- the present invention seeks to estimate the optimal value of an array parameter according to the propagation environment so that the weight estimation capability can be optimized in any propagation environment. is there.
- a method for estimating the optimum value of the array parameter for example, the following first to third embodiments can be considered.

- the optimal array parameters in the propagation environment are estimated. is there.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of a table showing the relationship between such a propagation environment and optimal array parameters.
- the factors representing the change in the propagation environment include the multiplicity in one slot of the spatial multiplexing base station and the magnitude of fading.
- the array parameters include the correlation initial value and the update step. Note that the correlation initial value and the updating step here have the following significance.
- the correlation initial correction means the initial gradient in the successively updated weight estimation method that approaches the optimal weight as the number of estimations increases. If this correlation initial value is large, the number of estimations for the initial weight to approach the optimal value is reduced, but it is easy to diverge. Conversely, when this value is small, the number of times the initial weight approaches the optimal value increases, but divergence tends to be difficult.
- the update step means a parameter that determines how much the weight value estimated up to the previous time is taken over when the weight is updated. As the update step is closer to the maximum value of 1, the value up to the previous time tends to be largely inherited, and as the update step is closer to the minimum value of 0, the value up to the previous time tends to be smaller.
- the lower the multiplicity the smaller the interference components from other multiplexed terminals and the better the propagation environment, but the more the multiplicity, the harsher the propagation environment.
- the more the fading is smaller e.g. smaller again than 7 H z Doppler frequency FD is
- the larger the fading e.g. Dobbura first frequency FD is greater than 7 H Z
- the higher the multiplicity the more difficult the reception becomes. Therefore, it is necessary to converge the weights quickly, and therefore, the optimum value of the correlation initial value increases as the multiplicity increases.
- the optimal value of the update step is large.
- the optimal value of the update step is small.
- the weight that is more suitable for the actual propagation environment can be compared to the conventional array parameter fixed method. An estimate can be made.
- the multiplicity and the fading rate of the base station were used as the elements that represent the propagation environment, but the DD ratio between the multiple users, the correlation value of the received signal between the multiple users, and the multi-user terminal Other factors, such as the uplink reception level from the server, may be used.
- a combination of two parameters ie, the correlation initial value and the update step
- the correlation initial value and the update step is given as an array parameter depending on the propagation environment, but any combination of parameters that depends on the propagation environment is used. Is also good.
