Definitions
- the present invention provides a base station apparatus that performs bidirectional wireless communication with a terminal station using a TDD (Time Division Duplex) method in which the same radio frequency is time-divided and the uplink and downlink are alternately communicated. More particularly, the present invention relates to a base station apparatus that performs communication using OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing).
- OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
- a TDD scheme is known as a duplex scheme in a mobile communication system using CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access).
- the TDD scheme is a transmission / reception same-band scheme, also called a ping-pong scheme, in which the same radio frequency is time-divided and the uplink and downlink are alternately communicated.
- FIG. 1 shows a configuration example of a communication frame in the TDD scheme.
- the communication frame shown in FIG. 1 is divided into a plurality of slots by time division.
- a downlink slot (downlink slot 1 to downlink slot n) is arranged in the first half of the frame
- an uplink slot (uplink slot 1 to uplink slot n) is arranged in the latter half of the frame.
- corresponding uplink bursts 1 to n are assigned to uplink slots 1 to n
- corresponding downlink bursts 1 to n are assigned to downlink slots 1 to slot n.
- An example is shown.
- an uplink slot and a downlink slot included in the communication frame are allocated to each terminal station.
- Can be The base station device switches between transmission processing and reception processing based on the timing signal shown in FIG. Terminal station The device performs transmission processing at the timing of the uplink slot allocated to itself, and performs reception processing at the timing of the downlink slot.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a structure of a downlink burst
- FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a structure of an uplink burst.
- a transmission path estimation preamble which is a known signal and is used for transmission path estimation, is arranged at the head of the downlink burst. Further, after the transmission path estimation preamble, data destined for the terminal station (downlink data # 1 and downlink data # 2) is arranged.
- a guard time is provided at the beginning of an uplink burst to prevent collision with an adjacent burst.
- synchronization detection and AGC automatic gain control
- a preamble for AGC is installed.
- a transmission channel estimation preamble which is a known signal and is used for transmission channel estimation, is arranged after the synchronization / AGC preamble. Further, after the transmission channel estimation preamble, data destined for the base station (uplink data # 3 and uplink data # 4) are arranged.
- the downstream bursts are arranged together with the downstream bursts to prevent the reception timing of the upstream burst from deviating from a predetermined reception timing, thereby preventing collision with the downstream burst. .
- the ratio of guard frames in communication frames is reduced to improve transmission efficiency.
- This diversity processing is a technique for preventing a drop in the power of a received signal on the receiver side.
- the base station and the terminal station are provided with an IFFT circuit, and perform OFDM communication on both the uplink and the downlink.
- the base station receives an uplink burst from a plurality of antenna elements and detects a reception level for each of the antenna elements. The detection of the reception level is performed for each subcarrier of the reception signal. The base station allocates the subcarriers constituting the downlink burst to the antenna element having the highest reception level for the subcarriers based on the detection result of the reception level, and transmits the subcarriers.
- Such transmission diversity presupposes that the propagation path characteristics of the uplink and the downlink are substantially the same in the TDD scheme. Based on this premise, transmission diversity attempts to maximize downlink reception power at terminal stations by transmitting downlink signals from the branch with the highest uplink reception power.
- the uplink slot and the downlink slot are separated (that is, a long time is required from the reception of the uplink slot to the transmission of the downlink slot). Since they are arranged (with an interval), the line state at the time of uplink slot reception and the line state at the time of downlink slot transmission greatly differ. Therefore, the assumption that the propagation path characteristics of the uplink and the downlink are substantially the same is broken, and the ability to improve the reception quality due to diversity is degraded.
- An object of the present invention is to achieve reception quality by transmit diversity without reducing transmission efficiency. It is an object of the present invention to provide a base station apparatus and a wireless communication method that can enhance the effect of improving wireless communication.

Further, the selection unit 71 outputs a signal not selected as a signal with a high priority to the transmission buffer unit 73.
- the selecting section 74 reads out the high-priority signal from the transmission buffer section 72 with reference to the channel information, and allocates the read signal to the slot arranged in the second area of the communication frame shown in FIG.
- the band allocating unit 13 allocates a slot arranged in a section other than the second area to a signal other than a signal with a high priority.
- Band allocating section 13 controls transmission buffer section 73 in accordance with the slot allocation, and outputs the signal held in transmission buffer section 73 to transmission diversity section 14 via selection section 74.
- a signal with high priority that is, a signal requiring a good error rate
- the diversity has a great effect of improving the communication quality, so that the error rate characteristics of high priority signals can be improved.
- FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of a slot arrangement of a communication frame used in the sixth embodiment of the present invention.
