Abstract:To study the effect of soot aerosol particles on the performance of quantum interference radar, based on the optical properties of soot aerosol particles, the relationship between the particle number concentration and relative humidity and link attenuation is investigated respectively, and then the effect of soot aerosol particles on the detection distance of quantum interference radar is analyzed; in view of the detection principle and the structure of the quantum interference radar, the effect of soot aerosol particles on the survival performance, resolution and sensitivity of the quantum interference radar is discussed and numerically simulated. The effect of soot aerosol particles on the survival performance, resolution and sensitivity of quantum interference radar is discussed and numerically simulated. The results show that: with the increase of soot aerosol particle concentration and the decrease of relative humidity, the detection distance and survival performance of the quantum interference radar show a gradual decrease; ignoring other influencing factors, increasing the number of photons, the resolution tends to increase, and the sensitivity is improved when the attenuation caused by soot aerosol particles is small; when the transmittance of the control reference light and the local light are similar or the same, increasing the number of photons can effectively improve the sensitivity.
