具体实施方式detailed description
在移动卫星通信系统中,用户端可以通过地面端接入移动卫星通信网络中进行移动通信。其中,代表用户端的终端设备可以有不同的表现形式,例如可以是手持终端设备或车载终端设备等。终端设备可以通过安装无线收发天线来实现终端用户对卫星通信状态的设置和获取,并进一步实现与移动卫星的通信过程。传统的卫星通信系统中,终端设备所使用的终端天线一般为线极化天线或者固定单圆极化天线。当终端天线为线极化天线,终端天线接收圆极化的卫星信号时,将会损失3dB的功率。当终端天线为固定单圆极化天线,只需要在终端天线工作之前设定好天线的极化就可以将其应用于固定波束的卫星通信系统;但是对于移动的卫星波束,其极化在移动的过程中会发生变化,在此情况下,手动调整终端天线的极化的方式将不再适用。In the mobile satellite communication system, the user terminal can access the mobile satellite communication network through the ground terminal for mobile communication. Among them, the terminal device representing the user end may have different manifestations, for example, it may be a handheld terminal device or a vehicle-mounted terminal device. The terminal equipment can realize the setting and acquisition of the satellite communication status by the terminal user by installing the wireless transceiver antenna, and further realize the communication process with the mobile satellite. In the traditional satellite communication system, the terminal antenna used by the terminal equipment is generally a linear polarization antenna or a fixed single circular polarization antenna. When the terminal antenna is a linearly polarized antenna, the terminal antenna will lose 3dB of power when receiving a circularly polarized satellite signal. When the terminal antenna is a fixed single circular polarization antenna, you only need to set the polarization of the antenna before the terminal antenna works to apply it to a fixed beam satellite communication system; but for a mobile satellite beam, its polarization is moving In this case, the manual adjustment of the polarization of the terminal antenna will no longer be applicable.
例如对于具有极化复用的低轨卫星系统而言,其下发的卫星波束具有不同的极化,且卫星波束在快速移动。因此对于终端设备来说,终端设备要能快速检测出不断变化的卫星波束的极化,以区分来波的信号。这就对终端设备的天线系统的能力提出了一定的要求:首先,终端天线必须支持双圆极化,即终端天线必须既能接收/发射左旋圆极化(left hand circular polarization,LHCP)信号,又能接收/发射右旋圆极化(right hand circular polarization,RHCP)信号;其次,终端天线必须能实时支持两种极化模式的切换或者两种极化模式同时工作。For example, for a low-orbit satellite system with polarization multiplexing, the issued satellite beams have different polarizations, and the satellite beams are moving fast. Therefore, for terminal equipment, the terminal equipment must be able to quickly detect the ever-changing polarization of the satellite beam to distinguish incoming signals. This puts forward certain requirements on the capabilities of the antenna system of the terminal equipment: First, the terminal antenna must support dual circular polarization, that is, the terminal antenna must be able to receive/transmit left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) signals. It can also receive/transmit right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) signals; secondly, the terminal antenna must be able to support switching between two polarization modes in real time or work in two polarization modes at the same time.
本申请实施例中提及的卫星,也可以为卫星基站,或者为搭载在卫星上的网络侧设备。图1示出了一种可以支持LHCP和RHCP的天线架构。在图1所示的天线架构中,基带通 过控制射频开关进行工作模式的切换。例如,基带可以控制射频开关,使得辐射单元用于传输LHCP信号的端口与射频通道之间处于接通状态,在此情况下,天线架构可以接收和/或发射LHCP信号,并且不能感知RHCP信号。又例如,基带可以控制射频开关,使得辐射单元用于传输RHCP信号的端口与射频通道之间处于接通状态,在此情况下,天线架构可以接收和/或发射RHCP信号,并且不能感知LHCP信号。The satellite mentioned in the embodiments of the present application may also be a satellite base station or a network side device mounted on the satellite. Figure 1 shows an antenna architecture that can support LHCP and RHCP. In the antenna architecture shown in Figure 1, the baseband switches the operating mode by controlling the RF switch. For example, the baseband can control the radio frequency switch so that the port for transmitting the LHCP signal of the radiating unit and the radio frequency channel are in a connected state. In this case, the antenna structure can receive and/or transmit the LHCP signal and cannot sense the RHCP signal. For another example, the baseband can control the radio frequency switch so that the radiating unit's port for transmitting RHCP signals and the radio frequency channel are in a connected state. In this case, the antenna structure can receive and/or transmit RHCP signals and cannot sense LHCP signals .
