  • 쌍방향 선로결합형 위상차 배열 발진기 결합계를 구성하고, (1) 쌍방향 주파수제어 방식, (2) 단방향 주파수 제어방식, (3) 쌍방향 주입위상 제어방식 등 3가지 방식에 대하여 구동실험을 하였다. 시험 제작한 발진기에 구형 패치 안테나를 부착하여 2요소 능동안테나를 제작, 안테나 사이를 전송선로로 결합하여 어레이를 구성하고 결합 위상과 전송선로 길이와의 관계를 측정하였다. 전송선로로 결합된 능동 위상차 배열안테나의 주사각도에 따른 방사전력을 측정한 결과, (1)의 방식에서 빔의 방사방향은 약$-9.8^{\circ}$에서 $+9.8^{\circ}$까지 $19.6^{\circ}R, 위상차는 $-0.31{\pi}$에서 $-0.36{\pi}$까지 (2)의 방식에서 빔의 방사방향은 약 $-3.8^{\circ}$에서 $+17^{\circ}$까지 $20.8^{\circ}$, 위상차는 $-0.085{\pi}$에서 $-0.65{\pi}$까지, (3)의 방식에서 빔의 방사방향은 약 $-17^{\circ}$에서 $+16^{\circ}$까지 $33^{\circ}$, 위상차는 $-0.63{\pi}$에서 $-0.59{\pi}$까지 변하여 모두 위상차 배열동작이 가능함을 확인하였다.

  • In this paper, a method of designing a Vivaldi type phased array antenna (PAA) which operates at S-band (2.8-3.3 GHz) is presented. The presented antenna uses broadside coupled split ring resonators (BC-SRRs) for high isolation, wide field of view, and good active S-parameter characteristics. As an example, we design a $1{\times}8$ array antenna with various BC-SRR structures using theory and EM simulations. The antenna is fabricated and measured to verify the design. With the BC-SRR implemented between the two radiating elements, the isolation is shown to be enhanced by 6 dB, up to 23 dB. The scan angle is shown to be within ${\pm}53^{\circ}$ based on a -10 dB active reflection coefficient. The operation of the scan angle is possible within ${\pm}60^{\circ}$ with a little larger reflection coefficient (-7 dB to -8 dB). The proposed design with BC-SRRs is expected to be useful for PAA applications.

  • 저손실, 전자기 완전차폐, 고전력 특성을 갖는 기판집적 도파관(SIW)을 이용하여 X-band $8{\times}16$ 이중편파 능동 위상배열안테나 시스템을 구현하였다. 16-way SIW 전력분배 네트워크의 측정된 순수 삽입손실(0.65 dB)은 마이크로스트립 경우보다 1 dB 감소하였으며, SIW 부배열($1{\times}16$) 안테나 소자의 측정된 방사효율(73 %)은 약 2배(3 dB) 향상되었다. 이러한 SIW를 이용한 분배손실과 방사효율의 상당한 개선은 능동 위상 배열안테나 시스템에서 고전력 증폭기의 최대출력(P1 dB)을 저감하고, 총 전력소모를 약 30 % 절감할 것이다. SIW 기반으로 제작된 X-band $8{\times}16$ 이중편파 능동 위상 배열안테나 시스템을 이론적인 제어벡터만을 생성하여 0도, 5도, 9도, 18도의 정밀한(최대편차 2도) 빔 조향을 측정하였으며, 열주기/진공 시험에서 우주환경 적합성을 확인하였다. 고효율 SIW 배열안테나 시스템은 고성능 레이더는 물론 차세대 무선통신(5G)을 위한 Massive MIMO와 다양한 밀리미터파 통신시스템(60 GHz WPAN, 77 GHz 자동차 레이더, 초고속 디지털 전송시스템 등)에 매우 유용할 것으로 기대한다.

  • This paper is concerned with the design of the beam forming module that is a key unit of the active phased array antenna(APAA) system for mobile satellite communications. This module includes two blocks for main signal and tracking signal. Main signal block has the role of transmitting input signal from phased away antenna to tracking signal block. And, tracking signal block executes main roles, beam forming of tracking signal and electronic beam control. The several electrical performances of this module, phase characteristics and linear gain, etc., agreed with specifications needed for APAA, and for more clear verification of the performances, the satellite communication test of the APAA including the modules was accomplished in the outdoors.

