Abstract

The scattering problems from electromagnetic absorbers can be greatly simplified using the transmission line approximations (TLA) and effective medium theory. This method has been widely used for the absorber design because of its very simple calculation and intuitional approach, while numerical analysis needs the tremendous computation requirements, This paper examined the accuracy and limitations originated by the intrinsic approximation limits of TLA by comparison with FEM results for various absorber design examples. It was found that the TLA result is valid when λ $\geq$ 2p, where λ is the wavelength of the interested upper frequency and p is the distance between two periodic cone arrays. Therefore, the electromagnetic absorbers having high material properties and big base-area commonly do not meet this condition, and the electromagnetic scattering from those absorbers must be evaluated by the numerical analysis in those cases.

전파흡수체의 전자파산란 문제는 전송선로 근사방법과 유효매질 이론을 적용하여 매우 간단하게 표현할 수 있다. 이러한 방법은 전자장 수치해석 방법이 엄청난 계산이 필요한 것에 비해 매우 직관적이고, 간단하므로 전파흡수체 설계에 널리 사용되어져 왔다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 방법 자체가 가지는 근사의 한계 때문에 발생하는 적용한계를 유한요소법을 이용하여 검토하였다. 전송선로 근사방법은 λ 2p인 영역(여기에서, p는 전파흡수체의 배열주기, λ는 관심주파수 상한에서의 파장)에서 유효하다. 따라서 높은 물성을 갖거나 물리적 크기가 큰 구조의 전파흡수체는 흔히 이러한 조건을 만족치 않으며, 전자파 산란을 직접 수치해석적으로 계산해야 한다.
