Abstract

The invention provides a method for estimating and accurately tracking the satellite position by using a reflector antenna. The method is different from the conventional communication antenna monopulse self-tracking or program-guided tracking methods. The method is realized by controlling the antenna mechanical axis to perform conical scanning around the satellite. The main steps are as follows: driving the antenna to perform azimuth and pitch scanning, recording the angular position information of the antenna and AGC voltage while scanning, and roughly estimating the satellite approximate position; driving the antenna to point to the satellite approximate position and perform conical scanning around the approximate position by an antenna control unit; according to the angle information and AGC voltage information output by an angle encoder during the scanning process, further estimating the satellite position by data correlation processing and the least squares method, and sending theestimation error to an antenna driving unit to realize the correction of the satellite pointing by the antenna. With the scanning and tracking going on, the method can achieve accurate tracking of satellites.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication engineering, in particular to a method for estimating the position of a satellite by a reflector antenna and realizing precise tracking. Background technique [0002] For deep space measurement and control large-aperture antennas, its main purpose is to achieve precise tracking of deep space targets, but when the target is very far away from the measurement and control station, the strength of the sum signal and difference signal received by the antenna will be greatly reduced. Attenuation, the signal-to-noise ratio of the tracking error signal generated by system synthesis will decrease, and the tracking performance will deteriorate when using the TE21 mode commonly used in traditional space detection and tracking for single-pulse self-tracking. In order to achieve precise tracking of distant targets by large deep-space TT&C antennas, it is necessary to supplement this situation with a new tracking s...
