Definitions
- the invention relates to a synchronization device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the time-synchronous and in-phase transmission of the useful signal is a requirement. If the useful signal transmitters of the single-frequency radio system arranged in spatially distributed transmission stations receive the useful signal from a control center via modulation feeders of different lengths, their runtimes are determined according to the prior art and all modulation feeders are matched to the longest transmission runtime using delay devices.
- a test signal is not used for time comparison, which must also be stored in the individual transmitter stations and a separate synchronization signal must be obtained from an external transmitter at the start, but that only a single signal, here referred to as a synchronous signal, is required, which is emitted by a common, wireless synchronous signal transmitter, which is preferably located in the central office. From here, the synchronizing signal becomes wireless once and transmitted once via the associated modulation feeder to each of the transmitting stations. There's a wireless sync there. signal receiver available.
- the synchronous signal transmitter and the synchronous signal receiver operate at the operating frequency of the single-frequency radio system on which the transmission of the useful signals also takes place; as a result, it is possible to install a useful signal receiver as a synchronous signal receiver, such as is present in large numbers on the receiving side of the single-frequency radio system, for example as a mobile receiver.
- a useful signal transmitter can be used as a synchronous signal transmitter, as is to be installed in any transmitting station anyway. Furthermore, the use of only one transmission frequency results in good frequency economy.
- the time-of-flight comparator present in each transmission station which compares the time between the wirelessly received synchronization signal and the synchronization signal supplied via a modulation feeder, controls a delay device which is arranged between the modulation feeder and the useful signal transmitter of the transmission station.
- the resulting automatic runtime comparison between the control center and the useful signal transmitter can take place in stages and should be carried out with a residual error of less than 50 microseconds. Before the start of each useful signal transmission, such a transit time comparison can be carried out with the aid of a synchronous signal.
- the synchronous signal consists of a carrier wave train modulated in the envelope curve.
- a rough adjustment signal is derived from the envelope curve in the transit time comparator and a fine adjustment signal for the delay device is derived from the carrier frequency train.
- Envelope and carrier wave train are transmitted from the synchronous signal to the synchronous signal in phase synchronization from the control center. The on the operating frequency for the useful signals of the useful signal The synchronous signals are sent out at a fixed time interval before each useful signal is sent.
- useful signals are sent to the single-frequency radio system via a call processor RP, which arrive at a center Z. From here, they are fed via modulation feeders M1, M2, M3, ... to individual transmission stations S1, S2, S3, ... These modulation feeders belong to a network of modulation feeders within which line switching can occur, with the result that the runtime changes from the central station to a specific transmitting station. A runtime compensation is therefore required in each transmitter station so that the useful signal transmissions by the individual transmitter stations ultimately take place synchronously. For this reason, for example, the transmission station S1 contains a controllable delay direction V3 between its associated modulation feeder M1 and its useful signal transmitter Sn 1.
- the control is carried out by a runtime comparator K, to which, on the one hand, synchronization signals from the modulation feeder M1 are fed for the runtime comparison.
- the runtime comparator contains wirelessly received synchronization signals from a synchronization signal receiver Es 1 contained in the transmission station S1.
- the central station Z sends a synchronizing signal A (see also FIG. 2) both to the modulation feeder Ml (and of course to the other modulation feeders) and via a delay element V1 with a delay time T1 to a synchronous signal transmitter Ss zul wireless transmission to the individual synchronous receivers Es etc.
- a synchronizing signal A see also FIG. 2
- the wirelessly transmitted synchronous signal arrives essentially after the time T1 if the remaining running times of the wireless transmission path are neglected.
- the synchronization signal transmitted via the modulation feeder M1 reaches the runtime comparator after the runtime T2.
- T1 is chosen so large that it is at least as long as the largest modulation feeder run time between the center and a transmitting station.
- the delay element V1 can also be located between the synchronous signal receiver Es 1 and the runtime comparator K, where it is therefore shown again with broken lines.
- the same transmitter can be used as the synchronous signal transmitter Ss, as is provided in the individual transmitter stations as the useful signal transmitter Sn 1.
