Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A design method of a vehicle-mounted PIFA antenna based on a genetic algorithm comprises the following steps:
step 1, obtaining a basic PIFA antenna structure through modeling, wherein the antenna is of a three-dimensional structure and comprises a radiation unit 1, a metal short-circuit sheet 2, a coaxial feeder 3 and a ground plane 4; the radiating element is parallel to the ground plane, the metal short-circuit sheet is connected with the edge of the radiating element and the ground plane, and the coaxial feeder penetrates through the ground plane to feed. As shown in fig. 1.
Step 2, realizing multi-frequency by changing the structure of the radiation unit of the antenna in the step 1: and combining a genetic algorithm, carrying out structural optimization by a mode of slotting on the radiating unit, and realizing multiband by using a multi-slot method.
And 2, improving the genetic algorithm in terms of coding mode, population initialization and fitness calculation.
Genetic algorithms can solve the non-linearity problem and are used to optimize the antenna.
The selection, crossing and variation are used in genetic algorithm to correspond to the selection, crossing and mutation of organisms, and the three genetic operators act on the population P (t) in sequence to obtain a new population P (t + 1). The specific steps for these three genetic operators are as follows;
selecting an operator: according to the set method, according to the calculated fitness of each generation of individuals, selecting a part of individuals with higher fitness from the t generation population P (t), and then transmitting the individuals to the next generation population P (t + 1);
and (3) a crossover operator: firstly, randomly collocating individuals in a population P (t), then exchanging partial chromosomes of the individuals per se for each pair of individuals according to the probability set in advance, wherein the probability set by the individuals is called as cross probability or cross rate;
mutation operator: for each individual in the population P (t), the gene values at certain positions are replaced by alleles with a certain probability, which is called the mutation rate.
As shown in fig. 2, the operation logic of the genetic algorithm is: firstly, carrying out initialization operation to model actual problems; then setting an evolutionary termination condition, and taking M randomly generated individuals as an initial population P (0); then, evaluating the individuals of each generation, wherein the main method is to calculate the fitness value of each individual in the current population P (1); and finally, judging whether the current population P (t) reaches a termination condition or not according to the fitness value of each generation: if the termination condition is reached, stopping circulation, and outputting the individual with the maximum fitness in the contemporary population as an optimal solution; if the termination condition is not met, the genetic operation is carried out on the individuals in the current population P (t), then the next generation population P (t +1) can be obtained, and then the second step and the third step are carried out on the P (t +1) repeatedly until the termination condition is met.
The improvement of the invention in coding mode, initializing population and calculating fitness is as follows:
first, in the encoding method, binary encoding is used, and the gene sequence is represented by a binary string or a binary array. Different slots are formed on the PIFA antenna for the radiating elements to generate a plurality of working frequency bands, and the structure of the surface of the PIFA is used as a gene on a chromosome in a genetic algorithm. The surface radiation element of the PIFA antenna is divided into a plurality of small squares, as shown in fig. 3, each small square having a value of "1" or "0"; when the value of the small square is 1, the position is metal, and conversely 0 represents that the position needs to be opened; a two-dimensional array is used for representing the structure of the radiation unit of the PIFA antenna, namely corresponding to different PIFA antennas.
