This paper describes the design and performance of a conical Potter horn antenna which can generate sum or difference far field patterns suitable for monopulse tracking applications. The antenna consists of a horn antenna fed with a metal post loaded polarizer which is energised by suitably phased 50-/spl Omega/ matched coaxial probes. The prototype demonstrator designed here operates in the frequency range 8-8.6GHz with sum and difference patterns obtained by using a very simple phasing circuit. At 8.5GHz, the gain of the sum pattern is 18.6dB and the in the difference pattern is 26dB at boresight. 相似文献

Design versions of the phased array antenna (PAA) of an object coordinate meter are considered. The array antenna forms the sum radiation pattern and two difference patterns ensuring measuring of the object angular coordinates. The problem of the phase-only synthesis of the PAA sum amplitude pattern with a given shape is solved under the condition of keeping the angular orientation of direction-finding nulls of difference patterns in the pattern scanning direction. Design relationships are derived and a pattern synthesis method based on numerical minimization of a nonlinear functional is described. Synthesis examples are presented. 相似文献

A partial phase-only nulling (PPON) algorithm has been developed and evaluated on a 496-element monopulse phased array antenna system which employs five-bit phase shifters. Using this PPON algorithm allows nulls in the far-field pattern to be steered to the desired directions for a phased array equipped with low-resolution phase shifters to perform simultaneous nulling in the sum and two difference patterns in the environment of multiple jammers. Simulated and experimental patterns are illustrated 相似文献

A design technique for an embedded microstrip corporate feed is presented. The aim of the design is to shape each corporate feed junction to achieve a tapered and in-phase output current distribution. From this, a Dolph-Chebyshev array sum pattern may be constructed. In the experiments, the designed corporate feed is used to excite a five-element equispaced linear array of overlay microstrip dipoles. It is found both theoretically and experimentally that a 20-dB Dolph-Chebyshev broadside sum pattern can be synthesized in the H-plane at 8.5 GHz. Mutual coupling among the dipoles is included in this analysis. The pattern degradation due to manufacturing tolerances on the alignment between the feed network and the dipole array is discussed 相似文献

Most adaptive array research has not directly addressed the problem of nulling in a monopulse antenna. Placing a null in the sum does not automatically place a null in the difference pattern and vice versa. Nulls may be placed in the two patterns with the use of separate adaptive weights and controls for the sum and difference channels. However, this requires two sets of adaptive hardware for one antenna. A technique for simultaneous hulling in the sum and difference channels of a monopulse phased array using one set of adaptive weights shared by both channels is described. First, the technique is described for amplitude and phase nulling, then for phase only hulling. In each case, the ability to simultaneously null in both channels with one set of variable weights is theoretically demonstrated. 相似文献

Pattern nulling in difference pattern by amplitude control 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A method of placing nulls in directions of any unwanted radio frequency interference (RFI) sources in the difference pattern of a phased array by controlling the current amplitudes is discussed. Thus one can now achieve pattern nulling in both the sum and difference patterns by amplitude control and can therefore carry out the minimization of RFI noise independently of the maximization of the desired signal. The method therefore provides an efficient alternative approach to the design of adaptive phased arrays. 相似文献

A recently developed phased-array feed configuration offering significant advantages over the conventional space, corporate, and series feed techniques is described. This technique, referred to as the "flat feed," allows power division for monopulse sum and difference pattern illumination functions in a feed depth of less than a half-wavelength with low loss. The technique used to extract energy from the power divider, which consists in part of a radial transmission line, results, in its simplest configuration, in a circular grid of antenna elements. Relations governing the circular grid array geometry design are derived which relate the angular locations of attenuated grating lobes to the spacing between the rings of radiating elements. ExperimentalS -band hardware, built to prove the feed technique, is described. It includes a multimode launcher with measured coupling between circular wavegulde sum (TM_{01} ) and difference (TE_{11} ) modes of less than -37 dB; a seven-ring 1:195 radial power divider measured across a 10-percent band to have insertion loss of 0.1 dB and rms phase and amplitude deviations of less than3.5deg and 0.47 dB; a 144-element array whose measured sum and difference beam radiation patterns are compared with calculated patterns for scan angles out to60deg and whose sum port VSWR, measured across a 10-percent band, was under 1.8:1 with the array steered to broadside, and under 1.5:1 for other scan angles out to60deg . 相似文献

A pattern synthesis technique for low sidelobe difference and scanned beams in small phased arrays is presented. The approach is based on adaptive array theory and is a development of a technique used for beam synthesis in an ideal, λ/2 spaced, isotropic array. The method has been applied to measured element pattern data from a five element linear array, which includes the effects of pattern corruption by mutual coupling. The successful synthesis of low sidelobe sum and difference beams are demonstrated, with the look direction on and scanned off boresight 相似文献

A primary feed network for doubly curved shaped-beam reflector antennas is described which allows simultaneous signal reception on two distinct elevation plane patterns such that the underside falloff separation between a fixed lower beam and a higher beam can be substantially varied in a lossless manner. A three-element feed array is employed wherein two elements of the array are interconnected by means of a sum-difference hybrid. The sum port generates the fixed low beam while the difference port generates an orthogonal beam pattern suitable for RF combining with an independent high beam generated by the third array element. Adjustment of the combining amplitude and phase relationships permits the variation of the underside falloff separation. The fixed low beam is, of course, also used for transmission at high power. Design parameters for a typical surveillance radar application axe discussed for a linearly polarized case. Calculated antenna patterns and free-space coverage diagrams are presented. The complexities of extending the feed network concept to handle switchable linear/circular polarization cases and an integral directional beacon pattern for L band systems are indicated. 相似文献

Monopulse Networks for Series Feeding an Array Antenna 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Series networks for feeding an array antenna are attractive because they can be designed compactly. A series "ladder" network is available which is particularly applicable for feeding a monopulse array antenna since it has complete independent control of the sum and difference excitations, minimum dissipative loss, and physical symmetry. This network consists of primary and secondary transmission lines feeding two sets of directional couplers that are interconnected to resemble a ladder. To obtain physical symmetry, the ladder is fed at the center by two hybrid junctions and an additional directional coupler. An experimental array fed by a ladder network was fabricated and tested. The design objectives of 25 dB sidelobe suppression for the sum and difference mode patterns were achieved. 相似文献

A 94 GHz planar monopulse tracking receiver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper describes the design, fabrication and measurements of a 94 GHz integrated monopulse receiver with IF beam control. The receiver is integrated on a single chip, and is based on a 23 GHz local oscillator driving four separate phase-coherent 94 GHz subharmonic mixers. The resulting IF signals are takeoff-chip to a IF monopulse processor, which produces sum and difference monopulse patterns for the elevation and azimuth coordinates. Voltage-controlled phase-shifters in each of the IF channels allow the monopulse patterns to be electronically steered. All of the receiver circuits are realized using uniplanar coplanar-waveguide (CPW), slot lines and coplanar striplines (CPS). These features result in a compact, low-cost system suitable for tracking systems operating in poor visibility conditions, as well as in collision avoidance receivers for automotive applications. To our knowledge, this work represents the first demonstration of a fully integrated millimeter-wave subsystem to date 相似文献

The time required to compute radiation patterns of linear arrays given in a form of a Fourier sum depends on the number of array elements. In this communication, a fast algorithm for computing Fourier sums is presented. The radiation pattern given by this sum can be replaced by an infinite series whose terms depend on the envelope of the excitation function, w (x ), and its derivatives at the edges of the linear array. In cases when w (x ) has a few nonzero derivatives, this infinite series can be replaced by a finite sum which can be evaluated more rapidly than the original Fourier sum, making the method especially suitable for real-time applications. The effect of critical point is also investigated. Some sample case studies are included 相似文献

An antenna pattern correction technique is presented that is based on an adaptive array algorithm. In the method, the antenna pattern of the antenna under test (AUT) is measured several times at different positions in the quiet-zone. The corrected antenna pattern is obtained by taking a weighted average of the measured patterns. An array synthesis algorithm is employed for obtaining the averaging weights at each rotation angle of the AUT. The weights are adapted specifically for a given AUT. The adaptive array correction technique is demonstrated in a hologram based compact antenna test range (CATR) at 310 GHz with both a synthetic antenna and a physical test antenna. For verification, the accuracy provided by the adaptive array correction technique is compared to that provided by uniform weighting. 相似文献

Circular switched parasitic dipole arrays are designed in this letter, using the method of genetic algorithms. Three possible configurations are proposed: a simple circular array with one element driven and the others short-circuited, and two implementations of double-ring array. In the latter case, an inner ring of parasitic elements is added. Electronic steering is achieved through switching of the elements by circular permutation. The aim of the design is to obtain a desired radiation pattern, and to achieve impedance matching of the single active element. The arrays are simulated with the SuperNEC2.4 package and the induced emf method. Double-ring arrays offer better patterns and more accurate impedance matching than simple circular arrays at 1.8 GHz. The designed arrays achieve SWR values below 2.5 from 1.7 to 1.9 GHz. The radiation patterns remain satisfying in an average bandwidth equal to 6.5% of the carrier frequency. 相似文献
