The embodiment of the application provides a communication device, a communication method and electronic equipment, which can block the self-adaptive suppression of signals, thereby improving the communication quality experience.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system in which an embodiment of the present application is exemplarily shown. The communication system may include a baseband module 110, a radio frequency transceiver (RF transceiver) 120, a radio frequency front end (radio frequency front-end, RFFE) 130, and an antenna module 140.
The baseband module 110 may perform digital baseband signal processing to encode and decode the digital baseband signal. The baseband module 110 may include a modulation module 112 and a demodulation module 111. The demodulation module 111 may receive a signal of the radio frequency transceiver 120 and demodulate the signal through a carrier. The modulation module 112 may modulate the signal with a carrier wave via a multiplier.
The radio frequency transceiver 120 may be used to perform conversion between digital baseband and analog radio frequency signals. The radio frequency transceiver 120 may include a radio frequency demodulation module 121 and a radio frequency modulation module 122. The rf modulation module 122 may process the digital baseband signal from the baseband module 110 into an rf analog signal and send the rf analog signal to the rf front end 130. The rf demodulation module 121 receives the rf analog signal transmitted by the rf front end 130, converts the rf analog signal into a digital baseband signal, and sends the digital baseband signal to the baseband module 110.
The antenna module 140 may include a plurality of antennas. The external antenna of the antenna module 140 may be configured to receive or transmit radio frequency analog signals. The antenna module 140 may include a plurality of antennas, for example, 3P3T.4P4T, etc., without limitation.
The rf front end 130 may be configured to send rf analog signals to the antenna module 140 or receive rf analog signals from the antenna module 140, so as to amplify, filter, and so on the rf analog signals. The rf front end 130 may include a Power Amplifier (PA) 132, a low noise amplifier (low noise amplifier, LNA) 131, a filter 133, and an antenna switch 134, among others. The radio frequency front end is a core component of the wireless communication module and is a basic component for mutually converting a wireless electromagnetic wave signal and a binary digital signal. The radio frequency front end can be applied to terminal equipment, communication base stations and the like.
A Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) 131 may enable signal amplification of the receive path. The signal receiving device is used at the receiving end and is an amplifier with small noise coefficient, and can amplify weak radio frequency signals received by an antenna, inhibit noise and enable signals transmitted to the rear end receiver to be processed more easily. The LNA can effectively improve the receiving sensitivity of the receiver, thereby improving the transmission distance of the transceiver. Therefore, whether the design of the low noise amplifier is good or not can affect the communication quality of the whole communication system.
The Power Amplifier (PA) 132 is a core device of the rf front end, and may amplify the rf signal of each transmit channel. The important function of the PA132 is to amplify the power, obtain sufficient signal strength to radiate through the antenna, and at the same time the process signal is not distorted. The PA132 is mainly used for a transmitting link, and by amplifying a weak radio frequency signal of a transmitting channel, the signal successfully obtains high enough power, thereby realizing higher communication quality, stronger battery endurance, longer communication distance and the like.
The filter 133 may retain signals in a particular frequency band and filter out signals in other frequency bands. To address the problem of interfering signals in a radio frequency communication system, filters may be relied upon to reduce blocking signals and preserve target signals. Briefly, a filter is a component that allows transmission of frequencies within a passband and rejection of frequencies within a stopband.
The switch can realize the switching of different signal paths, receiving and transmitting, and the switching of different frequency bands.
Of course, the rf front end 130 may also include other devices or modules, such as a diplexer (not shown): because of the band reject filters in two different frequency bands, the receive and transmit announcements in frequency band reuse (FDD) will function simultaneously, and the diplexer can be used to interfere with the receive signal by the transmit signal.
