Therefore, there is an urgent need for protection against high-intensity radiation fields from UAVs, particularly for predicting the coupling of high-intensity radiation fields in airborne cables. Currently, simulations of high-intensity radiation cable coupling for UAVs mainly rely on spatial field coupling, which cannot accurately calculate the coupling voltage of the cable's internal core wires, hindering the quantitative decomposition of cable protection indicators. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a method for predicting UAV cable coupling in high-intensity radiation fields based on transient electromagnetic / circuit simulations. Summary of the Invention
