Description

Rake receiver and velocity checking circuits
The present invention relates to be used for Rake (Rake) receiver and the velocity checking circuits of the mobile communication terminal of CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) mode.
In recent years, in mobile communication system,, adopt the CDMA mode as the stronger communication mode of antijamming capability.The cdma communication mode is come the extend information symbol with spreading rate, expands the bandwidth of transmission signals, thus, can realize the separation of multipath.
For example, in the mode that meets American TI A standard (IS-95A),, thus,, can separate if leave the above multipath of 1 chip with spreading rate (1.2288MHz) extend information symbol (19.2KHz) (rate of spread 64).
On the other hand, in the mode that the transmission signals of the narrow-band such with FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) mode and TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) mode communicates, shown in Figure 12 (a) like that, because the multipath of change decline in time, received power sharply descends, and produces so-called flat fading.
Relative therewith, in the CDMA mode, by the broad in band of transmission signals, even multipath decline takes place, shown in Figure 12 (b) like that, because only some frequency spectrum is short of, so all received powers can sharply not descend, and, even a part of frequency spectrum shortcoming, owing to carried out receiving the path diversity of utilizing the multipath that separates energetically, and can access good reception characteristics by Rake.
In Figure 13, represented to carry out the Rake receiver of the existing mobile communication terminal that such Rake receives.
After the RF signal that the base station sent is received by antenna (not shown), in A/D converter (1), be transformed to digital signal, be input to respectively then in search section (20) and the demodulation section (30).
Search section (20) is by searcher (20a)~(20c) form.Searcher (20a)~(20c) uses respectively by the escape character of the indicated kind of control part (50) and the timing of de-spread, to carrying out de-spread and demodulation from the digital signal of A/D converter (1), detect the level of this demodulation result, be notified to control part (50).
Kind by the indicated escape character of control part (50) is the escape character of distributing to the escape character of each base station and distributing to this machine.
Demodulation section (30) is by referring to that (finger) (30a)~(30d) forms.Refer to that (30a)~(30d) uses by control part (50) indicated escape character and timing, to carrying out de-spread and carry out demodulation from the digital signal of A/D converter (1).And, refer to that (30a)~(30d) detects the level of the signal of demodulation respectively, is notified to control part (50).
Combiner circuit (4) is exported to synthetic result the decoding circuit (not shown) of back level being synthesized by the signal that refers to the demodulation of (30a)~(30d) institute.
Control part (50), give searcher (20a)~(20c) like that and refer to that (30a)~(30d) distributes the kind of escape character and the timing of de-spread by above-mentioned, simultaneously, monitor level by the decoded signal of searcher (20a)~(20c) and finger (30a)~(30d) notified.
Control part (50), by the level of searcher (20a)~(20c) notified greater than situation by the level that refers to (30a)~(30d) notified under, the timing allocation of escape character that in the searcher that detects this bigger level (20a)~(20c), uses and de-spread to the finger (30a)~(30d) of notifying the level littler than this level.
By such formation, Rake receiver is given the high signal allocation of incoming level to refer to (30a)~(30d) in multi-path signal, and has realized the path diversity that received respectively by a plurality of fingers (30a)~(30d).
And, in Rake receiver, except above-mentioned path diversity, also realized soft handover and so-called cell diversity.Cell diversity, when mobile communication corresponding terminal installation M moves to the sub-district of base station B from the sub-district of base station A and switches, communicate by the base station A that before switching, uses on one side, on one side the escape character of distributing to respectively with the approaching base station of base station A is distributed to searcher (20a)~(20c) successively, supervision is by the level of each searcher (20a)~(20c) notified, detect the base station B of moving target, and report that to base station A the base station of moving target is the meaning of base station B.
Relative therewith, base station A notifies the escape character of distributing to mobile communication terminal M to base station B, so that mobile communication terminal M can communicate by base station B by connecting the network between the base station.Base station B uses the escape character of the mobile communication terminal M that is notified by base station A, and the signal that begins to carry out to mobile communication terminal M sends.
Mobile communication terminal M receives on one side the signal from base station A and base station B two sides to be synthesized by Rake and receives, on one side in the sub-district that moves to base station B fully the time, carry out communication once more by base station B based on path diversity.
By such cell diversity,, also can proceed the communication that can not interrupt even switch.
But when carrying out minizone mobile by high-speed mobile, there is the possibility that call drop takes place in the Rake receiver of above-mentioned existing formation.Figure 14 represents the variation from the signal strength signal intensity of base station B in the mobile communication terminal M that base station B moves, and represents that respectively low speed moves and high-speed mobile.
As shown in Figure 14, when high-speed mobile, compare when moving with low speed, signal strength signal intensity from base station B sharply increases, but when high-speed mobile, compares when moving with low speed, near base station B, therefore, the base station number that can verify lacks when moving than low speed at short notice.
Therefore, depend on the supervision order (allocation order of the escape character of checking) of base station, use the checking of the escape character of base station B to fail to carry out, therefore, compare when moving, when high-speed mobile with low speed, as shown in Figure 15, on average, the detection of base station B lags behind.
Like this, when the detection of base station B lags behind, near during the B of base station, send signal to mobile communication terminal M as yet from base station B, therefore, become disturbing wave on the contrary from the signal of base station B, call drop takes place.
That is, when high-speed mobile, under the mobile situation about must switch because of the minizone, from the signal of base station detection hysteresis of moving target, and there is the problem that call drop takes place in existing Rake receiver.

Display part (6) is by carrying out for example LCD formations such as (LCD) that literal shows.Display part (6) can show the set condition that sends identification of targets numbering and this machine, can show the speed of this mobile communication terminal of being judged by above-mentioned translational speed decision maker (5a) with " stopping ", " low speed moves ", " high-speed mobile " 3 sections.
Cell diversity when using the flow chart of Fig. 9 that switching in the Rake receiver of above-mentioned formation is described is below handled action.
When being lower than predefined level by the level that refers to (3a)~(3d) notified, control part (5) begins to carry out cell diversity shown in Figure 9.At first, in step (9a), refer to (3a) giving by the escape character in the resulting path of level (finger) of the maximum in the level that refers to (3a)~(3d) notified and de-spread timing allocation.Thus, refer to that (3a) carries out the reception in path of the level of above-mentioned maximum.
In step (9b),, its escape character is distributed to searcher (2a)~(2c) successively the candidate base station of the base station adjacent as moving target with the base station A that receives by finger (3a).At this moment, searcher (2a)~(2c) moves control according to the speed of being judged by translational speed decision maker (5a) by searcher control device (5b).Thus, only the searcher that is in the operate condition is carried out the distribution of escape character.
The allocation order of in Figure 10, having represented " stopping ", " low speed moves ", " high-speed mobile " each state.In the example of Figure 10, the base station adjacent with base station A is eight of N1 to N8, and be 10[ms the search time that makes each base station].Under this state, when translational speed decision maker (5a) is judged to be " stopping " state, only searcher (2a) action.Thus, shown in Figure 10 (a) like that, the base station A that is using and other base station N1~N8 are alternately searched, therefore, to needing retrieval time of a circulation of all base stations of searching for 160[ms].
When translational speed decision maker (5a) is judged to be " low speed moves " state, searcher (2a), (2b) action, therefore, shown in Figure 10 (b) like that, the base station A that one of them searcher (2a) search is being used, another searcher (2b) is searched for other base station N1~N8, therefore, and to needing retrieval time of a circulation of all base stations of searching for 80[ms].
When translational speed decision maker (5a) is judged to be " high-speed mobile " state, searcher (2a), (2b), (2c) action, therefore, shown in Figure 10 (c) like that, the base station A that searcher (2a) search is being used, searcher (2b), (2c) search for other base station N1~N8 respectively, therefore, and to needing retrieval time of a circulation of all base stations of searching for 40[ms].
Then, in step (9c), the X (n) the level difference above-mentioned formula of being notified successively by searcher (2a)~(2c) of substitution (1) is transformed to respectively and is determined level Y (n).At this moment, employedly in formula (1) forget factor alpha, forget that coefficient control device (5c) carries out switching controls according to the speed result of determination of translational speed decision maker (5a).As described above, in this control, translational speed is high more, forgets that coefficient is big more, therefore, more approaching now in detected incoming level be reflected in and be determined among the level Y (n).
Whether the average result that is determined level Y (n) that supervision is in each searcher (2a)~(2c) in the operate condition surpasses switching threshold, under situation about not surpassing, move on to step (9b), the searcher (2a)~(2c) that is in the operate condition is carried out the distribution of other escape character.
Surpassing under the situation of switching threshold, move on to step (9d).In step (9d), from distribute to the escape character with the corresponding searcher of equalization result (2a)~(2c) that is determined level Y (n) that surpasses switching threshold, detect base station B.Then, give escape character and the de-spread timing that refers to that the incoming level junior distributes base station B in (3b)~(3d).
In step (9e), the control transmitting system is to the base station B of A notice in base station as moving target.In step (9f), checking refers to whether (3a)~(3d) all uses the escape character of identical base station.When not being when all being identical base station, be judged as to switch and do not finish to move on to step (9a), proceed cell diversity and handle.On the other hand, under the situation of the escape character that all uses identical base station, finish cell diversity and handle.
As described above, in Rake receiver of the present invention, detect translational speed,, make and forget that factor alpha becomes big, has improved the sensitivity that increases for the signal strength signal intensity from base station B along with detected translational speed high speed from the change of extracting the position.
Like this, as shown in Figure 11, in the switching threshold when identical high-speed mobile, for variation w0 in the equalization result who is determined level Y (n) who forgets being calculated under the certain situation of factor alpha, in Rake receiver of the present invention, make and forget that factor alpha becomes big, thus, be determined the equalization result's of level Y (n) the leading dt in forward position of variation W1.
That is, Rake receiver of the present invention when high-speed mobile, surpasses the timing advance of switching threshold, thus, can seek rapidization of the detection of base station B, and the call drop when suppressing to switch.
In Rake receiver of the present invention, along with the translational speed high speed, the quantity of the searcher that moves is increased, thus, under the situation that such path changes hardly when not mobile, there is not the situation that makes the more meaningless action of searcher.Otherwise path such when high-speed mobile changes under the violent situation, can make more searcher action.Like this, can alleviate consumed power along with path change corresponding to translational speed.
And, in Rake receiver of the present invention, under the situation of extracting continuous part sampling from the digital signal of being taken a sample by A/D converter (1) out, the position that is conceived to the sampling that adapts to extract phase changes along with high-speed mobile, goes out translational speed from the change-detection of this position.Like this, in Rake receiver of the present invention, do not need to be provided with separately transducers such as the accelerometer that detects translational speed and gyro, just can detect translational speed.
And, in Rake receiver of the present invention owing to can go up show detected translational speed at display part (6), can to user's vision notify the translational speed of this machine.
The present invention is not limited in the foregoing description.For example, in the above-described embodiments, in order to improve the sensitivity that increases for intensity, and, make and forget that factor alpha becomes big along with the translational speed high speed from the signal of base station B.But, also can replace it, for example,, set switching threshold lowlyer along with the translational speed high speed, also can improve the sensitivity that increases for intensity from the signal of base station B.
As described above, in the present invention, the translational speed of this machine of detecting, along with detected translational speed becomes at a high speed, raising is for the detection sensitivity of the intensity of the received signal of the de-spread of path detection device, therefore, and when this machine high-speed mobile, the detection sensitivity of received signal uprises, and can detect the signal from the communication counterpart platform rapidly.The Rake receiver of the call drop in the time of like this, can providing a kind of energy to suppress to switch.
And, in the present invention, detect the translational speed of this machine, along with detected translational speed becomes at a high speed, the amount of action of de-spread device is increased, therefore, when stopping and under the low speed situation that such path changes hardly when moving, only make the de-spread device action of minority.Otherwise, when high-speed mobile, under the violent situation of the change in such path, make more de-spread device action.That is, can provide a kind of Rake receiver, one side can change the corresponding consumed power that alleviates with the corresponding path of translational speed on one side.
