The theory relation of each port of electric bridge sees the following form:
Figure C200610021699D00081
Fig. 2 is the third order intermodulation schematic diagram of RF fundamental neutralizing circuit provided by the present invention, and concerning a nonlinear device, three order components of its output and five order components sharply increase with the increase of input signal.Third order intermodulation rejection ratio (IMD3, be called for short third order intermodulation): refer to the decibel value of the power ratio of the fundametal compoment of amplifier output signal and third order intermodulation component, represent, see Fig. 2 with IMD3.Wherein, F1 and F2 are that two power of input equate and the output component of the different signals of frequency after amplifying by amplifier that for ideal amplifier, its output should only comprise F1 and F2.But actual amplifier is owing to exist distortion, and its output just not only only comprises F1 and F2, but has comprised numerous new frequency components.To systematic influence bigger mainly contain F3, F4, F5, F6 etc.Wherein, F3=2*F1-F2, F4=2*F2-F1.F5=3*F1-2*F2,F6=3*F2-2*F1。They all are because device non-linear, make F1 and F2 produce in the process of amplifying that various combination of frequencies (being called intermodulation again) form.F3 and F4 just are called as the third order intermodulation component, and F5 and F6 just are called as five rank intermodulation components.
Fig. 3 is the input signal and the output first-harmonic of RF fundamental neutralizing circuit provided by the present invention and exports three order components and five order component graphs of a relation.Curve A is represented the variation relation of the power output of fundamental signal with input power, and its slope is 1.It and ordinate have an intersection point, the value of power output, just Amplifier Gain G when input power is 0dBm when being illustrated in input power and being 0dBm; Curve B is represented the variation relation of three order components with input power, and its slope is 3; Curve C is represented the theoretic extension of the linearity range of curve A fundamental signal, and the extension curve of it and three order components has an intersection point, and this intersection point is called third order intermodulation cut-off point (OIP3).Curve D represents that five order components are with the variation relation of input power in the output signal, and its slope is 5.The extension curve of curve C and five order components has an intersection point, and this intersection point can be called five rank intermodulation cut-off points (OIP5).The IMD3 of this amplifier has following formula when power output is P0:
IMD3=P0-IM3=(OIP3-P0)*2
IM3=3*P0-2*OIP3
As can be seen from Figure 3, when input power increased 1dB, the corresponding increase of the fundamental power of output 1dB exported three order components and then increases 3dB, and output IMD3 then reduces 2dB; Export five order components and then increase 5dB, output IMD5 then reduces 4dB.
For a concrete power amplifier, the distortion situation on its three rank and five rank has nothing in common with each other, suitable such as the three order component power of exporting when predistortion circuit, and five order component power are when not enough, then three order components of power amplifier output can better be offset, and five order component neutralization effect differences are a little, and then the linearisation effect of power amplifier output is just not so good.At this moment can adjust the 3rd adjustable attenuator 11, reduce attenuation, input power is increased, three rank and the five order component power of output are all increased simultaneously: three order component power increase 3 times, and five order component power increase 5 times, adjust the 4th adjustable attenuator 12 then, make three rank of output obtain identical attenuation with five rank power.By such adjustment, the power of three rank and five order components can both be complementary with the distortion situation of power amplifier, improve effect thereby reach best linearity.Other three rank and five rank power mismatch situations also are to adjust according to same principle.
This shows, adjust power by suitable adjustment the 3rd adjustable attenuator 11, can adjust the amplitude on three rank and five rank neatly, can make itself and power amplifier reach the optimum Match state, linearisation improves best results.