- the same receiver can be used as the synchronous signal receiver Es 1 in the transmitting stations as it is provided on the receiving side of the useful signals as a mobile useful signal receiver En, for example. Since the useful signal transmitters and in particular the useful signal receivers are to be provided in large numbers in a single-frequency radio system and can therefore be manufactured relatively cheaply, the synchronization device equipped with such a transmitter as a synchronous signal transmitter or with such receivers as a synchronous signal receiver can be set up inexpensively.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Synchronisiereinrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. Zur Nutzsignalübertragung in einem Gleichwellenfunksystem ist die zeitsynchrone und phasenrichtige Aussendung des Nutzsignals Bedingung. Wenn die jeweils in räumlich verteilten Sendestationen angeordneten Nutzsignalsender des Gleichwellenfunksystems das Nutzsignal von einer Zentrale über unterschiedlich lange Modulationszubringer erhalten, werden nach dem Stand der Technik deren Laufzeiten ermittelt und alle Modulationszubringer mit Hilfe von Verzögerungseinrichtungen auf die längste übertragungslaufzeit abgeglichen.The invention relates to a synchronization device according to the preamble of
Da ein solches Verfahren in einem Gleichwellenfunksystem mit größerer Ausbreitung aufwendig und bei Umschaltungen im Netz der Modulationszubringer schlecht überschaubar ist, sind automatische Verfahren zur Adaption der Laufzeiten anzustreben. Hierzu ist es aus der DE-OS 31 32 011 bekannt, ein Testsignal von der Zentrale über die Modulationszubringer zu den einzelnen Sendestationen übertragen. Die übertragung wird eingeleitet durch ein Synchronsignal, das sowohl in der Zentrale als auch in den einzelnen Sendestationen von Zeitsignalen abgeleitet wird, die jeweils von einem externen Zeitsignalsender empfangen werden. In den einzelnen Sendestationen findet dann ein Zeitvergleich statt zwischen einerseits dem dort abgeleiteten Synchronsignal und dem über den zugehörigen Modulationszubringer angekommenen Testsignal. Das Vergleichsergebnis führt zur Nachsteuerung einer Verzögerungseinrichtung in der betreffenden Sendestation mit dem Ziel, eine synchrone Aussendung der Nutzsignale bei allen Sendestationen zu erzielen.Since such a method is complex in a single-wave radio system with a large spread and the switching of the modulation feeder in the network is difficult to understand, automatic methods for adapting the transit times are desirable. For this purpose, it is known from DE-OS 31 32 011 to transmit a test signal from the control center via the modulation feeder individual broadcasting stations. The transmission is initiated by a synchronous signal which is derived both in the control center and in the individual transmitting stations from time signals which are each received by an external time signal transmitter. A time comparison then takes place in the individual transmitting stations between the synchronous signal derived there on the one hand and the test signal arriving via the associated modulation feeder. The comparison result leads to the readjustment of a delay device in the relevant transmission station with the aim of achieving a synchronous transmission of the useful signals at all transmission stations.
