[0056] This invention provides a method for rapidly generating Earth's free oscillation waveforms for geocentric orbit space gravitational wave detection, comprising:
[0057] Step 101: Obtain the Earth's gravitational field parameters and the instantaneous inter-satellite distance, and use the Koula linear perturbation method to construct an analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration based on the Earth's gravitational field parameters and the instantaneous inter-satellite distance.
[0058] Earth's gravitational field parameters: physical quantities describing the spatial distribution of Earth's gravitational field, including the product of the gravitational constant and the Earth's mass (GM), the Earth's average radius (R), and the normalized spherical harmonic coefficients (GMC). , And the order of spherical harmonic expansion, truncation order, etc.
[0059] Inter-satellite instantaneous distance: the straight-line distance between any two satellites in a probe constellation at the same moment, mathematically expressed as the magnitude of the difference in the position vectors of the two satellites ( ), This is the position vector of another satellite, used to describe its position in space. This is the position vector of one of the satellites, used to describe its position in space.
[0060] Koula linear perturbation method: A classic method in orbital mechanics used to convert gravitational field models into orbital element functions. It establishes the relationship between gravitational field parameters and satellite orbital parameters (semi-major axis, inclination, etc.) by linearizing the gravitational potential expansion.
[0061] Detector constellation equilateral triangle configuration: A space detection system consisting of three satellites arranged in an equilateral triangle in orbit, with equal distances between them, which is a typical configuration for space gravitational wave detection.
[0062] Reference circular orbit assumption: An ideal orbital condition set to simplify orbital calculations, assuming that the satellite orbital eccentricity is 0, that is, the satellite moves along a circular orbit with the Earth's center as the center.
[0063] Earth's gravitational field spherical harmonic function model: A model that describes the spatial distribution of Earth's gravitational potential using the expansion of spherical harmonic functions. By superimposing spherical harmonic terms of different orders and degrees, it accurately characterizes the non-spherical features of Earth's gravitational field.
[0064] Satellite orbital elements: Parameters describing the shape of a satellite's orbit, its spatial orientation, and its position in orbit, including semi-major axis, eccentricity, inclination, longitude of the ascending node, argument of perigee, and mean perigee.
[0065] Inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model: the second derivative of inter-satellite distance with respect to time expressed mathematically ( The relationship model between the satellite and related parameters (gravitational field parameters, orbital parameters, etc.) can be used to directly calculate the inter-satellite ranging acceleration by substituting the parameters.
[0066] It should be noted that after obtaining the Earth's gravitational field parameters and the instantaneous inter-satellite distances, and combining the equilateral triangle configuration of the detector constellation (the three satellites are spatially distributed in an equilateral triangle with equal inter-satellite distances) and the assumption of a reference circular orbit (the satellites operate along a circular orbit with zero eccentricity), the spherical harmonic function model of the Earth's gravitational field is first mapped to a function of the satellite orbital elements through coordinate transformation. Then, the Koula linear perturbation method is used to linearize the function model, and the geometric relationship of the instantaneous inter-satellite distances is simultaneously incorporated. Finally, an analytical model of the inter-satellite ranging acceleration between the three satellites is constructed.
[0067] Specifically, step 101 may include the following sub-steps:
[0068] S11. Construct a spherical coordinate spherical harmonic function model based on the Earth's gravitational field parameters;
[0069] S12. The Koula linear perturbation method is used to convert the spherical coordinate spherical harmonic function model into a satellite orbital element model;
[0070] S13. Simplify the satellite orbital element model and determine the simplified Earth gravitational field model under the reference circular orbit;
[0071] S14. Calculate the satellite's gravitational potential based on a simplified Earth gravitational field model under a reference circular orbit;
[0072] S15. Based on the satellite's gravitational potential and the instantaneous inter-satellite distance, construct an analytical model for inter-satellite ranging acceleration.
[0073] It should be noted that, based on the Earth's gravitational field parameters, a spherical coordinate spherical harmonic function model (i.e., the spherical coordinate spherical harmonic expansion of the Earth's gravitational field) is constructed in the Conventional Earth Reference System. Then, using the Koula linear perturbation method, this spherical coordinate spherical harmonic function model is converted into a satellite orbital element model with satellite orbital elements as variables. Combining this with the equilateral triangle configuration of the probe constellation, the actual satellite motion is approximated as the motion of a reference circular orbit generated by the Earth's central gravitational potential, simplifying the satellite orbital element model and determining the simplified Earth gravitational field model under the reference circular orbit. Based on this, the satellite gravitational potential is calculated using this simplified model. Finally, considering the instantaneous inter-satellite distance, its second derivative with respect to time is taken, and through coordinate transformation and differentiation, an analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration is constructed.
[0074] Among them, the Conventional Earth Reference System is an internationally recognized Earth reference frame used to unify the coordinate system for describing the Earth and its surrounding space, and to provide a reference coordinate system for gravitational field models.
[0075] Spherical coordinate spherical harmonic expansion: In a spherical coordinate system (radius, colatitude, longitude), the mathematical form of the Earth's gravitational field is represented by spherical harmonic functions (including Legendre functions and trigonometric function terms), which can accurately characterize the spatial distribution of the gravitational field.
[0076] Satellite orbital elements model: A model of Earth's gravitational field that uses satellite orbital elements (semi-major axis, eccentricity, inclination, etc.) as variables, and can directly reflect the influence of the gravitational field on satellite orbital motion.
[0077] Satellite gravitational potential: The gravitational potential energy generated by the Earth's gravitational field at the satellite's location is a physical quantity that describes the strength of the gravitational field's effect on the satellite. It is determined by both the Earth's gravitational field model and the satellite's location.
[0078] Specifically, the Earth's gravitational field model is represented in spherical coordinates in the Common Earth Reference System.

[0126] Furthermore, after introducing a time-varying term, the analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration (i.e., the modified analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration) is as follows:

[0128] in, and The same as DA and CA in the case of Earth's gravitational field.

[0145] It is worth mentioning that the Earth's gravitational field model and satellite orbital element parameters in this embodiment can be freely selected, thus making it applicable to satellite orbital element representations for all Earth's gravitational fields.
[0146] For example, the parameters of the Earth's free oscillation mode are calculated using the open-source MINOS program: considering an earthquake of magnitude 6.0 that occurs 30 days after the initial time, the period of the Earth's free oscillation mode excited by the earthquake is obtained. Attenuation factor and the coefficient of change of Earth's gravitational potential and Earthquake-induced free oscillation mode period Attenuation factor The specific parameters are shown in Table 2:
[0147] Table 2 , parameters
[0148]
[0149] In this embodiment, based on the Earth's free oscillation model, the time-varying perturbation of the Earth's gravitational field coefficient after the earthquake-induced Earth's free oscillation is obtained; after introducing the time-varying term of the Earth's gravitational field coefficient, the time-varying correction of the inter-satellite ranging acceleration is obtained. Based on the analytical expression of the inter-satellite ranging acceleration and the time-varying correction, the analytical model of the inter-satellite ranging acceleration is obtained.
[0150] Step 103: When the satellite orbit parameters, simulation time series and Earth free oscillation mode parameters are received, the modified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model is used to calculate the ranging acceleration signals between multiple satellites based on the satellite orbit parameters, simulation time series and Earth free oscillation mode parameters.
[0151] Satellite orbital parameters: Key parameters describing the orbital characteristics of a satellite around the Earth, including the semi-major axis, orbital inclination, orbital frequency, and initial phase, used to determine the satellite's spatial position and motion. See also... Figure 2 The satellite orbital parameters of satellite 1 (SC1, Spacecraft 1), satellite 2 (SC2, Spacecraft 2), and satellite 3 (SC3, Spacecraft 3) differ in that they have different phase differences, with values of 0°, 120°, and -120° respectively. The other parameters are the same.
[0152] Simulation time series: A set of time points arranged at fixed time intervals, covering the complete time range from before the earthquake to the end of the observation, used to characterize the dynamic changes of physical quantities over time.
[0153] Earth Free Oscillation Mode Parameters: Core parameters characterizing the Earth's free oscillation characteristics, including free oscillation harmonics, oscillation frequency, damping ratio, decay time function, and disturbance amplitude, used to quantify time-varying disturbances in the Earth's gravitational field caused by earthquakes.
[0154] Inter-satellite ranging acceleration signals: These are the second derivative signals of the distance between two satellites with respect to time. They directly reflect the acceleration characteristics of the relative motion between satellites and are core data for satellite ranging accuracy analysis and gravitational field inversion. Ranging acceleration signals between multiple satellites include those between satellite 1 and satellite 2, satellite 2 and satellite 3, and satellite 1 and satellite 3.
[0155] It should be noted that when satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series, and Earth free oscillation mode parameters are received, a modified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model is used. The orbital semi-major axis and orbital inclination from the satellite orbital parameters are substituted into the orbital-related function terms of the model. The simulation time series corresponds to the time variables in the model to characterize the dynamic change process. The Earth free oscillation mode parameters (including harmonics, oscillation frequency, attenuation factor, etc.) empower the time-varying perturbation terms of the model. Through the coupling calculation of the original basic terms in the model, the permanent changes after the earthquake, and the attenuated oscillation part, the ranging acceleration signal between multiple satellites containing the influence of Earth free oscillation is finally obtained. This signal can be directly used for subsequent satellite ranging accuracy calibration or analysis of the time-varying characteristics of the Earth's gravitational field.
[0156] It is worth mentioning that the analytical model in this embodiment assumes that the Earth rotates at a constant speed. The satellite orbital parameters selected in the subsequent steps are shown in Table 3. The 12th order EGM2008 is used as the Earth's gravitational field model, and the initial Greenwich mean sidereal time is set to the actual initial Greenwich mean sidereal time at the initial time UTC 00:00:000 on June 6, 2004.
[0157] Table 3 Satellite orbital parameters
[0158]
[0159] Furthermore, step 103 may include the following sub-steps:
[0160] S31. Simplify the order of the modified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model and determine the order-simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model.
[0161] S32. The simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model is used to solve for satellite acceleration based on satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series and Earth free oscillation mode parameters, and outputs ranging acceleration signals between multiple satellites.
[0162] It should be noted that the order of the modified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model was simplified by removing high-order spherical harmonic terms and low-contribution free oscillation harmonic components that have little impact on the calculation results. Using this simplified model, combined with satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series, and Earth free oscillation mode parameters received uniformly through a standardized parameter input / output interface, multiple satellite ranging acceleration signals were output. These signals were processed using the Time Delay Interferometry (TDI) method and calculated under the same parameter settings. The resulting Earth oscillation signal was compared and verified with the simulated Earth oscillation signal obtained through a high-precision numerical orbit simulation program. Deviation analysis confirmed the rationality of the order simplification, ensuring that core accuracy was preserved while simplifying computational complexity, providing efficient and reliable data support for subsequent applications.
[0163] Step 104: Select the target ranging acceleration signal among the ranging acceleration signals of each satellite, and use the time delay interferometry method to extract the earth oscillation signal from the target ranging acceleration signal, and output the target earth oscillation signal.
[0164] It should be noted that, by combining satellite orbital parameters (high orbit), simulation time series, and Earth free oscillation mode parameters, the analytical model order is simplified and processed by TDI. Then, Fourier transform and high-pass filter are used to generate a fast waveform of Earth free oscillation expressed as inter-satellite ranging acceleration. The degree of conformity between the traditional numerical simulation waveform and the analytical model waveform is compared, and the Earth free oscillation mode is extracted.
[0165] Among them, TDI, or time-delayed interferometry, is used to construct a virtual equal-arm length interference, which removes laser phase noise while retaining the desired signal. The TDI empty channel is insensitive to gravitational wave response and can effectively separate the Earth's free oscillation signal (i.e., the Earth oscillation signal) from the signal.
[0166] Specifically, step 104 may include the following sub-steps:
[0167] S41. Delay the target ranging acceleration signal optically and output the target ranging acceleration signal after optical delay.
[0168] S42. Expand the target ranging acceleration signal after optical path delay and determine the expanded target ranging acceleration signal.
[0169] S43. The laser phase noise in the deployed target ranging acceleration signal is sorted and matched to determine the initial Earth oscillation signal;
[0170] S44. Perform a Fourier transform on the initial Earth oscillation signal and filter it using a high-pass filter to output the target Earth oscillation signal.
[0171] Optical path delay: Simulates the time delay process of laser propagation in the inter-satellite interferometer arm. The delay parameters are set according to the length of the interferometer arm, the speed of light and the relative motion of the satellites to make the signal more closely match the actual propagation physical process.
[0172] The unfolded target ranging acceleration signal: The signal after optical path delay is decomposed into multiple components (such as earth oscillation term, noise term, etc.) according to the time dimension and physical causes, which facilitates subsequent targeted processing.
[0173] Laser phase noise: Random fluctuations in the phase of the laser itself, caused by the characteristics of the laser source or the influence of the propagation environment, can mask the true characteristics of the Earth's oscillation signal.
[0174] Initial Earth Oscillation Signal: After laser phase noise sorting, pairing and elimination, the signal that initially retains the core information of Earth's free oscillation may still contain a small amount of residual interference.
[0175] It should be noted that optical path delay is applied to the target ranging acceleration signal. Based on the propagation path length of the laser in the interferometer arm between satellites and the speed of light, a matching delay parameter is set to simulate the time delay effect of the actual laser propagation, and the target ranging acceleration signal after optical path delay is output. Further, the target ranging acceleration signal after optical path delay is expanded according to time sequence and signal components, decomposing the Earth oscillation contribution, laser phase noise, and other environmental interference components to determine the expanded target ranging acceleration signal. For each expanded signal component, it is sorted and paired according to the propagation delay law of laser phase noise and signal correlation characteristics. Most of the laser phase noise interference is eliminated through noise cancellation or separation algorithms to determine the initial Earth oscillation signal that initially retains the core information of Earth oscillation. Fourier transform is performed on the initial Earth oscillation signal to convert the time-domain signal into a frequency-domain signal to highlight the characteristic frequency components corresponding to the Earth's free oscillation. Then, a high-pass filter with a preset reasonable cutoff frequency is used to filter out low-frequency background noise and residual interference signals, finally outputting a target Earth oscillation signal with high purity that accurately reflects the time-varying characteristics of the Earth's free oscillation.
[0176] Specifically, regarding the principle of time delay interference processing methods, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in a Michelson interferometer with unequal arm lengths, the signal detected at the photodetector can be expressed as:
[0177] ;
[0178] ;
[0179] in, The output signal of the first photoelectric detector (PD) varies with time t and includes gravitational wave phase shift, laser phase noise, and secondary noise. The output signal of the second photodetector varies with time t and includes gravitational wave phase shift, laser phase noise, and secondary noise. = 2L1 / c, = 2L2 / c represents the time it takes for the laser to travel back and forth between the two arms, where L1 is the length of the first arm of the laser interferometer and L2 is the length of the second arm. , These represent the phase shifts caused by gravitational waves in the first and second arms, respectively. This represents the laser phase noise, which varies with time t. , These represent the secondary noise introduced during the readings of the first and second photodetectors, respectively. Subtracting the two equations eliminates the noise in either equation. :
[0180] ;
[0181] right and Delaying for T2 and T1 respectively, we can obtain:
[0182] ;
[0183] ;
[0184] Subtracting the two equations above will eliminate the error. item:
[0185] ;
[0186] Subtracting again, constructing a combination of the form x(t), we finally obtain a signal that contains only the desired signal and other noise, with all laser phase noise removed:
[0187] ;
[0188] This is the output signal after time delay processing.
