Description

本発明は、既存の同時送受信機能を有していない基地局と同時送受信通信機能を備えた無線端末との間で擬似的に同時送受信通信を行う無線通信方法、無線通信システム及び無線基地局に関する。   The present invention relates to a wireless communication method, a wireless communication system, and a wireless base station that perform pseudo simultaneous transmission / reception communication between a base station that does not have an existing simultaneous transmission / reception function and a wireless terminal that has a simultaneous transmission / reception communication function. .

一般に、PHS(Personal Handy−phone System)の無線電話通信は、TDMA/TDD方式(Time Division Multiple Access/Time Division Duplex方式)で行われている。このPHSでは、例えば、1フレームが8スロットで構成され、無線端末から基地局への上り通信に4スロット、そしてその逆の基地局から無線端末への下り通信に4スロットが割当てられ、これらの4スロットの上り通信期間と同じく4スロットの下り通信期間とは異なるタイミングで行われる。   Generally, PHS (Personal Handy-phone System) wireless telephone communication is performed by a TDMA / TDD system (Time Division Multiple Access / Time Division Duplex system). In this PHS, for example, one frame is composed of 8 slots, 4 slots are allocated for uplink communication from the radio terminal to the base station, and 4 slots are allocated for downlink communication from the base station to the radio terminal. The timing is different from the 4-slot upstream communication period and the 4-slot downstream communication period.

このような従来のPHS無線通信では、通信速度が十分速くとれないので、通信速度を高める目的で、上り方向と下り方向の通信をそれらのキャリア周波数を異ならせて同時に行う同時送受信方式が提案されており、その開発が進められている(例えば、特開2003−273770号公報−特許文献1)。   In such conventional PHS wireless communication, since the communication speed cannot be sufficiently high, a simultaneous transmission / reception method is proposed in which uplink and downlink communications are performed simultaneously with different carrier frequencies for the purpose of increasing the communication speed. The development thereof is underway (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-273770-Patent Document 1).

このような同時送受信方式のPHS無線通信を実現するためには、基地局内の無線局、また無線端末それぞれの内部機能を既存のものから改変する必要があり、特に、基地局内の無線局の改変は設備費用が嵩むために容易には行えない。それで、同時送受信機能を備えた無線端末と既存の無線基地局との間で実質的に同時送受信ができるシステムが実現されれば、PHSの通信速度を高めることができる上に、既存の基地局を利用できるので設備費用の嵩まない利点がある。
特開2003−273770号公報
In order to realize the PHS wireless communication of the simultaneous transmission / reception method, it is necessary to modify the internal functions of the wireless station in the base station and each wireless terminal from the existing ones. In particular, modification of the wireless station in the base station Can not be easily done due to high equipment costs. Therefore, if a system capable of substantially simultaneous transmission / reception between a wireless terminal having a simultaneous transmission / reception function and an existing wireless base station is realized, the communication speed of the PHS can be increased and the existing base station can be increased. Can be used, and there is an advantage that the equipment cost is not increased.

次に、上記構成の無線通信システムによる同時送受信動作について説明する。TDMA/TDD方式のPHSでは、無線基地局が同時送受信機能を備えていない場合、この基地局と無線端末との間は、図5(a)に示すように、下り4スロット、上り4スロットの合計8スロットを1フレームとし、4スロット各々に異なる周波数を割当て、かつ、上り下り周波数は共通とし、第1スロットは制御チャネル(C−CH)、そして第2スロット〜第4スロットそれぞれに基地局−端末間の無線通信チャネルとして異なる周波数を割り当てる。そして、いま、基地局とある端末とが第2スロットの周波数F2で接続が確立したとすれば、下り期間の第2スロットに周波数F2で下り方向の通信がなされ、次に上り期間の第2スロットに周波数F2で上り方向の通信がなされる。つまり、通常のPHS無線通信では、1フレームでタイムスロット1個分のデータの送受ができるだけである。   Next, the simultaneous transmission / reception operation by the wireless communication system having the above configuration will be described.

Amount can be sent and received. That is, the base station 100 that is the base station of the wireless terminal 300 communicates using the frequencies F1 to F4, while the base station 200 that is the slave station communicates using the frequencies F5 to F8. In response to the simultaneous transmission / reception request from, the synchronization of transmission / reception on the side of the slave station 200 is inverted from the normal 4-slot down period—the 4-slot upstream period to become the 4-slot upstream period—the 4-slot down period.

