Description
但し、P1シンボルをp1(t)で表し、その有効シンボルをp1A(t)で表し、周波数シフト量を+fSHとし、IFFT後の1サンプル時間をTとしている。tは、時間であり、P1シンボルの開始時間を0としている。なお、DVB-T2伝送方式において、帯域幅8MHzの場合、T=7/64μsとなり、有効シンボル区間の時間幅(以下、適宜「有効シンボル長」と称す。)は、1024T=112μsとなる。
以下、本発明の第1の実施の形態のOFDM送信装置1及びOFDM受信装置2について図面を参照して説明する。第1及び後述する第2から第4の実施の形態では、一例として第二世代欧州地上デジタル放送規格であるDVB-T2伝送方式およびFEF区間のP1シンボルを例に挙げて説明を行う。
図1は、第1の実施の形態におけるOFDM送信装置1の構成を示すブロック図であり、OFDM送信装置1は、P1シンボル生成部11と、データシンボル生成部12と、P1シンボル挿入部13とを備える。P1シンボル生成部11は、図面を参照して後述するように、2つのP1シンボルを生成してP1シンボル挿入部13へ出力する。データシンボル生成部12は、入力データ(例えば、P1シンボルで送信するデータ以外のデータ)に対して、符号化、変調、パイロット挿入、ガードインターバル付加、等の処理を実施することによってP1シンボルとは別の複数のデータシンボルを生成してP1シンボル挿入部13へ出力する。P1シンボル挿入部13は、データシンボル生成部12で生成されたデータシンボルの間にP1シンボル生成部11で生成されたP1シンボルを挿入して出力する。P1シンボル挿入部13の出力信号は、OFDM送信装置1の不図示の処理部によって、デジタル信号からアナログ信号への変換、送信周波数帯へのアップコンバートなどの処理が施された後、送信される。なお、OFDM送信装置1は、P1シンボル生成部11に特徴があり、その他の部分は必要に応じて適宜変更或いは削除し、他の構成を適宜追加可能である(他の本発明に関連するOFDM送信装置においても同様)。例えば、データシンボル生成部12を、P1シンボルとは別のシンボルを生成するシンボル生成部に置き換えてもよく、別のシンボルの一部がデータシンボルであっても良い。
図2は、図1のP1シンボル生成部11の構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル生成部11は、第一P1シンボル生成部100と第二P1シンボル生成部200とを備える。
図3は図2の第一P1シンボル生成部100の構成を示すブロック図である。ここでは、第一P1シンボルは、DVB-T2伝送方式及びFEF区間で用いられているP1シンボルとするが、これに限られない。
但し、第一P1シンボルをp11st(t)で表し、その有効シンボルをp11stA(t)で表し、周波数シフト量を+fSHとし、IFFT後の1サンプル時間をTとしている。tは、時間であり、第一P1シンボルの開始時間を0としている。なお、DVB-T2伝送方式において、帯域幅8MHzの場合、T=7/64μsとなり、有効シンボル長は、1024T=112μsとなる。
図7は図2の第二P1シンボル生成部200の構成を示すブロック図である。
但し、第二P1シンボルをp12nd (t’)で表し、有効シンボルをp12ndA(t’)で表し、周波数シフト量を-fSHとし、IFFT後の1サンプル時間をTとしている。t’は、時間であり、第二P1シンボルの開始時間を0としている。なお、DVB-T2伝送方式において、帯域幅8MHzの場合、T=7/64μsとなり、有効シンボル長は、1024T=112μsとなる。
図10は、第1の実施の形態におけるOFDM受信装置2の構成を示すブロック図であり、OFDM受信装置2は、アンテナ21と、チューナ22と、復調部23とを備える。
図11は、図10のP1シンボル復調部26の構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル復調部26は、第一P1シンボル復調部300と第二P1シンボル復調部400とを備える。
図12は図11の第一P1シンボル復調部300の構成を示すブロック図であり、第一P1シンボル復調部300は、P1位置検出部301とFFT部302とP1デコード部303とを備える。
図14は図11の第二P1シンボル復調部400の構成を示すブロック図であり、第二P1シンボル復調部400は、P1位置検出部401とFFT部402とP1デコード部403とを備える。
図18(a)~(c)は、第一P1シンボル復調部300のP1位置検出部301における第二P1シンボルの前側部分の相関の様子を示す模式図である。
上述した第1の実施の形態によれば、送信側では、前側ガードインターバル区間の信号及び後ろ側ガードインターバル区間の信号の生成において、第一P1シンボルでは有効シンボル区間の該当部分の信号を周波数シフト量+fSH周波数シフトさせ(図6参照)、第二P1シンボルでは周波数シフト量-fSH(第一P1シンボルにおける周波数シフト量+fSHと絶対値が同じで、符号が異なる周波数シフト量)周波数シフトさせている(図8参照)。これによって、受信側では、複数のピークが検出される場合に、そのピークが別シンボルによるものか遅延波によるものかを容易に見分けがつき、安定した受信が可能となる。また、FEF区間を用いて2つのP1シンボル(第一P1シンボル、第二P1シンボル)を送信する場合、第一P1シンボルがFEF区間の先頭シンボルとなり、第一P1シンボル復調用の復調部のみを有するDVB-T2受信機は、第二P1シンボルの影響を受けることは無く、既存のDVB-T2受信機との親和性を保つことができる。
以下、本発明の第2の実施の形態のOFDM送信装置およびOFDM受信装置について図面を参照して説明する。なお、本実施の形態において、第1の実施の形態の構成要素と実質的に同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付し、その説明が適用できるため本実施の形態ではその説明を省略し、或いは、簡単な記載に留める。
本実施の形態のOFDM送信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル生成部11と異なるP1シンボル生成部11Aを備え、以下、P1シンボル生成部11Aについて説明する。
図20は、第2の実施の形態におけるOFDM送信装置のP1シンボル生成部11Aの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル生成部11Aは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを生成する第一P1シンボル生成部100と第二P1シンボル生成部200Aとを備える。第二P1シンボル生成部200Aは、第二P1シンボルを生成して出力するものであり、第1の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル生成部200と第二P1シンボルのガードインターバルの付加の仕方が異なる。以下、第二P1シンボル復調部200Aについて説明する。
図21は図20の第二P1シンボル生成部200Aの構成を示すブロック図である。第二P1シンボル生成部200Aは、第二P1シンボル生成部200のガードインターバル付加部207をガードインターバル付加部207Aに置き換えた構成をしている。
但し、第二P1シンボルをp12ndA(t’)で表し、有効シンボルをp12ndA(t’)で表し、周波数シフトシフト量をfSHとし、IFFT後の1サンプル時間をTとしている。t’は、時間であり、第二P1シンボルの開始時間を0としている。なお、DVB-T2伝送方式において、帯域幅8MHzの場合、T=7/64μsとなり、有効シンボル長は1024T=112μsとなる。なお、図6及び図22に示すように、第二P1シンボルの前後のガードインターバルの長さを第一P1シンボルのそれらと入れ替えたフォーマット(前ガードインターバルがTb、後ガードインターバルがTc)とするが、これに限られない。
本実施の形態のOFDM受信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル復調部26と異なるP1シンボル復調部26Aを備え、以下、P1シンボル復調部26Aについて説明する。
図23は、第2の実施の形態におけるOFDM受信装置のP1シンボル復調部26Aの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル復調部26Aは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを復調する第一P1シンボル復調部300と第二P1シンボル復調部400Aとを備える。第二P1シンボル復調部400Aは第二P1シンボルを復調するものであり、第1の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル復調部400と構成が異なる。以下、第二P1シンボル復調部400Aについて説明する。
図24は図23の第二P1シンボル復調部400Aの構成を示すブロック図であり、第二P1シンボル復調部400Aは、P1位置検出部401AとFFT部402とP1デコード部403とを備える。
図28(a)~(c)は、第一P1シンボル復調部300のP1位置検出部301(図13参照)における第二P1シンボルの前側部分の相関の様子を示す模式図である。
上述した第2の実施の形態によれば、送信側では、前側ガードインターバル区間の信号及び後ろ側ガードインターバル区間の信号の生成において、第一P1シンボルでは前側ガードインターバル長をTc、後ろ側ガードインターバル長をTbとする(図6参照)。一方、第二P1シンボルでは前側ガードインターバル長をTb、後ろ側ガードインターバル長をTcとしている(図22参照)。このように、第一P1シンボルと第二P1シンボルとで互いに異なる長さのガードインターバルを利用して第一P1シンボル及び第二P1シンボルを構成することで、受信側では、第一P1シンボルと第二P1シンボルとが遅延波かどうか容易に見分けがつき、安定した受信が可能となる。また、FEF区間を用いて2つのP1シンボル(第一P1シンボル、第二P1シンボル)を送信する場合、第一P1シンボルがFEF区間の先頭シンボルとなり、第一P1シンボル復調用の復調部のみを有するDVB-T2受信機は、第二P1シンボルの影響を受けることは無く、既存のDVB-T2受信機との親和性を保つことができる。
以下、本発明の第3の実施の形態のOFDM送信装置およびOFDM受信装置について、図面を参照して説明する。なお、本実施の形態において、第1及び第2の実施の形態の構成要素と実質的に同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付し、その説明が適用できるため本実施の形態ではその説明を省略し、或いは、簡単な記載に留める。
本実施の形態のOFDM送信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル生成部11と異なるP1シンボル生成部11Bを備え、以下、P1シンボル生成部11Bについて説明する。
図30は、第3の実施の形態におけるOFDM送信装置のP1シンボル生成部11Bの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル生成部11Bは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを生成する第一P1シンボル生成部100と第二P1シンボル生成部200Bとを備える。第二P1シンボル生成部200Bは、第二P1シンボルを生成して出力するものであり、第1及び第2の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル生成部200,200Aと第二P1シンボルのガードインターバルの付加の仕方が異なる。以下、第二P1シンボル復調部200Bについて説明する。
図31は図30の第二P1シンボル生成部200Bの構成を示すブロック図である。第二P1シンボル生成部200Bは、第二P1シンボル生成部200のガードインターバル付加部207をガードインターバル付加部207Bに置き換えた構成をしている。
本実施の形態のOFDM受信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル復調部26と異なるP1シンボル復調部26Bを備え、以下、P1シンボル復調部26Bについて説明する。
図33は、第3の実施の形態におけるOFDM受信装置のP1シンボル復調部26Bの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル復調部26Bは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを復調する第一P1シンボル復調部300と第二P1シンボル復調部400Bとを備える。第二P1シンボル復調部400Bは第二P1シンボルを復調するものであり、第1及び第2の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル復調部400,400Aと構成が異なる。以下、第二P1シンボル復調部400Bについて説明する。
図34は図33の第二P1シンボル復調部400Bの構成を示すブロック図であり、第二P1シンボル復調部400Bは、P1位置検出部401BとFFT部402とP1デコード部403とを備える。
上述した第3の実施の形態によれば、第1の実施の形態及び第2の実施の形態と同様の効果が得られる。なお、この場合には、例えば、第一P1シンボル復調部300のP1位置検出部301において、第二P1シンボルに対する処理時に、乗算器311から区間積分演算器315までの相関演算及び区間積分演算において誤って後ろ側ガードインターバルでピークが生じ、乗算器311、遅延器316から区間積分演算器319までの相関演算及び区間積分演算において誤って前側ガードインターバルでピークが生じるが、乗算器321の乗算処理によってピークが無くなるので、第二P1シンボルの位置を誤って第一P1シンボルの位置と検出してしまうことはない。同様に、第二P1シンボル復調部400bのP1位置検出部401bにおいて、第一P1シンボルの位置を誤って第二P1シンボルの位置と検出してしまうことはない。
以下、本発明の第4の実施の形態のOFDM送信装置およびOFDM受信装置について、図面を参照して説明する。なお、本実施の形態において、第1から第3の実施の形態の構成要素と実質的に同じ構成要素には同じ符号を付し、その説明が適用できるため本実施の形態ではその説明を省略し、或いは、簡単な記載に留める。
本実施の形態のOFDM送信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル生成部11と異なるP1シンボル生成部11Cを備え、以下、P1シンボル生成部11Cについて説明する。
図36は、第4の実施の形態におけるOFDM送信装置のP1シンボル生成部11Cの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル生成部11Cは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを生成する第一P1シンボル生成部100と第二P1シンボル生成部200Cとを備える。第二P1シンボル生成部200Cは、第二P1シンボルを生成して出力するものであり、第1から第3の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル生成部200,200A,200Bが用いるサブキャリア配置(Activeキャリア及びNullキャリアの配置)と異なるサブキャリア配置を用いる。以下、第二P1シンボル生成部200Cについて説明する。
図37は、図36の第二P1シンボル生成部200Cの構成を示すブロック図である。第二P1シンボル生成部200Cは、第二P1シンボル生成部200のキャリア配置系列生成部201をキャリア配置系列生成部201Cに置き換えた構成をしている。
本実施の形態のOFDM受信装置は、第1の実施の形態のP1シンボル復調部26と異なるP1シンボル復調部26Cを備え、以下、P1シンボル復調部26Cについて説明する。
図40は、第4の実施の形態におけるOFDM受信装置のP1復調部26Cの構成を示すブロック図であり、P1シンボル復調部26Cは、第1の実施の形態で説明した処理を実施して第一P1シンボルを復調する第一P1シンボル復調部300と第二P1シンボル復調部400Cとを備える。第二P1シンボル復調部400Cは第二P1シンボルを復調するものであり、第1から第3の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル復調部400,400A,400Bと構成が異なる。以下、第二P1シンボル復調部400Cについて説明する。
図41は図40の第二P1シンボル復調部400Cの構成を示すブロック図である。第二P1シンボル復調部400Cは、第1の実施の形態の第二P1シンボル復調部400のP1デコード部403をP1デコード部403Cに置き換えた構成をしている。
上述したOFDM送信装置およびOFDM受信装置では、第一P1シンボルでのActiveキャリアの配置箇所と第二P1シンボルでのActiveキャリアの配置箇所とを変えているため(第一P1シンボルのActiveキャリアの一部(全部でない)と第二P1シンボルのActiveキャリアの一部(全部でない)とが同じサブキャリアに配置される場合もある)、図42に示すように、遅延環境における互いの干渉成分を少なくすることができる。第一P1シンボルと第二P1シンボルとのキャリア配置系列を直交にすれば、遅延波によるP1シンボルの干渉の影響を受けるキャリアはほぼ半数とすることができ、第一P1シンボルのNullキャリア部分のみを第二P1シンボルのActiveキャリアにするという配置にすれば、影響を受けるキャリアはほとんどないということになり、遅延環境においても安定した受信を可能とすることができる。また、FEF区間を用いて送信する場合、第一P1シンボルがFEF区間の先頭シンボルとなり、第二P1シンボルのキャリア配置が第一P1シンボルと異なるため、DVB-T2受信機が第一P1シンボルと識別が付き易くなり、第二P1シンボルによって受信不可になることを抑制することができる。
