Description

Method and system for acquiring downlink control information in MBSFN subframe
Technical Field
The invention relates to an advanced LTE (LTE-advanced) system technology, in particular to a method and a system for acquiring downlink control information in an MBSFN subframe.
Background
A Radio Frame (RF) in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system includes Frame structures of a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) mode and a Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a frame structure in FDD mode, and as shown in fig. 1, a 10 millisecond (ms) radio frame is composed of twenty slots (slots) with the length of 0.5ms and the number of 0-19, and a subframe (subframe) i with the length of 1ms is composed of slots 2i and 2i + 1.
Fig. 2 is a frame structure diagram of TDD mode, and as shown in fig. 2, a 10ms radio frame is composed of two half-frames (half frames) with a length of 5ms, one half-frame includes 5 subframes with a length of 1ms, and subframe i is defined as 2 slots 2i and 2i +1 with a length of 0.5 ms.
In both frame structures shown in fig. 1 and 2, for a standard cyclic Prefix (Normal CP), a slot contains 7 symbols with a length of 66.7 microseconds (us), wherein the Cyclic Prefix (CP) length of the first symbol is 5.21us, and the remaining 6 symbols are 4.69 us; for Extended Cyclic Prefix (Extended CP), one slot contains 6 symbols, and the CP length of all symbols is 16.67 us.
The version number of LTE corresponds to R8(Release 8), and its incremental version corresponds to a version number of R9(Release 9), while the version number of LTE advanced today is R10(Release 10). The following 3 downlink physical control channels are defined in LTE and LTE-Advance:
(1) a Physical downlink Control format indicator Channel (PCFICH), where information carried by the PCFICH is used to indicate the number of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols for transmitting a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in a subframe, and is transmitted on a first OFDM symbol of the subframe, and a Frequency position of the first OFDM symbol is determined by a system downlink bandwidth and a cell Identity (ID);
(2) a Physical Hybrid automatic repeat Request Indicator Channel (PHICH) for carrying acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) feedback information of uplink transmission data. The number and time-frequency position of the PHICH can be determined by a system message and a cell ID in a Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) of a downlink carrier where the PHICH is located;
(3) a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) for carrying Downlink Control Information (DCI), including: uplink and downlink scheduling information, and uplink power control information.
Among them, the formats of DCI (DCI format) are classified into the following: DCI format0, DCI format 1A, DCI format 1B, DCI format 1C, DCI format1D, DCI format2, DCI format 2A, DCI format3, and DCI format 3A; wherein,
DCI format0 is used to indicate scheduling of a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH);
the DCI format1, the DCI format 1A, the DCI format 1B, the DCI format 1C, and the DCI format1D are used for different modes of codeword scheduling of a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH);
the DCI format2, the DCI format 2A and the DCI format 2B are used for different modes of space division multiplexing;
the DCI format3 and the DCI format 3A are used for different modes of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) and a power Control command of the PUSCH.
Physical resources transmitted by a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) are in units of Control Channel Elements (CCEs), the size of one CCE is 9 Resource Element Groups (REGs), that is, 36 Resource elements (Resource elements), and one PDCCH may occupy 1, 2, 4, or 8 CCEs. For the four PDCCH sizes occupying 1, 2, 4, 8 CCEs, tree-like aggregation (aggregation) is adopted, i.e. the PDCCH occupying 1 CCE may start from any CCE location; the PDCCH occupying 2 CCEs starts from an even CCE location; a PDCCH occupying 4 CCEs starts from an integer multiple of 4 CCE locations; PDCCHs occupying 8 CCEs start from CCE locations that are integer multiples of 8.
Each aggregation level (aggregation level) defines a Search space (Search space) comprising a common Search space and a User Equipment (UE) Specific Search space. The CCE number of the whole search space is determined by the number of OFDM symbols occupied by the control region indicated by the PCFICH in each downlink subframe and the number of PHICH groups. And the UE carries out blind detection on all possible PDCCH code rates in the search space according to the DCI format of the transmission mode.
The UE receives PDSCH data transmissions as indicated by a PDCCH of a user equipment-Specific (UE-Specific) search space by a transmission mode (transmission mode) that is set to be based on:
mode 1: a single antenna port; port 0 (Single-antipna port; Port 0);
mode 2: transmit diversity (Transmit diversity);
mode 3: open-loop spatial multiplexing (Open-loop spatial multiplexing);
mode 4: closed-loop spatial multiplexing (Closed-loop spatial multiplexing)
Mode 5: multi-user multiple input multiple output (Multi-user MIMO);
mode 6: closed-loop Rank 1 precoding (Closed-loop Rank 1 precoding);
mode 7: a single antenna port; port 5 (Single-antipna port; Port 5).
If the UE is set by the higher layer to: the PDCCH decoding is performed using a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scrambled by a Cell radio network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI), and the UE should decode the PDCCH and all related PDSCHs according to the corresponding combinations defined in table 1.
TABLE 1
If the UE is set by the higher layer to: the PDCCH decoding is performed by using CRC scrambled by Semi-persistent Scheduled Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SPSC-RNTI), and the UE should decode the PDCCH and all related PDSCHs according to the corresponding combinations defined in table 2.
TABLE 2
In LTE, multi-cell Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service (MBMS) is implemented by combining multiple cells, that is, MBMS signals are transmitted by multiple cells synchronized with each other, and then a combination of multiple cell signals is naturally formed in the air, and this combination is also called Single Frequency Network (SFN) combination because it occurs on the same frequency. The merged transmission is at the UE end, and the reception of the multi-cell MBMS signal does not require any additional complexity, but only needs to be received according to the method for receiving the unicast signal. However, at the eNodeB (base station) side, several different designs are needed to meet the requirements of SFN combining, and one of the most important modifications is to use a longer CP, i.e. extended CP. The conventional CP (normal CP) is designed in a unicast system, that is, a signal sent by the eNodeB of the cell is regarded as a useful signal, and a signal of an adjacent cell is regarded as interference, and at this time, the CP length only needs to cover the multipath delay spread of a single cell. However, in an SFN combining MBMS, also called Single Frequency Network Multicast/broadcast (MBSFN) system, signals from enodebs of multiple cells are all regarded as useful signals, and in this case, the CP needs to cover the delay spread of signals of multiple cells, so there is a longer need for the CP.
In addition, in terms of common Reference Signals (RSs), special MBSFN RSs also need to be designed to adapt to the special needs of MBSFN signal estimation. Therefore, the MBSFN Channel is transmitted in the LTE system using a dedicated Physical Multicast Channel (PMCH).
Currently, in the LTE version, the multicast service on the MBSDN subframe cannot detect downlink control information. In an LTE-Advance system, an LTE-A UE-specific PDSCH may be transmitted on MBSFN subframes. When the LTE-a UE is assigned any one of the downlink transmission modes 1 to 6, a Common Reference Signal (CRS) is used for PDSCH demodulation, and when the LTE-a UE is in an MBSFN subframe, since the MBSFN subframe does not have the CRS, downlink control information cannot be acquired at present, and thus demodulation of the PDSCH cannot be performed.

Detailed Description
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for acquiring downlink control information in an MBSFN subframe according to the present invention, and as shown in fig. 3, the method includes the following steps:
step 300: and the base station sends the downlink control information to the user equipment according to the determined downlink transmission mode.
The method for determining the downlink transmission mode in the step comprises the following steps: after the higher layer (such as a base station) is configured, the UE is informed through a higher layer signaling; alternatively, the setting is performed by a preset method. In particular, the amount of the solvent to be used,
the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN subframe comprises the following steps of: selecting k modes from n modes, and selecting one mode from k modes by high-level signaling; wherein n is a mode 1 to a mode 9 of downlink transmission, k is an integer and is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 9.
