摘要/Abstract

Abstract:

The range and angle information of the frequency diverse array (FDA) cannot be exclusively determined at the output of the array because of the range-angle coupled transmit beampattern. The best decoupling approach is to form a dot-shaped beampattern rather than the S-shaped beampattern of the basic FDA. Considering the degradation of the output signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) caused by the coupled beampattern, we propose a dot-shaped beamforming method based on the analyzed overlapping subarray-based using a logarithmic offset and a subarray-based planar FDA using a logarithmically increasing frequency offset, with elements transmitting at multiple frequencies. Several simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in transmit energy focusing, sidelobe suppression and array resolution.

Key words: subarray-based frequency diverse array (SB FDA), planar frequency diverse array (PFDA), decoupling, dot-shaped beamforming
