Abstract:The importance and the main difficulty of simulation of phased array antenna were given. And a modeling and simulating method was proposed. This method used array factor, directional factor and sidelobe suppression factor to respectively resolve the problems of beam configurations, antenna gain and the sidelobe and its change of directional diagram, and then synthesized. The simulation model after synthesizing was given. This simulation model ensured the theoretical precision, optimized and reduced the steps and quantities of simulating calculations. Using the simulation model, a simulation calculation instance of the radar antenna of AN/SPY-1D of Aegis system was given.
