申请人在研究过程中注意到:
信道互易性对多应用在时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)模式下的大规模天线系统有重要作用,虽然TDD模式下上下行搭载到同一频率中,一般认为其物理信道增益相同,但是在实际电路中,信道的发射和接收过程都需要经过射频链路模块,每根天线接收和发送的射频链路是由不同的电路来分别完成,发射和接收电路的特性很难做到完全一致。另外,由于发射和接收电路所处的环境温度与湿度等特性不同,两套电路的特性不能做到完全 相同,使得信道互易性受损。因此,补偿信道互易性损失的天线校准技术对DMIMO系统尤为重要。
考虑到射频单元端射频(Radio Frequency,RF)链路失配对系统性能影响最大且利用用户反馈的校准方案开销极大,DMIMO系统下射频单元间的天线校准通常采用射频单元间发送接收校准序列的方法完成。
相关技术中全局天线校准的主流方案是固定参考射频单元,向待校准天线发送校准序列,该方案会在DMIMO射频单元阵列位置分散的场景下造成极高的校准误差。
另外为分布式天线阵列设计的采用非固定参考射频单元的相邻校准方案和分组校准方案能够降低每次校准的误差,但随节点数目的增加,其累积误差以及时间复杂度都会增大。
由于DMIMO系统下存在大规模协作,站点数量增加,对天线校准周期和天线校准性能都提出了更高的要求。因此,针对相关技术方案中存在时间复杂度过高,校准周期过长的问题,且设计天线校准方案时同时需要考虑分布式天线阵列的校准误差,本公开实施例中提出考虑校准误差的天线校准时频资源调度方案,其中,射频单元分簇并且逐级校准,从而达到全局校准的目的,避免由存在校准关系的射频单元阵列位置分散造成校准误差过大;为了保证级间接收校准序列的准确性,根据级间干扰程度对射频单元进行时域阶段的划分,阶段内隔级射频单元同时发送校准序列以尽可能缩短校准周期,且对同时发送校准序列的射频单元进行频域划分以避免干扰。
下面结合附图对本公开的具体实施方式进行说明。
在说明过程中,将会分别涉及发送校准序列的射频单元以及接收校准序列的射频单元,然后还将给出二者配合实施的实例以更好地理解本公开实施例中给出的方案的实施。这样的说明方式并不意味着二者必须配合实施、或者必须单独实施,实际上,当发送校准序列的射频单元以及接收校准序列的射频单元分开实施时,其也各自解决自身一侧的问题,而二者结合使用时,会获得更好的技术效果。

下面从射频单元的角度进行说明。
图2为校准序列发送方法实施流程示意图,如图所示,可以包括:
步骤201、射频单元确定需发送的校准序列,以及接收校准序列的射频单元,其中,各射频单元是按DMIMO组网技术组成的,各射频单元分成至少两级,同级射频单元以上一级射频单元为中心参考节点分簇,接收校准序列的射频单元是中心参考节点,若干个发送校准序列的射频单元与一个接收校准序列的射频单元组成一个簇;
步骤202、射频单元向接收校准序列的射频单元发送校准序列。
可以将本公开实施例中提出的DMIMO下天线校准的时频资源调度方案包含两个阶段分别如下,但是这个分段是便于理解而进行的说明,并不意味着本公开实施例提供的技术方案必须分为两段或者有别的含义:
1、将射频单元按照一定规则分级/分簇:
实施中,各射频单元在分级时,是按照地理位置进行分级的。
具体的,为避免参考射频单元与校准射频单元信噪比差异过大,可以将各射频单元按照地理位置分级,同级射频单元以上一级射频单元为中心参考节点分簇。
2、对射频单元间发送校准序列进行时频资源调度:
实施中,同一分簇的射频单元向接收校准序列的射频单元发送校准序列时使用的频域资源和/时间资源相同,与其他分簇和/或其他分级的射频单元不同。
具体的,射频单元发送接收校准序列时进行级间与簇间时频域调度,包 括隔级射频单元同时向连接节点发送校准序列以尽可能减小时间复杂度,为避免向同一节点发送序列时造成干扰对该节点连接的上一级参考节点和同级簇内节点校准序列的发送进行频域划分。另外,为保证级间校准的精确度,根据级间发送接收校准序列的干扰程度将系统内射频单元进行时域划分,从而重新发送接收校准序列。
图3为确定校准因子的实施流程示意图,如图所示,可以包括:
步骤301:将协作范围内所有射频单元按一定规则分级,并采用同级射频单元以上一级射频单元作为中心节点的策略进行分簇。
具体地,确定协作范围内的中心参考节点,也称第1级节点,其所在的簇可称作第1级簇,第1级簇内的射频单元称为第2级节点,进而以第2级节点为中心,射频单元在该簇内且在第1级簇外的节点称为第3级节点,依次类推对射频单元进行划分,簇大小的预设值可根据可利用频域资源调整。
步骤302:根据射频单元划分情况,进行级间与簇间的时频域调度,包括隔级射频单元在相同时隙不同频域接收发送校准序列;
步骤303:根据级间干扰程度确定需要在下一个时域阶段重新进行发送接收校准序列的级间射频单元范围,主要考虑级别相近的射频单元的干扰;
步骤304:被列入下一个时域阶段内各级射频单元将利用步骤202与步骤203重新进行天线校准序列的发送与接收;
步骤305:在协作范围内射频单元的发送与接收校准序列按时频域资源的调度方法完成后,进行校准因子的计算,根据射频单元级别确定最终校准因子。
