Description

Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method for determining a beam, a terminal, and a network device.
Background
In the current 3GPP standardization process, a multi-antenna system adopts a mixed architecture of a digital domain and an analog domain. The analog beams are generally selected based on a Beam scanning (Beam scanning) technology, and a Beam with the strongest RSRP is selected as an optimal analog Beam by measuring Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) of the analog beams, so as to determine digital beams (such as PMI feedback) and perform data transceiving.
Hybrid beamforming techniques are employed in 5G NR systems. The base station can sequentially determine the analog beam and the digital beam for communication according to the information fed back by the user.
In the prior art, a method for a base station to determine an analog beam includes: the base station configures a plurality of analog beams, and sends a reference signal in a beam scanning manner, a user measures Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) of the analog beams, selects a beam with the strongest RSRP from the analog beams configured by the base station as an analog beam, and performs digital beam forming (for example, digital beam forming is performed by a TDD system in LTE according to channel information reported by the user) or digital codebook selection (for example, a digital beam forming vector is selected by an FDD system in LTE according to a PMI fed back by the user) after the analog beam is determined. The effect of digital beamforming is therefore limited by the analog beam selected.
As shown in fig. 1, in the prior art, when the intensity of the analog beam a is stronger, the analog beam a is directly selected, and actually, the overall intensity of the analog beam B and the digital beam B therein is stronger than the overall intensity of the analog beam a and the digital beam a, the optimal beam should be the analog beam B and the digital beam B.
In particular, when a user is in the side lobes of two adjacent analog beams, the intensity of the analog beam has a relatively limited effect on the user, but the gain of the digital beam is now more pronounced.
The gain of beam forming is determined by the analog beam and the digital beam together, and if the analog beam and the digital beam are selected separately, namely the digital beam is determined after the analog beam is determined only according to the RSRP of the analog beam, it is difficult to ensure that the final beam forming effect is optimal.
