A capacitor is a passive element capable of storing energy, and receives a clock signal generated by a clock generator. The capacitor is connected to the clock generator. The capacitor removes the DC component from the clock signal generated by the clock generator and passes the RF (Radio Frequency) signal. However, the capacitor passes the RF signal, and the rate at which it is charged and discharged depends on the capacitance of the capacitor. The smaller the capacity of the capacitor, the faster the charging and discharging speed, and the larger the capacity, the slower the charging and discharging rate. Accordingly, the shape of the pulse generated depending on the capacitance of the capacitor is changed. When a capacitor with a small capacity receives a clock signal, it is charged at a high rate and discharges at a high rate when charging is completed. As a result, when a clock signal passes through a capacitor having a small capacity, charging and discharging are performed rapidly, and a pulse having a narrow width is generated. Conversely, when a capacitor having a large capacity receives a clock signal, charging and discharging are performed at a slow rate, so that a pulse having a wide width is generated.
The high-frequency filter is a filter using at least one of a passive element such as a resistor, a coil, a capacitor, and an operational amplifier (OP-AMP) as an active element. In the same way as the above-described capacitor, the DC component is removed from a clock signal generated in the clock generator , And passes only a part of an RF (Radio Frequency) signal to generate a pulse waveform. The width of the generated waveform can be controlled by adjusting the value of each element used in the high-frequency filter.

3B is a timing diagram illustrating signals generated in each device of the system for generating a short pulse in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
A clock signal having a preset frequency is generated from the clock generator.
The generated clock signal passes through the pulse generator, and a pulse is generated from the capacitor. When the pulse generator is a capacitor, when the clock signal is at the rising edge (350), since the capacitor charges and discharges a positive value, a convex pulse in the positive direction is generated, and the clock signal 360 ), Since the capacitor charges and discharges the negative value, a convex pulse is generated in the negative direction. As described above, since the charging and discharging speed is changed according to the capacity of the capacitor, the width of the pulse can be controlled by controlling the capacitance of the capacitor.
The pulse generated from the pulse generator is input to the input signal of the comparator, and the comparator determines whether the input signal has a value larger than the
By amplifying the generated short pulse using an amplifier, a short pulse having an amplitude larger than the amplitude of the generated short pulse can be generated.
4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of generating a short pulse according to an embodiment of the present invention.
And generates a clock signal (S410). And generates a clock signal having a predetermined frequency. Unlike the conventional short pulse generating method, the short pulse generating method according to an embodiment of the present invention can generate a short pulse with only one clock signal.
The generated clock signal is passed through a pulse generator to obtain a predetermined pulse (S420). The clock signal generated from the clock generator passes through a pulse generator connected to the clock generator. As the clock signal passes through the pulse generator, the DC component of the clock signal is removed by the capacitor and the component of the RF signal is passed through the pulse generator. A predetermined pulse is generated through the pulse generator. When the pulse generator is a capacitor, the capacitor is charged at the time when the clock signal passing through the capacitor changes, that is, on the rising edge or the falling edge. The discharging is started again from the point of time when the charging is completed. Thus, the clock signal passes through the capacitor, and by charging and discharging the capacitor, a pulse having a convex shape can be obtained. At this time, the width of the obtained pulse depends on the capacitance of the capacitor. When the capacity of the capacitor is small, the speed at which the capacitor is charged and the rate at which the capacitor is discharged are fast, so that the charging time and discharging time do not take long, so that the width of the acquired pulse becomes narrow. On the contrary, when the capacity of the capacitor is large, since the charging speed of the capacitor and the discharging speed are slow, the charging time and discharging time are long, so that the width of the acquired pulse is widened. Therefore, the width of the short pulse to be obtained can be controlled by controlling the width of the pulse obtained by adjusting the capacitance of the capacitor.
A short pulse is generated from the pulse obtained by using the comparator (S430). And determines whether the value of the acquired pulse is greater than a preset reference value by using the acquired pulse and the preset reference value as input signals. If the value of the obtained pulse is larger than the reference value, the comparator outputs '1' constantly regardless of the difference between the acquired pulse value and the reference value. If the value of the obtained pulse is smaller than the reference value, the comparator outputs '0' constantly. When the value of the obtained pulse is greater than the reference value, '1' is output. Therefore, '1' can be output from the acquired pulse at the rising edge of the clock signal among the acquired pulses. However, And outputs '0' from one pulse. The reference value of the comparator can be controlled to adjust the width of the short pulse generated in the comparator. As the reference value increases, the width of the short pulse generated becomes narrower, and as the reference value becomes lower, the width of the short pulse generated becomes wider.
The generated short pulse is amplified (S440). If it is necessary to generate a short pulse having an amplitude larger than a predetermined amplitude of the generated short pulse, the amplifier is connected to amplify the amplitude of the short pulse generated.
Although it is described in FIG. 4 that steps S410 to S440 are sequentially executed, this is merely illustrative of the technical idea of an embodiment of the present invention. In other words, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be implemented by changing the order described in FIG. 4 without departing from the essential characteristics of an embodiment of the present invention, or by executing one of steps S410 to S440 It should be noted that FIG. 4 is not limited to the time-series order, since it can be variously modified and modified by being executed in parallel.
Meanwhile, the processes shown in FIG. 4 can be implemented as computer-readable codes on a computer-readable recording medium. A computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording apparatuses in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. That is, a computer-readable recording medium includes a magnetic storage medium (e.g., ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, etc.), an optical reading medium (e.g., CD ROM, And the like). The computer-readable recording medium may also be distributed over a networked computer system so that computer readable code can be stored and executed in a distributed manner.
