Description

Subsampling phase-locked loop for real-time fractional frequency division
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electronics, and relates to a sub-sampling phase-locked loop for real-time fractional frequency division.
Background
The phase-locked loop is one of important functional modules in a radio frequency/microwave communication system and a computer system, and is widely applied to the generation of carrier signals, clock signals, frequency modulation signals and phase modulation signals due to the advantages of good frequency tracking characteristic, low phase noise, small spurious component, high system stability and the like.
Compared with the traditional phase-locked loop based on the phase frequency detector-charge pump structure, the sub-sampling phase-locked loop directly utilizes the reference signal to sample the high-frequency signal output by the oscillator, an additional frequency divider is not needed, and noise introduced by the frequency divider and power consumption of the frequency divider are eliminated. In addition, the gain of the sub-sampling phase detector in the sub-sampling phase-locked loop is higher than that of the phase detector with the phase frequency detector-charge pump structure, so that the phase-locked loop can better inhibit phase noise in the loop bandwidth, and the sub-sampling phase-locked loop is a research hot spot of the current phase-locked loop with low power consumption and low phase noise. The sub-sampling phase detector itself lacks a mechanism to distinguish the oscillator periods and is therefore not directly used in a fractional-n pll. To solve this problem, the most commonly used method in the work reported at home and abroad today is to modulate the phase of the reference signal with a digital-to-time converter and change the sampling time to realize fractional frequency division. However, the noise of the digital-to-time converter modulates the phase of the reference signal, introducing additional phase noise, and this phase noise is not effectively suppressed by the sub-sampling phase detector, thereby deteriorating the phase noise characteristics of the sub-sampling phase locked loop. Furthermore, the accuracy and dynamic range of the digital-to-time converter are susceptible to integrated circuit processes, chip supply voltages, ambient temperature, and output signal cycles, requiring real-time calibration to ensure accurate fractional frequency division. Furthermore, the nonlinear nature of the digital-to-time converter can cause noise folding, further degrading the phase noise characteristics of the sub-sampling phase-locked loop. The existing fractional frequency sub-sampling phase-locked loop has many defects, which limit the wide application of the sub-sampling phase-locked loop in the current radio frequency/microwave communication system and computer system.
Although the sub-sampling phase-locked loop effectively suppresses phase noise within the system loop bandwidth, for a fractional-frequency sub-sampling phase-locked loop, phase noise outside the loop bandwidth is still dominated by fractional-frequency quantization noise. Researchers at home and abroad have proposed a plurality of quantization noise suppression methods in the last twenty years, such as feedforward compensation technology based on a digital-to-analog converter and a digital-to-time converter, phase difference value technology, filtering preprocessing method based on a finite impulse response filter, space-time average decimal frequency division technology and the like. However, these techniques have poor compatibility with sub-sampling phase locked loops, cannot be directly combined with sub-sampling phase detectors, and have limitations.
