POWER CONTROL OF BASE STATION IN BROAD-
BAND DIGITAL MOBILE COMMUNICAITON SYSTEM
Field of the Technolo
The present invention relates to a multi-carrier power control apparatus for base station in a broadband digital mobile communication system and control method thereof, and it can be applied to all Time Division Multiple Address (TDMA) systems in which power control is required.
Among all digital cellular mobile communication systems, the GSM communication system is the most developed and has the largest market occupation. It employs the digital wireless communication technology in which FDMA and TDMA are combined.
One of the effective measures for improving the system capacity of GSM communication system is to increase the utilization factor of the spectrum, specifically, is to decrease interference between channels. At present, there are three kinds of main methods for decreasing the interference: automatic power control, frequency hopping and discontinuous transmitting (DTX). Here, DTX is essentially a kind of power control method. Therefore, the power control in GSM is an important means for decreasing the multiple access interference. It not only can significantly improve the channel quality, but also can increase the system capacity to a large extent.
The principle of the automatic power control is that the transmitting power of a transmitter will be adaptively decreased under a condition that the excellent transmission quality can be obtained without the maximum transmitting power, namely, the even transmitting power of mobile stations and base stations will be reduced if it can be ensured that transmitting quality is greater than a given threshold, thereby the interference to other channels can be decreased. The power control occupies an important position in transmitting technology, specifically, the
® performance quality of a transmitter mainly depends on the performance of the power control. In practice, multiple terms in the wireless specification of GSM aim at the power control.
As shown in Figure 1, a traditional narrow band GSM base station normally employs a close-loop power control method that performs single power control for each carrier. The control procedure is as follows. A positive direction power detection voltage outputted from a power amplifier is detected by a detector 105, then a subtraction is implemented in an adder 104 for the above-mentioned voltage and a template curve 106 obtained in advance according to a certain algorithm, the resultant difference is used to control an attenuator 101 in transmitting passage through an integrator 103, thereby the transmitting power is modified. If the power voltage detected at a certain time is lower than a known template voltage 106, the voltage outputted by the integrator 103 will be increased, the attenuation of the attenuator 101 will be decreased, and the output power will be increased to facilitate the increasing of the positive direction power detection voltage. In contrast, if the detected voltage is higher than the template voltage 106, the voltage outputted by the integrator 103 will be decreased, the attenuation of the attenuator 101 will be increased, and the final output power of the power amplifier will be decreased, thereby the voltage outputted by the detector will be decreased.
The power control of a broadband multi-carrier GSM system is a new subject occurring in an evolvement procedure of GSM base station from narrow band to broadband, and it is also a problem that must be solved in developing the broadband multi-carrier GSM technology. Since there is a large difference between the structure of a broadband base station and that of a traditional base station, it is difficult to apply the traditional single-carrier power control method to a broadband base station. So far, the information on the multi-carrier power control of GSM has not been found.
A multi-carrier signal is a combination of the respective single-carrier signals.
Because the frequency points and powers of the respective carriers are variable and the envelope of a multi-carrier combination signal is difficult to be predicted, it is difficult to detect the power envelopes of the respective carrier frequencies with a simple and easy method. While the power envelope of each carrier can be detected in real time is a premise condition to implement the close-loop power control, therefore,
_ a great difficult exists in implementing the close-loop power control for multi-carrier signals.
In order to overcome the disadvantages of the traditional power control method for the base station, an object of the present invention is to provide a multi-carrier power control apparatus for the base station in a broadband digital mobile communication system and control method thereof By using an inherent characteristic that the transmitting channel of the multi-carrier transmitter has super- linearity, this method and apparatus are capable of simultaneously performing the power control for a plurality of carriers and satisfying the requirements of the time domain template and the frequency domain template at the same time. Furthermore, the power control for the respective carriers is independent of each other, therefore, the transmitting power of any carrier at any time slot can be varied flexibly and easily.

After being processed by the slope data processor, also two ways of signals are outputted, the signals of one way are outputted respectively to N digital up- conversion processors, and the signals of the other way are outputted to the transmitter with a numerical controlled attenuator to be transmitted by the transmitter.

A multi-carrier power control apparatus for base station in a broadband digital mobile communication system according to the invention and control method thereof
_ employ multi-carrier open-loop power control. The power control for the respective carriers can be implemented before synthesizing the multi-way digital intermediate frequency signals.
The method for implementing multi-carrier power control before synthesizing the multi-way digital intermediate frequency signals is to implement the dynamic power control and the slope power control for each carrier individually in advance, and then to synthesize the multi-way carriers. The static power control can be implemented not only for individual carrier frequencies respectively, but also in common portion. The idea of the power control is that the power control for each carrier is completed before multi-way synthesizing, namely, the dynamic power control and the up-down slope control are implemented firstly for each carrier, and then multi-way synthesizing is implemented. The dynamic power control and the up- down slope control can be respectively implemented not only in the digital up- conversion processors corresponding to each carrier , but also in the digital multipliers corresponding to each carrier that follow the corresponding digital up-conversion processors. When the dynamic range of DAC is large enough, the static power control is implemented together with the dynamic power control, that is, the static power control is also implemented according to the respective carrier frequencies before synthesizing the multi-way carriers. In contrast, when the dynamic range of DAC is limited, the static power control is implemented in the common channel, that is, the static power control is implemented in the radio frequency portion for the multi-way synthesized signals. The method allows a smooth transition of the slope curve during power level switching process, thereby the abrupt change possibly existing at the power level switching point can be avoided.
A method for implementing multi-carrier power control according to the invention comprises the steps of: (1) the data processor receiving power control data and information about respective carrier frequencies, and generating dynamic control data, static control data and corresponding up-down slope control data for the respective carrier frequencies; (2) the data processor transferring the generated dynamic control data and the up- down slope control data for the respective carrier frequencies to corresponding digital oa, 2003/6447 ® frequency converters to implement the dynamic power level control and the static power control; (3) obtaining a multi-may synthesized multi-carrier signal through summing the signals outputted from the digital frequency converters, and transferring the multi- carrier signal to the numerical controlled attenuator after filtering and digital to analog converting; and (4) the numerical controlled attenuator performing power control for the filtered multi-carrier signal based on the digital to analog converted control data.
Referring to Figure 2 in which a possible multi-carrier power control apparatus is shown, a multi-carrier power control apparatus for base station in a broadband digital mobile communication system according to the embodiment comprises: N digital up- conversion processors 216, a data processor 215, an adder 210, a digital to analog converter 211, a filter 212 and a transmitter 213 with a numerical controlled attenuator. N-way baseband signals 201, 202, 203, ... are respectively inputted to the corresponding N digital up-conversion processors 204, 205, 206, .... Meanwhile, the power control data and the carrier frequency information 214 are sent to the data processor 215 that comprises a control time sequence processor 215a and a slope data processor 215b. The power control data and the carrier frequency information are sent to the control time sequence processor 215a of the data processor. The signals from the control time sequence processor 215a are outputted through two ways, the signals of one way are sent to N digital up-conversion processors, and the signals of the other way are sent to the slope data processor. The signals outputted from the control time sequence processor 215a to the slope data processor 215b are processed by the slope data processor and also two ways of signals are outputted. The signals of one way are outputted to N digital up-conversion processors, respectively, and the signals of the other way are outputted to the transmitter with a numerical controlled attenuator to be transmitted by the transmitter.
Figure 3 illustrates a structure of a digital up-conversion processor used in Figure 2. This digital up-conversion processor is dedicated and can be implemented by ASIC design.
Each digital up-conversion processor comprises a modulator 301, a digital multiplier 304, a filter module 307, an interpolation filter 310 and a numerical
® controlled oscillator 313 that are connected in sequence. The power control data and the carrier frequency information are transferred to the control time sequence processor 215a of the data processor. The signals outputted from the control time sequence processor are divided into two ways, the signals of one way are sent to N digital multipliers 304, 305, 306,... and the signals of the other way are sent to the slope data processor 215b. After processed by the slope data processor, the signals are respectively outputted to N digital multipliers 304, 305, 306, ....
The power control data required for respective carrier frequencies are generated by the data processor 215. The power control for the respective carrier frequencies is implemented by the multiplier modules 304, 305, 306, ..., and the modulation, power control, filtering and digital up-conversion for the baseband signals are implemented by the digital up-conversion processors 304, 305, 306, .... The data processor 215 is used for receiving the information on the dynamic and static power levels of the respective carrier frequencies, generating the up-down slope power control data required for the respective carriers based on the up-down slope control curve, the dynamic power level data and the static power level data, and respectively transferring them to the corresponding digital multiplier modules 304, 305, 306, .... The multiplication of the respective modulation signals 301, 302, 303, ... with the power control data is implemented by the digital multiplier modules 304, 305, 306, ..., and the output data therefrom are processed by the filter modules (RAM Coefficient FIR
Filter, RCF) 307, 308, 309, ..., the interpolation filters (Cascade Integrator Comb FIR
Filter, CIC) 310, 311, 312, ..., and the number controlled oscillator 313, 314, 315, ..., and then calculated by the adder module 210 to synthesize the multi-carrier power controlled data 207, 208, 209, ....
If the static power level control, the dynamic power level control and the up- down slope control are implemented together, total N+M (N is the number of the static power levels supported by the base station, and M is the number of the dynamic power control levels supported by the base station) up-down slope control curves are required. If the static power control is implemented by the numerical controlled attenuator 213 in the analog domain, the number of required up-down slope curves will be decreased to M.
