Description

Technical Field

[0002] High-altitude electromagnetic pulses (HEMPs) are characterized by wide coverage, short duration, high peak field strength, and broad spectral range. With the increasing informatization and automation of various power equipment and the widespread application of electronic integration technology, electromagnetic pulses pose a significant threat to critical national infrastructure such as power systems and oil and gas pipelines. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct electromagnetic pulse radiation effect tests on these electrical and electronic devices.

[0003] Existing electromagnetic pulse radiation field simulation equipment is mostly large-scale electromagnetic pulse simulators, such as boundary wave simulators and radiation wave simulators. These simulators occupy a large area and emit strong electromagnetic radiation, generally requiring construction in remote areas far from cities and densely populated regions. For power electronic equipment under development, it is difficult to conduct frequent electromagnetic pulse tests using large simulators; for fixed facilities or large devices, it is difficult to move them to the simulation test site for testing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable, lightweight electromagnetic pulse directional radiation system that can be moved to the site of electrical and electronic equipment to conduct irradiation effect tests.

[0004] The main problems with existing electromagnetic pulse directional radiation systems are: low antenna radiation efficiency, resulting in narrow pulse widths of simulated electromagnetic fields that do not meet the requirements of relevant standards such as GJB 8848 for electromagnetic pulse waveforms; excessively high electric field amplitudes in non-primary polarization directions, with most radiated electric fields having only vertical polarization, making it difficult to generate electric fields with multiple polarization directions, thus limiting the ability to test the radiation effects of electrical and electronic equipment under electric fields with different polarization directions; and the use of a flat antenna structure, which is heavy and inconvenient to move and raise.

[0049] Preferably, the P×M electromagnetic composite dipole of the directional radiating wire grating antenna exhibits the following high-efficiency radiation conditions:

[0050]

[0051] In the formula: It is a magnetic dipole, formed by the current in the upper wire grid 1, the lower wire grid 2 and the loading circuit after a load is applied to the end of the antenna; It is an electric dipole, formed by the accumulation of charges in the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2; c is the speed of light.

[0052] Furthermore, the dimensions of the directional radiating wire grating antenna satisfy:

[0056] The movable rotating support includes a front support plate 13, a rear support plate 14, and a movable base 15. The front support plate 13 secures the directional radiation wire grid antenna by clamping the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2. The rear support plate 14 secures the upper and lower loading circuits and the high-voltage differential pulse source 12. The movable base 15 secures the front support plate 13 and the rear support plate 14 and is equipped with casters at the bottom, allowing the entire electromagnetic pulse directional radiation system to be raised by placing the lower part of the base on a forklift or other device.

[0057] Furthermore, the front and rear support plates 14 are circular on the outside and can rotate on the movable base 15, with the purpose of adjusting the polarization direction of the electromagnetic pulse radiation environment.

[0058] Preferably, the front and rear support plates 14 adopt a hollow structure, which aims to reduce weight while ensuring strength.

[0059] Preferably, the front and rear support plates 14 are made of non-metallic materials, such as bakelite or fiberglass, in order to avoid affecting the electric field waveform generated by the antenna.

[0060] The high-voltage differential pulse source 12 is mounted on the rear support plate 14, and the two differential output electrodes are connected to the input terminals of the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2.

[0064] U≥h×70kV / m.

[0065] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0066] Example

[0067] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment of the invention discloses an electromagnetic pulse directional radiation system with adjustable polarization direction, including a directional radiation wire grid antenna, a movable rotating support, and a high-voltage differential pulse source 12. The directional radiation wire grid antenna includes an upper wire grid 1, a lower wire grid 2, an upper rolled edge 3, a lower rolled edge 4, an upper adapter plate 5, a lower adapter plate 6, an upper loading circuit horizontal section 7, a lower loading circuit horizontal section 8, an upper loading circuit vertical section 9, a lower loading circuit vertical section 10, and a load resistor 11. The movable rotating support includes a front support plate 13, a rear support plate 14, a movable base 15, and rollers 16.

