Description

相位檢測系統及其使用方法 Phase detection system and method of using the same

本發明是關於一種檢測系統,特別是用於判斷射頻相控元件及相控陣列天線系統是否損壞的相位檢測系統。 The present invention relates to a detection system, in particular a phase detection system for determining whether a radio frequency phased element and a phased array antenna system are damaged.

圖1是來自ANALOG DEVICES的產品使用文件「Evaluating the ADAR1000 8GHz to 16GHz,4-Channel,X Band and Ku Band Beamformer」,從圖1中可以知道其檢測一波束成形晶片BFIC的方式是將網路分析儀VNA串聯鎖接該波束成形晶片BFIC之評估板上的接頭以量測各埠的振幅及相位。 Figure 1 is from the product documentation "Evaluating the ADAR1000 8GHz to 16GHz, 4-Channel, X Band and Ku Band Beamformer" from ANALOG DEVICES. From Figure 1, we can see that the way to detect a beamforming chip BFIC is to connect the network analyzer VNA in series to the connector on the evaluation board of the beamforming chip BFIC to measure the amplitude and phase of each port.

圖2是將上述串聯檢測的方式實施在一相控陣列天線系統AR。該相控陣列天線系統AR包括多數個天線元件11、多個相移器PS及多個可變衰減器12,通常在大型相控陣列天線的設計中該等天線元件11的數目都是數千個,若採用圖1的檢測方式,就必須斷開數千個相移器PS前後的線路,並接上數千個轉接頭(圖2未示出)才能進行檢測,這不但是過大而難以實行的工程,且對於毫米波頻段的該相控陣列天線系統AR也沒有足夠的空間能焊鎖量測接頭,此外,該等相移器PS在圖2沒有該等天線11及該等可變衰減器12的影響下所測得振幅及相位與圖3該等相移器PS有連接該等天線11及該等可變衰減器12並處於實際工作狀態下的表現通常不會一致。 FIG2 shows the implementation of the above-mentioned serial detection method in a phased array antenna system AR. The phased array antenna system AR includes a plurality of antenna elements 11, a plurality of phase shifters PS, and a plurality of variable attenuators 12. Usually, in the design of a large-scale phased array antenna, the number of the antenna elements 11 is thousands. If the detection method of FIG1 is adopted, the lines before and after the thousands of phase shifters PS must be disconnected, and thousands of adapters (not shown in FIG2) must be connected to perform the detection. This is not only too large but also difficult to operate. The engineering practice is not feasible, and there is not enough space to weld the measurement connectors for the phased array antenna system AR in the millimeter wave band. In addition, the amplitude and phase measured by the phase shifters PS without the influence of the antennas 11 and the variable attenuators 12 in FIG2 are usually inconsistent with the performance of the phase shifters PS connected to the antennas 11 and the variable attenuators 12 in FIG3 and in actual working state.

為了解決上述的問題,本申請將提出一種相位檢測系統及其使用 方法,能夠對圖3這種在實際工作狀態下的該相控陣列天線系統AR進行各個連續節點13的相位檢測,且該種相位檢測系統及其使用方法也不影響該相控陣列天線系統AR的正常運作。 In order to solve the above problems, this application proposes a phase detection system and its use method, which can perform phase detection of each continuous node 13 of the phased array antenna system AR in the actual working state as shown in Figure 3, and the phase detection system and its use method will not affect the normal operation of the phased array antenna system AR.

本發明的效果在於: The effects of the present invention are:

(1)、採用該高阻抗探針,因此,從該待測電路看進該高阻抗探針的阻抗極大(至少大於1k歐姆)可視為開路,所以該高阻抗探針對該待測電路的影響幾乎可以忽略,進而解決圖1、2的先前技術必須要斷開電路元件再串聯量測的缺點。 (1) The high impedance probe is used. Therefore, the impedance of the high impedance probe seen from the circuit to be tested is extremely large (at least greater than 1k ohm) and can be regarded as an open circuit. Therefore, the impact of the high impedance probe on the circuit to be tested can be almost ignored, thereby solving the disadvantage of the previous technology of Figures 1 and 2 that the circuit components must be disconnected and then connected in series for measurement.

(2)、本申請中的該第一高阻抗探針或該第二高阻抗探針與該高阻抗探針均是相同的高阻抗探針,僅是為了便於說明故給予不同編號名稱,故各實施例都具有前述(1)的效果。 (2) The first high-impedance probe or the second high-impedance probe and the high-impedance probe in this application are the same high-impedance probes, and are given different numbers for the sake of convenience. Therefore, each embodiment has the effect of the above (1).

