Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and an electromagnetic guidance device, applied in particular to the tracking of targets. It applies in particular for guiding missiles or intelligent ammunition in any number, for example in the pursuit of targets.
- the precision of guidance must allow this charge to fulfill its office; this precision can vary between 0.1 meter and five meters.
- the highest precision applies to small missiles using the kinetic effect of an penetrator against very small targets (drones or tactical missiles), the least precision is applicable to missiles using a military flash charge weighing several kilograms associated with a proximity rocket against lightly or unarmoured objectives.
- the system relies on one or more remote sensors, generally on the launch platform, which ensure the location of the target and of the missile (s) (or projectiles) launched against this target.
- a tracking radar is equipped with several site and field measurement channels which provide time sharing position measurements of the target and of one and sometimes two missiles which are required to remain in the field of vision of the sensor generally of the order of magnitude of the degree of angle. For this reason, the missile or missiles remain substantially aligned on the moving line going from the radar sensor to the target, hence the name of guidance in alignment of this operating mode.
- a transmission link (remote control) is necessary to communicate to the missile either its position or more generally trajectory correction orders.
- a special receiver on board the missile decodes the beam modulation and determines its position relative to the theoretical guide axis and deduces any correction maneuvers from it.
- the method used for coding the space is generally a two-dimensional scan of a light brush or a double scan in site and deposit of two brushes having a narrow shape in one plane and open in a fan in the other .
- Both methods and their numerous variants have the common denominator of being limited in precision by the size of the diffraction spot and by the precision of the collimation of the beam projector and of the tracking sensor as well as the precision of mechanical tracking.
- This accuracy can be slightly improved at the cost of greater complexity: If the conditions of stationary propagation allow it, one can refine the measurement accuracy by interpolating between several positions of the beam and bring the measurement accuracy down slightly below the diffraction spot without being able to expect much better than a quarter or half of it. For collimation errors, these can in principle be measured and compensated for at the cost of a complex system of collimation.
- Tracking errors except when the tracking loop is closed manually by a human operator, are determined by means of an automatic tracking device; it is therefore theoretically possible to make the reverse correction in the coding of the beam so that the measurement made by the missile originates from the position of the target in the field of observation and not from a fixed mechanical reference.
- the beating beam systems described above are not capable of being extended to the radar wave ranges, because for practicable antenna dimensions in the missiles at play, they do not allow the required precision.
- the modulation is easily detected by a countermeasures receiver, and an interference emission modulated at the same frequency will inevitably lose tracking, which makes such a device very sensitive to interference by a jammer even if it is carried by the target.
- the only modulation at reception is a little less fragile but cannot be used for beam guidance, since the emission is no longer modulated, the missile cannot locate itself.
- the conical scanning technique has been abandoned for radars because of its sensitivity to interference, and also to other causes of fluctuation in amplitude of the received signal, such as the non-stationary nature of the propagation conditions with respect to the speeds. necessarily fairly slow mechanical scanning.
- An object of the invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, in particular by allowing the guidance of vehicles with respect to a radar beam without risk of interference.
- the subject of the invention is a method of electromagnetic guidance of at least one machine, characterized in that the guidance is carried out with respect to the axis of the beam of a monopulse antenna, by coding in the beam space.
- the invention also relates to a device for implementing the above method.
- the main advantages of the invention are that it allows guiding of machines with respect to the antenna beam while ensuring position measurements of a target, that it allows very simple realization of the receivers, that it allows the guidance of machines, very rustic or very small, that it can be easily combined with other means of guidance such as optical means or seeker to obtain multimode guidance and this without adding much to the complexity of the system, that it allows very good precision of the position measurements of the machines, that it makes it possible to send information simultaneously to the machines, and that it is economical.
- - Figure 6 a possible embodiment of a receiver arranged in a machine guided by the above beam; - Figure 7, the position over time of correlation signals to reconstruct at a receiver, the position of the latter relative to the axis of the monopulse antenna, by knowing the signals produced by the channels sum and differences of this antenna.