[0189] Furthermore, if we choose equal arm lengths, then the time it takes for the laser to travel back and forth through the two arms is equal, denoted as T. Then we have:
[0190] ;
[0191] In the formula, the two terms in the first bracket represent the optical path represented by the blue solid line, and the two terms in the second bracket represent the optical path represented by the black solid line. This is equivalent to constructing a virtual Michelson interferometer with equal arm length to naturally cancel out laser phase noise.
[0192] Two operators, “:” and “;”, are specifically defined to address laser phase noise. For example, the specific explanation is as follows:
[0193] ;
[0194] in, This is the signal after the laser phase noise has been delayed by the j-th fixed-length interferometer arm (the operator ":" indicates a constant delay on the variable it acts on, the specific delay amount is equal to the arm length represented by the number after the operator divided by the speed of light). This is the fixed length of the j-th laser interferometer arm (such as the inherent length of a certain arm of a laser interferometer). The speed of light; Let be the propagation time delay of the laser in the j-th fixed-length interferometer arm; t is a time variable describing the temporal dynamics of the laser phase noise. Let be the total propagation time delay of the laser in the k-th and j-th fixed-length interferometer arms; Let be the time-varying length of the j-th laser interferometer arm (e.g., the length changes with time t due to gravitational waves, satellite orbit changes, etc.). The length of the k-th laser interferometer arm varies with time t (e.g., due to gravitational waves, changes in satellite orbit, etc.). Let be the time-varying propagation time delay of the laser in the j-th time-varying length interferometer arm; This is the signal after the laser phase noise has been delayed by the total time of the k-th and j-th fixed-length interferometer arms; This is the signal after the laser phase noise has been delayed by the time-varying length of the j-th interferometer arm (the operator ";" indicates a delay of the variable it acts on, which varies with time; the delay is equal to the length of the laser link at that moment, represented by the number after the operator, divided by the speed of light). The signal is the laser phase noise after the total time-varying time delay of the k-th and j-th time-varying length interferometer arms.
[0195] The derivation of the TDI formula uses the delay operator D, which is defined as follows:
[0196] ;
[0197] or
[0198] ;
[0199] in, This is the signal after the laser phase noise has been delayed by the i-th interferometer arm; For the i-th interferometer arm, there is a delay operator used to represent the time delay operation of laser propagation in the i-th interferometer arm; For the j-th interferometer arm, there is a delay operator used to represent the time delay operation of laser propagation in the j-th interferometer arm; This is a composite operation that first applies a time delay operation to the signal in the i-th interferometer arm and then applies a time delay operation to the j-th interferometer arm, used to describe the total time delay composite operation of the laser propagating continuously in the i-th and j-th interferometer arms; This is the signal after the laser phase noise has been delayed by the total time of the i-th and j-th interferometer arms; To address laser phase noise The i-th interferometer arm delay operator is used to... Apply a time delay operation to the i-th interferometer arm.
[0200] The first step in subtracting laser phase noise using TDI (Through-Diverter) interferometry requires constructing intermediate variables using scientific interferometry signals, verification quality interferometry signals, and reference interferometry signals. :
[0201] ;
[0202] ;
[0203] in, , This is an intermediate variable constructed in the TDI process, used for subsequent calculations to subtract laser phase noise, and serves as a transitional quantity in signal combination processing; , An intermediate processing signal, composed of scientific signals, reference signals, etc., is used to construct... The basis of a series of variables, used to integrate information from multi-channel signals; For scientific interference signals (such as scientific channel interference signals for gravitational wave detection), it includes target physical signals (such as gravitational waves) and noise interference; To test the mass interference signal (interference signal related to the motion of the test mass), it is used to assist signal processing to extract effective physical information; , , , It serves as a reference interference signal (or auxiliary interference signal) to provide a calibration or reference standard for signal processing; , , , It is a time delay quantity, reflecting the time shift of the laser propagation or signal in the interferometer arm, which varies with time t (e.g., affected by gravitational waves or equipment dynamics). , These are delay operators, representing the application of time delay operations to the second and third interferometer arms of the signal, respectively, used to characterize the time delay effect of the signal passing through the corresponding interferometer arm.
[0204] Furthermore, Optical platform displacement noise can be deducted ,and This further eliminates half of the laser phase noise, namely all laser phase noise with “′”, namely p1′, p2′, p3′ and all their delay terms.
[0205] Based on the equilateral triangle configuration of the detector constellation, the inter-satellite distances are equal, so the time it takes for the laser to travel back and forth between the two arms is equal.
[0206] To avoid excessively long formulas and to emphasize the key aspect of laser phase noise, this invention temporarily ignores secondary noise and clock noise in the derivation. It can be approximated as:
[0207] ;
[0208] ;
[0209] At this point, the formula only includes laser phase noise and gravitational wave signals; various combinations of TDI are then used. A linear combination of the laser's phase noise and its delay term is used to construct a virtual equal-arm-length interference to eliminate laser phase noise while preserving the desired signal. In the formula, , The phase shift signal caused by gravitational waves corresponds to the modulation of the laser phase by gravitational waves in different interference channels; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA2 after being delayed by three interferometer arms; The laser phase noise of MOSA1; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA3 after being delayed by the 2' interferometer arm. MOSA stands for Movable Optical Sub-Assembly.
