The invention discloses a self-adaptive capturing method for a multi-rate
direct sequence spread spectrum signal of a
low earth orbit satellite, and belongs to the field of
low earth orbit satellite communication. According to the method, the multi-rate
direct sequence spread spectrum signal self-adaptive capturing method is constructed, multiple sets of
direct sequence spread spectrum signal receivers at all rates do not need to be achieved, signal detection and synchronization can be conducted on the multi-rate direct sequence
spread spectrum signals only through one set of
receiver algorithm, and hardware
resource consumption of the receivers is reduced; meanwhile, the capturing method is compatible with
processing of multi-rate direct sequence
spread spectrum signals, so that risks caused by program reconstruction and interruption of communication services can be avoided; in addition, under the condition that the transmitting power is not changed, the ground terminal adjusts the transmitting rate, on one hand, the transmitting rate can be increased, and the signal
exposure time can be shortened; on the other hand, the
transmission rate can be reduced to ensure the communication reliability, and the communication is more flexible; according to the invention, on the basis of a DSSS
receiver algorithm, signal detection and synchronization of
spread spectrum signals with different rates are completed through a self-adaptive adjustment capturing method.
