基于标校球的瞬态极化雷达校准方法

理论上瞬态极化雷达可获取动态目标全极化散射特性的精确测量信息,但由于存在极化通道不一致、极化隔离度有限以及背景杂波等非理想因素,其极化测量存在误差,必须进行校准。当前极化校准需要多个定标体,且定标体姿态摆放误差将引起校准偏差。针对上述问题,提出了一种基于标校球的瞬态极化雷达校准新方法,在考虑双天线空域极化特性的基础上,仅需单个金属球即可完成定标,提高了校准精度。该方法为解决制约瞬态极化雷达实际应用的校准难题提供了技术支撑。

Extrapolation of Time and Frequency Responses of Resonant Antennas Using Damped Sinusoids and Orthogonal Polynomials

An extrapolation technique is presented which reduces the computational demands of obtaining a wideband electromagnetic response from a resonant antenna using traditional computational electromagnetic methods. It has been shown that a wideband response can be extrapolated by fitting early-time and low-frequency data with a summation of orthogonal polynomials. However, representing responses characteristic of resonant structures in practice proves computationally inefficient and can lead to numerical instabilities. This paper outlines the incorporation of damped sinusoids to efficiently, accurately, and reliably extrapolate both time- and frequency-domain responses of resonant antennas due to a wideband source. A genetic algorithm is used to select the necessary extrapolation parameters. The wideband driving-point current response of several resonant antennas is accurately extrapolated. The transmission-line matrix method and the method of moments are used to compute early-time and low-frequency data, respectively. Fundamentally different discretizations of the structure of interest are used, illustrating in principle the independence of the technique and the choice of computational methods used to provide the directly-computed data.     

On two arbitrarily located identical parallel antennas

The conventional problem of two arbitrarily located parallel antennas is solved by using an integral equation technique. The two simultaneous integral equations for the two antennas are first decoupled into two independent integral equations and then solved by an approximate method with currents represented by five trigonometric functions, three for the symmetric and two for the antisymmetric parts. Typical current distributions and input admittances are obtained for half-wave and full-wave antennas in nonstaggered, in45degechelon, and in collinear arrangements. For the nonstaggered case, the results agree with experimental data. For the other two arrangements, no experimental data are yet available. However, the current distribution is also obtained by a numerical method. The two theoretical results agree favorably for all three cases. The five-term method can be extended to a general array ofN-parallel elements. This is reserved for a further report.     

An efficient numerical approach for modeling microstrip-typeantennas

An efficient numerical approach to model antennas that include a microstrip element radiating in the presence of material layers is developed. The class of antennas considered is fed through the ground plane by a coaxial transmission line. The reaction integral equation is formulated by treating the coaxial aperture as part of the antenna. The substrate thickness can be arbitrary, making this numerical technique suitable for high-frequency applications. The effects of the substrate are also included in the analysis. Numerical results are obtained for the current distribution and input impedance. The algorithm is validated with experimental results     

High frequency techniques for antenna analysis

A summary of various high-frequency techniques is presented for analyzing the electromagnetic radiation from antennas in the presence of their host environment. These techniques provide physical insight into antenna radiation mechanisms and are found to be highly efficient and accurate for treating a variety of practical antenna configurations. Examples to which these techniques have been applied include open-ended waveguide antennas, horn and reflector antennas, and antennas on aircraft and spacecraft. The accuracy of these techniques is established via numerical results which are compared with those based on other independent methods or with measurements. These high frequency methods can be combined with other techniques, through a hybrid scheme, to solve an even greater class of problems than those which can be solved in an efficient and tractable manner by any one technique alone     

Current distribution and input impedance of printed dipoles

Printed dipole antennas find increasing use in microwave as well as far infrared frequencies. The current distribution, input impedance, and radiation pattern are computed for wire antennas printed on a dielectric substrate. The current distribution is obtained by solving Pocklington's equation by moment methods. The Green's function pertinent to the problem involves improper Sommerfeld-type integrals. These integrals are computed by a real-axis integration technique which involves analytical and numerical steps. The effect of surface modes is carefully taken into account.     

Evaluating near-field radiation patterns of commercial antennas

A source reconstruction technique from the measured near fields is proposed to obtain a set of equivalent currents that will characterize the forward and backward radiation patterns of an antenna. Once the equivalent sources are determined, the electromagnetic field at any aspect angle and distance from the antenna can be calculated. In this paper, the method is applied to the evaluation of the radiation from commercial antennas at any observation point. The electric field patterns of a DCS base station antenna at 1800 MHz and a horn antenna at 2500 MHz have been calculated and plotted at several distances from the antenna. This method can be used in characterizing the "reference volumes" or exclusion zones for transmitting antennas dealing with the maximum levels of electromagnetic radiation safe for human exposure, as stated in many national and international regulations.

