Detailed Description
In order that the above-recited objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to the appended drawings and appended detailed description. In addition, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other without collision.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, the present invention may be practiced in other ways than within the scope of the description, and the scope of the invention is therefore not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a multiple frequency sweep method, which is a method for controlling a frequency sweep frequency division ratio by a shift algorithm, thereby realizing a multiple octave frequency sweep function.
The embodiment of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme: the device comprises a sweep frequency module, a delta-sigma decimal modulator module, a phase-locked loop and a power frequency divider of 2, wherein the sweep frequency module, the delta-sigma decimal modulator module and the phase-locked loop are realized in multiple octaves. The algorithm of the first two modules is realized by synthesizing hardware description language (Hardware Description Language, HDL) (such as verilog language and the like) into a digital circuit, the integer frequency division ratio and the fractional frequency division ratio of the output of the sweep frequency module are used as the input of the delta-sigma fractional modulator, and the power frequency divider of 2 can be realized by adopting a digital circuit or an analog circuit.
The working frequency of the sweep frequency module is controlled by the phase discrimination frequency fref of the phase-locked loop, and in a locking state, the working frequency of the sweep frequency module and the working frequency of the delta-sigma decimal modulator are ensured to be the same and have fixed phase difference. In the circuit, the clock clk_ swp represented as a sweep module is connected with the phase discrimination clock clk_ref of the phase-locked loop, and for convenience of explanation, the invention provides that the values of the integer frequency division ratio nint and the fractional frequency division ratio nfrac of the sweep output are updated in response to the rising edge of the sweep clock clk_ swp, that is, when the rising edge of clk_ swp comes. The initial frequency dividing ratio odiv_str and the final frequency dividing ratio odiv_ trm of the external control signals are input to the frequency sweep module to be used as octave control for indicating a frequency multiplication algorithm of the frequency sweep module, and after algorithm processing, the frequency sweep module outputs a control word odiv_cal to a power frequency divider of 2 to be used as a frequency dividing ratio switching signal for controlling the power frequency divider of 2. The power frequency divider of 2 outputs a multi-octave sweep frequency signal to the outside.
In the present invention, the maximum frequency division ratio achievable by the power-of-2 frequency divider is set for odiv_str > odiv_ trm, with odiv_str corresponding to the minimum frequency division ratio achievable by the power-of-2 frequency divider. Since the frequency divider has a frequency division ratio that is a power of 2, odiv_str and odiv_ trm are each values that are powers of 2.
The connection diagram of the three modules of the sweep frequency module, the delta-sigma decimal modulator module and the power divider of 2 is shown in figure 1. The clocks of the frequency sweep module and the delta-sigma decimal modulator are respectively controlled by a phase discrimination clock and a frequency division clock of the phase-locked loop, on the other hand, a locking indication signal LDT output by the phase-locked loop is connected with the input of the frequency sweep module, the delta-sigma decimal modulator outputs a frequency division ratio to the phase-locked loop, a multi-octave algorithm of the frequency sweep module is controlled by an initial frequency division ratio and a termination frequency division ratio which are input externally, and the variable frequency division ratio is output to a power divider of 2.
For a single octave sweep module, a variable integer division ratio nint and fractional division ratio nfrac are output, and the relation between the two signals and the output frequency fout is as follows:
fout=fref×nint.nfrac。
where fref is the phase discrimination frequency of the phase locked loop, nint represents the integer part, nfrac represents the fractional part, for example 47 in 47.65 is nint,0.65 is nfrac, and nint.nfrac is accumulated or decremented according to a fixed sweep step, so that the output frequency fout is linear, and in this way FMCW is realized. The range of the single octave swept output is determined by the range of nint.nfrac (maximum nint.nfrac@max and minimum nint.nfrac@min), i.e. the range of fout is maximum fref× (nint.nfrac@max) and minimum fref× (nint.nfrac@min).