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper grid 1, upper rolled edge 3, upper loading loop horizontal segment 7, upper loading loop vertical segment 9 and lower grid 2, lower rolled edge 4, lower loading loop horizontal segment 8 and lower loading loop vertical segment 10 are symmetrical structures.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, the ends of the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2 are connected to the upper rolled edge 3 and the lower rolled edge 4 respectively, and each pull wire is aligned and kept at equal distance; the input ends of the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2 are connected to the upper differential output electrode 17 and the lower differential output electrode 18 of the high voltage differential pulse source 12 respectively, and the pull wires are kept at equal distance.

[0070] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper rolled edge 3 is connected to the upper adapter plate 5, then to the horizontal section 7 of the upper loading circuit, then to the vertical section 9 of the upper loading circuit, and finally to the upper end of the load resistor 11; the lower rolled edge 4 is connected to the lower adapter plate 6, then to the horizontal section 8 of the lower loading circuit, then to the vertical section 10 of the lower loading circuit, and finally to the lower end of the load resistor 11.

[0071] The upper grid 1, lower grid 2, upper rolled edge 3, lower rolled edge 4, upper loading circuit horizontal section 7, lower loading circuit horizontal section 8, upper loading circuit vertical section 9, and lower loading circuit vertical section 10 are all composed of multiple taut conductive metal wires to prevent the cable from tangling during rotation. The spacing between adjacent wires in the upper grid 1 and lower grid 2 is no more than 10cm to reduce high-frequency loss caused by varying cable density.

[0072] Load resistor 11 contains n resistors, where n is the same as the number of pull wires in the upper and lower loading circuits. The parallel resistance R of load resistor 11 is approximately equal to the characteristic impedance Z of the directional radiating grating antenna. CThe purpose is to reduce end reflections and form a matched loading loop.

[0073] 1) Antenna radiation efficiency optimization based on P×M electromagnetic combined dipole

[0074] This invention proposes a theory for optimizing the radiation efficiency of TEM horn antennas based on P×M electromagnetic combined oscillators, which guides the design of TEM horn antennas with load-loading loops, such as directional radiation wire grid antennas.

[0075] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the working principle of a directional radiating wire grating antenna. In the low-frequency band, the antenna exhibits capacitive behavior, with the upper wire grating 1 and lower wire grating 2 accumulating charges to form an electric dipole. After applying load resistor 11 at the end, the current in the loading circuit forms a magnetic dipole. At this point, the directional radiating wire grating antenna forms an electromagnetic composite vibrator.

[0076] Establish such as Figure 5 The spherical coordinate system shown is used. The radiation field of the electric dipole in the spherical coordinate system is:

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] The wave impedance of the electromagnetic field of an electric dipole is:

[0080]

[0081] The radiation field of a magnetic dipole in spherical coordinates is:

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] The wave impedance of the electromagnetic field of a magnetic dipole is:

[0085]

[0086]

[0087] If the electric dipole is along the z-direction and the magnetic dipole is along the y-direction, according to the superposition principle, the combined radiation field of the electric and magnetic dipoles is:

[0088]

[0089]

[0090] If electric dipole and magnetic dipole satisfy:

[0091]

[0092] Then there is,

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] As can be seen from the above equation, the electromagnetic field has components in all three directions, with E being the dominant component in the far field. θ and H φ Quantity.

[0096]

[0097]

[0098] In the +x direction, cosφ = sinθ = 1, E θ =E0(G1+G2), E θ and H φ It reaches its maximum value. In the -x direction, cosφ = -1, sinθ = 1, E θ =E0(G1-G2)=0,E θ and H φ All values ​​are 0. The P×M antenna exhibits good directivity.

[0099] The vertical polarization component impedance is:

[0100]

[0101] In the formula: Z0 is the vacuum wave impedance.

