Chebyshev synthesis method, flat-top pattern, low sidelobe, millimeter wave radar antenna

摘要

In this paper, a planar millimeter wave radar array antenna with flat-top pattern is proposed for wide detection angle. Firstly, the Chebyshev synthesis method is used to design the linear array with high gain and low sidelobe pattern which works in the 24 GHz frequency band. The maximum gain of the linear array is roughly 15 dBi, and the main-sidelobe ratio is close to 20 dB. By setting the excitations and phases distribution of the planar array feeding network, a 5××4 antenna array with a flat-top pattern is obtained. The simulated and measured results show that the radar antenna array has a wide half-power beamwidth of 88 degrees, which can ensure that the automotive radar has a longer detection range and a larger monitoring angle.
