- the invention has the object to show a simple decoy, which can be used to protect an object.
- the invention refers to recent measures for camouflaging objects, the so-called stealth cap technology, which are applied to the surfaces of the objects or platforms, which consist of absorbent materials in thick-film or composite technology.

- the absorbing behavior is reduced and becomes highly dependent on the layer thickness and choice of absorbent material.
- only a frequency-limited protection is guaranteed.
- the invention is therefore based on the idea of creating a decoys that can absorb high-frequency (invisible) electromagnetic radiation similar to camouflage, so that an object to be protected is not visible behind a camouflage cloud created by the decoys for a radar-steered flying object.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Täuschkörper zum Schutz von Objekten mittels Absorption elektromagnetischer Strahlung und beschäftigt sich mit einem Täuschkörper als Gegenmaßnahme zum Schutz von Objekten gegen radargestützte Raketen, Flugkörper oder dergleichen Flugobjekte, insbesondere mit der Schaffung eines Täuschkörpers zur Ausbildung einer Schutzwolke oder Schutzwand, mit der hochfrequente, nichtsichtbare Strahlungen absorbiert werden können. Zur Schaffung einer derartigen Wolke ist der Einsatz von chiralen Materialien im Täuschkörper vorgesehen. Um eine effektiv wirkende Wolke auch in hochfrequenten Bereich zu schaffen, wird die Wirkung von insbesondere chiralen radarabsorbierenden Materialien erhöht. Des Weiteren beschäftigt sich die Erfindung mit der Erhöhung der Wirkung dieser Täuschkörper durch Verwendung von frequenzspezifisch angepassten chiralen, radarabsorbierenden Materialien (CHIRRAM).The invention relates to a decoy for the protection of objects by absorbing electromagnetic radiation and deals with a decoy as a countermeasure for the protection of objects against radar missiles, missiles or similar flying objects, in particular with the creation of a decoy to form a protective cloud or protective wall, with the high-frequency , non-visible radiations can be absorbed. To create such a cloud, the use of chiral materials in the decoy is provided. In order to create an effective-acting cloud in the high-frequency range, the effect of particular chiral radar-absorbing materials is increased. Furthermore, the invention is concerned with increasing the effect of these decoys by using frequency-specific adapted chiral radar absorbing materials (CHIRRAM).
Bei Angriffen einer radargestützten Rakete etc., insbesondere auf mobilen Plattformen, wie Schiffe, Flugzeuge und Fahrzeuge als auch stationären Gebäuden sind mehrere Gegenmaßnahmen bekannt.In attacks of a radar-based missile, etc., especially on mobile platforms, such as ships, aircraft and vehicles, as well as stationary buildings, several countermeasures are known.
In einer ersten Variante sieht man als Gegenmaßnahme den Abschuss sogenannter Düppel aus metallischen Fasern, wie Staniol, zur Ausbildung einer Wolke vor, die einen größeren Radarquerschnitt hat als das ursprüngliche Ziel (http://de.wikipedia.org./wiki/Düppel (Radartäuschung)),
Alternativ werden auch Flugkörper verschossen, die das ankommende Radarsignal aufnehmen, analysieren und ein Täuschsignal senden (
Eine direkte Bekämpfungsart ist das Verschießen von Raketen durch eigene Waffensysteme, wie Maschinenkanonen.A direct mode of control is the firing of missiles by their own weapons systems, such as machine guns.
