Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Some embodiments of the invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The features of the embodiments and examples described below may be combined with each other without conflict between the embodiments. In addition, the sequence of steps in each method embodiment described below is only an example and is not strictly limited.
The scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention can be suitable for a satellite communication system, in particular to a low-orbit satellite communication system. Fig. 1 illustrates the components of a typical satellite communication system, which includes three components, a satellite, a ground station, and a user terminal, as shown in fig. 1.
The satellite may be a Low Earth Orbit satellite (LEO), and the flying height thereof is less than 1000 km, typically between 500 km and 700 km.
The satellite plays the role of a relay station in the air, and can amplify the electromagnetic waves transmitted by the ground station and then return the electromagnetic waves to another ground station.
The figure illustrates a data streaming scenario in which a user terminal communicates using a satellite: the user terminal 1 may send the sent data to the satellite, the satellite relays the data to the ground station corresponding to the correspondent node, and the ground station forwards the data to the correspondent node device, i.e., the user terminal 2, corresponding to the user terminal 1.
As can be seen from the above examples, in practical applications, the types of devices communicating with the satellite include user terminals and ground stations. The "inter-satellite-ground communication channel" in the embodiments of the present invention refers to a communication channel between a satellite and a ground station, or a communication channel between a satellite and a user terminal.
In the actual communication process, two communication processes of uplink (data is sent to the satellite from the ground side) and downlink (data is sent to the ground side by the satellite) exist between the satellite and the ground, and an uplink channel and a downlink channel are different actually. In summary, the channel prediction scheme may be performed by the transmitting device. In the process of uplink communication, the sending end equipment is ground side equipment (a ground station or a user terminal), and the receiving end equipment is a satellite at the moment; in the downlink communication process, the sending end device is a satellite, and the receiving end device is a ground side device (a ground station or a user terminal).
As described above, the ACM technology is an important technical means for ensuring the network service quality in the satellite communication field, can adaptively adjust the uplink and downlink modulation and coding schemes according to the real-time channel quality, and is very important for ensuring the application experience of the internet application using satellite communication. As shown in fig. 2, the ACM technique mainly includes two parts, namely a channel prediction technique and a modulation and coding selection technique.
In practical applications, a prediction period of the channel quality may be set to periodically perform channel quality prediction. Of course, it can be understood that, for the transmitting end device and the receiving end device, the periodic channel quality prediction is performed in the communication process after the wireless communication connection is established. The channel prediction technology is mainly responsible for predicting the channel quality of a wireless channel between the transceiving end equipment at the next prediction time at the current prediction time, and can further predict the fluctuation condition of the channel quality during the two prediction times. The modulation coding selection technology selects a corresponding modulation and coding mode according to the predicted channel quality.
In practical applications, the channel quality can be represented by, for example, a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Of course, other indexes may also be used to measure the Channel Quality, such as Channel Quality Indicator (CQI), Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP), Received Signal Strength of carrier (RSSI), and so on.
The selection of the modulation and coding scheme mainly refers to the selection of the modulation order and the coding rate. In summary, the better the channel quality, the higher the modulation order and coding rate can be selected, whereas if the channel quality is not good, the lower the modulation order and coding rate can be selected.
In practice, as shown in fig. 2, both the transmitting end device and the receiving end device will have a modulator and a demodulator therein. The channel prediction scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention is executed at the sending end equipment, so that after the sending end equipment finishes the channel quality at the next prediction moment, the corresponding modulation and coding mode is selected, the local modulator is used for modulating and coding the data to be transmitted next according to the modulation and coding mode, the data is finally sent to the receiving end equipment, and the receiving end equipment analyzes the data through the demodulator.
The following embodiments are provided to describe the implementation of the channel prediction scheme in detail.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a satellite-to-ground channel prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the method may include the following steps:
301. the method comprises the steps that a sending end device obtains a channel quality actual value of an inter-satellite communication channel between the sending end device and a receiving end device at the current prediction time.
302. The sending end equipment obtains the actual channel quality values and the relative positions between the satellite and the ground corresponding to a plurality of historical prediction moments before the current prediction moment.
303. And the sending end equipment determines a channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time according to the actual channel quality values and the relative positions and postures between the satellite and the ground corresponding to the multiple historical prediction times.
304. And the sending end equipment determines the channel quality predicted value at the next prediction time according to the channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time and the actual value of the channel quality at the current prediction time.
As described above, when the sending end device is a satellite, the receiving end device may be a ground station or a user terminal; and when the sending terminal equipment is a ground station or a user terminal, the receiving terminal equipment is a satellite.
