Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of GNSS-R technology, and specifically relates to a Delay-Doppler Mapping simulation method and system for sea ice GNSS scattered signals. The method is used to generate Delay-Doppler Map (DDM) waveforms, especially DDM waveforms for different polarization channels in a reduced polarization mode. The simulation method is applicable to L / S / C multi-band GNSS or communication satellite signals. Background Art
[0002] In its initial applications, GNSS-R (Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry) uses LHCP polarization antennas to receive surface reflection signals. Therefore, LR polarization is used in the process of ground object parameter inversion.
[0003] With the advancement of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology, the reception and utilization of GNSS reflected signals are no longer limited to the original L / R polarization. R and L represent the RHCP (right-hand circular polarization) and LHCP (left-hand circular polarization) polarization states, respectively. Using antennas with other polarizations to receive reflected signals other than LHCP polarizations is a key trend in current and future receiver design.
[0004] For example, ESA's HydroGNSS, scheduled for launch in 2024, employs a dual-polarization design, employing both RHCP and LHCP receiver antennas to receive signals reflected from the Earth's surface. This means that during the inversion process, both RR and LR polarization reflectivity data will be combined to improve the accuracy of surface parameter inversion. While traditional GNSS-R uses left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) as a receiving antenna, existing technologies using other polarizations already exist.
[0005] However, in the field of sea ice, no one has yet focused on the simulation of GNSS scattered signals in polarization directions other than LHCP, nor has anyone considered how to use GNSS scattered signals in multiple polarization directions to improve sensitivity to sea ice. Summary of the Invention

[0015] The step S1 specifically includes: for each linear polarization channel, selecting an electromagnetic scattering model or a combination of multiple electromagnetic scattering models to establish a calculation model for the total scattering coefficient of the linear polarization channel.
[0016] The full polarization coherence model includes a scattering matrix of circular polarization and the linear polarization scattering matrix S and the polarization coherence matrix T; the step S12 specifically includes:
[0017] S121: Total scattering coefficient of each linear polarization channel , construct the linear polarization scattering matrix S;
[0018] S122: Constructing a polarization coherence matrix T according to the linear polarization scattering matrix S;
[0019] S123: According to the linear polarization scattering matrix, a circular polarization scattering matrix is obtained by transformation.
[0020] The bistatic radar cross section of an arbitrary polarization channel is obtained by multiplying the full polarization scattering matrix by the Stokes vector in the polarization direction on its left and right ends.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0031] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the delay-Doppler mapping simulation method for sea ice GNSS scattered signals. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific examples. It should be understood that the following examples are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0033] The present invention is mainly based on the following principles:
[0034] This paper combines a sea ice electromagnetic scattering model (regardless of the specific implementation) with DDM simulation of GNSS systems to overcome the current single-polarization problem of sea ice GNSS-R scattering signal models. This model identifies the different polarization responses of GNSS signals to the reflection of sea ice surfaces (smooth / rough ice, new ice / multi-year ice) and open water. The L-band (GNSS frequency band) has a certain degree of penetration into sea ice (on the order of centimeters to meters). GNSS signals with different polarization orientations have different sensitivities to the internal structure of the ice layer. Combining multiple polarization parameters (such as polarization ratio and phase difference) to construct a machine learning classification model improves the accuracy of sea ice type identification (e.g., distinguishing between floating ice, ice ridges, and melt ponds). Polarization information can also be used for: Melt monitoring: Seawater meltout reduces surface roughness, significantly changing the polarization ratio (VV / HV), enabling real-time tracking of ice edge retreat. Ice ridge detection: The rough surface of ice ridges produces strong cross-polarization scattering, and polarization characteristics can be used for terrain reconstruction.
[0035] The electromagnetic scattering model is interchangeable and includes, but is not limited to, physical models, semi-empirical models, and data-driven models. It can also encompass subsequent derivative technologies such as AI alternative models and quantum computing acceleration. The electromagnetic scattering model can be replaced with any of the following: the IEM model, the PO model, the SSA model, and a machine learning model, as long as the electromagnetic scattering model can calculate the fully polarized bistatic scattering coefficient.
[0036] Furthermore, the present invention uses a polarization coherent matrix to construct a fully polarized DDM, breaking through the limitation of traditional GNSS-R, which only uses left-hand circular polarization (LHCP). The polarization direction of the transmitted signal is RHCP, and the polarization direction of the received signal is a variety of permutations and combinations of LHCP, H, V, RHCP, etc.
[0037] Furthermore, this invention implements signal processing in Compact Polarimetry (CP). Compact Polarimetry (CP) involves receiving signals from a subset of polarization channels (e.g., single circular polarization transmission and dual linear polarization reception) and reconstructing full polarization information using mathematical models. Its core approach is to reduce the number of polarization channels actually received (e.g., from four fully polarized channels to two) while simultaneously deriving key polarization parameters through algorithms, thereby reducing hardware complexity while preserving sufficient and comprehensive information.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the delay Doppler mapping simulation method of sea ice GNSS scattered signals of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
[0039] Step S1: Calculate and obtain a 4×4 full polarization scattering matrix based on the electromagnetic scattering model;
[0040] The step S1 specifically includes:
[0041] Step S11: using the scattering calculation module 20 to determine the total scattering coefficient of each linear polarization channel according to the electromagnetic scattering model;
[0042] When the total scattering coefficient of each linear polarization channel is determined by using the scattering calculation module 20, the type of electromagnetic scattering model used is Figure 1 The sea ice electromagnetic scattering model selection module 10 is selected according to user needs.
[0043] The electromagnetic scattering model is interchangeable and is used to generate scattering coefficients for various polarization channels. Types of electromagnetic scattering models include, but are not limited to, physical models, semi-empirical models, and data-driven models. Specifically, these include, but are not limited to, improved integral equation models (IEMs), physical optics models (POs), small slope approximation models (SSAs), and machine learning algorithm models. The polarization direction of the transmitted signal is RHCP, while the polarization direction of the received signal is LHCP, H, V, RHCP, and other permutations and combinations. This provides new insights into the design and inversion of GNSS-R receivers.
