101: and the test terminal acquires the frequency band and the bandwidth supported by the intelligent terminal.
In this embodiment, the test terminal includes an upper computer and a spectrum analyzer, wherein the upper computer includes a computer.
The intelligent terminal comprises intelligent equipment such as a smart phone and a tablet personal computer. In a specific test scenario, the upper computer is connected with the spectrum analyzer through a universal interface bus so that data can be transmitted between the upper computer and the spectrum analyzer. Meanwhile, the intelligent terminal is respectively connected with the upper computer and the spectrum analyzer to transmit data.
In one embodiment, the host computer and the spectrum analyzer are connected through a General-Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) Interface line. Meanwhile, the intelligent terminal is connected with an upper computer in the test terminal through a USB line, and the intelligent terminal is connected with a spectrum analyzer in the test terminal through an RF Cable line. In this embodiment, the power supply types of the intelligent terminal are various, for example, the power supply can be performed by a built-in battery of the intelligent terminal, such as a lithium battery; power may also be supplied by an external power source, such as a digital power source. In a specific embodiment, when the intelligent terminal is powered by a digital power supply, the test terminal further comprises the digital power supply, and the digital power supply is connected with the upper computer through a GPIB interface line to transmit data; and the test terminal controls the digital power supply to be turned on or off according to the actual test condition so as to control the on-off of the intelligent terminal power supply. In addition, the voltage output by the digital power supply is optional and depends on the power supply voltage required by the intelligent terminal, for example, the voltage output by the digital power supply can be set to be 3.8V to supply power to the intelligent terminal.
Generally, in a development stage, a frequency band spurious response of an intelligent terminal needs to be tested and subjected to related authentication, and at present, the testing and the related authentication are performed in a signaling mode of the intelligent terminal, wherein the signaling mode is used for simulating normal operation of the intelligent terminal and comprises a transmitting mode and a receiving mode. However, the performance of the product in the research and development stage is not perfect, the situation that the signal mode cannot be entered often occurs, the stray situation of the LTE frequency band of the intelligent terminal cannot be tested at the moment, the testing efficiency is not high, and the testing speed of the product is influenced.
In order to improve the testing speed, in this embodiment, after the intelligent terminal is powered on, the testing terminal starts a testing mode matched with the power supply type according to the power supply type of the intelligent terminal, and controls the intelligent terminal to enter a non-signaling mode through the USB interface line, where the non-signaling mode refers to that the intelligent terminal is only in one of a receiving mode or a transmitting mode.
The frequency band spurious problem usually occurs when in the transmit mode, which is explained here with the smart terminal in the transmit mode. When the intelligent terminal is in a transmitting mode, the testing terminal acquires a frequency band and a bandwidth supported by the intelligent terminal. The frequency range of the band in the present embodiment is determined according to the LTE band specified in the 3GPP TS 36.521-1V14.1.0(2016-12) protocol. Specifically, the bandwidths corresponding to different frequency bands are different, and the same frequency band also corresponds to different bandwidths, and is related to the product specification or product trend of the intelligent terminal.

The bandwidth of the present embodiment is determined according to a specific bandwidth corresponding to the LTE band specified in the 3GPP TS 36.521-1V14.1.0(2016-12) protocol. For example, when the frequency band supported by the smart terminal is 1920MHz to 1980MHz, the frequency bandwidths of the bandwidths corresponding to the frequency band include 5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, and 20 MHz. The corresponding bandwidth can be selected according to the actual situation under the frequency band.

The preset scanning frequency comprises a preset starting scanning frequency and a preset cut-off scanning frequency.
Specifically, the preset initial scanning frequency is the frequency corresponding to the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal plus three times of the bandwidth, and can be determined according to the following formula (4):
F0=F+B*3 (4)
wherein, B is the actual bandwidth of the current test frequency band, and F is the frequency of the test frequency point.
For example, when the intelligent terminalThe frequency of the test frequency point of the terminal in the non-signaling mode is f31922.5MHz, 5MHz as the actual bandwidth B of the current testing frequency band, when the frequency point is transmitted with maximum power, the scanning frequency F is started01937.5 MHz. In addition, in order to make the scanning range larger, the frequency range of the second harmonic and the third harmonic of the test frequency point can be covered, and the preset cut-off scanning frequency is 18 GHz.
After the initial scanning frequency and the termination scanning frequency are determined, the test terminal scans data transmitted by the intelligent terminal according to the initial scanning frequency and the termination scanning frequency and obtains power corresponding to the current scanning frequency.

Meanwhile, whether the actual power exceeds the preset power is judged and determined, and a test report is generated according to the test result. The test report visually displays the actual power of the data which is correspondingly transmitted by the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal under the scanning frequency.
Here, it should be noted that the preset power is a power limit value, and is used as a reference for measuring whether the transmission power corresponding to the frequency point exceeds the power limit value, and when the actual power corresponding to any test frequency point exceeds the preset power, the condition that frequency band strays exist in the frequency band is represented.

In this embodiment, the program 31 determines a plurality of test frequency points of the intelligent terminal according to the frequency band and the bandwidth.
The number of the test frequency points may be 2 or 3 or other values, such as 5, and may be determined according to an actual test situation.
Specifically, the number of test frequency points is 3. The test frequency points are respectively a middle test frequency point, a low-frequency test frequency point and a high-frequency test frequency point. In addition, the corresponding frequency of the test frequency point can be determined by the frequency band and the bandwidth. Specifically, the frequency band of the intelligent terminal includes an initial frequency point and a termination frequency point, and the frequency f of the intermediate test frequency point can be determined according to the formula (1)2,
f2=f0+(f1-f0)/2 (1)
Wherein f is0Frequency of the starting frequency point, f1Is the frequency of the termination bin.
Further, according to the initial frequency point and the bandwidth, determining the frequency f of the low-frequency test frequency point according to the formula (2)3,
f3=f0+W/2 (2)
Wherein f is0Is the frequency of the initial frequency point, and W is the frequency bandwidth of the bandwidth.
And finally, determining the frequency f of the high-frequency test frequency point according to the formula (3) according to the termination frequency point and the bandwidth4,
f4=f1-W/2 (3)
Wherein f is1W is the frequency bandwidth of the bandwidth for the stop bin.
Here, in order to describe the method for determining the frequencies corresponding to the intermediate test frequency point, the low frequency test frequency point, and the high frequency test frequency point more intuitively. The frequency band is 1920 MHz-1980 MHz, and the bandwidth of the bandwidth is 5MHz, i.e., f0=1920MHz,f1=1980MHz,W=5MHz。
According to the formula (1), the frequency of the intermediate test frequency point is f21950 MHz; of low-frequency test frequency pointsFrequency f31922.5 MHz; frequency f of high-frequency test frequency point4=1977.5MHz。
In this embodiment, after determining the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal, the processor 22 sends a control instruction, so that the intelligent terminal sequentially transmits data at the test frequency point according to the set maximum power in the non-signaling mode. The maximum power setting can be determined by the maximum transmitting power of the intelligent terminal and can also be determined according to the actual test condition.
In one embodiment, the processor 22 controls the spectrum analyzer through the GPIB interface line, so that the spectrum analyzer obtains the actual power of the intelligent terminal when the intelligent terminal transmits data at a plurality of test frequency points in sequence according to the set maximum power.
In another embodiment, the processor 22 scans the intelligent terminal at a plurality of test frequency points sequentially according to the set maximum power emission data through a preset scanning frequency to obtain the actual power corresponding to the scanning frequency. The preset scanning frequency comprises a preset starting scanning frequency and a preset cut-off scanning frequency.
Specifically, the preset initial scanning frequency is the frequency corresponding to the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal plus three times of the bandwidth, and can be determined according to the following formula (4):
F0=F+B*3 (4)
wherein, B is the actual bandwidth of the current test frequency band, and F is the frequency of the test frequency point.
For example, when the frequency of the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal in the non-signaling mode is f31922.5MHz, 5MHz as the actual bandwidth B of the current testing frequency band, when the frequency point is transmitted with maximum power, the scanning frequency F is started01937.5 MHz. In addition, in order to make the scanning range larger, the frequency range of the second harmonic and the third harmonic of the test frequency point can be covered, and the preset cut-off scanning frequency is 18 GHz.
After determining the start scanning frequency and the end scanning frequency, the processor 22 scans data transmitted by the intelligent terminal according to the start scanning frequency and the end scanning frequency, and obtains power corresponding to the current scanning frequency.
In the present embodiment, the processor 22 generates a spectrogram having the scanning frequency as the abscissa and the actual power as the ordinate, based on the acquired actual power. Meanwhile, whether the actual power exceeds the preset power is judged and determined, and a test report is generated according to the test result. The test report visually displays the actual power of the data which is correspondingly transmitted by the test frequency point of the intelligent terminal under the scanning frequency.
Here, it should be noted that the preset power is a power limit value, and is used as a reference for measuring whether the transmission power corresponding to the frequency point exceeds the power limit value, and when the actual power corresponding to any test frequency point exceeds the preset power, the condition that frequency band strays exist in the frequency band is represented.
Different from the prior art, the radio frequency testing method of the embodiment tests the radio frequency of the intelligent terminal, determines a plurality of testing frequency points of the intelligent terminal according to the frequency band and the bandwidth supported by the intelligent terminal, obtains the actual power of the intelligent terminal when the data is transmitted at the plurality of testing frequency points according to the set maximum power in sequence, judges whether the actual power exceeds the preset power, generates a testing report according to the judgment result, and improves the testing speed.
The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and all modifications of equivalent structures and equivalent processes performed by the present specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are included in the scope of the present invention.
