The output terminals of the plurality of operational amplifier units are electrically connected to the bias terminal of at least one trap circuit. The single-chip microcomputer outputs a DAC analog signal to drive the trap circuit to perform trap processing.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, the operational amplifier unit includes an operational amplifier, a tenth inductor L10, a third capacitor C3, a fourth capacitor C4, a seventh resistor R7, an eighth resistor R8 and a ninth resistor R9; the DAC output end is electrically connected to the in-phase input end of the operational amplifier, the power supply VBB is electrically connected to one end of the third capacitor C3 and one end of the tenth inductor L10 respectively, the other end of the tenth capacitor L10 is electrically connected to one end of the fourth capacitor C4 and the power supply end of the operational amplifier respectively, and the other end of the third capacitor C3 and the other end of the fourth capacitor C4 are grounded; the output end of the operational amplifier is electrically connected to one end of the seventh resistor R7 and one end of the eighth resistor R8 respectively, the other end of the eighth resistor is electrically connected to one end of the ninth resistor R9 and the inverting input end of the operational amplifier respectively, and the other end of the ninth resistor R9 is grounded; the other end of the seventh resistor R7 serves as the output end of the operational amplifier unit. The operational amplifier unit constitutes a in-phase proportional amplifier, and the amplification factor is determined by the ratio of the eighth resistor R8 to the ninth resistor R9.

[0056] like Figure 2As shown, the trap circuit includes a first inductor L1, a first resistor R1, a fourth inductor L4, a main trap unit and a branch trap unit; the main trap unit includes a first variable capacitance diode VT1, a first capacitor C1, a second inductor L2, a second resistor R2, a first diode D1 and a second diode D2, one end of the first inductor L1 is electrically connected to the input RF signal, the other end of the first inductor L1 is respectively electrically connected to one end of the second inductor L2 and one end of the first capacitor C1, the other end of the first capacitor C1 is respectively electrically connected to the cathode of the first diode D1, the cathode of the second diode D2 and one end of the second resistor R2, the other end of the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the anode of the first variable capacitance diode VT1, the cathode of the first variable capacitance diode VT1 is grounded, the other end of the second inductor L2 is respectively electrically connected to the anode of the first diode D1, the anode of the second diode D2, one end of the first resistor R1, the branch trap unit and one end of the fourth inductor L4 The branch trap unit includes a second varactor diode VT2, a third diode D3, a fourth diode D4, a fifth diode D5, a sixth diode D6, a third resistor R3 and a third inductor L3, an anode of the third diode D3 and an anode of the fifth diode D5 are electrically connected to the non-grounded end of the first resistor R1, a cathode of the third diode D3 is electrically connected to the cathode of the fifth diode D5, the cathode of the fourth diode D4, the cathode of the sixth diode D6 and one end of the third resistor R3, and the other end of the third resistor R3 is electrically connected to the anode of the second varactor diode VT2; an anode of the fourth diode, an anode of the sixth diode D6 and a cathode of the second varactor diode VT2 are grounded; bias ends of the first varactor diode VT1 and the second varactor diode VT2 are electrically connected to the output ends of different operational amplifier units, respectively. The single chip microcomputer modulates the first variable capacitance diode VT1 and / or the second variable capacitance diode VT2 through the output signal of the operational amplifier unit, so that the main path trap unit and the branch path trap unit resonate respectively.

In the figure, the first resistor R1 is connected to the reference ground of the first varactor VT1, and at the same time prevents the signal from leaking directly to the ground. The larger its resistance value, the smaller the circuit insertion loss, but at the same time it will affect the charging and discharging time of the first varactor VT1, resulting in a longer tuning time, so a suitable value needs to be selected. The second resistor R2 and the third resistor R3 are connected to the varactor diode respectively, preventing the signal from leaking from the bias circuit, and also affecting the tuning time.

Figure 4 The first two dashed boxes correspond to the first trap circuit. Figure 4 The last two dotted boxes correspond to the second trap circuit, and the structures of the two trap circuits are exactly the same.

When the number of trap circuits exceeds one, the trap frequency bands S of different trap circuits are the same or different: in two different trap circuits, the trap frequencies of the main trap units can be the same or different; the trap frequencies of two different branch trap units can be the same or different. That is, there is at least one trap frequency and at most four trap frequencies.

[0061] Embodiment 3: The present invention provides a digitally controlled electrically adjustable trap filter and a selection control method, comprising the following steps:

[0062] S1: Configure the digitally controlled electrically adjustable trap filter described in Example 1 or Example 2.

[0064] S3: The digital control circuit generates a first drive signal DAC1 which is amplified by the operational amplifier unit and drives the main notch unit of at least one notch circuit to perform independent notch processing on the notch frequency band of the input RF signal. The digital control circuit generates a second drive signal DAC2 which is amplified by the operational amplifier unit and drives the branch notch unit of at least one notch circuit to move the notch frequency point to outside the frequency band of the input RF signal.

[0065] S4: Start the vector network analyzer, obtain the frequency of the main notch unit of at least one notch circuit during frequency sweep and the magnitude of the first drive signal DAC1 and save them to form a frequency point F1-DAC1 signal pair; send the frequency point F1-DAC1 signal pair to the PC.

[0066] S5: The DAC2 signal generated by the digital control circuit causes the branch trap unit of at least one trap circuit to perform trap processing on the trap frequency band of the input RF signal, and at the same time causes DAC1 to drive the trap frequency point of the main trap unit of at least one trap circuit to move outside the frequency band of the input RF signal; using a vector network analyzer, respectively obtain the frequency of the branch trap unit of at least one trap circuit during frequency scanning and the size of the second drive signal DAC2 and save them to form a frequency point F2-DAC2 signal pair, and send the frequency point F2-DAC2 signal pair to the PC; for example, the single-chip microcomputer drives DAC1 and the operational amplifier unit to output a 0-22V bias signal to obtain the relationship between the trap frequency and the DAC1 value, and the relationship between the trap frequency and the DAC1 value.

[0067] S6: After the PC obtains the frequency-DAC1 signal pair and the frequency-DAC2 signal pair, it performs a segmented number selection operation to obtain the frequency and DAC1, DAC2 signals that meet the notch depth requirements when the main notch unit and the branch notch unit of at least one notch circuit perform notch processing simultaneously.

[0068] The specific content of step S6 is:

[0069] S60: Perform function fitting on the frequency point F1-DAC1 signal pair and the frequency point F2-DAC2 signal pair respectively, to obtain a function F1 (DAC1) between the notch frequency point and DAC1 when the main notch unit of at least one notch circuit is independently notched; and a function F2 (DAC2) between the notch frequency point and DAC2 when the branch notch unit of at least one notch circuit is independently notched;

[0070] S61: segment the set notch frequency band S of the digital control electric notch filter to form a number of continuous sub-notch frequency bands S1, S2, ...S n-1 ;

[0071] If the starting frequency and the ending frequency of the notch frequency band S are both integer multiples of 10 and 100 and can be equally divided, the frequency span range of each sub-notch frequency band is made equivalent; if the starting frequency or the ending frequency of the notch frequency band S is not an integer multiple of 10 and 100, or the starting frequency or the ending frequency is an integer multiple of 10 and 100 but cannot be equally divided, the frequency span range of each sub-notch frequency band at a non-head or end position is set to be equivalent, and the remaining part is used as the head sub-notch frequency band and the end sub-notch frequency band.

[0072] For example, the 225-678MHz notch filter frequency band cannot be divided into 100 equal parts, and can be divided into five segments: 225-300MHz, 300-400MHz, 400-500MHz, 500-600MHz, and 600-678MHz for selection. The middle sub-notch frequency band has a bandwidth of 100MHz; and the sub-notch frequency bands at both ends of the first segment are 75Mhz and 78MHz respectively.

[0073] S62: For each sub-notch frequency band, respectively obtain the DAC1 signal corresponding to the frequency point with the deepest notch depth between the starting position and the ending position of the sub-notch frequency band and its neighborhood of the function F1 (DAC1), which is recorded as DAC11, DAC12, ..., DAC1 n Similarly, for each sub-notch frequency band, the DAC2 signal corresponding to the frequency point with the deepest notch depth in the neighborhood of the starting position and the ending position of the sub-notch frequency band of the function F2 (DAC2) is obtained, which is recorded as DAC21, DAC22, ..., DAC2 n ;

[0076] DAC1 S =DAC1-△DAC1={DAC11-△DAC11, DAC12-△DAC12,…, DAC1 n -

[0077] △DAC1 n};

[0078] DAC2 S =DAC2+△DAC2={DAC21+△DAC21, DAC22+△DAC22,…, DAC2 n +

[0079] △DAC2 n}; △DAC1 and △DAC2 correspond to the deviation value of the center frequency point of the joint notch processing of each sub-notch frequency band and the intermediate frequency point when each sub-notch frequency band is acted upon by the main notch unit or the branch notch unit of at least one notch circuit alone.
