Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of spacecraft communication technology, and in particular to a satellite rotating cabin signal transmission system and method based on an optoelectronic slip ring. Background Art

[0002] There are a large number of spacecraft in orbit, which have developed from satellites that did not carry scientific instruments and equipment to space stations and deep space landers with complex functions. In order to adapt to complex scenes or complete specific tasks, the mechanical structure of the spacecraft needs to rotate relative to each other. In order to ensure data transmission between relatively rotating spacecraft devices, conductive slip rings are needed to establish an electrical path for data transmission between relatively moving devices.

[0003] At present, in terms of signal transmission technology for satellite-borne rotating mechanisms, considering the reliability of signal transmission, products such as conductive slip rings are mainly used. Products such as conductive slip rings mainly face the following problems:

The signal stability during the transmission process is affected by the dynamic contact resistance of the conductive slip ring, which is prone to transmission errors;

[0005] 2. Existing conductive slip rings achieve signal transmission through friction contact, and their service life is related to the degree of wear;

[0006] 3. Common signal transmission and signal level conversion such as CAN bus, RS422 bus, LVDS, optical signal, etc. are relatively mature in the application of ground rotating mechanism equipment. In space applications such as satellites, they are limited by the life wear of the rotating mechanism and the reliability of signal transmission. The amount of data transmitted and the data rate between the existing conductive slip ring rotating parts and the fixed platform are limited.

[0007] 4. For existing conductive slip rings, the number of signal transmission paths is positively correlated with the number of loops of the conductive slip ring. As the number of signal transmission paths increases, the weight and volume of the conductive slip ring increase exponentially, which is not conducive to the lightweight and miniaturization of complex signal transmission of satellite-borne systems.

[0045] In the following description, the present invention is described with reference to various embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that various embodiments may be implemented without one or more specific details or with other replacement and / or additional methods or components. In other cases, well-known structures or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring the inventive point of the present invention. Similarly, for the purpose of explanation, specific numbers and configurations are set forth to provide a comprehensive understanding of embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to these specific details.

[0046] In this specification, reference to "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in various places in this specification does not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment.

[0047] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention describe the method steps in a specific order, but this is only for the purpose of illustrating the specific embodiment, rather than limiting the order of the steps. On the contrary, in different embodiments of the present invention, the order of the steps can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0048] In the present invention, each module of the system according to the present invention can be implemented using software, hardware, firmware or a combination thereof. When the module is implemented using software, the function of the module can be implemented by a computer program flow, for example, the module can be implemented by a code segment (such as a code segment of a language such as C, C++) stored in a storage device (such as a hard disk, a memory, etc.), wherein the corresponding function of the module can be implemented when the code segment is executed by a processor. When the module is implemented using hardware, the function of the module can be implemented by setting a corresponding hardware structure, for example, the function of the module can be implemented by hardware programming a programmable device such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA), or the function of the module can be implemented by designing an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) including electronic devices such as a plurality of transistors, resistors and capacitors.
