Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of railway dynamic detection, and in particular to a device and method for automatically identifying a GSM-R interference source. Background Art

[0002] This section is intended to provide a background or context to the embodiments of the invention recited in the claims. No admission is made that the description herein is prior art by inclusion in this section.

[0003] As a dedicated channel for wireless data transmission between railway trains and the ground, the GSM-R network is responsible for services such as wireless train number verification, wireless transmission of dispatching commands, and transmission of train operation control information. It plays an irreplaceable role in organizing railway transportation, commanding train operations, and railway business liaison. In order to ensure the normal operation of the GSM-R network, the existing technology conducts GSM-R network inspections on high-speed railways and conventional railways through monthly operation of high-speed comprehensive inspection trains and electrical inspection vehicles. The inspection items include wireless field strength coverage, GSM-R service quality, and electromagnetic environment. Based on the current communication detection, the railway department can find problems such as unqualified field strength coverage, poor voice quality, frequency occupancy, and large signal blocking interference in the GSM-R network. However, the current GSM-R communication detection system does not have the ability to automatically identify interference sources.

[0004] At present, the identification of interference sources mainly relies on GSM-R service quality detection. During the detection process, the detection personnel check the service quality detection data. When they find that the voice quality of the GSM-R network downlink wireless link is poor and the receiving level of the adjacent cell rises sharply, they replay the sweep data and real-time spectrum data for analysis to confirm whether there is co-frequency cell interference, large signal blocking interference, intermodulation interference, etc. This interference source identification method has the problem of low efficiency. In addition, the interference source identification method based on sweep and real-time spectrum has the following two problems: (1) It is impossible to confirm whether there is multipath interference; (2) Under the conditions of low signal-to-noise ratio and low receiving level, the co-frequency interference identification method based on sweep cannot determine whether there is co-frequency interference because the sweep module cannot decode the GSM-R broadcast message. At the same time, in order to strengthen railway radio management and ensure the normal operation of railway radio services, the interference source monitoring capability needs to be improved.

[0005] In summary, there is an urgent need for a technical solution that can overcome the above-mentioned defects and effectively identify the interference source of GSM-R. Summary of the invention

[0045] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a device for automatically identifying a GSM-R interference source according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the device includes: a uniform circular array antenna 110, a GSM-R dedicated antenna 120, a multi-channel receiver 130, a power divider 140, a frequency sweep processing module 150, a real-time spectrum processing module 160, a real-time processing unit 170, a system controller 180 and a system display 190; wherein,

[0046] The uniform circular array antenna 110 and the GSM-R dedicated antenna 120 are used to receive radio signals along the railway;

[0047] The multi-channel receiver 130 is connected to the uniform circular array antenna 110 and is used to transmit the radio signal received by the uniform circular array antenna to the real-time processing unit 170;

[0048] The power divider 140 is connected to the GSM-R dedicated antenna 120 and is used to divide the radio signal received by the GSM-R dedicated antenna into a signal I and a signal II, and input the signal I to the frequency sweep processing module 150 and input the signal II to the real-time spectrum processing module 160;

[0050] The real-time spectrum processing module 160 is used to perform real-time spectrum processing on the signal II and send the real-time spectrum processing result to the real-time processing unit 170;

[0052] According to the time-space positioning information, carrier frequency configuration information and the radio signal received by the uniform circular array antenna, the adjacent GSM-R cell is identified, the multipath signal of the adjacent cell is monitored, and the multipath monitoring result is obtained;

[0054] Send the current position information of the dynamic detection vehicle and the interference identification result to the system controller 180;

[0055] The system controller 180 is used to mark the interference source information on the map and display it in real time through the system display 190.

[0056] In actual application scenarios, the GSM-R interference source automatic identification device of the present invention can also have a system power supply, which is charged through an AC220V interface. The real-time processing unit maintains communication with the location information interface, the uniform circular array antenna and the GSM-R dedicated antenna communicate with the radio frequency interface, and the system display is connected to the human-machine interface.

[0057] The present invention receives radio signals along the railway by means of a GSM-R dedicated antenna and an array antenna installed on the roof of a dynamic detection vehicle, pre-processes the radio signals by means of a frequency sweeper, a real-time spectrum analyzer and a multi-channel receiver, and then identifies interference sources that affect the normal operation of GSM-R by means of a GSM-R interference source automatic identification algorithm, and displays interference source related information on a display. The overall solution can identify a variety of GSM-R interferences with high accuracy, and can significantly improve the efficiency of GSM-R interference source identification.

[0058] In order to explain the above-mentioned GSM-R interference source automatic identification device more clearly, a detailed description is given below in conjunction with a specific embodiment. The term "module" or "unit" used below can be a combination of software and / or hardware that implements a predetermined function. Although the device described in the following embodiment is preferably implemented in software, the implementation of hardware, or a combination of software and hardware, is also possible and conceivable.

