Specifically, when the third power synthesized signal output by the second power synthesis module is abnormal or the power reflection is too large, the second coupling module samples the third power synthesized signal to obtain a second sampled power, the second coupling module may generate a power change, the second protection control module detects the power change and compares the power change with a preset second condition, and if the power change is met, a fault alarm is issued, for example, an alarm sound is issued or the power synthesizer is controlled to be shut down, so as to protect the power synthesizer.
For example, as shown in fig. 2, the second control and protection module 160 further includes a third input terminal 163 and a fourth input terminal 164, the third input terminal 163 of the second control and protection module 160 is connected to the forward coupling terminal 131 of the first coupling module 130, the fourth input terminal 164 of the second control and protection module 160 is connected to the reverse coupling terminal 132 of the first coupling module 130, the first coupling module 130 sends the first sampled power to the second control and protection module 160, the second control and protection module 160 detects a change of the first sampled power, and if the change of the first sampled power meets a preset first condition, a fault alarm is issued, that is, the second control and protection module may be used to detect not only a power change of the second sampled power, but also a power change of the first sampled power, and a function of double warning is implemented by one control and protection module.
In the ku-band power combiner provided in the embodiment, potential safety hazards that may occur in the power combiner are further monitored by using the coupling module and the control and protection module in a matching manner, for example, the potential safety hazards caused by the isolation problem in the use process of the power combiner, and the like.
As shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the present disclosure provides a ku-band power amplifier, which includes the aforementioned power combiner 100, and further includes a plurality of power amplification modules 200, where each power amplification module 200 is connected to an input end of the magic T power combiner 111 in the first power combining module 110, and the power amplification modules are configured to amplify power and transmit the power to the magic T power combiner as power signals to be combined, and in an example, the power amplification modules are traveling wave tubes.
The ku-band power amplifier provided in the embodiment uses the power synthesizer described above, and realizes power synthesis by cascading a plurality of magic T power synthesizers and an H-T power synthesizer, and because the power capacity of the H-T power synthesizer is much larger than that of the magic T power synthesizer, the H-T power synthesizer does not have the problem of limited power capacity, a signal subjected to magic T power synthesis is subjected to power synthesis by H-T, so that high-power synthesis which cannot be realized by only using the magic T power synthesizer cascade can be realized, and the power amplifier can meet the use requirement of the ku-band on a high-power signal.
