Embodiment
Because between the terminal is not by the base station, but direct communication, so in the power control mode of end-to-end direct communication, network side institute's role in the proper communication power control mode can be replaced by relevant terminal.In addition because the characteristic of end-to-end direct communication has determined that the channel circumstance between two terminals generally will be got well with respect to the environment of proper communication, so the step-length of power control is less than 1dB between them; Even there do not have power control also can keep end-to-end direct communication fully under certain mode to be required.Because network terminal role in communication is substituted by terminal when end-to-end direct communication, carry out so corresponding control function of power also can move to end by network terminal, and because the concrete implementation of difference of position also can be different.
Beacon channel (perch channel) is arranged, so terminal can be according to beacon channel estimating path loss between base station and the terminal in NB TDD CDMA; But between end-to-end, communicating by letter, owing to there is not beacon channel, in addition owing to open Loop Power control and inaccuracy, so end-to-end direct communication is not used open Loop Power control except using the open Loop Power control in communication process when channel is set up.
Concerning the exterior ring power control of NB TDD cdma system, the calculating of up power control BLER and then the calculating of signal-noise ratio threshold value (SIR target) are located to carry out at RNC (radio network controller) in the proper communication, and descending power control is then carried out in end; Under the situation of end-to-end direct communication, the control of the exterior ring power of both direction all should be carried out at the relevant terminal place, and RNC there is no need to participate in once more exterior ring power control fully.If RNC participates in the exterior ring power control of end-to-end direct communication, then can increase signaling consumption and time delay between terminal and the RNC.
Concerning the closed power control of NB TDD cdma system, the step-length of TPC is a RRC (Radio Resource control) signaling in the proper communication, in the control of DL (descending) DPCH (DPCH) power is optional, and in the control of UL (up) DPCH power, be compulsory, and when setting up, channel passes to terminal by RNC with the external circule power control parameter; But in end-to-end direct communication, network terminal is not really understood the channel conditions of this moment, there is no need equally and may participate in closed-loop power control again, for reducing signaling consumption and the time delay between terminal and the network, the TPC order of both direction not only should all be produced by terminal, and the step-length of TPC also should be adjusted according to channel situation by terminal.
Two terminals distances are very near when considering end-to-end direct communication, the situation when channel circumstance is better than proper communication, and the decline of channel is inviolent, and the step-length of TPC just there is no need to continue to continue to use 1,2, the span of 3dB.At this moment should consider littler step-length, such as 0.5dB, even 0.25dB.Can save end cell like this, and reduce interference near the terminal of proper communication.Even when meeting some requirements, the closed-loop power control of end-to-end direct communication can temporarily stop, and at this moment the transmitting power of terminal keeps constant.The present invention is directed to closed-loop power control, provided a kind of implementation method.
At end-to-end direct communication process in the NB TDD cdma system, do not need the forwarding and the control (may still exist some necessary signalings to connect between terminal and the network) of network terminal owing to the Business Stream between two terminals, but directly transmission between two terminals should also must be transferred to relevant terminal and goes to finish so be present in the control function of power of network terminal originally.
Because there is not beacon channel in end-to-end direct communication, so exist except terminal
Direct communication will use beyond the open loop power control at the beginning of setting up channel, and open Loop Power control is not
Be applicable to end-to-end direct communication.
End-to-end direct communication adopts external circule power control and closed-loop power control, but is different from proper communication
Be:
The external circule power control function of carrying out at RNC in the proper communication is transferred to the relevant terminal place and is held
OK;
The closed-loop power control function of carrying out at Node B in the proper communication is transferred to the relevant terminal place
Carry out;
Than the proper communication closed-loop power control, end-to-end direct communication should be adopted littler TPC
Suspend closed-loop power control under step-length even the AD HOC; And at end-to-end direct communication spy
Point has provided the closed-loop power control scheme of a variable step.
In order to solve the problem of end-to-end direct communication power control in the NB TDD cdma system, the present invention proposes a kind of Poewr control method.The present invention is a complete power control process, but for sake of convenience, can be decomposed into following three aspects and be illustrated:
(1) open Loop Power control of end-to-end direct communication
In NB TDD CDMA, between base station and the terminal beacon channel is arranged, so terminal can be according to beacon channel estimating path loss in proper communication; But between end-to-end, communicating by letter, owing to there is not beacon channel, in addition owing to open Loop Power control and inaccuracy, so end-to-end direct communication is not used open Loop Power control except using the open Loop Power control in communication process when channel is set up.
(2) exterior ring power of end-to-end direct communication control
In end-to-end direct communication, exterior ring power control is all carried out two end, and RNC no longer participates in exterior ring power control.
Concerning the exterior ring power control of NB TDD cdma system, the calculating of the calculating of up power control BLER (the transmission block error rate) and then signal-noise ratio threshold value (SIR target) is carried out at the RNC place in the proper communication, and descending power control is then carried out in end; Under the situation of end-to-end direct communication, the control of the exterior ring power of both direction all should be carried out at the relevant terminal place, and RNC there is no need to participate in once more exterior ring power control fully.If RNC participates in the exterior ring power control of end-to-end direct communication, then can increase signaling consumption and time delay between terminal and the RNC.
Can be in the exterior ring power control algolithm that end is carried out with reference to the exterior ring power control algolithm of proper communication, only variation has taken place in Kong Zhi main body.Fig. 2 has provided the reference algorithm of the exterior ring power control of end-to-end direct communication.
