Description

The supply resource Elemental partition in the physical resource of downlink channel
Technical field
The present invention relates to the methods, equipment that contemplate the supply resource Elemental partition in the physical resource of downlink channel And computer program product.
Background technology
Mobile data transmits and data service constantly makes progress.With the increasingly infiltration of this service, more and more use Family will be applied to data transmission using limited transmission resource.It is therefore important that available resources are used effectively.
Currently, the communication system and/or standard of referred to as long term evolution LTE and existing its advanced versions LTE-A are just developed. These development are so-called multiple-input and multiple-output MIMO on one side, this is the reliability and handling capacity for enhancing transmission Transmit principle.
In general, in mobile communication system, network is indicated by an at least network transceivers station, be known as Node_B ( In UMTS) or be evolution Node_B (eNB, in LTE/LTE-A).This transceiver station is known as the use of UE to one or more Family terminal transmission.This direction of transfer is referred to as downlink DL, and the transmission from UE to eNB is referred to as uplink UL.Transmission Dependent on physical channel and logic channel.Physical channel is mainly determined by time and/or frequency/bandwidth and transmission logic is believed Road.In general, logic channel can be divided into dedicated channel (being used only for particular device) and shared channel (being shared by multiple equipment), And control channel (for carrying control information) and data channel (for carrying payload/data).
About the present invention that hereinafter will be described in more detail, it is main consider physical downlink control channel PDCCH and/ Or physical down link sharing channel PDSCH.
Note that although the present invention explains exemplary reference LTE/LTE-A, this is merely exemplary.Thus, Even if some terms used here be based on or similar to used in LTE/LTE-A term in the case of, the present invention Other communication systems are still can be applied to, as long as they are to be based on identical principle.In addition, even if in one used here In the case that a little terms are different from the term used in LTE/LTE-A, the present invention still can be applied to LTE/LTE-A communication systems System.
For long-range evolution (LTE)-advanced Rel-11 in 3GPP, downlink multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) enhancing Research project has been reached common understanding (see RP-110457, Study on Downlink MIMO Enhancement for LTE- Advanced, 3GPP TSG-RAN meeting #51, kansas, U.S.A city, 15-18 days in March, 2011).One theme is related to increasing Strong physical downlink control channel (being known as E-PDCCH), this is recognized as related with the present invention.
The demand enhanced PDCCH has also been investigated in all bibliography described as follows:Rl-104607, Discussion On PDCCH capacity considering MU-MIMO, Samsung, 3GPP TSG RAN WG1 meeting #62, Spain Madrid, in August, 2010 23-27 days and Rl-111636DL Control Channel Enhancement for DLMIMO In Rel-11, NTT Docomo, 3GPP TSG RAN WG1 meeting #65, Barcelona, ESP, 9-13 days in May, 2011.
The motivation of these work includes for example it is expected to avoid passing with multi-user (MU)-MIMO and collaboration multiple spot (CoMP) The PDCCH capacity for the system sent/received limits.In addition to this, it is also moved under traditional (legacy) physics by by that will control The ink Shared Channel region (PDSCH) and the possibility driving for obtaining interference synergic between more preferably unit.
It is currently just studied in 3 gpp and is similarly machine type by another theme that the present invention herein solves Type communicates (MTC) or Machine To Machine (M2M) communication.In physical layer, MTC may need from a large amount of UE while transmit.However Under the existing definition of PDSCH/PDCCH, this will rapidly result in the transmit capacity exhausted.
E-PDCCH can be multiplexed with PDSCH.About this multiplexing of E-PDCCH and PDSCH, from being submitted to 3GPP Some company's manuscripts of RANI#65 meetings are apparently, it appears that frequency division multiplexing (FDM) structure of E-PDCCH and PDSCH will be most of Preference.FDM, which refers to E-PDCCH and PDSCH, herein will not be mapped to identical physical resources block (PRB), that is, same PRB Middle E-PDCCH and PDSCH not Time Division Multiplexing).
On the contrary, E-PDCCH will be mapped to that the PRB being located at compared with PDSCH in different bandwidth/frequency field.Physics provides Source area block indicates the block for being assigned the physical resource used by channel.In general, physical resource block is by multiple so-called resource elements Plain (RE) is constituted, such as the physical resource of downlink channel is provided in time domain and frequency domain.
From the angle of multiplexing, E-PDCCH will be similar to that PDSCH, that is, be multiplexed into multiple PRB.What distribution was used by E-PDCCH PRB will signal UE by higher (wireless heterogeneous networks, RRC).
There is also the inside discussion of remaining project of related E-PDCCH designs.
That is, in the multiple resource elements for constituting physics resource block, there is carrying collective reference signal (CRS) And/or the resource element of demodulated reference signal (DMRS) or the like (not at least being payload data).Receiving device needs Know which resource element carries this reference signal for suitably receiving the decode.Then monitoring/the monitoring of this receiving device These resource elements are to obtain the knowledge of the reference signal needed for decoding.Therefore, E-PDCCH designs need to consider to given use Family equipment (UE) indicates the mode of demodulated reference signal (DMRS) port index or the scrambler identity (SCID) for E-PDCCH.
One open problem is still the control channel element (CCE) how defined with E-PDCCH.Control channel element Refer to that UE searches substantially one group of resource element of E-PDCCH from it.Such as in current LTE PDCCH, a CCE is defined To be mapped in whole system bandwidth 36 RE (i.e. in more than one PRB) in a distributed way, and UE is poly- from being known as 1,2, the 4 or 8 cascade CCE for collecting rank search DL/UL mandates.Different number of CCE can substantially realize that the link of PDCCH is suitable Match, because selecting the CCE numbers for specifying UE by being suitably based on such as channel quality indication CQI report received from UE Mesh and down link control information DCI format (PDCCH payload), eNB will control encoding rate.
For E-PDCCH, problem is the scale adjustment (dimensioning) of CCE.
According to the assessment of the present inventor, it appears that there are two modes to complete this point:
Mode #1:
A CCE defined in PRB and in addition to being referenced signal (i.e. CRS, DM-RS, CSI-RS and potential other/new ginsengs Examine symbol) all RE other than the RE that occupies or the RE that is kept silent and (be not used or be preserved for other purposes).In this way Example be shown in Fig. 1 (a).
Mode #2;
The design for Rel-10 relaying PDCCH (R-PDCCH) is followed, the physical layer (such as " 3GPP for operation of relays TS36.216Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access(E-UTRA);Physical layer for Operation, V10.3.0,2011 years June of relaying " described in), i.e., by time slot line of demarcation, i.e., in the time domain at 7 PRB is divided into two CCE after OFDM symbol.Such example is shown in Fig. 1 (b).
With reference to figure 1, some substantially applicable definition/relationships are explained to be best understood from.Fig. 1 (a) and (b) are shown such as Resource element in the physical resource of the downlink channel of PDCCH/PDSCH.As indicated, the physical resource of downlink channel It is provided in time domain and frequency domain (bandwidth of reference subcarrier diagram).Each resource element is by the corresponding interval and frequency domain in time domain In corresponding subcarrier bandwidth definition;It is by square box graphic representation.
For specifying subcarrier, multiple resource elements to be defined by the consecutive intervals of the first number in time domain.They use rope Draw 0 to 13 to number.Thus, 14 resource elements (each indicating 1 OFDM symbol) in time domain constitute the 1ms duration 1 subframe, 1 subframe are made of 2 time slots.Thus, corresponding time slot includes 7 OFDM symbols and has 0.5ms Duration.In addition, to being spaced at fixed time, multiple resource elements are determined by the continuous subcarrier of the second number in frequency domain Justice.Their indexs of reference 0 to 11 are numbered.Thus, 12 subcarriers are grouped in time with corresponding 14 OFDM symbols to be formed Respective resources element blocks are also referred to as physical resource block PRB.Other PRB (not shown) is present in the choosing of bandwidth shown in Fig. 1 Take the bandwidth region above and below part.
As shown in Fig. 1 (a), 3 (continuous) OFDM symbols 0,1 and 2 are for example preserved for all subcarriers and define The control areas PDCCH.They constitute the respective resources element blocks for being excluded carrying payload, are hereinafter referred to as special resource Element.Other resource elements include that can be used for carrying payload (for the OFDM symbol 3 to 13 for all subcarriers) Resource element.In these multiple resource elements, several multiple resource elements are referred to as retaining resource element, the reservation resource element The reference signal of element carrying such as CRS, DMRS.
That is, PRB includes 12 being multiplied by 14 (OFDM) resource element RE in total, and the RE in illustrated example In, 3*12 RE is special resource element and 28 RE are to retain RE.Therefore, in this PRB, 104 RE can be used for holding Carry the payload data of E-PDCCH in control channel element CCE.CCE indicates one group in such a or multiple PRB RE:(control) information for being associated with channel is passed wherein, and it is received equipment searching/monitoring.Thus, it is sent out by eNB The DL CCE sent are by receiving UE into line search.
