Description

Measure the device of characteristics of tuner
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to measure the device of characteristics of tuner, relate in more detail, measure the device of characteristics of tuner at high speed in order to adjust or check tuner.
Background technology
Fig. 1 representes that according to functional-block diagram prior art, that measure the device of characteristics of tuner Fig. 2 is used to explain according to flow chart prior art, that measure the method for characteristics of tuner.As shown in Figure 1, existing device has CPU1, PLL frequency synthesizer 2, linear detection unit 3, logarithmic detector unit 4, VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (voltage standing wave ratio)) determination unit 5, switch 6 and A/D converter 7.
At first, CPU1 will be used for that tuned frequency (channel frequency) is set in assigned frequency (for example, the control signal on 801.25MHz) will output to tuner 10 (step 201).Tuner 10 and control signal correspondingly are set in tuned frequency on the assigned frequency.Tuner 10 further generates to be held tuned frequency and the intermediate frequency (frequency of for example, 43.5MHz) adding up (signal of local frequencies (for example, 844.75MHz)).
(linear determination)
CPU1 outputs to the mode of A/D converter 7 with it, configuration switch 6 (step 202) with switch 6 signal voltage that 3 inputs have intermediate frequency from the linear detection unit.
Below, CPU1 will be used for that scanning frequency (Fs) is set in the 1st frequency (original frequency), and (Fs1) (for example, the 1st control signal on 787.75MHz) outputs to PLL frequency synthesizer 2 (step 203).PLL frequency synthesizer 2 and the 1st control signal correspondingly generate the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1), and it is outputed to tuner 10 and VSWR determination unit 5.The RF signal that tuner 10 has the 1st frequency (Fs1) from PLL frequency synthesizer 2 input outputs to VSWR determination unit 5 with the reflected signal of RF signal.The RF signal that tuner 10 will have the 1st frequency (Fs1) mixes with the signal that has local frequencies, generates mixed signal.Tuner 10 further uses the filter corresponding with intermediate frequency that mixed signal is carried out filtering, generates the signal with intermediate frequency.The signal that tuner 10 will have intermediate frequency outputs to linear detection unit 3 and logarithm detecting unit 4.
Linear detection unit 3 detects the signal voltage with intermediate frequency from the signal that tuner 10 inputs have intermediate frequency.The signal voltage that linear detection unit 3 will have intermediate frequency outputs to switch 6.Switch 6 signal voltage that 3 inputs have intermediate frequency from the linear detection unit outputs to A/D converter 7 with it.The signal voltage that A/D converter 7 will have intermediate frequency is transformed into digital value, outputs to CPU1.CPU1 is after outputing to PLL frequency synthesizer 2 with the 1st control signal; The sweep spacing (Δ ts) of process regulation (for example; 3 μ sec) preceding, be taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, digital value and the 1st frequency (Fs1) are stored (step 203) as the 1st linear determination value
CPU1 judges that whether scanning frequency (Fs) (Fsn) (for example, 814.75MHz) equates or than its little (step 204) with n frequency (final frequency).When scanning frequency (Fs) equate with n frequency (Fsn) or than it hour, CPU1 judges that scanning does not finish.When scanning frequency (Fs) do not equate with n frequency (Fsn) or unlike it hour, CPU1 has judged the end of scan.
When scanning frequency (Fs) equate with n frequency (Fsn) or than it hour, CPU1 makes scanning frequency (Fs) only increase assigned frequency (Δ Fs) (for example, 0.0225MHz) (step 203) to the sweep spacing (Δ ts) of each regulation.That is, when when exporting the 1st control signal during only through the sweep spacing (Δ ts) of regulation, CPU1 will be used for the 2nd control signal that scanning frequency (Fs) is set on the 2nd frequency (Fs2=Fs1+ Δ Fs) is outputed to PLL frequency synthesizer 2.PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 2nd frequency (Fs2), and the RF signal that tuner 10 will have the 2nd frequency mixes with the signal that has local frequencies, after this, uses the filter corresponding with intermediate frequency to generate the signal with intermediate frequency.Linear detection unit 3 detects the signal voltage with intermediate frequency, and the signal voltage that switch 6 will have intermediate frequency outputs to A/D converter 7, and the signal voltage that A/D converter 7 will have intermediate frequency is transformed into digital value, outputs to CPU1.CPU1 is after outputing to PLL frequency synthesizer 2 with the 2nd control signal, and is preceding through the sweep spacing (Δ ts) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 2nd frequency (Fs2) are stored (step 203) as the 2nd linear determination value.
So; PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn); Tuner 10 generates the signal with corresponding intermediate frequency, and CPU1 stores (step 203) with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn) and the digital value corresponding with it as the 1st linear determination value~n linear determination value.Fig. 3 is the figure that is used for explaining the RF signal with the 1st frequency (the Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn) that is generated by the CPU1 of Fig. 1 and PLL frequency synthesizer 2.As shown in Figure 3, the frequency of RF signal increases in time together.