そして、図6に示すように、最初の第2スロットのタイミングに、親局100と端末300との間で周波数F2で下り方向の通信を行い、同時に、子局200と端末300との間で周波数F6で上り方向の通信を行い、同時送受信機能を持つ端末300では周波数F2での受信、そして周波数F6の送信を同時に行わせる。そして1フレームのうちの第6スロットのタイミングに、逆に親局100と端末300との間で周波数F2で上り方向の通信を行い、同時に、子局200と端末300との間で周波数F6で下り方向の通信を行い、端末300では周波数F2での送信と周波数F6の受信を同時に行わせる。これにより、図1に示したように、同時送受信機能を持つ端末300Aは同時送受信機能を持たない既存の基地局100,200に対してもそれぞれとの間で割当てられた周波数F2,F6により従来の2倍の通信速度での通信が可能となり、また、同様の別の端末300Bは同時送受信機能を持たない既存の基地局100,200に対してもそれぞれとの間で割当てられた周波数F3,F7により従来の2倍の通信速度での通信が可能となるのである。   Then, as shown in FIG. 6, at the timing of the first second slot, downlink communication is performed between the master station 100 and the terminal 300 at the frequency F2, and at the same time, between the slave station 200 and the terminal 300. Uplink communication is performed at frequency F6, and terminal 300 having a simultaneous transmission / reception function simultaneously performs reception at frequency F2 and transmission at frequency F6. Then, at the timing of the sixth slot in one frame, the upstream communication is performed at the frequency F2 between the master station 100 and the terminal 300, and at the same time, the slave station 200 and the terminal 300 at the frequency F6. Downlink communication is performed, and the terminal 300 transmits at the frequency F2 and receives at the frequency F6 at the same time. As a result, as shown in FIG. 1, the terminal 300A having the simultaneous transmission / reception function is connected to the existing base stations 100 and 200 having no simultaneous transmission / reception function by using the frequencies F2 and F6 allocated thereto. And another similar terminal 300B also has a frequency F3 assigned to the existing base stations 100 and 200 having no simultaneous transmission / reception function. F7 enables communication at twice the conventional communication speed.

本実施の形態による擬似的な同時送受信について、図7のシーケンス図を用いて説明する。端末300から通信状態が最適なある基地局に対して同時送受信接続要求を発信する(ステップSQ1)。この要求を受信した基地局は、以降、親局100として動作することになる。親局となった基地局100は、基地局間監視部108によって受信レベルが最高である他の基地局を子局200として選択し(ステップSQ3)、該当基地局に対して本実施の形態の場合、局間接続ケーブル400を通じてチャネル割当てと送受信期間のタイミング反転指令を送信する(ステップSQ5)。   The pseudo simultaneous transmission and reception according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of FIG. A simultaneous transmission / reception connection request is transmitted from terminal 300 to a base station having an optimal communication state (step SQ1). After receiving this request, the base station operates as the master station 100 thereafter. The base station 100 that has become the parent station selects another base station having the highest reception level as the slave station 200 by the inter-base station monitoring unit 108 (step SQ3), In this case, a channel allocation and transmission / reception period timing inversion command is transmitted through the inter-station connection cable 400 (step SQ5).

同期反転指示をその反転制御部208にて受信した基地局は、自局で割当てチャネルが使用可能かどうか判断し(ステップSQ7)、空いている場合にはTDMA/TDD処理部205の上り下りの期間を反転させ(ステップSQ9)、子局となることを了承する信号としてチャネル割当てOKの信号を親局100に返信する(ステップSQ11)。親局100はこのチャネル割当てOKの信号を受信すると、端末300に対して同時送受信通信要求の受入れ通知を送信する(ステップSQ13)。   The base station that has received the synchronization inversion instruction at its inversion control unit 208 determines whether or not the allocated channel can be used in the own station (step SQ7), and if it is free, the TDMA / TDD processing unit 205 determines whether the uplink / downlink is available. The period is reversed (step SQ9), and a channel allocation OK signal is returned to the master station 100 as a signal that acknowledges becoming a slave station (step SQ11). When receiving the channel assignment OK signal, master station 100 transmits a simultaneous transmission / reception communication request acceptance notification to terminal 300 (step SQ13).

尚、このステップSQ3〜SQ13の子局選択は、図8のフローチャートに詳しく示す手順による。すなわち、基地局間監視部108が監視する他局からの無線信号の信号レベルに応じて(ステップS1)、信号レベルが高い順に子局候補の優先順位を付け(ステップS3)、優先順位の高い基地局から順に空きチャネルの問い合わせを行い(ステップS5)、使用可能な空きチャネルを持つ基地局を子局に決定する手順で行うのである(ステップS7)。   Note that the selection of slave stations in steps SQ3 to SQ13 is performed according to the procedure shown in detail in the flowchart of FIG. That is, according to the signal level of the radio signal from the other station monitored by the inter-base station monitoring unit 108 (step S1), priorities are assigned to the slave station candidates in descending order of the signal level (step S3). Inquiries about free channels are made in order from the base station (step S5), and the base station having available free channels is determined as a slave station (step S7).

