Description

AUTOMATIC TRACKING ANTENNA OF SATELLITE WAVE AND GROUND WAVE HAVING 360 DEGREE AZIMUTH ROTATION STRUCTURE}

The present technology relates to satellite signals and terrestrial receiving antennas.

In particular, the present invention relates to a satellite signal and a terrestrial wave receiving antenna which automatically receive a signal within a 360 degree range so as to automatically receive a satellite signal and a terrestrial wave receiving antenna from the outside.

The most necessary thing for modern people is rest. Resting means being in a comfortable position to stop what you are doing and to prevent boredom or fatigue. Modern people enjoy work for a given time on certain days, and spare time on extra days to prevent malaise.

There are various ways to enjoy leisure, but recently, camping and leisure activities have been spotlighted in the suburbs, leaving the rapidly changing city. That is, they spend a lot of time moving out of the city. Accordingly, the demand for satellite broadcasting (BS) is also increasing in order to spend time leisurely.

Satellite broadcasting refers to TV and radio broadcasting that receives and receives stationary satellite signals in space, and transmits and receives electrons in outer space so that there are no radio interferences depending on the terrain, so you can watch clear channels of various fields. have.

In addition, since satellite broadcasting transmits radio waves in space, the area affected by radio waves is wide, so that users can watch various broadcasts without limitations on the border, and can be broadcast regardless of natural disasters or wars.

Such satellite broadcasting is generally used in moving vehicles or ships. For example, satellite broadcasting may be implemented in a form in which an antenna is mounted on a vehicle, a train, a ship, or the like to receive a broadcast in a moving situation. In addition, satellite broadcasting may be implemented in a form in which an antenna is installed in a mobile dwelling, such as a motorhome or a caravan, to receive a signal transmitted from a satellite.

On the other hand, in order to watch satellite broadcasts with clear image quality, the signal waveforms (vertical polarization, horizontal polarization, left hand circular polarization (LHCP), right hand circular polarization (RHCP)) at the appropriate positions of the satellite from which the antenna transmits the signal The signal must be received in time.

To do this, the antenna must be placed in the direction of the satellite. As a method of identifying and tracking existing satellite broadcasts, a method of confirming whether an antenna receiving satellite broadcasts is aimed at a satellite to be tracked through satellite downlink frequency spectrum analysis is used.

However, this method is cumbersome and difficult to install and operate, requiring a comparative analysis of the native downlink frequency spectrum. In addition, an active satellite antenna system that automatically tracks satellites has a problem that the broadcast reception channel is very limited because only a single satellite can track and cannot receive multiple satellite broadcasts simultaneously.

In addition to the problems of the above analysis method, a structural problem of the antenna is also emerging, in particular, the problem of the tilt of the antenna is pointed out.

For example, the reason why the antenna should be tilted is as an example. If the satellite transmits a vertical or horizontal polarization in a position where the antenna and the satellite are not shifted by one degree, the signal should be incident at the 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock directions. .

However, the distance between the antenna and the satellite is very long so that the signal transmitted from the satellite in the slightly twisted position is transmitted to the antenna in a twisted state. For this reason, the antenna must be in the wrong position even if it is placed at the same longitude and latitude as the satellite. Therefore, the antenna should be tilted to the tilted degree of the satellite signal, but the antenna could not be tilted freely.

1 illustrates a problem of a conventional antenna.

Referring to the problem of the conventional antenna through the antenna installed in the vehicle as shown in Figure 1, the conventional antenna is installed in the upper frame of the vehicle, the antenna for receiving the signal of the satellite is bound to have a very large size. When the antenna is tilted at a set height or more than a set angle due to its set size, the antenna collides with the frame of the vehicle so that it cannot be tilted anymore. This tilt angle should be tilted to +90 and -90 in severe cases.

That is, in order to realize a clear satellite broadcast screen, the antenna should not be limited to the tilted angle as necessary, but in the related art, there is a problem in that the tilted angle of the antenna is limited.

2 is a block diagram illustrating a satellite and terrestrial simultaneous receiving auto tracking antenna having a 360 degree azimuth rotation structure installed on a moving body of the present invention.

