Description

Mobile radio terminal
Technical field
The present invention relates to be used for for example mobile radio terminal of the code division multiple access of the mobile radio communicaltions system of automobile telephone system and portable telephone system etc. (CDMA) mode.
Background technology
As everyone knows, in recent years, adopt the mobile radio communicaltions system of CDMA mode to make one notice.This system adopts the communication mode of spread spectrum communication mode as it.
Here, with reference to Fig. 1, the existing mobile radio terminal in the above-mentioned mobile communication system is described.Here especially the receiving system relevant with the present invention is illustrated as the center.
The digital modulation mode of emitter 12 usefulness PSK (phase shift keying) modulation etc. is modulated the emission data of audio communication and data communication etc., with spreading code these modulated data is extended to wide band baseband signal.
Then, emitter 12 is up-converted into radio frequency signals with above-mentioned baseband signal, is input to first antenna 10 by antenna multicoupler 11, by first antenna 10 above-mentioned signal is transmitted in the space then and goes unillustrated base station in figure.
On the other hand, the radio signal in that first antenna 10 receives by above-mentioned base station is input to receiving system 13 by antenna multicoupler 11 with it.Receiving system 13 is by radio circuit 14, and intermediate-frequency circuit 15 and Rake (separating multiple diameter) receiver 16 is formed.
At first, in radio circuit 14, will be input to attenuator 14a from the radio signal that antenna multicoupler 11 receives, at this attenuator 14a, predefined amount only decays.By the signal of attenuator 14a, in amplifier 14b, be amplified to behind the fixed level, in frequency mixer 14c, carry out mixing with the signal that in frequency synthesizer 14d, generates, be downconverted into intermediate-freuqncy signal.
The signal that is downconverted into this intermediate frequency is input to intermediate-frequency circuit 15, in amplifier 15a, be amplified to fixed level.Amplify among the result at this, have only desired frequency band, be input to frequency mixer 15c by band pass filter (BPF) 15b.
At frequency mixer 15c, carry out mixing by the signal of band pass filter 15b and the signal that in frequency synthesizer 15d, generates, be transformed into baseband signal.In A/D (analog/digital) converter (A/D) 15e, this baseband signal is transformed into digital signal, is input to Rake receiver 16.
Rake receiver 16 is by searcher 16a, the 16b of branch, and 16c, 16d and symbol combiner 16e form.Above-mentioned digital signal is input to searcher 16a respectively, the 16b of branch, 16c, 16d.
Searcher 16a, in order to detect the signal that mulitpath is come the terminal of controlling oneself that passes through from above-mentioned base station, carry out so-called multipath detected, use with the identical spreading code that is used to expand in emission side and in all timings, above-mentioned digital signal is carried out contrary expansion.
Then, searcher 16a from above-mentioned contrary spreading result, asks the Ec/Io (Io is the total electrical power spectrum density in the frequency acceptance band, and Ec is the pilot energy of putting aside) of mulitpath during the IPN chip, and asks the delay-time difference (postponing to distribute) of these road warps.Then,, ask the reception timing (contrary expansion regularly) in the path that is suitable for receiving, it is distributed to the 16b of branch, 16c, 16d respectively according to these results.
The 16b of branch, 16c, 16d use with the identical spreading code that is used in emission side expand above-mentioned digital signal are implemented contrary extension process in the contrary expansion regularly that is distributed by searcher 16a.
Symbol combiner 16e considers and distributes to each 16b of branch, 16c, the contrary expansion of 16d regularly, to respectively at the 16b of branch, 16c, the multipath composition of 16d superinverse expansion carries out symbol combination.
In the Signal Processing Element 17 of back, the signal through symbol combination on symbol combiner 16e is carried out the demodulation corresponding with the digital modulation of emission side, receive data thereby produce again.
In addition, on this mobile radio terminal, unillustrated control assembly carries out the control for handover according to the Ec/Io of the pilot signal of trying to achieve among the figure on searcher 16a.
