EN YÜKSEK GÜCE BAĞLI OTOMATİK YÖNLENEN ANTEN SİSTEMİ TASARIMI

Year 2025, Volume: 3 Issue: 1, 1 - 10

Abstract

Haberleşme sistemlerinde alıcı ve verici antenlerin birbirine karşı fiziksel konumları, haberleşme verimini etkileyen önemli parametrelerden birisidir. Bu çalışmada, kablosuz haberleşme sistemlerinde kullanılan alıcı antenin hizalamasını otomatikleştiren iki eksenli bir yönlendirme sistemi sunulmuştur. Bu sayede, haberleşme veriminin artırılması amaçlanmıştır. Sistem, bir alıcı ve bir verici anten arasında en yüksek sinyal gücünü elde etmek için alıcı anteni döndüren mekanik bir yapıya sahiptir. Alıcı antenin en yüksek güce yönlenmesi, Python programlama dili temelli geliştirilen bir kullanıcı arayüzü ile kontrol edilen bir vektörel ağ analizörü (VNA) aracılığıyla sağlanmıştır. Geliştirilen bilgisayar arayüzü sayesinde, kullanıcı tarafından anten yönelim açısı belirlenebilmektedir. Ayrıca, verici antenin saçılma parametreleri analiz edilerek en verimli açıya otomatik olarak yönlenmektedir. Bu çalışma sayesinde anten ölçüm sistemlerine bir alternatif olması için anten ışıma örüntüsü elde edilebilmektedir. Çalışmada, Friis yayılma formülü göz önünde bulundurulmuş ve sistemin performansı 1,8, 2,5, 4 GHz frekanslarında test edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, otomatik yönlenme sisteminin istenen doğruluğu ve verimliliği sağlayarak antenlerin maksimum güç iletimine odaklandığını göstermektedir.

DESIGN OF A SELF-DIRECTED ANTENNA SYSTEM BASED ON THE MAXIMUM POWER

Year 2025, Volume: 3 Issue: 1, 1 - 10

Abstract

In communication systems, the physical alignment of the transmitting and receiving antennas is a critical parameter that affects communication efficiency. This study presents a two-axis rotation system that automates the alignment of the receiver antenna used in wireless communication systems. The aim is to increase the communication efficiency. The system has a mechanical structure that rotates the receiver antenna to obtain the highest signal strength between a receiver and a transmitter antennas. The alignment of the receiver antenna to the highest power is achieved through a vector network analyzer (VNA) controlled by the Python programming language based a graphical user interface based. The developed computer interface allows the user to define the antenna orientation angle. Additionally, the transmitter antenna’s scattering parameters are analyzed to automatically direct the receiver to the most efficient angle. With this study, an alternative to antenna measurement systems can be provided to obtain antenna radiation patterns. In this study, the Friis transmission equation were considered, and the system’s performance was tested at frequencies of 1.8, 2.5, and 4 GHz. The results demonstrate that the automatic steering system ensures the desired accuracy and efficiency, allowing the antennas to focus on maximum power transmission.
