Description

Frame synchronization in the wireless communication system and symbol timing synchronization method and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the mobile communication technology field, relate in particular to frame synchronization and symbol timing synchronization method and device in a kind of wireless communication system.
Background technology
In the LTE of 3GPP communication system technical standard, terminal equipment needs to detect after start from the master sync signal in the downlink frame of base station (PSS), obtains sector mark (ID), and finishes frame synchronization.During data that terminal equipment comprises in the demodulation downlink frame, also need with downlink frame in each OFDM symbol carry out synchronously.
Fig. 1 is the LTE system frame structure that is used for time division duplex of regulation among the 3GPP TS 36.211.Each frame length is 10ms, comprises the field of two 5ms.The subframe that it is 1ms that each frame is divided into 10 length.Each subframe comprises 14 OFDM symbols.Wherein comprise master sync signal in the 3rd of the 2nd, the 7th subframe the OFDM symbol, signal format such as 3GPP TS 36.211 definition.The master sync signal that the LTE system uses is the ZC sequence of three kinds of different roots, namely has the master sync signal of three types, and submeter represents 0~2 sector ID.Because LTE system master sync signal negligible amounts, and the ZC sequence all has ideal correlation in time domain and frequency domain, therefore can be used for the detection of frame and OFDM symbol with synchronously.
Owing to detect when synchronous at frequency domain, need to be converted into frequency domain and carry out receiving signal, have higher computation complexity, therefore usually use the time domain correlation detection that master sync signal is detected.
When using the time domain correlation detection to detect master sync signal, need the master sync signal sequence of the local storage of calculating relevant with the slip of the sampled signal of reception, and determine the position of master sync signal by detecting correlation peak.In the practical application, if directly calculate the slip correlation peak with the sampled signal that receives, then for each sampled signal, all need computational length to be at most 2048 correlation, computation complexity is very high.
In order to reduce computation complexity, existing master sync signal detector at first uses low pass filter to carry out to received signal low-pass filtering usually, then carries out down-sampled processing.But down-sampled processing has been sacrificed synchronization accuracy when reducing system complexity.In order to address this problem, certain methods considers to use two stage detection, namely at first receives signal with low sampling rate and carries out slightly synchronous the detection, and then receive signal and carry out synchronously detection of essence with high sampling rate.
In the prior art, it is to carry out for all sampled signals that receive that above-mentioned low pass filtered involves down-sampled processing, and according to frame structure shown in Figure 1 as can be known, master sync signal only is arranged in the specific OFDM symbol of a subframe of each 5ms field.Go forward side by side line synchronizing signal when following the tracks of detecting master sync signal, if still all carry out above-mentioned processing for all sampled signals, then can have a large amount of unnecessary computations, especially for the calculating of the data-signal away from from the master sync signal position.

For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with embodiment and accompanying drawing, the preferred embodiment among the present invention is elaborated.
Embodiment one
In the present embodiment one, the situation that receives signal take fixed sample rate is as example, and is provided with two stage synchronous detection, namely slightly detects synchronously and smartly detects synchronously.
Fig. 2 is the exemplary process diagram of the frame synchronization in the wireless communication system and symbol timing synchronization method in the embodiment of the invention one.As shown in Figure 2, the method comprises the steps:
Step 201 arranges the state machine that comprises initial condition, synchronizing signal acknowledgement state and synchronizing signal tracking mode.
Fig. 3 is the state transition diagram of state machine in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 3, when the initial condition of state machine, begin to detect master sync signal; After detecting master sync signal, state machine enters the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; The master sync signal that affirmation detects when the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state, as be confirmed whether that continuous N detects master sync signal in desired location 1 time, in this way, then finish master sync signal and confirm; Otherwise, keep the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; Confirming to enter the synchronizing signal tracking mode behind the master sync signal, master sync signal is being followed the tracks of frame synchronizing signal with stable output; If when the synchronizing signal tracking mode, continuous N 2 is lost the synchronizing signal of following the tracks of, then can enter initial condition; Otherwise, keep the synchronizing signal tracking mode.Some also can directly enter synchronizing signal acknowledgement state (as shown in phantom in FIG.) by the synchronizing signal tracking mode in using.Wherein, M1 is the first setting threshold, and M2 is the second setting threshold.
Step 202 according to the current state of state machine, is determined position and the length of master sync signal detection window.
In this step, when the position of described master sync signal detection window is set, should make the desired location of master sync signal to be detected be positioned at the afterbody of described master sync signal detection window as far as possible, as be positioned at the setting regions at master sync signal detection window rear portion, postpone to reduce to detect.
When after the mobile communication terminal device start or indication synchronizing function module carry out synchronous after, state machine enters initial condition.
In this step, when the current state of state machine was initial condition, state machine can use long master sync signal detection window, and gapless between the master sync signal detection window is undetected to avoid occurring master sync signal.For LTE frame structure shown in Figure 1; the length that the master sync signal detection window can be set is held the data of a master sync signal transmission cycle (being 5ms among Fig. 1) at least; the length that for example, the master sync signal detection window can be set is the length+5ms at the first protection interval.Wherein, the length at the first protection interval can be set to the length of LTE systemic circulation prefix, can certainly be other length, such as the length of an OFDM symbol.At this moment, the master sync signal detection window can be positioned at original position.
When the current state of state machine was the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state, state machine can use long master sync signal detection window, gapless between the master sync signal detection window.For LTE frame structure shown in Figure 1, the plan of establishment in the time of equally can be by initial condition namely arranges the length of master sync signal detection window: be the first protection interval length+one master sync signal transmission cycle (as, 5ms).The original position that the master sync signal detection window is set simultaneously is: the position of the length at current main sync bit+first protection interval.Wherein, the length at the first protection interval can be set to the length of LTE systemic circulation prefix, can certainly be other length, such as the length of an OFDM symbol.
When the current state of state machine was the synchronizing signal tracking mode, state machine uses short master sync signal detection window, and was gapped between the master sync signal detection window.For LTE frame structure shown in Figure 1, the length that the master sync signal detection window can be set is: the length of the length at the second protection interval+OFDM symbol.The original position that the master sync signal detection window is set simultaneously is:
Figure BDA0000158127650000181
Figure BDA0000158127650000182
Wherein, the length at the second protection interval can be set to 2 times of LTE systemic circulation prefix length.
Fig. 4 shows in the embodiment of the invention according to the current state of state machine, determines the position of master sync signal detection window and a schematic diagram of length.
As shown in Figure 4, when the initial condition (IS) of state machine, be provided with the master sync signal detection window of a 5ms length, and successfully detect a master sync signal, be the position shown in the dark-shaded solid rectangular line frame, state machine enters synchronizing signal acknowledgement state (CS).
Synchronizing signal acknowledgement state at state machine, the master sync signal detection window of a 5ms length can be set equally, its original position is set to the position of the length at current main sync bit+first protection interval, successfully detect a master sync signal (CS in the accompanying drawing (S) represents successfully to detect corresponding master sync signal) this moment, owing to also do not reach the number of times that continuous success detects, so state machine remains on the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; Under this state, the original position of the master sync signal detection window of continuation 5ms length is set to the position of the length at current main sync bit+first protection interval, but this time successfully do not detect master sync signal (CS in the accompanying drawing (F) expression does not successfully detect corresponding master sync signal) by desired location (being the position of current main sync bit+5ms), but detect an interference signal, it is the position shown in the light shaded rectangle dotted line frame, owing to successfully do not detect master sync signal by desired location, be that positional fault appears in master sync signal, then synchronous state machine is thought and is confirmed unsuccessfully, reaffirm the master sync signal that newly detects, remain on the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; And the original position of master sync signal detection window is set to the position of interference signal based on current detection, because it is interference signal, therefore not successfully detect master sync signal in desired location corresponding to this interference signal (i.e. the position of current main sync bit+5ms corresponding to this interference signal), but detecting again an interference signal, state machine remains on the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; The original position of master sync signal detection window is set based on the position of current interference signal again, because it is interference signal, therefore successfully do not detect master sync signal in desired location corresponding to this interference signal, but arriving master sync signal in the another one position probing, state machine remains on the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; Based on current detection to the position of master sync signal the original position of master sync signal detection window is set, this time detect master sync signal in desired location; Based on the position of the master sync signal of current detection the original position of master sync signal detection window is set, successfully detects again master sync signal in desired location.So far successfully detect master sync signal continuous three times, i.e. synchronous state machine affirmation master sync signal occurs with 5 milliseconds fixed intervals, and state machine enters synchronizing signal tracking mode (TS).
In the said process, for the master sync signal detection window that has cross section, in the rear master sync signal detection window of determining with the master sync signal detection window of determining before in cross section correlation the mould value directly the appropriate section from definite before master sync signal detection window obtain, to avoid double counting.
Synchronizing signal tracking mode at state machine, the master sync signal detection window of the length of OFDM symbol lengths+2 times LTE systemic circulation prefix is set, its original position is set to the position of the length of current main sync bit+5ms-LTE systemic circulation prefix, and successfully detect master sync signal, the current length that keeps afterwards the master sync signal detection window, the original position of master sync signal detection window is set based on the master sync signal that detects, be the position that original position is set to the length of current main sync bit+5ms-LTE systemic circulation prefix, master sync signal is followed the tracks of.
Step 203 receives current sampled signal, and records the position of described current sampled signal.
Step 204 judges whether described current sampled signal is used for calculating the correlation in the described master sync signal detection window, and if so, then execution in step 205; Otherwise, can current sampled signal not carried out subsequent treatment, and return and carry out this step 203.
In this step, if the correlation of calculating location n, required sampled signal can be for from position n to n+N PssTherefore-1 sampled signal when judging whether current sampled signal is used for correlation in the calculating master sync signal detection window, can be judged the correlation of corresponding current location n, and whether the position of the sampled signal that receives is between n to n+N PssBetween-1, the calculating of concrete correlation is referring to the formula in the step 208 (3).
Wherein, N Pss=S L* T SymBe sampled point number, S LBe sample rate, T SymBe the defined OFDM symbol lengths of 3GPP LTE standard.
Step 205 is carried out low-pass filtering to described current sampled signal, obtains signal after the filtering; Distinguish afterwards execution in step 206 and step 207.
In this step, the sampled signal of establishing reception is r (n), and low-pass filter coefficients is f Lp(n), 0≤n≤N Fir, then can process the sampled signal that receives by following formula (1), obtain the signal r after the low-pass filtering Lp(n).
r lp ( n ) = r ( n ) ⊗ f lp ( n ) - - - ( 1 )
N FirBe the length of FIR low-pass filter coefficients,
Figure BDA0000158127650000202
The expression convolution algorithm.
For the LTE system, the design of low-pass filter coefficients should so that the passband of filter with end band according to 3GPP LTE wireless mobile communications Specification Design.For example, pass band width is the bandwidth of master sync signal, is 472.5kHz, is the total bandwidth frequency of the unloaded ripple of master sync signal and reservation with frequency only, is 547.5kHz.
Step 206 is carried out buffer memory to described filtered signal, and buffered signal is used in step 211.
In this step, can be with r Lp(n) put into the signal buffer.
Step 207 is carried out down-sampledly to signal after the described filtering, obtain down-sampled signal.
In this step, can be to r Lp(n) carry out down-sampledly, shown in (2), sample rate is down to S L
r lp ds ( n ) = r lp ( nR ds ) - - - ( 2 )
In the formula (2), R DsBe reduce sampling frequency, by the presently used sample rate S of system HDetermine, i.e. R Ds=S H/ S LSample rate S LLeast sampling rate for being determined by the master sync signal bandwidth is generally 960kHz.S HBe the sample rate of LTE specification recommends, its value is S LIntegral multiple, so R DsBe generally positive integer.
Step 208 is calculated the correlation of described down-sampled signal and local master sync signal, and the mould value of described correlation is put into described master sync signal detection window.
Wherein, the magnitude calculation method of correlation can be suc as formula shown in (3):
c coarse ( n ) = | Σ i = 0 N pss - 1 r lp ds ( n + i ) * PSS L ( i ) | - - - ( 3 )
In the formula (3), PSS L(i) be the sampling of master sync signal on time domain, sample rate is S L, amount to N Pss=S L* T SymIndividual sampled point, T SymBe the defined OFDM symbol lengths of 3GPP LTE standard.
Step 209 judges whether described master sync signal detection window is full, if so, and execution in step then, 210; Otherwise, wait for that the mould value of new correlation is put into described master sync signal detection window.
Step 210 is exported the position of the corresponding down-sampled signal of maximum norm value in the described master sync signal detection window as current main sync bit (being thick sync position detection).
Step 211 is calculated R before and afterwards with described current main sync bit Ds-1 required buffered signal of correlation reaches for the buffered signal of calculating the corresponding correlation of current main sync bit and extracts.Wherein, R DsBe reduce sampling frequency.
The position of calculating the required buffered signal of correlation in this step can obtain according to formula (4).
Step 212 is calculated the correlation of each buffered signal and local master sync signal, obtains the mould value of the correlation of corresponding each buffered signal.
Be calculated according to the following formula and amount to 2R DsThe mould value of-1 correlation:

N wherein CoarseBe the current main sync bit that calculates in the step 210, i.e. thick sync bit.In the formula (4)
PSS L us ( n ) = PSS L ( n / R ds ) mod ( n , R ds ) = 0 0 mod ( n , R ds ) ≠ 0 - - - ( 5 )
Step 213 is chosen the maximum norm value from the mould value of the correlation of corresponding each buffered signal, the position of the sampled signal that described maximum norm value is corresponding is as current main sync bit (being smart sync bit).
Step 214, state machine is determined the current state of state machine, and is returned execution in step 202 according to described current main sync bit (being smart sync bit) and sync bit detection case before.
According to the analysis in the step 202 as can be known, in this step, if state machine is initial condition, then enter the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; If state machine is the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state, judge whether that then continuous N 1 time detects near synchronizing signal (namely detecting master sync signal desired location) by expection, in this way, then enters the synchronizing signal tracking mode; Otherwise, keep the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state; If state machine is the synchronizing signal tracking mode, then judge whether to trace near synchronizing signal (namely desired location, detecting master sync signal) by expection, in this way, then keep the synchronizing signal tracking mode, and preamble is worked as in output; Otherwise, judge whether that continuous N does not trace into synchronizing signal by expection 2 times, in this way, then state machine is thought synchronization loss, can enter initial condition or synchronizing signal acknowledgement state, otherwise, preamble worked as according to the synchronizing signal that traces into by the expection output of last time.
In this step, when continuous N does not trace into synchronizing signal by expection 2 times, then state machine can select to enter initial condition or synchronizing signal tracking mode according to the detection quality of the last master sync signal.That is, judge whether the detection quality of the master sync signal that current main sync bit is corresponding satisfies the setting requirement, in this way, then enter the synchronizing signal tracking mode; Otherwise, enter initial condition.For example, can judge the size of the mould value of the correlation that the last master sync signal detects, if it then enters the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state, otherwise enter initial condition greater than setting thresholding TH.
Perhaps, this moment, state machine also can enter synchronizing signal acknowledgement state or initial condition according to fixed solution.As, can be fixedly installed for: when continuous N does not trace into synchronizing signal by expection 2 times, change all the time initial condition over to, or change all the time the synchronizing signal acknowledgement state over to.
When terminal equipment shut down, above-mentioned flow process finished.When terminal equipment indication restarts then to re-execute above-mentioned flow process when synchronous.
