Reciprocity Calibration for Base Station Antenna in Massive MIMO Time Division Duplex Systems
-
摘要: 对于采用大规模MIMO技术的时分双工系统,基站天线的互易误差会破坏上下行基带信道互易特性,大幅降低系统下行传输性能。考虑到大规模MIMO技术所带来的基站天线间的耦合效应,该文设计了基于总体最小二乘估计的基站天线互易校准算法,以实现对基站的天线互易误差的补偿。该算法以增加计算复杂度为代价,以及通过增加信道测量样本,克服了上下行信道估计误差对现有天线互易误差校准算法的影响。同时,该文通过瑞利商迭代求解降低了该算法的复杂度。若忽略用户天线互易误差,计算机仿真结果表明,该算法相对于现有的基站天线互易误差校正算法,具有1.8 dB左右的性能增益。若考虑用户天线互易误差,该算法相对于已有的算法,具有随信道估计误差方差减小而增大的增益。Abstract: The downlink transmission performance of the massive MIMO Time Division Duplex (TDD) system is bottlenecked by the channel reciprocity errors called antenna reciprocity errors. Antenna reciprocity errors are caused by the mismatch and mutual coupling between antennas. In order to compensate antenna reciprocity errors of the base station, a reciprocity calibration algorithm is proposed in this paper, which can reduce the impact of channel estimate errors by using total least square estimation and increasing channel measurement samples. Rayleigh quotient iteration is also used to reduce the complexity of the reciprocity calibration algorithm in this paper. Simulation results reveal that the algorithm proposed in this paper can achieve 1.8 dB performance gain with respect to the traditional one proposed in references when the antenna reciprocity errors of user equipments are ignored. When the antenna reciprocity errors of user equipments are considered,the performance of the proposed algorithm increases with the decreasing variance of the channel estimation errors.
