Definitions
- the present invention relates to digital wireless communications systems in which delays of individual multipath components of a time-varying fading channel must be provided, such as, for example, systems using RAKE receivers in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems.
- CDMA Code Division Multiple Access
- the present invention is particularly suitable for receivers that operate in fading environments and have limited processing resources (e.g., receivers in Wideband (WCDMA) terminals), but is not limited to such receivers.
- WCDMA Wideband
- a physical channel between a transmitter and a receiver is formed by a radio link
- a transmit antenna is not narrowly focused towards the receiver and, in addition to a possible direct path, many other propagation paths often exist between the receiver and the transmitter.
- the other propagation paths are typically caused by reflections from objects in the surroundings. Rays with similar propagation distances combine at the receiver depending on an instantaneous phase relationship and form a distinct multipath component. An effect of the combining depends on the instantaneous relationship of the carrier wavelength and distance differences and, in the case of destructive interference, often leads to a significant path-gain magnitude decrease (i.e., fading).
- Performance of the receiver may be improved by utilizing signal energy carried by many multipath components.
- the performance improvement is achieved using a RAKE receiver in which each multipath component is assigned a despreader whose reference copy of a spreading code is delayed equally to a path delay of a corresponding multipath component.
- Outputs of the despreaders i.e., RAKE fingers
- the RAKE receiver requires knowledge of the multipath delays and the values of the channel impulse response for all paths.
- the signal energy froni as many physical paths as possible should be collected, hi addition, tracking as many different physical paths as possible (i.e., higher utilized diversity) significantly increases the robustness of reception, since the probability of a simultaneous deep fade of all tracked paths is reduced. Simultaneous deep fade is a phenomenon that can lead to significant signal block-error-rate (BLER) degradation.
- CDMA requires soft handoff (SHO) at cell boundaries. During SHO, a receiver receives signals from multiple cells simultaneously until the SHO is completed. The RAKE receiver coherently combines the received signals to increase a received-signal energy and to improve a post-combining SNR. The signal path delays from all the cells are intended to be estimated. Following the signal-path-delay estimation, as many signal paths as possible are used for demodulation.
- a signal-path-selection method in a RAKE receiver includes producing C channel estimates from M received signal paths, determining a plurality of best signal paths using the C produced channel estimates, choosing A signal paths of the plurality of best signal paths in accordance with at least one pre-determined criterion, and combining the A signal paths.
- C is a measure of channel-estimation capacity of the RAKE receiver.
- M is greater than C.
- a RAKE receiver includes a channel estimator for producing C channel estimates from M received signal paths and a RAKE combiner for choosing A signal paths of M determined best signal paths and combining the A signal paths.
- C is a measure of channel- estimation capacity of the RAKE receiver.
- M is greater than C.
- FIGURE 1 is a block diagram of a RAKE receiver
- FIGURE 2 is a flow diagram illustrating a path-selection process in accordance with principles of the present invention.
- FIGURE 3 is a functional block diagram illustrating the process of FIGURE 2.
- Various embodiments of the invention use a path-selection process that serves to reduce the number of delay values for which channel estimation must be performed in parallel and improve energy-capture robustness under rich-multipath fading such as, for example, in SHO.
- FIGURE 1 is a block diagram of a RAKE receiver 100.
- the RABCE receiver 100 includes a delay estimator block 102, a channel estimator block 104, a RAKE despreader/combiner block 106, and a control unit 108. Received data are fed to the delay estimator block 102.
- the delay estimator block 102 evaluates an impulse response of a channel over a range of possible delays of the channel. A resulting delay profile, which may be a complex delay profile or a power delay profile, may then be subjected to peak detection and detected peak locations reported to the RAKE despreader/combiner block 106 as delay estimates for the multi-path components.
- the delay estimates are also used by the channel estimator block 104 to estimate corresponding complex channel coefficients by despreading a pilot sequence and possibly filtering results over time to reduce the effects of noise and interference.
- Channel parameters are estimated in collaboration between the delay estimator block 102, which determines temporal alignment of a despreader portion of the RAKE despreader/combiner block 106, and the channel estimator block 104, which estimates the complex coefficients to be used by a combiner portion of the RAKE despreader/combiner block 106.
- FIGURE 1 Although a single delay estimator block 102, a single despreader/combiner block 106, and a single channel estimator block 104 are illustrated in FIGURE 1, it will be understood by one having skill in the art that each such block shown in FIGURE 1 may represent a plurality of like components without departing from principles of the invention.
- each cell is assumed to have a so-called virtual delay estimator associated therewith.
- a single delay estimator e.g., the delay estimator block 102
- Each virtual delay estimator reports up to L paths.
- the RAKE receiver 100 performs delay estimation over all cells every T DE slots and receives up to NL delay estimates dj k . ,- where A: is a slot number at which the update -A-
- slots is employed as a measure of time in, for example, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA); however, other time units may be employed without departing from principles of the invention.
- WCDMA Wideband Code Division Multiple Access
- the RAKE receiver 100 also receives associated power estimates P®.
- the delay information contains the delay value and a scrambling code for a particular cell, and the power estimates convey an average signal power for the path over some observation interval.
- An observation period is typically longer than a channel fading cycle.
- the M strongest paths are chosen out of a pool of up to N-L paths.
- M typically equals C, where C is the number of available despreaders and channel estimators.
- Respective delays d ⁇ of the M strongest paths are passed to an active finger selection (AFS) stage of the channel estimator 104 (not explicitly shown), where channel estimates h ⁇ for all M paths are computed every slot.
- the despreaders and channel estimators are common-pilot- channel (CPICH) despreaders and channel estimators; however, pilot symbols on the dedicated channels could also be used for these estimation tasks.
- CPICH common-pilot- channel
- the A strongest paths of the M paths (e.g., A paths satisfying some thresholding condition) are chosen for data combining.
- the AFS is typically updated every slot.
- N- N p is the number of significant paths per cell (i.e., the number of paths that contain, for example, at least 80% of the total received power from the cell), is not very large compared to M (i.e., the number of paths on which channel estimation may be performed).
- FIGURE 2 is a flow diagram illustrating a path-selection process 200 in accordance with principles of the invention.
- the path-selection process 200 serves to reduce the likelihood of encountering strong non-monitored paths in a rich multipath environment without requiring unnecessary hardware expansion.
- the virtual delay estimators provide a list of paths , along with an average power for each path /)* .
- the path-selection process 200 then proceeds as described below at at least one path-selection update instance.
- the path-selection process 200 begins at step 202.
- the number of paths to be monitored Mis determined from a list of as many as NL total available paths, considering, for example, a number of reported paths and a channel variation speed.
- the M best paths are chosen from the list of as many as NL paths.
- R may be used specifically as the exact length of a complete channel estimation update cycle when R is an integer; when R is not an integer, R represents an approximation to characterize an average channel-estimation delay.
- step 208 a slot-number counter S is set to 0.
- step 210 a delay subset number S mod R is determined, which is a remainder operation used to determine which of R possible path subsets should be monitored in the current slot.
- Steps 212-218 are performed so that all M paths are monitored every R slots.
- C new channel estimates are produced by C available channel estimators and RAKE despreaders/combiners.
- the C new channel estimates produced at step 212 are merged with any existing channel-estimate results to update a list of Mbest paths.
- automatic finger selection is performed and a list of A paths is obtained, where A is the number of paths used for data combining.
- data from the A paths obtained at step 216 are combined using A RAKE fingers.
- the slot- number counter S is incremented. From step 220, execution returns to step 210.
- channel estimation and active finger selection updating may be continuously performed as new channel estimations become available via a resource-sharing scheme, such as, for example, round-robin activation, rather than once per every R slots.
- steps 202-208 may be performed less frequently than steps 210-218. In many circumstances, it would suffice to perform steps 202-208 at a rate comparable to the channel coherence time.
- R value may be defined according to many different criteria.
- One possible criterion would be to limit the average remaining uncaptured signal energy. For example, let there be a total of /paths available, and let a path list be sorted in descending order according to the average power P* . M should be chosen so that
- channel estimates for momentarily-strongest paths that contribute most to the combined SIR could be updated more frequently.
- Z strongest paths could be updated every slot using dedicated despreaders.
- the remaining M- Z paths could use the remaining C - Z despreaders in accordance with a resource-sharing scheme (e.g., round-robin, weighted round-robin, deficit round-robin, weighted fair queueing, stochastic fairness queueing).
- FIGURE 3 is a functional block diagram at 300 illustrating the process of FIGURE
- the diagram 300 illustrates production of C channel estimates from M paths to be monitored by a channel estimator block 312, which block corresponds to step 212 of FIGURE 2 and may be performed by, for example, the channel estimator block 104 of FIGURE 1.
- the same channel estimator hardware may be used repeatedly with different inputs at different slots as illustrated by the multiple occurrences of the same channel estimator block 312 in FIGURE 3, subsequent instances of the channel estimator block 312 being illustrated with dashed lines.
- Block 314 which corresponds to step 214 of FIGURE 2, performs a hold and merge function in order to update the list of M best paths.
- the output of hold and merge block 314 is input to an AFS block 316, which corresponds to step 216 of FIGURE 2.
- the AFS block 316 performs active finger selection in order to obtain a list of A paths, where A is the number of paths selected by the AFS block 316 for data combining.
- Various embodiments of the invention provide a flexible solution that may be used to allow a trade-off between the number of paths considered for combining and the channel-estimation update rate without a need for hardware expansion, hi rich multipath conditions, the degradation due to slightly delaying the channel estimate is typically negligible compared to the benefit of avoiding a deep fade and a severe SIR dip. Moreover, no significant computational overhead is imposed, although some extra bookkeeping in shuffling the channel estimates may be needed.
- Various embodiments of the present invention may be implemented in, for example, hardware, software (e.g., carried out by a processor that executes computer- readable instructions), or a combination thereof.
- the computer-readable instructions may be program code loaded in a memory such as, for example, Random Access Memory (RAM), or from a storage medium such as, for example, Read Only Memory (ROM).
- RAM Random Access Memory
- ROM Read Only Memory
- a processor may be operative to execute software adapted to perform a series of steps in accordance with principles of the present invention.
- the software may be adapted to reside upon a computer-readable medium such as, for example, a magnetic disc within a disc drive unit.
- the computer-readable medium may also include a flash memory card, EEROM based memory, bubble memory storage, ROM storage, etc.
- the software adapted to perform steps according to principles of the present invention may also reside, in whole or in part, in static or dynamic main memories or in firmware within a processor (e.g., within microcontroller, micro
