Accurate Frequency Detection Technology Based on Quantization Phase Accumulation Effect

To address the quantization phase accumulation effect caused by different frequency signals during phase comparison, an accurate frequency detection technology is presented. Through quantized phase analysis, statistics, and processing of the phase difference between the different frequency signals, high-precision measurement of the measured signal is realized. This detection method uses any phase difference within a group period as the switch signal of the counter, overcoming the +/- 1-word quantization error in traditional frequency measurement and improving measurement accuracy and detection speed. By integrating FPGA technology, the volume of the measurement equipment has been simplified, and the cost and power consumption have been reduced. The experimental results and analysis show that the method is advanced and scientific, and the actual measurement uncertainty reaches the level of 10-13 at 1 s. Compared with traditional frequency measurement technology, this frequency detection technology offers significant advantages in power consumption, device size, and detection rate. It is crucial for Beidou satellite time synchronization, radar detection, high-precision space positioning, and other high-tech applications.
