Description

在无线中继网络中
确定小区间干扰的方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及无线通信系统, 尤其涉及无线中继网络。 背景技术
由于目前为 3G、 4G等无线通信系统颁发的频带资源十分有限, 因 此无线网络的各个小区通常使用相同的频率资源, 这就可能导致某一小 区的发射机以一定频率的发射信号散播到相邻小区, 对相邻小区内以该 频率接收本小区信号的接收机产生小区间干扰。 因此, 小区间干扰问题 成为了一个必须解决的重要问题, 解决这一问题的一个关键之处是估计 出在将来某一子帧中的 SINR (信干噪比) 大小, 如 CQI (信道 量标 识), 根据 SINR才能进行链路适配, 多用户调度、 HARQ (混合式自动 重传) 等等工作。
在 3GPP中, 已经对这一问题进行了一定研究, 并提出了一定的解 决方案。 在 LTE (长期演进)标准中, 某一小区内的基站 A以恒定的功 率 (例如 46dBm )发射下行信号, 以另一小区内的用户设备 UE受到该 基站 A发射的信号干扰为例: 用户设备(UE ) 测量在该干扰影响下的 某一子帧内的 SINR, 并将其反馈给本用户设备所属的基站 由于基站 A发射下行信号的功率是恒定的, 因此其对相邻小区的用户设备(UE ) 造成的干扰的统计特性主要取决于信道衰落的变化, 所以, 基站 B可以 才艮据信道衰落的统计特性, 以及用户设备反馈的某一子帧中的各个资源 块的 SINR, 采用干扰估计的方法估计出在将来另一子帧中的某一资源 块的 SINR。 特别地, 对于间隔小于信道相干时间内的两个子帧, 在同 一频率上所测量得到的 SINR值 本相同的。
目前, 多跳中继技术在 LTE-A (先进的长期演进)标准中得到了广 泛的讨论, 并且已经被引入到 3GPP标准中。 在多跳中继技术中, 通常 假定中继站处于半双工 (Half-duplex ) 的工作状态, 不能够同时进行收 发。 以下行为例, 在某一小区 C1中, 在一个子帧中, 基站 eNB 1在一 定工作频率上将下行数据发送给中继站 RN 1 ; 在之后的另一个子帧中, 中继站 RN 1在相同的工作频率上将该下行数据发送给用户设备 UE 1。 并且, 当不采用基站和中继站间的协作中继方式时,为了避免相互干扰, 在中继站 RN 1转发数据给 UE 1时,基站 eNB 1在相同的工作频率上通 常不再发送数据而处于静默状态。 发明内容
在有中继的情况下, 考虑小区间干扰问题, 某个小区受到的干扰 的干扰源不在仅仅是干扰小区的基站, 而可能受到基站和中继站这些 潜在干扰源中的任一个或其组合的干扰。 以下行传输为例, 如图 1和 图 2所示, 在小区 C1中, 一个频率资源被交替地分配给基站 eNB 1 和中继站 RN 1。 其中, 如图 1所示, 该频率在子帧 1上被分配给基 站 eNB 1进行回传链路上至中继站 RN 1的下行通信, 该下行信号对 相邻小区的基站 eNB 2、中继站 RN 2和用户设备 UE 2产生一定干扰。 在之后的子帧 2上, 如图 2所示, 该频率被分配给中继站 RN 1进行 接入链路上至用户设备 UE 1的下行通信, 该下行信号对相邻小区的 基站 eNB 2、 中继站 RN 2和用户设备 UE 2产生一定干扰。
基站和中继站的发射功率有较大差别, 例如基站的发射功率在标 准中规定是 46dBm, 而中继站是 30dBm; 它们对于相邻小区的距离 也有较大不同, 因此它们对相邻小区产生的干扰也就不尽相同。 这导 致相邻小区受到的干扰具有很大的不确定性。 申请人在满负荷 (Full buffer ) 业务模型下对无中继和有中继两种条件下的网络运行进行了 仿真 (仿真所基于的无线网络参数如图 4所示)。 在两种条件下, 对 10个用户采用轮询 (Round obm ) 的方式进行月良务。 图 3示出了在 90ms的时间窗口内 10个用户各自的用户 SINR的变异系数(SINR的 标准差与 SINR均值之比)。