Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of microwave communication technology and filter technology, and in particular relates to a magnetic tuning method and device suitable for an electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter. Background Art
[0002] A filter is a frequency-selective device that can select the desired signal and suppress useless and interfering signals. Cavity filters have the characteristics of good stability, moderate Q value (in-band loss / input power), and good heat dissipation, and are widely used in modern microwave and millimeter wave communications. Out-of-band suppression performance is an important parameter of cavity filters, and the out-of-band suppression performance is generally improved by introducing a transmission zero point. Among them, the electromagnetic hybrid coupled cavity filter developed in recent years can introduce a transmission zero point with a simple physical structure, and has the characteristics of compact structure and superior performance. However, cavity filters, including electromagnetic hybrid coupled cavity filters, are very sensitive to manufacturing tolerances. In order to achieve the pre-designed electrical performance indicators, performance testing and adjustment are required during the final assembly process.
[0003] Conventional cavity coaxial filters rely on electrical adjustment. This involves introducing a tuning screw in the dense electric field area (above the cover) and adjusting the filter's resonant frequency and coupling bandwidth by manipulating the screw's movement. However, this adjustment method only affects the electrically dominant coupling in electromagnetic hybrid-coupled coaxial cavity filters, making it difficult to achieve the desired electrical performance. Currently, there are no reports on magnetic coupling adjustment methods for electromagnetic hybrid-coupled coaxial cavity filters. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above technical deficiencies and provide a magnetic tuning method suitable for electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filters, aiming to enrich the tuning methods and devices of electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filters.
[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: a tuning method for an electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter, based on an electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter, the electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter comprising: a metal resonant cavity, a cover plate, and a metal resonant rod; the metal resonant cavity is a three-dimensional (cylindrical, rectangular, etc.) geometric shape, the cover plate is located on the top of the metal resonant cavity, making the metal resonant cavity a closed space; a metal resonant rod is provided inside the metal resonant cavity, and the metal resonant rod is not limited to cylindrical, cubic, or irregular shapes. A gap is left between the upper end of the metal resonant rod and the metal resonant cavity, forming an open-circuit end; the lower end of the metal resonant rod is directly connected to the metal resonant cavity, forming a short-circuit end;
[0006] In the electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter, one or more groups of adjacent metal resonant rods form coexisting electric coupling dominant regions and magnetic coupling dominant regions;
[0007] The electric coupling-dominant region of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter is formed by coupling the open-circuit ends between adjacent cavities, and the magnetic coupling-dominant region is formed by coupling the short-circuit ends between adjacent cavities.
[0008] The implementation of the open-circuit end coupling and the short-circuit end coupling is not limited to the resonant cavity itself being provided with or introducing an additional electromagnetic hybrid coupling circuit.
[0009] The electric coupling dominant region strength and the magnetic coupling dominant region strength of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter can be respectively expressed by the electric coupling coefficient k e and the magnetic coupling coefficient k m Numerical representation.
[0010] The electrical coupling coefficient k e By formula Extraction, magnetic coupling coefficient k m By formula extract.
[0011] The transmission zero point position of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter can be determined by the ratio of the electric coupling coefficient to the magnetic coupling coefficient. To regulate.
[0012] When the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter is tuned using the magnetic tuning method of the present invention, the magnetic coupling coefficient change ratio is large, while the electric coupling coefficient change ratio is small or basically does not change.
[0013] The magnetic tuning method of the electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter is as follows:
[0014] The electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter is prepared, and a groove or a hole is opened in the magnetic coupling dominant area of the coaxial cavity filter, and the groove depth or the hole depth penetrates the cavity wall.
[0015] The slot or hole position is not limited to the lower bottom plate of the cavity, and the slot or hole can be made near the magnetic coupling dominant area. The magnetic tuning device extends from the slot or hole position into the interior of the resonant cavity through a mechanical structure. The larger the area of the magnetic tuning device extending into the interior of the resonant cavity, the more obvious the effect on the magnetic coupling dominant area, and the greater the change in the magnetic coupling coefficient. The total coupling coefficient of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter is determined by the ratio of the electric coupling coefficient to the magnetic coupling coefficient; adjusting the magnetic coupling coefficient can adjust the total coupling coefficient of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter. The present invention aims to enrich the tuning method and device of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter.
[0016] Prepare a tuning device. The tuning device is not limited to various tuning devices such as a tuning metal plate or a tuning screw. The following description takes the tuning metal plate as an example.
[0017] Prepare a metal plate, which is not limited to rectangular, semicircular and other shapes. The thickness of the metal plate is required to be as small as possible under the existing process and must be smaller than the width of the slot in the magnetic coupling dominant area of the above-mentioned coaxial cavity filter cavity.
[0018] The form of the metal plate is not limited to a metal plane plate structure, and may also be other three-dimensional geometric shapes.
[0019] The metal plate is driven by a fixed structure and a screw-in pushing structure. The fixed structure ensures that the metal plate is supported during the adjustment process and does not fall; the screw-in pushing structure sends the metal plate into the coaxial cavity filter and acts on the magnetic coupling dominant area in the cavity. At this time, the larger the area where the metal plate enters, the smaller the magnetic field coupling intensity, thereby achieving the magnetic tuning effect of the electromagnetic hybrid coupling coaxial cavity filter.
[0020] The fixing structure is not limited to fixing methods such as screws, nuts, glue, and welding.
[0021] The screwing structure is not limited to the propulsion methods of screw, hand push, piston, etc. The hardware of the method of the present invention constitutes a tuning device.
[0022] Beneficial effects: Compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0023] 1. The tuning methods of electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filters are enriched.
[0024] 2. Due to limitations in machining precision, mass-produced coaxial cavity filters may exhibit suboptimal electrical performance due to large errors. Previously, this was achieved through electrical coupling adjustment, but this is no longer applicable to electromagnetic hybrid-coupled coaxial cavity filters, forcing them to be reworked or scrapped. The present invention enables a wider range of magnetic coupling tuning methods, achieving the desired effect.
[0025] 3. The present invention can be used in conjunction with the electric tuning screw method to greatly improve the tuning range of the electromagnetic hybrid coupled coaxial cavity filter. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
