The invention is described in detail below with reference to the figures and the specific embodiments.
Fig. 1 is a flow chart of a fast synchronization method of a frequency hopping communication system. As can be seen from the figure, the method comprises the following steps:
(1) And the reference station inserts time reference information into the downlink synchronous time slot and sends downlink synchronous signals to the non-reference station according to a preset frequency hopping pattern at the frequency with the concentrated synchronous frequency.
The time reference information is represented by a multi-bit binary number. If the time reference information is calculated for 1000 hops/second, corresponding to 1ms of time accuracy, and calculated for 30 years of operation, the time reference information is represented as a 40-bit binary number, (1000 × 3600 × 24 × 365 × 30=946080000000 =0xdcz46c 32800, corresponding to 40-bit binary data).
(2) The non-reference station captures a downlink synchronous signal with time reference information at a certain frequency of the synchronous frequency set, after the downlink synchronous signal is successfully captured, frequency offset estimation, time reference information extraction and link delay estimation are carried out on the downlink signal, the link delay can be obtained by dividing the distance between the reference station and the non-reference station by the speed of light, the non-reference station can obtain the longitude and latitude of the non-reference station through a GPS or a Beidou positioning system, and therefore the distance between the non-reference station and the reference station is determined according to the longitude and latitude.
(3) And the non-reference station calibrates the local time according to the received time reference information and the link delay estimated value, adjusts the frequency hopping clock to complete initial synchronization with the frequency hopping clock of the reference station, and corrects the uplink carrier frequency according to the downlink frequency offset estimation result.
And the uplink carrier frequency correction value is obtained by multiplying the ratio of the uplink frequency to the downlink frequency by the downlink frequency offset estimation value. For example: if the current transmission frequency is f, the downlink estimated frequency difference is Δ f, the uplink-downlink frequency ratio is ρ (for example, 2GHz downlink, 3GHz uplink, ρ =3GHz/2ghz = 1.5), and the adjusted transmission frequency is f + ρ × Δ f.
(4) The uplink synchronization signal of the non-reference station is sent to the reference station according to an uplink frequency hopping pattern, the uplink synchronization signal comprises 1 guard interval, X guide sequences, X unique codes and X station information, wherein the X station information of the same non-reference station is the same, the X unique codes are different from each other, the corresponding unique codes of different non-reference stations are the same, and X >1.
(5) The method comprises the steps that a reference station carries out frequency hopping clock error, power and frequency offset estimation on received uplink synchronous signals of each whole frame and analyzes station information of a non-reference station, frequency hopping clock error validity judgment is carried out, when the frequency hopping clock error is valid, the uplink frequency hopping clock error, the power value and the frequency offset information and the station information of the non-reference station are inserted into a downlink state time slot and sent to the non-reference station, otherwise, an invalid identifier and the station information of the non-reference station are inserted into the downlink state time slot and sent to the non-reference station, the frequency hopping clock error refers to the phase difference of time frequency hopping clocks of the non-reference station and the reference station, and the invalid identifier is 0xFF.
(6) The non-reference station analyzes the downlink state time slot to obtain station information, a frequency hopping clock error, frequency offset and power, judges whether the frequency hopping clock error of the station is effective or not, and if the frequency hopping clock error is effective, the step (7) is carried out; and if the frequency hopping clock error is invalid, adjusting the transmission time of the frequency hopping clock and the uplink synchronous time slot signal, sliding backwards for 1/4 frequency hopping clock period, and repeatedly executing the steps (4) to (6).
(7) The non-reference station judges whether the frequency hopping clock error is smaller than a preset threshold value, if so, the non-reference station switches to a synchronous tracking state, and executes the step (8); otherwise, correcting the sending time of the frequency hopping clock and the uplink synchronous time slot signal according to the frequency hopping clock error, and repeatedly executing the step (4) to the step (7).
(8) The non-reference station judges whether the frequency deviation is smaller than a preset frequency deviation threshold, if the frequency deviation is smaller than the threshold, the non-reference station enters a frequency tracking state, and the step (9) is executed; otherwise, correcting the sending frequency of the uplink synchronous signal according to the extracted uplink frequency offset, and repeatedly executing the step (4) to the step (8).