Satellite and terrestrial wave simultaneous receiving auto tracking antenna having a 360-degree azimuth rotation structure of the present invention is installed on the moving body to move with the moving body. Satellite and terrestrial simultaneous receiving auto tracking antenna having a 360 degree azimuth rotation structure of the present invention is a position calculation unit 100, tilt angle measurement unit 200, satellite position storage unit 300, module position operation unit 400, module control operation The unit 700 includes a signal strength checking unit 500, a rotation sensor 800, and an antenna assembly 600.

The location calculation unit 100 detects satellites for a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) at a set period, and checks whether or not satellites for the satellite navigation system are more than a set number. Position calculation unit 100 may include an antenna 670 for receiving a signal (satellite navigation signal) of a satellite for a separate satellite navigation system, with the antenna 670 can determine the number of satellites for satellite navigation system have. Here, the number of satellites for the satellite navigation system (preset number) measured by the position calculating unit 100 may be preset according to a user, and may be four as an example.

If the number of satellites for the satellite navigation system detected by the location calculation unit 100 is less than the predetermined number, the location calculation unit 100 repeats the detection until the number of satellites for the satellite navigation system becomes more than a predetermined number.

When the position calculating unit 100 detects more satellites for a predetermined number of satellite navigation systems, the position calculating unit 100 calculates a moving position coordinate which is a position of the moving body. Here, the moving position coordinates of the moving body may be represented by X, Y, and Z. In more detail, the position calculating unit 100 uses time information included in a signal (satellite navigation signal) received from a plurality of satellite navigation system satellites, and the received time information between the satellites and the moving object for the plurality of satellite navigation systems. Find distance. A virtual sphere having a radius of the obtained distance (the distance between the satellite for the satellite navigation system and the moving object) can be generated, and the coordinates of the moving object can be specifically determined based on this.

The tilt angle measuring unit 200 may calculate the tilted angle of the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 by using a sensor installed in the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 installed on the moving body. Here, the sensor installed in the antenna 670 may measure how tilted in three axes, how much azimuth, and how rotated by the AHRS (Attitude & Heading Reference System).

The satellite position storage unit 300 stores broadcast position coordinates which are position coordinates of a broadcast satellite transmitting a broadcast signal. Here, the broadcast satellite may be a satellite that transmits a broadcast that the user of the moving body wants to watch. Here, the broadcast position coordinates are stored to be represented by X, Y, and Z like moving position coordinates. Since the broadcast satellite is a fixed satellite on the equator, the broadcast position coordinate is not changed. Therefore, the satellite position storage unit 300 stores a plurality of broadcast position coordinates which are positions of a plurality of broadcast satellites.

The module position calculating unit 400 calculates a position of the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 by calculating a target vector, which is a vector from a moving position coordinate to a broadcast position coordinate. As an example, assuming that the moving position coordinate is A (X1, Y1, Z1) and the broadcasting position coordinate of the broadcast satellite selected by the viewer is B (X2, Y2, Z2), the target vector K is as follows. Can be calculated.

(Equation 1)

The module position calculation unit 400 may calculate the elevation and elevation angles of the broadcast satellite based on the moving body using the moving position coordinates, the broadcast position coordinates, and the target vector. The module position calculating unit 400 may calculate the azimuth angle E and the altitude angle A using Equations 2 and 3 below.

(Equation 2)

(Equation 3)

는 Y축 상의 단위시선벡터,

는 Z축 상의 단위시선벡터, E는 목표벡터의 이동체를 기준으로 방송위성의 고도각이고, A는 방위각임)(Equation 1, 2, 3, K is the target vector in the X, Y, Z coordinate axes, A is the moving position coordinate, B is the broadcasting position coordinate,

Is the unit body vector on the X-axis,

Is the unit eye vector on the Y axis,

Is the unit eye vector on the Z axis, E is the elevation angle of the broadcast satellite, and A is the azimuth angle based on the moving object of the target vector)

On the other hand, the position calculation unit 100 determines that the satellite navigation system is less than the predetermined number while the operation for detecting the satellite for satellite navigation system is repeated more than a predetermined number of times, the surrounding environment is determined to be a poor environment, the module The position calculator 400 performs a blind scan operation on the broadcast satellite.

