In this paper, a chamfer distribution antenna array is designed to generate a deflecting circular-polarized vortex beam carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode. When the vortex beam is designed with a deflection angle, the sidelobe of the vortex beam will deteriorate. In order to solve this problem, an optimized array design is presented in this paper. Inspired by the Chebyshev distribution array synthesis method, the antenna elements in the four corners of the antenna array are cut out to realize the chamfer distribution array. Therefore, the sidelobe level of the deflected vortex beam can be effectively suppressed. Moreover, a simplified feeding network is designed to reduce the feeding network complexity by using circularly polarized structural center antenna element. The designed antenna array is simulated, fabricated, and measured at center frequency of 4.25 GHz in C-band. The far-field radiation pattern of the deflected vortex beam and the near E-field OAM vortex beam distribution are simulated and measured to verify the effectiveness of the proposed design method for sidelobe suppression array. |
