Abstract

The invention discloses a device and a method for expanding a dynamic range of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The device comprises an AGC (automatic gain control) power splitting module, an ADC1, a digital phase-shift gain module, an analog time delay 1, a high-dynamic digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) module, an adder, a filter amplifier module, an analog time delay 2, an ADC2, a digital delay, a coupler, a parameter research / estimation module and a control interface. By means of nonlinear devices, nonlinear component of final output signals is reduced while risk in signal processing is lowered. Wide dynamic range is achieved through the low-performance ADCs and the low-cost DAC. Feedback forecasting circuits are omitted, thus the robustness is improved while signal bandwidth limitation is eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device and method for converting an analog signal to a digital signal in the field of digital communication, in particular to a device and method for improving the dynamic range of an analog-to-digital converter. Background technique [0002] In digital communication, the analog-to-digital converter is responsible for the mapping from the analog domain to the digital domain, and the dynamic range of the analog-to-digital converter directly limits the highest signal-to-noise ratio that can be obtained in the digital domain. Therefore, how to improve the dynamic range of the analog-to-digital converter has become a key point in digital communication. [0003] There are three main existing methods aimed at improving the dynamic range of ADCs: [0004] Pre-logarithmic amplifier: The analog signal is passed through a logarithmic amplifier before the ADC, and the high-level signal is compressed to within the maximum range ...
