Embodiment
Under the networking scene of special subframe configuration 6 being configured with TDD standard, in order to avoid base station when carrying out antenna calibration, be subject to the interference of neighboring station downstream signal, thus it is abnormal to cause calibration factor to occur, in the embodiment of the present invention, propose solution, be specially: by calculating the noise power in calibration moment, thus judge whether to there is interference, and then the time-domain position of Dynamic Selection calibration hides interference.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the preferred embodiment of the present invention is described in detail.
In the embodiment of the present invention, for TDD-LTE base station, by measuring the grade determining current interference in real time, thus corresponding alignment time point (time-domain position namely calibrated) can be selected.
Consult shown in Fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present invention, being operated in TDD-LTE, to carry out the detailed process of antenna calibration as follows:
Step 300: interferometry is carried out within the scope of the first fixed time in current TD-LTE radio frames (hereinafter referred to as TDL frame) in base station, this first fixed time scope is the partial period in current TDL frame in special subframe.
In practical application, the base station of TDD-LTE standard all needs when each TDL frame starts to perform interferometry, to determine which time-domain position can perform calibration operation in each TDL frame, in the present embodiment, be only introduced for a TDL frame (i.e. above-mentioned current TDL frame).
Further, consult shown in Fig. 2, so-called special subframe, namely refer in a radio frames and contain descending pilot frequency time slot (Downlink Pilot Time Slot, DwPTS), protection time slot (Guard Period, GP), uplink pilot time slot (Uplink Pilot Time Slot, UpPTS) subframe, under normal circumstances, in TD-SCDMA system, during to each subframe numbering, special subframe is foreclosed, namely special subframe does not have subframe to number, and in TD-LTE system, under special subframe configuration 5 and special subframe configure 6 both of these cases, special subframe is numbered subframe 1.
Concrete, when performing step 300, the time point can will alignd with GP original position in multiple access TD-SCDMA radio frames (hereinafter referred to as TDS frame) in current TDL frame in base station, as the starting point of the first fixed time scope, by special time slot end time point in current TDL frame, as the end point of the first fixed time scope, then, within the first selected fixed time, interferometry is carried out.Specifically as shown in Figure 2; under the application scenarios of TDD-LTE system and TDD-SCDMA system common-mode; namely first fixed time scope refers to the 1450us-2000us that TDL frame head starts; the position limitation that usual base station performs calibration operation at this moment between in scope, otherwise the up-downgoing business of base station can be affected.
Step 310: base station, according to the interference measurement results obtained, filters out the candidate time section of interference signal intensity lower than pre-determined threshold within above-mentioned first fixed time, and alignment time point is selected in this candidate time section.
Concrete, base station can according to practical application request, interference is divided three classes, low interference, moderate interference and high interference, and in the embodiment of the present invention, namely above-mentioned pre-determined threshold refers to low interference threshold, only has when base station is according to interference measurement results, determines in some the candidate time section in the first fixed time scope, when neighboring station signal belongs to low interference to the interference that this base station is caused, alignment time point can be chosen in these candidate time sections.Preferably, for judging that the value of the pre-determined threshold of low interference can be set to 100dbm/180kHz.
Step 320: when the above-mentioned alignment time of base station in next TDL frame puts and arrive, perform calibration operation.
Base station is in current TDL frame after selected alignment time point, and this alignment time effective duration of point is a TDL frame, and so, in next TDL frame, when after the above-mentioned alignment time point of arrival, base station can start to perform antenna calibration operation.
Based on above-described embodiment, in the process performing step 210, after the candidate time section being in low disturbance state is picked out in base station within above-mentioned first fixed time, can adopt various ways in candidate time section, pick out alignment time point, specifically include but not limited to under type:
First kind of way is: if base station is determined self to adopt TDD special subframe configuration 5, then base station is when determining further to include the second fixed time scope in candidate time section, selected alignment time point within the second fixed time, wherein, base station using the time point that aligns with GP original position in TDS frame in the current TDL frame starting point as the second fixed time scope, using GP end time in current TDL frame o'clock end point as the second fixed time scope;
Concrete, consult shown in Fig. 2, when base station adopts TDD special subframe to configure 5, the time period of the 1450us-1857us from frame head can be chosen to be the second fixed time scope, wherein, 1450us is the time point alignd with GP original position in TDS frame in current TDL frame, and 1857us is GP end time point in current TDL frame.
Reason is as follows as the second fixed time scope why to choose in current TDL frame this time period of 1450us-1857us from frame head:
Consult shown in Fig. 2, under the interference of neighboring station is the prerequisite of low interference:
If neighboring station adopts TDS standard, then in this time period of 1450us-1857us, neighboring station is in GP respectively, UpPTS and descending sub frame, when neighboring station is operated in GP, because stagger in frequency from this base station (namely use different frequency ranges--industry default network criteria for planning), so interference can not be caused to base station, when neighboring station is operated in UpPTS, due to frequency staggering, so interference can not be caused to base station, when neighboring station is operated in descending sub frame, although be at transmission downstream signal, but because interference signal intensity is lower than the first threshold value, so also interference can not be caused to base station.
If neighboring station adopts TDL standard and adopt special subframe configuration 6; then in this time period of 1450us-1857us; neighboring station is in DwPTS and GP respectively, when neighboring station is operated in DwPTS, although be at transmission downstream signal; but because interference signal intensity is lower than the first threshold value; so also interference can not be caused to base station, when neighboring station is operated in GP, owing to not sending downstream signal; and have the guard time of propagation delay time, so interference can not be caused to base station.
The second way is: if base station is determined self to adopt TDD special subframe configuration 6, then base station is when determining further to include the 3rd fixed time scope in candidate time section, selected alignment time point within the 3rd fixed time, wherein, base station using the time point that aligns with sub-end position special in TDS frame in the current TDL frame starting point as the 3rd fixed time scope, using GP end time in current TDL frame o'clock end point as the 3rd fixed time scope.
Concrete, consult shown in Fig. 2, when base station adopts TDD special subframe to configure 6, the time period of the 1650us-1857us from frame head can be chosen to be the 3rd fixed time scope, wherein, 1650us is the time point alignd with special subframe end position in TDS frame in current TDL frame, and 1857us is GP end time point in current TDL frame.
Why to choose in current TDL frame from frame head this time period of 1650us-1857us as the 3rd fixed time scope, instead of adopt 1650us-1857us, consider under base station adopts the application scenarios of special subframe configuration 6, likely can there is delay phenomenon in neighboring station signal, in order to avoid deferred message impacts base station, therefore, the original position of the first fixed time scope is postponed 200us, further, select this time period of 1650us-1857us as the 3rd fixed time scope, reason is as follows:
Consult shown in Fig. 2, under the interference of neighboring station is the prerequisite of low interference:
If neighboring station adopts TDS standard, then in this time period of 1650us-1857us, neighboring station is in descending sub frame, when neighboring station is operated in descending sub frame, although be at transmission downstream signal, due to frequency staggering, and interference signal intensity is lower than the first threshold value, so also interference can not be caused to base station.
If neighboring station adopts TDL standard and adopt special subframe configuration 5, then in this time period of 1650us-1857us, neighboring station is in GP; when neighboring station is operated in GP; owing to not sending downstream signal, and there is the guard time of propagation delay time, so interference can not be caused to base station.
Based on above-described embodiment, further, if base station filters out interference signal intensity lower than after the candidate time section of pre-determined threshold within the first fixed time, TDD special subframe configuration 5 self is adopted if determine, and determine further in this candidate time section, not include above-mentioned second fixed time scope, or, TDD special subframe configuration 6 self is adopted if determine, and determine further in this candidate time section, not include above-mentioned 3rd fixed time scope, then after determining to include the 4th fixed time scope in this candidate time further, selected alignment time point within the 4th fixed time, wherein, so-called 4th fixed time scope refers to the time period in the first fixed time scope except the second fixed time scope and the 3rd fixed time scope.
Such as, consult shown in Fig. 2, when base station is determined self to have employed special subframe configuration 5, but the interference signal on this time period of the 1450us-1857us from TDL frame head is higher than pre-determined threshold (namely the second fixed time scope does not belong to candidate time section), then can judge that whether interference signal on this time period of 1857us-2000us that TDL frame head starts is higher than above-mentioned pre-determined threshold further, when determining that this time period of 1857us-2000us is in low disturbance state (the 4th fixed time scope belongs to candidate time section), therefrom selected alignment time point.
Again such as, consult shown in Fig. 2, when base station is determined self to have employed special subframe configuration 6, but the interference signal on this time period of the 1650us-1857us from TDL frame head is higher than pre-determined threshold (namely the 3rd fixed time scope does not belong to candidate time section), then can judge that whether interference signal on this time period of 1857us-2000us that TDL frame head starts is higher than above-mentioned pre-determined threshold further, when determining that this time period of 1857us-2000us is in low disturbance state (the 4th fixed time scope belongs to candidate time section), therefrom selected alignment time point.
Further, consult shown in Fig. 2, if the 4th fixed time scope is the 1857us-2000us from TDL frame head, then this time period is the UpPTS in TDL frame, in UpPTS, by convention, terminal needs to report detection reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal to base station, SRS) signal is to detect channel status, now, base station needs to indicate each terminal to reduce SRS signal transmission power within above-mentioned 4th fixed time, and reduces the SRS expectation received power of self.
Except above-mentioned various situation, further, if neighboring station causes moderate interference or high interference within the first fixed time, namely the candidate time section of interference signal intensity lower than pre-determined threshold cannot be filtered out within the scope of the first fixed time, so, the first fixed time section just can only be abandoned in base station, regular upstream subframe then after the first fixed time section selectes alignment time point, preferably, base station needs to select the regular upstream subframe not carrying Physical Random Access Channel (Physical Random Access Channel, PRACH) and SRS signal.
Such as, consult shown in Fig. 2, if base station does not filter out candidate time section within the first fixed time, then can select alignment time point in first the regular upstream subframe (i.e. subframe 2) after special subframe (i.e. subframe 1).
Further, if selected alignment time point in the sub-frame of uplink of base station in current TDL frame, then Physical Uplink Shared Channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel is not dispatched in base station on this sub-frame of uplink, PUSCH, also known as PUSCH Traffic Channel), specifically, namely be do not dispatch PUSCH Traffic Channel when arriving and including the sub-frame of uplink of selected calibration measurement point in next TDL frame, preferably, arriving in the N number of subframe before the above-mentioned sub-frame of uplink in next TDL frame, (N is setup parameter, value is positive integer, specifically depending on sub-frame configuration specification), Physical Uplink Control Channel (Physical Uplink Control Channel is not dispatched in base station yet, PUCCH, also known as PUCCH channel).This is because, in a radio frames, the instruction that the PUCCH channel that usual n-th subframe is dispatched sends is for dispatching PUSCH Traffic Channel in n-th+N number of subframe, therefore, if base station have selected alignment time point in n-th+N number of subframe, then can not dispatch PUCCH channel in the n-th subframe, accordingly, PUSCH Traffic Channel can not be dispatched in n-th+N number of subframe, like this, not service data transmission in n-th+N number of subframe that can ensure to have selected alignment time point, thus can not have an impact to calibration result.
In practical application, multiple community may be administered in base station, namely there is the community at multiple cobasis station, then base station will ensure in all communities of this locality administration, in the sub-frame of uplink of above-mentioned selected alignment time point, all do not dispatch PUSCH channel.Further, X2 interface can be adopted between base station and neighboring station to communicate, by X2 message informing operating state each other, so, in this case, base station needs on the above-mentioned sub-frame of uplink that have selected alignment time point, also not dispatch PUSCH channel by X2 interface notice neighboring station.
