Description

Method and device for determining and acquiring downlink control channel resources, base station and terminal
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for determining and acquiring downlink control channel resources, a storage medium, a base station, and a terminal.

The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3 GPP) standards organization will study how to deploy The Fifth-Generation mobile communications (5G for short) New wireless (New Radio, NR for short) system on The unlicensed spectrum, so as to achieve The purpose of fairly and effectively utilizing The unlicensed spectrum and increasing The data transmission rate of The NR system. The NR system uses unlicensed spectrum technology, also known as New radio access unlicensed (NR-U) technology.
There are three main ways of NR-U technology. A first NR cell of an unlicensed spectrum is used as a primary cell; the second is that a User Equipment (User Equipment, UE for short) accesses an unlicensed spectrum NR cell through a licensed spectrum Long Term Evolution (LTE) cell, and the third is that the UE accesses an unlicensed spectrum NR cell through a licensed spectrum NR cell. In the second and third modes, the UE and the NR base station (also referred to as a gNB) or an evolved Node B (eNB) may operate on the licensed spectrum and the unlicensed spectrum simultaneously through a carrier aggregation technique.
The existing 3GPP LTE system adopts Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) technology to communicate in unlicensed spectrum. Since the WiFi channel uses 20MHz and its integer multiple to communicate, LAA also requires that the transmission bandwidth is only 20MHz when there is WiFi, and the listening of LBT is also 20 MHz.
However, in NR, the Bandwidth range of a single Bandwidth Part (BWP) is large, and may be larger than 20MHz or smaller than 20 MHz. When CORESET spans multiple sub-band resources, there is no mature solution for how to perform downlink control channel transmission.

