Description
The present invention relates to an apparatus for modulating/demodulating signal by using a layered time-space architecture detector in a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system and a method thereof; and, more particularly, to the apparatus for modulating/demodulating signal by using a layered time-space architecture detector in a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system in order to increase a system performance by deciding an equivalent channel gain, deciding the number of bits for transmitting through each antenna and deciding a transmission power by using the a greedy algorithm based on the decided equivalent channel gain.
Generally, a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system is a wireless communication system obtaining high frequency efficiency by transmitting each different data through a plurality of transmission antennas in an identical bandwidth. There have been several detection methods for MIMO systems, such as a Diagonal Bell Laboratories Space Time (D-BLAST) system proposed in an article by G. J. Foschini, entitled “Layered Space-Time Architecture for Wireless Communication in a Fading Environment When using Multi-Element Antennas,” Bell Labs Technical Journal, fall, pp. 41˜59, 1999 and a Vertical-Bell Laboratories Space Time (V-BLAST) system introduced in an article by P. W. Wolniansky et.al., entitled “V-Blast: An Architecture for Realizing Very High Data Rates Over the Rich-Scattering Wireless Channel.” Proc. International Symposium Signals, Systems and Electronics, September, 1998.
The V-BLAST system is a modified scheme of the D-BLAST system.
Operations of detection in the V-BLAST system are explained in more detail hereinafter. At first, a symbol corresponding to a layer having the largest equivalent channel gain is detected based on a MIMO channel matrix and new channel matrix is built by nulling a channel corresponding to the currently detected layer after canceling the effect of the detected symbol in the channel matrix H. And the above mentioned steps are repeated until all symbols are detected. As a result of these operations, a layer having largest equivalent channel gain is detected for the first time. When the next symbol is detected, the effect of the first symbol is eliminated because it is considered as interference and then the next symbol is detected. Therefore, a diversity gain can be obtained when the next symbol is detected and a performance is increased.
In a meantime, a structure of V-BLAST system is in U.S. Pat. No. 6,317,466 B1 issued to G. J. Foschini, entitled “Wireless Communications System Having a Space-Time Architecture Employing Multi-Element antenna at both the Transmitter and Receiver” and also an adaptive modulation method is disclosed. But in the above mentioned patent by G. J. Foschini, a method for minimizing transmission power and changing modulation method commonly used for all antennas.
Furthermore, a greedy algorithm for allocating power and the number of bits in multicarrier systems is introduced in an article by C. Y. Wong, entitled “Multi-user OFDM with adaptive sub-carrier, bit and power allocation”, IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, Vol. 17, pp. 1747˜1758, October, 1999. The greedy algorithm is used for calculating a power and the number of bits of each subcarrier in order to transmit all information bits with the minimum transmission power while satisfying desired bit error rate under conditions such as single user orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is used, a frequency domain channel response corresponding to each subcarrier is known at the transmitter, the number of bits for transmitting at one OFDM symbol is predetermined and there is a desired bit error rate.

It is also disclosed that a method of selecting a subcarrier and transmitting antenna in order to reduce the amount of information transmitted to the transmitter. The above mentioned approaches using the V-BLAST ordering method may obtain nearly same performance for all layers when fixed modulation method is used. However, the performance is degraded in a case of an adaptive modulation is used.
The second method allocates a predetermined number of bits to all possible combinations of decision order for the optimal solution and selects the optimal order with minimum total transmission power. However, by reducing the number of combinations to be considered for finding the optimal solution, the performance is degraded.

Other objects and aspects of the invention will become apparent from the following description of the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, which is set forth hereinafter.
For helping to understand the present invention, a greedy algorithm used in an adaptive modulation/demodulation method in accordance with the present invention is explained at first.
For explaining the greedy algorithm, an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing method is used as an example.
At first, the transmission power of the nth subcarrier of, Pn, is given as:
In the Eq. 1, hn is a channel gain of the nth subcarrier, Cn is the number of bit for transmitting with the subcarrier, and f(Cn) is a is a transmission power for transmitting c bits with desired bit error rate (BER).
In a meantime, if an entire bits for transmitting one of OFDM symbol is R, a bit allocation method for minimizing a sum of transmission power of entire subcarrier can be expressed as:
subject to
In the Eq. 2, Nc is the number of total subcarriers, D represents a set of information bits per subcarrier determined by modulation/demodulation methods. For example, if a QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM and so on can be selected for the modulation/demodulation methods, then D={0, 2, 4, 6, 8, . . . }. In here, 0 means that no information is sent in the corresponding subcarrier.
The Eq. 2 can be solved by the greedy algorithm through following steps.
- step 1: For all subcarriers, we define cn=0,
- step 2: following
equations
is satified.
In the Eqs. 4 and 5, Δβ is the difference of elements of set D e.g., D={0, 2, 4, 6, . . . }. Therefore, Δβ=2.
step 3: after completing step 2, each Cn is determined and Pn is calculated by using eq. 1.
Finally, the number of bits allocated to each subcarrier, Cn, and the transmission power, Pn, is determined.
In the V-BLAST detection method, data transmitted from a plurality of transmitting antenna is detected as one by one and the detected symbols are cancelled for reducing interference to other signals. The next symbol is detected after canceling the channel effect corresponding to the previously detected symbol. Therefore, the equivalent channel gain is varied according to an order of nulling. The present invention provides a method for achieving performance gain by adaptively modulating the signal with an equivalent channel gain obtained by the reverse order of conventional V-BLAST detection order. Hereinafter, the V-BLAST detection method is explained at first.
Referring to FIG. 1 , in the MIMO wireless communication system having a detector of V-BLAST structure, a signal vector transmitted from each transmission antenna 13-1, 13-2, . . . , 13-M is defined as x=[x0, x1, . . . , xM-1]T and a signal vector received to each receiving antenna 15-1, 15-2, . . . 15-N is defined as y=[y0, y1, . . . , yN-1]T. M and N is the number of transmitting/receiving antennas and it is satisfied with a condition, N≧M. The received signal vector is expressed as:
y=Hx+v Eq. 6
In the Eq. 6, H is N×M channel matrix, the element of the nth row and, a mth column, hn,m, is a flat fading channel gain between mth transmitting antenna and nth receiving antenna. In a meantime, v is a N×1 white noise vector with zero mean and its covariance matrix is E[vvH]=σ2I. I is N×N unit matrix.
y=Hx+v Eq. 6
In the Eq. 6, H is N×M channel matrix, the element of the nth row and, a mth column, hn,m, is a flat fading channel gain between mth transmitting antenna and nth receiving antenna. In a meantime, v is a N×1 white noise vector with zero mean and its covariance matrix is E[vvH]=σ2I. I is N×N unit matrix.
For detection of the transmitting signal vector x from the receiving signal vector y, the V-BLAST detection method is used. A nulling vector for kth layer (kth transmission antenna signal) is defined as:
In the Eq. 7, (H)t is 1th column of matrix H and Wk T is a kth column of a pseudo-inverse matrix H+. A detection order is determined by considering a value of wk. In the conventional V-BLAST detection, a column of the matrix having smallest value of ∥wk∥ is detected at first. In a meantime, Zk is a decision statistic of kth layer and it is expressed as:
Zk=xk+wk Tv Eq. 8
In the Eq. 8, k={1, 2, . . . , M}. After determining the signal by considering the decision statistic Zk, an interference of the previous detected signal is cancelled and the channel matrix H is updated. That is, new channel matrix H is generated by setting kth column of prior matrix H as ‘0’. New received signal vector y′ is determined as:
y′=y−(H)kxk Eq. 9
y′=y−(H)kxk Eq. 9
In the Eq. 9, xk is a result of decision of Zk. The Eqs. 6 to 9 are repeatedly executed for calculating a nulling vector by using new channel matrix H′ and receiving signal vector y′ until all signals are detected. The above mentioned steps are detection steps of conventional V-BLAST. Order of detection is determined according to the magnitude of norm of nulling vector.
If the eq. 7 is used for calculating a signal-to-noise ratio of the decision statistics, ρk, which is calculated as:
In the, Eq. 10, E{ } is an expectation function and ∥wk∥2 is the equivalent channel gain. Therefore, a state of channel is better as ∥k∥ is getting smaller. The V-BLAST method for MIMO system using a fixed modulation/demodulation method detects a layer of best channel state at first and then detects a layer of worse channel state after eliminating interference of signals, which have already been detected in order to enhance performance of all layers.
However, the adaptive modulation/demodulation method detects a layer of best channel state later and information of a layer of worse channel is not transmitted or less amount of information is transmitted in order to enhance the performance. Therefore, the detection order must to be reversed for enhancing the performance in accordance with the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 5 , a MIMO system having V-BLAST detector includes an adaptive modulation unit 52 and an adaptive demodulation unit 57 for modulating/demodulating signals with using different demodulation/modulation method and controlling transmission power of the signal. The demodulation unit 57 includes a V-BLAST type detection unit.
Operations of the adaptive modulation/ demodulation units 52 and 57 are explained in detail as followings.
A transmitting data 51 is data transmitted from a transmitter. If necessary, this date would be scrambled, channel coded, and interleaved. The adaptive modulation unit receives the channel information and controls transmitting power by modulating the data with different modulation methods according to each layer by using bit and power allocation information.
When adaptively modulated signals are transmitted through M transmitting antennas 53-1 to 53-M, a bit and power allocation information calculator 54 determines the number of bits and transmitting power to be transmitted to each transmitting antennas 53-1 to 53-M by using MIMO channel information feedbacked from a receivers and the greedy algorithm.
Through the above mentioned operations, signals transmitted from the M transmitting antennas 53-1 to 53-M are transmitted to N receiving antennas 56-1 to 56-N through frequency non-selective fading MIMO channel. And the adaptive demodulation unit 57 demodulates the received signals by using channel estimation result from a MIMO channel estimator 58 and a bit allocate information from the bit allocation information calculator 59 in reverse order of V-BLAST. Finally, the demodulated signal is outputted.
Referring to FIG. 2 , although identical channel matrix is used, the equivalent channel gain is changed according to an order of detection such as an order of V-BLAST, a random order and a reverse order of V-BLAST. Thus, in case of detection according to the order of V-BLAST, a deviation of the equivalent channel gain is small and the sum of equivalent channel gain is small. And in case of detecting according to the reverse order of V-BLAST, the deviation and sum of the equivalent channel gain become larger.
A method for determining the equivalent channel gain in a reverse order of the V-BLAST detection method in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention is explained in detail.
Referring to FIG. 3 , at step 31, an antenna index set is defined (S={1, 2, . . . , M}) because of determining an order of detection for determining the equivalent channel gain. An pseudo-inverse Matrix of channel matrix H+ is calculated at step 32. At step 33, all nulling vectors wk T, kεS, are calculated based on the Eq. 7 for calculating transmitting signal vector x.
After the step 33, square root of a norm of nulling vector is calculated for determining a layer for nulling and kth layer having the largest value is selected at step 34. A column of the channel matrix corresponding to the selected kth layer is transformed to 0 vector and a value k is eliminated from the set S at step 35. The above mentioned steps are repeated M times with newly transformed set S and channel matrix H.
As mentioned above, an order of the selected layers becomes a detection order and an inverse of square root norm of the nulling vector for the selected layer becomes the equivalent channel gain. Furthermore, the number of bits transmitted at each layer (transmitting antenna) and corresponding transmitting power is calculated by using the calculated equivalent channel gain instead of subcarrier channel gain ∥hn∥12 in greedy algorithm.
Referring to FIG. 4 , at step 41, the number of bits transmitted at each layer (each transmitting antenna) is initialized as ‘0’. Δβ is defined based on the Eq. 2 and a transmitting power is calculated for obtaining an additional bit value of Δβ with desired bit error rate at each layer by using the equivalent channel gain of each layer. Among the calculated layers, a layer requiring the least transmitting power is selected and the value of Δβ is putted to the selected layer. The above mentioned steps are repeatedly performed until allocated total bit number is assigned. After determining the number of bits transmitted through each layer, a transmitting power of each layer is calculated based on the Eq. 1.
In the simulation, the number of transmitting and receiving antennas is 4 and a channel of each transmitting and receiving antenna is a complex Gaussian random variable with zero mean. For preventing to limit performance by influence of specific channel matrix, more than 1000 statistic channels are generated. The number of information bits for transmitting in a predetermined time is set to 8 and QPSK and 16-QAM are used for modulation method. Thus, D={0, 2, 4} and therefore, Δβ is 2.
In the simulation, a system performance of a conventional modulation/demodulation method implemented by using greed algorithm with singular value decomposition (SVD), which is known as the optimal solution in the adaptive modulation MIMO system is used for a lower bound for comparison. The conventional modulation/demodulation method is introduced by G. G Raleigh et. al., in “spatio-temporal coding for wireless communication” at Proc. IEEE Globecom, November, 1996, pp. 1809-1814 and it has too complicated structure. Thus, it is impossible to be implemented to real system.
Referring to the FIG. 6 , SVD is a result of the conventional modulation/demodulation method, BLAST is a result of using V-BLAST detection order introduced by Ka-wai Ng and BLAST(random order) is a result of using random detection order. BLAST(reverse) is a result of using reverse order of the V-BLAST detection order.
As shown in FIG. 6 , the present invention has 0.7 bB performance gain and 1 dB performance loss in comparison with Ka-wai Ng's method and the conventional modulation/demodulation method proposed by Raleigh.
Referring to FIG. 7 , an adaptive modulation MIMO system of the present invention can be expanded to the MIMO OFDM system. It is because a channel matrix H of the MIMO system can be replaced with a channel matrix in each subcarrier of MIMO-OFDM system. There are two methods implemented to the MIMO OFDM system.
A first method is a method for implementing adaptive modulation method to all layers M and all subcarriers Nc. At first, an equivalent channel gain is independently calculated according to a layer of each transmitting antenna and subcarrier. The equivalent channel gain is calculated according to the method in FIG. 4 as much as the number of layers of the transmitting antenna times the number of subcarriers. Finally, Nc×R number of information bits and transmitting power is allocated according to the greedy algorithm introduced in FIG. 4 by using the obtained Nc×R number of equivalent channel gains.
Therefore, when total data rate is determined in the MIMO-OFDM transmitter, the number of information bits and corresponding transmitting power can be determined by using the equivalent channel gain obtained by the greedy algorithm in FIG. 4 for allocating data bits to total antennas and subcarriers. Inhere, a value of M in FIG. 4 is a value of N becomes Nc×M. However, the first method is very complicated to be implemented in real system because of large number of comparison and equivalent channel gain calculation in the greedy algorithm.
A second method is a method for adaptively modulating signal per each subcarrier, independently. That is, if total data rate is predetermined in MIMO-OFDM system and the identical data bits are allocated to each sub carrier wave, the data bits must be allocated by obtaining the equivalent channel gain of each subcarrier. In this case, the number of the equivalent channel gain is M per each subcarrier. The data bits are allocated by using the greedy algorithm in FIG. 4 in M layers. Thus, Nc times of greedy algorithm are performed and the repetition number is decreased. The second method can be simply implemented comparing to the first method but its performance is decreased compared with the first method.
The bit and power allocation information calculator 73 allocates the data bits by using the channel matrix H of each subcarrier delivered by the MIMO channel estimation unit 82 and the transmission power is also allocated to each transmitting antennas 76-1 to 76-M by using the equivalent channel gain of each subcarrier.
The adaptive modulation unit based on V-BLAST type detector performs modulation operations using bits and power allocated to each transmitting antenna 76-1 to 76-M per each subcarrier.
For demodulating a received signal at the MIMO OFDM system, bits and transmitting power is known. Therefore, in the MIMO channel estimator 82 at a receiver, a channel matrix H of each subcarrier is estimated and performs operations for obtaining bits and power information using the greedy algorithm. The V-BLAST detection and adaptive demodulation unit 81 demodulates a signal using bit allocation information.
Referring to FIG. 8 , the simulation is progressed by using 4 transmitting and receiving antennas, 64 subcarriers and 16 cyclic prefixes are used for OFDM modulation. An exponentially decaying quasi-static fading channel having 8 taps is used.
The method as mentioned above can be implemented as a program and can be stored in a computer readable recording medium such as CD-ROM, RAM, ROM, Floppy disk. Hard disk and optical magnetic disk.
The present invention can improve performance above 0.7˜1.4dB performance gain comparing to conventional modulation method with random and V-BLAST detection orders without increase of implementation complexity.
