Set " divisional application.
Technical field
The present invention relates to the transfer control methods in a kind of wireless communication system, more particularly to are suitable for MIMO (Multi
Input Multi Output, multiple-input and multiple-output) transmission repeating transmission control technology.
Background technology
About mobile communication system such as portable phones, currently based on CDMA (Code Division Multiple
Access, CDMA access) third generation mode of mode has begun to service, and is promoting with OFDMA
It is real based on (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access, orthogonal frequency-time multiple access) mode
The research of the next generation mobile communication system now more rapidly communicated (with reference to the non-patent literature 1 described below).
Therefore, as the technology for keeping transmission rate rapid, MIMO is suggested as strong technology.Figure 19 indicates MIMO
The overview of Transmission system.Mimo transmission system shown in the Figure 19 is configured to:With multiple transmission antennas (antenna sets) Tx#
1, Tx#2 ..., the sending device 100 of Tx#n (n be 2 or more integer);With with multiple reception antennas (antenna sets) Rx#1,
Rx#2 ..., the reception device 200 of Rx#n, which is from each transmission antenna Tx#i (i=1~n) transmitted in parallel
Different data flow, to proportionally increase the spatial multiplexing transmission technology of transmission capacity with transmission antenna quantity n.Different
Transmission antenna Tx#i is configured to non-correlation each other, and the data flow sent from each transmission antenna Tx#i is respectively by independent
Decline transmission path, and being received antenna Rx#i with the state mixed in space with other data flows receives.
As the implementation example of this mimo transmission system, as shown in figure 20, such as has and each antenna is independently flowed
The method of processing.For example, PARC (the Per Antenna Rate without precoding (Precoding) can be enumerated
Control, the control of each Antenna Rate) (with reference to the non-patent literature 2 described below) and carry out the PSRC (Per of precoding
Stream Rate Control, each flow rate control) (with reference to the non-patent literature 3 described below) etc..
In particular, in system shown in the Figure 20, such as sending device 100 is configured to includes flow separation portion 101, each
CRC appendix 102, coding unit 103 and the HARQ processing units 104, sending part 105 and repeating transmission control unit 106 for sending stream, receive
Device 200 is for example configured to include Signal separator/combining unit 201, the HARQ processing units 202 of each receiving stream and CRC operation portion
203, ACK/NACK determination units 204 and stream combining unit 205.In addition, ATR indicates that the reception antenna of sending device 100, ATT indicate
The transmission antenna of reception device 200 for convenience, shows to send ACK/NACK from transmission antenna ATT in this example
(Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement) signal (confirms answer signal), and by reception antenna ATR
The case where reception.
Also, sending device (hereinafter also referred to sending side) 100 is for example acted according to flow chart shown in Figure 21, receives dress
(hereinafter also referred to receiving side) 200 is set for example to act according to flow chart shown in Figure 22.
That is, in sending device 100, transmission data is separated into the transmission stream of each antenna sets Tx#i by flow separation portion 101
(step A1), by CRC appendix 102 to the CRC (Cyclic of the transmission stream additional error detection of each antenna sets Tx#i
Redundant Check, cyclic redundancy check) code (step A2), in order to correct bit-errors, into line number in coding unit 103
According to the coding of stream, in order to retransmit control, HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat are carried out in HARQ processing units 104
ReQuest (step A4)) is handled, the transmission antenna Tx#i of transmission HARQ blocks (process) is selected in sending part 105 and is adjusted
System, is then sent to reception device 200.Here, when using precoding (when step A5 is "Yes"), each process can be selected
Multiple transmission antenna Tx#i are selected, but are sent out from predetermined transmission antenna Tx#i (when step A5 is "No") in PARC
It send.
On the other hand, it in reception device 200, as shown in figure 22, is connect by each in the signal sent from sending device 100
After receiving antenna Rx#i receptions, the separation/synthesis (step B1) of the reception signal is carried out via Signal separator/combining unit 201, is judged
Whether the signal (process) received is repeating transmission process (step B2).If the result is that the process of repeating transmission (step B2 is "Yes"), connects
The connecing signal that this is received and the previous same process for receiving and keeping using HARQ processing units 202 of receiving apparatus 200
The collection of letters number synthesis (step B3).The CRC being attached in each process is checked using CRC operation portion 203, it is thus wrong to detect bit
Accidentally (step B4).In addition, when the process that this is received is not repeating transmission process (step B2 is "No"), without HARQ processing
The synthesis in portion 202, and bit-errors detection (step B4) is carried out by CRC operation portion 203.
Also, when detecting bit-errors in ACK/NACK determination units 204 (step B5 be "Yes"), holding receive into
Journey simultaneously replys NACK signal (step B6), (step when not detecting mistake using transmission antenna ATT to sending device 100
B5 is "No"), ack signal is replied to sending device 100 using transmission antenna ATT, and process is transmitted to upper layer (step
B7).It is exported after the reception signal of each stream of mistake is finally synthesized by stream combining unit 205 in addition, not detecting.
In this series of processes, the critical function needed for high-speed traffic is HARQ.HARQ is to be combined with automatic retransmit to ask
Ask (ARQ) and Error Correction of Coding (FEC:Forward Error Correction, forward error correction) ARQ modes.In particular,
Sending side 100 carries out Error Correction of Coding to the parity check bit of block of information bits additional error detection, and send its all or
A part.When generating repeating transmission, all or part of in the coded-bit for current block is retransmitted.
Corresponding each bit of each existing block carries out synthesis processing in receiving side 200 is to retransmission blocks, uses its knot
The Synthetic block that fruit obtains carries out error correction and error detection processing again.In this way, receiving side 200 repeats to sending side 100
ACK/NACK is replied and decoding process based on repeating transmission retries, until the mistake of the block in scheduled upper limit numbers range disappears
It removes.
In next-generation mobile communicating, (reference describes especially suitable N-channel Stop-and-Wait ARQ below
Non-patent literature 4).Here, N indicates integer, indicate the block number that can be sent simultaneously (into number of passes).About simultaneously send into
Journey carries out the control of the repeating transmission based on Stop and Wait to each process.
