In this paper, a hybrid differential evolution and weight total least squares method (HDE-WTLSM) is proposed for antenna array pattern synthesis. A variable diagonal weight matrix is introduced in total least squares method. Then, the weight matrix is optimized by differential evolution (DE) algorithm to control the differences of the desired level and the obtained level in different directions. This algorithm combines the advantages of evolutionary algorithm and numerical algorithm, so it has a wider application range and faster convergence speed. To compare HDE-WTLSM with DE algorithm and typical numerical algorithms, these methods are applied to a linear antenna array and a conformal truncated conical array. Using our method, lower sidelobe levels and deeper nulls are obtained. The simulation results verify the validity and efficiently of HDE-WTLSM.
In this paper, an analytic method for frequency invariant (FI) array synthesis is proposed based on matrix singular value decomposition. By grouping the elements of FI array into a few subarrays, the FI pattern in the whole frequency band is realized. Using this algorithm, the number of sub arrays is reduced. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can synthesize the 64-element broadband FI array in 0.52 s. For the 18-element linear array, the half power beam width (HPBW) changes less than 0.6 degrees in the bandwidth. Moreover, the range of HPBW variation decreases rapidly along with the increase in the number of elements. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by synthesizing FI array with low side lobe level (SLL), beam scanning, and notch requirements. The examples in this paper show that the proposed algorithm can achieve better pattern characteristics with fewer elements. Finally, a broadband antenna with 2:1 bandwidth is improved, and two FI arrays of 23 elements and 64 elements are formed by using the antenna. The active pattern of the array element is introduced into the proposed algorithm, and two FI arrays synthesized by the algorithm are simulated by full wave software.
In this paper, a multi-strategy routing protocol, reactive-greedy-face (RGF), is proposed based on the advantages of reactive forwarding, greedy forwarding, and projected face forwarding strategies. This protocol improves and unites the strategies through a reasonable selection and switching mechanism to make up for the deficiencies of the existing three-dimensional routing protocols in the flight self-assembly network and improve the rapid recovery of packet forwarding after topology changes. The simulation validation shows that this routing protocol can be used to recover packets after a topology change. Simulation verification indicates that the routing protocol significantly improves the packet delivery rate and the average end-to-end delay performance, and can better adapt to the flight self-assembly network’s three-dimensional high-dynamic and low-density characteristics.
The optical fiber communication network is featured by strong anti-interference, good signal quality and other advantages. However, there are many equipment for the conversion of photoelectric signal is widely used in optical fiber communication network. When they are subjected to intentional electromagnetic interference radiation, it will affect their work, and even damage to the equipment, endangering the security of the entire communication network. In this paper, we selected fiber converter as the equipment under test, and selected high power microwave generation system as a source of interference to study the anti-interference of the converter under the high power microwave pulse interference. We find out the threshold interval when the converter's work affected under the L-band electromagnetic pulse interference by the experiment, and when the converter is installed inside the shielded cabinet can improve the anti-interference ability of the converter.
