Abstract
Owing to its range-angle-dependent transmit beampattern, the frequency diverse array (FDA) can provide the potential capability for novel radar detection, localization and interference suppression. However, the conventional FDA generates range-angle coupled beampattern, which degrades the performance of FDA in radar application. In this paper, stepped frequency pulses frequency diverse array (SFP-FDA) is investigated which can effectively remove the coupling in range-angle dimensions. Influence of parameter selections such as the frequency increment in pulse and element dimension on the proposed scheme are analyzed. The proposed method outperforms the conventional FDA, and it can be effectively utilized through reasonable parameter setting. Numerical results are given to verify the proposed scheme.
