背景技术
大尺度(Massive)MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output,多输入多输出)成为下一代移动通信的一个研究热点。大尺度MIMO中,多个天线通过波束赋型,形成指向一个特定方向的波束来提高通信质量。为了使波束指向正确的方向,通信双方需要知道无线信道的(部分)信道信息。传统的LTE(Long Term Evolution,长期演进)系统中,最常用的一种获取信道信息的方式是无线信号的接收端通过测量参考信号来估计信道状态信息,并把估计出的信道状态信息反馈/通知给无线信号的发送端来实现的。大尺度MIMO系统中,随着天线数量的大幅增加,这种传统的方式需要的参考信号和反馈开销会大幅增加。为了降低开销,5G系统中将充分利用上下行信道之间的信道互易性来获取(部分)信道信息,尤其是在TDD(Time-Division Duplex,时分复用)系统中。使用了信道互易性之后,如何设计上下行参考信号来优化系统的性能并降低开销,是一个需要研究的问题。