Self- and mutual impedances of traveling-wave linear antennas

A traveling-wave distribution of current can be produced on a conventional linear antenna, such as a dipole, through resistive loading. The self- and mutual impedances of parallel traveling-wave linear antennas are measured and compared with those of the corresponding conventional linear antennas. The effects of coupling on the input impedance of an array element is discussed, and it is shown that these effects are much less pronounced for traveling-wave antennas, which may be advantageous for some array applications     

Use of broadside twin element antennas to increase efficiency on electrically thick dielectric substrates

This paper describes a technique for using twin element antennas (dipoles and slots) to increase the efficiency of antennas fabricated on electrically thick dielectric substrates. We present calculations which show that the efficiency of both the slot and dipole antennas can be increased by the proper spacing of elements placed broadside to each other. We consider the use of substrates that are odd integral multiples of a quarter of a dielectric wavelength thick and give results for an ε=4 substrate with thicknesses of one, three, and five quarter wavelengths. These thicknesses can be used when working at millimeter wave frequencies and yield substrate dimensions which can be handled and processed easily, while still yielding radiation-to-air efficiencies of about 70%. We also show calculated beam patterns for the elements which appear to be suitable for imaging array applications.     

Coupling between transmission line antennas: analytic solution,FDTD, and measurements

Transmission line antennas are widely used elements. Analytical formulations for the coupling between transmission line antennas, e.g., loops and inverted-Ls, are developed. Furthermore, corrected current distributions that exhibit nonzero input current at the antiresonances of such elements are derived. The analytical results are compared with finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations and measurements. Also, the physics of coupling is discussed. Finally, an FDTD technique that efficiently computes the two-port network parameters of a system of two antennas is developed based on a source with an internal resistance     

Parasitic array of two loaded short antennas

A double impedance loading technique is applied in the study of a parasitic array of two loaded short antennas, Approximate solutions for the currents in the array elements are obtained. It is demonstrated that the current distributions in the array elements can be appropriately modified by optimum impedance loadings to achieve significant improvement in radiated power or directivity. Theoretical predictions are verified closely by the results of an experimental study.     

Finite phased array of microstrip patch antennas: the infinitearray approach

An efficient method of analysis of large infinite arrays based on a convolution technique that allows one to obtain the finite array characteristics from the infinite array results is presented. The edge effects are taken into account by convoluting the infinite array results with the proper current amplitude window on the array. The method is based on the use of Poisson's sum formula in the case of finite arrays applied here to microstrip antennas. It is an approximate technique that can be assimilated into a perturbation method     

An FDTD/MoM hybrid technique for modeling complex antennas in thepresence of heterogeneous grounds

Calculating the current distribution and radiation patterns for ground-penetrating radar antennas is a challenging problem because of the complex interaction between the antenna, the ground, and any buried scatterer. Typically, numerical techniques that are well suited for modeling the antennas themselves are not well suited for modeling the heterogeneous grounds, and visa versa. For example the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique is well suited for modeling fields in heterogeneous media, whereas the method of moments (MoM) is well suited for modeling complex antennas in free space. This paper describes a hybrid technique, based upon the equivalence principle, for calculating an antenna's current distribution radiation pattern when the antenna is located near an air-ground interface. The original problem is decomposed into two coupled equivalent problems: one for the antenna geometry and the other for the ground geometry, with field information passing between them via a rapidly converging iterative procedure. The fields in each region may be modeled using numerical techniques best suited to them. Results for several test cases are presented, using FDTD to model the ground problem and MoM for the antenna problem, that demonstrate the accuracy of this hybrid technique     

ESTAR: a synthetic aperture microwave radiometer for remote sensingapplications

ESTAR represents a new technology being developed for passive microwave remote sensing of the environment from space. The instrument employs an interferometric technique called aperture synthesis in which the coherent product from pairs of antennas is measured as a function of pair spacing. Substantial reductions in the antenna aperture needed for a given spatial resolution can be achieved with this technique. As a result, aperture synthesis could lead to practical passive microwave remote sensing instruments in space to measure parameters such as soil moisture and ocean salinity which require observations at long wavelengths and, therefore, large antennas. ESTAR is an L-band, aircraft built as part of research to develop this technique ESTAR is a hybrid real-and-synthetic aperture radiometer which employs stick antennas to achieve resolution along track and uses aperture synthesis to achieve resolution across track. Experiments to validate the instrument's ability to measure soil moisture have recently been conducted at the USDA watersheds at Walnut Gulch in Arizona and the Little Washita River in Oklahoma. The results of both experiments indicate that a valid image reconstruction and calibration have been obtained for this remote sensing technique
