Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aerospace microwave passive remote sensing radiometers, and particularly relates to a test device and a test method for the backward leakage of an antenna reflector of a spaceborne microwave radiometer. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing requirement for the ground resolution index of spaceborne microwave radiometers, the aperture of their antenna systems is getting larger and larger. The accurate calibration of antenna system parameters directly affects the high-precision detection of spaceborne microwave radiometers. Among them, the test of the backward leakage of the antenna reflector is one of the main factors affecting the detection accuracy of large-aperture spaceborne microwave radiometers. During the detection of spaceborne microwave radiometers, in addition to receiving the brightness temperature received by the main lobe of the antenna reflector, the horn antenna also receives the backward brightness temperature signal received by the backward leakage of the antenna reflector. Therefore, the magnitude of the backward leakage of the antenna reflector directly determines the detection accuracy of the spaceborne microwave radiometer. Due to the high requirement for the detection accuracy of spaceborne microwave radiometers, the measurement uncertainty requirement for the backward leakage of their antenna reflectors is generally below 0.1%. The uncertainty of the backward leakage of the antenna reflector tested by the traditional antenna near-field scanning system can no longer meet the high detection accuracy requirement of spaceborne microwave radiometers, and its limitations are as follows:
[0003] (1) The test result of the backward leakage of the antenna near-field scanning system is related to the size of the scanning area and the angle between the scanning plane and the beam direction. The scanning accuracy is about 0.1%, which cannot meet the test accuracy below 0.1%.
[0004] (2) The backward leakage of the antenna reflector needs to be tested separately at different frequencies and different positions. The single near-field test time is long, and the total test time is long. Summary of the Invention

[0042] As Figure 1 shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a spaceborne microwave radiometer antenna reflector backward leakage test device 100, including: an antenna reflector 110, which can reflect the low-temperature cold background environment signal; a moving component 120, which can provide a high-brightness temperature surface radiation signal and change the backward leakage brightness temperature of the antenna reflector 110; a metal hopper 130, which can shield other scene radiation signals except the downward atmospheric radiation and establish a low-brightness temperature cold background environment; a horn antenna 140, which can collect the cold background environment radiation signal reflected by the antenna reflector 110 and the backward leakage radiation signal of the antenna reflector 110; a standard radiometer 150, connected to the horn antenna 140, and the standard radiometer 150 converts the cold background environment radiation signal and the backward leakage radiation signal collected by the horn antenna 140 into voltage signals; a rotating device 160, connected to the horn antenna 140, and the rotating device 160 can simulate the on-orbit movement trajectory of the horn antenna 140; an angle measuring device 170, which can measure the angular position relationship between the horn antenna 140 and the antenna reflector 110; a data acquisition device 180, which is used to collect the output voltage of the standard radiometer 150 and the ambient temperature.
[0043] In order to improve the detection accuracy of spaceborne microwave radiometers, improve the test accuracy of the backward leakage of the antenna reflector 110, and reduce the test time, the present invention proposes a test device 100 for the backward leakage of the antenna reflector of a spaceborne microwave radiometer.

By establishing a low brightness temperature test environment and changing the backward leakage brightness temperature of the antenna reflector 110, and through the output change of the standard radiometer 150, the backward leakage of the antenna reflector 110 is directly measured. In the present invention, the standard radiometer 150 is used to directly test the backward leakage of the antenna reflector 110, so the test accuracy is higher; in the present invention, the rotating device 160 is used to simulate the on-orbit movement trajectory of the horn antenna 140 of the spaceborne microwave radiometer, and the backward leakage of the antenna reflector 110 at multiple positions can be tested, and the test time is short; in the present invention, the rotating device 160 can move multiple horn antennas 140 simultaneously, and multiple frequency points can be tested simultaneously; it has good popularization and application value.

[0046] Further, the area of the flat absorbing material 122 covers the backward leakage area of the antenna reflector 110. That is, the size of the flat absorbing material 122 is large enough so that the flat absorbing material 122 can cover the backward leakage area of the antenna reflector 110, and further the test accuracy can be higher.
[0047] Further, the emissivity of the flat absorbing material 122 is close to 1, and the radiation brightness temperature of the flat absorbing material 122 is approximately equal to its physical temperature.

By using the rotating device 160 to simulate the on-orbit movement trajectory of the spaceborne microwave radiometer horn antenna 140, the backward leakage of the antenna reflector 110 at multiple positions can be tested, and the test time is short.
[0050] Further, as Figure 1 shown, the pattern of the horn antenna 140 is consistent with that of the spaceborne microwave radiometer horn antenna 140. Figure 1 consistent.
[0051] Further, as Figure 1 shown, the metal bucket 130 can reflect the downwelling brightness temperature signal of the atmosphere to the main lobe of the antenna reflector 110.
[0052] Further, as Figure 1 shown, the angle measurement code disk can accurately measure the relative movement position relationship between the horn antenna 140 and the antenna reflector 110, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the backward leakage of the spaceborne microwave radiometer antenna reflector 110 and improving the detection accuracy of the spaceborne microwave radiometer.
