技术领域
本公开实施例涉及电子技术领域,尤其涉及一种射频装置及终端设备。
背景技术
相关技术中的射频架构中,为确保发射功率的稳定性,需要对发射功率做监测,以实现发射功率实时可控,从而需要引入了一个定向耦合器串接于发射(Transmit,TX)和主集接收(Primary Receive,PRX)通路中,由此对发射和主集接收通路都引入了一个***损耗,这个***损耗也就是定向耦合器带来的损耗,其一般在0.3dB左右。定向耦合器的耦合系数一般在25dB左右,也即在发射功率为23dBm时,定向耦合器耦合并发送到射频收发器用以功率检测的信号幅度大约在-2dBm左右。
因此,为了使得天线口能得到固定的功率,比如是23dBm,那么就需要送到定向耦合器的功率是23+0.3=23.3dBm,需要射频功率放大器多输出0.3dBm的功率,由此功率放大器消耗的电流大约会增加15mA(通常情况下,功率放大器的输出功率增加1dB,功率放大器的消耗电流增加50mA),从而将影响到终端设备的电池的续航时间,进而在一定程度上影响用户体验,并且,由于定向耦合器的***损耗的引入,对主集接收的接收灵敏度也会有0.3dB左右的恶化,影响射频接收性能。
由上述内容可知,相关技术中的射频架构为确保发射功率的稳定性,将引入较大插损,增加发射和主集接收通路中的器件功率损耗,并且会对射频接收性能造成影响。

第三方面,本公开实施例提供一种终端设备,包括上述第一方面的实施例提供的射频装置。
第四方面,本公开实施例提供一种终端设备,包括上述第二方面的实施 例提供的射频装置。