Second, the initialization population is refined. According to design experience, U-shaped and T-shaped gap structures are usually adopted when the radiation units are grooved, in order to avoid the condition of a suspended structure, a cross-shaped gap structure is adopted when a seed group is initialized, and the U-shaped or T-shaped gap structure can be generated after genetic operation of the cross-shaped gap structure. On the other hand, it can be known from the multi-frequency technology that two slots are generally used to generate a dual-frequency result, so that two cross-shaped slot structures are adopted in the initialization population. Specific operations As shown in FIG. 3, a set of decimal arrays (X) of eight digits arranged from small to large is first randomly generated 1 ,X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 ,X 5 ,X 6 ,X 7 ,X 8 ) Then randomly generating two sets of four-digit decimal arrays (Y) arranged from small to large 11 ,Y 12 ,Y 13 ,Y 14 ) And (Y) 21 ,Y 22 ,Y 23 ,Y 24 ). That is, the straight line X ═ X 1 X is a straight line 4 Y being a straight line 11 And a straight line Y ═ Y 14 Can be enclosed into a rectangle, and then a straight line X is equal to X 2 Wherein X is X 3 Y being a straight line 12 And a straight line Y ═ Y 13 This rectangle is cut into a cross-shaped structure. The value of the square grid in the cross-shaped internal area is 0, namely the gap is formed. By the same token, line X ═ X 5 X is a straight line 6 X is a straight line 7 X is a straight line 8 Y being a straight line 21 Y being a straight line 24 Y being a straight line 21 And a straight line Y ═ Y 24 Or a cross-shaped structure can be enclosed, and the value of the square in the internal area of the cross-shaped structure is also 0. Due to (X) 1 ,X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 ,X 5 ,X 6 ,X 7 ,X 8 ) The double-cross-shaped structure generated by the method can not be crossed, namely, suspended patches can not be generated. The initialized population generated by the method can ensure that the structure of each filial generation is correct, and the iteration times are greatly reduced, thereby reducing the calculation amount and further shortening the calculation time of a computer.
Finally, the optimization method for calculating the fitness of each child is as follows: because the antenna designed by the invention is dual-frequency, only the reflection coefficient of the antenna, namely S, needs to be considered 11 The value of the parameter. The working frequency of the WLAN applied in the invention is mainly as follows: 2.4-2.484GHz, 5.12-5.35GHz and 5.725-5.825GHz, the working frequency of 5G is mainly as follows: 3.3-3.4GHz, 3.400-3.6GHz and 4.8-5 GHz. 2.4-2.484GHz and 4.8-5GHz are selected as working frequency bands of the designed vehicle-mounted communication antenna as an embodiment, so that the adaptability is two frequency bands S 11 Sum of absolute values of the parameters.

The invention is described in further detail below with reference to specific embodiments, simulations and drawings.
Example 1
The present embodiment utilizes a method of HFSS and Matlab joint simulation to design a PIFA antenna, which is applied to vehicle-mounted communications, mainly in WLAN and 5G communication modes, and the operating frequency band covers two frequency bands of 2.4-2.484GHz and 4.8-5 GHz. As shown in fig. 6, the HFSS-Matlab-Api script library is called in Matlab to perform modeling and performance simulation of the antenna, and then the shape of the antenna radiating element is optimized by using a modified genetic algorithm. The method comprises the following specific steps:
step S1: the basic PIFA antenna configuration is obtained by modeling. The basic PIFA antenna structure is shown in fig. 1, the materials are all copper, and the medium between the radiating element and the ground plate is air. The size of the radiating element and the ground plane is 10mm multiplied by 15mm, the size of the metal short circuit board is 2.5mm multiplied by 8mm, the distance between the position of the coaxial feeder line and the long side of the ground plane is 1.9mm, and the distance between the position of the coaxial feeder line and the short side of the ground plane is 5 mm. The simulation result of the S parameter before optimization is shown in FIG. 7, which has only one frequency band at 3.62GHz, the bandwidth of 3.5-3.7GHz, and the value of S11 is only-13 dB.
Step S2: and optimizing the basic PIFA antenna structure by combining a genetic algorithm, and realizing multi-frequency by using a multi-slot method.
The joint simulation process of HFSS and Matlab is as follows:
s2.1, coding and establishing an initialization population;
s2.2, evaluating the individual fitness in the group;
s2.3, judging whether the termination condition is met: if the termination condition is met, ending the algorithm and outputting an optimal result; if the termination condition is not met, performing genetic operation according to the fitness to generate new filial generations.
An improved genetic algorithm is operated in Matlab, and offspring is generated through encoding, population initialization, fitness calculation and genetic operation.
In step S2.1, the encoding is in a binary encoding manner. The radiation units of the present embodiment are divided into 0.5mm × 0.5mm small squares for a total of 600. Each filial generation is a binary two-dimensional array of 20 × 30, each digit corresponds to a small grid on the radiation unit, and if the value is "1", the position is metal, otherwise "0" indicates that the position needs to be opened.
