Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electromagnetic interference analysis, specifically relating to a comprehensive electronic test field electromagnetic interference simulation analysis method based on the UE4 engine. Background Technology

[0002] Electromagnetic interference (EMC) refers to the interference phenomenon caused by the interaction of electromagnetic waves with electronic components. There are two types: conducted interference and radiated interference. Conducted interference refers to the coupling (interference) of a signal from one electrical network to another through a conductive medium. Radiated interference refers to the coupling (interference) of a signal from an interference source to another electrical network through space. In high-speed PCB and system design, high-frequency signal lines, integrated circuit pins, and various connectors can all become sources of radiated interference with antenna characteristics, emitting electromagnetic waves and affecting the normal operation of other systems or subsystems within the same system. In wireless communication systems, transmitters generate out-of-band electromagnetic radiation such as adjacent channels and spurious signals while transmitting useful signals; while receivers receive useful signals, they may not only be blocked by interference signals falling within their bandwidth, but also experience out-of-band blocking due to the nonlinearity of the receiver. Therefore, the inherent frequency interference in wireless technology leads to significant electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues.

[0003] Electromagnetic interference analysis analyzes the mutual interference between communication devices. In electronic test ranges, which require testing of multiple types of equipment for communication, countermeasures, and other disciplines, there are problems such as high test frequency, serious frequency conflicts, and limited space layout. By using various interference analysis methods such as computational electromagnetics and far-field analysis technology, it can provide basic support for adjusting the time, space, and frequency layout of equipment in the test range. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, this invention provides a simulation analysis method for electromagnetic interference in a comprehensive electronic test field based on the UE4 engine. Addressing issues such as high test frequency, severe frequency conflicts, and limited spatial layout within the test field, this invention employs various interference analysis techniques, including computational electromagnetics and far-field analysis. It optimizes and adjusts the spatial, temporal, and frequency parameters of equipment within the test field through corresponding algorithms, and performs corresponding evaluations and demonstrations, thus completing the simulation analysis of optimized design and resource scheduling for a large-scale comprehensive electronic test field. Simultaneously, this invention uses UE4 to perform 3D modeling of the environment and equipment within the test field, solving the problem of visualizing the interactions between equipment in the electronic test field.

[0005] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A comprehensive electronic test field electromagnetic interference simulation and analysis method based on the UE4 engine includes the following steps:

[0007] Step 1: Establish a model of the device under test based on the actual production environment, and design the transmitter model and receiver model through the UE4 platform;

[0008] Step 2: Based on the model of the device under test, establish a three-dimensional geographic environment model based on the UE4 platform;

[0009] Step 3: Divide the near and far fields of the wireless communication environment and electromagnetic radiation area in the three-dimensional geographic environment model, construct the electromagnetic signal propagation mechanism, determine the environmental change parameters, and establish an electromagnetic transmission loss model.

[0010] Step 4: Analyze the electromagnetic interference principle of the electromagnetic transmission loss model;

[0011] Step 5: Perform near-field and far-field analysis on the model of the device under test. If it is near-field, use the finite-difference time-domain method for near-field interference analysis; if it is far-field, use geometric diffraction theory, uniform diffraction theory, and ray tracing method for far-field interference analysis.

[0012] Furthermore, in step 1, the transmitter model and receiver model are designed, including: establishing the transmitter fundamental signal model, the transmitter harmonic signal model, and the transmitter non-harmonic signal model; establishing the receiver sensitivity model, the receiver intermodulation signal model, and the receiver scrambled signal model; and setting the response parameters of different models.

[0013] Furthermore, in step 2, a three-dimensional geographic environment model based on the UE4 platform is established, including: establishing the terrain environment of hillsides and plains, establishing physical entities of trees and grass, designing weather change rules for sunny days, rainy days, and cloudy days, and setting day-night cycle and time acceleration functions.

[0018] When the distance d between the transmitter and receiver is greater than R, the electromagnetic radiation region is classified as the far field. At this time, the interference propagation path is analyzed and the interference power is calculated based on the free space path loss model. When the distance d is less than R, the electromagnetic radiation region is classified as the near field. At this time, the finite-difference time-domain method is used to discretize the electric and magnetic field regions in a grid and calculate the electromagnetic field value of the receiver.

[0019] Further, step 4 specifically involves: referring to the electromagnetic interference source and the sensitive device as the transmitter and receiver, respectively; referring to the magnitude of the interference power coupled from the interference source to the sensitive device as the interference quantity; determining whether a potential electromagnetic interference environment exists in the system by comparing the effective interference power of the transmitter acting on the receiver and the receiver's sensitivity threshold; describing the degree of interference received by the receiver using interference margin, which is calculated using the following formula:

[0020] IM(f E ,t)=P E -S(f E )

[0021] In the formula, IM(f E ,t) represents the receiver's interference margin, in dB; P E S(f) represents the effective interference power coupled from the transmitter to the receiver antenna port, expressed in dBm. E The value is the receiver's sensitivity, expressed in dBm.

[0023] Furthermore, step 5 specifically includes:

[0024] The calculation covers the near and far field ranges of the computing device. If the interference is near field, the electric and magnetic fields are discretized into a grid using the finite-difference time-domain method. Computational boundaries and parameters are set, electromagnetic field coefficients are calculated, and the electromagnetic field value is calculated using the central difference discretization equation. Absorption boundary conditions are applied, and the process is iterated until the final electromagnetic field value is output. The finite-difference time-domain method includes a set of time-domain advancement formulas, which are obtained by performing a difference discretization operation on the differential form of Maxwell's equations.

[0073] Example 2

[0074] A comprehensive electronic test field electromagnetic interference simulation and analysis method based on the UE4 engine, from Figure 1 As can be seen, this method first analyzes the attributes of radio wave frequency bands, wavelengths, and propagation modes in the test environment based on the static environmental model. It analyzes possible propagation paths based on terrain factors and determines the propagation model in conjunction with the communication environment. For the specific experimental type and spatial state of the equipment under test within the test area, factors such as fundamental interference, harmonic interference, intermodulation interference, and spurious signal interference are considered. Then, combining the static environmental model of the actual production environment and the model of the equipment under test, electromagnetic interference principle analysis is performed. Appropriate interference analysis methods are selected based on the near and far field ranges of the equipment under test. Next, electromagnetic interference calculation analysis is conducted, calculating the path loss of interfering equipment, analyzing interference types based on environmental and equipment parameters, and calculating possible interference modes such as direct, reflected, diffracted, and transmitted interference. Finally, interference margin is calculated based on the sensitivity of the equipment under test, and interference types are analyzed, providing a basic support for frequency management optimization and adjustment, which is consistent with the goal of this method.

[0075] The first step is to delineate the electromagnetic radiation zone.

[0076] Generally, the electromagnetic radiation field of an electromagnetic radiation source can be divided into the far field and the near field.

[0078] Where R represents the boundary between the near and far fields.

[0079] The second step is to calculate the interference propagation path loss.

[0080] Based on the spatial locations of the device under test and the interfering device, the Euclidean distance between them is first calculated to determine whether the electromagnetic interference is far-field or near-field. Next, the interference propagation mode is analyzed to determine if direct, reflected, diffracted, or transmitted interference paths exist, and path loss is calculated based on these paths. If a reflection or diffracted path exists, the reflection coefficient and diffraction coefficient need to be calculated. The path loss model uses the Okumura-Hata model, specifically:

[0081] PL = 69.5 + 29.16log(f) E -13.8logH b -a(H m)+[44.9-6.5logH b logd-K

[0082] Where PL is the path loss, and H is the path loss. b For the effective height of the transmitter, a(H) m H is the receiving antenna height correction factor. m K represents the height of the receiving antenna and K is the city correction factor.

[0083] The third step is to calculate the interference power.

[0134] Step 4: Calculate the interference margin

[0135] By comparing the effective interference power exerted by the transmitter on the receiver with the receiver's sensitivity threshold, it is determined whether a potential electromagnetic interference environment exists in the system. The degree of interference received by the receiver is described by the interference margin (IM), which is calculated as follows:

[0136] IM(f E ,t)=P E -S(f E )
