Description

Digital correlation system and synchronization method for radio-solar imager
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radio astronomical signal acquisition and processing, in particular to a radio day imager digital receiving related system and a synchronization method.
Background
The solar imager is used for detecting and researching the nature and law of solar activity, revealing the action and influence mechanism of solar activity on the space environment of the sun and the earth, and guaranteeing the living and developing environment of human beings to the greatest extent. To observe the sun by radio imaging, the most common technique is synthetic aperture interference imaging. The synthetic aperture imaging technology is a method for combining a plurality of telescopes with smaller caliber into a large telescope and utilizing the Fourier transformation principle to image correctly. An observation array composed of radio telescope based on synthetic aperture interference imaging generally comprises: the system comprises an antenna front end, a signal transmission line, an analog signal receiving unit, a digital correlation system and an image synthesis processing unit. And the digital correlation system of the solar imager carries out full correlation operation on all channels in a spatial frequency domain to obtain the distribution of the visibility function in the spatial frequency domain. The space brightness distribution and the visibility function are Fourier transform pairs, and the rear-end image processing unit can obtain a solar radio image by carrying out Fourier transform on the visibility function.
In order to obtain accurate solar radio images, synchronization of the total system of the solar imager is important. Synchronization of radio day imager digital correlation systems is embodied in three aspects: firstly, signal acquisition is synchronous. Because the phase of the correlation operation result contains the phase of the visibility function, according to the signal processing correlation theory, the time delay of the time domain corresponds to the phase difference of the frequency domain, so that the strict synchronization of the signal sampling of different channels needs to be ensured; and secondly, delay compensation synchronization. Because the earth rotates, the distance between the antenna and the sun changes along with time, the solar radiation signal has different time delays from the antenna to different moments, so that the phase of the correlation function changes along with time, and a time-varying delay compensation is needed to be added to a digital correlation system and used for counteracting the rapid time variation of the correlation function caused by geometric time delay; thirdly, data storage synchronization. Because the image processing unit at the back end needs to recalibrate the data according to the time information acquired by the data to obtain an accurate sun image, the data stored by the digital correlation system needs to contain accurate time information.
In practical engineering, a digital correlation system often has a plurality of modules, and different modules have different requirements on synchronization precision, so that a high-efficiency and flexible time synchronization method is needed.

The display control unit module 20 of the present embodiment is further configured to continuously monitor the absolute time information, and issue a delay compensation parameter to the signal acquisition processing module 30 before reaching the start time. Meanwhile, the display control unit module 20 is further configured to continuously monitor the absolute time information and update the delay compensation parameter when reaching a preset time point.
In this embodiment, the signal acquisition processing module 30 is further configured to store the delay compensation parameter in a predetermined period of time in a ping-pong buffer manner.

As shown in fig. 2, the signal acquisition processing module 30 of the present embodiment includes a time resolution module 301, a gigabit network interface module 302, a digital-to-analog conversion module 303, a fourier transform module 304, a delay compensation module 305, a complex correlation module 306, a data encapsulation module 307, and a Mo Zhaowang interface module 308.
The digital-to-analog conversion module 303 is configured to perform digital-to-analog conversion on the received signal; the fourier transform module 304 is configured to perform fourier transform operation on the digital-to-analog converted data; the time analysis module 301 is configured to analyze the second pulse signal and the UART protocol packet sent by the time service signal receiving module, so as to obtain absolute time information; the delay compensation module 305 is configured to determine corresponding delay compensation parameters according to the absolute time information, perform delay compensation on the signal acquisition channel corresponding to the signal acquisition processing module 30 by using the corresponding delay compensation parameters, and store the delay compensation parameters in a ping-pong buffer manner; the complex correlation module 306 is configured to perform pairwise complex correlation operation on the input data; the data encapsulation module 307 is configured to encapsulate output data of the complex correlation module and current time information according to a preset format, the gigabit network interface module 302 is configured to implement a gigabit network communication protocol to communicate with the display control unit module 20, and the Mo Zhaowang interface module 308 is configured to implement a gigabit network protocol to communicate with the storage server module 20.
In this embodiment, the absolute time information is specifically transmitted by means of a serial UART protocol data packet, and the signal acquisition processing module 30 needs to analyze after receiving the UART protocol data packet, and then calculates the absolute time information according to the second pulse signal and the data obtained by analysis. The calculation is performed according to the second pulse signal and the UART protocol data packet so as to obtain absolute time information, and a timing chart of the accurate timing is shown in fig. 3. The 1PPS second pulse signal is triggered once a second and serves to indicate the time of the whole second, which is indicated by the rising edge of the second pulse. The time parsing module 301 also receives the serial data packet output by the time service signal receiving module 10 to indicate time information, and because the UART protocol communication transmission has delay, in order to accurately obtain the time information, the following method is adopted in this embodiment:
1) When receiving the rising edge of the second pulse, the time resolution module 301 adds 1s to the current time, so as to ensure the time precision;
2) When a serial port data packet is received, directly assigning the resolved absolute time information to the module time;

