Ruiheng Zhang, Yuzhang Yuan, Haitao Wang, Xuejun Pei, Jin Meng

Taking a typical high-power microwave power supply system as the research object, this paper quantitatively simulates and compares electromagnetic disturbance characteristics under multiple operating conditions, systematically investigates the influence mechanism of the system on EMI, and verifies the proposed simulation model via prototype experiments. Firstly, the typical equipment composition and three operating modes of the system are elaborated. Standardized high-frequency equivalent circuits of thyristors, capacitors, and inductors are established, and parasitic parameters are extracted to construct a system-level high-frequency coupling model. Different from traditional static parasitic extraction and separated field-circuit simulation methods, the proposed global collaborative optimization co-simulation method with voltage-dependent thyristor parasitic model significantly improves EMI prediction accuracy under full-cycle multi-mode operation. Secondly, based on the dynamic device characteristics under resonant charging, energy recovery and energy supplement modes, the generation mechanisms of EMI are clarified with quantitative data. During modeling, the electrical characteristics of thyristor body diodes and inter-electrode capacitances are fully incorporated with reference to actual component parameters. The EMC co-simulation based on CST field-circuit coupling is adopted to collaboratively optimize all parameters, which reduces the approximation error introduced by local modeling and greatly improves simulation accuracy. Combined with simulation and prototype experimental verification, this paper reveals the multi-path EMI coupling mechanism of pulsed power systems. The proposed parasitic parameter-based SPICE modeling and field-circuit co-simulation method can provide quantitative analysis tools and theoretical support for the EMC suppression design of high-power microwave power supplies.
