Figure 1 shows that the structure principle chart of the network capacity extension system in one embodiment of the invention.
In Fig. 1, empty frame inside, left side is active antenna, and active antenna comprises antenna oscillator, Digital Signal Processing controller and common radio-frequency interface.In Active Antenna Configurations, the behind of each antenna oscillator directly connects distributed miniature Transmit-Receive Unit.As shown in right side in Fig. 1, miniature Transmit-Receive Unit comprises Digital up and down convert device, digital to analog converter, analog to digital converter, power amplifier, LNA and duplexer.
As shown in Figure 1, Base Band Unit is connected with active antenna by common radio-frequency interface with network management unit, and the base band data of Base Band Unit and the network management data of network management unit are transferred to Digital Signal Processing controller by common radio-frequency interface.In network management unit, preserve the amplitude of antenna parameter and oscillator and the corresponding relation of phase place, antenna parameter comprises Downtilt, horizontal field angle, vertical lobe angle and antenna gain etc.The amplitude of antenna parameter and oscillator and the corresponding relation of phase place, such as, several oscillator forms which type of horizontal directivity pattern, height pattern according to what amplitude, Phase Stacking, and corresponding angle of declination is how many.When building a station for the first time, the Downtilt that Cover treatment regional population is corresponding, field angle and antenna gain are different.Covering area type comprises dense city, city, suburb, rural area etc.In general, city Downtilt is large, field angle is narrow, gain is little; Suburb rural angle of declination is little, lobe angular width, gain are large.Such as, after building a station in the LTE active antenna base station of 2.6GHz, the Downtilt of covering area type corresponding to dense city is 10 degree, horizontal field angle is 65 degree, vertical lobe angle is 10 degree, antenna gain is 17dBi.During the initialization of sector, network management unit sends the amplitude of the oscillator of antenna parameter and correspondence and phase place to Digital Signal Processing controller, Digital Signal Processing controller directly can obtain amplitude and the phase place of oscillator, or, amplitude and phase place is calculated according to antenna parameter, to obtain amplitude and the phase place of oscillator, the amplitude of each oscillator and phase place are sent to miniature Transmit-Receive Unit by bus.

Active antenna can carry out adjustment separately to the amplitude of each oscillator and phase place and form wave beam, to carry out MPS process.Prior art can form single wave beam or multiple wave beam, but adaptively can not carry out sector adjustment, also namely or be a sector, or is multiple sectors, remains unchanged.Like this, if be a sector, then cannot increase network capacity by being split into multiple sector; If be many sectors, even if then system idle is also cover with many sectors, resource utilization is low.
The mode that the present invention is divided by self adaptation sector, when system meets dilatation condition, carries out sector division, and can control beam position, realizes wave beam flexibly and controls, thus after the division of sector, make Radio Resource can be multiplexing, increase network capacity.When system idle then covers with single sector, relative to the mode covered with many sectors, resource utilization is high.
Below with reference to accompanying drawings, the network capacity extension system in one embodiment of the invention is described in detail.

