Abstract

The invention discloses a beam-forming method and device. The method comprises the following steps of: extracting a reference signal from uplink signals and resolving the high-level configuration of a cell to obtain the parameter configuration of the reference signal and generate a local signal; performing channel estimation by using the reference signal and the local signal to obtain a denoised channel coefficient; calculating a space covariance matrix on each subarray by using the channel coefficient; performing characteristic value decomposition on the covariance matrix to obtain a characteristic vector and further obtain a weighting coefficient accordingly; and weighting data transmitted to a terminal and an exclusive reference signal of the terminal by using the weighting coefficient to finish beam forming of a downlink. Due to the adoption of the steps in the method, the calculation process of beam forming is simplified, the beam forming realization speed can be effectively increased under the condition of ensuring a certain beam-forming accuracy, the time delay of a system is reduced, and the aims of pointing at a target terminal, reducing the signal demodulation errors and lowering the interference on other terminals are fulfilled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, and more specifically, to a beamforming method and device. Background technique [0002] In the wireless communication environment, the terminals are usually distributed in all directions of the base station. Due to the influence of the environment, the communication between the two will generate multipath signals, while the useful signals are distributed in a certain space. In order to ensure that the signals can be correctly demodulated , which puts high demands on signal reception and processing. In the existing LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) system, the beamforming technology is usually used to combat interference, and at the same time, it can dynamically adjust the shape and direction of the beam according to the channel information, so that the UE (User Equipment, terminal ) to maximize the received signal, while using the clear directivity of the bea...
