Description

Background technology
Along with development of Communication Technique, the zero intermediate frequency reciver structure has replaced traditional superheterodyne receiver structure, become the structure of the main flow of present GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication, global system for mobile communications) terminal radio frequency receiver.The zero intermediate frequency reciver structure only needs the one-level mixing, and (the GSM baseband signal is 0Hz~100KHz) just directly high-frequency received signal to be converted to baseband signal.And noise factor (NF, Noise Figure) is an important indicator of weighing the radio-frequency transmitter performance, so need the noise factor of measurement zero intermediate frequency reciver to judge the performance of zero intermediate frequency reciver.
The method of measuring noise factor in the prior art mainly contains following two kinds:
1) adopt the gain method to measure noise factor, specific as follows: as at first to add input signal, use frequency spectrograph to measure the gain G of DUT (Device Under Test, measured device); Close input signal then, use frequency spectrograph to measure the output noise power N of DUT oAccording to NF=N o(dBm)-G (dB)-10log 10B-10log 10(kT 0) calculate the noise factor of DUT, wherein, k represents Boltzmann constant, B represents GSM equivalent bandwidth (being generally 200KHz), T 0The expression virtual temperature (is got T usually 0=290K).
2) adopt the Y factor method to measure noise factor, specific as follows: it is 0V (the noise head is operated in cold temperature) that noise head voltage is set, and uses the noise figure meter device to measure the output noise power N of DUT O1It is high voltage (the noise head is operated in hot temperature) that the noise head is set, and uses the noise figure meter device to measure the output noise power N of DUT O2According to Y=N O2/ N O1, calculate the Y factor value, look into ENR (Excess Noise Radio, the excess noise ratio) value that noise head parameter obtains measuring bandwidth, according to NF=ENR (dB)-10log 10(Y-1) calculate the noise factor of DUT.
In realizing process of the present invention, the inventor finds:
1) because GSM zero intermediate frequency reciver output signal frequency scope is near DC~100KHz (direct current), when adopting the noise factor of gain method measure GSM zero intermediate frequency reciver, the DC component of zero intermediate frequency reciver direct current biasing and frequency spectrograph self can be measured to produce and disturb baseband signal, the gain of the DUT that measures and output noise power error are very big, and the noise factor precision that obtains is very low; And, the gain method generally is applicable to measures noise factor higher system (NF〉10dB), and the noise factor of GSM zero intermediate frequency reciver is generally about 6dB, so to the noise floor of the frequency spectrograph higher requirement of having made an uproar, the gain method not too is fit to the noise factor of testing GSM zero intermediate frequency reciver.
When 2) adopting the noise factor of Y factor method measure GSM zero intermediate frequency reciver, the DC component of zero intermediate frequency reciver direct current biasing and noise figure meter device self can be measured to produce equally and disturb baseband signal, the Y factor error that measures is very big, and the noise factor precision that obtains is very low; And, adopt the Y factor method, need additionally acquire expensive noise figure meter device and noise head, cost is too high; In addition, expensive noise figure meter device is only to be used for the test noise coefficient, and utilization rate is lower, causes the wasting of resources.
