The invention discloses a
millimeter wave angle extraction and
laser link aiming method based on layered channel
estimation, and relates to the field of
laser communication. The objective of the invention is to solve the problem of low
laser aiming accuracy and efficiency caused by low
millimeter wave angle extraction efficiency and accuracy in the existing
radio frequency assisted laser communication method. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring an equivalent received
signal model of a carrier; constructing a channel model and a beam domain dictionary, and applying the beam domain dictionary to the channel model to obtain a vectorized channel model applying the beam domain dictionary; vectorizing the equivalent received
signal model of the carrier to obtain a vectorized observation
signal model; obtaining a candidate angle domain by adopting an M-layer
codebook step-by-step scanning strategy, and obtaining a beam emission angle estimated value and a beam arrival angle estimated value based on the candidate angle domain; and according to the
measurement precision of the beam emission angle
estimation value and the beam arrival angle
estimation value, obtaining the laser link pointing uncertainty area. The method is used for laser angle estimation and link aiming.
