Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及一种空间激光干涉系统激光指向控制技术的模拟方法和装置,特别是涉及一种可用于空间双星激光外差干涉测距系激光指向控制技术的模拟方法和装置,用以进行地面模拟实验。The present invention relates to a simulation method and device for the laser pointing control technology of a space laser interference system, in particular to a simulation method and device for the laser pointing control technology of a space double-star laser heterodyne interference ranging system for ground simulation experiment.
背景技术Background technique
目前欧美地区计划发展的许多空间探索项目,例如下一代月球重力场探测卫星计划、地球先进重力卫星计划和空间引力波探测计划等。我国专门召开会议研讨如何开展引力波探测,空间引力波探测也被列入中国科学院制订的空间科学50年规划中。同时,受到重力卫星GRACE计划的巨大成功的推动,为了赶上国际重力测量的发展潮流,我国也开始探讨建设自主的星间激光干涉测量的先进重力卫星系统。由于空间探测的高精度要求,各国在优化对比的基础上均采取了星间激光干涉测距技术作为信号探测的基本方法学。There are currently many space exploration projects planned in Europe and the United States, such as the next-generation lunar gravitational field exploration satellite program, the Earth's advanced gravity satellite program, and the space gravitational wave detection program. my country held a special meeting to discuss how to carry out gravitational wave detection, and space gravitational wave detection has also been included in the 50-year space science plan formulated by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. At the same time, driven by the great success of the gravity satellite GRACE project, in order to catch up with the development trend of international gravity measurement, my country has also begun to explore the construction of an advanced gravity satellite system for independent intersatellite laser interferometry. Due to the high-precision requirements of space detection, all countries have adopted the intersatellite laser interferometric ranging technology as the basic methodology of signal detection on the basis of optimized comparison.
星间激光干涉的方法学对激光的准直性有很高的要求,但是由于空间环境的复杂性,卫星受到外界因素(譬如大气扰动,太阳风和太阳辐射等)的干扰,航天器发出的激光在出射方向上会发生抖动,这种指向误差会直接影响最终的测距精度。指向误差对测量相位的影响:The methodology of interstellar laser interference has high requirements on the collimation of the laser, but due to the complexity of the space environment, the satellite is interfered by external factors (such as atmospheric disturbance, solar wind and solar radiation, etc.), the laser emitted by the spacecraft Jitter will occur in the outgoing direction, and this pointing error will directly affect the final ranging accuracy. The effect of pointing error on the measured phase:
其中:in:
指向误差引起的测相误差; Phase measurement error caused by pointing error;
λ:激光波长;λ: laser wavelength;
d:波前曲率误差;d: wave front curvature error;
D:望远镜接收直径;D: receiving diameter of the telescope;
θdc:指向静态偏转误差;θ dc : pointing static deflection error;
δθ:激光指向抖动。δθ: Laser pointing jitter.
减小波前曲率误差能提高测距精度,但在一定的加工工艺下,波前曲率误差为定值。望远镜直径的减小能够降低相位误差,但会引起接收光功率的减弱,增加了散粒噪声并提高了光探测的难度。而提高激光指向控制的精度是降低指向相位误差的有效方法。Reducing the wavefront curvature error can improve the ranging accuracy, but under a certain processing technology, the wavefront curvature error is a constant value. Reducing the diameter of the telescope can reduce the phase error, but it will cause the weakening of the received optical power, increase the shot noise and increase the difficulty of light detection. Improving the precision of laser pointing control is an effective way to reduce the pointing phase error.
对于先进重力测量项目而言,双星间距约100Km,轨道高度约300-400Km,处于低真空环境中,受大气扰动较为严重,同时其它非保守力的扰动也十分复杂。根据先进重力场测量项目激光干涉测距精度要求,在信号频率段0.1mHz-0.1Hz,激光指向控制精度需优于这就要求激光指向控制系统须具备动态范围大、控制精度高、控制频率高等性能要求;而对于空间引力波探测计划而言,虽然引力波探测卫星处于深空,外界扰动小,但双星间距非常遥远,约为100万公里,双星接收到的激光干涉信号非常微弱,这对激光指向控制精度提出更高的要求与挑战,需要在1mHz-1Hz的信号频率段内实现优于的激光指向控制精度。因此,激光指向控制已成为制约先进重力卫星和空间引力波探测的重要技术瓶颈。For the advanced gravity measurement project, the distance between the two stars is about 100Km, and the orbital height is about 300-400Km. It is in a low-vacuum environment and is seriously disturbed by the atmosphere. At the same time, the disturbance of other non-conservative forces is also very complicated. According to the advanced gravitational field measurement project laser interferometric ranging accuracy requirements, in the signal frequency range of 0.1mHz-0.1Hz, the laser pointing control accuracy should be better than This requires that the laser pointing control system must have performance requirements such as large dynamic range, high control precision, and high control frequency; and for the space gravitational wave detection plan, although the gravitational wave detection satellite is in deep space and the external disturbance is small, the distance between the two stars is very large. Far away, about 1 million kilometers, the laser interference signal received by the double star is very weak, which puts higher requirements and challenges on the accuracy of laser pointing control, and needs to achieve better than Laser pointing control accuracy. Therefore, laser pointing control has become an important technical bottleneck restricting the detection of advanced gravity satellites and gravitational waves in space.
在国外,空间引力波探测和先进重力测量项目的关键技术主要由德国eLISA/NGO研究小组负责研发。先前eLISA/NGO小组将主要精力投入在相位计、激光干涉仪和无拖曳控制等研究领域,激光指向控制系统的研究滞后,尚处于计算机模拟和预研究阶段,致使即将于2015年发射的LISA-Path-finder卫星都无法进行指向控制技术的测试。Abroad, the key technologies of space gravitational wave detection and advanced gravity measurement projects are mainly developed by the German eLISA/NGO research group. Previously, the eLISA/NGO group focused on the research fields of phase meter, laser interferometer and dragless control. The research on the laser pointing control system lagged behind and was still in the stage of computer simulation and pre-research. As a result, the upcoming LISA- None of the Path-finder satellites were able to test pointing control technology.
我国的空间引力波探测及先进重力卫星研究起步较晚,其中空间激光精密测量的激光指向控制系统研究尚未开展。但中国科学院已将重力场测量及引力波探测列入中长期发展规划,拟在未来七到十年的时间内达到具有100公里空间分辨力和1mGal量级的重力场分布,及实现测距精度的空间激光干涉系统,为未来引力波探测和先进重力场测量项目奠定基础。但我国现有卫星姿态控制技术指标为需同步发展激光指向控制技术,以满足空间激光干涉测距要求。我国在激光通讯、目标跟踪及军事用途等应用领域的激光瞄准和指向控制有一定的技术积累。它们多采用成像法或四象限光电探测器中心与光斑中心重合法作为测角方法学,其精度一般在左右,远达不到空间引力波探测和先进重力卫星的测量要求。因此,激光指向控制已成为我国空间引力波探测及先进重力卫星发展的技术瓶颈。my country's space gravitational wave detection and advanced gravity satellite research started relatively late, and the research on the laser pointing control system for space laser precision measurement has not yet been carried out. However, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has included gravity field measurement and gravitational wave detection in the medium and long-term development plan, and plans to achieve a gravity field distribution with a spatial resolution of 100 kilometers and a magnitude of 1mGal in the next seven to ten years, and realize The space laser interferometry system with ranging accuracy will lay the foundation for future gravitational wave detection and advanced gravitational field measurement projects. However, my country's existing satellite attitude control technical indicators are Simultaneous development of laser pointing control technology is required to meet the requirements of space laser interferometric ranging. my country has accumulated a certain amount of technology in laser aiming and pointing control in the application fields of laser communication, target tracking and military use. They mostly use the imaging method or the coincidence method of the center of the four-quadrant photodetector and the center of the spot as the angle measurement methodology, and its accuracy is generally in the range of Left and right, it is far below the measurement requirements of space gravitational wave detection and advanced gravity satellites. Therefore, laser pointing control has become a technical bottleneck for my country's space gravitational wave detection and the development of advanced gravity satellites.
