Embodiment one
Referring to Fig. 1, it is the method for MIMO mode switching method inside of a kind of up channel of the present invention
Flow chart, the method is applied to list is used alternatingly in the up channel of advanced long-term evolution system LTE-A
User MIMO mode SU-MIMO and multi-user MIMO mode MU-MIMO carries out data biography
In the case of defeated, comprise the following steps:
S101: obtain the order instruction RI reported;
S102: obtain the modulation coding mode MCS under the current RI of up channel;
It is typically based on Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (the Signal to Interference plus of the current up channel collected
Noise Ratio, sinr) calculate the up modulation coding mode obtaining correspondence, the method for acquisition belongs to existing
Technology, repeats no more here.
S103: table look-up according to described MCS and obtain the bit number of each transport block transmission;
S104: calculate the spectrum efficiency that up channel is current according to described number of bits;
It is to say, the spectrum efficiency determined can according to the change of current MCS respective change, and
This will not adjust accordingly according to the change of current operating parameters as a fixing value of the prior art
The mode of whole spectrum efficiency substantially increases the adaptability of technical solution of the present invention.
S105: when using MU-MIMO pattern such as current up channel, if current spectral efficiency is less than
The spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI is equal to 1, switches to SU-MIMO pattern to carry out at up channel
Data are transmitted;
SU-MIMO pattern specifically refers to lte-a system will support that up channel uses 2 or 4
Launch the configuration of antenna.
S106: when using SU-MIMO pattern such as current up channel, if current spectral efficiency is more than
When the value of the spectrum efficiency corresponding when the value of RI is equal to 1 and current RI is more than or equal to 1.5, at up letter
Road switches to MU-MIMO pattern to carry out data transmission.
And in the transmission of MU-MIMO pattern, lte-a system by time identical/many numbers in resource frequently
The transmission being sent between different users, i.e. multi-user according to stream is the most independent, and can share
Identical up time/resource frequently, the user that two single antenna send is entered by base station according to the characteristic of space channel
Row pairing, assigns it in identical frequency resource, improves by transmitting data for multiple users simultaneously
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 supports the single user transmission of most two streams, therefore can realize single user and spread more
The defeated switching at runtime with multi-user transmission.
As long as it is to say, when the value of RI is equal to 2, if current spectral efficiency is less than when the value of RI
Spectrum efficiency corresponding during equal to 1, if up channel currently used be SU-MIMO pattern, then
Keep, if currently used is MU-MIMO pattern, be then switched to SU-MIMO pattern.In like manner,
As long as when the value of RI is equal to 1, if current spectral efficiency is corresponding more than when the value of RI is equal to 1
Spectrum efficiency, then keep or be switched to MU-MIMO pattern.Certainly, determine to use a certain MIMO
The condition of pattern, in addition to RI needs to meet certain numerical value, also has some other Rule of judgment, but
It is owing to being not related to the claimed technical scheme of the present invention, therefore is only described briefly following, such as Fig. 2
Shown in.
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 is less than solid size
The spectrum efficiency (3) of word if condition (2) meets, then arranges dicode word and is switched to the punishment of single codeword
The time of timer, if punishment timer open during this period of time in all meet (2) condition, then send out
Raw switching, is switched to single codeword from dicode word.After switching complete, open single codeword forbid timer,
Do not allow to switch again in single codeword forbids the time that timer is opened.
SU-MIMO pattern (single codeword) is switched to the condition of MU-MIMO pattern (dicode word): (1)
Single codeword forbid timer close (2) if RI >=1.5 and the spectrum efficiency of single codeword less than dicode
The spectrum efficiency of word, (3) if condition (2) meets, then arrange single codeword and are switched to the punishment of dicode word
The time of timer, if punishment timer open during this period of time in all meet (2) condition, then send out
Raw switching, is switched to dicode word from single codeword.After switching complete, open dicode word forbid timer,
Do not allow to switch again in the time that timer is opened forbidden in dicode word.
Up channel in lte-a system is using SU-MIMO pattern or MU-MIMO pattern to enter
During the transmission of row data, need to calculate further the scheduling metrics value of the UE participating in data transmission, in order to
Carry out entering during frequency domain dispatching the distribution of PRB.Calculate the flow process of scheduling metrics value of UE as shown in Figure 3:
S301: obtain primary user device UE;
S302: according to the service bearer ability of subband spectrum efficiency and main UE, calculate the scheduling degree of main UE
Value;
Here spectrum efficiency determined by subband spectrum efficiency and step S104 has certain proportion and closes
System is the most relevant with the number of subband.
