Description

Baseband data pulse searching method and system based on GPU
Technical Field
The invention relates to the astronomical field, in particular to a baseband data pulse searching method and system based on a Graphic Processing Unit (GPU).
Background
A Fast Radio Burst (FRB) is a Radio pulse signal that releases a very large amount of energy for a duration on the order of milliseconds. By 2023, 5 months, a total of 118 fast radio storms were detected. FRB can help us to better understand evolution history in universe, reveal internal mechanism of high-energy celestial phenomena such as star explosion, black hole combination, etc., and promote the development of celestial physics. For example, fast radiostorms can also be used to verify einstein's equivalence principle by comparing the time delays when photons of different energies emitted simultaneously reach an observer. However, there are still many undirected puzzles in the field of FRB research, such as the internal structure of FRB, the radiation mechanism and origin, etc.
The radio pulse signals in the universe are received by the telescope on the ground after passing through the interstellar medium, and the interstellar medium can influence the electromagnetic wave propagation group velocity of the pulse signals, so that the pulse signals are dispersive. Chromatic dispersion is embodied in the fact that the low frequency part of the pulse signal arrives at a delay from the high frequency part. The dispersion phenomenon can lead to pulse phase disorder, pulse signal profile distortion, pulse amplitude weakening and signal-to-noise ratio reduction, and is difficult to be searched and identified. It is necessary to restore the true pulse signal by the achromatic process in the course of performing the pulse search. The classical fast radio storm search flow is: firstly, preprocessing observation data, such as channel division, interference elimination and the like; secondly, carrying out achromatizing treatment on the frequency channel data to eliminate time delay caused by interstellar media; thirdly, carrying out single pulse search on the signals to obtain some candidates; and finally, screening and verifying the candidate.
There are some narrow pulses in FRB search studies that are difficult to find, and their signal-to-noise ratio is very low and therefore time resolution requirements are also higher. Because pulse width is a fundamental observation of the radiation process, and has important implications for determining burst energy, narrow pulse searching is critical for the exploration of puzzles such as fast-shot storm radiation mechanisms. Majid et al searched for a narrow pulse of 100ns width in baseband data with a time resolution of 62.5ns, while FAST, due to the data time resolution 98us constraint, searched for the narrowest pulse of FRB121102 is 0.4ms. But the time resolution of FAST baseband data is 1ns, and if high time resolution pulse searching is performed on the FAST baseband data, new narrow pulses are expected to be searched.
The high time resolution pulse search can improve the discovery efficiency and accuracy of pulse signals, but at the same time means the increase of data volume and calculation volume. The achromatizing process in the pulse search process requires a large number of floating point calculations, and the improvement of time resolution also means the improvement of the calculation time and the requirement of hardware resources. So for huge baseband data, data processing speed and memory space are one of the main obstacles to achieving high time resolution pulse search.

The following describes specific embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating and illustrating the invention, are not intended to limit the invention.
As shown in fig. 1 to 12, the method and the system for searching baseband data pulses based on the GPU of the present invention realize 1ns high time resolution pulse searching and positioning of huge baseband data by using simple linear calculation in the time domain. The method can realize short pulse search with the pulse width reaching the limit of 10ns for the baseband data, screen out effective data fragments with pulse signals, exclude data without signals and reduce the data volume of subsequent data processing. And the algorithm is accelerated in parallel on the graphic processor, so that the algorithm calculation is real-time, and the data storage and processing pressure of pulse search can be reduced simultaneously from two aspects of calculation speed and data quantity.
In the invention, the matched filtering is a linear filter, and the matched filtering can obtain the output with the highest signal to noise ratio. Assume that there is a certain segment of the input signal g (t) in the time domain:
g(t)=s(t)+n(t)
wherein s (t) represents the true pure signal portion; n (t) represents the noise part of the signal mixture, the power spectral density is. Designing a matched filter as shown in FIG. 1, passing the input signal through the matched filterThe wave device achieves the aim of suppressing noise and highlighting signals, so that the signal output with the highest signal-to-noise ratio is obtained.
Assuming that the impulse response function of the filter is H (t), the frequency domain transfer function is H (f), and the output signal g is obtained after the filter 0 (t) is the convolution of the input signal g (t) with the filter impulse response function h (t):
according to the convolution theorem, the convolution of a function in the time domain is equivalent to the product in the frequency domain, so that a signal part in an input signal is output as follows after passing through a filter:
the output power of the noise portion is:
at a certain sampling time t 0 The signal-to-noise ratio SNR of the corresponding output signal can be expressed as the ratio of the signal part power PS to the noise part power PN:
according to the Cauchy-Schvalz inequality, there is:
if and only ifI.e. +.>The inequality is equal to the sign of the signal to noise ratio maximum. Matched filterThe impulse response of (c) corresponds to the conjugate of the signal s (t) with a certain delay, so that the process of matching filtering the signal can be understood as the cross-correlation calculation of the signal. In the above formula: the input signal is g (t), s (t) represents the true pure signal part; n (t) represents the noise part of the signal mixture, the power spectral density isThe impulse response function of the filter is H (t), the frequency domain transfer function is H (f), and the output signal is g 0 (t), k is a constant,for a particular moment. Where the frequency domain of all parameters is denoted by capital letters and f denotes frequency.
The correlation calculation of signals is divided into autocorrelation and cross correlation, and the correlation calculation of two signals can be understood as calculating the similarity degree of two signals at a certain moment. The principle of matched filtering is applied to radio astronomical baseband data processing, so that narrow pulse signal searching is realized.
According to the characteristics of the real radio astronomical pulse signal, a pulse signal with fixed dispersion in a certain frequency range is simulated and generated as a matched filter.
The matched source slides on the original baseband data in 1ns step size to make a cross correlation calculation, and as shown in fig. 2, the correlation value of the matched filter slid to a certain position is equivalent to the overlapping area of the two signals. When the matched filter is overlapped with the hidden pulse signal part in the baseband data, the maximum value of the cross-correlation calculation result is obtained, and the cross-correlation calculation result of the noise part in the sliding correlation process is far smaller than the result of the pulse signal part, so that the mixed noise component in the baseband data is restrained, the hidden real signal part is highlighted, and the aim of searching and positioning the pulse signal is fulfilled. The specific flow of the method for searching the narrow pulse signal by matched filtering is shown in fig. 3, and the baseband data pulse searching method based on the GPU of the invention specifically comprises the following steps:
step S1: simulating to generate a dispersion pulse signal as a matched filter;
step S2: performing sliding cross-correlation filtering on the matched filter and the baseband data;
step S3: screening effective data with pulse signal candidates through the matching result, if the matching result does not have a single pulse, indicating that the data file does not have a pulse signal, and marking the data file as an invalid data file. If the matching result has single pulse, indicating that a pulse candidate exists in the data file, and marking the data file as a valid data file;
step S4: analyzing the matching result of the effective data file to obtain the corresponding position of the pulse signal in the baseband data file;
step S5: only intercepting data segments near the pulse position as pulse candidate data;
step S6: and checking and screening the pulse candidate data.
Fig. 4 shows a specific flow of matched filter generation. According to the coherent achromatism principle, a pulse signal with center frequency vc, frequency bandwidth vb, sampling rate 1ns, pulse signal period T, dispersion value dm, pulse width wt and pulse height q is simulated. Wherein the pulse period T cannot be smaller thanMaximum value of time delay within frequency bandwidth, i.e. +.>
The generation method of the matched filter comprises the following steps:
1) Simulating to generate a random pulse signal with pulse width of wt and pulse height of q;
2) Performing Fourier transform on the pulse signal, and transforming the signal from a time domain to a frequency domain;
3) Simulation generates one atA dispersion delay chirp function having a fixed dispersion value dm within the frequency bandwidth;
4) Multiplying the frequency domain pulse signal with a dispersion delay chirp function to obtain a pulse signal with superimposed dispersion delay;
5) And performing inverse Fourier transform on the frequency domain dispersion pulse signals to obtain time domain dispersion pulse signals.
In the cross-correlation filtering process, the matched filter and the baseband data of the original signal are subjected to sliding cross-correlation calculation to realize pulse searching, and each sliding step length is 1ns.
If a pulse signal is present in the baseband data, the cross-correlation calculation result is maximized when the matched filter is overlapped with the pulse signal in the baseband data, so that a prominent pulse can be seen in the resulting matched filter result.
If no pulse signal is present in the baseband data, no prominent pulse can be seen in the resulting match result graph. And screening out effective baseband data fragments with pulse signals by judging whether the matched filtering result has pulses or not. In the process of realizing the cross-correlation calculation of the matched filter and the baseband data, the baseband data has the characteristic of large data volume, so the problem of insufficient memory can be encountered. The problem of insufficient memory is solved by splitting the matched filter and the baseband data respectively and then performing cross-correlation calculation in batches.
The cross-correlation calculation is specifically as follows:
where f (t) and g (t) represent two signals to be cross-correlated to calculate a degree of similarity, τ represents a time offset.
For example, the calculation example:
fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of cross-correlation calculation. The nature of the cross-correlation calculation is a multiple point multiplication addition operation, which is a linear calculation. The cross-correlation calculation for two one-dimensional arrays can be decomposed into the result of multiplying each number of correlation kernels with the original data and then adding. The ith row is obtained by multiplying the ith number in the core by the data template, and the result of the ith row needs to be shifted forward by the ith number. The final correlation result of the Valid pattern is the result of adding the circled data in fig. 5 in the vertical direction. For example, the first value in the result array of FIG. 5 is
Fig. 6 is a split view of a matched filter. When the related nucleus is split, the length is L f Correlation kernel of length L data Performing cross-correlation calculation of valid mode on the original data template of (2), and obtaining a total result with length of L result =L data -L f +1。
Splitting the related cores into n parts, wherein the length L of each part of related cores is equal to that of each other f_b Is L f And/n. For the relevant results of the ith part of relevant kernel, only intercept the [ i ] L of the result array f_b : i*L f_b +L result ]The partial data was used as an effective batch result. By aligning and adding each effective batch result, a complete undivided result L is obtained result
FIG. 7 is a split view of a data template. Splitting the original data template, wherein the splitting is assumed to be m parts, and the length of each small part of data is L d_b . To ensure the integrity of the result after splitting, every minute of data must overlap end to end (L f -1) length. As shown in fig. 7, the complete undivided result is finally obtained by stitching the correlation results of each small piece of data. It is noted that the data length of the original data template needs to be not smaller than the data length of the relevant core, both of which are split.
And verifying the feasibility of searching the positioning pulse:
the matched filtering method is applied to FRB121102-210 baseband data processing, and the feasibility of searching pulse signals by the matched filtering method is verified through a traditional coherent dispersion elimination algorithm. The simulation generates a pulse signal with a center frequency vc of 1325MHz, a frequency bandwidth vb of 10MHz, a sampling rate fs of 1ns, a pulse signal period T of 20.2ms, a dispersion value dm of 565.1, a pulse width of 10ns and a pulse height of 1. Fig. 8 is a matched filter generated by simulation. Fig. 9 is a graph of the matched filter results, and it can be seen that there is a significant single pulse occurrence. And positioning the position x of the pulse in the matching result, and intercepting data with the length of 0.3s near the position x of the baseband data to perform coherent achromatizing processing. Fig. 10 is a time-frequency diagram of the achromatic result, and it can be seen that there is a significant pulse signal in the frequency range of 1500-1300 MHz. The method for searching the baseband data pulse based on the GPU can accurately search out the hidden pulse signals in the FRB121102-210 baseband data and give out reasonable positioning values. The corresponding known pulse signals can be found by carrying out matched filtering on a plurality of FRB observation data, and the feasibility of the pulse signal searching method based on the matched filtering principle is verified.
Search limits for narrow pulses by the verification algorithm:
a plurality of dispersion pulse signals with different pulse widths are generated as matched filters and matched and filtered with FRB1211102-210 baseband data, and the search limit of the algorithm on the narrow pulses is verified. The actual pulse width of the known pulse baseband data 121102-210 is 3.7ms, which simulates the generation of matched filters with pulse widths of 10ns,1us,100us,3.7ms,10ms,500ms, respectively. As a result, it was found that the analog dispersion pulse signals with pulse widths of 10ns,1us,100us,3.7ms and 10ms could find a true pulse signal with pulse width of 3.7ms, whereas the matching result of 500ms had no single pulse, and could not find a true pulse signal. Fig. 11 is a graph of the matching result of the 3.7ms pwm matched filter, and fig. 12 is a graph of the matching result of the 500ms pwm matched filter. The method has the characteristic of searching for wide pulses by narrow pulses, so that narrow pulse searching with limit of 10ns can be realized by generating a matched filter with pulse width of 10 ns. The feasibility of the method for searching for narrow pulses is verified.
The data processing speed is also one of the important factors for achieving high resolution pulse search. The cross-correlation calculation in the pulse search algorithm based on the matched filtering is simple linear calculation, and the GPU can be utilized to realize the parallel acceleration of the algorithm. And realizing the matched filtering of the baseband data with different lengths and the matched filter on the GPU, and calculating the average running time of five times. From the results in table 1, it is demonstrated that the running speed of the matched filter based pulse search algorithm implemented in the GPU has enabled real-time calculations. The real-time calculation speed can effectively reduce the data processing and storage pressure in the high-resolution pulse search implementation process.

Analysis of experimental results:
the feasibility of searching and positioning the pulse signals by the matched filtering method is verified through the experiment, and the pulse signals with the pulse width larger than the analog pulse width can be searched through setting the pulse width parameters of the matched filter, and the searching limit of the pulse signals can reach the pulse width of 10 ns. The calculation speed of the algorithm reaches the real-time level through the running time of the data with different lengths in the GPU.
According to the baseband data pulse searching method and system based on the GPU, in the process of matching filtering searching pulses, a matching source signal and baseband data which are generated in a simulating mode are all 1ns in sampling rate. The time resolution of the matched filtering method depends on the step length of sliding correlation, and the cross-correlation calculation function adopted by the algorithm sets the sliding step length to be 1ns, so that the time resolution of the matched filtering pulse signal searching method reaches 1ns, and the method can well conform to the development trend of astronomical observation of high time resolution.
Since the pulse duration of the pulse signal is short and the actual observation time is long, only a small amount of data in the large amount of observation baseband data is valid pulse signal data. The baseband data is subjected to GPU-based pulse search, effective pulse data with smaller data volume can be screened out, invalid data is discarded, the data processing and storage pressure of high-time-resolution pulse search can be reduced, and the data volume of subsequent data processing is greatly reduced. The pulse searching method based on the matched filtering is simple linear calculation, has extremely high parallelism, can accelerate the algorithm through the GPU, and realizes the real-time algorithm operation.
