Description
技术领域technical field

背景技术Background technique

The more important certification items related to hardware include the modem's receiving power, transmission power, anti-interference ability and output signal testing. .
已知调制解调器的认证项目的测试作法是根据不同的认证项目而有不同的测试架构,因此若测试人员要分别针对调制解调器的多个认证项目进行测试,则必须耗费时间及人力来建立多个测试架构;此外,由于同一个调制解调器一次仅能针对一个认证项目进行测试,而无法同时针对多个认证项目进行测试,因此若要针对多个认证项目进行测试,则亦相当耗费时间及人力;再者,由于调制解调器在不同测试架构进行测试时,调制解调器与其连接的仪器之间会有频繁的“插拔”动作,进而降低仪器接头的寿命。It is known that the testing methods of the certification projects of modems have different test structures according to different certification projects. Therefore, if testers want to test multiple certification projects of modems respectively, it is necessary to spend time and manpower to establish multiple test frameworks. ; In addition, since the same modem can only be tested for one certification item at a time, and cannot be tested for multiple certification items at the same time, it is also time-consuming and labor-intensive to test for multiple certification items; furthermore, When the modem is tested in different test architectures, there will be frequent "plugging and unplugging" actions between the modem and its connected instruments, thereby reducing the life of the instrument connector.

For example, when the difference between the reference received power and the actual received power is more than 3dB, it means that the received power of the DUT under test is abnormal, so the first test result is "abnormal received power"; on the contrary, when the reference received power is abnormal When the difference between the power and the actual received power is less than 3dB, it means that the received power of the DUT under test is still within the normal range, so the first test result is "normal received power".