可以看出,有中继条件下的变异系数较高, 这意味着有中继时 SINR的波动很大, 这导致即使准确地测量得到了 某一子帧的 SINR, 根据该变异系数统计特性也很难准确地估计将来 的 SINR。 所以, 中继的出现在相邻小区内产生了相当严重的干扰不 确定问题, 采用传统的估计方法无法准确地估计干 ·ί尤和 SINR, 这直 接影响了链路适配, 多用户调度、 HARQ (混合式自动重传) 等工作, 降低了系统性能。如何在有中继的条件下确定小区间干扰,成为了 LTE-A 等无线技术需要解决的一个重要问题。
为了解决这一问题, 根据本发明的一个方面, 提供了一种在无线 中继网络的通信管理设备中用于确定本小区的通信设备受到的小区 间干扰的方法, 包括如下步骤: 1. 接收一个第一信息, 所述第一信息 用于指示至少一个特定通信资源在一干扰小区中被分别分配给的所 述干扰小区内的特定干扰源; 11. 根据所述特定干扰源, 确定所述通 信设备在所述特定通信资源上受到的来自所述干扰小区的小区间干 扰。
根据本发明的另一个方面, 提供了一种在无线中继网络的基站中 用于辅助受本小区干扰的小区的通信管理设备确定小区间干扰的方 法, 包括如下步骤: I. 将至少一个通信资源分别分配给本小区内的至 少部分通信设备; II. 将一个第一信息提供给受本小区干扰的小区所 属的基站, 所述第一信息指示所述至少一个通信资源在本小区内被分 别分配给的通信设备。
根据本发明的第三个方面, 提供了一种在无线中继网络的通信管 理设备中用于确定本小区的通信设备受到的小区间干扰的设备, 包 括: 接收机, 用于接收一个第一信息, 所述第一信息用于指示至少一 个特定通信资源在一干扰小区中被分别分配给的所述干扰小区内的 特定干扰源; 确定装置, 用于根据所述特定干扰源, 确定所述通信设 备在所述特定通信资源上受到的来自所述干扰小区的小区间干扰。
根据本发明的第四个方面, 提供了一种在无线中继网络的基站中 用于辅助受本小区干扰的小区的通信管理设备确定小区间干扰的设 备, 包括: 资源分配装置, 用于将至少一个通信资源分别分配给本小 区内的至少部分通信设备; 发射机, 用于将一个第一信息提供给受本 小区干扰的小区所属的基站, 所述第一信息指示所述至少一个通信资 源在本小区内被分别分配给的通信设备。
根据本发明的实施例, 造成干扰的小区的基站将通信资源在该小 区内被分配给的通信设备告知受到干扰的小区的基站, 受到干扰的小 区的基站得以确定该通信资源上该造成干扰的小区的干扰源, 并根据 该干扰源确定该造成干扰的小区将会造成的小区间干扰, 这解决了干 扰不确定问题。 附图说明

以下参照图 5至图 8 , 以小区 C2中的基站 eNB 2确定在子帧 1、 2和 3中相邻小区 CI和 CI '造成小区间干扰为例对本发明的实施例进 行描述。
小区 C1包括基站 eNB 1 , 中继站 RN 1和用户设备 UE 1。 基站 eNB 1包括用于辅助受本小区干扰的小区 C2的基站 eNB 2确定小区 间干扰的设备 1 , 该设备包括一个资源分配装置 10和一个发射机 11。 小区 Cl,包括基站 eNB Γ , 中继站 RN Γ和用户设备 UE Γ。基站 eNB Γ包括用于辅助受本小区干扰的小区 C2的基站 eNB 2确定小区间干 扰的设备, 该设备包括一个资源分配装置 10,和一个发射机 11 '。 小区 C2包括基站 eNB 2, 中继站 RN 2和用户设备 UE 2。基站 eNB 2包括 设备 2, 该设备包括一个接收机 20和一个确定装置 21。
如图 8所示, 首先, 在步骤 S10中, 基站 eNB 1的资源分配装置 区内的基站 eNB 1和中继站 RN 1。 该分配是基于信道质量、 长期的 业务信息、 基站 eNB 1和中继站 RN 1分别接入的用户设备数量等等 因素。
