TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of wireless communication signal processing, in particular to a Ku-band Starlink downlink signal interference suppression method, system, device and medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] The Starlink system is a mature commercial low-orbit satellite communication system that can provide satellite Internet services worldwide. The Starlink system uses a 10.7 GHz to 12.75 GHz frequency range in the Ku band for downlink communication to transmit data on the satellite to the ground user terminal. However, a huge constellation like Starlink, which has a large scale and time-varying communication links, has a large number of interference sources and strong dynamic characteristics in the inter-constellation and intra-constellation interference problems.
[0003] Traditional interference detection methods can be divided into time domain methods and frequency domain methods. Among them, the frequency domain method mostly uses the Forward Continuous Mean Elimination (FCME) algorithm and its improved algorithm to detect narrowband interference, and then uses zeroing method, scaling method and other interference suppression methods to process the detected interference signals to reduce the impact of interference on communication signals. However, this detection method ignores the frequency spectrum leakage problem of the interference signal when the signal is truncated and subjected to Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) transformation. This leakage causes all subcarriers to be affected by interference.
[0004] In the satellite-ground communication scenario, the ground satellite terminal is limited by both power consumption and hardware performance. In this case, it is undoubtedly of practical significance to explore an interference suppression method that has low complexity and guarantees good performance.
[0005] In order to avoid the influence of spectrum leakage in the interference suppression process, the traditional continuous interference suppression algorithm is based on hard decision to estimate the subcarrier interference in turn, then linearly predicts the interference estimation results of the previous k subcarriers, and iteratively feeds back the interference estimation results to improve the interference estimation accuracy and reduce the interference spectrum leakage, so as to improve the system interference suppression performance, but the use of hard decision will lose a lot of useful information, resulting in that the interference suppression performance cannot be greatly improved. In addition, the interference suppression technology based on modulated lapped biorthogonal transform (MLBT, Modulated Lapped Biorthogonal Transform) has better bit error rate performance and stronger robustness to interference frequency offset compared with the traditional FFT, but the calculation complexity of MLBT is much higher than that of FFT. In addition, there is an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) narrowband interference cancellation technology based on interference alignment, but how to detect the frequency of the interference signal is not analyzed.
[0006] There are still many challenges in the suppression method of narrowband interference, which are as follows:
[0007] 1. The traditional method of using a prediction error filter to detect interference in the time domain needs to be iterated several times to achieve good interference detection performance, which has long convergence time and high calculation complexity, and is not suitable for application in satellites which are limited in power consumption and hardware performance.
[0008] 2. When detecting interference in the signal, the frequency domain detection algorithm represented by FCME ignores the spectrum leakage problem caused by misaligned OFDM subcarrier frequencies. Taking narrowband interference as an example, when the interference power is large, many subcarriers near the corresponding interference frequency point are also strongly interfered due to spectrum leakage, resulting in poor interference suppression effect.
[0009] 3. Some existing methods to avoid spectrum leakage in the interference suppression process have poor performance or high calculation complexity, which are not suitable for application in satellite-terrestrial communication scenarios.
[0010] 4. There is a method of using interference alignment to avoid spectrum leakage, but this method needs to accurately estimate the frequency of narrowband interference, and using a longer FFT point number or using ZOOM-FFT (Zoom Fast Fourier Transform) to increase the spectral resolution faces the problem of high calculation complexity.
[0011] 5. Even if spectrum alignment is performed, a small amount of spectrum leakage will still occur due to the impact of alignment accuracy. Most existing methods only set the aligned interference frequency to zero, but ignore the fact that several surrounding subcarriers may still be affected by spectrum leakage. Summary of the Invention
[0012] Based on the problems raised in the background technology above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method, system, device and medium for suppressing Ku-band Starlink downlink signal interference, which solves the problem of spectral leakage that occurs when the OFDM subcarrier frequency is not aligned, which is ignored in the prior art.
[0013] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0014] The first aspect of this invention provides a method for suppressing Ku-band Starlink downlink signal interference, comprising the following steps:
[0015] Receive OFDM signals based on starlink frame structure, segment the OFDM signals to obtain segmented signals;
[0016] Perform a Fast Fourier Transform on the segmented signal to obtain the frequency domain signal;
[0017] The FCME algorithm is used to locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal and obtain the interference range.
[0018] The DTFT algorithm is used to locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal within the interference range, thereby obtaining the interference frequency.
[0019] Calculate the frequency offset value based on the interference frequency, and perform spectrum shifting on the frequency domain signal based on the frequency offset value to obtain a spectrum-shifted signal.
