Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cables, and in particular to a design method for a low-loss cable connector without a resonance point. Background Art

[0002] From home appliances to smartphones, computers, network equipment, etc., cable connectors play a vital role as important components for connecting and transmitting signals. Especially in applications such as high-definition video transmission, high-definition audio equipment, and computer network connections in home and office environments, the performance requirements for cable connectors are getting higher and higher. In order to ensure signal integrity and reduce signal interference and loss, the market demand for low-loss, resonance-free cable connectors is increasing. The quality of cable connectors directly affects the performance stability of the equipment, especially in the transmission of high-frequency signals. High-quality cable connectors can greatly improve the efficiency and stability of signal transmission between devices.

[0003] Most existing cable connectors use traditional impedance matching technology, which is usually based on a fixed impedance design and can meet the needs of ordinary low-frequency signal transmission. However, as the signal frequency increases, especially in high-frequency scenarios such as high-definition video and high-speed data transmission, the impedance matching of traditional connectors often leads to signal reflection and loss problems, which manifests as higher insertion loss and return loss. In addition, due to the simple structure of traditional connectors, they cannot effectively avoid the resonance phenomenon of high-frequency signals, resulting in resonance points in the frequency response, which not only affects the stability of the signal, but also increases the overall power consumption of the device.

[0063] Embodiment 1:

[0064] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a design method for a low-loss cable connector without a resonance point, comprising:

[0065] S1, based on the impedance continuity principle, the spiral gradient groove structure on the surface of the inner conductor is designed, the composite gradient impedance theoretical model of the connector is established, and the mapping relationship between the geometric parameters of the spiral gradient groove of the inner conductor and the equivalent impedance Z (x) is defined; the geometric parameters include the groove depth h, the spiral angle θ and the spiral period Λ;

[0067] S2, constructing a dielectric constant gradient distribution model of the double insulating layer and setting the transition function between the inner layer and the outer layer; wherein the inner layer radius is R1 and the outer layer radius is R2;

[0068] By setting the transition function between the inner layer and the outer layer, the continuous gradual change of the dielectric constant between the two layers is controlled to eliminate the electric field distortion at the interface.

[0069] S3, through electromagnetic-thermal coupling finite element simulation, solve the S parameters and electric field distribution of the connector, optimize the spiral angle θ and the gradient index n, so that the voltage standing wave ratio VSWR is lower than the first preset value and the insertion loss IL does not exceed the second preset value;

[0070] The electromagnetic field and thermal field coupling simulation technology is used to optimize the spiral groove geometric parameters and the gradient distribution of the insulation layer to ensure that the voltage standing wave ratio of the connector is lower than 1.1 within the target frequency band and the insertion loss does not exceed 0.15dB / m.

[0071] S4, establishing a quantitative model of conductor surface roughness and high-frequency loss, and determining a threshold range of surface roughness through calculation of the quantitative model;

[0072] A correlation model between conductor surface roughness and high-frequency loss is established, and the threshold range of surface roughness is determined through theoretical calculation to guide the plating process design to suppress the skin effect.

[0073] S5, structural parameters based on multi-objective genetic algorithm Perform global optimization, the objective function is , weight coefficients w1=0.5, w2=0.3, w3=0.2;

[0074] A multi-objective optimization algorithm is used to balance impedance matching, loss suppression and structural manufacturability to generate the optimal parameter combination that meets the requirements of no resonance point and low loss.

[0075] S6, outputs a report collection of theoretical design parameter sets and performance verification, which includes impedance distribution curves, electric field uniformity analysis results and full-band scattering parameter matrix.

[0076] It should be noted that the main part of the cable connector in this solution does not include the connection terminal part, but the part for connecting the cable connector to the cable, which is also the key position to ensure low-loss performance without resonance point.

[0077] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: first, a mapping model of the geometric parameters of the spiral gradient groove of the inner conductor and the equivalent impedance is established based on the impedance continuity principle, and the interface electric field distortion is eliminated through the double insulation layer dielectric gradient distribution model; then, the key parameters are optimized by electromagnetic-thermal coupling simulation, and the quantitative relationship between the surface roughness and the high-frequency loss is established; finally, the structural parameters are globally optimized by a multi-objective genetic algorithm, and the theoretical design specification and verification report are output; the method solves the resonance problem caused by impedance mutation in the prior art through the spiral gradient groove structure and the double insulation layer gradient design, avoids high-frequency signal reflection and insertion loss, and at the same time, by optimizing the surface roughness of the conductor, reduces the high-frequency loss caused by the skin effect, thereby effectively improving the stability and efficiency of signal transmission; this design not only eliminates the resonance point problem of the traditional connector, but also provides excellent low-loss performance in the full frequency band, and is particularly suitable for high-frequency and high-power transmission environments.

[0078] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that the inner layer is made of foamed polytetrafluoroethylene with a low dielectric constant. =1.8; the outer layer is filled with high dielectric constant boron nitride nanotube composite medium, its dielectric constant =3.2.

[0079] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that S1 specifically includes:

[0080] S11, a segmented spiral gradient groove is constructed on the axial surface of the inner conductor of the connector. The spiral gradient groove consists of alternating deep groove segments and shallow groove segments. The depth of the deep groove segment is =0.3mm, shallow groove depth =0.1mm, the helix angle θ changes linearly from 30° to 60°, and adjacent groove segments are connected by a smooth transition zone; the transition length accounts for 15%-20% of the helix period Λ;

[0081] The step-by-step impedance change is achieved by alternating deep and shallow grooves, avoiding the local impedance mismatch of the traditional single groove depth; the linear change of the spiral angle compensates for the impedance drop caused by the high-frequency skin effect. The segmented design breaks the periodic structure and suppresses the generation of resonance points (traditional continuous spiral grooves are prone to forming standing waves at specific frequencies).

[0082] S12, define the equivalent impedance distribution function Z (x) of the spiral gradient groove, and establish the mapping relationship between the groove depth h, the spiral angle θ and the equivalent impedance through the mathematical method of exponential decay superposition sine modulation, where the groove depth h (x) changes with the axial position x according to Regular attenuation, the helix angle θ(x) and the axial projection length satisfy the linear constraint of tanθ(x)=k·x+b;

[0083] The physical structural parameters (h, θ) are converted into quantifiable impedance distribution Z(x), providing a theoretical basis for simulation optimization. Exponential decay dominates the impedance gradient trend, and the sinusoidal term (implicit in the groove depth fluctuation) suppresses the periodic impedance fluctuation (amplitude ±0.05mm).

[0084] S13, the spiral period Λ and the attenuation coefficient α are optimized by parametric scanning, and the impedance continuity is verified by finite element simulation, so that the impedance fluctuation ΔsZ between adjacent slot segments is ≤1Ω, and the full axial impedance deviation |Z(x)-50Ω| is ≤2Ω.

[0085] Screen the combination of Λ and α that meets impedance continuity to ensure broadband matching performance. Parameter scanning combined with electromagnetic simulation replaces the traditional trial and error method, improving efficiency by 80%. Generate simulation input based on the mathematical model of S12, and the optimization results are used to modify the structural parameters of S11 (for example, impedance continuity is optimal when Λ=3.2mm).

[0086] S14, a chamfer structure is set at the bottom of the deep groove section, and the field-circuit collaborative simulation is used to calculate the smoothing effect of the chamfer on the electric field distribution, reducing the maximum field strength from 350V / m to below 220V / m;

[0087] Eliminate the electric field concentration caused by the sharp corners at the bottom of the slot and improve the withstand voltage level (from 300V RMS to 500V RMS). The chamfer design improves the uniformity of the electric field distribution by 40% and avoids the risk of local breakdown. The optimized Λ and α determine the slot geometry, and the chamfer parameters need to be consistent with the slot depth. Compatible (Chamfer radius ).

[0088] S15, based on parameter sensitivity analysis, determine the allowable range of key geometric parameters: helix angle θ∈[30°, 60°], helix period Λ∈[2mm, 5mm], attenuation coefficient α∈[0.1, 0.3]. If the allowable range is exceeded, an impedance mutation alarm is triggered;

[0089] Quantify the impact of manufacturing tolerances on performance and define acceptable parameter fluctuation ranges. Parameter sensitivity thresholds (e.g., Δθ = ±1° leads to ΔZ = ±0.5Ω) are directly related to process control criteria. Determine parameter boundaries based on S13 simulation data and S14 electric field optimization results.

[0090] S16, generates a three-dimensional parametric model and impedance distribution curve of the spiral gradient groove, and outputs a design specification file, including the groove geometry tolerance (±0.02mm), axial position coding rules and impedance tolerance threshold.

[0091] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that S2 specifically includes:

[0092] S21, determine the material composite system of the double insulation layer, the inner layer is a mixed material of foamed polytetrafluoroethylene and hollow glass microspheres, and the outer layer is a boron nitride nanotube / liquid silicone composite material. The nonlinear relationship between the dielectric constant and the component changes is determined through a material compounding experiment, thereby obtaining a material ratio table;

[0093] Choose low dielectric constant inner layers ( =1.8) to reduce signal loss, high dielectric constant outer layer ( =3.2) Enhance mechanical strength and quantify component-property relationships through experimental data.

[0094] Hollow glass microspheres (30μm in diameter) make the inner layer porosity reach 40%, and the dielectric constant is 15% lower than that of pure PTFE; boron nitride nanotubes (aspect ratio > 200) are arranged in a directional manner to form a thermal conductive network.

[0095] The material ratio table is used as the core input of the S22 gradient function to ensure that the deviation between the theoretical value of the dielectric constant and the measured value is less than 2%.

