摘要： The deformation of reflector surface can be obtained by Misell algorithm using two far-field amplitude patterns: one with the antenna in focus and the other with the antenna defocused. For reflector antennas with active surface, the defocused pattern can be measured by adjusting the panels to get a more effective phase factor instead of offsetting the sub-reflector. The shape and size of phase factor have a great influence on the accuracy of convergent solution. To improve the performance of Misell algorithm, this study proposed an optimisation method for phase factors under different surface deformations. This method utilises Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm to get an estimation of the aperture distribution and then applies the particle swarm optimisation to optimise the phase factor parameterised by Zernike polynomials. Numerical simulations show that the proposed method is an efficient tool to achieve applicable phase factors under different surface deformations. Using the optimised phase factor, Misell algorithm can get a better convergent performance than traditional Misell algorithm.
