如背景技术所述, 目前的频谱分析仪一般都是一体化, 射频接收, 信号 处理, 人机操作, 屏幕显示等都是装配于一个机箱结构, 对于只能支持预定 频段, 和一个测量通道。 为了克服这样的缺陷, 本申请实施例提出了一种分布式频谱分析仪, 将 频谱分析仪分为射频接收机和主机两部分, 由射频接收机进行信号接收, 对 接收到的信号进行变频处理及 AD转换, 并将转换后的数字信号发送至主机 进行信号处理和频谱分析, 在此结构中, 频谱分析仪的主机应用多接口设计, 可以支持同时接入控制多个射频接收机, 从而, 解决现有的技术方案中的频 谱分析仪只能通过单端口对固定频段进行频谱分析测量, 以及应用场景受限 的问题。
如图 2所示, 为本申请实施例所提出的一种分布式频谱分析仪的结构示 意图, 至少包括主机 21 , 以及一个或多个射频接收机 22, 在实际应用中, 分 布式频谱分析仪最低配置需要一台主机 21及一台射频接收机 22。
图 2中所示的射频接收机 1、射频接收机 2... ...射频接收机 N具体为分布 式频谱分析仪中所包括的 N个射频接收机 22, 图中以虚线表示的模块和部件 可以根据需要而扩展。
以下分别对分布式频谱分析仪的各组成部分进行具体说明。
射频接收机 22, 配置为从射频源接收射频信号 (在实际应用中, 由于信 号源的差异, 也可能接收到微波信号, 这仅是信号类型的改变, 这样的变化 并不影响本申请实施例所提出的后续技术方案的内容, 也不会不影响本申请 的保护范围 ),对该射频信号进行增益控制,变频和滤波处理,以及 AD( Analog to Digital, 模一数)转换, 并将 AD转换后的数字信号通过数字光模块 225 , 经由光纤发送给主机 21。
在本申请实施例中, 射频接收机 22的数量具体可以为一个或多个, 可以 根据需要进行测量分析的射频源进行相应的部署, 其所部署的位置与主机 21 的距离可以根据光纤部署的长度进行调整, 最远可以达到几十公里, 从而, 克服了现有技术中的一体式频谱分析仪必须将仪器部署在射频源直接相连的 现场, 才能进行测量分析的缺陷, 使射频测量分析的操作更加灵活方便。
如图 3所示, 为本申请实施例所提出的一种分布式频谱分析仪中的射频 接收机的结构示意图, 具体包括以下模块。
模拟信号处理模块 221 , 配置为接收射频 /微波信号, 并对射频 /微波信号 进行增益控制, 变频及滤波处理, 输出相应的模拟中频信号, 此处变频处理 的规则和方式取决于转换模块 222可采样的频率范围,模拟信号处理模块 221 进行变频处理的最终效果在于将接收到的信号变频至转换模块 222可采样的 频率范围, 以便进行后续的处理, 在达到相应的变频效果后, 模拟信号处理 模块 221将变频后的模拟中频信号发送给转换模块 222, 需要说明的是,模拟 信号处理模块 221 在此过程中的变频处理可以为一次或多次, 具体变频处理 次数的变化并不会影响本申请的保护范围。
转换模块 222,配置为对模拟信号处理模块 221进行变频处理后的模拟中 频信号进行 AD转换处理, 输出相应的数字信号, 考虑到频谱分析仪的最终 处理信号应为数字信号, 因此, 相应的模数转换操作由射频接收机 22中的转 换模块 222来完成, 具体的转换操作规则可以根据射频接收机 22所部署的射 频信号源的具体类型来进行调整。
通信模块 223,配置为将转换模块 222进行 AD转换处理后的数字信号通 过光纤发送给主机 21 , 此模块的作用在于对数字信号的转发。
在具体的处理场景中, 通信模块 223可以由 FPGA ( Field - Programmable
Gate Array, 现场可编程门阵列) 224和数字光模块 225组成。
FPGA224, 配置为对模拟信号处理模块 221进行时序控制, 并将转换模 块 222进行 AD转换处理后的数字信号转发给数字光模块 225。
数字光模块 225, 配置为将 FPGA224转发的数字信号通过光纤发送给主 机 21。
进一步的, 数字光模块 225在具体的应用场景中需要进行以下两方面的 处理:
( 1 )主机 21至射频接收机 22的控制信息传输。
数字光模块 225接收主机 21通过光纤发送的包含时钟信号、 控制指令和 数据信息的数字光信号, 转换为数字电信号, 并将所述数字电信号转发给 FPGA224, 以使 FPGA224根据该数字电信号的解析结果, 对模拟信号处理模 块 221进行时序控制。
通过以上的处理, 主机 21和射频接收机 22通过光纤进行包含时钟信息 的信号交互, 按照预定流程和预定义协议, 射频接收机 22的时钟锁定于主机 21 的时钟, 确保频谱分析测量过程中两者时钟信息的一致性, 保证了频谱分 析结果的准确性。
( 2 )射频接收机 22至主机 21的信号传输。
数字光模块 225接收所述 FPGA转发的数字电信号, 并将所述电数字信 号与本地管理信息组合按照预定格式打包成帧, 将数字电信号转换为数字光 信号, 通过光纤发送给所述主机 21。
需要说明的是, 主机 21和射频接收机 22之间的光纤传输协议, 可以根 据实际需要进行定义, 在能够保证光纤正常通信的情况下, 具体协议规则的 变化并不是本申请实施例所关心的重点, 在此不做描述。
另一方面, 为了实现对射频接收机 22的控制, 尤其是在主机 21与射频 接收机 22相距较远的情况下, 为了实现对射频接收机 22的远程操作和调节, 主机 21需要与射频接收机 22之间建立相应的控制机制, 因此, 在这样的应 用场景中, 射频接收机 22进一步还可以包括以下处理单元:
MCU ( Micro Control Unit,微控制单元) 226, 配置为根据数字光模块 225 所接收到的控制指令和数据信息,对 FPGA224, 以及射频接收机 22内部的各 电路和其他模块进行配置加载和故障管理, 此处理单元的作用在于根据主机
21 所发送的控制指令和数据信息对射频接收机 22进行相应的控制和配置处 理。
时钟恢复电路及参考源模块 227, 配置为对 FPGA224转发的时钟信号进 行恢复和去抖, 为模拟信号处理模块 221提供与主机 21的时钟信号相同步的 本地参考信号, 并为转换模块 222提供采样时钟。
通过以上的处理, 时钟恢复电路及参考源模块 227将主机 21的时钟信息 与射频接收机 22中的相关模块进行交互和同步, 从而, 使各模块可以按照主 机 21的时钟信息进行相应的处理, 射频接收机 22的时钟锁定于主机 21的时 钟, 确保频谱分析测量过程中两者时钟信息的一致性, 保证了频谱分析结果 的准确性。
如图 2所示, 主机 21包括数字信号处理模块 211 , 以及一个或多个数字 光模块 212。
其中, 每个数字光模块 212均可配置为通过光纤与一个射频接收机 22相 连接, 并接收射频接收机 22发送的 AD转换后的数字信号, 数字信号处理模 块 211则配置为对所接收到的所述 AD转换后的数字信号进行处理。
需要说明的是, 主机 21中所部署的数字光模块 212的数量可以根据需要 接入的射频接收机 22的数量进行调整, 从而, 使多个射频接收机 22同时与 主机 21相连接, 在需要进行不同的射频源的分析测量时, 可以直接进行射频 接收机 22的切换, 克服现有技术中只能通过单一接口对固定频率进行测量分 析的缺陷。
在具体的应用场景中, 上述的一个或多个射频接收机 22具体为相同类型 的射频接收机, 或不同类型的射频接收机(根据射频源进行调整)。
如图 4所示, 为本申请实施例所提出的一种分布式频谱分析仪中的主机 的结构示意图, 具体包括以下模块。
数字信号处理模块 211的作用与现有技术中的数字信号处理模块相类似, 配置为对数字信号的分析处理。
数字光模块 212, 配置为通过光纤与一个射频接收机 22相连接, 在具体 的处理场景中,一个数字光模块 212通过光纤只与一个射频接收机 22相连接, 从而, 保证了各射频接收机 22所传输的信号不会发生相互干扰, 而且, 主机 21可以直接通过相应的数字光模块 212的切换或启用, 实现对不同射频接收 机 22的调用, 即实现对不同射频源的信号获取, 而且在具体的测量分析过程 中, 通过接口隔离避免了信号的相互干扰, 克服了现有技术中的频谱分析仪 只能对单一频率进行测量, 以及频率更改过程繁瑣的问题。