The presetting of the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN subframe comprises the following steps: the preset downlink transmission mode is a fixed downlink transmission mode X, wherein the value of X is an integer and X is more than or equal to 7 and less than or equal to 9, or the value of X is an integer and X is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 6. When X is an integer and X is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 6, the preset downlink transmission mode only represents DCI Format 1A transmitted by a single antenna port, wherein the single antenna port is a fixed port, and the port preferred value is port 7 or port 5.
When the mode configured by the base station for the UE is one of a mode a or a downlink transmission mode after the R10 version, the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN is the same mode a; wherein the mode a is one of modes 7-9;
when the mode configured by the base station for the UE is the mode b, the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN is configured by the higher layer: selecting k modes from n modes, and selecting one mode from the k modes by a high-level signaling, wherein n is a mode 1 to a mode 9 of downlink transmission, k is an integer and is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 9; or a downlink transmission mode is preset, the preset downlink transmission mode is a fixed downlink transmission mode X, wherein the value of X is an integer and X is more than or equal to 7 and less than or equal to 9, or the value of X is an integer and X is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 6; or, the downlink transmission mode is preset, wherein the preset downlink transmission mode is DCIFormat 1A transmitted by a single antenna port, the single antenna port is a fixed port, and the port is port 7 or port 5; wherein the mode b is one of modes 1-6;
when the mode configured by the base station to the UE is the mode c, the UE does not transmit the PDSCH on the MBSFN subframe, or the base station does not transmit the PDSCH, or the UE does not perform the detection of the DCI format related to the PDSCH scheduling, and when the UE is configured to the mode d, the UE transmits the PDSCH on the MBSFN subframe, or the base station transmits the PDSCH, or the UE performs the detection of the DCI format related to the PDSCH scheduling. Wherein, the mode c is one of the modes 1-6, and the mode d is one of the modes 7-9; alternatively, the mode c is one of the modes 1 to 8, and the mode d is the mode 9.
When the mode configured by the base station for the UE is the mode e, the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN is the same mode e, and the common reference signal is only sent on the physical resource block which needs the common reference signal for demodulation. Wherein the mode e is one of the modes 1 to 9. At this time, the base station transmits the common reference signal on a physical resource block where the UE needs to configure the common reference signal.
Step 301: and the user equipment acquires the downlink control information according to a corresponding downlink control information format in the determined downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN subframe. The MBSFN subframe is a special subframe for PDSCH transmission of LTE-A UE of an LTE-advanced system. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
in the downlink control information under the determined downlink transmission mode, when a cyclic check code in a downlink control channel is scrambled by using a cell radio network temporary identifier, in a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by a public search space and a cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI), DCI Format 1A is used for representing single-antenna port transmission and port Y under an MBSFN (multicast broadcast single frequency network) subframe; in the non-MBSFN subframe, if the number of Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) antenna ports is 1, single antenna port transmission is adopted, and the port Z is a port Z; otherwise, transmission diversity transmission is adopted. And in a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by the C-RNTI, DCI format1 is adopted to represent single antenna port transmission, and the number of antenna ports is 5. The determined value of the downlink transmission mode may be selected as mode 7, and the antenna port Y and the port Z may be selected as port 5 and port 0, respectively.
In determining downlink control information in a downlink transmission mode, when a cyclic check code in a downlink control channel is scrambled by adopting a cell radio network temporary identifier, in a public search space and a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by C-RNTI (cell-radio network temporary identifier), DCI Format 1A is adopted to represent single-antenna port transmission and port Y under an MBSFN (multicast broadcast single frequency network) subframe; in the non-MBSFN subframe, if the number of PBCH antenna ports is 1, single antenna port transmission is adopted, and the port Z is adopted; otherwise, transmission diversity transmission is adopted. In the UE specific search space defined by the C-RNTI, DCI format 2B is adopted to represent double-layer transmission, antenna ports are port 7 and port 8, or single-layer transmission, and antenna ports are port 7 or port 8. The determined value of the downlink transmission mode may be selected as mode 8, and the antenna port Y and the port Z may be selected as port 7 and port 0, respectively.
