2. phase noise
As described above, in the circuit arrangement of present embodiment, being provided with digital I/F portions 30, processing unit 50 being capable of basis The data inputted from external device (ED) via digital I/F portions 30 carry out various signal transactings.As one, as described above, frequency control Data DFCI processed is transfused to everywhere from as the foreign frequency control data generating unit 200 of external device (ED) via digital I/F portions 30 Reason portion 50.Moreover, oscillator signal generative circuit 140 generates oscillator signal according to the frequency control data DFCQ after signal transacting OSCK, oscillator signal OSCK feeds back to foreign frequency control data generating unit 200 via the 2nd terminal group TG2 lead-out terminal, Thus, the PLL loops of outside PLL circuit are formd.
In addition, in the present embodiment, being provided with generation by the frequency after oscillator signal OSCK frequency of oscillation frequency multiplication Clock signal CK clock signal generating circuit 160.In such manner, it is possible to be shaken by clock signal generating circuit 160 according to constant The oscillator signal OSCK for swinging frequency generates the clock signal CK of arbitrary frequency, and is supplied to and is assembled with the electronics of circuit arrangement and sets Standby each circuit.If by taking the electronic equipment of Figure 33 described later base station as an example, clock signal generating circuit 160 can be passed through Clock signal CK1~CK5 is generated, and is supplied to each circuit for constituting base station.
In this case, frequency control data generating unit 40 (phase comparing section 41) or foreign frequency control data are passed through PLL circuit (hereinafter referred to as the 1st grade of PLL circuit) and low frequency that generating unit 200 and oscillator signal generative circuit 140 are constituted Generate oscillator signal OSCK to the reference signal RFCK Phase synchronizations of (such as 1Hz).Therefore, by being locked as low-frequency benchmark It is small but in high frequency that the oscillator signal OSCK of signal RFCK the 1st grade of PLL circuit generation turns into phase noise in low-frequency band The big signal of phase noise in band.Such as being superimposed with various noises in the reference signal RFCK from GPS, by In the influence of the noise etc., phase noise increases of the oscillator signal OSCK in high frequency band.
On the other hand, the 2nd grade of the PLL circuit realized by clock signal generating circuit 160 compares reference signal with frequency Clock signal CK is generated to oscillator signal OSCK Phase synchronizations high RFCK, therefore, it is possible to reduce the phase noise in high frequency band. Therefore, according to the PLL circuit by the 1st grade generates oscillator signal OSCK, by the 2nd grade of PLL circuit, (clock signal generates electricity Road 160) and the circuit arrangement of clock signal CK present embodiment is generated by oscillator signal OSCK, pass through the 1st grade of PLL circuit The phase noise in low-frequency band can be reduced, the phase noise in high frequency band can be reduced by the 2nd grade of PLL circuit.Therefore, Have the advantages that the small clean clock signal CK of phase noise can be being generated from the broadband of low-frequency band tremendously high frequency band.Example Such as in Figure 33 described later base station, receptivity in order to improve RF circuits 608 etc. is supplied to RF circuits 608, it is necessary to reduce Clock signal CK5 phase noise., can be in the wideband from low-frequency band tremendously high frequency band according to the circuit arrangement of present embodiment The low clock signal CK5 (=CK) of phase noise is generated in band and RF circuits 608 are supplied to, the raising of receptivity is realized Deng.
So, in the circuit arrangement of present embodiment, have the following advantages that:Come dual by using 2 grades of PLL circuits Ground reduces phase noise, can generate the few clean clock signal CK of noise.
But, in the present embodiment, due to being provided with digital I/F portions 30, thus, it is found that there are the following problems:By The communication noise that the digital I/F portions 30 are produced result in clock signal CK phase noise increase.For example, numeral I/F portions 30 Communication noise in terminal group TG1 is delivered to the terminal group TG3 of clock signal generating circuit 160, makes clock signal CK phase Noise increase.
For example, Fig. 3 is the figure for the phase noise example for showing clock signal CK.Transverse axis is frequency, and the longitudinal axis is phase noise.Figure 3 G1 is phase noise corresponding with the frequency of the communication clock in digital I/F portions 30.For example in digital I/F portions 30, string is used Row clock line and serial data line are communicated, but produce in clock signal CK the communication clock frequency of the serial time clock line The phase noise of (such as 100KHz).In addition, shown in the low G3 of the frequency band even in the high G2 of the frequency than G1, the frequency than G1 Frequency band in, also produce big phase noise.So, when the big phase noise shown in G1, G2, G3 is superimposed upon clock signal CK When middle, the problems such as receptivity for for example generating Figure 33 RF circuits 608 declines.
Moreover, when the noise of the terminal group TG2 generations by oscillating circuit 150 is delivered to clock signal generating circuit 160 Terminal group TG3, or on the contrary, when being delivered to terminal group TG2 by the terminal group TG3 noises produced, phase noise further increases Plus.

Here, the 1st~the 4th side SD1~end edges of the SD4 equivalent to the IC of circuit arrangement.1st~the 4th terminal area AT1~ AT4 is disposed on the region of the Rack of the 1st~the 4th side SD1~SD4 inner side.1st~the 4th terminal area AT1~AT4 Long side direction be that, along the 1st~the 4th side SD1~SD4 direction, the Rack is the 1st~the 4th terminal area AT1~AT4 Short side direction on width.
1st~the 4th terminal area AT1~AT4 is known as the region of so-called I/O regions (outer peripheral areas), except end Outside the pad groups such as subgroup TG1~TG4, I/O units can also be configured.I/O units are from the outside through by each terminal input signal Input I/O units, by signal via each terminal be output to outside output I/O units, input and output dual-purpose input and output I/O units etc..Terminal group TG1~TG4 each terminal and numeral I/F portions 30, oscillating circuit 150, clock signal generating circuit 160 It can connect, can also be connected not via I/O units via these I/O units etc. each circuit block.
In the present embodiment, as shown in figure 5, the terminal group TG1 in numeral I/F portions 30 is configured at along side SD1 end Subregion AT1, on the other hand, the terminal group TG2 of oscillating circuit 150 is configured at along the terminal with the SD2 when SD1 intersects Region AT2.Therefore, it is possible to make terminal group TG1 and TG2 distance i.e. L12 elongated, can effectively it suppress in digital I/F portions 30 The communication noise of generation is delivered to terminal group TG2.As a result, the oscillator signal that is added to caused by the communication noise can be reduced OSCK phase noise.Because oscillator signal OSCK phase noise is lowered, therefore, clock signal CK phase noise also drops It is low.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the terminal group TG1 in digital I/F portions 30 is configured at the terminal area along side SD1 AT1, on the other hand, the terminal group TG3 of clock signal generating circuit 160 are configured at along the end with the SD3 when SD1 is relative Subregion AT3.Therefore, it is possible to make terminal group TG1 and TG3 distance i.e. L13 elongated, can effectively it suppress in digital I/F portions 30 The communication noise of middle generation is delivered to terminal group TG3.As a result, the clock letter that is added to caused by the communication noise can be reduced Number CK phase noise.

In addition, in the present embodiment, as oscillator XTAL, the oscillator of the constant temperature groove profile with thermostat can be used. In this case, in Figure 5, the 4th terminal group TG4 configurations of the thermostat control terminal of the oscillator XTAL comprising constant temperature groove profile In the 4th terminal area AT4 along the 4th side SD4.For example, the connection of the lead-out terminal, temperature sensor of heater control voltage The thermostat control terminal such as terminal is configured at the 4th terminal area AT4 as the 4th terminal group TG4.
So, used in digital I/F portions 30, oscillating circuit 150 is used, the 1st of clock signal generating circuit 160 the, the 2nd, the 3rd Terminal group TG1, TG2, TG3 are respectively arranged at the 1st, the 2nd, in the case of the 3rd terminal area AT1, AT2, AT3, can be effectively sharp With remaining 4th terminal area AT4, configuration includes the 4th terminal group TG4 of thermostat control terminal.I.e. by the 1st, 2nd, the 3rd terminal area AT1, AT2, AT3 configurations the 1st, the 2nd, the 3rd terminal group TG1, TG2, TG3, phase can be reduced as described above Position noise, and by configuring the 4th terminal group TG4 for including thermostat control terminal in remaining 4th terminal area AT4, The oscillator XTAL of constant temperature groove profile thermostat control can be realized.
Moreover, the circuit arrangement of present embodiment, which is included, is connected with the 4th terminal group TG4 thermostat control terminal simultaneously And carry out the thermostat control circuit 190 of the oscillator XTAL of constant temperature groove profile thermostat control.And in Figure 5, the thermostat Control circuit 190 is configured at the 4th terminal area AT4 the 4th direction DR4 sides.

In addition, in Figure 5, oscillating circuit 150 is configured between thermostat control circuit 190 and the 2nd terminal area AT2. For example in the 4th terminal area AT4 the 4th direction DR4 sides configuration thermostat control circuit 190, circuit 190 is controlled in thermostat 4th direction DR4 sides configures oscillating circuit 150, and the 2nd terminal area AT2 is set in the 4th direction DR4 sides of oscillating circuit 150.
Thereby, it is possible to efficient, flexible with the region between the 4th terminal area AT4 and the 2nd terminal area AT2, to constant temperature Groove controls circuit 190 to be laid out configuration with oscillating circuit 150.Therefore, it is possible to short path connection thermostat control circuit 190 With the 4th terminal group TG4, and oscillating circuit 150 is being connected and while the 2nd terminal group TG2 with short path, in the 4th terminal region In region between domain AT4 and the 2nd terminal area AT2, efficiently layout configuration thermostat controls circuit 190 and oscillating circuit 150.Therefore, it is possible to take into account realize the reduction of phase noise and the downsizing of the layout area of circuit arrangement.
In addition, in the present embodiment, processing unit 50 (processor) carries out handling estimation frequency control by Kalman filtering The processing of data DFCI processed true value, and according to the true value estimated, carry out frequency control data DFCI age correction.
So, if handling estimation frequency control data DFCI true value by Kalman filtering, and according to estimating True value carries out age correction, then can greatly improve the precision of age correction.That is, it can realize and consider observation noise, system The age correction of the influence of noise.
More specifically, processing unit 50 preserves the detection moment with keeping pattern in the case where detecting holding pattern True value at the time of correspondence.The detection moment of pattern can be to maintain at the time of preserving the true value in itself or the moment At the time of before etc..Moreover, processing unit 50 is aging after correction by carrying out the calculation process based on the true value preserved, generation Frequency control data DFCQ.The frequency control data DFCQ of generation is output to oscillator signal generative circuit 140.The aging school The generation processing of frequency control data DFCQ after just is performed by age correction portion 56.
For example during usual action, 50 pairs of frequency controls based on the phase comparative result in phase comparing section 41 of processing unit Data DFCI processed or the frequency control data DFCI inputted from foreign frequency control data generating unit 200 carry out such as temperature and mended The signal transactings such as processing are repaid, the frequency control data DFCQ after signal transacting is output to oscillator signal generative circuit 140.Vibration Signal generating circuit 140 generates oscillator signal OSCK using frequency control data DFCQ and oscillator XTAL from processing unit 50, And it is output to frequency control data generating unit 40 (phase comparing section 41) or foreign frequency control data generating unit 200.Thus, Form by frequency control data generating unit 40 (phase comparing section 41) or foreign frequency control data generating unit 200 and vibration The loop for the PLL circuit that signal generating circuit 140 is constituted, can be generated and the phase locked accurate vibrations of reference signal RFCK Signal.
And in the present embodiment, interior during the usual action before detecting holding pattern, processing unit 50 Kalman filtering portion 54 also acted, to frequency control data DFCI perform Kalman filtering processing.
That is, it is handled as follows:Estimation is handled for frequency control data DFCI observation by Kalman filtering True value.
When detecting holding pattern, true value at the time of will be corresponding with the detection moment for keeping pattern is saved in processing unit In 50.Specifically, age correction portion 56 preserves the true value.Moreover, age correction portion 56 is true based on what is preserved by carrying out Frequency control data DFCQ after the calculation process of value, generation age correction.
So, due to carrying out age correction according to true value of the detection moment with keeping pattern at the time of corresponding, accordingly, it is capable to Enough increase substantially the precision of age correction.That is, the aging school for the influence for considering observation noise and system noise can be realized Just.
In addition, processing unit 50 (is compensated and led by aging by the calculation process carried out to the true value preserved plus corrected value The calculation process of the frequency change of cause), generate the frequency control data DFCQ after age correction.For example by each defined Corrected value corresponding with rate of ageing (gradient of aging, aging coefficient) (is eliminated the frequency caused by rate of ageing by the moment successively Rate change corrected value) and with keep pattern detection the moment it is corresponding at the time of true value be added, generate age correction after frequency Rate control data DFCQ.In addition, the addition processing of present embodiment is subtraction process comprising the processing plus negative value.
It is AC (k) that time step k corrected value, which is for example set, as the frequency control data after D (k), time step k age correction. In this case, processing unit 50 obtains the FREQUENCY CONTROL after time step k+1 age correction by AC (k+1)=AC (k)+D (k) Data AC (k+1).Processing unit 50 carries out the corrected value D (k) of each such time step addition processing, until from the pattern of holding Untill (moment being released at the time of recovery).
In addition, processing unit 50 true value is added the calculation process of the corrected value after filtering process.For example, to corrected value D (k) carries out the filtering process such as low-pass filtering treatment, true value is added successively the fortune of the corrected value D ' (k) after filtering process Calculation is handled.Specifically, AC (k+1)=AC (k)+D ' (k) calculation process is carried out.
In addition, processing unit 50 handled according to Kalman filtering in observation residual error, obtain corrected value.For example, processing unit 50 During before detecting holding pattern, the processing of the corrected value according to observation residual error estimation age correction is carried out.For example exist If observing residual error in the case of ek, by carrying out D (k)=D (k-1)+Eek processing, to estimate corrected value D (k).Here E E.g. constant, but it is also possible to substitute constant E, and use kalman gain.Moreover, preserving the detection moment pair with keeping pattern Corrected value at the time of answering, the calculation process that the corrected value for being about to preserve of going forward side by side is added with true value, is thus generated after age correction Frequency control data DFCQ.

As the countermeasure for suppressing such variation of frequency of oscillation caused by aging, there is following method:Going out It is initial aged during implementing to make oscillator operation certain before goods, make shipment again after frequency of oscillation initial shifts.But, for It is required that the purposes of high frequency stability, it is inadequate only to take such initial aged countermeasure, and expected compensation is caused by aging Frequency of oscillation variation age correction.
In addition, in the case where oscillator is used as into the reference signal source of base station, there is so-called holding pattern Problem.For example in a base station, by using PLL circuit by the oscillator signal (output signal) of oscillator and from GPS or network Reference signal it is synchronous, suppress frequency variation.But, disappear when reference signal of the generation from GPS or network (internet) turns into During the holding pattern of mistake or exception, it is impossible to obtain for synchronous reference signal.
When producing such holding pattern, the oscillator signal produced by the self-oscillation of oscillator turns into the base of base station Calibration signal source.It is therefore desirable to following holding mode performance:The moment is being produced to from keeping pattern recovery from the pattern of holding During holding pattern untill moment (releasing the moment), suppress the variation of the frequency of oscillation caused by the self-oscillation of oscillator.
But, as described above, because there is the degree that can not ignore caused by aging in the frequency of oscillation of oscillator Change, therefore, because this and presence can not realize the problem of high holding mode performance.The pattern phase is kept such as at 24 hours In, in the case where defining the frequency departure (Δ f/f) allowed, if there is caused by aging frequency of oscillation it is larger Change, then can not meet the regulation of the tolerance frequency deviation.
For example as base station and the communication mode of communication terminal, it is proposed that FDD (Frequency Division Duplex: FDD), TDD (Time Division Duplex:Time division duplex) etc. various modes.Moreover, in TDD modes, it is up With descending use identical frequency according to time division way transceiving data, when being set with protection between distributing to the time slot of each equipment Between.Therefore, in order to realize appropriate communication, it is necessary to carry out timing synchronization in each equipment, it is desirable to there is accurately absolute moment Timing.
Figure 20 B1 represent to generate holding pattern in the case of preferable frequency of oscillation aging characteristic.The opposing party Face, B2 (dotted line) represents the characteristic for causing frequency of oscillation to change due to aging.B3 is the change of the frequency of oscillation caused by aging Dynamic amplitude.In addition, Figure 21 B4, which represents to generate, is used for the FREQUENCY CONTROL electricity close to B1 characteristic in the case of holding pattern The passage of pressure.On the other hand, FREQUENCY CONTROL electricity B5 (dotted line) is represented at the time of generating reference signal and disappearing or be abnormal Press as constant state.
