Specific embodiment
Below with reference to Figure of description and specific embodiment, the present invention is described in further details.
The time synchronized of ground base navigation system refers to:Slave station time synchronized, in main station time, locks including temporal frequency
And time difference measurement.As shown in figure 3, the ground base navigation method, system time synchronization (time synchronized between standing) of the present invention, concrete stream
Cheng Wei:
S1:The timing signal of slave station tracking lock main website;
S2:After tenacious tracking, slave station clock frequency and main website are consistent, and carry out two-way Time transfer receiver;
S3:Pseudorange and equipment delay between measuring station is distinguished during two-way Time transfer receiver;
S4:Collect main website measurement result;
S5:Calculate clock error between stations △ t ', slave station adjusts clock as side-play amount.That is, tied according to two-way Time transfer receiver
Fruit and equipment delay calculate clock error between stations, adjust local clock using this clock correction.
In above process, the present invention needs to set up clock error between stations measurement model, and this clock error between stations measurement model is used for dividing
The main source of error of analysis clock correction measurement, passes including signal trace measurement error, equipment delay calibration error and signal space
The measurement error that sowing time prolongs.
In above process, the present invention based on two-way Time transfer receiver clock correction measure, main website is broadcast signal persistently with
In the situation of track locking, using half-duplex mode of operation, realize two-way Time transfer receiver using the navigation signal that base station is broadcast.
In step S3 of said process, the present invention needs the signal propagation group of measuring apparatus transmission channel and receiving channel
Close time delay.
In a concrete application example, as shown in figure 1, signal transmission delay schematic diagram, ground base navigation system between for station
Site apparatus include receiving and transmitter module, receive and transmitter module shares a digital baseband signal processing unit.Wherein, connect
Receive module and include ADC, down coversion passage, reception antenna, transmitter module includes DAC, up-conversion passage, transmitting antenna.In signal
In propagation, existence time postpones item, includes following delay by the communication process of website A to website B:Website A transmitter module circuit prolongs
T lateA, spatial transmission delay τAB, website B receiver module circuit delay rB;Included by the propagation delay of website B to website A:Website
B transmitter module circuit delay tB, spatial transmission delay τBA, website A receiver module circuit delay rA.Wherein, equipment delay is tA+
rA、tB+rB, spatial transmission time delay is:Spatial transmission postpones τAB, spatial transmission postpone τBA.
Next, setting up slave site A to the time transmitted model of website B.As shown in figure 1, website B is in t2Moment detects
The timing signal that website A produces.Now, the time of website A is t1+tA+τAB+rB, due to website between there is clock correction △ t, therefore:
t1+tA+τAB+rB+ △ t=t2(1)
Thus, clock error between stations are obtained:
△ t=t2-t1-tA-τAB-rB(2)
By eliminating clock error between stations △ t, different websites can generate navigation signal simultaneously.However, during due to transmitter module
Prolong inconsistent, when through identical propagation distance, the time reaching receiver user is different, thus causing user's positioning meter
Calculate error.Therefore, each website should setup time be synchronous on the basis of signal x time, and defines new clock error between stations △ t ',
Meet:
△ t '=tB-tA-△t (3)
(2) are substituted into (3), obtains:
△ t '=t1-t2+(tB+rB)+τAB(4)
After measuring △ t ', as time offset, the clock of website B is modified, you can realize the website time same
Step.
Timing tracking accuracy depends on the measurement error of △ t ', including:Receiver is to t1Tracking measurement error, during equipment
Prolong (tB+rB) calibration error and signal space propagation delay measurement error σ (τAB).Wherein, σ (τAB) pass containing troposphere
Broadcast delay error, in the case of without accurate model correction, this error up to meter level, far above tracking measurement error and group
Close time delay calibration error, become the topmost source of error of time synchronized between station.Degree of precision troposphere can be set up between star ground pass
Broadcast model, however, in the case of ground base navigation system altitude angle is relatively low, mapping model deviation is larger.In order to avoid troposphere passes
Broadcast the impact that model error brings to clock correction certainty of measurement, the present invention proposes using clock between two-way Time transfer receiver method measuring station
Difference.
As shown in Fig. 2 bi-directional half-duplex Time transfer receiver schematic diagram between for station.Two-way Time transfer receiver method is a kind of high accuracy
Clock error measuring method, in the case of both direction spatial transmission time delay approximately equal, even if propagation delay is unknown, still can essence
Really measure clock correction.In ground base navigation system, site location is fixed, and two-way propagation time delay has short-term stability.Therefore, duplex or
Semiduplex mode all can meet high-acruracy survey demand.In order to avoid near-far interference, website can broadcast navigation in different time-gap
Signal, according to semiduplex mode, just can be utilized the navigation signal that website is broadcast to realize time synchronized between station.Semiduplex mode
Under, the bidirectional measurement process between website is as shown in Figure 2.
According to the time relationship of in figure, A sends out the B time receiving and can draw formula (2), and then obtains formula (4), and B sends out the A time receiving,
Can draw:
△ t=t3+tB+τBA+rA-t4(5)
Formula (5) is substituted into (3), obtains:
- △ t '=t3+(tA+rA)+τBA-t4(6)
Obtained with formula (6) according to formula (4):
Because two-way propagation time delay is consistent, i.e. τAB=τBA, formula (7) can be changed to:
According to (8), the certainty of measurement of △ t ' is only with timing signal t1,t3Tracking measurement error and equipment delay (tA+
rA),(tB+rB) calibration error relevant.Site apparatus belong to isomorphism design, and negligible above-mentioned error is in the difference of equipment room, then
Clock correction certainty of measurement σ (△ t ') is represented by:
In formula, σtranRepresent timing signal tracking measurement error, σchanRepresent equipment delay calibration error.Using identical
Signal system, because operating distance is shorter, meets σchan<σtran, therefore:
σ(△t′)<σtran(10)
When timing signal adopts the navigation signal of DSSS mode, tracking measurement error is represented by:
In formula, BnFor loop noise bandwidth, D is that correlator is spaced in front and back, TcohFor coherent integration time, C/N0Carry for intermediate frequency
Make an uproar ratio.Take D=1, loop integral time TcohTake 1ms, under different carrier-to-noise ratios, the relation of certainty of measurement and loop bandwidth is entered
Row emulation.Simulation result shows:When loop bandwidth is less than 20Hz, carrier-to-noise ratio C/N0>In the case of 50dBHz, tracking accuracy is better than
1ns, according to formula (10), website timing tracking accuracy is better than to navigation signal tracking accuracy.
From the foregoing, it will be observed that the present invention has redefined clock error between stations on the basis of timing signal x time, establish clock correction
Measurement model, analyzes the main source of error of clock correction measurement, including tracking measurement error, equipment delay calibration error and letter
The measurement error of number spatial transmission time delay.Carry out two-way Time transfer receiver on the basis of the locking of unidirectional temporal frequency, using half pair
Work mode of operation, to allow the navigation signal of time-division system as timing signal, it is to avoid increases Design of Signal and equipment realization
Complexity, in addition, the method for the present invention can effectively overcome the impact of tropospheric delay, TOA measurement accuracy is promoted to tracking
The precision level of navigation signal.
