description | The basis of plasma stealth technology is the attenuation of electromagnetic waves by plasma. In this study, the calculation principle of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is introduced and a FDTD time–space coupling model of electromagnetic wave propagation in plasma is established. The time-domain variation characteristics of electromagnetic waves entering the plasma are analyzed. The plasma parameter distribution under different conditions obtained using the COMSOL fluid mechanics model is introduced into the FDTD model. The plasma reflectivity measurement experiment was carried out in a microwave anechoic chamber, and the influence of different experimental conditions on the plasma reflectivity was analyzed. The variation of reflectivity under different plasma parameter distributions is obtained. The results show that increasing electron density and plasma thickness and enhanced plasma distribution uniformity are beneficial for improving the attenuation effect of plasma on electromagnetic waves. These results provide a reference for the inductively coupled plasma parameter distribution in a closed quartz cavity, which provides a basis for the plasma to attenuate the electromagnetic waves. |
