The uplink is to amplify the indoor signal and send the indoor signal to the outdoor; while the signal is transmitted and amplified, the signal also enters a baseband, and the baseband performs frequency tracking, power control and the like according to the received signal.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 4, the relay device may further include a filter, a low noise amplifier LNA, and a power amplifier PA, and correspondingly, for detecting the RSSI of an input signal, the filtering processing and the low noise amplification processing may be performed on the input signal, and then the filtered and amplified input signal is detected by decoding a baseband chip, so as to obtain the RSSI of the input signal.
S120: and determining the working state of the target link according to the RSSI of the output signal.
The working state of the target link may include a fixed gain state and a gain compression state. In the fixed gain state, the link gain of the target link is fixed to initial gains GD0 (uplink) and GU0 (downlink). In a gain compression state, the link gain of the target link is dynamically controlled by a gain control unit of the relay device.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the determining of the working state of the target link may include:
and if the RSSI of the output signal is smaller than a preset rated value POWER0, determining that the working state of the target link is a fixed gain state.
The preset rating POWER0 may be determined according to actual communication requirements of a receiving end (UE or base station) corresponding to the target link, and specifically, the strength of a signal received by the receiving end is moderate, the bottom noise is low, and IQ signal saturation, non-linear imbalance and other phenomena are not caused.
The RSSI of the output signal can be directly detected by a baseband chip, and can also be calculated according to the RSSI of the input signal and the actual link gain. Namely, when the RSSI + GD \ GU < POWER0 of the input signal is input, the target link is determined to be in a fixed gain state.
In the fixed gain state, the RSSI of the output signal is smaller than a rated value, so that the fixed gain can be kept, and the phenomena of small bottom noise, IQ signal saturation, nonlinear imbalance and the like are avoided. The gain can thus be kept constant.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the determining of the working state of the target link may include:
and if the RSSI of the output signal is greater than or equal to a preset rated value POWER0, determining that the working state of the target link is a gain compression state.
In the gain compression state, the RSSI of the output signal POWER exceeds the POWER0, which may cause the communication signal at the corresponding receiving end to be too high, resulting in high background noise, non-linear imbalance, IQ signal saturation, and the like. It is therefore desirable to compress the link gain of the target link to maintain the output signal POWER at the nominal value POWER0 to ensure quality of communications.
S130: and controlling the link gain of the target link according to the working state of the target link.
Specifically, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the target link is in a fixed gain state, the link gain of the target link is controlled to be a preset fixed gain, the preset fixed gain is GU0 for the uplink amplification link, and the preset fixed gain is GD0 for the downlink amplification link. The preset fixed gain may be configured and stored in a predetermined nonvolatile memory NVROM. If the target link is in the fixed gain state, the gain control unit of the relay device may obtain the preset fixed gain value, and control the actual link gain of the target link to be the preset fixed gain value.
The preset fixed gain values GU0, GD0 may be updated once every time the relay device is started, or may be updated once every predetermined time, for example, once every 24 hours, once every 12 hours, and the like. Therefore, the preset fixed gain values GU0 and GD0 can be adjusted adaptively according to the field conditions of the relay equipment, and the gain of the relay equipment can meet the requirement of communication quality.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, if the working state of the target link is a gain compression state, the link gain of the target link is adjusted according to the RSSI of the input signal of the target link.
When the working state of the target link is determined to be a gain compression state, the RSSI of an input signal can be monitored in real time through a baseband chip, and the link gain of the target link is adjusted according to the RSSI of the input signal. Specifically, the sum of the RSSI of the input signal and the link gain GU \ GD can be controlled to be equal to the preset rated value POWER0, and the RSSI of the output signal is equal to the sum of the RSSI of the input signal and the link gain GU \ GD, so that the RSSI of the output signal of the target link can be adjusted.
Further, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the link gain of the target link may be dynamically adjusted according to a variation of the RSSI of the input signal, so that the sum of the RSSI of the input signal and the link gain GU \ GD is kept at the preset rated value POWER 0. That is, under the condition that the RSSI of the input signal changes, the link gain is synchronously adjusted accordingly, so that the output signal power of the target link is kept stable, and the stable communication quality is ensured.
Specifically, in the monitoring process, if the RSSI of the input signal increases, the link gain is controlled to decrease accordingly, and the increase of the link gain is controlled to be equal to the decrease of the RSSI of the input signal. And if the RSSI of the input signal is increased, controlling the link gain to be correspondingly reduced, and controlling the reduction amount of the link gain to be equal to the increase amount of the RSSI. Therefore, the sum of the RSSI of the input signal and the link gain GU \ GD is kept to be the preset rated value POWER0, namely the RSSI of the output signal is kept to be the preset rated value POWER0, and the signal receiving quality of a receiving end of the output signal is ensured to be stable and improved.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 4, the relay device may further include a filter, a low noise amplifier LNA, and a power amplifier PA. Correspondingly, if the RSSI of the input signal exceeds a preset first threshold value, for example, the RSSI of the input signal exceeds the preset rated value POWER0, even if the link gain is reduced to 0, the sum of the RSSI of the input signal and the link gain is still greater than POWER0, and the low Noise amplifier lna (low Noise amplifier) at the input end of the target link can be turned off during the monitoring process.
The setting of the first threshold may use the maximum signal strength actually acceptable by the receiving end of the target link as a setting basis. For example, the first threshold may be set to be 2 times, 1.5 times, etc. of POWER0, so as to ensure that the received signal strength at the receiving end corresponding to the output end of the target link does not exceed the first threshold to the maximum, thereby ensuring the communication quality. In addition, the RSSI of the input signal can be directly reduced by turning off the Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) at the input end of the target link, so that the RSSI of the corresponding output signal can be reduced as soon as possible.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, during the monitoring process, if the RSSI of the input signal is too large and exceeds a preset second threshold, the link gain is adjusted to 0, and the low noise amplifier LNA at the input end of the target link and the power amplifier pa (power amplifier) at the output end of the target link are turned off. Wherein the second threshold is greater than the first threshold. The setting of the second threshold may use the maximum signal strength actually acceptable by the receiving end of the target link as a setting basis. For example, the second threshold may be set to be 2 times, 1.5 times, or the like of POWER0, so as to ensure that the signal strength received by the receiving end corresponding to the output end of the target link does not exceed the second threshold to the maximum, thereby ensuring the communication quality. On the basis of closing the Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) at the input end of the target link, the Power Amplifier (PA) at the input end of the target link is further closed, so that the RSSI of the input signal can be further reduced, and the RSSI of the corresponding output signal can be reduced as soon as possible.
