Description
技术领域 technical field
本发明涉及多根发射天线多根接收天线单载波频域均衡(MIMO-SCFDE)系统的信道估计方法,属于宽带无线通信技术领域。The invention relates to a channel estimation method for a single carrier frequency domain equalization (MIMO-SCFDE) system with multiple transmitting antennas and multiple receiving antennas, and belongs to the technical field of broadband wireless communication.
背景技术 Background technique
正交频分复用(以下简称OFDM:Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)是一种多载波传输技术,它用N个子载波把整个宽带信道分割成N个并行的相互正交的窄带子信道。Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (hereinafter referred to as OFDM: Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a multi-carrier transmission technology that uses N subcarriers to divide the entire broadband channel into N parallel narrowband subchannels that are orthogonal to each other.
OFDM系统有许多引人注目的优点:OFDM systems have many compelling advantages:
1.OFDM有非常高的频谱效率。OFDM的子信道间没有保护间隔,而且相邻子信道中信号的频谱主瓣还有重叠,大大提高了OFDM系统的频谱效率。1. OFDM has very high spectral efficiency. There is no guard interval between sub-channels of OFDM, and the spectrum main lobes of signals in adjacent sub-channels overlap, which greatly improves the spectral efficiency of OFDM systems.
2.抗多径干扰能力和抗衰落能力强。由于一般的OFDM系统均采用循环前缀(以下简称CP:Cyclic Prefix)方式,使得它在一定条件下可以完全消除多径传播引起的多径干扰,完全消除多径传播对载波正交性的破坏,因此OFDM系统具有很好的抗多径干扰能力;OFDM的子载波把整个宽带信道分成若干窄子信道,尽管整个宽带信道有可能是极不平坦的衰落信道,但在各个子信道上的衰落是近似平坦的,这使得OFDM信号的均衡特别简单,往往只需要一个抽头的均衡器即可。2. Strong anti-multipath interference ability and anti-fading ability. Since the general OFDM system adopts the cyclic prefix (hereinafter referred to as CP: Cyclic Prefix) method, it can completely eliminate the multipath interference caused by multipath propagation under certain conditions, and completely eliminate the destruction of carrier orthogonality caused by multipath propagation. Therefore, the OFDM system has a good ability to resist multipath interference; OFDM subcarriers divide the entire wideband channel into several narrow subchannels. Although the entire wideband channel may be a very uneven fading channel, the fading on each subchannel is Approximately flat, which makes the equalization of OFDM signals particularly simple, often requiring only a one-tap equalizer.
3.实现比较简单。当子信道上采用正交幅度调制(QAM:Quadrature Amplitude Modulation)或者多进制相移键控(MPSK:M-ary Phase Shift Keying)调制方式时,调制过程可以用离散傅里叶逆变换(以下简称IDFT:Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform)完成,解调过程可以用离散傅里叶变换(以下简称DFT:Discrete Fourier Transform)完成,它们可以用快速算法:快速傅立叶变换(以下简称FFT:Fast Fourier Transform)和快速傅立叶逆变换(以下简称IFFT:Inverse Fast Fourier Transform)实现。既不用多组振荡器产生载波信号,也不用带通滤波器组分离信号。3. The implementation is relatively simple. When the quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM: Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) or multi-ary phase shift keying (MPSK: M-ary Phase Shift Keying) modulation method is used on the sub-channel, the modulation process can use the inverse discrete Fourier transform (hereinafter Referred to as IDFT: Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform), the demodulation process can be completed by discrete Fourier transform (hereinafter referred to as DFT: Discrete Fourier Transform), and they can use a fast algorithm: Fast Fourier Transform (hereinafter referred to as FFT: Fast Fourier Transform) and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (hereinafter referred to as IFFT: Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) implementation. Neither multiple banks of oscillators are used to generate the carrier signal nor bandpass filter banks are used to separate the signals.
