Abstract

Absorbents are used in RCS reduction to prevent reflection of the wave and not interfere with the test wave.By reducing the amount of reflection in a wave using materials used in adsorbents, they reduce the reflection.The things that are to be considered in relation to these reflections are the effects of these waves, which are termed ”pure environmental reflections“, the error caused by not considering the pure reflections of the environment and other problems caused by weaknesses. The main wave of the note is noteworthy. In this research, the optimum thickness of adsorbent material has been determined using genetic and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms with the aim of determining the minimum amount of electromagnetic wave reflection. The genetic algorithm is used to adjust the plate resistance values as well as the PSO algorithm to determine the optimal screen thickness. The results show that determination of microwave absorption coating parameters has a significant effect on the absorption rate of the wave. The applied method provides the conditions for achieving optimal coverage.
