Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for channel estimation of a mobile radio channel according to the preamble of claim 1 and a mobile radio receiver.
  • Each individual received signal has a different transit time, amplitude and Doppler shift in accordance with its transmission path.
  • the various received signals overlap either constructively or destructively on the antenna of a receiver and thereby make it more difficult to detect the useful data transmitted by the signals.
  • such multi-path propagation causes a radio signal time expanded channel pulse responses indicate perform the loan to a delay spread, and thus a shifted time "reference of the individual symbols of the transmission signal to one another.
  • W CDMA Wi-Code Division Multiplex
  • RAKE receivers special receivers
  • Such a RAKE receiver enables a clear gain through the use of multi-way signals which arrive at a receiving antenna of a mobile radio device with different delay times.
  • the signal coming from the antenna is processed in the receiver in several paths, the so-called "fingers" of the RAKE receiver.
  • Each of these fingers is opened with an optimized phase position of the pseudo-noise sequences that were used to encode a signal to be transmitted via the mobile radio channel U ⁇ DO t H "

  • a transmission time slot transmit so-called pilot bits for channel estimation. These pilot bits are used to calculate the channel coefficients valid during the respective slot.
  • the calculated channel coefficients are interpolated between two adjacent slots. This interpolation can lead to incorrect results if the channel coefficients calculated in neighboring slots that are used in the interpolation do not describe the same path of multipath propagation.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing an improved method for channel estimation which delivers more precise, more reliable results.
  • the invention includes the basic idea before interpolating those calculated from the impulse responses Channel coefficients to carry out a comparative check of the impulse responses in the two slots to determine whether the individual maxima can actually be assigned to the same propagation paths. Only those portions (especially maxima) of the channel impulse response are used for the interpolation mentioned that are to be assigned to the same transmission path in both slots.
  • the embodiment of the invention is preferably carried out by determining the time shift of the individual maxima or fingers of the pulse location that they experienced between the two time slots, and a subsequent threshold value discrimination of the time shift values.
  • the channel coefficients determined on the basis of the finger positions share the same transmission path (which is sometimes also referred to as "channel” by the specialists in this area) ) represent.
  • the predetermined threshold of discrimination is chip.
  • fingers 1 'and 1''and3' and 3 1 ' are to be used for an interpolation, but not fingers 2' and 2 ''.
  • the design of the inventive concept in terms of the device will normally be carried out by software, but it can also - at least in part - be supported by hard-wired logic.
  • the mobile radio receiving device embodying the device aspect can in principle be implemented both in a terminal (mobile phone) and in a base station, since the channel estimation mentioned can in principle be carried out both in the upward direction (in the uplink) and in the downward direction (in the downlink) .
