[0088] Specifically, when the switch 8 is switched to the internal calibration load 7, the first undersampling circuit 4 undersamples the first power consumption data at the input end of the RF power output component 2; the second undersampling circuit 5 undersamples the second power consumption data at the output end of the RF power output component 2; the controller 6 receives the first power consumption data and the second power consumption data, and calculates the impedance to be calibrated of the internal calibration load 7 according to the first power consumption data and the second power consumption data. In addition, the controller 6 can also receive the standard impedance corresponding to the internal calibration load 7 input by the user. Then, the controller 6 compares the impedance to be calibrated with the standard impedance, and calibrates the impedance test circuit of the RF generator according to the comparison result.

[0090] Specifically, when the switch 8 is switched to the internal calibration load 7, the first undersampling circuit 4 undersamples the first current and the first voltage at the input end of the RF power output component 2; the second undersampling circuit 5 undersamples the second current and the second voltage at the output end of the RF power output component 2. The controller 6 receives the first current, the first voltage, the second current and the second voltage. Then, the controller 6 calculates the total input power of the RF power output component 2 according to the first current and the first voltage; divides the total input power by the product of the second current and the second voltage, and then multiplies it by the first coefficient to calculate the phase angle of the RF catheter 3.

[0093] After receiving the first current, the first voltage, the second current and the second voltage after digital-to-analog conversion, the controller 6 calculates the total input power of the RF power output component 2 by multiplying the first current after digital-to-analog conversion by the first voltage. Then, the total input power is divided by the product of the second current and the second voltage after digital-to-analog conversion, and then multiplied by the first coefficient to calculate the phase angle of the RF catheter 3. Then, the resistance and inductance of the RF catheter are calculated according to the second voltage and the second current; and the measurement impedance of the RF catheter is determined according to the resistance and the inductance.
[0094] After calculating the measured impedance of the radio frequency catheter 3 , the controller 6 can also monitor the measured impedance in real time, and adjust the power output by the radio frequency power output component 2 when the measured impedance changes.
