Abstract
The invention provides a method for diagnosing the distortion position of an antenna array aperture amplitude-phase field, which comprises the steps of firstly carrying out near field-plane spectrum transformation on near field data to obtain a plane spectrum component of a k space, then carrying out directional diagram correction of a probe and a unit on the k space plane spectrum, and finally carrying out plane spectrum-aperture field inverse transformation to obtain aperture field distribution.

Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of antenna near field testing, in particular to a method for diagnosing the distortion position of an antenna array aperture amplitude phase field.
Background
In recent years, array antennas, and in particular phased array antennas, have been developed rapidly and are widely used in various military and civilian radio systems. At present, the research and development tasks of domestic array antennas, especially phased array antennas, are quite heavy, but due to the reasons of processing and manufacturing and the like, the antennas have a large number of inevitable errors in actual design, and besides, the vibration of the arrays, the coupling among antenna units, the aging of active devices, the change of temperature characteristics of the active devices and the like can introduce unpredictable errors into the antennas or cause failure units, so that the amplitude and phase of the radar antennas need to be diagnosed and debugged to determine the amplitude and phase distribution condition of currents on each radiation unit of the antennas.
At present, when a large array antenna is diagnosed and debugged in China, two methods are mainly used: the first is to approximate the antenna array with a probe, roughly measuring the area of failed elements or singular changes in the array. The method cannot accurately measure the amplitude-phase distribution of the antenna aperture surface, because a strong multiple reflection effect exists between the probe and the AUT, the effect changes along with the sampling motion of the probe on the scanning surface, so that a great diagnosis error is caused, and the method needs to continuously move the probe manually and record data manually, so that a great deal of labor and time cost is consumed. The second one is to use the caliber inversion module nested with the business software of the American NSI company to diagnose the caliber field amplitude phase, but the caliber inversion module is used as the business secret abroad, the principle and the source code are not disclosed, the external world can not know the inversion principle, mode and path, and can not learn, reference or even enhance and optimize on the basis; moreover, the caliber inversion module is mainly used on radars, relates to the national defense industry, and has the risk of radar parameter disclosure by completely using foreign software; finally, the caliber inversion module is packaged and exported as part of software, so that the caliber inversion module is expensive and cannot be independently applied at home. From the perspective of independent research and development, independent intellectual property, ensuring the confidentiality of radar test parameters, or from the perspective of secondary product development, reducing production cost and shortening manufacturing period, a set of technical scheme which is suitable for the actual needs of radars (antenna arrays) in China and has complete intellectual property is required to be provided, and only source codes compiled on the basis have safety and the backdoor is avoided.
Aiming at the problems, a large number of domestic scientific research institutions carry out beneficial research, exploration and attempt, and currently, an equivalent magnetic current method and a plane wave spectrum method are mainly used. However, in practical application, the method of the invention still has the limitation of use environment, specifically:
the main disadvantage of the equivalent magnetic current method is that the directional diagram of the probe is not corrected, so that the method is limited to be practical. In addition, in the method, because the limitation of the computer memory cannot consider the contribution of the equivalent magnetic current in the whole plane when the equivalent magnetic current is determined by the near-field data, the contribution of the equivalent magnetic current in the aperture surface or a slightly larger area of the antenna to be measured can only be considered, and the influence of the limited scanning surface in the plane near-field measurement is added, so that the accuracy of the aperture field distribution obtained by the method is limited. In addition, the method needs to solve a matrix equation when the equivalent magnetic current is determined by the near field data, so that when the aperture surface and the scanning surface of the antenna to be measured are both large, so that matrix elements are many, the calculation efficiency is not high, and the time cost is increased. The existing plane wave spectrum rule can be used only when the horizontal direction diagram and the vertical direction are both odd number of points. In actual antenna test, due to factors such as frequency, sampling surface, distance between the probe and the antenna, the number of sampling points may be even or odd, which causes the use of the traditional method in China to be greatly limited.
