The detection algorithm based on the frequency domain data mainly comprises a frequency domain energy statistical method and a cyclic spectrum estimation algorithm. The detection method based on the frequency domain data has stronger noise suppression capability, but has large data volume requirement, can be used for detecting burst signals with larger burst interval and lower signal-to-noise ratio, and is not applicable to the system; the detection method based on the time domain data needs small data volume, but requires high signal-to-noise ratio, and is suitable for the real-time detection of burst interval small signals; the short-time white sum closing method needs to calculate the correlation function of the signal, has large calculated amount and is not beneficial to hardware realization; the total algorithm is poor in performance or large in calculation amount, and the requirement of high-speed burst signal detection is difficult to meet. In the above detection scheme, one link is to compare the peak value after matching correlation with a set threshold. In detecting the unique code by using the correlation method, if a fixed threshold is adopted, the detection is difficult to be correctly performed.

Detailed Description
In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it should be understood that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments, and therefore should not be considered as limiting the scope of protection. All other embodiments, which are obtained by a worker of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts, are within the protection scope of the present application based on the embodiments of the present application.
In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, unless explicitly stated and limited otherwise, the terms "disposed," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly, and may be, for example, fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected; can be mechanically or electrically connected; or may be directly connected, or may be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or may be communication between two elements. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present application will be understood in specific cases by those of ordinary skill in the art.
Navigation systems play an important role in aircraft, submarines, ships, etc. Radio navigation is performed by measuring electrical signal parameters, such as amplitude, frequency, phase, etc., of electromagnetic waves as they propagate in space. In integrated navigation systems, the specific gravity of data communication is larger and larger, the data transmission rate is higher and higher, and the output values of various navigation subsystems show strong correlations, and the correlations provide necessary information redundancy for fault detection, such as inertial navigation systems, global positioning systems and Doppler speed sensors, which can provide the speed of a navigation body. Under normal conditions, the difference between these measurements is within a certain range, and if a navigation subsystem fails, the normal correlation with other subsystems will be destroyed. Because the operation environment is complex and special, once the components in the operation environment fail, decision-making personnel can be misled to make wrong decisions, economic loss is caused, and the accident of machine destruction and human death is caused. Therefore, the failure hazard is large. The inertial navigation system installed on the airplane is fixedly connected with the airplane body, is greatly influenced by the vibration of the airplane and is usually in a high dynamic environment. Under the high altitude environment, the components of the navigation equipment are subjected to various environmental factors such as high and low temperature, noise, electromagnetism, space particle radiation, vibration, space environment chemical pollution and the like, so that the output parameters of the navigation system have great errors compared with the output under the laboratory condition. The errors generated are mainly as follows: cone error, pitch error, and scroll error. These errors add difficulty to fault detection and diagnosis. The data processing capability of the airborne navigation computer is limited, and the airborne resources are limited, so that the excessively complex fault diagnosis method cannot be adopted in order to achieve the real-time performance and accuracy of fault detection and diagnosis in comparison with ground equipment. The general fault detection and diagnosis method cannot be directly applied to the navigation system. The occurrence of faults is abrupt, such as the failure of an inertial navigation system mounted on an aircraft, which cannot be handled during the flight due to limited manual intervention capacity, which may lead to a task failure.
At present, a multi-body satellite navigation signal simulation technology and multi-body navigation signal simulation source equipment are widely applied. The multi-body navigation signal simulation source can simulate navigation scenes in various environments such as cities, suburbs, canyons, oceans and the like in a laboratory environment, so that the consumption of resources in links such as development, experiments, production, testing and application of a GNSS receiver and a system thereof is greatly reduced, and the performance of the multi-body navigation signal simulation source can directly influence the satellite navigation terminal product to participate in a plurality of key technologies such as navigation satellite orbit high precision, navigation signal generation, carrier phase precise control and transmission error simulation. To overcome the effects of external factors on the receiver input signal, automatic gain control techniques are required. The automatic gain control system comprises two parts, namely radio frequency gain control and baseband gain control. The radio frequency front end employed by the receiver system provides only a variable gain amplifier but no automatic gain control function. Among them, the automatic gain control AGC is an automatic control method that causes the gain of an amplifying circuit to be automatically adjusted according to the signal strength. In an analog AGC unit in the automatic gain control technology, the level value of a comparator in a level detection/comparison circuit is analog, and is easy to be influenced by temperature and circuit component performance to cause fluctuation, and the fluctuation change can cause the comparator to judge delay when a received signal is in a low level state, so that the received signal is lost. The dynamic range low end of the analog AGC can typically only be 30dB. The