Description

STBC (space time block coding) sending method, receiving method, transmitting end and receiving end
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a transmission method, a reception method, a transmitting end, and a receiving end for STBC coding.
Background
The Filter Bank Multi-carrier (FBMC) is a Multi-carrier modulation technique, and compared with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), FBMC has lower out-of-band radiation and higher spectral efficiency, and has a good application prospect. A typical implementation of FBMC is to use Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)/Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (OQAM) technology. This name is called because its implementation has strong similarity to OFDM. However, unlike OFDM/OQAM, which transmits pure real or pure imaginary OQAM symbols, the OFDM/OQAM uses the real-domain orthogonality of the prototype filter to achieve orthogonality of the transmitted signals in the frequency domain and the time domain. In addition, due to the good time-frequency local characteristic of the prototype filter, the OFDM/OQAM can achieve better transmission performance in a fading channel on the premise of not adding a Cyclic Prefix (CP), and compared with the OFDM, the throughput of the system is improved. In addition, OFDM/OQAM is also called FBMC/OQAM in some documents. In this context, FBMC, OFDM/OQAM and FBMC/OQAM represent the same meaning.
The multi-antenna transmission diversity technology can effectively resist channel fading and improve the reliability of a communication system. The Alamouti coding is a classic space-time coding scheme based on the transmit diversity, can effectively resist channel fading, and improves the reliability of a communication system. However, the FBMC has the problem that the time-frequency data block is long in time-domain tailing, which often causes huge time-domain overhead, so that the FBMC is difficult to be combined with Alamouti coding.
The prior art proposes a Block-Time Block Code (STBC) scheme, which is a mainstream idea of combining FBMC and Alamouti. The coding scheme of this scheme is shown in fig. 1. As shown in FIG. 1, cijAnd eijPure real or pure imaginary numbers, which represent the conjugate of a complex number. The time-frequency region marked with 0 is a guard interval, and effective data cannot be sent in the region and is used for mutual interference between adjacent data blocks. The length of the guard interval is determined by the length of the prototype filter tail. In the following description, each column of data in the data block in the above figure is referred to as an FBMC symbol, hereinafter referred to as a symbol. Although the space-time coding scheme of the data block enables the data obtained by the receiving end to have the characteristics of the Alamouti code, the guard interval between the data blocks causes a great time-frequency overhead.

All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method for transmitting STBC codes according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method as shown in fig. 2 may include:
in step S201, first, second, third, and fourth STBC code blocks are generated.
Alternatively, the transmitting end may generate the first, second, third and fourth STBC code blocks through the following two steps.
The method comprises the following steps: the transmitting end may obtain an STBC code block to be transmitted, where the STBC code block to be transmitted is a signal to be transmitted on a subcarrier by a transmitting antenna, where the STBC code block to be transmitted includes 2 × M × N data, and M and N are integers greater than 1.
In a specific implementation, when the number of data in the STBC code block to be transmitted is less than 2 × M × N, the data may be filled with 0. For specific implementation of obtaining an STBC code block to be sent, reference may be made to the prior art, and embodiments of the present invention are not limited herein. Preferably, the STBC code blocks are all pure real numbers or the STBC code blocks are all pure imaginary numbers. In the prior art, there may be multiple modulation schemes, such that all STBC code blocks to be transmitted are pure real numbers, or all STBC code blocks to be transmitted are pure imaginary numbers, for example, an OQAM modulation scheme, etc.
Step two: and the transmitting terminal generates the first, second, third and fourth STBC code blocks according to the STBC code block to be transmitted.
In a specific implementation, one STBC block is also referred to as one data matrix, since each STBC block is described below using a matrix. In the embodiment of the present invention, the STBC code block including 2 × M × N data may be regarded as one data processing unit, and the base station generates FBMC signals of the transmitting antennas one by one according to the size of the STBC code block. There are many different embodiments for generating the STBC code block, as long as each code block symbol received by the receiving end can satisfy Alamouti characteristics, and the specific embodiment may be defined by a protocol or determined by negotiation between the transmitting end and the receiving end. Two exemplary embodiments are given here:
the first method is as follows: the transmitting end may divide the STBC code block to be transmitted into a first sub-STBC code block and a second sub-STBC code block, where the first STBC code block is the first sub-STBC code block, or is obtained by multiplying the first sub-STBC code block by-1 at a first designated position, the third STBC code block is the second sub-STBC code block, or is obtained by multiplying the second sub-STBC code block by-1 at a second designated position, the second STBC code block is obtained by arranging the third STBC code block in a reverse order of columns, multiplying each column by-1, and taking complex conjugate, and the fourth STBC block is obtained by arranging the first STBC code block in a reverse order of columns and taking complex conjugate.
In a specific implementation, it is assumed that the first sub-STBC block is a data matrix 1 and the second sub-STBC block is a data matrix 2, which respectively include ai,jI is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M, j is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N and bk,lK is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M, l is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N, and the method is as follows:
data matrix 1:
Figure BDA0000834753000000071
data matrix 2:
Figure BDA0000834753000000081
at this time, the transmitting end may transmit data using M total number of subcarriers on the first antenna and the second antenna, and transmit 2N total number of data on 2N symbols on each subcarrier, that is, each subcarrier transmits one data per symbol, and each antenna needs to transmit two sets of data. From data matrix 1 and data matrix 2, the base station may determine a first data matrix, a second data matrix, a third data matrix, and a fourth data matrix. Wherein the first data matrix is equal to data matrix 1 or equal to data matrix 1 multiplied by-1 at a designated position, the third data matrix is equal to data matrix 2 or equal to data matrix 2 multiplied by-1 at another designated position, the second data matrix is equal to a data matrix obtained by arranging the third data matrix in reverse order of columns, multiplying-1 at each column and taking complex conjugate, and the fourth data matrix is equal to a data matrix obtained by arranging the first data matrix in reverse order of columns and taking complex conjugate. It should be noted that the specified locations may be the same location or different locations, either as dictated by protocol or as determined by transceiver negotiation.
Optionally, as an embodiment, specifically, there are:
the first data matrix is:

the third data matrix is:
Figure BDA0000834753000000084
the fourth data matrix is:
Figure BDA0000834753000000085
the second method comprises the following steps: the transmitting end may divide the STBC code block to be transmitted into a first sub-STBC code block and a second sub-STBC code block, where the first STBC code block is the first sub-STBC code block, or is obtained by multiplying the first sub-STBC code block by-1 at a first designated position, the third STBC code block is the second sub-STBC code block, or is obtained by multiplying the second sub-STBC code block by-1 at a second designated position, the second STBC code block is obtained by arranging the third STBC code block in a reverse order of columns, multiplying each column by-1, and taking a complex conjugate, and the fourth STBC block is obtained by arranging the first STBC code block in a reverse order of columns.
In a specific implementation, it is assumed that the first sub-STBC block is a data matrix 1 and the second sub-STBC block is a data matrix 2, which respectively include ai,j,1≤i≤M, 1. ltoreq. j. ltoreq.N and bk,lK is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M, l is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N, and the data matrix 1 and the data matrix 2 are specifically as shown above.
At this time, the base station may transmit data using M total number of subcarriers on the first antenna and the second antenna, respectively, and transmit 2N total number of data on 2N symbols per subcarrier, that is, each subcarrier transmits one data per symbol, and each antenna needs to transmit two sets of data. From data matrix 1 and data matrix 2, the base station may determine a first data matrix, a second data matrix, a third data matrix, and a fourth data matrix. Wherein the first data matrix is equal to data matrix 1 or equal to data matrix 1 multiplied by-1 at a designated position, the third data matrix is equal to data matrix 2 or equal to data matrix 2 multiplied by-1 at another designated position, the second data matrix is equal to a data matrix obtained by arranging the third data matrix in reverse order of columns and multiplying-1 at each column, and the fourth data matrix is equal to a data matrix obtained by arranging the first data matrix in reverse order of columns. It should be noted that the specified locations may be the same location or different locations, either as dictated by protocol or as determined by transceiver negotiation.
Optionally, as an embodiment, specifically, there are:
a first data matrix:

a second data matrix:

a third data matrix:
Figure BDA0000834753000000101
a fourth data matrix:
Figure BDA0000834753000000102
step S202 is to generate first, second, third, and fourth FBMC signals from the first, second, third, and fourth STBC code blocks, respectively, the FBMC signals including a tail.
Optionally, the transmitting end may map the first STBC code block on N consecutive symbols on M consecutive subcarriers of the first antenna, and process the first STBC code block in a preset processing manner to obtain the first FBMC signal, map the second STBC code block on N consecutive symbols on M consecutive subcarriers adjacent to the first STBC code block in the time domain and having the same frequency domain position in the first antenna, and process the second FBMC signal in the preset processing manner to obtain the third STBC code block, map the third STBC code block on the same time-frequency position as the first STBC code block in the second antenna, and process the third FBMC signal in the preset processing manner to obtain the fourth FBMC signal, map the fourth STBC code block on the same time-frequency position as the second STBC code block in the second antenna, and process the fourth FBMC signal in the preset processing manner to obtain the fourth FBMC signal.
The preset processing manner may adopt any prior art, and specifically refer to an extended IFFT method or a polyphase filter bank method in the prior art, as shown in fig. 3 and fig. 4.
At this time, the FBMC signal generated by each STBC block is, as shown in fig. 5, a signal with a period of smooth decline on both sides of the signal, that is, the above-mentioned tail signal, which is naturally generated in the filtering process, and the length thereof is related to the length of the filter. If the tail signal is not processed, the tail will cause a significant overhead when performing multi-antenna transmit diversity.
Step S203, respectively performing trailing truncation on the first and third FBMC signals, and respectively performing leading truncation on the second and fourth FBMC signals.
There are many alternative embodiments of the tail puncturing operation, as long as the puncturing operation can generate less Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI)/Inter-symbol Interference (ISI). Although the two data blocks are only required to be truncated after the first and third FBMC signals and truncated before the second and fourth FBMC signals when performing transmit diversity, the situation that the truncation operation is required to be performed on both the front and rear tails of each FBMC signal when performing transmit diversity on a plurality of FBMC data blocks in time domain and other reasons is not excluded. And truncating only one tail may be seen as a special case of truncating both sides, depending on the setting of the respective truncation parameter and the design of the respective truncation window function.
For the purpose of describing the truncating operation, the tail length is explained here by way of an example. Assuming that the sub-carrier spacing of the FBMC signal is F and the overlap coefficient of the prototype filter is K, N OFDM/OQAM symbols are included in the signal transmission block of one FBMC (the signal generated by the above-mentioned one STBC code block). The length of the FBMC signal will be

Wherein, of the centre
Figure BDA0000834753000000112
The length being the main part of the signal and each of the two sides
Figure BDA0000834753000000113
The signals within the time length are respectively the front tail and the back tail of the signal. For the convenience of the following description, an FBMC signal without any tail truncation operation is referred to as an original FBMC signal, and the original FBMC signal is divided into three parts: the signal body portion, the original front tail and the original back tail are located as shown in fig. 6, and the signal body portion contains the main energy in the original FBMC signal. The start time and the end time of the signal body portion correspond to the end time of the leading tail and the start time of the trailing tail, respectively.
In an alternative embodiment, the transmitting end may truncate the FBMC signal by a window function. Specifically, the transmitting end may generate a first window function, a second window function, a third window function, and a fourth window function for performing a tail truncation operation on the first FBMC signal, the second FBMC signal, the third FBMC signal, and the fourth FBMC signal, and perform the tail truncation operation on the first FBMC signal, the second FBMC signal, the third FBMC signal, and the fourth FBMC signal through the first window function, the second window function, the third window function, and the fourth window function, respectively. The length of the window function is consistent with that of the original FBMC signal, and the value of the window function is between 0 and 1. The window function is 1 in the signal body part, or in the signal body part and a part of the original front tail and the original back tail adjacent to the signal body part, the left end and the right end of the window function are 0, and the lengths of 0 intervals at the two ends can be different, depending on the specific design. The schematic diagram of the window function in the signal main part 1 and the rest 0 can be as shown in fig. 6; the graph of the window function with 1 in the signal body part and a part adjacent to the signal body part and 0 in the rest can be shown in fig. 7. The transition part is arranged between the part with the window function value of 0 and the part with the window function value of 1, and the length and the value of the transition part depend on specific requirements and designs.
In the specific implementation, the transmitting end multiplies the designed window function by the FBMC original signal correspondingly. The signal corresponding to the position with the window function value of 0 is cut off, the value of the FBMC signal corresponding to the position with the window function value of 1 is unchanged, and the signal corresponding to the position of the transition part is smoothly cut off. The window function may be illustrated in fig. 8 when the main portion of the signal is 1 and the remaining portion is 0. The effect of the truncating operation is: keeping the main body part of the original FBMC signal or the main body part and a part of the original front tail and/or the original back tail adjacent to the main body part unchanged, smoothly cutting the tail part adjacent to the main body, and directly cutting off the tail at the two extreme sides. So long as the operation that satisfies this effect can be considered an implementation of the truncating operation.
In another alternative embodiment, the transmitting end may implement the tail truncation operation by: the embodiment of the invention reasonably designs the window function for truncation according to the ICI and ISI which can be borne by the system, and can obtain better truncation effect under the condition of smaller ICI/ISI.
