The present application relates to the field of radio communication, and in particular, to a method for mapping probability shaping and a method for receiving and processing probability de-shaping.
With the emergence of new technologies such as new frequency bands, ultra large scale and distributed antennas, as well as intelligent reflecting surfaces, a receiving signal-to-noise ratio in future communication systems is expected to be further improved. Therefore, it is required to design constellation diagrams with higher modulation orders to enhance bit rate. However, under high signal-to-noise ratio and high spectral efficiency, same probability based rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) constellation modulation has a problem of significant shaping loss, and a constellation shaping technology needs to be introduced to avoid the loss.
When a code block of a shaped code for constellation shaping is short, a constellation probability shaping scheme based on constant composition distribution matching (CCDM) has a problem of significant rate loss, while a constellation probability shaping scheme based on enumeration sphere shaping (ESS) has a problem of higher storage complexity.

To illustrate the solutions disclosed in embodiments of the present application or in the related art more clearly, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments are briefly described below. The drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present application.
To clearly illustrate the various embodiments of the present application, some relevant background knowledge is first introduced as follows.
In high-order modulation systems with limited bandwidth, compared to same probability based rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), a total gain of the system may be obtained through encoding gain and shaping gain. The encoding gain is mainly determined by distance spectrum characteristics of channel encoding, and the shaping gain depends on design of a modulation constellation diagram. By designing an optimal constellation diagram, a communication system may achieve approximately 1.53 dB asymptotic gain under high spectral efficiency and high signal-to-noise ratio.
Constellation shaping is a technology that modifies a distance or probability of constellation points to approach an optimal input distribution of the channel. High-order modulation systems with limited bandwidth may obtain shaping gains based on constellation shaping technology. The constellation shaping is mainly divided into the following modes.
GS assumes that each constellation point is configured with same probability. By finding a position of an optimal constellation point or designing unequal spacing distances between constellation points, the geometric shape of the signal constellation is similar to a hypersphere.
PS assumes that each constellation point is equidistant. By adopting signal superposition and a shaper to modify usage probabilities of these rectangular QAM equidistant constellation points, optimal input distributions of the transmitted signal and the channel approach.
According to dimensional division, GS and PS may further be divided into one-dimensional shaping and multidimensional shaping.
In one-dimensional shaping, only constellation points in one resource element (RE) are considered, so it is only necessary to modify coordinate distance of constellation points on one complex plane or usage probabilities of rectangular QAM constellation points on one complex plane.
In multidimensional shaping, constellation points on multiple REs are taken as one complex vector/sequence, and a geometric shape of the complex vector/sequence constellation points in a high-dimensional space, or usage probabilities of rectangular QAM constellation points in the high-dimensional space are jointly modified.
64-QAM modulation is taken as an example. Constellation modulation is decomposed into two channels of 8-ASK. A binary index of 8-ASK is labeled with three bits of binary reflected gray code (BRGC).
In a PAS scheme, by performing serial-to-parallel conversion, a transmitter divides a to-be-transmitted binary bit stream into two parts: Ua and Us. A shaped amplitude bit A is obtained from Ua through the shaper. Us and A are used as a system bit input for a systematic forward error-correction code (SFEC). A check bit P for SFEC is obtained after encoding. Us and P are combined to form a polarity bit S. A and S uniquely determine the ASK constellation point. When Us is an empty set, the check bit P is directly obtained by encoding the amplitude bit A with SFEC.
A receiver first demodulates a received signal to obtain demodulation information, and then obtains a transmission bit through SFEC decoding and shaping. This scheme adopts a rear de-shaping module, without requiring a shaped code to support soft detection. In the entire PAS system, SFEC may be designed based on any systemic channel error-correction code, and the shaper is the key design for the entire system, which is usually implemented based on constant composition distribution matching (CCDM) or enumerative sphere shaping (ESS) shaped codes. The following is an introduction to a CCDM-based shaper and an ESS-based shaper.
A target amplitude probability distribution PA is given. The CCDM-based shaper maps a binary bit stream to a sequence C=C1C2 . . . Cn having a length of n and based on for example, arithmetic coding. An empirical distribution of the sequence C is
where nx(c) represents the number of occurrences of x in the sequence C, nx(c)=└PA(x)·n┘ or nx(c)=┌PA(x)·n┐, and a rounding mode may be determined by solving a minimum entropy difference D(PC∥PA). For example, PA=[PA(a1), PA(a2), PA(a3),
n=4, then na
H(.) indicating the calculation of information entropy. When n is small, the number of sequences C that satisfies the empirical distribution is much smaller than n·H(A), so CCDM-based shaper will result in larger rate loss RLoss.
The ESS-based shaper maps a binary bit stream to a sequence C=C1C2 . . . Cn of length n, where the sequence satisfies an energy constraint condition Σi=1n ci2≤Emax. The sequences C that satisfy the ESS constraint condition are much more than the sequences C that satisfy the CCDM constraint condition, and are closer to n·H(A). Therefore, the ESS-based shaper has relatively small rate loss RLoss. For all sequences C that satisfy the energy constraint (points within a high-dimensional sphere), index numbers may be described through a look up table (LUT) or bounded energy trellis (BET) to achieve probability shaping. The shaping process of the ESS-based shaper is as follows:
The space/storage complexity of this algorithm is O(L(n+1)nR),
and the computational complexity is O(|A|nR). It may be seen that the computational complexity of the ESS-based shaper increases linearly with respect to n, and the computational complexity is relatively low. However, the storage complexity increases quadratically with respect to n, and the storage complexity is relatively high when n is large.
It should be noted that the CCDM-based shaper or the ESS-based shaper usually do not support soft input and soft output, and a rear de-shaping PAS architecture is required to be combined.
When a code block of the shaped code is short, a traditional CCDM-based shaper has significant rate loss, and the ESS-based shaper overcomes the disadvantage of rate loss. However, when the code block of the shaped code is large, its storage complexity is high, which is not conducive to the actual deployment of communication systems.
To overcome above shortcomings, embodiments of the present application provide a method for mapping probability shaping and a method for receiving and processing probability de-shaping. Decoding may be performed based on a target amplitude probability distribution through a first decoder dedicated to a channel code. Probability shaping is performed to obtain small rate loss and lower shaping complexity.

For each target bit layer among the multiple bit layers, the syndrome corresponding to the target bit layer and the first decoded codeword may be input into the first decoder corresponding to the target bit layer to obtain the decoded codeword corresponding to the target bit layer.
In an embodiment, after obtaining the decoded codeword corresponding to each of the multiple bit layers, the shaped amplitude bit may be obtained based on the decoded codeword corresponding to each of the multiple bit layers, and then the modulation constellation point may be uniquely determined based on the shaped amplitude bit and the target polarity bit.
As shown in
The input bit Ua of the shaper is layer-mapped based on the number of bits each bit layer may carry, and is divided into Ua1, Ua2, Ua3, and so on. For the i-th bit layer, Ua1 is taken as a syndrome, and is input to a channel code decoder of layer i and the soft bit of the decoder of layer i perform calculation based on the target amplitude probability distribution condition PA
In an embodiment, during the shaping process of the shaper, the information bit is loaded onto the syndrome of the channel code. As the soft bit of the decoder is calculated layer by layer based on the target amplitude probability distribution PA, each obtained codeword will approach the conditional target amplitude probability distribution PA
