Description

Device-to-device communication method and user equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a Device to Device (D2D) communication method and a User Equipment (UE).
Background
In recent years, wireless communication technology has been greatly developed, and currently, common wireless communication networks include cellular networks. In a cellular network, when a data packet is transmitted between two UEs with a longer transmission distance, the data packet needs to be transmitted from an originating UE to a base station, and then from the base station to a terminating UE. When the transmission distance between two UEs is short, in order to save air interface transmission resources and reduce the overhead of base station control signaling, communication may be performed in a D2D manner, that is, direct communication between the originating UE and the terminating UE is performed without base station forwarding. In the prior art, the D2D communication method may be specifically Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) or the like.
During the research of the prior art, the inventor finds that, when the existing D2D communication method is used to implement communication between two UEs, the originating UE needs to continuously transmit signals in order to discover the terminating UE, and correspondingly, the terminating UE also needs to continuously receive signals in order to maintain communication connection with the originating UE. Therefore, in the conventional D2D communication method, in order to maintain the communication connection between two UEs, the two UEs need to be in the transmitting and receiving states continuously, which wastes the power of the UEs and reduces the D2D communication performance.

Step 102: the first UE sends the transmission parameters of the reference signals to the second UE.
Optionally, when the D2D communication resource is selected between the first UE and the second UE, the first UE may send the transmission parameter of the reference signal to the second UE through a paging message;
optionally, when the second UE selects a cooperative UE for D2D cooperative communication, the first UE may send the transmission parameters of the reference signal to the second UE through a device discovery signal or a paging message, and further, the device discovery signal or the paging message may further include capability information that the first UE has cooperative communication capability.
Step 103: and the first UE sends a reference signal to the second UE according to the transmission parameter, so that the second UE measures the reference signal after receiving the reference signal according to the transmission parameter and performs communication selection according to the measurement result.
The transmission parameters in this embodiment may include: a starting resource block number of the reference signal sequence, a comb number, a transmission bandwidth, a cyclic shift value, a root sequence number, and an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol transmitting the reference signal sequence. The first UE may map the reference signal sequence to a corresponding subcarrier of a last OFDM symbol of the time domain resource according to a comb tooth interval according to lengths of the starting subcarrier and the reference signal sequence, and then transmit the reference signal sequence to the second UE, where the comb tooth interval may be the number of comb tooth numbers, for example, if the comb tooth numbers are 0,1, and 2, the comb tooth interval is 3.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, this embodiment does not require that the UEs of both communicating parties are continuously in the transmitting and receiving states, but can implement interaction by sending the reference signal when D2D communication is required between the UEs, so power of both UEs of D2D communication is saved, thereby improving D2D communication performance.
Referring to fig. 1B, there is a flow chart of another embodiment of the communication method of D2D of the present invention, which describes the D2D communication procedure from the second UE side:
step 111: and the second UE receives the transmission parameters of the reference signals sent by the first UE.
Optionally, when the D2D communication resource is selected between the first UE and the second UE, the second UE may receive the transmission parameter of the reference signal sent by the first UE through the paging message; when the second UE selects a UE for D2D cooperative communication, the second UE may receive transmission parameters of a reference signal sent by the first UE to the second UE through a device discovery signal or a paging message, where the device discovery signal or the paging message may further include capability information that the first UE has cooperative communication capability.
In this embodiment, the transmission parameters may include: a starting resource block number, a comb number, a transmission bandwidth, a cyclic shift value, a root sequence number of the reference signal sequence, and an OFDM symbol transmitting the reference signal sequence.
Step 112: and the second UE receives the reference signal sent by the first UE according to the transmission parameter.
Specifically, the second UE may determine a starting subcarrier for transmitting the reference signal sequence according to the starting resource block number and the comb tooth number, calculate the length of the reference signal sequence through the transmission bandwidth, determine the comb tooth interval according to the number of the comb tooth numbers, and then receive the reference signal sequence transmitted by the first UE on a corresponding subcarrier of the OFDM symbol of the time domain resource mapped according to the comb tooth interval according to the lengths of the starting subcarrier and the reference signal sequence.
