Description

A kind of method and apparatus of transmitting downlink control signal
Technical field
The present invention relates to mobile communication technology, be specifically related to a kind of method and apparatus of transmitting downlink control signal.
Background technology
Current, 3GPP standardization body has finished the formulation of LTE standard, and is formulating a new standard based on the LTE standard and be used to submit to the alternative of ITU tissue as IMT-Advance, and this standard is called as LTE-Advanced, abbreviates LTE-A as.The method of LTE-A system applies carrier aggregation realizes that system bandwidth is configurable, each carrier wave unit is called a carrier wave element (Component Carrier, CC), subscriber equipment in the LTE-A system (User Equipment, UE) can be on each CC operate as normal, the maximum system bandwidth of LTE-A system is 100M.The frame structure of LTE-A system as shown in Figure 1, the radio frames of each 10ms comprises the subframe of 10 1ms, each subframe further comprises the field of two 0.5ms again.For UE distributes CC, the maximum bandwidth that described CC can be used for upstream or downstream transmission and each CC is 20M in each subframe in system.When the CC that distributes is used for when descending, comprise physical layer descending control channel (PDCCH) that is used for transmitting downlink control signal and the physical layer descending data channel (PDSCH) that is used for transmitting downlink data among each CC, heavy line box indicating among Fig. 1 be the PDCCH zone, thinner solid line boxes is then represented the PDSCH zone.
In the standard of LTE system, base station (eNB) may send Downlink Control Information (the Downlink Control Information of different-format for each UE according to the sending mode that UE disposed, DCI)---after eNB encodes DCI, be mapped on the appointment physical resource of Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), described physical channel resources is meant by 1,2,4 or 8 control channel unit (Control Channel Element, CCE) Resource Block of polymerization, each CCE is by 9 resources bunch (Resource Element Group, REG) constitute, each REG then further is made of 4 RE; Appointment physical resource among the described PDCCH PDCCH search volume that is otherwise known as usually, after after eNB is with the DCI mapping, sending to UE, according to current standard, UE just can obtain the DCI that eNB issues by carry out the blind check of limited number of time in the PDCCH search volume of correspondence.
In LTE-A, initial design principle is that the descending PDCCH of independent transmission is used to dispatch the interior PDSCH of this CC in each CC.But, owing to need the problem that disturb mutually the minizone in the consideration heterogeneous network---for example, in macrocell (Macro-Cell), laid simultaneously under via node (Relay Node) or picocell (Pico-Cell) situation, how to reduce of the interference of Macro-Cell base station, can successfully receive the PDCCH information that via node or pico-cell base station are sent to guarantee each node in via node sub-district or the Pico-Cell sub-district to the PDCCH of via node or Pico-Cell base station.Therefore, the discussion of LTE-A standard has adopted following method to solve: select part CC in all available CC, this part CC is used to send its descending PDCCH information by Pico-cell or Relay sub-district, accordingly, macro cell base station then adopts lower transmitting power to send PDCCH or do not send any PDCCH information on the CC of these Pico-cell or the use of Relay sub-district, thereby reduces the interference of macro cell base station to the PDCCH of via node or Pico-Cell base station; And on remaining CC, macro cell base station then adopts maximum transmitted power to send PDCCH to guarantee the coverage of macrocell.Fig. 2 shows a kind of network configuration of possible using said method, comprise a macro cell base station Macro1, two Pico-cell base stations (being respectively Pico1 and Pico2) among Fig. 2 and be positioned at 6 UE (being respectively UE1, UE2, UE3, UE4, UE5 and UE6) of described Macro1 cell coverage area, and described UE0 and UE1 further are positioned at the cell coverage area of Pico1, and UE4 and UE5 then further are positioned at the cell coverage area of Pico2.
If Macro1 distributes 2 CC (being respectively CC1 and CC2) for each UE in this sub-district, the with dashed lines arrow is illustrated in the transmission of carrying out descending control signaling among the PDCCH among the figure, is illustrated in the transmission of carrying out downlink data among the PDSCH with solid arrow.
In order to reduce the interference of macro cell base station to the PDCCH of Pico-Cell base station, set macrocell and send all descending control signalings this moment on CC1, and in the PDCCH of CC2, do not carry out the transmission of descending control signaling, and in the PDSCH of CC1 and CC2, carry out downlink data transmission.For Pico1 and Pico2, correspondingly in the PDCCH of CC2, carry out the transmission of descending control signaling and in the PDSCH of CC2, carry out downlink data transmission; As shown in Figure 2, thereby can realize that macro cell base station (Macro1) transmits Downlink Control Information respectively with Pico-cell base station (Pico1 and Pico2) on different time-domain positions, thereby can reduce the interference of macro cell base station the PDCCH of Pico-Cell base station.
As seen, on different CC, send PDCCH information with via node or pico-cell base station, can effectively avoid the interference of macro cell base station the PDCCH of via node or Pico-Cell base station by the configuration macro cell base station.
Further, the CC that is used to send its descending PDCCH information for described via node or pico-cell base station, its PDCCH is taken by described via node or pico-cell base station, and its PDSCH resource still can be dispatched by macrocell, therefore, in order to dispatch PDSCH resource in the shared CC of described Pico-cell or Relay to improve the throughput of whole macrocell, this initial designs principle of PDSCH that in the existing standard the descending PDCCH of independent transmission in described each CC is used to dispatch in this CC is revised, proposition increases the label that 1~3 bit identifies the pairing CC of this DCI in existing DCI---promptly, PDCCH in the CC is except transmission is used to dispatch the DCI of the PDSCH resource in this CC, can also in the PDCCH in this CC, transmit the DCI that is used to dispatch the PDSCH resource in other CC, thereby make the LTE-A system can support PDCCH and indicated PDSCH thereof to divide the application that is under the different CC situations.Wherein, the DCI that usually will describedly be used to dispatch the interior PDSCH resource of this CC is called DCI-I, the DCI that will be used to dispatch the PDSCH resource in other CC is called DCI-II, correspondingly, the CC of described DCI-I correspondence is called source CC, and the CC of described DCI-II correspondence is called target CC---promptly, DCI-I is used to indicate the PDSCH resource allocation in this CC, and DCI-II then is used to indicate the PDSCH resource allocation in other CC.
Above-mentioned modification is the direction that 3GPP discusses at present, there is no can be for the standard scheme of practical operation, and in existing LTE-A system, PDCCH search volume in the single CC, its capacity might can't satisfy the demand of the DCI that transmits a plurality of CC correspondences simultaneously, therefore, be necessary to propose a kind of feasible distribution method for a plurality of DCI resource needed of transmission at this situation.

The embodiment of the invention at first provides a kind of method of transmitting downlink control signal, for ease of statement, at first introduces some relevant definition and rules below:
Description according to prior art, when eNB is one or more among the CC that distributes of UE, its PDCCH by via node or the pico-cell base station takies and described one or more CC in when comprising the PDSCH resource of needs scheduling again, the pairing DCI of described one or more CC just need not sent by the CC that via node or pico-cell base station take by PDCCH, for the ease of distinguishing, the embodiment of the invention is classified to the CC type, comprising:
First kind CC: refer to that the PDSCH zone that DCI and this DCI are distributed in the CC transmits in same CC---promptly, in the PDCCH of such CC, send and be used for DCI that the PDSCH descending scheduling in this CC is controlled;
The second class CC: refer to that eNB does not send any DCI for UE in this type of CC---promptly, the PDCCH of such CC is taken by via node or pico-cell base station, and comprises the PDSCH resource of carrying out the required scheduling of downlink data transmission to UE in this CC simultaneously;
The 3rd class CC: refer to not only comprise in the CC DCI that is used to dispatch PDSCH resource in this CC, and comprise the DCI that is used to dispatch the interior PDSCH resource of other Type C C (that is to say the second class CC).
