Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for generating a set of radio parameters, a transmitter, and a receiver.
  • Non-Patent Reference 1 for an outlook of future communication systems.
  • an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is promising as a next generation communication system.
  • a single symbol is generated by attaching a guard interval to an effective symbol including information to be transmitted, and multiple symbols are transmitted during a predetermined transmission time interval (TTI).
  • TTI transmission time interval
  • the guard interval consists of part of information within the effective symbol.
  • the guard interval may be also called a cyclic prefix (CP) or overhead.
  • a receiver receives data on paths with various propagation delays.
  • the OFDM system if the amount of propagation delay falls within the period of the guard interval, inter-symbol interference can be effectively reduced.
  • a relatively large guard interval allows delay waves to be advantageously combined. This is advantageous particularly in communications with an extremely large cell radius and in simultaneous transmission of the same information from different cells to a mobile station in accordance with the multicast scheme.
  • the guard interval includes only part of the effective symbol, and thus a larger period of the guard interval is not preferable from the viewpoint of information transmission efficiency.
  • satisfactory communication quality may be maintained under environments with relatively short propagation delay such as urban areas and indoor areas or environments available for the unicast scheme by setting a relatively short guard interval.
  • the aforementioned transmission time interval controls various parameters for information transmission. For example, parameters such as a unit of packet transmission, a frequency of updating a data modulation scheme and a channel coding rate in the case of MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme), a unit of error correction coding, a unit of retransmission in the case of ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest), and a unit of packet scheduling are determined by the TTI. Because a control channel, which includes control information such as MCS information, retransmission information, and scheduling information, is used for demodulating a data channel, the control channel has to be used along with the data channel during each TTI. On the other hand, a user can transmit information during one or more TTIs, depending on the contents of information to be transmitted.
  • MCS Modulation and Coding Scheme
  • ARQ Automatic Repeat reQuest
  • control channels for the respective TTIs are multiplexed for transmission.
  • the control channel may not be always necessary for each TTI, because it is not necessary to change radio parameters for each TTI.
  • the situation where the control channel is used for transmission during each TTI is not preferable from the viewpoint of data transmission efficiency.
  • An OFDM mobile communication system is under discussion, where a wide frequency band is divided into multiple frequency blocks and a unit of information transmission in the frequency direction is defined by the frequency block.
  • the frequency block is also referred to as a chunk (or a resource block), and a single frequency block includes one or more subcarriers.
  • a user can transmit information with one or more frequency blocks.
  • multiple control channels for the respective frequency blocks are multiplexed for transmission, because the data channel is used for transmission for each frequency block.
  • These control channels may include information about frequency block allocation in addition to the aforementioned MCS information and so on.
  • the control channel may not be always necessary for each frequency block. The situation where the control channel is used for transmission for each frequency block is not preferable from the viewpoint of data transmission efficiency.
  • the present invention addresses at least one of the aforementioned problems. It is a general object of the present invention to provide a transmitter, a receiver, and an apparatus for generating a radio parameter, which can improve information transmission efficiency in an OFDM mobile transmission system.
  • an OFDM transmitter which includes:
  • a data modulation and channel coding unit configured to perform data modulation and channel coding for a data channel with a modulation level and a channel coding rate updated for each transmission time interval
  • a multiplexing unit configured to multiplex a control channel and the data channel for each transmission time interval
  • an adjusting means configured to adjust a length of the transmission time interval.

  • a transmission time interval is adjusted depending on communication conditions.
  • a control channel is multiplexed with a data channel for each TTI.
  • the control channel may be multiplexed into part of subcarriers. Increasing a unit of information transmission in the time direction and/or the frequency direction depending on communication conditions can reduce a frequency of inserting (allocating) the control channel, and can improve data transmission efficiency.
  • the control channel may include information about a modulation level and a channel coding rate.
  • the transmitter may store two or more sets of parameters, each of which defines a symbol including a guard interval with a different period and an effective symbol with the same period. The transmitter can determine a symbol format-depending on communication conditions without delay.
  • an apparatus for generating a set of radio parameters used for an OFDM mobile communication system which transmits and receives multiple symbols for each transmission time interval, each of the multiple symbols including a guard interval and an effective symbol.
  • the apparatus includes a first deriving unit configured to derive a second set of symbol parameters, so that a period of an effective symbol defined by a first set of symbol parameters is equal to a period of an effective symbol defined by the second set of symbol parameters, and a period of a guard interval defined by the first set of symbol parameters is different from a period of a guard interval defined by the second set of symbol parameters.
  • the apparatus also includes a second deriving unit configured to derive a third set of symbol parameters, so that a share of a guard interval in a symbol defined by the first set of symbol parameters is equal to a share of a guard interval in a symbol defined by the third set of symbol parameters, and a length of the symbol defined by the first set of symbol parameters is different from a length of the symbol defined by the third set of symbol parameters.
  • a length of the transmission time interval, a length of the symbol, or both a length of the transmission time interval and a length of the symbol is adjusted so that an integral number of symbols are transmitted during a single transmission time interval.
  • the apparatus can effectively derive a set of radio parameters which has a desired number of subcarriers to be used, a desired loss rate (a share of a guard interval in a symbol), and a desired number of symbols within one or more TTIs. For example, assuming that periods of effective symbols are mutually equal (i.e. subcarrier intervals are mutually equal), any radio communication device can always use the same signal processing for OFDM modulation and demodulation (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform and Fast Fourier Transform) even if any set of symbol parameters is used. Also assuming that the loss rate is kept constant, data transmission efficiency can be also kept constant even if any set of symbol parameters is used.
  • a set of symbol parameters is derived so that the subcarrier interval and the loss rate have desired values.
  • the number of subcarriers defined by a certain set of symbol parameters may be determined to be an integral multiple of the number of subcarriers defined by another set of symbol parameters.
  • a set of symbol parameters with a significantly different period of the guard interval can be derived while controlling the subcarrier interval and the loss rate.
  • the number of symbols for each transmission time interval can be adjusted to be an integer by extending the transmission time interval. Such an adjustment is preferable from the viewpoint of simplified signal processing.

  • the length of the long TTI is equal to 1.0 ms.
  • a single frame includes 20 TTIs, whereas in the case of the long TTI, a single frame includes only 10 TTIs.
  • two types of TTI are provided in FIG. 6 for ease of explanation, more types of TTI may be provided.
  • the TTI controls various parameters for information transmission. For example, parameters such as a unit of packet transmission, a frequency of updating a data modulation scheme and a channel coding rate in the case of MCS, a unit of error correction coding, a unit of retransmission in the case of ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest), and a unit of packet scheduling are determined by the TTI. Because a control channel, which includes control information such as MCS information, retransmission information, and scheduling information, is used for demodulating a data channel, the control channel has to be used along with the data channel during each TTI. A longer TTI can reduce a frequency of inserting (allocating) the control channel, and can improve information transmission efficiency (see FIG. 7 ).
  • This embodiment is also applicable to the case where a wide frequency band is divided into multiple frequency blocks (or chunks) and a unit of information transmission in the frequency direction is defined by the frequency block.
  • the control channel may not be used for transmission for every chunk, but may be used for transmission only for a single chunk (see FIG. 8 ).
  • Flexibly changing a unit of information transmission in the time direction and/or the frequency direction can prevent a frequency of inserting (allocating) the control channel from unnecessarily increasing, and can improve information transmission efficiency. Adjusting the length of the TTI is advantageous particularly in the case of a relatively narrow frequency band, because transmission efficiency is directly related to transmission delay when an available frequency band is narrow as shown in FIG. 7 .
  • the set of symbol parameters defines the subcarrier interval, the sampling frequency, the period of the effective symbol, the period of the guard interval, the number of symbols in a single TTI, and so on. It should be noted that all of the parameters cannot be determined independently. For example, the subcarrier interval and the period of the effective symbol have a reciprocal relationship with each other. Also, the period of a single TTI is derived by multiplying the period of one symbol (total period of the guard interval and the effective symbol) with the number of symbols. Three methods of deriving a second set of symbol parameters from a first set of symbol parameters are described below.
  • period of effective symbol 256 samples (44.4 ⁇ s)
  • guard interval 32 samples (5.5 ⁇ s)
  • the loss rate means a share of the guard interval in one symbol.
  • the guard interval is a redundant portion from the viewpoint of improved data transmission efficiency.
  • the loss rate ⁇ , the period T GI of the guard interval, and the period T eff of the effective symbol have the relationship as follows;
  • a first method of deriving a set of symbol parameters decreases the number of symbols in a single TTI and increases the period of the guard interval while keeping the subcarrier interval constant. For example, if a first set of symbol parameters now includes 10 symbols in a single TTI, the number of symbols is reduced to 9. Then, the period corresponding to the reduced one symbol (288 samples) is equally divided into 9 portions, each of which is assigned to the guard interval. As a result, as shown in FIG. 9(B) , while the period of the effective symbol (256 samples) is kept equal, the single TTI includes 9 symbols with longer periods of the guard interval.
  • a second set of symbol parameters derived in this manner has the parameter values as follows.
  • period of effective symbol 256 samples (44.4 ⁇ s)
