Technical field
The present invention relates to multi-transmitting antenna system, relate to pilot signal transmission method particularly based on the multiaerial system of OFDM.
Background technology
Wireless communication technology develops to the direction of broadband wireless access.And for the high power capacity of the high efficiency, two-forty and the system that realize wireless transmission, comprehensive utilization OFDM (OFDM) and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology are the selections of following wireless communication technology.
At present, based on the pilot signal transmission method of orthogonal frequency division multiplexi and single transmitting antenna comparative maturity.Accompanying drawing 1 has provided a kind of single transmit antenna pilot signal based on the OFDM technology and has sent schematic diagram (frequency pilot sign is in the drawings with there being the rectangle frame of horizontal line shade to represent).In this schematic diagram, a transmission time interval (TTI) comprises two subframes, each subframe comprises 6 or 7 OFDM symbols (schematic diagram is 7 OFDM symbols), frequency pilot sign is arranged in two OFDM symbols (first OFDM symbol and third from the bottom OFDM symbol are called first frequency pilot sign and second frequency pilot sign below) of subframe.Frequency pilot sign has following characteristics: frequency pilot sign is equally distributed at frequency domain, pilot symbol interval be M (in the figure.M=6) individual subcarrier.Being arranged in the frequency pilot sign of first frequency pilot sign and the frequency pilot sign of second frequency pilot sign is staggered at frequency domain.
But in the system of comprehensive utilization OFDM (OFDM) and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology, how pilot signal transmitted is a relatively problem of difficulty.
A kind of method of launching the multi-antenna pilot signal is the pilot signal transmission method that directly adopts based on the single transmit antenna.The advantage of this method is compatible good with a single aerial system, and the system of being convenient to realizes.Shortcoming is: the expense of pilot signal transmitted is linear increasing along with the increase of the number of transmitting antenna, when the number of transmitting antenna many, such as there being 4 or more for a long time, this expense is intolerable often.Such as the pilot signal expense of single transmit antenna is 5% can receive in general communication system, but expense becomes 20% and just makes us and can't receive during four antennas.
The method of another emission multi-antenna pilot signal is that above a kind of method is the basis, but when number of transmit antennas is many, when being 4 such as number of transmit antennas, the transmission frequency of pilot signal is that half of last a kind of method and the position of pilot signal transmission are subclass that goes up a kind of method.The advantage of this method is that the expense of pilot signal is a kind of littler than last, has also kept the compatibility with a single aerial system simultaneously.Shortcoming is: because pilot signal reduces too much, the accuracy of channel estimating greatly reduces, and the performance of system has been subjected to having a strong impact on.
In sum, for the system that utilizes OFDM (OFDM) and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology, propose a kind of pilot signal distribution method of many antennas newly, the performance of taking all factors into consideration expense and system is very important.
