Description

電力増幅装置および通信装置Power amplification device and communication device
 本発明は、電力増幅装置に関し、特には、テレビ放送の送信や移動体通信を行う通信装置などに使用されるドハティアンプに関する。 The present invention relates to a power amplifying device, and more particularly, to a Doherty amplifier used in a communication device that performs transmission of a television broadcast or mobile communication.
 テレビ放送の送信や移動体通信を行う通信装置は、低消費電力を求められる場合、信号の増幅を行う電力増幅装置として、高効率なドハティアンプを備えていることが多い。 When a low power consumption is required, a communication apparatus that performs television broadcast transmission or mobile communication is often provided with a highly efficient Doherty amplifier as a power amplification apparatus that performs signal amplification.
 図1は、ドハティアンプの一般的な構成を示すブロック図である。 FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a general configuration of a Doherty amplifier.
 図1に示すドハティアンプでは、端子1に入力された入力信号であるRF信号は、90°ハイブリッドカプラ2にて2つに分配される。なお、90°ハイブリッドカプラ2におけるRF信号が入力される入力端子とは別の入力端子は、吸収抵抗3を介して接地されている。 In the Doherty amplifier shown in FIG. 1, the RF signal that is an input signal input to the terminal 1 is distributed into two by the 90 ° hybrid coupler 2. An input terminal different from the input terminal to which the RF signal is input in the 90 ° hybrid coupler 2 is grounded via the absorption resistor 3.
 90°ハイブリッドカプラ2にて分配されたRF信号の一方は、キャリアアンプ4および伝送線路5を介して接続点6へ伝送され、他方は、ピークアンプ7を介して接続点6へ伝送される。各RF信号は接続点6で合成され、その合成されたRF信号は伝送線路8を介して端子9から出力される。 One of the RF signals distributed by the 90 ° hybrid coupler 2 is transmitted to the connection point 6 via the carrier amplifier 4 and the transmission line 5, and the other is transmitted to the connection point 6 via the peak amplifier 7. The respective RF signals are synthesized at the connection point 6, and the synthesized RF signal is output from the terminal 9 via the transmission line 8.
 ここで、伝送線路8は、端子1に入力されるRF信号の1/4波長の電気長を有する伝送線路である。また、端子9に接続される負荷に対する伝送線路8の特性インピーダンスは、端子9から見た負荷インピーダンスをZoutとすると、((Zout)/2)1/2であり、接続点6から見た負荷インピーダンスがZout/2となる。 Here, the transmission line 8 is a transmission line having an electrical length of ¼ wavelength of the RF signal input to the terminal 1. Further, the characteristic impedance of the transmission line 8 to the load connected to the terminal 9, when the load impedance seen from the terminal 9, Zout, ((Zout) 2/ 2) 1/2, as viewed from the connection point 6 The load impedance is Zout / 2.
 伝送線路5は、端子1に入力されるRF信号の1/4波長の電気長を有する伝送線路である。また、端子9に接続される負荷に対する伝送線路5の特性インピーダンスはZoutであり、ピークアンプ7がオフのときに、キャリアアンプ4の出力端子から見た負荷インピーダンスがZout×2となる。 The transmission line 5 is a transmission line having an electrical length of ¼ wavelength of the RF signal input to the terminal 1. Further, the characteristic impedance of the transmission line 5 with respect to the load connected to the terminal 9 is Zout. When the peak amplifier 7 is off, the load impedance viewed from the output terminal of the carrier amplifier 4 is Zout × 2.
 上記のドハティアンプにおいて、端子1に入力されるRF信号の周波数が変更された場合、伝送線路5および8の電気長がRF信号の1/4波長からずれてしまう。その結果、キャリアアンプ4の出力端子およびピークアンプ7の出力端子から見た負荷インピーダンスが所望の値からずれてしまい、ドハティアンプの効率が低下するという問題が生じる。 In the above Doherty amplifier, when the frequency of the RF signal input to the terminal 1 is changed, the electrical lengths of the transmission lines 5 and 8 are deviated from the quarter wavelength of the RF signal. As a result, the load impedance viewed from the output terminal of the carrier amplifier 4 and the output terminal of the peak amplifier 7 deviates from a desired value, resulting in a problem that the efficiency of the Doherty amplifier is lowered.
 このため、効率の良いドハティアンプを使用するためには、RF信号の周波数ごとにドハティアンプを用意しなければならなかった。 For this reason, in order to use an efficient Doherty amplifier, it was necessary to prepare a Doherty amplifier for each frequency of the RF signal.
 これに対して特許文献1および2には、伝送線路の電気長を入力信号の周波数に応じて変更することが可能な増幅器が記載されている。 On the other hand, Patent Documents 1 and 2 describe amplifiers that can change the electrical length of a transmission line according to the frequency of an input signal.
 特許文献1に記載の増幅器は、複数のマイクロストリップ線路と、それらのマイクロストリップ線路の接続関係を切り替える複数のRFスイッチとを有する伝送線路を備え、RF信号の周波数に応じて、伝送線路の電気長がRF信号の1/4波長となるように、RFスイッチを切り替えている。 The amplifier described in Patent Document 1 includes a transmission line having a plurality of microstrip lines and a plurality of RF switches that switch connection relations between the microstrip lines. The RF switch is switched so that the length is ¼ wavelength of the RF signal.
 特許文献2に記載の増幅器は、それぞれ電気長の異なる複数の伝送線路を備え、入力信号の周波数に応じて、入力信号が実際に伝送される伝送線路を、上記の複数の伝送線路のいずれかに切り替えている。 The amplifier described in Patent Document 2 includes a plurality of transmission lines having different electrical lengths, and a transmission line through which an input signal is actually transmitted according to the frequency of the input signal is any of the plurality of transmission lines. It has been switched to.
 特許文献1および2に記載の増幅器では、入力信号の周波数が変更されても、伝送線路の電気長を入力信号の1/4波長とすることが可能になるため、RF信号の周波数ごとにドハティアンプを用意しなくてもよくなる。 In the amplifiers described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, even if the frequency of the input signal is changed, the electrical length of the transmission line can be set to ¼ wavelength of the input signal. There is no need to prepare an amplifier.

