Phase-locking loop with frequency-control sensitivity compensation ability

Abstract

Based on functional relation of a loop bandwidth value of phase lock loop with gain value of phase detector and gain value of voltage controlled oscillator (or sensitivity of controlling frequency), adjusting gain value of phase detector to compensate fluctuation of gain value of voltage controlled oscillator so as to make loop bandwidth value more stable.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a phase-locked loop (Phase-Locked Loop, PLL), in particular to a PLL capable of compensating frequency control sensitivity (Tuning Sensitivity), so as to obtain a more stable loop bandwidth (Loop Bandwidth). Background technique [0002] In a communication system, a PLL is a device used to generate an output signal with a specific phase and a specific frequency, and for this purpose, the loop bandwidth W of the PLL should be maintained as much as possible within the frequency range of the PLL input signal of interest smooth. [0003] Please refer to figure 1 , which shows a system block diagram of a conventional PLL 10 . The conventional PLL 10 includes a phase detector (Phase Detector) 12 , a loop filter (Loop Filter) 14 , a voltage controlled oscillator (Voltage Controlled Oscillator, VCO) 16 , and a frequency converter (Frequency Converter) 18 . The phase detector 12 simultaneously receives an input frequency f I...
