Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of digital wireless communication transmission, in particular to a broadband OFDM signal angle measurement method and an angle measurement system in an unmanned aerial vehicle data chain.
Background
In an unmanned aerial vehicle data link system, a ground control station needs to accurately point to an airborne communication terminal, an angle tracking system mainly comprises three modes of manual tracking, program tracking and self-tracking, the self-tracking is the mainstream angle tracking mode at present, and the tracking precision, robustness and reaction speed are obviously superior to the two modes. The self-tracking is mainly divided into five modes of stepping tracking, conical scanning tracking, monopulse tracking, phased array scanning tracking, multi-beam tracking and the like according to the principle. A single-pulse tracking system with a fast tracking speed is often adopted to compare received signals from two or more antenna beams, and angular deviation information between the antenna and a target is extracted to determine the position of the target. The single pulse technique is divided into two basic types of amplitude comparison and phase comparison. The phase consistency of the receiving channel is higher than that of a single pulse. The phase consistency requirement of the amplitude-comparison single pulse on a receiving channel is lower.
Under the single-pulse tracking system, the single-pulse tracking system can be divided into the following parts according to the number of radio frequency channels: three-channel single pulse, two-channel single pulse and single-channel single pulse angle tracking systems. Compared with a multi-channel single-pulse angle tracking system, the single-channel single-pulse angle tracking system has the advantages of simple structure and low complexity, and particularly relates to the problem of channel backup in practical engineering application, and a single-pulse single channel is undoubtedly the best solution. The traditional single pulse angle tracking mostly adopts waveforms with constant envelope forms, such as PCM-FM pulse modulation, BPSK, QPSK or CDMA spread spectrum signals and the like. The essence of the baseband signal processing of the single-channel angle tracking receiver is to demodulate amplitude modulation signals and separate azimuth and pitch angle error signals according to corresponding time sequence relation. The common methods for amplitude-modulated signal demodulation include envelope detection and synchronous detection, and the envelope detection is relatively simple to realize.

With the increase of the high-speed data transmission code rate in order of magnitude, the problem of angle tracking of broadband signals is more and more concerned, and particularly, an unmanned aerial vehicle data chain needs to adopt an OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system capable of resisting multipath interference in a low-elevation environment, and the higher peak-to-average ratio characteristic of the broadband signal provides a challenge for angle measurement of the unmanned aerial vehicle data chain system adopting OFDM. The method in the above document cannot be directly used for angle measurement of high peak-to-average ratio OFDM signals on one hand, and on the other hand, the normalization processing method using factors or four channels is not suitable for single-channel single-pulse angle measurement.
