摘要

在地球上,需要一个大口径望远镜来实现深空光通信链路所需的大量数据速率。然而,大型望远镜不仅非常昂贵,而且在大口径下也很难达到接近衍射极限的性能。一组相对较小的望远镜组合在一起形成一个更大的合成孔径是一个可行的和有效的替代大型单片望远镜。然而,望远镜阵列的性能需要在一定的限制因素下进行研究,如湍流、跟踪误差等。本文分析了跟踪误差对望远镜阵列性能的影响。模拟了火星与地球上的望远镜阵列接收器之间的深空光通信链路。在接收端采用闭环跟踪系统,以消除随机跟踪误差。蒙特卡罗仿真结果表明,在跟踪误差下,望远镜阵列的性能可以非常接近相同总光子采集面积的大型单片望远镜的性能。因此,望远镜阵列是深空光通信的一种经济有效的替代方案。

Effect of Tracking Errors on Performance of Telescope Arrays Receiver for Deep Space Optical Communication
On Earth, a large aperture telescope is required to achieve the substantial data rates needed for a deep space optical communication link. However, not only are large telescopes very costly but, it is also very difficult to attain near diffraction limited performance with large apertures. An array of relatively smaller sized telescopes combined to form a larger synthesized aperture is a viable and efficient alternative to a large monolithic telescope. However, the performance of telescope arrays needs to be investigated under certain limiting factors such as turbulence, tracking errors etc. In this paper, we analyze the impact of tracking errors on the performance of telescope arrays. A deep space optical communication link between Mars and a telescope array receiver on earth is simulated. A closed loop tracking system is employed at the receiver end to cater for the random tracking errors. Monte Carlo Simulation results show that, under tracking errors the performance of telescope arrays can reach very close to that of a large monolithic telescope with the same total photon collecting area. Hence, telescope arrays are a cost-effective alternative for deep space optical communication.
