Description

Broadband high-power positive slope equalizer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave device design, and particularly relates to an equalizer design technology.
Background
An equalizer is used for a transmission channel in a wireless communication system, correcting amplitude frequency characteristics and phase frequency characteristics. In a radar system, the signal distortion can be greatly improved when the signal is positioned at a transmitting end or a receiving end.
In broadband microwave systems, the signal attenuation tends to increase with increasing frequency, forming a negative slope curve. The transmission characteristic of a positive slope equalizer is a positive slope line, and one such device is superimposed to flatten the final output.
Some passive devices in microwave band, such as filters, couplers, isolators, power dividers, etc., have relatively perfect comprehensive theoretical research and calculation methods. The equalizer is difficult to design easily by using general theory and calculation method aiming at different products and different working environments. Considering the uniqueness and complexity of the equalizer product, an optimized physical structure needs to be built to realize and make up for the theoretical deficiency.
For example, after microwave signals pass through a plurality of multi-stage power amplification devices, the amplitude changes randomly at certain frequency points, which causes signal distortion, and a high-power equalizer needs to be additionally installed to improve the amplitude-frequency characteristic, so that the output signals reach the flatness required by the technology. Generally speaking, the equalizer is required to have a wide amplitude adjustment range to ensure better flatness of an output signal, a small voltage standing wave ratio to reduce interference to a system, and a small size in some special environments. In addition, some microwave and millimeter wave power modules have different degrees of phase unevenness, and an equalizer is needed to improve the phase-frequency characteristic.
For example, chinese patent publication No. CN103885177B discloses a dynamic gain slope equalizer for an optical fiber amplifier and a manufacturing process thereof. The equalizer comprises an MEMS optical micro-mirror driver chip and a double-optical-fiber collimator which are packaged by optics, and is manufactured by adopting an MEMS process. The structure has large actual manufacturing difficulty and small adjustable range.
Chinese patent publication No. CN106713810A discloses a slope and level detection and automatic compensation circuit and a control method thereof, which includes a coupler, a mixer, a phase-locked loop, a sound table filter, a baseband filter and a radio frequency detector. Through the components, the controller can automatically detect the level and the slope of the radio-frequency signal, and according to the detected level and the slope, the controller can automatically compensate and adjust the radio-frequency signal by adjusting the electric control attenuator and the electric control slope equalizer. The equalizer of the structure is an active equalizer, and the complexity is far higher than that of a passive microstrip structure equalizer.
The adjustable range of the equalizer is increased, the working stability of the equalizer is improved, the equalizer is suitable for the adjustment requirement of a complex equalization curve and the working frequency band width, the insertion loss is low, the production cost is low, and the constant pursuit in the field of equalizer design is provided. In the X wave band or Ku wave band, the equalizer made of the microstrip structure has a good return loss slope, and no design is found.