In order to enter to exercise the correction that preferable characteristic shown in characteristic and B1 shown in Figure 20 B2 is close, aging school is carried out Just.If for example, by age correction, and changing frequency control voltage as shown in Figure 21 B4, then it can enter to exercise The correction of preferable characteristic shown in characteristic close to B1 shown in Figure 20 B2, if for example, improve correction accuracy, can be by Characteristic correction shown in B2 is the preferable characteristic shown in B1.On the other hand, aging is not carried out shown in the B5 such as Figure 21 In the case of correction, as shown in Figure 20 B2, during holding pattern, frequency of oscillation changes, if for example, to keeping mould The requirement specification of formula performance is the B1 shown in Figure 20, then can not meet the requirement.
The holding mould of the offset (total amount) of the time of such as variation based on frequency of oscillation during expression holding pattern Formula time θtotIt can be represented as following formula (1).
Here, T1Represent the elapsed time of the aging caused by holding pattern.f0It is nominal oscillation frequency, Δ f/f0It is frequency Rate deviation.In above formula (1), T1×f0Total clock number is represented, (Δ f/f0)×(1/f0) represent 1 clock at the time of skew Amount.Moreover, frequency deviation f/f0Holding mode time θ can be usedtotWith elapsed time T1, represented as above formula (2).
Here, suppose that frequency deviation f/f0Relative to the elapsed time in 1 function with constant slope variation.At this In the case of, with elapsed time T1It is elongated, keep mode time θtotIn 2 functions it is elongated.
For example, in the case of TDD modes, in order to prevent from setting the Time Slot Overlap of guard time, it is desirable to keep pattern Time is such as θtotThe μ s of < 1.5.Therefore, from above formula (2), the frequency deviation f/f allowed as oscillator0, it is desirable to Very small value.Especially, elapsed time T1It is longer, the smaller value of the tolerance frequency deviation requirement.For example, as from holding From the generation moment of pattern, to using time of the upkeep operation untill at the time of keeping pattern recovery exemplified by time for assuming Such as T1In the case of=24 is small, tolerance frequency deviation is used as, it is desirable to very small value.It is additionally, since in frequency deviation f/f0 In the frequency departure comprising such as temperature-independent and the frequency departure caused by aging, therefore, in order to meet above-mentioned requirements, it is necessary to Very high-precision age correction.
8. the age correction for having used Kalman filtering to handle
In the present embodiment, the burn-in correction method handled using Kalman filtering is employed.Specifically, in this reality Apply in mode, during before detecting holding pattern, estimation is handled by Kalman filtering and (shaken for frequency control data Swing frequency) observation true value.Moreover, in the case where detecting holding pattern, preserve and detect holding pattern when The true value at (time point) at the time of carving correspondence, and the calculation process based on the true value preserved is carried out, hereby it is achieved that aging school Just.
Figure 22 is the figure for the measurement result example for showing the variation of frequency of oscillation caused by aging.Transverse axis is the elapsed time (ageing time), the longitudinal axis is frequency departure (the Δ f/f of frequency of oscillation0).As shown in Figure 22 C1, in the measurement as observation There is deviation big as caused by system noise, observation noise in value.Also included as caused by environment temperature partially in the deviation Difference.
When so existing in the measurement under the situation of big deviation, in order to correctly obtain true value, in present embodiment In, handled based on Kalman filtering the state estimation of (such as linear Kalman filter processing).
Figure 23 shows the state-space model of time series, the discrete time state equation formula of the model by following formula (3), (4) equation of state, observation equation are provided.
X (k+1)=Ax (k)+v (k) (3)
Y (k)=x (k)+w (k) (4)
X (k) is moment k state, and y (k) is observation.V (k) is system noise, and w (k) is observation noise, and A is system Matrix.In the case where x (k) is frequency of oscillation (frequency control data), A is for example equivalent to rate of ageing (aging coefficient).Always Change rate representation frequency of oscillation relative to the rate of change during process.
For example, generating holding pattern at the time of being set to shown in the C2 in Figure 22.In this case, according to reference signal Time of day x (k) at the time of the C2 that RFCK is interrupted and rate of ageing (A) execution equivalent to the slope shown in Figure 22 C3 Age correction.Specifically, as reducing the compensation (correction) changed as frequency caused by the rate of ageing shown in C3, example Such as to eliminate the corrected value that (counteractings) frequency changes, the true value of the frequency of oscillation (frequency control data) at the time of entering to exercise C2 The age correction that x (k) changes successively.That is, the frequency change under the rate of ageing shown in Figure 20 B2 is eliminated, so as to B1 The corrected value of shown preferable characteristic changes true value x (k).So, for example the feelings during holding pattern for 24 hours Under condition, Figure 22 of variation as the frequency of oscillation after 24 hours FDV can be compensated by age correction.
Here, include and become as caused by temperature change in the variation of frequency of oscillation (frequency departure) shown in the C1 in Figure 22 The dynamic and variation as caused by aging.Therefore, in the present embodiment, for example by using the constant temperature slot structure with thermostat Oscillator (OCXO), the variation of the frequency of oscillation as caused by temperature change is suppressed to Min..In addition, using Fig. 2's The grade of temperature sensor 10 performs the temperature-compensating processing of the variation of reduction frequency of oscillation as caused by temperature change.
