Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. 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.
At present, Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization is mainly realized through manual adjustment according to application scenes, so that only obvious abnormal cells are subjected to targeted adjustment and optimization, and the whole network cannot be considered. The optimization adjustment scheme is processed by manual judgment, so that the optimization method needs a lot of time and labor. Therefore, the current optimization method has low efficiency, and the accuracy of the scheme cannot be guaranteed.
To solve the problem, the embodiment of the invention provides a Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization method. The method can be applied to the scenario of Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization. The corresponding execution main body of the method may be a base station where the Massive MIMO antenna is located, or may be an independently set Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization apparatus, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention. For convenience of explanation, the embodiment of the present invention takes a base station where a dominant implementation is a Massive MIMO antenna as an example, and explains a beam optimization method for a Massive MIMO antenna provided in the embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for optimizing a Massive MIMO antenna beam according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for optimizing a Massive MIMO antenna beam, including:
101, obtaining the service distribution of the current user in the target cell according to the throughput distribution of the beam in the target cell, and obtaining the service distribution of the potential user according to the noise distribution of the beam in the target cell and the throughput distribution of the beam in the adjacent regions with the same frequency.
Since the data of the same-frequency neighboring cell is obtained through an eNodeB (Evolved Node B, LTE base station) where the neighboring cell is located, the process of obtaining the eNodeB where the same-frequency neighboring cell is located is also included before 101. The method for acquiring the eNodeB of the same-frequency adjacent cells is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the invention, and includes but is not limited to selecting forward first-layer adjacent cells and second-layer adjacent cells, selecting backward first-layer adjacent cells, and screening out cells with the same frequency as Massive MIMO cells. And removing duplication according to the eNodeB ID to obtain a list of eNodeBs in which the same-frequency adjacent regions of the Massive MIMO cell are located.
In 101, a target cell is a Massive MIMO cell to be optimized, and statistics are given of traffic distribution of users within coverage of an antenna lobe angle of the Massive MIMO cell and traffic distribution of users adjacent outside the coverage area of the antenna lobe angle of the Massive MIMO cell, where the traffic distribution of users is mainly reflected in a hotspot direction of the users and a throughput generated by corresponding user services.
The Massive MIMO antenna is composed of a plurality of antenna array elements, and the throughput distribution of the Massive MIMO antenna to beams covered by the target cell reflects the traffic distribution of current users of the target cell. Potential users are covered outside the lobe angle, and partial users in the potential users can be covered in the beam range after the lobe angle is adjusted through the weight. Users outside the coverage of the lobe angle can generate certain noise influence on the users inside the coverage, the condition of potential users outside the lobe angle can be reflected through the noise distribution of the wave beam, and the service distribution condition of the potential users can be obtained by combining the throughput distribution of the wave beam in the adjacent region.
102, according to the traffic distribution of the current user and the traffic distribution of the potential user, obtaining the traffic distribution of the user before and after being adjusted according to each weight, and obtaining the expected throughput gain of the target cell beam after being adjusted according to each weight according to the traffic distribution of the user before and after being adjusted according to each weight.
The traffic distribution of the current user corresponds to the traffic distribution of the user before being adjusted according to the weight, part of new users can be absorbed from potential users for covering after the beam is adjusted according to the weight, and part of users in the current user may not be in the coverage range due to the change of the lobe angle coverage range after the weight is adjusted. According to the traffic distribution of the current user, the traffic distribution of the potential user and the corresponding weight, the traffic distribution of the user after the weight adjustment can be obtained. According to the user traffic distribution before and after the weight adjustment and the corresponding user traffic, the throughput condition of the user in the coverage range of the lobe angle before the weight adjustment can be obtained, and the throughput condition of the user in the coverage range of the lobe angle after the weight adjustment can be obtained. And according to the user throughput conditions before and after the weight adjustment, acquiring the expected gain of the throughput after the weight adjustment relative to the throughput before the adjustment.
103, according to the expected gain of the user throughput corresponding to each beam weight, selecting the weight for beam optimization to perform beam adjustment.
Because there are a plurality of weights, the expected throughput gain corresponding to each weight needs to be obtained according to the weight. The expected throughput gain is obtained by statistical analysis, and the process of adjusting the lobe angle according to the weight is not implemented at this time. And selecting the weight values meeting the requirements to carry out beam optimization according to each weight value and the expected gain corresponding to each weight value, and implementing beam adjustment. And if the weight value with the largest expected throughput gain can be selected for optimizing the beam.
According to each weight and the corresponding user throughput expected gain, a comparison table of the relationship between the weight and the user throughput expected gain shown in the following table 1 can be generated for selecting the weight for beam optimization to perform beam adjustment. 2_ h65_ v8_ tilt3 is taken as an example for explanation: the horizontal lobe angle of h65 is 65 °, the vertical lobe angle of v8 is 8 °, tilt3 is an electrical downtilt angle, and the beam is adjusted by the weight through the three parameters.

According to the Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the user traffic distribution before and after being adjusted according to each weight is obtained according to the traffic distribution of the current user and the traffic distribution of the potential user, the expected throughput gain of the beam after being adjusted according to each weight is obtained, and the weight for beam optimization is selected according to the expected throughput gain corresponding to each beam weight, so that the optimization efficiency and the optimization accuracy are higher.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, as an optional embodiment, before obtaining the traffic distribution of the current user in the target cell according to the throughput distribution of the beam in the target cell, and obtaining the traffic distribution of the potential user according to the noise distribution of the beam in the target cell and the throughput distribution of the beam in the adjacent cells with the same frequency, the method further includes: acquiring throughput distribution and noise distribution of beams according to Call History Report (CHR) or Measurement Report (MR) data acquired in preset busy hours, and acquiring throughput distribution of beams of adjacent cells of the same frequency according to CHR or MR data acquired in preset busy hours of adjacent cells of the same frequency.
The CHR or MR data includes measurement data of user communication, such as throughput of the user and noise of the beam, and thus can be used to count the throughput of the beam. The preset busy hour is a data acquisition time period, the busy hour can reflect the traffic distribution condition of the user, for example, 19:00-23:00 is the peak period of the residential area traffic at night. Taking the collection of CHR data as an example, the subscription related data to eNodeB is shown in table 2.
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0001883903780000061
Wherein, PERIOD _ INTRA _ FREQ _ MEASUREMENT is statistical user frequency, PERIOD _ prior _ THROUGHPUT _ MEASUREMENT is statistical user THROUGHPUT, PERIOD _ prior _ BEAM _ propagation is user BEAM information, and BEAM _ NOISE _ TRACKING is statistical NOISE distribution. According to the obtained CHR data of the Massive MIMO station, the throughput distribution and the noise distribution of the wave beams can be obtained, and according to the obtained CHR data of the same-frequency adjacent region, the throughput distribution of the potential user wave beams of the same-frequency adjacent region can be obtained.
The Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization method provided by the embodiment of the invention can effectively obtain the throughput distribution of the target cell and the same-frequency adjacent cell beam according to the CHR or MR data.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, as an optional embodiment, obtaining the expected throughput gain of the beam after being adjusted by each weight according to the user traffic distribution before being adjusted by each weight and after being adjusted by each weight, includes: and acquiring the expected gain of the throughput of each weight according to the speech system data distributed by the user traffic before and after the adjustment according to each weight.
The information in the speech system data can be used for counting throughput gain, and the expected throughput gain of each weight can be obtained according to the speech system data distributed by the user traffic before and after the adjustment according to each weight. The relevant metrics for calculating the throughput gain in the session data are shown in table 3:
TABLE 3
Figure BDA0001883903780000071
The throughput gain KPI (Key Performance Indicator) is used for counting and calculating the expected throughput gain of each weight, and the basic KPI is a necessary condition to be satisfied after the weight is adjusted. The indexes and parameter values of the KPI are set according to requirements, and the collection time is recommended to be one week.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, as an optional embodiment, selecting a weight for beam optimization to perform beam adjustment according to a throughput expected gain corresponding to each beam weight includes: and selecting a weight for beam optimization from the expected throughput gain corresponding to each beam weight according to the screening condition to carry out beam adjustment.
Considering that the weight with the largest expected throughput gain is not necessarily suitable for weight adjustment, the weight selection for beam optimization needs to satisfy certain screening conditions, which include but are not limited to:
the horizontal wave width, the vertical wave width and the downward inclination angle are adjusted by 2 at most simultaneously, so that the reduction of user throughput rate caused by absorbing a large number of edge users due to the fact that the weight is adjusted greatly is avoided; if the user traffic in the beam vertical direction is widely distributed, the vertical bandwidth should be preferentially adjusted, and if the user traffic in the beam horizontal direction is widely distributed, the horizontal bandwidth should be preferentially adjusted, and the bandwidth corresponding to the adjustment weight covers the beam with the high traffic ratio as much as possible.
The Massive MIMO antenna beam optimization method provided by the embodiment of the invention ensures that the beam optimization is more reasonable through the limitation of screening conditions.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, as an optional embodiment, after obtaining the traffic distribution of the current user in the target cell according to the throughput distribution of the beam in the target cell, before obtaining the traffic distribution of the user before adjusting according to each weight and before obtaining the traffic distribution of the user after adjusting according to each weight according to the traffic distribution of the current user and the traffic distribution of the potential users, the method further includes: and adjusting the azimuth angle of the antenna according to the traffic distribution of the current user.
The Massive MIMO wave beam can not obtain the user distribution in the cell at the initial stage of Massive MIMO network establishment, and the set azimuth angle of the antenna can not meet the optimal coverage. After the traffic distribution of the current user in the target cell is obtained according to the throughput distribution of the beam in the target cell, the azimuth angle of the antenna needs to be adjusted according to the traffic distribution of the current user.
The signal transmission and reception at the transceiving ends can be described by the departure angle and the arrival angle. The angular problem is determined by the position of the mobile subscriber, and the line-of-sight direction from the base station to the subscriber includes the departure angle (departure angle) of the signal at the transmitting end and the arrival angle (arrival angle) of the channel at the receiving end. The departure angle and the arrival angle jointly form the directivity of the signal, and then the signal guide vector is formed by combining the antenna structure, and the azimuth angle of the antenna can be adjusted according to the signal guide vector.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, as an optional embodiment, there are multiple target cells, and accordingly, according to the expected throughput gain corresponding to each beam weight, selecting a weight for beam optimization to perform beam adjustment includes: and selecting the target cell with the highest expected throughput gain for weight adjustment according to the expected throughput gain corresponding to each beam weight of each target cell, and selecting the corresponding weight for beam optimization for beam adjustment.
When the Massive MIMO station covers a plurality of cells, the cell with the highest expected gain is selected to carry out weight adjustment. Under the situation of Massive MIMO continuous networking, adjacent Massive MIMO cells (such as cells in the same station, adjacent cells in opposite direction and the like) are prevented from being adjusted at the same time, and the cell with the highest expected gain is selected in an overlapped coverage area to adjust the weight.
Based on the content of the foregoing embodiments, as an optional embodiment, further screening may be performed on whether the target cell implements antenna beam optimization, including but not limited to that the cell implementing antenna beam optimization needs to satisfy the following conditions: the expected gain of the weight optimization throughput of the cell is more than 5 percent; the utilization rate of downlink PRB in busy time of the cell is lower than 50 percent (can be obtained by voice system data); the near end user of the cell is more than 50% (available via session data).
Based on the content of the above embodiment, as an optional embodiment, the weight value is calculated by a weight value tool.
The weight includes three parameters of the horizontal lobe angle, the vertical lobe angle and the electrical downtilt angle of the antenna. By adjusting the antenna, beam steering is firstly performed, the beam steering is in a simple scanning beam form, the main beam of the antenna points to a target direction by selecting weights, the amplitudes of the weights of a beam former are equal, the difference between the weights is exp (-j2 pi f tau), and the weights of the antenna array are as follows:
Figure BDA0001883903780000091
in the formula, M is the number of array elements in the antenna array,
Figure BDA0001883903780000092
is a signal steering vector. The working principle is as follows: the steering vector is the phase between two array elements receiving signal in signal receiving processThe difference is that the antenna has transmit-receive reciprocity, i.e. the processing of the receiving process can also be applied to the transmitting process, since a theta is received0In the case of directional signals, a (θ) phase difference is generated between array elements0) In transmission, a (theta) is artificially set between array elements0) The interference pattern between array elements will naturally be referred to as θ0Direction, forming beam pointing.
Firstly, precoding beam forming weight and antenna joint optimization are carried out on each user. Supposing that K users are provided, optimizing the K user, taking SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) as an optimization criterion, simultaneously carrying out joint optimization on an antenna array and a beam forming weight, and forming a joint optimization array W by the antenna array position and the beam forming weightk=[Wk1,Wk2,Wk3],Wk1For beamforming weights, Wk2,Wk3Describing the channel matrix H of user k for the antenna array element position matrix and user angle informationkThen, the signal-to-noise ratio SINR of the system is expressed as:
Figure BDA0001883903780000093
wherein HfThe channel matrix, M sigma, is obtained from the transmitting end to other user receiving ends by using a fixed transmitting array2Is a noise matrix.
The weight value can be calculated according to the formula, and the weight value tool is an existing tool which is used at present and can quickly calculate the weight value according with the noise ratio SINR and generate a plurality of weight value files. And optimizing the Massive MIMO antenna beam according to each obtained weight.