Detailed Description
As mentioned in the background, when BWP includes multiple sub-bands, there is still a lack of downlink control channel resource transmission scheme.
In the prior art, the LAA technology utilizes a Listen-Before-Talk (Listen-Before-Talk, LBT) mechanism to realize coexistence of different communication systems (e.g., an LTE system and a Wi-Fi system) in an unlicensed spectrum. The basic principle of the LBT mechanism is: before transmitting data in an unlicensed spectrum, a node determines whether a current Channel is available through a Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) mechanism based on an Energy detection (Energy detection) result. Some regional regulations specify an Energy detection threshold (Energy detection threshold), and if the node received Energy is higher than the specified Energy detection threshold, the channel is considered busy and the channel is not available.
The LAA downlink transmission supports two channel access procedures, Type 1(Type 1) channel access and Type 2(Type 2) channel access. Similarly, LAA uplink transmission also supports two channel access procedures: type 1 channel access and Type 2 channel access. Type 1 is a channel access based on category 4(Cat 4), and Type 2 is a channel access based on category 2(Cat 2).
Specifically, the Type 1 channel access procedure, that is, the random backoff LBT procedure of the non-fixed length contention window, may include the following steps: (1) while monitoring the channel, if the channel is idle within the defer duration, a backoff timer N may be initialized; (2) N-NinitAnd N isinitIs 0 to CWpThe random number of (2); (3) if N is present>0 and the base station decreases the value of the counter, then N-1, otherwise if N-0, stop counting or stop counting when the channel is busy.
The Type 2 channel access process is a random backoff LBT process of a fixed length contention window, and requires that at least the idle time of a detected channel is 25 microseconds (μ s) and the average energy is lower than an energy threshold, and downlink or uplink data can be sent on a channel transmitted by an unlicensed cell only when the transmission time is less than 1 ms.
Since the WiFi channel uses 20MHz and its integer multiple, LAA also requires that the transmission bandwidth can only be 20MHz when there is WiFi, and the listening of LBT is also 20 MHz. Therefore, the PUCCH and UL-SCH transmission bandwidths in LAA are allocated with staggered resources on the basis of 20 MHz.
The inventor of the present application finds, through research, that in a New Radio (NR, also referred to as New air interface) access system, a base station may configure a User Equipment (User Equipment, UE) in one or more Control Resource sets (CORESET), and detect a Downlink Control Information signaling (DCI) belonging to the base station according to a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI). For example, for a scenario without considering carrier aggregation, the UE operates on one carrier, and the base station may configure the UE to detect search spaces in one or more CORESET on the carrier, detect DCI belonging to the UE according to its RNTI, and then receive data or upload data according to the DCI.
A single DCI is carried by at least one Control Channel Element (CCE). The number of CCEs carrying a single DCI is called Aggregation Level (Aggregation Level), which may be 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. In the existing NR protocol, only a single CCE is supported to include 6 Resource Element Groups (REGs). Each REG refers to a single Resource Block (RB) occupying one Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol duration, that is, each REG contains 12 Resource Elements (REs) that are consecutive in the Frequency domain.
Further, NR introduces a new concept of "bandwidth Part (BWP)" to allow NR UE to access NR system using narrowband BWP and transmit service using broadband BWP. After each UE accesses the NR network, multiple BWPs may be configured by the network. Each BWP occupies a limited bandwidth and at least one BWP allows idle-state UEs to camp on. The idle UE may receive network information such as system messages and paging messages from the BWP, initiate random access through the BWP, establish Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection, enter a connection state from the idle state, and further establish a data Radio bearer. After the UE accesses the network, the network may configure other BWPs for the UE according to the UE capabilities, service requirements, and the like.
In NR, each BWP contains corresponding parameter configuration information. The UE acquires parameter configuration information of the BWP, and the BWP can be applied only after being activated by the network, such as the location of the Physical REsource block occupied by the BWP, and the COntrol REsource SET (CORESET) configuration therein, the Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) configuration, the Physical Uplink COntrol CHannel (PUCCH) configuration, the Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH) configuration, the Reference Signal (RS) configuration, the Random Access CHannel (RACH) configuration, and other Physical layer related parameter configuration information.
Further, referring to fig. 1, a corresponding relationship between a Common Resource Block (CRB) index, a PRB index in BWP, and CORESET is schematically shown. The CRB indexes may count from 0, with different CRB indexes representing different CRBs. Physical Resource Block (PRB) in BWP starts counting from 0. The CORESET includes 6 consecutive PRBs from the PRBs available for configuring the CORESET. In fig. 1, different CORESET are shown with different shading.
In authorized resources, in BWPiIndicating that one BWP, CORESET may be included in frequency

