Abstract:

The internal space of radio fuzes is limited, making it difficult to measure the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (SE) of their cavity through experiments. To analyze the SE of the radio fuze cavity under the circumstance of a strong electromagnetic pulse, a calculation method on electromagnetic topology theory and Baum-Liu-Tesche (BLT) equation is proposed in this paper. This method establishes the cavity propagation matrix by analyzing the energy flow characteristics, calculates the cavity scattering matrix by using the equivalent circuit model, deduces the extended BLT equation of energy transmission in the cavity, and then obtains the voltage value of each topological node. The effectiveness of this method is verified using CST software. The SE of various models, including the rectangular antenna window model, circular antenna window model, double-sided circular hole model, and dielectric substrate model, is calculated. The calculation results are analyzed quantitatively using the correlation coefficient, and the results show that the calculation accuracy of the proposed method is better than that of the equivalent circuit method. The needed calculation memory is lower than that of the CST software. This method can be used to analyze the SE of fuzes with cylindrical cavities.