正是这些优点使得OFDM成为近十年来的研究热点,被认为是未来通信,特别是宽带无线通信的支撑技术。但OFDM系统自身的许多缺点,特别是它的峰值平均功率比(简称PAPR:Peak to Average Power Ratio)过大,限制着它的实用;而频域均衡的单载波(以下简称SC-FDE:Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization)具有OFDM上述优点,并且不存在OFDM的PAPR问题,性能和效率跟OFDM基本相当。PAPR问题是OFDM系统本身难以用低代价(频谱效率和功率效率)方式解决的问题,因此SC-FDE技术目前受到越来越多的重视。It is these advantages that make OFDM become a research hotspot in the past ten years, and it is considered as the supporting technology for future communication, especially broadband wireless communication. However, many shortcomings of the OFDM system itself, especially its peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR: Peak to Average Power Ratio) is too large, which limits its practicality; and frequency-domain balanced single carrier (hereinafter referred to as SC-FDE: Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization) has the above-mentioned advantages of OFDM, and there is no PAPR problem of OFDM, and its performance and efficiency are basically equivalent to OFDM. The PAPR problem is a problem that the OFDM system itself is difficult to solve with a low cost (spectrum efficiency and power efficiency), so SC-FDE technology is currently receiving more and more attention.
OFDM和SC-FDE都是基于CP的分块传输技术,在抗无线信道多径衰落环境方面表现出突出的优势,但它们的频谱效率仍然不是很高。近年来,基于多天线技术的多输入多输出(MIMO:Multiple-input Multiple-output)通信系统在频谱效率方面表现出了很大的优势,被普遍认为是未来无线通信的主要支撑技术之一。Both OFDM and SC-FDE are block transmission technologies based on CP, which show outstanding advantages in resisting multipath fading environment of wireless channels, but their spectrum efficiency is still not very high. In recent years, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO: Multiple-input Multiple-output) communication systems based on multi-antenna technology have shown great advantages in terms of spectral efficiency, and are generally considered to be one of the main supporting technologies for future wireless communications.
MIMO系统采用在发射端和接收端使用多天线的方式,利用天线间的分集效应以及无线环境中多径传输造成的不同天线之间信道特征的无关性,提高了信道容量,从而获得比单天线系统更大的频谱利用率,因此在愈加紧张的无线频谱资源和宽带通信中得到越来越多的关注。MIMO系统可以通过不同的方法获得抗信号衰落的分集增益或信道容量增益,一般来说,MIMO技术可以分为三类:The MIMO system adopts the method of using multiple antennas at the transmitting end and the receiving end, and utilizes the diversity effect between antennas and the independence of channel characteristics between different antennas caused by multi-path transmission in the wireless environment to improve the channel capacity, thereby obtaining a higher channel capacity than a single antenna. The greater spectrum utilization of the system has received more and more attention in the increasingly tight wireless spectrum resources and broadband communications. MIMO systems can obtain diversity gain against signal fading or channel capacity gain through different methods. Generally speaking, MIMO technologies can be divided into three categories:
(1)可以通过最大化空间分集提高功率效率,其主要方法包括:延时分集、空时分组码(STBC:Space-Time Block Codes)和空时网格码(STTC:Space-Time Trellis Codes);(1) Power efficiency can be improved by maximizing space diversity. The main methods include: delay diversity, space-time block codes (STBC: Space-Time Block Codes) and space-time trellis codes (STTC: Space-Time Trellis Codes) ;
(2)通过分层方法利用MIMO信道进行空间复用,提高系统的有效性,其中最常用的为G.J.Foschini等提出的V-BLAST算法;(2) Use the MIMO channel to perform spatial multiplexing through a layered method to improve the effectiveness of the system, among which the most commonly used is the V-BLAST algorithm proposed by G.J.Foschini et al.;
(3)在发送端利用信道状态信息,通过对信道矩阵应用奇异值(SVD:Singular ValueDecomposition)分解,使用分解的酉矩阵作为发送端和接收端的前向滤波器和后向滤波器可以达到极限容量。(3) Using channel state information at the sending end, by applying SVD (Singular Value Decomposition) decomposition to the channel matrix, using the decomposed unitary matrix as the forward filter and backward filter at the sending end and receiving end can reach the limit capacity .
