下面对本实施例提供的天线阵子的测试方法进行详细的阐述。The test method of the antenna element provided by this embodiment will be described in detail below.
执行步骤S1:天线阵子从初始角度转动一设定值。Step S1 is executed: the antenna element is rotated by a set value from the initial angle.
具体的,天线阵子是天线上的元器件,具有导向和放大电磁波的作用,在本实施例中,天线阵子可包括非金属阵子、贴片阵子和半波阵子,其中为5G网络就采用的非金属天线阵子。本实施例中,在微波暗室环境中执行天线阵子的测试方法,微波暗室环境可以屏蔽外界干扰,能够更准确得测得天线阵子的参数值。Specifically, the antenna element is a component on the antenna, which has the function of guiding and amplifying electromagnetic waves. In this embodiment, the antenna element can include a non-metal element, a patch element and a half-wave element. Among them, the non-metal element used in the 5G network Metal antenna elements. In this embodiment, the test method of the antenna element is implemented in a microwave anechoic room environment, which can shield external interference, and can measure the parameter values of the antenna element more accurately.
调整天线阵子的初始角度,使天线阵子从初始角度转动一设定值,设定值不作具体限制,可按照实际情况设定角度,如5°、10°、15°等。Adjust the initial angle of the antenna element to rotate the antenna element by a set value from the initial angle. There is no specific limit to the set value, and the angle can be set according to the actual situation, such as 5°, 10°, 15°, etc.
执行步骤S2:信号发生器输出设定功率值的第一电信号给天线阵子,天线阵子将第一电信号转换成电磁信号传输出去。Step S2 is executed: the signal generator outputs the first electric signal with a set power value to the antenna element, and the antenna element converts the first electric signal into an electromagnetic signal and transmits it.
具体的,信号发生器是一种能提供各种频率、波形和输出电平电信号的设备,可以用作测试的信号源或激励源。信号发生器输出设定功率值的第一电信号给天线阵子,天线阵子能够将电场转换为磁场从而形成为电磁波,即天线阵子将第一电信号转换成电磁信号传输出去。Specifically, a signal generator is a device that can provide electrical signals of various frequencies, waveforms and output levels, and can be used as a signal source or an excitation source for testing. The signal generator outputs the first electrical signal with a set power value to the antenna element, and the antenna element can convert the electric field into a magnetic field to form an electromagnetic wave, that is, the antenna element converts the first electrical signal into an electromagnetic signal and transmits it.
执行步骤S3:接收天线接收电磁信号且将电磁信号转换成第二电信号给频谱分析仪,频谱分析仪获取第二电信号的功率值。Step S3 is executed: the receiving antenna receives the electromagnetic signal and converts the electromagnetic signal into a second electrical signal to the spectrum analyzer, and the spectrum analyzer acquires the power value of the second electrical signal.
具体的,接收天线接收到天线阵子传输过来的电磁信号,接收天线能够将磁场转换为电场,即将天线阵子传输过来的电磁信号转换为第二电信号。将第二电信号传输给频谱分析仪,频谱分析仪是研究电信号频谱结构的仪器,能分析1赫以下的甚低频到亚毫米波段的全部无线电频段的电信号,频谱分析仪内部若采用数字电路和微处理器,具有存储和运算功能;配置标准接口,能够构成自动测试系统。频谱分析仪接收第二电信号,并获取第二电信号的功率值,还可以获取第二电信号的电平值。Specifically, the receiving antenna receives the electromagnetic signal transmitted by the antenna element, and the receiving antenna can convert the magnetic field into an electric field, that is, convert the electromagnetic signal transmitted by the antenna element into a second electrical signal. The second electrical signal is transmitted to the spectrum analyzer. The spectrum analyzer is an instrument for studying the spectrum structure of the electrical signal. It can analyze the electrical signals of all radio frequency bands from the very low frequency below 1 Hz to the submillimeter wave band. If the spectrum analyzer uses digital The circuit and microprocessor have storage and calculation functions; equipped with standard interfaces, they can form an automatic test system. The spectrum analyzer receives the second electrical signal, and acquires the power value of the second electrical signal, and may also acquire the level value of the second electrical signal.