- the method according to the invention uses the same monopulse antenna to perform spatial coding capable of being used in a beam navigation system.
- the monopulse antenna is for example arranged on a launching platform from which the devices are launched and then guided.
- the antenna reception channel is split in each site and bearing plane into a sum channel and a difference channel.
- the signal received on the difference channel is proportional in amplitude to the depointing of the target and in phase or in phase opposition with the sum signal received from the same target. It results that a coherent processing in phase of these two signals makes it possible to restore the depointing angle ⁇ with its sign, according to the following relation (1):
- ⁇ 2 ⁇ and ⁇ being respectively the signals received on the difference and sum channels, expressed in vector form taking into account the amplitude and the phase.
- Such processing can be done in a time equal to that of the coherent integration of the radar, for example a pulse, hence the name monopulse.
- any conventional jammer carried by the target will only reinforce coherently the sum and difference signals and will facilitate the angular measurement instead of jamming it, hence the great difficulty in jamming the angular measurement of monopulse radars by self-protection jammers.
- a monopulse measurement also provides high accuracy.
- FIG. 1 illustrates the known diagrams of the sum ⁇ and difference ⁇ channels of a monopulse antenna in a system of axes, where the ordinate axis represents the gain G of the antenna as a function of the space angle ⁇ , represented by the abscissa axis, with respect to the antenna axis 1.
- the sum diagram is maximum on this axis, and symmetrical with respect to the latter.
- the signal received on the difference channel is proportional in amplitude to the depointing of the target, identified along the axis of the angles ⁇ , and in phase or in phase opposition with the signal received from the same target on the sum way. It follows that a coherent processing in phase of these two signals makes it possible to restore the depointing angle ⁇ with its sign as indicated by the preceding figure (1).
- a monopulse antenna is therefore used to generate a coded beam in space, with a view to guiding one or more spacecraft, for example missiles or projectiles, which may be in any number.
- This coding of the beam allows a machine, equipped with appropriate receiving means to be located relative to the axis of the beam. This coding is for example carried out by an appropriate modulation of the signals radiated by sum and difference diagrams.
- a receiver then placed in a machine makes it possible to determine the position of the latter relative to the radiation patterns of the antenna, and therefore its position relative to the axis of the antenna. The determination of this position is carried out by decoding or demodulating the signals picked up by the receiver.
- the method according to the invention must use a sum signal and a difference signal in amplitude and in phase. It is therefore necessary that from a simple receiver, a missile is for example able to determine the signals which come from the sum channel and those which come from the difference channel, that is to say that it can determine the amplitudes of sums signals and coherent differences in phase. In fact, it is necessary to mix two signals, one from the sum channel and the other from the difference channel, which are on the same carrier frequency but which must be able to be separated on reception.
- energy is radiated on the sum ⁇ and difference ⁇ diagrams, and the energies thus radiated on the sum diagram and on the difference diagram are marked by means of a distinct modulation, from one diagram to another. , to be able to separate them at the reception.
- the quantities to be determined being amplitudes, amplitude modulations are carried out in preference to phase or frequency modulations for which the amplitude of the carrier wave is not restored.
- the invention advantageously uses the fact that the very structure of the spectrum of an amplitude modulated signal is the sum of the spectrum of the modulation transposed around the frequency of the carrier wave and of a line on the frequency of this carrier.
- Ao [ ⁇ (f - Fo) + ⁇ (f + Fo)] represents the modulation of the carrier and the second term BA [2j ⁇ (f - F 0 )] represents the modulation of the lateral frequency bands.
- Fo represents the frequency of the wave carrier and Ao is a scalar which characterizes the amplitude of this carrier.
- B is another scalar, positive or negative, which characterizes what can be called the modulation depth.
- the symbol ⁇ represents the Dirac function.
- is a condition so that there is in particular no overmodulation of the carrier relative to the lateral bands.
