Description

Method and device for evaluating pointing mismatch of antenna of on-orbit terahertz detector
Technical Field
The invention relates to an evaluation method for antenna pointing mismatch of an on-orbit terahertz detector, and also relates to a corresponding evaluation device, belonging to the technical field of satellite remote sensing.
Background
When the effective load carried by the remote sensing satellite of the static orbit works in the orbit, the satellite body and the load can generate thermal deformation. According to the on-orbit data analysis of the optical star loads of the U.S. GOES series satellite and the Chinese Fengyun A star, the deformation quantity is not negligible for remote sensing. The change of the optical sight line caused by deformation can reach 1000 micro-arc magnitude, and the on-orbit observation pointing accuracy of the remote sensing load and the positioning accuracy of the remote sensing data are directly influenced.
For an on-orbit terahertz detector, the antenna can be influenced by the outside after being normally unfolded. Due to the change of solar illumination on the in-orbit terahertz detector, the satellite platform and the antenna can deform in orbit, the parameters such as the antenna pointing direction, the antenna directional diagram and the like of the terahertz detector obviously deviate from the original design and ground measurement parameters due to thermal deformation, and the positioning and registration accuracy of detection data can be directly influenced due to the change of the equivalent electric axis of the in-orbit antenna caused by the deformation.
Since the deformation quantity is closely related to time (the motion between the satellite and the sun), the deformation quantity is not a stable deviation and shows a typical time-varying characteristic. The thermal deformation deviations need to be monitored, evaluated and corrected continuously. A mathematical model capable of accurately describing the thermal deformation deviation of the on-orbit terahertz detector is established, and is the basis and key for solving the time-varying deviation.
Because the static track on-orbit terahertz detector has large volume, complex structure, and more components and influencing factors which generate thermal deformation, the modeling and solving of the thermal deformation deviation of the on-orbit terahertz detector are complex, and the technical difficulty is high.
At present, the thermal deformation research in the field of geostationary orbit satellites at home and abroad mainly focuses on the research on the in-orbit thermal deformation rule of the optical remote sensing load consisting of the optical scanning mirror. For satellite-borne optical imaging loads, an optical target can be selected from an optical remote sensing image, and deviation can be evaluated in an image matching mode.
However, for the terahertz microwave detection type load, the obtained detection data is target object radiation information, not a directly visualized optical image, and therefore, the deviation estimation cannot be performed by an image matching method. In addition, the overall dimension of the terahertz detection antenna is generally larger than that of a common optical load, and the exposed surface of an antenna system is more than that of the common optical load, so that the comprehensive deformation degree of the terahertz detection antenna is larger than that of the common optical load, and the influence factors are more complex.

Detailed Description
The technical contents of the invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
For convenience of understanding, an interferometric atmospheric vertical detector (abbreviated as a detector or GIIRS) on a wind cloud star a is taken as an example to simply illustrate the operation of the detector. The main function of the detector is to realize the vertical structure observation of the atmospheric temperature and humidity parameters. On a static orbit of the earth, the detector performs infrared spectrum distribution detection on a required area, provides input data for numerical weather forecast, provides detection service for disastrous weather monitoring and atmospheric chemical components, and realizes the observation of visible light on cloud. During detection, cold space background sampling is performed at predetermined time intervals, followed by black body scaling and star sensitivity. The task content of the known area observation comprises cold space calibration, black body calibration, star sensitivity and area detection. In the process of regional observation, 1 cold space calibration, 1 black body calibration, 1 star sensitivity at 15 positions (5 stars each of which is observed at 3 positions) and regional detection are set to be carried out every 15 minutes.
