[0093] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0094] The following describes a target cross-polarization scattering center modeling method and device based on full-wave current data in an embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0095] Figure 2 A flow chart of a target cross-polarization scattering center modeling method based on full-wave current data provided in Example 1 of the present application.

[0096] like Figure 2 As shown, the target cross-polarization scattering center modeling method based on full-wave current data includes the following steps:

[0097] Step 201, dividing the geometric model of the target into mesh files;

[0098] In this embodiment, the geometric model of the target is segmented into a mesh file using software.

[0099] Step 202, based on the target grid file, using a full-wave numerical method to calculate the target surface induced current;

[0100] In this embodiment, the target grid file is imported into CAE software FEKO or other full-wave numerical method solvers to calculate the target surface induced current.

[0101] Step 203, performing orthogonal decomposition on the target surface induced current to obtain a current cross-polarization component;

[0102] In this embodiment, the current is orthogonally decomposed into: In this way, the current co-polarization component and the current cross-polarization component are obtained. Among them: p is the polarization mode of the incident wave, which is V or H,

[0103] Step 204, performing regional segmentation on the target grid file, and segmenting the current cross-polarization component based on the regional segmentation result to obtain cross-polarization current partitions;

[0104] In this embodiment, the target grid file is segmented by region, and the current is segmented based on this. According to the triangle grid vertex and index information, the center point coordinates and normal vectors of each grid are solved; traversing each triangle vertex index information, all pairs of adjacent triangles are extracted, and the determination method is that two triangles have two common vertices; solving the included angle between the normal vectors of each pair of adjacent triangles, when the included angle is less than the threshold, it is determined that the pair of triangles are coplanar, and when the included angle is greater than the threshold, it is determined that the common side of the pair of triangles is an edge structure, and all the edge structures of the target are extracted; extracting all the grids in each region based on the edge structure to complete the region segmentation; based on the region segmentation result, the current cross-polarization components of each region are obtained.

[0105] Step 205, adaptively extract the cross-polarization scattering contribution structure according to the sorting result of the current intensity of each region;

[0106] In this embodiment, for a metallic target, the electric field can be expressed by the Stratton-chu integral formula as:

[0107]

[0108] Replacing J p (r ′ ) in the above formula with the current cross-polarization component, the expression form of the cross-polarization scattering electric field can be obtained as follows:

[0109]

[0110] Substituting the current cross-polarization component of the target as a whole or the current cross-polarization component of certain regions into the corresponding cross-polarization scattering electric field expression, the cross-polarization scattering electric field of the target or the cross-polarization scattering electric field of certain regions can be solved and obtained.

[0111] In this embodiment, first, according to the average value of the current cross-polarization components of each region, intensity sorting is performed; regions are extracted one by one from strong to weak, and the cross-polarization scattering electric field of the extracted regions is solved, and after being converted into RCS, a relative error comparison is made with the cross-polarization scattering electric field of the target. The formula is as follows:

[0112]

[0113] Among them, RCS extracted is the RCS of the extracted region, and RCS total is the overall RCS of the target. When the relative error is greater than 1%, continue to extract the next region with stronger intensity, otherwise the extraction ends, and the cross-polarization scattering contribution structure is obtained.

[0114] Step 206: Determine the scattering center distribution mechanism based on the morphology of the cross-polarized component of the regional current, and determine the cross-polarized scattering center distribution by reconstructing the cross-polarized scattering contribution structure.

[0115] In this embodiment, the process of determining the corresponding scattering mechanism includes: determining the scattering center position. For striped currents, it is mainly the secondary scattering caused by the dihedral structure, and the scattering centers are distributed at the vertices of the common edges of the dihedral structure; for point-diffused currents, it is mainly the tertiary scattering caused by the trihedral structure, and the scattering centers are distributed at the common vertices of the trihedral structure; for line currents, it is mainly caused by edge diffraction, and the scattering centers are distributed at the vertices of the edges; for irregularly distributed currents, they are caused by multiple scattering sources, and each scattering source is still one of the above three cases and can be determined separately.

[0116] In this embodiment, the process of structure reconstruction includes: taking the extraction region as the reference, traversing to obtain all adjacent regions of this region, and deleting according to the incident direction and occlusion judgment, reconstructing structures such as dihedral angles and trihedral angles, and accurately positioning the vertices of the common edges of the dihedral structure or the common vertices of the trihedral structure.

[0117] Step 207: Establish a cross-polarized scattering center model of the target based on the cross-polarized scattering center distribution.

[0118] In this embodiment, based on the cross-polarized scattering center position distribution information obtained by extraction, the present invention uses the GTD scattering center model modified based on MBPE to parametrically characterize the cross-polarization, as shown in the following formula

[0119]

[0120] where N is the number of cross-polarized scattering centers, f is the incident frequency, f c is the center frequency, α is the frequency-dependent factor. For plane-plane secondary reflection, α is 1; for single-curved surface-plane secondary reflection and single-curved surface-single-curved surface secondary reflection, α is 0.5, k is the wave number, is the incident wave vector, r ′ is the scattering center position, ξ is the incident angle, which is a function of the pitch angle θ and the azimuth angle A(ξ) is the scattering center amplitude. Since the scattering center amplitude varies with the angle, based on MBPE, the amplitude-dependent function of cross-polarized scattering can be characterized by a fractional rational polynomial, as shown in the following formula:

[0121]

[0122] where P = [P 1 , P 2 ,..., P m and Q = [Q1 , Q 2 ,..., Q n-1 are the unknown parameters of the polynomial respectively, and m = n + 1. Compared with the ordinary polynomial, the above formula is easier to achieve the optimal estimation result with fewer parameters.

[0123] Among them, the parameter estimation method can choose the genetic algorithm (GA), or other parameter estimation methods can also be used. The objective function set during parameter estimation can be the minimum root mean square error of the RCS at multiple angles of the point frequency, or the maximum similarity of the time-frequency image (TFR). The minimum root mean square error is shown as follows

[0124]

[0125] Among them, RCS sc is the RCS obtained by solving the scattering center model, and RCS s is the RCS of the standard data (which can be the result of the full-wave numerical method), and Q is the number of data;

[0126] The maximum TFR similarity is shown as follows

[0127]

[0128] Among them, S s and S c are the time-frequency image data after the time-frequency transformation of the electric field of the scattering center model and the electric field of the standard data respectively. M×N is the dimension of the TFR data matrix, are the average values of the time-frequency image data of the scattering center model and the standard TFR data respectively.

[0129] Step 208: Based on the target grid file, calculate the RCS of the target using the full-wave numerical method, and obtain the cross-polarized scattering electric field of the target based on the cross-polarized scattering center model of the target. Determine whether the error between the RCS of the target and the cross-polarized scattering electric field of the target meets the requirements, and determine the cross-polarized scattering center model of the target.

[0130] In this embodiment, using the established scattering center model, obtain the cross-polarized scattering electric field of the target and verify it with the full-wave data. When the root mean square error of the RCS is less than 4 dB, or the TFR similarity is greater than 85%, the scattering center model is established. When the error does not meet the requirements, return to step six and re-determine the scattering center position and amplitude estimation.

[0131] In this embodiment, combine the above-mentioned cross-polarized electromagnetic scattering echo data of the target to calculate the SAR or ISAR image.

[0132] The target cross-polarization scattering center modeling method based on full-wave current data in the embodiment of the present application is oriented to the demand for fast and accurate calculation of cross-polarization electromagnetic scattering characteristics. The cross-polarization component of the current calculated by the full-wave numerical method is used to adaptively extract the cross-polarization contribution structure according to the sparsely sampled full-wave current, and then the cross-polarization scattering mechanism is analyzed and the position distribution of the scattering center is determined; the MBPE technology is used to estimate the parameters of the scattering center amplitude in the form of a polynomial to determine the scattering center amplitude, and finally the cross-polarization scattering center model of the target is established, which can accurately and quickly generate complex target cross-polarization electromagnetic characteristic data. This embodiment can be applied to the rapid simulation of radar polarization echoes and polarization radar remote sensing technology of complex electrically large-sized targets, thereby expanding the application field of scattering centers and solving the problems of insufficient understanding of the target cross-polarization scattering mechanism and unknown distribution of scattering centers.

[0133] This embodiment establishes a SLICY-like target CAD model such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the total length of the model is 1m. When performing full-wave solution on the target, the target is divided into a grid model with a grid size of 1 / 10 wavelength. At the same time, the grid model is used to perform regional segmentation. The segmentation results are shown in Figure 4 shown.

[0134] The full-wave numerical method is used to calculate the target surface current. The calculation parameters are set as follows: the incident polarization mode is V polarization, the pitch angle θ = 90°, and the target induced current polarization decomposition results for azimuth angles of 0°, 45°, and 90° are as follows: Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the left side is the current co-polarization component, i.e., VV current, and the right side is the current cross-polarization component, i.e., HV current. Then, the current cross-polarization component, i.e., HV current, is specifically studied. The results of adaptively extracting the cross-polarization contribution area based on the full-wave current with azimuth angles of 0°, 45°, and 90° are shown in the figure. Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown; the cross-polarization contribution structure reconstruction results and scattering center position and type annotation diagrams for azimuth angles of 0°, 45° and 90° are shown respectively Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 shown.

[0135] After determining the scattering center position at different angles, this embodiment uses MBPE technology to estimate the scattering center amplitude. In the amplitude polynomial function, m=3 is set. The radar parameters are set as follows: the incident frequency is 8GHz, the elevation angle is 90°, the azimuth angle is 0-180°, and the HV polarization. After the scattering center model is established, the RCS result of the full-wave numerical method is compared.
