Description

Ground debugging method for satellite-borne laser communication equipment
Technical Field
The invention relates to a laser communication technology, in particular to a ground debugging method for satellite-borne laser communication equipment.
Background
With the continuous development of space resources, the inter-satellite and satellite-ground communication network gradually becomes an important component in the global communication network. The carrier waves adopted for realizing the satellite-borne communication comprise microwave and light waves, the traffic of images, videos and the like is continuously increased along with the more frequent space activities, and short boards with insufficient microwave communication transmission capacity are increasingly highlighted. The laser communication has the advantages of high transmission rate, small volume, low power consumption, light weight, good confidentiality and strong anti-interference capability, and the advantages of the laser communication make the laser communication very suitable for carrying a satellite platform, particularly the application on the small satellite platform, and meanwhile, the laser communication has wide application prospect. With the rapid development of commercial aerospace in recent years, satellite-borne laser communication attracts more and more eyes, so that satellite-borne optical communication has become one of the key development directions of satellite communication.
With the wide application of the satellite-borne laser communication equipment in the aerospace field, the batch and low cost become development trends, and new requirements are provided for the debugging speed and the universality of the satellite-borne laser communication equipment. The satellite-borne laser communication system generally comprises light paths such as a signal receiving light path, a fine tracking light path, a signal transmitting light path, a beacon transmitting light path, a coarse tracking light path and the like, and the light paths are adjusted to be parallel on the ground, so that the light paths are adjusted to the optimal imaging effect to ensure that the equipment can finish capturing, tracking and aligning with other equipment after entering a preset track and realize communication. Because the outer space is in a vacuum environment and the ground debugging is in a normal-pressure environment, certain measures are required to compensate the influence of the pressure intensity during the ground debugging.
At present, compensation methods adopted by satellite-borne laser communication equipment mainly include two types: 1. adding a compensating mirror for compensation, namely adding a designed compensating mirror in front of the equipment for debugging during ground debugging, and taking down the compensating mirror after the debugging is finished under normal pressure, wherein the equipment meets the use condition of optimal image quality under vacuum; 2. and (3) vacuum defocusing compensation, namely after the focus is adjusted under normal pressure, moving the detector or the optical fiber by a corresponding distance according to the difference between the positions of the vacuum focus and the normal pressure focus simulated by software, wherein the equipment meets the use condition of the best image quality under vacuum at the moment. The scheme 1 is complex to debug, the compensation mirror needs additional tooling, additional variables are added by adding the compensation mirror, one compensation mirror is only suitable for one optical path, different compensation mirrors are needed for different optical paths, the debugging time is long, and the additional cost of the compensation mirror is high; the scheme 2 cannot ensure that the defocusing moves completely along the axial direction, and can introduce eccentricity and inclination errors, so that the method cannot be quantized, and has poor reliability and low operability.
