Description

Novel method for designing MxN Nuomon matrix
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of matrix equation sets and networks, and particularly relates to a novel method for designing an M multiplied by N norlon matrix in the field.
Background
The search for multi-beam antennas has been in the leading field of research for decades, and the development in this field has mainly been derived from the research of beam forming matrices. A multi-beam antenna is a linear antenna array fed by a multiple-input multiple-output beam forming network (matrix or lens). The beam forming networks provide excitation to the antenna array with appropriate amplitude and phase, with the input ports of each beam forming network spatially corresponding to a discrete radiation beam. Thus, in transmit mode, multiple independent beams are generated from one aperture by sequential excitation of the beamforming input ports; on the other hand, all beams are simultaneously available in the receive mode. Multi-beam antennas have found wide application in the field of satellite communications, and also in radar and electronic warfare systems and point-to-multipoint terrestrial communications systems.
Generally, the multi-beam antenna is mainly classified into two types according to different feeding modes: parallel feeding and serial feeding. The most widely used beamforming matrices are now butler, braus and norlon matrices. The Butler matrix is a parallel multi-beam feeding mode, and the Booth matrix and the Nulon matrix are serial feeding modes; the butler matrix is typically designed for the same number of input and output ports, while the braz and norlon matrices are typically designed for different numbers of input and output ports.
Although the butler matrix has received a great deal of attention, much research work has been done on it, and the butler matrix is also used in a wide range of fields. However, research in recent years has shown that the norlon matrix or feed network based on the norlon matrix has the advantage of being more convenient and more scalable for any number of antennas (output ports) and radiation beams (input ports). However, in the current research on the norlon matrix, some design methods are actually complex, and some designs are not practical during programming calculation, so that it is very important to find a more concise norlon matrix design method which is more suitable for programming calculation.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
Example 1, this example discloses a new method for designing an M × N norlon matrix, where, under the condition that M excitation vectors of the norlon matrix are orthonormal, a first M columns of a scattering matrix of a coupler are orthonormal, and when only an i-th row input port in the norlon matrix is excited by single-bit power, a formula can be obtained

Depending on the characteristics of the coupler: the phase relationship between ports 1,2, 3 and 4, the value of the phase shifter can be found

the coupling coefficient theta of the coupler can be obtainedmn. And repeating the steps to obtain the values of all the couplers and the phase shifters in the Nulon matrix, namely the design method of the M multiplied by N Nulon matrix.
As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the norlon matrix includes phase shifters and couplers, with the phase shifters having values of

The scattering matrix of the coupler is [ S ]]From the scattering matrix [ S ] as shown in equation (1)]It can be seen that each input port is isolated from other input ports, and in order to design a norlon matrix meeting requirements, parameters of a phase shifter and a coupler are required to be solved;

As can be understood from the formula (8),
Figure BDA0002329530630000066
if each input port is matched and isolated from the other input ports,
Figure BDA0002329530630000067
then equation (10) can be rewritten as equation (11).
Figure BDA0002329530630000068
When we assume that the phase shifters and couplers are lossless, the norlon matrix is also lossless. Therefore, [ SN ] is a unitary matrix, it satisfies equation (12).
[SN]T=([SN]*)-1(12)
Equation (12) is written as a summation in equation (13):
Figure BDA0002329530630000071
equation (13) indicates that any column of the scattering matrix [ SN ] does a dot product with the conjugate of the same column equal to 1 and does a dot product with the conjugate of a different column equal to 0. This means that the scattering matrix SN is orthonormal.
Considering the definition of the excitation matrix by equation (5), the first M columns of the scattering matrix [ SN ] can be written as shown by equation (14).
Figure BDA0002329530630000072
Due to the scattering matrix SN]The first M columns of (a) are orthonormal,
Figure BDA0002329530630000073
and is also orthonormal. This limitation applies not only to norlon matrix network architectures, but also to other lossless network architectures.
