Abstract

In this article, a sideband switchable RF/analog processing single sideband (SSB) mixer is proposed to synchronize the phase in open-loop distributed array system. The proposed SSB mixer is composed of single balanced mixer, Wilkinson power divider, switches, transmission line delays, RF Hilbert transformer, and T-junction combiner. The design theory is developed for phase synchronization in distributed array based on the sequential switched sideband signal, and detail design approach is developed for the proposed RF/analog processing switchable SSB mixer. By switching the transmission line delays, different sidebands are controlled in the proposed SSB mixer. To verify the design concept, a prototype SSB mixer is designed and validated in simulation and experiment, and the results align well with design theory. Different from other SSB mixer, this is first time a RF/analog processing switchable band SSB mixer is proposed to show great potential for exploring novel wireless communication technique.

用于分布式阵列相位同步的可切换频带射频/模拟处理单边带混频器

本文提出了一种边带可切换射频/模拟处理单边带混频器，用于开环分布式阵列系统的相位同步。提出的SSB混频器由单平衡混频器、威尔金森功率分配器、开关、传输线延迟、RF希尔伯特变压器和t型结组合器组成。提出了基于时序开关边带信号的分布式阵列相位同步设计理论，并给出了射频/模拟处理可切换SSB混频器的详细设计方法。通过切换传输线延迟，可以控制SSB混频器的不同侧带。为了验证设计理念，设计了原型混合器，并进行了仿真和实验验证，结果与设计理论吻合较好。与其他SSB混频器不同，这是第一次提出射频/模拟处理可切换频段SSB混频器，显示出探索新型无线通信技术的巨大潜力。

期刊介绍： The IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques focuses on that part of engineering and theory associated with microwave/millimeter-wave components, devices, circuits, and systems involving the generation, modulation, demodulation, control, transmission, and detection of microwave signals. This includes scientific, technical, and industrial, activities. Microwave theory and techniques relates to electromagnetic waves usually in the frequency region between a few MHz and a THz; other spectral regions and wave types are included within the scope of the Society whenever basic microwave theory and techniques can yield useful results. Generally, this occurs in the theory of wave propagation in structures with dimensions comparable to a wavelength, and in the related techniques for analysis and design.