在对应待测装置DUT的参考传输功率及实际传输功率被获得后,可再通过分析主机来比较参考传输功率及实际传输功率之间的差异,进而产生第二测试结果。举例来说,当参考接收功率与实际接收功率之间相差2dB以上时,则表示待测装置DUT的传输功率发生异常,因此第二测试结果为“传输功率发生异常”;相反地,当参考传输功率与实际传输功率之间相差2dB以下时,则表示待测装置DUT的传输功率仍属于正常范围内,因此第二测试结果为“传输功率正常”。After the reference transmission power and the actual transmission power corresponding to the DUT under test are obtained, the difference between the reference transmission power and the actual transmission power can be compared by analyzing the host, thereby generating a second test result. For example, when the difference between the reference received power and the actual received power is more than 2dB, it means that the transmission power of the device under test DUT is abnormal, so the second test result is "transmission power is abnormal"; on the contrary, when the reference transmission power is abnormal When the difference between the power and the actual transmission power is less than 2dB, it means that the transmission power of the DUT under test is still within the normal range, so the second test result is "normal transmission power".
再请参照图3C,其为根据图2所示的测试系统200用于测试待测装置DUT的抗干扰能力的示意图。Please refer to FIG. 3C again, which is a schematic diagram of the
首先,电缆调制解调器终端系统120输出第一下行信号DS1,第一下行信号DS1经过衰减器ATT及放大器AMP后传输至第一分流器SP1;接着,第一分流器SP1将经过衰减器ATT及放大器AMP的第一下行信号DS1分流为功率相同的两第二下行信号DS2。First, the cable
第二下行信号DS2的一者沿着实线箭头方向经过第四双工器DP4而被传输至第三分流器SP3。One of the second downlink signals DS2 is transmitted to the third splitter SP3 through the fourth duplexer DP4 in the direction of the solid arrow.
第一噪声产生器141产生第一噪声信号NS1,且第二噪声产生器142产生第二噪声信号NS2。接着,第四分流器SP4将第一噪声信号NS1及第二噪声信号NS2合并成噪声信号NS,并将噪声信号NS传输至第三分流器SP3。在一些实施例中,第一噪声产生器141及/或第二噪声产生器142可例如为随机噪声产生器、数字噪声产生器、多项式产生器、高斯数字噪声产生器或其他可应用于本公开文件的测试系统的噪声产生器。The
第三分流器SP3将相应于所接收的第二下行信号DS2及噪声信号NS合并后经过耦合器CP而传输至待测装置DUT。The third splitter SP3 combines the received second downlink signal DS2 and the noise signal NS and transmits it to the device under test DUT through the coupler CP.
在待测装置DUT接收到第二下行信号DS2及噪声信号NS后,可通过分析主机来分析待测装置DUT接收到第二下行信号的情况,进而产生第三测试结果。具体来说,当待测装置DUT被噪声信号NS影响而不能够正确地接收到第二下行信号DS2,使得待测装置DUT无法与电缆调制解调器终端系统120连线,或者待测装置DUT可与电缆调制解调器终端系统120连线但无法正确地交换封包,则表示待测装置DUT的抗干扰能力不佳,因此第三测试结果为“抗干扰能力不佳”;相反地,当待测装置DUT不被噪声信号NS影响而能够正确地接收到第二下行信号DS2,使得待测装置DUT可与电缆调制解调器终端系统120连线且能够正确地交换封包,则表示待测装置DUT的抗干扰能力佳,因此第三测试结果为“抗干扰能力佳”。After the device under test DUT receives the second downlink signal DS2 and the noise signal NS, the host can analyze the situation in which the device under test DUT receives the second downlink signal, thereby generating a third test result. Specifically, when the device under test DUT is affected by the noise signal NS and cannot correctly receive the second downlink signal DS2, so that the device under test DUT cannot be connected to the cable
再请参照图3D,并一并参照图4A至图4D。图3D是根据图2所示的测试系统200用于测试待测装置DUT输出的第一输出信号OS1的示意图。图4A至图4D分别是图3D所示的第一输出信号OS1、第一频段信号FS1、第二频段信号FS2及第二输出信号OS2的频谱图。Please refer to FIG. 3D again, and refer to FIGS. 4A to 4D together. FIG. 3D is a schematic diagram of the first output signal OS1 output by the
首先,待测装置DUT输出第一输出信号OS1,其中第一输出信号OS1具有第一频段F1及第二频段F2,如图4A所示。第一双工器DP1接收第一输出信号OS1,并将第一输出信号OS1依据第一频段F1及第二频段F2而对应输出第一频段信号FS1及第二频段信号FS2,其中第一频段信号FS1仅具有第一频段F1,第二频段信号FS2仅具有第二频段F2,如图4B及图4C所示。First, the device under test DUT outputs a first output signal OS1, wherein the first output signal OS1 has a first frequency band F1 and a second frequency band F2, as shown in FIG. 4A . The first duplexer DP1 receives the first output signal OS1, and correspondingly outputs the first frequency band signal FS1 and the second frequency band signal FS2 from the first output signal OS1 according to the first frequency band F1 and the second frequency band F2, wherein the first frequency band signal FS1 only has the first frequency band F1, and the second frequency band signal FS2 only has the second frequency band F2, as shown in FIG. 4B and FIG. 4C .
接着,第一频段信号FS1传输至第二双工器DP2,以及第二频段信号FS2经过第二放大器AMP后传输至第二双工器DP2。应注意的是,第二放大器AMP的目的在于可以将第二频段信号FS2的功率放大,以避免第二频段信号FS2的功率过小而无法被测量到。Next, the first frequency band signal FS1 is transmitted to the second duplexer DP2, and the second frequency band signal FS2 is transmitted to the second duplexer DP2 after passing through the second amplifier AMP. It should be noted that the purpose of the second amplifier AMP is to amplify the power of the second frequency band signal FS2 to prevent the power of the second frequency band signal FS2 from being too small to be measured.
第二双工器DP2合并第一频段信号FS1及功率经放大的第二频段信号FS2以产生第二输出信号OS2,如图4D所示,接着第二输出信号OS2经过切换开关SW后传输至频谱分析仪110。The second duplexer DP2 combines the first frequency band signal FS1 and the power-amplified second frequency band signal FS2 to generate a second output signal OS2, as shown in FIG. 4D, and then the second output signal OS2 is transmitted to the spectrum after passing through the
在频谱分析仪110接收到第二输出信号OS2后,可通过分析主机分析第二输出信号OS2的第一频段F1及第二频段F2的波形是否出现异常,进而产生第四测试结果。After the
举例来说,如图4D所示,当第二输出信号OS2的第一频段F1的波形产生裙摆(未示出)时,或者当第二输出信号OS2的第二频段F2产生谐波(未示出)时,则表示当待测装置DUT输出第一输出信号OS1时,第一输出信号OS1将会影响到周遭其他电器装置的运行,因此第四测试结果为“第一输出信号OS1异常”;相反地,当第二输出信号OS2的第一频段F1的波形未产生裙襬且第二频段F2无谐波时,则表示当待测装置DUT输出第一输出信号OS1时,第一输出信号OS1不会影响到周遭其他电器装置的运行,因此第四测试结果为“第一输出信号OS1正常”。For example, as shown in FIG. 4D , when the waveform of the first frequency band F1 of the second output signal OS2 generates a skirt (not shown), or when the second frequency band F2 of the second output signal OS2 generates harmonics (not shown) shown), it means that when the device under test DUT outputs the first output signal OS1, the first output signal OS1 will affect the operation of other surrounding electrical devices, so the fourth test result is "the first output signal OS1 is abnormal" On the contrary, when the waveform of the first frequency band F1 of the second output signal OS2 does not produce a skirt and the second frequency band F2 has no harmonics, it means that when the device under test DUT outputs the first output signal OS1, the first output signal OS1 will not affect the operation of other surrounding electrical devices, so the fourth test result is "the first output signal OS1 is normal".
此外,图2及图3A至图3D所示的切换开关SW可用于依据不同的认证项目而进行切换,举例来说,当在测试待测装置DUT的接收功率、传输功率或抗干扰能力时,切换开关SW仅允许频谱分析仪110与第三双工器DP3之间信号的传输;或者,当在测试待测装置DUT的输出信号时,切换开关SW仅允许频谱分析仪110与第二双工器DP2之间信号的传输。In addition, the switch SW shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3A to FIG. 3D can be used to switch according to different authentication items. For example, when testing the received power, transmission power or anti-interference ability of the DUT, The switch SW only allows the transmission of signals between the
综上所述,本公开文件的测试系统可通过将频谱分析仪、电缆调制解调器终端系统、第一分流器、第二分流器、噪声产生装置、第三分流器、第一双工器、放大器及第二双工器等元件而可对待测装置的接收功率、传输功率、抗干扰能力及输出信号进行测试,让测试人员仅需利用本公开文件的测试系统即可针对多个认证项目进行测试,而无需耗费时间及人力针对不同的认证项目建立不同的测试架构,进而解决已知测试作法的“耗费时间及人力”与“降低仪器接头的寿命”的缺失。In summary, the test system of the present disclosure can be achieved by combining a spectrum analyzer, a cable modem termination system, a first shunt, a second shunt, a noise generating device, a third shunt, a first duplexer, an amplifier, and The second duplexer and other components can be used to test the received power, transmission power, anti-interference ability and output signal of the device under test, so that the tester only needs to use the test system of this disclosure to test for multiple certification items. There is no need to spend time and manpower to establish different test structures for different certification projects, thereby solving the shortage of "time-consuming and manpower-consuming" and "reducing the life of instrument connectors" of known test practices.
