THE METHOD for OPTIMIZATION OF CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES SCATTERING ON AN OBJECT OF COMPLEX SHAPE
In this paper we consider the problem associated with the simulation of electromagnetic wave scattering on a metal object that has a complex shape. The method of integral equations is used to calculate the scattering characteristics. Fredholm equation of the second kind was chosen, based on the density of an unknown electric current. When the integral equation was solved using the method of moments, the correct description of the kernel singularity was given. Piecewise constant functions were considered as basis functions. Dirac functions were taken as trial functions. The solution of the chosen integral equation was carried out using the method of moments. Based on the Kirchhoff integral, the determination of the scattered electromagnetic field is carried out, it has a connection with the found electric currents. The regularities of electromagnetic wave scattering were studied for the region of the anterior hemisphere of the aperture of the hollow structure that is part of the object. In order to optimize the characteristics of the considered diffraction structures, a genetic algorithm was used. The demonstration of solutions of such algorithm is given. The table of probability of chromosome selection is given. We applied the population, which consisted of four chromosomes. The process of selecting chromosomes was carried out on the basis of the roulette wheel method. The results of optimization of the size of the analyzed diffraction structure are given. The main stages of the method for calculation of diffraction structures, which is associated with a combination of the method of integral equations and genetic algorithm.
