在介绍本申请实施例之前,首先对本申请涉及的背景技术进行介绍说明。
射频收发机是通信系统中的前端部分,一般包括发射通路和接收通路,其中发射通路用于发射射频信号,接收通路用于接收射频信号。随着频谱资源的开发,出现了包括多个工作频段的多频段系统,由于多频段系统具有自适应性与可扩缩性的优点,因此设计能够支持多频段系统的射频收发机,成为主要发展方向。
如图1所示为一种射频收发机,该射频收发机通过单独设置多个发射通路和多个接收通路,从而实现不同频段的射频信号的发送或接收,以支持多频带系统。该射频收发机中包括上混频电路、下混频电路、发射通路1至发射通路P、以及接收通路1至接收通路Q等器件。其中,每个发射通路或接收通路与天线耦合,P和Q均为大于1的整数,每个发射通路或接收通路用于传输一个固定频段的射频信号,每个发射通路或接收通路中设置有与该频段对应的放大器和滤波器等器件。上述放大器的输入端可以等效为下述实施例所述的射频输入端,放大器的输出端可以等效为下述实施例所述的射频输出端,射频输入端用于输入射频信号,放大器用于放大射频信号,射频输出
端用于输出放大后的射频信号。
例如,发射通路1用于传输频段为f1的射频信号,该发射通路1中可以包括放大器a1和带通滤波器f1,发射通路P用于传输频段为fP的射频信号,该发射通路P中可以包括放大器aP和带通滤波器fP。接收通路1用于传输频段为F1的射频信号,该接收通路1中可以包括放大器A1和带通滤波器F1,接收通路Q用于传输频段为FQ的射频信号,该接收通路Q中可以包括放大器AQ和带通滤波器FQ。
上述上混频电路用于根据基带信号产生射频信号,上述发射通路1至发射通路P中对应的放大器用于对该射频信号进行功率放大处理,功率放大处理后的射频信号可以经天线发送。上述天线还可以用于接收射频信号,上述接收通路1至接收通路Q中对应的放大器用于对该射频信号进行功率放大处理,下混频电路用于根据该功率放大处理后的射频信号产生基带信号。
但是,当上述多频段系统的类型变化时,例如,从第四代无线系统变化为第五代无线系统时,该变化后的多频段系统包括的工作频段也将变化,由于上述每个发射通路或接收通路对应的频段为固定值,上述射频收发机将无法继续支持该类型变化后的多频段系统。并且,上述射频收发机中,当多频段系统包括多个频段时,需要独立设置多个发射通路或多个接收通路,每个发射通路或接收通路与一个频段对应,每个通路中设置与传输的频段对应的放大器和滤波器等器件,将会导致射频收发机的体积大、成本高。
为了实现上述射频收发机支持的频段可调整,减小该射频收发机的体积,降低成本,需要对射频收发机中的发射通路和接收通路重新设计。
如图2所示为一种射频放大电路,该射频放大电路的输入端为射频输入端,该射频放大电路的输出端为射频输出端,该射频放大电路可以用于替换上述发射通路中的放大器,或者,可以用于替换上述接收通路中的放大器,该射频放大电路通过设置多频带匹配网络,实现不同频段的射频信号的发送或接收。具体的,该射频放大电路包括依次耦合的输入多频带匹配网络、放大器1、级间多频带匹配网络、放大器2和输出多频带匹配网络。其中,输入多频带匹配网络用于接收多个频段的射频信号(例如,f1、f2和f3等频段的射频信号),输出多频带匹配网络用于输出多个频段的射频信号,输入多频带匹配网络和输出多频带匹配网络用于实现射频放大电路的输出功率的最大化,级间多频带匹配网络用于实现射频放大电路输出增益的最大化,放大器1和放大器2用于放大射频信号的功率。
如图2所示的射频放大电路通过设置多频带匹配网络,能够使一条通路支持多个频段的射频信号的传输。与图1所示的射频收发机相比,采用图2所示的射频放大电路的射频收发机,不需要单独设置多个发射通路或多个接收通路,可以减少放大器的数量,从而能够减少射频收发机的体积,降低成本。但是,上述射频放大电路中的多频带匹配网络的内部通常包括与各频段对应的匹配网络。例如,如图3所示,该多频带匹配网络包括:与f1频段对应的匹配网络f1,与f2频段对应的匹配网络f2,与f3频段对应的匹配网络f3等匹配网络,其中匹配网络包括电容、电阻、电感和变压器等器件。
为了实现上述射频收发机支持的频段可调整,进一步减小射频放大电路的体积、
降低成本,可以将上述射频放大电路中的,级间多频带匹配网络重新设置为可调谐选频网络,将输入多频带匹配网络和输出多频带匹配网络重新设置为宽带匹配网络。
如图4所示为本申请实施例提供的一种射频放大电路,该射频放大电路的输入端为射频输入端,该射频放大电路的输出端为射频输出端,该射频放大电路包括依次耦合的输入宽带匹配网络、放大器3、可调谐选频网络、放大器4和输出宽带匹配网络。其中,上述可调谐选频网络的谐振频率可调,从而能够实现射频放大电路支持的频段可调整,能够实现射频收发机支持的频段可调整。
示例性的,如图5所示为一种可调谐选频网络,该可调谐选频网络通过电容值可调整的可调谐电容实现谐振频率的调整,该可调谐电容包括开关电容1至开关电容6,每个开关电容内部包括对应的开关和电容,通过调整开关的导通或关断,将对应的开关电容导通或关断,从而调整上述可调谐电容的容值,以调整该可调谐选频网络的等效电容的容值,实现射频放大电路支持的频段的调整。
其中,上述可调谐电容可以为多比特(bit)可调谐电容(或者,可以称为数字可编程电容器)。示例性的,该多bit可调谐电容可以包括8个开关电容,该8个开关电容可以通过3bits的二进制数进行编码,每个开关电容内部包括相对应的开关和电容,通过调整开关的导通或关断,将对应的开关电容导通或关断,从而调整该多bit可调谐电容的容值。
如图4所示的射频放大电路,通过设置输入宽带匹配网络、可调谐选频网络和输出宽带匹配网络,能够实现射频放大电路支持的频段可调,而且,与图1所示的射频收发机相比,不需要单独设置多个发射通路和多个接收通路,因此可以减小射频放大电路的体积,降低成本。
下面以如图6中的(a)所示的理想并联RLC谐振网络为例,对上述可调谐选频网络的原理进行详细说明,该理想并联RLC谐振网络包括并联设置的电阻R、电容C和电感L。在并联RLC谐振网络中,谐振频率的计算公式为:
其中,f表示谐振频率,L为电感L的感值,C为电感C的容值。当电容C的容值变大,或者,电感L的感值变大时,上述理想并联RLC谐振网络的谐振频率将变小。当电容C的容值变小,或者,电感L的感值变小时,上述理想并联RLC谐振网络的谐振频率将变大。
在上述并联RLC谐振网络中,角频率的计算公式为:
其中,ω表示角频率。当电容C的容值变大,或者,电感L的感值变大时,角频率ω的值变小。当电容C的容值变小,或者,电感L的感值变小时,角频率ω的值变大。
在谐振电路中,通过品质因子(或称为品质因数,或称为品质因素)Q,表征一个储能器件(如电感L、电容C等)所储能量与每周期损耗能量之比的一种质量指标,器件的Q值愈大,用该元件组成的电路或网络的选择性愈佳。在上述理想并联RLC谐
振网络中,结合上述谐振频率和角频率的计算公式,品质因子Q的计算公式可以表示为:
其中,上述R为电阻R的阻值。根据上式可知,在电阻R的阻值不变的情况下,当电容C的容值越大时,或者,当电感L的感值越小时,品质因子Q的值越大。在电阻R的阻值不变的情况下,当电容C的容值越小,或者,当电感L的感值越大时,品质因子Q的值越小。
在谐振网络中,一般以射频信号的增益下降3dB时,对应的两个频率确定的区间作为带宽,谐振频率为该带宽的中心频率,例如图6中的(b)所示,射频信号的增益下降3dB时,对应频率f1和频率f2,此时该谐振网络的带宽为f2-f1,该谐振网络的谐振频率为f0。上述带宽的宽度与品质因子Q的值相关,在上述理想并联RLC谐振网络中,结合上述谐振频率、角频率和品质因子的计算公式,带宽的计算公式可以表示为:
其中,BW表示带宽。根据上述带宽BW的计算公式,结合角频率ω和品质因子Q的计算公式可知,当电容C的容值越大时,角频率ω的值越小,品质因子Q的值越大,带宽BW越小。当电容C的容值越小时,角频率ω的值越大,品质因子Q的值越小,带宽BW越大。
根据上述谐振频率的计算公式可知,上述如图5所示的可调谐选频网络中,是通过调整开关电容的容值,从而改变可调谐选频网络的谐振频率。具体的,通过将开关电容的容值调大,从而将谐振频率调小;通过将开关电容的容值调小,从而将谐振频率调大。但是,根据上述角频率ω、品质因子Q和带宽BW的计算公式可知,在电容C变大,角频率ω的值变小时,品质因子Q的值将变大,带宽BW将变小。当电容C变小,角频率ω的值变大时,品质因子Q的值将变小,带宽BW将变大。可以理解的,在调整谐振频率的过程中,改变电容的容值而不改变电感的感值,由于品质因子Q的变化,应用该可调谐选频网络的射频放大电路的带宽会波动。
进一步的,为了使得上述可调谐选频网络的带宽稳定,可以通过在调整电容的容值时,同时调整电感的感值,以使得品质因子Q稳定,从而保证带宽BW相对稳定。
如图7所示为一种谐振腔并联电路,通过并联改变电容的容值,该谐振腔并联电路包括第一谐振腔和第二谐振腔。第一谐振腔中包括并联耦合的电阻R1、电容C1和电感L1,第二谐振腔中包括并联耦合的电阻R2、电容C2和电感L2。其中,电阻R1和电阻R2的阻值均为R,电容C1和电容C2的容值均为C,电感L1和电感L2的感值均为L,两个谐振腔的谐振频率均为f0。结合上述谐振频率的计算公式可知:
上述谐振腔并联电路中,等效电容的值和等效电感的值可以用如下公式表示:
Ceq=2C
Leq=L/2
Ceq=2C
Leq=L/2
其中,Ceq表示等效电容的值,Leq表示等效电感的值,结合上述谐振频率的计算公式可知:
可以理解的,将上述第一谐振腔和第二谐振腔并联耦合,组成谐振腔并联电路,该谐振腔并联电路的谐振频率f1,与第一谐振腔或第二谐振腔的谐振频率f0,为相同的谐振频率。
通过使上述两个谐振腔的电感之间磁耦合,以使得上述谐振并联电路中的等效电感的值变化,从而调节该谐振并联电路的谐振频率。具体的,当该两个电感耦合的磁通量为正时,与两个电感之间没有磁耦合相比,电感的等效电感的值将会变大,并联谐振电路的谐振频率将变小;当两个电感耦合的磁通量为负时,与两个电感之间没有磁耦合相比,电感的等效电感的值将变小,并联谐振电路的谐振频率变大。
如图8所示为一种并联谐振电路,该谐振腔并联电路包括第一谐振腔和第二谐振腔。第一谐振腔中包括并联耦合的电阻R1、电容C1和电感L1,第二谐振腔中包括并联耦合的电阻R2、电容C2和电感L2。其中,电阻R1和电阻R2的阻值均为R,电容C1和电容C2的容值均为C,电感L1和电感L2的感值均为L,电感L1与L2磁耦合,耦合系数为k,当两个谐振腔内的电感L1与电感L2之间没有磁耦合时,该两个谐振腔的谐振频率均为f0,并联谐振电路的谐振频率也为f0,f0可以表示为:
该谐振腔并联电路中,等效电容的值和等效电感的值可以用如下公式表示:
Ceq=2C
Leq=(L+M)/2>L/2
Ceq=2C
Leq=(L+M)/2>L/2
其中,Ceq表示等效电容的值,Leq表示等效电感的值,M表示电感L1与电感L2之间的互感。
当需要将并联谐振电路的谐振频率调整为f1(f1=α·f0)时,可以将电感L1与电感L2之间的互感调整为:
其中,M表示电感L1与电感L2之间的互感,L表示电感L1或电感L2的感值,α表示谐振频率f1是谐振频率f0的α倍。
此时,并联谐振电路的等效电感的值Leq可以用下式表示:
再将等效电容的值Ceq进行调整,调整后等效电容的值Ceq可以用下式表示:
结合上述谐振频率的计算公式可知,该并联谐振电路的谐振频率f1可以用如下公式表示:
根据上述品质因子Q的计算公式可知,该并联谐振电路的品质因子Q1可以用如下公式表示:
根据上述带宽BW的计算公式可知,该并联谐振电路的带宽BW1可以用如下公式表示:
可以理解的,上述图5所示的可调谐选频网络中,通过改变电容的容值,从而调整该可调谐选频网络的谐振频率,但是,将改变该可调谐选频网络的品质因子的值,导致在不同谐振频率时带宽波动较大,而图8所示的谐振腔并联电路,通过在调整电感的感值时,根据电感的感值相应调整电容的容值,能够将谐振腔并联电路的谐振频率从f0调整至f1,并且不会改变该谐振腔并联电路的品质因子的值,从而能够保证该谐振腔并联电路的带宽相对稳定。
对于下文提供的由耦合谐振腔构成的变压器匹配网络,上述原理同样适用。

其中,Mij表示电感Li与电感Lj之间的互感的值,Kij表示电感Li与电感Lj之间的耦合系数,Li表示电感Li的电感值,Lj表示电感Lj的电感值。
由于上述放大器A1和放大器A3为放大倍数相同的放大器,放大器A2和放大器A4为放大倍数相同的放大器,上述电压V1至V4之间的关系可以用如下公式表示,
V1=V3
V2=V4

M12=M34=Mp
M13=M24=Mi
M14=M24=Mc
根据上述公式可以求出上述变压器匹配网络中,等效互感的感值Meq可以用如下公式表示,
根据上述公式可知,当放大器A1至A4均导通时,上述第一通路和第二通路均为导通的状态,该变压器匹配网络中电感L1的等效互感为该等效互感的感值大于而上述图7所示的谐振腔并联电路中电感L1的等效感值Leq=L/2,结合上述谐振频率的计算公式可知,该变压器匹配网络的谐振频率更低。可以理解的,当上述射频放大电路,采用该变频器匹配网络作为可调谐选频网络,能够调整谐振频率,而且
可以支持频率更低的频带,同时能够保证带宽的相对稳定。
结合图9,当上述放大器A1和A2导通,A2和A3关断时,上述第一通路为导通的状态,第二通路为关断的状态,上述图9所示的变压器匹配网络对应的等效电路可以如图11所示,该变压器匹配网络包括电感L1至电感L3,和寄生电容Cpar,该等效电路中的关系可以用如下公式表示:
其中,电压V1和电压V2表示电感L1和电感L2两端的电压,L1和L2表示电感L1和电感L2的感值,M12和M13等表示电感之间的互感,C表示寄生电容Cpar的容值,当寄生电容Cpar的容值为0,或者,为无穷大时,电感L1的等效感值可以用如下公式表示:
