Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of radio frequency communication technology, and in particular to an automatic radio frequency matching control system and a base station system and method. Background Art
[0002] Antennas are crucial for radiating energy from wireless communication devices, such as base stations. In some outdoor base stations and wireless communication systems, external antennas are often used to facilitate deployment and increase coverage. RF signal transmission requires that the impedance of each transmission node, including the base station interface, RF cables, and antennas, be 50 ohms, ensuring lossless RF signal transmission. However, during installation and deployment, antennas and transmission cables are often affected by environmental factors, mounting structure factors, and process factors, resulting in a mismatch between the actual connection and the base station. This impedance mismatch causes the RF signal output by the base station to be transmitted back to the base station. This not only damages the base station's power unit but also reduces the actual output power, thereby decreasing the base station's signal coverage.

[0058] Example 1
[0059] Embodiment 1 of the present invention discloses an automatic radio frequency matching control system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system is applied between a base station 500 and an antenna 600, and includes: a power detection switching unit 100, a matching circuit 200, a power detection circuit 300 and a controller 400;
[0060] The power detection switching unit 100 is used to connect to the base station 500, and the power detection switching unit 100 is connected to the matching circuit 200, and the matching circuit 200 is used to connect to form a radio frequency signal transceiver channel;
[0061] The power detection circuit 300 is connected to the power detection switching unit 100 to detect the power loss of the radio frequency signal passing through the power detection switching unit 100;
[0062] The controller 400 is connected to the power detection circuit 300 and the matching circuit 200 respectively to adjust the matching circuit 200 based on the power loss to achieve impedance matching. Specifically, for example, a preset mapping table can be used to adjust the impedance to achieve impedance matching.
[0063] This solution uses a power detection switching unit 100 to ensure the transmission and reception of RF signals while also detecting the RF power of the matching end return loss. Impedance matching is achieved through the adjustable inductor 210 and adjustable capacitor 220 in the matching circuit 200. The power detection circuit 300 detects the RF power of the matching end return loss. The controller 400 then controls the automatic matching circuit 200 based on the detected RF power of the matching end return loss. Adjustments are made to achieve the RF power that minimizes the matching end return loss. This achieves impedance matching between the base station 500 and the antenna 600, resolving the issue of mismatching after the antenna 600 is installed.
[0064] Example 2
[0065] like Figure 2As shown, embodiment 2 of the present invention discloses an automatic radio frequency matching control system. Based on the embodiment, it is further defined that the power detection switching unit 100 includes: a coupler 110; wherein the coupler 110 is provided with 4 ports; wherein port 1 is connected to the base station 500, port 2 is connected to the matching circuit 200, port 3 is connected to a preset grounded inductor, and port 4 is connected to the power detection circuit 300.
[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, the power detection switching unit 100 includes a coupler 110. The operating principle of the coupler 110 is as follows: When the TX / RX (transmit / receive signals) output by the base station 500 pass through the coupler 110 to the matching circuit 200, there is insertion loss passing through the coupler 110. The coupling end of the coupler 110 is connected to the power detection circuit 300. When the antenna 600 impedance is mismatched, return loss is generated from the antenna 600 toward the second interface of the coupler 110. After passing through the coupler 110, this return loss power generates coupled power at the fourth interface of the coupler 110. The power detection circuit 300 detects the magnitude of the return loss coupled power.
[0067] The advantages of this embodiment are: simple solution, few components, relatively low cost; and generally applicable to high-power systems.
[0068] Example 3
[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, embodiment 3 of the present invention discloses an automatic radio frequency matching control system, which is further limited on the basis of embodiment 1, wherein the power detection switching unit 100 includes: a first radio frequency switch 121, a second radio frequency switch 122 and a circulator 123;
[0070] One end of the first RF switch 121 is connected to the base station 500 , and the other end of the first RF switch 121 and one end of the second RF switch 122 form two paths, one of which is provided with the circulator 123 ;
[0071] The other end of the second RF switch 122 is connected to the matching circuit 200;
[0072] The circulator 123 is connected to the power detection circuit 300 .
[0073] like Figure 3 As shown, in this solution, two RF switches and a circulator 123 are used. When base station 500 is first powered on, controller 400 (e.g., a central processing unit (CPU)) switches the first RF switch 121 and the second RF switch 122 to the circulator 123 path. This path automatically achieves impedance matching. Once matching is complete, the path is switched to the path without the circulator 123, enabling normal RF transmission and reception.
[0074] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the operating principle of circulator 123 is as follows: when an RF signal enters port 1, it is output from port 2; when an RF signal enters port 2, it is output from port 3; and when an RF signal enters port 3, it is output from port 1. Signals passing through circulator 123 experience insertion loss. The amount of this loss is determined by the characteristics of circulator 123.
[0075] Therefore, when the impedance of antenna 600 is mismatched, return loss is generated from antenna 600 through second RF switch 122 toward the second port of circulator 123. The return loss power of antenna 600 passes through the second RF switch and then loops through the second port of circulator 123 to the third port. The return loss is detected by power detection circuit 300.
[0076] Advantages of this solution: The insertion loss of the circulator 123 and the RF switch is very small, so the power of the return loss is basically all detected by the power detection circuit 300, so the actual power detected is relatively high.
[0077] Example 4
[0078] Embodiment 4 of the present invention discloses an automatic radio frequency matching control system, which is further defined based on Embodiments 1-3, wherein the power detection circuit 300 includes a Maxim MAX2206 power detection chip.
[0079] Specifically, the power detection circuit 300 detects return loss power. Therefore, it is a device for detecting RF power. For example, the Maxim MAX2206 power detection chip can be used. It measures the return loss RF signal strength and converts it into a voltage between 0 and 2.5V. The output of the MAX2206 is connected to the controller 400. Furthermore, the controller 400 includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is connected to the power detection circuit 300.
[0080] Specifically, for example, the output end of MAX2206 can be connected to an ADC (analog-to-digital converter) of a CPU (central processing unit) to convert a 0-2.5V voltage into a digital value.
[0081] In addition, if Figure 4 As shown, the matching circuit 200 includes: an adjustable inductor 210 and an adjustable capacitor 220; wherein the adjustable inductor 210 is connected in series between the power detection switching unit 100 and the antenna 600; one end of the adjustable capacitor 220 is connected to the adjustable inductor 210, and the other end of the adjustable capacitor 220 is grounded;
[0082] The adjustable inductor 210 and the adjustable capacitor 220 are both connected to the controller 400 .
[0083] Specifically, the matching circuit 200 is designed as a π-shaped circuit, usually using a series inductor and a parallel capacitor to ground, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0084] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are two adjustable capacitors 220 , which are located on both sides of the adjustable inductor 210 .
[0085] In a specific embodiment, the adjustable capacitor 220 is a digital adjustable capacitor 220 .
[0086] Furthermore, the adjustable capacitor 220 is a digital adjustable capacitor 220 with a model number of PE64904.
[0087] Specifically, to achieve automatic matching, the matching capacitors and inductors must be digitally controlled, with the controller 400 adjusting their parameters. Therefore, a 5-bit, 32-state digitally adjustable capacitor 220, model PE64904, can be used. Its capacitance is controlled via a 3-wire serial SPI interface. The capacitance value of a series-connected capacitor in the circuit is 0.7-4.6pF, while the capacitance value of a parallel-connected capacitor is 1.12-5.18pF. All decoding and configuration are integrated within the chip, eliminating the need for additional bypass and filtering components, making it well-suited for this solution.
[0088] In addition, if Figure 5 As shown, the adjustable inductor 210 includes a third RF switch 211 and a plurality of inductor units 212;
[0089] The third RF switch 211 is connected to the controller 400 ; one end of the third RF switch 211 is provided with a first contact, and the other end is provided with a plurality of second contacts;
[0090] A plurality of the inductance units 212 are connected in series to obtain an inductance group;
[0091] The first contact is connected to an endpoint on one side of the inductor group, one second contact is connected to an endpoint on the other side of the inductor group, and the remaining second contacts are respectively connected to points between two adjacent inductor units 212 in the inductor group. Different second contacts are connected to different points, so that the inductance can be adjusted through the connection between the first contact and different second contacts.
[0092] Specifically, the digital adjustment of the inductance can be achieved by using the interaction between the radio frequency switch and the inductor. Figure 6As shown, when the third RF switch 211 is connected to port 2, no inductor is connected to the circuit. When the RF switch is controlled to connect ports 1 and 3, the L6 inductor (also known as the inductor unit 212, and the other L1-L5Y are also inductor units 212) is connected to the circuit for matching. When ports 1 and 4 are connected, the L5 and L6 inductors participate in the circuit matching.

