Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of space communication, and in particular relates to an X-ray source for space X-ray communication based on an energy load signal. Background technique [0002] X-ray space communication is a communication method that uses X-ray photons as carrier signals to realize information transmission. At atmospheric pressure less than 10 -4 Under the vacuum environment of Pa, the X-ray transmittance is almost 100%. And X-rays have the characteristics of high frequency, high energy and short wavelength. Utilizing these properties of X-rays and applying them to space communication can provide abundant channel resources for future space communication systems, enable communication in complex environments such as strong electromagnetic shielding environments, and effectively reduce the size of communication equipment and reduce aircraft loads . In the X-ray communication scheme currently proposed, Dr. Keith Gendreau, a...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the above schemes, the transmission of digital signals "0" and "1" is realized through the presence/absence of X-ray signals. At the signal receiving end, all X-rays within the energy response range of the detector will be considered as valid signals. This is easily affected by cosmic rays and background X-rays in the real space environment, resulting in reduced signal-to-noise ratio and poor communication performance.

Moreover, more electrons will hit the grid during work, which will cause heat to be generated on the grid and increase the difficulty of designin
