Embodiment mono-
Refer to Fig. 1, the method flow diagram of its MIMO intra-mode handover method that is a kind of up channel of the present invention, the method is applied in the situation that be used alternatingly alone family MIMO mode SU-MIMO in the up channel of advanced long-term evolution system LTE-A and multi-user's MIMO mode MU-MIMO carries out transfer of data, comprise the following steps:
S101: obtain the order indication RI reporting;
S102: obtain the modulation coding mode MCS under the current RI of up channel;
The general up modulation coding mode that obtains correspondence that calculates according to the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, sinr) of the current up channel collecting, the method for obtaining belongs to prior art, repeats no more here.
S103: table look-up and obtain the bit number of each transport block transmission according to described MCS;
S104: calculate the current spectrum efficiency of up channel according to described bit number;
That is to say, the spectrum efficiency of determining can be according to the variation of current MCS and respective change, and can not look like a fixing value of the prior art, this according to the change of work at present parameter and the mode of corresponding adjustment spectrum efficiency has improved the adaptability of technical solution of the present invention greatly.
S105: while using MU-MIMO pattern as current up channel, if current spectrum efficiency is less than spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI equals 1, switches to SU-MIMO pattern at up channel and carry out transfer of data;
SU-MIMO pattern specifically refers to that LTE-A system will support up channel to adopt the configuration of 2 or 4 transmit antennas.
S106: while using SU-MIMO pattern as current up channel, if current spectrum efficiency is greater than the value of spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI equals 1 and current RI while being more than or equal to 1.5, switches to MU-MIMO pattern at up channel and carry out transfer of data.
And in the transmission of MU-MIMO pattern, LTE-A system sends to different users by a plurality of data flow in identical time/frequency resource, be that transmission between multi-user is mutually independently, and can share identical up time/frequency resource, the user that base station sends two single antenna according to the characteristic of space channel matches, be assigned in identical frequency resource, by transmit data for a plurality of users simultaneously, improved power system capacity.At this moment terminal is as transmitting terminal, and LTE-A system is as receiving terminal.In LTE-A system, uplink transmission mode 2 is supported the alone family transmission of maximum two streams, therefore can realize the dynamic switching of the multithread transmission of alone family and multi-user transmission.
That is to say, as long as when the value of RI equals 2, if current spectrum efficiency is less than spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI equals 1, if the current use of up channel is SU-MIMO pattern, keep, if current use is MU-MIMO pattern, be switched to SU-MIMO pattern.In like manner, as long as when the value of RI equals 1, if current spectrum efficiency is greater than spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI equals 1, keeps or be switched to MU-MIMO pattern.Certainly, determine to use the condition of a certain MIMO pattern, except RI need to meet certain numerical value, also have some other Rule of judgment, but owing to not relating to the claimed technical scheme of the present invention, therefore only doing below brief description, as shown in Figure 2.
MU-MIMO pattern (dicode word) is switched to the condition of SU-MIMO pattern (single codeword): (1) dicode word forbid that timer cuts out (2) if the spectrum efficiency of RI<=1.4 or dicode word lower than the spectrum efficiency (3) of single codeword if condition (2) meets, the time that dicode word is switched to the punishment timer of single codeword is set, if at punishment timer, open during this period of time in all meet (2) condition, switch, from dicode word, be switched to single codeword.After switching completes, open single codeword and forbid timer, within single codeword is forbidden time that timer opens, do not allow to switch again.
SU-MIMO pattern (single codeword) is switched to the condition of MU-MIMO pattern (dicode word): (1) single codeword forbid that timer cuts out (2) if the spectrum efficiency of RI>=1.5 and single codeword lower than the spectrum efficiency of dicode word, (3) if condition (2) meets, the time that single codeword is switched to the punishment timer of dicode word is set, if at punishment timer, open during this period of time in all meet (2) condition, switch, from single codeword, be switched to dicode word.After switching completes, open dicode word and forbid timer, within time that timer opens forbidden in dicode word, do not allow to switch again.
At the up channel of LTE-A system, when using SU-MIMO pattern or MU-MIMO pattern to carry out transfer of data, need further to calculate the scheduling metric of the UE that participates in transfer of data, so that enter the distribution of PRB when carrying out frequency domain dispatching.Calculate UE scheduling metric flow process as shown in Figure 3:
S301: obtain primary user's equipment UE;
S302: according to the service bearer ability of subband spectrum efficiency and main UE, calculate the scheduling metric of main UE;
In the subband spectrum efficiency here and step S104, determined spectrum efficiency has certain proportion relation, general relevant with the number of subband.