[0097] Step S101: transmitting a radio frequency signal in the automatic radio frequency matching control system;
[0098] Specifically, the radio frequency signal here is a simulated TX (transport) radio frequency signal of a base station.
[0099] Step S102: Acquire echo data through the controller 400, where the echo data includes an ADC value corresponding to the return loss, and an inductance value and a capacitance value corresponding to the ADC value;
[0100] Step S103: adjusting the capacitance and inductance in the matching circuit 200 through the controller 400, and acquiring echo data obtained after the adjustment;
[0101] Step S104: selecting echo data with the smallest ADC value from the plurality of echo data, and taking the inductance value and capacitance value in the selected echo data as a matching result;
[0102] Step S105: stop transmitting the radio frequency signal;
[0103] Step S106: configuring the matching circuit 200 based on the matching result by the controller 400;
[0104] Step S107: Turn on the base station.
[0105] Specifically, in a specific application scenario, the method includes the following steps:
[0106] (1) Startup and system initialization
[0107] (2)CPU controls the transmission of TX radio frequency signal.
[0108] (3) The ADC interface of the CPU detects the current return loss power value.
[0109] (4) The CPU controls the digitally adjustable capacitor and adjustable inductor through digital interfaces such as SPI and GPIO to adjust the matching value.
[0110] (5) Each time an adjustment is made, read the ADC interface detection value.
[0111] (6) Traverse all possible matching solutions and compare the detected return loss values. Take the minimum ADC value (return loss value).
[0112] (7) The matching solution with the minimum value is used as the final matching solution and recorded in the CPU.
[0113] (8) The matching is completed and the system operates normally.
[0114] In addition, for the different structures of the above-mentioned embodiment 2 and embodiment 3, the corresponding methods are also different. For example, the control method of the structure of embodiment 2 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the control method of the structure in Example 3 is as follows Figure 8 This solution can achieve automatic matching between the base station and the antenna, effectively solving the mismatch problem after the antenna is installed, and is low-cost.
[0115] In this regard, an embodiment of the present invention proposes an automatic RF matching control system and a base station system and method, which are applied between a base station 500 and an antenna 600.

Specifically, in this solution, the power detection switching unit 100 ensures the transmission and reception of RF signals while also detecting the RF power of the matching end return loss. Impedance matching is achieved through the adjustable inductor 210 and adjustable capacitor 220 in the matching circuit 200. The power detection circuit 300 detects the RF power of the matching end return loss. The controller 400 then controls the automatic matching circuit 200 based on the detected RF power of the matching end return loss. Adjustments are made to achieve the RF power with the minimum matching end return loss. This achieves impedance matching between the base station 500 and the antenna 600, resolving the issue of mismatching after the antenna 600 is installed.
