Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    The present invention relates to a time domain pilot method of a single-carrier multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system and a synchronization method corresponding thereto, belonging to the technical field of wireless communication system. 
       BACKGROUND 
       [0002]    Traditional MIMO systems are mostly combined with the multi-carrier orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology. However, the OFDM has the problem of higher peak-to-average ratio and sensitivity to frequency offset and phase noise. In contrary, the single carrier (SC) technology lowers the peak-to-average ratio and the sensitivity to frequency offset and phase noise, therefore, the MIMO system combined with SC also attracts extensive attention. In the single-carrier MIMO system, though not so sensitive as the OFDM system, the influence of sampling frequency offset and phase noise on the performance of a system is still non-ignorable. A common solution is to insert pilot frequencies into data for frequency offset estimation and phase tracking. 
         [0003]    The existing pilot design solutions are divided into two types. The first type is time domain pilot, which means that known time domain sequences are inserted into data for frequency offset estimation and phase correction. In a typical time domain pilot design solution of a single-carrier system, a unique word (UW) is inserted into data, and the UW is utilized for synchronization and also for substituting a cyclic prefix (CP) to resist against the multipath effect. However, the MIMO system often needs a cyclic shift operation, which means that the directly inserted UW cannot replace the CP to resist against multipath, and thus may also cause interference between symbols. Therefore, the traditional UW time domain pilot design solution is not suitable for the single-carrier MIMO system. In another commonly used single-carrier pilot solution, pilot design is conducted in a frequency domain, which however generally requires the addition of modules for FFT and IFFT operations in a transmitting terminal. Therefore, compared with time domain pilot, the pilot of frequency domain may increase the complexity of the transmitting terminal of a system. In addition, the time domain pilot design of a single-carrier MIMO system also has the problem of mutual interference of pilot frequencies between different antennas. 
       BRIEF DESCRIPTION 
       [0004]    Object of the invention: To overcome the shortcomings existing in the prior art, the present invention proposes a time domain pilot method suitable for a single-carrier MIMO system, including pilot location design and a training sequence design, and also provides a synchronization method that can be adopted based on the time domain pilot design for frequency offset estimation and phase tracking. 
         [0005]    Technical solution: To eliminate the correlation of signals between different antennas and eliminate undesired beam forming effects, a cyclic shift operation (CSD) often needs to be performed on signals of different antennas in the MIMO system. In addition, to resist against the multipath and avoid interference between symbols, a CP needs to be inserted at the transmitting terminal. In the present invention, after constellation point mapping, a pilot frequency needs to be inserted before the CSD operation. 
         [0006]    The present invention provides a time domain pilot method of a single-carrier MIMO system, comprising the following steps: 
         [0007]    (1) generating training sequences (TS) to be inserted; 
         [0008]    (2) inserting the TS sequences into data blocks at intervals of an identical number of data symbols, wherein the TS sequences inserted into each data block are no less than one; and 
         [0009]    (3) after CSD operation and space mapping on the data blocks into which the TS sequences are inserted, inserting CPs before the transformed data blocks, wherein the last few digits of the CP are the TS sequences inserted into the data block. 
         [0010]    The TS sequences inserted into each data block in a same data stream are identical, while the TS sequences inserted into different data streams are different. 
         [0011]    The TS sequence adopts a ZCZ sequence. Due to its favorable autocorrelation and cross-correlation properties, the ZCZ sequence can be adopted to reduce the influence of mutual interference between pilot frequencies of different antennas. 
         [0012]    The present invention also provides a transmitting device for implementing time domain pilot of a single-carrier MIMO system, comprising a time domain pilot module, a CSD module, a space mapping module and a CP inserting module, wherein the time domain pilot module is used for generating TS sequences, and uniformly inserting the TS sequences in data blocks; the CSD module is used for performing CSD operation on the data blocks in which the TS sequences are inserted; the space mapping module is used for performing space mapping on the data blocks subjected to the CSD operation; and the CP inserting module is used for inserting CPs before the data blocks subjected to the space mapping. 
         [0013]    The present invention further provides a synchronization method based on time domain pilot of a single-carrier MIMO system, in which carrier frequency offset estimation and phase tracking are conducted with data blocks as a unit, comprising the following steps:

         [0045]      FIG. 3  is a structural schematic diagram of data with pilot frequencies inserted in the present invention. In each data block of the same data stream of the present invention, namely, in each data symbol contained in each FFT operation, several identical training sequences (TSs) are uniformly inserted; the CP is inserted before each data block, the number of the TS sequences inserted into each data block is greater than or equal to 1, and the length of the inserted TS sequence is less than that of the inserted CP; the TS sequences inserted into each data block of the same data stream are identical, while the TS sequences inserted into different data streams are different; and the TS sequence adopts a ZCZ sequence. 
         [0046]    Supposing that N represents the length of FFT operation, namely, the total length of a data block containing the pilot sequence and the data symbols, N TS  represents the length of each section of separate TS sequence, N D  represents the number of data symbols spaced between every two adjacent TS sequences, M represents the number of TS sequences inserted into each separate data block, and N CP  represents the length of the cyclic prefix, then M, N TS , N, N D , and N CP  are all integers and satisfy the following relationship:

         [0049]    Step  2 : generating the TS sequence on the t th  stream, namely, the ZCZ sequence with the length of N TS : 
         [0050]    s t  [1], s t  [2], . . . , s t  [i], . . . s t  [N TS ]; 
         [0051]    Step  3 : after being subjected to a constellation mapper, inserting the ZCZ sequence s t  [1], s t  [2], . . . , s t  [i], . . . s t  [N TS ] generated in step 2 into data blocks of corresponding data streams at intervals of N D  data symbols; 
         [0052]    Step  4 : subjecting the data symbols with the time domain pilot inserted therebetween to the CSD and space mapping modules of a single-carrier MIMO transmitting system, and inserting a CP before each data block. The finally formed data structure is as shown in  FIG. 5 .
