Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, the invention provides a method for wireless signal transmission of a nuclear magnetic resonance imaging device, which comprises the following steps:
s1, local coil units receive MR analog signals, the number of the local coil units is multiple, and the local coil units form a local coil unit array to receive the MR analog signals.
S2, after the MR analog signals sequentially pass through a first mixer, an analog-to-digital converter and a digital down converter, MR digital baseband signals are obtained; wherein the number of the first mixers, the analog-to-digital converters and the digital down-converters is the same as the number of the local coil units.
S3, the transmitter carries out interleaving, rate matching and channel coding on the MR digital baseband signal to obtain a digital signal and maps the digital signal to a wireless channel; wherein the number of wireless channels is the same as the number of local coil units.
S31, interweaving: the present embodiment proposes two interleaving methods: rectangular interleaving and triangular interleaving.
As shown in FIG. 2, in the interleaving process, there is a cache memory, the size of the data buffer is E×F Bits, the original data of the rectangular interleaving is written into the data buffer (E row/F column) row by row according to the sequence from left to right and then from top to bottom, and then the output of the interleaving process is to read out the data from the data buffer (E row/F column) row by row according to the sequence from top to bottom and then from left to right.
Triangle interleaving As shown in FIG. 3, the size of the data buffer isThe data is read out from the data buffer (E columns) from column to column according to the sequence from top to bottom, and then the output of the interleaving process is that the data is read out from the data buffer (E columns).
S32, rate matching: in this embodiment, in order to improve the reliability of wireless transmission, the actual carrying capacity of the physical channel is greater than the throughput rate of MR digital baseband signals to be transmitted. The transmitter is re-transmitted multiple times during rate matching to match the actual carrying capacity of the physical channel (the channel that exists in an objective physical manner as specified by the radio alliance), and by this mapping method, the bit rate required by the physical channel transport format, i.e. the bit rate required by the corresponding international standard channel transport format, is achieved.
As shown in fig. 4, the actual carrying capacity (mxn Bits) of the physical channel is exactly equal to an integer multiple (N times) of the data frame length (mxts), so that the rate matching process is to repeat the data frame formed by the MR digital baseband signal N times, then perform channel coding, and finally map to the radio channel.
The second method of rate matching is shown in fig. 5, where the actual carrying capacity (mxn+a Bits) of the physical channel is not equal to an integer multiple (N times) of the data frame length (M Bits), and the remainder is a Bits. The process of rate matching is to repeat the data frame formed by the MR digital baseband signal N times, then add the first a Bits information in the data frame to the end of the data stream (as the n+1st repeated data frame), perform channel coding, and finally map to the wireless channel.
The physical channel has a physical carrying capacity greater than the MR digital baseband signal throughput rate required to be transmitted, and therefore contains multiple retransmitted MR digital baseband signals in the received data stream.
S33, channel coding: the transmitter may also transmit real-time control signals, parameter configurations and operating instructions for the local coil to be tuned and detuned.
The first method of channel coding is shown in fig. 6, where the transmitter uses LDPC channel coding for MR digital baseband signals, and Polar channel coding for real-time control signals, parameter configurations, and operating instructions for the local coil tuning and detuning.
In fig. 6, M local coil units are supported in total, the MR digital baseband signal is encoded by using an LDPC channel, the real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operation instructions for tuning and detuning the local coil are encoded by using Polar channels, then mapped to corresponding wireless channels, and transmitted to an air interface after being modulated by OFDM.
A second method of channel coding is shown in fig. 7, where the transmitter uses Turbo channel coding for MR digital baseband signals, and Polar channel coding for real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operating instructions for tuning and detuning the local coil.
In fig. 7, M local coil units are supported in total, the MR digital baseband signal is encoded by using a Turbo channel, the real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operation instructions for tuning and detuning the local coil are encoded by using a Polar channel, then mapped to corresponding wireless channels, and transmitted to an air interface after being modulated by OFDM.
S4, after OFDM modulation is carried out on the digital signals by the transmitter, microwave signals are obtained and sent to a wireless air interface.
In the embodiment, the MIMO technology is applied to a nuclear magnetic resonance signal wireless transmission system, so that space division multiplexing is realized, and the spectrum utilization rate is improved.
The scale supported by this embodiment is: MIMO mxn (where the range of values of M and N is 1 to 128, respectively), M refers to the number of transmit antennas, N refers to the number of receive antennas, and 2 typical application examples are shown in fig. 6 and 7:
as shown in fig. 8, the MIMO 2X2 application example has the number of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas of 2, so that in the process of wireless communication, the spatial multiplexing technology can multiplex unit spectrum resources 2 times, and the specific steps are as follows:
t1, channel estimation, TX0 transmits DMRS (demodulation reference signal), TX1 keeps silent, and a receiver obtains channel characteristics h00 and h01 through a digital signal processing algorithm; TX1 transmits DMRS (demodulation reference signal), TX0 keeps silent, and the receiver obtains channel characteristics h10 and h11 through a digital signal processing algorithm.
T2, data transmission, TX0 and TX1 transmit data at the same frequency at the same time, two transmitting antennas occupy the same frequency spectrum resource, and transmit two independent parallel data streams, and the unit frequency spectrum resource can be multiplexed for 2 times by using a space division multiplexing technology.
