Description

The test macro of wireless USB modem airborne performance and method of testing
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Wireless USB Modem airborne performance testing apparatus and method, relate in particular to USB Modem aerial (Over The Air, OTA) test of performance in the field of wireless communication.
Background technology
Along with the development of the second generation (2G) and the third generation (3G) wireless communication system, the ability of wireless data service high-speed transfer improves constantly.Wireless USB Modem is one of wireless communication terminal product, use the USB line to link on notebook computer or the desktop computer, carry out high speed data transfer by cordless communication network, as global system for mobile communications (Global Systemfor Mobile communications, abbreviate GSM as) under GPRS (General Packet Radio Service, abbreviate GPRS as), enhancing GPRS (Enhanced GPRS under the GSM, abbreviate EGPRS as), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) under the 3G communication system (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, abbreviating WCDMA as) high speed downlink packet introduced of network inserts (High Speed DownlinkPacket Access, abbreviate HSDPA as) technology, make the user not have optical fiber, coaxial cable, the Internet network also can freely be browsed in the place of telephone wire or remote area, the high-speed downloads data, carry out operations such as voice call.Wherein, the HSDPA technology, theoretical maximum downstream speed is 14.4M/s.Like this, by the interfaces for external devices such as notebook PC of standard, Wireless USB Modem can provide data service, speech business and short message service for the user; By install software at random is installed on notebook, the user can finish network installation and the surfing on the net of Modem; By being installed in the user interface of PC side application software, the user can call, and the transmitting-receiving note, Modem is set and obtains the state information of wireless connections.Fig. 1 is the application schematic block diagram of whole system.
As mobile communication needs antenna, during Wireless USB Modem work, also must and receive the space electromagnetic wave by day alignment space radiation electromagnetic wave, send received signal, thus swap data and information.But because the custom of the environment that Wireless USB Modem uses, user's use etc. are different, the performance requirement of antenna also can have different places with antenna for mobile phone with method of testing.
For mobile phone, how to test and assess the problem of mobile phone antenna performance, the people was just arranged in research, as European scientific and technological cooperation research center (EuropeanCooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical research abbreviates COST as) [1] as far back as 1998.In the past few years, through mobile phone production firm, darkroom manufacturer, the research of university research center and standardization body and summary, aerial (the Over-The-Air that the Cellular Telecommunicationand Internet Association of international organization (CTIA) proposes, abbreviate OTA as) method of testing and standard [2], it mainly is the influence of the concatenation ability of checking wireless device and network and terminal user to radiation and receptivity, carry out the test of radiant power and receiving sensitivity two aspects, be total radiant power (TRP) and total omnidirectional sensitivity (TIS), test is divided at free space (Free-space) and has under the headform (SAM HeadPhantom) to be carried out.Wherein, the implication of TRP be the space all receive the summation of terminal radiant power, surface integral just, and test can not be got infinite point in practice, to carry out the test point sampling to test sphere satisfying under certain measuring accuracy and test speed require.CTIA OTA standard code, the angle intervals of TRP spatial sampling point are taken as 15 degree.Similarly, standard code, the angle intervals of TIS spatial sampling point is taken as 30 degree, because each spatial sampling point testing time of TIS is longer than the TRP spatial point testing time.At present, microwave dark room and two kinds of structures of testboard existence of being used for the OTA test: (1) big circule method and (2) awl cutting method [2].Their essence is the same, and when difference was exactly scanning angle, big circule method was that to measure antenna motionless, and object under test is the sampled point on scan position angle φ and the angle of site θ successively, and Fig. 2 is the structural representation of big circule method; The awl cutting method is object under test along azimuth φ scanning, measures antenna along angle of site θ sampling, as shown in Figure 3, wherein, will hang down the reflection supporting construction as θ shaft mechanical scanning support or a plurality of test antennas are installed, and single probe test macro and many probe systems are arranged.Many probe systems are that the sampling interval that a plurality of measurement antennas are fixed when designing the darkroom in advance evenly is fixed on the θ tangent plane, advantage is that test speed can be accelerated greatly, and shortcoming is that the difficulty of calibration increases, test interval can not arbitrarily be changed with software.Well-known in the world cell phone manufacturer and operator have all stipulated TRP and TIS requirement that mobile phone need reach according to the method for CTIA OTA standard code; Darkroom production firm is also according to this standard, release the OTA test macro, build hardware facilities such as darkroom framework and turret plant, making software control hardware system carries out three-dimensional sampled point test, and calculate TRP, TIS, carry out three-dimensional figure and show, as darkroom producers such as ETS Lindgren, Satimo, Howland.
For Wireless USB Modem antenna, owing to also do not have unified OTA test specification and standard in the communications industry, and the USB Modem that does not have self-contained battery must link to be put into together on the notebook computer and tests in the darkroom, therefore, the test meeting of the darkroom framework of the test of USB Modem airborne performance, test and method of testing and mobile phone airborne performance is variant.Simultaneously, when the user uses USB Modem, be to connect with USB to be put on desk or the workbench, rather than hand or dial and answer, do not need to test the situation under the SAMHead Phantom near the number of people.Therefore, in Wireless USB Modem, the problem that needs to solve is that the OTA that utilizes existing mobile phone airborne performance test macro and condition to carry out under the free space (Free-space) tests, and scientifically assesses the antenna performance of product.
