Of course, the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filtering structure 110 is not limited to be designed as a fifth-order low-pass filter, and can also be designed as a low-pass filter of other orders.
Referring to fig. 1 or fig. 2 again, the folding manner of the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110 may specifically be: the setting direction of the first microstrip line 111 is perpendicular to the setting direction of the head microstrip line 116 and the setting direction of the tail microstrip line 117, the setting direction of the first microstrip line 111 is perpendicular to the setting direction of the third microstrip line 113, and the setting direction of the first microstrip line 111 is parallel to the setting direction of the fourth microstrip line 114. So, can guarantee the performance of high low impedance microstrip line low pass filter structure 110 this application on the one hand, on the other hand can realize the miniaturized design of device, reduces volume size and occupation space.
As an alternative, the arrangement direction of the first microstrip line 111 forms an angle with the arrangement direction of the head microstrip line 116 and the arrangement direction of the tail microstrip line 117, respectively, which is, for example, in a range of 60 degrees to 120 degrees.
As an alternative, an angle between the arrangement direction of the first microstrip line 111 and the arrangement direction of the third microstrip line 113 is, for example, in a range of 0 degree to 30 degrees.
In one embodiment, the length L6 of the head microstrip line 116 is the same as the length L7 of the tail microstrip line 117, and the width W6 of the head microstrip line 116 is the same as the width W7 of the tail microstrip line 117.
In one embodiment, a straight line passing through a center point of the third microstrip line 113 and perpendicular to the third microstrip line 113 is defined as a symmetry axis P about which the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110 is disposed axisymmetrically.
In one embodiment, the length L of the first microstrip line 111 is 3.4mm to 4.2mm, the width W1 is 2mm to 2.8mm, the length L of the second microstrip line 112 is 2.5mm to 3.3mm, the width W2 is 0.1mm to 0.3mm, the length L.4 mm to 7.2mm of the third microstrip line 113 is 2mm to 2.8mm, the length L of the fourth microstrip line 114 is 2.5mm to 3.3mm, the width W4 is 0.1mm to 0.3mm, the length L of the fifth microstrip line 115 is 3.4mm to 4.2mm, the width W5 is 2mm to 2.8mm, the length L of the first microstrip line 116 is 1.5mm to 2.5mm, the width W6 of the tail end is 0.9mm to 1.3mm, the length of the microstrip line 117 is 1.7 mm to 2. 7 mm, and the width W6851.9 mm to 1.3 mm.
Specifically, the head microstrip line 116 and the tail microstrip line 117 are both 50 Ω impedance microstrip lines, for example.
Specifically, the length L1 of the first microstrip line 111 is 3.8mm, the width W1 is 2.4mm, the length L2 of the second microstrip line 112 is 2.9mm, the width W2 is 0.2mm, the length L3 of the third microstrip line 113 is 6.8mm, the width W3 is 2.4mm, the length L4 of the fourth microstrip line 114 is 2.9mm, the width W4 is 0.2mm, the length L5 of the fifth microstrip line 115 is 3.8mm, the width W5 is 2.4mm, the length L6 of the first microstrip line 116 is 2mm, the width W6 is 1.1mm, the length L7 of the end microstrip line 117 is 2mm, and the width W7 is 1.1 mm.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, an end of the head microstrip line 116 connected to the first microstrip line 111 is a tapered section whose width gradually decreases toward a direction close to the first microstrip line 111. Specifically, a first oblique edge 1161 is disposed on a side portion of one end of the head microstrip line 116 connected to the first microstrip line 111. In this way, a better feed transmission of the signal on the head microstrip line 116 to the first microstrip line 111 can be achieved.
In addition, similarly, one end of the terminal microstrip line 117 connected to the fifth microstrip line 115 is a tapered section whose width gradually decreases toward a direction close to the fifth microstrip line 115. Specifically, a second oblique side 1171 is provided on a side portion of one end of the end microstrip line 117 connected to the fifth microstrip line 115. In this way, a better feed transmission of the signal on the fifth microstrip line 115 to the end microstrip line 117 can be achieved.
In one embodiment, the coupler stub 120 includes a first transmission line 121 and two second transmission lines 122. The first transmission line 121 and the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110 are arranged at intervals, and a plurality of teeth 1211 at intervals are arranged on one side of the first transmission line 121 facing the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110. The two second transmission lines 122 are respectively connected to two ends of the first transmission line 121. Thus, under the action of the plurality of teeth 1211 of the first transmission line 121, the difference of the odd-coupled mode phase velocities of the microstrip coupling transmission line can be effectively reduced, and the directivity of the directional coupler can be greatly improved.
Specifically, the first transmission line 121 and the third microstrip line 113 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. As described above, when the low-pass filter 100 needs to have both the power detection function and the standing wave detection function, it is advantageous to realize that the shape and size of the head microstrip line 116 is the same as the shape and size of the tail microstrip line 117. Of course, as an alternative, the first transmission line 121 may be arranged in parallel with the end microstrip line 117 at an interval, and in order to implement the low-pass filter 100 with both the power detection function and the standing wave detection function, the length of the end microstrip line 117 is usually greater than that of the head microstrip line 116, so that the overall size is larger than that of the first transmission line 121 arranged in parallel with the third microstrip line 113 at an interval.
In one embodiment, the second transmission line 122 includes a first segment 1221 and a second segment 1222. One end of the first segment 1221 is connected to the first transmission line 121, the other end of the first segment 1221 is connected to the second segment 1222, the width of the first segment 1221 is smaller than the width of the second segment 1222, and the end of the second segment 1222 connected to the first segment 1221 is a gradually-changing segment whose width gradually decreases toward the direction close to the first segment 1221. Specifically, the side of the end of the second body segment 1222 connected to the first body segment 1221 is provided with a third chamfered edge 1223. Thus, on the one hand, the first segment 1221 can be matched to the impedance of the second segment 1222, and on the other hand, the transmission signal of the first segment 1221 can be transmitted to the second segment 1222 more smoothly.
In one embodiment, the shape of the teeth 1211 is triangular, square or semi-circular.
In one embodiment, the interval S between adjacent teeth 1211 is 0.12mm to 0.18mm, the height h of the teeth 1211 is 0.4mm to 0.8mm, and the width a of the teeth 1211 is 0.4mm to 1.2 mm.
Specifically, the interval S between adjacent teeth 1211 is 0.15mm, the height h of the teeth 1211 is 0.6mm, and the width a of the teeth 1211 is 0.8 mm.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3, a millimeter wave AAU system includes the low pass filter 100 described in any of the above embodiments, and further includes a transmitting end 200 for transmitting an intermediate frequency signal, a local oscillation module 300, a mixer 400, a power amplifier 500, a signal detection module 600, and a millimeter wave AIP antenna module 700. The transmitting terminal 200 and the local oscillator module 300 are both connected to the input terminal of the mixer 400, the output terminal of the mixer 400 is connected to the input terminal of the power amplifier 500, the output terminal of the power amplifier 500 is connected to the head-end microstrip line 116, and the input port of the millimeter wave AIP antenna module 700 is connected to the tail-end microstrip line 117. One end of the coupler branch 120 is electrically connected to the signal detection module 600, and the other end of the coupler branch 120 is grounded through a matching load.
After the millimeter wave AAU system is connected to the input port of the millimeter wave AIP (Antenna in package) Antenna module, on one hand, standing wave detection, power detection, DPD (Digital Pre-Distortion) function, and harmonic and out-of-band spurious suppression of the input port signal of the millimeter wave AIP Antenna module 700 can be realized, and on the other hand, because a plurality of microstrip lines of the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110 are folded, the high-low impedance microstrip line low-pass filter structure 110 is designed in a miniaturized manner, so that the size of the device is reduced to the maximum extent, the occupied space is small, and the miniaturized design can be realized while the planar circuit is designed in an interconnected manner. In addition, the low-pass filter 100 of the above embodiment performs signal harmonic and spurious suppression, power detection, standing wave detection, and DPD functions, and can provide a clean, stable, and high-quality input signal for the rear-end millimeter wave AIP module.
Further, the signal detection module 600 includes a digital-to-analog conversion module 610 and a digital signal processing module 620. One end of the coupler branch 120 is connected to a digital-to-analog conversion processing module, and the digital-to-analog conversion processing module is connected to the digital signal processing module 620.
Further, the millimeter wave AAU system further includes a circuit control module 800. The coupler branch 120 is connected to the digital-to-analog conversion processing module through the circuit control module 800.
When the power detection state needs to be adjusted, the circuit control module 800 switches to the first working state, and is configured to control the second transmission line 122 close to the head-end microstrip line 116 to be connected to the digital-to-analog conversion processing module, and the other second transmission line 122 is connected to a 50 Ω resistor and then grounded, at this time, the second transmission line 122 close to the head-end microstrip line 116 is coupled to the head-end microstrip line 116, the head-end microstrip line 116 not only transmits the transmission signal to the millimeter wave AIP antenna module 700 after filtering through the fifth-order low pass filter, but also transmits the transmission signal to the second transmission line 122 close to the head-end microstrip line 116 in a coupled manner, and then the second transmission line 122 close to the head-end microstrip line 116 transmits the transmission signal to the signal detection module 600, and the signal detection module 600 accordingly can achieve the power. At this time, since the other second transmission line 122 is grounded after being connected with a matching resistor of, for example, 50 Ω, the impedance of the second transmission line 122 can be matched, and the interference effect of the idle second transmission line 122 on the other three ports can be avoided.
When the standing wave detection state needs to be adjusted, the circuit control module 800 switches to a second working state, and is configured to control the second transmission line 122 close to the tail microstrip line 117 to be connected to the digital-to-analog conversion processing module, and the other second transmission line 122 is connected to a 50 Ω resistor and then grounded, at this time, the second transmission line 122 close to the tail microstrip line 117 is coupled to the head microstrip line 116, the tail microstrip line 117 can transmit the standing wave signal of the millimeter wave AIP antenna module 700 to the second transmission line 122 close to the tail microstrip line 117, and the second transmission line 122 close to the tail microstrip line 117 then transmits the standing wave signal to the signal detection module 600, and the signal detection module 600 can correspondingly implement the standing wave detection function. Similarly, since the other second transmission line 122 is grounded after being connected to a resistor of, for example, 50 Ω, the impedance of the second transmission line 122 can be matched, and the interference effect of the idle second transmission line 122 on the other three ports can be avoided.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, fig. 4 is a simulation graph of insertion loss, return loss and out-of-band rejection of the low-pass filter 100 according to the present embodiment. As can be seen from fig. 4, when the frequency point of the signal is 3.6GHz, the insertion loss is about 0.25dB, and the second harmonic suppression is greater than 19dB, which satisfies the design expectation. Fig. 5 is a simulation curve of the coupling degree and the isolation degree of the coupler branch 120 in the low-pass filter 100 according to the present embodiment. As can be seen from fig. 5, the insertion loss is about 1.4dB in the 800MHz bandwidth (2.8GHz-3.6GHz), and the directivity is greater than 23dB (directivity is isolation-coupling), which satisfies the design expectation.
