Problems solved by technology

[0013] However, because the impedance of the output end of the tuner changes with the matching antenna and frequency, different frequency points and different antennas have different matching network parameters corresponding to the tuner, so it cannot be directly connected to a network analyzer whose input and output port impedances are both 50Ω. Measure its S parameters, so there is no effective method to measure the insertion loss of the antenna tuner at home and abroad, and there is also a lack of relevant indicators to measure the transmission efficiency of the shortwave antenna tuner

Description

[0001] 1. Technical field [0002] The invention belongs to the technical field of short-wave communication equipment and related electronic circuits, in particular to a test method and design for the insertion loss of a short-wave antenna tuner. [0003] 2. Background technology [0004] The short-wave communication frequency band is wide (1.6MHz-30MHz), and the input impedance of the narrowband antenna changes with the frequency, which is a complex impedance, while the output impedance of the general transmitter is 50Ω, so the antenna tuner (hereinafter referred to as the antenna tuner) is needed to realize the transmission. The impedance matching between the transmitter and the antenna maximizes the power of the transmitter to the antenna. [0005] A vector network analysis instrument is a test device for electromagnetic wave energy. It can not only measure the magnitude of various parameters of a single-port network or two-port network, but also measure the phase. The vect...
