技术领域 Technical field
本发明涉及信号分析处理和无线信号测向领域, 具体说涉及一种组合运用包含方 向性天线的多天线单元进行空间信号分析处理和信号源测向的方法, 以及可以实现该分 析处理方法和 /或信号源测向方法的系统。 背景技术  The present invention relates to the field of signal analysis processing and wireless signal direction finding, and more particularly to a method for combining spatial signal analysis processing and signal source direction finding using a multi-antenna unit including a directional antenna, and the analysis processing method and/or Or a system of signal source direction finding methods. Background technique
目前, 主要是利用单一全向天线对各频点处信号的幅度、 场强、 电平大小等参数 进行测量实现对电磁环境的信号分析, 这样测到的值是各个信号叠加的结果, 无法分清 信号的组成与结构, 也就很难确定是否存在同频干扰和多径干扰, 以及干扰的频率范围 和干扰的强度。  At present, it is mainly to use a single omnidirectional antenna to measure the amplitude, field strength, level and other parameters of the signal at each frequency point to realize the signal analysis of the electromagnetic environment, and the measured value is the result of superposition of each signal, and cannot be distinguished. The composition and structure of the signal makes it difficult to determine whether there are co-channel interference and multipath interference, as well as the frequency range of the interference and the strength of the interference.
目前的测向方法根据体制的不同, 性能差异较大。 其中一些测向方法只能给出单 一示向度, 如相位测向、 大音点测向等, 另一些方法能给出多个示向度, 如单天线旋转 测向、空间谱估计。但是电磁空间信号存在很大的复杂性, 同频信号、多径信号的存在, 以及信号本身的频谱变化和传播衰落使得现有测向技术体制面临巨大困境,其测向精度 及可靠性随着电磁环境的复杂程度急速下降。现有测向技术体制中空间谱估计的方法虽 然能在一定程度上解决这些问题,但由于其对于模型的敏感性及处理能力受天线单元数 量限制, 在较复杂电磁环境下的应用也受到很大限制, 而且空间谱估计的天线阵列体积 较大, 不利于实现便携式测向。  The current direction finding method differs greatly depending on the system. Some of the direction finding methods can only give a single degree of orientation, such as phase direction finding, large sound point direction finding, etc. Other methods can give multiple degrees of orientation, such as single antenna rotation direction finding and spatial spectrum estimation. However, the electromagnetic space signal has great complexity. The existence of the same frequency signal, multipath signal, and the spectrum change and propagation fading of the signal itself make the existing direction finding technology system face a huge dilemma. Its direction finding accuracy and reliability The complexity of the electromagnetic environment has dropped dramatically. Although the method of spatial spectrum estimation in the existing direction finding technology system can solve these problems to some extent, its sensitivity to the model and its processing ability are limited by the number of antenna elements, and its application in the more complex electromagnetic environment is also very The large limit, and the spatial spectrum estimation of the antenna array is large, which is not conducive to the realization of portable direction finding.
幅度测向中有一种双信道比幅测向方法, 利用两副正交的艾德考克天线接收电势 的比值确定来波方向, 并利用信道均衡技术消除信道增益不一致的影响。 但是, 这种实 现方式不论从实现成本还是实际效果来看都是不可取的。 首先, 实现多信道均衡将付出 很高的成本代价, 另外, 在技术效果上存在很多缺陷, 一方面, 利用接收电势做比值很 容易因受到噪声和多径信号的影响而很不稳定, 另一方面, 利用该比值估算方位将由于 多径信号的存在而出现固有的偏差。 发明内容  In the amplitude direction finding, there is a two-channel ratio amplitude direction finding method. The ratio of the received potentials is determined by the ratio of the two orthogonal Edeck antennas, and the channel equalization technique is used to eliminate the influence of the channel gain inconsistency. However, this way of implementation is not desirable in terms of both cost of implementation and actual results. First of all, the realization of multi-channel equalization will incur a high cost. In addition, there are many defects in the technical effect. On the one hand, the ratio of the receiving potential is easily unstable due to the influence of noise and multipath signals. Aspects, using this ratio to estimate the orientation will inherently deviate due to the presence of multipath signals. Summary of the invention
本发明的一个目的在于解决现有测向方法无预先分析处理而出现测向不准确的技 术问题, 提供一种能够分析信号的组成、 结构的分析处理方法。 - - 本发明采用的技术方案如下: 一种多天线单元信号分析处理方法, 包括如下步骤: 步骤 1, 采用第一和第二天线同步接收信号, 至少第一天线为定向天线, 二副天线 具有不同的方向性; An object of the present invention is to solve the technical problem that the existing direction finding method has inaccurate direction finding without prior analysis processing, and to provide an analysis and processing method capable of analyzing the composition and structure of the signal. The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A multi-antenna unit signal analysis processing method includes the following steps: Step 1: Synchronously receiving signals by using first and second antennas, at least a first antenna is a directional antenna, and two antennas have Different directionality;
步骤 2, 对定向天线和另一天线同步接收到的信号分别进行在一定长度时间窗口内 的短时统计分析, 得到二者的短时统计分析值在相应分析域的一分析点处的比值(如统 计分析方法采用短时傅里叶变换时, 可以取变换结果中某频点处的幅度谱比值), 其中, 所述时间窗口的长度可调节, 且大于所有信号 (在此指所有主要信号, 不考虑经多次反 射的极弱信号) 的最长多径时延;  Step 2: Perform short-term statistical analysis on the signals received by the directional antenna and the other antenna simultaneously in a certain length of time window, and obtain a ratio of the short-term statistical analysis values of the two at an analysis point of the corresponding analysis domain ( For example, when the statistical analysis method adopts the short-time Fourier transform, the amplitude spectrum ratio at a certain frequency point in the transformation result may be taken, wherein the length of the time window is adjustable, and is greater than all signals (herein all the main signals) , the longest multipath delay that does not consider the extremely weak signal that is reflected multiple times);
步骤 3, 根据所述比值的变化特征确定信号的组成和 /或干扰强度。  Step 3: Determine a composition of the signal and/or an interference strength according to the variation characteristic of the ratio.
优选地, 在步骤 3中, 根据统计值 σ2测定信号所受干扰的强度, σ2的一种计算方 Preferably, in step 3, the intensity of the interference to the signal is determined according to the statistical value σ 2 , a calculation method of σ 2
Μ 式为: a2=y(ln(D(S,t.,T))-Df , 其中, 5=^ ~~ ; ,r)为根据步 骤 2在第 个时间窗口在一分析点 处计算的比值; 为自然数, i≤j≤M,M为大于 ί 的自然数; 当统计值大于某个门限值 ς时, 可认为所述信号存在同频异源信号。 在此, 如采用频域的频点进行分析, 则 为 J'iy。 式中取对数是为了均衡 ) ,^Γ)比值的分子和分母对比值变化的贡献。 由于干扰信号 比原信号高很多时, 比值 的变化也将趋缓, 所以统计值 σ2在一定程度上表征 信号的混合程度, 当两个同频异源信号的大小相当时, 统计值 σ2最可能取得最大值。 在计算 σ2时, 要选取 D(^,t.,r)中有效的数据, /) t.,r)的有效性由第一和第二天线 的短时统计分析值的大小测定。 Μ is: a 2 = y(ln(D(S, t., T))-Df , where 5=^ ~~ ; , r) is calculated at the analysis point according to step 2 in the first time window The ratio is; for natural numbers, i ≤ j ≤ M, M is a natural number greater than ί; when the statistic is greater than a certain threshold ,, the signal can be considered to have the same frequency heterogeneous signal. Here, if the frequency domain is used for analysis, it is J'iy. The logarithm of the formula is used to equalize the contribution of the numerator and denominator of the ratio. Since the interference signal is much higher than the original signal, the change of the ratio will also slow down. Therefore, the statistical value σ 2 indicates the degree of mixing of the signal to a certain extent. When the magnitudes of the two same-frequency heterologous signals are equivalent, the statistical value σ 2 Most likely to get the maximum. When calculating σ 2 , the data valid in D(^, t., r) is selected, and the validity of /) t., r) is determined by the magnitude of the short-term statistical analysis values of the first and second antennas.
本发明的第二个目的在于提供一种简单、 准确的测向方法, 该测向方法可以利用 通过上述分析处理方法确定的信号组成信息。 本发明采用的技术方案为: 一种多天线单元信号测向方法, 包括如下步骤: 步骤 1,采用第一和第二天线同步接收信号, 其中, 第一天线为可旋转的定向天线, 所述第一天线的指向可相对独立调整, 第二天线为全向天线或者指向固定的定向天线, 在接收信号时, 使第一天线旋转, 如第二天线为定向天线, 使其旋转至一适当指向后固 定; 步骤 2, 对第一和第二天线同步接收到的信号同步进行在一定长度时间窗口内的短 时统计分析, 得到二者的短时统计分析值在频域的一频点处的幅度谱比值, 其中, 所述 时间窗口的长度大于所有信号 (在此指所有主要信号, 不考虑经无穷反射的极弱信号) 的最长多径时延; 步骤 3, 确定幅度谱比值与方位角的对应关系, 并据此得到幅度谱比值关于方位角 的数据曲线。 优选地, 还可以包括步骤 4, 即根据所述数据曲线估计可能的来波方向数, 以及各 来波方向信号参数, 并将确定的各值作为初值, 利用第一天线的方向性函数的加权叠加 模型对测得的数据曲线利用数值分析的最优化方法求解,得到来波方向数和各来波方向 信号参数的最佳优化值。 A second object of the present invention is to provide a simple and accurate direction finding method which can utilize signal composition information determined by the above analysis processing method. The technical solution adopted by the present invention is: A multi-antenna unit signal direction finding method, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Synchronously receiving signals by using first and second antennas, wherein the first antenna is a rotatable directional antenna, The orientation of the first antenna can be relatively independently adjusted. The second antenna is an omnidirectional antenna or a fixed directional antenna. When receiving a signal, the first antenna is rotated. If the second antenna is a directional antenna, it is rotated to an appropriate orientation. Post-fixed; Step 2: Perform short-term statistical analysis on the signals synchronously received by the first antenna and the second antenna in a certain length of time window, and obtain an amplitude spectrum ratio of the short-term statistical analysis values of the two in a frequency domain. The length of the time window is greater than the longest multipath delay of all signals (here, all major signals, regardless of the extremely weak signal that is infinitely reflected); Step 3, determining the correspondence between the amplitude spectrum ratio and the azimuth angle Relationship, and according to this, the data curve of the amplitude spectrum ratio with respect to the azimuth is obtained. Preferably, the method further includes a step 4 of estimating a possible number of incoming waves according to the data curve, and each of the incoming wave direction signal parameters, and using the determined values as initial values, using a directivity function of the first antenna. The weighted superposition model solves the measured data curve by the numerical optimization method, and obtains the optimal value of the incoming wave direction and the signal parameters of each incoming wave direction.

具体实施方式 本发明的分析处理方法和测向方法主要根据定向天线的方向图以及多天线的组合 运用来实现。 下面结合附图对本发明的具体实施方式作详细描述。 BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The analysis processing method and the direction finding method of the present invention are mainly implemented based on a directional antenna pattern and a combined use of multiple antennas. The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
如图 1和 2所示, 本发明的分析处理及测向系统包括天线单元 1, 接收单元 2, 数据 处理单元 3和显示单元 4, 所述天线单元 1包括至少二副天线, 分别为第一天线 11和第二 天线 12, 所述天线中至少有一副是定向天线, 在本实施例中, 至少该第一天线 11为定向 天线, 该定向天线的指向可相对独立调整, 即可以使其指向固定, 也可以使其旋转 (以 一定速度改变其指向);所述数据处理单元 3对天线单元的至少包含一个定向天线的双天 线组合各自测得的信号数据进行同步分析处理; 所述显示单元 4用于显示数据处理单元 分析处理的结果。  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the analysis processing and direction finding system of the present invention includes an antenna unit 1, a receiving unit 2, a data processing unit 3, and a display unit 4. The antenna unit 1 includes at least two antennas, respectively The antenna 11 and the second antenna 12, at least one of the antennas is a directional antenna. In this embodiment, at least the first antenna 11 is a directional antenna, and the orientation of the directional antenna can be relatively independently adjusted, that is, it can be pointed Fixed, it can also be rotated (change its pointing at a certain speed); the data processing unit 3 performs synchronous analysis processing on the signal data measured by the two antenna combinations of the antenna unit including at least one directional antenna; Unit 4 is used to display the results of the data processing unit analysis process.
该天线单元 1较典型的配置为: (1 ) 一副全向天线和一副定向天线, 这种组合的特 点是既能用于信号分析这种静态的应用, 即单次分析中不需要旋转天线的应用, 又能用 于信号测向的动态应用, 即需要旋转天线的应用; 同时, 该种配置并不会过多增加天线 单元 1的体积和重量, 因此可采用便携式应用形式, 当然也可用于车载和固定站等形式; ( 2) 两副可旋转的定向天线, 其中, 一副定向天线为主旋转天线, 用于实现各种角速 度的旋转, 另一副为辅助旋转天线, 用于辅助测量, 这种组合也可以再添加一副全向天 线, 主要用于车载或固定站。  The antenna unit 1 is typically configured as follows: (1) an omnidirectional antenna and a pair of directional antennas, the combination of which can be used for static applications such as signal analysis, that is, no rotation is required in a single analysis. The application of the antenna can also be used for the dynamic application of the signal direction finding, that is, the application that needs to rotate the antenna; at the same time, the configuration does not excessively increase the size and weight of the antenna unit 1, so that the portable application form can be used, of course It can be used in the form of vehicles and fixed stations; (2) Two rotatable directional antennas, one of which is a main rotating antenna for rotating various angular velocities and the other is an auxiliary rotating antenna for Auxiliary measurement, this combination can also add an omnidirectional antenna, mainly for on-board or fixed stations.
为了能更好地实现信号分析处理与测向功能, 该天线单元 1中每个定向天线的指向 应该可以相对独立调整, 且可以由数据处理单元 3计算出定向天线的最佳指向。 定向天 线旋转时, 要尽量围绕天线的中心进行, 这样可以减小旋转引起的信号相移, 从而避免 给信号分析和测向带来模型偏差。 由于一般的天线形状都具有对称性, 所以天线的中心 一般指天线的对称中心线。 In order to better implement the signal analysis processing and the direction finding function, the orientation of each directional antenna in the antenna unit 1 should be relatively independently adjustable, and the data processor unit 3 can calculate the optimal orientation of the directional antenna. When the directional antenna rotates, it should be carried out around the center of the antenna as much as possible, so as to reduce the phase shift of the signal caused by the rotation, thereby avoiding Bring model bias to signal analysis and direction finding. Since the general antenna shape has symmetry, the center of the antenna generally refers to the symmetrical center line of the antenna.
该接收单元 2如图 1所示, 一般有两个以上接收通道, 并包含一个同步控制电路, 使得可以同步测量各天线单元的信号参数, 在本实施例中采用二副天线, 可以对应配置 二个接收通道,分写为对应第一天线 11的第一接收通道 21和对应第二天线 12的第二接收 通道 22, 当然, 也可以采用如图 2所示的单通道, 通过单通道的快速切换, 在同步电路 控制下实现两天线信号的近似同步接收。接收单元包括混频电路和受控于该数据处理单 元 3的锁相环路, 该数据处理单元 3在开始分析时向锁相环路发出本振信号相位锁定信 号, 以便在数据分析开始后, 使本振信号的频率和相位保持不变。 在此, 由于本振信号 是用于对采样数据进行下变频的, 如果信号采集时锁相环路继续工作, 本振信号频率和 相位可能发生漂移, 导致信号接收特性随时间变化从而影响信号分析的稳定性以及信号 源测向的数值模型求解。  As shown in FIG. 1 , the receiving unit 2 generally has two or more receiving channels, and includes a synchronous control circuit, so that the signal parameters of each antenna unit can be measured synchronously. In this embodiment, two antennas are used, which can be configured correspondingly. The receiving channels are respectively divided into a first receiving channel 21 corresponding to the first antenna 11 and a second receiving channel 22 corresponding to the second antenna 12. Of course, a single channel as shown in FIG. 2 can also be used, which is fast through a single channel. Switching, the approximate synchronous reception of the two antenna signals is realized under the control of the synchronization circuit. The receiving unit includes a mixing circuit and a phase locked loop controlled by the data processing unit 3, and the data processing unit 3 sends a local oscillator signal phase lock signal to the phase locked loop at the beginning of the analysis, so that after the data analysis starts, Keep the frequency and phase of the local oscillator signal unchanged. Here, since the local oscillator signal is used to down-convert the sampled data, if the phase-locked loop continues to work during signal acquisition, the frequency and phase of the local oscillator signal may drift, resulting in signal reception characteristics changing with time and affecting signal analysis. The stability and the numerical model of the source direction finding.
以下就两副可旋转定向天线的配置进行说明。利用上述分析处理、测向系统进行信 号源测向之前,先对相应频段信号进行信号处理分析, 初步判断同频异源信号的有无及 大概数量, 本发明的对信号分析处理的过程如下:  The following describes the configuration of two sets of rotatable directional antennas. Before using the above analysis processing and direction finding system to perform signal direction finding, first perform signal processing analysis on the corresponding frequency band signals, and initially determine the presence and the approximate number of the same frequency heterogeneous signals. The process of analyzing and processing the signals of the present invention is as follows:
首先, 旋转第一天线 11, 纪录一频点处的电场强度采样值等指标, 初步判断来波 的可能方向, 并从中筛选出两个可能的同频异源信号的来波方向; 然后, 将第一和第二 天线朝向这两个信号的来波方向, 并尽量避免相互影响; 最后, 通过数据处理单元 3对 两路天线信号的分析处理,判断是否存在多径信号和同频异源信号, 并利用频谱结构差 异和信号幅度的变化差异对多径信号和同频异源信号进行区分,利用信号幅度的差异对 直达信号和多径信号进行区分,初步判定信号的组成和结构。如果对各个可能来波方向 逐一进行判别都没有发现同频异源信号时,可判断空间中此处无同频异源信号或同频异 源的干扰信号极小。数据处理单元 3主要是根据到达定向天线的不同来波方向信号的增 益由定向天线的方向性函数决定这一特性进行分析处理。下面对数据处理单元 3的分析 处理方法进行详细介绍。  First, the first antenna 11 is rotated, and the electric field intensity sampling value at a frequency point is recorded, and the possible directions of the incoming waves are initially determined, and the direction of the incoming waves of the two possible co-channel heterogeneous signals is screened therefrom; The first and second antennas face the direction of the incoming waves of the two signals, and try to avoid mutual influence. Finally, the data processing unit 3 analyzes and processes the two antenna signals to determine whether there are multipath signals and co-channel heterogeneous signals. And distinguish the multipath signal and the same frequency heterogeneous signal by the difference of the spectrum structure and the difference of the signal amplitude, and distinguish the direct signal and the multipath signal by using the difference of the signal amplitude, and initially determine the composition and structure of the signal. If the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is not found for each possible direction of the incoming wave, it can be judged that there is no interference signal of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal or the same-frequency alien in the space. The data processing unit 3 mainly analyzes and analyzes the characteristics of the directional antenna based on the gain of the different directional signals arriving at the directional antenna. The analysis and processing method of the data processing unit 3 will be described in detail below.
同频异源信号的差异主要表现在频谱结构和频谱变化规律, 其中, 该频谱结构包 括中心频率、频带宽度和频谱形状等; 该频谱变化规律主要指信号各频率分量幅度和相 位随时间的变化。  The difference of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is mainly reflected in the spectrum structure and the spectrum variation law. The spectrum structure includes the center frequency, the frequency bandwidth and the spectrum shape. The spectrum variation law mainly refers to the variation of the amplitude and phase of each frequency component of the signal with time. .

在短时统计分析方法采用短时傅里叶变换时, 本发明的分析处理方法的具体步骤 如下:  When the short-term statistical analysis method employs the short-time Fourier transform, the specific steps of the analytical processing method of the present invention are as follows:
步骤 1:保持主旋转天线和辅助旋转天线各自固定指向一定的角度, 并大致指向可 能的来波方向; 其中, 二副天线具有不同的方向性, 所谓不同方向性可能是两副天线的 方向性函数不同 (这样任何时候下其方向性都不同), 也可能是两副天线的方向性函数 相同, 但是天线的指向不同;  Step 1: Keep the main rotating antenna and the auxiliary rotating antenna fixed at a certain angle and roughly point to the possible incoming wave direction; wherein the two antennas have different directivity, the so-called different directivity may be the directivity of the two antennas. The functions are different (so that their directivity is different at any time), or the directivity functions of the two antennas are the same, but the antennas are pointing differently;
步骤 2:对二副固定天线同步接收的信号分别作短时统计分析,得到二者的短时统 计分析值在一频点处的幅度谱比值,在此, 可以根据两副固定天线单元同步接收的信号 的短时统计分析值的大小共同确定所述幅度谱比值的有效性。下面分析采用的短时统计 分析方法是时间窗口内的短时傅立叶频谱计算值,当然对某些应用也可以采用其他统计 值, 如时间窗口内电压随时间的积分测量值, 小波变换等。  Step 2: Perform short-term statistical analysis on the signals simultaneously received by the two fixed antennas, and obtain the amplitude spectrum ratios of the short-term statistical analysis values at a frequency point. Here, the two fixed antenna units can be synchronously received. The magnitude of the short-term statistical analysis values of the signals collectively determine the validity of the amplitude spectral ratio. The short-term statistical analysis method used in the analysis below is the short-time Fourier spectrum calculation value in the time window. Of course, other statistical values may be used for some applications, such as integral measurement of voltage over time in time window, wavelet transform, and the like.
对信号做短时统计分析的时间窗口需要有一定的长度, 这个长度要大于所有主要 多径信号中最长的时延,对于如图 2所示的单信道时间切换的实现方式, 所述时间窗口 的长度还要大于信道切换的时间间隔。如果时间窗口的长度不能满足上述要求, 所述信 号短时统计分析值的比值在没有同频异源信号干扰的情况下也可能发生急剧的波动。以 多径信号的影响为例说明,对天线信号进行加窗处理时, 时延不同的信号数据之间除了 存在不同时延以外, 在边缘处信号也有差异, 例如, 对于时间窗口(^, 2), 直达信号 的数据为 ^(0 ( <ί<ί2),则延时为 Γ0的多径信号数据为 ¾(② {tx+T0<t<t2+T0)a因此, 实际上存在且只存在多径信号时, 由于时间窗口内存在相异数据, 所述幅度谱比值随时 间也会有一定的波动,这也说明现有技术的双信道比幅测向方法利用两副天线测得的实 - - 时电压值 (相当于时间窗口长度为 0)做比值是不可取的, 因为可能受多径信号的影响 而剧烈波动。根据多径时延的一般分布,我们认为时间窗口长度一般要大于等于 3微秒, 否则信号短时统计分析值比值的稳定性会受到严重影响。时间窗口长度越大, 越有利于 减小多径信号对所述比值稳定性的影响。但是, 时间窗口太长会导致数据长度过长, 从 而增大后续数据处理的难度, 因此一方面时间窗口不能太长, 另一方面, 应该对信号进 行充分的降频之后再进行数据统计分析,最好能在采样率最低的基带进行。例如对于频 带宽度为 300kHz的已调信号, 可以通过模拟或数字的滤波、 混频方法先将信号频带搬 移到 0Hz至 300kHz的位置, 再对信号进行统计分析。 另外, 统计分析采用短时傅立叶 变换时, 多径时延 T对应产生 e—7^的相移, 这给模型分析带来很多困难, 同时也使所 述信号短时统计分析值的比值随时间波动增大,但是降频到基带处理时, 若多径时延也 不太大, 则该项通常都接近于 1, 从而简化了信号模型, 同时能减小多径时延对比值波 动的影响, 这里所指基带宽度不超过信号带宽。 The time window for short-time statistical analysis of the signal needs to have a certain length, which is greater than the longest delay of all the major multipath signals. For the implementation of the single channel time switching as shown in FIG. 2, the time is The length of the window is also greater than the time interval of channel switching. If the length of the time window does not satisfy the above requirements, the ratio of the short-term statistical analysis values of the signal may also be sharply fluctuated without interference of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal. Taking the influence of the multipath signal as an example, when the antenna signal is windowed, there are differences in the signal at the edge except for the different delays of the signal data with different delays, for example, for the time window (^, 2 ), the data of the direct signal is ^(0 ( <ί<ί 2 ), and the multipath signal data with a delay of Γ 0 is 3⁄4 (2 {t x +T 0 <t<t 2 +T 0 ) a In fact, when there is only a multipath signal, since the difference data exists in the time window, the amplitude spectrum ratio may fluctuate with time, which also illustrates the prior art dual channel ratio direction finding method. Two antennas measured - - The ratio of the voltage value (corresponding to the length of the time window is 0) is not desirable because it may fluctuate drastically due to the influence of the multipath signal. According to the general distribution of multipath delay, we believe that the length of the time window is generally greater than or equal to 3 microseconds, otherwise the stability of the signal short-term statistical analysis value ratio will be seriously affected. The larger the time window length, the more advantageous it is to reduce the effect of the multipath signal on the stability of the ratio. However, if the time window is too long, the data length will be too long, which will increase the difficulty of subsequent data processing. Therefore, on the one hand, the time window cannot be too long. On the other hand, the signal should be fully down-converted before statistical analysis is performed. It is best to perform at the baseband with the lowest sampling rate. For example, for a modulated signal with a bandwidth of 300 kHz, the signal band can be moved to a position of 0 Hz to 300 kHz by analog or digital filtering and mixing methods, and then the signal is statistically analyzed. In addition, when the statistical analysis uses the short-time Fourier transform, the multipath delay T corresponds to the phase shift of e- 7 ^, which brings many difficulties to the model analysis, and also makes the ratio of the short-term statistical analysis value of the signal with time. The fluctuation increases, but when the frequency is reduced to baseband processing, if the multipath delay is not too large, the term is usually close to 1, which simplifies the signal model and reduces the influence of the multipath delay contrast value fluctuation. , The baseband width referred to here does not exceed the signal bandwidth.

The limit case is that when the directivity of the two directional antennas is good enough, the directions of the two different frequency signals are sufficiently different, so that each pair of directional antennas receives only one of the direct and multipath signals of one of the signals. When the signal is signaled, (^ν., , Γ) varies from zero to infinity. In addition, in this process, the influence of background noise should be considered. The influence of background noise is that a constant is superimposed on the numerator and denominator of (ν., ,Γ). Therefore, the background noise should be measured first in the analysis process, and then The corresponding background noise estimates are subtracted from the numerator and denominator of ^ν., ,Γ).

时间窗口内多径信号引起的波动可以通过增大时间窗口的长度来减小,而同频异源 信号引起的指标 £>( w。,,r)的波动却与时间窗口的长度无关。当指标 )( w。,,r)的波动非 常明显时, 可以判定为存在同频异源信号。 而当指标 £>( 。,, 的波动较小时, 波动可 能由较小的同频异源信号造成,也可能仅仅由多径信号造成,此时可以根据 £>( 。,,r)的 波动对时间窗口的长度有无敏感性来判断造成波动的主体是否为同频异源信号。 因此, 增大时间窗口的长度可以提高系统分辨多径信号与同频异源信号的能力。当同频异源信 号的其中一个功率很小时,就要尽量增大这个时间窗口的长度以提高分别率。而当时间 窗口并不很大, 而频带内各频点处的指标 £>( w。,,r)都几乎没有波动时, 可以认为只有 一个来波方向。 由于路径相差 lkm造成的时延约为 3.333 |iS, 分析用的时间窗口可以取 参考值 1ms。  The fluctuation caused by the multipath signal in the time window can be reduced by increasing the length of the time window, while the fluctuation of the index £>(w,,,r) caused by the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is independent of the length of the time window. When the fluctuation of the index (w, ,,r) is very obvious, it can be determined that there is a co-channel heterogeneous signal. When the fluctuation of the index £>(,,, is small, the fluctuation may be caused by a small inter-frequency heterogeneous signal, or it may be caused only by a multipath signal, which can be based on the fluctuation of £>(,,,r). Whether there is sensitivity to the length of the time window to determine whether the subject causing the fluctuation is a co-channel heterogeneous signal. Therefore, increasing the length of the time window can improve the ability of the system to resolve multipath signals and co-channel heterogeneous signals. When one of the powers of the heterogeneous signal is very small, it is necessary to increase the length of the time window to increase the separation rate. When the time window is not large, the index at each frequency point in the frequency band is £>(w.,, r) When there is almost no fluctuation, it can be considered that there is only one incoming wave direction. Since the delay caused by the path difference lkm is about 3.333 |iS, the time window for analysis can take the reference value 1ms.

Thereby, the interfered portion and the undisturbed portion can be found, and for the disturbed portion, the degree of interference can be evaluated. In addition, signal separation and reduction can also be performed according to this. For example, for a signal whose spectrum is symmetric about the center frequency, it is found by the foregoing analysis that when the upper side frequency is disturbed and the lower side frequency is undisturbed, the lower side frequency can be used to recover the original signal.
当 DOW, 的随时间 t变化时的统计值 σ 2大于某个值 ς时,可以认为必然存在同频 异源干扰。两个信号源到达本系统时信号功率越接近,频谱相对变化越剧烈,统计值 σ2 就越大。 当统计值 σ2小于等于某个值 C2时, 一般认为只有一个来波方向; 当统计值 σ2 大于常数 ς小于等于 ς时,一般认为不存在同频干扰而存在多径干扰,但是在统计值 σ2 小于等于 ς时也不排除存在同频异源干扰的可能; 其中, ς和 ς需要根据实际测量环境 选取, 一般可在实际分析时进行多次预分析, 并根据预分析的统计值选取常数 ς和 ς, 常数 ς和 ς随 Μ的增大而增大,随时间窗口长度的增大而减小。当时间窗口加长时, ς、 ς的值都相应变小, 也就是分辨率提高了。 当然, 对于一些时间极短的猝发同频干扰信 号, 时间窗口也不能太长以至于远大于干扰信号时间长度, 导致方差被平滑掉。 而如果 只是判断频段整体受扰情况, 则可以利用频段内主要频点处指标 Ζ ν, ί, Γ)的平均值 ;ζ ^,Γ)随时间的变化情况来判定, 这样可以获得较好的稳定性, 其中, Ν为所 选择的频点数量。 两个信道的接收频率特性的线性差异并不影响指标 Ζ ν, ί, Γ)的稳定 性, 因此对接收信道的均衡性要求较低。 When the statistical value σ 2 of the DOW, when the time t changes, is greater than a certain value ,, it can be considered that there is necessarily a co-channel interference. When the two signal sources reach the system, the closer the signal power is, the more the relative change of the spectrum is, and the larger the statistical value σ 2 is. When the statistical value σ 2 is less than or equal to a certain value C 2 , it is generally considered that there is only one incoming wave direction; when the statistical value σ 2 is greater than the constant ς less than or equal to ς, it is generally considered that there is no co-channel interference and multipath interference exists, but When the statistical value σ 2 is less than or equal to ς, the possibility of co-channel interference is not excluded. Among them, ς and ς need to be selected according to the actual measurement environment. Generally, multiple pre-analysis can be performed in the actual analysis, and according to the pre-analysis statistics. The values select constants ς and ς, and the constants ς and ς increase with increasing , and decrease with increasing length of time window. When the time window is lengthened, the values of ς and ς are correspondingly smaller, that is, the resolution is improved. Of course, for some very short bursts of co-channel interference signals, the time window should not be too long to be much longer than the interference signal length, resulting in smoothing of the variance. If only the overall interference of the frequency band is judged, the average value of the index Ζ ν, ί, Γ at the main frequency point in the frequency band; ζ ^, Γ) can be determined according to the change of time, so that a better result can be obtained. Stability, where Ν is the number of selected frequencies. The linear difference in the reception frequency characteristics of the two channels does not affect the stability of the index Ζ ν, ί, Γ), and therefore the equalization of the reception channel is low.
在同一个时间窗口内, 对两副天线信号所考察频带内的频谱除以各自最大值做归一 化后, 得到归一化频谱 ( ^, 和(¾(>^, 。 在存在同频干扰的情况下, 归一化频 谱 (>^, 和(¾(>^, 之间将出现显著差异。 在同频干扰不存在而多径干扰存在的 情况下, 归一化频谱也将出现一定的差异, 只是这种差异并不显著。 当然, 两个信道的 接收频率特性的差异(主要由频率非线性等因素造成)也会造成归一化频谱的差异, 这 可以通过提高接收信道的均衡性来解决。 因此, 大部分情况下, 归一化频谱的差异也可 以作为判定同频干扰和多径干扰的重要指标。 - - 当对各个可能来波方向逐一进行判别都没有发现同频异源信号时,可判断空间中此 处没有同频异源信号或同频异源的干扰信号极小。 In the same time window, the normalized spectrum is obtained by dividing the spectrum in the frequency band of the two antenna signals by the respective maximum values (^, and (3⁄4(>^, in the presence of co-channel interference). In the case of normalized spectrum (>^, and (3⁄4(>^, there will be significant differences). In the case where co-channel interference does not exist and multipath interference exists, the normalized spectrum will also appear certain. The difference is only that the difference is not significant. Of course, the difference in the receiving frequency characteristics of the two channels (mainly caused by factors such as frequency nonlinearity) also causes the difference in the normalized spectrum, which can improve the equalization of the receiving channel. Therefore, in most cases, the difference in normalized spectrum can also be used as an important indicator for determining co-channel interference and multi-path interference. - - When the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is not found for each possible incoming wave direction, it can be judged that there is no interference signal of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal or the same-frequency heterogeneous in the space.
同频异源信号引起的 Ζ ^ό, ,Γ)指标波动是随时间快速变化的,在确认没有同频异源 信号情况下, 如果 Ζ^ 'Μ^,Γ)随时间发生较大波动, 可能由两种因素引起: 其一, 发射源 位置的变化, 导致传播路径及反射、 折射路径的变化; 其二, 传播信道的变化。 但是, 一般电磁环境中,传播信道不会发生快速的变化, 即使变化也只是影响那些次要的多径 信号的传播。 因此, 普通条件下的主要因素还是发射源位置的变化, 据此可判断发射源 是否是移动发射源。如果发射源是移动发射源, 并且移动过程中因为障碍物的阻挡导致 传播的全部或部分路径发生急剧变化, 则/3( ^, )将出现跳变。这个急剧的变化过程主 要发生在传播路径与障碍物边沿交汇时, 交汇后, 原来可达的路径被阻挡或者原来被阻 挡的路径变成可达。 而移动过程中的其它时候, 传播路径的也会发生相对缓慢的变化, 导致 出现缓变。 根据这个原理, 可以对发射源是否是移动源做出判断。 在确认没有同频异源信号且发射源不是移动源的情况下,如果 Ζ^ 'Μ^,Γ)随时间发生 较大波动, 则只能是由于传播环境发生变化造成的。 这在一般的通信环境下不会发生。 但如果我们构造一个相对封闭的电磁环境,并于其中放置一个无线信号源和一个或多个 本发明所述系统,我们就可能检测出环境中是否出现新的障碍物以及是否发生障碍物的 移动。当然, 无线信号源与接收系统之间的收发可以采用跳频方式以防止外来的窄带电 磁干扰。  Ζ ^ό, , Γ) caused by the same-frequency heterogeneous signal fluctuates rapidly with time. If there is no same-frequency heterogeneous signal, if Ζ^ 'Μ^,Γ) fluctuates greatly with time, It may be caused by two factors: First, the change of the position of the source, which leads to the change of the propagation path and the reflection and refraction paths; and second, the change of the propagation channel. However, in a general electromagnetic environment, the propagation channel does not change rapidly, even if the change only affects the propagation of those minor multipath signals. Therefore, the main factor under normal conditions is the change in the position of the source, from which it can be judged whether the source is a mobile source. If the source is a mobile source, and all or part of the path of the propagation changes abruptly due to the blockage of the obstacle during the movement, /3(^, ) will jump. This sharp change process mainly occurs when the propagation path meets the edge of the obstacle. After the intersection, the originally accessible path is blocked or the originally blocked path becomes reachable. At other times during the movement, the propagation path will also undergo a relatively slow change, resulting in a slow change. According to this principle, it is possible to make a judgment as to whether or not the source is a source of movement. In the case where it is confirmed that there is no co-channel heterogeneous signal and the transmission source is not a moving source, if Ζ^ 'Μ^,Γ) fluctuates greatly with time, it can only be caused by a change in the propagation environment. This does not happen in a normal communication environment. But if we construct a relatively closed electromagnetic environment and place a wireless signal source and one or more of the systems of the present invention in it, we can detect whether new obstacles appear in the environment and whether obstacles move. . Of course, the transceiving between the wireless signal source and the receiving system can be frequency hopping to prevent external narrowband electromagnetic interference.
在对所考察频段内的信号做了充分的分析后, 就可以开始进行下一步的测向过程。 本发明的技术方案的重点在于三个关键技术特征:一是采用第一天线和第二天线同步接 收信号, 其中, 至少第一天线为可旋转的定向天线; 二是采用一定长度时间窗口内的短 时统计分析; 三是利用二者短时统计分析值的比值完成分析和测向。 由于本发明的技术 方案利用的是比值分析法, 因此, 其中的短时统计分析的具体实施手段并不是实现本发 明技术方案的必要技术特征, 除采用短时傅立叶频谱分析外, 还可以采用小波分析等分 析手段, 即在尺度域进行各尺度上的分析。  After a thorough analysis of the signals in the frequency band under investigation, the next direction finding process can begin. The technical solution of the present invention focuses on three key technical features: one is to synchronously receive signals by using the first antenna and the second antenna, wherein at least the first antenna is a rotatable directional antenna; and the second is to use a certain length of time window. Short-term statistical analysis; The third is to use the ratio of the short-term statistical analysis values to complete the analysis and direction finding. Since the technical solution of the present invention utilizes the ratio analysis method, the specific implementation method of the short-term statistical analysis is not a necessary technical feature for implementing the technical solution of the present invention, and a wavelet can be used in addition to the short-time Fourier spectrum analysis. Analysis and other analytical methods, that is, analysis at various scales in the scale domain.
传统的旋转天线幅度测向方法受多种因素影响, 测向精度和可靠性存在很大局限 性。这些因素包括如旋转过程中信号电平的变化,多径传播以及同频异源信号的干扰等, 同时传统方法只考虑通过信号的统计最大值、最小值(即大音点和小音点)来确定来波 方向, 存在较大局限性。 本发明所述多天线单元信号分析处理及测向系统在上述所述信号分析处理的基础 之上,通过对多天线单元的组合运用并结合定向天线的方向性函数对信号进行尽可能准 确的测向。 并排除多径信号的影响, 获取直达信号的方位, 其中一种主要的方法是基于 幅度方向性函数叠加模型回归分析的幅度测向方法,其中, 回归分析为数值分析的最优 化方法的一种, 在此也可以采用最小二乘法等数值分析方法。 The traditional method of amplitude measurement of rotating antenna is affected by many factors, and the accuracy and reliability of direction finding are very limited. These factors include changes in signal levels during rotation, multipath propagation, and interference from coherent heterogeneous signals. Traditional methods only consider the statistical maximum and minimum values of the passing signals (ie, large and small points). To determine the direction of the incoming wave, there are major limitations. The multi-antenna unit signal analysis processing and direction finding system of the present invention performs the accurate measurement of the signal by combining the multi-antenna unit and the directional function of the directional antenna on the basis of the above-mentioned signal analysis processing. to. The influence of the multipath signal is excluded, and the orientation of the direct signal is obtained. One of the main methods is the amplitude direction finding method based on the amplitude directional function superposition model regression analysis. Among them, the regression analysis is a kind of optimization method for numerical analysis. Here, numerical analysis methods such as least squares method can also be used.
根据前述信号 /2 (0传播模型, 保持辅助旋转天线固定指向一定的角度, 并 大致指向可能的来波方向, 而主旋转天线从某个角度 = 。开始以一定的角速率《旋 转。 设主旋转天线的幅度方向性函数为 ί ^), 考虑主旋转天线每秒旋转一周的情况, 若短时傅立叶变换的时间窗口选为 lms,则时间窗口内天线转过的角度为 0.36°, 对于一 般的方向性函数, 这个过程中 可以看作一个常数, 当然也可以通过减慢 主旋转天线的转速或縮短时间窗口来更好地满足这一条件。 若将时间窗口内 - )视为一个常数, 则某时间窗口内主旋转天线测得信号的短时傅立叶频谱 q( t,r)可以近似表示为: According to the aforementioned signal / 2 (0 propagation model, keep the auxiliary rotating antenna fixed at a certain angle and roughly point to the possible incoming wave direction, and the main rotating antenna starts from a certain angle = . at a certain angular rate "rotation. The amplitude directionality function of the rotating antenna is ί ^). Considering the case where the main rotating antenna rotates once a second, if the time window of the short-time Fourier transform is selected as lms, the angle at which the antenna rotates in the time window is 0.36°. The directional function can be seen as a constant in this process. Of course, this condition can be better satisfied by slowing down the rotation speed of the main rotating antenna or shortening the time window. If the time window - ) is regarded as a constant, the short-time Fourier spectrum q( t,r) of the signal measured by the main rotating antenna in a certain time window can be approximated as:

If (3⁄4(> 3⁄4 ) is less than the constant " 3 , then it is considered The ratio has no validity. - The number is determined not to be unique. It can be selected according to the actual measurement environment, such as a value greater than 2~5db of background noise, or 1/4 of the statistical average of the spectrum of the frequency signal.

If there is no co-channel heterogeneous signal in space, ie Λ (0 is also a multipath signal of / O or Λ (0 = ο, here both are reduced to / 2 (0 = 0.) The weighted superposition model is:
Figure imgf000015_0001
这里每一个来波方向的信号有三个参数: 幅度系数^: u、 来波方位 和延迟时间 rh., 其中, 幅度系数^: u可能已经不再反映空间中信号原来的相对幅度, 而是在下变频过程 中乘上了一些不同的系数。通过建立模型, 可以利用数值分析的最优化分析方法求出针 对所测数据的最优解。例如, 可以使用非线性最优化数值分析方法根据上述模型对测得 的实际数据进行回归分析, 从而得到精确的解向量, 在此也可以用一些其它类型的数值 方法来求得最优解。将主旋转天线旋转一周, 就可以测得各个方向上/^'¼^ 的一组数 据, 例如以 lms为一个时间窗口, Is旋转一周将测得大约 1000个数据。 根据前面信号 分析的结果可知, 当不存在同频干扰并且信号传播路径稳定时, 由主旋转天线旋转测得 的/3( ^ 数据在角度上将以 2 τ为周期, 实际上可以多旋转几周, 然后选取其中有效 性指标较高的数据构成各个方位角对应的比值数据曲线。 通过对所述数据曲线的分析, 可以估计来波方向数, 以及每个方向来波相应的幅度、 方位和时间延迟。 例如, 由方向 性较强的主旋转天线旋转一周测得的数据可以估计出各来波方向信号的包络位置和幅 度, 对于延时一般在一定范围内任意取估值, 而幅度最大路径的延时可以取为 0。 将估 计的来波方向数作为模型的维数 (即来波方向数), 将估计的各参数值作为初值代入模 型进行最优化运算, 如采用 matlab软件中 nl inf it ()函数所描述的非线性拟合算法进 行最优化运算, 就可以得到最优解以及最优解下的误差值。 如果误差值较大, 可以增加 模型的维数进一步优化, 一般方法是将原始数据减去低维模型的估算值, 然后利用差值 估计新的可能的来波信号。在这种情况下, 根据来波信号最优解结果随时间的变化, 也 可以判断信号源是否是移动源。 需要强调一点, 对于上述模型求解的延迟时间 7 .具有 一定的不确定性, 其取值以 2 、为周期, 当《。较小时, 可以根据 Γ1;的取值范围排除周 期性造成的模糊, 这也是信号基带处理的一个好处。 Here, each incoming signal has three parameters: amplitude coefficient ^: u , incoming wave azimuth and delay time r h ., where the amplitude coefficient ^: u may no longer reflect the original relative amplitude of the signal in space, but Multiplied by a number of different coefficients during the downconversion process. By establishing a model, an optimal solution for the measured data can be obtained by using an optimal analysis method of numerical analysis. For example, a nonlinear optimization numerical analysis method can be used to perform regression analysis on the measured actual data according to the above model, thereby obtaining an accurate solution vector, and some other types of numerical methods can also be used to obtain an optimal solution. Rotating the main rotating antenna for one week, you can measure a set of data in / ^ '1⁄4 ^ in each direction, for example, lms is a time window, and Is rotating will measure about 1000 data. According to the results of the previous signal analysis, when there is no co-channel interference and the signal propagation path is stable, the /3 measured by the rotation of the main rotating antenna (^ data will be in the angle of 2 τ for the period, in fact, it can be rotated a few times. Week, and then select the data with higher validity index to form the ratio data curve corresponding to each azimuth angle. By analyzing the data curve, the number of directions of the wave direction and the corresponding amplitude, orientation and direction of each direction wave can be estimated. For example, the data measured by one rotation of the directional main rotating antenna can estimate the envelope position and amplitude of each incoming direction signal, and the delay is generally arbitrarily within a certain range, and the amplitude is obtained. The delay of the maximum path can be taken as 0. The estimated number of directions of the incoming wave is taken as the dimension of the model (ie, the number of directions of the incoming wave), and the estimated values of the parameters are substituted into the model as the initial value for optimization operation, such as using matlab software. The nonlinear fitting algorithm described by the nl inf it () function performs the optimization operation to obtain the optimal solution and the error value under the optimal solution. If the error value is large, the dimension of the model can be further optimized. The general method is to subtract the estimated value of the low-dimensional model from the original data, and then use the difference to estimate the new possible incoming signal. In this case, according to The result of the optimal solution of the incoming wave signal changes with time, and it can also be judged whether the signal source is a moving source. It is necessary to emphasize that the delay time for solving the above model has a certain uncertainty, and its value is 2 , which is a period. When "small, the range of values of Γ 1; can be used to exclude the blur caused by periodicity, which is also a benefit of signal baseband processing.
当我们获得了各个来波方向的来波方位 ,.和延迟时间 7 .后, 可以实现单站定位的功 能。 其原理简述如下: 假定发射源位置为 A, 本系统所在位置为 B, 一个只有一次反射 的多径信号其发射点位置为 C, AB 与 BC 夹角为 , 已测得, 则When we obtain the arrival direction of each incoming wave direction, and the delay time of 7., we can achieve the work of single station positioning. can. The principle is as follows: Assume that the position of the source is A, the position of the system is B, and the position of the multipath signal with only one reflection is C, and the angle between AB and BC is measured.

BC与 AB方向的时延差, ΔΓ也可由前面求解结果计算得到,所以如果能测量得到 的 值,就可以得到 的值,而 ΑΒ的方位角已知,这样就定出了发射源 Α的位置。关于 的测量可以测量与 BC方向相交的反射物的位置,可通过视距测量等物理测距方式实现。 The delay difference between BC and AB direction, ΔΓ can also be calculated from the previous solution result, so if the value can be measured, the value can be obtained, and the azimuth of ΑΒ is known, thus determining the position of the source Α. . The measurement can measure the position of the reflector intersecting the BC direction and can be realized by physical ranging such as line-of-sight measurement.
在没有同频干扰的情况下, 由于多径信号的影响, 由主旋转天线匀速旋转测得的 In the absence of co-channel interference, due to the influence of multipath signals, the main rotating antenna is measured at a constant speed.
Z v。, , r)可能出现一些高频的快速波动, 影响了 Z v。, , r)曲线的光滑性, 同时也可能 对回归分析造成影响。由于标准方向图曲线及其多径叠加曲线的傅立叶变换主值范围都 是有限的, 因此可以对 Ζ 。, , Γ)数据进行滤波, 滤除那些多余的分量 (一般是高频分 量) 得到较为光滑的曲线, 然后再进行回归分析。 Z v. , , r) There may be some high frequency rapid fluctuations that affect Z v. , , r) the smoothness of the curve, and may also affect the regression analysis. Since the main direction range of the Fourier transform of the standard pattern curve and its multipath superposition curve is limited, it can be 对. , , Γ) The data is filtered, and the extra components (generally high frequency components) are filtered out to obtain a smoother curve, and then regression analysis is performed.
同频干扰存在时, 可以通过频域、空域和时域综合选取的方法来获取对其中一个信 号源测向所需的数据。这类数据的特征是比较平滑, 符合标准方向图曲线及其多径叠加 曲线的特征, 并且回归分析得到的误差较小、 模型吻合度高。 如果得到的一组数据(不 一定是一个完整的周期) 符合上述特征就可以称为一次符合检测。 当同频干扰存在时, 两个信号源的频谱会发生交叠, 但是有可能只是部分交叠, 通过前面的信号分析, 我们 可以找出各自未交叠的部分, 并从中选取频点来进行测向。如果频域选取难以达到较好 的效果, 我们可以考虑利用两副定向天线进行空域选取, 即将辅助旋转天线指向其中一 个信号源, 而尽量避开另一个信号源的来波。 如果频域、 空域选取的方法都没有达到预 期效果, 我们可以综合采用频域、 空域和时域选取的方法。 即按前述方法将辅助旋转天 线指向一个较合适的位置或采用全向天线, 匀速多次重复旋转主旋转天线, 对各个频点 When co-channel interference exists, the data required for direction finding of one of the signal sources can be obtained by a method of comprehensive selection in the frequency domain, the air domain, and the time domain. The characteristics of this type of data are relatively smooth, conforming to the characteristics of the standard pattern curve and its multipath superposition curve, and the error obtained by regression analysis is small and the model is highly consistent. If the resulting set of data (not necessarily a complete cycle) meets the above characteristics, it can be called a coincidence test. When co-channel interference exists, the spectrums of the two sources overlap, but there may be only partial overlap. Through the previous signal analysis, we can find the unoverlapping parts and select the frequency points from them. Direction finding. If the frequency domain selection is difficult to achieve better results, we can consider using two directional antennas for airspace selection, that is, the auxiliary rotating antenna is directed to one of the signal sources, and try to avoid the incoming wave of the other signal source. If the methods selected in the frequency domain and the airspace do not achieve the expected results, we can comprehensively adopt the methods of frequency domain, airspace and time domain selection. That is, the auxiliary rotating antenna is pointed to a suitable position or an omnidirectional antenna is used as described above, and the main rotating antenna is repeatedly rotated at a constant speed for each frequency point.

