Embodiment
As mentioned above, if when between each local oscillator of transmitting terminal and receiving terminal, having phase deviation or frequency departure, the orientation diagram of quadrature amplitude modulated (QAM) signal has the phenomenon of deflection or rotation, in other words, as long as have phase deviation or frequency departure to exist therebetween, have the cross-talk phenomenon between in-phase signal ' I ' that is extracted by the I/Q withdrawal device of digital quadrature amplitude modulation receiver and orthogonal signalling ' Q ', thereby reduce its performance, so must detect frequency and the phase deviation that is positioned between transmitting terminal and receiving terminal local oscillator with carrier resetting device, with the deflection and the rotation situation of compensating signal orientation diagram.
We explain the situation of carrier deviation earlier, see also Fig. 3, this figure is the functional block diagram of quadrature amplitude modulation receiver of the present invention, the quadrature amplitude modulation receiver comprises a tuner 21, can convert the RF signal down that receives to intermediate-freuqncy signal, analog-digital converter 22 is taken a sample and digitlization to these signals then, and obtaining sample time is the discontinuous signal of T, and each is through digitized sampling x[n] can be write as x [ n ] = Re { ( I [ n ] + jQ [ n ] ) · e j 2 π f c nT } , F wherein cIt is the centre frequency of intermediate frequency carrier, Numerical Control oscillator 23 can further become baseband signal with digitized intermediate frequency sampling down converted, then suitably filter out unwanted high frequency partly, transmission rate (symbol k) according to system, signal after the filtration is through conversion, can have new sampling rate, so be the intact estimated signal of demodulation Yet, if have frequency deviation f[n between the centre frequency of Numerical Control oscillator 23 and intermediate frequency carrier] and phase deviation Δ θ [n], then the intersegmental cross-talk phenomenon that has of homophase wave band and quadrature wave takes place in the baseband signal after the down converted, and this influence is described as follows.
Carrier deviation Δ f[n is arranged] and the sampling of the digitlization intermediate frequency of Δ θ [n] can be write as
x [ n ] = Re { ( I [ n ] + jQ [ n ] ) · e j [ 2 π ( f c + Δf [ n ] ) nT + Δθ [ n ] ] } , Or write as I[n in addition] cos[2 π (f c+ Δ f[n]) nT+ Δ θ [n]]-Q[n] sin[2 π (f c+ Δ f[n]) nT+ Δ θ [n]].
If do not use any carrier resetting device, signal can produce disagreeable twisted phenomena:
I′[n]=I[n]·cos(2π·Δf[n]·nT+Δθ[n])-Q[n]·sin(2π·Δf[n]·nT+Δθ[n])
Q′[n]=Q[n]·cos(2π·Δf[n]·nT+Δθ[n])+I[n]·sin(2π·Δf[n]·nT+Δθ[n])。
We must use carrier resetting device 24 to come estimated bias Δ f[n] and Δ θ [n], by these carrier informations, Numerical Control oscillator 23 can be adjusted its frequency and phase place, to eliminate the cross-talk phenomenon of harmful rotation and base band sampling (I[n], Q[n]).
See also Fig. 4, this figure is the functional block diagram of carrier resetting device preferred embodiment of the present invention, and carrier resetting device comprises phase detectors 31, locking-controller 32, frequency locking device 33, phase loop filter assembly 34.The homophase that phase detectors 31 extract from signal is  [k] and quadrature portion partly

Be considered as complex vector located Extract signal on orientation diagram quadrant and another is complex vector located sign ( I ^ [ k ] ) + j · sign ( Q ^ [ K ] ) Identical, the sign of homophase part and quadrature portion decides its quadrant in the utilization extraction signal exactly, and we can utilize following formula to derive this phase relation of two complex vector located:
( I ^ [ k ] + j Q ^ [ k ] ) / sign ( I ^ [ k ] ) + j · sign ( Q ^ [ k ] )
Through normalization (normlization) and simplification, we select imaginary part as phase error information, and formula is:
Q ^ [ k ] · sign ( I ^ [ k ] ) - I ^ [ k ] · sign ( Q ^ [ k ] / 2 · ( I ^ [ k ] 2 + Q ^ [ k ] 2 ) )
Phase detectors 31 are sent to frequency locking device 33 and phase loop filter 34 with phase error information cur_phase, and with the detection signal energy
Figure C0212228000109
Be sent to locking-controller 32, for judging whether that further accepting this extracts signal.The phase detectors of Fig. 5 B are more simplified than Fig. 5 A, have wherein omitted some assembly averages, change with constant C V to replace.
According to the present invention, frequency locking device 33 and phase loop filter 34 are not all to be under the compute mode always, carrier resetting device of the present invention is divided into three main operation stages, the firstth, under search pattern, the secondth, in search and follow the trail of under the merging patterns, the 3rd be under the tracking pattern.Suppose when carrier resetting device begins to activate, the frequency departure of intermediate frequency is greatly to several ten thousand hertz, at this moment the aspect figure of homophase and quadrature portion can seriously rotate, and at this moment the estimated value Δ θ [k] of phase deviation does not have any help to the compensation carrier deviation, so in the phase I, it is effective having only frequency locking device 33, and to obtain the information of frequency departure, locking-controller 32 then control phase loop filter 34 is in no active state.When the variation of estimated frequency has been pulled to small range, phase loop filter 34 begins to add the computing line, searches for fast, and in other words, in second stage, frequency locking device 33 and phase loop filter 34 act on simultaneously.After one period processing time, when frequency locking device 33 trends are stablized, it is very little that the variation of estimated frequency also becomes, finely tune phase loop filter 34 compensating remaining phase error this moment, after, locking-controller 32 is closed frequency locking device 33, the fixing output valve Δ f[k of frequency locking device 33], avoid carrier resetting device to produce unnecessary vibrations, in the phase III, have only phase loop filter 34 that effect is arranged.
The computing principle of the flowchart text locking-controller 32 of Fig. 6, in carrier resetting device of the present invention, not every extraction signal The capital is used to search rate and phase error information, if signal energy
Figure C0212228000112
" PWR_THRES " is little than predetermined set value, and carrier resetting device can keep original Δ f[k] and Δ θ [k] value, this device focused energy can be avoided newly-increased interference of noise by strengthening system greater than the signal of preset value.
About selecting the set point of 64-QAM and 256-QAM " PWR_THRES " please refer to the example of Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, set point " PWR_THRES " selection mode be to allow the extraction quadrature modulation signal that is positioned at the corner in the orientation diagram
Figure C0212228000113
In suitable quantity incoming carrier recovery device can be arranged, if the selection of set point " PWR_THRES " is suitable, can carry out fastish search, one skilled in the art will recognize that quick search meeting adds noise in the detected phase error, utilize the mean value of a succession of detected phase error can filter out these noises.
Please consult Fig. 6 again, locking-controller 32 receives the detection signal energy from phase detectors 31, if the detection signal energy is greater than set point " PWR_THRES ", then control signal " valid_flag " is set as " TRUE ", on the contrary, if the detection signal energy then is set as control signal " valid_flag " not greater than set point " PWR_THRES " " FALSE "." valid_flag " is when control signal " TRUE " time, carry out the three stages computing that the front is narrated, locking-controller 32 can monitoring frequency locking devices 33 output " FSS ", and with set point " PLF_THRES " and " FL_LOCK " comparison, wherein the value of " PLF_THRES " greater than " FL_LOCK "." FSS " is greater than preset value " PLF_THRES " be illustrated between local value control generator and intermediate frequency carrier frequency and still have very big frequency departure, at this moment, locking-controller 32 can force carrier resetting device to remain on the search phase, " FL_out_flag " is set as with control signal " TRUE ", allow frequency locking device 33 act on, control signal " PLF_out_flag " is set to simultaneously " FALSE ", make not effect of phase loop filter 34.When " FSS " is equal to or less than set point " PLF_THRES ", but during still greater than another set point " FL_LOCK " (it defines less than " PLF_THRES "), locking-controller 32 order carrier resetting devices enter second operation stages, " PLF_out_flag " is set as " TRUE " with control signal, makes phase loop filter 34 begin effect.If " FSS " is equal to or less than this second set point " FL_LOCK ", that will enter the 3rd operation stages exactly, and carrier resetting device is set as " FALSE " with control signal " FL_out_flag ", positive closing frequency locking device 33.
The computing principle of the flowchart text frequency locking device 33 of Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B after carrier resetting device activates, just earlier is set as predetermined value with all control marks in the frequency locking device 33 at the beginning in steps A, initial conditions are:
counnt_pnt=0
over_flag=“FALSE”
AFE=0
pre_AFE=0
FSS=FSS_INIT
sflag1=0
sflag2=0
Δf[0]=0
In step 91, frequency locking device 33 at first detects control signal " FL_out_flag " from locking-controller 32, if control signal " FL_out_flag " is " FALSE ", the expression carrier resetting device is in the 3rd operation stages, close frequency locking device 33, then in step 92, frequency is adjusted step number value " FSS " set preset value " FL_LOCK " for, frequency locking device 33 is fixed output Δ f[k simultaneously] be last estimated value, carry out step B again, output " FSS " is to locking-controller 32; Another side at flow chart, if control signal " FL_out_flag " is " TRUE ", the expression carrier resetting device is in aforesaid first or second operation stages, in step 93, the output " count_pnt " of frequency locking device 33 inside counting devices 331 (Fig. 4) can add 1, then in step 94, frequency locking device 33 can be checked the state of control signal " valid_flag ", " valid_flag " is if frequency locking device 33 detects control signal " FALSE ", then carry out step C, this partly will be explained below, otherwise, " valid_flag " is when control signal " TRUE " time, then activate the function that detects frequency error.
In step 96, load detected phase error " cur_phase " from phase detectors 31 earlier, the step that detects frequency departure is as follows:
Step 97: if the absolute value of " cur_phase " does not have less than preset value " THRES_PHASE ", then execution in step 98, otherwise execution in step 101.
Step 98: check control signal " over_flag ", this be used for the explanation " cur_phase " absolute value whether greater than " THRES_PHASE ", if " over_flag " is " TRUE ", then execution in step 99, if " over_flag " is " FALSE ", then execution in step 100.
Step 99: " AFE " added " pre_FE ",, arrive step C then as the updating value of " AFE ".
Step 100: " pre_FE " is set as set point " THRES_PHASE ", its sign is then identical with " cur_phase ", equally " AFE " is added then " pre_FE ", to upgrade " AFE ", and " over_flag " be set as " TRUE ", enter step C.
Step 101: the value of " AFE " is updated to the value that " AFE " adds " cur_phase ", and " over_flag " is set as " FALSE ", enter step C.
Step C: the step of adjusting frequency value " FSS ", output " FSS " and Δ f[k] and, its step is described further below.
In the step 102 of Fig. 9 B, frequency locking device 33 checks whether the value of " count_pnt " has arrived " CAL_PNT ", if also do not have, in step 103, keep " FSS " and Δ f[k] original value, if the value of " count_pnt " has arrived " CAL_PNT ", upgrade " FSS " and Δ f[k] as following step.
Step 104: check whether " sflag1 " and " sflag2 " all is ' 0 ', if not, execution in step 105; If in step 106, " sflag2 " is set at ' 1 ', execution in step 107.
Step 105: the value that loads " sflag1 " is to " sflag2 ", and the value of renewal " sflag1 " is that " AFE " multiply by the sign of " pre_AFE ", execution in step 108.
Step 108: check whether " sflag1 " and " sflag2 " all is ' 1 ', if that represents that continuous three " AFE " have identical sign, and " FSS " be multiply by 2, execution in step 107 then; If not, execution in step 109.
Step 109: check whether " sflag1 " and " sflag2 " all is ' 1 ', if that represents that continuous three " AFE " are alternate positive and negatives, in step 111, with " FSS " divided by 2; If not, then do not change " FSS " and value, execution in step 107.
Step 107: " pre_AFE " is set as " AFE ", with Δ f[k] add that " FSS " multiply by the sign of " AFE ", as Δ f[k] updating value, the value with " count_pnt " and " AFE " all is set as 0 then.
In step 112, no matter " FSS " and Δ f[k] whether be updated, frequency locking device 33 all can output to it locking-controller 32 and Numerical Control oscillator 23 respectively.
See also Figure 10 now, Figure 10 is the circuit block diagram of phase loop filter among Fig. 4, phase loop filter 34 comprises primary circuit filter 341 and output multiplexer 342, multiplexer 342 detections are from control signal " PLF_out_flag " and " valid_flag " that locking-controller 32 comes out, and responding these control signals decision phase loop filters is to export updating value or original value.See also the flow chart of the 11 figure, this figure has illustrated the computing principle of phase loop filter 34, and parameter " Cp " and " Ci " representative search frequency range are if the value of " Cp " and " Ci " is big more, then search rate is also fast more, but also can produce bigger vibrations; On the contrary, if select less " Cp " and " Ci ", then shake less, but system needs long time convergence.We can at the beginning, select bigger " Cp " and " Ci ", after through the default processing time, make less " Cp " and " Ci " into then, can reach quick search so simultaneously and follow the trail of effect preferably.
The 11st figure is the flow chart of explanation phase loop filter 34 computing principles, and flow chart is from step D, and initial conditions are:
Δθ[0]=0
D_reg[0]=0
In step 113, phase loop filter 34 at first detects from two control signals " valid_flag " and " PLF_out_flag " of locking-controller 32 outputs, as previously mentioned, whether control signal " valid_flag " points out to extract signal effective, and control signal " PLF_out_flag " points out whether to activate phase loop filter 34, when these two control signals all are " TRUE ", execution in step 114 and 115, phase loop filter 34 can pass to low pass filter (not drawing) with phase error information " cur_phase ", through after the computing, to upgrade its output, this can help to be avoided newly-increased noise; On the contrary, if " valid_flag " or " PLF_out_flag " is " FALSE ", in step 116, phase loop filter 34 can keep original output valve, in step 117, phase loop filter 34 output Δ θ [k] are to Numerical Control oscillator 23 then.
In summary, even digital quadrature amplitude modulation receiver has very big frequency departure and phase deviation ([π, π]), carrier resetting device of the present invention also helps to extract undistorted signal The present invention not only is applicable to broad lock-in range, the ability that quick search is also arranged simultaneously, but because the convergence of above-mentioned phase loop filter can cause 0 °, 90 °, 180 °, 270 ° phase place indeterminate, so need extra device, not bad existing known signal technique of alignment can overcome the indefinite problem of phase place, or can utilize the differential code method in addition, allow the rotation among the aspect figure fix.
Under the situation that does not break away from the described protection range of claim, the present invention can carry out various modifications by those skilled in the art.
