Description

天线***及其控制方法、网络设备Antenna system and its control method, network equipment 技术领域Technical field
本公开涉及无线通信技术，具体涉及一种天线***及其控制方法、网络设备。The present disclosure relates to wireless communication technology, and in particular, to an antenna system, its control method, and network equipment.
背景技术Background technique
5G***与4G***的核心差异之一是采用了毫米波频段(>10GHz)，在高频段的通信***，其可用的频谱资源非常丰富，更有可能占用更宽的连续频带进行通信，从而满足5G对信道容量和传输速率等方面的需求。同时，未来的6G***为了获得更大的传输带宽，将使用更高的频段(如>100GHz甚至THz频段等)。One of the core differences between the 5G system and the 4G system is the use of the millimeter wave frequency band (>10GHz). In the high-band communication system, the available spectrum resources are very rich, and it is more likely to occupy a wider continuous frequency band to communicate, thus satisfy 5G needs for channel capacity and transmission rate. At the same time, in order to obtain greater transmission bandwidth, future 6G systems will use higher frequency bands (such as >100GHz or even THz frequency bands).
然而，毫米波移动通信也存在传输距离短、穿透和绕射能力差、容易受气候环境影响等缺点。因此，高增益、有自适应波束形成和波束控制能力的天线阵列，自然成为5G在毫米波段应用的关键技术。然而，相关技术中的天线***，在一些信道环境下，仍然无法克服信号阻塞(blocking)的影响，从而无法实现有效的信号传输。However, millimeter wave mobile communication also has shortcomings such as short transmission distance, poor penetration and diffraction capabilities, and susceptibility to climate environment. Therefore, antenna arrays with high gain, adaptive beamforming and beam control capabilities have naturally become the key technology for 5G applications in the millimeter wave band. However, the antenna system in the related art still cannot overcome the effect of signal blocking under some channel environments, and thus cannot achieve effective signal transmission.

Correspondingly, adjusting the orientation of the first antenna array 13 refers to adjusting the pitch angle of the first antenna array 13 and the like. At this time, the mobile device 12 may be a motor capable of at least adjusting the pitch angle of the first antenna array 13.
在一实施例中，所述第一天线阵列13包含至少两个子天线阵列；在这种情况下，调整所述第一天线阵列13的内部结构是指对所述第一天线阵列 13中的至少两个子天线阵列的位置进行调整；具体地，所述移动装置12，配置为调整各子天线阵列之间的相对位置。In an embodiment, the first antenna array 13 includes at least two sub-antenna arrays; in this case, adjusting the internal structure of the first antenna array 13 refers to adjusting at least one of the first antenna array 13 The positions of the two sub-antenna arrays are adjusted; specifically, the mobile device 12 is configured to adjust the relative positions between the sub-antenna arrays.
需要说明的是：实际应用时，当所述第一天线阵列13的各子天线阵列单独使用时，每个子天线阵列可以对应一个射频前端部件；当包含子天线阵列的所述第一天线阵列13作为一个整体使用时，所述第一天线阵列13对应一个射频前端部件，以实现第一天线阵列13的功能。It should be noted that: in actual application, when each sub-antenna array of the first antenna array 13 is used alone, each sub-antenna array may correspond to a radio frequency front-end component; when the first antenna array 13 including the sub-antenna array When used as a whole, the first antenna array 13 corresponds to a radio frequency front-end component, so as to realize the function of the first antenna array 13.
实际应用时，为了调整所述第一天线阵列13的内部结构，即调整各子天线阵列之间的相对位置，以及调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置，可以设置相应的滑动轨道，通过电机驱动各子天线阵列移动或者驱动所述第一天线阵列13整体移动，以实现对所述第一天线阵列13的调整。In actual application, in order to adjust the internal structure of the first antenna array 13, that is, adjust the relative position between the sub-antenna arrays and adjust the spatial position of the first antenna array 13, a corresponding sliding track may be set by The motor drives each sub-antenna array to move or drives the first antenna array 13 to move integrally, so as to realize adjustment of the first antenna array 13.
基于此，在一实施例中，所述第一天线阵列13设置在滑动轨道上，所述移动装置12，配置为通过所述滑动轨道对所述第一天线阵列13进行以下调整之一：Based on this, in an embodiment, the first antenna array 13 is disposed on a sliding track, and the mobile device 12 is configured to perform one of the following adjustments to the first antenna array 13 through the sliding track:
所述第一天线阵列13的内部结构；The internal structure of the first antenna array 13;
所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置。The spatial position of the first antenna array 13.
