Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of multi-band compatible stealth technology, and in particular to a multi-spectral stealth skin and an adaptive camouflage system thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the advancement of science and technology and the rapid development of strategic weapons, precision strikes based on multi-band combination and multi-gradient depth detection technology have become the mainstream of modern battlefields. Among them, the multi-gradient detection system composed of long-range radar detection, medium-range infrared detection and close-range visible light remote sensing has been widely used. Therefore, for various strategic equipment that need to be protected, having radar stealth, infrared stealth and visible light stealth at the same time can greatly improve the survival rate on the battlefield. For mobile military equipment such as tanks and chariots, visible light stealth needs to be adaptive to the surrounding environment. In summary, it is very important to develop a system with radar-infrared stealth and environmentally adaptive visible light stealth.
[0003] The existing compatible stealth skin is mainly radar-infrared compatible stealth, which is realized by artificially controlling electromagnetic parameters to achieve metamaterials with extraordinary physical properties such as negative refraction and perfect lenses. From a functional point of view, it is mainly divided into two types: 1. Achieving higher visible light transmittance with the thinnest possible thickness, mainly used in windows of aircraft, tanks and other equipment; 2. Sacrificing thickness and light transmittance to achieve lower infrared emissivity and wider microwave absorption. The former can be further compatible with visible light stealth due to its excellent light transmittance, but the radar-infrared stealth performance is poor, and the latter is difficult to be compatible with visible light stealth due to its opacity, but has excellent radar-infrared stealth performance. How to be compatible with visible light stealth and maintain excellent infrared-radar stealth performance has become the key point in the development of stealth technology.
[0004] Chinese patent CN117471404A discloses an adaptive camouflage skin electronic and adaptive stealth system, which adopts a vertical stacking structure of an infrared low-emission layer, a radar absorption layer and an adaptive color-changing layer from the outside to the inside, realizing a multifunctional integrated design of infrared stealth, visual stealth and radar stealth, and finally achieving a multi-band intelligent adaptive stealth effect that takes into account low radiation in the mid-to-far infrared band of 3 to 15um, effective radar absorption in a wide frequency band of 10-37.5Ghz and adaptive color change of 0.38 to 0.78um. The design idea of the invention is to place the adaptive color-changing layer at the bottom, which limits the infrared-radar stealth performance to a certain extent. Although its red emissivity is relatively high and the absorption effect is not strong in the low frequency band of 2-10GHz, in terms of the construction of the adaptive system, the ambient light sensor used for background recognition can only transmit back single color data, which is powerless in the face of a complex color environment and has poor adaptability. Summary of the invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a multi-spectral stealth skin to solve the problem that conventional stealth skins in the prior art cannot achieve simultaneous stealth of radar, infrared light, and visible light and have poor adaptability to color.

[0014] In a possible implementation, the infrared wave intercepting layer is fixed on the first substrate layer by photolithography and dry etching; the first microwave loss layer, the second microwave loss layer and the third microwave loss layer are respectively fixed on the second substrate layer, the third substrate layer and the fourth substrate layer by laser etching.
[0015] By fixing the infrared wave intercepting layer and the microwave loss layer, the absorption and suppression effects of the multi-spectral stealth skin of the present invention are further improved.

[0017] By selecting the above-mentioned heating plate, it is possible to heat the environmental mimicry film, thereby changing its color and achieving invisibility.
[0018] In a possible implementation, the thermochromic capsule includes a composite material formed by combining one or more materials of two-stage color-changing, multi-stage color-changing, colorless-to-colored or colored-to-colorless temperature-changing capsules at different temperatures.

[0074] The thickness of the air medium layer 303 is 1.25 mm; the thickness of the foam medium layer 307, the foam medium layer 310, and the foam medium layer 313 is 2.5 mm;
[0075] The indium tin oxide film is deposited on a substrate with a thickness of 0.125 mm by magnetron sputtering. The substrate material is selected to include a first substrate layer 302 , a second substrate layer 305 , a third substrate layer 309 , and a fourth substrate layer 312 .
[0076] In the above-mentioned multi-spectral stealth skin 3, the preparation process of the environmental mimicry film 306 includes:
[0077] S1. The polydimethylsiloxane polydimethylsiloxane and SE1700 curing agent were stirred in a mass ratio of 10:1 to form a glue, and then the glue and the thermochromic capsule were mixed in a mass ratio of 10:1;

The environmental mimicry film 306 prepared by the injection molding process of methylsiloxane is used as the visible light stealth layer; a ceramic heating plate is selected as the heating layer 314, and the infrared wave interception layer 301 is prepared on the first substrate layer 302 by photolithography and dry etching processes; the first microwave loss layer 304, the second microwave loss layer 308 and the third microwave loss layer 311 are respectively fixed on the second substrate layer 305, the third substrate layer 309 and the fourth substrate layer 312 by laser etching process; the multi-spectral stealth skin in the present invention is prepared by preparing each layer structure separately, and then bonding each prepared film layer to the adjacent functional layer by a high-transmittance adhesive to complete the assembly of the skin.
[0103] The thickness of the air medium layer 303 is 2 mm; the thickness of the foam medium layer 307, the foam medium layer 310, and the foam medium layer 313 is 4 mm;
[0104] The aluminum-doped zinc oxide film is deposited on a substrate with a thickness of 0.125 mm by magnetron sputtering. The substrate material is selected to include a first substrate layer 302 , a second substrate layer 305 , a third substrate layer 309 , and a fourth substrate layer 312 .
[0105] In the above-mentioned multi-spectral stealth skin 3, the preparation process of the environmental mimicry film 306 includes:
[0106] S1. The polydimethylsiloxane polydimethylsiloxane and SE1700 curing agent were stirred in a mass ratio of 10:1 to form a glue, and then the glue and the thermochromic capsule were mixed in a mass ratio of 10:1;
[0107] S2. Place the mixture in S1 in an internal vacuum machine, and then evacuate the vacuum degree of the vacuum chamber to <3.0×10-3Pa, and let it stand for 30 minutes;
[0108] S3. The vacuum chamber is restored to normal pressure and the mixture is taken out, and then the mixture is poured into the coaxial method mold and the simulated film mold, respectively, and then the mold is placed in an oven at 80°C for 2h;
[0109] S4. Take out the mold and demould it.
[0110] The multi-spectral stealth skin 3 prepared in the above-mentioned embodiment 1 of the present invention is subjected to performance testing, specifically including:
[0111] Infrared stealth performance test (infrared emissivity):
[0112] Kirchhoff's law shows that under equilibrium conditions, the emissivity is equal to the absorptivity. Therefore, the infrared emissivity is calculated by measuring the transmission and reflection spectra of the skin using a Fourier infrared spectrometer (Bruker INVENIO-S). The experimental test results are shown in the attached Figure 7 As shown, in the infrared band of 3-14μm, the average emissivity is 0.227.
[0113] Radar stealth performance test (reflection coefficient, angle stability):
[0114] The microwave absorption characteristics of the sample were measured in a microwave anechoic chamber using an AV3655 stealth target radar cross section tester, and two pairs of broadband horn antennas with operating frequencies of 2-18 GHz and 18-40 GHz were used for measurement. Figure 8 As shown in the figure, in the radar band of 2.53-34.56GHz, the reflection coefficient is less than -10dB, which means that the microwave absorption rate exceeds 90%. The angle stability is measured using the arch method, and the angle stability of ±45° and ±60° can be maintained under TE and TM polarization respectively. The results are shown in the attached figure. Fig. 9 , Fig.10 shown.
[0115] Visible light stealth performance test (environmental mimicry performance):
[0116] The multi-spectral compatible stealth skin system was placed in grassland and desert environments for environmental mimicry performance testing. After the color change stabilized, the mimicry conditions in the two environments were as shown in the attached figure. Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, it can be observed that the system has a good mimicry effect.
[0117] Through the above embodiments, it is further proved that the present invention provides a multi-spectral stealth skin 3 and an environment-adaptive multi-spectral compatible stealth skin system, which can achieve a low infrared emissivity of 0.227, broadband microwave absorption (>90%) in the range of 2.53-34.56GHz and adaptive visible light stealth in grassland, desert and other environments, and has multi-spectral adaptive stealth capability. Compared with the Chinese patent CN117471404A in the background technology, it discloses an adaptive camouflage skin electronic and adaptive stealth system, but the design idea of the invention is to place the adaptive color-changing layer at the bottom, which limits the infrared-radar stealth performance to a certain extent, and its infrared emissivity is higher than 0.227 of the present invention, and the absorption effect is not strong at the low frequency band of 2-10GHz. In terms of the construction of the adaptive system, the ambient light sensor used for background recognition can only transmit back single color data, and is powerless in the face of complex color environments, while the CMOS camera used in the present invention can directly transmit back the complete color information of the background image, so it has the potential for pixel-level visible light stealth and has strong adaptability.
