Millimeter-wave phased array antenna technology is gradually highlighting its position in the field of millimeter-wave communication, and targeted communication countermeasures are also emerging.
[0003] Communication jamming targets communication receiving systems, aiming to weaken and disrupt their signal sensing and information transmission capabilities. Effective jamming requires sending a jamming signal to the receiver simultaneously with the communication signal, obscuring or interfering with the enemy signal, thus preventing the receiving system from correctly identifying the information. Common anti-jamming methods for receiving systems include adding shielding materials such as frequency-selective surfaces, employing techniques such as automatic frequency hopping and spread spectrum, and using complex adaptive anti-jamming algorithms. These methods are difficult to implement, require additional hardware, and result in high overall system costs. Summary of the Invention

In a preferred embodiment, four receiving subarrays are set, which can divide the scanning spatial domain into four quadrants.
[0055] In some embodiments, S1 specifically includes the following steps:
[0056] After the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is powered on, the baseband processor autonomously queries the current geographical location and attitude information in real time. Then, based on the geographical location of the communication target input by the user, it calculates the theoretical pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna. At this time, the azimuth angle As and elevation angle Es of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna are calculated using the following formulas:

[0059] Based on the real-time attitude data acquired by the inertial navigation system, the real-time pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is calculated, and the beam pointing is then corrected in real time, enabling the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna to dynamically communicate with the communication target. The formula for calculating the real-time pointing of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is as follows:
[0060] ;
[0061] Where A G E represents the azimuth angle of the communication target.

[0062] In this embodiment, after the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is powered on, the baseband processor autonomously queries the current geographical location information and attitude information in real time, and then calculates the theoretical pointing of the phased array antenna based on the geographical location of the communication target input by the user.
[0063] In some embodiments, S2 specifically includes the following steps:
[0064] The baseband processor issues commands to put the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna into interference identification mode. The internal processor of the phased array antenna automatically enters multi-beam receiving mode, dividing the entire array into multiple output areas. Each output area outputs an independent receiving beam, and each receiving beam scans the same spatial domain, receiving interference signals within the spatial domain. The spatial coordinates and signal strength of each interference signal are recorded, forming an interference source location matrix. The interference source location matrix is as follows:
[0065] ;

Pn The signal strength corresponding to the interference source, n Let m be the number of interference sources and m be the number of position matrices. Each quadrant's receiving beam will output a position matrix, so at the same time, the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna has multiple position matrices of interference sources.
[0067] In this embodiment, after the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna completes system positioning and obtains the required geographic coordinates and attitude information, it performs interference source investigation. The baseband processor issues instructions to make the phased array antenna work in interference identification mode. The internal processor of the phased array antenna automatically enters the multi-beam receiving working mode, divides the entire array surface into four quadrants, and outputs an independent receiving beam in each quadrant. Each beam scans the same spatial domain, receives interference signals in the spatial domain, records the spatial coordinate position and signal strength of each interference signal, and forms an interference source position matrix.
[0068] In some embodiments, S3 specifically includes the following steps:
[0069] The baseband processor processes multiple sets of position matrices obtained at the same time, parses the matrix data to redraw the coordinate distribution map of the interference source targets, and then performs overlay analysis on multiple interference source target coordinate distribution maps to form a target coordinate distribution map. Positions in the target coordinate distribution map where the position matrix records all positions within a first preset numerical range are marked as real interference source targets; positions in the target coordinate distribution map where the position matrix records all positions within a second preset numerical range are marked as suspected interference source targets; and positions in the target coordinate distribution map where there is no overlap are marked as false interference source targets. The analysis results are then processed, recording the information of suspected and real interference source targets, and discarding the information of false interference source targets. The minimum value of the first preset numerical range is greater than the maximum value of the second preset numerical range.
[0070] In this embodiment, the first preset numerical range and the second preset numerical range are values or ranges preset according to the actual working environment and working needs, and are not limited to a specific value or range. It is sufficient that the minimum value of the first preset numerical range is greater than the maximum value of the second preset numerical range. When there are four receiving subarrays, the first preset numerical range is 4, and the second preset range is 2-3. In a preferred embodiment, after obtaining four sets of interference source position matrices, the baseband processor processes the data of these four sets of position matrices obtained at the same time, parses the matrix data to redraw the interference source target coordinate distribution map, and then performs overlay analysis on the four interference source target coordinate distribution maps to form a phased array antenna interference source target coordinate distribution map (see...).

The analysis results are then processed to record the information of suspected interference source targets and true interference source targets, while discarding false interference source targets.

The baseband processor issues an accurate positioning command, 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 differential beam. Then, the beam is scanned at the coordinate position of the real interference source target to obtain the exact coordinate position of the real interference source target, and the feedback is sent to the baseband processor to obtain the location of the interference source.
[0073] In this embodiment, after obtaining the basic information of the interference source target, it will be accurately located. The baseband processor issues an accurate positioning command, and the internal processor of the phased array antenna controls the phased array antenna to form a two-dimensional differential beam. Then, a fast and accurate beam scan is performed at the obtained coordinate position of the interference source target to obtain the exact coordinate position of the interference source target and feed 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 cyclically execute the interference identification mode.
[0074] In some embodiments, when performing S4, the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna is set to cyclically execute the interference identification mode.
[0075] In some embodiments, S5 specifically includes the following steps:
[0076] After obtaining the location of the interference source, the baseband processor analyzes the beam direction required for current communication and processes the actual interference source. It then issues a command to put the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna into communication mode. The millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna forms a narrow beam to communicate with the target. A real-time nulling algorithm for the phased array antenna is used to nullify the radiation pattern of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna at this time, so that when the signal from the actual interference source is transmitted to the aperture of the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna, there is a level difference greater than a preset level difference, thus avoiding interference from the actual interference source to the millimeter-wave broadband phased array antenna.
[0077] In this embodiment, after the baseband processor obtains the location of the interference source, it analyzes the beam direction required for the current communication, processes the interference source, and issues a command to make the phased array antenna work in the communication mode. The phased array antenna forms a narrow beam to communicate with the target. At the same time, a genetic algorithm is used to zero-adjust the radiation pattern of the phased array antenna at this time, so that the interference source signal has a large level difference when it is transmitted to the phased array antenna aperture, thus avoiding interference from the interference source to the phased array antenna.
[0078] In some embodiments, the phased array antenna real-time nulling algorithm is obtained by combining a genetic algorithm with a phased array antenna algorithm.
[0079] In this embodiment, the genetic algorithm is an optimization method that simulates natural selection and genetic mechanisms. It searches for solutions to a problem by simulating the evolutionary process of organisms. During the solution process, starting from any initial population, random selection, crossover, and mutation operations are used to generate a group of individuals better suited to the environment. This evolution continues generation after generation until the optimal solution is found. The genetic algorithm is the most commonly used and mature algorithm. By combining the genetic algorithm with a phased array antenna algorithm, a real-time nulling algorithm for phased array antennas can be derived. The flow of the real-time nulling algorithm for phased array antennas is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.
[0080] In some embodiments, the phased array antenna real-time nulling algorithm includes the following steps:
[0081] Initialize the phased array antenna parameters;
[0082] Set the withering optimization target based on the location and attitude information of the actual interference source target;
[0083] Draw the theoretical radiation pattern of the phased array antenna;
[0084] The genetic algorithm is invoked to iteratively obtain the optimal decay result by weighting the phase of the phased array antenna;
[0085] Substitute the optimal decay results to plot the decay pattern of the phased array antenna.
[0086] In this embodiment, the algorithm first initializes the phased array antenna parameters, then sets the nulling optimization target based on the interference source target position and attitude information, then draws the theoretical radiation pattern of the phased array antenna, and then calls the genetic algorithm to quickly iterate and obtain the optimal nulling result by weighting the phase of the phased array antenna. The convergence process of the genetic algorithm for nulling is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the nulling results are then substituted to plot the nulling pattern of the phased array antenna. The patterns before and after nulling are compared based on the real-time nulling algorithm results for the phased array antenna, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the sidelobe level at the interference source location (M1) in the radiation pattern before nulling is -20.1461dB, and the sidelobe level at the interference source location (M2) in the radiation pattern after nulling is -36.909dB. After nulling, the phased array antenna's suppression of interference sources increases by 16.7629dB, reducing the impact of interference signals on the phased array antenna's communication, greatly improving the phased array antenna's anti-interference capability, and ensuring the phased array antenna's communication reliability.
[0087] In some embodiments, the genetic algorithm includes the following steps:
[0088] Initialize the population; calculate fitness for the first time; perform selection; perform crossover; perform mutation; generate a new population; calculate fitness again;
[0089] Determine if the termination condition is met. If it is, obtain the optimal solution. If not, re-execute the selection operation and subsequent steps until the termination condition is met.
