Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electromagnetic environment effect testing technology, and more specifically, to a testing device and method for the combined effects of lightning and HIRF systems. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of avionics technology, the sensitivity of aircraft electronic and electrical systems to the electromagnetic environment is increasing. Lightning and high-frequency electromagnetic radiation (HIRF) are the main strong electromagnetic environments encountered by aircraft during flight, posing a serious threat to the performance and safety of aircraft electronic and electrical systems. Currently, there is limited research on the combined effects of lightning and HIRF both domestically and internationally, and a lack of testing methods for the combined protection performance against lightning and HIRF is also lacking. Therefore, it is particularly important to construct a system-level test device for the combined effects of lightning and HIRF, and to propose a new testing method for the combined effects to support the evaluation of the combined protection performance against lightning and HIRF.
[0003] Currently, patents related to the indirect effects of lightning and HIRF mainly focus on individual tests of lightning or HIRF, with fewer focusing on comprehensive test methods.
[0004] For example, patent applications such as "An experimental device and method for testing the indirect effects of lightning and HIRF conduction sensitivity of aircraft" (Patent Publication No.: CN119165283A) and "A comprehensive experimental device and method for testing the indirect effects of lightning and HIRF radiation sensitivity of a system" (Patent Publication No.: CN119024087A) demonstrate that the second patent is based on a reverberation chamber environment. However, due to the randomness of polarization direction and the isotropic nature of irradiation angle in the HIRF environment of the reverberation chamber, this method cannot accurately analyze and evaluate the comprehensive effects of lightning and HIRF on equipment and systems under different polarization directions and irradiation angles. Furthermore, the high field strength within the reverberation chamber significantly impacts the testing equipment for the indirect effects of lightning. This equipment must be placed outside the reverberation chamber and requires long cables for lightning signal injection, making it difficult to achieve narrow pulses with fast rising edges, resulting in limited waveform limitations in the lightning indirect effect test.

[0057] The test monitoring module includes an EUT measuring instrument 41 and a line impedance stabilization network 42 located in an anechoic chamber 1.

[0060] The integrated control terminal, the test monitoring module, the lightning indirect effect test module, and the HIRF sensitivity test module are all electrically connected to the integrated control terminal.
[0061] Antenna 23, RF amplifier 22 and radiation signal generator 21 are electrically connected in sequence. Radiation signal generator 21 is used to output the set HIRF radiation sensitivity test signal to RF amplifier 22.
[0062] The radio frequency amplifier 22 is used to amplify the input HIRF radiation susceptibility test signal and transmit it to the antenna 23;

[0066] The near end 26 of the photoelectric converter is used to convert optical signals into electrical signals;

[0068] The lightning injection probe 33 is electrically connected to the transient signal generator 31, and the lightning current monitoring probe 34 and the lightning voltage detection ring 35 are both electrically connected to the oscilloscope 32.
[0069] Lightning voltage detection ring 35 is used to detect lightning voltage injection signals in the cable under test;
[0070] The transient signal generator 31 is used to generate the set test level and adjust the waveform parameters of the test level;
[0071] The lightning injection probe 33 is used to couple and inject the test level into the cable under test;
[0072] The lightning current monitoring probe 34 is used to monitor the lightning current injection signal in the cable under test.
[0073] It should be noted that, as Figure 3 As shown, the specific steps included in the combined lightning and HIRF system-level effects test on the tested electronic and electrical system are as follows:
[0074] Step S1: Construct an anechoic chamber 1, a test monitoring module, a lightning indirect effect testing module, and a HIRF sensitivity testing module;
[0075] Step S2: Perform HIRF radiation susceptibility test field strength calibration in the range of 100MHz to 18GHz, calibrate the transient signal generator 31 at the specified test level, and record the voltage waveform when the calibration loop is open and the current waveform when it is short-circuited.
[0076] Step S3: Power on the tested electronic and electrical system, select the working mode, and maintain the tested electronic and electrical system into a stable working state;
[0077] Step S4: For the tested electronic and electrical system that cannot be fully covered by the overall HIRF irradiation, calculate the 3dB beamwidth of the antenna 23 based on the size of the tested electronic and electrical system and the HIRF test distance, calculate the displacement step of the antenna 23 based on the 3dB beamwidth of the antenna 23, use single antenna 23 equivalent test, and control the single displacement of the antenna 23 to not exceed the 3dB beamwidth through the synchronous position adjustment component 24.
[0078] Step S5: Set the frequency, polarization mode, and irradiation angle of the HIRF radiation sensitivity test and start the test.

