The data link load comprises a power supply unit, a baseband signal processing unit, a radio frequency transmitting channel unit, a power amplifying unit, a low noise amplifying unit, a radio frequency receiving channel unit and a receiving and transmitting antenna; the power supply unit comprises an on-off control module, a short-circuit protection module, a surge suppression module, a DC/DC conversion module and the like; the signal generated by the baseband signal processing unit is transmitted to the data link terminal at the user side through the radio frequency transmitting channel unit, the power amplifying unit and the receiving and transmitting antenna in sequence. The receiving and transmitting antenna receives the data link signal of the data link terminal at the user side, and the received signal sequentially passes through the low noise amplifying unit and the radio frequency receiving channel unit and then enters the baseband signal processing unit to carry out analog-digital conversion and digital signal processing. The switching of the data link load signal on the satellite side is realized by a circulator or a switch.
Fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a data link terminal, which includes a digital signal processing module, a receiving channel, a low noise amplifying module, a transceiver antenna, a transmitting channel and a power amplifying module. The signal generated by the data link signal processing module is sequentially transmitted to the Beidou satellite data link load through the radio frequency transmitting channel, the power amplifying module and the receiving and transmitting antenna; the receiving and transmitting antenna receives signals transmitted by the data link load of the Beidou satellite side, and the received signals sequentially pass through the low-noise amplifying module and the radio frequency receiving channel module and then enter the data link signal processing module to carry out analog-to-digital conversion and digital signal processing. The data link terminal on the user side is switched with respect to the transceiving of the data link signal by a circulator or a switch.
Based on the same inventive concept as the previous embodiment, referring to fig. 9, a specific flow chart of the time synchronization method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:
step S301: the data link load control data link load time is synchronous with the Beidou satellite time reference.
Here, the data link load is configured in the beidou satellite, and the data link load is hard-synchronized with the beidou satellite second pulse, so that the satellite data link system and the navigation system adopt the same time. In addition, the design needs to consider that the frequency of the uplink and downlink signals of the data link cannot influence the navigation signal.
Step S302: the data link termination is time synchronized with the data link load in the planet.
The data link terminal initiates a timing request to the data link load at the satellite side, and the timing request information is encoded and modulated according to a specified format and then transmitted to the data link load at the satellite side. And the data chain load at the satellite side returns time information to the ground terminal according to a preset timing algorithm, so that the time synchronization of the data chain system is completed.
Step S303: the data link terminal calculates the time synchronization precision of the data link system.
For satellite-to-ground time synchronization accuracy of the satellite data chain, an RTT-like synchronization algorithm may be used for analysis, which is not described herein.
If the delay error of the hardware channel is not considered, the time service error caused by the position change can be controlled within +/-5 us (microseconds). The error is equivalent to an uncertainty range of about 40 chips for the Beidou signal of 10.23Mcps, greatly compresses the uncertainty of Beidou time, and has extremely high long code capturing auxiliary value. Even if the time precision of the link points of the data links on the satellite is only +/-20 ms, the time uncertainty of +/-1 s of the long code direct capture is compressed for 50 times, and the benefit is remarkable.
Step S304: the data link terminal transmits the data link time to the military Beidou receiver to assist in long code capturing.
Here, the data link terminal transmits the data link time to the military Beidou receiver so as to assist the receiver to finish 10us precision time service, and the capturing only needs to search about 205 code phases to finish the quick capturing of the long code.
The specific process is as follows:
when the long code capturing of the Beidou receiver is carried out by adopting a PMF+DFT (partial matched filter+discrete Fourier transform) processing mode, the PMF processing realizes parallel search of code phases, and the DFT realizes parallel search of frequencies. Referring to fig. 10, a schematic diagram of a processing architecture for long code acquisition is shown, where PMF is implemented in the frequency domain.
The B3Q signal information rate is 500bps, limiting the coherent integration time to 2ms. The acquisition timing based on 2ms coherent integration and post accumulation is shown in fig. 11. Firstly, signal data and local pseudo codes need to be cached, the sampling rate of the signal is 20.46MHz, 2ms data is divided into 20 sub-blocks, each sub-block contains 0.1ms data and pseudo codes, and one DFT operation can finish the pseudo code search of 0.1ms time uncertainty.
Because the coherent integration time is limited, a noncoherent accumulation method is generally adopted, and the capture sensitivity is improved. 0.1ms pre-integral equivalent 10KHz frequency searching range, different frequency searching precision f dop The maximum incoherent integration total time is calculated as follows:
t×f dop ×f code /f r ≤0.5
Wherein f code Is the spread spectrum code rate, f r Is the carrier frequency. Lifting the number of incoherent accumulations will result in an increase in the total search duration, requiring a balance of sensitivity and acquisition speed, given the constraints imposed by the total hardware resources. The method is characterized in that the table 1 is a capture probability simulation table of different sensitivities (namely signal power) and incoherent accumulation times, and the D2 code capture sensitivity of the current Beidou system is generally limited to-143 to-141 dBm.
TABLE 1
The data chain terminal can assist the Beidou receiver to finish 10us precision time service, greatly compress time uncertainty and only need to search about 205 code phases. In view of the fact that the BD provides the B3A pilot channel, sensitivity can be improved in a mode of lengthening coherent integration time, capturing performance of military Beidou signals is greatly improved, and difference between a capturing threshold and a tracking threshold is reduced.
After the time uncertainty is greatly compressed, the dwell search time for each code phase is increased, and a coherent integration time of over 10ms can be used based on the pilot channel of B3A, which indicates that the sensitivity can be increased to-145 dBm, see fig. 12.
In summary, the present embodiment provides a time synchronization method, which has the following innovative points: the Beidou and satellite data link platform is integrally designed, a data link load is configured on a Beidou satellite, a data link waveform is designed to be a high-speed variable-speed frequency hopping system, and the high anti-interference performance of a data link channel is utilized to assist in enhancing the countermeasure capability of a Beidou navigation system; and the load time reference of the data link on the satellite is synchronous with the Beidou time reference, the time service of the Beidou receiver is completed by utilizing the access synchronization of the data link terminal, the uncertainty of the Beidou time is compressed, and the direct capturing/re-capturing time of the Beidou long code is accelerated. Meanwhile, the method has the following advantages: by constructing a fusion system of satellite navigation and satellite data chains, an anti-interference time service channel can be additionally provided for users, and for users who originally need navigation and data chains to exist at the same time, wireless networks required by the existing A-GNSS technology do not need to be rebuilt, beidou long code capture can be assisted through the satellite data chains, and the functions and performances of the Beidou and satellite data chains are not influenced; the satellite data link time is synchronous with the Beidou time, the time service precision of the satellite data link is assumed to be +/-20 ms, and the satellite data link time can be compressed by 50 times relative to the uncertainty of +/-1 s of direct capturing of the Beidou long code, so that the direct capturing time of the long code is greatly shortened; the time service precision is further improved by optimizing a timing algorithm of the satellite-ground data chain, and the method has great significance for compression of Beidou time uncertainty.