S303: be described main UE distribute data resource according to described scheduling metric.
For step, S302 it should be noted that, the method of calculating the scheduling metric of UE has multiple, but in prior art, do not have any account form both to consider the service bearer ability of UE, also consider the spectrum efficiency of up channel, below, will the improvement of max carrier to interference algorithm MaxC/I and equitable proportion algorithm PF be described mainly for technical solution of the present invention:
Use the max carrier to interference algorithm MaxC/I after improving, according to the service bearer capacity calculation scheduling metric of subband spectrum efficiency and main UE;
Described max carrier to interference algorithm calculates scheduling metric:
w
sch=w
ue-QoS*w
sb-se
Wherein, w
ue-QoSbe the service bearer ability of main UE, w
sb-sefor subband spectrum efficiency.
Use the equitable proportion algorithm PF after improving, according to the service bearer capacity calculation scheduling metric of subband spectrum efficiency and main UE;
Described equitable proportion algorithm calculates scheduling metric:
w
sch=w
ue-QoS*w
sb-se/w
ue-th
Wherein, w
ue-QoSbe the service bearer ability of main UE, w
sb-sefor subband spectrum efficiency, w
ue-thbe the service bearer amount of main UE to realize.
Visible, service bearer amount and the subband spectrum efficiency of considering UE all can exert an influence to scheduling metric, thus when scheduling metric, using service bearer amount and subband spectrum efficiency all as computing reference, improve existing max carrier to interference algorithm MaxC/I or equitable proportion algorithm PF, improved thus the accuracy of the scheduling metric obtaining.
For step, S303 it should be noted that, up channel from time domain scheduling proceed to frequency domain dispatching, the resource distribution of PRB will be started to carry out, and the Main Basis that carries out resource distribution be exactly each UE for the size of the scheduling metric of an idle PRB, and the scheduling metric of each UE obtains by the account form after improving in step S302 just.The calculating of scheduling metric, whether accurately on distributing the accuracy of idle PRB also to have direct impact, has been equivalent to further improve the accuracy of distributing PRB therefore the precision of scheduling metric is obtained in raising.Concrete allocation flow is as shown in Figure 4:
S401: obtain each main UE corresponding to the scheduling metric of an idle Physical Resource Block PRB;
S402: the main UE that described idle Physical Resource Block is distributed to the scheduling metric maximum of corresponding described PRB.
Actual divide timing also to need to consider some other factors carrying out resource, owing to not being that technical solution of the present invention is related, therefore will simply the process of concrete distribution PRB be described below.
Divide timing carrying out resource, need first to UE, to distribute control channel element (Control Channel Element, CCE), fruit is distributed CCE failure, and this UE is just under MU-MIMO pattern, this UE with and pairing UE use separately the space division multiplexing of one deck closed loop to redistribute resource.The preferential concrete execution mode of uplink resource allocating method of maximum scheduling metric is: obtain available free PRB, available free PRB is divided into a plurality of subbands (subband size is identical), because the spectrum efficiency of corresponding each subband of different UEs is different, therefore each UE correspondence is also different at the scheduling metric of each subband, each subband is descending according to corresponding metric, UE is sorted, this allocation of subbands is given UE that should subband metric maximum.Every group of PRB may be comprised of a plurality of subbands, needs to calculate the summation of the scheduling metric of these subbands that each UE correspondence comprises in this group PRB, and the summation of the scheduling metric of which UE is greatly just distributed to this UE this group PRB.If the PRB of two groups calculates the scheduling metric summation of each UE that the PRB of two groups is corresponding, two groups of PRB are distributed to the UE of metric maximum.
From the present embodiment, can find out, according to the modulation coding mode of Real-time Collection up channel, calculate corresponding spectrum efficiency, this mode of obtaining spectrum efficiency is more accurate, and can be according to the corresponding result of calculation of adjusting spectrum efficiency of the value of the MCS under actual operational environment, make thus according to the spectrum efficiency of obtaining in this way determine switch MIMO pattern time point more accurately and can the adjustment of correspondence along with the variation of the value of MCS lower in work at present environment.