Auch Jammer kommen zum Einsatz, die das ankommende Radarsignal aufnehmen, analysieren und dann ein Täuschsignal senden (
Hier stellt sich die Erfindung die Aufgabe, einen einfachen Täuschkörper aufzuzeigen, der zum Schutz eines Objektes eingesetzt werden kann.Here, the invention has the object to show a simple decoy, which can be used to protect an object.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausführungen sind in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführt.The object is achieved with the features of
Hier greift die Erfindung auf neuere Maßnahmen zur Tarnung von Objekten zurück, der sogenannten Tarnkappentechnologie, wobei auf den Oberflächen der Objekte bzw. Plattformen aufgebracht sind, die aus absorbierenden Materialien in Dickschicht- oder Komposit-Technologie bestehen. Dabei handelt es sich um isotrope Medien und Dielektrika, wie Salisbury Screen, Jaumann Absorber, Dallenbach Layer aus extrudierten/geschäumten Kunststoffen, Graphiten (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarnkappentechnik,
Grundsätzlich sind hochfrequenzabsorbierende Materialien auf spezifische Frequenzbänder ausgelegt. Bei der Tarnkappentechnologie beispielsweise entspricht der Radarquerschnitt eines F-117 Jets etwa dem eines Insektes bei 10 GHz. Bei Frequenzen von unter 2 GHz reduziert sich jedoch das absorbierende Verhalten und wird stark abhängig von der Schichtdicke und Wahl des absorbierenden Materials. Diese beeinflussen jedoch maßgeblich die Kosten, die Masse sowie Manövrierfähigkeit eines insbesondere mobilen Systems gegen radargestützte Flugkörper. Auch wird nur ein frequenzeingeschränkter Schutz gewährleistet.Basically, high frequency absorbing materials are designed for specific frequency bands. For example, in stealth cap technology, the radar cross-section of an F-117 jet is approximately that of an insect at 10 GHz. At frequencies below 2 GHz, however, the absorbing behavior is reduced and becomes highly dependent on the layer thickness and choice of absorbent material. However, these significantly affect the cost, mass and maneuverability of a particular mobile system against radar-guided missiles. Also, only a frequency-limited protection is guaranteed.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Idee zugrunde, einen Täuschkörper zu schaffen, der hochfrequente (nichtsichtbare) elektromagnetische Strahlungen ähnlich der Tarnung absorbieren kann, sodass ein zu schützendes Objekt hinter einer durch die Täuschkörper geschaffenen Tarn-Wolke für ein radargelenktes Flugobjekt etc. nicht sichtbar ist. Damit wird im Gegensatz zu bekannten Schutzmaßnahmen kein Scheinziel erzeugt, sondern das Objekt selbst "versteckt".The invention is therefore based on the idea of creating a decoys that can absorb high-frequency (invisible) electromagnetic radiation similar to camouflage, so that an object to be protected is not visible behind a camouflage cloud created by the decoys for a radar-steered flying object. Thus, in contrast to known protective measures no decoy is generated, but the object itself "hidden".
Zur Schaffung einer derartigen Wolke ist der Einsatz von chiralen Materialien im Täuschkörper vorgesehen. Um eine effektiv wirkende Wolke auch in hochfrequenten Bereich zu schaffen, wird die Wirkung von insbesondere chiralen radarabsorbierenden Materialien erhöht. Dazu gibt es beispielsweise mehrere Ansätze. Als einfach beherrschbar haben sich die Erhöhungen der wirksamen Schichtdicken, insbesondere bei Frequenzen unterhalb von 2 GHz, gezeigt. Auch der Einsatz von chiralen Metallhelices frequenzspezifischer Größe ermöglichen - je nach Einsatz der Flugkörper-Radare - die Anpassung der Wolke auf den Radarsuchkopf.To create such a cloud, the use of chiral materials in the decoy is provided. In order to create an effective-acting cloud in the high-frequency range, the effect of particular chiral radar-absorbing materials is increased. There are several approaches to this, for example. The increases in the effective layer thicknesses, in particular at frequencies below 2 GHz, have proven to be easy to control. The use of chiral metal helices of a frequency-specific size also enables the adaptation of the cloud to the radar seeker, depending on the use of the missile radars.
Letztgenannter Ansatz - der Einsatz von metallischen Helices - soll nunmehr näher betrachtet werden.The latter approach - the use of metallic helices - will now be considered in more detail.
Ein chirales Material wird üblicherweise durch eine Vielzahl regellos orientierter, elektrisch leitender chiraler Objekte gebildet, die in ein homogenes isolierendes Wirtsmaterial - zum Beispiel PU-Schäume - eingebettet sind.A chiral material is usually formed by a multiplicity of randomly oriented, electrically conducting chiral objects embedded in a homogeneous insulating host material, for example PU foams.
Chirale Objekte, wie beispielsweise ein metallischer Helix, weisen eine Wechselwirkung mit einer elektromagnetischen Welle auf. Das elektrische Wechselfeld influenziert Ladungen, die einen Strom zur Folge haben, der nicht nur in den geraden Stücken der Helix fließt, sondern auch im kreisförmigen Segment. Folglich kommt es neben der elektrischen auch zu einer magnetischen Polarisation. Die vom magnetischen Wechselfeld induzierte Spannung führt analog zu einer magnetischen und einer zusätzlichen elektrischen Polarisation mit umgekehrten Vorzeichen.Chiral objects, such as a metallic helix, interact with an electromagnetic wave. The alternating electric field induces charges that result in current flowing not only in the straight pieces of the helix but also in the circular segment. Consequently, in addition to the electrical also to a magnetic polarization. The voltage induced by the alternating magnetic field leads analogously to a magnetic and an additional electrical polarization with the opposite sign.
