Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a kind of method and apparatus that is used for realizing the transmission diversity of wireless telecommunication system, especially, relate to a kind of be used for the multiple antenna transmission carry out non-zero complex weighted and method and apparatus space-time code to signal.
The background of invention
Along with the development of wireless communication system, improve gradually about the requirement of the wireless system design of equipment and performance requirement aspect.Following wireless system, compare with the second generation digital system of using at present with the simulation of the first generation, it should be the 3rd or fourth-generation system, except needs provide high-quality voice service, also needs to provide the data, services of high-quality high transfer rate.Consistent with the service performance demand of system, on device design, exist restriction, the influence that this is bigger the design of portable terminal.Third and fourth generation mobile radio terminal will need littler, lighter, a plurality of effective energy unit that the required data, services of intrinsic sound and these following wireless systems can be provided.
Time dependent multipath fading is an effect in the wireless system because receiver signal constructive and destructive and, the signal of a transmission along many roads leading to receiver through propagation, thereby caused the decay of received signal.The method that known being used at present overcomes the multipath fading effect has following, for example, carries out time-interleavedly with self-correcting code, utilizes spread spectrum techniques to realize the diversity of frequency, perhaps transmitter energy control technology.But each in these technology is used in the third and fourth generation wireless system and is all existed defective.The time-interleaved unnecessary delay of having introduced, spread spectrum techniques is in order to overcome big coherence bandwidth, need bigger allocated bandwidth, the higher transmitter energy that the energy control technology need be more required than intrinsic receiver-transmitter Feedback Technology, Feedback Technology has improved the complexity of portable terminal.The influence that these all shortcomings are all passive realize the required characteristic of the third and fourth generation portable terminal.
Antenna diversity is the another kind of technology that is used for overcoming wireless system multipath fading effect.In diversity reception, the antenna of two or more physical separation is used to receive the signal of a transmission, and signal is merged and conversion process then, thereby has produced the signal of a reception.The shortcoming of diversity reception is that physical separation required between the antenna makes and can't uses diversity reception on the forward link in new wireless system, and need small-sized portable terminal in new wireless system.Be used to realize that the another kind of method of antenna diversity is a transmission diversity.In transmission diversity, a signal is transmitted from two or more antennas, by using for example maximum likelihood sequence estimator (MLSE), least mean-square error (MMSE) receiver is handled at receiver end to receiver or their approximation behind the maximum a then.Transmission diversity has more actual application in the forward link of wireless system, wherein, and realization multiple antenna that can be more easy in the base station than in portable terminal.
Now studied the situation of the transmission diversity of two antennas in good condition.Alamouti has advised a kind of method of diversity transmission of two antennas that second level diversity is provided for the complex values signal.S.Alamouti, " the simple transmit diversity technique that is used for radio communication " (IEEE selects communication zone magazine, 1451-1458, in October, 1998).The Alamouti method relates at a symbol period transmits two signals simultaneously from two antennas.In a symbol period, the signal that sends from first antenna is represented as S0, and the signal that sends from second antenna is represented as S1.In next symbol period, the signal that sends from first antenna is-S1
*, the signal that sends from second antenna is represented as S0
*, wherein
*For complex conjugate is represented symbol.A simple diversity transmission system also can realize at encoding domain.For example, two of same-sign are duplicated the parallel transmission of walsh code that can use two quadratures.Same technology also can be used to construct the coding method of a frequency domain.
The Alamouti method can not directly expand to plural antenna.The method of the space-time block coding that the use complex signal planisphere that people such as Tarokh have proposed a kind of rate=1/2 of use and 3/4 transmits on three and four antennas.V.Tarokh, H.Jafarkhani, and A.Calderbank, " space-time block coding of orthogonal design " (IEEE about the journal of information theory, 1456-1467, in July, 1999).This method has a shortcoming, has lost transmission ratio, and many level nature of ST coded identification have increased the required peak value-average ratio that transmits, and the strict demand that has increased the linear power amplifier design.The other method that alleviates these problems is " the plural space-time block coding that is used for the 4Tx antenna " that put forward by O.Tirkkonen and A.Hottinen (a Global Communications System journal in November, 2000,2000, san francisco, usa).The method of other suggestion comprises rate=1, orthogonal set emission (OTD)+4 antenna time-space diversity emission (STTD) method.L.Jalloul, K.Kuchi and J.Chen, " performance evaluation of CDMA diversity transmitting method " (IEEE media technology conference proceedings, autumn in 1999) and M.Harrison and K.Kuchi " opening of the High Data Rate on 2 and 4 elements and the emission of closed circulation diversity " (the submission 3GPP-C30-19990817-017 of Motorola).This method needs an external encode, and owing to second sequential interleaved gain of STTD piece (Alamouti piece) and use OTD piece provides second diversity order.The performance of this method depends on the intensity of external encode.Because this method needs external encode, it is not suitable for uncoded system.For the situation of the convolutional encoding of rate=1/3, the performance of the ST block coding method of OTD+STTD method and Tarokh rate=3/4 method is identical.The method of another rate=1 is at O.Tirkkonen, ABOARIU and A.Hottinen, and " the minimum nonopiate ratel space-time block coding that is used for the 3+Tx antenna " has related in (ISSSTA journal, in September, 2000).But the method for advising in this article has reached high performance has needed a complicated receiver.
