Description

Apparatus and method for receiver driving precoding
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to the radio communication of wireless communication field, more particularly to support precoding function.
Background technology
In autonomous networkses, it is known that two kinds of solutions are used to be reduced or avoided due to lacking cooperation and caused interference electricity It is flat.The solution that the first kind of resource allocation (resource allocation, RA) solution can be labeled as is intended to The algorithm for the resource radio blocks orthogonalise communications that design passes through smart allocation a so that if transmitter is in particular radio Data are sent in resource (for example, frequency, time slot, code), other transmitters just do not transmit number on identical radio resource According to.Such as TDMA and CSMA follow this method.The shortcomings that these methods is due to they inefficient of two reasons.The One, they waste radio resource in time domain and/or frequency domain.Second, they need a certain degree of same between transmitter Step.The solution of second of type assumes the noiseless high-throughput for having between linkup transmit device and/or all receivers Backhaul.By this solution, network can use the precoding and decoding optimal in theory for maximizing entire throughput Scheme.However, the actual limitation of this system is it will be apparent that because muting height is handled up between SC or WiFi access points The presence of amount backhaul is unlikely that.
In terms of precoding, two kinds of strategies can be distinguished.First strategy is based on a kind of precoding based on code book.At this In kind of method, precoder and the if necessary respective decoder at receiver by limited quantity the unoptimizable precalculated Each transmitter selection in pre-coding matrix, wherein these matrixes are all known at transmitters and receivers.In fact, When receiver receives pilot tone/training symbol from transmitter, it is estimated channel matrix and counted based on some modules Calculate the index corresponding to optimal precoder.However, first strategy does not have the potentiality made full use of using multiple antennas.The Two kinds of policy mandates receivers estimate channel, then as channel condition information (channel state Information, CSI) feed back to transmitter.Afterwards, transmitter designs a specific precoder using this CSI. The example of possible precoder is high specific combination (maximum ratio combining, MRC) precoding, wherein,ZF (zero-forcing, ZF) precoder, whereinAnd lowest mean square Error (minimum mean square error, MMSE) transmitter, wherein Wherein WnIt is the precoder that transmitter n is used,Carry out total CSI feedback of all receivers of free transmitter n services.Should Negative effect of the strategy for reducing intra-cell interference is effective, but the negative effect not to inter-cell interference is responsible.
In view of above-mentioned, many cordless communication networks are based on two examples:Multi-antenna, also referred to as multiple-input and multiple-output (multiple-input and multiple-output, MIMO) method and full rate reuse.The example of these examples can be with Found in WiFi or LTE cordless communication networks.MIMO has by mitigating the negative effect disturbed and declined to substantially improve The potentiality of the performance of cordless communication network, and full rate reuse makes frequency spectrum take maximization by cost of increased interference level. Centralized network provides many modes for realizing the target.
In the present context, the base station (BS) interfered or the complete CSI of processing transmitter can be by precoding/ripples Beam shaping manages multi-user interference, and the complete CSI is on the information for the channel for leading to the receiver not serviced or user.It is real On border, by using the special construction of MIMO precodings, base station or transmitter can mitigate more by using ZF precoders User disturbs.More effectively, base station, which can launch filtering using MMSE and add maximizing the signal interference at all receivers, makes an uproar Acoustic ratio (signal to interference plus noise ratio, SINR).
However, there is presently no the existing solution for cordless communication network, wherein both without cooperation between transmitter Also without coordination.The example of this cordless communication network is such as WiFi, cell (small-cells, SC), Femto cell (femto-cells, FC).
Fig. 1 shows the example of the de-centralized wireless communication system 100 with MIMO equipment.System 100 includes three Three base stations of the form of multiple antennas transmitter 101,102,103 and receiver 111,112,113.Transmitter 101,102, 103 be, for example, WiFi access points, and receiver 111,112,113 is, for example, such as tablet personal computer, laptop computer or intelligence electricity The handheld device of words.
First receiver 111 is serviced on the first downlink 121 by the first transmitter 101.Similarly, the second receiver 112 are serviced on the second downlink 124 by the second transmitter 102, and the 3rd receiver 113 is in the 3rd downlink 128 On serviced by the 3rd transmitter 103.In addition, even if the first receiver 111 not by second and the 3rd transmitter 102,103 services, There is respective channel 126,129 respectively between second and the receiver 111 of the 3rd transmitter 102,103 and the first.Similarly, Two receivers 112 are not by first and the 3rd transmitter 101,103 services, and the 3rd receiver 113 by the first and second hairs Device 101,102 is sent to service.However, from first and the 3rd transmitter 101, there is respective channel in the 103 to the second receiver 112 123,127, and respective channel 122,125 be present from the receiver 113 of the first and second transmitter the 101,102 to the 3rd.
When the first receiver 111 is serviced via downlink 121 by the first transmitter 101, by the first receiver 111 from Other second and the 3rd transmitter 102,103 channels 126,129 received cause interference at the first receiver 111.In Fig. 1 In, therefore these channels 126,129 are identified as interference channel.
Interference consumingly limits autonomous multi-user/multicell network (such as WiFi and cell) performance.On the one hand, The multiple antennas transmitter known has zero or mitigates the ability of negative effect of the interference to network performance, but cost is to concentrate Change.On the other hand, the interference in de-centralized cordless communication network is difficult to tackle, if transmitter is not coordinated with, more Add and be difficult to tackle.
