Background
LTE is an evolution of the Third Generation (3G) mobile communication system, and core technologies such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology and Multiple-Input Multiple-output (MIMO) technology are used as quasi 4G technologies. The LTE system can provide the peak rates of 100Mbps downlink and 50Mbps uplink under the frequency spectrum bandwidth of 20MHz, can improve the performance of cell edge users, and can improve the cell capacity.
Currently, the LTE system includes TD-LTE and frequency division duplex Long Term evolution (FDD-LTE), and TD-LTE can use the same frequency point for data transmission in uplink and downlink, so that frequency band resources can be saved, and is more favored by researchers.
In the TD-LTE system, one TD-LTE frame is 10ms, and can be divided into two half-frames of 5ms, each half-frame of 5ms can be composed of 5 subframes of 1ms, and each subframe of 1ms has a uniquely identified frame number.
In the prior art, the TD-LTE downlink signal processing process includes the following three stages: a frequency point scanning and Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) detection stage, a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS) detection and Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) reading stage, and a downlink traffic Channel receiving stage; the frequency point scanning is mainly used for scanning the signal power average value, the power maximum value and the power minimum value in the main diversity antenna and checking interference signals, the PSS detects and determines the position of a PSS symbol in the TD-LTE half frame length through checking the interference signals, and at the moment, the UE can know 5ms synchronization information; SSS detection is used for determining the position of an SSS symbol in a frame length, at the moment, the UE can know 10ms synchronization information, and meanwhile, the PBCH can read TD-LTE frame number synchronization information; the 5ms synchronization information, the 10ms synchronization information and the frame number synchronization information are integrated into TD-LTE downlink synchronization information, and the frame synchronization information enables User Equipment (UE) to smoothly receive a signal issued by a base station through a downlink traffic channel.
In the three stages, the signals transmitted by the base station are processed layer by layer, so that the interference can be inevitably added, the strength of the signals is further weakened, and a certain power control method is introduced in the three stages for ensuring that the signals transmitted by the base station can successfully reach the UE. In the prior art, the conventional means is to introduce the same power control method into each stage respectively to ensure the stability of the signal strength, but neglects the characteristics of the environment where the signals of the three stages are located, so that it is not flexible to apply the same power control method to the three different stages, and thus a power control method which can be flexibly applied to the three stages is urgently needed.

Detailed Description
The invention provides a TD-LTE automatic gain control method, which comprises the following steps:
calculating the average power of corresponding symbols in each TD-LTE frame by taking the frame length as a unit in a frequency point scanning stage and a PSS detection stage, taking the half frame length as a unit in a SSS detection stage and a PBCH reading stage and taking the subframe length as a unit in a downlink service channel receiving stage respectively; and respectively comparing the average power with the upper power limit and/or the lower power limit, the first target power value and the second target power value to obtain the most reasonable power gain control value of each stage.
Here, the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stage calculates the average power of each symbol of each TD-LTE frame; the SSS detection and PBCH reading stage calculates the average power of a PSS symbol and an SSS symbol in each TD-LTE half frame; the average power of RS symbols in each TD-LTE subframe is calculated in the downlink traffic channel receiving phase.
As shown in fig. 1, the method specifically includes step 10, step 20, and step 30:
step 10: calculating the average power value of each symbol of the current TD-LTE frame by taking the length of the 10ms frame as a unit, determining the maximum average power value, comparing the calculated maximum average power value with the upper power limit and/or the lower power limit, and outputting the power gain control value of the current TD-LTE frame at the current stage to an SSS detection stage and a PBCH reading stage or processing the next TD-LTE frame according to the comparison result;
here, the frame length of 10ms is taken as a unit aiming at the environmental characteristics of the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stages;
specifically, for the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stages, the current UE does not acquire any synchronization information, so that the uplink and downlink signals in the whole cell may be used as average power estimation by the current UE within a TD-LTE frame length, i.e., 10 ms. Then, a statistical AGC method is used to obtain better power gain control for the environmental characteristics of this stage.
Currently, a UE receives a radio frequency circuit signal, where the radio frequency circuit includes a power amplifier, an Analog Digital Converter (ADC), a radio frequency chip, and the like; wherein, the radio frequency chip manufacturer already marks the applicable power gain range of the radio frequency chip when the radio frequency chip leaves the factory: from the minimum gain value G _ min to the maximum gain value G _ max; the power gain range is different according to different models of radio frequency chips and different according to different manufacturers.
As shown in fig. 2, the specific processing procedure of step 10 may be:
averagely dividing a power gain range M marked by a radio frequency chip into N subsections, wherein the average power gain of each subsection is M/N (db), and M/N (db) is taken as the variation of the average power gain, wherein N is a positive integer;
here, assuming that the number of all TD-LTE frames currently received by the UE is i, where i is a positive integer, all the received TD-LTE frames may be arranged as a first frame, a second frame.. an ith frame;
processing a first frame, and updating an initial power gain value A _ G (1) of the first frame to be a value of a minimum gain value G _ min;
substituting a first frame power gain initial value A _ G (1) into an average power value calculation method in the prior art, and calculating the average power value of each symbol within the length of a first frame;
comparing the average power value of each symbol within the length of the first frame, and finding out the maximum average power value as the maximum average power value of the first frame;
comparing the maximum average power value of the first frame with the upper power limit PmaxlimWhen the maximum average power value of the first frame is larger than the upper power limit PmaxlimWhen the frame is processed, updating the first frame initial power gain value a _ G (2) to a _ G (1) + M/N as a second frame initial power gain value, and entering the second frame processing; when the maximum average power value of the first frame is less than the upper power limit PmaxlimThen, the maximum average power value of the first frame is compared with the lower power limit PminlimThe size of (d);
when the maximum average power value of the first frame is less than the lower power limit PminlimWhen the frame is processed, updating the first frame initial power gain value A _ G (2) to A _ G (1) -M/N as a second frame initial power gain value, and entering the second frame processing; when the maximum average power value of the first frame is larger than the lower power limit PminlimOutputting a first frame initial power gain value A _ G (1) to an SSS detection and PBCH reading stage as a power gain control value result1 output by the first frame in a frequency point scanning and PSS detection stage;
the entering processing the second frame may specifically be:
substituting a second frame power gain initial value A _ G (2) into an average power value calculation method in the prior art to calculate the average power value of each symbol within the length of a second frame;
comparing the average power value of each symbol in the length of the second frame and finding out the maximum average power value as the maximum average power value of the second frame;
comparing the maximum average power value of the second frame with the upper power limit PmaxlimWhen the maximum average power value of the second frame is larger than the upper power limit PmaxlimWhen the frame is processed, updating the second frame initial power gain value a _ G (3) to a _ G (2) + M/N as a third frame initial power gain value, and entering into processing a third frame; when the maximum average power value of the second frame is less than the upper power limit PmaxlimThen, the maximum average power value of the second frame is compared with the lower power limit PminlimThe size of (d);
when the maximum average power value of the second frame is less than the lower power limit PminlimWhen the frame is processed, updating the second frame initial power gain value A _ G (3) to A _ G (2) -M/N as a third frame initial power gain value, and entering into the third frame processing; when the maximum average power value of the second frame is larger than the lower power limit PminlimThen, outputting a second frame initial power gain value A _ G (2) as a power gain control value result1 output by the second frame in the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stages;
the specific process of entering the third frame processing is similar to the implementation process of entering the second frame processing, and so on, until all frames received by the current UE are processed.
In step 10, the upper power limit PmaxlimLower power limit PminlimPresetting; the upper power limit P for different framesmaxlimLower power limit PminlimThe same value or different values can be adopted;
wherein the upper power limit PmaxlimHas a value range of 10log10 (2)m) +15(db), workLower limit of rate PminlimThe value range is 10log10 (2)m) -15(db), m being the bit width of the ADC device; the bit width of the ADC device has been indicated as a bit width range when the ADC device was shipped.
In addition, the value range of the parameter N is 3-6, and the parameter N can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual environment (such as an external field test); when the actual environment requires faster convergence and the requirement on the gain precision range is not high, N can be taken as a smaller value; on the contrary, N can be taken as a relatively large value; because the frame is processed in the stage, the filtering processing is not required to be performed by a loop filter circuit after the average power value of each symbol in each frame length is calculated in the stage.
It has been described above that, after the frequency point scanning and PSS detection phases are finished, the position of the PSS symbol in the TD-LTE half-frame length is determined, that is, the half-frame synchronization is determined, that is, the UE knows the 5ms synchronization information at this time, and in the SSS detection and PBCH reading phases, the 5ms synchronization information is fully utilized to perform the automatic gain control in the SSS detection and PBCH reading phases.