S303: according to described scheduling metrics value be described main UE distribute data resource.
For step S302 it should be noted that the method calculating the scheduling metrics value of UE has multiple, but
It is prior art not to have any calculation both in view of the service bearer ability of UE, it is also considered that to upper
The spectrum efficiency of row channel, below, will be mainly for technical solution of the present invention to max carrier to interference algorithm
The improvement of MaxC/I and proportional fair algorithm PF illustrates:
Use the max carrier to interference algorithm MaxC/I after improving, according to subband spectrum efficiency and the industry of main UE
Business bearing capacity calculates scheduling metrics value;
Described max carrier to interference algorithm calculates scheduling metrics value:
wsch=wue-QoS*wsb-se
Wherein, wue-QoSIt is the service bearer ability of main UE, wsb-seFor subband spectrum efficiency.
Use the proportional fair algorithm PF after improving, according to subband spectrum efficiency and the service bearer of main UE
Capacity calculation scheduling metrics value;
Described proportional fair algorithm calculates scheduling metrics value:
wsch=wue-QoS*wsb-se/wue-th
Wherein, wue-QoSIt is the service bearer ability of main UE, wsb-seFor subband spectrum efficiency, wue-th
It is that main UE is with the service bearer amount realized.
Visible, it is contemplated that scheduling metric all can be produced by service bearer amount and the subband spectrum efficiency of UE
Impact, thus when scheduling metrics value, using service bearer amount and subband spectrum efficiency all as calculating reference,
Improve existing max carrier to interference algorithm MaxC/I or proportional fair algorithm PF, which thereby enhance acquisition
The accuracy of scheduling metrics value.
For step S303 it should be noted that up channel from time after domain scheduling proceeds to frequency domain dispatching,
To proceed by the resource distribution of PRB, and the Main Basis carrying out resource distribution be exactly each UE for
The size of the scheduling metrics value of one idle PRB, and the scheduling metrics value of each UE is exactly based on step
Acquired in calculation after improving in S302.The calculating of scheduling metrics value is the most accurately to the distribution free time
The accuracy of PRB also has a directly impact, thus improve obtain the precision of scheduling metrics value be equivalent to into
One step improves the accuracy of distribution PRB.Concrete allocation flow is as shown in Figure 4:
S401: obtain each main UE scheduling metrics value corresponding to a free physical Resource Block PRB;
S402: described free physical resource block assignments is given the scheduling metrics value maximum of corresponding described PRB
Main UE.
Actual also need to consider some other factors when carrying out resource distribution, owing to not being the technology of the present invention
Involved by scheme, therefore will simply the process of concrete distribution PRB be described below.
When carrying out resource distribution, need first to control channel element (Control Channel to UE distribution
Element, CCE), distribution CCE is failed for fruit, and this UE is just under MU-MIMO pattern,
Then this UE and its pairing UE is used alone one layer of closed loop space division multiplexing and redistributes resource.Maximum scheduling
The preferential uplink resource allocating method specific embodiment of metric is: obtain available free PRB,
Available free PRB is divided into multiple subband (subband size is identical), owing to different UE are corresponding every
The spectrum efficiency of individual subband is different, therefore the corresponding scheduling metrics value at each subband of each UE is also not
With, each subband is descending according to corresponding metric, is ranked up by UE, and this subband is divided
Dispensing is to should the maximum UE of subband metric.Often group PRB may be made up of multiple subbands, then need
Calculate the summation of the scheduling metrics value of these subbands that each UE correspondence comprises in this group PRB, which
The summation of the scheduling metrics value of UE just distributes to this UE this group PRB greatly.If the PRB of two groups
Then calculate the scheduling metrics value summation of each UE corresponding for PRB of two groups, two groups of PRB degree of distributing to
The UE that value is maximum.
From the present embodiment it can be seen that calculate according to the modulation coding mode of Real-time Collection up channel right
The spectrum efficiency answered, the mode of this acquisition spectrum efficiency is more accurate, and also can be according to reality
The value correspondence of the MCS under working environment adjusts the result of calculation of spectrum efficiency, so that according to by this
The spectrum efficiency that kind of mode obtains determine the time point of switching MIMO mode more accurately and also can be with
The change of the value of MCS under in current operating environment and the adjustment of correspondence.
