Description
Summary:In a multi-point source system, increasing the jamming power can expand the distribution area of the equivalent radiation center, but significantly increases the system exposure risk. Therefore, in order to achieve an optimal balance between the two, this paper proposes a joint optimization method for jamming power and an array of multi-point source systems. First, based on determining the spatial geometric relationship between the triplet antenna and the target, the distribution law of the equivalent radiation center of the triplet antenna under the condition of the target echo is derived. Second, by introducing the angle factor, the jamming power and equivalent radiation center distribution area are combined to construct the joint optimization model of jamming power and array in omnidirectional and non-omnidirectional situations. Third, based on the non-dominated sorting whale optimization algorithm (NSWOA), an adaptive inertia weight based on the cosine function and logistic chaotic map is introduced to obtain the optimal arrangement. The experimental results show that in the omnidirectional case, when the average jamming-to-signal ratio is 13.83 dB, the equilateral triangle array can achieve the goal of protecting the target while avoiding the exposure of the triplet antenna position. In the non-omnidirectional case, when the average jamming-to-signal ratio is 13.90 dB, the equilateral triangle array can achieve the optimal balance between the jamming power and the area of the distribution area of the equivalent radiation center, and control the distribution of the equivalent radiation center to strictly meet the preset angular domain constraints. Furthermore, the optimal JSR value was reduced by an average of 1.14 dB compared with that of the conventional selection scheme.
