Design and Realization of General Test Platform for Phased Array Antenna

摘要:

有源相控阵天线在完成装配之后要进行功能和性能测试，整个过程繁琐、复杂，并且不同架构的天线有不同的测试方法，现阶段天线测试系统多属于定制化研制。针对不同架构天线，提出通用化、标准化的测试硬件和构件化、模块化的软件平台，并基于某型雷达天线做了应用验证。结果表明天线测试通用平台相比于传统测试平台，测试精度基本一致，系统集成速度提升69%，软件复用率提升50%，开发人员能够快速、准确集成天线测试系统，使用人员能够使用标准天线测试流程提升测试效率，对有源相控雷达的研制具有重要意义。

Abstract:

Active phased array antennas must undergo functional and performance testing after assembly. The whole process is tedious and complicated, and antennas of different architectures have different testing methods. Nowadays, antenna testing systems are mostly customized developments. The generalized and standardized hardware equipment and componentized and modularized software platform are proposed for antennas of different architectures, and has been applied based on a certain type of radar antenna. The results present that compared with the traditional test platform, the test accuracy of the general antenna test platform is basically the same, the system integration speed is increased by 69%, and the software reuse rate is increased by 50%. The general antenna test platform is of great significance for developers to quickly and accurately integrate antenna test systems, for users to use standard antenna test procedures to improve test efficiency, and for the development of active phased array radars.
