导频传输方法和设备
交叉引用
本申请要求在2020年8月24日在中国提交的申请号为202010859876.7、发明名称为“导频传输方法和设备”的中国专利申请的优先权，该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请属于通信技术领域，具体涉及一种导频传输方法和设备。
背景技术
超奈奎斯特(Faster ThanNyquist，FTN)是通过对发送信号进行预处理(又称波形编码)，可加快码元发送速率，即增加每赫兹每秒(Hz*s)内发送的符号数量。
在复杂的电磁波传输环境中，由于存在大量的散射、反射和折射面，造成了无线信号经不同路径到达接收天线的时刻不同，即传输的多径效应。当发送信号的前后符号经过不同路径同时抵达时，或者说，当后一个符号在前一个符号的时延扩展内到达时，即产生了符号间干扰(Inter-Symbol Interference，ISI)。类似的，在频域上，由于频偏效应，多普勒效应等原因，信号所在的各个子载波会产生频率上不同程度的偏移，造成原本可能正交的子载波产生重叠，即信道间干扰(Inter-Channel Interference，ICI)。
由于波形编码和多径信道的叠加效应，导致了等效多径数量的增加，以及更加“靠近”的符号间隔和子载波间隔，使得等效的时频域重叠程度增加。这种时频域重叠程度的增加，在接收端反映为更加严重的ISI和ICI，对接收机的设计提出了挑战。
基于上述原因，一般需要通过插入一段已知信号(在单载波系统中一般 称为导频)，通过比较发送端和接收端的上述已知信号的差异来进行信道估计。传统单载波系统中，导频以周期发送的簇(burst)形式存在，一般为几十到几百个符号组成的序列。由于开销限制，发送周期不可能过于频繁，因此，当信道为时域快变时，传统方案不能很好的捕获信道的动态。
发明内容

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象，而不用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的数据在适当情况下可以互换，以便本申请的实施例能够以除了在这里图示或描述的那些以外的顺序实施，且“第一”、“第二”所区别的对象通常为一类，并不限定对象的个数，例如第一对象可以是一个，也可以是多个。此外，说明书以及权利要求中“和/或”表示所连接对象的至少其中之一，字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
值得指出的是，本申请实施例所描述的技术不限于长期演进型(Long Term Evolution，LTE)/LTE的演进(LTE-Advanced，LTE-A)系统，还可用于其他无线通信系统，诸如码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access，CDMA)、时分多址(Time Division Multiple Access，TDMA)、频分多址(Frequency Division Multiple Access，FDMA)、正交频分多址(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access，OFDMA)、单载波频分多址(Single-carrier Frequency-Division Multiple Access，SC-FDMA)和其他系统。本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”常被可互换地使用，所描述的技术既可用于以上提及的系统和无线电技术，也可用于其他系统和无线电技术。然而，以下描述出于示例目的描述了新空口(NewRadio，NR)系统，并且在以下大部分描述中使用NR术语，这些技术也可应用于NR系统应用以外的应用，如第6代(6 thGeneration，6G)通信系统。
图1示出本申请实施例可应用的一种无线通信系统的框图。无线通信系统包括终端11和网络侧设备12。其中，终端11也可以称作终端设备或者用户终端(User Equipment，UE)，终端11可以是手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)或称为笔记本电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant，PDA)、掌上电脑、上网本、超级移动个人计算机(ultra-mobile personal computer，UMPC)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device，MID)、可穿戴式设备(Wearable Device)或车载设备(vehicle user  equipment，VUE)、行人终端(pedestrian user equipment，PUE)等终端侧设备，可穿戴式设备包括：手环、耳机、眼镜等。需要说明的是，在本申请实施例并不限定终端11的具体类型。网络侧设备12可以是基站或核心网，其中，基站可被称为节点B、演进节点B、接入点、基收发机站(Base Transceiver Station，BTS)、无线电基站、无线电收发机、基本服务集(Basic Service Set，BSS)、扩展服务集(Extended Service Set，ESS)、B节点、演进型B节点(eNB)、下一代节点B(gNB)、家用B节点、家用演进型B节点、WLAN接入点、WiFi节点、发送接收点(TransmittingReceivingPoint，TRP)或所述领域中其他某个合适的术语，只要达到相同的技术效果，所述基站不限于特定技术词汇，需要说明的是，在本申请实施例中仅以NR系统中的基站为例，但是并不限定基站的具体类型。
