In frequency domain CDM, before transmitting identical sequence, different user multiply by identical sequence the multiple sine wave with out of phase slope.At this moment, use multiple sine wave but not the reason of Hadamard matrix is to guarantee by the signal processing at receiver place the orthogonality between the user.Because it is identical with cyclic shift in the time domain any sequence to be multiply by multiple sine wave with the phase place that increases along with frequency linearity in frequency domain, be called as that cyclic shift is handled or the circulation delay processing so be used to multiply by the processing of multiple sine wave.

Can be by the function of frequency difference between the subcarrier and the expansion of the delay in the propagation channel, the user's that provide when using frequency domain CDM, in an OFDM code element, can permit simultaneously number.At this moment, the granularity of each user's cyclic shift is set to larger than the delay expansion in the propagation channel.In cellular communication environment, owing to be difficult to estimate maximum delay spread, so the value of maximum delay spread at random is set.Correspondingly, the channel delay spread of Any user can be greater than the cyclic shift in the cellular communication environment, and therefore the interference between the user may take place.

Fig. 3 shows the schematic block diagram of the receiving equipment in the base station of first example embodiment according to the present invention, and Fig. 4 shows the schematic block diagram that CDM in the receiving equipment of Fig. 3 removes mapper.Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of the method that is used to extract desired subscriber signal, and Fig. 6 shows the signal that the CDM by Fig. 4 goes mapper to extract.

As shown in Figure 3, receiving equipment comprises: RF receiver 210, analog to digital converter 220, CP remover 230, deserializer 240, fast fourier transformer (FFT) 250 and CDM remove mapper 260.

RF receiver 210 comes to receive K subscriber signal from K terminal by reception antenna 270, and this K subscriber signal is converted to baseband signal.Analog to digital converter 220 is converted to the digital received signal with this baseband signal.CP remover 230 is removed CP from this digital received signal, and deserializer 240 will to have removed the digital received conversion of signals of CP be the parallel receive signal.FFT 250 is the frequency domain received signal by carrying out fast fourier transform with this parallel receive signal transformation.CDM goes the CDM sequence of mapper 260 by the delivery time of use user #k (wherein k is to the interior numeral of (K-1) scope from 0)

Come according to frequency domain received signal estimate vector At this moment, provide this vector by the transmission code element of user #k and the product of channel vector.

Can be with frequency domain received signal X by FFT 250 conversion _nBe expressed as equation 3.

Equation 3

Here,

The operation that expression be multiply by each element of another vector with each element of a vector, Expression is corresponding to the channel value of j subcarrier.

As shown in Figure 4, CDM goes mapper 260 to comprise: basic sequence descrambler 261, contrary discrete Fourier transform (DFT) (IDFT) 262, time delay domain extractor 263 and discrete Fourier transformer (DFT) 264.

With reference to figure 5, basic sequence descrambler 261 passes through as equation 4 expressedly with frequency domain received signal X _nEach element multiply by conjugation basic sequence c ₀Each unit usually basic sequence is carried out descrambling (step S21).

Equation 4

${\stackrel{\‾}{Y}}_n={\stackrel{\‾}{X}}_n\⊗{{\stackrel{\‾}{c}}_0}^{*}$

Here, Y _nThe output of expression basic sequence descrambler 261.

IDFT 262 is by carrying out the output Y of contrary discrete Fourier transform (DFT) with basic sequence descrambler 261 _nBe transformed to time delay domain signal g _n(step S22).Suppose, to the CDM of user #k sequence numbering i _n(k) distributed " k " and in identical time domain, transmitted K subscriber signal by same frequency.So, as shown in Figure 6, the channel latency profile (profile) of K subscriber signal appears at time delay domain signal g _nIn, and the time delay between two neighboring user is Δ τ.Time delay domain extractor 262 is extracted in delivery time #n to the territory that user #k distributes, and the data in the territory of being extracted are moved to initial point, with the time delay domain signal of output user #k

(step S23).DFT 264 is by carrying out discrete Fourier transform (DFT), with the time delay domain signal of user #k

Be transformed to desired subscriber signal (that is the signal of user #k) (step S24).

Next, will the influence of the multipath of the user with channel delay spread for other users be described with reference to figure 7 and Fig. 8.

Fig. 7 shows when using general CDM sequence, according to the time delay domain signal of the process of time, and Fig. 8 shows according to the present invention first example embodiment when the CDM sequence is carried out frequency hopping, according to the time delay domain signal of the process of time.

With reference to figure 7, the multipath with user #0 of channel delay spread has influence to the interval of user #1, makes and may disturb between the user.If in detection reference signal, occur disturbing, then the channel estimating performance deterioration of user #1.Particularly, when user #0 has bigger received power than user #1, the channel estimating performance variation.In the case, if even the elapsed time, also distribute identical CDM sequence continuously, then at time delay domain signal g to same subscriber ₀-g _N-1In, the multipath of user #0 has influence continuously for the interval of user #1, makes the continuous deterioration of channel estimating performance of user #1.

As shown in Figure 8, according to first example embodiment of the present invention,, make to have changed user adjacent one another are in the time delay domain signal along with the time changes each user's CDM sequence.As a result, the interference between can the randomization user.That is, at time delay domain signal g ₀The multipath of middle user #0 is influential for the interval of user #1, but at time delay domain signal g ₁And g _N-1In influential for the interval of user #2 and user #3 respectively.Correspondingly, the multipath of user #0 is not a user's of deterioration a channel estimating performance only, but a plurality of users' of deterioration channel estimating performance randomly.

Next, reference table 1 and table 2 are described the method that is used for distributing to the user different CDM sequences along with the time.Table 1 and table 2 show the CDM sequence allocating method of first example embodiment according to the present invention.

Table 1

	i 0	i 1	...	i N-1
					User #0	m 0(0)	m 0(1)	...	m 0(N-1)
User #1	m 1(0)	m 1(1)	...	m 1(N-1)
					...	...	...	...	...
User # (K-1)	m K-1(0)	m K-1(1)	m K-1(N-1)	m K-1(N-1)

Here, i _nThe CDM sequence numbering of expression delivery time #n, and m _k(n) expression is by the cyclic shift value of user #k in the transmission of delivery time #n place.Expressed as equation 5, m _k(n) have from 0 arbitrary cyclic shift value to (K-1).

Equation 5

$\∀n,m_k\left(n\right)\∈\{\mathrm{0,1,2},...,K-1\},0\≤k\≤K-1$

For the interference between the randomization user, two different users use different CDM sequences in a time domain.In addition, when two users used adjacent C DM sequence in a time domain, two users used CDM sequence not adjacent to each other.Shown in the example of table 2, different cyclic shift value are distributed to different user with terminal in the base station in a time domain, along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to described cyclic shift value, and the cyclic shift value after the user distributes frequency hopping.Then, along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to the CDM sequence.The frequency hopping pattern of cyclic shift is set, makes two users that in a time domain, used the adjacent cyclic shifted value in another time domain, use cyclic shift value not adjacent to each other.For example, when each user's frequency hopping pattern was set as shown in table 2ly, the cyclic shift value of user #0 and user #1 was adjacent one another are at delivery time #0 place, but the cyclic shift value of user #0 and user #1 is not adjacent to each other.

Table 2

	i 0	i 1
			User #0	0	3
User #1	1	5
			User #2	2	2
User #3	3	0
			User #4	4	4
User #5	5	1

The cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern is a pattern predetermined between base station and terminal.To the information of terminal notice about the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern, and terminal and base station can be stored the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern respectively when initial the access in the base station.In communication system, the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern can be set by the upstream node of base station or base station.That is, base station or upstream node can be provided with CDM sequence and cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern thereof for a plurality of users.

Next, will example embodiment that use the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern of first example embodiment according to the present invention to detection reference signal and ACK/NACK channel respectively be described with reference to figure 9 and Figure 10.

Fig. 9 shows the transfer structure of the detection reference signal of second example embodiment according to the present invention, and Figure 10 shows the transfer structure of the ACK/NACK channel of the 3rd example embodiment according to the present invention.

As shown in Figure 9, all users transmit detection reference signal by identical frequency range in identical time domain.Because detection reference signal uses the CDM sequence of the cyclic shift of having used table 1

So, distribute different CDM sequences to different user, thus identifying user.After each user's the characteristic of channel had been estimated by the use detection reference signal in the base station, the base station had the frequency range of the outstanding characteristic of channel to each user notification.Then, the user can transmit data by the frequency range by the base station notice.In addition, each user's received power can be measured by using detection reference signal in the base station, and estimates each user's timing error.

Therebetween, because the user can move in wireless communication system, so as shown in Figure 9, terminal periodic ground transmits detection reference signal.Then, the characteristic of channel can periodically be estimated by using detection reference signal in the base station.Described as reference table 1 and table 2, when periodically transmitting detection reference signal, base station and terminal be along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to cyclic shift value, makes interference between the randomization user.

With reference to Figure 10, the CDM sequence is used for reference signal (for example, pilot signal) and according to the ack/nack signal in the transfer structure of the 3rd example embodiment.That is, three OFDM code elements are used for reference signal, and four OFDM code elements are used for transmitting seven OFDM code elements and N _fACK/NACK code element in the structure of individual subcarrier.

Delivery time of reference signal the place CDM to go the output of mapper (260 among Fig. 2) be the channel estimating at place of corresponding delivery time

And the CDM at the delivery time of ACK/NACK place to go the output of mapper be ACK/NACK code element s ^(k)The product of channel estimating with corresponding delivery time place $y_n=s^{\left(k\right)}\widehat{{\stackrel{\‾}{H}}_n^{\left(k\right)}},n=\mathrm{0,2,4,6}.$ Then, the receiver of base station utilizes described channel estimating to go the output of mapper 260 to compensate to CDM, and obtains estimation for the ACK/NACK code element by the output after the compensation is sued for peace as equation 6 expressedly.

Equation 6

$\hat{s}=\frac{1}{4}\underset{j=0}{\overset{3}{\mathrm{\Σ}}}{y}_{2j}{\left(\widehat{{\stackrel{\‾}{H}}_{2j}^{\left(k\right)}}\right)}^{*}$

As shown in figure 10, base station and terminal can be by coming sequentially to distribute the CDM sequence to reference signal and ack/nack signal according to the order of delivery time, and use a cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern.Replacedly, base station and the terminal cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern that can be used for reference signal is set to be different from the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern of ack/nack signal.As another alternative, any one application cycle displacement frequency hopping pattern that base station and terminal can be in reference signal and ack/nack signals.

Although four code elements having described in Figure 10 such as the ACK/NACK code element transmit same symbol s ^(k), but the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern of first example embodiment can be applied to CQI (CQI) channel according to the present invention.When terminal when downlink channel information is transmitted in the base station, use the CQI channel.In the CQI channel, can transmit different code elements by all data blocks (that is OFDM code element) except reference signal.

As mentioned above, although in first to the 3rd example embodiment of the present invention, described K cyclic shift value be used for K user, but also can distribute K the cyclic shift value of from more than K cyclic shift value, extracting, and along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to it to K user.

In addition, base station and terminal can change the number of cyclic shift value according to cell environment or cell load, and below will describe this example embodiment.

In the 4th example embodiment of the present invention, the whole sequence that base station and terminal will be used for cyclic shift value is categorized as a plurality of groups, and the lowest difference between every group the cyclic shift value is set to greater than 1.For example, base station and terminal can be divided into all sequences of equation 5 two groups expressed as equation 7.Then, when the number of the cyclic shift value of using in the sub-district was less than or equal to (K/2), base station and terminal utilized first group sequence that cyclic shift value is set, and along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to described cyclic shift value.Because first group has the even number cyclic shift value, so the lowest difference between the cyclic shift value is 2.When the number of the cyclic shift value of using in the sub-district during greater than (K/2), base station and terminal utilize first and second groups sequence that cyclic shift value is set, and along with the time is carried out frequency hopping to described cyclic shift value.In the case, the lowest difference between the cyclic shift value is 1.