图1所示的天线架构虽然可以支持两种极化模式,但是在任一时刻,该天线架构只能工作在一种极化模式,即当该天线架构可以接收和/或发射RHCP信号时,就不能接收/和或发射LHCP信号;或者,当该天线架构可以接收和/或发射LHCP信号时,就不能接收和/或发射RHCP信号。在邻近波束切换阶段,即当该天线架构位于LHCP波束和RHCP波束下时,该天线架构在任一时刻,只能感知到一个波束信号的存在,因此该天线架构需要通过扫描来判断是否切换。而在扫描干扰信号的过程中,会导致通信信号短暂断开。Although the antenna architecture shown in Figure 1 can support two polarization modes, at any one time, the antenna architecture can only work in one polarization mode, that is, when the antenna architecture can receive and/or transmit RHCP signals, Cannot receive and/or transmit LHCP signals; or, when the antenna structure can receive and/or transmit LHCP signals, it cannot receive and/or transmit RHCP signals. In the adjacent beam switching phase, that is, when the antenna architecture is located under the LHCP beam and the RHCP beam, the antenna architecture can only perceive the existence of one beam signal at any time, so the antenna architecture needs to scan to determine whether to switch. In the process of scanning for interference signals, the communication signal will be disconnected briefly.
图2示出了另一种可以支持LHCP和RHCP的天线架构。图2所示的天线架构中,基带通过控制射频开关(射频开关#1和射频开关#2)的开启和关闭进行工作模式的切换。例如,基带可以控制射频开关#1开启,并控制射频开关#2关闭,使得天线架构工作在RHCP极化模式下。又例如,基带可以控制射频开关#2开启,并控制射频开关#1关闭,使得天线架构工作在LHCP极化模式下。Figure 2 shows another antenna architecture that can support LHCP and RHCP. In the antenna architecture shown in FIG. 2, the baseband switches the working mode by controlling the on and off of radio frequency switches (RF switch #1 and RF switch #2). For example, the baseband can control the radio frequency switch #1 to turn on, and control the radio frequency switch #2 to turn off, so that the antenna architecture works in the RHCP polarization mode. For another example, the baseband can control the radio frequency switch #2 to turn on, and control the radio frequency switch #1 to turn off, so that the antenna architecture works in the LHCP polarization mode.
图2所示的天线架构虽然在初始接入以及波束切换的过程中,能同时接收RHCP信号和LHCP信号且进行基带处理,但是该天线系统需要两套射频通道(射频通道#1和射频通道#2),因此增加了系统的开销与功耗,硬件成本较高,此外,在初始接入和波束切换过程中,全程需要基带进行处理,增加了系统的复杂度。Although the antenna architecture shown in Figure 2 can simultaneously receive RHCP signals and LHCP signals and perform baseband processing during the initial access and beam switching process, the antenna system requires two sets of RF channels (RF channel #1 and RF channel # 2) Therefore, the overhead and power consumption of the system are increased, and the hardware cost is relatively high. In addition, in the initial access and beam switching process, baseband processing is required throughout the entire process, which increases the complexity of the system.
有鉴于此,本申请提供一种新型的信号处理装置(也可以称作天线系统或天线装置,下文中以天线系统为例进行说明),该天线系统具有更简的硬件结构,可以降低基带的处理负担,以及减少系统的传输信令,降低频谱开销。In view of this, this application provides a new type of signal processing device (also called an antenna system or an antenna device, the following takes the antenna system as an example), the antenna system has a simpler hardware structure, which can reduce baseband Processing burden, and reduce system transmission signaling, reduce spectrum overhead.

