Description

A kind of method of debugging radio frequency front-end module and redundant apparatus
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of communication, relate in particular to a kind of method and redundant apparatus of debugging radio frequency front-end module.
Background technology
In the process of mobile phone/data card design and test; the problem that occurs the not up to standard or index severe overweight of index through regular meeting; general reason is exactly the insufficient sensitivity of receiver; power output is not enough; GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications; global system for mobile communications) switch spectrum exceeds standard; TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division MultipleAccess; the code division multiple access that time-division is synchronous) ACLR (Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio; adjacent channel leakage compares) exceed standard etc., the reason that produces these problems is broadly divided into following several:
1, because on the signal path problem of certain device itself causes;
2, because PCB (Printed Circuit Board, printed circuit board) layout and cabling is unreasonable or via hole is improper causes.For the influence of these placement-and-routings, common way is exactly the matching network that level adds T type, double L-shaped or pi type before and after the device, and for different layouts and cabling, matching network is different, although be with a kind of design.The 3rd reason below Here it is;
3, the reason of circuit mismatch.
Cell Phone Design integrates all things in every way, and this is very unfavorable to RF (RadioFrequency, radio frequency) board design.Nowadays industry competition is very fierce, and everybody is managing with minimum size and the minimum integrated maximum function of cost.Be crowded together to simulation, numeral and RF circuitry in close, the space that is used for separating problem area separately is very little, and considers cost factor, and it is minimum that the circuit board number of plies is often reduced to again.The multipurpose chip can be integrated in multiple function on the very little nude film, and arrange very closely again between the pin in the connection external world, so RF, IF (Intermediate Frequency, intermediate frequency), analog and digital signal is very close, but they are incoherent on electric usually.This has just caused the good circuit that mates in theory to have very big deviation in real work, when particularly placement-and-routing is unreasonable, is easy to cause the mismatch of circuit, occurs various reflection losses on transmission line.
Radio frequency circuit board design therefore often described to be a kind of " black art ", but this viewpoint has only part correct owing to also have a lot of uncertainly in theory, and the RF board design also has the many criterions that can follow and should unheeded rule.
The dual-mode handset of current each famous brand of statistics all is the design of 2G+3G generally.All schemes all are at radio-frequency front-end a multimode switch to be set, a series of instructions by baseband controller make this switch switch to the needed mode of operation of system synchronously, on signal path, test the parameter S 11 of some matching network then, by changing the parameter of matching network, make the radio frequency link input and output mate optimum position at 50 ohm.
For transmitting branch, the matching network by the output of debugging power amplifier cooperates the smith circle diagram, makes power amplifier be operated in the maximal efficiency point; For receiving branch, the front and back matching network by the debugging receiving filter makes receiver be in desirable operating state, guarantees that the receiving branch loss is lower, and sensitivity is higher.
Common debugging is all carried out under non-signaling mode, that is to say, receiver/transmitter is operated in a kind of pattern always, such as long-time emission, need multimode switch to be in single mode of operation in this case, in general baseband controller is idle, has promptly lost the control to multimode switch.
The debugging of radio frequency and microwave equipment in most cases is passive debugging, main purpose is exactly the S11 of testing passive transmission link, the coupling that just guarantees transmission link is fine, guarantee that reflection is minimum, but in the general end product, the problem that on these passive link, always has a switching, such as the switching that in time-sharing work, receives emission, automatically the switching problem that has 2G network and 3G network search network the time, the electronic switch of this radio frequency is generally realized by baseband controller, but in independent debugging or passive debugging, this switch has just lost the control of baseband controller.
In the industry cycle, it is cumbersome to debug these matching networks, at first will control multimode switch, and common way is exactly on duplexer SWITCH1~SWITCH4 and connects 4 cables, external power supply, make control logic in requisition for mode of operation.This work is cumbersome, because the design of radio-frequency front-end is all very compact usually, bimodulus 7 radio-frequency front-end frequently as shown in Figure 1, all radiofrequency signals all will be passed through these multimode switch input and output, and control logic has just increased the electric capacity of a decoupling on each line, and the design encapsulation of the overwhelming majority all is 0201 encapsulation, to on this, weld 4 lines so, difficulty is very big, and is welded on the pin of electric capacity, and is also not firm.
