    • A dual band array antenna is disclosed having interleaved waveguide and dipole arrays, each operating in a different frequency band. The orientation of the waveguides and dipoles is such that polarization of the signals of the two frequency bands is perpendicular to each other, thus reducing mutual coupling. The waveguides are used for the higher frequency band and their cutoff frequency is selected to be above the lower frequency band at which the dipoles operate, in order to reduce mutual coupling into the waveguides. In one embodiment the dipoles are printed on a substrate having a dielectric constant selected so that dipole spacing is the same as the waveguide spacing. This eliminates grating lobe formation in the radiation pattern of the waveguide array. A low pass filter is included in the dipole feed circuit to reject the frequencies at which the waveguides operate. As a result of the invention, two beams of two different frequency bands are independently and simultaneously steerable in a single antenna aperture.
    • 公开了一种双波段阵列天线,其具有交错的波导和偶极阵列,每个阵列在不同的频带中工作。 波导和偶极子的取向使得两个频带的信号的极化彼此垂直,从而减少了相互耦合。 波导用于较高频带,并且其截止频率被选择为高于偶极子操作的较低频带,以减少与波导的相互耦合。 在一个实施例中,将偶极子印刷在具有选定的介电常数的基板上,使得偶极间距与波导间隔相同。 这消除了波导阵列的辐射图中的光栅波瓣形成。 偶极馈电电路中包括一个低通滤波器,以抑制波导工作的频率。 作为本发明的结果,两个不同频带的两个波束在单个天线孔径中是独立且同时可控的。

    • In a printed circuit embodiment, dielectric boards in a multilayer arrangement have their ends protruding from a ground plane. Sets of printed dipole elements are disposed along the edge of each board. Each set of dipole elements has three feed ports. Bandpass filters are provided for each feed port. Phase shifters are coupled to each of the feed ports through its respective bandpass filter. At the low band, the outer feed ports are shorted by the filters so that the two sections of dipole elements to the left of the center feed port form one lone band dipole arm, and the two sections of dipole elements to the right of the center feed port form the other low band dipole arm. The low band dipole is driven at the center feed port. At the high band, the center feed port becomes an open circuit so that the two sections to the left thereof form one high band dipole, and the two sections to the right thereof form a second high band dipole. The two outer feed ports drive the dipole array at the high band. In an MMIC embodiment, printed circuit stubs are bridged across the outer feed ports. The length of each stub is one wavelength at the low frequency band, and one-and-one-half wavelengths at the high frequency band. At the low frequency, the stubs appear to be short-circuited. At the high frequency band, the terminals of the stubs provide a 180 degree phase difference for a balun.

    • A multiple layer dipole array that provides for a multi-frequency band phased array antenna. Several layers of dipole pair arrays, each tuned to a different frequency band, are stacked relative to each other along the transmission/reception direction. The highest frequency array is in front of the next lowest frequency array and so forth. Due to the frequency selective property of the arrays, incident high frequency signals are completely absorbed by the highest frequency array. In regard to incident low frequency signals, the insertion loss due to higher frequency arrays is small resulting in good performance of the lower frequency arrays. The multi-frequency band phased array antenna may use active or driven dipole pairs, or parasitic elements that form the multiple layer dipoles. The multiple layer dipole array of the present invention may employ corporate feed circuit boards and a corporate feed power divider, using strip transmission line circuits, for example. The multiple layer dipole phased array of the present invention may also employ a feed-through lens arrangement to simplify the feed network.

    • A wideband, wide angle sidelobe cancellation array system is disclosed. The system includes a main array formed of a plurality of regularly spaced elements, and an auxiliary array formed of two auxiliary antenna elements spaced from the outermost elements of the main array a distance equal to one-half the spacing of the main array elements. The received signals from the main array elements are combined to form a main array signal. The contributions from the auxiliary array elements are combined to form an auxiliary array signal. The two array signals have a good amplitude and phase match over a wide frequency and angle range. The main array and auxiliary array signals are then combined to form a system array signal wherein the sidelobe energy in the main array signal has been substantially cancelled. The system can be made an adaptive one by the addition of adaptive RF phase and amplitude weighting to the auxiliary array signal prior to combining with the main array signal.