随着MIMO技术的发展,很多研究者根据OFDM技术和MIMO技术的特点,形成了宽带MIMO-OFDM系统,极大的提高了带宽有效性,进一步提高了频谱利用率。简单的说,MIMO-OFDM系统是靠OFDM将宽带无线信道转化为若干个并行传输的窄带无线信道,使得宽带信道的时延扩展带来的问题比较容易处理;同时,每一个窄带信道又利用MIMO技术进行传输,从而获得很高的频谱效率。在MIMO-OFDM系统中为了获得好的性能,接收端往往采用V-BLAST检测算法或者相似的检测算法,其过程用到多次矩阵求伪逆,复杂度相对较高。由于SC-FDE和OFDM的相似性,SC-FDE也同样可以和MIMO结合形成MIMO-OFDM相似的系统:MIMO-SCFDE。With the development of MIMO technology, many researchers have formed a broadband MIMO-OFDM system according to the characteristics of OFDM technology and MIMO technology, which greatly improves the bandwidth effectiveness and further improves the spectrum utilization rate. Simply put, the MIMO-OFDM system converts the broadband wireless channel into several narrowband wireless channels transmitted in parallel by OFDM, which makes it easier to deal with the problems caused by the delay extension of the broadband channel; at the same time, each narrowband channel uses MIMO technology for transmission, resulting in high spectral efficiency. In order to obtain good performance in the MIMO-OFDM system, the receiver often uses the V-BLAST detection algorithm or a similar detection algorithm. The process uses multiple matrix pseudo-inversions, and the complexity is relatively high. Due to the similarity between SC-FDE and OFDM, SC-FDE can also be combined with MIMO to form a system similar to MIMO-OFDM: MIMO-SCFDE.
在无线通信环境中,一般情况下,发送信号通过多径传播,往往使信道存在明显的频率选择性衰落特性,OFDM和SC-FDE系统在接收端对信号进行频域均衡时需要估计出信道状态信息(CSI:Channel State Information),信道估计的精度直接影响系统的性能;同样,对于MIMO-OFDM和MIMO-SCFDE系统,在接收端大多数的信号检测算法也需要CSI,因此,信道估计在MIMO-OFDM和MIMO-SCFDE系统中往往也是必需的。In the wireless communication environment, under normal circumstances, the transmitted signal propagates through multipath, which often causes the channel to have obvious frequency selective fading characteristics. OFDM and SC-FDE systems need to estimate the channel state when performing frequency domain equalization on the signal at the receiving end. Information (CSI: Channel State Information), the accuracy of channel estimation directly affects the performance of the system; similarly, for MIMO-OFDM and MIMO-SCFDE systems, most signal detection algorithms at the receiving end also require CSI, therefore, channel estimation in MIMO -OFDM and MIMO-SCFDE systems are often required.
