Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of wireless communication system that is applied to, particularly a kind of being applied in time division duplex (the Time Division Duplex) communication system, subscriber terminal equipment carries out the method for search of initial zone (Initial Cell Search).
Background technology
Nineteen forty-six, the Bell Laboratory of the U.S. has just proposed the service area of mobile phone is divided into several sub-districts, and a base station is established in each sub-district, constitutes honeycomb (Cellular) the mobile communication new ideas of cellular communication system.1978, this system succeedd in the Chicago,U.S test, and formally puts it into commercial operation in nineteen eighty-three.The employing of cellular system makes identical frequency to reuse, thereby has increased the capacity of mobile communication system greatly, has adapted to the desirability that mobile communication subscriber increases suddenly.The development of cell mobile communication systems experienced one from the simulation net to digital network, from frequency division multiple access (FDMA) to time-division multiple access (TDMA) with the process of code division multiple access (CDMA).
Along with development of times, people comprise the requirement to communication quality and class of business etc. to the requirement of communication, and are also more and more higher.The third generation (3G) mobile communication system is grown up in order to satisfy this requirement just.It is as basic point of departure with global general-use, system synthesis, and attempt to set up the mobile comprehensive service digital network in a whole world, the function of various mobile communication system such as comprehensive honeycomb, wireless, paging, cluster, mobile data, mobile-satellite, aerial and sea, provide and the professional compatibility of fixed telecommunication network, multiple speech and the non-speech service that quality is suitable, carry out the global roaming of pocket personal terminal, thus realize human dream of anywhere, any time and anyone ideal that communicates.
That most critical is radio transmission techniques (RTT) in the 3-G (Generation Three mobile communication system).The RTT candidate motion that International Telecommunications Union in 1998 collects: except that 6 satellite interface technical schemes, the terrestrial wireless interfacing has 10 schemes, is divided into two big class: CDMA and TDMA, and wherein CDMA occupies an leading position.In CDMA technology, International Telecommunications Union has accepted 3 kinds of standards at present altogether, i.e. the TD-SCDMA standard of the CDMA 2000 of the W-CDMA of Europe and Japan, the U.S. and China.
Compare with other 3G (Third Generation) Moblie standard, TD SDMA (Time Division Synchronous Code-Division Multiple Access, abbreviation TD-SCDMA) system has adopted many exclusive advanced technologies, and has all had outstanding advantage aspect the technology, economic two.TD-SCDMA adopts time division duplex (Time Division Duplex, TDD), smart antenna (SmartAntenna), joint-detection technology such as (Joint Detection), the availability of frequency spectrum is very high, can solve the problem of high population density area frequency resource anxiety, and have potential advantages aspect the multimedia services such as asymmetric mobile data such as internet browsing and video request program.
As shown in Figure 1, be the example of a typical cell mobile communication systems.This system is by a plurality of sub-districts 10
1-10
N(10) constitute, a base station (Base Station) 11 is wherein respectively arranged in each sub-district
1-11
N(11), the subscriber terminal equipment (UserEquipment is abbreviated as UE) 12 that in this sub-district service range, has some simultaneously
1-12
N(12).Each subscriber terminal equipment 12 by with affiliated Serving cell 10 in base station 11 keep being connected, finish and other communication equipment between communication function.
Each after subscriber terminal equipment 12 starts, general and do not know its residing position and should select which base station 11 (perhaps the sub-district 10) to carry out relevant up access (Uplink Access) and operate.The process that subscriber terminal equipment selects the sub-district to insert is commonly referred to as " search of initial zone " (InitialCell Search) process.The purpose that subscriber terminal equipment 12 carries out search of initial zone is to select suitable working frequency points, and on this frequency, obtain with certain sub-district 10 in the down-going synchronous of base station 11, understand the relevant system broadcast message that this base station 11 sends simultaneously---according to these information, subscriber terminal equipment 12 could begin relevant up access procedure, and final set up with this base station 11 between be connected.
As shown in Figure 2, be the frame structure schematic diagram of TD-SCDMA system.This structure is according to low spreading rate time division duplex (LCR-TDD) pattern (1.28Mcps) among 3G collaborative project (3GPP) the standard TS 25.221 (Release 4), perhaps provides among China Wireless Telecommunication Standar (CWTS) standard TSM 05.02 (Release3).The spreading rate of TD-SCDMA system is 1.28Mcps, each radio frames (RadioFrame) 20
0, 20
1(20) length is 5ms, i.e. 6400 chips (for 3GPP LCR-TDD system, each radio frames length is 10ms, and the subframe (subframe) that can be divided into two length be 5ms, and wherein each subframe comprises 6400 chips).Wherein, the radio frames in each TD-SCDMA system (the perhaps subframe in the LCR system) 20 can be divided into 7 time slots again (TS0～TS6) 21
0-21
6(51), and two pilot time slots: descending pilot frequency time slot (DwPTS) 22 and uplink pilot time slot (UpPTS) 24, and protection (Guard) 23 at interval.Further, the TS0 time slot 21
0Be used to bearing system broadcast channel and other possible downlink traffic channel; And TS1～TS6 time slot 21
1-21
6Then be used to carry the uplink and downlink Traffic Channel.It is synchronous that uplink pilot time slot (UpPTS) 24 and descending pilot frequency time slot DwPTS time slot 22 are used to set up initial uplink and downlink respectively.TS0～TS6 time slot 21
0-21
6Length is 0.675ms or 864 chips, wherein comprises data segment DATA1 (27) and DATA2 (29) that two segment lengths are 352 chips, and a middle segment length is the training sequence of 144 chips---in lead sign indicating number (Midamble) sequence 28.The Midamble sequence is significant at TD-SCDMA, comprise cell ID, channel estimating and synchronously modules such as (comprising Frequency Synchronization) all to use it.The protection that DwPTS time slot 22 comprises 32 chips at interval 30 and one long be descending synchronous code (SYNC-DL) code word 25 of 64 chips, its effect is cell ID and sets up initial synchronisation; And the UpPTS time slot comprise one long be uplink synchronous code (SYNC-UL) code word 26 of 128 chips, subscriber terminal equipment utilizes it to carry out relevant up access procedure.
According to the relevant definition among 3GPP standard TS 25.224 (Release 4) or the CWTS standard TSM 05.08 (Release3), in the TD-SCDMA system, after finishing initial frequency selection, on each candidate's frequency, initial cell search procedure can be divided into following four steps:
First step, DwPTS search: by with after 32 SYNC-DL code words 25 are carried out relevant treatment or similar processing with the received signal sequence altogether, obtain (roughly) synchronizing information of DwPTS time slot, detect most possible SYNC-DL code word simultaneously;
Second step, scrambler and Midamble codeword sequence detect: after obtaining the DwPTS coarse position information, can receive according to TD-SCDMA frame structure user terminal and to be positioned at TS0 (21
0) on P-CCPCH (Primary Common Control Physical Channel) channel on Midamble part received signal 28.Because each SYNC-DL code word 25 corresponding code character (Code Group), 4 possible Midamble codeword sequences have been comprised, therefore by after the received signal of these 4 possible code words and the last Midamble part of TS0 is carried out relevant treatment or similar processing, can the system of detecting adopt wherein which Midamble codeword sequence; Because there are one-to-one relationship in scrambler (Scrambling Code) and Midamble code word, so scrambler obtains after also can detecting the Midamble codeword sequence simultaneously;
Third step, the control multi-frame is synchronous: in the TD-SCDMA system by SYNC-DL sign indicating number 25 being carried out QPSK (quarternary phase-shift keying (QPSK)) modulation and determining to control the beginning of multi-frame (Control Multi-frame) according to the phase modulation pattern on the SYNC-DL code word 25 in continuous four frames.User terminal is by determining that to the detection that receives modulation phase pattern on the SYNC-DL character signal control multi-frame is synchronous;
The 4th step, read BCCH (broadcast channel) information: after acquisition control multi-frame was synchronous, just can know had the BCCH system broadcast message to exist on which frame; User terminal carries out demodulation (Demodulation) and decoding (Decoding) to the reception data on the P-CCPCH of these frames, carries out Cyclic Redundancy Check then; If verification is passed through, then this piece BCCH information is considered to effectively and is delivered to high level, and the initial cell process successfully finishes.
The method of search of initial zone and device design thereof are one of important topics in the TD-SCDMA system design.On the one hand, because subscriber terminal equipment carries out often having only before the search of initial zone (even without any) system information seldom, and (for example may face more abominable channel circumstance, when the user is in cell edge or is in the shadow region), therefore require designed initial cell searching method to have good performance, can find Target cell within a short period of time, have robustness (robustness) preferably again simultaneously, can adapt to various start environment; On the other hand, require this design to have rational complexity again, avoid since the software/hardware resource consumption too much or power consumption a series of problems of implementation of bringing such as too big.
Especially, in the TD-SCDMA system, the rapid design of aforementioned initial cell search first step is particularly crucial to global design: because this moment subscriber terminal equipment also without any timing information, so often need by after in whole radio frames, carrying out carrying out a series of slip associative operations and subsequent treatment between received signal and one or more (maximum 32) candidate SYNC-DL code word, could determine the SYNC-DL code word that relevant timing information and power are the strongest, begin the relevant processing of search of initial zone second step then.For example, at International Patent Application Publication No. WO03/028399, denomination of invention is among " small region search method and communication terminal device " (CELL SEARCH METHOD AND COMMUNICATION TERMINALAPPARATUS), a kind of rapid method and apparatus of described cell search first step of carrying out in the TD-SCDMA system is mainly disclosed, it is relevant at first all candidate SYNC-DL sign indicating numbers and received signal to be slided respectively in this method, and finds the candidate SYNC-DL code word of correlation maximum and correspondence position thereof as output.Though this method can reach optimum in theory performance, but, owing to adopted the method that all candidate SYNC-DL code words are correlated with reception digital sampled signal (being generally the sampling of 6 or 8 digital bits) respectively in whole frame length, so require very high to the disposal ability of software/hardware.Suppose 2 times of fast data samplings of received signal input employing (promptly corresponding each chip has two input samples inputs), and 6 bit quantizations are adopted in each sampling, because the SYNC-DL code word size is 64, the relevant addition and subtraction of each 64 12-bit of reality/imaginary part that needs of corresponding 64 samplings is operated, and finishes the relevant treatment needs of the SYNC-DL code word in each 5ms subframe like this:
64*2*6400*2＝1,638,400
First step is finished in individual 12-bit addition and subtraction operation.For the search of initial zone of TD-SCDMA system,, then in 5ms, finish altogether if carry out the relevant treatment of all 32 code words simultaneously:
1,638,400*32＝52,428,800
Individual 12-bit addition and subtraction operation, perhaps corresponding in 1s, finishing altogether:
52,428,800*200＝10,485,760,000
I.e. how 100 hundred million 12-bit addition and subtraction operations!---this is that generally institute is unapproachable for present commercial software/hardware disposal ability.Therefore,, often can only in each 5ms subframe, only carry out the relevant treatment of a collection of several candidate SYNC-DL code words (for example 2 or 4 code words), and all candidate SYNC-DL code words are divided into many batches handle in order to realize this device.The purpose of doing like this is the requirement that reduces the software/hardware disposal ability, but the cost of being paid is to have elongated to carry out the rapid time that spends of initial cell search first step.For example, suppose to handle in each subframe 2 two candidate SYNC-DL code words, and correlated results carried out 5 frames on average improved the detection performance afterwards, like this, finish relevant treatment, need altogether all 32 candidate SYNC-DL code words:
(32/2)*5*5＝400ms
Finish.Therefore, how reducing the complexity of this correlator, guarantee again simultaneously to satisfy certain designing requirement with the detection performance synchronously, is one of key issue that is faced in the initial cell search procedure design of TD-SCDMA system.
