Problems solved by technology

At present, the sampling interval of the far-field test of the existing technology needs to be less than 1 / 10 of the half-power beamwidth of the antenna to be tested. Far-field testing of antennas is inefficient
[0005] The sampling interval of the existing far-field antenna measurement is small, and the test efficiency of the far-field measurement is low. Objectively, there has been no proposal to increase the sampling interval in the antenna far-field measurement, improve the test efficiency, and not affect the far-field pattern of the antenna under test. A quick measure of accuracy

Embodiment 1

[0027] In the existing antenna far-field measurement methods, the sampling interval is often required to be less than 1 / 10 of the half-power beamwidth of the antenna to be measured. If the sampling interval is increased, the measured antenna radiation parameters will be inaccurate, resulting in measurement errors; reduce the sampling interval It will also reduce the test efficiency, especially in multi-channel measurement and frequency-sweeping antenna measurement, reducing the sampling interval will significantly reduce the test efficiency. So far, there is no effective solution to the problem of increasing the sampling interval in the antenna far-field measurement without affecting the accuracy of the antenna far-field pattern. Aiming at this problem, the present invention carries out experimental simulation and actual test, and proposes a fast measurement method for far-field pattern based on Fourier interpolation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a far-field pattern rapid measurement method based on Fourier interpolation, and solves the problem that the far-field measurement requires a small sampling interval to accurately reconstruct an antenna far-field pattern. The method comprises steps of determining the far-field distance of an antenna to be measured according to the far-field measurement condition of an antenna; determining a sampling interval by using a far-field measurement interval criterion of the antenna to be measured; sampling and measuring the amplitude and the phase of a radiation far field on a certain surface of the antenna, and calculating and obtaining the Fourier expansion coefficient and the far field pattern function of the far field of the antenna to be measured and the amplitude pattern and the phase pattern of the antenna to be measured in sequence, so that the rapid measurement of the far field pattern is realized. According to the method, the directional diagram with any small angle interval is quickly and accurately reconstructed based on the Fourier interpolation method of the band-limited periodic function, and the test efficiency is improved.he method comprises steps of The method is suitable for multi-channel, multi-beam and frequency sweeping tests, the number of sampling points can be greatly reduced, and the test efficiency is remarkably improved.
