This circuit model is used to dimension and optimize the structure with a minimum computational burden. The final design involves a meta-surface on top of the radiating aperture, together with a substrate made from an artificial anisotropic dielectric. This multilayer achieves a reflection coefficient |S11|<-10dB over a 5:1 bandwidth ratio for incidences as high as 60° in both TE and TM polarizations.

Une campagne de validation par la mesure a été conduite dans le cadre du projet, dont nous présentons quelques résultats.

Research paper thumbnail of Domain decomposition method by integral equations for studying electromagnetic diffraction from large metallic structures

HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe), Jul 1, 2014

The objective is to use multi-domain modelling to process multi-scale structures. This method is flexible thanks to an independance between sub-domains and relying on the local resolution of these sub-domains. Moreover, the convergence is improved compared to a classical resolution. This method is achieved for predicting radar cross-sections, studying antennas radiation and EMC applications.

They are generally connected to the radiating elements through isolators, designed to reduce the influence of the surroundings on the amplifiers load. Load-pull effects may indeed affect the transfer characteristics of HP As and even destroy them above excessive

In this paper, the design and performances of such ultrawideband microwave absorber of low thickness material developed within the framework of the SAFAS project (self-complementary surface with low signature) are confirmed with complementary quasi monostatic measurements and finite array simulations using Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting domain decomposition methods (FETI).

The objective is to propose a methodology to insure good performances of direction finding by limiting as much as possible the effects of coupling. The context is Electronic Support Measures (ESM), and we consider a large interferometer array in order to obtain a high precision goniometry of emitters on the ground. The goal of the methodology is to define the geometry of the interferometer - the position of the antennas - that limits as much as possible the effects of electromagnetic coupling.

These tools should combine the electromagnetic modeling of passive components with an appropriate description of nonlinearities potentially induced by the active circuitry. An iterative approach is proposed here for the simulation of transmitting arrays, including power amplifiers, taking into account distortion and varying antenna loads induced by coupling
