Description

Be used for providing the method for the forward link handoff of the wireless communication system that uses OFDM forward link and CDMA reverse link
Require the priority under 35 sections 119 in U.S.
The application requires the 60/438th, No. 666 of submission on January 7th, 2003, and title is the priority of the provisional application of " forward link handoff in the wireless communication system of use OFDM forward link and CDMA reverse link ".
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to data communication, relate more specifically to be used for carrying out on the forward link of wireless communication system the technology of handover, this wireless communication system uses multi-carrier modulation (for example OFDM) on the forward link and use CDMA on reverse link.
Background technology
Wireless communication system is widely used in providing multiple communication, for example voice, grouped data or the like.These systems can support multiple access system with multi-user communication by sharing the available system resource.This system can be based on code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), frequency division multiple access (FDMA), some other multiple access technique, perhaps their combination.Cdma system also can be designed as some well-known CDMA standards, for example cdma2000, IS-856, IS-95, W-CDMA and other standard carried out.
In direct sequence (DS) cdma system, narrow band signal is expanded on the whole system bandwidth on the time domain with a frequency expansion sequence.Some examples of this DS-CDMA system comprise those systems that carry out IS-2000, IS-95 and W-CDMA standard.Frequency expansion sequence can be pseudo-random number sequence (for example being used for IS-95 and IS-2000) or scramble sequence (for example being used for W-CDMA).The DS-CDMA system provides some advantage, for example is easy to support multichannel access, arrowband inhibition etc.
OFDM (OFDM) is divided into system bandwidth the subband of many (N) individual quadrature effectively, and subband is also referred to as tone, frequency band (frequency bin) usually, and frequency subchannels.In every period time interval of the bandwidth that depends on each subband, modulation symbol can be transmitted on each of N subband.OFDM can be used to prevent intersymbol interference (ISI), and intersymbol interference is that each character in the signal that has received all works to the character of its back in this signal and causes the phenomenon of its distortion thus.ISI is caused by the decline of the selectivity of the frequency in the multiplex (MUX).For preventing intersymbol interference, as well known in the art, the part of each OFDM symbol was repeated to send before transmission.
Owing to multiple reason, a kind of communication link uses a kind of modulation technique (for example in forward link OFDM technology) and complementary communication link uses another kind of modulation technique (for example in the reverse link CDMA technology) more favourable.But the use of multiple modulation technique may make some system operation complicated, the handover of the terminal between each base station in for example a plurality of systems.
Therefore this area exists a kind of demand, promptly needs a kind of technology that is used for carrying out handover on the forward link of mixed wireless communications system.

Embodiment
" demonstration " this speech refers to " explanation as an example, for example, " here.Here being called as the embodiment and the design of " demonstration " and not meaning that must be more superior or favourable than other embodiment and design.
Fig. 1 shows a wireless communication system 100 can carrying out forward link handoff technology mentioned in this article.Comprise a plurality of base stations in the system 100, each base station covers the corresponding geographical zone.For easy, Fig. 1 only shows 110a, 110b and three base stations of 110c.The base station also can be called as access point, Node B, perhaps other term.Depend on the context that this speech occurs, base station and/or its overlay area are also referred to as the sub-district usually.Be the increase capacity, the overlay area of each base station can be divided into a plurality of sectors.Each sector provides service by relevant base station transceiver subsystem (BTS).For one by the sub-district of sectorization, each sector that the base station of this sub-district can be included as this sub-district provides all BTS of service.For easy, following explanation supposes that each sub-district is divided into three sectors, and these three sectors provide service by three BTS that are positioned at the base station, and three BTS are located at the center of this sub-district successively.
Multiple terminal is typically distributing in the whole system.For easy, Fig. 1 only shows a terminal 120.Terminal also can be described as remote work station, travelling carriage, access terminal, subscriber equipment (UE), Wireless Telecom Equipment, perhaps other term.Can communicate with one or more BTS on the forward link or the one or more BTS on the reverse link in any each terminal of given time.This depends on whether this terminal works, whether transfer of data supports soft handover, whether this terminal at soft handoff state.Forward link (down link just) is meant the communication link from BTS to the terminal, and reverse link (up link just) is meant the communication link from the terminal to BTS.