digital AGC unit level detection/comparison circuit is implemented by a DSP. The general DSP signal processing program does not consider the intermittence of navigation signal emission and the complexity of signal format, and can cause decoding errors in the test of a microwave landing system MMS, a rangefinder system DME system and an air traffic control system ATC. Because of the guiding continuity characteristic of the navigation signal and the ground air loss, the transmitting power of the ground station is always small in long distance and large in short distance, and because the acting distances of the navigation subsystems are different from each other, the transmitting signal power of the subsystems is far different even on the same test point. For each navigation subsystem, the duty ratio of the signals is different, the obtained noise level value and gain are also different, and the obtained digital AGC control level is used as a signal comparison reference and is not a fixed value but is related to the characteristics of each subsystem. In burst communication mode, the output level of the receiver depends on the input signal level and the gain of the receiver, and the signal strength received by the receiver varies greatly with the channel environment and the receiving condition. For various reasons, the input signal of the receiver often has a large variation range, and the signal can be one microvolts or tens of microvolts when weak, and can reach hundreds of millivolts when strong. The strongest signal and the weakest signal may differ by up to several tens of decibels, a variation range referred to as the dynamic range of the receiver. When the transmitter is operated at a distance of, for example, several hundred meters, the signal power received by the receiver exceeds the dynamic range of the rf front-end chip, which can disable the AGC in the rf front-end, so that the amplitude of the output signal is not constant, and the amplifier may be burned out due to the oversized input signal. If the amplifier output signal exceeds the dynamic range of the radio frequency front end AGC, the amplitude of the intermediate frequency continuous signal exceeds the normal amplitude, and the duty ratio of the MAG output signal is directly caused to exceed 1/3. The ratio of the intermediate frequency output continuous signal amplitude to the normal signal amplitude is related to the duty cycle of the output signal at the MAG end, so the key of the AGC control module is to design a circuit to detect the duty cycle of the output signal.
Factors influencing the input signal of the receiver are numerous, such as the magnitude of the power of the transmitting station, the distance of the receiver from the transmitting station, variations in propagation conditions of the signal during propagation, such as ionosphere and troposphere disturbances, weather variations, variations in the environment of the receiver, and the effect of artificially generated noise on the receiver, etc. If the signal suddenly experiences a relatively large change, the discontinuous transmission DTX situation cannot be timely determined, but is processed according to the conventional signal, the gain value is increased. The terminal receiving device may also encounter a large attenuation condition of the received signal, for example, when the variation range is within 40dB, the gain of the AGC cannot be kept up in time, so that the received signal of the AGC is too small or supersaturated, and the subsequent signal processing will be seriously affected.
Two important indicators of AGC block design are stability and response speed. Stability requires that the AGC control voltage jitter be small when in operation and not susceptible to pulse disturbances. The response speed requires that the AGC circuit amplify and attenuate the input signal to the normal range as soon as possible at the moment of start-up and keep up with the low frequency variations in signal amplitude during operation. A precondition is that the gain of the receiving-end automatic gain control unit remains constant during reception of the burst communication signal. But in actual implementation, the above conditions cannot be maintained. These two indicators are in fact contradictory. The burst signal receiving system includes two parts, including RF system and baseband system, and the RF system is used to complete the analog-to-digital conversion and signal demodulation of the intermediate frequency signal. The baseband system is responsible for converting the radio frequency signal into an intermediate frequency signal, and has the functions of filtering, amplifying, frequency conversion and the like. The receiver receives the signal, mainly considers that the noise is introduced to the minimum and the interference signal is restrained to the minimum while the function of the radio frequency system is completed. The individual devices in the radio frequency module can be divided into two types, active and passive. The active device must produce a certain noise at normal temperature due to its own characteristics, while the passive device does not have a specific noise like the active device, but the attenuation caused by it is also a phase-change noise introduction. In reality, noise sources are various, the mechanism and the characteristics of the generation are complex, and the reasonable arrangement of the performance trade-off and matching among the modules is required in the design. The interference signals are mainly divided into three cases: co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference and image interference. Co-channel interference is not hardware resolved and can only be avoided by directional antennas, which fails if the interference is from the same direction as the received signal. For adjacent channel interference, besides intermodulation and intermodulation interference usable signals, if the interference signals are strong, the amplifier can be caused to enter a saturated state, the gain is reduced, and the sensitivity of the system is reduced. The receiver therefore needs to employ a bandpass filter to suppress the strong interference of the adjacent channels. When a receiving system is to filter out a narrow channel signal with high frequency and large interference, a filter is required to have a very high Q value, and usually, the filter is difficult to realize, even if the cost is very high, and attenuation of the filter with high Q value in a passband is large, which causes deterioration of noise coefficient of the system and reduces the receiving sensitivity of the system. It is therefore desirable to select a reasonable reception scheme to suppress interference while maintaining high sensitivity of the system.
