Abstract

Wideband phased array becomes a research focus with the development of modern radar technology.Wideband phased array radar is one of the advanced radar technology. However, the aperture fill time results in the beam pointing offset, limits the instantaneous bandwidth and effects of the 1-D target range profile. This paper analyses the scheme of sub-array compensation for aperture fill time. For LFM signals system, we analyze the compensation using filters for aperture fill time, and for stepping frequency signal system, we analyze the scheme of interveinal phase matching, then simulate by Matlab. The simulation results show that the sub array division technology can compensate the aperture effect and increase the instantaneous bandwidth effectively. Both the filter and the interveinal phase matching methods can solve the main lobe expansion and targets range migration; lastly get the high resolution range profile.
