A Multi-Subarray Antenna Beam Switching Method Based on Maximization of Received Signal Power

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-sub-array antenna beam switching method based on maximization of power of a receiving signal. The method comprises the following steps of 1, establishing an array factor directional diagram model of a multi-sub-array phased array antenna; 2, acquiring strength g (0, 0, alpha, f1) of the receiving signal of an array factor directional diagram of the sub-array phased array antennas in a target satellite direction, and then computing power of the receiving signal of the array factor; 3, establishing an optimization model maxS by taking the maximal power P (alpha, f1, L) of the receiving signal after compensation of a delay line as a target and using the length of each sub-array delay line as a variable, and thus acquiring the length Lq of each sub-array delay line and a corresponding elevation angle beta aiming a satellite when compensation is performed by the delay line; and 4, computing a value of an elevation angle [alpha]n of each partition node, and then implementing multi-sub-array antenna beam switching according to the length Lq of each sub-array delay line, the corresponding elevation angle beta aiming the satellite when compensation is performed by the delay line and the value of the elevation angle [alpha]n of the partition node. According to the method of the invention, a delay error is compensated by the delay line, occurrence of the problem that the power of the receiving signal of the antenna is reduced caused by frequency variation is inhibited, and the cost is low.

Problems solved by technology

The phase shift value of the phase shifter has nothing to do with the signal frequency, and the change of the signal frequency will cause the antenna beam pointing to shift, which will lead to the decrease of the received signal power

The delay line, also known as the delayer, has the same characteristics as the group delay. When the real-time delayer is used to compensate the spatial wave path difference, although the antenna bandwidth can be effectively improved, the price is very expensive.