(3)、利用圖形辨識單元就能以圖形辨識的方式快速的比對該相對 相位值是否位於該誤差範圍內,故該分析儀可以採用能輸出時域(Time domain)訊號的示波器或具有頻域轉時域功能的訊號分析儀,無須如圖1的先前技術只能採用網路分析儀量測,能達到更彈性的儀器設備選擇。 (3) By using the graphic recognition unit, the relative phase value can be quickly compared in a graphic recognition manner to see if it is within the error range. Therefore, the analyzer can use an oscilloscope that can output time domain signals or a signal analyzer with a frequency domain to time domain conversion function. It is not necessary to use a network analyzer for measurement as in the previous technology shown in Figure 1, which can achieve more flexible instrument selection.

參閱圖4,為了解決先前技術的問題,本發明的第一較佳實施例提出了一種相位檢測系統,用以並聯量測一射頻訊號流經一待測電路2上任何一節點N上的一相對相位值。舉例而言,該待測電路2用於相控陣列天線系統AR,該待測電路2包含多數個相移器PS、多個可變衰減器12,及一個功率放大器PA,每一路相移器PS對應串聯一個天線元件11。 Referring to FIG. 4 , in order to solve the problems of the prior art, the first preferred embodiment of the present invention proposes a phase detection system for parallel measurement of a relative phase value of a radio frequency signal flowing through any node N on a circuit 2 to be tested. For example, the circuit 2 to be tested is used in a phased array antenna system AR, and the circuit 2 to be tested includes a plurality of phase shifters PS, a plurality of variable attenuators 12, and a power amplifier PA, and each phase shifter PS corresponds to an antenna element 11 in series.

該第一較佳實施例的相位檢測系統包含一高阻抗探針3、一分析儀4及一圖形辨識單元5。 The phase detection system of the first preferred embodiment includes a high impedance probe 3, an analyzer 4 and a graphic recognition unit 5.

該高阻抗探針3包括一接地端31、一探測端32,及一量測訊號輸出端33。該接地端31用以電連接該待測電路2的一接地面21,該探測端32用以碰觸該待測電路2的該節點N,該量測訊號輸出端33所輸出的一量測相位訊號相依於該節點N處的該射頻訊號。 The high impedance probe 3 includes a ground terminal 31, a detection terminal 32, and a measurement signal output terminal 33. The ground terminal 31 is used to electrically connect to a ground plane 21 of the circuit 2 to be tested, the detection terminal 32 is used to touch the node N of the circuit 2 to be tested, and the measurement signal output terminal 33 outputs a measurement phase signal that depends on the RF signal at the node N.

該分析儀4電連接該高阻抗探針3並接收該量測相位訊號,並根據該量測相位訊號的波形及一預設訊號的波形進行至少一個周期時間的連續作圖以產生一XY軸四象限圖,其中,該預設訊號與該量測相位訊號的頻率相同,該預設訊號與該量測相位訊號兩者於同一時間各自的一振幅分別作為該XY軸四象限圖中的一X軸數值及一Y軸數值。 The analyzer 4 is electrically connected to the high impedance probe 3 and receives the measured phase signal, and performs continuous plotting for at least one cycle time according to the waveform of the measured phase signal and the waveform of a preset signal to generate an XY axis four-quadrant diagram, wherein the preset signal has the same frequency as the measured phase signal, and the amplitudes of the preset signal and the measured phase signal at the same time are respectively used as an X-axis value and a Y-axis value in the XY axis four-quadrant diagram.

該圖形辨識單元5電連接該分析儀4,該圖形辨識單元5用以讀取該XY軸四象限圖,並將該XY軸四象限圖與預設的一標準參考圖進行比對,以判別該節點N上的該相對相位值是否位於一誤差範圍內,當該節點N的該相對相位值是位於該誤差範圍內時,該圖形辨識單元5判斷該待測電路2的該節點N符合良率,當該節點N的該相對相位值超出該誤差範圍時,該圖形辨識單元5判斷該待測電路2的該節點N不符合良率。 The graphic recognition unit 5 is electrically connected to the analyzer 4. The graphic recognition unit 5 is used to read the XY axis four-quadrant diagram and compare the XY axis four-quadrant diagram with a preset standard reference diagram to determine whether the relative phase value on the node N is within an error range. When the relative phase value of the node N is within the error range, the graphic recognition unit 5 determines that the node N of the circuit 2 to be tested meets the yield. When the relative phase value of the node N exceeds the error range, the graphic recognition unit 5 determines that the node N of the circuit 2 to be tested does not meet the yield.

