It generates swing.It is this swing it is serious when laser space communication can be made to interrupt, the mistake of laser communication system can be made when more
Code rate increases, communication quality decline.Thus the characteristics of laser space communication, makes it in telecommunication in alignment and tracking
It is very harsh in the requirement of system.
Terahertz (THz) frequency range is higher than millimeter wave and is lower than LONG WAVE INFRARED, and band limits is in 0.3THz between 30THz
(wavelength 1mm~10 μm).Compared to microwave communication: 1) capacity of THz communications is bigger, several hundred much larger than microwave in bandwidth
Million bandwidth is able to carry out the communication of Gb/s magnitude;2) THz wave beam is narrower, directionality is more preferable, smaller target can be detected with
And it is more accurately located;3) THz wave has better confidentiality and anti-interference ability;4) since THz wave wavelength is relatively much shorter,
The size of antenna be can be made smaller in the case where completion said function, and other systems structure can also be made simpler, warp
Ji.Compared to laser communication: 1) photon energy of THz wave is about the 1/40 of visible light, the energy efficiency as information carrier
It is higher;2) THz wave has the ability for preferably penetrating sand and dust smog, and round-the-clock work may be implemented;3) field angle compares laser
Greatly, wave cover area is bigger, so that receiver can be received correctly in a certain range, relaxes acquisition and tracking
The requirement of APT expands the distance of communication.
Summary of the invention
The present invention proposes a completely new inter-satellite Terahertz communication framework: PHOTRONIC communication system.Its main feature is that melting
Closed infrared laser communication (photonics:PHOT) and millimetre-wave attenuator (electronics: ELEC ONICTRONIC) the advantages of.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the invention proposes a kind of inter-satellite Terahertz communication system frameworks, including set
The transmitter and receiver on satellite platform is set, when Terahertz frequency range is the low-frequency range less than 10THz, the transmitting
Machine uses flood tide Terahertz antenna array;When high band of the Terahertz frequency range in 10THz~30THz, the transmitter is
Thz laser device;When Terahertz frequency range is above-mentioned low-frequency range or high band, the receiver is flood tide Terahertz day
Linear array;The flood tide Terahertz antenna array includes 104~107The bay of the order of magnitude, the flood tide Terahertz antenna array benefit
Made of semiconductor technology, by several work different wave length bay (because each Terahertz bay also by
Receive the sub-antenna array element composition of different wave length, such compound Terahertz bay recomposition Terahertz aerial array) benefit
It is realized with the same technique, to realize multi-frequency MIMO system;The receiver will be by an inspection after receiving THz wave
Wave quantum device extracts information, and drives the same detection quantum device using several bays.
The detection quantum device is based on plasma high electron mobility transistor.
It is using the method that inter-satellite Terahertz communication system framework of the present invention realizes information transmission: by information signal compression
It is modulated to electric signal after coding and loads on THz source, which is to form narrow beam through flood tide Terahertz antenna array
To external radiation or laser light source;Receiving end flood tide Terahertz antenna array is directed toward control (Beam Steering) in electron beam
Adjustment under, realize launching beam and receive wave beam alignment;The terahertz signal received quilt after quantum device detects
It is sent to the decoding decompression circuit of rear class, finally restores information signal.
It is less than the Terahertz low-frequency range of 10THz in frequency, transmitter uses flood tide Terahertz antenna array, utilizes antenna array
The technology that Wave beam forming is synthesized with energy realizes the high-power output of narrow beam with path attenuation of drawing up.In addition, the electricity of antenna array
Sub- scanning mode can quickly adjust beam direction, realize launching beam and received alignment.Receiver also uses flood tide antenna array, leads to
The resonance for crossing free electron in antenna array metal achievees the effect that energy accumulating and enhancing, and can be from the electromagnetic wave of various wavelength
In select required wavelength (as radio radio station select), realize single-frequency ' monochrome ' reception, other wavelength signals of drawing up
Interference.
In the Terahertz high band of 10THz~30THz (wavelength is 30 microns~10 microns), transmitter is swashed using modulation
Light, but receive by the way of flood tide antenna array.The elements such as the mechanical oscillation due to satellite platform cause the laser of transmitting with flat
Platform is swung at random, although there is hot spot swing in receiving end, receiving end is received using multiple flood tide antenna arrays.Each day
Linear array can be swept to by this laser beam, be equivalent to different antenna arrays different moments in time-domain and received laser signal.
Since electronic clock (GHz magnitude) is significantly faster than mechanical chattering frequency, so that electron process can be passed through after receiving signal
Mode the signal that these different antennae battle arrays receive is subjected to splicing synthesis, realize the reception of big data rate, overcome tradition
The shortcomings that transmission data rate reduces caused by laser communication is swung due to hot spot.Further, since communication does not need coherence, it can
To alleviate the pressure of alignment, so that the requirement of geometry and relative physical location for antenna array is not so harsh, institute
Many flood tide antenna arrays can be stacked up during lift-off.Arrived it is reinflated after space, to expand antenna array
Equivalent bore.
It, can be by several work in difference since the flood tide antenna array proposed is made using semiconductor technology
The bay of wavelength is realized using the same technique.Namely realize the reception of multi-frequency.It can thus use more
The multi input of frequency receives and multi-frequency emits and multi-frequency MIMO system.
Antenna will extract information by way of quantum device direct detection after receiving THz wave.In order to improve quantum device
The receiving efficiency of part, can be using multiple element antennas come by the way of driving the same quantum device.
Detection quantum device can be based on plasma high electron mobility transistor (Plasmonic HEMT).The device
Class surface plasmons on Terahertz metal antenna is introduced into Plasmonic-HEMT of the channel length less than 100nm
Grid, since grid groove size and the mean free path of electronics can compare, the momentum relaration time is longer than the transition time of electronics,
Ballistic transport controls the electron motion between source and drain.HEMT is under the conditions of applying bias is formed by nonsymmetry boundary, channel
The electronic fluid of interior original stable will become unstable.Due to the transmitting between source and drain so that unstable electronic fluid is relevant puts
It is big to form plasma resonance.The velocity of wave of the plasma formed in so short short channel HEMT can achieve 108cm/s
More than, the electron drift velocity in significantly larger than common HEMT.Using Plasmonic HEMT there are many advantages of, first, etc.
Ion velocity of wave propagation is fast, overcomes the too slow disadvantage of traditional thermal detector response speed;Second, in scene effect transistor,
Higher channel electrons concentration can be obtained, and this can be further improved the frequency of plasma oscillation;Third, plasma
The frequency of resonance increases with the reduction of field effect transistor grid length, can increase investigative range by changing grid length;4th,
Plasma resonance can realize there is the subband of high response rate relative to refrigerating plant is needed to reach extremely low temperature just at room temperature
For transition quantum well structure terahertz detector, there is great advantage using field effect transistor.
