JTMS v3.0: Possible New Mode for Meteor Scatter
|
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Transmitting
|
|
|
|
Type 1 messages are 72 user-information bits, source encoded as in
|
|
JT65. Convolutional FEC (K=32, r=1/2) increases the number of bits to
|
|
(72+31)*2 = 206; nine bits are sent twice, extending the array to 215
|
|
bits. These are interleaved by bit-reversal of index values. Then 43
|
|
sync bits are inserted, spread evenly so as to fall at positions 1, 7,
|
|
13, ... 253. Frame size is 258 bits: 215 information-carrying bits
|
|
and 43 sync bits. Frame duration is 129 ms.
|
|
|
|
Type 2 messages convey 4 user information bits (report, R+report, RRR,
|
|
73) encoded with a (15,4,8) block code, plus an 11-bit CRC derived
|
|
from MyCall + HisCall, encoded with the (16,11) extended Hamming code.
|
|
This makes for 31 information-carrying bits. They are interspersed
|
|
with 31 sync bits, making a frame of 62 bits and frame time 31 ms.
|
|
|
|
2. Modulation is BPSK at 2000 baud, 24 samples per symbol at 48000 Hz
|
|
asmple rate. The baseband waveform is built by inserting a tapered
|
|
sinc function for each bit, then multiplying by a 1500 Hz sine wave.
|
|
|
|
3. Receiving
|
|
|
|
a. Compute real-to-complex windowed FFTs, N=16384 (t=341 ms),
|
|
stepped by 8k (say). Zap birdies, remove frequency components
|
|
outside the range 300 - 2700 Hz, and convert to analytic
|
|
time-domain signal.
|
|
|
|
b. Square the complex signal, cx2=cx*cx, and compute N=8k FFT of
|
|
cx2 (resolution = 5.9 Hz). Look for carrier at 3000 + 2*DF Hz
|
|
+/- 2*Tol.
|
|
|
|
c. If carrier is found, measure frequency f and phase phi. Multiply
|
|
cx by exp(-twopi*i*f*t - phi) to recover the real baseband signal
|
|
x() to within a sign ambiguity.
|
|
|
|
d. Apply matched filter for the Tx pulse shape to x(). This is
|
|
essentially a rectangular BPF, -1000 to +1000 Hz ?
|
|
|
|
e. Establish PSK symbol sync (offset i0, 0 to nsps-1 samples) by finding
|
|
maximum of Sum(sum*sum) over groups of nsps consecutive samples.
|
|
|
|
f. Read off the soft symbols, sym(1:512), and compute CCF with 3
|
|
versions of the 43-bit sync vector (rotated by 0, 14, 29 out of
|
|
its 43 positions) and three of the 31-bit sync vector (rotated by
|
|
0, 10, 20 of 31).
|
|
|
|
g. If the best CCF abs(peak) exceeds a specified threshold, the
|
|
signal is detected and synchronized. Sign of peak resolves the
|
|
sign ambiguity.
|
|
|
|
h. For Type 1 messages: Gather the proper set of 215
|
|
information-carrying soft symbols. Form averages using the 9
|
|
extra symbols, reducing the number to 206; and remove
|
|
interleaving to re-order the symbols. Then run the fano232
|
|
decoder. If decoding fails, add soft symbols into an
|
|
accumulation array and (if nsum is 2 or more) try decoding the
|
|
average.
|
|
|
|
i. For Type 2 messages: Gather the proper set of 31 soft symbols.
|
|
Decode Nrpt using exhaustive search (find peak lag of ccf). For
|
|
the CRC, also do an exhaustive search -- and make sure that the
|
|
expected value is best (or in the top few, anyway).
