The present application belongs to the
electronic information,
signal processing, communication and
radar positioning cross technical field, and relates to a
signal delay measurement method,
system and terminal. The present application collects the transmitting
signal and the receiving signal through the
delay system, respectively makes the
fast Fourier transform on the two signals and selects the
frequency interval according to the spectrum, and then calculates the
phase difference change; at the same time, a new
phase unwrapping method is proposed to solve the 2pi phase
ambiguity problem caused by the calculation of the
phase difference, and the
phase difference is shifted and corrected to restore it to the phase difference corresponding to the
high frequency; finally, the
delay in the
time domain of the two signals is used, which is priori information that the phase difference is proportional to the frequency in the
frequency domain, and the phase difference points of the selected
frequency interval are forced to pass through the origin
linear fitting, and the delay is calculated through the slope of the straight line. The present application avoids the error accumulation caused by
noise or phase
mutation, and significantly improves the delay
estimation robustness under the condition of low signal-to-
noise ratio or frequent
phase jump.
