The number of groups of target position data and position matrices obtained is the same as the number of receiving sub-arrays set. In a preferred embodiment, the number of receiving sub-arrays is set to four, and the scanning airspace can be divided into four quadrants.

[0021] In some embodiments, step S1 specifically includes the following steps: After the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is powered on, the baseband processor independently and real-time queries the geographical location information and attitude information of the current location, and then calculates the theoretical pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna according to the geographical location of the communication target input by the user. At this time, the azimuth angle As and elevation angle Es of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna are calculated as follows: ; where ∆φ = φ g -φ s, φs is the longitude of the communication target, λs is the latitude of the communication target, hs is the height of the communication target from the ground, R is the radius of the Earth, φg is the longitude of the location where the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is located, λg is the latitude of the location where the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is located, and hg is the altitude of the location where the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is located; Then, based on the real-time attitude data collected by the inertial navigation, calculate the real-time pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, and then correct the beam pointing in real time, so that the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna communicates with the communication target dynamically. The calculation formula for the real-time pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is as follows: ; Among them, A G is the azimuth angle of the communication target, E G is the elevation angle of the communication target, H is the heading angle of the attitude of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, P is the elevation angle of the attitude of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, R G is the roll angle of the attitude of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, A b is the azimuth angle in the coordinate system of the location where the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is located, E b is the elevation angle in the coordinate system of the location where the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is located; convert the real-time pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna into antenna coordinates, that is, the off-axis angle θ = 90–E b ; the azimuth angle φ = 180–A b .

[0022] In this embodiment, after the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is powered on, the baseband processor autonomously and real-time queries the current geographical location information and attitude information, and then calculates the theoretical pointing of the phased array antenna according to the geographical location of the communication target input by the user.

[0023] In some embodiments, step S2 specifically includes the following steps: The baseband processor issues an instruction to make the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna work in the interference recognition mode. The internal processor of the phased array antenna automatically enters the multi-beam reception working mode, divides the entire array surface into multiple output areas, each output area outputs an independent reception beam, each reception beam scans the same airspace respectively, receives the interference signals in the airspace, records the spatial coordinate positions and signal intensities of each interference signal, and forms an interference source position matrix.

[0024] In this embodiment, after the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna completes system positioning to obtain the required geographical coordinates and attitude information, interference source detection is carried out. The baseband processor issues an instruction to make the phased array antenna work in the interference recognition mode. The internal processor of the phased array antenna automatically enters the multi-beam receiving working mode. The entire array surface is divided into four quadrants, and each quadrant outputs an independent receiving beam. Each beam scans the same airspace respectively, receives the interference signals in the airspace, records the spatial coordinate positions and signal intensities of each interference signal, and forms an interference source position matrix.

[0025] In some embodiments, step S3 specifically includes the following steps: The baseband processor processes the multiple groups of position matrices obtained at the same time, analyzes the matrix data to redraw the interference source target coordinate distribution map, and then overlaps and analyzes multiple interference source target coordinate distribution maps to form a target coordinate distribution map. The positions where the position matrices within the first preset numerical range in the target coordinate distribution map are all recorded are marked as real interference source targets, the positions where the position matrices within the second preset numerical range in the target coordinate distribution map are recorded are marked as suspicious interference source targets, and the non-overlapping positions in the target coordinate distribution map are marked as false interference source targets; then the analysis results are processed, the information of the suspicious interference source targets and real interference source targets is recorded, and the information of the false interference source targets is discarded; the minimum value of the first preset numerical range is greater than the maximum value of the second preset numerical range.

The baseband processor issues an accurate positioning instruction, and the internal processor of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna controls the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna to form a two-dimensional difference beam, and then performs beam scanning at the coordinate position where the real interference source target is located to obtain the exact coordinate position of the real interference source target, and feeds it back to the baseband processor to obtain the interference source position.

[0028] In this embodiment, after obtaining the basic information of the interference source target, it will be accurately positioned. The baseband processor issues an accurate positioning instruction, and the internal processor of the phased array antenna controls the phased array antenna to form a two-dimensional difference beam, and then performs a fast and accurate beam scanning at the coordinate position where the obtained interference source target is located to obtain the exact coordinate position of the interference source target, and feeds it back to the baseband processor. To ensure the accuracy of the coordinates and the dynamic and static confirmation of the target, the phased array antenna can execute the interference recognition mode in a loop.

[0029] In some embodiments, when executing S4, the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is set to execute the interference recognition mode in a loop.

[0030] In some embodiments, step S5 specifically includes the following steps: After the baseband processor obtains the interference source position, it analyzes the beam direction required for current communication, and at the same time processes the real interference source, issues an instruction to make the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna work in the communication working mode. The millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna forms a narrow beam to communicate with the communication target, and uses the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna to perform nulling processing on the radiation pattern of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna at this time, so that when the real interference source signal is transmitted to the aperture surface of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, there is a level difference greater than the preset level difference, avoiding interference from the real interference source to the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna.

[0031] In this embodiment, after the baseband processor obtains the position of the interference source, it analyzes the beam direction required for current communication, processes the interference source at the same time, issues an instruction to make the phased array antenna work in the communication working mode, the phased array antenna forms a narrow beam to communicate with the target, and at the same time uses the genetic algorithm to perform nulling processing on the radiation pattern of the phased array antenna at this time, so that when the interference source signal is transmitted to the aperture of the phased array antenna, there is a large level difference, avoiding interference from the interference source to the phased array antenna.

[0032] In some embodiments, the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna is obtained by combining the genetic algorithm and the phased array antenna algorithm.

[0033] In this embodiment, the genetic algorithm is an optimization method that simulates natural selection and genetic mechanisms. It searches for the solution set of the problem by simulating the biological evolution process. During the solution process, it starts from any initial population, and through random selection, crossover and mutation operations, generates a group of individuals that are more suitable for the environment, and evolves generation by generation to obtain the optimal solution. The genetic algorithm is the most commonly used and mature algorithm. By combining the genetic algorithm with the phased array antenna algorithm, the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna can be obtained. The flow of the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna is as Figure 3 shown.

[0034] In some embodiments, the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna includes the following steps: Initialize the parameters of the phased array antenna; Set the nulling optimization target according to the position information and attitude information of the real interference source target; Draw the theoretical radiation pattern of the phased array antenna; Call the genetic algorithm to iteratively obtain the optimal nulling result by phase weighting of the phased array antenna; Substitute the optimal nulling result to draw the nulling radiation pattern of the phased array antenna.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the algorithm works, it first initializes the parameters of the phased array antenna, then sets the nulling optimization target according to the position information and attitude information of the interference source target, then draws the theoretical radiation pattern of the phased array antenna, and then calls the genetic algorithm to quickly iteratively obtain the optimal nulling result by phase weighting of the phased array antenna. The nulling convergence process of the genetic algorithm is as Figure 5 shown, and finally substitute the nulling result to draw the nulling radiation pattern of the phased array antenna. Compare the radiation patterns before and after nulling according to the results of the real-time nulling algorithm of the phased array antenna, as Figure 4As shown, before zero adjustment, the sidelobe level at the interference source position of the pattern (M1) is -20.1461 dB. After zero adjustment, the sidelobe level at the interference source position of the pattern (M2) is -36.909 dB. After zero adjustment, the suppression of the interference source by the phased array antenna increases by 16.7629 dB, reducing the communication impact of the interference signal on the phased array antenna, greatly enhancing the anti-interference ability of the phased array antenna, and ensuring the communication reliability of the phased array antenna.

[0036] In some embodiments, the genetic algorithm includes the following steps: Initialize the population; calculate the fitness for the first time; perform the selection operation; perform the crossover operation; perform the mutation operation; generate a new population; calculate the fitness again; Determine whether the termination condition is met. If it is met, obtain the optimal solution. If it is not met, re-perform the selection operation and subsequent steps until the termination condition is met.

[0037] In some embodiments, there are four receiving sub-arrays, four sets of target position data, and four sets of position matrices.

[0038] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein, should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be changed within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or the technology or knowledge in related fields.
