[0039] Figure 6 This is a circuit structure diagram using specific components as an example in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0040] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0041] The inventors discovered that although binary amplitude shift keying (BPS) modulation has the advantages of simple circuit structure, low implementation cost, low power consumption, and no need for coherent local oscillator demodulation, when applied to the millimeter wave and terahertz frequency bands, its low-order modulation characteristics result in low bandwidth utilization. This makes it impossible to fully utilize the high channel capacity of the millimeter wave and terahertz frequency bands, thus limiting the realization of high communication transmission rates. In other words, it limits the application of binary amplitude shift keying in the millimeter wave and terahertz frequency bands.

[0042] The inventors also discovered that, in addition to the performance bottlenecks of the transmitter and receiver, the characteristics of the transmission channel also limit the realization of high communication rates during system data transmission.

[0043] To achieve high communication rates, low-loss, low-latency channels are being researched and applied. Further research by the inventors revealed that dielectric waveguide channels are widely studied and used in the millimeter-wave and terahertz frequency bands. (See reference...) Figure 1The communication transmission model shown is based on a dielectric waveguide channel. Tx represents the transmitter, and Rx represents the receiver. Both use dielectric waveguides to transmit communication signals.

[0044] Compared to free-space channels, dielectric waveguides exhibit lower transmission loss per unit distance and lower group delay ripple, thus providing a significantly superior high-speed transmission environment and reducing the design burden on transmitters and receivers. For example, at 100 GHz, a dielectric waveguide channel can easily achieve a transmission loss of 5 dB / m, with only -50 dB attenuation over a 10 m transmission distance, while free space suffers as much as -90 dB attenuation. This significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio at the receiver while maintaining the same transmit power.

[0045] In addition to low transmission loss, dielectric waveguides also exhibit low delay spread, thus demonstrating the potential for high-speed data transmission with no intersymbol interference. In the millimeter-wave and terahertz bands, the size of dielectric waveguides decreases with increasing frequency; for circular dielectric waveguides, the diameter is reduced to the 1mm level, facilitating integrated design and connection with systems. Especially in high-speed, short-range applications, the low loss and low delay spread characteristics of dielectric waveguides are widely used to achieve high signal-to-noise ratios and communication bandwidth, thereby reducing transceiver design costs while achieving high communication rates.

[0046] However, after further research, the inventors discovered that current research and applications of dielectric waveguides in the millimeter-wave and terahertz frequency bands almost exclusively focus on improving their loss and time-delay performance. To increase communication transmission rates, most applications employ higher-order modulation methods to enhance bandwidth utilization. However, higher-order modulation itself requires more complex modulation circuit designs and higher power consumption, which is detrimental to low-cost, low-power system designs.

[0047] For example: refer to Figure 2 The dielectric waveguide shown is currently used in transceiver integrated circuits based on orthogonal high-order modulation, representing a complex modulation circuit designed to improve communication transmission rates. High-frequency carriers are generated using frequency multiplication networks and orthogonal phase-shifting networks, and high-order orthogonal modulation is achieved by modulating the carrier using multi-level sequences. In millimeter-wave and terahertz band designs, multiple frequency multiplications are often required, necessitating multi-stage frequency multiplication circuit designs, resulting in higher circuit power consumption and area overhead. Furthermore, differential orthogonal phase-shifting designs in the millimeter-wave and terahertz bands require good differential and orthogonal characteristics, which are difficult to achieve in practical designs. Local oscillator leakage and image reflection issues also significantly impact this structure, often requiring additional auxiliary circuits for correction, increasing circuit design costs. While high-order modulation methods such as 16QAM and 64QAM can be implemented in practical applications to improve communication rates, the significantly increased circuit overhead makes it unsuitable for low-power applications, limiting its application scope.

[0048] The above research reveals that while the circuit structure improves communication transmission speed, its complexity and intricate control logic make it unsuitable for current development and usage demands. With the ever-increasing demand for high-speed communication applications such as 5G, maintaining the low-complexity characteristics of binary amplitude keying transmission while reducing costs and simultaneously improving system communication speed is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.

[0049] To address the aforementioned problems, the inventors have creatively proposed a binary amplitude-keying transmission method, antenna, and electronic device based on the dual-polarization characteristics of dielectric waveguides. This invention effectively solves the low-bandwidth utilization problem under low-order binary amplitude-keying modulation, thereby significantly improving the maximum achievable communication rate. The following provides a detailed explanation and description of the binary amplitude-keying transmission method, antenna, and electronic device based on the dual-polarization characteristics of dielectric waveguides proposed in this invention.

[0050] Reference Figure 3 The diagram illustrates a flowchart of a binary amplitude shift keying (APS-K) transmission method based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes:

[0051] Step 301: Generate a guided wave signal with binary amplitude shift keying (BSK) modulation and dual polarization characteristics based on binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics.

[0052] Based on existing applications of dielectric waveguides, the inventors have differentiated themselves from current research directions that focus on improving communication transmission rates by reducing loss and delay performance. Instead, they have creatively used the polarization characteristics of dielectric waveguides as a breakthrough point to improve communication transmission rates from this perspective.

[0053] For dielectric waveguides, which exhibit multimode transmission characteristics, taking polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as an example: its dominant mode HE11 consists of two orthogonal degenerate modes HE11. Y HE11 X ,like Figure 4 As shown, it can still maintain good orthogonality even when the dielectric waveguide is bent.

[0054] Based on this polarization characteristic, the inventors creatively proposed to achieve two independent modes of transmission by orthogonally exciting the dielectric waveguide with dual polarization, thereby realizing the multiplexing of the dielectric waveguide channel, doubling the communication capacity, significantly improving the communication rate, and almost without increasing the design cost of the transceiver circuit. This effectively solves the problem of low-frequency band utilization under low-order binary amplitude shift keying modulation.

[0055] First, for the transmitting end (which can generally be a transmitter or a circuit that performs the transmitter function), a guided wave signal with binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics can be generated based on binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics.

[0056] In one possible embodiment, the electromagnetic waves generated by the transmitting circuit can be modulated based on binary amplitude keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics, thereby generating guided wave signals that have binary amplitude keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics and can be transmitted in the X and Y directions.

[0057] Step 302: Radiation of the guided wave signal, and use the radiated signal to perform dual-polarization excitation on the dielectric waveguide to generate an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate mode transmission characteristics.

[0058] After obtaining the guided wave signal with binary amplitude shift keying modulation characteristics and dual polarization characteristics, it is necessary to radiate the guided wave signal, that is, to emit radiation. The reason for emitting radiation is to generate two orthogonal degenerate modes in the dielectric waveguide, so as to realize two independent mode transmissions. This is the only way to realize channel multiplexing of the dielectric waveguide.

[0059] Since radiation produces a radiated signal, the radiated signal can be used to excite the dielectric waveguide in a dual-polarization manner, thereby generating an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate mode transmission characteristics.

[0060] Specifically, guided wave signals can be radiated, and the radiated signals with binary amplitude keying modulation characteristics and dual polarization characteristics can be used to excite the dielectric waveguide in a dual polarization manner, thereby generating excitation signals for the X and Y directions of the HE11 mode.

[0061] Step 303: Transmit the excitation signal using a dielectric waveguide channel.

[0062] Since the dielectric waveguide is excited to generate two orthogonal degenerate modes, the excitation signal can be transmitted using these two orthogonal degenerate modes, which can provide dual-polarization transmission and realize channel multiplexing, thereby achieving high-speed data transmission while ensuring low-cost binary amplitude shift keying modulation.

[0063] Step 304: Receive radiation and convert the excitation signal into a guided wave signal.

[0064] After a dielectric waveguide transmits an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate modes through a dielectric waveguide channel, the receiving end (usually a receiver or a circuit that performs the receiver function) cannot directly process the excitation signal. Therefore, it is necessary to receive the radiation and convert the excitation signal into a guided wave signal before subsequent processing can be performed.

[0065] Step 305: Process the guided wave signal.

[0066] After receiving the guided wave signal at the receiving end, the guided wave signal is processed according to the conventional procedures or methods to realize the transmission and reception of communication signals.

[0067] It should be noted that in the above steps, both emitting and receiving radiation can be generated by an on-chip antenna or an off-chip antenna.

[0068] Based on the above-mentioned method of binary amplitude keying transmission with dielectric waveguide dual polarization, this invention also proposes an antenna based on binary amplitude keying transmission with dielectric waveguide dual polarization. This antenna can realize the method of binary amplitude keying transmission with dielectric waveguide dual polarization. In order to realize the above method, the antenna based on binary amplitude keying transmission with dielectric waveguide dual polarization includes: a transmitter, a receiver, a first dual polarization excitation unit, a second dual polarization excitation unit, and a dielectric waveguide.

[0069] The transmitting end (which can generally be a transmitter or a circuit that performs the transmitter function) is used to generate a guided wave signal with binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics based on binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics, and transmit it to the first dual polarization excitation unit.

[0070] The first dual-polarization excitation unit is used to radiate the guided wave signal and use the radiated signal to perform dual-polarization excitation on the dielectric waveguide, generating an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate mode transmission characteristics, which is then coupled into the dielectric waveguide channel.

[0071] The dielectric waveguide channel is used to transmit the excitation signal to the second dual-polarized excitation unit.

[0072] The second dual-polarization excitation unit is used to receive radiation and convert the excitation signal into a guided wave signal, which is then transmitted to the receiving end.

[0073] The receiving end (usually a receiver or a circuit that performs the receiver function) is used to process the received guided wave signals.

[0074] The aforementioned antenna based on binary amplitude keying transmission with dielectric waveguide dual polarization, combined with Figure 5 The transmission block diagram shown can be summarized as follows: Transmitter ( Figure 5 (Not shown in the image) Based on binary amplitude shift keying modulation and dual polarization characteristics, a guided wave signal with binary amplitude shift keying modulation characteristics and dual polarization characteristics is generated.

