Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electromagnetic waves, and in particular to a far-field prediction method based on neural network near-field phase reconstruction. Background Art
[0002] Near-field to far-field conversion is an important part of antenna testing. Its core is to reconstruct the far-field information of the antenna under test (AUT) through near-field measurement data. As electronic systems become larger and more complex, the full-wave method can no longer meet the needs of electromagnetic compatibility modeling due to the huge consumption of computing resources. In the past few decades, the theory of constructing equivalent radiation sources has developed rapidly. Among them, the equivalent dipole theory is widely used in the construction of equivalent sources. Generally, the establishment of an equivalent source requires both the amplitude and phase information of the near field. However, in actual testing, it is difficult or even impossible to accurately obtain the phase information of the near field. On this basis, near-field phase recovery and the method of reconstructing the equivalent source based on the phase-free near field are proposed. There are mainly two ideas: one is to perform redundant measurements, such as measuring the field amplitude information of multiple near-field scanning surfaces; the other is to use optimization algorithms to minimize errors by iterating equivalent dipoles or near-field phases. However, both methods face their own shortcomings. Redundant measurements require more hardware resources and are difficult to ensure under specific measurement conditions; optimization algorithms have high requirements on computer computing power and are difficult to ensure timeliness. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a far-field prediction method based on neural network near-field phase reconstruction, which adopts a neural network to perform near-field phase recovery, then constructs an equivalent dipole source, and finally realizes the far-field prediction of the antenna to be tested, with high accuracy and timeliness.
[0004] The object of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a far field prediction method based on neural network near field phase reconstruction, comprising the following steps:

[0051] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following.
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, a far-field prediction method based on neural network near-field phase reconstruction includes the following steps:
[0053] S1. Perform near-field simulation on the antenna to be tested, obtain near-field amplitude and phase data of the antenna to be tested, and construct a data set, dividing the data set into a training set and a verification set;
[0054] The AUT uses a conical horn antenna, and FEKO is used to simulate its near field. The geometric dimensions of the conical horn antenna are frequency-dependent, and the aperture radius is 1.2λ. By sampling equidistantly from 1.5 to 2.4 GHz, a total of 800 antenna samples were simulated to obtain the amplitude and phase data of its near field. The near-field sampling surface is a sphere with a radius of 0.6 m, and 20×20 sampling points are set equidistantly between 1 to 179° and 0 to 342°, that is, m=400. The near-field amplitude of the horn antenna in the data set includes |E r |,|E θ |, Three components, phase data φ includes φ r ,φ θ , Three servings.
[0055] The specific steps are as follows:
[0056] In CADFEKO, find the conical horn antenna in the components library, set the operating frequency to 1.5 GHz, and get the model of the conical horn antenna.
[0057] Set the near-field sampling surface with a radius of 0.6 m and a number of 20 × 20, with θ between 1 and 179° and The values are equally spaced between 0 and 342°;
[0058] In order to construct a data set that meets the required frequency band, it is necessary to scan the operating frequency of the horn antenna. The scanning range is 1.5 to 2.4 GHz, and the sampling method is equidistant sampling. In the parameter sweep: create models of the software interface, select the scanning parameter as the operating frequency of the conical horn antenna. Before calculating the near field of the antenna, FEKO will first establish CAD models of 800 horn antennas at different frequencies. During the scanning process, each time the frequency is stepped, the CAD model of the antenna will automatically change accordingly, and then the near field simulation of these 800 antenna samples will be completed in turn. After the near field simulation calculation is completed, the near field amplitude of each horn antenna |E r |,|E θ |, and the near-field phase φ r ,φ θ , It will be saved in the folder where the CAD model is stored, with the file suffix of .out file. The near-field amplitude and phase data of 400 sampling points are extracted from the .out file in the file directory through Python script to complete the construction of the data set. Because the near-field amplitude and phase both contain three components, the structure of the final data set is characterized by the near-field amplitude of the horn antenna, with a dimension of (800,400×3), and the label is the near-field phase, with a dimension of (800,400×3). The 800 samples are then divided into training set and validation set in a ratio of 8:2.
[0059] S2. Construct a neural network for predicting the near-field phase based on the near-field amplitude, train the neural network through the training set, fit the relationship between the near-field amplitude and the near-field phase, verify the trained neural network using the verification set, and obtain the trained neural network after the verification passes;
[0060] Neural Networks is a computational model inspired by the biological nervous system. It processes complex nonlinear relationships by simulating the connections and signal transmission of brain neurons and has been widely used in various fields.
[0061] (1) Structure of Neural Network
[0062] Neural networks usually consist of multiple layers, each containing several neurons (nodes). These layers can be divided into three categories.
[0063] ① Input layer: receives raw data input, each neuron represents an input feature;
[0064] ②Hidden layer: located between the input layer and the output layer, responsible for extracting and converting features. Complex neural networks usually contain multiple hidden layers;
[0065] ③Output layer: Generates the final output result, each neuron corresponds to an output category or value.
[0066] Each neuron is connected to other neurons through weights and biases, and the signal is processed by an activation function. The activation function is generally nonlinear to fit the nonlinear relationship between input and output.
[0067] (2) Working Principle of Neural Network
[0068] The working principle of neural network can be divided into the following steps:
[0069] Forward Propagation: The input data passes through each layer of the network, and is passed layer by layer and weighted and biased, and finally generates the result in the output layer.
[0070] Loss Calculation: By comparing the predicted results with the actual labels, the value of the loss function is calculated to measure the prediction error of the network.
[0071] Backpropagation: According to the gradient of the loss function, adjust the weights and biases of the network to minimize the loss function. This process uses the Gradient Descent or its variant optimization algorithm.
[0072] Iterative Training: Repeat the process of forward propagation and back propagation until the network converges or reaches the preset training rounds.
[0073] For the dataset generated by simulation, this paper uses a neural network to fit the relationship between the near-field amplitude and phase of the AUT. The near-field amplitude of the input feature 400×3 can be regarded as a three-channel image with 20×20 pixels, so this paper intends to use a mature convolutional neural network (CNN) for training and fitting.
[0074] The CNN model used in this article is the MobileNetV2 neural network model, such as Figure 2 The model shown has been successfully applied to near-field plane measurement. The MobileNetV2 neural network model uses the depthwise separable convolution in MobileNetV1, but unlike the latter which uses 1×1 convolution blocks for dimensionality reduction, the former uses 1×1 convolution blocks for dimensionality increase. The MobileNetV2 neural network model introduces linear bottleneck and inverted residuals. Linear bottleneck replaces low-dimensional nonlinear activation transformations with linear transformations to avoid losing too much useful information. Inverted residuals refers to the residual block of the ResNet network. The residual block is a funnel-shaped structure, while inverted residuals is a process of first increasing the dimension and then reducing the dimension. It is a spindle-shaped structure.
[0075] The MobileNetV2 structure used in the present invention is shown in Table 1, and the network is established using Pytorch. The network input is the amplitude data of the near-field simulation of 20×20×3 |E r |,|E θ |, The network output is the predicted three-component near-field phase information of 400 sampling points in the near field. Recorded as There are 1200 values in total. The phase recovery principle diagram is as follows Figure 3 The network is trained using an adaptive momentum optimizer (Adam), with a batch size of 160 and a learning rate of 0.003, and 100 rounds of training using an NVIDIA RTX A5000 GPU. The loss function used is the mean square error (MSE) between the neural network predicted phase and the simulated phase φ.

[0077]
[0078] S3. For the antenna to be tested that is not in the data set, only the near-field amplitude information is obtained through simulation, and the predicted near-field phase is obtained by inputting it into the trained neural network, thereby obtaining the complete near-field amplitude and phase information, and the equivalent dipole source of the antenna to be tested is calculated using the least squares method;
[0079] The equivalent dipole theory uses a weighted dipole array instead of the AUT to characterize its radiation characteristics, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the sphere with a larger radius represents the sphere of near-field simulation or measurement, E r ,E θ , represents the three components of the near-field electric field. The sphere with a smaller radius represents the sphere where the dipole is placed. θ , Represents the two components of the dipole. Here we use the electric dipole model. To reduce the computational complexity, the dipole is placed tangentially along the sphere. The electric field of the spherical dipole array and the near-field sphere can be expressed as follows.
[0080] T 3m×2n P 2n×1 =E 3m×1
[0081] Where m is the number of near-field sampling points and n is the number of dipoles. 2n×1 is a dipole array consisting of θ and The column vector of components, E 3m×1 is a near-field electric field consisting of r, θ and A column vector consisting of components, T 3m×2n is the relationship matrix between them, where The six block matrices are only related to the positions of sampling points and dipoles.
[0082]
[0083] For the AUT that is not in the data set, only the near-field amplitude information is obtained through simulation (to address the problem that the near-field phase is difficult to measure accurately in actual testing). According to the trained neural network obtained in the previous step, the near-field amplitude of the AUT |E 3m×1 | Input the neural network to get the predicted near-field phase φ 3m×1 , and thus obtain a complete near-field Calculation of equivalent dipole sources using near-field information It is an electromagnetic inverse problem. The commonly used method is the least squares method, and its objective function is:
[0084] minF(P 2n×1 )=‖E 3m×1 -T 3m×2n P 2n×1 ‖ 2
[0085] The least squares solution of the dipole vector can be obtained by matrix singular value decomposition. In Python, the numpy library can be called to complete the solution.
[0086] The dipole is placed on a spherical surface with a radius of 0.1 m, at 10° to 170° of θ. 18×18 sampling points are set equidistantly between 0 and 340°, that is, n=324. According to the simulated near-field amplitude and the near-field phase predicted by the neural network, the equivalent dipole source of the AUT can be easily calculated by the least squares method.
[0087] S4. Calculate the far field of the antenna under test based on the equivalent dipole theory.
[0088] According to the equivalent dipole theory, to calculate the far field of the AUT, we only need to calculate the relationship matrix between the dipole array and the far field sampling points, which can be expressed as Its form is the same as the relationship matrix T between the dipole array and the near field mentioned above. 3m×2n resemblance. The calculation method is similar to T 3m×2n The sampling point is similar to the previous one, except that the sampling point is set farther away to meet the far field condition, from near field to far field. The far field distance is set to 100m (this distance meets the far field condition), and the sampling points are set to 37×73, that is, at 0~180° and The equivalent dipole source obtained in the previous step is sampled every 5° from 0 to 360°. Using the matrix equation The far field calculation can be completed to predict the far field of the AUT.
[0089] In the embodiment of the present application, the training loss curve of the neural network is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the dark curve represents the error on the training set, and the light curve represents the error on the validation set. It can be seen that the neural network fitting effect is good, the MSE of the training set and the validation set is below 1000, and there is no serious overfitting phenomenon.
[0090] In order to compare the existing global optimization algorithm with the proposed method, another 100 horn antenna samples that are not in the training set and validation set are selected as the test set. The covariance adaptive evolution strategy (CMA-ES) and the trained neural network are used to construct the equivalent dipole source. Figure 6 The effect of reconstructing the near field of a random horn antenna sample in the test set is shown, where E_real represents the simulated real near field, E_cma represents the near field reconstructed by the CMA-ES optimization algorithm, and E_cnn represents the near field reconstructed by the method proposed in this paper. On two perpendicular near-field sections, the near-field reconstruction effects of the two methods are close and both perform well.
[0091] In order to compare the difference between the two methods in predicting the far field of the AUT, the error is defined as follows.
[0092]
[0093] Where E k represents the electric field component, M s Represents the actual near-field amplitude data of the AUT, M e represents the near-field amplitude data obtained based on the equivalent dipole source. m is the total number of near-field sampling points, i = 1, 2…m and
[0094] Table 2 Results comparison
[0095]
[0096] As can be seen from Table 2, using a neural network to perform phase recovery and construct an equivalent dipole is significantly better than the CMA-ES algorithm, and has great advantages in both timeliness and accuracy. Figure 7 The far-field radiation pattern of the horn antenna predicted by the neural network method is shown, where real represents the actual simulated far field and cnn represents the far field predicted by the neural network. It can be seen that it is highly consistent with the simulation.
