Fig. 2 is a structural diagram of a vector transceiver unit, which is a unit for dual-transceiver (2T 2R) composed of two identical rf transceiver circuits. The working mode is explained by taking RTX1 as an example:
the radio frequency SW1 is a receiving and transmitting change-over switch, and the circuit works in a receiving state or a transmitting state respectively by switching different channels; the receiving channel mainly comprises a low pass filter (LPF 1), a low noise amplifier (LNA 1), an attenuator, an IQ demodulator (DEM 1) and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The low pass filter LPF1 mainly rejects out-of-band signals and prevents the introduction of additional spurs into the demodulator. The LNA1 is used to increase the sensitivity of the receiving channel and can be gated by the rf switches (SW 2 and SW 3). The radio frequency attenuator is used for improving the capability of receiving high-power signals by radio frequency and expanding the measurement range of the whole receiving channel. A demodulator (DEM 1) decomposes an input radio frequency signal into analog I and Q orthogonal baseband signals, and the two orthogonal baseband signals respectively enter an analog-to-digital converter (ADC 1) and an ADC2 for digitalization and then enter a baseband unit (BB) for processing;
the transmitting channel mainly comprises a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), an IQ modulator (MOD 1), a power amplifier (PA 1), an attenuator (ATT 2) and a band-pass filter (BPF 1). Digital IQ signals from a baseband unit are converted into analog baseband IQ signals through digital-to-analog converters (DAC 1 and DAC 2), and after the analog baseband IQ signals enter an IQ modulator (MOD 1), a power amplifier (PA 1) is used for increasing the maximum transmission power of a transmission channel, an attenuator (ATT 2) is used for reducing the minimum generation power of the generation channel, and a band-pass filter is used for suppressing output signal stray;

The working frequency range of the frequency mixer is limited, an input signal is divided into two paths for processing through a radio frequency switch (SW 11), the two paths of signals are respectively subjected to frequency conversion to a specified intermediate frequency through the frequency mixers (MIX 1 and MIX 2), and a local oscillator (LO 3) required by the frequency mixer is shared. The intermediate frequency signal enters an analog-to-digital converter (ADC 5) after being amplified for digitalization, and then enters a baseband processing unit.
FIG. 4 is a diagram of a vector network test cell configuration, primarily for implementing testing of DUT port standing waves. It consists of a reference source (RFS), a directional Coupler (CPL), mixers (MIX 3 and MIX 4) and an ADC. The reference source (RFS) signal is output after passing through the directional Coupler (CPL), which mixes the coupled signal and the transmit signal with the local oscillator (LO 4) respectively (fig. 5 is a structural diagram of a multifunctional matrix switch, which mainly consists of 4 SP4T radio frequency switches (SW 13-SW 16) and 3 SP2T radio frequency switches (SW 17-SW 19) and a noise source (NSS). The noise source (NSS) generates a broadband noise signal for measuring a noise coefficient, which is distributed to all test ports (RF 1-RF 8) after passing through the radio frequency switches. Similarly, all radio frequency ports (RF 1-RF 8) can pass through the matrix switch to enter the spectrum analysis unit and the vector network analysis unit.
Fig. 6 is a baseband unit configuration diagram, which mainly comprises a main controller, a clock generation circuit, a DDR memory and a DSP/FPGA unit, wherein the main controller is responsible for the control of the whole device and the external communication (LAN port), and the clock generator generates clocks required by each ADC or DAC and provides phase-locked loop reference signals for each local oscillator signal. The DSP/FPGA circuit mainly realizes the control of hardware and the processing and testing tasks of digital signals.