[0059] Uniform circular array antenna 110:

[0060] The uniform circular array antenna is installed on the roof of the dynamic detection vehicle, and the uniform circular array antenna is connected to the multi-channel receiver through a feeder.

[0061] refer to Figure 2 The uniform circular array antenna is installed on the roof of the dynamic detection vehicle. The antenna array is composed of eight antennas. Each antenna is arranged on a circle at equal intervals. The angle φ between the array elements is 45 degrees. Numbers 1-8 are the positions of the eight antennas, and the reference array element is the array element numbered 1.

[0062] Specifically, eight antennas are arranged at equal intervals on a circle with a radius r of 0.165 m, and the operating frequency range of the array antenna is 600 MHz-6 GHz.

[0063] GSM-R dedicated antenna 120:

[0064] The GSM-R dedicated antenna is installed on the roof of the dynamic detection vehicle, and the GSM-R dedicated antenna is connected to the power divider through a feeder.

[0065] The GSM-R dedicated antenna is an antenna specially used for GSM-R vehicle-to-ground communication. It is mainly used to receive 900MHz band radio signals. Its operating frequency range includes 885-889MHz and 930-934MHz bands.

[0066] In this embodiment, the dynamic inspection vehicle is a special railway inspection vehicle, which mainly includes a high-speed comprehensive inspection train and an electrical inspection vehicle, which are used to inspect the status of communication infrastructure along the high-speed railway and conventional railway respectively.

[0067] Multi-channel receiver 130:

[0068] A multi-channel receiver is an instrument with the ability to receive and process multi-channel RF signals. It can realize the synchronous acquisition of eight-channel data. Multi-channel synchronous acquisition is an important guarantee for realizing high-precision array signal processing.

[0069] refer to Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown in FIG. 1 , there are respectively a schematic diagram of an existing receiver RF front-end architecture and a schematic diagram of a front-end architecture of a multi-channel receiver of the present invention. Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown, the multi-channel receiver of the present invention directly utilizes the technology of analog-to-digital converter to digitize the radio frequency signal. Before the signal undergoes analog-to-digital conversion, there is no need to convert the analog frequency into a lower intermediate frequency or baseband. The radio frequency sampling analog-to-digital converter can replace the traditional receiver radio frequency signal processing front end, including a mixer, a local oscillator synthesizer, an intermediate frequency amplifier and a filter (and in some cases, multiple analog-to-digital converters can be set). Compared with the prior art, the present invention uses a radio frequency analog-to-digital converter to realize direct sampling of radio frequency signals along the railway, which greatly reduces the materials used, cost, design time, size, weight and power consumption, while increasing the programmability of the software and the flexibility of the system.

[0070] Power divider 140:

[0071] The power divider is a device that evenly divides the GSM-R antenna input signal into two equal-power signals. On the one hand, it can improve the consistency of the radio signals received by the sweeper and real-time spectrum analyzer, and avoid inconsistent measurement results such as the receiving level and power due to differences in the installation position of the roof antenna. On the other hand, it can improve the current situation of insufficient roof antennas on dynamic detection vehicles.

[0072] Sweep frequency processing module 150:

[0073] The frequency scanning processing module is a GSM-R cell broadcast message decoding device, which obtains cell information by demodulating and decoding the radio signal received by the antenna, wherein the cell information at least includes MCC, MNC, LAC, CI, and frequency point number information.

[0074] Specifically, MCC is the mobile country code, which can be used to identify the country to which the GSM cell belongs. my country's MNC is 460. MNC is the mobile network code, which can be used to identify the operator to which the GSM cell belongs. my country's railway MNC is 20, China Mobile's MNC is 00, and China Unicom's MNC is 01. LAC is the location area identification code. GSM-R allocates different LAC codes to different railway lines, so the line to which the GSM-R cell belongs can be identified based on this. CI is the cell ID

[0075] Real-time spectrum processing module 160:

[0076] The real-time spectrum processing module is a spectrum analyzer, which is used to sample the input signal and perform spectrum analysis on the sampled signal. The time of spectrum analysis is shorter than the time of signal sampling.

[0077] Specifically, the real-time spectrum analyzer can capture signals with a duration of at least 27 microseconds with a 100% probability, which can ensure the capture of instantaneous interference signals. In actual application scenarios, the real-time bandwidth of the real-time spectrum analyzer is 40MHz, and the spectrum analysis of radio signals in the 925-965MHz downlink frequency band is performed in real time.

[0078] Real-time processing unit 170:

[0079] The real-time processing unit adopts a high-performance embedded processing module to receive the frequency sweeping results of the frequency sweeping processing module, the real-time spectrum processing results of the real-time processing module, and the sampling results of the multi-channel receiver to realize the identification of interference.

