摘要

通过幅度和相位控制,阵列天线在方向性方向图的变化方面提供了广泛的机会。峰值旁瓣电平可以通过幅度控制或在阵列孔径上加权来降低。几位作者在详细介绍了用于副瓣电平控制的孔径振幅分布的合成过程方面做出了重大贡献。在实现幅度加权函数时,一个基本的权衡是在低副瓣电平和主波束方向性损失之间进行权衡。一些商业上可用的模式计算程序,可以实现副瓣电平控制不提供计算孔径效率给定不同的幅度加权。孔径效率的计算可能有些令人困惑,特别是关于通过衰减逐渐变细与重新分布之间的差异。本文的目的是定义这些术语,并提供适当的归一化技术,这是获得准确的孔径效率估计的重要回顾。将介绍振幅锥及其用途的描述。将给出一个设计实例,将理论效率与通过有限元方法模拟得到的效率进行比较。

Aperture Efficiency of Amplitude Weighting Distributions for Array Antennas
Array antennas offer a wide range of opportunities in the variation of their directivity patterns through amplitude and phase control. Peak sidelobe levels may be reduced via amplitude control or weighting across the array aperture. Several authors have made significant contributions in detailing processes for synthesizing these aperture amplitude distributions for the purpose of sidelobe level control. One of the basic trade-offs when implementing amplitude weighting functions is that a trade between low sidelobe levels and a loss in main beam directivity always results. Some of the commercially available pattern calculation programs that can implement sidelobe level control do not provide calculations of the aperture efficiencies given different amplitude weightings. Calculation of the aperture efficiency can be somewhat confusing, particularly with regards to the difference between tapering via attenuation versus redistribution. The purpose of this paper is to define these terms, to provide a review of the proper normalization technique that is important in obtaining accurate aperture efficiency estimation. Descriptions of the amplitude tapers and their utility will be presented. A design example will be presented which will compare theoretical efficiencies with those obtained via finite element method simulation.