Therefore, if a kind of method and apparatus is arranged, can provide the diversity transmission on more than two antennas, the design complexity that does not increase system simultaneously will be very favorable.

The non-zero complex weighted of these transmission on antenna 2 and 4 can be performed according to various alternative.For example, phase pattern W1 (t)=exp (j that on antenna 2, uses
*Pi
*Phase-in-degrees/180) can be employed, and phase pattern-W1 (t), the phase place of its skew W1 (t) is 180 degree, can be used on antenna 4.The example of the phase shifts pattern of angle on the antenna on the 4PSK planisphere 2 be 0,90,180, and on 270} and the antenna 4 be 180,270,0,90}.Accompanying drawing 15 has shown the planisphere of the another kind of phase shifts pattern that can use in each embodiment of the present invention.The mobile number of degrees of this sequence 0,135,270,45,180,315,90,225} can be transmitted on the antenna 2 on antenna 4, use simultaneously the move angle pattern 180,315,90,225,0,135,270,45}.Phase shifts can be periodically or at random.Periodic phase shifts refers to a predetermined phase pattern, for example, periodically repeats complex weighted W1 (t).Thereby the complex weighted path of a maximum length that made complex weighted sequence definition of can being defined is so that as far as possible independently carry out continuous sampling to effective channel.This can produce and interweave redundancy and reduce the delay transmission.It can be the sequence of the random phase that chooses from a MPSK planisphere that employed pseudo-random phase moves.In addition, in the time of the relevant tolerance of the energy control of estimating channel coefficient inclusive NAND zero complex weighted channel, another kind of non-zero complex weighted scheme is favourable, and the phase difference in this scheme between the continuous phase state is as much as possible little.In this case, in the duration of an encoding block, phase state can cover 360 degree.Channel interweaves and also can be used in the embodiment of legacy system.Also may carry out non-zero complex weighted sequence can be independent as much as possible with the symbol of uniting the output of such interleaver that interweaves.And by changing the relative phase place between antenna 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 respectively, thereby this method can be performed all have a phase shifts or scanning on all antenna elements, but antenna 1,2, and the phase shifts between 3,4 is held.For example, utilize phasescan, on antenna 1, have the phasescan of a 50Hz, and the phasescan that on antenna 2, has one-50Hz, thereby have the effective scanning of a 100Hz.Similar for antenna 3 and antenna 4.
Also can be every T change a phase place rotation second.The selection of T decided according to total duration of data symbol and the method that is used for the estimating channel coefficient.Phase place can be held and not become shared total duration of data symbol, and wherein at least one space-time code piece and corresponding special use or common pilot sequence/training sequence can be used to carry out suitable channel estimation.Pilot frequency sequence can be a walsh code as using in the cdma system, or is used for the sequence of the training symbol of correcting feature preferably that has of channel estimation in tdma system.Frequency pilot sign can be used identical non-zero complex weighted coefficient with data in the space-time piece.In addition, pilot tone can not have being transmitted of phase step yet.In this case, effective channel of data can be estimated the associating derivation from the dancing mode of a previously known with according to the channel that a non-dancing mode channel obtains.Under the non-zero complex weighted situation that is applied to public guide frequency, can use identical or different phase patterns with public guide frequency for data.Use the channel estimation of non-jump pilot tone or training sequence (transmission on public or dedicated channel) that better channel estimation is provided owing to channel is more stable.
Referring now to accompanying drawing 1b, be the part block diagram of common pilot channel space-time diversity transmission (STTD) transmitter 100 according to an embodiment of the invention here.Transmitter 100 can be as 4 antenna transmit diversity of the version 99 of a wideband CDMA (WCDMA) that extends to third generation system standard.Transmitter 100 comprises input 126, block code processor 124, traffic channel symbol stream are handled the input 102a-102d of branch, antenna gain block 104a-104d, phase shifter 106a and 106b, phase shifter input 112a and 112b, encoded multiplier 108a-108d, pilot frequency sequence handle the input 114a-114d of branch, antenna gain block 116a-116d, encoded multiplier 118a-118d, RF transmitter 128 comprises RF transmitter 128z-128d and antenna 1-4.
In accompanying drawing 1b, the data that are transmitted are received at input 126, these data comprise a channel coding and comprise the incoming symbol stream X (t) that interweaves of symbol S1S2.Coding produces a transformation results that comprises one 2 * 2 orthogonal space-time block encoding thereby block code processor 124 per two receiving symbol S1S2 carry out once.In the present embodiment, thus block code processor 124 can carry out the Alamouti conversion and produce a block encoding, represent with following matrix form:
