Abstract

The microwave transmitter of the present invention can perform two-terminal dynamic modulation with respect to the voltage supply terminal and the RF input terminal of a RF power amplifier. The microwave transmitter of the present invention comprises a first modulator and a second modulator, The first modulator uses the baseband digital delta-sigma modulation technique to process the envelope signal and outputs this signal to the voltage supply terminal of the RF power amplifier as a supply voltage. The second modulator uses the baseband digital pre-distortion technique to process the IQ-modulated carrier and outputs this signal to the RF input terminal of the RF power amplifier as a RF input signal. Thereby, the RF power amplifier can highly efficiently reconstruct the power-amplified RF modulated carrier without distortion at the RF output terminal. In addition, the baseband digital processing techniques used in the two modulators make the microwave transmitter of the present invention suitable for multi-mode operation.

Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to a microwave transmitter, and more particularly to a multimode transmission function for a transmitter specification applicable to various wireless communication systems. Microwave transmitter and method therefor. [Prior Art] In wireless communication handheld devices, the main DC power consumption comes from the radiation = power amplifier. Therefore, the RF power amplifier can have a high linearity without distorting the amplified signal, and can simultaneously have high efficiency to prolong the communication time, which is the research focus of the RF power amplifier design. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple (OFDM) digital modulation technology, which is widely used in future wireless communication systems, has obvious time-varying wave packet characteristics, and its peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is much higher than existing wireless communication. The system is high, and the wave packet change time is more severe, so the linearity requirement for RF power amplification crying will be higher. w According to the prior art, the traditional type of RF power amplifier design will follow the linearity and efficiency of each other, and the increase of linearity will inevitably lead to the decrease of efficiency. In particular, the power control of the traditional microwave transmitter still maintains the DC bias voltage at the time of high power output, resulting in excessive consumption of the direct output rate, which makes the dynamic operation efficiency of the RF power amplifier. The Republic of China Announcement No. 578369 discloses a high-efficiency power amplifier system that dynamically adjusts the power supply of the RF power amplifier according to the power wheel size to reduce the power consumption caused by the DC partial house at a low power output. However, in order to amplify the RF-modulated carrier with time-varying, it is necessary to further improve the RF power amplifier. 6 200803344 mi Follow the change of the amplitude of the wave packet of the output RF modulation carrier, and ^ can greatly improve its dynamic S Penetration rate.

Visit Gong 1 = _"7 map' shows the block diagram of the 1EER transmitter architecture, \ is used to separate the wave packet signal and phase modulation carrier by analog circuit, and then the RF modulation carrier of the wave packet is sometimes detected by wave packet detection. : After the second 艮 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 102 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 104 The power supply and the phase-modulated carrier (10) can be power amplified by the two-frequency power amplifier and the 1G6-high-efficiency operation mode because there is no fluctuation of the wave packet. The output RF carrier amplitude of the switched-type RF power amplifier 1〇6 is proportional to the phase-modulated carrier of the DC-packed signal, and the phase-modulated carrier of the wave packet signal is reduced. The RF modulated carrier of the time-varying wave packet is 1〇7. - As shown in the block diagram of the second figure, the S-type modulator 105 architecture includes pulse see modulation | § 201, switched amplifier 2〇2 and low-pass filter 2〇3, and the impulse modulator 201 will input the wave The packet signal is converted into a second-order pulse signal, which is proportional to the amplitude of the wave packet signal input, and is amplified by the switched amplification state 202, and then obtained through the low-pass filter 2〇3 to obtain the amplified wave packet. Signal, this architecture can simultaneously have high linearity and high efficiency 7 200803344 features, but only suitable for amplifying low frequency wave packet signal 103. Since the switching RF power amplifiers 1〇6 and S-type modulators 105 used in EER transmitters have high efficiency and can effectively reduce the DC power consumption, they are suitable for use in various wireless communication handheld devices. However, according to the prior art, the EER transmitter uses the analogy technique to separate the wave packet signal 103 from the phase modulation carrier 1〇4, and finally reconstructs the resulting RF modulated carrier 107 at the output. The modulation accuracy is not as good as that of the conventional microwave transmitter using the IQ modulation technique. As precise. After the wave packet signal 1〇3 passes through the low-pass filter 2〇3 of the s-type modulator Xin 105, the high-frequency component is partially filtered, resulting in the amplified wave packet signal in the low-voltage region with high-frequency components. There will be distortions. As shown in the third figure, it is impossible to reproduce the original deep depression position in the area. This will cause the RF modulation carrier 107 at the output to generate a spectrum re-growth phenomenon, which is difficult to meet the specifications of the output spectrum of the wireless communication system. . In addition, the 'pulse width modulator 2〇1 requires a signal source capable of generating a triangular wave', which also increases the complexity of the system implementation and increases the distortion of the RF modulation carrier 107 at the output. . In order to have better modulation accuracy, the US invention patent No. 6377784 _ k produces a polar coordinate modulation architecture, as shown in the fourth figure. This architecture implements a rectangular coordinate to polar coordinate converter 4〇1 based on the fundamental frequency digital technology, which enables the 1Q signal to be accurately converted into a corresponding wave packet signal and phase signal, and the 'wave packet signal is converted into a digital analogy. The linear voltage modulator 02 is fed to dynamically adjust the RF power amplifier 21f packet with the fluctuation amplitude of the wave packet. In addition, the phase signal is sent to the phase modulating function generator 403 to generate a phase modulated carrier, and then sent to the RF power amplifier 2; Compared with the eer transmitter architecture, the polar modulation uses the fundamental frequency digital technology to accurately separate the wave packet and phase, and the RF modulated carrier generated at the output can thus obtain higher modulation accuracy. However, the linear voltage modulator used in 200803344 has high efficiency characteristics, so Luya is not as good as the S-type modulator 105. In addition, the encountered and x-right regimen is usually not as good as the EER transmitter. The modulation signal 'a sharp change in the signal vector or QAM degree' will have a pure tone phase at this time. (10) The bandwidth is usually not enough to produce such a coherent generator 403. The polar coordinate modulation architecture is currently only successful; , the phase modulation carrier ' _ on the system, 譬 ... still can not be made to have a zero crossover shot 'but but the transmitter, such as 2G side with; 4 coffee launch her shot, when switching _ power m 〇 6 When the voltage supply terminal encounters a large wave packet signal 1Ό3 voltage, the input end needs to input a large phase modulation carrier 1〇4 power, so that the switch can be switched between the saturation region and the cutoff region to maintain the switching RF. The power amplifier is operated in high efficiency mode. However, when the voltage supply terminal encounters a small voltage of the f-package signal 103, the input of the same large phase modulation carrier 1 〇 4 power causes the switching RF power amplifier 1 〇 6 gain and efficiency are reduced, and also causes the radio frequency input. The phase modulation carrier 104 of the terminal leaks to the output terminal ^ which affects the quality of the RF modulation carrier 107 at the output. Therefore, U.S. Patent No. 6,256,482 proposes a method for dynamically adjusting the phase modulation carrier power of the RF input terminal for the amplitude of the optical wave packet for the EER transmitter architecture, which can effectively improve the dynamic operation efficiency of the EER transmitter, but in the above-mentioned EER architecture. There is no solution to the problem of lack of modulation accuracy. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the fact that the RF power amplifier used in the conventional microwave transmitter needs to make a trade-off between linearity and efficiency, the superior EER transmitter architecture is used. 200803344 = ::: Considering high linearity and high efficiency' The main iron points include straight, fii aΓ insufficient, the pulse visibility modulator is easy to lose the wave packet signal, and the carrier input power will cause the dynamic operation efficiency to drop. However, the proposed method cannot be completely completed. Overcoming ^ Therefore, the present invention provides an innovative microwave transmitter architecture, which is a large-scale production and control of the fundamental frequency digital processing technology, which can improve the accuracy of the signal processing = easy to adapt to various wireless communication system modulation specifications to achieve multi-mode transmission of the invention The purpose of the present invention is to provide a microwave transmitter architecture, which is to change the degree of design of the two-kilometer integrated circuit by using a large-scale introduction of the fundamental frequency digital processing technology.

