In order to realize that the signal under the above scene receives, existing various receiver technical solutions are mainly penetrated from simulationFrequency channel is started with, and uses some means and measure, mainly has:
(1) system front end carries out the separation of large-and small-signal by filter.This mode is most direct, but to filterIt is more demanding, especially signal frequency it is closely spaced in the case where, the method is invalid.
(2) it optimizes hardware circuit design, carries out reasonable gain distribution, the circuits such as amplifier, frequency mixer are optimized and are setMeter, improves the performance indicator of the linearity, but the hardware design difficulty of this mode is big, and degree of optimization is limited.
In conclusion the technical solution of existing receiver, to presence and the high reject signal near small signal frequency, ifThe amplitude of this high reject signal has reached mission nonlinear working range, and channel will generate various nonlinearity products, thus shadowRing the parsing of small signal.

In a specific embodiment of the invention, system block diagram of the invention and connection relationship are as shown in Fig. 2, receiver is penetratedFrequency input first passes around preselection filter module, the signal except the machine is filtered out, subsequently into a power splitter, later, systemIt is divided into 3 channels, is to detect receiving channel module, receiver channel module and the counteracting channel mould for generating offseting signal respectivelyBlock.The output all the way of power splitter enters detection receiving channel module, which is mainly the strong signal extracted in channel, withThe process flow of receiver channel module is similar, is to be transformed into intermediate-freuqncy signal by frequency mixer Mixer first, by bandpass filteringEnter A-D converter ADC after device BPF, be transformed into i/q signal by digital down converter DDC, is controlled by the first bandwidth singleFirst BWC selects the bandwidth and frequency of quasi- offseting signal, and bandwidth can pass through control.
Pre Filter is preselection filter module in attached drawing, and Detect Channel is detection receiving channel module,Receive Channel is receiver channel module, and Cancel Channel is to offset channel module.
The I/Q output signal of detection receiving channel module enters counteracting channel module, is transformed by Digital Up Convert DUCDigital intermediate frequency, then pass through digital delaying circuit DDL, the digital delaying circuit can finely regulating signal phase, be sent to countMode converter DAC, is transformed into analog signal, and low-pass filtered device generates and original signal size phase after filtering out high frequency clock signalDeng, the analog intermediate frequency signal of opposite in phase, transformed on radio frequency band by upper frequency mixer Mixer3, it is logical into receiverRoad sums with original reception signal, enters back into frequency mixer.At this point, the signal into frequency mixer will contain only small signal, and it is bigSignal has been offset because of opposite in phase.Reduce the linearity of frequency mixer below and amplifier circuit.In receiver channelDelay circuit DL be delayed to analog signal, with guarantee offseting signal generate time it is consistent with this channel.System designIn, the sample rate of ADC is improved as far as possible, otherwise computing relay is excessive, can make thrashing.
Receiving channel module and receiver channel module are detected in attached drawing 2, shares a local oscillation signal, and this design can be withRealize that the interference in IF passband bandwidth is eliminated, as shown in figure 3, it gives the realizations of two-way Digital Down Convert DDC circuitMethod.Its framework is almost the same, is mainly made of multiplier, FIR filter, half-band filter HB, digital oscillator NCO,There are two differences for the two, and the frequency of two digital oscillators is different, as can be seen that two frequency phase-difference Δ f, this Δ f in figureIt is exactly the difference on the frequency of strong and weak signals, feed back input after which is obtained by systematic survey.In addition sense channel needs a bandwidthControl circuit, the purpose is to control the bandwidth of offseting signal, by one group of filtering, therefore reconstitutable digital filter is constituted.
The system that attached drawing 2 and attached drawing 3 are constituted, can offset the signal in midband, at this time the frequency of high low signalRate interval is closer, is difficult to separate with filter in radio-frequency head.
The embodiment of the present invention one can also be used for the wider occasion of some broadband receivers and signal frequency interval, such as attached drawingShown in 4.Compared with attached drawing 2, sense channel has used independent local oscillator unit, rather than shares local oscillator with receiver channel, thisA system it is more adaptable, can not only offset the signal of proximal end, and the farther signal of frequency can be offset.Only hardwareSystem can improve, and structure can be complicated.At this point, the frequency difference of receiver channel and interference signal is arrived in setting by two local oscillator frequency differencesOn.
