Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical fields of deep space exploration, fine spectrum detection, and Chirp transform spectrum analyzer, and specifically relates to a method for improving the matching degree between the broadening line and the compression line of a Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system. Background Art
[0002] The spectrum analyzer system based on Chirp transform can analyze signals with an instantaneous large bandwidth, and this system has high sensitivity and can resolve signals with very small frequency intervals. Moreover, the spectrum analyzer system based on Chirp transform also has advantages such as low power consumption, small size, light weight, strong anti-interference ability, and high stability, and has comprehensive advantages in fields such as deep space exploration and radio astronomy. In 2004, the detection satellite Rosetta launched by the European Space Agency carried the Chirp transform spectrometer MIRO (Microwave Instrument ROSETTA Orbiter, MIRO) to study the structure of Comet 67P, and successfully analyzed H2O, N2, and several water isotopes. In 2010, the SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy, SOFIA) project jointly carried out by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States and the German Space Agency used a Boeing 747 aircraft equipped with a Chirp transform spectrometer to measure the molecular spectral lines at high altitudes, and further explored and studied the composition of the planetary surface and atmosphere, interstellar matter, etc. It is expected that the Jupiter Icy Moon Explorer JUICE to be launched in 2022 will also use a Chirp transform spectrometer to conduct precise spectrum detection on substances such as SO2, NaCl, and SO. The existing Chirp transform spectrometer with a bandwidth of 40 MHz and a resolution of 40 kHz is applied to the observation of water maser sources of 13.7 m radio telescopes and 25 m radio telescopes. In recent years, due to the outstanding advantages of the Chirp transform spectrometer in the field of deep space exploration, it has received extensive attention from researchers. However, there is still a large gap between the key performance parameters such as the resolution and the main side lobe level ratio of the existing Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system and the theoretical values, which cannot meet the requirements of deep space exploration applications.
[0003] Currently, the spectrum analyzer system based on Chirp transform mainly consists of two parts: a broadening line and a compression line. The broadening line is a device that generates the first multiplied Chirp signal, which is commonly generated by digital methods; the device for convolution is the compression line, which is generally composed of a SAW linear frequency modulation dispersion delay line. The slopes of the broadening line and the compression line must be the same in magnitude and opposite in direction to correctly generate a compressed pulse signal containing the spectral information of the measured signal. The time node of this pulse signal is related to the frequency information of the input signal, and the spectrum analysis of the measured signal is completed by measuring the distribution of the pulse signal on the time axis.
[0004] In the prior art, it is difficult to accurately match the stretching line and the compression line, resulting in an overly wide main lobe of the compression pulse waveform and a high side lobe level, which causes significant differences in key performance parameters such as the system frequency resolution and dynamic range.
[0005] The reasons for the difficulty in accurately matching the stretching line and the compression line are mainly the following two points:
[0006] 1. Problems with SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) compression line devices; as a SAW device for the compression line, the dispersion slope K is not a standard reference value and is not constantly equal to a specific value, and it is not equal everywhere within the bandwidth. The phase deviation caused by the SAW filter results in the situation where when the slopes of the stretching line and the compression line are "equal", it is not the optimal compression result of the system.
[0007] 2. Problems with the RF conditioning circuit; in the generation of the stretching line, since the power, bandwidth, etc. of the Chirp signal directly generated by the DAC (Digital to analog converter) do not meet the system design requirements, analog devices need to be added to improve the Chirp signal, but at the same time, more variables will be introduced, making the system more complex. On the one hand, the phase mismatch of the analog devices will cause the dispersion slope of the stretching line to be the same as that of the compression line, that is, it is not the same everywhere within the bandwidth, making the matching between the stretching line and the compression line more difficult. On the other hand, the inconsistent responses of the analog devices at different frequencies lead to a large deviation in the dispersion slope of the stretching line in different frequency bands, and there will be a large difference in the compression results in different frequency bands. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned defects existing in the prior art, the present invention proposes a method for improving the matching degree between the stretching line and the compression line of a Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system, and the method includes:

[0012] Step 4) Select a preset frequency interval step size, change the frequency of the measured signal, and repeat the above Step 2)-Step 3) until the frequency modulation slope of the stretching line with the optimal single-frequency point matching is determined for each single frequency point;

[0047] The present invention provides a method for improving the matching degree between the stretching line and the compression line of a Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system. In the Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system, the matching degree between the stretching line and the compression line is directly related to the performance parameters of the spectrum analyzer system. The method of the present invention is based on a Chirp transform spectrum analyzer system with a large bandwidth and high frequency.

Step 104) Select a preset frequency interval step size, change the frequency of the measured signal, and repeat the above steps 2)-3) until the broadening linear frequency modulation slope with the best match for each single frequency point is determined; wherein, in this embodiment, the bandwidth of the chirp transform spectrum analyzer system is 400 MHz, and the selected frequency interval step size is 50 MHz.
[0075] Step 105) Determine the best matching slope within the full frequency band of the system according to the broadening linear frequency modulation slope with the best match for each single frequency point.
[0076] Specifically, the best broadening linear dispersion slope diagram for each frequency point of the system is as Figure 5 shown, and the best slope within the full frequency band of the system is the average value of the best frequency modulation slopes for each frequency point.
