Specific embodiment
The present invention can be divided into two parts from technological layer: the phase adjustment of fixed ampllitude power output and use envelope detection are fed back Network.Wherein the former mainly elaborate to control by fast phase the dynamic stability process for realizing signal output level and it is theoretical according to According to;The latter elaborates that the feedback of signal is not general feedback system, the envelop feature extraction of signal must be carried out, for eliminating phase Position noise bring interference.
(1) the phase adjustment theory analysis of fixed ampllitude power output
Power combing Terahertz fixed ampllitude method based on phase adjustment, realization process are mainly following two key mistake Journey: by adjusting two paths of signals phase difference being 90 °, (state of other non-zero phase differences can also be with, but the case where 90 ° of phase differences Most preferably, adjusting range is big) so that combined coefficient is 50%;Minimum detection is able to satisfy by the acquisition of directional couple device to require Fraction power level, feed back to phase-adjusting circuit as reference signal after integral, specific implementation is as shown in Figure 1.
The theory for being combined power output is adjusted using phase mismatch degree and simulation result is as follows:
If two paths of signals is respectively S1=A1[cos (ω t)+jsin (ω t)], S2=A2[cos (ω t)+jsin (ω t)], Wherein, S1And S2For the two paths of signals of hypothesis, A1And A2The amplitude for the two paths of signals respectively assumed, ω are the angular frequency of signal. If the phase angle of two paths of signals is φ, the synthesis power expression of the two paths of signals are as follows:
Psum=| S1+S2|2=A1 2+A2 2+2A1A2cosφ (1)
And there is maximum synthesis power when the phase difference of two paths of signals is 0:
Pmax_sum=| S1+S2|2=A1 2+A2 2+2A1A2 (2)
In addition, always there is a real number a that can make A1=aA2(a ∈ R) is set up, then combined coefficient can indicate are as follows:
It is approximately equal by the amplitude for adjusting two paths of signals so that a ≈ 1, then (3) formula can abbreviation be (4) formula,
Wherein η is power combining efficiency, phase angle of the φ between two paths of signals, the curved line relation of the two as shown in Fig. 2, Wherein abscissa is the phase included angle of two paths of signals, and ordinate is combined coefficient η.In the present invention, the first of two paths of signals is set Beginning phase difference is 90 °, and adjusting process is fine tuning, therefore the phase difference of two paths of signals can be all around about 90 ° fine motions, then (4) formula can be approximately:
Wherein Δ φ is the adjusting offset variable quantity of two paths of signals, and the approximation of this equation can also be obtained from Fig. 2, two When road signal included angle is near 90 °, combined coefficient curve approximation is straight line.
To be combined signal as output signal in the present invention, therefore the power level of output signal is Pout=η Pmax_sum= η(A1+A2)2, by (5) Shi Ke get:
It, can be by the phase of two paths of signals by (6) formula it is found that output power caused by being changed by amplitude in two paths of signals changes Collocation degree adjusts to be made up, and it is constant for finally making output power.
Fig. 3 is wherein to be superimposed amplitude white noise on signal all the way in the two paths of signals of design, is calculated by matlab The data (the intensive solid line of Fig. 3 black) of signal normalization after the synthesis that signal after to synthesis adds noiseless.By to defeated The amplitude acquisition of signal out is calculated using (6) formula after compensating dynamic adjustment to phase, and output signal is by noiseless addition After synthesis after signal normalization data as shown in white narrowband of the Fig. 3 along horizontal axis.The setting feedback control loop speed of response is width herein 90% calculating of degree flashing rate, it is seen that its Adjustment precision can promote 30dB.
(2) theory analysis of envelope detection feedback network is used
Theory analysis using envelope detection feedback network is as follows:
20lgN is deferred in the terahertz signal that frequency multiplication generates, deterioration of mutually making an uproar, and wherein N is frequency multiplication number.Pass through microwave multiple-frequency Frequency to the technological means of Terahertz, generation is higher, and N is bigger, and then deterioration of mutually making an uproar is more serious, this is that low frequency signal frequency multiplication produces The intrinsic problem of raw terahertz signal.And mutually make an uproar and be embodied in phase jitter in the time domain, it is shown as in combining power output Output level is quivered (jitter), since the mathematic expectaion of random phase fluctuation amplitude is 0, is generally pressed to its measurement index It is calculated according to root-mean-square value, such as (7) formula:
Wherein PPNFor power spectrum single-side belt integrated value of mutually making an uproar, unit dB.The finger of mutually making an uproar in test source in the embodiment of the present invention It is designated as -51.3dBc@1KHz, conversion jitter root-mean-square value is 0.086 (4.9 °), synthesizes power output at this time and quivers maximum value And the difference of minimum value is 8.6%, therefore in order to enable phase adaptation degree adjustment process can be effectively to the slow drift of power output Shifting is corrected, it is necessary to which the flashing of the power caused by jitter is handled, and the side for using envelope detection is proposed in the present invention Method filters disturbance of the jitter to feedback signal.
It is noted that not influencing the defeated of signal in prolonged accumulation since the mathematic expectaion of jitter is 0 Power level index out, and the quick variation of jitter, so that can not be perceived in actual detection, therefore the method for the present invention is not right The flashing of power level caused by jitter is fed back, and is not influenced the output of fixed ampllitude signal not only, instead amplitude was adjusted Journey is more targeted.

As shown in Figure 1, fundamental frequency signal is connected with power divider, the power distribution (distribution ratio of fundamental frequency signal is realized Example is unlimited, and optimal allocation mode is constant amplitude distribution), form multichannel fundamental frequency branch signal.If being here formed as the road R branch signal, then It is believed that the road R-1 signal is synthesized according to the power combing mode of highest combined coefficient, phase is not carried out according to feedback to it Position control, but phase controlling is only carried out all the way to remaining, therefore the road R branch signal herein still can be treated as two-way Signal processing.
(2) each tributary signal feed-in phaselocked loop for exporting power divider
As shown in Figure 1, the output signal of power divider is directly connected with corresponding phaselocked loop, only to one of them Branch carries out phase dynamic regulation.
Signal optimum phase difference after the output of two-way frequency multiplication is 90 °, therefore when frequency multiplication number is N, the branch being adjusted Phase preset is 90 °/N at the phase difference of another way.Frequency multiplication number is 15 in this example, therefore the phase difference of controlled branch is preset It is 6 °.
(3) the output signal feed-in frequency multiplier of phaselocked loop
By the output signal feed-in frequency multiplier of phaselocked loop.In the embodiment of the present invention, frequency multiplier is 15 frequencys multiplication namely N is 15, Therefore the phase difference variable of the terahertz signal of output is 6 ° × 15=90 °.
(4) the terahertz signal power combing for exporting frequency multiplier
The terahertz signal access power synthesizer that frequency multiplier is exported, is allowed to complete power combing.
(5) feedback signal is negated
The output signal of power combiner is taken by directional coupler can drive wave detector minimum power (herein with Feedback link receiving sensor sensitivity is related, just drives the power of sensor, excessively high Feedback of Power delivery efficiency Necessarily decline, too low input pickup is not comparatively laborious in linear zone correction work), for feeding back.In the embodiment of the present invention The 1 ‰ of the number of winning the confidence.Remaining most signal is for exporting.
(6) envelope detection is carried out to feedback signal
Envelope detection is carried out to the feedback signal that directional coupler takes out, and passes through low-pass filter filter high-frequency feature, To extract amplitude envelops feature, as terahertz signal output power levels characteristic signal.
(7) feedback driving phaselocked loop completes phase real time correction
The level character signal amplitude amount that step (6) are generated is calculated by (6) formula to phaselocked loop as parameter Corrected parameter Δ φ, and phaselocked loop is written and carries out phase adjustment, complete the dynamic process of Terahertz fixed ampllitude.
The content that description in the present invention is not described in detail belongs to the well-known technique of those skilled in the art.
