Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of terahertz rough surface modeling technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for modeling the scattering field of a combined rough surface in the terahertz band. Background Technology
[0002] Terahertz waves typically refer to electromagnetic waves with frequencies between 0.1 THz and 10 THz. Compared to microwaves, terahertz waves have shorter wavelengths, placing them on the same order of magnitude as the fine structures of target surfaces. Terahertz waves are sensitive to the fine structures and roughness of target surfaces. Research on the scattering characteristics of targets in the terahertz band needs to consider the influence of surface roughness fluctuations, requiring characterization of these fluctuations in target scattering modeling. There are various methods for characterizing the fluctuations of rough surfaces. A widely used method is to simulate surface roughness fluctuations through stochastic processes. Based on this, a series of approximate calculation methods for electromagnetic scattering of rough surfaces have been developed, such as the Kirchhoff approximation method, the perturbation method, the dual-scale approximation method combining large and small scales, and the rough surface approximation method based on integral equations. These methods are mostly used for electromagnetic scattering modeling calculations of random rough surfaces in natural environments (such as land and sea surfaces). They mainly rely on macroscopic roughness parameters for modeling calculations, focusing on characterizing the distribution of scattered energy, but lacking the ability to depict fine structures. As the frequency increases to the terahertz band, the electrical size of the target increases, and the number of surface elements for constructing rough surfaces increases dramatically. Current research on the scattering characteristics of rough targets in the terahertz band suffers from high modeling complexity and low computational efficiency.
[0003] In addition to the method of generating rough surfaces using stochastic processes, the simulation of rough surface undulations can also be achieved by constructing a randomly distributed hemispherical array for equivalent characterization. Compared to constructing rough surfaces using stochastic processes, the hemispherical model can characterize incoherent scattering, improving the accuracy of modeling the scattering characteristics of electrically large rough surfaces in the terahertz band. This provides a high-precision model for studying the scattering characteristics of rough targets in the terahertz band and, to some extent, improves the efficiency of modeling and computation. V. Twersky studied the scattering characteristics of rough surfaces based on the hemispherical model and derived the calculation formula for the scattering field of the hemispherical array model under specific distribution parameter conditions. However, the hemispherical model scattering field calculation formula proposed by V. Twersky is not applicable to the undulation characteristics of rough surfaces in the current terahertz band. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a corresponding hemispherical model based on the undulation characteristics of rough surfaces in the terahertz band and propose corresponding calculation methods for the scattering field of the hemispherical array and the scattering field of the hemispherical-plate combination.
[0004] However, there are currently few methods for modeling the scattering characteristics of rough surfaces in the terahertz band. Existing modeling and calculation methods based on macroscopic roughness parameters cannot accurately characterize the roughness fluctuations of the model, and the amount of information provided is insufficient to support the needs of scaled-down inversion and refined detection imaging. Furthermore, due to the dramatic increase in the number of surface elements of electrically large rough surfaces in the terahertz band, existing methods are time-consuming for modeling and calculation. Existing hemispherical roughness models in the microwave band can only calculate the scattering field of the hemispherical array within a small range of parameters, which cannot meet the needs of modeling and calculating rough surfaces in the terahertz band. Summary of the Invention

[0052] Figure 6 This is a structural block diagram of a combined scattering field modeling device for a rough surface in the terahertz band, as shown in one embodiment. Detailed Implementation
[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a combined volume scattering field method for rough surfaces in the terahertz band is provided, including the following steps:
[0055] Step 102: Obtain the normal RCS of hemispheres with different radii; derive the normal RCS of the planar elements covered by hemispheres with different radii using the surface element integral method; normalize the normal RCS of the hemispheres using the normal RCS of the planar elements covered by the hemispheres to obtain the normalized curve of the normal RCS of the hemispheres.
[0056] First, the scattering fields of hemispheres with different radii are obtained through simulation calculations, with corresponding geometric scenes as follows: Figure 3 As shown. The parameter range of the hemispherical model targeted by this invention is as follows: the radii of the hemispheres constituting the hemispherical array follow a Gaussian distribution, with a mean radius a. mean The range of values is Standard deviation of radius a std The range of values for is a std <0.2λ, the mean b of the hemispherical distribution interval mean Range of values b mean >λ;
[0057] The normalization method proposed in this application is the foundation and key to the entire invention. Based on the formula for solving the scattering field of a surface element using the surface element integral method, the scattering field corresponding to the planar surface element covered by the hemisphere can be derived. Furthermore, its corresponding normal RCS is obtained, and the normal RCS of the corresponding hemisphere is normalized using the normal RCS of this planar surface element. This yields the trend of the hemisphere's RCS changing with its radius. This normalization result can not only characterize the RCS of a single hemisphere with respect to its radius, but also, within a certain parameter range, can be used to characterize the trend of the normal RCS of a randomly distributed hemispherical array with respect to the mean radius of the hemispherical array, providing a normalized characterization model for studying the scattering characteristics of different hemispherical arrays.
