无线通信系统中基于时分双工的信号发射和接收方法Signal Transmitting and Receiving Method Based on Time Division Duplex in Wireless Communication System

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及无线通信系统中的信号发射和接收方法。The present invention relates to signal transmission and reception methods in a wireless communication system.

背景技术Background technique

无线通信为人们提供了随时随地相互联系以及获取信息的手段,因此在近几年中得到了迅速的普及。然而,在目前的无线环境中,由于移动的需求,无线信号的定向传输有一定的限制,这样就造成不同用户的无线通信相互之间不可避免地存在着互相干扰。为了保证各种无线通信的正常进行,无线频谱的使用一般都要受到严格的限制和管理,这样无线通信不可能象有线通信一样具有很大的带宽,因此,基于有限的可用无线频谱,如何能够增加无线通信系统信息传输能力是迫切需要解决的问题。Wireless communication provides the means for people to connect with each other and obtain information anytime and anywhere, so it has been rapidly popularized in recent years. However, in the current wireless environment, due to the requirement of mobility, the directional transmission of wireless signals has certain limitations, which inevitably causes mutual interference between wireless communications of different users. In order to ensure the normal progress of various wireless communications, the use of wireless spectrum is generally subject to strict restrictions and management. In this way, wireless communication cannot have a large bandwidth like wired communication. Therefore, based on the limited available wireless spectrum, how can Increasing the information transmission capability of the wireless communication system is an urgent problem to be solved.

在无线通信中,衰落的无线信道是阻碍有效通信实现的主要因素之一。为此,研究者提出了多天线发射/接收的技术,“在衰落环境下,使用多元天线的无线通信多层空时结构(G J Foschini,″Layered space-timearchitecture for wire1ess communication in fading environment when usingmulti-element antennas″,Bell Labs Technical Journal,pp.41-59,Autumn1996.)一文中就公开了上述技术,该技术可以在独立的平坦衰落信道假设下,保证高效率的高速数据传输通信。然而,由于无线接收的多个信道不能随时保持相互独立,在每一个接收的单位时间内,互相之间仍然有较大的干扰,加上天线互相耦合等因素,多天线同时发射/接收的方法在实现上仍然存在效率被严重降低的问题。近来对多天线系统的研究已经开始考虑如何根据反馈对发射天线进行选择的问题,例如“使用空时块编码的多输入多输出系统的最优天线选择”(A Paulraj and D Gore,″Optimal antennaselection in MIMO systems with space-time block coding″,IEICE Trans.Commun.,2001(E84-B):7,pp.1713-1719.)一文就公开了类似研究结果。然而,任何反馈都必然存在时延,同时时延的存在必将影响系统的效率。In wireless communication, the fading wireless channel is one of the main factors hindering the realization of effective communication. To this end, the researchers proposed a multi-antenna transmission/reception technology, "In a fading environment, a wireless communication multi-layer space-time structure using multiple antennas (G J Foschini, "Layered space-time architecture for wire1ess communication in fading environment when using multi -element antennas ", Bell Labs Technical Journal, pp.41-59, Autumn1996.) the above-mentioned technology is disclosed in the article, which can ensure high-efficiency high-speed data transmission communication under the assumption of an independent flat fading channel. However, Since the multiple channels of wireless reception cannot be kept independent of each other at any time, there is still a large interference between each other in each receiving unit time, coupled with factors such as mutual coupling of antennas, the method of simultaneous transmission/reception of multiple antennas is being realized. There is still the problem that the efficiency is seriously reduced.Recent research on multi-antenna systems has begun to consider how to select the transmit antenna based on feedback, such as "Optimal Antenna Selection for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Systems Using Space-Time Block Coding" (A Paulraj and D Gore, "Optimal antenna selection in MIMO systems with space-time block coding", IEICE Trans.Commun., 2001(E84-B): 7, pp.1713-1719.) published similar research results .However, there must be time delay in any feedback, and the existence of time delay will definitely affect the efficiency of the system.

