Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that, in adding reference numerals to the constituent elements of the drawings, the same constituent elements are denoted by the same reference symbols as possible even if they are shown in different drawings. In the following description of the embodiments of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present disclosure rather unclear.

In describing the components of the present specification, terms such as first, second, A, B, (a), and (b) may be used. These terms are intended to distinguish the constituent elements from other constituent elements, and the terms do not limit the nature, order or order of the constituent elements. When a component is described as being "connected", "coupled", or "connected" to another component, the component may be directly connected or connected to the other component, May be "connected "," coupled ", or "connected. &Quot;

In addition, the description of "including" a specific configuration in the present invention does not exclude a configuration other than the configuration, and means that additional configurations can be included in the practice of the present invention or the technical scope of the present invention. 1 schematically illustrates combining additional data in a main data frame to transmit main data and additional data together.

Additional data such as a transmission ID and a disaster broadcast are additional data for the main data. As shown in Fig. 1, the additional data 110 is inserted into the main data frame 120 of length k and transmitted.

The additional data is transmitted at a low transmission power P with a long code length of a length L as a low-speed, low-capacity data. At this time, the additional data is added to the main data, and when detecting the main data at the receiving end, it can act as an interference to the main data. Therefore, the main data detection performance at the receiving end is lowered.

Therefore, if a margin of sufficient performance is ensured when detecting the main data at the receiving end, the additional data can be efficiently used without interfering with the detection of the main data.

The present invention provides a method for transmitting supplementary data in a stable and high-speed manner by providing sufficient diversity gain or performance margin to main data using various types of diversity techniques.

In the present invention, space-time block coding (STBC), delay diversity (DD), cyclic delay diversity (CDD), space-frequency block coding SFBC), and the like can be used. In the present specification, the diversity technique includes various methods for improving data transmission performance using two or more antennas such as spatial multiplexing, cooperative transmission between macro base stations, cooperative transmission between macro base stations and micro base stations, and cooperative transmission using two or more transmitters Concept.

Also, the term " multiple antennas " as used herein includes two or more base stations or a plurality of base stations in the case of cooperative transmission using two or more transmitters. For example, in the case of cooperative transmission between macro base stations, each macro base station may have multiple antennas, or in the case of cooperative transmission between a macro base station and a micro base station, multiple antennas may be composed of a macro base station and a micro base station.

2 is a diagram schematically illustrating transmission of data using multiple antennas in a transmitter.

The signal passed through the serial to parallel (S / P) unit 210 is coded and modulated by the coding and modulation unit 220. The signal passed through the coding and modulation unit 220 is transmitted to the transmission unit 240 through the diversity signal processing unit 230. The transmitting unit 240 transmits the signals using the multiple antennas 250.

Before transmitting a signal to the multiple antennas, the diversity signal processing unit 230 performs necessary processing so that a transmitted signal can be diversity gain by allocating a signal to multiple antennas and performing pre-coding. Hereinafter, this processing will be referred to as diversity coding for convenience of explanation.

3 is a view schematically illustrating a case where each transmitter of the broadcasting system performs a cooperative transmission to obtain a diversity gain. Each transmitter performs specific diversity coding with respect to each other so that the receiver can obtain the diversity gain in the overlapped portion of the two transmitters. Although a plurality of transmitters are used here, the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can also be applied to a case where a plurality of base stations is referred to as a cooperative transmission.

4 is a diagram schematically illustrating a case where a macro base station and a micro base station in a cell of a macro base station perform a cooperative transmission to obtain a diversity gain. The transmission of the macro base station is performed with high power. The transmission of the micro base station is performed with low power. The macro base station and the micro base station may perform diversity coding in pairs so that the receiving terminals obtain diversity gain.

In this manner, when the diversity scheme is applied in various forms, the diversity gain can be obtained so that the detection performance of the received signal is greatly increased.

FIG. 5 is a graph illustrating a bit error rate (BER) when STBC is applied to a single antenna.

As shown in the figure, when the space time block coding is applied, the transmission performance is significantly improved as compared with the case where data is transmitted using a single antenna without applying space time block coding.

For example, it can be confirmed that the performance is improved by about 10 dB or more at BER = 10 -3 . This is an example of a performance margin related to the main data signal transmission referred to herein. The space time block coding shown in FIG. 5 is an example of a case where a diversity technique is applied, and transmission performance is improved similarly when another diversity technique is applied.

As described above, diversity techniques using multiple antennas can be applied to perform more stable and high-speed data transmission. That is, if the transmission performance of the main data is improved by applying the diversity technique, the margin of the transmission performance can be utilized for effective transmission of the additional data.

6 is a block diagram schematically illustrating an example of a data signal transmission apparatus or transmission system to which the present invention is applied.

The first coding / modulating unit 610 performs coding and modulation on the main data signal and transmits the coding and modulation to the first diversity processing unit 620.

The second coding / modulating unit 630 performs coding and modulation on the additional data signal and transmits the coding and modulation to the second diversity processing unit 640.

The first diversity processing unit 620 and the second diversity processing unit 640 perform diversity coding on the coded and modulated data signals. Here, diversity coding is a technique in which, before transmission of a signal to multiple antennas, diversity coding is performed by performing a necessary process such that a signal to be transmitted is diversity gain, such as assigning a signal to multiple antennas and performing pre- .

The diversity-coded main data signal and the additional data signal are transmitted to the signal combining unit 660 corresponding to the assigned antenna. The signal combining unit 650 performs necessary processing such as combining two data signals so that the transmitted main data signal and the additional data signal can be transmitted together through the corresponding antenna or inserting the additional data signal into the frame of the main data signal do.

The main data signal and the additional data signal transmitted from the signal combining unit 650 to the transmitting and receiving unit 660 are transmitted through an antenna allocated to them among the antennas 670 constituting the multiple antennas.

Hereinafter, a method for improving transmission performance of an additional data signal to be transmitted together with a main data signal with improved transmission performance by applying diversity technology will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

≪ Transmission power control of additional data signal - Improvement of additional data detection performance >

The transmission power of the additional data can be increased in consideration of the improvement of transmission performance of the main data signal.

When the additional data signal is inserted and transmitted in the frame of the main data signal, the transmission power of the additional data signal can be improved and inserted. Therefore, in order to prevent interference with the main data signal, it is possible to allocate to the additional data signal the transmission power necessary for sufficiently securing the transmission performance of the additional data signal, without inserting the additional data signal into the main data signal at low power .

The transmission of the main data signal to which the diversity technique is applied is improved in performance as shown in FIG. 5, so that the performance margin is obtained as much as that. Therefore, as described above, it is possible to apply a power as high as the improved performance to the additional data signal by applying the diversity technique.

In the case of the additional data signal to which the high power is applied, since the detection performance at the receiving end is improved, more stable transmission and reception is possible.

It is possible to insert the additional data signal into the frame of the main data signal with high power or to transmit it together with the main data signal, so that a high degree of autocorrelation can be realized. Therefore, the code length of the additional data signal can be set short. Accordingly, since more additional data codes can be transmitted and transmitted in the transmission frame of the system, high-speed data communication becomes possible.

7 is a diagram schematically illustrating a method of inserting additional data signals 710-1 to 710-N into frames 720-1 to 720-N to which a main data signal is transmitted according to the present invention.

The length L of the additional data signal and the transmission power P can be variously adjusted according to the QoS (Quality of Service) of the transmission system to which the present invention is applied.

The transmission power P of the additional data signal may be increased in accordance with the diversity gain obtained by the main data signal. When a main data signal and an additional data signal are transmitted using a single antenna, when a transmission power applied to the additional data signal is p, a weight? Is added to the additional data signal transmitted according to the present invention the transmission power of? p can be applied. At this time, as the diversity gain acquired by the main data signal increases, the weighting factor? Applied to the transmission power of the additional data signal may be increased to improve the transmission performance of the additional data signal.

The number of codes of the additional data signal can be increased according to the diversity gain obtained by the main data signal. As the diversity gain obtained by the main data signal increases, the higher transmission power can be applied to the additional data signal as described above, so that the code length of the additional data signal can be reduced and more codes can be transmitted. Therefore, the transmission rate can be increased through the additional data signal.

≪ Transmitting different data signals for different antennas - securing high data rate >

Since the main data signal and the additional data signal are transmitted together on the same transmission frame, the diversity gain obtained by the additional data signal can be increased as the diversity gain obtained by the main data signal increases.

Depending on the amount of performance margin obtained through the diversity gain, different additional data can be transmitted using multiple antennas. For example, in accordance with the amount of performance margin obtained through the diversity gain, a certain additional data signal is transmitted as a part of some transmission antennas (including a case of configuring a multi-antenna system with a plurality of base stations or a plurality of transmitters) It is possible to consider a case of inserting and transmitting another specific additional data signal in a frame of the main data signal transmitted to the corresponding antenna and transmitting another specific additional data signal in a frame of the main data signal transmitted to the other antenna .

In addition, different additional data signals for respective transmission antennas (including a case of configuring a multi-antenna system with a plurality of base stations or a plurality of transmitters) constituting multiple antennas are inserted into a frame in which a main data signal is transmitted and transmitted Can be considered.

At this time, the transmission power applied to the additional data signal may be low power or high power as described above.

With this method, the transmission rate of the additional data signal can be secured by a multiple of each antenna or transmitter. Therefore, high-speed additional data transmission is possible.

According to this method, additional data signals can be allocated to specific antennas, transmitters, or base stations without transmitting additional data signals through all transmission antennas. Therefore, it is possible not only to obtain the high data rate of the additional data, but also to satisfy the QoS of the transmission system.

8 is a diagram schematically illustrating a method of inserting additional data signals 810-1 to 810-N into frames 820-1 to 820-N in which a main data signal is transmitted in a system to which the present invention is applied . Each of the additional data signals or some additional data signals inserted into the frames k 820-1 to 820-N to which the main data signal is transmitted is different from each other.

Also in this case, the transmission power and the code length of the additional data are variously adjusted according to the diversity gain and the QoS to be obtained through the transmission system.

<Selection of transmission channel for feedback information - Stability of transmission / reception>

It is also possible to allocate and transmit additional data to an antenna, a base station, or a transmitter corresponding to a transmission channel having a good channel state, based on the transmission channel information transmitted through the feedback channel from the receiving end.

Information of an antenna or a transmitter or a base station corresponding to a high-quality transmission channel can be received from the receiving end through a feedback channel. Therefore, in the transmitting terminal, additional data can be transmitted only through an antenna or a transmitter or a base station having a good channel state. Therefore, stable transmission and reception can be performed, and the influence on the main data signal can be minimized.

9 is a diagram schematically illustrating a method of inserting an additional data signal in a frame in which a main data signal is transmitted in a system to which the present invention is applied.

Here, the case where it is determined that the quality of the i-th transport channel and the j-th transport channel satisfies the quality required by the system according to the channel state information transmitted from the receiving terminal 930 through the feedback channel 940 .

910-i, and 910-j are added to the frames 920-i and 920-j of the main data signal to be transmitted to the antennas corresponding to the i-th transport channel and the j-th transport channel, -j) can be inserted and transmitted.

10 is a flowchart schematically illustrating a method of transmitting a data signal in a transmission system to which the present invention is applied.

The transmitting end acquires the main data signal and the sub data signal to be transmitted (S1010). At this time, the sub data signal is additional data such as T x ID, disaster broadcast data to be transmitted together with the main data signal.

And performs coding and modulation on the obtained main data signal and sub data signal (S1020). The main data signal and the sub data signal can be performed in various ways depending on the characteristics and structure of the transmission / reception system.

The main data signal and the sub data signal are diversity-coded (S1030). Refers to a process required to allow diversity gain to be obtained in a transmitted signal, such as assigning a diversity data signal to multiple antennas and performing pre-coding.

The main data signal and the sub data signal, which are diversity-coded, are synthesized (S1040). Here, combining the main data signal and the sub data signal refers to a process of processing the main data signal and / or the sub data signal so that the main data signal and the sub data signal can be transmitted together with the main data signal. For example, the sub data signal may be inserted into the frame in which the main data signal is transmitted.

The synthesized main data signal and sub data signal are transmitted through multiple antennas (S1050). At this time, the main data signal transmitted through the multiple antennas can obtain various diversity gains according to the applied diversity technique.

Since the sub data signal is transmitted together with the main data signal, the diversity gain can be obtained similarly to the main data signal.

As described above, different sub data signals can be obtained in the data signal acquiring step (S1010) so that different signals can be transmitted according to the transmission antennas, as described above.

Also, the sub data signal can adjust the transmission power, the code length, and the like through the coding / modulation processing step S1020, the diversity coding step S1030 and / or the data signal combining step S1040.
