Description

Amplitude limiting STC attenuator and radio frequency transceiving system
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a radio frequency receiving and dispatching field, in particular to amplitude limiting STC attenuator and radio frequency receiving and dispatching system.
Background
In a radio frequency transceiving system, the anti-burnout capability, the receiving sensitivity and the receiving dynamic range of a receiver are three key indexes. The anti-burnout capability is a protection function for preventing a high-power signal from entering a receiver to burnout an internal circuit of the receiver due to open circuit, short circuit or standing wave difference of a receiving and transmitting antenna in a transmitting period of a system; the receiving sensitivity is the amplitude value of the minimum signal which can be received by the receiver, and is reduced along with the increase of the noise coefficient of the receiver under the condition of certain instantaneous bandwidth; the receive dynamic range is the difference between the amplitude values of the largest and smallest signals that the receiver can receive.
As shown in FIG. 1, this is a functional block diagram of a conventional T/R component. Only looking at the receiver part, the front end of the receiver is provided with an amplitude limiter, the inside of the amplitude limiter is provided with a coupling detection function, when the detection power exceeds a set threshold, a PIN amplitude limiting diode inside the amplitude limiter is conducted, signals are reflected to a four-port circulator and absorbed by a high-power load. The amplitude limiter is followed by a low noise amplifier, the noise coefficient of the amplifier is very low, usually less than 2dB, and the sensitivity of the receiver can be ensured; the low noise amplifier is followed by an adjustable attenuator which is controlled by an external signal STC which is a voltage signal with a period T, each period including a receiving time T1 and a transmitting time T2, as shown in fig. 2, and the STC voltage is 0 at the transmitting period, which indicates that the receiver does not have any attenuation; in the reception period, the STC voltage gradually decreases with time, indicating that the attenuation amount gradually decreases from high to low to 0, because the near-field signal returns first and the far-field signal returns later, the near-field signal has high power, and the attenuation amount is large and the far-field signal has low power to prevent the amplifier from being saturated, and therefore no attenuation is required to improve the system sensitivity. When the input radio frequency signal is large, the control signal increases the attenuation of the attenuator, thereby improving the receiving capability of the receiver to large signals and increasing the receiving dynamic range.
The conventional model has the disadvantage that the near-field blind area is too large because the input 1dB compression point of the low noise amplifier is usually very low, and the near-field signal is usually higher than the input 1dB compression point of the low noise amplifier, which can saturate the low noise amplifier, so that the near-field signal cannot be demodulated, and a near-field blind area appears on a radar image. The adjustable attenuator behind the low noise amplifier has a dynamic compression function, but if the adjustable attenuator is placed in front of the low noise amplifier, the insertion loss of the attenuator is large (generally greater than 2dB), so that the sensitivity of a receiver is reduced, and the radar detection distance is shortened.
