Definitions
- This invention relates to RF data repeaters and more particularly, to the use of an RF repeater to enhance signal to noise and interference ratios with an electronic signature added to the repeated signal to eliminate location measurement errors.
- Wireless data services are used for remote access of e-mail, internet, company information and others.
- operators need to support perceived data rates of 64 kbps or greater.
- wireless data services such as GPRS and EDGE
- users will find that their realized data rate will decrease by a significant percentage when moved from locations near cell base station sites toward the cell edges.
- less than 20% of a cell area is estimated to be capable of the peak data rate in a coverage-limited deployment.
- Wireless networks are currently being enhanced to provide position measurement capability. These methods provide the network with an estimate of the location of a mobile unit, such as for emergency 911 (E911) mobile phone service.
- Location Measurement Units LMU are typically inserted at the base station with time of arrival (TO A) signal processing means to estimate the distance from the mobile unit to the LMU, assuming straight line radio propagation.
- RF repeaters are used to boost the mobile transmitted signals at the periphery of the coverage area.
- the radio path taken through such a repeater may not be a direct path, the distance measured by the LMU does not correspond to the true straight-line distance from the LMU to the transmitting mobile unit. This results in significant location measurement errors for the repeated mobile signals.
- One current method for solving the erroneous E911 LMU distance calculation problem is to co-locate an LMU next to each RF repeater along with a means for communicating the distance measurement information back to the network based mobile location center.
- This method is inefficient in at least two ways: first, it requires an LMU at every repeater site which adds to costs and makes each repeater site bulkier; and second, a separate data link or additional data bits are needed to transmit the distance information to the base station.
- the invention provides in one aspect a data repeater which consist of two antenna functions, receive and transmit, per direction.
- the receive antenna function receives the base station transmitted signal and the transmit antenna function retransmits the downlink signal towards the mobile unit.
- the receive antenna function receives the mobile unit transmitted signal and the transmit function retransmits the uplink signal towards the base station.
- one diplexed (combined transmit and receive with different frequencies) antenna is pointed in the direction of the desired base station and another diplexed antenna is pointed toward the desired location of increased mobile data service.
- the antennas are connected to an RF processing module which isolates the downlink and uplink signals, filters specific frequency bands, provides low noise amplification and transmitter power amplification circuitry, and circuitry for tagging the uplink signals.
- the data repeater consists of a diplexed antenna which is tuned to a predetermined uplink frequency band.
- the uplink signal once received by the receiving antenna is routed to a diplexer (to separate it from the transmitted downlink signal) and further routed to uplink signal tagging equipment which introduces a unique electronic signature to the uplink signal to identify which data repeater is being used.
- This signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation of the received uplink signal with an additional non-interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signal.
- the modulated uplink signal is then routed to the output diplexer and transmitted to the base station with a diplexed antemia.
- the data repeater can introduce signal tagging on both the downlink and uplink signals through the repeater.
- the signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation of the received downlink and uplink signals with additional non interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signals.
- the base stations include a Location Measurement Unit (LMU) to provide a mobile unit position determination capability.
- LMU incorporates a time of arrival (TOA) receiver to measure the propagation time delay between the mobile unit and LMU and converts this time delay measurement to a distance measurement, assuming straight line propagation.
- TOA time of arrival
- the addition of data repeaters to the network will introduce errors in the position determination because the assumption of straight line propagation is no longer valid.
- the unique uplink signal tag introduced by the data repeater is detected by additional circuitry in the LMU.
- a pseudonoise (PN) code correlator in the LMU detects the uplink signal tag and reports the repeater tag ID to the Mobile Location Center (MLC).
- MLC Mobile Location Center
- the MLC determines the true position of the mobile unit from the TOA receiver measurements, the reported repeater tag ID information, and a database which includes geographical coordinates of the identified repeater. Accordingly, one of the objects of the invention is to boost the signal levels over the desired areas to support higher data rates without the need to deploy a new base station.
- Another object of the invention is to tag the downlink signals passing through the repeater with unique electronic signatures so that true locations of the transmitting base stations can be identified.
- Figure 1 is an illustration of a wireless communications cell site with additional high throughput coverage area provided by a data repeater.
- Figure 2 shows an overview structure of a mobile unit position dete ⁇ nination system according to the present invention.
- Figure 3 shows a conceptual block diagram of a RF repeater with uplink signal tagging according to the present invention.
- Figure 4 shows a conceptual block diagram of a RF repeater with uplink and downlink signal tagging according to the present invention.
- Figure 5 shows a conceptual block diagram of a location measurement unit with circuitry to detect tagged signals according to the present invention.
- Figure 6 shows the interaction between the location measurement unit and the mobile location center according to the present invention.
- the present invention provides RF repeaters with the ability to enhance signal to noise and interference ratios over selected areas within the cell site, in particular to enable high data rate transmissions required by the wireless data systems. Additionally, it provides RF repeaters with the ability to tag signals passing through the repeater with unique electronic signatures so that the true locations of the transmitting mobile units can be identified.
- FIG. 1 is an illustration of a wireless communications cell site with additional high throughput coverage area provided by a data repeater.
- a base station 10 has a defined coverage area or cell site 11. Typically, selected areas within the cell site 11 could benefit from data rate enhancement.
- a repeater 20 or a plurality of repeaters are usually strategically added within the cell site to enhance signal to noise and interference ratios in these particular areas of the coverage.
- the radio path taken through such a repeater 20 may not be a direct-straight path, the distance measured by the LMU 12 does not correspond to the true straight-line distance from the LMU to the transmitting mobile unit. This results in significant location measurement errors for the repeated mobile signals.
- FIG 2 shows an overview structure of a mobile unit position determination system (MUPDS) according to the present invention.
- the MUPDS comprises a mobile location center (MLC) 1, base stations 10, LMUs 12 and repeaters 20.
- MLC mobile location center
- the MLC determines the location of each mobile user with the user location information provided by the LMUs 12 as shown in Figures 5 and 6.
- FIG 3 shows a conceptual block diagram of a RF repeater with uplink signal tagging according to the present invention.
- the RF repeater comprises one diplexed (combined transmit and receive with different frequencies) antenna 22 which is pointed in the direction of the desired base station and another diplexed antenna 23 which is pointed toward the desired location of increased mobile data service.
- the antennas 22 & 23 are connected to an RF processing module 25 which isolates the downlink and uplink signals and filters specific frequency bands through the filter/diplexer 26a & 26b, provides low noise amplification and transmitter power amplification circuitry 27, modulation circuitry 28a & 28b, and circuitry for tagging the uplink signals 29a & 29b.
- the data repeater 20 consists of a diplexed antenna 23 which is tuned to a predetermined uplink frequency band.
- the uplink signal once received by the receiving antenna is routed to a filter/diplexer 26b (to separate it from the transmitted downlink signal) and further routed to uplink signal tagging circuitry 29b which introduces a unique electronic signature to the uplink signal to identify which data repeater is being used.
- This signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation 28b of the received uplink signal with an additional non- interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signal.
- the modulated uplink signal is then routed to the output diplexer 26a and transmitted to the base station with a diplexed antenna 22.
- the data repeater can introduce signal tagging on both the downlink and uplink signals through the repeater.
- the signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation of the received downlink and uplink signals with additional non interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signals as shown in Figure 4.
- the data repeater 20 consists of a diplexed antenna 23 which is tuned to a predetermined uplink frequency band.
- the uplink signal once received by the receiving antenna is routed to a filter/diplexer 26b (to separate it from the transmitted downlink signal) and further routed to uplink signal tagging circuitry 29b which introduces a unique electronic signature to the uplink signal to identify which data repeater is being used.
- This signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation 28b of the received uplink signal with an additional non-interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signal.
- the modulated uplink signal is then routed to the output diplexer 26a and transmitted to the base station with a diplexed antenna 22.
- the data repeater 20 consists of a diplexed antenna 23 which is tuned to a predetermined downlink frequency band.
- the downlink signal once received by the diplexed antenna 22 is routed to a filter/diplexer 26a (to separate it from the transmitted downlink signal) and further routed to the downlink signal tagging circuitry 29a which introduces a unique electronic signature to the downlink signal for unique identification.
- This signal tagging may be performed by amplitude or phase modulation 28a of the transmitted downlink signal with an additional non- interfering direct sequence spread spectrum signal.
- the modulated downlink signal is then routed to the output diplexer 26b and transmitted to a repeater or directly to a user with a diplexed antenna 23. Amplification of the signals can be achieved with the introduction of amplifiers 27 strategically located on the signal route as seen in Figure 4.
- FIG. 5 shows a conceptual block diagram of a location measurement unit (LMU) 12 with circuitry to detect tagged signals according to the present invention.
- the base stations include a LMU 12 to provide a mobile unit position determination capability.
- the LMU 12 comprises a diplexed antenna 31, a filter/diplexer 32 , amplifiers 33, a mixer 37, IF chain 34 and /Q demodulator 35. This portion of the LMU implementation is disclosed for illustrative purposes only. Other implementations of this portion of the LMU will be understood by those skilled in the art.
- the LMU additionally incorporates a time of arrival (TOA) receiver 36 to measure the propagation time delay between the mobile unit and LMU, and subsequently, this time delay measurement may be converted to a distance measurement, assuming straight line propagation.