[0020] The spectrum-shifted signal is subjected to inverse Fourier transform and inverse spectrum shift in sequence to obtain a narrowband interference suppression signal.
[0021] In the above technical solution, firstly, OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) signals from the Starlink system are received. The OFDM signals are transmitted in the form of Starlink frame structure (i.e., Starlink frame structure). The OFDM signals are segmented, and the segmented signals are subjected to Fast Fourier Transform to convert the segmented signals to the frequency domain, thus obtaining frequency domain signals. At this time, the frequency domain signals are the segmented signals in the frequency domain.
[0022] Then, the FCME algorithm is used to preliminarily locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal to obtain an interference range. However, only using the FCME algorithm to locate the interference of the signal, due to the limited accuracy of the interference frequency estimation, spectrum leakage occurs when the FFT is transformed, resulting in poor interference suppression effect. Therefore, the FCME algorithm is used to preliminarily locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal to determine the range of the interference frequency, and then the DTFT (Discrete-Time Fourier Transform) algorithm is used to perform spectrum refinement in the interference range, thereby further locating the narrowband interference frequency, so as to obtain a more accurate interference frequency.
[0023] Further, the interference frequency determined by the DTFT is used to calculate a frequency offset value, and then the frequency domain signal (i.e., the segmented signal in the frequency domain) is spectrum shifted according to the frequency offset value, and the interference is aligned through the spectrum shifting, thereby realizing the interference suppression of the Ku band satellite downlink signal.
[0024] Finally, the spectrum shifted signal is sequentially inverse Fourier transformed and spectrum inversely shifted, at this time, the suppression of the narrowband interference is completed.

[0033] Step E, if the second interfered frequency point set and the second non-interfered frequency point set remain stable, extracting a frequency point with a maximum amplitude from the second interfered frequency point set, and generating an interference range based on the frequency point with the maximum amplitude; otherwise, repeating steps C to D.
[0034] In an optional embodiment, a narrowband interference frequency positioning algorithm is used to locate the interference frequency in the interference range, including the following steps:

[0069] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, further detailed description will be given below in combination with embodiments and drawings, and the schematic embodiments of the present application and the description thereof are only used for explaining the present application, and do not limit the present application.
[0070] Embodiment 1
[0071] The embodiment 1 of the present application provides a Ku-band satellite chain downlink signal interference suppression method, which comprises the following steps:
[0072] An OFDM signal based on a satellite chain frame structure is received, and the OFDM signal is segmented to obtain a segmented signal;
[0073] Fast Fourier transform is performed on the segmented signal to obtain a frequency domain signal;
[0074] An FCME algorithm is used to locate a narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal to obtain an interference range;
[0075] A DTFT algorithm is used to locate a narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal in the interference range to obtain an interference frequency;
[0076] A frequency offset value is calculated according to the interference frequency, and a spectrum shift is performed on the frequency domain signal according to the frequency offset value to obtain a spectrum shifted signal;
[0077] Inverse Fourier transform and spectrum inverse shift are sequentially performed on the spectrum shifted signal to obtain a narrowband interference suppression signal.
[0078] It should be noted that at present, when the Ku band satellite chain downlink signal is interfered, the problem of spectrum leakage caused by fast Fourier transform when the OFDM signal is aligned with the subcarrier frequency is ignored, and due to the spectrum leakage, many subcarriers near the corresponding interference frequency point are also strongly interfered, so that many subcarriers outside the interference frequency point are also interfered, and after the interference suppression operation, a large amount of useful information is destroyed, finally the communication performance is reduced, so that the effect of signal interference suppression is not good. Therefore, aiming at the problem of spectrum leakage, a Ku band satellite chain downlink signal interference suppression method is proposed, as shown in Figure 1 As shown in the figure, first, OFDM signals (OFDM, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) from the satellite system are received, wherein the OFDM signals are transmitted in the form of the frame structure of the satellite system, that is, the satellite frame structure; the segmented signals after segmentation are subjected to fast Fourier transform to convert the segmented signals into frequency domain to obtain frequency domain signals, at this time, the frequency domain signals are segmented signals in the frequency domain.
[0079] Then, the FCME algorithm is used to preliminarily locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal to obtain the interference range; however, only using the FCME algorithm to locate the interference of the signal will lead to poor interference suppression effect due to spectrum leakage. Therefore, after the FCME algorithm is used to preliminarily locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal to determine the range of the interference frequency, the DTFT (Discrete-Time Fourier Transform) algorithm is used to perform spectrum refinement within the interference range, and further narrowband interference frequency positioning is realized, so that more accurate interference frequency is obtained.
