Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of millimeter-wave and terahertz integrated circuit design, specifically relating to a deep learning-based millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifier design method and related devices. Background Technology
[0002] In the Asia-Pacific Hertz band, the limited gain of CMOS devices is a key factor restricting the design of CMOS Asia-Pacific Hertz amplifiers. Due to the high-frequency characteristics of the Asia-Pacific Hertz band, parasitic parameters within CMOS devices, such as resistance, capacitance, and inductance, have a particularly significant impact on device gain. These parasitic parameters not only reduce device gain but also introduce additional phase delay and noise, thus affecting the overall performance of the amplifier.
[0003] Currently, the common techniques used to reduce the impact of parasitic parameters are device physical characteristic analysis and layout optimization. In-depth analysis of the physical characteristics of CMOS devices reveals the sources and influencing factors of parasitic parameters, allowing for the optimization of device structure and layout to reduce their values. However, while this method can improve device gain to some extent, it remains limited by the inherent physical characteristics of the device itself, making it difficult to achieve significant performance improvements.
[0004] To improve the gain performance of CMOS Asia-Pacific Hertz amplifiers, researchers have introduced embedded compensation theory and methods. Embedded compensation network technology uses additional compensation elements within the network to counteract the effects of parasitic parameters, thereby restoring and improving the device's gain. Patent CN114024514B discloses an overneutralized amplifier structure with a series-type lossy embedded network. By introducing a series-type lossy embedded network into a traditional two-port amplifier network, the unidirectional power gain is increased under preset conditions. Based on this, a Y / Z type LLREN is used to further improve the maximum usable gain, effectively enhancing the amplifier's power gain. However, because embedded compensation network technology relies on network parameter theory analysis and the embedded network typically uses a transmission line structure, the solution space is limited. Furthermore, the transmission line network parameters are strongly correlated with the operating frequency, which limits the performance of the embedded compensation network in the Asia-Pacific Hertz band, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve the requirements of wide bandwidth and high gain. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a design method and related apparatus for millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifiers based on deep learning, which solves the problem of limited solution space and strong correlation with operating frequency of embedded compensation networks, so as to achieve both wide bandwidth and high gain of the amplifier.
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, embodiments of this application provide a deep learning-based design method for millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifiers, comprising the following steps:
[0007] Multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures are pixelated and their corresponding two-dimensional matrices are constructed.
[0008] The two-dimensional matrix is input into the network parameter prediction model to obtain the corresponding embedded network S-parameters;
[0009] After establishing the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier, the S-parameters of the embedded network are globally optimized to obtain the optimal embedded compensation network structure. The amplifier is then designed based on the optimal embedded compensation network structure.
[0010] In some implementations, the process of establishing the network parameter prediction model is as follows: electromagnetic simulation is performed on multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures after pixelation to obtain a two-dimensional matrix and the corresponding embedded network S-parameters. The two-dimensional matrix and the embedded network S-parameters are used as the input and output of a convolutional neural network (CNN) respectively. The CNN is then trained and verified to obtain the network parameter prediction model.
[0011] In some implementations, the convolutional neural network includes n convolutional layers and m fully connected layers, where n is the number of convolutional layers and m is the number of fully connected layers. Each convolutional layer is followed by a normalization layer and an activation layer in sequence. The first m-1 fully connected layers are followed by a normalization layer, an activation layer, and a random deactivation layer in sequence. The activation layer uses the Leaky ReLU function.
[0012] In some implementations, a genetic algorithm is used to globally optimize the S-parameters of the embedding network to obtain the optimal embedding compensation network structure, specifically including the following steps:
[0013] The two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures are used as the parent generation, and the mean square error between the embedded network S-parameters and the expected S-parameters is used as the cost function.
[0014] The error between the embedded network S-parameters and the expected S-parameters is calculated based on the cost function, and the two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the minimum errors are selected as the first subset.
[0015] Randomly select several two-dimensional matrices from the parent generation and filter out the two two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the minimum error to generate a child generation. Repeat this step until the number of child generations is equal to the number of parent generations. The child generations constitute a second subset.
[0016] The first subset and the second subset are merged into a new population to iterate over the parent generation. The above steps are repeated until a preset number of iterations is reached to obtain the optimal embedding compensation network structure.
[0017] In some implementations, the step of constructing the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier specifically includes:
[0018] The amplifier's Y-parameters are composed of the Y-parameters of the embedded compensation network structure and the Y-parameters of the transistor;
[0019] The Y parameters of the embedded compensation network structure are obtained based on the S parameters of the embedded network and the identity matrix.
[0020] Based on the Y-parameters and identity matrix of the embedded compensation network structure, and in conjunction with the Y-parameters of the transistor, the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier is obtained.
[0021] In some implementations, after performing electromagnetic simulation on multiple pixelated arbitrary embedded compensation network structures to obtain a two-dimensional matrix and the corresponding embedded network S-parameters, the method further includes: expanding the two-dimensional matrix and the corresponding embedded network S-parameters using a generative adversarial network.
