Description

A kind of MIMO space-time coding/decoding System and method for that need not channel information
Technical field
The present invention relates to multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication technology field, particularly MIMO baseband modulation and demodulation techniques.
Background technology
In the existing mimo wireless communication technology, definite channel information need be known by 21 receipts and 22 receipts MIMO space-time coding/decoding systems, needs receiver that space channel is carried out parameter Estimation, and this makes that the realization of MIMO receiver is complicated, and cost is high.
MIMO transmit diversity and Space-Time Block Coding are settled a plurality of antennas and are adopted space-time block code because realization is simple relatively in the base station, receiver can obtain space diversity gain in wireless fading channel, and space-time block code has been included a plurality of wireless communication standards in.Alamouti is at " Alamouti S M; ' A Simple TransmitDiversity Technique for Wireless Communications " ' IEEE J Select AreasCommunication; Oct 1998; 16, pp1451-1458 " in the simple transmit diversity techniques of 2 transmitting antennas of a kind of employing has been proposed, and the notion of the simplest 2 antennas Space-Time Block Coding-Alamouti sign indicating number has been proposed formally.
People such as Tarokh are at (Tarokh V, Jafarkhani H, and Calderbank A, " Space-timeblock codes from orthogonal designs ", IEEE Trans.Inf.Theory, vol.45, no.5, pp.1456-1467, Jul.1999; Tarokh V; Jafarkhani H, CalderbankA, " Space-time Block Coding for Wireless Communications:PerformanceResults "; IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications; Vol.17, No.3, March 1999; Tarokh V, Naguib A, Seshadri N; And Calderbank A, " Space-timecodes for high data rate wireless communication:performance criteriain the presence of channel estimation errors, mobility; and multiplepaths ", IEEE Trans.Commune., vol.47; No.2, pp.199-207, Feb.1999; And, Tarokh V, Naguib A; Seshadri N, " Combined Array Processing and spacetime Coding ", IEEE Trans.on Communication info Theory; Vol.45, No4, MAY 1999) etc. in; It further is generalized to the situation more than two antennas, and proposes the notion of Space-Time Block Coding (STBC).Space-Time Block Coding comes down to a kind of spatial domain and time domain combined quadrature block encoding mode, and it utilizes the principle of orthogonal design to distribute transmitting of a plurality of transmitting antennas.Because Space-Time Block Coding obtains the full diversity gain after can making receiver decoding; Guarantee that decoding operation only is simple linear the merging; And its decoding complex degree is much lower with respect to existing space-time trellis codes; Therefore, Space-Time Block Coding has become the space-time coding/decoding technology that haves a great attraction in the practical application.
Because the Space Time Coding device need utilize time and space bidimensional to encode simultaneously, effective need of work of Space Time Coding device uses a plurality of antennas at transmitting terminal and receiving terminal, with effective counteracting decline, improves power efficiency; And then can in transmission channel, realize parallel multiplex, improve spectrum efficiency.Need to prove; Because the Space Time Coding technology belongs to space diversity signal processing category; So require under the multichannel decline situation of multiple scattering body, to use; A plurality of antennas of transmitter and the distance between the receiver antenna should transmit, receive the signal mutual independence with assurance greater than 10 times the wavelength that transmits, and make full use of the multichannel decline that the multiple scattering body is caused.
The correlation in Space Time Coding introducing time and space in the signal that different antennae is sent just can be receiving terminal unexistent diversity gain of single-antenna wireless communication system and the coding gain that does not adopt Space Time Coding is provided thereby need not sacrifice bandwidth.
The basic functional principle of Space Time Coding is following: the inter-area traffic interarea that provides from information source; After arriving the Space Time Coding device; Form the modulation symbol of launching from a plurality of transmitting antennas simultaneously, vector symbol (STVS) when these modulation symbols are called space-time symbol (STS) or sky with vector output.The system of Space Time Coding realizes that block diagram is as shown in Figure 1.
Lattice encoding and space-time block code (STBC) when the Space Time Coding mode that proposes at present mainly contains demixing time space, sky.These three kinds of Space Time Coding respectively have its pluses and minuses; Can select suitable coding according to certain conditions; Because that in IEEE 802.16e agreement, adopted is Space-Time Block Coding (STBC); So emphasis is analyzed Space-Time Block Coding, point out the problem of its existence, and then propose 21 receipts and 22 receipts MIMO machine space-time coding/decoding systems that need not channel information of the present invention.
Coding method by Alamouti proposition STBC is the coding method that is fit to two system of transmit antennas at first, and on this basis, Tarokh extends to plural system of transmit antennas with it.Identical with the Alamouti coding method, Tarokh still adopts the encoder matrix of orthogonal design; Yet,, but can obtain maximum diversity gain no matter be that Alamouti or the coded system of Tarokh all can not obtain coding gain.Fig. 2 has provided the theory diagram of Alamouti STBC code coder.The Space-Time Block Coding that proposes with Alamouti below is an example, introduces the coding method of quadrature STBC.
Suppose with having 2 bThe planisphere of individual constellation point is modulated, and in encoding operation each time, one group of 2b information bit is mapped to signal constellation (in digital modulation), to select 2 modulation signal x 1And x 2With the Space Time Coding device 2 modulation signals are encoded, according to Alamouti Space-Time Block Coding encoder matrix
G 2 = x 1 x 2 - x 2 * x 1 * - - - ( 1 a )
Generate two length and be 2 parallel sequence.These two parallel sequences were launched through 2 antennas in 2 time cycles: in first cycle, and signal x 1And x 2Launch respectively from antenna 1 and 2 simultaneously; In second symbol period, signal-x 2 *And x 1 *Launch wherein () simultaneously respectively from antenna 1 and 2 *Conjugation is got in expression.
In general, STBC is by a p * N TTransmission matrix G define N wherein TBe number of transmit antennas, p is for sending the required symbol period number of a group code.Suppose with having 2 bThe planisphere of individual constellation point is modulated, and in encoding operation each time, the individual information bit of one group of kb (for Alamouti coding k=2) is mapped to signal constellation (in digital modulation), to select k modulation signal x 1, x 2..., x kThe STBC encoder is encoded to this k modulation signal, generates N according to transmission matrix G TIndividual length is the parallel signal sequences of p, and these sequences are passed through N TTransmit antennas is launched in p symbol period; In other words, for every group of k incoming symbol, every antenna will send p space-time symbol.The code check of STBC is defined as the ratio between the Space Time Coding symbolic number that symbolic number that encoder extracts in when input and antenna launch, and can be expressed as:
R=k/p (2)
For the Alamouti coding, so p=k=2 is its code check R=1.
Encoder matrix G 2Characteristic:
G 2 H G 2 = ρ 2 I 2 - - - ( 3 )
Wherein, ρ 2 = Σ i = 1 2 | x i | 2 , I 2The unit matrix of expression 2 * 2.
More generally, respectively be listed as mutually orthogonal space-time block code in the launching code matrix and be called the orthogonal space time group coding, can get the design criterion of the encoder matrix G of orthogonal space time group coding by this definition; Alamouti " Alamouti S M; ' and Oct 1998; 16, pp1451-1458 for A Simple Transmit Diversity Technique for WirelessCommunications ', IEEE J Select Areas Communication " in detailed introduction is arranged.
Two row that encoder matrix G is inequality arbitrarily, its inner product is zero, or is expressed as:
G H G = ρ p I N T - - - ( 4 )
Wherein ρ p = Σ i = 1 p | x i | 2 ,

Expression N T* N TUnit matrix.
Obviously, the emission diversity scheme G of Alamouti 2Be quadrature STBC sign indicating number, as number of transmit antennas N TA special case of=2 o'clock.The essence of quadrature STBC design is the orthogonality of launching code matrix, and this orthogonality is embodied in spatial domain and time-domain simultaneously.Utilize orthogonal design, can also design other quadrature STB sign indicating number.
No matter which kind of form encoder matrix is, the decoding of space-time block code all is to utilize its orthogonality, generally all adopts maximum likelihood decoding algorithm.
Receiving terminal adopts a reception antenna, and Alamouti scheme receiver principle block diagram is as shown in Figure 4.Constantly use h respectively to the channel fading coefficient of reception antenna at t from antenna 1 and 2 1(t) and h 2(t) expression.Suppose that fading coefficients is constant between two continuous symbol transmit cycles, then can be expressed as
h 1 ( t ) = h 1 ( t + T ) = h 1 = | h 1 | e j θ 1 - - - ( 5 a )
h 2 ( t ) = h 2 ( t + T ) = h 2 = | h 2 | e j θ 2 - - - ( 5 b )
Wherein, | h i| and θ i(i=1,2) are respectively amplitude gain and the phase shift of transmitting antenna i to reception antenna, and T is a symbol period.
At the reception antenna end, then corresponding received signal can be expressed as at t and t+T constantly:
r 1=r(t)=h 1x 1+h 2x 2+n 1 (6a)
r 2 = r ( t + T ) = h 1 x 2 * + h 2 x 1 * + n 2 - - - ( 6 b )
Wherein, n 1And n 2Be illustrated respectively in the sampling of the channel additive Gaussian noise that t and t+T receive constantly, the two is independent identically distributed complex random variable, and its average is zero, power spectral density is N 0/ 2.
Definition acknowledge(ment) signal vector r = [ r 1 , r 2 * ] , Coding vector x=[x 1, x 2] T, noise vector n=[n 1, n 2] T, then receive signal and can be rewritten into matrix form:
r=Hx+n (7)
Wherein, H is a channel matrix.
H = h 1 h 2 h 2 * - h 1 * - - - ( 8 )
Prove that easily H is an orthogonal matrix, promptly H = Σ i = 1 2 | h i | 2 I 2 . Because the orthogonality of orthogonal space time packet encoder matrix makes channel matrix also have orthogonality, this is a key property of orthogonal space time packet, has simplified its decode procedure greatly.
But the receiver of Alamouti scheme requires to obtain fully the channel fading coefficient h 1And h 2, its decoder need adopt the channel fading coefficient h 1And h 2Decode.Suppose that all signals all are equiprobable in the modulation constellation; Maximum likelihood decoder is to all possible

Channel matrix formula (8) substitution is received the signal formula, and maximum likelihood decoding can be expressed as:
( x ^ 1 , x ^ 2 ) = arg min ( x ^ 1 , x ^ 2 ) ∈ C ( | h 1 | 2 + | h 2 | 2 - 1 ) ( | x ^ 1 | 2 + | x ^ 2 | 2 ) + d 2 ( x ~ 1 , x ^ 1 ) + d 2 ( x ~ 2 , x ^ 2 ) - - - ( 10 )
Wherein C be modulation symbol to

This shows that Alamouti scheme receiver need be known definite channel information, need receiver that space channel is carried out parameter Estimation, this makes that the realization of MIMO receiver is complicated, and cost is high.
Existing 21 receipts and 22 receipts MIMO space-time coding/decoding systems all need receiver to know definite channel information; All need receiver that space channel is carried out parameter Estimation; This makes that the realization of MIMO receiver is complicated, and cost is high, and this realization for the MIMO travelling carriage is very difficult.

z 2 = r 1 a - r 2 a = 2 ( h 21 + h 22 ) x 2 + n 1 ( 1 ) + n 1 ( 2 ) - n 2 ( 1 ) - n 2 ( 2 ) - - - ( 22 b )
Because interchannel noise is generally white Gaussian noise,
n 1 ( 1 ) + n 1 ( 2 ) + n 2 ( 1 ) + n 2 ( 2 ) ≈ n 1 ( 1 ) / 4 ,
n 1 ( 1 ) + n 1 ( 2 ) - n 2 ( 1 ) - n 2 ( 2 ) ≈ n 2 ( 1 ) / 4
So
z 1 = 2 ( h 11 + h 12 ) x 1 + n 1 ( 1 ) / 4 - - - ( 22 a )
z 2 = 2 ( h 21 + h 22 ) x 2 + n 2 ( 1 ) / 4 - - - ( 22 b )
Can know that by formula (22a) with (22b) double antenna receiver according to the present invention has obtained 8 (h 11+ h 12) and 8 (h 21+ h 22) diversity gain, this 8 (h 11+ h 12) and 8 (h 21+ h 22) diversity gain can reduce the error rate of receiver greatly.
Visible by Fig. 8, although the present invention program's double antenna receiver does not have channel estimating, and do not adopt channel matrix to decode,, still obtain good ber curve, especially, behind SNR>14dB, the error rate is 0.
