[0073] It should be understood that the examples and illustrations in this application are for illustrative purposes, and that deviations and variations may be constructed and deployed according to the teachings of this application without departing from the scope of this application. Before describing in detail at least one embodiment of the present application, it should be understood that this application is not necessarily limited to the details of the construction and arrangement of the components and / or methods set forth in the following description and / or illustrated in the drawings and / or examples. This application is capable of other embodiments or can be practiced or implemented in different ways.

[0074] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and / or scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as those of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. Although methods and materials similar to those described in this application or equivalent can be used to practice or test the embodiment of the application, exemplary methods and / or materials are described below. In the event of a conflict, the present application specification (including definitions) shall prevail. In addition, these materials, methods and embodiments are only illustrative and are not intended to be necessarily restricted.

[0075] In the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and have no special meaning.

[0076] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the device to be calibrated in the prior art. Figure 1As shown, the device to be calibrated is, for example, a power amplifier, which includes a first single-chip microcomputer, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), a signal generator, a signal amplifier, a load, a current sampling module, and a voltage sampling module. The load can be an ablation device, such as an ultrasonic generator or a pulsed electric field ablation device, which is not specifically limited here. When the power amplifier is operating, the first single-chip microcomputer provides a set DC voltage signal to the signal amplifier via the DAC, and provides a square wave signal of a set frequency to the signal amplifier via the signal generator. After receiving the DC voltage signal and the square wave signal, the signal amplifier adjusts the amplitude of the square wave signal using the DC voltage signal, amplifies the amplitude-adjusted square wave signal, and then transmits the amplified square wave signal to the load. The load converts the amplified square wave signal into a sinusoidal wave signal as the output signal of the power amplifier. The voltage sampling module samples the output signal, and the current sampling module samples the output signal. The sampled voltage and current signals are then output to the first single-chip microcomputer, allowing the first single-chip microcomputer to calculate the actual output power of the load.

[0077] In one optional embodiment, the power amplifier further includes a third communication interface electrically connected to the first single-chip microcomputer for communication between the first single-chip microcomputer and an external device (e.g., a host computer). In another optional embodiment, the power amplifier further includes an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) for storing parameters related to the power amplifier.

[0078] In general, the actual output power of the load and the set DC voltage signal and output frequency provided by the DAC should have a linear relationship P(out) = af(v,f), or a quadratic function relationship P(out) = af(v 2 ,f). Where P(out) is the actual output power, a is the adjustment coefficient, v is the voltage of the DC voltage signal provided by the DAC, and f is the output frequency. Because both the signal amplifier and the load are composed of many analog components, each of which may have errors, this can lead to significant errors in the signal amplifier and load. Therefore, the adjustment coefficient a will vary for each power amplifier, requiring individual calibration of each power amplifier.

[0079] Currently, the calibration steps for the power amplifier are as follows:

[0080] 1. Based on the power amplifier circuit design and theoretical calculations, a table is developed to show the relationship between the voltage value v and frequency value f of each DC voltage signal and the desired theoretical output power P1, P2, P3, ..., Pn. It is understood that at different frequencies f, as long as the DC voltage signal voltage value v is set to be the same, the theoretical output power may be the same. For example, taking the DC voltage signal voltage values ​​v of 1V, 2V, 3V, 4V, and 5V, and the output frequency values ​​f of 5MHz, 6MHz, and 7MHz, a table is established between v and f, as shown in Table 1.

[0081] Table 1. Power amplifier calibration parameters

[0082]

[0083] 2. After the DAC provides the voltage value v and the signal generator provides the frequency value f, the actual output power of the load is measured using a power calculation device, such as an oscilloscope or power meter. For example, as shown in Table 1, assuming that the voltage value of the set DC voltage signal provided by the DAC has an adjustment range of 1 to 5V and a frequency range of 5MHz to 7MHz, calibration can be performed every 1V and / or 1MHz. For example, the voltage can be varied while the frequency remains unchanged, or the voltage can be kept unchanged while the frequency is varied to obtain the actual output power P1-5MHz to P3-7MHz. This completes the calibration of all parameter combinations.

[0084] 3. By comparing the actual output power P' measured by the power calculation device with the corresponding expected theoretical output power P, the calibration coefficient an under different parameter combinations is calculated, where an = P' / P.

