Description

Synchronization method, synchronization device, chip and module equipment

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a synchronization method, apparatus, chip, and module device.

Background

In a communication system, if normal communication needs to be realized between communication devices, it is necessary to ensure time synchronization between the two communication parties, that is, a receiver needs to receive data according to the starting and ending time of sending an information unit by a sender, so as to accurately receive the data sent by the sender. However, in the actual communication process, various factors such as interference, noise, and difference in clock accuracy between two communication parties cause deviation of time synchronization between the two communication parties. Therefore, in the mobile communication system, timing synchronization adjustment needs to be performed at the receiving end; to ensure that the receiver is synchronized in time with the sender. In addition to the timing synchronization estimation described above, the synchronization estimation algorithm can also be used for frequency synchronization estimation.

In general, the aim of studying synchronization estimation algorithms is to improve the accuracy of synchronization estimation and reduce error values, but the accuracy of synchronization estimation is easily affected by the channel environment. In the face of complex channel environment, if the synchronization estimation value calculated by the synchronization algorithm is directly used for the synchronization estimation of the system, estimation errors are easily introduced into the system, and adverse effects are caused. In order to solve the problem, a synchronization estimation value obtained by a synchronization algorithm may be gradually introduced into the system, and the conventional method is to divide the currently estimated synchronization estimation value by a weighting factor, and then add the previously determined synchronization adjustment value, that is, the synchronization adjustment value determined this time, if the weighting factor is assumed to be 5, if the first synchronization estimation value is determined by the first synchronization estimation algorithm to be 100, the first synchronization adjustment value is determined to be 20, and if the second synchronization estimation value is determined by the second synchronization estimation algorithm to be 100, the second synchronization adjustment value is determined to be 40, that is, the second synchronization estimation value 100 is divided by the weighting factor 5, and then add the first synchronization adjustment value 20, and as the number of times of synchronization estimation is greater, the determined synchronization adjustment value approaches to the actual time offset or frequency offset.

The weighting factors can reduce the negative effect of the error on the system, but correspondingly, the sensitivity of the system to the synchronization variation caused by the normal variation of the channel environment is reduced due to the influence of the weighting factors. If the weighting factor is selected too large, when the synchronization estimation value is large, the accurate synchronization adjustment value can be determined only by adjusting for many times, and the mode possibly causes long locking time, thereby affecting the performance of the system in the time; if the selection is too small, the effect of protecting the estimation error is reduced. How to determine an appropriate weighting factor is an urgent problem to be solved.

The following describes the synchronization estimation method provided in the embodiments of the present application in further detail:

referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a synchronization estimation method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the synchronization estimation method includes the following steps 201 to 203. The method execution subject shown in fig. 2 may be a terminal device, or the execution subject may be a chip in the terminal device. Fig. 2 illustrates an execution subject of the method by taking the terminal device as an example. The execution main bodies of the synchronization estimation methods shown in other figures of the embodiment of the present application are the same, and are not described in detail later. Wherein:

201. and the terminal equipment determines the weighting factor according to one or more of the error range of the synchronization algorithm, the current channel environment type and the bit error rate variation.

In the embodiment of the application, the synchronization algorithm is generally used for performing time offset estimation or frequency offset estimation, and the time offset or frequency offset between the terminal device and the network device is predicted according to the known time offset or frequency offset when the terminal device and the network device transmit data.

For example, the terminal device may determine the error range of the synchronization algorithm by: and simulating the synchronous algorithm to operate in different channel scenes in advance to obtain a simulation result, and determining the estimation error range of the estimation algorithm according to the simulation result.

For example, the terminal device may determine the current channel environment type by detecting current channel data information, where the channel environment type may include an Extended pedestrian channel model (EPA) channel, an Extended vehicle channel model (EVA) channel, and an Extended Typical Urban (ETU) channel.

The bit error rate refers to a proportion of bit numbers with errors in the total number of transmitted bits, the bit error rate variation refers to a variation situation of the current bit error rate, that is, the bit error rate is gradually increased or gradually decreased, and the terminal device can obtain the variation quantity of the bit error rate according to the decoding situation of the bottom layer.

