Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a remote control installation for pointing a receiving antenna from the location of a transmitting antenna.
  • the receiving antenna can be rotated by motor means around the first and / or second predetermined directions which are those of the sites and azimuths.
  • Such a pointing procedure therefore requires the presence of the first operator and, as a corollary, additional transport costs when the receiving antenna is in an isolated location that is difficult to access.
  • the invention therefore aims to eliminate the presence of the first operator to perform the pointing of the receiving antenna.
  • the receiving antenna rotates not only around a first direction corresponding to the axis of the sites for example, but also around a second direction corresponding to the axis of the azimuths, under the control of second motor means.
  • the antenna is positioned separately in elevation and in azimuth, in order to optimize the gain according to the two parameters.
  • the first transmission means can transmit to the first reception means through the forward link either a first angle of rotation and first directives of advance of the first motor means, or a second angle of rotation and first directives of advance of the second drive means as soon as the second reception means have received either "end of aiming" information according to the first angle of rotation which is delivered by first means of detection of the first angle of rotation, or "end of aiming” information "According to the second angle of rotation which is delivered by second means for detecting the second angle of rotation, which" end of pointing "information is transmitted by the second transmission means through the return link.
  • Such automatic gain optimization means increase the speed of pointing and the operator's involuntary errors.

  • the embodiment described below concerns the remote control for pointing the receiving antenna of a radio relay from the transmitting antenna which is on board a broadcasting vehicle and which is in direct visibility with the antenna. receptor. Often the hertzian relay is established in an isolated place, hardly accessible. By way of example, certain numerical characteristics will be specified as the description progresses.
  • This turret is of the kind that supports a radar or receiving antenna receiving signals from a satellite.
  • the turret can be rotated in elevation and in azimuth. It comprises a vertical mast which rotates around a vertical axis 10A by means of a first power geared motor 11 A and scans the entire horizon from 0 to 360 °. At the upper end of this mast is rotatably mounted around a horizontal axis 10S a plate 12 which supports the receiving antenna 1. With respect to the horizontal, the antenna can pivot in elevation in a sector of 80 ° by means of a second 11 S power gearmotor.

  • this telephone link is a conventional radiotelephone link operating either in the 75 MHz band or in the 400 MHz band.
  • the transmission circuit 3 therefore transmits messages to the reception circuit 6 through modulators 30, a telegraph channel multiplexer 31 and the transmitting part 73 of the radiotelephone on the vehicle side, then through the receiving part 76 of the radiotelephone of the radio relay side and demodulators 60.
  • the transmission circuit 4 on the radio relay side transmits messages to the reception circuit 5 through modulators 40, a telegraph channel multiplexer 41 and the transmitting part 74 of the radiotelephone of the radio relay side, then through the receiving part 75 of the radiotelephone on the vehicle side and of the demodulators 50.
  • the data processed digitally in circuits 3 to 6 are transmitted in link 7 after a bivalent serial modulation obtained by frequency shift in the 30-50 and 40-60 modems. These modems conform to the recommendations and opinions of the CCITT.

It will be assumed that the number n of these high-frequency bands are two, HF 1 and HF 2 , and have the addresses EXP, and EXP 2 in operating mode and MES, and MES 2 in measurement mode. Signal and noise level measurements in such high-frequency bands make it possible to select the one which presents, at the level of the receiving antenna, the best quality for operation. As shown in fig. 3, in the receiving part of the radio relay, the HF and HF channels 2 lead to a two-position switch 15 which selects the usable signal, during operation, during the transmission of the composite video signal by the transmitting antenna 2.

Each gain is inversely proportional to the value of the power picked up by the receiving antenna 1.
  • the gains g 1 and g 2 are transmitted to two analog-digital converters 431, 432 from two automatic gain control circuits (AGC) 19 1 and 19 2 inserted on the HF, and HF 2 channels, as shown in fig. 3.

If vs or va is equal to zero, the operator will be able to send new words S or A to refine the score.
  • the last bit aut indicates whether the turret is in the automatic pointing phase or not.

17. Verfahren zur Optimierung des Leistungsgrades, ausgeführt durch die automatische Ausrichteinrichtung (8) nach Anspruch 16, gekennzeichnet durch die Verfahrensschritte:
a) ungefähres Ausrichten der Empfangsantenne (1) auf die Sendeantenne (2) entsprechend der topographischen Lage, wobei der Ausgangsdrehwinkel So einem Leistungsgrad Go entspricht;
b) Ausrichten der Empfangsantenne auf einen Winkel
Figure imgb0006
und Speichern des zugehörigen Leistungsgrades Gl; wobei ΔS so definiert ist, daß G, = kGo ist, wobei k eine vorgegebene Zahl größer als 1 ist;
c) schrittweises Ausrichten der Empfangsantenne durch Veränderung des Winkels von S1 auf einen Wert S2, der in bezug auf das Optimum Sm symmetrisch zu Si liegt, dergestalt, daß für den Wert S2 der Leistungsgrad gleich dem gespeicherten Wert von G, ist;
d) Ausrichten der Empfangsantenne auf den Winkel Sm, der dem minimalen Leistungsgrad Gm entspricht, so daß gilt:
