The method of a kind of base station and configuring time division duplex system frame structure thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to the mobile communication technology field, the method for particularly a kind of base station and configuring time division duplex system frame structure thereof.
Background technology
In international mobile communication/internet mobile communication (IMT-Advanced) system of the advanced person of International Telecommunications Union (International Telecommunications Union:ITU), the bandwidth of maximum wireless communication can reach 100MHz.By broadband wireless communications, the user can enjoy data at a high speed and download, shopping online, mobile video chat, the wireless mobile service that mobile TV etc. are numerous.The transmission rate of IMT-Advanced system maximum can reach 1Gbps, has greatly satisfied user's the demand for wireless mobile communications.
For wireless communication bandwidth, use time division duplex (TDD) mode not need paired frequency, can use various frequency resources, be applicable to asymmetric up-downgoing message transmission rate, be specially adapted to the data service of IP type; Uplink and downlink works is in same frequency, and the symmetry characteristic of radio wave propagation makes it multi-antenna technology easy to use, reaches the purpose that improves performance, reduces cost.
Frame structure for the TDD system; in a frequency range, there are ascending time slot and descending time slot simultaneously; be respectively applied for and transmit upstream data and downlink data; there is protection (Guard Period:GP) at interval between descending time slot and the ascending time slot, is used to avoid of the interference of the data of descending time slot upward signal.
In different scenes, the configuration of required uplink and downlink timeslot is different, thereby the quantity of up-downgoing switching point may be different.For the TDD system, for fear of the interference between the uplink and downlink timeslot, the time slot alignment is most important constraints.
As shown in Figure 1; in existing TDD system; a protection interval of definition GP between descending pilot frequency time slot (DwPTS) and uplink pilot time slot (UpPTS); this GP is referred to as down up protection (Downlink Uplink Switching Point:DUSP) at interval, also has a up-downgoing protection (Uplink Downlink Switching Point:UDSP) at interval.
Wherein, final stage all has a protection (Timeslot Interval) at interval in each time slot, supposes that TS0, TS4, TS5 and TS6 are descending time slots, and TS1, TS2 and TS3 are ascending time slots; then the protection between TS3 and the TS4 is spaced apart UDSP, and other protection is spaced apart blank spaces.
For the TDD system, DUSP is as the downstream signal protection interval that emission is disturbed to upward signal, and its length legislations the size of coverage radius of cell.Make that the DUSP time span is T
GP, so Zui Da radius of society is R=T
GP* V
0/ 2, V wherein
0Be electromagnetic speed.If T
GP=75 μ s, the then maximum radius of society of supporting is R=11.25Km.
In addition, the quantity of up-downgoing transfer point is determining the size of TDD system minimum transfer time delay.If subscriber equipment (UE) has a upstream message to need to send, UE at first sends the information of resource bid by ascending time slot, through after the UDSP, the UE resource allocation information is notified in the base station in descending time slot, through after the DUSP, UE just can send data in the appointment physical resource in ascending time slot again.
At present, in order to reduce the propagation delay time of system, require to increase protection at interval, existing method one is that a time slot is become transfer point, because the structure of time slot of TDD system is fixed, increases the utilization ratio that the up-downgoing transfer point can reduce system resource like this.
Existing method two is that the length with GP reduces by half, the GP that second half retention time is used to increase newly.But the frame structure after the increase GP is compared with original frame structure variation has been taken place, and can not guarantee strict alignment relation between the time slot; And this has also influenced the covering radius of system.
In sum, in order to increase protection at interval, make system resource utilization efficient reduce at present, can not guarantee strict alignment relation between the time slot, and influence the covering radius of system.