[0080] Further, the frequency offset value is calculated by using the interference frequency determined by the DTFT, and then the frequency domain signal (i.e. the segmented signal in the frequency domain) is subjected to spectrum shift according to the frequency offset value, and the interference alignment is completed through the spectrum shift, so that the interference suppression of the Ku band satellite chain downlink signal is realized without spectrum leakage.
[0081] Finally, the spectrum shift signal is subjected to inverse Fourier transform and spectrum inverse shift in sequence, at this time, one time of narrowband interference suppression is completed.
[0082] Further, the spectrum shift and inverse Fourier transform and spectrum inverse shift are repeated until all the narrowband interference determined by the FCME-DTFT algorithm is subjected to one time of suppression operation, and the OFDM signal after the narrowband interference suppression is output.
[0083] In an alternative embodiment, the OFDM signal is segmented, including the following steps:
[0084] The symbol length of the OFDM signal is determined, and the OFDM signal is segmented according to the symbol length;
[0085] The cyclic prefix in the segmented OFDM signal is removed to obtain a segmented signal.
[0086] It should be noted that the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbol length is determined by the number of subcarriers and the subcarrier spacing; the smaller the subcarrier spacing, the longer the symbol length. In this embodiment, the symbol length of each OFDM signal based on the Starlink frame structure is 1056, which includes a 32-point cyclic prefix, so the segmentation length is set to 1056 according to the symbol length, and the OFDM signal is segmented by the segmentation length, and the cyclic prefix is removed after segmentation, thereby obtaining the time domain expression of the segmented signal of the first OFDM symbol .
[0087] ;
[0088] ;
[0089] In the above formula, represents the OFDM signal, represents the interference signal, represents the noise, represents the received signal, represents the number of OFDM subcarriers, represents the cyclic prefix length, represents the discrete sampling point.
[0090] As Figure 2 shown, after the OFDM signal is divided, the segmented signal obtained is a time domain signal, therefore, the segmented signal is subjected to 1024-point FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) transformation to obtain a frequency domain signal .
[0091] Further, considering that noise may affect the size of the spectral line value, in order to prevent subsequent missed detection, in this embodiment, the frequency domain signal is subjected to sliding filtering to obtain a sliding filtered frequency domain signal .
[0092] In an alternative embodiment, the FCME algorithm is used to locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal, including the following steps:
[0093] Step A, arranging the frequency domain signal in ascending order according to the spectral line amplitudes of the frequency domain signal, extracting the minimum spectral line amplitudes from the frequency domain signal arranged in ascending order;
[0094] Step B, taking the frequency points corresponding to the minimum spectral line amplitudes in the frequency domain signal as a first set of non-interfered frequency points, and taking the remaining frequency points in the frequency domain signal as a first set of interfered frequency points;
[0095] Step C, calculating the first set of non-interfered frequency points to obtain a decision threshold;
[0096] Step D, taking the frequency points smaller than the decision threshold in the first set of interfered frequency points as decision elements, removing all decision elements in the first set of interfered frequency points to generate a second set of interfered frequency points, and merging all decision elements with the first set of non-interfered frequency points to generate a second set of non-interfered frequency points;
[0097] Step E, if the second set of interfered frequency points and the second set of non-interfered frequency points remain stable, extracting the frequency point with the maximum amplitude from the second set of interfered frequency points, and generating an interference range based on the frequency point with the maximum amplitude; otherwise, repeating steps C to D.
[0098] It should be noted that the purpose of this step is to find the approximate frequency position of narrowband interference using the FCME algorithm. In this embodiment, the frequency domain signal is first arranged in ascending order according to the spectral line amplitudes, where the spectral line amplitude of the frequency domain signal refers to the amplitude of each frequency component in the frequency domain representation of the signal, which reflects the energy distribution of the signal at different frequencies. In this embodiment, it is considered that the frequency points corresponding to small spectral line amplitudes are not interfered, and the frequency points corresponding to large spectral line amplitudes are interfered, so the frequency points corresponding to the minimum spectral line amplitudes are taken as the first set of non-interfered frequency points , and the remaining frequency points are taken as the first set of interfered frequency points .
[0099] Since the interference detection of the FCME algorithm is realized by continuous iteration, in the first iteration process, the first set of non-interfered frequency points is calculated to obtain a decision threshold .