(logarithm mensuration)
In step 204, when judge that scanning frequency (Fs) does not equate with n frequency (Fsn) or unlike it hour, the CPU1 judgement end of scan.CPU1 with switch 6 from the logarithmic detector unit 4 inputs the signal voltage with intermediate frequency has been carried out the logarithm voltage of logarithmic transformation, and it is outputed to the mode of A/D converter 7, configuration switch 6 (step 205).
Step 203 and step 204 are same; CPU1 generates the 1st control signal~n control signal that is used for scanning frequency (Fs) is set in the 1st frequency~n frequency; PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn); Tuner 10 generates the signal with corresponding intermediate frequency; Logarithmic detector unit 4 detects the logarithm voltage of the signal with corresponding intermediate frequency, the digital value of the logarithm voltage that A/D converter 7 outputs are corresponding, and CPU1 stores (step 206 and step 207) with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn) and the digital value corresponding with it as the 1st logarithm measured value~n logarithm measured value.
(VSWR mensuration)
In step 207, when judge that scanning frequency (Fs) does not equate with n frequency (Fsn) or unlike it hour, the CPU1 judgement end of scan.CPU1 from VSWR determination unit 5 input expression from the RF signal and the voltage of the reflected signal voltage standing wave ratio of trying to achieve, outputs to the mode of A/D converter 7 with it, configuration switch 6 (step 208) with switch 6.In addition, voltage standing wave ratio is the ratio of the maximum and the minimum of voltage standing wave(VSW).
Same with step 203 and step 204; Generation is used for scanning frequency (Fs) is set in the 1st control signal~n control signal on the 1st frequency~n frequency; PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn); VSWR determination unit 5 detects the voltage of the corresponding voltage standing wave ratio of expression; The digital value of the voltage of the voltage standing wave ratio that A/D converter 7 output expressions are corresponding, CPU1 stores (step 209 and step 210) with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn) and the digital value corresponding with it as 1VSWR measured value~nVSWR measured value.
In step 210, when judge that scanning frequency (Fs) does not equate with n frequency (Fsn) or unlike it hour, the CPU1 judgement end of scan.

The working of an invention mode of explanation is illustrated in the illustrative execution mode of the invention of putting down in writing in claims below, and the present invention should not be defined in following execution mode.
(the 1st execution mode)
Device and existing device according to mensuration characteristics of tuner of the present invention are same, have CPU1, PLL frequency synthesizer 2, linear detection unit 3, logarithmic detector unit 4, VSWR determination unit 5, switch 6 and A/D converter 7.But, have and existing action different portions according to the action of CPU1 of the present invention and switch 6.Fig. 5 is used to explain the flow chart according to the method for mensuration characteristics of tuner of the present invention, and Fig. 6 is used to explain the figure that the RF signal that is scanned is taken into the timing of measured value.
At first, CPU1 will be used for the control signal that tuned frequency (channel frequency) is set on the assigned frequency is outputed to tuner 10 (step 501).Tuner 10 and control signal correspondingly are set in tuned frequency on the assigned frequency.Tuner 10 further generates the signal that has the frequency (local frequencies) that tuned frequency and intermediate frequency are added up.
Below, CPU1 will be used for that scanning frequency (Fs) is set in 1st control signal of the 1st frequency (original frequency) on (Fs1) and output to PLL frequency synthesizer 2 (step 502).PLL frequency synthesizer 2 and the 1st control signal correspondingly generate the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1), and it is outputed to tuner 10 and VSWR determination unit 5.The RF signal that tuner 10 has the 1st frequency (Fs1) from PLL frequency synthesizer 2 input outputs to VSWR determination unit 5 with the reflected signal of RF signal.The RF signal that tuner 10 will have the 1st frequency (Fs1) mixes with the signal that has local frequencies, generates mixed signal.Tuner 10 further uses the filter corresponding with intermediate frequency that mixed signal is carried out filtering, generates the signal with intermediate frequency.The signal that tuner 10 will have intermediate frequency outputs to linear detection unit 3 and logarithm detecting unit 4.
Linear detection unit 3 detects the signal voltage with intermediate frequency from the signal that tuner 10 inputs have intermediate frequency.The signal voltage that linear detection unit 3 will have intermediate frequency outputs to switch 6.
Logarithmic detector unit 4 detects the logarithm voltage that the signal voltage with intermediate frequency has been carried out logarithmic transformation from the signal that tuner 10 inputs have intermediate frequency.The logarithm voltage that linear detection unit 3 will carry out logarithmic transformation to the signal voltage with intermediate frequency outputs to switch 6.
VSWR determination unit 5 is imported the reflected signal of the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1) from the RF signal that 2 inputs of PLL frequency synthesizer have the 1st frequency (Fs1) from tuner 10.VSWR determination unit 5 detects the voltage of expression voltage standing wave ratio from RF signal and its reflected signal.VSWR determination unit 5 will represent that the voltage of voltage standing wave ratio outputs to switch 6.
When the 1st control signal is outputed to PLL frequency synthesizer 2, CPU1 configuration switch 6, its result, switch 6 signal voltage that 3 inputs have intermediate frequency from the linear detection unit, and it is outputed to A/D converter 7 (step 502).The signal voltage that A/D converter 7 will have intermediate frequency is transformed into digital value, outputs to CPU1.CPU1 is behind configuration switch, and is preceding through the switch gap (Δ tt) (for example, 1 μ sec) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 1st frequency (Fs1) are stored (step 502) as the 1st linear determination value.