Umständlich ist bei dieser Art der Synchronisierung, daß sowohl in der Zentrale als auch in den Sendestationen spezielle Empfänger für die Zeitsignale vorhanden sein müssen, aus welchen die Synchronsignale abgeleitet werden. Außerdem kann es nachteilhaft sein, daß das von der Zentrale ausgesendete Testsignal nur zu bestimmten Zeiten, nämlich beim jeweiligen Vorliegen eines Synchronsignals, gestartet werden kann.With this type of synchronization, it is cumbersome that special receivers for the time signals, from which the synchronization signals are derived, must be present both in the control center and in the transmitting stations. In addition, it can be disadvantageous that the test signal transmitted by the control center can only be started at certain times, namely when a synchronization signal is present.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine vereinfachte Synchronisiereinrichtung anzugeben.It is an object of the present invention to provide a simplified synchronization device.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Synchronisiereinrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung ist im Patentanspruch 2 angegeben. Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, daß nicht ein Testsignal zum Zeitvergleich verwendet wird, das zudem in den einzelnen Sendestationen noch abgespeichert werden muß und zu dessen Start ein gesondertes Synchronsignal von einem externen Sender bezogen werden muß, sondern daß nur noch ein einziges Signal, hier als Synchronsignal bezeichnet, benötigt wird, das von einem gemeinsamen, drahtlosen Synchronsignalsender ausgesendet wird, der bevorzugt in der Zentrale steht. Von hieraus wird das Synchronsignal einmal drahtlos und einmal über den zugehörigen Modulationszubringer zu jeder ier Sendestationen übertragen. Dort ist ein drahtloser Synchron. signalempfänger vorhanden. Von besonderem Vorteil ist dabei, jaß der Synchronsignalsender und die Synchronsignalempfänger auf der Betriebsfrequenz des Gleichwellenfunksystems arbeiten, auf welcher auch die übertragung der Nutzsignale stattfindet; dadurch ist es möglich, als Synchronsignalempfänger einen Nutzsignalempfänger zu installieren, wie er auf der Empfangsseite des Gleichwellenfunksystem ohnehin in größerer Stückzahl beispielsweise als Mobilempfänger vorhanden ist. Außerdem kann als Synchronsignalsender ein Nutzsignalsender verwendet werden, wie er ohnehin in jeder Sendestation zu installieren ist. Ferner ergibt die Benutzung nur einer Übertragungsfrequenz eine gute Frequenzökonomie.This object is achieved by the synchronizing device with the features of
Der in jeder Sendestation vorhandene Laufzeitkomparator, der den Zeitvergleich vornimmt zwischen dem drahtlos empfangenen Synchronsignal und dem über einen Modulationszubringer zugeführten Synchronsignal, steuert eine Verzögerungseinrichtung, die zwischen dem Modulationszubringer und dem Nutzsignalsender der Sendestation angeordnet ist. Der dadurch bewirkte automatische Laufzeitabgleich zwischen Zentrale und Nutzsignalsender kann stufenweise erfolgen und sollte bis auf einen Restfehler von weniger als 50 Mikrosekunden durchgeführt werden. Vor dem Beginn einer jeden Nutzsignalaussendung kann ein solcher Laufzeitabgleich mit Hilfe eines Synchronsignals durchgeführt werden. Damit Mehrdeutigkeiten beim Abgleich der Laufzeit auf die längste der im Gleichwellenfunksystem zwischen der Zentrale und einem Nutzsignalsender vorkommenden Laufzeiten vermieden werden, besteht das Synchronsignal aus einem in der Hüllkurve modulierten Trägerschwingungszug. Aus der Hüllkurve wird in dem Laufzeitkomparator ein Grobeinstellungssignal und aus dem Trägerfrequenzzug ein Feineinstellungssignal für die Verzögerungseinrichtung abgeleitet. Hüllkurve und Trägerschwingungszug werden von Synchronsignal zu Synchronsignal phasensynchron zueinander von der Zentrale ausgesendet. Die auf der Betriebsfrequenz für die Nutzsignale der Nutzsignalsender erfolgende Aussendung der Synchronsignale erfolgt jeweils in einem festen zeitlichen Abstand vor jeder Nutzsignalaussendung. Da für den Laufzeitabgleich Einstellzeiten von weniger als einer Sekunde notwendig sind, ist bei einem Sendezyklus von 60 Sekunden für die Nutzsignale nur ein relativ geringer Verlust an Verkehrszeit in Kauf zu nehmen. Dieser Verlust ist auf jeden Fall geringer, als beim Stand der Technik, bei dem aufgrund nicht mit den Nutzsignal-Sendezyklen synchronisierter Zeitsignale der jeweilige Laufzeitausgleich in genügend großem zeitlichen Abstand vor einem Nutzsignalsendezyklus vorgenommen werden muß.The time-of-flight comparator present in each transmission station, which compares the time between the wirelessly received synchronization signal and the synchronization signal supplied via a modulation feeder, controls a delay device which is arranged between the modulation feeder and the useful signal transmitter of the transmission station. The resulting automatic runtime comparison between the control center and the useful signal transmitter can take place in stages and should be carried out with a residual error of less than 50 microseconds. Before the start of each useful signal transmission, such a transit time comparison can be carried out with the aid of a synchronous signal. In order to avoid ambiguities when comparing the transit time to the longest of the transit times occurring in the single-frequency radio system between the control center and a useful signal transmitter, the synchronous signal consists of a carrier wave train modulated in the envelope curve. A rough adjustment signal is derived from the envelope curve in the transit time comparator and a fine adjustment signal for the delay device is derived from the carrier frequency train. Envelope and carrier wave train are transmitted from the synchronous signal to the synchronous signal in phase synchronization from the control center. The on the operating frequency for the useful signals of the useful signal The synchronous signals are sent out at a fixed time interval before each useful signal is sent. Since setting times of less than one second are necessary for the runtime adjustment, only a relatively small loss of traffic time can be accepted with a transmission cycle of 60 seconds for the useful signals. This loss is in any case less than in the prior art, in which due to time signals not synchronized with the useful signal transmission cycles, the respective runtime compensation must be carried out at a sufficiently large time interval before a useful signal transmission cycle.
