图5是本发明射频拉远电路另一实施方式的结构示意图。
【具体实施方式】
参阅图1,图1是本发明通信故障检测方法一实施方式的流程示意图。如图1所示,本实施方式的通信故障检测方法包括如下步骤:
101:通过射频拉远单元的第一天线对来自所述射频拉远单元的第一发射通道的测试信号进行发射。
射频拉远单元,即RRU,是将基带单元和射频单元分开的通信电路。通常情况下,是在远端将基带光信号转换成射频信号放大传送出去。
本实施方式中,为了实现对通信系统故障的检测,首先射频拉远单元的第一发射通道将基带信号类型的测试信号传输至该射频拉远单元第一天线,对应地,通过该射频拉远单元的第一天线对该测试信号进行发射。
其中,该测试信号可以为任何类型的通信信号,在此不做限定。
具体地,射频拉远单元的第一发射通道将第一频率的基带信号类型的测试信号经过放大器放大后,再经过环形器以及双工器到达第一天线,该第一天线将测试信号转换为射频信号后进行发射。
102:利用所述射频拉远单元的第二天线接收所述测试信号,并将接收到的测试信号返回至所述射频拉远单元的第二发射通道。
为了对发射的测试信号进行检测,通过该射频拉远单元的第二天线接收该测试信号。其中,该第二天线与第一天线的隔离度为预定值。如35dB±5dB等,只要保证测试信号能够正常发送接收即可,在此不做限定。
在通过第二天线接收到该测试信号后,通过射频拉远单元与第二天线连接的双工器将该测试信号返回至第二发射通道,通过复用双工器的方式可以避免增加其他元器件而带来的成本增加以及系统结构的复杂化。
103:将所述第二发射通道接收到的测试信号发送至与所述射频拉远单元的第二接收通道或/和与所述第二发射通道连接的反馈通道中。
由于接收到的信号为第一天线经过处理后的射频信号为了判断测试信号是否正常,需要对该测试信号进行解调以及进一步的处理,本实施方式中,采用的是复用与第二发射通道连接的第二接收通道或/和反馈通道的方式,因此,在第二发射通道接收到该测试信号后,进一步地将该测试信号发送至与所述射频拉远单元的第二接收通道或/和与所述第二发射通道连接的反馈通道中。
104:对所述第二接收通道或/和反馈通道接收到的测试信号进行处理,并判断所述接收到的测试信号是否存在异常,以确定通信系统是否存在故障。
在一个具体的实施方式中,将该测试信号返回至该射频拉远单元的与第二天线连接的反馈通道中,通过该反馈通道的基带信号处理单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过射频链路对解调后的基带信号进行进一步处理,如滤波等。
在另一个具体的实施方式中,将该测试信号首先返回至该射频拉远单元的与第二天线连接反馈通道中,先利用反馈通道的基带处理信号单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过环形器以及与该反馈通道连接的射频开关选择第二接收通道,将该处理后的基带信号引入到第二接收通道,并通过该第二接收通道对解调后的测试信号进行进一步处理。其中,该射频开关为单刀双置开关。
在经过上述任一实施方式的处理后,进一步地通过该第二接收通道或/和反馈通道对测试信号进行异常判断,以进一步确定该通信系统是否存在异常。
其中,在一个具体的实施方中,通过第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号与第一天线发射的来自第一发射通道的原始测试信号进行比对,根据比对结果确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。例如,判断该解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号是否相同或者误差是否在有效范围内,如果相同或误差在有效范围内,则该解调后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统为正常工作状态。如果解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号不同或误差超出有效范围,则确定该解调后的测试信号异常,进一步确定该通信系统存在异常。
在另一个具体的实施方式中,也可以通过对第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号的功率进行有效范围的判断进而确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。
例如,通过反馈通道判断处理后的测试信号是否存在异常时,假设射频拉远单元通过第一天线发出的原始测试信号的发射功率为30dB,第一天线和第二天线的隔离度为35dB±5dB,那么第二天线接收到的测试信号的功率为30dB-(35dB±5dB),在经过反馈通道处理时,反馈通道的增益为-10dB,射频链路增益为±3.5dB,那么最后得到的处理后的测试信号的功率应该为30dB-(35dB±5dB)-(-10dB)-(±3.5dB)=-15dBm±8.5dB。如果最终得到处理后的测试信号的功率为-15dBm±8.5dB,那么该处理后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统正常工作,如果该处理后的测试信号的功率不等于上述数值,则表示该处理后的测试信号为异常信号,即确定此时通信系统存在异常。
例如,通过第二接收通道判断处理后的测试信号是否存在异常时,假设射频拉远单元通过第一天线发出的原始测试信号的发射功率为30dB,第一天线和第二天线的隔离度为35dB±5dB,那么第二天线接收到的测试信号的功率为30dB-(35dB±5dB),在经过第二接收通道处理时,第二接收通道的增益为10dB,射频链路增益为±3.5dB,那么最后得到的处理后的测试信号的功率应该为30dB-(35dB±5dB)-(10dB)-(±3.5dB)=5dBm±8.5dB。如果最终得到处理后的测试信号的功率为5dBm±8.5dB,那么该处理后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统正常工作,如果该处理后的测试信号的功率不等于上述数值,则表示该处理后的测试信号为异常信号,即确定此时通信系统存在异常。
区别于现有技术,本实施方式通过射频拉远单元的第一天线对来自第一发射通道的测试信号进行发射,利用射频拉远单元的第二天线接收所述测试信号,并将接收到的测试信号返回至第二发射通道,再将第二发射通道接收到的测试信号发送至与第二接收通道或/和与所述第二发射通道连接的反馈通道中,最后对所第二接收通道或/和反馈通道接收到的测试信号进行处理,并判断所述接收到的测试信号是否存在异常,以确定通信系统是否存在故障。通过上述自发自收以及逆向复用发射链路的检测方式,能够在不改变通信系统现有工作模式链路设计的前提下,完成对通信系统包括上下行信号质量、上下行接收机性能以及天线隔离度等整个发射、接收链路的自检,不仅能够有效降低通信系统外场故障排查的成本,而且通过自发自检的方式能够有效提高故障排查的效率,进而进一步提高通信系统的可维护性和可靠性。

射频拉远单元,即RRU,是将基带单元和射频单元分开的通信电路。通常情况下,是在远端将基带光信号转换成射频信号放大传送出去。
本实施方式中,为了实现对通信系统故障的检测,首先处理器301通过射频拉远单元的第一发射通道将基带信号类型的测试信号传输至该射频拉远单元第一天线,对应地,通过该射频拉远单元的第一天线对该测试信号进行发射。其中,该测试信号可以为任何类型的通信信号,在此不做限定。
具体地,处理器301的第一发射通道将第一频率的基带信号类型的测试信号经过放大器放大后,再经过环形器以及双工器到达第一天线,该第一天线将测试信号转换为射频信号后进行发射。
处理器301还用于利用所述射频拉远单元的第二天线接收所述测试信号,并将接收到的测试信号通过第二发射通道的双工器返回至第二发射通道。
其中,该第二天线与第一天线的隔离度为预定值。如35dB±5dB等,只要保证测试信号能够正常发送接收即可,在此不做限定。
具体的,处理器301在通过第二天线接收到该测试信号后,通过射频拉远单元与第二天线连接的双工器将该测试信号返回至第二发射通道,通过复用双工器的方式可以避免增加其他元器件而带来的成本增加以及系统结构的复杂化。
处理器301还用于将所述第二发射通道接收到的测试信号发送至与所述射频拉远单元的第二接收通道或/和与所述第二发射通道连接的反馈通道中。
由于接收到的信号为第一天线经过处理后的射频信号为了判断测试信号是否正常,需要对该测试信号进行解调以及进一步的处理,本实施方式中,采用的是复用与第二发射通道连接的第二接收通道或/和反馈通道的方式,因此,处理器301在第二发射通道接收到该测试信号后,进一步地将该测试信号发送至与所述射频拉远单元的第二接收通道或/和与所述第二发射通道连接的反馈通道中。
处理器301对所述第二接收通道或/和反馈通道接收到的测试信号进行处理,并判断所述接收到的测试信号是否存在异常,以确定通信系统是否存在故障。
在一个具体的实施方式中,处理器301将该测试信号返回至该射频拉远单元的与第二天线连接的反馈通道中,通过该反馈通道的基带信号处理单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过射频链路对解调后的基带信号进行进一步处理,如滤波等。
在另一个具体的实施方式中,处理器301将该测试信号首先返回至该射频拉远单元的与第二天线连接反馈通道中,先利用反馈通道的基带处理信号单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过环形器以及与该反馈通道连接的射频开关选择第二接收通道,将该处理后的基带信号引入到第二接收通道,并通过该第二接收通道对解调后的测试信号进行进一步处理。其中,该射频开关为单刀双置开关。
在经过上述任一实施方式的处理后,处理器301进一步地通过该第二接收通道或/和反馈通道对测试信号进行异常判断,以进一步确定该通信系统是否存在异常。
其中,在一个具体的实施方中,处理器301通过第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号与第一天线发射的来自第一发射通道的原始测试信号进行比对,根据比对结果确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。例如,判断该解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号是否相同或者误差是否在有效范围内,如果相同或误差在有效范围内,则该解调后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统为正常工作状态。如果解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号不同或误差超出有效范围,则确定该解调后的测试信号异常,进一步确定该通信系统存在异常。
在另一个具体的实施方式中,处理器301也可以通过对第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号的功率进行有效范围的判断进而确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。

参阅图4,图4是本发明射频拉远单元一实施方式的结构示意图。
射频拉远电路是将基带单元和射频单元分开的通信电路。通常情况下,是在远端将基带光信号转换成射频信号放大传送出去。
如图4所述,本实施方式的射频拉远电路包括第一天线401、与第一天线连接的第一发射通道402及第一接收通道403、连接第一发射通道402的第一反馈通道404、第二天线405、与第二天线连接的第二发射通道406及第二接收通道407、连接第二发射通道406的反馈通道408,还包括射频链路(图中未示出)以及基带信号处理单元(图中未示出)。
其中,第一发射通道402将测试信号输出至所述第一天线401,并通过第一天线401发射所述测试信号。第二发射通道406通过所述第二天线401接收所述测试信号,并输出至所述第二接收通道407或/和反馈通道408;第二接收通道407或/和反馈通道408将测试信号输出至射频链路以及基带信号处理单元,射频链路以及基带信号处理单元对所述测试信号进行处理,并判断所述测试信号是否存在异常,以确定通信系统是否存在故障。
具体地,本实施方式中,为了实现对通信系统故障的检测,首先射频拉远电路的第一发射通道402将基带信号类型的测试信号传输至第一天线401,对应地,第一天线401对该测试信号进行发射。
其中,该测试信号可以为任何类型的通信信号,在此不做限定。
具体地,第一发射通道402将第一频率的基带信号类型的测试信号经过第一放大器409放大后,再经过第一环形器410以及第一双工器411到达第一天线401,该第一天线401将测试信号转换为射频信号后进行发射。
第二天线405接收测试信号,并将接收到的测试信号返回至第二发射通道406。其中,该第二天线与第一天线的隔离度为预定值。如35dB±5dB等,只要保证测试信号能够正常发送接收即可,在此不做限定。
具体地,第二天线405接收到该测试信号后,通过射频拉远单元与第二天线405连接的第二双工器412将该测试信号返回至第二发射通道,通过复用第二双工器412的方式可以避免增加其他元器件而带来的成本增加以及系统结构的复杂化。
第二发射通道406接收到该测试信号后,进一步地将该测试信号发送至第二接收通道407或/和与第二发射通道406连接的反馈通道408中。
第二接收通道407或/和反馈通道408接收到的测试信号进行处理,并通过射频链路以及基带信号处理单元并判断所述接收到的测试信号是否存在异常,以确定通信系统是否存在故障。
在一个具体的实施方式中,第二发射通道406将该测试信号返回至与第二发射通道406连接的反馈通道408中,通过该反馈通道408的基带信号处理单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过射频链路对解调后的基带信号进行进一步处理,如滤波等。
在另一个具体的实施方式中,如图5所示,第二发射通道506将该测试信号首先返回至与第二发射通道506连接反馈通道508中,先利用反馈通道508的基带处理信号单元将测试信号进行解调得到基带信号,然后通过第二环形器513以及与该反馈通道连接的射频开关414选择第二接收通道507,将该处理后的基带信号引入到第二接收通道507中,并通过该第二接收通道507对解调后的测试信号进行进一步处理。其中,该射频开关514为单刀双置开关。
在经过上述任一实施方式的处理后,第二接收通道或/和反馈通道对测试信号进行异常判断,以进一步确定该通信系统是否存在异常。
其中,在上述任一个具体的实施方中,第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号与第一天线发射的来自第一发射通道的原始测试信号进行比对,根据比对结果确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。例如,判断该解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号是否相同或者误差是否在有效范围内,如果相同或误差在有效范围内,则该解调后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统为正常工作状态。如果解调后的测试信号与原始发射的测试信号不同或误差超出有效范围,则确定该解调后的测试信号异常,进一步确定该通信系统存在异常。
在上述任一具体的实施方式中,也可以通过对第二接收通道或/和反馈通道将处理后的测试信号的功率进行有效范围的判断进而确定该处理后的测试信号是否存在异常。
例如,反馈通道判断处理后的测试信号是否存在异常时,假设第一天线发出的原始测试信号的发射功率为30dB,第一天线和第二天线的隔离度为35dB±5dB,那么第二天线接收到的测试信号的功率为30dB-(35dB±5dB),在经过反馈通道处理时,反馈通道的增益为-10dB,射频链路增益为±3.5dB,那么最后得到的处理后的测试信号的功率应该为30dB-(35dB±5dB)-(-10dB)-(±3.5dB)=-15dBm±8.5dB。如果最终得到处理后的测试信号的功率为-15dBm±8.5dB,那么该处理后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统正常工作,如果该处理后的测试信号的功率不等于上述数值,则表示该处理后的测试信号为异常信号,即确定此时通信系统存在异常。
例如,第二接收通道判断处理后的测试信号是否存在异常时,假设第一天线发出的原始测试信号的发射功率为30dB,第一天线和第二天线的隔离度为35dB±5dB,那么第二天线接收到的测试信号的功率为30dB-(35dB±5dB),在经过第二接收通道处理时,第二接收通道的增益为10dB,射频链路增益为±3.5dB,那么最后得到的处理后的测试信号的功率应该为30dB-(35dB±5dB)-(10dB)-(±3.5dB)=5dBm±8.5dB。如果最终得到处理后的测试信号的功率为5dBm±8.5dB,那么该处理后的测试信号为正常信号,即该通信系统正常工作,如果该处理后的测试信号的功率不等于上述数值,则表示该处理后的测试信号为异常信号,即确定此时通信系统存在异常。