在单天线系统中,信道状态信息的估计一般采用发送训练序列或者采用一些盲估计算法得到。对于MIMO-OFDM系统的信道估计现在已经有很多相对成熟的方法,大致可以分为最小二乘(LS:Least Square)算法、线性最小均方误差算法、最大似然算法以及一些盲估计算法。虽然MIMO-OFDM和MIMO-SCFDE系统有很大的相似性,但它们在信道估计方法上存在不同:(1)MIMO-OFDM系统一般对于训练序列时域信号没有PAPR方面的要求,而对于MIMO-SCFDE系统训练序列时域信号的PAPR问题往往是系统不能承受的;(2)MIMO-OFDM信号在频域一般不存在PAPR问题,而MIMO-SCFDE信号要考虑其频域PAPR问题对信道估计的影响。因此,一般情况下,MIMO-OFDM系统的信道估计方法并不能直接用于MIMO-SCFDE系统的信道估计。In a single-antenna system, channel state information is generally estimated by sending training sequences or by using some blind estimation algorithms. There are many relatively mature methods for channel estimation of MIMO-OFDM systems, which can be roughly divided into least square (LS: Least Square) algorithm, linear minimum mean square error algorithm, maximum likelihood algorithm and some blind estimation algorithms. Although MIMO-OFDM and MIMO-SCFDE systems have great similarities, they are different in channel estimation methods: (1) MIMO-OFDM systems generally do not have PAPR requirements for training sequence time domain signals, while for MIMO-OFDM systems The PAPR problem of the time-domain signal of the training sequence of the SCFDE system is often unacceptable to the system; (2) MIMO-OFDM signals generally do not have the PAPR problem in the frequency domain, while the MIMO-SCFDE signal needs to consider the influence of its frequency-domain PAPR problem on channel estimation . Therefore, in general, channel estimation methods for MIMO-OFDM systems cannot be directly used for channel estimation in MIMO-SCFDE systems.
对于MIMO-SCFDE系统来说相应的信道估计算法还比较少,经过对现有技术的文献检索发现,只存在一种递归重构(RR:Recursive Reconstruction)算法,该方法采用一种特定的训练序列结构得到信道估计的部分信道状态信息初始值,然后通过递归重构逐步得到全部的信道状态信息,虽然该算法只使用一帧训练序列信号,提高了带宽的利用率,但其信道估计的精度不高,尤其随着发送接收的天线数量增多时,其信道估计的精度将会下降。For the MIMO-SCFDE system, there are still relatively few corresponding channel estimation algorithms. After searching the literature of the prior art, it is found that there is only one recursive reconstruction (RR: Recursive Reconstruction) algorithm, which uses a specific training sequence The structure obtains the initial value of part of the channel state information of channel estimation, and then gradually obtains all the channel state information through recursive reconstruction. Although the algorithm only uses one frame of training sequence signal, which improves the utilization rate of bandwidth, the accuracy of channel estimation is not as good as High, especially as the number of transmitting and receiving antennas increases, the accuracy of channel estimation will decrease.

本发明针对现有MIMO-SCFDE系统信道估计算法技术存在的问题,提供一种信道估计精度高的基于正交训练序列的MIMO-SCFDE系统信道估计方法。The invention aims at the problems existing in the channel estimation algorithm technology of the existing MIMO-SCFDE system, and provides a channel estimation method of the MIMO-SCFDE system based on an orthogonal training sequence with high channel estimation accuracy.
本发明的基于正交训练序列的MIMO-SCFDE系统信道估计方法,包括以下实现步骤:The MIMO-SCFDE system channel estimation method based on the orthogonal training sequence of the present invention comprises the following implementation steps:
(1)在发送端,首先根据发射天线的个数设计正交训练序列,然后将设计好的训练序列按照相应顺序通过各个发射天线发送出去;(1) At the sending end, first design an orthogonal training sequence according to the number of transmitting antennas, and then send the designed training sequence through each transmitting antenna in a corresponding order;
(2)在各个接收天线将接收到的信号暂存,等到接收到所有训练序列的信号后,先变换到频域,然后在每个发射接收对应的天线之间按照各个频域子信道求解线性方程组,得到对应的发送接收天线之间的各个频域子信道状态信息;(2) Temporarily store the received signals at each receiving antenna, wait until all the training sequence signals are received, first transform to the frequency domain, and then solve the linearity according to each frequency domain sub-channel between the antennas corresponding to each transmitting and receiving Equations to obtain the state information of each frequency-domain sub-channel between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas;
(3)时域加窗,去除噪声的影响,将得到的对应的发射接收天线之间的信道状态信息变换到时域,对时域信道加窗,去除噪声对信道估计值的影响,再变换到频域得到信道估计值。(3) Windowing in the time domain to remove the influence of noise, transform the obtained channel state information between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas into the time domain, add windowing to the channel in the time domain, remove the influence of noise on the channel estimate, and then transform into the frequency domain to obtain channel estimates.
上述各步骤的详细实现方法如下:The detailed implementation method of the above steps is as follows:
第(1)步,在发送端,首先根据发射天线的个数设计正交训练序列,然后将设计好的训练序列按照相应顺序通过各个发射天线发送出去;Step (1), at the sending end, first design an orthogonal training sequence according to the number of transmitting antennas, and then send the designed training sequence through each transmitting antenna in a corresponding order;
根据发射天线的个数设计训练序列的具体方法为:The specific method of designing the training sequence according to the number of transmitting antennas is as follows:
假设发射天线的个数为Nt,接收天线的个数为Nr,为了在接收端能够通过解方程的方法得到各个对应的发射接收天线之间的全部的频域子信道信息,需要在发送端每个天线上都发送Nt个训练序列,并且设计训练序列时要保证求解线性方程组时系数矩阵满秩,在各个频域子信道上,使得各个发送天线上前后发送的训练序列数据正交就能够满足上述条件,设计训练序列时还要同时考虑训练序列信号在时域和频域产生的PAPR问题,应尽量避免训练序列信号在时域、频域存在PAPR问题。Assuming that the number of transmitting antennas is Nt and the number of receiving antennas is Nr, in order to obtain all the frequency-domain sub-channel information between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas at the receiving end by solving the equation, it is necessary to Nt training sequences are sent on each antenna, and when designing the training sequence, it is necessary to ensure that the coefficient matrix is full rank when solving the linear equation system. On each frequency domain sub-channel, the training sequence data sent before and after each transmitting antenna are orthogonal to each other. If the above conditions are met, the PAPR problem of the training sequence signal in the time domain and frequency domain should also be considered when designing the training sequence, and the PAPR problem of the training sequence signal in the time domain and frequency domain should be avoided as much as possible.
下面以Nt=2,Nr=2为例进行说明:Let's take Nt=2, Nr=2 as an example to illustrate:
假设第p根接收天线,第q根发射天线之间的离散时域信道脉冲响应为hp,q={hp,q;l,l=0,1,…,L-1},其中L为离散时域信道长度;离散时域信道脉冲响应做FFT变换后得到频域形式为Hp,q={Hp,q;n,n=0,1,…,N-1},其中N为SC-FDE一帧信号的长度;Assuming the p-th receiving antenna, the discrete time-domain channel impulse response between the q-th transmitting antenna is h p,q ={h p,q;l ,l=0,1,...,L-1}, where L is the channel length in the discrete time domain; the frequency domain form obtained after the FFT transformation of the channel impulse response in the discrete time domain is Hp, q={H p, q; n , n=0, 1,..., N-1}, where N is The length of one frame of SC-FDE signal;
对于Nt=2的系统,要在接收端通过求解线性方程组求出对应的各个子信道的信道状态,则需要通过在每个发射天线上发送两帧训练序列,并且在各个频域子信道上不同天线前后发送的训练序列数据正交,假设si,q={si,q;n,n=0,1,…,N-1},i=1,2,q=1,2,表示第q个天线上发送的第i帧训练序列数据的时域形式,Si,q={Si,q;n,n=0,1,…,N-1},i=1,2,q=1,2,表示第q个天线上发送的第i帧训练序列数据的频域形式,训练序列数据形成训练序列矩阵:For a system with Nt=2, in order to obtain the channel state of each sub-channel by solving the linear equations at the receiving end, it is necessary to send two frames of training sequences on each transmit antenna, and in each frequency domain sub-channel The training sequence data sent before and after different antennas are orthogonal, assuming s i, q = {s i, q; n , n=0, 1,..., N-1}, i=1, 2, q=1, 2, Represents the time-domain form of the i-th frame of training sequence data sent on the q-th antenna, S i, q = {S i, q; n , n=0, 1,..., N-1}, i=1, 2 , q=1, 2, represents the frequency domain form of the i-th frame of training sequence data sent on the qth antenna, and the training sequence data forms a training sequence matrix:
时域形式:
频域形式:
为了满足以上所说的正交性,例如,可以令
其中s为一帧时域训练序列信号,S为对应的频域形式,实际上并不局限于这种形式,只要满足以上正交条件即可。Where s is a time-domain training sequence signal of one frame, and S is the corresponding frequency-domain form, which is actually not limited to this form, as long as the above orthogonal conditions are met.
设计训练序列时还要同时考虑训练序列信号在时域和频域产生的PAPR问题,应尽量使训练序列信号在时域、频域的PAPR小,例如,可以考虑使用Chu序列或者Newmann序列以及在其基础上进行各种变换得到的序列,例如可以采用循环移位,得到具有同样性质的序列;Chu序列在时域和频域都有恒定的幅度,长度为N的Chu序列可以由下式产生:When designing the training sequence, the PAPR problem generated by the training sequence signal in the time domain and frequency domain should also be considered, and the PAPR of the training sequence signal in the time domain and frequency domain should be made as small as possible. For example, the use of Chu sequence or Newmann sequence and in the The sequence obtained by performing various transformations on the basis, for example, can use cyclic shift to obtain a sequence with the same properties; the Chu sequence has a constant amplitude in the time domain and the frequency domain, and the Chu sequence with a length of N can be generated by the following formula :
其中Z和N互质;where Z and N are mutually prime;
Newmann序列是另外一种在时域和频域都有恒定幅度的序列,而且构造起来比较简单,比较适合SC-FDE系统的信道估计,长度为N的Newmann序列可以由下式产生:Newmann sequence is another sequence with constant amplitude in time domain and frequency domain, and its construction is relatively simple, which is more suitable for channel estimation of SC-FDE system. A Newmann sequence with a length of N can be generated by the following formula:
第(2)步,在各个接收天线将接收到的信号暂存,等到接收到所有训练序列的信号后,先变换到频域,然后在每个发射接收对应的天线之间按照各个频域子信道求解线性方程组,得到对应的发送接收天线之间的各个频域子信道状态信息;In step (2), the received signals are temporarily stored at each receiving antenna, and after all the training sequence signals are received, they are converted to the frequency domain first, and then each frequency domain is used between the corresponding antennas for each transmission and reception. The channel solves the linear equations to obtain the state information of each frequency domain sub-channel between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas;
在每个发射接收对应的天线之间按照各个频域子信道求解线性方程组的方法为:The method of solving the linear equations according to each frequency domain sub-channel between the antennas corresponding to each transmission and reception is:
假设第i帧第q根发射天线发送的信号在第p根接收天线上接收到的信号为:Assume that the signal sent by the qth transmit antenna in the i-th frame is received by the p-th receive antenna as:
ri,p,q={ri,p,q;n,n=0,1,…,N-1}r i, p, q = {r i, p, q; n , n=0, 1, ..., N-1}
ri,p为第i帧第p根接收天线上接收到的信号,由于CP的作用,在离散时域上,把信号与信道脉冲响应的线性卷积转化为循环卷积,则有:r i, p is the signal received on the pth receiving antenna in the i-th frame. Due to the effect of CP, in the discrete time domain, the linear convolution of the signal and the channel impulse response is converted into circular convolution, then:
其中,vi,p={vi,p;n,n=0,1,…,N-1}为第i帧第p根接收天线接收信号包含的加性高斯白噪声;Wherein, v i, p = {v i, p; n , n=0, 1, ..., N-1} is the additive white Gaussian noise contained in the signal received by the pth receiving antenna in the i frame;
变换到频域:Transform to the frequency domain:
Ri,p=FFT{ri,p}={Ri,p;n,n=0,1,…,N-1}R i,p =FFT{r i,p }={R i,p;n ,n=0,1,...,N-1}
时域循环卷积在频域表现为相乘:Circular convolution in the time domain behaves as a multiplication in the frequency domain:
其中,Vi,p为加性高斯白噪声的频域形式;Among them, V i, p is the frequency domain form of additive Gaussian white noise;
通过以上关系就能够通过求解方程组的形式得到信道状态信息。Through the above relationship, the channel state information can be obtained by solving a system of equations.
