Method for enhancing WiMAX ascending performance using collaboration diversity

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for strengthening WiMAX uplink performance by using cooperative diversity, relating to a wireless communication system. By using the technology of cooperative diversity, users in the WiMAX system share resources with each other to form a virtual MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) system. Each of mutually cooperative users transmits the own signals to a base station, and simultaneously receives the signals transmitted by the cooperative users. After the user receives the signals of the cooperative users, the own signals and the received signals of the cooperative users are transmitted with an antenna by using different subcarriers. The cost of the system is saved and the power consumption of the system is reduced. By applying the cooperative diversity, the WiMAX system obtains obvious diversity gain, and the system performance is enhanced. In addition, the technology of cooperative diversity is combined with the key technology OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) of WiMAX physical layer, thereby forming cooperative diversity mechanism of frequency selective fading channel and solving the cooperative diversity problem of frequency selective fading channel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of wireless communication, in particular to a WiMAX system. Background technique [0002] In wireless communication, the space diversity MIMO system can be realized by using multi-transmission and multi-reception antenna technology. Without increasing the system bandwidth and the total antenna transmission power, the system capacity can be increased several times or even dozens of times. The improvement is dramatic. However, in systems such as cellular mobile communications, terminal devices (such as mobile phones) are limited by factors such as volume, weight, power consumption, and cost, so it is difficult to implement multi-antenna technology. In order to achieve multi-antenna on the terminal, the idea of ​​cooperative diversity came into being. Its core idea is to realize virtual multi-transmission by cooperating among terminal users with only a single antenna and sharing their transmitting antennas in a certain ...