In actual applications, eNB can control (Radio Resource Control by Radio Resource, RRC) signaling distributes for each UE the type of its uplink and downlink CC number and each CC, method as for number that is specially UE distribution up-downgoing CC and appointment CC type is not the emphasis that the present invention will discuss, so no longer describe in detail.
For first kind CC, those skilled in the art understand easily, can so the present invention no longer goes through, will be further elaborated at the second and the 3rd class CC below fully according to Rel.8 and the generation of the method that standard provided before and the mapping DCI of existing LTE-A system:
For the second class CC, owing to comprise the PDSCH resource of carrying out the required scheduling of downlink data transmission to UE in this CC, therefore need DCI to come the transmission of downlink data is indicated, PDCCH owing to this CC is taken by via node or pico-cell base station again, therefore, the DCI of described CC is merely able to send by the 3rd class CC;
For the 3rd class CC, because such CC not only comprises the DCI (being DCI-I) that is used to dispatch PDSCH resource in this CC, and comprise the DCI (being DCI-II) that is used to dispatch PDSCH resource in the second class CC, therefore find easily, for certain UE, the second class CC and the 3rd class CC always occur simultaneously in a minute timing---promptly,, then must include the 3rd class CC simultaneously as long as include the second class CC among the CC that eNB is UE to be distributed.As for the concrete number of second, third class CC, then need to determine according to actual conditions.Explanation according to prior art, understand easily, the second class CC of this moment is target CC, hereinafter for convenience of description and distinguish, accordingly, then the 3rd class CC is called source CC---promptly, comprise PDSCH resource to be scheduled in occupied and this CC in the PDCCH search volume of target CC, comprise the DCI-II that is used to dispatch the DCI-I of PDSCH resource in this CC and is used for PDSCH resource in the regulation goal CC among the CC of source simultaneously.
Based on above for the classification of CC, when whether eNB (exists described first kind CC not do qualification when having source CC and target CC among the CC that distributes of UE, because as described in the text, for first kind CC, can generate and mapping DCI according to Rel.8 that has the LTE-A system now and the method that standard provided before thereof fully), amount of capacity according to PDCCH, source CC is different with target CC number, there are several different possibilities, wherein, this CC of DCI-I and all situations can hold to(for) the PDCCH search volume of source CC by the DCI-II of the target CC of its transmission, owing to do not belong to the category that the present invention discusses, therefore do not do going through herein.
And can't hold the DCI-I of this CC and all fully need be by the DCI-II of the target CC of its transmission the time when the PDCCH search volume of source CC, the method that the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of transmitting downlink control signal as shown in Figure 3, this method comprises:
Step 301:eNB is for this cell configuration CC and notify each UE configuration information for the CC of its distribution;
The method of described step 301 comprises: eNB broadcasts the CC that disposes in this sub-district by broadcast channel information, and be the configuration information of the CC of its distribution by each UE of Radio Resource control (RRC) signaling, described configuration information comprises the type of descending CC and the corresponding relation of source CC and target CC at least.
Wherein, the corresponding relation of described source CC and target CC is meant for any one source CC, the DCI-II that comprises which target CC that sends among its CC represents such as the numbering that can use target CC in the practical application in the RRC signaling these targets CC is corresponding to which source CC.
Need to prove, when eNB notified the configuration information of each UE for the CC of its distribution, the configuration information of the CC that distributes for each UE was always not identical, and for example: with the 60MHz system bandwidth is example, if eNB has 4 CC (numbering is respectively CC1, CC2, CC3 and CC4) for this cell allocation, its bandwidth is respectively 20MHz, 20MHz, 10MHz and 10MHz., for certain UE, eNB is first kind CC for it distributes CC1 and CC2, and CC3 is target CC, and CC4 is source CC; And for another UE, then possibility CC1 and CC3 are first kind CC, and CC2 is target CC, and CC4 is source CC.
Step 302: when existing source CC and this source CC can't be in its PDCCH zone to send the DCI-II of the DCI-I of this CC and all target CC thereof in the search volume of this UE among the CC for UE configuration, determine among the DCI-II of described all target CC, the number of the DCI-II that can be in the PDCCH zone of this CC sends in the search volume of this UE is mapped to the DCI-I of the DCI-II of corresponding number and described source CC in the search volume of this UE in the PDCCH zone of this CC and sends.
Wherein, determine among the DCI-II of described all target CC that the method for the number of the DCI-II that can be in the PDCCH zone of this CC sends in the search volume of this UE comprises:

Perhaps, size and single DCI-II occupation space size according to the search volume of this UE in the PDCCH zone of this CC, determine the number of the DCI-II that can hold in the described search volume, the RE number n that the RE number is identical and single DCI-II takies that each DCI-II takies 2=CCE{[(n 1+ A) mod 4] } * C; Wherein, n 1Polymerization grade and 0≤n for the DCI-I of this UE in this CC 1≤ 3, Δ is that the base station is the amount of bias and 0≤Δ≤3 of UE configuration by the RRC signaling, and mod is for getting surplus operation; This DCI-II comprised when CCE{i} represented that the polymerization grade of DCI-II is i CCE number and CCE{i}=2 i, 0≤i≤3, C represents that RE number and its value that each CCE comprises are the pre-configured parameter of system.
At this moment, described with corresponding number DCI-II and the DCI-I of described source CC be mapped to this CC the PDCCH zone in the method that sends in the search volume of this UE comprise:
ENB generates DCI-I according to the channel quality feedback information (CQI) of UE, sends in the middle of the DCI-I of the DCI-II of described corresponding number and described source CC being mapped to the search volume of this UE in the PDCCH zone of this CC.
Step 303: partition capacity is enough shone upon the extended area of the DCI-II of all residue target CC in the PDSCH zone that DCI-I distributed of this UE in this CC, and sends in the middle of the DCI-II of described residue target CC is mapped to described extended area.
The described method of extended area that partition capacity is enough shone upon the DCI-II of all residue target CC in the PDSCH zone that DCI-I distributed of this UE in this CC comprises:
Partition capacity is for setting the extended area of size in the PDSCH zone that the DCI-I of this UE distributed in this CC, described extended area is at first OFDM sign bit after the PDCCH zone of this CC on the time domain, the RE number that the RE number that it comprises takies more than or equal to the DCI-II of all residue target CC, wherein the RE number that takies of the DCI-II of each residue target CC is identical, and the RE number that comprises of described extended area does not comprise the number of the RE that is taken by reference symbol in this extended area.
In actual applications, it is identical with the RE number that the DCI-I of this source CC takies to set each DCI-II usually.But need to prove, because the embodiment of the invention is to utilize PDSCH to control the transmission of signaling (being DCI-II) and downlink data simultaneously in these cases, in order to improve the transmission performance of DCI-II, preferably, eNB can also be according to the detection of uplink reference symbol and DCI-II is dispatched the detection of replying of PDSCH in the CC and negative response (ACK/NACK) information, dynamically set the RE number that comprises in the described extended area, correspondingly, the RE number that this moment, RE number that described extended area comprised took more than or equal to the DCI-II of all residue target CC, correspondingly, this moment described all residue target CC the computing formula of the RE number that takies of DCI-II be:
N 2=k * n 2, and n 2=CCE{[(n 1+ Δ) mod 4] } * C; Wherein, N 2Be the RE number that the DCI-II of described residue target CC takies, n 2Be the RE number that single DCI-II takies, k is the number of the DCI-II of residue target CC; n 1Polymerization grade and 0≤n for the DCI-I of this UE in this CC 1≤ 3, Δ is that the base station is the amount of bias and 0≤Δ≤3 of UE configuration by the RRC signaling, and mod is for getting surplus operation; This DCI-II comprised when CCE{i} represented that the polymerization grade of DCI-II is i CCE number and CCE{i}=2 i, 0≤i≤3, C represents that RE number and its value that each CCE comprises are the pre-configured parameter of system.
Meanwhile, should be pointed out that when DCI-II adopts identical polymerization grade (that is, each DCI-II is identical with the RE number that DCI-I takies) with DCI-I, can reduce the number of times that carries out blind check when UE receives described source CC in described extended area, reason is:
After UE receives described source CC, at first need the DCI-I that comprises in the PDCCH region of search is carried out blind check; When DCI-II adopts identical polymerization grade with DCI-I, in case UE is by carrying out the polymerization grade that DCI-I has been determined in blind check to PDCCH, known the polymerization grade of DCI-II in the extended area with regard to corresponding, thus the RE number that need read also just can determine at every turn to detect the time.For example: when UE determined that from the blind check process of PDCCH the polymerization grade of DCI-I is 0, because the polymerization grade of DCI-I and DCI-II is identical, therefore, the RE number that DCI-I and DCI-II take was 36; Then UE is carrying out blind check when parsing DCI-II to described extended area, only need detect up to therefrom parsing the DCI-II that needs according to the mode that reads 36 RE numbers at every turn to get final product; And if DCI-I adopts different polymerization grades or can't determine in advance whether both have adopted identical polymerization grade with DCI-II, even UE finishes blind check and has obtained DCI-I PDCCH, when described extended area is carried out blind check, still need be that unit attempts with 36,72,144 or 288 RE numbers, up to therefrom parsing DCI-II.Obviously, DCI-I adopts identical polymerization grade can significantly reduce the number of times that UE carries out blind check with DCI-II, effectively improves the power consumption of detection efficiency, reduction network delay and the UE of UE.
As seen, when described DCI-II adopts higher polymerization grade, this method can improve the transmission performance of DCI-II, and when adopting the DCI-II polymerization grade identical with DCI-I to implement, this method then can reduce power consumption and the network delay of UE and improve the detection efficiency of UE, therefore, can adjust according to different performance requirements and carrier policy in concrete enforcement, the present invention does not do concrete qualification.
In addition, the DCI-I of this CC and all can't be held fully for the PDCCH search volume of source CC and need 2 kinds of situations can also be further divided into by the situation of the DCI-II of the target CC of its transmission:
1) exist downlink data etc. to be sent among the CC of source, and the PDCCH search volume of source CC can't hold the DCI-I of this CC and all fully need be by the DCI-II of the target CC of its transmission;
2) do not exist downlink data etc. to be sent among the CC of source, and the PDCCH search volume of source CC can't hold all fully need be by the DCI-II of the target CC of its transmission;
No matter for above-mentioned any situation, the DCI-II of residue target CC is mapped to method in the middle of the described extended area can be had multiplely, does not do concrete qualification in the embodiment of the invention, below only enumerates several examples as an illustration:
A, will remain the DCI-II cascade of target CC, on the time domain on first OFDM sign-on of described extended area, the frequency domain from the minimum subcarrier of described extended area numbering, order according to time domain behind the first frequency domain increases progressively is mapped to described extended area with the DCI-II after the described cascade;
B, will remain the DCI-II cascade of target CC, finish, from described extended area, select to be numbered on the frequency domain subcarrier in the setting range up to first time slot of current subframe from first OFDM sign-on of described extended area on the time domain, order according to frequency domain after the first time domain increases progressively is mapped to described extended area with the DCI-II after the described cascade;
C, will remain the DCI-II cascade of target CC, finish, from described extended area, select to be numbered on the frequency domain subcarrier in the setting range from first OFDM sign-on of described extended area up to current subframe on the time domain, order according to frequency domain after the first time domain increases progressively is mapped to described extended area with the DCI-II after the described cascade;
As seen, in method a, DCI-II after the cascade is from subcarrier of minimum of first OFDM symbol of the extended area of described DCI-I distribution, the order that increases progressively according to the subcarrier sequence number is mapped on whole bandwidth of described extended area, and then from subcarrier of minimum of second OFDM symbol of described extended area, the order that increases progressively according to the subcarrier sequence number is mapped on whole bandwidth of described extended area, and the rest may be inferred until the DCI-II after the described cascade being mapped completely in the middle of the extended area.
Among the described method b, the scope of shining upon on the time domain finishes up to first time slot of current subframe for first OFDM symbol from extended area, then any a section in the whole bandwidth of described extended area on the frequency domain, as long as guarantee the DCI-II after the capacity of described extended area is large enough to hold cascade.When concrete mapping, then be to carry out according to the order of first time domain, back frequency domain;
Similarly, among the method c, the scope of shining upon on the time domain then is any a section in the whole bandwidth of described extended area on the frequency domain for first OFDM symbol from extended area finishes up to current subframe, the same DCI-II that needs only after the capacity that guarantees described extended area is large enough to hold cascade.Also need carry out during concrete the mapping according to the order of first time domain, back frequency domain.
It is to be noted, above-mentioned for example just to existing standard and the less better embodiment of equipment change, should not be construed as qualification to embodiment of the present invention, those skilled in the art can carry out other distortion and modification according to actual conditions, can be held by the extended area that DCI-I distributed fully as long as guarantee the DCI-II after the cascade.
At last, those skilled in the art will also be understood that, because described extended area is positioned at the PDSCH zone, and determined the mapping position of reference symbol in the PDSCH zone by parameters such as antenna configurations situations, therefore, in the time of in the extended area that described DCI-II is mapped to the DCI-I distribution, also need to exclude the running time-frequency resource position that those have been taken by reference signal.
After the step 303, this method can further include:
Step 304: adopt the method for rate-matched to be mapped in the indicated PDSCH zone of the DCI-I of this CC the medium downlink data symbol to be sent of this source CC and send in the middle of the zone except that described extended area.
For further explaining the method for above-mentioned transmitting downlink control signal, be specifically described below in conjunction with several concrete applicating examples, the main resource of how to carry out DCI-I and DCI-II of describing is emphatically shone upon in described each example, and the PDCCH region of search of transmission DCI and definite method of extended area, too tediously long for fear of describing, in the following description slightly but the detailed description of function that the public is known or device etc.:
One, in the present embodiment, suppose that system bandwidth is 60M, disposed 4 CC (numbering is respectively CC1, CC2, CC3 and CC4) in this sub-district altogether, the bandwidth of each CC is respectively 20MHz, 20MHz, 10MHz and 10MHz.ENB utilizes broadcast message to carry out the broadcasting of full sub-district, and utilizes the CC numbering and the type of each the UE configuration of RRC signaling, in the present embodiment, supposes that eNB is that current UE configuration CC1 is that the 3rd class CC, CC2 are the second class CC, and descending transmitting antenna number is 2.The signal of the CC running time-frequency resource position in the subframe of system at this moment as shown in Figure 4, supposition UE all has PDSCH data etc. to be sent at each CC of current subframe in the present embodiment, and the PDCCH zone among the CC1 takies 3 OFDM symbols, and the PDCCH zone of CC2 takies 2 OFDM symbols---as shown in Figure 4, first three of a CC1 OFDM symbol (i.e. the first three rows of CC1 among the figure) is its PDCCH zone, and the PDSCH zone of described CC1 is from the 4th OFDM sign bit of current subframe; And preceding two OFDM symbols of CC2 (i.e. preceding two row of CC2 among the figure) are its PDCCH zone, and the PDSCH zone of described CC2 is from the 3rd OFDM sign bit of current subframe.
