一种信号校正方法以及信号校正系统 技术领域
本申请实施例涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种信号校正方法以及信号校正系统。
背景技术
近年来随着无线通信技术的飞速发展,无线通信系统产品越来越普及,成为当今人类信息社会发展的重要组成部分。射频接收机位于无线通信系统的最前端,其结构和性能直接影响着电子产品世界整个通信系统。优化设计结构和选择合适的制造工艺,以提高系统的性能价格比,是射频工程师追求的方向。由于零(近零)中频系统具有体积小、成本低和易于单片集成的特点,在无线通信领域中受到广泛的关注。但是零(近零)中频系统由体积小和单片集成的特点导致该零(近零)中频系统中的本振泄露和镜像泄露问题一直存在。其中本振信号和镜像信号的泄露会导致本振信号和镜像信号的残留大,进而会恶化本通信单元信号的信噪比或对其他通信单元产生影响。
为了解决这一问题,目前通常采用如图1所示的方法,该链路包括调制器、可变增益放大器(variable gain amplifier,简称:VGA)、功率放大器(power amplifier,简称:PA)以及该PA之后的包络检波管。该调制器用于对输入信号进行调制得到调制信号;该VGA与该PA用于对该调制信号进行功率增益调整然后通过该PA输出;该包络检波管采样该调制器输出后的包络信息,实现校正信息的提取,再通过正交不平衡校正(quadrature modulation compensation,简称:QMC)算法进行校正。
但是这种方法中,该VGA与该PA在对该调制器输出的调制信号进行增益调整是一个动态变化的过程,在调整过程中会出现该PA输出的调制信号的功率超出该包络检波管的工作功率,从而导致该包络检波管无法正常工作。
发明内容

本申请实施例中,该第一包络检波器可以为包络检波管也可以为频谱仪,只要可以采集包络信息即可,具体方式此处不做限定。
本申请实施例中,该信号校正系统在根据第一包络信息计算得到正交不平衡校正系数并利用该正交不平衡校正系数对该调制信号进行校正的具体过程如下:首先对包络检波器反馈所得的信号进行数字处理,调整反馈信号的延迟和幅度,和参考信号相匹配,再比较反馈信号和参考信号之间的差异,进而求解出正交不平衡校正系数,再利用正交不平衡校正系数对调制信号进行幅度、相位和直流信息进行调整,以此来实现对调制器和空间泄露幅相不平衡的校正。
本申请实施例中,该信号校正系统根据第一调制信号的功率放大结果对该第一调制信号进行动态增益补偿得到第二调制信号,从而使得该第二调制信号的功率符合该第一包络检波器的工作功率,保证该第一包络检波器可以持续正常工作,进而实现对该调制信号进行正交不平衡校正。
可选的,该信号校正系统还可以采用如下方式对该调制信号进行正交不平衡校正,具体方式如下:

本实施例中,该信号校正系统在启动该第一包络检波器的同时,还可以将当前时刻的链路增益和正交不平衡校正系数进行冻结(即当前时刻对调制信号不进行正交不平衡校正),然后该第一包络检波器采集当前时刻该调制信号的第一包络信息(可以理解的是,该第一包络信息并不是指代固定时刻的包络信息,它用于指代该第一包络检波器获取的不同包络信息)。这时该信号校正系统获取到该第二包络检波器采集当前时刻的调制信号的第二包络信息。然后该信号校正系统根据该当前时刻的第一包络信息与该当前时刻的第二包络信息计算得到当前时刻的空间泄露因子;该信号校正系统根据该当前时刻的第二包络信息计算得到当前时刻的第一校正系数。最后该信号校正系统再利用该当前时刻的空间泄露因子对该当前时刻的第一校正系数进行补偿得到当前时刻的正交不平衡校正系数。
本实施例中,在该信号校正系统启动该第一包络检波器之前,该信号校正系统还可以判断该第一调制信号的功率范围是否在预设范围内,若是,则该第一包络检波器开始运行。

为了解决这一问题,本申请实施例提供了如下技术方案:该信号校正系统将输入的信号进行调制输出调制信号;然后该信号校正系统将该调制信号进行功率放大得到第一调制信号;再然后该信号校正系统对该第一调制信号的部分信号进行功率补偿得到第二调制信号,该第二调制信号的功率满足第一包络检波器的工作功率;再然后,该信号校正系统采集用于指示该调制信号的幅相不平衡和直流不平衡以及该调制信号的镜像信号和本振信号的空间泄露信息的第一包络信息;再然后该信号校正系统根据该第一包络信息计算得到正交不平衡校正系数;最后该信号校正系统根据该正交不平衡校正系数对该调制器的调制信号进行校正。
下面对本申请实施例中的信号校正方法进行说明,具体请参考图2所示,本申请实施例中信号校正方法的一个实施例包括:
201、信号校正系统对输入信号进行调制得到调制信号。
该信号校正系统对输入的信号进行调制得到调制信号。
本实施例中,以如图3所示的信号校正系统为例,该信号校正系统包括调制器、第一VGA、PA、耦合器、第二VGA以及该第一包络检波管;
其中,该耦合器、该第二VGA与该第一包络检波管包含于DPD反馈通道中。
本实施例中,该信号校正系统通过该调制器对输入信号进行调制生成调制信号。
202、该信号校正系统对该调制信号进行功率放大得到第一调制信号。
该信号校正系统对该调制信号进行功率放大得到该第一调制信号。
在实际应用中,该信号校正系统中需要对该调制信号进行功率放大然后进行输出使用。以图3所示的信号校正系统为例,该信号校正系统可以通过该第一VGA和该PA对该调制信号进行功率放大得到该第一调制信号,其中该第一VGA可以用于确定该调制信号的放大幅度(比如将该调制信号的功率放大范围为0分贝至30分贝),然后该PA实现该调制信号的最终放大功率并输出(比如该系统中要求输出的最大功率应该是60分贝,则在该第一VGA达到30分贝的增益时,该PA还需要将该30分贝进行功率放大达到60分贝)。
本实施例中,该信号校正系统中的第一VGA与该PA实现的功能也可以由其他可以实现可变功率调整的器件实现,比如该第一VGA可以由一个变频器与固定放大器构成,只要可以实现调制信号的增益可变即可,具体器件此处不做限定。同理,该第二VGA的功能也可以由一个变频器与固定放大器实现,具体器件此处不做限定。
203、该信号校正系统该第一调制信号的第一部分调制信号进行补偿得到第二调制信号,该第二调制信号的功率满足第一包络检波器的工作功率。

本实施例中,该第一包络检波器的工作功率为预定功率范围,而该第二调制信号的功率只要在该预定功率范围之内即可。比如该包络检波器的工作范围为5分贝至10分贝,即该第二调制信号的功率只要大于或等于5分贝且小于或等于10分贝即可。
本实施例中,该第一包络检波器可以为包络检波管也可以为频谱仪,只要可以采集到包络信息即可,具体此处不做限定。

本实施例中,该信号校正系统根据第一调制信号的功率放大结果对该第一调制信号进行动态增益补偿得到第二调制信号,从而使得该第二调制信号的功率符合该第一包络检波器的工作功率,保证该第一包络检波器可以持续正常工作,进而实现对该调制信号进行正交不平衡校正。
具体请参考图4所示,本申请实施例中的信号校正方法的另一个实施例包括:
401、信号校正系统对输入信号进行调制得到调制信号。
该信号校正系统对输入的信号进行调制得到调制信号。
本实施例中,以如图5所示的信号校正系统为例,该信号校正系统包括调制器、第一VGA、PA、耦合器、第二VGA、该第一包络检波管以及该第二包络检波管;

本实施例中,该信号校正系统中的第一VGA与该PA实现的功能也可以由其他可以实现可变功率调整的器件实现,比如该第一VGA可以由一个变频器与固定放大器构成,只要可以实现调制信号的增益可变即可,具体器件此处不做限定。同理,该第二VGA的功能也可以由一个变频器与固定放大器实现,具体器件此处不做限定。

y(k)'/G=x(k)+β×x*(k)+c;
