文摘The system time of the four major navigation satellite systems is mainly maintained by multiple high-performance atomic clocks at ground stations.This operational mode relies heavily on the support of ground stations.To enhance the high-precision autonomous timing capability of next-generation navigation satellites,it is necessary to autonomously generate a comprehensive space-based time scale on orbit and make long-term,high-precision predictions for the clock error of this time scale.In order to solve these two problems,this paper proposed a two-level satellite timing system,and used multiple time-keeping node satellites to generate a more stable space-based time scale.Then this paper used the sparse sampling Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)algorithm to improve the accuracy of clock error long-term prediction on space-based time scale.After simulation,at sampling times of 300 s,8.64×10^(4) s,and 1×10^(6) s,the frequency stabilities of the spaceborne timescale reach 1.35×10^(-15),3.37×10^(-16),and 2.81×10^(-16),respectively.When applying the improved clock error prediction algorithm,the ten-day prediction error is 3.16×10^(-10) s.Compared with those of the continuous sampling LSTM,Kalman filter,polynomial and quadratic polynomial models,the corresponding prediction accuracies are 1.72,1.56,1.83 and 1.36 times greater,respectively.