  • 능동 위상배열 안테나는 방사부 및 저잡음증폭기와 위상천이기를 포함하는 능동회로부가 결합된 다수의 채널들로 구성된다. 각각의 채널은 능동회로부의 초기위상 및 이득의 비균일성, 방사소자와 능동회로부의 인터페이스 및 빔성형회로의 편차 등으로 인하여 제각기 다른 양의 초기위상 및 이득값을 갖게 된다. 이는 능동 위상배열 안테나에 내재된 문제점으로서, 설계된 안테나 방사패턴 및 안테나 이득을 실제로 구현하기 위해서는 각각의 채널의 초기위상 및 이득 편차를 보정할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 능동 위상배열 안테나에 대하여 초기위상 및 이득의 편차를 효율적으로 보정하여 안테나 성능을 최대로 향상시키는 새로운 보정 방법을 제시하였다. 실제 이 방법을 수행하여 12개의 상당히 비균일한 채널의 초기위상 천이 및 이득을 보정하여 안테나 이득을 2.0dB 이상 향상시켰다.

  • In this paper, the Single-stage Transmission type Injectiong-Locked Oscillator(STILO) was designed and fabicated for the Active Integrated Phased Array Antenna(AIPAA) system. The STILO, which was designed and fabricated by injection-locked technique and hair-pin resonator, has the same 210MHz frequency tuning range of the Voltage Controlled Oscillator(VCO) used by varactor. The locking bandwidth of STILO with 11.5MHz bandwidth, is much better than that of the Injection-Locked Dielectric Resonator Oscillator(ILDRO), And the STILO has the improved noise characteristics in AM, FM, and PM. This STILO is useful for the AIPAA, the coupled VCO array, an the MMIC structure.

  • Novel coupled line phase shifters and its equivalent phase delay line for compact broadband phased array antennas are proposed. These phase control circuits are designed to be less complex, small size and to use a less number of active devices. The phase shifter is able to control a 120$^{\circ}$ phase shift continuously, and the phase delay line for a reference phase has a fixed 60$^{\circ}$ shifted phase. Both have the low phase error of less than $\pm$3.5$^{\circ}$ and the low gain variations of less than 1 ㏈ within the 300 MHz bandwidth. These proposed circuits are adequate to form the efficient beam-forming networks with compactness, broadband, less complexity, and low cost.

  • Interference and jamming are becoming increasing concern to a radar system nowdays. AESA(Active Electronically Steered Array) antennas and adaptive beamforming(ABF), in which antenna beam patterns can be modified to reject the interference, offer a potential solution to overcome the problems encountered. In this paper, we've developed a planar active phased array radar system, in which ABF, target detection and tracking algorithm operate in real-time. For the high output power and the low noise figure of the antenna, we've designed the S-band TRMs based on GaN HEMT. For real-time processing, we've used wavelenth division multiplexing technique on fiber optic communication which enables rapid data communication between the antenna and the signal processor. Also, we've implemented the HW and SW architecture of Real-time Signal Processor(RSP) for adaptive beamforming that uses SMI(Sample Matrix Inversion) technique based on MVDR(Minimum Variance Distortionless Response). The performance of this radar system has been verified by near-field and far-field tests.

  • A dual-band dual-polarized microstrip antenna array for an advanced multi-function radio function concept (AMRFC) radar application operating at S and X-bands is proposed. Two stacked planar arrays with three different thin substrates (RT/Duroid 5880 substrates with $\varepsilon_r$=2.2 and three different thicknesses of 0.253 mm, 0.508 mm and 0.762 mm) are integrated to provide simultaneous operation at S band (3~3.3 GHz) and X band (9~11 GHz). To allow similar scan ranges for both bands, the S-band elements are selected as perforated patches to enable the placement of the X-band elements within them. Square patches are used as the radiating elements for the X-band. Good agreement exists between the simulated and the measured results. The measured impedance bandwidth (VSWR$\leq$2) of the prototype array reaches 9.5 % and 25 % for the S- and X-bands, respectively. The measured isolation between the two orthogonal polarizations for both bands is better than 15 dB. The measured cross-polarization level is ${\leq}-21$ dB for the S-band and ${\leq}-20$ dB for the X-band.