[0085] 4. Calculate the median a of the calibration coefficients an under different parameter combinations, and use the median a as the calibration coefficient to control the output of the power amplifier.

[0086] 5. The calibration coefficient obtained in step 4 is verified using the parameter combination shown in Table 1. In some embodiments, it is verified whether the error between the actual output power of the load output and the theoretical output power of the expected output is within a first expected error range. According to the current collected by the current acquisition module of the power amplifier and the voltage collected by the voltage sampling module, the actual output power is obtained, and whether the error between the determined output power and the expected output power is within a second expected error range. If both of the above are within the corresponding expected error range, a can be used as the calibration coefficient of the power amplifier to control the output of the power amplifier during the subsequent use of the power amplifier. If at least one is not within the corresponding expected error range, it is necessary to detect the hardware circuit of the power amplifier.

[0087] The above calibration steps are all manually operated, which is labor-intensive, low in efficiency, and prone to errors, thereby causing inaccurate output of the power amplifier.

[0088] To solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application obtains multiple initial calibration coefficients, multiple set input signal parameters, and multiple theoretical output powers, and then determines the initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient based on each initial calibration coefficient and the multiple set input signal parameters, so as to provide each initial calibration signal parameter group to the device to be calibrated, and obtains multiple output power groups, each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, each output power group includes multiple output powers, and the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group. Finally, according to each output power in each output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each output power, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from the multiple initial calibration coefficients. In this way, automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated can be achieved, which is beneficial to improving the calibration efficiency and calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated. At the same time, by determining the initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient and obtaining multiple output power groups, and then according to each output power in each output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each output power, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from the multiple initial calibration coefficients, thereby helping to improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0089] The above is the core concept of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application. The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0090] In one possible implementation, Figure 2 This is a flow chart of an automatic calibration method provided in an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment is applicable to the case where the device to be calibrated is automatically calibrated. The method can be executed by an automatic calibration device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The automatic calibration device can be configured in the processing module of the automatic calibration device. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0091] S110 , obtaining a plurality of initial calibration coefficients, a plurality of set input signal parameters, and a plurality of theoretical output powers.

[0092] The plurality of set input signal parameters correspond one to one with the plurality of theoretical output powers.

[0093] The initial calibration coefficient is a pre-calibration coefficient that has been predetermined for the device to be calibrated. In one optional embodiment, the initial calibration coefficient is determined by pre-calibrating the device to be calibrated. In another optional embodiment, the initial calibration coefficient can also be determined based on experience. This embodiment does not specifically limit the method for obtaining the initial calibration coefficient.

[0094] Setting input signal parameters can be understood as the initial DC voltage signal parameters used when calibrating the device to be calibrated. In some embodiments, when the DC voltage signal of the device to be calibrated has an adjustment range of 1 to 5V, the initial DC voltage signal parameters can be 1V, 2V, 3V, 4V, or 5V, meaning calibration is performed every 1V. In an alternative embodiment, calibration can also be performed every 0.5V. It should be noted that the more and more precise the initial DC voltage signal parameters, the more accurate the calibration of the device to be calibrated.

[0095] The theoretical output power is the power that the device to be calibrated is expected to output under set input signal parameters. In an optional embodiment, the theoretical output power is obtained by the device to be calibrated. For example, the device to be calibrated can be a power amplifier.

[0096] S120 , determining an initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient according to each initial calibration coefficient and a plurality of set input signal parameters, and providing each initial calibration signal parameter group to the device to be calibrated.

[0097] Each initial calibration signal parameter group includes multiple initial calibration signal parameters, each of which corresponds one-to-one to multiple set input signal parameters. Each initial calibration coefficient and each set input signal parameter can be used to determine an initial calibration parameter. The multiple initial calibration parameters determined by the same initial calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters constitute an initial calibration signal parameter group.

[0098] S130: Acquire multiple output power groups.

[0099] Each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, each output power group includes multiple output powers, and the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group.

[0100] Optionally, obtaining the multiple output power groups includes providing initial calibration parameters to the device to be calibrated, and obtaining the multiple output power groups based on a test output signal output by the device to be calibrated.

