Definitions
- the present invention is directed to methods and apparatus for data communication over a block-coherent channel and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for joint demodulation and decoding for the purpose of forward error detection and/or correction.
- Noncoherent communication systems include, for instance, a wireless- multiple access system where the mobile nodes have limited power and cannot afford to transmit high power known symbols, e.g., pilots, to enable reliable channel estimation.
- a noncoherent communication channel may possess some coherence properties.
- a noncoherent communication channel may include coherent blocks, where a coherent block is a time interval during which the channel variations are negligibly small. Communication over such a channel is referred to as block-coherent communication.
- Block-coherent communication may arise naturally in fast frequency-hopping orthogonal frequency division multiple (OFDM) access systems.
- OFDM orthogonal frequency division multiple
- information may be modulated onto a subset of available frequencies, called tones, in every symbol time.
- tones utilized are, in some cases, rapidly hopped across the entire utilized frequency band in every L symbols, e.g., L consecutive symbols are mapped to one tone, followed by another L symbols mapped to a different tone, and so on.
- L is small, it is possible to assume the consecutive L symbols experience identical channel gain.
- the amplitudes of the gains of two consecutive sets of L symbols can be close, their phases are normally completely independent.
- a block-coherent communication system can be defined as follows: for a system represented in discrete time domain, the channel gain is an unknown complex random variable that generally remains the same for every L consecutive symbols but otherwise varies independently according to some distribution, e.g., the phase is uniformly distributed over [0, 2PI] and the magnitude is Rayleigh distributed.
- the nominal modulation scheme is differential M-array phase-shift-keying (DMPSK).
- DMPSK carries the information in the phase differences between two successive symbols over the coherent block.
- a block-coherent communication system will normally include an encoder (which inserts structured redundancy into original data stream), a modulator, e.g. DMPSK, (which maps binary data bits to MPSK symbols), a demodulator (which extracts out soft information and feeds it to the decoder), and a decoder (which decodes the original message based on soft information from the demodulator).
- an encoder which inserts structured redundancy into original data stream
- a modulator e.g. DMPSK
- a demodulator which extracts out soft information and feeds it to the decoder
- a decoder which decodes the original message based on soft information from the demodulator
- the received symbol y(i) and the transmitted symbol t(i) are related as follows:
- D is the unknown phase
- D is the unknown (real) channel gain
- n(i) is the additive noise component
- turbo equalization - In most coded systems, a receiver applying iterative demodulation and decoding - a scheme henceforth referred to as turbo equalization - has significant performance gain over a non-iterative receiver.
- convolution and/or turbo coded DMPSK systems investigated by Shamai et al. in "Iterative decoding for coded noncoherent MPSK communications over phase-noisy AWGN channel" published in LEE Proceedings Communication 2000, demonstrates turbo-equalization performance within 1.3 dB of channel capacity and 1 dB better than traditional schemes.
- turbo equalization While the performance of turbo equalization is important, for a communication system to be practical for use in a wide range of devices, e.g., consumer devices, it is important that the turbo equalization be capable of being implemented at reasonable cost. Accordingly, the ability to efficiently implement turbo equalization schemes used for a block-coherent communication system, e.g., in terms of hardware costs, can be an important consideration.
- turbo equalization in the light of implementation cost, is (i) the complexity of soft-in soft-out (SISO) demodulator and (ii) the data interleaving necessary at the transmitter and the receiver.
- SISO soft-in soft-out
- SISO demodulator One known method of implementing a SISO demodulator is to apply belief propagation, e.g. Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) algorithm if DMPSK modulation is used.
- belief propagation e.g. Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) algorithm if DMPSK modulation is used.
- BCJR algorithm runs on a trellis structure resulted from quantizing the phase space [0, 2PI] into equally spaced phase points. For instance, a 8-level quantization forms 8 points, 0, 1/4 PI, ..., 7/4 PI. Therefore, the unknown phase associated to a dwell can only be one of those points, so are the phases of the received symbols, given no additive noise.
- L symbols inside a dwell each being one of the eight states, comprises the trellis structure. The information symbol determines the transition from the current state to the next state. On this trellis, BCJR algorithm returns a soft guess on the information symbol.
- the complexity of BCJR algorithm is linear in the cardinality of the state space.
- Figure 1 illustrates an exemplary communication system including an encoder, a first interleaver, a modulator, a communications channel, a demodulator, a deinterleaver, a second interleaver, and a decoder in which the methods and apparatus of the present invention are employed.
- Figure 2 illustrates an exemplary structure of joint demodulation and decoding with data interleaving and de-interleaving in an exemplary receiver in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 3 illustrates an exemplary soft-in soft-out demodulator implemented in accordance with the present invention which may be used as the demodulator in Fig. 2.
- Figure 4 is an illustration of an exemplary embodiment of a module implemented in accordance with the invention which produces updated independent phase estimates from independent phase estimates using the known extrinsic rule.
- Figure 5 is a flowchart illustrating an exemplary method in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 6 is a drawing illustrating exemplary sets of information in accordance with the present invention.
- the present invention is directed to methods and apparatus for data communication over a block-coherent channel.
- the symbols transmitted in one coherent interval are referred to as a dwell, in this application.
- the length of a dwell is L.
- a dwell, comprising L symbols, serves as a unit for information transmission purposes.
- a pair of two bits, a.k.a. a dibit maps to one QPSK symbol: a dibit 00 maps to SO; a dibit 01 maps to SI; a dibit 11 maps to S2; and a dibit 10 maps to S3.
- Various features of the present invention are directed to methods and apparatus for a low-complexity SISO demodulator suitable for processing pseudo-pilot modulated information corresponding to each of one or more dwells.
- the low-complexity method of the invention provides good performance under turbo equalization.
- this is accomplished by first independently estimating the unknown phase based on each of L pairs of information, each pair including a received symbol y(i) and updated a priori information on a transmitted symbol t(i) feed from the decoder. That produces L independent estimations, one for each symbol index i.
- a new phase estimation for an i th symbol may be formed by averaging of the estimation from the other L-1 symbols, following the extrinsic principle which is described, in C. Berrou, A. Glambiiere, P.
- the new phase estimation can be used to generate soft information about the symbol (and thus the two bits associated with it). This technique does not require quantizing the unknown phase and thus entails little complexity.
- a decoder feeds the demodulator soft messages, m(2i) and m(2i+l), for bits c(2i), c(2i+l) associated with QPSK symbol t(i).
- Log-likelihood ratios of both bits c(2i) and c(2i+l) can be manipulated to obtain the expected value of symbol t(i):
- T(i) an estimation of ⁇ e , referred to as T(i), for every symbol inside the same dwell.
- T(0) is an estimation of ⁇ e for the known symbol inside the dwell.
- the weight coefficient "a" should be tuned adaptively during turbo equalization for optimal performance.
- a constant multiplication can be incorporated into the mapping step, when implementing Eq. (1) in software or hardware, this further simplifies implementation.
- Fig. 1 illustrates an exemplary general-purpose communication system 10 which implements the present invention.
- communications system 10 may be, e.g., an OFDM communications system.
- the system 10 includes a transmitter 100 which is coupled by a communication channel 110 to a receiver 120.
- the transmitter 100 may be part of a wireless terminal, the receiver may be part of a base station, and the communications channel may be an uplink communications channel.
- the transmitter 100 may be part of a base station, the receiver may be part of a wireless terminal, and the communications channel may be an downlink communications channel.
- the transmitter 100 comprises a data encoding circuit, e.g., an encoder 101, an interleaver 102, and a modulator 103.
- the receiver comprises a demodulator 121, a deinterleaver 122, an interleaver 123, a data decoder 124, and a sync signal generator 151.
- Decoder 124 may be a Turbo decoder, an LDPC decoder, or another type of decoder.
- the encoder 101 maps an input binary data stream A to a structured binary data stream Xi with redundancy.
- the interleaver 102 interleaves Xi to produce another data stream X 2 .
- the modulator 103 transforms the binary stream X 2 to physical signals S feasible for practical transmission, e.g. QPSK signals.
- the communications channel 110 may be, e.g., an air link. After modulation signals t are transmitted through the channel 110 to the receiver 120 and received as signals Y.
- the demodulator 121 and data decoder 124 supply symbol timing and other information to sync signal generator 151.
- the sync signal generator 151 generates from the supplied information a dwell sync signal which indicates the alignment of received symbols within a dwell. This information allows a device supplied with the dwell sync signal to determine which symbol within the dwell is being processed at any particular point in time.
- demodulator 121 extracts information X 2 ' from the noisy distorted reception Y.
- the deinterleaver 122 reorders the soft messages X 2 ' to Xi' corresponding to the original ordering of the code structure.
- the decoder 123 tries to recover the original binary data stream A through the use of redundancy present in the coded data stream X 2 ' produced by demodulation.
- the data path from data decoder 124 to demodulation 121 represents a feedback loop.
- the feedback path includes interleaver 123.
- the feedback messages corresponding to Ui are interleaved by an interleaver 123 to transform the ordering at the decoder to the ordering at the output of modulator 103 to producing messages corresponding to U 2 .
- FIG 2 is a drawing of an exemplary combined demodulation and interleaver device 150' that may be used in place of device 150 of Figure 1.
- Exemplary demodulation and interleaver device 150' illustrates an exemplary implementation of joint decoding and demodulation at the receiver side, coupled with a data interleaving and de-interleaving control circuit 202, in accordance with the present invention.
- Feedback messages from the decoder, corresponding to Ui are stored in soft-output (from decoder) memory (module 200).
- Soft- outputs are generated from received signals Y and stored in soft input (from channel) memory (module 208).
- the soft-outputs from the decoder memory(module 200) and soft-inputs from the channel receiver memory(module 208) are assumed to have the same configuration as the coded bits.
- Interleaving control circuit 202 generates the correct address to access both soft-outputs from the decoder memory and soft-inputs from the channel memory in the ordering of dwells, resulting in the forwarding of messages corresponding to U 2 and Y to demodulator 204.
- Demodulator 204 extracts information X 2 ' from the noisy distorted reception Y.
- the same generated addresses, generated by the interleaving control circuit 202 for the access of information being input to the demodulator 204, are subjected to a delay introduced by a delay line 210.
- the output of delay line 210 serves as write addresses used to control the writing of the soft inputs of information X 2 ', which are outputs of demodulator 204,into the decoder memory (module 206), and supplied to the decoder as Xi'.
- Write and read addresses supplied to memory 202, 206 may cause soft values corresponding to known signals, e.g., pilot signals or pseudo pilot signals, to be written to a dummy location. These values are not important since Icnown soft values corresponding to pilots or pseudo pilots can be used in their place. However, it is important to use actual addresses for information corresponding to data symbols since such values are not fixed and are important to data recovery. Writing pilot or pseudo pilot related values to dummy addresses is done in some embodiments to provide an easy way of maintaining timing synchronization with the stream of received symbols to be processed.
- Figure 3 illustrates an exemplary demodulator 204 which performs demodulation in accordance with one embodiment of the invention.
- the demodulator 204 can be used as the exemplary demodulator in Figure 2.
- subscript x for an exemplary complex symbol e.g., representing U 2 , X' 2 , Y, LPE, or UTPE, indicates the real component of the complex symbol
- subscript y indicates the imaginary component of the complex symbol.
- U 2X and U 2y represent the I and Q parts of U
- Y x and Y y represent the I and Q parts of Y and X' 2x and X' 2y represent the I and Y parts of X' 2 .
- mapping module 301 maps soft messages m(2i) and m(2i+l) from the decoder, associated respectively to the real and imaginary components of symbol U(i), each to a three-bit value according to Eq.(l).
- Sub-module 311 performs the mapping of soft messages m(2i) associated with U x to a three-bit value, while sub-module 313 maps soft-messages m(2i+l) associated with U y to produce another three bit value.
- Mapping module 301 also includes a weighting coefficients "a" 319, which may be utilized, e.g., as a multiplier, by the mapping sub-modules (311, 313) with known symbols, e.g., a pseudo pilot symbol.
- the weighting coefficient, "a" (319) may be set to a constant value, e.g., 2.
- the weighting coefficient "a” may be adaptively tuned, e.g., during turbo equalization.
- This mapping of module 301 forms the expected value of real and imaginary component of t(i)* (conjugate of t(i)), and thus the expected value of t(i)*.
- the outputs from mapping module 301 are soft bits corresponding to complex symbol values.
- a Look-Up-Table may be used for this mapping.
- the mapping modules 311, 313 can determine when a Icnown symbol, e.g. a pseudo pilot symbol or pilot symbol, is being processed.
- the processing of the known symbol, e.g., pseudo pilot symbol or pilot symbol may involve the use of a known value in place of the soft value supplied to the soft value input of mapping module 301.
- mapping may be performed differently for known symbols, e.g., pseudo pilot or pilot symbols, than for data symbols.
- complex multiplier A 303 may process values corresponding to known symbols, e.g., pseudo pilot symbols or pilot symbols, differently than symbols corresponding to data symbols.
- first complex multiplier 303 may limit the multiplication in the case of a Icnown symbol, e.g., a pseudo pilot symbol or pilot symbol, value to a real multiplication operation to avoid a rotation in phase which can occur in the case of complex multiplications performed on values corresponding to a data symbol in a dwell.
- a Icnown symbol e.g., a pseudo pilot symbol or pilot symbol
- Complex multiplier A 303 produces the product of the expected value of t(i)* and received value y(i). The resulting product is the independent phase estimation (IPE) for each symbol in a dwell. Separate real (TPE X ) and imaginary (IPE y ) LPEs are generated. Module 305 processes the components of the complex JJPE to generate an updated independent phase estimation (UTPE) which includes real and imaginary components for every symbol inside a dwell. Module 305 uses Icnown symbol information, e.g., pilot or pseudo pilot symbol information, and knowledge of the dwell structure in the processing, e.g., the UTPE module 305 may determine from the dwell structure where a pilot or pseudo pilot will occur in a sequence of symbols.
- Icnown symbol information e.g., pilot or pseudo pilot symbol information
- Dwell sync signal 323 is directed as an input to module 305.
- This processing to generate the UTPE can be implemented independently for each of the real and imaginary components.
- extrinsic estimate/update sub-module 315 processes IPE X to generate UTPE y
- extrinsic estimate/update sub-module 317 processes IPE y to generate UTPE y .
- Conjugate circuit 306 performs a conjugation operation on the signals supplied thereto.
- conjugate circuit 306 and complex multiplier B 307 are combined into a single circuit.
- a complex multiplier B 307 then multiplies the ULPE* with the received value y(i) to generate the new soft messages m'(2i) and m'(2i+l), up to a scaling constant.
- the received value y(i) might arrive from the same source as the input to module 303, delayed by a delay line module 309 that matches the pipeline delay in module 305.
- the output from complex multiplier B is X' 2 (i).
- module 305 produces the complex UTPE following the Icnown extrinsic rule.
- Figure 4 illustrates such an exemplary implementation of a module 400 implemented using the extrinsic rule, which can be used as the UIJPE module 305 of Figure 3.
- an accumulator 401 generates the summation of all the IPE T(i) in a dwell.
- the accumulator 401 includes a summing module 403, a delay element 405 (with a delay of 1 time interval corresponding to one symbol being processed), and a feedback loop.
- the output of the summing module 403 is input to the delay element 405; the output of the delay element 405 is fed back as an input to the summing module 403 to be summed with the IPE input signal.
- the output of the delay element 405 is also coupled to the input of a sum register 407.
- the summation of all IPE inside a dwell is locked, e.g., stored, in the sum register 407, where the lock is controlled by a signal dwell lock 409, indicating the boundary of dwells.
- Reset signal 411 can be used to clear the accumulator 401 and restart summing for a subsequent dwell.
- Sum register 407 retains the locked sum value corresponding to the last dwell, while accumulator 401 starts accumulation of a sum corresponding to a new dwell.
- Module 400 also includes a control module 415 which can generate the reset signal 411 and the dwell lock signal 409.
- Dwell sync signal 323 is an input to the control module 415 and may be used as a trigger by control module to generate signals 411 and 409 at the appropriate times.
- Dwell sync signal 323 is generated from sync signal generator 151, and is used to provide synchronization capability which facilitates identifying dwell boundaries.
- Module 400 also includes a delay element 413 (with a delay of L time intervals corresponding to L symbols of a dwell being processed) and a subtraction module 415.
- Delay element 413 performs a delay of L on each JPE symbol received as input.
- L 413 is a pipeline delay element capable of storing multiple IPE values.
- the delay 413 can be implemented as a series of L unit delay elements. Other implementations are also possible.
- Subtraction module 415 receives as input the outputs of delay element 413 and the dwell symbol sum value locked in sum register 407. The output of subtraction module 415 is the UTPE.
- Subtracting the IPE of the ith symbol from the sum (of the dwell set including the ith symbol) produces the UTPE of the ith symbol, where the LPE is readily available through the use of a delay line. It should be appreciated that the IPE and the UTPE are complex values and that the processing shown in Fig. 4 is performed on each of the real and imaginary components of the IPE in parallel.
- each of the illustrated elements may be viewed as performing the individual processing operation on a complex value.
- FIG. 5 is a flowchart 500 illustrating an exemplary method of operating a receiver, implemented in accordance with the invention, to perform demodulation operations in accordance with the present invention.
- the method starts in step 502, where the receiver is powered on and initialized. Operation proceeds to step 504, where the receiver is operated to receive a first set of complex values, said first set of complex values being received complex symbol values of signals communicated over a channel, e.g., a wireless communications uplink channel.
- the first set of complex symbol values are produced by an
- each set of complex values may correspond to seven received symbols. Other size blocks are possible.
- one of the received signals may be a known symbol, e.g., a pseudo pilot symbol or a pilot symbol.
- the receiver is operated to store each of the first set of complex symbol values for a second predetermined time, said second predetermined time being longer than a first predetermined time.
- the second predetermined time is chosen to be long enough so that the first set of values will be available when generating the fourth set of values.
- the values may be stored in a delay line. Operation proceeds to step 508.
- a set of soft bits e.g., generated from a decoder is received.
- the received soft bits correspond to said complex symbol values.
- a multiplication module performs a complex multiplication operation on each of at least some of said first set of complex values to generate at least some elements of a second set of complex values, the multiplication operation performed on each individual one of said set of at least some of said first set of complex values including multiplying said individual complex values by a complex value determined from at least some of said soft bits.
- the multiplication may not be performed on the known symbol, e.g., pilot or pseudo pilot symbol, with a predetermined value being output instead.
- each complex multiplication operation is performed by performing two shift operations and an addition operation.
- one of the received complex symbol values is not rotated, e.g., the phase is unchanged by the multiplication operation.
- the complex symbol value that is not rotated occurs in a pre-selected location within the set of received complex symbol values.
- the multiplication for the complex symbol value that is not rotated may be Icnown and independent of the soft bits.
- the complex symbol value that is not rotated may be a value representing a pilot symbol or a value representing a Icnown symbol such as a pseudo pilot symbol.
- the receiver is operated to store each of the generated second set of complex values for a first predetermined time.
- the first predetermined time in some embodiments is selected to be long enough to complete generation of the third set of complex values.
- step 514 the receiver is operated to sum said complex values in said second set of complex values to generate a complex sum, said complex sum being a complex value.
- step 516 the receiver is operated to store the complex sum.
- step 518 a third set of complex values is generated by subtracting from said stored complex sum one of said stored second set of complex values to generate one of said third set of complex values, said third set of complex values having the same number of complex values as said first set of complex values.
- Each of the second set of complex values is separately subtracted from the sum. The subtractions may be done sequentially or in parallel.
- step 520 each element of said first set of complex values is multiplied with the conjugate of a complex value from said third set of complex values to generate a fourth set of complex values, said fourth set of complex values having the same number of elements as the first and second sets of complex values, said complex values in said fourth set being soft symbol values. Operation proceeds from step 520 to step 522.
- a soft input soft output decoding operation is performed on said soft symbol values to generate additional soft bits.
- the soft input soft output decoding operation may be performed by a Low density parity check (LDPC) decoder.
- LDPC Low density parity check
- the soft input soft output decoding operation is performed by a turbo decoder.
- step 524 the generated additional soft bits are used to process another set of complex symbol values. This may involve a repeat of steps 504 through 522. Operation terminates in step 526, e.g., when there are no more complex values from the communication channel to be processed.
- Figure 6 is a block diagram 600 illustrating exemplary sets of information that are generated and processed in accordance with the present invention.
- Block 602 is an exemplary 1 st set of complex symbol values.
