Description

一种介质谐振器、滤波器、多工器及基站A dielectric resonator, filter, multiplexer and base station 技术领域technical field
本申请涉及通信设备领域,尤其涉及一种介质谐振器、滤波器、多工器及基站。The present application relates to the field of communication equipment, in particular to a dielectric resonator, a filter, a multiplexer and a base station.
背景技术Background technique
介质谐振器用于形成介质滤波器,其所使用的材料为介质材料,介质材料的内部损耗及表面损耗是影响插入损耗的主要因素。The dielectric resonator is used to form a dielectric filter, and the material used is a dielectric material. The internal loss and surface loss of the dielectric material are the main factors affecting the insertion loss.
现有的介质谐振器普遍是采用单一材料制备,使得滤波器的插入损耗取决于该单一材料的性能参数。但是,单一材料的性能参数的改善空间是有限的,这就导致对于插入损耗的降低效果不明显。Existing dielectric resonators are generally made of a single material, so that the insertion loss of the filter depends on the performance parameters of the single material. However, the room for improvement of the performance parameters of a single material is limited, which leads to an insignificant effect on the reduction of insertion loss.
发明内容Contents of the invention
本申请实施例提供了一种介质谐振器、滤波器、多工器及基站,能够降低插入损耗。Embodiments of the present application provide a dielectric resonator, a filter, a multiplexer, and a base station, which can reduce insertion loss.
本申请实施例第一方面提供了一种介质谐振器,包括外包体和至少一个内芯体,其中,内芯体呈柱状,包括轴向上相对设置的两个端壁以及连接这两个端壁的外周壁,外包体包覆于内芯体的外周壁,该外周壁可以包括一个面,也可以包括多个面,这具体与内芯体的结构形状有关;内芯体的介电常数大于外包体的介电常数。The first aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides a dielectric resonator, which includes an outer casing and at least one inner core, wherein the inner core is columnar, includes two end walls opposite to each other in the axial direction, and connects the two ends. The outer peripheral wall of the wall, the outer cladding is wrapped on the outer peripheral wall of the inner core, and the outer peripheral wall can include one surface or multiple surfaces, which is specifically related to the structural shape of the inner core; the dielectric constant of the inner core Greater than the dielectric constant of the outer inclusion.
如此设置,内芯体与外包体之间可以形成一层因介电常数发生变化而存在的界面,该界面的内侧为介电常数相对较大的内芯体、外侧为介电常数相对较小的外包体,使得该界面可以成为强反射界面,能够将进入内芯体的磁场束缚于其中,进而可以大幅降低整个介质谐振器的表面损耗,从而达到提升品质因数Q值和降低插入损耗的技术目的。In this way, a layer of interface due to the change of dielectric constant can be formed between the inner core body and the outer shell body. The outer cladding makes the interface a strong reflection interface, which can trap the magnetic field entering the inner core, thereby greatly reducing the surface loss of the entire dielectric resonator, thereby achieving a technology that improves the Q value of the quality factor and reduces the insertion loss. Purpose.
基于第一方面,本申请实施例还提供了第一方面的第一种实施方式:在内芯体的轴向上,外包体的两个端壁可以一一对应地与内芯体的轴向两端壁相平齐。Based on the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application also provides the first implementation mode of the first aspect: in the axial direction of the inner core body, the two end walls of the outer casing can be in one-to-one correspondence with the axial direction of the inner core body The walls at both ends are even.
如前所述,提升Q值的关键在于强反射界面的形成,这样,将内芯体轴向上的两个端壁和外包体轴向上的两个端壁控制为相平齐,可以最大化强反射界面的尺寸,并可有效避免材料的浪费。As mentioned above, the key to improving the Q value lies in the formation of a strong reflection interface. In this way, the two axial end walls of the inner core and the two axial end walls of the outer shell are controlled to be flush, which can maximize The size of the strongly reflective interface can be minimized, and the waste of materials can be effectively avoided.
具体实践中,内芯体和外包体在装配完成后,可以通过打磨等工艺来保证二者轴向端壁的平齐。这种平齐要求的是一种基本平齐,而并非绝对平齐,其可以存在一定的公差,该公差范围可以根据具体的使用环境等进行确定,一般而言,该公差可以控制在±(0.01-0.02)mm之间。In practice, after the assembly of the inner core body and the outer shell body is completed, processes such as grinding can be performed to ensure that the axial end walls of the two are flush. This kind of flushness requires a basic flushness, not absolute flushness. There may be a certain tolerance, and the tolerance range can be determined according to the specific use environment. Generally speaking, the tolerance can be controlled within ±( 0.01-0.02)mm between.