The radiation unit can be a split radiation unit or an integrated radiation unit. The radiation unit may include at least two ports, and the at least two ports correspond to at least two signals in a one-to-one manner. For example, if the two signals are the RHCP signal and the LHCP signal, the first port of the two ports can correspond to the RHCP signal, and the second port can correspond to the LHCP signal. It should be noted that the first port and the second port can work at the same time.

Optionally, the radiating unit in the antenna system may include more ports for receiving more signals. In the antenna system 300 shown in FIG. 4, the radiating unit includes three ports, which can be used to receive RHCP signals, LHCP signals, and linear polarization signals, respectively.
辐射单元可以将接收到的至少两路信号分别通过不同的端口传输至第一控制模块。例如图3所示的天线系统300中,辐射单元可以通过第一端口将接收的RHCP信号传输至第一控制模块,通过第二端口将接收到的LHCP信号传输至第一控制模块。The radiation unit can transmit the received at least two signals to the first control module through different ports. For example, in the antenna system 300 shown in FIG. 3, the radiation unit may transmit the received RHCP signal to the first control module through the first port, and transmit the received LHCP signal to the first control module through the second port.
第一控制模块可以用于检测来自辐射单元的至少两路信号的接收功率,并将得到的至少两路信号的接收功率传输至协处理器。The first control module may be used to detect the received power of at least two signals from the radiation unit, and transmit the obtained received power of the at least two signals to the coprocessor.

The first control module can transmit signals of different polarization types to the baseband processor by controlling the on and off of at least two transmission channels.
协处理器可以用于根据至少两路信号的接收功率,从至少两路信号中确定目标接收信号。具体地,协处理器可以将至少两路信号中接收功率最大的信号确定为目标接收信号。The coprocessor may be used to determine the target received signal from the at least two signals according to the received power of the at least two signals. Specifically, the coprocessor may determine the signal with the largest received power among the at least two signals as the target received signal.
在某些可能的实现方式中,协处理器可以根据至少两路信号的接收功率向基带处理器发送请求消息,以请求基带处理器从至少两路信号中确定目标接收信号。进一步地,基带处理器向协处理器发送指示信息,以指示目标接收信号的极化类型。In some possible implementation manners, the coprocessor may send a request message to the baseband processor according to the received power of the at least two channels of signals, so as to request the baseband processor to determine the target received signal from the at least two channels of signals. Further, the baseband processor sends instruction information to the coprocessor to indicate the polarization type of the signal received by the target.
例如,在至少两路信号的接收功率相等的情况下,协处理器可以向基带处理器发送请求消息,并根据来自基带处理器的指示信息确定目标接收信号。For example, when the received power of at least two signals is equal, the coprocessor may send a request message to the baseband processor, and determine the target received signal according to the instruction information from the baseband processor.
又例如,在波束切换的场景下,协处理器可以在干扰信号与目标接收信号的接收功率比值大于第一预设阈值的情况下,向基带处理器发送波束切换请求消息;进一步地,在协处理器接收到来自基带处理器的波束切换响应消息的情况下,将干扰信号确定为新的目标 接收信号。进一步地,在将干扰信号确定为新的目标接收信号之后,协处理器还可以指示第一控制模块关闭除干扰通道以外的传输通道,以进行波束切换。例如,若目标接收信号是RHCP信号,干扰信号是LHCP信号,则协处理器在接收到来自基带处理器的波束切换响应消息之后,指示第一控制模块打开用于传输LHCP信号的传输通道,同时关闭用于传输RHCP信号的传输通道。For another example, in a beam switching scenario, the coprocessor may send a beam switching request message to the baseband processor when the ratio of the received power of the interference signal to the target received signal is greater than the first preset threshold; When the processor receives the beam switching response message from the baseband processor, it determines the interference signal as the new target received signal. Further, after the interference signal is determined as the new target received signal, the coprocessor may also instruct the first control module to close transmission channels other than the interference channel to perform beam switching. For example, if the target received signal is an RHCP signal and the interference signal is an LHCP signal, the coprocessor, after receiving the beam switching response message from the baseband processor, instructs the first control module to open the transmission channel for transmitting the LHCP signal, and at the same time Close the transmission channel used to transmit the RHCP signal.

