Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electromagnetic wave analysis, and in particular to an experimental device and method for analyzing the influence of charged particles in a Martian environment on electromagnetic waves. Background Art
[0002] Against the backdrop of the growing development of modern science and technology, electromagnetic waves, as an important carrier of information transmission and energy exchange, are widely used in various fields such as communications, radar, satellite navigation, aerospace, medical diagnosis and daily life. However, with the increasing complexity of the natural environment and human activities, electromagnetic waves are increasingly encountering more and more interference factors during their propagation. Among them, the impact of charged sand particles and their discharge on the propagation of electromagnetic waves is particularly significant, becoming a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.
[0003] The impact of the Martian electric field on measuring instruments is multifaceted and cannot be ignored. The electric field environment of Mars is complex and changeable, including multiple components such as electrostatic fields and induction electric fields. These electric fields will interact with the electronic components and sensors inside the measuring instruments. First, the Martian electric field may cause static electricity accumulation inside the measuring instrument, which in turn affects the accuracy and stability of the instrument. Static electricity accumulation may cause charge leakage or discharge, causing interference to the instrument's circuit, resulting in deviations in the measurement results or increased noise. Secondly, the Martian electric field may also affect the sensors of the measuring instruments. The sensitivity and working principle of the sensors often depend on changes in the electric or magnetic fields, and the Martian electric field environment will change the distribution of these physical fields, thereby affecting the output signals of the sensors. This influence may cause distortion or increase uncertainty in the measurement results. In addition, the Martian electric field may also generate additional electromagnetic interference inside the measuring instrument through the induction effect. These interference signals may mask or distort the measured signals, reducing the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results. In order to reduce this influence, the measuring instrument needs to have good electromagnetic shielding and filtering capabilities to isolate the interference of external electric fields.
[0004] Traditional electromagnetic wave propagation models are mostly based on idealized assumptions, such as uniform media and no interference sources. However, these assumptions are often difficult to hold true in actual environments. For non-uniform and dynamically changing interference sources such as charged sand particles and their discharge phenomena in the Martian environment, traditional models often cannot accurately describe their impact on electromagnetic wave propagation. In addition, when studying the impact of charged sand particles and their discharge on electromagnetic waves, traditional experimental methods are difficult to accurately control the concentration of sand and dust, resulting in limited stability and repeatability of experimental results, which limits the progress in in-depth understanding of the electromagnetic wave attenuation mechanism. Therefore, the present invention aims to propose an experimental device for the impact of charged particles in the Martian environment on electromagnetic waves, and to explore the impact of charged sand particles and their discharge phenomena in the Martian environment on electromagnetic wave propagation.

The transmitter uses a function generator to generate a sine wave and converts the electrical signal into an electromagnetic wave through an antenna. The receiver is located on the other side and is used to receive the electromagnetic wave passing through the sand area and record the signal strength.

[0016] Under the action of the electric field, the sand particles acquire electric charge from the electric field. The charged state and jumping height of the sand particles can be controlled by adjusting the voltage.

[0019] The receiver is arranged opposite to the electromagnetic wave transmitter, and is used to receive the electromagnetic wave signal passing through the sand area and record its signal strength for subsequent data processing and analysis;
[0020] Based on the change of signal intensity, the signal intensity attenuation is quantitatively measured, and the influence of charged sand and its discharge on electromagnetic waves is analyzed by comparing the values of signal intensity attenuation under different conditions. The influencing factors of electromagnetic wave attenuation are the influence of charged sand and the influence of discharge phenomenon. Among them, the charged sand affects the propagation speed and phase of electromagnetic waves by changing the local dielectric constant. Among the influence of discharge phenomenon, the transient electromagnetic field generated by discharge interferes with electromagnetic waves. Among the influence of plate processing methods on attenuation, charged sand discharges under non-insulated plate mode, and electromagnetic wave attenuation includes discharge effect.

Acrylic spiral rods and wooden boards are selected, and four acrylic spiral rods are vertically connected to the wooden board to form a bracket to fix the upper and lower plates. The electromagnetic wave transmitter is fixed on the inner wall of the vacuum box, and its signal transmitting probe is at the same horizontal height as the central axis of the upper and lower plates. The signal receiving probe of the receiver is fixed on the same horizontal line as the signal transmitting probe of the electromagnetic wave transmitter.

The size of the acrylic box is 150×150×150mm, ensuring good sealing. It is used to place sand and simulate the sand cloud environment. A high-power fan is installed inside the acrylic box to mix the sand evenly in the box to form a stable sand cloud. The electronic scale is used to accurately weigh the mass of the sand to ensure the accuracy of the sand mass in each experiment. The laser measurement system passes the laser beam through the sand area and uses the attenuation of the laser to calibrate the sand mass concentration. When the laser beam passes through the sand Cloud, part of the laser energy is absorbed, scattered or reflected by the sand, resulting in the attenuation of the laser power. By measuring the power change of the laser beam before and after passing through the sand, the attenuation of the laser is calculated, and then the mass concentration of the sand is inferred based on the established relationship between the laser attenuation and the mass concentration of the sand. Prepare the experiment, use an electronic scale to weigh a predetermined mass of sand (such as 0.3g), ensure that the particle size distribution of the sand is relatively uniform, and evenly spread the sand on the bottom of the acrylic box. Connect the laser and the laser power meter, prepare to measure the laser power, and pass the laser beam through the empty acrylic box without sand. Record the laser power at this time as the reference power. , turn on the high-power fan and adjust the wind speed to fully mix the sand in the acrylic box to form a uniform sand cloud. Wait for 1 minute to ensure that the sand distribution is stable. After the sand is evenly mixed, turn on the laser to pass the laser beam through the sand area. Use the laser to emit the laser beam through the sand area and record the laser power after passing through the sand. , combined with the mass of sand (i.e. the mass of sand placed in the box) and the volume of the acrylic box (150×150×150mm), the mass concentration of sand (the mass of sand per unit volume) was calculated, and the attenuation of the laser was calculated by measuring the power change of the laser beam before and after passing through the sand. ; Repeat the experiment on sand samples with different masses, that is, adjust the mass concentration of sand particles, and record each set of experimental data. Perform regression analysis on the experimental data to obtain multiple sets of laser attenuation data under different sand mass concentrations, and fit the relationship between laser attenuation and sand mass concentration.
