Abstract

The invention provides a method for forming circular array antenna digital wave beams. Part of adjacent arrays in a circular array consisting of a plurality of arrays form a small circular array, a main wave beam extending outward along the centre of a circle is formed in the normal direction of the arrays in the center of the circular array, so that a circular array can be constructed by taking every array as a center so as to form a wave beam extending outward along the center of the circle, and the whole circular array can form a plurality of wave beams at equal intervals, which cover the 360-degree space; thus the circular array antenna digital wave beams are formed. The method solves the problems of the prior art, and the problems that a planar array antenna cannot simultaneously cover the 360-degree space, and the antenna beamwidth is increased along with the increment of a scanning angle and the antenna gain and angle measurement accuracy are reduced along with the increment of the scanning angle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a digital signal processing method and a circuit thereof, in particular to a circular array antenna digital beam forming method. Background technique [0002] At present, the phased array antenna is basically a planar array antenna. The planar array antenna has some disadvantages. The beam coverage is narrow, limited to within 120°. The antenna beam width increases with the increase of the scanning angle. The angle increases and decreases. The mutual coupling effect between the antenna elements is a function of the scan angle, and the standing wave of the antenna element changes with the increase of the scan angle. It is difficult to achieve wide-angle scan matching, and the antenna sidelobe level often increases with the increase of the scan angle. [0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a circular array antenna digital beamforming method that can overcome the above shortcomings to meet the needs of industrial applicati...