Equation 7

$\∀n,m_k\left(n\right)\∈\{\mathrm{0,2,4},...,K-1\},0\≤k\≤K/2-1$

$\∀n,m_k\left(n\right)\∈\{\mathrm{1,3,5},...,K-2\},K/2\≤k\≤K-1$

According to the 4th example embodiment, when according to time and a small amount of sequence of cell environment needs, distributing cyclic shift value the big group of the lowest difference between sequence makes and reduces interference between the user.

When the expansion of the time delay of radio channel according to the surrounding environment of sub-district and not simultaneously, under the situation of long time delay expansion, can be from (K/2) individual sequence of first group the distributing cyclic shift value; And hour prolonging under the situation of expansion, can be from K sequence the distributing cyclic shift value.

Figure 11 shows the figure that is used to explain the interference between the sub-district.

When first user 311 with the sub-district #0 of first base station 312 as home cell and second user 321 during as home cell, can receive the signal that is transmitted by second user with the sub-district #1 of second base station 322 in the #0 of sub-district.In the case, if first and second users have identical cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern, two users' that then can conflict continuously CDM sequence.Correspondingly, according to the present invention the base station of the 5th example embodiment and terminal shown in equation 8, table 3 and table 4, the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern is set based on the sub-district under the user.

Equation 8

i _n＝[m _k(n)+H _c(n)]％K

Here, H _c(n) be illustrated in the cell code value that delivery time #n place distributes to sub-district #c, K represents user's maximum number, and % represents modulo operation.

				...	...	...	...
User # (K-1)	[m K-1(0)+H 0(0)]％K	...	[m K-1(N-1)+H 0(N-1)]％K

				...	...	...	...
User # (K-1)	[m K-1(0)+H 1(0)]％K	...	[m K-1(N-1)+H 1(N-1)]％K

According to the 5th example embodiment, even the user #k of the user #k of sub-district #0 and sub-district #1 uses identical m _k(n), because sub-district #0 and sub-district #1 have the different districts code, so two users also use different cyclic shift value.Correspondingly, locate to use different CDM sequences in the identical delivery time owing to belong to the user of different districts, so prevented the interference between the sub-district.

In first to the 5th example embodiment of the present invention, the fixing and frequency hopping cyclic shift of basic sequence has been described so that the CDM sequence is carried out frequency hopping.Yet, in the frequency hopping cyclic shift, can change basic sequence, the feasible interference that reduces between the sub-district along with the time.

In addition, the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern of example embodiment can be applied to wherein that the user is positioned at the situation of different districts or sector according to the present invention, as is used for the reference signal of data channel of the coherent demodulation of data channel.To this example embodiment be described with reference to Figure 12 and Figure 13.

Figure 12 shows the example that is used in the method for the reference signal of cellular environment arranging data channel, and Figure 13 shows the example that the data of two sectors that are arranged in the same base place transmit.Figure 12 illustrates seven base stations in order to describe easily.

As shown in figure 12, different basic sequences is used in seven base stations, that is, and and basic sequence numbering u _nEach base station comprises three sectors, and use by utilizing different value to come identical basic sequence is carried out the sequence that cyclic shift obtains described three sectors.Distribute two different cyclic shift value although figure 12 illustrates, also can distribute a cyclic shift value to each sector to each sector.

With reference to Figure 13, user #1 transmits data in sectors, and distinguishes other users in user #1 and the sectors by frequency.Transmit data with subframe unit, and in each subframe twice transmission for the public reference signal of all users of sectors.User #2 transmits data in the β of sector, and the data transfer structure of sector β is similar to sectors.At this moment, as shown in figure 13, the interference between the user in sector does not exist.Yet the user #1 of sectors uses identical time/frequency resource with the user #2 of sector β, and use respectively utilize different value come to identical basic sequence carry out cyclic shift and the sequence that obtains as the reference signal.Here, when the time delay in the channel was big, the interference between the user may exist.Correspondingly, the 6th example embodiment of the present invention is by coming the interference between the randomization user along with time change cyclic shift value.At this moment, can be along with the time changes basic sequence.

Table 5 shows the example about the cyclic shift frequency hopping pattern and the basic sequence frequency hopping pattern of the reference signal of data channel.Reference table 5 as long as transmit reference signal, just changes basic sequence numbering u _nAnd cyclic shift, i.e. CDM sequence numbering i _n
