Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting thereof. It should be further noted that, for convenience of description, only some, but not all of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
Based on the above technical problems, the present embodiment proposes the following solutions:
fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a frequency synchronization system of a lock-in amplifier according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1, a frequency synchronization system 10 of a lock-in amplifier according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: the phase adjusting module 2 is used for outputting an initial reference signal, and gradually reducing the frequency of the initial reference signal with a preset step length; the oscillator 3 is connected with the phase adjusting module 2, and the oscillator 3 is used for generating a reference signal according to the initial reference signal and the input signal to be measured; the phase adjusting module 2 is further configured to adjust a frequency of a target reference signal output by the oscillator 3 according to a phase difference between the reference signal and the signal to be measured; the frequency of the target reference signal is converged with the frequency of the signal to be detected.
Specifically, an externally input signal to be measured may be input through the input interface 1. The phase adjusting module 2 is connected with the calculating module 4 and the oscillator 3, and the phase adjusting module 2 can output an initial reference signal with larger frequency to the oscillator 3 after being electrified. The frequency of the initial reference signal is higher than the frequency of the signal to be measured.
The oscillator 3 may generate a reference signal based on frequency information of the initial reference signal. The frequency of the reference signal generated by the oscillator 3 may deviate from the frequency information of the signal to be measured. The phase adjustment module 2 gradually reduces the frequency of the initial reference signal output by itself according to the difference between the phase of the reference signal and the phase of the signal to be measured. Illustratively, the phase adjustment module 2 may reduce the frequency of the initial reference signal in a first step.
By gradually reducing the frequency of the initial reference signal, a frequency close to the signal to be measured can be found.
The phase adjustment module 2 further gradually reduces the frequency of the initial reference signal output by itself according to the difference between the phase of the reference signal and the phase of the signal to be measured. Illustratively, the phase adjustment module 2 may reduce the frequency of the initial reference signal in a second step. The second step size is smaller than the first step size. For example, it may be configured that when the difference between the angular frequency of the initial reference signal and the angular frequency of the signal to be measured approaches zero, the phase adjustment module 2 determines the phase and frequency of the output reference signal as the frequency of the target reference signal based on the difference between the phase of the reference signal and the phase of the signal to be measured. When the frequency of the reference signal coincides with the frequency of the signal to be measured, the phase adjustment module 2 will stop the phase adjustment. The oscillator 3 outputs the adjusted reference signal. The frequency of the adjusted reference signal is consistent with the frequency of the signal to be detected, so that the demodulation precision of the signal to be detected according to the adjusted reference signal and the signal to be detected is higher. By the arrangement, the frequency of the reference signal is consistent with the frequency of the signal to be detected, and the demodulation precision of the phase-locked amplifier to the signal to be detected of the weak signal electronic equipment is improved.
On the other hand, when the frequency of the reference signal is inconsistent with the frequency of the signal to be detected along with the extension of the running time of the device, the phase adjusting module 2 can detect the phase difference between the signal to be detected and the reference signal in real time and feed back the phase difference signal to the oscillator 3 in real time so as to adjust the frequency of the reference signal output by the oscillator 3 to be consistent with the frequency of the signal to be detected in real time, thereby further improving the demodulation precision of the phase-locked amplifier on the signal to be detected of the weak signal electronic device.
The frequency synchronization system 10 of the lock-in amplifier 20 provided in this embodiment gradually reduces the frequency of the initial reference signal by setting the phase adjustment module 2, outputting the initial reference signal by the phase adjustment module 2, and using a preset step size. And generates a reference signal from the initial reference signal and the input signal to be measured by the oscillator 3. The phase adjustment module 2 adjusts the frequency of the target reference signal output to the oscillator 3 according to the phase difference between the reference signal and the signal to be measured. Since the frequency of the target reference signal is the same as the frequency of the signal to be detected, the frequency of the reference signal output by the real-time adjusting oscillator 3 is further improved to be consistent with the frequency of the signal to be detected, and the demodulation precision of the phase-locked amplifier 20 to the signal to be detected of the weak signal electronic equipment is further improved.

Specifically, this arrangement allows the oscillator 3 to output two reference signals that are 90 ° out of phase, so as to improve the accuracy of the reference signals after mixing by the mixer 41.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 3, based on the above embodiments, the mixer 41 may include: the first mixer 411, the first mixer 411 is connected with the first output end and the input interface 1, the first mixer 411 is used for multiplying the signal to be detected and the first reference signal and outputting a first mixed signal; and the second mixer 412, the second mixer 412 is connected with the second output end and the input interface 1, and the second mixer 412 is used for multiplying the signal to be detected and the second reference signal and outputting a second mixed signal. The filtering unit 42 is configured to filter the first mixed signal to generate a first frequency difference signal and filter the second mixed signal to generate a second frequency difference signal; the phase calculation unit 22 is configured to calculate a tangent or a cotangent function value corresponding to a phase difference value between the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal according to the first frequency difference signal and the second frequency difference signal; the PID regulator 21 is configured to generate the frequency adjustment value based on the amount of change in the tangent or the cotangent function value obtained by sampling twice at different times.

By using a tangent or a cotangent function, it can be found whether the two samples span the repetition period of the function, whereas the sine or cosine function is not; to obtain a tangent or a cotangent function, the two signals are obtained with 90 degrees phase difference.
Illustratively, the first mixed signal and the second mixed signal are calculated by the following formula:
Wherein V psd1 is a first mixing signal, V psd2 is a second mixing signal, V sig is a voltage amplitude of a signal to be measured, V r is a voltage amplitude of a reference signal, omega 0 is an angular frequency of the signal to be measured, omega r is an angular frequency of the reference signal, For the phase of the signal to be measured,/>Is the reference signal phase.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 3 on the basis of the above embodiments, the phase calculation unit 22 may include: a first input terminal connected to the first mixer 411, the first input terminal being configured to receive a first mixed signal; a second input coupled to the second mixer 412, the second input configured to receive a second mixed signal; and a phase calculating unit 22 for calculating a phase difference value between the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal based on the first mixed signal and the second mixed signal.