For example, system controller 102 is connected on the base station 110 and can be further be connected with other system such as public switched telephone network (PSTN), Packet Data Network (PDN) etc.System controller 102 also can be called as base station controller (BSC), radio network controller (RNC), perhaps other term.102 pairs of coupled base stations of system controller are coordinated and are controlled.System controller 102 is further controlled the terminal of the route of the calling between each terminal of (1) system 100 and (2) system 100 and is connected to the route of the calling between other user of other system (for example PSTN) via this base station.
System 100 can be designed as in forward link (FL) and uses CDMA with multi-carrier modulation (MCM) in the reverse link (RL).Multi-carrier modulation can be OFDM (OFDM) technology or some other modulation technique or structure.The OFDM technology has some advantage, for example, has high data transmission capacity and the ability that prevents intersymbol interference (ISI).Be clarity, below discuss supposition system 100 and in forward link, use the OFDM technology, in reverse link, use CDMA technology.
For simplified system designs and improve the throughput of whole system, system 100 can be designed as and supports soft handover (SHO) and do not support in forward link in reverse link.By from a plurality of BTS to a terminal transmission redundant data to increase reliability of data transmission, obtain the soft handover on the forward link.But the redundancy in the forward link transmissions also can reduce power system capacity.
By making a plurality of BTS that are arranged in identical or different sub-district receive and handle the reverse link signal of self terminal, obtain the soft handover on the reverse link.If these a plurality of BTS serve a plurality of sectors in the same sub-district, the reverse link signal combination (is commonly called " softer handover " process (softerhandoff)) that comes self terminal that then before decoding, these BTS can be received.If these a plurality of BTS serve a plurality of sectors in the different districts, then each BTS can carry out independent process and decoding to the signal that receives from terminal, selects decoded data for one that system can be from these BTS then.In any case the soft handover on the reverse link can increase to the capacity that cost improves the reliability of rl transmission and further increases whole system with the signal processing amount of a plurality of BTS.Do not allow the data user to use some examples of the cdma system of soft handover to comprise (1) IS-856 system in forward link, be also referred to as the 1xEV-DO system, (2) IS-2000 system is also referred to as the 1xEV-DV system, and (3) W-CDMA system.
Each BTS passes to each terminal to data by forward link in its sector.Each BTS pilot signal transmitted on the forward link also in addition, this pilot signal can be positioned at each inside and outside terminal of this sector and receive and identify.If do not use soft handover in the forward link, then only receive the transmission of user's data designated from a BTS in any each active terminal of given time, this often is called as serving sector.When the serving sector of a terminal changes, hard handoff will take place on the forward link switch (perhaps being called for short handover).
1, forward link pilot signal
Each BTS sends a pilot signal (perhaps abbreviating " OFDM pilot signal " as) on the OFDM forward link, this pilot signal can be by terminal as multiple function, and for example channel estimating, timing and frequency are obtained, the power measurement of coherence data demodulation, received signal or the like.The detection that the OFDM pilot signal of BTS emission can improve each terminal of system in some sense.
Each BTS can be set to send its pilot signal on one group of specific subband.Contiguous BTS can be assigned to and different disjointly respectively organize subband so that their pilot signal mutually orthogonal in frequency domain.The pilot signal of each BTS can further be assigned to the specific orthogonal code mask (cover) of this BTS.Near BTS (for example distributing to those BTS of same group of subband) can be assigned with different orthogonal codes so that their pilot signal at the time-domain mutually orthogonal.The terminal of the orthogonality of the pilot signal in frequency domain and/or time domain in can the raising system is to the detection of these pilot signals and catch.
The OFDM pilot signal of each BTS can further be carried out scrambling with the specific scrambler of distributing to this BTS.Scrambler makes the terminal in pilot signal interference randomization and the further permission system discern each BTS uniquely based on the pilot signal that receives.
It is 10/359 that the various pilot transmission scheme that can be applicable to the OFDM forward link are recorded in the application number of submitting on February 7th, 2003,811, title is the U.S. Patent application of " pilot transmission scheme that is used for wireless multi-carrier communication system ", it transfers assignee of the present invention, is hereby expressly incorporated by reference.
2, the forward link handoff of starting terminal
A terminal of system can be constantly or is periodically monitored the forward link transmissions of sending from each BTS of system and judge and select which BTS as serving sector.In one embodiment, the selection of the serving sector power measurement that is based on the pilot signal that receives from BTS is made.Usually, can be based on any measurement of BTS signal quality, for example, signal to noise ratio (snr) is made the selection to serving sector.
Fig. 2 shows a flow chart of carrying out an embodiment of terminal-initiated forward link handover procedure 200.Process 200 can be carried out by terminal.
The power (step 212) of the OFDM pilot signal that receives from a plurality of BTS is measured in beginning, terminal.Terminal has the knowledge that receives the relevant information required with handling the OFDM pilot signal sent from the BTS of different sectors.These information depend on the specific pilot transmission scheme that system carries out.For above-mentioned application number is 10/359, the pilot transmission scheme of describing in 811 the U.S. Patent application, these information can comprise, for example, be used for that group subband of each BTS of pilot signal transmission, each BTS is used for covering its pilot signal before transmission orthogonal code (for example walsh code), and each BTS is used for its pilot signal of scrambling to realize BTS identification and randomized scrambler.It can be that the method for 10/359,811 U.S. Patent application is carried out according to above-mentioned application number that the pilot signal of being undertaken by terminal is handled.The output that pilot signal is handled is the pilot signal power of the measurement of each BTS of receiving of terminal.Then with the pilot signal power ordering (for example according to descending sort) (step 214) of the measurement of the BTS that receives.
A special case, if there is the subband of 512 OFDM forward links in system, nearly 10 in these subbands (for example, 50 subbands, subscript is respectively 10,20,30 ... 500) can be used as pilot subbands.Terminal can be measured the power of the pilot signal that receives on each subband in these pilot subbands and further to the average pilot signal power of the measurement that obtains BTS of the pilot signal power on these 50 pilot subbands.The function of the pilot signal power that usually, receives or the signal to noise ratio of pilot subbands can be used for the selection of serving sector.
Choose the serving sector (step 216) of the follow-up forward link data transmission of terminal then.Selection to serving sector is based on pilot signal power and (2) specific selection algorithms of the measurement of each BTS that (1) receive.Hysteresis during this algorithm can utilize and select handle avoids two table tennises between the serving sector to switch (that is, asking continually to change) between two approaching sectors of the pilot signal power that is received by terminal or signal to noise ratio.Hysteresis can be carried out by using different switching levels and timer or other mechanical device.For example, have only the pilot signal power some that has surpassed the measurement of current service sector when the pilot signal power of the measurement of this sector, terminal just can ask to be handed over to another serving sector.
Judge the new serving sector of selecting and current service sector whether identical (step 218) then.If the serving sector of this new selection is identical with the current service sector, then this process is got back to step 212.Otherwise terminal is sent hand-off request to selected serving sector, and the pilot signal power that this selecteed serving sector receives surpasses current service sector (step 220).Except hand-off request, terminal also can be sent other relevant information, for example, terminal estimate can successful demodulation maximum data rate.
For the hand-off request that receives from terminal, system can permit or refuse this request.This decision is based on that different factors as described below make.If hand-off request is licensed, then this permission will be informed terminal with signal form, follow new serving sector and send data by forward link to terminal.Otherwise terminal can continue from current service sector reception forward link data transmission.
To consider various factors/criteria in decision permission when still refusal is from hand-off request that terminal is sent.To the serving sector of terminal preferably to select not be must be the sector that the OFDM pilot signal power is the strongest or signal to noise ratio is maximum that terminal receives.Other factors also will be considered, and comprise the load capacity of this sector, every reverse link measurement that BTS makes terminal, the priority of terminal, the current service that obtains of terminal or the like.For example, the sector with forward link of low load is than high capacity forward link sector better choice, particularly when the difference of the pilot signal power of the measurement of these two sectors or signal to noise ratio is very little.Like this based on the cognition to the forward link loading condition of these BTS, the BTS of current service sector just can permit or refuse the handover application transmitted from terminal.