[0101] In some embodiments, after providing initial calibration signal parameters to the device to be calibrated, the device to be calibrated uses the initial calibration signal parameters as input signals, performs power amplification, and outputs a test output signal. The test output signal can be used to determine a current signal and / or a voltage signal, thereby determining the corresponding output power based on the current signal and / or voltage signal. It will be understood that each initial calibration signal parameter corresponds to a test output signal, and thus each initial calibration parameter corresponds to an output power.

[0102] In an optional embodiment, the test output signal output by the device to be calibrated is received by a power calculation device, such as an oscilloscope or a power meter, so that the power calculation device outputs a current signal and / or a voltage signal according to the test output signal.

[0103] S140 : Determine a target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated from a plurality of initial calibration coefficients according to each output power of each output power group and a theoretical output power corresponding to each output power.

[0104] It is understandable that the closer the actual output power of the device to be calibrated is to the theoretical output power, the better. Therefore, when the output power is closer to its corresponding theoretical output power, the corresponding initial calibration coefficient can be used as the calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated.

[0105] In an optional embodiment, the initial calibration coefficients corresponding to the output powers in the same output power group are the same. Through the output powers of the same output power group and the theoretical output powers corresponding to the output powers, the output power group in each output power group whose output power has the smallest difference with the corresponding theoretical output power can be determined, so that the initial calibration coefficient corresponding to the output power group can be used as the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated.

[0106] After obtaining multiple initial calibration coefficients, multiple set input signal parameters, and multiple theoretical output powers, an initial calibration signal parameter is determined based on each initial calibration coefficient and each set input signal parameter. The initial calibration signal parameter determined by the same initial calibration coefficient and the multiple set input signal parameters constitute an initial calibration signal parameter group, and each initial calibration signal parameter group is sent to the device to be calibrated. After providing each initial calibration signal parameter in the initial calibration signal parameter group to the device to be calibrated, the device to be calibrated uses the initial calibration signal parameter as an input signal and outputs a test output signal, thereby obtaining multiple output power groups based on the test output signal. Each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, and each output power group includes multiple output powers. The multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration parameter group. Since the initial calibration coefficients corresponding to the same output power group are the same, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated can be determined in each initial calibration coefficient based on the output powers of the same output power group and the theoretical output powers corresponding to each output power, which helps to improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0107] In this embodiment, by obtaining multiple initial calibration coefficients, multiple set input signal parameters, and multiple theoretical output powers, and then determining the initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient based on each initial calibration coefficient and the multiple set input signal parameters, so as to provide each initial calibration signal parameter group to the device to be calibrated, and obtaining multiple output power groups, each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, each output power group includes multiple output powers, and the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group. Finally, according to each output power in each output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each output power, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from the multiple initial calibration coefficients. In this way, automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated can be achieved, which is beneficial to improving the calibration efficiency and calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated. At the same time, by determining the initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient and obtaining multiple output power groups, and then according to each output power in each output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each output power, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from the multiple initial calibration coefficients, which helps to improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further adds steps on how to obtain the initial calibration coefficient, how to determine the initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient based on each initial calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters, and how to determine the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated from multiple initial calibration coefficients based on each output power in each output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each output power. Figure 3 As shown, the automatic calibration method specifically includes:

[0110] The initial coefficient reference value a can be understood as the reference value of multiple initial calibration coefficients, that is, the multiple initial calibration coefficients are determined based on the initial coefficient reference value a. The set coefficient ratio is the ratio of the initial coefficient reference value a, such as 98%, 99%, 100%, 101%, 102%, etc. The set coefficient ratio can be determined based on the calibration accuracy requirements of the device to be calibrated. The greater the number of set coefficient ratios and the denser the ratio intervals, the higher the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated. Conversely, the fewer the number of set coefficient ratios and the sparser the ratio intervals, the lower the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0111] S220 , obtaining a plurality of initial calibration coefficients according to the initial coefficient reference value and a plurality of set coefficient ratios.

[0112] The multiple setting coefficient ratios correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration coefficients.

[0113] In an optional embodiment, the product of the initial coefficient reference value and a plurality of set coefficient ratios is used as the plurality of initial calibration coefficients. The plurality of set coefficient ratios corresponds one-to-one to the plurality of initial calibration coefficients, i.e., the plurality of initial calibration coefficients are the product of the initial coefficient reference value and the plurality of set ratio coefficients. For example, if the plurality of set ratio coefficients are 98%, 99%, 100%, 101%a, and 102%, the plurality of initial calibration coefficients are 98%a, 99%a, 100%a, 101%a, and 102%a, respectively.

[0114] S230: Acquire multiple set input signal parameters and multiple theoretical output powers.

[0115] The plurality of set input signal parameters correspond one to one with the plurality of theoretical output powers.

[0116] S240 , obtaining a plurality of actual input voltage parameters according to each initial calibration coefficient and a plurality of set input signal parameters.

[0117] Each set input signal parameter corresponds to an actual input voltage parameter.

[0118] The actual input voltage parameters are the actual input voltage parameters supplied to the device being calibrated. If the device being calibrated is a power amplifier, the analog components within the amplifier may have errors, resulting in significant errors. To eliminate or reduce these errors, the set input signal parameters must be adjusted. The adjusted input voltage parameters are the actual input voltage parameters.

[0119] In an optional embodiment, the actual input voltage parameter is a product of an initial calibration coefficient and a set input signal parameter.

[0120] S250 , obtaining multiple actual input frequency parameters according to each initial calibration coefficient and multiple actual input voltage parameters.

[0121] Each actual input voltage parameter corresponds to an actual input frequency parameter. The initial calibration signal parameters include the actual input voltage parameter and the actual input frequency parameter.

[0122] When the device to be calibrated is a power amplifier, the output power of the power amplifier has a linear or quadratic function relationship with the input voltage and frequency parameters, that is, P(out) = af(v,f) or P(out) = af(v 2 ,f), where P(out) is the output power, a is the calibration coefficient, v is the voltage parameter, and f is the frequency parameter. Therefore, when the output power is constant, the actual input frequency is related to the initial calibration coefficient and the actual input voltage parameter. Thus, multiple actual input frequency parameters can be obtained based on each initial calibration coefficient and multiple actual input voltages.

[0123] S260: Acquire multiple output power groups.

[0124] Each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, and each output power group includes multiple output powers; the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group.

[0125] S270: Determine the parameters to be screened corresponding to the output power group according to the output powers and theoretical output powers of the same output power group.

[0126] The parameters to be screened may be understood to include parameters related to each output power and each theoretical output power.

[0127] In an optional embodiment, S270 includes: calculating a power error between each output power in each output power group and a corresponding theoretical output power; and determining a parameter to be screened corresponding to each output power group according to each power error.

[0128] In some embodiments, the power error is the absolute value of the difference between the output power corresponding to the same set input signal and the theoretical output power.

[0129] In an optional embodiment, the parameter to be screened includes a median and / or a root mean square determined based on each power error corresponding to the same output power group.

[0130] In an optional embodiment, after determining the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group based on each power error, it also includes: deleting the initial calibration coefficients corresponding to the parameters to be screened whose medians are greater than the preset medians, and / or deleting the initial calibration coefficients corresponding to the parameters to be screened whose root mean square is greater than the preset root mean square, so that when the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from the initial calibration coefficients based on the parameters to be screened corresponding to each determined output power group, the determined target calibration coefficient is more accurate, thereby helping to further improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0131] S280 , determining a target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated from a plurality of initial calibration coefficients according to the parameters to be screened corresponding to the output power groups.

[0132] Since the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group include the median and / or root mean square determined based on the power error corresponding to the output power group, the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group can reflect the difference between the output power of the output power group and the theoretical output power. Among them, the smaller the difference between the output power and the theoretical output power, the higher the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated may be. Therefore, the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated can be determined from multiple initial calibration coefficients based on the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group.

[0133] In an optional embodiment, the parameters to be screened include medians determined based on power errors corresponding to the same test power group; S280 includes: using the initial calibration coefficient corresponding to the parameter to be screened with the smallest median among the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group as the target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated. In this way, when the device to be calibrated provides an input signal based on the determined target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated, the actual output power of the device to be calibrated is closer to the theoretical output power, thereby potentially improving the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0134] In another optional embodiment, the parameters to be screened include root mean squares (RMSs) determined based on power errors corresponding to the same output power group; S280 includes the following step: using the initial calibration coefficient corresponding to the parameter to be screened with the smallest RMS among the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group as the target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated. In this way, when the device to be calibrated provides an input signal based on the determined target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated, the actual output power of the device to be calibrated is closer to the theoretical output power, thereby potentially improving the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0135] In another optional embodiment, the parameters to be screened include medians and root mean squares (RMSs) determined based on power errors corresponding to the same output power group. S280 includes: using the initial calibration coefficient corresponding to the parameter to be screened with the smallest average value of the median and the RMSs among the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group as the target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated. This helps further improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated.

