Abstract

This paper has analyzed the possibility about implementation of the low-cost, high-efficiency tracking antenna using flat panel antenna. Tracking antenna is consisted of four flat-antenna, comparators, tracking receiver, controller. We analyzed input signal of antenna array about the magnitude and phase of radio wave. In addition, We suggested the available tracking range through the analysis of output signal. We have minimized the error rate that happened on two path through design two path of the azimuth and elevation. Analysis results has a tracking range of ${\pm}3$ degrees, it is possible to implement.

본 논문에서는 평판안테나를 사용한 저비용, 고효율 추적안테나에 구현에 대한 가능성을 분석하였다. 추적안테나는 4개의 평판안테나, 비교기, 추적수신기, 제어기로 구성된다. 안테나 배열에 따른 입사되는 전파의 세기 및 위상을 분석하였다. 또한 추적수신기에서 출력되는 신호를 분석하여, 추적가능 범위를 제시하였다. 추적수신기는 고각과 방위각 2개의 수신 경로를 설계하여 2개의 경로에서 발생하는 오차를 최소화하였다. 분석결과 -3도~+3도의 추적범위를 가지며, 구현이 가능하다.
