The invention discloses a
plasma electron density distribution microwave diagnosis method based on a
particle swarm algorithm, and the method comprises the steps: measuring the phase of an electromagnetic wave without / with
plasma through a phase interference principle, obtaining actually-measured phase interference data, calculating an
electron density mean value according to the actually-measured phase interference data, and carrying out the calculation of the
electron density mean value; generating a plurality of different initial
electron density distributions, and then performing multi-order fitting on the initial
electron density distributions to obtain an
electron density distribution fitting formula; fitting coefficients in the fitting formula serve as particles of a
particle swarm algorithm, and an initial
population is generated; according to the initial
population,
plasma electron density distribution is obtained through iterative solution by means of the
particle swarm algorithm, phase interference data, corresponding to the
electron density distribution, of particles are calculated through a
ray tracing method in iteration and serve as analog phase interference data, and the particle fitness is calculated according to the analog phase interference data and actually-measured phase interference data. According to the invention, the
electron density distribution diagnosis precision and the
resource utilization rate in the strong
refraction scene are effectively improved.
