Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of signal processing, and in particular, to a harmonic suppression method, system, and terminal device. Background Art

[0002] Broadband high-power amplifiers are widely used in fields such as electromagnetic compatibility, electronic countermeasures, and active phased array radars. Due to the nonlinear characteristics of the semiconductor devices used in the amplifiers, harmonic distortion is introduced, which seriously affects the signal quality and causes distortion in precise interference strikes and high-quality signal processing. The high harmonic suppression methods of conventional broadband amplifiers are as follows and have certain limitations in use: 1. The existing method using switches and filter banks first segments the frequency band using switches so that each segment is a narrowband signal, and then filters are configured at the output ends of each narrowband signal for harmonic suppression. However, because the switches have low power tolerance and large insertion losses, they are often used in small signal generators and cannot meet the requirements of high-power amplifiers; 2. The power back-off technology generally uses a power amplifier tube with 6 dB higher power than the required power for power back-off, but this results in low power usage efficiency of high-power tubes and high costs; 3. Using the 1 / 4 short-circuit line principle, specific harmonic difference frequency points are short-circuited to ground by 1 / 4, and the fundamental frequency signal is in an open state, but this matching is often processed at point frequencies or narrowband signals and cannot achieve broadband harmonic suppression; 4. The feedforward predistortion compensation technology can achieve harmonic suppression effects, but because the output signals of each frequency point of the amplifier need to be coupled, the signals are processed in the reverse direction, and the scanning and storage are configured in the FPGA, which requires a high signal processing rate of the FPGA, and the system complexity is large and the cost is high.

[0027] The reference to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" etc. in the specification of the present application means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment is included in one or more embodiments of the present application. Thus, statements such as "in one embodiment", "in some embodiments", "in other some embodiments", "in still other embodiments", etc. that appear in different places in this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, but mean "one or more but not all embodiments", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways.

[0028] In order to illustrate the technical solutions described in the present application, the following will be described through specific embodiments.

[0029] The present application provides a harmonic suppression method, which can avoid affecting the signal quality due to harmonic distortion and bring distortion to precise interference strikes and high-quality signal processing.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 ,Figure 1 This is a flowchart for implementing a harmonic suppression method provided by an embodiment of the present application, including the following steps: S11: Obtain a preset radio frequency input signal; In this embodiment, in order to avoid affecting the signal quality and causing distortion to precise interference strikes and high-quality signal processing, a preset radio frequency input signal is obtained so that the preset radio frequency input signal can be processed, solving the problem of high harmonic suppression of broadband power amplifiers, and thus enabling signal transmission to better meet user requirements.

[0031] It can be understood that in the periodic oscillation of the preset radio frequency input signal, the preset radio frequency input signal includes a fundamental wave and harmonics. The sine wave component equal to the longest period of this oscillation is called the fundamental wave. The frequency corresponding to this period is called the fundamental frequency. The sine wave components whose frequencies are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency are called harmonics.

[0032] Definition of fundamental wave: The lowest frequency component of the composite wave of the preset radio frequency input signal.

[0033] Definition of harmonic: It refers to the components of each order greater than an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency obtained by Fourier series decomposition of a periodic non-sinusoidal alternating quantity, usually called high-order harmonics.

[0034] In some embodiments, regarding when to obtain the preset radio frequency input signal, it includes but is not limited to the following scenarios: Scenario 1: Obtain the preset radio frequency input signal when it is detected that the target signal receiving device is started.

[0035] Scenario 2: Obtain the user profile of the user of the target signal receiving device, and when it is determined through the user profile and the current time information that the user is at the time point of processing the target signal demand task, obtain the preset radio frequency input signal.

[0036] Scenario 3: Periodically obtain the preset radio frequency input signal when it is detected that the target signal receiving device is in an operating state.

[0037] S12: Perform power division processing on the preset radio frequency input signal through a first preset power division strategy to obtain a first branch signal and a second branch signal, and a third branch signal and a fourth branch signal. There is a first preset phase difference between the second branch signal and the first branch signal, and there is a second preset phase difference between the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to effectively suppress harmonics, the preset RF input signal is divided by a first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a first branch signal and a second branch signal, as well as a third branch signal and a fourth branch signal, and a first preset phase difference exists between the obtained second branch signal and the first branch signal, and a second preset phase difference exists between the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal. Therefore, when signal synthesis is performed subsequently, based on the phase difference, harmonics can be effectively suppressed.

[0039] It can be understood that according to different harmonic processing requirements, the first preset phase difference and the second preset phase difference can be preset according to actual needs. For example, the first preset phase difference is set to 180 degrees and the second preset phase difference is set to 180 degrees, or the first preset phase difference is set to 90 degrees and the second preset phase difference is set to 90 degrees.

[0040] S13: Use a preset signal synthesis strategy to perform signal synthesis processing on the first branch signal and the second branch signal, as well as the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal, to obtain an RF output signal that meets the preset signal conditions.

[0041] In this embodiment, in order to obtain a signal after suppressing harmonics, a preset signal synthesis strategy is used to perform signal synthesis processing on the first branch signal and the second branch signal, as well as the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal, to obtain an RF output signal that meets the preset signal conditions.

[0042] It can be understood that the preset signal conditions refer to the user's requirements for the harmonics of the signal, such as the harmonics in the signal being 0, or the signal including strong harmonics.

[0043] The harmonic suppression method provided by the embodiment of the present application, after obtaining the preset RF input signal, divides the preset RF input signal by a first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a first branch signal and a second branch signal with a first preset phase difference therebetween, and a third branch signal and a fourth branch signal with a second preset phase difference therebetween. When using a preset signal synthesis strategy to perform signal synthesis processing on the first branch signal and the second branch signal, as well as the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal, because a first preset phase difference exists between the first branch signal and the second branch signal, when the harmonics in the fundamental waves and harmonics respectively included in the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal are synthesized, due to the phase difference between the harmonics of the branch signals, the harmonics can be effectively suppressed during synthesis, while the fundamental waves of the branch signals are not affected. That is, through the solution of the present application, a good harmonic suppression effect can be achieved, that is, an RF output signal that meets the preset signal conditions is obtained.

[0044] Combined with Figure 2, in some embodiments of the present application, the process of splitting the preset RF input signal by the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a first branch signal, a second branch signal, a third branch signal, and a fourth branch signal includes: S21: Perform a first power splitting process on the preset RF input signal by the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a fifth branch signal and a sixth branch signal, where there is a third preset phase difference between the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal; S22: Perform a second power splitting process on the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal respectively by the second preset power splitting strategy to obtain a first branch signal, a second branch signal, a third branch signal, and a fourth branch signal.

[0045] In this embodiment, in order to better suppress the harmonic signals of the preset input RF signal, perform a first power splitting process on the preset RF input signal by the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a fifth branch signal and a sixth branch signal with a third preset phase difference therebetween. Then, perform a second power splitting process on the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal respectively by the second preset power splitting strategy to obtain a first branch signal, a second branch signal, a third branch signal, and a fourth branch signal, so that the fundamental wave synthesis of the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal with corresponding preset phase differences therebetween is not affected, and the harmonic synthesis is 0, achieving a good harmonic suppression effect.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the signals between the two branch arms included in the preset power splitter have a preset phase difference. The process of performing a first power splitting process on the preset RF input signal by the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain a fifth branch signal and a sixth branch signal includes: Process the preset RF input signal through the two branch arms of the preset power splitter based on the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal.

[0047] In this embodiment, after obtaining the preset RF input signal, in order to better process the harmonic signals included in the preset RF input signal, process the preset RF input signal through the two branch arms of the preset power splitter based on the first preset power splitting strategy to obtain the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal.

[0048] Among them, the first preset power splitting strategy refers to the power splitting requirements set by the user according to the actual usage scenario. When the signal passes through the power splitter (power divider), the power and voltage of the signal usually change to meet the user's needs, that is, after the preset RF input signal is processed by the preset power splitter, the signal power and voltage of the branch signals meet the user's requirements.

[0049] For example, when the preset power divider is an equal-power divider, the input power of the preset RF input signal is divided into two equal parts, and the power of each output port is half of the input power. That is, the power corresponding to the fifth and sixth signals is half of the preset RF input signal.

[0050] Exemplarily, the T-type waveguide power division / synthesis method is adopted, that is, a method of cooperating the preset power divider and the preset synthesizer. The 180° phase difference of the two branches of the T-type power division / synthesis is used to synthesize 4-way power amplifier chips, which improves the harmonic suppression in the 18-26.5 GHz broadband, and has the advantages of high synthesis efficiency, large output power, low complexity and low cost.

