Patent EP-1563568-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SAGER MADS
IPC: H01Q5/378
Filed: 2002-11-20
Abstract: An antenna ( 11 ) includes a patch antenna element ( 22 ) capacitively coupled to a load patch ( 27 ). A switch ( 33 ) connects the load patch ( 27 ) to one of one or more strip lines ( 35, 37, 40 ), each of which has a different length. Each strip lines causes the load patch ( 27 ) to have a different impedance, with one causing a short circuit, one causing an open circuit, and one causing an impedance in between these extremes. Different impedances of the load patch ( 27 ) cause different frequencies of operation of the antenna patch ( 22 ) by virtue of the capacitive coupling therebetween. The antenna ( 11 ) is thereby tuneable to three separate frequencies. Other frequency bands are unaffected by virtue of the location of the load patch ( 27 ) relative to the antenna patch ( 22 ). By allowing tuning by way of controlling the impedance of the load patch ( 27 ), the antenna arrangement can be made smaller than a corresponding passive antenna operable at the same frequencies. By using an N throw switch, N strip lines of different lengths can be connected, each giving rise to a different operating frequency.

Abstract: A bi-directional, non-reciprocal optical filter 10, comprising a transversal filter 12, two
polarising beam splitters 14, 16, a Faraday rotator 18, and a photodetector 20. The
transversal filter 12 comprises two two polarisation, high-birefringence (Hi-Bi) optical
fibres 22, 24, and three polarisation state controllers 26, 28, 30 for rotating the
polarisation state of a received optical signal by an angle of  1 ,  2  and  3  respectively.
An optical signal input into port 1 is polarised in one polarisation state on leaving the
first polarising beam splitter 14. Transmission through the Faraday rotator 18 and the
first Hi-Bi fibre 22 causes the optical signal to degenerate into two orthogonally
polarised modes ( x, y ). These modes (x, y) are coupled into the second Hi-Bi fibre 24,
where each mode (x, y) degenerates into two orthogonally polarised modes, resulting in
four degenerated polarised modes ( x s   ,  x p   ,  y s   ,  y p   ). These four modes ( x s   ,  x p   ,  y s   ,  y p   ) are
coupled into each axis of the polarising beam splitter 16, forming four signal taps in
each axis. The taps in the slow axis are coherently combined by the photodetector 20
to form the output of the filter 10 at port 2.
