Abstract

This paper presents a study on the subject for the design and implementation of high-speed frequency hopping RF transceiver used for tactical communications systems. Jump the transmission / reception frequency of the L-band to hop tens per second is possible by maximizing the immunity to interference, and is applicable to communication systems having a charging rotation function. To high-speed frequency hopping it is necessary to apply the necessary fast frequency hopping scheme DDS Driven PLL added. In this paper, the RF transceiver design and simulation analysis capabilities with fast frequency tactical communication systems, were implemented after the main test for functionality and performance. Was demonstrated hop high-speed jump tens per second through a test, the main transmission output, were measured RF key performance, such as received noise figure, by using the VSG and VSA generates a ${\pi}/4$ DQPSK modulated signal constellation and by EVM measurement that there is no problem in applying the communications system described above was pre-validated.

본 논문은 전술통신시스템에 사용되는 고속주파수 도약용 RF송수신기의 설계 및 구현에 대한 연구를 주제로 하였다. L대역의 송/수신 주파수를 초당 수만홉으로 도약하여 간섭에 대한 내성을 극대화가 가능하고 대 전자전 기능을 가지는 통신시스템에 적용이 가능하다. 고속주파수 도약이 가능하기 위해서는 DDS Driven PLL 방식을 적용한 고속 주파수 도약부가 필수적으로 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 전술통신시스템의 고속주파수 기능을 가지는 RF송수신기 설계 및 시뮬레이션 분석을 하였고, 구현 후 주요기능 및 성능에 대한 시험을 하였다. 시험을 통하여 초당 수만홉 고속 도약을 입증하였으며, 주요 송신출력, 수신 잡음지수 등의 RF 주요성능을 측정하였다. VSG(: Vector Signal Generator) 및 VSA(: Vector Signal Analyzer)를 사용하여 ${\pi}/4$ DQPSK 변조신호를 발생시켜, 성상도 및 EVM(: Error Vector Magnitude)을 측정하여 전술통신시스템에 적용하는데 문제가 없음을 사전 검증하였다.
