In the invention, the set reference channel can be a special channel in the downlink physical channel, which is called as a downlink reference channel, and the other channels in the downlink physical channel are adjusted by using the power value of the downlink reference channel after power control; in addition, a dedicated channel in the uplink physical channel may be set as a reference channel, referred to as an uplink reference channel, and the other channels in the uplink physical channel may be adjusted by using the power value of the uplink reference channel after power control.
Preferably, the downlink reference channel and the uplink reference channel may also be set simultaneously, and used to adjust other channels in the downlink physical channel and other channels in the uplink physical channel, respectively.
Here, the method of power controlling the reference channel may be closed loop power control, or open loop power control, or other power control methods.
In the invention, the power change of the reference channel is equal to the power change of other channels in the physical channel, so that the power of other channels in the physical channel can be adjusted according to the power value of the reference channel obtained after power control and according to the power offset or other corresponding relations between the reference channel and other channels in the physical channel.
The power offset between the channels herein refers to the difference between the reference transmission powers of the two physical channels initially set by the network side.
In the invention, the downlink reference channel can be an enhanced hybrid automatic repeat request indicator channel (E-HICH) for bearing acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) responses of all uplink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes of a user terminal (UE) or a downlink Dedicated Physical Channel (DPCH) allocated for the user; the uplink reference channel may be an unscheduled enhanced physical uplink channel (E-PUCH) or an uplink DPCH channel allocated for the UE.
In addition, the present invention also provides a power control apparatus, the structure of which is shown in fig. 1, including: a power control unit 10 and a power adjustment unit 11. The power control unit 10 performs power control on a reference channel, which is a dedicated channel in the physical channel, and obtains a power value of the reference channel after the power control. The power adjusting unit 11 adjusts the power of other channels in the physical channel according to the power value of the reference channel obtained by the power control unit 10.
The power control unit 10 may perform open-loop power control on the reference channel and obtain an adjusted power value.
In the power control unit 10, the following may be further included: a power monitoring unit 101 and a power acquisition unit 102. The power monitoring unit 101 determines whether the power of the reference channel needs to be adjusted, and sends a power control instruction to the power obtaining unit 102 when the power needs to be adjusted; the power obtaining unit 102 obtains the adjusted power according to the power control instruction of the power monitoring unit 101.

Obviously, the power control apparatus in the present invention may include the downlink power monitoring unit, the downlink power obtaining unit, and the downlink power adjusting unit, as well as the uplink power monitoring unit, the uplink power obtaining unit, and the uplink power adjusting unit, so as to adjust other channels in the corresponding uplink/downlink physical channels according to the power value after the power control is performed on the uplink/downlink reference channel.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, which describes a method for performing power control on an uplink/downlink physical channel by using a closed-loop power control technique, with an E-HICH channel carrying ACK/NACK responses of all uplink HARQ processes of a UE as a downlink reference channel and a non-scheduled E-PUCH channel as an uplink reference channel.
In the preferred embodiment, assume that the communication between the base station and the UE starts with the base station sending data through the E-HICH channel, and the primary closed loop power control of the E-HICH channel and the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel is taken as an example to describe the method of uplink/downlink power control. The specific process of the preferred embodiment is shown in fig. 2:
step 201: and the base station sends data through the E-HICH channel according to the preset reference power transmitted by the E-HICH channel at the network side.
Step 202: the UE receives data sent by the base station from the E-HICH channel and measures the signal-to-noise ratio of the E-HICH channel at the moment.
Step 203: the UE compares the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) measured in step 202 with a SIR target value preset by the network side to obtain a power adjustment indication of the E-HICH channel.
For example, when the measured SIR is greater than the SIR target value, it is instructed to decrease the transmission power of the E-HICH channel; when the measured SIR is equal to the SIR target value, no processing is carried out; and when the measured SIR is smaller than the SIR target value, the transmission power of the E-HICH channel is instructed to be increased.
Step 204: when the UE needs to transmit data through the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel, the value of a power control command (TPC) symbol therein is set according to the indication in step 203, and the data with the set TPC symbol is transmitted through the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel.
For example, if the transmission power of the E-HICH channel is reduced, the TPC value is set to be down; and if the instruction is to improve the transmission power of the E-HICH channel, setting the TPC value to up.
Step 205: and the base station measures the SIR of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel, and compares the SIR with an SIR target value preset by the network side to obtain the power adjustment indication of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel.
When the measured SIR is larger than the SIR target value, the sending power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is reduced; when the measured SIR is equal to the SIR target value, no processing is carried out; and when the measured SIR is smaller than the SIR target value, indicating that the transmission power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is increased.
Here, the SIR target value used for the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel may or may not be the same as the SIR target value used for the E-HICH channel.
Step 206: and the base station receives data sent by the UE from the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel, obtains the value of the TPC symbol in the data, and adjusts the next transmission power of the E-HICH channel according to the value of the TPC symbol.
For example, when the TPC symbol value is down, the base station decreases by one Step (Step) based on the transmission power of the E-HICH channel at this time, that is, based on Step 201, obtains the transmission power of the E-HICH channel at the next time; when the TPC symbol value is up, the base station adds a Step on the basis of the transmitting power of the E-HICH channel at the current time to obtain the transmitting power of the E-HICH channel at the next time.
Here, Step is a value of power that is set in advance on the network side and needs to be lowered or raised in accordance with the value of the TPC symbol.
Here, step 206 may also be performed before step 205.
Step 207: the base station adjusts other channels in the downlink physical channel according to the power value of the E-HICH channel adjusted in step 206.
When an enhanced absolute grant (E-AGCH) channel of a downlink physical channel in the same transmission period needs to be adjusted, the transmission power of the adjusted E-AGCH channel is:
PE-HICHEAGCH-EHICH
wherein, PE-HICHThe adjusted power value of the E-HICH channel is obtained; deltaEAGCH-EHICHIs the power offset between the E-HICH channel and the E-AGCH channel, namely the difference value between the reference transmission power of the E-HICH channel and the reference transmission power of the E-AGCH channel set by the network side. And when the power adjustment value of the E-AGCH channel is obtained, the power adjustment value of the E-AGCH channel can be used for transmitting in the same transmission period as the E-HICH, so that the power control of the E-AGCH channel is realized.
Step 208: when the base station needs to send data through the E-HICH channel again, the TPC symbol in the current data to be sent is set according to the power control indication obtained in step 205, and the current data to be sent is sent through the E-HICH channel according to the adjusted transmission power of the E-HICH channel in this time obtained in step 206.
When the instruction is to reduce the sending power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel, setting the TPC value as down; and when the transmission power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is increased, setting the TPC value as up.
Step 209: and the UE receives the data sent by the base station from the E-HICH channel, obtains the value of the TPC symbol in the data, and adjusts the next transmission power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel according to the value of the TPC symbol.
For example, when the TPC symbol value is down, the UE decreases by one Step (Step) based on the transmission power of the current non-scheduled E-PUCH channel, that is, based on Step 204, obtains the transmission power of the next non-scheduled E-PUCH channel; and when the TPC symbol value is up, the base station adds a Step on the basis of the transmitting power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel at this time to obtain the transmitting power of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel at the next time.
Here, Step is a value of power that is set in advance on the network side and needs to be lowered or raised in accordance with the value of the TPC symbol. The Step for adjusting the transmission power of the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel and the generation power of the E-HICH channel can be the same or different.
Step 210: and the UE adjusts other channels in the uplink physical channel according to the power value of the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel adjusted in step 209.
When the scheduling E-PUCH channel and the enhanced random uplink control signaling (E-URCCH) channel in the uplink physical channel need to be adjusted, the specific method is as follows.
The adjusted value of the scheduling E-PUCH channel is as follows:
Pnschd,ebaseE-TFCISF+KE-PUCH
wherein, Pnschd,ebaseFor the adjusted power value, beta, of the unscheduled E-PUCH channelE-TFCIIs a gain index normalized with respect to a reference power of a scheduling E-PUCH channel after selecting a transport format combination indicator (E-TFCI), an allocated E-PUCH physical resource and a modulation type; gamma raySFIs the gain factor corresponding to the selected spreading factor; kE-PUCHIs a constant related to the QoS of the MAC-d flows mapped onto the E-DCH, configured by higher layer signaling. Because the reference power values of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel and the scheduling E-PUCH channel are the same, the power value adjusted by the scheduling E-PUCH channel can be obtained by adding some factors to the power value adjusted by the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel.
The adjusted value of the E-URCCH channel is as follows:
Pnschd,ebaseE-RUCCH-nschd
wherein, Pnschd,ebaseThe adjusted power value of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is obtained; deltaE-RUCCH-nschdIs E-RUCCHPower offset between the channel and the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel.
Step 211: and when the UE needs to send data through the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel again, sending the data through the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel according to the adjusted transmission power of the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel obtained in step 209.
To this end, in the preferred embodiment, the E-HICH channel is used as the downlink reference channel, and the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel is used as the uplink reference channel, thereby implementing primary power control of the physical channel in the HSUPA technology.
In the preferred embodiment, since power control is described once, when the UE receives data transmitted through the E-HICH channel again, no measurement of the snr of the E-HICH channel is performed.
In practical application, when the UE receives data sent by the E-HICH channel each time, the signal-to-noise ratio of the E-HICH channel is measured, a corresponding power control instruction is returned to the base station, and the transmitting power of the next non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is adjusted according to the instruction of the base station; the same as UE, when the base station receives the data sent by the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel each time, the base station needs to measure the signal to noise ratio of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel, returns a corresponding power control instruction to the UE, and adjusts the transmitting power of the next E-HICH channel according to the instruction of the UE.
In order to achieve better power control effect, if no data is transmitted on the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel, no data needs to be transmitted on the scheduled E-PUCH channel according to the scheduling and non-scheduling interoperation criteria, and then the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel can enter a Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) mode. Likewise, the E-HICH channel will also enter DTX mode if no ACK/NACK for any scheduled and non-scheduled processes needs to be delivered. Because the closed-loop power control is obtained according to the signal-to-noise ratio measurement of the physical channel, frequent data interaction exists in the channel, the feedback efficiency of the power control can be improved, and the performance of the power control can be improved.
Meanwhile, in order to further ensure the convergence and performance of power control, preferably, when the base station does not allocate the scheduling resource of the E-PUCH channel to the UE, and at this time, no non-scheduled E-PUCH channel data needs to be transmitted, the scheduled data block/process may be transmitted on the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel. Therefore, the using frequency of the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is ensured, the feedback frequency of the information is improved, and the performance of power control is maintained.
When the network side additionally configures a dedicated channel for uplink/downlink, the power control of the additionally configured dedicated channel is performed independently.
In addition, preferably, on the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel slot structure, the TPC symbol field appears on the right side of the non-scheduled E-PUCH preamble, as shown in fig. 3 in particular; and the TPC symbol and the SS command of the synchronization timing for adjusting the non-scheduled E-PUCH reference power are carried in the E-HICH channel, and the TPC and SS fields appear on the right side of the E-HICH preamble, and occupy 4 bits, as shown in fig. 4.
In the preferred embodiment, the SIR target value may also be adjusted, for example, by setting a standard error frame rate; the UE estimates data transmitted in a downlink reference channel to obtain an error frame rate, compares the obtained error frame rate with a standard error frame rate, and increases the SIR target value when the obtained error frame rate is greater than the standard error frame rate; and when the obtained error frame rate is less than the standard error frame rate, reducing the SIR target value.
For example, since the E-DCH data block is carried on the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel and Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) protection is performed on the E-DCH data block, the base station may compare the statistical result of forward error correction coding (FEC) with a Frame Error Rate (FER) target value, and if the statistical value of FEC is greater than the FER target value, for example, 1%, the SIR target value is increased; otherwise, the SIR target value is decreased.
In the method provided by the invention, an E-HICH channel for bearing ACK/NACK response of all uplink HARQ processes of the UE can be used as a downlink reference channel, an uplink DPCH channel distributed for the UE is used as an uplink reference channel, and a method for performing power control on an uplink/downlink physical channel by utilizing a closed-loop power control technology can also be used. The general implementation flow of this method is the same as the flow shown in fig. 2, except that the method for adjusting other channels in the uplink physical channel by using the uplink DPCH channel is different, for example, since the reference power of the scheduled E-PUCH channel is the same as the reference power of the unscheduled E-PUCH channel, the adjustment values of the scheduled E-PUCH channel and the unscheduled E-PUCH channel are:
PULDPCHschd-ULDPCHE-TFCISF+KE-PUCH
wherein, PULDPCHAdjusting value after power control is carried out on the uplink DPCH channel; deltaschd-ULDPCHThe power offset between an uplink DPCH channel and a non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is obtained; beta is aE-TFCIThe gain index is normalized relative to the reference power of a scheduling E-PUCH channel after selecting the E-TFCI, the distributed E-PUCH physical resources and the modulation type; gamma raySFIs the gain factor corresponding to the selected spreading factor; kE-PUCHIs a constant related to the Qos of the MAC-d flows mapped onto E-DCH, configured by higher layer signaling.
The adjusted value of the E-URCCH channel is as follows:
PULDPCHE-RUCCH-ULDPCH
wherein, PULDPCHObtaining the power value of an uplink DPCH channel for power control adjustment; deltaE-RUCCH-ULDPCHIs the power offset between the E-RUCCH channel and the uplink DPCH channel.
The power control method of the E-HICH channel and the row DPCH channel can be applied to the situation that the non-scheduling E-PUCH channel is not allocated to the UE at the network side. Of course, when the network side allocates the non-scheduled E-PUCH channel to the UE, a scheme of power control of the E-HICH channel plus the row DPCH channel may also be used.
In this embodiment, a case where the uplink reference channel and the downlink reference channel are jointly subjected to closed-loop power control is described, that is, both the uplink reference channel and the downlink reference channel are subjected to power control. According to the technical solution of this embodiment, only the uplink reference channel or only the downlink reference channel may be power controlled, and the corresponding reverse channel may be used to carry the TPC symbol.
