Abstract:
A method and apparatus for measuring the synthetic reception pattern of an adaptive array antenna, which are divided into a hardware apparatus and a measurement method. The hardware apparatus includes a wavefront simulator, a GNSS simulator, an external controller, a signal measurement unit, and a GNSS receiver. The measurement method using the hardware apparatus includes setting a direction of arrival of jamming and calculating a weight vector, fixing weight vectors at the calculated weight vector and collecting outputs of an array antenna system for all test signals, and displaying the collected data on a grid of a 2D plane. In accordance with the present invention, a weight vector calculated under a specific jamming situation is maintained for all test signals, so that the synthetic reception pattern of the array antenna system can be measured.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a multi-band Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) fixed reception pattern antenna apparatus, which can mitigate interference signals using spatial filtering by optimizing the radiation pattern of an antenna. The multi-band GNSS fixed reception pattern antenna apparatus includes a broadband antenna radiator for receiving at least two types of GNSS signals, and a plurality of partition walls for enclosing the antenna radiator around the antenna radiator. Heights and intervals of each of the plurality of partition walls are independent of frequencies of signals desired to be blocked.