[0087] Step S11: Change the frequency of the HIRF sensitivity test, and repeat steps S3 to S10 until the termination frequency of the HIRF test is reached.
[0088] Step S12: Change the operating mode of the tested electronic and electrical system, and repeat steps S3 to S11 until all operating modes of the tested electronic and electrical system are reached; thereby completing the comprehensive lightning and HIRF protection performance evaluation of the electronic and electrical system. The lightning and HIRF comprehensive effect test device constructed based on an anechoic chamber environment can solve the problem that existing lightning and HIRF comprehensive effect test devices cannot accurately analyze and evaluate equipment and systems under different polarization directions and different irradiation angles due to the randomness of polarization direction and the isotropic nature of irradiation angle in the reverberation chamber HIRF environment. This invention addresses issues such as the combined effects of lightning and HIRF and the limitations of lightning test waveforms. Furthermore, through the synchronous position adjustment component 24, the antenna 23 and the electric field sensor 28 can be synchronously adjusted in three-dimensional space (up / down, left / right, and forward / backward). It has good compatibility and is simple to implement in engineering. It can support system-level tests of the combined effects of lightning and HIRF under different polarization modes, irradiation angles, and various lightning waveforms. It can solve the problem of unknown combined lightning and HIRF protection performance of aircraft electronic and electrical systems and reduce potential hazards to safe flight of aircraft in lightning and HIRF environments.
[0089] In an optional embodiment of the invention, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the synchronous position adjustment assembly 24 includes a support group 2401, a motor 2402 fixedly connected to the support group 2401, a lead screw 2403 and a limiting slide rod 2404 symmetrically and movably connected to the support group 2401, a limiting slide rail 2405 connected between the lead screw 2403 and the limiting slide rod 2404, a motor 2406 fixedly connected to the limiting slide rail 2405, a lead screw 2407 movably connected to the limiting slide rail 2405, a limiting slide block 2408 slidably connected to the limiting slide rail 2405, a motor 2409 fixedly connected to the limiting slide block 2408 and a limiting post 2410, a lead screw 2411 movably connected to the limiting slide block 2408, and a slidably connected... The sliding support plate 2412 on the limiting post 2410, the fixed support rod 2413 fixedly connected to the sliding support plate 2412, and the fixed support plate 2414 fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed support rod 2413, the lead screw 1 2403, lead screw 2407, and lead screw 3 2411 are respectively connected to the output shaft ends of motor 1 2402, motor 2406, and motor 3 2409, the limiting slide rail 2405, the limiting slide block 2408, and the sliding support plate 2412 are respectively threaded to lead screw 1 2403, lead screw 2407, and lead screw 3 2411, the electric field sensor 28 is connected to the fixed support plate 2414, and the fixed support plate 2414 is provided with an adapter hole for the limiting post 2410 and lead screw 3 2411 to pass through.
[0090] It should be noted that, as described above, when adjusting the positions of antenna 23 and electric field sensor 28 within the anechoic chamber 1 using the synchronous position adjustment component 24, motor 1 2402 can drive lead screw 1 2403 to rotate. One end of the limiting slide rail 2405 is threadedly connected to lead screw 1 2403, and the other end is slidably connected to limiting slide rod 2404. Therefore, when lead screw 1 2403 rotates, the limiting slide rail 2405, whose movement direction is restricted, can only move along the X-axis under the drive of lead screw 1 2403. When the limiting slide rail 2405 moves, it can drive motor 22 2406, lead screw 22 2407, limiting slide block 2408, motor 3 2409, limiting post 2410, lead screw 3 2411, sliding support plate 2412, fixed support rod 2413, and fixed support plate 2414 connected to it to move in the same direction and at the same distance, thereby simultaneously driving antenna 23 and electric field sensor 28. 8. When the motor 2406 drives the lead screw 2407 to rotate, it can drive the limit slide 2408, which is slidably connected to the limit slide rail 2405, to move along the Y-axis. This causes the motor 2409, limit column 2410, lead screw 2411, sliding support plate 2412, fixed support rod 2413, and fixed support plate 2414 connected to it to move in the same direction and at the same distance. This enables the antenna 23 and the electric field sensor 28 to move synchronously along the Y-axis. When the motor 2409 drives the lead screw 2411 to rotate, the sliding support plate 2412, whose movement direction is restricted by the limit column 2410 and lead screw 2411, can only move along the Z-axis. This drives the fixed support rod 2413 and fixed support plate 2414 connected to it to move synchronously. This achieves the effect of the antenna 23 and the electric field sensor 28 moving synchronously along the Z-axis.
[0091] It should be noted that the specific structure and / or material and / or size and / or position within the anechoic chamber 1 of the above-mentioned support group 2401, lead screw 1 2403, limiting slide rod 2404, limiting slide rail 2405, lead screw 2 2407, limiting slide block 2408, limiting column 2410, lead screw 3 2411, sliding support plate 2412, fixed support rod 2413, and fixed support plate 2414 can all be adjusted according to the experimental design parameters. Furthermore, motor 1 2402, motor 2 2406, and motor 3 2409 are all treated to prevent electromagnetic interference, so as to eliminate any interference that their electromagnetic radiation may cause to the HIRF radiation environment.