In the downlink control information under the determined downlink transmission mode, when a cyclic check code in a downlink control channel is scrambled by adopting a cell radio network temporary identifier, in a public search space and a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by C-RNTI (radio network temporary identifier), DCI Format 1A is adopted to represent single-antenna port transmission under an MBSFN (multicast broadcast single frequency network) subframe, and a port Y is adopted; in the non-MBSFN subframe, if the number of PBCH antenna ports is 1, single antenna port transmission is adopted, and the port Z is adopted; otherwise, transmit diversity transmission is employed. In a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by C-RNTI (C-radio network temporary identifier), DCI format 2C is adopted to represent at most 8 layers of transmission, and an antenna port is one of ports 7-14. The determined value of the downlink transmission mode may be selected as mode 9, and the antenna port Y and the port Z may be selected as port 7 and port 0, respectively.
In summary, the present invention provides a solution to the problem of how to acquire downlink control information, perform PDSCH demodulation, and configure a downlink transmission mode for an MBSFN subframe in LTE-Advance release R10. Therefore, in the LTE-advanced system, the downlink control information in the MBSFN subframe is obtained, and the realization of the demodulation of the PDSCH in the MBSFN subframe special for the LTE-A UE of the LTE-advanced system is ensured.

And the base station is also used for sending the public reference signal on the physical resource block which needs to be configured by the UE.
The user equipment is specifically configured to:
in the downlink control information in the determined downlink transmission mode, when a cyclic check code in a downlink control channel is scrambled by using a cell radio network temporary identifier, in a public search space and a UE (user equipment) proprietary search space defined by the cell radio network temporary identifier C-RNTI, a downlink control information format 1A DCIFormat 1A is used for representing single-antenna port transmission and port Y under an MBSFN subframe; in a non-MBSFN subframe, if the number of antenna ports of a physical broadcast channel PBCH is 1, single antenna port transmission is adopted, and a port Z is adopted; otherwise, adopting transmission diversity transmission; in a UE (user equipment) special search space defined by C-RNTI (radio network temporary identifier), DCI format1 is adopted to represent single antenna port transmission, and the number of antenna ports is 5; wherein, the determined downlink transmission mode is mode 7, and the antenna port Y and the port Z are respectively port 5 and port 0; or,
in the downlink control information under the determined downlink transmission mode, when the cyclic check code in the downlink control channel is scrambled by using a cell radio network temporary identifier, in a public search space and a UE (user equipment) specific search space defined by C-RNTI (radio network temporary identifier), DCI Format 1A is used for representing single-antenna port transmission and port Y under an MBSFN (multicast broadcast single frequency network) subframe; in a non-MBSFN subframe, if the number of PBCH antenna ports is 1, single antenna port transmission is adopted, and a port Z is adopted; otherwise, adopting transmission diversity transmission; in a UE (user equipment) special search space defined by C-RNTI (radio network temporary identifier), DCI format 2B is adopted to represent double-layer transmission, antenna ports are 7 and 8, or single-layer transmission is adopted, and the antenna ports are 7 or 8; wherein, the determined downlink transmission mode is mode 8, and the antenna port Y and the port Z are respectively port 7 and port 0; or,

In the first embodiment, in the downlink transmission mode, the CRS is required to be used for demodulation of the PDSCH in all modes 1 to 6, and the Dedicated Modulation Reference Signal (DMRS) is not required in modes 7 to 9 for demodulation of the PDSCH. Therefore, in the LTE-a UE-dedicated MBSFN subframe of the LTE-Advance system, it is necessary to perform PDCCH detection and PDSCH demodulation according to the patterns of patterns 7 to 9 or later versions, or to limit the transmission modes of patterns 1 to 6. The DCI format 1A in the modes 7 to 9 may need to use a transmission diversity method for transmission, and the transmission diversity transmission method needs CRS for demodulation, so that the transmission method corresponding to the DCI format 1A in the modes 7 to 9 needs to be changed. If the UE is set by the higher layer to PDCCH decoding with cyclic redundancy check scrambled with the cell radio network temporary identity, the UE should decode the PDCCH and all related PDSCHs in the corresponding combinations defined in table 3.
TABLE 3
On an MBSFN subframe exclusive to LTE-Advance UE, one of downlink transmission modes after mode 7, mode 8, mode 9, or R10 version is adopted, or only DCI Format 1A indicating single antenna port transmission is detected, wherein the single antenna port is a fixed port, such as port 7 or port 5, for PDCCH detection.
Specifically, the PDCCH detection is performed according to any of the above modes, and there are several methods as follows:
first, high-level configuration. And k modes are selected from the n modes (mode 1 to mode 9) shown in table 3, and one mode is selected from the k modes by the higher layer signaling. Such as: and selecting 3 modes from the modes 1-9, namely modes 7-9, informing the UE by high-level configuration signaling, and performing PDCCH detection by adopting one mode from the modes 7-9, namely the mode 7, on an MBSFN subframe exclusive to the LTE-A UE.
In the second method, the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN is a preset mode. Such as: a mode is preset on an MBSFN subframe dedicated to LTE-a UE, and when the UE performs PDCCH detection, the mode may be one of modes 7 to 9 in table 3, or only DCIFormat 1A indicating single antenna port transmission may be detected, where the single antenna port is a fixed port, such as port 7 or port 5.
When the mode of the UE configuration is one of modes 7-9 or a downlink transmission mode after R10 version, the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN is the same as the configuration mode;
and when the mode configured by the UE is the modes 1-6, determining the downlink transmission mode on the MBSFN according to the method I or the method II.
In the fourth method, when the UE is configured as the mode c, the UE does not transmit the PDSCH on the MBSFN subframe, or the base station does not transmit the PDSCH, or the UE does not perform the detection of the DCI format related to the PDSCH scheduling, and when the UE is configured as the mode d, the UE transmits the PDSCH on the MBSFN subframe, or the base station transmits the PDSCH, or the UE performs the detection of the DCI format related to the PDSCH scheduling. Wherein, the mode c is one of the modes 1-6, and the mode d is one of the modes 7-9; alternatively, the mode c is one of the modes 1 to 8, and the mode d is the mode 9.
In the second embodiment, in the MBSFN subframe dedicated to LTE-Advance UE, the PDCCH may still be detected according to any one of the downlink transmission modes of modes 1 to 9 or the downlink transmission modes after the R10 release. When the base station notifies that downlink transmission modes 1 to 6 are adopted, or other modes are adopted and CRS is needed for demodulation (CRS on unicast service frequency domain resources of MBSFN subframes is adopted instead of CRS on the whole bandwidth for demodulation of PDSCH), at this time, the position of CRS is the same as the position of CRS of subframes except MBSFN, and the CRS is just equivalent to the interception processing of CRS of the whole bandwidth, and is only transmitted on Physical Resource Block (PRB) which needs CRS for demodulation, and other positions can be transmitted or not transmitted. As shown by the shaded part in fig. 5, the normal subframe (the subframe except the MBSFN subframe) adopts a full-bandwidth CRS structure, and on the MBSFN subframe, the CRS is transmitted only on the physical resource block where the UE needs to configure the common reference signal. Therefore, the definition of any downlink transmission mode does not need to be changed, and only when the CRS is needed to demodulate in the MBSFN subframe, the CRS with partial bandwidth is adopted to demodulate.
The above description is only exemplary of the present invention and should not be taken as limiting the scope of the present invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements, etc. that are within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the present invention.
