Description

Beschreibungdescription
Mobilfunkfeststation mit veränderbarer AntennencharakteristikMobile base station with changeable antenna characteristics
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Feststation gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a fixed station according to the preamble of claim 1.
Die Reichweite in einem Mobilfunksystem, z.B. einem schnurlo¬ sen Telefon, das aus einer Feststation und einer oder mehre- ren Mobilstationen besteht, wird im wesentlichen durch seine Sendeleistung und seine Empfängerempfindlichkeit bestimmt. Dabei wird die Sendeleistung in der Regel in alle Richtungen gleichmäßig, d.h. zumindest angenähert punktsymmetrisch abge¬ strahlt, um zum einen universell in jeder Umgebung einsetzbar zu sein und zum anderen in jeder Richtung die gleiche Reich¬ weite zu erzielen. Wird jedoch ein einzelner Zeitpunkt be¬ trachtet, so wird aus der Sicht der Feststation, also im Bei¬ spiel der Basisstation eines schnurlosen Telefons, nur ein Bruchteil der Sendeenergie in Richtung der sich in diesem Augenblick in Betrieb befindenden Mobilstation, also im Bei¬ spiel dem Mobilteil des schnurlosen Telefons, abgestrahlt. Der weitaus größte Teil der Sendeenergie wird dagegen nicht genutzt und kann auf fremde Geräte sogar störend wirken. Die Reichweite der Strahlung ist durch die Sendeleistung, die Streckendämpfung und die Empfangsleistung begrenzt. DieThe range in a mobile radio system, e.g. A cordless telephone, which consists of a base station and one or more mobile stations, is essentially determined by its transmission power and its receiver sensitivity. The transmission power is usually even in all directions, i.e. radiated at least approximately point symmetrically, on the one hand to be universally applicable in any environment and on the other hand to achieve the same range in every direction. However, if a single point in time is considered, from the point of view of the base station, that is to say in the example of the base station of a cordless telephone, only a fraction of the transmission energy is directed in the direction of the mobile station that is currently in operation, that is to say in the example the handset of the cordless telephone. The vast majority of transmission energy, on the other hand, is not used and can even interfere with third-party devices. The range of the radiation is limited by the transmission power, the path loss and the reception power. The
Streckendämpfung ist dabei ein feststehender Faktor und kann nicht reduziert werden. Die Sendeleistung läßt sich nicht beliebig erhöhen. Prinzipiell kann die Empfangsleistung und damit die Reichweite durch eine gerichtete Übertragung, d.h. also durch die Verwendung einer bündelnden Richtantenne, wel¬ che die zur Verfügung stehende Energie konzentriert in eine bestimmte Richtung abstrahlt, erhöht werden. Die Verwendung von Richtantennen in Funksystemen zu diesem Zweck ist allge¬ mein bekannt.Track loss is a fixed factor and cannot be reduced. The transmission power cannot be increased arbitrarily. In principle, the reception power and thus the range can be achieved by a directional transmission, i.e. This means that the use of a directional antenna, which radiates the available energy in a concentrated direction, increases the use. The use of directional antennas in radio systems for this purpose is generally known.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, durch Ausgestaltung der Fest¬ station eine vorteilhafte Möglichkeit zur Verbesserung des Übertragungsverhaltens zwischen der Festεtation und den Mo¬ bilstationen eines Mobilfunksystems, insbesondere eines Schnurlostelefonε, zu schaffen.The object of the invention is, by designing the fixed station, to advantageously improve the To create transmission behavior between the fixed station and the mobile stations of a mobile radio system, in particular a cordless telephone.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Feststation gemäß dem Oberbe¬ griff des Patentanspruchs 1 durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil dieses Patentanspruchs angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved in a fixed station according to the preamble of claim 1 by the features specified in the characterizing part of this claim.
Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen und Ausgestaltungen der im Pa- tentanspruch l angegebenen Feststation sind in den Ansprüchen 2 bis 6 angegeben.Appropriate developments and refinements of the base station specified in claim 1 are specified in claims 2 to 6.
Im folgenden wird anhand eines in einer Figur dargestellten Blockschaltbilds eine Feststation nach der Erfindung erläu- tert.A base station according to the invention is explained below with reference to a block diagram shown in a figure.
Bei dieser Feststation eines Mobilfunksystemε kann es sich beispielsweise um die Basisstation eines nach dem DECT-Stan- dard arbeitenden schnurlosen Telefons handeln.This base station of a mobile radio system can be, for example, the base station of a cordless telephone working according to the DECT standard.
Die dargestellte Feststation weist eine Antenneneinrichtung l auf, die über einen Antennenumschalter 2 entweder an einen Sender 3 oder an einen Empfänger 4 angeschlossen ist. Die Antenneneinrichtung 1 ist als mehrere einzelne Strahler auf- weisende Gruppenantenne (Array) ausgebildet, deren Strah¬ lungscharakteristik zu einer Richtstrahlcharakteristik ge¬ formt werden kann. Je nach Zu- und Abschaltung einzelner Strahler dieser Gruppenantenne und/oder je nach Einschaltung bestimmter Phasenverhältnisse zwischen diesen einzelnen Strahlern läßt sich eine geeignete Richtstrahlcharakteristik erstellen, wobei diese dann in unterschiedlichen Richtungen ausgerichtet sein kann.The base station shown has an antenna device 1, which is connected via an antenna switch 2 either to a transmitter 3 or to a receiver 4. The antenna device 1 is designed as a group antenna (array) having a plurality of individual radiators, the radiation characteristics of which can be shaped into a directional beam characteristic. Depending on the connection and disconnection of individual radiators of this group antenna and / or depending on the activation of certain phase relationships between these individual radiators, a suitable directional beam characteristic can be created, which can then be oriented in different directions.
Die in der Figur dargestellte Feststation enthält zur Ein- Stellung der Strahlungscharakteristik der Antenneneinrichtung l ein Steuerwerk 5 . Die die Form eines eines gebündelten Richtstrahls aufweisende Strahlungscharakteristik dieser An- tenneneinrichtung 1 wird stets dem augenblicklichen Standort derjenigen Mobilstation angepaßt, zu der hin unter Anschal- tung des Senders 3 zum betreffenden Zeitpunkt gesendet oder von der her unter Anschaltung des Empfängers 4 zum betreffen- den Zeitpunkt empfangen wird. Die Ansteuerdaten für die Ein¬ stellung der jeweiligen Strahlungscharakteristik der Antenneneinrichtung 1 werden anhand eines Algorithmus aus der im Steuerwerk 5 in einer Meßeinrichtung 6 gemessenen Empfangsfeidstärke und/oder direkt aus den empfangenen digi- talen Daten mit Hilfe einer Einrichtung 7, in welcherThe fixed station shown in the figure contains a control unit 5 for setting the radiation characteristics of the antenna device 1. The radiation characteristic of this application, which has the shape of a bundled directional beam, The antenna device 1 is always adapted to the current location of that mobile station to which the transmitter 3 is switched on at the relevant time or from which the receiver 4 is received at the relevant time when the receiver 4 is switched on. The control data for the setting of the respective radiation characteristics of the antenna device 1 are based on an algorithm from the reception field strength measured in the control unit 5 in a measuring device 6 and / or directly from the received digital data with the aid of a device 7, in which
Bit/Burstfehler erkannt werden, abgleitet. Die tatsächliche rechnerische Auswertung zur Festlegung der Ansteuerdaten er¬ folgt in einem den Algorithmus ausführenden zentralen Teil 8 des Steuerwerks 5. Im Steuerwerk 5 sind in einer Speichervor- richtung 9 die zugehörigen Strahlungscharakteristiken für 1 bis n Mobilstationen in Form der Ansteuerdaten für die Anten¬ neneinrichtung l zwischengespeichert.Bit / burst errors are detected, derived. The actual computational evaluation for determining the control data takes place in a central part 8 of the control unit 5 that executes the algorithm. In the control unit 5, the associated radiation characteristics for 1 to n mobile stations in the form of the control data for the antenna device are in a memory device 9 l cached.
In der Speichervorrichtung 9 des Steuerwerks 1 können in vor- teilhafter Weise auch zwei Strahlungscharakteristiken abge¬ speichert werden, deren Differenz nur einer geringfügigen Änderung der Charakteristik entspricht. Hiermit wird er¬ reicht, daß Empfangsunterbrechungen durch Fading-Löcher bei einer sich nicht bewegenden Mobilstation verhindert werden. In the memory device 9 of the control unit 1, two radiation characteristics can be advantageously stored, the difference of which corresponds to only a slight change in the characteristic. This ensures that interruptions in reception due to fading holes in a non-moving mobile station are prevented.
