Specific implementation mode
The technology contents of the present invention include following three:1) first according to the load scheme of ultra wide band reflecting surface satellite-borne SAR Internal calibration loop and internal calibration network module are devised, ensures comprehensive covering to system transceiver channel;2) secondly, phase is devised Position calibration obtains the system internal calibration workflow being combined with channel magnitude-phase characteristics;3) it finally, gives and is believed using internal calibration Number obtain the Processing Algorithm of Range compress matching template.
1. the internal calibration loop and internal calibration network design of ultra wide band reflecting surface SAR
The internal calibration loop of ultra-wide reflecting surface satellite-borne SAR need to meet following three aspects constraints:
(1) calibration loop must assure that each access that covering radar imagery pulse is undergone comprehensively;
(2) access specific to rate-aided signal stream or not scaled signal covering and what radar pulse signal was undergone Access, it is necessary to have higher temperature and time stability;
(3) rate-aided signal needs have same signal parameter (pulsewidth and bandwidth) with imaging signal.
Based on constraints above condition and ultra wide band reflecting surface SAR load system schemes, the loop design such as attached drawing 1 of internal calibration Shown, wherein dotted line module realizes the unit that newly introduces of internal calibration for system, includes:1. being located at transmitter in transmission channel 2 between synthesis network front end select 1 switch;2. being located at 2 between feed reception switch matrix and receiver in receiving channel Select 1 switch;3. the coupler group between circulator and antenna feed array;4. realize calibration loop switching, delays time to control and The internal calibration network element of gain-adjusted.
Attached drawing 2 gives the scheme block diagram of internal calibration network.Different calibrations are realized inside it by multiple selecting switch Signal path switching under pattern;Also carry out Regulate signal power with radio frequency unit simultaneously, ensures optical fiber delay unit and reception The input signal of machine meets corresponding power requirement;Optical fiber delay unit in network is used for emit after rate-aided signal is delayed again Receiver is inputed to, rate-aided signal is avoided to be interfered by high-power exomonental spatial leaks;Internal calibration network also carries certainly The power supply and monitoring and controlling unit of body, realization is powered to it and the function of remote-control romote-sensing.
The internal calibration pattern of entire SAR system includes three kinds of transmitting calibration, reception calibration and reference calibration, these three are fixed Mark pattern forms holonomic system internal calibration process.With the port in attached drawing 1 marked as reference, the calibration letter under three kinds of calibration modes Number flow direction as listed in table 1:
The rate-aided signal of table 1 ultra wide band reflecting surface, three kinds of internal calibration patterns flows to
Calibration mode Rate-aided signal flows to
Transmitting calibration Transmitter → 2 → 7 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 10 → receiver
With reference to calibration Transmitter → 1 → 3 → 6 → 10 → receiver
Receive calibration Transmitter → 1 → 3 → 5 → 4 → 7 → 8 → 9 → receiver
In emitting calibration mode, transmitter output signal will enter transmission channel.Pulse signal by 2 select 1 switch, After synthesizing network front end and TWTA groups, low-power level signal all the way is coupled out by the coupler between circulator and feed array It enters in internal calibration network.In internal calibration network, 1 switch is selected to select the low-power level signal that feed all the way is coupled out by 4, Then pass through in radio frequency unit and delay cell and does corresponding level conversion and time delay processing, it is defeated finally by radio frequency unit Go out to reach 2 before receiver and select 1 switch, then receiver is entered by the switch and does reception processing.
In reference loop calibration mode, the output signal of transmitter will select 1 switch to enter internal calibration network by 2.Arteries and veins It rushes signal and enters radio frequency unit progress level conversion by a series of switches in internal calibration network, then pass through optical fiber delay Unit carries out carrying out radio frequency unit progress level conversion after accordingly postponing again, is finally exported from radio frequency unit and reaches receiver 1 switch is selected in preceding 2, is entered by the switch and carries out reception processing in receiver.
In the case where receiving calibration mode, transmitter output signal will select 1 switch to enter internal calibration network by 2.Pulse signal It is exported by port 5 by gating switch in internal calibration network, which reaches the coupling port 4 of coupler group, from the end It mouthful enters circulator, amplitude limit LNA, select 1 switch to enter finally by 2 to carry out reception processing in receiver.
Carry out frequency spectrum splicing realization distance to ultrahigh resolution, together since ultra wide band reflecting surface SAR will use multi-subband signal When need branched TWTA and emit the final signal noise ratio (snr) of image of high-power guarantee to synthesize.It is attached by taking 3 sub-band bursts, 4 TWTA as an example Fig. 3 give involved by internal calibration process synthesis network front end (including 4 power splitters and four transmitting phase shifter t1~ T4), TWTA groups (being made of TWTA1~TWTA4), circulator group (being made of circulator 1~4), coupler group are (by coupler 1~4 composition), amplitude limit LNA modules (including four amplitude limit LNA units, four reception phase shifter r1~r4, four isolators and One combiner) and internal calibration network detailed composition.
2. system calibration flow
The internal calibration work of system is completed before the imaging begins.The transmitting of four tunnels is obtained first with phase alignment calibration The phase deviation between phase deviation, four tunnel receiving channels between channel, then by adjusting transmitting phase shifter t1~t4 and connect The phase shift value for receiving phase shifter r1~r4 is inconsistent to correct the phase between transmission channel and receiving channel.In transmitting-receiving multiplexer channel Phase alignment on the basis of, then carry out transceiver channel magnitude-phase characteristics calibration.Finally, using corresponding algorithm to channel characteristic mark Determine signal to be handled, obtains distance and compress template to matching.Attached drawing 4 gives the complete of ultra wide band reflecting surface Spaceborne SAR System Adjust mark flow.
It can be seen that from flowing chart above, system internal calibration needs to carry out independent phase alignment and channel for each subband Characteristic obtains.After the channel characteristic for completing all subbands obtains, of each subband is obtained further according to corresponding Processing Algorithm With template.It is below reference, other 3 subbands, transmitting with subband 1 due to being similar for the calibration process of each subband Machine emits signal difference, and flow is identical, and detailed calibration flow is given below.
(1) demarcation flow of phase alignment
The phase alignment of transmitter transmitting SAR signal subspaces band 1 includes the phase to four road transmission channels and four tunnel receiving channels Position calibration.Calibration process will utilize the low-limit frequency f of subband 1L, centre frequency fCWith highest frequency fHIt is obtained etc. multiple frequency points The phase value in channel, then carry out Combined Treatment to it and obtain the inter-channel phase difference for entire subband, finally utilize the above phase Potential difference adjusts phase shifter t1~t4 in transmission channel and receiving channel and r1~r4, to achieve the purpose that phase alignment.
The initial phase shift value of four road transmission channel phase shifter t1~t4 and four tunnel receiving channel phase shifter r1~r4 are set as 180o, can positive and negative two-way adjustment.The 1 complete implementation steps of transceiver channel phase alignment of subband are will be given below, it is primary complete Phase alignment includes 24 steps altogether, and the 1st~8 step, 9~16 steps and 17~24 steps are directed to frequency point f respectivelyL、fCAnd fHExpansion.
