Method for digitally compensating variations, as a function of temperature, of an electrical quantity of an embedded space radiofrequency telecommunications equipment item

摘要

A digital compensation method includes measuring the temperature of the equipment item and applying an analogue control voltage intended to maintain the electrical quantity of the equipment item at a predetermined setpoint value. At each measurement instant, the method includes interrogating look-up tables respectively associated with different setpoint values, then, when the measured temperature is situated between two digital temperature states stored in the look-up tables, creating intermediate digital temperature states situated between the two stored digital temperature states, computing, by interpolation, digital control words corresponding to the intermediate digital temperature states created, and selecting a digital control word, stored or intermediate, corresponding to the measured temperature, then delivering, to at least one of the N individual devices, the analogue control corresponding to the selected digital control word.

1. A method for digitally compensating variations, as a function of temperature, of an electrical quantity of an embedded space radiofrequency telecommunications equipment item, the equipment item comprising N individual devices, where N is greater than or equal to one, the electrical quantity of the equipment item having to be maintained at a predetermined setpoint value, the method comprising, in order:
measuring the temperature of the equipment item at different measurement instants, at each measurement instant, in interrogating look-up tables, respectively dedicated to different setpoint values, in which digital control words are stored that are to be applied to the equipment item as a function of different digital temperature states corresponding to different measured temperature values, when the measured temperature is situated between two digital temperature states stored in the look-up tables, in creating intermediate digital temperature states situated between the two stored digital temperature states and in computing, by interpolation, digital control words corresponding to the intermediate digital temperature states created, creating, by interpolation between two stored digital control words, intermediate digital control words coded on a number of bits greater than the number of bits of the stored digital control words, selecting a digital control word corresponding to the measured temperature, and delivering, to the equipment item, an analogue control corresponding to the selected digital control word.
