1) by configuration cycle and/or subframe skew, determine the subframe that sends measurement pilot frequency, the cycle that sends the subframe of measurement pilot frequency is the concept of a broad sense, is not limited to uniformly-spaced send, and also can send for unequal interval.For example, the 2ms cycle: have at least three subframes to send measurement pilot frequency in a radio frames; The 5ms cycle: have two subframes to send measurement pilot frequency in a radio frames; The 10ms cycle: only have a subframe to send measurement pilot frequency in a radio frames.The 20ms cycle: only have a subframe to send measurement pilot frequency in two radio frames.
2) configuration cycle and how to send measurement pilot frequency be not limited to above-mentioned 4 kinds of situations within configuration cycle.
3) to pay the utmost attention under various tdd frame structures be all or repeatedly the subframe of downstream arrangements for subframe skew.But also there are following several special circumstances:
I. avoid the collision with other channels and pilot tone, as subframe 0 (PBCH/PSS/SSH place subframe) and subframe 5 (PSS/SSH place subframe) as far as possible;
Ii. do not get rid of subframe 5 and/or subframe 0 allocating and measuring pilot tone;
Iii. do not get rid of special time slot allocating and measuring pilot tone;
Iv. under every kind of cycle, find out as far as possible 3 kinds of different subframe skews.
2, TDD base station is by frame structure and measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information notification terminal.Measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information can adopt high-level signaling or broadcast signaling, recessive or dominant Notification Method.
3, TDD base station is according to frame structure, and other information (as subframe bias internal information, measurement pilot frequency sequence information etc.) of measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration and measurement pilot frequency configuration, send measurement pilot frequency.But following measurement pilot frequency configuration subframe does not send measurement pilot frequency:
I. in special time slot, DwPTS inadequate resource cannot support measurement pilot frequency to send.
4, terminal, according to frame structure and the measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information of TDD base station side notice, obtains measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration.And in the corresponding all or part of reception measurement pilot frequency of subframe.But following measurement pilot frequency configuration subframe receives measurement pilot frequency scarcely:
I. in special time slot, DwPTS inadequate resource cannot support measurement pilot frequency to send.
The measurement pilot frequency collocation method of FDD (frequency division multiplexing) system
1 each configuration cycle of embodiment is offset corresponding to a kind of subframe
1, a kind of measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration option, according to performance requirements, is selected in FDD base station from measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration table (shown in table 16).Measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration table is preserved in base station.

Table 16 is a kind of situation of measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration just, and real system may exist other situations, but has at least one identical point with this form:
1) PBCH (Physical broadcast channel is avoided in subframe skew as far as possible, Physical Broadcast Channel)/SSH (secondary synchronization channel, the subframe at auxiliary synchronization channel)/PSH (primary synchronization channel, primary synchronization channel) place.
Situation about i. cannot avoid completely, preferentially avoids the subframe at PBCH place.
2) configuration cycle is not limited to above-mentioned 4 kinds of situations.
2, FDD base station is by measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information notification terminal.Measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information can adopt high-level signaling or broadcast signaling, recessive or dominant Notification Method.
3, FDD base station, according to other information (as subframe bias internal information, measurement pilot frequency sequence information etc.) of measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration and measurement pilot frequency configuration, sends measurement pilot frequency.
4, terminal, according to the measurement pilot frequency subframe configuration information of FDD base station side notice, obtains measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration, and in the corresponding all or part of reception measurement pilot frequency of subframe.
Embodiment corresponding a plurality of subframe skews of 2 each configuration cycle
1, a kind of measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration option, according to performance requirements, is selected in FDD base station from measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration table (shown in table 17).Measurement pilot frequency sub-frame configuration table is preserved in base station.
