Description

一种基于前馈技术的线性功率放大方法和功率放大器装置A linear power amplification method and power amplifier device based on feedforward technology

技术领域:Technical field:

本发明属于移动通信领域,特别是涉及一种基于前馈技术的线性功率放大方法和功率放大器装置。The invention belongs to the field of mobile communication, in particular to a linear power amplification method and power amplifier device based on feedforward technology.

背景技术:Background technique:

随着现代移动通信技术的不断发展,对射频功率放大器的线性度要求急剧提高,基于功率合成技术的独立功放和基于功率回退技术的高功放已完全无法满足移动通信基站射频子系统的性能、功耗、成本等因数的综合需求。由于甲乙类功率放大器直流转换效率比纯甲类功放管高出许多,而且线性指标仍比较好,故目前业内主要采用基于LDMOS(横向扩展金属氧化半导体)技术的甲乙类功率放大器辅助以线性化手段实现大功率线性功率放大器,现在广泛采用的线性化手段包括预失真线性法和前馈线性法。With the continuous development of modern mobile communication technology, the linearity requirements for RF power amplifiers have increased sharply. Independent power amplifiers based on power combining technology and high power amplifiers based on power fallback technology have completely failed to meet the performance of mobile communication base station RF subsystems. The comprehensive demand of power consumption, cost and other factors. Because the DC conversion efficiency of Class A and B power amplifiers is much higher than that of pure Class A power amplifier tubes, and the linearity index is still relatively good, so the industry mainly uses Class A and B power amplifiers based on LDMOS (Lateral Expansion Metal Oxide Semiconductor) technology to assist in linearization. To realize high-power linear power amplifiers, the widely used linearization methods include predistortion linear method and feedforward linear method.

预失真线性化方法主要是在功率放大器之前插入预失真部件,造成功率放大器的输入信号已经预先失真崎变,而其失真特性正好与功放器件非线性性能相反,从而达到在系统输出端出现一个除幅度增加许多外,其他特性与输入信号基本相同的线性功率放大效果。为保证一定的线性化带宽,需要外加监控电路,结合预失真部件,仿真功率放大器的AM-AM(调幅-调幅)和AM-PM(调幅-调相)的非线性特征。但是,精确仿真功放管在各种环境温度、馈电电压、工作频率、功率电平等条件下的AM-AM、AM-PM特性,是非常困难的,所以,实现的线性化指标、自适应工作带宽不甚理想。因此,目前此类线性功率放大器仍处于实验室和小批量生产阶段,或者作为前馈式线性功率放大器的辅助实现手段。The pre-distortion linearization method is mainly to insert a pre-distortion component before the power amplifier, which causes the input signal of the power amplifier to be pre-distorted and changed, and its distortion characteristics are just opposite to the nonlinear performance of the power amplifier device, so as to achieve an elimination at the output of the system. Except that the amplitude increases a lot, other characteristics are basically the same as the linear power amplification effect of the input signal. In order to ensure a certain linearization bandwidth, an external monitoring circuit is required, combined with pre-distortion components, to simulate the nonlinear characteristics of AM-AM (amplitude modulation-amplitude modulation) and AM-PM (amplitude modulation-phase modulation) of the power amplifier. However, it is very difficult to accurately simulate the AM-AM and AM-PM characteristics of power amplifier tubes under various conditions such as ambient temperature, feed voltage, operating frequency, and power level. Therefore, the realized linearization index and adaptive work Bandwidth is less than ideal. Therefore, this type of linear power amplifier is still in the laboratory and small batch production stage, or as an auxiliary means of realization of the feedforward linear power amplifier.

前馈线性化方法是将功率放大器产生的失真信号分离出来,再进行增益、相位、延时的匹配调整,加至功率放大器输出端,对消掉功放输出信号中的失真分量,以获得最大的线性化指标。这种方法受环境温度、工作电压等因数影响较小,线性化指标较高,工作带宽较宽。而且由于技术成熟,应用范围很广。The feed-forward linearization method is to separate the distorted signal generated by the power amplifier, then adjust the gain, phase and delay matching, and add it to the output of the power amplifier to eliminate the distortion component in the output signal of the power amplifier to obtain the maximum Linearization index. This method is less affected by factors such as ambient temperature and operating voltage, has a higher linearization index, and has a wider operating bandwidth. And because the technology is mature, the application range is very wide.

目前的前馈式线性功率放大器都至少包括两个信号对消环路:主环和误差环。主环对消消除主功放输出取样信号中的载频成分,获得只包含主功放非线性失真产物的误差信号;误差环则将误差信号放大调整至与主功放输出信号中非线性失真信号幅度相等的电平,然后进行反相对消,消除掉主功放输出信号中的失真分量。主环和误差环虽然独立工作,但由于它们相互切交,主环设计状态直接影响误差环设计结果,特别是主功放的增益设置直接决定误差放大器的实现,一个一般增益要求的主功率放大器将造成非常高的误差放大器增益需求,因此很难单模块实现误差放大器。若使用多个放大电路模块级连实现误差放大器,不仅结构复杂,系统设计难度加大,硬件成本增加,而且多级电路级连造成很大延时,相应地误差环延时线延时要求增加,延时线长度加大,同等条件下,插入损耗提高。由于该延时线串接在功放输出通道中,延时线插入损耗直接消耗系统输出功率。为降低延时线插入损耗,必须选用性能更加优良(单位长度插入损耗更小)的电缆(或延时器件),这将进一步提高系统实现难度和成本。但是,由于主功放是线性功率放大器系统增益的直接实现者,一般无法将其增益设置过低。目前,还没有检索到根本解决此类问题的相关技术专利和资料文献。Current feed-forward linear power amplifiers all include at least two signal cancellation loops: a main loop and an error loop. The main loop cancels and eliminates the carrier frequency component in the output sampling signal of the main power amplifier, and obtains an error signal containing only the nonlinear distortion products of the main power amplifier; the error loop amplifies and adjusts the error signal to be equal to the amplitude of the nonlinear distortion signal in the output signal of the main power amplifier level, and then reverse phase cancellation to eliminate the distortion component in the output signal of the main power amplifier. Although the main loop and the error loop work independently, because they intersect with each other, the design status of the main loop directly affects the design result of the error loop, especially the gain setting of the main power amplifier directly determines the realization of the error amplifier. A main power amplifier with general gain requirements will This results in a very high error amplifier gain requirement, making it difficult to implement the error amplifier in a single block. If multiple amplifying circuit modules are cascaded to realize the error amplifier, not only the structure is complex, the system design is more difficult, the hardware cost increases, but also the multi-level circuit cascading causes a large delay, and the delay requirement of the error loop delay line increases accordingly. , the length of the delay line increases, and under the same conditions, the insertion loss increases. Since the delay line is connected in series to the output channel of the power amplifier, the insertion loss of the delay line directly consumes the output power of the system. In order to reduce the insertion loss of the delay line, cables (or delay devices) with better performance (lower insertion loss per unit length) must be selected, which will further increase the difficulty and cost of system implementation. However, since the main power amplifier is the direct implementer of the gain of the linear power amplifier system, it is generally impossible to set its gain too low. At present, no relevant technology patents and literatures that fundamentally solve this problem have been retrieved.

工作载频信号输入信道检测模块后,送至耦合器A,直通信号进入主功放模块,由主功放模块进行功率放大;耦合信号则通过下变频混频器、中频滤波器、检波器送入监控器,由监控器将检测到的载频信道信息馈给载波消除模块的数字滤波器,供其设定数字滤波参数;主功放模块输出放大后的功率信号进入载波消除模块后,经耦合器B取样,再通过下变频混频器、ADC、数字滤波器、DAC、上变频混频器处理消除掉其中的载频工作信号,获得仅反映主功放非线性失真信息的误差信号并送入失真消除模块;在失真消除模块中,误差信号通过电调衰减器、电调移相器进行增益、相位调整,再经过误差放大器,由耦合器C耦合进入主通道,与载波消除模块中耦合器B的直通信号经过失真消除模块的延时线延时后传来的主功放输出信号进行对消,消除掉其中的非线性失真成分,得到高线性的大功率工作载频信号输出。After the working carrier frequency signal is input to the channel detection module, it is sent to the coupler A, and the through signal enters the main power amplifier module, and the power is amplified by the main power amplifier module; the coupled signal is sent to the monitoring through the down-conversion mixer, intermediate frequency filter and detector The monitor feeds the detected carrier frequency channel information to the digital filter of the carrier cancellation module for setting digital filter parameters; the amplified power signal output by the main power amplifier module enters the carrier cancellation module and passes through the coupler B Sampling, and then through the down-conversion mixer, ADC, digital filter, DAC, and up-conversion mixer to process and eliminate the carrier frequency working signal, and obtain the error signal that only reflects the nonlinear distortion information of the main power amplifier and send it to the distortion elimination module; in the distortion elimination module, the error signal is adjusted for gain and phase through the ESC attenuator and the ESC phase shifter, then passes through the error amplifier, is coupled into the main channel by the coupler C, and is connected with the coupler B in the carrier elimination module After the direct signal is delayed by the delay line of the distortion elimination module, the output signal of the main power amplifier is cancelled, and the nonlinear distortion component is eliminated, and a highly linear high-power working carrier frequency signal output is obtained.

本发明提供的基于前馈技术的线性功率放大器实现方法,包括如下步骤:The linear power amplifier implementation method based on feedforward technology provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

步骤一:判断系统工作载频所处信道号;Step 1: Determine the channel number of the system operating carrier frequency;

步骤二:依据工作载频所处信道判别结果设置数字滤波器;Step 2: Set the digital filter according to the discrimination result of the channel where the working carrier frequency is located;

步骤三:建立载波消除电路;Step 3: Establish a carrier cancellation circuit;

步骤四:建立失真信号消除电路。Step 4: Establish a distorted signal elimination circuit.

所述的步骤一中判断系统工作载频所处信道号进一步包括如下过程:Judging the channel number where the system operating carrier frequency is located in the step 1 further includes the following process:

首先,耦合器A取样部分输入信号功率进入混频器A,通过混频器A的下变频混频,将射频信号降至中频,然后由带宽正好为一个通信信道宽度的中频带通滤波器滤波,再经过检波器得到直流电压送入监控器;First, coupler A samples part of the input signal power and enters mixer A, through the down-conversion and mixing of mixer A, the radio frequency signal is reduced to intermediate frequency, and then filtered by an intermediate frequency bandpass filter whose bandwidth is exactly the width of a communication channel , and then get the DC voltage through the detector and send it to the monitor;

其次,监控器控制频率合成器的输出频率以相同于通信系统标准信道间隔的频率步进由低向高或由高向低扫描即信道扫描,并相应检测对应于每个工作信道的信号检波电压;Secondly, the monitor controls the output frequency of the frequency synthesizer to scan from low to high or from high to low at the same frequency step as the standard channel interval of the communication system, that is, channel scanning, and correspondingly detects the signal detection voltage corresponding to each working channel ;

然后,参照一个固定门限,监控器判断每个信道的信号检波电压是否超出门限,超出门限则认为该信道有工作载频信号,否则无,实时判别出系统所有的工作信道号。Then, with reference to a fixed threshold, the monitor judges whether the signal detection voltage of each channel exceeds the threshold. If the threshold exceeds the threshold, it is considered that the channel has a working carrier frequency signal, otherwise it does not, and all the working channel numbers of the system are judged in real time.

所述的步骤二依据工作载频所处信道判别结果设置数字滤波器进一步是指:依据第一步得到的由监控器传来的工作载频信道号,设置DSP(数字信号处理)程序模块入口参数,并由相应程序模块建立具有多窗口陷波器特性的数字滤波算法,使得数字滤波器的陷波“开槽”位置与工作载频信道一一对应,从而可以利用该滤波器在第三步中消除工作载频信号。Described step 2 sets the digital filter according to the discriminated result of the channel where the working carrier frequency is located and further refers to: according to the working carrier frequency channel number transmitted by the monitor that the first step obtains, the DSP (Digital Signal Processing) program module entry is set parameters, and a digital filtering algorithm with multi-window notch filter characteristics is established by the corresponding program module, so that the notch "slot" position of the digital filter corresponds to the working carrier frequency channel one by one, so that the filter can be used in the third Step to eliminate the working carrier frequency signal.