Step 20: receiving a power gain control value, calculating the average power values of a PSS symbol and a SSS symbol of a current half frame by taking the 5ms half frame length of a TD-LTE frame as a unit, comparing the calculated average power values of the PSS symbol and the SSS symbol of the current half frame with a first target power value, updating and outputting the power gain control value of the current half frame at the current stage to a downlink service channel receiving stage according to the comparison result, and simultaneously processing the next half frame or processing the next half frame;
here, regarding the environmental characteristics of the PSS detection and PBCH reading stage, the 5ms half frame length of the TD-LTE frame is taken as a unit;
it can be seen from the above scheme that the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stage is performed for 10ms of a TD-LTE frame, and after the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stage is finished, the current UE already knows 5ms of synchronization information, i.e. half frame synchronization information, and determines the signal time window of the PSS symbol; then, in SSS detection, the signal time window of the SSS symbol can be determined;
here, the signal time window of the PSS symbol and the SSS symbol can be seen as two points on the time axis, namely: the positions of the PSS symbol and the SSS symbol in the TD-LTE half frame length are determined, and the PSS symbol and the SSS symbol in the half frame length can be extracted; therefore, the processing is mainly performed according to the TD-LTE half frame length in the stage; here, the current 10ms TD-LTE frame is divided into a first field and a second field, both of which are 5ms long.
As shown in fig. 3, the specific processing procedure of step 20 may be:
receiving result1 output in the frequency point scanning and PSS detection stages as an initial power gain value in the stage;
for a TD-LTE system, firstly, result1 is used as an initial power gain value of a first subframe at the stage, after a PSS symbol and an SSS symbol of a first half frame of a current TD-LTE frame of 10ms are extracted, the average power of the PSS symbol and the SSS symbol of the first half frame in a frequency domain is calculated by using the prior art, and is accumulated and averaged for a plurality of times, and is filtered by a loop filter circuit so as to filter noise, wherein the obtained result is a first half frame average power value p 1;
judging whether the first half frame average power value p1 is equal to the first Target power value Target, and when p1 is equal to Target, taking result1 as a second half frame initial power gain value to enter the processing of the second half frame of the TD-LTE frame of the current t0 ms; when p1 is not equal to Target, updating a power gain control value result2 of the first field at the stage to result1+ (Target-p1), outputting result2 to a downlink traffic channel receiving stage, and entering the process of the second field of the current TD-LTE frame of 10ms by taking result2 as the initial power gain value of the second field;
the entering of the processing of the second half frame of the current TD-LTE frame of 10ms specifically comprises: extracting a PSS symbol and a SSS symbol of a second half frame of the current TD-LTE frame of 10ms, and calculating a second half frame average power value p2 by utilizing the prior art; then, judging whether the second field average power value p2 is equal to the Target power value Target, and entering a first field of a next TD-LTE frame when p2 is equal to the Target; when p2 is not equal to Target, updating the power gain control value result2 of the second field at this stage (p _ old + (Target-p2) and outputting result2 to the downlink traffic channel receiving stage;
here, when the condition from "when p1 is not equal to Target" is satisfied and executed until this time, then p _ old is assumed to be result 2; when the condition from "when p1 equals Target" is satisfied, then p _ old is taken to result 1;
and repeating the steps until all the half frames received by the current UE are processed.
Here, the value of the first Target power value Target is designed according to the bit width m of the ADC device actually selected in the TD-LTE system and the risk of saturation in the case of large noise/interference, and usually the Target is 2m
Meanwhile, as the phase is processed aiming at the TD-LTE field, the field time is short, and a relatively large loop filter coefficient needs to be preset in a loop filter circuit to ensure the quick convergence of field symbols.
In this description, in the technical solution of the present invention, all values related to the loop filter coefficient are in a range of 0.04 to 0.5.
In addition, when the description of step 20 is performed, mainly taking the TD-LTE system with the bandwidth of 1.4M as an example, the technical solution of the present invention includes, but is not limited to, the TD-LTE system with the bandwidth of 1.4M, and may also be applied to TD-LTE systems with other bandwidths, such as TD-LTE systems with bandwidths of 10M, 15M, and 20M, and the like.
