Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of communication technologies, and particularly relates to a method and device for testing the performance of a receiver of a frequency-hopping communication device. Background Art
[0002] Frequency-hopping communication is a commonly used spread-spectrum communication method. By continuously changing the carrier frequency of the transmitted signal, it aims to achieve anti-interference, anti-interception, and ensure communication quality. By continuously changing the carrier frequency, frequency-hopping communication makes it difficult for interference signals to continuously track and interfere. In a complex electromagnetic environment with multipath interference, co-channel interference, or adjacent-channel interference, etc., frequency-hopping communication can maintain the stability and reliability of communication; since the carrier frequency of frequency-hopping communication changes randomly, it is difficult for the enemy to predict and capture the communication signal. In occasions such as military communication that require high confidentiality, frequency-hopping communication can play an important role; through reasonable frequency planning and allocation, frequency-hopping communication can enable multiple users to share the same frequency band, improving the utilization rate of the spectrum and the capacity of the communication system; frequency-hopping communication can adapt to different communication environments and service requirements. For example, under different communication distances, transmission rates, and bit error rate requirements, frequency-hopping communication can adjust the frequency-hopping pattern and parameters to meet the requirements;
[0003] Frequency-hopping communication devices have many advantages such as strong anti-interference ability, high anti-interception performance, high spectrum utilization rate, strong adaptability, and anti-fading characteristics, making them play an important role in secure communication. Objectively and accurately testing and evaluating the performance of frequency-hopping communication devices is an important task. The sensitivity of the device is a key technical indicator for measuring the superiority of the communication device performance;
[0004] The traditional method for testing the sensitivity of a receiver of a frequency-hopping communication device is completed in the fixed-frequency communication state. Although this method is easy to operate, it ignores the inaccurate performance evaluation that may be caused by the frequency-hopping working state, and at the same time does not conform to the working conditions of the device itself. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and device for testing the performance of a receiver of a frequency-hopping communication device, so as to achieve objective and accurate testing and evaluation of the sensitivity of the receiver of the frequency-hopping communication device.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

According to the working frequency range of the device under test, determine a suitable measurement frequency, and measure and calibrate the transmission power of the signal of the device to be accompanied by using a frequency-hopping device sensitivity measurement device according to the measurement frequency;
[0009] S2. Connect the device under test to the signal source and the device to be measured to the spectrum analyzer. Adjust the attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator to 0 dB and measure and record the loss of the test link.
[0010] S3. Connect the device to be measured and the device under test to the test link and power them on to work in the frequency hopping state. The device to be measured sends an interrogation signal, and the device under test responds. Adjust the attenuation of the adjustable attenuator 1 according to the response result of the device under test, and statistically record the maximum attenuation value when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement.

[0016] The selection of the appropriate measurement frequency should follow the principle that the link loss fluctuation of the selected adjacent frequencies should not be too large. For the low frequency band, avoid octave frequencies for adjacent frequencies; for the high frequency band, appropriately increase the interval between adjacent frequencies to moderately reduce the measurement workload.
[0017] Preferably, measuring and calibrating the transmission power of the signal of the device to be measured according to the measurement frequency using a measuring device includes:

[0026] Preferably, the formula for calculating the receiving sensitivity of the DUT is as follows:
[0027] P sensitivity = P source - L fad_1_max
[0028] P sensitivity = P sen_1 , P sen_2 ,…P sen_n
[0029] Where the maximum value of P sen_1 , P sen_2 ,…P sen_n is taken as the receiving sensitivity of the DUT. P source is the signal power of the device under test, and L fad_1_max is the maximum attenuation value when the DUT meets the minimum recognition probability requirement.
[0030] Preferably, the calculation formula for the dynamic range of the receiver of the device under test is as follows:

[0045] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation manner of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0046] As shown in the attached Figure 1 and the attached Figure 3 shown:
[0047] Embodiment 1: This embodiment provides a method for testing the performance of the receiver of a frequency hopping communication device, including:
[0048] S1. According to the operating frequency range [30 MHz, 87.975 MHz] of the device under test, determine appropriate measurement frequencies 30 MHz, 33 MHz, 36 MHz... 88.975 MHz, and use the sensitivity measurement device of the frequency hopping device to measure and calibrate the transmission power of the signal of the device to be accompanied according to the measurement frequencies;
[0049] Specifically, using the measurement device to measure and calibrate the transmission power of the signal of the device to be accompanied according to the measurement frequencies includes:
[0050] The device under test emits measurement signals at appropriate measurement frequencies of 30 MHz, 33 MHz, 36 MHz... 88.975 MHz, and uses a power meter to measure and record the signal power P L = 10.2 dBm, 10.5 dBm, 10.4 dBm... 10.5 dBm;
[0051] Replace the device under test with a signal source, and send a continuous wave signal with a power of 0 dBm at appropriate measurement frequencies of 30 MHz, 33 MHz, 36 MHz... 88.975 MHz, and use a power meter to measure and record the signal power P s = -30.3 dBm, -30.3 dBm, -30.4 dBm... -32.6 dBm;
[0052] Based on the measured signal power P L and the signal power P s , calculate the signal transmission power of the device under test at the appropriate measurement frequencies of 30 MHz, 33 MHz, 36 MHz... 88.975 MHz. The formula is as follows:
[0053] P source = 40.5 dBm, 40.8 dBm, 40.8 dBm... 43.1 dBm;
[0054] S2. Connect the device under test to the signal source and the device under test to the spectrum analyzer. Adjust the attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator to 0 dB and measure and record the loss of the test link;
[0055] Connect the device under test to the signal source and the device under test to the spectrum analyzer. Adjust the attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator to 0 dB and measure and record the loss of the test link, including:
[0056] Turn on the signal source and the spectrum analyzer. The signal source sends a single-tone signal and measures according to the appropriate measurement frequencies of 30 MHz, 33 MHz, 36 MHz... 88.975 MHz. Based on the signal source transmission power and the spectrum analyzer reading, statistically calculate the loss Line of the test link los = 87.2 dB, 87.2 dB, 87.3 dB... 88 dB;
[0057] S3. Connect the device under test and the device under test to the test link and power on to work in the frequency hopping state. The device under test sends an interrogation signal, and the device under test responds. Adjust the attenuation of the adjustable attenuator 1 according to the response result of the device under test, and statistically calculate and record the maximum attenuation value L when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement fad_1_max = 55 dB;
[0058] During the process of adjusting the attenuation of the adjustable attenuator 1, the adjustment is carried out step by step in the order of decreasing attenuation. Each time, the attenuation is adjusted by 1 dB, and the accompanying device sends signals 400 times;
[0059] S4. According to the signal power P of the accompanying device source = 40.5 dBm, 40.8 dBm, 40.8 dBm…43.4 dBm and the maximum attenuation value L when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement fad_1_max = 55 dB, the maximum value calculated is taken as the receiving sensitivity of the device under test, -99.9 dBm;
[0060] P sensitivity = -101.7 dBm, -101.4 dBm, -101.5 dBm…-99.9 dBm. Take the maximum value of P sensitivity -99.9 dBm as the receiving sensitivity of the device under test;
[0061] S5. Combining with the sensitivity test, reduce the attenuation of the adjustable attenuator 1, and statistically record the maximum attenuation value L when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement fad_1_min = 10 dB;
[0062] S6. Calculate the receiver dynamic range of the device under test, 45 dB, according to the maximum attenuation value and the minimum attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator 1.
[0063] This method can test and obtain the receiver sensitivity and dynamic range of the device under test in the frequency hopping working state, restore and measure the technical performance of the device under test in the normal working state to the greatest extent, and realize the dynamic measurement of the performance state of the device under test;
[0064] It can make the communication device work in the frequency hopping state, test its receiving signal sensitivity and dynamic range, and give an objective and accurate evaluation result by statistically analyzing the test results of multiple times, so as to realize the objective evaluation of the performance of the frequency hopping communication device.
[0065] Specifically, according to the working frequency range of the device under test, the appropriate measurement frequencies are determined as follows:
[0066] Remove the antenna of the accompanying device, connect the accompanying device to the power meter with a radio frequency cable, and connect an attenuator with appropriate withstand power and attenuation value in series between the accompanying device and the instrument;
[0067] The selection of appropriate measurement frequencies should follow that the link loss fluctuations of the selected adjacent frequencies should not be too large to avoid expanding the measurement error. For the low-frequency band, the adjacent frequencies should avoid octaves; for the high-frequency band, the interval between adjacent frequencies should be appropriately increased to moderately reduce the measurement workload.
[0068] Specifically, when the attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator 1 appears as 0 dB during the measurement and the device under test can still correctly identify the measurement signal, appropriately reduce the attenuation value of the fixed attenuator until the device under test can no longer correctly identify the measurement signal.
[0069] Specifically, the calculation formula for the received sensitivity of the device under test is as follows:
[0070] P sensitivity =P source -L fad_1_max
[0071] P sensitivity =P sen_1 ,P sen_2 ,…P sen_n
[0072] Among them, take the maximum value of P sen_1 ,P sen_2 ,…P sen_n as the received sensitivity of the device under test, P source is the signal power of the accompanying test device, and L fad_1_max is the maximum attenuation value when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement.
[0073] Specifically, the calculation formula for the receiver dynamic range of the device under test is as follows:
[0074] P dynamic_range =L fad_1_max -L fad_1_min
[0075] Among them, P dynamic_range is the receiver dynamic range of the device under test, L fad_1_max is the maximum attenuation value when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement, and L fad_1_min is the maximum attenuation value when the device under test meets the minimum recognition probability requirement.
[0076] As can be seen from the above, the test process is as follows:
[0077] Determine the measurement calibration frequency;
[0078] Calibrate the power of the accompanying test device;
[0079] Build the measurement device and measure and record the test link loss;
[0080] Turn on the device and measure;
[0081] Adjust the attenuation value of the adjustable attenuator 1;
[0082] Whether the recognition probability requirement is met. If it is determined to be no, return to the previous step. If it is determined to be yes, proceed to the next step;
[0083] Statistically calculate the sensitivity and dynamic range of the device under test;
[0084] End.
[0085] As attached Figure 2 shown:

[0087] The input end of the fixed attenuator 1 is connected to the radio frequency interface of the antenna of the device under test through a radio frequency cable.

[0089] The isolator 1 is connected to the variable attenuator 1 through a radio frequency cable, and the isolator 2 is connected to the variable attenuator 2 through a radio frequency cable.
[0090] As can be seen from the above, at the device under test end and the accompanying device under test end, 40 dB fixed attenuators 1 and 2 are respectively connected according to the device signal transmission power, the maximum power that the two circulators can withstand, etc.;
[0091] The input end of the circulator 1 is connected to a variable attenuator 1 with a step of 1 dB and a maximum of 70 dB. The output end of the circulator 1 is connected to a variable attenuator 2 with a step of 1 dB and a maximum of 70 dB;
