Phased Array antenna design

Hello all,

I am designing one phased array antenna design for one of our product.

Currently I am designing array antenna with 12x8 array struture and subarray with 3x1 structure. So, we will be having 4 sub array on one row. That is 4 subarray with 3 elements i.e.total 12 vertical elements on one row and 8 horizontal elements.

I would like to perform array simulation with amplitude tapering and phase excitation with both dolph chebyshev and taylor window for one complete vertical elements i.e N= 12, with required side lobe level (SLL) as around 25dB

If we could get the amplitude tapering and phase excitation values , is it possible to optimize the tapering with proer ratio for each subarray because i need to design the power divider with 3X1 elements, however, the power ratio should be similar for all other sub arrays? Is it possible in the MATLAB?

Could you please help me to work with some examples specifically on the amplitude tapering and phase exitaions?

Is there any custumized Matlab scripted tool to design phased array antenna design with vertical and horizonatal steering?

Could you please give me the valuable support on this?

Thank you!,

Which apps should I use for the Phased antenna Array simulation? I think, we have separate apps like antenna array designer and antenna designerers

Could you please help me with that?

Best regards,

Naveen

Hello,

You can refer to the following documententation on "Phased Array Design and Analysis" for more information : https://in.mathworks.com/help/phased/phased-arrays.html

You can also refer to the documentation on "Get Started with Phased Array System Toolbox" to Design and simulate phased array and beamforming systems: https://in.mathworks.com/help/phased/getting-started-with-phased-array-system-toolbox.html?s_tid=CRUX_lftnav

I hope this helps!

Could any one please tell me how to reduce the SLL by using amplitude taepring using antenna array tool?

It would be very helpful.

Thanks,