The measuring intervals of TIME of Radio Resource load and user location distribution situation can be self-defined.The measuring intervals of TIME of Radio Resource load can be consistent with the measuring intervals of TIME of user location distribution situation, also can be inconsistent.Radio Resource load, such as, PRB(Physical Resource Block, Physical Resource Block) resource utilization, community excited user number and/or cell throughout etc.In one embodiment, the PRB resource utilization of this community measured by LTE active antenna every 1 minute.Base station utilizes OTDOA(Observed Time Difference of Arrival, observable arrives time difference) or GPS(Global Position System, global positioning system) location technology positions customer location, to obtain user location distribution situation.
Wireless network dilatation condition can customize, such as, wireless network resource utilance continue for some time be greater than wireless network resource utilance set point, community excited user number is greater than community excited user number set point and/or cell throughout is greater than cell throughout set point etc.
Digital Signal Processing controller is when Radio Resource load meets dilatation condition, and adjustment antenna parameter, and the amplitude and the phase place that obtain oscillator according to antenna parameter, to carry out sector division.
Be split into the hardware configuration of several sector and active antenna, software algorithm etc. and all have relation.Specifically, hardware configuration determines the sector number that maximum possible divides, the oscillator number in hardware configuration such as active antenna and element spacing.Because each independently oscillator can both form a wave beam, but wave beam is very wide, substantially exceeds the scope of community, and after multiple oscillator superposition, wave beam can narrow, and gain becomes large, specifically how narrow oscillator number and the element spacing depending on superposition.Generally determine to need the superposition of several oscillator according to the shape intending coverage cell.Therefore, need to consider the oscillator number in active antenna, intend the shape, antenna gain etc. of coverage cell.
The sector division that the present invention carries out comprises vertical sector division and horizontal sector division.
In one embodiment of this invention, horizontal sector divides, and be specially: when horizontal split is two sectors, half when horizontal field angle is initial sector, vertical lobe angle remains unchanged, and angle of declination is constant; According to horizontal field angle, vertical lobe angle and angle of declination, in multiple setting, select the antenna parameter mated; Amplitude and the phase place of oscillator is obtained according to antenna parameter.
In one embodiment of this invention, vertical sector divides, and is specially: measure user location distribution situation; Calculate angle of declination according to user location distribution situation, horizontal field angle remains unchanged, and vertical lobe angle and sector initialization are consistent or become smaller; According to horizontal field angle, vertical lobe angle and angle of declination, in multiple setting, select the antenna parameter mated; Amplitude and the phase place of oscillator is obtained according to antenna parameter.
In the embodiment that the division of above-mentioned vertical sector and horizontal sector are divided, according to horizontal field angle, vertical lobe angle and angle of declination, in multiple setting, select the antenna parameter mated, refer to consistent with horizontal field angle, vertical lobe angle and angle of declination in the antenna parameter preserved in network management unit or immediate parameters.Due to the corresponding relation of the amplitude and phase place that save antenna parameter and oscillator in network management unit, and, send the amplitude of the oscillator of antenna parameter and correspondence and phase place to Digital Signal Processing controller, Digital Signal Processing controller directly can obtain amplitude and the phase place of oscillator, or, after calculating according to antenna parameter, obtain amplitude and the phase place of oscillator.
In one embodiment of this invention, be vertically split into 2 sectors for the LTE active antenna of vertical many arrays to be described.But it will be understood by those skilled in the art that principle involved in the present invention and method are not limited to the vertical division of vertical many arrays LTE active antenna, also can carry out horizontal split, or carry out horizontal split and vertical division simultaneously.In addition, the present invention is also not limited to be split into 2 sectors, and the sector number of division also can more than 2.Corresponding deformation carried out accordingly and amendment, within the protection range that all should cover this claim.
When being vertically split into inside and outside two sectors, be respectively sector 1 and sector 2.Angle of declination is calculated according to user location distribution situation, horizontal directivity pattern remains unchanged, according to inside and outside sector angle of declination, and close to initialized vertical lobe angle, many groups that preserve from network management unit arrange in select immediate 2 groups of antenna parameters, and the corresponding relation of antenna parameter and amplitude and phase place is transferred to Digital Signal Processing controller by common radio-frequency interface.Digital Signal Processing controller carries out the amplitude of oscillator and the setting of phase place after obtaining amplitude and phase place, and final two sectors forming vertical division, to cover community.
Such as, there is user's difference integrated distribution in residential building and office building, when network capacity can not satisfy the demands, need to carry out vertical sector division.Calculate the angle of declination of inside and outside sector according to user location distribution situation, calculate the amplitude of each oscillator and phase place by Digital Signal Processing controller and arrange.

After base station utilizes location technology to position customer location, the distance of each user distance base station is known in base station, with the distance of user distance base station for stochastic variable, this stochastic variable is added up, draw CDF(Cumulative Distribution Function, Cumulative Distribution Function) curve.
In this embodiment, getting 50% user place radius is r.In CDF curve, transverse axis is the distance R(unit rice of user distance base station), the longitudinal axis is probability (unit percentage), and from curve, the transverse axis distance of the longitudinal axis 50% correspondence directly can find out the radius r at 50% user place.In the present embodiment, Internal and external cycle is by 50% user place radius definition, that is, r represents the radius at the user place of setting ratio.User is divided into two parts, uses two MPS process respectively.The ratio of setting 50% considers that the traffic carrying capacity of each user is uniformly distributed, and after carrying out sector division according to general user position like this, the capacity of Liang Ge community is substantially suitable.Certainly, 50% ratio can be changed, and is an exemplary illustration in the present embodiment.
Operating time increases due to user in office building, if in continuous 30 minutes, PRB resource utilization >=70%, then prepare to carry out vertical sector division.Base station side is according to intra-cell users position distribution situation, and re-start angle of declination and calculate, computing formula is as follows:
Suppose that outer sector and interior sector angle of declination are respectively α 1, α 2, then α 1 ≈ arctan (H/R), α 2 ≈ arctan (H/r).Wherein, α 1, α 2 are actually angle of declination and deduct (vertical lobe angle/2), consider that vertical lobe angle is smaller, and simplify and calculate, then remove vertical lobe angle, formula becomes about equal sign.In the present embodiment, R=300m, r=100m, H=35m, then outer sector angle of declination α 1=7 °, interior sector angle of declination α 2=19 °.
