Hello Everyone
I am designing a radar system with patch antennas WITHOUT phase shifter. I want to use monopulse or other techniques to know the direction of arrival. How can I setup the angle for the radiator and collector. For example, in the following pseudo code, it defines a radiator and a collector.
radiator = phased.Radiator('Sensor',ura_t,'OperatingFrequency',fc);collector = phased.Collector('Sensor',ula_r,'OperatingFrequency',fc);
And then I start to transmit and receive the signal, like this:
[tgtrng,tgtang] = rangeangle(tgt_pos,radar_pos);broad = [0;0];% Transmit
txsig = radiator(txsig,tgtang);% Propagate the signal and reflect off the target
txsig = channel(txsig,radar_pos,tgt_pos,radar_vel,tgt_vel);txsig = target(txsig);% received radar return
rxsig = collector(txsig,tgtang);
Based on the above code, in the "radiator" and "collector" functions, should I use the "tgtang" or "broad" as the angle? Again, note that this radar do not have phase shifter.
Thanks
