Embodiment
Describe the present invention in detail below with reference to accompanying drawing and in conjunction with the embodiments.It should be noted that not conflicting In the case of, the feature in embodiment and embodiment in the application can be mutually combined.
Fig. 1 is the flow chart of cooperative diversity system beamforming method according to embodiments of the present invention.As shown in figure 1, root Include according to the cooperative diversity system beamforming method of the embodiment of the present invention:
Step S102, three subframes are divided into by a TDMA frame, and the shared subframe of two user terminals carries out information biography It is defeated;
Step S104, the signal that three subframes of a TDMA frame are received and sent is determined according to trunk protocol;
Step S106, the combined signal received according to equivalent channel model to different subframes carries out processing and determined finally Receive and send signal;
Step S108, the cooperative diversity system beam forming of user terminal is completed according to final reception and transmission signal.
This fact Example proposes a kind of new TDMA mechanism, in the present embodiment, and a TDMA frame is divided into three sons Frame.Effectively to utilize system resource, the first user terminal (U1) and second user end (U2) have shared same subframe.In now Time and bandwidth resources can be shared after transmission, so this division methods bandwidth efficiency is higher.For each user, channel is certainly 2/3 is increased by spending from 1/2, the channel capacity of user can be so greatly improved.From the perspective of base station, the time can be saved Resource is cooperated for more users, so as to improve power system capacity.
In above-mentioned new TDMA mechanism, existing trunk protocol can all continue application, but in order to overcome existing relaying Consultation makes the problem of systematic function is reduced, and this preferred embodiment proposes a kind of new trunk protocol.Preferably, above-mentioned relaying association View can include at least one of:AF agreements, DF agreements, SDF agreements, the SDF agreements using base station feedback information, wherein, Included using the SDF agreements of base station feedback information:
If decoding is correct mutually at two collaboration user ends, buddy information is sent mutually in the 3rd subframe;
If a user terminal decoding is correct, another decoding error then decodes correct user terminal in the 3rd subframe Buddy information is sent, the user terminal of decoding error keeps silent;
If two equal decoding errors of user terminal, retransmit the information of oneself in the 3rd subframe.
The difference fed back using the SDF consultations of base station end feedback information according to base station end carries out different processing:If Decoding is correct mutually for two collaboration users, and they send buddy information in the 3rd time slot;If user's decoding is correct, another Individual decoding error, the former can send buddy information in the 3rd time slot, but the latter can keep silent;If two with decoding per family Mistake, to better profit from channel width, base station will notify two users to retransmit the information of oneself by feedback channel, the feedback Information can be realized by a bit.Above-mentioned new SDF agreements, when channel is poor between user, will not bring performance for cooperation Loss, because when dual-purpose decoding failure per family, base station can notify two users to retransmit the information of oneself respectively.
Preferably, above-mentioned equivalent channel model can include:Virtual MIMO system.
The corresponding equivalent channel model of different trunk protocols can be otherwise varied, but most cooperative diversity systems can Virtual mimo system is equivalent to, therefore when from channel model, preferentially from virtual MIMO system.

When using the above-mentioned SDF agreements by the use of base station feedback information as trunk protocol, corresponding collaboration diversity condition It is not just uniquely, when carrying out cooperative diversity system beam forming, to first have to determine corresponding collaboration diversity condition, then Cost function is obtained again, is generated optimal wiener solution, is finally completed cooperative diversity system beam forming.
Preferably, above-mentioned collaboration diversity condition can be one below:
Decoding is correct mutually for first user terminal and second user end, and in the 3rd subframe, the first user terminal sends x2, second uses Family end sends x1, now,

The equal decoding failure of first user terminal and second user end, in the 3rd subframe, the first user terminal and second user end point The information x of oneself is not retransmitted1And x2, now,
Wherein, x1The signal sent for the first user terminal in the first subframe nth symbol interval, x2For second user end The signal sent in the second subframe nth symbol interval,WithIt is that the first user terminal and second user end are divided in the 3rd subframe The estimate for the buddy information not sent.
This preferred embodiment gives a kind of preferably collaboration diversity condition, cover it is all it can happen that.
Above preferred embodiment is described in detail with reference to example.
