Analyzing distributed power combining's efficiency for a mobile platform

Abstract

With a focus on mobile platform position perturbation, the effect of position perturbation on distributed power combining efficiency was examined.The average far-field beampattern, complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) expressions, and the approximate expression of the 3 dB beamwidth were derived after the model of distributed power combining with position perturbation was created.The findings demonstrate that increased position perturbation can cause the peak power, 3 dB beamwidth, average far-field beampattern, and CCDF of distributed power combining to continuously deteriorate.
