在X型扑翼下表面集成3.50 GHz、4.68 GHz和5.80 GHz三频微带缝隙天线,上表面集成S型超表面结构,实现柔性低剖面、多频带、高增益特性。仿真和测试结果显示,扑翼集成Fabry-Perot谐振天线厚度为0.03 mm,在5°~90°扑翼振动下,在谐振频率处平均增益分别提升了2.08 dB、3.91 dB和2.16 dB,平均最大增益提升了4.59 dB。本文提出的扑翼集成Fabry-Perot谐振天线设计方法,显著解决了MAV天线小型化与高性能通信之间的矛盾,有效验证了在动态扑翼环境下实现稳定高增益的可行性,为提升微型扑翼飞行器的远距离通信能力提供了有效的解决方案。

         

        Abstract: The antenna of X-type flapping wing micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) is usually assembled on the fuselage, resulting in small antenna size and insufficient communication performance. Therefore, flexible electronic technology is studied to design a flapping wing integrated antenna for MAVs, expand the antenna deployment area, and improve the spatial utilization of the aircraft structure. To improve the antenna gain of ultra-thin dielectric substrates, based on the Fabry Perot resonant cavity theory, a 3.50 GHz, 4.68 GHz, and 5.80 GHz tri band microstrip slot antenna is integrated on the lower surface of an X-shaped flapping wing, and an S-shaped metasurface structure is integrated on the upper surface to achieve flexible low profile, multi band, and high gain characteristics. The simulation and test results show that the thickness of the flapping wing integrated Fabry Perot resonant antenna is 0.03mm. Under flapping wing vibration from 5 ° to 90 °, the average gain enhancement at the resonant frequency is 2.08 dB, 3.91 dB, and 2.16 dB, respectively, with an average maximum gain enhancement of 4.59 dB. The proposed flapping wing integrated Fabry-Perot resonant antenna design approach significantly addresses the conflict between miniaturization and high-performance communication for MAV antennas. It effectively demonstrates the feasibility of achieving stable high gain under dynamic flapping conditions, providing an effective solution for enhancing the long-range communication capability of micro flapping-wing aerial vehicles.