Step 30: receiving a power gain control value, calculating the RS symbol average power value of the current subframe by taking the 1ms subframe length of the TD-LTE frame as a unit, comparing the calculated RS symbol average power value of the current subframe with a second target power value, updating the power gain control value of the current subframe at the current stage according to the comparison result, and informing the current UE or processing the next subframe;

here, the current 5ms TD-LTE half frame is divided into a first subframe, a second subframe, a third subframe, a fourth subframe, and a fifth subframe, each of which is 1ms long.
Since the SSS detection and PBCH reading phase are different from the bandwidth of the current phase, the current phase is exemplified by a TD-LTE system with 20M bandwidth, because the power and the bandwidth are in a direct proportion relationship, that is, as the bandwidth increases, the power is correspondingly increased. In order to achieve better connection between the SSS detection and PBCH reading phases and this phase, the power gain control value result2 sent from the SSS detection and PBCH reading phases needs to be processed with variable bandwidth first.

wherein, the processing of the second subframe may specifically be: extracting the RS symbol of a second subframe of the current 5ms TD-LTE field, calculating the average power of the RS symbol of the second subframe in a frequency domain by using the prior art, and performing loop filtering by using a loop filtering circuit so as to filter noise, wherein the obtained result is the average power value M _ p2 of the second subframe;
judging whether the average power value M _ p2 of the second subframe is equal to the second target power value Tar, and when M _ p2 is equal to Tar, processing a third subframe by taking result2_ new as the initial power gain value of the second subframe; when the M _ p2 is not equal to Tar, updating the power gain control value result3 ═ Y + (Tar-M _ p2) of the second subframe at this stage, notifying the current UE of the value of result3, and processing the third subframe by taking result3 as the initial power gain value of the third subframe;
here, when the condition of "M _ p1 being equal to Tar" is satisfied until this time, Y ═ result2_ new; when the condition from "M _ p1 not equal to Tar" holds true until this time, Y ═ result 3;

the third processing sub-module 520 substitutes result2_ new into the average power calculation method in the prior art to calculate the average power of the RS symbol of the first subframe in the frequency domain, and then the third processing sub-module 520 sends the calculated average power to the loop filter circuit 53, and after filtering by the loop filter circuit 53, returns the average power to the third processing sub-module 520, where the returned average power value is the average power value M _ p1 of the first subframe;
next, the third sub-module 520 determines whether the first sub-frame average power value M _ p1 is equal to the second target power value Tar,
when M _ p1 is equal to Tar, the third processing submodule 520 starts to process the second subframe with result2_ new as the initial power gain value of the second subframe;
when M _ p1 is not equal to Tar, the third update output sub-module 521 updates the first subframe power gain control value result3 ═ result2_ new + (Tar-M _ p1) and informs the current UE of result 3; with result3 as the initial power gain value of the second field, the third update output sub-module 521 notifies the third processing sub-module 520 to enter into the second sub-frame processing;
after the third processing sub-module 520 receives the notification (with result3 as the second field initial power gain value) or identifies itself (with result2_ new as the second field initial power gain value) that the next subframe processing is required, the third processing sub-module starts to process the second subframe in combination with the third update output sub-module 521:
the third processing sub-module 520 calculates the average power of the RS symbol of the second subframe in the frequency domain according to the average power calculation method in the prior art, and then the third processing sub-module 520 sends the calculated average power to the loop filter circuit 53, and after filtering by the loop filter circuit 53, returns the average power to the third processing sub-module 520, where the returned average power value is the average power value M _ p1 of the second subframe;
next, the third sub-module 520 determines whether the second sub-frame average power value M _ p2 is equal to the second target power value Tar,
when M _ p2 is equal to Tar, the third processing sub-module 520 starts to process the third sub-frame with result2_ new as the initial power gain value of the third sub-frame;
when M _ p2 is not equal to Tar, the third update output sub-module 521 updates the second subframe power gain control value result3 ═ Y + (Tar-M _ p2) and informs the current UE of result 3; the third update output sub-module 521 notifies the third processing sub-module 520 to enter into processing of a third sub-frame;
here, when the condition of "M _ p1 being equal to Tar" is satisfied until this time, Y ═ result2_ new; when the condition from "M _ p1 not equal to Tar" holds true until this time 1, Y ═ result 3;