Specifically, the phase calculation unit 22 calculates a phase difference value between the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal based on the first mixed signal and the second mixed signal. In the phase calculation unit 22, the phase difference of the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal is calculated. The specific calculation method of the phase calculation unit 22 is not limited in this regard, and may be implemented by a CORDIC algorithm, or by comparing rising or falling edges of signals, for example.
Optionally, when the difference between the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal to be detected and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal is greater than a preset threshold, the filtering unit 42 is configured to filter the ac component, and the first mixing signal and the second mixing signal are both filtered to be 0.
When the difference between the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal to be measured and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal is equal to the preset threshold, the filtering unit 42 is configured to filter the ac component, and the first mixed signal and the second mixed signal are filtered to obtain a frequency difference signal
When the difference between the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal to be measured and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal is smaller than a preset threshold value, the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal can pass through the filtering unit 42 to output the frequency difference signalThe method comprises the following steps:
the phase calculation unit 22 is configured to calculate a phase difference value between the signal to be measured and the initial reference signal using the following formula:
Alternatively, with continued reference to FIG. 3, based on the embodiments described above, the sampling period of the PID regulator 21 Wherein: n is the ratio of the cut-off frequency to the initial reference signal frequency, ω r is the initial reference signal angular frequency; the PID regulator 21 is configured to generate the frequency adjustment value based on the amount of change in the tangent or the cotangent function value obtained by sampling two adjacent times. If the sampling period is too large, two adjacent samples always span the repetition period of the function, and the correct phase difference variation cannot be obtained.
An alternative embodiment may be to adjust the frequency and phase directly with the PID regulator 21, i.e. the PID regulator 21 gives a maximum frequency and is continuously decreasing. Values of Q (t) and I (t) can only be obtained when the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal to be measured is relatively close to the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal, otherwise all are filtered by the low-pass filtering unit. At this point a reference signal has been obtained that is close in frequency to the input signal to be measured.
In order to further refine the frequency of the reference signal, it is assumed that the difference between the angular frequency ω 0 of the current signal to be measured and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal is Δ, and that the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal to be measured and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal are large, k is the sampling period k of the PID regulator 21, then the frequency difference signal of two adjacent samples of the module 4 is calculated subsequentlyThe method comprises the following steps of: /(I)And/>
In the above-mentioned method, the step of,For initial phase difference, i.e. >The ratio of the cut-off frequency of the low-pass filtering unit to the reference signal frequency is n, then k needs to satisfy: /(I)This is so set because if k is greater than/>The span of two adjacent samples is larger than half the period pi/2 of the tangent function, so that when two samples just span the period of the tangent function, the phase difference cannot be obtained in comparison, and whether the two samples span the period of the tangent function cannot be known.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 3, the change of the tangent or the residual function value obtained by two adjacent samplings of the PID regulator 21 is greater than or equal to 2, and the tangent or the residual function value obtained by two adjacent samplings is positive-negative or negative-positive, then resampling is performed to calculate the phase difference.
Based on the above definition, it can be known that if the frequency difference signal is sampled twice2 Or more, and either positive or negative, it may be determined that the two samples span the period of the tangent function, requiring resampling to calculate the phase difference. So configured, it can be determined whether the two samples span the repetition period of the function.
Since the tangent function is a monotonically increasing function, the difference delta between the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal under test and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal can be continuously adjusted by the PID regulator 21 until the difference delta between the angular frequency ω 0 of the signal under test and the angular frequency ω r of the reference signal approaches the preset range.
Excluding the case where two samples span the period of the tangent function, when the adjacent two samples effectively sample the frequency difference signalThe variation being within a predetermined range, e.g. approximately 0, according to the frequency difference signal/>Can obtain the phase difference/>Use/>The reference signal output by the oscillator 3 is adjusted to achieve the same frequency and same phase, i.e. synchronization, of the target reference signal and the input signal to be measured.
It should be noted that: omega r is the angular frequency of the oscillator 3 and the output signal of the PID regulator 21 is used to control the amount of change in frequency and phase of the output signal of the oscillator 3. The PID regulator 21 receives the frequency difference signal after changing the reference frequency of the oscillator 3The phase difference/>, of the previous sample can be obtained based on two adjacent effective samplesPhase difference from the last sampleThereby determining whether the reference frequency of the oscillator 3 should be increased or decreased and determining how much the reference frequency of the oscillator 3 should be increased or decreased.
When the PID regulator 21 receives the frequency difference signalAlways within a predetermined range, for example, approximately 0, it is indicated that the current reference signal is the same frequency and phase as the input signal. When the frequency difference signal/>If the reference signal exceeds the preset range, the reference signal is indicated to have a difference in frequency and/or phase with the input signal. At this time, the frequency difference signal/>, is based onFurther judgment is made.
When the frequency difference signal is sampled twiceAlways constant, i.e. when the variation is within an acceptable range, the reference signal and the input signal have only phase difference, pass/>, theThe phase difference/>, can be obtained
When the frequency difference signalWhen the value is always a variation value, the reference signal and the input signal have a frequency difference, the angular frequency omega 0 of the signal to be detected and the angular frequency omega r of the reference signal are approximately 0 through the adjusting process of the PID regulator 21, and the final stable phase difference/>
By setting the cut-off frequency of the filter unit 42 to be no more than 1/10 or 1/100 of the reference signal frequency, it is convenient to determine whether the difference between ω 0 and ω r is small in the first frequency adjustment stage.