In a possible implementation manner, the specific implementation manner of determining the weighting factor by the terminal device may be: determining a prior factor according to the error range of the synchronous algorithm; determining a channel factor according to the current channel environment type; determining a decoding factor according to the bit error rate variable quantity; and determining the value of the weighting factor as the sum of the prior factor, the channel factor and the decoding factor after being multiplied by the corresponding preset coefficients respectively. Based on the method described in the present application, the weighting factor can be determined by a plurality of parameters, which is beneficial to help the terminal device determine a more appropriate weighting factor.

Alternatively, the weighting factor may be a flat of the prior factor, the channel factor and the decoding factorOr the average value, or the prior factor, the channel factor and the decoding factor are added according to different coefficient proportions. For example, the weighting factor α ₀ Can be represented by the formula

Is determined in which ₁ A priori factor, α ₂ Is the channel factor and alpha ₃ For the decoding factor, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the determination manner of the weighting factor.

The larger the estimation error range is, the larger the prior factor is, the smaller the estimation error range is, and the smaller the prior factor is; the faster the channel environment change corresponding to the current channel environment type is, the smaller the channel factor is, the slower the channel environment change is, and the larger the channel factor is; the bit error rate variation can be a positive value or a negative value and 0, the bit error rate variation is a positive value, namely the bit error rate has a trend of increasing, the bit error rate variation is a negative value, namely the bit error rate has a trend of decreasing; the larger the bit error rate variation, the larger the decoding factor, and the smaller the bit error rate variation, the smaller the decoding factor.

202. And the terminal equipment determines a first synchronization adjustment value according to the first synchronization estimation value obtained by the synchronization algorithm and the weighting factor.

In one possible implementation, the conventional way of determining the first synchronization adjustment value is that the first synchronization adjustment value may be equal to the first synchronization estimate divided by a weighting factor, plus the synchronization adjustment value determined before the synchronization instant. For example, assuming that the weighting factor is 5, a synchronization estimation has already been performed before outputting the current first synchronization adjustment value, the synchronization estimation value determined by the current synchronization estimation algorithm performed before the current time is the second synchronization estimation value 100, the synchronization adjustment value is determined to be the second synchronization adjustment value 20, and if the current synchronization estimation algorithm determines that the first synchronization estimation value is 100, the first synchronization adjustment value is output to be 40, that is, the first synchronization estimation value 100 is divided by the weighting factor 5, and the second synchronization adjustment value 20 is added. This implementation is only one possibility proposed in the embodiments of the present application, and there may be other ways of determining the first synchronization adjustment value. The specific implementation manner of step 202 may refer to step 302 to step 310 in subsequent fig. 3, which is not described herein again in this embodiment of the present application.

203. The terminal device synchronizes based on the first synchronization adjustment value.

In this embodiment, the terminal device may perform time offset synchronization estimation and frequency offset synchronization estimation based on the first synchronization adjustment value. The first synchronization adjustment value is determined according to the weighting factor, which can avoid errors caused by the synchronization algorithm. Meanwhile, the weighting factor is determined by the error range of the synchronization algorithm, the current channel environment type and the bit error rate variation, so that the determined weighting factor can be more suitable for the synchronization algorithm, the channel environment and the channel variation adopted by the current terminal equipment. Based on the method, the terminal equipment can be synchronized with the network equipment more accurately.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart of another synchronization estimation method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 3, the synchronization estimation method includes the following steps 301 to 311, where steps 301 and 311 are respectively the same as the specific implementation manners of steps 201 and 203, and are not described herein again in this embodiment of the application, and steps 302 to 310 are a specific implementation manner of step 202.

301. And the terminal equipment determines the weighting factor according to one or more of the error range of the synchronization algorithm, the current channel environment type and the bit error rate variation.

After step 301 is executed, the terminal device determines whether the first synchronization estimation value satisfies a first preset condition or a second preset condition, if the first synchronization estimation value satisfies the first preset condition, step 301 is executed, if the first synchronization estimation value satisfies the second preset condition, step 306 is executed, and if the first synchronization estimation value does not satisfy the first preset condition and the second preset condition, step 310 is executed.

302. If the first synchronization estimation value meets a first preset condition, the terminal equipment increases the value of the first counter by a unit value and adds the first synchronization estimation value into the first set.

In an embodiment of the present application, the first predetermined condition is that an absolute value of the first synchronization estimation value is smaller than the weighting factor. Because the absolute value of the first synchronization estimation value is smaller than the weighting factor, the processing is carried out by adopting a conventional method, namely the first synchronization adjustment value is equal to the synchronization estimation value estimated at the current time divided by the weighting factor, and a certain error may exist in addition to the previously determined synchronization adjustment value. Since the first synchronization estimate is divided by the weighting factor, resulting in a quotient of 0 and a remainder of the first synchronization estimate, if the remainder is directly applied in determining the first synchronization adjustment value, there is a possibility that the remainder is caused by an error of the synchronization algorithm, and the direct application may cause an error; if the remainder is discarded directly for use in determining the synchronization adjustment value, there is also a possibility that the remainder is a substantial deviation, and direct discarding would result in the first synchronization adjustment value being determined to be less accurate. Therefore, it is required to observe a certain number of times or a certain time, and if the remainder exists within a certain time or a certain number of times, that is, the absolute value of the first synchronization estimation value is always smaller than the weighting factor, that is, the first synchronization estimation value is not caused by an error; if the absolute value of the synchronization estimation value determined by the synchronization algorithm is not always smaller than the weighting factor within a certain time or a certain number of times, it indicates that the fact that the absolute value of the first synchronization estimation value is smaller than the weighting factor is caused by an error, which is a temporary reason.

303. The terminal device determines whether the value of the first counter incremented by the unit value is greater than a first threshold value. When the value of the first counter incremented by the unit value is greater than the first threshold, go to step 304; when the value of the first counter incremented by the unit value is less than or equal to the first threshold, step 305 is performed.

In this embodiment of the present application, the first threshold may be determined according to a signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel, where the signal-to-noise ratio may be determined by the terminal device by detecting a channel parameter. The larger the signal-to-noise ratio is, the smaller the first threshold value is; the smaller the signal-to-noise ratio, the larger the first threshold. The first counter is used for continuously monitoring whether the absolute values of the synchronous estimation values obtained through the synchronous algorithm in a period of time or a certain number of times are all smaller than the weighting factor, and if the absolute value of the first synchronous estimation value is temporarily smaller than the weighting factor due to the error of the synchronous algorithm, the value of the first counter will not exceed the first threshold. If the absolute values of the synchronization estimation values determined by the current synchronization algorithm in a longer time or a larger number of times are smaller than the weighting factor, the first counter exceeds the first threshold. The first counter can be used for better distinguishing different situations that the first synchronous estimation value is smaller than the weighting factor and carrying out distinguishing processing, and the method is beneficial to enabling the terminal equipment to be capable of synchronizing with the network equipment more accurately.

304. The terminal device determines the first synchronization adjustment value as an average of the values in the first set.

In a possible implementation manner, when the value obtained by incrementing the unit value by the first counter is greater than the first threshold, it indicates that the absolute values of the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm are all smaller than the weighting factor in a longer time, the first synchronization estimation value is not caused by an error, and may be caused by the fact that the actual time offset or frequency offset always fluctuates, so that the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm also always fluctuate, that is, the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm may fluctuate around a value within a certain time or a certain number of times when the weighting factor is assumed to be α. However, with the conventional method, a certain error may be caused by the fluctuation and the time-delay of the actual value, for example, the terminal device is performing time-offset synchronization, assuming that the current time-offset mainly fluctuates between (-4,4), if the current actual time-offset is-3 ms, it is determined that the first synchronization adjustment value has a certain time-delay according to the first synchronization estimation value and the weighting factor, and therefore the determined synchronization adjustment value may be 3, that is, the estimated time-offset of the terminal device is 3ms, and the terminal device is based on 3ms synchronization, there is a possibility that the terminal device cannot receive the data sent by the network device due to insufficient synchronization, and thus, such a manner is not favorable for the terminal device to perform synchronization. The actual time offset fluctuation usually fluctuates around a central value, and the first synchronization adjustment value is determined as the average value of the values in the first set, which is more favorable for the terminal device to accurately synchronize than the conventional method. Based on the method, the terminal equipment can be synchronized accurately.