 しかしながら、特許文献1および2に記載の増幅器では、複数の伝送線路や複数のマイクロストリップ線路を切り替えることで、伝送線路の電気長を調整するものであるため、伝送線路の電気長を細やかに調整するためには、数多くの伝送線路、マイクロストリップ線およびRFスイッチといったものが必要となり、コストが増加してしまうという問題がある。 However, in the amplifiers described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, since the electrical length of the transmission line is adjusted by switching a plurality of transmission lines and a plurality of microstrip lines, the electrical length of the transmission line is finely adjusted. In order to do this, a large number of transmission lines, microstrip lines, and RF switches are required, which increases the cost.
 本発明は、コストの増加を抑制しながら、伝送線路の電気長を細やかに調整することが可能な電力増幅装置および通信装置を提供することを目的とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide a power amplification device and a communication device that can finely adjust the electrical length of a transmission line while suppressing an increase in cost.

 また、電力増幅装置10は、プリント基板11における伝送線路21および22が形成された面と、プリント基板12における伝送線路23が形成された面とが密着するように、プリント基板11および12を互いに固定する固定機構を有している。 Further, the power amplifying apparatus 10 connects the printed circuit boards 11 and 12 to each other so that the surface of the printed circuit board 11 on which the transmission lines 21 and 22 are formed and the surface of the printed circuit board 12 on which the transmission line 23 is formed are in close contact. A fixing mechanism for fixing is provided.
 本実施形態の固定機構は、プリント基板11に設けられたネジ穴31および32と、プリント基板12に設けられたスリット41および42と、ネジ穴31およびスリット41に挿通されるネジ51と、ネジ穴32およびスリット42に挿通されるネジ52とを備える。 The fixing mechanism of the present embodiment includes screw holes 31 and 32 provided in the printed circuit board 11, slits 41 and 42 provided in the printed circuit board 12, screws 51 inserted through the screw holes 31 and slit 41, screws And a screw 52 inserted through the hole 32 and the slit 42.

 以上のような電力増幅装置10では、電力増幅装置10に入力される入力信号であるRF信号の周波数が変更された際には、ネジ51および52を緩め、プリント基板12をスライドさせることで、RF信号の周波数に応じて、伝送線路21~23で形成される実伝送線路の電気長がRF信号の1/4波長になるように、伝送線路23が伝送線路21および22と接触する接触長さを調整することで、電力増幅装置10の効率を向上させることが可能になる。 In the power amplifying device 10 as described above, when the frequency of the RF signal that is an input signal input to the power amplifying device 10 is changed, the screws 51 and 52 are loosened and the printed circuit board 12 is slid, The contact length at which the transmission line 23 is in contact with the transmission lines 21 and 22 so that the electrical length of the actual transmission line formed by the transmission lines 21 to 23 becomes a quarter wavelength of the RF signal according to the frequency of the RF signal. By adjusting the height, the efficiency of the power amplifying apparatus 10 can be improved.
 以上説明したように本実施形態によれば、伝送線路23が伝送線路21および22と接触する接触長さを調整することで、実伝送線路の電気長を調整することが可能になる。このため、数多くの伝送線路などを設けなくても、伝送線路の電気長を細やかに調整することが可能になる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the electrical length of the actual transmission line can be adjusted by adjusting the contact length at which the transmission line 23 contacts the transmission lines 21 and 22. For this reason, it is possible to finely adjust the electrical length of the transmission line without providing many transmission lines.