Moreover, during PLL circuit (internal PLL circuit, outside PLL circuit) is synchronous with reference signal RFCK (generally During action) in, monitoring frequency control data (FREQUENCY CONTROL code) is obtained after removal error (system noise, observation noise) True value, and it is stored in register.Moreover, in the disappearance due to reference signal RFCK or lock that is abnormal and relieving PLL circuit In the case of fixed, held according to the true value (for the true value of the observation of frequency control data) preserved at the time of latch-release Row age correction.For example, as reduce by Figure 22 C3 slope be rate of ageing caused by frequency change compensation, enter The true value of frequency control data of the row to being preserved adds the processing for the corrected value for for example eliminating frequency change successively, thus, Generate holding pattern during self-oscillation when frequency control data DFCQ, make oscillator XTAL vibrate.So, due to can be with Minimal error is obtained into true value at the time of holding pattern, and performs age correction, will be changed therefore, it is possible to realize by aging Caused harmful effect is suppressed to minimal holding mode performance.
9. the structure of processing unit
Figure 24 shows the detailed construction example of processing unit 50.As shown in figure 24, processing unit 50 includes Kalman filtering portion 54, old Change correction unit 56, temperature compensation division 58, selector 62,63, adder 65.
The input of Kalman filtering portion 54 has frequency control data DFCI (to eliminate the FREQUENCY CONTROL number of environmental turbulence composition According to), perform Kalman filtering processing.Moreover, output is estimated equivalent to the posteriority that the true value estimated is handled by Kalman filtering Evaluation x^ (k).In addition, being that the symbol " ^ " of the hat of estimate is properly arranged to 2 characters by expression in this manual To be recorded.
Kalman filtering processing refers to following processing:Made an uproar assuming that being included in the variable of observation and the state for representing system Sound (error), uses the optimum state for carrying out estimating system from the past to the observation obtained now.Specifically, sight is repeated Survey and update (observation process) and time renewal (prediction process), estimated state.Observation renewal is to be updated using observation with the time Result update the process of kalman gain, estimate, error covariance.Time is updated the result for being to be updated using observation and come Predict estimate, the process of error covariance of subsequent time.In addition, in the present embodiment, primarily illustrating using linear The method of Kalman filtering processing, but also can be using EKF processing.Kalman on present embodiment filters The details of ripple processing, will be described later.
Age correction portion 56 inputs posterior estimate x^ (k) and corrected value D ' (k) from Kalman filtering portion 54.Moreover, logical The calculation process for carrying out that corrected value D ' (k) is added to the posterior estimate x^ (k) of the true value equivalent to frequency control data is crossed, it is raw It is AC (k) into the frequency control data after age correction.Here D ' (k) is the correction (after low-pass filtering treatment) after filtering process Value D (k).That is, setting time step k, (moment k) corrected value (corrected value after filtering process) is D ' (k), time step k aging In the case that frequency control data after correction is AC (k), age correction portion 56 is obtained by AC (k+1)=AC (k)+D ' (k) Frequency control data AC (k+1) after time step k+1 (moment k+1) age correction.
The input temp of temperature compensation division 58 detects data DTD, carries out temperature-compensating processing, generates for making frequency of oscillation phase Stationary temperature offset data TCODE (temperature-compensating code) is remained for temperature change.
The temperature characterisitic of frequency of oscillation has relatively large deviation according to the sample of each product.Therefore, at product (oscillator) Manufacture, shipment when inspection operation in, measure frequency of oscillation temperature characterisitic and temperature detection number corresponding with environment temperature According to variation characteristic.And the coefficient A of the multinomial (approximate function) of following formula (5) is obtained according to measurement result0~A5, will ask The coefficient A obtained0~A5Information be written in Fig. 2 storage part 34 (nonvolatile memory) and stored.
TCODE=A5·X5+A4·X4+A3·X3+A2·X2+A1·X+A0···(5)
In above formula (5), X is equivalent to the temperature detection data DTD (A/D conversion values) obtained by A/D converter sections 20.Due to The temperature detection data DTD changed relative to environment temperature change is also measured, therefore, passes through the multinomial institute of above formula (5) Environment temperature, can be mapped by the approximate function of expression with frequency of oscillation.Temperature compensation division 58 is read from storage part 34 Number A0~A5Information, according to coefficient A0~A5The calculation process of above formula (5) is carried out with temperature detection data DTD (=X), it is raw Into temperature compensation data TCODE (temperature-compensating code).Thereby, it is possible to realize for making frequency of oscillation relative to the change of environment temperature Change remains stationary temperature compensation deals.
Selector 62,63 is selected " 1 " in the case where the logic level of selection terminal S input signal is " 1 " (effective) The input signal of the terminal of side, and exported as output signal.In addition, the logic level of the input signal in selection terminal S In the case of " 0 " (invalid), the input signal of the terminal of " 0 " side is selected, and is exported as output signal.
Signal KFEN is the enable signal of Kalman filtering processing.Kalman filtering portion 54 is logic level in signal KFEN Kalman filtering processing is performed in the case of " 1 " (following, to be abbreviated as " 1 ").Signal PLLLOCK be PLL circuit for locking shape Turn into the signal of " 1 " in the case of state.Signal HOLDOVER is to turn into " 1 " during the holding pattern of holding pattern is detected Signal.
Signal TCEN is the enable signal of temperature-compensating processing.Hereinafter, mainly using signal TCEN as " 1 " and selector 63 Illustrated in case of the input signal for selecting " 1 " side.In addition, signal KFEN is also " 1 ".
During usual action, because signal HOLDOVER is that ((following, to be abbreviated as " 0 ") therefore, is selected logic level " 0 " Select the frequency control data DFCI that device 62 selects " 0 " terminals side.Moreover, being added by 65 couples of frequency control data DFCI of adder Upper temperature compensation data TCODE, the frequency control data DFCQ after temperature-compensating processing are output to the oscillator signal life of rear class Into circuit 140.
On the other hand, during holding pattern, signal HOLDOVER is " 1 ", and selector 62 selects the AC of " 1 " terminals side (k).AC (k) is the frequency control data after age correction.
Figure 25 is the truth table for the action for illustrating Kalman filtering portion 54.All it is the feelings of " 1 " in signal PLLLOCK, KFEN Under condition, Kalman filtering portion 54 performs true value estimation processing (Kalman filtering processing).That is, PLL electricity in during usual action In the case that road (PLL circuit either internally or externally) is in the lock state, the lasting FREQUENCY CONTROL number carried out as observation Handled according to DFCI true value estimation.
Moreover, in the state as the pattern of holding, the locking of PLL circuit is released, so that signal PLLLOCK is the feelings of " 0 " Under condition, Kalman filtering portion 54 keeps the output state of last time.For example in fig. 24, preserve and continue to export the inspection of holding pattern The value gone out the moment under (at the time of the latch-release of PLL circuit), is used as the posteriority for the true value for being estimated as frequency control data DFCI Estimate x^ (k) and age correction corrected value D ' (k).
Age correction portion 56 during holding pattern in, using the posterior estimate x^ (k) from Kalman filtering portion 54, Corrected value D ' (k) carries out age correction.Specifically, posterior estimate x^ (k), the correction at the detection moment of holding pattern are preserved Value D ' (k), carries out age correction.
In addition, in fig. 24, it (is inventionbroadly environment that input, which eliminates temperature change composition, in Kalman filtering portion 54 Variance components) and temperature change composition in aging variance components frequency control data DFCI.54 pairs of Kalman filtering portion is gone Except the frequency control data DFCI of temperature change composition (environmental turbulence composition) carries out Kalman filtering processing, estimation is for frequency Rate control data DFCI true value.That is, posterior estimate x^ (k) is obtained.Moreover, age correction portion 56 is according to the true value estimated That is posterior estimate x^ (k) carries out age correction.More specifically, according to the posterior estimate x^ from Kalman filtering portion 54 (k) the frequency control data AC (k) after age correction is obtained with corrected value D ' (k).Moreover, the FREQUENCY CONTROL number after age correction Adder 65 is input to via selector 62 according to i.e. AC (k), adder 65 carries out adding temperature compensation data TCODE to AC (k) The processing of (the compensation data of environmental turbulence composition).
For example, as shown in Figure 26 schematic diagram, when temperature change, as shown in E1, frequency control data is also corresponding Ground changes.Therefore, when carrying out Kalman filtering using the frequency control data changed as E1 along with temperature change During processing, the true value at holding pattern detection moment also produces fluctuation.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the frequency control data for eliminating temperature change composition is obtained, and is input to karr Graceful filtering part 54.That is, by the temperature change eliminated in temperature change composition (environmental turbulence composition) and aging variance components into The frequency control data divided is input to Kalman filtering portion 54.That is, the frequency control data shown in input Figure 26 E2.E2 frequency Rate control data is eliminates the frequency control data that temperature change composition remains aging variance components.
Kalman filtering portion 54 to so eliminating temperature change composition by remaining the frequencies of aging variance components Control data DFCI carries out Kalman filtering processing, obtains the correction of the posterior estimate x^ (k) for being estimated true value, age correction Value D ' (k).Moreover, the true value i.e. posterior estimate x^ (k), the corrected value D ' (k) that will be estimated at the detection moment of the pattern of holding Age correction portion 56 is saved in, for performing age correction.
The processing plus temperature compensation data TCODE is for example carried out by adder 65, frequency control data DFCQ turns into By the frequency control data after temperature-compensating.Therefore, input has frequency control data DFCQ oscillator signal generative circuit 140 defeated The oscillator signal OSCK of the frequency of oscillation gone out after temperature-compensating.Therefore, PLL is constituted together with the oscillator signal generative circuit 140 Fig. 2 of circuit (or the foreign frequency control data generating unit 200 of frequency control data generating unit 40.It is same below) will be such as figure Eliminating the frequency control data DFCI after temperature change composition is supplied to processing unit 50 like that shown in 26 E2.Moreover, as schemed Shown in 26 E2, remain and change with the elapsed time in the frequency control data DFCI for eliminating the temperature change composition Aging variance components.Therefore, 54 pairs of the Kalman filtering portion of processing unit 50 remains the FREQUENCY CONTROL of the aging variance components Data DFCI carries out Kalman filtering processing, if the result that age correction portion 56 is handled according to Kalman filtering carries out aging school Just, then high-precision age correction can be realized.
In addition, as Figure 24 variation, can be without the place plus temperature compensation data TCODE in adder 65 Reason, and the calculation process of the temperature change composition (environmental turbulence composition) for removing frequency control data DFCI is carried out, and will Frequency control data DFCI after calculation process is input to Kalman filtering portion 54.For example omit Figure 17 adder 65 and choosing The structure of device 63 is selected, the prime in Kalman filtering portion 54 is set subtracts temperature compensation data from frequency control data DFCI TCODE subtracter, Kalman filtering portion 54 is input to by the output of the subtracter.In addition, in age correction portion 56 and selection The adder that the output in age correction portion 56 is added with temperature compensation data TCODE is set between device 62, by the defeated of adder Go out to be input to the terminal of " 1 " side of selector 62.By such structure, also temperature change composition can will be eliminated and only residual The frequency control data DFCI for leaving aging variance components is input to Kalman filtering portion 54.
