We report the design simulation of the Raman spectrometer using Zemax optical system design software. The design is based on the Czerny–Turner configuration, which includes an optical system consisting of an entrance slit, two concave mirrors, reflecting type diffraction grating and an image detector. The system’s modeling approach is suggested by introducing the corresponding relationship between detector pixels and wavelength, linear CCD receiving surface length and image surface dimension. The simulations were carried out using the POP (physical optics propagation) algorithm. Spot diagram, relative illumination, irradiance plot, modulation transfer function (MTF), geometric and encircled energy were simulated for designing the Raman spectrometer. The simulation results of the Raman spectrometer using a 527 nm wavelength laser as an excitation light source are presented. The present optical system was designed in sequential mode and a Raman spectrum was observed from 530 nm to 630 nm. The analysis shows that the system’s image efficiency was quite good, predicting that it could build an efficient and cost-effective Raman spectrometer for optical diagnostics.

Abstract In the terahertz band, the dispersive characteristic of dielectric material is one of the major problems in the scaled radar cross section (RCS) measurement, which is inconsistent with the electrodynamics similitude deducted according to the Maxwell’s equations. Based on the high-frequency estimation method of physical optics (PO), a scaled RCS measurement method for lossy objects is proposed through dynamically matching the reflection coefficients according to the distribution of the object’s facets. Simulations on the model of SLICY were conducted, the inversed RCS of the lossy prototype was obtained using the proposed method. Via comparing the inversed RCS with the calculated results, the validity of the proposed method is demonstrated. The proposed method provides an effective solution to the scaled RCS measurement for lossy objects in the THz band.

An automotive radar simulator is proposed that can consider a dynamic driving scenario. The impulse response is computed based on the distance between the radar and the mesh position and the radar equation. The first-order physical optics technique is used to calculate the backscattering by the meshes, which can efficiently consider the shape of the target; however, because the radar operating frequency is very high, the required amount of mesh for discretization is large. Hence, the calculation of the time-domain echo signal requires considerable computational time. To reduce this numerical complexity, a new scheme is proposed to accurately approximate the time-domain baseband signal generated by the large number of meshes. The radar adopts the frequency modulated continuous waveform. Range-Doppler processing is used to estimate the range and relative velocity of the targets based on which simulation results are numerically verified for a driving scenario.

Introduction. Computer-aided design systems for microwave devices are an effective tool for assessing the backscattering characteristics of complex-shaped objects. However, these calculations are often associated with significant computational costs, especially at large values of the ratio of the characteristic dimensions of the object to the wavelength. The use of asymptotic methods in combination with the mesh coarsening of object partition can significantly reduce these costs. However, in each practical case, this leads to a deterioration in the accuracy of the estimates obtained, which is hard to predict.Aim. Comparative assessment of the results of modeling the scattering field in the CAD of microwave devices using various methods for calculating and detailing the object model in the decimeter and centimeter wavelength ranges.Materials and methods. The research object was an anti-tank guided missile FGM-148 Javelin. The scattering field of Altair FEKO microwave devices was modeled in CAD using the methods of moments and physical optics in the frequency range from 1 to 10 GHz and angles from 0 to 180°. A comparison of one-dimensional backscatter diagrams and radar images obtained using these methods was carried out.Results. For the class of objects under consideration, the method of physical optics provides acceptable accuracy at frequencies of 5 GHz and higher with a step of partitioning the model surface of the order of one centimeter and a total calculation duration of the order of several minutes (Intel Core i5-4460 PC / 3.2 GHz / 8 MB RAM). At lower frequencies, acceptable accuracy and a similar calculation duration are achieved when calculating by the method of moments and a partitioning step of about 20 cm. The possibility of using the Altair FEKO CAD system for modeling radar images of objects with a resolution of at least 20 cm is demonstrated.Conclusion. The results obtained complement the well-known studies in the field of comparative assessment of the time and accuracy characteristics of various methods for calculating the scattering field of objects in the CAD of microwave devices.