例如,若协处理器确定RHCP信号是目标接收信号,则协处理器指示第一控制模块关闭用于传输LHCP信号的传输通道,也可以说,协处理器指示第一控制模块设定天线系统工作在RHCP极化模式下。For example, if the coprocessor determines that the RHCP signal is the target received signal, the coprocessor instructs the first control module to close the transmission channel for transmitting the LHCP signal. It can also be said that the coprocessor instructs the first control module to set the antenna system to work In RHCP polarization mode.

The polarization type of the target received signal can be LHCP or RHCP.
在本申请实施例提供的天线系统中,第一控制模块和协处理器可以协同确定目标接收信号,并且协处理器可以指示第一控制模块关闭除目标传输通道以外的传输通道,从而实现了对接收信号的极化滤波。在这一过程中,由于不需要基带处理器进行信号处理,降低了基带处理器的负担。此外,在切换的过程中,本申请实施例提供的天线系统可以接收两种不同极化类型的信号,并且由于不需要将信号传输至基带处理器进行处理,因此只需要1套射频通道,从而可以降低系统的开销与功耗。In the antenna system provided by the embodiment of the present application, the first control module and the coprocessor can cooperate to determine the target reception signal, and the coprocessor can instruct the first control module to close the transmission channel other than the target transmission channel, thereby realizing the Polarization filtering of the received signal.

In addition, during the switching process, the antenna system provided by the embodiment of the present application can receive signals of two different polarization types, and since the signals do not need to be transmitted to the baseband processor for processing, only one set of radio frequency channels is required, thereby Can reduce the overhead and power consumption of the system.

又例如,协处理器可以根据来自基带处理器的第二信息确定目标发射信号的极化类型,第二信息用于指示目标发射信号的极化类型。For another example, the coprocessor may determine the polarization type of the target transmission signal according to the second information from the baseband processor, and the second information is used to indicate the polarization type of the target transmission signal.
在确定目标发射信号的极化类型之后,协处理器可以指示第二控制模块关闭除目标发射通道以外的发射通道,目标发射通道即与目标发射信号对应的发射通道。例如,若协处理器确定目标发射信号的极化类型是RHCP,则协处理器指示第二控制模块关闭用于传输LHCP信号的发射通道,从而将目标发射信号的极化类型设定为RHCP。又例如,若协处理器确定目标发射信号的极化类型是LHCP,则协处理器指示第二控制模块关闭用于传输RHCP信号的发射通道,从而将目标发射信号的极化类型设定为LHCP。After determining the polarization type of the target transmission signal, the coprocessor may instruct the second control module to close transmission channels other than the target transmission channel, and the target transmission channel is the transmission channel corresponding to the target transmission signal. For example, if the coprocessor determines that the polarization type of the target transmission signal is RHCP, the coprocessor instructs the second control module to close the transmission channel for transmitting the LHCP signal, thereby setting the polarization type of the target transmission signal to RHCP. For another example, if the coprocessor determines that the polarization type of the target transmission signal is LHCP, the coprocessor instructs the second control module to close the transmission channel for transmitting the RHCP signal, thereby setting the polarization type of the target transmission signal to LHCP .
第二控制模块可以将目标发射信号发射至辐射单元,由辐射单元将目标发射信号辐射 出去。具体地,辐射单元可以将从不同端口接收到的发射信号以不同的极化模式辐射出去。如图5所示,辐射单元可以将从第一端口接收的发射信号以RHCP极化模式辐射出去,可以将从第二端口接收的信号以LHCP极化模式辐射出去。The second control module can transmit the target emission signal to the radiation unit, and the radiation unit radiates the target emission signal.
