AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In addition, the radio frequency electronic beamforming network is huge in size, and the phase of the radio frequency signal controlled by the phase shifter is prone to beam offset, and the instantaneous bandwidth of the signal is limited by the aperture transit time. To resist anti-radiation missile attacks and solve the problem of multi-target imaging, phased array radar must use broadband signals with large instantaneous bandwidth

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave photonics, in particular to a beam scanning optically controlled phased array radar based on an optical switch, which can realize rapid wavelength switching. Background technique [0002] The beam forming angle of the optically controlled phased array radar is determined by the wavelength of the light. Therefore, the scanning rate of the angle depends on the speed of wavelength switching. With the development and progress of phased array radar in the military, fast scanning rate has become an increasingly important requirement. [0003] Many optically controlled phased array beamforming schemes have been proposed at home and abroad. However, these schemes have many disadvantages. First, the beam switching time of phased array radar is limited by the wavelength switching time of the laser. Usually, the frequency-sweeping laser is composed of a fast tunable The optical filter is composed of a bro...
