Description

一种可切换环路增益的供电网络、信号处理系统及应用
本申请要求以2020年3月6日提交的申请号为202010149206.6，名称为“一种可切换环路增益的供电网络、信号处理系统及应用”的中国专利申请的优先权，其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及一种可切换环路增益的供电网络、信号处理系统及应用。
背景技术
放大器是能够使较小的能量来控制较大能量的任何器件，包括A类放大器、B类放大器、AB类放大器、D类放大器、T类放大器、射频功率放大器等，其中射频功率放大器(RF PA)是各种无线发射机的重要组成部分。在发射机的前级电路中，调制振荡电路所产生的射频信号功率很小，需要经过一系列的放大一缓冲级、中间放大级、末级功率放大级，获得足够的射频功率以后，才能馈送到天线上辐射出去。为了获得足够大的射频输出功率，必须采用射频功率放大器。
放大器包括一级、二级或多级三极管，通过一级、二级或多级三极管对输入的信号进行放大后输出，为了保证放大器能够处于有效的工作状态对输入的信号进行处理，需要对放大器提供偏置信号使放大器内的三极管处于工作状态。向放大器内的三极管提供偏置信号的电路称为偏置电路。
如图1所示，上面方框为偏置电路，下面方框为射频电路，射频 电路包括三极管Q1和三极管Q2。当偏置电路在向三极管Q1和三极管Q2提供偏置信号时，偏置电路与放大器内的三极管形成闭合环路，如图1中的虚线表示。待放大信号输入三极管Q1经放大后输入三极管Q2放大。但经三极管Q1、三极管Q2放大后的信号不会全部进入后级电路，如经三极管Q2放大后的信号不会全部输出，一部分信号会随着闭合环路回到三极管Q1，三极管Q1再次对返回的信号进行放大后输入三极管Q2，三极管Q2再对信号进行放大后再返回，依次循环。这种在闭合环路内形成环路的信号我们用环路增益表述。当环路增益大于1时，信号会在这个闭合环路间不停的放大形成震荡频率，最终引起电路震荡，导致放大器不稳定。
目前，为了消除环路增益对放大器稳定性的影响，在偏置电路中会接入不同的滤波电路。如图1所示，在偏置电路中接入电容C1。由于电容自身有寄生电感，另外，电容与电源和地的连线在射频也等效为电感，导致电容在工作时，电容与这两个电感会在某个频率产生谐振，形成谐振频率。电容在谐振时，阻抗为0欧，当电容C1的谐振频率和闭合环路内的震荡频率一致时，闭合环路的震荡频率会沿电容C1形成的0欧姆阻抗进入地，使其不在闭合环路内持续震荡，从而消除了闭合环路内的震荡，避免了闭合环路产生震荡，保证了放大器的稳定性。也就是说，电容C1的谐振频率，后级通过闭合环路返回的信号经电容C1接地，即信号环路被打破了，无法形成震荡，保证了放大器的稳定性。
放大器通常在一个芯片内集成了多级放大器，用于处理不同的频 段信号，以手机内的功率放大器为例，通常有低频和中频两个频段，为了节省成本，这两个频段会共用一个偏置电路提供偏置信号，为了降低闭合环路震荡频率的影响，偏置电路会采用上述方式进行处理，即在偏置电路中接入电容，通过电容消除环路增益。但是，由于低频和中频的环路增益通常情况下并不一致，因此采用如图1所示的电路结构无法保证放大器在不同的频段达到稳定。

如图3所示，当开关3的初始状态为断开时，第一滤波电路1处于工作状态时；当控制信号控制开关3闭合后，第二滤波电路2处于工作状态，与第一滤波电路1共同处于工作状态，如图2所示。

控制芯片7可以采用任何一种能够存储计算机程序，并在供电时运行存储于其内的芯片，其运行的程序实现的功能为：接受手机基带芯片发出的信号，并根据接受的信号输出控制指令控制功率放大器4、频率选择开关6和供电网络8中的开关3的工作状态。
本申请提供的信号处理系统应用于手机射频前端处理信号时，当控制芯片7接收到手机基带芯片发出的指令后，会生成相应的控制信号，控制其他芯片，如功率放大器、频率选择开关等等。此外，控制芯片7还生成一个单独的信号，控制开关3。当基带发出低频工作的信号给控制芯片7时，控制芯片7会生成信号让开关3闭合，把第二滤波电路2接入供电网络。当基带发出中频频工作的信号给控制芯片 7时，控制芯片7会生成信号，让开关3断开，不把第二滤波电路2接入供电网络。
以上控制芯片7的控制原理是基于本申请提供的信号处理系统应用于手机射频前端中时的控制原理，当用于其它信号处理时，基本原理相同，区别在于控制芯片7接收的控制信号不同。
本领域中通常1.0GHz以下是低频；频率在1.0GHz以上、2.025GHz(也就是Band34)以下是中频。