Anhand der Zeichnung wird ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeipiel der Erfindung erläutert.A preferred exemplary embodiment of the invention is explained on the basis of the drawing.
- Fig. 1 zeigt ein Blockschaltbild eines Gleichwellenfunksystems und1 shows a block diagram of a single-frequency radio system and
- Fig. 2 zugehörige Zeitverläufe des Synchronsignals.Fig. 2 associated time profiles of the synchronizing signal.
In Fig. 1 werden dem Gleichwellenfunksystem über einen Rufprozessor RP Nutzsignale zugeführt, die zu einer Zentrale Z gelangen. Von hier werden sie über Modulationszubringer M1, M2, M3, ...einzelnen Sendestationen S1, S2, S3, ... zugeleitet. Diese Modulationszubringer gehören zu einem Netz von Modulationszubringern, innerhalb dessen es zu Leitungsumschaltungen kommen kann, mit der Folge, daß sich die Laufzeit von der Zentrale zu einer bestimmten Sendestation ändert. In jeder Sendestation ist daher ein Laufzeitausgleich erforderlich, damit die Nutzsignalaussendungen durch die einzelnen Sendestationen letztlich synchron erfolgen. Deshalb enthält beispielsweise die Sendestation S1 zwischen ihrem zugehörigen Modulationszubringer M1 und ihrer Nutzsignalsender Sn 1 eine steuerbare Verzögerungsrichtung V3. Die Steuerung erfolgt durch einen Laufzsitkomparator K, dem einerseits zum Laufzeitvergleich Synchronsignale von dem Modulationszubringer M1 zugeführt werden. Andererseits enthält der Laufzeitkomparator drahtlos empfangene Synchronsignale von einem in der Sendestation S1 enthaltenen Synchronsignalempfänger Es 1.In FIG. 1, useful signals are sent to the single-frequency radio system via a call processor RP, which arrive at a center Z. From here, they are fed via modulation feeders M1, M2, M3, ... to individual transmission stations S1, S2, S3, ... These modulation feeders belong to a network of modulation feeders within which line switching can occur, with the result that the runtime changes from the central station to a specific transmitting station. A runtime compensation is therefore required in each transmitter station so that the useful signal transmissions by the individual transmitter stations ultimately take place synchronously. For this reason, for example, the transmission station S1 contains a controllable delay direction V3 between its associated modulation feeder M1 and its useful
Jeweils in einem festen Zeitabstand vor der Aussendung eines Nutzsignal-Sendezyklus gibt die Zentrale Z ein Synchronsignal A (vgl. auch Fig. 2) sowohl auf den Modulationszubringer Ml (und natürlich auf die anderen Modulationszubringer) als auch über ein Verzögerungsglied V1 mit einer Verzögerungszeit T1 auf einen Synchronsignalsender Ss zul drahtlosen übertragung zu den einzelnen Synchronempfängern Es etc. Zum Laufzeitkomparator K gelangt das drahtlos übertragene Synchronsignal im wesentlichen nach der Zeit T1, wenn die restlichen Laufzeiten der drahtlosen übertragungsstrecke vernachlässigt werden. Das über den Modulationszubringer M1 übertragene Synchronsignal erreicht den Laufzeitkomparator nach der Laufzeit T2.At a fixed time interval before the transmission of a useful signal transmission cycle, the central station Z sends a synchronizing signal A (see also FIG. 2) both to the modulation feeder Ml (and of course to the other modulation feeders) and via a delay element V1 with a delay time T1 to a synchronous signal transmitter Ss zul wireless transmission to the individual synchronous receivers Es etc. To the runtime comparator K, the wirelessly transmitted synchronous signal arrives essentially after the time T1 if the remaining running times of the wireless transmission path are neglected. The synchronization signal transmitted via the modulation feeder M1 reaches the runtime comparator after the runtime T2.
