In the invention, a base station transmits the PDCCH on the extension carrier or the carrier segments to schedule physical resources on the extension carrier or the carrier segments; and a terminal detects the PDCCH transmitted by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segments by using a demodulation pilot reference signal (DMRS); therefore, the physical resources on the extension carrier or the carrier segments are scheduled by the PDCCH transmitted on the extension carrier or the carrier segments, and the stand-alone-capable carrier does not need to schedule the physical resources on the extension carrier and/or the carrier segments bound with the stand-alone-capable carrier, so the working load of the stand-alone-capable carrier to which the extension carrier or the carrier segments are attached is greatly reduced.

Description

Physical downlink control channel sending and detecting method, system and equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a method, a system, and a device for sending and detecting a physical downlink control channel in a long term evolution (lte) upgrade system.
Background
In release 10(Rel-10) of the long term evolution advanced (LTE-a) system, each component carrier in the carrier aggregation satisfies the backward compatibility characteristic, i.e., each component carrier can work independently and access a terminal of release 8/9 (Rel-8/9).
Non-backward compatible carriers proposed in long term evolution advanced (LTE-a) systems mainly include two types of Extension carriers (Extension carriers) and Carrier Segments (Carrier Segments).
Among them, according to the already disclosed proposals, the extension carrier is a non-backward compatible carrier, cannot exist independently, and must work with backward-compatible (stand-alone-capable) carrier aggregation. The available bandwidth of one extension carrier is consistent with the bandwidth supported by release 8(Rel-8), i.e., {6, 15, 25, 50, 75, 100} RBs, and the sum of the bandwidth of one backward compatible carrier and one extension carrier may be greater than 110 RBs. The hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process, resource scheduling, and configuration of transmission mode for one extension carrier are all independently performed. Since the extension carrier does not transmit a cell signature signal including a PSS, SSS, Broadcast Channel (BCH) signal, and the like, it is not possible to provide a terminal (UE) to camp on, and since many proposals indicate that the extension carrier should not transmit a pilot reference signal (CRS), a downlink control channel demodulated based on CRS cannot be transmitted on the extension carrier including a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), a physical hybrid automatic repeat request indicator channel (PHICH), a PCFICH, and the like. Physical resources on one extension carrier are scheduled by an independent PDCCH, the PDCCH transmits on a backward compatible carrier to which the extension carrier is attached, and a cross-carrier scheduling mode is adopted. Fig. 1 shows an example of an extension carrier, in which only traffic data including data of a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) and a physical downlink shared channel (PUSCH) and a corresponding demodulation pilot (DMRS) are transmitted in the extension carrier.
In addition, according to the already disclosed proposals, the carrier segment cannot exist independently, but exists as a segment of physical resource attached to a certain backward compatible carrier, and strictly speaking, the carrier aggregation is not required by using the carrier segment. The bandwidth of a carrier segment can be arbitrarily configured but cannot exceed 110 RBs, and the sum of the bandwidth of a backward compatible carrier and the carrier segment or segments attached to it is no more than 110 RBs. A backward compatible carrier uses the same HARQ entity, with the same transmission mode, as the carrier fragment or fragments attached to it. No cell signature signals, including signals for PSS, SSS, BCH, CRS, etc., are transmitted within the carrier segment and do not provide for camping by the UE. And no PDCCH is sent in the carrier fragment, and the physical resources of the carrier fragment are scheduled by the PDCCH sent on the backward compatible carrier. Fig. 2 shows an example of a backward compatible carrier with two carrier segments bundled, where one PDCCH on the backward compatible carrier can simultaneously schedule itself and any physical resource on the two carrier segments for PDSCH or PUSCH transmission.
In Rel-10, 8 DMRS ports are defined for PDSCH transmission: the ports 7 to 14 support PDSCH transmission of the highest 8 ports. And, the DMRS sequence transmitted on each port is initialized with two different Scrambling sequences (Scrambling codes), which are SCID 0 and SCID 1, respectively.
In the process of implementing the invention, the inventor finds that the following technical problems exist in the prior art:
according to the prior art, a physical layer control channel (including a PDCCH, a PHICH, a PCFICH) is not sent on an extension carrier or a carrier segment, and a PDCCH on a backward compatible carrier to which the extension carrier or the carrier segment is attached is used for scheduling physical resources on the extension carrier or the carrier segment, so that the backward compatible carrier not only needs to schedule the physical resources of the carrier itself, but also needs to schedule the physical resources on the extension carrier and/or the carrier segment bound to the backward compatible carrier, and the workload of resource scheduling on the backward compatible carrier is large, which causes the PDCCH resources in the backward compatible carrier to be limited, and the collision probability to be increased, and the like.

Detailed Description
In order to reduce the workload of a backward compatible carrier to which an extension carrier or a carrier fragment is attached, an embodiment of the present invention provides a PDCCH transmission and detection method in a long term evolution upgrade system.
Referring to fig. 3, a PDCCH sending method in a long term evolution upgrade system according to an embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
step 30: a base station determines physical resources occupied by sending a PDCCH on an extended carrier or a carrier fragment and generates a demodulation pilot signal DMRS for a terminal to detect the PDCCH;
step 31: and the base station transmits the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal by using the physical resource on an extension carrier or a carrier fragment.
In step 31, the base station transmits the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal on an extension carrier or a carrier segment using the physical resource through one or more downlink dedicated pilot ports.
Preferably, before the base station transmits the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal on an extension carrier or a carrier segment using the physical resource through one or more downlink dedicated pilot ports, the base station may transmit the number of the downlink dedicated pilot ports to the terminal through a higher layer Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling; or, the number of the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports and the number of the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports are sent to a terminal through a high-level RRC signaling.
Here, the downlink dedicated pilot port is: downlink DMRS ports as defined in LTE system release 10. Specifically, the downlink dedicated pilot port is: and transmitting a DMRS port used by a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) on the extension carrier or the carrier segment.
In step 30, the base station generates a DMRS for the terminal to detect the PDCCH according to a preset Scrambling Code (Scrambling Code).
Preferably, before the base station transmits the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal using the physical resource on the extension carrier or the carrier segment, the base station may transmit information of the scrambling sequence to the terminal through a higher layer RRC signaling.
Preferably, before the base station transmits the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal using the physical resource on an extension carrier or a carrier segment, the base station may scramble the PDCCH using a Radio Network Temporary Identity (RNTI) of the terminal.
Preferably, the PDCCH is transmitted in Resource Block (RB) units on the extension carrier or carrier segment.
The base station sends PDCCH on the extension carrier or carrier fragment and PDSCH on the extension carrier or carrier fragment in a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) mode, or a Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) mode, or a TDM plus FDM mode.
Preferably, if the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment and the PDSCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment adopt the TDM manner and the PDCCH occupies an OFDM symbol before the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH in the same subframe, the base station may send start position information of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol occupied by the PDSCH to the terminal before the base station sends the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal on the extension carrier or the carrier segment by using the physical resource.
Preferably, if the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment and the PDSCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment adopt the FDM method, the PDCCH and the PDSCH occupy different RBs in the frequency domain.
The base station may send downlink resource scheduling DL Grant signaling in the first N1 OFDM symbols of the subframe, and send uplink resource scheduling UL Grant signaling in the last N2 OFDM symbols of the subframe, where N1 is an integer greater than 0 and less than the total number N of OFDM symbols included in the subframe, and N2 is an integer greater than 0 and not greater than N-N1. For example, N1 has a value of 7 and N2 has a value of 7.
Preferably, if the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment and the PDSCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment adopt the TDM plus FDM manner, and the PDCCH occupies an OFDM symbol before the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH in the same subframe in the RB occupied by the PDCCH, the base station sends start position information of the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH to the terminal in the RB occupied by the PDCCH before the base station sends the PDCCH and the DMRS to the terminal by using the physical resource on the extension carrier or the carrier segment.
Specifically, the base station may send start position information of the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH to the terminal through PCFICH or higher layer RRC signaling.
In the invention, the base station can determine the number of RBs required to be occupied according to the transmission code rate for transmitting the PDCCH, and selects the RBs with the number as frequency domain resources occupied by sending the PDCCH on an extended carrier or a carrier fragment in a specific frequency domain set in a system bandwidth. Specifically, when determining the number of RBs to be occupied, the number of Resource Elements (REs) to be occupied may be determined according to the transmission code rate for transmitting the PDCCH, and then the number of RBs to be occupied may be determined according to the number of REs included in each RB. The specific frequency domain set is sent to the terminal through protocol specification or through high-layer RRC signaling by the base station.
Referring to fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a PDCCH detection method in a long term evolution upgrade system, which specifically includes the following steps:
step 40: a terminal determines physical resources occupied by a base station for sending a PDCCH on an extended carrier or a carrier fragment and generates a DMRS sequence;
step 41: and the terminal detects the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extended carrier or the carrier fragment on the physical resource by using the DMRS sequence.
In step 41, the terminal may first determine a downlink dedicated pilot port used by the base station to send the PDCCH on the extension carrier or the carrier segment; then, the terminal detects the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment on the physical resource by using the DMRS on the downlink dedicated pilot port.
The terminal determines a downlink dedicated pilot port used by the base station to send the PDCCH, and specifically may adopt the following two ways:
firstly, a terminal determines the number of downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports used by a base station for sending a PDCCH according to a high-level Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling sent by the base station, determines the number of the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports corresponding to the number of the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports according to the preset corresponding relation between the number of the ports and the port number, and determines the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports corresponding to the number of the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports as the downlink dedicated pilot frequency ports used by the base station for sending the PDCCH on an extension carrier or a carrier fragment;
secondly, the terminal determines the number of the downlink dedicated pilot port used by the base station to transmit the PDCCH according to the high-level RRC signaling transmitted by the base station, and determines the downlink dedicated pilot port corresponding to the number of the downlink dedicated pilot port as the downlink dedicated pilot port used by the base station to transmit the PDCCH on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment.
Here, the downlink dedicated pilot port is: downlink DMRS ports as defined in long term evolution, LTE, system release 10. Specifically, the downlink dedicated pilot port is: and sending the DMRS port used by the PDSCH on the extension carrier or the carrier segment.
In step 40, the terminal generates the DMRS sequence according to a preset Scrambling Code or a Scrambling Code configured by the base station through a high layer RRC signaling.
In step 41, the terminal detects, on the physical resource, the PDCCH transmitted by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment by using the DMRS sequence and the RNTI of the terminal.
In step 41, the terminal detects the PDCCH transmitted by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier segment in units of RBs on the physical resource.
The PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment and the PDSCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment adopt a TDM mode, an FDM mode or a TDM plus FDM mode.
If the PDCCH sent by the base station on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment and the PDSCH sent on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment adopt the TDM manner and the PDCCH occupies an OFDM symbol before the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH in the same subframe, the terminal determines in step 40 that the physical resource occupied by the base station for sending the PDCCH on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment includes:
and the terminal determines that the base station sends the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDCCH on the extended carrier or the carrier fragment according to the received initial position information of the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDSCH sent by the base station, wherein the OFDM symbols are positioned in front of the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDSCH, and the terminal receives the PDCCH in front of the initial symbols occupied by the PDSCH in a subframe.
And if the PDCCH and the PDSCH sent on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment adopt an FDM mode, the terminal performs blind detection on the PDCCH by taking the RB as a unit.
In step 41, the terminal may detect DL Grant signaling in the first N1 OFDM symbols of the subframe and UL Grant signaling in the last N2 OFDM symbols of the subframe, where N1 is an integer greater than 0 and less than the total number N of OFDM symbols included in the subframe, and N2 is an integer greater than 0 and not greater than N-N1. For example, N1 has a value of 7 and N2 has a value of 7.
If the PDCCH and the PDSCH transmitted on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment adopt the TDM plus FDM method and the PDCCH occupies an OFDM symbol before the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH in the same subframe in the RB occupied by the PDCCH, the terminal determines in step 40 that the physical resource occupied by the base station for transmitting the PDCCH on the extension carrier or the carrier fragment includes:
and the terminal determines that the base station sends the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDCCH on the extended carrier or the carrier fragment according to the received initial position information of the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDSCH in the RB occupied by the PDCCH, wherein the OFDM symbols are positioned in front of the OFDM symbols occupied by the PDSCH. The terminal receives the PDCCH in an OFDM symbol preceding a starting OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH in one subframe within an RB occupied by the PDCCH.
Specifically, the terminal receives the start position information of the OFDM symbol occupied by the PDSCH through a PCFICH or a higher layer RRC signaling sent by the base station.
In step 41, the terminal may perform blind detection on the PDCCH in the specific frequency domain RB set and receive the corresponding PDCCH. The specific frequency domain set is known through protocol specification or according to high layer RRC signaling sent by a base station.
