Abstract

In order to reduce the volume and weight of phase array antenna in RF frequency, an integrated technology of multi-channel transceiver circuit and power division network in microwave is proposed for the tile type TR module. The component is integrated in a same dielectric substrate, the mounting interface of chips and power division network are on the same layer. Finally, a 8 × 8 array has been manufactured and tested to validate its function. The results show the integrated technology has good performance. It is very good to satisfy the miniaturization and lightweight of the T/R module in the active phased array antenna.

Summary

Introduction

The overall volume and weight of phase control antenna array depends on the individual T/R modules [1]. From the beginning of 1980s, many countries engaged in research on how to reduce the volume and weight of a single T /R module with a large capital investment and scientific research strength [2]. Because the volume of T/R module of tile type structure is only 1 /4 the size of the traditional brick structure [3]. It has incomparable advantages of reduced volume and weight, and it is easy to implement large-scale array [4]