由上述实施可以看出,在分布式大规模天线阵列中应用相关技术中的集中式天线校准技术方案中,会导致校准误差过大,同时相关技术中的分布式天线校准技术方案中,采取相邻天线校准或分组校准均会在射频单元增多的场景中时间复杂度过高,本公开实施例中提供的校准序列发送方案,考虑校准误差的天线校准时频资源调度,射频单元分簇并且逐级进行全局校准的流程能够避免存在校准关系的射频单元阵列由位置分散造成校准误差过大,时域阶段内隔级射频单元同时发送校准序列能够尽可能缩短校准周期,且对同时发送校准序列的射频单元进行频域划分用来避免干扰,因此能够在降低校 准误差的基础上尽可能多的复用时域资源,在多节点协作的场景下实现天线校准高效调度。
下面以实例进行说明。
为了满足下一代移动通信系统特别是5G网络对高性能的严格要求,随着技术的发展,分布式大规模多输入多输出(DMIMO)技术以其在提升覆盖范围、增强边缘用户速率以及消除室内盲区等方面的优势在5G的众多备选关键技术中脱颖而出,图4为DMIMO系统场景示意图,如图4所示场景。在实际场景中,补偿信道互易性损失的天线校准技术对多应用于TDD模式下的DMIMO系统尤为重要。为了在降低校准误差的同时实现天线校准的高效调度,下面将以实例进行说明。
1、系统将协作范围内所有射频单元按一定规则分级,并采用同级射频单元以上一级射频单元作为中心节点的策略进行分簇。
实施中,最高一级的射频单元是各分簇内中包含射频单元数量最高的分簇中的射频单元。具体的,进行中心节点选取的标准还可以包括:以射频单元分布区域的中心为圆心,某阈值为半径作簇,以簇内射频单元为中心作簇,各簇包含射频单元数量较高者,将作为协作范围内的第1级节点。
例中,同一基带处理单元下的多个射频单元分布式的放置在一定区域内,以该区域的中心为圆心,某预设值为半径作簇,簇内包含的射频单元作为中心节点的候选节点,再以候选节点为圆心,相同预设值为半径作簇,簇内包含射频单元数量较多的将成为协作范围内的中心参考节点,也称第1级节点,其所在的簇可称作第1级簇。位于第1级簇的射频单元与中心参考节点距离最近,校准误差最低,因此该类型射频单元数量越多,该系统内总误差越小,另外保证中心节点基本位于协作区域的中心在之后的流程中有利于缩短整个系统的校准周期。
在第1级节点和第1级簇确定之后,第1级簇内的射频单元称为第2级节点,进而以第2级节点为中心,同样预设值为半径作簇,射频单元在该簇内且在第1级簇外的节点称为第3级节点,依次类推,将协作范围内的射频单元进行分成n级。
实施中,分簇的簇半径的预设值是根据频域资源数量进行调整的。具体 的,簇半径的预设值可依据可利用频域资源数量进行调整。
2、根据射频单元划分情况,隔级在相同时隙收发校准序列,图5为时域阶段内校准序列收发示意图,如图5所示,第1个时隙,第1级节点和第3级节点发送校准序列,第2级节点和第4级节点接收校准序列;第2个时隙,则第1级节点和第3级节点接收校准序列,第2级节点和第4级节点发送校准序列,反之相同,即在两个时隙内完成该4级校准序列的接收与发送。由于在第k级节点和第k+2级节点向第k+1级节点发送校准序列时会造成相互的干扰,因此向同一第k+1级节点发送校准序列的第k级节点和第k+2级节点将以不同的频域进行校准序列的发送。
3、根据级间发送接收校准序列的干扰程度确定分簇的簇半径。
具体的,可以根据级间发送接收校准序列的干扰程度确定重新进行发送接收校准序列的射频单元范围,从而对系统内射频单元进行时域阶段的划分。
例中,通过测量射频单元间的信道的信干噪比确定级间干扰程度。第k级节点将利用第k-1级节点和第k+1级节点发送的校准序列作为有用信号进行天线校准,但同时也将收到来自第k-3级节点或第k+3级节点的干扰。第k-1级节点和第k+1级节点发送校准序列在不同的频域,当第k-3级节点或第k+3级节点以这两个频域发送校准序列,则会造成一定程度的干扰。若在第k级节点接收有用信号的频域上,该有用信号的信干噪比高于预设值,则说明第k-3级节点或第k+3级节点未对第k级节点所接收信号造成干扰,即本时域阶段内校准结果可作为有用信号所在簇的最终校准结果,反之,当有用信号的信干噪比高于预设值,即说明第k-3级节点或第k+3级节点能够对第k级节点接收信号造成干扰,则令该有用信号所在簇在下一个时域阶段重新进行天线校准,图6为时域阶段划分示意图,如图6所示,在第一时域阶段第5级节点与第3级节点以同一频域发送校准序列,而第6级节点接收到第5级节点信号的信干噪比低于预设值,则第5级簇在第二个时域阶段重新进行天线校准。
4、被列入下一个时域阶段内各级射频单元将利用1与2的时频域调度方案重新进行天线校准序列的发送。
5、在协作范围内射频单元的发送与接收校准序列完成后,进行校准因子 的计算。该射频单元的校准因子与其级别有关,即该射频单元的校准因子为簇内校准因子与该簇中心节点在上一级簇校准得到因子的乘积。
基于同一公开构思,本公开实施例中还提供了一种射频单元、校准序列发送装置、计算机可读存储介质,由于这些设备解决问题的原理与校准序列发送方法相似,因此这些设备的实施可以参见方法的实施,重复之处不再赘述。
在实施本公开实施例提供的技术方案时,可以按如下方式实施。