According to the demand of weather forecast, the GIIRS area survey is currently mainly to observe clear sky. Firstly, the longitude and latitude of an area needing to be observed are converted into row and column numbers in a nominal grid, so that each clear sky point is converted into a point represented by the row and column numbers. Then, screening out all grid points with cloud cover values smaller than the specified clear sky coefficient, namely, screening out all points represented by row and column numbers. And after clear sky screening, segmenting clear sky grids according to the detector residence point range (namely the size of the detector area array), and counting the clear sky quantity in each residence point range. The residence point with a high clear-to-air ratio is preferably selected, for example, the ratio is 100% or 90%. The preferred residence points are merged (distributed residence) on the principle of 20 residence points per 15 minute time period. For more than 20 laterally consecutive dwell points, a split is required. And calculating the number of the resident points according to the starting and stopping column numbers of the continuous resident points, and performing up-compensation on less than 20 resident points. And in each 15-minute time period, arranging the continuous residence points into a task, and calculating the task time according to the number of the residence points. Meanwhile, the running time of each task of cold space scaling, black body scaling and star sensitivity as well as the fast pointing and command interval time are accurately calculated. Therefore, each task is reasonably arranged in time to generate a task schedule, and an instruction is generated according to the task schedule and is injected into the satellite.
The main thought of the thermal deformation time-varying mathematical model provided by the embodiment of the invention is as follows: observing the radio star by using a terahertz detector with the radio star as a reference, and acquiring the difference between the E surface and the H surface of the main lobe of the actual directional diagram of the detection antenna and the E surface and the H surface of the ideal design directional diagram according to the actual measurement data; by constructing a mathematical relationship between the deviation of a main lobe directional diagram of the antenna of the terahertz detector and the equivalent detection direction of the load in the three-dimensional space, the equivalent deviation of the equivalent thermal deformation effect of the antenna of the terahertz detector in the three-dimensional space can be described; and finally, by observing a plurality of groups of radio satellite data and taking equivalent deviation in a thermal deformation three-dimensional space as an unknown quantity, a corresponding thermal deformation deviation equation set can be constructed, and the solution of the antenna pointing mismatch can be realized through optimal solution.
The antenna of the on-orbit terahertz detector generally comprises an antenna main reflecting surface, a multi-stage auxiliary reflecting surface, an antenna feed source, various rotating parts and the like, and the detector antenna comprises more components, so that the thermal deformation influence factors are very complex. After the satellite is in orbit, if no engineering feasible method is available, the deviation of the direction of the antenna of the detector cannot be obtained with high precision.
Based on an identifiable reference target space position (astronomical ephemeris), a directional offset model of the terahertz detection antenna thermal deformation effect in a three-dimensional space is directly constructed and solved, so that the directional offset of the terahertz detection antenna can be effectively identified, and the output antenna directional offset can be directly applied to geographic positioning of terahertz detection data.
The invention utilizes the on-orbit terahertz detector to carry out discrete distributed observation data of the radio star in two directions of the main surface (E surface and H surface) of the antenna, thereby calculating the quantitative difference between the ideal phase of the radio star in an ideal antenna directional diagram and the discrete phase in an actual on-orbit observation directional diagram. And then, according to an equivalent deviation influence model of the thermal deformation of the terahertz detection antenna on a three-dimensional space, correlating the ideal phase with the actual phase to form the difference of discrete directional diagrams observed by the same radio star, and further constructing a corresponding deviation equation. Finally, under a certain optimization standard, the deviation equation set is solved in a numerical mode, and the deviation amount of the antenna pointing to each direction in the three-dimensional space can be obtained.
The following describes in detail an evaluation method for the pointing mismatch of the antenna of the on-orbit terahertz detector provided by the present invention with reference to fig. 1 to 4. In the following steps, M, K, M, N, and the like are positive integers.