Step 113: and the second UE measures the received reference signal to obtain a measurement result.
Step 114: and the second UE performs communication selection according to the measurement result.
Optionally, when the D2D communication resource is selected between the first UE and the second UE, the second UE may select the communication resource for communicating with the first UE according to the channel quality in the measurement result; when the second UE selects a UE for D2D cooperative communication, the second UE may select the first UE for cooperative communication if the channel quality in the measurement exceeds a preset quality threshold.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, this embodiment does not require that the UEs of both communicating parties are continuously in the transmitting and receiving states, but can implement interaction by sending the reference signal when D2D communication is required between the UEs, so power of both UEs of D2D communication is saved, thereby improving D2D communication performance.
Referring to fig. 2A, a flow chart of another embodiment of the communication method of D2D of the present invention describes a process of selecting D2D communication resources through interaction between a first UE and a second UE:
step 201: the first UE generates a reference signal that is communicated with a second UE.
Referring to fig. 2B, a schematic diagram of time-frequency resources of a reference signal in the embodiment of the present invention is shown:
in fig. 2B, it is assumed that a transmission bandwidth of the reference signal is two Resource Blocks (RBs), each RB is composed of 12 subcarriers in a frequency domain Resource and is composed of one 1ms subframe in a time domain Resource, and each subframe includes 14 OFDM symbols. In this embodiment, the last OFDM symbol of each subframe is used to transmit the reference signal, and each RB may transmit the reference signals of three UEs, namely UE1, UE2 and UE3, simultaneously, as shown in fig. 2B, the subcarriers of UE1, UE2 and UE3 are sequentially cycled from the first subcarrier of each RB, that is, each UE may transmit the reference signal at three comb intervals on each RB, and each UE has four subcarriers on each RB.
In this embodiment, assuming that the first UE and the second UE are ready to perform D2D communication and need to determine communication parameters, or the channel parameters need to be determined again between the first UE and the second UE performing D2D communication, the channel detection needs to be performed again between the first UE and the second UE. Referring to fig. 2B, assuming that the first UE is UE1, the first UE selects the starting resource block number n for transmitting the reference signal sequence when generating the reference signalRBThe starting resource block number nRBIdentifying the RB number of the RB mapped by the first symbol of the reference signal sequence to be transmitted by the first UE, and determining the comb number kTCE {0,1,2}, the number of comb teeth number represents the comb tooth interval, there are three combs in this embodimentNumber of teeth, i.e. comb spacing of 3, according to starting resource block number nRBAnd comb number kTCDetermining a starting subcarrier for transmitting a reference signal sequenceDetermining a transmission bandwidth of a reference signal sequenceTransmission bandwidthNumber of RBs occupied by sequence representing reference signal, FIG. 2B, transmission bandwidth is 2 RBs, by which transmission bandwidthCalculating the length of a reference signal sequenceWherein 3 represents a comb interval, determines a root sequence number, selects a Zadoff-Chu root sequence according to the length of a reference signal sequence and the root sequence number, determines a cyclic shift value, and calculates the reference signal sequence according to the Zadoff-Chu root sequence and the cyclic shift value, wherein a reference signal is obtained by performing different cyclic shifts on the Zadoff-Chu root sequence, each UE can select the cyclic shift according to the number of antenna ports to generate the reference signal sequence, different cyclic shifts can be used for distinguishing different antenna ports from the UEs, and the reference signal sequence generated according to the above description can be represented by the following formula:
in the above formula, the first and second carbon atoms are, wherein,ncs={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7},ru(n) is a Zadoff-Chu root sequence,in order to perform the cyclic shift, the bit rate of the bit rate is set to be a cyclic shift,as an antenna index, NapIs the number of antenna ports, ncsThe selection by the first UE represents eight cyclic shifts.
