Title: Analysis and Design of Lightweight, High-Efficiency, and Circularly Polarized Antennas for Satellite Platforms

Abstract: In this report, a lightweight and efficient circularly polarized all metal antenna design method suitable for satellite industrial applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a rectangular waveguide, which includes a high-order mode cavity, a feed, a high-order mode cavity, and a metasurface circular polarizer (MCP). The cavity higher-order mode TE440 is directly emitted from four coupling slots in the waveguide. MCP is placed on the cavity to generate circularly polarized (CP) radiation. Due to the introduction of high-order mode technology and MCP, all metal walls inside the antenna can be removed, significantly reducing weight. In order to reflect the weight advantage, traditional metal wall loaded waveguide antennas with the same size were designed. The test results indicate that the antenna has a wider impedance and axial bandwidth, as well as higher radiation efficiency. Especially, the proposed antenna is 40% lighter than the comparative antenna, indicating that it is more suitable for satellite platforms with limited payload capacity.

Title: Research on Intelligent Cooperation Theory of Unmanned Aerial Vehicular Swarms Based on Digital Twins

Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm networking and collaboration have significant prospects in both civilian and military applications, due to its remarkable properties in cooperative efficiency, reduced risks, and operational cost. In recent years, breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies such as deep reinforcement learning have provided new methods for intelligent cooperative control of swarms. However, how to improve the training efficiency in a high-fidelity manner has become a key bottleneck in applying deep reinforcement learning to intelligent cooperative control of swarms. In order to break through this bottleneck, we propose a new approach to achieve intelligent cooperative control of swarms through multi-agent deep reinforcement learning based on building a digital twin (DT) system of swarms. Our contributions consist of the following aspects: (1) We proposed a DT based training method of deep reinforcement learning for the intelligent cooperation decision model of UAV swarms. Our method realizes the continuous evolution of the decision model; (2) We proposed a new method for cooperative trajectory planning based on digital twins and deep reinforcement learning to realize the dynamic optimization of the decision model under multiple constraints; (3) We proposed a linear fusion method for UAV detection information and establish a scalable deep reinforcement learning decision-making model for the cooperative electronic reconnaissance problem.