[0136] S290 , determining a plurality of verification calibration signal parameters according to the target calibration coefficient and a plurality of set input signal parameters, and sending each verification calibration signal parameter to the device to be calibrated.

[0137] The multiple verification calibration signal parameters correspond one-to-one to the multiple set input signal parameters. The verification calibration signal parameters are input signals to the device to be calibrated when verifying whether the target calibration coefficient is qualified. In an optional embodiment, multiple actual input voltage parameters are obtained based on the target calibration coefficient and the multiple set input signal parameters, each set input signal parameter corresponding to an actual input voltage parameter; multiple actual input frequency parameters are obtained based on the target calibration coefficient and the multiple actual input voltage parameters, each actual input voltage parameter corresponding to an actual input frequency parameter; and the verification calibration parameters include the actual input voltage parameters and the actual input frequency parameters.

[0138] S2100. Obtain multiple verification output powers.

[0139] Among them, the multiple verification output powers correspond one-to-one to the multiple verification calibration signal parameters.

[0140] In at least one embodiment, after the verification calibration signal parameters are sent to the device to be calibrated, the device to be calibrated uses the verification calibration signal parameters as input signals, performs power amplification, and outputs a verification output signal, wherein the verification output signal can determine a verification current signal and / or a verification voltage signal, and thus, based on the verification current signal and / or the verification voltage signal, the corresponding verification output power can be determined. It is understood that each verification calibration signal parameter corresponds to a verification output signal, and thus each verification calibration signal corresponds to a verification output power. The verification output signal input by the device to be calibrated is received by the power calculation device, so that the power calculation device outputs a verification current signal and a verification voltage signal based on the verification output signal.

[0141] S2110. Determine whether automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified based on the multiple verified output powers and the multiple theoretical output powers.

[0142] The smaller the difference between the verified output power and the corresponding theoretical output power, the more accurate the calibration of the device to be calibrated is, and the more likely it is that the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified. Therefore, whether the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified can be determined based on multiple verified output powers and multiple theoretical output powers.

[0143] S2120: When the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated passes, the target calibration coefficient is sent to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated works under the calibration of the target calibration coefficient.

[0144] After determining the target calibration coefficient, multiple verification calibration signal parameters are determined based on the target calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters. Each verification calibration signal parameter is then provided to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated uses each verification calibration signal as an input signal, performs power amplification, and outputs a verification output signal, thereby obtaining multiple verification output powers based on the verification output signal. A determination is then made as to whether the device to be calibrated has passed automatic calibration based on the multiple verification output powers and the corresponding theoretical output powers. If the device to be calibrated has passed automatic calibration, the target calibration coefficient is sent to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated operates under the calibration of the target calibration coefficient, thereby facilitating accurate output of the device to be calibrated.

[0145] In this embodiment, by obtaining an initial coefficient reference value and multiple set coefficient ratios, and then obtaining multiple initial calibration coefficients based on the initial coefficient reference value and the multiple set coefficient ratios, the initial calibration coefficients are made more accurate. By obtaining multiple actual input voltage parameters based on each initial calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters, and then obtaining multiple actual input frequency parameters based on each initial calibration coefficient and the multiple actual input voltage parameters, each initial calibration signal parameter can be obtained. After obtaining multiple output power groups, the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group are determined according to the output powers of each output power group and the theoretical output powers corresponding to each output power, and the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated is determined from multiple initial calibration coefficients according to the parameters to be screened corresponding to each output power group, so that when the device to be calibrated provides an input signal based on the determined target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated, the actual output power of the device to be calibrated is closer to the theoretical output power, that is, it is beneficial to further improve the calibration accuracy of the device to be calibrated; after determining the target calibration coefficient of the device to be calibrated, multiple verification calibration signals are determined according to the target calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters, and each verification calibration signal is sent to the device to be calibrated, and then multiple verification output powers are obtained to determine whether the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified according to the multiple verification output powers and the multiple theoretical output powers, thereby determining whether there is any abnormality in the device to be calibrated itself, which is beneficial to ensure that the device to be calibrated can output accurately.

[0146] In one possible implementation, Figure 4 This is a flow chart of another automatic calibration method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further adds a step of how to obtain the initial coefficient reference value. Figure 4 As shown, the automatic calibration method specifically includes:

[0147] S310: Acquire an input frequency group and a plurality of set input signal parameters.

[0148] The input frequency group includes at least one input frequency. An input frequency can be understood as a frequency input when calibrating the device to be calibrated. For example, when the frequency range of the device to be calibrated is 5 MHz to 7 MHz, the input frequency group can include any one or more frequencies between 5 MHz and 7 MHz, such as 5 MHz, 6 MHz, and 7 MHz.

[0149] S320: Determine a target setting input signal parameter from a plurality of setting input signal parameters.

[0150] The target setting input signal parameters are the setting input signal parameters that are currently required to be provided to the device to be calibrated. The target setting input signal parameters may be selected randomly, from a plurality of setting input signal parameters in a forward-to-backward order, or from a plurality of setting input signal parameters in a backward-to-frontward order, without limitation herein.

[0151] S330: traverse at least one input frequency, and send the traversed input frequency and target setting input signal parameters to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated outputs an initial output signal.

[0152] After the traversed input frequency and target setting input signal parameters are sent to the device to be calibrated, the device to be calibrated uses the input frequency and target setting input signal parameters as input signals and outputs an initial output signal.

[0156] The initial output signal output by the device to be calibrated is received by the power calculation device, so that the power calculation device outputs a voltage signal and a current signal according to the initial output signal, thereby determining the initial output power according to the voltage signal and the current signal.

[0157] S360: Provide an initial output power to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated determines an initial coefficient reference value based on the initial output power.

[0158] In an optional embodiment, the device to be calibrated is configured to: determine multiple initial output power groups based on each initial output power; determine an initial calibration parameter group corresponding to each set input signal parameter based on each initial output power group and the corresponding theoretical output power to obtain multiple initial calibration parameter groups; determine an initial coefficient reference value based on the multiple initial calibration parameter groups.

[0159] Each initial output power group corresponds to a set input signal parameter; each initial output power group includes at least one initial output power, and at least one initial output power in the same initial output power group has a one-to-one correspondence with at least one input frequency. Each initial calibration parameter group includes at least one initial calibration parameter, and at least one initial calibration parameter in the same initial calibration parameter group has a one-to-one correspondence with at least one input frequency.

[0160] In an optional embodiment, based on each initial output power group and the corresponding theoretical output power, the initial calibration parameter group corresponding to each set input signal parameter is determined, including: based on each initial output power in each initial output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each initial output power group, obtaining the initial calibration parameter group corresponding to each set input signal parameter.

[0161] In an optional embodiment, the quotient of the initial output power and the theoretical output power corresponding to the initial output power is used as the initial calibration parameter, so that the initial calibration parameter group corresponding to each set input signal parameter is obtained based on each initial output power in each initial output power group and the theoretical output power corresponding to each initial output power group.

[0162] In an optional embodiment, an initial coefficient reference value is determined based on multiple initial calibration parameter groups, including: taking the median of the initial calibration parameters included in the multiple initial calibration parameter groups as the initial coefficient reference value, so that under the calibration of the initial coefficient reference value, the actual output power of the device to be calibrated may be closer to the theoretical output power.

[0168] S3110 , determining an initial calibration signal parameter group corresponding to each initial calibration coefficient according to each initial calibration coefficient and a plurality of set input signal parameters, and sending each initial calibration signal parameter group to the device to be calibrated.

[0169] Each initial calibration signal parameter group includes a plurality of initial calibration signal parameters.

[0170] S3120. Acquire multiple output power groups.

[0171] Each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, and each output power group includes multiple output powers; the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group.

A voltage signal and a current signal determined based on the initial output signal are obtained, an initial output power is determined based on the voltage signal and the current signal, and the initial output power is provided to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated determines an initial coefficient reference value based on the initial output power, thereby obtaining multiple initial calibration coefficients based on the initial coefficient reference values ​​and the ratios of the multiple set coefficients. In this way, the obtained initial calibration coefficients may be more accurate.

