step 101: extracting all row coordinates of all possible non-zero values in a first column of an equivalent channel matrix, extracting all column coordinates corresponding to all possible non-zero values in the rows corresponding to all row coordinates, generating protection coordinates, and generating a signal transmission sequence of a transmitting end according to preset pilot frequency coordinates and the protection coordinates.

In one embodiment, since in the affine frequency division multiplexing communication system, each column of each row in the equivalent channel matrix has q+1 possible non-zero values, and since the coordinates of the possible non-zero values in the equivalent channel matrix show cyclic characteristics in both the row direction and the column direction, it is indicated that each column of each row in the equivalent channel matrix contains all channel state information, wherein the equivalent channel matrix is schematically shown in fig. 3. Therefore, in this embodiment, all row coordinates of the rows in which all possible non-zero values in the first column of the equivalent channel matrix are located are extracted based on the cyclic features of the equivalent channel matrix, where all possible non-zero values in the first column of the equivalent channel matrix are shifted by the maximum doppler shift α max The number of symbol points N and the parameter Q of a single column are determined, as in FIG. 3, by determining that all possible non-zero values in the first column of the equivalent channel matrix are (0, alpha) max )∪(N-Q+α max ,N-1)。

In an embodiment, after extracting all row coordinates of rows where all possible non-zero values in the first column of the equivalent channel matrix are located, extracting all row coordinates corresponding to all the extracted rows again, extracting all possible non-zero values in the row coordinates corresponding to all the rows, and setting column coordinates corresponding to all possible non-zero values in the row coordinates as protection coordinates.
In one embodiment, the number of symbols of the signal transmission sequence is obtained, wherein each symbol number corresponds to a coordinate; setting the zeroth coordinate of the signal transmission sequence as a pilot frequency coordinate, setting a first pilot frequency at the pilot frequency coordinate, correspondingly setting the protection coordinate in the signal transmission sequence, setting a first protection symbol at the protection coordinate, generating a first signal transmission sequence, and enabling a subsequent receiving end to avoid interference of other symbols when receiving the pilot frequency based on the set first protection symbol; in the diagram, as shown in fig. 4, P is a pilot, and 0 is a guard symbol.
Step 102: and transmitting the signal transmission sequence to a receiving end so that the receiving end analyzes the signal transmission sequence to obtain a signal receiving sequence.
In one embodiment, the number of pilots and the number of symbol points N satisfy the following relationship:
N P (2l max α max +2α max +l max +1)≤N;
wherein N is p Is the number of pilot frequency, N is the number of symbol points, alpha max For maximum Doppler shift, l max Is the maximum delay.
In an embodiment, column coordinates of each pilot frequency in the signal transmission sequence are obtained, column information of a corresponding column in the equivalent channel matrix is extracted based on the column coordinates, and a group of pilot frequency signals are generated; specifically, if the position of the first pilot frequency in the signal transmission sequence is located at the zeroth position of the signal transmission sequence, correspondingly extracting column information of the zeroth column in the equivalent channel matrix, and generating a group of pilot frequency signals corresponding to the pilot frequency.
In an embodiment, if two first pilots exist in the signal transmission sequence, column information corresponding to two columns in the equivalent channel matrix is extracted, and a set of pilot signals corresponding to the two first pilots are generated respectively.
In one embodiment, the number of pilots in the signal transmission sequence is obtained, and a corresponding number of sets of pilot signals are set in the signal reception sequence based on the number of pilots. Specifically, after receiving the signal transmission sequence, the receiving end traverses the signal transmission sequence to obtain the number of pilot frequencies in the signal transmission sequence, and if the number of pilot frequencies in the signal transmission sequence is one, the receiving end sets a group of pilot signals in the signal reception sequence, wherein the number of the pilot signals in the group is Q+1; if the number of pilot frequencies in the signal transmission sequence is two, the receiving end sets 2q+2 pilot signals in the signal receiving sequence, and so on. And if two first pilots exist in the signal transmission sequence, extracting column information of two corresponding columns in the equivalent channel matrix, respectively generating a group of pilot signals corresponding to the two first pilots,
in an embodiment, when traversing the signal transmission sequence and acquiring the pilot frequency in the signal transmission sequence, the receiving end also needs to acquire the position of the pilot frequency in the signal transmission sequence, and based on the position of each pilot frequency in the signal transmission sequence, set each group of pilot frequency signals at the position of each pilot frequency, so as to obtain the signal receiving sequence.
In one embodiment, since the number of the symbol points forming the signal transmission sequence is the same as the number of the symbol points forming the channel receiving sequence, when the receiving end converts the pilot frequency in the pilot signal transmission sequence into q+1 pilot frequency symbols in the signal receiving sequence, the symbols on both sides of the position where the pilot frequency is located are occupied and converted into pilot frequency symbols; fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a signal transmission and reception sequence of two pilots; when the number of pilots in the signal transmission sequence is 2, the signal transmission sequence diagram of the 2 pilots is shown in fig. 5 (a), and the signal reception sequence diagram of the two pilots generated by the receiving end is shown in fig. 5 (b), where Δ is the received pilot symbol.
Step 103: and screening the acquired pilot symbols in the signal receiving sequence according to a preset threshold value, and mapping the screened pilot symbols to obtain channel estimation information.
In one embodiment, the noise variance N is used to determine the noise variance 0 The normalized threshold value zeta judges whether a certain path in the channel exists or not; specifically, the pilot symbol energy of each pilot symbol is obtained through calculation, wherein the pilot symbol energy is the square of the absolute value of the pilot symbol, all the pilot symbol energies are respectively compared with a set threshold value, whether the pilot symbol energy is larger than the threshold value is judged, if yes, the pilot symbol energy is considered to have a path division, the pilot symbol is reserved, if no, the pilot symbol is considered to have no path divisionAnd dividing the paths and rejecting the pilot frequency symbols.
In an embodiment, since the threshold has a great influence on the accuracy of channel estimation, if the threshold is set too high, some weak sub-paths are not estimated; if the threshold value is set too large, some paths which are not actually present are misjudged to be present, and the accuracy of channel estimation is reduced in both cases, so that the subsequent detection performance is reduced. Therefore, in this embodiment, the threshold value is determined by the channel, and in actual use, dynamic adjustment is required according to the communication performance result to adapt to the changed channel. Specifically, as the pilot symbol energy increases, a larger threshold value is used to reduce the false positive probability; as pilot symbol energy decreases, a smaller threshold is used to reduce the missed probability.
In an embodiment, each pilot symbol is mapped through a preset mapping table, where the preset mapping table provides a conversion relationship between a DAFT domain expression and a delay-doppler domain expression of a channel, and based on the mapping, a delay-doppler characteristic of the channel is obtained, and meanwhile, based on the delay-doppler characteristic of the channel, channel estimation is completed.
As an illustration in this embodiment, a pilot is placed in the 0 th position in the signal transmission sequence, and the position m of the received pilot symbol corresponding to the pilot, and its corresponding complex gain h i Doppler shift of alpha i And a time delay of l i As shown in fig. 6, wherein fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a mapping table when the pilot is placed at the 0 th position of the signaling sequence.
In an embodiment, based on the relation between the signal transmission sequence x and the signal reception sequence y in the discrete affine fourier transform domain of the transmitting end and the receiving end mentioned in step 101, when the pilot is placed at other positions in the signal transmission sequence, the preset mapping table is adaptively modified, so as to obtain the mapping table corresponding to each pilot.
As an illustration in this embodiment, a channel estimation method provided in this embodiment may be appliedIn a multi-antenna scenario, i.e., a multiple-input multiple-output scenario; at a transmitting end of a multi-antenna scene, placing pilot symbols at specific positions and surrounding the pilot symbols with a proper amount of protection symbols according to the signal transmission sequence generation mode in the step 101 for each transmitting antenna in the transmitting end, and placing data symbols at blank coordinates of the signal transmission sequence, wherein the placement positions of the pilot symbols in each transmitting antenna are different; and at the receiving end, each receiving antenna is set according to the number of the transmitting antennas in the transmitting end and performs channel estimation according to the corresponding number of the received pilot symbols, as shown in fig. 8, fig. 8 is a signal transmitting and receiving schematic diagram of a 3x3 multiple input multiple output affine frequency division multiplexing system, fig. 8 (a) (b) (c) shows the transmitting schematic diagrams of three transmitting antennas, and fig. 8 (d) shows the receiving schematic diagram of one receiving antenna. And the number N of the transmitting antennas of any transmitting end t >1.

O AFDM =(N t +1)Q+N t =2N t l max α max +2l max α max +2N t α max +N t l max +2α max +l max +N t
as an illustration in this embodiment, the channel estimation method provided in this embodiment may also be applied to a multi-user scenario, for example, in a single-antenna multi-user uplink scenario, where the arrangement of pilot coordinates of different users is the same as the above-mentioned arrangement in the multi-antenna scenario, and each user occupies a part of the remaining blank coordinates to be used for placing its own data symbol, and each part is separated by a guard symbol to avoid inter-user interference; in the single antenna multi-user uplink and downlink scenario, only one pilot frequency is needed to be used for a transmitting antenna at the transmitting end of the base station in the downlink transmission process, because all users can utilize the received pilot frequency symbol corresponding to the pilot frequency to perform channel estimation, and the downlink scenario is similar to the uplink scenario, and the protection symbol is needed to be used for spacing data transmitted to different users so as to avoid inter-user interference. As shown in fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of uplink/downlink signal communication between multiple users of a single antenna, fig. 9 (a) (b) (c) shows a schematic diagram of uplink communication between three users of a single antenna and a base station, and fig. 9 (d) shows a schematic diagram of downlink communication between a single antenna base station and three users.

In an embodiment, the number of the second pilots set at the blank coordinates may be one or more, and for each second pilot set at the blank coordinates, Q guard symbols are set at the blank coordinates on both sides of the second pilot, and each second pilot is spaced by the guard symbols, so as to avoid interference between signals.
In this embodiment, since the accuracy of the channel estimation performance is reduced under the condition of high noise, an additional second pilot symbol is placed at the blank coordinates other than the pilot coordinates and the first guard coordinates to perform multiple channel estimation, so as to weaken the influence of noise on the accuracy of channel estimation, and improve the accuracy of subsequent channel estimation.
In summary, according to the channel estimation methods provided in embodiments 1 and 2, based on the cycle characteristics of the equivalent channel matrix, by obtaining possible non-zero values in the first column of the equivalent channel matrix, the pilot frequency and the protection symbol positions in the signal transmission sequence of the transmitting end are reasonably set, so that the receiving end receives the pilot frequency symbols and avoids interference of other symbols, and at the same time, the receiving end screens the pilot frequency symbols according to the threshold value after receiving the pilot frequency symbols, so as to improve the subsequent detection performance, and performs mapping processing on the screened pilot frequency symbols, so that channel estimation can be completed, and the channel estimation accuracy and the channel estimation efficiency are improved.