初始阶段, 基站 eNB 1和中继站 RN 1分别占有的下行资源块数 量和它们分别接入的用户设备数量成正比。 该分配是半静态的, 分配 结果将保持一段时间后再次进行分配, 该技术方案在后文中将进行详 细描述。
基站 eNB 1使用所分配的下行资源块用于基站 eNB 1将下行数据 直接发送给所辖中继站 RN 1 和用户设备 UE。 根据回传链路(基站 eNB 1和中继站 RN 1之间) 和接入链路(中继站 RN 1和用户设备 UE 1之间) 的链路质量, 中继站 RN 1 占有的下行资源块将力求与回 传链路上的资源块数目相匹配, 以求最大化资源利用率。
在本实施例中, 简便而不失一般性, 假定一个单位资源块的频域 宽度是整个频带, 则以资源块为单位的资源分配就等效为以子帧为单 位的资源分配。 可以理解, 本发明并不限于此, 以子帧中的资源块为 单位进行分配同样处于本发明的保护范围内, 在后文中将进行描述。
在步骤 S10中, 资源分配装置 10将子帧 1分配给基站 eNB 1, 用于在回传链路发送下行数据给中继站 RN 1 ; 将子帧 2分配给中继 站 RN 1 , 用于接入链路发送下行数据给用户设备 UE 1 ; 并由于业务 量不饱满, 确定不分配使用子帧 3。
在小区 C1 中, 基站 eNB 1将该分配结果通过 Un接口通知中继 站 RN 1。
在步驟 S11 中, 发射机 11将一个第一信息通过基站间接口 (如 X2接口 )提供给受本小区干扰的小区 C2所属的基站 eNB 2, 该第一 信息指示子帧 1和 2在本小区内被分别分配给的基站 eNB 1和中继站 RN 1 , 还指示子帧 3在本小区内没有被分配使用。 当然, 除了子帧 1、 2和 3之外, 该第一信息中还类似地包括调度时段内的其他子帧的分 配情况, 这里为简明起见不对其他子帧进行描述。
对于干扰小区 Cl,, 与以上步骤 S10类似地, 干扰小区 Cl,的基 站 eNB l ' 的资源分配装置 10'将子帧 1和 2分配给中继站 RN Γ在接 入链路发送下行数据给用户设备 UE Γ;将子帧 3分配给中继站 RN 1 ' 在回传链路中发送上行数据给基站 eNB Γ。 基站 eNB Γ的发射机 1 Γ 将第一信息'发送给基站 eNB 2, 其中第一信息 '指示了子帧 1、 2和 3 在本小区 C1 '内分配给的通信设备。
对于子帧 1、 2和 3 , 在小区 C2中, 子帧 1被分配给基站 eNB 2, 用于在回传链路发送下行数据给中继站 RN 2; 子帧 2和 3都被分配 给中继站 RN 2, 用于接入链路发送下行数据给用户设备 UE 2。 对于 各个子帧, 基站 eNB 2通过该第一信息和第一信息,确定来自干扰小 区 C1 和 C1 '的各自的干扰源, 并分别确定各干扰源在子帧中对通信 设备造成的干扰, 最后计算出通信设备受到的总的干扰或在总的干扰 下的通信设备的 SINR。
具体的, 对于干扰小区 Cl, 在步骤 S20中, 基站 eNB 2的接收 机 20接收到该第一信息,并根据该信息确定子帧 1在小区 C1中被分 配给基站 eNB 1使用, 子帧 2在小区 C1中被分配给中继站 RN 1使 用, 子帧 3在小区 C1中没有被分配使用。
基站 eNB 2可以设定一个逻辑表, 分别标明子帧 1、 2和 3在小 区 CI 中是否被分配使用, 以及分配给什么通信设备使用。 优选地, 基站 eNB 2 可以为每一个中继站和用户设备分别建立该逻辑表。 当 然, 各个中继站和用户设备在同一子帧中受到的来自小区 C1 的干扰 相同的情况下, 不需要为每一个中继站和用户设备分别建立该逻辑 表。
在步驟 S21 中, 确定装置 21根据各子帧是否被分配使用, 以及 分配给什么通信设备使用, 确定本小区内使用各子帧的通信设备受到 的来自小区 C1的小区间干扰。
对于子帧 1来说,确定装置 21根据子帧 1在小区 C1 内被分配给 eNB 1, 对 eNB 1在子帧 1中对中继站 RN 2造成的干扰进行估计。