According to this, in the time division duplex system, the mobile station can obtain the channel conditions of uplink and downlink at the same time, so as to select the optimal uplink transmit antenna according to a certain principle, which can be one or multiple transmit antennas.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

在现有的多天线系统中,其应用的前提是存在独立的瑞利衰落信道。多天线系统实现的关键在移动台一端的多天线的产品化,其困难在于设备的便携性与多天线信道保持相互独立的矛盾。由于实际环境的多样性,当移动台的接收天线相距为载波波长的一半时,信号所经历的衰落信道仍然有可能存在较大的相关性,这使得移动台的天线很难设置。然而,对于噪声而言,由于噪声信号的来波方位角分布较为广阔,噪声本身也是多个信号的合成,因此,在移动台上实现多天线的接收噪声相互独立,要比保证不同天线上信号的信道相互独立更加易于实现。In existing multi-antenna systems, the premise of its application is the existence of independent Rayleigh fading channels. The key to the realization of the multi-antenna system lies in the commercialization of the multi-antenna at the mobile station. The difficulty lies in the contradiction between the portability of the equipment and the independence of the multi-antenna channels. Due to the diversity of the actual environment, when the distance between the receiving antennas of the mobile station is half of the carrier wavelength, there may still be a large correlation between the fading channels experienced by the signal, which makes it difficult to set up the antennas of the mobile station. However, for noise, since the incoming azimuth angle distribution of the noise signal is relatively wide, and the noise itself is also a combination of multiple signals, it is better to realize the independent reception noise of multiple antennas on the mobile station than to ensure that the signals on different antennas are independent of each other. It is easier to realize that the channels are independent of each other.

以两根接收天线为例,在其接收到的噪声相互独立时,对于单发射天线的发射信号而言,两个接收天线上的接收信号可以下列表示式表示:Taking two receiving antennas as an example, when the noise received by them is independent of each other, for the transmitting signal of a single transmitting antenna, the received signal on the two receiving antennas can be expressed by the following expression:

rr 11 == hh 11 SS ++ nno 11 rr 22 == hh 22 SS ++ nno 22 -- -- -- -- (( 11 ))

其中,r1和r2分别是天线1和天线2上的接收信号,S是单天线发射的符号,假设符号能量为Es,h1和h2则分别是该符号到达两根接收天线时所经历的衰落信道,n1和n2则是两根天线接收的噪声。Among them, r 1 and r 2 are the received signals on antenna 1 and antenna 2 respectively, S is the symbol transmitted by a single antenna, assuming that the symbol energy is E s , h 1 and h 2 are respectively when the symbol reaches two receiving antennas The experienced fading channel, n 1 and n 2 is the noise received by the two antennas.

按照现有的多天线发射和接收无线信号的方法,假设h1和h2是已知(或者已经估计)的平坦衰落信道,并且在信号接收的短时间内是不变或者缓慢变化的(这里不要求两个信道是相互独立的),并且假设两根天线接收的噪声n1和n2是高斯噪声,噪声功率为σ2。从前面的讨论可以知道,实现中容易保证这两个噪声信号相互独立。例如当两根天线相距超过载波波长的一半时,这两个噪声信号相互独立。对天线的接收信号进行最大比合并,则合并后的信号:According to the existing methods for transmitting and receiving wireless signals with multiple antennas, it is assumed that h 1 and h 2 are known (or estimated) flat fading channels, and they are constant or slowly changing in a short time of signal reception (here It is not required that the two channels are mutually independent), and it is assumed that the noises n 1 and n 2 received by the two antennas are Gaussian noise, and the noise power is σ 2 . As can be seen from the previous discussion, it is easy to ensure that the two noise signals are independent of each other in implementation. For example, when the two antennas are separated by more than half of the carrier wavelength, the two noise signals are independent of each other. The maximum ratio combination is performed on the received signals of the antenna, then the combined signal:

rr == hh 11 ** rr 11 ++ hh 22 ** rr 22 == (( || hh 11 || 22 ++ || hh 22 || 22 )) SS ++ (( hh 11 ** nno 11 ++ hh 22 ** nno 22 )) -- -- -- (( 22 ))

得到的信号的信噪比为:The resulting signal-to-noise ratio is:

SNRSNR == (( || hh 11 || 22 ++ || hh 22 || 22 )) 22 EE. SS || hh 11 || 22 σσ 22 ++ || hh 22 || 22 σσ 22 == (( || hh 11 || 22 ++ || hh 22 || 22 )) EE. SS σσ 22 -- -- -- (( 33 ))

原来两根接收天线的信噪比分别为

Figure C0212603800093
则由公式(3)可知,接收信号的信噪比得到了增强。由于信噪比的增强不需要信号信道独立的条件,而只需要噪声相互独立的条件;这一条件,在无线环境中容易得到满足,例如,在设置多天线时,只要不同天线相距超过载波波长的一半即可基本得到满足,无论是在基站侧,还是在移动终端侧。The original signal-to-noise ratios of the two receiving antennas are
Figure C0212603800093
It can be seen from formula (3) that the signal-to-noise ratio of the received signal is enhanced. Since the enhancement of signal-to-noise ratio does not require the independent condition of the signal channel, but only the independent condition of the noise; this condition is easy to be satisfied in the wireless environment, for example, when setting up multiple antennas, as long as the distance between different antennas exceeds the carrier wavelength Half of can be basically satisfied, whether it is on the base station side or on the mobile terminal side.

由于在时分双工系统中,上行和下行采用同一个载波,因此通过单侧信道测量,可以同时得到两侧的信道的估计。这使得多天线系统在时分双工系统中应用时,可以简化对信道测量的反馈,有利于提高多天线发射/接收方法的性能。Since the uplink and downlink use the same carrier in the time division duplex system, channel estimates on both sides can be obtained simultaneously through single-side channel measurement. This enables the multi-antenna system to simplify the feedback of channel measurement when it is applied in the time division duplex system, which is beneficial to improve the performance of the multi-antenna transmission/reception method.

与基站广播导频信号不同,在一个无线通信的小区中,移动用户不可能随时向基站发送导频信号,供基站测量该用户的信道条件。这一点,在实现多天线发射/接收时尤为突出。假设一个小区中有3个用户,每个用户的移动设备有两个发射天线。为了让基站得到这些用户设备的所有天线的发射信道条件的有效估计,需要为这些用户分配3×2=6个资源,在码分多址系统中意味着需要分配6个码,在时分多址系统中则意味着需要分配6个足够长的时隙,而且需要分配资源的数目随着用户数的增加呈线性增加。因此,在一般的时分双工无线通信系统中,只能采用基站广播导频信号,即公共导频信号的方法,使得移动台通过测量,获得上行和下行的信道估计。Different from the base station broadcasting the pilot signal, in a wireless communication cell, it is impossible for the mobile user to send the pilot signal to the base station at any time for the base station to measure the channel condition of the user. This point is especially prominent when realizing multi-antenna transmission/reception. Suppose there are 3 users in a cell, and each user's mobile device has two transmit antennas. In order for the base station to obtain an effective estimate of the transmission channel conditions of all antennas of these user equipments, it is necessary to allocate 3×2=6 resources for these users, which means that 6 codes need to be allocated in a code division multiple access system, and in time division multiple access In the system, it means that 6 sufficiently long time slots need to be allocated, and the number of allocated resources increases linearly with the increase of the number of users. Therefore, in a general time-division duplex wireless communication system, only the method of broadcasting pilot signals by the base station, that is, the common pilot signal, can be used to enable the mobile station to obtain uplink and downlink channel estimates through measurement.

在对发射天线做选择的多天线发射/接收系统中,应用上述单向公共导频信号发射的方法,将使得某一个方向的信号发射因为不具备所有天线的信道的估计而缺乏判断的依据,从而部分丧失方法的性能,所以,在多天线发射/接收系统中必须避免上述缺陷。In the multi-antenna transmission/reception system that selects the transmission antenna, the application of the above-mentioned one-way common pilot signal transmission method will make the signal transmission in a certain direction lack the basis for judgment because the channel estimation of all antennas is not available. The performance of the method is thus partially lost, so the above-mentioned disadvantages must be avoided in a multi-antenna transmission/reception system.

下面对本发明的实施作进一步详细的描述。The implementation of the present invention will be further described in detail below.