Step 202: the first UE sends the transmission parameters of the reference signals to the second UE through the paging message.
In this embodiment, the transmission parameter may include a starting resource block number n of the reference signal sequenceRBComb number kTCE {0,1,2}, transmission bandwidthThe cyclic shift value, the root sequence number, and the OFDM symbol l, l transmitting the reference signal sequence represent the last OFDM symbol of each subframe.
Step 203: and the first UE sends the reference signal to the second UE according to the transmission parameter.
In this embodiment, the first UE performs the operation according to the starting subcarrier k0And length of reference signal sequenceMapping the reference signal sequence to the last OFDM symbol l of the time domain resource according to the comb tooth interval 3, and transmitting the reference signal sequence to the second UEThe process of mapping to physical resources may be as follows:
in the above formula, the first and second carbon atoms are,for the purpose of a reference signal sequence,for the length of the reference signal sequence,is the transmission bandwidth of the reference signal, Napis the number of antenna ports, βRSIs a power control factor, k0Is the starting subcarrier, nRBIs the starting RB number, kTCThe number of the comb teeth is the same as that of the comb teeth,the number of carriers included for each RB. Take the LTE system shown in FIG. 2B as an example, whereinIs the number of 2, and the number of the second,is 12, thereforeBy calculating 8, i.e. the length of the reference signal sequence is 8, correspondingly, k' =0, 1.
Step 204: and the second UE receives the reference signal sent by the first UE according to the transmission parameter.
After receiving the transmission parameters of the reference signal, the second UE may determine the number n of the initial resource blockRBAnd comb number kTCDetermining a starting subcarrier k of a transmitted reference signal sequence0Through the delivery stripWidth ofCalculating the length of a reference signal sequenceAccording to the number k of comb teethTCDetermines the comb spacing and then based on the starting subcarrier k0And length of reference signal sequenceAnd receiving a reference signal sequence sent by the first UE on a corresponding subcarrier of the OFDM symbol l of the time domain resource mapped according to the comb tooth interval 3.
Step 205: and the second UE measures the received reference signal to obtain the channel quality.
In this embodiment, the second UE calculates the reference signal originally sent by the first UE according to the Zadoff-Chu root sequence and the cyclic shift value sent by the first UE in step 202, and then obtains the measured channel quality by comparing the received reference signal with the original reference signal, where a specific measurement process is consistent with a measurement process of a reference signal in an existing wireless communication system, and is not described herein again.
Step 206: the second UE selects communication resources for communication with the first UE according to the channel quality.
In this embodiment, the process of selecting the communication resource by the second UE according to the channel quality is consistent with the selection process in the existing wireless communication system, and is not described herein again. The communication resource may include a frequency, a bandwidth, a modulation and coding scheme, and the like of D2D communication between the first UE and the second UE.
Step 207: the second UE notifies the first UE of the selected communication resource.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, when the process of selecting D2D communication resources is implemented, it is not necessary that UEs of both communicating parties are continuously in transmitting and receiving states, but rather, when D2D communication is required between UEs, the selection of the communication resources can be implemented by sending reference signals, so that power of both UEs of D2D communication is saved, thereby improving D2D communication performance; and the second UE can select a channel with better performance for communication through the measurement of the reference signal, so that the defects of power waste, poor signal quality and the like caused by poor channel quality are avoided, and the communication performance is improved.
Referring to fig. 3, there is a flow chart of another embodiment of the communication method of D2D of the present invention, which describes the process of selecting a UE for D2D cooperative communication by the second UE through interaction between the first UE and the second UE:
step 301: the first UE generates a reference signal that is communicated with a second UE.
In this embodiment, it is assumed that the second UE is to select a UE for cooperative communication from a plurality of UEs supporting D2D communication, where the first UE is any one of the plurality of UEs supporting D2D communication, and therefore the second UE needs to measure a reference signal transmitted by the first UE to determine whether the first UE is a UE capable of cooperative communication.
