Definitions
- the invention relates to determining the resonant frequency of Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) resonators.
- SAW Surface Acoustic Wave
- SAW resonators may be used in the measurement of many physical or chemical properties including pressure, temperature, tensile strain or compressive strain, one particular application being to measure the torque transmitted by a rotating shaft.
- Torque measurement is of particular importance in an internal combustion engine as in order to manage the operation of an internal combustion engine in an effective and environmentally efficient manner, the engine management unit requires accurate information from sensors mounted on the drive shaft providing information relating to torque transmitted by the drive shaft.
- a pair of SAW resonators are mounted on a shaft such that when the shaft is rotated and transmitting torque one of the said SAW resonators is under tensile strain and the other SAW resonator is under compressive strain.
- SAW resonators exhibit variation in their resonant frequency dependent on applied strain, by measuring the variation in the resonant frequency of each SAW resonator the strain applied to each SAW resonator can be determined and hence the torque transmitted by the shaft can be calculated.
- a torque sensor of this type is disclosed in US 5,585,571.
- the determination of the resonant frequency involves driving the SAW resonator at a frequency close to its relaxed natural frequency, converting the SAW response signal to low frequency signals with RF receiver circuitry (low frequency signal is also called"down-converted signal), sampling the resultant outputs or down-converted signals from the RF receiver and then calculating the actual frequency of the output signals.
- the output signals In order to avoid aliasing problems when determining the frequency of the output signals, the output signals must be sampled for a minimum time period with a sampling rate of at least double the frequency of resonation. The frequency of the sampled signals are compared with a series of ideal signals calculated for a range of frequencies around the expected figure to determine the 'best fit and thereby determine the actual SAW resonant frequency.
- a method suitable for determining the resonant frequency of an SAW resonator comprising the following steps: driving the SAW resonator with an impulse RF signal; detecting the resultant output signal of the SAW resonator; mixing said output signal with a first RF
- IF intermediate frequency
- This method thus provides a method of determining the resonant frequency of an SAW resonator that requires less sampling of the output of the SAW resonator to determine its resonant frequency than known methods. This thereby allows more accurate results to be produced using slower and less costly analogue to digital conversion equipment and using slower and less costly digital processing circuitry (such as a microcontroller) than is required by known methods.
- the first and second vectors are complex vectors, calculated by using the first interface signal to provide the real component of said vector and the second interface signal to provide the imaginary component of said vector. This thus allows the complex phase angle of said vector to be calculated.
- the real and imaginary components of said first and second vectors may be determined from the interface signals by: generating a pair of differential signals from each interface signal; then using a differential amplifier to determine the difference between said pair of differential signals, thus outputting a component signal; and then sampling said component signals. Generating a pair of differential signals in this manner reduces analogue noise.
- the method initially determines the frequency difference between the first and second interface signals and the reference frequency by comparing the recorded phase angle between the first and second vectors with a calculated phase angle difference for a reference frequency. By subsequently adding or subtracting this frequency difference from the sum of first RF signal frequency, the second RF signal frequency and the reference frequency, the actual resonant frequency of the SAW resonator is determined.
- the calculated phase angle difference varies with variations in frequency of the first, second and third RF signals, and the reference signal.
- phase angle differences for a plurality of different reference frequencies may be stored in a look up table.
- the resonant frequency of the SAW resonator may thus be calculated by selecting the closest stored phase angle difference to the measured phase angle difference for use as a reference frequency.
- the impulse signal is a high frequency RF signal used to drive the
- SAW resonator for a limited period. Preferably, this period is around 3-1 O ⁇ s.
- a series of said impulse signals may be applied consecutively.
- the impulse signal may be amplified to increase its driving effect.
- the output signal may be buffered before being mixed with said first RF signal.
- the impulse signal has a frequency that is close to the expected value of the resonant frequency.
- the sum of said first frequency, the second frequency and the reference frequency is close to the expected value of the resonant frequency.
- the frequency of third RF signal is preferably the same as the frequency of second RF signal, and preferably has phase shift of 90 degrees relative to the second signal. This is so the total expected phase change between the first and second vectors over time, minus the phase change of the reference signal, is minimised thereby allowing greater accuracy of measurement.
- the frequency of the first RF signal is HMHz lower than the frequency of the impulse signals
- the frequency of the second and third signals is 10 MHz
- the frequency of the reference signal is 1 MHz.
- the sampling to provide the first vector takes place shortly
- the time interval between sampling the first and second interface signals to determine the components of the first vector and sampling the first and second interface signals to determine the components of the second vector is chosen so that the maximum expected variation in resonant frequency of the SAW resonator will not introduce the possibility of false results due to aliasing.
- the method may include the further steps of sampling the said interface signals on one or more additional occasions, each separated by said predetermined time interval, so that a composite estimate of the phase angle between said first and second vectors can be calculated.
- the composite estimate may be calculated by either using the plurality of samples to provide average values for said first and second vectors and thus allow the measurement of a phase angle between said average vectors or may be calculated by providing independently a plurality of pairs of first and second vectors, measuring the phase angle between each pair of vectors and taking the average of the plurality of phase angles.
- the components of a plurality of vectors or a plurality of pairs of vectors resulting from samples at different times may be used to calculate a plurality of phase angles and least mean squares fitting may then be used to determine a best estimate of the phase angle.
- the best estimate may be calculated by performing a least mean squares calculation.
- the method may also include the further steps of sampling the interface signals at the end of the decay, when the signal strength (vector amplitude) is very low compared with the initial strength. Such sampled values can be used to correct the earlier sampled vectors in case a DC offset (possibly caused by the RF circuitry) is present in the signal outputs.
- the measurement of the resonant frequency may take place periodically.
- the method may be used to determine the change in resonant frequency of SAW resonators used in devices for sensing pressure, temperature, tensile strain or compressive strain, torque or any other suitable physical property.
- variable reference frequency For greater dynamic range, a variable reference frequency may be selected, where the new reference frequency is the sum of the old reference frequency and the last calculated difference frequency. This method of relative tracking of SAW frequency reduces the possibility of false phase difference results.
- the mixing of the output signal with the said first RF signal is omitted, thereby not using an intermediate frequency (IF).
- the output SAW signal is thus directly mixed with the said second RF signal and the said third RF signal by the RF circuitry.
- the frequency of said second RF signal and said third RF signal is close to the expected resonant SAW frequency.
- the frequency of the said second RF signal is the same as the frequency of the RF impulse signal, and hence the frequency of the said third RF signal is the same as the frequency of the said second RF signal, but the phase of the said third RF signal is 90 degrees shifted with respect to the phase of the said second RF signal.
- the calculation of the sensor output is based not on the determined SAW frequency value, but on the initial phase difference value between the two vector samples; or on the further phase difference value between the two vector samples when taking into account the phase difference from the reference frequency; or on the frequency difference calculated from the phase angle difference.
- the method may include the additional step of monitoring the amplitude as well as the phase angle of the vector samples to detect the presence of a ripple in the monitored amplitudes.
- a ripple may be caused by parasitic intermodulations or distortions potentially caused by beats frequencies, the sampling process, the driving process or other processes.