Change the amplification efficiency by using the fundamental frequency difference integral modulation technique, and use the pre-distortion 1 (four) carrier to make /, have the dynamic wave packet characteristics The carrier input function can be flexibly adjusted to improve dynamic operation efficiency and carrier leakage. 卞曰σσ To achieve the above purpose, the microwave transmitter of the present invention applies a double to the supply voltage terminal and the RF input terminal of the RF power amplification 1 § The terminal dynamic modulation, the modulation mode may include wave packet modulation, phase modulation and IQ modulation, wherein the modulation signal at the supply voltage end may be a wave packet signal, a pre-distortion wave packet signal or a modulation signal containing a wave packet component; the modulation signal at the RF input end may be It is a 5-week carrier, or a phase-modulated wave with a wave packet component. The wave packet signal of the microwave transmitter of the present invention is processed by the fundamental frequency digital processing to generate a pulse width modulator required for processing the wave packet signal. In place of the device, the differential-integral modulator does not require a triangular wave 200803344 source, and is easy to integrate into the baseband digital circuit. This =, the phase modulation carrier of the microwave transmitter of the present invention for the amplitude of the packet is 2 = i for 7 generations, allowing for the change of the fortune __ can adjust the η problem elastically, and the second ‘hunting improves the dynamic operation efficiency and the carrier wave carrier and other modulated carriers Processing, when the wave packet is large, U: 'reconstruction of the resulting power at the output of the RF power amplifier does not cause any distortion phenomenon.

The square and the square root of the operation are directly realized by the digital circuit, and can be referred to Ray Andraka. The CORDIC algorithm disclosed in 1998, 2, 22-24 B, FPGA, r98. Proceedings of the 1998 ACM/SIG, symposium on Field programmable gate arrays, 191-200, is required by iterative approximation. The obtained wave packet size, the obtained digital wave packet signal is converted into a second-order signal by a differential integral modulator 5〇2, and the structure of the differential integral modulator 5〇2 can be referred to as shown in FIG. The device can be analog-like differential integration modulation, analog pulse width modulator, analog multi-level or multi-order differential integration, digital difference integral modulator, digital pulse width modulator, digital multi-level or more Order difference integral modulator. The sixth figure shows the first-order difference integral modulation. After the input signal X is integrated, it is output by the quantizer as exceeding the quantization level, and vice versa, and the output result is negatively fed back to the input end. This is the action of the difference, and its transfer function can be expressed as follows: Y = X^(l-z'l)e, (2) The quantization noise introduced by the 表戈表置器 can be found from the above formula. The output signal Υ is equal to the input signal X plus the difference quantization _, and the difference 12 200803344 is equivalent to the action of pushing the signal energy to the high frequency in the frequency domain, and the signal γ at the output end is a second-order pulse signal. The switch can be applied to the high-efficiency switching amplifier 503 to amplify the signal, and after it is filtered by the low-pass filter 504 to the high-frequency quantization noise, the amplified input wave packet waveform can be obtained. The amplified wave packet signal is input to the supply voltage terminal of the RF power amplifier 5〇8 such that the RF power amplifier 508 output carrier is amplitude modulated by the varying wave packet signal from the supply voltage terminal. In the pre-distorted IQ modulation signal processing path, the transmitter architecture of the present invention comprises: a first predistorter 5〇5, a digital-to-analog converter 5〇6, and an IQ modulator 507, and the present invention passes the input jq signal through the digital number a predistortion state 505, and converting the pre-distorted IQ signal into a corresponding analog signal via the digital-to-analog converter 5〇6, and then using the IQ modulator/5〇7 seven-joy jQ-modulated carrier as the RF power The RF input of the amplifier 5〇8 is to enable the input carrier to be able to play the variable carrier input power because of the variable wave packet characteristics, so as to improve the dynamic operation efficiency and the carrier ς 题 但Pre-distortion processing, when the fish, the ^ number is