The obje

20、ctive of the test procedures given below is to characterize the group delay variation of a wave propagated in waveguide or waveguide assemblies. 2 General Group delay variation of a waveguide versus frequency, describes the variations of the derivative or the slope of the phase characteristic within

21、 the bandwidth. Group delay variation, often referred to as group delay distortion also, is found in all waveguide with wave propagation modes having a non-linear dependence of frequency on wavelength. Furthermore, dimensional variations along waveguide, single or multiple reflections, filter struct

22、ures, multi-mode propagation, etc. can cause additional group delay variations. Signals of non-zero bandwidth transmitted through media exhibiting large group delay variations can be altered in such a way that, in the extreme case, the information contained in the bandwidth cannot be restored. 3 Pri

23、nciple Three main measurement principles are currently used: a) static numerical differentiation; b) AM measurement; c) FM measurement. Methods a) and c) require expensive and/or complicated test equipment, therefore assembling a test set-up from single components can not be recommended. However, de

24、dicated test equipment does provide accurate group delay variation measurements with convenient data presentation. Method b) can be assembled from current RF-laboratory test equipment. For the test, an unmodulated or modulated RF-signal is sent through the waveguide under test (WUT). At the output,

25、the phase of the RF signal (or of the demodulated signal) is compared with the reference phase at the input of the WUT. Page 5 EN 61580-3 : 1997 Group delay variation is then derived using computation formula: or signal processing based on the where 7 is the group delay in seconds; As is the variati

26、on of. group delay; $I is the transmission phase in radians; w is the frequency in radians; f is the frequency in hertz. NOTE - The comparison of group delay variation measurements obtained by direct phase measurement (and subsequent computation) with test results from a modulated carrier method may

27、 be difficult. Compensation for the modulation bandwidth in respect to the discrete step-tidth in the computation routine for group delay calculation may be necessary. 4 Testset-up Two test Set-ups are described below. Figure 1 describes a test set-up to be used for any of the methods a), b), or c)

28、allowing direct measurement of group delay variation. Figure 2 describes a test set-up to be used for method b). It can be assembled from standard laboratory test equipment. Additional computation for deriving the correct group delay values is necessary. 4.1 Test set-up 1 This test set-up uses a net

29、work analyzer which directly measures the phase at two closely spaced frequencies and then computes the slope (approximation of the derivative). REMARK - Attention should be paid to the interval between the two frequencies (called “aperture). Increasing the aperture tends to average out fine grain v

30、ariations in the group delay data because the fine grain variations in the phase data are lost. Errors will occur when there is more than 180“ of phase shift between adjacent frequency points. However, for el% resolution uncertainty, one must maintain 21“ phase shift between frequency points. STD-BS

35、ration according to the manufacturers instructions. - Connect the two test ports of the test equipment together to establish a calibration line. This calibration line serves not only for measuring the group delay variation but also checks for the absolute delay produced by the electrical length of t

36、he WUT. - Insert the WUT. Offset the network analyzer to compensate for the absolute delay if necessary. - Record the group delay variation of the WUT. Caution: For group delay variation measurements in the Nanosecond-range, the test ports of the instrumentation must be very closely matched to the s

37、pecified characteristic impedance or waveguide dimension. 4.1.3 Expression of results The group delay variation can be read as a function of frequency directly from the recorded curve. 4.2 Test Set-up 2 The RF carrier is amplitude modulated and the group delay variation is measured as a function of

38、the distortion of the envelope of the modulated signal. After passing through the WUT, the modulated signal is demodulated (detector). In the phase comparator, the demodulated signal and the reference signal produce an output signal according to the following formula: -1 X A4 7(0) = - 2xxk where z i

39、s the group delay in seconds; A# is the variation of phase of modulation in radians; fm is the frequency of the modulation in hertz. NOTE - Fast variations in the group delay response of the WUT can be averaged out, if the modulation frequency is too large. Therefore, different modulation frequencie

40、s should be used during the measurements. REMARKS - A medium amplitude modulation factor (-50 %) has to be chosen. If the modulation factor is too small, the response will be poor; if it is too large, it could lead to phase distortions in the modulator/detector used. Page 8 EN 61580-3 : 1997 -%- 111

Record the group delay variation, if any, produced by the test equipment. Ensure that the variable atten

45、uator exhibits a constant group delay when adjusted. - Insert the WUT. If necessary, compensate for the loss of the WUT by adjusting the variable attenuator. - Record the group delay variation of the WUT. REMARK - Depending on the construction of the phase detector and the absolute delay introduced

46、by the WUT, the slope of the displayed group delay variation may appear inverted relative to the previously recorded Cali bration. - For group delay variation measurements in the nanosecond range, the test ports of the instrumentation must be very closely matched to the specified characteristic impe
