Abstract

The invention provides a horizontal and vertical combined calibration method and device for an active antenna array, and the method comprises the steps: respectively extracting transmitted data and received data of antennas in all columns of the active antenna array at the same moment; carrying out the calibration of the transmitted data and received data through a calibration signal; transmitting the calibrated transmitted data and receiving the calibrated received data at the same time. The method can carry out the calibration of the transmitted data and the received data at the same time, respectively carries out the transmission and receiving of the transmitted data and the received data, achieves the real-time dynamic calibration of the transmitted data and the received data, is higher in calibration precision, can obtain higher data consistency and signal to noise ratio, and further enlarges the capacity of a system and the coverage.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of active antenna array (AAA) calibration, in particular to the horizontal and vertical joint calibration of active antenna arrays under a LTE3D channel model (the model is defined in 3GPP standard TR36.873, but not limited to this channel model) Methods and devices. Background technique [0002] In the existing smart multi-antenna technology, MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) (spatial dimension) and beamforming (BF, Beamforming) (diversity technology) are used to eliminate and suppress interference between users, Improve cell coverage and improve system performance and spectrum efficiency. Beamforming, in particular, is a signal processing technology based on antenna arrays. It increases the array gain by adjusting the weight of each element, thereby improving the signal strength of the beamforming pointing direction. [0003] The wireless channel corresponding to beamforming is not symmetrical between ...
