[0030] The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments:
[0031] Embodiment 1
[0032] The present utility model provides a radio frequency source module based on multi-channel filtering. The radio frequency source module is used to provide radio frequency source signals of different frequencies. In order to cover the entire frequency band, in the present utility model, the radio frequency source module adopts a frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and a frequency division filtering and amplification module. The frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and the frequency division filtering and amplification module are connected through a radio frequency input switch and a radio frequency output switch, and it is possible to select to provide radio frequency signals to the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and the frequency division filtering and amplification module, so that the radio frequency signals are output after frequency multiplication amplification and filtering in the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module or the frequency division filtering and amplification module.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the radio frequency source module includes a phase-locked loop module, a frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module, and a frequency division filtering and amplification module. The output end of the phase-locked loop module is connected with a radio frequency input switch, and the other end of the radio frequency input switch is connected to the input ends of the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and the frequency division filtering and amplification module. The output ends of the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and the frequency division filtering and amplification module are connected with a radio frequency output switch; the phase-locked loop module is used to provide a 4-8 GHz radio frequency signal, and by controlling the radio frequency input switch, it is possible to select to input radio frequency signals to the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module or the frequency division filtering and amplification module; the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module and the frequency division filtering and amplification module are used to perform frequency multiplication amplification and filtering on radio frequency signals in a specific frequency band. Through the frequency multiplication filtering and amplification module, a 8-13.5 GHz radio frequency signal can be output, and through the frequency division filtering and amplification module, a 10 MHz-8 GHz radio frequency signal can be output. Then, by controlling the radio frequency output switch, it is possible to select to output a 8-13.5 GHz radio frequency signal or a 10 MHz-8 GHz radio frequency signal.
[0034] Specifically, as Figure 2As shown, the frequency doubling filter amplification module includes a frequency doubling channel, and a frequency doubling channel consists of a frequency doubler and a first switched filter bank connected in sequence. The frequency doubler is connected to the RF input switch, and the output end of the first switched filter bank is connected to the RF output switch, so that an RF signal of 8 - 13.5 GHz can be output through the frequency doubling filter amplification module. The frequency division filter amplification module includes a first filter channel, a second filter channel, a third filter channel, and a fourth filter channel. The first filter channel, the second filter channel, the third filter channel, and the fourth filter channel are divided according to frequency, so that the RF signals output through the first filter channel, the second filter channel, the third filter channel, and the fourth filter channel respectively can generate RF signals in different frequency bands. Specifically, the RF signal output through the first filter channel is an RF signal of 4 - 8 GHz, the RF signal output through the second filter channel is an RF signal of 2 - 4 GHz, the RF signal output through the third filter channel is an RF signal of 0.125 - 2 GHz, and the RF signal output through the fourth filter channel is an RF signal of 10 MHz - 125 MHz.
[0035] And, in order to output RF signals within the corresponding frequency bands through the above-mentioned frequency doubling filter amplification module and frequency division filter amplification module respectively, as Figure 2 shown, the RF output switch includes a first RF output switch and a second RF output switch. One end of the first RF output switch is connected to the output ends of the four filter channels, and the other end of the first RF output switch is connected to the second RF output switch. Then, by controlling the first RF output switch, an RF signal of a specific frequency band can be selected to be output to the second RF output switch. The output end of the first switched filter bank is connected to the second RF output switch. Then, by controlling the second RF output switch, an RF signal of a specific frequency band can be selected to be output.
[0036] Based on the above RF source module, the present utility model mainly sets filters separately for each frequency band in the frequency doubling filter amplification module or the frequency division filter amplification module for filtering. In order to make the RF signal finally output by the frequency doubling filter amplification module or the frequency division filter amplification module purer. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the frequency doubling filter amplification module includes a frequency doubler and a first switched filter bank connected in sequence. The frequency doubler is connected to the RF input switch, and the output end of the first switched filter bank is connected to the RF output switch, so that an RF signal of 8 - 13.5 GHz can be output through the frequency doubling filter amplification module.
[0037] And, the frequency division filter amplification module forms multiple different filter channels according to different frequency band divisions. Then, separate filters are set in each filter channel, so that each frequency band can be filtered accordingly according to the frequency band, making the RF signal selected and output by the frequency division filter amplification module purer.
[0038] According to the 4 - 8 GHz radio frequency signal provided by the phase - locked loop module and the frequency bands corresponding to the radio frequency signals output by the first filtering channel, the second filtering channel, the third filtering channel, and the fourth filtering channel, the frequency dividers and filters in the first filtering channel, the second filtering channel, the third filtering channel, and the fourth filtering channel can be set separately. Then, the first filtering channel, the second filtering channel, the third filtering channel, and the fourth filtering channel include different frequency dividers and filters, as follows:
[0039] The first filtering channel includes a second switched filter bank;
[0040] The second filtering channel includes a first frequency divider and a third switched filter bank connected in sequence;
[0041] The third filtering channel includes a second frequency divider and a fourth switched filter bank connected in sequence;
[0042] The fourth filtering channel includes a third frequency divider, a DDS, and a filter connected in sequence.
[0043] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the division ratios of the first frequency divider, the second frequency divider, and the third frequency divider increase in sequence. The division ratio of the first frequency divider is 2, that is, the first frequency divider is a 2 - frequency divider; and the division ratio of the second frequency divider can be 4, 8, 16, 32, that is, the second frequency divider is a 4 - frequency divider / 8 - frequency divider / 16 - frequency divider / 32 - frequency divider; the division ratio of the third frequency divider can also be 4, 8, 16, 32, that is, the third frequency divider is a 4 - frequency divider / 8 - frequency divider / 16 - frequency divider / 32 - frequency divider. Then, the first filtering channel, the second filtering channel, the third filtering channel, and the fourth filtering channel are divided into different frequency bands, and radio frequency signals within different frequency bands are generated through frequency multiplication, amplification, and filtering;
[0044] For the first filtering channel, the second filtering channel, the third filtering channel, and the fourth filtering channel with different frequency dividers, the filters are set separately. Specifically, as Figure 3As shown, in the first filtering channel, the second switched filter bank consists of a group of single-pole double-throw switches and four low-pass filters. Two low-pass filters form a group of filters, and both ends of a group of filters are connected to the single-pole double-throw switches; in the second filtering channel, the third switched filter bank consists of a group of single-pole double-throw switches and two low-pass filters, and both ends of the two low-pass filters are connected to the single-pole double-throw switches; in the third filtering channel, the fourth switched filter bank is divided into 6-way filtering, and different-way filtering can be selected through switch switching for filtering, and each way is separately provided with a corresponding filter; in the fourth filtering channel, since the fourth filtering channel is the low-frequency part and a 10 MHz - 125 MHz radio frequency signal is generated by DDS, two successively connected low-pass filters are provided in the fourth filtering channel, and an attenuator is provided between the two successively connected low-pass filters.
[0045] Based on the above filtering channels with different frequency bands, corresponding filters are separately provided in the frequency doubling filtering and amplifying module and the first, second, third, and fourth filtering channels according to the frequency bands, making the finally output signal purer.
[0046] Moreover, two-stage amplifiers are further provided between the first radio frequency output switch and the second radio frequency output switch, and the amplifiers are used to adjust the amplitude of the radio frequency signal and then output a radio frequency signal of a specific frequency band.
[0047] It can be understood that the above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments adopted to illustrate the principle of the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements are also regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