A bit (bit) bitmap indicates which 6 RBs within the bandwidth are allocated to the CORESET every 1 bit. Wherein the content of the first and second substances,
Figure BDA0001750702810000091
is BWPiThe number of middle RBs;
Figure BDA0001750702810000092
is the PRB start index in BWP with index i, i is a non-negative integer. Also, the high order bits in the bitmap correspond to RBs (e.g., 6 RBs) within BWP that are available for configuration as CORESET from low frequency. 1 in the bitmap represents that 6 RBs corresponding to the position are frequency domain resources of the CORESET, and 0 represents that 6 RBs corresponding to the position are not frequency domain resources of the CORESET.
Those skilled in the art understand that if the prior art is adopted to configure 6 RBs of the CORESET, the configuration needs to be limited within one subband resource, and cannot be configured across subbands. The following is illustrated by way of example in fig. 2. Fig. 2 schematically shows a corresponding relationship between CORESET and CRB index and Physical Resource Block (PRB) index in BWP. The CRB indexes may count from 0, with different CRB indexes representing different CRBs. When the BWP includes multiple subbands, the PRB indices in the BWP are continuously counted, and may still be counted starting from index 0. In fig. 2, BWP includes sub-band 1, sub-band 2, and sub-band 3. Subband 1 includes PRBs 0 through PRB97, subband 2 includes PRBs 98 through PRB101, and subband 3 includes PRB102 and PRB 103. In the prior art, the available CORESET can be formed from the PRB4 to the PRB96 belonging to the subband 1, but the available CORESET cannot be formed for the PRB96 and PRB97 belonging to the subband 1, the PRB98 to PRB100 belonging to the subband 2, and the PRB101 belonging to the subband 3 across 3 subbands.
Therefore, after successfully preempting the unlicensed spectrum resources, if the BWP includes multiple sub-bands, how to determine the downlink control channel resources becomes a technical problem that must be solved for downlink control information transmission.
In order to solve the foregoing technical problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining downlink control channel resources, where the method for determining downlink control channel resources includes: determining each sub-band resource of an available unlicensed frequency band, wherein the available unlicensed frequency band refers to an unlicensed frequency band available for a network and user equipment; determining indication information based on each subband resource, the indication information comprising at least one of: the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of the corresponding candidate PDCCHs.
Through the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, when part of subband resources in the unlicensed band BWP are unsuccessfully accessed to the channel, so that the BWP comprises a plurality of subbands with discontinuous spectrum resources, the UE can determine the PDCCH candidates through the indication information (for example, the frequency domain position of a control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of the corresponding PDCCH candidates) and provide reference for the blind detection PDCCH.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining downlink control channel resources according to an embodiment of the present invention. The determination method may be applied to the network side, for example, performed by a base station. Specifically, the method for determining downlink control channel resources may include the following steps:
step S301: determining each sub-band resource of an available unlicensed frequency band, wherein the available unlicensed frequency band refers to an unlicensed frequency band available for a network and user equipment;
step S302: determining indication information based on each subband resource, the indication information comprising at least one of: the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of the corresponding candidate PDCCHs.
More specifically, in step S301, if the network (e.g., NR base station) and the UE use the unlicensed frequency band to transmit data, the unlicensed frequency spectrum resources need to be preempted by the LBT mechanism before transmitting data. When the unlicensed spectrum resources are successfully preempted by the LBT mechanism, the network may determine available unlicensed spectrum resources that can be used to transmit data. The available unlicensed spectrum resources refer to unlicensed spectrum resources available for use by the network and the UE. As a variation, the UE may preempt the unlicensed spectrum resource through an LBT mechanism and report the preempted unlicensed spectrum resource, so that the base station on the network side may determine the available unlicensed spectrum resource according to the unlicensed spectrum resource reported by the UE.
In specific implementation, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) uses 20MHz or a frequency band resource of an integer multiple of 20MHz as a channel resource, so that a base station and/or a UE generally monitors the frequency band resource of 20MHz or an integer multiple of 20MHz when an LBT mechanism is used for competing for an unlicensed frequency spectrum resource. If the monitored spectrum resource is in an idle state, the base station and/or the UE can successfully preempt the spectrum resource based on an LBT mechanism; if the monitored spectrum resource is in a non-idle state, the base station and/or the UE cannot preempt the spectrum resource. When the base station obtains the unlicensed spectrum resources, the base station may determine available unlicensed spectrum resources that can be used to transmit data and may determine the available unlicensed spectrum resources as BWP resources for subsequent use.
The bandwidth of a single BWP in NR is large, possibly more than 20MHz, and possibly less than 20 MHz. When the unlicensed spectrum resource is used as the BWP resource, the base station may configure multiple sub-band resources for BWP through high-layer signaling (e.g., each sub-band resource may be 20MHz or an integer multiple of 20 MHz). In particular implementations, higher layer signaling may configure BWP with the number of subbands (e.g., Q subbands) included therein and indicate Q or (Q-1) PRB index values for indicating a subband starting PRB Pi. The PRB contained in the sub-band with index i is Pi~(Pi+1-1), i is a non-negative integer.
Specifically, in NR communication, the Resource grid (Resource grid) of a carrier is defined by