在一个实施例中, 基站 eNB 2控制中继站 RN 2在子帧 1之前的 子帧上测量基站 eNB 1对 RN 2产生的干扰功率均值以及统计特性。 中继站 RN 2可以通过 eNB 1发送的导频等信号进行测量。 确定装置 21获取到测量得到的干扰功率均值和统计特性,采用常用的干扰估计 方法, 估计出基站 eNB 1在子帧 1上对中继站 RN 2造成的干扰的功 率。 可以理解, 根据干扰功率的均值和统计特性进行干扰估计是本领 域的一般技术人员所熟知的, 例如维纳滤波等方法都可以使用, 本发 明在此不做赘述。
在另一个实施例中, 确定装置 21确定中继站 RN 2和基站 eNB 1 之间的距离, 并确定基站 eNB 1 的发射功率, 例如标准中规定的
46dBm。 而后, 确定装置 21 才艮据相对距离和发射功率, 通过计算无 线信号传输该距离后的衰减,计算出基站 eNB 1在子帧 1上对中继站 RN 2造成的干扰的功率 ―。
则对于子帧 1来说, 中继站 RN 2在子帧 1上受到的来自干扰小 区 C1的小区间干 得以确定。 对于子帧 2来说, 与以上两个实施例 类似地, 确定装置 21根据子帧 2在小区 C1 内被分配给 RN 1 , (根据 UE 2测量 RN 1发送的导频而得到的干扰特性, 或根据 RN 1和 UE 2 之间的距离以及 RN 1的发射功率 30dBm计算衰减)对 RN 1在子帧 2中对用户设备 UE 2造成的干扰 /∞¾/ 2进行估计。 对于子帧 3来说, 确定用户设备 UE 2在子帧 3上不受干扰小区 C1的小区间干扰, 即 一。。
对于干扰小区 Cl,, 与步驟 S20类似地, 基站 eNB 2在步驟 S20' 中确定中继站 RN 2在子帧 1上受到的来自中继站 RN Γ的干 ·ί尤, 并 确定用户设备 UE 2在子帧 2和 3上受到的来自中继站 RN Γ的干扰 而后, 与步驟 S21类似地, 在步驟 S21 '中, 基站 eNB 2分别确定在子 帧 1、2和 3中通信设备受到的来自小区 Cl,的 ,/w2和/: — 3
而后, 在步骤 S22中, 对于子帧 1、 2和 3中, 基站 eNB 2可以 内接收机受到的总的干扰, 进而计算出在总的干扰情况下接收机的 SINR。 具体的, 如下公式所表述: 膽 匿」· = - ~~ S hf:ameJ ,z≡ { 2,3} ( i )
subframej subframe
其中, W ™— ,是第 i子帧的接收机在第 i子帧的 SINR, Ssubfmmej 第 i子帧的有用信号功率, R是噪声功率。
而后, 基站 eNB 2根据各个子帧中 SINR, 对各个子帧分别进行链 路适配, 根据各个子帧进行多用户调度、 HARQ (混合式自动重传)等 等操作。 根据 SINR进行这些操作的方法是本领域的一般技术人员所熟 知的, 本发明在此不故赘述。
在另一种情况下, 小区 C1确定在子帧 2中采用协同工作方式, 即 中继站 RN 1和基站 eNB 1以相同频率同步地向用户设备 UE 1发送下行 信号, 两个下行信号叠加后产生增益。 在这种情况下, 中继站 RN 1和 基站 eNB 1都是小区 C2中的用户设备 UE 2的特定干扰源。与上述方法 类似的, 基站 eNB 1在第一信息中将子帧 2中继站 RN 1和基站 eNB 1 告知基站 eNB 2, 基站 eNB 2获取用户设备 UE 2在子帧 2之前通过中 继站 RN 1和基站 eNB 1发射的导频测量得到两者各自的干扰, 并通过 干扰估计方法, 分别估计出中继站 RN 1和基站 eNB 1在子帧 2中对用 户设备 UE 2产生的干扰, 并进一步与其他特定干扰源产生的干扰一起 计算出子帧 2时用户设备 UE 2的 SINR。 在以上的实施例中, 小区 C2采取一种集中式的控制方式, 由基站 eNB 2负责回传链路和接入链路, 因此基站 eNB 2计算子帧 1时 RN 2 的 SINR, 对回传链路进行适配; 并计算子帧 2和 3时 UE 2的 SINR, 对接入链路进行适配。 