  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  First, the configuration of an embodiment of a signal analyzing apparatus according to the present invention will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the signal analyzing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment captures (captures) and analyzes an output signal of a device under measurement (hereinafter referred to as “DUT”) 1. This DUT 1 has a large number of antenna output ports and outputs a signal in accordance with, for example, the MIMO system. For example, the DUT 1 is a transmission device that has an antenna output port connected to a multi-antenna of a base station of a mobile phone system and transmits a radio frequency signal according to the MIMO scheme. In the following description, it is assumed that DUT 1 has 102 antenna output ports.

  The signal analysis device 10 includes a switch box 20, an RF unit 30, a signal analysis unit 40, a display device 50, an operation unit 11, and a control device 60. The signal analysis device 10 includes a microcomputer including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, an input / output circuit to which various interfaces are connected, and the like. The signal analysis device 10 causes the microcomputer to function as each functional unit of the signal analysis device 10 by executing a control program stored in advance in the ROM.

  The switch box 20 predetermines any one of a plurality of antenna output ports of the DUT 1 upon receiving from the control device 60 a signal indicating the capture start of the output signal of the DUT 1 (hereinafter referred to as “trigger signal”). The output signals from the antenna output ports are captured and the captured data is output to the RF unit 30. The switch box 20 is an example of a selection unit.

  The RF unit 30 includes an ATT (attenuator) 31, a local oscillator 32, a mixer 33, a BPF (band pass filter) 34, and an ADC (analog / digital converter) 35, and a frequency to be measured (frequency of a signal to be captured). It can be set. The RF unit 30 is an example of a frequency conversion unit.

  The ATT 31 attenuates the RF signal input from the switch box 20 to a predetermined level and outputs it to the mixer 33.

  The local oscillator 32 generates a local oscillation signal having a predetermined frequency and outputs it to the mixer 33.

  The mixer 33 mixes the RF signal output from the ATT 31 and the local oscillation signal from the local oscillator 32, converts the frequency into a signal having a predetermined frequency, and outputs the signal to the BPF 34.

  The BPF 34 performs filtering of the input signal, extracts a signal in a predetermined frequency domain, and outputs the signal to the ADC 35.

  The ADC 35 converts the output signal of the BPF 34 from an analog value to a digital value and outputs it to the signal analysis unit 40.

  The signal analysis unit 40 includes an IQ conversion unit 41, a memory unit 42, and an analysis unit 43, and captures and analyzes the waveform data of the signal output from the ADC 35.

  The IQ conversion unit 41 converts the output signal of the ADC 35 into I-phase component (in-phase component) and Q-phase component (orthogonal component) data (hereinafter referred to as “I / Q data”), and outputs the data to the memory unit 42. It has become.

  The memory unit 42 stores the I / Q data converted by the IQ conversion unit 41 when the trigger signal is received from the control device 60. The memory unit 42 is an example of an output signal storage unit.

  The analysis unit 43 performs a predetermined analysis on the I / Q data stored in the memory unit 42. For example, the analysis unit 43 obtains transmission power, modulation accuracy (Error Vector Magnitude, EVM), adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACLR), phase error, phase error, amplitude error, etc. be able to. The analysis unit 43 is an example of a signal analysis unit.

  The display device 50 includes a display control unit 51 and a display unit 52. The display control unit 51 performs display control of information displayed on the display unit 52. The display unit 52 displays predetermined information based on the display control of the display control unit 51.

  The operation unit 11 is operated by the user to set analysis items, analysis conditions, determination conditions, and the like for analyzing the signal under measurement. For example, the operation unit 11 includes a display that displays a setting screen for setting various conditions, an input device such as a keyboard, a dial, or a mouse, a control circuit that controls these, software, and the like. The input of analysis conditions and the display contents of the display unit 52 are set.

  The control device 60 includes a control unit 61, a frequency table 62, and a frequency band setting unit 63.

  The control unit 61 sets various information input by the operation unit 11 in each unit of the signal analysis apparatus 10 and the DUT 1. The control unit 61 outputs a trigger signal to the switch box 20 and the memory unit 42 when starting to capture the output signal of the DUT 1. Further, the control unit 61 outputs a switch switching signal to the switch box 20 in order to capture the output signal of the DUT 1 at a predetermined timing for each antenna output port.

  The frequency table 62 stores frequency information of an output signal output from each antenna output port of the DUT 1. This frequency information includes information such as frequency and communication method for each antenna output port. The frequency table 62 is an example of a frequency information storage unit.

  The frequency band setting unit 63 controls the local oscillator 32 and the BPF 34 of the RF unit 30 based on the frequency information stored in the frequency table 62, and sets the bandwidth of the RF signal to be captured. For example, when capturing a 2 GHz band output signal from a predetermined antenna output port, the frequency band setting unit 63 sets the oscillation frequency of the local oscillator 32 and the filter condition of the BPF 34 so that a 2 GHz signal can be captured. The frequency band setting unit 63 is an example of a frequency setting unit.

  The function of the frequency band setting unit 63 will be described with reference to FIG. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, when a 2 GHz band signal 71 is input from a certain antenna output port to the RF unit 30, the frequency band setting unit 63 uses a bandwidth 72 centered on the frequency f <b> 1 of the signal 71. Is set, the RF unit 30 can output a signal 71 in the 2 GHz band.

  Next, when a signal 73 in the 2 GHz band is input from a certain antenna output port to the RF unit 30, the signal 73 is within the bandwidth 72, so the frequency band setting unit 63 does not change the bandwidth 72. The RF unit 30 can output a signal 73 in the 2 GHz band.

  Next, when an 800 MHz band signal 74 is input to the RF unit 30 from an antenna output port, the frequency band setting unit 63 sets the bandwidth 75 centered on the frequency f3 of the signal 74, thereby making the RF The unit 30 can output the signal 74 in the 800 MHz band.

  Next, a detailed configuration of the switch box 20 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the antenna output port of the DUT 1 and the switch box 20. The switch box 20 of this configuration example includes a plurality of six-circuit / one-contact changeover switches each having six input-side terminals and one output-side terminal. Of the input side terminals of each changeover switch, the top in the figure is called the first and the bottom is called the sixth.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the DUT 1 has antenna output ports # 0 to # 101. The antenna output ports # 12 to # 89 are not shown.

  The switch box 20 includes a first changeover switch group 200, a second changeover switch group 220, and a changeover switch 21.

  The first changeover switch group 200 includes 17 changeover switches 201 to 217, and performs a changeover operation based on a switch changeover signal from the control device 60. Note that the selector switches 203 to 215 are not shown. The changeover switch 201 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 0 to # 5 of the DUT1. The changeover switch 202 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 6 to # 11 of the DUT 1. The changeover switch 216 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 90 to # 95 of the DUT 1. The changeover switch 217 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 96 to # 101 of the DUT 1.

  The second changeover switch group 220 includes three changeover switches 221 to 223, and performs a changeover operation based on a switch changeover signal from the control device 60. The changeover switch 221 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 0 to # 35 of the DUT 1 via the first changeover switch group 200. The changeover switch 222 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 36 to # 71 of the DUT 1 via the first changeover switch group 200. The changeover switch 223 can select any one of the antenna output ports # 72 to # 101 of the DUT 1 via the first changeover switch group 200. The changeover switch 223 uses five terminals from the first to the fifth as input terminals.

  In the changeover switch 21, the first to third input terminals are connected to the output terminals of the changeover switches 221 to 223 of the second changeover switch group 220, respectively. The changeover switch 21 selects any one output side terminal of the changeover switches 221 to 223 based on a switch changeover signal from the control device 60.

  With the above configuration, the switch box 20 switches any one of the antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 of the DUT 1 by the switching operation of the first switch group 200, the second switch group 220, and the switch 21. Selectable.

  The control device 60 outputs a switch change signal to the first changeover switch group 200, the second changeover switch group 220, and the changeover switch 21 of the switch box 20, and output signals from the antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 of the DUT1. Are sequentially input to the switch box 20. For example, when the control device 60 selects the output signal of the antenna output port # 0 of the DUT 1, the first input side terminal of the changeover switch 201, the first input side terminal of the changeover switch 221, and the changeover switch A switch switching signal is output to the switch box 20 so that the first input side terminal 21 is selected. For example, when the control device 60 selects the output signal of the antenna output port # 101 of the DUT 1, the sixth input side terminal of the changeover switch 217, the fifth input side terminal of the changeover switch 223, A switch switching signal is output to the switch box 20 so that the third input side terminal of the switch 21 is selected.

  Next, capture data output from the switch box 20 will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the capture data 70 output from the switch box 20 includes output signals of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 indicated by “Port # 0” to “Port # 101”, and output signals. And a guard time signal indicated as “guard time”.

  Each output signal is a signal output in a state where each changeover switch in the switch box 20 is set to a predetermined position. That is, each output signal is an example of a selection output signal that is output in a state in which the switch box 20 selects any one of the plurality of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101.

  Each guard time signal is a signal output during switching of each changeover switch in the switch box 20. That is, the guard time signal is an example of a switching output signal that is output when the switch box 20 switches a plurality of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101.

  That is, the switch box 20 outputs data in which an output signal at the time of selection and an output signal at the time of switching alternately appear as one capture data 70 (capture data), and is an example of a selection unit.

  The time length of each output signal and each guard time signal can be set according to the switching time of the switch box 20 and the analysis time of the analysis unit 43, for example, both can be set to 20 milliseconds. In this case, the capture data 70 is composed of data of a short time of 4.08 seconds.

  The capture data 70 output from the switch box 20 is configured as described above, and is stored in the memory unit 42 after being processed by the RF unit 30 and the IQ conversion unit 41. The analysis unit 43 can perform a predetermined analysis by reading out the output signals (selection output signals) of the antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 from the memory unit 42 sequentially or in any order.

  If the capture data 70 stored in the memory unit 42 is output to the outside of the signal analysis device 10 as a single file and the capture data 70 is analyzed by an external device (for example, a server), faster analysis is possible. Processing is preferable.

  Next, the operation of the signal analyzing apparatus 10 in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  The control unit 61 of the control device 60 initializes a variable n indicating the antenna output port number of the DUT 1 (step S11).

  The control unit 61 inputs measurement parameters for performing a predetermined measurement from the operation unit 11, and sets the measurement parameters in the DUT 1, the RF unit 30, the signal analysis unit 40, and the display device 50 (step S12).

  The frequency band setting unit 63 of the control device 60 reads the frequency information of the output signals output from the antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 of the DUT 1 from the frequency table 62 (step S13). As a result, the frequency band setting unit 63 can grasp the frequency of each output signal output from the antenna output ports # 0 to # 101.

  The control unit 61 outputs a predetermined control signal to the DUT 1 and starts signal output from each antenna output port of the DUT 1 (step S14). Thereafter, the DUT 1 is in a state of continuously outputting a signal to be analyzed from each antenna output port.

  The control unit 61 outputs a trigger signal to the switch box 20 and the memory unit 42 in order to start capturing the output signal of the DUT 1 (step S15).

  The controller 61 outputs a switch switching signal for causing the switch box 20 to select the antenna output port n of the DUT 1, and causes the switch box 20 to select the antenna output port n (step S16).

  The frequency band setting unit 63 sets the oscillation frequency of the local oscillator 32 to a predetermined frequency based on the frequency information of the antenna output port n, and sets the pass bandwidth of the BPF 34 to a predetermined value (step S17). As a result, a signal corresponding to the output signal of the antenna output port n can be output from the RF unit 30.

  The RF unit 30 converts the radio frequency signal from the antenna output port n into a signal having a predetermined frequency (step S18). Specifically, the ATT 31 attenuates the RF signal input from the switch box 20 to a predetermined level and outputs it to the mixer 33. The local oscillator 32 generates a local oscillation signal having a predetermined frequency and outputs it to the mixer 33. The mixer 33 mixes the RF signal output from the ATT 31 and the local oscillation signal from the local oscillator 32, converts the frequency into a signal having a predetermined frequency, and outputs the signal to the BPF 34. The BPF 34 filters the input signal, extracts a signal in a predetermined frequency domain, and outputs the signal to the ADC 35. The ADC 35 converts the output signal of the BPF 34 from an analog value to a digital value, and outputs it to the IQ conversion unit 41.

  The IQ conversion unit 41 converts the output signal of the antenna output port n, which is the output signal of the ADC 35, into I / Q data (step S19).

  The memory unit 42 stores the I / Q data of the antenna output port n in a predetermined memory area (step S20).

  The controller 61 increments the variable n (Step S21).

  The controller 61 determines whether or not the variable n has exceeded the number of antenna output ports 101 (step S22).

  If it is determined in step S22 that the variable n exceeds 101, the analysis unit 43 can perform predetermined signal analysis (step S23), and the display device 50 displays the signal analysis result (step S24). ).

  On the other hand, if it is not determined in step S22 that the variable n has exceeded 101, the process returns to step S16.

  Next, each processing by the signal analysis apparatus 10 in the present embodiment and the conventional one will be compared and explained based on FIG.

  First, as shown in FIG. 6A, the conventional one performs DUT control, signal capture, and signal analysis for each antenna output port. Therefore, in the prior art, a great deal of processing time is required as the number of antenna output ports increases. Further, in the conventional device, since the capture data exists for each antenna output port, the capture data increases as the antenna output port increases, and it is not easy to handle the capture data. Furthermore, in the conventional system, when the frequency is different for each antenna output port, the signal is sequentially received and analyzed for each antenna output port, so that high-speed signal analysis is performed. I could not.

  For example, when using the antenna output port # 1, the DUT control uses the antenna output port # 1 and does not use the other antenna output ports. This control includes confirmation of the above, notification of starting signal capture, and the like.

On the other hand, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6B, the antenna output ports # 0 to #n are collectively subjected to DUT control, signal capture, and signal analysis. Therefore, in this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) Since the capture of the output signals of the DUT is completed at once, control of the DUT is facilitated, and signal analysis can be performed at a higher speed than before even when the antenna output ports are increased.
(2) Since it is only necessary to continuously output a signal to be analyzed from the DUT when capturing data is acquired, unlike the conventional one, it is not necessary to perform on / off control of the signal for each antenna output port of the DUT.
(3) Since the capture data is combined into one, it becomes easy to handle the capture data. In particular, when capturing data is transmitted to the outside of the signal analyzing apparatus 10, there is only one file including the capturing data, which facilitates file transmission / reception and analysis.
(4) The frequency band setting unit 63 controls the local oscillator 32 and the BPF 34 of the RF unit 30 based on the frequency information stored in the frequency table 62, and sets the bandwidth of the RF signal to be captured. Therefore, even when the frequency is different for each antenna output port, high-speed signal analysis can be performed with a simple configuration.

  As described above, the signal analysis device 10 according to the present embodiment switches the connection between the plurality of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 of the DUT 1 and the memory unit 42, and outputs signals from the respective antenna output ports. Is stored, and the stored output signal is analyzed, so that even when the DUT 1 has a large number of antenna output ports, high-speed signal analysis can be performed with a simple configuration.

  Further, the signal analyzing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment stores in advance frequency information of output signals respectively output from the plurality of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101, and performs frequency conversion by the mixer 33 based on the stored frequency information. Since the predetermined frequency is set later, even when the frequency is different for each antenna output port, high-speed signal analysis can be performed with a simple configuration.

  Therefore, the signal analysis apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment performs high-speed signal analysis with a simple configuration even when the DUT 1 has a large number of antenna output ports # 0 to # 101 and the frequency differs for each antenna output port. Can do.

  As described above, the signal analysis device and the signal analysis method according to the present invention have the effect that high-speed measurement can be performed with a simple configuration even when the device under test has a large number of antenna output ports. The present invention is useful as a signal analysis device and a signal analysis method for analyzing a signal transmitted from a MIMO terminal device.

In the selection step, a selection output signal output in a state where any one of the plurality of antenna output ports is selected, and a switching output signal output in switching when switching the plurality of antenna output ports are output. The output signal sequentially output from each of the plurality of antenna output ports is output as captured data (70) in which the output signal at the time of selection and the output signal at the time of switching are alternately connected. And
In the output signal storing step, the captured data is stored,
In the signal analysis step, the output signal at the time of selection of the captured data stored in the output signal storage step is analyzed.
A signal analysis method characterized by the above.