基于第一方面,或第一方面的第一种实施方式,本申请实施例还提供了第一方面的第二种实施方式:外包体可以不是一种材料,此时,外包体可以包括若干分层,这里的“若干”是指数量不确定的多个,通常为两个以上;且各分层可以沿远离内芯体 的方向依次布置,各分层的介电常数可以不同,离内芯体越远,相应分层的介电常数就越小。Based on the first aspect, or the first implementation of the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application also provides the second implementation of the first aspect: the outer enclosure may not be a kind of material, at this time, the outer enclosure may include several parts The "several" here refers to a number of indefinite number, usually more than two; and each layer can be arranged in sequence along the direction away from the inner core, and the dielectric constant of each layer can be different. The farther away the bulk is, the lower the dielectric constant of the corresponding layer is.

具体实施方式detailed description
为了使本领域的技术人员更好地理解本申请的技术方案,下面结合附图和具体实施例对本申请作进一步的详细说明。In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
请参考图1,图1为本实用新型实施例所提供介质谐振器的第一种具体实施方式的结构简图。Please refer to FIG. 1 . FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a first specific implementation manner of a dielectric resonator provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
如图1所示,本申请实施例提供了一种介质谐振器,包括外包体1和至少一个内芯体2;其中,内芯体2呈柱状,这里的柱状可以是指圆柱状,也可以是指其他的异形柱状,如过轴向的截面为“凸”字型的柱状、垂直于轴向的截面为非圆形的柱状等,该非圆形可以为三角形、四边形、五边形或者其他的异形等,具体实践中,本领域技术人员可以根据实际需要进行设置,只要能够满足使用要求即可。柱状的内芯体2可以包括轴向上相对设置的两个端壁以及连接这两个端壁的外周壁,外包体1可以包覆于内芯体2的外周壁,该外周壁可以包括一个面,也可以包括多个面,这具体与内芯体2的结构形状有关。内芯体2的介电常数大于外包体1的介电常数。As shown in Figure 1, the embodiment of the present application provides a dielectric resonator, including an outer casing 1 and at least one inner core 2; wherein, the inner core 2 is columnar, and the columnar here may refer to a column, or Refers to other special-shaped columns, such as a column with a "convex" cross-section through the axial direction, a non-circular column with a cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction, etc. The non-circular shape can be triangular, quadrangular, pentagonal or Other special shapes, etc., in specific practice, those skilled in the art can set according to actual needs, as long as they can meet the use requirements. The columnar inner core 2 may include two end walls opposite to each other in the axial direction and an outer peripheral wall connecting the two end walls. The outer enclosure 1 may cover the outer peripheral wall of the inner core 2, and the outer peripheral wall may include a The surface may also include a plurality of surfaces, which is specifically related to the structural shape of the inner core body 2 . The dielectric constant of the inner core body 2 is greater than that of the outer casing 1 .
如此设置,内芯体2与外包体1之间可以形成一层因介电常数发生变化而存在的界面,该界面的径向内侧为介电常数相对较大的内芯体2、径向外侧为介电常数相对较小的外包体1,使得该界面可以成为强反射界面,能够将进入内芯体2的磁场束缚在内芯体2内部,进而可以大幅降低整个介质谐振器的表面损耗,从而达到提升品质因数Q值和降低插入损耗的技术目的。In this way, a layer of interface exists between the inner core body 2 and the outer casing body 1 due to the change of the dielectric constant. The radial inner side of the interface is the inner core body 2 with a relatively large dielectric constant, and the radial outer It is an outer shell 1 with a relatively small dielectric constant, so that the interface can become a strong reflection interface, which can confine the magnetic field entering the inner core 2 inside the inner core 2, thereby greatly reducing the surface loss of the entire dielectric resonator, Therefore, the technical purpose of improving the Q value of the quality factor and reducing the insertion loss is achieved.
另外,由于本申请实施例所涉及介质谐振器对于能量的束缚能力较强,相应地,其磁场强度也可以较高,在内芯体2的轴向上,整个介质谐振器的尺寸就可以做的较小。经验证,相比于常规的单一材料的介质谐振器,在同等磁场强度的条件下,本申请所涉及介质谐振器的轴向尺寸可以缩减约10%,这不仅可以大幅缩减体积,还可以较大幅度地减轻重量。In addition, since the dielectric resonator involved in the embodiment of the present application has a strong ability to bind energy, correspondingly, its magnetic field strength can also be relatively high. In the axial direction of the inner core body 2, the size of the entire dielectric resonator can be made smaller. It has been verified that, compared with a conventional dielectric resonator made of a single material, under the same magnetic field strength, the axial dimension of the dielectric resonator involved in this application can be reduced by about 10%, which not only can greatly reduce the volume, but also can be compared Significantly reduce weight.
而且,介质谐振器的尺寸小,本身的损耗也会降低,这对于提升品质因数Q值和降低插入损耗的技术目的也具有积极意义。Moreover, the size of the dielectric resonator is small, and its own loss will also be reduced, which is also of positive significance for the technical purpose of improving the quality factor Q value and reducing insertion loss.
需要说明的是,本申请实施例并不限定内芯体2和外包体1的介电常数的具体值以及二者之间的比例关系等,在具体实施时,本领域技术人员可以根据实际需要进行设置。It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific value of the dielectric constant of the inner core body 2 and the outer casing 1 and the proportional relationship between the two. to set.
内芯体2的轴向一个端壁设有槽型的调谐部21。该调谐部21为设置于内芯体2的谐振腔,通过调节该谐振腔的形状和尺寸(如深度、直径等),可以对谐振频率进行调节。需要指出的是,谐振腔的形状、尺寸变化对于谐振频率的影响在此并不做详细说明,具体可以参照现有技术。One axial end wall of the inner core body 2 is provided with a slot-shaped tuning portion 21 . The tuning part 21 is a resonant cavity disposed in the inner core 2, and the resonant frequency can be adjusted by adjusting the shape and size (such as depth, diameter, etc.) of the resonant cavity. It should be pointed out that the influence of the shape and size of the resonant cavity on the resonant frequency will not be described in detail here, and the prior art can be referred to for details.
同时,该调谐部21还可在一定程度上减轻介质谐振器的体积和重量,如前所述,这对于提升品质因数Q值和降低插入损耗的技术目的也具有积极作用。需要理解,调谐部21的设置与介质谐振器的加工精度也存在关联,如果介质谐振器的加工精度足够高,该调谐部21实际上也可以不设置。At the same time, the tuning part 21 can also reduce the volume and weight of the dielectric resonator to a certain extent. As mentioned above, this also has a positive effect on the technical purpose of improving the quality factor Q value and reducing insertion loss. It should be understood that the arrangement of the tuning part 21 is also related to the processing accuracy of the dielectric resonator, and if the processing accuracy of the dielectric resonator is high enough, the tuning part 21 may not be provided actually.
在内芯体2的轴向上,外包体1的两个端壁和该内芯体2的两个端壁之间的关系本申请实施例并不做限定,位于轴向同一侧的外包体1的端壁和内芯体2的端壁可以相平齐,也可以不相平齐,这在具体实践中均是可以采用的选择。In the axial direction of the inner core 2, the relationship between the two end walls of the outer enclosure 1 and the two end walls of the inner core 2 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, and the outer enclosure located on the same axial side The end wall of 1 and the end wall of the inner core body 2 may or may not be flush, which is an option that can be adopted in practice.
作为优选地,外包体1在内芯体2轴向上的两个端壁可以一一对应地与内芯体2的轴向两端壁相平齐。这样,可以最大化外包体1和内芯体2之间的强反射界面的尺寸,并可有效避免材料的浪费。Preferably, the two end walls of the outer casing 1 in the axial direction of the inner core body 2 may be flush with the axial end walls of the inner core body 2 in one-to-one correspondence. In this way, the size of the strongly reflective interface between the outer casing 1 and the inner core 2 can be maximized, and material waste can be effectively avoided.
控制端壁相平齐的方式可以与本申请实施例所涉及的介质谐振器的形成方式有关,如果内芯体2和外包体1之间采用粘结、过盈等方式固连在一起,则可以通过控制内芯体2和外包体1的加工精度和安装精度来实现端壁平齐的装配。The method of controlling the levelness of the end walls may be related to the formation method of the dielectric resonator involved in the embodiment of the present application. If the inner core body 2 and the outer casing body 1 are fixed together by bonding, interference, etc., then The flush assembly of the end walls can be realized by controlling the machining accuracy and installation accuracy of the inner core body 2 and the outer casing body 1 .
或者,在内芯体2和外包体1装配完成后,可以通过打磨等后处理工艺来保证二者轴向端壁的平齐。这种后处理工艺则不受限于介质谐振器的形成方式,也就是说,任何形成方式下均可以采用。Alternatively, after the assembly of the inner core body 2 and the outer casing body 1 is completed, post-treatment processes such as grinding can be used to ensure that the axial end walls of the two are flush. This post-processing process is not limited to the forming method of the dielectric resonator, that is, any forming method can be adopted.