在基于时分双工无线通信系统中,首先在基站侧和移动台侧分别设置多个天线,上述多个天线按照各个天线接收到的噪声相互独立的原则设置,具体可以采用下述方法设置:基站侧的天线相互距离,可以依据服务的扇区角度α大小而定,使得相邻两天线的距离不小于载波半波长×360度/a,即相邻天线间距离大于或等于 也可以简单设置为载波波长的一半;移动台一侧的相邻天线的距离则不应小于载波波长一半,即相邻天线之间的距离大于或等于

Figure C0212603800102
对于上述天线的设置,也可以做进一步的要求,使得不同天线上接收到的各个信号所经历的信道都是相互独立的,即,上述多个天线按照不同发射天线的信号到达不同接收天线的信道相互独立的原则设置。In a wireless communication system based on time division duplexing, firstly, multiple antennas are set up on the base station side and the mobile station side respectively, and the above multiple antennas are set up according to the principle that the noise received by each antenna is independent of each other. Specifically, the following methods can be used to set up: base station The distance between the antennas on the side can be determined according to the size of the sector angle α of the service, so that the distance between two adjacent antennas is not less than the half-wavelength of the carrier × 360 degrees/a, that is, the distance between adjacent antennas is greater than or equal to It can also be simply set to half of the carrier wavelength; the distance between adjacent antennas on the mobile station side should not be less than half of the carrier wavelength, that is, the distance between adjacent antennas is greater than or equal to
Figure C0212603800102
For the above-mentioned antenna setting, further requirements can also be made so that the channels experienced by the signals received on different antennas are independent of each other, that is, the above-mentioned multiple antennas reach the channels of different receiving antennas according to the signals of different transmitting antennas The principles set independently of each other.

在时分双工系统中,在下行发射的时间段中安排单独的时间片,供基站的所有发射天线发射公共导频。不同天线的导频信号的发射方式可以是码分,也可以是时分。如果采用码分方式,则基站的所有天线在固定分配的时间段内也可以选择同一个码通过不同循环移位得到的码作为导频进行发射。例如,假设存在一个码序列[m1 m2…m128],则可以为基站天线1分配导频序列[m1…m128 m1…m8],基站天线2分配导频序列[m9…m128 m1…m16],以此类推。这种通过一个码循环移位得到的所有码具有较好的性质,就是信道估计极为简单,只要用同一个序列多次循环相乘,就可以得到所有的信道估计。在多天线公共导频发射时,采用这种码,对于简化移动台的信道估计的实现很有帮助。移动台根据基站广播的公共导频信号自行测量各自的多天线上的信道,获得各自的移动台天线与基站天线之间的所有信道估计。移动台在这一信道估计的基础上,根据某种准则确定上行发射的天线。可以是一根发射天线,也可以是多根发射天线。利用所确定的上行发射天线,自下一个上行发射时刻,在上行发射时间段内,移动台上行发射数据。这里所述的选定其中的一根或多根天线为选择所接收的所有发射信号强度或者信噪比之和最大的天线。同时,移动台还根据自己的不同接收天线上的所有接收的导频信号,选定基站的一根或多根天线作为发射天线,并通知基站在下一次下行发射时利用上述移动台选定的天线向该移动台发射信号。这里所述的选定其中的一根或多根天线为选择发射信号在所有移动台天线上的接收信号强度或者信噪比之和最大的天线.基站在接收到移动台的通知后,自下一个下行发射时刻,选用移动台所选定的天线在下行发射时间段内为该移动台发射数据,并在固定分配的时间片中继续广播公共导频信号,提供移动台做下一时刻的信道估计。In the time division duplex system, a separate time slot is arranged in the downlink transmission time period for all transmitting antennas of the base station to transmit common pilots. The transmission mode of the pilot signals of different antennas can be code division or time division. If the code division method is adopted, all antennas of the base station can also select codes obtained by the same code through different cyclic shifts as pilots for transmission within a fixedly allocated time period. For example, assuming there is a code sequence [m 1 m 2 ...m 128 ], the pilot sequence [m 1 ...m 128 m 1 ...m 8 ] can be assigned to the base station antenna 1, and the pilot sequence [m 9 …m 128 m 1 …m 16 ], and so on. All codes obtained by cyclically shifting one code have better properties, that is, channel estimation is extremely simple, as long as the same sequence is multiplied by multiple cycles, all channel estimates can be obtained. When the multi-antenna common pilot is transmitted, the use of this code is very helpful for simplifying the channel estimation of the mobile station. The mobile stations measure the channels on their respective multi-antennas by themselves according to the common pilot signal broadcast by the base station, and obtain all channel estimates between the respective mobile station antennas and the base station antennas. On the basis of this channel estimation, the mobile station determines the antenna for uplink transmission according to a certain criterion. It can be one transmitting antenna or multiple transmitting antennas. Using the determined uplink transmitting antenna, the mobile station transmits data uplink within the uplink transmission time period from the next uplink transmission moment. The selection of one or more antennas mentioned here refers to selecting the antenna with the largest sum of received transmitted signal strengths or signal-to-noise ratios. At the same time, the mobile station also selects one or more antennas of the base station as transmitting antennas according to all received pilot signals on its own different receiving antennas, and notifies the base station to use the antennas selected by the mobile station for the next downlink transmission. A signal is transmitted to the mobile station. The selection of one or more antennas mentioned here is to select the antenna with the largest received signal strength or signal-to-noise ratio of the transmitted signal on all mobile station antennas. After receiving the notification from the mobile station, the base station will automatically At a downlink transmission time, select the antenna selected by the mobile station to transmit data for the mobile station during the downlink transmission time period, and continue to broadcast the common pilot signal in the fixedly allocated time slice, providing the mobile station with channel estimation at the next moment .

本发明所述方法不排除基站智能天线的使用。基站在下行发射中,如果多根天线存在完全相关或者强相关的情况,也可以用这多根天线实现定向发射。由于在定向发射中,多根天线发射的信号完全相同,所经历的信道也基本相同,差别仅仅在于加权值的不同,从而形成空间上的定向发射,因此其效果仍然等同于单根天线发射。The method of the present invention does not exclude the use of base station smart antennas. In the downlink transmission of the base station, if multiple antennas are fully correlated or strongly correlated, the multiple antennas can also be used to implement directional transmission. In directional transmission, the signals transmitted by multiple antennas are exactly the same, and the channels experienced are basically the same, the difference is only in the weight value, thus forming a spatial directional transmission, so its effect is still equivalent to single antenna transmission.

图1是应用本发明的多天线时分双工系统示例图,按照图中示意,基站为4根天线,移动台则有6根天线。图2是上行和下行的发射时段分配示意图。参考图2,如果采用时分双工方式,在一个发射周期内,可以分上行发射时段和下行发射时段.基站在下行发射时段的某个固定时间内,发射公共导频.在这一时间段内,基站不发射其他数据信号,不同发射天线可以采用码分方式,发射不同码扩频的导频,便于移动台测量不同的信道。FIG. 1 is an example diagram of a multi-antenna time division duplex system applying the present invention. According to the illustration in the figure, the base station has 4 antennas, and the mobile station has 6 antennas. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of uplink and downlink transmission time allocation. Referring to Figure 2, if the time division duplex method is adopted, within a transmission period, it can be divided into uplink transmission period and downlink transmission period. The base station transmits common pilots within a certain fixed time of the downlink transmission period. During this time period , the base station does not transmit other data signals, and different transmitting antennas can use code division to transmit pilots spread with different codes, which is convenient for the mobile station to measure different channels.

按照图1的设置,基站的4根天线,在下行发射时段的公共导频时间片内,发射不同码的导频信号。移动台的6根接收天线则依据这些导频信号,估计出不同的信道,在这里一共有24个信道,以矩阵的形式表示为:According to the setting in Fig. 1, the four antennas of the base station transmit pilot signals of different codes in the common pilot time slice of the downlink transmission period. The six receiving antennas of the mobile station estimate different channels based on these pilot signals. There are a total of 24 channels here, expressed in the form of a matrix:

Hh == hh 1111 hh 1212 hh 1313 hh 1414 hh 21twenty one hh 22twenty two hh 23twenty three hh 24twenty four hh 3131 hh 3232 hh 3333 hh 3434 hh 4141 hh 4242 hh 4343 hh 4444 hh 5151 hh 5252 hh 5353 hh 5454 hh 6161 hh 6262 hh 6363 hh 6464 -- -- -- (( 44 )) ;;

