专利汇可以提供Bistatic radar system专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且A bistatic radar system using separate antennas for transmit and receive and taking advantage of the fact that the net radar resolution depends on the product of the two gain patterns. In one illustrated system of the invention, a low resolution transmitter pattern is combined with an ambiguous high resolution receiver pattern formed of a thinned array of phase controlled radiating elements. The elements are separated by a distance greater than the wavelength of the RF signal. In this thinned array approach, the suppressed receive grating lobes may be placed at alternate nulls of the transmit pattern by spacing the receiver array elements to be approximately one-half the transmitted antenna width. The transmit radar forms a conventional sector scanning antenna pattern that illuminates the forward area and the receiving antenna has elements spaced so they form a multilobe pattern that contains selected spacing of grating lobes. In operation only one of these grating lobes is illuminated by the transmit pattern. The transmit and receive antennas are scanned in synchronism either sequentially or in some jump scan sequence to provide the sector scan display. The system is operable substantially without microwave waveguides along the thinned array by providing a local oscillator signal that is phase shifted to control the antenna pointing.,下面是Bistatic radar system专利的具体信息内容。

2. The combination of claim 1 wherein said corporate feed supplying said local oscillator signal to each of said phase shifters is constructed of coaxial cable.
3. The combination of claim 1 including local oscillator means and a plurality of phase shifters and mixers with a mixer coupled to each antenna element and a phase shifter coupled between said local oscillator means and each mixer, and including means to control the phase of saiD plurality of phase shifters.