需要说明的是,本申请实施例所提及的平齐要求的是一种基本平齐,而并非绝对平齐,其可以存在一定的公差,该公差范围可以根据具体的使用环境等进行确定;一般而言,该公差可以控制在±(0.01-0.02)mm之间,即可以较好地适应于各种使用环境中,当然,该公差也可以控制为其他值,如±(0-0.03)mm、±(0-0.04)mm等,这些在具体实践中均可能存在,换而言之,该公差范围实际上并不能够作为对本申请实施例所提供介质谐振器的实施范围的限定。It should be noted that the leveling mentioned in the embodiment of the present application requires a basic leveling, not an absolute leveling, which may have a certain tolerance, and the tolerance range can be determined according to the specific use environment, etc.; Generally speaking, the tolerance can be controlled within ±(0.01-0.02) mm, which can be better adapted to various use environments. Of course, the tolerance can also be controlled to other values, such as ±(0-0.03) mm, ±(0-0.04)mm, etc., may exist in practice. In other words, this tolerance range cannot actually be used as a limit to the implementation range of the dielectric resonator provided in the embodiment of the present application.
外包体1可以由单一材料构成,也可以由多种材料构成。当采用多种材料时,外包体1可以包括若干分层,这里的“若干”是指数量不确定的多个,通常可以为两个以上;且各分层可以沿径向(与内芯体2的轴向相垂直的方向,该径向的使用并不表示内芯体2一定为圆柱形)依次布置,各分层的介电常数可以不同,沿远离(径向上远离)内芯体2的方向,各分层的介电常数可以逐步减小。The outer casing 1 may be composed of a single material, or may be composed of multiple materials. When multiple materials are used, the outer casing 1 can include several layers, and "several" here refers to a plurality of indeterminate quantities, usually more than two; 2 in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction, the use of this radial direction does not mean that the inner core body 2 must be cylindrical), and the dielectric constant of each layer can be different, and the inner core body 2 direction, the dielectric constant of each layer can be gradually reduced.
采用这种方案,不仅内芯体2和外包体1之间可以形成强反射界面,相邻的两分层之间也可以形成强反射界面,每一强反射界面均可以对磁场进行束缚、以减少能量逃逸,从而可以更大程度地降低介质谐振器的表面损耗,以进一步地提升Q值、并降低插入损耗。With this scheme, not only a strong reflection interface can be formed between the inner core body 2 and the outer casing 1, but also a strong reflection interface can be formed between two adjacent layers, and each strong reflection interface can bind the magnetic field, thereby Reduce energy escape, so that the surface loss of the dielectric resonator can be reduced to a greater extent, so as to further improve the Q value and reduce the insertion loss.
当然,即便外包体1存在多层,也可以仅对与内芯体2相邻的分层的介电常数进行控制,而其他各分层的介电常数可以不做限定,即只要保证内芯体2和外包体1之间的强反射界面的形成便可以满足使用的要求。这样,本申请所涉及介质谐振器的加工工艺可以变得简单。Of course, even if there are multiple layers in the outer casing 1, only the dielectric constant of the layers adjacent to the inner core body 2 can be controlled, while the dielectric constants of other layers can not be limited, that is, as long as the inner core is guaranteed The formation of a strongly reflective interface between the body 2 and the outer casing 1 can meet the requirements of use. In this way, the processing technology of the dielectric resonator involved in the present application can be simplified.
另外,上述的外包体1为多层的方案,各层是沿着径向依次布置,实际上,也可以是在周向上分层,或者在轴向上分层,这两种方案也是可以选择的方案。In addition, the above-mentioned outsourcing body 1 is a multi-layer solution, and each layer is arranged in sequence along the radial direction. In fact, it can also be layered in the circumferential direction, or layered in the axial direction. These two solutions are also optional. scheme.
用于形成内芯体2和外包体1的材料可以有多种,如陶瓷、玻璃、塑料、石料、水晶、宝石、玛瑙等,这些在具体实践中均是可以采用的选择。而具体到本申请实施例中,优选采用陶瓷,相比于其他材料,陶瓷的性能稳定,获取相对容易;且更为关键的是,陶瓷的介电常数可以做的较高,完全能够满足本申请实施例所提供介质谐振器的使用要求。There are many kinds of materials used to form the inner core 2 and the outer cladding 1, such as ceramics, glass, plastic, stone, crystal, gemstone, agate, etc., all of which can be used in practice. Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, ceramics are preferred. Compared with other materials, ceramics have stable performance and are relatively easy to obtain; more importantly, the dielectric constant of ceramics can be made relatively high, which can fully meet the requirements The usage requirements of the dielectric resonator provided in the embodiment of the application.
