Abstract

The present invention discloses a large-broadband and large-angle continuous scanning optically controlling phased array antenna receiving device and method, belonging to the technical field of microwave photons. The device and the method employ a cascading microring with anti-resonance working to form a delay continuous regulation and control subunit, employs an optical switch to switch waveguides with different lengths to form a delay discrete regulation and control subunit, and an optical delay unit formed by the delay continuous regulation and control subunit and the delay discrete regulation and control subunit is configured to provide delay compensation required by receiving large-broadband and large-angle continuous scanning phased-array antenna microwave signals. The electro-optical phase modulation is employed to achieve photovoltaic conversion of the antenna receiving microwave signals, avoid usage of an offset point control circuit and simplify the system structure. The optical single side band filtering is employed to reduce the requirement for the delay unit broadband, the difference balance photoelectric detection is employed to effectively reduce the common-mode noise and improve the system performances.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave photonics, and relates to a large bandwidth, large angle, continuous scanning optical control phased array antenna receiving device and method. Background technique [0002] Optically controlled phased array antennas can overcome the inherent aperture effect and transit time limitations of traditional phased array antennas based on electrical phase shifters, and have significant advantages in achieving large bandwidth and large angle scanning. Technology and other fields have broad application prospects. In practical applications, especially in the process of microwave signal reception, the optically controlled phased array antenna should be able to receive signals within a wider range of receiving angles without spatial blind spots, which requires the optical delay in the optically controlled phased array antenna. The time unit can not only provide a large enough delay compensation amount, but...
