Fig. 1 represents the calcspar of a kind of digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100.This digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100 has a modulation demodulator 105, it is exported respectively has homophase (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component 110,115 digital signal and with these digital signals, via low pass filter (LPF) 120,125, be sent to digital baseband (DBB) compensation processor 130 and digital analog converter (DAC) circuit 135, use analog signal output to artificial antenna conveyer 150.Low pass filter (LPF) 120,125 can be root rised cosine (RRC) filter or other suitable filter.This digital analog converter (DAC) circuit 135 has digital analog converter (DAC) 140,145.
This digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100 has more a controller 155, and it carries out this digital baseband (DBB) compensation processor 130 and all initiatively control of composition maintenances of this artificial antenna conveyer 150.In addition, this controller 155 is to control (TPC) signal by the through-put power that base station or other entity receive by this modulation demodulator 105 of access, and accordingly, this controller 150 just can be carried out and calculate or other function.
This artificial antenna conveyer 150 has an antenna 160, a power amplifier 165, a modulator 170, a power detecting device 175, monitors a temperature inductor 180 of artificial antenna conveyer 150 temperature, measures one of artificial antenna conveyer 150 drift currents drift current inductor 185.The composition of artificial antenna conveyer 150 is become to be grouped into by the low cost (" low-quality ") of the specification that conforms to current standards.For instance, because the pre-distortion compensated module of this digital baseband (DBB) compensation processor 130, the specification of this power amplifier 165 does not need very strict.
Please refer to Fig. 2, digital baseband (DBB) compensation processor 130 has at least one module of following modules, uses the usefulness of strengthening this artificial antenna conveyer 150, and it comprises:
(1) the digital pre-distortion compensating module 205;
(2) digital DC (DC) migration module 210;
(3) the uneven compensating module 215 of digital amplitude; And
(4) the uneven compensating module 220 of digit phase.
This digital pre-distortion compensating module 205 can be used for proofreading and correct the transmission amplitude characteristic, such as: amplitude modulation (AM) signal characteristic to amplitude modulation (AM) and amplitude modulation (AM) to phase modulation (PM).In this artificial antenna conveyer 150, the amplitude of power amplifier 165 and phase property be utilize the statistical sampling method or according to power detecting device 175 manufacturer's specifications to determine.This digital pre-distortion compensating module 205 is in response in the through-put power control (TPC) that receives signal input and 105 receptions of modulation demodulator, uses the power of the antenna 160 of this artificial antenna conveyer 150 of prediction.Known gain and phase property based on this power amplifier 165, this digital pre-distortion compensating module 205 is deliberately phase place and the amplitude of distortion homophase (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component just, uses making this power amplifier 165 produce linear responses but not the distortion response.This digital pre-distortion compensating module 205 can also with reference to tabling look-up (LUT) or like that, be used the counter-rotating that obtains this class A amplifier A feature.Preferred embodiment of the present invention is relatively favourable, because: even using cheaply, this artificial antenna conveyer 150 reaches inferior composition (for instance, hang down the amplifier of power output limit), and radio frequency (RF) parameter and standard (such as: the intermodulation distortion) can also obtain to satisfy.
This digital DC (DC) migration module 210 can be based on first and second direct current (DC) migration numerical value of previous decision (that is: store), and it is accurate to proofread and correct the carrier leak of (that is: constrain) this artificial antenna conveyer 150 to adjust direct current (DC) position of these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component.Determine these direct currents (DC) migration numerical value, the homophase (I) of this digital baseband (DBB) and quadrature (Q) signal component input 110,115 must switch to controller 155 (diverter switch is not shown among the figure) by modulation demodulator 105.This controller 155 can scan respectively these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component input 110,115 direct current (DC) position accurate (for instance: by negative sequentially to just or by just sequentially to negative), simultaneously, this power detecting device 175 can determine with regional oscillator (LO) frequency of modulator 170 each first and second minimum detecting reading.(for instance, this controller 155 not sweep signal composition input is set as zero, uses that it is closed) then can be temporarily interrupted in the signal component input that does not scan at present.
First and second direct current (DC) migration numerical value (that is: compensating factor K1 and K2) be that first and second minimum detecting reading of interpolation is to obtain.Subsequently, first and second direct current (DC) migration numerical value can store for following reference, by this, the input of these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component just can be respectively in response in first and second direct current (DC) migration numerical value to adjust.
In another kind of preferred embodiment, this controller 155 can cooperate detecting algorithm and this power detecting device 175 to use.This controller 155 is direct current (DC) the position standards that scan simultaneously each homophase (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component.This detecting algorithm is to utilize coordinate system to use to determine at least one minimum detecting reading, by this, direct current (DC) the position standard of each homophase (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component just can put on X-axis and Y-axis, simultaneously, the detecting reading of these power detecting device 175 inductions can also be applied to Z axis.
The uneven compensating module 215 of this digital amplitude can be used for average these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component, uses the modulator 170 that makes this artificial antenna conveyer 150 and can utilize equal-wattage position these homophases of accurate modulation (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component.Suppose that this modulator 170 is cheap and low-quality, then this modulator 170 is to tend on average deficiency of amplitude.For instance, if this homophase (I) signal component this quadrature of input ratio (Q) signal component is inputted little 1.0dB, just then the uneven compensating module 215 of this digital amplitude can make the power level of this quadrature (Q) signal component input reduce 1.0dB.So, the output of this modulator 170, that is: these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component just can have same-amplitude.Utilize this controller 155, these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component just can be distinguished switch.For instance, if this controller 155 cuts out the input of this quadrature (Q) signal component, then only there is the input of this homophase (I) signal component to be sent out, and this controller 155 just can determine the power level that the power detecting device 175 of this artificial antenna conveyer 150 reads.Suppose that this power level is desirable target bit standard, then the input of this homophase (I) signal component just can be closed, and the input of this quadrature (Q) signal component can be opened once again.The uneven compensating module 215 of this digital amplitude can be adjusted the power level of this quadrature (Q) signal component input, use make the power detecting device can read simultaneously the equal-wattage position of these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component accurate (that is: desirable target bit standard).
In addition, this modulator 170 also can tend to the phase average deficiency.The uneven compensating module 220 of this digit phase can be used for the phase place of average these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component.These homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component are to activate simultaneously, and, the power level of these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component input is to reduce respectively 3dB (that is: cut half, using the power level that this power detecting device 175 is measured, only to equal the target power position of one of these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component signal component input accurate).This program is to set up reference power position standard, uses with the measurement of this power detecting device 175 and compares.If measuring the difference of power level at present, reference power position standard and power inductor 175 equal the dreamboat power level, then the input of these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component is quadrature, by this, real number and imaginary signal partly are to have phase quadrature.In response in the power level reading of the power detecting device 175 of artificial antenna conveyer 150, these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component be expression less than phase quadrature: the readout power position standard of this power detecting device 175 is accurate greater than the target power position.In addition, the input of these homophases (I) and quadrature (Q) signal component is big is expression in phase quadrature: the readout power position standard of this power detecting device 175 is accurate less than the target power position.Therefore, the uneven adjusting module 220 of this digit phase is in response to the differing of the Differential derivatization between target power position standard and power detecting device 175 readout power position standards, to use and to carry out the phase place adjustment.
The digital adjusting module of this digital baseband (DBB) compensation processor 130 can design according to various frameworks.Yet, it should be noted that low pass filter (LPF) 120,125 must be placed on this digital pre-distortion compensating module 205 fronts.Fig. 3 is in representative digit base band (DBB) compensation processor 130, the better enforcement framework 300 of modules.
Fig. 4 is the steps flow chart of the compensation for loss and damage program 400 of expression a kind of digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100.In step 405, open the beginning flag and be set as one, use this compensation for loss and damage program 400 of expression through beginning.In step 410, select the communication pattern of wanting.Communication pattern can be time division duplex (TDD), frequency division duplexing (FDD) or any other communication pattern, such as: the synchronous code division multiple access of timesharing (TDSCDMA), orthogonal frequency division multi-task (OFDM), code division multiple access 2,000 (CDMA2000) or like that.
In step 415, if select time division duplex (TDD) pattern, then activate time division duplex (TDD) pattern.In step 420, if select frequency division duplexing (FDD) pattern, then activate frequency division duplexing (FDD) pattern.In step 425, if select other communication pattern, then activate other communication pattern.In step 430, utilize the offset conditions of drift current inductor 185 these artificial antenna conveyers 150 of supervision, its expression: for instance, the electric current that power amplifier 165 extracts.
In step 435, utilize temperature inductor 180 to monitor the temperature of this artificial antenna conveyer 150 (or selection component).In step 440, read open the beginning flag with determine whether this program has been finished at least one cycle (that is: step 445,450,455).Be set as one open the beginning flag, as described in step 405, be expression: not yet finish at least one cycle.If open the beginning flag, in step 440, be set as one, then step 445 can be based on the temperature of temperature inductor 180 supervision and/or the drift current of drift current inductor 185 measurements, tabled look-up by the plural number of the internal memory 190 of tabling look-up and to select one in (LUT) and table look-up, use the pre-distortion compensated parameter of setting this digital pre-distortion compensating module.
The amplitude of this power amplifier 165 or phase place change (such as this power detecting device 175 supervisions) or the program person of digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100 and/or any other parameter that the designer wants to monitor all can utilize, use by one of selection in this (LUT) internal memory 190 of tabling look-up and table look-up.This (LUT) internal memory 190 of tabling look-up can be positioned over this digital pre-distortion compensating module 205, this controller 155 or this digital baseband (DBB) conveyer 100 Anywhere.
In step 450, utilize this digital DC (DC) migration module 210 constrain the carrier leak of these homophases (I) and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component (that is: direct current (DC) position standard).In step 455, utilize amplitude and the phase place of uneven compensating module 220 compensation these homophases (I) of the uneven compensating module 215 of this digital amplitude and this digit phase and the input of quadrature (Q) signal component uneven, as discussed previously.
After this compensation for loss and damage program 400 is finished one-period, that is: when completing steps 455, this opens the beginning flag, in step 460, can be set as zero, and, this compensation for loss and damage program 400 can be returned step 430 again, if step 465 is found the marked change of drift current and/or temperature, that is: the various parametric compensations of this artificial antenna conveyer 150 repeated, as described in step 445,450,455.
