Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of communication, and further relates to an antenna cover electrical property estimation method based on a Taylor expansion method in the technical field of antennas. The method can be used for estimating the influence of the physical property parameters of the antenna housing on the electrical property of the antenna after the physical property parameters of the antenna housing are changed.
Background
The radome is an important component of a radar system, and the radome provides an all-weather working environment for a radar antenna. For foundation and ship-borne radars, the antenna housing enables the radar to work with high precision under various severe weather conditions, the reliability and the service life of the radar antenna are greatly improved, and the maintenance and repair cost is reduced. When the antenna housing is preliminarily designed, firstly, the margin range of physical parameters is determined, the physical parameters of the antenna housing are subjected to fluctuation type change inevitably under the influence of subsequent processing and manufacturing errors and severe environment in the service process, the electrical performance of an antenna far field is further influenced, a far field directional diagram is distorted, and the antenna housing is subjected to high-precision antenna-housing integrated system due to the high processing and manufacturing cost.
Qin Yujian, a published article "Analysis of tangent based on Matlab" (published as IEEE, published date 2006.03.20), discloses a method for estimating electrical properties after calculating the change in dielectric parameters of a lidding material using planar spectral integration. According to the method, an electromagnetic field of the inner surface of the antenna housing is calculated by performing quadruple integration on a plane wave spectrum, then a tangential electromagnetic field of the outer surface of the housing wall is calculated, and finally a curved surface integral is performed on the tangential field of the outer surface of the antenna housing along the outer surface of the antenna housing. The method has the disadvantages that the quadruple integration is carried out on the plane wave spectrum, wherein the quadruple integration causes a complex calculation process to greatly reduce the calculation efficiency, so that when the electrical property of the antenna housing is predicted, the method is complex, and the same calculation step is repeatedly carried out for many times, so that the procedure is complex when the electrical property of the antenna housing is estimated.

The method comprises the steps of firstly establishing a geometric model of an antenna and a feed source according to structural parameters of the parabolic antenna, dividing the antenna model into grids according to one fifth of wavelength, solving a far-field value of the antenna through a physical optical method, then taking the obtained far-field value of the antenna as excitation, solving a two-dimensional far-field value of the antenna after covering the antenna through the geometric optical method, and finally comparing a two-dimensional far-field directional diagram and electrical performance indexes of the antenna to obtain an electrical performance change value of the antenna after covering the antenna. The method has the disadvantages that when the method is used for predicting the electrical property of the antenna after the antenna is covered under the severe environment, the physical property parameter of the antenna cover can be repeatedly changed, and the integral equation of a far field needs to be recalculated once every time the physical property parameter is changed, so that the method has the problems of large calculation time and calculation amount, and is not suitable for estimating the situation that the physical property parameter of the antenna cover is changed for many times.
