摘要
A two-step technique for the analysis of axisymmetric radomes is presented in this paper. Initially, an axisymmetric finite element approach is employed, together with an absorbing boundary condition for mesh truncation, to determine the near fields scattered by an empty radome illuminated by a distant source. Next, the reciprocity theorem is invoked to determine the far-field pattern of an antenna encased by the radome, by computing the reaction between the current distribution on the antenna and the near-field data determined in the first step. The details of the formulation are presented along with numerical results for two different arrays enclosed by radomes of varying permittivities.