If a certain frequency component of the same frequency signal disappears or is extremely small within a certain period of time, it is possible to obtain the curve data that meets the direction finding requirements. The frequency domain analysis method can also be replaced by a wavelet transform or the like. When the same-frequency heterogeneous signal exists but the signal is small, it is also conceivable to filter the β(., data, filter out those high-frequency components to obtain a smoother curve, and then perform regression analysis. For the same-frequency heterogeneous The interference signal can be the direction in which the maximum fluctuation of the curve (the azimuth corresponding to the point at which the amplitude spectrum is instantaneously changed) is the maximum possible direction of the incoming wave. - - one of the preferred embodiments of the invention:
本实施例中, 主要通过定向天线和全向天线的组合运用进行信号分析与信号源测 向。 如图 3所示, 第一天线 1可采用不同形状的方向性天线, 但应该轻便易携带。 双股 电缆 14用于传送两路不同的天线信号。防耦合支架 16用于保持两副天线在不同的水平 面上、 并使二者之间保持一定的距离, 防止天线接收信号时相互影响。 当然, 天线单元 1的设计也可以用其他方式, 例如定向天线采用复合环天线时, 可以将复合环天线中校 准天线的输出同时作为一路全向天线的输出。 图 3中的把手 13便于手持测向, 支架 15 用于安装定向天线 11。 防耦合支架 16也可以一定弧度向后弯曲, 并且有较大的高度, 使得使用者手持该设备时, 全向天线 12竖直位于使用者的头顶上方。  In this embodiment, signal analysis and signal source direction finding are mainly performed by a combination of a directional antenna and an omnidirectional antenna. As shown in FIG. 3, the first antenna 1 can adopt directional antennas of different shapes, but should be light and easy to carry. The double-strand cable 14 is used to transmit two different antenna signals. The anti-coupling bracket 16 is used to keep the two antennas on different horizontal planes and keep a certain distance between them, so as to prevent the antennas from interacting with each other when receiving signals. Of course, the antenna unit 1 can also be designed in other ways. For example, when the directional antenna adopts a composite loop antenna, the output of the calibrated antenna in the composite loop antenna can be simultaneously used as the output of one omnidirectional antenna. The handle 13 in Fig. 3 facilitates hand-held direction finding and the bracket 15 is used to mount the directional antenna 11. The anti-coupling bracket 16 can also be bent back in a certain arc and has a large height so that when the user holds the device, the omnidirectional antenna 12 is vertically above the top of the user's head.
下面对该系统的使用做一简单说明。由手持式测向装置旋转测量结果筛选出可能的 信号来波方向, 将定向天线依次指向这些方向。然后, 根据定向天线与全向天线所测得 的信号在各个频点短时频谱比值随时间的稳定性分析是否存在同频异源信号。当定向天 线在某来波方向接收到信号相对很小, 从而使上述比值变化不显著且易出现系统偏差 时, 可以对定向天线接收通路加固定的增益, 或者在取比值前乘以固定倍数以使 ( iv。, t,r)变化相对显著。 若随时间出现较大的持续快速波动, 则认为存在较大的同频 异源信号; 若随时间出现波动很小, 且当加大时间窗口宽度时该波动变小, 则说明该方 向不存在同频异源信号或者同频异源信号很小; 若大部分时间指标波动平缓, 只在某些 时刻出现较大的跳变, 则可能该信号源是移动源。  The following is a brief description of the use of the system. The hand-held direction finding device rotates the measurement results to screen out the possible signal directions, and the directional antennas are sequentially pointed to these directions. Then, based on the measured values of the short-time spectral ratios of the signals measured by the directional antenna and the omnidirectional antenna at each frequency point, the presence or absence of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is analyzed. When the directional antenna receives a relatively small signal in a certain direction of the wave, so that the ratio change is not significant and the system deviation is easy, a fixed gain can be added to the directional antenna receiving path, or multiplied by a fixed multiple before the ratio is taken. Make (iv., t, r) change relatively significant. If there is a large continuous fast fluctuation over time, it is considered that there is a large co-channel heterogeneous signal; if the fluctuation occurs with time, and the fluctuation becomes smaller when the time window width is increased, it means that the direction does not exist. The same-frequency heterogeneous signal or the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is small; if the index fluctuation is moderate in most of the time, and only a large jump occurs at some time, the signal source may be the moving source.

In the experiment, the three-way frequency modulated actual voice signal is used. The three voice signals are different. One of them is modulated in a lower frequency band, and only the multipath signal interference exists in its passband. The other two The road signals are modulated in the same higher frequency band and constitute the same frequency interference. Wherein the direction of the directional antenna diagram in FIG standard heart-shaped directivity function / (^ = + ∞ 8, wherein, k 0, k x are constants, the multipath reflection coefficient is typically 0.5, multipath The angle between the arrival direction of the signal and the direction of arrival of the direct signal is typically 45 degrees. Figure 4 shows the maximum and minimum values of the short-time spectral ratio Ζ , , τ) of each frequency point over time in time. The maximum value is shown by the solid line, and the minimum value is shown by the dotted line. Among them, some frequency points with smaller amplitude values have a short-time spectral ratio >^, which is directly assigned to a zero value. In Figure 5, the * line shows the short-time spectrum ratio at a certain frequency in the lower frequency band, and Γ) changes with time. The frequency is affected by multipath interference, and the index fluctuation is relatively flat; The solid line in 5 shows the short-time spectral ratio Ζ , , , Γ at a certain frequency point in the higher frequency band as a function of time. The frequency point is more severe due to the presence of co-channel interference. - - When the same-frequency heterogeneous signal is not found for each possible incoming wave direction, it can be judged that there is no interference signal of the same-frequency heterogeneous signal or the same-frequency heterogeneous source in the space.

当其中全向天线测的信号在 Wo频点处幅度为零或很小时, 该比值失去有效性, 应 该给出信号弱的警示标志。由于一般在对天线信号下变频为基带信号后再做处理, ¼¾值 一般很小, 而在手持式测向设备应用下, 相对幅度较大的多径信号时延一般也很小, 所 以 e 可以近似取为 1。 贝 IJ : When the signal measured by the omnidirectional antenna has a zero or very small amplitude at the wo frequency, the ratio loses its validity and a weak warning sign should be given. Since the antenna signal is generally down-converted to a baseband signal and then processed, the value of 1⁄43⁄4 is generally small, and in the case of handheld direction-finding equipment, the multi-path signal delay with a relatively large amplitude is generally small, so e can Approximate is taken as 1.