[0102] The horizontal polarization component impedance is:

[0103]

[0104] From the above equation, we can see that in the far-field region, G1 = G2. In the near-field area, G1 ≠ G2. Anisotropy It is the same everywhere, but not equal to Z0. In particular, along the +x direction, cosφ=sinθ=1, the horizontal component E of the radiation field φ H θ and radial component E r H r All are 0, at this time At this time, the radiation field exhibits transverse electromagnetic wave characteristics.

[0105] Figure 6Let Z represent the wave impedance along the +x direction for the electric dipole, magnetic dipole, and P×M electromagnetic combined oscillator. Compared to the electric dipole and magnetic dipole, the P×M electromagnetic combined oscillator exhibits Z0 along the +x direction in both the near and far fields, resulting in significantly improved radiation characteristics.

[0106] Based on the above analysis, the efficient radiation condition of the P×M electromagnetic combined dipole for a directional radiating wire grating antenna is:

[0107]

[0108] In the formula: It is a magnetic dipole, formed by the current in the upper wire grid 1, the lower wire grid 2 and the loading circuit after a load is applied to the end of the antenna; It is an electric dipole, formed by the accumulation of charges in the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2; c is the speed of light.

[0109] In this invention, the electric dipole of the directional radiation wire grating antenna The expression is:

[0110]

[0111] In the formula: Z0 is the vacuum wave impedance; ε0 is the vacuum dielectric constant; l is the horizontal length from the end of the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2 to their extended intersection point; h is the vertical distance from the end of the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2; U is the total differential voltage fed into the antenna; Z is the unit vector in the vertical direction. C This is the characteristic impedance of a directional radiating wire grating antenna.

[0112] Magnetic dipole of a directional radiation wire grating antenna The expression is:

[0113]

[0114] In the formula: A is the total area of ​​the directional radiating grating antenna in the side direction, and R is the parallel resistance value R of the load resistor 11.

[0115] To improve antenna radiation performance, it is necessary to meet the following requirements. In addition, R≈Z C Therefore, the dimensions of the directional radiating wire grating antenna in this invention satisfy the following relationship:

[0116] A=cε0lhZ0

[0117] At this point, the radiation performance of the directional radiating wire grating antenna is maximized, thus enabling the pulse width of the radiation field to meet the waveform requirements of the GJB 8848 electromagnetic pulse.

[0118] 2) Antenna impedance design

[0119] Because the leading edge of the radiated field waveform is relatively fast, directional radiating wire grating antennas require high impedance. The antenna impedance calculation formula is as follows:

[0120]

[0121] In the formula: w is the width of the upper grid 1; h is the vertical distance between the ends of the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2.

[0122] In this invention, to ensure that the antenna has high impedance to generate a radiation field waveform with a fast leading edge, the aspect ratio w / h is not greater than 2.

[0123] 3) Differential Design

[0124] Traditional directional radiating antennas based on TEM horns consist of an antenna electrode and a ground reflector electrode, resulting in high radiation field intensity in non-primary polarization directions (such as the electric field component in the horizontal polarization direction of a vertically polarized electric field antenna), which does not meet the requirements of the GJB 8848 standard.

[0125] In this invention, the directional radiating wire grating antenna adopts differential feeding and has a symmetrical structure. The purpose is to reduce the radiation field intensity of the antenna in the non-primary polarization direction, so that the electric field amplitude ratio in the primary / non-primary polarization direction is greater than 20dB.

[0126] 4) Examples of dimensional parameters in the embodiments of the invention

[0127] In this embodiment of the invention, the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2 are 2m long, 1m wide, and 1m high; the upper rolled edge 3 and the lower rolled edge 4 are arcs with a radius of 0.25m.

[0128] The upper grid 1, lower grid 2, upper rolled edge 3, and lower rolled edge 4 are each composed of 20 taut copper wires with a diameter of 4mm, with the interval between adjacent wires not exceeding 5cm; the upper loading circuit horizontal section 7, lower loading circuit horizontal section 8, upper loading circuit vertical section 9, and lower loading circuit vertical section 10 are each composed of 6 taut copper wires with a diameter of 4mm.

