Definitions
- the present invention relates to a diversity receiving apparatus having a plurality of demodulation paths and a receiving method thereof.
- a conventional general diversity receiving apparatus is called selection diversity (hereinafter, also referred to as selection type diversity).
- selection diversity also referred to as selection type diversity.
- a carrier of a received signal in each of two demodulation paths is first transmitted to each of the two demodulation paths.
- the estimated value of the received power corresponding to the received signal was compared at each time point, and the received signal with the larger estimated value was selected and output. That is, of the two received signals at each point in time, the received signal with the better reception state is selected and output, and the reception signal with the worse reception state is not used. Therefore, at each time point, it was not possible to obtain better reception performance than the individual reception power obtained from any of the reception signals in each of the two demodulation paths.
- a power ratio of received power (estimated value power) corresponding to a received signal (or a demodulated signal obtained by demodulating the received signal) in each of the two demodulation paths is calculated, and a weight corresponding to the power ratio is calculated.
- a maximum ratio combining type diversity receiving apparatus in which a circuit for generating a coefficient, multiplying each received power by the weighting coefficient is provided, and weighted and synthesized by the circuit.
- Diversity receivers using the maximum ratio combining method include, for example, “Improvement of performance by diversity reception of terrestrial digital TV broadcasting”, Takashi Seki, et al. As shown in the Technical Report of the Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers, May 25, 2001, Vol.25, No.34, pp.1-6, R0FT2001-54 (ay, 2001). As with the receiver, it can not only improve multipath distortion, but also improve the transmission characteristics against thermal noise.For example, the instantaneous received power to noise power ratio (Carrierto Noise Power Ratio, hereafter simply CN R) Is also known to be improved.
- CN R Carrierto Noise Power Ratio
- the equal-gain combining method is a combining method in which two received signals are always combined with equal gains. For example, a received signal in each of two demodulation paths (or a demodulated signal obtained by demodulating the received signal) is used. Regardless of the corresponding received power (estimated power), the average value of the signal in each of the two demodulation paths is always output as a composite signal.
- the equal gain combining method is larger than the diversity receiver of the selection method and smaller than that of the maximum ratio combining method. If the difference between the received signals (or the demodulated signal obtained by demodulating the received signal) in each of the paths (or the difference between the CNRs corresponding to the signals) becomes larger, the selection diversity method is used. The receiving performance may be reduced.
- the conventional diversity receiver for example, in the case of a diversity receiver of the selection method, uses one of the received signals of each demodulation path as it is, so the circuit scale is small, but the reception performance is more improved. There was a problem that it was difficult to improve.
- the circuit to be added is only a simple averaging circuit, so that the circuit scale is relatively small. What can be improved However, there is a problem that the reception state cannot be improved compared to the diversity receiver using the maximum ratio combining method. Furthermore, if the difference between the CNRs of the received signals in each of the two demodulation paths is large, there is a problem that the receiving performance is lower than that of the selective type diversity receiver.
- the diversity receiver of the maximum ratio combining method can improve the reception performance more than the diversity receiver of the selection method and the diversity receiver of the equal gain combining method. Therefore, there is a problem that a circuit for generating a weight coefficient according to the ratio of the above and multiplying each received power by each weight coefficient is required, so that the circuit scale becomes large.
- the present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and provides a diversity receiver that has a small circuit scale and can improve reception performance to a level close to a diversity receiver of a maximum ratio combining scheme.

And a power ratio comparison unit that calculates a power ratio based on the second power corresponding to the second received signal in another demodulation path and compares the power ratio with a predetermined threshold.
- a signal selecting section that selects one of the demodulated signals output from each of the plurality of demodulation paths and outputs a selected demodulated signal; and a signal selection section that outputs the selected demodulated signal from each of the plurality of demodulated paths.
- a demodulation signal is synthesized with a predetermined gain and a synthesized demodulation signal is output.
- either the selected demodulation signal or the synthesized demodulation signal is output.
- a demodulation signal output unit for performing the operation.
- the diversity of the selection scheme and the diversity of the equal gain combining scheme are adaptively switched for each carrier component according to the power corresponding to the received signal in each demodulation path. Compared with the diversity receiving method that implements only the selective combining method or the diversity receiving method that implements only the equal gain combining method, the diversity effect can be increased, the receiving performance can be improved, and the maximum ratio combining can be achieved.
- a diversity receiver having a large diversity effect can be realized with a smaller circuit than in the case of implementing the diversity of the system.
