摘要

低轨卫星融合5G的移动通信系统具有广阔的应用前景,为保障用户与基站之间通信链路的有效建立和数据的可靠传输,时频同步技术至关重要。传统的时频同步算法对毫米波频段、大带宽、高多普勒频移及变化率、低信噪比的低轨卫星信道的适用程度有限,导致估计精度下降。针对采用5G体制的低轨卫星通信系统上行业务数据信道,提出一种基于加权内置同步序列的时频联合同步算法,提高了时频偏估计精度。通过仿真实验对比可知,相比于传统算法,所提时频联合同步算法在不增加算法复杂度的同时,具有更优良的综合同步性能。

Abstract

The integration of low earth orbit (LEO) satellite with 5G in the mobile communication system presents extensive application prospects. To ensure effective establishment of communication links between users and base stations, as well as reliable data transmission, time-frequency synchronization technology plays a crucial role. However, traditional timing and frequency synchronization algorithms face limitations when dealing with millimeter wave frequency bands, large bandwidths, high Doppler frequency shifts and change rates, and low signal-to-noise ratios in low-orbit satellite channels. These limitations result in decreased estimation accuracy. For the uplink service data channel of a 5G-based low orbit satellite communication system, a joint timing and frequency synchronization algorithm based on weighted embedded synchronization sequences is proposed to improve the accuracy of timing and frequency offset estimation. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed timing and frequency synchronization algorithm outperforms traditional algorithms with comparable complexity in terms of synchronization performance.
