Neural networks for EMC modeling of small airplanes

Abstract

This thesis deals with neural modeling of electromagnetic field inside small aircrafts, witch can contain composite materials in their construction. Introduction to neural networks and its application in EMC of small airplanes is discussed in the first part of the text. In the second part of this thesis we design a simple EM model of small airplane. The airplane is simulated by two parallel dielectric layers (the left-hand side wall and the right hand side wall of the airplane). The layers are put into a rectangular metallic waveguide terminated by the absorber in order to simulate the illumination of the airplane by the external wave (both of the harmonic nature and pulse one). Numerical analyses are performed to search the relations between the distribution of an electromagnetic field inside the aircraft and electric parameters of model walls. The results of numerical analyses are used to train two types of neural network. In this way we can obtain accurate continuous model of electromagnetic field inside the aircraft. For the comparison with neural networks a multi-dimensional cubic spline interpolation is provided also. Neural classifiers are also investigated. We use them for classification of imaginary composite materials in terms of EMC. The nearest neighbour algorithm is applied as a classic approach to problem of classification