In practical application, as shown in fig. 2, it is assumed that a sending end device sends data to a receiving end device through a wireless channel (inter-satellite-ground communication channel) between the sending end device and the receiving end device, and the receiving end device can calculate the channel quality (such as signal-to-noise ratio) at this time after receiving the data. Assuming that the current time is exactly a predicted time determined according to the set prediction period, the channel quality value currently calculated by the receiving end device is used as the actual channel quality value of the current predicted time in the above step. Then, the receiving end device may feed back the actual value of the channel quality to the sending end device through a feedback path illustrated in the figure, so that the sending end device obtains the actual value of the channel quality of the wireless channel between the sending end device and the receiving end device at the current predicted time.
Taking the low-earth orbit satellite as an example, firstly, the low-earth orbit satellite moves fast relative to the ground, and the channel quality changes fast along with the movement, so that the low-earth orbit satellite has extremely high dynamics. Secondly, at present, more and more low-earth orbit satellite communication uses Ka, Ku and higher frequency bands for communication, and in such a wireless transmission environment, environmental factors including cloud, rain, fog, snow and the like bring non-negligible signal attenuation influence to the low-earth orbit satellite communication. Therefore, it is very difficult to accurately predict the channel quality in such a communication environment.
In the embodiment of the invention, in order to adapt to the characteristics of dynamic change of the inter-satellite-ground wireless channel quality and the characteristics of susceptibility to interference of various communication environment factors, a new channel attenuation model is provided for predicting the channel quality, and a scheme for dynamically calibrating the channel attenuation model on line is also provided, so that the channel attenuation models used at different prediction moments are adapted to the current communication environment, and accurate prediction of the channel quality at different prediction moments is facilitated.
Currently, many channel attenuation models have been proposed for wireless communication scenarios, such as a free space transmission model, an atmospheric attenuation model, a rain height model, a cloud attenuation model, a flicker attenuation model, and an antenna receive gain model provided by ITU-R, and so on. In the embodiment of the present invention, the channel attenuation models represented by the following formula are obtained by combining these attenuation models:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
as can be seen, the channel attenuation model is composed of a first term on the left side of the plus sign and a second term on the right side of the plus sign. Wherein the first term corresponds to inter-satellite distance and is used to describe free space distance attenuation. The second term corresponds to the inter-satellite pitch angle, wherein the second term comprises an attenuation coefficient variable corresponding to the communication environment factors
Figure 389202DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
In the above-described channel attenuation model,
Figure 571922DEST_PATH_IMAGE003
in order to integrate various communication environment factors and channel attenuation values after communication distance, namely the attenuation condition of signals in a channel,
Figure 820501DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
the inter-satellite distance is the straight-line distance between the satellite and the ground station or between the satellite and the terminal.
Figure 418972DEST_PATH_IMAGE005
Is the inter-satellite pitch angle.
Figure 951454DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
And
Figure 39495DEST_PATH_IMAGE005
can be understood with reference to fig. 4.
Figure 509791DEST_PATH_IMAGE006
Is a variable of attenuation coefficient corresponding to the communication environment factor.
The above channel attenuation model describes the integrated attenuation of the channel at a specific frequency (the frequency corresponding to the wireless channel between the transmitting end device and the receiving end device), location, and environment, depending on the specific frequency
Figure 177533DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
And
Figure 111991DEST_PATH_IMAGE005
the situation of the change. Therefore, the temperature of the molten metal is controlled,
Figure 308617DEST_PATH_IMAGE007
depending on the particular frequency, location and environment. It can be seen that, in the above channel attenuation model,
Figure 282520DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
and
Figure 285111DEST_PATH_IMAGE005
is a variable that needs to be input when using a channel fading model, and
Figure 11759DEST_PATH_IMAGE006
is a variable that determines what the channel fading model used at a certain predicted time should be, i.e., for each predicted time, it is necessary to predetermine the time at that time
Figure 707182DEST_PATH_IMAGE006
Can a channel attenuation model be obtained that is available at that time.
However in the true satellite communicationIn a telecommunications system, actual
Figure 417649DEST_PATH_IMAGE007
Values are often difficult to measure, and therefore, a derivation method using fitting is provided in the embodiment of the present invention
Figure 896035DEST_PATH_IMAGE007
Numerical solutions, i.e. using historical channel quality data to extrapolate back to the channel fading model used at the current predicted time
Figure 805085DEST_PATH_IMAGE007
To determine the channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time. In practical application, the above
Figure 592782DEST_PATH_IMAGE008
The value of (A) is generally smaller values such as 3 and 5.
The above-mentioned online calibration of the channel attenuation model is actually a process of determining the channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time by using the channel quality conditions at each historical prediction time in a short period of time before the current prediction time, and can be implemented as follows:
and acquiring the actual channel quality values and the relative satellite-ground poses corresponding to a plurality of historical prediction moments before the current prediction moment, and determining a channel attenuation model used at the current prediction moment according to the actual channel quality values and the relative satellite-ground poses corresponding to the historical prediction moments. As shown in fig. 4, the relative position between the star and the ground includes: distance and pitch angle.
In practical applications, for the current predicted time, the actual channel quality values at the past historical predicted times, for example, within 5 minutes, may be collected, that is, the channel quality values actually calculated by the receiving end device at the past historical predicted times. In addition, the relative pose (distance and pitch angle) between the receiving end device and the sending end device at each historical prediction time can be determined by the existing correlation technique, and is not described herein again.
In an optional embodiment, the determining, according to the actual channel quality value and the relative position between satellites and ground corresponding to each of the plurality of historical prediction times, a channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time may be implemented as:
obtaining a plurality of channel quality values obtained after the free space distance attenuation is respectively removed from the channel quality actual values corresponding to a plurality of historical prediction moments;
substituting the inter-satellite pitch angle corresponding to the target channel quality value into the second term to obtain a target second term aiming at any target channel quality value in the plurality of channel quality values;
establishing an equation corresponding to the target channel quality value such that the sum of the target channel quality value and the target second term is zero;
and determining the value of the attenuation coefficient variable in the channel attenuation model used at the current prediction moment by fitting an equation corresponding to each of the plurality of channel quality values.
To facilitate understanding of the above process, an example is illustrated.

actually, these actual channel quality values are calculated by the receiving end device in real time based on the current data receiving condition, and may reflect the actual quality condition of the current channel affected by the free space distance attenuation and the interference of various communication environment factors, that is, these actual channel quality values include the effect of the free space distance attenuation. The free space fading simply means that the quality of a communication signal transmitted over a radio channel is affected only by the distance between both communication parties, and the quality deteriorates as the distance increases.

the amount of change in the attenuation of the channel quality between the two predicted times predicted by the channel attenuation model is shown. In practical applications, the prediction period may be in the order of seconds, such as 10 seconds.
After the predicted value of the channel quality at the next predicted time is obtained, a modulation and coding mode matched with the predicted value can be determined based on the predicted result, so that the communication signal to be transmitted is modulated and coded by the determined modulation and coding mode from the current predicted time to the next predicted time. In practical application, the corresponding relationship between different channel qualities and modulation and coding modes can be preset, so that the currently adopted modulation and coding mode can be determined based on the corresponding relationship, and the determined modulation and coding mode is ensured to be matched with the current channel quality.
To sum up, in the embodiments of the present invention, in one aspect, a channel attenuation model supporting online calibration is provided: a corresponding formula of the channel attenuation model integrating various influence factors is provided by integrating the free space attenuation model, the rain height model, the cloud attenuation model, the fog attenuation model and the like, the formula is simple to apply, and collected historical channel quality data in a short time can be directly used for online calibration. The online calibration mechanism enables the channel attenuation model to adapt to key factors influencing channel quality, such as different geographic positions, weather and the like, and ensures universality. The calibration execution period of the model may be configured on the order of minutes (such as 5 minutes for example above), ensuring a fast response to changes in the communication environment. Moreover, input variables of the channel attenuation model only relate to the inter-satellite-ground distance and the pitching angle, input information is easy to measure accurately, and compared with the traditional channel attenuation model (such as the required input rainfall rate, temperature and the like in a rainfall attenuation model) in which some input information is difficult to measure, the attenuation conditions of satellite channels at different moments can be accurately calculated. On the other hand, the amount of change in channel quality at different prediction times is predicted by using a channel fading model (
Figure 929850DEST_PATH_IMAGE045
) And the channel quality of the next prediction moment is predicted by combining the actual channel quality of the current prediction moment, historical channel quality information and attenuation changes of the channel quality of different prediction moments are considered, and the accuracy of a prediction result can be ensured.

504. And the sending end equipment determines the channel quality predicted value at the next prediction time according to the channel attenuation model used at the current prediction time and the actual value of the channel quality at the current prediction time.

In practical applications, as mentioned above, the prediction period may be set to a second level, such as 10 seconds between adjacent prediction moments. However, during the 10 seconds, the quality of the inter-satellite communication channel also changes dynamically, and actually, if the channel quality condition in this period can be known more accurately, the modulation and coding mode matched with the channel quality condition can be determined more reasonably, which is beneficial to improving the channel spectrum utilization rate and ensuring the communication application experience.