Figure 23 indicates the overview of N-channel Stop-and-Wait ARQ.
Unit interval (TTI of each process in wireless transmission:Transmission Time Interval) in sent,
And it is identified using into this identifiers of program number N.The case where being shown in the Figure 23 into number of passes N=5 (0~4), therefore quite
In the 5-channel Stop-and-Wait ARQ the case where.In addition, in fig 23 for convenience, to the data portion of each process
Point additional process serial number indicates, but actually into program number sent by control channel, the data portion of each process
It is not attached into program number.That is, being to be attached to (same as below) sent in the data portion of each process into program number.
Reception device 200 carries out error detection recited above after sending device 100 receives process.In this, it is assumed that
In process 0~4, process " 1 ", " 3 ", " 4 " generate mistake, and process " 0 ", " 2 " are without generating mistake, for no generation mistake
Process " 0 ", " 2 ", to sending device 100 reply ack signal, for produce mistake process " 1 ", " 3 ", " 4 ", storing
Holding process in device (illustration omitted) then replys NACK signal to sending device 100.The reply of ack/nack signal is also logical
Control channel transmission is crossed, but need not be replied into program number when the situation.
Reception device 200 adjusts the turnaround time timing of each process and replys ack/nack signal, thus sending device
100 can identify it is the ack/nack signal for being directed to which process.Carried out after sending device 100 receives ack signal newly into
The transmission of journey, but at this time into program number can arbitrarily add it is including at the time of additional process serial number, past 5 into
Do not have used (in fig 23, to carry out additional process sequence into the ascending order of program number according to original into program number in journey
Number).
On the other hand, after sending device 100 receives NACK, the repeating transmission for producing the process of mistake is carried out, at this time
It is attached into program number with previous into the identical serial number of program number.After retransmission, reception device 200 is identified into program number,
Judgement should be synthesized with which process.That is, when receiving repeating transmission process i.e. process " 1 ", " 3 ", " 4 ", respectively with preceding
It is secondary send the identical process " 1 " into program number kept when NACK signal, " 2 ", " 3 " are grouped synthesis.It examines in post synthesis
CRC is looked into, when without mistakenly receiving, ACK is replied to sending device 100.On the other hand, it when producing mistake, protects
The process after synthesis is held, replys NACK signal to sending device 100 again.
In addition, about synthetic method there are two types of representative method, the present invention can use any synthetic method.One
Kind is identical data when repeating transmission was sent with before when retransmitting, by reception signal when sending in the past and connecing when retransmitting
Collect mail number synthesis, and carry out should decoded data generation, another kind be retransmit when change encode after data contraction
Pattern (puncturing pattern), and send the bit that does not send up to now, reception signal when by former sending and
Reception signal synthesis when repeating transmission, reduces equivalent encoding rate, improves error correcting capability (coding gain).The technology of the latter is referred to as
IR (Incremental Redundancy, steadily increase redundancy).
This process processing is unrelated with the similarities and differences of PARC and precoding that front describes all to be done in the same fashion.Cause
This, continues to explain by taking PARC as an example below.
Figure 24 indicates N-channel Stop-and-Wait when sending device 100 and reception device 200 correspond to PARC
The case where ARQ.
As previously described, in PARC, CRC is additional, encode, HARQ processing is independently carried out for each antenna, institute
Independent serial number is also attached into program number with HARQ.In fig. 24, indicate the process " 1 " sent from transmission antenna Tx#1,
" 3 ", " 4 " and the case where generate repeating transmission from the process " 1 " that transmission antenna Tx#2 is sent (with reference to dotted arrow).In such case
Under, as previously described, HARQ is carried out for each antenna sets, so independently carrying out repeating transmission control to each antenna sets.In addition, into
The addition method of program number is additional according to rule identical with Figure 23.
Also, in the MIMO transmission of next-generation mobile body communication system, in order to be sent between transmission antenna Tx#i
Data-signal separation/synthesis, 100 transmission antenna identification signal of sending device (such as pilot signal and scrambling code).
Figure 25 indicates the pilot signal additional example when transmission antenna of sending device 100 is two.In such as Figure 25
(1) and shown in (2), with same time sequence, different frequency sequence additional pilot signal between each antenna sets Tx#1, Tx#2
(R:Reference Symbol).Reception device 200 is by referring to pilot signal, from the antenna sets Rx#1 by reception device 200
The signal of separate antenna group Tx#1 in received signal, detaches from the antenna sets Rx#2 received signals by reception device 200
The signal of antenna sets Tx#2 makes the stream (process) sent after synthesizing each signal restore.And in general, antenna sets are believed with pilot tone
Number correspondence sent using notification information.

About the communication environment for being applicable in mimo transmission system, such as cell structure shown in Figure 26 can be enumerated.That is, according to
The form of MIMO transmission is divided into a cell form in region, as shown in Figure 26 (1), is located at base station 300 in movement station 400
Inside region (MIMO multiplexing transmissions region) 302 when, carry out MIMO multiplexing transmissions and (spread using two in Figure 26 (1)
It is defeated), when positioned at lateral area (non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions region) 303, it is (sharp in Figure 26 (1) to carry out non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions
With a steaming transfer).In addition, so-called " non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions " for example refers to MIMO diversity transmissions and carries out one using an antenna
The MIMO single transports of the transmitting-receiving of a stream.
Also, as shown in Figure 26 (2), even if there is also in MIMO multiplexing transmissions region 302, but in movement station 400
It carries out near the base station 300 regarding in region 301 in logical in the case of communication, but carries out non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions (in Figure 26 (2)
It is middle to utilize a steaming transfer) the case where.This is because it is related between generating antenna when regarding logical interior communication, so in reception device
It is difficult to carry out the separation/synthesis of signal in 200, it is possible to can not achieve heavy traffic.
In this case, without MIMO multiplexing transmissions near base station 300 in region 301, and with height
Modulation rate, high code-rate carry out non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions, and this method would be possible to realize heavy traffic.
