Orientation bridge based on coupling capacitor

Abstract

The invention provides an orientation bridge based on a coupling capacitor. The orientation bridge comprises a power division circuit and a coaxial balancer. The power division circuit comprises a first resistor, a first capacitor, a second resistor and a third resistor which are connected in series, a first port is connected with a third port via the first resistor and the first capacitor, and the third port is connected with a ground level via the second resistor and the third resistor. The coaxial balancer comprises a coaxial line and a magnetic ring sleeved with the coaxial line, the coaxial line comprises an outer conductor and an inner conductor, the first end of the outer conductor is connected with public ends of the second resistor and the third resistor, the first end of the inner conductor is connected with the first port, the first end of the outer conductor and the first end of the inner conductor jointly constitute a coaxial balance end. The second end of the inner conductor is an unbalanced end and connected with the second port, and the second end of the outer conductor is connected with the ground level. On the premise of keeping high-frequency characteristics unaffected, operation frequency of the orientation bridge is lower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microwaves, in particular to a directional bridge based on coupling capacitance. Background technique [0002] Directional bridges are widely used in phase shifting, power synthesis and distribution, power sampling, directional coupling, directional detection, and dynamic monitoring of signal sources. They are key components in microwave systems and test and measurement. Microwave systems and microwave measuring instruments face the current demand for broadband use, and also have higher requirements for the ultra-wideband performance of the directional bridge. The most typical signal directional separation scheme in general applications is a directional coupler based on a tapered coupling line, which can achieve multi-octave high-directional signal directional separation, but the electrical length is longer at low frequencies, and the length of the coupling line is limited. It is difficult to achieve a relatively ...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] It can be seen that the performance of the bridge is greatly affected by the fixed-ratio power-dividing characteristics of the power dividing circuit and the balance characteristics of the balun. Since the low-frequency characteristics of the balun are limited by the magnetic permeability of the magnetic core and its own volume, as the lower limit frequency decreases, the balance of the two circuits The balance characteristics of the output amplitude and phase deteriorate rapidly, and the two signals at the coupling end o
