Features of formation of the patterns of a monopulse active phased array antenna with a dome lens

A method for the control of the transmission coefficients of antenna elements of a system comprising an active phased array antenna (APAA) and a dome lens, which ensures formation of a deep boresight null of the elevation difference pattern, is proposed. The effect of the control method on the characteristics of receiving monopulse channels of the APAA depending on the intrinsic noise of antenna elements is analyzed. The results of the well-known theory of reception of a nonplane wave by an antenna with continuous aperture are extended to the case of an array antenna.     

有源相控阵天线的近场校准

为实现对相控阵天线的校准,降低幅相误差和阵元失效对天线性能的影响,提出了一种考虑互耦效应的近场校准方法。在利用近场扫描法完成逐一通道校准的基础上,使用旋转矢量法进行二次校准。在应用旋转矢量法（ REV)时,为使被测信号的变化明显,将大规模相控阵天线分为中间、边缘区域进行分区校准。通过二次校准可判定阵元是否失效,提高相控阵天线的幅相一致性;通过分区校准减小阵元间互耦的影响,缩短校准时间。仿真结果表明：此方法用于大型相控阵的校准具有较高的准确性,可改善校准结果。

A new active phased array antenna for mobile direct broadcastingsatellite reception

This paper represents a new active phase array antenna for a Ku-band mobile service that will be possible with satellite broadcasting. The main idea for the antenna is to use minimum active array elements with cost-effective one-dimensional subarrays with an inclined pencil beam structure for a 34 dBi gain. For this antenna, we also used the squint beam tracking algorithm. This tracking gives a different way to the traditional monopulse tracking method in tracking capability. The electronic scanning angle of the beam peak in this antenna is over ±12° wide only with 20 phase shifter elements for its scan ranges. This antenna with the attractive hybrid-tracking concept has about 142 times less array elements than antennas with a two-dimensional array

Microstrip antenna phased array with electromagnetic bandgap substrate

Uniplanar compact electromagnetic bandgap (UC-EBG) substrate has been proven to be an effective measure to reduce surface wave excitation in printed antenna geometries. This paper investigates the performance of a microstrip antenna phased array embedded in an UC-EBG substrate. The results show a reduction in mutual coupling between elements and provide a possible solution to the "blind spots" problem in phased array applications with printed elements. A novel and efficient UC-EBG array configuration is proposed. A probe fed patch antenna phased array of 7/spl times/5 elements on a high dielectric constant substrate was designed, built and tested. Simulation and measurement results show improvement in the active return loss and active pattern of the array center element. The tradeoffs used to obtain optimum performance are discussed.

液晶相控阵作为一种新型的可编程相位调制器件,可实现小角度范围内的光束偏转。但由于液晶相控阵制作工艺难度大、且受温度及大气扰动等影响,使得光束偏转系统实际偏转角与预期偏转角之间存在一定误差。为了提高液晶相控阵光束偏转精度,本文提出了一种基于分数阶PI~λD~μ控制器的光束偏转闭环控制回路。CCD作为探测元件,接收待测物体漫反射回来的光。采用斜射式三角测量法,计算预期偏转角与实际偏转角的偏转误差。将误差信号输入到分数阶PI~λD~μ控制器,控制器生成控制信号传给被控对象液晶相控阵,最终实现光束精确偏转。经仿真实验和性能分析,系统阶跃响应测试经过2步迭代达到稳定输出状态,闭环带宽为7.67rad/s,对幅值为1、频率为1的正弦扰动信号系统抑制比为-18.06dB。验证了分数阶PI~λD~μ控制算法能够快速地抑制扰动和噪声,且扰动抑制效果好,稳定性高。     

Peculiarities of using space-time multi-frequency signals for fast electronic scanning in radars with active phased antenna array

Peculiarities of using space-time multi-frequency signals, formed by the transmitting active phased antenna array of the radar with superfast electronic scanning of angular coordinate are considered. Connection of the signals’ structure, their spectral and correlation properties with the parameter of multi-frequency modulation in the antenna array and its characteristics is discovered. It is shown that the use of spaced in frequency complex partial signals in the elements of transmitting array and the selection of the corresponding modulation laws provides synthesis (restoration) of directional properties of the transmitting antenna with minimal losses and low side lobes in the angular observation sector in the receiver by means of correlation processing of the echoed signals.
