Detailed description of the invention
For making the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearly, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the embodiments of the present invention are explained in detail.But, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that in each embodiment of the present invention, propose many ins and outs in order to make reader be more fully understood that the application.But, even without these ins and outs with based on the many variations of following embodiment and amendment, it is also possible to realize the application each claim technical scheme required for protection.
First embodiment of the present invention relates to a kind of channel estimation methods, and idiographic flow is as in figure 2 it is shown, comprise the steps of
Step 201, the maximum multipath delay spread of the some subframes before receiving terminal buffer memory present sub-frame, and segment length's mapping table of maximum multipath delay spread and correlation function section is set.For sake of convenience, by " the some subframes before present sub-frame " referred to as " before some subframes ".In the present embodiment, some subframes before of receiving terminal buffer memory preset number;Wherein, this preset number is the integer more than 1;And in the mapping table, span interval and correlation function segment length's one_to_one corresponding of maximum multipath delay spread, namely which span interval is maximum multipath delay spread fall into and be just mapped to the correlation function segment length of correspondence.
Step 202, receiving terminal extracts the signal of the pilot frequency locations of the community of reception from the time-frequency two-dimensional signal that present sub-frame receives, and utilizes the signal acquisition of this pilot frequency locations to compel null solution.Specifically, in this step, the signal of the pilot frequency locations in the community extracting reception be simultaneously generated the cell common pilots sequence identical with transmitting terminal, and utilize the signal of pilot frequency locations divided by this pilot frequency sequence, obtain and compel null solution.This step is prior art, does not repeat them here.
Step 203, receiving terminal, by carrying out Fourier transform according to the channel estimation sequence compeling null solution acquisition, estimates the maximum multipath delay spread corresponding to present sub-frame and doppler spread.Wherein, channel estimation sequence is channel impulse response.This step is prior art, does not repeat them here.
In this step, receiving terminal estimates doppler spread by pilot frequency sequence carries out the mode of conjugate multiplication acquisition phase contrast.Estimating Doppler expands to prior art, does not repeat them here.When practical application, receiving terminal can also pass through to compare the phase contrast of the channel impulse response of current time slots and default comparison time slot in present sub-frame and obtain doppler spread.
Step 204, receiving terminal obtains, based on doppler spread, the maximum multipath delay spread value of present sub-frame updated and goes forward side by side row cache.
Specifically, in this step, following sub-step is comprised:
Step 2041, receiving terminal determines a weight coefficient sequence according to doppler spread.Wherein, this weight coefficient sequence isK is weight coefficient, and T is the buffer storage length of the maximum multipath delay spread of some subframes before of institute's buffer memory, and each weight coefficient is corresponding to the maximum multipath delay spread of a subframe, k0The maximum multipath delay spread of corresponding present sub-frame, k1The maximum multipath delay spread of previous sub-frame of corresponding present sub-frame, by that analogy.And, this weighting sequence has the following characteristics that
First, this weight coefficient sequence is accumulative equal to 1, namely
Secondly, the k in this weight coefficient sequence0It is the monotonically increasing function of doppler spread, front T-1 coefficient kiIt it is the monotonic decreasing function of doppler spread.Namely for k0, by doppler spread Dopple(1)The k obtained0 (1)With by doppler spread Dopple(2)The k obtained0 (2)If, Dopple(1)>Dopple(2), then k0 (1)>k0 (2).For (kT-1,kT-2,...,k1) it is then contrary situation.
Step 2042, the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value weighting of some subframes before the weight coefficient sequence determined and present sub-frame and buffer memory is multiplied summation by receiving terminal, it is thus achieved that the result after weighted sum is gone forward side by side row cache as the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value of the present sub-frame of renewal.In this step, the mode of the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value of the present sub-frame of receiving terminal buffer update is: the maximum multipath delay spread of subframe before all preservations is moved rearwards by one, the maximum multipath delay spread of T subframe before is removed, the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value of the present sub-frame updated is moved into.
Generally speaking, in step 204, the lifting of channel estimating performance is shown two aspects: first, the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value of present sub-frame is no longer only dependent upon the situation of present sub-frame, but determined by present sub-frame and some subframe weightings before, therefore improve the order of accuarcy of estimation, decrease the impact due to burst noise, interference etc..Secondly, the weight coefficient adopted is relative and doppler spread is adaptive, doppler spread reflection is receiving terminal (i.e. mobile terminal, it is called for short " UE ") speed of movement velocity, mean that when doppler spread is bigger the movement velocity of UE is fast, the change of its multi-path environment also relatively acutely, therefore gives present sub-frame more weight in weight coefficient sequence;Otherwise, if doppler spread is less means that the movement velocity of UE is slow, the change of its multi-path environment is also relatively slower, the more weight of subframe before therefore giving in weight coefficient sequence.Adaptive weighting makes the estimation of maximum multipath have more robustness.
Step 205, receiving terminal determines the channel delay power spectrum of reality according to the maximum multipath delay spread of channel delay spectrum shape set in advance Yu renewal, and maps the correlation function determining channel impulse response.Wherein, channel delay spectrum shape set in advance can be following any one: rectangle, index shape or triangle, correspond respectively to rectangle spectrum, exponential spectrum and three angular spectrums.Correlation function is prior art to utilize maximum multipath delay spread to determine, does not repeat them here.
Channel estimation methods in present embodiment has adaptivity flexibly, the channel less for actual multi-path delay spread, correlation bandwidth is bigger, shortens the size of correlation matrix, saves computing and hardware consumption;The size of correlation matrix is added, thus obtaining bigger performance gain the channel relatively big for actual multi-path delay spread, correlation bandwidth is less.Owing to this adaptive algorithm is that the maximum multipath delay spread with actual channel matches, it is possible to obtain the better compromise of channel estimating performance and hardware complexity.
Step 206, receiving terminal intercepts the correlation function section of corresponding segment length according to mapping table and the maximum multipath delay spread after renewal, utilize the correlation function section intercepted to invert, and urgent null solution is carried out frequency domain LMMSE (linear minimum mean-squared error) filtering, it is thus achieved that channel estimating solution;Wherein, segment length's one_to_one corresponding of the correlation function section of the size of maximum multipath delay spread and intercepting.Specifically, maximum multipath delay spread is big, intercepts shorter correlation function section, otherwise maximum multipath delay spread is little, then intercept longer correlation function section.
In wireless communications, maximum multipath delay spread is with correlation bandwidth inversely, therefore the maximum multipath delay spread that basis estimates is adaptively adjusted the segment length of correlation function and can average out in channel estimating performance and hardware spending, when the correlation bandwidth of reality is less, it is possible to reduce unnecessary hardware spending.
Compared with prior art, it is based on doppler spread to estimate to carry out stabilization process to maximum multipath delay spread, decrease the impact due to burst noise, interference etc., the channel maximum multipath delay spread value making estimation is more accurate, thus improve the accuracy of channel estimating, improve receiver performance;And, intercept correlation function section based on maximum multipath delay spread adaptively, make channel estimation methods have adaptivity flexibly, it is possible to make channel estimating performance and hardware complexity be compromised.
Second embodiment of the present invention relates to a kind of channel estimation methods.Second embodiment and the first embodiment are roughly the same, and main distinction part is in that: in the first embodiment, and before receiving terminal buffer memory is multiple, the maximum multipath delay spread of some subframes, improves channel estimating performance.And in second embodiment of the invention, the receiving terminal only comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread value of buffer memory one, so, not only can improve the estimation performance of channel, and more save memory space.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, comprise step 301~306, wherein, step 302,303,305 to 306 respectively to the step 202 in the first embodiment, 203,205 similar to 206, do not repeat them here.Only difference is introduced below:
In step 301, receiving terminal is the comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread value of buffer memory one only.Wherein, this comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread value is the result of the maximum multipath delay spread value estimated by some subframes before comprehensive present sub-frame.Receiving terminal inner buffer comprehensive after present sub-frame maximum multipath delay spread estimated value, the information of some subframes before having contained, so, not only can improve the estimation performance of channel, and more save memory space.
Specifically, in this step, if buffer memory first, the then maximum multipath delay spread of several subframes of buffer memory, and utilize the maximum multipath delay spread of several subframes of weight coefficient sequence and buffer memory to be weighted summation, obtain described comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread value, then discharge the maximum multipath delay spread of several subframes of buffer memory;Wherein, weight coefficient sequence isOtherwise, the only maximum multipath delay spread of a subframe before buffer memory present sub-frame, wherein, weight coefficient sequence is (k1,k0), this sequence is determined by doppler spread.
In step 304, if not buffer memory first, weight coefficient sequence then only has two values, i.e. (k1,k0), wherein, k1Corresponding comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread.And the mode of the maximum multipath delay spread estimated value of the present sub-frame of receiving terminal buffer update is: the comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread of the subframe before originally preserved is deleted, and the maximum multipath delay spread of the present sub-frame after renewal is inserted (the comprehensive maximum multipath delay spread being called present sub-frame).
Due to UE inner buffer comprehensive after present sub-frame maximum multipath delay spread estimated value, the information of some subframes before having contained, therefore equally possible lifting channel estimating performance, but more save memory space.
The step of various methods divides above, is intended merely to description clear, it is achieved time can be merged into a step or some step is split, and is decomposed into multiple step, as long as comprising identical logical relation, all in the protection domain of this patent;To adding inessential amendment in algorithm or in flow process or introducing inessential design, but do not change the core design of its algorithm and flow process all in the protection domain of this patent.