補充說明,由於「相位」是一種相對值而非絕對值,所以該待測電路2上的任何一個節點N處的相位都必須相對一個參考基準才能被定義出來,例如本較佳實施例中該相對相位值是相對於該預設訊號而得到,進一步說明,若將該預設訊號作為相位為0的參考基準,則該預設訊號的時域波形可以用數學公式x=cos(ωt)表示,則被該分析儀4讀出來的該量測相位訊號其時域波形以數 學式子呈現就是y=cos(ωt+θ°),則將x=cos(ωt)及y=cos(ωt+θ°)進行XY直角座標作圖,就可以得到例如圖5的該XY軸四象限圖,從中可以發現隨著θ不同,該XY軸四象限圖隨著t=0~T連續作圖得到的圖形態樣就會不同,參數T是該射頻訊號的一個週期時間。 To supplement, since "phase" is a relative value rather than an absolute value, the phase at any node N on the circuit to be tested 2 must be defined relative to a reference standard. For example, in the preferred embodiment, the relative phase value is obtained relative to the preset signal. To further explain, if the preset signal is used as a reference standard with a phase of 0, the time domain waveform of the preset signal can be expressed by the mathematical formula x = cos( ωt ). The time domain waveform of the measured phase signal read by the analyzer 4 is expressed in the mathematical formula y = cos( ωt +θ°). Then, x = cos( ωt ) and y = cos( ωt ) can be expressed in the mathematical formula y = cos(ωt +θ°). t+θ°), the XY-axis four-quadrant diagram can be obtained, for example, as shown in FIG5 . It can be found that as θ changes, the XY-axis four-quadrant diagram obtained by continuous plotting from t=0 to T will have different shapes. The parameter T is a cycle time of the RF signal.

參閱圖6,假設被量測的該節點N處所期望的相對相位值是45°,將y=cos(ωt+45°)相對x=cos(ωt)連續作圖一個時間周期就可以得到一橢圓曲線S1,並將包含該橢圓曲線S1的XY軸四象限圖作為該標準參考圖,如果被量測的該節點N處的相對相位值是40°或者是50°,則會得到不同的橢圓曲線S2、S3,因此,該圖形辨識單元5就可以利用上述圖形辨識的方式判別量測到的該相對相位值是否位於該誤差範圍以內,若是位於誤差範圍以內,則被量測的該節點N符合良率,反之則不符合良率。另外,圖6也可說明該誤差範圍的界定方式,例如符合良率的該節點N所對應的該相對相位值希望是符合40°<θ°<50°的條件,則y=cos(ωt+θ°)的一曲線就必須介於y=cos(ωt+40°)及y=cos(ωt+45°)的這兩個橢圓曲線S2、S3之間。 Referring to FIG. 6 , assuming that the expected relative phase value at the measured node N is 45°, an elliptical curve S1 can be obtained by continuously plotting y = cos(ω t +45°) relative to x = cos(ω t ) for a time period, and the XY axis four-quadrant diagram containing the elliptical curve S1 is used as the standard reference diagram. If the relative phase value at the measured node N is 40° or 50°, different elliptical curves S2 and S3 will be obtained. Therefore, the graphic recognition unit 5 can use the above-mentioned graphic recognition method to determine whether the measured relative phase value is within the error range. If it is within the error range, the measured node N meets the yield, otherwise it does not meet the yield. In addition, Figure 6 can also illustrate how to define the error range. For example, the relative phase value corresponding to the node N that meets the yield is expected to meet the condition of 40°<θ°<50°, so the curve y = cos(ω t +θ°) must be between the two elliptical curves S2 and S3 of y = cos(ω t +40°) and y = cos(ω t +45°).

本發明的效果在於: The effects of the present invention are:

(1)、採用該高阻抗探針3,因此,從該待測電路2看進該高阻抗探針3的阻抗極大(至少大於1k歐姆)可視為開路,所以該高阻抗探針3對該待測電路2的影響幾乎可以忽略,進而解決圖1、2的先前技術必須要斷開電路元件再串聯量測的缺點。 (1) The high impedance probe 3 is used. Therefore, the impedance of the high impedance probe 3 seen from the circuit 2 to be tested is extremely large (at least greater than 1k ohm) and can be regarded as an open circuit. Therefore, the influence of the high impedance probe 3 on the circuit 2 to be tested can be almost ignored, thereby solving the disadvantage of the prior art of Figures 1 and 2 that the circuit components must be disconnected and then connected in series for measurement.

(2)、本申請中的該第一高阻抗探針3’或該第二高阻抗探針3”與該高阻抗探針3均是相同的高阻抗探針,僅是為了便於說明故給予不同編號名稱,故各實施例都具有前述(1)的效果。 (2) The first high-impedance probe 3' or the second high-impedance probe 3" in this application are the same high-impedance probes as the high-impedance probe 3. They are given different numbers for the sake of convenience. Therefore, each embodiment has the effect of the above (1).

(3)、利用圖形辨識單元5就能以圖形辨識的方式快速的比對該相對相位值是否位於該誤差範圍內,故該分析儀4可以採用能輸出時域(Time domain)訊號的示波器或具有頻域轉時域功能的訊號分析儀,無須如圖1的先前技術只能採用網路分析儀量測,能達到更彈性的儀器設備選擇。 (3) The graphic recognition unit 5 can be used to quickly compare whether the relative phase value is within the error range by means of graphic recognition. Therefore, the analyzer 4 can adopt an oscilloscope that can output time domain signals or a signal analyzer with a frequency domain to time domain conversion function. It is not necessary to use a network analyzer for measurement as in the prior art shown in FIG. 1, which can achieve more flexible instrument selection.