需要说明的是, 对于数字信号处理模块 211 所分析处理后的数据结果, 根据具体的输出方式的差异, 主机 21的结构也存在相应的差异,
一方面, 数字信号处理模块 211 可以直接将分析结果所对应的数据信息 导出, 呈现给相应的操作者, 例如, 可以输出到外接的终端设备(例如计算 机), 存储为相应的文件, 或通过终端设备的显示器进行显示, 也可以直接将 相应的结果进行打印, 直接呈现在相应的报告单上。 另一方面, 主机 21上还可以再添加一个显示模块 213, 配置为将数字信 号处理模块 211对所述 AD转换后的数字信号的处理结果转换为图形曲线, 并进行显示。 的需要进行设定, 这样的变化并不影响本申请的保护范围。
在具体的应用场景下, 为了与前述的对射频接收机 21进行远程控制的场 景相对应, 主机 21还可以进一步包括以下模块。
主控模块 214, 配置为根据接收到的操作指令(具体的操作指令可以通过 主机 21上的控制按键进行触发, 也可以是通过外界的输入设备直接进行操作 指令的输入 ), 选择需要启用的射频接收机 22, 并向数字信号处理模块 211发 送相应的控制指令和数据信息。
时钟 215, 配置为输出时钟信号。
FPGA216, 分别与各数字光模块 212相连接, 配置为将数字信号处理模 块 211所转发的控制指令和数据信息, 以及时钟 215输出的时钟信号发送给 需要启用的射频接收机 22(主控模块 214所确定的)所对应的数字光模块 212, 由数字光模块 212通过光纤将包含所述时钟信号、 所述控制指令和所述数据 信息的数字光信号发送给相应的射频接收机 22,还配置为将各数字光模块 212 所转发的 AD转换后的数字信号发送给数字信号处理模块 211进行处理。
本申请实施例进一步提出了相应的处理方案, 如图 5 所示, 为本申请实施例 所提出的一种应用分布式频谱分析仪进行频谱分析的方法的流程示意图, 具 体包括以下步骤:
步骤 S501、 分别在各待分析射频信号源部署相应类型的射频接收机。 具体的, 所部署的射频接收机的数量具体可以为一个或多个, 可以根据 需要进行测量分析的射频源进行相应的部署。
而且, 所部署的射频接收机的类型可以相同, 也可以不同。
步骤 S502、 分别将各射频接收机通过光纤与主机上一个相应类型的数字 光模块相连接。
射频接收机所部署的位置与主机的距离可以根据光纤部署的长度进行调 整, 克服了现有技术中的一体式频谱分析仪必须将仪器部署在射频源直接相 连的现场, 才能进行测量分析的缺陷, 使射频测量分析的操作更加灵活方便。
步骤 S503、 启动所述主机和相应的所述射频接收机, 输入操作指令, 以 使所述主机接收所述射频接收机发送的 AD转换后的数字信号, 并进行频谱 分析处理。
具体的, 在本步骤中输入操作指令后, 主机中相应的处理过程如下:
( 1 )所述主机根据该操作指令, 确定当前需要进行频谱分析的待分析射 频信号源, 并选择需要启动的射频接收机。
根据需要进行测量的射频点, 选择需要启用的射频接收机, 在同一个射 频点部署了多个不同类型的射频接收机的情况下, 可以选择需要启用的相应 类型的射频接收机。
( 2 )所述主机通过光纤, 向所述需要启动的射频接收机发送包含时钟信 号、 控制指令和数据信息的数字光信号, 实现时钟同步和控制操作。
通过本步骤, 主机对远端的射频接收机进行相应的控制操作, 并实现了 相应的时钟同步。
( 3 )所述主机接收所述需要启动的射频接收机返回的 AD转换后的数字 信号, 进行频谱分析处理, 并将相应的处理结果转换为图形曲线进行显示。
与现有技术相比, 本申请实施例所提出的技术方案具有以下优点: 通过应用本申请实施例的技术方案, 对频谱分析仪采用分体设计, 由射 频接收机进行信号接收, 对接收到的信号进行变频处理及模数 AD转换, 并 将转换后的数字信号发送至主机进行信号处理和分析, 在此结构中, 一个或 多个射频接收机通过数字光模块, 经由光纤分别与主机上的相应数字光模块 相连接, 实现双向数据传输, 由主机进行系统的总体控制和信号处理, 频谱 分析, 从而, 使频谱分析仪的主机应用多接口设计, 可以支持同时接入控制 多个射频接收机, 非常方便的实现多端口测量扩展, 而射频接收机功耗和体 积小重量轻, 与主机采用数字光纤连接, 主机与射频接收机的安放距离最远 可以达到几十公里, 可以实现本地测量安装, 远程控制处理, 满足各种特殊 需求。 下面, 结合具体的应用场景, 对本申请实施例所提出的技术方案进行说 明。
本申请实施例提出分布式频谱分析仪的目的, 是解决现有频谱仪表的测 量频段固定, 不便于频段更换, 测量端口固定, 不便于扩展, 而且测量, 信 号处理和控制显示一体化的问题。
本申请实施例所提出的技术方案中, 频谱分析仪采用分体式结构, 整个 频谱分析仪分为两大部分: 射频接收机和主机。
( 1 )射频接收机和主机通过数字光纤进行互联, 接受主机的控制, 完成 对射频信号的变频处理及 AD转换,并将 AD转换后的数字信号传送到主机进 行后续处理。
( 2 )主机接收射频接收机的数字信号, 并进行信号处理, 完成系统的显 示, 控制等。 一台主机可以包含多个数字光模块, 可以支持同时接入多个射 频接收机, 非常方便实现多端口测量扩展。
通过上述的结构设置, 当需要频谱仪需要支持不同频段, 或支持对多个 射频通道进行分析时, 可以通过更换不同类型的射频接收机和在主机侧选择 下载相应的测量程序即可以实现, 无需更换不同型号频谱仪或采用多台传统 频语仪, 克服了现有技术中的频谱分析仪只能对单一频段进行测试的缺陷。
在本申请实施例所提出的分布式频谱分析仪中, 射频接收机只有射频接 收和 AD转换功能, 功耗, 体积, 重量相对于现有技术中的一体传统化频谱 分析仪要小很多, 对于特殊测量场景, 射频接收机更便于接近待测设备(即 前述的射频源), 主机则可以放置较远的地方, 便于操作观测, 这样的分体式 设计, 便于对特殊场景的测量分析, 尤其是在一些不便携带一体式频谱分析 仪的场景下, 更便于测量部署、 操作和观测。
在具体的应用场景中, 主机和射频接收机启动后, 通过光纤进行信号传 输, 按照预定流程和预定义协议, 射频接收机的时钟锁定于主机时钟。 完成 建立通信通道后, 其他操作功能同一般频谱仪功能类似。 主机和射频接收机 之间的光纤传输协议, 需要特殊定义, 在此不做描述。
如图 6所示, 为本申请实施例所提出的一种具体应用场景下的分布式频 谱分析仪的主机部分的结构示意图。
分布式频谱分析仪的主机功能和构架与现有技术中的一般频谱分析仪基 本相同, 但是不包含一般频谱分析仪的射频电路和 ADC电路。
其中,数字信号处理模块 61配置为对数字信号的分析处理, 显示模块 62 配置为将数字信号处理模块的处理结果转换为图形曲线进行显示, 人机交互 模块 63 配置为获取操作者对主机的操作指令(按键操作或指令输入), 主控 模块 64配置为根据操作指令进行射频接收机的选择, 以及相应的控制指令和 数据信息的生成, 时钟 65配置为输出时钟信号, 电源 66则配置为为主机供 电。
同时,本申请实施例所提出的分体式频谱分析仪中还增加了一个 FGPA67 和多个数字光模块 68作为接口电路,实现到 N个射频接收机的数字光纤接口, 数字光模块的配置根据需要接入的射频接收机配置。
如图 7所示, 为本申请实施例所提出的一种具体应用场景下的分布式频 谱分析仪的射频接收机部分的结构示意图。
射频接收机中的模拟信号处理模块 71和 ADC电路 72与现有技术中的一 般频谱分析仪中的相应模块的功能相类似, 完成射频信号的变频处理和 AD 转换。
为了实现与主机的交互,射频接收机需要增加 FGPA73和数字光模块 74, 配置为将 ADC电路 72处理完成的数字信号通过光纤发送给主机。
