The present invention relates to a wireless communicating apparatus such as a portable phone, particularly, to a wireless communicating apparatus which is provided with a plurality of receiving methods and can communicate via wireless by using a preferable receiving method, and a receiving method selecting method and a receiving method selecting program in the wireless communicating apparatus provided.
In the W-CDMA (Wide band Code Division Multiple Access) communicating system which is compliant with the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) which is currently being standardized, the HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) has been proposed as a technique for realizing a high speed down link.
Meanwhile, since the receiving quality of received data, whose encoding ratio is high like the HSDPA, is easily influenced by a multi-path interference, it is necessary to provide the wireless communicating apparatus realizing the HSDPA with an interference canceller which can reduce the multi-path interference.
However, the interference canceller includes such a disadvantage that the ability can not be realized depending on a propagation channel condition, and also includes such a weak point that the decoding quality becomes worse than that of the conventional receiving method, in which the interference canceller is not used, depending on the propagation channel condition.
From the above description, it is necessary to communicate via wireless as separating, depending on an electric wave channel condition, a receiving method, such as the interference canceller, which needs to reduce the multi-path interference, a receiving method which does not need to reduce the multi-path interference without using the interference canceller, and the like.

There exists a document disclosing a geometry measuring method which is a geometry measuring method used by a wireless receiving apparatus in a wireless communicating system in a cellular method, includes a interfered signal electric power measuring step for measuring the electric power of an interfered signal included in a received signal for each path, an adding step for adding N paths of the interfered signal electric power measured for each path, a path excluded interfered signal electric power level measuring step for measuring the electric power of the interfered signal, which is not influenced by the path, but is included in the received signal, an own cell interfered signal electric power calculating step for calculating own cell interfered signal electric power by subtracting the adding result at the adding step from a value obtained by N-multiplying the measured path excluded interfered signal electric power, other cell interfered signal/noise electric power calculating step for calculating an added value of the electric power of an other cell interfered signal and a noise by subtracting the calculated own cell interfered signal electric power from the measured path excluded interfered signal electric power, and a geometry calculating step for calculating the geometry by dividing the calculated own cell interfered signal electric power by the calculated added value of the electric power of the other cell interfered signal and the noise, and can conveniently generate the geometry under the propagation environment in which the multi-path is formed, in which it can be easily determined whether to RAKE-receive the received signal, or to adaptively-receive the received signal by using an adaptive equalizer, the interference canceller, and the like in the wireless receiving apparatus (for example, refer to Patent Document 2).
Meanwhile, while the above Patent Document 1 discloses the wireless communicating apparatus which includes the selecting means for selecting the signal receiving method according to the estimated propagation environment, and enables the total system throughput to be improved, the above Patent Document 1 does not clearly describe that the preferable receiving method is determined according to a plurality of determination results for the path.
While the Patent Document 2 discloses the geometry measuring method which can conveniently generate the geometry under the propagation environment in which the multi-path is formed, in which it can be easily determined whether to RAKE-receive the received signal, or to adaptively-receive the received signal by using an adaptive equalizer, the interference canceller, and the like in the wireless receiving apparatus, the above Patent Document 2 does not clearly describe that the preferable receiving method is determined according to the plurality of determination results for the path.

First, the features of the wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described as referring to
The wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment is the wireless communicating apparatus provided with the two receiving methods of the first receiving method which is used in the propagation path environment in which it is necessary to reduce the multi-path interference, and the second receiving method which is used in the propagation path environment in which it is not necessary to reduce the multi-path interference. The wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment is characterized by executing a first determination (step S1) for determining whether or not the fluctuation in time for the path is less than the predetermined threshold, and a second determination (step S2) for determining whether or not the number of the paths is less than the predetermined threshold, and determining (step S3, 4) to use which receiving method of the first receiving method or the second receiving method to communicate via wireless according to the determination result by the first determination (step S1) and the determination result by the second determination (step S2). Thereby, in the wireless communicating apparatus provided with the two receiving methods of the receiving method which needs to reduce the multi-path interference, and the receiving method which does not need to reduce the multi-path interference, it becomes possible to determine the preferable receiving method according to a plurality of the determination results for the path. Hereinafter, the wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described as referring to the accompanied drawings.
First, the multi-path interference will be described as referring to
When a wireless signal from a base station (1) reaches a wireless communicating apparatus (2) without being disturbed by a propagation channel, the number of a path, which means a road through which the wireless signal passes, ideally becomes one. Here, this is referred to as “main path”. However, when the wireless signal from the base station (1) encounters an obstacle (3), and the like to reflect on the way of the propagation channel, a plurality of the paths result in reaching the wireless communicating apparatus (2). Such a path except the “main path” is referred to as “multi-path”. It is generally considered that the receiving quality degradation of the “multi-path” is larger than that of the “main path” in the propagation channel of each path, and as compared with the “main path”, as the distance becomes larger in time, the receiving quality is degraded more in the “multi-path”. The influence to the receiving quality, which is provided by the “multi-path” as a noise component to a signal component of the “main path”, is referred to as multi-path interference.
Meanwhile, since the receiving quality for received data, whose encoding ratio is high like the HSDPA, is easily influenced by the multi-path interference, it is necessary to provide the wireless communicating apparatus (2) realizing the HSDPA with an interference canceller which can reduce the multi-path interference.
However, the interference canceller includes such a disadvantage that the ability can not be realized enough depending on the propagation channel condition, and also includes such a weak point that the decoding quality becomes worse than that of the conventional receiving method, in which the interference canceller is not used, depending on the propagation channel condition.
Thus, the present inventor has tried a variety of improvements and has been dedicated in the research to solve the above problem, and as a result, the present inventor has developed the wireless communicating apparatus which is a wireless communicating apparatus provided with the interference canceller which is necessary to receive data whose encoding ratio is high like the HSDPA, and which can control so as to communicate via wireless by using the conventional receiving method when the propagation channel condition is a condition which is difficult for the interference canceller to process, and so as to communicate via wireless by using the interference canceller when the propagation channel condition is otherwise.
As described above, by controlling so as to communicate via wireless as separating the interference canceller and the conventional receiving method according to the electric wave condition, in the wireless communicating apparatus provided with the interference canceller which is necessary to receive data whose encoding ratio is high like the HSDPA, it becomes possible to obtain a favorable decoding quality which is not less than that of the conventional receiving method even under an environment of any propagation channel condition. Meanwhile, the conventional receiving method is, for example, the lake receiver, or the like. The interference canceller is, for example, a time domain equalizer, or the like.
Next, an internal configuration of the wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described as referring to
The wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment is configured with an antenna (101), an HSDPA receiver (102), a demodulation processing unit (103), and a decode processing unit (104).

Meanwhile, a received signal received by the antenna (101) is converted to a received IQ signal, and the converted received IQ signal is inputted to the HSDPA receiver (102). An inverse diffusion process is applied to the converted received IQ signal by the HSDPA receiver (102), and the inverse diffusion-processed received IQ signal is outputted to the demodulation processing unit (103), and the decode processing unit (104).
Meanwhile, the path search processing unit (1021) estimates a propagation channel condition (distribution in time for the path, the number of the paths) and a path position based on the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102), and outputs information on the estimated propagation channel condition and path position to the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022).
The HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) receives the information on the propagation channel condition and the path position inputted from the path search processing unit (1021), determines in an inverse diffusion mode whether to execute a canceller process or to process in the conventional receiving method based on the received propagation channel condition, and outputs information on the determination result in the inverse diffusion mode and the path position to the canceller processing unit (1023). The HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) sets information, which is necessary when the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023) are controlled to operate, in the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023).
The HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) controls to start, stop, and initialize the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023).
The canceller processing unit (1023) receives the information on the determination result in the inverse diffusion mode and the path position inputted from the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), executes the canceller process or the process in the conventional receiving method for the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102), and outputs the inverse diffusion-processed received IQ signal to the demodulation processing unit (103), and the decode processing unit (104).
Next, a control operation in the wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described as referring to
First, when a control signal for starting the HSDPA communication is inputted, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) initializes the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023). Next, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) inputs a parameter value, which is necessary to control the HSDPA communication, in the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023), and starts the path search processing unit (1021) and the canceller processing unit (1023) at a appropriate timing respectively.
Meanwhile, when being started by the control from the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), the path search processing unit (1021) estimates the propagation channel condition (distribution in time for the path, the number of the paths) and the path position based on the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102), and outputs information on the estimated propagation channel condition and path position to the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022).
Meanwhile, the path search processing unit (1021) periodically estimates the propagation channel information and the path position based on the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102), and outputs the information on the estimated propagation channel condition and path position to the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022).
The HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) receives the information on the propagation channel condition and the path position inputted from the path search processing unit (1021), executes the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode illustrated in
Meanwhile, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) periodically executes the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode illustrated in
The canceller processing unit (1023) executes the canceller process or the process of the conventional receiving method for the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102) based on the information on the determination result in the inverse diffusion mode and the path position inputted from the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), and outputs the inverse diffusion-processed received IQ signal to the demodulation processing unit (103) and the decode processing unit (104).
The demodulation processing unit (103) executes a demodulation process based on the received IQ signal inputted from the HSDPA receiver (102). The decode processing unit (104) executes a decode process based on the received IQ signal inputted from the HSDPA receiver (102).
Next, the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode executed by the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) will be described as referring to
First, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines whether or not the fluctuation in time for the path is small based on the information on the propagation channel condition inputted from the path search processing unit (1021) (step S1). Meanwhile, since the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines whether or not the fluctuation in time for the path is small based on a threshold which is previously set in the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), when determining that the fluctuation in time for the path is less than the predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the fluctuation in time for the path is small, and when determining that the fluctuation in time for the path is equal to or more than the-predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the fluctuation in time for the path is large.
Meanwhile, since the receiving quality of the main path is high if the fluctuation in time for the path is small, when determining that the fluctuation in time for the path is small (step S1/No), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines to use the conventional receiving method (step S4), and terminates the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode.
When determining that the fluctuation in time for the path is large (step S1/Yes), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines whether or not the number of the paths is small (step S2). Since the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines whether or not the number of the paths is small based on a threshold which is previously set in the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), when determining that the number of the paths is less than the predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the number of the paths is small, and when determining that the number of the paths is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the number of the paths is large.
Meanwhile, since it is considered that the receiving quality of the main path is high if the number of paths is small, when determining that the number of paths is large (step S2/No), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines to use the conventional receiving method (step S4), and terminates the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode.
When determining that the number of paths is small (step S2/Yes), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines to use the interference canceller (step S3), and terminates the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode.
As described above, by controlling so as to communicate via wireless as separating the interference canceller and the conventional receiving method according to the propagation channel condition, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) according to the present embodiment becomes able to improve the decode quality by the interference canceller, and also to maintain the same decode quality as that of the case that the conventional receiving method is used even in such a propagation channel condition that the decode quality in the case that only the interference canceller is provided is less than the decode quality in the case that the conventional receiving method is used. Thus, even under the environment of any propagation channel condition, it becomes possible to maintain the decode quality in the case that the conventional receiving method is used, and also, to improve the decode quality by the interference canceller.
Next, a second exemplary embodiment will be described.
As illustrated in
Meanwhile, the wireless communicating apparatus according to the second exemplary embodiment estimates the propagation channel condition (the distribution in time for the path, the number of the paths, the ratio of the noise to the received IQ signal) and the path position based on the received IQ signal inputted in the HSDPA receiver (102) in the path search processing unit (1021) illustrated in
First, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) executes the first determination (step S11) for determining whether or not the fluctuation in time for the path is small, and the second determination (step S12) for determining whether or not the number of the paths is small based on the information on the propagation channel condition inputted from the path search processing unit (1021) like the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode illustrated in
When determining that the number of the paths is small (step S12/Yes), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines whether or not the received IQ signal is dominant for the noise (step S13). When determining whether or not the received IQ signal is dominant for the noise, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines based on a threshold previously set in the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), and when determining that the ratio of the noise to the received IQ signal is less than the predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the received IQ signal is dominant for the noise, and when determining that the ratio of the noise to the received IQ signal is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold, the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines that the received IQ signal is not dominant for the noise.
Meanwhile, since it is considered that the receiving quality of the main path is high when the received IQ signal is dominant for the noise, when determining that the received IQ signal is not dominant for the noise (step S13/No), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines to use the conventional receiving method (step S15), and terminates the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode.
When determining that the received IQ signal is dominant for the noise (step S13/Yes), the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) determines to use the interference canceller (step S14), and terminates the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode.
As described above, the wireless communicating apparatus according to the second exemplary embodiment further executes the third determination (step S13) for determining whether or not the ratio of the noise to the received IQ signal is less than the predetermined threshold, and determines (step S14, 15) to use which receiving method of the first receiving method or the second receiving method to communicate via wireless according to the determination results of the first determination result (step S11), the second determination result (step S12), and the third determination result (step S13), thereby, executes a more accurate determining process, and in the wireless communicating apparatus provided with the interference canceller which is necessary to receive data whose encoding ratio is high like the HSDPA, even under the environment of any propagation channel condition, it becomes possible to obtain the favorable decode quality which is not less than that of the conventional receiving method.
Meanwhile, the above embodiment is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and the present invention can be implemented by applying a variety of modifications without departing from the scope of the concept of the present invention.
For example, in the above embodiments, while each condition is determined based on the threshold which is previously set in the wireless communicating apparatus when executing the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode illustrated in
While it is not described that information of the canceller processing unit (1023) is fed back to the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) in the above embodiments, for example, it is also possible to construct so that the canceller processing unit (1023) estimates the propagation channel condition and the path position like the path search processing unit (1021), and feeds back information on the estimated propagation channel condition and path position to the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022), and the HSDPA receiver controlling unit (1022) totally analyzes the information on the propagation channel condition and the path position inputted from the path search processing unit (1021), and the information on the propagation channel condition and the path position inputted from the canceller processing unit (1023), and executes the determining process in the inverse diffusion mode illustrated in
While the HSDPA has been described in the above embodiments, the wireless communicating apparatus according to the present embodiment is not limited to the HSDPA, and can be applied to another wireless communicating technique if the technique is the wireless signal receiving for the data rate whose encoding ratio is high.
