Description

符号同步方法与装置、接收处理系统Symbol synchronization method and device, receiving and processing system

技术领域 technical field

本发明涉及通信技术,尤其是一种符号同步方法与装置、接收处理系统。  The invention relates to communication technology, in particular to a symbol synchronization method and device, and a receiving and processing system. the

背景技术 Background technique

正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing,以下简称:OFDM)通过将频率选择性多径衰落信道在频域内转换为平坦信道,从而减少多径衰落的影响,同时提高频谱利用率。但是OFDM系统对同步误差极为敏感,对时间同步的要求很高。频率同步方面,频率偏移会引入载波间干扰(Internal Channel Interference,以下简称:ICI),恶化每个子载波的信噪比,从而恶化整个通信系统的传输性能。帧同步的误差会引入符号间干扰(InterSymbol Interference,以下简称:ISI),也即:码间干扰,同时还会对信道估计带来严重的影响。现有的OFDM系统中,主要采用以下三类同步方式:符号定时同步、载波同步与采样钟同步。  Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) converts the frequency-selective multipath fading channel into a flat channel in the frequency domain, thereby reducing the impact of multipath fading and improving spectrum utilization. However, the OFDM system is extremely sensitive to synchronization errors and has high requirements for time synchronization. In terms of frequency synchronization, frequency offset will introduce Internal Channel Interference (ICI) and deteriorate the signal-to-noise ratio of each subcarrier, thus deteriorating the transmission performance of the entire communication system. Errors in frame synchronization will introduce InterSymbol Interference (InterSymbol Interference, hereinafter referred to as: ISI), that is, intersymbol interference, and will also have a serious impact on channel estimation. In the existing OFDM system, the following three types of synchronization methods are mainly adopted: symbol timing synchronization, carrier synchronization and sampling clock synchronization. the

要实现OFDM信号的同步,就需要找到OFDM符号的起始位置与载波偏移。OFDM调制技术是一种多载波技术,多载波系统对于定时偏差比单载波系统较为敏感。在OFDM系统与频域均衡的单载波(single carrierfrequency domain equalization,以下简称:SC-FDE)系统中,通过插入循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix,以下简称:CP)来消除多径带来的ISI。由于OFDM系统与SC-FDE系统采用了CP,当CP的长度大于信道的多径时延扩展时,在CP中将存在一个非干扰区,即无ISI区,在非干扰区中可以采用频域估计的方法校正有用信号的相位旋转。因此,在该非干扰区范围内,OFDM符号不会受到多径信道引起的来自上一个OFDM符号的ISI影响。在该非干扰区外,定时误差都会对OFDM系统与SC-FDE系统造成块间干扰(Inter Block Interference,以下简称:IBI)和ICI。与此同时,还会造成有用信号的衰减和相位旋转。更严重的是,它会严重影响信道估计器的性能,从而增加信道估计方差。  To realize OFDM signal synchronization, it is necessary to find the starting position and carrier offset of OFDM symbols. OFDM modulation technology is a multi-carrier technology, and multi-carrier systems are more sensitive to timing deviations than single-carrier systems. In the single carrier frequency domain equalization (single carrier frequency domain equalization, hereinafter referred to as: SC-FDE) system of the OFDM system and frequency domain equalization, the ISI caused by multipath is eliminated by inserting a cyclic prefix (Cyclic Prefix, hereinafter referred to as: CP). Since OFDM system and SC-FDE system adopt CP, when the length of CP is greater than the multipath delay extension of the channel, there will be a non-interference area in CP, that is, no ISI area, and frequency domain can be used in the non-interference area. The estimated method corrects for the phase rotation of the desired signal. Therefore, within the scope of the non-interference zone, the OFDM symbol will not be affected by the ISI from the previous OFDM symbol caused by the multipath channel. Outside the non-interference zone, timing errors will cause inter-block interference (Inter Block Interference, hereinafter referred to as: IBI) and ICI to the OFDM system and the SC-FDE system. At the same time, it will cause attenuation and phase rotation of useful signals. More seriously, it will seriously affect the performance of the channel estimator, thus increasing the channel estimation variance. the

现有技术中,通常采用残留符号间干扰消除(Residual Inter SymbolInterference Clutter,以下简称:RISIC)算法,将前后OFDM符号导致的IBI重构出来,并从相应的积分区间中的当前OFDM符号接收信号中减掉,以及将当前OFDM符号缺失的部分重构出来,并补入相应的积分区间的信号,从而抑制IBI与ICI。  In the prior art, the Residual Inter Symbol Interference Clutter (Residual Inter Symbol Interference Clutter, hereinafter referred to as: RISIC) algorithm is usually used to reconstruct the IBI caused by the preceding and following OFDM symbols, and from the received signal of the current OFDM symbol in the corresponding integration interval Subtract, and reconstruct the missing part of the current OFDM symbol, and fill in the signal of the corresponding integration interval, thereby suppressing IBI and ICI. the

