Specific embodiment
In order to better understand the above technical scheme, in conjunction with appended figures and specific embodiments to upper Technical solution is stated to be described in detail.
Its essence of near-field measurement system is the Superheterodyne receiving system of an internal loopback, when measuring ordinary passive antenna, The signal that near-field emissions machine issues is gone out through aerial radiation to be measured, and reception signal is sent to frequency converter for its down coversion by linear transducer array To intermediate frequency, the amplitude and phase information of signal is obtained after I/Q is demodulated, then subsequent processing completes measurement.And active antenna is certainly Oneself launches outward signal, does not need the signal input of near field system.At this moment what probe battle array received is the signal that active antenna issues, Rather than the signal that measuring system issues, two signals are uncorrelated, and demodulator cannot be completed to demodulate, therefore cannot get active antenna institute The amplitude and phase information of signalling cannot be completed to measure.
Use method provided by the invention, it is only necessary to several coaxial cables and several common radio-frequency devices, active antenna Signal coupling a part of sending introduces near-field measurement system, keeps it related to the reception system near field, i.e., available near field is completed Measurement to active antenna downlink three-dimensional figure.The result of near-field test output is in addition to this index of gain, remaining index It is all correct.Next, carrying out several simple adjustment to far field according to method of the invention, is read and believed by Network Analyzer Number receive level, in addition the composite loss such as cable waste and space loss, obtain the EIRP value of active antenna.It has been subtracted with EIRP Source antenna transmission power PTX can arrive to obtain the exact value of active antenna radiating element gain G A, complete measurement.
It using method proposed by the present invention, does not need to add dedicated equipment near field or far field, does not need change measurement Software is controlled, the measurement to active antenna down direction figure can be completed, sufficiently excavated the potentiality of measuring system, make existing Measuring system can take into account testing passive antenna and active antenna.
The embodiment one and embodiment two being described below all refer to SATIMO SG128 test macro, therefore right first SATIMO SG128 test macro is illustrated, to more fully understand the present invention.
SATIMO SG128 test macro can probably divide test hardware (signal source, converter unit, power amplifier and 127 Dual polarization field intensity probe etc.) and two parts of test software (Satimo test software, near field to far field data processing software).Secretly Room center is the annulus of an internal diameter 6.25M, and 127 probes are spaced 2.83 ° and successively arrange on annulus, and beneath is the five of Orbit Axis turntable.The lower right corner of annulus is then system meter, and instrument is placed in darkroom, can provide the ring of a long-term constant temperature and humidity The accuracy of instrumentation is improved in border.System block diagram is as shown in Figure 1:
Tested antenna, which is placed on antenna rotating platform, makees transmitting antenna, and 127 sampling probes receive.The work of basic frequency synthesizer Working frequency F0, i.e., the tranmitting frequency of tested antenna.The working frequency of side frequency synthesizer is F0+Fif, intermediate frequency Fif=10.7MHz. High frequency unit actually plays frequency conversion, and intermediate frequency is sent to I&Q demodulator.There is control electronics in probe controller Card, it is in addition to modulated signal FmExcept being added to each probe above, id signal Fi is successively alternately also added in each spy On head.Two polarization of each probe are respectively connected on a ring coil, and at some moment, the frequency of only one probe is Fif ±Fm, the frequency of other probes is Fif±Fm±Fi.The filtering of I&Q demodulator receives circuit and only receives Fif±FmSignal.In this way Alternately the real and imaginary parts of the electromagnetic field of each probe can be sampled out by lock detector, be sent into simulation/number Word converter.
After the sampled data for obtaining spherical surface near field, system will carry out the transformation near field to far field according to instruction, calculate The far-field pattern of tested antenna.In test process, antenna turns 180 °, and every turn of 2.57 ° of probes acquire on all test frequency points Data.Antenna transmitting signal probe bulb separation areal coordinate on θ andTwo polarization resolutes receive, and then synthesize that again A little actual vector field strength.The direction vector figure that all points of each angle form near field is integrated again.

8) adjustment near field receives link gain distribution, makes it be unlikely to full after the high level signal for receiving active antenna With.
Specific practice:The probe battle array signal of " ACTIVE MEASUREMENT TEST UNIT " equipment in systems receives Mouth " RX " mouth and " PROBE ARRAY " mouth seal in suitable coaxial attenuator.
9) cable (cable of the feeding F0 to antenna in Fig. 1) for being originally connected to passive antenna is vacant, does not take over what equipment.
10) measurement frequency that near field system is arranged is consistent with the tranmitting frequency of active antenna to be measured, and surveys a frequency every time Rate.
11) setting active antenna emits CW signal.
12) completing above-mentioned line can start to test with after setting as surveying passive antenna.The coaxial electrical additionally introduced Cable length pays attention to appropriateness there are surplus, avoids rotating in measurement process intermediate station and breaks cable.
13) coupled antenna position must be adjusted before formal measurement, so that low-noise amplifier output level is met near field requirement, together When coupled antenna do not influence to treat the measurement of observation line.
14) it is measured.In the measurement result of output, in addition to this index of gain, remaining index is all correct.
Embodiment three:
Far field is 43 meters × 20 meters × 20 meters indoor far fields, and antenna to be measured is Massive MIMO active antenna.When measurement, Wiring relationship is referring to fig. 4.For convenient for derive, it is specified that following mark:

The value of wushu (3-3) substitutes into formula (3-4), has:
EIRP=Rx2+72.78(dBm) (3-5)
And:GA=EIRP-PTX(dB) (3-6)
The transmission power P of active antennaTXBe it is known, substitute into formula (3-6) up to active antenna gain.It is measured.