From the communication system configuration point of view, the radio frequency front end can be divided into a transmit channel and a receive channel: the transmitting channel can amplify and filter the weak electromagnetic wave signal generated by the radio frequency transmitter in the process of transmitting the signal, and the transmitting channel comprises functional components such as a Power Amplifier (PA). In the emission channel: through the PA amplification, the signals reach the antenna after the filtering process and the antenna switch control, and are radiated into space through the antenna. The receiving channel can amplify and filter the received electromagnetic wave signal to a range suitable for the operation of the radio frequency receiver in the process of receiving the signal, wherein the receiving channel comprises a filter, a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), a radio frequency switch and other devices. In the receiving channel: the space radiation signal is coupled into the receiving path through the antenna, and the received weak signal is subjected to fatigue and filtering treatment, reaches the LNA after being controlled by the radio frequency switch, and is amplified and then oscillates with the local.
In the above-mentioned receiving channel, in order to suppress the influence of the external interference signal on the sensitivity of the receiving signal of the terminal and to suppress the out-of-band interference (blocking signal) of the radio frequency signal of the transmitting channel, it is generally necessary to configure a filter or a duplexer on the receiving channel and the transmitting channel of the radio frequency front end. Blocking refers to the effect of an operating out-of-band interfering signal on the overall uplink gain and in-band signal demodulation. In a radio frequency communication system, a blocking signal is a received interfering input signal that reduces the gain and signal-to-interference ratio of a target signal. The blocking signal may directly mask the target signal or may produce spurious products that mask the target signal. These unwanted signals may be the result of unintentional or intentional interference.
For the receiving requirement of the multi-band multi-input multi-output MIMO antenna, the radio frequency front end needs to support the products of the multi-band MIMO receiving channel. However, since the filtering range of the filter is fixed, in one case, adjacent multiple frequency bands and multiple modes can be supported in one receiving channel of the radio frequency chip. When the terminal needs to support a plurality of frequency bands included in the one receiving channel, a switch device needs to be added to the radio frequency front end to adapt to filters or diplexers corresponding to the plurality of frequency bands, which leads to the increase of the volume and cost of the radio frequency front end, and meanwhile, the introduction of the switch also reduces the radio frequency performance of the receiving channel. In one case, multiple frequency bands and multiple modes can be respectively supported by multiple receiving channels of the radio frequency chip. This leads to an increase in the number of filters, LNAs, etc., which leads to an increase in the bulk and cost of the rf front-end, and a greater limitation on the rejection of blocking signals.
In the above process, since the adaptive filtering frequency band of each filter is fixed, if the rf front end supporting multiple frequency bands, the number of filters needs to be increased to each receiving channel. The blocking signal in the receiving channel is attenuated by the filter, so that the multi-band shared receiving channel is realized, and the increased line complexity of the filter can bring about the volume and cost of the product.
The embodiment of the application provides a communication device, a communication method and electronic equipment. The radio frequency front end may include an LNA, a PA, a filtering module, and an antenna switch. The filtering module may include a first switch, a second switch, K inductance modules, and N capacitance modules. The K movable ends of the first switch are respectively connected with one ends of the K inductance modules; n movable ends of the second switch are respectively connected with one ends of N capacitance modules; the other ends of the K inductance modules and the N capacitance modules are connected with the input end of the LNA; the output end of the LNA is connected with the baseband module; the LNA amplifies signals of the receiving channel; the baseband module demodulates the signals of the receiving channel;
under the condition of receiving signals, the baseband module controls the first switch and the second switch to firstly determine a target matched filtering combination according to the period duration, and then carries out filtering processing according to the target matched filtering combination. The target matched filtering combination is the combination with the best signal quality information in all combinations of the K inductance modules and the N capacitance modules. Specifically, the baseband module control may change the matched filtering combination according to a preset combination sequence; the first switch can adjust the matching inductance module by selecting K active terminals, and the second switch can adjust the matching capacitance module by selecting N active terminals. The matched filtering combination is a combination type formed by K inductance modules and N capacitance modules. The preset combination sequence is information of all matched filtering combination types arranged according to a fixed sequence. And traversing all matched filter combinations once every time the target matched filter combination is determined to be completed.
In the above process, the matched filtering combination selected by the first switch and the second switch forms a parallel resonant circuit, and suppresses the wave band corresponding to the parameter. Because the parameters of the K inductance modules and the N capacitance modules are different, the corresponding consistent frequency bands of each matched filtering combination are also different. In each period duration, the baseband module firstly traverses the matched filtering combination through a round of circulation, selects the matched filtering combination with the best signal quality, then can ensure that the optimal matched filtering combination is unchanged in the residual time of the period duration, receives signals, and can select the optimal matched filtering combination to carry out signal filtering in most of the residual time in the period of circulation at the moment, thereby ensuring better filtering effect. For the condition of the change of the signal frequency band and the noise frequency band, the fixed frequency band filtering mode of the filter is limited, the signal quality is poor, the flexibility is poor, the filtering effect is better, and the flexibility and the universality are higher. In addition, the circuit structure of the filtering module is simpler, the area of the circuit structure is smaller, and the cost of the product is lower.

As shown in fig. 2A, the communication system may include a baseband module 210, a radio frequency transceiver 220, a radio frequency front end 230, and an antenna module 240. The radio frequency front end 230 may include an LNA231, a PA232, a filtering module 233, and an antenna switch 234. The rf front end 230 may connect the antenna module 240 and the rf transceiver 220. The filtering module 233, which may be the rf front end 230, may also be connected to the baseband module 210. The baseband module 210 is coupled to a radio frequency transceiver 220. Wherein the rf front end 230 and the rf transceiver may constitute an rf module.
The baseband module 210 may be a baseband Chip (Baseband Processor, BP), which may include a System on Chip (SoC). The filtering module 233 may be connected to the baseband module 210, and in particular, the filtering module 233 may be connected to the SoC213. In general, a SoC is referred to as a system-on-chip, also known as a system-on-chip, meaning that it is a product that is an integrated circuit with dedicated targets, containing the entire system and having embedded software. It is also a technique to achieve the whole process from determining the system functions, to software/hardware partitioning, and to complete the design.
The filtering module 233 can filter out signals in out-of-band frequency bands, so as to solve the problem of interference signals in the radio frequency communication system, and can reduce blocking signals and retain target signals by means of a filter. The following describes details about the filtering module 233. In the embodiment of the application, the baseband module can regulate and control the filtering frequency band of the filtering module 233, and select so as to select the information with the best received signal for processing.
The description of the related modules in the communication system in fig. 2A may refer to the related description in fig. 1, which is not repeated.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2B, the radio frequency transceiver 220 may include an LNA221, while the radio frequency front end 230 does not include an LNA. Other modules may refer to the relevant description of fig. 2A, and are not described in detail.
In the above process, the SoC of the baseband module 210 may control the first switch and the second switch to select the matching inductance module and the matching capacitance module. In the receiving channel, the received signal passes through the first switch and the matching inductance module, and the second switch and the matching capacitance module. The matching inductance module and the matching capacitance module can filter the received signals.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a filtering module 233 according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 3, referring to the communication system shown in fig. 2A and 2B, the filtering module 233 may connect the antenna switch 234, the LNA231, and the baseband module 210. The radio frequency transceiver 220 may connect the LNA231 and the baseband module 210.
The filtering module 233 may include a first switch, a second switch, K inductance modules, and N capacitance modules. The first switch and the second switch may be connected to the antenna switch 234, and K active ports of the first switch may be connected to one ends of K inductance modules, respectively. The N active ends of the second switch may be connected to one end of the N capacitor modules, and the other ends of the K inductor modules and the other ends of the N capacitor modules may be connected to the LNA231, respectively. The first switch and the second switch may also be connected to the baseband module 210, respectively.