305. The terminal device does not update the first synchronization adjustment value.

In a possible implementation manner, when the value obtained by incrementing the unit value by the first counter is smaller than or equal to the first threshold, which may be caused by a certain error of the synchronization algorithm, it is a temporary condition that the current first synchronization estimation value is smaller than the weighting factor, and therefore, the first synchronization adjustment value is not updated, that is, the first synchronization estimation value is not used for determining the first synchronization adjustment value, and the influence on the synchronization of the terminal device due to the error of the sub-synchronization algorithm can be avoided. Not updating the first synchronization adjustment value means determining that the first synchronization adjustment value is the last synchronization adjustment value determined, for example, determining the synchronization adjustment value once every 10ms, and the synchronization adjustment value determined in the previous 10ms is the second synchronization adjustment value 100, and if the first estimation value determined by the current synchronization algorithm meets the first preset requirement and the value of the first counter after increasing the unit value is less than or equal to the first threshold value, determining that the current first synchronization adjustment value is the second synchronization adjustment value 100.

In a possible implementation manner, if the first synchronization estimation value does not satisfy the first preset condition, the first counter is cleared by 0, and the first set is cleared. If the first set or the first counter is not cleared in time, the first synchronization adjustment value may be affected by the synchronization estimation values stored in the first set for a long time, for example, if the synchronization adjustment value is determined continuously within 10ms of the terminal device, if the absolute values of all the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm within the 1 st ms are smaller than the weighting factor, and therefore stored in the first set, the absolute values of the synchronization estimation values determined from the 2 nd ms to the 9 th ms are not smaller than the weighting factor, and the absolute values of all the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm within the 10 th ms are smaller than the weighting factor, and at this time, if the synchronization estimation values stored in the 1 st ms are not cleared by the first set, a certain influence may be caused on the synchronization adjustment value determined by the 10 th ms.

306. If the first synchronous estimated value meets a second preset condition, the terminal equipment increases the value of the second counter by a unit value and adds the first synchronous estimated value into a second set.

In the embodiment of the present application, the second preset condition is: the absolute value of the first synchronous estimated value is greater than a decision threshold, and the first synchronous estimated value and the second synchronous estimated value have the same positive and negative, wherein the decision threshold is greater than the weighting factor, the second synchronous estimated value is greater than the decision threshold, and the second synchronous estimated value is a synchronous estimated value close to the current synchronous time. The second synchronization estimation value refers to a synchronization estimation value determined according to a synchronization algorithm last time, for example, a synchronization estimation value is determined every 10ms, and if the currently determined synchronization estimation value is the first synchronization estimation value, the synchronization estimation value determined in the previous 10ms is the second synchronization estimation value.

In a continuous period of time, all the synchronization estimation values determined by the synchronization algorithm are positive values or negative values, and the absolute values of the synchronization estimation values are greater than the decision threshold, a certain error may exist through the weighting factor processing, especially when the current weighting factor is large, an accurate synchronization adjustment value may not be output for a long time, for example, assuming that a primary synchronization estimation value is determined in 10ms, and a primary synchronization adjustment value is also determined at the same time, the current weighting factor is 10, the actual time offset is always 100ms, and the synchronization estimation algorithm is error-free. The estimated synchronization value determined in the 1 st 10ms is 100, then the synchronization adjustment value determined in the 1 st 10ms is 100/10=10, the terminal device performs synchronization based on 10ms, and after performing actual synchronization, the terminal device determines that the difference between the synchronization adjustment value 10ms and the actual time offset 100ms is 90ms. Thus the 2 nd 10ms algorithmically determined synchronization estimate is 90, then according to conventional methods the 2 nd 10ms determined synchronization estimate 90 is divided by a weighting factor 10 equal to 9, added to the 1 st 10ms determined synchronization adjustment 10, and finally the 2 nd 10ms determined synchronization adjustment is 19. The difference between the synchronization adjustment value 10 determined in the 1 st 10ms and the synchronization adjustment value 19 determined in the 2 nd 10ms is larger than the actual time offset of 100ms, which shows that in the early stage of synchronization, the difference between the determined synchronization adjustment value and the actual time offset is larger, which results in long system locking time and affects the performance of the system in the period of time. Therefore, it is desirable to avoid determining the first synchronization adjustment value to be processed using the conventional method of determining based on the weighting factor and the first synchronization estimate value. If the absolute value of the first synchronization estimate is temporarily greater than the weighting factor due to an error in the synchronization algorithm, the value of the second counter will not exceed the second threshold. If the absolute values of the synchronization estimation values determined by the current synchronization algorithm in a longer time or a larger number of times are all larger than the weighting factor, the second counter exceeds the second threshold. The absolute value of the second synchronization estimation value greater than the decision threshold may be caused by an error of a synchronization algorithm, and may also actually exist, and the second counter can distinguish two different situations, and then processes the two different situations respectively, which is beneficial for the terminal device to be able to synchronize with the network device more accurately.

Optionally, the decision threshold is determined by the decoding performance requirement of the system.

307. The terminal device determines whether the value of the second counter incremented by the unit number is greater than a second threshold value. When the value of the second counter incremented by the unit value is greater than the second threshold, go to step 308; when the value of the second counter incremented by the unit value is less than or equal to the second threshold, step 309 is performed.

In this embodiment, the second threshold may be determined according to a signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel, where the signal-to-noise ratio may be obtained by detecting the channel by the terminal device. The larger the signal-to-noise ratio is, the smaller the second threshold value is; the smaller the signal-to-noise ratio, the larger the second threshold. The second threshold value can be adopted to well judge whether the second synchronous estimated value is larger than the weighting factor and is a temporary error reason or not, and the distinguishing processing is carried out, so that the terminal equipment can be more accurately synchronized with the network equipment.

308. The terminal device determines the first synchronization adjustment value as an average of the values in the second set.

In one possible implementation, when the value of the second counter incremented by the unit value is greater than the second threshold, it is determined that the current first synchronization estimation value is larger. If a conventional method is adopted, the difference between the synchronization adjustment value determined in the previous period and the actual time offset is large, so that the locking time of the system is long, and the performance of the system in the time is influenced. In order to avoid that the terminal equipment carries out synchronization estimation for a long time, the first synchronization adjustment value is directly determined to be the average value of the values in the second set, and the synchronization adjustment value is rapidly determined.

309. The terminal device does not update the first synchronization adjustment value.

In a possible implementation manner, when the value obtained by incrementing the unit value by the second counter is smaller than or equal to the second threshold, it is determined that there may be a certain error in the synchronization algorithm, which is a temporary condition, so that the current first synchronization adjustment value is not updated, and the influence on the synchronization of the terminal device due to the error in the sub-synchronization algorithm can be avoided. Not updating the first synchronization adjustment value refers to determining the first synchronization adjustment value as the last synchronization adjustment value determined, for example, determining the synchronization adjustment value once per second, the synchronization adjustment value determined in the previous second being 100, and if the current first estimation value satisfies the second preset requirement and the value of the second counter after increasing the unit value is less than or equal to the second threshold, determining the first synchronization adjustment value as the synchronization adjustment value determined in the previous second being 100.

In a possible implementation manner, if the first synchronization estimation value does not satisfy the second preset condition, the second counter is cleared by 0, and the second set is cleared. If the second set or the second counter is not cleared in time, the first synchronization adjustment value may be affected by a synchronization estimate stored in the second set a longer time ago. Based on the method, it can be avoided that the current first synchronization adjustment value is affected by the synchronization estimation values stored in the second set longer ago, thereby causing an error.

310. And if the first synchronous estimation value does not meet the first preset condition and the second preset condition, the terminal equipment processes the first synchronous estimation value according to the weighting factor to obtain the first synchronous adjustment value.

In this embodiment, the processing, by the terminal device, of the first synchronization estimation value according to the weighting factor to obtain the first synchronization adjustment value may be: the terminal equipment determines that the first synchronization adjustment value is equal to the first synchronization estimation value divided by the weighting factor and added with the synchronization adjustment value determined before the synchronization moment; this way of processing is the conventional method mentioned in the above. For example, assuming that the weighting factor is 5, before outputting the current first synchronization adjustment value, one synchronization estimation has been performed, the synchronization estimation value determined by the synchronization estimation algorithm is the second synchronization estimation value 100, the second synchronization adjustment value determined is 20, and if the current synchronization estimation algorithm determines the first synchronization estimation value is 100, the first synchronization adjustment value is output to be 40, that is, the first synchronization estimation value 100 is divided by the weighting factor 5, and then the second synchronization adjustment value 20 is added. This implementation manner is only one possibility proposed in the embodiment of the present application, and there may be other determination manners for the first synchronization adjustment value, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

311. The terminal device synchronizes based on the first synchronization adjustment value.

Illustratively, the terminal device may perform a timing synchronization adjustment based on the first synchronization adjustment value; to ensure that the receiver and the sender are synchronized in time. Alternatively, in addition to the timing synchronization adjustment, the terminal device may perform frequency synchronization estimation based on the first synchronization adjustment value.
