Description
PO ER CONTROL IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS
The present invention relates to power control in telecommunications networks, and, in particular, in RF mobile telephone networks and systems.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Power control is important in mobile telephone networks, for example, because it is important to obtain desirably high capacity and efficiency, particularly in CDMA systems. The variable that is controlled is called quality. Quality of the communication is controlled with reference to a quality measure such as : BER (Bit Error Rate) , FER (Frame Erasure Rate, BLER (Block Error Rate) , number of iterations of a turbo decoder, or the average reliability of decision statistics. Below, for the sake of brevity, the quality measurement will be referred to as BLER. It will, however, be readily appreciated that BER or FER, or other quality measurement could be used.
Usually an integrating controller is provided to achieve a steady state performance with zero control error. The control scheme used is cascade control, see for example Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings. The idea with cascade control is to make an inner control loop (2) much faster than an outer control loop (4) . For transmission power control (TPC) the inner loop controls another quality measure such as for example the signal to interference ratio (SIR) . The outer loop sets the SIR reference value SIRr for the inner loop. The goal of the outer loop is to control the SIR reference value to achieve a BLER that is equal to the BLER reference BLERr. To get a control system that in steady state achieves a BLER that is equal to the BLER
reference, an integrating controller (9) , which can be, for example, a PI controller, a PID controller, or a pure integrating controller, can be used. The cascade controller illustrated in Figure 1 comprises an inner control loop (2) and an outer control loop (4) . Both control loops have an input of a received signal (y(k)). In the outer control loop 4, the BLER is estimated in a BLER estimation unit (5) and compared with a BLER reference signal. A subtractor (7) calculates the difference between the reference signal and the BLER estimate to supply an input signal to an integrating controller (9) . The integrating controller (9) produces a SIR reference signal.
The SIR reference signal is compared with an SIR estimate from an SIR estimation unit (3) in the inner control loop (2) . The difference between the SIR reference and the SIR estimate is supplied to a function, for example a step function (11) for determining a command u(k) that sets transmission power. More generally, the SIR estimate and the SIR reference value could both be supplied to a function that determines a command u(k) for setting the transmission power.
A known problem with an integrating controller (such as a PI, PID, or pure integrating controller) is that it becomes unstable if the control signal saturates. This problem is often referred to as the windup problem. Transmission power control (TPC) saturation of the control signal corresponds to situations when the maximum (or minimum) transmitter power is used.
The windup problem in the power control algorithms for third generation mobile telephony systems is well known. The specific problem of windup protection in WCDMA makes several additions to anti-windup schemes
used in other areas necessary.
As is well known, integrating controllers have the nice property of being able to achieve zero control error in steady state. As an example of an integrating controller, a continuous time Pi-controller is shown in Figure 2. Discrete time controllers have similar behaviour; see, for example, Karl Johan Astrom and Tore Hagglund, "PID Controllers: Theory, Design and Tuning", Instrument Society of America, Research Triangle Park, NC, second edition, 1995.
A known problem with integrating controllers is that the integrator part turns unstable when the control signal saturates. This instability occurs because feedback from the process is needed to stabilize the controller, which is not open loop stable. In the case of transmission power control, saturation can occur when maximum (or minimum) transmission power is used. In this situation the transmission power can only be decreased (or increased in the case of a minimum) , which can be seen as open loop operation of the integrator.
As the controller is not open loop stable the controller state (the integrator, I-part) can start to build up a large state. This usually results in that it takes a long time for the control loop to start functioning again after the saturation state is left. This problem is usually referred to as the windup problem.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for controlling a radio frequency
(RF) transmitter, the method comprising: using an integrating controller to produce a
reference value of a first quality measure from a first error signal; producing an estimated value of the first quality measure relating to an actual value of the first quality measure; and supplying a tracking signal related to the estimated value of the first quality measure and the reference value of a first quality measure to the reference integrating controller. According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a controller for controlling a radio frequency (RF) transmitter, the method comprising: an integrating controller operable to produce a reference value of a first quality measure from a first error signal; an estimator operable to produce an estimated value of the first quality measure relating to an actual value of the first quality measure; and a tracking unit operable to supply a tracking signal related to the estimated value of the first quality measure and the reference value of a first quality measure to the reference integrating controller. It is emphasised that the term "comprises" or
"comprising" is used in this specification to specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps or components, but does not preclude the addition of one or more further features, integers, steps or components, or groups thereof.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 illustrates a controller for a third generation mobile system; Figure 2 illustrates an integrating controller;
and
Figure 3 illustrates a simplified model of a quality control process;
Figure 4 illustrates a controller according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention; and
Figure 5 illustrates the PI controller of Figure 2 with a tracking signal input.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT To explain the present invention, a simplified model for the quality control process is illustrated in Figure 3. The SIR control loop is modelled as a saturation (21) and a delay (23) .
The process that maps SIR to BLER is modelled as a static function (25) . This is not important for the invention and can be modelled by any suitable means. A problem is that SIR and BLER cannot be directly measured. SIR and BLER can only be estimated. This is indicated in Figure 3 with two estimation noises vk and wk. BLER is usually estimated by evaluating the CRC flags of received blocks for a period of time.
In WCDMA systems, SIR is usually estimated by using so-called pilot symbols transmitted from the base station. Pilot symbols are predetermined symbols that are known to both the base station and the mobile terminal. By observing how the pilot symbols are received in the mobile terminal, the SIR can be estimated. The estimation is split in two parts, estimation of signal power, and estimation of interference power. The signal power is estimated by observing with what power the pilot symbols are received. The interference power is estimated by observing how large variation that is seen in the received pilot symbols. The estimated SIR is then calculated as the ratio of the signal power estimate
and the interference power estimate.
When transmission power saturates (i.e. when the maximum or minimum transmission power is used) the actual and estimated SIR will no longer follow SIRr (SIR reference) . In the tracking approach of the present invention the difference between the estimated SIR and SIRr is calculated and fed back to stabilize the integrating controller. If vk is small the difference will be small, except when the transmission power is saturated.
Figure 4 is a schematic illustration of a tracking solution according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The components of Figure 3 are shown, namely the saturation (21) , delay (23) and the static mapping function (25) . A reference SIR (SIRr) is input to this model to produce an SIR estimate (SIReat) and a BLER estimate (BLERest) .
A reference BLER (BLERr) is supplied via a log function (31) to a subtractor (33) . Also supplied the subtractor (33) is the BLER estimate, via a log function (41) , so that the subtractor (33) produces an error e in the desired quality measure, the error being equal to the difference between the reference BLER and the estimated BLER. The log functions are introduced to ensure that the control loop behaves in a linear fashion, and is not important for the invention.
The tracking solution is illustrated by elements (35) , (37) , and (39) . A controller 35 (C-BLER) receives as one input the error signal e. The controller also receives a tracking signal eg . The controller produces a signal representing the reference SIR for supply to the SIR control loop. The reference SIR signal is also supplied, via a delay element 37, to a subtractor 39 which produces the tracking signal by subtracting the delayed reference SIR signal SIRr from
the estimated SIR signal SIRest.
A Pi-controller with tracking signal input to the integrator is shown in Figure 5. As before, a continuous time loop is shown, but a discrete time version is easily derived and would have similar behaviour.
Figure 5 illustrates an exemplary controller 35 in more detail . As can be seen, the controller includes a gain element 43 of gain K which receives an input e and supplies an output e*K to an adder 44. The error signal e is also supplied to a component 45 having a transfer function K/T1 (where T^ is the integration time) whose output is supplied to an adder 46. A second input of the adder 46 is provided by the output from a second component 49 having a transfer function 1/Tt (where Tt is the tracking time) as supplied with the error signal es . The output of the adder 46 is integrated by the integrator 47 (l/s) and supplied to the adder 44. The output of the adder 44 gives the reference SIR signal. It can be seen that the controller 35 provides the following transfer function as given in equation 1.
An alternative implementation would be to use the estimated tracking signal es to do "conditional integration" . In such an implementation the integrator part is not updated if eg is larger than a threshold, i.e. if
> efhreshold tne integrator is not updated. This solution also prevents the integrator state to build up a large value in scenarios of power saturation.
One exemplary implementation of the tracking arrangement includes to filter es and use a dead zone.
Th s makes the impact of estimation errors smaller in the case when power is not saturated. The classical implementation of a dead-zone is a block with the following function (input: u, output: y, dead-zone parameter : ud) :
The invention is a new application of the tracking approach to the windup problem. The major improvement compared to existing approaches are that the saturation is estimated by comparing siRr and siRest to produce a tracking signal e_s . The invention is applicable to transmission power control systems in both the up-link and the down-link.
