摘要： In this paper, we report on an optical tolerance analysis of the submillimeter atmospheric multi-beam limb sounder, STEAMR. Physical optics and ray-tracing methods were used to quantify and separate errors in beam pointing and distortion due to re?ector misalignment and primary re?ector surface deformations. Simulations were performed concurrently with the manufacturing of a multi-beam demonstrator of the relay optical system which shapes and images the beams to their corresponding receiver feed horns. Results from Monte Carlo simulations show that the inserts used for re?ector mounting should be positioned with an overall accuracy better than 100 m ( 1/10 wavelength). Analyses of primary re?ector surface deformations show that a deviation of magnitude 100 m can be tolerable before deployment, whereas the corresponding variations should be less than 30 m during operation. The most sensitive optical elements in terms of misalignments are found near the focal plane. This localized sensitivity is attributed to the off-axis nature of the beams at this location. Post-assembly mechanical measurements of the re?ectors in the demonstrator show that alignment better than 50 m could be obtained.

A Low-Profile and High-Gain Frequency Beam Steering sub-THz Antenna Enabled by Silicon Micromachining
摘要： A very low-profile sub-THz high-gain frequency beam steering antenna, enabled by silicon micromachining, is reported for the first time in this paper. The operation bandwidth of the antenna spans from 220 GHz to 300 GHz providing a simulated field of view of 56?. The design is based on a dielectric filled parallel-plate waveguide (PPW) leaky-wave antenna fed by a pillbox. The pillbox, a two-level PPW structure, has an integrated parabolic reflector to generate a planar wave front. The device is enabled by two extreme aspect ratio, 16 mm x 16 mm large perforated membranes, which are only 30 μm thick, that provide the coupling between the two PPWs and form the LWA. The micromachined low-loss PPW structure results in a measured average radiation efficiency of ?1 dB and a maximum gain of 28.5 dBi with an input reflection coefficient below ?10 dB. The overall frequency beam steering frontend is extremely compact (24 mm x 24 mm x 0.9 mm) and can be directly mounted on a standard WM-864 waveguide flange. The design and fabrication challenges of such high performance antenna in the sub-THz frequency range are described and the measurement results of two fabricated prototypes are reported and discussed.

[Institution of Engineering and Technology 12th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2018) - London, UK (9-13 April 2018)] 12th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2018) - Low-pass Frequency Selective Surface for a Dual-band Gyro-multiplier Characterized by THz-TDS
摘要： This work investigates the performance of a low-pass frequency selective surface (FSS) fabricated from perforated hole array on a copper plate for the use in a dual-band high power gyro-multiplier. The output beam from the high power gyro-multiplier contains signals at two separating bands carrying peak power up to 2 kW. The frequency separating components therefore are required to stand high power and produce low insertion loss. Metallic perforated array is an ideal option to meet these requirements. Considering the fabrication accuracy, low-pass FSS is selected. The fabrication of the low-pass FSS is based on precision milling technology. The performance of the FSS is evaluated using a terahertz time domain spectroscopy.
