基于里德伯原子的长波授时信号高保真接收OA

High-fidelity reception of long-wave timing signals based on Rydberg atoms

中文摘要英文摘要

里德伯原子对长波电信号具有高灵敏接收能力,是解决地基长波授时系统在边远区域因信号微弱导致授时性能下降的关键技术途径.然而,在里德伯原子的电场测量中,罗兰-C信号面临原子气室静电屏蔽效应和倍频噪声引起的保真度下降问题.本研究采用双光子方案制备里德伯态原子,结合调制转移光谱(MTS)和电磁诱导透明(EIT)频率稳定系统以及馈入强直流场的内置平行极板气室,实现对罗兰-C信号的高保真接收,单脉冲保真度为98.0%、包周差为0.08 μs;接收脉冲组奇偶周期信号并展示其相位反转特性.本研究为里德伯原子接收解调长波授时信息提供关键技术支撑,有望推动高灵敏度长波授时信号监测评估体系发展.

Rydberg atoms exhibit exceptional sensitivity to long-wave electric fields,presenting a promising solution to the signal degradation that plagues ground-based long-wave time-service systems in remote or weak-signal regions.However,practical Loran-C signal reception using Rydberg-atom sensors is currently limited by fidelity deterioration,primarily caused by electrostatic shielding from vapor cell walls and frequency-doubling noise.In this work,we prepare Rydberg atoms via a two-photon excitation scheme and integrate them with a modulation transfer spectroscopy(MTS)and electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)frequency-stabilization system.By employing a parallel-plate vapor cell subjected to a strong DC bias field,we leverage the DC Stark effect to precisely control the EIT resonance frequency shift,thereby overcoming the aforementioned limitations.This approach enables high-fidelity reception of Loran-C signals,accompanied by comprehensive time-and frequency-domain analyses.Quantitative measurements demonstrate a single-pulse fidelity of 98.0%and an envelope cycle difference(ECD)of 0.08 μs.Furthermore,by extracting and comparing the phase-reversal character-istics of odd-and even-period pulse trains,we rigorously verify the phase stability of the Rydberg-atom antenna.This work provides a robust technical foundation for the reception and demodulation of long-wave time-service signals using Rydberg-atom sensors,paving the way for next-generation,high-sensitivity monitoring and evaluation systems in navigation and timing infrastructure.
