The application discloses an X-band intelligent circular ring array antenna and a control method thereof, and relates to the technical field of
radar antennas.The antenna comprises a PCB base plate, a plurality of antenna elements are distributed radially on the front surface of the PCB base plate, the front surface of the PCB base plate is an analog circuit, and the back surface is a digital
processing control circuit.The analog circuit comprises a power divider / combiner and a multi-path TR component, and the digital
processing control circuit comprises an SPI control interface, a wave
control circuit, a power supply and a modulation circuit.The application superimposes the windowed beam forming
algorithm and the traditional beam forming superposition
processing technology, overcomes the
disadvantage that the main and
side lobe suppression of the circular ring
antenna array is relatively low, greatly reduces the false target
false alarm probability, adopts the circular ring array +
phased array technology to realize the X-band intelligent antenna, does not need a motor rotating device, adopts full digital beam forming, and has faster scanning speed, higher reliability, various scanning
modes, can realize the beam pointing large-angle instantaneous movement, and overcomes the
inertia disadvantage of mechanical scanning.
