Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of radio frequency front-end modules, and specifically, to a method and device for constructing a radio frequency front-end module, and a radio frequency front-end module. Background Art
[0002] With the advancement and development of communication technology, RF front-end modules have become core components in communication systems. The RF switch in the RF front-end module is used to control the on and off of multi-band RF signals. The circuit performance of the RF switch will directly affect the performance of the transceiver system in the entire RF front-end module.
[0003] In the prior art, the design of the RF front-end module is to design the RF switch and the signal processor such as the filter separately. The RF switch adopts the SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator, i.e. silicon on an insulating substrate) CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) process.

The traditional RF front-end module adopts the method of adding a matching circuit between the signal processor such as the filter and the RF switch to reduce the return loss of the circuit, improve the signal strength of the received or transmitted signal, and solve the impedance mismatch problem between the RF switch and the filter. However, the addition of the matching circuit not only increases the volume of the RF front-end module, but also increases the design difficulty, design cycle, and cost of the RF front-end module.

[0056] Step S206, adjusting the parameters of the device to be adjusted to obtain a target RF front-end module including a target signal processor and the target RF switch, wherein the target RF front-end module maintains the target impedance over the entire frequency band.

Therefore, the problem of the large volume of the RF front-end module can be solved, and the volume effect of the RF front-end module can be reduced.
[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned method for constructing the RF front-end module can be but is not limited to being applied to plug-ins, software, applications, etc. with the function of constructing the RF front-end module.

The optimization process is completed, so that the overall model of the filter (i.e., the above-mentioned target signal processor) and the switch equivalent circuit (i.e., the above-mentioned target RF switch) maintains the target impedance in the entire frequency band.
[0104] In an optional embodiment, an example of a switch equivalent circuit of a target RF switch in a RF front-end module is provided. Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a switch equivalent circuit of a target RF switch in a RF front-end module according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 6 As shown, the RF front-end module may include but is not limited to a switch equivalent circuit of a signal processor Filter and a target RF switch (may include but is not limited to a resistor R1, a capacitor C1, a capacitor C2 and a ground terminal GND), the RF signal may enter through the RFIN port but is not limited to being output through the RFOUT port, may adjust but is not limited to the parameters of the device to be adjusted in the signal processor Filter so that the structure of the signal processor Filter and the target RF switch is not changed, may be substituted by the resistor R1, the capacitor C1 and the capacitor C2 for joint simulation with the signal processor, so that the switch equivalent circuit of the signal processor Filter and the target RF switch jointly outputs the target impedance.

Figure 7 is a flowchart of a construction process of a radio frequency front-end module according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 7 As shown, the process may include but is not limited to the following steps:
[0106] Step S702: establishing a schematic diagram and a layout of a switch MOS tube circuit structure (target RF switch) without adding a matching circuit, and simulating the layout to determine the switch circuit structure and layout at this time.
[0107] Step S704: extract parasitic parameters of the equivalent circuit models of the switch on branch and the switch off branch according to the S parameters of the switch layout, and use the RC lumped element network (target RC lumped element circuit) to equate the switch MOS tube model.
[0108] Step S706: construct a filter model (initial signal processor) in the simulation software, and simulate the filter to maintain the target impedance in the entire frequency band of the filter.
[0109] Step S708: The designed filter (initial signal processor) and the equivalent circuit model of the switch (target RF switch) are simulated together in the simulation software. Due to the existence of parasitic parameters of the switch, the filter and the switch cannot be well matched at this time. Therefore, the overall output of the model of the filter and the switch equivalent circuit cannot obtain the target impedance.
[0110] Step S710: Under the condition that the internal structure of the filter model is not changed, the adjustable variables in the filter are determined, and the parameter values of the adjustable variables are defined.
[0111] Step S712: Add target and optimization controls in the simulation software, use the software's built-in target value (GOAL) and optimization function (Optimize) to optimize the filter S parameters, set the target value and optimization variables, and use the simulation software's Optimize function to automatically optimize until the target value is approached and the optimization process is completed, so that the overall model of the filter and switch equivalent circuit maintains the target impedance in the entire frequency band.
[0112] Step S714: Determine the optimized filter parameters and complete the design of the filter and the switch.
[0113] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of S parameters obtained by simulating an initial signal processor according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 8 As shown, the initial signal processor that is not connected to the target RF switch can be simulated separately, but is not limited to, to obtain the insertion loss and return loss of the initial signal processor. S(2, 1) and S(2, 2) are the S parameters of the initial signal processor obtained when the parameters of the device to be adjusted of the initial signal processor are not adjusted and the target RF switch is not connected; S(4, 3) and S(4, 4) are the S parameters of the signal processor when the initial signal processor is connected to the target RF switch (which can be but is not limited to the switch MOS tube model for an equivalent target RC lumped element circuit) and the parameters of the device to be adjusted of the initial signal processor are adjusted.
[0114] According to S(2, 1), S(2, 2), S(4, 3) and S(4, 4), the electrical performance of the signal processor in the RF front-end module remains basically unchanged. Therefore, the expected RF front-end module function can be achieved only through the signal processor and the target RF switch without adding a matching circuit, thereby reducing the matching circuit between the RF switch and the filter (signal processor) in the RF front-end module, thereby reducing the volume of the RF front-end module.
[0115] Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a target RF front-end module simulation according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the initial signal processor with adjusted parameters is simulated together with the target RF switch, that is, the target RF front-end module including the target signal processor and the target RF switch is simulated to obtain the S parameter curve of the target RF front-end module. At this time, the overall impedance of the target RF front-end module maintains the target impedance, and the target impedance can be but is not limited to the target impedance of the target RF switch, 50Ω.
[0116] Fig.10 is a schematic diagram of a target signal processor simulation according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.10As shown, the target signal processor in the target RF front-end module with the parameters of the device to be adjusted is simulated separately. S(2, 1) and S(2, 2) are the S parameters of the initial signal processor before the parameters of the device to be adjusted are not adjusted, and S(4, 3) and S(4, 4) are the S parameters of the target signal processor after the parameters of the device to be adjusted are adjusted. Therefore, by comparison, it can be seen that the impedance of the signal processor is not matched at this time.
[0117] It can be seen that the filter designed using this method makes full use of the parasitic parameters of the RF switch. The RF switch is designed first, without considering its parasitic parameters, and the filter that meets the electrical performance requirements is designed. Then the RF switch and the filter are designed as a whole so that they can meet the electrical performance index requirements and the overall impedance maintains the standard impedance.
