Frequency synchronization detection method based on adaptive frequency standard tracking

Abstract

In order to achieve wide-band high-resolution frequency measurement, a frequency synchronization detection method based on adaptive frequency standard tracking is proposed based on the quantized phase processing. First, the nominal value of the measured frequency signal was obtained from the rough frequency measurement module. Then, the field programmable gate array generated the nominal value of the measured frequency. After that, the direct comparison between the tracking frequency and the measured signal was carried out. Finally, the group quantized processing module gave the final result according to the phase full-period change time. Experimental results showed that the method has a wide frequency measurement range and high accuracy and can obtain frequency stability of the order of 10−13/s.
