Description

A kind of distributed beams manufacturing process and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication technology field, in particular it relates to a kind of distributed beams manufacturing process and system.It is special Not, the present invention is applied to sensor network, cognition wireless network.
Background technology
Beam shaping is such a technology, and in the art, multiple antennas jointly form aerial array, to same Signal is transmitted, by the beam shaping weight coefficient for adjusting every antenna so that the receiving end signal intensity of some positions Increase.Beam forming technique can improve signal to noise ratio, increase safety, expands communication range.Specifically, if keeping signal to noise ratio phase Together, then the gross energy that N roots omnidirectional antenna does that beam shaping consumed in the case of carrier synchronization is only that single omni is straight The catabiotic 1/N of signal institute is received and sent, therefore energy can greatly be saved using beam forming technique.In other words, disappearing In the case of consuming identical gross energy, doing beam shaping can make signal to noise ratio improve N times.In many wireless networks(Such as GSM network, CDMA Network, LTE network, sensor network)In, the usual very little of communication terminal and battery-powered is very sensitive to energy expenditure, because This, it is very suitable to do beam shaping.For example, it is single because communication terminal is very little and power limited in sensor network Individual communication terminal can not even send signal to base station farther out sometimes, and needing multiple communication terminals to do beam shaping could handle Signal is sent to these base stations.
Beam shaping is divided into centralized beam shaping and distributed beams shaping.In centralized beam shaping, wave beam is done Multiple antennas of shaping are on an equipment.For example, a mobile phone can configure many antennas to do beam shaping.This method Advantage be that the signal that multiple antennas send has identical carrier wave, it is easy to realize the synchronization of carrier wave, have the disadvantage due to mobile phone The restriction of physical size, multiple antennas is configured on single mobile phone and is difficult to realize.In distributed beams shaping, beam shaping is done Multiple antennas on the different equipment.For example, a mobile phone can configure an antenna, and the scattered mobile phone of a group is combined Beam shaping is done to form virtual aerial array.The advantage of this method is that each equipment only needs to an antenna, holds very much Easily realize.But has a problem in that the carrier wave of the signal sent from every antenna and differ, can when then these signals reach receiving terminals Be able to can cancel out each other, so as to reduce the received signal strength of signal receiving end.Therefore, in distributed beams shaping, need to examine Consider the stationary problem of the local clock of the generation signal carrier of the equipment of sending signal.
The local clock for making each communication equipment of distributed beams shaping is not complete with what these local clocks were given There is deviation between time.Specifically, doing the time of the local clock of the communication equipment of distributed beams shaping can represent For t=β (t0+ Δ), wherein, t0For the time of standard time clock, β is the deviation system of the local clock relative to standard time clock of the equipment Number, Δ is the droop of the local clock relative to standard time clock of the equipment(Referring to E.Baghdady, R.Lincoln, and B.Nelin,“Short-term frequency stability:Characterization,theory,and measurement”,Proc.IEEE,Vol.53,No.7,pp.704-722,Jul.1965).Here it is possible to set arbitrary reference set Standby clock be standard time clock, and when in communication between very in short-term, Δ can be considered as time-independent constant.
Non-patent literature 1(D.R.Brown III and H.Y.Poor,"Time-slotted round-trip carrier synchronization for distributed beamforming",IEEE Trans.on Signal Processing,Vol.56,No.II,pp.5630-5643,November2008)Propose a kind of distributed beams shaping Carrier synchronization method, Fig. 1 schematically illustrates the carrier synchronization method of the distributed beams shaping.Specifically, Fig. 1 shows One network A, the N number of communication equipment SoA in network A1~SoANJoin together to do distributed beams shaping, these communication equipments For network A source node(Source node of network A, SoA), and the communication that beam-formed signal is received in network A sets Standby DoA is network A destination node(Destination node of network A, DoA).In order that SoA1~SoANSend Signal forms coherent superposition when DoA is reached, in SoA1~SoANBefore transmission signal, need to synchronize signal carrier.
In the carrier synchronization method of the distributed beams shaping shown in Fig. 1, first, in the first stage, in time slot 1, DoA is to all of SoA(That is SoA1~SoAN)One reference signal of broadcastWherein, the clock of DoA can be set to standard Clock, its time uses t0Represent, ω0Respectively frequency and phase place of the reference signal under the clock system.SoAi(I=1~ N)Receive the local clock t according to oneself after the reference signalii(t0i) estimate the frequency and phase of the reference signal Position ωi1And stored.
Then, in second stage, in time slot 2, SoA1According to the frequencies omega that it is estimated to the reference signal11And phase PositionForm descending transmission signal and send it to SoA2, SoA2Receive and estimated according to the local clock of oneself after the signal Go out the frequencies omega of the signal22And phase placeAnd store.Then, in time slot 3, SoA2According to frequencies omega22And phase placeForm new descending transmission signal and send it to SoA3, SoA3Receive after the descending transmission signal according to the sheet of oneself Ground clock estimates the frequencies omega of the signal32And phase placeAnd store.So press SoA1→SoA2→…→SoAN's Order goes on, in time slot N, SoAN-1According to frequencies omega(N-1)2And phase placeForm new descending transmission signal simultaneously Send it to SoAN, SoANReceive and the frequencies omega of the signal is estimated according to the local clock of oneself after the signalN2And phase placeAnd store.
Then, in the phase III, in time slot(N+1)In, SoANAccording to its frequency estimated to the reference signal ωN1And phase placeForm ascending transmission signal and send it to SoAN-1, SoAN-1Receive the sheet according to oneself after the signal Ground clock estimates the frequencies omega of the signal(N-1)3And phase placeAnd store.Then, in time slot(N+2)In, SoAN-1According to frequencies omega(N-1)3And phase placeForm new ascending transmission signal and send it to SoAN-2, SoAN-2Receive The frequencies omega of the signal is estimated according to the local clock of oneself to after the signal(N-2)3And phase placeAnd store. So press SoAN→SoAN-1→…→SoA1Order go on, in time slot 2N-1, SoA2According to frequencies omega23And phase placeForm new ascending transmission signal and send it to SoA1, SoA1Receive the local clock after the signal according to oneself to estimate Count out the frequencies omega of the signal13And phase placeAnd store.
After the communication in above three stage, each SoA preserves three class frequencys and phase place, i.e. SoAi(I=1~N) Preserve the frequencies omega of the reference signal for estimatingi1And phase placeThe frequencies omega of the descending transmission signali2And phase placeAnd the frequencies omega of the ascending transmission signali3And phase placeEach SoA can be counted according to this three class frequency and phase place Calculating it carries out using the frequency and phase place of carrier wave during beam shaping.Finally, in time slot 2N, SoAi(I=1~N)Enter traveling wave Beam shaping.
The advantage of said method is that the DoA of reception beam-formed signal only need to be to the SoA for sending beam-formed signal1~ SoANSend a reference signal, so that it may make SoA1~SoANUsed when determining and doing beam shaping on the basis of communicating with one another Carrier wave frequency and phase place.As DoA and SoA1~SoANBetween communication cost be much larger than SoA1~SoANCommunication each other During cost(The situation of such as above-mentioned sensor network), it is very suitable that carrier synchronization is carried out in this way.
In increasingly complex situation, doing when distributed beams shape will not only consider to make beam-formed signal in some positions Putting place's intensity increases, while it is also contemplated that making beam-formed signal strength reduction at other positions.For example, in conventional wireless In communication network and cognition wireless network and the network deposited, conventional wireless communication network constitutes master network(Referred to as network B), it is cognitive Wireless network constitutes time network(Such as above-mentioned network A).In order to effectively utilize frequency spectrum resource, cognition wireless network will be with tradition Cordless communication network share spectrum resources.Generally, the method for share spectrum resources has two kinds, and a kind of method is referred to as opportunistic spectrum and connects Enter(Opportunistic Spectrum Access, OSA), i.e. secondary network finds the frequency spectrum resource that master network wouldn't be used, And communicated using these idle frequency spectrum resources;Another kind of method is referred to as parallel frequency spectrum access(Concurrent Spectrum Access, CSA), i.e. secondary network and master network use common frequency spectrum, but interference of the secondary network to master network is necessarily less than rule Fixed value.In above-mentioned CSA situations, time network had both been required(Such as above-mentioned network A)In do distributed beams shaping communication Equipment(Such as above-mentioned SoA1~SoAN)Can be with the communication equipment of reception beam-formed signal in the network(Such as above-mentioned DoA) Normal communication is realized, and reduces energy expenditure as far as possible, the communication that time network is required again avoids interference master network, example as far as possible Such as, it is desirable to which the beam-formed signal that SoA1~SoAN sends receives the communication equipment of beam-formed signal in network B is reached(Can Referred to as network B destination node(DoB, destination node of network B))Shi Qiangdu is less.However, above-mentioned non-special The carrier synchronization method of the distributed beams shaping in sharp document 1 can not be used in this situation.

