1) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a clock phase detecting circuit and a clock regenerating circuit each arranged in the receiving unit in multiplex radio equipment.
Generally, the clock regenerating circuit which is used in the receiving unit of multiplex radio equipment is called a BTR (Bit Timing Recovery) circuit. The clock regenerating circuit usually regenerates a clock component based on a signal obtained by demodulating a multilevel orthogonal modulation signal obtained through PSK (Pulse Shift Keying) or QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) and then supplies it as an operation timing signal for an identifier (e.g. an A/D converter) that mainly identifies received data (signal).
The clock which is regenerated in the clock regenerating circuit must be agreed in phase with a demodulated signal level identifying timing (when the so-called eye-pattern is most opened). However, a change in trunk state due to temperature changes may cause a deviation in phase of a clock pulse.
Hence both a clock phase detecting circuit that can detect a phase deviation with high accuracy and a clock regenerating circuit that adjusts accurately a deviation in phase of the clock detected by the clock phase detecting circuit and then supplies signal identification clocks with high accuracy have been requested.
2) Description of the Related Art
The orthogonal detecting unit 71 detects a signal (IF (intermediate frequency) signal) obtained by demodulating a multilevel orthogonal modulation signal due to PSK or QAM and then produces two kinds of baseband signals (an Ich signal and a Qch signal) with a different angle of 90° in phase from each other. As shown in
In the detecting unit 71, the hybrid 711 splits the IF signal input into two components and then sends respectively to the phase detectors 713 and 714. At this time, the local oscillating unit 717 supplies a carrier regenerating signal synchronized in phase with a carrier wave to the hybrid 712. The hybrid 712 splits the carrier regenerating signal into two signal waves with phases different from each other by 90°: one being output to the phase detector 713 and the other being output to the phase detector 714.
As a result, the phase detectors 713 and 714 receive base band signals (an Ich signal and a Qch signal) having phases different from each other by 90°. The A/D converter (identifying unit) 72 receives the Ich signal via the roll-off filter 715 to perform an A/C conversion (signal identification). The A/D converter (identifying unit) 73 receives the Qch signal via the roll-off filter 716 to perform an A/D conversion (signal identification). Thus digital demodulated signals with phases different from each other by 90° are obtained.
The A/D converter 72 converts the Ich signal from the orthogonal detecting unit 71 to a digital demodulated signal by A/D converting at a predetermined signal level. The A/D converter 73 converts the Qch signal from the orthogonal detecting unit 71 to a digital demodulated signal by A/D converting at a predetermined signal level. The transversal equalizer 74 equalizes each the digital demodulated signals from the A/D converters 72 and 73.
The clock regenerating circuit 75 regenerates A/D conversion clocks, of which the timing at which the 14
where “g” is the inclination of the Ich signal and “e” is a signal error of the Ich signal. Hence the multiplier 321 in the clock phase calculating unit 32 detects an A/D conversion clock phase shift “Δt” by multiplying the inclination “g” of the Ich signal by the signal error “e” of the Ich signal. Then the phase shift “Δt” can be supplied to the clock regenerating circuit 35 and then regenerated as an A/D conversion clock phase adjustment and control signal in the clock regenerating unit 29.
In the clock regenerating circuit 35, the IF signal to be detected by the orthogonal detecting unit 22 is processed desirably through the square detecting unit 291, the filter 292, and the PLL circuit 293 so that an A/D conversion timing signal is created to the A/D converters 23 and 24. The D/A converter 33 converts the phase shift “Δt” of an A/D conversion clock as described above from a digital signal to an analog signal and then the integrator 27 averages the analog signal. The phase shifter 28 receives the output of the integrator 27 as a phase adjustment and control signal to adjust the phase shift of the A/D conversion clock, thus sending it to the A/D converters 23 and 24.
Therefore, the A/D conversion clock to the A/D converters 23 and 24 to be regenerated in the clock regenerating circuit 35 can be always agreed to the optimum phase at which the opening portion of the eye pattern is opened maximumly. As a result, each of the A/D converters 23 and 24 can improve greatly the accuracy of the A/D conversion process.
As described above, the error detecting unit 31 detects the input signal to output signal error “e” of the transversal equalizer 25 while the inclination judging unit (signal inclination detecting unit) 30 detects the inclination “g” of the demodulated signal. Then the multiplier 321 in the clock phase calculating unit 32 multiplies the output of the error detecting unit 31 by the output of the inclination judging unit 30. Thus the phase shift (phase component) “Δt” of an A/D conversion clock can be obtained, whereby the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock can be surely detected.
