Abstract:

At present,the radio fuzes are facing a severe information-based jamming environment.To ensure that radio fuzes can stably exert their damage effectiveness on the battlefield,the anti-information-based jamming-related technologies have become a research hotspot in the field of anti-jamming for radio fuzes.Based on the working process of fuze jammer,which first intercepts and then retransmits jamming signals,it is focused on the design of low intercepting point-like beam of radio fuze.A design principle of low intercepting point-like beam for radio fuzes based on the frequency diverse array (FDA)-multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is proposed on the basis of the unique S-shaped curved array pattern of FDA-MIMO technology.The impact of the frequency offset setting of array elements on beam synthesis is studied after analyzing the beam function of FDA-MIMO.A larger beam amplitude is achieved within a small neighborhood with Δr as radius in the vicinity of the peak point by setting a peak point and a power drop point within a relatively close distance Δr,while the beam amplitude drops rapidly in other ranges.Then,the frequency offsets of each array element are calculated by using the beam function,and the design method of the low intercepting point-like beam with the frequency offset setting formula of array elements as the core is obtained.Simulationed reults show that,under the guidance of the proposed low intercepting point-like beam design method,the FDA-MIMO beam has a range dimension half-power beam width of 1 meter and an angular dimension half-power beam width of 9 degrees.Its beam convergence performance and LPI performance are significantly better than those of other classic frequency offset setting methods.The proposed design method provides theoretical support for the low intercepting point-like beam design of radio fuzes based on FDA-MIMO,which can improve the LPI performance of radio fuzes and better exert their battlefield damage effectiveness.