[0174] In one possible implementation, Figure 5 This is a flowchart of another automatic calibration method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further adds a step of how to determine whether the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified based on multiple verification output powers and multiple theoretical output powers. Figure 5 As shown, the automatic calibration method specifically includes:

[0175] S410 , obtaining a plurality of initial calibration coefficients, a plurality of set input signal parameters, and a plurality of theoretical output powers.

[0176] The plurality of set input signal parameters correspond one to one with the plurality of theoretical output powers.

[0178] Each initial calibration signal parameter group includes a plurality of initial calibration signal parameters; and the plurality of initial calibration signal parameters correspond one-to-one to the plurality of set input signal parameters.

[0179] S430: Acquire multiple output power groups.

[0180] Each output power group corresponds to an initial calibration signal parameter group, each output power group includes multiple output powers, and the multiple output powers in the output power group correspond one-to-one to the multiple initial calibration signal parameters in the initial calibration signal parameter group.

[0181] S440: Determine a target calibration coefficient for the device to be calibrated from a plurality of initial calibration coefficients according to each output power of each output power group and a theoretical output power corresponding to each output power.

[0182] S450 , determining a plurality of verification calibration signal parameters according to the target calibration coefficient and a plurality of set input signal parameters, and sending each verification calibration signal parameter to the device to be calibrated.

[0183] S460: Obtain multiple verification output powers.

[0184] Among them, the multiple verification output powers correspond one-to-one to the multiple verification calibration signal parameters.

[0185] S470: Determine a qualified output power among multiple verified output powers.

[0186] The difference between the qualified output power and the corresponding theoretical output power satisfies a first condition. The first condition is determined based on the calibration accuracy requirements for the device to be calibrated. In an optional embodiment, the first condition verifies that the difference between the output power and the corresponding theoretical output power is within an expected error range, where the expected error range is determined based on the calibration accuracy requirements for the device to be calibrated. The larger the expected error range, the lower the calibration accuracy; conversely, the smaller the expected error range, the higher the calibration accuracy.

[0187] S480: Determine a target ratio based on the number of qualified output powers and the number of verified output powers.

[0188] The target ratio is the ratio of the number of qualified output powers to the number of verified output powers.

[0189] S490: When the target ratio is greater than or equal to the preset ratio, determine that the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified, and send the target calibration coefficient to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated works under the calibration of the target calibration coefficient.

[0190] The preset ratio is determined based on the calibration accuracy requirements for the device to be calibrated. A higher preset ratio indicates a higher calibration accuracy for the device to be calibrated; conversely, a lower preset ratio indicates a lower calibration accuracy for the device to be calibrated. In one exemplary embodiment, the preset ratio is 100%, meaning that the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is considered qualified when the difference between each verified output power and the corresponding theoretical output power is within a preset range.

[0191] S4100: When the target ratio is less than the preset ratio, output a warning message.

[0192] The warning information is used to prompt the feedback module of the device to be calibrated to detect the need. The warning information may include, but is not limited to, warnings related to at least one of sound, light, and electricity. This embodiment does not limit the specific form of the warning information.

[0193] After the target calibration coefficient is determined, multiple verification calibration signal parameters are determined based on the target calibration coefficient and multiple set input signal parameters, and each verification calibration signal parameter is sent to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated uses each verification calibration signal as an input signal, performs power amplification and outputs multiple verification output signals, thereby obtaining multiple verification output powers based on the multiple verification output signals. Then, among the multiple verification output powers, a qualified output power whose difference with the corresponding theoretical output power meets the first condition is determined, and then the target ratio is determined based on the number of qualified output powers and the number of verification output powers. When the target ratio is greater than or equal to the preset ratio, it is determined that the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified. At this time, the target calibration coefficient is sent to the device to be calibrated, so that the device to be calibrated works under the calibration of the target calibration coefficient. On the contrary, when the target ratio is less than the preset ratio, a warning message is output to prompt the operator to re-test the feedback module of the device to be calibrated.

[0194] In this embodiment, a qualified output power is determined among multiple verified output powers, and then a target ratio is determined based on the number of qualified output powers and the number of verified output powers. When the target ratio is greater than or equal to the preset ratio, it is determined that the automatic calibration of the device to be calibrated is qualified. When the target ratio is less than the preset ratio, a warning message is output, which helps to ensure the accurate output of the device to be calibrated.
