[0002] Traditional codebooks, including Alamouti codes, such as Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code (OSTBC), can achieve full diversity gain and full data rate. However, they are designed for traditional active radio frequency communication and do not take into account the modulation characteristics and implementation complexity of passive terminals such as backscatter communication. At the same time, they require the decoder to know the channel state information (CSI) between all transmitting and receiving antennas.

[0003] There is an urgent need for a differential space-time block code encoding method that does not require the decoder to know the CSI between all transmitting and receiving antennas, while reducing the system implementation complexity. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The encoding end determines the transmission symbol for the next symbol period based on the transmitted symbol of the current symbol period obtained through encoding and the NSTBC codebook.

[0008] Secondly, an encoding device is provided, comprising:

[0009] The differential coding module is used by the encoder to encode the transmitted symbol for the current symbol period using the DSTBC encoding method and the NSTBC codebook.

[0010] The NSTBC encoding module is used by the encoding end to determine the transmission symbol of the next symbol period based on the transmitted symbol of the current symbol period obtained by encoding and the NSTBC codebook.

[0029] To better understand the technical solution of this application, the following will be introduced first:

[0030] Future 6G communication networks need to support massive Internet of Things (IoT) deployments, with the number of IoT devices reaching hundreds of billions. The connection density will be 10-100 times higher than 5G, reaching 10-100 devices / m². This massive number of IoT devices presents new challenges in terms of cost and power consumption. Cellular networking, low cost, low power consumption, and even zero-power passive operation are the main trends in the future development of IoT devices. Traditional passive terminals are limited by their power consumption and hardware capabilities, with communication transmission distances mostly below 10 meters, far from achieving the 100-meter coverage target of cellular networks. Therefore, effectively improving the communication distance of passive terminals is a key challenge that needs to be addressed after the technology is implemented in a cellular network.

[0031] Since backscatter communication (BSC) controls the amplitude or phase of a signal by changing the load impedance, and considering other non-ideal factors in the backscatter communication modulation circuit, the amplitude or phase of the output signal will inevitably have some error. However, as long as these signal errors are within a resolvable range, they have little impact on signal demodulation. Therefore, the fewer or fewer types of load impedances that need to be controlled on each antenna, the greater the tolerable error and the lower the probability of false detection. Furthermore, due to the power consumption and capability limitations of backscatter communication equipment (BSC UE), in some cases it is undesirable to waste power and resources by transmitting pilot signals; that is, the decoding end should be able to complete signal demodulation without needing to know the CSI information.

[0032] Backscatter Communication (BSC)

[0033] Backscatter communication refers to the transmission of information by backscatter communication devices using radio frequency signals from other devices or the environment for signal modulation. Its modulation circuitry includes... Figure 1a As shown, backscatter communication devices control the reflection coefficient Γ of the circuit by adjusting its internal impedance, thereby changing the amplitude, frequency, and phase of the incident signal to achieve signal modulation. The signal reflection coefficient can be characterized as:

[0034]

[0035] Where Z0 is the characteristic impedance of the antenna, Z1 is the load impedance, j represents a complex number, and θ T This represents the phase. Assume the incident signal is S. in (t), then the output signal is Therefore, by reasonably controlling the reflection coefficient, corresponding amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, or phase modulation can be achieved. Based on this, backscatter communication devices can be tags in traditional Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) or passive / semi-passive Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For convenience, they are collectively referred to here as BSC UE.

[0036] Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code (OSTBC)

[0037] Space-Time Block Code (STBC) is widely used in cellular communications and wireless local area networks. STBC achieves diversity gain and antenna gain without increasing bandwidth by introducing signal redundancy in the spatial and temporal domains and by constructing a reasonable block coding transmission matrix.

[0038] OSTBC is a special type of linear STBC whose linear space-time block code S satisfies the following single condition:

[0039]

[0040] Where I represents an identity matrix of dimension M, i represents the i-th element of the M-dimensional matrix, and s i These are diagonal elements. The element in the i-th row of S represents the symbol transmitted on the i-th transmitting antenna during M time periods, and the element in the j-th column of S represents the symbol transmitted on the n-th transmitting antenna. t The symbol transmitted on the root antenna at time j. Each column of the transmission matrix S, satisfying the above formula, is mutually orthogonal. This means that the transmitted signal sequences on different antennas are also orthogonal, ensuring that the STBC can achieve full diversity gain simultaneously. The corresponding decoding end only needs to perform simple maximum ratio combining (MRC) to sequentially decouple the transmitted symbols on different antennas, and then use the maximum likelihood (ML) algorithm for detection and estimation.

[0041] Alamouti codes are the most representative OSTCB codes and can achieve full diversity and full rate gain. For example... Figure 1b The diagram shows the principle of Alamouti codes. Within a given symbol period, two symbols are transmitted simultaneously on two antennas. Assume that in the current symbol period, the symbol transmitted on antenna 1 is denoted as s1, and the symbol transmitted on antenna 2 is denoted as s2. However, in the next symbol period, the symbol transmitted on antenna 1 is... The symbol transmitted on antenna 2 is This results in the following space-time block code matrix:

[0042]

[0043] Suppose the channels from the two transmit antennas to the receive antenna are denoted as h1 and h2, respectively, and satisfy the time-invariant property within two adjacent symbol periods, that is:

[0044]

[0045]

[0046] Therefore, the received signal on the receiving antenna over two symbol periods is:

[0047] r1 = r(t) = h1s1 + h2s2 + n1;

[0048]

[0049] Where n1 and n2 represent received noise and signal interference. The decoding end performs combined reception according to the following criteria:

[0050]

[0051]

[0052] Substituting the received signals r1 and r2, we get:

[0053]

[0054]

[0055] Finally, the signals s1 and s2 can be estimated using the ML detector.

[0056] In addition to the typical Alamouti block code, the codebook of a typical two-antenna OSTBC code is shown in Table 1.

[0057] Table 1

[0058]

[0059] New Space-Time Block Code (NSTBC)

[0060] In recent years, with the deepening of research on backscatter communication, some researchers have proposed the concept of backscatter diversity and designed corresponding space-time block codes. These codes reduce the complexity of hardware implementation and the probability of detection errors by optimizing the codebook of traditional Alamouti codes.

[0061] Taking two-antenna transmit diversity as an example, where the codeword matrix S has a dimension of 2×2, its encoding structure is as follows:

[0062]

[0063] Based on the above coding structure, assuming that in the current symbol period, the symbol transmitted on antenna 1 is denoted as s1, and the symbol transmitted on antenna 2 is denoted as s2... However, in the next symbol period, the symbol transmitted on antenna 1 is s2, while the symbol transmitted on antenna 2 is... According to the OSTBC codeword definition, S2 belongs to the OSTBC codeword category, and therefore can achieve full diversity gain and full-rate transmission. The following analysis examines the differences between this type of codeword and the traditional Alamouti code in backscatter communication.

[0064] Assuming transmission is based on BPSK modulation symbols, according to the backscatter communication mapping principle, the mapping rule between symbols 0 and 1 and the reflection coefficient is as follows:

[0065]

[0066] Symbols 0 and 1 are characterized by controlling two load impedances with reversed phases. Therefore, Table 4 shows the encoding table for diversity coding codeword S2 when transmitting different symbols simultaneously on both antennas. For comparison, Tables 2 and 3 also provide encoding tables for Alamouti codewords and extended Alamouti codewords when transmitting different symbols simultaneously on both antennas. The extended Alamouti codeword is as follows:

[0074] As shown in Table 2, based on the codebook designed using NSTBC, antenna 1 only requires two coefficients |Γ|e jθ and |Γ|e j (θ+π) Antenna 2 also only requires two coefficients |Γ|e -jθ and |Γ|e -j(θ+π)This means that only two load impedances are needed for each antenna. According to Table 3-4, based on the Alamouti codeword and the extended Alamouti codeword, antenna 1 and antenna 2 both require four coefficients |Γ|e. jθ ,|Γ|e j(θ+π) ,|Γ|e -jθ ,|Γ|e -j(θ+π) That is, each antenna requires four different load impedances.

[0075] Differential Space-Time Block Code (DSTBC)

[0076] For traditional OSTBC and NSTBC, the decoding end uses a coherent detection decoding scheme, thus requiring the transmitting antenna to transmit accurate Channel State Information (CSI) from the receiving antenna. However, in high-speed mobile scenarios, scenarios with rapidly changing channel fading conditions, or scenarios where transmitting pilot signals is difficult due to power and cost limitations in backscatter communication, the decoding end struggles to accurately estimate the channel, or the cost of accurate channel estimation is very high. In these situations, the decoding end cannot obtain the necessary CSI information. Differential space-time block coding is a scheme where neither the encoder nor the decoder needs to know the CSI information, the encoding and decoding are simple, and diversity gain can be achieved. The following explanation uses two-antenna transmission and single-antenna reception as examples.

[0077] At the transmitting encoding end, assuming the following symbols are transmitted according to the Alamouti scheme at the encoding ends of symbol period 1 and symbol period 2:

[0078]

[0079] The two transmitted signals s1 and s2 do not carry any information; they serve only as reference signals. The encoding end then uses differential coding for transmission. Assume that in 2t-1 symbol periods, the symbols transmitted from the first and second antennas are s1 and s2, respectively. 2t-1 and s 2t Then, in 2t symbol periods, the symbols transmitted from the first antenna and the second antenna are respectively and In 2t+1 symbol cycles, a set of 2m bits arrives at the encoding end and generates the corresponding coefficient vector. The encoder uses the symbol vector sent in the previous two symbol periods and the current coefficient vector. Calculate the symbols transmitted in the current 2t+1 symbol period:

[0080]

[0081] Simultaneously, based on the Alamouti codebook, the transmitted symbols on the two antennas in the 2t+2th symbol period are calculated as follows: and Wherein, coefficient vector satisfy:

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] The symbols are repeatedly encoded and sent according to the above encoding rules.

[0085] At the receiving and decoding end, assuming signal r 2t-1 ,r 2t ,r 2t+1 ,r 2t+2 Received, the channel matrix is ​​defined as follows:

[0086]

[0087] The noise signal is:

[0088]

[0089] The received signal can then be represented as:

[0090]

[0091]

[0092] Therefore, we have:

[0093]

[0094] After merging, we get:

[0095]

[0096] For simplicity, the definition is as follows:

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Therefore, we can conclude that:

[0100]

[0101] Based on the previous mathematical derivation, we have:

[0102]

[0103] Therefore:

[0104]

[0105] in,

[0106] The signals at the four time points are processed as follows:

[0107]

[0108] Expanding, we get:

[0109]

[0110] For simplicity, the definition is as follows:

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] We can obtain:

[0114]

[0115] Combining the previous mathematical derivations, we have:

[0116]

[0117] Due to the set of coefficient vectors All coefficient vectors in the vector are of equal length and There is a one-to-one correspondence between the input symbol information and the receiver selects the decision and statistical signal vector. The coefficient vector closest to the Euclidean distance

[0118] Calculated Then, it is reverse-mapped back to the original symbol to recover the original bit.

[0119] Traditional OSTBC-type codebooks, including Alamouti, can achieve full diversity gain and full data rate, but they are designed for traditional active RF communication and do not take into account the modulation characteristics and implementation complexity of passive terminals such as backscatter communication. At the same time, the decoder is required to know the channel state information (CSI) between all transmitting and receiving antennas.

[0120] The proposed NSTBC codebook for backscatter communication reduces hardware implementation complexity and detection error probability by optimizing the traditional Alamouti codebook. However, this approach requires the decoder to know the CSI information between all transmit and receive antennas. While traditional Alamouti-based differential space-time block codes do not require knowledge of the CSI information between all transmit and receive antennas, they do not consider the modulation characteristics and implementation complexity of passive terminals such as backscatter communication.

[0121] The coding method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0122] See Figure 2 This application provides an encoding method, wherein the executing entity of the method is an encoding end, which can be a terminal device or a network-side device, and the method includes:

[0123] Step 201: The encoder uses the DSTBC encoding method and the NSTBC codebook to encode the transmitted symbol for the current symbol period;

[0124] Step 202: The encoder determines the transmission symbol for the next symbol period based on the transmitted symbol of the current symbol period obtained from the encoding and the NSTBC codebook.

[0125] In this embodiment, the DSTBC encoding method and NSTBC codebook are used to calculate the transmitted symbol for the current symbol period, while the low-complexity NSTBC codebook is used to calculate the transmitted symbol for the next symbol period. Based on the DSTBC design, neither the encoder nor the decoder needs to know the CSI, meaning no pilot signal needs to be transmitted on each transmit antenna, reducing system overhead. Simultaneously, the NSTBC codebook, while maintaining diversity gain, reduces the number of load impedance types on each antenna, lowering system implementation complexity and effectively reducing the probability of detection errors.

[0126] The encoding method provided in this application is a novel encoding method that combines the DSTBC encoding method with the NSTBC codebook and extracts the advantages of both. This novel encoding method can also be called differential NSTBC encoding method.

[0127] In some specific implementations, differential NSTBC coding is used for two-antenna transmit diversity, that is, the differential NSTBC coding method in the embodiments of this application can be applied to two-antenna transmit diversity scenarios.

[0128] In some specific implementations, the modulation method used at the encoding end may include: Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), Amplitude Phase Shift Keying (APSK), and Multiple Phase Shift Keying (MPSK).

[0129] In some specific implementations, the NSTBC codebook is used for space-time block codes, or the NSTBC codebook is used for polarization-time block codes, meaning that the two transmitting antennas can be spatially isolated or polarization-directed isolated.

[0130] The polarization modes include one or more of the following:

[0131] Horizontal polarization, vertical polarization, left-handed elliptical polarization, right-handed elliptical polarization, left-handed circular polarization, and right-handed circular polarization.

[0132] In a specific implementation, the codebook structure of the NSTBC codebook satisfies:

[0133]

[0134] Among them, s 2t+1 and The transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas are encoded by the encoding end in the 2t+1 symbol period (it should be noted that the transmitted symbols can also be called constellation symbols, constellation points, etc., and this application embodiment does not specifically limit the name), s 2t+2 and The symbols transmitted on the two transmit antennas are obtained by the encoding end in the (2t+2)th symbol period; where the symbols are... For the symbol s 2t+2 conjugate, symbol For the symbol s 2t+1 The negative conjugate of ; the 2t+1th symbol period is the current symbol period, and the 2t+2nd symbol period is the next symbol period of the current symbol period.

[0135] In a specific implementation, the encoder uses DSTBC encoding and an NSTBC codebook to encode the transmitted symbols for the current symbol period, including:

[0136] (1) The encoding end determines the encoding coefficient vector of the current symbol period;

[0137] (2) The encoding end determines the transmitted symbol after encoding in the current symbol period based on the encoding coefficient vector of the current symbol period.

[0138] Specifically, the encoding end of (1) above determines the encoding coefficient vector for the current symbol period, including:

[0139] (1.1) The encoding end follows the formula:

[0140]

[0141]

[0142] Determine the coding coefficient vector of the encoder in the (2t+1)th symbol period.

[0143] Among them, s 2t+1 and For the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas obtained by the encoding end in the 2t+1 symbol period, s 2t-1 and For the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas obtained by the encoding end in the 2t-1 symbol period, s 2t and The transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas are obtained by encoding at the encoding end in the 2t-th symbol period.

[0144] In this embodiment, the encoding end calculates the encoding coefficient vector of the current symbol period using a direct calculation method.

[0145] Specifically, the encoding end of (1) above determines the encoding coefficient vector for the current symbol period, including:

[0146] (1.2) The encoding end determines the encoding coefficient vector in the 2t+1 symbol period based on the preset mapping table of the original bits or original symbols and the encoding coefficient vector.

[0147] The preset mapping table contains the original bits or original symbols and The mapping relationship between them after the initial reference symbol is determined.

[0148] The aforementioned raw bits or raw symbols refer to the initial data bits or initial symbols to be encoded, and the aforementioned initial reference symbols refer to the reference symbols on the transmit antenna in the initial symbol period, that is, in the first symbol period.

[0149] In this embodiment of the application, the encoding end determines the mapping table directly.

[0150] Specifically, the encoding end (2) above determines the transmitted symbol after encoding in the current symbol period based on the encoding coefficient vector of the current symbol period, including:

[0151] (2.1) The encoding end follows the formula:

[0152]

[0153] Determine the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas obtained by the encoding end in the 2t+1 symbol period;

[0154] in, s is the coding coefficient vector for the (2t+1)th symbol period determined by the encoder. 2t-1 and For the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas obtained by the encoding end in the 2t-1 symbol period, s 2t and The transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas are obtained by encoding at the encoding end in the 2t-th symbol period.

[0155] In this embodiment of the application, the encoder calculates the transmitted symbol of the current symbol period based on the encoding coefficient vector of the current symbol period and the transmitted symbols of the previous two symbol periods.

[0156] For example: Suppose that in the 2t-1 symbol period, the symbols transmitted from the first antenna and the second antenna are s respectively. 2t-1 and Then, in the 2t-th symbol period, the symbols transmitted from the first antenna and the second antenna are s and s, respectively. 2t and That is, the signals transmitted by the transmitting end on the two antennas in the 2t-1 and 2t symbol periods satisfy:

[0157]

[0158] In the 2t+1th symbol period, a set of 2m bits arrives at the encoding end and is processed according to the mapping relationship. Generate the corresponding coefficient vector (Taking a lookup of a preset mapping table as an example), the encoding end uses the symbol vector sent in the previous two symbol periods and the current coefficient vector. Calculate the symbol transmitted at the current moment:

[0159]

[0160] And in the 2t+2 symbol period, the symbols transmitted on both antennas are Wherein, coefficient vector It satisfies the following relationship with the current input symbol:

[0161]

[0162]

[0163] In a specific implementation, the method further includes:

[0164] The encoding end determines the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas obtained by encoding the first symbol period as follows: And the transmitted symbols obtained by the encoding end on the two transmit antennas in the second symbol period are

[0165] in, and The following NSTBC codebook is satisfied:

[0166]

[0167] The initial reference symbol is determined.

[0168] The above describes the process by which the encoding end encodes the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas in the 2t+1 symbol period. By repeating the above process, the differential NSTBC encoding and transmission of all information bits to be transmitted can be completed.

[0169] It should be noted that, based on the above process, it can be seen that in differential NSTBC encoding, two symbols can be encoded in one symbol period. The transmitted symbols of the two symbol periods only need to be encoded once (because the transmitted symbol of the next symbol period can be determined based on the transmitted symbol of the current symbol period and the NSTBC codebook). The next symbol period is a redundancy of the previous symbol period. Therefore, in practical applications, a delay can be set up, and the differential NSTBC encoding method can be used to perform encoding processing from the 2t+1 symbol period. Then, the delay time of one symbol period is recorded by the delay timer, and the differential NSTBC encoding method can be used to perform encoding processing from the 2t+3 symbol period, because the transmitted symbols of the 2t+1 symbol period and the 2t+2 symbol period can be determined in one encoding process.

[0170] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described below with reference to specific implementation methods:

[0171] This implementation uses BPSK as an example to illustrate the differential NSTBC coding process. Assuming BPSK modulation is used, the set of constellation points is... Among the constellation point set To ensure normalization of transmit power, the set of coding coefficient vectors is... Let the two initial reference modulation signals be The two input information bits at the encoding input are c1 and c2. The first bit c1 maps to symbol s3, and the second bit c2 maps to symbol s4. Symbols s3 and s4 are both BPSK constellation points. The mapping relationship is as follows:

[0172]

[0173]

[0174] According to the definition of the coding coefficient vector, we have:

[0175]

[0176]

[0177] Based on the different values ​​of input bits c1 and c2, we can obtain the following: The mapping table is as follows:

[0178] (0,0) (1,0) (1,0) (0,-1) (0,1) (0,1) (1,1) (-1,0)

[0179] Assume that the transmitted symbols on both antennas are transmitted in the 2t-1 symbol period:

[0180]

[0181] According to the NSTBC coding rules, the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas in the 2t-th symbol period are:

[0182]

[0183] Assuming that in the (2t+1)th symbol period, the input bits arriving at the encoder are 10, according to the mapping rule between input bits and the coding coefficient vector, we have:

[0184]

[0185] Therefore, there is The encoder uses the symbol vector sent in the previous two symbol periods and the current coding coefficient vector. Calculate the symbol transmitted at the current moment:

[0186]

[0187] In the 2t+2 symbol period, according to the NSTBC coding rules, the transmitted symbols on the two transmit antennas are:

[0188]

[0189] Repeat the above process to complete the differential NSTBC transmission.