Table 1 shows a basic structure of an uplink signal frame of a fast synchronous frequency hopping communication system, where an uplink signal is a synchronization signal transmitted from a non-reference station to a reference station, and is composed of a synchronization slot (ranging slot), a control slot, and a service slot. See table below:
table 1 basic structure of uplink signal frame
The synchronous time slot is used for synchronizing and tracking the frequency hopping communication system and is specially used for signals of synchronous parameter estimation;
the control time slot is used for the transmission of control and signaling information of calling, network entering, network leaving and the like of a non-reference station (subscriber station);
the traffic time slot is used for communication between non-reference stations (subscriber stations), and each frame is composed of 1 or more traffic time slots, and each traffic time slot is the minimum unit used by a subscriber.
Table 2 shows a basic structure of a downlink signal frame of the fast synchronous frequency hopping communication system. The downlink signal is a signal transmitted from the reference station to the non-reference station. The downlink signal frame is composed of four parts of a synchronous time slot, a control time slot, a state time slot and a service time slot. See table below:
table 2 downlink signal frame basic structure
The reference station receives the synchronous time slot signal to estimate parameters such as frequency hopping clock error, power and frequency deviation of different users, and inserts the estimated value and the analyzed station information into a state information time slot in a downlink frame, wherein the station information of different non-reference stations is inconsistent, and the non-reference stations identify whether the group of parameter values is of the station according to the station information.
The basic structure of the uplink synchronization timeslot signal frame is shown in table 3 below:
TABLE 3 basic structure of uplink synchronous timeslot signal frame
a. Guard interval
In order to avoid this phenomenon, a certain time gap needs to be left as a guard time (i.e., a guard interval) when the frequency hopping communication system performs synchronization.
The guard interval is used for avoiding mutual interference of signals between stations, the time occupied by the guard interval is larger than the maximum link delay estimation error between the non-reference station and the reference station, and no signal is transmitted in the guard interval.
b. Boot sequence
The pilot sequence is used for assisting frequency offset estimation and is composed of a special sequence. In this embodiment, the leader sequence is a sequence of 48 length, which is "1" and "0" alternately arranged, and may be a "1010 \ 823010" sequence or a "0101 \ 823001" sequence. The method is used for frequency offset estimation of uplink synchronous signals, and the design advantages and disadvantages of the method can influence the precision of the frequency offset estimation, so that the synchronization speed and the synchronization effect are influenced.
c. Unique code 1-unique code X
The unique codes 1-X are used for frequency hopping clock error estimation (namely frequency hopping clock phase difference), and are the core of the whole frequency hopping communication system synchronization.
In order to ensure that the system can work normally, the length of the unique code in the synchronous signal is determined according to the demodulation threshold of the system, the unique codes used by different non-reference stations are the same, the unique codes 1-X in the synchronous time slot are different, and the self-correlation characteristic and the cross-correlation characteristic are better, so that the acquisition probability of the system can be improved, and the false alarm probability can be reduced.
Designs that employ multiple different unique codes have several advantages as follows:
(1) when the frequency hopping communication system is in an initial synchronization stage, after the non-reference station completes downlink synchronization, a clock error (namely, the receiving and transmitting synchronous frequency is not aligned) still exists between the frequency hopping clock and the frequency hopping clock of the reference station, and if only a mode of 1 unique code and station information is adopted, the missed detection probability is higher; by adopting a plurality of unique codes and station information, the synchronous capture probability can be effectively improved, namely the error estimation of the fast frequency hopping clock is realized;
(2) the ALOHA competition mode adopted by the frequency hopping communication system is synchronous, so that a plurality of user stations can be synchronized at the same time, the collision probability is high, the system synchronization is influenced, and the use of the whole system is influenced. By adopting a plurality of unique code structures, if collision occurs (namely, the frequency hopping clock between user stations has errors), the system only needs to capture more than 1 unique code to finish the error estimation of the frequency hopping clock, therefore, the influence on the system synchronization is little, and the system synchronization speed is improved.
(3) Assuming that the error rate of the baseband signal is P b The length of the unique code is G, the correlation threshold is Q, and the correct detection probability is P d If Y unique codes are captured successfully, the synchronous capture probability is P c The capture probability is increased by a factor of T.
The synchronization acquisition probability is improved by T times.
If: the error rate of the baseband signal is 0.12, the length of the unique code is 32, the threshold is more than 28, X is 4, Y is 1, a single unique code method is adopted, and the capture probability is P d =0.4544, the method of the invention for multiple unique codes has an acquisition probability P c =0.9921, the capture probability is significantly improved.
d. Station information
The station information is used for identifying different user stations, the used bit number is determined by the number of stations supported by the system and is coded.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a process of estimating and adjusting an error of a frequency hopping clock, which is mainly implemented as follows:
the uplink frequency hopping clock error estimation of the frequency hopping communication system is realized mainly by searching the unique code of the uplink signal to determine the position (namely the frequency hopping clock phase) of the uplink signal in the frequency hopping signal, the reference station inserts the estimated frequency hopping clock error and other parameter information into the downlink state time slot and transmits the parameter information back to the non-reference station, and the non-reference station adjusts the frequency hopping clock phase according to the frequency hopping clock error.
The method comprises the steps that a reference station receives uplink synchronous signals, parallel correlation operation is carried out on unique codes 1-X and input signals to obtain X unique code correlation values, when Y unique code correlation values are larger than a preset threshold, the unique codes are considered to be successfully captured, frequency hopping clock errors are extracted from any one unique code correlator to serve as frequency hopping clock errors of the reference station, then the effectiveness of the frequency hopping clock error estimation value is judged according to a power estimation value, if the power estimation value is small and the unique codes are successfully captured, the situation of error capture is possible at the moment, the fact that the frequency hopping clock error estimation value is effective is confirmed only when the power is larger than the preset threshold and the unique codes are successfully captured, and otherwise, the frequency hopping clock error estimation value is considered to be invalid. Thus, the synchronization acquisition accuracy can be improved, false synchronization can be avoided, and the synchronization speed can be improved. When the frequency hopping clock error estimation value is effective, inserting the error into a downlink state time slot, sending the error to a non-reference station in the state time slot, extracting the frequency hopping clock error by the non-reference station and then judging, when the frequency hopping clock error is smaller than a preset threshold value, finishing uplink synchronous capture, entering a tracking state, performing frequency offset and power adjustment, and otherwise, continuously adjusting the sending time of an uplink signal.
In this embodiment, the number of symbols of the synchronization time slot after the guard interval is removed is 960, which is composed of 6 hops, each hop is 160 symbols, wherein the pilot sequence is 48 symbols, the unique code is 32 symbols, and the station information is 80 symbols (after coding), the correlation peak value of the unique code is on the 80 th symbol of each hop under complete synchronization, and at this time, the frequency hopping clock error is 0; if the correlation peak value of the unique code is on the 75 th symbol, the frequency hopping clock error is-5 at the moment; if the correlation peak of the unique code is on the 85 th symbol, the frequency hopping clock error is 5 at this time, and the system frequency hopping clock error threshold value takes 1/160 frequency hopping clock period.

The method comprises the steps that a reference station carries out power estimation on an uplink signal, when a power value is larger than a set threshold, frequency hopping clock error estimation is effective, the power value is sent to a non-reference station in a downlink state time slot, the non-reference station carries out power adjustment on the uplink signal according to the power estimation value, when the power estimation value is consistent with system design power, namely the power value reaches a preset power value, the power adjustment is finished, a power maintaining state is entered, and closed-loop power control is achieved.
In this embodiment, when no signal is input, the estimated power value is 0dB, and therefore, the power threshold value for determining whether a signal is input is set to 5dB at the initial synchronization stage; after the frequency hopping clock error and the frequency offset are adjusted, the level required by the system work is 15dB, and the power threshold value is set to be 15dB at the moment.
