In some embodiments, the method may be performed by a network node; in other embodiments, the method may be performed by a user terminal; in addition, the interaction between the network node and the user terminal can be realized.
Fig. 2 shows a flowchart of an environmental scattering communication method based on a network node in an embodiment of the disclosure, and as shown in fig. 2, the environmental scattering communication method based on a network node provided in the embodiment of the disclosure is applied to a network node, and includes the following steps:
s202, a forwarding beam pattern set is determined, wherein the forwarding beam pattern set comprises at least one forwarding beam pattern.
The network node may be a reconfigurable intelligent surface device, an intelligent reflecting surface device, a network control relay, a wireless forwarding device with a beam forming function, or other devices capable of achieving the same function, and is not limited to the specific technical terms.
In one embodiment, the foregoing repeating beam pattern refers to the electromagnetic field intensity distribution of the repeating beam in space at a specific beam weight matrix, and is the result of the beam weight matrix.
The repeating beam pattern may be, for example, an electromagnetic wave pattern having a specific reflection pattern or transmission pattern formed by adjusting the electromagnetic element, or an electromagnetic wave pattern having a reflection pattern or transmission pattern directed in a specific direction.
For example, according to the direction of the incident signal and the direction of the reflected signal, the initial repeating beam pattern may be calculated according to the plane wave reflection principle of the reflective array, and then at least one repeating beam pattern in the repeating beam pattern set may be determined according to the initial repeating beam pattern.
It should be noted that the number of the repeating beam patterns in the repeating beam pattern set may be determined according to the actual situation.
Beamforming is a process that the correlation of electromagnetic waves causes the change of space field intensity, so that signals in certain areas are enhanced, signals in other areas are weakened, and beams with signals in certain directions being enhanced can be obtained after specific design. In one embodiment, the network node may generate a desired repeating beam pattern by controlling the beamforming weight matrix to repeat the associated data signal such that the signal is enhanced in a particular direction.
S204, modulating the second data signal to the first data signal by adopting at least one forwarding beam pattern according to the first data signal characteristics, and forwarding the modulated data signal to the user terminal so that the user terminal demodulates the modulated data signal to obtain the first data signal and the second data signal transmitted by the network node.
In one embodiment, the second data signal is modulated onto the first data signal in a phase modulated manner. Namely, in the data signal transmission process, the network side equipment transmits a first data signal, and the first data signal is forwarded to the user terminal through the network node; the network node simultaneously superimposes the second data signal while forwarding the first data signal.
It should be noted that, the network node need not obtain the specific content of the first data signal, and only superimposes the second data signal when forwarding the first data signal, and uses the first data signal as the carrier of the second data signal. The phase superposition operation is an operation on a beamforming weight matrix.
It should be noted that the second data signal and the first data signal need to maintain symbol synchronization, so that the user terminal accurately demodulates the received data signal.
The first data signal may be a data signal transmitted by a network side device, and the second data signal is a data signal transmitted by a network node.
The first data signal characteristic may comprise at least one of: cyclic prefix, frame structure, symbol period, symbol position, etc. The cyclic prefix is formed by copying signals at the tail of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, OFDM) symbol to the head, so that the orthogonality of subcarriers can be ensured; the frame is composed of parts performing different functions to facilitate signal transmission; the symbol period is the duration of one OFDM symbol; the symbol positions are used to determine the positions of the symbols in the data signal.
It should be noted that one symbol period of the second data signal is one or more symbol periods of the first data signal. For example, one symbol period of the second data signal is twice the symbol period of the second data signal.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, a forwarding beam pattern set with at least one forwarding beam pattern is determined, at least one forwarding beam pattern is adopted to modulate a second data signal onto a first data signal according to a first data signal characteristic, the modulated data signal is forwarded to a user terminal, after the user terminal demodulates the modulated data signal, the first data signal transmitted by a network side device and the second data signal transmitted by a network node are obtained, the phase modulation characteristic of the network node is utilized, the data signal of the network node or a secondary node can be modulated on a wireless signal of a main system, the transmission performance of the wireless signal of the main system, namely the network side device can be enhanced, the environment scattering communication based on the network node is realized, the cost is reduced, the power consumption is reduced, the deployment is easy, and the network node-side device has the characteristics of high spectrum efficiency and high energy efficiency.
Fig. 3 shows a flow chart of a method for obtaining a set of forwarding beam patterns in an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, in one embodiment, the set of forward beam patterns is determined by: s302, determining an initial forwarding beam pattern, and determining a forwarding beam pattern set according to the initial forwarding beam pattern and preset parameters.
In one embodiment, the initial repeating beam pattern may be calculated according to the incident signal direction and the reflected signal direction and the plane wave reflection principle of the reflective array.
The above-mentioned preset parameters refer to the phase modulation order, and the preset parameters may be determined according to practical situations. The above-mentioned preset parameters may be determined by: the capability of the network node, the configuration of the network side equipment.
The capability of the network node characterizes the phase modulation order that the network node can support; the configuration of the network side device is used for representing the phase modulation order of the network side device configuration network node.
It should be noted that, when the network side device configures the phase modulation order for the network node, the network node determines the preset parameter according to the configuration of the network side device. For example, the phase modulation order that the network node can support is 4, and the network side device configures the phase modulation order of the network node to be 2, where the preset parameter may be 2.
In one embodiment, the network node may determine a set of repeating beam patterns based on the first parameter and the initial repeating beam pattern while modulating the second data signal onto the first data signal in a phase modulated manner using at least one repeating beam pattern of the set of repeating beam patterns based on the first data signal characteristics.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, a forwarding beam pattern set is determined according to the phase modulation order of the pre-configured network node and the initial forwarding beam pattern, so that the network node is introduced into the symbiotic scattering communication system, the environment scattering communication based on the network node is realized, and the frequency spectrum efficiency and the energy efficiency are improved.
Fig. 4 illustrates a flowchart of another method for acquiring a set of forward beam patterns in an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, in one embodiment, the determining the set of forwarding beam patterns according to the initial forwarding beam pattern and the preset parameters in S302 includes:
s3022, determining an adjustable phase value set of the network node according to the preset parameters.
S3024, respectively superposing phases in the adjustable phase value sets on the network node forwarding beam forming weight matrix corresponding to the initial forwarding beam pattern to obtain a forwarding beam pattern set, wherein the forwarding beam patterns in the forwarding beam pattern set have the same beam forwarding direction.
Illustratively, each forwarding unit of the network node may perform a 2-bit phase modulation order, and may generate 4 phase changes, at which time the adjustable phase value set ψ, ψ= {0, pi/2, pi, 3 pi/2 } of the network node. When each forwarding unit of the network node can perform a 3-bit phase modulation order, 8 phase changes can be generated, at which time the set of adjustable phase values ψ= {0, pi/4, pi/2, 3 pi/4, pi, 5 pi/4, 3 pi/2, 7 pi/4 } of the network node.
For the initial repeating beam pattern, it is assumed that the repeating beam forming weight matrix composed of the reflection phases of the respective repeating units of the network node at this time is [ theta ] i,j ]Wherein θ i,j The dimension of the forwarding beamforming weight matrix is omitted for simplicity for the forwarding beamforming weights of the forwarding units of the ith row and jth column. At least one repeating beam pattern may be formed by adding individual phase values in the set of adjustable phase values to all repeating beam forming weights.
For example, in the forward beamforming weight matrix [ theta ] i,j ]Adding the phase values of the adjustable phase value set phi = {0, pi/2, pi, 3 pi/2 } to form 4 transfer beam patterns, thereby obtaining a transfer beam pattern set phi = { [ theta } i,j ],[θ i,j +π/2],[θ i,j +π],[θ i,j +3π/2]}. Each of the repeating beam patterns in the set of repeating beam patterns has the same beam repeating direction, but there is a phase difference between any two repeating beam patterns.
In one embodiment, modulating the second data signal onto the first data signal according to the first data signal characteristic in S204 with at least one repeating beam pattern includes: modulating the second data signal onto the first data signal based on the repeating beam pattern set and a preset mapping rule, wherein the preset mapping rule is used for representing a corresponding relation between the second data signal and repeating beam patterns in the repeating beam pattern set.
In the case that each forwarding unit of the network node may perform 2-bit phase modulation order, the bit information set a of the second data signal that the network node may transmit includes 4 types, a= {00, 01, 11, 10}, and the element in the bit information set a may be configured to correspond to the forwarding beam pattern in the forwarding beam pattern set one to construct the preset mapping relationship, where the preset mapping relationship may be preconfigured in the network node.
And the network node determines a forwarding beam pattern corresponding to the bit information based on the preset mapping relation according to the bit information of the second data signal to be transmitted, so as to modulate the second data signal to the first data signal.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the corresponding relation between the second data signal and the forwarding beam patterns in the forwarding beam pattern set is established by constructing the preset mapping rule, so that the forwarding beam pattern is rapidly and conveniently determined, and the forwarding efficiency of the network node is improved.
In one embodiment, the second data signal comprises a third data signal and a fourth data signal, the third data signal being used for determining a demodulation reference of the fourth data signal and for determining a starting position of the fourth data signal, the fourth data signal being a data signal that the network node desires to transmit.
The third data signal refers to a packet header signal, and is further used for detecting and determining that the second data signal transmission exists currently by the user terminal.
