[0055] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0057] In the embodiment of the present application, "and / or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B may represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / ", unless otherwise specified, generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0058] In this application, the word "exemplary" is used to mean "serving as an example, illustration, or illustration." Any embodiment described in this application as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. The following description is given to enable any person skilled in the art to implement and use the invention. In the following description, details are listed for the purpose of explanation. It should be understood that a person of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the invention can be implemented without using these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not elaborated in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the invention with unnecessary details. Therefore, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0059] With the great development of new energy vehicles, smart cars play an increasingly important role in people's lives, and T-BOX, as an important component of smart cars, is very important to the intelligence of the whole vehicle. Most T-BOXs have positioning functions, and considering the development cycle and cost, module solutions are generally used to implement them. Because the module has requirements for the gain range of the antenna, not all antennas can meet the requirements. Considering the cost and development cycle, it is generally best to use antennas that have been mass-produced, which can save the cost of research and development and mold opening. However, due to the required limit of antenna gain, many cost-effective antennas cannot be used directly and conveniently.

[0060] Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide a gain control circuit, method, circuit board, vehicle-mounted electronic equipment, vehicle and computer-readable storage medium (computer-readable storage medium may be referred to as storage medium in its entirety), which are described in detail below.

[0061] For details, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of one implementation scheme of the gain control circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application; specifically, a gain adjustment unit 10 and a gain control unit 11;

[0062] The gain adjustment unit 10 is used to adjust the gain of the antenna radio frequency signal and output it;

[0063] The gain control unit 11 is used to adjust the gain adjustment unit 10 according to the gain value corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit 10 .

[0064] Specifically, in the implementation scheme of the present application, the gain adjustment unit 10 can be a circuit or element with a gain adjustment effect, such as a variable resistor, a variable capacitor, an operational amplifier or an adjustable gain amplifier, a digital gain controller, etc.

[0065] It is understandable that the environmental GPS signal (GPS signal is a radio frequency signal transmitted by the global positioning system satellite) is dynamically changing, causing the received antenna radio frequency signal to also change dynamically. It is further understandable that the gain value of the antenna radio frequency signal corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit will also change. In this solution, the dynamically changing gain value is detected in real time, and the gain adjustment unit is dynamically adjusted according to the gain value to avoid limitations in the use of the antenna.

[0066] For details, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the gain control circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application. In the embodiment of the present application, the gain adjustment unit 10 includes at least two gain adjustment subunits 101 ( Figure 2 Four are given as examples in the figure), each gain subunit 101 has a different attenuation value. By selecting different attenuation values ​​to control the gain adjustment and output of the antenna RF signal, outputs corresponding to different gain values ​​are obtained, thereby realizing dynamic adjustment of the gain value.

[0067] Specifically, in the implementation scheme of the present application, the gain control unit 11 is used to determine the target gain adjustment subunit according to the gain value corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit 10, and control the antenna RF signal to be input into the target gain adjustment subunit through the gain control unit 11; wherein the target gain subunit is any one of the gain adjustment subunits 101.

[0068] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the gain adjustment subunit 101 is an attenuation network. Specifically, it is a π-type attenuation network, see Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, four groups of π-type attenuation networks are set up.

[0069] See also Figure 2 The present application also provides an implementation scheme of a gain control unit 11. Specifically, the gain control unit 11 includes:

[0070] A switch 110, wherein the switch 110 comprises at least two output terminals, each of which is connected to the gain adjustment subunit 101;

[0071] The control subunit 111 is used to control the output end path connected to the target gain adjustment subunit 101 .

[0072] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the switch 110 corresponds to four π-type attenuation networks, and uses a single-pole four-way switch, that is, an SP4T switch, wherein the SP4T switch is an electronic switch, which refers to a Single-Pole Four-Throw switch. This switch can have one input terminal (single pole) and four output terminals (four-way), and it can switch the input signal to one of four different output paths, each of which can be in an open or closed state.

[0073] The control subunit 111 may be a controller, a single chip microcomputer, etc.

[0074] Specifically, in the implementation scheme of the present application, the control subunit 111 is a modem.

[0075] Specifically, Figure 2 The point A mentioned in the figure is the point where the antenna RF signal is connected, and the point B is the point where the antenna RF signal after gain adjustment is output.

[0076] Specifically, in the implementation scheme of the present application, two switches are included, namely SP4T, which is a single-pole four-throw RF switch, which can select to connect point A to four RF attenuation networks, namely π attenuation 1, π attenuation 2, π attenuation 3, and π attenuation 4, and then these four π-type attenuation networks are connected to point B through a second SP4T switch. In this way, the four RF attenuation networks from point A to point B can be connected, that is, an adjustable attenuation network can be added between point A and point B by selecting the switch.

[0077] For further information, see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of one implementation scheme of the gain control circuit provided in the present application. In the implementation scheme of the present application, the gain control circuit further includes: a radio frequency receiving unit 12, that is, the RF connector shown in the figure, wherein A and B correspond to Figure 1 or Figure 2 The gain control circuit will not be described in detail.

[0078] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the RF receiving unit 12 is used to receive an antenna RF signal and send the antenna RF signal to the gain adjustment unit 10;

[0079] The gain control unit 11 is arranged between the gain adjustment unit 10 and the RF receiving unit 12 , and is used to control the antenna RF signal input by the RF receiving unit 12 to be output to B through any gain adjustment subunit 101 in the gain adjustment unit 10 .

