Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of interference sensing, and in particular to a method and system for sensing interference within the standard TT&C signal band. Background Technology

[0002] In wireless telemetry and communication systems, signal receiving equipment may face interference in two main categories: intentional interference and unintentional interference. Unintentional interference includes co-channel interference from other communication systems and natural electromagnetic interference. Co-channel interference from other communication systems includes interference from 4G / 5G base stations, low-orbit satellites, and high-orbit satellites, while natural electromagnetic interference includes interference from industrial equipment and lightning. Intentional interference includes relay interference and deliberate interference from jamming aircraft / jamming pods.

[0003] If interference exists in the environment and reaches a certain intensity, it will affect the normal operation of the system. Interference sensing can effectively identify interference in cooperative signal reception, providing input for interference suppression and information on interference conditions for link performance anomaly review.

[0004] Currently, research on interference signal perception mainly focuses on interference perception under different conditions during and outside the silent period of a radio system. During the silent period, there are no cooperative communication signals from the radio system, and only interference signals within the noise need to be considered. During the non-silent period, cooperative communication signals exist, requiring the detection and identification of interference signals from these signals. Interference signal perception during the non-silent period is more difficult than during the silent period. The analysis of interference signals primarily employs time-domain analysis, frequency-domain analysis, and transform-domain analysis, using commonly used methods for single-tone, multi-tone, narrowband, wideband, and frequency-sweeping interference. In the non-silent period, frequency-domain interference signal perception analysis is challenging because the presence of cooperative communication signals often results in spectral aliasing between the interference signals and the cooperative communication signals, complicating the analysis process.

[0005] In the field of aerospace telemetry and control, standard TT&C signals are widely used as a standard practice. Standard TT&C signals are implemented using the "frequency division multiplexing" principle. Multiple subcarriers are used to adjust the angle on a single carrier wave, achieving frequency division multiplexing for multiple signal transmission. Each subcarrier performs a single function, thus enabling multi-functional integration in telemetry and control. The residual carrier component in the signal is used for angle tracking and Doppler frequency shift measurement. Standard TT&C signals have multiple carriers and discrete single-tone spectral lines in their spectrum, resulting in a relatively complex spectral appearance. When interference signals are mixed in, aliasing easily occurs in the spectrum, making in-band interference sensing and analysis difficult.

[0006] Currently, there are three common methods for dealing with non-quiet periods: 1) Modeling cooperative communication signals, storing cooperative communication signal templates, and subtracting the spectrum of cooperative communication signals before interference detection; 2) Using intelligent methods to construct network separators, analyzing the spectra of cooperative communication signals and interference signals, and then analyzing the interference; 3) Designing special processing based on the spectral characteristics of cooperative communication signals. Of these three methods, the first requires preliminary modeling work and also has amplitude matching issues; the second method requires extensive offline training, and the deployment of intelligent algorithms requires computing power, placing certain requirements on the hardware platform used in actual engineering; the third method is only applicable to specific cooperative communication signals, and its scope of application is limited.

[0007] For standard TT&C signals, each of the three methods described above has its own shortcomings. However, considering the amount of prior information required and the complexity of the processing, the third method is simpler and easier to implement. Furthermore, there are currently no interference sensing methods specifically designed based on the characteristics of standard TT&C signals. Therefore, designing an in-band interference sensing method based on the spectral characteristics of standard TT&C signals has significant engineering application implications. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the challenges of detecting, identifying, and analyzing in-band interference signals in standard TT&C signals due to their complex in-band spectrum, this paper presents a method and system for sensing in-band interference in standard TT&C signals. Utilizing the characteristics of the left-right symmetry of the in-band spectral envelope and the uniform distribution of single-tone spectral lines in standard TT&C signals, this method enables high-accuracy detection and identification of interference signals, providing support for further interference parameter analysis.

[0009] The first aspect of this invention proposes a standard TT&C signal in-band interference sensing method, comprising:

[0010] Step S1: Downconvert the received signal to a zero intermediate frequency signal, and then perform FFT transformation to obtain the spectrum data;

[0011] Step S2: Based on the spectral gradient, the single-tone points in the spectral data are filtered out, and based on the left and right symmetry of each single-tone point along the center frequency point, it is determined whether there is single-tone interference, and the single-tone interference frequency point and each secondary single-tone point of the standard TT&C signal are determined; wherein, each secondary single-tone point does not include the center main single-tone point;

[0012] Step S3: Determine the decision threshold η3 based on the effective out-of-band and filter edge spectral regions of the TT&C signal;

[0013] Step S4: Based on the decision threshold, filter out the frequency points in the spectrum data in step S1 that may contain interference, and determine whether there is in-band broadband interference and narrowband interference based on the spectrum continuity to obtain the frequency points of the interference signal.

