[0028] Example 1
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the broadband combiner common tap structure proposed in this utility model includes a base 3, a cover plate 1, a connector 4, and a screw 2 for fixing.
[0030] like Figure 2As shown, the base 3 is used to provide a support structure for the entire common tap structure for installation; the cover plate 1 is assembled with the base 3 and locked using a plurality of screws 2, which closes the internal common tap structure to form a relatively sealed structure; the side of the base 3 is reserved for mounting the connector 4; the connector 4 is connected with an external device for outputting the combined signal;
[0031] Two common cavities are provided in the base 3, and the combination of the two common cavities realizes the combining function; one end of the connector 4 is inserted into the base 3, and a probe 5 is provided at the end inserted into the base 3, and the two common cavities are connected through the probe 5; an insulator 6 is provided along the outside of the probe 5, which is used to isolate other elements in the base 3 to avoid interference.
[0032] A first filter 7 is provided in the first common cavity; a second filter 8 is provided in the second common cavity.
[0033] In this embodiment, the combiner tap can cover 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G frequency bands. Among them, two-way combiner: filter 1: 617-960MHz, filter 2: 1700-4200MHz;
[0034] Three-way combiner: filter 1: 617-960MHz, filter 2: 1700-2700MHz, filter 3: 3300-4200MHz;
[0035] Four-way combiner: filter 1: 617-960MHz, filter 2: 1710-2200MHz, filter 3: 2300-2700MHz, filter 4: 3300-4200MHz;
[0036] Five-way combiner: filter 1: 617-960MHz, filter 2: 1710-1880MHz, filter 3: 1920-2200MHz, filter 4: 2300-2700MHz, filter 5: 3300-4200MHz.
[0037] The combiner tap is a high-low pass combining implementation principle, two-way combiner, first filter: 617-960MHz, which belongs to a coaxial cavity bandpass filter, and the tap is realized by a copper sheet with a thickness of 1mm and a width of 6mm, and two stages from the tap to the common port are realized by a low pass, and the first stage of the low pass is realized by a high-impedance equivalent inductance. Because the first filter covers a frequency of 617-960MHz, this common cavity can couple out a plurality of bandpass filters of 617-960MHz, and the number of combined frequency bands can be flexibly increased;
[0038] Second filter: 1700-4200MHz, realized by band-pass filter, commonly coaxial structure cavity band-pass filter, the tap of common cavity is realized by capacitive structure coupled by probe, this common cavity can couple out 1700-4200MHz multiple band-pass filter, flexible increase the number of combined frequency band. Because the frequency band of passband 2 reaches 1700-4200MHz, the filter bandwidth is 2500MHz, the relative bandwidth reaches 84.7%, the theoretical tap delay of the filter is about 0.22ns, this delay is too small, it is difficult to distinguish in simulation software, the delay is less than low noise, only the reflection delay of simulation tap cannot judge whether the tap strength meets the requirement. The new method is to establish a tap model in three-dimensional electromagnetic field simulation software, then export the snp file, import it in road simulation software and then optimize, take S parameter as the standard, judge the tap strength according to standing wave.
[0039] Two-way combiner, high-low pass combiner implementation principle, the first section of low-pass filter is inductor, and the first section of high-pass filter is capacitor. The frequency band of first filter 7 low-pass is 617-960MHz, and the first stage of low-pass is high impedance line equivalent to realize inductor. The frequency band of second filter 8 band-pass is 1700-4200MHz, and the tap is capacitive coupling structure in the form of coupling disc or probe, as shown in the model. Figure 3
[0040] Three-way combiner, based on two-way combiner, first filter 7 low-pass does not change, the tap coverage range of second filter 8 is 1700-4200MHz, taking the first resonant cavity of second filter 8 as common cavity, two ways are divided, one of which is 1700-2700MHz as second filter 8, and the other is 3300-4200MHz as third filter 9, as shown in the model. Figure 4
[0041] Four-way combiner, based on three-way combiner, first filter 7 low-pass does not change, taking the first cavity of filter with frequency of 1700-2700MHz as common cavity, two ways are divided, one of which is 1700-2200MHz as second filter 8, and the other is 2300-2700MHz as third filter 9, and the other is 3300-4200MHz as fourth filter 10, as shown in the model. Figure 5
[0042] The five-way combiner is based on the three-way combiner, the first filter 7 low pass is not changed, the first cavity of the filter with the frequency of 1700-2700MHz is the common cavity, three paths are divided, one of which is 1710-1880MHz as the second filter 8, one is 1920-2200MHz as the third filter 9, one is 2300-2700MHz as the fourth filter 10, and the other is 3300-4200MHz as the fifth filter 11, and the model is as shown in Figure 6
[0043] Compared with the prior art: the existing product 617-960MHz is a full-band pass, which is realized by a low pass, but there are many demands in the market that 617-960MHz is often divided into 617-862MHz and 880-960MHz two band pass filters, or 617-798MHz and 824-960MHz two band pass filters, and there is an isolation requirement, so two band pass filters must be used. If a full-band low pass filter is used and then two band pass filters are connected in series, the size will be greatly increased, and the structure is also complex. In the embodiment, a 2-order low pass is used instead; the size is small, only a space of a tap piece, and no additional cavity size is occupied. In addition, the existing combiner has 700MHz, 800MHz, 1800MHz, 2100MHz, 2700MHz, 3800MHz combiners, and the 3800MHz combiner is not so wide because the frequency band is only 3400-3800MHz, and in the embodiment, the port is coupled out through the thickened connector inner conductor, and the frequency band can be 3300-4200MHz, which is coupled out through the common cavity. Compared with the prior art, the low pass is reduced to 2-order, and the size is reduced.
