As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present specification provides an antenna switching transmission method 100 for SRS, where the method 100 may be executed by a terminal device, and includes the following steps:
s110: transmitting power saving request information.
In this specification, the terminal device generally supports multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS, for example, the terminal device supports one or more of the following six groups:
a first group: 1 transmit antenna 2 receive antenna 1T2R and 2 transmit antenna 4 receive antenna 2T 4R;
second group: 1T2R and 1 transmit antenna 4 receive antenna 1T 4R;
third group: 1T2R and the transmit antenna are equal to the receive antenna T ═ R;
and a fourth group: 1T4R and T ═ R;
and a fifth group: 1T2R, 1T4R and T ═ R; and the number of the first and second groups,
a sixth group: 1T2R, 1T4R, and 2T 4R.
Wherein, the letter T in the antenna switching transmission modes for the SRS indicates transmission, and the number before the letter T represents the number of the transmission antennas; the letter R indicates reception, and the number immediately before the letter R indicates the number of receiving antennas; T-R indicates that the number of transmission antennas is equal to the number of reception antennas.
The above chinese language in front of the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS is merely explanatory words, for example, "1 transmit antenna 2 receive antenna" in front of 1T2R is an explanation for 1T2R, and "2 transmit antenna 4 receive antenna" in front of 2T4R is an explanation for 2T 4R; etc., and do not constitute a specific limitation.
Among the plurality of antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS supported by the terminal device, the number of transmission antennas has a minimum value, and the number of reception antennas corresponding to the minimum transmission antenna also has a minimum value.
For example, the multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS supported by the terminal device are the first group, that is, 1T2R and 2T4R, where the number of transmission antennas in 1T2R is 1, and is less than 2 of the number of transmission antennas in 2T4R, that is, the number of transmission antennas in 1T2R is the smallest.
For another example, the multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS supported by the terminal device are the sixth group, that is, 1T2R, 1T4R, and 2T4R, where the number of transmit antennas of 1T2R and 1T4R is the minimum; 1T2R minimizes not only the number of transmit antennas, but also the number of receive antennas. In this specification, since the terminal device supports multiple antenna switching transmission modes for SRS, the terminal device may send power saving request information to the network device through step S110 when the power consumption is low or the terminal device desires to be in the energy saving mode.
After receiving the power saving request information, the network device may send SRS configuration information to the terminal device, so as to configure an antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS and a corresponding SRS resource for the terminal device, where the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS configured for the terminal device by the network device is one of multiple antenna switching transmission modes for the SRS supported by the terminal device.
S120: receiving SRS configuration information, wherein the SRS configuration information indicates an antenna switching transmission mode for SRS of the terminal equipment and SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to the antenna switching transmission mode for SRS.
The SRS configuration information generally includes antenna switching transmission mode information for SRS, configured by the network device for the terminal device, and SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to the configured antenna switching transmission mode for SRS, where the SRS resource set configuration information includes an SRS resource set and SRS resources in the SRS resource set, so that the terminal device can send corresponding SRS resources based on the configured antenna switching transmission mode for SRS after receiving the SRS configuration information.
For example, the terminal device supports multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS, which are 1T2R, 1T4R, and 2T4R, and the SRS configuration information indicates the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS, which is 1T2R, of the terminal device and the SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T2R, so that the terminal device can transmit the corresponding SRS resource through the antenna switching transmission scheme of 1T 2R; for another example, the SRS configuration information indicates the terminal device's antenna switching transmission scheme 1T4R for SRS and the SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T4R, so that the terminal device can transmit the corresponding SRS resource through the antenna switching transmission scheme of 1T 4R.
According to the method for indicating the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS, provided by the embodiment of the specification, the terminal device supports various antenna switching transmission modes for the SRS, the terminal device can send power saving request information to the network device when the electric quantity is insufficient or the terminal device is expected to be in an energy saving mode, the network device can configure the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS and corresponding SRS resource set configuration information for the terminal device, the problem that the terminal device cannot dynamically adjust the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS according to the electric quantity is solved, and therefore the communication effectiveness is improved.
Considering that the terminal device may save power by turning off part of the transmitting antennas or the receiving antennas when the power is low and insufficient or the terminal device desires to be in the power saving mode, in step S120 of the above embodiment, preferably, the SRS configuration information indicates the number of transmitting antennas used by the terminal device for the antenna switching transmission scheme of the SRS, and may be the smallest number of transmitting antennas in the multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for the SRS, so that the effects of saving power consumption of the terminal device and increasing the standby time can be achieved.
For example, the terminal device supports antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS of 1T2R, 1T4R, and 2T4R, the minimum number of transmit antennas is 1, and the network device configures the terminal device with an antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS of 1T2R or 1T4R, because 1T2R and 1T4R have smaller transmit antennas than 2T4R, the power consumption of the terminal device can be reduced, and the standby time can be increased.
Considering that, among the multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS supported by the terminal device, the number of receiving antennas matching the minimum number of antenna transmissions may be multiple, for example, the multiple antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS supported by the terminal device are 1T2R, 1T4R and 2T4R, the minimum number of antenna transmissions is 1, and the number of receiving antennas corresponding to the minimum number of transmitting antennas is 2 and 4.
In order to further reduce the power consumption of the terminal device, it is preferable that, if the number of receiving antennas matching the minimum number of antenna transmissions is plural, the number of receiving antennas of the antenna switching transmission scheme configured for the terminal device by the network device is the smallest one of the number of receiving antennas matching the minimum number of transmitting antennas. . Then, in the above example, the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS configured for the terminal device by the network device is 1T2R, because the number of receiving antennas is smaller for 1T2R than for 1T 4R; 1T2R has a smaller number of transmitting antennas and a smaller number of receiving antennas than 2T4R, and can further achieve the effect of saving electric power.
In the above several embodiments, it is mentioned that the terminal device supports multiple antenna switching transmission modes for SRS, and optionally, before step S110 in the above several embodiments, the method may further include the following steps:
the capability information is transmitted.
In an embodiment, the capability information sent by the terminal device includes one or more of multiple antenna switching transmission modes for SRS supported by the terminal device. The terminal equipment is convenient for the network equipment to determine the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS supported by the terminal equipment by sending the capability information to the network equipment, so that the terminal equipment can be quickly configured with the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS after receiving the power saving request information.
Preferably, the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS configured by the network device for the terminal device may be one with the smallest number of transmit antennas in the antenna switching transmission schemes for SRS included in the capability information. Further preferably, the number of reception antennas used for the SRS antenna switching transmission scheme, which is configured for the terminal device by the network device, is the smallest one of the plurality of reception antennas matching the smallest number of transmission antennas. Therefore, the power consumption of the terminal equipment can be saved, and the standby time is prolonged.
In another embodiment, the capability information sent by the terminal device includes an antenna architecture supported by the terminal device, and the network device can determine an antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS, which is supported by the terminal device, according to the antenna architecture supported by the terminal device. The terminal equipment is convenient for the network equipment to determine the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS supported by the terminal equipment by sending the capability information to the network equipment, so that the terminal equipment can be quickly configured with the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS after receiving the power saving request information.
Preferably, the antenna switching transmission mode configured by the network device for the terminal device and used for the SRS may be one with the smallest number of transmit antennas in the antenna switching transmission mode used for the SRS and corresponding to an antenna architecture supported by the terminal device. Further preferably, the number of receiving antennas of the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS, configured for the terminal device by the network device, is the smallest one of the number of receiving antennas matching the smallest number of transmitting antennas, so that power consumption of the terminal device can be saved, and standby time can be increased.
For the antenna architecture supported by the terminal device, reference may be made to fig. 2 to 4, and fig. 2 to 4 list three antenna architectures supported by the terminal device.
In fig. 2, a power amplifier 1 (or a first power amplifier, and the following similar terms) is connected with 2 antenna elements, see antenna 1 and antenna 2; the power amplifier 2 (or called a second power amplifier, the same applies to follow-up operations) is connected with 2 antenna elements, see antenna 3 and antenna 4, the 2 antenna elements connected with the power amplifier 1 are different from the 2 antenna elements connected with the power amplifier 2, and based on the antenna architecture shown in fig. 2, the network device can determine a plurality of antenna switching transmission modes for SRS supported by the terminal device.