Here, the blind scan is a technology of searching for a satellite signal (frequency) for a channel input by a user, confirming that the broadcast satellite is a desired broadcast satellite, and receiving a satellite broadcast signal from the desired broadcast satellite.

In addition, the module position calculator 400 checks the latitude and longitude through the position calculator 100 and calculates the tilt angle of the antenna assembly 600 through the latitude and longitude of the moving body. Here, the tilt angle should be calculated because the broadcast satellite is located at a long distance and the waves transmitted by the broadcast satellite are tilted and received.

Through this, the module calculation unit calculates the rotation angle, the degree of height (altitude), and the tilt angle at which the antenna 670 is tilted to direct the antenna assembly 600 to the position of the broadcast satellite.

The module control operation unit 700 rotates, adjusts, and tilts the antenna assembly 600 according to the operation value calculated by the module position operation unit 400. Here, the module control operation unit 700 rotates the shaft (shaft) of the first control motor 621, the second control motor 631, the third control motor 641 to be described later to rotate the antenna assembly 600. And adjust the height and tilt the antenna 670.

The signal strength checking unit 500 measures the strength of the satellite signal of the broadcast satellite. The module control operation unit 700 may precisely control the movement of the antenna assembly 600 by using the signal strength checking unit 500.

For example, each time the module control operation unit 700 operates to tilt the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 by a predetermined angle in the first direction, the strength of the received satellite signal is measured and the satellite signal is measured. When the point where the strength is increased and decreased is measured, the reverse operation signal may be output to the module control operation unit 700 to control the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 to be tilted at a predetermined angle in the second direction. .

In addition, the module control operation unit 700 may change the height of the antenna assembly 600 at the set angle by the set height. That is, the module control operation unit 700 moves the height of the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600 upward by a set height, and then the intensity of the signal measured by the signal strength checking unit 500 decreases at a specific position. In this case, the reverse operation signal is output to the module control operation unit 700 to control the height of the antenna 670 of the antenna assembly 600.

The rotation sensor 800 measures the azimuth angle of the antenna assembly 600. The rotation sensor 800 measures that the antenna assembly 600 rotates 360 degrees in the first direction. The module control operation unit 700 receives the signal from the rotation sensor 800 and when the antenna assembly 600 is rotated 360 degrees in the first direction, thereafter, the antenna assembly 600 in the second direction opposite to the first direction. ) To rotate.

This is because when the antenna assembly 600 continuously rotates in one direction, the wires of the antenna assembly 600 may be twisted and broken.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of a satellite and terrestrial simultaneous reception auto tracking antenna having a 360-degree azimuth rotation structure installed on the moving body of the present invention.

The first control motor 621 is installed on the first plate 622 to be spaced apart from the rotary gear 623. The rotary connecting gear 624 is installed on the shaft of the first control motor 621. The rotary connecting gear 624 and the rotary gear 623 are connected via the rotary connecting belt 625.

The connection between the rotary gear 623 and the rotary connecting gear 624 through the rotary connection belt 625 is to take advantage of the limited space of the first plate 622. In addition, it is also possible to form the second mounting protrusion 661 described above in the lower case 660 by utilizing such a configuration.

The rotation change module 620 is disposed surrounded by the lower case 660. The lower case 660 is composed of a first lower case 661 and a second lower case 662. The second lower case 662 may be integrally formed with the fixing bracket 610.

The second lower case 662 has a guide groove 664 formed on an opposite surface (upper surface) of the surface facing the moving body. Guide groove 664 is formed in the shape of a circle. In addition, the second lower case 662 is provided with a block wall 665. The block wall 665 blocks the sensor signal. The block wall 665 serves as a reference for the rotation sensor 800.

On the other hand, the roller 900 is installed on the first plate 622. The roller 900 is disposed in the guide groove 664 in the first plate 622 and supports the first plate 622 from the first lower case 662. The roller 900 assists rotation when the first plate 622 rotates with the rotary gear 623 by the operation of the first control motor 621.

Meanwhile, when the roller 900 installed on the first plate 622 is disposed in a shape corresponding to the guide groove 664, the rotation sensor 800 is installed on the first plate 622 in the corresponding shape. Therefore, when the roller 900 is disposed in the guide groove 664, the rotation sensor 800 is also disposed in the guide groove 664. The rotation sensor 800 may be, for example, an optical sensor. Therefore, as an example, the rotation sensor 800 irradiates light in one direction.

The rotation sensor 800 is connected to the module control operation unit 700. The module control operation unit 700 operates the first control motor 621 to rotate the signal of the broadcast satellite to rotate 360 degrees while changing the direction to the first direction and the second direction. The reason why the module control operation unit 700 operates the first control motor 621 in this way is that when the control motor 621 rotates only in the first direction to track the satellite signal, the wires not shown are continuously twisted and damaged. Because it becomes. Therefore, the module control operation unit 700 controls the first control motor 621 to rotate only 360 degrees.

In this case, the module control operation unit 700 operates the first control motor 621 to rotate the first plate 622 in the first direction. Here, the roller 900 rotates and supports the first plate 622 along the guide groove 664. Here, the rotation sensor 800 installed on the first plate 622 also rotates along the guide groove 644. The gap between the first plate 622 and the guide groove 644 is formed by the roller 900 so as not to block the sensor signal of the rotation sensor 800.

When the first plate 622 is rotated and the sensor signal of the rotation sensor 800 is blocked by the block wall 665, the rotation sensor 800 applies a signal to the module control operation unit 700. Then, the module control operation unit 700 causes the first control motor 621 to operate in a second direction opposite to the first direction when operating the first control motor 621 to track the satellite signal. In this case, when the first plate 622 is rotated in the second direction and the sensor signal of the rotation sensor 800 is blocked by the block wall 665 again, the module control operation unit 700 controls the first signal when tracking the satellite signal. The motor 621 is operated in the first direction again to allow the first plate 622 to rotate in the first direction.

This can prevent the wires from being twisted.

The height change module 630 includes a second control motor 631, a second plate 632, and an arm 633. The second control motor 631 is disposed on an outer side of the upper surface of the first plate 622. The second control motor 631 is installed to have a direction intersecting with the first control motor 621. That is, the rotation direction of the shaft of the second control motor 631 is disposed in a direction not penetrating the first plate 622. Preferably, two second control motors 631 are installed. The two second control motor 631 is preferably installed in the opposite direction. That is, the angle connecting the shaft of the second control motor 631 is preferably 180 degrees. This is because the arm part 633 is installed on the shaft of the second control motor 631, and the arm part 633 preferably supports the tilt change module 640 on both sides.

The arm part 633 includes a length part 634 and a bent part 635. One side of the arm 633 is connected to the second control motor 631, the other side is connected to the second plate 632. Here, the bent portion 635 of the arm portion 633 is fixed to the lower surface of the second plate 632.

Here, the shaft of the second control motor 631 is rotated so that the arm portion 633 is moved in an arc. As the arm 633 moves, the second plate 632 moves in an arc.

The tilt change module 640 includes a third control motor 641, a third plate 642, a tilt gear 643, a tilt medium gear 644, and a tilt connection belt 645.

The tilt gear 643 is rotatably installed on the second plate 632. That is, although the second plate 632 is fixed, the tilt gear 643 is installed to rotate on the upper surface of the second plate 632. The third plate 642 is disposed on the tilt gear 643. The third plate 642 is rotated together as the tilt gear 643 rotates. An installation hole is formed at one side of the second plate 632. The third control motor 641 is installed on the second plate 632 so that the shaft passes through the installation hole. That is, the third control motor 641 is installed between the second plate 632 and the third plate 642 so that the shaft passing through the mounting hole of the second plate 632 is disposed.

The tilt mediated gear 644 is installed on the shaft of the third control motor 641. The tilt mediated gear 644 is rotated according to the rotation of the shaft of the third control motor 641. The tilt mediating gear 644 and the tilt gear 643 are connected via the tilt connection belt 645.

The third plate 642 may be provided with a separate bracket to install the antenna 670. As described above, the antenna 670 may be manufactured to receive both satellite broadcast signals and terrestrial signals.
