| الوصف: | In space laser communication, the wide divergence angle of beacon light leads to substantial spatial losses, compounded by background light and detector noise; this results in compromised precision in the detection of the beacon light position. To solve this problem, a high-precision detection technique and communication composite technology employing a four-quadrant detector (QD) with beacon spread-spectrum modulation are proposed. Pseudo-random sequences (PRNs) are employed to spread the beacon communication spectrum, with the spread-spectrum signal utilized to modulate the intensity of the transmitted beacon light at the transmitter end. At the receiver, QD photocurrent signals are cross-correlated with an identical PRN that is used for modulation. The strong auto-correlation properties of PRNs, which are uncorrelated with noise, enhance the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), enabling precise position detection and beacon communication under high-SNR conditions. Theoretical analysis is used to explore the effects of spreading gain on the sensitivity of system detection and the precision of position detection. The experimental results demonstrate that the beacon spread-spectrum modulation scheme effectively detects the position of the light spot. At a received optical power of −37 dBm and spreading sequence PRN depths of 1023, 127, and 31, the root-mean-square error (RMSE) values are 0.983 μm, 2.876 μm, and 7.275 μm, respectively. This corresponds to improvements of 14.96 dB, 10.29, dB, and 6.26 dB compared to direct detection precision (30.811 μm). Additionally, under an identical signal bandwidth, the sensitivity improves by 14.6 dB, 10.1 dB, and 6.4 dB, respectively. The proposed beacon spread-spectrum scheme mitigates the limitations of hardware reception sensitivity and position-detection precision, demonstrating its potential application in high-precision detection in long-distance interstellar laser communication. |
