Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of active phased array antenna technology, and more specifically, to a low-cost analog multi-beam active phased array (TR) component and device. Background Technology
[0002] Active phased arrays (APA) are widely used in radar, electronic warfare, communications, reconnaissance, and early warning systems due to their non-inertial agility in scanning beams, excellent radio frequency performance, and good channel redundancy. Multi-beam phased arrays, in particular, can provide multiple independent scanning beams simultaneously. This characteristic offers numerous advantages in various fields; for example, in communications, it enables rapid and efficient networking, multi-target communication, and increased communication capacity, thus attracting widespread attention.
[0003] Multibeam phased arrays can be divided into two types: analog multibeam phased arrays and digital multibeam phased arrays. Digital multibeam phased arrays use algorithms in the digital domain to realize multiple beams, and they are not strictly limited in the number of beams, but they are currently facing problems such as high power consumption, narrow radio frequency bandwidth, and large size and weight. Analog multibeam phased arrays realize multiple beams through multibeam TR components.
[0004] Each channel of the multi-beam TR assembly contains a phase controller equivalent to the number of beams for independent beam scanning; this is implemented by the RF chip. Additionally, the TR assembly contains an RF network equivalent to the number of beams for RF signal combining; this is implemented by a multilayer printed circuit board.
[0005] Benefiting from the high-performance RF chips and RF networks of TR components, analog multi-beam phased arrays have advantages such as low power consumption, wide RF bandwidth, and light size and weight. However, as the number of beams increases (e.g., more than 16 beams), multi-beam TR components become very complex because the phase controllers and RF networks are equal to the number of beams, resulting in high costs. This is mainly reflected in: 1) The increase in phase controllers leads to greater design difficulty, larger area, and lower yield of multi-beam RF chips, resulting in a sharp increase in costs; 2) The increase in RF networks leads to more printed circuit board layers, more printed circuit board materials, and more difficult processing technology, resulting in a sharp increase in costs. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a low-cost analog multi-beam active phased array (TR) component and device, which improves the yield of RF chips, reduces the area of RF chips and the number of printed circuit board network layers, and reduces costs; it also has the advantages of low design difficulty and simple process implementation.
