参见图1,本发明提供的完全射频采样DAC多频发射机的工作原理包括:对于发射部分,由RFDAC模块完成对来自数字信号处理模块的发射信号数模转换后直接输出***所需的射频信号,根据***需求确定是否需要合路器将多个RFDAC输出的信号合路,然后将所需的射频信号提供给宽带放大器进行信号功率放大(可以省略)、通过滤波器对其它采样带内的镜频信号进行有效抑制,再经过第一增益调整模块调整发射功率,最后经过PA完成信号的最终放大后再由滤波器/双工器输出给天线口发射。其中,发射信号的一部分信号可以通过PA耦合到反馈链路,以实现功率检测以及数字预失真等处理。对于反馈部分,首先由***确定是否需要通道选择模块选择不同发射通道的PA耦合信号(这里,如果发射通道只有一个,通道选择模块可以省略),然后再经过第二增益调整模块和频段处理模块分别对信号功率和信号质量进行处理,保证所采集信号的真实性;经处理后的射频信号直接提供给RFADC模块进行模数转换后再输出给数字信号处理模块做下一步的数字信号处理。
相应地,本发明实施例中图1所示的完全射频采样DAC多频发射机实现信号处理的方法包括:
对于发射部分,对经过数字信号处理的发射信号进行数模转换后获取所需的射频信号;对获得的射频信号进行滤波处理并调整发射功率;对处理后的信号进行宽带功率放大后输出给天线发射,同时耦合一部分发射通道的射频信号到反馈通道;
对于反馈部分,对来自发射通道耦合的信号进行信号功率和信号质量处理;对经处理后的射频信号进行模数转换后进行数字信号处理。
当获取所需的射频信号包括两个以上时,获取所需的射频信号之后,对所需的射频信号进行滤波处理并调整发射功率之前,还包括:对获得的所需的射频信号进行信号合路处理。
以上图1描述的发射机为完全射频采样DAC多频发射机,图2为本发明发射机的第二实施例的组成架构示意图,对于非完全射频采样DAC多频发射机,由于非完全射频采样DAC输出的射频信号存在本振泄露和调制镜像,如图2所示,还包括:
在发射通道上的小信号耦合模块,设置为对射频信号耦合一部分射频小信号参与实时校准后再输出给滤波模块;以及,

参见图2,本发明实施例提供的非完全射频采样DAC多频发射机的工作原理与图1所示的完全射频采样DAC多频发射机的区别在于:增加了实时校准电路。非完全射频采样DAC输出的射频信号(即RFDAC模块输出的射频信号或合路器输出的射频信号)由于存在本振泄露和调制镜像,在RFDAC模块的输出处由一个小信号耦合模块直接耦合一部分信号到小信号通道选择模块,然后反馈通道的RFADC模块通过小信号通道选择采集校准信号。这样,本发明提供的非完全射频采样DAC多频发射机的反馈通道承担了功率检测、驻波检测、实时校准功能和数字预失真数据采集等功能需求,由小信号通道选择模块实现对多个发射通道进行分时处理。
相应地,本发明实施例中的图2所示的非完全射频采样DAC多频发射机实现信号处理的方法包括:
对于发射部分,对经过数字信号处理的发射信号进行数模转换后获取所需的射频信号;对发射通道耦合一部分射频小信号参与实时校准;对获得的射频信号进行滤波处理并调整发射功率;对处理后的信号进行宽带功率放大后输出给天线发射,同时耦合一部分信号到反馈通道;
对于反馈部分,对来自发射通道耦合的信号进行信号功率和信号质量处理;完成对发射通道耦合的射频小信号进行实时校准;对经处理后的射频信号进行模数转换后进行数字信号处理。
当获取所需的射频信号包括两个以上时,获取所需的射频信号之后,对所需的射频信号进行滤波处理并调整发射功率之前,还包括:对获得的所需的射频信号进行信号合路处理。
其中,对耦合的射频小信号进行实时校准包括:
发射机在上电初始化后,关闭发射机中的PA,对耦合的射频小信号的泄露信号和调制镜像信号进行粗校准,如果连续预设次数次检测到的泄露信号电平小于预先设置的安全门限值后打开PA;
发射机中的PA正常发送业务数据,按照预先设置的短周期对发射通道耦合的射频信号进行前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集,进行预先设置的次数阈值N个周期后,停止功率检测和预失真数据采集;对发射通道耦合的射频小信号的本振泄露和调制镜像进行实时校准,实时校准完成
