Abstract
Localisation by direction of arrival (DOA) array is one of the possible future applications for stratospheric platform systems. Such localisation systems are envisioned to be applicable to post-disaster search and rescue, wildlife tracking, traffic control, and identification of illegal broadcasters by law enforcement. A novel DOA architecture (Miura et al., 2006) was installed across the wings of a prototype stratospheric aircraft and flown in November 2006. A novel, higher order mode microstrip patch antenna suitable for use as a ground station reference for the DOA demonstration is introduced.
到达方向定位(DOA)阵列是未来平流层平台系统可能的应用之一。这种定位系统预计将适用于灾后搜救、野生动物追踪、交通管制和执法部门识别非法广播。一种新的DOA架构(Miura et al., 2006)被安装在一架原型平流层飞机的机翼上,并于2006年11月试飞。介绍了一种新型的高阶微带贴片天线,可作为地面站的DOA验证参考。
