Technical Field
The invention relates to a calibration and calibration method and device for a RDSS (radio data service) user machine test system, belonging to the technical field of RDSS user machine test.
Background
With the common application of the Beidou RDSS user machine in various industries, RDSS user machine test systems are built by various large user machine manufacturers, quality certification detection centers and comparison and test general units and are used for testing the functional performance of the RDSS user machine in a darkroom. However, a problem is also brought about, the RDSS client test system is not built by one manufacturer, and sizes of different darkrooms are different, so that consistency of test results of different RDSS client test systems is guaranteed. However, this approach has three problems: firstly, the test result of the RDSS user machine test system used as the reference can not ensure traceability and credibility by 100 percent; secondly, the stability and reliability of the user machine serving as the comparison golden machine are also problematic, and particularly all situations can not be traversed by the EIRP and the pseudo-range measurement precision; thirdly, when the user machine as a golden machine is taken to a test system of another user machine manufacturer for comparison, the fairness aspect is questioned due to monopoly.
The existing patent and paper are concerned about the self calibration of the test system, and the RDSS user machine index test method, and related paper or patent of calibrating a standard 'golden machine' is not provided.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a calibration and calibration method and device for an RDSS user machine test system, which are used for calibrating and calibrating different RDSS user machine test systems and ensuring the consistency of test results of the RDSS user machine test systems scattered all over the country, thereby overcoming the defects of the prior art.
When the RDSS user machine testing system tests the RDSS user machine performance indexes, three indexes need calibration and calibration: two-way zero value, EIRP value and pseudorange measurement accuracy. The definition of the bidirectional zero value is the time delay from the antenna aperture surface of the RDSS user machine to the time delay from the antenna aperture surface of the incoming signal to the antenna aperture surface of the outgoing signal, the EIRP value is the equivalent omnidirectional transmitting power of the RDSS user machine, and the pseudo-range measurement accuracy is an index of the RDSS user machine test system for receiving the incoming signal.
The invention is realized by the following technical scheme that the portable calibration and calibration device synchronously acquires the inbound signals of the RDSS user machine when the RDSS user machine test system tests the bidirectional zero-value index of the RDSS user machine; when the EIRP value and the pseudo-range measurement accuracy of the RDSS user machine are tested, different EIRP and different pseudo-range inbound signals simulated by an RDSS inbound analog source are collected and then synchronously played back to the RDSS user machine test system to be calibrated and calibrated respectively, and consistency comparison and calibration between different test systems are realized by comparing whether the test results of the bidirectional zero value, the EIRP value and the pseudo-range measurement accuracy of the RDSS user machine test system to be calibrated and calibrated are in accordance with expectations or not. And calibrating the RDSS user machine test system to be calibrated in the range of the EIRP and the pseudo-range measurement accuracy indexes by collecting and replaying inbound signals corresponding to different EIRP values and different pseudo-range measurement accuracies.
Since the portable calibration device causes an extra time delay T1 when the inbound signal is synchronously captured, an extra time delay (T2-T1) is also introduced when the inbound signal is played back, that is, the portable calibration device captures the played back inbound signal and introduces an extra T2 time delay, which results in an extra T2 added to the bi-directional zero value, as shown in fig. 5. However, the extra time delay T2 is eliminated by comparison and calibration through high-speed oscilloscope acquisition and zero value calculation software, the method is to calculate the inbound signal zero value of the RDSS user machine and the inbound signal zero value played back by the portable calibration and calibration device, respectively, the difference is calculated to obtain T2, and the zero value test method is mature and will not be described in detail here.
The calibration and calibration method for the bidirectional zero value comprises the following steps that assuming that the zero value of the outbound signal of the RDSS user machine test system is calibrated, the extra time delay caused by the acquisition and playback of the inbound signal by the portable calibration and calibration device is also calibrated to be zero, and no consideration is given here:

The 1PPS connection of the test system is used for time synchronization; the 10MHz connection ensures that the test system and the portable calibration and calibration device are homologous, and the signal drifts when different sources are different, which is the prior art.
Step 1.2, starting a RDSS user machine test system, selecting a test bidirectional zero-value test item, setting a portable calibration device to start to acquire signals when simulating an RDSS outbound signal to the RDSS user machine, using a 1PPS signal rising edge as a trigger by the portable calibration device, starting to synchronously acquire and store inbound signals of the RDSS user machine at the next 1PPS rising edge moment until the bidirectional zero-value test item is finished, and setting the portable calibration device to finish acquiring the signals; and (3) judging whether the bidirectional zero-value test result of the test system meets the index requirement, if so, entering the next step, if not, replacing the RDSS user machine, repeating the step 1.1 until the bidirectional zero-value test result of the test system meets the index requirement, and calling the inbound signal acquired at the moment as a verified inbound signal.
Step 1.3, disconnecting the connection between the inbound signal of the RDSS subscriber machine and the RDSS subscriber machine test system, connecting the output of the portable calibration and calibration device to the RDSS subscriber machine test system, continuously selecting a test bidirectional zero value test item, setting the portable calibration and calibration device to start replaying the inbound signal acquired in the step 1.1, and synchronously replaying the verified inbound signal by the portable calibration and calibration device at the next rising edge moment of the 1PPS signal until the test item is finished; and comparing whether the two-way zero value test value of the RDSS user machine test system meets the index requirement, so as to judge whether the extra time delay T2 caused by the acquisition and playback of the inbound signal by the portable calibration and calibration device is calibrated to be zero or not, and whether the portable calibration and calibration device works normally or not. If yes, the next step is carried out, if not, the portable calibration device is replaced, the acquisition playback time delay of the portable calibration device is calibrated again, and the steps 1.2 to 1.3 are repeated.
Step 1.4, when calibrating and calibrating the RDSS client test system to be calibrated and calibrated, simultaneously connecting 1PPS output and 10MHz of the RDSS client test system to be calibrated and calibrated to a portable calibration device, connecting the output of the portable calibration device to the RDSS client test system to be calibrated and calibrated, connecting the outbound signal output of the RDSS client test system to be calibrated and calibrated to a signal receiving end of the RDSS client, selecting to run the same bidirectional zero-value test scene, setting the portable calibration device to start playback of verified inbound signals, and synchronously playing back the stored verified inbound signals to the RDSS client test system to be calibrated and calibrated by the portable calibration device at the next rising edge of 1PPS until the test item is finished; and judging whether the bidirectional zero-value test result of the test system is accurate or not by comparing whether the test result of the bidirectional zero-value on the RDSS user machine test system to be calibrated meets the index requirement or not.
