Problems solved by technology

[0005] Using the traditional analog automatic level control method, the circuit is more complicated, the debugging workload is heavy, and the loop stabilization time is longer, mainly manifested in:
[0006] 1) The traditional analog automatic level control method needs to add logarithmic amplification and compensation circuits in order to make the detection level correspond to the reference level in proportion. Analog circuits are also used in the comparison and integration with the reference level. The entire system hardware The circuit is more complicated, the cost is higher, and the technical requirements for the hardware circuit are higher;
[0007] 2) In order to realize the normal operation of the logarithmic amplifier circuit in the entire analog power range, the traditional analog automatic level control method needs to increase the logarithmic inflection point and detection offset compensation, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the linearity at both ends of the range, that is, when the large signal and small signal are input. Therefore, manual debugging is required for the differences of each machine, and the process is cumbersome, which affects the efficiency of system debugging;
[0008] 3) The traditional analog automatic level control method uses the comparison result of the reference level to adjust the linear modulation voltage of the signal path through the analog integration link. According to the difference of the integration bandwidth, the response speed of the control voltage is different, generally at the μs level, which affects the Steady speed at final power

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of signal sources and particularly discloses an automatic digitalized level control method. The automatic digitalized level control method includes the following steps that a signal generated by a signal source output circuit enters a detector and a detection voltage is generated; the detection voltage enters an analog to digital converting (ADC) circuit to be subjected to ADC sampling processing to form a digital signal which is sent to a field programmable gate array (FPGA) circuit, the digital signal is amplified and subjected to logarithm operation in the FPGA circuit to obtain voltage data which form a linear relation with power reference voltage data that are stored in the FPGA circuit, and then the voltage data are directly compared with the power reference voltage data; a compared result is subjected to proportional conversion to enter a digital to analog converting (DAC) circuit to be converted into an analog control voltage; the analog control voltage is fed back to the signal source output circuit by a driver, and power fixed amplitude control over the signal source output circuit can be achieved. According to the automatic digitalized level control method, accurate output control over a general signal source within a certain power range can be achieved by a simple hardware circuit design.
