Abstract
In this study, the SLB(Sidelobe Blanking)/BLB(Blacklobe Blanking) design of the VHF band radar using the low-frequency band having a relatively larger beam width than the S-band or X-band radar. The antenna of the VHF band has a relatively large beam width, so it is reflected from the side lobe. If the reflected target signal is not processed into sidelobe, the false alarm rate of the radar increases by recognizing it from the main lobe signal. This method of SLB blocking is the elimination of the side lobe signal in the front of the array antenna using the central radiating element of the array antenna, and the blocking of side lobe signal from the antenna rear through BLB receiver block. After completed the radar implementation, The function of blocking of side lobe signals was confirmed through the system unit test by Simulated signal generator. Through this study, it will be used in the implementation of the side-lobe blocking technology of the array antenna for low-frequency band radar with large antenna size and beam width in the future.
