For adapting to the needs of future development, mobile communication system requires to support the high-speed packet data transmission even going up gigabit up to per second hundreds of million, when radio spectrum resources day is becoming tight, adopt multiple antennas transmission and multiple antennas to receive the Radio Transmission Technology of (MIMO), be one of mainstream technology of moving communicating field research in the past over more than ten years always.Be subject to antenna number quantitative limitation (for the LTE-A of 3GPP, it supports at most 8 transmit antennas in base station side), the spectrum efficiency of traditional MIMO technology is still lower, therefore using more antenna configuration to excavate Spatial Dimension resource further in base station side, is one of development trend of future mobile communication system.When base station is configured extensive antenna (tens even up to a hundred), be limited to the restriction of bulk, and in order to utilize the correlation between antenna, the antenna distance (being no more than 1 carrier wavelength) that general employing is less.
It is synchronously the matter of utmost importance that mobile communication system design need be considered.In general mobile communication system, user's (travelling carriage) need after the power-up first to detect synchronizing channel to complete community (or sector) search, community select and and base station between set up Time and Frequency Synchronization.Due to the feature that the uncertainty of each customer location and the position of a large number of users are evenly distributed in community, therefore the synchronizing signal in community must send with omnidirectional's form when launching, namely the transmitting power of synchronizing signal should be even as far as possible in all directions, ensures that the user of all directions in community can obtain evenly synchronous signal receiver signal to noise ratio reliably with this.Except synchronizing signal, also have some signals also having omnidirectional's characteristic from during Base Transmitter, as broadcast singal, therefore, coverage of the present invention not only comprises synchronizing signal itself, also comprises all signals should with omnidirectional's characteristic.
Single antenna is easier to obtain omnidirectional's characteristic, and multiple antennas is due to mutual interference, more difficult acquisition omnidirectional characteristic.The synchronizing signal radiation pattern being applied to multiple antennas at present mainly contains time-switching transmit diversity (TSTD), precoding vectors switches (PVS) and cyclic delay diversity (CDD).TSTD only uses 1 transmit antennas to form omnidirectional signal at synchronization, but when antenna amount is larger, it is too low to the utilance of transmitting power, cannot ensure that user obtains reliable received signal to noise ratio.PVS be not used in wave beam spatially complimentary to one another in the same time to realize covering to area of space, then needing to merge repeatedly Received signal strength, lock in time can be caused when antenna amount is larger long to obtain reliable received signal to noise ratio.CDD sends the synchronizing signal of cyclic shift each other on different antennas to ensure omnidirectional's characteristic, but can bring pseudo-multipath effect at receiving terminal, and corresponding synchronized algorithm is comparatively complicated.Therefore, existing synchronizing signal radiation pattern cannot be applicable to the more large-scale antenna array of number of transmit antennas.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the invention will be further described:
Use the synchronizing signal launching technique of large-scale antenna array as shown in Figure 1.Synchronizing signal transmitting flow process is as follows:
First base station generates original synchronizing signal.The sequence that this signal uses and baseband modulation mode (as single carrier or multi-carrier modulation) thereof can optionally be selected, and the present invention does not make any constraint to it.
Generated synchronizing signal is admitted to omnidirectional signal maker 101 together with weight vectors.The Main Function of omnidirectional signal maker 101 makes the synchronizing signal finally sent from multi-antenna array 104 have omnidirectional's characteristic.Omnidirectional signal maker 101 mainly comprises M multiplier 101-1 to 101-M.On multiplier 101-1 to 101-M, the element multiplication that synchronizing signal is corresponding with weight vectors respectively, 1 therefore original tunnel synchronizing signal is extended to M road synchronizing signal and exports.The concrete generation method of weight vectors will provide later.
The signal exported from omnidirectional signal maker 101 is admitted to sending module 102.The Main Function of sending module 102 discrete baseband signal is become analog radio-frequency signal, to send into antenna transmission.Sending module 102 mainly comprises M sendaisle 102-1 to 102-M.The control module of D/A modular converter, carrier modulation block, power amplifier module and other necessity is mainly comprised in each sendaisle.
Multiple beam forming network 103 is optional module.
When system uses array antenna, multiple beam forming network 103 does not exist, multi-antenna array 104 is directly connected with sending module 102, and now M and N is equal, and N=M input (antenna) port that the M road signal namely exported from sending module 102 is admitted to multi-antenna array 104 is launched.
And when system uses multi-beam antenna, multiple beam forming network 103 physical presence, it comprises M input (wave beam) port, corresponding to M the wave beam that multi-beam antenna can be formed, comprise N number of output port, corresponding to the N number of antenna in multi-antenna array 104, M and N can equal also can be unequal.M input (wave beam) port of multiple beam forming network 103 is admitted to from the M road signal of sending module 102 output, then export from N number of output port of multiple beam forming network 103, N number of input (antenna) port then sending into multi-antenna array 104 is launched.
Multi-antenna array 104 is configured to two-dimensional rectangle battle array, and as shown in Figure 2, its line number is N 1(N 1one dimensional linear array is deteriorated to when=1), columns is N 2, meet N=N 1× N 2.Line-spacing is equal to each other as Δ 1, row are apart from being equal to each other as Δ 2, Δ 1with Δ 2generally be no more than 1 carrier wavelength.Every root antenna is all ± 45 degree of cross polarised antennas.The directional diagram of all antennas is all identical.
When using multi-beam antenna, the wave beam that multi-beam antenna is formed in space has M, and similar with the shape of rectangle battle array, it can be divided into the M of vertical angular orientation 1the M in individual wave beam and level angle direction 2individual wave beam, meets M=M 1× M 2.When using array antenna, meet N=M, and N 1=M 1, N 2=M 2.
As can be seen from explanation above, weight vectors in omnidirectional signal maker 101 always M dimension, when using multi-beam antenna, it represents that synchronizing signal is to the weight vectors of M beam port, and when using array antenna, it represents the weight vectors of synchronizing signal to N=M antenna port.The weight coefficient w that its i-th element and multiplier 101-i use ia kind of generating mode be
w i = [ vec ( w M 1 w M 2 H ) ] i - - - ( 1 )
Wherein with being respectively length is M 1with M 2column vector, () hrepresent and get conjugate transpose, vec () expression carries out vectoring operations to matrix, namely this M 1× M 2all row of dimension matrix are sequentially stacked into 1 row becomes M 1m 2× 1 that is M × 1 tie up column vector, [] irepresent the i-th row element getting column vector.Here or being designed to length is M 1or M 2(one dimension) ZC sequence.Length is the generation expression formula of the ZC sequence of K
Wherein γ may be selected to be and is less than K and any positive integer relatively prime with K.It should be noted that, the ZC sequence that through type (2) defines does not comprise all ZC sequences, the all sequences that the basis of formula (2) derives, if itself be permanent mode sequence, and the result of its discrete Fourier transform (DFT) (DFT) is still permanent mode sequence, all should be regarded as the one of ZC sequence.Similar, be not difficult to find what through type (1) obtained for two-dimentional ZC sequence, itself be permanent mould, and the result of its two-dimentional DFT is also permanent mode sequence, all two-dimensional sequences that through type (1) derives also all should be regarded as the one of two-dimentional ZC sequence.
For avoiding the equivalent channel between the user of low speed movement and base station to be in deep fade for a long time, when front and back several times launch synchronizing signal, low relevant weight vectors each other can be adopted, to realize transmit diversity.Two groups of weight vectors here with between coefficient correlation be defined as
ρ = 1 M 1 M 2 · tr ( w M 1 ( 1 ) w M 2 ( 1 ) H ( w M 1 ( 2 ) w M 2 ( 2 ) H ) H )
(3)
= 1 M · w M 1 ( 2 ) H w M 1 ( 1 ) · w M 2 ( 1 ) H w M 2 ( 2 )
Wherein matrix trace is got in tr () expression.Can find, with between low correlation can pass through with or with between low correlation obtain, and with or with between low correlation can be obtained by the character of ZC sequence.For the ZC sequence that two length are K with when meet following condition for the moment, with can low correlation be obtained:
A) with γ different;
B) it is right to be equivalent to carry out n cyclic shift, meet n non-zero under mould K.
It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the premise without departing from the principles of the invention, can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.The all available prior art of each part not clear and definite in the present embodiment is realized.