3, the forward link handoff of BTS startup
Based on the rl transmission of coming self terminal, forward link handoff also can be started by BTS.Based on the power of the reverse link pilot that receives from terminal or the measurement of signal to noise ratio, BTS can make forward link handoff and select.
Fig. 3 shows an embodiment flow chart that is used for carrying out the processing 300 of the forward link handoff that BTS starts.Handling 300 can be carried out by system.
Beginning, a plurality of BTS in the system measure the power (step 312) of the reverse link pilot that receives from terminal.For example, if terminal is sent pilot signal on the CDMA reverse link, then carry out despreading, remove mask (decovering) and add up by the reverse link pilot to coming self terminal of using CDMA pilot signal filter, each BTS can judge the average power of the pilot signal that receives from terminal.The processing of CDMA reverse link pilot is well-known in this area, no longer describes in detail here.The output that pilot signal is handled is the pilot signal power from the measurement of the BTS of terminal reception pilot signal.
Next be forward link data transmission selection serving sector (step 316) afterwards to terminal.It is to carry out from each BTS that terminal receives reverse link pilot by coordination that serving sector is selected.These BTS can unite which sector of judgement should be served terminal on the OFDM forward link.This serving sector selects to be based on that the power of the pilot signal that BTS measures and specific selection algorithm carry out, this algorithm can be identical with the algorithm of the forward link handoff of the used starting terminal of terminal also can be different.In addition, hysteresis can be used to avoid two table tennises between the serving sector to switch.
Judge then whether the serving sector of the new selection of terminal is same as the current service sector (step 318) of terminal.If the new serving sector of selecting is identical with the current service sector, then handles and get back to step 312.Otherwise it is handed over to new serving sector (step 320) can to send signaling to terminal.
With in like manner top, preferably the selecting of the serving sector of terminal not necessarily has the sector of the reverse link pilot power of the terminal that maximum receives.For example, the sector of a low loaded forward link of selection is a better choice than the sector of high capacity forward link, particularly under the very little situation of the difference between the power of being measured by these sectors that receives.Therefore these BTS will consider load and other relevant information when forward link handoff of decision startup changes the serving sector of this terminal.
4, the performance of forward link handoff
The forward link handoff of starting terminal can provide the forward link handoff more performance that starts than BTS.At first, because the selection of serving sector is based on the measurement on the OFDM forward link, so the handover of starting terminal can be more accurate.What on the contrary, the handover that starts of BTS was based on reverse link respectively measures and depends on average forward link and the correlation between the reverse chain channel.Secondly, the handover of starting terminal can be activated quickly than the handover that BTS starts.This is because the decision of handover is to be made based on the forward link measurement from a plurality of BTS by terminal.On the contrary, the handover of the handover that BTS starts decision is based on from the measurement on a plurality of BTS of a terminal and makes, and can cause the delay of some processing and transmission.
The optimality that serving sector is selected in the handover of starting terminal depends on the accuracy of the BTS power measurement that receives.The optimality that serving sector is selected in the handover that BTS starts depends on accuracy and the forward link of (2) OFDM modulation and the correlation or the coherence between the CDMA reverse link of (1) BTS power measurement.The degree that this forward/reverse link is relevant depends on the relevant degree between reverse link and the forward link decline process.If satisfy one of following two conditions, this decline correlation can be quite little: (1) forward direction and reverse link be transmitted on the different frequency bands and these two frequency bands between very big or (2) wireless channel in interval very big delay expansion is arranged.But the average characteristics of forward direction and reverse link should be similarly (based on the consideration in area), even these links experience incoherent decline process when coherence bandwidth (providing with the inverse that postpones expansion) is littler than two band separations.
Like this, terminal can ask forward link handoff to change its serving sector, and the OFDM pilot signal that the determining to be based on of serving sector receives by the forward link from a plurality of BTS is in the measurement of terminal.Based on load on the forward link of each sector and the getable relevant information of other BTS, the BTS on the serving sector can permit or refuse hand-off request.Can be used on the forward link depending on the quality of the wireless channel between selecteed serving sector and the terminal to the data transfer rate of the transfer of data of terminal.The forward link handoff that the forward link handoff that BTS starts can be used for combining with the forward link handoff of starting terminal or replacement terminal starts.