Carry out slip relevant treatment that all SYNC-DL code words are carried out in the entire frame, at International Patent Application Publication No. WO01/074103, denomination of invention is among " a kind of cell initial method of CDMA digital mobile communication system " (METHOD OF CELL INITIAL SEARCH IN CDMA DIGITALMOBILE TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM), disclose a kind of method that adopts so-called " feature window " (Characteristic Window), carried out carrying out in the TD-SCDMA system method of the first step in the search of initial zone.The main thought of this method is, utilize the peculiar power envelope characteristic of DwPTS part in the TD-SCDMA frame structure, it is synchronous to carry out rough DwPTS earlier, near this synchronous points, carrying out the slip relevant treatment of all alternative SYNC-DL code words then, the SYNC-DL code word of selecting to have the maximal correlation peak value by back relatively is as detecting output, and simultaneously according to the appearance position of this maximum correlation peak carrying out synchronously accurate.This method initial cell search first step is divided into " slightly synchronous " suddenly and " synchronously thin " two steps carry out, thereby it is relevant to have avoided sliding in entire frame, so its processing complexity is compared reduction greatly with aforementioned optimal case.But, the performance of this scheme depends on the validity of its " feature window " method to a great extent, owing to only adopted power information, cause this method based on the DwPTS envelope trait, under low Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) condition, particularly during SINR＜0dB, be difficult to find at short notice correct DwPTS position; On the other hand, since distinctive each the time slot relative power envelope of TDD signal rise and fall may be bigger characteristic, when receiving the data of entire frame, often require the method for the automatic gain control (AGC) of employing segmentation to adjust input signal---under the situation of this AGC effect, it is still obvious whether the power envelope characteristic of DwPTS part still can be retained or it is characterized in that, still remains further to be studied.
Number is 200410025693.6 at Chinese patent in Chinese patent application, denomination of invention is among " initial cell searching method in the TDS-CDMA system and device " (INITIAL CELL SEARCHMETHOD AND APPARATUS IN TD-SCDMA SYSTEM), disclose a kind of " 1 bit " relevant method and apparatus that adopted, carried out carrying out in the TD-SCDMA system method of the first step in the search of initial zone.The core of this method is only to adopt the sign bit of input signal to carry out relevant treatment, can simplify traditional correlator configuration greatly like this, and complexity is reduced greatly.And the Computer Simulation under multiple channel circumstance shows, owing to the performance loss that the relevant treatment structure that adopts this low complex degree is brought is also less, generally only in 2dB; Should require also than adopting traditional correlation technique to decrease with the control precision of device by " 1 bit " correlation technique simultaneously AGC.
Above two kinds of methods that are applied to carry out in the TD-SCDMA system first step in the search of initial zone of Jie Shaoing, though complexity is relatively low, and the time and the power consumption of cost are all relatively low, but all are to be cost with to a certain extent performance loss inevitably.This also means, adopt the method for these suboptimums (suboptimum), under that is the situation that Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio is lower abominable at the dissemination channel environment, its correct detection probability is compared with best practice to have to a certain degree and is descended, and the probability of the testing result of output error has simultaneously also risen.
Like this, in order to reduce the adverse effect that the error detection result that may export suddenly owing to initial cell search first step brings, require follow-up search of initial zone step can find this mistake as soon as possible, thereby cell search procedure is carried out related detection again before can returning, and perhaps abandons the cell search process on this frequency.Number be 03151479.0 in Chinese patent application, name is called in " method and apparatus that detects middle guiding code sequence in the TDS-CDMA system " (MIDAMBLE SEQUENCE DETECTION METHOD ANDAPPARATUS IN TD-SCDMA SYSTEM), a kind of method and apparatus is provided: this method and apparatus can quantize to calculate " confidence level " of the Midamble code word that detects by the relevant output of other candidate Midamble code word in the relevant output group of maximum likelihood Midamble code word is compared.And, only after should " confidence level " surpassing a default threshold value, think that just detected Midamble code word is effectively and export; Otherwise, think that certain " mistake " situation takes place.Here so-called " mistake " situation comprises the rapid detected SYNC-DL code word of (1) initial cell search first step or corresponding frame synchronization position is wrong; (2) channel circumstance is too abominable, and promptly Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio is too low; (3) input does not have the TD-SCDMA signal carrier on the frequency, perhaps the TD-SCDMA signal too a little less than.After " confidence level " of detecting Midamble code word and a default threshold value are compared, this method and apparatus can produce " acceptance " or " refusal " sign---that is, if detected Midamble code word has higher " confidence level ", then search of initial zone second step produces one " acceptance " sign; Otherwise, will produce one " refusal " sign.
As shown in Figure 3, be the schematic diagram of an example of the serial iteration that comprises first, second step of search of initial zone of a kind of TD-SCDMA of being applied to system.General, when carrying out the TD-SCDMA search of initial zone, at first carry out initial cell search first step rapid 31, be used for detection power the strongest SYNC-DL code word and sync bit thereof, carry out search of initial zone second step 32 then, be used for output, detect the Midamble code word in the corresponding code character of SYNC-DL code word according to initial cell search first step rapid 31.So just finished " iteration " that once comprise first, second step of initial cell.In the example shown,, then must carry out another time iteration that is return that to re-execute initial cell search first step rapid 33, export according to it then and then carry out initial cell second step 34 because search of initial zone second step has produced " refusal " sign.This time search of initial zone second step has produced " acceptance " sign, so the termination of iterations process, and according to detected SYNC-DL code word and Midamble code word, search of initial zone third step 35 is carried out in subsequent continuation.General, along with the increase of iterations, the correct probability of success that detects also can rise thereupon.But, in the serial iteration process of first, second step of search of initial zone shown in Figure 3, suppose that wherein first step has used the F1 frame to finish, second step has used the F2 frame to finish, and after having carried out altogether N iteration, has used altogether:
(F1+F2)*N
The time of frame.Because any one constantly can only move one of rapid or search of initial zone second step of initial cell search first step, so used time of this serial iteration method is longer, especially at Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio than after needing to carry out repeatedly iteration under the low condition, just can reach under the situation of certain performance.Especially, for the software/hardware structure of and second step rapid for the Parallel Implementation initial cell search first step of having the ability, this also can regard a kind of waste of resource as, and its cost is the increasing sharply of search of initial zone time under the abominable dissemination channel environment.

Embodiment
Following according to Fig. 4～Fig. 6, better embodiment of the present invention is described.
As shown in Figure 4, be the flow chart of a kind of simultaneous iteration of applying the present invention to TD-SCDMA system first, second step of search of initial zone, wherein initial cell search first step has suddenly and comprises " synchronously thick " substep and " synchronously thin " substep.
At first, in step 71, the iterations counter is set to zero.Safeguard an iterations counter in the described parallel iteration process, be used to add up the iterations that has carried out, therefore need when alternative manner begins, it be null value clearly.
Then, in step 72, carry out rapid " synchronously thick " substep of initial cell search first step, be used to detect the coarse synchronization position of DwPTS.For example, can adopt at International Patent Application Publication No. WO01/074103, denomination of invention is disclosed a kind of method that adopts so-called " feature window " (Characteristic Window) among " a kind of cell initial method of CDMA digital mobile communication system " (METHOD OF CELL INITIAL SEARCH IN CDMA DIGITAL MOBILETELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM), promptly utilize the peculiar power envelope characteristic of DwPTS part in the TD-SCDMA frame structure, it is synchronous to carry out rough DwPTS.Certainly, described step 72 also can adopt other to realize the rapid method of initial cell search first step, and does not change its input, output characteristic.
In step 73, " synchronously thin " step that " synchronously thick " step that the executed in parallel initial cell search first step is rapid and initial cell search first step are rapid.
On the one hand, testing result according to rapid " synchronously thick " substep of initial cell search first step in the step 72, " synchronously thin " substep that initial cell search first step is rapid, relevant by the received signal in 32 chip interval before and after candidate SYNC-DL code word and the DwPTS rough position is done, and relatively behind the related power peak value, detect one or more SYNC-DL code word and sync bit thereof.
On the other hand, carry out rapid " synchronously thick " substep of initial cell search first step once more, be used to detect the coarse synchronization position of DwPTS.
In step 74, " synchronously thin " step of " synchronously thick " step that executed in parallel search of initial zone second step, initial cell search first step are rapid and first step.
On the one hand, testing result according to rapid " synchronously thin " substep of initial cell search first step in the step 73, relevant by the candidate Midamble code word and the appropriate section of received signal are done, and relatively behind the correlated results, detect the Midamble code word in each code character successively respectively, and calculate " confidence level " of the Midamble code word that detects in each code character;
On the other hand, testing result according to rapid " synchronously thick " substep of initial cell search first step in the step 73, " synchronously thin " substep that initial cell search first step is rapid, relevant by the received signal in 32 chip interval before and after candidate SYNC-DL code word and the DwPTS rough position is done, and relatively behind the related power peak value, detect one or more SYNC-DL code word and sync bit thereof.
Simultaneously, carry out rapid " synchronously thick " substep of initial cell search first step once more, be used to detect the coarse synchronization position of DwPTS.
