Below, the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail with reference to accompanying drawing.First, wireless communication system provided in an embodiment of the present invention is introduced, terminal provided in an embodiment of the present invention and the network equipment are then introduced respectively, finally, CoMP collaboration sets system of selection provided in an embodiment of the present invention is introduced.
Fig. 1 is the structural representation of wireless communication system provided in an embodiment of the present invention.As shown in figure 1, the system includes:Terminal 101 and the network equipment 102;Wherein,
Terminal 101, descending measurement is carried out for each node in multiple nodes in the CoMP Candidate Sets to itself respectively, and the downlink measurements that descending measurement is obtained are sent to the network equipment 102;
The network equipment 102, the downlink measurements sent for receiving terminal 101, and according to the downlink measurements of reception, the CoMP collaboration sets of terminal 101 are selected from the CoMP Candidate Sets of terminal 101.
Wherein, the agreement being based on that communicated between terminal 101 and each node includes but is not limited to following various communications protocols:Global system for mobile communications (Global System of Mobile communication, GSM), CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA) IS-95, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA) 2000, TD SDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access, TD-SCDMA), WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, WCDMA), LTE, Long Term Evolution-enhancing (Long Term Evolution-Advanced, LTE-advanced), personal handyphone system (Personal Handy-phone System, PHS).
Wherein, the network equipment 102 can be base station, base station controller etc..Such as:When being based on LTE or LTE-advanced protocol communications between terminal 101 and each node, the network equipment 102 can be enode (evolved NodeB, eNB), or baseband processing unit (Base Band Unit in eNB, BBU), now each node is RRU;When being communicated between terminal 101 and each node based on gsm protocol, the network equipment 102 can be base station controller (Base Station Controller, BSC), now each node can be base station transceiver (Base Transceiver Station, BTS);When terminal 101 and each node
Between based on TD-SCDMA or WCDMA communication when, the network equipment 102 can be radio network controller (Radio Network Controller, RNC), each node can be node B (NodeB).
Alternatively, terminal 101 carries out the above-mentioned descending whole nodes measured in the CoMP Candidate Sets that targeted multiple nodes can be terminal 101, or part of nodes.
Alternatively, terminal 101 carries out descending measurement to the downlink reference signal that each node in above-mentioned multiple nodes in itself CoMP Candidate Set is sent, and measurement amount can be RSRP or SINR.
By taking RSRP as an example, SINR is similarly.The downlink reference signal that terminal 101 is sent to each above-mentioned node is carried out after descending measurement, and downlink measurements are sent to the network equipment 102, the RSRP values of the downlink reference signal of the obtained node transmitting measured including terminal 101;The network equipment 102 selects CoMP collaboration sets according to the RSRP values of each node received from the CoMP Candidate Sets of terminal 101.
Specifically, CoMP collaboration sets can be selected in the following way:
If the RSRP values that the terminal 101 that the network equipment 102 is received is obtained for the service node measurement of terminal 101 are RSRP_s_dl, the RSRP values RSRP_candidate_dl that some node measurement that the terminal 101 received is directed in CoMP Candidate Sets is obtained, if RSRP_candidate_dl-RSRP_s_dl >=P_Thr_dl, the network equipment 102 selects the node into the CoMP collaboration sets of terminal 101.Wherein, P_Thr_dl can be preset, such as:Can be a value in the range of (- 10dB, 0dB).Wherein, service node can be to receive or sending the signal intensity most strong node of terminal 101, and service node can change with the change of CoMP collaboration sets.
Or, the RSRP values that above-mentioned multiple node measurements that the terminal 101 received can also be directed in CoMP Candidate Sets by the network equipment 102 are obtained are ranked up, the maximum N number of node of selection RSRP values, constitute CoMP collaboration sets.
Alternatively, the network equipment 102 can send measurement configuration information before terminal 101 carries out descending measurement to terminal 101, and the measurement configuration information includes the configuration information for the downlink reference signal that each node in multiple nodes in the collaboration set of terminal 101 is sent.
Alternatively, measurement configuration information includes:The information for the physical resource that the downlink reference signal that each node in the plurality of node is sent takes, such as:Frequency, time slot, code word, symbol, antenna port
Number etc. information.
Alternatively, if being based on Long Term Evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE) protocol communication between terminal 101 and each node, the information for the physical resource that downlink reference signal takes can be the information for the running time-frequency resource that downlink reference signal takes, i.e.,:The information of resource element (Resource Element, RE).
Alternatively, in order that the downlink reference signal of each node transmission can be accurately measured by obtaining terminal 101, the physical resource that the downlink reference signal that each node in the plurality of node is sent takes is different, so that terminal 101 can accurately distinguish the downlink reference signal that different nodes are sent.
Wherein, the downlink reference signal that different nodes in the plurality of node are sent can in the way of code division multiplexing identical physical resource on holding time and in frequency, now, using autocorrelation performance and the preferable code word of cross correlation, can improve terminal 101 measure each node downlink reference signal measurement result accuracy.
Further, the physical resource that the downlink reference signal that each node in multiple nodes is sent takes also meets following conditions one:
On the physical resource for the downlink reference signal that a node in the plurality of node is sent, other nodes in the plurality of node do not send signal (no transimission), the interference that the downlink reference signal that the signal that so a node can be avoided to send as far as possible is sent to other nodes is caused.
Further, the physical resource that the downlink reference signal that each node in the plurality of node is sent takes can also meet following conditions two:
The summation for being used to measure the physical resource of the downlink reference signal occupancy of interference and/or noise of the plurality of node is minimum.
Alternatively, if being communicated between terminal 101 and above-mentioned multiple nodes based on LTE protocol, the downlink reference signal that above-mentioned multiple nodes are sent may include:Cell specific reference signal (Cell-specific Reference Signal, CRS), channel status indicate reference signal (Channel State Indication-Reference Signal, CSI-RS) etc..
Such as:If above-mentioned multiple nodes belong to different districts, and terminal 101 does not support multiple CSI-Process to measure, then the downlink reference signal can be CRS.
For another example:If above-mentioned multiple nodes belong to different districts, and terminal 101 supports multiple CSI-Process
Measurement, then the downlink reference signal can be signal measurement resource (Signal Measurement Resource, SMR) signal in CRS, or CSI-RS.
The scheme that node sends downlink reference signal will be illustrated by taking example one and example two as an example below.
More than, the scheme that the network equipment 102 selects the CoMP collaboration sets of terminal 101 according to downlink measurements is described, and each node sends the scheme of downlink reference signal.Below, the alternative that the network equipment 102 determines metering system is introduced.
As previously described, when being communicated between each node and terminal based on LTE protocol, the current network equipment is generally by controlling each node measurement terminal in CoMP Candidate Sets to send the up channel/signals such as PRACH, PUCCH, SRS or DMRS, the CoMP collaboration sets of terminal are selected according to the measurement result of the out-hole run, network equipment implementation complexity is high.
In the embodiment of the present invention, an alternative is:The network equipment 102 selects the part terminal in multiple terminals to carry out out-hole run, and other-end carries out descending measurement, and to select the CoMP collaboration sets of these terminals, concrete scheme can be found in example three below.
Another option is that:The selected section terminal of the network equipment 102 carries out the combined measurement of uplink and downlink, i.e.,:For multiple nodes in the CoMP Candidate Sets of terminal, part of nodes uses out-hole run, and part of nodes uses descending measurement, for the terminal, and the network equipment 102 combines the result of out-hole run and the result of descending measurement, selects CoMP collaboration sets.Concrete scheme can be found in example four below.Alternatively, for the program, the network equipment 102 may be selected to use out-hole run or descending measurement for carrying out the other-end outside uplink and downlink combined measurement.
Example one
Example one illustrates the alternative for sending downlink reference signal by taking LTE Rel-10 and later release as an example.
For LTE Rel-10 and later release, UE supports CSI-RS measurements.Reference signal sequence in view of CSI-RS is bound with Physical Cell Identifier (Physical Cell ID, PCI) in itself.Therefore, include multiple RRU situation for a cell, in order that UE distinguishes the downlink reference signal that the different RRU of same cell are sent, alternatively, each RRU is launched non-zero power channel status by the way of the time-division and indicates reference signal (None Zero Power Channel State Indication-Reference Signal
NZP CSI-RS), i.e. PCI identicals RRU launches NZP CSI-RS, UE in different time measurement RSRP or SINR and reported on different sub frames.
Alternatively, to improve measurement accuracy, zero energy channel status can be configured on adjacent R RU and indicates reference signal (Zero Power Channel State Indication-Reference Signal, ZP CSI-RS), the NZP CSI-RS of measurement are avoided to be disturbed by adjacent R RU Physical Downlink Shared Channel (Physical Downlink Shared CHannel, PDSCH).
Example two
For LTE Rel-11 and subsequent protocol version, can by the way of example two configurating downlink reference signal, carry out descending measurement.
For LTE Rel-11 and later release, UE supports the process CSI-Process (CSI- processes) of multiple CSI-RS measurements.CSI-process is by a signal measurement resource (Signal Measurement Resource,) and an interferometry resource (Interference Measurement Resource SMR, IMR) constitute, wherein, SMR is configured by NZP CSI-RS, and IMR is configured by ZP CSI-RS.
Generally, UE measures interference and noise power on IMR, channel status (CQI/PMI/RI) is measured on SMR, wherein, CQI is that channel quality guides (Channel Quality Indicator), PMI is pre-coding matrix index (Precoding Matrix Index), and RI is order instruction (Rank Indicator).Each CSI-process can be with separate configurations, and including but not limited to SMR and IMR cycle, biasing, pilot tone pattern, and UE report cycle of feedback, type, channel, such as:Physical Uplink Control Channel (Physical Uplink Control CHannel, PUCCH) or Physical Uplink Shared Channel (Physical Uplink Shared CHannel, PUSCH).
With reference to Fig. 2A, Fig. 2 B, Fig. 2 C and Fig. 2 D, in example two, UE CoMP Candidate Sets include the two nodes of RRU1 and RRU2, and UE is measured and reported to downlink reference signal SMR, and the measurement result that base station is reported according to UE selects CoMP collaboration sets.
In example two, in order to ensure the accuracy of UE measurement results, the physical resource that the downlink reference signal SMR that RRU1 and RRU2 are sent takes meets foregoing condition one and condition two, is described as follows:
With reference to Fig. 2A, UE is configured for two CSI-process:CSI process#1 and CSI process#2, measure RRU1 and RRU2 (measuring 2 ports) channel status respectively.Two
CSI-process configuration modes referring to Fig. 2 B, Fig. 2 C and Fig. 2 D, wherein, Fig. 2 B be RRU1 send downstream signal (Resource Block, RB) pattern, Fig. 2 C be RRU2 send downstream signal RB patterns.From Fig. 2 B and Fig. 2 C:Each RRU is configured with a SMR (including 2 RE) and two ZP CSI-RS, two ZP CSI-RS, and one is IMR, including 4 RE, another is PDSCH silent (muting), also including 4 RE, to avoid interfering adjacent R RU SMR, such as:On the RE that the RRU1 SMR sent take, RRU2 does not send signal;On the RE that the RRU2 SMR sent take, RRU1 does not send signal, that is, meets above-mentioned condition one.
Fig. 2 D are the RB patterns for the downstream signal that UE is received, from Fig. 2 D, and the downstream signal that UE is received includes two SMR and IMR.
RRU1 and RRU2 is can be seen that from Fig. 2 B~Fig. 2 D and shares IMR so that as measurement interference and/or the downlink reference signal of noise, and the summation for the physical resource that IMR takes is minimum, that is, meets above-mentioned condition two.
So configured, then UE measures the interference outside RRU1 and RRU2 and noise power on IMR, then the channel status on RRU1 SMR between measurement and RRU1, such as:RSRP/CQI/PMI/RI etc. is measured, CSI-process#1 measurement result is formed, in CSI-process#1 feedback slot reporting base station.Equally, UE measures the interference outside RRU1 and RRU2 and noise power on IMR, then the channel status on RRU2 SMR between measurement and RRU2, CSI-process#2 measurement result is formed, in CSI-process2 feedback slot reporting base station.
The measurement result that base station is reported according to CSI-process#1 and CSI-process#2, it may be determined that UE to RRU1 channel status, and UE to RRU2 channel status, and accordingly for the UE select CoMP collaboration sets.
Similarly, the scene of two or more node is included for CoMP Candidate Sets, also interference, the purpose accurately measured can be avoided according to above-mentioned condition one and the configuration CSI-process of condition two to realize.
Alternatively, when CoMP candidate's centralized node numbers are more, measurement and feedback load for unconnected terminal, need to configure multiple CSI-process by way of the time-division for UE, so, after measurement feedback after a while, base station can grasp UE to each RRU channel status, also just can be with
CoMP collaboration sets are preferably selected and safeguarded for UE.