(3) closed power of end-to-end direct communication control
The closed power control of end-to-end direct communication is all carried out two end, this point is different from the mode that needs Node B to carry out uplink closed loop in the proper communication fully, and the step-length of TPC is also produced and is adjusted by terminal, and RNC no longer participates in the control to the TPC step-length.
Concerning the closed power control of NB TDD cdma system, the step-length of TPC is a RRC signaling in the proper communication, in the control of DL (descending) DPCH power is optional, and in the control of UL DPCH power, be compulsory, and when setting up, channel passes to terminal by RNC with the external circule power control parameter; But in end-to-end direct communication, Node B does not really understand the channel conditions of this moment, there is no need equally and may participate in closed-loop power control again, for reducing signaling consumption and the time delay between terminal and the network, the TPC order of both direction not only should all be produced by terminal, and the step-length of TPC also should be made concrete adjustment by the terminal generation and according to channel situation.The TPC step-length is placed on end, and is very little to the change meeting of terminal thus, and required cost only will be stored the nearest order of TPC several times.
Because two terminals distances are very near when considering end-to-end direct communication, the situation when channel circumstance is better than proper communication, the decline of channel is inviolent, so the step-length of TPC just there is no need to continue to continue to use 1,2, the span of 3dB.At this moment should consider littler step-length, such as 0.5dB, even 0.25dB.Can save end cell like this, and reduce interference near the terminal of proper communication.Even when meeting some requirements, the closed-loop power control of end-to-end direct communication can temporarily stop, and at this moment the transmitting power of terminal keeps constant.The present invention is directed to the closed-loop power control of end-to-end direct communication, provided a kind of implementation method, with reference to figure 3.
Fig. 1 has described the overall power control mode of end-to-end direct communication in the NB TDD cdma system
Required parameter such as the TPC order of the up-downgoing closed power control that terminal and network side carry out in 101 proper communications is finished by relevant terminal and Node B; Required parameter such as the path loss of up open Loop Power control is then calculated according to the Beacon Channel that Node B sends;
Terminal is calculated and passed to desired parameters such as up sir target threshold value then by RNC during desired parameters such as TPC step-length and exterior ring power were controlled in the closed power control that terminal and network side carry out in 102 proper communications;
Power control mode in the 103 end-to-end direct communications will be finished by two terminals of direct communication; At the beginning of the channel of direct communication was set up, some basic signaling initial values can pass to terminal by network side, but the power of channel after setting up then independently controlled by terminal, and network side no longer participates in; Concrete power control scheme is as follows: use open loop power control when a) channel is set up; B) channel is set up the back and is used closed-loop power control, and the TPC order of both direction produces by terminal, and the TPC step-length is also produced and adjusted by terminal; C) calculating of external circule power control such as sir target threshold value etc. is also finished by terminal; D) good at channel circumstance, and can suspend power control when satisfying certain condition.
Fig. 2 has described the outer-loop power controlling method of end-to-end direct communication in the NB TDD cdma system.
201 beginnings
202 in two terminal A and B of end-to-end direct communication, and terminal A receives the data of self terminal B;
203 terminal A compare the measured value of BLER and the size of BLER desired value after CRC (cyclic redundancy check (CRC)) verification;
If 204 BLER measured values are greater than desired value, increase the sir target value of next TTI so, adjusted result is: Eb/N0_target (n+1)=Eb/N0_target (n)+Step_size205 otherwise, reduce the sir target value of next TTI, adjusted result is:
Eb/N0_target(n+1)=Eb/N0_target(n)-Step_size
206 use the sir target value (Eb/N0_target) that obtains recently relatively to produce the TPC order with the sir measurement value in inner-loop power control
207 finish
Wherein, Eb/N0_target (n) is that the Eb/N0 target door limit value BLER_target of n TTI is that the BLER target door limit value Step_size that calls out is the step-length that the sir target threshold value is adjusted
Fig. 3 has described the close-loop power controlling method of end-to-end direct communication.
301 beginnings;
302 according to current TSS value, and the TPC order that terminal receives from another terminal increases or reduce corresponding power;
303 terminals receive the TPC order from another terminal, and nearest M the TPC that statistics receives orders;
Whether 304 recipients judge has the N of being no less than a TPC order indication to increase power continuously in nearest M the TPC order;
If 305 have the N of being no less than a TPC order indication to increase power continuously, this means that channel is experiencing the deep fading, so just increase the TSS value and significantly increase power according to newly-increased TSS value;
306 judge whether TPC order subsequently indicates minimizing power;
If 307 subsequently TPC order indications reduce power, mean that the deep fading finishes, because the late effect of closed-loop power control, so should continue to increase TSS, and use new TSS value significantly to reduce power to prevent the excessive adjustment of power, recover the TSS value then and be algorithm initial value and return the algorithm top;
308 recipients are according to the TPC order of nearest a succession of reception, if certain pattern is satisfied in the TPC that receives order, increase and alternately appearance of power reception as power, and reach certain number of times, this accident present power control shake up and down on certain power level, so just carries out following operation:
309 judge whether the value of TSS has reached minimum value;
If 310 do not reach minimum value, reduce the value of TSS so, can reduce the jitter range of power control like this, approach desirable power level, and reduce interference the sub-district, save battery;
If 311 have reached minimum value, it is minimum that the control range of so present power control has reached, and can suspend power control so, keeps present power level constant;
312 finish.
Wherein, TSS:TPC Step size (adjustment step-length), the adjustment step-length M of power control command, N, X: the integer constant that algorithm is given.