同样以Nt=2,Nr=2为例说明求解两个发射天线到第一个接收天线之间第n个频域子信道信息状态信息的方法:Also take Nt=2, Nr=2 as an example to illustrate the method of solving the state information of the nth frequency domain sub-channel information between the two transmitting antennas and the first receiving antenna:
直接解方程组即可得到:Solving the system of equations directly gives:
实际上,通过前面对于训练序列正交设计,可以利用矩阵正交性简化对上式的求解,根据矩阵正交性理论,正交矩阵的逆可以由其共轭转秩矩阵得到:In fact, through the previous orthogonal design of the training sequence, the matrix orthogonality can be used to simplify the solution of the above formula. According to the matrix orthogonality theory, the inverse of the orthogonal matrix can be obtained by its conjugate rank matrix:
其中,AH表示矩阵A的共轭转秩矩阵;因此,解方程组时并不需要对矩阵求逆运算,大大降低求解复杂性,同时这种求解是不放大噪声的;另外,对于固定的训练序列其值是特定的,可以提前将要使用的计算数据暂存,不需要进行多次重复计算;Among them, A H represents the conjugate rank matrix of matrix A; therefore, it is not necessary to invert the matrix when solving the equation system, which greatly reduces the complexity of the solution, and at the same time, this solution does not amplify the noise; in addition, for a fixed The value of the training sequence is specific, and the calculation data to be used can be temporarily stored in advance, without repeated calculations;
其余信道状态信息求解方法和以上方法相同,全部求解完成后就会得到所有的对应的发送接收天线之间的各个频域子信道状态信息;The rest of the channel state information solution method is the same as the above method, and all the corresponding frequency domain sub-channel state information between the transmitting and receiving antennas will be obtained after all the solutions are completed;
第(3)步,时域加窗,去除噪声的影响,将得到的对应的发射接收天线之间的信道状态信息变换到时域,对时域信道加窗,去除噪声对信道估计值的影响,再变换到频域得到信道估计值;Step (3), windowing in the time domain to remove the influence of noise, transform the obtained channel state information between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas into the time domain, and windowing the channel in the time domain to remove the influence of noise on the channel estimate , and then transformed to the frequency domain to obtain the channel estimate;
将得到的对应的发射接收天线之间的信道状态信息变换到时域,对时域信道加窗的具体方法为:Transform the obtained channel state information between the corresponding transmitting and receiving antennas into the time domain, and the specific method of windowing the time domain channel is as follows:
假设h′p,q为变换后的时域信道脉冲响应,即:Suppose h′ p, q is the transformed time-domain channel impulse response, namely:
h′p,q=IFFT{Hp,q}h′ p, q = IFFT{H p, q }
h″p,q表示加窗后的时域信道脉冲响应,可以由下式得到:h″ p, q represent the time-domain channel impulse response after windowing, which can be obtained by the following formula:
h″p,q=h′p,qWh″ p, q = h′ p, q W
其中W是加窗矩阵,为对角矩阵,对角元素在信道时延扩展范围内为1,其余全是0;Among them, W is a windowing matrix, which is a diagonal matrix, and the diagonal elements are 1 within the channel delay extension range, and the rest are all 0;
然后再经过FFT变换到频域:Then transform to the frequency domain through FFT:
H′p,q=FFT{h″p,q}H′ p, q = FFT{h″ p, q }
H′p,q即为要得的信道估计值。H' p, q is the estimated value of the channel to be obtained.
信道时延扩展可以用估计方法得到,为现有公知技术,可以参考相关文献,在此不做讨论。The channel delay spread can be obtained by an estimation method, which is a well-known technology in the prior art, and related documents can be referred to, so it will not be discussed here.