但是现有技术采用RISIC算法抑制IBI与ICI时,在信道时延扩展超过CP长度的情况下,便无法有效实现OFDM符号的同步,从而降低了接收机的接收性能,例如:数据传输的误码率、误符号率或误块率性能。  However, when the existing technology uses the RISIC algorithm to suppress IBI and ICI, when the channel delay extension exceeds the CP length, the synchronization of OFDM symbols cannot be effectively realized, thereby reducing the receiving performance of the receiver, such as: bit errors in data transmission rate, symbol error rate, or block error rate performance. the

具体实施方式 Detailed ways

如图1所示,为多径信道接收信号的一个时序示意图。该图1以3条 径信号为例,给出了多径时延扩展下多径信道接收信号中的有用信号构成,并示出了前一个OFDM符号与后一个OFDM符号对当前OFDM符号造成的IBI。图1中,纵坐标h[m]表示多径信道,多径时延扩展最小径位置为mmin,最大的径位置为mmax。图1中,信号101、信号102与信号103分别表示径101、径102与径103对应的信号,为发送信号经过与各径时延相应的延迟所得。假设ms为第n个OFDM符号的快速傅里叶变换(fastFourier transform,以下简称:FFT)积分区间的起始位置,也即:符号定时位置,其中第n个OFDM符号也称为当前OFDM符号。图1中,横虚线104与105表示当前OFDM符号的前一个OFDM符号,横虚线106与107表示当前OFDM符号的后一个OFDM符号,横虚线104与105在[ms,ms+K-1]范围内构成的积分区间部分即为前一个OFDM符号对当前OFDM符号带来的IBI,横虚线106与107在[ms,ms+K-1]范围内构成的积分区间部分即为后一个OFDM符号对当前OFDM符号带来的IBI,对当前OFDM符号而言,上述两部分积分区间就是缺失的,从而使得该径对应的信号(也称为径信号)无法获得完整积分区间长度的当前OFDM符号,或者说对该径信号而言,CP就是残缺的,这就不能保证发送信号和信道间的循环卷积特性,这将会在频域导致ICI。对于径102对应的信号,由于在积分区间[ms,ms+K-1]内不存在前、后OFDM符号,因此不存在IBI和ICI。而对径101和径103对应的信号,则分别受到前一个OFDM符号和后一个OFDM符号的IBI,同时在频域都存在ICI。  As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic diagram of a timing sequence of a signal received by a multipath channel. Taking three-path signals as an example, Figure 1 shows the composition of useful signals in multi-path channel received signals under multi-path delay extension, and shows the effect of the previous OFDM symbol and the next OFDM symbol on the current OFDM symbol IBI. In FIG. 1 , the ordinate h[m] represents a multipath channel, the minimum path position of the multipath delay spread is m min , and the maximum path position is m max . In FIG. 1 , signal 101 , signal 102 and signal 103 respectively represent signals corresponding to path 101 , path 102 and path 103 , which are obtained by delaying the transmission signal corresponding to the time delay of each path. Suppose m s is the starting position of the fast Fourier transform (fastFourier transform, hereinafter referred to as: FFT) integration interval of the nth OFDM symbol, that is, the symbol timing position, where the nth OFDM symbol is also called the current OFDM symbol . In Fig. 1, horizontal dashed lines 104 and 105 represent the previous OFDM symbol of the current OFDM symbol, horizontal dashed lines 106 and 107 represent the next OFDM symbol of the current OFDM symbol, horizontal dashed lines 104 and 105 are in [m s , m s +K-1 ] is the IBI brought by the previous OFDM symbol to the current OFDM symbol, and the integral interval formed by the horizontal dotted lines 106 and 107 within the range of [m s , m s +K-1] is the subsequent For the IBI brought by an OFDM symbol to the current OFDM symbol, for the current OFDM symbol, the above two parts of the integration interval are missing, so that the signal corresponding to the path (also called the path signal) cannot obtain the current value of the complete integration interval length. OFDM symbols, or in other words, for the path signal, the CP is incomplete, which cannot guarantee the circular convolution characteristics between the transmitted signal and the channel, which will cause ICI in the frequency domain. For the signal corresponding to path 102, since there are no front and back OFDM symbols in the integration interval [m s , m s +K-1], there is no IBI and ICI. The signals corresponding to path 101 and path 103 are subjected to the IBI of the previous OFDM symbol and the next OFDM symbol respectively, and ICI exists in the frequency domain at the same time.

