Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a spectrum sensing method in a cognitive radio system, in particular to an OFDM signal spectrum sensing method aiming at time synchronization and without frequency offset based on noise power estimation.
Background
With the rapid development of various wireless communication services and emerging communication technologies (such as ZigBee technology, fast access module, LTE technology, ultra wideband network, etc.), the importance and scarcity of spectrum resources are increasingly prominent. A lot of research shows that the current shortage of spectrum resources is not caused by the physical shortage of frequency resources, but mainly caused by the low utilization rate of the spectrum due to the fixed spectrum allocation management mechanism. Cognitive radio is an attempt to essentially solve the problem of increasing shortage of wireless communication resources by improving spectrum utilization. The cognitive radio system can sense the surrounding communication environment in real time, recognize available idle channels and then adaptively adjust the system parameters of the cognitive radio network according to the spectrum sensing result, so that the cognitive radio system has the capacity of intelligently identifying and changing spectrum use opportunities. In order to prevent interference to the existing communication system, the cognitive radio system must be able to reliably and effectively identify the idle channel, and therefore spectrum sensing is one of the key technologies in cognitive radio.
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology has the characteristic of high spectrum utilization rate, and is one of the technologies widely adopted by current and future wireless communication standards, so that the technology has a very important significance in researching spectrum sensing of OFDM signals (namely judging whether OFDM signals exist in a channel). Existing spectrum sensing methods for OFDM signals can be divided into frequency domain detection and time domain detection. The frequency domain detection needs to calculate the frequency spectrum of the sampling signal, so that the frequency domain detection has larger calculation amount; the time domain detection mainly utilizes the autocorrelation characteristic of the cyclic prefix in the OFDM signal to realize spectrum sensing, and the calculated amount is low. A covariance matrix-based Spectrum sensing method proposed by Zeng et al in 2009 in spectral sensitive spectra for statistical radio on statistical covariance, which can achieve Spectrum sensing by using correlation in OFDM signals, has the characteristic of low calculation amount, but does not consider specific conditions of time synchronization and no frequency offset, so that the cyclic prefix autocorrelation characteristic of OFDM signals cannot be effectively utilized.
Disclosure of Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to provide a method for sensing the frequency spectrum of an OFDM signal under the condition of time synchronization and no frequency offset based on noise power estimation, which can effectively improve the frequency spectrum sensing performance of the OFDM signal and has low computational complexity.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the technical problems is as follows: a method for sensing OFDM signal frequency spectrum under the condition of time synchronization and no frequency offset is characterized in that the processing process is as follows: firstly, sampling a received signal from a monitoring channel to obtain a sampling signal; then, according to the sampling values of all sampling points in the sampling signal, under the conditions of time synchronization and no frequency offset, estimating and obtaining the noise power by utilizing the autocorrelation of the cyclic prefix of the OFDM signal in the received signal; calculating a covariance matrix of the sampling signal according to the sampling value of the sampling point in the sampling signal; then, calculating test statistic according to the noise power and the covariance matrix of the sampling signals; and finally, judging whether an authorized user signal exists in the monitoring channel by comparing the test statistic with the obtained judgment threshold so as to realize spectrum sensing.
The OFDM signal spectrum sensing method specifically comprises the following steps:
sampling a received signal from a monitoring channel for M times by using a sampling module in a cognitive radio system to obtain a sampling signal formed by sampling values of M sampling points, wherein M is K × N, K represents the total number of OFDM symbols contained in the OFDM signal in the received signal, K is more than or equal to 1, N represents the total number of subcarriers in any one OFDM symbol in the OFDM signal in the received signal, and N is Nc+Nd,NcRepresenting the length of the cyclic prefix of an OFDM signal in a received signal, NdRepresenting the total number of sub-carriers of useful data within any one OFDM symbol in an OFDM signal in a received signal, Nd≥Nc>1, and is provided with NcAnd NdAre all even;
step two: according to the sampling values of all sampling points in the sampling signal, under the conditions of time synchronization and no frequency offset, estimating and obtaining noise power by utilizing autocorrelation of the cyclic prefix of the OFDM signal in the received signal, and marking as Where ρ isηAn estimate value representing a correlation coefficient of the received signal,an estimate value representing the power of the received signal;
step three: calculating a covariance matrix, denoted as R, of the sampled signal based on the sampled values of the sampled points in the sampled signalx,RxIs a matrix of L × L dimension, and R isxThe element in the ith row and the jth column is marked as Rx(i,j),Wherein, L ∈ [2, M-1],1≤i≤L,1≤j≤LX (p) denotes the sample value of the p-th sample point in the sample signal, x*(p-j + i) is conjugate of x (p-j + i), wherein x (p-j + i) represents a sampling value of a p-j + i sampling point in the sampling signal;
step five: acquiring a judgment threshold, and recording as lambda; then comparing the test statistic T with the size of a decision threshold lambda, and if T is larger than lambda, judging that an authorized user signal exists in the monitoring channel; if T is less than or equal to lambda, it is judged that no authorized user signal exists in the monitoring channel, and the monitoring channel is in an idle state, so that spectrum sensing is realized.
In the second step, the first step is carried out,wherein K is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to K-1, N is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to NcX (N + k × N) represents the sample value of the N + k × N-th sample point in the sample signal, x (N + N)d+ k × N) is x (N + N)dConjugate of + k × N), x (N + N)d+ k × N) represents the N + N-th in the sampled signaldThe sample value of + k × N sample points.
In the second step, the first step is carried out,wherein M is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M, x (M) represents the sampling value of the mth sampling point in the sampling signal, and the symbol "|" is an absolute value symbol.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
1) under the condition of time synchronization, the method only needs to utilize the sample number with the same length as the cyclic prefix of the OFDM signal to calculate the correlation coefficient, namely only needs K × N when calculating the correlation coefficient of the received signalcThe information of individual sample values, and therefore the computational complexity of the test statistic can be reduced.
2) Compared with the traditional noise power estimator which is only effective in noise samples, the method for estimating the noise power fully utilizes the autocorrelation of the cyclic prefix of the OFDM signal, thereby accurately estimating the noise power in the current sensing time slot and effectively improving the spectrum sensing performance of the OFDM signal.
3) The method does not need to calculate the eigenvalue of the covariance matrix and the frequency spectrum of the sampling signal, so the method has the characteristics of low calculation complexity and simple operation.