The embodiment adopts the method to perform time analysis processing, so that the time precision can reach nanosecond level, no accumulated error exists, and the time synchronization requirement of a radio day imager digital correlation system is well met.
The display control unit module 20 is further configured to continuously monitor absolute time information, and when a set stop time is reached, issue a stop instruction to the signal acquisition processing module 30 to stop the system operation, and simultaneously stop updating the delay compensation parameter of the system; the signal acquisition processing module 30 is further configured to reset after completing the transmission of the current data packet after receiving the stop instruction. In other words, the display control unit module 20 is used for controlling the start, stop and close of the digital related system of the solar imager, observing the running state and running result of the system, and calculating and updating the delay compensation parameters in real time.
Based on the radio day imager digital correlation system, the specific flow of the system during operation comprises:
step S1: starting a radio-day imager digital correlation system, waiting for the time service signal receiving module 10 to enter a locking state, outputting time information by the time service signal receiving module 10 through an NTP interface and an RS232 interface after entering the locking state, and simultaneously outputting a 1PPS second pulse signal and a reference time frequency signal with fixed frequency.
Step S2: the clock and trigger signal distribution module 50 generates a sampling clock of the signal acquisition processing module 30 according to the reference time-frequency signal, and distributes the sampling clock into multiple channels to be output to each board of the signal acquisition processing module 30.
Step S3: the display control unit module 20 and the storage server module 40 perform NTP time calibration with the time service signal receiving module 10.
Step S4: the start time, stop time, operation mode and other operation parameters of the system are set on the display control unit module 20.
Step S5: the display control unit module 20 issues working parameters and starting instructions of the system to the signal acquisition processing module 30 and the storage server module 40 through the gigabit network interface. It should be noted that: the delay compensation parameters and various instructions described above must be issued some time before the set system start-up time (e.g., the set start-up time is 8:00, then the delay compensation parameters and instructions are issued at 7: 58).
Step S6: the display and control unit module 20 continues to monitor the system NTP time, starts calculating 1 minute before the start-up time (e.g., start-up time is 8:00, then 7: 59), and issues the system start-up followed by delay compensation ping buffer data. Because of the delay of the gigabit network packet transmission, the update interval of the delay compensation parameters is very short (for example, the delay compensation parameters are updated once in 1 ms), so as to ensure the system accuracy, the ping-pong caches store the compensation parameters for a period of time, and so as to simplify the design complexity of the system software and combine the cache size of the signal acquisition and processing module 30, in this embodiment, the ping-pong caches store the compensation parameters for 30 seconds.
Step S7: the signal acquisition processing module 30 starts signal synchronous acquisition after receiving the starting instruction, receives the time information of the 1PPS second pulse and the RS232 interface in real time, analyzes the time information of the UART format, and accurately acquires absolute time information by combining the 1PPS second pulse and the UART time information.
Step S8: the display control unit module 20 monitors the system NTP time in real time, and starts updating the pong buffer of the delay compensation parameter when the system set start time is reached. The storage server module 40 monitors the NTP time of the system in real time, and the storage server module 40 starts the operation of storing data when the start time set by the system is reached. The signal acquisition processing module 30 monitors the acquired time information in real time, and starts to receive the periodic working pulse signal when the starting time set by the system is reached.
Step S9: the signal acquisition processing module 30 monitors the periodic working pulse signal in real time, when the first high pulse is received, the signal acquisition processing module 30 records and stores the time information at the moment, and calculates the initial read address of the ping-pong buffer with delay parameters by using the time information (for example, each ping-pong buffer stores 30s of data, each address stores 1ms of delay compensation parameter, the system receives the time information corresponding to the first high pulse as 8 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds and 15 milliseconds, and the initial read address is 15); meanwhile, the signal acquisition processing module 30 starts an operation flow, including signal FFT (fourier transform) operation, phase compensation, bit truncation, complex correlation, and integral operation, and parameters of the phase compensation are updated by the display control unit module 20 in real time.
Step S10: the display control unit module 20 continuously monitors the system NTP time in real time, periodically calculates and transmits delay compensation parameters to the ping-pong buffer or ping-pong buffer of the signal acquisition processing module 30 according to the system NTP time (for example, the starting time of the system is 8:00, the ping-pong buffers each store 30s of buffer data, then the display control calculates and transmits the ping-pong buffer data at 8 time 0 minutes and 0 seconds, calculates and transmits the ping-pong buffer data at 8 time 0 minutes and 30 seconds, calculates and transmits the ping-pong buffer data at 8 time 1 minutes and 30 seconds, and then each minute circulates with the buffer data); the storage server module 40 continuously monitors the system NTP time in real time, and saves the processing result of the signal acquisition processing module 30, wherein the stored file name contains time information.
Step S11: the display control unit module 20 continuously monitors the NTP time of the system, and when the set system stop time is reached, the display control unit module 20 sends a stop instruction to the signal acquisition processing module 30, and stops updating the delay compensation parameter.
Step S12: after receiving the stop instruction, the signal acquisition processing module 30 resets the system after completing the transmission of the current tera-net data packet.
Step S13: after the storage server module reaches the system stop time, the data of the Mo Zhaowang interface is monitored, and after a certain period of time does not have new data, the operation of storing the data is stopped, and meanwhile, the system running information is written into a file storage disk.