The first switch and the second switch are both single pole multi-throw switches. The first switch may be used to select a matching inductance module from the K inductance modules. The first switch may include K movable terminals (a 1, a2, a3, … …, ai, … …, aK) and one fixed terminal a. The K inductance modules may be: first inductance module, second inductance module, … …, ith inductance module, … …, kth inductance module. K is a positive integer, and i is any integer from 1 to K. Wherein each of the inductor modules may include a first end and a second end. The K movable ends of the first switch are sequentially connected with the first ends of the K inductance modules respectively. The first switch may further include a control terminal, and the control terminal of the first switch may be connected to the inductance selection terminal of the baseband module 210. The baseband module 210 may control the first switch to change or determine the matching inductance module through the inductance selection terminal, thereby adjusting the connection between the fixed end a and the movable end. For example, in the case of a connection when the i-th inductor module is selected as the matching inductor module, the first switch may connect the a-terminal with the ai-terminal. The matching inductance module is an inductance module which is selectively accessed by a first switch in the K inductance modules.
The second switch may be used to select a matching capacitive module from the N capacitive modules. The second switch may include N movable terminals (B1, B2, B3, … …, bN, … …, bN) and one fixed terminal B. The N capacitance modules may be respectively: the first capacitor module, the second capacitor module, … …, the nth capacitor module, … … and the nth capacitor module. N is a positive integer, and N is any integer from 1 to N. Wherein each capacitive module may include a first end and a second end. The N active ends of the second switch may be sequentially connected to the first ends of the N capacitor modules, respectively. The second switch may also include a control terminal. The baseband module 210 may control the second switch to change or determine the matching capacitor module through the capacitor selection terminal, thereby adjusting the connection between the fixed terminal B and the movable terminal. For example, in the case where the nth capacitance module is selected as the matching capacitance module, the second switch may connect the B port with the bn port. The matching capacitor module is a capacitor module which is selectively accessed by a second switch in the N capacitor modules.
The baseband module 210 may select a matching inductance module and a matching capacitance module based on the signal quality of the received signal.
The baseband module may determine a target matched filter combination; the target matched filtering combination is the combination with the best signal quality information in the combination of all the inductance modules and the capacitance modules; the signal quality information indicates the quality of the signal quality of the receiving channel; and then, the baseband module controls the first switch and the second switch to selectively connect the target matched filtering combination, and filtering processing is performed through the target matched filtering combination. After the baseband module traverses all the matched filter combinations, a target matched filter combination is obtained. The target matched filtering combination is the combination with the best signal quality information of all matched filtering combinations.
In a possible implementation, in case the receiving channel receives the signal, a periodic loop filtering procedure may be performed. The periodic cyclic filtering flow comprises the following steps: the method comprises the steps of starting at the starting moment of each period, determining a target matched filter combination, selecting a connection target matched filter combination, ensuring that the matched filter combination is unchanged, starting at the starting moment of the next period, determining the target filter combination again, and cycling the process. It should be further noted that, the baseband module performs the above-mentioned cyclic filtering process only when receiving a signal. For example, the baseband module may determine that a radio frequency signal is currently received in the case of determining that an RRC connection is present. At this point, the baseband module may begin to perform a periodic loop filtering process.
The RRC states include two types: a released state and a connected state. In the RRC connected state, this means currently in the process of receiving radio frequency signals. In the RRC released state, this means that no radio frequency signal is currently received. And under the condition of RRC release, the baseband module ends the capacitive inductance selection flow. And under the condition that the RRC is released by the baseband module, stopping the periodic loop filtering flow.
In a cyclic filtering process, there may be various methods for determining the target matched filtering combination, and in a possible manner, the method of fig. 4 is described as follows:
fig. 4 is a flowchart of a method for determining a target matched filter combination according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4, the method for determining the target matched filter combination may include, but is not limited to, the following steps:
the baseband module may determine that a radio frequency signal is currently received in case of determining that it is in an RRC connection. At this time, the baseband module may acquire first signal quality information through the radio frequency transceiver (S401 is performed). S401 to S406 are matched filtering combination circulation flows in the embodiment of the application.
S401: the baseband module obtains first signal quality information.
The first signal quality information includes a first reference signal received quality (reference signal received quality, RSRQ) and/or a first signal to interference plus noise ratio (signal to interference plus noise ratio, SINR). The signal quality information may represent a degree of quality of the signal quality of the reception channel signal.
The RSRQ is a measure of the quality of reception of the downlink specific cell reference signal, and is expressed in dBm. SINR is the ratio of the strength of the received useful signal to the strength of the received interfering signal in dB.
Specifically, in the process of receiving signals, the radio frequency transceiver filters in a receiving channel according to the current capacitance matching module and the current inductance matching module. The radio frequency transceiver calculates the RSRQ and SINR of the received signal. The baseband module may request first signal quality information of a received signal from the radio frequency transceiver in case it is determined that a radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) connection is currently being made. The radio frequency transceiver may then transmit the first signal quality information to the baseband module.
In the embodiment of the present application, the signal quality information is parameter information for measuring the quality of the received signal, and may include RSRQ and/or SINR.
S402: the baseband module changes the capacitance matching module and the inductance matching module.
The filtering module comprises K inductance modules and N capacitance modules. The inductance value of each inductance module and the capacitance value of each capacitance module are different, and a matched filtering combination can comprise a capacitance module and an inductance module, and the inductance and the capacitance can be adjusted according to a preset combination sequence in a baseband module. The predetermined combination, i.e. the combination category of the matched filter combination, may comprise k×n (or k×n+1, further comprising one of the straight-through). And each matched filtering combination is respectively connected with a capacitance matching module and an inductance matching module, and corresponds to a resonance point.
For example, K is 4 and N is 3. The baseband module may be preset with 4*3 =12 matched filtering combinations, where the 12 matched filtering combinations respectively correspond to the combination modes of the 12 switch active ends. For example, the switch combination list (predetermined combination order of matched filter combinations) is: a1-b1 (resonance point 1); a1-b2 (resonance point 2); a1-b3 (resonance point 3); a2-b1 (resonance point 4); a2-b2 (resonance point 5); a2-b3 (resonance point 6); a3-b1 (resonance point 7); a3-b2 (resonance point 8); a3-b3 (resonance point 9); a4-b1 (resonance point 10); a4-b2 (resonance point 11); a4-b3 (resonance point 12). Of course, it may also include: and when the capacitor module is in direct connection and is not blocked, the capacitor module and the inductor module are not connected by using the direct connection end to work. A total of 12 switch combinations correspond to 12 matched filter combinations. Assume that the baseband module can determine the current matched filter combination as a2-b1. In the case where it is determined that the capacitance matching module and the inductance matching module need to be changed, it may be determined that the matched filter combination is changed to a2-b2 (filter combination after a2-b 1) in a predetermined combination order. The baseband module can control the end A of the first switch to be connected with the end a2, and the end B of the second switch to be connected with the end B2, so that the change is finished. The matched filter combination comprises a capacitance matching module and an inductance matching module.
The predetermined combination sequence may be preset, may be in a form of a table or a text, and is not limited. The predetermined combination order is information that sorts the matched filter combinations in a fixed order. S403: the baseband module obtains second signal quality information.
And after the electronic equipment changes the capacitance matching module and the inductance matching module, acquiring second signal quality information. Wherein the second signal quality information may include a second RSRQ and/or a second SINR. The manner of acquisition may refer to the related description of S401, and is not described in detail. The second signal quality information is the latest acquired signal quality information after the change in S402. That is, the matched filter combination in the received signal path has changed in S403, and the acquired second signal quality information generally corresponds to a different matched filter combination than the first signal quality information.
S404: the baseband module determines whether to adjust the first signal quality information based on the first signal quality information and the second signal quality information.
After the baseband module determines the first RSRQ and the second RSRQ, and/or the first SINR and the second SINR, the baseband module may determine whether to adjust the first signal quality information based on the first signal quality information and the second signal quality information.
The first signal quality information includes a first RSRQ and/or a first SINR. The second signal quality information includes a second RSRQ and/or a second SINR. In case that the first signal quality information is better than the second signal quality information, S406 is performed; otherwise, S405 is executed. The following is specific to the different cases:
if possible: the signal quality information includes RSRQ and SINR. The baseband module may determine a size between the first RSRQ and the second RSRQ; and a size between the first SINR and the second SINR.
