Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communications, and in particular to a control method for a parallel-structured high-efficiency envelope tracking power supply. Background Art
[0002] Mobile communications have developed rapidly in the past few decades, bringing great convenience to people's lives and becoming an important industry for global economic development. The construction of a large number of base stations ensures network coverage, but it also causes the electricity costs of communication operators to increase exponentially. On the one hand, the current full-load power consumption of a single 5G base station is about 4kW, which is equivalent to 3 times that of a 4G base station; on the other hand, in the future, the number of 5G base stations will also greatly exceed that of 4G base stations. Therefore, it is very important to reduce the energy consumption of mobile communication base stations.
[0003] After the third generation (3G) mobile communication system, high spectrum efficiency modulation methods such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) have been widely adopted. This type of modulation method makes the envelope of the RF signal no longer constant and presents a large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). At this time, in order to amplify the RF signal without distortion, a linear power amplifier (LPA) is required to amplify its power. However, the constant voltage powered LPA is inefficient in the power back-off area. At present, the technologies to improve PA efficiency mainly include Doherty technology and envelope tracking (ET) technology. Among them, Doherty technology requires the use of a main power amplifier and an auxiliary power amplifier to work together, which is costly. In addition, since the auxiliary power amplifier uses a nonlinear power amplifier, the linearity at the peak of the RF signal is poor and the operating frequency band is narrow. ET technology can work in any frequency band. By detecting the envelope of the RF signal and using it as a reference signal for the power modulator, the output voltage of the power modulator tracks the reference signal and supplies power to the LPA, so that the LPA always works in a state close to saturation, thereby improving the efficiency of the LPA. The power modulator is the so-called ET power supply, which is the core of ET technology.
[0004] With the development of wireless communication technology, the RF envelope bandwidth continues to increase, so the ET power supply needs to have a higher tracking bandwidth. The original intention of the ET power supply is to improve the efficiency of the power amplifier system, and as a part of the system, its own efficiency should also be high. The switch-linear hybrid (SLH) ET power supply integrates the advantages of high efficiency of the switching converter and high bandwidth of the linear amplifier, and has become the mainstream architecture of the ET power supply. The parallel structure SLH ET power supply is composed of a current-controlled led switched-mode converter (CSC) working in the form of a current source and a voltage-controlled linear amplifier (VLA) working in parallel. Among them, the output current of the CSC fits the load current to reduce the output current of the VLA, thereby reducing the loss of the VLA. However, when the output voltage swing is large, the output power of the VLA is still large, which limits the improvement of the overall efficiency of the parallel structure SLH ET power supply. Summary of the invention

Figure 2 (b) shows the first power tube Q u And the second power tube Q d The voltage waveform. From formula (1), we can see that when i vLA is greater than zero and the load voltage v o When the first power tube Q u The loss is large; when i VLA is less than zero and v o When it is larger, the second power tube Q d Therefore, in order to reduce the loss of VLA, it is expected that when v o When it is smaller, i VLA is less than zero, that is, the output current of CSC is greater than the load current, so that the second power tube Q d Management work; and when v o When it is larger, i VLA is greater than zero, that is, the output current of CSC is less than the load current, so that the first power tube Q u The first power tube Q u And the second power tube Q d The current values are approximately equal, then when V in -v o >v o , that is, v o <V in / 2, the second power tube Q d The loss is less than the first power tube Q u loss; when V in -v o <v o , that is, v o >V in / 2, the second power tube Q d The loss is greater than the first power tube Qu Therefore, v o =V in / 2 or i o =V in / 2R Ld As the mode switching point of the two power tubes. For the convenience of description, V in / 2R Ld Defined as i int . Figure 2 (c) in the figure shows the first power tube Q that can be satisfied by the present invention. u And the second power tube Q d The key current waveform of time-sharing operation is CSC Fitting i in a way similar to a triangular wave current o , so this current control method is defined as triangular wave current control. o >i int When CSC o On the contrary, when i o int When CSC >i o .

[0062] Among them, f s and S Q They are respectively represented as the sampling frequency and the control signal of the switch tube Q, S Q =1 and S Q =0 means the switch is on and off, v o is the load voltage of the ET power supply.
[0063] First, determine i o and i int In t i1 Time and t i2 The intersection point i i1 and i i2 , at t i1 Moment, i o Gradually increase, in order to make i CSC Fitting o , let S Q =1, predict the rising trajectory of the inductor current. v1 Moment, find satisfaction o >i int The valley point i v1 , change i iv1 The value of S is reduced by 2% and used as the starting point. Q =0, reverse prediction i CSC The downward trajectory of Q =1, forward prediction i CSC The rising trajectory of i2 As the starting point, let S Q = 0, calculate the falling trajectory of the inductor current. o int The peak point i p1 For example, let S Q =1, reverse prediction i CSC The rising trajectory of Q =0, prediction i CSC The intersection of the inductor current trajectory is the switch-on or switch-off moment of the switch tube. Finally, the inductor current i that meets the requirements is obtained. CSC And the control signal S of the switch tube Q Q .
[0064] It can be seen from the above description that the present invention has the following advantages:
[0065] 1. When the output voltage of the parallel structure SLHET power supply is high, the first power tube Q of VLA u work, on the contrary, the second power tube Q d Work to reduce the voltage that the two power tubes are subjected to when they are working, thereby greatly reducing the loss of VLA and improving the overall efficiency of the parallel structure ET power supply;
