Description

一种高阶F类功率放大电路及射频功率放大器 技术领域
本发明属于射频通信领域,尤其涉及一种高阶F类功率放大电路及射频功率放大器。
背景技术
随着“绿色通信”的广泛普及,高效率、低能耗的通信系统越来越受到消费市场的青睐。作为射频通信系统中信号发射机的末级模块,射频功率放大器消耗了发射机系统超过70%的能量,因此提高功率放大器的发射效率是降低能耗,实现“绿色通信”的关键,提高功率放大器的工作效率成为了学术界和产业界的研究热点。
F类功率放大器是一种开关功率放大器,理想情况下,其效率可以达到100%。F类功率放大器晶体管的输出负载阻抗比较特殊,除基波阻抗必须满足最佳负载阻抗需求外,高次谐波阻抗中,偶次谐波阻抗必须实现短路,奇次谐波阻抗必须实现开路状态,这样晶体管的输出电压波形为方波,输出电流波形为半正弦波,参见图1,同时,电压方波Vds与电流半正弦波Ids相位差为90°,电压波形与电流波形在时域上没有交叠,因此没有直流功率损耗,晶体管的能量全部转化为射频信号功率传输至负载,由此实现100%的工作效率。
对于F类功率放大器,当晶体管输出负载阻抗二次谐波短路、三次谐波开路时,晶体管漏极电流包含一次及二次谐波成分,漏极电压包含一次及三次谐波成分,此时功率放大器可以实现75%的效率;当晶体管输出负载阻抗二次与四次谐波短路、三次与五次谐波开路时,晶体管漏极电流包含一次、二次及四次谐波成分,漏极电压包含一次、三次及五次谐波成分,此时功率放大器可以实现83%的效率,以此类推,包含的谐波越高,则F类功放的效率越高。
但是,在实际F类功放电路设计中,由于各次谐波阻抗控制电路之间会相互影响,要想满足所有高阶偶次谐波阻抗短路,所有高阶奇次谐波开路的情况是很难的。一般来说,实际电路设计中往往只考虑到三次谐波阻抗。而对于实现更高阶的F类功放的谐波阻抗设计,现有技术可以达到最高到五次谐波阻抗控制,但是该技术在利用微带线结构进行谐波控制时,各次谐波阻抗控制电路相互之间会产生影响,如在进行二次及四次阻抗短路设计时,还需要额外考虑其对三次和五次谐波阻抗的影响,因此无法实现对各次谐波阻抗的独立控制,这就大大增加了电路设计者的设计复杂度,需要花费大量的时间进行电路仿真及调试。
技术问题
本发明实施例的目的在于提供一种高阶F类功率放大电路,旨在解决现有F类功率放大电路在实现高阶谐波阻抗控制时,无法实现对各次谐波阻抗的独立控制,设计复杂,调试困难的问题。

本发明实施例通过高次谐波阻抗控制单元实现了F类功率放大器的最高至五次谐波阻抗的精确控制,降低晶体管的能量损耗,提升功放效率,并且对各次谐波阻抗独立设计,使各次谐波阻抗控制电路互不影响,无需后期优化调试, 降低了设计的复杂度。
以下结合具体实施例对本发明的实现进行详细描述:
图2示出了本发明实施例提供的高阶F类功率放大电路的结构,为了便于说明,仅示出了与本发明相关的部分。
作为本发明一实施例,该高阶F类功率放大电路可以应用于任何射频功率放大器中,包括:

高次谐波阻抗控制单元12,用于对晶体管电流输入端的二次谐波至五次谐波分别独立控制阻抗匹配,高次谐波阻抗控制单元12的输入端与寄生参数调节单元11的输出端连接;
基波阻抗控制单元13,用于对晶体管输入端的基波独立控制阻抗匹配,基波阻抗控制单元13的输入端与高次谐波阻抗控制单元12的输出端连接,基波阻抗控制单元13的输出端与电容C1的一端连接,电容C1的另一端与负载连接。
在本发明实施例中,晶体管的寄生参量模型包括:晶体管漏极和源极间的寄生电容Cds、寄生电感Ld和封装寄生电容Cp等。
作为本发明一实施例,寄生参数调节单元(网络)11可以由L型微带线结构构成。
作为本发明一优选实施例,结合图3,寄生参数调节单元(网络)11位于晶体管的电流输入端和高次谐波阻抗控制单元12之间,由特征阻抗为Z0的L 型微带线中的第一传输线TL1和第二传输线TL2构成。通过合理的选择第一传输线TL1的电长度为θ1和第二传输线TL2的电长度θ2的具体值,实现对谐波阻抗的寄生补偿。
对F类功率放大器,晶体管电流输入端所需的基波阻抗为Zfund,基波阻抗控制单元13输入端的基波阻抗为Zmatch,已知所需Zfund便可以求得对应的Zmatch,两者关系可以用以下公式表示:
Figure PCTCN2015095531-appb-000001
当基波阻抗控制网络的基波阻抗满足对应Zmatch就可以实现晶体管端口所需基波阻抗匹配。
作为本发明一实施例,高次谐波阻抗控制单元(网络)12可以由六段微带线结构构成。
二次到五次谐波阻抗控制单元(高次谐波阻抗控制单元)具体拓扑结构如图2所示,其中六段微带线特征阻抗为Z0,具体为:第一串联微带线、第二串联微带线、第一开路微带线、第二开路微带线、第三开路微带线和短路微带线;
第一串联微带线的一端为高次谐波阻抗控制单元12的输入端,第一串联微带线的另一端同时与第二串联微带线、第一开路微带线、第二开路微带线的一端连接,第二串联微带线的另一端为高次谐波阻抗控制单元12的输出端同时与第三开路微带线、短路微带线的一端连接,短路微带线的另一端交流接地。
作为本发明一优选实施例,第一串联微带线和第二串联微带线的电长度均为λ0/4,第一开路微带线、第二开路微带线、第三开路微带线的电长度依次为λ0/12、λ0/20、λ0/16,交流短路微带线的电长度为λ0/4。该结构中串联微带线、开路微带线和短路微带线的特征阻抗均为Z0,λ0为基波频率的波长。
对于固定工作频率,该高次谐波阻抗控制单元(网络)12可同时实现输入端口处的二次与四次谐波短路、三次与五次谐波开路。其中,λ0表示基波频率的波长,S表示谐波阻抗短路,O表示谐波阻抗开路。也就是说,1O表示基波 开路,3O表示三次谐波开路,4O表示四次谐波开路,5O表示五次谐波开路,1S基波短路,2S表示二次谐波短路,3S表示三次谐波短路,4S表示四次谐波短路,5S表示五次谐波短路。
在本发明实施例中,高次谐波阻抗控制单元12中,由于采用了六段微带线结构,可以在第一串联微带线和第二串联微带线的连接点形成2S、3S、4S和5S。因此无论后端基波阻抗控制单元结构如何变化,该点的二次到五次谐波都是短路的,通过第一串联微带线的变化后,可以实现输入端口处的二次与四次谐波短路、三次与五次谐波开路。同时,利用基波阻抗控制单元调节基波阻抗的匹配时,不会影响二次到五次谐波的匹配结果,因此它可以独立实现F类功率放大器的基波阻抗匹配。
作为本发明一实施例,基波阻抗控制单元(网络)13可以由L型微带线结构构成,包括第三微带线TL3和第四微带线TL4,其特征阻抗均为Z0
第三微带线TL3的一端为基波阻抗控制单元13的输入端,第三微带线TL3的另一端为基波阻抗控制单元13的输出端与第四微带线TL4的一端连接。
第三微带线TL3的电长度为θ1,第四微带线TL4的电长度为θ2
电长度θ1和电长度θ2利用以下公式求解得到:
Figure PCTCN2015095531-appb-000002
Figure PCTCN2015095531-appb-000003
上述公式中,n为整数,Z0为微带的特征阻抗,单位为Ω;ω0为基波角频率,单位为rad/s;Cds为寄生电容,单位为pF;Ld为寄生电感,单位为nH;Cp为封装寄生电容,单位为pF,Ropt最佳负载阻抗。
在实际设计时,第一传输线TL1的电长度为θ1和第二传输线TL2的电长度取大于零的最小值。
本发明实施例通过合理的选择电长度θ1和电长度θ2的具体值,能够实现 F类功率放大器的基波阻抗匹配,同时不影响前端二次到五次谐波阻抗的控制。