在另一个实施例中, 小区 C2是采用分布式的控 制方式, 基站 eNB 2仅负责回传链路, 不负责接入链路, 中继站 RN 2 负责接入链路。在这个实施例中,基站 eNB 2计算子帧 1时 RN 2的 SINR, 对回传链路进行适配, 它还将第一信息提供给中继站 RN 2。 与以上步骤 S20和 S21类似地, 中继站 RN 2接收来自基站 eNB 2的第一信息, 确 定子帧 2和 3时小区 C1和 C1 '各自的对 UE 2造成干扰的干扰源, 并确 定干扰源产生的干扰, 计算出子帧 2和 3时 UE 2的 SINR, 继而进行接 入链路的适配等其他操作。 在以上实施中, 子帧中的单位资源块的频域宽度是整个频带, 因 此以 "子帧,, 作为单位通信资源进行说明。 可以理解, 当子帧中包括 多个资源块时, 资源块作为单位通信资源,基站 eNB 1和 eNB Γ将各 个资源块分别分配给本小区内的至少部分通信设备, 并指示各个资源 块在本小区内被分别分配给的通信设备的第一信息提供给基站 eNB 2。基站 eNB 2根据资源块上的小区 C1和 C1 '中被分配给的通信设备, 也就是特定干扰源, 确定在资源块上受到的来自小区 C1 和 cr的小 区间干扰。 在一段时间后, 小区 C1 (或 C1 ' )的业务量可能会发生变化, 则每 隔一段时间, 基站 eNB 1 (或 eNB Γ )将对无线资源重新进行分配, 以 适合业务量的变化, 并将重新分配的结果告知小区 C2。
具体的,基站 eNB 1获取中继站 RN 1所緩存的通信信息的信息量 的变化 Δ (例如以 bit为单位)。 并在步骤 S12中, 才艮据该变化量△和 变化阈值, 确定增加、 维持不变或减少分配给中继站的资源块数量。
在一个优选的实施例中, 重新分配给中继站 RN 1的资源块数量 X'和之前分配给中继站 RN 1的资源块数量 X的函数关系为: < 7
Figure imgf000012_0001
其中, 和7是两个正的阈值, max N m bits _perRB是每一个资源块能够 承载的最多的信息量 (例如使用系统支持的最高阶的调制方式), 运 算符「·Ί是对其中的值 ·进行上取整。
而后, 在步骤 S13中, 基站 eNB 2根据所确定的中继站增加、 维 持不变或减少的资源块数量 X,, 在下一调度周期内将 X,个资源块重 新分配给中继站, 将剩余资源块分配给本基站。
接着, 在步骤 S14中, 基站 eNB 2将新的第一信息通过例如 X2 接口提供给小区 C2所属的基站 eNB 2, 新的第一信息指示一定调度 时间内的各个资源块在小区 C1 内被重新分配给的通信设备。 在实际 系统中, 第一信息可以是重新分配的各个资源块分别对应的通信设 备, 也可以是相对于上一次分配后发生变化的部分资源块分别对应的 通信设备。
收到新的第一信息的基站 eNB 2将会根据新的各个资源块的在小 区 C1 中的特定干扰源, 确定在各个资源块上通信设备受到的来自小 区 C1的干扰, 并重新进行链路适配等操作。 在完成后, 基站 eNB 2 将反馈一确认消息回基站 eNB 1。
在基站 eNB 1接收到该确认消息后, 它指示本小区内的通信设备 按照该重新分配的资源进行通信。
在实际系统中, 基站 eNB 1可以将第一信息发送给整个无线通信 网络中的所有小区,也可以发送给可能对其产生主要干扰(例如相邻) 的部分小区。 该部分小区可以通过各个小区实际受到的来自小区 C1 的干扰和一个预先设置的干扰阈值筛选出来。 申请人对本发明的实施例的性能和现有技术的性能进行了仿真 比较, 仿真基于的无线通信网络的参数如图 4所示。 图 9示出了在轮 询的服务方式下, 本发明和现有技术的归一化用户吞吐量的曲线。 可 以看出,在相同概率的条件下,本发明的归一化吞吐量比现有技术高。 图 10示出了在比例公平的服务方式下, 本发明和现有技术的用户吞 吐量的曲线。 可以看出, 在相同概率的条件下, 本发明的归一化吞吐 量比现有技术高。
