There are many ways to generate wideband linear frequency modulation signals, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The most suitable generation method needs to be selected according to different use scenarios and project backgrounds.

[0003] In order to generate a signal with a large time-bandwidth product, a DDS or an AWG is often used to generate a relatively low-frequency and relatively narrow-band baseband linear frequency modulation signal, and a frequency multiplier is used to generate a larger-bandwidth LFM signal. At this time, if the relative bandwidth of the baseband signal is relatively large, there are many spurs in the frequency multiplication product, and each harmonic seriously affects the quality of subsequent processing. These existing in the signal band may not be able to be filtered out by a filter! The fourth harmonic may be relatively large, therefore, a frequency multiplication scheme is needed to suppress the fourth harmonic. SUMMARY

[0008] a power combiner-180°, the input end of the power combiner-180° being connected to the output ends of the two frequency doublers.

[0009] Preferably, the model of the power divider-90° is ZFSCJ-2-4.

[0010] Preferably, the model of the two frequency doublers is HE011.

[0011] Preferably, the model of the power combiner-180° is ZFSC-2-2.

[0012] Advantages:
