DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a multi-channel output radio frequency amplifier provided by an embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1The multi-channel output RF amplifier device includes at least one RF input terminal 10, a power divider 20, two phase paths 30, a combiner 40 and two RF output terminals 50. At least one RF input terminal 10 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the power divider 20, and the two output terminals of the power divider 20 are electrically connected to the two phase paths 30 respectively. The two phase paths 30 are electrically connected to the two input terminals of the combiner 40, and the two output terminals of the combiner 40 are electrically connected to the two RF output terminals 50. The power divider 20 is used to divide the RF input signals of different RF input terminals 10 into different RF signal groups, and the RF signal group includes two RF signals with equal amplitudes and a phase difference of 90°. The phase path 30 is used to transmit the RF signal, and the combiner 40 is used to synthesize the two RF signals of the RF signal group into one RF output signal, and output it through the corresponding RF output terminal 50.

[0038] For details, see Figure 1 , the power divider 20 can be a 90° power divider, and the corresponding combiner 40 can be a 90° combiner. That is, the power divider 20 can divide the RF input signal input by the RF input terminal 10 into two RF signals with equal amplitude and 90° phase difference, and transmit them to the two input terminals of the combiner 40 through two output terminals and two corresponding electrically connected phase paths 30. The combiner combines the two RF signals into one RF output signal and outputs it through the RF output terminal 50. On the basis of the above embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention is provided with at least one RF input terminal 10 and two RF output terminals 50. According to the different connection modes between the RF input terminal 10 and the input terminal of the power divider 20, the power divider 20 can divide the RF input signal input by the RF input terminal 10 into different RF signal groups. Exemplarily, the power divider 20 includes two input terminals and two output terminals. When the RF input terminal 10 is electrically connected to the first input terminal of the power divider 20, the two output terminals of the power divider 20 output the first RF signal group, and transmit them respectively through the two corresponding electrically connected phase paths 30. When the RF input terminal 10 is electrically connected to the second input terminal of the power divider 20, the two output terminals of the power divider 20 output the second RF signal group and transmit them respectively through the two corresponding electrically connected phase paths 30. The transmission path of the two RF signals in the first RF signal group is different from the transmission path of the two RF signals in the second RF signal group.

[0039] The two input ends of the combiner 40 are electrically connected to the two phase paths 30, and then after receiving the RF signal group, the two RF signals of the RF signal group are synthesized into a RF output signal, and output through the corresponding RF output end 50. For example, after receiving the first RF signal group at the two input ends of the combiner 40, the first RF output signal is synthesized and output through one of the two RF output ends 50. After receiving the second RF signal group at the two input ends of the combiner 40, the second RF output signal is synthesized and output through the other of the two RF output ends 50. In this way, different RF signal groups are output by cooperating with the two input ends of the power divider 20 through at least one RF input end 10, and the RF signals in different phase paths 30 are switched, so that the channel selection of different RF output ends 50 is realized, that is, the channel selection of one input and multiple outputs or multiple inputs and multiple outputs is realized, which can reduce the chip area and production cost compared with multiple independent amplifier chains. In addition, since the embodiment of the present invention does not need to set a signal selection switch to realize multi-channel output, the link insertion loss can be improved, and the power and efficiency of the multi-channel output RF amplifier device can be improved.

[0040] In summary, the multi-channel output RF amplifier device of the embodiment of the present invention includes at least one RF input terminal, a power divider, two phase paths, a combiner and two RF output terminals. At least one RF input terminal is electrically connected to the input terminal of the power divider, and the two output terminals of the power divider are electrically connected to the two phase paths respectively. The two phase paths are electrically connected to the two input terminals of the combiner, and the two output terminals of the combiner are electrically connected to the two RF output terminals. The power divider is used to divide the RF input signals of different RF input terminals into different RF signal groups, and the RF signal group includes two RF signals with equal amplitudes and a phase difference of 90°. The phase path is used to transmit the RF signal, and the combiner is used to synthesize the two RF signals of the RF signal group into an RF output signal, and output it through the corresponding RF output terminal. In this way, by switching the RF signals in different phase paths, the channel selection of one input and multiple outputs or multiple inputs and multiple outputs is realized, which can reduce the chip area and production cost compared with multiple independent amplifier links. And since the embodiment of the present invention does not need to set a signal selection switch to achieve multi-channel output, it can improve the link insertion loss and improve the power and efficiency of the multi-channel output RF amplifier device.

[0041] Optionally, based on the above embodiment, Figure 2 This is a circuit diagram of the working process of a multi-channel output radio frequency amplifier provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

The two phase paths 30 include a first phase path 310 and a second phase path 320, and the two RF output terminals 50 include a first RF output terminal 510 and a second RF output terminal 520. The first RF input terminal 110 is electrically connected to the first input terminal of the power divider 20, the second RF input terminal 120 is electrically connected to the second input terminal of the power divider 20, the first output terminal of the power divider 20 is electrically connected to the first input terminal of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310, the second output terminal of the power divider 20 is electrically connected to the second input terminal of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320, the first output terminal of the combiner 40 is electrically connected to the first RF output terminal 510, and the second output terminal of the combiner 40 is electrically connected to the second RF output terminal 520.

[0042] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, a two-input two-output multi-channel output RF amplifier is used as an example for description. Among them, at least one RF input terminal 10 includes a first RF input terminal 110 and a second RF input terminal 120. The two RF output terminals 50 include a first RF output terminal 510 and a second RF output terminal 520. The two phase paths 30 include a first phase path 310 and a second phase path 320. In the first working mode, as Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, when the first RF input terminal 110 sends an RF input signal to the first input terminal of the power divider 20, the power divider 20 divides the RF input signal into a first RF signal group, the first RF signal group includes a first RF signal and a second RF signal, wherein the first RF signal is transmitted to the first input terminal of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310, and the second RF signal is transmitted to the second input terminal of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320. The combiner 40 synthesizes a first RF output signal according to the first RF signal transmitted by the first phase path 310 and the second RF signal transmitted by the second phase path 320, and outputs it through the first RF output terminal 510, thereby controlling the output of the first RF output terminal 510 through the first RF input terminal 110.

[0043] In yet another embodiment, Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of another working process of a multi-channel output radio frequency amplifier device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 and Figure 3The embodiment shown is the second working mode of the two-input two-output multi-channel output RF amplifier device. In the second working mode, when the second RF input terminal 120 sends the RF input signal to the second input terminal of the power divider 20, the power divider 20 divides the RF input signal into a second RF signal group, and the second RF signal group includes a first RF signal and a second RF signal, wherein the second RF signal is transmitted to the first input terminal of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310, and the first RF signal is transmitted to the second input terminal of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320. The combiner 40 synthesizes the second RF output signal according to the second RF signal of the transmission phase of the first phase path 310 and the first RF signal transmitted by the second phase path 320, and outputs it through the second RF output terminal 520, thereby controlling the output of the second RF output terminal 520 through the second RF input terminal 120.

[0044] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the phase of the first RF signal is 0°, and the phase of the second RF signal is 90°, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first RF signal and the second RF signal may also be other combinations.

[0045] It is understandable that the RF signal received by the first input end of the combiner 40 in the first working mode is different from the RF signal received by the first input end of the combiner 40 in the second working mode, and the RF signal received by the second input end of the combiner 40 in the first working mode is different from the RF signal received by the second input end of the combiner 40 in the second working mode. Furthermore, in the first working mode and the second working mode, the output end of the combiner 40 outputs different RF output signals, thereby realizing multi-channel output. It should also be noted that the first working mode and the second working mode cannot be performed simultaneously.

[0046] Optional, Figure 4 This is a circuit diagram of the working process of another multi-channel output radio frequency amplifier provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 This is another circuit diagram of the working process of a multi-channel output radio frequency amplifier provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 and Figure 5, at least one RF input terminal 10 includes a third RF input terminal 130. The multi-channel output RF amplification device also includes a switch unit 60. The two phase paths 30 include a first phase path 310 and a second phase path 320, and the two RF output terminals 50 include a first RF output terminal 510 and a second RF output terminal 520. The third RF input terminal 130 is electrically connected to a first terminal of the switch unit 60, a second terminal of the switch unit 60 is electrically connected to a first input terminal of the power divider 20, a third terminal of the switch unit 60 is electrically connected to a second input terminal of the power divider 20, a first output terminal of the power divider 20 is electrically connected to a first input terminal of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310, a second output terminal of the power divider 20 is electrically connected to a second input terminal of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320, a first output terminal of the combiner 40 is electrically connected to a first RF output terminal 510, and a second output terminal of the combiner 40 is electrically connected to a second RF output terminal 520.

[0047] Specifically, Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the embodiment shown, a multi-channel output RF amplifier with one input and two outputs is used as an example for description. Among them, at least one RF input terminal 10 includes a third RF input terminal, and the two RF output terminals 50 include a first RF output terminal 510 and a second RF output terminal 520. The two phase paths 30 include a first phase path 310 and a second phase path 320. Figure 4 The embodiment shown is the first working mode of a multi-channel output RF amplifier device with one input and two outputs. In the first working mode, the first end and the second end of the switch unit 60 are turned on, and the third RF input end 130 is turned on with the first input end of the power divider 20, that is, the third RF input end 130 sends the RF input signal to the first input end of the power divider 20. At this time, the power divider 20 divides the RF input signal into a first RF signal group, and the first RF signal group includes a first RF signal and a second RF signal. Specifically, the first RF signal divided by the power divider 20 is transmitted to the first input end of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310, and the second RF signal divided by the power divider 20 is transmitted to the second input end of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320. The combiner 40 synthesizes the first RF output signal according to the first RF signal of the first phase path 310 transmission phase and the second RF signal transmitted by the second phase path 320, and outputs it through the first RF output end 510, thereby controlling the output of the first RF output end 510 through the third RF input end 130.

[0048] like Figure 5The embodiment shown is the second working mode of a multi-channel output RF amplifier device with one input and two outputs. In the second working mode, the first end and the third end of the switch unit 60 are turned on, and the third RF input end 130 is turned on with the second input end of the power divider 20, that is, the third RF input end 130 sends the RF input signal to the second input end of the power divider 20. At this time, the power divider 20 divides the RF input signal into a second RF signal group, and the first RF signal group includes a first RF signal and a second RF signal. Specifically, the first RF signal divided by the power divider 20 is transmitted to the second input end of the combiner 40 through the second phase path 320, and the second RF signal divided by the power divider 20 is transmitted to the first input end of the combiner 40 through the first phase path 310. The combiner 40 synthesizes the second RF output signal according to the second RF signal transmitted by the first phase path 310 and the first RF signal transmitted by the second phase path 320, and outputs it through the second RF output end 520, thereby controlling the output of the second RF output end 520 through the third RF input end 130. Thus, in the one-input two-output multi-channel RF amplifier device, the first working mode and the second working mode are switched by the switch unit 60, so that the output end of the combiner 40 outputs different RF output signals, that is, multi-channel output is achieved.

[0049] Optionally, based on the above embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The phase path 30 includes a first phase path 310 and a second phase path 320.
