ANTENNA ARRAY WITH SIGNAL PROCESSING Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC H01Q21/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for direct conversion of electromagnetic field energy of microwave band of radio waves into direct current. Essence of the invention lies in the fact that the antenna array with signal processing consists of M=2,3,4,… rows of linear dipoles lying in one plane and equidistant from each other by a distance that is multiple λ/2, wherein in each row there is N = 2,3,4,… vibrators each with length λ/2 distributed in such a way that in each of M rows ends of adjacent vibrators are connected to each other by direct current (N-1) diodes connected by direct current in series and unipolar, free ends of extreme vibrators M rows are connected to each other in parallel and unipolar and connected to antenna load, wherein outputs of each of (N-1)M diodes are shortened or extended to size λ/2, and ends of adjacent dipoles and diodes in each row are connected to each other at angle of 90°.

EFFECT: enabling reception by one antenna array of signals with both horizontal and vertical polarization.
