DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The utility model is described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Referring to Figures 1 to 8 The utility model provides a kind of handicapped person guiding device based on microwave radar, and in an embodiment, including blind guiding stick 1, installation shell body installed on blind guiding stick 1 and microwave radar installed in installation shell body;The microwave radar includes MCU module, radio frequency module, signal processing module, power supply module 2 and antenna modulation module;The signal processing module and power supply module 2 are connected with MCU module;The antenna modulation module is connected with radio frequency module;The radio frequency module includes radio frequency processing unit, and transmitting antenna and receiving antenna connected with radio frequency processing unit;The radio frequency processing unit is connected with signal processing module;Vibration module connected with MCU module is also installed in the installation shell body.

[0029] In the embodiment, microwave radar works in ISM wave band (24.0~24.25GHz), simultaneously, the signal processing module includes two signal filter amplification units, one of the signal filter amplification units is used to process IFI signal, and another signal filter amplification unit is used to process IFQ signal;Each signal filter amplification unit includes signal filter unit and signal amplification unit connected with signal filter unit;The signal filter unit is connected with radio frequency processing unit, and signal amplification unit is connected with MCU module.In addition, as shown in Figure 8As shown, the radio frequency processing unit includes a voltage-controlled oscillator, a first power divider, a second power divider, a 90° phase shifter, a first mixer, a second mixer, a power amplifier, and a low-noise amplifier; an input end of the first power divider is connected with the voltage-controlled oscillator, a first output end of the first power divider is connected with a transmitting antenna, and a second output end of the first power divider is connected with an input end of the second power divider; a first output end of the second power divider is connected with a first input end of the first mixer, and a second output end of the second power divider is connected with an input end of the 90° phase shifter; a second input end of the first mixer is connected with a first output end of the power amplifier; a first input end of the second mixer is connected with an output end of the 90° phase shifter, and a second input end of the second mixer is connected with a second output end of the power amplifier; an input end of the power amplifier is connected with an output end of the low-noise amplifier, and an input end of the low-noise amplifier is connected with a receiving antenna.

[0030] The output end of the first mixer is used for outputting an IFI signal, and the output end of the second mixer is used for outputting an IFQ signal. When the device is used by the disabled, especially the blind, the voltage-controlled oscillator generates a detection signal with a certain bandwidth according to a modulation signal (the antenna modulation module controls the transmitting frequency of the radar at certain time intervals), which is transmitted to the transmitting antenna through the first power divider, and then is radiated to the area to be detected. If there is an obstacle in the area to be detected, the signal reflected by the obstacle is converted into a high-frequency electric signal by the receiving antenna, is amplified by the low-noise amplifier, is transmitted to the second power divider, is distributed to the first mixer and the second mixer by the second power divider, and is mixed with the detection signal before being transmitted by the transmitting antenna by the first mixer and the second mixer to obtain intermediate frequency signals (IFI signal and IFQ signal). Then, a part of the low-frequency part in the intermediate frequency signal is filtered out (the intermediate frequency signal contains low-frequency noise signals and low-frequency signals not reflected by the target, so as to reduce the modulation leakage problem caused by mixing), and then the filtered signal is amplified by the signal amplification unit and is transmitted to the MCU module.