[0022] To address the aforementioned technical problems, embodiments of this application provide a deep learning-based millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifier design system, comprising:
[0023] An embedded compensation network pixelation module is used to pixelate multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures and construct corresponding two-dimensional matrices;
[0024] The embedded network S-parameter prediction module inputs the two-dimensional matrix into the network parameter prediction model to obtain the corresponding embedded network S-parameters.
[0025] The amplifier design module establishes the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier, then performs global optimization on the S-parameters of the embedded network to obtain the optimal embedded compensation network structure, and designs the amplifier based on the optimal embedded compensation network structure.

[0038] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0039] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a deep learning-based design method for millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifiers, including the following steps:
[0041] S1: Pixelate multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures and construct corresponding two-dimensional matrices. Specifically, using the idea of image pixelation, 400,000 20×20 two-dimensional matrices are randomly generated using MATLAB for arbitrary embedded compensation network structures.
[0042] S2, the two-dimensional matrix is input into the network parameter prediction model to obtain the corresponding embedded network S-parameters. Specifically, on the PyTorch platform, the two-dimensional matrix and the embedded network S-parameters generated by electromagnetic simulation are used as the input and output of the convolutional neural network, respectively. The convolutional neural network is trained and validated to obtain the network parameter prediction model. The function fitting relationship between the embedded network S-parameters and the embedded compensation network structure is constructed through the network parameter prediction model.
[0043] This convolutional neural network architecture includes 12 convolutional layers and 5 fully connected layers. Each convolutional layer is followed by a normalization layer and an activation layer. The first four fully connected layers are followed by a normalization layer, an activation layer, and a random deactivation layer. The activation layer uses the Leaky ReLU function to prevent gradient vanishing, ensuring good learning performance of the convolutional neural network. The random deactivation layer reduces the possibility of overfitting during learning. In this embodiment, each convolutional layer has 102 channels. The kernel sizes of the first to twelfth convolutional layers are 16×16, 12×12, 10×10, 6×6, 5×5, 5×5, 4×4, 4×4, 4×4, 3×3, 3×3, and 3×3, respectively. The neuron data of the first to fifth fully connected layers are 1000, 1000, 800, 800, and 120, respectively.
[0044] The 20×20 two-dimensional matrix in S1 is input into the CNN above, where the first row, first column, eighteenth row and eighteenth column of the two-dimensional matrix represent the excitation port positions, respectively. The CNN output is the embedded network S-parameters of the electromagnetic simulation of the embedded compensation network structure represented by the two-dimensional matrix.
[0045] Preferably, during electromagnetic simulation, a generative adversarial network (GAN) is used to expand the dataset by using the two-dimensional matrix and the embedded network S-parameters as the input and output of the GAN, respectively. This reduces the time required for data generation. Then, on the PyTorch platform, the two-dimensional matrix and the embedded network S-parameters are used as the input and output of a convolutional neural network (CNN), and the CNN is trained and validated to obtain a network parameter prediction model. This GAN can take the form of Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network (DCGAN), Progressive Growing Generative Adversarial Network (PGAN), or Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network (WGAN), etc.
[0046] S3. After establishing the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier, the S-parameters of the embedded network are globally optimized to obtain the optimal embedded compensation network structure. The amplifier is then designed based on the optimal embedded compensation network.
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the Y-parameters of the amplifier are composed of the Y-parameters of the embedded compensation network structure and the Y-parameters of the transistor, i.e., the following equation (1):
[0048] (1)
[0049] In equation (1), For the amplifier's Y parameters, For the Y-parameters of the transistor, The Y parameters are used to embed the compensation network structure.
[0050] The relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the embedded compensation network structure is established, as shown in equation (2):
[0051] (2)
[0052] In equation (2), It is the identity matrix. To embed the network S-parameters.
[0053] Based on equations (1) and (2), the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier is obtained, namely equation (3):
[0054] (3)
[0055] By combining the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedding network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier, the optimal embedding compensation network structure is obtained by globally optimizing the S-parameters of the embedding network using a genetic algorithm. This genetic algorithm can be replaced by other global optimization algorithms, such as: Empire competition algorithm, particle swarm optimization algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm, greedy algorithm, and neighborhood search algorithm.
[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, the specific optimization process of the genetic algorithm is as follows:
[0057] S3.1 First, initialize the population. Use MATLAB to randomly generate 2048 two-dimensional matrices as parents as described in S1. Use the CNN trained in S2 to predict the embedding network S parameters of the embedding compensation network represented by the 2048 two-dimensional matrices.
[0058] S3.2, with the expected S-parameters as the objective, uses the mean squared error between the embedded network S-parameters and the expected S-parameters as the cost function, as shown in the following equation:
[0059]
[0060]
[0061]
[0062] In the above formula, (Cost Function) is the cost function. To embed the network S-parameters, For the expected S-parameters, This represents the functional fit between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the structure of the embedded compensation network.
[0063] The error between the embedded network S-parameters and the expected S-parameters is calculated using the above cost function. The minimum error between the expected S-parameters and the embedded network S-parameters is used as the objective function, and the two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the 16 minimum errors are directly inherited by the offspring.
[0064] S3.3: Randomly select 256 two-dimensional matrices from the parent generation, read the corresponding errors, and select the two two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the minimum errors as parent individuals. After generating a child generation through crossover, repeat S3.3 until the number of child generations is equal to the number of parent generations described in S3.1.
[0065] S3.4 updates the population using the offspring generated in S3.3 and the two-dimensional matrix corresponding to the 16 minimum errors in S3.2. The new population also includes the offspring generated by crossover in S3.3 and the two-dimensional matrix corresponding to the 16 minimum errors in S3.2.
[0066] Repeat steps S3.2 to S3.4 until the preset number of iterations is 100, then generate the 100th generation population. Finally, select the two-dimensional matrix corresponding to the minimum error as the optimal solution to obtain the optimal embedding compensation network structure.
[0067] Finally, the amplifier is designed based on the optimal embedded compensation network structure, such as... Figure 6 As shown, electromagnetic simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method designs an Asia-Pacific Hertz amplifier with an operating frequency range of 180 GHz to 220 GHz, a gain greater than 1.8 dB, and good stability, consuming a total power of approximately 7.8 mA. These simulation results validate the amplifier design method based on convolutional neural networks and genetic algorithms provided in this embodiment. This method effectively addresses the limitations of existing embedded compensation networks in terms of solution space and their strong correlation with operating frequency, achieving a broadband and high-gain amplifier.
[0068] The deep learning-based millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifier design method provided in this embodiment has the following advantages:
[0069] (1) Using the idea of image pixelation, the arbitrary embedded compensation network structure is decomposed into pixels. The arbitrary embedded compensation network structure is represented by a two-dimensional matrix. Then, the fitting relationship between the embedded compensation network structure and the S-parameters of the embedded network is constructed using a convolutional neural network. The solution space is large. Finally, the broadband and high-gain millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifiers can be obtained through the iteration of the genetic algorithm. This method can solve the problem that the solution space of the embedded compensation network is limited and strongly correlated with the operating frequency. It can explore the ability of active devices to provide gain in the Asia-Pacific Hertz band, so that broadband and high-gain amplifiers can be designed.
[0070] (2) Using generative adversarial networks to expand the embedded compensation network structure and the dataset formed by its corresponding embedded network S-parameters can reduce the time required for electromagnetic simulation and improve design efficiency.
[0071] (3) According to the different requirements of the amplifier, by modifying the cost function of the genetic algorithm, the optimal embedding compensation network structure that meets the performance requirements can be generated by combining the fitting relationship between the arbitrary pixelated embedding compensation network structure constructed by the convolutional neural network algorithm and the S-parameters of the embedding network. It has the advantages of strong applicability and efficient design.
[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a deep learning-based millimeter-wave and terahertz amplifier design system, including:
[0073] An embedded compensation network pixelation module is used to pixelate multiple arbitrary embedded compensation network structures and construct corresponding two-dimensional matrices;
[0074] The embedded network S-parameter prediction module inputs the two-dimensional matrix into the network parameter prediction model to obtain the corresponding embedded network S-parameters.
[0075] The embedded network S-parameter prediction module is specifically used to input the two-dimensional matrix into a convolutional neural network and output the embedded network S-parameters to obtain a dataset consisting of the embedded network S-parameters corresponding to the two-dimensional matrix. The convolutional neural network is then trained and validated using this dataset to obtain a network parameter prediction model. The convolutional neural network includes n convolutional layers and m fully connected layers, where n is the number of convolutional layers and m is the number of fully connected layers. Each convolutional layer is followed by a normalization layer and an activation layer. The first m-1 fully connected layers are followed by a normalization layer, an activation layer, and a random deactivation layer. The activation layer uses the Leaky ReLU function.
[0076] The embedded network S-parameter prediction module further includes:

The error between the embedded network S-parameters and the expected S-parameters is calculated based on the cost function, and the two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the minimum errors are selected as the first subset. Randomly select several two-dimensional matrices from the parent generation and filter out the two two-dimensional matrices corresponding to the minimum error to generate a child generation. Repeat this step until the number of child generations is equal to the number of parent generations. The child generations constitute a second subset. The first subset and the second subset are merged into a new population to iterate the parent generation. The above steps are repeated until a preset number of iterations are reached to obtain the optimal embedding compensation network structure. The steps for constructing the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier specifically include: The amplifier's Y-parameters are composed of the Y-parameters of the embedded compensation network structure and the Y-parameters of the transistor; The Y parameters of the embedded compensation network structure are obtained based on the S parameters of the embedded network and the identity matrix. Based on the Y-parameters and identity matrix of the embedded compensation network structure, and in conjunction with the Y-parameters of the transistor, the relationship between the S-parameters of the embedded network and the Y-parameters of the amplifier is obtained.
