Description

Uplink power synchronization method, access network equipment and terminal

Technical Field

The embodiment of the invention relates to the field of data communication, in particular to an uplink power synchronization method, access network equipment and a terminal.

Background

The HSUPA high speed up link packet access technology is an up high speed packet service access technology based on WCDMA wideband code division multiple access technology. In the research of 3GPP R12 release, it is proposed to change an uplink secondary carrier to an uplink secondary carrier dedicated to support high-rate transmission based on an uplink dual-carrier configuration, and in order to reduce the delay and signaling overhead of secondary carrier activation, the secondary carrier needs to be kept in an activated state all the time. Meanwhile, in order to reduce the interference between UE user equipment, a TDM time division multiplexing scheduling mode is adopted for uplink, only one UE or a small number of UEs are allowed to carry out uplink transmission in one TTI transmission time interval, the UE which is not scheduled for uplink data transmission does not send a physical control channel special for a control channel DPCCH, and DPCCH information is sent only when E-DCH enhanced dedicated channel data is sent on an uplink auxiliary carrier, so that the mutual interference between the UEs is reduced. This creates a problem to be solved: when a certain UE is scheduled to transmit uplink data, because a pre/post amble/postamble of a DPCCH channel is not transmitted, a quick power synchronization method is needed to ensure that the UE obtains uplink power synchronization in a short time and meet the requirement of receiving the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio of an uplink receiving signal.

At present, generally, when UE does not send E-DCH data, the DPCCH channel is not sent, when UE sends data, the sending power of the initial DPCCH is adjusted according to the interval time between two times of dispatching of the UE, and the access network equipment feeds back a sending power adjustment command to enable the UE to add an interval offset with a fixed step length on the basis of the sending power of the previous DPCCH for adjustment.

However, in practical applications, the feedback Transmit Power adjustment command of the access network device causes the UE to use the Transmit Power of the DPCCH channel scheduled at the previous time plus a bias of a fixed step size, which cannot accurately estimate the required Transmit Power, but only roughly perform initial Power estimation and cannot feed back to the UE accurate Power Control adjustment information, and the UE still needs to perform adjustment by receiving TPC (Transmit Power Control) information fed back by the Node B (3G mobile base station), so that the UE needs to reach the expected received signal to interference plus noise ratio (sinr) after a long Power Control adjustment convergence time.

Claims

1. An uplink power synchronization method, comprising:

the terminal judges whether the current sending power adjustment command is the same as the last sending power adjustment command; if not, the terminal obtains the current transmission power adjustment step length according to the last transmission power adjustment step length;

the terminal updates the last sending power according to the obtained current sending power adjustment step length to obtain the current sending power;

if not, the terminal obtains the current transmission power adjustment step length according to the last transmission power adjustment step length, and the method comprises the following steps:

taking the (N + 1) th step value in a preset adjustment step sequence as the current transmission power adjustment step, wherein the nth step value in the adjustment step sequence is the last transmission power adjustment step, and the (N + 1) th step value is less than or equal to the nth step value, or

Taking the transmission power adjustment step value corresponding to half of the last transmission power adjustment step as the current transmission power adjustment step, or

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the initial transmission power adjustment step size is preset by the terminal when the last transmission power adjustment step size is the initial transmission power adjustment step size.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein when the last transmission power adjustment step size is an initial transmission power adjustment step size, the initial transmission power adjustment step size is obtained by the terminal according to a parameter issued by an access network device.