Subsequent, in step 75, " confidence level " of detected all the Midamble code words of second step of search of initial zone in the step 74 made comparisons with a threshold parameter T1 respectively.Wherein threshold parameter T1 is generally an arithmetic number.If wherein have at least " confidence level " of the Midamble code word that detects to surpass this thresholding T1, termination of iterations process and carry out subsequent operation then; Otherwise even " confidence level " of detected all the Midamble code words of search of initial zone second step all is no more than threshold parameter T1 in the step 74, then continues execution in step 76.If " confidence level " of the Midamble code word that detects surpasses this threshold parameter T1, illustrate that this detection Midamble code word has very high correct detection probability, therefore think that search of initial zone second step detects successfully in the step 74, so just can the finishing iteration process; Further, to own " confidence level " and surpass the output testing result of the Midamble codeword detection result of threshold parameter T1 as search of initial zone second step, offer follow-up search of initial zone step, be used to further obtain the relevant operation of cell information.For example, follow-up search of initial zone third step is distinguished detected SYNC-DL code word and Midamble code word result based on initial cell search first step is rapid with second step, can further search for the P-CCPCH piece, and it is synchronous to finish multi-frame.
In step 75, threshold parameter T1 chooses, and the performance of the simultaneous iteration of and second step rapid to described initial cell search first step significant effects.When the value of threshold parameter big more, mean that thresholding is strict more, thereby initial cell search first step is rapid and the probability of false detection of second step is just low more, the ability of the incident of debug simultaneously is also strong more, but this moment, correct detection probability also can be subjected to influence to a certain degree, and may prolong search time to a certain extent.On the other hand, when the value of threshold parameter is more little, mean that thresholding is loose more, though this moment, correct detection probability can improve, probability of false detection also can increase simultaneously, and the elimination ability of error event has also been weakened.And NF mistake is passed to subsequent step (for example search of initial zone third step and the 4th step), may increase search time greatly, and the more processing power of unnecessary consumption.In sum, consider at concrete applied environment and realization, should carefully select threshold parameter T1, carry out between each design objective repeatedly compromise after, make the overall performance of the simultaneous iteration of rapid and second step of described initial cell search first step reach optimum.
Subsequent, in step 76, with the value increase by of iterations counter.After step 76, the storage values in the iterations counter has write down the iterations of rapid and second step of the initial cell search first step finished.
Subsequent, in step 77, value and a default thresholding T2 of iterations counter compared.Wherein T2 is a positive integer.If iterations is no more than this thresholding, then return step 74, the new iteration once of beginning; Otherwise, termination of iterations process then, and carry out subsequent operation, for example on next frequency, restart one time initial cell search procedure.Along with the increase of first, second step iteration execution number of times of search of initial zone, the correct probability that detects also can increase (seeing below the simulation result that literary composition provides); But, also should control the upper limit of iterations, search in the time of the frequency overspending of poor signal quality avoiding.Therefore, the selection of threshold T 2 should be taken all factors into consideration according to practical situations and design object.
As shown in Figure 5, be the schematic diagram of an example applying the present invention to a kind of simultaneous iteration in TD-SCDMA system first, second step of search of initial zone.At first, carry out rapid " synchronously thick " substep 801 of initial cell search first step in the iteration first time.Then, according to its testing result that provides (comprising SYNC-DL code word and frame synchronization information), carry out rapid " synchronously thin " substep 803 of initial cell search first step in the iteration first time, be used for further detecting one or more SYNC-DL code word and corresponding sync bit thereof with maximum correlation peak; When carrying out search of initial zone second step 803, " synchronously thick " substep 802 that the initial cell search first step in the also parallel iteration second time of execution once more is rapid.Subsequent, according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thin " substep 803 of initial cell search first step, carry out search of initial zone second step 806, so just finished iteration for the first time; When carrying out search of initial zone second step 806,, carry out rapid " synchronously thin " substep 805 of initial cell search first step in the iteration second time also according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thick " substep 802 of initial cell search first step; Simultaneously, also parallel rapid " synchronously thick " substep 804 of initial cell search first step of carrying out once more in the iteration for the third time.In example, owing to find in the detected Midamble code word of search of initial zone second step 806 in the iteration first time, " confidence level " of neither one surpasses threshold parameter T1, promptly produced " refusal " signal, so still will proceed iterative