When the invention is applied, the up-down slope data of the respective carriers can be multiplexed. Namely, the corresponding up-down slope data are locked into
@ the corresponding digital multipliers 304, 305, 306, ... by the data processor 215 at proper timing by using the method of time division multiplexing based on the received respective carrier power data and the respective carrier frequency information 214, and an enable is outputted finally to allow the data obtained by multiplying the respective carrier signals to be simultaneously transferred to the adder 210 to be accumulated.
Another possible multi-carrier power control apparatus according to the invention is shown in Figure 4. A multi-carrier power control apparatus for base station in a broadband digital mobile communication system according to the embodiment comprises: N digital up-conversion processors 416, a data processor 415, an adder 410, a digital to analog converter 411, a filter 412 and a transmitter 413 with a numerical controlled attenuator. Unlike the embodiment shown in Figure 2, the apparatus according to the present embodiment further comprises N digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, .... The input terminals of N digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ... are respectively connected to the output terminals of the N digital up-conversion processors 404, 405, 406, ..., and the output signals are connected to the adder 408.
N-way baseband signals 401, 402, 403, ...are respectively inputted to the corresponding N digital up-conversion processors 404, 405, 406, ..., and outputted from them to the N digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, .... At the same time, the power control data and the carrier frequency information 414 are sent to the data processor 415 that comprises a control time sequence processor 415a and a slope data processor 415b. The power control data and the carrier frequency information are sent to the control time sequence processor 415a of the data processor. The signals outputted from the control time sequence processor 415a are divided into two ways, the signals of one way are sent to N digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ..., and the signals of the other way are sent to the slope data processor 415b. The signals outputted from the control time sequence processor 415a to the slope data processor 415b are processed by the slope data processor and also two ways of signals are outputted. The signals of one way are outputted to N digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ..., respectively, and the signals of the other way are outputted to the transmitter 413 with a numerical controlled attenuator to be transmitted by the transmitter.
In this embodiment, the static power level control is separated from the dynamic power level control and the up-down slope control, and singly implemented in the a 2008764479 ® analog domain by the numerical controlled attenuator 413. Therefore, total M (M is the number of the dynamic power control levels supported by the base station) up- down slope control curves are required. Furthermore, in fact, the corresponding up- down slope data are locked into the corresponding digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ... by the data processor 415 at proper timing by using a method of time division multiplexing based on the received respective carrier power data and the respective carrier frequency information 414, and an enable is outputted finally to allow the data obtained by multiplying the respective carrier signals to be simultaneously transferred to the adder 410 to be accumulated. If the speed for sending the slope data to the digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ... is too low, the strays will be introduced, so a certain speed is required for sending the slope data . Sending the slope data with high speed can be realized through outputting directly from RAM or using an interpolation filtering method, the digital multipliers 407, 408, 409, ...with high speed can be made by using dedicated chips or FPGAs. The digital up-conversion processors 404, 405, 406, ... are universal digital up-conversion processors.
The open-loop power control according to the present embodiment comprises the steps as follows.
In the first step, the power control data and the carrier frequency information are received by the data processor 415, so as to the dynamic control data, the up-down slope control data and the corresponding static control data 417 for each carrier frequency can be generated.
In the second step, the generated dynamic control data and the up-down slope control data for each carrier frequency are transferred from the data processor 415 to the corresponding multiplier modules 407, 408, 409, ..., and the dynamic power level control and the slope power control are implemented by the multiplier modules 407, 408, 409, ....
In the third step, the multi-way synthesized multi-carrier signal 416 is obtained in the adder 410 through summing the signals outputted from the multiplier modules 407, 408, 409, ....
In the fourth step, after the multi-carrier signal 416 is sent to the numerical controlled attenuator 413 through the DAC module 411 and the filter module 412, the static power control is implemented in the numerical controlled attenuator 413,
® wherein, the static power level data 417 are generated by the data processor 415 and transferred to the numerical controlled attenuator 413.
The power control method according to the invention has the following features. 1. The dynamic power control and the up-down slope control are implemented for each carrier before multi-way synthesizing, and the slope curves with different levels can be set based on the practical requirement, the transition of the up-down slope curves is smooth during the power level switching process. 2. The static power level control not only can be implemented together with the dynamic power level control and the up-down slope control in the digital domain, but also can be implemented in the radio frequency domain by the numerical controlled attenuator. 3. The power control for the respective carriers is independent of each other, so that the transmitting power of any carrier at any time slot can be varied flexibly and easily with the invention. 4. The up-down slope power control is implemented by the digital multiplier under the control of the data processor; the problem of non-linearity does not exist in the digital multiplier, so the control accuracy is rather high. 5. The linearity requirement of the broadband transmitting channel can be decreased through performing a method for pre-distortion processing the up-down slope curves in advance.
