Description

Frequency band searching method and device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a frequency band searching method and apparatus.
Background
In wireless communication, a terminal (User Equipment, UE) needs to detect whether there is a Long Term Evolution (LTE) signal in a configured frequency band when the frequency band configuration is known. If LTE signals exist, further confirmation is needed for determining which frequency points are in order to try to reside in the cell of the LTE system at the frequency points. The longer the frequency band searching time is, the worse the user experience is, and the larger the power consumption of the terminal is. In order to increase the frequency band searching speed, the frequency band searching usually adopts a sequencing structure, and a plurality of evaluation frequency points are generally selected at equal intervals in the frequency band, and each evaluation frequency point corresponds to a frequency point window. And sequencing the evaluation frequency points according to certain measurement, and then sequencing all the frequency points in the frequency point window corresponding to the evaluation frequency points.
The LTE mode of the terminal mostly adopts two channels, which are divided into a main set channel and a diversity channel, the main set channel is responsible for receiving downlink LTE signals and sending uplink LTE signals, and the diversity channel is only responsible for receiving downlink LTE signals. When the terminal supports multiple modes to operate simultaneously, the LTE diversity channel is usually co-antenna with other modes, such as global system for mobile communications (GSM). The antennas connected to the main set path are referred to as main set antennas for short, and the antennas connected to the diversity path are referred to as diversity antennas for short. When a hand holds a certain antenna position, the quality of signals received by a channel corresponding to the antenna is poor, the signal power is reduced by dozens of db (decibel), and the searching performance is reduced. For a multimode terminal with a metal housing, when a user holds the LTE main set antenna and the LTE diversity antenna is occupied by other modes, such as GSM, the received LTE signal quality is poor, and the LTE cell cannot be searched. If this happens during the LTE band search phase, it will result in the terminal not camping on the LTE cell where the LTE signal power is good.
The existing solution is as follows: for each frequency band, firstly carrying out LTE frequency band search once according to an antenna direct connection mode, and if an LTE cell is searched, finishing the frequency band search; if the LTE cell is not searched after the whole frequency band search is completed, the LTE frequency band search needs to be carried out on the same frequency band again according to an antenna crossing mode. As shown in fig. 1, the metal-casing multimode terminal LTE has two antennas, ant1 and Ant2 respectively. The user holds on Ant 1. When the antenna is through, as shown in a diagram a in fig. 1, the LTE master set channel LTE TRx is connected to Ant1, and since the user holds Ant1 in his hand, the received signal quality of this channel is poor. The LTE diversity channel LTE DRx is connected with Ant2, and the GSM system occupies Ant2, so the channel can not receive LTE signals. When the antennas are crossed, as shown in the diagram b in fig. 1, the LTE master set channels LTE TRx and Ant2 are connected, and the antennas held by the user are avoided, so that the channels can normally receive LTE signals. The LTE diversity channel LTE DRx is connected with Ant1, and the GSM system occupies Ant1, so the channel can not receive LTE signals.
At present, a Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) mode of a terminal mostly has only 1 main set channel, and is responsible for receiving downlink and transmitting uplink TD-SCDMA signals. Although there is no problem that the diversity antenna is occupied by other modes, when the user holds the TD-SCDMA main set antenna of the metal casing terminal, if antenna switching is not adopted, the quality of the received TD-SCDMA signal is poor, and the TD-SCDMA cell cannot be searched. If the situation occurs in the TD-SCDMA frequency band searching stage, the terminal cannot stay in the TD-SCDMA cell in a place with good TD-SCDMA signal quality.
According to the prior art, although the frequency band searching scheme is simple, the optimal antenna connection mode cannot be intelligently identified, the time for searching the frequency band in the worst scene is too long, compared with the single frequency band searching, the time for searching the frequency band in the worst scene is doubled, and the user experience is seriously influenced.

Specifically, for LTE systems, the diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink and transmitting uplink LTE signals. For the TD-SCDMA system, the diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink and sending uplink TD-SCDMA signals.
In the embodiment of the invention, a plurality of frequency points in the frequency band are generally selected at equal intervals as the evaluation frequency points of the frequency band. The spacing size is generally related to the bandwidth over which the received signal strength statistics are performed at that frequency bin. And a plurality of frequency points are included between two adjacent evaluation frequency points.

Fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a frequency band searching apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4, the frequency band searching apparatus 20 includes: the transceiver 21, the processor 22, the memory 23 and the data bus 24, wherein the receiver 21, the processor 22 and the memory 23 are respectively connected with the data bus 24 for data interaction through the data bus 24. The memory 23 contains the necessary driver software needed for the processor 22 to run so that the processor 22 operates under the software.
The transceiver 21 receives the time domain signal of each evaluation frequency point in a plurality of evaluation frequency points in a frequency band in a first antenna connection mode, and obtains the signal intensity statistic of the time domain signal of each evaluation frequency point. The processor 22 determines whether the signal strength statistics of the time domain signals of the multiple evaluation frequency points are all smaller than a preset power threshold. And when the signal strength statistics of the time domain signals of the multiple evaluation frequency points are all smaller than the preset power threshold, the processor 22 outputs an indication signal to the transceiver 21, and the transceiver performs frequency band searching again according to the second antenna connection mode instead of the indication signal. The specific frequency band search process of the transceiver 21 can be referred to the description of the previous method embodiment.
The first antenna connection mode is to search a frequency band through a first antenna. In the first antenna connection mode, the main set receiving channel is connected with the first antenna, and the diversity receiving channel is connected with the second antenna, namely, the antenna through connection mode. For the LTE system, the main diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink LTE signals and transmitting uplink LTE signals, and the diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink LTE signals and shares an antenna with GSM. For the TD-SCDMA system, the main channel is responsible for receiving downlink and sending uplink TD-SCDMA signals, and the diversity channel is not occupied by other modules. The second antenna connection mode is to search a frequency band through a second antenna outside the first antenna. In the second antenna connection mode, the main set receiving channel is connected with the second antenna, and the diversity receiving channel is connected with the first antenna, namely, the antenna is in cross connection. Specifically, for LTE systems, the diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink and transmitting uplink LTE signals. For the TD-SCDMA system, the diversity channel is responsible for receiving downlink and sending uplink TD-SCDMA signals.
In the embodiment of the invention, a plurality of frequency points in the frequency band are generally selected at equal intervals as evaluation frequency points of the frequency band. The spacing size is generally related to the bandwidth over which the received signal strength statistics are performed at that frequency bin. And a plurality of frequency points are included between two adjacent evaluation frequency points. In the frequency band search, the transceiver 21 counts the received signal strength within a preset bandwidth with the evaluation frequency point as a center frequency point to obtain a signal strength statistic. If the processor 22 determines that the signal strength statistic of the time domain signal of at least one evaluation frequency point in the plurality of evaluation frequency points is not less than the preset power threshold, the transceiver 21 is further instructed to continue frequency search according to the first antenna connection mode until the frequency band search of the frequency band is finished. The transceiver 21 further receives time domain signals of each of a plurality of frequency points in the frequency band, and obtains synchronization signals based on the time domain signals of the plurality of frequency points; wherein at least one frequency point in the plurality of frequency points is included between two adjacent evaluation frequency points. The judgment of the embodiment of the invention only depends on the statistic of the existing frequency band searching scheme, and does not increase the time consumption of frequency band searching when the antenna does not need to be switched. When the antenna switching is needed, the added time consumption only depends on the time consumption of the statistic, and the time consumption is far less than the time of single frequency band searching. Therefore, the time consumption of frequency band searching can be greatly reduced without reducing the robustness.
The frequency band searching device 20 can be applied to an LTE system, in which the antenna port power is obtained by calculating and evaluating the received signal strength of a 1.08M bandwidth signal with a frequency point as a center frequency point by a searching module, and performing conversion. The frequency band searching apparatus 20 may also be applied to TD-SCDMA, in which the antenna port power is obtained by receiving the time domain signal in the 1.28M bandwidth with the evaluation frequency point as the center frequency point by the searching module, performing frame synchronization to obtain the received signal strength of the downlink pilot time slot signal, and performing conversion. The interval between adjacent frequency points of the TD-SCDMA system is 200KHz.
The frequency band searching method of the invention is carried out independently for each frequency band, namely whether switching is needed or not is carried out independently for each frequency band, searching for the next frequency band is carried out after searching for one frequency band is finished, and whether the antenna connection mode needs to be replaced or not is judged again to carry out frequency band searching.
In summary, the time domain signals of each evaluation frequency point of a frequency band are received in the first antenna connection mode, statistics are obtained, whether the power of the antenna port of each evaluation frequency point of the frequency band is smaller than a preset power threshold is judged based on the statistics, and when the power of the antenna port of each evaluation frequency point of the frequency band is smaller than the preset power threshold, the second antenna connection mode is replaced to search the frequency band again, so that the increased time consumption only depends on the time consumption of the statistics and is far shorter than the time of single frequency band search, and thus, the time consumption of frequency band search can be greatly reduced while the robustness is not reduced.
