Description

A kind of multi-carrier signal clipping device of optimization and method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to the signal processing apparatus and the method in digital mobile communication field, particularly relate to a kind of multi-carrier signal clipping device and method thereof that reduces the multi-carrier communications systems signal peak-to-average ratio.
Background technology
At present, wireless telecommunication system adopts higher BPSK (the Binary Phase Shift Key of the availability of frequency spectrum, binary phase shift keying), QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Key, Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), 8QAM (8Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, 8 quadrature amplitude modulation), 16QAM (16QuadratureAmplitude Modulation, 16 quadrature amplitude modulation) modulation system such as, these modulation systems are not only modulated the phase place of carrier wave, also the amplitude of carrier wave is modulated, these modulation systems can produce the non-permanent envelope modulated signal of big peak-to-average force ratio, the signal of these big peak-to-average force ratios can make some semiconductor device of power amplifier be operated in nonlinear area, will produce serious intermodulation component like this, in band, can cause the interference between signal, outside band, can produce serious spectral re-growth, the band external system is produced interference, though can solve this problem by the rollback amount of regulating power amplifier 1dB compression point, but will reduce the power output of power amplifier so greatly, make efficiency of amplitude become very low, so be necessary to take corresponding techniques to reduce and be input to the signal peak-to-average ratio of power amplifier, reduce peak-to-average force ratio simultaneously and can also bring following benefit:
A) reduce system cost, present high-power pipe cost is higher, and slicing is to realize that at numeric field cost is lower;
B) combine with pre-distortion algorithms, can improve the degree of improvement of pre-distortion algorithms greatly the power amplifier linear index.Just be based at the clipping device of multi-carrier signal and method that these thoughts put forward.
Clipping method is to adopt suitable strategy to handle by the peak value to signal, reduce signal peak-to-average ratio CCDF (Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function thereby reach, CCDF), guarantee EVM (Error Vector Magnitude simultaneously, Error Vector Magnitude) and the deterioration of ACLR (Adjacent Channel Leakage Power Ratio, Adjacent Channel Leakage Power Ratio) index in allowed band.At present, the device and method of multicarrier slicing realization has following several:
(1) hard clipping adds filtering
The principle that hard clipping is realized is comparatively simple, mainly be that the signal that will handle is compared with the slicing thresholding, to be restricted on the slicing thresholding greater than the sampled point of slicing thresholding, the sampled point of this method affect is less, therefore can obtain more excellent EVM index, flex point can appear but this method can cause at the edge of peak pulse, thereby produce serious frequency spectrum diffusion, the inhibition of the spread spectrum of back is handled and is had bigger pressure like this, and this requires the filter of back that enough inhibition indexs will be arranged; On the other hand, the primary signal behind the slicing is added the recovery that filter may cause peak value, the slicing effect can variation like this.
(2) peak value window clipping method
Because flex point can appear in the realization of hard clipping method, these flex points can cause the serious diffusion of frequency spectrum, if can carry out smoothing processing to these flex points, just can significantly reduce band spuious generation outward, and peak value window clipping method just is based on that this thought puts forward.The realization principle of peak value window clipping method is earlier the peak value of signal to be searched for, carrying out relevant parameters according to peak value calculates, obtain one group of parameter A relevant with signal peak, again this group parameter A is carried out smoothing processing and (generally adopt FIR (Finite Impulse Response, finite impulse response (FIR)) filter is realized), obtain one group of B parameter, with B parameter and signal multiplication.Because the peak-to-average force ratio of single carrier is lower, single carrier is had slicing effect preferably, and it is higher for its peak-to-average force ratio of multi-carrier signal, in order to obtain certain slicing effect, the band of signal is outer spuious higher behind the slicing, and this smoothing filter that just requires parameter A is handled must have higher exponent number, can increase the expense of system resource so on the one hand, and it is high more to work as filter order, and the sampling number of influence is just many more, the bigger deterioration that will bring the EVM index; On the other hand, the probability that occurs continuous peak value for multicarrier in a period of time can be bigger, because the filter of higher exponent number may cause the situation that signal is repeated weighting, with peak value window method multi-carrier signal is being carried out the desirable slicing effect of the just impossible acquisition of slicing like this during the realization of peak value window clipping method.Though this situation at multicarrier can be alleviated by the peak value window clipping method of cascade, this need increase the more resources expense, and cost can corresponding raising.
(3) clipping method is offset in pulse
The thought that clipping method is based on the signal stack is offset in pulse, as long as it is opposite to produce a phase place at the peak pulse place, the proportional cancellation pulses of amplitude and peak value size just can have slicing effect preferably, and the key that this method realizes is the estimation of extraction, peak pulse amplitude and the position of peak value offset pulse.The advantage of pulse counteracting method is, only need carry out forming processes to the frequency spectrum of cancellation pulses, make its spectral characteristic have the stopband identical and suppress, need not primary signal is carried out forming processes, can reduce deterioration so as far as possible the EVM index with original signal spectrum.
In China's number of applying for a patent is 03109876.2 patent of invention, a kind of multi-carrier signal clipping method has been proposed, this method is based on the clipping method that pulse is offset, its method that produces cancellation pulses is based on the method for hard-limiting, this method will obtain better peak-to-average force ratio effect can cause serious frequency spectrum diffusion effect, design for the filter coefficient in the broadband noise processing unit thereafter brings bigger pressure like this, needs more resources to go to realize so will obtain better peak-to-average force ratio index under the linear index that meets the demands.
In Chinese patents number is that 200510082955.7 patent of invention has proposed a kind of multi-carrier signal clipping device and method that adopts preconditioning technique, this patent is the method for twice slicing of usefulness, at first, carry out pre-slicing processing to receiving each sub-carrier signal, secondly, after signal closed the road behind the slicing, signal had carried out slicing behind the involutory again road, and what twice slicing adopted all is the hard clipping method.Although carrying out slicing at different carrier power, this patent handles, to the more weak carrier signal EVM of power less influence can be arranged like this, but need carrying out twice slicing processing usually, this processing structure could obtain comparatively ideal peak-to-average force ratio index, this scheme implementation structure more complicated, need more hardware resource could obtain slicing effect preferably, simultaneously, adopt the method for hard clipping, can cause serious frequency spectrum diffusion effect, like this under the prerequisite that satisfies certain linearity index to slicing after Signal Processing (Design of Filter) bring bigger pressure.
