Description
Technical Field
The application belongs to the field of satellite communication, and particularly relates to a physical layer frame structure, a communication method and a communication device for low-orbit satellite communication.
Background
Satellite communications are divided by orbit and mainly comprise: geostationary orbit (GEO), medium Earth Orbit (MEO), low Earth Orbit (LEO), inclined geosynchronous orbit (IGSO), etc., wherein LEO orbit is less than 2000km, global seamless coverage throughout the day can be achieved by networking several tens to hundreds of satellites, and LEO orbits are adopted by satellites such as iridium satellites, globalities, star chains (starlinks), etc. In the low-orbit satellite communication scheme published abroad, the main frequency bands are mainly concentrated in Ka, ku and V frequency bands. In the field of emergency rescue, communication equipment at home and abroad is mainly used as emergency equipment, and the requirements of miniaturization and low power consumption cannot be met.
The most common communication system in the prior art is a LoRa system proposed by semtech company, and a plurality of techniques such as Hamming coding, gray coding, interleaving and the like are adopted in a LoRa physical layer, so that the receiving sensitivity of signals is greatly improved. The frame format of the LoRa system includes four parts, namely a Preamble (Preamble), a Header (Header), a Payload (Payload) and a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC). However, the Payload content takes up 8 bits, so that in a packet of LoRa data, the subsequent Payload content is 255 bytes at maximum, and the transmission data amount in a frame is 255 bytes at maximum, so that the data amount is too small; for a high dynamic scene, error codes are easy to generate because of no frequency offset tracking method; with simple hamming coding, the Eb/N0 of the signal cannot be reduced (the ratio of the energy required by the communication system to transmit one bit of information to the noise power spectral density is a system index for measuring the performance normalization of the whole communication system).
Therefore, a communication scheme for low-orbit satellites is needed to solve the above-mentioned problems.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the defects of the prior art, the application provides a new physical layer frame structure for low-orbit satellite communication, which is applicable to a low-orbit satellite communication system and solves the communication requirements of high dynamics and low sensitivity; the pilot frequency band is inserted into the signal frame structure, so that the time offset and the frequency offset can be calibrated regularly. By the method, the signal can be continuously received in a long-distance and high-dynamic narrow-band transmission environment, and the signal can still normally work when the dynamic change of the low-orbit satellite is relatively large, and meanwhile, continuous 65536 bytes of continuous reception can be supported, so that the success rate of communication is greatly increased, and the signal transmission in a narrow-band burst mode is ensured.

According to a third aspect of the present application there is provided a low orbit satellite communications device comprising a signal generator for generating a signal conforming to the physical layer frame structure as described in any one of the preceding claims.
The application has the technical effects that the signal to noise ratio can still be normally received by using a linear frequency modulation mode under the condition of not increasing the bandwidth of the signal, and the transmission distance is greatly improved; in addition, the signal tracking is realized by inserting up/down pilot frequency, and the Doppler change rate can be resisted by 300Hz/s; enabling ground terminals to use lower transmit power for communication services with low-orbit satellites.

As shown in fig. 1, in the physical layer frame structure of the low-orbit satellite communication in an embodiment of the present application, the physical layer frame includes a synchronization word, a frame header, and a plurality of information payloads (playload), and pilot (pilot) is selectively inserted after the information payloads according to the application environment; the data length of the frame header is set to be 16 bits; the information payload is either viterbi coded or BCH coded.
Compared with the traditional LoRa system applied to short byte burst communication, the data length is set to 16 bits at the frame head position in the embodiment, so that 65535 byte data can be transmitted; the pilot field is added in the frame structure, so that the method can be used for tracking frequency offset in a high dynamic environment, and effective Doppler compensation during long-time transmission is ensured; compared with the LoRa system using Hamming code, the embodiment increases the coding mode of the playoad data, does not use Hamming code, adopts Viterbi code or BCH code with better performance, and improves Eb/N0 of the signal. Eb/N0 refers to the ratio of the energy required by the communication system to transmit one bit of information to the noise power spectral density, where Eb: energy in bits, in Joules (Joules); n0: the power spectral density of noise in Watts per hertz (Watts per Hz);
in this embodiment, viterbi coding is preferred, and Eb/N0 is improved without increasing the signal bandwidth, which is advantageous for improving the communication sensitivity and increasing the transmission distance.
In an embodiment of the application, pilot can be selected not to be inserted under the ground low dynamic environment, so that continuous signal receiving can be realized, bandwidth can be saved, pilot data can be inserted at intervals according to the need during low orbit satellite communication, and the communication stability is greatly improved.
The sync word in one embodiment of the application consists of a fixed 200 up chirp signal and 2 down chirp signals. 200 upchirp are used for capturing of the early signal and frequency offset calculation and tracking, wherein 200 upchirp can reduce the false detection probability of the signal on one hand and can estimate the Doppler change rate at the same time. The 2 downchirp signals are used in conjunction with 200 upcharps to calculate frequency offset and timing offset.
In one embodiment of the application, the frame header consists of a data length, an inserted pilot interval, a playoad coding mode and a BCH coding. Wherein the data length is set to 16 bits, 65535 bytes of data can be transmitted; the interval of the inserted pilot frequency is set to be 8 bits, which means that the pilot frequency can be freely inserted in 0 to 255 symbol, and for the application scene with large frequency change rate, a small interval can be configured, so that the frequency of frequency tracking is increased, and the frequency deviation caused by high dynamic can be calibrated through each frequency tracking; the playoad coding mode is set to be 3 bits, 8 coding modes can be available, and different coding modes can be selected according to different signal sensitivities.
In one embodiment of the application, the pilot consists of 1 upchirp signal and 1 downchirp signal.
According to a second aspect of the present application, there is provided a method of low-orbit satellite communication, wherein a physical layer frame structure for low-orbit satellite communication as described in any one of the above is used between a communication device and a low-orbit satellite.
According to a third aspect of the present application there is provided a low orbit satellite communications device comprising a signal generator for generating a signal conforming to the physical layer frame structure as described in any one of the preceding claims.
The application has the technical effects that the signal to noise ratio can still be normally received by using a linear frequency modulation mode under the condition of not increasing the bandwidth of the signal, and the transmission distance is greatly improved; in addition, a mode of inserting up/down pilot frequency is adopted to realize signal tracking; enabling ground terminals to use lower transmit power for communication services with low-orbit satellites.
