Description

无线通信中确定信噪比的方法和装置 技术领域
本发明涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种无线通信中确定信噪比的方法和装置。
背景技术
为了提高无线通信技术的发展,在第3代合作伙伴计(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)中长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)项目被建立。其中,多输入多输出(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output,MIMO)和正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex,OFDM)是LTE项目中最关键的两个技术。在LTE实际应用场景中,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)可能受到邻区的干扰,该干扰将严重影响UE解调数据的性能。此外,在MU-MIMO(多用户MIMO)系统中,可通过特定的调度机制选择符合规定的UE并归为一组,一组中的多个UE的天线就构成了虚拟的多天线阵列。基站可在相同的时频资源上与该组内多个UE收发数据,这组UE就称为配对UE,配对UE彼此之间也可能存在干扰。以图1为例,服务基站11可以为一个eNodeB,并为服务小区110中的多个UE121,UE 122和UE 123提供服务。其中UE121靠近小区110的边缘,会受到其他基站13形成的小区130的干扰,此种情形也叫小区间干扰,即其他基站13与UE121间的通信链路131是服务基站11与UE121间的通信链路111的干扰链路。UE122和UE 123为配对UE,服务基站11对UE122和UE 123作MU-MIMO传输时,UE122和UE 123之间也可能存在干扰,即UE122与服务基站11间的通信链路112和UE123与服务基站11间的通信链路113互相干扰。一个链路也可被视为是一个信道。
LTE项目在Release 11(版本11)阶段定义了抑制干扰的标准接收机,例如干扰抑制合并(Interference Rejection Combining,IRC)接收机。然而,IRC抑制小区间干扰的能力有限,也不能很好抑制UE间干扰。因此,LTE在Release  12阶段定义了能力更强的接收机,如符号级干扰消除(Symbol Level Interference Cancellation,SLIC)接收机和最大似然(Maximum Likelihood,ML)接收机,以达到更好的干扰抑制效果。
在LTE系统中,服务基站11可根据任意UE,如UE121上报的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI)调度合适的无线资源、调制编码方案(Modulation Coding Scheme,MCS)、预编码(Precoding Matrix Indicator,PMI)和秩(Rank Index,RI)给UE121,保证UE121的正常通信。UE121可依据最小均方误差(Minimum Mean Square Error,MMSE)准则计算CSI,这需要首先计算该UE121的接收信噪比,即有效信号相对于干扰的比值,并基于该信噪比确定CSI,以及向基站11反馈该CSI。但是在计算信噪比的过程中UE121没有考虑小区间干扰或UE间干扰问题,导致信得到的噪比或CSI不准确。特别是当在UE121中使用SLIC接收机或者ML接收机时,通过MMSE计算得到的信噪比经常无法反映该UE真实的信道状态,从而进一步得到不准确的CSI。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