A plurality of frequency bands to be evaluated (detection frequency bands) and time periods to be evaluated (detection time periods) of the thermal deformation amount are preset. In practical application, a frequency band to be evaluated is selected from a band list of a load detection band according to application requirements, and then mismatch evaluation is performed on a certain specific frequency band. If the multiple frequency bands need to be evaluated, the single frequency band is evaluated one by one, and then the results of the multiple frequency bands are summarized and analyzed to obtain the relative difference among the multiple frequency bands. For the evaluation time period, the evaluation time period is usually set in a relatively fixed time interval manner to improve the convenience of the design of the observation scheme. The time interval duration of the evaluation period is mainly determined by the minimum evaluation interval of the application demand research target, for example, the evaluation period can be selected at intervals of 15 minutes and half an hour. Whether the spectral bands are overlapped or not is determined by the payload design spectral bands, and the overlapping is not generally carried out. However, whether or not the spectral bands overlap, the assessment can be performed using the present method. And selecting a certain number of radio stars in each corresponding frequency band and corresponding time period, and establishing a corresponding relation of frequency band-time period-radio stars.
It is assumed that the number of the radio satellites observed at each time is N in each frequency band-time period-radio satellite correspondence. Namely, for a detection frequency band, in a detection time period corresponding to the detection frequency band, the selected N radio stars are observed.
As shown in fig. 4, the method for evaluating the pointing mismatch of the antenna of the on-orbit terahertz detector provided by the invention mainly comprises the following steps: firstly, the radio star has an ideal position in the directional diagram of the ideal terahertz detection antenna, and the actual observation position deviates from the ideal position due to the thermal deformation effect, and the deviation can be described by two orthogonal coordinates. Then, by using the influence relation of the thermal deformation effect on the position, an influence model of the thermal deformation deviation on the position deviation in the antenna directional diagram can be abstracted and established. And finally, correlating the deviation in actual detection with the deviation in the model to complete the construction of the mathematical model of the antenna thermal deformation deviation equation. The concrete description is as follows:
s1: and performing resident observation around each radio star and recording observation data.
In actual observation, it is assumed that N radio stars are observed within a specific detection frequency band and detection time period. For each radio star, the k-th radio star is not usedFor example (k ═ 1,2, …, N), assume that at the central instant T of the acquisition period kC The ideal radio star position is S k With S k Centering, the main beam of the antenna array is directed to the radio satellite S k The antenna E, H can correspond to a unique observation direction in two directions, which is not marked as (E) kC ,H kC ). As shown in fig. 1, the main beam of the antenna array 2 is directed to the radio star 1.
To observe the azimuth (E) kC ,H kC ) And step-by-step resident pointing design of the antenna orientation is carried out at fixed intervals delta alpha in two directions E, H of the antenna as a reference center, and grid coverage type step-by-step resident observation is carried out around the center of an ideal radio star. Assuming that the parking positions are divided into 2K +1 in the direction E, H, a mesh parking grid of (2K +1) rows and (2K +1) columns is formed (see fig. 1), and M ═ 2K +1 is performed in total 2 Sub-step dwell observation. For example, at the first row and first column, the design's dwell observation azimuth is (DE) 1,1 ,DH 1,1 ) Can be expressed as
DE 1,1 =E kC -KΔα,DH 1,1 =H kC -KΔα;
At row i and column j, the designed dwell observation azimuth is (DE) i,j ,DH i,j ) Wherein
DE i,j =E kC +(i-1-K)Δα,
DH i,j =H kC +(i-1-K)Δα,
(i ═ 1,2, …, K; j ═ 1,2, …, K), and a detailed schematic diagram is shown in fig. 1.
For convenience of description, the numbering sequence (i, j) of the 2-dimensional space residence is described by a 1-dimensional serial number m, wherein the relation between m and the step residence observation row number is (i-1) × (2K +1) + j.
Therefore, the designed dwell observation azimuth angle at ith row and jth column is (DE) i,j ,DH i,j ) Equivalently, the designed dwell observation azimuth at the mth dwell position is (DE) m ,DH m ) (ii) a Further for more accurate representation, the method is used for designing an observer of the kth star at the mth dwell positionAzimuth angle, which is denoted as (DE) k,m ,DH k,m )。
Similarly, sequentially observing the N radio stars, and sequentially recording original radiation digital signal values, namely original DN values, of loads when the radio stars are observed; and simultaneously recording the number of the radio satellite, the observation time, the observation direction, and the satellite orbit position and attitude at the corresponding time.
S2: and according to the geometric information of the satellite, the radio star and the antenna, sequentially calculating the ideal target position of the radio star in the antenna coordinate system when the radio star resides in each step.
For the observation result in step S1, the same radio star S is subjected to observation for one observation period k In total, M observations were made, where M is (2K +1) 2 . Multiple observations over a period of time, specifically m observations residing step by step. In a complete experiment, the frequency band is fixed.
Because the radio satellites are respectively positioned at different azimuths of the antenna at different observation moments and the attitude and orbit states of the satellite are changed at the moments, the ideal target azimuth (E) of the radio satellites relative to the main beam of the terahertz detection antenna at the mth resident observation center moment needs to be calculated under the same antenna space reference condition under the inertial system k,m ,H k,m )。
According to space information such as the observation time, the satellite attitude, the satellite position and the satellite velocity of the radio satellite, the ideal target azimuth (E) can be calculated based on the design parameters of the antenna and the antenna pointing data k,m ,H k,m ). The method mainly comprises the following steps:
1) at the mth resident observation center time T m The satellite position coordinate P at the moment can be obtained according to the telemetering information downloaded by the satellite and the terahertz detector m Attitude angle Att m (ii) a Meanwhile, according to the star motion rule, the star position coordinate S can be obtained km
For the convenience of calculation, the position coordinates are all the international universal geocentric inertial coordinate system-J2000-ECI coordinate system.

2) From the satellite position coordinates P m And attitude angle Att m An ideal target vector V under the inertial system can be obtained SC2Star,m Target vector V converted to antenna coordinate system ante,m
At the mth resident observation center time T m Under inertial system, pointing from satellite to star S k Can be represented as V SC2Star,m =S km -P m
The definition of the antenna coordinate system can be described as that the main beam direction of the ideal antenna is the + Z-axis direction, the E-plane direction is the + X-axis direction, and the H-plane direction is the + Y-axis direction. Fig. 2 shows the relationship of the inertial system to the antenna coordinate system.
3) According to the derivation of steps 1) and 2), from V ante,m The observed azimuth angles (theta) of a group of E, H directions can be uniquely determined E,mH,m ) I.e. is T m The main beam ideal observation azimuth angle at the moment.
4) Comprehensively utilizing the ideal observation azimuth angle (E) of the radio satellite at the central moment of the detection period kC ,H kC ) Azimuth of observation (DE) designed for step-wise dwell observation m ,DH m ) And the main beam ideal observation azimuth angle (theta) calculated at the time of actual observation E,mH,m ) Calculating the ideal target direction (E) of the radio satellite relative to the main beam of the terahertz detection antenna at the mth resident observation center moment k,m ,H k,m ) Specifically, it can be expressed as:
E k,m =DE mE,m -E kC
H k,m =DH mH,m -H kC

For the same star, with the antenna design zero phase as a reference, the DN value (digital signal formed by the response of the instrument to the radiation of the radio star and capable of representing the radiation signal intensity) of the actually measured radio star acquired by the step-by-step residence of M times and the observation direction (E) of the ideal target of the antenna obtained in the step S2 are compared k,m ,H k,m ) One by one, discrete sampling antenna patterns formed by M times of stepped resident mesh coverage observation can be quantitatively described (see fig. 3). FIG. 3 is a view of the observation direction (E) k,m ,H k,m ) And the measured digital signals of the radiation response of the planets are formed in a one-to-one correspondence mode.
32) And fitting to obtain an actually measured antenna directional diagram according to the discrete sampling antenna directional diagram.
According to the discrete sampling antenna directional diagram of the radio stars and the overall characteristics of the curved surface of the antenna directional diagram, the basic type of the fitted curved surface can be determined, then, according to a fitting function solving method, the optimal fitting coefficient is solved, and the actually measured antenna directional diagram based on actual detection data can be obtained.
