Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of microwave component technology, and in particular to a polarization reconfiguration dual-channel receiving module. Background Technology
[0002] The receiver module is the core component of a multi-functional phased array system. A typical multi-functional phased array system has radar and reconnaissance functions. In different application scenarios, radar and reconnaissance can operate simultaneously in H-polarization, V-polarization, and 45° oblique polarization. Currently, it is difficult to use a single receiver module to meet the requirements of simultaneous operation of multiple functions in different polarization modes. If two receiver modules are used, the equipment size will be large. At present, time-division multiplexing is mainly used domestically and internationally to achieve simultaneous radar and reconnaissance operation of multi-functional phased array systems. This technology has the following main shortcomings:
[0003] 1. Radar reception and reconnaissance reception have different polarization requirements, and they do not meet their respective polarization requirements when operating simultaneously.
[0004] 2. Each receiver module has only one phase shifter. Due to the different beam directions, radar reception and reconnaissance reception can only operate in a time-division manner.
[0005] 3. The use of two sets of receiving modules results in a large number of devices, which puts great pressure on the integrated design and cost of the phased array system;
[0006] Given the current status and shortcomings of multifunctional phased array receiver modules both domestically and internationally, there is an urgent need to research a polarization-reconfigurable dual-channel receiver module to address the requirement of simultaneous radar and reconnaissance reception, with each operating in a different polarization. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to propose a polarization reconfiguration dual-channel receiving module that can meet the requirements of different polarizations, amplitude control, and beam pointing when both radar and reconnaissance functions are working simultaneously, with a small number of devices and independent polarization, amplitude, and phase control.
[0008] The technical solution to achieve the objective of this invention is: a polarization reconfiguration dual-channel receiving module, including a receiving component, a switching power divider network, a first and second amplitude phase control chip, and a first and second down-conversion component;
[0009] Six H-polarized signals and six V-polarized signals enter the receiving component, where they are amplified and limited by low noise before being output to the switching power divider network. After passing through the switching power divider network, two signals with different polarizations are formed. The two signals can operate independently and simultaneously in H-polarization, V-polarization, and 45° slant polarization. The two signals pass through the first and second amplitude and phase control chips, respectively. After amplitude and phase control are performed according to the requirements of radar and reconnaissance for amplitude and phase control, the signals are output to the first and second down-conversion components, respectively, and converted to intermediate frequency output. This enables radar and reconnaissance to receive signals simultaneously in different polarizations.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages: (1) By integrating the switching power divider network into the conventional receiving component, the simultaneous operation of radar reconnaissance can be achieved without the need to make a completely new design to the receiving component circuit; (2) The receiving module has the advantages of independent polarization control, independent amplitude control, and independent phase control, which can meet the requirements of different polarization, amplitude control, and beam pointing when radar and reconnaissance work simultaneously, and the number of devices is small.

[0048] Example
[0049] This embodiment of a polarization reconfiguration dual-channel receiving module consists of 6 receiving components (HR1~HR6), 6 receiving components (VR1~VR6), a set of switching power divider network, 2 sets of amplitude and phase control chips, and 2 sets of downconversion components. The 6 H-polarized signals are respectively fed into HR1~HR6 for low-noise amplification and limiting before being output to the switching power divider network. The 6 V-polarized signals are respectively fed into VR1~VR6 for low-noise amplification and limiting before being output to the switching power divider network. The receiving components and downconversion components are of conventional design. After passing through the switching power divider network, the above signals are respectively formed into 2 signals. The 2 signals can operate independently and simultaneously in H-polarization, V-polarization, 45° oblique polarization, etc. The 2 signals with different polarizations are respectively passed through the two sets of amplitude and phase control chips. Amplitude and phase control are performed according to the amplitude and phase control requirements of radar and reconnaissance respectively, and then output to the two sets of downconversion components, which convert the signals to intermediate frequency outputs, thereby enabling simultaneous reception of radar and reconnaissance signals at different polarizations.

[0051] Six H-polarized signals enter receiving components HR1 to HR6, and six V-polarized signals enter receiving components VR1 to VR6. One H-polarized signal is limited and amplified with low noise by receiving component R1 before being output to power divider H1. Power divider H1 divides this signal into two equal paths, and the two signals enter double-pole double-throw switch SP1. One V-polarized signal is limited and amplified with low noise by receiving component VR1 before being output to power divider V1.

The signal flow of the other four H-polarized signals and four V-polarized signals is similar. The six signals output from combiners H1 to H6 enter combiner T1, which combines them into a single signal and outputs it to amplitude and phase control chip 1. Based on the radar beam pointing and amplitude control requirements, phase and amplitude control are performed, and the signal is then output to frequency converter 1. This signal is mixed with local oscillator signal 1 to form an intermediate frequency (IF) signal. The six signals output from combiners V1 to V6 enter combiner T1, which combines them into a single signal and outputs it to amplitude and phase control chip 2.
