It should be noted that the above application scenarios are only shown for the convenience of understanding the present application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited in any way in this respect. Rather, embodiments of the present application may be applied to any scenario where applicable.
Various non-limiting embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, a method for controlling a phased array antenna according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. In this embodiment, the method may include, for example, the steps of:
s201: and acquiring an antenna data table corresponding to the phased array antenna, the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna and the position information of a signal emission source.
In this embodiment, the antenna data table may include a plurality of sets of phase parameters, where each set of phase parameters may include: yaw, pitch and roll angles. It should be noted that, the antenna data table corresponding to the phased array antenna may be preset, and the antenna data table refers to an antenna phase table used for adjusting the direction of the phased array antenna beam, for example, each group of phase parameters in the antenna data table corresponds to the beam when the phased array antenna points to the signal emission source, that is, each group of phase parameters is the phase parameter of the beam with the maximum signal strength when the phased array antenna points to the signal emission source, and may be understood as the phase parameter corresponding to the initial attitude of the beam when the phased array antenna points to the signal emission source.
The current phase parameter of the phased array antenna can be understood as a phase parameter at a certain time after the phased array antenna points to a signal emission source for a certain time. Because the position of the phased array antenna may change, the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna may be different from a set of corresponding phase parameters in the antenna data table, and accordingly, the signal strength of the current phase parameter may be reduced compared to the signal strength of the set of phase parameters.
The position information of the signal emission source may be understood as a position in a rectangular coordinate system corresponding to the phased array antenna, and may include x-axis coordinates, y-axis coordinates, and z-axis coordinates, for example.
As an example, if the processor is a Micro Control Unit (MCU), the MCU may be powered up first, and then initialized, such as setting a clock and configuring on-chip resources, and then a serial port command may be waited for, if the command requires F L ASH programming, the F L ASH programming state is entered until all antenna data table programming is completed.
S202: for each group of phase parameters, determining the signal strength corresponding to the group of phase parameters according to the group of phase parameters, the current phase parameters of the phased array antenna and the position information of a signal emission source;
when the search state is entered, the signal strength corresponding to each group of phase parameters in the antenna data table may be determined according to the group of phase parameters, the current phase parameters of the phased array antenna, and the position information of the signal emission source. For example, if the antenna data table includes a group a phase parameter and a group B phase parameter, the signal strength corresponding to the group a phase parameter may be determined according to the group a phase parameter, the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna, and the position information of the signal emission source, and the signal strength corresponding to the group B phase parameter may be determined according to the group B phase parameter, the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna, and the position information of the signal emission source.
Next, a specific way of determining the signal strength corresponding to the set of phase parameters according to the set of phase parameters, the current phase parameters of the phased array antenna, and the position information of the signal emission source will be described. As an example, the following steps may be included:
step a: and aiming at each group of phase parameters, determining the corresponding rotation angle of the phased array antenna according to the group of phase parameters and the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna.
For example, the rotation angle α of the Z axis corresponding to the phased array antenna is the rotation angle required to rotate from the Z axis coordinate in the set of phase parameters to the Z axis coordinate in the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna, the rotation angle β of the X axis corresponding to the phased array antenna is the rotation angle required to rotate from the X axis coordinate in the set of phase parameters to the X axis coordinate in the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna, the rotation angle γ of the Y axis corresponding to the phased array antenna is the rotation angle required to rotate from the Y axis coordinate in the set of phase parameters to the Y axis coordinate in the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna, wherein the rotation sequence of each axis of the coordinate system in which the phased array antenna is located can be obtained by a navigation system, such as referring to the ENU northeast coordinate system, the rotation sequence is the Z axis, the X axis and the Y axis).
Step b: determining a wave beam corresponding to the group of phase parameters according to the rotation angle and the position information of the signal emission source;
for example, assuming that the position information of the signal emission source is (X, Y, Z), the rotation angle of the phased array antenna corresponding to the Z axis is α, the rotation angle of the phased array antenna corresponding to the X axis is β, and the rotation angle of the phased array antenna corresponding to the Y axis is γ;
the method can first perform a Z-axis rotation, i.e., X1X cos α Y sina α, Y1X sin α + Y cosa α, Z1Z, then perform an X-axis transformation, Y2Y 1X cos β Z β sina β, Z β Y sin β + Z β X cosa β, X β X sin γ + Z β X cosa, Z β Y X β Y sin γ + Z β Z cosa γ, Y β, where the beam X β X θ X + Z β X cosa, Z β Y β Y β Y X β X sin γ X + Z β Y X β Y phi 36y2=x32+y32+z32
Then, the beam corresponding to the set of phase parameters may be determined according to the beam pointing angle and the beam phase angle. That is, the beam pointing angle and the beam phase angle may be used as the beam corresponding to the set of phase parameters.
