Fig. 1 shows the frame structure 100 of example TDD system.
As shown in fig. 1, frame 101 comprises down link (DL) subframe 103, TTG 105 and up link (UL) subframe 107.Frame 101 illustrates the major part of TDD system respectively, the time slot between downlink transmission, downlink transmission and the ul transmissions.Frame structure 100 is used for proposed IEEE 802.22 radio area networks (WRAN) [1], also is used for IEEE802.16.d and IEEE 802.16.e standard.
Yet, the time corresponding gap is also arranged between ul transmissions and downlink transmission, this time slot does not illustrate in Fig. 1.For proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN, this time slot is called reception-transmission change gap (RTG).
Fig. 2 shows the diagram of the transmission course of example TDD system.
In this diagram, use IEEE 802.22 WRAN that propose as example, the sub-district in the WRAN network comprises 201 and 2 customer premises equipment, CPEs in base station (BS) (CPE) i.e. first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203 and second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 205.First customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203 is geographically than second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2), 205 more close base stations (BS) 201.
When the transmission during downlink subframe 207 is carried out in base station 201, before arriving first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203, need some times.This time is commonly referred to propagation delay.Because first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203 is than second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2), 205 more close base stations 201, so, to the propagation delay T of first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203 PD1209 than the propagation delay T to second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 205 PD2211 and Yan Gengxiao.
When the transmission during the downlink subframe 207 is final when arriving second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 205, before switching to sending mode from receiving mode, second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 205 is waited for section T blink DS2213 to guarantee to finish the reception to the transmission during the downlink subframe 207.The time representation of finishing this handoff procedure and needing is T SSRTG215.Then, carry out at the transmission during the uplink sub-frames of second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) to base station BS 201, it is expressed as UL2 217.After time period transmission, that be expressed as TTG219 of downlink subframe 207, at the 217 final base station BSs 201 that arrive of the transmission UL2 during the uplink sub-frames of second customer premises equipment, CPE, wherein TTG is transmission-time of reception gap.
Base station BS 201 receiving uplinks transmission UL1,2221, ul transmissions UL1 wherein, 2221 comprise ul transmissions UL1 223 and ul transmissions UL2 217.Both arrive BS 201 simultaneously ul transmissions UL1 223 and UL2 217, so they are synchronously, but Comparatively speaking ul transmissions UL1 223 transmits on different frequency channels with ul transmissions UL2 217.
Thus as can be seen, at first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203: considering corresponding stand-by period T DS2225 and corresponding switching time T SSRTGAfter 227, there was " freedom " time 229 of a great deal of before transmit uplink transmission UL1 223.It can also be seen that when the geographic distance between first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 203 and base station BS 201 was nearer, this " freedom " time 229 was bigger.
Fig. 3 shows the communication system 300 according to the embodiment of the invention.
Communication system 300 comprises communication system cell 301, and this communication system cell comprises base station (BS) 303,305, second first communication equipments of first communication equipment (CD1) (CD2) 307 and the 3rd first communication equipment (CD3) 309.
Communication system 300 can be represented IEEE 802.22 radio area networks (WRAN) [1] of proposal, and it is the example of other communication service of operating based on suitable machine spectrum access (opportunistic spectrum access) notion.Proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN are operated in and divide in the very high frequency(VHF) (VHF) and hyperfrequency (UHF) frequency range (between 47MHz and 910MHz) that is used in TV broadcasting and the 74th part wireless microphone equipment.
For fear of causing to TV broadcasting with to the interference of the 74th equipment component, WRAN equipment such as base station (BS) and customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE) must carry out the reliability detection to the communication service of being responsible for when the availability of definite frequency range that they are worked.
Thus, communication equipment (CD1 305, CD2 307 and CD3 309) can be customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE).
Fig. 4 shows the diagram according to the transmission course of the TDD system of the embodiment of the invention.
Be similar to Fig. 2, in this diagram, use IEEE 802.22 WRAN that propose as example, the sub-district in the WRAN network comprises 401 and 2 customer premises equipment, CPEs in base station (BS) (CPE) i.e. first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 and second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 405.First customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 is geographically than second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2), 405 more close base stations (BS) 401.As the another diagram of using Fig. 3, first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 can be the first communication equipment CD1 305 or second communication equipment CD2307, and second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 405 can be the 3rd communication equipment CD3 309.
When the transmission during downlink subframe 407 is carried out in base station 401, because propagation delay needed some times before arriving first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403.Because first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 is than second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2), 405 more close base stations 401, so, to the propagation delay T of first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 PD1409 than the propagation delay T to second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 405 PD2411 and Yan Gengxiao.
When the transmission during the downlink subframe 407 is final when arriving second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 405, before switching to sending mode from receiving mode, second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) 405 is waited for section T blink DS2413 to guarantee to finish the reception to the transmission during the downlink subframe 407.Finishing the needed time representation of this handoff procedure is T SSRTG415.Then, be used for the transmission during the uplink sub-frames of second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) to base station BS 401, it is expressed as UL2 417.After time period transmission, that be expressed as TTG419 of downlink subframe 407, the transmission UL2 417 final base station BSs 401 that arrive during the uplink sub-frames that is used for second customer premises equipment, CPE, wherein TTG is transmission-time of reception gap.
Be different from Fig. 2, in this case, owing to arranged, a large amount of " freedom " time (comprise be expressed as time interval of 429 and 431 with) between receiving downlink transmission and beginning ul transmissions so first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 begins its ul transmissions in early days.As can be seen, when the geographic distance between first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 and base station BS 401 is nearer, this " freedom " time will be bigger.
Utilize early stage transmission, first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 transmits the first that is expressed as UL1-1 431 of its ul transmissions earlier.Correspondingly, the second portion of its ul transmissions is expressed as UL1-2 423.
The first receiving uplinks transmission of base station BS 401 UL1-1 431 then are ul transmissions UL1,2 421, and ul transmissions UL1 wherein, 2 421 comprise ul transmissions UL1-2 423 and ul transmissions UL2 417.Be similar to Fig. 2, ul transmissions UL1-2 423 and UL2417 arrive BS 401 simultaneously, thereby they are synchronous, but compare with ul transmissions UL2417, and ul transmissions UL1-2 423 transmits on different frequency channels.
For first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 earlier begins its ul transmissions, satisfy several requirements in this embodiment.At first, require base station BS 401 to know first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE) 403 transmission more early.Otherwise base station BS 401 may this early stage transmission of unripe reception.Therefore, exchange of control information before transmitting in early days.
Secondly, make its second portion UL1-2 423 of ul transmissions synchronous, make the beginning of second portion UL1-2 423 of the beginning of normal transmission (for example ul transmissions UL2 417) and its ul transmissions almost arrive base station BS 401 simultaneously.This requirement needs, so that keep existing frame boundaries.
The 3rd, have only first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 fully just to transmit in early days near base station BS 401, the first customer premises equipment, CPEs (CPE1) 403.Thus, as first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 during very close to base station 401 BS, if it is the system requirements of pre-sizing that the first of ul transmissions is arranged, then might first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 can transmit first more than one ul transmissions.On the other hand, if not having the first of ul transmissions is the system requirements of pre-sizing, then when first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) the 403 bigger first that first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) 403 can the transmit uplink transmission during very close to base station BS 401.
For example, at proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN[1 that use OFDM (OFDMA) as multiple access technology] in, the first that ul transmissions is arranged is the system requirements of the multiple of OFDMA symbol.Therefore, in this case, possible first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1), 403 transmission are more than the first of one ul transmissions, and wherein the size of the first of ul transmissions is fixed as an OFDMA symbol.
Contrast with early stage ul transmissions, also might implement " later stage (late) " ul transmissions scheme.Can be used for transmitting for example control information or in order to improve the pilot tone of channel estimating from the time that " later stage " ul transmissions obtains.
The later stage ul transmissions also can be used for increasing the size of first data division.For example, use the diagram among Fig. 4, can on CPE2 (405), apply the later stage ul transmissions so that increase the size of the early stage ul transmissions part of CPE1 (403).
Fig. 5 shows the frame structure 500 according to the TDD system of the embodiment of the invention.
Be similar to Fig. 1, in this diagram, frame 501 comprises down link (DL) subframe 503, transmission-reception change gap (TTG) 505 (being expressed as TTG2,3,4,5,6,7) and up link (UL) subframe 507.Frame 501 illustrates the major part of TDD system respectively, downlink transmission, the time slot between downlink transmission and ul transmissions.
Yet, also having the time corresponding gap between ul transmissions and downlink transmission, it is not shown in Fig. 5.For proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN, this time slot is called reception-transmission change gap (RTG).
In this embodiment, frame structure 500 is used to have the proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN sub-districts of base station BS and 7 customer premises equipment, CPE CPE.For example, the burst in downlink subframe 509 (brust) 1 is and the relevant transmission of first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) that wherein the burst 1 in the uplink sub-frames 511 is early stage ul transmissions with burst 1 in uplink sub-frames 511.Correspondingly, the transmission-reception change gap TTG that is used for first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) is that TTG1 513 is TTG2 for the transmission that is used for other customer premises equipment, CPE CPE-reception change gap TTG, 3,4,5,6, and 7505 is shorter.
Fig. 6 shows another frame structure 600 according to the TDD system of the embodiment of the invention.
In this diagram, the item that is labeled as 600-613 corresponds respectively to the item that is labeled as 500-513 among Fig. 5.Yet in this embodiment, early stage ul transmissions is shared by burst 1,2 611, that is, and and the combination of the ul transmissions of the ul transmissions of first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) and second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2).In this case, for example, the ul transmissions of first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1) can be used some frequency channels and the ul transmissions of second customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE2) can be used not other frequency channels that is used by first customer premises equipment, CPE (CPE1).Correspondingly, TTG4,5,6,7 405 is the transmission-reception change gap TTG that are used for customer premises equipment, CPE CPE 4,5,6 and 7, and TTG1, the 2nd, be used for transmission-reception change gap TTG of customer premises equipment, CPE CPE 1 and CPE 2.
Fig. 7 shows the parameter list 700 that uses in the transmission course according to the TDD system of the embodiment of the invention.These parameters obtain at several distortion of proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN that use OFDMA.As seen, free time T IDLE701 for all parameter sets always greater than OFDMA symbol time T OFDMA703.This means for proposed IEEE802.22 WRAN, even still always may allow early stage ul transmissions sub-district with full-size 33km radius.For free time T is described IDLE701 can be by 229 expressions of the item among Fig. 2.
Fig. 8 shows the diagram that changes according to frame structure in the TDD system of the embodiment of the invention.Under the situation of proposed IEEE 802.22 WRAN, the amount that length that also might be by reducing Cyclic Prefix (CP) and fast Fourier transform (FFT) size be increased in the free time that is used near customer premises equipment, CPE CPE of using in the transmission.This is because therefore near the shorter delay transit of customer premises equipment, CPE CPE experience need not long loop prefix CP.Chart 801 shows normal condition, and chart 803 shows the length of Cyclic Prefix (CP) and the situation that the fast Fourier transform (FFT) size has reduced.