Fig. 3 is flow chart, shows the distributed beams manufacturing process described in one embodiment of the present of invention.Fig. 4 a-4f The first stage for showing the distributed beams manufacturing process moves towards figure to the signal in the 6th stage.As shown in figure 3, this Distributed beams manufacturing process described in bright one embodiment comprises the steps:
First, in the first phase, in step slo, network A destination node(DoA)Shape to do distributed beams N number of network A source node S oAi(I=1~N)And to network B destination node(DoB)Broadcast the first reference signal.SoAi(i=1 ~N)It is numbered, its sequence number is determined in advance according to agreement, and causes each side for participating in communication to know the sequence number.Described One reference signal can be expressed as exampleWherein, the local clock of DoA can be set to standard time clock, and its time uses t0Table Show, ω0Frequency and phase place of respectively the first reference signal under the clock.
SoAi(I=1~N)Receive the local clock t according to oneself after the first reference signalii(t0i) estimate respectively Go out the value of the characteristic quantity of the first reference signal.Hereinafter, the characteristic quantity of the various signals for being sent during carrier synchronization can be wrapped Include frequency, phase and amplitude.Here, SoAi(I=1~N)At least estimate the phase place of the first reference signal(Wherein, subscript i Represent SoAi, the expression first stage of subscript 1)And stored.Meanwhile, DoB is received after the first reference signal according to certainly Oneself local clock tBB(t0B) estimate the first reference signal characteristic quantity value, at least including frequencies omegaBAnd phase placeValue.Fig. 4 a schematically illustrate the process, and the process is the first stage of this method, and the stage occurs in time slot 1.
Then, in second stage, in step S20, the frequency of the first reference signal that DoB is estimated according to oneself ωBAnd phase placeForm the second reference signal, and to SoAi(I=1~N)Broadcast the second reference signal, the second reference signal can be with It is expressed asWherein, tBFor the time of the local clock of DoB, a is the amplitude of the second reference signal.
SoAi(I=1~N)Receive the local clock t according to oneself after the second reference signalii(t0i) estimate respectively Go out the value of the characteristic quantity of the second reference signal, including frequencies omegai2, phase placeWith amplitude ai2Value(Here, subscript i is represented SoAi, the expression second stage of subscript 2), and stored, wherein, ai2=a·bBi, bBiIt is the channel pair from DoB to SoAi The amplitude fading factor of signal.Fig. 4 b schematically illustrate the process, and the process is the second stage of this method, and the stage occurs In time slot 2.
After the first and second stages, SoAiObtain one group of estimated valueωi2、And ai2(I=1~N).So Afterwards, in the phase III, in step s 30, SoAiThe feature of the first and second reference signals that can be estimated according to oneself Amount(IncludingAnd ai2)Value form the communications status information of oneself, and broadcast communications status letter to remaining SoA Breath.Then, each SoA can obtain SoA1~SoANCommunications status information.
Usually, the angle for affecting on DoB from beam-formed signal, can be by SoA considering1~SoANCommunications status It is divided into away from DoB farther out and away from nearlyer two big class of DoB, for example, works as ai2When less, then SoAiAway from DoB farther out, a is worked asi2When larger, then SoAiIt is nearer away from DoB;And can press away from DoB nearer SoAThe positive and negative of main value be divided into two groups, herein, phase The main value of position or phase contrast refers to infinite multiple difference 2k π of phase place or phase contrast(K is integer)Angle value in be located at [- π, That angle value in π).In one embodiment, ifWherein, PiFor SoAiMaximum transmission power, then SoAiThe communications status of oneself can be set to the first communications status;IfAndMain value ∈ [0, π), Then SoAiThe communications status of oneself can be set to the second communications status;IfAndMain value ∈ [- π, 0), then SoAiThe communications status of oneself can be set to third communication state.Further, SoAi(I=1~N)Can be by will be from Oneself communications status are encoded to form the communications status information of oneself.In the above-described embodiments, due to there is three kinds of states to need Encode, therefore can be encoded using 2 bits.For example, the first communications status can be encoded to 00, by the second communication shape State is encoded to 11, is 10 by third communication state encoding.It should be noted that the coding of above-mentioned communications status is not unique, as long as SoA1~SoANThese communications status can be distinguished by encoded signal according to prior agreement.
Each SoA filters out final participation wave beam according to the communications status information of all SoA for obtaining according to same algorithm K network A source node S oA of shapingK(m)(M=1~K, K≤N).This process is actually from SoA1~SoANIt is middle to exclude SoA so that the power of remaining SoA transmission signals when beam shaping is done is less than maximum transmission power, and the ripple for being sent Interference very little of the beam shaping signal to DoB, and the beam-formed signal reach DoA when then power it is larger.Due to each SoA institute The communications status information of all SoA for obtaining is identical, and the algorithm of screening is also identical, therefore, SoA1~SoANIn it is every Individual SoA can know the SoA of the final participation beam shaping for filtering out.Fig. 4 c schematically illustrate the process, and the process is The phase III of this method, the stage occurs in time slot 3 to time slot N+2.
Illustrate the algorithm for filtering out final K SoA for participating in beam shaping in an illustrative manner below with reference to Fig. 5.Fig. 5 is Schematic diagram, shows the algorithm for filtering out final K SoA for participating in beam shaping described in one embodiment of the present of invention.Such as Shown in Fig. 5, it is possible, firstly, to from SoA1~SoAN(Here, N=11)It is middle to remove the SoA with the first communications status(For example, in Fig. 5 It is encoded to 00 SoA1And SoA5).These SoA farther out, if participating in beam shaping, are needed with bigger energy apart from DoB Amount transmission signal, can so exceed the maximum transmission power of the SoA, it is therefore desirable to remove.
Then, with the second communications status(Main value ∈ [0, π))Class SoA and with third communication shape State(Main value ∈ [- π, 0))Class SoA in, remove some SoA in more class SoA of number so that two classes The number of SoA is equal.Here, the rule of removal is predetermined, and for example, the predetermined removal rule in Fig. 5 is, by the volume of SoA Order number from big to small is removed, but the invention is not restricted to this.In the example as shown in fig. 5, with the second communications status(Main value ∈ [0, π), it is encoded to 11)SoA ratios there is third communication state([0)-π, compiles main value ∈ Code is 10)SoA it is many one, therefore, remove a largest number of SoA from the SoA with the second communications status(I.e. SoA10)So that two class SoA numbers are equal.It should be noted that knowable to following description, when the number of two class SoA it is equal When, to the interference of DoB it is zero when they do beam shaping.
Finally, remaining SoA is recompiled at predetermined regular, forms final K net for participating in beam shaping Network A source node Ss oAK(m)(M=1~K, K≤N).SoAK(m)It is meant that, numbering is the SoA of m in remaining K SoA.Fig. 5's In example, it is left 8 SoA, numbering is respectively SoA8(1)~SoA8(8)
Fig. 2 is returned, final K SoA for participating in beam shaping is being filtered outK(m)(M=1~K)Afterwards, in fourth stage, In step S40, SoAK(1)The characteristic quantity of the second reference signal estimated according to oneself(Including frequencies omegaK(1)2And phase place)Value form descending transmission signalAnd the descending transmission signal is sent to into SoAK(2).Wherein, ωK(1)4K(1)2,Here, subscript K (1) represents SoAK(1), the expression fourth stage of subscript 4.
Then, by SoAK(2)→SoAK(3)→…→SoAK(K-1)Order, each SoA received under a upper SoA sends Row transmission signal, the characteristic quantity that the descending transmission signal is estimated according to the local clock of oneself(Including frequency and phase place)'s Value, according to this it is descending transmission signal characteristic quantity value formed new descending transmission signal and by the new descending transmission signal send out Give next SoA.That is SoAK(m)Receive SoAK(m-1)The descending transmission signal for sendingAnd according to oneself Local clock tK(m)K(m)(t0K(m)) frequencies omega K (m) 4 and phase place of the descending transmission signal in estimationThen New descending transmission signal is formed with the frequency and phase placeAnd send it to SoAK(m+1)
Last SoAK(K)Receive SoAK(K-1)The descending transmission signal for sending, and this is estimated according to the local clock of oneself The characteristic quantity of descending transmission signal(Including frequencies omegaK(K)4With phase place ωK(K)4)Value.Fig. 4 d schematically illustrate said process, The process is the fourth stage of this method, and the stage occurs in time slot(N+3)To time slot(N+K+1)In.
Then, in the 5th stage, in step s 50, SoAK(K)The feature of the second reference signal estimated according to oneself Amount(Including frequencies omegaK(K)2And phase place)Value formed ascending transmission signalAnd by the up biography Delivery signal is sent to SoAK(K-1), wherein, ωK(K)5K(K)2,Here, subscript K (K) represents SoAK(K), Subscript 5 represented for the 5th stage.
Then, by SoAK(K-1)→SoAK(K-2)→…→SoAK(2)Order, each SoA receives next one SoA transmissions Ascending transmission signal, the characteristic quantity that the ascending transmission signal is estimated according to the local clock of oneself(Including frequency and phase place)'s Value, formed according to the value of the characteristic quantity of the ascending transmission signal new ascending transmission signal and by the new ascending transmission signal send out Give a SoA.That is SoAK(m)Receive SoAK(m+1)The ascending transmission signal of transmissionAnd according to oneself Local clock tK(m)K(m)(t0K(m)) frequencies omega of the ascending transmission signal in estimationK(m)5And phase placeThen New ascending transmission signal is formed with the frequency and phase placeAnd send it to SoAK(m-1)
Then SoAK(1)Receive SoAK(2)The ascending transmission signal of transmission, and estimated on this according to the local clock of oneself The characteristic quantity of row transmission signal(Including frequencies omegaK(1)5With phase place ωK(1)5)Value.Fig. 4 e schematically illustrate said process, should Process is the 5th stage of this method, and the stage occurs in time slot(N+K+2)To time slot(N+2K)In.
As described above, after the communication in the above-mentioned first to the 5th stage, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)The each signal for obtaining The value of characteristic quantity at least include:SoAK(m)The phase place of the first estimated reference signalValue, second with reference to letter Number frequencies omegaK(m)2, phase placeWith amplitude aK(m)2Value, the frequencies omega of descending transmission signalK(m)4And phase place's Value, the frequencies omega of ascending transmission signalK(m)5And phase placeValue.
Then, in step S60, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)In above-mentioned each signals for being obtained according to oneself of each SoA The value of characteristic quantity calculate the characteristic quantity of carrier signal used when doing beam shaping(Including frequencies omegaK(m), phase placeWith Amplitude aK(m))Value, and form carrier wave to carry out beam shaping according to the value of the characteristic quantity of the carrier signal.Fig. 4 f schematically show Said process is gone out, the process is the 6th stage of this method.
In one embodiment, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)Do the frequencies omega of carrier signal used during beam shapingK(m), phase placeWith amplitude aK(m)Can be calculated by following formula:
ωK(m)=(ωK(m)4K(m)5)-ωK(m)2
aK(m)=1/aK(m)2
It is described below, works as SoAK(m)(M=1~K)Beam-formed signal is sent using the carrier wave determined by above-mentioned formula When, beam-formed signal to the interference very little of DoB, while, beam-formed signal power when DoA is reached is larger.In addition each The transmit power of SoA is both less than its maximum transmission power.
As previously described, in the first phase, the first reference signal of DoA broadcast isFirst reference signal is arrived During up to DoB, the phase-delay quantity that the channel of DoA to DoB causes is set to θAB, then, the first reference signal that DoB is received is changed intoLocal clock ts of the DoB according to oneselfBB(t0B) estimate the first reference signal frequency be ωB, phase Position isIn following discussion, it is assumed that the frequency that estimates, phase place do not have error, then,
Therefore have:
In the same manner, in the first stage, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)Receive the local clock t according to oneself after the first reference signalK(m)K(m)(t0K(m)) phase place of the first reference signal that estimatesFor:
Wherein, θAK(m)SoA is reached for the first reference signalK(m)When by DoA to SoAK(m)The Phase delay that causes of channel Amount.
Can be calculated based on same principle, in second stage, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)Receive the second reference that DoB sends The frequencies omega of the second reference signal estimated according to the local clock of oneself after signalK(m)2And phase placeRespectively:
Wherein, θBK(m)SoA is reached for the second reference signalK(m)When by DoB to SoAK(m)The Phase delay that causes of channel Amount.Meanwhile, SoAK(m)(M=1~K)The amplitude of the second reference signal for estimating is aK(m)2, wherein, aK(m)2=a·bBK(m), a For the amplitude of the second reference signal of DoB transmittings, bBK(m)It is from DoB to SoAK(m)The amplitude fading factor of the channel to signal.It is then from DoB to SoAK(m)Factor of influence of the channel to signal.
In fourth stage, SoAK(m)Receive SoAK(m-1)The descending transmission signal for sendingAnd according to The local clock t of oneselfK(m)K(m)(t0K(m)) estimate the descending frequencies omega for transmitting signalK(m)4 and phase placeSuch as Under:
Wherein, θK(n-1)K(n)It is descending transmission signal from SoAK(n-1)Reach SoAK(n)When by SoAK(n-1)To SoAK(n)Letter The phase-delay quantity that road causes.
In 5th stage, SoAK(m)Receive SoAK(m+1)The ascending transmission signal of transmissionAnd according to The local clock t of oneselfK(m)K(m)(t0K(m)) estimate the frequencies omega of the ascending transmission signalK(m)5And phase placeSuch as Under:
Wherein, θK(n-1)K(n)To transmit signal from SoAK(n-1)Reach SoAK(n)When by SoAK(n-1)To SoAK(n)Channel draw The phase-delay quantity for rising, here it is possible to assume SoAK(n-1)And SoAK(n)Between channel be symmetric channel, so from SoAK(n-1) To SoAK(n)The phase-delay quantity θ that causes of channelK(n-1)K(n)Equal to from SoAK(n)To SoAK(n-1)The phase place that causes of channel prolong θ is measured lateK(n)K(n-1)
If SoAK(m)(M=1~K)When doing beam shaping, the frequencies omega of carrier signalK(m), phase placeWith amplitude aK(m) According to aboveωK(m)2,a K(m)2, ωK(m)4,ωK(m)5,Value be defined below:
ωK(m)=(ωK(m)4K(m)5)-ωK(m)2
aK(m)=1/aK(m)2
So, the beam-formed signal that DoB is received is:
Wherein,For as previously described from SoAK(m)To the factor of influence of the channel to signal of DoB, aK(m) bBK(m)=1/a, a are the amplitude of the second reference signal that DoB sends, and Ψ is:
In SBAbove-mentioned expression formula in, due to two summation number in item number it is equal(Because having second and the third communication The number of two classes DoA of state is equal), therefore SBValue be zero, so as to interference of the beam-formed signal to DoB is zero.In addition, The transmit power of each SoA is both less than its maximum transmission power.
Meanwhile, the beam-formed signal that DoA is received is then:
Wherein,For as previously described from SoAK(m)To the factor of influence of the channel to signal of DoA.Due to working asMain value ∈ [- π, when 0),Main value+π ∈ [0, π), therefore, above-mentioned beam-formed signal SA In, every phase contrast is less than π, thus items are presented the situation of mutually long superposition, so as to ensure the work(of the signal that DoA is received Rate is larger.
In superincumbent discussion, it is assumed that the frequency and phase place for estimating does not have error, therefore, ωK(m)2、ωK(m)4、ωK(m)5 Value it is identical, but the frequency that estimates in practice and phase place have error.According to derivation result, when the frequency and phase that estimate When there is error position, using formula ωK(m)=(ωK(m)4K(m)5)-ωK(m)2Best result can be obtained.In addition, in upper review In stating, it is assumed that the channel and DoB and DoA between the channel between SoA and DoA, the channel between SoA and DoB, SoA Between channel in the short period(Such as 1 second)All it is inside linear constant, and is all symmetrical, that is to say, that, it is assumed that channel Impulse response in multiple time slots(Millisecond magnitude)It is interior to keep constant, and the phase place change that causes of channel and amplitude of variation and letter Number direction of propagation is unrelated.This assumes it is to meet in most practical situations.

Fig. 7 is simulation result figure, when showing using beam-forming method of the present invention, the average wave beam of network A into Shape power gain is over time.Fig. 8 is simulation result figure, when showing using beam-forming method of the present invention, SoA beam-formed signals to the average interference power of DoB over time.
Emulation software used is Matlab, and simulation times are 100000 times, and simulation parameter is:All reference signals continue Time is 1ms, and the amplitude of all reference signals is identical and for 1, all channel magnitude decay factors obey average be 1 it is auspicious Profit distribution, channel phase postpone obey [- π, π) on be uniformly distributed, the power spectral density and channel magnitude of the noise of channel Duplicate ratio be N0/b2=2.25×10-12Hz-1, the maximum transmit power of all SoA is P=4W, and the sum of SoA is respectively N= 8th, 16 and 32.When SoA and DoB is estimated the characteristic quantity of reference signal, using maximal possibility estimation, non-patent literature 2 (D.C.Rife and R.R.Boorstyn,“Single-tone parameter estimation from discrete- time observations,”IEEE Trans.on Information Theory,Vol.IT-20,No.5,pp.591- 598,Sept.,1974)Prove, during using maximal possibility estimation, estimation difference be converge on zero-mean meet Gauss distribution Stochastic variable, its variance is equal to CRB(Cramer-Rao Bounds, Cramér-Rao lower bound), so, in simulations, adopt variance for The zero-mean gaussian distribution variables of CRB are used as each estimation difference estimated.
It can be seen from figure 7 that with the increase of beam shaping time, the distributed beams shaping power gain of A networks Reduce, when the time is more than 1s, power gain drastically diminishes, this is because, final total phase error is taken advantage of by frequency error With the beam shaping time along with phase error composition, thus the increase over time of the variance of final total phase error and increase Greatly, when the time certain limit is exceeded, final total phase error is increased dramatically, and beam shaping power gain drastically declines.
When SoA is selected, it is possible that all of SoA is all in the first communications status, or all in first or the Two communications status, or all in first or third communication state, so, in the present inventive method, all of SoA is required for row Remove, so as to the SoA numbers for participating in beam shaping are 0, it is impossible to carry out beam shaping, such case can be described as beam shaping interruption. Following result is obtained according to emulation:Beam shaping outage probability is respectively 2.89% and 0.04% during N=8 and N=16;As N=32, Beam shaping outage probability is minimum, is sufficiently close to 0.This shows, when SoA is more, the probability for beam shaping interruption occur is less.It is imitative Very also obtain following result:When there is not beam shaping interruption, during for N=8, N=16 and N=32, final choice goes out to participate in ripple The meansigma methodss of the number of the SoA of beam shaping(That is mean number)Respectively 4.67,10.26 and 22.21.So N=8,16 and 32 When, the perfect Gain of mean number SoA respectively may be about 6.7dB, 10.1dB and 13.5dB.
As shown in fig. 7, when the beam shaping time is less than 100ms, for N=8,16,32, beam shaping power gain difference About 4.1dB, 6.5dB and 9.4dB.The power gain is respectively 2.5dB with the difference of the perfect Gain of mean number SoA, 3.6dB and 4.1dB.This shows that with the increase of SoA total numbers beam shaping power gain gradually increases with the difference of the perfect Gain Greatly, but beam shaping power gain is still higher.
As can be seen from Figure 8, if it is desired that the jamming power of DoB is below -20dB, then, when N=8,16 and 32, The beam shaping time is respectively no more than 220ms, 330ms and 500ms.As can see from Figure 7, during this period of time, A networks Beam shaping power gain it is still higher.Assume the time between SoA mutually needed for broadcast communication status information much smaller than ginseng The reception time of signal is examined, then when N=8,16 and 32, mean number SoA does average lock in time required before beam shaping point Yue Wei not 9ms, 20ms and 44ms.So, compared with the lock in time before beam shaping, higher gain can be obtained in beam shaping Time it is much longer, and can reduce the jamming power to DoB within the beam shaping time.So, using the present invention Described method carries out beam shaping, and preferable performance can be kept within long period of time.Certainly, increasing over time Greatly, after the hydraulic performance decline of beam shaping, need re-use the method for the present invention obtain beam shaping parameter with continue into Traveling wave beam shaping.
