Description

一种实现空分复用的方法、 基站及终端 技术领域  Method, base station and terminal for realizing space division multiplexing
本发明实施例涉及大规模天线阵列通信技术, 尤指一种实现空分复用的 方法、 基站及终端。 背景技术 随着移动通信终端的不断发展, 促进了无线通信的数据应用业务也不断 增加, 诸如云计算、 视频通话、 多媒体分享、 社交等应用的开发应用, 使无 线通信网络用户呈现大规模增长, 无线数据业务在短期内实现了***式的增 长。 按照研究统计, 在未来 10年, 无线数据业务仍然存在 500~1000倍的增 长空间, 这对无线通信***的容量提出了非常高的要求。  The embodiments of the present invention relate to a large-scale antenna array communication technology, and in particular, to a method, a base station, and a terminal for implementing space division multiplexing. BACKGROUND With the continuous development of mobile communication terminals, data application services that promote wireless communication are also increasing, and development applications such as cloud computing, video calling, multimedia sharing, and social networking have caused large-scale growth of wireless communication network users. Wireless data services have experienced explosive growth in the short term. According to research statistics, in the next 10 years, wireless data services still have 500 to 1000 times the growth space, which puts very high demands on the capacity of wireless communication systems.
进行无线网络容量提升的方法目前常用的有: ( 1 )增加频谱带宽; ( 2 ) 加强业务分流; (3 )提高网络密度; (4 )提升频谱效率。 在这些方法中, 基于多天线技术的提升频谱效率方法获得了非常多的关注。  At present, methods for improving the capacity of wireless networks are: (1) increasing spectrum bandwidth; (2) enhancing service offload; (3) increasing network density; and (4) improving spectrum efficiency. Among these methods, the method of improving spectral efficiency based on multi-antenna technology has received a lot of attention.
多天线技术从单一用户端的多输入输出( SU-MIMO )演进到多用户端的 多输入输出 (MU-MIMO ) , 再发展为协作多点传输技术(CoMP ) , 发展思 路是从提高单链路的稳定性和峰值流量到提高***整体流量。 但是, CoMP 由于测量信道、 数据交互等带来的资源开销, 以及多路径功率的不平衡等问 题, 在实际应用中性能并不理想, 很难达到预期的效果。  Multi-antenna technology evolved from single-user multi-input and output (SU-MIMO) to multi-user multi-input and output (MU-MIMO), and then developed into coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP). The development idea is to improve single-link. Stability and peak flow to increase overall system flow. However, due to the resource overhead caused by measuring channel, data interaction, and the imbalance of multipath power, CoMP performance is not ideal in practical applications, and it is difficult to achieve the desired effect.
在这种背景之下, 基于大规模天线阵列 (LSAS ) 或者大规模 MIMO ( Massive MIMO ) 的通信技术被提出来, 它是 MIMO技术的扩展和延伸, 其基本特征就是在基站侧配置数量众多的天线阵列 (从几十至几千) , 利用 空分多址(SDMA )原理, 同时服务于多个用户。 由于大规模天线阵列带来 的巨大阵列增益和干扰抑制增益, 使得小区总的频谱效率和边缘用户的频谱 效率得到了极大的提升。  Under this background, communication technologies based on large-scale antenna array (LSAS) or massive MIMO (mass MIMO) are proposed, which is an extension and extension of MIMO technology. The basic feature is that a large number of configurations are performed on the base station side. Antenna arrays (from tens to thousands) use the principle of space division multiple access (SDMA) to serve multiple users simultaneously. Due to the large array gain and interference suppression gain brought by the large-scale antenna array, the total spectrum efficiency of the cell and the spectral efficiency of the edge users are greatly improved.
虽然大规模天线阵列***使得小区的频谱效率和边缘用户的频谱效率得 到了极大的提升, 然而, 在实际应用时, 却存在导频开销大的问题。 在时分 双工***中, 由于上下行链路存在互异性, 可以通过基站发送的导频信号估 计信道, 所以导频开销的问题不是特别明显, 但是在频分双工***或者上下 行不存在互异性的时分双工***中 (例如工作在特定高频段的***) , 由于 上下行链路不存在互异性, 下行导频开销与天线数成正比, 而且终端需要向 基站反馈下行信道状态信息, 也会带来比较大的反馈开销, 进而严重影响了 大规模天线阵列***的性能。 Although the large-scale antenna array system has greatly improved the spectral efficiency of the cell and the spectral efficiency of the edge users, in practice, there is a problem of large pilot overhead. In a time division duplex system, since the uplink and downlink are mutually different, the pilot signal transmitted by the base station can be estimated. The channel overhead, so the problem of pilot overhead is not particularly obvious, but in a frequency division duplex system or a time division duplex system where there is no mutual difference between uplink and downlink (for example, a system operating in a specific high frequency band), because the uplink and downlink are not There is mutuality, the downlink pilot overhead is proportional to the number of antennas, and the terminal needs to feed back the downlink channel state information to the base station, which also brings a large feedback overhead, which seriously affects the performance of the large-scale antenna array system.
另外, 按照已有技术, 假设一大规模天线阵列通信***中基站包含 128 根物理天线, 每个终端包含一根天线, 在上下行信道不具有互异性的***中, ***至少需要提供 128个子载波来让终端用于进行信道估计, 生成预编码矩 阵 8 产生的导频开销严重影响了***的性能, 另外, ***中大量的天线, 使终端预编码矩阵过于复杂。 发明内容 In addition, according to the prior art, it is assumed that a base station in a large-scale antenna array communication system includes 128 physical antennas, and each terminal includes one antenna. In a system in which the uplink and downlink channels do not have mutual anisotropy, the system needs to provide at least 128 subcarriers. To allow the terminal to perform channel estimation, the pilot overhead generated by the precoding matrix 8 seriously affects the performance of the system. In addition, a large number of antennas in the system make the terminal precoding matrix too complicated. Summary of the invention
