Problems solved by technology

But this type of circuit requires 2 n (n∈N * ) with the same power amplifier, power distribution and recombination, the loss is large, the volume is large, and it is difficult to realize the ultra-wideband bridge
2. Reduce the harmonic components in the operating frequency band of the power amplifier by selecting a die process with good linearity, suitable static bias circuit points, and high linearity design. However, there are many restrictions on the design of this method, such as power and efficiency. and other indicators are pinned down, and the harmonics in the working frequency band have little improvement
For power amplifiers such as 6-18GHz, the second harmonic of 6-9GHz cannot be filtered out (otherwise useful signals are filtered out at the same time)
[0005] The application publication number is CN110120789A, the application publication date is August 13, 2019, and the application publication date is April 08, 2015. The application publication number is CN104506143A. The Japanese invention patent "A Higher Harmonic Suppression Circuit of Radio Frequency Power Amplifier" involves a matching circuit for suppressing harmonics of power amplifiers, but they can only suppress harmonics outside the working frequency band. For power such as 6-18GHz Amplifier, the second harmonic of 6-9GHz cannot be filtered out (otherwise useful signals are filtered out at the same time)
[0006] Shortcomings of the prior art closest to the present invention: the harmonics in the operating frequency band of the power amplifier are difficult to suppress; the existing cross-octave power amplifiers that suppress the harmonics in the operating frequency band usually use multi-channel amplifiers after the finished chip is ready. Suppress harmonics through bridge synthesis, or extract harmonic signals for separate processing, large volume and complex structure design is difficult, and the scope of application is relatively limited

Abstract

The invention discloses a traveling wave type cross-octave power amplifier for suppressing harmonic waves in a working frequency band, a plurality of LC switch resonance structures are connected in parallel on a drain electrode line of the traveling wave type amplifier, when a switch is switched on, the LC switch resonance structures and part of the drain electrode line form a band elimination filter, a low-frequency fundamental wave signal smoothly passes through the band elimination filter, and the harmonic waves of the low-frequency fundamental wave signal are suppressed; when the switch is switched off, the traveling wave amplifier is equivalent to a common traveling wave amplifier. Through the control switch, the function of harmonic suppression in the working frequency band of the cross-frequency-multiplication power amplifier is achieved, and complex segmentation processing on the harmonic in the working frequency band on the system level is avoided. The invention has the advantages of wide frequency band, high harmonic suppression degree in the working frequency band, easiness in implementation and the like, and is worthy of popularization in the industry.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave integrated circuits, and relates to a traveling-wave cross-octave power amplifier for suppressing harmonics in a working frequency band. Background technique: [0002] The power amplifier is the core component in microwave communication, electronic detection and other systems. Its main function is to amplify the microwave signal to the required power level. It works in a saturated state and has strong nonlinearity, that is, it is useful in amplification. The signal will generate n harmonics at the same time. Harmonics not only reduce efficiency, but also become interference signals. The nonlinear characteristic is an inherent characteristic of the semiconductor die, which is mainly related to the static operating point, output power, and matching state of the die, and its formation mechanism is complex. We use high-order polynomials to approximate the nonlinear function of the device to descr...
