[0002] The EBG (Electromagnetic Band-Gap) structure is a periodic structure that can achieve the electromagnetic bandgap effect and has become a hot topic in microwave and millimeter wave technology research. EBG structure devices have the characteristics of low loss and good heat dissipation. These characteristics make the EBG structure have great application potential and value in the field of microwave engineering, especially antenna technology.

[0003] Periodic structures have important engineering applications and academic research value in many fields such as antennas and radar detection. From phased array antennas to frequency selective surfaces to electromagnetic metamaterials that have emerged in recent years, their basic forms are all in the form of periodic or quasi-periodic structures. In the electromagnetic field simulation process after the design of these structures is completed, electromagnetic numerical calculations will be performed on their models. Efficient and accurate simulation and analysis of large-scale periodic arrays has always been one of the important and difficult problems in the field of electromagnetic computing.

[0004] Traditional electromagnetic simulation methods will generate very large unknowns when calculating large-scale periodic structures, which will put a heavy burden on computing resources. As the array scale continues to expand and the antenna structure complexity continues to increase, the number of grids after the test model is discretized is getting larger and larger, and the traditional finite element method (FEM) is becoming increasingly difficult to cope with.

[0005] In view of this, it is very meaningful to propose a modeling and simulation method for infinite two-dimensional periodic array antennas. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the problem that the traditional electromagnetic simulation method will generate very large unknowns when calculating large-scale periodic structures, which will bring a great burden to computing resources. With the further expansion of the array scale and the further increase of the complexity of the antenna structure, the number of grids after the discretization of the test model is getting larger and larger, and the traditional finite element method (FEM) is becoming more and more difficult to cope with. The present invention provides a modeling and simulation method for infinite two-dimensional periodic array antennas to solve the above problems.

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention proposes a modeling and simulation method for an infinite two-dimensional periodic array antenna, the method comprising the following steps:

[0008] Design and build a unit EBG patch antenna structure in COMSOL, which consists of a top EBG metal layer, a magneto-electric dipole layer, and a ground plane;

[0009] In COMSOL, set the simulation parameters of this unit EBG patch antenna, such as material parameters, port excitation, and frequency sweep range, set the x and y directions to Bloch periodic boundaries, and the z direction to the first-order absorption boundary, and simulate and analyze the performance of the array unit antenna when the plane wave incident angles θ are 0°, 30°, and 60° respectively;

[0010] The mesh data file of the COMSOL discrete array unit antenna model is read, and the hybrid finite element fast algorithm is used to simulate and analyze the model. The algorithm calculates and analyzes the electromagnetic problems of infinite two-dimensional periodic array antennas accurately, efficiently and with low memory consumption, providing theoretical analysis and fast simulation methods for the engineering application of periodic structures.

[0011] This method first designs and constructs a unit EBG patch antenna structure in COMSOL. The unit EBG patch antenna structure consists of a top EBG metal layer, a magneto-electric dipole layer, and a ground plane.

[0012] Secondly, the infinite two-dimensional periodic array antenna model is established in COMSOL and the performance of this antenna is analyzed, mainly in:

[0013] In COMSOL, set the material parameters, port excitation and other information of this EBG patch antenna. The simulation range of this model is 1-40GHz. Set the x and y directions as Bloch periodic boundaries, and the z direction as the first-order absorption boundary.

[0014] The antenna performance of the array unit antenna model is simulated and analyzed when the plane wave incident angle θ is 0°, 30° and 60° respectively.

[0015] Thirdly, the hybrid finite element fast algorithm is used to simulate and analyze this model, mainly in the following aspects:

[0016] Read the mesh data file of the COMSOL discrete array unit antenna model, and use hybrid finite element fast algorithm simulation to perform electromagnetic calculation analysis on this model;

[0017] The hybrid finite element fast algorithm based on Bloch periodic boundary is suitable for fast modeling and simulation of infinite two-dimensional periodic array antennas. The hybrid finite element fast algorithm based on Bloch periodic boundary includes:

[0039] In the above equation, The approximate equivalent is 1+0.5δ, where

[0040] Further preferably, the matrix equation to be solved in the above formula is subjected to model reduction. A low-dimensional Krylov subspace Q of the above equation can be obtained by using a modal reduction technique based on a second-order Arnoldi algorithm. The algorithm for constructing the low-dimensional subspace specifically includes:
