Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metamaterial absorbing structures, and in particular to a multilayer absorbing structure design method based on an equivalent circuit and genetic optimization algorithm (EC-GA). Background Art

[0002] Broadband absorbing structures have broad application prospects in the field of radar stealth because of their ability to dissipate electromagnetic wave energy in a wide frequency range. However, in actual design, the influence of absorption characteristics often involves many factors, which makes the design and optimization of broadband absorbing structures very complicated. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a simple and efficient optimization algorithm to assist the design of broadband absorbing structures.

[0003] In the design of broadband absorbing structures, the most commonly used method is to stack or regularly arrange lossy surfaces based on impedance films or lumped resistance elements in multiple layers. Impedance films have been widely used in the design of broadband absorbing structures because they have good ohmic loss characteristics and can be printed into a variety of shapes to meet different electromagnetic requirements. Traditional absorbing structure design schemes rely on the experience of technicians and usually take a lot of time to adjust various physical parameters. Especially in the field of ultra-wideband absorbing, as the absorbing frequency range is widened, the number of layers of the absorbing structure will increase, and the parameters that need to be designed will also increase, which undoubtedly increases the complexity of the technicians' work. With the development of artificial intelligence technology, a variety of optimization algorithms have been widely used in optimal solution problems. Among them, genetic algorithms can efficiently and stably handle multi-parameter optimization problems by imitating the process of species evolution. However, in order to apply genetic algorithms in the design process of absorbing structures, it is necessary to establish a complete absorbing theoretical calculation system, which requires the establishment of a closed relationship between the lumped parameters of the equivalent circuit and the structural geometric parameters.

[0004] Previous studies have shown that the lumped resistance value is related to the surface impedance and area of ​​the impedance film, and the inductance and capacitance values ​​are related to the geometry and size of the impedance film and the effective dielectric constant of the surrounding medium. The dielectric environment that affects the effective dielectric constant mainly includes the type, quantity, thickness and dielectric constant of the surrounding medium. However, many studies have ignored the influence of the surrounding dielectric environment on the effective dielectric constant, resulting in a large deviation between the theoretical calculation results and the simulation results. Summary of the invention
