TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of information detection, and in particular to a portable signal detection device based on FPGA. BACKGROUND
[0002] Signal detection devices play an important role in modern communication and broadcasting fields. With the rapid development of wireless communication technology, various types of signals such as FM / AM broadcast signals, DTMB terrestrial digital television signals, and CMMB mobile multimedia broadcast signals are widely used. The diversity and complexity of these signals require detection devices to have efficient and accurate signal receiving and processing capabilities. Traditional signal detection devices are usually single-function, which cannot meet the simultaneous detection needs of multiple signal types, limiting their application range and flexibility. Currently, in order to meet the detection needs of multiple types of signals, the industry has adopted various technologies and means. Common methods include using independent receiving antennas to receive different types of signals, and then using dedicated demodulators and processors for signal processing. Another common way is to use high-integration multi-function chips to realize the reception and processing of multiple types of signals. In addition, some high-end devices are also equipped with large-capacity storage units and stable power systems to ensure long-term stable operation. However, these methods generally have problems such as large size, inconvenient operation, etc., which are difficult to meet the needs of portable application scenarios. The existing multi-type signal detection devices can solve the problem of signal receiving and processing to some extent, but there are still obvious shortcomings in actual application. For example, the overall structure of the device is relatively bulky, which is not convenient for carrying and on-site rapid deployment. At the same time, the connection and cooperative work between modules are not flexible enough, resulting in high operation complexity of the device. Therefore, a more compact, portable and efficient signal detection device is needed, which can realize the reception, demodulation, analysis and transmission of multiple types of signals in a small-sized device, thereby improving the practicality and convenience of the device.
