The present invention belongs to the field of electromagnetic value computing, and particularly relates to a rapid and accurate
analysis method for large-scale
MIMO array antenna far-field
radiation. The method comprises: determining a structural parameter of an M*N-element plane array antenna; computing a relationship between an
incident field and a scattered field of an element antenna; according to mutual
coupling characteristics among element antennas, selecting a sub-array form and size of an extraction unit on an array environment condition; for an antenna sub-array of the extraction unit, computing a unit far-field
radiation pattern of the sub-array; and according to the unit far-field
radiation patterns of the array and a
superposition principle, computing an array antenna far-field
radiation pattern. According to the invention, by utilizing the accuracy of mutual
coupling computation, the problems that the use of such methods as the moment method, the
finite element method and the finite difference
time domain (FDTD) method are limited by computing capacity of a single computer, and when the scale of the array antenna is too large, rapid and accurate computation of the
antenna radiation field cannot be implemented with a
full wave simulation method because of large consumption of memory and computing time, are effectively solved. The method provided by the invention is capable of analyzing the
radiation pattern of a large and conformal array antenna, and has higher synthesizing accuracy and higher analysis speed.
