A METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OBTAINING PRECODING MATRIX
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to wireless communication, especially to
method and device for obtaining precoding matrix.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In closed-loop Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system, receiver
needs to feed channel information back to transmitter for the transmitting data signal
during communication.
Considering a MIMO system with Nt transmitting antennas and Nr receiving
antennas, Mt denotes the number of space multiplex data flows to be sent, vector x of
Mtxl denotes the signal carried by the data flows, the precoding matrix W is a NtxMt
dimensional matrix, which transforms vector x into Ntxl dimensional vector z :
z=Wx
Vector z is actual signal transmitted by transmitting antenna. The signal received by
receiving antenna is denoted as:
r=HWx+n
Wherein, H denotes channel matrix, n denotes Gaussian white noise vector.
If feedback overhead is not considered, the optimal choice of W is right
singular vector of Matrix H. However, the cost of feedback of these singular vectors is
great. Therefore, a solution of closed-loop MIMO precoding with limited feedback is
proposed. A group of precoding matrixes or vectors are structured for each
transmitting antenna dimension, and this group of precoding matrixes or vectors
(called as matrix below) are called as "codebook". Both base station and mobile
station are enabled to know this codebook, which is denoted as P = {P 1, P }, in
which each matrix is called as a "code word". If L = 2 denotes the size of
codebook, q is the required bit number for indexing the codebook. Take an 4X2
MIMO system as an example, for a codebook with size L=64, only 6 bits information
is needed to feed back for the transmitter to select precoding matrix. After the
codebook of a MIMO system is determined, the receiver detects the channel and
selects the optimal code word (precoding matrix) for the present moment, and then the
index of the code word is fed back to the transmitter. The MIMO system may save a
plenty of feedback overhead by means of such limited codebook index feedback.
The MIMO system may also use a limited feedback solution of feeding
back quantized channel matrix codebook index, that is: quantized channel matrix
codebook is structured in advance and stored at the transmitter and receiver; the
receiver detects the channel and selects the optimal code word for the present moment
from the quantized channel matrix codebook and feeds back the index of the code
word; the transmitter determines present channel transmission matrix according to the
code word corresponding to the index, and then calculates the optimal precoding
matrix for data transmission according to present channel transmission matrix.
In 3GPP RANI discussion, it has been agreed about the feedback of channel
information in LTE-A (Long Term Evolution system-Advanced)system that: two code
words may be respectively selected from two separate codebooks and reported to the
base station, when the mobile terminal feeds the precoding matrix back to the base
station. In the two code words, one is used for representing wideband and/or
long-term channel properties; the other is used for representing frequency-selective
(such as a sub-band) and/or short-term channel properties. The base station obtains the
precoding matrix according to the product of the two code words. The user terminal
may determine the code word for representing wideband and/or long-term channel
properties according to capacity maximization principle or the principle of minimum
distance of eigenvector of channel correlation matrix, and then determine the code
word for representing frequency selective (such as a sub-band) and/or short-term
channel properties according to real-time channel condition.
In practice, cross-polarized linear array (CLA) is a typical manner of antenna
configuration. Antenna polarization represents the direction of electric field strength
formed during antenna radiation. The electrical wave is called as vertically polarized
wave if the direction of electric field strength is perpendicular to ground; the electrical
wave is called as horizontal polarized wave if the direction of electric field strength is
parallel to ground. Cross-polarized antenna is one kind of dual-polarized antenna.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The inventor of the present invention is aware that all of present codebooks
do not consider polarization performance of cross-polarized linear array antenna, that
is, due to relative phase shifts and amplitude differences among different polarized
antennas, big error may possibly exist in feedback of channel information, so as to
influence the system performance. For cross-polarized linear array antenna, when the
mobile terminal feeds precoding matrix back to the base station, if polarization
performance of cross-polarized linear array antenna is considered in the transmitting
of code word, the precoding matrix determined by the base station may reflect
downlink channel information more accurately so as to improve system performance
effectively.
In order to better address the aforesaid technical problem, a method, in a
network apparatus, of obtaining precoding matrix is provided according to one
embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention. The network apparatus
comprises a plurality of groups of cross-polarized linear array antennas. The method
comprises following steps:
- obtaining first channel indicating information indicating a first code word;
- obtaining second channel indicating information indicating a second code
word; and
- determining the precoding matrix, according to the first channel indicating
information and the second channel indicating information,
wherein the first code word and/or the second code word comprises phase
shifts and amplitude differences among the plurality of groups of cross-polarized
linear array antennas.
Since the first code word and the second code word for determining the
precoding matrix by the network apparatus comprise phase shifts and amplitude
differences among cross-polarized linear array antennas, the phase shifts and
amplitude differences among cross-polarized linear array antennas are considered
when the network apparatus sends downlink data according to the precoding matrix,
so as to be able to improve the receiving quality of the sent data to improve the system
performance effectively.
A method, in a user terminal equipment, of providing a network apparatus
with a precoding matrix is provided according to one embodiment of the second
aspect of the present invention. The precoding matrix is obtained according to a first
code word and a second code word, the network apparatus comprises a plurality of
groups of cross-polarized linear array antennas, the method comprises following
steps:
- sending first channel indicating information indicating a first code word;
- sending second channel indicating information indicating a second code
word;
wherein the first code word and/or the second code word comprises phase
shifts and/or amplitude differences among the plurality of groups of cross-polarized
linear array antennas.
Since the first code word and the second code word sent by the user terminal
equipment comprise phase shifts and amplitude differences among cross-polarized
linear array antennas, the phase shifts and amplitude differences among
cross-polarized linear array antennas are considered when the network apparatus
determines downlink data according to the first code word and the second code word.
Therefore, the phase shifts and amplitude differences among cross-polarized linear
array antennas are considered when the network apparatus sends downlink data
according to the precoding matrix, so as to be able to improve the receiving quality of
the sent data, thereby improving the system performance effectively.