- the communication frame used in the present embodiment is a slot next to the second area (that is, the first slot of the downlink slot that is collectively allocated to a section other than the second area). ) Is the downlink slot X, and the last slot of the communication frame (that is, the last slot of the uplink slot that is collectively assigned to a section other than the second area) is the uplink slot X.
- An uplink burst X is allocated to the uplink slot arranged in this way, and a downlink burst X is allocated to the downlink slot X.
- the uplink slot X corresponds to the target uplink slot in the scope of the claims, and the downlink slot X is It corresponds to the target downstream slot in the range.
- the bursts allocated to the downlink slot X and the uplink slot X are selected by the band allocating unit 13 based on the channel quality information such as the RSI and CRC detection results. For example, based on the channel quality information, the bandwidth allocating unit 13 selects, for example, a burst having the worst channel condition among bursts that cannot be allocated to the second area.
- the interval between the uplink slot X and the downlink slot X in the next frame corresponds to the uplink slot allocated to a section other than the second area and the uplink slot in the next frame.
- the interval from the downstream slot (for example, the interval between the upstream slot k + 1 and the downstream slot k + 1 in the next frame) is shorter. Therefore, by estimating the line state using the uplink slot X in the previous frame and performing transmission diversity based on the estimation result, the slot arranged in the first area (slot X in this case) Also, the effect of improving the reception quality due to diversity can be improved.
- FIG. 12 is a block diagram showing a configuration of base station 90 according to Embodiment 7 of the present invention.
- the same components as those in FIG. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.
- the communication frame used in the present embodiment is the same as that shown in FIG.
- gain control section 91 calculates transmission power based on the detection result of the reception level of the uplink slot in level detection section 21 and calculates the downlink burst output from transmission buffer section 11 Amplified to the transmitted power. Specifically, the gain control section 91 determines the reception level of the uplink slot detected by the level detection section 21 (hereinafter, referred to as “detection level”) and a predetermined level. The target reception level (hereinafter referred to as “target level”) is compared. If the detection level is higher than the target level, lower the transmission power. Conversely, if the detected level is smaller than the target level, control is performed to increase the transmission power. In gain control section 91, transmission power control is performed for each subcarrier. That is, the target level is set for each subcarrier, and the transmission power control for each subcarrier is performed by comparing the target level with the detection level detected for each subcarrier.
- FIG. 13 is a diagram showing the transmission power for each subcarrier of the downlink burst
- FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the reception power at the terminal of the downlink burst shown in FIG.
- the downlink burst shown in FIG. 13 is a downlink burst amplified in the gain controller 91 shown in FIG.
- the subcarriers in the well-turned state for example, the third subcarrier and the eighth subcarrier from the left in the drawing
- Subcarriers with poor line conditions for example, the first subcarrier or the fifth subcarrier from the left in the figure
- each subcarrier is attenuated in the propagation path, and received with the power of each subcarrier being substantially constant.
- the reception power of the subcarrier can be kept substantially constant. 0
- the reason why the error rate of the FDM signal deteriorates is that the subcarrier whose reception level has fallen becomes dominant.However, by keeping the subcarrier reception power almost constant, the drop in the reception level Can be prevented. As a result, the error rate characteristics can be improved. (Embodiment 8)
- FIG. 15 is a block diagram showing a configuration of base station 120 according to Embodiment 8 of the present invention.
- the same components as those in FIG. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted.
- the communication frame used in the present embodiment is the same as that shown in FIG. OFDM—CDMA is a multicarrier version of CDMA communication, and is characterized by frequency division multiplexing of chips to which subcarriers are assigned.
- spreading section 122 assigns a spreading chip to each of subcarriers constituting the transmission signal by performing spreading processing on the transmission signal output from transmission buffer section 11.
- the transmission signal in which the chip is allocated to each subcarrier is diversity-combined in the transmission diversity section 14, and is transmitted via the transmission section 15 or the transmission section 16 to the corresponding antenna element 17 or 1. It is transmitted wirelessly from 8.
- the diversity effect of the slots arranged in the second area is improved, so that the collapse of orthogonality between spreading codes can be reduced. For this reason, the number of spreading chips that can be frequency-division multiplexed increases, so that the transmission efficiency can be improved.
- the transmission efficiency is improved by providing the second region having a short open loop period in the communication frame and diversity-combining the transmission signals assigned to the slots in the second region. It is possible to improve the diversity effect without substantially reducing the divergence.
- the present specification is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-2012 filed on Apr. 19, 2001. This content is included here.
- Industrial applicability The present invention provides a base station apparatus that performs bidirectional wireless communication with a terminal station using a TDD (Time Division Duplex) method in which the same radio frequency is time-divided and the uplink and downlink are alternately communicated. It is particularly suitable for use in a base station apparatus that performs communication using OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing).
