The clock reference unit 111 drives the direct digital frequency synthesizer 112 to generate a linear frequency modulation signal of 475-675 MHz. The linear frequency modulation signal passes through the 4-multiplier 113 and the bandpass filter 114 to obtain a linear frequency modulation signal of 1.9-2.7 GHz, which is input into the power divider 115. The power divider 115 divides the linear frequency modulation signal into two outputs, one of which is input into the first mixing module 12. After mixing and 12-multiplication processing, a linear frequency modulation signal with a frequency of 33.6 to 43.2 GHz can be obtained.

The intermediate frequency signal can be used as the input signal of the local oscillator frequency multiplication filter unit 165 of the millimeter wave receiving module 16. Through this design, there is no need to configure a local oscillator unit separately for the local oscillator frequency multiplication filter unit 165, which further reduces the volume and cost of the millimeter wave transceiver signal processing device 10.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present invention, the double-balanced mixer 161 mixes the echo signal received by the receiving antenna and the received local oscillator signal to obtain a first-stage intermediate frequency signal Fif1. The first-stage intermediate frequency signal Fif1 is passed through the surface acoustic wave filter 1621, the signal amplifier 1622, and the digitally controlled attenuator 1623 to achieve large dynamic range and high gain of the signal. The first-stage intermediate frequency signal Fif1 is then input into the IQ demodulator 163 for mixing with the signal output by the local oscillator frequency multiplication filter unit 165, and then passed through the differential amplifier 164 to obtain the second-stage differential intermediate frequency signal Fif2. Finally, the second-stage differential intermediate frequency signal Fif2 is input into the external millimeter wave imaging module for subsequent imaging processing.
