DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF A DUAL-BAND IRIS POLARIZER

Abstract

The structure that transforms a linear polarized signal into right-hand or left-hand circularly polarized signals is called a polarizer. In this study, a dual-band waveguide polarizer used in satellite communications is presented. The waveguide polarizer is designed using iris structures on a square waveguide. The purpose of the polarizer is to transmit the ±45° tilted linearly polarized signal at its input to the output as a right-hand or left-hand circularly polarized wave, and vice versa. At the input of the polarizer, a transition is designed between the WR42 waveguide and the square waveguide. At the output stage, a transition from square waveguide to circular waveguide is designed. In this paper, the design steps of both the polarizer and the transition sections, the optimization parameters, and simulation results are presented in full detail. The simulations are performed with a commercial electromagnetic simulation software, CST Studio Suite. The design operates within the Ka-band, specifically at 17.2 – 21.2 GHz and 27.5 – 31 GHz frequency bands. The insertion loss of the iris polarizer is <0.05 dB, the return loss is >23 dB, and the phase difference is less than 15° around 90° for both bands.