Thus, it can be appreciated that resource-inefficient rate in this one or more scenes shown in Fig. 1 (a) and (b).Also It is to say, the number up to 104 in Fig. 1 (a) for the RE of CCE#k, and CCE#m still has 66 RE and Fig. 1 (b) in Fig. 1 (b) Middle CCE#k has 38 RE.
In table shown in Fig. 2, the possibility that compares the number for the different CCE RE designed and use.For making With the possibility of different aggregation levels, the present inventor is with reference to the estimation in [2] 0 and [5].Hence it is demonstrated that such as Fig. 1 (a) In CCE sizes will be in most cases too big, and the CCE sizes in Fig. 1 (b) are also inefficient, this is because The CCE sizes of 36 RE are that enough possibilities will be greater than 50%.(in most left column, " 1CCE " indicates aggregation levels 1, and " 2CCE " Indicate aggregation levels 2).
Pay attention in subframe exist less than 3 PDCCH OFDM symbols (i.e. for the smaller control areas PDCCH) and/ Or less than 4 collective reference signal (CRS) ports the case where being configured, resource-inefficient rate will than shown in these examples even It is more serious, this is because the number of the RE of each CCE will be even greater than above-mentioned number in these cases.
In addition, E-PDCCH will support closed loop precoding (beam forming gain) and even support frequency domain to a certain extent Scheduling, the two all imply improved link budget.In consideration of it, the problem will even more be shown.
PRB is simply divided along with this problem in time slot line of demarcation:Reference signal (RS) be designed to Entire PRB is used together.In R-PDCCH (Fig. 1 (b)), which is avoided so that the first and second time slots are always used to Same relay node, in other words actually entire PRB is still assigned to 1 UE, even if part of it is (such as in Fig. 1 (b) CCE#m or #k) it can be not used.
It can not for example use same UE that there is this constraint of entire PRB in MU-MIMO arrangements now, because this will be unrestrained Take resource.
It is desirable that small packet is transmitted to multiple UE, similar problems will appear for PDSCH transmission:In view of 64QAM and MIMO with multiple parallel data streams are supported, and 1 PRB can actually be proved to be too many.Therefore this In the case of PDSCH be also resource-inefficient rate.
Therefore, make it possible in the PDSCH region transmitted for the CCE of E-PDCCH or for normal PDSCH into Problem is there will naturally be in terms of the small distribution of row, this is because resource is wasted and/or is encountered in supporting reference signal RS It is difficult.
Thus, however it remains it is further improved the demand of this system.

That is, of the invention, according at least to its illustrative aspect and the above-mentioned or other communication system applicable with it It is related, it is related to the supply resource Elemental partition in the physical resource of downlink channel, wherein the object of the downlink channel Reason resource is provided in time domain and frequency domain.Each resource element is by the corresponding sub-carrier bin in the corresponding interval and frequency domain in time domain Width definition.The multiple moneys defined by the continuous subcarrier of the second number in the consecutive intervals and frequency domain of the first number in time domain Source element defines respective resources element blocks.
In principle, according to in/related one aspect of the present invention of method for being implemented by eNB, for example, this method be related to by Respective resources element blocks are divided into multiple resource element subgroups, and the multiple resource element subgroup is assigned at least two Terminal.This seed group is also referred to as mini-PRB below.
Each aspect of the present invention will illustrate here in greater detail with reference to the attached drawings.In this regard, on the one hand it is known as
" proposing #1 " solves the son aspect of this segmentation below, is on the one hand known as
" proposing #2 " solves the son aspect of reference signal in the subgroup divided below, and is on the one hand known as
" propose #3 " solves the signaling between involved equipment (such as eNB and UE)/in involved equipment below The son aspect of processing.
Propose #1 (segmentation)
It is hereinafter referred to as " tradition " resource as having the resource of the PRB in time domain/frequency domain defined in standard.
Based on this PRB resources, according to an aspect of the present invention, those traditional (such as PDSCH) resource quilts in a PRB It is divided into multiple subgroups or " mini-PRB ".This realizes that the efficiency for E-PDCCH or small PDSCH distribution improves, because each Mini-PRB can be assigned to corresponding terminal.Thus, (tradition) PRB can be assigned to more than one user terminal/by more It is used in a user terminal.
Following summary just divides tradition PRB may be defined with obtaining at least four kinds of of multiple this mini-PRB.
Define #1:
A PRB is divided into multiple mini-PRB in a frequency domain.In each traditional PDSCH region of mini-PRB coverings The subset of all OFDM symbols and several continuous subcarriers as PRB bandwidth.The example of this segmentation applied to traditional PRB It is shown in 3 (a).
Define #2:
A PRB is divided into more than two mini-PRB, whole bandwidth of each mini-PRB coverings PRB in the time domain And subset of several continuous OFDM symbols as traditional PDSCH region.The example of this segmentation applied to traditional PRB is shown in 3(b)。
Define #3
Divide PRB in frequency domain and time domain.
The example of this segmentation applied to traditional PRB is shown in 3 (c).
Define #4:
One PRB is divided into multiple mini-PRB using multiple RE as unit.These mini-PRB are not overlapped, and are had The continuous resource of almost equal size.(this can also be considered as the special circumstances for defining #3 above).Applied to traditional PRB The example of this segmentation be shown in 3 (d).
Notice that the segmentation according to definition #1 to #3 above will obtain rectangular-shaped mini-PRB, and according to point for defining #4 The mini-PRB of non-rectangle shape can be obtained by cutting.Such as (it includes so-called spy not to be located to RE available to 104 in order from 1 to 104 RE those of in the control areas PDCCH of different resource element) when being numbered.Then, for example, the first mini-PRB#k is occupied RE#l-#34, the 2nd mini-PRB#m occupy RE#35-#68, and the 3rd mini-PRB#n occupies RE#69-#104.Therefore, one RE in a OFDM symbol or a subcarrier may belong to different mini-PRB.
It should be noted that respective resources element blocks (traditional PRB) include being excluded the special resource element of carrying payload (control areas PDCCH) and the resource element that can be used for carrying payload.According to #4 is defined, can be used for carrying based on described The number of the resource element of payload and the number of the subgroup of acquisition is executed into the segmentation.Similarly, according to definition #2 And #3, segmentation do not consider those such as 3 OFDM symbols for example occupied by special resource element.
According to #1 to #3 is defined, segmentation is by the time domain, either in a frequency domain or defined in time domain and frequency domain Boundary between resource element subgroup executes, and according to defining #4, segmentation includes defining money by the resource element centainly counted Boundary between source element subgroup.
Respectively from Fig. 3 (a), 3 (b) and 3 (c) it is clear that the boundary between the subgroup was defined in the time domain In the case of, respective sub-set includes all resource elements in one or more of time domain continuous resource element and frequency domain, and In the case that boundary between the subgroup is defined in a frequency domain, respective sub-set includes that one or more of frequency domain is continuous All resource elements in resource element and time domain, and what the boundary between the subgroup was defined in time domain and frequency domain In the case of, respective sub-set includes one or more of one or more of frequency domain continuous resource element and time domain resource element Element.In these cases, one or more of resource elements in time domain are less than first number, and the institute in frequency domain It states one or more resource elements and is less than second number.
In diagram respectively based on defining shown in the exemplary Fig. 3 (a) of mini-PRB, (b) and (d) that #1, #2 and #4 obtain In example, PRB is for example divided into 3 mini-PRB, and as shown in Fig. 3 (c), based on #3 is defined, PRB is for example divided into 4 A mini-PRB.
Define #1
Segmentation PRB makes each 3 mini-PRB#k, #m and #n that will have 4 continuous subcarriers in a frequency domain, such as Shown in Fig. 3 (a).
Define #2
Divide PRB in the time domain as unit of multiple OFDM symbols, it is all as shown in Figure 3 as shown in (wherein mini-PRB#k Including 4 OFDM symbols), mini-PRB#m includes 3 OFDM symbols, and mini-PRB#n includes 4 OFDM symbols.
Define #3
Divide PRB in time domain and frequency domain so that each mini-PRB#k, #m, #n and #l include 6 subcarriers, and Mini-PRB#k and #m respectively includes 6 OFDM symbols and mini-PRB#l and #n respectively include 5 OFDM symbols.
Define #4
Divide PRB as unit of multiple RE.Such as let it is assumed that there are a available RE of M (=104) in PRB, then In the case of 3 mini-PRB will be obtained in the PRB, for the RE centainly counted, the size of corresponding mini-PRB respectively by It is determined as:
(rounding integer value) a RE (=36).
Therefore, mini-PRB#k and #m is respectively provided with 34 RE, and mini-PRB#n has 36 RE.
Propose #2:It introduces and the DMRS of mini-PRB is supported
As previously mentioned, the multiple resource element in tradition PRB includes the reservation resource element for carrying reference signal, By receiving device for decoding transmitted payload.Demodulated reference signal DMRS and collective reference signal CRS are in the various figures Always it is indicated using different shades.In MIMO arrangements, passed from for example various antennas (example as corresponding port) It send.
According to various aspects of the present invention, the support for reference signal can be obtained according at least two alternatives, it is special It is not that DMRS is supported.
In principle, according to the first alternative, it includes reusing that respective resources element blocks, which are divided into multiple subgroups, The reservation resource element of reference signal is carried in respective sub-set, and be may further include and be added to reference signal not Including (or reusable) for being reused retains the resource element of the subgroup of resource element.
In addition, in principle, according to the second alternative, since the multiple resource element includes carrying reference signal Retain resource element, and transmitted via multiple ports due to retaining resource element, implement DMRS supports may include will be through The reservation resource element transmitted by corresponding port is linked at least one subgroup.
If desired, it could even be possible to combination above-mentioned two alternative is to form third alternative.
Independent alternative #1 and #2 will be illustrated in further detail below.
DMRS alternatives #1:
According to this alternative, the specific DMRS designed for each mini-PRB is proposed.Ready column-generation and just For handing over overlay code (OCC) to select, any this novel DMRS designs for (being obtained from segmentation) mini-PRB should be use up Current (i.e. traditional) DMRS of PDSCH may be reused.
This will have such benefit:DMRS is kept in the case of the MU-MIMO of both E-PDCCH and PDSCH transmission Orthogonality, and avoid the interference of the PDSCH transmission to traditional UE.
In same PRB, identical precoding should be applied to space layer on specified mini-PRB and with the mini- The subset of the corresponding DMRS RE of space layer on PRB.
From improving for performance perspective, additional DMRS RE can be inserted using independent sequence and mapping and passed without changing Unite DMRS.
According to DMRS alternative #1, for above-mentioned each example, the DMRS designs that corresponding mini-PRB is defined can be Different:
For example, for defining #1, ready column-generation and it is mapped to for physical resource, the holding of DMRS patterns and Rel- 10DMRS is designed identical.But the DMRS RE in 1 PRB are correspondingly divided into 3 groups, every group is respectively provided with 4 RE, As found out in Fig. 3 (a).In other words, the DMRS only in corresponding mini-PRB is used for the channel estimation of corresponding mini-PRB.It is right In each 3 mini-PRB, same precoding will be applied to E-PDCCH or PDSCH RE and corresponding DMRS RE.
Pay attention to that due to the mini-PRB in a PRB different UE, the precoding between different mini-PRB can be assigned to Vector/matrix can also be independent.
The example that follow Fig. 3 (a), the channel estimation for decoding E-PDCCH or PDSCH will be based only on 1 (tradition) Wherein 4 (for 1 mini-PRB) of 12 DMRS RE in PRB.
#1 is defined more suitable for frequency selectivity is relatively low and the higher channel scenario of time variation.
Similarly, the example described above for being suitable for Fig. 3 (d) in a similar manner, this is illustrated is divided into based on definition #4 Multiple mini-PRB.That is, only the DMRS in corresponding mini-PRB is used for the letter for the corresponding mini-PRB Estimate in road.The example that follow Fig. 3 (d), the channel estimation for decoding E-PDCCH or PDSCH will be based only on 1 (tradition) Wherein 4 (for 1 mini-PRB) of 12 DMRS RE in PRB.
Similarly, the example described above for being suitable for Fig. 3 (c) in a similar manner, this is illustrated is divided into based on definition #3 Multiple mini-PRB.That is, only the DMRS in corresponding mini-PRB is used for the letter for the corresponding mini-PRB Estimate in road.The example that follow Fig. 3 (c), the channel estimation for decoding E-PDCCH or PDSCH will be based only on 1 (tradition) Wherein 2 (for the mini-PRB#m and #n) of 12 DMRS RE in PRB.
According to fixed case, additional DMRS can also be added to those mini-PRB#m and #n respectively, and (they have than it The less DMRS RE of its mini-PRB), the mini-PRB to spread all over the multiple segmentation has the DMRS RE of even number.
For defining #2, current DMRS RE can be naturally partitioned into two by keeping the ability of time domain orthogonal covering Group, and respectively 2 mini-PRB services.However, the mini-PRB# in 1 mini-PRB in the example, i.e. Fig. 3 (b) M does not have corresponding DMRS resources.Therefore, it is necessary to the novel DMRS designs for this specific mini-PRB.
