In wireless communication system, conventionally adopt power amplifier to carry out power amplification to the signal in transmission, with the power level that guarantees that signal is enough, spread signal coverage.When power amplifier carries out the operation of power amplification to the signal receiving, when the over proof power output of power output of power amplifier, can cause signal serious distortion to affect communication quality, even damage equipment.For this problem, generally can in power amplification device, add can limiting power amplifier peak power output control, protective circuit, this circuit is called as automatic electric-level and controls (Automatic Level Control, ALC) circuit.
In power amplification device, apply after alc circuit, after the power output overrate of power amplifier, alc circuit can be processed the signal of power amplifier output, and the signal feedback that processing is obtained is to the input of power amplification device, make power amplification device adjust attenuation parameter according to the signal of this feedback, power attenuation amount to the signal of input is controlled, thereby adjust the power of the signal that inputs to power amplifier, and then the maximum signal power of limiting power amplifier output.Generally speaking, the level of the output signal after power amplification device amplifies input signal reaches after the predetermined level of alc circuit, if the power of input signal increases again, alc circuit carries out the decay of corresponding power, to keep the power stability of output signal at an expectation power, this expectation power can be called ALC power.
In actual applications, the ALC power that can be stabilized according to the signal demand of the actual characteristic of power amplifier and output, controls the variation of attenuation parameter.
Figure 1 shows that the structural representation of the power amplification device with alc circuit, this circuit can amplify the power of continuous signal, also can amplify the power of time slot signal.
Comprising alc circuit 11 and power amplification circuit 12, alc circuit 11 comprises rf attenuation circuit 111, coupling circuit 112, detecting circuit 113 and integrating amplification circuit 114.
The radiofrequency signal that need to process through power amplification device, an input of rf attenuation circuit 111 will be imported into, another input of rf attenuation circuit 111, by integrating amplification circuit 114 input attenuation control signals, rf attenuation circuit 111 is determined attenuation parameter according to the voltage of the attenuation control signal of input, and use definite attenuation parameter to carry out attenuation processing to this radiofrequency signal of input, then radiofrequency signal after decay is exported to power amplification circuit 12.
After the decay of 12 pairs of inputs of power amplification circuit, radiofrequency signal is carried out power amplification processing, be amplified rear radiofrequency signal, after after amplifying, radiofrequency signal can be used as the processing of power amplification device, radiofrequency signal is exported, meanwhile, can also by this amplifications afterwards radiofrequency signal export to coupling circuit 112.
After 112 pairs of these amplifications of coupling circuit, radiofrequency signal is coupled, and then radiofrequency signal after the coupling obtaining is exported to detecting circuit 113.
After 113 pairs of couplings of detecting circuit, radiofrequency signal is carried out power samples, obtains the voltage signal of quantification, and is input to an input of integrating amplification circuit 114.The magnitude of voltage of the performance number that after 113 pairs of couplings of detecting circuit, radiofrequency signal sampling obtains and the voltage signal of output has relation one to one, and the performance number that sampling obtains is larger, and the magnitude of voltage of the voltage signal of output is also larger.
One end of integrating amplification circuit 114 is transfused to this voltage signal of detecting circuit 113 outputs, the other end is transfused to reference voltage signal, for comparing with this voltage signal, and both voltage differences are amplified, be amplified rear magnitude of voltage, then to rf attenuation circuit 111 output voltages for this amplify after the attenuation control signal of magnitude of voltage.
