  • Publication number: 20210270883
    Abstract: Provided are a directional pattern calculation method and apparatus for a beam pointing adjustable antenna. In the design method, key control factors are quantized, for example, a arrangement and combination modes for a plurality of slot units and wave-controlled codes for conducting and cut-off states of a slot unit, and different combinations of slot units and a far-field directional pattern of a controlled array antenna are evaluated, so that electrical performance indicators of the array antenna can be further evaluated. Weighting calculation is implemented for a directional pattern of a beam pointing adjustable antenna. Key information such as a form of a slot unit and a arrangement and combination modes for slot units can be globally optimized. Optimization on selection, a permutation, a combination, a spacing, and the like of slot units is greatly saved during antenna design, so as to focus on design of a structural form of a slot unit.