端末300は同時送受信受入れ通知を受信すれば、以降、本来の同時送受信機能を起動し、上述したように、例えば、第2スロット、第6スロットにて周波数F2,F6を用いて親局100、子局200との間でそれらの送受信タイミングを反転させて同時に通信させることで実質的な同時送受信を実行する(ステップSQ15〜SQ25)。   If the terminal 300 receives the simultaneous transmission / reception acceptance notification, the terminal 300 subsequently activates the original simultaneous transmission / reception function and, as described above, for example, using the frequencies F2 and F6 in the second slot and the sixth slot, Substantial simultaneous transmission / reception is executed by reversing the transmission / reception timing with the slave station 200 and simultaneously communicating with the slave station 200 (steps SQ15 to SQ25).

これにより、本実施の形態の無線通信システム及びそれが実行する無線通信方法によれば、同時送受信機能を持つ端末300は同時送受信機能を持たない既存の基地局100,200に対してもそれら従来の同時送受信機能を有していない基地局のほぼ2倍の通信速度で通信できる。   Thus, according to the wireless communication system of the present embodiment and the wireless communication method executed by the wireless communication system, the terminal 300 having the simultaneous transmission / reception function also applies to the existing base stations 100 and 200 having no simultaneous transmission / reception function. It is possible to communicate at almost twice the communication speed of a base station that does not have the simultaneous transmission / reception function.

尚、上記実施の形態の無線通信システムでは、基地局100,200間の送受信期間のタイミング反転指令/同期反転受入れ信号の授受を既存の局間接続ケーブル400を通じて行うようにしたが、これに限定されるわけではなく、図9のシステム図に示したように、PHSの場合に全基地局がI’回線410、そしてネットワーク420にて接続されているので、このI’回線を通じて該当基地局100,200間の送受信期間のタイミング反転指令/同期反転受入れ信号の授受を行うようにすることもできる。あるいは、図10に示したように、親局100・子局200間で空きスロットあるいは制御スロットを利用した無線通信回線430にて送受信期間のタイミング反転指令/同期反転を受け入れ信号の授受を行うようにすることもできる。   In the wireless communication system of the above-described embodiment, the timing inversion command / synchronization inversion acceptance signal between the base stations 100 and 200 is transmitted and received through the existing inter-station connection cable 400. However, the present invention is not limited to this. However, as shown in the system diagram of FIG. 9, in the case of PHS, since all base stations are connected by the I ′ line 410 and the network 420, the corresponding base station 100 is connected through this I ′ line. , 200 transmission / reception period timing inversion command / synchronization inversion acceptance signal can be exchanged. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 10, a timing inversion command / synchronization inversion in a transmission / reception period is received and transmitted / received over a wireless communication line 430 using an empty slot or a control slot between the master station 100 and the slave station 200. It can also be.

また、同期反転制御は、子局200側でなく、親局100側が同時送受信要求を受け付け、子局を決定したときに自局の上り期間/下り期間を反転させる制御をするようにしてもよい。さらに、予め各基地局ごとに、他の基地局の複数局を子局候補として優先順位を付けて取り決めておき、無線端末からの同時送受信要求に対して、登録されている子局候補に対してその優先順位の高い方から順に空きチャネルを問い合せ、空きチャネルがある子局候補のうち優先順位が一番高い他の基地局を子局として選択する構成にすることができる。   In the synchronous inversion control, not the slave station 200 but the master station 100 may accept the simultaneous transmission / reception request and perform control to reverse the uplink period / downlink period of the own station when the slave station is determined. . In addition, for each base station, a plurality of stations of other base stations are assigned with priorities as slave station candidates, and in response to simultaneous transmission / reception requests from wireless terminals, Thus, an empty channel is inquired in order from the highest priority, and another base station with the highest priority is selected as a slave station among the slave station candidates having the empty channel.

また、親局100となる基地局が子局200となる基地局を選択する処理は、親局−子局のペアを予め各接続制御部106に登録しておくこともできる。そして、予め決定されている子局となるべき基地局に空きチャネルがない場合には同時送受信への移行を保留にし、継続的に同時送受信要求を端末300から発信するようにしてもよい。この場合のシステム構成は上記実施の形態の場合よりも単純になる。   Further, in the process of selecting the base station that becomes the slave station 200 by the base station that becomes the master station 100, a parent station-slave station pair can be registered in each connection control unit 106 in advance. Then, when there is no empty channel in a base station that should be a predetermined slave station, the transition to simultaneous transmission / reception may be suspended and a simultaneous transmission / reception request may be continuously transmitted from the terminal 300. The system configuration in this case is simpler than in the case of the above embodiment.

