[0003] Ferrite circulator isolators are passive devices widely used in 4G\5G communication systems. Due to the nonlinear effect of ferrite materials, it is easy for the device to generate alternating current at its intermodulation frequency point when multiple high-power signals are input. Modulation signals, especially at the third-order inter-frequency modulation points such as 2f1-f2 and 2f2-f1, because their frequencies are very close to the center frequency point, it is difficult to eliminate them by adding filters, so it often affects communication quality and system solutions. adversely affect
The traditional passive intermodulation suppression method is usually a qualitative analysis of the device. Based on experience and experimental verification, there are usually multiple iterations of device design, which is time-consuming and laborious.

Abstract

The invention discloses a passive intermodulation suppression method for a circulator for communication. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) determining a frequency band and a power indexof a circulator to be machined, and an expected PIM value expected to be reached under the power index; (2) establishing a simulation model of the circulator in HFSS simulation software, and obtaining maximum field intensities A and B at (2f<1>-f<2>) and (2f<2>-f<1>) under the power index; (3) calculating a PIM value of the simulation model according to the A and the B, and marking the PIM valueas a simulation PIM value; and (4) comparing the simulation PIM value with the expected PIM value, and adjusting the structure of the simulation model in the HFSS simulation software according to a comparison result until conditions are met. According to the method of the invention, the determinant causing the passive intermodulation of the circulator is determined; and a method for quantitativelyanalyzing the passive intermodulation index of the circulator by using the determinant is provided; and the method is also suitable for other gyromagnetic ferrite material-based microwave passive devices with three-order passive intermodulation inhibition requirements.