由于无线电信号在通过无线信道过程中产生的符号间干扰(Inter-Symbol Interference，ISI)和/或信道间干扰(Inter-Channel Interference，ICI)，与发送机采用波形编码引入的ISI/ICI叠加，造成了等效的更加严重的ISI/ICI。接收机受硬件条件限制，实现的译码算法复杂度有限，当重叠程度超过一定阈值时，所需求的译码复杂度会大大增加，超过译码算法的能力，造成无法译码。此时需要通过引入导频符号，通过引入导频符号，以降低接收端译码算法复杂度，具体地，在接收端通过导频符号对无线信道进行信道估计，用信道估计的结果对收端信号进行补偿(信道均衡)，之后再进行超奈奎斯特(Faster-Than-Nyquist，FTN)信号的解调和译码。
传统单载波系统中，导频以周期发送的簇(burst)形式存在，一般为几十到几百个符号组成的序列，导频与数据分块发送。由于开销限制，导频发送周期不可能过于频繁，因此，当信道为时域快变时，传统方案不能很好的捕获信道的动态变化。
此外，FTN传输中，传统方案中为了生成无符号间干扰(InterSymbol Interference，ISI)的导频和有ISI的数据，如果用同一套基带处理，需要对 导频符号使用与数据相同阶数的成型滤波器，并且进行相应的上采样，可能会造成不必要的开销(因为导频符号不需要重叠发送，导频符号重叠发送则会造成不必要的开销，因此可以考虑采用阶数较小的成型滤波器)。或者，如果想减少导频符号的基带处理开销，就需要两个基带并行处理，或者一个基带使用更长时间串行处理，代价是在流程上或硬件实现上较为复杂。
综上所述，传统单载波系统的导频插入方案是：导频为一簇符号，与数据分块发送，无法很好地捕捉信道时变动态特性的问题。此外，按照传统方案，如果在基带中把导频符号和数据统一处理，会造成导频基带处理开销问题；如果分开处理，则代价是在流程上或硬件实现上较为复杂。
为解决上述技术问题，本申请实施例的主要思想是：在数据序列中插入导频符号，本申请实施例相对于导频为一簇符号且导频与数据分块发送的方案而言，不仅开销较小，且可以很好的捕获信道的动态。
同时，本申请实施例通过插入导频符号，以及在导频符号左右两侧的至少一侧插入的零电平符号，可以使通信设备导频符号和数据统一处理，可以简化收发端的基带信号处理流程。具体地，发送端通信设备可以对导频符号使用与数据符号相同阶数的成型滤波器，减少导频符号的基带处理开销；不需要两个基带分别对导频符号和数据符号进行并行处理，在流程上或硬件实现上较为简便。
上述提到，导频符号的左右两端(或称两侧)的至少一端还设置一个或者多个零电平的符号，该处的一个或多个零电平的符号可以称为保护符号。一个导频符号和它两侧的至少一侧的一个或多个保护符号，称为一个导频符号组。每个导频符号组中，导频符号数量可以为1，即通过单点导频进行信道估计，降低信道估计的开销。
本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法可以应用在超奈奎斯特传输中，导频 符号两端的至少一端的保护符号的数量与FTN的时域重叠系数τ按照本申请实施例后续呈现的规则计算得出，经基带处理后，可以同时得到无符号间干扰(Inter-Symbol Interference，ISI)的导频符号和有ISI的数据符号，通过上述无ISI的导频符号，可以更准确地捕获信道的动态。
下面结合附图，通过具体的实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法和设备进行详细地说明。
如图2所示，本申请的一个实施例提供一种导频传输方法200，该方法可以由通信设备执行，换言之，该方法可以由安装在通信设备的软件或硬件来执行，该方法包括如下步骤。
S202：通信设备在第一数据序列中插入导频符号，得到第二数据序列。
S204：通信设备发送第二数据序列，其中，第二数据序列经过超奈奎斯特处理。
本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法可以应用在单载波系统中。
本申请实施例中，通信设备在发送第二数据序列之前还可以对第二数据序列进行超奈奎斯特(Faster-Than-Nyquist，FTN)处理，FTN处理可以包括以下两个步骤：上采样处理；成型滤波器的匹配滤波处理。S202中提到的在第一数据序列中插入导频符号，可以是在上采样处理的步骤之前执行；也可以是在上采样处理的步骤之后且在匹配滤波处理之前。