The method comprises the following steps: the first and third FBMC signals may be subjected to trailing clipping to obtain first and third trailing signals, respectively, and the second and fourth FBMC signals may be subjected to leading clipping to obtain second and fourth trailing signals, respectively. Specifically, assume that the original FBMC signal is s (T), T is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to T, and assume that T is0Is the end time of the leading and trailing, t1Is the start time of the trailing tail. Then front after cuttingTrailing signal x0(t), trailing tail signal x1(t) are respectively:
Figure BDA0000834753000000121
Figure BDA0000834753000000122
it should be noted that, although the first and third FBMC signals are truncated and the second and fourth FBMC signals are truncated, the complete tail as described above may be theoretically truncated for subsequent processing, but in actual operation, the complete tail may not be completely extracted. This is because the tail-cancellation signal is not ideally constructed in the following steps, and therefore, the signal actually has a certain damage, and the amount of data used for the tail-cancellation signal is reduced, so that the damage to the signal by the subsequent tail suppression operation can be reduced.
In yet another alternative embodiment, the transmitting end may intercept the trailing edges of the first and third FBMC signals directly and intercept the leading edges of the second and fourth FBMC signals directly. The specific interception is not limiting of the present invention.
Step two: and processing the first, second, third and fourth tail signals through an analysis filter bank respectively to obtain first, second, third and fourth frequency domain tail offset signals. Specifically, the intercepted tail signal may be processed by an analysis filter bank of the receiver, so as to obtain a tail cancellation signal a in the frequency domain (i.e. the tail cancellation signal in the frequency domain), where a is a matrix, and a line p and a column q of the element a (p, q) in the line p of the matrix are as follows:
Figure BDA0000834753000000131
wherein the content of the first and second substances,
Figure BDA0000834753000000132
for the operation of the real part, g (t) is the transmitting end of the OFDM-OQAM systemThe prototype filter is used, wherein M is the number of subcarriers, p represents the p-th subcarrier, q represents the q-th real number symbol, the row of the matrix A represents the frequency domain, and the column represents time;
the above formula is a mathematical description of the analysis filter bank, and in practical implementation, any one of the prior art techniques may be used for the analysis filter bank processing, such as the extended FFT method and the polyphase filter bank method shown in fig. 9 and 10, respectively.
Step three: and respectively constructing a first tail cancellation signal, a second tail cancellation signal, a third tail cancellation signal and a fourth tail cancellation signal through the first frequency domain tail cancellation signal, the second frequency domain tail cancellation signal, the third frequency domain tail cancellation signal and the fourth frequency domain tail cancellation signal. Specifically, as described above, N OFDM/OQAM symbols are included in one signal transmission slot, and it is assumed that the set of subcarrier numbers to which data is mapped in these symbols is L. For the front and tail, only elements which belong to the set L and are listed in the front 2K-1 range are reserved in the data A after analysis and filtering, and other elements are set to be zero; and for trailing, only elements which belong to the set L and are listed in the range of the last 2K-1 in the data A after analysis and filtering are reserved, and other elements are set to be zero. The result obtained is denoted matrix B, whose elements B (p, q) are as follows:
front tailing:

and (3) rear tailing:
Figure BDA0000834753000000134
the data is used to synthesize an FBMC signal (i.e., the tail cancellation signal) y (t) via the FBMC transmitter
Figure BDA0000834753000000135
Step four: and subtracting the first, second, third and fourth tail counteracting signals from the first, second, third and fourth FBMC signals respectively to obtain the first, second, third and fourth FBMC signals after tail counteracting. Specifically, s (t) and y (t) are subtracted from each other to obtain c (t) (i.e., the above-mentioned tail-cancelled FBMC signal), and c (t) s (t) -y (t).
Further, since the tail-cancelled signal is often not exactly the same as the original tail signal, c (t) will still contain a residual tail signal. Optionally, if the trailing amplitude or power of c (t) reaches the preset threshold, the transmitting end may return to execute step one in the optional embodiment, and replace the FBMC signal in step one with c (t), that is, repeat steps one to four until the trailing amplitude of c (t) is lower than the preset threshold.
Still further, the tail truncating operation may further include:
and fifthly, carrying out tailing truncation operation on the first, second, third and fourth FBMC signals after tailing cancellation. Specifically, the transmitting end may cancel the first and third FBMC signals t after tail cancellation1Directly removing the trailing part later, and canceling the trailing part0The previous tail is removed directly or a window function is used to truncate the first, second, third and fourth FBMC signals after tail cancellation. It will be appreciated that the foregoing direct removal of the tail can be viewed as a special case where the window function is rectangular.
Step S204 is to overlap and add the trailing edge of the first FBMC signal and the trailing edge of the second FBMC signal, map the resulting signals onto a first antenna, overlap and add the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal and the trailing edge of the fourth FBMC signal, and map the resulting signals onto a second antenna.
Specifically, for the first, second, third, and fourth FBMC signals after tail truncation, the trailing and leading edges of the first FBMC signal and the second FBMC signal are overlapped and added, and mapped on antenna 1 for transmission, and the trailing and leading edges of the third FBMC signal and the fourth FBMC signal are overlapped and added, and mapped on antenna 2 for transmission, where a schematic diagram of signal overlap and addition is shown in fig. 11.
In a specific implementation, a transmitting end firstly determines the length T of the overlapped FBMC signals0The length can be predetermined or determined by signaling interactive negotiation between the transmitting end and the receiving end, and the ICI/ISI level that the system can bear is an important factor for determining the length; according to the overlapping length T0The trailing edge of the truncated first FBMC signal and the leading edge of the second FBMC signal are overlapped and added, and the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal and the leading edge of the fourth FBMC signal are overlapped and added. Specifically, if discrete time sampling of the signal is used for description, the first (third) FBMC signal is a after the tail truncation is set0,a1,...aN-L,aN-L+1,...,aN-1The second (fourth) FBMC signal is b0,b1,...,bL-1,bL,...,bM-1Where M, N, L are positive integers, M, N are the number of discrete sampling points of the FBMC signal pair, and L is the overlap length T0The corresponding number of discrete sampling points. Signal s obtained by overlap-addT=[a0,a1,...,aN-L-1,aN-L+b0,aN-L+1+b1,...,aN-1+bL-1,bL,...,bM-1](ii) a The result of the overlap-add of the first and second FBMC signals is mapped to antenna one and transmitted, and the structure of the overlap-add of the third and fourth FBMC signals is mapped to antenna two and transmitted.
In an alternative embodiment, the length T of the overlap-add0Equal to the length of the tail portion remaining after the tail truncation operation. That is, the sum of the overlap of the trailing edge of the first FBMC signal and the leading edge of the second FBMC signal has a length equal to the length of the trailing edge of the first FBMC signal or the leading edge of the second FBMC signal, and the lengths of the trailing edge of the first FBMC signal and the leading edge of the second FBMC signal are equal; the sum of the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal and the leading edge of the fourth FBMC signal is equal to the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal or the leading edge of the fourth FBMC signal, and the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal and the leading edge of the fourth FBMC signal are equal.
In another alternative embodiment, the signals are in fixed frames in some systemsThe structure is transmitted and the length of the frame is typically an integer multiple of the length of the symbol. Thus, the length of overlap-addT0The total length of the overlapped signals is equal to an integral multiple of the length of the FBMC symbol. That is, the total length of the signal after overlap-add of the trailing edge of the first FBMC signal and the leading edge of the second FBMC signal is equal to an integer number of FBMC symbol lengths; the total length of the signal after overlap-add of the trailing edge of the third FBMC signal and the leading edge of the fourth FBMC signal is equal to an integer number of FBMC symbol lengths.

The front trailing length and the rear trailing length can be agreed in advance, and the transmitter and the receiver can be agreed in advance; or the transmitting end and the receiving end may negotiate and determine through signaling interaction, which is not limited in the present invention.
Step S123, adding several zeros in the front end of the FBMC signal, and adding several zeros in the back end of the FBMC signal, wherein the zeros are the same as the front tail length. The length of the tail can be represented by the number of the sampling points, so that the same number of zeros refers to the same number of zeros as the number of the sampling points of the tail length. Specifically, after acquiring the FBMC signal and the tail length, the transmitting end may complement a front end of the FBMC signal with a plurality of zeros having the same length as the front tail length, and complement a rear end of the FBMC signal with a plurality of zeros having the same length as the rear tail length, so that the received FBMC signal has an Alamouti code characteristic.
And step S124, carrying out Alamouti combination processing on the FBMC signals after tailing processing. Specifically, the FBMC signal processing after zero padding is the same as that of a general FBMC receiver, and the received time domain FBMC signal is changed into a frequency domain, and since the STBC code at the transmitting end meets the Alamouti characteristic, the subsequent processing is performed as in the case of the general Alamouti combination, and then demodulation and decoding are performed, which is not described herein again.