后返回对所述发射通道耦合的射频信号的前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集,直至发射机停止工作。
其中,发射通道包括一个以上。
当发射通道包括两个以上时,对发射通道耦合的射频信号进行前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集包括:分时选择不同的发射通道以对选出的发射通道耦合的射频信号进行前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集;以及,
对发射通道耦合的射频小信号的本振泄露和调制镜像进行实时校准包括:分时选择同步的发射通道以对选出发射通道耦合的射频小信号的本振泄露和调制镜像进行实时校准。
从本发明提供的基于射频AD/DA的发射机架构对于实现多频段发射机有明显的优势:一方面,由于链路采用射频AD/DA器件将数字信号直接转换成所需要的射频信号,通道带宽较宽,一个通道可以支持多个频段,也就是说单通道可以支持多频段同时发射;另一方面,由于完全射频采样DAC架构通过数字部分完成I/Q信号的调制处理,省去了本振器件、中频滤波器以及IQ调制器和解调器,而非完全射频采样DAC架构虽然会产生本振和镜像信号,但只需要在完全射频采样DAC架构的基础上增加实时校准架构,仍然使链路器件大大减少,也就是说模拟链路得以简化。而且,射频DAC实现数字变频,只需要提供时钟参考信号即可,时钟链路得到了简化。再者,本发明基于射频AD/DA的发射机架构硬件链路器件的减少,带来的直接优势还有产品小型化和产品成本的降低。
以上即为射频AD/DA多频段发射机的硬件架构说明。下面针对非完全射频采样DAC单通道多频发射机的架构阐述实时校准的具体实现。对耦合的射频小信号进行实时校准大致包括:发射机在上电初始化后,关闭PA,对耦合的射频小信号的泄露信号和调制镜像信号进行粗校准,如果连续预设次数次检测到的泄露信号电平小于预先设置的安全门限值后打开PA;功放打开后正常发送业务数据,按照预先设置的短周期分时对PA耦合的射频信号进行前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集,进行预先设置的次数阈值N个周期后,停止功率检测和预失真数据采集,同时,对耦合的射频
小信号的本振泄露和调制镜像进行实时校准,校准完成后反复循环直至发射机停止工作。具体地:
反馈通道承担着功率检测和预失真数据采集的功能,实时校准也占用反馈通道,几种功能的实现需要实施分时采集方案。分时方案由小信号通道选择模块来实现,具体包括:为了避免本振泄露对功放的损坏,如步骤300~步骤305所示,发射机在上电初始化后,先关闭功放即PA,小信号通道选择模块接收来自小信号耦合模块的信号,在经RFADC模块进行模数转换后输出给数字信号处理模块,以对泄露信号和调制镜像信号进行粗校准,待校准后如果连续预设次数次如3次检测到的泄露信号电平小于预先设置的安全门限值后再打开功放即PA,这个过程在发射机上电后只需要执行一次即可。上电后的实时校准是按照一定的时间周期进行的,如步骤306~步骤309所示,功放打开后正常发送业务数据,小信号通道选择模块接收来自频段处理模块的信号,在经RFADC模块进行模数转换后输出给数字信号处理模块,反馈通道按照预先设置的短周期分时进行前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集,进行预先设置的次数阈值N个周期后,停止功率检测和预失真数据采集,同时,小信号通道选择模块接收来自小信号耦合模块的信号,在经RFADC模块进行模数转换后输出给数字信号处理模块,并选择实时校准通道,以完成一次对本振泄露和调制镜像的实时校准,校准完成后,小信号通道选择模块返回反馈通道,再进行上述N个周期的功率检测和预失真数据采集,如此反复循环,整个单通道实施校准过程如图3所示。
本发明实施例还提供了一种计算机可读存储介质,存储有计算机可执行指令,所述计算机可执行指令用于执行上述任一发射机及实现信号处理的方法。
下面对本发明提供的发射机的实际应用进行详细介绍。