In fig. 3, a power amplifier 1 is connected to 4 antenna elements, see antenna 1, antenna 2, antenna 3 and antenna 4; the power amplifier 2 is connected with 4 antenna elements, which are the same as the antenna 1, the antenna 2, the antenna 3 and the antenna 4, the 4 antenna elements connected with the power amplifier 1 are the same as the 4 antenna elements connected with the power amplifier 2, and based on the antenna architecture shown in fig. 3, the network device can determine a plurality of antenna switching transmission modes for SRS supported by the terminal device; or
In fig. 4, a power amplifier 1 is connected to 4 antenna elements, see antenna 1, antenna 2, antenna 3 and antenna 4; the power amplifier 2 is connected to 2 antenna elements of the 4 antenna elements, see the antenna 3 and the antenna 4, and based on the antenna architecture shown in fig. 4, the network device can determine multiple antenna switching transmission modes for SRS supported by the terminal device.
Preferably, if the antenna architecture supported by the terminal device is the antenna architecture shown in fig. 2, that is, the power amplifier 1 is connected with 2 antenna elements, and the power amplifier 2 is connected with 2 antenna elements, the number of SRS resources in an SRS resource set in the SRS resource set configuration information in one time slot is less than 3, so that the SRS resources sent by the terminal device can be completed in one time slot, which can avoid the problem caused by inconsistency of understanding of sending time of SRS resources between the network device and the terminal device, and is convenient for improving the transmission efficiency of SRS resources.
For example, the antenna switching transmission mode configured by the network device for the SRS for the terminal device is 1T4R, and the number of SRS resource sets corresponding to 1T4R is 2, then the number of SRS resources in one slot of the 2 SRS resource sets is less than 3, and optionally, each of the two SRS resource sets includes different 2 SRS resources.
In an actual application process, in step S110, the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device may further include an antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS that the terminal device expects to use, so that the terminal device may directly configure the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS that the terminal device expects to use for the terminal device after receiving the power saving request information.
For example, if the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device includes 1T1R, the network device may instruct the terminal device that the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS is 1T1R and the SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T 1R.
For another example, if the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device includes 1T2R, the network device may instruct the terminal device that the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS is 1T2R and the SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T 2R.
For another example, if the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device includes 1T4R, the network device may instruct the terminal device that the antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS is 1T4R and the SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T 4R.
For another example, the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device includes 1T2R and 1T4R, where 1T2R and 1T4R may both be referred to as antenna switching transmission methods for SRS that the terminal device desires to use, and then the network device may indicate that the antenna switching transmission method for SRS of the terminal device is 1T2R and SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T 2R; alternatively, the network device may indicate that the terminal device has an antenna switching transmission scheme for SRS of 1T4R and SRS resource set configuration information corresponding to 1T 4R.
In an actual application process, in step S110, the power saving request information sent by the terminal device to the network device may further include SRS resource set information, where the SRS resource set information corresponds to one or more of the multiple antenna switching transmission manners for SRS, for example, the SRS resource set information corresponds to 1T 2R; for another example, the SRS resource set information corresponds to 1T2R and 2T 4R. In this way, after receiving the power saving request information, the network device may determine the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS corresponding to the SRS resource set information, where the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS corresponding to the SRS resource set information may be one or more.
The SRS resource set information includes: an SRS resource set identification; or the SRS resource set identification and the SRS resource information identification contained in each SRS resource set.
If the antenna switching transmission modes for the SRS corresponding to the SRS resource set information are multiple, the network device may select one of the multiple antenna switching transmission modes for the SRS and configure the selected antenna switching transmission mode to the terminal device; if the antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS corresponding to the SRS resource set information is one, the network device may configure the corresponding antenna switching transmission mode for the SRS to the terminal device.
For example, when the terminal device is low in power, power saving request information is sent to the corresponding network device, where the power saving request information indicates aperiodic SRS resource sets (identities) N and M supported by the terminal device, where resource set N includes 3 different SRS resources, resource set M includes 1 SRS resource, and SRS resource sets N and M correspond to 1T 4R. The network device configures the terminal device with an SRS switching transmission mode 1T4R for the SRS, and a corresponding SRS resource set and an SRS resource corresponding to each SRS resource set.
For another example, when the terminal device is low in power, power saving request information indicating aperiodic SRS resource sets (identities) N and M supported by the terminal device is transmitted to the corresponding network device, where resource set N includes 3 different SRS resources, resource set M includes 1 SRS resource, and SRS resource sets N and M correspond to 1T2R and 1T 4R. The network device may configure the terminal device with an SRS switching transmission mode of 1T4R, and corresponding SRS resource sets and SRS resources corresponding to each SRS resource set; or, the network device may further configure the terminal device to use the SRS with the antenna switching transmission mode 1T4R, and the corresponding SRS resource set and the SRS resource corresponding to each SRS resource set.
