A variant of controlling the position of the phased array antenna beam at an intermediate frequency is described. The operating frequency of the antenna array does not depend on the angle of inclination of the maximum radiation pattern. The use of a specially formed heterodyne oscillation makes it possible to phase the antenna array modules without knowing their exact location within the line. The use of a digital control circuit for each module of the antenna array allows you to control its resolution at various stages of the radio system.