Furthermore, the A/D conversion clock for the A/D converters (identifying units) 23 and 24 is obtained by means of the phase component detecting unit 26, the integrator 27, the phase shifter 28, and the clock regenerating unit 29 each used in common to the A/D converters (identifying units) 23 and 24. Hence in the receiving unit in the multiplex radio equipment wherein two kinds of orthogonal signals (an Ich signal and a Qch signal) are obtained by demodulating a multilevel orthogonal modulation signal such as 16 QAM, the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock can be detected and adjusted by a very-simplified configuration.
Since the integrator 27 can average the output (phase adjustment and control signal) of the phase component detecting unit 26, the accuracy of the phase adjustment and control signal to the phase shifter 28 can be increased, whereby the phase shifter 28 can perform accurately the phase adjusting process.
If the inclination “g” obtained by the inclination judging unit 30 and the signal error “e” obtained by the error detecting unit 31 are simply expressed only by polarity, the clock phase calculating unit 32 (refer to
In the clock regenerating circuit 35, the phase component detecting unit 26 arranged on the Ich channel side detects the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock from the Ich signal. However, the phase component detecting unit 26 may be arranged on the Qch channel side to detect the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock based on the Qch signal. In the embodiments to be described later, the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock can be detected using either the Ich signal or Qch signal.
Each of the phase component detecting units 26A and 26B shown in
In the clock regenerating circuit 35A having the above-mentioned configuration, like the configuration shown in
In other words, where the phase of an A/D conversion clock shifts from the position of a signal point on the eye pattern in the above-mentioned process, bits lower than the signal bit (D1, D2) of a base band signal which is obtained by demodulating a multilevel orthogonal modulated signal called 16 QAM error bits (D3, D4, . . . ) shown in
Thereafter the information (Δt) regarding the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock detected above is averaged by the integrator 27. Then the averaged information is supplied as a phase adjustment and control signal to the phase shifter 28 to adjust the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock regenerated by the clock regenerating unit 29.
Hence since the phase shifter 28 can adjust automatically and with higher accuracy the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock to the A/D converters 23 and 24, the accuracy of an A/D conversion process by the A/D converters 23 and 24 can be greatly improved.
The equalizer (transversal equalizer) 25 described in the first and second embodiments is arranged on the rear stage of each of the A/D converters 23 and 24, as shown in FIG. 44.
In the clock regenerating circuit 68 in this embodiment, if the phase differential information of the phase differential detecting unit 62 and the signal error information of the error differential detecting unit 63 are expressed only by polarities as described in the first embodiment, the clock phase calculating unit 64, as shown in
In the clock regenerating circuit 68A shown in
The integrator 27A receives and averages information regarding the clock phase shift detected by the phase component detecting unit 61A. The integrator 27B receives and averages information regarding the clock phase shift detected by the phase component detecting unit 61B. Then each of the phase shifters 28A and 28B receives the averaged result as a phase adjustment and control signal to adjust the phase shift of a signal identification clock which is regenerated from the IF signal to be detected by the orthogonal detecting unit 22 by the clock regenerating unit 29 used in common to the identifying units 23 and 24.
Thus, the phase shifter 28A can adjust the clock phase shift to the identifying unit 23 and the phase shifter 28B can adjust the clock phase shift to the identifying unit 24. Hence the accuracy of the signal identifying process in the identifying units 23 and 24 can be greatly improved.
Like the first embodiment described with
In this case, the PN pattern generating circuit 47 is formed of four flip-flop (FF) circuits 471 to 474 and an EX-OR gate 475. The PN pattern generating circuit 47 generates a test random pulse to set the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock by the phase component detecting unit 61 (or 61A, 61B) to the center value of a detection result. The SEL 46 outputs selectively the output of the phase component detecting unit 61 (or 61A, 61B) and the output of the PN pattern generating circuit 47 in response to a test/normal switching signal. In
When the clock regenerating circuit 68 with the above-mentioned structure as shown in
Hence the phase shifter 28 can adjust and test very easily the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock sent to the A/D converters 23 and 24.
(e) Fourth Embodiment of the Present Invention:
The orthogonal detecting unit 22, the identifying units 23 and 24, the integrator 27′ and the oscillating unit 28′ correspond to elements with the same numerals described in the second embodiment, respectively. The orthogonal detecting unit 22 outputs two kinds of signals including an Ich signal and a Qch signal which are different in phase (perpendicular to each other) by 90° from each other by detecting an IF band signal. As shown in
The integrator (loop filter unit) 27′ which integrates the output of the phase component detecting unit 61 (to be described later) is formed of a resistor (R) 271 and a capacitor (C) 272, as shown in FIG. 52. The resistor 271 and the capacitor 272 integrate the phase shift (phase component) information of an A/D conversion clock detected by the phase component detecting unit 61.