本发明的实施例中,以总残留干扰能量中最小干扰能量对应的起始位置作为符号定时值,对发送端发送的信号进行符号同步,从而在信道时延扩展超过CP长度的情况下,减小IBI消除和ICI重构补偿后的残留干扰能量,从而有效实现OFDM符号的同步,提高接收机的接收性能,例如:提高数据传输的误码率、误符号率或误块率性能等。本发明实施例提供的 方法、装置和系统可以适用于任意通信系统,例如:OFDM系统或SC-FDE系统中,由于多径时延扩展长度大于CP长度导致CP不足且接收机中采用了RISIC算法时的符号同步。  In the embodiment of the present invention, the starting position corresponding to the minimum interference energy in the total residual interference energy is used as the symbol timing value to perform symbol synchronization on the signal sent by the transmitting end, so that when the channel delay extension exceeds the CP length, the The residual interference energy after small IBI elimination and ICI reconstruction compensation can effectively realize the synchronization of OFDM symbols and improve the receiving performance of the receiver, such as improving the bit error rate, symbol error rate or block error rate performance of data transmission. The method, device and system provided by the embodiments of the present invention can be applied to any communication system, for example: in an OFDM system or a SC-FDE system, due to the fact that the multipath delay extension length is greater than the CP length, the CP is insufficient and the RISIC algorithm is used in the receiver Symbol synchronization at time. the

以σn 2作为接收机针对第n个OFDM符号反馈的估计方差。本发明该实施例中以第n个OFDM符号作为当前OFDM符号。  Take σ n 2 as the estimated variance fed back by the receiver for the nth OFDM symbol. In this embodiment of the present invention, the nth OFDM symbol is used as the current OFDM symbol.

而针对OFDM符号反馈的估计方差也称为判决反馈符号的估计方差。其中,接收机可以通过多种检测方法获得针对所有OFDM符号反馈的估计方差,例如:通过判决反馈方法,可以同时得到OFDM符号反馈的估计方差,该估计方差可用以表征该接收机判决反馈的可靠性。具体地,本实施例中的接收机可以是OFDM接收机。  The estimated variance for OFDM symbol feedback is also referred to as the estimated variance of decision feedback symbols. Among them, the receiver can obtain the estimated variance for all OFDM symbol feedback through a variety of detection methods, for example: through the decision feedback method, the estimated variance of the OFDM symbol feedback can be obtained at the same time, and the estimated variance can be used to characterize the reliability of the receiver decision feedback sex. Specifically, the receiver in this embodiment may be an OFDM receiver. the

OFDM接收机一般由检测器和译码器两部分组成,因此,接收机一般有两种相应的反馈方式:一种是“迭代接收机”反馈,也即译码反馈,可以称为外迭代;一种是块判决反馈,也即检测器内迭代。  OFDM receivers are generally composed of detectors and decoders. Therefore, receivers generally have two corresponding feedback methods: one is "iterative receiver" feedback, that is, decoding feedback, which can be called outer iteration; One is block decision feedback, that is, iteration within the detector. the

