Description

User equipment to suppress interference ability determination
Technical field
The field of the invention is related to wireless communication system, and more particularly to suppression due to being set with the other users in cell The caused interference of standby data communication.
Background technology
In the conventional system, when it is determined that transmitting required power, by monitoring the reference signal sent by network node, Channel quality is determined at user equipment.The feedback signal of channel quality at instruction user equipment is sent to net from user equipment Network node.The monitoring is based on specific hypothesis and does not consider AF panel.
User equipment can detect and suppress to be sent to the ability of the data-signal of other users equipment depending on user sets Standby type, and it is particularly depending on the type for the receiver that user equipment may have.Therefore, user equipment pressing down The ability of system interference depends on user equipment, and significant changes.
Although user equipment of the network node out of its cell receives channel quality instruction, the use of user equipment is not known To suppress the ability of interference.May extra high situation in the presence of the interference between the transmission to different user devices.For example, providing In the case that source is rare, network node, which may decide that, is paired together two user equipmenies, and using same or analogous Precoding sends data-signal to each user equipment.Different power is used for two transmission, and is located most closely to net The user equipment of network node will receive substantial amounts of interference with higher power from the signal for being sent to other user equipment.This The transmission of type is referred to as superposed transmission, and can suppress from transmission dependent on the user equipment near network node To the interference of the data of another user equipment.
Expectation network node understand user equipment to suppress interference ability.
The content of the invention
The first aspect of the present invention provides radio plot being performed at network node, determining the network node Interior user equipment mitigating the ability of the interference of the data-signal sent from the network node to other users equipment Method, this method include:Send at least one channel reference signal;Send interference reference signal, interference reference signal simulation The data-signal sent by network node;And feedback signal is received from user equipment, the feedback signal instruction user equipment To suppress to disturb the ability of reference signal.
Present inventors have realized that expectation be present determines whether user equipment can mitigate from other data-signals Interference situation, for example, can be matched in network node to user equipment and use superposed transmission so that the user through pairing Equipment is at least some time shared frequencies and precoding resource situation.However, the conventional of channel quality determines to be based on specific vacation If performed for standard reference signal at user equipment, and do not consider user equipment to suppress interference ability.For Solves this problem, there is provided the additional interference reference signal for the data-signal that simulation is sent by network node.From user The feedback signal of equipment by provide user equipment to suppress the instruction of the ability of the interference signal, so as in more general terms, The ability that user equipment mitigates interference of the data-signal to other users equipment is provided.
In this respect, disturb reference signal special with the data-signal identical sent with network node by sending The randomly or pseudo-randomly signal of property carrys out analog data signal.In this respect, the data-signal that its feature is modeled can be current The data-signal sent by network node, or it can be that network node is configured as sending and can sending out in the time later The data-signal sent, these characteristics are predefined or selection the characteristics that network node can be used for data transfer.
In certain embodiments, methods described also includes indicating interference reference signal to be sent to user equipment.
Although some user equipmenies complexity may carry out blind Detecting and suppress interference reference signal enough, in some implementations In example, the instruction of reference signal to be sent, which can be supplied to, can help it to identify and suppress the user equipment of signal.
In certain embodiments, instruction includes the instruction for providing time and frequency resource, and the interference reference signal will be at this Sent in time and frequency resource.
There is provided time and frequency resource cause user equipment be able to know that when and wherein monitoring interference reference signal.
The same or similar pre-coding matrix of the data-signal currently transmitted with network node can be used to refer to interference Signal carries out precoding, or can be pre- for data transfer in the case where network node does not currently send data-signal The precoding of definition or from available for the precoding selected in the precoding for transmitting this data.Under any circumstance, precoding The precoding of data-signal can be used for by network node by being so that, and at least some user equipmenies are pre- by identification data signals Coding, and therefore will can be identified for that and suppress.
In certain embodiments, disturb reference signal as hypothesis data transfer in PDSCH (the shared letters of physical down link Road) on sent, alternatively, interference reference signal be included in channel reference signal.
In certain embodiments, using the CRS (channel reference signal) or CSI-RS (channel shapes scrambled by virtual subdistrict ID State information reference signal) sequence, disturb reference signal to be sent as virtual reference signal.Alternatively, disturb reference signal can To be encoded in the reference signal (being probably CSI-RS or CRS reference signals) sent in itself by network node.
