Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Überlagerungs empfang eines modulierten Signals durch herabmischen desselben auf eine Null-Zwischenfrequenz, nach dem Oberbe griff des Patentanspruchs 1. Der Ausdruck "Null-Zwischen frequenz" wird hier verwendet um anzudeuten, daß das Mischergebnis ein mindstens die Modulation enthaltendes Signal ist, dessen Trägerfrequenz nominell Null ist, aber aus verschiedenen Gründen um einen kleinen Betrag von Null verschieden sein kann. Im folgenden soll dieser eventuelle Unterschied nicht berücksichtigt werden, d. h. es soll vereinfacht eine Zwischenfrequenz von Null angenommen werden.The invention relates to a method for superimposition receiving a modulated signal by mixing it down the same to a zero intermediate frequency, according to the Oberbe handle of claim 1. The expression "zero-intermediate frequency "is used here to indicate that the Mixing result at least containing the modulation Signal whose carrier frequency is nominally zero, but off various reasons by a small amount of zero can be different. In the following, this eventual Difference is not taken into account, d. H. it should simplified an intermediate frequency of zero will.
Solche Verfahren (Direktempfang, direct conversion, homo dyne, synchrodyne, Quadraturempfang) begegneten lange Zeit großen Schwierigkeiten bei der Ausführung in der Praxis, wie zum Beispiel aus dem Artikel von Saleh R. Al-Aradji und W. Gosling "A direct conversion v. h. f. receiver", The Radio and Electronic Engineer, Vol. 43, No. 7, Juli 1973, S. 442-446 hervorgeht.Such procedures (direct reception, direct conversion, homo dyne, synchrodyne, quadrature reception) met for a long time great difficulty in performing in practice, such as from the article by Saleh R. Al-Aradji and W. Gosling "A direct conversion from f. Receiver", The Radio and Electronic Engineer, Vol. 43, No. 7, July 1973, pp. 442-446 emerges.
Eines der verbliebenden Probleme war das Vermeiden uner wünschter Rückstrahlungen des Empfängers nach außen, bedingt durch vergleichsweise starke empfangsfrequente Lokaloszillatorsignale (LO-Signale) im Mischer.One of the remaining problems was avoiding them desired reflections of the receiver to the outside, due to comparatively strong reception frequencies Local oscillator signals (LO signals) in the mixer.
Immerhin war man gemäß dem erwähnten Artikel soweit, daß monolytische integrierte Schaltungen für den größten Teil eines Empfängers herstellbar waren.After all, according to the article mentioned, it was so far that monolytic integrated circuits for the most part of a receiver could be produced.
In der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift 23 58 288 ist aus diesen Gründen vorgeschlagen, zwischen Antenne und Mi schern eine Schaltung einzusetzen, die eine geringe Durch laßdämpfung in Richtung von Antenne zum Empfänger, d. h. Mischer, und eine hohe Durchlaßdämpfung vom Empfänger zur Antenne aufweist. Einzelheiten dieser Schaltung fehlen in der Schrift. In German Offenlegungsschrift 23 58 288 is out these reasons suggested between antenna and Mi scher use a circuit that has a low through attenuation in the direction from antenna to receiver, d. H. Mixer, and a high transmission loss from the receiver to Has antenna. Details of this circuit are missing in the Font.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die Isolation des Empfänger eingangs gegen solche Störsignale auf der Empfangsfrequenz zu verbessern.The object of the invention is to isolate the receiver initially against such interference signals on the reception frequency to improve.
Dies wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Patentanspruchs 1 dargelegten Maßnahmen erreicht. Es kann dies durch wiederholtes Abwärtsmischen oder durch Kombinationen von Aufwärts- mit Abwärtsmischungen geschehen. In beiden Fällen ist jede Oszillatorfrequenz von der Empfangsfrequenz ver schieden und deshalb keine Rückstrahlung auf Emp fangsfrequenz möglich.This is indicated in the characterizing part of patent claim 1 outlined measures achieved. It can do this through repeated downmixing or by combinations of Happen upward with downward blends. In both cases is each oscillator frequency ver from the receiving frequency divorced and therefore no reflection on Emp frequency possible.
Natürlich ist mehrfaches Mischen beim Superhet bekannt, jedoch nicht bis auf eine Null-Zwischenfrequenz hinunter. Ferner ist beim Doppelsuper ein zweifaches Mischen bekannt; die LO-Frequenzen stehen aber nicht in einem konstanten, von der Eingangsfrequenz unabhängigen Verhältnis zueinan der. Of course, multiple mixing is known with the Superhet, but not down to a zero intermediate frequency. Furthermore, double mixing is known in the double super; but the LO frequencies are not in a constant, relationship independent of the input frequency the.