In this way, be not the fixed applicable MIMO multiplexing transmissions in a cell, but it is in place according to the institute of movement station 400
It sets, is also suitable non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions sometimes.For example, movement station 400 wireless quality (such as movement station 400 report to base
Stand 300 SN than average value) be more than some threshold value when, carry out MIMO multiplexing transmissions, carry out non-MIMO when less than the threshold value
Multiplexing transmission.
At this point, stream quantity is reduced to a stream from multiple streams, such as each antenna sets are independently being added as PARC
Into in the method for program number, when flowing quantity reduction, HARQ's repeats (competition) into program number, it is possible to cause to continue to lead to
Letter.
For example, action example when Figure 27 indicates to be switched to MIMO diversity transmissions from MIMO multiplexing transmissions in PARC.It should
The case where example expression flows back to multiple ack/nack signal using one.
From the antenna sets Tx#1 and antenna sets Tx#2 of sending device 100 according to periodically sent shown in Figure 27 process " 0 ",
" 1 ", " 2 " are being replied from reception device 200 to sending device 100 for the process sent from each antenna sets Tx#1, Tx#2
After the ack signal of " 0 ", " 1 ", the timing for utilizing symbol 500 to indicate in figure 27, the position of movement station 400 is from Figure 26 institutes
The MIMO multiplexing transmissions region 302 shown is moved to non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions region (MIMO diversity transmissions region) 301 or 303.
If at this point, the primary antenna group of the sending device 100 of the processing of the stream flowed into is set as antenna sets Tx#2, send out
Device 100 is sent to be sent in the process " 2 " for being switched to and being stored before MIMO diversity transmissions from antenna sets Tx#1 and Tx#2.Receive dress
It sets 200 and receives these signals using antenna sets Rx#1 and Rx#2, carry out the synthesis of signal and build process " 2 ".Then, dress is received
It sets 200 trials progress to synthesize with the grouping of the process " 2 " kept when previous transmission, but generates problems with herein.
(problem 1) reception device 200 cannot identify that repeating transmission process " 2 " should be synthesized with which process of holding.That is, for example
Shown in Figure 28, reception device 200 retransmits process " 2 " by MIMO diversity receptions, but as previously described, is only having viewed into program
Number come in the case of being grouped synthesis, since antenna sets Rx#1 and antenna sets Rx#2 remains process " 2 " respectively, so cannot
Judgement is synthesized with which process.Assuming that the feelings synthesized in the process (reference marks 601) attempted with kept by primary antenna group Rx#2
Under condition, by the process " 2 " of the process " 2 " (reference marks 602) of antenna sets Rx#1 and the antenna sets Rx#2 indicated using symbol 601
It is grouped synthesis so that the conformability of synthesis is destroyed.
In addition, also generating problems with.
(problem 2) generates mistake repeating transmission shown in following situation 1,2 in sending device 100.
The case where (situation 1) is by reply of the time timing adjustment to carry out ack/nack signal
In this case, the reply timing (turnaround time and reply frequency) of ACK/NACK is indicated to movement by base station
It stands.
Figure 29 indicates its overview.Reception device 200 replys ACK/ by the time timing adjustment of primary antenna group Rx#2
NACK signal.At this point, sending device 100 is replied using the timing information of primary antenna group Tx#2 to receive.When the situation, such as Figure 29
Shown, sending device 100 receives the repeating transmission of the timing and the process " 2 " of the antenna sets Tx#2 indicated using symbol 603 of reply
Timing coincidence, should retransmitting antenna group Tx#1 process " 2 ", it is likely that the mistakenly process of retransmitting antenna group Tx#2
“2”.At this time, it is impossible to the process " 2 " of retransmitting antenna group Tx#1.
(situation 2) is not using time timing adjustment but carries out the reply of ack/nack signal using into program number
Situation
The situation refers to the case where reply that ACK/NACK is executed without timing adjustment.Therefore, different from situation 1, no
Reply the instruction of timing adjustment, but additional process serial number is needed when replying ACK/NACK.
Figure 30 indicates its overview.Reception device 200 is expressed into program number from primary antenna group Rx#2 and replys ACK/NACK letters
Number.It is replied at this point, being received by antenna sets Tx#2.At this point, as shown in figure 30, receiving the process for antenna sets Tx#1
When the reply of " 2 ", sending device 100 is erroneously interpreted as being the NACK signal for the process " 2 " of antenna sets Tx#2.Therefore,
It is unable to the process " 2 " of retransmitting antenna group Tx#1.
In this way, when being generated in each antenna sets into problems with will be generated when the repetition of program number, in reception device 200
In not can determine that and will be synthesized between the process of which antenna sets, on the other hand, in sending device 100 generate process mistake
It accidentally retransmits so that the process that should be retransmitted cannot be retransmitted.
Also, confirm response (ack/nack signal) flowing to sending device 100 using two from reception device 200 and replying
When, it also leads to the problem of identical as the above problem.Figure 31 and Figure 32 indicate such case.That is, in reception device 200, such as scheme
Shown in 28, it not can determine that repeating transmission process " 2 " should be closed with which process kept respectively by antenna sets Rx#1 and antenna sets Rx#2
At.Also, led to the problem of in sending device 100 with above with the identical problem of Figure 29 and Figure 30 narrations.
That is, when being switched to MIMO diversity transmissions from MIMO multiplexing transmissions,
(1) in the case where the confirmation response replied from reception device 200 is replied from antenna sets Rx#2, such as Figure 31 institutes
Show, reply ack/nack signal from the transmission antenna ATT2 of reception device 200, but when the situation, the action of sending device 100 with
Figure 29 is identical with the situation shown in Figure 30, so leading to the process " 2 " of mistakenly retransmitting antenna group Tx#2, and is unable to retransmitting antenna
The process " 2 " of group Tx#1,
(2) in the case where the confirmation response replied from reception device 200 is replied by MIMO diversity, such as Figure 32 institutes
Show, ack/nack signal is replied from transmission antenna ATT1 and ATT2, so 100 diversity reception of sending device is by reception antenna ATR1
The signal replied with ATR2, but since primary antenna group is antenna sets Tx#2, so it is to be directed to antenna sets Tx# that finally they, which are determined,
2 reply.Therefore, lead to the process " 2 " of mistakenly retransmitting antenna group Tx#2, and be unable to the process " 2 " of retransmitting antenna group Tx#1.

It flows combining unit 25 to synthesize the stream that the CRC operation result in each CRC operation portion 23 is OK, and defeated as data are received
Go out.
Also, course allocation portion 26 identify receiving process into program number, Signal separator/conjunction is controlled into program number according to this
At in portion 21 Signal separator and synthesis processing, which is distributed and is inputed in each HARQ reception processing units 22
Either one.It, will be into using in program number appendix 17 in course allocation portion 26 in addition, in order to identify this into program number
Be stored in advance in memory (not shown) etc. into program number and with the relevant information of its addition method, make 1 He of sending device
Reception device 2 shares the addition method into program number.
Hereinafter, illustrating the action of the mimo transmission system of present embodiment formed as described above using Fig. 3~Fig. 8.
First, in sending device 1, transmission data is separated into the hair of each antenna sets Tx#i using flow separation portion 11
Stream is sent, and is utilized respectively corresponding CRC appendix 12 to add CRC code, is then encoded into Turbo code using coding unit 13
Etc. necessary error correcting code, and it is input to HARQ transmission processe departments 14.
In HARQ transmission processe departments 14, HARQ processing (block) is carried out to the transmission stream inputted from coding unit 13 respectively,
As shown in Fig. 2, the additional process serial number under the control into program number appendix 17, and the HARQ blocks (process) are preserved, in case weight
Hair control is used, and sends sending part 15 to.
Sending part 15 implements the wireless transmission that front describes to the process inputted from each HARQ transmission processe departments 14 as a result,
Processing, and it is sent to reception device 2 from any one transmission antenna Tx#i.Fig. 3 schematically illustrates the situation.The Fig. 3 indicates to send
The case where antenna sets of reception are respectively n=2, expression are set to " antenna identifier " of antenna sets Tx#1, Tx#2
" 0 ", " 1 ", " serial number " of HARQ blocks is set as 0,1,2 ..., to the process sent from antenna sets Tx#1 add successively " 0-0 ",
" 0-1 ", " 0-2 " ... it is such into program number, " 1-0 ", " 1-1 ", " 1- are added successively to the process sent from antenna sets Tx#2
2 " ... such into program number, and be sent to reception device 2 (with reference in Fig. 3 towards the solid arrow below paper) the case where.
In addition, sending device 1 (is hereinafter sometimes referred to passed in such as generation from MIMO multiplexing transmissions to the switching of MIMO diversity transmissions
Defeated pattern switching) the case where like that (with reference to the symbol 500 in Fig. 3) after being reduced using antenna sets quantity, with above description phase
Together, the above-mentioned addition method into program number into program number appendix 17 is also maintained, stream transmission is carried out.Here, in primary antenna group
At the end of stream other than Tx#i is sent, the antenna identifier can also be omitted, the transmitting and receiving of process is carried out.Wherein, so-called
" primary antenna group " refers to switches the front and back antenna sets (same as below) for maintaining to use in transmission mode, refers to antenna in the example of fig. 3
Group Tx#2.
Fig. 4 indicates the action flow chart of the sending device 1 comprising this option.That is, the utilization of sending device 1 is attached into program number
Add portion 17 according to additional process serial number described above and carry out stream transmission (step S11), monitors and sentence using repeating transmission control unit 16
It is fixed whether to produce transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (step S12), if not generating transmission mode
Switching (step S12 be "No") is then retransmitted control unit 16 and is controlled into program number appendix 17 and HARQ transmission processe departments 14, so as to
Continue to attached the stream transmission into program number.
In contrast, it if producing transmission mode switching (step S12 is "Yes"), retransmits control unit 16 and determines whether
There is no the data (process) (step S13) that should send other than primary antenna group Tx#i, if there is (step S13 is
"No"), then it is identical as above-mentioned steps S11, it controls into program number appendix 17 and HARQ transmission processe departments 14, will pass through process
17 additional process serial number of serial number appendix, and carry out stream transmission (step S14).
On the other hand, if there is no the data (process) that should be sent, (step S13 is other than primary antenna group Tx#i
"Yes"), then it retransmits control unit 16 and controls into program number appendix 17 and HARQ transmission processe departments 14, described in additional be omitted
Into program number element, that is, antenna identifier into program number, and carry out stream transmission (step S15).
On the other hand, in reception device 2, using Signal separator/combining unit 21 according to the control from course allocation portion 26
System, will be detached by each reception antenna Rx#i received signals according to each process, and distribute to each receiving areas HARQ
Either one in reason portion 22.
In HARQ reception processing units 22, respectively by from the Signal separator/combining unit 21 receiving process with into program
It number stores, is used in case retransmitting synthesis processing together, retransmit the process stored and from sending device 1 the same process sequence to come
Number repeating transmission process synthesis (in the case of no repeating transmission process, directly exporting receiving process).
Then, CRC fortune is implemented to the receiving process exported from HARQ reception processing units 22 in corresponding CRC operation portion 23
It calculates, confirmation answer signal (ack signal or NACK signal) corresponding with the operation result is generated by ACK/NACK determination units 24, it will
The signal feeds back to sending device 1 via transmission antenna ATT (towards the arrow above paper in reference Fig. 3).Wherein, ACK/
NACK determination units 24 make the confirmation answer signal include antenna identifier or into program number.
In addition, for the above-mentioned normal process of CRC operation result, in flowing combining unit 25 by it with other receiving streams into
Cheng Hecheng, and as the data output being received normally, for the process of CRC operation results abnormity, it is not input to stream combining unit
It is discarded in 25.
In addition, controlled in sending device 1 into program number appendix 17 and HARQ transmission processe departments 14, if so as to from connecing
Receiving apparatus 2 receives ack signal and then sends new process as confirmation answer signal, if receiving NACK signal, retransmits and exists
It is abnormal process in reception device 2.In addition, according to the antenna identifier or process that include in the confirmation answer signal received
Serial number determines the process for new process/should retransmit.
