Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to the field of mobile application processor, and particularly to a method for resisting an interference of high-order harmonics and a mobile terminal.


BACKGROUND

A display having a high resolution and a camera having a high pixel have become a necessity with the development of the mobile terminal technology.


A greater volume of data is generated with the raise of a pixel of the display, and further an operating frequency of a MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) bus for transmitting data is required to be greater and greater. High-order harmonics are generated inevitably during the operation of the MIPI bus, and some of the high-order harmonics will fall within a range of a radio frequency communication frequency band, and therefore is received by an antenna of the mobile terminal, which will result in reducing receiving sensitivity of the antenna and even affecting a normal call of the mobile terminal in a severe case.


An existing solution is to add a high-frequency filtering circuit (common mode choke in general) in circuit design, to filter the high-order harmonics via the high-frequency filtering circuit. However, it can be found by the inventor of the present disclosure that, the greater the attenuation of the high-frequency filtering circuit, the better the effect of filtering the high-order harmonics, the greater the influence on a waveform of an MIPI signal, which results in that the quality of the MIPI is unqualified, and the less the attenuation of the high-frequency filtering circuit, the smaller the influence on the waveform of the MIPI signal, and the poorer the effect of filtering the high-order harmonics.

In a case that high-order harmonics generated due to the operating frequency of the MIPI bus of the display fall within the frequency band described above when the mobile terminal performs communication, the high-order harmonics may be received by an antenna, which results in bad communication of the mobile terminal.


Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, a method for resisting an interference of high-order harmonics on an MIPI bus of a display is provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure based on the conventional technology, the method includes steps 201 to 203.


In step 201, a radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by a mobile terminal is detected. A two-dimensional relation table between a network type and a communication frequency band is stored in a storage of a mobile terminal, as shown in Table 1-1. In a preferable embodiment, a communication frequency band of the mobile terminal can be acquired based on a radio frequency network type used by the mobile terminal. For example, in a case that the mobile terminal performs communication in a frequency band in GSM900, a receiving frequency of the mobile terminal ranges from 925 MHz to 959.8 MHz.


In step 202, a safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display corresponding to the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by the mobile terminal is inquired based on a correspondence. A correspondence between a radio frequency communication frequency band available for a mobile terminal and a safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display is stored in the storage of the mobile terminal in advance. Specifically, high-order harmonics generated when the MIPI bus of the display operates in the safety frequency do not fall within a range of the radio frequency communication frequency band corresponding to the safety frequency. In this step, a safety frequency corresponding to the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by the mobile terminal acquired in step 202 is acquired based on the radio frequency communication frequency band.


In step 203, a current operating frequency of the MIPI bus of the display is set as the inquired safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display.


In an optional embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, determining the network radio frequency communication frequency band and the safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display includes step 301 to step 304.


In step 301, a first operating frequency is set for the MIPI bus of the display with respect to a radio frequency communication frequency band available for the mobile terminal. For example, in a case that the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by the mobile terminal ranges from 925 MHz to 959.8 MHz, the first operating frequency set for the MIPI bus of the display of the mobile terminal is 800 MHz, which is set by an engineer based on design experience.


In step 302, a frequency of high-order harmonics generated by the MIPI bus of the display is determined based on the first operating frequency. A frequency of a received high-order harmonics generated by the MIPI bus of the display is measured by a measurement device for the high-order harmonics.


In an optional embodiment, a 1/4 frequency division frequency or a 1/12 frequency division frequency of the operating frequency of the MIPI bus of the display is calculated, and a frequency multiplication frequency of the frequency division frequency is then calculated as the frequency of the high-order harmonics generated by the MIPI bus of the display.


One clock channel Lane (channel) and one to four data Lanes (channel) are defined by the DSI interface between the baseband chip and the display driver chip to transmit data. Whether the 1/4 frequency division frequency or the 1/12 frequency division frequency is used to calculate the frequency multiplication frequency is determined based on the number of channels (Lane) in the MIPI bus of the display. RGB (Red, Green and Blue) signals in the MIPI bus are transmitted in parallel. In a case that the number of lanes in the MIPI bus is two, a same color component (R, G or B) is repeated every three clock periods. In a case that the number of lanes in the MIPI bus is three, a same color component (R, G or B) is repeated every clock period. In a case that the number of lanes in the MIPI bus is four, a same color component (R, G or B) is repeated every three clock periods, and so forth. Two color components data can be transmitted within each clock period, each color component data includes eight bytes. Therefore, in a case that the color component data is repeated every three clock periods, MIPI interference interval=MIPI frequency*2/(8*3)=MIPI frequency/12; in a case that the color component data is repeated every clock period, MIPI interference interval=MIPI frequency*2/(8*1)=MIPI frequency/4. In a case that the number of lanes in the MIPI bus is two, the MIPI interference interval is the 1/12 frequency division frequency of a MIPI frequency. In a case that the number of lanes in the MIPI bus is three, the MIPI interference interval is the 1/4 frequency division frequency of the MIPI frequency. In a case that the number of MIPI channels is four, the MIPI interference interval is the 1/12 frequency division frequency of the MIPI frequency, and so forth.


In step 303, it is determined whether the frequency of the high-order harmonics falls within the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used. Step 304 is executed in a case that the frequency of the high-order harmonics does not fall within the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used.


In step 304, the first operating frequency is served as a safety frequency corresponding to the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used.

The method may include: detecting a radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by the mobile terminal; querying a safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display corresponding to the radio frequency communication frequency band currently used by the mobile terminal based on the correspondence; and setting a current operating frequency of the MIPI bus of the display as queried safety frequency of the MIPI bus of the display.