步骤S4:判断第二电信号的功率值是否在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内,若是,则保存第二电信号的功率值并返回步骤S1,若否,调整设定功率值并返回步骤S2。Step S4: Determine whether the power value of the second electrical signal is within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer, if yes, save the power value of the second electrical signal and return to step S1, if not, adjust the set power value and return to step S2 .
具体的,获得第二电信号的功率值和电平值之后,通过第二电信号的功率值和电平值能够得到天线阵子的驻波比和增益。通过第二电信号的功率值与设定功率值的比值得到天线阵子的增益,通过第二电信号的电平值的高低电平值得到天线阵子的驻波比,本实施例中主要针对天线阵子的增益进行测试。Specifically, after the power value and level value of the second electrical signal are obtained, the standing wave ratio and gain of the antenna element can be obtained through the power value and level value of the second electrical signal. The gain of the antenna element is obtained by the ratio of the power value of the second electric signal to the set power value, and the standing wave ratio of the antenna element is obtained by the level value of the second electric signal. Gain for a while to test.
频谱分析仪具有固定的功率动态范围,即频谱分析仪的量程,超过量程则不能进行测试,当第二电信号的功率值超过频谱分析仪的功率动态范围,频谱分析仪则不能测试出第二电信号的功率值,同样不能计算得到天线阵子的增益。而由于需要对天线阵子进行多角度测试获得不同角度下天线阵子的增益,当天线阵子的角度发生改变,接收天线接收到的电磁信号转换后的第二电信号的功率值会变化;若信号发生器输出的功率值固定,当天线阵子转动到某个角度,接收天线转换后的第二电信号的功率值会变得很小或很大,导致接收天线转换后的第二电信号的功率值超出频谱分析仪的功率动态范围,则频谱分析仪无法测得接收天线转换后的第二电信号的功率值,无法对天线阵子进行多角度测试获得不同角度下天线阵子的增益。The spectrum analyzer has a fixed power dynamic range, which is the range of the spectrum analyzer. If the range exceeds the range, the test cannot be performed. When the power value of the second electrical signal exceeds the power dynamic range of the spectrum analyzer, the spectrum analyzer cannot test the second signal. The power value of the electrical signal also cannot calculate the gain of the antenna element. However, due to the need to perform multi-angle tests on the antenna element to obtain the gain of the antenna element at different angles, when the angle of the antenna element changes, the power value of the second electrical signal after the conversion of the electromagnetic signal received by the receiving antenna will change; The output power value of the transmitter is fixed. When the antenna element rotates to a certain angle, the power value of the second electrical signal converted by the receiving antenna will become very small or large, resulting in the power value of the second electrical signal converted by the receiving antenna. If the power dynamic range of the spectrum analyzer is exceeded, the spectrum analyzer cannot measure the power value of the second electrical signal converted by the receiving antenna, and cannot conduct multi-angle tests on the antenna element to obtain the gain of the antenna element at different angles.
因此,通过在频谱分析仪中设定功率阈值范围,频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围在频谱分析仪的功率动态范围内。功率阈值范围包括最大功率阈值和最小功率阈值,最大功率阈值需小于功率动态范围的最大测量功率值,最小功率阈值需大于功率动态范围的最小测量功率值,最大功率阈值和最小功率阈值根据实际情况设定,比如天线阵子转动一设定角度后,设定的最大功率阈值与最大测量功率值的差值至少大于频谱分析仪在相邻两次天线阵子转动一设定角度后测得的第二电信号的功率值的差值,防止下一次天线阵子转动一设定角度后,超出频谱分析仪的功率动态范围而不能被测量到。Therefore, by setting the power threshold range in the spectrum analyzer, the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer is within the power dynamic range of the spectrum analyzer. The power threshold range includes the maximum power threshold and the minimum power threshold. The maximum power threshold must be smaller than the maximum measured power value of the power dynamic range, and the minimum power threshold must be greater than the minimum measured power value of the power dynamic range. The maximum power threshold and minimum power threshold are based on the actual situation Setting, for example, after the antenna element rotates a set angle, the difference between the set maximum power threshold and the maximum measured power value is at least greater than the second value measured by the spectrum analyzer after two adjacent antenna element rotations by a set angle. The difference in the power value of the electrical signal prevents the next time the antenna element rotates a set angle, which exceeds the power dynamic range of the spectrum analyzer and cannot be measured.
