Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Timing Synchronization technology of wireless communication field, more particularly to one kind to be based on multiple-symbol detection
(MSD) arbitrary velocity Continuous phase frequency shift keying (the Continuous Phrase Frequency Shift of decision-feedback
Key, CPFSK) modulated signal Timing Synchronization method.
Background technology
Continuous phase frequency shift keying (CPFSK) belongs to the special case of Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM).With traditional modulation not
Together, CPM modulated signals do not have SPA sudden phase anomalies at the time of symbol replaces, and can at utmost reduce spectrum width, meanwhile, CPM
Or constant enveloped modulation, it is insensitive to the nonlinear effect of power amplifier, it can significantly save transmission power.
The mode of traditional CPM signal generally use difference frequency discriminations is demodulated, although this mode is simple in structure, to because
Amplitude caused by multipath fading and the distortion in terms of phase have stronger antijamming capability, also easily by hardware realization.But should
Difference frequency discrimination method is since there are larger " threshold effect ", only after input signal-to-noise ratio reaches certain value, detector ability
Normal work.The Timing Synchronization of CPM signals is also a difficult point for realizing CPM system, since the phase that signal has in itself connects
The characteristics of continuous, do not have obvious amplitude transition, Timing Synchronization extraction relative difficulty between symbol and symbol.
Timing Synchronization is also bit synchronization, sign synchronization, is the element of communication system, i.e., produces one in receiving terminal
A clock signal identical with transmission bit or character rate, sentences for carrying out correctly sampling to the baseband signal after demodulation
Certainly, the influence of the factor such as noise and interference is eliminated.
The Performance Evaluating Indexes of Timing Synchronization mainly have:Static phase, shake, dislocation rate, settling time, the retention time,
Synchronous thresholding signal-to-noise ratio etc..Wherein static phase refers to inclined between the average phase of synchronizing signal and the phase of optimal sampling point
Difference, is mainly used for the synchronous precision of description;Shake refers to the synchronizing signal caused by the change of noise, and with the time to deviate its normal
The phenomenon of position, for describing synchronous stability;Dislocation rate refers to due to declining, disturbing or the reason such as send-receive clock error causes
Synchronizing pulse train deviate the frequency that original sequence phenomenon occurs, and a measurement index of stability;Settling time is
Since the reception signal containing bit synchronization information is into demodulator, synchronous extraction circuit exports normal bit synchronization signal in place
Untill needed for time, description synchronizing signal capture speed;Retention time is to disappear from the reception signal containing bit synchronization information
Mistake starts, and the time untill the normal bit synchronization signal interruption of synchronous extraction circuit output in place, describes to tie up synchronizing signal
The ability held;Synchronous thresholding signal-to-noise ratio refers on the premise of certain bit synchronization quality is ensured, receives the minimum that input terminal allows
Signal-to-noise ratio, this index embody adaptability of the bit synchronization to deep fade.
With the continuous improvement of CPFSK modulated data transmittings speed and operating distance, in order to lift demodulation performance,
William P.Osbome etc. propose MSD technologies for the demodulation of CPFSK signals.When receiving a symbol, do not stand
Make decisions, but by the signal waveform received and the related fortune of waveform progress that is locally stored in multiple symbol lengths
Calculate, symbol is adjudicated with this.MSD technologies are mutually tied with Turbo product codes (TPC) technology in the works in the advanced remote measurement in target range in the U.S.
Close, strengthen the performance of telemetry system.In theory, use the telemetry systems of this two technologies in the bit error rate under conditions of, compare
Original system can obtain the channel gain of nearly 9dB.Gain can be obtained using the system of MSD technologies, be so as to carrying out accurate
Timing Synchronization premised on.The environment of low signal-to-noise ratio proposes the time synchronization method of CPFSK signals new requirement.
Existing method carries out the extraction of phase demodulation information using single symbol period lead-lag likelihood detection algorithm, passes through loop
Filter circuit carries out clock regeneration, and controls lead-lag likelihood detection circuit by regeneration time clock, reaches the mesh of sign synchronization
's.However, be detected due to docking the collection of letters number respectively using local ' 1 ' and ' 0 ' likelihood detection sequence, under low signal-to-noise ratio

Include:
Step 1, refering to Fig. 2.Arbitrarily than down-sampled:Resampling unit using CPFSK baseband signals as input, first with
Accumulator adds up input, then accumulation result is sampled when enable signal is effective to obtain output signal, at the same time
Accumulator is reset, this process is then circulated, completes the down-sampled operation to input signal.The step believes CPFSK base band
Number sampling rate be reduced to D times of character rate.
Step 2 refers to Fig. 3.MSD decision-feedbacks:The CPFSK signals obtained after resampling unit is down-sampled correspond to D data
Set (capitalization represents the set of the corresponding D data of a CPFSK symbol respectively) sequentially enter MSD units, MSD is mono-
Member makes decisions input signal according to symbol period, output symbol sequence is (small under the control of the enable signal of NCO outputs
The mother stock that writes does not represent a symbol), feedback signal unit under the control of the NCO enable signals exported, to each symbol into
Row processing, obtains feedback signal.Feedback signal unit therein is with the conjugated signal of the corresponding CPFSK modulated signals of court verdict
As feedback signal, due to symbol, the corresponding CPFSK signals in ' 0 ' and ' 1 ' are conjugated each other, and feedback signal can be by following two
Implementation obtains:
A. feedback signal unit first docks received symbol and is negated:Symbol ' 0 ' is changed into ' 1 ', symbol ' 1 ' is changed into ' 0 ';
Then, CPFSK modulation is carried out to symbol of the inverted, obtains feedback signal;
B. feedback signal directly docks received symbol and carries out CPFSK modulation, and conjugation is then taken to modulated signal, obtains anti-
Feedback signal.
MSD units just make decisions current sign after each N number of symbol before and after continuous observation, so except MSD is mono-
Outside the hardware delay that member and feedback signal unit are brought, there is N number of symbol period between feedback signal and corresponding CPFSK signals
Delay.Since initial phase is different, feedback signal is not conjugated each other with corresponding CPFSK signals, but still is met related

Subdivision, complex multiplier and accumulator therein form digital correlator.First, time delay module prolongs CPFSK signals
When operate, obtain it is advanced, immediately and hysteresis three branches, make a symbol it is corresponding immediately branch phase it is corresponding with the symbol
Feedback signal phase alignment, the phase d symbol period more advanced than the phase of instant branch of advanced branch, lags branch
Phase falls behind d symbol period than the phase of instant branch, and d represents digital correlator spacing.Then, three digital correlators point
Tri- road CPFSK signals of Bie Dui carry out complex multiplication operations with feedback signal.Then, accumulator is under enable signal control, every
Add up in a symbol period to complex multiplier output signal.Finally, coherent integration unit carries out length to correlated results

Power, non-coherent integration unit carry out the performance number of coherent integration results the non-coherent integration that length is, error detection unit
Phase error information is obtained using non-coherent integration results:
E (n) and L (n) represents advanced branch and lags the coherent integration results of branch respectively, is returned by what error-detecting obtained
One phase error changed is expressed as:
The identified result of current sign and the initial phase of the front and rear symbol of current sign and each symbol suffer from directly
Relation, the phase demodulation curve that distinct symbols obtain are different.Non-coherent integration module carries out the performance number of coherent integration results
Accumulation is added, the identified result of multiple symbols can be carried out smoothly, while can also offset the shake of grass, improves letter
Make an uproar ratio.Correlated results is zoomed in or out into multiple and does not interfere with signal-to-noise ratio and phase error information, in order to avoid in incoherent product
/ after link in occur numerical value overflow, coefficient 1/N can be multiplied by non-coherent integration resultscor 2Nnc。
Refering to Fig. 6.Based on delay locked loop structural adjustment signal phase:The step includes loop filter and improved
NCO, first, loop filter are filtered phase error signal, then, filter output signal and fixed accumulated value phase
Add, obtain the control word of NCO, finally, improved NCO adds up control word, can obtain the pulse signal of specific frequency,
The pulse signal at the same time as resampling unit integrate-dump enable with Timing Synchronization loop other units effectively enable
Signal, control Timing Synchronization loop accurately track code Doppler.The fixation accumulated value σ of NCO is character rate RbD
Times, i.e. σ=DRb。
Loop filter can reduce the shake of phase error signal, reduce the influence of high-frequency noise, carried for phase-locked loop
For a short-term memory, in system due to instantaneous noise and during losing lock, it is ensured that the rapid recapture signal of loop is, it can be achieved that right
The tracking of the code Doppler of dynamic change.Exponent number and noise bandwidth determine dynamic response of the loop filter to signal.This hair
Bright to be directed to different application environments, single order ring, second order loop or third order PLL may be selected in loop filter, is there is the system of frequency locking ring
In, the phase locked loop filter aided in by frequency locking ring can be selected.After selected filter order, it can be required according to receiver
The most weak signal of the intensity of receiving and highest user's dynamic stress of required support select an appropriate noise bandwidth.
Noise bandwidth is bigger, and the convergence rate of loop is faster;Conversely, tracking of the loop to signal is more accurate.On the other hand, noise bandwidth
Bigger, loop update cycle just must be shorter, in the case where character rate is certain, it is necessary to the selection shorter time of integration, no
Then loop can be made to become unstable.
Refering to Fig. 7.Traditional NCO is realized by phase accumulator, is overturn in accumulated phase from negative angle to positive-angle
Moment exports pulse, and system sampling clock frequency is fsWhen, traditional NCO can produce frequency range as [0, fs/ 2] pulse letter
Number.The frequency f of traditional NCO outputs signaloWith frequency word fiRelation be:
The frequency for the enable signal that resampling unit needs is possible to the half more than system sampling clock frequency.To be terrible
To the enable signal met the requirements, the present invention improves the structure of traditional NCO.
MOD modules in improved NCO represent to ask accumulation result divided by system sampling clock frequency fsRemainder;AND and
NOT represents to ask respectively and and inversion operation;As control word fi∈[0,fsWhen/2], the frequency of signal A is fi, the frequency of signal B is
