The invention discloses a 4G FDD stock terminal direct connection
satellite-oriented
time synchronization method, which comprises the following steps: firstly, a
base station delays a starting point of a
preamble sequence detection window and enlarges the window size, the
base station receives a
preamble sequence in the enlarged window and detects the size of time
delay by decoding the
preamble sequence, and after the
base station determines the size of the time
delay, the base
station delays the starting point of the preamble sequence detection window; according to the method, time
delay is divided into an integer part tau i and a decimal part tau f by taking milliseconds as a unit, terminals are divided into two types according to whether the decimal time delay is greater than 0.66 ms or not, so that an uplink frame structure of a base
station is modified, the base
station determines an uplink
subframe scheduling strategy according to the uplink frame structure, the decimal part tau f of the time delay is used for determining a TA value, and the TA value is used for scheduling the uplink
subframe. The integer part tau i is used for delaying receiving of uplink information, and the scheduling strategy is applied to subsequent receiving and transmitting of Msg3, downlink HARQ and other uplink information; the stock 4G terminal is directly connected with the
satellite under the condition that only the base station side protocol is modified and the terminal side protocol is not changed, so that the 4G communication
system supports larger time delay, and meanwhile, the upgrading cost of an operator and a user is reduced.
