Fault Diagnosis of Low-Noise Amplifier Circuit Based on Fusion Domain Adaptation Method

The Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) is a critical component of Radio Frequency (RF) receivers. Therefore, the accuracy of LNA fault diagnosis significantly impacts the overall performance of the entire RF receiver. Traditional LNA fault diagnosis is typically conducted under fixed conditions, but varying factors in practical applications often alter the circuit’s parameters and reduce diagnostic accuracy. To address the issue of decreased fault diagnosis accuracy under varying external or internal conditions, a fusion domain adaptation method based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), referred to as FDA, is proposed. Firstly, a domain-adaptive diagnostic model was established based on the feature extraction capabilities of CNNs. The powerful deep feature extraction capabilities of CNNs and the adaptability of domain adaptation methods to changing conditions are leveraged to enhance both the generalization ability of diagnostic models and the environmental adaptability of diagnostic techniques. Secondly, the fusion of feature-mapping domain adaptation and adversarial domain adaptation further enhances the convergence speed and diagnostic accuracy of the LNA cross-domain fault diagnosis model in the target domain. Finally, various cross-domain experiments were conducted. The FDA method achieved an average fault diagnosis rate of 90.19%, which represents an improvement of over 30% in accuracy compared to a CNN and also shows enhancements over individual domain-adaptation methods.