The present invention is described in detail below:
the invention provides that PDCCH is sent on an extension carrier, and DMRS demodulation is carried out by using special pilot frequency, so that the extension carrier can schedule physical resources of the extension carrier through the PDCCH of the extension carrier. Wherein:
1. the PDCCH on the extension carrier is transmitted on a downlink dedicated pilot Port, which may be one or more DMRS ports (ports) defined by Rel-10. For example, PDCCH is transmitted using single Port, one of the downlink DMRS ports (ports 7, 8, 9, 10.., 14) defined by Rel-10, for example, Port 7. If the PDCCH is transmitted using two antenna ports, then transmission is done on two of the DMRS ports as above, e.g., Port 7, 8. If the PDCCH is transmitted using four antenna ports, then transmission is done on four of the DMRS ports as above, e.g., ports 7, 8, 9, 10.
2. The number of antenna ports used for transmitting PDCCH on the extension carrier is configured by higher layer RRC signaling. The specific antenna ports used may be fixed according to the number of antenna ports used, as described in example 1, or may be configured by the base station through higher layer RRC signaling.
3. The scid (screening id) sequence number used for transmitting PDCCH on the extension carrier may be fixed to 0 or 1, or configured by higher layer RRC signaling.
4. For one user, the relation between PDCCH (physical downlink control channel) and DMRS (demodulation reference signal) port of PDSCH (physical downlink shared channel) transmitted on extension carrier and aiming at the user is as follows
The PDCCH may be transmitted on one or more of the DMRS ports used by the PDSCH, e.g., PDSCH transmitted using ports 7 and 8, PDCCH transmitted using port 7.
5. The PDCCH transmitted on the extension carrier may be UE-specific only, scrambled by the RNTI (radio network temporary identity) of the target UE.
6. The PDCCH sent on the extension carrier is transmitted by taking RB as a unit, and the interleaving of REG level is not carried out.
7. On Extension Carrier, the multiplexing relationship between PDCCH and PDSCH can be TDM, i.e. PDCCH occupies OFDM symbol transmission before PDSCH in the whole system bandwidth, as shown in fig. 5A. In this case, the starting OFDM symbol of PDSCH may be indicated by PCFICH in the subframe, or the PDSCH starting position on Extension Carrier may be indicated by higher layer RRC signaling without transmitting PCFICH. The transmission resource of the PDCCH is N OFDM symbols (PCFICH or high-level signaling configuration) in the time domain and M RBs in the frequency domain, one PDCCH occupies one or more RBs according to different transmission code rates, and the UE performs PDCCH blind detection in the resource by using the RB as a unit.
For a UE, it may be specified in advance by a protocol in which frequency domain the UE performs PDCCH blind detection, or notified to the UE in advance by the base station.
8. The multiplexing relationship between PDCCH and PDSCH on the extension carrier may also be FDM, i.e. PDCCH occupies all OFDM symbols within one subframe and different RBs from PDSCH, as shown in fig. 5B. At this time, the resources of the PDCCH are all OFDM symbols in the time domain and M1 RBs in the frequency domain, one PDCCH occupies one or more RBs according to the difference of the transmission code rate, and the UE performs PDCCH blind detection in the resources by taking the RBs as a unit. Specifically, in order to reserve a sufficient processing time for the DL grant, the DL grant may be transmitted in the first N1 symbols of one subframe, for example, N1 ═ 7, i.e., the DL grant is transmitted in the first slot. And the UL grant may be transmitted in the entire subframe or the last N2 OFDM symbols, e.g., the UL grant is in the second slot.
For a UE, it may be specified in advance by a protocol in which frequency domain the UE performs PDCCH blind detection, or notified to the UE in advance by the base station.
9. The multiplexing relationship between the PDCCH and the PDSCH on the extension carrier may also be TDM + FDM, that is, the PDCCH occupies the first N3 OFDM symbols in one subframe in the time domain (for example, N3 ═ 7, that is, the PDCCH occupies the first slot), and the PDCCH occupies M2 RBs in the frequency domain for transmission. As shown in fig. 5C, within the PDCCH RB, the starting position of the PDSCH may be indicated by the PCFICH or indicated by the base station through higher layer RRC signaling. According to the difference of the transmission code rate, one PDCCH occupies one or more RBs, and the UE performs PDCCH blind detection in the resource by taking the RBs as units.
For a UE, it may be specified in advance by a protocol in which frequency domain the UE performs PDCCH blind detection, or notified to the UE in advance by the base station.
All the designs are described for the Extension Carrier as an example, and actually the related designs can be used for sending the PDCCH on the Carrier Segment resource, and the description is not repeated here.