    • An ultra wideband (UWB) phased array antenna using a frequency-multiplexing, space-fed lens with a UWB feed horn achieves multi-octave bandwidth. The lens includes two UWB radiating apertures with relatively narrow band phase shifters connecting corresponding radiating elements of the arrays. Each aperture multiplexes the incoming UWB signal into separate frequency bands so that the phase shifters need only be tuned to these narrower frequency bands, and are set to form a beam in the desired direction. For wide instantaneous bandwidth operation, the beams from the various frequency bands are collimated in the same direction. For multi-mode operation, the beams corresponding to the various frequency bands are formed in different directions. The phase shifters need have a maximum phase shift of 360 degrees.

    • An apparatus and a method for enhancing the radar cross section of a target. The present invention is an impulse radar system that implements a method that comprises the following steps. A pilot impulse radar pulse is transmitted at a target. The pilot pulse comprises a plurality of individual pulses having respective distinct frequencies generated by the impulse radar system. A return pulse from the target is received by the impulse radar system and provides information indicative of target scattering centers. The return pulse is used as a calibration signal for generating a phase conjugated pulse. The phase conjugated pulse is then transmitted at the target. Processing a target return signal derived from the transmitted phase conjugated pulse enhances the radar cross section of the target because the waveform of the transmitted phase conjugated pulse is matched to the characteristics of the target. The present invention is adapted to detect low radar cross section targets without encountering the problems and frequency restrictions with conventional radar systems. In a second embodiment of the present invention, when a progressive phase variation is applied to the transmit pulses, the radar cross section contributed by backward travelling wave is made to add in phase in the received direction by processing the received target return pulses while adaptively adjusting the phase sequence of the transmitted pulses. When the appropriate phase sequence is achieved which is such that the transmitted pulses match the scattering centers on the target, then an enhanced return signal is received.

    • A module disposed at each radiating element of a phased array antenna, the module having a limiter, a low-noise amplifier and a phase shifter. One embodiment includes a DPDT switch to permit use of a common phase shifter on transmit and receive. On transmit, the DPDT switch is thrown in a position that connects the phase shifter directly to the radiating element. On receive, the DPDT switch is thrown in a position that connects the radiating element through the limiter and low noise amplifier and then to the phase shifter. Another embodiment uses a four-port circulator in place of the DPDT switch, and uses separate phase shifters for transmit and receive. A semi-active module for a constrained feed array uses both a DPDT switch and a circulator and uses a common transmit/receive phase shifter. A semi-active module for a space-fed array uses two DPDT switches, a single phase-shifter and limiter/low-noise amplifier and two antenna elements; one of receive, and one for retransmit. Another module employs a four-port circulator, separate transmit and receive phase shifters, and separate transmit and receive beamforming networks. In a monopulse radar transmitter, a module using a four-port circulator and a separate receive diode phase shifter, limiter and low-noise amplifier is used with a receive monopulse feed, transmit ferrite phase shifters and a transmit series feed.

    • A low sidelobe, solid state array antenna apparatus comprises a large radiating aperture divided into a large number, N, of small, closely spaced radiating apertures, each small radiating aperture having associated therewith a radiating element and a linearly polarized solid state power module. The large radiating aperture is divided into M, preferably between 3 and about 10, differently sized, elliptically shaped, concentric radiating zones superimposed, for analysis purposes, upon another. Each such zone has an output voltage amplitude, E.sub.i, and semi-major and semi-minor axes of respective lengths, a.sub.i and b.sub.i, each zone being considered separately in the far field equation: ##EQU1## J.sub.1 .sup.(u i.sup.) is the first order Bessel function, a.sub..theta. and a.sub..phi. are unit vectors in the spherical coordinates and K.sub.o is the wave number associated with the radiated field. Using the far field equation, values of E.sub.i, a.sub.i and b.sub.i for each zone are computed which result in the far field sidelobe peak gain being a minimum or being a specified number of dB, for example, at least about 30 dB, below the far field mainlobe gain. The values of E.sub.i in overlapping zones are summed to establish the required voltage amplitudes of the underlying power modules associated with the N radiation apertures.
