Description

支持中继的蜂窝系统避免上下行干扰的实现方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及移动通信无线接入系统技术, 更确切地说是涉及未来移动 通信系统中釆用中继(Relay )或称中继站 (RS )技术的无线接入系统避免 上下行干扰的实现方法及装置。 背景技术
覆盖范围是无线接入系统的一项重要指标, 无线接入系统一般通过基 站或接入点实现对服务区域的覆盖。 但是, 由于终端的移动性, 终端完全 有可能处于服务区之外, 从而无法得到无线接入服务; 即使终端处在服务 区之内, 信号的传输仍然可能受到传输路径上障碍的遮蔽, 而造成服务质 量的下降。在未来的移动通信系统中,需要传输非常高速率的数据如 lGbps, 同时由于频带分配条件的限制, 未来移动通信系统极有可能使用较高的通 信频带如 5GHz, 这两个因素都会导致覆盖范围的急剧下降, 若通过增加基 站或接入点的数量来解决覆盖范围的问题, 则基站 /接入点数量的增加在很 大程度上会影响到网络的建设与运行成本。 基于上述考虑, 为了解决服务 区的无缝覆盖与系统容量的增加并尽可能的节约成本, 在未来移动通信系 统的技术方案中将釆用中继 (RS )技术。 当终端 UE位于服务区外或者信 号质量不能满足需求时, 可以通过 RS对信号进行中转或转发, 以实现服务 区域的扩展或者提高传输的可靠性, Relay的主要作用是扩展覆盖区域和平 衡小区容量。 一般认为,基站及其相连的 RS所覆盖的区域称为增强型小区 ( REC )。
在不支持 Relay的时分双工 TDD蜂窝系统中, 基站 BS与终端 UE直 接建立链路, 无需通过 RS 转发, 因此, 一共只存在一条下行链路(DL, Down Link ) 和一条上行链路( UL, Up Link ), 即 BS到 UE的下行链路和 UE到 BS的上行链路。 这样, 在不支持 Relay的 TDD系统帧结构中就只存 在一个下上行转换点 (DUP )。
图 1中示意出传统 TDD系统帧结构及其传输顺序: BS到 UE的下行链 路 DL、 下上行保护间隔 DUP和 UE到 BS的上行链路 UL。 图中特别示意 出下上行转换点(DUP )即保护间隔的设计, 考虑到 BS到其覆盖范围内的 小区边缘 UE的传播时延为 , UE接收到 BS的延迟 r的下行信号后, 为了 让 BS在 DUP点及时接收, 还应提前 发送上行信号, 因此 DUP保护间隔 设计为 2τ。
但在支持 Relay的时分双工 TDD蜂窝系统中, Relay在扩展覆盖范围 的同时也引入了传播时延。 图 2中示意出未来支持 Relay的时分双工 TDD 蜂窝系统结构。 经过分析, 系统中一共存在四类链路: Ll、 L2、 L3和 L4, 其中 L1表示由 BS到 RS的单向链路, L4表示由 RS到 BS的单向链路, L2表示由 RS到 UE的单向链路, L3表示由 UE到 RS的单向链路, dl为 基站 BS到 RS的覆盖半径, d2为 RS到 UE的覆盖半径, d为 BS到 UE的 覆盖半径。 RS在链路 L1接收倒 BS的数据后会通过链路 L2转发给 UE, 同理, RS在链路 L3接收倒 UE的数据后会通过链路 L4转发给 BS。 因此, 从数据流方向来看, L1和 L2为下行链路(DL ), 而 L3和 L4为上行链路 ( UL ), 即共有两条上行链路和两条下行链路。 在 TDD系统中, L1和 L4 之间及 L2和 L3之间均使用时分双工 TDD。 从中继角度看, L1和 L4为中 继链路, 而 L2和 L3为接入链路。 因此, L1为下行中继链路, L2为下行 接入链路, L3为上行接入链路, L4为上行中继链路。 在考虑支持 Relay的 TDD蜂窝系统时, 一方面由于引入 Relay而将 BS的覆盖范围由 dl扩展到 d ( d=dl+d2 ), 另一方面由于四条链路都存在传播时延, 因此若仍按图 1中 所示的 BS来设计帧结构, 2τ长度的 DUP显然会引起上下行干扰, 当然 RS 也存在同样问题。
综上所述,对于未来移动通信系统中普遍釆用 Relay技术时,一方面要 考虑该系统中四类链路的传输顺序, 另一方面也要找到一种方法来弥补 Relay在扩展覆盖范围的同时引入的传播时延。 而按现有传统的 TDD帧结 构设计, 如图 1 中所示, 不能满足四条链路的传输而且会不可避免地产生 上下行之间的干扰。 发明内容
有鉴于此,本发明的主要目的在于提供一种在支持 Relay的蜂窝系统中 能有效避免上下行干扰的方法及装置, 既支持 TDD蜂窝系统中 Relay扩展 系统覆盖, 满足四条链路的传输, 又可有效地避免上下行干扰。
为达到上述目的, 本发明的技术方案是这样实现的: 一种支持 Relay 的蜂窝系统避免上下行干扰的实现方法, 包括以下步骤:
A、选择帧结构中的链路传输顺序,包括下行中继链路、下行接入链路、 上行接入链路和上行中继链路的传输顺序;
B、 在所选择的链路传输顺序中确定帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间 隔, 使上下行转换时的上下行干扰最小;
C、按选择的链路传输顺序和所确定的下上行转换点的保护间隔进行发 送与接收。
为达到上述目的, 本发明的技术方案还可以这样实现: 一种支持 Relay 的蜂窝系统避免上下行干扰的实现装置, 包括: 第一选择模块, 用于确定 帧结构中的链路传输顺序, 包括下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行接入 链路和上行中继链路的传输顺序;第二选择模块,用于在已确定的链路传输 顺序中确定帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔, 使上下行转换时的上下行 干扰最小; 发送 /接收模块, 按选择的链路传输顺序和所确定的下上行转换 点的保护间隔进行发送与接收。 本发明的一种实施方案是: 当选择的链路传输顺序为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、上行接入链路和上行中继链路时, 要将因 Relay扩展距离造 成的传播时延弥补到所述帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔中。
本发明的另一种实施方案是: 当选择的链路传输顺序为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继链路和上行接入链路时, 在所述帧结构下上行转 换点的保护间隔中无需弥补因 Relay扩展距离造成的传播时延。
本发明考虑支持 Relay的 TDD蜂窝系统因扩展覆盖而引入的上下行干 扰的解决方法及装置, 通过对帧结构的特殊设计而实现, 该特殊设计包括 帧结构中系统四类链路的传输顺序及下上行转换点的保护间隔。 当帧结构 中四条链路传输顺序设计为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行接入链路 和上行中继链路时, 对所需要的下上行转换的保护间隔要进行增加性调整, 即必须同时考虑 BS与 RS之间的路径传播时延及 RS与 UE间的路径传播 时延, 也就是要弥补 RS与 UE之间的传播时延, 这种增加可以仅体现在基 站的帧结构中, 也可以仅体现在中继的帧结构中。 当体现在基站的帧结构 中时, 需要改变已有不支持 Relay的 TDD系统基站的帧结构, 当体现在中 继的帧结构中时,则无需改变已有不支持 Relay的 TDD系统基站的帧结构。 但无论以哪种方式体现, 都会因增加了保护间隔而造成系统资源的浪费。 当帧结构中链路传输顺序设计为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继 链路和上行接入链路时,在考虑所需要的保护间隔时, 由于在终端 UE上行 接入 RS之前, RS因为提前上行接入 BS而空闲一段时间, 这样 UE完全有 充足的时间可以提前 RS与 UE间的路径传播时延而对 RS进行上行发送, 不会造成对 BS下行发送给 RS的干扰,也即只需考虑 BS与 RS之间的传播 时延、 而不必考虑 RS与 UE间的传播时延, 而 RS与 UE间的传播时延可 以由 RS提前给 BS发送而空闲的时间来保护, 同时这种顺序的收发和发收 转换点各有一个。 上述实施方案都可以有效避免支持 Relay的 TDD蜂窝系统因扩展覆盖 而引入的上下行干扰, 特别是在帧结构中链路顺序设计为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继链路和上行接入链路的传输顺序时, 不仅可以保 持基站帧结构中保护间隔为两倍的 BS与 RS之间的传播时延, 而且可以让 中继 RS获得更小的保护间隔。
本发明技术方案涉及 ITU IMT Advanced标准, 针对 IMT 2000的演进 提出。 附图说明

在传统 TDD系统中引入 Relay, 在扩展覆盖范围的同时也引入了传播 时延,而在现有传统 TDD系统的帧结构设计中,没有考虑支持 Relay的 TDD 系统存在的四类链路及其传输顺序问题, 也没有考虑到因扩展覆盖、 传统 TDD系统帧结构中的保护间隔已经不能满足上下行转换需求的问题, 本发 明提出支持扩展覆盖的中继 TDD 系统帧结构中链路传输顺序设计和保护 间隔长度设计, 增加保护间隔或要求特殊传输顺序的帧结构, 而可以有效 地避免 Relay扩展覆盖造成的上下行干扰。
参见图 3并结合参见图 2, 四条链路的传输顺序为下行中继链路、 下行 接入链路、 上行接入链路和上行中继链路。 图 3中上边两行分别为 BS帧结 构 (BS frame)和 RS帧结构 (RS frame), 下边三行分别示意出 BS、 RS、 UE 的传输时序。 首先说明中继扩展覆盖后所需要的保护间隔的增加性调 整。 假设 BS到 RS的传输半径为 dl, 传播时延为 , RS到 UE的传输半径 为 d2,传播时延为 2,BS和 RS的下上行转换点分别为 DUP— BS和 DUP— RS, 这里没有考虑 RS的收发转换时延。 从图 2中可知, RS将 BS的覆盖范围 由 dl扩展到 d ( d=dl+d2 ), 在 BS到 RS下行链路 L1传播时延7,的基础上 又同时引入了 RS到 UE下行链路 L2的传播时延 2。 因此, 为了弥补下行 链路 L1的传播时延 RS到 BS的上行链路 L4需要提前 这样 DUP— BS 的保护间隔至少为 2 ,,同时, RS还需要为 UE留有下上行转换而保留 2^间 隔, 所以, BS的 DUP— BS的长度总共为:
DUP_BS = 2(T1 +T2) (1)
考虑到传输距离和电磁波传输速度 3xlOs /s, DUP— BS和 DUP— RS与 距离 dl和 d2的关系如下:
O\JP_ S = 2{T1 +12) = 2(^ + 2)/(3xl08) (2) 因此, DUP— BS除了考虑双倍的 BS与 RS之间的传播时延, 还要附加 RS与 UE之间的双倍传播时延, 这样 Relay系统的 DUP— BS就比非 Relay 系统的 DUP长 22时间, 如果 = , 贝 ij DUP— BS=2DUP, 正好是非 Relay 系统的 DUP的两倍。 从另一个角度看, Relay将小区半径扩展了 d2, 那么 相应的所扩展距离 d2的路径传播时延^的双倍就应补偿到 DUP的保护间 隔中。 本实施方案的要点是: 当将增加的保护间隔放到 BS、 RS 帧结构中 时, BS和 RS的保护间隔分别为:
DUP _ B S = DUP _ RS = 2(τλ +12) = 2(^ + 2)/(3xl08)
从以上分析可知, TDD系统为了支持 Relay,需要将 BS的 DUP增加 2τ2 , 从而改变现有 TDD系统 BS的帧结构, 将不利于方案的实施。 本发明为克 服这一弊端给出另一实施例, 保持 BS的 DUP仍为 2^不变, 而对 Relay的 保护间隔进行调整。参见图 4,图 4中,上边两行分别为 BS帧结构( BS frame ) 和 RS帧结构(RS frame ), 下边三行分别示意出 BS、 RS、 UE的传输时序。 四类链路的传输顺序仍为 Ll、 L2、 L3、 L4, BS的 DUP— BS仍保持 2^ , 同 时, 为了支持 UE接入 RS而没有上下行干扰且与 BS的帧结构兼容, RS的 DUP— RS也应保持在 。 但是, RS上行接入 BS需要补偿他们之间的路径 传播时延, 因此, RS 上行链路中需要增加一个上上行转换保护间隔 UUP— RS。 从图 4中可知, RS上行接入 BS的起始点已经延迟了 , 因此, RS为了补偿 BS到 RS的延迟 , 还需提前 发送, 因此, RS的 UUP— RS 的长度应为:
UUP_RS = 2τ = 2dx /(3 x10s ) ( 3 )
本实施方案的要点是: 当保持 BS的 DUP仍为 不变, 将增加的保护 间隔放到 RS帧结构中时, RS需要增加一个上上行保护间隔 UUP— RS , BS 的保护间隔和 RS增加的保护间隔分别为:
( a) DUP _BS = DUP _RS = 2r1 = 2^ /(3 x10s )
(b) UUP RS = 2τ = 2dx /(3 x10s )
也就是说, 如果保持 BS 的保护间隔不变, 那么 RS 需要增加一个 UUP— RS保护间隔以弥补 RS上行接入的时延, 即为四倍的 BS与 RS间路 径的传播时延 ^。 对 UE来说, 则延时 接收 RS发送的数据和提前 向 RS 发送数据。
显然, 为了避免上下行之间的干扰, 以上两种保护间隔增加性调整方 案, 或者要增加 BS的保护间隔, 或者要增加 RS的保护间隔, 都将造成系 统资源的浪费。
本发明的另一实施方案是将下行链路 L3和 L4的顺序调整, 这样不仅 可以保持 BS的保护间隔不变,而且可以让 RS获得更小的保护间隔, 同时, RS只各需一个发收转换点和一个收发转换点, 具体如图 5所示。 图 5中, 上边两行分别为 BS帧结构( BS frame )和 RS帧结构( RS frame ), 下边三 行分别示意出 BS、 RS、 UE的传输时序。 DUP— BS、 DUP— RS都保持 2 ,不 变, 用于弥补 RS到 BS的上行传播时延。 同时, 不需要 UE到 RS的保护 间隔, 这是因为, 在 UE上行接入 RS之前, RS提前上行发送数据给 BS, 这样, RS就空闲出一段时间给 UE做保护间隔, UE完全有充足的时间可以 提前 2上行发送给 RS。