[0014] Step S5: Using the frequency points of the interference signal, revise the amplitude values ​​of each level of the single-tone point of the standard TT&C signal; wherein, each level of single-tone point includes the center main single-tone point;

[0015] Step S6: Combine the preset threshold and the symmetry of each level of single-tone points to determine whether there is single-tone interference on each single-tone point; if multiple single-tone interferences are detected in the band, it is determined to be multi-tone interference;

[0016] Step S7, combining the judgment results of steps S2, S5 and S6, yields the interference perception result.

[0017] Furthermore, in step S2, the method for filtering single audio points is as follows: for frequency point ω n Calculate the amplitude ΔX - =|X(ω) n )|-|X(ω n-1 )|,ΔX + =|X(ω) n )|-|X(ω n+1 If ΔX - ,ΔX + If all frequencies are greater than the decision threshold η0, then frequency points ω are selected. n It is a single audio point.

[0018] Furthermore, in step S2, the specific method for determining whether single-tone interference exists is as follows:

[0019] Step S2.1: Based on the selected single-audio points, calibrate ω. n The frequency point with 0 is the center frequency point. Take the first single-tone point to the left of the center frequency point and calculate the frequency difference between it and the center frequency point; take the first single-tone point to the right of the center frequency point and calculate the frequency difference between it and the center frequency point.

[0020] Step S2.2: If the absolute value of the difference between the two frequency differences is less than the decision threshold η1, then the two single-tone points are marked as undetermined frequency points, and proceed to step S2.3; otherwise, the single-tone point with the smaller frequency difference is marked as a single-tone interference frequency point, and proceed to step S2.4.

[0021] Step S2.3: Select the next single-tone point to the left and right respectively, calculate the frequency difference between the two and the center frequency point, and proceed to step S2.2;

[0022] Step S2.4: Take the next single-tone frequency point away from the center frequency point based on the single-tone interference frequency point, calculate its frequency difference with the center frequency point, and obtain the frequency difference between the other single-tone frequency point that was not calibrated in step S2.2 and the center frequency point, and then proceed to step S2.2.

[0023] Step S2.5: Repeat steps S2.2 to S2.4 until all single-tone points are calibrated;

[0024] Step S2.6: For all calibrated undetermined frequency points, calculate the frequency difference between adjacent single-tone points to obtain the maximum frequency difference. If the absolute value of the difference between the current frequency point and its left adjacent single-tone point, the current frequency point and its right adjacent single-tone point, and the maximum frequency difference is all less than the judgment threshold η2, then the current frequency point is determined to be a single-tone interference frequency point; otherwise, the current frequency point is determined to be a secondary single-tone point of the standard TT&C signal. Repeat step S2.4 until the judgment of all undetermined frequency points is completed.

[0025] Furthermore, in step S3, the decision threshold η3 is calculated as follows:

[0026]

[0027] Where ω m ω is the filter edge frequency. n This refers to the edge frequency of the effective frequency band of the TT&C signal.

[0028] Furthermore, in step S4, the method for determining the interference frequency point is as follows:

[0029] Step S4.1: Compare the amplitude of each frequency point in the spectrum data in step S1 with the decision threshold η3. If it is greater than the threshold, then select the frequency point as a re-screening undetermined frequency point.

[0030] Step S4.2: Cluster all the frequency points to be determined by rescreening; where the frequency points with continuous and uninterrupted frequencies are one cluster;

[0031] Step S4.3: If the cluster does not contain any of the secondary single-tone points of the standard TT&C signal, then the cluster is an interference signal frequency point; if the cluster contains any of the secondary single-tone points of the standard TT&C signal, then proceed to step S4.4.

[0032] Step S4.4: Check if there are clusters at the single-tone point positions symmetrical along the zero intermediate frequency. If not, determine that the current cluster is an interference signal frequency point. If there are clusters, check the symmetry conditions of the spectral envelopes of the two clusters and the symmetry conditions of the spectral envelope of the cluster itself. If the spectral envelopes of the two clusters do not meet the symmetry conditions, the cluster that does not meet the symmetry conditions of its own spectral envelope is an interference signal frequency point.

[0033] Step S4.5: If the spectral width of the interference signal frequency cluster is less than 10% of the effective frequency band of the TT&C signal, it is narrowband interference; if it is greater than 10% of the effective frequency band of the TT&C signal, it is broadband interference.

[0034] Furthermore, in step S4.4, the symmetry condition check process of the spectral envelopes of the two clusters is as follows: based on the symmetrical alignment of the single-tone points contained in the clusters, the correlation coefficient of the spectral envelopes of the two clusters is calculated. If the correlation coefficient value is greater than the judgment threshold η4, then the two clusters satisfy the symmetry condition.

[0035] Furthermore, in step S4.4, the symmetry condition check process of the cluster's own spectral envelope is as follows: the correlation coefficient of the left and right spectral envelopes is calculated based on the single audio points contained in the cluster. If the correlation coefficient value is greater than the judgment threshold η4, then the cluster's own spectral envelope satisfies the symmetry condition.

[0036] Furthermore, in step S5, the revised method is as follows: calculate the average amplitude value of the frequency cluster of the interference signal containing a single audio point, and deduct the component of the average amplitude value from the amplitude value of the single audio point.

[0037] Furthermore, in step S6, the method for determining whether there is single-tone interference at each single-tone point includes:

[0038] Calculate the amplitude difference between single-tone points symmetrical to the left and right of the zero center frequency. If the difference is greater than the judgment threshold η5, then there is single-tone interference at the single-tone point with the larger amplitude value.

[0039] For the zero center frequency point, the amplitude is compared with the nearby single-tone frequency point without single-tone interference. If the amplitude ratio is greater than the judgment threshold η6, then there is single-tone interference at the zero center frequency point.

[0040] A second aspect of this invention provides a standard TT&C signal in-band interference sensing system, comprising:

[0041] The FFT module is used to transform time-domain digital signals into frequency-domain data and output them to the single-tone point filtering module and the decision threshold η3 calculation module.

[0042] The single-tone point filtering module is used to filter out single-tone points from the noise floor and signal of the spectrum data and output them to the signal and interference single-tone point calibration module.

[0043] The signal and interference single-tone point calibration module is used to identify the signal's secondary single-tone points and interference single-tone points from the selected single-tone points, output the interference single-tone points to the interference perception result processing module, and output the signal's secondary single-tone points to the signal single-tone point amplitude correction module and the broadband and narrowband interference determination module.

[0044] The decision threshold η3 calculation module is used to calculate the decision threshold and output the calculated threshold to the interference frequency point screening module.

[0045] The interference frequency screening module is used to determine possible interference frequency points from the received signal spectrum based on the decision threshold η3, and output the results to the broadband and narrowband interference determination module.

[0046] The broadband and narrowband interference determination module is used to cluster possible interference frequency points to determine whether they are interference, as well as the broadband and narrowband types of interference, and output the results to the signal single-tone point amplitude correction module and the interference perception result processing module.

[0047] The single-tone amplitude correction module is used to correct the impact of broadband and narrowband interference on the amplitude value of the single-tone point of the signal, so as to facilitate subsequent processing. The corrected amplitude result is output to the single-tone interference determination module at each single-tone point of the signal.

[0048] The single-tone interference determination module at each single-tone point of the signal is used to determine whether single-tone interference exists at each single-tone point of the signal, and outputs the determination result to the interference perception result processing module; and

[0049] The interference perception result processing module is used to process the interference decision outputs of the signal and interference single-tone point calibration module, the broadband and narrowband interference determination module, and the single-tone interference determination module at each single-tone point of the signal, and output the final perception result.

[0050] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows:

[0051] 1) This invention utilizes the spectral characteristics of the standard TT&C signal to identify the frequency points of the TT&C signal and the interference signal, even when only the effective bandwidth of the standard TT&C signal is known.

Based on ω tp The presence of single-tone interference is determined by assessing the left-right symmetry of each single-tone point along the center frequency. This identifies the frequency of the single-tone interference and the positions of the secondary single-tone points of the standard TT&C signal. The secondary single-tone points of the standard TT&C signal are those excluding the central primary single-tone point. The specific steps are as follows:
