Definitions
- the present invention performs propagation channel estimation by receiving multicarrier, in particular, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols consecutively arranged on a predetermined number of predetermined subcarriers.
- OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
- the present invention relates to a multicarrier receiver and a receiving method.
- the OFDM scheme is a scheme in which several tens to several thousands of carriers are arranged in a frequency interval that theoretically causes no interference, and information signals are transmitted in parallel by frequency division multiplexing.
- the OFDM scheme has an advantage of being less susceptible to multipath interference since the symbol time becomes longer when the number of subcarriers used is increased compared to a single carrier scheme of the same transmission rate.
- each subcarrier is subjected to different amplitude fluctuation and phase fluctuation, it is necessary to compensate for these fluctuation when demodulating data on the receiving side.
- As a method of compensating for the propagation path on the transmitting side, all or a part of the subcarriers are modulated with a known code between the transceivers and transmitted as a pilot signal, and on the receiving side, the received pilot signal strength There is a method of estimating received channel fluctuation and compensating the estimated channel fluctuation.
- a multicarrier signal including this pi-port signal is referred to as a “channel estimation symbol”. Also, when the signal form is OFDM, it is called “propagation channel estimation OFDM symbol”.
- the time despreading gain can be obtained, the ratio of received signal power to noise power (SNR: Depending on the signal to noise power ratio, the adverse effect due to distortion was noticeable at the end of the frequency response estimation band. This distortion is more influential toward the end of the band for estimating the propagation path. For this reason, a technique is also disclosed that improves the time despreading channel estimation method.
- Patent Document 1 frequency information (frequency information from which noise or the like has been removed) whose propagation path has been estimated by the time despreading propagation path estimation method is used for propagation path compensation in the central part of the band.
- a method is disclosed in which the propagation path of subcarriers located at is used for propagation path compensation before removing noise and the like.
- Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for facilitating the determination of a reference element related to noise generated in a transmission channel. That is, as a technique for determining a reference element relating to noise, it is disclosed that a threshold is set upon reception, transmission is performed by increasing the power of the reference element, or a combination of these.
- MIMO Multi_Input Multi-Output
- This technology transmits different data streams from two or more different antennas, identifies it at the receiver, and demodulates the data, which contributes significantly to the improvement of the transmission rate.
- a MIMO-OFDM system which is OFDM using MIMO technology, is also being considered, in which the propagation paths between the transceivers can be estimated efficiently and accurately. It is an important issue.
- Non-Patent Document 1 shows a channel estimation method using CI (Carrier Interferometry) (hereinafter referred to as "CI method”), and the feature of the present technology is that one channel estimation OFDM scheme is used. It is possible to estimate the propagation path from a plurality of transmitting antennas with a symbol.
- CI method Carrier Interferometry
- signals transmitted from each antenna can be distinguished by changing the phase rotation amount of one propagation path estimation signal and using different propagation path estimation signals in each antenna. Therefore, for example, when using antenna 1 and antenna 2, when calculating the propagation path from antenna 1, the frequency conversion is performed by removing the pulse corresponding to the signal power from antenna 2. It is possible to calculate the frequency response from one. Similarly, when the propagation path from the antenna 2 is calculated, the frequency response from the antenna 2 can be calculated by removing the pulse corresponding to the signal power from the antenna 1 and performing frequency conversion.

That is, the interpolation information generation unit 121 selects frequency information for the medium power of subcarrier kLCM_A, k ⁇ 2LCM_A, which is disposed apart from LCM_A starting from subcarrier k to be interpolated, and subcarrier k Estimate the frequency response of
- m XI ⁇ I 2 ⁇ ⁇ (a, diff is MX (M l) Calculate the smallest m that satisfies / 2 or less and all integers). Then, let LCM-B be the aa least common multiple of all m, then LCM-B means the repetition of the waveform. That is, the interpolation information generation unit 121 uses LCM starting from the subcarrier k to be interpolated.
- the frequency information is selected from among subcarrier k soil LCM_B, k ⁇ 2 LCM_B, which are arranged at multiples of _B, and the frequency response of subcarrier k is estimated. However, considering fluctuations in the frequency response, it is better to use a subcarrier close to the subcarrier that performs the outer ring as much as possible.
