    • 摘要: 有源相控阵天线是机载火控雷达重要组成部分,其阵面由多个T/R组件组成。在当前工程实践中常基于单个T/R组件的故障率使用表决模型开展有源相控阵天线的可靠性评估工作。然而基于表决模型的可靠性评估方法无法直接反映有源相控阵天线阵面的性能不确定性及性能退化过程。为了解决上述问题,本文基于可靠性科学原理,引入确信可靠性理论开展机载火控雷达有源相控阵天线可靠性分析工作。首先,识别有源相控阵天线的关键性能参数建立性能裕量方程。其次,分析有源相控阵天线的退化过程,使用仿真方法计算其性能并对其中的不确定性进行量化。最后,建立确信可靠性评估模型,并使用蒙特卡洛方法计算其可靠性。计算结果展示了有源相控阵天线阵面退化过程及可靠性水平,证明了上述方法的有效性和实用性。

       

      Abstract: The Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) antenna is a critical component of an airborne fire-control radar, with its array face composed of numerous Transmit/Receive (T/R) modules. In current engineering practice, the reliability evaluation of AESA antennas is commonly conducted using a voting model based on the failure rate of individual T/R modules. However, this reliability evaluation method, which relies on a voting model, cannot directly account for the performance uncertainty and degradation processes of the AESA antenna array. To address these issues, this paper employs the principles of reliability science and introduces Belief Reliability theory to perform a reliability analysis of the airborne fire-control radar's AESA antenna. First, key performance parameters of the AESA antenna are identified to establish a performance margin equation. Second, the degradation process of the AESA antenna is analyzed, and simulation methods are used to calculate its performance while quantifying the associated uncertainties. Finally, a Belief Reliability evaluation model is established, and the Monte Carlo method is employed to calculate its reliability. The results illustrate the degradation process and reliability level of the AESA antenna array, thereby demonstrating the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed method.
