Abstract

The present invention relates to a RF connector arrangement. A 90 degree hybrid circuit is applied at each side of the connector to divide a signal into two paths. If the connector is disconnected, signals reflected in each path will cancel each other since they are 180 degrees out of phase. This is useful, for instance, in base transceiver stations with empty transceiver slots since no reflection occurs in these slots even though no terminating circuit is used.

Fig. 1 has illustrated a plurality of transceiver units that are connected to a base station system according to prior art.Transceiver unit is connected to a general combiner network 102, and therefore shares a general antenna unit 103, and this is well-known in this area.In this diagram, combiner network 102 is configured to receive seven transceiver units.Because only need six unit 101a-101f, alternately be terminating unit 104 of a transceiver trough assembling, connect by electrical connector 105.
Fig. 2 has diagrammatically illustrated two transceiver unit 201a, 201b that are connected to a base station system according to the present invention by electrical connector.It should be noted that scope of the present invention is not limited to this application-specific.According to electrical connector of the present invention, and the connector unit that is suitable for this connector apparatus, connector be connected on the functional unit separably and many RF that need avoid reflecting very useful in using.
Here described a kind of situation, wherein signal sends to from first lead 203 that is suitable for base station system 202 that to be suitable for transceiver unit 201a be second lead 204.But above-mentioned connector apparatus 202 is considered to completely reversibility, if therefore transmission direction on the contrary then function is identical.The term connector should provide one within the scope of the present invention and explain widely.Therefore connector is often referred to the device of electric energy transmitting, as a pair of cable, coaxial cable, microstrip, strip line or waveguide.
First lead 203 is connected to first port 205 of first mixed circuit component 206.Therefore the signal of using is split evenly and sends to second and the 3rd port 207,208 of first mixed circuit component 206.Because mixed circuit component in this case is one 90 degree hybrid circuit,, many λ/4=90 degree than the signal phase shift that occurs at second port 207 so the signal that occurs at the 3rd port 208 of mixed circuit component 206 is compared with input signal.Therefore λ is the wavelength of input signal, and it should be in the frequency range of mixed circuit component 206 designs.
Though this is a preferred embodiment, other embodiments also are possible, and wherein the phase shift between the output is that 90 another odd-multiple of spending are as 270 degree.But this will cause the minimizing of bandwidth.
