Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an adaptive iterative feedback underwater acoustic channel delay Doppler domain equalization method based on maximum ratio combining. Background Technology

[0002] Underwater acoustic communication is a key technology for realizing marine information exchange. Improving the transmission rate and stability of underwater moving units in highly mobile scenarios is one of the main challenges currently faced. Orthogonal Time-Frequency Space (OTFS) communication technology is considered an effective method to solve the problem of high-reliability communication in high-speed mobile scenarios. OTFS relies on two-dimensional orthogonal transformation, where each time-delay Doppler domain symbol can undergo a complete time-frequency domain channel, resulting in time-frequency diversity gain and robustness to external sudden interference, effectively enhancing communication reliability.

[0003] OTFS detection has attracted much research attention in the field of underwater communication, leading to numerous proposed solutions, such as linear minimum mean square error equalization, deep learning detectors based on convolutional neural networks, and message-passing nonlinear detection methods. However, nonlinear detectors often require higher complexity to achieve better performance. Notably, detection based on Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC) achieves a good trade-off between design complexity and performance. During OTFS modulation, for any information symbol, the received components in all delay-Doppler domain diversity branches can be separated and coherently combined. The basic principle of the MRC detector is to first group the delay-Doppler domain grid symbols into vectors according to their delay indices, then extract the received multipath components of the transmitted symbols in the delay-Doppler grid, perform maximum ratio combining on the extracted components, and combine this with an iterative targeted receiver to achieve symbol detection with linear complexity.

[0004] Unlike radio communication, underwater acoustic multicarrier communication (MCC) is a broadband communication method. The severe Doppler effect in the underwater acoustic channel leads to a double spread in the delay-Doppler domain, thus giving the channel matrix in the delay-Doppler domain the characteristics of a full matrix. In the delay-Doppler, the received component of the transmitted symbol comes not only from the multipath components of the real channel but also from the delay components adjacent to the delay branches of the real channel. This interference is related to the Doppler factor; as the Doppler factor increases, the received multipath components of the transmitted symbol increase, thereby increasing the complexity of the MRC scheme. Summary of the Invention

[0021] When the absolute value of the difference is less than the threshold, the current inter-branch interference depth D is the optimal inter-branch interference depth D, and the total number of delay branches to be merged Q is obtained based on D.

[0022] When the absolute value of the difference is greater than or equal to the threshold, repeat step 7 until the absolute value of the difference is less than the threshold, and obtain the optimal inter-branch interference depth D. Based on D, obtain the total number of delay branches to be merged Q.

[0023] Step 8: Convert the submatrix K of the time-delay Doppler domain equivalent channel. m,q In the optimal time delay inter-branch interference depth D input adaptive iterative feedback equalizer, the output mapping symbol of the adaptive iterative feedback equalizer is:

[0024] Step 9, for c m Hard decision yields an estimate of the emitted symbol vector;

[0025] Step 10: Substitute the estimated value of the emitted symbol vector into step 8, and repeat steps 8 and 9 until the maximum number of iterations is reached to obtain the estimated value of the optimal emitted symbol vector.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0027] This invention proposes a low-complexity linear equalizer suitable for underwater OTFS modulation. By adaptively adjusting the interference depth between delay branches, the total number of delay branches in the maximum ratio combining process is determined, avoiding the high computational complexity caused by excessive combining terms in equalizers based on maximum ratio combining. Simultaneously, interference between delay branches is considered during the equalization process, further improving the reliability of underwater acoustic communication. In summary, the equalizer achieves optimal detection performance without increasing its complexity.

This achievement is of great significance to the development of underwater mobile communication, enabling more efficient and stable communication. Attached Figure Description
