Definitions

  • the invention relates to a distributed antenna system for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals from and to one or several user equipments.
  • WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
  • IEEE 802.11 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
  • HSPA+ High Speed Packet Access
  • a sender unit and a receiver unit comprises at least two antennas, respectively, whereby a plurality of independent radio channels may be established between the devices.
  • the sender unit and the receiver unit comprise signal processing means to make use of said different RF transmission channels.
  • the way of providing coverage, when a user equipment moves away from the isotropic antenna effects a reliable transmission and a data throughput of radio frequency signals between the antenna and the user equipment.
  • the invention enables MIMO communication along guided routes outside buildings but also inside an elongated building structure, in particular inside a railway tunnel or a road tunnel.
  • a particularly efficient communication between the user equipment and a transceiver over the distributed antenna system may be accomplished, because the inventive distributed antenna system can advantageously support multiple simultaneous communication paths to establish radio frequency transmission channels allowing data rates even above the theoretical Shannon limit.
  • the different polarizations provide a parameter to identify/distinguish between the different radio frequency transmission channels by the user equipment and by the antenna system itself.
  • a first MIMO channel may be realized with signals being radiated from a first radiating waveguide with a first polarization
  • a second MIMO channel may be realized with signals being radiated from a second radiating waveguide with a second polarization
  • the first polarization is substantially orthogonal to the second polarization. Therefore, the at least first and second radiating waveguides are configured to emit and receive radio frequency signals independently of each other. This feature, in addition to the usage of more than one radiating waveguide, provides a further parameter to create and identify different radio frequency transmission channels supported by the antenna system.
  • the at least first and second radiating waveguides run substantially into the same direction and/or are at least in sections aligned parallel to each other.
  • these configurations allow a continuously substantially equal coverage for example along the elongated building structure.
  • the radiation power level can be reduced for user equipments moving along the at least two radiating waveguides if a smooth radio frequency signal field strength distribution along the radiating waveguides is provided.
  • the radio frequency transmission properties of different radio frequency channels enabled by the radiating waveguides can be tuned, e.g. to achieve different delay characteristics.
  • the at least first and second radiating waveguides are lengthwise arranged adjacent to each other.
  • one or several first radiating waveguide(s) of the at least two radiating waveguides comprise(s) first slots and a longitudinal axis of each of the first slots is aligned substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the one or several first radiating waveguide(s). Therefore, the one or several first radiating waveguide(s) running along a horizontal direction can emit radio frequency signals with a horizontal polarization.
  • one or several second radiating waveguide(s) of the at least two radiating waveguides comprise(s) second slots and a longitudinal axis of each of the second slots is aligned substantially transversely to a longitudinal direction of the one or several second radiating waveguide(s).
  • the one or several second radiating waveguide(s) running along a horizontal direction therefore can radiate and/or receive radio frequency signals with a different polarization as the radio frequency signals radiated and/or received by the one or several first radiating waveguide(s).
  • a transverse orientation of slots within a radiating waveguide is also possible. It is further possible to provide one specific radiating waveguide with different types of slots. Of course, more than two radiating waveguides may also be provided to form a distributed antenna system according to an embodiment.
  • the distance between the radiating waveguides can be substantially constant along the radiating waveguides and can be equal to or greater than e.g. a diameter of a radiating waveguide.
  • the adjacent arrangement allows an easy installation of the distributed antenna system while still providing the multichannel capability to implement a MIMO transmission scheme.
  • the adjacent arrangement of radiating waveguides may be mounted to a building wall by means of standoffs, which define a predetermined spacing between the wall and the radiating waveguides.
  • two or more radiating waveguides comprise elliptical cross sections and each casing of the two or more radiating waveguides comprises a corrugation.
  • Such a geometrical structure of the radiating waveguides allows an eased installation of the distributed antenna system, because each radiating waveguide may be installed as a whole piece by rewinding the radiating waveguide from a coil and by allowing also an installation on curved walls.
  • the at least first and second radiating waveguides are arranged on a height above a floor corresponding to a region of a window of a passing vehicle, in particular a train or a car, or corresponding to a region of a head of a passing person.
  • the first and second radiating waveguides provide coverage in the area of a user equipment. So the distance between the radiating waveguides and the user equipment is reduced and persons are less exposed to electromagnetic radiation.
  • a building structure comprises one or several of the distributed antenna systems and the at least two radiating waveguides are arranged on a side wall or on a ceiling inside the building structure or a first one of the at least two radiating waveguides is arranged on a first side wall and a second one of the at least two radiating waveguides is arranged on a second side wall opposite to the first side wall inside the building structure.
  • This configuration provides coverage in a cross section of the building structure which is especially adapted for a user equipment with antennas on top of a passing vehicle.
  • the building structure is an elongated building structure such as a railway tunnel or a road tunnel.
  • the configuration with at least two radiating waveguides at opposite side walls provides coverage from both sides of the elongated building structure and therefore the configuration provides reliability of the communication between the two radiating waveguides and the user equipment. For example, one broken radiating waveguide does not lead to a complete collapse of the communication, as the other radiating waveguide can still be operated.
  • a vehicle comprises one or several of the distributed antenna systems and the at least two radiating waveguides are arranged on a side wall or on a ceiling inside the vehicle or a first one of the at least two radiating waveguides is arranged on a first side wall and a second one of the at least two radiating waveguides is arranged on a second side wall opposite to the first side wall inside the vehicle.
  • the distributed antenna system can be also used in vehicles such as planes, busses, cars, trains or metros.
  • a communication system comprises the one or several distributed antenna systems and the communication system further comprises a host unit and at least two radio frequency transceiver units, each of the at least two radiating waveguides is connected to a respective transceiver unit, and the host unit coordinates the transmission and/or reception of radio frequency signals by the at least two radiating waveguides.
  • the host unit of the distributed antenna system is configured to transmit and/or receive radio frequency signals according to a multiple-input multiple-output transmission scheme.
  • the host unit is connected to a backhaul network, and the host unit is configured to receive downlink data from the backhaul network and to transmit corresponding radio frequency downlink signals by means of the at least two radiating waveguides, and the host unit is configured to receive radio frequency uplink signals by means of the at least two radiating waveguides to transmit corresponding uplink data to the backhaul network.
