[0002] Traditional antennas usually can only operate within a specific frequency range. When the communication frequency changes, the impedance matching of the antenna is poor, resulting in serious signal reflection and a significant reduction in transmission efficiency; different communication environments (such as temperature, humidity, electromagnetic interference, etc.) will have a significant impact on the antenna performance. Existing antennas are difficult to adapt to these environmental changes, thereby affecting communication quality and stability; in the case of the increasing demand for multi-band communication, traditional antennas cannot flexibly switch frequencies, restricting the versatility and application scope of communication devices. Summary of the Invention

The antenna tuning monitoring unit issues the impedance parameter, motor tuning parameter, and fixed tap inductance parameter commands to the first relay group, the servo detection circuit, and the second relay group respectively; when the radio frequency output signal of the external transmitter enters the standing wave detection circuit, forward and reverse power coupling is performed, and the coupled signal is sent to the antenna tuning monitoring unit to be converted into a standing wave ratio. The value of the standing wave ratio less than 1.3 is used as the judgment basis for successful tuning; the radio frequency output signal sequentially enters the servo detection circuit to detect the power signal entering the antenna tuning unit through servo detection, and the corresponding voltage and current signals are collected; when the voltage and current are in the same direction, the load is resistive and the motor does not move. When the voltage and current are not in the same direction, the load is reactive, and the motor is controlled to rotate to change the inductance value of the variable inductance coil; the radio frequency signal then sequentially passes through the impedance converter, the variable inductance coil, the fixed tap inductance coil, and the lightning arrester to transmit the signal to the antenna, making the antenna in a series resonance state; As a further preferred embodiment of the antenna tuning system of the present invention, the standing wave detection circuit includes a forward RF signal coupling circuit, a reverse RF signal coupling circuit, and a diode detection circuit. The output RF signal of the external transmitter is sampled and then converted into a voltage signal by the diode detection circuit. Finally, the two voltage signals are connected to the single-chip microcomputer of the antenna tuning monitoring unit through an operational amplifier.

[0005] As a further preferred embodiment of the antenna tuning system of the present invention, the servo detection circuit includes a current mutual inductance coupler, a phase detection, and a control circuit. The current sampling signal is used as a switching signal and added to the detector circuit. After the capacitive voltage coupling signal is detected, a positive voltage will be output; after the inductive voltage coupling signal is detected, a negative voltage will be output, successfully realizing phase detection. According to the polarity of the voltage output by the phase detection, the DC motor is driven to change the inductance of the adjustable inductance coil, so that the antenna is in a series resonance state.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the present invention adopts the above technical solutions and has the following technical effects: Compared with the existing antenna tuner of the present invention, when the communication frequency changes or the external environment changes, the impedance matching of the antenna is not good. Personnel need to carry tools to the installation location to open the equipment chassis and manually change the impedance of the impedance converter and the inductance of the fixed tap inductance coil. When the communication operating frequency changes in the present invention, the servo detection circuit will automatically control the motor to change the inductance of the variable inductor through the phase detection circuit for automatic tuning. The antenna tuning monitoring unit can receive data through the network port, and then control the relay group to switch the impedance and switch the inductance of the fixed tap inductance coil for impedance matching, realizing full-automatic tuning, flexible frequency band switching, and simplified tuning. There is no need for personnel to open the equipment chassis and use tools to manually switch, saving tuning time and preventing the risk of personnel operating with the chassis open without remembering to cut off the power.

[0010] An antenna tuning system applicable to medium wave, as Figure 1 shown, includes a standing wave detection circuit, a servo detection circuit, an antenna tuning monitoring unit, a DC motor, an impedance converter, a variable inductance coil, a fixed tap inductance coil, a relay group one, a relay group two, and a lightning arrester; During tuning, the control unit of the external transmitter sends the impedance parameters, motor tuning parameters, and fixed tap inductance parameters corresponding to the pre-stored operating frequency to the antenna tuning monitoring unit through the network port, and the antenna tuning monitoring unit issues the impedance parameters, motor tuning parameters, and fixed tap inductance parameter instructions to the relay group one, the servo detection circuit, and the relay group two respectively; When the radio frequency output signal of the external transmitter enters the standing wave detection circuit, forward and reverse power coupling is performed, and the coupled signal is sent to the antenna tuning monitoring unit to be converted into a standing wave ratio. The value of the standing wave ratio less than 1.3 is used as the judgment basis for successful tuning; the radio frequency output signal enters the servo detection circuit in sequence to detect the power signal entering the antenna tuning unit through servo detection, and the corresponding voltage and current signals are collected; when the voltage and current are in the same direction, the load is resistive and the motor does not move, when the voltage and current are not in the same direction, the load is reactive, and the motor is controlled to rotate to change the inductance value of the variable inductance coil; the radio frequency signal is then transmitted to the antenna through the impedance converter, variable inductance coil, fixed tap inductance coil, and lightning arrester in sequence, so that the antenna is in a series resonance state.

[0011] As Figure 2 shown, the standing wave detection circuit includes a forward RF coupling circuit, a reverse RF coupling circuit, and a diode detection circuit. The output RF signal of the external transmitter passes through the coupling circuit and then through the diode detection circuit to convert the RF signal into a required voltage signal and output it to the antenna tuner monitoring unit; the forward power sampling and reverse power sampling signals obtained by the standing wave detection circuit are then used by the antenna tuner monitoring unit to calculate the standing wave ratio, and determine whether the standing wave ratio reaches the appropriate range according to the reference value set during the previous debugging. Only when the appropriate range is reached is the tuning successful; Among them, the forward power sampling signal and the reverse power sampling signal , the antenna tuner monitoring unit uses a formula to calculate the standing wave ratio SWR, and the specific calculation is as follows: ; When the transmitter and the antenna are perfectly matched, the standing wave ratio SWR = 1. If the transmitter is not matched, that is, there is a standing wave, then SWR > 1. Generally, SWR < 1.3 meets the transmission requirements.

[0012] As Figure 3 shown, the servo detection circuit includes a current mutual inductance coupler, a double-phase detection circuit, and a motor control circuit; The output signal of the external transmitter first passes through the standing wave detection circuit and then through the servo detection circuit. The servo detection circuit samples the current and voltage and then compares the phases, and converts them into appropriate voltage signals to drive the DC motor to rotate, changing the inductance of the adjustable inductance coil to make the antenna in a series resonance state; Among them, the double-phase detection circuit compares the phases of the RF current and the RF voltage, and uses phase detection to determine whether the antenna circuit is capacitive or inductive; the capacitive voltage sampling signal will output a positive voltage after detection; while the inductive voltage sampling signal will output a negative voltage after detection, successfully realizing phase detection, and driving the DC motor according to the polarity of the output voltage of the phase detection, changing the inductance of the adjustable inductance coil to make the antenna in a series resonance state; The double-phase detection circuit outputs a DC voltage signal in the positive half cycle of the current sampling signal and also outputs a DC negative voltage signal in the negative half cycle of the current sampling signal; The motor control circuit includes two groups of relay switches, which switch the voltage signal from the double-phase detection circuit and the motor control command from the antenna tuner monitoring unit. When the antenna tuning system automatically tunes, the voltage signal from the double-phase detection circuit is used to drive the DC motor. When the antenna tuning system software manually tunes, the motor control command from the antenna tuner monitoring unit is used to drive the DC motor.

[0013] As Figure 4As shown, the antenna tuner monitoring unit includes a single-chip microcomputer and a network chip; the circuit diagram of the single-chip microcomputer of the antenna tuner monitoring unit is as Figure 7 shown.

[0014] Among them, the single-chip microcomputer has a storage unit for storing impedance parameters corresponding to the operating frequency, motor tuning parameters, and fixed tap inductor parameters.

Then, the dual-phase detection circuit in the servo detection circuit converts the RF signal of the current mutual inductance coupler into a voltage signal with polarity, drives the motor, changes the inductance of the adjustable inductor coil, performs automatic tuning, searches for the resonance point, makes the antenna in a series resonance state. At the same time, the coupled signal of the standing wave detection circuit is converted into a voltage signal and output to the antenna tuner monitoring unit. The voltage signal is converted into a numerical standing wave ratio through the single-chip microcomputer. According to the size of the standing wave ratio, it is judged whether the tuning is successful. If not, then cooperate with the software algorithm of the single-chip microcomputer to send a motor control instruction to the servo detection circuit, make the motor rotate one week, search for the resonance point. After finding the resonance point, make the motor rotate to the angle of the resonance point. If the resonance point has not been found all the time, the single-chip microcomputer sends an alarm signal to the external transmitter control unit through the network chip, requesting manual tuning.

[0015] The speed of the DC motor is 1RPM, and it can be more accurately adjusted to the required angle of the motor during tuning. The DC motor is controlled by the antenna tuner monitoring unit to drive the servo detection circuit to perform automatic tuning and manual tuning.

[0016] The impedance converter is used to match the impedance of the transmitter to the impedance of different antennas, and the impedance is adjusted by changing different taps on the impedance converter.

[0017] The variable inductor coil is used to change the inductance of the variable inductor coil by the angle of motor rotation.
