Technique of Optically Controlled Phased Array Antenna on Vehicle

Liu Yun-zhi

Abstract

A system of optically controlled phased array antenna on vehicle for satellite communication is presented.Key technique of the system is analyzed and performance of antenna element,array and optical true time delay units is tested through computer simulation.Simulation shows that optically controlled phased array antenna has a feature of wideband and wide-angle scanning.Optically controlled phased array antenna with this feature overcome a difficulty that conventional phased array cannot be applied for wideband system.