[0210] Based on the above, such as Figures 4-5 This invention utilizes the ranging acceleration signals between satellite 1 and satellite 2, between satellite 2 and satellite 3, and between satellite 1 and satellite 3 output from the modified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model, combined with the TDI-Michelson combination formula, and uses TDI-X, TDI-Y, and TDI-Z to represent the results, as follows:
[0211] ;
[0212] in, The ranging acceleration signal between satellite 1 and satellite 3 represents the output signal of the TDI-X combination. It is used to extract the effective signal (such as time-varying gravitational field or Earth free oscillation signal) related to the X direction in the ranging acceleration between satellites after eliminating laser phase noise. The ranging acceleration signal between satellite 1 and satellite 2 represents the output signal of the TDI-Y combination, which is used to extract the effective signal related to the Y direction in the ranging acceleration between satellites after eliminating laser phase noise. The ranging acceleration signal between satellite 2 and satellite 3 represents the output signal of the TDI-Z combination, which is used to extract the effective signal related to the Z direction in the ranging acceleration between satellites after eliminating laser phase noise; For MOSA 2' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by the 3', 2', 2' interferometer arms; The signal is the intermediate variable at MOSA1 after being delayed by the interferometer arms 2 and 2'. The signal is the intermediate variable at MOSA3 after being delayed by the 2' interferometer arm; For MOSA 1' Intermediate variable; The signal at MOSA3 is delayed by the 2', 3', and 3 interferometer arms; The signal is the intermediate variable at MOSA1 after being delayed by the 3' and 3' interferometer arms; For MOSA 2' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by three interferometer arms; This is an intermediate variable at MOSA1; For MOSA 3' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by the 1', 3', and 3' interferometer arms; The signal of the intermediate variable at MOSA2 after being delayed by the 3' and 3' interferometer arms; The signal is the intermediate variable at MOSA1 after being delayed by the 3' interferometer arm; For MOSA 2' Intermediate variable; The signal at MOSA1 is delayed by the 3', 1', and 1 interferometer arms; For MOSA 2' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by interferometer arms 1' and 1'; For MOSA 3' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by one interferometer arm; This is an intermediate variable at MOSA2; For MOSA 1' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by the 2', 1', and 1' interferometer arms; The signal of the intermediate variable at MOSA3 after being delayed by the interferometer arms 1 and 1'; The signal is the intermediate variable at MOSA2 after being delayed by the 1' interferometer arm; For MOSA 3' Intermediate variable; The signal at MOSA2 is delayed by interferometer arms 1', 2', and 2; For MOSA 3' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by the 2' and 2' interferometer arms; For MOSA 1' The signal after the intermediate variable is delayed by two interferometer arms; This is an intermediate variable at MOSA3.
[0213] Furthermore, among the ranging acceleration signals between satellite 1 and satellite 2, between satellite 2 and satellite 3, and between satellite 1 and satellite 3, any one signal is selected as the target ranging acceleration signal. This invention uses... For example:
[0214] ;
[0215] in The content within the first set of parentheses in the corresponding expression is The delay combination of laser number 1 with respect to the other lasers, and the content in the second parenthesis is the delay combination of laser number 1 with respect to the other lasers.
[0216] by For example:
[0217] ;
[0218] This expression represents: For L3, L2 and The optical path is delayed. Among other things, For MOSA 2' The phase shift signal caused by the gravitational wave measured at the location; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA1 after being delayed by the 3' interferometer arm; This is the laser phase noise signal of MOSA2; This is the signal after the above three signals are combined and delayed by the 3', 2', and 2' interferometer arms.
[0219] by For example:
[0220] ;
[0221] This expression represents: For L2 and The optical path is delayed. Among other things, The phase shift signal caused by the gravitational wave measured at MOSA1; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA2 after being delayed by three interferometer arms; This is the laser phase noise signal of MOSA1; This is the signal after the above three signals are combined and delayed by the 2' and 2' interferometer arms;
[0222] by For example:
[0223] ;
[0224] This expression represents: right The optical path is delayed. Among other things, The phase shift signal caused by the gravitational wave measured at MOSA3; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA1 after being delayed by two interferometer arms; This is the laser phase noise signal of MOSA3; The signal is the result of the combination of the three signals mentioned above, after being delayed by the 2' interferometer arm.
[0225] right Expanding, we get:
[0226] ;
[0227] Further refine the pairings:
[0228] ;
[0229] in, The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA1 after being delayed by interferometer arms 3', 3', 2', 2'. The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA3 after being delayed by the 2', 3', and 3 interferometer arms; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA1 after being delayed by the 3' and 3' interferometer arms; The signal is the laser phase noise of MOSA2 after being delayed by three interferometer arms; This is the laser phase noise signal of MOSA1; The signal is the phase shift caused by the gravitational wave at MOSA2, and is delayed by the interferometer arms 3, 2, and 2'. The signal is the phase shift caused by the gravitational wave at MOSA1, after being delayed by the interferometer arms 2 and 2'. The signal is the phase shift caused by the gravitational wave at MOSA3, and is delayed by the 2' interferometer arm.