Step c: and determining the signal intensity corresponding to the group of phase parameters according to the wave beam corresponding to the group of phase parameters.
Specifically, the beams of the phased array antenna may be adjusted to the beams corresponding to the set of phase parameters through the FPGA; then, the signal intensity corresponding to the wave beam of the phased array antenna as the wave beam corresponding to the group of phase parameters is detected, and the signal intensity is used as the signal intensity corresponding to the group of phase parameters.
S203: and adjusting the wave beam of the phased array antenna to be a target wave beam corresponding to the target phase parameter according to the target phase parameter with the maximum signal intensity in the multiple groups of phase parameters.
After the signal strength corresponding to each set of phase parameters in the antenna data table is obtained, a set of phase parameters with the maximum signal strength can be determined, and the set of phase parameters is called as target phase parameters. And then, the wave beam corresponding to the phased array antenna can be adjusted through the FPGA according to the target wave beam corresponding to the target phase parameter, namely, the wave beam corresponding to the phased array antenna is adjusted into the target wave beam corresponding to the target phase parameter.
S204: and tracking the target beam until the target beam meets a preset condition.
In this embodiment, the signal strength of the target beam at the first time may be detected first, that is, the signal strength of the phased array antenna at the first time when the beam is the target beam is detected first. If the difference value between the signal intensity of the target beam at the first moment and the signal intensity corresponding to the target phase parameter does not meet the preset condition, determining an adjacent beam corresponding to the target beam; as an example, if the difference between the signal intensity of the target beam at the first time and the signal intensity corresponding to the target phase parameter is not within a preset range, for example, the difference between the signal intensity of the target beam at the first time and the signal intensity corresponding to the target phase parameter is not less than 3dBm, which indicates that the position of a signal emission source is changed and it is required to track the signal emission source, the adjacent beam corresponding to the target beam may be determined.
Wherein the region pointed by the adjacent beam is adjacent to the region pointed by the target beam. For example, if the region pointed by the target beam is the a region, and both the B region and the C region are adjacent to the a region, both the beam corresponding to the B region and the beam corresponding to the C region may be determined as the adjacent beams corresponding to the target beam.
It should be noted that, in one implementation, eight adjacent beams corresponding to the target beam may be determined, where the respective areas pointed by the eight adjacent beams and the area pointed by the target beam are in an adjacent relationship.
After determining the adjacent beams corresponding to the target beam, the signal strengths respectively corresponding to the adjacent beams may be respectively determined. Then, respectively determining the magnitude relationship between the signal strength of each adjacent beam and the signal strength of the target beam at the first time, if the signal strength corresponding to the adjacent beam is greater than the signal strength of the target beam at the first time, which indicates that the region pointed by the adjacent beam is a signal emission source and is more likely than the target beam, then the adjacent beam may be used as the target beam, and the step of determining the adjacent beam corresponding to the target beam is continuously performed until the signal strength of the adjacent beam is equal to or less than the signal strength of the target beam, it should be noted that if the signal strength corresponding to at least two adjacent beams is greater than the signal strength of the target beam at the first time, then the adjacent beam with the largest signal strength among the at least two adjacent beams may be used as the target beam, and continuously judging the magnitude relation between the signal intensity of each adjacent beam and the target beam at the first moment until the signal intensity of the target beam is greater than or equal to the signal intensity of the corresponding adjacent beam. If the signal intensity corresponding to the adjacent beams is less than or equal to the signal intensity of the target beam, it is indicated that the region pointed by the target beam is the position of the signal emission source, and then the tracking of the signal emission source is completed.
Compared with the prior art, the control method of the phased array antenna mainly comprises the steps of obtaining an antenna data table corresponding to the phased array antenna, current phase parameters of the phased array antenna and position information of a signal emission source, wherein the antenna data table comprises a plurality of groups of phase parameters; determining the signal intensity corresponding to each group of phase parameters, and adjusting the wave beam of the phased array antenna to be the target wave beam corresponding to the target phase parameter according to the target phase parameter with the maximum signal intensity in the multiple groups of phase parameters; and tracking the target beam until the target beam meets a preset condition. Therefore, the invention can adjust the wave beam of the phased array antenna through the current phase parameter of the phased array antenna acquired by the inertial navigation module to ensure that the wave beam can constantly point to a certain area, and can track the target wave beam according to the signal intensity no matter the attitude of the phased array antenna changes or the signal emission source moves, thereby ensuring that the wave beam of the phased array antenna can constantly point to the emission source and keeping the signal intensity to be maximum.
