In this step, described is prior art by several stronger multipath signals of Multipath searching module select-out signal intensity from all multipath signals;
Step 23, the allotment module in RAKE receiver arranges relevant parameter according to the multipath signal receiving;
Described parameter comprises: state flag bit RAKE_Run_Flag, and for describing the in running order or idle condition of demodulating unit, in the present invention, use RAKE_Run_Flag=1 to represent operating state, RAKE_Run_Flag=0 represents idle condition; Multipath number Finger_Num, for describing the number of described multipath signal; Multipath delay value Finger_Delay, for describing the allotment multipath signal the earliest that receives of module and the time between multipath signal poor the latest; Signal identification UE_ID, for describing the source of described multipath signal; Merge parameter UE_Comb_Flag, be used for describing described multipath signal and whether need to carry out many RAKE data merging processing, in the present invention, use UE_Comb_Flag=1 to represent to carry out many RAKE data and merge processing, UE_Comb_Flag=0 represents not need to carry out many RAKE data and merges processing; Demodulator RAKE sequence number RAKE_Comb_Index, for describing the sequencing of called demodulating unit; Time delay merges parameters R AKE_Delay_Comb_Flag, be used for describing multipath signal and whether need to carry out time delay merging processing, in the present invention, use RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=1 to represent to carry out time delay and merge processing, RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=0 represents that not needing to carry out time delay merges processing, i.e. non-time delay merges to be processed; Merge just parameter and comprise that merging parameter and time delay merge parameter;
Arranging of described parameter can also have various ways, is not limited to mode described above;
As shown in Figure 4, a RAKE demodulator comprises several Finge demodulating units and a high specific merge cells, referring to Fig. 2, what each Finge demodulating unit completed is operating as the operation that Finger demodulating unit in prior art, synchronous tracking module, channel estimation module and DPCCH despreading module are carried out; And a Finge demodulating unit carries out multipath signal processing to a multipath signal; Described high specific merge cells merges multipath signal after treatment to obtain high specific merging (Max Ratio Combination, MRC) data, i.e. multipath MRC data; In a RAKE demodulator, comprise K Finge demodulating unit, K value is arranged according to actual needs by operating personnel, and K is multi-path demodulation unit number;
In this step, allocate module and select the one in following three kinds of operations according to the multipath number of the multipath signal receiving and multipath delay value:
The first, in the time that the multipath number Finger_Num of the multipath signal that receives of allotment module is not more than K, i.e. Finger_Num≤K, and multipath delay value Finger_Delay is while being not more than the multipath delay threshold value H setting in advance, be Finger_Delay≤H, forward step 31 to; Described multipath delay threshold value H is set in advance according to actual needs by operating personnel;
Step 31, due to Finger_Num≤K, therefore allocate definite of module and need call one in the RAKE of idle condition demodulator, and multipath signal is sent to the RAKE demodulator of choosing, every multipath signal is put into arbitrarily a Finger demodulating unit and is carried out the processing of signal multipath signal;
Allocate module simultaneously and carry out other parameter settings: the state flag bit of current RAKE demodulator is set to operating state, be RAKE_Run_Flag=1, it is no merging parameter, i.e. UE_Comb_Flag=0, it is no that time delay merges parameter, i.e. RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=0;
The second, in the time that allotment module judges Finger_Delay>H, according to predefined account form, as the number of the definite RAKE demodulator that need to call of formula (1), from the ratio X of multipath delay value and multipath delay threshold value, and select the value that numerical value is larger, the number of the current demodulating unit calling as needs in the ratio Y of information number and multi-path demodulation unit number;
Figure GDA0000461521460000091
In the time of X >=Y, get RAKE_Num=X; In the time of X<Y, get RAKE=Y; Formula (1) obtaining value method is value upwards; Forward step 32 to;
Step 32, allotment module is called arbitrarily the RAKE demodulator that RAKE_Num state flag bit is idle condition, and the RAKE sequence number RAKE_Comb_Index of RAKE demodulator is set according to the sequencing calling, RAKE_Comb_Index=n, { n=0,1,2 ..., RAKE_Num-1}; Relevant parameter is set is: merge parameter for being to be UE_Comb_Flag=1, it is yes that time delay merges parameter, i.e. RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=1;
Step 33, by multipath signal according to the sequencing obtaining, take the multi-path demodulation unit number RAKE demodulator selected as unit sends to successively, RAKE demodulator is put into arbitrarily Finger demodulating unit by the multipath signal getting again and is carried out multipath signal processing, and a Finger demodulating unit is processed a multipath signal; And the state flag bit of RAKE demodulator is set to operating state, i.e. RAKE_Run_Flag=1;
In second process, in each RAKE demodulator, all Finger demodulating units are sent the multipath signal of handling into high specific merge cells and are merged, and obtain multipath MRC data; Owing to having called RAKE_Num RAKE demodulator, therefore finally obtain RAKE_Num multipath MRC data;
The third, work as Finger_Num>K, and when Finger_Delay≤H, allotment module determines that the number of the demodulating unit that need to call is the ratio of multipath number and multi-path demodulation unit number, and RAKE_Comb_Index=n is set, n=0,1,2 ..., RAKE_Num-1}; And parameter is set to: it is yes merging indication parameter, i.e. UE_Comb_Flag=1, and it is no that time delay merges parameter, i.e. RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=0;
Allotment module successively sends to the RAKE demodulator that called with multi-path demodulation number for unit by the multipath signal receiving, and carries out multipath signal processing and obtains multipath data; And the state flag bit of the RAKE demodulator calling is set to operating state;
In step 23, RAKE demodulator carries out multipath signal processing according to prior art to multipath signal and finally obtains multipath MRC data;
Step 34, multipath MRC data and the parameter relevant to this multipath MRC data are passed to merging module by allotment module; The state flag bit of the RAKE demodulator simultaneously calling is set to idle condition;
When using in step 23 first, in the third scheme, send to the method that merges module to have multiple the multipath MRC data that obtain after RAKE demodulator processes, specifically can comprise: first, allotment module can wait for that a Transmission Time Interval (Transmission Time Interval, TTI) sends to merging module by multipath MRC data afterwards; The second, the multipath MRC data that obtain after processing are directly sent to merging module by RAKE demodulator;
When in first scheme in use step 23, send to the method that merges module to have multiple the multipath MRC data that obtain after RAKE demodulator processes, specifically can comprise: first, allotment module can waited for a Transmission Time Interval (Transmission Time Interval, TTI) afterwards multipath MRC data are sent to data buffer zone, by allotment module, the multipath MRC data in data buffer zone are sent to merging module again, or many through data by merging module active obtaining from data buffer zone; The second, the multipath MRC data that obtain after processing are directly sent to data buffer zone by RAKE demodulator, by allotment module, the multipath MRC data in data buffer zone are sent to merging module again, or many through data by merging module active obtaining from data buffer zone; In the second approach, before merging module obtains multipath MRC data for the first time, guarantee that there are multipath MRC data at least two data buffer zones;
Described TTI can guarantee that RAKE demodulator completes the processing to a TTI multipath signal;
Step 35, merges module and selects the one in following three kinds of processing schemes to carry out union operation according to the parameter getting, and the data after merging are sent, and this step specifically comprises:
The first: get UE_Comb_Flag=0 when merging module, illustrate that the multipath signal that UE_ID is identical has only called single RAKE demodulator, therefore complete the merging processing that does not need to carry out multipath MRC data after demodulation operation, discharge immediately this RAKE demodulator, and RAKE_Run_Flag=0 will be set; Merging module is directly sent to next stage module by the multipath MRC data after demodulation and carries out symbol level processing; Described symbol level is treated to prior art;
The second, gets UE_Comb_Flag=1, RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=1 when merging module; Illustrate that allotment module is that the multipath signal that UE_ID is identical has called multiple RAKE demodulators, therefore need to merge processing; Illustrate that multipath signal has time delay, therefore need to carry out time delay and merge processing; As shown in Figure 5, detailed process is as follows:
Merge module multipath MRC data identical UE_ID are merged to processing, the merging data obtaining is stored in next stage data buffer zone; Whether the current RAKE demodulator sequence number that judgement receives is consistent with maximum RAKE demodulator sequence number, if consistent, merging data is exported, otherwise, described allotment module is sent or RAKE demodulator come or allotment module active obtaining from other data buffer zones, again merge with the merging data in how identical through the UE_ID of the data multipath MRC data that merge and next stage data buffer zone.
The third, when getting UE_Comb_Flag=1, when RAKE_Delay_Comb_Flag=0; Determine that described multipath MRC data that signal identification is identical need to carry out non-time delay and merge and process, the multipath MRC data that UE_ID is identical are carried out non-time delay and are merged and process, and data after treatment are sent.
In this step, in the time selecting the second processing scheme, merge module also can wait until all multipath signals all complete by RAKE demodulator processes, all put into behind data buffer zone, the more all multipath MRC data in data buffer zone are merged; Merging module will finally merge the data obtained again and send;
The data that the embodiment of the present invention provides merge the same prior art of processing method, therefore repeat no more; As shown in Figure 6, the method that adopts the embodiment of the present invention to provide, can receive in real time the signal from many communities, multi-user, many strip antennas, described signal obtains multipath signal after front-end processing module and buffer module, when allotment module receives multipath signal, call RAKE demodulator according to the actual conditions that receive, and manyly merge processing through data according to method of calling by what obtain, and send to symbol level processing module to process and export data after treatment; The same prior art of mode of the symbol level processing module deal with data relating in the present invention.
