- THP algorithm The two key operations of THP algorithm include modulo operation and inter-user interference pre-cancellation. Among them, the modulo operation in the THP algorithm is defined as:
- x is the data symbol
- ⁇ is the modulo constant
- ⁇ is usually specified:
- FIG. 2 is a constellation diagram corresponding to the QPSK modulation mode.
- the values of the initial modulation symbols in the constellation diagram only include the four symbols in the dashed box area in FIG. 2 , that is, the constellation points of standard QPSK.
- the modulation symbol may be any point in the plane, thereby increasing the transmission power of the network device.
- the precoded modulation symbols will be limited to the area of the dashed box, so that the transmission power of the network device can be controlled. Therefore, the modulo operation in the THP algorithm can control the transmit power of the network device.
- the inter-user interference pre-cancellation operation in the THP algorithm adopts successive interference cancellation (succession interference cancellation, SIC).
- the network device performs LQ decomposition on the channel matrix H:
- L is a lower triangular matrix and Q is an M-dimensional unitary matrix. If L is a precoding matrix, obtaining the lower triangular matrix L can make the interference between users causal, that is, the interference of each user can be regarded as only related to the interference of the previously processed users and not interfered by the unprocessed users. influences.
- matrix B is a lower triangular matrix with all 1s on the diagonal.
- the network equipment performs continuous interference cancellation to enable the data flow of each user to successively eliminate the interference of the previously processed data flow.
- the specific implementation is as follows:
- the vector after SIC processing It is also necessary to pre-eliminate the influence of the matrices G and Q, that is, the channel can be passed after multiplying the matrix Q H G:
- the terminal device in order to demodulate the signal correctly, the terminal device also needs to perform a modulo operation before demodulating the received data, so as to recover the modulo information.
- the above-mentioned combination of the SIC process and the modulo operation is the process of the THP algorithm as shown in FIG. 3 .
- a is the sending information
- ⁇ is the modulo operation
- P is the transmit power
- ⁇ is the power control factor
- H represents the channel
- ⁇ represents the decision on the received symbol
- n is the noise
- the BI matrix in the feedback loop represents the SIC process described above.
- the received signal on the receiving side is:
- the demodulation reference signal (demodulation reference sgnal, DMRS) received by the terminal device is:
- the THP algorithm can eliminate the interference caused by multi-antenna channels, and the power of the transmitted signal can be limited by the modulo operation, but from the simulation results corresponding to the ZF precoding and THP algorithms shown in Figure 4, it can be seen that, When the network device uses the THP algorithm for precoding, the throughput of the terminal device is much smaller than that when the network device uses ZF precoding. That is to say, the reception performance of the terminal device when the network device uses the THP algorithm for precoding is much smaller than the reception performance of the terminal device when the network device uses ZF precoding. This is due to the unavoidable performance loss in the THP algorithm.
- the three main sources of performance loss are also the main sources of performance loss in nonlinear precoding algorithms. The three main losses are described below:
- Shaping loss In the interference pre-cancellation of the nonlinear precoding algorithm, in order to avoid the increase of the transmission power of the information after subtracting the interference from the initial information, a modulo operation is adopted, so that the information after descrambling is limited to Within the range of , the elements of the transmitted information after the modulo operation are in the interval is evenly distributed within.
- the Shannon channel capacity formula if the transmission rate is to reach the channel capacity of the Gaussian additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel, the input of the channel is required to be Gaussian distribution, while the input in the nonlinear precoding algorithm is uniformly distributed , thus causing a loss of shaping of the transmitted information.
- the shaping loss is not significant at low signal noise ratio (SNR), and the final shaping loss can reach 1.53dB at high SNR.
- the modulo operation must be performed using acausal information in the high-dimensional sphere.
- the modulo operation in the nonlinear precoding algorithm is equivalent to a one-dimensional quantization process, and the output of the modulo operation is the quantization error.
- the high-dimensional modulo operation is equivalent to a vector quantizer that outputs vector quantization errors.
- the Voronoi Region of an ideal vector quantizer is a high-dimensional sphere, and a portion of the shaping gain can be obtained, which can reduce the transmit power by 1.53dB when compared to a cube.
- the embodiment of the present application temporarily ignores the shaping loss.
- Modulo loss that is, the loss caused by the nonlinear precoding algorithm when the terminal device performs the modulo operation. According to the characteristics of the modulo operation, no matter how big the received symbol is, the terminal device will limit the received symbol to the area, and determine it as the closest constellation point to recover the original symbol. However, if the transmitted symbol is at the edge of an extended constellation diagram, after being affected by noise, a modulo operation is performed on the terminal device, which may fall into the judgment area of another constellation point, resulting in an error in judgment. The modulo loss can be significant when using low-order modulation.
- modulo loss is described below in conjunction with the likelihood ratio (LLR) of the l-th bit of the s-th received symbol:
- the received symbol for each user is equivalent to:
- n obeys a Gaussian random variable with mean value and variance ⁇ 2
- ⁇ is a constant
- n' also obeys Gaussian random distribution with mean zero and variance ⁇ 2 ⁇ 2
- the set of M-QAM constellation points is denoted by ⁇
- the likelihood ratio LLR(b s,l ) of the l-th bit of the s-th received symbol corresponding to formula (14) is expressed as :
- the following takes the transceiver system under the QPSK modulation mode as an example to briefly analyze the influence of the modulo operation on the LLR calculation of the terminal device.
- the transmitted symbol is S1
- the received symbol will fall outside the modulo limit, that is, point A.
- the LLR value of the first bit of the received symbol calculated according to formula (17) should be an integer with a relatively large magnitude, because the received symbol before the modulo operation is far away from S1 (distance received The point with the closest symbol and the first bit being 0) is closer than S2 (the point closest to the received symbol and the first bit being 1).
- the receiving end introduces the modulo operation
- the received symbol will slide to the modulo limit, but it will slide to the other end of the constellation diagram, as shown in point B in Figure 5.
- the received symbol is closer to S2 than S1, so
- the above-mentioned LLR value calculated according to the formula (17) becomes a negative number with a large magnitude. That is to say, after the receiving end undergoes the modulo operation, the LLR value of the same bit changes from a large positive number to a large negative number, which is the modulo error.
- the modulo error makes the LLR information highly misaligned. When the misaligned LLR value is input into the turbo decoder, it is difficult for the decoder to correct the error, which increases the probability that the terminal equipment makes a wrong decision on the received symbol. , resulting in poor reception performance of the terminal device.
- Vector perturbation Vector perturbation, VP
- the VP algorithm obtains performance gain by changing the transmission information a.
- the specific method is to add a disturbance vector after the transmission information a, that is:
- p is the added disturbance vector
- ⁇
- ⁇ is the power gain factor of the VP algorithm
- H is the channel matrix
- P is the power constraint factor
- x is the network precoding after the data symbol.
- the terminal equipment Since the added disturbance vector changes the initial information, the terminal equipment must have a method of removing disturbance in order to demodulate the information.
- the VP algorithm adopts the same method as the receiving end of the THP algorithm to remove the disturbance, that is, the modulo operation, which also makes the selection of the disturbance vector p must have certain restrictions, otherwise the receiving end cannot remove the disturbance by taking the modulo.
- the value range of the perturbation vector p is p ⁇ CZ, C is a complex number, and Z is an integer, that is, all elements of the perturbation vector p take values in the complex integer domain that is multiples of ⁇ , and ⁇ is the modulo constant in the above THP algorithm. . Therefore, the terminal device can eliminate the disturbance vector p by taking the modulo operation:
- a is the transmitted information
- p is the disturbance vector
- P is the transmit power
- ⁇ is the power control factor
- H represents the channel
- ⁇ represents the judgment on the received symbol
- n is the noise, for the information received
- Fig. 7 is the beam distribution of the user in different scenarios, the abscissa axis represents the beam index 1-64, the index is obtained according to the discrete Fourier transform (discrete Fourier transform, DFT) matrix corresponding to 64 pairs of antennas, The ordinate represents the percentage of users distributed on the corresponding beam index.
- DFT discrete Fourier transform
- scenario A there are 6 beams with a distribution ratio greater than 5%, and there are no users on many beams, and the user distribution is relatively uniform; in scenario B, most of the users are distributed in the beams On the beams corresponding to indices 2, 27, 33, 57, and 59, the user distribution in scenario B is more concentrated than the distribution in scenario A, while in scenario C, most users are distributed at index 7 Compared with the user distribution in scenario B, the user distribution of the beam corresponding to index 35 is more dense, that is, the user distribution is relatively uneven. Therefore, it can be seen from Figure 7 that in different scenarios, the distribution of its users has the characteristics of uneven distribution.
- Table 1 shows the cell test results when the network device uses a linear algorithm to precode the transmitted data under different degrees of uniform distribution of users.
- the user distribution is scattered, that is, the user distribution is uniform.
- the number of paired layers of the obtained cell in this scenario is 7.4, and the cell throughput rate is 128M; in Scenario 2, the user distribution is relatively scattered, that is, the user The distribution is relatively uniform.
- the number of cell pairing layers obtained is 6.1, and the throughput rate of the cell is 77M; in scenario 3, the user distribution is relatively dense, that is, the user distribution is relatively uneven, and the number of cell pairing layers obtained in this scenario is 5.3, the cell throughput rate is 55M; in scenario 4, the user distribution is relatively dense, that is, the user distribution is uneven, the number of pairing layers obtained in this scenario is 4.7, and the cell throughput rate is 30M.
- the user distribution and performance trend diagram shown in Figure 8 can be obtained from the cell test results in Table 1. That is, the more uneven the user distribution is, the lower the cell pairing performance is, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the terminal equipment is obviously reduced. As a result, the receiving performance of the terminal equipment is worse.
- a nonlinear algorithm is proposed.
- the above-mentioned THP algorithm the network equipment pre-eliminates interference through interference cancellation, thereby reducing the zero-forcing space constraint and improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the terminal equipment.
- the above-mentioned VP algorithm the network device reduces the condition number of the equivalent channel matrix by orthogonalizing the channel and the signal, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the terminal device.
- the simulation results obtained by network equipment precoding transmitted data based on nonlinear precoding are all statistics of BER performance under ideal channel estimation and without coding. Considering the actual channel estimation, the statistical BER performance On the contrary, the BER performance is lower than that when the network device uses a linear algorithm to precode the transmitted data.

Therefore, the embodiments of the present application improve the receiving performance of the terminal device, which can also be understood as improving the nonlinear precoding technology. coding gain.
- FIG. 15 is a schematic flowchart of a data receiving method 200 provided by an embodiment of the present application.
- the data receiving method 200 takes a network device and a terminal device as examples, and is described from the perspective of interaction between the network device and the terminal device.
- the data receiving method 200 includes but is not limited to the following steps:
- the network device determines second indication information; the second indication information is used to indicate the search space corresponding to the disturbance vector used by the terminal device when receiving the first data;
- the network device determines the second indication information when using the nonlinear precoding algorithm to precode the first data, and uses the second indication information to determine the disturbance vector used by the terminal device to receive the first data.
- the search space is indicated to the terminal device, thereby helping to reduce the complexity of the terminal device in determining the disturbance vector.
- the network device determines the foregoing second indication information when using the VP algorithm to precode the first data.
- the network device sends second indication information to the terminal device
- the second indication information is carried in radio resource control RRC signaling or downlink control information DCI. That is, the network device sends the second indication information to the terminal device through RRC signaling or DCI signaling, so that the terminal device also receives the second indication information through RRC signaling or DCI signaling.
- the terminal device receives the second indication information from the network device
- the terminal device receives the first data based on the disturbance vector determined in the search space.
- the search space indicated by the second indication information is indicated by the value of the first parameter. That is, the value of the first parameter may indicate the search space of the disturbance vector, so that the network device may indicate the search space of the disturbance vector by indicating the value of the first parameter to the terminal device.
- the first parameter is l
- the value of l can be 1, 2, 3, or 4, where the value of l is 1 to indicate that the search space is [2,5], and the value of l is 2 to indicate that the search space is [2,5].
- the search space is [5, 9], when the value of l is 3, it is used to indicate that the search space is [10, 23], and when the value of l is 4, it is used to indicate that the search space is [24, 38].
- the search space indicated by the second indication information is indicated by an index corresponding to the first parameter. That is to say, the content of the first indication information is the index of the first parameter.
- the terminal device can determine the value of the first parameter through the index of the first parameter, and then according to the value of the first parameter Determine the search space for perturbation vectors.
- the terminal device determines the value of the first parameter within the value range of the first parameter according to the index of the first parameter.
- the network device before determining the second indication information, the network device sends third indication information to the terminal device, where the third indication information is used to indicate the value range of the first parameter, so that the network device is indicating the first parameter to the terminal device.
- the terminal device can determine the value of the first parameter within the value range of the first parameter by using the index of the first parameter.
- the third indication information is carried in RRC signaling or DCI signaling. That is, the network device may send the third indication information to the terminal device through RRC signaling or DCI signaling, so that the terminal device receives the third indication information through RRC signaling or DCI signaling.
- the RRC signaling is semi-static RRC signaling
- the DCI signaling is dynamic DCI signaling
- the embodiments of this application do not limit the states of RRC signaling and DCI signaling.
- the value range of the first parameter is predefined by the network device. It is understandable that the value range of the first parameter is predefined in the terminal device by the network device, so that the terminal device does not need to notify the terminal device of the value range of the first parameter through the third indication information.
- the value range of the first parameter is predefined by the network device in the local network device, so the network device then informs the terminal device of the predefined value range of the first parameter through the third indication information.
- the network device defines the value range of the first parameter in advance according to the modulation method for the first data, and informs the terminal device of the value range of the first parameter through the third indication information.
- the second indication information is determined by the symbol of the first data. Understandably, the second indication information is determined by the antisymmetry between the sign of the first data and the disturbance vector.
- the anti-symmetry of the disturbance vector refers to the property that the values of the disturbance vector are opposite to each other.
