High-Accuracy Phase Frequency Detection Technology Based on BDS Time and Frequency Signals

Abstract

For the time and frequency signals of Beidou satellites, a high-accuracy phase frequency detection technology based on phase group synchronization is proposed. Using the Beidou receiver and satellite signals as the frequency standard and the measured signals, respectively. The Beidou receiver and the satellite signals are sent to the phase coincidence detector of the different frequencies to generate a phase coincidence point pulse, which is sent to the different frequency phase detector as a control signal to generate the phase differences between the Beidou receiver and satellite signals, and then complete the high-accuracy phase synchronization between the Beidou receiver and satellite signals. Experimental results show that when the delay resolution reaches ps level, the phase synchronization accuracy of the system can reach 10 ps, which has the characteristics of small phase noise, low development cost, simple circuit structure, and high synchronization accuracy compared with the traditional phase synchronization technologies. Therefore, it would be widely used in satellite positioning, astrometry, precision navigation, aerospace, satellite launch, power transmission, communications, radar, and other high-tech fields.
