Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of radar signal sampling and processing technology, specifically, it relates to a TIADC mismatch error digital calibration method and system applied to radar data acquisition systems. Background Technology
[0002] Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are key components that convert analog signals into digital signals. Data acquisition systems with ADCs as their core components are widely used in modern electronic systems such as radar systems, communication systems, test instruments, and digitizers. Especially in radar systems, the signals received by radar are typically analog signals, which are continuous voltage waveforms. ADCs convert these analog signals into discrete digital samples. This allows the signals to be processed by digital systems, including storage, analysis, and display. The sampling rate of the ADC determines the system's response speed to the signal. Higher sampling rates can capture signal changes faster, thereby improving the response time of the radar system. Compared to the rapid increase in application requirements, the improvement rate of ADC manufacturing technology is much slower. It is now very difficult to manufacture ADCs that meet application requirements solely through technological advancements, causing the performance of data acquisition systems with ADCs as their core components to gradually become a performance bottleneck in modern electronic systems. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore how to achieve high-speed, high-resolution data acquisition systems using existing ADC chips.
[0003] Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TIADCs) employ multiple identical ADCs to sequentially sample the same signal source, effectively improving the overall sampling rate of the system and overcoming the performance limitations of single-channel ADCs. However, due to differences in the manufacturing processes of ADC chips, it is impossible to ensure that each ADC has identical physical characteristics, which directly affects the performance of TIADCs. These imperfect physical characteristics can cause mismatch problems in TIADCs, leading to uneven signal sampling and spurious components in the output signal. These mismatches mainly include bias mismatch, gain mismatch, and time mismatch. Therefore, exploring and calibrating the factors that limit the performance of TIADCs is crucial for improving the performance of data acquisition systems and enhancing the capabilities of radar systems, thereby increasing their reliability and efficiency in various applications.
[0004] Existing TIADC calibration methods primarily focus on signal processing, studying different filter structures and combining them with signal characteristics to complete the calibration. Some calibration methods are limited by the number of TIADC channels, some cannot overcome the Nyquist band limitation, and some require designing separate calibration algorithms for each mismatch, leading to a complex calibration process. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention proposes a digital calibration method and system for TIADC mismatch error in radar data acquisition systems. It works on the TIADC in the radar data acquisition system and solves the error problems caused by bias mismatch, gain mismatch and time mismatch inside the TIADC, thereby improving the performance indicators of the data acquisition system, enhancing the accuracy of data acquisition, and improving the reliability and efficiency of the radar.

Combine the actual output data of TIADC to construct a residual sequence containing all mismatch errors.
[0009] Step 2: Standardize the residual sequence from Step 1, which contains all mismatch errors, to make the feature scales of the data similar.
[0010] Step 3: Using the adaptive signal decomposition method, the standardized residual signal constructed in Step 2 is decomposed into sub-signals with different information granularities, and then the LSTM model is used for training to obtain the correlation of time series data in the signal.
[0011] Step 4: Initialize the residual data for estimation in online mode, perform standardization, and then adaptively decompose the residual data to construct the input of the LSTM model;

[0020] Furthermore, in step 3, the signal adaptive decomposition method is VMD decomposition: the normalized residual sequence y... e ′ rr Decomposition is performed, and multiple IMF components are obtained through VMD as y e ′ rr_IMF1 ~y e ′ rr_IMFn ;
[0021] Training using an LSTM model: The mapping function of the LSTM regression network is f LSTM (·),therefore:
[0022]
[0023] In the formula, X is the estimated value obtained from model training. train It is the reconstructed y′ err_IMF1 Each output value Corresponding to a set of corresponding X train The trained LSTM model is then used in the calibration phase.
[0024] Furthermore, in step 4, the initial residual data is y err The input to the LSTM model is X, which is (t){t=lk,...,l-1}. Preprocessing is required to satisfy the input conditions of the calibration model. VMD decomposition is performed on the residual data. test ,Y test The estimated values are generated by the following model:
[0025]
[0026] In the formula, X is the estimated value output by the model. test This is the residual signal used for testing.
[0027] Furthermore, in step 5, Reconstruction yields a standardized residual sequence. The residual estimation results are obtained by inverse normalization. Through real-time measured signal y out and new residual signals The calibrated TIADC signal is calculated as follows:

[0047] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] Combination Figures 1 to 9 .
[0049] A digital calibration method for TIADC mismatch error applied to radar data acquisition systems:
[0050] The method specifically includes the following steps, mainly divided into two parts: model training and calibration;
[0051] During the calibration model training phase, a neural network is used to learn the mapping relationship between the input and output signals. The neural network model is trained using the residual signal containing all mismatch errors to construct the input signal and the corresponding output signal. The neural network will learn to capture the mismatch information in the input signal and the correlation between the preceding and following data, and output an estimated residual signal for calibration.
[0052] Model training phase:
[0053] Step 1: In offline mode, select a pair of radar input and output data as labels to train the model. Calculate the ideal sampling output of the radar signal according to the mathematical formula of the input analog signal, or connect a high-end digital oscilloscope directly to the signal generator to collect the desired signal. Combine the actual output data of TIADC to construct a residual sequence containing all mismatch errors.
[0054] In step 1, the mismatch problem of TIADC is addressed from a time series perspective. To eliminate the impact of mismatch errors, a residual sequence containing all mismatch errors is constructed:
[0055] y err =y out -y exp (1)
[0056] In the formula y err (t){t=0,1,2,...,lk-1} is the constructed residual signal, y out For the TIADC system to output data, y exp This is the desired output signal, containing no mismatch error. In reality, y exp The signal can be calculated by inputting a mathematical formula from an analog signal, or acquired by directly connecting a high-end digital oscilloscope to a signal generator. The desired signal is used only once during model training and is not present during calibration.
[0057] Since the frequency of mismatch error is finite and calculable, and the information contained therein is fixed, the signal adaptive decomposition method can be used to decompose complex signals containing mismatch information into sub-signals with different information granularities.
[0058] Step 2: Standardize (normalize) the residual sequence from Step 1, which contains all mismatch errors, to make the feature scales of the data similar.
[0059] In step 2, normalizing the input signals ensures that their features have similar scales, thereby enhancing the model's generalization ability and performance. Normalization can also accelerate model convergence when data values are large. The constructed residual data is then standardized.
[0060]
[0061] In the formula y′ err ∈[0,1] represents the standardized residual data; y err For the original residual data, y max It is the maximum value of the original data, y min It is the minimum value of the original data; the constructed standardized residual signal provides input for subsequent signal decomposition and model training.
[0062] To achieve TIADC calibration, a neural network approach is used to explore the correlation of time-series data in the signal, and the powerful regression capability of the neural network is used to achieve calibration from a time-domain perspective.
[0063] Step 3: Using the adaptive signal decomposition method, the standardized residual signal constructed in Step 2 is decomposed into sub-signals with different information granularities, and then the LSTM model is used for training to obtain the correlation of time series data in the signal.
[0064] In step 3, the signal adaptive decomposition method is VMD decomposition: the normalized residual sequence y′ err The decomposition is performed, and multiple IMF components y′ are obtained through VMD. err_IMF1 ~y′ err_IMFn ;
[0065] Training using an LSTM model: The mapping function of the LSTM regression network is f LSTM (·),therefore:
[0066]
[0067] In the formula, X is the estimated value obtained from model training. train It is the reconstructed y′ err_IMF1Each output value Corresponding to a set of corresponding X train The trained LSTM model is then used in the calibration phase.
[0068] During calibration, a pre-trained neural network model is used to calibrate the input signal. By inputting the residual input signal used for estimation into the neural network, the estimated residual output signal can be obtained. Combined with the real-time TIADC output signal, the influence of mismatch error on the input signal is calculated and eliminated, resulting in a more accurate output signal.
[0069] Step 4, Calibration process as follows Figure 2 As shown, this is also equivalent to testing the model; radar data for real-time use is obtained in an online state, and residual data for estimation is obtained through initialization (data preprocessing). After standardization, the residual data is adaptively decomposed (VMD decomposition) to construct the input of the LSTM model.
[0070] In step 4, the initial residual data is y err The input to the LSTM model is X, which is (t){t=lk,...,l-1}. Preprocessing is required to satisfy the input conditions of the calibration model. VMD decomposition is performed on the residual data. test ,Y test The estimated values are generated by the following model:
[0071]
[0072] In the formula, X is the estimated value output by the model. test This is the residual signal used for testing.
[0073] Step 5: Use the model trained in Step 3 to perform residual estimation, reconstruction, and inverse standardization on the input data in Step 4. Combined with the collected real-time radar data stream to be processed, calculate the calibrated TIADC output data to verify the accuracy of the digital calibration of TIADC mismatch error.
[0074] In step 5, Reconstruction yields a standardized residual sequence. The residual estimation results are obtained by inverse normalization. Through real-time measured signal y out and new residual signals The calibrated TIADC signal is calculated as follows:
[0075]
[0076] Finally, the digital calibration of the TIADC mismatch error was completed.