在本发明实施例中,用户设备,即UE也叫无线终端或用户终端,可以享有服务站点的无线接入服务。所述服务站点通常是一个基站,如LTE中的eNodeB或NodeB,或者也可以是基站控制器等用于将用户设备接入移动通信网络的接入点。所述服务站点在为用户设备提供接入服务时,可形成一个或多个小区,一个小区可以在地理上覆盖一定范围并占据频域上的一段载波或频带。具体地,用户设备与所述服务站点可通过运行无线通信协议实现通信过程,所述无线通信协议包括但不限于LTE、全球移动通信(Global System for Mobile,GSM)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS)、全球微波互联接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)、时分-同步码分多址(Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access TDS-CDMA)或码分多址2000(Code Division Multiple Access 2000,CDMA2000)等各类蜂窝无线通信协议。在本发明实施例中,LTE是更常见的应用场景。
当用户设备与服务站点通信时,为了向服务站点反馈信道状态信息以便于基于信道状态信息调度资源和分配调制编码方案和预编码方案,用户设备首先要准确估计用户设备的接收信号的信噪比,有时该信噪比也可以是信干噪比(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio,SINR)。本发明实施例因此提出了一种比常规技术更优的在无线通信中确定信噪比的方法。
图2是所述方法的一个实施例的简要示意图,所述方法可由所述用户设备30执行,可对传统的信噪比进行修正。请参见图3,用户设备30可包括存储器31和处理器32。存储器31与处理器32可通过一个连接线或电路接口33相耦合。用户设备30中的处理器32可被用于执行本实施例确定信噪比的方法。具体地,在S21中,用户设备30或处理器32可基于最小均方误差准则确定无线通信中该用户设备30的接收信号的有效信噪比。最小均方误差准则是一种无线通信中用于计算有效信噪比的常规技术,其实现原理在现有诸多文献中已 有介绍,本实施例对此不作详细描述。
在S22中,用户设备30获取用于修正所述有效信噪比的至少一个参数。所述至少一个参数可以是一组参数,即多个参数,其用于对所述有效信噪比进行修正,得到更准确的信噪比。具体地,所述至少一个参数可以是如下一个或两个的组合:指示所述当前用户设备30所用的接收机算法的参数、和至少一个干扰信号的参数。所述接收机算法可以为符号级干扰消除算法或最大似然算法,当然也不排除其他可用的接收机算法,所用的算法用来在接收信号的解调中实现好的干扰抑制。本实施例中将指示接收机算法的参数作为一个参考因素来修正信噪比,说明采用不同接收机算法的用户设备30对干扰的抑制能力不同,通过所述修正可提高用户设备30得到的信噪比的准确度。
如图3所示,优选地,至少一个参数可以存储在用户设备30中的一个存储器31中。存储器31可以是随机存取存储器(Random Access Memory,RAM)、只读存储器(Read-Only Memory,ROM)、快速(Flash)存储器等,也可以是缓存(Buffer)、FIFO(First In First Out,先入先出队列)或寄存器等用于暂时或临时存储的元件,对存储器31的类型本实施例不做限制。在一个示例中,存储器31可以是一个寄存器。处理器32在进行修正处理时可具体从所述存储器31中获取所述至少一个参数。用户设备30在工作中可实时或每间隔一定时间后根据用户设备30的工作状态更新所述存储器31。例如,处理器32可获知用户设备30当前正在使用的接收机算法并将指示该算法的参数写入存储器31以便后续进行修正处理时使用。此外,用户设备30可从其服务基站或其他网络通信节点接收至少一个干扰信号的参数并写入存储器31以便后续进行修正处理时使用。
在一个实现方式中,干扰信号的参数可以包括该干扰信号的传输模式、所述干扰信号的秩、所述干扰信号的数据与导频功率比或所述干扰信号的调制方案。用户设备30将干扰信号的参数作为一个参考因素来修正信噪比,说明干 扰信号采用的传输模式、秩或调制方案不同的时候对用户设备30造成的干扰也不同,通过采用所述修正可提高用户设备30计算的信噪比准确度。如背景技术所述,用户设备30的干扰信号可以有多个,且每个干扰信号的成因可以不同。一个干扰信号可以是用户设备30的当前服务基站的服务小区内与用户设备30配对的用户设备引起的,或者是邻居基站的邻居小区引起的,本实施例对干扰信号的成因不作具体限制。
在上述实现方式中,该干扰信号的传输模式可以是来自干扰小区的干扰信号的MIMO传输模式,可包括发射分集、开环空分复用、闭环空分复用或波束成形等MIMO传输方式。所述干扰信号的调制方案可以包括16QAM(Quadrature Amplitude Modulation,正交幅度调制),64QAM或QPSK(Quadrature Phase Shift Keying,正交相移键控)等对干扰信号的调制方式。所述干扰信号的数据与导频功率比反映了干扰信号中的数据信号功率与导频功率的比值,其中导频也可以叫做参考信号,可被用于做信道估计或测量。关于干扰信号的传输模式、所述干扰信号的秩、或所述干扰信号的调制方案这些参数可以是用户设备基于现有的干扰估计方案对干扰信号进行估计得到。也就是说在S22之前,用户设备30或其处理器32可通过估计干扰信号或干扰小区得到所述至少一个干扰信号的参数。当然,本实施例不排除用户设备30获取至少一个干扰信号的参数的其他方式,如用户设备30可从其他通信节点,比如基站或其他用户设备处得到这些参数。例如,用户设备30可具体通过服务基站的物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)接收至少一个干扰信号的参数。在得到这些参数后,用户设备30或其处理器32可将所述至少一个干扰信号的参数写入存储器31,以便用户设备30中处理器32在后续的步骤S22中读取存储器31中的参数。
在S23中,用户设备30基于用于修正所述有效信噪比的映射关系,确定与所述至少一个参数和所述有效信噪比所对应的修正的信噪比。具体地,处理 器32可使用基于映射公式计算的方式或查映射表的方式来得到修正的信噪比。
在一种实现方式中,所述用于修正所述有效信噪比的映射关系为映射公式,具体可以是SNR=f(SNRno,{Φ})。其中,SNR是得到的修正的信噪比,SNRno是所述有效信噪比,{Φ}是参数集合,包括所述至少一个参数。f()是映射函数,表示了所述映射关系。处理器32可基于映射公式SNR=f(SNRno,{Φ})将SNRno和{Φ}作为输入变量计算得到SNR。映射函数f()可以是预先设定的,其可以保存在存储器31中或另一个存储器中。也就是说f()可以是通过离线的方式获取的,在这种方式下,当用户设备确定信噪比之前,f()的表达式已经预存储在用户设备30中,实现复杂度低。具体地,f()可以由本领域技术人员根据仿真得到。在用户设备30出厂前,该f()被以软件代码的形式作为一种参数存入存储器31中或另一个存储器中,处理器32可从存储器31中或另一个存储器中获取该f()并基于该f()做修正处理得到修正的信噪比。或者可替换地,f()也可以作为硬件电路被置入到处理器32内,即通过集成电路或其他电路生产工艺制作在处理器32中。在处理器32在进行修正处理的时候,由于处理器32已经内置有所述映射关系f(),处理器32可直接基于f()计算修正的信噪比。当至少一个参数取不同值的时候,经过f()映射,用户设备30或处理器32得到的修正的信噪比的值是不同的,从而实现根据实际接收机的参数修改并完善得到的信噪比,使得得到的信噪比准确度提高。无论f()是以软件形式预先存储在存储器31中或另一个存储器中还是作为硬件电路被内置于处理器32中,本领域技术人员可在用户设备30的开发或生产验证中通过仿真和验算得到适合的函数f()。
在另一种实现方式中,f()的表达式可以用包括多个离散数值的查找表或者说映射表来代替。该映射表用于指示与所述至少一个参数和所述有效信噪比所对应的修正的信噪比,实现代替f()来表明本实施例之前提到的映射关系。处 理器32用于通过将一个或多个参数作为输入查找该映射表得到修正的信噪比。该映射表可以以软件代码形式存储于存储器31中或另一个存储器中,由处理器32从存储器31中读取。或者可替换地,该映射表可以逻辑电路的形式嵌入在处理器32内。在处理器32在进行修正处理的时候,由于处理器32已经内置有所述映射表,处理器32可直接基于反映该映射表的逻辑电路计算修正的信噪比。
图5为本发明实施例提供的一种映射表1的示意图。在该表1中,指示接收机算法的参数被作为表1的输入1,其包括一系列离散值,如算法1,算法2等。另一输入2为有效信噪比,包括多个取值,分别表示为有效信噪比1,有效信噪比2等。此时的映射表1相当于是一个二维查找表,即通过两个输入映射一个修正结果。处理器32通过将获取的接收机算法的参数和有效信噪比作为2个输入,在表2中查找到对应的修正结果作为修正的信噪比。例如,算法1和有效信噪比1对应修正结果1,而算法2,有效信噪比2对应修正结果x+1。
随着引入的用于修正的参数增加,映射表的输入数量也在增加。在图6显示的映射表2中,除了将有效信噪比和指示接收机算法的参数作为2个输入外,还可以进一步引入三个输入,即干扰信号的传输模式、所述干扰信号的秩、或所述干扰信号的调制方案。这样表2可以认为是一个五维的查找表,包括五个输入,即有效信噪比和参数集合{Φ}中的4个参数,这4个参数分别为接收机算法的参数、干扰信号的传输模式、所述干扰信号的秩、与所述干扰信号的调制方案。处理器32通过该5个输入在查找表2中找到对应的修正结果作为修正的信噪比。可以理解,可以在用户设备30内置多个映射表,多个映射表可以以软件代码的形式存储在存储器31中或另一个存储器中,或者以逻辑电路的形式直接嵌入在处理器32中,用户设备30或处理器32可以决定在多个映射表中使用哪个映射表来确定修正的信噪比。每个映射表的输入可以是两个 或更多,输入的数量具体取决于该映射表所涉及的参数集合{Φ}中包括哪些参数。这些参数除了包括表2中列举的1个或多个参数外,也可以进一步包括其他影响干扰特性的参数,本实施例对此不做限定。所使用的参数的数量越多,表明在修正过程中考虑了更多的因素,此时修正得到的信噪比更加准确。因此随着映射表的输入数量的增多,修正效果会提升。
对于用户设备30而言,干扰信号的数量是1个还是多个取决于用户设备30的实际的使用场景或用户设备30周边的无线网络部署情况。当干扰信号的数量为多个时,可依次针对每个干扰信号修正有效信噪比。具体在该步骤23中,用户设备30或者处理器32可有处理多个干扰信号的能力。具体来说,用户设备30首先计算修正前的有效信噪比,然后遍历所有可能的干扰信号。如果需要针对第i个干扰信号做修正处理,则利用之前实施例中所述的映射表或映射公式计算第i个修正的信噪比。并将这第i个修正的信噪比做为针对下一个,即第i+1干扰信号,进行修正时的输入。其中i为大于等于1且小于等于N的整数,且i的初始值为1。每次迭代后i的值加1,直到i等于N。N则为干扰信号的数量,为大于等于2的整数。也就是说,处理器32可采用迭代方式针对每个干扰信号的参数计算有效信噪比,以提升系统性能。
上述方法的具体迭代过程可以如图7所示。在S71中,处理器32基于所述映射关系进行针对第i个干扰信号修正有效信噪比,即处理器32基于所述映射表或映射公式确定与指示所述当前用户设备所用的接收机算法的参数、N个干扰信号的参数中第i个干扰信号的参数和所述有效信噪比所对应的修正的信噪比。在S72中,判断i是否等于N。如果i等于N则在S73中输出该修正的信噪比作为最终的修正结果。如果i小于N则执行S74,利用所述修正的信噪比替换所述有效信噪比,将i的值加1,并返回步骤S71。通过针对多个干扰信号进行所述修正,本实施例可以进一步提高计算得到的信噪比的准确性。
可选地,该确定信噪比的方法可进一步包括:在S24中,用户设备30或 处理器32可基于计算得到的所述修正的信噪比确定信道状态信息,并上报所述信道状态信息至所述当前用户设备30的服务站点。通过在该确定信噪比的方法中进一步增加信道状态信息上报,即信道反馈的步骤,本实施例等效于是提供了一种信道状态信息上报或信道反馈方法。所述处理器32此时可进一步被划分为用于确定信道状态信息的处理单元和用于上报所述信道状态信息的射频装置(图3中未示出)。所述射频装置可与处理单元位于同一芯片内或分别位于不同的芯片内。其中,本实施例的所述信道状态信息可以包括秩索引(Rank Index,RI)、预编码矩阵指示(Pre-coder Matrix Indicator,PMI)或信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator,CQI)中的至少一个。所述CQI可进一步包括宽带CQI或窄带CQI,所述PMI也可进一步包括宽带PMI或窄带PMI,本实施例对此不作限制。由于信道状态信息是基于经过修正的信噪比得到的,因此更能够准确的反映用户设备30在无线通信中使用的信道的实际状态。服务基站基于用户设备30反馈的信道状态信息进行调度也更加准确,提高用户设备30的数据吞吐量,从而提高无线通信系统整体性能。
在图3所示的实施例中处理器32具体可以是一个通信处理器、基带和射频处理器、通用处理单元或无线调制解调器,可用于运行LTE、UMTS或GSM等任一无线通信协议。该处理器32可以在必要的驱动软件的驱动下工作。所述驱动软件可以存储在存储器31内或其他存储单元中。所述驱动软件可以是运行上述无线通信协议的必要协议软件。处理器32可以包括一个或多个芯片,或者处理器32可通过集成电路或其他形式的电路,如印制电路,或二者结合实现。所述集成电路是通过集成电路制程制作在半导体衬底上的电路形式,可包括数字电路或模拟电路中的至少一种。一个芯片则是包括了大量集成电路和外围封装的元件。
下面提供一种本实施例的映射关系的方法示例。生成本领域技术人员可在用户设备30的开发或生产验证中通过如图4所示的方式获得本实施例提到的 映射关系。本领域技术人员可以通过计算机仿真环境构建一个传统接收机仿真程序401和一个改进的接收机仿真程序402。传统接收机仿真程序401用于仿真现有技术中的接收机中信噪比计算方法,改进的接收机仿真程序用于仿真本发明实施例提供的方法。可为两套程序401和402设定一组相同的如之前实施例所述的参数{Φ}。将传统接收机仿真程序401的初始信噪比,即之前实施例所述的SNRno,设定为一个值,使得在这个信噪比值之下该传统接收机仿真程序401的接收准确率,如误帧率达到预设值,如10%。针对改进的接收机仿真程序402,遍历所有可能的SNR值并将这些值依次配置给改进的接收机仿真程序402,并针对每个SNR值计算该改进的接收机仿真程序402接收准确率,如误帧率。通过遍历和反复迭代,直到改进的接收机仿真程序402的接收准确率达到所述预设值,此时的输入改进的接收机仿真程序402的SNR值就是在该组参数{Φ}下SNRno的修正值。也就是说,针对不同组参数{Φ},通过以上方式可得到多个离散SNRno的值与多个离散SNR值之间的对应关系,从而形成之前所述的映射表。如之前所述,该反映多个离散值之间对应关系的映射表也可以被转化为f()函数,即本领域技术人员可通过函数拟合方法选定合适的f()函数来模拟实际的多个离散值间对应关系。对于如何进行这种拟合,在数学和计算机领域已经有比较普遍的应用,此处不作具体描述。
图8为本发明实施例提供的一种无线通信中确定信噪比的装置80的示意图,其可位于用户设备内部,用于实现对有效信噪比的修正。该装置80可包括:有效信噪比确定单元81,用于基于最小均方误差准则确定无线通信中当前用户设备的接收信号的有效信噪比;参数确定单元82,用于获取用于修正所述有效信噪比的至少一个参数;修正单元83,用于基于用于修正所述有效信噪比的映射关系,确定与所述至少一个参数和所述有效信噪比所对应的修正的信噪比。可选地,该装置80可进一步包括:信道状态信息上报单元84,用于基于所述修正的信噪比确定信道状态信息,并上报所述信道状态信息至所述 当前用户设备的服务站点。这些单元中的每个单元所执行的具体对应步骤可参照之前的方法实施例的描述,此处不作赘述。
本领域普通技术人员可以理解实现上述实施例方法中的全部或部分流程,是可以通过计算机程序来指令相关的硬件,如计算机处理器来完成,所述计算机程序可存储于一计算机可读取存储介质中,该程序在执行时,可包括如上述方法的实施例的流程。其中,所述计算机可读取存储介质可为磁碟、光盘、ROM或RAM等。
