Detailed Description
In the existing implementation scheme, for the explicit acquisition method, a receiving end needs to feed back channel state information, so that WLAN channel resources are occupied, and the system overhead is high; for the implicit acquisition method, the receiving end needs to feed back the Sounding data packet, and also needs to occupy WLAN channel resources, which results in high system overhead.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the data to be sent and the transmitting antenna used by the data to be sent are determined, and then the data to be sent and the identifier of the determined transmitting antenna are sent to the opposite terminal, so that the opposite terminal (i.e. the beacon) can calculate and acquire the channel state information based on the received data and the identifier of the transmitting antenna, and the technical problem of high system overhead caused by directly sending feedback channel state information or sending Sounding data packets is avoided. Therefore, by applying the scheme, the opposite end can acquire the channel state information with lower system overhead.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for indicating a channel state, which may include the following steps:
step S101, determining data to be transmitted and a transmitting antenna used by the data.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the same antenna is shared for transmission/reception, the transmission channel and the reception channel are the same, and when the beacon transmits data, the identifier of the transmission antenna used by the beacon is transmitted to the beacon, so that the beacon can calculate and acquire channel state information based on the received data and the transmission antenna used by the beacon. Therefore, for beamform, it is first necessary to determine the data to be transmitted and the transmitting antenna used by the data.
In a specific implementation, the beamform may determine, based on its own algorithm, a transmitting antenna used by data to be transmitted, that is, the beamform may select a reasonable transmitting antenna based on a certain algorithm, so that the beamform can obtain better complete channel state information; or determining a transmitting antenna used for transmitting the data to be transmitted based on indication information transmitted by an opposite end (i.e., beacon).
For example, in the beacon, at a first time, the beacon selects to use a first transmit antenna to transmit data, so that the beacon obtains channel state information corresponding to the first transmit antenna; and the beacon selects to use the second transmitting antenna to transmit data at the second time, so that the beacon obtains the channel state information corresponding to the second transmitting antenna. The beacon can obtain complete channel state information corresponding to the first transmitting antenna and the second transmitting antenna by selecting different transmitting antennas to transmit data at the first time and the second time.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method for indicating a channel state further includes: receiving indication information sent by an opposite terminal; and determining a transmitting antenna used for transmitting the data to be transmitted based on the indication information.
In a specific implementation, the number of the transmitting antennas may be one or multiple. When the number of the transmitting antennas is multiple, one of the transmitting antennas may be used to transmit data, or multiple transmitting antennas may be used to transmit data.
Step S102, the determined transmitting antenna is utilized to send the data to be sent and the determined identification of the transmitting antenna to an opposite terminal, so that the opposite terminal calculates and acquires channel state information based on the received data and the identification of the transmitting antenna.
In a specific implementation, the opposite end is an end that receives data to be transmitted and the determined identifier of the transmitting antenna, and is a beacon.
In a specific implementation, the peer may be an STA or an AP. And when the opposite end is the STA, the AP is Beamform, and the indication method of the channel state is executed.
In a specific implementation, the identifier of the transmitting antenna may be an index identifier of the transmitting antenna used, or may also be an invalid identifier, where the invalid identifier is used to indicate that channel state information acquired by the opposite end based on the received data is invalid information.
For example, the beamform transmits data at antenna 1 and antenna 1 simultaneously based on Cyclic Shift Delay (CSD), and at this time, the beamform calculates the acquired channel state as an invalid channel based on the received data and the identifier of the transmitting antenna.
In a specific implementation, the invalid flag may be represented by any value different from the index value of the transmitting antenna, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
In a specific implementation, the determined identifier of the transmitting antenna may be sent to the opposite end through related information of a Media Access Control (MAC) Layer, or may be sent to the opposite end through related information of a Physical Layer (Physical Layer).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the determined identifier of the transmitting antenna is sent to the opposite end through one or more of a signaling Field (SIG Field) of the physical layer packet, a Service Field (Service Field) of the physical layer packet, a Control Field (Control Field) of the MAC layer Content packet (MAC Content), and a Header (Header) of the MAC layer packet.
In specific implementation, the determined identifier of the transmitting antenna may also be sent to the opposite end through other signaling, which all belong to the protection scope of the embodiment of the present invention.
For example, when the number of the transmitting antennas is 4, the determined identifiers of the transmitting antennas may be sent to the opposite end by using 4 bits in the at least one data packet, where the correspondence between the identifiers of the 4 bits and the transmitting antennas is shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0001723988800000071
In table 1, bit 0 corresponds to antenna 0, bit 1 corresponds to antenna 1, bit 2 corresponds to antenna 2, and bit 3 corresponds to antenna 3, and when the corresponding bit is set to 1, it indicates that the corresponding antenna is used. For example, tag #1 corresponds to 1000, bit 0 is set to 1, indicating that antenna 0 is used; the identifier #6 corresponds to 0101, and bit 1 and bit 3 are set to 1, indicating that antenna 1 and antenna 3 are used; the identifier #13 corresponds to 1011, and bits 0, 2, and 3 all have a 1, indicating that antenna 0, antenna 2, and antenna 3 are used; flag #15 corresponds to 1111, and bit 0, bit 1, bit 2, and bit 3 all set to 1, indicating that antenna 0, antenna 1, antenna 2, and antenna 3 are used, and flag #0 is an invalid flag indicating that there is no available channel state information.
In specific implementation, the method for indicating the channel state may be used with an existing display scheme, an existing implicit scheme, or only with an existing implicit scheme, so that the opposite end obtains accurate channel state information, and the Beamforming performance is improved.
In a specific implementation, when the above method for indicating a channel state is used together with an existing implicit scheme, the data to be sent may include: sounding data packet. Namely, the data to be transmitted includes: normally sent packets (Packet) and Sounding packets.
In a specific implementation, the data to be sent may include part of the Sounding data packets, or may include all the Sounding data packets, so that the opposite end calculates and acquires all or part of the channel state information based on all or part of the Sounding data.
It is understood that the above-mentioned indication method of the channel status also belongs to an implicit scheme.
By applying the scheme, the data to be sent and the transmitting antenna used by the data to be sent are determined, and then the data to be sent and the identifier of the determined transmitting antenna are sent to the opposite terminal, so that the opposite terminal can calculate and acquire the channel state information based on the received data and the identifier of the transmitting antenna, and the technical problem of high system overhead caused by directly sending feedback channel state information or sending a Sounding data packet is avoided. Therefore, by applying the scheme, the opposite end can acquire the channel state information with lower system overhead. And at the same time, the channel state information can be updated more quickly.
In order to make those skilled in the art better understand and implement the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for acquiring a channel state, as shown in fig. 2.
Referring to fig. 2, the method for acquiring a channel state may include the following steps:
step S201, receiving data sent by an opposite terminal and an identifier of a transmitting antenna used by the opposite terminal.
In a specific implementation, the opposite end is an end that sends data and an identifier of a transmitting antenna used by the data, and is beamform, which may be either an STA or an AP.
In specific implementation, in order to avoid the technical problem of high system overhead caused by directly sending feedback channel state information or sending Sounding data packets, when the same antenna is shared for transmission/reception, the beamform may send the data to be sent and the determined identifier of the transmitting antenna to the beamform, so for the beamform, it is first necessary to receive the data sent by the opposite end and the identifier of the transmitting antenna used by the opposite end.
In a specific implementation, the number of the transmitting antennas may be one or multiple.
In a specific implementation, the identifier of the transmitting antenna may be an index identifier of the transmitting antenna used, or may be an invalid identifier, where the invalid identifier is used to indicate that channel state information acquired based on the received data is invalid information.
In a specific implementation, the identifier of the transmitting antenna may be obtained through one or more of a signaling Field (SIG Field) of the physical layer packet, a Service Field (Service Field) of the physical layer packet, a Control Field (Control Field) of the MAC layer Content packet (MAC Content), and a Header (Header) of the MAC layer packet.
In specific implementation, the identifier of the transmitting antenna may also be obtained through other signaling, which all belong to the protection scope of the embodiment of the present invention.
Step S202, based on the received data and the identification of the transmitting antenna used by the data, calculating and acquiring channel state information.
In a specific implementation, the opposite end may determine a transmitting antenna used for transmitting data based on its own algorithm, and may also send indication information to the opposite end, so that the opposite end determines the transmitting antenna used for transmitting data based on the indication information.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method for acquiring a channel state further includes: determining indication information, wherein the indication information is transmitting antenna information used by an opposite terminal for transmitting data; and sending the indication information to the opposite terminal, so that the opposite terminal determines a transmitting antenna used for sending data based on the indication information.
In specific implementation, the method for acquiring a channel state may be used with an existing display scheme and an existing implicit scheme, or may be used with an existing implicit scheme only, so as to acquire accurate channel state information and improve Beamforming performance.
In a specific implementation, when the above method for acquiring a channel state is used together with an existing implicit scheme, the data sent by the peer end may include: sounding data packet. Namely, the data sent by the opposite end is a normally sent data Packet (Packet) and a Sounding data Packet.
In a specific implementation, the data sent by the peer end may include a part of the Sounding packet, or may include all the Sounding packets.
It can be understood that, for step S201, when the opposite end has only one transmitting antenna, the identifier of the transmitting antenna may not be sent, that is, only the data sent by the opposite end may be received without receiving the identifier of the transmitting antenna, and then the channel state information is calculated and obtained directly based on the received data, which also belongs to the protection scope of the embodiment of the present invention.
For example, for a peer device with 1 transmission and 1 reception (Tx1Rx1), since there is only one receiving/transmitting antenna corresponding to only one receiving/transmitting channel, the peer device can directly transmit data without transmitting the identity of the transmitting antenna.
By applying the scheme, the technical problem of high system overhead caused by directly sending feedback channel state information or sending Sounding data packets by the opposite terminal (i.e. Beamform) can be avoided by receiving the data sent by the opposite terminal and the identification of the transmitting antenna used by the opposite terminal and then calculating and acquiring the channel state information based on the received data and the identification of the transmitting antenna used by the opposite terminal. And at the same time, the channel state information can be updated more quickly.
In order to make those skilled in the art better understand and implement the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a schematic diagram of a Beamforming channel, as shown in fig. 3.
Referring to fig. 3, the antennas are the same for transmission and reception, the beamform corresponds to 4-transmission and 4-reception (4Tx4Rx), and the beamform corresponds to 2-transmission and 2-reception (2Tx2Rx), and the beamform only uses Tx1 to transmit data to the beamform.
By applying the above channel state indication method, the beacon sends data, and at the same time, sends the Tx1 id to the beacon.
By applying the method for acquiring the channel state, the beacon calculates and acquires the channel H ═ H { H } based on the data sent by the beacon and the identifier of the Tx111,h12,h13,h14Status information for Beamforming. Since the transmit and receive share the same antenna, the meaning of channel H is as follows:

By applying the above channel state indication method, the beacon sends data, and at the same time, sends the Tx2 id to the beacon.
By applying the method for acquiring the channel state, the beacon calculates and acquires the channel H ═ H { H } based on the data sent by the beacon and the identifier of the Tx221,h22,h23,h24Status information for Beamforming.

By applying the method for indicating the channel state, the beacon transmits data, and simultaneously transmits the Tx1 and Tx2 identifiers to the beacon.
By applying the method for acquiring the channel state, the beacon calculates and acquires the channel H ═ H { H } based on the data sent by the beacon and the identifier of the Tx211,h12,h13,h14,h21,h22,h23,h24Shape of }State information for Beamforming. Since the transmit and receive share the same antenna, the meaning of channel H is as follows:
