For the core content of this method is described, work period of only having drawn among the figure, at the workflow of a time slot, detailed process that its control wave beam switches is as follows:
1. whether judge this time slot in talking state,,, begin statistical work from the following cycle and carry out again then with the zero clearing of frame statistical counter if not in talking state; If in talking state, then whether the judgment frame counters count time is statistic unit period, i.e. a J=N; If discontented statistic unit period, then finish the work of this cycle;
2. the thresholding THR_erfram that sets frame error rate respectively is 50%, received signal intensity indication RSSI thresholding THR_rssi is 35dB μ V, in the statistic unit period of regulation, i.e. whether J=N then surpasses according to as shown in Figure 8 following steps comparison frame error rate and presets thresholding:
At first, statistics frame counter O reset, the zero clearing of mistake frame counter;
Secondly, judge that if be the mistake frame, then frame counter adds one by mistake by each work period quality to received signal;
Then, after the statistic unit period finishes, obtain the total mistake frame number ErrFrame in the statistical time range, again with the frame number N of total mistake frame number divided by the statistic unit period, obtain frame error rate, do not preset thresholding THR_erfram if frame error rate surpasses, do not illustrate that signal quality is good, the wave beam in next cycle number can be constant; Preset thresholding THR_erfram if frame error rate surpasses, illustrate that signal quality is bad, whether the signal receiving strength that at this moment reconvicts indication RSSI is lower than presets thresholding THR_rssi;
3. whether the mean value of statistics RSSI is less than presetting thresholding THR_rssi, surpass the situation that presets thresholding THR_erfram for frame error rate, then by the Base-Band Processing control unit by following steps shown in Figure 7, each cycle to the RSSI of each time slot access of sampling:
At first, statistics frame counter O reset, received signal intensity indication accumulator RSS_IACC zero clearing;
Secondly, be that J=N is in the period, to the sampled value RSSI of each frame to a statistic unit period 1RSSI 2... RSSI NSummation;
Then, the RSSI=RSSI_ACC/N that averages;
4. calculate the control wave beam number of next work period, preset thresholding, then judge the mobile subscriber not on the wave beam number, need to reappear the control wave beam number of estimating the next work period, otherwise wave beam is number constant if signal receiving strength indication RSSI is lower than;
5. the wave beam control number of estimating is sent to wave beam control transformation unit, the work period finishes.
Fig. 9 has described example of estimation control wave beam related among Fig. 6 number.Because pre-design number of beams is few, have only 5 in this example, then control wave beam and adopted simple polling mode.Scan with these 5 wave beams respectively during work, and signal strength and signal quality are judged, finally find a suitable mobile subscriber's optimum beam orientation.Specifically: when the user shifts out current beam coverage, need estimate new control wave beam number again, its method is as follows:
At first, judge earlier whether current control wave beam BFC_num equals maximum control wave beam wave beam BFC_max, when 5 wave beams of employing, maximum wave beam number is 4;
If current control wave beam BFC_num is not equal to maximum control wave beam wave beam BFC_max, then new control wave beam number equals current control wave beam and number adds 1, that is: BFC_num+1;
If current control wave beam BFC_num equals maximum control wave beam wave beam BFC_max, then new control wave beam number is changed to minimum value BFC_min, be generally 0;
So, system can carry out poll scanning in all beam areas.
Figure 10 has described another example of related control wave beam number estimation among Fig. 6 in more detail, and this system uses the accurate estimation technique that the mobile subscriber is accurately estimated, is applicable to the orientation is required more accurate system.It accurately estimates to be estimated to form by the poll in two stages, and process is as follows:
(1) controls the pre-estimation of wave beam number, this step has been used among Fig. 3 b 4 wave beams shown in 300b, 310b, 320b, the 330b number, azimuth of mobile user is carried out pre-estimation, it estimates that flow process is identical with the flow process that Fig. 9 describes, still adopt the method for poll, the different different beams number of only being to use.
(2) on the basis of pre-estimation, begin to control the accurate estimation 1002b of wave beam,, then select for use three wave beams of 311b, 312b, 313b shown in Fig. 3 b to carry out the orientation and accurately estimate if the control wave beam position of pre-estimation is 310b; If the control wave beam position 320b of pre-estimation then selects for use three wave beams of 321b, 322b, 323b shown in Fig. 3 b to carry out the orientation and accurately estimates; The rest may be inferred, if the control wave beam position 330b of pre-estimation then selects for use three wave beams of 331b, 332b, 333b shown in Fig. 3 b to carry out the orientation and accurately estimates;
(3) use different wave beams number accurately to estimate to control the wave beam orientation, promptly still adopt the method for poll to find a suitable mobile subscriber's optimum beam orientation by Figure 10 flow process.
The system that base station of the present invention and mobile subscriber communicate, as shown in figure 11.This system is made of base station, aerial array two parts.Receive and dispatch with different wave beams the mobile subscriber of different azimuth this base station, for example to different mobile subscriber 1105,1106, can provide the wave beam 1103,1104 with different transmit-receive positions respectively.Not only improved base station and mobile phone communication distance, offset the interference on the non-beam direction, and improved communication quality.When location of mobile users was moved, beam direction can be adjusted in the base station, to realize the automatic scan and follow to the mobile subscriber.When base station apparatus of the present invention carries out the wave beam estimation, not only intensity indication is to received signal carried out outside the statistical decision, also quality is carried out statistical decision to received signal, thereby the wave beam estimated value is more accurately credible, simultaneously, the present invention uses poll and wave beam accurately to estimate the method that combines, and makes that the wave beam estimation is more accurate, speed is faster.
Figure l3 base station of the present invention when two mobile subscriber roads words, a real-time snapshot schematic diagram of the control signal waveform that grasps with oscilloscope.Put through a pair of mobile phone, they have taken time slot Slot2 and time slot Slot4 respectively, move two mobile phones then respectively.When the mobile phone that occupies the Slot2 time slot moves on to the wave beam orientation No. 1, promptly corresponding, and the mobile phone that occupies Slot4 moves to the wave beam orientation No. 3 with 301a among Fig. 3 a, promptly with Fig. 3 a in 303a at once, catch snapshot with oscilloscope.