Sub-carriers and

In step S302, the indication information may be determined based on each subband resource, so that the UE may determine the DCI resource based on the indication information, so that the UE explicitly determines the time-frequency resource used when the BWP transmits the DCI across the unlicensed spectrum resources of the multiple subband resources, and provides a reference for the blind detection PDCCH, which is beneficial for the UE to blind detect the PDCCH.
In a specific implementation, the indication information may include one or more of the following items: the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the corresponding PDCCH (PDCCH candidate) number.
Wherein the CCE aggregation levels are in one-to-one correspondence with the number of the candidate PDCCHs corresponding to the CCE aggregation levels. Each PDCCH consists of one or more CCEs, each CCE consisting of 6 REGs. The number of CCEs constituting the PDCCH is indicated by an aggregation level.
As a non-limiting example, when the indication information includes frequency domain positions of the control resource sets in the respective subband resources, the frequency domain positions of the CORESET in the respective subband resources may be indicated by a bitmap (bitmap).
Concrete implementIn time, the base station may determine the frequency domain position of each CORESET for the UE based on the subband resources in the BWP, and first, the base station may determine the starting PRB and the number of PRBs of each subband resource in each BWP of the UE. Wherein different BWPs are distinguished by different indices. Assuming BWPi(i is a non-negative integer) represents one of the BWPs, then BWPiPRB n in (1)PRBAnd CRB nCRBIn a relationship of

Wherein
Figure BDA0001750702810000122
Is relative CRB0, BWPiThe initial number of CRBs in (a).
Thereafter, the bit length of the bitmap may be determined based on the starting PRB and the number of PRBs of each subband resource. In particular, the number of bits for indicating the CORESET may be determined for each subband resource contained in the BWP. Assume that the UE has multiple BWPs, one of which (e.g., BWP)i), BWPiContaining Y subbands, the bit length of the bitmap may be determined using the following equation:
Figure BDA0001750702810000123
wherein len _ bitmap represents a bit length of the bitmap,
Figure BDA0001750702810000124
is BWPiThe index of y is the number of PRBs in the subband,
Figure BDA0001750702810000125
is BWPiThe index in (1) is the PRB starting index of the subband of Y, i and Y are non-negative integers, and Y is a positive integer.
As a non-limiting example, the bits in the bitmap may each indicate which RBs (e.g., 6 RBs) within a subband are allocated to CORESET. "1" in the bitmap represents that 6 RBs corresponding to the position are frequency domain resources of CORESET, and 0 represents that 6 RBs corresponding to the position are not frequency domain resources of CORESET. In addition, the PRBs (e.g., 6 PRBs) available for configuring CORESET in the subband resources are determined in order from low frequency to high frequency, the high bits of the bitmap correspond to the 6 low frequency PRBs available for configuring CORESET in the subband resources, and the low bits of the bitmap correspond to the 6 high frequency PRBs available for configuring CORESET in the subband resources.
As a variation, a "1" in the bitmap represents that 6 RBs (e.g., 6 PRBs) corresponding to a position are not frequency domain resources of CORESET, and a 0 represents that 6 PRBs corresponding to a position are frequency domain resources of CORESET. In addition, the PRBs available for configuring the CORESET in the subband resources are determined in an order from high frequency to low frequency, and the high bits of the bitmap correspond to the 6 low-frequency PRBs available for configuring the CORESET in the subband resources, and the low bits of the bitmap correspond to the 6 high-frequency PRBs available for configuring the CORESET in the subband resources.
Those skilled in the art understand that in practical applications, the bitmap may also be in one-to-one correspondence with RBs that can be used to configure the CORESET in other manners, and details are not described here.
As yet another non-limiting example, when the indication information includes REG numbers in the respective sub-band resources, a plurality of REG bundles may be determined based on the REG numbers. In specific implementation, if the CORESET includes multiple subband resources, each subband resource includes multiple PRBs, the base station may number REGs in each subband resource PRB, and determine multiple REG bundles based on the REG numbers in each subband resource.
Further, among the plurality of REG bundles, one of the REG bundles (e.g., REG bundle with index i) may contain REGs with the number of REGs as

