Description

Blind scanning method and device
Technical Field
The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a blind scanning method and apparatus.
Background
The satellite television receives a satellite signal according to channel parameters such as frequency and symbol rate (symbol rate) of the satellite signal, so that a television program corresponding to the satellite signal can be played. So-called blind scan, in which the satellite television does not know the channel parameters of the satellite signal, the receiver of the satellite television automatically searches for the correct channel parameters in the designated frequency range.
In the conventional blind scanning method, a receiver of a satellite television first determines a center frequency and attempts convergence on a signal of a minimum symbol rate by using a filter bank using a timing recovery loop. If the timing recovery loop converges, the corresponding center frequency and symbol rate are determined to be the channel parameters of the satellite signal. The filter bank is then adjusted to expand the symbol rate and a timing recovery loop convergence attempt is made again. When the symbol rate exceeds the maximum possible value, the center frequency is changed, and the searching process is repeated from the minimum symbol rate until the searching of all frequency bands is completed. The blind scanning method for circularly searching channel parameters by using the timing recovery loop is low in efficiency because the possible symbol frequency range of the satellite signal is large, the signal frequency range is wide, and the convergence of the timing recovery loop also needs a long time.
In order to improve the efficiency of blind scanning, another blind scanning method is proposed in the prior art: the receiver of the satellite television analyzes the energy of the signal spectrum in a frequency range, and if the energy accumulation of the signal spectrum exceeds a set threshold value, the central frequency and the symbol rate corresponding to the signal spectrum are determined as a group of candidate channel parameters; a convergence attempt is then made using the timing recovery loop on the signal determined by the set of candidate channel parameters to lock onto the channel. The method has good searching capability for satellite signals with high signal-to-noise ratio threshold and obvious spectrum roll-off. However, in the third generation Digital Satellite Broadcasting system standard (DVB-S2X), the signal-to-noise threshold of the Satellite signal is low (the signal-to-noise threshold is at least-3 dB). Therefore, for the satellite signal of DVB-S2X, the blind scanning method cannot accurately determine the corresponding candidate channel parameters, and thus cannot successfully lock the corresponding channel.
Disclosure of Invention
The application provides a blind scanning method and a blind scanning device, which are used for solving the problem that the prior art is not suitable for rapidly and blindly scanning a satellite signal of DVB-S2X.
In order to achieve the purpose, the application provides the following technical scheme:
in a first aspect, a blind scanning method comprises the steps of:
s101, obtaining a signal of a frequency band to be measured.
S102, based on the frequency to be measured and the symbol rate to be measured, intercepting two sections of frequency spectrums from the frequency spectrums corresponding to the signals of the frequency range to be measured, wherein the center frequencies of the two sections of frequency spectrums are symmetrical based on the frequency to be measured, and the distance from the center frequencies of the two sections of frequency spectrums to the frequency to be measured is determined by the symbol rate to be measured.
And S103, determining a correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums.
And S104, if the correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums is larger than a preset value, determining the frequency to be measured and the symbol rate to be measured as a group of candidate channel parameters.
As shown in fig. 1, in the spectrum of the satellite signal, the spectrum at the roll-off edges on both sides is symmetrical, that is, the spectrum at the roll-off edges on both sides has correlation characteristics. Therefore, in the technical scheme of the application, the receiver intercepts two sections of frequency spectrums from the frequency spectrum corresponding to the signal of the frequency band to be detected based on the frequency to be detected and the symbol rate to be detected, and determines a correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums, thereby judging whether the two sections of frequency spectrums are the frequency spectrums at the roll-off edges on the two sides in the frequency spectrum of the satellite signal. If the correlation values of the two sections of frequency spectrums are larger than the preset value, the two sections of frequency spectrums are probably frequency spectrums at the roll-off edges on the two sides in the frequency spectrum of the satellite signal, and therefore the frequency to be measured and the symbol rate to be measured are probably corresponding to satellite information. Thus, the receiver determines the frequency to be measured and the symbol rate to be measured as a set of candidate channel parameters. It can be understood that the spectrum of the satellite signal with the low snr threshold has the relevant characteristics at both roll-off edges in the spectrum. Therefore, the technical scheme of the application can be suitable for the satellite signal with the low signal-to-noise ratio threshold, so that the problem that the prior art is not suitable for rapidly and blindly scanning the satellite signal of DVB-S2X is solved.