可选地，插入导频符号得到的第二数据序列中，导频符号两端的至少一端设置有零电平符号，例如，导频符号左端设置有多个零电平符号；或导频符号右端设置有多个零电平符号；或导频符号左端设置有多个零电平符号，且导频符号的右端也设置有多个零电平符号。
在一个具体的例子中，在导频符号两端均设置有零电平符号时，导频符号两端的所述零电平符号的数量相等，或所述导频符号两端的所述零电平符 号的数量相差1。
该实施例在S204中提到通信设备发送第二数据序列，可选地，第二数据序列在第一子帧中发送，一个所述第一子帧包括保护间隔(GAP)、所述导频符号和数据段，其中，在一个所述第一子帧内，所述导频符号的数量可以为1。
可选地，所述第一子帧所在的帧结构包括多个所述第一子帧，每个所述第一子帧包括一个所述保护间隔、一个所述导频符号以及一个所述数据段。
可选地，所述帧结构还包括第二子帧，所述第二子帧用于发送同步信号簇(Sync burst)。每个所述帧结构中的第二子帧的数量为1，且第二子帧可以位于帧结构的头部。
本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法，通信设备在第一数据序列中插入导频符号得到第二数据序列，这样，第二数据序列中的数据符号和插入的导频符号交织放置。本申请实施例可以在数据帧中分布式的放置导频符号，能够解决传统方案中集中放置的导频不能很好的跟踪信道的时变特性的问题，且开销较小；同时，本申请实施例还可以根据信道状态灵活的调整导频符号的插入位置和插入密度，提高导频传输的灵活性。
可以理解，在信道的时变特性变化较快(例如时变特性满足第一条件)时，本申请实施例可以提高导频符号的插入密度，便于更好的跟踪信道的时变特性；在信道的时变特性变化较慢(例如时变特性满足第二条件)时，本申请实施例可以降低导频符号的插入密度，降低开销。
另外，本申请实施例可以调整导频符号的插入位置，例如，导频符号插入在保护间隔和数据段之间，这样，可以无需在保护间隔和导频符号之间添加零电平符号，只需在导频符号和数据段之间添加一定数量的零电平符号即可，便于降低开销(具体见实施例四)；其中，该处提到的添加一定数量的零电平符号，其目的是为了保证导频符号和数据符号之间无ISI。
可选地，实施例200中通信设备在第一数据序列中插入导频符号，得到第二数据序列之后(在S204之前)，所述方法还包括如下步骤：所述通信设备对所述第二数据序列进行上采样处理；其中，所述超奈奎斯特处理包括所述上采样处理。该实施例对应于实施例一。
上述提到的对所述第二数据序列进行上采样处理之后，所述方法还包括：在所述第二数据序列中所述导频符号的至少一侧添加零电平符号。
在一个具体例子中，添加的所述零电平符号的数量满足如下公式：
K≥L O-2N+1；
K为添加的所述零电平符号的数量；L O为插入所述导频符号后所述导频符号以及与所述导频符号相邻的零电平符号的总数量的最小取值；N为所述上采样处理的上采样倍数。
本申请各个实施例中使用的L O，可以是导频符号组中导频符号以及导频符号两侧的零电平符号的总数量(需满足无ISI)的最小取值。该最小取值意味着：如果导频符号组中的符号数量小于L O，则导频符号可能会产生ISI，如果导频符号组中的符号数量大于或等于L O，则可以实现导频符号无ISI。
该实施例插入零电平符号的规则可以是：导频符号两端的所述零电平符号的数量相等，或所述导频符号两端的所述零电平符号的数量相差1。
在其他的实施例中，如实施例四，仅需要在导频符号的单侧插入零电平符号，则插入的零电平符号的数量可以是上述公式计算的取值的一半，也即

在其他的实施例中，如实施例四，仅需要在导频符号的单侧插入零电平符号，则插入的零电平符号的数量可以是上述公式计算的取值的一半，也即

该实施例通过添加到零电平符号，可以同时得到无ISI的导频符号和有ISI的数据符号，通过上述无ISI的导频符号，可以更准确地捕获信道的动态。
可选地，上述两个例子中，插入所述导频符号后所述导频符号以及与所 述导频符号相邻的零电平符号的总数量的最小取值通过以下公式确定：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000004
τ为所述超奈奎斯特处理的时域重叠系数。
为详细说明上述几个实施例中提到的添加的零电平符号的数量，以下将对其实现原理进行说明。
FTN基带信号处理时，对于时域重叠系数τ的灵活调节是通过分别调整数据和成型滤波器的上采样系数来实现的。假设数据的上采样倍数为N(指一个符号时间/采样周期T内的数据采样点数，一个符号时间内数据是一个冲激响应，所以上采样等效为补(N-1)个零的操作)，成型滤波器的上采样倍数为M(指一个符号时间/采样周期T内的滤波器采样点数)，则有如下公式成立：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000005
X域重叠复用(Overlapped X-Domain Multiplexing，OVXDM)是FTN技术的一个特例，在OVTDM中，τ为一系列离散的点值：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000006
当τ＝1/K时，则可以称所得到OVXTM信号为奈奎斯特采样信号的K倍重叠。推广到FTN系统，则可认为τ＝N/M的FTN信号为奈奎斯特采样信号的M/N倍重叠。
下面将分析插入导频符号的一般规则。已知奈奎斯特信号的采样周期为T，则FTN信号的采样周期为τT。假设上述实施例提到的第二数据序列中，导频符号为p 0，与以p 0为中心的导频符号组左右分别相邻的两个数据符号为x -和x +，关于导频符号组的概念上述实施例已经介绍过，即包括导频符号及 其左右两端的一个或多个零电平符号。
假设p 0与x -的距离为t -，p 0与x +的距离为t +，x -与x +的距离为t ±，易知导频符号p 0与数据符号x -和x +无符号间干扰的充分必要条件为：
t -≥T,t +≥T
由此可得，
t ±＝t -+t +≥2T
对于经过N倍上采样处理的发送序列x[n]，即上述实施例提到的第一数据序列，其符号间隔为τT。令在x -与x +间需要空出分配给导频符号组的符号数为L，则L满足
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000007
则满足条件的L的最小取值为：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000008
该公式表示向上取整。在L O个上采样符号中，假设实际发送的原始数据符号数为q个(这q个数据符号实际上可能是置零处理)，由于上采样，而添加的零电平的符号数为(q+1)*(N-1)个，以下等式成立：
q+(q+1)*(N-1)＝L o
解得：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000009
由此得出了原始数据符号中需要置零作为所插入的导频符号的保护符号原始符号的数量。
本申请实施例中，导频符号可以插入L个上采样符号的中心位置，确保导频符号与数据符号间无符号间干扰。假设长度为L的导频符号组为S＝{s 0,s 1,L,s L-1}。
当L为奇数时，导频符号位于导频符号组中心，即：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000010
当L为偶数时，导频符号位置为：
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000011
或者；
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000012
下面举例说明本申请实施例的原理。如图3所示，发送数据序列
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000013
和所用的成型滤波器进行卷积运算。其中N＝2,M＝3，该处的N为上采样处理的上采样倍数，M为成型滤波器的上采样倍数。
通过上述卷积运算得到图4所示的波形。需要说明是的是，此处为了描述方便，用不同的滤波器波形表示符号波形叠加的形式，实际的波形包络应该是这些滤波器波形的叠加效果。
假设2倍上采样处理，则发送序列(即第一数据序列)间隔补零，零电平符号的位置并不存在波形分量，实际波形分解如图5所示。
此时，假设要在x 2后插入导频符号，则需要x 2和x 5之间的间隔满足公式：t ±＝t -+t +≥2T。由此需要把x 3和x 4置零，并且在x 2和x 5之间的采样点的中心放置导频符号p 0，如图6所示。
可以看出，在图6所示的导频信号的采样位置，没有来自数据符号脉冲的主瓣干扰；而在数据信号的采样位置，则保持了之间的ISI。
本申请各个实施例提供的技术方案可以在基带信号处理的不同阶段灵活实施。如图7所示：在图7中，竖直方向的箭头指向部分是可以进行导频符号插入的节点。情况1和情况2分别在实施例一和二中具体阐述。
实施例一
实施例一对应图7中的情况1。本实施例中，假设导频映射位置(即上述实施例提到的待插入导频符号的位置)已经确定，导频符号直接插入原始数据符号的特定位置中。
数据经过N倍上采样之后，导频符号左右两侧的零电平符号数各为N-1。又根据前述公式
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000014
的计算，保证导频无干扰的导频符号组数为L o，减去一个导频符号，则导频符号组中的零电平符号数为L o-1，则在上采样后的第二数据序列中的导频符号所在位置两侧补零(即添加零电平符号)即可，保证补零数量满足如下公式：
K≥L O-1-2*(N-1)＝L O-2N+1
经过上述补零处理后，导频符号两端均设置有零电平符号，导频符号两端的零电平符号的数量相等，或导频符号两端的零电平符号的数量相差1。
实施例二
实施例二对应图7中的情况2。本实施例中，假设导频映射位置已经确定，则对原始数据需要进行预补零操作。
如图6所示，假设原始数据的信息比特{x 1，x 2，x 5，L}，为了达到本申请实施例的设计效果，在x 2和x 5之间插入“虚拟的”x 3和x 4，实际是一个符号长度的0电平时间间隔。经过这样预处理的信号，进行上采样处理，得到上采样信号。则导频符号插入上采样后信号的x 3和x 4中间的某一位置即可。
实施例三
实施例三阐述了采用本申请实施例提供的导频插入方案下的数据处理技术。
FTN技术的自身特点决定，其数据译码复杂度与存在卷积关系的数据码块长度L呈指数相关。采用申请实施例提供的导频插入方案时，假定插入了W 个导频符号，长度为L的数据码块被分成了W个长度为
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000015
的数据码段，数据码块段之间不存在卷积关系，因此可以独立译码。
假设二进制相移键控(Binary Phase Shift Keying，BPSK)调制，则相关技术中导频簇的方案的复杂度为0(2 L)，使用本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法，复杂度降为
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000016
显然在大部分情况下本申请实施例的方法复杂度较低。
此外，对于更高阶的调制，假设调制符号集的数量为m，则相应的复杂度为0(m L)对
Figure PCTCN2021114278-appb-000017
本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法优势更为明显。因此，本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法的导频插入方案带来的额外好处是：可以让被导频符号分割的数据单独处理，减少了接收机译码复杂度。
实施例四
实施例四给出了一种帧结构，该帧结构利用上述实施例提供的导频传输方法，通过合理放置导频符号所在位置，可以进一步减少在多径信道中的保护间隔(GAP)开销，该帧结构如图8所示。图9是图8所示的帧结构节省GAP开销效果示意图。
该实施例提供的帧结构包括多个第一子帧(图8中示意性地显示出3个)和一个第二子帧，每个所述第一子帧包括保护间隔、导频符号和数据段，其中，在一个第一子帧内，导频符号的数量可以为1。该帧结构中的第二子帧用于发送同步信号簇(syncburst)。
本实施例提供的帧结构中的同步信号簇用于获取时间定时同步，其中：
1、周期性的同步信号簇可以用于多径估计。
2、本申请实施例提供的点状离散导频符号可以用于精确信道估计。
3、导频符号放在一段数据段的起始位置，导频符号前放置保护间隔(GAP)应对多径干扰，导频符号和数据段之间可以按上述实施例介绍的方案进行插入零电平符号的操作，导频符号左侧因存在保护间隔，因此无需执行插入零电平符号的操作，充分利用保护间隔的保护，便于节约开销。
a)该实施例可以保证导频符号无ISI。
b)导频符号和数据段间不需要为多径设置额外GAP，理由为：导频符号已知，由多径造成的对数据的ISI可以通过连续干扰消除(Successive Interference Cancellation，SIC)消除；或者，FTN系统就是利用ML/MAP接收机，算法本身可以克服单点导频的少许ISI影响。这里不同于传统奈奎斯特系统的MMSE接收机，其性能受ISI影响很大。
c)传统方案的帧结构，数据帧前也需要留一段GAP，本方案数据段导频符号前的GAP并没有带来额外开销。
d)传统方案的簇形式的导频，通过进行圆周卷积可以估计多径；采用144或其他数量的符号是为了增加相关峰能量易于检测，本质上还是为了同步服务的。本申请实施例中利用同步信号簇实现这个功能，而进行精确信道估计只需要利用后面的单点导频符号实现，可以减少信道估计的符号开销。
e)实际环境中，多径的生灭较慢，所以本申请实施例利用周期较长的同步信号簇进行跟踪。如果需要粒度更细腻的信道信息，则可以通过数据帧内插入的离散单点导频符号进行精确测量。
4、本申请实施例的额外益处(类似实施例三的阐述)：GAP+导频符号+数据段的结构，相当于FTN数据流被插入的导频分割，使FTN带来的ISI只存在于本地数据段之间，每个数据段可以单独解调，减少了单次最大似然(Maximum Likelihood，ML)/最大后验概率(Maximum APosteriori，MAP) 接收机处理的码长，极大减少了FTN解调复杂度。
在实施例四中提到的第一子帧，在其他的实施方式中，还可以是数据段在第一子帧的头部，保护间隔位于第一子帧的尾部，导频符号位于数据段和保护间隔之间，该实施方式可以达到图8所示的实施例相同或等同的技术效果。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例提供的导频传输方法，执行主体可以为通信设备，或者，该通信设备中的用于执行导频传输方法的控制模块。本申请实施例中以通信设备执行导频传输方法为例，说明本申请实施例提供的通信设备。

导频插入模块1002，可以用于在第一数据序列中插入导频符号，得到第二数据序列。
