Description

Orbital angular momentum index modulation transmission system and method suitable for long-distance transmission
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radio electromagnetic wave communication, in particular to a system and a method for modulating and transmitting an index of orbital angular momentum suitable for long-distance transmission.
Background
The electromagnetic wave Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) is an inherent property of an electromagnetic wave and is another important physical quantity different from the conventional electromagnetic wave frequency, electric field intensity, and the like. The electromagnetic wave having OAM is also called "vortex electromagnetic wave", and the phase plane is not perpendicular to the propagation direction and shows a spiral distribution. The conventional plane wave phase plane that is usually employed is perpendicular to the propagation direction and therefore does not have OAM. The electromagnetic wave with OAM is obviously different from the conventional plane electromagnetic wave, so that people can develop the electromagnetic wave from a new dimension, and the electromagnetic wave has great value in the fields of information transmission and target detection by applying the electromagnetic wave.
In recent years, research on OAM in the field of low-frequency electromagnetic waves is receiving more and more attention from scholars at home and abroad. In 2007, B, Thid é et al verified that low frequency electromagnetic waves (frequencies below 1GHz) can also generate OAM by numerical simulation of the antenna array. The analysis of the existing electromagnetic wave OAM transmission mode can discover that: as the OAM number increases, the OAM electromagnetic wave divergence angle increases, and the electromagnetic wave beam emitted from the first transmitting/receiving antenna becomes cone-shaped. The longer the transmission distance, the more divergent the beam. In 2012, F, tambourini et al realized a 442m long-distance OAM point-to-point transmission experiment for the first time, and proved that OAM has the potential of improving the spectrum efficiency of a communication system through long-distance multiplexing transmission. The adopted receiving method is two-point difference, namely: phase gradient method. However, the phase gradient method requires that both reception points are located on the same circle perpendicular to the propagation axis, and the center of the circle coincides with the propagation axis. Phase misalignment will reduce the accuracy of OAM mode detection. Moreover, the detection accuracy decreases with decreasing opening angle between the two receiving antennas, namely: when the distance between the two receiving antennas is fixed, the detection accuracy decreases as the transmission distance increases. In 2016 and 12 months, 27.5 km long-distance transmission experiments are completed in an aerospace electronic system laboratory of Qinghua university, in 2018, the subject group further extends the transmission distance to 172 km, and finally four-way four-mode OAM multiplexing transmission is realized.
For review, the previous researches have found that the research results on the transmission of OAM electromagnetic waves in a long distance in a microwave band are few. The OAM wave beam is in an inverted cone shape, the farther the distance is, the larger the annular phase surface is, the more difficult the coaxial full phase surface is to receive, for example, the diameter of the phase surface can even reach several kilometers when the coaxial full phase surface is transmitted over 100 kilometers. At this time, in the actual engineering, only partial phase plane receiving method can be adopted, and the partial phase plane receiving can not obtain the large-amplitude capacity gain caused by OAM dimension orthogonality, and only can obtain an extra channel caused by non-orthogonal OAM multiplexing with small capacity. Therefore, there is still a need to further improve the modulation and detection methods of OAM signal transmission. In addition, the "long distance" in the "long distance transmission" referred to in the present invention generally means a straight distance of more than 100 meters, and the long distance transmission is suitable for long distance wireless communication, mobile relay, microwave relay, vehicle-mounted communication, air-ground communication, satellite communication, space communication, and the like.

The transmission method is not only suitable for transmitting and receiving the OAM electromagnetic wave within 1 kilometer, but also suitable for transmitting and receiving the long-distance OAM electromagnetic wave above 1 kilometer. Due to the limitation of the beam divergence angle, the OAM spiral phase plane is continuously enlarged along with the increase of the distance, kilometer-level transmission is impossible to receive the whole OAM spiral phase plane at the same time, crosstalk among different modes is brought when partial phase planes are received, orthogonality among the modes is damaged, and the degree of freedom is reduced along with the reduction of the receiving phase plane. Therefore, when long-distance transmission is carried out, the OAM multiplexing mode can be degenerated into a low-freedom transmission mode, the invention utilizes the characteristic of OAM as a new freedom degree, utilizes the combination of different modes to form index modulation at a transmitting end, and expands the spectrum efficiency of an OAM communication system from the angle of the index modulation. Because OAM is a new dimension different from other physical quantities of electromagnetic waves, the transmission of the amplitude-phase modulation signal is not influenced after index modulation, and therefore OAM index modulation information and an amplitude-phase modulation constellation can be transmitted at the transmitting end at the same time, and the purpose of OAM long-distance and high-spectrum-efficiency transmission is achieved.

