The GaAs TR chip mainly completes the functions of polarization switching, transceiver switching, low-noise amplification of the receiving link, and power amplification of the transmitting link. Therefore, the GaAs TR chip consists of three parts: a switch, a low-noise amplifier, and a power amplifier. The silicon-based multifunctional chip mainly completes the phase shifting, attenuation and amplification functions of the signal, so the silicon-based multifunctional chip is composed of amplifiers, attenuators, phase shifters, digi...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of phased-array antennas and especially relates to a phased-array antenna capable of realizing arbitrary polarization switching. The phased-array antenna comprises phased-array radiation units and a TR channel module. The TR channel module comprises N 2*2 TR sub-arrays, each TR sub-array comprises four radiation units, and the number of TR channels of each TR sub-array is 2*4; each phased array radiation unit comprises a patch, a feed point A and a feed point B, wherein the feed point A and the feed point B are located on the patch; and each phased array radiation unit carries out double-feed-point feeding. In the invention, one set of phased-array antenna equipment is used to realize functions of linear polarization, left-hand circular polarization, right-hand circular polarization and the like which are possessed by three sets of phased-array antenna equipment in the past so that cost and a structural size are greatly reduced, and a parasitic effectgenerated by using active devices is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of phased array antennas, and in particular, relates to a phased array antenna that can realize arbitrary polarization switching. Background technique [0002] The phased array antenna is an array antenna composed of many antenna units arranged in an array, and beam scanning and beam forming are realized by adjusting the feeding phase of each antenna unit. It has the advantages of small size, light weight, easy to form multiple beams, the ability to realize rapid changes in antenna beam pointing and beam shape, and the ability to adjust the communication capacity between beams. These advantages make it stable for tracking multiple high-speed moving targets. In addition, the phased array antenna can also realize the synthesis of signal power in space, so as to obtain a large EIRP (isotropic equivalent radiated power), which is to increase the system range, improve the system measurement accuracy and observati...
