Detailed Description
The present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings for the purpose of illustrating in detail the technical contents, construction features, achieved objects and effects of the technical solution. The following examples are only for more clearly illustrating the technical aspects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 2, the rf TRX intermediate frequency filter multiplexing circuit in this embodiment includes a multiplexing filter module 100, where the multiplexing filter module 100 includes a receiving intermediate frequency filter 110, a common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150, and a plurality of switches. The plurality of change-over switches are used for keeping an open or closed state under the two modes of the TX mode and the RX mode, so that the selection and the switching of the multiplexing intermediate frequency filter are realized. Wherein the TX mode uses only the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150, and the RX mode requires the cascade of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 to achieve an order design that satisfies the original RX filter performance.
The receive intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150 are intermediate frequency filters.
The receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is used in the RX mode, and the order of the receiving intermediate frequency filter is the difference between the required order of the RX mode and the required order of the TX mode, and is a filter cascaded with the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 to satisfy the design order of the RX mode performance.
The common intermediate frequency filter 150 is an intermediate frequency filter multiplexed in the RX mode and in the TX mode, and has an order of TX mode requirement, and is a filter cascaded with the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 to satisfy the design order of the RX mode performance.
The common required order of the intermediate frequency filters of the TX and RX links is optimized, and the order of the filters actually designed in the links is reduced by multiplexing the same filters through a change-over switch, so that the area of a chip is reduced, and the optimization effect is obvious especially in chips with more channels.
For example, the RX mode of the original design architecture is a 4-order filter, the TX mode is a 2-order filter, the design area of the total 6-order filter is reduced, the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 can be designed to be a 2-order filter by reasonably distributing design parameters, the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is a 2-order filter, and the total 4-order filter multiplexing circuit is further reduced by the design area of the two-order filter compared with the original design architecture 6-order filter.
In the RX mode, the 2-order receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the 2-order common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 are cascaded to form a 4-order filter through the switching of the switching switch, and in the TX mode, the switching of the switching switch only reaches the 2-order filter through the 2-order common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150, so that the selection and switching of the multiplexing intermediate frequency filter are realized.
In other embodiments, the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 may be cascaded by two or more filters.
Similarly, the common multiplexed intermediate frequency filter 150 may be a cascade of two or more filters.
In the present embodiment, the plurality of switches includes a second switch 120, a third switch 130, a fourth switch 140, a sixth switch 160, a seventh switch 170, an eighth switch 180, an eighth switch 181, and a ninth switch 190. The RX link input point is connected to the first end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 through the second switch 120, the second end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is connected to the first end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 through the third switch 130, the second end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is connected to the RX link output point through the eighth switch 181, and at the same time, the second end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is connected to the first end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 through the eighth switch 180; the RX link input point is simultaneously connected to the first end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 via the seventh switch 170; a second terminal of the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150 is simultaneously connected to the RX link output point via a ninth switch 190. The first end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is further connected to the TX link input point via a sixth switch 160, and the second end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is further connected to the TX link output point via a fourth switch 140.
This connection can be switched according to the RX mode requirement.
The first switching mode is: first through the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150 and then through the receive intermediate frequency filter 110. The fourth switch 140, the sixth switch 160, the seventh switch 170, the eighth switch 180, and the ninth switch 190 are opened to ensure that no influence is caused to other branches, and the second switch 120, the third switch 130, and the eighth switch 181 are closed, so as to finally realize a cascade effect of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110, where the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is a first stage filter, and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is a second stage filter.
The second switching mode is as follows: first through the receive intermediate frequency filter 110 and then through the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150. The fourth switch 140, the sixth switch 160, the second switch 120, the third switch 130, and the eighth switch 181 are opened to ensure that no influence is caused to other branches, and the seventh switch 170, the eighth switch 180, and the ninth switch 190 are closed, so as to finally realize a cascading effect of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150, where the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is a first stage filter, and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is a second stage RX filter.
In TX mode, the switching implementation manner is that the second switch 120, the third switch 130, the seventh switch 170, the eighth switch 180, the eighth switch 181, and the ninth switch 190 are opened to ensure that no influence is generated on other branches, and the fourth switch 140 and the sixth switch 160 are closed, so as to finally achieve the purpose that the TX link only uses the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150.
The multiplexing circuit of the radio frequency TRX intermediate frequency filter changes the structure that the existing TX transmitting link and the existing RX receiving link work independently and have no coupling relation, so that the transmitting link and the receiving link exchange the multiplexing filter, the chip area is reduced, and the chip cost is reduced.

In this embodiment, the connection relationship between the plurality of switches and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is different from that of embodiment 1, so that the cascade effect of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is realized by different switching modes in the RX mode. The remainder was the same as in example 1.
As specifically described in connection with fig. 3, the switches include a second switch 120, a third switch 130, a fourth switch 140, and a sixth switch 160.

The switching mode realized by the connection mode according to the RX mode requirement is as follows: first through the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150 and then through the receive intermediate frequency filter 110. As shown in fig. 4, in the RX mode, the multiplexing circuit is switched to be implemented by opening the fourth switch 140 and the sixth switch 160 to ensure that no influence is exerted on other branches, and closing the second switch 120 and the third switch 130, so as to finally achieve the cascade effect of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110, where the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is a first stage filter, and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is a second stage filter.
Fig. 5 shows the final switching effect of the multiplexing circuit in TX mode, in which the second switch 120 and the third switch 130 are opened to ensure that no influence is exerted on other branches, and the fourth switch 140 and the sixth switch 160 are closed, so as to finally achieve the purpose that the TX link only uses the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150.
According to the technical scheme, the common required order of the intermediate frequency filters of the TX and RX links is optimized, the same filter is multiplexed by switching through the change-over switch, so that the order of the actually designed filter in the link is reduced, the area of a chip is reduced, and the optimization effect is obvious especially in chips with more channels.

In this embodiment, the connection relationship between the plurality of switches and the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is different from that of embodiment 1, so that the cascade effect of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is realized by different switching modes in the RX mode. The remainder was the same as in example 1.
As specifically described in connection with fig. 6, the switches include an eighth switch 180, a ninth switch 190, a fourth switch 140, and a sixth switch 160. The RX link input point is connected to a first end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110, a second end of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is connected to a first end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 via an eighth switch 180, and a second end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is connected to the RX link output point via a ninth switch 190. Meanwhile, the first end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is further connected to the TX link input point via the sixth switch 160, and the second end of the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is further connected to the TX link output point via the fourth switch 140.
The switching mode realized by the connection mode according to the RX mode requirement is as follows: first through the receive intermediate frequency filter 110 and then through the common multiplex intermediate frequency filter 150. As shown in fig. 7, in the RX mode, the multiplexing circuit is switched to be implemented by opening the fourth switch 140 and the sixth switch 160 to ensure that no influence is exerted on other branches, and closing the eighth switch 180 and the ninth switch 190, the cascade effect of the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is finally achieved, where the receiving intermediate frequency filter 110 is a first stage filter, and the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150 is a second stage RX filter.
Fig. 5 shows the final switching effect of the multiplexing circuit in TX mode, in which the eighth switch 180 and the ninth switch 190 are opened to ensure that no influence is exerted on other branches, and the fourth switch 140 and the sixth switch 160 are closed, so as to finally achieve the purpose that the TX link only uses the common multiplexing intermediate frequency filter 150.
The two connection modes of the embodiment 2 and the embodiment 3 have some differences in radio frequency index requirements of input and output OP1dB (1 dB compression point), OIP3 (three-time interception point output by an amplifier) and the like of the two-stage filter, and are selected according to actual design capability and requirements.
According to the technical scheme, the common required order of the intermediate frequency filters of the TX and RX links is optimized, the same filter is multiplexed by switching through the change-over switch, so that the order of the actually designed filter in the link is reduced, the area of a chip is reduced, and the optimization effect is obvious especially in chips with more channels.
