Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of signal processing technology for wireless communication receivers, specifically relating to a two-stage signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine detection, which is applicable to system reliability detection scenarios of OTFS under dual-selective channel conditions. Background Technology

[0002] As next-generation wireless communication systems evolve towards higher frequency bands, greater mobility, and wider coverage, channels exhibit both significant time-varying characteristics and frequency selectivity. Traditional receiver methods designed for low Doppler conditions are prone to performance degradation in highly dual-selective scenarios. OTFS, by mapping information symbols to the delay-Doppler domain, can more naturally characterize dual-selective channels and has therefore become an important candidate waveform for high-mobility communication scenarios.

[0003] In OTFS systems, although the time-delay-Doppler domain equivalent channel typically exhibits structural local coupling characteristics, mutual interference still occurs between different symbol positions through the equivalent channel matrix. Therefore, reliable detection remains a critical issue in receiver design. Existing methods employ two main approaches: one uses linear equalization or approximate Gaussian inference for globally low-complexity detection, while the other employs message passing, iterative interference cancellation, or approximate Bayesian inference to improve detection performance.

[0004] However, relying solely on low-complexity initial detection globally often fails to yield sufficiently accurate soft outputs at locations with low reliability and strong coupling. Conversely, performing a high-complexity near-optimal search directly on the entire delay-Doppler domain grid leads to a rapid increase in overall complexity. Therefore, a detection method is needed that can maintain the advantage of low complexity in initial global detection while also enabling enhanced fine detection at a few critical locations. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art and provide a two-stage signal detection method for OTFS based on global initial detection and local list fine detection. Through the two-stage processing framework, selective fine detection is performed only on locations with low reliability and significant local coupling, which can improve the detection reliability of key locations while controlling complexity.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Firstly, this invention provides a two-stage OTFS signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine detection, including the following steps:

[0023] As a preferred technical solution, in step (5), the local metric evaluation includes one or a combination of the following: evaluation based on Euclidean distance, evaluation based on likelihood function, evaluation based on maximum logarithmic approximation, evaluation based on weighted cost function, or joint evaluation that integrates prior information outside the block and observation information inside the block.

[0024] As a preferred technical solution, in step (6), the soft information fusion and update includes one of the following: linear weighted fusion, convex combination fusion, selective replacement based on confidence comparison, updating only the position to be re-examined and retaining the first stage output for the remaining positions.

[0025] As a preferred technical solution, in step (6), the final detection output is the symbol-level detection result, bit-level soft output or bit-level log-likelihood ratio corresponding to each delay-Doppler position, and is used for subsequent channel decoding processing.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] This embodiment provides a two-stage OTFS signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine detection, including the following steps:

[0042] S1, Receive signal according to OTFS and the corresponding time-delay-Doppler domain equivalent channel matrix The first stage of global initial detection is performed to obtain the initial detection information corresponding to each time delay-Doppler position, including the symbol-level initial metric corresponding to each DD domain position. This also includes the initial log-likelihood ratio of each bit within each position. .

[0043] Specifically, the time-delay-Doppler domain receiver matrix obtained after OTFS demodulation at the receiver is vectorized to obtain the received signal. And establish the input-output relationship at the receiving end. .in Send symbol vectors for the DD domain (Delay-Doppler Domain). For the additive noise vector in the DD domain to satisfy .

[0044] Based on global observation information across the entire delay-Doppler domain receive grid, global soft detection is performed at each delay-Doppler location to obtain initial detection information for each location. This initial detection information includes, but is not limited to, symbol-level initial metrics corresponding to each DD domain location. The initial log-likelihood ratio of each bit within each position .

[0045] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the first-stage global initial detection can employ a detection method based on Gaussian approximation; in other embodiments, other global soft detection methods capable of outputting initial soft information can also be employed, including but not limited to minimum mean square error detection, sum-product algorithm detection, projection gradient detection, and Bayesian Gaussian approximation detection.

[0046] S2. Determine the set of locations to be re-detected based on the initial soft information output from the first stage. .

[0047] Specifically, for each time-delay-Doppler position, the initial log-likelihood ratio Calculate the reliability at each location. And determine the set of locations to be re-inspected based on reliability. When the reliability of a certain location is lower than the preset re-detection threshold. When this happens, the location will be included in the set of locations to be re-inspected. .

[0048] Further, based on the initial soft information output from the first stage, the reliability of each location is calculated. Specifically:

[0049] First, locations with low reliability after the initial global check are selected from the entire DD domain grid, and subsequent local list fine-checks are only performed on these locations. Since each symbol location in high-order modulation typically corresponds to multiple bits, the initial soft information, including symbol-level initial metrics, is used. Or the initial log-likelihood ratio .definition ,in The constellation symbol with the largest initial symbolic metric. The constellation symbol with the second largest initial metric at the symbol level; or defined .

[0050] S3. Divide the data into local blocks based on the coupling relationship between the locations to be re-inspected.

[0051] Specifically, the preferred method is based on the coupling weights between different positions in the time-delay-Doppler domain equivalent channel matrix. Construct an association graph and a set of locations to be re-examined. Perform connected component partitioning to form one or more local detection blocks. .

[0052] Furthermore, the coupling relationship is constructed based on the coupling weights in the time-delay-Doppler domain equivalent channel matrix. The local blocks are formed by connected component partitioning, threshold clustering, greedy expansion, or restricted block growth, and the size of each local detection block is constrained by a preset maximum block size.

[0053] Furthermore, when the size of a certain connected component exceeds the preset maximum block size... The connected component can be further divided using a greedy expansion rule or a restricted block growth rule to control the computational complexity of subsequent local list refinement.

[0054] S4. For each local detection block Construct local observation corrections .

[0055] Specifically, first determine the local detection block. The relevant observation set and the set of associated locations outside the block are then used for soft sign estimation of the locations outside the block. Alternatively, an out-of-block interference cancellation term can be constructed from the hard decision result, and this out-of-block interference cancellation term can be subtracted from the received observations to obtain the local fine-detection observations corresponding to that local detection block. .

[0056] Furthermore, the local correction observation Constructed in any one or more of the following ways:

[0057] Soft sign estimation at off-block locations is used to cancel off-block soft interference;

[0058] Hard interference outside the block is canceled by using the hard decision result of the location outside the block;

[0059] S5. Based on the initial detection information obtained from the first stage global initial detection, and around the benchmark decision, a local candidate list is generated through controlled flipping. Local measurement evaluation is performed on each candidate to obtain local list fine-check soft information.

[0060] Specifically, the benchmark decision is determined based on the initial detection information obtained in step (1), specifically including any of the following methods: based on the symbol-level initial metric. Select the candidate symbol with the best metric as the benchmark symbol decision; based on the initial log-likelihood ratio. Hard decision is performed on each bit to obtain a reference bit vector; constellation mapping is performed based on the reference bit vector to obtain a reference symbol vector; or, the hard decision result directly given by the first-stage global initial detection is used as the reference decision.

[0061] Furthermore, in one implementation, the local candidate list can be generated using a bit-flipping rule based on the Hamming weight increment principle; in other implementations, a hybrid candidate generation rule based on soft weight sorting, integer factorization, reliability sorting, sign flipping, or a combination of the foregoing methods can also be used.

[0062] Furthermore, for each candidate in the local candidate list, further refinement can be performed based on local detailed observations. Calculate the local Euclidean distance, likelihood function value, maximum logarithmic approximation measure, or other local cost function, and obtain local optimal candidate or local list refinement soft information based on these. .

[0063] Furthermore, the benchmark decision includes one of the following: the hard decision result of the first stage output, the optimal symbol candidate of the first stage output, the benchmark bit vector derived from the initial soft information of the first stage, and the benchmark symbol vector derived from the initial soft information of the first stage.

[0064] S6. Generate local soft output based on the local fine inspection results, and merge and update it with the initial soft information of the first stage to obtain the final detection output.

[0065] Specifically, it is preferable to update the soft information only at the locations to be re-detected, while directly retaining the first-stage output for locations not included in the set of locations to be re-detected; for the locations to be re-detected, the initial soft information of the first stage can be fused using a linear weighted or convex combination method. Soft output with local list fine-tuning The final detection output is obtained. Preferably, the fusion process can be represented as follows: ,in, This is the fusion coefficient.

[0066] In this embodiment, through the processing flow of global initial detection, selection of locations to be re-detected, coupling block, local list fine detection, and soft information fusion update, controlled candidate search is performed only on locations with low reliability and significant local coupling. Therefore, the detection accuracy of key locations can be improved while keeping the overall complexity controllable.

[0067] Example 2

[0068] This embodiment 2 provides a performance example of a two-stage OTFS signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine detection, illustrating the application effect of the method of the present invention under BPSK modulation conditions. Consider an coded OTFS system, wherein the transmitting end adopts a base-based... Figure 2 The 5G LDPC encoding has a code length of n=108, an information length of k=54, a code rate of R=1 / 2, and uses BPSK modulation. Since each modulation symbol carries one coded bit, one frame of OTFS transmission corresponds to MN=108 delay-Doppler domain symbol positions. Preferably, the number of Doppler positions is N=6, and the number of delay positions is M=18. The maximum delay index is set to 3, and the maximum Doppler index is set to 5.

[0069] In this embodiment, the first stage employs a global initial detection method based on Gaussian approximation to output initial soft information to the entire time-delay-Doppler domain receiving grid. The second stage employs a local list refinement method based on the Hamming weight increment principle, that is, around the benchmark decision output in the first stage, a candidate list is generated sequentially in ascending order of the number of flipped symbols, and local metrics are evaluated on each candidate. Preferably, the maximum allowable block size for the local detection block is S. max =27, the maximum flip order is taken as t. max =4, the fusion coefficient is taken as 4. 0.4.

[0070] Furthermore, to illustrate the threshold for re-examination Constructing thresholds with graphs Impact on the complexity of the second-stage local list refinement Figure 2 The average number of candidates per frame under different parameter combinations is given. The result varies with signal-to-noise ratio. (From...) Figure 2 It can be seen that, in a fixed When, increase It will significantly reduce The reason is that, With the increase in size, the edge conditions in the coupling graph become more stringent, and weaker coupling relationships between locations to be re-detected are no longer preserved. This results in smaller and more dispersed local detection blocks, ultimately reducing the number of candidate enumerations in each local block and lowering the average total number of candidates per frame. Furthermore, under a fixed... When, increase It will significantly increase This is because After the size is increased, more locations are included in the set to be re-examined. This increases the number of locations to be re-examined in the second stage, further increasing the size of the local block and the total number of candidate enumerations. Therefore, Figure 2 This demonstrates how setting a reasonable threshold for re-examination can help. Constructing thresholds with graphs This invention can effectively control the candidate size of the second-stage local list refinement, thereby achieving a trade-off between detection performance and computational complexity. Furthermore, by... Figure 3 It can be seen that, under the different path count conditions examined, the proposed two-stage detection method consistently outperforms the baseline detector that only uses global initial detection, achieving a gain of approximately 2 dB under these parameter configurations and selections. This indicates that, based on the soft information obtained from the first-stage global initial detection, further local list-based fine-tuning of low-reliability locations can effectively improve the reliability of soft information at critical locations, thereby improving subsequent decoding performance.

[0071] Example 3

[0072] This embodiment 3 provides a performance example of a two-stage OTFS signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine detection, illustrating the application effect of the method of the present invention under QPSK modulation conditions. Consider a coded OTFS system where the transmitting end uses a linear block code with a code length of n=512 and an information length of k=256, and a code rate of R=1 / 2. Since each modulation symbol in QPSK modulation carries 2 coded bits, one frame of OTFS transmission corresponds to MN=256 time-delay-Doppler domain symbol positions. Preferably, the number of Doppler positions is N=16, and the number of time-delay positions is M=16. The maximum time-delay index is set to 3, and the maximum Doppler index is set to 5.

[0073] In this embodiment, the first stage employs a global initial detection method based on Gaussian approximation to output initial soft information to the entire delay-Doppler domain receiving grid. The second stage employs a local list refinement method based on the Hamming weight increment principle, that is, around the benchmark decision output in the first stage, a candidate list is generated sequentially in ascending order of the number of flipped bits, and local metric evaluation is performed on each candidate. Preferably, the maximum allowable block size for the local detection block is S. max =8, the maximum bit flip order is t. b =6, the fusion coefficient is taken as 6. 0.4.

[0074] Furthermore, under the above parameter conditions, the two-stage detection method used in this embodiment can be compared with the global initial detection method that only uses the first stage based on Gaussian approximation. The results are as follows: Figure 4 This indicates that by reasonably setting the threshold for re-examination... Constructing thresholds with graphs This invention can effectively control the candidate size of the second-stage local list refinement, thereby achieving a trade-off between detection performance and computational complexity. Furthermore, by... Figure 5 It can be seen that, under different path number conditions, the proposed two-stage detection method is always superior to the baseline detector that only uses global initial detection, and achieves more gain under this parameter configuration and selection.

[0075] Example 4

[0076] This embodiment 4 provides a performance example of a two-stage OTFS signal detection method based on global initial detection and local list fine-tuning, illustrating the application effect of the method of the present invention under QPSK modulation conditions when using global initial detection based on Gaussian approximation and local list fine-tuning based on soft weight principle flipping. Consider a coded OTFS system where the transmitting end uses a linear block code with a code length of n=512 and an information length of k=256, and a code rate of R=1 / 2. Since each modulation symbol in QPSK modulation carries 2 coded bits, one frame of OTFS transmission corresponds to MN=256 time-delay-Doppler domain symbol positions. Preferably, the number of Doppler positions is N=16 and the number of time-delay positions is M=16. The maximum time-delay index is set to 3, and the maximum Doppler index is set to 5.

[0077] In this embodiment, the first stage also employs a global initial detection method based on Gaussian approximation to output initial soft information to the entire delay-Doppler domain receiving grid. Unlike Embodiment 3, the second stage employs a local list refinement method based on the soft weight principle. Specifically, based on the initial soft information output in the first stage, the reliability of each bit or symbol in the local detection block is sorted, and low-reliability positions are preferentially flipped, thereby forming a candidate list generated according to the soft weight principle. Local metric evaluation is then performed on each candidate. Preferably, the maximum allowable block size for the local detection block is S. max =8, the maximum bit flip order is t. b =6, the fusion coefficient is taken as 6. 0.4.

[0078] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