Two users' diversity cooperative system structure of this example is as shown in Fig. 2 this example is using the new of above-described embodiment proposition TDMA mechanism.As shown in Figure 3, it is assumed that TDMA frame takes N number of mark space, traditional framework based on TDMA and its corresponding Send and receive in mode such as Fig. 2 shown in (a).In this TDMA mechanism, a complete TDMA frame is divided into four sons Frame:First subframe belongs to U1 information, and second subframe belongs to U2 trunk information, in two subsequent subframes, U1 and U2 role is exchanged.Above-mentioned new TDMA mechanism is as shown such as (b) in Fig. 2, and now a TDMA frame is divided into three Subframe.From unlike traditional mechanism, U1 and U2 have shared same subframe.Because now relay transmission can be shared time and bandwidth Resource, this division methods bandwidth efficiency is higher.For each user, the channel free degree increases 2/3 from 1/2, so The channel capacity of user can be greatly improved.From the perspective of base station, time resource can be saved and cooperated for more users, So as to improve power system capacity.
Further, in this example, each user can use any modulation system;By two or many antennas of configuration Base station, which is provided, receives diversity, using the multi-antenna signal processing technology such as beam forming;Using AF and DF and its deformation etc. it is various in After agreement, including above-mentioned new SDF agreements:If decoding is correct mutually for two collaboration users, they send in the 3rd time slot The information of partner;If user's decoding is correct, another decoding error, the former can send partner's letter in the 3rd time slot Breath, but the latter can keep silent;If two use decoding error per family, to better profit from channel width, base station will be by anti- Feedback two users of channel notification retransmit the information of oneself, and the feedback information can be realized by a bit.
We analyze base station using two antennas, when relaying is using AF and above-mentioned new SDF agreements, cooperative system now Low-pass equivalent, time discrete channel model.It is assumed that all channels are all frequency-flat declines and quasi-static, i.e., channel fading exists Kept in one TDMA frame constant.All channels are independent mutually.System is Complete Synchronization.Know complete channel status in base station Information CSI (Channel State Information, channel condition information), but user do not know.
For convenience of describing, in following expression formula, time variable n is eliminated.The label declaration used is as follows:
ri(j), i ∈ { 1,2, d }, j ∈ { 1,2,3 } represent the reception signal of user or base station in time slot j, ni(j) it is phase The additive noise answered and interference;rd,i(j), i ∈ { 1,2 }, j ∈ { 1,2,3 } represent i-th antenna connecing in time slot j of base station The collection of letters number, nd,i(j) it is corresponding noise and interference;hik(j), i, k ∈ { 1,2 }, j ∈ { 1,2,3 } are user i to k in time slot j Interior channel fading coefficient;hid,k(j), i, k ∈ { 1,2 }, j ∈ { 1,2,3 } be user i to base station antenna k in time slot j Channel fading coefficient.In statistical significance, hikAnd h (j)id,k(j) it is that average is 0, independent, circle symmetric complex becomes at random Amount;niAnd n (j)d,i(j) it is also that average is 0, independent, circle symmetric complex stochastic variable, and variance is N0
In the first time slot, U1 sends signal, U2 and base station received signal.It is assumed that U1 sends x in nth symbol interval1, Then U2 and the signal of base station reception are respectively:
r2(1)=h12(1)x1+n2(1) (1)
In the second time slot, U1 and U2 role exchange.It is assumed that U2 sends x in nth symbol interval2, similarly, U1 With base station receive signal be respectively:
r1(2)=h21(2)x2+n1(2) (3)
In the 3rd time slot, when U1 and U2 uses different trunk protocols, the information that base station is received also can correspondingly occur Change.We illustrate by AF and exemplified by putting forward SDF agreements respectively below.
In the 3rd time slot, U1 and U2 are respectively to transmission simultaneously after the signal amplification that is respectively received, i.e.,
Wherein α1And α2It is gain amplification coefficient, it is assumed that transmission signal power normalization is 1, is taken
By (2), (4) and (5) are combined into vector, and make r=[rd(3),rd(2),rd(1)]T, x=[x1,x2]T, then have:
R=Hx+n (6)
Wherein,
It can be seen that from (6), when base station is handled the combined signal that different time-gap is received, the collaboration diversity System can be equivalent to the virtual MIMO system that one 2 hair 6 is received.
SDF agreements be by basic DF protocol evolutions Lai, therefore we first discuss U1 and U2 use DF trunk protocols When, the signal that base station is received.Now U1 and U2 sends the estimate of buddy information in the 3rd time slot respectively, i.e.,With
When channel is bad between user, the estimate of mistake is obtained using DF consultations, causes error propagation.And carried SDF agreements can avoid error propagation, when using this agreement, and the cooperation between two users has four kinds of situations:
1st, situation 1:Decoding is correct mutually by U1 and U2.In time slot three, U1 sends x2, U2 transmissions x1.Now, rd(3) expression Formula is similar with (7), simply
2nd, situation 2:U1 decodes correct but U2 decoding errors.In time slot three, U1 sends x2, U2 holding silences.Now, rd(3) Expression formula it is similar with (5), simply α2=0.
3rd, situation 3:U2 decodes correct but U1 decoding errors.In time slot three, U2 sends x1, U1 holding silences.Now, rd(3) Expression formula it is similar with (5), simply α1=0.
4th, situation 4:The equal decoding failures of U1 and U2.In time slot three, base station notifies U1 and U2 to retransmit the information x of oneself respectively1 And x2.Now, rd(3) expression formula is similar with (7), can be equivalent to
Determine how to carry out cooperative diversity system beam forming in above-mentioned diversity cooperative system below, refer to Fig. 4.
If array input signal is x (n)=[x1(n),x2(n),...,xk(n)]T, each of which component is different user Fading signal and corresponding noise superposition.Weight w can be selected according to certain criterion so that array output y (n) is similar to the phase Hope signal d (n).The calculating of weights can be realized by training symbol.When using MMSE criterions, cost function is:
J (w)=E | d (n)-wHx(n)|2} (8)
By (8) expansion, and its gradient vector to w is made to be 0, i.e.,
Therefore, the optimal solution of weights is:
Formula (10) is also referred to as optimal wiener solution.Wherein Rxx=E { x (n) xH(n) } the auto-correlation square for being input vector x (n) Battle array, rxd=E { x (n) d*(n) it is } input vector x (n) and desired signal d (n) cross-correlation matrix.
In summary, as shown in figure 5, being comprised the following steps according to the cooperative diversity system beam-forming method of this example:
Step S502:Base station determines the system architecture based on TDMA mechanism, and determines three subframes of a TDMA frame;
Step S504:Base station determines with the SDF agreements of base station end feedback information;
Step S506:Base station determines equivalent channel model, and determine according to SDF agreements three subframes of a TDMA frame The signal for receiving and sending;
Step S508:The combined signal that base station is received to different time-gap carries out the final reception of processing acquisition and sends letter Number;
Step S510:Base station determines four kinds of collaboration diversity conditions according to subscriber channel condition;
Step S512:Base station obtains the cost function of beam forming according to MMSE criterions;
Step S514:Base station obtains the optimal wiener solution of beam forming weight according to cost function;
Step S516:Base station completes the cooperative diversity system beam forming of user terminal;
In mimo systems, smart antenna (adaptive antenna array) technology can be used.And beam forming is smart antenna In key technology, it can adaptively track the sense for expecting user, obtain in a particular direction it is maximum receive, The co-channel interference signal from other directions is eliminated simultaneously.This is by changing weights (the adjustment phase in array on every antenna Position) come what is realized.In analysis above, virtual MIMO can be equivalent to using cooperative diversity system during different trunk protocols System, therefore base station can be separated using beam forming technique to the signal of different user.In cooperative system, different user Channel to base station is separate, and now weighted value needs to adjust the phase and amplitude of signal, the actual effect of weighting simultaneously Fruit is that peak response is produced to desired signal in virtual signal space, and produces null effect to interference signal direction.
Fig. 6 is U1 BER performance change situations when using AF trunk protocols.It can be seen that when channel between user When preferably (such as 15dB), cooperation transmission can bring significant performance improvement, such as BER=10-4When, cooperative gain is about 4dB.It is perfect Channel (channel of noiseless interference) is the limit that this cooperative system can be provided gain between user, in BER=10-4Shi Yuewei 6dB.When channel is poor between user (such as 0dB), the mainly noise of relaying amplification, the so power for the time slot that cooperates is unrestrained Fei Liao, therefore cooperation can bring partial properties to be lost on the contrary.To avoid similar performance from being lost, improved trunk protocol can be used Or power distribution mechanism overcomes the influence that channel strip comes between poor user.
Fig. 7 is U1 BER performance change situations when using SDF trunk protocols.It can be seen that believing between user When road is poor (such as 0dB), cooperation does not bring performance to be lost, because when dual-purpose decoding failure per family, base station can be notified respectively Two users retransmit the information of oneself.Fig. 5 also illustrates, when channel is preferable and fine between user, the cooperation brought using SDF agreements Gain is suitable with AF agreements, and can obtain 4 diversity order gains.
