ON-CHIP REFLECTION COEFFICIENT MEASUREMENT SYSTEM

A device may include a receive (Rx) antenna input to couple an Rx antenna to an Rx chain, and a signal coupler to inject the test signal toward the Rx antenna. The device may include an Rx antenna switch to, in a first switch state, cause the Rx antenna to be isolated from the Rx chain and, in a sec...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A device may include a receive (Rx) antenna input to couple an Rx antenna to an Rx chain, and a signal coupler to inject the test signal toward the Rx antenna. The device may include an Rx antenna switch to, in a first switch state, cause the Rx antenna to be isolated from the Rx chain and, in a second switch state, permit the test signal to probe the Rx antenna. The Rx chain may measure a phasor of a first baseband signal generated based on a first reflected test signal and a phasor of a second baseband signal generated based on a second reflected test signal. The device may include a control circuit to compute a complex ratio based on the phasors, compute a measured reflection coefficient based on the complex ratio and using a transfer function, and monitor an impedance matching of the Rx antenna.