Exact DMRS designs should abide by following principles:
Newly added DMRS RE should not influence currently have DMRS RE, the DMRS RE include pattern, signal sequence, Resource impact etc..
Newly added DMRS RE, which should be located at, not to be had corresponding DMRS and (or if related fixed case is described above, has The DMRS RE fewer than other mini-PRB) mini-PRB in resource area, to realize good channel estimating performance.
Pattern, sequence and the resource impact of newly added DMRS, which should be used, similar with traditional DMRS is configured as benchmark Line.

Define that #2 is relatively low more suitable for frequency selectivity and the higher channel scenario of time variation.
The example that the DMRS RE of the addition of scene are illustrated based on Fig. 3 (b) is shown in Fig. 4.Certainly, similar addition DMRS RE It can be adapted for the mini-PRB#m in Fig. 3 (c) and #n, herein above as described in fixed case.
DMRS alternatives #2:
According to DMRS alternative #2, propose by using the DMRS for being typically only intended for higher order MIMO (such as DMRS port 9 and 10) and utilize have DMRS.In addition DMRS port and the mini-PRB distributed used in introducing Between it is (implicit) link.
It is assigned 1 according to DMRS alternatives #2, each mini-PRB or several have DMRS port.This feelings Under condition, (reception) UE estimates the channel for entire PRB, but then only decodes related part, that is, (multiple) distributed mini-PRB。
May exist predefined link between the DMRS port distributed and the mini-PRB distributed, such as makes (defined above in the mini-PRB for obtaining 3 mini-PRB):
DMRS port 7 is linked to mini-PRB#1,
DMRS port 8 is linked to mini-PRB#2,
DMRS port 9 (with orthogonal covering codes length 2) or DMRS port 11 (with orthogonal covering codes length 4) link To mini-PRB#3.
In addition when PRB segmentations are used for E-PDCCH or in the case where multiple mini-PRB are assigned to same UE, DMRS port number can be linked to multiple mini-PRB, and (in the case of E-PDCCH, a mini-PRB corresponds to a control Channel element CCE processed).In the case of E-PDCCH, this multiple number is determined by aggregation levels.For example, for assembling grade Other 2, DMRS port 7 can be linked to mini-PRB (CCE) #1 and #2, i.e. UE will use DMRS port 7 for both. In the case of PDSCH, this port number is transmitted on the PDCCH in resource allocation field by signaling.
It is related with DMRS alternatives #2, other than DMRS port 7&8, it is also necessary to port 9&10 (or port 11& 13) to provide enough DMRS port numbers (4 ports in total), by DMRS RE/ port links to multiple mini- PRB.Give the example of the link between DMRS port and mini-PRB.But for the 3rd mini-PRB, exact link With at least two possible modes, this is because other two DMRS ports can or be 9&10 (OCC length 2, with 24 DMRS RE) or be 11&13 (OCC length 4 has 12 DMRS RE).That is, in Rel.10, define in total 24 RE, for up to 8 DMRS ports of each PRB.These 24 RE are divided into two groups of occupancy different sub-carrier, And each group supports up to 4 ports.DMRS port in different groups is orthogonal naturally.It is covered via time domain orthogonal code real Orthogonality in existing DMRS port group.When the number of DMRS port in a group is 2, the length of OCC needs to be 2.When one When the number of DMRS port is more than 2 in group, OCC length 4 is needed.
Propose #3:
Such as the network of eNB can configure each UE between corresponding mini-PRB definition and therefore corresponding Switch between DMRS designs.This can for example by wireless heterogeneous networks (RRC) signaling, according to channel attribute and system requirements come It completes.Above, mini-PRB can be for subsequent use in 1 CCE or very small PDSCH distribution of transmission E-PDCCH, thus solves The project for resource-inefficient rate of having determined.MU-MIMO is transmitted as the key technology for PDCCH enhancings and PDSCH transmission.This sky Between multiplexing be likely to occur between multiple E-PDCCH or be happened between the E-PDCCH and PDSCH of the UE from separation.It is right It is multiplexed in E-PDCCH, DMRS orthogonalities and channel estimating performance can be guaranteed under appropriate scheduling.However, E-PDCCH and Multiplexing between PDSCH has more challenge.Fortunately, the quasi-orthogonal design as in Rel-11MU-MIMO can be here By application to reduce inter-user interference.