In den weiteren Patentansprüchen sind vorteilhafte Ausfüh rungsarten der Erfindung angegeben. So ist im Patentan spruch 3 ein Überlagerungsempfänger umschrieben, bei wel chem der Aufwand besonders klein ist.Advantageous embodiments are in the further claims tion types of the invention. So is in the patent saying 3 an overlay recipient, at wel chem the effort is particularly small.
Durch ein entsprechend dem Patentanspruch 5 bemessenes Filter wird vermieden, daß infolge unerwünschter Misch produkte eine andere als die vorgesehene Frequenz empfangen wird.By a dimensioned according to claim 5 Filter is avoided due to undesirable mixing receive a different frequency than the intended frequency becomes.
Die Erfindung wird im folgenden an einem Beispiel erläutert.The invention is explained below using an example.
Fig. 1 zeigt ein Blockschema des entsprechenden Überlage rungsempfängers. In Richtung des Signalflusses folgen auf die Antenne 1 ein Vorfilter 2, ein Vorverstärker 3 und, gemäß der Erfindung, ein Vormischer 4. Danach wird das Signal auf die beiden in Quadratur stehenden Hauptmischer 5 und 6 verteilt, deren Ausgangssignale als Null-Zwischen frequenz den entsprechenden weiteren Einheiten 7 und 8 zugeführt werden. Es können dies Tiefpaßfilter und weitere Quadraturstufen sein, die als bekannt nicht einzeln darge stellt sind. Die Null-Zwischenfrequenz kann infolge nicht vermeidbarer Fehler bis etwa ±20% der ZF-Bandbreite von Null verschieden sein. Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of the corresponding overlay receiver. A pre-filter 2 , a pre-amplifier 3 and, according to the invention, a pre-mixer 4 follow the antenna 1 in the direction of the signal flow. Then the signal is distributed to the two main mixers 5 and 6 in quadrature, the output signals of which are fed to the corresponding further units 7 and 8 as a zero intermediate frequency. It can be low-pass filter and other quadrature stages, which are not individually known as Darge presents. As a result of unavoidable errors, the zero intermediate frequency can differ from zero up to approximately ± 20% of the IF bandwidth.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist für den Vormischer 4 und die beiden Hauptmischer 5 und 6 ein gemeinsamer Oszillator 9 vorgesehen, dessen Frequenz die Hälfte derjenigen des empfangenen Signals ist. Ein Phasenschieber 10 zwischen Oszillator 9 und Hauptmischer 5 sorgt für die Qua draturwirkung, d. h. eine Phasenverschiebung von 90° zwi schen den Oszillatoreingängen der Hauptmischer 5 und 6. According to the invention, a common oscillator 9 is provided for the premixer 4 and the two main mixers 5 and 6 , the frequency of which is half that of the received signal. A phase shifter 10 between the oscillator 9 and the main mixer 5 ensures the quadrature effect, ie a phase shift of 90 ° between the oscillator inputs of the main mixer 5 and 6 .
Dieser Empfänger eignet sich besonders für phasen- bzw. frequenzmodulierte Mobilfunknetze.This receiver is particularly suitable for phase or frequency-modulated cellular networks.
Die Erfindung kann noch auf andere Art als in der soeben beschriebenen ausgeführt werden.The invention can still be in a different way than in the just described.
Unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen, wie z. B. einer hochselek tiven Antenne mit hohem Gewinn, können Vorfilter 2 und/ oder Vorverstärker weggelassen werden.Under certain conditions, such as B. a highly selective antenna with high gain, pre-filter 2 and / or preamplifier can be omitted.
Für Anwendungen im Rundfunk, insbesondere Farbfernsehen kann auch die an sich bekannte Synchronempfängerschaltung entsprechend ausgestaltet werden. Das Synchronisiersignal wird dann z. B. vor dem Vormischer abgezweigt und dient zur Synchronisierung einer halb so schnell schwingenden Fre quenzregelschaltung (PLL) als gemeinsamen Lokaloszillator für die Vor- und Hauptmischer.For applications in broadcasting, in particular color television, the known synchronous receiver circuit can also be designed accordingly. The synchronizing signal is then z. B. branched off in front of the pre-mixer and is used to synchronize a frequency oscillating circuit (PLL) that vibrates half as fast as a common local oscillator for the pre-mixer and main mixer.
Diese und weitere mögliche Varianten sind der gebotenen Kürze halber hier nicht im einzelnen dargestellt.These and other possible variants are the ones offered For brevity not shown here in detail.
