Abstract:
The article describes the experimental study of one of techniques of implementation of a machine-vision illuminant operating within the millimetre (sub-THz) band and forming a directional radiation pattern (DRP) with parameters compliant with the specifics of functioning of radio vision systems. In view of this, experimental research of the method of formation of a DRP configuration of a millimetre (sub-THz) machine vision system illuminant based on a conical horn radiator adapted to receiver field of view was studied experimentally using a quasi-optic system. The results of the study of the DRP configuration of such illuminant designed using a quasi-optic system installed in the aperture of a conical horn radiator are presented.