所述的步骤三建立载波消除电路进一步包括如下过程:Described step 3 sets up the carrier cancellation circuit and further includes the following process:

首先,取样主功放输出信号;利用串接于主功放输出通道中的耦合器B取样部分主功放输出功率信号,该信号既包括系统载频信息,也包括由于主功放非线性特性引入的互调失真信息,将此信号送入混频器B;First, sample the output signal of the main power amplifier; use the coupler B connected in series in the output channel of the main power amplifier to sample part of the output power signal of the main power amplifier, which includes both the system carrier frequency information and the intermodulation introduced by the nonlinear characteristics of the main power amplifier Distortion information, send this signal to mixer B;

其次,下变频混频;将主功放输出取样信号与本地振荡器产生的本振信号混频,下变频至较低频率范围;Secondly, down-conversion and frequency mixing; the main power amplifier output sampling signal is mixed with the local oscillator signal generated by the local oscillator, and the frequency is down-converted to a lower frequency range;

再次,模拟/数字转换;将低频模拟信号变换成数字信息,送入数字滤波器;Again, analog/digital conversion; convert low-frequency analog signals into digital information and send them to digital filters;

然后,数字滤波;通过步骤二完成的数字滤波算法,将输入数字滤波器的数字信息滤除对应于载波信号的信息;Then, digital filtering; by the digital filtering algorithm completed in step 2, the digital information input into the digital filter is filtered out the information corresponding to the carrier signal;

再后,数字/模拟转换;将数字滤波器输出数字信号还原成模拟信号;Then, digital/analog conversion; restore the digital signal output by the digital filter to an analog signal;

最后,上变频混频;将还原后的模拟信号与本地振荡器产生的本振信号混频上变频,使低频信号恢复到射频。Finally, up-conversion and frequency mixing; the restored analog signal and the local oscillator signal generated by the local oscillator are mixed and up-converted to restore the low-frequency signal to the radio frequency.

所述的步骤四建立失真信号消除电路进一步包括如下过程:Described step 4 establishes the distorted signal elimination circuit and further includes the following process:

首先,延时;利用固定电缆延时线,将主功放输出的大功率信号延时处理后送至系统输出端;First, delay; use the fixed cable delay line to delay the high-power signal output by the main power amplifier and send it to the system output end;

其次,误差放大;将第三步得到的消除了载频信号的射频信号经过幅度、相位调整及线性放大后也送至系统输出端;Secondly, error amplification; the radio frequency signal obtained in the third step and eliminated the carrier frequency signal is also sent to the system output after amplitude, phase adjustment and linear amplification;

最后,失真消除;利用耦合器C实现主功放输出的大功率信号与消除了载频信号的误差射频信号相减,对消消除掉主功放输出中的失真成分,完成失真信号消除的线性化功能。Finally, the distortion is eliminated; use the coupler C to realize the subtraction of the high-power signal output by the main power amplifier and the error radio frequency signal that has eliminated the carrier frequency signal, cancel the distortion component in the output of the main power amplifier, and complete the linearization function of distorted signal elimination .

具体实施方式:Detailed ways:

图1示出了现有前馈式线性功率放大器的基本框架。输入信号经功分器1等分输出,一路信号送入主功率放大器2进行功率放大,另一路经过延时线2、电Figure 1 shows the basic framework of an existing feedforward linear power amplifier. The input signal is equally divided and output by the power splitter 1, one signal is sent to the main power amplifier 2 for power amplification, and the other signal is passed through the delay line 2, power amplifier

调衰减器1、电调移相器1调节后输入和路器9;主功率放大器2输出的信号经过取样耦合器3取样后,进入和路器9的另一个输入端,与延时支路来的输入信号进行信号对消,消除掉主功放输出取样信号中的输入信号分量,得到功放失真信息的代表信号——误差信号,并经过电调移相器2、电调移相器2送入误差放大器12;放大后的误差信号通过定向耦合器5进入功放输出通道,与经过延时线1延时的主功放输出信号进行信号对消,消除掉主功率放大器输出信号中的失真产物,在功放输出端得到线性度很高的大功率信号。The attenuator 1 and the electric phase shifter 1 are adjusted and then input into the summing circuit 9; after the signal output by the main power amplifier 2 is sampled by the sampling coupler 3, it enters the other input terminal of the summing circuit 9 and is connected with the delay branch The incoming input signal is cancelled, and the input signal component in the output sampling signal of the main power amplifier is eliminated, and the representative signal of the distortion information of the power amplifier—the error signal is obtained, and sent to into the error amplifier 12; the amplified error signal enters the power amplifier output channel through the directional coupler 5, and performs signal cancellation with the main power amplifier output signal delayed by the delay line 1 to eliminate the distortion product in the main power amplifier output signal, A high-power signal with high linearity is obtained at the output of the power amplifier.

由图1可以看出,前馈式线性功率放大器包括两个基本的信号对消环——主环和误差环,各环相互独立完成各自功能:主环消除工作信号,提取失真信息;误差环消除功放输出中的失真分量,达到线性化目标。但是,误差环的设计直接依赖与主环状态:误差放大器的增益设计应补偿取样耦合器3、和路器9、定向耦合器5以及电调衰减器2、电调移相器2等部件给误差通道带来的损耗,而取样耦合器3的耦合度选取要参照主功率放大器2的增益及电调衰减器1、电调移相器1的插入损耗,主功率放大器2是系统增益的主要实现者,若设它的增益为50dB,而7、8的插入损耗之和为10dB,那么只有取样耦合器C的耦合度为40dB(40dB的耦合器实现很复杂),才能保证在和路器(9)处参加对消的两路信号幅度相等(两路信号进行对消的基础为:幅度相等、相位相差180度)。这样,若取定向耦合器5的耦合度为20dB(由于取样耦合器3、定向耦合器5等串接于功放输出通道中,其插入损耗直接消耗功放输出功率,必须足够小,相应地耦合度应最好不小于20dB,即耦合抽取主功放输出信号中不大于1%的能量),则误差放大器增益应大于70dB。一般来说,大于70dB的放大器在一个电路模块中实现是很困难的,即使采用多个放大电路模块级连实现,不仅结构复杂化,增加系统设计难度和成本,而且多级电路级连造成延时很大,相应地延时线1(4)延时要求增加,延时线长度增加,不仅造成线性功率放大器延时很大(由于延时线1(4)串联与线性功放主通道上),而且延时线1(4)长度增加后,其插入损耗相应增加,而其插入损耗将直接“吃”掉主功放输出功率,这显然是无法接受的。为降低延时线插入损耗,必须选用性能更加优良的延时电缆(或延时器件),进而增加系统成本和体积以及设计难度。上面所有推导结果,都显示着系统高的实现难度和研制生产成本以及大的研发风险。It can be seen from Figure 1 that the feedforward linear power amplifier includes two basic signal cancellation loops—the main loop and the error loop. Each loop completes its own function independently: the main loop eliminates the working signal and extracts distortion information; the error loop Eliminate distortion components in the output of the power amplifier to achieve linearization goals. However, the design of the error loop is directly dependent on the state of the main loop: the gain design of the error amplifier should compensate for the sampling coupler 3, the combiner 9, the directional coupler 5, the ESC attenuator 2, and the ESC phase shifter 2. The loss caused by the error channel, and the coupling degree selection of the sampling coupler 3 should refer to the gain of the main power amplifier 2 and the insertion loss of the ESC attenuator 1 and the ESC phase shifter 1. The main power amplifier 2 is the main source of the system gain. For the implementer, if its gain is set to 50dB, and the sum of the insertion losses of 7 and 8 is 10dB, then only the coupling degree of the sampling coupler C is 40dB (the realization of the 40dB coupler is very complicated), so as to ensure the (9) The amplitudes of the two signals participating in the cancellation are equal (the basis for the cancellation of the two signals is: the amplitude is equal, and the phase difference is 180 degrees). In this way, if the coupling degree of the directional coupler 5 is taken as 20dB (because the sampling coupler 3, the directional coupler 5, etc. are connected in series in the output channel of the power amplifier, the insertion loss directly consumes the output power of the power amplifier, it must be small enough, and the corresponding coupling degree It should preferably not be less than 20dB, that is, the coupling extracts no more than 1% of the energy in the output signal of the main power amplifier), then the error amplifier gain should be greater than 70dB. Generally speaking, it is very difficult to realize an amplifier greater than 70dB in one circuit module. Even if multiple amplifying circuit modules are cascaded to realize, not only the structure is complicated, but also the difficulty and cost of system design are increased, and the multi-level circuit cascading causes delay The time is very large, correspondingly, the delay requirement of delay line 1 (4) increases, and the length of the delay line increases, which not only causes a large delay of the linear power amplifier (because the delay line 1 (4) is connected in series with the main channel of the linear power amplifier) , and when the length of the delay line 1(4) increases, its insertion loss increases accordingly, and its insertion loss will directly "eat" the output power of the main power amplifier, which is obviously unacceptable. In order to reduce the insertion loss of the delay line, a delay cable (or delay device) with better performance must be selected, which will increase the system cost, size and design difficulty. All the above derivation results show the high difficulty of system implementation, the cost of development and production, and the high risk of research and development.

图2是本发明的方法流程图。随着数字信号处理技术的发展成熟,大批量DSP商用化硬件芯片推向市场,各种应用开发软件也广泛向用户推出,其应用范围和深度急剧拓展。本发明就是基于DSP技术中最基本、最成熟的数字滤波器技术实现的信号消除方法。如图中所述,本发明所阐述的方法可按如下几个步骤实现:Fig. 2 is a flow chart of the method of the present invention. With the development and maturity of digital signal processing technology, a large number of DSP commercial hardware chips have been introduced to the market, and various application development software has also been widely released to users, and its application scope and depth have expanded rapidly. The present invention is a signal elimination method realized based on the most basic and mature digital filter technology in DSP technology. As shown in the figure, the method described in the present invention can be realized in the following steps:

第一步,判断系统工作载频所处信道号。我们知道,几乎所有通信系统都有自己的信道划分原则,也就是说,只要知道载频信号工作的信道号,即可得出其标准的频谱特性图。因此,本发明采用了一种最简单、最快捷的方法判定线性功率放大器传输的信号频道。通过一系列的耦合取样、混频下变频、中频滤波、直流检波以及频带扫描和超越门限判定等处理,检测出系统工作频带内所有的载波信号所处信道号,并实时传送给数字滤波电路。当然,如果线性功率放大器能够与基站收发信机(BTS)进行通信,可直接获取工作信道数据,这一步骤中所涉及的所有硬件除监控器316外都可以省略;The first step is to determine the channel number of the system operating carrier frequency. We know that almost all communication systems have their own channel division principles, that is to say, as long as the channel number of the carrier frequency signal is known, its standard spectrum characteristic diagram can be obtained. Therefore, the present invention adopts the simplest and fastest method to determine the signal channel transmitted by the linear power amplifier. Through a series of coupling sampling, frequency mixing down conversion, intermediate frequency filtering, DC detection, frequency band scanning and beyond threshold judgment, the channel numbers of all carrier signals in the system working frequency band are detected and sent to the digital filter circuit in real time. Of course, if the linear power amplifier can communicate with the base transceiver station (BTS), the working channel data can be obtained directly, and all hardware involved in this step can be omitted except the monitor 316;

第二步,依据工作信道判别结果设置数字滤波器。由于线性功率放大器只是为通信系统的射频信号提供一个透明传输通道,而通道内传输的载频频率及载频数目是随用户需求改变的,要想动态滤除系统工作频带内的所有载频信号,显然依靠固定频率的滤波器是无法实现的,因此这里选用基于DSP技术实现的数字滤波器消除主功放输出取样信号中的工作载频信号。对于一种通信系统,其信道频率特性是已知的、即定的,根据第一步的信道检测结果,设置数字滤波“开槽”位置,而这些“开槽”位置随程序模块入口参数(来自信道检测结果)即时改变,可实现动态跟踪系统工作频率建立载波信号消除滤波器的功能;In the second step, a digital filter is set according to the discrimination result of the working channel. Since the linear power amplifier only provides a transparent transmission channel for the radio frequency signal of the communication system, and the carrier frequency and the number of carrier frequencies transmitted in the channel change with the user's needs, it is necessary to dynamically filter out all carrier frequency signals in the system's working frequency band , it is obviously impossible to rely on a fixed frequency filter, so here we choose a digital filter based on DSP technology to eliminate the working carrier frequency signal in the output sampling signal of the main power amplifier. For a kind of communication system, its channel frequency characteristics are known and determined. According to the channel detection result of the first step, the digital filter "slot" position is set, and these "slot" positions vary with the program module entry parameters ( (from the channel detection result) can be changed instantly, which can realize the function of dynamically tracking the working frequency of the system and establishing a carrier signal elimination filter;

第三步,建立载波消除电路。数字信号处理(DSP)是完全基于数字化的二进制数字信息进行的,因此进行数字滤波前必需将待处理信号采样、保持、编码即进行模/数转换(ADC),而根据采样定律,必须以不小于信号频率两倍的采样速率将模拟信号数字化才不致于丢失其频率信息,所以应先将待处理信号降至ADC和DSP硬件可接受频率范围内,待进行数字滤波处理后再恢复到原来射频频率。载波消除的具体过程是:先取样主功放的部分输出信号,然后混频下变频、DAC、数字滤波、ADC、混频上变频。由于两次混频采用同一本振源信号,所以恢复后的射频信号除滤除了载频信息外,其他信息与主功放输出取样信号相同,即完全代表了主功放的非线性失真;The third step is to build a carrier cancellation circuit. Digital signal processing (DSP) is completely based on digitized binary digital information. Therefore, before digital filtering, the signal to be processed must be sampled, held, and encoded, that is, analog-to-digital conversion (ADC). The sampling rate is less than twice the signal frequency to digitize the analog signal so as not to lose its frequency information, so the signal to be processed should be reduced to the acceptable frequency range of the ADC and DSP hardware, and then restored to the original radio frequency after digital filtering frequency. The specific process of carrier cancellation is: first sample part of the output signal of the main power amplifier, then frequency mixing down conversion, DAC, digital filtering, ADC, frequency mixing up conversion. Since the same local oscillator source signal is used for the two frequency mixing, except for the filtered carrier frequency information, the recovered RF signal is the same as the output sampling signal of the main power amplifier, which completely represents the nonlinear distortion of the main power amplifier;

第四步,实现失真信号消除。这部分电路与一般前馈信号对消电路基本相同,不同之处在于:由于主功放输出取样电路——耦合器B332)的耦合度选取不再依赖于主功放增益(因为主环已经不存在),电路设计可以根据线性功放实际输出功率选择耦合器耦合度。若耦合器B332和耦合器C343的耦合度均选取20dB的耦合器,加上电调衰减器346和电调移相器347的插入损耗10dB,误差放大器348的增益仅需要50dB,显然,使用2~3级放大电路即可实现,而且为单模块方式,电路延时也大大缩小,相应地主功放输出通道中的延时线342长度减少,用做延时线的电缆性能和成本需求也会大幅降低。具体实现过程是:一路将直通的主功放输出信号延时,并送至耦合器C343;另一路将载波消除得到的误差信号345经过幅度相位调整及线性放大后送至耦合器C343;两路信号在耦合器C343中相减消除掉主功放输出信号中的失真成分,实现线性化目标。The fourth step is to realize the elimination of distorted signals. This part of the circuit is basically the same as the general feed-forward signal cancellation circuit, the difference is: the selection of the coupling degree of the main power amplifier output sampling circuit - coupler B332) no longer depends on the main power amplifier gain (because the main loop does not exist anymore) , the circuit design can select the coupling degree of the coupler according to the actual output power of the linear power amplifier. If the coupling degree of the coupler B332 and the coupler C343 is a coupler of 20dB, and the insertion loss of the electric attenuator 346 and the electric phase shifter 347 is 10dB, the gain of the error amplifier 348 only needs 50dB. Obviously, using 2 The ~3-level amplifier circuit can be realized, and it is a single module mode, and the circuit delay is also greatly reduced. Correspondingly, the length of the delay line 342 in the output channel of the main power amplifier is reduced, and the cable performance and cost requirements for the delay line will also be greatly reduced. reduce. The specific implementation process is: one way delays the output signal of the direct main power amplifier and sends it to the coupler C343; the other way sends the error signal 345 obtained by carrier cancellation to the coupler C343 after amplitude phase adjustment and linear amplification; the two-way signal In the coupler C343, the distortion components in the output signal of the main power amplifier are subtracted and eliminated to achieve the linearization goal.