- a superposition for example, of a continuous pure wave, known as CW in the Anglo-Saxon literature, and of an amplitude modulated wave with carrier suppressed on the difference diagram, and this to allow reconstruction an amplitude modulated signal at the receiver of each of the guided vehicles.
- the modulation rate of this signal and its phase are characteristic of the depointing of the machine, more precisely of its position relative to the axis of the monopulse antenna, which is in fact the axis of guidance of the machines.
- the modulation rate which in fact corresponds to the aforementioned modulation depth, gives the depointing value, while the phase sign indicates which side of the antenna axis is located.
- FIG. 2 illustrates, in a Fresnel diagram, this mixture of signals.
- the signal S received by the receiver of a guided vehicle is the sum of the sum signal ⁇ and the difference signal ⁇ amplitude modulated.
- the sum signal ⁇ is for example a continuous wave CW and the difference signal ⁇ a wave modulated according to the second term of the previous relation (2).
- the amplitude demodulation therefore supplies the modulation signal with a sign and an amplitude characteristic of the depointing of the receiver with respect to the monopulse beam, more precisely with respect to the axis of the monopulse antenna.
- One way according to the invention to find the signals from the sum and difference diagrams is for example to determine on reception the modulation depth for the amplitude and to determine the sign of the modulated signal by comparing the phase of the demodulated periodic signal to that of a clock reset by a synchronization signal transmitted on the sum channel. It remains to find waveforms for modulation, which are easy to implement and which make it easy to find the modulation depth.
- FIG. 3 illustrates a form of modulation according to the invention which advantageously allows the modulation depth to be easily found.
- This modulation is a square phase 0, ⁇ modulation.
- the amplitude of the modulation is square, at zero mean value, and from one half-period to another the phase goes from 0 to ⁇ , then from ⁇ to 0, and so on.
- FIG. 3 presents this modulation 31 in a system of axes, where the abscissas t represent time and the ordinates M the modulation. Below the representation of modulation 31, there is the corresponding modulation phase, 0 or ⁇ corresponding to the half-period T / 2.
- FIG. 4 shows, in the same system of axes M, t, the shape of the modulated signal obtained at the level of a receiver.
- the modulation of FIG. 3, exerted on the signal emitted by the difference channel ⁇ is then summed to the signal of the sum channel ⁇ , whose amplitude is Ao, the signal actually varying between + Ao and -Ao.
- the modulation depth B is given by the difference between the amplitude Ao and the maximum amplitude of the modulation. This gap is very easy to obtain. It is proportional to the gain G ⁇ of the antenna on the difference channel, this gain defining the antenna diagram as illustrated in FIG. 1. Likewise, the amplitude Ao is proportional, in the same proportion ratio, to the antenna gain G ⁇ on the sum channel.
- the ratio G ⁇ / G ⁇ gives the value of the depointing with respect to axis 1 of the antenna,
- the synchronization signal can also be an amplitude modulated signal according to a predefined pseudo-random code, compressed by means of a correlator on reception.
- the same transmission channel which makes it possible to send site and deposit synchronization words also makes it possible to send the target position error, object of the pursuit, in site or in deposit measured by the target, to the guided vehicle (s).
- radar using site and field diagrams of the same monopulse antenna, that is to say with the same causes of error, which makes it possible by difference to determine a differential deviation value between the guided devices and the target which eliminates the main part of measurement errors due to imperfections in the monopulse diagram and tracking errors.
- Another solution may consist, for example, in using a pseudo-random code of zero mean value and of finite length for the modulation.
- a signal is obtained whose sign and amplitude represents the deviation from the center of the beam, the mean value of the received signal being the sum signal value.
- the correlation of the signal coming from the demodulation of the envelope of the received signal, with the code used for the transmission in fact provides a pulse whose amplitude relative to the mean value of the amplitude of the received signal and the sign, are equivalent to the ratio G ⁇ / G ⁇ of a conventional monopulse receiver.
