Problems solved by technology

The beamformer structure (the structure is the same as the non-recursive filter in the time domain) used in the existing precision tracking imaging radar is to carry out weighted summation of the element signals, and according to the space-time equivalence, it is necessary to form an extremely narrow beamwidth The number of array elements is very large
Moreover, the spectrum of the non-recursive filter has sidelobe interference, and the stopband ripple will affect the signal reception. At the same time, the formed beam is not ideal in bandwidth and resolution is not high, resulting in poor beamforming effect.
