Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic testing method and system for a transmission characteristic of a microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator. The system comprises a small signal transmission characteristic testing system and a large signal transmission characteristic testing system; and the large signal transmission characteristic testing system includes a large signal power compression characteristic testing system and a large signal phase compression characteristic testing system. The automatic testing system is allocated flexibly, is suitable for automatically testing the transmission characteristic of various millimeter wave frequency sections, and can universally realize the automatic testing of the transmission characteristic of the microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator under the large signal condition and under the small signal condition; moreover, the invention also overcomes the trouble of lacking pf the large signal phase compression characteristic and the large signal power compression characteristic testing method and the automatic testing system in the domestic microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator at present, and avoids the defects, such as low efficiency, low precision, a plurality of uncertain factors and the like in the manual testing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of testing and measuring of solid-state electronics, and relates to an automatic testing method and system for transmission characteristics of a microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator. Background technique [0002] Since the microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator can achieve any combination of signal amplitude and phase, the microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator can simultaneously realize the joint modulation of the microwave / millimeter wave beam amplitude and phase, which can form a new type of microwave / millimeter wave active phased array system, that is, it can realize the functions of multi-digit digital attenuator chip and multi-digit digital phase shifter chip in the existing microwave / millimeter wave active phased array system at the same time. The advantage of this is that : 1) The microwave / millimeter wave vector modulator can obtain better amplitude-phase consistency in a wide frequen...