[0051] The specific principle is as follows: The input signal of +32 dBm enters the BJ220 waveguide standard port. The length and width of the standard waveguide port are 10.668 mm × 4.318 mm. Then it is T-type power-divided into 2 ways, and the phase difference between the two branch arms is 180°. Each way is impedance-transformed into a BJ320 standard port, and then T-type power-divided into 4 ways. The phase difference between every two branch arms is 180°. Waveguide-to-microstrip impedance transformation is performed at the 4 output waveguide ports, that is, waveguide-to-microstrip impedance transformation is performed at the output ports of the 4 branch arms of the preset power divider. The impedance becomes 50 ohms, and the power on the microstrip line is +25.5 dBm, which is used to drive 4 power amplifier chips to amplify to 40.5 dBm respectively. Then waveguide T-type 4-way synthesis is performed (this synthesis is reciprocal with T-type 4-way power division), that is, the preset synthesizer receives each branch signal from each branch arm of the preset power divider by respectively setting the branch arm channels connected to each branch arm of the preset power divider, and then performs signal synthesis, that is, synthesizes the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal, and synthesizes the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal to obtain the RF output signal under the preset signal conditions, that is, finally synthesizes a high-power output of 40 W, and the second harmonic suppression is ≥ 65 dBc.

[0052] In addition, the BJ220 standard waveguide is used for 4-way power division / synthesis in the range of 18-26.5 GHz. The inner cavity of the waveguide uses air as the medium, and the air breakdown field strength is , with high power capacity, which can meet the transmission of high-power signals. At the same time, the main mode transmission frequency band of the BJ220 waveguide is 18-26.5 GHz, and the harmonic frequency is 36-53 GHz, which is far outside the waveguide transmission frequency band, and further uses the out-of-band harmonic suppression of the waveguide main transmission mode.

[0053] In some embodiments, each branch arm channel of the preset synthesizer connected to each branch arm of the preset power divider is connected to each branch arm of the preset power divider through a waveguide-to-microstrip direct-through RF board.

[0054] Among them, the waveguide-to-microstrip direct-through RF board is a RF device used to convert waveguide transmission signals and coaxial cable transmission signals.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, each branch arm of the preset power divider further includes two branch arms, and the signal phases between the two branch arms differ by a preset degree, and each branch arm is connected to one power amplifier chip; The second power division processing of the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal respectively by the second preset power division strategy to obtain the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal includes: Through the two branch arms of each branch arm of the preset power divider and the power amplifier chips connected to each branch arm, the second power division processing is respectively performed on the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal by using the second preset power division strategy to obtain the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal.

[0056] In this embodiment, in order to more effectively suppress harmonics, through the two branch arms of each branch arm of the preset power divider and the power amplifier chips connected to each branch arm, the second power division processing is respectively performed on the fifth branch signal and the sixth branch signal by using the second preset power division strategy, that is, the fifth branch signal is power-divided and the signal is amplified by the power amplifier chip to obtain the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the sixth branch signal is power-divided and the signal is amplified by the power amplifier chip to obtain the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal.

[0057] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 4 , after the preset radio frequency input signal is input into the preset power divider of the four-way waveguide, the fifth branch signal with a 90-degree phase waveform and the sixth branch signal with a -90-degree phase waveform are first obtained. Then, the fifth branch signal is power-divided again into a branch signal with a 180-degree phase waveform and a branch signal with a 0-degree phase waveform, and at the same time, the sixth branch signal is power-divided again into a branch signal with a 0-degree phase waveform and a branch signal with a 180-degree phase waveform, and the power amplification processing of the signals is respectively performed through the power amplifier chip P1, so as to respectively obtain the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal. It adopts a T-shaped waveguide power division / synthesis method, uses the 180° phase difference between the two arms of the T-shaped power division / synthesis to suppress harmonics, and makes full use of the low-loss characteristics of the waveguide, so that the power amplifier synthesis efficiency is high, the power capacity is large, the overall design complements each other, the complexity is low, and the design is low-cost, providing a core basic module and an effective solution for higher power levels and harmonic suppression.