- a difficulty can notably arise from the fact that when the depointing is weak, the demodulated signal can be drowned in the noise, and it is then not known at what instant to sample this noise as representing the measurement, unless there is a synchronization which makes it possible to know the instant which corresponds to the correlation peak of the difference channel ⁇ .
- this synchronization it is possible to carry out a preliminary transmission on the advanced sum channel of an uncompressed pulse width, itself modulated in all or nothing amplitude by another pseudo-random code, called sigma code.
- this sigma code is for example used by a correlator in order to determine exactly the correlation instant and synchronize the sampling instant of the difference channels transmitted sequentially a period T and two periods T after the synchronization code .
- a variant of the method according to the invention may for example consist in transmitting on the two difference channels at the same time with two orthogonal codes between them.
- Such a rallying antenna can itself be monopulse, and the initial rallying guidance can then be done on the same beam navigation process, or "beam riding", as that developed previously, but with the possible risk of seeing these measurements strongly disturbed in because of the proximity to the ground and the resulting known multi-path effect.
- the tracking radar thus produced has only one reception channel, unlike the three channels of a conventional monopulse radar.
- the target deviation measurements can of course be used in a tracking loop, but they can also be transmitted via the transmitter to the device or devices to be guided, with appropriate modulation, so that the device performs in particular the determining its position differently from the goal and eliminating most of the tracking errors.
- This same transmission path to the vehicle can also be used to provide the vehicle with all the information it needs to optimize its guidance, such as for example the kinematics data corresponding to the angular speeds of the guide beam, to the distance and at the radial speed of the target.
- the transmitter on the ground can use the antenna diagram to transmit information to the machines, in particular to communicate to them the position of a target being pursued with respect to the antenna beam, which makes it possible to determine their relative positions with respect to to the target, as well as any aforementioned information or other useful for optimizing their guidance.
- the extreme simplicity of the reception channel on board the guided vehicle for example makes it possible to envisage combining it with other guidance means such as those necessary for navigation on an optical beam or even means of guidance such as an end-of-travel seeker to obtain multimode guidance without adding much to the complexity of these other guidance means.
- this same simplicity makes it possible to envisage the method of guidance according to the invention for vehicles, for example missiles or projectiles, very rustic or of very small size.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a possible exemplary embodiment for implementing the method according to the invention. More particularly, this figure shows a possible embodiment of the radar part which in particular emits the guide beam, this part being for example located on a platform.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a possible embodiment of a receiver on board a machine.
- the choice of the emission frequency bands can be made in particular between the Ku, Ka and W bands.
- a selection criterion is linked to the requirements operational, for example in fog or rain.
- the effects of these atmospheric phenomena include an exponential absorption compared to the propagation distance expressed in decibels per kilometer.
- a second effect, in the case of rain, is a retro-reflection on the raindrops generating rain echoes whose behavior is that of mobile echoes with an average radial speed and a spectrum width depending on the length of wind wave and atmospheric turbulence. Measurements and experiments carried out by the applicant have shown that up to distances of the order of 10 km, absorption by water is not a real problem.
- FIG. 5 therefore presents a possible embodiment of the radar part intended in particular for producing the navigation beam.
- This part includes a monopulse antenna 51 consisting of a sum channel V ⁇ , a difference channel in heel V ⁇ S and a difference channel in deposit V ⁇ Q. Electromagnetic isolation, for example greater than 45 dB, is achieved between the sum path and the difference path.
- each difference channel is connected to a modulator 52 which modulates the wave to be transmitted according to a phase modulation 0, ⁇ , as previously defined, and the sum channel is for example connected to a modulator 53 which modulates the amplitude of the wave to be emitted.
- This modulator is for example used when a pseudo-random code of zero value is generated on the sum channel.
- the inputs of the modulators of the difference channel are connected to a microwave switch 54 which switches the signals supplied by a first amplifier 55 to one or the other of these two channels.
- the input of the sum channel modulator is connected to the output of a second amplifier 56.
- the microwave signals supplied to the amplifiers 55, 56 come from the same microwave source 57 via a 3dB coupler 58.
- An amplitude modulator 59 is for example arranged between the microwave source and the coupler. This modulator realizes a modulation with zero average value of the amplitude of the signal which it receives. To this end, it is controlled by an envelope generator 60 which also controls a code generator 61.
- the envelope generator 60 produces the envelope of the aforementioned modulation.
- the code generator 61 is used in particular to provide a preliminary synchronization signal on the sum channel and can therefore control the modulator 53 of the sum channel.
- modulators 52 of the difference channels it is also used to control the modulators 52 of the difference channels to transmit on these channels a signal modulated according to a pseudo-random code with zero mean value, it can also be used to control, as a function of a signal, for example square, supplied by the envelope generator, the passage of the phases from 0 to ⁇ or ⁇ to 0 in the modulators 52 of the difference channels.
- the radar system as described above makes it possible to produce a navigation beam emitted by a monopulse antenna, allowing vehicles to be guided to join this beam, in accordance with the method according to the invention.
- it may also be necessary to use the radar functions at reception in particular to allow position measurements of a target to be tracked, and thus make it possible to control the antenna position, and therefore the direction of its beam, as a function of the position of the target.
- only one reception channel can be used, the sum channel in particular.
- a duplexer, or microwave circulator 62 is therefore placed on the sum channel between the antenna and the modulator 53 of this channel.
- the reception output of this duplexer is for example connected to an input of a mixer 63, the other input of which receives as local oscillator signal, for example a signal from the frequency source.
- the reception signal thus transposed in frequency is transmitted to conventional means 64 for receiving and processing the signal.
- These means are for example synchronized with the emission signals by means of the code generator 61.
- the latter also receives a code intended to provide information to guided vehicles as has been mentioned previously, this code being transmitted by the of the sum route.
- FIG. 6 shows a possible embodiment of a receiver.
- the latter comprises, for example at the input, a filter 71 followed by a direct detection device 72.
- the signal thus filtered and detected is supplied to a linear video amplifier 73 with automatic gain control, the output of which is connected to an analog-digital converter. 74.
- the signal thus digitized is processed by two correlators 75, 76.
- a correlator 75 is assigned to the signal processing of the sum channel and a correlator 76 is assigned to the signal of the difference channel.
- the two correlators nevertheless receive the same signal, which is the reception signal digitized at the output of the converter 74.
- These correlators operate from shift registers with a sampling frequency higher than that of the pseudo code generation clock.
- a correlation peak detector 77 is placed at the output of the correlator assigned to the processing of the sum channel.
- a delay device 78 is connected at the output of the detector 77. From the detection of a correlation peak, this device successively creates a first delay of T and a second delay of 2T. At each delay, a signal is generated.
- a first signal, generated according to the first delay T controls a first gate 79 whose input is connected to the output of the correlator 76 of the processing of the difference channel.
- a second signal generated according to the second delay 2T, controls a second gate 80, the input of which is connected to the output of the correlator 76 of the processing of the difference channel.
- FIG. 7 illustrates the position over time of the signals at the output of the first and of the second gate, of amplitudes ⁇ G and ⁇ S respectively.
- These signals are the signals present at the output of the correlator 76 of the processing of the difference channel T and 2T respectively after the correlation peak 70 at the output of the correlator 75 of the processing of the sum channel.
- the deposit deviation, giving the term B mentioned previously for decoding in deposit, is K. ⁇ G ⁇
- the site difference, giving this term B for decoding in deposit is K. ⁇ S / ⁇
- K is a scale factor
- ⁇ is the amplitude of the signal corresponding to that emitted by the sum channel.
- This amplitude ⁇ is for example the content of the correlator output of the sum channel or the average value of the signal from x to T for the difference channel in bearing 79 and between x + T and x + 2T for the difference channel in elevation, x being the instant of the correlation peak on the sum processing channel.
- a demodulation device 81 connected at the output of the analog-digital converter 74 makes it possible, for example, to decode messages sent by the sum channel.