[0096] S22, defines the transition function of the dielectric constant gradient, based on the inner radius =2.5mm, outer radius =4.0mm, the dielectric constant distribution equation with radial position r as variable is established:

[0097] ,

[0098] Where n is the gradient index;

[0099] The change law of the dielectric constant of the double insulating layer is mathematically calculated to avoid the electric field distortion caused by step mutation. The power function model (n=2.5) makes the dielectric constant change smoothly in the transition zone, and the fluctuation of the gradient change rate is compressed to ±5% (the fluctuation of the traditional linear model is >±15%).

[0100] S21 material ratio table ( =1.8, =3.2) is directly substituted into the equation to provide a theoretical basis for the parametric modeling of S23.

[0101] S23, develop parametric modeling tools to import the dielectric constant distribution equation into 3D electromagnetic simulation software, generate solid models of insulating layers with non-uniform material properties, and verify the design goal of the peak electric field strength not exceeding 150 V / mm.

[0102] The theoretical model was converted into a simulable 3D entity to verify the uniformity of the electric field distribution. The model was generated based on the gradient equation, and the simulation results (the peak field strength dropped from 280V / m to 150V / m) were fed back to the microstructure optimization of S24.

[0103] S24, a periodic microstructure is set in the transition zone. The periodic microstructure is specifically a honeycomb through-hole array with a pore size of 50μm and a spacing of 100μm. The microstructure morphology is optimized by finite element simulation to obtain the microstructure processing tolerance; the fluctuation range of the dielectric constant gradient change rate is controlled within ±5%.

[0104] S25, based on the dielectrophoresis experiment, the polarization characteristics of the composite material system are determined, the dielectric constant theoretical model is modified, and a three-dimensional relationship map of component-dielectric constant-temperature is established to optimize the material ratio table; (temperature range -55℃ to 125℃);

[0105] Quantify the effect of temperature on dielectric properties (e.g. The dielectric anisotropy of the nanotubes was Δε=±0.05, which was 3.25 at -55°C and 3.15 at 125°C, supporting the wide temperature range design. The dielectrophoresis experiment revealed the influence of nanotube orientation on dielectric anisotropy (Δε=±0.05), correcting the deviation of the theoretical model.

[0106] A material ratio table adjusted based on experimental data feedback (e.g. the upper limit of the volume fraction of outer layer boron nitride is tightened from 25% to 23%), and temperature compensation rules are added to the specification document.

[0107] S26, output the design specification file of the double insulation layer, including the material ratio table, the allowable range of gradient index and the microstructure processing tolerance.

[0108] Allowable range of gradient index: S22 (gradient transition function): The gradient index n=2.5 is initially set, but its allowable range needs to be verified through subsequent steps.

[0109] S24 (microstructure optimization): Simulation found that when n < 2.0, the dielectric constant gradient change rate fluctuates by more than ±10%, resulting in electric field distortion; when n > 3.0, the proportion of outer layer material is too high, and the mechanical strength decreases. Therefore, n∈[2.0, 3.0].

[0110] S25 (Temperature Effect): When the temperature changes, the value of n needs to compensate for the difference in the thermal expansion coefficient of the material, further constraining the allowable range of n.

[0111] In this embodiment, it is specifically described that S3 specifically includes:

[0112] S31, establish the coupling simulation model of the connector, and transform the geometric parameters (h, θ, Λ) of the spiral gradient groove and the gradient distribution parameters of the double insulation layer Import the electromagnetic-thermal joint solver; integrate structural parameters and material properties to achieve collaborative simulation of electromagnetic loss (S parameters) and temperature rise (Joule heat).

[0113] S32, divide the adaptive grid in the target frequency band, use local refined grid for the spiral groove area (minimum grid size λ / 50, λ is the wavelength corresponding to the highest frequency), and set the boundary condition as radiation absorption boundary (PML layer number = 8);

[0114] An adaptive grid is divided within the target frequency band (DC-40GHz), a local encrypted grid is used for the spiral groove area (minimum size λ / 50, λ=40GHz corresponds to a wavelength of 7.5mm), and 8 perfectly matched layers (PMLs) are set as radiation absorption boundaries.

[0115] Improve the simulation accuracy of high-frequency field distribution (λ / 50 grid can resolve 0.15mm details), suppress boundary reflection errors (PML attenuates reflection to below -60dB). Dynamic mesh encryption technology allows computing resources to be concentrated in key areas (spiral grooves), and the geometric parameters of S31 (such as Λ=3.2mm) determine the mesh division density to ensure accurate capture of the field distribution at the groove edge.

[0116] S33, performing full-wave electromagnetic simulation to extract the S parameter matrix, calculating the voltage standing wave ratio VSWR and the insertion loss IL, and calculating the conductor loss power density distribution through the Joule heat model;

[0117] Verify impedance matching (VSWR) and signal integrity (IL), and evaluate thermal reliability (temperature rise <15°C). The joint solver realizes real-time interaction between electromagnetic and thermal fields, for example, the power loss at 40GHz frequency is directly mapped to heat source input.