T3, data reception and separation, the signal received by the receiving antenna RX0 is rx0_r, the signal received by the receiving antenna RX1 is rx1_r, wherein rx0_r=lc00×h00+lc01×h10, and rx1_r=lc00×h01+lc01×h11 (channel characteristics h00/h01/h10/h11 are known results obtained in step T1).
Solving a binary once equation set through matrix operation to obtain separated signals LC00 and LC01;
and T4, the results LC00 and LC01 of data separation correspond to the nuclear magnetic resonance MR digital baseband signals received by the local coil unit 00 and the local coil unit 01 respectively and are independently transmitted to an image reconstruction system.
MIMO 2X2 requires that the number of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas is 2, and the same frequency is used for transmitting and receiving data, the same frequency spectrum resource is multiplexed for 2 times, and the data throughput rate of unit frequency spectrum resource is improved by 2 times through a space division multiplexing technology.
As shown in fig. 9, the principle of the example MIMO 3X3 is the same as that of the example MIMO 2X2, the number of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas of the system is required to be 3, the same frequency is used for transmitting and receiving data, the same frequency spectrum resource is multiplexed for 3 times, and the data throughput rate of the unit frequency spectrum resource is improved by 3 times through a space division multiplexing technology.
S5, the receiver receives the microwave signals from the wireless air interface, performs OFDM demodulation and separates out the digital signals carried by the wireless channels.
S6, the receiver performs channel decoding, de-rate matching and de-interleaving on the digital signal to restore the MR digital baseband signal.
S61, channel decoding:
the first method of channel decoding is shown in fig. 6, in which the transmitter uses LDPC channel coding for the MR digital baseband signal, and the receiver uses LDPC channel decoding for the digital signal; the real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operating instructions for the local coil required tuning and detuning are decoded using Polar channels.
In fig. 6, the receiver receives microwave signals from the air interface, performs OFDM demodulation, separates out digital signals carried by each radio channel, decodes MR digital baseband signals by using LDPC channels, and restores corresponding digital information after real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operation instructions for tuning and detuning required by local coils are decoded by using Polar channels.
The second method of channel decoding is shown in fig. 7, in which the transmitter uses Turbo channel coding for MR digital baseband signals, and the receiver uses Turbo channel decoding for digital signals; the real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operating instructions for the local coil required tuning and detuning are decoded using Polar channels.
In fig. 7, the receiver receives microwave signals from the air interface, performs OFDM demodulation, separates out digital signals carried by each radio channel, decodes MR digital baseband signals by using Turbo channels, and restores corresponding digital information after real-time control signals, parameter configuration and operation instructions for tuning and detuning required by the local coil are decoded by using Polar channels.
S62, rate de-matching: when the receiver is in rate de-matching, the input data is a demodulated data stream, and each Bit information code in the demodulated data stream corresponds to 1 likelihood probability value.
The first method of de-rate matching is shown in fig. 10, where the physical channel actual bearer capability (mxn Bits) is exactly equal to an integer multiple (N times) of the data frame length (mxts).
The rate-resolving matching is to superimpose the demodulation likelihood probability value corresponding to the 1 st repeated data frame (Bit 1)/the 2 nd repeated data frame (Bit 1) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit 1) to obtain the likelihood probability corresponding to the final data frame Bit 1; the demodulation likelihood probability values corresponding to the 1 st repeated data frame (Bit 2)/2 nd repeated data frame (Bit 2) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit 2) are overlapped to obtain likelihood probability corresponding to the final data frame Bit 2; the demodulation likelihood probability values corresponding to the 1 st repeated data frame (Bit M)/the 2 nd repeated data frame (Bit M) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit M) of the data frames are superimposed to obtain likelihood probabilities corresponding to the final data frame Bit M.
The second method of de-rate matching is shown in fig. 11, where the physical channel actual bearer capability (mxn+a Bits) is not equal to an integer multiple (N times) of the data frame length (M Bits), and the remainder is a Bits.
The de-rate matching is to superimpose the demodulation likelihood probability value corresponding to the (n+1) th repeated data frame (Bit 1) with the (1) st repeated data frame (Bit 1)/the (2) nd repeated data frame (Bit 1) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit 1) of the data frame to obtain the likelihood probability corresponding to the final data frame Bit 1; the 1 st repeated data frame (Bit 2)/2 nd repeated data frame (Bit 2) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit 2), and the demodulation likelihood probability values corresponding to the (n+1) th repeated data frame (Bit 2) are superimposed to obtain likelihood probabilities corresponding to the final data frame Bit 2; the 1 st repeated data frame (Bit M)/2 nd repeated data frame (Bit M) … … nth repeated data frame (Bit M), and the demodulation likelihood probability values corresponding to the n+1st repeated data frame (Bit M) are superimposed to obtain the likelihood probability corresponding to the final data frame Bit M.
Wherein, in the n+1st repeated data frame, the likelihood probability value is zero for the information codes corresponding to Bit (a+1) to Bit M.
S63, de-interleaving: the present embodiment proposes two de-interleaving methods: rectangular deinterlacing and triangular deinterlacing.
As shown in fig. 12, the size of the data buffer is e×f Bits, and the data buffer (E line/F column) is written into the data buffer column by column in the order from top to bottom, and then from left to right, so that the output of the deinterleaving process is to read out the data from the data buffer column (E line/F column) row by row in the order from left to right, and then from top to bottom.
Triangle deinterleaving as shown in fig. 13, the data buffer size isThe data is read out from the data buffer (E rows) row by row according to the sequence from left to right and from top to bottom.