Detailed Description
Embodiments of an electromagnetic wave orbital angular momentum index modulation long-distance transmission system and a transmission method according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways, or combinations thereof, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the drawings and description are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit the scope of the claims. Furthermore, in the present description, the drawings are not to scale and like reference numerals refer to like parts.
In principle, OAM may be received using a specific OAM sensor, or using an antenna. For example, when all-phase plane co-axial reception is performed, the OAM is mapped to an airspace by using an antenna array, and the change of OAM causes the change of the distribution of electromagnetic wave phase planes in space, so that the change of OAM can be estimated by using the antenna array to measure the phase difference of electromagnetic waves at different positions in space. Further, according to analysis, in addition to mapping to a space domain, OAM may form a mapping to other domains, for example, OAM is measured by a rotation method, in practice, a change of OAM is mapped to a time domain, and further mapped to a frequency domain by a spectrometer, and electromagnetic waves of different OAM modes are mapped to several different spectral lines in the frequency domain under the mapping of a rotation function relationship. The Virtual Rotating Antenna (VRA) method disclosed in patent No. 2016109163094 may be configured to construct an index domain through setting of a pre-filter (where a first frequency domain refers to a frequency domain to which a common received signal is mapped after fourier transform, and the index domain refers to a received common frequency signal, because the common frequency signal contains different OAM modes, and after performing fourier transform after performing Virtual interpolation rotation operation, the original common frequency signal may form different spectral lines along with different OAM modes, which is referred to as an index domain herein), and may also construct a one-to-one mapping relationship between different spectral lines and different OAM electromagnetic waves in the index domain through a Virtual interpolation algorithm.
Therefore, as can be seen from the above analysis, this dimension of OAM can be measured by mapping to different transform domains through different mappable relationships, and the set of all mapping functions is the new index domain. There are many methods for constructing OAM index fields, different methods actually correspond to different mapping function relationships, and the same index field may even be obtained by different mapping functions, thereby forming an intricate change space. The mapping method for mapping the OAM to the index field is various, so that the index field of the OAM can be very large, and a large research space is provided for OAM index modulation. The long-distance index modulation transmission system of electromagnetic wave OAM of the present invention is explained below.

The signal processing work flow of the whole electromagnetic wave orbital angular momentum index modulation transmission system suitable for long-distance transmission is as follows: as shown in fig. 1, original information of a user is encoded into bit information to be transmitted, the bit information is decomposed into two parts after passing through a bit decomposition module 102, one part of the bit information is input into an amplitude-phase modulation mapping module 103 and is mapped into amplitude-phase constellation points to be transmitted, the other part of the bit information enters an OAM index modulation mapping module 104, a one-to-one mapping relation is established with different OAM mode combinations through a lookup table, then the two parts of information are combined into intermediate frequency carrier waves to be transmitted through an arbitrary waveform generator 105, after frequency mixing and amplification are performed through a radio frequency link 202, an antenna feed source 201 is controlled to transmit OAM electromagnetic waves of different combination modes, and the OAM electromagnetic waves are transmitted in a free space after energy convergence through a transmitting surface.

In summary, the electromagnetic wave orbital angular momentum index modulation transmission system suitable for long-distance transmission of the present invention can achieve OAM information transmission with long-distance and high spectral efficiency, because only part of information of a spiral phase plane can be sampled and received at a receiving end, orthogonality cannot be maintained between OAM signals of each mode, if a transmission multiplexing transmission mode is adopted, mutual crosstalk between channels will be caused, and further, channel capacity is reduced. The invention creatively provides that indexes are formed by adopting OAM combinations in different modes, and a one-to-one mapping relation is established between the indexes and user bit information, so that on the basis of amplitude-phase modulation, due to the introduction of new dimensionality of OAM, the frequency spectrum efficiency of system transmission is further improved under the condition of not increasing original system link resources.

In an optional embodiment, different OAM index modulations correspond to different coded transmission symbols according to a combination mode of different OAM modes, and reliability of system transmission can be further improved by hamming distance between codes in combination with index modulation. Specifically, when different combination modes of the OAM mode are demapped in the index domain, distances between corresponding different spectral lines are not consistent, so that the joint coding module 101 at the transmitting end increases the discrimination degree when the receiving end detects by using different hamming distances between different coding symbols. And codes with large Hamming distance are configured for transmission, so that the reliability of the receiving end joint detection can be further improved. The Hamming distance between two character strings with equal length is the number of different characters at the corresponding positions of the two character strings.
In an alternative embodiment, diversity reception by the receive antenna array is used to further increase the channel capacity of the system. When the number of the receiving antennas is more than or equal to 2, the different receiving antennas can be combined with each other to obtain the multi-antenna diversity gain of the receiving end, meanwhile, the different antennas respectively collect the information of different positions of the OAM phase surface, and the signal-to-noise ratio before the detection of the signal can be improved in a mode of maximum ratio combination, so that the stability of the system is improved when the amplitude-phase modulation constellation points are detected.
In an alternative embodiment, because the OAM of different modes needs to be transformed into an index domain during processing of the received signal and each spectral line after virtual interpolation rotation interpolation forms a one-to-one mapping, however, in the index domain, the distance intervals between the spectral lines corresponding to any OAM mode combination are not equal, and even the phenomenon that the spectral lines corresponding to several mode combinations are very close to each other or even overlap occurs, which brings difficulty to the detection of OAM index modulation. The spectrum interval of different OAM mode combinations in the index domain can be enlarged by power allocation, and the selection of the OAM mode at the transmitting end and the power allocation algorithm are as follows: according to the principle of signal vector superposition, a weighting coefficient is distributed for each OAM mode, an optimization equation is established, under the condition that the total transmitting power is not changed, the power distribution of all OAM modes participating in superposition in different modes is adjusted through an AWG (arbitrary waveform generator), the power is discretized, and the optimal weighting coefficient is determined in a computer search traversal mode, so that the Euclidean distance between corresponding spectral lines of all OAM combined modes in an index domain is adjusted to be equal, and the detection reliability is improved.

Based on the electromagnetic wave orbital angular momentum index modulation transmission system suitable for long-distance transmission provided by the invention, the example describes the joint coding and transmitting structure of the transmitting end in detail and the joint decoding process combining Viterbi decoding at the receiving end, namely: the amplitude phase constellation point and the OAM mode are combined and placed in the same constellation space to perform joint modulation, and simultaneously, the receiving end is combined with a viterbi decoder to perform joint decoding, and the structure of the combination is shown in fig. 2.
In two-dimensional constellation optimization, constellation points arranged on a unit circle need to satisfy the following principle: the number of constellation points arranged on the same circle is proportional to the radius of the circle; the constellation points on the same circle need to be evenly distributed. According to these principles, the optimization of constellation points can be obtained by maximizing the euclidean distance with constraint on the average energy, namely:
Figure GDA0002512721130000126
wherein d isminRepresenting the minimum Euclidean distance, E, between constellation pointsavgRepresents the mean energy of the constellation points, and s.t. refers to the constraint. M represents the total number of constellation points, NiDenotes a radius RiThe ith constellation circle of (c). In the optimization process of the three-dimensional constellation diagram in this embodiment, each constellation point may be expanded into a multilayer structure, and the steps of constructing the optimization of the constellation points based on the OAM mode combination and the PSK constellation space are as follows:
(1) optimizing a PSK modulation two-dimensional constellation to ensure that all PSK constellation points are uniformly distributed on a corresponding unit circle, and different PSK constellation diagrams are transmitted by different OAM mode combinations;
(2) through power allocation, spectrum intervals of different OAM mode combinations in an index domain are enlarged, namely, the distance between constellations of each layer is enlarged;
(3) and superposing the PSK constellation points of each layer to form an initial phase, so that the constellation between two adjacent layers is rotated, and the Euclidean distance between the PSK constellation points transmitted by OAM mode combination can be adjusted, so that the minimum Euclidean distance of the whole three-dimensional constellation point is maximum.
As can be seen from fig. 2, different OAM mode combinations may be used to transmit different or the same constellation points, and at the same time, different OAM mode combinations may also be used as indexes to transmit information, and a third three-dimensional modulation space in the z-axis direction is constructed on the basis of the amplitude-phase modulated two-dimensional constellation diagram, thereby forming an OAM-PSK joint constellation space (i.e., a three-dimensional constellation diagram). For the mode combination of OAM and PSK joint modulation, at the transmitting end, the original information is firstly subjected to grid coding, and then the coded symbols are mapped into points in an OAM-PSK joint constellation space. At the receiving end, a two-array-element antenna array can be used to receive signals, the OAM mode combination transmitted by the transmitting end is estimated by adopting the virtual interpolation rotation method disclosed in patent No. 2016109163094, and then the symbols subjected to trellis coding are decoded by adopting the standard viterbi decoding algorithm to obtain PSK signal constellation points, thereby obtaining the original bit data.
OAM transmission is typically only applied in a single path line-of-sight (LOS) transmission environment, and channel noise may be characterized as Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). The received signal may be expressed as:

Third example
Assuming that a transmitting end can generate a plurality of OAM modes, a receiving end adopts a method of virtual interpolation rotation of two antennas to construct an index domain. Assuming one receiving antenna as a reference position where the initial phases of all OAM modes are aligned, on the second antenna, the combined signal of the different OAM modes can be written as follows:
Figure GDA0002512721130000141
after simplification, the superimposed signal can be represented in the form of a vector:
Figure GDA0002512721130000142
is provided with
Figure GDA0002512721130000143
The received signal can be further written as

Figure GDA0002512721130000147
the method is characterized in that the phase difference of the superposed signals generated between two receiving antennas is represented, omega represents the angular frequency of the signals, t represents time, and the superposition of the OAM modes in different modes meets the parallelogram vector superposition rule, so that the purpose of controlling and changing the phase of the superposed signals can be realized by changing the amplitudes of the different OAM modes participating in the superposition under the condition that the phase difference formed between the two antennas at the receiving end in different OAM modes is constant.
Suppose that the transmitting end is capable of generating NtOAM electromagnetic wave, N is selected each timeaMultiple OAM transmits the same M-PSK signals, and all OAM modes implement phase alignment on the first reference antenna at the receiving end, then for the k-th combination mode, the phase difference of the OAM mode combination between the second receiving antenna and the first receiving antenna is:

represents from NtSelecting N from root antennaaAnd in addition, each phase difference corresponds to an OAM transmitting combination mode after virtual interpolation and rotary interpolation, a transmitting end is supposed to be capable of generating 4 OAM signals in different modes, the number of the modes is 1,2,3 and 4 respectively for combined transmission, at most 15 different combinations can be formed, 8 of the combinations can be selected for index modulation transmission, and a BPSK constellation point is combined, so that the combination system achieves the transmission rate of 4 bits of each symbol. In the selected mode combination, if the power of all OAM modes is uniformly distributed, the combination of modes 1 and 3 is substantially the same as the phase difference formed on the two antennas at the receiving end when mode 2 is transmitted alone, i.e. it is not easily distinguished in the index domain due to the close distance between the spectral lines. Therefore, the present example changes the power distribution coefficients of different OAM modes in different combinations
Figure GDA0002512721130000156
The phase difference of the sum signal is controlled to be changed, that is, the power distribution of different OAM at the transmitting end when the same signal weighting is transmitted is changed, so that the spectral lines corresponding to the mode combination of each OAM in the index domain can be separated, and the one-to-one mapping relation between the different spectral lines and the combination of different OAM modes in the index domain is realized.
In order to achieve the euclidean distances between all spectral lines being as equal as possible, in other words, to maximize the minimum phase difference of the vector superposition signals of all combined modes, and to maximize the euclidean distances between different modes, the power distribution of the transmitting end can be further modeled as the following optimization problem:

(1) on the premise that all OAM combined modes are known, firstly, the transmitting power can be discretely quantized into different small intervals, and the specific number setting of the intervals can be determined according to the computing capacity of a transmitting end computer;
(2) for each combination mode, the power distribution coefficients of different OAM modes in the combination mode are changed in sequence
Figure GDA0002512721130000157
Further calculating the phase difference caused by different OAM combined modes at the receiving end under the distribution coefficient;
(3) under the limiting condition that the total transmitting power is guaranteed to be unchanged, the power combination modes of all the combination modes under the divided distribution coefficients are sequentially traversed in a computer searching and traversing mode, the power distribution modes which enable the phase differences of all the OAM combination modes to be equal are searched and searched, and the power distribution modes are used as the optimal power distribution modes to be implemented at a transmitting end, so that the Euclidean distances between corresponding spectral lines of all the OAM combination modes in an index domain are adjusted to be equal, and the reliability of detection is improved. The corresponding power allocation results of all OAM modes in different index modulation combinations in this embodiment are shown in table 2:

In the above, two receiving antennas are taken as an example, the receiving subsystem may actually have more than two receiving antennas, and the method of constructing the index field for any two receiving antennas is not different from the method of constructing the index field for any two receiving antennas, and the description thereof is omitted here.
Fourth example
This embodiment is similar to the first and third embodiments, and this example still assumes that the transmitting end of the OAM index modulation system can generate 4 OAM signals with different modes, and for comparison, it is assumed in the simulation that the transmitting end of the MIMO (which means that a plurality of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas are respectively used at the transmitting end and the receiving end, and signals are transmitted and received through the plurality of antennas at the transmitting end and the receiving end) system is also configured with 4 identical antennas, the total transmitting power is constant, and the receiving end is constantConfiguration NrAccording to the common receiving antenna, the error rate performance of the transmission system and the change of the transmission capacity of the system along with the receiving diversity are simulated and analyzed.
In the OAM index modulation method provided by the invention, a transmitting end respectively selects and distributes power to combinations of different OAM modes, a virtual interpolation rotation method is adopted at a receiving end to determine the transmitted OAM combination mode, BPSK constellation points transmitted by the combination mode are detected at the same time, and user data are combined and demodulated. The comparative multi-antenna transmission system is a line-of-sight MIMO (LoS-MIMO) communication system, the receiving end determines the channel characteristics by an open-loop channel estimation method, i.e., does not need pilot information, estimates the channel information directly according to the characteristics of the signals, and the simulation process calculates the error rate performance of different transmission systems under the condition of known channel characteristics, as shown in fig. 4.
In the figure, AWGN in the notation represents additive white gaussian noise, OAM:4 represents that the transmitting end transmits 4 OAM signals of different modes, Rx:2 represents that the receiving end has two antennas, and Tx:4 represents that the transmitting end has 4 antennas.

The amplitude-phase modulation method usually adopts a high-order modulation transmission mode, and can compare with the error code performance of constellation point modulation by adopting 16 QAM. In the LoS-MIMO transmission system adopting 4 same antennas, to achieve the same symbol transmission rate, it is also necessary to multiplex and transmit QPSK constellation points on each antenna. Simulation shows that compared with a LoS-MIMO transmission system with known channel characteristic CSI, the OAM index modulation system provided by the invention has a lower error rate, because the OAM index modulation system can better avoid inter-carrier interference ICI and introduces space gain, the error code performance can be further reduced compared with a common MIMO system under the condition of realizing the same spectrum efficiency. Meanwhile, the OAM index modulation system only activates part of radio frequency links each time, so a complex conflict avoidance algorithm is not neededIt is used. The receiver design is simpler than V-BLAST, and therefore has lower system implementation complexity, which can reduce link overhead. Compared with a high-order modulation mode under the condition of the same spectral efficiency, the OAM index modulation method provided by the invention has obviously reduced error code performance, because the OAM index modulation system provided by the invention adopts a joint coding method, a common two-dimensional constellation map is converted into a three-dimensional space constellation map, and the Euclidean distance between constellation points is further enlarged by utilizing phase rotation between different plane constellation maps, so that the reliability of the system is greatly enhanced.
