Abstract

In this paper, we designed a sliding waveguide array antenna that can be beam-steered via mechanical manipulation. This reduces the vulnerability of electronic beam-steering radars mounted on ships or aircraft to electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attacks. The design frequency was 9.375 GHz. First, the proposed antenna was designed to adjust the phase difference between the arrayed waveguide antennas by changing the length of the rectangular waveguide using a slide. Subsequently, a ridge structure with optimized curvature was attached to the aperture of the rectangular waveguide to obtain stable reflection coefficient characteristics. Finally, eight rectangular waveguide antennas and two dummy antennas were E-plane arrayed at intervals of 0.8λ (25.6 mm) to obtain a beam width of nearly 8°. A beam width of 8° was then obtained by adjusting the length of each waveguide. It was possible to orient the beam of the antenna in intervals of 8° using the phase difference of each antenna. The proposed mechanical beam steering technique can replace electronic beam steering for radar antennas, rendering the structures less vulnerable to EMP attacks.

一种用于波束导向的滑动矩形波导阵列天线设计
在本文中,我们设计了一种滑动波导阵列天线,该天线可以通过机械操纵进行波束控制。这降低了安装在船舶或飞机上的电子波束控制雷达对电磁脉冲(EMP)攻击的脆弱性。设计频率为9.375GHz。首先,所提出的天线被设计为通过使用滑块改变矩形波导的长度来调整阵列波导天线之间的相位差。随后,将具有优化曲率的脊结构连接到矩形波导的孔径,以获得稳定的反射系数特性。最后,将八个矩形波导天线和两个伪天线以0.8λ(25.6 mm)的间隔进行E平面排列,以获得接近8°的波束宽度。然后通过调整每个波导的长度获得8°的光束宽度。可以使用每个天线的相位差以8°的间隔定向天线的波束。所提出的机械波束控制技术可以取代雷达天线的电子波束控制,使结构不太容易受到EMP攻击。
