Abstract:

To address the issue of communication quality degradation caused by phase misalignment in multi-channel signals within complex electromagnetic environments, a real-time calibration method for Ku-band ultra-narrowband signals based on radio frequency system-on-chip is proposed. The system adopts a configurable radio frequency front-end and digital compensation collaborative architecture, combined with time-frequency domain hybrid correction algorithm, and adopts a multi-channel parallel processing hardware structure to achieve synchronous processing and phase compensation of multi-channel signals, breaking through the accuracy and real-time limitations of traditional phase detection methods in processing narrowband signals. The experimental results show that the system can effectively improve phase consistency in strong interference environments. After calibration, the phase error is controlled at ±0.02°, which is 80% higher than the minimum error of ±0.1° in the vector network analyzer calibration scheme. The signal quality after calibration meets the requirements of tactical systems.
