Description

The time offset estimation method and system of wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of time offset estimation method more particularly to a kind of wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channels Time offset estimation method, and be related to using the wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel time offset estimation method when Inclined estimating system.
Background technique
Orthogonal frequency division multiplex OFDM technology is since its availability of frequency spectrum is high, anti-multipath fading ability is strong, transmits the spies such as reliable Point has become transmission technology most competitive in mobile communication system.OFDM is modulated using orthogonal sub-carriers, to load The orthogonality of wave is more sensitive, once orthogonality is destroyed, just will form self-interference, performance degradation.And sign synchronization Error will cause intersymbol interference, destroy the orthogonality of subcarrier, larger to systematic influence, therefore accurate sign synchronization is very It is important.
Current existing timing synchronization algorithm is broadly divided into two classes, i.e. data auxiliary (DA) algorithm or non-data is auxiliary Help (NDA) algorithm (i.e. blind estimate).DA algorithm can be further divided into two kinds again, first is that the method based on training symbol sequence, Second is that the method based on insertion frequency pilot sign, but these methods can all reduce data rate, under the availability of frequency spectrum for leading to system Drop.NDA algorithm utilizes the structure of OFDM symbol, is such as estimated based on virtual subcarrier and cyclic prefix.It is carried based on virtual subnet The blind estimate of wave, it is computationally intensive using characteristics of needs value diversity when Subspace algorithm, it realizes more complex;Based on cyclic prefix For maximum likelihood (ML) algorithm vulnerable to data, the precision of the influence of noise and channel, algorithm is not high.
NB-IOT (NarrowBand Internet of Things, narrowband IOT) is a kind of based on cellular narrowband Internet of Things Network technology supports low power consuming devices to connect in the cellular data of wide area network.NB-IOT be mainly used in poor throughput, can tolerate compared with The scene of long time delay and Hypomobility, such as intelligent electric meter, remote sensor and intelligent building.NB-IOT can be deployed directly into existing In GSM or LTE network, i.e., smooth upgrade is realized to reduce lower deployment cost in the existing base station of reusable.
NB-IOT uplink defines narrowband physical layer Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH) and narrowband physical layer connects at random Enter channel (NPRACH).Present patent application is mainly concerned with the timing synchronization of NPUSCH channel.It is narrow in NB-IOT system It is mainly used to the data information and control information of transmission terminal with Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH).NB-IOT system it is upper Row transmitted bandwidth is 180kHz, and uplink supports that 3.75kHz and 15kHz subcarrier spacing, multi-access mode are single carrier simultaneously Frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA);List carrier wave is only supported to dispatch using the subcarrier spacing of 3.75kHz, and between the subcarrier of 15kHz Every the scheduling for supporting list carrier wave and multi-subcarrier simultaneously.For the subcarrier spacing for being more preferably adapted to 3.75kHz, protocol definition is new Length be 2ms narrowband structure of time slot.Shown in following Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, a radio frames include 5 narrowband time slots, each narrowband Time slot includes 7 orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols.
Wherein, the running time-frequency resource grid of a time slot in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 (includesA subcarrier andA SC- FDMA symbol).For Δ f=15kHz, the time-gap number of a radio frames is ns∈ { 0,1 ..., 19 }, For Δ f=3.75kHz, ns∈ { 0,1 ..., 4 },
NB-IOT uplink introduces the concept of resource unit, the scheduling of upstream data and the transmission of HARQ-ACK information It is all as unit of resource unit.One resource unit is defined as in time domainA continuous SC-FDMA symbol and frequency In domainA continuous subcarrier, whereinWithIt is as shown in the table:
The resource unit and timeslot number that NPUSCH different-format includes

For multi-tone NPUSCH, when using 3 subcarriers, the span of RU in the time domain is 4ms;Make When with 6 subcarriers, the span of RU in the time domain is 2ms;When using 12 subcarriers, the span of RU in the time domain is 1ms。
For NPUSCH format 2, if RU is in time domain using a single 3.75kHz subcarrier On span be 8ms, if using a single 15kHz subcarrier, the span of RU in the time domain be 2ms.
In NB-IOT system, for NPUSCH Format 1, there are one lead each time slot of Physical Uplink Shared Channel Frequency sequence, i.e. narrowband demodulation reference signal (NDMRS, Narrow Demodulation Reference Signal).It is wherein every Two adjacent NDMRS Transmission Time Intervals having the same (being separated by 7 OFDM symbols).Reference signal NDMRS is mainly used for The channel estimation of Physical Uplink Shared Channel and time, Frequency Synchronization.
When production test, wired connection is generallyd use, DUT is connected to wireless comprehensive test instrument.DUT and wireless comprehensive test instrument It is two independent systems, therefore the processing time of the forward delay interval of signal and ADC can all cause the time migration of symbol, such as Fruit directly demodulates signal, will cause intersymbol interference, influences the orthogonality of subcarrier.It therefore must before signal processing It must carry out accurate timing synchronization.
Consider that baseband signal is carried out up-conversion by carrier modulation, then connect by an ofdm communication system, transmitter Receipts machine carries out signal by using identical local carrier to be down-converted to base band.IFFT and FFT be respectively transmitter modulation and The basic function of receiver demodulation.In order to carry out the FFT of N point in receiver, need to obtain within the OFDM symbol period to transmitting The accurate sampling of signal.In other words, in order to detect the starting point of each (after removing CP) OFDM symbol, it is necessary to execute symbol Timing Synchronization facilitates to obtain accurate sampling in this way.Assuming that there are the time migrations of δ size in time domain, then it is in sample rate FsIn the case where, then there can be τ sampled point offset THS=δ Fs

Specific embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawing, preferably embodiment of the invention is described in further detail.
This example first explains term: NB-IOT (Narrow Band Internet of Things) is narrowband Internet of Things Net;NPUSCH (Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel) is narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel; OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is orthogonal frequency division multiplexing;DA(Data Aided) For data auxiliary;NDA (Non Data Aided) is unbound nucleus;ML (Maximum Likelihood) estimates for maximum likelihood Meter;GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) is global system for mobile communications;LTE(Long Term Evolution) it is long term evolution;SC-FDMA(Single-carrier Frequency-Division Multiple It Access) is single-carrier frequency division multiple access.
Assuming that there is only the timing error of τ size, not any phase noises between transmitter and receiver.Then time domain Receiving signal can indicate are as follows:Wherein n=1,2 ... N adopts for time domain The serial number of sampling point, k=1,2 ..., N are subcarrier in frequency domain serial number, and N is the number of sampling, and H [k] is that the frequency domain of each subcarrier is believed Road parameter, X [k] are the frequency domain data sent, and z [n] is the channel Gaussian noise of time domain.NPUSCH letter based on NB-IOT system The format in road, the time offset estimation technology generally used have time offset estimation based on cyclic prefix (CP) and based on training sequence when Estimation partially.
Time domain STO estimation technique based on cyclic prefix is analyzed as shown in figure 4, CP (cyclic prefix) is one in OFDM symbol The copy of partial data.This means that CP (cyclic prefix) and corresponding data portion is identical.And this something in common It can be used for the estimation to STO.As shown in figure 4, B and B ' respectively indicates the N of CPGThe N of a sampling and data portionGA sampling.Note Meaning, B is identical with two sampling blocks in B ', and two sampling blocks are separated by NsubA sampling.Consider two sliding window W1 and W2.Its spacing distance is NsubA sampling.It may search for sampling direct similarity in two windows by sliding window W1 and W2.When The N when CP of OFDM symbol is fallen in W1, in two windowsGA direct similarity of sampling block reaches maximum.Most it is worth using this Point can identify STO.When the difference in W1 and W2 between two sampling blocks is minimum, the similarity of the two blocks reaches maximum.Institute To be made by search (by N in two windowsGWhat a sampling was constituted) differences of two blocks be minimized where point, it will be able to estimate Count out STO:
Although this technically simple, when, there are when CFO, performance can decline in reception system.
Another Symbol Timing estimation based on training sequence is baseband receiving signals and the local after utilizing down coversion The NDMRS sequence of storage does sliding computing cross-correlation, and the position of correlation peak is used to determine the timing synchronization position of system.
Estimated accuracy based on cyclic prefix algorithm is related with the length of cyclic prefix CP, and cyclic prefix CP length is longer to be estimated It is higher to count precision.Symbol Timing estimation based on cyclic prefix can be very good the variation of adaptive channel, but cyclic prefix holds Vulnerable to the influence of intersymbol interference, the accuracy decline of estimation is caused.Due to the circulation of the SC-FDMA symbol of NPUSCH channel Prefix is relatively short, wherein also needing to exclude due to the influence such as adding window and non-serviceable length, uses cyclic prefix It is not high to carry out Symbol Timing estimated accuracy.In practical cellular communication, generally when UE random access with regard to having carried out The time delay estimation of whole system, then UE will do it when sending signal sending time and adjust, and guarantee that base station receives NPUSCH signal within CP.But under the non-signaling test pattern of comprehensive test instrument, do not carry out that UE is synchronous and random access this A little processes, but it is synchronous to need accurately to carry out time migration again.
In this case, this example is (narrow for can disposably obtain the complete NPUSCH of a packet under wireless comprehensive test mode Band Physical Uplink Shared Channel) data, the sequential extraction procedures of the NDMRS signal (narrowband demodulation reference signal) in data are come out, Then it is grouped, then two groups of NDMRS signals (narrowband demodulation reference signal) is subjected to Symbol Timing estimation, so that it may obtain more Good Symbol Timing estimates performance, and has certain anti-frequency deviation effect.
Therefore, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 7, this example provide a kind of wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel when it is inclined Estimation method, comprising the following steps:
Step S1 carries out the first time offset estimation to the data for the narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel that acquisition receives, to obtain The first start bit of access evidence is set;
Step S2 extracts the two-part narrowband demodulation reference signal time domain data in front and back, obtains the first time domain data and the Two time domain datas;
Step S3 calculates first time domain data at current time and the correlation of the second time domain data;
Step S4 judges whether maximum related value is greater than preset threshold value according to the correlation, until maximal correlation Value is greater than preset threshold value, then reaffirms the second initial position of data.
Include following sub-step in step S1 described in this example:
Step S101 obtains the data of the narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel received;
Step S102 carries out the first time offset estimation by double sliding window power detection, and the first start bit for obtaining data is set. The first start bit is set to thick initial position, and second initial position is fine initial position.
More specifically, NPUSCH channel includes NDMRS sequence, and this example uses power window detection to obtain signal first Coarse timing synchronization, i.e., the first time offset estimation of the described step S102, to obtain rough initial position, the step is using existing Double sliding window power detection can be realized;Then all NDMRS sequences for extracting NPUSCH signal carry out the thin fixed of subsequent step When synchronous (more accurate time offset estimation).
Assuming that the NPUSCH signal for receiving packet burst is r (t), 0≤t < Tp, wherein TpFor this packet signal it is total when It is long.Down coversion is carried out to the signal received, the digital baseband signal after the processing such as ADC sampling is r (n), 0≤n < Np, Middle NpIt always counts for baseband digital signal to be processed.
Thick time offset estimation is carried out using double sliding window power detection first, obtains the thick initial position N of useful signalstart, The thick initial position NstartFor the initial position obtained step S1.
It next is exactly to carry out thin time offset estimation using the NDMRS signal that receives, for NPUSCH Format1 format, Assuming that subcarrier spacing is Δ f, timeslot number Nslot, then according to spatial structure figure as shown in Figure 5, the SC-FDMA of NDMRS is accorded with Number number is NDMRS=Nslot.For the single tone mode of NPUSCH, the frequency domain data of NDMRS is that absolute value is equal, There may be the case where contrary sign, therefore each NDMRS symbol can't have very strong correlation after being transformed into time domain.
Therefore for single tone (single tone refers to tone signal, under single tone mode, one A NDMRS frequency domain symbol data correspond to the SC-FDMA symbol of a NDMRS of time domain) in the case of, first locally generated NDMRS frequency domain modulation data, and record the sign of each frequency domain NDMRS data.Assuming that the frequency domain of the local NDMRS generated Number of complex symbols evidence is SNDMRS(k),0≤k≤NNDMRS- 1, then according to formula
The sign of NDMRS frequency domain data is obtained, wherein
That is, step S2 described in this example preferably includes following sub-step:
Step S201, in the frequency domain modulation data of locally generated narrowband demodulation reference signal, and described in calculating and record The sign of the frequency domain modulation data of narrowband demodulation reference signal;
Step S202 extracts the narrowband demodulation reference signal time domain data of previous section, obtains the first time domain data;
Step S203 extracts the narrowband demodulation reference signal time domain data of aft section, obtains the second time domain data.
As shown in fig. 6, in step S201 described in this example, the frequency domain modulation data of the narrowband demodulation reference signal whether be Tone signal, if then according to the frequency domain number of complex symbols of the narrowband demodulation reference signal according to the calculating sign;If otherwise By the sign of rotation position 1 of the sign of the frequency domain modulation data of the narrowband demodulation reference signal.
More specifically, in step S201 described in this example, pass through formula
Calculate the sign sign of the frequency domain modulation data of the narrowband demodulation reference signal under tone signal modeNDMRS(k1), Wherein,For under multitone mode (multi tone mode) k1It is indexed for the subscript of narrowband demodulation reference signal, real () indicates to take the reality of complex signal Portion, imag () indicate to take the imaginary part of complex signal, SNDMRSIt (k) is the frequency domain number of complex symbols evidence of the narrowband demodulation reference signal, 0 ≤k≤NNDMRS- 1, NNDMRSFor the single-carrier frequency division multiple access symbol numbers of narrowband demodulation reference signal.
In step S202 described in this example, pass through formula Extract the first time domain dataWherein, n1For timeslot number index, m is that the time domain of current time slots number is adopted Sampling point index, τ are the length index for shifting relevant operation, and totalSymLen is a single carrier frequency division comprising cyclic prefix The time domain total length of multiple access symbol, r are the time domain data received.
In step S203 described in this example, pass through formula
Extract the second time domain DataWherein, n2For timeslot number index, m is the time domain sampling point rope of current time slots number Draw, τ is the length index for shifting relevant operation, and totalSymLen is the single-carrier frequency division multiple access symbol comprising cyclic prefix Number time domain total length,Represent the sign of local NDMRS data, r be receive when Numeric field data.
More specifically, when this example defines two variables and is used to extract the two-part NDMRS in front and back for receiving signal respectively Numeric field data, it is assumed that the two variables are respectively pNDmrsData1 and pNDmrsData2.Then pNDmrsData1 data can indicate ForWherein, Nstart≤τ≤Nstart+NcorrLen- 1,0≤m≤totalSymLen-1。n1For timeslot number index, m is the time-domain sampling of current time slots number Point index, τ are the length index for shifting relevant operation, and totalSymLen is a SC-FDMA symbol comprising cyclic prefix Time domain total length.
Then pNDmrsData2 data can be expressed as
Wherein Nstart≤τ≤Nstart+NcorrLen- 1,0≤m≤totalSymLen-1。 n2For timeslot number index, m is that the time domain sampling point of current time slots number indexes, and τ is the index of timing slip, and totalSymLen is The time domain total length of a SC-FDMA symbol comprising cyclic prefix.
It is noted that can be seen that the data for pNDmrsData2 from formula above, need according to local The NDMRS symbol position of storage carries out the rotation of sign.Therefore for different τ, when needing each to pNDmrsData2 Each time domain data point in gap carries out a symbol rotation, the time-consuming computationally compared in this way.
As long as by actual analysis it can be found that meeting NcorrLenIn the case where < totanSymLen, it is only necessary to τ= Nstart, symbol rotation is carried out to totalSymLen time domain sampling point of each time slot of pNDmrsData2, for τ > Nstart (it is unsatisfactory for τ=NstartWith regard to using τ > NstartMode), it is only necessary to phase rotation is carried out to a point newly increasing, such as Shown in Fig. 7, NcorrLenPartially synchronous points when being maximum, therefore above formula can be modified are as follows:
Wherein τ=Nstart,0≤m≤totalSymLen-1。
Wherein Nstart+1≤τ≤Nstart+NcorrLen- 1,M=totalSymLen-1.
That is, under different conditions to the value of τ and m, two methods are compared, what first method needed in total Cycle-index are as follows: NcorrLen*NNDMRS* totalSymLen/2, the cycle-index that second method needs in total areTherefore, τ=N is chosen for the value of τ and mstart,0≤m≤totalSymLen-1 or Nstart+1≤τ≤Nstart+NcorrLen- 1,It, can be with saving algrithm time-consuming when m=totalSymLen-1.τ at this is that displacement is related The length of operation indexes, and m is that the time domain sampling point of current time slots number indexes.
Next the pNDmrsData1 data to the current τ moment of acquisition and pNDmrsData2 data carry out correlometer It calculates.That is in step S3 described in this example, pass through formulaWhen calculating current The correlation of the first time domain data and the second time domain data carvedWherein pNDmrsData1 and pNDmrsData2 is respectively and works as First time domain data at preceding moment and the numerical value of the second time domain data.
Here it can be seen that carrying out the relevant method of time domain by using NDMRS, can gradually by time offset estimation more Accurately, the double sliding window power detection by the first step, can obtain the initial position of rough useful signal, it is possible to reduce after The calculating time span of the thin time offset estimation in face.Then the NDMRS data of data are received by extracting, then by the NDMRS number of extraction According to being split into two halves, then the related method for looking for peak value to determine thin time offset estimation is carried out, can also worked in the case where big frequency deviation good It is good.And the case where carrying out thin time offset estimation, under single tone mode, NDMRS data the case where there are contrary signs, First in locally generated frequency domain NDMRS number of complex symbols evidence, clock synchronization is then determined the need for according to the sign of the data of generation Numeric field data carries out sign rotation.Finally allow comprehensive test instrument in lesser complexity more accurately to DUT data Time offset estimation is carried out, can be very good to meet production test.In summary based on the time offset estimation of NDMRS in comprehensive test instrument system The process of algorithm is as shown in Figure 6.
As shown in fig. 7, step S4 described in this example includes following sub-step:
Step S401 calculates τ=τ+1;
Step S402, judges whether τ is greater than Nstart+NcorrLen- 1, if otherwise return step S2, if going to step S403;
Step S403, uses formulaSearch obtains maximum phase Pass value, and maximum related value is compared with pre-set threshold value, if the maximum related value is greater than the threshold value, ThenFor time offset estimation value, this makes it possible to thus calculate more accurate time offset estimation;Otherwise, then mistake is returned, it is current to believe The estimation failure of number Symbol Timing.
The present invention also provides a kind of time offset estimation systems of wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel, use such as The time offset estimation method of the upper wireless comprehensive test instrument narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel.
Shown in sum up, this example carries out double sliding window power to the data for the narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel that acquisition receives Detection, obtains rough initial position, it is possible to reduce the calculating time span of the time offset estimation segmented below;Then by preceding Two-part narrowband demodulation reference signal time domain data extracts afterwards, then passes through the first time domain data and the second time domain data Correlation looks for peak value, to determine the time offset estimation of subdivision, also can guarantee that work is good in the case where big frequency deviation, and then can Better Symbol Timing estimation performance is obtained, and there is certain anti-frequency deviation effect;Finally wireless comprehensive test instrument is existed Time offset estimation more accurately is carried out to DUT (equipment under test) data in the case of lesser complexity, can be very good to meet production The requirement of test.
More specifically, then this example will first by extracting the NDMRS data of each time slot in wireless comprehensive test instrument NDMRS data are divided into two pieces, i.e. first half and latter half, then pass through this side according to relevant calculation is carried out to two block numbers Method can resist influence of the frequency deviation to time offset estimation.
For under single-tone mode (single tone mode), the NDMRS modulation sequence contrary sign of frequency domain leads to the SC- of time domain The poor situation of FDMA symbol correlation is marked using sign rotation first in locally generated NDMRS modulation sequence, is then obtained Will position carries out sign compensation to received NDMRS data.NPUSCH carries out the software of time offset estimation using the NDMRS extracted Framework.