以下以译码反馈为例,说明判决反馈符号的估计方差的获得方式。其中,判决反馈符号的估计方差也称为OFDM符号的判决反馈值。在初次迭代中,除当前OFDM符号是第一个OFDM符号外,对当前第n个OFDM符号,可以获得其前一个OFDM符号的判决反馈值。前一个OFDM符号的估计方差σn-1 2可以由OFDM接收机中的检测器在判决该前一个OFDM符号时的同时估计得到。此时,当前OFDM符号和其后一个OFDM符号的判决反馈值还无法得到,可以假设 σ n 2 = σ n + 1 2 = σ s 2 , 即:当前OFDM符号及其后一个OFDM符号的估计方差等于发送时域符号的功率σs 2。在后续迭代中,当前OFDM符号的判决反馈值可以是前一次迭代的判决反馈值,也可以是本次迭代中更新后的检测器判决值,只要由OFDM接收机估计得到相应的判决反馈符号的估计方差σn-1 2,而对当前OFDM符号和其后的OFDM符号,均可以由前一次迭代得到判决反馈值,前一次迭代在得到该判决反馈值时,同时估计得到对应的符号估计方差σn 2和σn+1 2一并反馈给本次迭代的符号同步装置。  The decoding feedback is taken as an example below to describe how to obtain the estimated variance of the decision feedback symbols. Wherein, the estimated variance of the decision feedback symbol is also referred to as the decision feedback value of the OFDM symbol. In the first iteration, except that the current OFDM symbol is the first OFDM symbol, for the current nth OFDM symbol, the decision feedback value of the previous OFDM symbol can be obtained. The estimated variance σ n-1 2 of the previous OFDM symbol can be estimated by the detector in the OFDM receiver while judging the previous OFDM symbol. At this time, the decision feedback value of the current OFDM symbol and the next OFDM symbol is not available yet, it can be assumed that σ no 2 = σ no + 1 2 = σ the s 2 , That is: the estimated variance of the current OFDM symbol and the subsequent OFDM symbol is equal to the power σ s 2 of the transmitted time-domain symbol. In subsequent iterations, the decision feedback value of the current OFDM symbol can be the decision feedback value of the previous iteration, or the updated detector decision value in this iteration, as long as the corresponding decision feedback symbol is estimated by the OFDM receiver Estimated variance σ n-1 2 , and for the current OFDM symbol and subsequent OFDM symbols, the decision feedback value can be obtained from the previous iteration, and the corresponding symbol estimation variance is estimated at the same time when the decision feedback value is obtained in the previous iteration σ n 2 and σ n+1 2 are fed back to the symbol synchronization device of this iteration.

此外,需要说明的是,对第一个OFDM符号,可以不进行IBI消除。  In addition, it should be noted that for the first OFDM symbol, IBI elimination may not be performed. the

304,根据预设起始位置集合或者量化后的起始位置集合中的所有FFT 积分区间的起始位置ms、各径的位置信息与功率信息以及针对所有OFDM符号反馈的估计方差,分别获取当前OFDM符号中所有径的总残留干扰能量。  304. According to the preset start position set or the start position m s of all FFT integration intervals in the quantized start position set, the position information and power information of each path, and the estimated variance for all OFDM symbol feedback, respectively obtain The total residual interference energy of all paths in the current OFDM symbol.

针对预设起始位置集合或者量化后的起始位置集合中的所有FFT积分区间的每一个起始位置ms,可以分别获得一个当前OFDM符号中所有径的总残留干扰能量。  For each starting position m s of all FFT integration intervals in the preset starting position set or the quantized starting position set, the total residual interference energy of all paths in a current OFDM symbol can be obtained respectively.

本发明实施例中,获取当前OFDM符号中所有径的总残留干扰能量的方式有多种,可以是 ϵ ( m s ) = Σ i l i ( m s ) | γ i | 2 , 也可以进一步对上述公式进一步变型,例如可以如下:  In the embodiment of the present invention, there are many ways to obtain the total residual interference energy of all paths in the current OFDM symbol, which can be ϵ ( m the s ) = Σ i l i ( m the s ) | γ i | 2 , It is also possible to further modify the above formula, for example, it may be as follows:

&epsiv;&epsiv; (( mm sthe s )) == &Sigma;&Sigma; ii ll ii (( mm sthe s )) || &gamma;&gamma; ii || 22 == (( &sigma;&sigma; nno 22 ++ &sigma;&sigma; nno ++ 11 22 )) &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii << mm sthe s -- NN GG (( mm sthe s -- NN GG -- mm ii )) || &gamma;&gamma; ii || 22 ++ (( &sigma;&sigma; nno 22 ++ &sigma;&sigma; nno ++ 11 22 )) &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm sthe s (( mm ii -- mm sthe s )) || &gamma;&gamma; ii || 22 -- -- -- (( 44 ))

式(4)中,ε(ms)为当前OFDM符号中所有径的总残留干扰能量,ms为第n个OFDM符号的符号定时位置,li(ms)表示符号定时位置为ms时第i径的干扰能量,NG为循环前缀CP长度。  In formula (4), ε(m s ) is the total residual interference energy of all paths in the current OFDM symbol, m s is the symbol timing position of the nth OFDM symbol, l i (m s ) means that the symbol timing position is m s When is the interference energy of the i-th path, N G is the length of the cyclic prefix CP.

305,获取总残留干扰能量中的最小干扰能量minε(mi),并根据io=argminε(mi),获取该最小干扰能量minε(mi)对应的起始位置mo。  305. Obtain the minimum interference energy minε(m i ) in the total residual interference energy, and obtain the starting position m o corresponding to the minimum interference energy minε(m i ) according to i o =argminε(m i ).

其中, m o = m i o , argminε(mi)表示使得ε(mi)最小的参数。  in, m o = m i o , argminε(m i ) represents a parameter that minimizes ε(m i ).

306,以总残留干扰能量中最小干扰能量对应的起始位置mo作为符号定时值,对接收信号进行符号同步。  306. Using the starting position m o corresponding to the minimum interference energy in the total residual interference energy as the symbol timing value, perform symbol synchronization on the received signal.

通过本发明上述实施例所示的符号同步方法,对接收信号进行后续的IBI消除、接收信号中缺失的CP部分的重构与补偿、以及接收处理等一系列操作处理。  Through the symbol synchronization method shown in the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, a series of operations such as subsequent IBI elimination, reconstruction and compensation of the missing CP part in the received signal, and receiving processing are performed on the received signal. the

如果仅考虑当前OFDM符号的前一个OFDM符号、后一个OFDM符号所导致的IBI,则接收信号可以表示为:  If only considering the IBI caused by the previous OFDM symbol and the next OFDM symbol of the current OFDM symbol, the received signal can be expressed as:

rr [[ mm ++ nNn ]] == &Sigma;&Sigma; ll == -- 1,0,11,0,1 hh [[ mm ]] xx nno ++ ll [[ mm ++ nNn -- (( nno ++ ll )) NN ]] ++ nno [[ mm ++ nNn ]]

== &Sigma;&Sigma; ii &gamma;&gamma; ii xx nno [[ mm -- mm ii ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii xx nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]]

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii xx nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] ++ nno [[ mm ++ nNn ]] ,, -- -- -- (( 55 ))

式(5)中,n[g]表示高斯白噪声。  In formula (5), n[g] represents Gaussian white noise. the

xx ^^ nno [[ mm ]] == &Sigma;&Sigma; kk == 00 KK -- 11 sthe s ^^ nno [[ kk ]] ee -- jj 22 &pi;km&pi;km KK -- -- -- (( 66 ))

式(6)中,0≤m<N,其中,N=K+NG其中,K为FFT积分区间长度,NG为CP长度。符号同步就是在0≤m<N中确定FFT积分区间的起始位置。  In formula (6), 0≦m<N, where N=K+N G where K is the length of the FFT integration interval, and N G is the length of the CP. Symbol synchronization is to determine the starting position of the FFT integration interval in 0≤m<N.

首先利用除当前OFDM符号外的其它OFDM符号的判决反馈值

重构出当前OFDM符号所受到的IBI,公式(1)中的 
Figure G2009102218700D00108
并从第n个OFDM符号的接收信号中减去所受到的IBI,得到:  First, use the decision feedback values of other OFDM symbols except the current OFDM symbol
Figure G2009102218700D00107
Reconstruct the IBI received by the current OFDM symbol, in the formula (1)
Figure G2009102218700D00108
and subtract the experienced IBI from the received signal of the nth OFDM symbol to obtain:

rr ^^ nno [[ mm ]] == rr [[ mm ++ nNn ]] -- hh [[ mm ]] ** &Sigma;&Sigma; ll &NotEqual;&NotEqual; nno xx ^^ ll [[ mm ++ nNn -- lNn ]]

== rr [[ mm ++ nNn ]] -- &Sigma;&Sigma; ii &Sigma;&Sigma; ll &NotEqual;&NotEqual; nno &gamma;&gamma; ii xx ^^ ll [[ mm -- mm ii ++ nNn -- lNn ]] -- -- -- (( 77 ))

式(7)中,m的范围为-N1≤m<N+N2,其中-N1和N2分别为等效离散信道的首径位置与末径位置。需要说明的是,判决反馈值 

Figure G2009102218700D001011
一般由接收机通过块判决反馈或迭代接收技术获得,一般情况下,当前OFDM符号所受到的IBI主要是其前、后OFDM符号导致的IBI,同时,当m<0或 m>N时,xl[m]和 
Figure G2009102218700D00111
均为0,因此式(7)可以简化为:  In formula (7), the range of m is -N 1 ≤ m<N+N 2 , where -N 1 and N 2 are the head path position and the end path position of the equivalent discrete channel respectively. It should be noted that the decision feedback value
Figure G2009102218700D001011
Generally, it is obtained by the receiver through block decision feedback or iterative receiving technology. Generally, the IBI received by the current OFDM symbol is mainly the IBI caused by its previous and subsequent OFDM symbols. At the same time, when m<0 or m>N, x l [m] and
Figure G2009102218700D00111
are all 0, so formula (7) can be simplified as:

rr ^^ nno [[ mm ]] == rr [[ mm ++ nNn ]] -- &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii xx ^^ nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]] -- &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii xx ^^ nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] -- -- -- (( 88 ))

将式(5)代入式(8),可以得到IBI消除后的接收信号:  Substituting formula (5) into formula (8), the received signal after IBI cancellation can be obtained:

rr ^^ nno [[ mm ]] == &Sigma;&Sigma; ii &gamma;&gamma; ii xx nno [[ mm -- mm ii ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii (( xx nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]] -- xx ^^ nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]] ))

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii (( xx nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] -- xx ^^ nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] )) ++ nno [[ mm ++ nNn ]]

== &Sigma;&Sigma; ii &gamma;&gamma; ii xx nno [[ mm -- mm ii ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii ee nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]]

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii ee nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] ++ nno [[ mm ++ nNn ]] -- -- -- (( 99 ))

式(9)中,el[m]表示针对n个OFDM符号中第l个OFDM符号的第m个判决反馈符号的估计方差,可以通过 e l [ m ] = x l [ m ] - x ^ l [ m ] 得到。具体地,可以由块间干扰消除装置重构出当前OFDM符号所受到的IBI并通过式(7)或式(9)进行IBI消除。  In formula (9), e l [m] represents the estimated variance of the mth decision feedback symbol for the lth OFDM symbol in the n OFDM symbols, which can be obtained by e l [ m ] = x l [ m ] - x ^ l [ m ] get. Specifically, the IBI experienced by the current OFDM symbol can be reconstructed by the inter-block interference elimination device, and IBI elimination can be performed by formula (7) or formula (9).

进一步的,由于OFDM系统通过CP作用,保证了时域信道矩阵的循环矩阵特性,从而进一步保证了频域不存在ICI。以图1为例,由于径101和径103对应的信号101和信号103中的CP是残缺的,这在频域导致了ICI。RISIC算法利用当前OFDM符号自身的判决反馈值 

Figure G2009102218700D00118
该判决值 
Figure G2009102218700D00119
具体可以由接收机通过块判决反馈或迭代接收技术获得,重构出信号中缺失的CP部分,并补入如式(9)所示IBI消除后的接收信号中,进一步得到CP补偿后的接收信号,该接收信号为时域信号:  Furthermore, since the OFDM system guarantees the cyclic matrix characteristic of the channel matrix in the time domain through the function of the CP, it further ensures that there is no ICI in the frequency domain. Taking FIG. 1 as an example, since the CPs in signals 101 and 103 corresponding to paths 101 and 103 are incomplete, this leads to ICI in the frequency domain. The RISIC algorithm uses the decision feedback value of the current OFDM symbol itself
Figure G2009102218700D00118
the judgment value
Figure G2009102218700D00119
Specifically, it can be obtained by the receiver through block decision feedback or iterative reception technology, reconstruct the missing CP part in the signal, and fill it into the received signal after IBI cancellation as shown in equation (9), and further obtain the received signal after CP compensation signal, the received signal is a time-domain signal:

rr ^^ nno [[ mm ]] == rr ^^ nno [[ mm ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii xx ^^ nno [[ KK ++ mm -- mm ii ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii xx ^^ nno [[ mm -- mm ii -- KK ]]

== rr [[ mm ++ nNn ]] ++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii (( xx ^^ nno [[ KK ++ mm -- mm ii ]] -- xx ^^ nno -- 11 [[ NN ++ mm -- mm ii ]] ))

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii (( xx ^^ nno [[ mm -- mm ii -- KK ]] -- xx ^^ nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] )) ,, -- -- -- (( 1010 ))

式(10)中,第一个等号右边第二项与第三项分别为缺失的CP部分 在当前OFDM符号左端和右端的重构项。第二个等号右边第二项为对来自当前OFDM符号的前一个OFDM符号的IBI消除以及对左端缺失的CP部分进行的重构补偿,第三项表示对来自当前OFDM符号的后一个OFDM符号的IBI消除以及对右端缺失的CP部分进行的重构补偿。其中,ms≤m<ms+K,对应着FFT积分窗内的符号。具体地,可以由循环前缀重构装置,通过式(10)进行CP的重构与补偿,并将CP重构、补偿后的时域信号发送给接收机。  In formula (10), the second and third items on the right side of the first equal sign are respectively the reconstruction items of the missing CP part at the left end and right end of the current OFDM symbol. The second item on the right side of the second equal sign is the IBI cancellation of the previous OFDM symbol from the current OFDM symbol and the reconstruction compensation for the missing CP part at the left end, and the third item represents the next OFDM symbol from the current OFDM symbol The IBI elimination and reconstruction compensation for the missing CP part at the right end. Among them, m s ≤ m<m s +K corresponds to the sign in the FFT integration window. Specifically, the CP reconstruction and compensation can be performed by the CP reconstruction device through formula (10), and the time-domain signal after the CP reconstruction and compensation is sent to the receiver.

对接收信号进行CP重构与补偿后,接收机可以CP补偿后的信号进行FFT,将时域信号转换为频域信号,并对该频域信号进行接收处理,例如:解调、译码等,产生针对所有OFDM符号反馈的估计方差以用于符号同步,产生当前OFDM符号的前、后OFDM符号的判决值以用于IBI的重构与消除,以及产生当前OFDM符号的判决值以用于CP的重构与补偿。  After CP reconstruction and compensation of the received signal, the receiver can perform FFT on the CP compensated signal, convert the time domain signal into a frequency domain signal, and perform reception processing on the frequency domain signal, such as demodulation, decoding, etc. , generate the estimated variance for all OFDM symbol feedback for symbol synchronization, generate the decision value of the front and rear OFDM symbols of the current OFDM symbol for the reconstruction and elimination of IBI, and generate the decision value of the current OFDM symbol for CP reconstruction and compensation. the

首先来分析一下由于反馈的针对所有OFDM符号反馈的估计方差对式(10)中IBI消除和CP重构、补偿性能的影响。引入 e l [ m ] = x l [ m ] - x ^ l [ m ] 表示第l个OFDM符号的第m个判决反馈时域符号的估计方差,则式(10)可以表示为:  Firstly, the influence of the feedback estimation variance for all OFDM symbols on the performance of IBI elimination, CP reconstruction and compensation in formula (10) is analyzed. introduce e l [ m ] = x l [ m ] - x ^ l [ m ] Represent the estimated variance of the mth decision feedback time-domain symbol of the lth OFDM symbol, then formula (10) can be expressed as:

Figure G2009102218700D00122
Figure G2009102218700D00122

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm &gamma;&gamma; ii (( ee nno -- 11 [[ mm -- mm ii ++ NN ]] -- ee nno [[ mm -- mm ii ++ KK ]] ))

++ &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii &le;&le; mm -- NN &gamma;&gamma; ii (( ee nno ++ 11 [[ mm -- mm ii -- NN ]] -- ee nno [[ mm -- mm ii -- KK ]] )) ++ nno [[ mm ++ nNn ]] ,, -- -- -- (( 1111 ))

式(11)中,等号右边的第一行表示目标信号部分,即:第n个符号,由于该目标信号部分中不存在IBI,同时对缺失的CP部分也进行了重构、补偿,因此满足了循环卷积特性。其它部分,也即:第二行与第三行所示部分,是由于判决反馈值存在错误或误差所导致的残留IBI和非理想CP重构部分。在理想信道估计的前提下,如果反馈的判决值完全准确,则第 二行与第三行所示部分可以完全消除,也就是说IBI和ICI能够被理想消除。但实际应用中,反馈符号的估计方差是不可避免的。本发明实施例可以在一定的反馈符号的估计方差的情况下,最小化残留的IBI和ICI能量,最大化地消除IBI和ICI。  In formula (11), the first line on the right side of the equal sign represents the target signal part, that is, the nth symbol. Since there is no IBI in the target signal part, and the missing CP part is also reconstructed and compensated, so Satisfies the circular convolution property. The other parts, that is, the parts shown in the second row and the third row, are residual IBI and non-ideal CP reconstruction parts caused by errors or errors in decision feedback values. On the premise of ideal channel estimation, if the feedback decision value is completely accurate, the parts shown in the second row and the third row can be completely eliminated, that is to say, IBI and ICI can be ideally eliminated. But in practical applications, the estimated variance of the feedback symbols is unavoidable. The embodiments of the present invention can minimize the residual IBI and ICI energy and maximize the elimination of the IBI and ICI under the condition of a certain estimated variance of the feedback symbols. the

