Abstract

Abstract:

The streamlined structure of the seeker radome has an impact on the electromagnetic performance of antenna array, such as energy loss and angle detection errors, and brings serious loss to the guidance performance. This paper uses the electromagnetic wave refraction theory to establish a beam pointing offset model, and verifies the rationality of the model through mathematical formula deduction, which provides a theoretical basis for angle detection error compensation. The combination of the beam offset theory and the phased array antenna array angle measurement principle locates the maximum beam pointing angle corresponding to the detection angle of the array when there is a radome, and improves the accuracy of the detection angle error when compared to that when there is no radome. Experimental data show that the error angle compensation table obtained by the proposed method reduces the array angle detection error from 1° to an acceptable error range below 0.1°, which verifies the innovation and advancement of the method.

Key words: phased array, radome, beam pointing deviation, angle measurement error, angle compensation
