[0080] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for measuring the electrical properties of an antenna cover, comprising: establishing a antenna cover system based on an antenna turntable with three axes of freedom, and using the system to perform angle compensation on a preset turntable angle, processing the initial near-field information value under the action of the compensated far-field spatial angle and a preset radiation characteristic compensation model to obtain a final electrical performance measurement result. Since the antenna turntable with three axes of freedom is lighter and easier to install than a rotary clamping device with six axes of freedom, the problem of long design and processing cycle and high use cost in the existing antenna cover electrical performance testing method is avoided. Secondly, since the method of the present invention is based on the existing three-axis freedom antenna turntable and performs design compensation processing according to actual scene errors, the accuracy of the antenna cover electrical performance test is improved.

[0081] In order to verify the effectiveness of the method of the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention also conducted a simulation experiment. As follows:

[0082] 1. Test and simulation experimental conditions:

[0083] The test experimental platform used in this embodiment is: microwave darkroom MVGAMS, 15GHz slot array antenna TF-PA-01, and antenna cover system fixed clamping.

[0084] The platform for the simulation experiment is: Intel i5 8500k CPU, main frequency is 3.0GHz, memory is 16GB.

[0085] The software platform for the simulation experiment is: Windows 10 operating system and Matlab 2020b.

[0086] The test and simulation experiments in this embodiment use a slot array antenna and radome with a working center frequency of 15 GHz. The external radome of the antenna adopts a single-layer dielectric structure. The antenna aperture is 240 mm and the diameter of the radome is 440 mm. The dielectric constant and loss tangent of the radome are 2.81 and 0.023 respectively, and the thickness of the radome is 6.9 mm.

[0087] 2. Test and simulation content and results analysis:

[0088] The method of the present invention and the prior art are used to analyze the electrical performance of the antenna after adding the radome, and the far-field directional diagram and electrical performance index of the antenna after adding the radome are obtained.

[0089] The prior art refers to the Finite Difference Time Domain Method in Computer Simulation Technology Studio Suite (CST Studio Suite), referred to as the FDTD calculation method.

[0090] Combine the following Figure 2 The effects of the present invention are further described.

[0091] Figure 2 The comparison results of normalized power patterns obtained by different methods are shown in Figure 1. Specifically, the results of the existing method (FDTD), the method of the present invention, and the simulation experiment (ideal result) are compared. Figure 2 It is obtained by uniformly selecting 751 sampling points within the preset turntable angle range of [-15°, 15°], testing and calculating the far-field power of the antenna at each sampling point after adding the radome, and normalizing the far-field power to its maximum value. The horizontal axis represents the observation angle of the far-field direction of the antenna, in degrees, and the vertical axis represents the normalized power pattern, in dB. Figure 2 It can be seen that the method of the present invention can correct and compensate for the distortion results of the existing testing technology, and the improved results are basically consistent with the simulation experimental results under ideal conditions, proving that when the rotation center of the antenna cover and the three-axis freedom antenna does not coincide and the darkroom space is small, the method of the present invention shows good consistency with the ideal error-free result, that is, the estimation result is relatively accurate.

[0092] In order to further prove the effect of the simulation experiment of the present invention, the calculation results of the present invention and the prior art are evaluated respectively by using the changes of three electrical performance indicators corresponding to the three methods (gain change, left side lobe level, right side lobe level).

[0093] according to Figure 2 The results of the changes in electrical performance indicators under the three methods of the prior art (radome error test), the method of the present invention and the ideal simulation experiment are obtained, and all the calculation results are plotted into Table 1:

[0094] Table 1. Electrical performance analysis table

[0095]

[0096] From Table 1, it can be seen that compared with the existing simulation technology, the gain error of the antenna cover obtained by the method of the present invention is 0.37dB, the error of the left side lobe level is 0.29dB, and the error of the right side lobe level is 0.28dB, indicating that the error of estimating the electrical performance by the method of the present invention is small, proving the effectiveness of the method of the present invention.