The first UE selects an initial resource block number, a comb tooth number, a transmission bandwidth, a cyclic shift value and a root sequence number of a transmission reference signal sequence, determines an initial subcarrier of the transmission reference signal sequence according to the initial resource block number and the comb tooth number, calculates the length of the reference signal sequence through the transmission bandwidth, selects a Zadoff-Chu root sequence according to the length of the reference signal sequence and the root sequence number, and calculates the reference signal sequence according to the Zadoff-Chu root sequence and the cyclic shift value. For a specific example process of generating the reference signal, reference may be made to the descriptions of fig. 2A and fig. 2B, which are not described herein again.
Step 302: the first UE transmits capability information that the first UE has cooperative communication capability to the second UE through the device discovery signal, and transmits transmission parameters of the reference signal to the second UE through the paging message.
In this embodiment, the transmission parameters sent by the first UE may include: a starting resource block number, a comb number, a transmission bandwidth, a cyclic shift value, a root sequence number of the reference signal sequence, and an OFDM symbol transmitting the reference signal sequence.
It should be noted that, in this step, the transmission parameter and the capability information that the first UE has the cooperative communication capability may also be sent only by a paging message or only by a device discovery signal, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Step 303: and the first UE sends the reference signal to the second UE according to the transmission parameter.
The first UE may map the reference signal sequence to a corresponding subcarrier of a last OFDM symbol of the time domain resource according to a comb tooth interval according to the lengths of the starting subcarrier and the reference signal sequence, and then transmit the mapped reference signal sequence to the second UE, where the comb tooth interval may be the number of comb tooth numbers, and the specific exemplary process of mapping to the physical resource may refer to the description in fig. 2A and fig. 2B, which is not described herein again.
Step 304: and the second UE receives the reference signal sent by the first UE according to the transmission parameter.
The second UE may determine a starting subcarrier for transmitting the reference signal sequence according to the starting resource block number and the comb tooth number, calculate the length of the reference signal sequence through the transmission bandwidth, determine the comb tooth interval according to the number of the comb tooth numbers, and then receive the reference signal sequence transmitted by the first UE on a corresponding subcarrier of an OFDM symbol of the time domain resource mapped according to the comb tooth interval according to the lengths of the starting subcarrier and the reference signal sequence.
Step 305: and the second UE measures the received reference signal to obtain the channel quality with the first UE.
In this embodiment, the second UE may calculate the reference signal originally sent by the first UE according to the Zadoff-Chu root sequence and the cyclic shift value sent by the first UE in step 302, and then may obtain the measured channel quality by comparing the received reference signal with the original reference signal, where a specific measurement process is consistent with a measurement process of a reference signal in an existing wireless communication system, and is not described herein again.
Step 306: and when the channel quality exceeds a preset quality threshold, the second UE selects the first UE for cooperative communication.
In this embodiment, when the channel quality in the measurement result exceeds a preset quality threshold, the second UE may select the first UE for cooperative communication; or, after the second UE obtains the channel quality measurement results of multiple UEs, the UE with the best channel quality may be selected from the channel quality measurement results to perform cooperative communication. It should be noted that the policy for selecting the UE performing cooperative communication according to the measurement result may be adjusted as needed, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.
Step 307: the second UE notifies the first UE to perform cooperative communication.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, when implementing the D2D communication process of selecting cooperative communication, the embodiments do not need to continuously enable the UEs of both communicating parties to be in the transmitting and receiving states, but can implement the selection of communication resources by sending reference signals when D2D communication is needed between the UEs, thereby saving the power of both UEs of D2D communication, and thus improving the D2D communication performance; in addition, in this embodiment, the second UE can select a UE with a better channel to perform cooperative communication with the second UE, so as to avoid the disadvantages of reselection of the cooperative UE, power waste, poor signal quality, and the like caused by poor channel quality of the cooperative UE, thereby improving cooperative communication performance.
