With the rapid development of antenna technology, the use of antennas is no longer limited to a single field, and the antennas are widely applied to the aspects of communication, radar, aerospace and the like, and the invention relates to a unit rapid selection method based on an opportunistic array antenna, which is shown in fig. 1 and comprises the following steps:
(1) And setting parameters: the opportunistic array antenna is provided with N antenna units, and the beam pointing direction of the opportunistic array antenna isSelecting the distance R of the far field region of the antenna, and obtaining an antenna beam pointing vector S according to the beam pointing direction and the distance of the far field region, wherein: the coordinate position of the ith antenna unit is (x) i ,y i ,z i ) Theta is a pitch angle and has a value range of 0-180 degrees,is an azimuth angle with the value range of 0-360 degrees, and R is far greater than 2D 2 And/lambda and 10D, D are the maximum size of the physical aperture of the opportunistic array antenna.
Regardless of the antenna used, certain environmental conditions must be satisfied. The invention also satisfies certain conditions, such as requiring R to be much greater than 2D 2 And the/lambda and the 10D and D are the maximum sizes of the physical apertures of the opportunistic array antenna, so that the proper distance of a far field region can be selected, meanwhile, the proper scanning angle can be obtained only by setting an antenna beam pointing vector, and an antenna unit meeting the requirement is selected according to the proper scanning angle.
(2) Determining the beam width: in free space, one element in an opportunistic array antenna is simulated and the half-power beamwidth BW of the element is determined. The beam width is an important index for measuring the performance of the antenna, and in consideration of the complexity of calculation, a computer is adopted to carry out simulation on the antenna unit. If the computer simulates all the antenna units, the computer takes a lot of time, which is contrary to the practical requirement.
(3) And initial value setting: the opportunistic array antenna comprises a computer, an opportunistic array antenna and a computer, wherein the opportunistic array antenna comprises a unit i, a unit i is randomly selected from the opportunistic array antenna, a unit i +1 and a unit i +2 which are adjacent to the unit i +1 and the unit i +2 are selected, initial value setting is carried out on the randomly selected antenna unit i, the initial value of i is set to be 1, the opportunistic array antenna is composed of a plurality of antenna units, each antenna unit is in different positions, therefore, the antenna unit needs to be selected, initial value setting is carried out on the antenna unit, and then the computer starts to execute an operation process to select the antenna unit.
(4) Solving the unit external normal vector: in the opportunity array antenna, a plane formed by the selected ith, the subsequent adjacent (i + 1) th and (i + 2) th antenna units is approximately solved for the external normal vector n of the position of the ith antenna unit i And the radiation direction of the ith antenna unit is approximately taken as the radiation direction of the ith antenna unit, because in the opportunistic array antenna, the radiation of each antenna unitThe directions are different, the radiation direction of each antenna unit cannot be simply and effectively represented, the invention can calculate the external normal vector of each antenna unit one by adopting an approximation method, and the external normal vector is used for representing the radiation direction of each antenna unit.
(5) Calculating an included angle between the maximum radiation direction and the beam pointing direction: calculating the maximum radiation direction n of each antenna unit i Angle psi to beam pointing vector S i The invention adopts the included angle between the maximum radiation direction and the beam direction as the selection basis, and the included angle psi i The smaller the antenna directivity, the better the antenna performance, the longer the range. The invention is characterized in that the included angle psi i Only the maximum radiation direction n of each antenna element is calculated i Angle psi to beam pointing vector S i Based on this, the correct unit can be selected.
(6) And whether the unit selects the comparison judgment: angle psi between maximum radiation direction using antenna elements and beam pointing direction i Whether the antenna unit is selected or not is judged according to the relation with the half-power beam width BW of the antenna unit, the radiation direction of the antenna is generally provided with two lobes or a plurality of lobes, wherein the lobe with the largest radiation intensity is called a main lobe, the other lobes are auxiliary lobes, the angle between two points of which the radiation intensity is reduced by 3dB on two sides of the maximum radiation direction of the main lobe is called the half-power beam width, half of the half-power beam width is used as the judgment standard of the invention, and the antenna unit meeting the requirements is quickly and accurately selected through comparison and judgment.
Whether the antenna unit is selected or not is judged whether the antenna unit exceeds the selection range or not.
(7) And whether the unit is searched and judged: whether the selected antenna unit i is smaller than the total number N of the antenna units, if i is smaller than N, operating the (i + 1) th antenna unit, giving i +1 to i, referring to the figure 1, and repeating the steps (4), (5) and (6); and if i is larger than or equal to N, ending the process to obtain the selection states of all N antenna units. This is a constraint control on the whole selection process of the antenna units, the selection of the antenna units can only be within this range, and all the antenna units are searched through comparison and judgment.
(8) And finishing selection: and quickly selecting the antenna units meeting the requirements to participate in the quick detection of the signals.
The invention solves the problem that the maximum radiation directions of all antenna units are inconsistent in the array antenna and proper units are difficult to accurately select.
Example 2
The method for quickly selecting elements of the opportunistic array antenna is the same as that in embodiment 1, and in the beam width determination described in step (2), only the half-power beam width BW of one element in the opportunistic array antenna in the free space is used to approximately replace the half-power beam widths of all antenna elements.
The method for quickly selecting the opportunistic array antenna unit only adopts the half-power beam width of one antenna unit, does not need to search out the half-power beam widths of all the antenna units one by one, and the time spent on acquiring the half-power beam width of one antenna unit on a computer is less than 0.02 second, so that the searching and selecting process of the antenna unit is effectively accelerated, a large amount of precious time is saved, the defects of insensitive response and slow signal capture of the conventional radar in the working process are overcome, and the radar is in a high-speed and high-efficiency working state on target detection.

Otherwise, in the direction of radiationAnd if the antenna unit is in the closed state, continuously judging whether the antenna unit is completely searched. Whether the antenna unit is selected or not is judged whether the antenna unit exceeds the selection range or not, and the whole selection process is finished.
The invention selects half of half power beam width and BW/2 as the judgment standard of selection, and the maximum radiation direction n i Angle psi to beam pointing vector S i The comparison and judgment are carried out, the antenna units meeting the requirements are quickly and accurately selected by adopting an objective and scientific comparison method, and the practice also shows that the method can solve the problem that the proper antenna units are difficult to quickly and accurately select in the conventional opportunistic array, and meets the actual requirement.
