摘要:
民航S模式应答信号空时结构复杂,易受到传输链路非线性影响和临近电磁干扰,严重影响到达时间(TOA)高精确提取。在民航S模式应答信号空时结构与频谱分析基础上,提出S模式信号脉冲结构简化的准S模式信号模型,根据准S模式信号、弱非线性系统特性反演约束的核函数,构建简化Volterra级数模型。仿真结果表明,基于准S模式信号的简化Volterra级数模型的核函数收益倍数不低于27倍。采用3阶简化Volterra级数模型与高次频点频谱补偿组合方式,对实测信噪比约为13 dB的受干扰S模式信号的准S模式信号进行恢复,实现了用约8.8%的准S模式信号模型的计算量得到约1.54%波形恢复误差,且恢复信号比受干扰信号提取TOA的准确度提升超过73%。基于核函数约束的准S模式信号简化Volterra级数模型,对民航S模式应答信号TOA的准确估计、定位精确度提升具有重要理论价值。
Abstract:The very accurate time-of-arrival (TOA) extraction is significantly impacted by the complicated space-time structure of the civil aviation S-mode transponder signal, which is also vulnerable to neighboring electromagnetic interference and transmission link nonlinearities. Based on the air-time structure and spectral analysis of the civil aviation S-mode transponder signal, a quasi-S-mode signal definition model is proposed to simplify the pulse structure of the S-mode signal, and a simplified Volterra level model is constructed based on the quasi-S-mode signal, the kernel function of the inversion constraints of the weak nonlinear system characteristics. Simulation results show that the kernel function gain multiplier of the simplified Volterra level model based on the quasi-S-mode signal is not less than 27 times. Finally, the quasi-S-mode recovery of an interfered S-mode signal with a measured signal-to-noise ratio of about 13 dB is achieved by using a combination of the 3rd-order simplified Volterra level model and spectral compensation at high sub-frequency points, and the waveform recovery error of about 1.54% is obtained with the computation of about 8.8% of the standard S-mode signal model. Additionally, the accuracy of the recovered signal is improved by more than 73% over the TOA extracted from the disturbed signal. Consequently, the reduced Volterra level model of quasi-S-mode signal based on kernel function constraints has significant theoretical significance for improving localization accuracy and accurately estimating the arrival time of S-mode signals in civil aviation.
