Abstract
Analysis of the experience of modern struggle shows that the success of combat missions to sone extent depends on the timely detection of information from communication channels, in particular, radio relay communication lines. Increasing the detection range of the radio monitoring station can be achieved by using a mirror parabolic antenna with a radiation in the form of a conical horn with low losses due to the use of a matching device. The constructive decisions of matching devices are analysed and it is determined that most of them are resonant. The substantiation and selection of the design of the dielectric transformer with the length ( – wavelength in a round waveguide, m) for coordination of the conical horn irradiator in the whole band of its operating frequencies for the wave type is carried out. To achieve the goal, the methods of antenna theories and electrodynamics were used, in particular the theory of long lines. A mathematical apparatus has been developed for calculating the parameters of a dielectric transformer (the length ). It is stated that its impedance must be equal to the modulus of load resistance. The calculation of the value of the active transformed resistance according to the formula (10) always gives a positive value of the input resistance, the value of which is greater the greater the reactive load reactance. The reliability of the obtained formulas is confirmed by the convergence of units and graphs of dependences of the changes of the outer radius of the coaxial power line (its impedance), as well as the thickness and place of inclusion on the matching dielectric transformer . The practical significance of the research results lies in the possibility of improving the matching of a horn antenna based on a circular waveguide in the range of its operating frequencies for a certain type of wave.
