TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a diversity transmission technology using multiple transmit antennas in radio communication systems.
BACKGROUND ART
Currently, an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) scheme is being applied as a basic transmission scheme for most mobile communication systems. The OFDMA scheme may have a high peak to average power ratio (PAPR), which may be a result of a plurality of symbols being a complex number modulating/multiplexing a plurality of subcarriers in the OFDMA scheme.
In order to overcome the above shortcoming, a single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) scheme may spread modulated symbol being a complex number using a discrete Fourier transform (DFT), and after that transmit spread symbols using a ordinary OFDMA scheme.
A transmit antenna diversity transmission scheme may enhance a performance by transmitting a symbol using multiple antennas on a transmission side. The transmit antenna diversity scheme is being widely adopted in radio communication systems using the OFDMA scheme, a code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme, and the like.

MODE FOR THE INVENTION
Reference will now be made in detail to exemplary embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to the like elements throughout. Exemplary embodiments are described below to explain the present invention by referring to the figures.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a structure of a transmission apparatus 100 to perform a cyclic shift for data in a frequency domain according to an embodiment of the present invention. The transmission apparatus 100 may include a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spreader 110, a resource mapper 120, a plurality of cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134, and a plurality of transmitters 141, 142, 143, and 144.
The DFT spreader 110 may receive a predetermined number of symbols being a complex number to perform a DFT for the received symbols being a complex number to generate frequency domain symbols. The number of symbols input into the DFT spreader 110 may be determined based on a transform size of the DFT spreader 110.
The resource mapper 120 may map the frequency domain symbols and a plurality of frequency domain streams. For example, the plurality of frequency domain streams may be allocated to different frequency bands. Also, the plurality of frequency domain streams may be allocated to a single frequency band.
The cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 may perform a cyclic shift for each of the frequency domain streams according to a cyclic shift value that is determined with respect to each of the frequency domain streams. The cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 may determine the cyclic shift value with respect to each of the frequency domain streams. For example, the cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 may determine the cyclic shift value to be different with respect to each of the frequency domain streams.
The cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 may determine the cyclic shift value based on a number of transmit antennas 151, 152, 153, and 154 of the transmission apparatus 100, and a transform size of the DFT spreader 110. For example, the cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 may determine, as the cyclic shift value, an integer fold increase of a value that is obtained by dividing the transform size of the DFT spreader 110 by the number of transmit antennas 151, 152, 153, and 154 or a number of subcarriers.
Referring to FIG. 1, the cyclic shift unit 131 may determine, as the cyclic shift value, a “zero” fold increase of the value that is obtained by dividing the transform size of the DFT spreader 110 by the number of transmit antennas 151, 152, 153, and 154, that is, “4”.

The interleaver 220 may perform interleaving for the channel coded data. The interleaver 220 may randomly rearrange a sequence of the channel coded data to thereby recover from a burst error occurring in a radio channel.
The scrambler 230 may perform an exclusive operation for the interleaved data and a scrambling sequence to generate scrambled data.
The modulator 240 may modulate the scrambled data to generate a modulated symbol. For example, the modulator 240 may modulate the scrambled data using a phase shift keying (PSK) scheme or a quadratic amplitude modulation (QAM) scheme. The modulated symbol may be input into the DFT spreader 110 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a structure of a transmitter 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The transmitter 300 may include an IDFT despreader 310 and a cyclic prefix (CP) inserter 320.
The IDFT despreader 310 may perform an IDFT for cyclic shifted frequency domain streams to generate time domain streams. The generated time domain streams may be transmission signals of a single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) scheme.
When the cyclic shift units 131, 132, 133, and 134 performs the IDFT for the cyclic shifted frequency domain streams according to a different cyclic shift value, a peak to average power ratio (PARP) of the time domain streams generated by the IDFT despreader 310 may be similar to a PARP of modulated symbols that are input into the DFT spreader 110. Specifically, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when generating the transmission signals using the SC-FDMA scheme, it is possible to maintain a low PARP of the transmission signals to be transmitted using a plurality of transmit antennas.
The CP inserter 320 may insert a CP signal into each of the time domain streams.
Here, it is assumed that a transmission of a pilot signal or a reference signal for a channel estimation, a channel estimation of a reception side, and the like is performed using a separate general scheme.
Embodiments of performing a phase shift for data, transmitted via each transmit antenna, in a frequency domain have been described above with reference to FIGS. 1 through 3. When considering a principle of a Fourier transform, a cyclic shift in the frequency domain may correspond to a phase shift in a time domain. Hereinafter, an embodiment of performing the phase shift in the time domain to maintain a low PARP of a transmission signal of an SC-FDMA scheme will be described.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a structure of a transmission apparatus 400 to perform a phase shift for data in a time domain according to an embodiment of the present invention.
A DFT spreader 410 may perform a DFT for a modulated symbol to generate frequency domain symbols. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the DFT spreader 410 may perform the DFT for the modulated symbol using the channel encoder 210, the interleaver 220, the scrambler 230, and the modulator 240 of FIG. 2.
A resource mapper 420 may map the frequency domain symbols and a plurality of frequency domain streams. For example, the plurality of frequency domain streams may be allocated to different frequency bands. Also, the plurality of frequency domain streams may be allocated to a single frequency band.
An IDFT despreader 430 may perform an IDFT for the frequency domain streams to generate time domain streams corresponding to the frequency domain streams. Each of the time domain stream may be an SC-FDMA signal that is transmitted via each of multiple transmit antennas 461, 462, 463, and 464.
Phase shift units 441, 442, 443, and 444 may perform a phase shift for each of the time domain streams according to a phase shift value that is determined with respect to each of the time domain streams. According to an embodiment of the present invention, phase shift values with respect to the time domain streams may be different from each other.
The phase shift units 441, 442, 443, and 444 may determine a phase shift value. For example, the phase shift units 441, 442, 443, and 444 may determine a phase shift value according to each of the time domain streams, based on a number of transmit antennas 461, 462, 463, and 464 of the transmission apparatus 400. For example, the phase shift units 441, 442, 443, and 444 may determine, as the phase shift value with respect to each of the time domain streams, an integer fold increase of an inverse number of the number of transmit antennas 461, 462, 463, and 464.
Referring to FIG. 4, the phase shift unit 441 may determine, as the phase shift value, a “zero” fold increase of the inverse of the number of transmit antennas 461, 462, 463, and 464, that is, “4”. The phase shift unit 442 may determine, as the phase shift value, a “one” fold increase of the inverse of “4”. The phase shift unit 443 may determine, as the phase shift value, a “two” fold increase of the inverse of “4”. The phase shift unit 444 may determine, as the phase shift value, a “three” fold increase of the inverse of “4”. It may be given by the following Equation 1:

pm(n)=e−j2πnm/M,0≦m≦M−1,0≦n≦N−1  [Equation 1]

where Pm(n) denotes an nth value of a phase shift values for an mth phase shift unit, M denotes a number of transmit antennas, and N denotes a transform size of the IDFT despreader 430. The phase shift value may be multiplied with an output signal string of the IDFT despreader 430 for each symbol to thereby generate a phase shifted output signal of each symbol-wise product.
The time domain streams transmitted via the transmit antennas 461, 462, 463, and 464 may be phase shifted according to a different phase shift value. Transmitters 451, 452, 453, and 454 may transmit the time domain streams to a reception apparatus 470 via the transmit antenna 461, 462, 463, or 464 corresponding to each of the time domain streams.
The transmitters 451, 452, 453, and 454 may insert a CP signal into each of the time domain streams, and transmit the time domain streams with the inserted CP to the reception apparatus 470.
Here, it is assumed that a transmission of a pilot signal or a reference signal for a channel estimation, a channel estimation and a synchronization of a reception side, and the like is performed using a separate general scheme.
FIG. 5 is a block diagram illustrating a structure of a reception apparatus 500 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Although a single receive antenna is shown in FIG. 5, the present invention may be applicable to a plurality of receive antennas as is.
A receiver 510 may receive, from a transmission apparatus (not shown), a plurality of time domain streams that are cyclic shifted according to different cyclic shift values. Each of the time domain streams may be transmitted via a radio channel formed from the transmission apparatus to the reception apparatus 500. The receiver 510 may remove a CP in each of the time domain streams, and perform a DFT for the time domain streams in which the CP is removed. The receiver 510 may perform a DFT for the time domain streams to generate frequency domain streams.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to transmit time domain streams using a plurality of transmit antennas. In this case, a difference between cyclic shift values of the time domain streams may be in inverse proportion to the number of transmit antennas.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver may receive time domain streams using the same number of subcarriers as a number of transmit antennas of a transmission apparatus.
A frequency domain equalizer 520 may equalize the frequency domain streams using channel information that is estimated for a channel estimation process. Specifically, the frequency domain equalizer 520 may perform an IDFT for an equalized frequency domain stream to generate a time domain symbol.
An IDFT despreader 530 may perform an inverse operation of a spread process by the DFT spreader 110 or 410. In a radio communication system adopting an OFDMA scheme instead of an SC-FDMA scheme, when passing the DFT spreader 110 or 410 and the IDFT despreader 530 as is, the present invention may be applicable as is.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a difference between cyclic shift values of time domain streams may be in proportion to a transform size of the IDFT despreader 530.
A demodulator 540 may demodulate a time domain symbol. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the demodulator may detect a de-spread signal using a symbol, being a complex number, of QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM, and the like, and may transform the detected signal based on a bit unit. In this instance, the demodulator 540 may receive a soft input and generate a soft output according to a receiver type.
A descrambler 550 may descramble the demodulated time domain symbol.
A channel decoder 560 may perform a channel decoding for the descrambled time domain symbol.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the frequency domain equalizer 520 may be constructed as follows. Modulated frequency domain symbols may be transmitted by a plurality of subcarriers via a plurality of transmit antennas of a transmission side. Therefore, a reception end may need to perform a frequency domain equalization with respect to the plurality of subcarriers. When the number of transmit antennas of the transmission apparatus is two, the number of receive antennas of the reception apparatus is one, and the transmission apparatus transmits a time domain stream using K subcarriers, a frequency domain stream after the reception apparatus performs a DFT for the time domain stream may be expressed by the following Equation 2:

Here, Yk denotes a reception value at a kth subcarrier of a frequency domain stream, Hik denotes a frequency response of a kth subcarrier of an ith transmit antenna, and Xk denotes a frequency domain signal of a transmission side. Specifically, Xk denotes a kth symbol among outputs of the DFT spreader 110 of FIG. 1 or the DFT spreader 410 of FIG. 4. Nk denotes a frequency domain noise in the kth subcarrier. It can be known that a received signal may be expressed by the above Equation 2 due to a predetermined transmission structure of the transmission apparatus. Equation 2 may also be divided into various equations as given by the following Equation 3:
