Adaptive array antenna transceiver apparatus

摘要

An adaptive array antenna transceiver apparatus provides: a Local signal generator 24 that outputs a signal having a frequency that corresponds to the difference between the reception frequency and the transmitting frequency; a coupler 15 that separates and extracts a part of the signals from the output of the transmitters 13; a switch 21 that selects the signal output from any one of the transmitters 13; a frequency converter 22 that converts the frequency of the signal selected by the switch 21; and a switch 23 that inputs signals output by the frequency converter 22 and selectively outputs them to any one of the plurality of paths. The transceiver further provides a switch 16 that selectively inputs a reception signal from a said antenna elements or a signal from said second switch into each of said receivers; and a calibration control processor 25 that controls the connection state of said switches 16, 21, 23, inputs the amplitude and phase values obtained at the receivers 14, and finds the calibration value of each of the branches of the array antenna.
