Description

Combination channel estimating method in the mobile radio system and estimation unit
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of wireless communication technology, relate to combination channel estimating method and estimation unit in a kind of mobile radio system in particular.
Background technology
The performance of wireless mobile communications mainly is subjected to the restriction of wireless channel.In wireless propagation environment, the propagation path between transmitter and the receiver is very complicated, from simple line-of-sight propagation, to the landforms and the atural object that meet with various complexity.Wireless channel does not resemble the wire message way fixing and can predict, but has the randomness of height, is a kind of random time-varying channel.
Wireless signal during by wireless channel the decay of following three aspects that can be come from damage:
1. path loss (Pathloss), this be since propagation medium to propagation loss and disperse that radio wave caused;
2. shadow fading (Shadow fading), this is because hypsography, building and other barriers in the communication environments covers caused large scale decline (Large scale fading) to electric wave.This rate of fading is slower, is called slow fading again;
3. multipath fading (Multipath fading), this is the small scale decline (Small scale fading) that multipath transmisstion (Multipathtransmission) owing to mobile communication environments and Doppler frequency shift (Doppler shift) effect cause.Because its rate of fading is very fast, can be described as rapid fading again.Multipath fading is a part most characteristic in the characteristics of radio channels.
From the wireless system project angle, path loss and shadow fading mainly have influence on the covering of wireless zone, and reasonably design always can be eliminated this adverse influence.And multipath fading has a strong impact on the transmission of wireless signals quality, and is inevitable.The antenna of subscriber equipment is generally lower, and wireless signal can be subjected to stopping of groups of building or landform in transmission course, transmits will pass through many propagation paths such as direct projection, reflection, scattering and could arrive receiving terminal; And along with moving of subscriber equipment, signal amplitude, phase place and time delay on each bar propagation path change whenever and wherever possible.Receiver antenna has formed an amplitude and phase place received signal all jumpy after such multipath signal is synthesized.Receiver if can not carry out reasonable compensation at the multipath fading of wireless channel, certainly will produce mistake, thereby influence the receptivity of wireless signal when detecting transmitting according to such received signal when detection signal is adjudicated.
Simultaneously, because the multipath transmisstion and the doppler shift effect of wireless channel, wireless signal will produce time delay expansion and Doppler broadening after wireless channel transmission, be embodied in the time domain that the shared bandwidth of signal becomes greatly in the elongated and frequency domain of the duration of signal.This will cause the intersymbol interference (ISI:Inter-symbol interference) in the signal, and, therefore in a multi-user's mobile radio system, also will cause a multiple access between the different user signal the sub-district in to disturb adjacent area interference (ACI:Adjacentcell interference) between the interior different user signal of (MAI:Multiple access interference) and neighbor cell.These interference all will influence correct detection and the judgement of receiver to transmitting, and cause the receptivity of wireless signal to descend, thereby make the performance of mobile radio system impaired.
The decay infringement that above-mentioned wireless signal is subjected to during by wireless channel can be described by the channel impulse response (Channel impulse response) of wireless channel.In the third generation mobile radio system that proposes at present, the general method of emission pilot frequency sequence (Pilot) or training sequence (Midamble) that adopts makes the receiving terminal of wireless signal estimate the channel impulse response of wireless channel according to described pilot frequency sequence or training sequence, thereby in the process that detects transmitting, use described channel estimation value to compensate, reduce the error probability in transmit detection and the judgement at the characteristic of channel of wireless channel.Simultaneously, transmitting terminal at wireless signal uses direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS:Direct sequence-spreadspectrum) technology that signal spectrum is expanded, and use Rake to receive (Rake receive) interface differential technique at the receiving terminal of wireless signal and collect mail and number carry out despreading, utilize described spread-spectrum signal to obtain diversity gain through the multidiameter delay component that is produced behind the multipath transmisstion, make the multipath transmisstion effect of wireless channel turn bane into boon, reduce the adverse effect of intersymbol interference, thereby improve the receptivity of wireless signal input and judging process.What is more important, at the adjacent area interference between the different user signal in interference of the multiple access between the different user signal in the sub-district and the neighbor cell, in wireless signal receiver, use Multiuser Detection (Multiuser Detection) technology that transmitting of different user carried out joint-detection (Joint Detection), receiver opposing multiple access disturbs and the ability of adjacent area interference thereby improve, and improves the receptivity of multi-user radio signal.
In above-mentioned Rake reception technique and multiuser detection, the estimated value that obtains wireless channel in time, exactly is the basis that these technology are brought into play its advantage, otherwise its technique effect will be had a greatly reduced quality.At present, there has been a large amount of channel estimation methods in the prior art, but these algorithms generally design based on single user's transmission of wireless signals, when existing multiple access to disturb in the transmission course of wireless signal and during adjacent area interference, only at the significantly reduction of performance of single user's channel estimation method.Also have in some channel estimation methods and proposed to carry out channel estimating simultaneously at a plurality of users in the sub-district, this channel estimation method has considered that the multiple access between the different user signal in the sub-district disturbs, thereby can improve the channel estimating performance in the multi-user radio mobile communication system to a certain extent.But, when having stronger adjacent area interference between the different user signal in the neighbor cell, described channel estimation method at the multi-user in the sub-district can only be handled the interference from adjacent sub-district as noise, still do not have very good performance.
Thereby, how in the mobile radio system of sub-district, multi-user more than one, when existing multiple access to disturb in the transmission course of wireless signal and during adjacent area interference, obtain channel estimation value at each user in time, exactly and be to need in the prior art problem that solves.

Figure A20061001175400125
In each element compare with a default threshold value respectively, the element that is lower than described predetermined threshold value will be used as noise, its value is set to 0; The element that is higher than described predetermined threshold value does not change, and is used as the channel impulse response estimation value of described active user.The another kind of criterion that can adopt is nearest criterion: described base station in described neighbor cell, choose at least one apart from its nearest active user as described interference user.Existing global positioning system (GPS) and other localization method all can be used to know the position of described active user, and and then calculate distance between described active user and described base station.In addition, the strongest channel impulse response power guidelines and nearest criterion can also be united use: described base station is its active user less than a predeterminable range D of selected distance in a described neighbor cell at first; Then, carry out multiuser channel at selected active user and estimate, perhaps carry out channel estimating respectively at each selected active user; At last, in selected active user, choose at least one user as described interference user with the strongest channel impulse response power.
Handle load in order to reduce described signal of base station, the conditions such as statistical law that can move according to the communication service statistical nature in the system or user of choosing to described interference user, carry out once every a default time T, in each default time T, can think that the selected interference user in described base station does not change.
Determined after the described interference user that next the method according to this invention, need carry out the combined channel estimation at selected interference user and the active user of being investigated in the sub-district.Represent selected interference user and investigated the sum of the active user in the sub-district with K, based on selected interference user with investigated the training sequence code of the active user in the sub-district { m ( k ) = ( m 1 ( k ) , m 2 ( k ) · · · m N ( k ) ) T , k = 1 , . . . , K } In this step, at first, can construct training sequence code matrix G, G=[G (1), G (2)..., G (K)]; For each described interference user or active user, G (k)The form that can have following formula 2,

Wherein, h=[(h (1)) T, (h (2)) T..., (h (K)) T] TExpression is at a described K user's uplink channel impulse response, h ( k ) = ( h 1 ( k ) , h 2 ( k ) · · · h W ( k ) ) T , K=1 ..., K; The length that n represents to be attached on the received signal vector e is the additive white Gaussian noise signal vector of L.At last, described base station is united estimation according to received signal vector e to channel impulse response h.At this moment, ZF (Zero forcing) or least mean-square error (Minimum mean square error) scheduling algorithm all can be used to h is united estimation.For example, when using zero forcing algorithm, estimated value h ^ = ( G H G ) - 1 G H e , For a kind of nothing to h is estimated partially.Easy for matrix computations can add the training sequence code of being investigated the non-active user in the sub-district when the described training sequence code matrix G of structure, make described matrix G become a square formation, thereby with above-mentioned computational short cut be h ^ = G - 1 e . In aforementioned calculation, main amount of calculation comes from matrix inversion operation.For this reason, in the specific implementation, can use the LU decomposition method to reduce the complexity of calculating.Concrete grammar is: at first, matrix being carried out LU decompose, is the product of a lower triangular matrix and a upper triangular matrix with described matrix notation; When being a square formation as G, it is decomposed into G=LU, L is a lower triangular matrix, U is a upper triangular matrix; Then, can obtain described estimated value by the calculating of carrying out in the following formula 4
Figure A20061001175400136
h ^ = U \ ( L \ e ) Expression formula 4
Wherein, " " the left division operation of representing matrix; For lower triangular matrix L, left division operation can utilize forward direction displacement (Forwardsubstitution) algorithm to finish, and for upper triangular matrix U, left division operation can utilize backward-substitition (Backwardsubstitution) algorithm to finish.And for example, when using least-mean-square error algorithm, estimated value h ^ = ( G H G + σ 2 I ) - 1 G H e , Wherein, σ 2Be the power of additive white Gaussian noise signal n, I is the unit matrix on W * K rank, for the least mean-square error to h is estimated.For another example, when using the matched filtering algorithm, estimated value h ^ = ( diag ( G H G ) ) - 1 G H e , Because in the TD-SCDMA system ( diag ( G H G ) ) - 1 = 1 L I , Then described estimated value can be reduced to h ^ = 1 L G H e . In addition, also matched filtering algorithm and least-mean-square error algorithm can be combined, at this moment, at first utilize the matched filtering algorithm to obtain estimating initial value h ^ 0 = ( diag ( G H G ) ) - 1 G H e ; Then, utilize least-mean-square error algorithm to obtain estimating median, and can carry out noise reduction process to it, for example carry out thresholding filtering, the estimation median after noise reduction process is designated as

At last, according to
Figure A20061001175400147
With
Figure A20061001175400148
Obtain estimated value h ^ = h ^ 0 - ( diag ( G H G ) ) - 1 ( diag ‾ ( G H G ) ) h ^ 1 , Wherein, diag (G HG)=G HG-diag (G HG).
Owing to can carry out once every a default time T choosing of described interference user, in each default time T, think that the selected interference user in described base station does not change.Accordingly, in each default time T, do not changed if investigate the active user of sub-district, to G yet HG or G HG+ σ 2The calculating that I inverts can only be carried out once; Simultaneously, the computing of matrix inversion can be divided a plurality of subframes finish in described time T, with the amount of calculation load that alleviates base station equipment and avoid the peak value of amount of calculation to occur a time.The approximate calculation method that also can adopt other directly not invert in the realization.

ρ = | cov ( h ^ , h ) cov ( h ^ , h ^ ) cov ( h , h ) | Expression formula 5
The mean difference of mould value between mean error calculating channel impulse response estimated value and the real channel impulse response, this value is more little, illustrates that the accuracy of channel estimating is high more.The expression of mean error is shown in following expression formula 6:
