Definitions
- the present invention relates to a communication apparatus and a communication method for communicating digital radio signals bidirectionally on a one-to-one basis.
- FIG. 29 is a configuration diagram of a conventional broadband wireless transmission system shown in Non-Patent Document 1, for example, and shows that station 1 and station 2 transmit and receive on an equal basis on a one-to-one basis.
- station 1 can be a base station and station 2 can be a mobile station, and vice versa.
- Station 1 may be a mobile station and station 2 may be another mobile station.
- modulation conditions modulation scheme, coding rate, information transmission rate, etc.
- FIG. 30 is a diagram showing an example of transmission environment conditions used in the modulation condition selection in the conventional broadband wireless transmission system shown in FIG.
- FIG. 31 is a diagram showing an example of a conventional burst format that propagates through a wireless transmission path.
- a burst is a guard interval B1 for dealing with a signal transmission delay, a transmitting station, and a receiving station.
- a pilot symbol B2 and a data symbol B3, which are known patterns determined in advance with the station, are provided.
- pilot symbol B2 has two forces. It is assumed that this data pattern has the same or almost the same force. This is common to all embodiments of the present invention.
- the conventional receiver calculates at least one point from the arrival time of the preceding wave by calculating the correlation between the pilot symbol on the transmission side included in the received signal and the pilot symbol previously held on the reception side.
- Propagation path response also called delay profile
- the delay spread f DS indicating the standard deviation of the cross-correlation value and the signal power to noise power ratio f are estimated from the road response.
- d n is the pilot signal bit pattern
- N is the number of subcarriers
- r r i is the FFT calculation result corresponding to the n th subcarrier of the i th symbol.
- the modulation conditions to be applied (modulation method, coding rate, information transmission rate, etc.) are selected.
- the signal quality increases as f on the horizontal axis increases.
- R is the sign rate.
- Fig. 32 shows the temporal relationship between the preceding wave and the burst of the delayed wave received by the receiver
- Fig. 32 (a) shows the case where the delay of the delayed wave is smaller than the guard interval length.
- Figure 32 (b) shows the case where the delay of the delayed wave is greater than the guard interval length.
- the preceding wave B5 and the delayed wave B6 received after passing through another path are transformed into an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) window 7 and an interference component B4. It is shown.
- the FFT window 7 is a section on the time axis for extracting each data of the received signal power in order to perform FFT of the received data, and can be created by two methods.
- the timing of the preceding wave is extracted based on the channel response created by the cross-correlation between the received signal and the known pilot symbol, and the pilot symbol time and guard interval (predetermined from this preceding wave timing)
- the time when the time of GI) has elapsed is defined as the FFT window start time. Since the FFT window time is the same as the predetermined Data time, an FFT window can be created.
- the second method is that when the modulation method is OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Mult iplexing), the content of the tail of each received data and the content of the guard interval GI located immediately before the data are exactly the same.
- the correlation value peaks at the start of the GI.
- the starting point is the FFT window starting point when the predetermined GI time has elapsed from this starting point. Since the FFT window time is the same as the predetermined Data time, an FFT window can be created.
- the OFDM receiver demodulates the received wave by cutting out each data from the received signal strength in the FFT window and performing FFT. Next, the relationship between the FFT window and the FFT will be described. As shown in Fig. 32 (a), when the delay of the preceding wave force of the delayed wave is within the guard interval GI, in OFDM, the content of the tail of Data2 is completely the same as the content of the guard interval GI located immediately before Data2.
- the delay time of the delayed wave exceeds the time when the leading force of the preceding wave also exceeds the time for the GI length
- the time for the GI length has elapsed from the beginning of the preceding wave, as shown in the shaded area in Fig. 32 (b).
- the delayed wave component B4 that exceeds the point in time is another symbol component different from the Data2 symbol and causes intersymbol interference with the preceding Data2 symbol. This interference power increases as the delay amount of the delayed wave increases.
- Non-Patent Document 1 "A NEW FREQUENCY-DOMAIN LINK ADAPTATION SCHEME F OR BROADBAND OFDM SYSTEMS" VTC'99 p253-257
- the delay spread is used as a parameter for selecting the modulation condition as described above.
- the delay spread is the standard deviation of the reception level of the propagation path response,
- the delay spread increases as the delay amount and power increase, but there is a problem that it does not directly represent the interference power due to the delayed wave.
- the present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and is based on interference power due to delayed waves, interference power due to signals from non-target other terminals and base stations, and noise power.
- the purpose is to obtain an index that more accurately represents the signal quality.
- the network used in the claims is premised on including wired and wireless.
- a receiving apparatus receives a signal having a transmission parameter including a modulation scheme and an information data sequence modulated using the transmission parameter from a network, and the received signal power is also transmitted by the transmission device.
- a parameter is extracted, and means for demodulating the information data series using the extracted transmission parameter is provided.
- the modulation condition (modulation method, coding rate, and ratio) is determined according to the estimated signal power to interference power ratio 1 and signal power to interference power ratio 2. (Information transmission speed, etc.) is adaptively changed, so that at least one of system throughput and packet error characteristics can be improved compared to the conventional system.
