研究目的
Investigating how coupling between a pair of closely situated targets affects the resulting micro-Doppler signatures.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that coupling between closely situated targets affects the resulting micro-Doppler signatures, producing new frequencies in the spectrum of the scattered field. This effect can be used to extract information about the internal geometry of the system from far-field measurements, providing valuable insight for radar and sonar systems, as well as optical and stellar radio-interferometry.
研究不足
The study focuses on the low frequency regime where the overall size of a target is comparable or smaller than the impinging wavelength. The implications for higher frequencies and more complex targets are not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a theoretical model and experimental setup to investigate the effect of near-field coupling on micro-Doppler signatures. The model considers a pair of near-field coupled resonators with dynamically reconfigurable scattering properties.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two split ring resonators (SRRs) with varactor diodes are used as samples. The SRRs are placed in the near-field of each other, representing a system with two independent degrees of freedom.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The experimental setup includes SRRs, varactor diodes, a horn antenna, a spectrum analyzer (PNA-L, Keysight), and a positioning mechanism for controlling the distance between the SRRs.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The resonant frequency of each SRR is modulated in time by controlling the voltage drop on its varactor diode. The setup is illuminated by a 2.88 GHz carrier, and the backscattered field is processed with a spectrum analyzer.
5:88 GHz carrier, and the backscattered field is processed with a spectrum analyzer.
Data Analysis Methods:
5. Data Analysis Methods: The scattered field is analyzed to observe coupled micro-Doppler combs, which contain frequency components arising from near-field interactions.