[0075] First dual-polarization excitation unit ( Figure 5The dual-polarization excitation unit shown on the left radiates the guided wave signal, and uses the radiated signal to perform dual-polarization excitation on the dielectric waveguide, generating an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate mode transmission characteristics. Figure 5 The left side of the middle section shows the V and H, which represent orthogonal degenerate modes and are coupled into the dielectric waveguide channel.

[0076] The dielectric waveguide channel transmits the excitation signal to the second dual-polarization excitation unit. Figure 5 (The dual-polarization excitation unit is shown on the right).

[0077] The second dual-polarization excitation unit receives radiation and converts the excitation signal ( Figure 5 The V and H signals, representing orthogonal degenerate modes, shown on the right, are converted into guided wave signals and transmitted to the receiving end. Figure 5 (Not shown in the image). Finally, the received guided wave signal is processed by the receiving end.

[0078] The method for realizing binary amplitude keying transmission based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization can be better understood by combining the explanation and description of steps 301 to 305 above.

[0079] It is understandable that the first dual-polarization excitation unit is specifically used to radiate the guided wave signal, using the guided wave signal with binary amplitude keying modulation characteristics and dual-polarization characteristics to dual-polarize excite the dielectric waveguide, generating excitation signals for the X and Y directions of the HE11 mode; the second dual-polarization excitation unit is specifically used to receive the radiation, receiving the excitation signals for the X and Y directions of the HE11 mode respectively, and converting the excitation signals for the X and Y directions of the HE11 mode to obtain guided wave signals with binary amplitude keying modulation characteristics and dual-polarization characteristics.

[0080] In this embodiment of the invention, since both the first and second dual-polarization excitation units need to possess radiation and dual-polarization functions, in one possible embodiment, both the first and second dual-polarization excitation units can be constructed from antennas with dual-polarization radiation capabilities. The designed antennas with dual-polarization radiation capabilities include: cross-tie antennas, circularly polarized antennas, dipole antennas, slot antennas, dielectric-loaded antennas, etc. All electronic components or circuit structures with radiation and dual-polarization functions can serve as the first and second dual-polarization excitation units. Furthermore, since both emitted and received radiation can be generated by on-chip or off-chip antennas, the first and second dual-polarization excitation units can be integrated on-chip or disposed off-chip, for example, disposed at any location on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) where the chip is located.

[0081] The circuit structure diagram of the aforementioned antenna based on dielectric waveguide dual-polarization binary amplitude keying transmission, using specific components as an example, is shown below. Figure 6 As shown. Figure 6 The transmitting end is denoted by Tx, and the receiving end by Rx. Specifically, the dielectric waveguide used is a Teflon circular waveguide (invented by chemist Dr. Roy J. Plunkett at DuPont's Jackson laboratory in New Jersey, USA; DuPont uses "Teflon" as the trademark for this product). A cross-shaped bowtie antenna (i.e., the first dual-polarization excitation unit) is placed between the transmitting end Tx and the Teflon circular waveguide, and a cross-shaped bowtie antenna (i.e., the second dual-polarization excitation unit) is also placed between the receiving end Rx and the Teflon circular waveguide. This circuit structure enables a binary amplitude keying transmission method based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization.

[0082] In this embodiment of the invention, the guided wave signal is radiated and then subjected to dual-polarization excitation of the dielectric waveguide. Through orthogonal dual-polarization excitation, two independent modes of transmission are achieved within the dielectric waveguide, thereby realizing channel multiplexing and effectively doubling the channel capacity of the dielectric waveguide. This significantly expands the channel capacity of the dielectric waveguide and improves the communication rate. This differs from current research that focuses on reducing loss and delay performance to improve communication transmission rates. Instead, it creatively uses the polarization characteristics of the dielectric waveguide as a breakthrough point to improve communication transmission rates from this perspective.

[0083] Based on the above-described method of binary amplitude keying transmission based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization, this embodiment of the invention also proposes an electronic device, which uses the binary amplitude keying transmission method based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization as described in any of steps 301 to 305 to realize the transmission and reception of communication signals.

[0084] In summary, the binary amplitude keying (ASK) transmission method based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization of the present invention first generates a guided wave signal with binary ASK modulation and dual polarization characteristics based on binary ASK modulation and dual polarization characteristics; then, the guided wave signal is radiated, and the radiated signal is used to excite the dielectric waveguide with dual polarization, generating an excitation signal with two orthogonal degenerate mode transmission characteristics; then, the excitation signal is transmitted using the dielectric waveguide channel; the receiving end needs to receive the radiation and convert the excitation signal into the guided wave signal generated by the transmitting end; finally, the guided wave signal is processed.

[0085] The binary amplitude shift keying (APS-K) transmission method based on dielectric waveguide dual polarization proposed in this invention achieves two independent modes of transmission through orthogonal dual polarization excitation, thereby realizing channel multiplexing of the dielectric waveguide and effectively doubling its channel capacity. This significantly expands the channel capacity of the dielectric waveguide, substantially increasing the communication rate without significantly increasing the transceiver circuitry. It effectively solves the low-bandwidth utilization problem under low-order binary APS-K modulation, thus effectively increasing the maximum achievable communication rate and demonstrating high practicality.