其中,hij代表第j根基站天线的发射信号到达第i根移动台天线所经历的信道。由于采用时分双工方式,在下一个发射周期内的上行发射时段内,第i根移动台天线的发射信号到达第j根基站天线时所经历的信道也大致为hij。基于这一现象,移动台在下一个发射周期的上行发射时段内,可以依据(4)中的信道估计结果,选择上行发射所用的天线。根据信道条件的情况以及要传输的数据的多少,选择一根发射天线,或者多根发射天线。假设移动台需要选择两根发射天线,则移动台选择天线的原则可以是所有发射天线信号在该天线上接收能量之和最大的原则,在(4)所表达的信道中,则计算矩阵每一行元素的幅值平方和,∑j|hij|2,1≤i≤6,选择使得这一平方和最大的i所对应的天线作为发射天线。假设移动台选择了第一和第三根天线向基站发射信号,即上面的平方和计算公式中,i=1,3,则移动台可以将数据分别送至这两根天线上进行发射。此外,移动台也根据(4)中的信道,选择基站下次发射应该采用的发射天线,选择的原则可以是该发射天线在移动台的所有接收天线上的接收信号能量之和最大的原则,即移动台计算(4)的矩阵中每一列的各元素幅值平方和,∑i|hij|2,1≤j≤4,假设该公式当j=1时得到最大值,即Among them, h ij represents the channel through which the transmitted signal of the j-th base station antenna reaches the i-th mobile station antenna. Due to the use of time division duplexing, in the uplink transmission period in the next transmission cycle, the channel experienced by the transmission signal of the i-th mobile station antenna when it reaches the j-th base station antenna is roughly h ij . Based on this phenomenon, the mobile station can select the antenna used for uplink transmission according to the channel estimation result in (4) during the uplink transmission period of the next transmission cycle. According to the channel conditions and the amount of data to be transmitted, select one transmitting antenna or multiple transmitting antennas. Assuming that the mobile station needs to select two transmitting antennas, the principle for the mobile station to select the antenna can be the principle that the sum of the received energy of all transmitting antenna signals on the antenna is the largest. In the channel expressed in (4), each row of the calculation matrix The sum of the squares of the amplitudes of the elements, ∑ j |h ij | 2 , 1≤i≤6, select the antenna corresponding to i that makes this sum of squares the largest as the transmitting antenna. Assuming that the mobile station selects the first and third antennas to transmit signals to the base station, that is, in the above sum of squares calculation formula, i=1, 3, then the mobile station can send data to the two antennas for transmission. In addition, the mobile station also selects the transmit antenna that the base station should use for the next transmission according to the channel in (4). The selection principle can be the principle that the sum of the received signal energy of the transmit antenna on all the receive antennas of the mobile station is the largest. That is, the mobile station calculates the sum of the squares of the amplitudes of each element in each column of the matrix in (4), ∑ i |h ij | 2 , 1≤j≤4, assuming that the formula obtains the maximum value when j=1, namely

   |h11|2+|h21|2+|h31|2+|h41|2+|h51|2+|h61|2 |h 11 | 2 +|h 21 | 2 +|h 31 | 2 +|h 41 | 2 +|h 51 | 2 +|h 61 | 2

最大,则移动台可以通知基站在下行发射时段内采用天线1进行发射。基站同时利用4根天线接收信号,同时从移动台获得在该发射周期的下行发射时段内,应该采用哪一根或哪几根天线为该移动台发射信号。通过上述过程的循环执行,最终实现基站与移动台之间的高速数据通信。maximum, the mobile station can notify the base station to use antenna 1 to transmit within the downlink transmission period. The base station uses four antennas to receive signals at the same time, and at the same time obtains from the mobile station which antenna or antennas should be used to transmit signals for the mobile station during the downlink transmission period of the transmission cycle. Through the cyclic execution of the above process, the high-speed data communication between the base station and the mobile station is finally realized.

在上述通信过程中,假设移动台测量得知,基站的第一根天线和第二根天线存在强相关,可以实现智能天线的定向发射,则当基站从移动台获知,在下行发射时段内需要采用这两根天线之一进行信号发射时,也可以同时选择两根天线发射同样信号,通过不同的加权,实现下行的定向发射。In the above communication process, assuming that the mobile station has measured and learned that there is a strong correlation between the first antenna and the second antenna of the base station, and the directional transmission of the smart antenna can be realized, then when the base station learns from the mobile station that the downlink transmission period requires When one of the two antennas is used for signal transmission, two antennas can also be selected to transmit the same signal at the same time, and the downlink directional transmission can be realized through different weighting.