[0080] Specifically, the real-time processing unit receives the time-space positioning information and obtains the current cell carrier frequency configuration information through the basic database;

[0081] According to the time-space positioning information, carrier frequency configuration information and the radio signal received by the uniform circular array antenna, the adjacent GSM-R cell is identified, the multipath signal of the adjacent cell is monitored, and the multipath monitoring result is obtained;

[0082] Identify interference signals based on frequency scanning processing results, real-time spectrum processing results, multipath monitoring results, and carrier frequency configuration information to obtain interference identification results;

[0083] The current position information of the dynamic detection vehicle and the interference identification results are sent to the system controller.

[0084] refer to Figure 4 , is a schematic diagram of the process relationship of interference identification according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the interference that can be identified by the real-time processing unit includes all types of interference that affect the normal operation of GSM-R, including at least co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference, large signal blocking interference, intermodulation interference, and multipath interference.

[0085] Blocking interference refers to the interference caused by nonlinear distortion when a strong interference signal and a useful signal enter the receiver at the same time. Blocking interference will cause the receiver to not work properly, and long-term blocking may also cause permanent performance degradation of the receiver. Intermodulation interference refers to the interference caused when two or more interference signals are added to the receiver at the same time. Due to the effect of nonlinearity, the combined frequency of the interference signals may be equal to or close to the useful signal frequency and pass through the receiver smoothly.

[0086] Specifically, the decoding result of the frequency scanner is analyzed to determine whether there is a cell with an MNC other than 20. If so, the frequency point occupancy is determined;

[0087] Determine whether there is a cell with the same BCCH and LAC but different CI. If so, further determine whether the level difference between this cell and the same-frequency cell is less than 12dBm. If so, it is determined that there is same-frequency interference on this line.

[0088] Determine whether there is a cell with the same BCCH but different LAC. If so, further determine whether the level difference between this cell and the cell with the same frequency is less than 12dBm. If so, it is determined that there is adjacent line co-frequency interference.

[0089] Analyze the real-time spectrum processing results to determine whether there is blocking interference, and if so, determine that there is blocking interference;

[0090] Determine whether intermodulation interference exists, and if so, determine that intermodulation interference exists.

[0091] Determine whether there is an adjacent frequency signal. If so, further determine whether the level difference between the current cell and the adjacent frequency signal is less than -6dBm. If so, it is determined that adjacent frequency interference exists.

[0092] According to the current position information of the dynamic detection vehicle and the radio signal received by the uniform circular array antenna, the adjacent GSM-R cell is identified through the basic database, the multipath signal of the adjacent cell is monitored, and the multipath monitoring result is obtained;

[0093] Specifically, by analyzing the incoming direction of the current cell frequency point, it is determined whether there is a multipath signal. If so, it is further determined whether the level difference between the multipath signals is less than 12dBm. If so, it is determined that there is a multipath result.

[0094] Among them, the current position information refers to the information including the current line, type of vehicle, and position of the dynamic inspection vehicle. For example, "Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway Upward K100+008" means that the inspection vehicle is currently located at 100.008 km on the Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway Upward.

[0095] The basic database refers to an electronic table containing the information of GSM-R base stations on the railway line, which at least includes the base station name, base station location, base station frequency, base station BSIC, CI, etc. The real-time processing unit can obtain the information of base stations near the current location through the basic database.

[0096] The real-time processing unit uses a direction-of-arrival estimation algorithm to monitor multipath signals in neighboring cells.

[0097] After the above process of identifying multiple interferences, the interference identification result can be obtained, and the current position information of the dynamic detection vehicle and the interference identification result are sent to the system controller;

[0098] System controller 180, system display 190:

[0099] Finally, the system controller 180 marks the interference source information on the map and displays it in real time through the system display 190 .

[0100] It should be noted that, although several modules of the GSM-R interference source automatic identification device are mentioned in the above detailed description, this division is only exemplary and not mandatory. In fact, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the features and functions of two or more modules described above can be embodied in one module. Conversely, the features and functions of one module described above can be further divided into multiple modules to be embodied.

[0101] After introducing the apparatus of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, next, reference is made to Figure 5 A method for automatically identifying a GSM-R interference source according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is introduced.

[0102] Based on the same inventive concept, the present invention also proposes a method for automatically identifying a GSM-R interference source, such as Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0112] S510: The system controller marks the interference source information on the map and displays it in real time through the system display.

[0113] It should be noted that, although the operations of the method of the present invention are described in a specific order in the above embodiments and the accompanying drawings, this does not require or imply that the operations must be performed in the specific order, or that all the operations shown must be performed to achieve the desired results.
