Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. 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.
The present invention provides a synchronization method, as shown in fig. 1, including:
step 101, an active antenna unit receives a frame synchronization message sent by a baseband unit;
step 102, the active antenna unit determines that a frame number in the frame synchronization message is different from a frame number generated by the active antenna unit, and acquires an absolute time in the frame synchronization message;
103, the active antenna unit performs time calibration on the active antenna unit according to the absolute time;
and 104, completing a frame number configuration process by the active antenna unit according to the calibrated time, thereby realizing frame synchronization with the baseband unit.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the Active antenna Unit may be an AAU (Active antenna Unit) in the fifth generation communication technology, or may also be a radio Remote Unit rru (radio Remote Unit), and the Baseband Unit may be a BBU (Building base band Unit), or may also be a generic name of a CU (Centralized Unit) and a DU (Distributed Unit) in the fifth generation communication technology, which is not limited herein.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the frame number refers to a half frame number, that is, the frame number is counted according to a half frame.
In step 101, the active antenna unit receives a frame synchronization message sent by the baseband unit, and in the embodiment of the present invention, the active antenna unit and the baseband unit perform message transmission through a service channel IQ; optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the active antenna unit acquires the frame synchronization message sent by the baseband unit through the IR interface.
Optionally, in step 101, the frame synchronization information sent by the baseband unit is sent to the active antenna unit when the baseband unit performs even-second frame number configuration.
In step 102, the active antenna unit first determines whether a frame number in the frame synchronization message is the same as a frame number generated by the active antenna unit body, and determines a frame number determined by the baseband unit when the frame number in the frame synchronization message is different from the frame number determined by the active antenna unit body.
In the embodiment of the invention, the frame number determined by the baseband unit is converted through the absolute second time of the baseband unit, and the baseband unit is subjected to time calibration, so in the embodiment of the invention, the default frame number of the baseband unit is the correct frame number, when the frame number generated by the active antenna unit body is inconsistent with the frame number generated by the baseband unit, the active antenna unit is considered to need to reconfigure the frame number, and if the frame number generated by the active antenna unit body is consistent with the frame number generated by the baseband unit, the active antenna is determined not to need to carry out frame synchronization, and the frame number generated by the active antenna unit can be continuously delayed.
In step 102, the active antenna unit determines an absolute time in the acquired frame synchronization message, where in the embodiment of the present invention, the absolute time is a time after the baseband unit and the clock are calibrated, and may be a GPS absolute time, or an absolute time of a 1588 master clock, or an absolute time of another time reference.
In step 103, after the active antenna unit obtains the absolute time sent by the baseband unit, the active antenna unit performs time calibration on the body according to the absolute time.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the active antenna unit performs time calibration according to the pulse per second of the absolute time and the interrupt generated by the active antenna unit.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present invention, since the frame number configuration requires time to be written into the register, the active antenna element determines the synchronization frame number according to the calibrated time and the frame number configuration period and the corresponding relationship between the time and the frame number, for example, the frame number configuration period is 85ms, the current time is T1, and the active antenna element determines the frame number corresponding to the arrival of the next frame number configuration period according to the corresponding relationship between the time of T1+85ms and the synchronization frame number.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the active antenna unit converts a half frame number from 0 to 2048 according to the absolute time and the frame number configuration period, where the half frame number is a new sync frame number, and the sync frame number is consistent with the sync frame number generated by the baseband unit.
Optionally, in step 103, the active antenna unit includes a first processing module and a second processing module, after the active antenna unit determines that frame synchronization is required, the first processing module performs time calibration on the active antenna unit according to absolute time, and the second processing module determines a synchronization frame number according to a calibrated time, a frame number configuration period, and a correspondence between the time and the frame number.
In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first processing module sends a response message to the second processing module when the set time arrives, and notifies the second processing module that the set time arrives, and the second processing module sends the determined synchronization frame number to the first processing module after receiving the response message, thereby implementing frame number configuration of the active antenna unit.
Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the active antenna unit includes a master processor and a slave processor, and the master processor includes the first processing module and the second processing module.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the second processing module sends the synchronous frame number to the first processing module, the synchronous frame number is also sent to the slave processor, so that the slave processor of the active antenna unit completes frame number synchronization.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first processing module is a driver of the main processor, and the second processing module is an SFN module of the main processor.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, after the active antenna unit determines that frame synchronization is required, the second processing module calls the driver function to apply for notification of a time edge of a next frame number configuration period.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, since 80ms is required for calculating the frame number, and 5ms is required for writing the frame number into the register, the frame number configuration period is 85 ms.
In order to better explain the embodiment of the present invention, a synchronization method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described below through a specific implementation scenario.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first processing module of the active antenna unit is driven by a main processor of the active antenna unit, and the second processing module is a main processor SFN module, and the specific process is as shown in fig. 2:
step 201, a baseband unit sends a frame synchronization message to an active antenna unit through an IR data interface;
step 202, a main processor of the active antenna unit drives to acquire a half frame number and a second pulse of absolute time carried in a frame synchronization message;
step 203, the main processor of the active antenna unit drives and determines whether the field number generated by the active antenna unit body is inconsistent with the field number carried in the frame synchronization message;
step 204, the SFN module of the main processor applies for a notification of a time edge of a next frame number configuration period of 85ms by calling a driver function;
step 205, the main processor drives the time for calibrating the active antenna unit according to the second pulse of the absolute time and the 80ms, 5ms and 500 mus generated by the body;
step 206, after the main processor driver arrives at 85ms, sending a time edge notification to the main processor SFN module;
step 207, the main processor SFN module determines a half frame number that takes effect after 85ms according to the current time and 85ms time;
step 208, the SFN module of the main processor sends the determined half frame number to the main processor driver;

In the above embodiment, the main processor SFN module and the main processor driver are parallel processing processes, the above steps are only identifiers describing the processes, and the step identifiers between the main processor SFN module and the main processor driver are not used as the standards of the sequence of steps.