In certain embodiments, wrapped for the subset for the time for sending the channel reference signal, interference reference signal Include in channel reference signal.In this respect, for the subset of the time sent by network node, only to dry in reference signal It is probably favourable to disturb reference signal and carry out coding, and the time subset is indicated to user equipment.By this way, not embedding In the case of the interference reference signal entered, channel reference signal is sent in some times, and can be by legacy User Equipment Use.
The situation for the instruction that the time and frequency resource for disturbing reference signal can be found in it is provided in network node Under, then in the case where it is embedded in control signal, the instruction of frequency resource can be simply that it is embedded in the letter Mark in road reference signal, because user equipment will understand that the frequency of the signal.
In certain embodiments, channel reference signal, which is included in TM10 (transmission mode 10) to be used to identify, comes from adjacent net The CSI-IM (channel condition information interferometry) of the interference of network node.The signal includes predetermined time and frequency resource, uses The family monitoring of equipment predetermined time and frequency resource are to determine the received signal level as interference instruction.It is being used as this In the case that a part for signal sends interference reference signal, interference reference signal is sent in these temporal frequency resource blocks, And user equipment will be sought to identify the interference reference signal and be suppressed.Its interference level indicated will indicate that it suppresses The ability of the known disturbances of transmission.
Although the instruction of interference reference signal can be sent to user equipment instruction network node in many ways, In certain embodiments, indicate that network node will send the instruction of interference reference signal in higher signal, and at some In the case of, the instruction includes the instruction that interference signal sends the time sent thereon and frequency resource.
In certain embodiments, method is further used as sending at least one in following item including the higher level signal :The indicating of power, the interference reference signal and at least one channel reference signal of the interference reference signal Power ratio, scramble sequence, customer equipment identification, precoding and modulation instruction.
Such as ratio, scramble sequence, the Yong Hushe of the power of the power of interference reference signal, its power and channel reference signal The standby more information for identifying and modulating instruction etc. can be sent in higher level signal.In this respect, there is height in user equipment In the case of level receiver, it may be necessary to some information in the information come identify and suppress channel disturbance reference signal and/or Suitable CQI is provided from the reference signal.In LTE (Long Term Evolution), such as on modulating the letter with power Breath is sent in higher level signal, and the additional information and interference ginseng of temporal frequency resource are therefore provided in such signal Other characteristics for examining signal are effective.
In certain embodiments, method includes:Multiple interference reference signals are sent, each interference reference signal has following Different item in:Power, scramble sequence, precoding, customer equipment identification and modulation instruction.
Although single interference reference signal can be sent, in certain embodiments, multiple interference reference signals are sent.Just For this, in the case where sending multiple signals, multiple signals can each have different property, and user equipment is special The signal suppressed well can indicate that selection is used for the property of superposition of data transmission.For example, each user equipment can have not Same modulation, and the response from being received from user equipment is different, and network node can determine that user equipment is best able to press down goodly Which modulation is made, and it is thus determined that when user equipment and another user equipment match, which modulation is to be used to be sent to this The more preferable modulation of any data-signal of user equipment.
In certain embodiments, the feedback signal includes one below:CQI and interference level.
Feedback signal from user equipment can be CQI, and CQI is suppressed in interference It has been determined afterwards.Therefore, this is to suppress how successfully to indicate.It can be alternatively after attempting to suppress to disturb The interference level of measurement, and the level will turn into how suppression successfully indicates again.Generally, feedback will be that network node closes The instruction of the user equipment is successfully transmitted data in the data channel using the characteristic with interference reference signal.On CQI, in certain embodiments, it simply indicates the channel quality with inhibited interference reference signal Whether required 10%BLER (block error rate) is higher than.
In certain embodiments, before the interference reference signal is sent to the user equipment indicating concurrent, the side Method comprises the following steps:Determine in the cell including operable to suppress the use of the receiver of at least some data interference A part for family equipment is higher than predetermined level.