根据式(11),可以得到各径信号中的残留干扰能量,对时延为mi个样点的径信号,其残留干扰能量为:  According to formula (11), the residual interference energy in each path signal can be obtained. For a path signal with a time delay of m i samples, the residual interference energy is:

ll ii (( mm sthe s )) == (( mm sthe s -- NN GG -- mm ii )) (( &sigma;&sigma; nno 22 ++ &sigma;&sigma; nno ++ 11 22 )) mm ii << mm sthe s -- NN GG ,, 00 mm sthe s -- NN GG &le;&le; mm ii &le;&le; mm sthe s (( mm ii -- mm sthe s )) (( &sigma;&sigma; nno 22 ++ &sigma;&sigma; nno -- 11 22 )) mm ii >> mm sthe s .. -- -- -- (( 1212 ))

由式(12)可知各径残留干扰能量是符号定时位置ms的函数。其中,σn 2为第n个OFDM符号的估计方差,也称为误差,依此类推。  It can be seen from formula (12) that the residual interference energy of each path is a function of the symbol timing position m s . Among them, σ n 2 is the estimated variance of the nth OFDM symbol, also called error, and so on.

由此可以得到当前OFDM符号中所有径总的残留干扰能量如式(4)所示。由于估计方差σn-1 2、σn 2和σn+1 2由接收机的检测性能决定,信道因子γi获取各径的功率信息|γi|2由信道估计装置的性能决定,因此,总的残留的IBI和ICI能量由当前OFDM符号的定时位置ms唯一确定。将总残留干扰能量ε(ms)最小时的定时位置ms作为确定的符号定时 m o = m i o , 即可以最小化干扰抑制后的残留干扰能量ε(ms),即:将干扰抑制后的残留干扰能量ε(ms)降低到最小。根据式(4)可知,最小化残留干扰能量ε(ms)时的ms,也即:  m o = m i o , 被包括在各径时延位置集合{mi}中。  Thus, the total residual interference energy of all paths in the current OFDM symbol can be obtained, as shown in formula (4). Since the estimated variances σ n-1 2 , σ n 2 and σ n+1 2 are determined by the detection performance of the receiver, and the channel factor γ i obtains the power information of each path |γ i | 2 is determined by the performance of the channel estimation device, so , the total residual IBI and ICI energy is uniquely determined by the timing position m s of the current OFDM symbol. The timing position m s when the total residual interference energy ε(m s ) is minimum is taken as the determined symbol timing m o = m i o , That is, the residual interference energy ε(m s ) after interference suppression can be minimized, that is, the residual interference energy ε(m s ) after interference suppression can be reduced to the minimum. According to formula (4), it can be seen that m s when minimizing the residual interference energy ε(m s ), that is: m o = m i o , is included in the set of delay positions {m i } for each path.

由于迭代需要保证收敛性,通常情况下,在RISIC的迭代处理方法中,本次迭代中当前OFDM符号块及其后一个OFDM符号块的估计方差相同,而与其前一个OFDM符号块的符号估计方差不同,即: &sigma; n - 1 2 &le; &sigma; n 2 = &sigma; n + 1 2 , 定义 &sigma; b 2 = &sigma; n - 1 2 , &sigma; a 2 = &sigma; n 2 = &sigma; n + 1 2 , 式(4)可以简化为:  Since the iteration needs to ensure convergence, usually, in the RISIC iterative processing method, the estimated variance of the current OFDM symbol block and the subsequent OFDM symbol block in this iteration is the same, while the symbol estimation variance of the previous OFDM symbol block is different, namely: &sigma; no - 1 2 &le; &sigma; no 2 = &sigma; no + 1 2 , definition &sigma; b 2 = &sigma; no - 1 2 , &sigma; a 2 = &sigma; no 2 = &sigma; no + 1 2 , Formula (4) can be simplified as:

&epsiv;&epsiv; (( mm sthe s )) == 22 &sigma;&sigma; aa 22 &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii << mm aa -- NN GG (( mm sthe s -- NN GG -- mm ii )) || &gamma;&gamma; ii || 22 ++ (( &sigma;&sigma; aa 22 ++ &sigma;&sigma; bb 22 )) &Sigma;&Sigma; mm ii >> mm aa (( mm ii -- mm sthe s )) || &gamma;&gamma; ii || 22 -- -- -- (( 1313 ))

此时,可以通过式(13)获取当前OFDM符号中所有径的总残留干 扰能量。然后通过io=argminε(mi)获取总残留干扰能量中的最小干扰能量,并获取该最小干扰能量对应的起始位置位置mo作为符号定时值,对接收信号进行符号同步。  At this time, the total residual interference energy of all paths in the current OFDM symbol can be obtained by formula (13). Then obtain the minimum interference energy in the total residual interference energy by i o =argminε(m i ), and obtain the starting position m o corresponding to the minimum interference energy as the symbol timing value, and perform symbol synchronization on the received signal.
