Problems solved by technology

[0005] The application of the traditional method of moments in the numerical analysis and calculation of electromagnetic fields has been very mature. However, when solving large-scale electrical problems, the computational complexity and memory requirements of the method of moments increase as the electromagnetic target unknown N increases. 2 ) or even O(N 3 ) growth, limited by computer storage resources, the traditional RWG moment method is difficult to effectively solve the problem of large-scale electricity, and the calculation of objects with complex shapes cannot obtain accurate results
[0006] Therefore, in view of the fact that the existing simulation calculation methods cannot meet the requirements of accuracy and speed at the same time, it is necessary to use the full-band simulation technology to conduct an overall accurate simulation of the antenna array with the radome, which will result in large-scale calculations and a large amount of simulation tasks. It needs to be realized through advanced algorithms and parallel solution technology, and can be applied to the requirements of fast calculation and accuracy of the electrical performance of the radome

Abstract

The invention discloses a full-band antenna array and radome integrated simulation method. The method comprises the following steps: establishing a geometric model of an antenna and a radome; Importing the mdoel into a material library; Performing grid division on the surface of the geometric model by adopting a high-order moment method based on a high-order basis function; Setting an excitation field; Calculating a near-far field value and surface current data by adopting a parallel solving method based on a block matrix; Extracting electrical performance parameters of the antenna cover; Andoptimizing the electrical performance parameters of the antenna cover until the electrical performance parameters meet the design requirements. On one hand, the number of unknown quantities generatedby the moment method is effectively reduced by adopting the high-order moment method based on the high-order basis function; on the other hand, the parallel solving method based on the partitioning matrix is used for improving the calculation scale and the calculation speed of the moment method, and the bottleneck problem that the moment method consumes time and memory is effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of radar antennas, in particular to an integrated simulation method for a full-frequency band antenna array and a radome. Background technique [0002] The radome is a kind of dielectric shell that protects the radar antenna. It is a covering made of natural or artificial dielectric materials, or a special-shaped electromagnetic window composed of a dielectric shell supported by a truss. It is located at the front end of the system, which protects the antenna from possible damage under various harsh environmental conditions. However, the existence of the radome will also affect the electrical performance of the antenna, including radiation pattern, power transmission loss, aiming error, etc. [0003] With the popularization of ANSYS HFSS software in antenna feeder system design, the simulation-based design process for antenna and its front-end feeder network has become increasingly mature. Advanced design ...
