Antenna Arrays by Randy L. Haupt Pdf

A comprehensive tutorial on the design and practical applications of antenna arrays An antenna array is an assembly of antenna elements that maximizes a received or transmitted signal in a desired direction. This practical book covers a wide range of antenna array topics that are becoming increasingly important in wireless applications, with emphasis on array design, applications, and computer modeling. Each chapter in Antenna Arrays builds upon the previous chapter, progressively addressing more difficult material. Beginning with basic electromagnetics/antennas/antenna systems information, the book then deals with the analysis and synthesis of arrays of point sources and their associated array factors. It presents a sampling of different antenna elements that replace these point sources, then presents element configurations that do not have to lie along a line or in a plane. The complex and difficult-to-predict interactions of elements and electromagnetic waves are introduced, along with computer modeling and experiments that are necessary for predicting the performance of arrays where mutual coupling is important. Then, various approaches to getting signals to and from the array elements to a computer where the signal detection takes place are explored, as are the numerical techniques behind smart antennas. The book emphasizes the computational methods used in the design and analysis of array antennas. Also featured are signal processing and numerical modeling algorithms, as well as pictures of antenna arrays and components provided by industry and government sources, with explanations of how they operate. Fully course-tested, Antenna Arrays serves as a complete text in phased array design and theory for advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in electronics and communications, as well as a reference for practicing engineers and scientists in wireless communications, radar, and remote sensing.

Large Aperture Array Radar Systems for Automotive Applications by Fabian Schwartau Pdf

The radar, besides camera and Lidar systems, is a core sensor to enable autonomous driving. The relatively limited angular resolution is the major drawback of the radar. This thesis shows the development of a conceptual future radar system for automotive applications. The focus is on providing a large antenna aperture to achieve the required high angular resolution. Two genetic algorithms are developed to optimize the antenna array for a good side lobe level while providing high angular resolution. Two demonstrators are built to implement certain aspects of the proposed radar system and prove the general concept viable. The first demonstrator features a large aperture with a limited side lobe level and is using a modular approach. The modules are synchronized with a radio over fiber system. The second demonstrator uses the previously proposed antenna array, which is implemented with a synthetic aperture radar approach. The system’s capabilities in a real scenario are demonstrated, and the reconstruction of a high-resolution three-dimensional image from the captured data is shown. Das Radar stellt, neben Kamera- und Lidar-Systemen, einen zentralen Sensor für das autonome Fahren dar. Dabei ist die relativ geringe Winelauflösung der primäre Nachteil des Radars. Diese Arbeit zeigt die Entwicklung eines konzeptionellen zukünftigen Radarsystems für automobile Anwendungen. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Umsetzung einer großen Antennenapertur, um die erforderliche hohe Winkelauflösung zu erreichen. Zwei evolutionäre Algorithmen werden vorgestellt, um das Antennen-Array auf einen guten Nebenkeulen-Pegel zu optimieren und gleichzeitig eine hohe Winkelauflösung zu erreichen. Zwei Demonstratoren werden gebaut, um bestimmte Aspekte des vorgeschlagenen Radarsystems zu implementieren und die Durchführbarkeit des allgemeinen Konzepts zu zeigen. Der erste Demonstrator weist eine große Apertur mit einem begrenzten Nebenkeulen-Niveau auf und verwendet einen modularen Ansatz. Die Module sind mit einem Radio-over-Fiber-System synchronisiert. Der zweite Demonstrator verwendet die zuvor entworfene Antennenanordnung, die mit einem Radar mit synthetischer Apertur realisiert wird. Die Fähigkeiten des Systems werden in einem realen Szenario demonstriert und die Rekonstruktion eines hochauflösenden dreidimensionalen Bildes aus den erfassten Daten gezeigt.