判断第二电信号的功率值是否在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内,当第二电信号的功率值在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内时,保存第二电信号的功率值并返回步骤S1,调整天线阵子的角度,进行下一个角度的测试。当第二电信号的功率值不在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内时,调整设定功率值并返回步骤S2,再进行测试形成闭环控制。在本实施例中,天线阵子每次从初始角度转动一设定值,直至天线阵子完成360°转动,可为天线阵子一个周期的测试,也可进行720°转动测试等。在本实施例中,保存第二电信号的功率值可以保存在计算机可读存储介质中或其它电子设备中,然后求得信号发生器输出的设定功率值与保存的第二电信号的功率值的比值得到天线阵子的增益,可通过计算机计算获得天线阵子的增益。Determine whether the power value of the second electrical signal is within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer, and when the power value of the second electrical signal is within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer, save the power value of the second electrical signal and return to step S1 , adjust the angle of the antenna element, and proceed to the next angle test. When the power value of the second electrical signal is not within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer, adjust the set power value and return to step S2, and then conduct a test to form a closed-loop control. In this embodiment, the antenna element rotates by a set value from the initial angle each time until the antenna element completes a 360° rotation, which can be a cycle test of the antenna element, or a 720° rotation test, etc. In this embodiment, the stored power value of the second electrical signal can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium or other electronic devices, and then the set power value output by the signal generator and the stored power of the second electrical signal can be obtained. The ratio of the values is the gain of the antenna element, which can be calculated by computer to obtain the gain of the antenna element.
判断第二电信号的功率值是否在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内,具体是比较第二电信号的功率值与最大功率阈值和最小功率阈值的大小,当第二电信号的功率值小于等于最小功率阈值时,增加设定功率值;当第二电信号的功率值大于等于最大功率阈值时,减小设定功率值。闭环控制使无论天线阵子转动到任一角度,只要信号发生器的输出功率动态随之改变,都能使频谱分析仪能够准确测试到第二信号的功率值,不会超出频谱分析仪的功率动态范围,就能够实现对天线阵子进行多角度高动态测试。在本实施例中,信号发生器增加功率或信号发生器减小功率可以按照设定的步长逐步增大或逐步减小,具体设定值不作限制,示实际情况而定。Judging whether the power value of the second electrical signal is within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer, specifically comparing the power value of the second electrical signal with the maximum power threshold and the minimum power threshold, when the power value of the second electrical signal is less than or equal to When the minimum power threshold is reached, the set power value is increased; when the power value of the second electrical signal is greater than or equal to the maximum power threshold, the set power value is decreased. Closed-loop control makes it possible for the spectrum analyzer to accurately test the power value of the second signal as long as the output power of the signal generator changes accordingly no matter the antenna element rotates to any angle, and will not exceed the power dynamics of the spectrum analyzer range, it is possible to perform multi-angle high dynamic testing on antenna elements. In this embodiment, the increase in power of the signal generator or the decrease in power of the signal generator can be gradually increased or decreased according to the set step size, and the specific set value is not limited and depends on the actual situation.
当天线阵子处于初始角度时,信号发生器输出初始功率值的电信号给天线阵子,天线阵子将初始功率值的电信号转换成电磁信号传输出去,经过接收天线的转换,将电磁信号转换为电信号,频谱分析仪测得此电信号的功率值,保存频谱分析仪测得的功率值,通过初始功率值和频谱分析仪测得的功率值得到天线阵子初始角度的增益;当在初始角度时,频谱分析仪测得的功率值是在频谱分析仪的功率阈值范围内。When the antenna element is at the initial angle, the signal generator outputs an electrical signal of the initial power value to the antenna element, and the antenna element converts the electrical signal of the initial power value into an electromagnetic signal and transmits it. After conversion by the receiving antenna, the electromagnetic signal is converted into an electrical signal. signal, the spectrum analyzer measures the power value of the electrical signal, saves the power value measured by the spectrum analyzer, and obtains the gain of the initial angle of the antenna element through the initial power value and the power value measured by the spectrum analyzer; when at the initial angle , the power value measured by the spectrum analyzer is within the power threshold range of the spectrum analyzer.
