Beamforming makes possible a focused communication method. It is extensively employed in many disciplines involving electromagnetic waves, including arrayed ultrasonic, optical, and high-speed wireless communication. Conventional beam steering often requires the addition of separate active amplitude phase control units after each radiating element. The high power consumption and complexity of large-scale phased arrays can be overcome by reducing the number of active controllers, pushing beamforming into satellite communications and deep space exploration. Here, we suggest a brand-new design for a phased array antenna with a dimension reduced cascaded angle offset (DRCAO-PAA). Furthermore, the suggested DRCAO-PAA was compressed by using the concept of singular value deposition. To pave the way for practical application the particle swarm optimization algorithm and deep neural network Transformer were adopted. Based on this theoretical framework, an experimental board was built to verify the theory. Finally, the 16/8/4 -array beam steering was demonstrated by using 4/3/2 active controllers, respectively.
