The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0021] In the process of satellite measurement and control, the antenna of the large-aperture relay satellite ground station needs to realize continuous and uninterrupted automatic tracking of satellite signals. Traditional antenna tracking systems can usually only use one signal tracking mode for tracking. Switching the tracking mode requires reloading the software or manual operation to achieve mode switching. It is unable to adapt to the intelligent conversion in the environment where multiple signal tracking modes coexist.
[0022] Due to the large antenna aperture and narrow beam, the program guidance is based on the TLE or instantaneous root orbit prediction obtained by the current orbit determination accuracy. The prediction error is generally around 0.1°~0.2°, which makes it extremely difficult to directly capture the self-tracking millimeter wave satellite signal. The usual method is to first track with centimeter waves (X band), then guide millimeter waves (Q band) to capture and then switch to automatic tracking. However, the existing antenna tracking system often lacks an intelligent switching mechanism and basically relies on manual judgment to switch modes. It is impossible to automatically select the optimal tracking mode based on signal quality, tracking effect and frequency band priority.
[0023] In order to solve the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide an antenna self-tracking control method, an antenna self-tracking system, a computer device and a computer-readable storage medium.
[0024] In one embodiment, a method for controlling antenna self-tracking is provided, by which the tracking mode of the antenna can be intelligently switched and the tracking effect can be ensured.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 The antenna self-tracking control method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps: Step S200: Control the antenna to track satellites according to the prediction program and continuously detect centimeter-wave satellite signals and millimeter-wave satellite signals.
[0026] The prediction program refers to the orbit prediction calculation based on the instantaneous number of satellite orbit elements or two-line elements sent by the center side. Generally, the satellite antenna pointing prediction of 20 points / second is calculated from the inbound antenna elevation angle of 3 degrees to the outbound antenna elevation angle of 3 degrees. The format is: time, azimuth, and pitch angle, and it is saved on the local side. When the control antenna works in the program-guided tracking mode (that is, the control antenna tracks the satellite according to the prediction program), the locally stored prediction can be called, and the prediction value can be loaded point by point in a time-matching manner. The control antenna points to the satellite according to the prediction value. The above process is the program-guided tracking mode.
[0027] In this embodiment, when the local side receives the satellite tracking plan time and orbital elements sent by the central side monitoring, the program is initialized, the macro command parameters of the corresponding satellite code are loaded, and the satellite orbit prediction is calculated. Then, the antenna is first controlled to track the satellite according to the prediction program, that is, according to the satellite orbit prediction time, azimuth, and pitch angle, the antenna is controlled to rotate in a time-matching manner, that is, entering the program tracking mode.
[0028] While entering the program tracking mode, centimeter wave (X-band) satellite signals and millimeter wave (Q-band) satellite signals are continuously detected. Before a centimeter wave satellite signal or a millimeter wave satellite signal is detected, the program tracking mode is maintained. Once a centimeter wave satellite signal or a millimeter wave satellite signal is detected, the subsequent intelligent judgment and mode switching links can be entered. Generally speaking, centimeter wave satellite signals will be received before millimeter wave satellite signals.
[0029] Step S400: When the centimeter-wave satellite signal is detected, it is determined whether the centimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking condition. If so, the antenna is controlled to perform satellite tracking according to the centimeter-wave satellite signal.
[0030] When a centimeter-wave satellite signal is detected, it is first determined whether the currently received centimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions. If the tracking conditions are met, the antenna can be controlled to track the satellite according to the centimeter-wave satellite signal, that is, the program tracking mode is switched to the centimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode.
[0031] In this embodiment, when in the centimeter wave satellite signal tracking mode, the millimeter wave satellite signal is continuously detected.
[0032] Step S600: When the millimeter wave satellite signal is detected, it is determined whether the millimeter wave satellite signal meets the tracking condition. If so, the antenna is controlled to perform satellite tracking according to the millimeter wave satellite signal.
[0033] When a millimeter-wave satellite signal is detected, similarly, it is first determined whether the currently received millimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions. If the tracking conditions are met, the antenna can be controlled to track the satellite according to the millimeter-wave satellite signal, that is, the centimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode is switched to the millimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode.
[0034] The antenna self-tracking control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can first control the antenna to track the satellite according to the forecast program, and at the same time continuously detect the centimeter wave satellite signal and the millimeter wave satellite signal. When the centimeter wave satellite signal is detected, it is determined whether the centimeter wave satellite signal meets the tracking condition. If the tracking condition is met, the antenna is controlled to track the satellite according to the centimeter wave satellite signal. At the same time, the millimeter wave satellite signal is continuously detected. When the millimeter wave satellite signal is detected, it is determined whether the millimeter wave satellite signal meets the tracking condition. If the tracking condition is met, the antenna is controlled to track the satellite according to the millimeter wave satellite signal. Through the above method, centimeter wave satellite signals and millimeter wave satellite signals can be continuously detected. Usually, the centimeter wave satellite signal is often detected first, and then the millimeter wave satellite signal is detected. In this embodiment, before the centimeter wave satellite signal is detected, the antenna is controlled to track the satellite according to the forecast program. When the centimeter wave satellite signal is detected and it meets the tracking condition, it is switched to the centimeter wave satellite signal with a high priority to track the satellite. When the millimeter wave satellite signal is detected and it meets the tracking condition, it is switched to the millimeter wave satellite signal with a higher priority to track the satellite. Thus, while ensuring continuous tracking of the satellite, the signal tracking mode can be intelligently switched according to the actual situation and the priority level, and the tracking effect can be guaranteed.
[0035] In one of the embodiments, step S400 may also include the following steps: if it is determined that the centimeter-wave satellite signal does not meet the tracking conditions, controlling the antenna to continue satellite tracking according to the prediction procedure, and dynamically calibrating the centimeter-wave satellite signal until the centimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions.
[0036] When a centimeter-wave satellite signal is detected but does not meet the tracking conditions, the antenna's working mode is not switched, that is, the antenna continues to be controlled to track the satellite according to the forecast program, and the centimeter-wave satellite signal is dynamically phased to make the centimeter-wave satellite signal meet the tracking conditions. Specifically, in the program tracking mode, the receiver can be automatically pulled to a small angle, and the error voltage output by the receiver can be read to achieve fast phase calibration. Generally, the number of phase calibrations is 1 to 3 times to ensure stable antenna tracking.
[0037] Similarly, step S600 may also include the following steps: if it is determined that the millimeter wave satellite signal does not meet the tracking conditions, controlling the antenna to keep tracking the satellite according to the centimeter wave satellite signal, and dynamically calibrating the millimeter wave satellite signal until the millimeter wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions.
[0038] When a millimeter-wave satellite signal is detected but does not meet the tracking conditions, the working mode of the antenna is not switched at this time, that is, the antenna continues to be controlled to track the satellite according to the centimeter-wave satellite signal, and the millimeter-wave satellite signal is dynamically phase-corrected so that the millimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions. Specifically, in the centimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode, the receiver can be automatically pulled to a small angle to read the error voltage output by the receiver to achieve rapid phase correction. Generally, the number of phase corrections is 1 to 3 times to ensure stable tracking of the antenna. When the millimeter-wave satellite signal meets the tracking conditions, the centimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode is switched to the millimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode, that is, the antenna is controlled to track the satellite according to the millimeter-wave satellite signal.
[0039] In one of the embodiments, the centimeter-wave satellite signal and the millimeter-wave satellite signal both include at least one of a demodulated tracking error signal, an AGC level signal, and a signal lock indication.
[0040] After the ground antenna tracking system receives the centimeter-wave satellite signal or the millimeter-wave satellite signal, it first performs signal processing such as amplification, frequency conversion, and demodulation on the satellite signal, and then obtains at least one of the demodulated tracking error signal, AGC level signal, and signal lock indication.
[0041] In step S400 or step S600, i.e., the step of determining whether the centimeter-wave satellite signal or the millimeter-wave satellite signal satisfies the tracking condition, if any one of the following conditions is not met, it is determined that the centimeter-wave satellite signal or the millimeter-wave satellite signal does not satisfy the tracking condition: (1) The signal lock indicates the locked state; (2) The AGC level is greater than or equal to the set value; (3) The tracking error is less than or equal to the allowable error value; (4) Voltage polarization: positive biased negative voltage, negative biased positive voltage.
[0042] In one embodiment, the tracking error signal may include an azimuth error voltage and a pitch error voltage. The tracking error in the above tracking condition is less than or equal to the error allowable value, which may include that the azimuth error voltage jitter and the pitch error voltage jitter are both less than or equal to the first error allowable value, and the azimuth error voltage slope and the pitch error voltage slope are both less than or equal to the second error allowable value. For example, the azimuth / pitch error voltage jitter may be set to be less than or equal to 1.5 volts, and the azimuth / pitch error voltage may be set to be less than or equal to 5 volts / mil.
[0043] In addition, during the tracking process, special situations may occur, such as signal loss (loss of lock), excessive level fluctuation, decreased tracking accuracy, etc. In order to deal with the above special situations and ensure the tracking effect, in one embodiment, in step S400, i.e., the step of controlling the antenna to track the satellite according to the centimeter wave satellite signal, the signal quality of the centimeter wave satellite signal is detected in real time. If the signal quality of the centimeter wave satellite signal is abnormal, the process returns to the step of controlling the antenna to track the satellite according to the forecast program.
[0044] In one of the embodiments, in step S600, i.e., in the step of controlling the antenna to track satellites according to millimeter-wave satellite signals, the signal quality of the millimeter-wave satellite signals is detected in real time. If the signal quality of the millimeter-wave satellite signals is abnormal, the method returns to the step of controlling the antenna to track satellites according to centimeter-wave satellite signals.
[0045] That is, in both centimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode and millimeter-wave satellite signal tracking mode, it is possible to monitor signal quality in real time and dynamically adjust tracking parameters to ensure optimal tracking effect.
[0046] Specifically, the signal quality detection criteria are consistent with the tracking condition detection criteria mentioned above, that is, whether the current satellite signal meets the above four conditions. If any of the conditions is not met, it is determined that the signal quality of the current satellite signal is abnormal. Assuming that the current mode is in millimeter wave satellite signal tracking mode, if the signal quality of the millimeter wave satellite signal is detected to be abnormal, the centimeter wave satellite signal tracking mode is returned. If the current mode is in centimeter wave satellite signal tracking mode, if the signal quality of the centimeter wave satellite signal is detected to be abnormal, the program tracking mode is returned.
[0047] Through the real-time detection results of the signal quality of the satellite signal, the antenna can be controlled to automatically switch to the optimal tracking mode to ensure the signal reception quality and uninterrupted tracking of the antenna.
[0048] In this embodiment, during the above tracking process, when it is detected that the tracking time reaches a preset time, the antenna is controlled to stop satellite tracking and enter a standby state to wait for the next task.
[0049] Reference Figure 2In one embodiment, an antenna self-tracking system is provided, comprising an antenna 100, a dual-band feed 200, a first tracking channel 310, a first tracking receiver 320, a second tracking channel 330, a second tracking receiver 340, and a control unit 400. The dual-band feed 200 is connected to the antenna 100 to receive centimeter-wave satellite signals and millimeter-wave satellite signals tracked by the antenna 100. The first tracking receiver 320 is connected to the dual-band feed 200 via the first tracking channel 310 to process the centimeter-wave satellite signals. The second tracking receiver 340 is connected to the dual-band feed 200 via the second tracking channel 330 to process the millimeter-wave satellite signals. The control unit 400 is respectively connected to the antenna 100, the first tracking receiver 320, and the second tracking receiver 340, wherein the control unit 400 can be connected to the antenna 100 via the driving unit 500. The control unit 400 is configured to execute the antenna self-tracking control method provided in the above embodiment.
[0050] Specifically, for medium-orbit relay satellite ground stations, a large-aperture X / Q dual-band antenna can be selected. The half-power beamwidth of the X-band antenna is approximately 0.2°, and the half-power beamwidth of the Q-band antenna is approximately 0.043°.
[0051] For X-band tracking of measurement and control signals, a single-channel single-pulse tracking method can be adopted, and for Q-band digital transmission signal tracking, a dual-channel single-pulse tracking method can be adopted. When the satellite enters the coverage area of the ground station antenna, the antenna can first guide the antenna to track the satellite according to the center plan and orbital root number program. The X-band measurement and control sum and difference RF signals output by the antenna feed are amplified by their respective low-noise fields, synthesized into single-channel signals in the first tracking channel, and then frequency-converted to 70MHz intermediate frequency, and sent to the spread spectrum tracking receiver (i.e., the first tracking receiver). After the receiver demodulates the tracking error signal, AGC level, and lock indication, it is sent to the control unit. At the same time, the Q-band digital transmission sum and difference RF signals output by the antenna feed are amplified by their respective low-noise fields, converted to 70MHz intermediate frequency, and sent to the digital transmission tracking receiver (i.e., the second tracking receiver) through the second tracking channel. After the receiver demodulates the tracking error signal, AGC level, and lock indication, it is sent to the control unit. When the control unit receives the satellite signals of each band, it can execute the corresponding self-tracking control method.
