Abstract: In a phased-array communications system with a distributed processing architecture, channelized beamforming is used to minimize sampling and computational requirements, as well as reduce the data rates required for the communication of data and control information between system components. A central processor within the phased array system performs parallelized synthesis of channelized beams to form beams composite beams in sub-bands that overlap multiple channels. The phased array system incorporates a flexible scheme for channelization, channelized beamforming, and synthesis so that any number of composite beams may be synthesized in parallel at any one time. The system is capable of simultaneously processing beams that occupy overlapping subbands, and does not require restriction on the bandwidths or center frequencies of the subbands which the beams occupy.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for locally generating and synchronizing oscillation signals in a phased array system are presented. Multiple sub-array modules are used for collectively transmitting any number of beams on carrier frequencies, wherein each of the sub-array modules includes a transmit antenna, an oscillator configured to generate an oscillation signal, and a control element configured to phase lock the oscillation signal with other oscillation signals used in the system. The control element determines a phase difference measure that represents an average difference in phase between the oscillation signal and other oscillation signals used in the system, generates an average error signal, wherein the average error signal represents the phase difference measure, obtains information regarding oscillator trim signals applied with respect to the other oscillation signals generated in the system, and adjusts a frequency of the oscillation signal using the generated local oscillator trim signal.

Abstract: A method and system for beamforming a multi-element array using time delays is provided. The array includes transmit array elements and receive array elements. Each of the array elements includes a processor. Modulation and demodulation functions are performed at the processors of each array element. The modulation and demodulation functions utilize receive time offsets and phase shifts, and transmit time offsets and phase shifts, respectively. The receive time offsets and phase shifts, and the transmit time offsets and phase shifts are determined by a central processing unit in order to beamform received signals and transmitted signals, respectively. The array elements are arranged in a daisy chain fashion in order to facilitate communication of control parameters, communication of bits to be transmitted and distributed combining of demodulated baseband samples from one array element to another and communicating the combined samples to the central processing unit.