combined, the radio frequency modulation carrier is reconstructed after the RF power is discharged from the RF output || the output is not generated. Therefore, in different embodiments, the 1q reduction of the round can also be The output signal is first input to the wave packet generator 501 and the digital-to-analog converter 506 through 5 〇 1 Λ 505 ′. Using itr, the wave transmitter architecture, the first pre-distortion please ==! The nonlinear relationship between the transmitter wheel and the output signal. The nonlinearity from the RF power amplifier 508 ^:::= rate amplification can be Amplifier circuits such as terpenoids, terpenoids, terpenoids, C-type D-pain, E-class or F-class. The circuit function includes changing the IQ base frequency loss-505's amber, wave packet signal, phase signal or shot 13 200803344 frequency carrier amplitude 'to compensate for the nonlinear phenomenon of the components contained in the transmitter circuit', in order to improve the output RF The modulation accuracy and linearity parameters of the modulated carrier. Figure 7 is a schematic diagram showing the operation concept of the transmitter of the present invention. The output signal amplitude of the transmitter and the amplitude variation of the wave packet are as shown by the characteristic 701. When the amplitude of the low wave packet is exceeded, the RF carrier signal of the input terminal leaks to the output end. The output signal amplitude has a fixed lower limit, and the high wave packet amplitude has a linear relationship with the output signal amplitude. The predistorter can cause the transmitter's output signal amplitude to produce a linear relationship with the predistorted IQ modulated signal as characteristic 702 'at a low output signal amplitude, and a high output signal amplitude to cause saturation. Fixed upper limit. The characteristics 7〇2 and 703 just show the mutual compensation relationship of the multiplication form, so when the two path signals are combined with the RF power amplifier 508, the linear relationship between the output signal amplitude and the input signal amplitude can be obtained, as shown by the characteristic. The benefits realized by the hardware in the embodiment of the present invention include that the wave packet generator 501, the differential integration modulator 502 and the first predistorter 505 are implemented by a fundamental frequency digital processing method, and the high efficiency switching amplifier 503 is provided. The low pass filter 504 can be implemented using a baseband analog signal processing technique, while the digital to analog converter 506 utilizes a baseband mixed signal processing technique. All of the above circuits can be collectively referred to as a boosted multimode operational efficiency baseband processor 509. Since the existing baseband signal processing chip design can be quite powerful, the system can be applied to multi-mode wireless systems. If the function of the multimode operation rate baseband processor 509 is disabled, the remaining IQ modulator 507 and RF power amplifier 508 are combined to form an inefficient but high linearity conventional IQ modulation. The microwave transmitter architecture 510, if the function of the multi-mode operation efficiency baseband processor 509 is enabled, is improved. The 200803344 f is a multi-mode microwave transmitter architecture with high efficiency and high linearity. This means that the conventional IQ modulated microwave transmitter architecture can be seen as a specific example of the present embodiment, and thus the following two wireless handheld device transceiver chip architectures embodying the transmitter of the present invention are further extended as follows. In the eighth diagram, a block diagram of a wireless handheld device and a receiving chip for implementing the transmitter of the present invention is shown. In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, the low efficiency transmitter architecture employed in conventional wireless handheld transceiver chips can be augmented by the native jrt path to form the high efficiency transmitter architecture of the present invention. The wireless transceiver chip includes a baseband processor (10), a radio frequency processor, an 802-frequency power amplifier, and a three-part, RF power amplifier 803 output: clock^2, which transmits the signal. Based on the fundamental frequency signal processing chip tl function, as long as the present invention improves the multi-mode operation efficiency, the fundamental frequency is widely seen in the baseband processor 801, which can greatly improve the wireless inch = the efficiency of the old projector, and at the same time Suitable for multi-mode operation. The transceiver chip changes the traditional wireless handheld design operation efficiency. According to the teachings of this description, the enhanced multi-frequency fundamental frequency processing can be developed to improve the multi-mode operation efficiency. As shown in the figure of the nine, the chip 901 can be equipped with the transmitter of the transceiver chip 9 () and the efficiency of the transmitter is smashed. 1 has the advantage that it can be greatly improved under multiple operations - 1 9GHZPC ^ ^ example in the hard work" The invention has been completed in the gentleman's office. The Bayer segment is applied to the CDMA2000 1X system, and has a material-reduction transmitter, and its towel-based positioning technology is a product realization i. His mixed signal and analog circuit is based on the existing 1C 在 in the transmitter integration test, and the FPGA generates a data of 200303344 22, ^ Msymb 〇 ls / s (^ intensity modulation signal as the base frequency wheel 1 into, The switching amplifier 503 of the wave packet signal has a DC supply value which is related to the output power of the transmitter. The larger the wave packet amplitude due to the large field transmission, the larger the DC supply voltage value is also required. If the DC supply voltage is set at 3·3 V, it is suitable for emission test results with a control range from 13 dBm to 22 dBm. The test reference number includes the error vector magnitude used to measure the modulation accuracy (EVMj) , the adjacent channel power ratio (ACpR) used to measure linearity, and the conversion efficiency (ConvEff) of DC power used to measure transmitter efficiency to RF power. The EVM value in Figure 10 is about 5.8 〇/〇, ACpR The value is about 48 dBc, which meets the specifications of the CDMA2000 lx system. If the first predistorter 505 can be continuously adjusted, the EVM and ACpR values can be improved. The c〇nvEff value is within the specified power control range. Nearly 48%, the conversion success rate increase efficiency (PAE) is about 45%, which is far superior to the transmitter efficiency of existing products. In addition, the important characteristics of the transmitter of the present invention, r φ , ie EVM value, can be found from the tenth figure. The ACPR value and the ConvEff value are almost independent of the output power. However, the electrical parameters of the traditional microwave transmitter architecture are closely related to the output power rate, and the EVM value and the ACPR value are relative to the second rate (ConvEff). Or PAE) is a mutual trade-off relationship. Therefore, the advantages of the microwave transmitter of the present invention are capable of maintaining a fixed electrical parameter quality when faced with different operating modes and requiring different output powers. 'Please refer to FIG. 11' The block diagram of the architecture of the invention for increasing the bandwidth of the wave packet is shown in the embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the embodiment shown in the fifth figure is improved, and the transmission frequency of the microwave transmitter is increased, and the transmitter architecture has the same path. The fl5 tiger processing path 'one path is wave packet 5 tiger processing, the other channel 为 a is 16 200803344 pre-distortion and delay IQ modulation signal processing, the two paths simultaneously supply the RF power amplifier and the RF input terminal The dual-end dynamic modulation.

The source 114 and the low pass filter 115, the present invention generates the corresponding wave packet signal by the input IQ signal through the wave packet generator m, and the obtained digital wave packet signal passes through the first predistortion state and the delay control unit 112. A difference integral modulator 113 converts f at least a second order signal, and the difference integral modulator 113 of the at least second order output can reduce the oversampling rate required in the differential integration, so the difference integral modulator 113 for the same operating frequency In terms of the more suitable for the communication system of the horse data transmission rate;

The input carrier can flexibly adjust the carrier input power due to the variation of the wave packet characteristics, thereby improving the dynamic operation efficiency and the carrier leakage. However, the IQ modulation carrier is combined with the wave packet signal due to the pre-distortion processing. The RF-modulated carrier after the power amplification is reconstructed at the output of the RF power amplifier 118 does not cause any distortion: f The delay control unit is used to coordinate the two-way signal processing so that the signals of the two paths are synchronized.
