Description

In a medium-low orbit broadband satellite communication system adopting a multi-frequency time division communication system, such as a medium-low orbit communication satellite constellation based on a DVB-RCS2/DVB-S2X air interface protocol or a 4G air interface protocol, the medium-low orbit communication satellite constellation has the characteristics of high communication signal frequency, fast satellite movement and the like, which causes extra difficulty in time and frequency synchronization between satellites and the ground, as shown in fig. 1. On one hand, due to the rapid movement of the satellite, particularly for a communication system working in a Ka frequency band, the Doppler frequency offset and the Doppler change rate are large, when a terminal has large Doppler compensation residue, the difficulty of satellite demodulation is increased, and meanwhile, the interference of an adjacent channel can be caused; on the other hand, in a time division air interface system, users send data to a satellite in a burst mode, which requires high time synchronization precision to avoid data collision between users, however, in medium and low orbit broadband satellite communication, the satellite moves fast, which causes fast time delay change between satellites and the ground, and meanwhile, because the broadband satellite communication rate is high, the protection time slot is small, and the requirement on time synchronization is high.

No effective solution has been proposed to the above problems.

All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The first embodiment is as follows:
in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an embodiment of a method for signal synchronization for satellite communications, wherein the steps illustrated in the flowchart of the figure may be performed in a computer system, such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and wherein, although a logical order is illustrated in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps illustrated or described may be performed in an order different than that illustrated.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a signal synchronization method for satellite communication according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
step S102, acquiring a downlink signal sent by a satellite;
it should be noted that the downlink signal is a downlink signal in the current communication process, and each communication process includes an uplink signal and a downlink signal.
Step S104, calculating a signal offset of the uplink signal of the ground terminal based on the downlink signal and a target parameter, wherein the signal offset includes: the uplink signal is a link signal sent to the satellite by the ground terminal;
the target parameters include: position information of the ground terminal, satellite ephemeris, downlink signal transmission time, and uplink communication time slot.
Step S106, compensating the uplink signal by using the signal offset;
intermediate frequency signal f transmitted by satellite, starting from signal transmitted by satellitezThe frequency of the satellite-borne up-converter is affected by the frequency deviation of the up-conversion frequency source, and the radio frequency signals after frequency conversion are affected by Doppler frequency shift through space transmission. On the ground terminal side, the frequency deviation of the down-conversion frequency source can be superposed into the frequency deviation of the signal, so that the intermediate frequency signal received by the ground terminal is influenced by the up-conversion of the satellite side signal, the down-conversion of the ground terminal side signal and the Doppler frequency difference; the output if signal of the ground terminal needs to compensate for these frequency deviations, and at the same time, the effect of up-conversion on the ground terminal side, the effect of down-conversion on the satellite side signal, and the effect of up-doppler need to be compensated.

As shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of time offset compensation.
After the ground terminal finishes the acquisition of the downlink synchronous mark signal, the mark position is set to a clock timing unit;
the clock timing unit clears the timer at the falling edge of the pulse per second, reads the value of the timer after receiving the capture mark of the baseband and transmits the value to the time delay calculation unit;
setting the synchronization mark specified by the air interface as time t0The receiving time of the synchronization mark measured by the clock timing unit is t1Calculating to obtain the transmission delay t of the lower planetdAnd the satellite-ground transmission time delay t corresponding to uplink transmissionuIf yes, the time delay calculation unit outputs a time delay offset to the sending unit: dt ═ t0-t1+td-tuAnd the delay offset is the offset of the time corresponding to the uplink time slot by taking the local time as the time reference.
Step S108, after the uplink signal is compensated, sending the compensated uplink signal to the satellite, and obtaining the signal offset of the compensated uplink signal calculated by the satellite;
step S110, based on the compensated signal offset of the uplink signal and a target variation, correcting the compensated signal offset of the uplink signal to obtain a target signal offset, where the target variation includes: the method comprises the steps of changing Doppler frequency shift between a first communication process and a second communication process, and changing satellite-to-ground distance between the first communication process and the second communication process, wherein the first communication process is a current communication process between the ground terminal and the satellite, and the second communication process is a communication process before the current communication process.
In the embodiment of the invention, the frequency and time compensation is carried out on the uplink signal through the downlink signal and the target parameter, then the ground terminal corrects the signal offset of the compensated uplink signal by utilizing the signal offset of the compensated uplink signal calculated by the satellite.
In a medium-low orbit broadband communication satellite system with a time division and frequency division air interface system adopted by an uplink, due to the problems that satellite-ground propagation delay is changed fast due to rapid movement of a satellite, Doppler frequency deviation is large and Doppler change rate is large due to high communication frequency, frequency deviation caused by frequency conversion is large due to low accuracy of a satellite frequency source, and the like, the risk of time collision and adjacent channel interference of signals among multiple users of an uplink channel of the satellite exists.
In the embodiment of the application, aiming at the problems, the frequency offset and the time error of the downlink broadcast signal are measured, the Doppler offset and the satellite-to-ground transmission delay information which are obtained through the calculation of the terminal information and the satellite ephemeris are combined, the symmetry characteristic of the frequency offset caused by frequency conversion of the satellite and the terminal is fully utilized, the time frequency is compensated, and the time frequency alignment can be realized when the uplink signal of the terminal reaches the satellite. The method is simple and is particularly suitable for a medium and low orbit broadband satellite communication system based on-satellite processing and forwarding.
In the embodiment of the present invention, step S104 includes the following steps:
step S11, calculating a frequency offset corresponding to the uplink communication slot using the target parameter and the downlink signal;
step S12, calculating a time offset corresponding to the uplink communication slot using the target parameter and the downlink signal;
step S13, determining the frequency offset corresponding to the uplink communication timeslot and the time offset corresponding to the uplink communication timeslot as the signal offset of the uplink signal of the ground terminal.
Step S11 includes the following steps:
step S111, calculating a doppler offset between the ground terminal and the satellite by using the target parameter and the downlink signal, wherein the doppler offset includes: an uplink communication doppler offset between the ground terminal and the satellite, and a downlink communication doppler offset between the ground terminal and the satellite;
step S112, based on the doppler shift between the ground terminal and the satellite, calculates a frequency shift corresponding to the uplink communication timeslot.
Specifically, the terminal receives a downlink broadcast signal of a satellite, measures frequency deviation according to the broadcast signal, calculates doppler frequency shifts between the downlink and uplink satellites and the terminal respectively by combining position information of the ground terminal, satellite ephemeris, downlink signal transmission time and uplink communication time slot time, and calculates frequency compensation quantity of an uplink signal of the ground terminal by combining frequency deviation measurement and doppler estimation.
Step S12 includes the following steps:
step S121, calculating the satellite-ground distance and the propagation delay between the ground terminal and the satellite by using the target parameters and the downlink signals;
step S122, calculating a time offset corresponding to the uplink communication timeslot based on the satellite-to-ground distance and the propagation delay.
Specifically, the satellite broadcasts a pseudo code signal to a terminal by taking the start of each superframe as a time reference, the terminal performs time deviation measurement after receiving the broadcast signal, calculates the satellite-ground distance and the propagation delay by using the position information of the ground terminal, the satellite ephemeris information, the downlink signal sending time and the uplink communication time slot time, and calculates the time compensation quantity of the uplink signal of the ground terminal by combining the time deviation measurement and the propagation delay calculation.
The following exemplifies the specific effects of the present invention: consider a low earth orbit communications satellite with an orbital altitude of 1000km, a satellite uplink operating frequency of 30GHz and a satellite downlink operating frequency of 20 GHz. The frequency sources of the up-down conversion in the satellite all come from the same point frequency source, the point frequency source is a constant temperature crystal oscillator of 100MHz, the frequency accuracy index is superior to 0.1ppm, and the short-term stability is superior to 5e-13(10 s). Meanwhile, the terminal communicating with the satellite also adopts the same constant-temperature crystal oscillator, and the frequency accuracy is better than 0.1 ppm.
Assuming that the elevation angle of the user terminal to the satellite at a certain time of communication is 55 °, the doppler frequency of the downlink is 245 KHz. Meanwhile, the deviation of the point frequency source on the time star is assumed to be df1At 8Hz (@100MHz), the point source offset at ground is df2The central frequency point of the baseband processing of the satellite is f under-2 Hz (@100MHz)zWhen the frequency deviation of the downlink transmission signal of the satellite is 1.2GHz, the frequency deviation is 2.304KHz, and the frequency deviation reaching the receiving port surface of the terminal amounts to 247.304KHz because the doppler frequency deviation of the satellite is 245 KHz. On the terminal side, the frequency offset after down-conversion is 247.880 KHz. As can be seen from the above, the doppler frequency offset caused by the rapid movement of the satellite accounts for the vast majority of the whole frequency offset, if the ground terminal needs to demodulate the signal, the frequency offset needs to be properly compensated, and the remaining frequency offset may cause deterioration to the demodulation performance, and the specific deterioration degree is related to the signal system, the bandwidth, the demodulation algorithm, and the like. The terminal side can estimate the Doppler frequency offset according to the ephemeris of the satellite and the position information of the terminal, so as to compensate before demodulation.
Since the satellite is oriented to multiple users, the Doppler frequency for each user is shiftedLine compensation is difficult and therefore requires the terrestrial terminal to correct the frequency of the transmitted signal in order to compensate for frequency offsets due to doppler and crystal accuracy. In the present invention, the ground terminal estimates a frequency offset from a baseband reception signal so as to compensate for the frequency offset of the uplink. Assuming that the frequency deviation estimation error for the downlink is 100Hz, the actual uplink compensation frequency is df ═ k × (Δ f)2-fdp1)-fdp21.532 (2880+100) -367500 Hz. After the up-conversion of the ground terminal, the up-line transmission of the satellite and the down-conversion of the satellite, the frequency deviation of the satellite intermediate frequency receiving signal is 100Hz, and the frequency deviation has little influence on the communication of the Ka frequency band, namely, the method can well compensate the frequency deviation and simplify the complexity of satellite demodulation.
