Description

Sphere decoding detection method and device, electronic equipment and storage medium
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a sphere decoding detection method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium.
Background
In a commonly used Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) detection algorithm, a Maximum Likelihood (ML) detection algorithm has the best performance, but the computation complexity, the modulation order and the number of transmitting antennas are in an exponential relationship, and the implementation on a hardware system is difficult in an actual system. Common detection algorithms with low computational complexity include a zero forcing algorithm and a minimum mean square error algorithm, which are simple to implement but have large performance loss. Therefore, the research focus of the MIMO detection algorithm is focused on: how to reduce the complexity of algorithm implementation and reach or approach the detection performance of the ML algorithm.
The computation complexity of the Sphere Decoding (SD) algorithm is much less than that of the ML detection algorithm, but the performance is closest to that of the ML detection algorithm, and the algorithm is an ideal signal detection algorithm. The detection principle of the sphere decoding algorithm is that the optimal signal point is found by searching all constellation point grids in a hypersphere with a certain radius. The standard sphere decoding detection algorithm has relatively high implementation complexity and is not beneficial to hardware implementation.
The embodiment of the related patent discloses a signal search sphere decoding algorithm of an MIMO receiver with fixed complexity, which traverses all constellation points under different modulation modes by using the results of Cholesky decomposition and zero forcing equalization to perform iterative search, calculates the accumulated Euclidean distance and then calculates the corresponding soft bit information. The patent needs to search all constellation points in a traversing way to obtain an optimal path, and the hardware realization recurrence degree is high.
The related patent embodiment discloses a spherical decoding detection method based on a super-large-scale integrated circuit, which comprises the steps of utilizing configured search nodes, starting from a first layer to perform table lookup sorting, reserving the node with the minimum Euclidean distance, then sequentially performing table lookup sorting on the other layers, reserving the search node with the minimum weight of the current layer, and outputting a decoding result when the last layer is searched. The result of the patent embodiment only contains the symbol information of the modulation result, and the utilization rate of the channel information is low.
The related patent embodiment also discloses a spherical decoding detection method based on depth-first search, wherein the upper limit of a total search node and the upper limits of search nodes in different layers need to be configured in the search process, then the search is carried out layer by layer according to the depth-first principle, the current search radius is updated to the weight of the searched bottommost node, and the decoding result is output until the number of the searched summary points is equal to the upper limit value or the search layer cannot continuously execute the search. The bottom layer search weight of the patent embodiment is continuously updated, the subsequent search range is updated accordingly, and the calculation amount during hardware implementation cannot be fixed.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
It should be noted that although functional blocks are partitioned in a schematic diagram of an apparatus and a logical order is shown in a flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in a different order than the partitioning of blocks in the apparatus or the order in the flowchart. The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims, and the drawings described above, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of the invention only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
First, several terms referred to in the present application are resolved:
multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO): the antenna diversity technology is an antenna system which uses a plurality of antennas at a transmitting end and a receiving end and forms a plurality of channels between transmitting and receiving; the core principle of the MIMO system is as follows: the spatial degrees of freedom provided by the multiple transmitting antennas and the multiple receiving antennas are utilized to improve the spectrum efficiency in wireless communication, so as to improve the transmission rate and improve the communication quality.
Maximum Likelihood (ML): the ML detection algorithm takes into account the effect of time dispersion on the received signal and uses the entire received signal to determine the most likely transmitted sequence.
Log likelihood Ratio (Log likelihood Ratio, LLR): are commonly used for soft decoding.
Sphere Decoding (SD): the SD algorithm is relatively close to the ML algorithm, the calculation complexity is smaller than that of the ML algorithm, and the complexity of the SD algorithm depends on the size of the search radius; the general principle of SD is: the method comprises the steps of presetting a ball with a received signal as a circle center in a received signal space, mapping the ball into an ellipsoid in a transmitted signal space, searching possible transmitted signal points in the ellipsoid, and contracting the preset ball by taking the distance between the mapped point of the signal point and the received signal as a radius once a transmitted signal is found, so that subsequent searching can be performed in a smaller atmosphere.
Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA): as a semi-custom circuit in the field of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs).
Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC): refers to an integrated circuit designed and manufactured according to the requirements of a specific user and the needs of a specific electronic system, and an ASIC design can be performed by using a CPLD (Complex Programming logic device) and an FPGA (field programmable logic array).
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM): it is a vector modulation, the input bits are first mapped (usually using gray code) onto a complex plane (constellation) to form complex modulation symbols, and then I, Q components of the symbols (corresponding to the real and imaginary parts of the complex plane, i.e. horizontal and vertical directions) are modulated by amplitude modulation onto two carriers (cos wt and sin wt) which are orthogonal to each other (time domain orthogonal), respectively. Thus doubling its spectral utilization compared to Amplitude Modulation (AM). QAM is a technique of amplitude and phase joint modulation, and uses the amplitude and phase of a carrier to transmit information bits, so that a higher frequency band utilization rate can be achieved under the condition of the same minimum distance, and currently, QAM reaches 1024-QAM (i.e., 1024 sampling points) to the maximum. The higher the number of samples, the higher its transmission efficiency, for example, a 16-QAM signal with 16 samples, each sample representing one vector state, 16-QAM with 16 states, one of the 16 states specified per 4-bit binary number, 16 combinations of carriers and phases specified in 16-QAM, 4 bits transmitted per symbol and period of 16-QAM.
Through the accumulated Euclidean distance sum of each path and the corresponding constellation point calculated in the hard judgment searching step, the constellation point corresponding to the minimum value of all the accumulated Euclidean distances is the global shortest path of the hard judgment algorithm, namely, the hard judgment global optimal path, and then the step 204 is executed by using the hard judgment global optimal path, namely, the hard judgment global optimal path is used for further updating the hard judgment shortest Euclidean distance in the soft judgment constellation points to obtain the soft judgment shortest Euclidean distance, updating the reversed polarity bit matrix and updating the shortest Euclidean distance of the reversed polarity bit matrix, so that the channel information is fully utilized, and the decoding performance is improved.
The application scenario of the embodiment of the disclosure is applied to an MIMO system, wherein a search tree is constructed to perform hard judgment and soft judgment, so that the search paths of constellation points in the whole process of hard judgment and soft judgment are controlled through the search tree, the sum of the accumulated euclidean distances of each path calculated in the step of hard judgment search and the corresponding constellation points are used, the constellation point corresponding to the minimum value of all the accumulated euclidean distances is the hard judgment global optimal path, and then the hard judgment shortest euclidean distance is further updated in the soft judgment constellation points by using the hard judgment global optimal path to obtain the soft judgment shortest euclidean distance, update the reverse polarity bit matrix, and update the shortest euclidean distance of the reverse polarity bit matrix, thereby fully utilizing the channel environment and improving the decoding performance. Referring to fig. 1, schematically, a search tree according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is provided, where a highest layer is an nth layer, a next highest layer is an N-1 th layer, the N-1 th layer includes two nodes, which are a node 1 and a node 2, respectively, and the node 1 and the node 2 of the N-1 th layer are child nodes of the nth layer; if N is 4, it is defined that all nodes at the highest layer 4 below are child nodes at the layer 4, and for example, the child nodes at the layer 4 include: nodes 1 and 2 of layer 3, nodes 3, 4 and 5 of layer 2, and all nodes of layer 1 (not shown).