- the terminal device uses QPSK to demodulate the first data
- the value of the disturbance element corresponding to the disturbance vector used by the terminal device to demodulate the received symbol corresponding to the first data is -1, 0 , 1, and when the sign of the first data is positive, most of the elements of the perturbation vector are selected from -1 and 0, and conversely, when the sign of the first data is negative, most of the elements of the perturbation vector are selected from +1 and 0, so that the network device can constrain the search space of the perturbation vector according to the objectivity, so that the terminal device directly determines the perturbation vector from the search space.
- the disturbance vector is determined by the vector disturbance vector pair l k and uk , and the network device determines the first parameter l as: l ⁇ 0,-sgu( u k ) ⁇ .
- -sgu( ) is an Euler function
- the network device may determine the second indication information on the premise of a certain system loss.
- the terminal device selects two non-zero vectors from the 8 candidate sets of disturbance vectors in common search method, and if the network device does not indicate the search space of the disturbance vector of the terminal device, the terminal device needs to search Second-rate. Therefore, the network device greatly reduces the complexity of the terminal device by indicating the search space of the disturbance vector by the terminal device.
- FIG. 16 In the transceiver system taking QPSK as an example, (a) in FIG. 16 is the search range when the terminal device searches for the disturbance vector when the network device does not precode the first data, and (b) in FIG. 16 is the search range when the terminal device searches for the disturbance vector after the network device pre-encodes the first data. (c) in Figure 16 is the search range of the constrained disturbance vector after the network device pre-encodes the first data. After the space is indicated to the terminal device, the search range when the terminal device searches for the disturbance vector. As can be seen from Figure 16, after the network device pre-encodes the first data, the search range of the disturbance vector becomes larger, which increases the processing complexity of the terminal device. However, if the network device constrains the search space of the disturbance vector, and By informing the terminal equipment of the search space, the complexity of searching for the disturbance vector by the terminal equipment can be greatly reduced.
- the algorithm proposed in this embodiment of the present application for notifying the terminal device of the search space of the disturbance vector is called: It is a VP algorithm to enhance the search space, but does not limit the name.

- the terminal device receives the first data based on the disturbance vector determined by the search space, which can reduce the loss of the modulo and improve the receiving performance of the receiving end.
- the embodiment of the present application takes the configuration of relevant parameters as an example, and simulates the current ZF algorithm, the THP algorithm, the enhanced THP algorithm in the data receiving method 100 and the enhanced THP algorithm in the data receiving method 200 proposed in the embodiment of the present application, respectively.

- SRS SNR sounding reference signal signal to noise ratio
- the system performance of the current THP algorithm is worse than that of the ZF algorithm.
- the main reason is that a modulo error occurs during modulo decoding by the terminal device, that is, the noise is greater than the maximum modulo tolerance, resulting in a modulo error. This error is due to the large calculated error soft bit information value, which leads to Turbo decoding cannot correct errors.
- the system performance corresponding to the enhanced THP algorithm is improved, that is, the performance of the enhanced THP algorithm proposed in the embodiments of the present application is slightly better than that of the ZF algorithm.

Description
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种数据接收方法及装置。
为提升频谱利用率,针对多用户的多输入多输出(multiple input multiple output,MIMO)技术被提出,且该MIMO技术在新一代移动通信系统中占据了关键地位。MIMO技术中存在较为复杂的数据处理方法,尤其是在下行链路中为消除用户间的干扰而采取的算法。当前网络设备采用的最简单的算法是线性预编码算法,比如基于迫零(zero forces,ZF)准则、最小均方误差(minimum mean square error,MMSE)准则。然而,网络设备采用线性算法进行预编码时会导致终端设备的信噪比降低,特别是在用户非均匀分布且多用户的信道矩阵高度相关时,终端设备的信噪比降低现象较为明显。
因此,为提高多用户场景下MIMO系统中终端设备的接收性能,提出了非线性预编码算法,如模代数预编码(Tomlinson-Harashimaprecoding,THP)算法、向量扰动(vector perturbation,VP)算法。网络设备采用非线性预编码算法对数据进行预编码时涉及对数据的取模运算,对应地,终端设备接收数据时也会涉及对数据的取模运算。若网络设备发送的数据符号在其对应的星座图的边缘处,那么受噪声的影响,终端设备进行取模运算后,会导致接收符号落入到另一个星座点的判决区域内,导致对接收符号判决出错,从而对数据解调错误,即导致终端设备对数据接收的误码率较高,使得终端设备的接收性能仍不佳。

一种可选的实现方式中,上述基于第一星座图中的第一星座点和第二星座点,计算第一数据对应的似然比LLR,包括:基于第一星座图中的两个星座点以及第一数据对应的解调方式,计算第一数据对应的似然比LLR。
该实现方式中,终端设备不再是基于第二星座图中的两个或两个以上的第一星座点计算获得第一数据对应的LLR,而是基于第一星座图中的两个星座点和第一数据的解调方式,计算获得第一数据对应的LLR,从而可降低终端设备的复杂度。
一种可选的实现方式中,上述基于第一星座图中的两个星座点以及第一数据的解调方式,计算第一数据对应的似然比LLR,包括:根据第一星座图中的第一星座点间的距离和第二星座点间的距离,以及第一数据的解调方式,确定第一门限值;然后根据第一门限值和第一数据对应的接收符号均衡后获得的第一数值,计算该接收符号的似然比LLR。

请参见图1,图1为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的结构示意图。该通信系统可包括但不限于一个网络设备和一个终端设备。图1所示的设备数量和形态用于举例并不构成对本申请实施例的限定,实际应用中可以包括两个或两个以上的网络设备,两个或两个以上的终端设备。图1所示的通信系统以一个网络设备,一个终端设备,且该网络设备能够为该终端设备提供服务为例进行阐述。其中,图1中的网络设备以基站为例,终端设备以手机为例。

以下对本申请实施例涉及到的名词进行阐述:
1.模代数预编码(Tomlinson-Harashimaprecoding,THP)算法。
THP算法关键的两部分操作包括取模运算和用户间干扰预消除。其中,THP算法中的取模运算定义为:
mod
τ(x)=f
τ[Im(x)+jf
τ[Re(x)] (1)
其中,x为数据符号,τ是取模常量,通常规定τ的值为:
τ=2|c|
max+Δ (2)
其中,|c|
max为星座点的最大幅度值,Δ为星座点之间的最小欧式距离。例如,以正交相移键控(Quadrature Phase Shift Keying,QPSK)调制方式为例,QPSK对应的星座图中的初始星座点的集合为
则根据公式(2)计算获得
如图2所示,图2为QPSK调制方式对应的星座图,该星座图中最初的调制符号的取值仅包括图2中虚线框区域内的四个符号,即标准QPSK的星座点。而网络设备对调制符号进行预干扰消除后,调制符号可能是平面中的任意一点,从而使得网络设备的发送功率增大。而网络设备采用公式(1)对调制符号进行取模运算后,预编码之后的调制符号将会被限制在虚线框的区域内,从而可实现对网络设备发送功率的控制。因此,THP算法中的取模运算可控制网络设备的发送功率。
另外,THP算法中的用户间干扰预消除操作采取连续干扰消除(succession interference cancellation,SIC)。首先,网络设备对信道矩阵H进行LQ分解:
H=LQ (3)
其中,L是下三角矩阵,Q是M维酉矩阵。若L为预编码矩阵,则获取下三角矩阵L可使得用户间的干扰具有因果性,即每个用户的干扰可看做是仅与之前处理的用户干扰相关,不受尚未处理的用户干扰的影响。
然后,在下三角矩阵L的基础上定义矩阵B:
B=LG (4)
网络设备进行连续干扰消除是为了使得每个用户的数据流能够逐次消除之前处理的数据流对其的干扰,具体的实现为:
由于:
则:
由于在公式(5)中并未引入取模操作,所以公式(8)虽然完全消除了信道的干扰,但与基于迫零(zero forces,ZF)准则相比,没有本质区别,即网络设备都是通过信道矩阵的逆矩阵来实现干扰消除的。因此,在公式(5)的SIC过程中引入取模操作后,每个
通过增减τ的整数倍,使其发送数据的符号限制在根据τ确定的取模界限内,从而可实现对发送功率的控制。另外,为保证发送功率恒定,还需要功率增益因子的对发送功率的控制。相应地,终端设备为了正确解调信号,在对接收数据解调之前也需进行取模运算,进而恢复出取模后的信息。上述将SIC过程和取模运算结合起来即为如图3所示的THP算法的过程。其中,a为发送信息,
为采用THP算法预编码后的发送信息,mode
τ为取模运算,P 为发送功率,β为功率控制因子,H代表信道,∫代表对接收符号的判决,
为接收到的信息,n为噪声,反馈环路中的B-I矩阵代表上述SIC过程。
当上下行信道匹配时,接收侧接收信号为:
从而,终端设备接收的解调参考信号(demodulation reference sgnal,DMRS)为:
由上述分析可知,THP算法能够消除多天线信道带来的干扰,且通过取模运算可限制发送信号的功率,但从图4所示的ZF预编码和THP算法对应的仿真结果可以看出,该网络设备采用THP算法进行预编码时,终端设备的吞吐量远小于网络设备采用ZF预编码时的吞吐量。也就是说,网络设备采用THP算法预编码时终端设备的接收性能远小于网络设备采用ZF预编码时终端设备的接收性能。这是由于THP算法中存在无法避免的性能损失,其主要性能损失来源于:成形损失、功率损失和取模损失。该三种主要性能损失来源也是非线性预编码算法中的主要性能损失来源。以下分别阐述三种主要损失:
1)成形损失:在非线性预编码算法的干扰预消除中,为避免初始信息减去干扰后的信息的发送功率增大,采用了取模运算,从而将去扰后的信息限制在
的范围内,经过取模运算后的发送信息的元素在区间
内是均匀分布的。而根据香农信道容量公式,若传输速率要达到高斯加性白噪声(additive white Gaussian noise,AWGN)信道的信道容量,要求信道的输入是高斯分布,而非线性预编码算法中的输入是均匀分布的,因此造成了发送信息的成形损失。在AWGN信道中,成形损失在低信噪比(signal noise ratio,SNR)时表现得并不显著,而在高SNR的情况下,最终的成形损失可达到1.53dB。
若要修复成形损耗,必须在高维度的球体中使用非因果方面的信息来进行取模操作。非线性预编码算法中的取模操作相当于一维的量化过程,取模操作的输出就是量化误差。高维度的取模操作就相当于输出矢量量化误差的矢量量化器。理想矢量量化器的泰森多边形区域(Voronoi Region)就是一个高维度的球体,可以获得一部分成形增益,当与立方体相比时可以使得发送功率减小量达1.53dB。由于成形损耗只在高SNR段才较为显著,而 加了Turbo编译码的非线性预编码算法在多输入多输出(multiple input multiple output,MIMO)系统的高SNR区域的误码率(bit error rate,BER)已经很低。因此考虑到终端设备实现复杂度和量化误差空口传输需要改动标准,本申请实施例对成形损耗暂时忽略。
2)功率损失:虽然非线性预编码算法通过取模运算限制了发送功率,但在
内均匀分布的发送信息,其平均功率仍高于初始信息。对于M阶正交振幅(M-quadrature amplitude modulation,M-QAM)调制,其功率损失为M
2/(M
2-1)。因此功率损失在低SNR的信道中采用低阶调制时才会有显著影响。因此本申请实施例也暂时忽略功率损耗。
3)取模损失:即非线性预编码算法在终端设备进行取模运算时所带来的损失。根据取模运算的特点,无论接收到的符号有多大,终端设备经过取模后都会将接收符号限制在
区域内,并且将其判定为距离其最近的星座点,以恢复出最初的符号。但倘若发送的符号在某个扩展星座图的边缘处,受噪声影响后在终端设备进行取模运算,有可能会落到另一个星座点的判决区域内,导致判决出错。取模损失在采用低阶调制时会比较显著。
以下结合第s个接收符号的第l个比特的似然比(likelihood ratio,LLR)阐述取模损耗:
终端设备在取模之前,每个用户的接收符号等效于:
因而对于任意第i个用户而言,其发射信号与接收信号之间的关系可表示为:
y=x+λn=x+n′ (13)
假设n服从均值为量,方差为σ
2的高斯随机变量,而λ是一个常数,因此n′也是服从均值为零,方差为λ
2σ
2的高斯随机分布,且服从
假设M-QAM星座点的集合表示为χ,令
和
表示第s个接收符号的第l个比特分别为0和1的候选符号集,公式(14)对应的第s个接收符号的第l个比特的似然比LLR(b
s,l)表示为:
在已知发射符号为v的条件下,接收符号y
s的条件概率密度函数为:
此时假设所有的发射符号在星座图上均是服从等概率分布的,那么上述似然比可表示为:
对公式(16)运算Max-log-MAP算法,上述LLR可简化为:
基于公式(17),下面以QPSK调制方式下的收发系统为例,简要分析取模操作给终端设备计算LLR带来的影响。如图5所示,当发送符号为S1时,由于噪声的影响,接收符号会落到取模界限之外,即A点处。若没有取模操作,那么按照公式(17)计算得到的接收符号的第一个比特的LLR值应该是一个具有较大幅度的整数,这是因为取模操作之前的接收符号离S1(距离接收符号最近的且第一个比特为0的点)比S2(距离接收符号最近的且第一个比特为1的点)更近些。当接收端引入取模运算后,接收符号会滑到取模界限内,但却滑到了星座图中的另一端,如图5所示的B点,此时接收符号离S2比S1近,因此按照公式(17)计算获得的上述LLR值变成了一个具有很大幅度的负数。也就是说,接收端经过取模操作后,同样一个比特的LLR值由原来的一个很大的正数变成了一个很大的负数,这即为取模误差。该取模误差使得LLR信息高度失准,当该失准后的LLR值输入到Turbo译码器中时,译码器很难矫正该误差,从而会增大终端设备对接收符号判决出错的概率,进而导致终端设备的接收性能较差。
2.向量扰动(vector perturbation,VP)算法。
VP算法是通过改变发送信息a来获得性能增益,具体做法是在发送信息a之后增加一个扰动向量,即:
其中,p为增加的扰动向量,β=||H
+(a+p)||
2,β为VP算法的功率增益因子,H为信道矩阵,P为功率约束因子,x为网络设预编码后的数据符号。
由于增加的扰动向量改变了初始的信息,因此终端设备要解调出信息必须要有去除扰动的方法。VP算法采用了与上述THP算法接收端相同的方法来去除扰动,即取模运算,这也使得扰动向量p的选取必须有一定的限制,否则接收端无法通过取模来去除扰动。
扰动向量p的取值范围为p∈τCZ,C为复数,Z为整数,即扰动向量p的所有元素都在τ倍的复整数域中取值,τ即是上述THP算法中的取模常量。从而终端设备便可通过取模运算消除扰动向量p:
可见,接收信号的噪声由β决定。若期望终端设备获得较佳的接收性能,需β的值越小越好。又由于β=||H
+(a+p)||
2,从而VP算法中可通过调节扰动向量P的值,使得β的值较小,进而提高终端设备的接收性能。
上述阐述的VP算法的系统框图如图6所示。其中,a为发送信息,p为扰动向量,
为采用THP算法预编码后的发送信息,mod e
τ为取模运算,P为发送功率,β为功率控制因子,H代表信道,∫代表对接收符号的判决,n为噪声,
为接收到的信息,
对比图6和图3可见:VP算法的复杂度明显高于线性预编码和THP算法。这是因为求解扰动向量会耗费大量的计算,但可换来更优异的性能。因此,对扰动向量的求解,是VP算法中较为关键的问题。
请参见图7,图7是不同场景下用户的波束分布,横坐标轴代表波束索引1-64,该索引是根据64对天线对应的离散傅里叶变换(discrete Fourier transform,DFT)矩阵得到,纵坐标代表用户分布在对应波束索引上的百分比。从图7可以看出,在场景A中,分布比例大于5%的波束为6个,较多的波束上没有用户的分布,用户分布较为均匀;在场景B中,用户大多数都分布在波束索引为2、27、33、57、59对应的波束上,其用户分布与场景A下的分布相比,场景B中的用户分布较为集中;而在场景C中,用户大多数分布在索引7和索引35对应的波束,其用户分布与场景B中的用户分布相比,其用户分布更为密集,即用户分布较为不均匀。因此,从图7可以看出,在不同场景下,其用户的分布存在不均匀分布的特点。
另外,表1给出了在用户不同分布均匀的程度下,网络设备采用线性算法对发送数据进行预编码时的小区测试结果。从表1可以看出,场景1中,用户分布分散,即用户分布均匀,该场景下获得的小区的配对层数为7.4,小区吞吐率为128M;场景2中,用户分布较分散,即用户分布较均匀,该场景下获得的小区的配对层数为6.1,小区的吞吐率为77M;场景3中,用户分布较密集,即用户分布较为不均匀,该场景下获得的小区配对层数为5.3,小区吞吐率为55M;场景4中,用户分布较为密集,即用户分布不均匀,该场景下获得的配对层数为4.7,小区吞吐率为30M。可见,从表1的小区测试结果可获得如图8所示的用户分布与性能趋势图,即用户分布越不均匀,小区的配对性能越低,从而终端设备的信噪比降低现象较为明显,导致终端设备的接收性能越差。
表1
场景 | 用户数 | 用户分布 | 配对层数 | 小区吞吐率 |
场景1 | 601 | 分散 | 7.4 | 128M |
场景2 | 411 | 较分散 | 6.1 | 77M |
场景3 | 680 | 密集 | 5.3 | 55M |
场景4 | 630 | 较密集 | 4.7 | 30M |
目前,为解决线性算法造成的终端设备的信噪比恶化现象,提出了非线性算法。例如,上述的THP算法。该THP算法中,网络设备通过干扰消除来预消除干扰,从而降低迫零空间约束,提升终端设备的信噪比。再例如,上述的VP算法。该VP算法中,网络设备通过信道和信号的正交化处理,来降低等效信道矩阵的条件数,从而提升终端设备的信噪比。然而,目前网络设备基于非线性预编码对发送数据进行预编码得到的仿真结果均是在理想的信道估计和没有编码的情况下对BER性能的统计,考虑到实际信道估计时,统计的BER性能反而比网络设备采用线性算法对发送数据进行预编码时的BER性能低。
这是由于,网络设备采用非线性预编码算法对数据进行预编码时会涉及对数据的取模运算,对应地,终端设备接收数据时也会涉及对数据的取模运算。若网络设备发送的数据符号在其对应的星座图的边缘处,那么受噪声的影响,终端设备进行取模运算后,会导致接收符号落入到另一个星座点的判决区域内,导致对接收符号对应的星座点判决出错,从而对数据解调错误,即导致终端设备对数据接收的误码率较高,使得终端设备的接收性能仍达不到预期。
本申请实施例提供了一种数据接收方法100。该方法中,接收来自网络设备的第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据,第一星座图是在第二星座图中增加多个第二星座点获得的星座图,第二星座图是网络设备向终端设备发送的第一数据对应的星座图;从而基于第一星座图接收第一数据。也就是说,终端设备不再是仅根据上述第二星座图中的第一星座点接收第一数据,而是基于上述多个第一星座点和多个第二星座点构成的第一星座图接收第一数据,从而有利于减少终端设备进行取模运算导致第一数据对应的接收符号出现误判的概率,即降低了终端设备接收第一数据的误码率,提高了终端设备的接收性能。
本申请实施例还提供一种数据接收方法200。该方法中,接收来自网络设备的第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示终端设备接收第一数据时所采用的扰动向量对应的搜索空间,从而可基于该搜索空间确定的扰动向量接收第一数据。也就是说,终端设备接收第一数据所采用的扰动向量是基于网络设备指示的搜索空间确定的,从而可减少终端设备确定扰动向量的复杂度,进而有利于提高终端设备的接收性能。
以下结合附图对本申请实施例进行阐述。
请参见图9,图9是本申请实施例提供的一种数据接收方法100的流程示意图。该数据接收方法100以网络设备和终端设备为例,从网络设备与终端设备的交互角度进行阐述。该数据接收方法100包括但不限于以下步骤:
S101.网络设备确定第一指示信息;第一指示信息用于指示终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据;第一星座图是在第二星座图中增加多个第二星座点获得的星座图;第二星座图是网络设备向终端设备发送的第一数据对应的星座图;
其中,第一数据是网络设备向终端设备发送的数据,且是网络设备进行预编码前的数据。
一种可选的实现方式中,网络设备在采用非线性预编码算法对第一数据进行预编码时,为降低终端设备的取模损耗,网络设备确定用于指示终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据的第一指示信息,使得终端设备不再是基于第一数据对应的第二星座图接收数据,从而有利于提高终端设备的接收性能。例如,网络设备在采用THP算法或VP算法对第一数据进行预编码时,确定上述第一指示信息。
另一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备可根据本终端设备的处理能力,请求网络设备降低处理的复杂度,从而网络设备接收到终端设备的请求后,确定用于指示终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据的第一指示信息,从而使得终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据,进而有利于提高终端设备的接收性能。
S102.网络设备向终端设备发送第一指示信息;
一种可选的实现方式中,第一指示信息带于以下一种信令中:无线资源控制RRC信令、下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)信令、介质访问控制MAC层信令。也就是说,网络设备可通过RRC信令或DCI信令或MAC层信令将第一指示信息发送给终端设备,从而S103中,终端设备可通过RRC信令或者DCI信令或者MAC层信令接收第一指示信息。
可理解的,本申请实施例不对上述RRC信令或DCI信令的状态做限定。例如,上述RRC信令可以是半静态的RRC信令,上述DCI信令可以是动态的DCI信令,等等。
S103.终端设备接收来自网络设备的第一指示信息;
S104.终端设备基于第一星座图接收数据。
一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据之前,还包括:终端设备基于第二星座图中两相邻第一星座点间的距离在第二星座图中增加多个第二星座点,获得第一星座图。也就是说,终端设备是按照第二星座点间的距离和两相邻第一星座点间的距离相等的原则,在第二星座图上增加多个第二星座点的。其中,第二星座图中两相邻第一星座点间的距离可指第二星座图中在横轴或纵轴方向上两相邻第一星座点间的距离。可选的,第二星座图中两相邻第一星座点间的距离也可指第二星座图中在对角线方向上两相邻第一星座点间的距离。
例如,网络设备采用QPSK对第一数据进行调制,那么第一数据对应的第二星座图为如图10所示的星座图,此时第一星图是基于图10中第二星座图的点A和点B第一星座点间的距离,分别在原来的四个第一星座点的基础上增加12个第二星座点获得的星座图,从而第一星座图中点E和点F间的距离与第二星座图中点A和点B间的距离相等。
再例如,网络设备采用16-QAM对第一数据进行调制,那么第一数据对应的第二星座图如图11所示,此时第一星座图是基于图11中两相邻第一星座点间的距离,分别在第二星座图最外层的第一星座点的基础上增加多个第二星座点后获得的星座图,即如图11所示的第一星座图。
再例如,网络设备采用64-QAM对第一数据进行调制,那么第一数据对应的第二星座图如图12所示,此时第一星座图是基于图12中两相邻第一星座点间的距离,分别在第一星座图最外层的第一星座点的基础上增加多个第二星座点后获得的星座图,即如图12所示的第一星座图。
一种实现方式中,星座点间的距离指的是在横轴方向或纵轴方向两相邻星座点间的距离。也就是说,第一星座点间的距离指的是第二星座图中在横轴方向或纵轴方向上两相邻第一星座点间的距离;第二星座点间的距离指的是第一星座图中在横轴方向或纵轴方向上相邻第二星座点间的距离。例如,如图10所示,第一星座点间的距离可指点A与点B之间的距离,还可指点A与点C之间的距离,还可指点C与点D之间的距离,还可指点B与点D之间的距离;第二星座点间的距离可指点E与点F之间的距离,还可指点E与点G之间的距离,等等。
另一种实现方式中,星座点间的距离指的是星座图中对角线上两相邻星座点间的距离。也就是说,第一星座点间的距离指的是第二星座图中对角线上两相邻第一星座点间的距离;第二星座点间的距离指的是第一星座图中对角线上两相邻星座点间的距离,两星座点中包括至少一个第二星座点。例如,如图10所示,第一星座点间的距离指的是点B和点C之间的距离,点A和点D之间的距离,第二星座点间的距离指的是点G和点F之间的距离,等等。
也就是说,星座点间的距离可以有上述两种理解方式,但本身申请实施例并不做限定。
一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备是先根据上述公式(2)计算获得取模常量τ,然后将第二星座图按照该τ的值分别在横轴和纵轴方向上平移,从而得到增加的多个第二星座点,获得第一星座图。该实现方式中,由于终端终端设备是按照τ的值对第二星座图进行平移,从而获得的第二星座点间的距离和第一星座点间的距离相等。也就是说,在第一星座图中,增加的多个第二星座点间的距离和原来的第一星座点间的距离相等。例如,图10中的第一星座图是终端设备按照τ将第二星座图进行平移获得的,则图10中的点E与点F之间的距离l
1与点A与点B之间的距离l
2相等,点B与点C间的距离和点G与点F之间的距离相等。
另一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备可根据上述τ以及网络设备预设的一个值,将第二星座图分别在横轴和纵轴方向上平移,从而得到增加的多个第二星座点,获得第一星座图。此时终端设备对第二星座图进行平移时,还结合了网络设备预设的值,从而使得第二星座点间的距离和第一星座点间的距离不再相等。例如,上述图10中的第一星座图是终端设备基于上述τ和网络设备指示的α将第二星座图进行横轴方向和纵轴方向进行平移得到的,α可为大于0,小于0.5的数。从而图10中的第二星座点间的距离和第一星座点间的距离不再相等指的是:点E与点F间的距离和点A与点B间的距离不再相等。
从上述图10、图11、图12观察可得,第一星座图是在第二星座图的最外层星座点上添加一层第二星座点获得的。可选的,终端设备可在第二星座图的最外层星座点上添加多层第二星座点获得第一星座图。比如,在第二星座图的最外层星座点上进行全屏扩展,添加多层第二星座点获得第一星座图。但由于按照上述公式(17)计算接收符号的LLR时,第一星座图中的很多外围星座点在求最小距离的过程中,会被自动舍去,因此一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备是在第二星座图的最外层星座点上增加一层第二星座点,获得第一星座图,从而可减少终端设备的复杂度。
以下阐述终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据的实施方式:一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据,包括:基于第一星座图中的第一星座点和第二星座点,计算第一数据对应的似然比LLR,然后基于该LLR接收第一数据。
其中,终端设备是基于前述公式(17)计算第一数据对应的LLR的。该实现方式使得终端设备不再只基于第二星座图中的第一星座点计算第一数据对应的LLR,而是基于第一星座图中的第一星座点和第二星座点计算第一数据对应的LLR,从而使得终端设备可在第一数据对应的接收符号落入到其他符号的判决区域时,减少终端设备进行取模运算导致第一数据对应的接收符号出现误判的概率,即降低了终端设备接收第一数据的误码率,提高了终端设备的接收性能。
另一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备基于第一星座图中的第一星座点和第二星座点,计算第一数据对应的似然比LLR,包括:终端设备基于第一星座图中的两个星座点以及第一数据的解调方式,计算该第一数据对应的接收符号的似然比LLR。也就是说,终端设备在对接收符号进行判决时,不再是基于上述第二星座图中的两个以上的第一星座点对接收符号进行判决,而只需根据第一星座图中的两个星座点对接收符号进行判决,从而可降低终端设备对接收符号判决的复杂度。
也就是说,本申请实施例中的非线性预编码算法是基于第一星座图中的第一星座点和第二星座点计算第一数据对应的接收符号的LLR。例如,本申请实施例提出的非线性预编码算法为THP算法,为与目前的基于第二星座图中的第一星座点计算该接收符号的LLR的THP算法进行区别,本申请实施例将该方式下的THP算法称之为增强后的THP算法,但本申请实施例并不限定对该方式下的THP算法的命名做限定。
另外,分别如图10、图11、图12所示,终端设备基于第一星座图中第一星座点和第二星座点中的两个星座点,计算获得的第一数据对应的接收符号的LLR值,与终端设备基于第二星座图中的第一星座点计算获得的接收符号的LLR值相比,前者计算获得的LLR值误差小于后者计算获得的LLR值,从而有利于减少终端设备进行取模运算导致第一数据对应的接收符号出现误判的概率,即降低了终端设备接收第一数据的误码率,提高了终端设备的接收性能。
例如,终端设备采用QPSK对第一数据解调,从而终端设备获得的第一星座图如图13所示,从图13中可以看出,第一星座图包括12个星座点,即取模界限内的4个原始的第一星座点和增加的取模界限外的8个第二星座点。第一数据对应的接收符号S1在终端设备处经过取模运算后从第一象限漂移到第二象限,此时相比于S1,S8才是距离接收符号最近的比特0,因此需要与接收符号S2和接收符号间欧式距离(到比特1最近的点)相比较的是符号S8和接收符号间的欧氏距离(到比特0最近的点),而不是接收符号S1和接收符号间的欧氏距离(因为S1不再是到比特0最近的点)。虽然S8到接收符号的欧氏距离仍然大于S2到接收符号的欧氏距离(即LLR还是负数),但是因为取模运算之后的S8比S1更接近接收符号,从而使得按照前述公式(17)计算出来第一个比特的LLR的幅度比按照图9所示的第二星座图计算出来的原始LLR的幅度要小得多。如前所述,如果接收端没有引入取模运算,那么接收符号的第一个比特的LLR值将为正数,虽然本申请实施例提出的基于第一星座图进行软解调的方式没有将LLR值由负数校正为正数,但是相比于基于第 二星座图进行软解调同为负数的LLR的幅度却大大减小。从而大大减小了由于取模误差引起的LLR的失准度,并且使得Turbo译码器更容易的校正这些取模误差,有利于降低对接收符号对应的星座点判决出错的概率,进而提高接收端的接收性能。
当终端设备采用非线性预编码算法对第一数据进行预编码的过程中不存在取模损耗时,本申请实施例所提出的非线性预编码算法会影响对第一数据的LLR,但仍可提高终端设备的接收性能。例如,如图14所示,终端设备采用QPSK对第一数据进行解调,若接收符号落在取模界限内时,该方式下的非线性预编码算法将不会存在取模损耗,因而也不会引入取模误差。当接收符号落在s1和s2之间时,终端设备基于上述第一星座图计算获得的接收符号的LLR值与基于上述第二星座图计算获得的接收符号的LLR值相等,从而不会影响终端设备的接收性能。另外,当接收符号落在如图中所示的星座点s1与取模界限之间时,终端设备基于上述第一星座图计算获得的接收符号的LLR值与基于上述第二星座图计算获得的接收符号的LLR值的符号相同,但是幅度值将减小。
因此该情况下,终端设备基于第一星座图计算获得的接收符号的LLR数值有所减小,但是其数值的符号还是与基于第二星座图计算获得的LLR的符号相同,因此系统的性能衰落较小。这是由于Turbo译码器的性能是由取模误差决定的,本申请实施例提出的通过第一星座图接收第一数据来减小由于取模误差引起的LLR失准的方案仍可提高终端设备的接收性能。
又一种可选的实现方式中,终端设备基于第一星座图中第一星座点和第二星座点中的两个星座点以及对第一数据对应的接收符号的解调方式,计算接收符号的似然比LLR,包括:根据第一星座图中的第一星座点间的距离和第二星座点间的距离,以及第一数据的解调方式,确定第一门限值;根据第一门限值和第一数据对应的接收符号均衡后获得的第一数值,计算该接收符号的似然比LLR。
可理解的,终端设备在不同的解调方式下,可根据第一星座图中的第一星座点间的距离和第二星座点间的距离,确定第一门限值,再基于第一门限值和对接收符号均衡后获得的第一数值,对接收符号进行判决,通过对基于第二星座图计算获得的LLR值进行数学运算,计算获得接收符号的LLR。其中,该数学运算可包括但不限于加法运算、乘法运算、减法运算、绝对值运算、取模运算,等等。
可见,该实现方式下,终端设备获得接收符号的算法运算中,是基于第一星座点间的距离和第二星座点的距离确定第一门限值,即与上述基于第一星座点和第二星座点对接收符号进行判决是相同的处理方式,从而可降低获得的LLR值的误差,从而有利于降低接收第一数据的误码率,提高系统的性能。
以下以采用QPSK、16QAM、64QAM对第一数据进行解调为例,阐述上述基于第二星座图和第一星座图接收第一数据时对应的算法实现:

1、4+ε

5≤0.5,-0.5≤ε
7≤0.5,-0.5≤ε
8≤0.5。
上述不同第一解调方式下,根据确定的第一门限值都不相同,从而可根据不同的解调方式确定的第一门限值接收第一数据,实现对第一数据的可靠接收。
可见,本申请实施例中,网络设备通过第一指示信息指示终端设备基于第一星座图接收第一数据,由于第一星座图包括第一数据对应的第二星座图中的第一星座点以及在第二星座图上增加的多个第二星座点,使得终端设备不再是仅根据上述第二星座图中的第一星座点接收第一数据,而是基于上述多个第一星座点和多个第二星座点构成的第一星座图接收第一数据,从而有利于减少终端设备进行取模运算导致第一数据对应的接收符号出现误判的概率,即降低了终端设备接收第一数据的误码率,提高了终端设备的接收性能。
可理解的,本申请实施例是针对终端设备采用非线性预编码技术解调时提出的数据接收方法,因此本申请实施例提高了终端设备的接收性能,也可理解为是提高了非线性预编码的增益。
请参见图15,图15是本申请实施例提供的一种数据接收方法200的流程示意图。该数据接收方法200以网络设备和终端设备为例,从网络设备与终端设备的交互角度进行阐述。该数据接收方法200包括但不限于以下步骤:
S201.网络设备确定第二指示信息;第二指示信息用于指示终端设备接收第一数据时所采用的扰动向量对应的搜索空间;
一种可选的实现方式中,网络设备在采用非线性预编码算法对第一数据进行预编码时,确定第二指示信息,通过第二指示信息将终端设备接收第一数据所采用的扰动向量的搜索空间指示给终端设备,从而有利于降低终端设备确定扰动向量的复杂度。例如,网络设备在采用VP算法对第一数据进行预编码时,确定上述第二指示信息。
S202.网络设备向终端设备发送第二指示信息;
一种可选的实现方式中,第二指示信息携带于无线资源控制RRC信令或下行控制信息DCI中。也就是说,网络设备通过RRC信令或DCI信令将第二指示信息发送给终端设备,从而终端设备也通过RRC信令或DCI信令接收该第二指示信息。
S203.终端设备接收来自网络设备的第二指示信息;
S204.终端设备基于搜索空间确定的扰动向量接收第一数据。
其中,第一数据参见上述数据接收方法100中的阐述,不再赘述。
一种可选的实现方式中,第二指示信息指示的搜索空间是通过第一参数的值指示的。也就是说,第一参数的值可指示扰动向量的搜索空间,从而网络设备可通过向终端设备指示第一参数的值来指示扰动向量的搜索空间。例如,第一参数为l,l的值可为1、2、3、4,其中,l的值为1时用于指示搜索空间为[2,5],l的值为2时用于指示搜索空间为[5,9],l的值为3时用于指示搜索空间为[10,23],l的值为4时用于指示搜索空间为[24,38]。
另一种可选的实现方式中,第二指示信息指示的搜索空间是通过第一参数对应的索引指示的。也就是说,第一指示信息的内容是第一参数的索引,终端设备接收到第一指示信息后,可通过该第一参数的索引确定第一参数的值,进而根据该第一参数的值确定扰动向量的搜索空间。
终端设备根据第一参数的索引在第一参数的取值范围内确定第一参数的值。一种实现方式中,网络设备确定第二指示信息之前,向终端设备发送第三指示信息,第三指示信息 用于指示第一参数的取值范围,从而网络设备在向终端设备指示第一参数的索引时,终端设备可通过第一参数的索引在第一参数的取值范围内确定出第一参数的值。
一种可选的实现方式中,第三指示信息携带于RRC信令或DCI信令中。也就是说,网络设备可通过RRC信令或DCI信令将第三指示信息发送给终端设备,从而终端设备通过RRC信令或DCI信令接收第三指示信息。可选的,该RRC信令是半静态RRC信令,该DCI信令是动态DCI信令,本申请实施例不对RRC信令和DCI信令的状态做限定。
另一种可选的实现方式中,第一参数的取值范围是网络设备预定义的。可理解的,第一参数的取值范围是网络设备在终端设备中预先定义的,从而终端设备无需通过第三指示信息将第一参数的取值范围告知给终端设备。可选的,第一参数的取值范围是网络设备在本网络设备中预定义的,从而网络设备再通过上述第三指示信息将预定义的第一参数的取值范围告知给终端设备。例如,网络设备预先根据对第一数据的调制方式,定义第一参数的取值范围,并通过第三指示信息将该第一参数的取值范围告知给终端设备。
一种可选的实现方式中,第二指示信息是通过第一数据的符号确定的。可理解的,第二指示信息是通过第一数据的符号和扰动向量的反对称性确定的。其中,该扰动向量的反对称性指的是扰动向量的取值互为相反数的性质。
例如,如表2所示,终端设备采用QPSK对第一数据解调,终端设备对第一数据对应的接收符号进行解调时所采用的扰动向量对应的扰动元素的取值为-1,0,1,且当第一数据的符号为正时,扰动向量的大部分元素从-1和0中选择,相反,当第一数据的符号为负时,扰动向量的元素大部分从+1和0中选择,从而网络设备可根据该反对成性约束扰动向量的搜索空间,使得终端设备直接从该搜索空间中确定扰动向量。例如,扰动向量由矢量扰动向量对l
k和u
k确定,网络设备确定第一参数l为:l∈{0,-sgu(u
k)}。其中,-sgu()为欧拉函数,u
k为第一数据的接收符号。从而终端设备接收到第二指示信息后,若第一数据u
k=1,则终端设备确定的l=1就不会被选中。
表2
另一种可选的实现方式中,网络设备可以一定的系统损耗为代价的前提,确定第二指示信息。例如,如表3所示,表3为球形搜索出来的扰动向量的向量中不同非零元素的个数对应的概率,表3中的w表示扰动向量中非零元素的个数。从表3可以看出,扰动向量中w小于2的概率为p(w<2)=0.8129,若网络设备就以该性能损耗为代价,指示终端设备扰动向量的搜索空间为扰动向量中非零元素为2个时对应的搜索空间。可见,终端设备从扰动向量 的8个候选集中选择两个非零向量共有
种搜索方式,而若网络设备不指示终端设备扰动向量的搜索空间,则终端设备需搜索
次。从而网络设备通过终端设备指示扰动向量的搜索空间的方式大大降低了终端设备的复杂度。
表3
请参见图16,以QPSK为例的收发系统下,图16中的(a)是网络设备不对第一数据进行预编码时,终端设备搜索扰动向量时的搜索范围,图16中的(b)是网络设备对第一数据进行预编码后,终端设备搜索扰动向量时的搜索范围,图16中的(c)是网络设备对第一数据进行预编后,且将约束后的扰动向量的搜索空间指示给终端设备后,终端设备搜索扰动向量时的搜索范围。从图16可以看出,网络设备对第一数据进行预编码后,扰动向量的搜索范围变得较大,加大了终端设备处理的复杂度,但若网络设备约束扰动向量的搜索空间,并将该搜索空间告知给终端设备,则可较大程度地降低终端设备搜索扰动向量的复杂度。
一种可选的实现方式中,当网络设备采用VP算法对第一数据预编码时,为与目前的VP算法区别,本申请实施例将提出的告知终端设备的扰动向量的搜索空间的算法称为增强搜索空间的VP算法,但并不对该命名做限定。
可见,本申请实施例中,网络设备通过第二指示信息,将终端设备接收第一数据时所采用的扰动向量指示给了终端设备,使得终端设备可快速通过该搜索空间确定扰动向量, 从而可降低终端设备确定扰动向量的复杂度。另外,终端设备基于该搜索空间确定的扰动向量接收第一数据,可降低取模损耗,提高接收端的接收性能。
另外,本申请实施例以配置相关参数为例,分别仿真了目前的ZF算法、THP算法与本申请实施例提出的数据接收方法100中增强后的THP算法和数据接收方法200中的增强后的VP算法对应的系统性能。例如,本申请实施例配置的相关参数包括信道模型、信道多径类型、终端设备天线数、网络设备天线数,等等。
本申请实施例仿真得到如图4所示的网络设备采用ZF算法和目前的THP算法的性能图,如图17所示的ZF算法与本申请实施例中增强后的THP算法的性能图。从图4和图17可以看出,在探测参考信号的信噪比(sounding reference signal signal to noise ratio,SRS SNR)等于20dB时,目前的THP算法的系统性能差于ZF算法的系统系能,主要是由于终端设备在取模译码时发生了取模误差,即噪声大于最大取模容忍度,导致取模误差,这种误差是由于计算出的错误软比特信息值较大,导致后端Turbo译码无法纠错。增强后的THP算法对应的系统性能有所提升,即本申请实施例提出的增强后的THP算法的性能略优于ZF算法的性能。因此,通过前述分析和仿真结果可以证明本申请实施例可有效提升终端设备采用非线性算法时的接收性能,即保证了非线性预编码技术的增益。
本申请实施例仿真得到的不同SNR下的ZF算法与本申请实施例提出的增强搜索空间的vp算法对应的性能图。从图18可以看出:在SRS的信噪比大于等于10dB时,本申请实施例提出的增强搜索空间的VP算法的性能高于ZP算法的性能;当SRS信噪比小于10dB时,本申请实施例提出的增强搜索空间的VP算法的性能低于ZP算法的性能。也就是说,当SRS信噪比大于10dB时,本申请实施例可提高终端设备的接收性能,保证了非线性预编码技术的增益;当SRS信噪比小于10dB时,本申请实施例可降低终端设备的复杂度。
另外,从图17和图18中可以看出,在终端设备的收发天线数目不相等的情况下,本申请实施例中的增强后的VP算法的接收性能要优于增强后的THP算法,即增强后的VP算法使得终端设备获得了更优的接收性能。
