Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of channel power detection, in particular to the technical field of wireless communication radio frequency receivers, and specifically relates to a fixed output power detection circuit structure for realizing self-adaptive link selection.
Background
In mobile communication, the signal transmitted by the channel has power time-varying property, so that the signal received by the receiving end is also a variable which varies along with the input of the wireless channel, and the proper radio frequency link is effectively selected according to the variation of the input power of the signal, so that the power of the output signal becomes a fixed value, which is convenient for the receiver to process and save the resources of a processor, and becomes one of key technologies of the mobile communication receiving technology.
The conventional channel power detection needs to traverse all dynamic ranges of the input power once, which not only requires a lot of time to traverse, but also needs to configure a proper radio frequency device to realize the output of a fixed power value, and the method cannot track the change of the input power of the channel in real time unless the current communication is stopped to traverse the link again. To solve this problem, a dedicated channel power detection channel may be introduced to implement real-time channel link power detection, but this scheme is rarely applied in the commercial field, because it causes a sharp increase in hardware cost.
With the use of the high-speed radio frequency sampling analog-to-digital converter, the signals of the whole frequency range can be all digitized at one time by utilizing the broadband sampling characteristic of the radio frequency sampling analog-to-digital converter, the information of the dynamic range of all output power is calculated at one time by signal processing in the digital domain, and the corresponding radio frequency is configured for a link module to use. However, the circuit is easy to be interfered, so that the accuracy is not high, and the applicability is not wide in some application occasions sensitive to the precision requirement.
As can be seen from the above power detection, the conventional scheme for realizing the output of fixed power by channel power detection is only used in the occasion where high accuracy is required due to the high hardware cost; for the scheme using the high-speed radio frequency sampling analog-to-digital converter, the digital signal is easy to be interfered in the transmission process, so that the error rate is increased, and the requirements are difficult to meet in high-precision application occasions.
