Embodiment
Below by drawings and Examples, technical scheme of the present invention is described in further detail.
As shown in Figure 1, it is for achieving the above object a kind of that the embodiment of the present invention provides, first aspect present invention provides a kind of method of reducing PAR of OFDM system, the executive agent of described method can be for access point (the Access Point of subscriber equipment in WLAN (wireless local area network), AP), also can be can accessing WLAN in WLAN (wireless local area network) handheld terminal, described method comprises:
Step 1, the frequency domain symbol signal that needs are sent carries out inverse fast Fourier transform, obtains the first time-domain signal sequence;
Concrete and, corresponding in ofdm system access point or access terminal need the data that send, need to modulate at frequency domain, after modulation, carry out inverse fast Fourier transform (Inverse fast Fourier transform, IFFT), obtain the time-domain signal of modulation signal, owing to adjusting signal, be carried on respectively on different data subcarriers, through N point IFFT, conversion obtains the time-domain signal sequence that N is ordered to the frequency-region signal sequence that N is ordered, and these time-domain signal sequences form an OFDM symbol.
Step 2 is searched over the time-domain signal of power threshold and the time-domain position of described time-domain signal in described the first time-domain signal sequence;
Particularly, after having determined the time-domain signal sequence of modulation signal, select therein the position of several time-domain signals that power is larger and these time-domain signals, also can select power to surpass several time-domain signals of setting thresholding, and determine time-domain position and complex values when power is got maximum;
Concrete, can determine time-domain signal watt level by real part and the imaginary part quadratic sum of complex values in time domain, the real part of time-domain signal and imaginary part can also be contrasted respectively, choose real part absolute value maximum, or the time-domain signal of imaginary part absolute value maximum.
Step 3, in the first subcarrier, send frequency domain auxiliary signal, described frequency domain auxiliary signal is adjusted, so that the second time-domain signal after described frequency domain auxiliary signal time-frequency conversion is maximum at the time-domain position power of the first time-domain signal, opposite direction, described the first time-domain signal is prominent time-domain signal in described time-domain signal;
Concrete, can in idle sub-carrier, send independent frequency domain auxiliary signal, or when not needing to carry out channel estimating, pilot tone is reduced to peak-to-average force ratio as frequency domain auxiliary signal, but for these frequency domain auxiliary signals, need to adjust its phase place, make the position of its reverse amplitude maximum after frequency domain to time domain changes identical with the position of the first time-domain signal.
Step 4, is added described second time-domain signal of the auxiliary signal after adjusting and described the first time-domain signal sequence, to reduce the peak-to-average force ratio of described the first time-domain signal sequence.
Concrete, in time domain by the complex values of the time-domain signal of the frequency domain auxiliary signal after adjusting, be added with the complex values of the first time-domain signal, because time-domain position is identical, but single spin-echo, has therefore reduced the amplitude of adjusting signal, because the maximum power value of peak-to-average force ratio and modulation signal is in direct ratio, therefore reached the effect that reduces peak-to-average force ratio
But, only through in prominent time-domain signal in the time-domain signal of the frequency domain auxiliary signal in a subcarrier and frequency-region signal with after peak-to-average force ratio, might not meet the peak-to-average force ratio threshold value of setting, therefore after step 4, system detects the whether satisfied thresholding of setting of described peak-to-average force ratio after reducing, if met the peak-to-average force ratio threshold requirement of setting, stop computing, this auxiliary signal is sent to receiving terminal together with modulation signal, otherwise, in the situation that not meeting setting thresholding, select another one frequency domain auxiliary signal repeated execution of steps 3 to step 4, in the first time domain sequences, select next prominent time-domain signal, adopt frequency domain auxiliary signal on another subcarrier to carry out the operation of peak-to-average force ratio reduction, if after again carrying out, peak-to-average force ratio does not still meet and sets thresholding, can select again to perform step 3 to step 4, until do not meet and set the time-domain signal of thresholding or there is no available frequency domain auxiliary signal.
Pass through the above embodiments, in the poor idle sub-carrier of signal to noise ratio, send reference signal as auxiliary signal or in the situation that not needing channel estimating using pilot signal as auxiliary signal, and adjust the phase place of auxiliary signal, maximum time-domain signal stack in the modulation signal that the reverse maximum of auxiliary signal and needs are sent, in and the method for modulation signal time domain power, reduce the peak-to-average force ratio of adjusting signal in ofdm system, the computation complexity of can demoting, improves signal treatment effeciency.
In a kind of possible execution mode, in the situation that ofdm system is used part bandwidth for transmission data, conventionally only select the good subcarrier carrying of noise ripple to need the data that send, the poor subcarrier of signal to noise ratio becomes idle sub-carrier, therefore, in the present embodiment, transmitting terminal can send auxiliary signal at the poor subcarrier of signal to noise ratio, can reach the effect that reduces PAPR.
For example 802.11ah system is under 2MHz bandwidth, each OFDM symbol of data field has 52 data subcarriers, suppose only to have selected 40 best subcarriers of performance to be used for transmitting data under frequency-selective channel, 12 idle data subcarriers can be used for reducing PAPR, supposes to need with BPSK modulation the data of transmission.
First calculate 40 data subcarriers after IFFT, the time-domain position of prominent 1 point and complex values, and select one group of idle sub-carrier, according to the peaked time-domain position of data subcarrier power, the phase place of symbol in idle sub-carrier is adjusted in the position of the positive and negative and idle sub-carrier of real imaginary part, make idle sub-carrier in the peaked position of data subcarrier power, get symbol maximum on the contrary, then calculate the IFFT of this group idle sub-carrier, after recalculating data stack idle sub-carrier, whether time-domain signal maximum meets the peak-to-average force ratio threshold requirement of setting, if do not meet, increase gradually idle sub-carrier number until satisfied default PAPR thresholding or idle sub-carrier number are used full.
Wherein adjust idle sub-carrier phase place, making the method that its reverse maximum is identical with the position of prominent data field signal can be frequency domain adjustment, namely:
Known idle sub-carrier position K and data time domain maximum position are T, Nc is total sub-carrier number, pi is circumference ratio, exp() represent the exponent arithmetic symbol of natural number e, idle sub-carrier frequency-region signal is multiplied by exp(-j*2pi*K/Nc*T), and be added minimum principle selection sign symbol according to the peaked complex values of data.
Or, in time domain, adjust, first, calculate the IFFT time-domain signal of one group of idle sub-carrier, afterwards, according to order from left to right, according to data time domain maximum position T, the IFFT of this group is carried out to cyclic shift T to the right.According to the peaked complex values of data, be added minimum principle and select sign symbol.
In addition, calculating 40 data subcarriers after IFFT, also can select respectively the larger several data subcarriers of power to be carried out to peak value neutralization by same idle sub-carrier, until peak-to-average force ratio meets setting demand, or not meet the data subcarrier of setting power condition.
In another embodiment, while supposing channel, variable period is longer, therefore channel time changes slower, therefore the pilot tone in data field does not need to carry out channel estimating, therefore the pilot tone for channel estimating can be the same with the idle sub-carrier of above-described embodiment, as the frequency domain auxiliary signal that reduces peak-to-average force ratio, process and previous embodiment are similar, seldom repeat.
Pass through the above embodiments, in the poor idle sub-carrier of signal to noise ratio, send reference signal as auxiliary signal or in the situation that not needing channel estimating using pilot signal as auxiliary signal, and adjust the phase place of auxiliary signal, maximum time-domain signal stack in the modulation signal that the reverse maximum of auxiliary signal and needs are sent, in and the method for modulation signal time domain power, reduce the peak-to-average force ratio of adjusting signal in ofdm system, the computation complexity of can demoting, improves signal treatment effeciency.