After having set switch; When passing through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation; CPU1 is configuration switch 6 once more, its as a result switch 6 from the logarithmic detector unit 4 inputs the signal voltage with intermediate frequency has been carried out the logarithm voltage of logarithmic transformation, and it is outputed to A/D converter 7 (step 502).The logarithm voltage transformation that the signal voltage that A/D converter 7 will have an intermediate frequency has carried out logarithmic transformation becomes digital value, outputs to CPU1.CPU1 is once more behind the configuration switch, and is preceding through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 1st frequency (Fs1) are stored (step 502) as the 1st logarithm measured value.

Through doing like this, CPU1 is to the switch gap (Δ tt) of each regulation, configuration switch 6, and it is switch 6 order of pressing linear detection unit 3, logarithmic detector unit 4 and VSWR determination unit 5 as a result, and handover operation (please with reference to Fig. 6) is carried out in the input of switch 6.In addition, when handover operation was carried out in the input of switch 6, CPU1 was taken into digital value from A/D converter 7.So CPU1 presses the order of linear determination value, logarithm detection definite value and VSWR measured value, is taken into digital value (please with reference to Fig. 6).
CPU1 judges that whether scanning frequency (Fs) (Fsn) equates or than its little (step 503) with n frequency (final frequency).When scanning frequency (Fs) equate with n frequency (Fsn) or than it hour, CPU1 is to the sweep spacing (Δ ts=3 * Δ tt) of each regulation, makes scanning frequency (Fs) only increase the frequency (Δ Fs) (step 502) of regulation.That is, CPU1 is when during only through the sweep spacing (Δ ts) of regulation, being used for the 2nd control signal that scanning frequency (Fs) is set on the 2nd frequency (Fs2=Fs1+ Δ Fs) is outputed to PLL frequency synthesizer 2 when exporting the 1st control signal.PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 2nd frequency (Fs2), and the reflected signal that tuner 10 will have the RF signal of the 2nd frequency outputs to VSWR determination unit 5.The RF signal that tuner 10 will have the 2nd frequency mixes with the signal that has local frequencies, uses the filter corresponding with intermediate frequency to generate the signal with intermediate frequency.The signal that tuner 10 will have intermediate frequency outputs to linear detection unit 3 and logarithmic detector unit 4.
When the 2nd control signal is outputed to PLL frequency synthesizer 2, CPU1 configuration switch 6, its result, switch 6 signal voltage (step 502) that 3 inputs have intermediate frequency from the linear detection unit.CPU1 is behind configuration switch, and is preceding through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 2nd frequency (Fs2) are stored (step 502) as the 2nd linear determination value.
Behind configuration switch, during through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, CPU1 is configuration switch 6 once more, its as a result switch 6 from the logarithmic detector unit 4 inputs the signal voltage with intermediate frequency has been carried out the logarithm voltage (step 502) of logarithmic transformation.CPU1 is behind configuration switch once more, and is preceding through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 2nd frequency (Fs2) are stored (step 502) as the 2nd logarithm measured value.
Behind configuration switch once more, during through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, CPU1 is configuration switch 6 once more, its as a result switch 6 from the 5 input expressions of VSWR determination unit from the RF signal and the voltage (step 502) of the reflected signal voltage standing wave ratio of trying to achieve.CPU1 is behind configuration switch once more, and is preceding through the switch gap (Δ tt) of regulation, is taken into digital value from A/D converter 7, and digital value and the 2nd frequency (Fs2) are stored (step 502) as the 2VSWR measured value.
In step 503, when scanning frequency (Fs) do not equate with n frequency (Fsn) or unlike it hour, CPU1 has judged the end of scan.
So; PLL frequency synthesizer 2 generates the RF signal with the 1st frequency (Fs1)~n frequency (Fsn), and CPU1 stores (step 502) with the 1st linear determination value~n linear determination value, the 1st logarithm measured value~n logarithm measured value and 1VSWR measured value~nVSWR measured value.
According to the method for mensuration characteristics of tuner of the present invention, measure in order 1 tuned frequency (channel frequency) to be implemented linear determination, logarithm mensuration and VSWR, can only need carry out 1 time RF signal scanning as shown in Figure 3.So, can measure characteristics of tuner at high speed, shorten the time of adjustment or inspection tuner.
(the 2nd execution mode)
In the 1st execution mode; CPU1 is to switch gap (the Δ tt=Δ ts/3) configuration switch 6 of each regulation; It is switch 6 order of pressing linear detection unit 3, logarithmic detector unit 4 and VSWR determination unit 5 as a result, and handover operation (please with reference to Fig. 6) is carried out in the input of switch 6.
In the 2nd execution mode; CPU1 is to the switch gap (Δ tt=Δ ts) of each regulation; Configuration switch 6, it is switch 6 order of pressing linear detection unit 3, logarithmic detector unit 4 and VSWR determination unit 5 as a result, and handover operation (please with reference to Fig. 7) is carried out in the input of switch 6.
