First embodiment, the present embodiment provides a high emissivity microwave blackbody source having a cavity.

A high emissivity microwave blackbody source having a cavity, comprising: the cavity comprises a cavity, a first calibration box 1, a second calibration box 2, a third calibration box 3, a fourth calibration box 4 and a fifth calibration box 5, wherein an opening of the second calibration box 2, an opening of the third calibration box 3, an opening of the fourth calibration box 4 and an opening of the fifth calibration box 5 face the cavity, and a plurality of pyramids 6 are arranged in the first calibration box 1, the second calibration box 2, the third calibration box 3, the fourth calibration box 4 and the fifth calibration box 5; when the calibration test is carried out, the bright temperature signals radiated by the microwave blackbody source reach an antenna feed source arranged in the cavity, the antenna feed source obtains different output values according to the different bright temperature signals, and the calibration coefficient is measured based on the different output values for calibration.

The blackbody emissivity can reach 99.99 percent at a plurality of frequency points of 35-40GHz, and can reach-40 dB, so that the blackbody emissivity can be regarded as an ideal calibration source, and calibration can be carried out in the frequency range.

Meanwhile, when calibration is considered, a certain environment exists around the temperature T_eThe black body is manufactured into a cross-shaped calibration source with a cavity, the calibration source is an open cuboid calibration aluminum box of 60 multiplied by 30CM, aluminum plates 7 for fixing four cube (30 multiplied by 30CM) calibration aluminum boxes are arranged on two sides of a short side of the cuboid 30CM and in the middle of a long side of the cuboid 60CM (at a distance of 15CM on the left and 15CM on the right), the four calibration boxes are fixed on the aluminum plates 7 through screw nuts, and a 30 multiplied by 30CM foam pyramid whole is arranged in each cube calibration box (due to good flexibility of foam, the four calibration boxes can be tightly attached to four walls of the calibration boxes, and the condition that the foam pyramid cannot be placed due to the fact that the size of the foam is the same as that of the calibration boxes does not existThe phenomenon of entering a box), each foam pyramid is integrally formed by a single foam pyramid of 3X 3 and 10X 30CM, the pyramid takes high-performance foam plastics as a carrier and is flame-retardant, and the maximum service temperature is 80 ℃. As shown in fig. 1-3.

The wave-absorbing material is fixed in the calibration box, and every calibration box all is independent detachable, is convenient for install and replace and inhale the angle cone (selecting the wave-absorbing material of different sizes according to required frequency channel difference), when carrying out the calibration test, needs aim at the antenna feed with the calibration source. Adopt single foam pyramid calibration source to carry out the calibration, the bright temperature of environment radiation can cause the influence, and because the environment is unstable, the bright temperature of radiation can't be eliminated, lead to the calibration coefficient inaccurate, influence the result of calibration, consequently, make into a cross calibration source that has a cavity with the blackbody, the feed can directly be enclosed to the cavity, through the test, compare single foam cone calibration source and can effectively reduce 4 dB's reflectivity on average at this frequency channel, consequently, can reduce the bright temperature's of environment radiation influence effectively, aim at the antenna feed with middle cavity and test.

This embodiment can be pertinence solution problem, the blackbody source has higher emissivity and is made the cost of manufacture lower by the foam pyramid, and can select different ripples foam pyramids of inhaling according to the demand of different frequency channels, and can freely select the shape of calibration source, make into a cross calibration source that has a cavity with the blackbody, the feed can directly be enclosed to the cavity, through the test, compare single foam cone calibration source and can effectively reduce 4 dB's reflectivity on average at this frequency channel, consequently, can reduce the influence of ambient radiation bright temperature effectively, improve the emissivity of blackbody radiation source.

In a second embodiment, the present embodiment provides a calibration test method.

When the calibration test is carried out, the cavity of the high-emissivity microwave blackbody source with the cavity is adopted to align an antenna feed source, the bright temperature signal radiated by the microwave blackbody source reaches the antenna feed source arranged in the cavity, the antenna feed source obtains different output values according to different bright temperature signals, and the calibration coefficient is measured based on different output values to carry out calibration.

In order to determine the correspondence between the data measured by the system and the input radiated light temperature, the system must be calibrated. Commonly used calibration methods are: scaling at the receiver input port and scaling at the antenna port. The precise absolute calibration method of the blackbody calibration source is adopted in the calibration of the antenna aperture surface. Aiming at a normal temperature blackbody calibration source through an antenna, obtaining two different radiation brightness temperatures T according to different radiation brightness temperatures of the blackbody calibration source at different room temperatures₁And T₂Corresponding system output reading V₁And V₂Then, the scaling equation and the coefficients a and b can be obtained as:

T_A＝a+bV_A (1)

the above is the principle of calibration, and when the calibration coefficient is determined, the numerical value output by the system can correspond to the corresponding radiant brightness temperature. It follows that the blackbody radiation source determines the accuracy of the scaling factor.

In this embodiment, a new method for manufacturing a black body with high emissivity by using a foam pyramid as a substrate is adopted. Firstly, a plurality of wave-absorbing materials are tested and screened, the wave-absorbing materials are placed in a calibration box, one antenna horn transmits signals, and the other antenna horn receives signals.

5 cm-thick flat wave-absorbing materials (one is 5cm), 10 cm-thick flat wave-absorbing materials and pyramid wave-absorbing materials with various sizes are tested, a group of foam pyramids (300 multiplied by 300mm) with moderate sizes and suitable reflectivity are selected, and the test effect is shown in figure 4.

Through tests, compared with a single foam cone calibration source, the frequency band can effectively reduce the reflectivity by 4dB on average, so that the influence of the ambient radiation brightness temperature can be effectively reduced, the middle cavity is aligned to the antenna feed source for testing, and the test result is shown in fig. 5.

In conclusion, the reflectivity of the whole blackbody source is generally below-30 dB in a frequency band required by 35-40GHz, the cross-shaped calibration source with one cavity is designed to have better effect than a single calibration box, the reflectivity is obviously reduced at a plurality of frequencies, and a plurality of frequency points can reach-40 dB, so that the requirement of a blackbody radiation source with high emissivity is met.