process.Subsequent, according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thin " substep 805 of initial cell search first step, carry out search of initial zone second step 809, so just finished iteration for the second time; Carrying out search of initial zone second step 809 simultaneously,, carrying out for the third time rapid " synchronously thin " substep 808 of initial cell search first step in the iteration also according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thick " substep 804 of initial cell search first step; Simultaneously, also parallel rapid " synchronously thick " substep 807 of the initial cell search first step in the iteration of carrying out once more the 4th time.In example, still produced " refusal " signal owing to find search of initial zone second step 809 in the iteration second time, so still will proceed iterative process.Subsequent like this, according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thin " substep 808 of initial cell search first step, carry out search of initial zone second step 812, so just finished iteration for the third time; Carrying out search of initial zone second step 812 simultaneously,, carrying out rapid " synchronously thin " substep 811 of initial cell search first step in the 4th iteration also according to the testing result of rapid " synchronously thick " substep 807 of initial cell search first step; Simultaneously, also parallel rapid " synchronously thick " substep 810 of the initial cell search first step in the iteration of carrying out once more the 5th time.This time, second step 812 of the search of initial zone in the iteration has produced " acceptance " signal finally for the third time, shows to find to have at least " confidence level " of a detected Midamble code word to surpass threshold parameter T1, so iterative process is terminated.Like this, in the example shown, through after three iteration, completed successfully the task of rapid and second step of initial cell search first step, subsequent, according to initial cell search first step in the iteration for the third time rapid 804 and, " synchronously thin " step 808 and second step 812 of first step distinguish detected SYNC-DL code word and Midamble code word, execution search of initial zone third step 813, can further search for the P-CCPCH piece, it is synchronous to finish multi-frame.Like this, adopt the processing method of " streamline " formula, the different step in each time of executed in parallel iteration has made full use of the software/hardware resource of system, thereby can shorten the processing time greatly, improves disposal ability.
As shown in Figure 6, for using the performance chart that simultaneous iteration of the present invention carries out TD-SCDMA system search of initial zone first and second steps, wherein initial cell search first step comprises " synchronously thick " substep and " synchronously thin " substep suddenly again.Here, adopted International Patent Application Publication No. WO01/074103, denomination of invention is disclosed a kind of method that adopts so-called " feature window " (Characteristic Window) among " a kind of cell initial method of CDMA digital mobile communication system " (METHOD OF CELL INITIAL SEARCH IN CDMA DIGITAL MOBILETELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM), promptly utilize the peculiar power envelope characteristic of DwPTS part in the TD-SCDMA frame structure, it is synchronous to carry out rough DwPTS.Simultaneously, in order to improve the power that is detected as in the successive iterations, the power envelope that calculates in " synchronously thick " substep with each initial cell first step has carried out on average with power envelope in the iteration before.Initial cell second step then is that the Chinese patent number of patent application is 03151479.0, name is called in " method and apparatus that detects middle guiding code sequence in the TDS-CDMA system " (MIDAMBLE SEQUENCE DETECTION METHOD AND APPARATUSIN TD-SCDMA SYSTEM), disclosed a kind of method that has comprised " confidence level " that the Midamble code word that detects is provided.Each step improves the detection performance after all having adopted five subframes and having carried out on average.Simulation result has provided the simulation performance curve of corresponding 1～18 iterative processing.Channel condition is white Gaussian noise channel (AWGN).As seen from Figure 6, along with the increase of iterations, the correct detection probability index of gained is also improved constantly.In addition, the probability of false detection of this method almost nil (on the performance chart shown in not being drawn in).General, when the dissemination channel environment better, that is under the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio conditions of higher (for example when DwPTS_Ec/N0 be higher than-during 2.5dB), general only need operation initial cell search first step rapid (comprising " synchronously thick " substep and " synchronously thin " substep) and second step respectively once, just can successfully detect information such as SYNC-DL code word and Midamble code word.And when the dissemination channel environment more abominable, that is under the lower condition of Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (for example when DwPTS_Ec/N0 be in-7.5dB is between-the 2.5dB time), because rapid " synchronously thick " step of initial cell search first step only detects based on power envelope here, under low Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio condition, need iteration more repeatedly just can reach the correct detection probability search performance of better (for example being higher than 90%).For example, equal at DwPTS_Ec/N0-the 5.0dB point, need about six iteration just can reach 90% correct detection probability; And equaling at DwPTS_Ec/N0-the 7.5dB point, carried out just having reached after 18 iteration correct detection probability near 90%.
