Description

一种自适应抵消无源互调信号的方法、装置及应用设备 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,具体涉及一种自适应抵消无源互调信号的方法、装置及应用设备。
背景技术
在通信系统中,大量应用无线收发设备。无线收发设备本身包含有产生无源互调信号的器件,比如射频双工器、滤波器、合路器等;从无线收发设备天线口到天线的链路上也包含很多产生无源互调信号的器件,比如耦合器、射频电缆、塔顶放大器等。对于无线收发系统而言,如何抑制由无线收发系统中发射信号引起的对无线收发设备的接收机产生的互调干扰,一直是该类系统的关键问题。因此,要求无线收发设备在工作时,发射通道产生的无源互调信号电平尽可能低,以免无源互调信号落入接收通道,对接收通道造成互调干扰。当前无源互调抵消技术一般有两种方式:
对比文献CN100490307C公开了一种名称为:“信号处理电路、基站和消除互调产物的方法”发明专利,该专利将输入非线性单元的原载波分为两路,分别输入两只支路,第一路原载波经过非线性单元产生包含有第一组互调产物的处理信号,第二路原载波经过分路器、倍频器、混合器以及调节电路。产生含有第二组高次互调产物的控制信号,最后将两路信号叠加。它利用第二组高次互调与第一组互调产物的频率相同,幅度接近相同,相位相反,抵消互调信号。
该技术方案在以下不足:1、该技术方案不适用无源器件,它没有考虑非线性单元内部不同位置的互调值差异,对于无源器件这种差异是很明显的,在无源电路中,传输信号的幅度衰减和相位变化程度非常大。在多个位置产生互调的情况下,电路前端产生的互调信号会在信号传输过程中大幅度衰减,电路输出的互调信号只含有电路末端产生的互调信号,因此,对于双工器来说,若从非线性单元的前端取信号,所产生的互调抵消信号无法与天线端口的互调信号相抵消;2、该技术方案产生的互调抵消信号即第二组高次互调产物,被限定为固定阶次得互调产物,只能消除对应频段内的非线性单元的互调信号,存在局限性。
对比文献201310048951.1公开了一种名称为:“一种用于无源器件的互调抵消装置”发明专利,该专利从无源器件输出端直接耦合包含有高次互调产物的发射信号,通过无源调节器的调整传输至带有互调信号发生器的射频链路末端反射后,再次通过无源调节器的调整,获得与前述无源器件发射信号的互调信号相同频率、电平和相反相位的抵消信号,该信号通过耦合器与无源非线性单元输出端发射信号叠加,实现互调抵消。
该技术方案在以下不足:1、该技术方案采用无源调节器,幅度调节、相位调节均是无源器件,如果要实现幅度调节、相位调节需要借助外力驱动无源调节器,比如使用电机驱动,或者直接靠人工驱动,这些方式会使得实际应用成本高,且不便于产品化;2、由于没有无源互调抵消结果的反馈检测电路,抵消结果不能实时监控和调整。
除此之外,现有其它的降低无源互调信号电平的方法主要集中在无源器件的结构和生产工艺上,这些方法往往需要增加额外的成本,而且加厚金属镀层的电镀工艺往往会增加 污染。