[0100] Specifically, the calculation process of the decision threshold is as follows:
[0101] ;
[0102] ;
[0103] In the above formula, Indicates the probability of a false alarm. Represents the threshold factor. Represents the first set of undisturbed frequency points The number of elements in It is the amplitude sequence obtained after applying a moving average filter to the spectral line amplitudes. In OFDM, the first Subcarriers.
[0104] It should be noted that, for frequency domain interference, missed detections are more detrimental to the performance of OFDM system links than false alarms. Therefore, in this embodiment, moving average filtering is used to prevent missed detections.
[0105] After obtaining the decision threshold, based on the decision threshold The elements in the first set of interfered frequency points are judged. If the spectral amplitude of an element in the first set of interfered frequency points is less than a threshold, it is considered that it is not interfered with and is set as a judgment element. All judgment elements are removed from the first set of interfered frequency points (i.e., the frequency points judged as not being interfered with are removed), and the remaining frequency points constitute the second set of interfered frequency points. At the same time, all judgment elements are merged with the first set of uninterrupted frequency points to generate the second set of uninterrupted frequency points.
[0106] Specifically, the second set of uninterrupted frequency points and the second set of interfered frequency points The following was generated:
[0107] ;
[0108] ;
[0109] If the second set of uninterrupted frequency points and the second set of interfered frequency points If the second set of interfered frequencies no longer contains any undisturbed frequencies, it is considered to be stable. Then, the frequency with the maximum spectral amplitude is found in the second set of interfered frequencies. The frequency corresponding to each maximum value is regarded as a rough estimate of the narrowband interference frequency, thereby determining the interference range.
[0110] If the second set of uninterrupted frequency points and the second set of interfered frequency points If stability is not maintained (i.e., the second set of interfered frequencies contains undisturbed frequencies), then steps C to D are repeated. A decision threshold is calculated for the second set of undisturbed frequencies. Then, based on the decision threshold, a decision is made on the elements in the second set of interfered frequencies. The decided elements are removed from the second set of interfered frequencies, and the decided elements are merged with the second set of undisturbed frequencies. This process continues... After the nth iteration, the th Uninterrupted frequency set and the Set of Interference Frequency Points If the elements in the array are relatively fixed and no longer change, then it is assumed that all interference has been identified, and the output is the first... Set of Interference Frequency Points This is used to determine the range of interference.
[0111] Furthermore, the interference range is determined as follows: a stable set of interfered frequency points is found using the FCME algorithm, and then the frequency points with the maximum spectral amplitude are found from the set of interfered frequency points. The frequency point corresponding to each maximum value is regarded as a rough estimate of the narrowband interference frequency. Based on the rough estimate frequency, the two peak positions with the largest interference spectral amplitude are selected on both sides, and the interval formed between the two peak positions is set as the interference range.
[0112] ;
[0113] The set of interference frequency points was found in the above formula. The frequency corresponding to the strongest spectral line in the mid-spectral range However, due to spectral leakage, the signal's energy diffuses from its true frequency components to adjacent frequency components. In this embodiment, the estimated frequency... In reality, it's just the subcarrier frequency closest to the actual interference frequency. To investigate the range of the actual frequency, comparisons are needed. left side and the right side The two subcarriers correspond to the magnitudes of their spectral amplitudes. The actual interference frequency must be taken at... Between the side with the larger amplitude in the mid-frequency domain on the left and right, let the true frequency range be [ , If the right side is greater than the left side, then , ,on the contrary, , .
[0114] In one optional embodiment, the DTFT algorithm is used to locate the narrowband interference frequency of the frequency domain signal within the interference range, including the following steps:
[0115] set a frequency resolution;
[0116] calculate a spectrum refinement factor according to the frequency resolution and the interference range;
[0117] perform spectrum refinement on the frequency domain signal using the spectrum refinement factor, and determine an interference frequency according to a result of the spectrum refinement; wherein the spectrum refinement is performed according to the following equation:
[0118]
[0119] In the above equation, denotes the frequency domain signal, denotes the time domain discrete signal, denotes a discrete sampling point, denotes the OFDM symbol length without cyclic prefix, i.e., the number of subcarriers, denotes the imaginary unit, denotes the analog frequency, and its value is equal to , denotes the spectrum refinement factor, denotes the frequency resolution, denotes the minimum value of the interference range, denotes an index variable of the discrete frequency scanning, denotes the sampling rate.
