Abstract: 
Phased array (PA) radar is one of the most popular types of radar. In contrast to PA, the frequency diverse array (FDA) is a potential solution to suppress range-related interference because of its time-range-angle-dependent beampattern. However, the range-angle coupling inherent in the FDA transmit beampattern may degrade the output signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR). We propose a dot-shaped beamforming method based on the analyzed four subarray-based FDAs and subarray-based planar FDAs using a sinusoidally increasing frequency offset with elements transmitting at multiple frequencies. The numerical results show that the proposed approach outperforms the existing log-FDA with logarithmical frequency offset in transmit energy focus, sidelobe suppression, and array resolution. Comparative simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

基于子阵sin-FDA的点状波束形成研究

摘要:相控阵(phasedarray,PA)雷达是应用最为广泛的雷达类型之一。与PA相比,频率分集阵列(frequency diverse array,FDA)时间-距离-角度相关的波束特性,使其在抑制距离维相关干扰方面具有巨大潜力。但是,FDA发射波束方向图中固有的距离角耦合会降低输出信干噪比(signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio,SINR)。基于对4种采用正弦频控函数发射多载频的子阵FDA及平面FDA的分析,提出一种点状波束形成方法。数值结果表明,该方法在传输能量聚焦、旁瓣抑制和阵列分辨率上优于现有的log-FDA。对比仿真结果验证了所提方法有效性。
