Fig. 2 shows the general structures of the transmitter based on MIMO technology.
In fig. 2, one or more code words are mapped to multiple layers.In this case, map information passes through precoding Processing is mapped to each physical antenna, and is then sent via each physical antenna.
Fig. 3 is the detailed diagram for showing the transmitter shown in Fig. 2 based on MIMO.
Term " code word " indicates that the position cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is affixed to data information and then by specific coding side Method encodes.There are a variety of coding methods, for example, Turbo code, tail-biting convolutional code (tail biting convolution code) Deng.Each code word is mapped to one or more layers (that is, one or more virtual levels), and the sum etc. for the layer being mapped In rank value.In other words, if it is 3 to send order, the sum for sending layer is also set to 3.To map to every layer of information into Row precoding.In this case, it maps to every layer of data information (here, physical layer is mapped to by precoding processing Term " layer " indicates actual layer, as long as it specifies physical layer).Information is sent to each day via each physical layer Line.In the case of specified explain is not shown in figure 3, execute precoding in a frequency domain, and OFDM information transmission schemes by with In the information for mapping to physical layer.The information for mapping to physical layer is mapped to specific frequency domain, and then carries out IFFT processing. Later, cyclic prefix (CP) is affixed to IFFT results.Hereafter, information is sent to each via radio frequency (RF) chain (chain) Antenna.
Precoding processing can be executed by matrix multiplication.In each matrix, line number is equal to the quantity of physical layer (that is, quantity of antenna), and columns is equal to rank value.Rank value is equal to the number of plies so that columns is equal to the number of plies.With reference to following equation 2, The information for mapping to layer (that is, virtual level) is x1And x2, each element p of (4 × 2) matrixijIt is the weight for precoding.y1、 y2、y3And y4It is to map to the information of physical layer, and each OFDM transmission scheme is used to be sent via each antenna.
[equation 2]
In the following description, virtual level will hereinafter be referred to as layer, as long as this use is not caused confusion.For will be empty The operation that quasi- layer signal maps to physical layer will hereinafter be referred to as operation for layer to be mapped directly to antenna.
Method for precoding can be broadly divided into two methods, that is, broadband precoding method and subband method for precoding.
Broadband precoding method is as follows.It is identical pre- when executing precoding in a frequency domain according to broadband precoding method Encoder matrix is applied to all information for being sent to frequency domain.
Fig. 4 is the method shown for carrying out precoding to every layer of information and sending precoding information via antenna Schematic diagram.
With reference to figure 4, it can be appreciated that information corresponding with multiple layers is pre-coded, while by the son according to each frequency domain Carrier wave and classify, and precoding information by via each antenna send.For all precodings in broadband precoding method Matrix " P " is equal to each other.
Subband method for precoding is provided by the extension of broadband precoding method.Subband method for precoding prelists a variety of Code matrix application is to each subcarrier, without identical pre-coding matrix is applied to all subcarriers.In other words, according to son Band method for precoding, uses pre-coding matrix " P ", in its remaining sub-carriers other than specific subcarrier in specific subcarrier It is middle to use another pre-coding matrix " M ".Here, the difference of the element value of pre-coding matrix " P " and another pre-coding matrix " M ".
Compared with downlink signal transmissions, uplink signal transmission is to PAPR or CM performance rdativery sensitives.By PAPR Or the increase of the filter cost caused by the raising of CM performances, more serious ask may be generated in user equipment (UE) Topic.To which SC-FDMA schemes are used for uplink signal transmission.
Fig. 5 is the schematic diagram for showing general SC-FDMA schemes.
As shown in figure 5, OFDM schemes and SC-FDMA schemes are considered mutually the same, this is because they all will string Row signal is converted to parallel signal, and parallel signal is mapped to subcarrier, IDFT or IFFT processing is executed to mapping signal, Signal through IDFT or IFFT processing is converted into serial signal, cyclic prefix (CP) is attached to obtained serial signal, And send CP composite signals via radio frequency (RF) module.However, compared with OFDM schemes, SC-FDMA schemes are by parallel signal Serial signal is converted to, and DFT spread spectrums are executed to serial signal so that reduces the shadow of next IDFT or IFFT processing It rings, and individual signals feature is maintained at higher than predetermined grade.
Meanwhile the reason of CM values reduce when MIMO scheme is applied to uplink signal transmission, is as follows.If each The multiple single-carrier signals for all having good CM characteristics are overlapped simultaneously, then overlapped signal may have very poor CM characteristics. Therefore, if SC-FDMA systems use the single-carrier signal or a single-carrier signal of minimum number on single physical antenna Multiple layers of output information is multiplexed, then can generate the transmission signal with good CM.