在内芯体2和外包体1的材料均为陶瓷时,本申请所涉及介质谐振器可以采用共烧工艺形成,这种工艺条件下,外包体1可以自然形成多层结构。When the materials of the inner core body 2 and the outer body 1 are both ceramics, the dielectric resonator involved in this application can be formed by a co-firing process. Under such process conditions, the outer body 1 can naturally form a multi-layer structure.
请参考图2,图2为本实用新型实施例所提供介质谐振器的第二种具体实施方式的结构简图。Please refer to FIG. 2 . FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a second specific implementation manner of a dielectric resonator provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
详细而言,如图2所示,本申请实施例所涉及介质谐振器可以包括第一材料部和第二材料部,第一材料部的介电常数可以大于第二材料部,第二材料部可以设有通孔,在制备时,第一材料部可以采用共烧工艺形成在通孔内。相比于过盈装配、粘结固定等装配工艺,采用共烧工艺可以更好地保证第一材料部和第二材料部的接合性,既可以避免空气层的形成,又可以较好地避免内部应力的产生,能够保证介质谐振器在长期使用过程中的稳定性和使用寿命。共烧工艺的具体步骤和实施条件等在此不做详细说明和限定。In detail, as shown in Figure 2, the dielectric resonator involved in the embodiment of the present application may include a first material part and a second material part, the dielectric constant of the first material part may be greater than that of the second material part, and the second material part may A through hole may be provided, and the first material portion may be formed in the through hole by a co-firing process during manufacture. Compared with assembly processes such as interference assembly and bonding and fixing, the use of co-firing process can better ensure the jointability of the first material part and the second material part, which can avoid the formation of air layer and better avoid The generation of internal stress can ensure the stability and service life of the dielectric resonator during long-term use. The specific steps and implementation conditions of the co-firing process are not described in detail or limited here.
在进行共烧时,第一材料部和第二材料部具有相邻接的部分,为便于区分描述,可以将第一材料部与第二材料部相邻接的部分称之为第一邻接部分、第二材料部与第一材料部相邻接的部分称之为第二邻接部分,第一邻接部分和第二邻接部分可以共烧形成过渡部11,该过渡部11的材质不同于第一材料部和第二材料部,前述的内芯体2实际上是指第一材料部中除第一邻接部分外的其余部分,前述的外包体1则是指第二材料部中除第二邻接部分外的其余部分和过渡部11的组合,第二材料部中除第二邻接部分外的其余部分和过渡部11即形成了两层结构的外包体1。When co-firing, the first material part and the second material part have adjacent parts, for the convenience of distinguishing description, the part adjacent to the first material part and the second material part can be called the first adjacent part 1. The part where the second material part is adjacent to the first material part is called the second adjacent part, and the first adjacent part and the second adjacent part can be co-fired to form a transition part 11, and the material of the transition part 11 is different from that of the first The material part and the second material part, the aforementioned inner core body 2 actually refers to the rest of the first material part except the first adjacent part, and the aforementioned outer casing 1 refers to the second material part except the second adjacent part. The combination of the rest of the part and the transition part 11, the rest of the second material part except the second adjacent part and the transition part 11 form the outer casing 1 with a two-layer structure.
过渡部11的介电常数可以在第一材料部的介电常数和第二材料部的介电常数之间,也可以小于第二材料部,这具体与共烧时所使用的材料有关。内芯体2和外包体1之间的强反射界面实际上形成在过渡部11和第一材料部中除第一邻接部分外的其余部分之间。The dielectric constant of the transition part 11 can be between the dielectric constant of the first material part and the dielectric constant of the second material part, or can be smaller than the second material part, which is specifically related to the materials used during co-firing. The strongly reflective interface between the inner core body 2 and the outer casing body 1 is actually formed between the transition portion 11 and the rest of the first material portion except the first adjacent portion.
第一材料部和第二材料部可以直接进行共烧,即可以不添加任何其他材料,此时,过渡部11可以为第一邻接部分和第二邻接部分的共烧衍生物。或者,第一材料部和第二材料部在进行共烧时,也可以适当地添加一些辅助添加材料,此时,过渡部11可以为第一邻接部分、第二邻接部分以及辅助添加材料的共烧衍生物。The first material portion and the second material portion may be directly co-fired, that is, no other material may be added.
