Abstract
Provided are a method and an apparatus for compensating for frequency offset in a mobile communication system. In an environment in which the UE moves at a high speed, the base station processes a fast fourier transform (FFT) on a received signal converted into a digital signal, and estimates a frequency offset using a pilot signal obtained from the FFT processed signal.

Description
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for compensating for a frequency offset in a mobile communication system.
In an environment in which the terminal moves at high speed, for example, an environment in which the terminal is mounted on a high speed train and moves at high speed, communication performance is greatly degraded due to Doppler shift. Specifically, the terminal receives a signal having a frequency shifted by a frequency offset due to the Doppler shift phenomenon compared to the transmission frequency of the base station. Thereafter, even when the terminal transmits a signal, the base station receives a signal having a frequency shifted by a frequency offset from the transmission frequency of the terminal. As such, the communication performance is degraded by the frequency offset generated for the signals transmitted and received by the terminal and the base station.
Therefore, the frequency offset must be compensated for to prevent degradation of communication performance.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for compensating for an uplink frequency offset of a moving body moving at high speed in a high speed moving environment.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an uplink frequency offset of a moving object moving at a high speed in a fast moving environment may be digitally compensated at the base station receiving end. In particular, the base station of the fast mobile backhaul may compensate the frequency offset present in the uplink received signal in the baseband digitally.

Hereinafter, a frequency offset compensation method and apparatus therefor in a mobile communication system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
1 is an exemplary view showing a high speed mobile environment according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the terminal may transmit and receive signals to and from a base station in an environment in which a terminal is mounted on a moving object moving at a high speed such as a high speed train. In the high-speed mobile backhaul environment, a frequency offset occurs due to a Doppler shift when transmitting and receiving a signal between a terminal and a base station.
2 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a frequency offset generated by a Doppler shift.
When the terminal receives the first signal from the base station, as shown in Figure 2, the frequency offset f o by the Doppler shift compared to the transmission frequency f1 of the first signal transmitted from the base station The first signal having the frequency f2 shifted by is received. Thereafter, the terminal estimates the frequency offset f o and uses the frequency f2 shifted by f o as the transmission frequency of the terminal.
Thereafter, the terminal transmits a second signal having a transmission frequency f2 to the base station, where the base station has a frequency offset f o due to the Doppler shift compared to the transmission frequency f2 of the second signal transmitted from the terminal. The second signal having the frequency f3 shifted by is received. Therefore, the interval between the transmission frequency f1 of the base station and the reception frequency f3 of the base station is 2f o. Increases by. Therefore, for uplink signals, 2f o Since the Doppler frequency shift occurs, the base station must compensate for the frequency offset at a high speed, for example, at a speed of 300 km / h or more, to prevent degradation of transmission performance.
In a typical cellular communication environment, since there are many terminals connected to a base station, it is very difficult to compensate the frequency offset individually for each terminal, and if the base station estimates and compensates for the frequency offset for each terminal, the hardware complexity increases greatly and thus the base station cost is increased. There is no choice but to increase. However, in the scenario as shown in FIG. 1, since one or two terminals (here, fast moving bodies) are simultaneously connected to the base station, it is possible to compensate the uplink Doppler frequency offset.
In addition, the higher the speed of the moving body, the greater the influence on the transmission performance due to the increase in the Doppler frequency. Therefore, the Doppler frequency problem must be solved to provide stable wireless backhaul link quality to the moving body. In addition, in the environment as shown in FIG. 1, the base station provides the wireless backhaul link to the mobile, and since there are a large number of users in the mobile, the wireless backhaul link quality affects the communication quality of many users at the same time.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the base station compensates the frequency offset generated by the Doppler shift as described above from the received signal as follows.
In the case of a downlink received signal, the terminal generally estimates a frequency offset from the received signal and compensates the frequency offset by controlling a clock of the oscillator based on the estimation result. However, in the case of the uplink reception signal, the base station cannot adjust the clock of the oscillator to compensate for the frequency offset of the uplink reception signal, because the clock of the oscillator is a reference clock. Therefore, in order to compensate for the frequency offset in the base station, a method of directly compensating by estimating the frequency offset of the received signal in the baseband. Since a few terminals exist for the base station of the fast mobile backhaul, the above method can be easily applied.