[0230] The above equation shows that laser phase noise almost always occurs in pairs, and except for the two terms within the first set of parentheses, the others can cancel each other out. Therefore, we can obtain... The final expression is:
[0231] ;
[0232] for and Similarly, the combined expression ultimately retains only the gravitational wave signal and has no laser phase noise term.
[0233] Furthermore, for the TDI-X combination, because:
[0234] ;
[0235] in, To delay the gravitational wave response signal by a time factor of T; This is the gravitational wave response signal; is the time shift factor; i is the imaginary unit; f is the frequency; T is the time delay; F denotes the Fourier transform of the function. For a Michelson interferometer with equal arm lengths, assuming all delay times are equal, the Fourier transform is:
[0236] ;
[0237] in, , , It is a time shift factor; This is the delay time; , This is the gravitational wave response signal; The difference is the gravitational wave response signal; This is the initial Earth oscillation signal after Fourier transform.
[0238] Based on the above, the transfer function of TDI-X is:
[0239] ;
[0240] in, For TDI response transfer function; The output is an interference signal with unequal arm lengths in the frequency domain.
[0241] The same applies to TDI-Y and TDI-Z. Therefore, after TDI processing, the signal contains only the desired signal and other noise, while laser phase noise is completely eliminated.
[0242] Finally, a high-pass filter is used to process the data obtained from numerical simulation and analytical model respectively, and the Earth free oscillation waveform expressed in terms of inter-satellite ranging acceleration is obtained, that is, the target Earth oscillation signal.
[0243] It is worth mentioning that, since the filter will truncate the data before and after it when it is working, the earthquake time is set to 5000 seconds after the earliest time (177300s) that the filter can tolerate, and the data duration is set to allow high-pass filtering to produce a data segment of 5000 seconds before the earthquake plus 1 day after the earthquake.
[0244] In this embodiment, data processing is performed using time-delay interferometry (TDI) by combining satellite orbital parameters, simulated time series, and Earth free oscillation mode parameters, and a high-pass filter is used to generate a fast waveform of Earth free oscillation expressed as inter-satellite ranging acceleration.
[0245] For comparison of technical effectiveness, existing technologies can be used as a reference. Currently, in data processing and noise assessment for space gravitational wave missions, evaluating the interference of the Earth-Moon system's gravitational field on inter-satellite ranging acceleration relies entirely on high-precision numerical calculations. While these methods are highly accurate, the calculation process is complex and time-consuming, making it difficult to meet the needs of rapid noise assessment and elimination in missions, especially when dealing with global, multimodal, time-varying signals such as earthquake-induced free oscillations of the Earth.
[0246] To address the above problems, this invention proposes a method for rapidly generating Earth's free oscillation waveforms for geocentric orbit space gravitational wave detection, such as... Figure 6 As shown, based on the equilateral triangle configuration of the detector constellation and the assumption of a reference circular orbit, the spherical harmonic function model of the Earth's gravitational field is expressed as a function model of the satellite orbital elements through coordinate transformation, resulting in the ranging acceleration formula between the three satellites. Based on the Earth's free oscillation model, the time-varying perturbation of the Earth's gravitational field and the time-varying correction of the inter-satellite ranging acceleration formula are solved, resulting in an analytical correction model for the inter-satellite ranging acceleration formula. Combining satellite orbital parameters and simulation time series, and based on the principles of eliminating laser frequency noise through time-delay interferometry and the insensitivity of TDI empty channel combinations to gravitational wave response, the ranging acceleration data between the three satellites are combined and processed to quickly generate an Earth free oscillation waveform based on the analytical model. This waveform can be directly used for scientific data processing. The matching degree between the rapidly generated waveform and the numerical simulation results can be analyzed. In addition, it can also be used to extract Earth free oscillation modes.
[0247] In summary, this invention establishes a unified analytical model of the Earth's gravitational field, enabling the rapid generation of the Earth's free oscillation waveform represented by inter-satellite ranging acceleration. This effectively overcomes the problems of low computational efficiency and difficulty in evaluating and eliminating noise in traditional numerical simulation methods.
[0248] Furthermore, this invention significantly shortens the generation time of the Earth's free oscillation waveform by transforming the complex numerical simulation problem into analytical calculation, thereby improving computational efficiency. Through the above process, this method rapidly generates the Earth's free oscillation waveform while ensuring consistency with high-precision numerical simulation results, significantly reducing the demand for computational resources. Therefore, it can be widely applied to rapid noise assessment and real-time data processing in space gravitational wave detection missions.
[0249] In this embodiment of the invention, a method for rapidly generating Earth free oscillation waveforms for geocentric orbit space gravitational wave detection is provided. The method acquires Earth's gravitational field parameters and instantaneous inter-satellite distances, and uses the Koula linear perturbation method to construct an analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration based on these parameters. The analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration is then modified based on the Earth free oscillation model to determine the modified analytical model. When satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series, and Earth free oscillation mode parameters are received, the modified analytical model of inter-satellite ranging acceleration is used to generate the waveforms based on these parameters. The invention calculates ranging acceleration signals between multiple satellites; selects a target ranging acceleration signal from among the ranging acceleration signals of each satellite, and extracts the Earth oscillation signal from the target ranging acceleration signal using the time-delay interferometry method, outputting the target Earth oscillation signal; based on the above scheme, this invention breaks through the limitations of traditional reliance on high-precision numerical calculations by innovatively combining the Koula linear perturbation method with analytical model construction, transforming the complex problem of generating Earth free oscillation waveforms into efficient analytical calculations. Combined with targeted time-varying perturbation correction and signal purification using the time-delay interferometry method, the calculation process is greatly simplified, the waveform generation time is shortened, and the calculation efficiency of Earth free oscillation waveforms is significantly improved.