[0129] Load resistor 11 contains 6 resistors, each with a resistance of 1068Ω and a withstand voltage of over 100kV. The parallel resistance is 178Ω, which is the characteristic impedance of the antenna.

[0130] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front support plate 13 of the movable rotating bracket fixes the directional radiation wire grid antenna by clamping the upper wire grid 1 and the lower wire grid 2. The rear support plate 14 fixes the upper loading circuit horizontal section 7, the lower loading circuit horizontal section 8, and the high-voltage differential pulse source 12. The movable base 15 fixes the front support plate 13 and the rear support plate 14, and is equipped with casters 16 at the bottom. The entire electromagnetic pulse directional radiation system can be raised by placing the lower part of the movable base 15 on a forklift or other device.

[0131] As an optional embodiment, the front support plate 13 and the rear support plate 14 are circular in shape and are both set in corresponding grooves, allowing them to rotate on the movable base 15. The rotation axis is the line connecting the high-voltage differential pulse source 12 to the center of the antenna aperture, thereby adjusting the polarization direction of the electromagnetic pulse radiation environment. The front support plate 13 and the rear support plate 14 adopt a hollow structure and non-metallic materials such as bakelite and fiberglass, which reduces weight while ensuring strength and avoids affecting the electric field waveform generated by the antenna.

[0132] Since the upper grid 1, lower grid 2, upper rolled edge 3, lower rolled edge 4, upper loading circuit, and lower loading circuit are composed of multiple taut conductive metal wires, cable tangling during rotation can be avoided.

The input ends of the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2 are respectively connected to the upper differential output electrode 17 and the lower differential output electrode 18 of the high-voltage differential pulse source 12. Both the upper differential output electrode 17 and the lower differential output electrode 18 are made of copper.

[0135] During operation, the pulse source simultaneously generates positive and negative voltages with the same leading edge, pulse width, and amplitude on the upper differential output electrode 17 and the lower differential output electrode 18, respectively. The waveform is a double exponential wave with a leading edge no slower than 2ns and a pulse width no less than 30ns. The ratio of the sum of the peak values ​​of the output differential voltages U to the vertical distance h between the ends of the upper grid 1 and the lower grid 2 is as follows:

[0136] U≥h×70kV / m

[0137] The outer casing of the high-voltage differential pulse source 12 is made of non-metallic materials, such as fiberglass and nylon, in order to improve insulation and reduce the weight of the pulse source; the internal structure is gas-insulated to reduce weight.

[0138] In this embodiment of the invention, the circuit schematic of the high-voltage differential pulse source 12 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the high-voltage differential pulse source 12 adopts a Marx generator plus a storage circuit, which enables the pulse source to generate high-voltage pulses with nanosecond-level leading edges.

[0139] When the directional radiation system starts working, the Marx generator is charged by DC on both sides, and the isolation resistor is R0 with a resistance of 10MΩ.

[0140] When the pulse source is triggered, switch S1 is closed, and the main capacitor C of the Marx generator... m Through inductor Lm To C s During charging, the storage capacitor C... s The voltage is:

[0141]

[0142] When passing After a time interval, the storage capacitor C s The voltage on it reaches V0, at which point it is stored in the Marx generator C. m All electrical energy has been transferred to the medium-sized storage capacitor C. s In the middle. At this time, switch S2 is closed, and the data is stored in C. s The energy in the circuit is rapidly released to the directional radiating wire grating antenna through the right-hand loop, generating an electromagnetic pulse field via the antenna.

[0143] In this embodiment of the invention, capacitor C m The capacitance is 650pF, and the capacitor C is... S The inductance is 550pF, and the inductor L m The voltage is 200μH, the charging voltage is ±50kV, and the pulse source outputs a double exponential voltage wave with a peak voltage of 100kV, a pulse width of 35ns, and a leading edge of 1.5ns.