Ein Material, aufgebaut aus chiralen Objekten ist somit in der Lage, sowohl die elektrische Verschiebungsdichte als auch die magnetische Induktion über elektrische Feldstärke und magnetische Feldstärke zu beeinflussen, was in der Praxis auch als magneto-elektrische Kopplung bezeichnet wird.A material constructed of chiral objects is thus able to influence both the electrical shift density and the magnetic induction via electric field strength and magnetic field strength, which is also referred to in practice as magneto-electrical coupling.
Ist das chirale Objekt beispielsweise ein Kupferhelix, so hat sich gezeigt, dass dieser für sich oder im Ensemble nur für bestimmte Frequenzen einer anregenden elektromagnetischen Welle in Resonanz ist (kommt). Infolge dessen ist ein dispersives Verhalten des chiralen Materials zu erwarten. Der qualitative Verlauf der komplexen Stoffparameter - Permittivität, Permeabilität und Chiralität als Funktion der Frequenz - gibt die Materialresonanzen an.If the chiral object is, for example, a copper helix, it has been shown that it resonates (for itself) or in the ensemble only for certain frequencies of a stimulating electromagnetic wave. As a result, a dispersive behavior of the chiral material is to be expected. The qualitative course of the complex material parameters - permittivity, permeability and chirality as a function of frequency - indicates the material resonances.
Die Imaginärteile, die Verlusten entsprechen, besitzen ihr Maximum in der Resonanz. Diverse frequenzabhängige Reflexionen bei verschiedenen chiralen Absorbern zeigt beispielsweise die
Diese chiralen Objekte können beispielsweise durch Ausstoß und Bildung einer sogenannten chiralen Wolke entsprechender Dichte und Dimensionen oder mit frequenzspezifischer Größe der chiralen Metallhelices umgesetzt werden. Ein bevorzugt impulsartiger Ausstoß und Beschleunigung der letztgenannten Metallhelices kann durch Abschuss von Granaten, Munition, Flugkörper, Wirkkörper oder dergleichen geschaffen werden, welche die Helices definiert ausstoßen. Ein Ausstoß mittels Luftdruck, d.h., mit Hilfe von zwischengespeichertem komprimiertem Gas ist gleichfalls möglich. Mit Pumpen, Gebläsen, Kompressoren etc. ist neben einem impulsartigen Ausstoß ein dauerhaftes Ausstoßen realisierbar. Weitere Möglichkeiten sind Katapulte, Bögen etc., also mittels Federkraft oder dergleichen vorgespannte Systeme, sowie Railguns (schlagartige elektromechanische Umformung gespeicherter elektrischer Energie) und Kombinationen der vorgenannten Möglichkeiten.These chiral objects can be converted, for example, by ejection and formation of a so-called chiral cloud of corresponding density and dimensions or with frequency-specific size of the chiral metal helices. A preferred pulse-like ejection and acceleration of the latter metal helices can be created by launching grenades, ammunition, missiles, active bodies, or the like, which eject the helices in a defined manner. A discharge by means of air pressure, that is, by means of cached compressed gas is also possible. With pumps, fans, compressors, etc. in addition to a pulse-like ejection, a permanent ejection can be realized. Other possibilities are catapults, bows etc., ie systems biased by spring force or the like, as well as rail guns (abrupt electromechanical transformation of stored electrical energy) and combinations of the abovementioned possibilities.
Damit soll ein flexibler Einsatz von Täuschkörpern gegenüber Radarerkennungen geschaffen werden - basierend auf die Ausbildung einer Wolke mit einem erhöhten oder verkleinerten Radarquerschnitt geschaffen durch chirale Objekte. Das System ermöglicht zugleich eine einfache Nachrüstbarkeit für jegliche zu schützende Objekte sowie die Nutzung der vorhandenen Ausstoßmechanismen.In order to create a flexible use of decoys against radar detections - based on the formation of a cloud with an increased or reduced radar cross-section created by chiral objects. The system also allows easy retrofitting for any objects to be protected and the use of existing ejection mechanisms.

- Method according to Claim 4 or 5, characterized in that there is the possibility of forming with the aid of the metallic helices (2a) a chiral cloud (1) which reduces the radar cross section on the basis of the absorption of the electromagnetic waves in such a way that either adjacent structures or no object (3-5) are/is detected.
- Method according to one of Claims 4 to 7, characterized in that it is possible, in accordance with the range direction of the object (3-5), to define the course of the cloud (1) by ejection of subsequent decoys (2).
- Method according to one of Claims 4 to 8, characterized in that a preferably pulsed ejection and acceleration of the metallic helices (2a) can be produced by firing shells, munition, missiles, active bodies or the like, which eject the helices (2a) in a defined fashion.