In the following, nfrac needs to be converted to binary by the following formula: decimal nfracx 2^p, then converted to binary nfrac. Where p is the number of bits of the delta-sigma fractional modulator.
For a multi-octave sweep module, since the division ratio of the power divider of 2 can be controlled, and odiv_str corresponds to the maximum division ratio achievable by the power divider of 2, the minimum value of the frequency range fout of the achievable sweep output is fref× (nint.nfrac@min)/odiv_str, and odiv_ trm corresponds to the minimum division ratio achievable by the power divider of 2, and the maximum value of the frequency range fout of the achievable sweep output is fref× (nint.nfrac@max)/odiv_ trm. Compared with a single octave frequency sweep module, the output frequency range of the multi-octave frequency sweep module is greatly increased (for example, the odiv_ trm is set to be 1 frequency division), so that the range of practical application is further expanded.
The multi-octave frequency sweep method applied by combining the power divider of 2 comprises 8 states, including an initialization and locking judgment state (marked as S1), a frequency sweep mode judgment state (marked as S2), an uplink frequency sweep state (marked as S3), a downlink frequency sweep state (marked as S4), an initial unlocking processing state (marked as S5), an uplink unlocking processing state (marked as S6), a downlink unlocking processing state (marked as S7) and a termination state (marked as S8), and the switching among the states is shown in figure 2.
The frequency sweep direction comprises an uplink frequency sweep and a downlink frequency sweep. The initial frequency of the uplink frequency sweep, namely the frequency sweep, is smaller than the final frequency, and the uplink frequency sweep is represented as a slope upward on a relation chart taking a time axis as a horizontal axis and a frequency axis as a vertical axis; the initial frequency fstr of the downlink frequency sweep is larger than the final frequency ftrm, and the downlink frequency sweep is characterized by downward slope on a relation graph with a time axis as a horizontal axis and a frequency axis as a vertical axis.

Thirdly, judging the state of the current phase-locked loop through the locking instruction LDT, and entering the next state S2 if the phase-locked loop is in a locked state. If the phase-locked loop is in an unlocking state, the phase-locked loop is switched from an S1 state to an S5 state, enters a re-locking process, returns to the S1 state after locking is completed, and is immediately switched to an S2 state.
The S2 state of the invention judges the frequency sweep mode according to the externally set frequency sweep mode and judges the frequency sweep direction (uplink or downlink), and the steps of the state are as follows:
the first step is to make a decision according to an externally set sweep frequency mode. Taking the invention as an example, the sweep frequency modes comprise three modes of continuous bidirectional sweep frequency, trigger type bidirectional sweep frequency and trigger type unidirectional sweep frequency. The continuous bidirectional frequency sweep refers to that the uplink frequency sweep and the downlink frequency sweep are alternately performed, namely, the downlink frequency sweep is performed immediately after the uplink frequency sweep, the uplink frequency sweep is performed immediately after the downlink frequency sweep, and the like, and the frequency sweep is continuously performed, so that triangular waveforms are realized; the trigger type bidirectional frequency sweep is similar to the direction of continuous bidirectional frequency sweep, and the uplink and downlink frequency sweeps are alternately carried out, but the uplink or downlink frequency sweep needs to be controlled and started by an external trigger signal; the triggering unidirectional frequency sweep adopts an uplink frequency sweep, and returns to a starting frequency point after the uplink frequency sweep is finished, and the starting of each uplink frequency sweep is controlled by an external triggering signal. For the sweep mode of this state, for example, a mode of adding an arbitrary sweep waveform can be referred to in the patent of the application, "arbitrary waveform sweep method based on a continuously controlled delta-sigma decimal modulator".
Setting an odiv change direction pointer, namely indicating the change condition of the frequency division ratio of the power frequency divider of 2 in the frequency sweeping process, wherein the pointer is marked as odiv_updw, when the odiv changes from a high frequency division ratio to a low frequency division ratio, the frequency sweeping is performed from a low frequency to a high frequency, and if no jump exists, the odiv_up=1 is set as the frequency sweeping pointer; when odiv changes from low to high frequency, the sweep is from high to low frequency, odiv_dw=1, and 0 if there is no transition. By setting the odiv_up and odiv_dw pointers, continuous coverage of the sweep frequency can be realized between different octaves. And storing the odiv_str in a temporary register odiv_tmp, switching to the next octave after the sweep of one octave is completed, updating the corresponding odiv_tmp, and ending the updating until the odiv_ trm is reached.
And thirdly, after the sweep frequency mode is determined, the uplink or downlink sweep frequency needs to be judged. Taking the invention as an example, for continuous bidirectional frequency sweep and trigger bidirectional frequency sweep, when uplink frequency sweep is adopted, the state S2 is switched to the state S3, and when downlink frequency sweep is adopted, the state S2 is switched to the state S4. For the triggered unidirectional sweep, the current state S2 is directly switched to the state S3 because only the uplink sweep is adopted.
S3 is uplink sweep frequency treatment.
The method comprises the following steps:
the first step is to obtain an increment of the frequency division ratio of the sweep module by accumulating nfrac_tmp in steps controlled by clk_ swp clock, i.e. updating the values of nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp once every time clk_ swp rises;
secondly, after the steps are finished, if the abnormal state of the lock loss occurs, the abnormal processing stage after the lock loss needs to be immediately shifted to, namely, judging whether the state switching is performed or not through a locking instruction LDT, and switching from the S3 state to the S6 state when the lock loss occurs; if the lock is still maintained, continuing the present state (S3);
third, a decision is made as to whether nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp have reached the ending integer divide ratio and ending fractional divide ratio, the arrival decisions being made according to the following criteria:
1) When the current power of 2 divider has a division ratio of odiv_ trm and nint_tmp > nint_ trm _expansion;
2) When nint_tmp=nint_ trm _expansion and nfrac_tmp > nfrac_ trm _expansion.
When the two criteria are met, it is considered that the two criteria arrive, and the switch from the S3 state to the S8 state is needed. If neither is satisfied, the present state is continued (S3).
The S4 is downlink sweep frequency treatment, and comprises the following steps:
first, a gradual decrease of the frequency division ratio of the sweep module is obtained by decrementing nfrac_tmp in steps controlled by clk_ swp clock, i.e. once every time the rising edge of clk_ swp, the values of nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp are updated once;
secondly, after the steps are finished, if the abnormal state of the lock loss occurs, the abnormal processing stage after the lock loss needs to be immediately shifted to, namely, judging whether the state switching is performed or not through a locking instruction LDT, and switching from the S4 state to the S7 state when the lock loss occurs; if the lock is still maintained, continuing the present state (S4);
third, a decision is made as to whether nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp have reached the starting integer divide ratio and the starting fractional divide ratio of the first segment, the arrival decision being made according to the following criteria:

When the two criteria are met, it is considered that the two criteria arrive, and the switch from the S4 state to the S8 state is needed. If neither is satisfied, the present state is continued (S4).
The step of S5 state is to make the timer count from 0 by configuring the time length of the timer externally, and switch from S5 state to S1 state after the timer is full, in order to make the sweep frequency module enter sleep, and wait for the phase-locked loop to finish locking from losing lock to re-locking in the sleep process.

And secondly, the timer is timed from 0 by externally configuring the duration of the timer, and the state is switched from the S6 state to the S3 state after the timer is full, so that the sweep frequency module is put into dormancy, and the phase-locked loop is waited for finishing the process from losing lock to re-locking in the dormancy process.
The step of S7 state of the invention is:
in the first step, when the pointer odiv_dw=1, the division ratio of the power divider of 2 is shifted from a low division ratio to a high division ratio, and the values in nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp are multiplied by 2 respectively to adapt to the new octave, and the shift algorithm is performed on the binary system to shift one bit leftwards at the same time.
And secondly, the timer is timed from 0 by externally configuring the duration of the timer, and the state is switched from the S7 state to the S4 state after the timer is full, so that the sweep frequency module is put into dormancy, and the phase-locked loop is waited to finish locking from unlocking to re-locking in the dormancy process.
The S8 state is the next state judged according to the frequency sweep mode, when the frequency sweep mode is continuous, the state is switched from S8 to S2 in the continuous bidirectional frequency sweep mode, and a new round of uplink and downlink frequency sweep is automatically entered, so that continuous frequency sweep work is realized; when the sweep frequency mode is trigger type, in the invention, the trigger type bidirectional sweep frequency and the trigger type unidirectional sweep frequency are switched from S8 to S1, a relock process is needed to be entered, and after the relock is finished, the S1 is switched to S2, an instruction command of an external trigger signal is waited, and a new round of sweep frequency is entered, so that the trigger type sweep frequency is realized.
The transition diagram of each state described above is shown in fig. 2.
Starting to enter an S1 state from the starting sweep frequency, after the configuration of the initialization parameters is completed in the S1, switching to an S5 state if the initialization parameters are unlocked, switching back to the S1 state after waiting for the phase-locked loop to be locked again in the S5 state, and switching to an S2 state if the initialization parameters are locked; in the S2 state, the sweep frequency mode judgment is carried out, in the judgment of the sweep frequency direction, if the sweep frequency is the uplink sweep frequency, the S2 is switched to the S3 state, if the sweep frequency is the downlink sweep frequency, the S2 is switched to the S4 state, and the pointer of the power frequency division ratio jump of 2 is set so as to indicate the octave switching of the sweep frequency; in the S3 state, uplink sweep frequency control is carried out, judgment of ending the frequency division ratio is carried out, locking judgment is carried out at the same time, and if the lock is lost, switching to S6 is carried out; in the S4 state, downlink sweep frequency control is carried out, judgment of reaching an initial frequency division ratio is carried out, locking judgment is carried out at the same time, and if the lock is lost, switching to S7 is carried out; s5, carrying out locking judgment in the initial process, and switching back to the S1 state if the locking is carried out; s6, carrying out locking judgment in the uplink process, and switching back to the S3 state if the locking is carried out; s7, carrying out locking judgment in the downlink process, and switching back to the S4 state if the locking is carried out; and S8, determining to enter the next section of frequency sweeping state according to the frequency sweeping mode, switching to S2 if the frequency sweeping is continuous, and switching to S1 if the frequency sweeping is triggered.
Example two
Based on the first embodiment, the second embodiment of the invention takes the triangular wave for realizing continuous bidirectional frequency sweep as an example, the time length of the uplink and downlink frequency sweep parts of the triangular wave is 50us, the phase discrimination frequency of the clock output to the frequency sweep module by the phase-locked loop is 100MHz, the frequency division frequency of the clock output to the delta-sigma decimal modulator is 100MHz, and the delta-sigma decimal modulator is 8 bits. The lowest frequency division ratio configured under single octave is 42, the fractional frequency division ratio is 0.5, the highest frequency division ratio is 47, the fractional frequency division ratio is 0.5, the lowest frequency under single octave is 4250MHz, the highest frequency is 4750MHz, and the sweep frequency step is obtained by the formula step=t×fref. The highest frequency division ratio of the power of 2 divider is 2 and the lowest frequency division ratio is 1.
The following parameters are correspondingly configured:
nint_str=42
nfrac_str=0.5
step=5000
nint_trm=47
nfrac_trm=0.5
odiv_str=2
odiv_trm=1
the lowest frequency of the frequency-multiplied sweep is 2125MHz by the formula fref× (nint. Nfrac@min)/odiv_str, and the highest frequency is 4750Mz by the formula fref× (nint. Nfrac@max)/odiv_ trm. Compared with the single octave frequency sweep range, the frequency sweep range of multiple frequency is expanded by 2125MHz.
The above configuration satisfies the design requirements of the triangular wave described above.
The sweep is started, the S1 state is entered, the configured nint_str=42 is stored in the temporary register nint_tmp, nfrac_str=0.5 is stored in the temporary register nfrac_tmp, and the same time, the rising edge of clk_ swp is temporarily output to the delta-sigma decimal modulator. Judging the state of the current phase-locked loop through the locking instruction LDT, and switching from the S1 state to the S5 state if the phase-locked loop is in an unlocking state; the initial state of the phase-locked loop in the embodiment is an out-of-lock state, the phase-locked loop is switched from the S1 state to the S5 state, the sweep frequency module enters dormancy through the time length of an external configuration timer in the S5, the phase-locked loop waits for the completion of the out-of-lock to the re-lock in the dormancy process, and the phase-locked loop is switched from the S5 state to the S1 state.
Shifting algorithm operation is carried out on the input initial integer frequency division ratio nint_str, the initial fractional frequency division ratio nfrac_str and the initial odiv frequency division ratio odiv_str, and the shifting algorithm operation is processed into an extended initial integer frequency division ratio nint_str_expansion and an extended initial fractional frequency division ratio nfrac_str_expansion; the algorithm processing method comprises the following steps:
1) Since odiv_str=2, i.e. when the starting odiv frequency division ratio is 2, the integer frequency division ratio nint_str and the fractional frequency division ratio nfrac_str need to be multiplied by 2, and the carry problem of nfrac_str needs to be considered, the following steps are adopted:
a) Respectively converting the two into binary, wherein the bit number is agreed to be 8 bits, nint_str=42 is converted into binary 00101010, and the formula is as follows: decimal nfrac_str× 2^8 =128, and converting into binary nfrac_str to obtain 10000000;
b) Shifting nint_str by 1 bit to the left and temporarily storing as nint_str_a= 01010100, corresponding to decimal value 84;
c) Judging whether to carry according to whether the highest bit of nfrac_str is 1, and if the highest bit of nfrac_str is 1, 1 bit needs to be fed into the integer, namely, nint_str_a+1=nint_str_expansion, so that 01010101 is obtained, and the corresponding decimal is 85;
d) Then shift left by 1 bit to nfrac_str to obtain nfrac_str_expansion
nfracstr_expansion=00000000, corresponding to decimal 0;
e) As can be seen from the above verification, 42.5×2=85.
2) When odiv_ trm =1, i.e., the ending odiv division ratio is 1 division, nint_ trm _expansion=nint_ trm, nfrac_ trm _expansion=nfrac_ trm, i.e., nint_ trm _expansion=00101111, nfractrm_expansion=10000000.
The frequency division ratio of the power divider of 2 is then indicated in the S1 state from high frequency division ratio 2 to low frequency division ratio 1 in the upstream frequency sweep and from low frequency division ratio 1 to high frequency division ratio 2 in the downstream frequency sweep. And then judging the state of the current phase-locked loop through the locking instruction LDT, and entering the next state S2 if the phase-locked loop is in a locking state. If the phase-locked loop is in an unlocking state, the phase-locked loop is switched from an S1 state to an S5 state, enters a re-locking process, returns to the S1 state after locking is completed, and is immediately switched to an S2 state.
In the S2 state, the sweep mode is first determined, and when the uplink sweep is adopted, the state S2 is switched to the state S3, the uplink sweep stage is entered first, and odiv_str=2 is stored in the temporary register odiv_tmp, because the continuous bidirectional sweep is adopted as a design requirement.
In the S3 state, step=5000 is added up nfrac_tmp to obtain increment of frequency division ratio of the sweep frequency module, so as to realize uplink sweep frequency, the step is controlled by clk_ swp clock, that is, every time clk_ swp rising edge comes, the values of nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp complete updating once, after this step is completed, if abnormal out-of-lock occurs, it is required to immediately shift to an abnormal processing stage after out-of-lock, that is, by locking to instruct LDT to decide whether to switch state, in the present example, the phase-locked loop still remains locked, then the present state is continued (S3); a pointer signal indicating an octave switch is set. At the same time, it is determined whether or not the nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp reach the ending integer division ratio nint_ trm _expansion and the ending fractional division ratio nfrac_ trm _expansion, which are not satisfied in this case, and the present state is continued (S3). When the octave has been scanned, in this case, the sweep frequency range is 2125M-4250 MHz. The indication signal odiv_up=1 indicates that when the next octave needs to be entered, an out-of-lock will occur, and the up-going out-of-lock processing state S6 is immediately entered. In this case, switching from a high division ratio of 2 to a low division ratio of 1, the second octave stage is entered.
In the S6 state, in response to the indication signal of odiv_up=1, the operations of dividing 2 by nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp are performed, that is, the operations of shifting 1 bit to the right in the two-way operation are performed, and the locked state is returned to the S3 state after the locked state is entered.
Continuing the increment operation of the uplink sweep frequency of the second octave stage in the S3 state, if the targets of ending the integer frequency division ratio and ending the fractional frequency division ratio are met, namely, when one of the following conditions is met:
1) When the current power of 2 divider has a division ratio of odiv_ trm and nint_tmp > nint_ trm _expansion;
2) When nint_tmp=nint_ trm _expansion and nfrac_tmp > nfrac_ trm _expansion.
Then enter state S8, finish the second octave up sweep frequency range is 4250M-4750 MHz, the continuous switching of two octaves has realized 2125M-4750 MHz up sweep frequency range.
In S8, the continuous bidirectional sweep is judged according to the sweep mode, and then the switching is carried out to S2. In S2, the frequency sweep is switched from the uplink frequency sweep to the downlink frequency sweep, and the frequency sweep is switched from S2 to S4.
In S4, the gradual reduction of the frequency division ratio of the sweep frequency module is obtained by decrementing nfrac_tmp by a step step=5000, the step is controlled by the clk_ swp clock, that is, the values of the nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp are updated once every time the rising edge of clk_ swp is reached, when this step is completed, if an abnormality of lock loss occurs, it is required to immediately shift to an abnormality processing stage after lock loss, that is, by locking to instruct LDT decision whether to perform state switching, in this example, the phase locked loop still remains locked, then the present state is continued (S4), while decision is made as to whether the nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp reach the initial integer division ratio nint_str and the final fractional division ratio nfrac_str, and when not satisfied, the present state is continued (S4). When the octave has been scanned, in this case, the sweep frequency range is 4750M-4250 MHz. The indication signal odiv_dw=1 indicates that when the next octave needs to be entered, an out-of-lock will occur, and the uplink out-of-lock processing state S7 is immediately shifted. In this case, switching from a low division ratio of 1 to a high division ratio of 2, the second octave stage is entered.
In the S7 state, in response to the indication signal of odiv_dw=1, the multiplication 2 operation is performed on nint_tmp and nfrac_tmp, i.e. 1 bit shift to the left is performed on the two-way, and the re-lock stage is entered, and the state returns to the S4 state after locking.
Continuing the decrementing operation of the upstream sweep of the second octave stage in the S4 state if the objectives of reaching the initial integer divide ratio and the initial fractional divide ratio are met, i.e., when one of the following conditions is met:
1) When the current division ratio of the power-of-2 divider is odiv_str and nint_tmp < nint_str_expansion;
2) When nint_tmp=nint_str_expansion and nfrac_tmp < nfrac_str_expansion.
Then enter state S8, finish the up sweep frequency range of the second octave as 4250M-2125 MHz, the continuous switching of two octaves has realized the downstream sweep frequency range of 4750M-2125 MHz.
In S8, the continuous bidirectional sweep is judged according to the sweep mode, and then the switching is carried out to S2. In S2, the frequency sweep is switched from the downlink frequency sweep to the uplink frequency sweep, and the operation steps are repeated from S2 to S3, so that continuous bidirectional frequency sweep is realized.