Im Laufzeitkomparator K findet nun ein Zeitvergleich zwischen den Synchronisationssignalen B und C statt. Ein aufgrund dieses Vergleiches der Verzögreungseinrichtung V3 zugeführtes Steuersignal bewirkt, daß das Synchronsignal um die Zeit T3 verzögert wird (vgl. D in Fig. 2). Dabei ist T3 = T1 - T2.In Laufzeitkomparator K now a time comparison between the S ynchronisationssignalen B and C will take place. A control signal supplied to the delay device V3 on the basis of this comparison has the effect that the synchronizing signal is delayed by the time T3 (cf. D in FIG. 2). T3 = T1 - T2.
T1 wird so groß gewählt, daß es mindestens so groß ist wie die größte Modulationszubringerlaufzeit zwischen der Zentrale und einer Sendestation. Das Verzögerungsglied V1 kann sich auch zwischen dem Synchronsignalempfängre Es 1 und dem Laufzeitkomparator K befinden, wo es deshalb nochmals mit unterbrochenen Linien eingezeichnet ist.T1 is chosen so large that it is at least as long as the largest modulation feeder run time between the center and a transmitting station. The delay element V1 can also be located between the synchronous
Besonders vorteilhaft ist bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel, daß als Synchronsignalsender Ss der gleiche Sender benutzt werden kann, wie er in den einzelnen Sendestationen als Nutzsignalsender Sn 1 vorgesehen ist. In entsprechender Weise kann als Synchronsignalempfänger Es 1 in den Sendestationen der gleiche Empfänger benutzt werden, wie er auf der Empfangsseite der Nutzsignale als beispielsweise mobiler Nutzsignalempfänger En vorgesehen ist. Da die Nutzsignalsender und insbesondere die Nutzsignalempfänger in einem Gleichwellenfunksystem in größerer Stückzahl vorzusehen sind und daher relativ billig hergestellt werden können, wird auch die mit einem solchen Sender als Synchronsignalsender bzw. mit solchen Empfängern als Synchrosignalempfängern bestückte Synchronisiereinrichtung preiswert einzurichten sein.It is particularly advantageous in the exemplary embodiment shown that the same transmitter can be used as the synchronous signal transmitter Ss, as is provided in the individual transmitter stations as the useful
In Fig. 2 kann nach dem Synchronsignal A in Gestalt eines einer Trägerschwingung aufmodulierten Rechteckimpulses sofort ohne nennenswerten Zeitabstand ein Sendezyklus von Nutzsignalen folgen. Dadurch geht wenig Verkehrszeit für die Synchronisation verloren. Dies ist deshalb möglich, weil das Synchronsignal A zu jeder beliebigen Zeit beginnen kann, da es durch systemeigene Mittel, vorzugsweise durch die Zentrale Z gestartet wird und nicht von einem willkürlichen Sendezyklus eines externen Synchronsignalsenders abhängt.2, after the synchronizing signal A in the form of a square-wave pulse modulated onto a carrier oscillation, a transmission cycle of useful signals can follow immediately without any significant time interval. This means that little traffic time is lost for synchronization. This is possible because the synchronous signal A can start at any time, since it is started by the system's own means, preferably by the center Z, and does not depend on an arbitrary transmission cycle of an external synchronous signal transmitter.