In this way, the receiver can lock the channel and extract the program information of the channel, so that the user can watch the program conveniently.
In an optional implementation manner, the method further includes: for a plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters, generating a sorting sequence of the plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters according to the sorting of the correlation values between two sections of frequency spectrums corresponding to the plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters from large to small; and acquiring channels according to the sorting sequence and the multiple groups of candidate channel parameters one by one. Based on the above technical solution, the larger the correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums corresponding to a group of candidate channel parameters is, the more likely the group of candidate channel parameters corresponds to a channel, so that the receiver acquires a channel according to a group of candidate channel parameters with a higher probability, which is beneficial for the receiver to lock to the channel as soon as possible.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a blind scanning method according to an embodiment of the present application. The blind scanning method provided by the embodiment of the application is suitable for blind scanning satellite signals of different standards, and the standards include but are not limited to: the first generation Digital Satellite Broadcasting system standard (Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite, DVB-S), the second generation Digital Satellite Broadcasting system standard (Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite 2, DVB-S2), DVB-S2X. The method comprises the following steps:
s101, the receiver acquires signals of a frequency range to be measured.
And the frequency band to be detected belongs to a satellite communication frequency band. Optionally, the frequency band to be measured is a part of the satellite communication frequency band, or the frequency band to be measured is the whole satellite communication frequency band. Illustratively, the preset frequency band is 30 to 31 GHZ.
Optionally, after the signal of the frequency band to be detected is obtained, the receiver performs fast fourier transform on the signal of the frequency band to be detected, and determines a frequency spectrum corresponding to the signal of the frequency band to be detected. It should be noted that the receiver may also determine the frequency spectrum corresponding to the signal of the frequency band to be measured by using other implementation manners, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
S102, the receiver intercepts two sections of frequency spectrums from the frequency spectrums corresponding to the signals of the frequency range to be detected based on the frequency to be detected and the symbol rate to be detected.
The center frequencies of the two sections of frequency spectrums are symmetrical based on the frequency to be measured, and the distance between the center frequencies of the two sections of frequency spectrums and the frequency to be measured is determined by the symbol rate to be measured.
Optionally, the two sections of spectrum are equal in bandwidth. Alternatively, the bandwidths of the two segments of spectrum are not equal. The bandwidths of the two frequency spectrums are preset or determined according to the first to-be-detected symbol rate. If the bandwidths of the two sections of frequency spectrums are determined according to the first to-be-detected symbol rate, the bandwidths of the two sections of frequency spectrums are positively correlated with the first to-be-detected symbol rate. That is, the larger the first symbol rate to be measured, the larger the bandwidth of the two sections of spectrum.
S103, the receiver determines a correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums.
Step S103 may refer to the prior art, and is not described herein again in this embodiment.
And S104, if the correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums is larger than a preset value, the receiver determines the frequency to be detected and the symbol rate to be detected as a group of candidate channel parameters.
It should be noted that, if the correlation values of the two sections of frequency spectrums are greater than the preset value, it is indicated that the symbol rate to be measured and the frequency to be measured have great possibility to correspond to a satellite signal, so that the receiver can determine that the symbol rate to be measured and the frequency to be measured are a set of candidate channel parameters. If the correlation value of the two sections of frequency spectrums is less than or equal to the preset value, the probability that the symbol rate to be detected and the frequency to be detected correspond to a satellite signal is very low, and therefore the receiver does not determine the symbol rate to be detected and the frequency to be detected as a group of candidate channel parameters.
