Embodiment
In the multi-carrier receiver system, what RSSI indicated is the multicarrier gross energy, if indicate the energy of every carrier wave, needs a plurality of RF links.The precise decreasing that factors such as discreteness, the detection tube dynamic range of simulation part of devices is little can cause RSSI to detect brings a lot of inconvenience for like this design and debugging, is unfavorable for producing in batches.
In view of present device level, can adopt the form of software radio to realize multi-carrier receiver, and RSSI indication is the signal energy of every carrier wave, improve for system design and performance and all be beneficial to.Fig. 3 is the multi-carrier receiving signal strength indicating structure block diagram of employing software radio of the present invention.
Below with the method and apparatus that has the received signal intensity indication frequently of the concrete structural wideband overloading of device now.Be embodied as the feasibility that example illustrates method and apparatus of the present invention with the indication of Node B 2 carrier wave received signal intensity.Wherein, first radio-frequency filter among Fig. 3 is a duplexer, mainly is that the filtering band is outer spuious; Low noise amplifier LNA adopts SGA-4586; Second radio-frequency filter adopts LE18A; Low-converter adopts SME1400B-17; Intermediate frequency amplifier adopts SGA-6486; The variable gain controller adopts AA113-310; The anti-filter that mixes repeatedly adopts IF Surface Acoustic Wave Filter LE88F; Analog to digital converter ADC adopts AD80101; Received signal processor adopting ISL5416.
For adopting digital-if architecture to realize that 2 carrier receiver systems are example, determine that the frequency of IF Surface Acoustic Wave Filter and sample frequency are very crucial, according to Nyquist sampling criterion, can learn that the pass of IF frequency and sample frequency is f IF = ( 2 n + 1 ) 4 f S . By the combination interference analytical calculation, obtain IF-FRE f IFBe chosen as 172.8MHz, sampling rate f SBe 61.44MHz.Because 2 carrier signals exist jointly before the ADC, and are saturated in order not make ADC, influence accuracy of detection, need choose reasonable Spurious Free Dynamic Range SFDR.
In order to detect the RSSI value of every carrier wave, need be after digital NCO, channel filtering, detect RSSI before the AGC.According to the corresponding relation of AGC function and input power, learn that the RSSI detected value is gain and the reference power sum of AGC gain, numerical-control attenuator VGC, referring to equation (1).
P RSSI=k×(G AGC-G REF)+P REF+G VGC (1)
Wherein, G AGCBe the gain of AGC, G VGCBe the gain of variable controller, P REF, k, G REFBe constant.
From top equation (1) as can be known: the absolute precision that RSSI detects is the function of AGC gain, variable controller VGC.According to the 3GPP standard, the scope that RSSI detects is-103dBm~-73dBm.In device of the present invention the inside, the variable gain controller is a numerical-control attenuator, and its purpose mainly is decay to occur at neighboring trace, when blocking these large-signals, and other situation following time is straight-through, and the decay controlling value is 0dB.Therefore, in the 3GPP critical field, the AGC gain function that the RSSI detected value is.
P RSSI=k×(G AGC-G REF)+P REF (2)
Fig. 4 is the actual table with test results of the invention process 2 carrier wave received signal intensity indication.Fig. 5 is the actual detected graph of a relation of the invention process 2 multi-carrier receiving signal strengths indication.The RSSI accuracy of detection comprises absolute precision and relative accuracy, and relative accuracy is ± 4dB that absolute precision is ± 0.5dB.In order to embody the advantage of the method and apparatus that RSSI of the present invention detects, so just need analyze from absolute precision and relative accuracy.
At first analyze the RSSI absolute precision, Fig. 6 is the 2 carrier wave received signal intensity indication absolute precision graph of a relation of apparatus of the present invention.From equation (2) as can be known, the RSSI absolute precision is only relevant with the AGC gain, but the bandwidth range of operation of receiver is 60MHz, and the ambient temperature of work is-5 ℃~55 ℃.The frequency response of many analogue devices is inconsistent in the 60MHz bandwidth, for identical input power, the value that detects just there are differences, in order to overcome this shortcoming, raising reports precision, apparatus of the present invention can adopt the frequency scanning calibration, is step-length with 200kHz, in the 60MHz scope, write down the poor of detection and reference value, have the FLSH the inside then.Similar with the principle of frequency response, in range of temperature, the change in gain of tunnels analogy device is bigger, cause RSSI to detect and have very mistake,, also need temperature is scanned in order to reduce the influence of variations in temperature to its precision, optional 0.5 ℃ or 1 ℃ of step-length, there are the FLASH the inside in temperature and the corresponding data that detects difference, and the value that at every turn reports just need compensate into the difference of this frequency response and variations in temperature correspondence, can improve absolute precision like this.
Next analyzes the RSSI relative accuracy, and relative accuracy is meant poor that input signal changes and detected value changes, and Fig. 7 is the 2 carrier wave received signal intensity indication relative accuracy graph of a relation of apparatus of the present invention.Suppose that certain moment input signal power is changed to Δ P, learns that according to equation (2) difference of RSSI detected value is k * Δ G AGC, then the RSSI relative accuracy is Δ P-k * Δ G AGCBecause Δ P, k be constant, so, the RSSI relative accuracy only with Δ G AGCRelevant, that is to say that the RSSI relative accuracy only has relation with the AGC algorithm.Relative accuracy is improved, just means that also the AGC linearity needs to improve.In order to satisfy linear requirement all, adopt superior cordic algorithm to realize the computing of I/Q amplitude, avoid I 2/ Q 2Computing.Helps the raising of operation efficiency like this, save the chip hardware resource, and the cordic algorithm computing adopts 8 clock cycle, like this AGC gain the precision that calculates can 0.00013dB, satisfy required precision fully.
At last, this checkout gear also can be used for detecting multi-carrier receiver ACS (Adjacent Channel Selection), because RSSI indicates the performance number of every carrier wave, can map out the ACS performance by the parameter variation, save instrument and raise the efficiency for producing in batches later on.