To code word-layer mapping processing before the information sent is carried out precoding, can be executed.Due to SC-FDMA Scheme is normally used for a transmission mode (1Tx), so the number of plies is 1.However, if SC-FDMA schemes support MIMO scheme, Then the number of plies is plural number, and the code word being made of single transmission block can be mapped to multiple layers.
Fig. 6 is the schematic diagram for showing to map to code word multiple layers of method.
With reference to figure 6, if executing code word-layer mapping, CM values after executing for the DFT processing of SC-FDMA schemes It may increase.That is, due to before entering IFFT modules, the output signal of DFT block is handled by other, that is, due to DFT block Output signal is divided into two layers, so CM values may increase.
Fig. 7 is shown after executing mapping (that is, code word-layer mapping) of the code word to layer to every layer of execution DFT, to prevent The schematic diagram of the increased method of CM values of each antenna.
Therefore, it if the quantity of DFT block is changed, while by according to being classified based on the number of plies of rank value, then can keep Low CM values.That is, the output signal of DFT block is directly input into IFFT block, and without other processing, so that low CM can be kept Value.In the case of actual implementation, multiple layers can share single DFT block.
If by the way that MIMO scheme is applied to uplink signal transmission, multiple layer signals are sent via individual antenna, Then PAPR or CM performances may deteriorate.In order to overcome the above problem, following embodiment of the invention that description prelists for being based on Code matrix carrys out the method for design codebooks, in this way, only sending a layer signal via individual antenna.
For ease of description and the present invention is more fully understood, in Transmission system, it is assumed that be sent to one group of pre-encoded blocks Signal is arranged to " x ", and the signal of one group of precoding is arranged to " y ".In this case, if pre-coding matrix is " P ", then obtain following equation 3.
[equation 3]
Y=Px
In equation 3, the dimension of " P " is NT×NL, the dimension of " x " is NL× 1, the dimension of " y " is NT×1.In this feelings Under condition, NTIt is the quantity of antenna, and NLIt is the number of plies.
In the following description, it will design be applied to described in (I) chapter first and use MIMO by what UE was carried out The principle of the code book of the uplink signal transmission of scheme, and the then long form of the code book described in (II) chapter.
I. the principle of codebook design
<2Tx code books>
A variety of realities of the structure of included pre-coding matrix in the code book that basis explained below uses under 2Tx patterns Apply example.
Include according to the method for the embodiment of the present invention:By the way that codebook mapping is generated multiple streams to multiple layers;And it is right The stream generated carries out precoding, the stream after precoding is mapped to mutiple antennas, and the result of mapping is sent via antenna. In this case, code book can be according to following configuration.The pre-coding matrix that is used in order 1 and what is used in order 2 prelist Code matrix will describe in different ways.
1 pre-coding matrix of 2Tx- orders
In the case of 2Tx- orders 1, equation 3 can be rewritten as following equation 4 according to the ... of the embodiment of the present invention.
[equation 4]
In general, if it is assumed that using broadband precoding scheme, then according to 1 pre-coding scheme of order, specific constant value is multiplied by often PAPR the and CM values of the signal of layer, the signal sent via each antenna under 2Tx patterns are equal under 1Tx patterns.Therefore, When using broadband precoding, PAPR and CM are not influenced by the value of 1 pre-coding matrix of 2Tx- orders.
Precoding is for changing channel to obtain the influence of the structure between the signal transmitted via each channel The method of (constructive effect).Therefore, improve the sending performance of each signal.Therefore, it indicates shown in equation 4 " a " of the first element of pre-coding matrix P is arranged to " 1 ", and the second element " b " of pre-coding matrix P can be set For arbitrary value.Signal via the transmission of each antenna has equal-wattage so that all power being included in each antenna are put Big device can be used to the maximum extent.For this purpose, above-mentioned second element " b " can be have absolute value be 1 plural number.It changes Sentence is talked about, and P shown in equation 4 can be byIt indicates.

In the case of 2Tx- orders 2, equation 3 can be rewritten as following equation 5.
[equation 5]
In equation 5, via the signal y of each antenna transmissionkBy multiple input signal xiCombination constitute so that CM Value can increase.
In this case, if p12And p21Each of be arranged to zero " 0 ", or if p11And p22In it is every It is a to be all set to " 0 ", then it can only be sent via each antenna there are one signal.Therefore, if it is assumed that signal xiCM values It is considered fine, then the CM values of precoded signal also become fine.About Fig. 7, in the case where code word is mapped to each layer, DFT spread spectrum applications are mapped into each layer of signal to obtained, and executing allows each antenna only to send a layer letter Number precoding processing, can obtain and execute IDFT that DFT processing is carried out or IFFT with one and handle identical effect, and PAPR or CM characteristics can be maintained at kilter.It will explain its detailed description in the following description below.
In this case, if p12And p21Each of be arranged to zero " 0 ", then multiplication by constants complex values it Afterwards, signal corresponding with each layer is sent via each antenna.As a result, although above-mentioned constant complex values are arranged to 1, property It can not be influenced by the constant complex values 1.

In the case of 4Tx- orders 2, equation 3 can be rewritten as following equation 8.
[equation 8]
In 2 code book of 4Tx- orders, in a manner of similar with 2 code book of 2Tx- orders, the element-specific of pre-coding matrix is set It is zero " 0 ", so that the overlapping of the signal sent via each antenna is minimized, to which CM may remain in low value.
In equation 8, if it is assumed that the signal (p sent via each antennak1x1+pk2x2) in pk1Or pk2It is set It is zero " 0 ", then the signal sent via each antenna becomes equal to the signal sent from single layer, therefore is sent out via each antenna The CM of the signal sent may remain in low value.
In one embodiment of the invention, being included in " P " in equation 8 can be byIt indicates.Equation 8 It can be rewritten as following equation 9.
[equation 9]
With reference to equation 9, only the signal sent via each antenna is mapped to there are one layer.From the point of view of single layer, Think that 1 precoding of 2Tx- orders is applied to the information sent via the single layer.It is thus possible to use 2 precoding square of 2Tx- orders 2 pre-coding matrix of battle array configuration 4Tx- orders.In other words, 2 pre-coding matrix of 4Tx- orders can be the super of 1 pre-coding matrix of 2Tx- orders Matrix (super matrix).
For example, " P " according to an embodiment of the invention can be indicated by equation 10.
[equation 10]
Above-mentioned 1 pre-coding matrix of 2Tx- orders is used by sends information by two antenna applications to single layer signal Method.However, if it is assumed that there are four physical antennas, then communication performance may be according to which kind of combination quilt of two antennas compositions Change for data transmission.In this case, the selected combination of antenna can change according to the value of pre-coding matrix P.
For example, according to one embodiment of present invention, pre-coding matrix P can be configured as multiple format.Each format It can indicate different antenna combinations.
[equation 11]
In equation 11, value if appropriate is selected as pre-coding matrix P, then can improve due to precoding and lead The performance improvement of cause.If pre-coding matrix is as above configured, signal corresponding with each layer uses in four antennas of total Two antennas, the channel estimating performance among each layer becomes similar to each other, and can be by for the CM values of each antenna It minimizes.
Although in general, constant value to be multiplied by the specific column vector of arbitrary pre-coding matrix, the feature of pre-coding matrix Do not change.Therefore, although constant value to be multiplied by the particular column of above-mentioned pre-coding matrix, the feature of pre-coding matrix does not change Become.As a result, the aforesaid operations of the specific column vector for constant value to be multiplied by pre-coding matrix are without departing from the scope of the present invention.

In equation 13, if it is assumed that the signal p sent via each antennak1x1+pk2x2+pk3x3) in pk1、pk2Or pk3It is arranged to " 0 ", then the CM of the signal sent via each antenna may remain in low value.
In one embodiment of the invention, being included in " P " in equation 12 can be byIt indicates. Equation 13 can be rewritten as following equation 14.
[equation 14]
It is 3 by the number of plies sent in order 3, and the quantity of physical antenna is 4.In this case, three antennas Each of can independently map to single layer.Here, only the signal of single layer can be mapped to remaining one Antenna or at least two layers of signal can be mapped to a remaining antenna.If the signal of only specific single layer It is mapped to a remaining antenna, then the CM of the signal sent via the antenna can have good feature, but the spy The communication performance for determining single layer may be with another layer difference.For example, the information in first layer (layer 1) is mapped to first antenna The information of (antenna 1) and the 4th antenna (antenna 4), the second layer (layer 2) is mapped to the second antenna (antenna 2), and third layer In the case that the information of (layer 3) is mapped to third antenna (antenna 3), the communication performance of 1 information of layer may be with layer 2 or layer 3 It is different.

[equation 15]
Wherein,
Pre-coding matrix P is stated in use1、P2And P3In the case of, the quantity for each layer of antenna is different from each other. However, if it is assumed that pre-coding matrix P1、P2And P3It is uniformly used for sending specific information, rather than uses pre-coding matrix P1、P2And P3Any of, then being used for the quantity of each layer of antenna can be normalized (normalized).Although in frequency Pre-coding matrix P can be alternately used in domain1、P2And P3, but the single-carrier property for the signal being made of single carrier is broken It is bad so that CM values inevitably increase.To if pre-coding matrix P1、P2And P3Alternately it is applied to each SC- FDMA symbols, then increase not additional CM.In the case of transmission data, information can be carried out as unit of a subframe Decoding.Therefore, if pre-coding matrix P1、P2And P3Alternately it is applied to each SC-FDMA symbols, then is sent out via single subframe The each layer information for the entire information sent can fifty-fifty be sent via the antenna of identical quantity.
In another embodiment of the invention, the position of the antenna used by each layer is changed, so that performance can be with It is enhanced.The change of aerial position can be carried out with the time.Particularly, antenna can be changed at each SC-FDMA symbols Position.Method detailed described in detail below for changing aerial position.
For example, the position of the value in pre-coding matrix other than " 0 " be changed in the range of row vector it is another Position so that another location can be changed to by sending the position of the antenna of each layer signal via it.As another example, on The method of stating can be realized by row/column displacement, this is because position displacement is held between the row or column of given pre-coding matrix Row.

{ 3,4,2,1 }, { 3,4,1,2 }, { 4,2,3,1 }, { 4,2,1,3 },
{ 4,3,2,1 }, { 4,3,1,2 }, { 4,1,2,3 }, { 4,1,3,2 }
In above-mentioned expression formula, { w, x, y, z } means the row vector 1,2,3 and 4 of pre-coding matrix in given precoding Matrix PkIt is rearranged by the sequence with bracket inner digital under the conditions of existing.
By line replacement, signal corresponding with particular row is mapped to different antennae.By column permutation, it can obtain and cut Change the identical effect of information of different layers.If you do not need to distinguishing the performance of each layer, then similar performance is required to each layer System need not utilize column permutation.It is thus possible to obtain effect corresponding with day line options using only line replacement.

Order 3- second embodiments
In one embodiment of the invention, use explained below can keep 6 precoding squares of good CM characteristics Battle array group is come the method that constructs code book.For keeping -3 pre-coding matrix group of six 4Tx orders of good CM characteristics can be by such as the following Formula 45 indicates.
[equation 45]
1st group2nd group3rd group4th group
5th group6th group
Wherein,
- 3 code book of order including 24 pre-coding matrixes in 6 groups shown in equation 45 is shown in following table 5 Example.In order to reduce complexity, in table 5 shown in example, be restricted to 1 by the letter of pre-coding matrix element representation ,- J, -1, and-j.
[table 5]
For another instance, the present invention proposes the method using the remaining set other than the 4th group (the 4th group), passes through Column permutation is applied to first group (the 1st group) shown in equation 45 in all groups and generates the 4th group (the 4th group).It is logical Often, it if three column vectors are indicated by [c1, c2, c3], then can generate such as [c1, c3, c2], [c2, c1, c3], [c2, c3, C1], [c3, c2, c1], and [c3, c1, c2] 5 column permutation matrixes, so as to obtain 6 matrixes.
Above-mentioned the reason of not using specific vector permutation matrix, is that the sequence of coding is mapped to the spy of pre-coding matrix Determine column vector (or certain layer).Assuming that the code word of two absolute codings in above-mentioned pre-coding matrix group is mapped to different layers, As described below.
(1) first code word is mapped to first layer.
(2) second code words are evenly distributed over and map to the second layer and third layer.
Assuming that being mapped using the above code word-layer, then specific column permutation does not generate the difference of the average SINR between different code words It is different.For example, the displacement from column vector [c1, c2, c3] to another column vector [c1, c3, c2] can indicate only the second code word Layer is exchanged.In this way, the exchange (wherein, identical second code word is evenly distributed over and maps) between two layers does not lead to performance Change.For the system using SIC receivers, being correctly decoded for code word causes performance to improve when giving the transmission of multiple code words. This is because code word is once correctly decoded.So can be interfered using the codeword information being correctly decoded to eliminate space layer. In the case that mutiple antennas transmission power by equably normalized, some column vectors of pre-coding matrix can have larger Transmission power.In the case of layer conversion/displacement is not present between all transmission layers, there is larger transmission power with column vector The corresponding certain layer of column vector of pre-coding matrix can have preferable performance.It is all not present on all layers sent In the case of layer conversion/displacement, in order to make full use of SIC receivers, the first layer that the first code word is individually mapped to be mapped To the pre-coding matrix column vector with larger transmission power, and the second code word for being mapped to the second layer and third layer is reflected The precoding vector with relatively small transmission power compared with first layer is mapped to arrange.In the feelings using the above code word-layer mapping Pre-coding matrix shown in [equation 46] under condition, can be used and using serial interference elimination (SIC) to connect to further increase Performance in the case of receipts machine algorithm.

III. device configuration
Section III chapter will include the improved structure in UE in following discloses, wherein improved structure can keep good PAPR or CM characteristics, while MIMO scheme application first downlink signal being sent.
Figure 10 is the block diagram for showing general base station (BS) and general user's equipment (UE).
With reference to figure 10, base station (BS) 10 includes processor 11, memory 12 and radio frequency (RF) module 13.RF modules 13 It is used as receiving uplink signal and sends the transmission/reception module of down link signal.Processor 11 can use deposit Storage down link signal in memory 12 send information (e.g., including in the code book for downlink signal transmissions Specific pre-coding matrix) control downlink signal transmissions.Otherwise, as the reverse process of precoding processing, processor 11 can be same by the way that the uplink signal reception information (for example, uplink signal) of storage in memory 12 to be multiplied by The Hermitian matrix of pre-coding matrix is as the pre-coding matrix used in UE 20, to control signal reception processing.
UE 20 may include being used as sending uplink signal and receiving the transmission/reception module of down link signal Processor 21, memory 22 and RF modules 23.Processor 21 can use the uplink signal being stored in memory 22 Information (e.g., including the specific pre-coding matrix in the above-mentioned code book for uplink signal transmission) is sent to control Downlink signal is transmitted.Otherwise, as the reverse process of precoding processing, processor 21 can be by that will be stored in memory 22 In down link signal receive information (for example, down link signal) be multiplied by same pre-coding matrix Hermitian matrix make For the pre-coding matrix used in UE 20, handled to control signal reception.
Meanwhile the processor explained below about UE 20 (or BS 10), it is sent especially with SC-FDMA schemes The detailed description of the structure of signal.It is explained below to be used to send signal based on the SC-FDMA schemes in 3GPP LTE systems Processor and processor for sending signal based on the OFDM schemes in 3GPP LTE systems, and it is explained below for making UE sends the processor of uplink signal using SC-FDMA schemes and MIMO scheme.
Figure 11 and Figure 12 shows for the SC-FDMA schemes of transmission uplink signal in 3GPP LTE systems and is used for The OFDMA schemes of down link signal are sent in 3GPP LTE systems.
It with reference to figure 11, is applied not only to send the UE of uplink signal, and the base station for sending down link signal (BS) include:Serial-parallel converter 401, subcarrier mapper 403, M point IDFT modules 404, parallel-serial converter 405 etc..So And the UE that signal is sent using SC-FDMA schemes further comprises N points DFT block 402, and compensate M point IDFT modules 404 Predetermined portions IDFT processing influence so that send signal can have single carrier feature.
Figure 12 shows the frame that the uplink signal specified in the TS 36.211 including 3GPP LTE system specifications is handled Relationship between figure and the processor for using SC-FDMA schemes transmission signal.According to TS 36.211, each UE uses specific Scrambler sequence carries out scrambler to sending signal, and to send uplink signal, and the signal after scrambler is modulated so that generates Complex symbol.Hereafter, the transformation precoding that DFT spread processings are carried out to complex symbol is executed.That is, being provided in TS 36.211 Transformation precoder can correspond to N point DFT blocks.Hereafter, by resource element mapper, according to based on resource block (RB) Mapping ruler, DFT spread-spectrum signals can be mapped to specific resource element, and will recognize, this operation corresponds to Subcarrier mapper shown in Figure 11.M points are carried out to the signal for mapping to resource element by SC-FDMA signal generator IDFT or IFFT processing executes parallel-serial converter to IDFT or IFFT handling results, cyclic prefix (CP) is then added to P/S Transformation result.
Meanwhile Figure 12 further illustrates the processor of base station (BS), which passes through above-mentioned processing for receiving Received signal in a base station.
