每个时域数据段的长度 Ρ为一根接收天线在一个接收周期内接收的时 域数据的长度与 β之和。 The length of each time domain data segment is the sum of the length of the time domain data received by a receiving antenna in one receiving cycle and β.
根据 LTE协议规定每根接收天线的一个接收周期为 5ms,如图 2所示, TD-LTE 系统中, 接收周期内的时域数据长度与 LTE 系统的带宽有关, 例 如, 在 20MHz的带宽条件下, 一根在每个接收周期内均接收 153600个时 域数据。 According to the LTE protocol, one receiving period of each receiving antenna is 5 ms. As shown in FIG. 2, in the TD-LTE system, the time domain data length in the receiving period is related to the bandwidth of the LTE system, for example. For example, under a bandwidth of 20 MHz, one receives 153,600 time domain data in each reception cycle.
步驟 102中, 时域数据分成 N个等长度 P的时域数据段可以参见图 3。 如图 3所示, 将每根接收天线对应的时域数据分成 N个等长度 P的时域数 据段, 不是平均分段。 分段时, 接收天线对应的第一时域数据段长度为 P, 第二时域数据段的长度 P是从第一时域数据段中的第(P-(2 )个时域数据开 始计算, 即从第一时域数据段中最后 β个时域数据作为第二时域数据段中 的前! 2个时域数据, 依次划分; 时域数据的总长度为一定值, 每相邻两端 时域数据共用 β个时域数据。 In step 102, the time domain data is divided into N time-domain data segments of equal length P. See Figure 3. As shown in FIG. 3, the time domain data corresponding to each receiving antenna is divided into N time-domain data segments of equal length P, which are not average segments. In the segmentation, the length of the first time domain data segment corresponding to the receiving antenna is P, and the length P of the second time domain data segment is calculated from the (P-(2) time domain data in the first time domain data segment. , that is, the last β time domain data in the first time domain data segment is used as the first! 2 time domain data in the second time domain data segment, and is sequentially divided; the total length of the time domain data is a certain value, and each adjacent two The end time domain data shares β time domain data.
较佳地, 步驟 101和步驟 102之间还可以进一步包括: Preferably, step 101 and step 102 may further include:
分别将每根接收天线对应的时域数据进行低通滤波处理 (比如可以采 用截止频率为 1.08MHz的低通滤波器进行滤波处理),获得对应频率位置上 的时域数据; 及 The time domain data corresponding to each receiving antenna is subjected to low-pass filtering processing (for example, a low-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 1.08 MHz may be used for filtering) to obtain time domain data at a corresponding frequency position;
针对一根接收天线, 从进行低通滤波处理后时域数据中截取 K个时域 数据作为需要进行分段处理的时域数据(每根天线对应的时域数据都需要 这么处理); For one receiving antenna, K time domain data is intercepted from the time domain data after low-pass filtering processing as time domain data that needs to be segmented (the time domain data corresponding to each antenna needs to be processed as such);
其中, K = K N + Q 为一根接收天线在一个接收周期内接收的 时域数据长度。 Where K = K N + Q is the length of the time domain data received by a receiving antenna in one receive cycle.
相应的, 步驟 102中采用截取后的时域数据进行分段处理。 Correspondingly, in step 102, the truncated time domain data is used for segmentation processing.
较佳地, 为了进一步提高处理效率, 还可以分别对截取后的时域数据 和每个时域 PSS进行下采样。 具体的: Preferably, in order to further improve the processing efficiency, the intercepted time domain data and each time domain PSS may be separately sampled. specific:
截取 个时域数据之后, 且在将时域数据分成 N段之前, 对截取的时 域数据进行下采样, 得到需要进行分段处理的时域数据, 其中相邻两个采 样数据之间间隔 F个时域数据, 1 < ¥ < K, 且 F为正整数; 具体 F值的大小 是经验值, 可以根据需要或通过仿真设定。 相应的, 步驟 102中采用下采样后的时域数据进行分段处理。 After the time domain data is intercepted, and the time domain data is divided into N segments, the intercepted time domain data is downsampled to obtain time domain data that needs to be segmented, wherein the interval between adjacent two sampled data is F. Time domain data, 1 < ¥ < K, and F is a positive integer; the size of the specific F value is an empirical value, which can be set as needed or through simulation. Correspondingly, in step 102, the down-sampled time domain data is used for segmentation processing.

对每个时域 PSS进行下采样, 作为需要进行滑动处理的时域 PSS, 其 中相邻两个采样数据之间间隔 F个时域数据, 1<F<K, 且 F为正整数; 其中, 对截取的时域数据进行下采样中的 F与对每个时域 PSS进行下 采样中的 F的数值相同。 也就是说, 对截取的时域数据和每个时域 PSS进 行下采样时, 首先确定起始采样点, 然后每隔 F个数据再采一个数据。 Each time domain PSS is downsampled as a time domain PSS that needs to be subjected to sliding processing, wherein F time domain data is separated between adjacent two sample data, 1<F<K, and F is a positive integer; The F in the downsampling of the intercepted time domain data is the same as the value of F in the downsampling of each time domain PSS. That is to say, when the intercepted time domain data and each time domain PSS are downsampled, the initial sampling point is first determined, and then one data is taken every F data.
由于本实施例中对时域数据及时域 PSS进行了下采样处理, 可大大提 高滑动相关处理的效率, 从而有效降低了小区搜索时间。 Since the time domain data and the time domain PSS are downsampled in this embodiment, the efficiency of the sliding correlation processing can be greatly improved, thereby effectively reducing the cell search time.
