Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of novel artificial electromagnetic materials, relates to an electromagnetic super surface, and particularly relates to an optical transparent electromagnetic super surface for reducing broadband and wide-angle RCS.
Background
The continuous development of modern radar detection technology poses a severe threat to low-scattering platforms. The existing scattering suppression technology comprises appearance design and coating of radar absorbing materials. The suppression of scattering by the shape technology usually changes the original morphological characteristics of the platform to destroy the aerodynamic performance, and has the defects of narrow scattering bandwidth, poor angular stability and the like. The radar absorbing material can effectively reduce the scattering intensity, but the application scenes are limited due to various factors such as volume, weight and the like. Furthermore, for scenes with both optically transparent or visually observable and scatter suppression requirements, it is difficult to meet their compatibility requirements with existing scatter suppression technologies.
The artificial electromagnetic material is formed by periodically arranging artificial electromagnetic structures with sub-wavelengths, can flexibly regulate and control the amplitude, phase, polarization and other characteristics of electromagnetic waves, and has application potential in the aspect of scattering inhibition. The electromagnetic super surface belongs to a two-dimensional representation form of an artificial electromagnetic material and is formed by two-dimensional arrangement of super surface units. The electromagnetic super-surface has the advantages of low profile, simple structure, easy processing and the like, and is widely applied to various fields such as antennas, microwave and terahertz devices, optoelectronic devices and the like.
With the continuous and intensive research on the electromagnetic super-surface, various super-surface structures such as a polarization conversion super-surface, a phase gradient super-surface, a frequency selection super-surface, a metamaterial absorber and the like are provided aiming at RCS reduction, and the remarkable RCS reduction effect is realized. In 2018, Yajiang Zhuang et al published a paper named Low-scattering tri-band metrology using combination of dispersion adsorption and compensation in the IEEE Access journal, and the paper realizes effective RCS reduction effect by performing combined design on super-surface structures with different functions working in different frequency bands, but the super-surface needs to design two super-surface units working in different frequency bands, and the working mechanisms of the units in the super-surface are independent. In addition, because the super surface adopts a sandwich structure of metal-medium-metal, the super surface is optically non-transparent and is not suitable for scenes needing optical transparency or visual observation requirements.
Aiming at the scenes such as the window position of a low-scattering platform and the like which need to take optical transparency and low-scattering characteristics into consideration, the design of the electromagnetic super-surface with high optical transparency and good RCS reduction performance is of great significance.

The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:
the optical transparent electromagnetic super-surface can convert incident electromagnetic waves into cross polarized waves by utilizing a polarization conversion principle, the working bandwidth of the optical transparent electromagnetic super-surface is expanded by a structure nesting method, the super-surface module rotates clockwise along the center of a structure, the reflection phase inversion of adjacent modules can be realized, and scattered beams can be redirected to the directions of four corners according to a phase cancellation principle; meanwhile, the ITO thin film material with a specific resistance value is adopted to replace the traditional metal material, ohmic loss is introduced to realize the conversion from electromagnetic energy to heat energy, the effective absorption of incident electromagnetic waves can be realized in a specific frequency range, the echo energy in a threat angle range is reduced, and the purpose of RCS reduction is achieved; in addition, because the floor also adopts the ITO film, and the medium substrate adopts the PET material with optical transparency, the super surface has high optical transparency as a whole, and the super surface can be applied to scenes which need optical transparency or perspective observation and RCS reduction at the same time.
The specific principle of the design of the mixing mechanism of the optically transparent electromagnetic super-surface of the embodiment is as follows:
the mixing mechanism of the optical transparent electromagnetic super-surface of the embodiment is mainly analyzed by two parts, namely a wave-absorbing principle and a polarization conversion principle:
according to the wave absorption principle analysis, the absorptivity of the super-surface unit can be expressed as:
wherein
And
co-polarized and cross-polarized reflection coefficients and transmission coefficients, respectively. Since the reflective plate employs the ITO film with low impedance, the electromagnetic wave is almost totally reflected, the transmission coefficients of the two polarizations can be approximated to 0, and the absorption rate of the super-surface unit can be defined as:
according to the polarization Conversion principle, Conversion is defined as the ratio of polarization Conversion of incident waves into cross-polarized waves, which is expressed as:
considering both the absorbed and converted electromagnetic energy, the absorption conversion ACR of a super-surface unit can be defined as:
as can be seen from the formula (4), for the super-surface unit of this embodiment, the absorption conversion rate is composed of two parts, one part is from the wave-absorbing effect of the wave-absorbing principle, and the other part is from the conversion effect of the polarization conversion principle, which indicates that the super-surface unit realizes the mixing of the two mechanisms.
The technical effects of the invention are further explained by combining simulation experiments as follows:
simulation software: full-wave simulation software HFSS — 15.0.
Simulation content and results:
As can be seen from FIG. 5(a), the super surface unit of this embodiment has a transmission coefficient of less than-25 dB in the frequency range of 6GHz-34GHz, because the lowest layer employs an ITO film with low impedance, and the electromagnetic wave is almost totally reflected. And in the frequency range of 7.44GHz-31.31GHz, the co-polarization reflection coefficient is less than-10 dB, and the cross-polarization reflection coefficient is not close to 0. It follows that the incident electromagnetic wave energy is divided into three components, reflected waves, absorbed waves and converted into cross-polarized waves.
As can be seen from fig. 5(b), the absorption conversion rate ACR of the super-surface unit in this embodiment is greater than 90% in the frequency range where the co-polarization reflection coefficient is less than-10 dB, so that the super-surface unit has a higher polarization conversion rate in the frequency range where the wave absorption rate is lower and a higher wave absorption rate in the frequency range where the polarization conversion rate is lower, and the electromagnetic wave regulation performance is significantly improved due to the synergistic effect of the two mechanisms.
As can be seen from FIG. 6(a), the polarization conversion rate of the super-surface unit in this embodiment is greater than 0.8 in the frequency ranges of 8-16GHz, 20.5-24GHz and 26.5-30.5GHz, and represents the ratio of the incident wave converted into its cross-polarized wave to the residual energy not containing absorbed and dissipated part of the energy.
As can be seen from FIG. 6(b), the reflection phase difference of the super-surface unit of the present embodiment and the mirror super-surface unit after the super-surface unit rotates 90 degrees from its central symmetry is within 180 + -37 deg. in the frequency ranges of 7-23GHz and 28-30.5GHz, so that the phase cancellation of the scattered waves can be realized, and the scattering peak in the threat angle range is reduced.
As can be seen from fig. 7(a) and (b), in the range of 0 ° to 45 °, the wave-absorbing conversion rate is greater than 80% (in the case of TM wave incidence, it exceeds 90%), and although the wave-absorbing conversion rate is reduced at approximately 60 °, a significant absorbing conversion effect is still exhibited, indicating that the super-surface unit of the present embodiment has a high incident angle stability.
As can be seen from FIGS. 8(a) and (b), the super-surface of the present embodiment achieves a broadband RCS reduction effect for both TE and TM waves at different incident angles, and achieves an RCS reduction effect of more than 10dB in the 7.47-30.06GHz band for normal incidence. Fig. 8(a) shows the TE wave incident condition, and fig. 8(b) shows the TM wave incident condition.
Simulation 7, selecting 5 frequency points such as 9GHz, 14GHz, 19GHz, 24GHz, 29GHz and the like under the TE wave vertical incidence condition, and performing simulation calculation on the three-dimensional scattering directional diagrams of the super surface and the metal plate with the same size in the embodiment, where the results are shown in fig. 9(a) and fig. 9(b), where fig. 9(a) is the scattering directional diagram of the super surface in the embodiment, and fig. 9(b) is the scattering directional diagram of the metal plate with the same size.
As can be seen from fig. 9(a), (b), compared with the metal plate, due to the clockwise arrangement of the super-surface modules, a reflected wave phase difference of 180 ± 37 ° is introduced between adjacent modules, so that the three-dimensional scattering pattern of the super-surface of the present embodiment is in a four-beam shape, and at the same time, the intensity of the reflected wave is lower than that of the reflected wave of the metal plate, because part of the energy is absorbed by the super-surface of the present embodiment, thereby also proving the correctness and effectiveness of the mixing mechanism of the super-surface of the present embodiment.