[0092] In an optional embodiment of the invention, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, an irradiance angle adjustment mechanism 7 is connected between the sliding support plate 2412 and the antenna 23. The irradiance angle adjustment mechanism 7 is used to adjust the irradiance angle of the antenna 23.
[0093] The irradiation angle adjustment mechanism 7 includes a rotating shaft 701 movably connected to the sliding support plate 2412, a gear ring 702 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 701, a motor 703 fixedly connected to the sliding support plate 2412, a gear 704 connected to the output shaft end of the motor 703, a gear 704 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 701, a motor 706 fixedly connected to the hinge frame 705, and a hinge plate 707 hinged to the hinge frame 705. The hinge plate 707 is fixedly connected to the antenna 23, the gear ring 702 meshes with the gear 704, and the output shaft end of the motor 706 is fixedly connected to the hinge plate 707.
[0094] It should be noted that, as mentioned above, when adjusting the irradiance angle, the gear 704 can be driven to rotate by the motor 703. When the gear 704 rotates, it can drive the gear ring 702 to rotate. When the gear ring 702 rotates, it can drive the rotating shaft 701, the hinge frame 705, the motor 706, the hinge plate 707 and the antenna 23 to rotate in the same direction and at the same angle. The motor 706 can drive the hinge plate 707 to rotate around the axis at the hinge point with the hinge frame 705 to set the angle, thereby adjusting the specific irradiance angle of the antenna 23.
[0095] In an optional embodiment of the invention, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, telescopic isolation mechanisms 5 are connected between the sliding support plate 2412 and the limiting slide 2408, between the motor 2409 and the anechoic chamber 1, between the antenna 23 and the anechoic chamber 1, and between the electric field sensor 28 and the far end 27 of the photoelectric converter. The telescopic isolation mechanism 5 includes a telescopic isolation sleeve 502 and a through hole 501 communicating with the internal space of the telescopic isolation sleeve 502. The through hole 501 is provided on the limiting slide 2408, the anechoic chamber 1, or the far end 27 of the photoelectric converter.
[0096] It should be noted that, as mentioned above, the antenna 23 and the electric field sensor 28 need to be positioned. The motors 2402, 2406, 2409, 703, and 706 in the synchronous position adjustment assembly 24 are all movable. Thus, the power supply lines of the above-mentioned electrical components are wrapped by the telescopic isolation mechanism 5. On the one hand, this is to treat the electromagnetic radiation that may be generated and prevent it from affecting the HIRF radiation environment. On the other hand, it can constrain the shape of the power supply lines during movement to prevent them from affecting other structures. Moreover, the telescopic structure can prevent the power supply lines from being mostly spread on the inner wall of the anechoic chamber 1. If a protective layer that follows the shape of the power supply cable is used, it is impossible to constrain its position and shape. This would cause distributed capacitance to form between the protective layer and the absorbing material on the inner wall of the anechoic chamber 1, thereby interfering with the measurement results.
[0097] In an optional embodiment of the invention, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a pressure regulating mechanism 6 is connected between the motor 2409 and the anechoic chamber 1. The pressure regulating mechanism 6 includes a telescopic isolation sleeve 2 601, several air holes 1 602 provided on the telescopic isolation sleeve 2 601, several air holes 2 provided on the telescopic isolation sleeve 1 502, and a pressure regulator located outside the anechoic chamber 1. The air holes 1 602 and air holes 2 do not overlap. The inner walls of the telescopic isolation sleeve 1 502, the telescopic isolation sleeve 2 601, and the anechoic chamber 1 are all provided with wave-absorbing material. The telescopic isolation sleeve 2 601 is fitted outside the telescopic isolation sleeve 1 502. The pressure regulator is used to obtain and regulate the air pressure parameters inside the anechoic chamber 1.
[0098] It should be noted that, as mentioned above, the air pressure inside the anechoic chamber 1 changes when the telescopic isolation sleeve 502 is stretched and compressed. In order to maintain the pressure inside the anechoic chamber 1 at a set value, a telescopic isolation sleeve 601 is fitted over one of the telescopic isolation sleeves 502. Air holes 602 and 602 are respectively opened on the telescopic isolation sleeve 601 and the telescopic isolation sleeve 502. The air pressure change value inside the anechoic chamber 1 is obtained by the air pressure sensor in the air pressure regulator, and the air pressure inside the anechoic chamber 1 is regulated by the air pump in the air pressure regulator. This allows the air pressure inside the anechoic chamber 1 to be dynamically adjusted in accordance with the synchronous position adjustment component 24 as it adjusts the position of the antenna 23 and the electric field sensor 28. This reduces experimental interference factors, improves the accuracy of experimental data, and also improves the realism of the simulation by changing the air pressure inside the anechoic chamber 1, which can further improve the authority and accuracy of the experimental data.
[0099] The above description of this embodiment is not limited to the specific implementation described above. The specific implementation described above is merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms based on the guidance of this embodiment, all of which are within the protection scope of this embodiment.
