Abstract

The invention discloses a conformal phased array antenna pattern synthesis method applied to an unmanned aerial vehicle. The conformal phased array antenna pattern synthesis method comprises the following steps of: acquiring a general pattern of conformal phased array antennas, and acquiring an initial optimization value of the amplitude Amn of each antenna unit; optimizing the initial value of the Amn by virtue of a genetic algorithm; and acquiring a conformal phased array antenna pattern with a low side lobe characteristic. According to the invention, a plane phased array optimization method is used for quickly obtaining the amplitude of each unit and the approximate value of each phase; and as a side lobe hunting zone is reduced by designating side lobe areas, the optimization speed ofthe genetic algorithm is improved greatly. The method disclosed by the invention also can be applied to the low side lobe pattern synthesis of any conformal phased array of the antenna units projected on a plane.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a comprehensive method for the direction diagram of a conformal phased array antenna applied to an unmanned aerial vehicle, belonging to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles. Background technique [0002] The phased array antenna has many advantages: high system power efficiency, antenna shaping, fast electronic scanning tracking speed, good stealth performance and other technical advantages. If the antenna elements are distributed on the surface of the body and are the same as the outline of the body, a conformal phased array antenna is formed. The conformal phased array antenna has more advantages than the planar phased array: the installation volume is small, the aerodynamic performance of the aircraft is not affected, and the scanning range is larger. [0003] Installing a conformal phased array antenna with a circular frustum structure in the front of the UAV's nose can greatly improve the detection and stealth...