In order to avoid errors caused by the fact that the cross-shaped gap and the radiating unit are surrounded by metal to form a suspended patch when a seed group is initialized, the cross-shaped gap is adopted. Randomly generating a set of decimal arrays (X) of eight digits arranged from small to large in the range of 2-29 1 ,X 2 ,X 3 ,X 4 ,X 5 ,X 6 ,X 7 ,X 8 ) Two sets of small to large arranged four digit decimal arrays (Y) are randomly generated in the range of 2-19 11 ,Y 12 ,Y 13 ,Y 14 ) And (Y) 21 ,Y 22 ,Y 23 ,Y 24 ) (ii) a Then the value of the grid in the formed double-cross-shaped internal area is 0; then, the number of the population is set to be 50, and the number of iterations is set to be 20.
In the step 2.2, the fitness is calculated, because the antenna designed by the invention is dual-frequency, only the reflection coefficient of the antenna, namely S, needs to be considered 11 The value of the parameter. The working frequency of the WLAN applied in the invention is mainly as follows: 2.4-2.484GHz, 5.12-5.35GHz and 5.725-5.825GHz, the working frequency of 5G is mainly as follows: 3.3-3.4GHz, 3.400-3.6GHz and 4.8-5 GHz. As shown in the embodiment of the invention, 2.4-2.484GHz and 4.8-5GHz are selected as the working frequency bands of the designed vehicle-mounted communication antenna, so that the adaptability is two frequency bands S 11 Sum of absolute values of the parameters. The specific frequency may be different according to the start frequency, the end frequency and the number of frequency bands set by the simulation.
In the step 2.2, the step of the method,in the process of calculating the fitness, an HFSS-Matlab-Api script library is called in Matlab to automatically open the HFSS, and modeling simulation is carried out in HSS, so as to obtain the accurate S of each frequency band 11 Parameter, finally returning S of each frequency band 11 And the HFSS is automatically turned off as a result, the adaptability of each antenna structure is ensured to be obtained through simulation, and the accuracy of the result is improved. After 60 iterations, the optimized result is obtained.
The process of the above simulation, in which the fitness output by the process is changed, is shown in fig. 8, and it can be seen in the figure that the final output result is convergent, and the final fitness can reach 63.
The optimal result of the simulation output is shown in fig. 9, which is a 20 × 30 binary two-dimensional array reflecting the structure of the antenna radiating element.
The antenna structure for this optimal array of outputs is shown as: fig. 4 is a perspective view of the antenna, and fig. 5 is a structure of the antenna radiation unit and the ground plane. It can be seen that the slot of the last antenna is a rectangular slot connected to a "T" slot.
The simulation result of the optimized S parameter is shown in fig. 10, which shows that the antenna has two frequency bands, and the working frequency points of 2.4GHz and 4.9GHz completely meet the design requirements of the embodiment. The bandwidths of the two frequency bands are 0.05GHz and 0.4GHz respectively. The values of S11 at both frequency points are also lower than-10 dB, reaching-16.5 dB and-18 dB respectively.
And the optimized S parameter meets the design requirement, and then the radiation characteristic of the antenna is analyzed. The E and H plane directional patterns of the antenna at 2.4GHz are shown in FIG. 11 (a); the pattern of the E, H plane at 4.9GHz is shown in FIG. 11 (b); the 3D radiation patterns of the two frequency bands are shown in fig. 11(c) and 11 (D). The gain range of the antenna is shown in fig. 11 as-5 dB to 1.9dB at 2.4GHz and-9.5 dB to 3dB at 4.9GHz, the antenna having a horizontal omnidirectional radiation characteristic.
And then analyzing the parameters of the antenna, and checking the influence of the antenna parameters on the performance of the antenna to verify the accuracy of the genetic algorithm optimization. First, the antenna is dimensioned as shown in fig. 5, and if the influence of the antenna parameters on the antenna size is observed, the antenna must be observedSurface current profile of the wire, L, is seen from the current of the antenna of FIG. 12 operating at 2.4GHz 1 、L 2 And W 1 The current in the vicinity is large, and the three parameters influence the performance of the antenna when the antenna operates at 2.4 GHz. Similarly, L can be seen in FIG. 13 1 、L 2 、L 3 And W 1 These four parameters affect the performance of the antenna when operating at 4.9 GHz. Therefore, mainly explore L 1 、L 2 、L 3 And W 1 The effect of these three parameters on the antenna.