In a wireless burst communication channel, for burst signals, if a demodulator for continuous signals is used to demodulate burst signals, the following problems must occur: when the signal exists, the demodulator accurately locks, and the signal can be accurately demodulated; when the signal disappears and only noise is present, the demodulator will drift. The conventional receiver employs a feedback type analog AGC unit, an analog AGC unit and a digital AGC unit, respectively. The analog AGC unit includes controllable gain amplifying circuit, level detecting circuit or envelope detector, filter, comparator, control signal generating circuit, etc. Because of the strong multipath interference in the wireless burst communication channel. In order to obtain certain anti-interference capability and confidentiality, a spread spectrum technology is generally adopted, so that the input signal-to-noise ratio of the system is low, the dynamic range is larger, a common Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuit is difficult to adapt to the system, meanwhile, the communication distance and the channel environment are easy to change due to movement, and particularly, the system transmits data in a random burst mode, so that the input signal is extremely intense and rapid, and in the case, the system works stably and reliably, very strict requirements are definitely put on the automatic gain control circuit, and the following main points are included:
(1) Since the dynamic range of the input signal is wide, the dynamic range of the AGC is necessarily required to be wide in order to prevent signal distortion and noise saturation;
(2) Particularly, when working in a burst mode, because the time slot or frame is very short, the synchronous signal in the time slot or frame is shorter, so that each time slot or frame can be correctly received, the control speed of the AGC becomes the primary problem to be considered;
(3) The AGC system of the receiver not only controls the level to the detector, but also operates under the following conditions: i: when the desired signal is absent and a significant amount of noise is present due to interference, the AGC must control the signal level to prevent false target recognition; ii: when the desired signal is present, the AGC must have the output level only a function of the input signal, independent of other signals; iii: the AGC must provide near critical damping characteristics to prevent pulse stretching and avoid false sync indications.
A burst signal is a signal that is very difficult to understand literally. Generally, a burst signal is a sequence of signal components calculated as one unit according to a specific criterion or metric in data communication. In most cases, the burst signal is short-lived, and thus is a continuous signal of relatively long duration. The starting point and the starting position of the burst signal are uncertain. Burst signals cannot generally be handled in a conventional manner. In general, for processing of continuous signals, one is less concerned about the start and end of the signal, but in the case of non-cooperative communication for burst signals, since there is no accurate a priori knowledge of the occurrence of the signal, it is sometimes necessary to judge the start of the signal, and also the end of the signal. Signal detection may be performed in the passband or in the baseband. Each hop of the frequency-hopped signal can be seen as a short burst signal. These known structures are difficult, if not impossible, to obtain for non-cooperative recipients, and particularly for communication systems employing interactive training, because the non-cooperative recipients cannot participate in the communication session of the communication, and even if they grasp part of the information structure, they cannot successfully utilize the known information. The burst signal has the characteristics of burst and transient, and a certain method is needed to be adopted before demodulation to judge whether the received signal is noise or a signal carrying data. Therefore, related detection algorithms are designed to detect burst signals rapidly and accurately, otherwise, signal loss is caused, which is a problem of burst signal detection.
In recent years, many scholars have proposed a signal energy-based detection algorithm, a time domain data-based algorithm, a frequency domain data-based detection algorithm, a short-time self-phase function-based energy statistics algorithm, a high-order statistics method, and a zero-crossing detection algorithm; the detection algorithm based on signal energy has great relevance between the setting of the decision threshold and the environmental noise, and a general decision threshold is not selected, so that the energy detection method also loses the application value; the double sliding window method is most commonly used in a detection algorithm based on signal energy, the algorithm is easy to realize, but the threshold selection of the algorithm is related to the gain of a receiver, the final detection effect can be influenced by the signal-to-noise ratio, and the performance is slightly poor when the signal-to-noise ratio is low. The detection algorithm based on the frequency domain data mainly comprises a frequency domain energy statistical method and a cyclic spectrum estimation algorithm. The detection method based on the frequency domain data has stronger noise suppression capability, but has large data volume requirement, can be used for detecting burst signals with larger burst interval and lower signal-to-noise ratio, and is not applicable to the system; the detection method based on the time domain data needs small data volume, but requires high signal-to-noise ratio, and is suitable for the real-time detection of burst interval small signals; the short-time white sum closing method needs to calculate the correlation function of the signal, has large calculated amount and is not beneficial to hardware realization; the total algorithm is poor in performance or large in calculation amount, and the requirement of high-speed burst signal detection is difficult to meet. In the above detection scheme, one link is to compare the peak value after matching correlation with a set threshold. In detecting the unique code by using the correlation method, if a fixed threshold is adopted, the detection is difficult to be correctly performed.