[0120] In an alternative embodiment, calculating the spectrum refinement factor according to the frequency resolution and the interference range comprises:
[0121]
[0122] In the above equation, denotes the spectrum refinement factor, denotes the larger value of the interference range.
[0123] It should be noted that the spectrum refinement factor and the computational complexity are positively correlated when the DTFT algorithm is used to perform spectrum refinement, and therefore, it is essential to find a suitable spectrum refinement factor size to achieve a balance between performance and computational complexity.
[0124] For a narrowband interference, its expression after being discretized and windowed is:
[0125]
[0126] In the above equation, denotes the narrowband interference, denotes the difference between the normalized value of the interference frequency and the closest subcarrier frequency, and its value is [-0.5, 0.5], denotes the narrowband interference signal amplitude, denotes the interference frequency, denotes the discrete sampling point, denotes the sampling period, denotes the initial phase of the interference signal, denotes the interference, denotes the number of subcarriers of the satellite link.
[0127] The spectral analysis of it can get the corresponding spectrum :
[0128] ;
[0129] wherein, the spectral line amplitude of
[0130] ;
[0131] Take the discrete frequency , then the continuous spectrum becomes
[0132] ;
[0133] When , the interference only affects one subcarrier, and has no effect on the data on other subcarriers. The interference can be removed by directly setting it to zero. When , the interference leaks, and the leaked energy needs to be considered. At this time, the maximum leakage energy is at the subcarrier , and the energy concentration rate is denoted by , the total energy of the interference is , and the total energy of the interference is denoted as:
[0134] ;
[0135] ;
[0136] Take the number of subcarriers of the satellite link , the energy concentration rate and the deviation from the integer multiple of the subcarrier size are plotted as shown in Figure 3 . The energy concentration rate is directly related to the deviation from the integer multiple of the subcarrier size . When , at this time, . This means that the leaked energy is less than 1%. In order to achieve the frequency estimation accuracy of , the spectral refinement multiple needs to be more than 10.
[0137] Therefore, in this embodiment, a frequency resolution is determined, where the frequency resolution is the minimum interval that can distinguish two different frequency signals. The spectral refinement factor is determined jointly by the frequency resolution and the interference range.
[0138] This embodiment uses the number of complex multiplications as a reference to compare the spectral refinement complexity of the FFT-DTFT algorithm used in this embodiment with that of existing technologies such as Chirp-Z Transform (CZT, linear frequency modulated Z-transform) and Zoom-FFT. The comparison results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the complexity of Zoom-FFT is higher than that of DTFT at any refinement factor. Comparing the complexity of CZT and DTFT spectrum refinement algorithms reveals that DTFT has lower complexity when the refinement factor is less than 25. The analysis above showed that when the refinement factor reaches 10, the estimated frequency accuracy ensures that the energy leakage after FFT transformation following interference alignment is less than 1%. In power- and performance-constrained scenarios like satellites, DTFT is chosen to refine the spectrum by a factor of 10 to accurately estimate the specific value of the interference frequency.
[0139] In one optional embodiment, spectral shifting of the frequency domain signal based on the frequency offset value includes: ;
[0140] ;
[0141] In the above formula, This represents the difference between the estimated interference frequency and the normalized value of its nearest subcarrier frequency. Indicates the frequency of relocation. Indicates the received signal After segmentation, the first segment signal, Indicates to The signal after spectrum shifting.
[0142] It should be noted that by calculating the interference frequency, the frequency offset value of the interference frequency relative to the subcarrier is obtained. This frequency offset value is used to perform spectrum shifting on the frequency domain signal in the segmented state, so as to shift the narrowband interference signal to the frequency point where the subcarrier is located to eliminate spectrum leakage.
[0143] In one alternative embodiment, after obtaining the spectrum-shifted signal, the process further includes:
[0144] Residual spectral leakage is detected in the spectrum-shifted signal to obtain a residual spectral leakage set;
[0145] Calculate the first The power of the undisturbed frequency points in the set of undisturbed frequency points; wherein, the first The set of unaffected frequency points was determined using the FCME algorithm;
[0146] The residual spectral leakage set is scaled and suppressed using the power.
[0147] like Figures 1-2 As shown, when performing FFT on the spectrum-shifted signal after spectrum shifting, due to the limited accuracy of interference frequency estimation, there may still be some spectrum leakage near the target-aligned subcarrier. Therefore, the FCME algorithm is used to detect whether there is spectrum leakage in the two subcarriers near the target-aligned subcarrier, and the frequency points with spectrum leakage are put into the residual spectrum leakage set.