(第2の実施の形態)図11は、本発明の第2の実施の形態の無線通信システムを示しており、本実施の形態の無線通信システムは、基地局100が既存の同時送受信機能を有していない2基の無線局110,120を備えているものである場合に、この基地局100と同時送受信機能を有する無線端末300との間で擬似的に同時送受信を行うことを特徴とする。   (Second Embodiment) FIG. 11 shows a radio communication system according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In the radio communication system of this embodiment, the base station 100 has an existing simultaneous transmission / reception function. When two wireless stations 110 and 120 that are not included are provided, pseudo-simultaneous simultaneous transmission / reception is performed between the base station 100 and a wireless terminal 300 having a simultaneous transmission / reception function. To do.

基地局100内の第1無線局110、第2無線局120の構成は、図12に示すものであり、図2に示した第1の実施の形態における親局100、子局200の構成と共通である。ただし、本実施の形態の場合、基地局100内の第1無線局110と第2無線局120とは局内接続線450にて接続されている点が異なる。本実施の形態における同時送受信機能を備えた無線端末300は第1の実施の形態と同様であり、図3及び図4に示す構成である。   The configurations of the first radio station 110 and the second radio station 120 in the base station 100 are as shown in FIG. 12, and the configurations of the master station 100 and the slave station 200 in the first embodiment shown in FIG. It is common. However, the present embodiment is different in that the first radio station 110 and the second radio station 120 in the base station 100 are connected by an intra-station connection line 450. The wireless terminal 300 having the simultaneous transmission / reception function in the present embodiment is the same as that in the first embodiment, and has the configuration shown in FIGS.

本実施の形態による同時送受信動作は、図13のシーケンス図に示すようになる。本実施の形態の場合、図7に示した第1の実施の形態のシーケンス図に対して、ステップSQ3の子局決定処理が介在せず、第1無線局110が端末300から同時送受信要求を受信すれば、局内接続線450を通じて直ちに第2無線局120に対してチャネル割当て/同期反転指示を行う(ステップSQ1,SQ5)。そして、ステップSQ7以降の手順は、第1の実施の形態と共通である。尚、同一基地局100内での第1無線局110と第2無線局120とは予め決定されているわけではなく、端末300から同時送受信切替要求を受信した無線局が第1無線局110となり、そして同一基地局100内の残りの無線局が第2無線局120となる違いがあるだけである。また、親局となる第1無線局110と子局となる第2無線局120との間では、第1無線局110側が上り期間/下り期間の反転を行う構成にすることも可能である。   The simultaneous transmission / reception operation according to the present embodiment is as shown in the sequence diagram of FIG. In the case of the present embodiment, the first wireless station 110 makes a simultaneous transmission / reception request from the terminal 300 without the slave station determination process of step SQ3 being added to the sequence diagram of the first embodiment shown in FIG. If received, a channel assignment / synchronization inversion instruction is immediately given to the second radio station 120 through the intra-station connection line 450 (steps SQ1, SQ5). The procedures after step SQ7 are the same as those in the first embodiment. The first radio station 110 and the second radio station 120 in the same base station 100 are not determined in advance, and the radio station that has received the simultaneous transmission / reception switching request from the terminal 300 is the first radio station 110. The only difference is that the remaining radio stations in the same base station 100 become the second radio station 120. Further, between the first radio station 110 serving as a master station and the second radio station 120 serving as a slave station, the first radio station 110 may be configured to invert the uplink period / downlink period.

本実施の形態によれば、同一基地局内の2基の無線局間で親局、子局を決定してその一方の上り期間/下り期間を反転させ、端末300に対して擬似的に同時送受信を実行するので、第1の実施の形態のように受信信号レベルによって子局となる基地局を決定する手順が必要でなく、それだけシステムの単純化が図れる。   According to the present embodiment, a master station and a slave station are determined between two radio stations in the same base station, one of the uplink periods / downlink periods is inverted, and pseudo-simultaneous simultaneous transmission / reception with terminal 300 Therefore, the procedure for determining the base station to be a slave station based on the received signal level is not required as in the first embodiment, and the system can be simplified accordingly.

尚、本実施の形態にあっても、各基地局が自局内の無線局に空きチャネルが見つけられない場合、地理的に別の位置に存在する他の基地局と通信し、第1の実施の形態と同様の手順で受信レベルが高く、かつ空きチャネルを持つ無線局を子局として選択する機能を持たせることも可能である。   Even in the present embodiment, if each base station cannot find a free channel in its own radio station, it communicates with other base stations that are located in geographically different locations. It is also possible to provide a function of selecting a radio station having a high reception level and a free channel as a slave station in the same procedure as in the above embodiment.