As a result, HARQ transmission processe departments 14 also retransmitted in the process of repeating transmission into program number and when previous transmission into program number
Identical process, reception device 2 are controlled by the identification of the receiving process serial number in course allocation portion 26, the distribution of receiving process,
When as being switched to the non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions such as MIMO diversity transmissions or MIMO single transports from MIMO multiplexing transmissions, even if hair
It send stream quantity (transmission antenna quantity) to change, the synthesis of correct process can be also carried out in HARQ reception processing units 22.
For example, it is contemplated that the timing indicated in figure 3 using symbol 500 produces the switching to MIMO diversity transmissions, send
Antenna amount from 2 be reduced to 1 (only antenna sets Tx#2) the case where, no matter reception device 2 is after this switching from sending device 2
Which receives into the repeating transmission process (towards the double arrows below paper in reference Fig. 3) of program number, process can be passed through
Dispenser 26 carries out the distribution of correct process, and carries out the synthesis of correct process, i.e. between the identical process of program number
Synthesis.I.e., it is possible to prevent the destruction (foregoing problems 1 can be solved) of the conformability of synthesis.
Also, as described below the case where answering method of 1,2 couple of ACK/NACK is studied, and thus can also be solved
Foregoing problems 2, i.e., the mistake that process is generated in sending device 1 are retransmitted so that asking for the process that should be retransmitted cannot be retransmitted
Topic.
(situation 1) is by timing adjustment come (Fig. 5, Fig. 6) the case where receiving ack/nack signal
Fig. 5 indicates the schematic diagram for being equivalent to Fig. 3 in the situation 1.As shown in Fig. 5, even if producing transmission mould
After formula switches (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (reference marks 500), reception device 2 also utilizes (additional) each antenna sets
Antenna identifier carries out the reply of confirmation answer signal (ack/nack signal).Here, the meaning of " utilization " antenna identifier is not
Refer to that expressly additional antenna identifier replys ack/nack signal, even and if refer to for example being confirmed as one in primary antenna group
When a, sending device also indicates reception device the frequency band of the ack/nack signal of each antenna sets, reception device utilize the frequency
It brings and replys ACK/NACK.Therefore, sending device analyzes its frequency band when receiving ack/nack signal, and just can identify is
For the ACK/NACK of which antenna sets.On the other hand, the meaning of " additional " antenna identifier is as shown in figure 5, refer to ACK/
NACK signal expressly additional antenna identifier.
Such as in Figure 5, it is generated after transmission mode switches from (the main days antenna sets Tx#1 of sending device 1 if focused on
Line group is Tx#2) send process " 0-2 ", then reception device 2 using ACK/NACK determination units 24 generation attached the reception into
The serial number element (part) i.e. of journey " 0-2 " signal of antenna identifier " 0 " is as the response confirmation letter for the process " 0-2 "
Number, reply to sending device 1.
Sending device 1 is to be at least just directed to the reply of the confirmation answer signal of transmission process as a result, between reception device 2
Before timing acquisition synchronization (that is, sending device 1 confirms answer signal by the timing adjustment between reception device 2 to receive) is
It carries, repeating transmission control unit 16 can be utilized to identify the confirmation answer signal for process " 0-2 ", thus will not be mistakenly
Repeating transmission process " 1-2 " can correctly retransmit process " 0-2 " from primary antenna group Tx#2.
In addition, the case where sending device 1 omits transmitting and receiving of the antenna identifier to carry out process as described above
Under (in the case of whole processes except primary antenna group Tx#2 can be transmitted), for confirm response reply, even if omit
Antenna identifier sends confirmation response, due to having carried out timing adjustment, so it is which is directed to that sending device 1, which also can recognize that,
The confirmation answer signal of a process.
Fig. 6 indicates the action flow chart of the reception device 2 in the situation 1.
That is, reception device 2 monitors and determines whether to produce transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (step
Rapid S21), if not generating transmission mode switching (step S21 is "No"), attached by the generation of ACK/NACK determination units 24
The confirmation answer signal of serial number element, that is, antenna identifier of receiving process, and reply to sending device 1.Believe in the confirmation response
Number be NACK signal when, by HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmit synthesis use (step S22).
On the other hand, when producing transmission mode switching (step S21 is "Yes"), reception device 2 utilizes course allocation
Portion 26 carries out the separation (into the identification of program number) (step S23) of receiving process, determines whether to be attached with antenna identifier (step
S24).As a result, if the case where being attached with antenna identifier (step S24 is "Yes"), reception device 2 and above-mentioned steps S22
It is identical, the confirmation answer signal for the i.e. antenna identifier of serial number element that attached receiving process is generated, and reply to sending device
1, and when the confirmation answer signal is NACK signal, receiving process is kept by HARQ reception processing units 22, is closed in case retransmitting
At with (step S25).
In contrast, in no additional antenna identifier (step S24 is "No"), reception device 2 is due to being determined
When adjust, so confirming that antenna identifier is omitted in the reply of response, and reply to sending device 1, and believe in the confirmation response
Number be NACK signal when, by HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmit synthesis use (step S26).
In this way, in the situation 1, as long as producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions), needing
Each transmission process is identified between each antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i), just to confirming answer signal only additional receptive into program number
Its information content is suppressed to minimum limit while replying to sending device 1, can transmit main day by information element, that is, antenna identifier
Whole processes other than line group Tx#2, if need not identify each transmission process between each antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i),
Then omit the additional of the antenna identifier, it is possible to realize the effective of the radio resource between sending device 1 and reception device 2
It utilizes.
(situation 2) expressly additional process serial number come (Fig. 7, Fig. 8) the case where replying ack/nack signal
Fig. 7 indicates the schematic diagram for being equivalent to Fig. 3, Fig. 5 in this case.As shown in Fig. 7, even if producing transmission mould
After formula switches (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (reference marks 500), due to not having between sending device and reception device
It is timed adjustment, so expressly additional process serial number replys ACK/NACK to reception device 2.
For example, in the situation 2, in the figure 7, produced after transmission mode switches from sending device 1 if focused on
The process " 0-2 " that antenna sets Tx#1 (primary antenna group is Tx#2) is sent, then 24 generation of the utilization ACK/NACK of reception device 2 determination units
The signal into program number of the receiving process " 0-2 " be attached as the confirmation answer signal for the process " 0-2 ", replied to
Sending device 1.
As a result, no matter whether just for the confirmation answer signal of transmission process between sending device 1 and reception device 2
Timing acquisition synchronization is replied, repeating transmission control unit 16 can be utilized to identify the confirmation answer signal is which antenna be directed to
The reply (being the reply for process " 0-2 " in this example) of which process of group Tx#i, thus will not wrong repeating transmission process " 1-
2 ", process " 0-2 " can be correctly retransmitted from primary antenna group Tx#2.
Fig. 8 shows the action flow charts of the reception device 2 in the situation 2.
That is, reception device 2 monitors and determines whether to produce transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (step
Rapid S31), if not generating transmission mode switching (step S31 is "No"), attached by the generation of ACK/NACK determination units 24
The confirmation answer signal of receiving process serial number, and reply to sending device 1.When the confirmation answer signal is NACK signal, by
HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmitting synthesis uses (step S32).
On the other hand, when producing transmission mode switching (step S31 is "Yes"), reception device 2 passes through course allocation
Portion 26 carries out the separation (into the identification of program number) (step S33) of receiving process, determines whether to be attached with antenna identifier (step
S34).As a result, if the case where being attached with antenna identifier (step S34 is "Yes"), reception device 2 and above-mentioned steps S32
Identical, additional receptive replys confirmation answer signal into program number and to sending device 1, and is NACK in the confirmation answer signal
In the case of signal, receiving process is kept by HARQ reception processing units 22, in case retransmitting synthesis uses (step S35).
In contrast, in the case of no additional antenna identifier (step S34 is "No"), that is, sending device 1 can
Whole processes other than primary antenna group Tx#i are transmitted, and in the case of omitting transmitting and receiving of the antenna identifier to carry out process,
Since the additional of antenna identifier can be omitted, so the not additional antenna identifier of reception device 2, utilizes primary antenna group Tx#2's
Serial number (identical with the previous mode of antenna identifier is omitted into program number) is replied to sending device 1 confirms answer signal,
And when the confirmation answer signal is NACK signal, receiving process is kept by HARQ reception processing units 22, in case retransmitting synthesis
With (step S36).
In this way, in the situation 2, as long as producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions), needing
Each transmission process is identified between each antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i), just back and forth to confirmation answer signal additional receptive into program number
Again to sending device 1, so even if there is no the reply of the just confirmation answer signal for transmission process between reception device 2
In the case that timing acquisition synchronizes, the process that retransmit can be also correctly identified in sending device 1, can reliably be pressed down
The mistake of repeating transmission process processed is retransmitted.
Also, in the situation 2, whole processes other than primary antenna group Tx#2 can be transmitted, if you do not need to each
Transmission process is identified between antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i), then the additional of the transmission antenna is omitted, so sending device 1 can be realized
Radio resource between reception device 2 efficiently uses.
(B) explanation of the 2nd embodiment
Fig. 9 is side indicating the structure of the mimo transmission system of the second embodiment of the present invention, being equivalent to Fig. 2

Into the method for program number.That is, repeating to add a series of methods into program number to whole antenna sets Tx#i.For example, for antenna
Being expressed as into program number using Bit String of group Tx#1 " ... 00000 ", for being expressed as into program number for antenna sets Tx#n
" ... 00111 ", and being expressed as into program number after antenna sets Tx#1 " ... 01000 ", after antenna sets Tx#n
Be expressed as into program number " ... 01111 ".
(2) as shown in Figure 10, additional independent (not competing according to ascending order (can also be descending) to each antenna sets Tx#i
Strive) a series of methods into program number.For example, the process serial number " ... 00000~... 00111 " of antenna sets Tx#1, day
The process serial number " ... 01000~... 01111 " of line group Tx#2, antenna sets Tx#3 process serial number " ... 10000~
...11111”。
That is, this example into program number appendix (control unit) 17A in order to realize it is identical with the 1st embodiment, flowing
Between do not have the competitive additional control into program number, also play the effect by group serial number gencration portion, a series of serial number believed
Breath is according to each flow point group, for each stream, using the serial number information in corresponding group as should be attached in transmission process
It is supplied to HARQ transmission processe departments 14 into program number (data block identification information).
In addition, no matter in which kind of of above-mentioned (1) and (2), in order to avoid the problem identical as the 1st embodiment,
It is required for sharing the addition method into program number between sending device 1 and reception device 2.
That is, in order to identify this into program number, in the course allocation portion 26A of reception device 2, in memory (not shown) etc.
In be stored in advance in into program number appendix 17A in use into program number and with the relevant information of the addition method, sending
The addition method into program number is shared between device 1 and reception device 2.Course allocation portion 26A can identify receiving process as a result,
Into program number, and according to this into program number control Signal separator/combining unit 21 in Signal separator and synthesis handle, should
Receiving process distributes and inputs to either one in each HARQ reception processing units 22.
Hereinafter, illustrating the dynamic of the mimo transmission system of present embodiment formed as described above using Figure 11~Figure 14 together
Make.
First, in sending device 1, transmission data is separated into the transmission of each antenna sets Tx#i by flow separation portion 11

Processing, and it is sent to reception device 2 from any one transmission antenna Tx#i.Figure 11 schematically illustrates the situation.The Figure 11 is suitable
In the figure of Fig. 3 of the 1st embodiment, indicate that the antenna sets of transmitting and receiving are respectively n=2 and have been applicable in shown in Fig. 9 attached
The case where adding method, shows to even number process as the process that is sent from antenna sets Tx#1 successively attached Plus "0", " 2 ", " 4 "
Serial number adds the process sent from antenna sets Tx#2 and is directed to the independent (not competing into program number of antenna sets Tx#1 successively
Strive), " 1 ", " 3 ", odd number as " 5 " into program number, and be sent to reception device 2 (with reference in Fig. 9 towards below paper
Solid arrow) the case where.