[0250] The conformity between the waveforms obtained from traditional numerical calculations and those from analytical models is compared to verify the correctness and computational accuracy of the analytical model. Furthermore, the obtained waveforms are used to extract the Earth's free oscillation modes, enabling the rapid generation of Earth's free oscillation waveforms based on the analytical model. Specifically, refer to... Figure 7 , Figure 7 To verify the simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model of the present invention, the following steps are also included:
[0251] Step 701: Obtain numerical simulation data, and use Bayesian analysis and MCMC parameter estimation methods to extract estimated values of Earth's free oscillation parameters from the numerical simulation data;
[0252] Step 702: Using the simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model, the simulated ranging acceleration signal is output based on the estimated values of satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series, and Earth free oscillation parameters.
[0253] Step 703: Use the time-delay interferometry method to extract the Earth oscillation signal from the simulated ranging acceleration signal and determine the simulated Earth oscillation signal;
[0254] Step 704: Perform Fourier transform on the simulated Earth oscillation signal and filter it using a high-pass filter to determine the target simulated Earth oscillation signal;
[0255] Step 705: Using a matching factor to measure the degree of curve conformity, the simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model is verified based on the target simulated Earth oscillation signal and the target Earth oscillation signal, and the verification results are output.
[0256] It should be noted that after acquiring the numerical simulation data, Bayesian analysis and MCMC parameter estimation methods are used. By modeling and iteratively sampling the probability distribution of the Earth's free oscillation characteristics in the numerical simulation data, estimated values of the Earth's free oscillation parameters are extracted from the numerical simulation data. First, the gravitational field changes caused by dynamic free oscillations are injected into the static Earth model. Based on this, numerical simulation is performed to output the orbital changes of the satellite affected by this effect. Then, the time-delay interferometry is used to process the simulated ranging acceleration signal to extract the simulated Earth oscillation signal containing only Earth free oscillation information. Next, the simulated Earth oscillation signal is Fourier transformed to convert it into a frequency domain signal. After filtering out low-frequency interference through a high-pass filter, the target simulated Earth oscillation signal is determined. Finally, a matching factor mechanism is used to measure the degree of curve conformity, calculating the matching degree between the target simulated Earth oscillation signal and the target Earth oscillation signal in amplitude, frequency, and phase. This verifies the accuracy and reliability of the analytical model, and outputs the verification results including the model error range and parameter confidence levels.
[0257] Bayesian analysis, in particular, is a statistical analysis method that uses Bayes' theorem, combined with prior knowledge and observational data, to infer the posterior probability distribution of parameters and is used to quantify the uncertainty of Earth's free oscillation parameters.
[0258] MCMC parameter estimation (Markov Chain Monte Carlo): A numerical method that approximates the posterior probability distribution of parameters by constructing a Markov chain and performing Monte Carlo sampling. It is used to extract estimated values and confidence intervals of Earth's free oscillation parameters from numerical simulation data.
[0259] Numerical simulation data: Virtual data generated by numerical simulation software to simulate the Earth's free oscillations and satellite ranging acceleration response, used for model training and validation.
[0260] Simulated ranging acceleration signal: The simulated inter-satellite ranging acceleration signal is calculated by substituting satellite orbital parameters, simulation time series and estimated values of Earth's free oscillation parameters into the simplified analytical model, and is used for simulation analysis.
[0261] Matching factor: A quantitative indicator that measures the degree of similarity between the simulated Earth oscillation signal and the target Earth oscillation signal in terms of amplitude, frequency, phase, etc. The closer the value is to 1, the higher the degree of similarity.
[0262] Validation results: The conclusions on the accuracy and reliability of the model are evaluated through indicators such as matching factors, including information such as model error range and parameter confidence, which are used to determine whether the model meets the application requirements.
[0263] It is worth mentioning that the matching factor mechanism introduced in this invention measures the degree of curve conformity. By comparing and analyzing the consistency of the waveform characteristics of the numerical simulation results with those of the analytical model's Earth's free oscillation waveform, the correctness and computational accuracy of the analytical model are verified. This mechanism is specifically as follows:
[0264] ;
[0265] Where, x num and x ana Representing numerical and analytical time-domain sequences respectively. The amplitude of the simulated Earth oscillation signal at the i-th sampling point (generated by the simplified analytical model, which includes the simulated response of the Earth's free oscillation). Let be the amplitude of the observed Earth oscillation signal at the i-th sampling point (such as a reference signal obtained from actual satellite observation or high-precision numerical simulation); M is the matching factor, used to quantify the degree of fit between the simulated Earth oscillation signal and the target Earth oscillation signal in dimensions such as amplitude, frequency, and phase. The value of M is between 0 and 1, with a better fit indicating a higher degree of conformity. The correctness and calculation accuracy of the analytical model are verified by comparing the waveform characteristics of the Earth's free oscillation waveforms from numerical simulation and analytical models; p and q are the start and end indices of the summation interval, defining the range of signal sampling points participating in the matching calculation (covering the complete characteristic period of Earth's free oscillation).
[0266] Furthermore, this invention uses Bayesian analysis and MCMC parameter estimation methods to extract estimated values of Earth's free oscillation parameters from numerical simulation data, verifying the practicality of the analytical model.
[0267] The Bayesian formula used for parameter estimation is:
[0268] ;
[0269] in, The vector to be estimated represents the core parameters of Earth’s free oscillation (such as harmonic number, oscillation frequency, and disturbance amplitude), which is the target quantity to be inferred through Bayesian analysis and the MCMC method. This refers to already obtained data, such as observational signals of inter-satellite ranging acceleration, and simulation data generated by numerical simulation, which are used to infer parameters. The basis for observation; It is signal background information, covering prior knowledge such as laser interferometry principles and satellite orbit dynamics, providing theoretical and scenario support for parameter estimation; For posterior probabilities, given observed data and background information At that time, the Earth's free oscillation parameter vector to be estimated The probability distribution reflects the parameters after combining data and prior knowledge. The degree of credibility (such as the probability distribution of oscillation frequency, amplitude, attenuation factor, etc.); As evidence (marginal likelihood), in the context information Below, observation data The total probability of occurrence is over all possible parameters. The weighted average is used to normalize the posterior probability; Let be the likelihood function, given the Earth's free oscillation parameters. and background information At that time, the observed data The probability of occurrence (such as inter-satellite ranging acceleration signals, numerical simulation data) reflects the parameter. With data The degree of compatibility; For prior probability, when only background information is known... (e.g., geophysical models, satellite orbit theories, etc.) regarding the parameters of Earth's free oscillations The probability distribution reflects prior knowledge of the parameters (such as assumptions about the parameter range based on theory).
[0270] Assuming a prior uniform distribution and that the noise is Gaussian and stationary, the likelihood function is:
[0271] ;
[0272] in, It is the likelihood function; This represents the wave pattern of Earth's free oscillation. This refers to the actual measured quantity.
[0273] The specific definition of the sign of the inner product is as follows: for two signals g and h, we have... Indicates the inner product:
[0274] ;
[0275] The Fourier transform of the signal; The conjugate of the Fourier transform of the signal; The noise one-sided power spectral density; To take the real part; For frequency.
[0276] In summary, this invention employs an integrated sampling (MCMC) algorithm for posterior distribution sampling to derive estimated values of the Earth's free oscillation mode parameters. This enables the rapid generation of Earth's free oscillation waveforms based on an analytical model.
[0277] It is worth mentioning that, based on the parameters shown in Tables 1, 2, and 3 of Embodiment 1, this invention retains the third order of the Earth's gravitational field and the third order of the Earth's free oscillation modes in the analytical model, while keeping the harmonic number to 2. In this specific embodiment, generating the unfiltered analytical waveform takes only about 2 minutes, and the time-domain waveform matching factor M between the numerical simulation and the analytical model is >99%, indicating that the Earth's free oscillation waveform generated by the analytical model is fast, accurate, and computationally precise. In this specific example, taking the OS2 Earth free oscillation mode as an example, six free oscillation modes that split due to the Earth and satellite rotation were extracted, and the oscillation frequencies of the split modes were predicted, demonstrating that the Earth's free oscillation waveform generated by the analytical model has good practicality.
[0278] In this embodiment of the invention, the present invention effectively solves the technical bottleneck of existing methods for generating Earth free oscillation waveforms, which suffer from complex and time-consuming calculation processes, making it difficult to meet the needs of rapid noise assessment and elimination, resulting in low computational efficiency. Its core technical effects are reflected in the following: First, by eliminating low-contribution terms through a simplified inter-satellite ranging acceleration analytical model, the computational complexity is significantly reduced, and the computation time is decreased. Then, by combining Bayesian analysis and MCMC parameter estimation methods, the Earth free oscillation parameters are extracted quickly and accurately, avoiding the iterative inefficiency caused by redundant parameters in traditional methods. Subsequently, a time-delay interferometry method is used to specifically extract the Earth oscillation signal from the simulated ranging acceleration signal, combined with Fourier transform and high-pass filtering. The system employs efficient noise separation and processing to rapidly assess and eliminate laser phase noise and low-frequency interference, precisely matching the task's need for rapid noise handling. Finally, a matching factor measurement mechanism achieves an efficient closed-loop model validation process. The entire technical workflow, from parameter extraction, signal generation, noise processing to model validation, forms a highly efficient connection. While ensuring the accuracy of Earth's free oscillation waveform generation, it significantly improves overall computational efficiency, overcoming the existing method's challenge of balancing complexity and time consumption. This results in efficient, accurate, and noise-fast noise processing-adaptive Earth free oscillation waveform generation, providing efficient and reliable technical support for subsequent applications such as geophysical characteristic analysis and satellite ranging accuracy calibration. This demonstrates systematic R&D innovation from model optimization to workflow design.
