Technical Field

Background
Referring to fig. 1, communication devices currently receive various forms of wireless signals, where information that is desired is a wanted signal and other information that is not desired is a wanted signal. Generally, in order to avoid unwanted signals in the environment, a filter circuit is disposed in the receiving path to filter unwanted signals with different frequencies from the wanted signals (the unwanted signals are attenuated to significantly reduce the power of the unwanted signals), so as to ensure stable operation of the receiving circuit and the rf transceiver.
However, two problems inevitably exist in practical applications of communication devices:
1. many unwanted signals may have the same frequency as the desired signal or very close to the desired signal, and the filter itself cannot distinguish between the desired signal and unwanted signals having the same frequency, i.e. unwanted signals having the same frequency as the desired signal may also normally pass through the filter without being attenuated and reach the next stage of circuitry (e.g. a low noise amplifier). But also the attenuation capability of the filter is very limited for unwanted signals with frequencies very close to the frequency of the wanted signal. Such unwanted signals, which have a frequency close to or the same as the frequency of the wanted signal and a high signal strength, are collectively referred to herein as blocking signals. Therefore, when the communication device encounters a condition where the blocking signal power is too high, the low noise amplifier or the radio frequency transceiver is saturated and abnormal operation occurs.
2. The power of the signal received by the low noise amplifier or the radio frequency transceiver is limited, and the low noise amplifier or the radio frequency transceiver is saturated by the signal with too high strength, so that the performance of the device is remarkably reduced and even the device is directly damaged, and the communication equipment is abnormally operated.

The embodiment of the utility model provides a signal processing circuit, include: the antenna comprises an antenna 7, a receiving circuit 4 for receiving communication signals, a transmitting circuit 3 for transmitting the communication signals, a gating circuit 2 for gating according to the working state of the transmitting circuit 3, a radio frequency transceiver 1 for detecting the power of the received communication signals, an antenna switch 6 for controlling the antenna 7 to communicate with the receiving circuit 4 according to the detection result of the radio frequency transceiver 1, an attenuation circuit 5, and a first coupling circuit 8 for receiving the communication signals sent by the antenna 7 and transmitting the communication signals to the attenuation circuit 5.
In this embodiment, the attenuation circuit 5 is an attenuation network, and may also be another attenuation circuit 5, which is not limited herein; the first coupling circuit 8 is a coupler; the radio frequency transceiver 1 may be provided with a power detection chip inside to perform power detection on the received communication signal, and it can be understood that power detection is a common technology in the prior art and is not described herein again. The gate circuit 2 includes: the two-select gate and the single-pole double-throw switch may also be a switch circuit such as an analog switch, and are not limited herein. It can be understood that, the signal processing circuit in the embodiment of the present invention can not only adopt the antenna switch 6, but also adopt the duplexer to implement in practical applications.
The input end of the antenna switch 6 is connected to the output end of the radio frequency transceiver 1 through the transmitting circuit 3, the output end of the antenna switch 6 is connected to the first input end of the radio frequency transceiver 1 through the receiving circuit 4, the signal transceiving end of the antenna switch 6 is connected to the first coupling circuit 8, and the first coupling circuit 8 is further connected to the input ends of the antenna 7 and the attenuating circuit 5, respectively.
The first gating end of the gating circuit 2 is connected with the output end of the attenuation circuit 5, the second gating end of the gating circuit 2 is connected with the signal coupling end of the transmitting circuit 3, and the output end of the gating circuit 2 is connected with the second input end of the radio frequency transceiver 1.
The gating circuit 2 is configured to gate according to the operating state of the transmitting circuit 3, and specifically, when the transmitting circuit 3 operates, the gating circuit 2 gates the second gating end to connect with the transmitting circuit 3, so that the radio frequency transceiver 1 performs power detection. That is, when the transmission circuit 3 does not operate, the gating circuit 2 gates the first gating terminal to be connected to the attenuation circuit 5. Through the gating circuit 2, the communication equipment can realize power detection when transmitting signals and receiving signals, so that the working stability of the communication equipment is improved.
The attenuation circuit 5 has a preset attenuation value, which is 10dB in this embodiment, and may be set as necessary, that is, the actual power value of the communication signal subjected to power detection by the radio frequency transceiver 1 is the measurement power value + the attenuation value.

After the transmitting circuit 3 works, the gating circuit 2 gates the second gating terminal to receive the communication signal of the transmitting circuit 3 and transmits the communication signal to the radio frequency transceiver 1, and judges whether the power output by the transmitting circuit 3 meets the signal transmission requirement or not according to the power detection result of the radio frequency transceiver 1, so that the output power of the transmitting circuit 3 is adjusted. Therefore, when the antenna 7 receives a signal with high communication signal strength, the attenuation circuit 5 attenuates the coupled communication signal, so that the problem that the gating circuit 2 and the radio frequency transceiver 1 are damaged due to an overlarge signal is solved. Meanwhile, the power of the received communication signal is detected through the radio frequency transceiver 1, whether the current communication signal is a useful signal or not is judged, and whether the antenna switch 6 is conducted or not is selected, so that the problem that the radio frequency transceiver 1 and the receiving circuit 4 work abnormally due to the fact that the receiving circuit 4 receives a blocking signal is solved, and the working stability of the communication equipment is improved. And the increased hardware occupies a small circuit board size, even though a small communication device is still suitable.

Specifically, when the transmitting circuit 3 is in operation (i.e. the communication device is in a state of transmitting signals at this time), the gating circuit 2 gates the transmitting circuit 3, and the radio frequency transceiver 1 detects the communication signals of the transmitting circuit 3 to determine whether the power output by the transmitting circuit 3 meets the requirement, so as to adjust the output power of the transmitting circuit 3. It will be appreciated that when the transmitting circuit 3 is in operation, then power detection of the communication signal of the transmitting circuit 3 is prioritized.

In the present embodiment, the signal is amplified by the power amplifier 31 and coupled by the second coupling circuit 32, and the coupled signal is sent to the gating circuit 2, so that the rf transceiver 1 performs power detection on the signal.
As a modification of the above, the receiving circuit 4 includes: a low noise amplifier 41 and a filter circuit 42. In this embodiment, the filter circuit 42 is a filter, and may be another filter circuit, which is not limited herein.
The output terminal of the low noise amplifier 41 is connected to the first input terminal of the radio frequency transceiver 1, the input terminal of the low noise amplifier 41 is connected to the output terminal of the filter circuit 42, and the input terminal of the filter circuit 42 is connected to the output terminal of the antenna switch 6.
In the present embodiment, the maximum power that the low noise amplifier 41 can accept is set when the hardware is shipped from the factory, and therefore, when the received communication signal is greater than the maximum power, the low noise amplifier 41 is prone to hardware damage. After the radio frequency transceiver 1 detects the received communication signal, if the actual power value is greater than the maximum power of the low noise amplifier 41 or the maximum power of the radio frequency transceiver 1, it indicates that the communication signal is a blocking signal and the power is too high, the antenna switch 6 maintains the off state; if the actual power value is smaller than the maximum power of the low noise amplifier 41 or the maximum power of the rf transceiver 1, it indicates that the communication signal is a useful signal, and the antenna switch 6 connects the antenna 7 and the receiving circuit 4. Wherein, the actual power value is the measured power value + the attenuation value.
