AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies require expensive equipment to simultaneously measure the power and phase of the electromagnetic field radiated by the antenna when calibrating radio frequency units, resulting in high production line costs and difficulty in quickly correcting phase errors under non-perpendicular orthogonal signals.
By using signals with different random phases and amplitudes to excite antenna elements, the radiated power is measured by a power meter and iterative convergence is performed to obtain amplitude and phase difference information. This method is suitable for testing group antenna package modules or RF modules, and only a single signal source device is needed to measure multiple RF units.
In the absence of phase information, signal solving is performed by measuring information and random microwave signals, which reduces measurement costs and enables rapid correction of the amplitude and phase difference information of RF units. It is suitable for testing group antenna package modules or RF modules.