The oscillating unit (oscillating unit) 28′ receives the output of the integrator 27′ as a control input which adjusts the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock and then outputs a signal identification clock (A/D conversion clock) to the identifying units (A/D converters) 23 and 24.
The phase component detecting unit (clock phase detecting circuit (unit)) 61 detects the phase shift (phase component) of an A/D conversion clock in response to the phase difference information of an A/D conversion clock supplied to the A/D converters 23 and 24 and signal error differential information obtained by the A/D converter 23 and then supplies it to the integrator 27′ being a constituent element of the clock regenerating circuit 68′. The phase component detecting unit 61 is formed of a phase differential detecting unit 62, an error differential detecting unit 63, a clock phase calculating unit 64, flip-flop (FF) circuits 65 and 66.
The phase differential detecting unit 62 detects the phase difference information of an A/D conversion clock supplied to the A/D converters 23 and 24. The error differential detecting unit 63 detects the signal error differential information of an Ich signal obtained by the identifying unit 23. Each of the phase differential detecting unit 62 and the error differential detecting unit 63 is formed as a subtracter in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 52. Each of the FF circuits 65 and 65′ delay its input signal by a predetermined amount and each of the FF circuits 66 and 66′ delay its input signal by a predetermined shift.
The clock phase calculating unit 64 calculates the output of the phase differential detecting unit 62 and the output of the error differential detecting unit 63 to detect the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock. In concrete, the clock phase calculating unit 64, which is formed of a divider (dividing unit) 641, subjects the output of the phase differential detecting unit 62 and the output of the error differential detecting unit 63 to a division process.
Referring to
In the clock regenerating circuit 68′ with the above-mentioned configuration, the converting circuit 67 converts the phase error of an A/D conversion clock to be supplied to the A/D converters 23 and 24 into a predetermined signal and then inputs the converted signal to the FF circuit 65′ in the phase component detecting unit 61. At the same time, the FF circuit 66′ receives the signal error (signal error information) of an Ich signal A/D converted by the A/D converter 23.
The FF circuits 65 and 65′ delays the converted signal by a predetermined shift to input to the subtracter 62. The FF circuits 66 and 66′ delays the signal error by a predetermined amount to input to the subtracter 63. Each of the subtracters 62 and 63 subjects its input to a subtraction process. The subtracter 62 obtains the phase difference information of an A/D conversion clock while the subtracter 63 obtains the signal error differential information of an Ich signal.
The divider 641 (clock phase calculating unit 64) 641 subjects the phase difference information and signal error differential information to an division process. As a result, the phase shift information of an A/D conversion clock can be obtained.
Thereafter, the phase shift information of the above-detected A/D conversion clock is not converted from the digital signal form to an analog signal form as described in the third embodiment, but integrated by the integrator 27′ as it is in a digital signal form. The result is amplified by the amplifier 296 to a predetermined signal level. Then the oscillating unit 28′ receives the amplified signal as a control signal to adjust the phase shift on an A/D conversion clock.
In other words, like the third embodiment, the clock regenerating circuit 68′ does not convert the phase shift information of an A/D conversion clock to the A/D converters 23 and 24 to be detected by the phase component detecting unit 61 from a digital signal to an analog signal to adjust the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock using the analog signal. Instead, the clock regenerating circuit 68′ outputs the phase shift information of an A/D conversion clock in a digital signal form as a control input to the oscillating unit 28′ and then adjusts the a/D conversion clock using the digital signal.
Consequently, even if the clock regenerating unit 29 and the phase shifter 28 are not arranged like the third embodiment, the very-simplified configuration can adjust automatically the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock to the A/D converters 23 and 24. Thus the A/D converters 23 and 24 can greatly improve the accuracy of an A/D conversion process.
In the clock phase calculating unit 64 in the phase component detecting unit 61 in this embodiment, if the phase differential information from the phase differential detecting unit 62 and the signal error information from the error differential detecting unit 63 are simply expressed with polarities, an EX-OR gate (exclusive OR element) 642, as shown in
The clock regenerating circuit 68′, shown in
Next,
In this case, the phase component detecting unit 61A is arranged corresponding to the A/D converter 23 and the phase component detecting unit 61B is arranged corresponding to the A/D converter 24. The oscillating unit 28′ and the integrator 27′ are used in common to the identifying units 23 and 24. The composing unit 51A is arranged to compose the output of the phase component detecting unit 61A with the output of the phase component detecting unit 61B. The output of the composing unit 51A is input to the integrator 27′.
In the clock regenerating circuits 68A′, the phase component detecting unit 61 corresponding to the A/D converter 23 detects the phase shift information of a signal identification clock for the A/D converter 23 and the phase component detecting unit 61 corresponding to the A/D converter 24 detects the phase shift information of a signal identification clock for the A/D converter 24. The multiplier 511 in the composing unit 51A multiplies the output from the phase component detecting unit 61A by the output of the phase component detecting unit 61B and then supplies the result as an input to the integrator 27′ and the oscillating unit 28′ used in common to the identifying units 61A and 61B.
Hence the phase shift of a signal identification clock supplied from the oscillating unit 28′ to the identifying units 23 and 24 can be adjusted independently and with higher accuracy to the identifying units 23 and 24. The composing unit 51A can be constituted in an analog circuit form or a digital circuit form. The detail configuration of each element is similar to that described with
In the clock regenerating circuit 68B′, like the third embodiment, the phase component detecting unit 61A detects information regarding the phase shift of a signal identification clock to the identifying unit 23 and the integrator 27A′ integrates the detected information. On the other hand, the phase component detecting unit 61B detects information regarding the phase shift of a signal identification clock to the identifying unit 24 and the integrator 27B′ integrates the detected information. Then the result is supplied as a control input to the phase shifter 28 or the oscillating unit 28B′.
The oscillating unit 28B′ adjusts automatically its oscillation frequency and the clock phase shift, based on information regarding the phase shift of a signal identification clock and supplies the result to the identifying unit 24. The phase shifter 28 adjusts the phase of a piece of the phase shift information supplied to the oscillating unit 28B′ and then supplies the result to the identifying unit 23.
As described above, according to the clock regenerating circuit 68A′, the phase component detecting unit 61A arranged corresponding to the identifying unit 23 detects the phase shift of a signal identification clock to the identifying unit 23 to supply the result as a control signal for the oscillator 28B′ or the phase shifter 28 to the oscillating unit 28B′ via the integrator 27A′ while the phase component detecting unit 61B arranged corresponding to the identifying unit 24 detects the phase shift of a signal identification clock to the identifying unit 24 to supply the result as a control signal for oscillator 28B′ or the phase shifter 28 to the oscillating unit 28B′ via the integrator 27B′. Hence the accuracy of the signal identifying process in the identifying units 23 and 24 can be further improved.
Another phase component detecting unit (second clock phase detecting unit) 52′ is identical to another phase component detecting unit 52 shown in
In such a manner, in the clock regenerating circuit 68C′, another phase component detecting unit 52 detects information regarding the phase shift of a signal information clock to the identifying units 23 and 24 in a method different from the phase component detecting unit 61. Then the multiplier 511 in the composing unit 51B multiplies (composes) the information regarding the signal identification clock by the information regarding the phase shift of a signal identification clock, based on the phase difference information and the signal error differential information detected by the phase component detecting unit 26 described in the third embodiment, and then supply the result to the integrator 27′.
The information regarding the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock (phase component information) can be output with higher accuracy to the oscillating unit 28′ which supplies signal identification clocks to the identifying units 23 and 24 via the integrator 27′. Hence the phase shift of a signal identification clock sent to the identifying units 23 and 24 can be adjusted automatically and with high accuracy so that the identifying units 23 and 24 can greatly improve the accuracy in the signal identifying (A/D conversion) process.
The selecting unit 53′ selectively outputs the output of the phase component detecting unit 61 and the output of another phase component detecting unit 52′ to the integrator 27′ according to the control signal (e.g. a frame synchronization signal) from the signal quality judging unit 54′.
In the clock regenerating circuit 68D′ with the above-mentioned configuration, another phase component detecting unit 52′ detects the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock to the A/D converters 23 and 24 in a method different from that of the phase component detecting unit 61. The selecting unit 53′ selectively inputs the information regarding the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock detected by another phase component detecting unit 52′ and the information regarding the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock detected by the phase component detecting unit 61 described in the first embodiment to the integrator 27′ according to the control signal from the signal quality judging unit 54′.
In this case, the information regarding the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock (phase component information) can be supplied with higher accuracy to the oscillating unit 28′ which supplies signal identification clocks to the identifying units 23 and 24 via the integrator 27′, the accuracy of the signal identification process in the identifying units 23 and 24 can be greatly improved by adjusting automatically and accurately the phase shift of a signal identification clock.
In brief, the clock regenerating circuit 68E′ is obtained by converting the clock regenerating circuit 68 in an analog circuit form described with
Thus the clock regenerating circuit 68E′ supplies selectively the test signal from the PN pattern generating circuit 47′ and the output from the phase component detecting unit 61 to the integrator (loop filter unit) 27′, according to a test (adjustment) / normal switching signal.
Therefore, the phase shift of an A/D conversion clock (signal identification clock) to the A/D converters (identifying units) 23 and 24 can be tested and adjusted very easily.