这里，所述第一天线阵列13设置在固定部件上，比如平台或支架上等，而滑动轨道设置在所述固定固件上，所述移动装置12通过滑动轨道调整所述各子天线阵列之间的相对位置；所述移动装置12通过滑动轨道调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置。Here, the first antenna array 13 is disposed on a fixed component, such as a platform or a bracket, and the sliding track is disposed on the fixed firmware, and the mobile device 12 adjusts between the sub-antenna arrays through the sliding track The relative position of the mobile device 12 adjusts the spatial position of the first antenna array 13 by sliding the track.
这里，当所述第一天线阵列13设置在固定部件上时，所述移动装置12调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置，可以认为是调整所述第一天线阵列相对于所述固定部件的相对位置。Here, when the first antenna array 13 is disposed on the fixed component, the mobile device 12 adjusts the spatial position of the first antenna array 13, which may be considered to adjust the first antenna array relative to the fixed component Relative position.
其中，当所述第一天线阵列13固定在所述固定部件上时，实际应用时，所述空间位置可以包括水平空间位置和垂直空间位置。根据所述终端所处的环境，可以通过水平方向的移动(所述第一天线阵列13水平移动)来调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置，也可以通过垂直方向的移动(所述第一天线阵列13纵向移动)，来调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置。当然，也可以同时通过水平方向和垂直方向的移动来调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置。Wherein, when the first antenna array 13 is fixed on the fixing member, in practical application, the spatial position may include a horizontal spatial position and a vertical spatial position. According to the environment where the terminal is located, the spatial position of the first antenna array 13 can be adjusted by horizontal movement (the first antenna array 13 moves horizontally), or by the vertical movement (the first An antenna array 13 moves longitudinally) to adjust the spatial position of the first antenna array 13. Of course, the spatial position of the first antenna array 13 can also be adjusted by moving in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction at the same time.
另外，所述固定固件可以根据需要来确定，举个例子来说，当所述天线***位于室外时，所述固定固件可以是基站铁塔，建筑物的外墙等；当所述天线***位于室内时，所述固定固件可以是室内顶棚等。In addition, the fixed firmware may be determined according to needs. For example, when the antenna system is located outdoors, the fixed firmware may be a base station tower, a building exterior wall, etc.; when the antenna system is located indoors At this time, the fixed firmware may be an indoor ceiling or the like.
当然，实际应用时，所述第一天线阵列13也可以固定在一个固定部件上，而是可移动的，比如所述第一天线阵列设置在移动基站上，当根据所述第一天线阵列13与终端之间的无线信道条件对天线阵列进行调整时，所述移动装置驱动移动基站移动，从而达到移动所述第一天线阵列13的目的。Of course, in practical applications, the first antenna array 13 may also be fixed on a fixed component, but movable, for example, the first antenna array is provided on a mobile base station, when the first antenna array 13 When adjusting the antenna array by the wireless channel conditions with the terminal, the mobile device drives the mobile base station to move, thereby achieving the purpose of moving the first antenna array 13.
从上面的描述可以看出，调整所述第一天线阵列13的空间位置可以理解为：所述第一天线阵列13为一个整体，调整所述第一天线阵列13相对 于终端的空间位置。As can be seen from the above description, adjusting the spatial position of the first antenna array 13 can be understood as: adjusting the spatial position of the first antenna array 13 relative to the terminal as a whole.
为了保证网络设备与终端之间能够形成最佳无线链路，以高效地实现高频段***的信号传输，实际应用时，可以利用一些天线阵列来探测什么方向具有更好地无线信道条件，根据探测结果来调整所述第一天线阵列13。In order to ensure that the best wireless link can be formed between the network equipment and the terminal to efficiently realize the signal transmission of the high-band system, in practical applications, some antenna arrays can be used to detect which direction has better wireless channel conditions, according to the detection As a result, the first antenna array 13 is adjusted.
基于此，在一实施例中，如图2所示，所述天线***还可以包括：至少一个第二天线阵列14；Based on this, in an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the antenna system may further include: at least one second antenna array 14;
所述控制器11，配置为利用所述至少一个第二天线阵列14探测相应方位的无线信道条件；当相应方位的无线信道条件优于所述网络设备与终端之间的无线信道条件时，生成所述控制指令；The controller 11 is configured to use the at least one second antenna array 14 to detect the wireless channel condition of the corresponding orientation; when the wireless channel condition of the corresponding orientation is better than the wireless channel condition between the network device and the terminal, generate The control instruction;
所述移动装置12，配置为响应所述控制指令，依据无线信道条件优于所述网络设备与终端之间的无线信道条件的第二天线阵列14在所述天线***中的布局对所述第一天线阵列13进行调整。The mobile device 12 is configured to respond to the control instruction according to a layout of the second antenna array 14 in the antenna system according to a wireless channel condition better than the wireless channel condition between the network device and the terminal. An antenna array 13 is adjusted.
举个例子来说，假设在所述第一天线阵列13的上、下、左、右四个方向的相应位置各设置了一个第二天线阵列14，当检测到上方的第二天线阵列14与终端获得的无线信道条件优于第一天线阵列13与终端获得的无线信道条件时，所述移动装置12响应所述控制指令，驱动所述第一天线阵列13向上方的第二天线阵列14的方向移动，以便在所述网络设备与终端之间形成更好的无线链路。For example, suppose that a second antenna array 14 is provided at the corresponding positions of the first antenna array 13 in the four directions of up, down, left and right. When the second antenna array 14 above is detected and When the wireless channel condition obtained by the terminal is better than the wireless channel condition obtained by the first antenna array 13 and the terminal, the mobile device 12 responds to the control instruction and drives the first antenna array 13 toward the upper second antenna array 14 Move in the direction to form a better wireless link between the network device and the terminal.
在调整所述第一天线阵列13时，可以结合波束管理方面的策略来具体调整所述第一天线阵列13，比如俯仰角的角度、各子天线阵列的具***置、所述第一天线阵列13的具体空间位置等。举个例子来说，为了解决高频段的覆盖困难的问题，在5G***中引入了模拟波束赋形和混合波束赋形技术。这些波束赋形技术可以在视距(Line-of-sight，LOS)信道环境下，通过在特定方向上集中发射能量和接收天线增益，提高5G(甚至6G)信号的覆盖。但是，在非视距(Non-line-of-sight，NLOS)信道环境下，仍然无法克服信号阻塞(blocking)的影响，无法实现有效的信号传输。这里，在LOS信道环境条件下，无线信号无遮挡地在发送端与接收端之间直线传播。那么，在这种情况下，所述移动装置13可以调整所述第一天线阵列13以使在所述第一天线阵列与所述终端之间实现直射路径，即所述网络设备与终端之间具有LOS信道环境。When adjusting the first antenna array 13, the first antenna array 13 can be specifically adjusted in combination with beam management strategies, such as the angle of pitch angle, the specific position of each sub-antenna array, and the first antenna array 13 Specific spatial location, etc. For example, in order to solve the problem of difficult coverage in high frequency bands, analog beamforming and hybrid beamforming technologies are introduced in 5G systems. These beamforming techniques can improve the coverage of 5G (or even 6G) signals by focusing on transmitting energy and receiving antenna gain in a specific direction in a line-of-sight (LOS) channel environment. However, in a non-line-of-sight (NLOS) channel environment, it is still impossible to overcome the impact of signal blocking and effective signal transmission cannot be achieved. Here, under the LOS channel environment, the wireless signal propagates linearly between the transmitting end and the receiving end without obstruction. Then, in this case, the mobile device 13 may adjust the first antenna array 13 to achieve a direct path between the first antenna array and the terminal, that is, between the network device and the terminal With LOS channel environment.
本公开实施例还提供了一种网络设备，包含上述的天线***。An embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a network device including the above-mentioned antenna system.
其中，实际应用时，所述网络设备可以是基站。In practical applications, the network device may be a base station.

According to the wireless channel conditions between the antenna array and the terminal, one of the following adjustments is automatically made to the antenna array: pointing; structure; spatial location, so that the best wireless link between the network device and the terminal can be ensured, which can be more efficient Realize the signal transmission of high frequency band system.
另外，调整所述第一天线阵列13以使在所述第一天线阵列13与所述终端之间实现直射路径，如此，能够提高无线信号的覆盖，进一步能够更加高效地实现高频段***的信号传输。In addition, the first antenna array 13 is adjusted so as to realize a direct path between the first antenna array 13 and the terminal, so that the coverage of the wireless signal can be improved, and the signal of the high-band system can be realized more efficiently transmission.
下面结合应用实施例对本公开实施例的天线***进行说明。The antenna system of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with application embodiments.
应用实施例一Application Example 1
在本应用实施例中，基站根据自身与终端之间的无线信道变化情况调整天线阵列的水平空间位置。如图3所示，移动装置可使天线阵列水平移动，即横向移动，比如通过横向的滑动导轨等使天线阵列水平移动。In this application embodiment, the base station adjusts the horizontal spatial position of the antenna array according to the change of the wireless channel between itself and the terminal. As shown in FIG. 3, the mobile device can move the antenna array horizontally, that is, laterally, for example, by horizontally sliding the rail to move the antenna array horizontally.
5G***中使用的毫米波频段和6G***中的高频段技术需要LOS信道，即基站与终端之间形成直射路径，以形成有效覆盖。如图4所示，当天线阵列和终端之间存在直射路径时，基站可以通过波束赋形方式与终端通信。The millimeter wave frequency band used in the 5G system and the high frequency band technology in the 6G system require a LOS channel, that is, a direct path is formed between the base station and the terminal to form effective coverage. As shown in FIG. 4, when there is a direct path between the antenna array and the terminal, the base station can communicate with the terminal through beamforming.
当终端位置发生移动，且天线阵列和终端之间的直射路径被障碍物阻断时，也就是说，由于终端位置变化，天线阵列和终端之间的直射路径被障碍物阻断时，如图5所示，基站的波束也会受到遮挡。在这种情况下，基站控制移动装置使天线阵列自动水平移动，以使天线阵列和终端之间重新形成直射路径。如图6所示，当处于新位置的天线阵列和终端之间重新获得直射路径后，基站就可以继续通过波束赋形方式与终端通信。When the terminal position moves, and the direct path between the antenna array and the terminal is blocked by an obstacle, that is, due to the change in the terminal position, the direct path between the antenna array and the terminal is blocked by an obstacle, as shown in the figure As shown in 5, the beam of the base station is also blocked. In this case, the base station controls the mobile device to automatically move the antenna array horizontally so that a direct path is formed between the antenna array and the terminal. As shown in FIG. 6, after regaining the direct path between the antenna array and the terminal in the new position, the base station can continue to communicate with the terminal through beamforming.
应用实施例二Application Example 2
在本应用实施例中，基站根据自身与终端之间的无线信道变化情况调整天线阵列的垂直空间位置。如图7所示，移动装置可使天线阵列垂直移动，即纵向移动，比如通过纵向的滑动导轨等使天线阵列垂直移动。In this application embodiment, the base station adjusts the vertical spatial position of the antenna array according to the change of the wireless channel between itself and the terminal. As shown in FIG. 7, the mobile device can move the antenna array vertically, that is, vertically, for example, by vertically sliding the guide rails or the like.
5G***中使用的毫米波频段和6G***中的高频段技术需要LOS信道，即基站与终端之间形成直射路径，以形成有效覆盖。如图8所示，当天线阵列和终端之间存在直射路径时，基站可通过波束赋形方式与终端通信。The millimeter wave frequency band used in the 5G system and the high frequency band technology in the 6G system require a LOS channel, that is, a direct path is formed between the base station and the terminal to form effective coverage. As shown in FIG. 8, when there is a direct path between the antenna array and the terminal, the base station can communicate with the terminal through beamforming.
当在终端位置出现了新的障碍物(如其他用户)，该障碍物将天线阵列和终端之间的直射路径阻断时，即由于终端位置变化，天线阵列和终端之间的直射路径被障碍物遮挡时，如图9所示，基站的波束也会受到遮挡。在这种情况下，基站控制移动装置使天线阵列可自动纵向移动，以使天线阵列和终端之间重新获得直射路径。如图10所示，当处于新位置的天线阵列和终端之间重新获得直射路径后，基站就可以继续通过波束赋形方式与终端通信。When a new obstacle (such as another user) appears at the terminal position, the obstacle blocks the direct path between the antenna array and the terminal, that is, the direct path between the antenna array and the terminal is blocked due to the change in the terminal position When the object is blocked, as shown in FIG. 9, the beam of the base station is also blocked. In this case, the base station controls the mobile device so that the antenna array can automatically move longitudinally, so that the direct path is regained between the antenna array and the terminal. As shown in FIG. 10, when the direct path is regained between the antenna array and the terminal at the new location, the base station can continue to communicate with the terminal through beamforming.
应用实施例三Application Example 3
在本应用实施例中，基站根据自身与多个终端之间的无线信道变化调 整天线阵列的内部结构。天线阵列包含两个子天线阵列，基站天线阵列的两个子天线阵列可以合并使作为一个大的天线阵列用，(如图11a所示)，也可以***为两个水平分布的子天线阵列(如图11b所示)，每个子天线阵列单独使用。移动装置可使天线阵列***成两个子天线阵列，比如通过滑动导轨等使***成两个子天线阵列。In this application embodiment, the base station adjusts the internal structure of the antenna array according to the change of the wireless channel between itself and multiple terminals. The antenna array contains two sub-antenna arrays.
