Description

A kind of frequency deviation estimating method based on differential phase and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, particularly relate to a kind of MIMO-OFDM communication system and receive synchronously based on the frequency deviation estimating method of differential phase and device.
Background technology
For any digital communication system, be synchronously prerequisite and the important guarantee of reliable data transmission.The quality of net synchronization capability will directly affect the performance of whole communication system.But in a wireless communication system, due to the frequency difference between sending ending equipment and receiving device, and ustomer premises access equipment moves the impacts such as brought Doppler frequency-shift, makes to there is frequency deviation between the frequency of carrier frequency and local crystal oscillator.In order to ensure the transmitting of data, must carry out accurately estimating and being compensated to the frequency deviation of signal.In addition 3GPP(3rdGeneration Partnership Project, third generation partner program) LTE((Long TermEvolution, Long Term Evolution) descendingly have employed the higher OFDM(OrthogonalFrequency Division Multiplexing of the availability of frequency spectrum, orthogonal frequency division multiplexi) modulation technique, OFDM symbol is superposed by multiple sub-carrier signal to be formed, utilize the orthogonality between subcarrier to carry out demodulation at receiving terminal, the orthogonality thus between ofdm system sub-carrier proposes strict requirement.In actual transmissions, owing to not mating the frequency departure brought between Doppler frequency shift and transceiver local oscillator, the orthogonality between ofdm system subcarrier can be destroyed, cause inter-sub-carrier interference (ICI).Timing slip then can cause intersymbol interference (ISI), reduces the validity of Cyclic Prefix (CP).Therefore, synchronously very important for ofdm system.Around MIMO(multiple-input and multiple-output) frequency offset estimation technique under-OFDM or OFDM condition, expand a large amount of research work both at home and abroad, and achieved a lot of achievement in research, have the practical algorithm that can adopt in a large number, these achievements in research become the important leverage promoting and improve frequency deviation estimated performance.
Frequency synchronization method in ofdm system roughly can be divided into blind synchronized algorithm and synchronized algorithm two class based on training sequence.Blind synchronized algorithm mainly make use of Cyclic Prefix character specific to ofdm system to complete synchronous estimation.J.-J.van de Beek, M.Sandell, the people such as M.Isaksson document " MLestimation of Time and Frequency Offset in OFDM Systems; " IEEETrans.Commun., vol.43, propose a kind of maximum likelihood synchronized algorithm based on Cyclic Prefix in pp.761-766, August1997, this algorithm can go out timing slip and carrier frequency shift by Combined estimator.Ronghong Mo and Yong Huat Chew is at document " A New Blind Joint Timing andFrequency Offset Estimator for OFDM Systems Over Multipath FadingChannels, " IEEE Trans.Veh.Technol., vol.57, no.5, pp.2947-2957, the blind synchronization method of Combined estimator timing slip and carrier frequency shift under a kind of multidiameter fading channel is proposed in September2008, the time domain OFDM sampled point received is divided into the mutual incoherent several subset of sampling point by this algorithm, the advantage of this synchronizer is in high SNR(signal to noise ratio) there is reasonable performance in situation, but its shortcoming is that its performance in low SNR situation is not good.Wen Long Chin and Sau Gee Chen is at document " A Blind Synchronizer For OFDM Systems Based on SINR Maximization inMultipath Fading channels, " IEEE Trans.Veh.Technol., vol.58, no.2, pp.625-635, propose a kind of based on letter interference ratio (SINR) maximized blind synchronized algorithm in February2009, synchronous error introduces while ISI and ICI cause system loss, the SINR receiving data also declines thereupon, this algorithm utilizes this characteristic, by maximizing SINR metric Function Estimation timing offset and carrier frequency offset, emulation proves that this algorithm has good performance than traditional synchronized algorithm, but the shortcoming of this algorithm is that the implementation complexity of its algorithm is higher.
With blind synchronized algorithm unlike, based on training sequence synchronized algorithm need utilize insert known pilot symbols realize synchronously.T.M.Schmidl and Donald.C.Cox document " Robust Frequencyand Timing Synchronization for OFDM; " IEEE Trans.Commun., vol.45, no.12, pp.1613-1621, propose in December1997 and utilize first training symbol to realize Timing Synchronization and fraction frequency offset estimation, utilize the differential relationship of former and later two training sequences to realize integer-times frequency offset and estimate.But there is timing platform problem in this algorithm, have impact on net synchronization capability.P.H.Moose is at document " A technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing frequency offsetcorrection, " IEEE Trans.Commun., vol.42, pp.2908-2914, propose the identical OFDM symbol of transmission two in October1994 to estimate to simplify frequency deviation, but its frequency offset estimation range is smaller, in addition because frequency deviation estimates it is complete at frequency domain, so need FFT(Fast Fourier Transformation, fast Fourier transform) conversion realize estimate at frequency domain, so the implementation complexity of algorithm is higher.
Be widely used all kinds of training sequence in view of comprising in the practical communication system such as LTE standard, the frequency synchronization algorithm therefore around pilot aided often more has actual using value in actual applications.Under the precondition of receiving terminal known training sequence, the frequency deviation of maximum likelihood is estimated often to obtain better frequency deviation estimated performance, and becomes the emphasis of all kinds of research institute concern.Wu Yan, Samir Attallah and J.W.M.Bergmans gives the MIMO-OFDM system frequency deviation estimation technique scheme of a class based on adjustable quadrature training sequence in document " Efficient Training Sequence for Joint Carrier Frequency Offsetand Channel Estimation for MIMO-OFDM Systems, " Proc of IEEE ICC2007.The great advantage of this frequency excursion algorithm makes full use of Naoki Suhiro and Mitsutoshi Hatori at document " Modulatable Orthogonal Sequences and Their Application to SSAMSystems, " IEEE Trans.Information Theory, vol.34, no.1, pp.93-100, the orthogonal property of the adjustable orthogonal sequence proposed in January1988, by inserting two groups of identical training sequences in time domain, maximum likelihood frequency deviation estimation problem is reduced to the related operation problem of the two adjacent groups frequency pilot sign received, have and calculate simply, frequency deviation estimated performance is excellent, time domain training symbol PAPR(PeaktoAverage Power Ratio, papr) be the advantages such as constant.But the shortcoming of this algorithm is to estimate channel simultaneously, need to increase training sequence length.If number of transmit antennas is Nt, channel path number is L, and the training sequence length required for system is NtL, and in addition, system postulation inserts pilot tone in time domain, and it is inconsistent that the frequency domain that this and LTE standard suppose inserts pilot tone.
In order to effectively support the Combined estimator of frequency deviation under MIMO-OFDM or ofdm system condition and channel, Tao Cui and Chintha Tellambura is at document Joint Frequency Offset and ChannelEstimation for OFDM Systems Using Pilot Symbols and Virtual Carriers, IEEETrans.Wireless Commun., Vol.6, No.4, the Joint iteration proposed in 2007 based on decision-aided (Decision-Directed) frequency deviation of pilot tone and virtual subnet carrier wave, channel and data symbol is estimated and detection algorithm.S.Salari, M.Ardebilipour and M.Ahmadian is at document Jointmaximum-likelihood frequency offset and channel estimation for multiple-inputmultiple-output – orthogon frequency division multiplexing systems, IETCommun., 2008, vol.2, No.8, propose based on EM(Expectation-maximization algorithm in pp.1069-1076, EM algorithm) frequency deviation and channel joint estimation method, on the basis of channel and frequency deviation combined likelihood function, channel estimating is upgraded by E step, upgrade frequency deviation by M step to estimate.Although the frequency deviation of iteration and channel Combined estimator algorithm are associating frequency deviation under MIMO-OFDM system condition and channel estimating provide a kind of effective method, the iterative computation complexity involved by iterative computation structure still has influence on the computational efficiency of synchronized algorithm to a great extent.In order to avoid the computation complexity that iterative computation is introduced, Yao-Jen Liang and Jin-FuChang is at document Non-iterative Joint Frequency Offset and Channel Estimation forMIMO OFDM Systems Using Cascaded Orthogonal Pilots, IEEE Trans.VehTechn., vol.59, no.8, give a class in Oct.2010 and be applicable to MIMO-OFDM system based on the non-iterative frequency deviation of cascade orthogonal pilot frequency sequence and channel joint Estimation scheme, by making full use of " cascade is orthogonal " character of training sequence, the frequency deviation simplified under MIMO-OFDM system condition is estimated and channel estimating.
