[ background of the invention ]
Amplitude-phase modulation is often used in digital communication and radar systems to transmit signals or sense objects, and an analog-to-digital signal converter is very important in the systems, but an analog-to-digital converter is often used in cooperation with a digital signal processor and consumes a certain amount of electric energy. In distributed multi-antenna communication and radar systems, the receivers are often distributed at different locations and interconnected synchronously by optical fibers, and it is common practice to digitize analog signals at the receiving antenna end by an analog-to-digital signal converter and transmit the digitized signals over optical fibers.
U.S. patent No. 7885359 to the fine epson corporation, the patent name: sampling demodulator for Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) radio receiver, which discloses a Sampling demodulator for an Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) radio receiver, ASK being a relatively simple demodulation scheme in which the carrier amplitude varies with the demodulated signal, ASK being equivalent to amplitude modulation in an analog signal, although it mentions that ASK demodulated signal can be sampled as a binary bit stream using a single comparator with a regulated voltage, there is no processing capability for the phase modulated signal, thus limiting the available modulation schemes
Therefore, it is necessary to develop a signal demodulation method and apparatus suitable for high frequency tuning signals.

Furthermore, in the following detailed description of the present invention, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details, and in other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components and circuits have not been described in detail.
Referring to fig. 1, a block diagram of a signal demodulation system according to the present invention is shown, the signal demodulation system is composed of a transmitting end 10, a far end 20 and a centralized processing end 30, and the far end 20 and the centralized processing end 30 are connected by a bidirectional optical fiber. The RX + terminal of the far end 20 receives a high-order modulated signal through an antenna, and the antenna herein should be understood in a broad sense, and converts an electrical signal into an optical signal by using a differential electrical-to-optical converter (not shown in the figure) of a differential-to-single-ended unit, where the optical signal is represented as 1 when the positive input voltage is higher than the negative terminal, and the optical signal is represented as 0 otherwise.
The optical signal is transmitted to the centralized processing end 30 through the optical fiber, the centralized processing end 30 generates a binary 10-sequence bit stream and transmits the binary 10-sequence bit stream to the far end 20, the 10-sequence bit stream generates a comparison threshold voltage waveform at the centralized processing end 30 through a comparison threshold module of the transmitting end 10, the comparison threshold module of the transmitting end 10 can change in real time according to the strength of the high-order modulation signal, correspondingly, the comparison threshold voltage waveform generated at the centralized processing end 30 also changes continuously, and the comparison threshold voltage waveform here can be a periodic sine wave or a periodic sawtooth wave. The comparison threshold module of the transmitting terminal 10 is connected to the RX-terminal of the far end 20, and by generating a constantly changing comparison threshold voltage waveform, the comparator in the far end 20 compares the high-order modulation signal with different voltage amplitudes, so as to virtualize the effect of the multi-bit comparator and realize the demodulation of the high-order modulation signal.
At the centralized processing end 30, the collected 10-sequence bit stream is processed in a centralized manner, when 0 and 1 jump occurs, the generated comparison threshold voltage waveform amplitude and the input signal are interlaced, a sampling value is output according to a sine wave value corresponding to the acquired data jump position, the sampling value is further converted into a single-bit high-speed signal, the single-bit high-speed signal is transmitted to a far end through an optical fiber, an optical signal is converted into an electrical signal by using an electro-optical converter (not shown in the figure) of a single-end differential conversion unit at the far end, and the sampling value is further output to a transmitting end after being filtered by using a band-pass filter.
Since the comparison threshold voltage waveform in the technical scheme of the present invention is generated at the centralized processing terminal 30, the centralized processing terminal 30 can obtain the amplitude of the signal received by the far end 20 by comparing the comparison threshold voltage waveform with the data transition position of the high-order modulation signal.

step 204, acquiring a signal value corresponding to the position of a signal cross point of the high-order modulation signal and the comparison threshold voltage waveform, and acquiring a voltage value of the high-order modulation signal;
step 205, converting the voltage value of the high-order modulation signal into a single-bit high-speed signal, transmitting the single-bit high-speed signal to a far end through an optical fiber, and further converting an optical signal into an electrical signal by using a far-end electro-optical converter for transmission;
and step 206, the far end filters the electric signal by using a band-pass filter and then transmits the output sampling value of the electric signal to the transmitting end, a comparison threshold module of the transmitting end transmits the received sampling value to the far end, a comparator arranged in the far end is further used for comparing the high-order modulation signal with the sampling value, and the centralized processing end further obtains the amplitude of the far end receiving the high-order modulation signal.
Particularly, the comparison threshold voltage waveform may change in real time according to the strength of the high-order modulation signal, and accordingly, the comparison threshold voltage waveform may also change continuously, where the comparison threshold voltage waveform may be a periodic sine wave or a periodic sawtooth wave.
The present invention also provides a voltage comparator, which directly collects and centrally processes signals at the centralized processing end 30 by using optical fibers, so that the power consumption of the remote receiver is greatly reduced, and the complete synchronization of the contents received by all the receivers can be realized.