[0058] In some embodiments, each branch arm channel of the preset synthesizer connected to each branch arm of the preset power divider is connected to each branch arm of the preset power divider through a waveguide-to-coaxial conversion direct-through radio frequency board and a power amplifier chip P1.

[0059] In combination with Figure 3, in some embodiments of the present application, it further includes: a preset synthesizer, the preset synthesizer is respectively connected to the output ends of each power amplifier chip, the first branch signal and the second branch signal have opposite phases, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal have opposite phases.

[0060] Performing signal synthesis processing on the first branch signal and the second branch signal, and the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal by using a preset signal synthesis strategy to obtain a radio frequency output signal meeting the preset signal conditions, including: S31: Synthesize the first branch signal and the second branch signal by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer to obtain a first synthesized signal; S32: Synthesize the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer to obtain a second synthesized signal; S33: Perform signal synthesis processing on the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer to obtain a radio frequency output signal meeting the preset signal conditions, wherein there is a fourth preset phase difference between the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal.

[0061] In this embodiment, in order to suppress harmonics, the first branch signal and the second branch signal are synthesized by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer, so that the first branch signal and the second branch signal with a preset phase difference are synthesized to obtain a first synthesized signal; at the same time, the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal are synthesized by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer, so that the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal with a preset phase difference are synthesized to obtain a second synthesized signal, and then, the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal are subjected to signal synthesis processing by using the preset signal synthesis strategy through the preset synthesizer to obtain a radio frequency output signal meeting the preset signal conditions, thereby suppressing the harmonics of multiple signals with phase differences respectively based on the phase differences to obtain a radio frequency output signal with suppressed harmonics.

[0062] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 4 , the first branch signal, the second branch signal, the third branch signal, and the fourth branch signal are respectively input into a four-way waveguide synthesizer composed of a preset power divider and a preset synthesizer. Then, the first branch signal and the second branch signal are synthesized to obtain a first synthesized signal with a 90-degree phase waveform. Then, the third branch signal and the fourth branch signal are synthesized to obtain a second synthesized signal with a -90-degree phase waveform. Finally, the first synthesized signal and the second synthesized signal with opposite phases are subjected to signal synthesis processing to obtain a radio frequency output signal meeting the preset signal conditions.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, based on a preset formula in a preset signal synthesis strategy, a preset synthesizer determines the fundamental wave combined power, the synthesized output voltage of the fundamental wave signal, the harmonic combined power, and the synthesized output voltage of the harmonic signal of the first synthesized signal, the second synthesized signal, and the radio frequency output signal respectively. In some embodiments of the present application, when the preset synthesizer executes the preset signal synthesis strategy, the preset formula used is as follows: The two arms included in the preset power divider, where the fundamental wave voltage of arm 1 is: , and the fundamental wave voltage of waveguide branch arm 2: , The preset degree of the phase difference between the electric fields of the two arms is 180°, so the fundamental wave signals of the two input signals at the synthesis end are out of phase. Therefore, the output voltage of the fundamental wave signals at the two synthesis ends is: (1) Where .

[0064] Since , where Z is the impedance, P is the power, and v is the voltage, the fundamental wave combined power is: (2) When , P 1,基 = P 2,基= P, .

[0065] Similarly, the second harmonic voltage of arm 1 is: , and the second harmonic voltage of arm 2: , and the voltage at the harmonic synthesis port is: (3) The power at the harmonic synthesis port is: (4) From formulas (2) and (4), it can be known that: When , , When , , therefore, by using the 180° phase difference synthesis of waveguide T-type 4-way power division / synthesis, the fundamental wave synthesis is not affected, and the harmonic synthesis is 0, achieving a good harmonic suppression effect.

[0066] Based on the above calculation formula, the fundamental combined power of the first combined signal corresponding to the preset radio frequency input signal, the combined output voltage of the fundamental signal, the harmonic combined power, the combined output voltage of the harmonic signal, the fundamental combined power of the second combined signal, the combined output voltage of the fundamental signal, the harmonic combined power, the combined output voltage of the harmonic signal, and the fundamental combined power of the radio frequency output signal synthesized based on the first combined signal and the second combined signal, the combined output voltage of the fundamental signal, the harmonic combined power, and the combined output voltage of the harmonic signal can be calculated and determined.