Under MIMO-OFDM system or ofdm system condition, frequency deviation is estimated or frequency deviation and channel Combined estimator, also has many patent of invention achievements both at home and abroad.The comprehensive analysis at present domestic and international frequency deviation around under MIMO-OFDM and ofdm system condition is estimated or the achievement of frequency deviation and the research of channel joint Estimation, on the basis of given frequency deviation and channel joint likelihood function, existing a large amount of practicable frequency deviation and channel estimation methods can for using for reference at present, and these frequency deviations and channel estimation method angularly propose solution feasible in a large number from pilot frequency sequence design, OFDM symbol specificity analysis and utilization, Pilot OFDM symbols design, concrete frequency excursion algorithm.Due to internal relation existing between frequency deviation and adjacent pilot symbols phase place, existing many patents give effectively based on frequency offset estimation technique and the method for differential phase.But carefully analyze these correlation techniques, we are also not difficult to find, also seldom there is the maximum likelihood frequency deviation estimating method based on differential phase around MIMO-OFDM system, particularly almost do not have around the maximum likelihood frequency deviation estimating method be similar to based on differential phase under the specific pilot frequency format condition of the communication systems such as LTE standard.

Corresponding (13) formula can be rewritten as:
ϵ ~ ( n ) = N · [ ave _ angle 1 ( n ) - ave _ angle 2 ( n ) ] 4 π L p - - - ( 15 )
Frequency deviation due to the overwhelming majority estimates that Output rusults is all similar to Gaussian distributed, can consider the dynamic fluctuation adopting smothing filtering, reduced frequency deviation estimation by time diversity further for this reason.Here we can adopt the smothing filtering improvement based on sliding window to estimate based on the maximum likelihood frequency deviation of differential phase equally, if sliding window length is P, then the final expression formula estimated based on the enhancing maximum likelihood frequency deviation of differential phase is

There is GHWHDHDWG on formula (6) both sides, and it is scalar, and namely it can directly about fall by both members.Then formula (6) can abbreviation be further:
e - j 2 πϵ L p N R 1 H R 2 = e j 2 πϵ L p N R 2 H R 1 - - - ( 7 )
Here it is emphasized that the revision measuring-signal of adjacent pilot symbols through obtaining such as formula the method process of (3), the maximum likelihood frequency deviation then using maximal possibility estimation theory to obtain on its basis again estimates that restriction relation and channel estimating have nothing to do! In fact, this just project team consider to adopt the method to revise the mainspring place of measuring-signal.Be not difficult to obtain by formula (7) closed solutions that following maximum likelihood frequency deviation estimates:

In order to improve frequency deviation estimated performance further, under the constant or slow conversion scene of frequency deviation, can consider to improve frequency deviation estimated performance to dependent phase in (9) formula after being averaged.Here can consider that adopting the average phase method based on sliding window to calculate upgrades phase value, if sliding window length is M, then corresponding average phase can calculate by the following method to be determined:
ave _ angle 1 ( n ) = 1 M Σ k = 0 M - 1 angle 1 ( n - k ) , ave _ angle 2 ( n ) = 1 M Σ k = 0 M - 1 angle 2 ( n - k ) - - - ( 11 )
Corresponding (9) formula can be rewritten as:
ϵ ~ ( n ) = N · [ ave _ angle 1 ( n ) - ave _ angle 2 ( n ) ] 4 π L p - - - ( 12 )
Frequency deviation due to the overwhelming majority estimates that Output rusults is all similar to Gaussian distributed, and we can be considered employing smothing filtering, be reduced the dynamic fluctuation of frequency deviation estimation by time diversity further for this reason.Here we can adopt the smothing filtering improvement based on sliding window to estimate based on the maximum likelihood frequency deviation of differential phase equally, if sliding window length is P, then the final expression formula estimated based on the enhancing maximum likelihood frequency deviation of differential phase is:
ϵ ‾ ML ( n ) = 1 P Σ i = 0 P - 1 ϵ ~ ( n - i ) N · Σ i = 0 P - 1 [ ave _ angle 1 ( n - i ) - ave _ angle 2 ( n - i ) ] 4 π L p P - - - ( 13 )
