在图 3 所示的智能天线系统设置流程示意图中, 智能天线系统侧配置有 单元方向图和基础权值; 基站设备侧通过查询智能天线系统获得单元方向图 和基础权值, 根据单元方向图对基础权值进行优化, 根据优化后的权值生成 赋形权值进行与智能天线系统的赋形设置。 具体步骤包括:  In the schematic diagram of the smart antenna system setting process shown in FIG. 3, the smart antenna system side is configured with a unit direction map and a base weight; the base station device side obtains a unit direction map and a base weight value by querying the smart antenna system, according to the unit direction map. The basic weight is optimized, and the shaped weight is generated according to the optimized weight to perform the shaping setting with the smart antenna system. The specific steps include:
步骤 301、 在智能天线系统中配置单元方向图。  Step 301: Configure a unit pattern in the smart antenna system.
单元方向图是组成智能天线的单个天线阵列的波束方向图信息, 它是智 能天线实现广播及业务波束赋形的基础, 单元方向图的优劣影响了最终的智 能天线赋形效果。  The unit pattern is the beam pattern information of a single antenna array that constitutes a smart antenna. It is the basis for the intelligent antenna to realize the broadcast and service beamforming. The advantages and disadvantages of the unit pattern affect the final intelligent antenna shaping effect.
此步骤中, 可通过对智能天线的某个阵列的方向图进行测试或者仿真, 获得其单元阵列的波束方向图, 通过遍历全部端口获得智能天线全部阵列的 单元方向图, 并将得到的单元方向图配置到智能天线系统中。 单元方向图包 括在 0 ~ 360度方向的归一化增益信息。  In this step, the direction pattern of an array of smart antennas can be tested or simulated to obtain the beam pattern of the cell array, and the cell pattern of all arrays of the smart antennas is obtained by traversing all the ports, and the obtained cell direction is obtained. The diagram is configured into a smart antenna system. The unit pattern includes normalized gain information in the 0 to 360 degree direction.
步骤 302、 在智能天线系统中配置基础权值。  Step 302: Configure a base weight in the smart antenna system.
此步骤中, 可以通过外接功分板模拟权值设定 (设定方式可同前述实施 例中的步骤 101 ), 还可以通过阵列详细信息进行仿真计算的方式获得智能天 线侧符合技术要求的基础权值, 并配置到智能天线系统中。 权值信息可以是 区分不同频点的一组或者几组包含幅度和相位信息的值。 In this step, the external power board can be used to simulate the weight setting (the setting mode can be the same as step 101 in the previous embodiment), and the smart day can also be obtained by performing simulation calculation through the array detailed information. The line side meets the basic weight of the technical requirements and is configured into the smart antenna system. The weight information may be a group or groups of values containing different frequency points that contain amplitude and phase information.
通过仿真计算的方式可以是: 在获得方向图及基本阵列信息后, 可以通 过专业天线设计软件或者通过编程方式实现仿真算法。 其基本原理是把未优 化权值、 天线方向图信息、 阵列基本信息(如阵列间距, 对于 TD-SCDMA系 统目前统一取 75mm )、 预期天线波束指标作为输入条件, 根据一定的算法结 合权值信息和单元方向图信息模拟合成后的天线波束。  The simulation calculation method can be: After obtaining the pattern and the basic array information, the simulation algorithm can be realized by professional antenna design software or by programming. The basic principle is to combine the unoptimized weight, the antenna pattern information, the array basic information (such as the array spacing, the current TD-SCDMA system is 75mm uniformly), the expected antenna beam index as the input condition, and the weight information according to a certain algorithm. And the unit pattern information simulates the synthesized antenna beam.
步骤 303、 智能天线系统根据基站设备的查询, 将其单元方向图和基础权 值传输到基站设备侧。  Step 303: The smart antenna system transmits the unit direction pattern and the base weight to the base station device side according to the query of the base station device.
此步骤中, 智能天线系统以某种固定的格式将单元方向图和基础权值传 输到基站设备侧, 例如在发送基础权值时可采用前述表 1 示的格式, 在发送 单元方向图时可釆用如表 2所示的格式:  In this step, the smart antenna system transmits the unit pattern and the base weight to the base station device side in a certain fixed format. For example, when transmitting the basic weight value, the format shown in Table 1 above may be used, and when the unit direction pattern is sent, Use the format shown in Table 2:
表 2  Table 2
Figure imgf000009_0001
步骤 304、 基站设备侧根据单元方向图对基础权值进行优化处理。
Figure imgf000009_0001
Step 304: The base station device side performs optimization processing on the base weight according to the unit direction map.
此步骤中, 基站设备侧可通过优化权值算法对权值进行进一步优化, 该 算法可通过较为复杂的迭代算法或从系统算法的角度获取。  In this step, the base station device side can further optimize the weight by optimizing the weight algorithm, and the algorithm can be obtained through a relatively complex iterative algorithm or from a system algorithm.
例如, 优化处理过程可以是: 在获得方向图及基本阵列信息后, 通过专 业天线设计软件或者通过编程方式实现仿真算法。 其基本原理是把未优化权 值、 天线方向图信息、 阵列基本信息(如阵列间距, 对于 TD-SCDMA系统目 前统一取 75mm )、 预期天线波束指标作为输入条件, 根据一定的算法结合权 值信息和单元方向图信息模拟合成后的天线波束, 如果天线波束各项指标不 符合输入的预期指标则通过改变权值信息进行迭代取最优解, 直到满足要求。 取满足波束要求后的权值信息作为优化权值。 步骤 305、基站设备侧生成赋形权值, 并根据该赋形数据与智能天线系统 进行赋形设置。 For example, the optimization process may be: After obtaining the pattern and the basic array information, the simulation algorithm is implemented by professional antenna design software or by programming. The basic principle is to combine the unoptimized weight, the antenna pattern information, the array basic information (such as the array spacing, the current TD-SCDMA system is 75mm uniformly), the expected antenna beam index as the input condition, and the weight information according to a certain algorithm. And the unit direction map information simulates the synthesized antenna beam. If the antenna beam indicators do not meet the input expected index, the optimal solution is iterated by changing the weight information until the requirement is met. The weight information after the beam requirement is satisfied is taken as the optimization weight. Step 305: The base station device side generates an shaping weight, and performs shaping setting according to the shaping data and the smart antenna system.
此步骤中, 基站设备侧将优化处理后得到的优化权值作为赋形权值, 进 行与智能天线的赋形设置。  In this step, the base station device side uses the optimized weight obtained after the optimization process as the shaping weight, and performs the shaping setting with the smart antenna.
上述步骤 301和步骤 302没有严格的时间顺序要求。  The above steps 301 and 302 have no strict chronological requirements.