In this control, when in waiting for the accepting state that receives, carrying out receiving intermittence, above-mentioned Ec/Io, if satisfied (1) is lower than setting, relatively be reduced to more than the setting during (2) with last time reception, or the difference of the Ec/Io of (3) and neighbor base station at setting with interior etc. condition, then in order to carry out handover, measure Ec/Io from the pilot signal of other base station.Then, when the Ec/Io of the pilot signal of other base station is bigger than setting, proceed to the handover of other base station.
Then, in addition, when mobile radio terminal is in the state of conversing, the Ec/Io of the pilot signal of the base station that is now just connecting becomes lower than setting, and when the Ec/Io of the pilot signal of neighbor base station becomes bigger than setting, though do not communicate in interior a plurality of base stations, carry out handover with comprising the base station of satisfying institute's fixed condition.
Advantage as above such CDMA mode, we can enumerate (1) so because with spread spectrum remarkable communication security is arranged, (2) so because very high anti-decline is arranged with the Rake receive mode, (3) can carry out not can instantaneous trip communication stable handover, so-called soft handover etc.
; in the mobile radio terminal of existing CDMA mode; because the multipath resolution of searcher 16a is the inverse by spreading rate; promptly determine during PN chip; so in the little situation of the width of time of delay of the multi-path signal that causes by this resolution, can not use the 16b of branch, 16c as described above; 16d separates the multipath composition respectively, carries out symbol combination.
That is, by the 16b of branch, 16c, the multi-path signal (ground wave, first reflected wave, second reflected wave) that 16d receives, the width of time of delay is little, the above delay of spreading rate inverse does not take place and can not carry out Rake to receive.
Like this, because because the delay-time difference between the multi-path signal can not produce the reflected wave more late than ground wave, again so exist anti-decline reduction can not guarantee stable problems such as communication quality.These problems take place in the low speed of walking degree in addition, more significantly when moving with inactive state than high-speed mobile.
In addition, like this, so because time of delay of multi-path signal little can not carrying out in the situation that Rake receives, the decline of generation multipath, although temporarily the frame error from the pilot signal of present base station is carried out institute's fixed number when detecting, the loss of decision-making system, catch from system.
In addition, this is as shown in Figure 2, under the influence that received energy is declined, relies on the place that received energy reduces once in a while and receives.
As mentioned above, judge the loss of system, carry out again when the processing of beginning is caught by system that conversation is interrupted and waited for the outer demonstration of unexpected occurrence scope when receiving when conversing, all needs is time-consuming up to the state that enters the wait reception.All with unnecessarily consuming cells is relevant for these.

As implied above, in the mobile radio terminal of above-mentioned formation, during the exhalation incoming call, perhaps when conversation, when the Ec/Io of the received signal by selecteed antenna is lower than predefined level, an antenna by remainder temporarily receives and detects Ec/Io, after this, will receive with the good antenna of Ec/Io.
That is, during the exhalation incoming call, perhaps when conversation, even if Ec/Io, will receive with the good antenna of Ec/Io when worry can not be guaranteed stable communication quality because the multipath decline temporarily reduces.
Because the reflected wave more late than ground wave can not be deferred to more than certain setting (inverse of spreading rate), receive in the time of to produce again so can not carry out Rake, Ec/Io is reduced owing to above-mentioned reflected wave with from other signal of base station formation interference wave.
For this reason, as mentioned above, when the Ec/Io reduction, when worry can not be guaranteed stable communication quality, by receiving, improved the possibility that to catch the reflected wave that the delay more than the above-mentioned setting is arranged from ground wave with good (for example directionality the is different) antenna of Ec/Io.
Therefore, if with the mobile radio terminal of above-mentioned formation, then when the exhalation incoming call, perhaps when conversing, even if under the electric wave environment that fierce decline takes place, also can guarantee stable communication quality.
