Of course, the frequency band can also be adjusted according to usage requirements.
[0093] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 8To facilitate understanding of how the input protection module 3 performs limiting protection and filtering on the input RF signal transmitted from the input terminal, the following description is provided. Specifically, the input protection module 3 includes: a first attenuator, a first amplifier circuit, a second attenuator, a limiting circuit, a third attenuator, an RF switching circuit, a filtering circuit, and a second amplifier circuit. The first attenuator is electrically connected to the RF input terminal 11 of the mainboard 1 and is configured to perform π-type attenuation on the input RF signal transmitted from the RF input terminal 11 of the mainboard 1, thereby allowing the first attenuator to reduce the input standing wave ratio of the input RF signal.

One end of the limiting circuit is electrically connected to the other end of the second attenuator. The limiting circuit is used to filter and limit the signal amplitude of the input RF signal processed by the second attenuator to prevent the excessive power of the input RF signal from damaging subsequent devices. One end of the third attenuator can be electrically connected to the limiting circuit via a DC blocking capacitor. The third attenuator is used to filter and limit the signal amplitude of the input RF signal processed by the limiting circuit to prevent damage to subsequent devices due to excessive input power of the input RF signal processed by the limiting circuit. One end of the RF switching circuit is electrically connected to the other end of the third attenuator via a DC blocking capacitor. The RF switching circuit is electrically connected to the main control module 7. The RF switching circuit is used to perform RF switching on the input RF signal processed by the limiting circuit according to the control signal of the main control module 7. One end of the filter circuit can be electrically connected to the RF switching circuit via a DC blocking capacitor. The filter circuit is used to remove harmonics and noise outside the bandwidth of the input RF signal processed by the RF switching circuit. One end of the second amplifier circuit is connected to the other end of the filter circuit through a DC blocking capacitor, and the other end of the second amplifier circuit can be electrically connected to the pre-stage power amplifier module 2 through a DC blocking capacitor. The second amplifier circuit is used to perform a second signal amplification process on the input RF signal processed by the filter circuit, and to isolate the DC signal of the input RF signal processed by the second amplifier circuit through a DC blocking capacitor, and then output the input RF signal. Here, in order to ensure the power supply stability of the signal amplification in the input protection module 3, a first voltage stabilizing circuit is also provided, one end of the first voltage stabilizing circuit is electrically connected to the power supply module, and the other end of the first voltage stabilizing circuit is electrically connected to the first amplifier circuit and the second amplifier circuit respectively. Wherein, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first voltage-stabilizing circuit further includes: multiple filter capacitors and a voltage-stabilizing diode, so that the supply voltage from the power supply module passes through the multiple filter capacitors before entering the voltage-stabilizing diode. The DC voltage output by the voltage-stabilizing diode then passes through the multiple filter capacitors and, via the inductor, supplies power to the first and second amplifier circuits. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the amplitude limiting circuit can select an appropriate limiter based on actual power usage.
[0094] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 14To facilitate understanding of how the pre-amplifier module 2 performs temperature-compensated attenuation and bandwidth-balanced gain on the first RF signal processed by the input protection module 3, and then outputs a second RF signal, the following description is provided. Specifically, the pre-amplifier module 2 includes a temperature-compensated circuit, a third amplifying circuit, an equalizing circuit, a fourth amplifying circuit, a fifth amplifying circuit, and a negative voltage control circuit. The temperature-compensated circuit is electrically connected to the input protection module 3 and is used to perform temperature compensation on the first RF signal obtained by processing the input RF signal transmitted from the input end by the input protection module 3, thereby meeting the temperature compensation requirements of the multi-stage power amplification of the first RF signal. The third amplifying circuit is connected to the temperature-compensated circuit via a DC-blocking capacitor and divides the first RF signal into equal parts, removing the DC signal and re-synthesizing it. The equalizing circuit is electrically connected to the third amplifying circuit and is used to perform gain adjustment on the first RF signal processed by the third amplifying circuit at different frequencies within the bandwidth. The fourth amplifying circuit is electrically connected to the equalizing circuit and is used to amplify the first RF signal after gain adjustment by the equalizing circuit. The fifth amplifier circuit is electrically connected to the fourth amplifier circuit. The fifth amplifier circuit is used, on the one hand, to amplify the first RF signal processed by the fourth amplifier circuit, and on the other hand, to improve the isolation between the amplifier circuits at each stage, while also improving the anti-total reflection capability of the pre-stage power amplifier module 2. Because power amplifier tubes are provided between the third, fourth, and fifth amplifier circuits in the pre-stage power amplifier module 2, especially when GaN power amplifier tubes are used, the power amplifier tubes have strict requirements on the power-on sequence of gate voltage and drain voltage. Therefore, a negative voltage control circuit is also required. The negative voltage control circuit is electrically connected to the main control module 7. The negative voltage control circuit is electrically connected to the third, fourth, and fifth amplifier circuits, respectively. The negative voltage control circuit is used to stabilize the power supply to the third, fourth, and fifth amplifier circuits according to a set power supply sequence based on the control signal of the main control module 7. That is, after the first RF signal processed by the front-stage power amplifier module 2 is subjected to temperature compensation, shunt power amplifier isolation synthesis, equalization gain, and amplification isolation in sequence, the second input RF signal is output to the final-stage power amplifier module 4 to ensure that the second output signal entering the final-stage power amplifier module 4 is stable.
[0095] Reference Figure 10In this embodiment, the stability of the first radio frequency signal entering the fourth amplifier circuit is ensured. The third amplifier circuit includes: two power amplifier tubes, a first bridge and a second bridge. The first bridge is connected to the temperature compensation circuit through a DC blocking capacitor, and is used to divide the first radio frequency signal processed by the temperature compensation circuit into two equal parts. The input ends of the two power amplifier tubes are respectively electrically connected to the first bridge, so that the two power amplifier tubes can respectively amplify the first radio frequency signal divided into two parts. The second bridge is electrically connected to the other ends of the two power amplifier tubes through two DC blocking capacitors. The second bridge is used to synthesize the two first radio frequency signals that have been amplified by the two power amplifier tubes, so as to realize signal integration and filtering of the DC signal of the first radio frequency signal after its processing. This can then ensure the stability of the subsequent signal power amplification.
[0096] Reference Figure 12 Specifically, the fifth amplifier circuit includes a circulator, a ceramic load, and a power amplifier tube. The circulator has three pins, one of which is electrically connected to the fourth amplifier circuit via a DC blocking capacitor. The power amplifier tube is electrically connected to the second pin of the circulator. The ceramic load is electrically connected to the third pin of the circulator. By adding the circulator and its load to the fifth amplifier circuit, the isolation between the various amplifier circuits can be improved, while also enhancing the anti-total reflection capability of the pre-stage power amplifier module 2.
