The present invention relates to a subarray-level distributed frequency-controlled array sidelobe suppression method based on an improved
genetic algorithm, and belongs to the field of array antenna
signal processing. The method uses an improved
genetic algorithm to simultaneously suppress the
grating lobes or high sidelobes of the distributed frequency-controlled array in the angle dimension and the distance dimension; the improved
genetic algorithm is a
niche genetic algorithm based on a pre-selection mechanism, and a competition mechanism is introduced between the parent and the
offspring. Only when the fitness value of the
offspring individual is higher than that of the parent individual, the
offspring individual can replace its parent individual accordingly, otherwise the parent individual is still retained in the next generation group, and the local and
global optimal solutions are optimized in the feasible solution space; and taboo search is introduced to speed up the convergence speed, avoid the genetic
algorithm from being premature and stagnant, and thus jump out of the local optimal solution. The present invention improves the optimization results of the subarray position and subarray
frequency deviation of the subarray-level distributed frequency-controlled array, and achieves better sidelobe suppression results from the distance dimension and the angle dimension.