Wherein the content of the first and second substances,

In particular, the amount of the solvent to be used,

Figure BDA0001750702810000135
represents the number of symbols, usually referred to as OFDM symbols, contained in the control resource set CORESET.
As still another non-limiting example, the indication information may include CCE aggregation levels in respective subband resources and corresponding PDCCH candidate numbers. When the UE knows the aggregation levels of the CCEs, the number of PDCCH candidates corresponding to each aggregation level can be obtained. Specifically, on the premise that the UE Identity (ID) is known, the initial CCE index may be calculated according to a CCE initial index formula, and since the CCE indexes are consecutive, all PDCCH candidates may be known.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring downlink control channel resources according to an embodiment of the present invention. The obtaining method may be used on the side of the user equipment, and specifically may include the following steps:
step S401, receiving indication information sent by a network, where the indication information at least includes one of the following items: the frequency domain position of a control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of candidate PDCCHs corresponding to the CCE aggregation level;
step S402, one or more of the following items are extracted from the indication information: the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of the corresponding candidate PDCCHs.
Specifically, in step S401, the UE may receive, from the network, indication information sent by the network, where the indication information may include one or more of the following: the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of the corresponding candidate PDCCHs.
In a specific implementation, when the indication information includes a frequency domain position of a control resource set in each subband resource, the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource may be indicated by using a bitmap.
In step S402, the UE may extract information from the indication information to obtain a frequency domain position of a control resource set in each subband resource and/or a REG number in each subband resource and/or a CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and a number of PDCCH candidates corresponding thereto.
Specifically, when the indication information includes frequency domain positions of the control resource sets in the respective subband resources, the UE may determine the frequency domain positions of the control resource sets in the respective subband resources according to respective bit values in the bitmap. For example, the UE and the base station have a bit value of "1" to indicate available CORESET, and a bit value of "0" to indicate unavailable CORESET, and after receiving the indication information, the UE may determine the frequency domain position of CORESET according to the bit value.
As a variation, when the indication information includes REG numbers in the respective sub-band resources, the UE may determine a plurality of REG bundles based on the REG numbers in the respective sub-band resources. Specifically, among the REGs, the REG bundle with index i includes REG number of i

Wherein the content of the first and second substances,
Figure BDA0001750702810000142
and the quantity of REGs of a control resource set CORESET in the subband resource sub-band is represented, L represents the quantity of REGs contained in the REG bundle with the index i, i is a non-negative integer, and L is a positive integer.
As still another variation, the UE may obtain CCE aggregation levels in each subband resource and the number of PDCCH candidates corresponding to the CCE aggregation levels from the indication information.
Those skilled in the art understand that, in implementation, the base station may send one or more of the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource and the number of PDCCH candidates corresponding thereto to the UE as the indication information. When the indication information comprises a plurality of items of information, the UE can be quickly informed of the information such as CORESET, REG bundle, CCE aggregation level and PDCCH candidate number.
Those skilled in the art understand that the steps S401 to S402 can be regarded as execution steps corresponding to the steps S301 to S302 in the embodiment shown in fig. 3, and the two steps are complementary in terms of specific implementation principle and logic. Therefore, for the method for acquiring the downlink control channel resource on the user equipment side, reference may be made to the related description of the embodiment shown in fig. 3, which is not described herein again.
As described above, according to the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, when the BWP includes multiple subband resources, the UE may determine the PDCCH candidate resource according to the indication information (e.g., the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource, the REG number in each subband resource, the CCE aggregation level in each subband resource, and the number of PDCCH candidates corresponding to the CCE aggregation level), so as to blindly detect the PDCCH.

As a non-limiting example, when the indication information includes frequency domain positions of control resource sets in respective subband resources, the frequency domain positions of the control resource sets in the respective subband resources are indicated with a bitmap.
Wherein the frequency domain position of the control resource set in each subband resource may be determined based on: determining the starting PRB and the number of PRBs of each subband resource in each bandwidth part of the user equipment; determining the bit length of the bitmap based on the starting PRB and the number of PRBs of each subband resource; determining respective bit values in a bitmap to indicate frequency domain locations of sets of control resources in the respective subband resources.