Figure 27 shows the detailed construction example in age correction portion 56.During usual action, signal HOLDOVER is " 0 ", therefore, selection " 0 " terminals side of selector 360,361.Thus, in during usual action, transported by Kalman filtering portion 54 Posterior estimate x^ (k), the corrected value D ' (k) (corrected value after filtering process) calculated be saved in respectively register 350, 351。
When detecting holding pattern, so that when signal HOLDOVER is " 1 ", selector 360,361 selects " 1 " terminals side. Thus, during selector 361 is during holding pattern, lasting output is stored in register 351 at the detection moment of the pattern of holding Corrected value D ' (k).
Moreover, adder 340 is handled as follows:According to each time step, to being stored at the detection moment of the pattern of holding The posterior estimate x^ (k) of register 350 is successively plus the corrected value D ' for being stored in register 351 and being exported from selector 361 (k) (corrected value).Hereby it is achieved that the age correction shown in following formula (6).
AC (k+1)=AC (k)+D ' (k) (6)
That is, it is handled as follows to realize age correction:To the true value i.e. Posterior estimator preserved at the time of Figure 22 C2 Value x^ (k) adds corrected value D ' (k) successively, and the corrected value D ' (k) is used to eliminate the aging of (compensation) by the slope equivalent to C3 Frequency changes caused by speed.
10. Kalman filtering processing
Next, the details to the Kalman filtering processing of present embodiment are illustrated.The model of Kalman filtering Equation of state, observation equation are represented as following formula (7), (8).
X (k+1)=Ax (k)+v (k) (7)
Y (k)=CT+x(k)+w(k)···(8)
K is denoted as the time step of discrete time.X (k) is time step k (state of moment k) system, e.g. n The vector of dimension.A is referred to as sytem matrix.Specifically, A is n × n matrix, there will be no in the case of system noise when The state relation of the state of spacer step k system and time step k+1 system gets up.V (k) is system noise.Y (k) is observation, W (k) is observation noise.C is that observed differential is vectorial (n dimensions), and T represents transposed matrix.
In the Kalman filtering processing of above formula (7), the model of (8), the processing of following formula (9)~(13) is carried out, estimation is true Value.
P-(k)=AP (k-1) AT+v(k)···(10)
P (k)=(1-G (k) CT)·P-(k)···(13)
x^(k):Posterior estimate
x^-(k):Priori estimates
P(k):Posteriority covariance
P-(k):Priori covariance
G(k):Kalman gain
Above formula (9), (10) are the formulas for the time updating (prediction process), and above formula (11)~(13) are that observation updates (observation Process) formula.Often advance 1 as the time step k of discrete time, then carry out the time of 1 Kalman filtering processing more Newly (formula (9), (10)) and observation update (formula (11)~(13)).
X^ (k), x^ (k-1) are the posterior estimates of time step k, k-1 Kalman filtering processing.x^-(k) it is to be seen The priori estimates predicted before measured value.P (k) is the posteriority covariance of Kalman filtering processing, P-(k) be obtain observation it The priori covariance of preceding prediction.G (k) is kalman gain.
In Kalman filtering processing, in observation updates, kalman gain G (k) is obtained by above formula (11).In addition, According to observation y (k), by above formula (12), posterior estimate x^ (k) is updated.In addition, by above formula (13), updating error Posteriority covariance P (k).
In addition, in Kalman filtering processing, in the time updates, such as shown in above formula (9), after time step k-1 Estimate x^ (k-1) and sytem matrix A is tested, prediction future time walks k priori estimates x^-(k).In addition, such as above formula (10) It is shown, according to time step k-1 posteriority covariance P (k-1), sytem matrix A, system noise v (k), prediction future time step k's Priori covariance P-(k)。
In addition, when the Kalman filtering processing of above formula to be performed (9)~(13), the processing load mistake of processing unit 50 sometimes Greatly, the large-scale of circuit arrangement is caused.For example for the x^ for obtaining above formula (9)-(k)=Ax^ (k-1) A is, it is necessary to expansion card Kalman Filtering processing.Moreover, the processing load of EKF processing is weighed very much, when will be by that can be extended karr The hardware of graceful filtering process realizes during processing unit 50 that the circuit area of processing unit 50 easily becomes very large.Therefore, when internal It is placed in the circuit arrangement of oscillator to be strongly required under the situation of miniaturization, is inappropriate.On the other hand, when use fixed value When scalar value is as sytem matrix A, realize that difficulty during appropriate age correction is improved.
Therefore, as solution when needing to avoid such situation, in the present embodiment, above formula (9) are not passed through ~(13), and Kalman filtering is realized by the processing based on following formula (14)~(19) and is handled.That is, (the Kalman of processing unit 50 Filtering part 54) perform the Kalman filtering processing based on following formula (14)~(19).
P-(k)=P (k-1)+v (k) (15)
P (k)=(1-G (k)) P-(k)···(18)
In addition, be frequency control data as the x (k) of the object of the estimation processing of true value in the present embodiment, observation Value y (k) is also frequency control data, therefore, C=1.Further, since A scalar value is infinitely close to 1, therefore, it is possible to use Above formula (15) substitutes above formula (10).
As described above, compared with the situation for being used as Kalman filtering processing is handled using EKF, at this In the Kalman filtering processing of embodiment, such as shown in above formula (14), passage time step k-1 posterior estimate x^ (k-1) with Corrected value D (k-1) addition handles to obtain time k priori estimates x^-(k).It therefore, there is no need to use spreading kalman Filtering process is excellent in terms of realizing that the mitigation of processing load of processing unit 50, the increase of circuit scale suppress.
In the present embodiment, above formula (14) is exported by the deformation of following formulas.
For example above formula (20) can be deformed as above formula (21).Here, because (A-1) of above formula (21) is very small Number, therefore, such as shown in above formula (22), (23), can use (A-1) x^ (k-1) being replaced into (A-1) F0It is approximate.So Afterwards, by (A-1) F0It is replaced into corrected value D (k-1).
And as shown in above formula (19), when being updated from time step k-1 to time step k time, it is corrected value D (k) =D (k-1)+E (y (k)-x^-(k))=D (k-1)+Eek renewal processing.Here, ek=y (k)-x^-(k) it is referred to as card Observation residual error in Kalman Filtering processing.In addition, E is constant.In addition, can also substitute constant E, and implement to increase using Kalman The deformation of beneficial G (k).I.e., it is possible to be D (k)=D (k-1)+G (k) ek.
So, in formula (19), set observation residual error be E as ek, constant in the case of, pass through D (k)=D (k-1)+E Ek obtains corrected value D (k).In such manner, it is possible to carry out reflecting observation residual error ek, the corrected value D (k) in Kalman filtering processing Renewal processing.
As described above, in the present embodiment, such as shown in above formula (14), the priori that processing unit 50 is handled in Kalman filtering In the renewal processing (time renewal) of estimate, it is handled as follows:By the posterior estimate x^ (k-1) at the time of last time with Corrected value D (k-1) addition processing, priori estimates x^ at the time of obtaining this-(k).Moreover, at according to Kalman filtering The result of reason, carries out the age correction of frequency control data.That is, carry out last time at the time of be time step k-1 posterior estimate x ^ (k-1) is added processing with corrected value D's (k-1), passes through x^-(k)=x^ (k-1)+D (k-1) i.e. times at the time of obtain this Walk k priori estimates x^-(k)。
Moreover, the result (true value, corrected value) that is handled according to the Kalman filtering of processing unit 50 (age correction portion 56) come Carry out age correction.That is, time step k corrected value is being set as the frequency after D (k) (or D ' (k)), time step k age correction In the case that rate control data is AC (k), time step k is obtained by AC (k+1)=AC (k)+D (k) (or AC (k)+D ' (k)) Frequency control data AC (k+1) after+1 age correction.
In addition, processing unit 50 is filtered as shown in above formula (19) according to the corrected value D (k-1) at the time of last time and Kalman Observation residual error ek in ripple processing, the corrected value D (k) at the time of obtaining this.For example, by carrying out school at the time of to last time The processing that the value based on observation residual error is Eek (or G (k) ek), school at the time of obtaining this are added on the occasion of D (k-1) On the occasion of D (k).Specifically, according to last time it is during time step k-1 corrected value D (k-1) and Kalman filtering is handled at the time of Observe residual error ek, i.e. time step k corrected value D (k) at the time of obtaining this.For example, being E setting observation residual error as ek, constant In the case of, corrected value D (k) is obtained by D (k)=D (k-1)+Eek.
For example in the present embodiment, as illustrated in Figure 26, the environmental turbulences such as temperature change composition information are obtained Composition information, and using the environmental turbulence composition information obtained, acquirement is eliminated in environmental turbulence composition and aging variance components Environmental turbulence composition frequency control data.Here, environmental turbulence composition information can be power supply voltage variation composition, air pressure Variance components or gravity variance components etc..Then, according to the frequency control data for eliminating environmental turbulence composition, aging is carried out Correction.Specifically, if environmental turbulence composition is temperature.According to temperature detection data DTD, obtain and believe as environmental turbulence composition The temperature change composition information of breath, temperature detection data DTD is by from the work for obtaining environmental turbulence composition information Obtained for the temperature detection voltage VTD of Fig. 2 of environmental turbulence information acquiring section temperature sensor 10.Moreover, using taking The temperature change composition information obtained, obtains the frequency control data for eliminating temperature change composition.Such as Figure 24 temperature-compensating Portion 58 obtains temperature compensation data TCODE, and the addition for carrying out temperature compensation data TCODE by adder 65 is handled, and thus, is gone Except temperature change composition frequency control data DFCI from frequency control data generating unit 40 (or foreign frequency control data life Into portion 200) input, and obtained by processing unit 50.That is, as shown in Figure 26 E2, acquirement eliminates temperature change composition and remained There is the frequency control data DFCI of aging variance components, and be input to Kalman filtering portion 54.
In addition, eliminating the frequency control data of environmental turbulence composition except comprising completely eliminated environmental turbulence composition Outside the frequency control data of appropriate state, there is the environmental turbulence for the degree that can ignore that also in frequency control data The frequency control data of the state of composition.
For example, can be by detecting environmental turbulence composition information, TEMP as environmental turbulence information acquiring section Device and voltage detecting circuit etc. obtain the environmental turbulence composition such as temperature change composition information or power supply voltage variation composition information Information.On the other hand, aging variance components are the variance components for the frequency of oscillation passed through with the time and changed, it is difficult to pass through sensing Device etc. directly detects the information of the aging variance components.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, obtaining can be become by environment such as the temperature change composition informations of the detections such as sensor Dynamic composition information, and the environmental turbulence composition information is utilized, acquirement is eliminated in environmental turbulence composition and aging variance components The frequency control data of environmental turbulence composition.That is, by carrying out removing environmental turbulence from the variance components of frequency control data The processing (such as addition process of adder 65) of composition, can be obtained as shown in Figure 26 E2 and only remain aging change The frequency control data of dynamic composition.Then, if carrying out Kalman according to the frequency control data for remaining aging variance components Filtering process etc., then can estimate the true value for frequency control data.If moreover, entered according to the true value so estimated Row age correction, then can realize the high-precision age correction that can not be realized in the prior embodiment.