When the first RSRQ is greater than or equal to the second RSRQ; and if the first SINR is greater than or equal to the second SINR, the first RSRQ is executed S406. At the first RSRQ is less than the second RSRQ; and S405 is performed in case that the first SINR is smaller than the second SINR. I.e. the value of the second signal quality information may be assigned to the first signal quality information. At the first RSRQ is less than the second RSRQ; and S406 is performed in case that the first SINR is greater than or equal to the second SINR. When the first RSRQ is greater than or equal to the second RSRQ; and S405 is performed in case that the first SINR is smaller than the second SINR. That is, it can be understood that when the SINR and the RSRQ result collide, the signal index of the SINR is more important and effective, so that the SINR information is used for processing first, and the reliability of the comparison result can be ensured.
Another possible case is: the signal quality information includes RSRQ. The baseband module may determine a size between the first RSRQ and the second RSRQ. In case the first RSRQ is greater than or equal to the second RSRQ, S406 is performed. In case the first RSRQ is smaller than the second RSRQ, S405 is performed.
Yet another possible case is: the signal quality information includes SINR. The baseband module may determine a size between the first SINR and the second SINR. In case that the first SINR is greater than or equal to the second SINR, S406 is performed. In case the first SINR is smaller than the second SINR, S405 is performed.
S405: the baseband module assigns a value of the second signal quality information to the first signal quality information.
The baseband module assigns a value of the second RSRQ to the first RSRQ if the second signal quality information is determined to be better; and/or assigning a value of the second SINR to the first SINR.
For example, the second RSRQ is-22 dBm; in the case where the first RSRQ is-41 dBm, the first RSRQ may be determined to be-22 dBm. The second SINR is 24dB; in the case where the first SINR is 50dB, the first SINR may be determined as 50dB.
After S405 is performed, S407 may be continued to be performed.
S406: the baseband module maintains the first signal quality information unchanged.
In case it is determined that the first signal quality information is better, the baseband module performs S406, i.e. the baseband module keeps the first RSRQ and/or the first SINR unchanged.
The execution process of S405 and S406 can keep the best signal quality combination of the first signal quality information so far in the round of matched filtering combination circulation flow, so as to ensure that the determined target matched filtering combination is the best signal quality information.
After S406 is performed, S407 may be continued to be performed.
S407: the baseband module judges whether to end the matched filtering combination circulation flow.
The baseband module determines whether the current matched filter combination is the last matched filter combination in a predetermined combination order. If the matched filter combination is the last, the matched filter combination loop is judged to be ended, and S408 is executed. If not, the judgment is not finished, and S402 is executed.
S408: the baseband module determines a matched filter combination corresponding to the first signal quality information as a target matched filter combination.
The baseband module may determine that the matched filter combination corresponding to the first signal quality information may be a target matched filter combination.
In the above process, each time the modification (S402), the matched filter combination adjustment is performed once, and the first signal quality information is redetermined once. After traversing all the matched filter combinations according to a predetermined combination sequence (after a round of cyclic matched filter combinations), the baseband module can determine that the first signal quality information is the best signal quality information, determine the matched filter combination corresponding to the first signal quality information, and determine the matched filter combination as a target matched filter combination. The baseband module can control the first switch and the second switch to adjust the filtering module to the target matched filtering combination, and can filter through the target matched filtering combination in the remaining time of the current period cyclic filtering flow. After that, after the loop completes one cycle of the loop filtering process, the baseband module may continue with the next cycle of the loop until the RRC connection is broken.
In addition to the method of determining the target matched filter combination of fig. 4, another possible aspect of embodiments of the present application. The baseband module may also alter the matched filter combinations in a predetermined sequence of combinations, after each alteration, the baseband module may store signal quality information for each matched filter combination. After traversing all matched filter combinations in a predetermined sequence of combinations, all stored signal quality information may be compared to determine the combination with the best signal quality information as the target matched filter combination. The application is not limited to the process of determining the target matched filter combination.
The baseband module can complete one cycle in one cycle duration in the cycle filtering flow. The baseband module may determine a start time of each cycle, and before each change thereafter, may determine whether a time difference between the start time of the cycle and a current time reaches a preset period duration. When the time difference between the cycle start time and the current time is greater than or equal to the period duration, the electronic device may start to determine to start to change, and if the time difference is less than the preset period duration, the electronic device may wait for the time difference to reach the preset period duration, and start to change.
Illustratively, the period duration is 10S, and the baseband module performs S402 to determine whether the current matched filter combination is the last matched filter combination in the predetermined combination order. And if the combination is the last matched filtering combination, executing S402, otherwise, exiting the loop logic of S401-S406. The baseband module may then alter the matched filter combination to a matched filter combination corresponding to the first signal quality information. And under the condition that the current period duration is over, carrying out the processing procedure of the next cycle period, namely re-executing the processing procedures of S401-S406.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a matched filter combination modification of a plurality of period durations, as shown in an example of an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 5, T1 to T2 are separated by a period of time, and T2 to T3 are separated by a period of time.
At the time T1, the baseband module determines that a receiving channel acquires a signal, (RRC connection), starts to execute a matched filter combination changing process (S401-S406), circularly completes first traversal in a period from T1 to T1, determines a first target matched filter combination, and adjusts the matched filter combination to the first target matched filter combination; the received signal is filtered in accordance with a first target matched filter combination over a period of T1 to T2.
Restarting executing the matched filter combination changing flow (S401-S406) at the moment T2, circularly completing the second traversal in the period from T2 to T2, determining a second target matched filter combination, and adjusting the matched filter combination to the second target matched filter combination; the received signal is filtered in accordance with the second target matched filter combination during the period T2 to T3.
And restarting the execution of the matched filter combination changing flow (S401-S406) at the moment T3, circularly completing the third traversal in the period from T3 to T3, determining a third target matched filter combination, and executing the rest steps according to the same logic at the moments T1 and T2.
And restarting executing the matched filter combination changing flow (S401-S406) at the TY moment, circularly completing the Y-th traversal in the period from TY to TY, and determining the Y-th target matched filter combination. And in the period duration of tY, the TE time RRC is released, and the execution process of the matched filtering combination changing process (S401-S406) is exited under the condition that the receiving channel cannot receive the signal. Wherein Y is an integer greater than 2.
As can be seen from fig. 5, after a short traversal time, it is determined that the filtering matching can be flexibly performed within the period duration of the target matching filtering combination, so that the filtering result is more consistent with the current frequency band, and the filtering effect of the electronic device is better.
Optionally, the baseband module may determine the period duration before executing S401 to S406. The period duration may range from 0.5s to 20s.
The baseband module may determine the period duration based on the movement speed or acceleration data. At this time, the baseband module may acquire the moving speed of the device through the acceleration sensor. The faster the movement speed, the shorter the corresponding period duration. The baseband module is used for a first mapping relation between a speed range and a period duration. For example, in the first mapping relationship: the speed is above 200km/h, and the corresponding period time is 0.5s; the speed is more than 100-200 km/h, and the corresponding period duration is 1s; the speed is above 40-100 km/h, and the corresponding period time is 4s; the speed is more than 10-40 km/h, and the corresponding period duration is 10s; the speed is below 10km/h, and the corresponding period duration is 15s. The first mapping relation described above is only an exemplary description, and is not limited thereto.
In the above embodiment, the electronic device can determine the period duration according to the moving speed of the device, so that the flexibility of the accuracy of the cycle adjustment period of the filtering module can be ensured, the electronic device can be ensured to quickly and effectively select the best quality matched filtering module, the cycle times are reduced as much as possible, the processing times are saved, and the power consumption of the electronic device is saved.
