Description

Signal transmission device and method Technical Field
The present invention relates to wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a signal transmission apparatus and method.
Background
The wavelength range of signals in the frequency range of 30GHz to 300GHz is 10 mm to 1 mm, and is called "millimeter wave", communication using millimeter waves is called "millimeter wave communication", and a system using millimeter wave communication is called "millimeter wave system".
On the one hand, millimeter wave signals are very susceptible to rainfall compared to signals of conventional cellular networks operating in the microwave frequency band below 5 GHz. The influence of rainfall on the millimeter wave signal mainly comprises the following two aspects: absorption and scattering. First, rainfall will absorb the energy of the millimeter wave signal, making the large scale fading, which is very severe due to severe path loss, even more severe; secondly, the signal received by the receiving end is a signal obtained by superposing a plurality of signals from different propagation paths due to the scattering of the millimeter wave signal caused by rainfall.
In order to counter the influence of rainfall on the performance of receiving signals at a receiving end, in a scheme in the prior art, in the system design process, the influence of rainfall is summarized as the attenuation of millimeter wave signals when a link is designed, and when the maximum transmitting power is set, a rain attenuation factor is superposed on a normal large-scale fading factor, wherein the rain attenuation factor can be the attenuation factor of the rainfall with the maximum probability intensity for attenuating the millimeter wave signals.
On the other hand, considering that the path loss of the millimeter wave signal is very severe in the propagation process, and the path loss causes large-scale fading of the millimeter wave signal, in the millimeter wave system, a large number of antennas are usually configured at the transmitting end and the receiving end, and the large path loss is compensated by using the Beamforming (BF) gain of a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system.
Multipath transmission of signals caused by scattering of millimeter wave signals can cause the amplitude and phase of coefficients in a channel matrix to change, so that a precoding matrix corresponding to a subchannel capable of realizing the best channel quality changes. In the above scheme, the rain attenuation factor is only superimposed on the normal large-scale fading coefficient, and the original precoding matrix is still used for transmission, so that the expected power gain cannot be obtained.
In summary, in the existing millimeter wave system that uses the MIMO technology for data transmission, only the large path loss and the absorption of environmental factors such as rainfall, which are suffered by the millimeter wave signal during the transmission process, are considered to absorb the signal energy, and the influence of the environmental factors such as rainfall on the transmission precoding matrix is not considered, so that the system performance is not significantly improved.

Detailed Description
The embodiment of the invention provides a signal transmission device and a signal transmission method, which are applied to a millimeter wave system for data transmission in an MIMO mode and are used for considering the influence of environmental factors on a transmission precoding matrix when a transmitting end transmits signals and effectively improving the system performance.
In the signal transmitting device provided by the embodiment of the invention, a processing unit acquires environment information of an environment where a wireless channel between a transmitting end and a receiving end is located in the millimeter wave system; determining a transmitting pre-coding matrix V according to the acquired environment informationt(ii) a According to the determined transmitting pre-coding matrix VtAnd carrying out transmitted signal processing, and transmitting the millimeter wave signal obtained after the processing to a receiving end.
Wherein, according to the acquired environment information, a transmitting pre-coding matrix V is determinedtThe influence of environmental factors on the transmitting precoding matrix is considered, and the system performance can be effectively improved.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, the millimeter wave system 20 provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes a transmitting end 30 and a receiving end 40, where the transmitting end 30 transmits a millimeter wave signal to the receiving end 40, and data transmission is performed between the transmitting end 30 and the receiving end 40 in an MIMO mode.
The transmitting terminal 30 includes a signal transmitting device 10 therein, and the device 10 includes:
a processing unit 1001, configured to obtain environment information of an environment where a wireless channel between a transmitting end 30 and a receiving end 40 in the millimeter wave system 20 is located; determining a transmitting pre-coding matrix V according to the acquired environment informationt(ii) a According to the determined transmission precoding matrix VtProcessing the transmitting signal;
a transmitting unit 1002, configured to transmit the millimeter wave signal processed by the processing unit 1001 to the receiving end 40.
The processing unit 1001 may be a processor, and the transmitting unit 1002 may be a transmitter.
The receiving end 40 includes a signal receiving apparatus 11 therein, and the apparatus 11 includes:
a receiving unit 1101, configured to receive a millimeter wave signal transmitted by the transmitting end 30;
the processing unit 1102 is configured to demodulate the millimeter wave signal received by the receiving unit 1101, and obtain a demodulated signal.
The receiving unit 1101 may be a receiver, and the processing unit 1102 may be a processor.
The millimeter wave system 20 performs data transmission in an MIMO mode, the transmitting end 30 is configured with a plurality of transmitting antennas, and the receiving end 40 is configured with a plurality of receiving antennas. For example, if the millimeter wave system 20 is an NxM MIMO system, N transmitting antennas are arranged at the transmitting end 30, and M receiving antennas are arranged at the receiving end 40.
As described above, in order to compensate for large-scale fading, in the millimeter wave system, the transmitting end and the receiving end are configured with a large number of antennas, such as: in the millimeter wave system 20, N is 100.
Generally, in the MIMO system, antenna configuration parameters of a transmitting end and a receiving end are set in advance and stored in the transmitting end and the receiving end, respectively.
Let the channel matrix of the radio channel between the transmitting end 30 and the receiving end 40 be
The present invention will be described below by taking a rainfall environment as an exampleIn the embodiment, the processing unit 1002 determines the transmitting pre-coding matrix V according to the environment informationtThe multiplexing gain is obtained, and the performance of the millimeter wave system 20 is improved.
As described above, rainfall causes strong scattering of the millimeter wave signal, and the scattering reduces the correlation between the antennas at the transmitting end in the millimeter wave system 20 as the MIMO system and reduces the correlation between the antennas at the receiving end. The reduced correlation between the antennas will give millimeter-wave system 20 the opportunity to obtain multiplexing gain.
In a MIMO system, when there is strong correlation between antennas, under normal transmit SNR conditions (e.g., non-infinite SNR of 30dB or less), only Beamforming gain can be obtained, but multiplexing gain is difficult to obtain.
This is mainly because when the antennas are strongly correlated, for HHWhen H is subjected to eigenvalue decomposition, the eigenvalues except the maximum eigenvalue are all very small. And HHThe eigenvalues of H represent the channel quality of each subchannel in the channel, which means that no other subchannel except the subchannel for which the maximum eigenvalue corresponds is sufficient for signal transmissionHIndicating that conjugate transposing is performed.
Generally, when the quality difference of each sub-channel is very different, the optimal transmission mode is: the power is distributed to the sub-channels with good channel quality as much as possible, and the use of other sub-channels with poor channel quality for transmitting data is avoided as much as possible. In this case, better system performance can be obtained by using Beamforming transmission method to transmit data in the MIMO system.
Rainfall may be HHThe respective eigenvalues of H tend to be the same. Take a MIMO system of 51x51 with a frequency of 38GHz as an example, wherein 51x51 indicates that 51 transmitting antennas and 51 receiving antennas are configured. Referring to fig. 2, the abscissa represents the rainfall intensity, and represents a non-rainfall environment when the rainfall intensity is 0; the longitudinal axis is HH1 st, 2 nd, 11 th, 21 st, 31 st, 41 st, 51 st eigenvalue and trace of H. Wherein the feature values are arranged in descending order.
As can be seen from fig. 2: the trace and the 1 st characteristic value (i is 1) are gradually reduced along with the increase of rainfall intensity; while other characteristic values exhibit a unimodal characteristic, which first increases rapidly with increasing rainfall intensity, reaches a maximum at a certain rainfall intensity, and then decreases gradually with increasing rainfall intensity. However, it can be seen that, even when the rainfall intensity is 100 mm/h, all the other characteristic values except the 1 st characteristic value are larger than those in the non-rainfall environment. This shows that in a rainfall environment, there are more sub-channels potentially available for data transmission, which can compensate for large scale fading caused by rainfall by using the potential multiplexing gain without increasing the transmission power.
To demonstrate the above, fig. 3a and 3b show the channel capacity of the millimeter wave system at frequencies of 38GHz and 75GHz, respectively, under rainfall conditions, where the SNR is 0 dB. As can be seen from fig. 3a and 3b, under various MIMO configurations, the channel capacity of the rainy millimeter wave system exhibits a single-peak characteristic, and in a certain rainfall intensity range, for example: for a 26x26MIMO system with the frequency of 38GHz, the multiplexing gain is even larger than the large-scale fading caused by rainfall under the condition that the rainfall intensity R satisfies 0< R ≦ 20 mm/h, so that the multiplexing gain can be used for obtaining larger channel capacity than under the non-rainfall environment. The Channel capacity in fig. 3a and 3b is the maximum communication rate that can be obtained when the transmitting end acquires the Channel State Information (CSI) of all the subchannels.
The principle of obtaining the multiplexing gain under the rainfall condition in the embodiment of the present invention is explained above. Next, a specific scheme of the transmitting end 30 obtaining the multiplexing gain in the embodiment of the present invention is specifically described. The main idea of the scheme includes that the transmitting terminal 30 determines a transmitting pre-coding matrix according to the environment information, and performs transmitting signal processing according to the transmitting pre-coding matrix. Wherein, the transmitting pre-coding matrix is set according to the environment information, and the influence of the environment factors on the transmitting pre-coding matrix is considered.
Specifically, the processing unit 1001 may adopt, when acquiring the environment information, the following two ways including, but not limited to:
in the first mode, the processing unit 1001 measures the environmental parameters through a sensor built in or externally connected to the transmitting terminal 30 to obtain environmental information including environmental parameter values;
in a second mode, the processing unit 1001 may receive notification messages from other systems, such as: and receiving a notification message sent by a meteorological system, wherein the message carries environmental information.
In the rainfall environment, the environmental information may include rainfall intensity information, such as: the foregoing units are rainfall intensity in millimeters per hour; further, the environmental information may also include ambient temperature information.
Specifically, after acquiring the environment information, the processing unit 1001 determines the transmit correlation array according to the acquired environment information, and then determines the transmit precoding matrix V according to the determined transmit correlation arraytThen, according to the determined transmission precoding matrix VtProcessing the transmitting signal; or
After acquiring the environment information, the processing unit 1001 determines, according to the acquired environment information, an option of a transmission correlation array, and may also determine, according to pre-stored system configuration parameters, such as the number and spacing of antennas, the distance between the transmitting end 30 and the receiving end 40, a transmission correlation array, and then determine, according to the determined transmission correlation array, a transmission precoding matrix VtDistributing transmission power for each data stream contained in the millimeter wave signal, and then, according to the determined transmission precoding matrix VtAnd the power value of the transmission power distributed to each data stream is used for processing the transmission signal. Where the representation takes an expected value.
Specifically, the processing unit 1001 may determine the transmit correlation array according to the acquired environment information in the following manner
Taking a rainfall environment as an example, first, the processing unit 1001 may obtain an electromagnetic wave propagation parameter of the millimeter wave signal based on environmental information such as rainfall intensity, temperature, and the like and a working carrier frequency according to the Mie solution;
wherein the electromagnetic wave propagation parameter may comprise at least one of the following parameters:
absorption depth τa
Scattering depth τs
Optical depth τo
Anisotropy αp
The scheme of the processing unit 1001 for obtaining the above electromagnetic wave propagation parameters can refer to the description in the following references: an article "MATLAB function of Mie Scattering and Absorption" published by Christian Matzler at 2002, 8 months (accession No. 2002-11) (Christian Matzler, "MATLAB functions for Mie Scattering and Absorption," Research Report No.2002-11, Aug. 2002).
Then, the processing unit 1001 estimates the transmit correlation matrix by the following formula one:
… … formula one
Wherein λ represents the wavelength of the millimeter wave signal, η represents the Antenna gain at both ends of the transmitting end and the receiving end, and D represents the distance between the transmitting end and the receiving end, each element of ⊙ represents the Hadamard (Hadamard) product, which is a matrix related to the Antenna, for example, Uniform Linear Antenna Array (ULA), GtThe expression of the elements in the matrix is: wherein
After obtaining the transmit correlation matrix, the processing unit 1001 may determine the transmit precoding matrix V according to the transmit correlation matrixtAnd allocating transmission power to each data stream contained in the millimeter wave signal.
Specifically, the processing unit 1001 may perform eigenvalue decomposition on the transmit correlation array to obtain the following formula two:
… … formula two
The processing unit 1001 will apply the matrix VtAs a transmit precoding matrix, where VtEach column of (a) is used for transmit precoding one data stream;
processing unit 1001 according to diagonal matrix ΛtThe diagonal elements determine the power distribution coefficients for each data stream, and the obtained power distribution matrix P is a diagonal matrix, wherein the elements except the diagonal elements are all 0, and the diagonal elements are non-negative values.
Here, in the power allocation, an equal allocation method may be adopted, and the total power is equally allocated to all data streams. Alternatively, a method of power injection may be used, and a specific method of power injection may be referred to the related introduction in chapter 4 of Wireless Communications, edited by a. goldsmith (a. goldsmith, Wireless Communications, Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, u.s.a.2005), published by the University of Cambridge, New York, n.y.2005.
By adopting a power water filling algorithm, power can be preferentially distributed to the sub-channel with the best channel quality; then, if power remains, the sub-channel with the second best channel quality is allocated, and so on.
Finally, the processing unit 1001 determines the transmit precoding matrix V according totAnd determining the power distribution coefficient of each data stream contained in the millimeter wave signal, and processing the transmitted signal.
Specifically, the finally transmitted millimeter wave signal may be expressed as x ═ VtPS, where the data is actually transmitted.
The principle of obtaining the multiplexing gain under the rainfall condition and the specific scheme of obtaining the multiplexing gain by the transmitting terminal in the embodiment of the invention are introduced above.

Such as: in a rainfall environment, rainfall causes strong scattering of millimeter wave signals, and the scattering reduces correlation between transmitting-end antennas in a millimeter wave system as a MIMO system and reduces correlation between receiving-end antennas. The reduction in correlation between antennas will give the millimeter wave system an opportunity to gain multiplexing gain.
Rainfall may be HHThe characteristic values of H tend to be the same, and the number of potential sub-channels available for data transmission is increased, so that the potential multiplexing gain can be used for compensating the large-scale fading caused by rainfall on the premise of not increasing the transmission power.
If the rainfall intensity R meets the condition that R is more than 0 and less than or equal to 20 mm/h, the multiplexing gain is even larger than the large-scale fading caused by rainfall, so that the channel capacity larger than that in the non-rainfall environment can be obtained by utilizing the multiplexing gain.