[0080] For further information, see Figure 3In the implementation scheme of the present application, the gain control circuit also includes a positioning receiver module 13, and the positioning receiver module 13 is used to receive the antenna RF signal output by the gain adjustment unit 10; analyze and process the antenna RF signal to obtain position information.

[0081] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present application, the gain control circuit also includes a communication unit; the communication unit is connected to the positioning receiver module; the communication unit is used to receive the position information and perform vehicle positioning processing based on the position information.

[0082] Exemplarily, the communication unit is a T-BOX of the vehicle. Specifically, T-BOX (Telematics BOX) refers to an in-vehicle information and communication system, which generally includes functions such as vehicle remote monitoring, data transmission and location services.

[0083] Furthermore, based on the above embodiments, the present application also provides a gain control circuit board, on which the gain control circuit board is integrated with the gain control circuit as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0084] Furthermore, the present application also provides a gain control method implementation scheme, wherein the gain control method is applied to a gain control circuit as described in any of the above implementation schemes, and the gain control circuit includes a gain adjustment unit and a gain control unit. For details, please refer to the above implementation schemes and will not be repeated here. The specific method includes: adjusting the gain adjustment unit according to the gain value corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit.

[0085] For details, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of a gain control method in an embodiment of the present application. The gain control method includes steps S401-S402:

[0086] S401. Obtain a gain value corresponding to an antenna radio frequency signal output by the gain adjustment unit.

[0087] Specifically, in the implementation of the present application, the gain control unit collects the gain value corresponding to the antenna RF signal output by the gain adjustment unit. Further, the gain value is compared with a preset gain range. If the gain value is within the range, it means that the gain value of the antenna RF signal currently output by the gain adjustment unit meets the requirement, and the gain adjustment unit is not adjusted, that is, the current working state is maintained.

[0088] S402: If the gain value is not within a preset gain range, adjust the gain adjustment unit.

[0089] Specifically, if the gain value is not within the preset gain range, it means that the gain value of the antenna RF signal currently output by the gain adjustment unit does not meet the requirement, and the gain adjustment unit needs to be adjusted.

[0090] Specifically, in this scenario, it is necessary to adjust the attenuation value of the gain adjustment unit to adjust the gain value of the antenna radio frequency signal to meet the requirement.

[0091] Specifically, in some implementation schemes of the present application, the preset gain range includes a maximum value and a minimum value. When the gain value is not within the preset gain range, the relationship between the gain value and the maximum value or the minimum value is compared; if the gain value is less than the minimum value in the preset gain range, indicating that the gain value corresponding to the output is too small, the attenuation value of the gain adjustment unit is increased to increase the gain value corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit.

[0092] Specifically, in some implementation schemes of the present application, when the gain value is not within the preset gain range, the relationship between the gain value and the maximum value or the minimum value is compared; if the gain value is greater than the maximum value in the preset gain range, indicating that the gain value corresponding to the output is too large, the attenuation value of the gain adjustment unit is reduced to reduce the gain value corresponding to the output of the gain adjustment unit.

[0093] Specifically, in this solution, the gain adjustment unit includes at least two gain adjustment sub-units, each of which corresponds to a different attenuation value. If the gain value is not within the preset gain range, the gain adjustment unit is adjusted, specifically including the steps of:

[0094] (1) if the gain value is not within the preset gain range, determining a target attenuation value according to the actual attenuation value of the gain adjustment unit and the attenuation values ​​corresponding to each of the gain adjustment subunits;

[0095] (2) The target gain adjustment subunit corresponding to the target attenuation value is adjusted to a connection state, and other gain adjustment subunits except the target gain adjustment subunit are adjusted to a disconnection state.

[0096] Specifically, in this solution, the SP4T switch is controlled by the CTL pin IO to select different attenuation networks, and the selection of the attenuation network is controlled by the modem. The modem determines whether it is necessary to adjust the π-type attenuation network (determine whether the gain value is within the preset gain range) through the value of the antenna gain variable PGA (antenna gain variable PGA, that is, gain value), and selects which set of attenuation values ​​to use according to the four sets of attenuation values ​​in the preset program. After the selection is completed, the real-time gain value PGA value is obtained again, and the PGA value is used to determine whether it is within the optimal antenna gain range. If it is within the optimal gain range, this set of attenuation values ​​is kept unchanged. If it is not the optimal attenuation value, the attenuation network is continuously adjusted and the optimal attenuation value is selected until the optimal attenuation value is found. In this selection process, the modem dynamically adjusts the attenuation network according to the PGA value. The value of PGA is affected by the strength of the external signal, so that active antenna gain control based on the external environmental signal can be achieved.

[0097] For details, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 A flow chart of one implementation scheme of the gain control method provided in the present application. Specifically, the ambient GPS signal (antenna RF signal) is sent to the gain adjustment unit for gain adjustment and then output to obtain the antenna gain variable PGA value (output corresponding to the gain value). The modem detects the antenna gain variable PGA value in real time and determines whether it is in the optimal range. If not, the attenuation network is adjusted. If so, no adjustment is made, thereby realizing dynamic adjustment of the attenuation network.