[0078] The offline training module selects the input and output data of a pair of radars as labels to train the model in offline mode. It calculates the ideal sampling output of the radar signal according to the mathematical formula of the input analog signal, or directly connects a high-end digital oscilloscope to the signal generator to acquire the desired signal. Combined with the actual output data of TIADC, it constructs a residual sequence containing all mismatch errors. The residual sequence containing all mismatch errors is standardized to make the feature scales of the data similar. Using the signal adaptive decomposition method, the constructed standardized residual signal is decomposed into sub-signals with different information granularities. Then, the LSTM model is used for training to obtain the correlation of time series data in the signal.
[0079] The calibration module acquires real-time radar data in an online state, initializes residual data for estimation, performs standardization processing, adaptively decomposes the residual data, and constructs the input of the LSTM model. The model trained by the offline training module performs residual estimation, reconstruction, and inverse standardization on the input data of the LSTM model. Combined with the collected real-time radar data stream to be processed, the calibrated TIADC output data is calculated to verify the accuracy of the digital calibration of TIADC mismatch error.
[0080] The method of this invention is applied to radar systems to acquire and process echo signals to achieve functions such as target detection, tracking, and measurement. Using the TIADC calibration method can improve the measurement accuracy and target recognition capability of the radar system.
[0081] This invention can also be applied to communication systems, medical imaging, industrial automation, and various scientific research projects that require high-speed, high-precision data acquisition.
[0082] In communication systems, data such as high-speed data transmission, modulation / demodulation, and channel estimation are collected. By using the TIADC calibration method, the performance of the communication system can be improved, and the impact of mismatch errors on data transmission quality can be reduced.
[0083] In medical imaging fields such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET), high-precision signal acquisition and reconstruction are required to obtain accurate image information. The TIADC calibration method can help improve the resolution and accuracy of medical imaging systems.
[0084] In industrial automation, accurate data acquisition and analysis of various sensor signals are required to monitor and control the production process. Using the TIADC calibration method can improve the measurement accuracy and response speed of industrial automation systems.
[0085] In scientific research, such as physics experiments, astronomical observations, and biological signal acquisition, high-precision data acquisition is required to obtain accurate experimental results and signal analysis. The TIADC calibration method can help researchers eliminate the impact of mismatch errors on data, thereby improving the reliability and accuracy of research.

[0088] To simulate the actual sampling process, AWGN noise was added to the signal. In formula (1), y... err The total data length is 10000, i.e., l is 10000. During the calibration model training process, k is 2000, i.e., y err Of the data, 8000 were used for training, and the remaining 2000 were used for model testing, i.e., during the calibration process. err The length of the component. Based on the average instantaneous frequency of the component, the number of VMD decompositions is n = 3. Figure 3 This is the signal spectrum before calibration.

This system simulates the mismatch problem between the AD9467 chips. Measurement data acquired from this TIADC system is used to verify the calibration method. The AD9467 is a 16-bit 250MSPS chip, and the designed TIADC is a 16-bit 1GSPS system. Figure 8 This is the spectrum diagram when mismatch exists in the system. Figure 9 This is a calibrated TIADC spectrum based on the AD9467 chip. (Comparison is needed.) Figure 8 and Figure 9 It can be seen that, through the calibration algorithm proposed in this invention, the system SFDR is improved by 54.52dB and SNDR is improved by 42.12dB.
