Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of filters, in particular to an L-band 10-watt high-power frequency hopping filter. BACKGROUND

[0002] In an L-band high-power frequency hopping radio station, a harmonic filter is a key device to ensure the purity of the transmitted signal and prevent adjacent station interference. Due to the wide application of L-band frequency range, the transmitted signal often contains a large number of harmonic components, which can interfere with the communication equipment in the adjacent frequency band, and even affect the stability of the entire communication system. Therefore, the main function of the harmonic filter is to suppress the harmonic components in the transmitted signal through selective filtering, while ensuring the pure transmission of the main frequency signal.

[0003] As shown in Figure 1 The existing L-band harmonic filter usually adopts a combination of two low-pass filters and a 1 / 2 radio frequency switch. Specifically, this filter attenuates high-frequency harmonics through a low-pass filter, and then distributes the signal to different filtering paths through a radio frequency switch to achieve selective filtering of specific frequencies. However, this design has the following problems: first, the combination of two low-pass filters and a radio frequency switch results in a complex filter structure, increasing the difficulty of design and debugging; second, the introduction of a radio frequency switch not only increases the power consumption of the system, but also reduces the reliability of the filter, especially under high-power conditions, the radio frequency switch is prone to failure due to overheating or breakdown; in addition, the production cycle of this filter is longer, making it difficult to meet the needs of mass production, and its selectivity and harmonic suppression effect are limited, making it difficult to meet the requirements of modern communication systems for high-performance filters.

[0028] Referring to the drawings Figure 2 The filter of the present embodiment is composed of a first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1, a second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2, a first single-tuned inductor Lr1, a second single-tuned inductor Lr2, a third single-tuned inductor Lr3, a fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4, a first single-tuned capacitor Cr1, a second single-tuned capacitor Cr2, and a coupling inductor Lm1. These components are connected in a specific manner to form a 2nd-order bandpass filter structure, which is used to realize the harmonic filtering function of the L-band high-power frequency hopping radio. The first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1 and the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2 are respectively located at the input and output ends of the filter, and their main function is to realize impedance matching, ensuring efficient transmission of radio frequency signals at the input and output ends, and reducing signal reflection and loss. One end of the first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1 is connected to an external 50-ohm transmission line or a 50-ohm port of a radio frequency device, and the other end is connected to the connection end of the first single-tuned inductor Lr1 and the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1. One end of the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2 is connected to an external 50-ohm transmission line or a 50-ohm port of a radio frequency device, and the other end is connected to the connection end of the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2. Through this design, the first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1 and the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2 can effectively match the input and output impedances, ensuring the transmission efficiency of the signals in the filter.

[0029] In the embodiment, the first single-tuned inductor Lr1, the second single-tuned inductor Lr2, the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 are core resonant elements of the filter, used to form resonant circuits in cooperation with the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2, to realize selective filtering of specific frequencies. The first single-tuned inductor Lr1 and the second single-tuned inductor Lr2 are located in the front half of the filter, and the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 are located in the rear half of the filter. One end of the first single-tuned inductor Lr1 is connected to the non-external end of the first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1 and the non-ground end of the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1, and the other end is connected to the non-ground end of the second single-tuned inductor Lr2; the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 is connected to the non-ground end of the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 and one end of the coupling inductor Lm1, and the other end is connected to the non-ground end of the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2 and the non-external end of the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2. These inductors form resonant points in cooperation with the capacitors through their own inductive properties, to realize selective passing of the center frequency of the L band while suppressing other frequency components.

[0030] In the embodiment, the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2 cooperate with the first single-tuned inductor Lr1, the second single-tuned inductor Lr2, the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 to form resonant circuits, to realize frequency tuning functions.

[0031] The first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 cooperates with the first single-tuned inductor Lr1 and the second single-tuned inductor Lr2 to form a resonant circuit in the front half; and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2 cooperates with the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 to form a resonant circuit in the rear half. By adjusting the capacitance values of the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2, the center frequency of the filter can be adjusted to adapt to different working frequency bands.

[0032] The first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2 are multilayer ceramic capacitors with high Q value, COG material, 1111 package and 500V voltage resistance, having the characteristics of low loss and high stability, and being able to maintain stable performance under high frequency and high power conditions.

[0033] In this embodiment, the coupling inductor Lm1 is the key coupling element of the filter, used to realize the energy coupling between the second single-tuned inductor Lr2 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4, enhancing the selectivity and bandwidth of the filter. One end of the coupling inductor Lm1 is connected to the non-ground end of the second single-tuned inductor Lr2 and one end of the first single-tuned inductor Lr1, and the other end is connected to the non-ground end of the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4 and one end of the third single-tuned inductor Lr3. Through the coupling effect of the coupling inductor Lm1, the front half and the back half of the filter can work together, further improving the performance of the filter. The coupling inductor Lm1 uses a 0.5mm enameled wire single-wire non-winding inductor, which has the characteristics of low loss and high coupling efficiency, and can effectively improve the harmonic suppression effect of the filter.

[0034] In practical applications, the L-band 10-watt high-power frequency hopping filter of this embodiment can achieve higher resonance frequency, smaller size and higher radio frequency power capacity through the above structural design and material selection. For example, in an L-band high-power frequency hopping radio, this filter can effectively suppress harmonic interference and improve signal purity. At the same time, through the tunable function of the center frequency, it prevents adjacent channel interference and enhances communication security. Compared with the traditional 2-section low-pass filter and 1 / 2 radio frequency switch filter, the filter structure of this embodiment is simpler, easier to debug, and the production difficulty is significantly reduced, while having higher selectivity and harmonic suppression effect.

[0035] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when the radio frequency signal is input through the first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1, the signal first passes through the resonance circuit of the first single-tuned inductor Lr1 and the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1, realizing preliminary frequency selection and harmonic suppression. Subsequently, the signal passes through the coupling effect of the coupling inductor Lm1 with the second single-tuned inductor Lr2 and the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4, further filtering out unwanted frequency components. Finally, the signal passes through the resonance circuit of the third single-tuned inductor Lr3 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2, and is output to the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2, completing the entire filtering process. The design of the coupling inductor Lm1 enables the filter to maintain high selectivity while achieving wider bandwidth and higher harmonic suppression effect.

[0036] In terms of design principles, this embodiment optimizes the layout and connection method of inductors and capacitors, reducing the complex low-pass filter and radio frequency switch design in traditional filters, reducing structural complexity and debugging difficulty. At the same time, high-Q inductors and capacitor materials are used to ensure the stability and reliability of the filter under high power conditions. In addition, the compact structural design makes the filter smaller in size, suitable for space-limited application scenarios.

[0037] It should be noted that the parts not disclosed in detail in the present embodiment, such as the specific winding process of the first 50-ohm interface inductor Lio1 and the second 50-ohm interface inductor Lio2, the copper column processing method of the first single-tuned inductor Lr1 to the fourth single-tuned inductor Lr4, and the packaging process of the first single-tuned capacitor Cr1 and the second single-tuned capacitor Cr2, etc., all belong to the known technology or prior art of those skilled in the art, and do not need to be described in detail in the present embodiment. The specific implementation of these technologies can be adjusted and optimized according to the actual application requirements, but will not affect the core technical scheme and implementation effect of the present embodiment.