Optionally, after determining a set of candidate channel parameters, the receiver acquires a channel according to the set of candidate channel parameters. Specifically, the receiver determines a signal of a frequency band according to the set of candidate channel parameters, and performs a convergence attempt on the signal of the frequency band by using a timing recovery loop. If the timing recovery loop does not converge within the preset time, it indicates that there is no corresponding channel in the set of candidate channel parameters. If the timing recovery loop converges within the preset time, it indicates that the set of candidate channel parameters has a corresponding channel, so that the receiver locks the channel and extracts the program information of the channel, so as to facilitate the user to watch the program.
The step S101 may be performed by the tuner shown in fig. 2, and the steps S102 to S104 may be performed by the demodulator in the receiver shown in fig. 2, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.
In order to determine all candidate channel parameters on the frequency band to be measured, as shown in fig. 4, an embodiment of the present application provides a blind scanning method, and after step S104, the method further includes the following steps:
s1051, the receiver adjusts the frequency to be measured, and executes the steps S102 to S104 again until the adjusted frequency to be measured exceeds the frequency band to be measured.
Optionally, the adjusting the frequency to be measured includes, but is not limited to, the following implementation manners: and increasing the frequency to be measured by a first step length, or decreasing the frequency to be measured by the first step length.
Optionally, the first step size is preset or set by a user.
In an optional implementation manner, the receiver adjusts the frequency to be detected, and then detects whether the adjusted frequency to be detected exceeds the frequency band to be detected; if the adjusted frequency to be measured does not exceed the frequency band to be measured, the receiver re-executes steps S102 to S04. If the adjusted frequency to be measured exceeds the frequency band to be measured, the receiver executes the following step S1061.
And S1061, adjusting the symbol rate to be measured by the receiver, resetting the frequency to be measured to the initial frequency, and re-executing the steps S102 to S1051 until the adjusted symbol rate to be measured exceeds a preset symbol frequency range.
The initial frequency is the minimum frequency of the frequency band to be detected, or the maximum frequency of the frequency band to be detected.
Optionally, the adjusting the symbol rate to be measured includes, but is not limited to, the following implementation manners: and increasing the symbol rate to be detected by a second step length, or decreasing the symbol rate to be detected by the second step length.
Optionally, the second step size is preset or set by a user.
In an optional implementation manner, the receiver adjusts the symbol rate to be detected, and then detects whether the adjusted symbol rate to be detected exceeds a preset symbol rate range. If the adjusted symbol rate to be measured does not exceed the preset symbol rate range, the receiver resets the frequency to be measured to the initial frequency, and re-executes the steps S102 to S1051. And if the adjusted symbol rate to be measured exceeds the preset symbol rate range, the receiver finishes the blind scanning process of the frequency band to be measured.
Optionally, in the blind scanning process, when a group of candidate channel parameters is determined, the receiver acquires a channel according to the group of candidate channel parameters.
Or after determining multiple groups of candidate channel parameters, the receiver acquires channels one by one according to the multiple groups of candidate channel parameters. It is understood that the larger the correlation value between two sections of spectrum corresponding to a set of candidate channel parameters, the more likely the set of candidate channel parameters corresponds to a channel. Therefore, in order to quickly acquire channels, for a plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters, the receiver firstly generates a sorting sequence of the plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters according to the descending sorting of two sections of frequency spectrums corresponding to the plurality of groups of candidate channel parameters; and then, the receiver acquires channels one by one according to the multiple groups of candidate channel parameters according to the sorting sequence.
For example, the receiver determines a group a candidate channel parameter, a group B candidate channel parameter, and a group C candidate channel parameter, and A, B, C the correlation values between the two frequency spectrums corresponding to the three groups of candidate channel parameters are: 0.5, 0.7 and 0.6. Therefore, according to the order of the correlation values from large to small, the three sets of candidate channel parameters can be determined to have the ordering order: group B candidate channel parameters, group C candidate channel parameters, and group A candidate channel parameters. In this case, the receiver first acquires the channel according to the B sets of candidate channel parameters. Then, the receiver acquires the channel according to the C group of candidate channel parameters. And finally, the receiver acquires the channel according to the A group of candidate channel parameters.
The above steps S1051 and S1061 may be performed by a demodulator in the receiver shown in fig. 2, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.
In order to determine all candidate channel parameters on the frequency band to be measured, as shown in fig. 5, an embodiment of the present application provides a blind scanning method, and after step S104, the method further includes the following steps:
and S1052, the receiver adjusts the symbol rate to be measured, and re-executes the steps S102 to S104 until the adjusted symbol rate to be measured exceeds a preset symbol rate range.
In an optional implementation manner, the receiver adjusts the symbol rate to be detected, and then detects whether the adjusted symbol rate to be detected exceeds a preset symbol rate range. If the adjusted symbol rate to be measured does not exceed the preset symbol rate range, the receiver re-executes steps S102 to S104. If the adjusted symbol rate to be measured exceeds the preset symbol rate range, the receiver performs the following step S1062.
S1062, the receiver adjusts the frequency to be measured, resets the symbol rate to be measured to the initial symbol rate, and re-executes the steps S102 to S1052 until the adjusted frequency to be measured exceeds the frequency band to be measured.
Wherein the initial symbol rate is a maximum symbol rate or a minimum symbol rate.
In an optional implementation manner, the receiver adjusts the frequency to be measured, and then detects whether the adjusted frequency to be measured exceeds the frequency band to be measured. If the adjusted frequency to be measured does not exceed the frequency band to be measured, the receiver resets the symbol rate to be measured to the initial symbol rate, and executes steps S102 to S1052 again. And if the adjusted frequency to be measured exceeds the frequency band to be measured, the receiver finishes the blind scanning process of the frequency band to be measured.
Optionally, in the blind scanning process, when a group of candidate channel parameters is determined, the receiver acquires a channel according to the group of candidate channel parameters. Or after determining multiple groups of candidate channel parameters, the receiver acquires channels one by one according to the multiple groups of candidate channel parameters.
The above steps S1052 and S1062 may be performed by a demodulator in the receiver shown in fig. 2, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Currently, a tuner of a receiver can only acquire signals of a frequency band with a certain bandwidth, in other words, the tuner cannot acquire signals of the whole satellite communication frequency band. Therefore, the receiver can only divide the whole satellite communication frequency band into a plurality of frequency bands to be detected, and perform blind scanning on the plurality of frequency bands to be detected one by one so as to complete the blind scanning on the whole satellite communication frequency band.
As shown in fig. 6, a blind scanning method provided in this embodiment of the present application is applied to a scene in which a whole satellite communication frequency band is blindly scanned. The method comprises the following steps: S201-S213.
S201, the receiver acquires signals of a frequency range to be measured.
S202, the receiver determines a frequency spectrum corresponding to the signal of the frequency range to be measured.
S203, the receiver sets the symbol rate to be measured as the initial symbol rate.
Wherein the initial symbol rate is a minimum symbol rate or a maximum symbol rate.
And S204, setting the frequency to be measured as the initial frequency by the receiver.
The initial frequency is the minimum frequency of the frequency band to be detected, or the maximum frequency of the frequency band to be detected.
S205, the receiver intercepts two sections of frequency spectrums from the frequency spectrums corresponding to the signals of the frequency range to be detected according to the frequency to be detected and the symbol rate to be detected.
S206, the receiver determines a correlation value between two sections of frequency spectrums.
S207, the receiver detects whether the correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums is larger than a preset value.
It should be noted that, if the correlation value between the two frequency spectrums is greater than a preset value, the receiver performs the following step S208. If the correlation value between the two sections of frequency spectrums is less than or equal to the preset value, the receiver executes the following step S209.
S208, the receiver determines the frequency to be measured and the symbol rate to be measured as a group of candidate channel parameters.
And S209, the receiver adjusts the frequency to be measured according to the first step length.
Referring to step S204, when the initial frequency is the minimum frequency of the frequency band to be measured, the receiver increases the frequency to be measured by the first step length.
