Description

Method and system for sectional tracking of amplitude range of envelope
Technical Field
The present application relates to the field of wireless communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and a system for tracking an envelope amplitude range in a segmented manner.
Background
Mobile communication has been rapidly developed since the 70 th century of 20 as a modern technology of wireless communication, and has been divided into substantially five generations so far. The world has now entered fifth generation (5th Generation,5G) mobile communications and 35% of the global mobile data traffic by 2024 will be borne by the 5G network. By the end of 12 months in 2022, the Chinese mobile phone user scale is 16.83 hundred million users, wherein the fifth generation mobile communication user scale is 5.61 hundred million users, accounting for 33.3 percent of the mobile phone users and 2.75 times of the global average level (12.1 percent), 231.2 ten thousand 5G base stations are built and opened in an accumulated way, and the total quantity of the base stations accounts for more than 60 percent of the world. From the first generation to the fifth generation, the progress of mobile communication technology drives the global economic development, influences the trend of high-tech industry, changes the life style of people, and simultaneously brings about huge energy consumption. In a mobile communication system, a base station consumes more than 70% of the electric energy of the whole system, and 51% of the total electric energy consumed by the base station is caused by a Power Amplifier (PA), so that improving the PA efficiency is an effective way for reducing the loss and improving the energy utilization rate of the mobile communication system.
When the envelope voltage of the Radio Frequency (RF) signal is not a constant value, if a constant voltage power supply mode is adopted, the voltage difference between the power supply voltage and the envelope of the RF signal is larger, and the efficiency is lower. If the envelope tracking power supply mode is adopted, the voltage difference between the power supply voltage and the envelope of the radio frequency signal is effectively reduced, so that the loss is greatly reduced, and the efficiency is improved. In a 4G mobile communication system, the typical range of the peak-to-average ratio of the power of the RF signal is 8.5 dB-13 dB, and the efficiency of the class A power amplifier is lower than 10% at the moment, so that the energy utilization rate is extremely low. In a 5G communication system, the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) and bandwidth of the signal are further improved, and if the efficiency of the radio frequency PA can be improved, the operation efficiency of the communication base station is also effectively improved, which is significant for energy saving, emission reduction and environmental pollution reduction.
At present, three modes for realizing the efficient operation of the PA are mainly available. Respectively, the Doherty technique, the envelope elimination and restoration (Envelope Elimination and Restoration, EER) technique, and the envelope tracking technique (Envelope Tracking, ET). The Doherty technology needs to use a primary power amplifier and a secondary power amplifier to work cooperatively, so that the cost is high and the working bandwidth is low. The EER technology adopts a nonlinear power amplifier, the output voltage of an envelope curve recovery link is required to be completely consistent with the amplitude of the envelope curve of an input signal, and the power supply requirement on the power amplifier is more severe. In the ET technology, the envelope output voltage tracks the RF reference signal and is slightly higher than the envelope of the RF reference signal, and the power supply mode of the PA has no strict power supply requirement in the EER technology, so the ET technology has better application prospect and realization mode.
With the development of modern mobile communication technology, the modulation technology of RF signals is more and more complex, so that the bandwidth and PAPR of envelope signals are greatly improved. The switching tube has very narrow on and off pulses in each period, which puts a great stress on the switching tube and its driving, and even makes it difficult to achieve efficient on and off. Thus requiring reduced bandwidth processing of the RF envelope signal. The lower the bandwidth of the RF envelope signal, the lower the switching frequency, the smaller the switching loss, and the corresponding larger the linear loss, and the problem is necessarily encountered in lowering the switching frequency to what bandwidth is appropriate. And how to better track the RF envelope signal for optimal efficiency is also a matter of concern.
