- HSDPA High Speed Downlink Packet Access
- HSDPA High Speed Downlink Packet Access
- HSDPA employs Adaptive Code Modulation and Coding (AMC).
- AMC Adaptive Code Modulation and Coding
- QPSK modulation scheme QPSK modulation scheme
- 16-value QAM scheme 16 Q AM scheme
- HSDPA adopts H-ARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest) method.
- H-ARQ Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest
- a mobile station detects an error in received data of radio base station power, it makes a retransmission request (transmission of a NACK signal) to the radio base station. Since the radio base station that has received this retransmission request retransmits the data, the mobile station performs error correction decoding using both the already received data and the retransmitted received data. In this way, H-AR Q has already received even if there is an error.
- the gain of error correction decoding increases, and as a result, the number of retransmissions can be reduced.
- the ACK signal is also received by the mobile station, data transmission is successful, so retransmission is unnecessary and the next data transmission is performed.
- the main radio channels used in HSDPA are (1) HS-SCCH (High Speed-Shared Control Channel), (2) HS-PDS and H (high Speed-Physical Downlink Shared Channel). , (3) HS— DPCCH (High Speed-Dedicated Physical Control Channel) force S is there.

- HS-DPCCH is an individual control channel (dedicated control channel) in the uplink direction (that is, an at-printer that is a direction to the mobile station radio base station), and is used for data received via HS-PDSCH.
- This is used when the mobile station transmits the reception result (ACK signal, NACK signal) to the radio base station depending on whether there is an error or not. That is, it is a channel used for transmitting a reception result of data received via HS-PDSC H. If the mobile station fails to receive data (such as when the received data is a CRC error), the radio base station executes retransmission control because a NACK signal is transmitted from the mobile station.
- HS-DPCCH is also used by mobile stations that measure the reception quality (for example, SIR) of signals received by the radio base station to transmit the received quality to the radio base station as CQI (Channel Quality Indicator).

- the channel estimation value of the first symbol of the current slot slot # n is the second to tenth symbols of the slot slot # n-2 and the previous slot slot #. This is the average value of the CPICH symbol signal of a total of 20 symbols, combining the 1st to 10th symbols of nl and the 1st symbol of the current slot slotfti.
- the channel estimate value of the second symbol of the current slot slotfti is the third to tenth symbols of the slot slot # n-2 and the first to tenth symbols of the previous slot #nl and the current slot slotfti.

- CPICH channel estimation filter for SIR calculation 8-power HS-PDSCH channel estimation filter Uses the CPICH symbol signal for a total of 20 symbols including the 10 symbols immediately before the current symbol and the next 10 symbols including the current symbol, as in 2. The reason why the channel estimate cannot be calculated will be described later.
- the CPIR compensation processing unit 9 for SIR calculation performs channel compensation processing on the CPICH symbol signal using the channel estimation value of the CPIR for SIR calculation as shown in the lower part of FIG.
- the processor 10 uses the channel-compensated symbol signal to generate a CPICH symbol.
- the demodulated CPICH-SIR calculation processing unit 11 performs a well-known SIR calculation process using the demodulated CPICH symbol and outputs a CPICH-SIR that is a reception environment of the mobile station.
- the CQI report value conversion unit 12 Since the CPICH-SIR ⁇ CQI report value conversion unit 12 has a correspondence table between CPICH-SIR and CQI as shown in Fig. 13, the CQI report value corresponding to the input CPICH-SIR is stored in the table. Obtained from the bull and input to the HS-DPCCH generator 13.
- the downlink reception timing monitoring unit 14 monitors the downlink timing based on the reception timing signal (frame synchronization, slot synchronization signal), and the uplink transmission timing management unit 15 generates the HS-DPCCH transmission timing signal.
- Type in part 13 The HS-DPCCH generation unit 13 determines the CQI report value according to CPICH-SIR 4 to 1 slot before (in the example of FIG. 9, CPICH-SIR 2 to 1 slot before) for each subframe as described in FIG. And an HS-DPCCH having an ACK / NACK signal as appropriate is generated, encoded by the encoding processing unit 16 and input to the modulation processing unit 17.

- the average value of the CPICH symbol signals of the current symbol is calculated, and the average value can be used as the channel estimation value of the current symbol, so that channel estimation can be performed with high accuracy.
- the channel estimation filter 8 of the CPIR for SIR calculation cannot calculate the channel estimation value using the next 10 symbols including the current symbol, like the channel estimation filter 2 of HS-PDSCH. This is because it is estimated that the CQI report value must be obtained from the SIR measured using the CPICH symbols for 3 to 4 slots before the current slot and transmitted in the current slot. This is because the CPICH symbol for SIR calculation cannot be delayed for estimation!
- the channel estimation filter 8 of the CPIR for SIR calculation calculates the average value of the CPICH symbol signal for the last 20 symbols including the current symbol, and the average value is calculated as the channel estimation value.
- the channel estimation value of the first symbol of the previous slot slot #nl is used as the channel estimation value of the first symbol of the current slot slotfti.
- a channel estimation value that is not suitable for the first symbol of the current slot slotfti is calculated, and the CPICH channel estimation value for SIR calculation is less accurate than the HS-PDSCH channel estimation value.
- channel estimation results fluctuate in a short time due to high-speed forging, etc.
- the CPICH channel estimation value for SIR calculation is considerably lower in accuracy than the HS-PDSCH channel estimation value, and the reception quality of the CPICH symbol for SIR calculation is the reception of the HS-PDSCH symbol. Deteriorated considerably from quality.

- Fig. 16 is a graph showing the CQI report value for the fading rate when the CPICH-SIR force is converted to the CQI report value using the conventional technology.
- Fixed format reception means reception when transmission is performed with a fixed block size, modulation method, and number of multicodes.
- the reception quality of CPICH for SIR calculation deteriorates when the fading speed is increased compared to the reception quality of HS-PDSCH. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 16, the CQI report value is reported lower than the original CQI report value during fast fading.
- the base station has a low transmission rate and high error correction capability for mobile stations. Data is transmitted using HS-PDSCH. For this reason, the block error rate BLER of HS-PDSCH becomes considerably smaller than the default value of 0.1, that is, the quality becomes excessive, and the throughput characteristics of the communication system deteriorate.