First, explore L 1 Impact on antenna performance. FIG. 14 reflects the parameter L 1 And when the S parameter of the antenna changes, the S parameter of the antenna changes. When L is 1 When the size is larger than or equal to 10.5mm, the rectangular slot exceeds the edge of the antenna, and the antenna only has one frequency band at 4.6 GHz. When L is 1 L is less than or equal to 10.5mm 1 The change of (b) has a greater influence on the radiation frequency of low frequencies, with L 1 The low frequency band may be shifted left. And L is 1 The reflection coefficient is mainly influenced for the high frequency band and is relatively less sensitive than the low frequency band. Comprehensively considering that the performance of the antenna is more in accordance with the requirement L when the value is equal to 9.5mm 1 And the result is matched with the optimization result of the genetic algorithm.
Next, explore L 2 Impact on antenna performance. FIG. 15 reflects the parameter L 2 And when the S parameter of the antenna changes, the S parameter of the antenna changes. When L is 2 When changed, the changes of both frequency bands are not obvious, so L 2 The antenna performance is less affected. After genetic algorithm optimization L 2 Results equal to 4mm are consistent with the sweep.
Then, explore L 3 Impact on antenna performance. FIG. 16 reflects the parameter L 3 And when the S parameter of the antenna changes, the S parameter of the antenna changes. When L is 3 When the frequency band is changed, the change of the low frequency band is insensitive, and the change of the high frequency band is more obvious. But with L 3 The two frequency bands are shifted to the right by increasing the reflection coefficient, and the reflection coefficient is reduced accordingly. Taking into account design requirements, L 3 The performance of the antenna is in accordance with the requirement when the antenna is equal to 1mm or 1.5mm, and the optimization result L of the genetic algorithm is included 3 =1.5mm。
Finally, explore W 1 Impact on antenna performance. FIG. 17 reflects the parameter W 1 And when the S parameter of the antenna changes, the S parameter of the antenna changes. When W is 1 Both frequency bands are sensitive to changes when changed. When W 1 When the size is larger than or equal to 7mm, the rectangular groove also exceeds the edge of the antenna, and the antenna only has one frequency band at 4.4 GHz. When W 1 Less than 7mm and follows W 1 The two frequency bands are shifted to the left, and the change of the reflection coefficient is not obvious. Two frequency bands, W, taking into account design requirements 1 The performance of the antenna is most consistent when the antenna is equal to 5mm, and is just the optimization result of the genetic algorithm.
Example 2
The final PIFA antenna obtained by the method of embodiment 1 includes a radiating element, a metal shorting strip, a coaxial feeder and a ground plane, the dimensions of the PIFA antenna are 10mm × 15mm × 8mm, the PIFA antenna is made of copper, and the thickness of the PIFA antenna is 1 mm.
Because the PIFA antenna is a three-dimensional structure, each side needs to be fabricated and then welded together. Drawing the designed PIFA antenna into an Autocad graph, and then entrusting a factory to cut a copper plate, and respectively cutting a radiating element, a grounding plate and a short-circuit piece. The adopted SMA is D361D25F02-430 of Nanjing Aoyao venturi technology company, and the SMA can provide a coaxial probe with the length of 10.92mm and the diameter of 0.64mm, so that the feeding requirement of the designed PIFA is met. Finally, welding the parts together to manufacture the PIFA antenna.
After the antenna is manufactured, the antenna index is measured. The equipment used was a vector network analyzer model KEYSIGHT N5227A, measured in a microwave dark room. Firstly, before measurement, a vector network analyzer needs to be initially calibrated; after calibration, the PIFA antenna is connected to a vector network analyzer, so that the S parameter of the antenna can be directly measured; finally, the measurement results are derived, and after the dead pixel is removed, a graph 18 can be drawn.
Because the antenna is manufactured by adopting a welding process, the radiation unit and the ground plane cannot be ensured to be completely parallel. And the antenna size is too small, and the welding spot can also have great influence on the antenna. The actually measured result and the simulation result of the PIFA antenna come in and go out. The reflection coefficient of the real object is significantly reduced and the frequency bands are also shifted slightly to the left.
