Design of lightweight, broad-band microwave absorbers using genetic algorithms

Abstract

A procedure for synthesizing multilayered radar absorbing coatings is presented. Given a predefined set of N/sub m/ available materials with frequency-dependent permittivities in /sub i/(f) and permeabilities mu /sub i/(f) (i=1,. . ., N/sub m/), the technique determines simultaneously the optimal material choice for each layer and its thickness. This optimal choice results in a screen which maximally absorbs TM and TE incident plane waves for a prescribed range of frequencies (f/sub 1/,f/sub 2/,. . ., f/sub N/f) and incident angles ( theta /sub 1/, theta /sub 2/,. . ., theta /sub N theta /). The synthesis technique is based on a genetic algorithm. The technique automatically places an upper bound on the total thickness of the coating, as well as the number of layers contained in it, which greatly simplifies manufacturing. In addition, the thickness or surface mass of the coating can be minimized simultaneously with the reflection coefficient. The algorithm was successfully applied to the synthesis of wideband absorbing coatings in the frequency ranges of 0.2-2 GHz and 2-8 GHz.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