图4为本发明发射机应用的第一实施例的架构示意图,如图4所示,在第一实施例中展现了一种F+A+D完全射频采样单通道三频发射机的实现方式,该F+A+D完全射频采样单通道三频发射机采用的是本发明提供的完全射频采样DAC架构。如图4所示,假设F、A、D分别表示三个非连续频段如1.9G、2.0G及2.6G,F+A+D三频信号同时从一个DAC输出口发出,后
面不需要合路器模块,F+A+D三频信号经过放大、低通滤波以及可变增益放大器增益调整后输入PA,再通过滤波器送到天线口发射出去。其中一部分信号经PA,输入到反馈链路的可变增益放大器完成功率调整,最后经过带通滤波器处理后输入RFADC模块以完成模数转换后再进行数字信号处理。
图5为本发明发射机应用的第二实施例的架构示意图,如图5所示,第二实施例中展示了一种1.8G+2.1G非完全射频采样双通道双频发射机的实现方式,该1.8G+2.1G非完全射频采样双通道双频发射机采用的是本发明提供的非完全射频采样DAC架构。如图5所示,双路发射通道共用一路反馈通道,两路发射通道完全一致,通过开关模块1分时对两个发射通道进行功率检测和预失真数据采集。其中,发射通道的可变增益放大器可以选用双路器件,也可以采用如图5所示的两个单路器件实现。
图6为本发明基于图5所示的架构的双通道实时校准的流程示意图,其中,两路发射通道即发射通道0和发射通道1通过时分方式共用一路反馈通道,相应的控制通过开关模块1或开关模块0来实现时分共用,如图6所示,为了描述方便,本实施例中假设每个发射通道中仅包括一个RFDAC模块,双通道实时校准的过程具体包括:
首先,如步骤600~步骤608所示,发射机在上电初始化后,先将两路功放模块即PA0和PA1都关闭,对本振泄露和调制镜像进行粗校准:先通过小信号通道选择模块即开关模块0选择发射通道0送来的信号,再经RFADC到数字信号处理模块,完成发射通道0的粗校准;待发射通道0完成粗校准后,小信号通道选择模块即开关模块0再选择发射通道1的信号,再经RFADC到数字信号处理模块,完成发射通道1的粗校准,两路发射通道均完成粗校准后同时打开两路功放即PA0和PA1,这个粗校准的过程在上电后仅执行一次即可。
接着,如步骤609~步骤611所示,开关模块0选择接收带通滤波器送来的信号,开关模块1选择PA 0的信号,进行发射通道0的前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集;之后,开关模块1选择PA1的信号,进行发射通道1的前向功率检测、反向功率检测和预失真数据采集。如果检测总时间小于次数阈值N倍的单通道检测周期,返回继续检测;如果检测总时间
等于次数阈值N倍的单通道检测周期,进入后续步骤;
然后,如步骤612~步骤613所示,开关模块0选择接收来自耦合器0的信号,对发射通道0进行本振泄露和调制镜像的一次实时校准,直到本振泄露和调制镜像的信号功率小于预先设置的安全门限值,结束本次校准;之后,开关模块0选择接收来自耦合器1的信号,对发射通道1进行本振泄露和调制镜像的一次实时校准,直到本振泄露和调制镜像的信号功率小于预先设置的安全门限值,结束本次校准;返回步骤609,如此反复循环,直至发射机停止正常工作如断电等。
本实施例中,实时校准、功率检测和预失真数据采集分时进行。实时校准周期相对较长,是功率检测和预失真采数周期的N倍,两路检测周期和校准周期一致。
以上所述,仅为本发明的较佳实例而已,并非用于限定本发明的保护范围。凡在本发明的精神和原则之内,所做的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
本发明实施例提出的发射机及其实现信号处理的方法,至少包括:RFDAC模块、RFADC模块、滤波模块、第一增益调整模块和第二增益调整模块、频段处理模块、多频功率放大器(PA)、滤波器/双工器以及数字信号处理模块。一方面,由于链路采用射频AD/DA器件将数字信号直接转换成所需要的射频信号,实现了单通道支持多频段同时发射;另一方面,由于采用射频采样DAC架构,大大简化了模拟链路。而且,射频DAC实现数字变频,只需要提供时钟参考信号即可,时钟链路也得到了简化,从而在产品小型化设计和产品成本的降低方面具有更大优势。