[0058] The normalized hemispherical normal RCS model is used to solve the scattering field of the hemisphere and the hemispherical array, which expands the applicable range of hemispherical parameters and breaks through the limitation of the hemispherical radius on the approximate formula of the hemispherical scattering field, so that the hemispherical model can meet the requirements of modeling the scattering characteristics of rough surfaces in the terahertz band.
[0059] Step 104: Fit the normalized curve of the hemispherical normal RCS to obtain the fitted value; correct the approximate value of the single hemispherical scattering field based on the fitted value to obtain the corrected hemispherical scattering field.
[0060] By fitting the normalized RCS curve of the hemispherical normal and using the normalization results to correct the approximate scattering field of hemispheres with different radii, it is possible to quickly calculate the scattering field of hemispheres with larger radii and hemispherical arrays, thus meeting the parameter requirements of hemispherical array models in the terahertz band.
[0061] Step 106: Construct a hemispherical array scattering field composed of multiple randomly distributed hemispheres using the relative positional relationship of the hemispheres and the corrected hemispherical scattering field.
[0062] By utilizing the relative positions of the hemispheres, phase factors of the scattered fields at different hemisphere positions are constructed. Based on the principle of vector superposition, the expression for the scattered field of the hemisphere array is derived, realizing the modeling and characterization of the contribution of incoherent scattering, which is beneficial for subsequent calculation of the scattered field of the combined body.
[0063] Step 108: Calculate the ratio of the area of all hemispherical-covered planes to the area of the plate in the assembly based on the distribution parameters of the hemispherical array and the size of the plate. Determine the energy ratio of the incoherent and coherent scattered fields. Calculate the normal RCS value of the hemispherical-plate assembly using the area ratio.
[0064] Step 110: The scattered field of the hemispherical array and the scattered field of the smooth plate are vector superimposed according to the incoherent and coherent scattering superposition method. After the normal RCS of the hemispherical-plate combination is corrected, the scattered field of the hemispherical-plate combination is obtained.
[0065] The scattering field of the hemispherical-plate assembly is considered to consist of two parts: coherent scattering and incoherent scattering. The energy ratio of the incoherent and coherent scattering fields is determined based on the ratio of the area of the plane covered by the hemispherical assembly to the area of the plate in the assembly. The scattering field of the hemispherical-plate assembly is obtained based on the idea of superimposing coherent and incoherent scattering. This application obtains the scattering field of the hemispherical-plate assembly based on the idea of superimposing coherent and incoherent scattering, realizes the modeling and calculation of the scattering characteristics of the hemispherical-plate assembly in the terahertz band, provides an efficient method for modeling and calculating the scattering characteristics of rough surfaces, and also provides a high-precision scattering characteristic characterization model for RCS scaling and inversion, and refined imaging detection of rough targets in the terahertz band.
[0066] In the aforementioned modeling method for the combined scattering field of rough surfaces in the terahertz band, the normal RCS of a single hemisphere is first normalized and the result is fitted to characterize it, revealing the variation trend of the hemisphere's RCS with its radius. Then, the approximate formula for the hemisphere's scattering field is corrected using the normalized RCS and applied to solve for the scattering field of hemispheres with larger radii. This enables rapid calculation of the scattering field of hemispheres with larger radii and hemisphere arrays, expanding the applicability of the hemisphere scattering field formula and meeting the parameter requirements of terahertz band hemisphere array models. Furthermore, the phase factor of the scattering field at different hemisphere positions is constructed using the relative positional relationship of the hemispheres, and the model is derived based on the principle of vector superposition. The scattering field expression of the hemispherical array is derived to model and characterize the contribution of incoherent scattering, which is beneficial for subsequent calculation of the scattering field of the combined system. Then, based on the ratio of the area of the plane elements covered by the hemisphere to the area of the uncovered plane elements, the energy ratio of the coherent and incoherent scattering fields is determined. Based on the idea of superimposing coherent and incoherent scattering, the scattering field of the hemispherical array is vector-superimposed with the scattering field of the smooth plate. After correction by the RCS of the hemispherical-plate combination, the scattering field of the hemispherical-plate combination is obtained, realizing the modeling and calculation of the scattering field of the hemispherical-plate combination in the terahertz band, providing an efficient method for modeling and calculating the scattering characteristics of rough surfaces.