综上所述, 通过合理设计上下行链路和中继接入链路的顺序, 可以有 效的减小保护间隔, 从而提高系统资源利用率。 因此, 从提高系统资源利 用率角度看, 帧结构中四条链路的顺序为下行中继链路 Ll、 下行接入链路 L2、 上行中继链路 L4、 上行接入链路 L3的方案为优, 在这种顺序下, 无 需增加 BS和 RS的保护间隔, 同时转换点也比较少,且 BS和 RS的保护间 隔均为:
DUP BS = DUP RS = 2τλ = 2dx /(3 x 108 ) ( 4 )
从减小保护间隔和提高资源利用率角度看, 帧结构中四条链路的顺序 为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继链路和上行接入链路更优。
本发明为了支持 TDD系统中 Relay扩展系统覆盖,需在 BS和 RS的帧 结构中通过选择链路传输顺序和确定保护间隔两方面实现。 当选择的链路 传输顺序, 为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行接入链路和上行中继链 路时, 釆用增加系统保护间隔的技术方案, 此时可以将保护间隔增加在 BS 帧中, 增加的长度为 RS与 UE最大传播时延之和的双倍, 也可以在 RS增 加一个上上行保护间隔, 长度为 BS与 RS最大传播时延之和的双倍。 当选 择的链路传输顺序, 为下行中继链路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继链路和上 行接入链路时, BS帧与 RS帧中保护间隔的长度均为 BS与 RS间最大传播 时延之和的双倍。 本发明为了支持 TDD系统 Relay扩展覆盖范围,需要增加帧结构中 BS、 RS 的保护间隔或者调整帧结构中的链路顺序, 就能避免下上行干扰, 使 Relay有效的工作。
为实现上述方法,本发明还提出了一种支持 Relay的蜂窝系统避免上下 行干扰的实现装置, 包括第一选择模块、 第二选择模块和发送 /接收模块; 其中, 第一选择模块, 用于确定帧结构中的链路传输顺序, 包括下行中继 链路、 下行接入链路、 上行接入链路和上行中继链路的传输顺序;第二选择 模块, 用于在已确定的链路传输顺序中确定帧结构中下上行转换点的保护 间隔, 使上下行转换时的上下行干扰最小; 发送 /接收模块, 按选择的链路 传输顺序和所确定的下上行转换点的保护间隔进行发送与接收。
所述第一选择模块确定的帧结构中的链路传输顺序可以为: 下行中继 链路、 下行接入链路、 上行接入链路和上行中继链路; 所述第二选择模块 确定帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔,是将因 Relay扩展距离造成的传播 时延弥补到所述帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔中。 其中, 第二选择模 块确定的经弥补后的下上行转换点的保护间隔为: 基站 BS与中继 RS间路 径的传播时延和中继 RS与终端 UE间路径的传播时延之和的两倍。
这里, 第二选择模块将基站 BS帧结构中的保护间隔, 确定为基站 BS 与中继 RS间路径的传播时延和中继 RS与终端 UE间路径的传播时延之和 的两倍; 将中继 RS帧结构中的保护间隔确定为两倍的基站 BS与中继 RS 间路径的传播时延。 或者, 将基站 BS帧结构中的保护间隔, 确定为两倍的 基站 BS与中继 RS间路径的传播时延; 将中继 RS帧结构中的保护间隔, 确定为四倍的基站 BS与中继 RS间路径的传播时延。
第一选择模块确定的帧结构中的链路传输顺序还可以为: 下行中继链 路、 下行接入链路、 上行中继链路和上行接入链路; 第二选择模块确定帧 结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔中无需弥补因 Relay扩展距离造成的传播 时延。 其中, 第二选择模块确定帧结构中下上行转换点的保护间隔只考虑 基站 BS与中继 RS间路径的传播时延。
这里, 第二选择模块确定基站 BS 帧结构中的保护间隔为两倍的基站 BS与中继 RS间路径的传播时延; 第二选择模块确定中继 RS帧结构中的 保护间隔为两倍的基站 B S与中继 R S间路径的传播时延。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围。
