Detailed Description
As described in the background, there is a need for a method capable of efficiently testing interference immunity of a communication terminal.
The inventor of the present invention finds, through research, that in the prior art, a terminal tester is generally adopted to test the anti-interference performance of a communication terminal. Specifically, the communication terminal to be tested is in a signaling mode, the terminal tester can transmit a radio frequency signal with fading characteristics to the communication terminal to be tested, and a tester manually configures parameters of the terminal tester so as to establish communication connection between the mobile terminal and the terminal tester, so that a real communication system is simulated. In the communication process of the communication terminal and the terminal tester, the communication terminal sends the error rate of the received signal to the terminal tester, and the terminal tester analyzes the anti-interference performance of the communication terminal by analyzing the error rate. Because the testing method depends on the terminal tester and the parameters of the terminal tester need to be manually adjusted by a tester so that the communication terminal and the terminal tester can be connected for testing, the testing process is complex, the testing cost is high and the efficiency is low.
In order to solve the technical problem, after a communication terminal receives a useful signal and an interference signal, a received signal strength indication of the communication terminal is obtained, if the received signal strength indication belongs to a preset received signal strength indication range, the communication state of the communication terminal in a signaling mode can be simulated, then an orthogonal signal obtained based on the useful signal and the interference signal is obtained from the communication terminal, the signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal is calculated, and the signal-to-noise ratio is compared with a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold value to obtain a test result. Therefore, the scheme of the embodiment of the invention can efficiently test the anti-interference performance of the communication terminal.
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, fig. 1 is a schematic view of a test scenario of a test method for a communication terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention. The test method may be performed by a control terminal, which may be any appropriate terminal having data receiving and processing capabilities, such as, but not limited to, a computer, a spectrum analyzer, etc. The communication terminal may be a terminal serving as a receiver, and specifically, the communication terminal may be a User Equipment (e.g., a mobile phone, an IPAD, etc.) or a network side device (e.g., a base station, etc.), but the communication terminal is not limited thereto as long as a communication function can be realized by an appropriate communication protocol (e.g., LTE, 5G, etc.).
A non-limiting description is given below with reference to fig. 1 to a test scenario of a test method for a communication terminal in the embodiment of the present invention.
A first signal source 11 can provide a useful signal to a communication terminal 14 to be tested, and a second signal source 12 can provide an interference signal to the communication terminal 14. The useful signal is used for simulating a signal carrying data or information, and may be, for example, a single tone signal in a preset frequency band, where the preset frequency band may be determined according to a standard supported by the communication terminal 14 to be tested or a frequency band in which the communication terminal receives a signal in a signaling mode. For example, the preset frequency band may be an N41 frequency band, the interference signal is used to simulate a noise signal other than a useful signal, and may be a multi-tone signal in a frequency band other than the preset frequency band, or may be a multi-tone signal in the preset frequency band, and more specifically, a bandwidth of the multi-tone signal may be 5 mhz.
The useful signal provided by the first signal source 11 and the interference signal provided by the second signal source 12 may be transmitted to the power splitter 13, and the power splitter 13 may combine the useful signal and the interference signal and transmit the combined signal to the communication terminal 14.
The signal provided by the power divider 13 to the communication terminal 14 can be divided into two paths, and the communication terminal can perform carrier modulation on the two paths of signals respectively, so that the two paths of carriers are orthogonal to each other to obtain an orthogonal signal.
The control terminal 15 may be connected to the communication terminal 14, and the control terminal 15 may obtain a Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) from the communication terminal 14 and may also obtain an orthogonal Signal from the communication terminal 14. In one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the received signal Strength Indication may be a wideband received signal Strength Indication (WBRSSI), and the control terminal 15 may be a computer, a spectrum analyzer, or the like, but is not limited thereto. It should be noted that the orthogonal signal obtained in the embodiment of the present invention refers to an orthogonal signal obtained by modulating a signal obtained by combining a useful signal and an interference signal.
Further, after obtaining the received signal strength indication and the orthogonal signal, the control terminal 15 may analyze the received signal strength indication and the orthogonal signal to obtain a test result. For example, the rssi may be compared with a preset rssi range, a spectrum analysis may be performed on the orthogonal signal, and the like, but is not limited thereto.
Further, the control terminal 15 may be connected to the first signal source 11 and the second signal source 12, and the control terminal 15 may generate a waveform file of the desired signal and a waveform file of the interference signal, and may import the waveform file of the desired signal to the first signal source 11 and the waveform file of the interference signal to the second signal source 12, thereby setting parameters such as signal strength and frequency of the desired signal and the interference signal to be provided to the communication terminal 14.
It should be noted that, during the test, communication terminal 14 is set to a Non-Signaling Mode (Non-Signaling Mode), and in the Non-Signaling Mode, control terminal 15 can only obtain received signal strength indication, orthogonal signals, and the like from communication terminal 14 to measure various indexes of communication terminal 14, and does not send signals to communication terminal 14 to control communication terminal 14.
It should be further noted that the communication terminal 14 may include a radio frequency chip (not shown), and the anti-interference performance of the communication terminal obtained by the test method according to the embodiment of the present invention actually embodies the anti-interference performance of the radio frequency chip in the communication terminal.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for testing a communication terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention. The test method of the communication terminal shown in fig. 2 may include the steps of:
step S201: acquiring a received signal strength indication of the communication terminal, and acquiring an orthogonal signal from the communication terminal if the received signal strength indication belongs to a preset received signal strength indication range, wherein the orthogonal signal is obtained by the communication terminal based on a useful signal and an interference signal provided to the communication terminal;
step S202: and calculating the signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal, and comparing the signal-to-noise ratio with a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold value to obtain a test result.
In the specific implementation of step S201, the first signal source provides a useful signal to the communication terminal, the second signal source provides an interference signal to the communication terminal, and the useful signal and the interference signal are combined and transmitted to the communication terminal. Therefore, the scheme of the embodiment of the invention can be applied to a scene (also called a blocking scene) with an interference signal when the communication terminal is tested.
Specifically, the useful signal may be a single tone signal in a preset frequency band, and the interference signal may be a multi-tone signal in a frequency band other than the preset frequency band, or a multi-tone signal in the preset frequency band. In the test start stage, the signal strength of the interference signal and the signal strength of the useful signal respectively have initial values, and the initial values of the signal strength of the interference signal and the signal strength of the useful signal may be set according to a 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) protocol, for example, but not limited thereto, the initial value of the signal strength of the interference signal may be-20 dBm. That is, the test method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be used to test whether the communication terminal can demodulate normally under the interference signal whose signal strength is the initial value.
Further, after the useful signal and the interference signal are combined and transmitted to the communication terminal, the communication terminal obtains a corresponding orthogonal signal based on the useful signal and the interference signal, for example, a radio frequency chip in the communication terminal may modulate the combined signal to obtain the corresponding orthogonal signal.
Further, after the useful signal and the interference signal are combined and transmitted to the communication terminal, the control terminal may obtain a received signal strength indication of the communication terminal, compare the received signal strength indication with a preset received signal strength indication range, and if the received signal strength indication belongs to the preset received signal strength indication range, may obtain an orthogonal signal and analyze the orthogonal signal. The received signal strength indication range belonging to the preset received signal strength indication range may be pre-stored in the control terminal.
Specifically, the upper limit of the preset rssi range may be a preset threshold, and the preset threshold may be determined according to a parameter of the rf chip. In one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the preset threshold value may be 4 dB.
Further, if the rssi does not fall within the rssi range, the signal strength of the desired signal may need to be adjusted so that the rssi falls within a predetermined rssi range. It should be noted that, in the process of adjusting the useful signal, the signal strength of the interference signal remains unchanged.
Specifically, the control terminal may calculate an intensity adjustment value of the desired signal and adjust the signal intensity of the desired signal according to the intensity adjustment value of the desired signal. The calculation method of the intensity adjustment value may be any appropriate method in the prior art. More specifically, the control terminal may generate a corresponding waveform file according to the calculated strength adjustment value of the useful signal and the frequency and phase of the useful signal, and transmit the waveform file to the first signal source to control the first signal source to adjust the useful signal according to the strength adjustment value of the useful signal, where the frequency and phase are not changed in the process of adjusting the useful signal.
Further, after the signal strength of the useful signal is adjusted, the received signal strength indication of the communication terminal is obtained again, the received signal strength indication is compared with the preset received signal strength indication range again, if the received signal strength indication after the useful signal adjustment belongs to the preset received signal strength indication range, the useful signal is not adjusted again, and the control terminal obtains the orthogonal signal again and analyzes the orthogonal signal. If the received signal strength indication after the useful signal adjustment still does not belong to the preset received signal strength indication range, recalculating the strength adjustment value of the useful signal, and adjusting the useful signal according to the calculated strength adjustment value until the received signal strength indication belongs to the preset received signal strength indication range.
In one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, each time the desired signal is adjusted, the gain indication may be determined, and the signal strength of the desired signal may be determined based on the gain indication. It is understood that the Gain indication is used to indicate a signal Gain of an automatic Gain Control (Auto Gain Control) circuit in the communication terminal, the received signal strength indication is generally in a proportional relationship with the signal Gain of the automatic Gain Control circuit in the communication terminal, and adjusting the signal Gain adjusts the received signal strength indication.
Specifically, when the useful signal is adjusted the ith time, the gain instruction when the useful signal is adjusted is calculated and determined from the gain instruction before adjustment and the received signal strength instruction, the control terminal may store a correspondence relationship between the gain instruction and the signal gain in advance, determine the signal gain of the automatic gain control circuit in the communication terminal when the useful signal is adjusted the ith time according to the correspondence relationship between the gain instruction and the signal gain, and then determine the signal strength input to the communication terminal according to the signal gain, and since the signal strength of the interference signal is not changed when the useful signal is adjusted, the strength adjustment value of the useful signal when the useful signal is adjusted the ith time can be determined.
Therefore, in the solution of the embodiment of the present invention, the control terminal compares the received signal strength indication with the preset received signal strength indication range, and adjusts the signal strength of the useful signal according to the comparison result, so that the received signal strength indication of the communication terminal belongs to the preset received signal strength indication range, thereby simulating the process of dynamically adjusting the gain of the automatic control gain circuit in the communication terminal in the signaling mode.
In one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, if the rssi is greater than the upper limit of the rssi range, the gain indication at the i-th useful signal adjustment can be calculated using the following formula: gainindexi=gainindexi-1-fix(rssii-1/3)-1;
Wherein, gainindexiGainindex, the gain indication when the useful signal is adjusted for the ith timei-1An indication of the gain before the i-th adjustment of the useful signal, rssii-1And adjusting the received signal strength indication before the useful signal for the ith time, wherein i is a positive integer.
Specifically, when the gain indication is gainindexi-1When the received signal strength indication of the communication terminal is rssii-1Since a change in the received signal strength indication of 3dB corresponds to a change in the gain indication of 1dB, the received signal strength indication rssii-1Dividing the indication by 3, rounding the result to 0, and subtracting 1 from the gain indication before the i-th adjustment of the useful signal to obtain the gain indication gainindex when the useful signal is adjusted in order to reduce the number of adjustments while providing the fault tolerance rateiThen, the signal gain of the ith adjusting useful signal can be determined according to the corresponding relation between the gain indication and the signal gain, and the intensity adjustment of the useful signal can be determined according to the signal gainAnd (4) integer value. Compared with a method for linearly adjusting gain indication, the scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention can reduce the adjustment times of the useful signal and improve the test efficiency.
In the specific implementation of step S202, after the control terminal acquires the orthogonal Signal from the communication terminal, a spectrogram of the orthogonal Signal may be obtained, and a spectrum analysis is performed on the orthogonal Signal according to the spectrogram, so as to obtain a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of the orthogonal Signal. It should be noted that the control terminal may also directly calculate the obtained orthogonal signal to obtain the signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal, and the method for determining the signal-to-noise ratio is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 3 shows a spectrum diagram of an orthogonal signal in the embodiment of the present invention, and the following non-limiting description of step S202 is made in conjunction with fig. 3.
Since the frequencies of the useful signal and the interference signal are preset, the strength of the signal 1 after the useful signal passes through the automatic gain circuit in the communication terminal and the strength of the signal 2 after the interference signal passes through the automatic gain circuit in the communication terminal can be respectively determined in the spectrogram and can be respectively recorded as the strength of the useful signal and the strength of the interference noise. In addition, for the communication terminal, besides the noise formed by the interference signal, the spectrogram also includes direct current noise 3, in-band noise 4, phase noise (not shown), and the like, and the intensities of the above various noises can be determined in the spectrogram respectively. The signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal can be obtained by subtracting the intensity of various noises such as the interference noise intensity, the direct current noise intensity, and the phase noise intensity from the useful signal intensity. Specifically, the signal-to-noise ratio SNR is Psignal-PnoiseWherein, PsignalFor useful signal strength, PnoiseThe intensity of various noises.
Further, the signal-to-noise ratio of the obtained orthogonal signal is compared with a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold (also referred to as a demodulation threshold of sensitivity), and then a test result can be obtained. Specifically, if the signal-to-noise ratio threshold is greater than the signal-to-noise ratio threshold, it indicates that the communication terminal can still perform normal demodulation under the interference signal whose signal intensity is the initial value, and if the signal-to-noise ratio threshold does not exceed the signal-to-noise ratio threshold, it indicates that the communication terminal cannot perform normal demodulation under the interference signal whose signal intensity is the initial value. Therefore, the scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention can effectively test the anti-interference performance of the communication terminal. In one non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the signal-to-noise threshold may be 1 dB.
In a non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, if the snr threshold is greater than the snr threshold, the control terminal may further perform a sounding bottom test, that is, may further determine the maximum interference signal strength that the communication terminal can bear within the preset frequency band.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a maximum interference signal strength that can be borne by the communication terminal within a preset frequency band. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
step S401: determining a strength adjustment value of the interference signal;
step S402: acquiring a received signal strength indication after the interference signal is adjusted, wherein the interference signal is adjusted according to a strength adjustment value of the interference signal;
step S403: when the received signal strength indication belongs to a preset received signal strength indication range, the orthogonal signal is acquired from the communication terminal again;
step S404: calculating the signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal;
step S405: and judging whether the signal-to-noise ratio is greater than a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold value, if so, returning to the step S401 until the signal-to-noise ratio does not exceed the signal-to-noise ratio threshold value.
In a specific implementation of step S401, the control terminal may calculate a strength adjustment value of the interference signal, and adjust the signal strength of the interference signal according to the strength adjustment value of the interference signal. More specifically, the control terminal may generate a corresponding waveform file according to the calculated intensity adjustment value of the interference signal and the frequency and phase of the interference signal, and send the waveform file to the second signal source to control the second signal source to adjust the interference signal according to the intensity adjustment value of the interference signal. When the interference signal is adjusted, the frequency and the phase of the interference signal are not changed.
In a non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the control terminal may pre-store interference levels corresponding to interference signals with different signal strengths, and when adjusting the interference signal n times, the control terminal may determine the interference level of the interference signal first, and then determine an intensity adjustment value of the interference signal according to the interference level.
Specifically, the interference level at each adjustment of the interference signal can be calculated using the following formula:
Interference_leveln=Interference_leveln-1+fix(R-rssin-1)-1;
wherein, Interference _ levelnInterference _ level for the Interference level at the nth adjustment of the Interference signaln-1Adjusting the interference level before the interference signal for the nth time, wherein R is the preset threshold value rssin-1And adjusting the received signal strength indication before the interference signal for the nth time, wherein n is a positive integer. That is, when the Interference level of the Interference signal is Interferencen-1And adjusting the signal strength of the useful signal to ensure that the received signal strength indication does not exceed a preset threshold value, wherein the received signal strength indication of the communication terminal is rssin-1Subtracting the received signal strength rssi from a predetermined threshold value Rn-1The difference value of (2) is rounded close to 0, and in order to improve the fault tolerance and reduce the adjustment times, the Interference _ level is measured at the current Interference leveln-1And adding the rounding result and then subtracting 1 to obtain a new interference level, and then determining the intensity adjustment value for adjusting the interference signal according to the corresponding relation between the interference level and the signal intensity of the interference signal.
For specific contents of step S402 to step S405, reference may be made to the related description above regarding fig. 1 to fig. 3, and details are not repeated herein.
It should be noted that in the specific implementation of step S405, when the signal-to-noise ratio does not exceed the signal-to-noise ratio threshold, the signal strength of the current interference signal is the maximum interference signal strength of the communication terminal. Further, after obtaining the maximum interference signal strength of the communication terminal in the preset frequency band, the control terminal may further determine, according to the maximum interference signal strength, a neighboring Channel Selectivity (ACS) of the communication terminal in the preset frequency band.
Specifically, the initial interference signal strength corresponding to the preset frequency band may be determined according to the communication protocol standard, and a difference obtained by subtracting the initial interference signal strength from the obtained maximum interference signal strength is the adjacent channel selectivity of the communication terminal in the preset frequency band. For example, the preset frequency band for the communication terminal to communicate with is N41 frequency band, the initial interference signal strength is-67 dBm, and if the maximum interference signal strength of the communication terminal is determined to be-26.2 dBm by the above method, the adjacent channel selectivity of the communication terminal is-26.2 dBm- (-67dBm) ═ 40.8 dB.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 shows a testing apparatus of a communication terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the apparatus may include: an acquisition module 51 and a calculation module 52.
The obtaining module 51 is configured to obtain a received signal strength indication of the communication terminal, and if the received signal strength indication does not exceed a preset threshold, obtain an orthogonal signal from the communication terminal; the calculation module 52 is configured to calculate a signal-to-noise ratio of the orthogonal signal, and compare the signal-to-noise ratio with a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold to obtain a test result; wherein the orthogonal signal is derived by the communication terminal based on a desired signal and an interfering signal provided to the communication terminal.
