Description
技术领域technical field
本发明属于无线通信领域,涉及一种信道质量测量方法,具体涉及一种基于接收端误差向量幅度的上行链路自适应系统的信道质量测量方法,适用于地面蜂窝通信系统、卫星通信系统、Massive-MIMO系统和点对点链路传输系统等无线通信系统。The invention belongs to the field of wireless communication, and relates to a channel quality measurement method, in particular to a channel quality measurement method of an uplink adaptive system based on the error vector magnitude of a receiving end, which is suitable for terrestrial cellular communication systems, satellite communication systems, Massive - Wireless communication systems such as MIMO systems and point-to-point link transmission systems.
背景技术Background technique
在无线通信系统中,信道是存在多径效应的时变信道,发射端如果知道信道的先验信息就可以选择更适合信道传输的调制方式和编码速率来发射数据,从而降低传输过程中各种因素对接收信号的影响,以更好的适应多变的信道传输条件,改善系统性能。由此可见,为了提升通信系统的性能,链路自适应的研究是十分必要。上行链路的自适应包括功率控制技术和速率控制技术。其中功率控制技术是通过动态调整发射功率,维持接收端一定的信噪比,从而保证链路的传输质量。而速率控制技术则是链路自适应主要采用的技术,也即常说的自适应调制和编码技术(AMC),eNodeB根据用户终端提供的信道环境变化的信息,动态地选择调制和编码的方式(MCS),在满足系统BLER限制的同时,最大化提升系统的性能,确保链路的传输质量。具体来说,就是离基站较近,信道条件较好的用户,会被分配高阶调制方式和较高的编码速率;而离基站较远,信道条件不好的用户,接收端为了保证正确的解调,需要更多的冗余信息,但较多的冗余信息会降低编码速率,因此分配的是低阶的调制方法和较低的编码速率。In a wireless communication system, the channel is a time-varying channel with multi-path effects. If the transmitter knows the prior information of the channel, it can select a modulation mode and coding rate that are more suitable for channel transmission to transmit data, thereby reducing various Factors affect the received signal to better adapt to changing channel transmission conditions and improve system performance. It can be seen that in order to improve the performance of the communication system, the research of link adaptation is very necessary. Uplink adaptation includes power control techniques and rate control techniques. The power control technology maintains a certain signal-to-noise ratio at the receiving end by dynamically adjusting the transmit power, thereby ensuring the transmission quality of the link. The rate control technology is the main technology used in link adaptation, which is often referred to as adaptive modulation and coding technology (AMC). The eNodeB dynamically selects the modulation and coding methods according to the channel environment change information provided by the user terminal. (MCS), which maximizes the performance of the system and ensures the transmission quality of the link while meeting the BLER limit of the system. Specifically, users who are closer to the base station and have better channel conditions will be assigned higher-order modulation methods and higher coding rates; while users who are far away from the base station and have poor channel conditions, the receiving end in order to ensure correct For demodulation, more redundant information is required, but more redundant information will reduce the coding rate, so a lower-order modulation method and a lower coding rate are allocated.
在上行链路自适应系统中,接收端需要向发射端反馈信道状态信息,这就需要进行信道质量测量,现有的方法一般采用信干噪比(SINR)来表征信道的传输质量,也就是将SINR作为信道质量测量的一个度量标准,接收端根据估计得到的SINR来进行MCS的选择,然后反馈给发射端,发射端根据反馈的信道质量信息,进行下一次传输参数的最优配置。对于这方面的研究大都集中在有效SINR的测量方面,其基本思想是首先估计出每个子载波的SINR,然后通过一定的映射方法,将这些子载波的SINR值映射成为一个能够反映整个链路平均性能的有效SINR,并根据此有效SINR来进行MCS的选择。常用的方法有指数有效SINR映射(EESM)算法、互信息有效SINR映射(MIESM)算法、每比特平均互信息(MMIB)算法、平均有效SINR映射(AESM)算法以及调和平均算法(Harm-mean)。其中EESM和MIESM这两种算法有着相似之处,都来源于有效SINR映射(ESM),区别在于它们使用的映射函数不同,分别为指数映射函数和有关互信息映射函数。但是在这两种算法中,其映射函数都包含有一个调谐因子,需要离线仿真得到,而其参数值大小取决于MCS、信道状态以及天线配置,所以很难达到最优,鲁棒性差,从而造成系统吞吐量性能的损失。MMIB指编码比特与其对数似然比(LLR)之间的平均互信息,MMIB信道质量测量指的是将无线信道等效为多个并行的比特LLR信道,通过计算编码比特与其对应的接收端LLR值之间的互信息将有效SINR和比特级平均互信息建立起一一对应关系,但是由于互信息的计算是十分复杂的,很难得到其精确的映射公式,所以MMIB算法的精确度较低,除此之外,该算法的性能极大程度上取决于调制阶数,也就是说此算法对于调制阶数的变化是十分敏感的,不适用具有时变特性的无线信道中。Harm-mean算法则是将多个子载波的SINR的调和平均数作为等效的SINR,而AESM算法认为在SC-FDMA系统中,所有子载波的SINR近似相等,所以可以用求平均的操作来简化计算。但是这两种方法有一定的局限性,只适用于频选不严重的场景,虽然这两种算法的复杂度较小,但其计算精确度相应较差。In the uplink adaptive system, the receiving end needs to feed back channel state information to the transmitting end, which requires channel quality measurement. The existing methods generally use the signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) to characterize the transmission quality of the channel, that is, Taking SINR as a metric for channel quality measurement, the receiving end selects MCS according to the estimated SINR, and then feeds it back to the transmitting end. The transmitting end performs the optimal configuration of the next transmission parameters according to the feedback channel quality information. Most of the research in this area focuses on the measurement of effective SINR. The basic idea is to first estimate the SINR of each sub-carrier, and then map the SINR values of these sub-carriers into a system that can reflect the average value of the entire link through a certain mapping method. The effective SINR of the performance, and MCS selection is performed according to this effective SINR. Commonly used methods include exponentially efficient SINR mapping (EESM) algorithm, mutual information efficient SINR mapping (MIESM) algorithm, average mutual information per bit (MMIB) algorithm, average effective SINR mapping (AESM) algorithm and harmonic mean algorithm (Harm-mean) . Among them, the two algorithms, EESM and MIESM, have similarities and are derived from effective SINR mapping (ESM). The difference is that they use different mapping functions, namely the exponential mapping function and the relevant mutual information mapping function. However, in these two algorithms, the mapping function contains a tuning factor, which needs to be obtained by offline simulation, and the parameter value depends on the MCS, channel state and antenna configuration, so it is difficult to achieve the optimal, and the robustness is poor, so This results in a loss of system throughput performance. MMIB refers to the average mutual information between the coded bits and their log-likelihood ratios (LLRs). MMIB channel quality measurement refers to the equivalent of a wireless channel as multiple parallel bit LLR channels. By calculating the coded bits and their corresponding receivers The mutual information between the LLR values establishes a one-to-one correspondence between the effective SINR and the bit-level average mutual information. However, since the calculation of mutual information is very complicated, it is difficult to obtain its precise mapping formula, so the accuracy of the MMIB algorithm is relatively low. In addition, the performance of the algorithm depends to a large extent on the modulation order, that is to say, the algorithm is very sensitive to the change of the modulation order, and is not suitable for wireless channels with time-varying characteristics. The Harm-mean algorithm takes the harmonic mean of the SINRs of multiple subcarriers as the equivalent SINR, while the AESM algorithm considers that in the SC-FDMA system, the SINRs of all subcarriers are approximately equal, so the average operation can be used to simplify calculate. However, these two methods have certain limitations, and are only suitable for scenarios where frequency selection is not serious. Although the complexity of these two algorithms is small, their calculation accuracy is correspondingly poor.
从以上分析可以看出,上述各方法相当于是一个多对一的映射,这样两个不同子信道的有效SINR可能是相同的,忽略了不同子信道间的差异,选择了相同的MCS,而此MCS对于这些子信道而言可能不都是最优的,所以测量精确度较低,鲁棒性较差,从而影响系统性能,造成吞吐量的下降。因此,将SINR作为信道质量的度量指标,则其测量值的精确度对于系统吞吐量性能的提升是非常关键的。但是,在无线通信中,影响SINR值变化的因素有很多,像衰落信道,干扰和噪声等,所以想要保证它的精确度是十分困难的,具有一定的挑战性。It can be seen from the above analysis that the above methods are equivalent to a many-to-one mapping, so the effective SINRs of two different sub-channels may be the same, ignoring the differences between different sub-channels, and selecting the same MCS, and this MCS may not all be optimal for these sub-channels, so the measurement accuracy is low and the robustness is poor, thus affecting the system performance and causing the throughput to drop. Therefore, if SINR is used as a measurement index of channel quality, the accuracy of its measurement value is very critical to the improvement of system throughput performance. However, in wireless communication, there are many factors that affect the change of SINR value, such as fading channel, interference and noise, etc., so it is very difficult and challenging to ensure its accuracy.
在上行链路中,信号经过信道由于受到噪声或者干扰的影响,会导致信号发生变化。若信道条件较好,信号经过信道的变化较小,反之,若信道条件较差,信号经过信道会发生较大的变化。因此除了传统的基于SINR的信道质量测量,还可以通过测量信号经过信道发生的变化程度,来对信道质量进行判断,而误差向量幅度EVM(Error Vector Magnitude)正是度量此变化的一个指标,因为干扰和噪声对信号的影响可以信号在星座图上与标准星座点的偏差直观的表现出来。接收端EVM定义为接收端误差矢量信号平均功率的平方根值和接收端参考信号平均功率的平方根值之间的比值。由此可见,接收端EVM的大小可以反映信道质量,信道条件较好时,信号受信道影响小,接收端EVM较小;信道条件较差时,信号受信道影响大,接收端EVM较大。并且相对于估计每个子载波的SINR,可以更容易的得到系统的接收端EVM。In the uplink, the signal will change due to the influence of noise or interference through the channel. If the channel condition is good, the change of the signal passing through the channel is small. On the contrary, if the channel condition is poor, the signal passing through the channel will change greatly. Therefore, in addition to the traditional channel quality measurement based on SINR, the channel quality can also be judged by measuring the degree of change of the signal passing through the channel, and the error vector magnitude EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) is an indicator to measure this change, because The influence of interference and noise on the signal can be shown intuitively by the deviation of the signal from the standard constellation point on the constellation diagram. The receiver EVM is defined as the ratio between the square root value of the average power of the receiver error vector signal and the square root value of the receiver reference signal average power. It can be seen that the size of the receiving end EVM can reflect the channel quality. When the channel condition is good, the signal is less affected by the channel and the receiving end EVM is small; when the channel condition is poor, the signal is greatly affected by the channel, and the receiving end EVM is large. And compared with estimating the SINR of each subcarrier, the EVM of the receiving end of the system can be obtained more easily.
