Description

[0002] With the growing demand for satellite broadband services, the bandwidth of satellite communication signals has also expanded from tens of kHz to hundreds of MHz. In order to ensure the efficient output of wireless signals, it is necessary to use an analog up-converter to shift the frequency of the intermediate frequency communication signal, and use a power amplifier to amplify the power of the RF communication signal, and input the high-power RF communication signal to the transmitting antenna. In the case of large bandwidth and high gain, the in-band flatness of the frequency conversion and power amplifier channels is difficult to guarantee through hardware. The broadband RF communication signal usually has large amplitude fluctuations and distortions in the band, and the EVM index (Error Vector Magnitude) of the signal will be significantly deteriorated. If no corresponding compensation is performed, it may cause demodulation difficulties at the receiving end. In response to the deterioration of the signal quality of broadband RF communication signals caused by the frequency conversion and power amplifier channels, most existing methods choose to use iterative algorithms to design high-order compensation filters to complete the compensation of signal flatness, or perform channel estimation based on the signal pilot sequence to complete the channel filtering of frequency domain synchronous correction.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes a method for improving the EVM of a broadband radio frequency communication signal, by collecting the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the broadband radio frequency communication signal, combining the relative relationship between the signal bandwidth, the sampling rate and the sampling interval, taking the inverse of the in-band amplitude-frequency response vector of the signal to obtain the amplitude-frequency response of the digital compensation filter, performing IFFT processing on the amplitude-frequency response of the digital compensation filter, obtaining the time domain coefficient of the digital compensation filter, comprehensively considering the size of the logic resources occupied by the digital compensation filter and its compensation performance, while reducing the Gibbs effect caused by time domain truncation, performing time domain windowing and then truncation processing, and using the digital compensation filter coefficients of the lower order after truncation to digitally filter the baseband signal, the baseband signal after digital compensation filtering can effectively compensate for the unevenness of the broadband radio frequency communication signal caused by the analog up-converter and the power amplifier, and improve its EVM index.

[0042] The above method is applicable to communication signals of any bandwidth and RF frequency, as well as any FPGA chip, and does not require hardware modification of the analog up-converter and power amplifier. Assume that the signal bandwidth is B and the frequency of the RF communication signal is f c , the digital compensation filter is at F s The baseband signal is filtered at the sampling rate, such as Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps of the broadband RF communication signal EVM improvement method are as follows:
