Description

Deformed residual-cutting shaped millimeter wave antenna and design method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of positioning and existence detection of radio wave reflection, in particular to a deformed residual cutting shaped millimeter wave antenna and a design method thereof.
Background
With the rapid development of millimeter wave integrated circuits and the rapid increase of the requirements in the fields of smart cities, smart traffic, automatic driving and the like, millimeter wave radars are applied more and more widely. The frequency modulation continuous wave millimeter wave radar with multiple transmitting antennas and multiple receiving antennas is widely applied due to the advantages of distance measurement, angle measurement and speed measurement and simple and convenient realization. The millimeter wave antenna is a key component of such radar, and the performance difference of the millimeter wave antenna has a great influence on the performance of the whole radar.
The basic working principle of the millimeter-wave radar is as follows: the radar transmits a group of linear Frequency Modulation (FMCW) millimeter waves outwards through a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna receives a reflected signal of a target, and the reflected signal is subjected to frequency mixing, sampling and analog-to-digital conversion and then is subjected to signal processing, so that information such as the position, the speed, the moving direction and the like of each target can be quickly and accurately acquired. Under the condition that the target shape, the signal processing method and the transmitting power are not changed, the coverage range of the radar is mainly determined by the antenna.
In the prior art, millimeter wave radar antennas are diverse in types, and in terms of structural forms, the millimeter wave radar antennas are of the types of reflector antennas, dielectric focusing antennas, horn antennas, microstrip planar array antennas and the like, wherein the microstrip planar array antennas are widely applied in low-power scenes due to the advantages of simple structure, small volume, easiness in implementation and the like. As the radiation beam shape, there are a pencil beam, a fan beam, a cosecant square shaped beam, a cosecant 4-power shaped beam, and the like. Pencil beams and fan beams are typically used in the azimuth direction to cover a particular azimuth area. The cosecant square shaped beam and the cosecant 4-power shaped beam are generally used in the pitching direction which requires equal target signals, the cosecant square shaped beam is used in the scene that the receiving and transmitting antenna has the same beam, the cosecant 4-power shaped beam is used in the single antenna scene, the two shaped beams are suitable for the situation that the target size is far smaller than the distance size, and the target can be regarded as a point target. The millimeter wave radar detection personnel scene used in the actual smart city and smart traffic, such as monitoring of personnel on crosswalk and monitoring of personnel in indoor scenes such as business super, living room and nursing home, is detected that the target is personnel, the height is about 1.7 meters, the coverage range is within more than ten meters, and the radar installation height is 2-3.5 meters. In practical application, it is found that no matter the pencil beam, the fan beam, the cosecant squared shaped beam and the cosecant 4-power shaped beam can achieve approximately equal target echo signals in a required area, and a blind area exists at a close-distance position (for example, within 2.5 meters).
Therefore, for the scene of close-distance personnel monitoring, a novel shaped beam antenna is needed, and the target echo signals of the novel shaped beam antenna are approximately equal in a required area, so that the blind area is solved, and the large coverage area is kept.
For planar shaped antennas, an antenna array is used to implement a shaped beam, and the shaped antenna array requires that the amplitude and phase of each radiation unit are different, and the prior art adopts a relatively complex feed network composed of a plurality of asymmetric power dividers to meet the requirements. In order to reduce the manufacturing difficulty and cost, a simple and convenient way is also needed to realize a feeding way with specific requirements on amplitude and phase.