It is expense to send interference reference signal, and can also increase the interference to other users equipment.It there may be network Node requires no knowledge about the situation whether user equipment can be suppressed to the interference data signal of other users equipment, and at this In the case of kind, sending the expense of interference reference signal should be avoided by.Therefore, in some cases, before sending these signals, Network node determine user equipment in radio plot with the presence or absence of it is a high proportion of, there are Advanced receivers and can Suppress the user equipment of interference.In this respect, the interference from any kind of data-signal can not be suppressed in user equipment In the case of, determine user equipment is unworthy to suppress the ability of certain interference.Network node can be by controlling The information sent during signaling processed understands UE capability.Therefore, network node can be based on having height in radio plot The quantity of the user equipment of level receiver disturbs reference signal to decide whether to start to send.

Embodiment
Before embodiment is discussed in more detail, general introduction will be provided first.
Network node determines that the ability for this interference of Interference and its suppression that user equipment can suffer from is typically complicated. User equipment positioned at radio plot edge will suffer from the interference from adjacent network node.Interference for neighbor cell subtracts It is gently complicated, and needs the cooperation between network node.However, in addition to this interference, also exist by network node Interference to the data transfers of the different user devices in cell itself.If network node is known and controls these communications, this A little interference can more easily be determined and mitigated.However, network node may be unaware that special user equipment suppressing this The ability of kind interference, and which has limited the ability of its effective scheduled transmission.
In order to solve this problem, and allow network node to determine that the user equipment in its radio plot mitigates and send The ability of the interference of the data-signal of other users equipment in cell, the number that network node generation analog network node is sent It is believed that number interference reference signal, and by this way, user equipment suppressing the ability of these interference reference signals To be the user equipment suppressing the other users equipment with same or analogous characteristic in data transfer to cell Interference signal ability instruction.
This uses same or analogous frequency and time resource and same or analogous precoding in such as network node Can be with particularly useful in the case of the superposed transmission sent to two user equipmenies.Near the customer equipment identification of network node Transmission and the ability that is suppressed to other users equipment will influence whether it can be successfully received the data transfer of itself.
Fig. 1 illustrates such case.In Fig. 1, the network node of eNB (enode b) form is to two user equipmenies UE1 and UE2 sends data.Superposed transmission with similar fast fading channel condition to UE1 and UE2, such as by similar or Identical pre-coding matrix carries out precoding so that these UE will suffer from disturbing between serious UE.Especially, if UE2 is in At cell edge and larger transmit power is distributed, UE1 seriously will be influenceed by UE2.If UE1 has advanced reception Device, then it can eliminate the interference from UE2 at least in part, and remain able to successfully solve the PDSCH data of their own Code.However, UE specifically disturbs elimination ability to be not specified by a standard, and generally not known to network.By this way, In general, network node not can determine that whether UE1 can suppress the interference from its transmission to UE2, therefore will be unable to really Whether fixed superposition by this way succeeds.Embodiments of the invention solve this point, and allow network node to understand and use Family equipment suppressing the ability of interference of the data transfer to other users equipment.
Fig. 2 shows the flow chart of the step in the method for schematically showing and being performed according to embodiment.
Initially, determine whether there is Advanced receivers more than a certain proportion of UE in cell.In this respect, network node from The ability of intra-cell users equipment is understood in the transmission that these user equipmenies receive.User equipment with Advanced receivers can be with At least some interference caused by the data transfer to other users equipment can be suppressed, and therefore, only in cell In the case of these a number of user equipmenies being inside present, it is worth the interference rejection capability for determining user equipment.In cell In the case of without many such user equipmenies, the expense for sending interference reference signal is probably unworthy.
Therefore, if it is determined that in the cell in the absence of these Advanced receivers UE of predetermined ratio, then no insertion its In interference reference signal in the case of, cell reference signals are sent, and if it is determined that existing in cell a number of advanced Receiver UE, then reference signal is with the interference reference signal being embedded.
User equipment in cell will receive reference signal, and determine the quality of channel, concurrent channels quality indicator. Network node receives CQI, and in the case where have sent embedded interference reference signal, it is determined that Whether the CQI indicates the good suppression to interference signal.If CQI indicates good really Suppress, then this represents that the user equipment may be used as user equipment centering and be disturbed user equipment for superposed transmission.Therefore, Network node can be user equipment as this role selecting, and by itself and other users device pairing, and use identical Pre-coding matrix, time and frequency resource send data to two user equipmenies, and dependent on the use near network node Family equipment, to suppress to be pointed to the data transfer further from the user equipment of network node.
Fig. 3 shows the step in the method performed at user equipment according to one embodiment.User equipment is from net Network node is received the time for sending channel disturbance reference signal and the instruction of frequency resource.In this respect, instruction can be specific Ground identified time and frequency resource, or can indicate to be transmitted in the given time and be embedded in specific reference signals. In the case of the interference reference signal for not having insertion within a period of time, reference signal can be sent, and in time subset In the case of in the presence of embedded interference reference signal, reference signal can be sent.
Under any circumstance, as the time indicated by user equipment monitors and frequency resource, and user equipment determination is It is no to detect interference reference signal.In this respect, the hypothesis data letter that interference reference signal analog network node may be sent Number, and the therefore time indicated by user equipment monitors and frequency resource, to check whether it can be with data detection signal.Such as Fruit can be can then suppress the data-signal, and determine channel quality after the interference suppression.If cannot data detection signal, Channel quality will be then determined, but suppresses interference reference signal due to no, the channel quality detected (is probably BLER low In the instruction of some value, or can be the intensity that reference signal is disturbed) it can reduce.Therefore, identified channel quality will The interference whether repressed instruction of reference signal is provided.CQI is output to network node, and network node It can suppress to disturb the ability of reference signal (to reflect it and be suppressed to other users equipment from this determination user equipment The ability of data-signal).
In current system, channel quality indicator CQI can be with 10% BLER based on PDSCH transport block sizes and UE The MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme) decoded.By measuring reference signals (for example, CRS or CSI-RS), UE will be based on specific false If BLER export CQI and feedback CQI with 10%.These are assumed (for example, maximizing letter using pre-coding matrix/precoder Road capacity) it is considered as a part for specification, and observed by all UE.
The CQI of current report does not account for disturbing elimination/suppression, and therefore uses existing CQI processes, and report is " sad The CQI (causing eNB to dispatch the TBS smaller than required TBS (transport block size)) of sight ", so as to make full use of by Rel These advantages that 12NAICS or the superposed transmissions of Rel 13 provide.In Rel 13, RAN1, which will be studied, can be classified as MU- MIMO (multiuser MIMO) worst practice and the overlapping transmission scheme for depending critically upon UE interference elimination abilities.Superposed transmission It will make that there is for example (being meaned by multiple UE of phase Sihe identical pre-coding matrix precoding for similar fast fading channel condition Those UE to will suffer from disturbing between serious UE) pairing.For example, because UE2 is at cell edge and is assigned with big biography Defeated power, so in Fig. 1, UE1 will suffer from having a strong impact on for UE2.If some auxiliary informations can be supplied to UE1 and go back The PDSCH data of their own can be successfully decoded, then the UE I with Advanced receivers can partly eliminate dry from UE2 Disturb.However, UE specifically disturb elimination ability be not as defined in standard, and generally not known to network.
As described above, existing cqi definition is realized depending on UE, and do not consider that interference eliminates.Although outside link adaptation Portion's loop can ultimately result in eNB scheduling " correct " TBS, but the process is very slow and requires the disturbed condition during adaptation Keep constant.
For superposed transmission scheme, it would be highly desirable to which appropriate CSI feedback mechanism, otherwise, eNB schedulers may have can The very excessive risk of the serious multiple UE pairings interfering with each other and reducing overall network capacity of energy.
The basic thought of embodiment is to provide to have some noisy reference signals to UE when UE carries out CSI measurements.This The interference reference signal of sample is considered that UE should mitigate and disturbs the hypothesis for indicating its interference mitigation ability.These Reference signal can be similar to existing RS (reference signal) sequence, but embedded in CSI-RS, CRS or CSI-IM.Match somebody with somebody in advance Put interference reference signal no less important so that UE and eNB understand each other (for example, interference reference signal when be/at what Whether place and CSI report have any concrete meaning of interference elimination, when/how report returning result etc.).
Because UE will perform some eliminations of the interference in the RS (reference signal), so from the obtained synthesis of the RS CQI will consider the receiver efficiency of UE in interference elimination.If it should be appreciated that MU-MIMO will to be used for (than what is used on RS MU-MIMO is higher) UE pairings (for example, being matched as shown in Figure 1 to UE1 and UE2) when, eNB determines to use interference source MCS (modulation and encoding scheme), then can reduce the efficiency that UE eliminates the interference.Therefore, the interference in RS will be used as UE can be with With the efficiency reflected in the CQI that is reported come the upper limit that eliminates.