由于射频接收机是独立与主机之外的, 为了实现接收远程主机控制和本 地维护管理功能, 需要增加 MCU75, 以实现本设备的操作维护管理。 在具体 的处理场景中, 射频接收机需要接受主机的控制, 因此, 相应的控制指令和 数据信息也是通过数字光模块 74进行接收, 然后转发给 MCU75的, MCU75 据此对射频接收机内部的各个电路进行配置, 完成 FGPA73 的程序加载以及 射频接收机内部各单元的故障管理。
进一步的, 为了实现射频接收机对主机的时钟锁定, FGPA74和数字光模 块 75还需要接收主机传输的时钟信息和相应的数据,实现对本地状态的控制。 射频接收机中还部署了时钟恢复电路和本地参考源电路 76, 实现光纤传输过 来的时钟信号的恢复和去抖, 并且实现本地参考源 (为模拟信号处理模块 71 提供本地参考信号)和主机时钟同步 (为 ADC电路提供采样时钟),, 从而, 使各模块可以按照主机的时钟信息进行相应的处理, 射频接收机的时钟锁定 于主机的时钟, 确保频谱分析测量过程中两者时钟信息的一致性, 保证了频 谱分析结果的准确性。
按照上述的结构, 射频接收机中的各相应模块完成对所接收到的射频信 号的处理, 由 FGPA73和数字光模块 74将 ADC电路 72转化完成的数字信号 和本地管理信息组合, 按照预定格式打包成帧, 然后将这样的信号帧通过光 纤发送到主机, 由主机进行数字信号处理和显示。
此外, 由于射频接收机是独立的, 因此, 需要电源转换电路 77通过外部 输入的电源对本射频接收机进行供电。
在实际应用中, 射频接收机可以根据指标和功能不同 (比如支持的频段, ADC位数等)衍生有多种类型。
与现有技术相比, 本申请实施例所提出的技术方案具有以下优点: 通过应用本申请实施例的技术方案, 对频谱分析仪采用分体设计, 由射 频接收机进行信号接收, 对接收到的信号进行变频处理及模数 AD转换, 并 将转换后的数字信号发送至主机进行信号处理和分析, 在此结构中, 一个或 多个射频接收机通过数字光模块, 经由光纤分别与主机上的相应数字光模块 相连接, 实现双向数据传输, 由主机进行系统的总体控制和信号处理, 频谱 分析, 从而, 使频谱分析仪的主机应用多接口设计, 可以支持同时接入控制 多个射频接收机, 非常方便的实现多端口测量扩展, 而射频接收机功耗和体 积小重量轻, 与主机采用数字光纤连接, 主机与射频接收机的安放距离最远 可以达到几十公里, 可以实现本地测量安装, 远程控制处理, 满足各种特殊 需求。 相应的, 本申请实施例还提供了一种在其上记录有用于执行所述应用分 布式频谱分析仪进行频谱分析的方法的程序的计算机可读记录介质。
所述计算机可读记录介质包括用于以计算机(例如计算机)可读的形式 存储或传送信息的任何机制。 例如, 机器可读介质包括只读存储器(ROM )、 随机存取存储器( RAM )、 磁盘存储介质、 光存储介质、 闪速存储介质、 电、 光、 声或其他形式的传播信号 (例如, 载波、 红外信号、 数字信号等)等。
通过以上的实施方式的描述, 本领域的技术人员可以清楚地了解到本申 请实施例可以通过硬件实现, 也可以借助软件加必要的通用硬件平台的方式 来实现。 基于这样的理解, 本申请实施例的技术方案可以以软件产品的形式 体现出来, 该软件产品可以存储在一个非易失性存储介质 (可以是 CD-ROM, U盘, 移动硬盘等) 中, 包括若干指令用以使得一台计算机设备(可以是个 人计算机, 服务器, 或网络侧设备等)执行本申请实施例各个实施场景所述 的方法。
本领域技术人员可以理解附图只是一个优选实施场景的示意图, 附图中 的模块或流程并不一定是实施本申请实施例所必须的。
本领域技术人员可以理解实施场景中的装置中的模块可以按照实施场景 描述进行分布于实施场景的装置中, 也可以进行相应变化位于不同于本实施 场景的一个或多个装置中。 上述实施场景的模块可以合并为一个模块, 也可 以进一步拆分成多个子模块。
上述本申请实施例序号仅仅为了描述, 不代表实施场景的优劣。
以上公开的仅为本申请实施例的几个具体实施场景, 但是, 本申请实施 例并非局限于此, 任何本领域的技术人员能思之的变化都应落入本申请实施 例的业务限制范围。
