Abstract

Polarization converter is used in the applications of the polar SAR observations. There exists coupling between TE and TM modes when plane wave is oblique incident on the surface of dielectric periodic structure, the single TE or TM polarized wave incident will cause TE and TM mixed transmission wave. In some proper incident conditions, complete polarization conversion can be realized between TE and TM mode. In this work, a design of complete polarization converter by using dielectric periodic structure is designed and it is carefully investigated by a method which combines the multimode network theory with the rigorous mode matching method. We revealed TE/TM complete polarization conversion characteristics of dielectric periodic structure, and also analyzed the effects of structure parameters. These investigations provide important guideline for accurate designing new millimeter wave polarization converters.
