Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the measurement methods and devices of nonlinear vector network analyzers usually use 10MHz "frequency locking" to realize the phase synchronization of the test excitation signal and the phase reference signal, and the "signal Coherent", when the measured frequency band is increased to millimeter waves above 24-70 GHz, the phase noise is large, the measurement accuracy is low, and it cannot meet the high-accuracy measurement requirements

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for measuring nonlinear vector network analyzer with accurate phase synchronization. The invention relates to the technical field of radio frequency microwave signal measurement, and mainly aims to improve the phase stability measured by a nonlinear vector network analyzer by realizing coherence of a test signal and a phase reference signal so as to meet the measurement requirement of high accuracy. The method comprises the following steps: generating a clock signal and a coherent local oscillator signal by using a preset signal source; generatinga synchronous intermediate frequency signal according to the clock signal; carrying out frequency mixing processing on the synchronous intermediate frequency signal and the local oscillator signal togenerate a synchronous radio frequency signal of a frequency band to be tested, wherein the synchronous radio frequency signal comprises a first radio frequency signal and a second radio frequency signal; and measuring the nonlinear vector network analyzer of the frequency band to be tested by using the first radio frequency signal and the second radio frequency signal. The method is suitable formeasurement of the nonlinear vector network analyzer with accurate phase synchronization.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of radio frequency microwave signal measurement, in particular to a method and device for measuring a nonlinear vector network analyzer with precise phase synchronization. Background technique [0002] The Nonlinear Vector Network Analyzer (NVNA) is an instrument device for measuring and characterizing the nonlinear behavior of RF microwave devices. It introduces a multi-frequency component phase reference signal R, and uses the frequency point-by-frequency phase difference measurement between the measured signal and the reference signal to realize the phase spectrum measurement of the complex measured signal. [0003] At present, the measurement methods and devices of nonlinear vector network analyzers usually use 10MHz "frequency lock" to achieve the phase synchronization of the test excitation signal and the phase reference signal, without achieving "signal coherence". When the measured frequency band is increas...