In addition, in the present embodiment, even if sending device 1 is as produced (referring to Fig.1 1 of transmission mode switching
Symbol 500) situation like that use antenna sets quantity reduce after, it is also same as described above, maintain into the above-mentioned of program number appendix 17A
Into the addition method of program number, and carry out stream transmission.
In reception device 2, such as process " 4 " and process " 5 " are had received shown in Figure 11, pass through course allocation
Portion 26A can identify each into program number, and distribute to correct antenna sets Rx#i.Therefore, it is cut even if producing transmission mode
It changes, synthesis, the conjunction i.e. between the process of same process serial number that correct process can be also carried out by HARQ reception processing units 22
At.That is, the destruction (can solve foregoing problems 1) of the conformability of synthesis can be prevented.
Also, it is identical as the 1st embodiment in the present embodiment, according to shown in following situation 1,2 to ACK/NACK
Answering method studied, thus can also solve foregoing problems 2, i.e., in sending device 1 generate process mistake retransmit make
The problem of process that obtaining should retransmit cannot be retransmitted.
(situation 1) is by timing adjustment come (Figure 13) the case where receiving ack/nack signal
Reception device 2 is producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO the diversity transmissions) (symbol in 1 referring to Fig.1
500) after, as the 1st embodiment 1, the antenna identifier of (additional) each antenna sets is utilized, confirmation answer signal is carried out
(ACK/NACK) reply.Here, the meaning of " utilization " and " additional " antenna identifier is identical as the 1st embodiment.
In addition, after being switched to MIMO diversity, in the 1st embodiment, it is meant that when reception device receive it is not attached
Add antenna identifier into program number when, only send the process of self-consistent antenna group.But in the 2nd embodiment, due to not having
To reception into program number additional antenna identifier, so when by certain section of time (T), sending device 1 is only from primary antenna group
(referring to antenna sets Tx#2 in case of fig. 11) sends process.Therefore, after time T, reception device 2 is for confirming response
Reply can be omitted antenna identifier, can only using primary antenna group timing information to sending device 1 reply confirm response
Signal.
Figure 13 indicates the action flow chart of the reception device 2 in the situation 1.
As shown in Fig. 13, reception device 2 monitors and determines whether to produce transmission mode switching (to MIMO diversity transmissions
Change) (step S51) given birth to if not generating transmission mode switching (step S51 be "No") by ACK/NACK determination units 24
At utilization (additional) the confirmation answer signal of antenna identifier, and reply to sending device 1.In addition, believing in the confirmation response
Number be NACK signal when, by HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmit synthesis use (step S52).
On the other hand, when producing transmission mode switching (step S51 is "Yes"), reception device 2 utilizes course allocation
Portion 26A carries out the separation (into the identification of program number) (step S53) of receiving process, and determines whether to have passed through time T (step
S54).As a result, if passing through time T (step S54 be "No"), phase the case where reception device 2 and above-mentioned steps S52
Together, it generates and utilizes (additional) confirmation answer signal of antenna identifier, and reply to sending device 1, and answered in the confirmation
Answer signal be NACK signal when, by HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmit synthesis use (step S55).
In contrast, if having passed through time T (step S54 is "Yes"), reception device 2 utilizes the timing of primary antenna group
Information replys to sending device 1 and confirms answer signal, and when the confirmation answer signal is NACK signal, is received by HARQ
Processing unit 22 keeps receiving process, in case retransmitting synthesis uses (step S56).
In this way, in the situation 1, when producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions), as long as needing
Each transmission process is identified between each antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i), just utilize (additional) each antenna identifier, Xiang Fa
It send device 1 to reply and confirms answer signal, whole processes other than primary antenna group Tx#2 can be transmitted, if you do not need in each day
Each transmission process is identified between line group Tx#i (Rx#i), then can only be answered using the timing information of primary antenna group to reply confirmation
It answers, so efficiently using for the radio resource between sending device 1 and reception device 2 can be realized.
(situation 2) expressly additional process serial number come (Figure 14) the case where replying ack/nack signal
Even if reception device 2 is producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (referring to Fig.1 in 1
Symbol 500) after, also expressly additional process serial number replys ACK/NACK.For example, in fig. 11, being produced if focused on
The process " 4 " sent from the antenna sets Tx#1 (primary antenna group is Tx#2) of sending device 1 after transmission mode switching, then reception device
2 generate the signal into program number that attached the receiving process " 4 " using ACK/NACK determination units 24 as the process " 4 "
Response confirmation signal, reply to sending device 1.
Sending device 1 can utilize repeating transmission control unit 16 to identify the confirmation answer signal is which antenna be directed to as a result,
The reply (being the reply for process " 4 " in this example) of which process of group Tx#i, to will not wrong repeating transmission process " 5 ",
Process " 4 " can be correctly retransmitted from primary antenna group Tx#2.
In addition, in the situation 2, after generating transmission mode switching, if having passed through certain time (T), dress is sent
It sets 1 and sends process from primary antenna group, but send process into program number after time T, sending device 2 cannot be omitted.
In the situation 2, after generating transmission mode switching, only sent out from primary antenna group even across certain time (T), sending device 1
It is sent into journey, it is also different from situation 1, Timing Synchronization cannot be obtained, so needing additional process serial number to reply confirmation response.
Figure 14 indicates the action flow chart of the reception device 2 in the situation 2.
That is, reception device 2 monitors and determines whether to produce transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions) (step
Rapid S61), if not generating transmission mode switching (step S61 is "No"), attached by the generation of ACK/NACK determination units 24
The confirmation answer signal of receiving process serial number, and reply to sending device 1.In addition, being NACK signal in the confirmation answer signal
When, receiving process is kept by HARQ reception processing units 22, in case retransmitting synthesis uses (step S62).
On the other hand, when producing transmission mode switching (step S61 is "Yes"), reception device 2 utilizes course allocation
The separation (into the identification of program number) (step S63) that portion 26A carries out receiving process all generates attached in spite of have passed through time T
The confirmation answer signal of receiving process serial number is added, and has replied to sending device 1, and has believed for NACK in the confirmation answer signal
Number when, by HARQ reception processing units 22 keep receiving process, in case retransmit synthesis use (step S66).
