Description

Harmonic control network and design method of class-F power amplifier using same
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of power amplifiers, and particularly relates to a harmonic control network and a design method of an F-type power amplifier adopting the harmonic control network.
Background
Radio frequency microwave technology has been developed rapidly for over half a century and is widely used in the communication fields of mobile phones, satellite communication, WLAN and the like. The rf power amplifier module is an important component of a wireless communication system, and in order to satisfy the requirement of long-distance transmission of signals and ensure reliable reception of signals, the rf power amplifier module must be used for signal amplification in a wireless transceiving system. The performance of the power amplifier module therefore directly determines the operation of the entire transceiver system. The power amplifier module is of course the core part of the radio frequency front end.
With the continuous development of communication technology, the demand of people for communication technology is higher and higher, and power amplifiers are also more and more emphasized as important components in communication transceiving systems. Therefore, broadband high-efficiency rf power amplifiers are the central focus of research on rf power amplifiers today. The class-F power amplifier has the characteristic of high efficiency, so that the class-F power amplifier can be effectively used for base station construction. The class-F power amplifier is a special switch-type power amplifier, which makes full use of the control of each harmonic to make the efficiency reach 100% of theoretical value. Meanwhile, the class F power amplifier uses a passive load network to control each harmonic, so as to control the output voltage waveform and current waveform, which makes the class F power amplifier have lower requirements on transistors. However, the class F power amplifier in the prior art has the following problems: because the traditional class-F power amplifier utilizes the microstrip line to carry out harmonic control, the high Q value characteristic of the microstrip line often greatly limits the working bandwidth of the power amplifier. In previously designed circuits, the problem between the bandwidth and the harmonic control of class F power amplifiers has been addressed to some extent. However, a single microstrip tuning line has a problem: within the design bandwidth, there is a problem of significant drop in efficiency near the highest frequency point and the lowest frequency point, resulting in a problem of low flatness in the band. Therefore, how to solve the problem of low high and low frequencies in the band becomes a difficult point.

The end of the second microstrip line T2 connected to the third microstrip line T3 is also connected to the output of the drain bias circuit. The input fundamental wave matching circuit 1 and the output fundamental wave matching circuit 2 are obtained by impedance matching of a gate and a drain of a transistor, respectively.

The sum of the electrical lengths of the third microstrip line T3 and the fourth microstrip line T4 is between lambda/12.5 and lambda/11.5. λ is the electromagnetic wave wavelength.
The expression of the normalized impedance value z (z) of the tapered microstrip line at the center frequency is as follows:

The length l of the fourth microstrip line T4 is obtained from the equation (1)2The expression of (b) is shown in formula (3),

In the prior art, the harmonic control network only includes the third microstrip line T3, the fifth microstrip line T5 and the sixth microstrip line T6. According to the impedance transformation theory, the input impedance Z of the existing harmonic control network can be obtainedin(f) The formula (c) is shown in formula 4,

The size of the video bandwidth is determined according to the size of the input impedance, and the larger the input impedance is, the smaller the bandwidth is. Since the fifth microstrip line T5, the third microstrip line T3 and the sixth microstrip line T6 are directly determined according to the design requirement of the class F power amplifier. Therefore, the magnitude of the input impedance cannot be reduced by directly changing the characteristic impedance values of the fifth microstrip line T5, the third microstrip line T3, and the sixth microstrip line T6. The inability to reduce the input impedance makes the bandwidth of the conventional class F power amplifier unfeasible.

in the formula (5), Z5' is the total impedance value after the first microstrip line T1 and the second microstrip line T2 are connected in parallel with the fifth microstrip line T5, and the expression is shown in formula (6).

Figure BDA0001623339220000064
In the formula (9), lx5Is the electrical length of the fifth microstrip line T5.
Due to parallel connection rear resistanceResistance value decreases, so Z5The mode of' is necessarily smaller than the characteristic impedance value Z of the fifth microstrip line T55
Figure BDA0001623339220000065
Since the electrical length of the fourth microstrip line T4 is smaller than that of the third microstrip line T3, Z is a linear microstrip line4<Z3. Because of the electrical length l of the third microstrip line T3x3<Lambda/8, so tan (. beta.. l)x3) < 1, and further Z can be obtained3' modulus less than < Z3
It follows that, under the condition that the actual frequency f is not changed, Zin(f) ' must be less than Zin(f) Therefore, the video bandwidth of the present invention is necessarily larger than that of the existing harmonic control network.
And respectively carrying out efficiency analog simulation on the F-type power amplifier, the base station power amplifier and the conventional F-type power amplifier by using ADS software under the conditions that the input signal is continuous wave of 1.7-2.7GHz and the input power is 28 dBm. The simulation result is shown in fig. 2, and it can be seen that the drop of the base station power amplifier can only reach about 50%. The design bandwidth of the existing F-type power amplifier is only 200MHz, the efficiency can only reach more than 70% within the frequency band of 2.1-2.3GHz, and the requirement of the modern base station on the index of the power amplifier cannot be met. The efficiency of the F-type power amplifier can reach more than 70% in a frequency band of 1.7-2.7GHz, and therefore the invention can ensure the high efficiency of the power amplifier and greatly improve the video bandwidth.
