Description

Channel modeling method combining ray tracing method and time domain finite difference method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of radio frequency wireless communication, and particularly relates to a channel modeling method combining ray tracing and a time domain finite difference method.
Background
The wireless signal usually reaches the receiving end from the transmitting end through a series of direct, reflection, diffraction, scattering or transmission in a complex propagation environment, so that large-scale fading caused by path loss and shadow fading and small-scale fading caused by multipath effect can be generated. In order to better evaluate a wireless communication system, a wireless channel needs to be modeled, that is, the channel needs to be summarized, abstracted and simulated to find the propagation law of electromagnetic waves in different typical scenes. Due to the consideration of development cost and development period, simulation is generally adopted when channel modeling is carried out. The technologies with representative significance are ray tracing technology and FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain), large-scale or small-scale fading calculation parameters are obtained through simulation of electromagnetic wave propagation paths, and channel modeling is performed according to the calculation parameters.
The ray tracing technology is one of deterministic channel modeling modes, and can predict all effective electromagnetic wave propagation paths between a wireless channel transceiver and a receiving end, and can directly obtain various characteristic parameters in the electromagnetic wave propagation process, for example, characteristic parameters such as amplitude, angle, phase, time delay and the like can be obtained for each path so as to carry out analysis and calculation, and in addition, a final synthesis result can be obtained by synthesizing all propagation paths at a receiving end by combining an antenna pattern and the bandwidth of a system. Meanwhile, the complexity of the ray tracing technology is that the maximum reflection and diffraction times of the path are required to be set in the ray tracing process, the accuracy is generally higher as the times are larger, but the calculation complexity is increased if the reflection and diffraction times of each path are increased due to the larger number of the multiple paths. On the other hand, if a higher calculation rate and a lower complexity are pursued, tiny objects or materials with obviously differentiated dielectric coefficients need to be ignored during modeling, and meanwhile, factors such as scattering caused by moving vehicles and pedestrians and tree sheltering are not considered, so that certain influence is exerted on accuracy.
FDTD solves maxwell's rotation equations in a differential format, and can solve the differential equations in the time domain through cross iteration. The finite difference time domain method can analyze the influence caused by scattering, diffraction and refraction phenomena by calculating the field values of all grid nodes, because of the characteristics, the FDTD is more suitable for the scene of interaction of electromagnetic waves and complex media, and the ray tracing method is more accurate in predicting the propagation of the electromagnetic waves in an indoor large-size environment, but is more difficult to predict the scattered field of an indoor complex and lossy structure, so that the method cannot analyze the whole indoor scene and is usually combined with the FDTD for use.

Meanwhile, the delta is determined by considering the geometric dimension of a fine structure on a target, and adopting a sub-grid technology for an object with a structure such as a slot, a thin plate and a thin coating. Assuming that the truncation boundary of the scatterer in the virtual space is 0 < x < a, 0 < y < b, 0 < z < d in the rectangular spatial coordinate system, the electric field value on the absorption edge interface at the truncation boundary of the virtual space is as follows:

In selecting the profile position and the type value point, attention should be paid to proper density, and in the place where the curve of the target profile changes steeply, the profile position and the type value point should be selected close to each other so as to express the geometric profile more accurately.
And S53, FDTD subdivision. After the model points of different parts are selected and the description file is established, the FDTD mesh subdivision can be carried out on the target object, and the mesh size is

The near-far field extrapolation calculation shown in the figure is performed after each time step is completed in the transient FDTD, and after the process reaches a steady state in the time harmonic field.
Further: in the step 6, the point virtual space is received, and the contents of the intersection point position, the arrival angle, the field intensity and the like are stored and processed as the excitation source of the FDTD during ray tracing.