In order to reduce UE complexities, indicate that some high levels related to the RS disturbed comprising (insertion) configure to UE.
In one embodiment, provided to interference reference signal and be embedded in reference signaling RE (resource element) (for example, CRS Or CSI-RS).Existing CQI measurements for channel measurement depend on reference signal.Therefore, before channel measurement is carried out, the phase UE is hoped to remove interference reference signal.It is normal that the remainder (for example, due to quantization error) of reference signal is considered UE A part for the noise/interference measurement of progress.How to capture such residual interference by be UE problem of implementation.It is if traditional UE reuses the RS with embedded interference reference signal and is used for CSI report, then there may be some problems.Therefore, when Between interference reference signal is sent in subset is probably favourable so that within a period of time, do not interfering with the feelings of reference signal Under condition, signal is sent.
In another embodiment, provided to interference reference signal and be embedded in CSI-IM RE.In TM10, it is contemplated that UE will make Channel measurement is carried out with CSI-RS, and interferometry is carried out using CSI-IM.Therefore, in this case, UE can disappear first It is considered as noise and interference except the interference reference signal from CSI-IM RE, and by CSI-IM remainder.UE should try one's best will CSI-IM RE signal intensity minimizes.In CSI-IM RE, the suppressible signal intensities of UE are higher, what UE can be experienced Disturb smaller, and to eliminate ability stronger for the interference that has of UE.
In another embodiment, disturb reference signal can be with CRS the or CSI-RS RE of shared service cell, but disturb Reference signal can use the different CRS or CSI-RS sequences scrambled by different virtual subdistrict ID.
In another embodiment, reference signal is disturbed to carry out non-precoding by specific pre-coding matrix or prelist Code.Because this interference reference signal is precoding, so according to influence of the Wave beam forming to particular UE, reference signal is disturbed Can be weak or strong.Therefore, the interference reference signal of precoding will cause UE specifically to disturb elimination.
In another embodiment, (it will be carried out further the PDSCH transmission that interference reference signal can assume that with standard Design and explanation).As long as notifying time and the frequency resource of its transmission of UE, the PDSCH transmission design of various hypothesis is extensive 's.
In another embodiment, interference reference signal can contemplate existing reference signal (for example, CRS or CSI-RS RE) Benchmark (for example, odB, +/- 1dB) as power setting.Therefore, nominal reference signal can be indicated to UE and with insertion Disturb the power ratio between the new reference signal of reference signal so that network is appreciated that to eliminate how many interference and such as Where UE and interference UE between distribution power is disturbed.
In another embodiment, the example of interference reference signal can be indicated to UE so that what UE can be appropriate in export Know when UE eliminates interference reference signal while CQI.According to the sending method of interference reference signal, multiple design choosings be present Select:
One in 5 (or multiple) CSI-RS or CRS or CSI-IM signallings so that interference reference signal will not go out In each example of present CSI-RS/CRS transmission, to save UE power.
In embodiment, high-level signaling indicates when to UE and where will send and disturb reference signal.
In another embodiment, high level can be passed through by disturbing the configuration (for example, power, sequence, modulation etc.) of reference signal Signaling is configured.Such configuration is readily applicable to receiver types, for example, can be provided to CWIC receivers more Details, because CWIC receivers should eliminate more interference, or some receiver types be able to can enter than other receivers The more blind decodings of row.Some receivers can for example eliminate higher modulation, and therefore disturb to include and adjusted with 64QAM The sequence of system.
In another embodiment, it can be provided in CRS or CSI-RS or CSI-IM RE and be embedded in more than one interference Reference signal.However, this will increase the UE complexities for exporting CQI after cancellation.
In another embodiment, if UE is configured with interference reference signal, it assume that new report mechanism.At this In the case of kind, it can be reported using aperiodicity to trigger UE, to utilize this increasing of next example progress for disturbing reference signal Strong CQI, and hereafter report result to eNB.
UE will have the CSI information for assuming that interference eliminates based on interference reference signal to measure and report.