In this way, in the situation 2, when producing transmission mode switching (change to MIMO diversity transmissions), as long as needing
Each transmission process is identified between each antenna sets Tx#i (Rx#i), all to confirming answer signal additional receptive into program number
Sending device 1 is replied to, so even if there is no the just confirmation answer signal for transmission process between reception device 2
In the case that reply timing acquirement is synchronous, the process that retransmit can be also correctly identified in sending device 1, it can be reliable
Ground inhibits the mistake of repeating transmission process to retransmit.
(C) explanation of the 3rd embodiment
In above-mentioned 1st and the 2nd embodiment, for the addition method into program number, show according in each day
The mode that will not be competed between line group is added, even if being thus switched to non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions from MIMO multiplexing transmissions
In the case of, the synthesis of correct process can be also carried out, prevents the mistake of process from retransmitting, and can persistently be flowed without interruption
Transmission show but in the present embodiment even if according to each antenna sets transmission will be independently appended upon into program number
The method that in existing PARC or precoding in stream also steaming transfer can persistently communicated without interruption.
In the present embodiment, focus on initially produce transmission mode switching when, due to the day other than primary antenna group
Residue has process and generates the case where mistake is retransmitted in line group.Therefore, mistake is retransmitted in order to prevent, is cut from MIMO multiplexing transmissions
When being changed to such as MIMO diversity transmissions, is measured, made according to remaining process (not sending process) in the antenna sets other than primary antenna group
The constant time lag of the switching (the reduction control of stream quantity) (such as after the transmission whole of remaining process, is implemented this and is cut
It changes).
The communications status between sending device 1 and reception device 2 when Figure 15 indicates to be applicable in this method.Fig. 5 and Fig. 7,
In Figure 11, detecting reception device 2 from MIMO multiplexing transmissions region 302 (with reference to Figure 26) to non-MIMO multiplexing transmissions region
When (MIMO diversity region) 301,303 is moved, the switching (reference to MIMO diversity transmissions is implemented at once in sending device 1
Symbol 500).
In contrast, in fig.15, even if detecting that (region becomes for above-mentioned movement in the timing indicated using symbol 600
Change), due to there is remaining process " 2 " in antenna sets Tx#1 at the time point, so sending device 1 continues MIMO multiplexings
Transmission, actually from MIMO multiplexing transmissions to the switching of MIMO diversity transmissions be the (example after the end of transmission of remaining process " 2 "
The timing for such as utilizing symbol 700 to indicate).Even if as a result, unlike the 1st embodiment and the 2nd embodiment, using special
Into program number addition method, also can by simpler control, do not interrupt steaming transfer when generating pattern switching and continue into
Row communication.
But in the method, before the repeating transmission of remaining process " 2 " success, MIMO diversity cannot be switched to.Therefore,
Such as shown in Figure 16, other than the switching threshold (threshold value A in relation to wireless quality) of MIMO diversity transmissions, also set up even if surplus
The remaining threshold value for thering is process to be also switched to MIMO diversity (the threshold value B about wireless quality<A).Also, sending device 1 is receiving dress
When setting the wireless quality of (movement station) 2 between threshold value A and threshold value B, if there is remaining process, then continues MIMO multiplexings and pass
It is defeated, if wireless quality is less than threshold value B, no matter whether there is or not remaining datas, all it is switched to MIMO diversity transmissions.
In addition, above functions can for example be mounted for a function of the repeating transmission control unit 16 that front describes, it can also
It is mounted for independent control unit (transmission mode switching timing control unit).Also, such as handle can be utilized to be surveyed by reception device 2
The reception quality informations such as fixed SIR and CQI feed back to the known method of sending device 1 etc., and sending device 1 is made to will appreciate that reception
The wireless quality (same as below) of device 2.
(D) explanation of the 4th embodiment
Here, it is identical as the 3rd above-mentioned embodiment, it shows be independently appended upon into program number according to each antenna sets handle
Into the previous PARC sent in flowing, the other methods of steaming transfer are persistently carried out without interruption.
It is also identical as the 3rd embodiment in present embodiment 4, when focusing on generation transmission mode switching, due in master
Residue has process and generates the case where mistake is retransmitted in antenna sets other than antenna sets.That is, from MIMO multiplexing transmissions to non-
When MIMO multiplexing transmissions (MIMO diversity transmissions) carry out pattern switching, it is more than the threshold value of switching in the wireless quality of reception device 2
(threshold value A), but it is less than other threshold values (threshold value C) (i.e. threshold value C>Threshold value A>Threshold value B), and in the antenna sets other than primary antenna group
In the case of not having transmission data (process), sending device 1 is not to wait for wireless quality and reaches threshold value A hereinafter, and at the time point
Just it is switched to MIMO diversity transmissions later.
Figure 17 indicates above-mentioned threshold value A, the setting example of C.Also, Figure 18 indicates to be applicable in the hair in the case of the method for this example
Send the communications status between device 1 and reception device 2.
Following situations is shown in FIG. 18:Detecting that reception device 2 is multiplexed from MIMO multiplexing transmissions region to non-MIMO
After transmission region (MIMO diversity region) mobile (reference marks 600), sending device 1 receives the process for antenna sets Tx#1
The NACK signal (with reference to dotted arrow 610) of " 2 ", so the repeating transmission of the process of generation " 2 ", is directed to having been replied to sending device 1
After the ack signal (with reference to solid arrow 620) of the repeating transmission process, all remaining process of horse back transmission antenna group Tx#1.At this
After sample is without the time point of remaining process, if the wireless quality of reception device 2 is between threshold value A and threshold value C, send
Device 1 is switched to MIMO diversity transmissions at once in the timing indicated using symbol 700.
In addition, above functions can for example be mounted for a function of the repeating transmission control unit 16 that front describes, it can also
It is mounted for independent control unit (transmission mode switching timing control unit).As long as also, above-mentioned threshold value A, threshold value B, threshold value C
Meet relationship threshold C>Threshold value A>Threshold value B, so that it may to concurrently set.
