Background
In a 5G (5th-generation, fifth generation mobile communication technology) system, if an unauthorized frequency band is to be used for data transmission, a signal transmitting end needs to satisfy the usage rule of the unauthorized frequency band. For an unlicensed frequency band, a transmitting end needs to monitor whether the frequency band is occupied (or idle) before transmitting a signal, and if the frequency band is not occupied (or idle), the transmitting end may transmit the signal. The procedure of the resource idle detection is LBT (Listen Before Talk) procedure.
For example, in the random access procedure of the unlicensed frequency band, when determining available random access resources, a User Equipment (UE) needs to perform resource vacancy detection (i.e., LBT) on multiple resource locations. Thus, the random access procedure of the unlicensed frequency band requires the UE to go through multiple LBT procedures. For another example, in the uplink (or downlink) scheduling request process of the unlicensed frequency band, the communication device (UE or network side device) also needs to go through multiple LBT processes.
As can be seen, in the communication process of the unlicensed frequency band, the communication device needs to perform multiple LBT processes, so that the communication device needs to consume more electric energy in the resource idle detection of the unlicensed frequency band.

The wireless communication system may be a 5G system, an Evolved Long Term Evolution (lte) system, or a subsequent lte communication system.

Fig. 1 is a structural diagram of a signal transmission system based on an unlicensed frequency band according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, including a user equipment 11 and a network side device 12, where the user equipment 11 may be a mobile communication device, for example: the user equipment may be a Mobile phone, a Tablet Personal Computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a Laptop Computer (Laptop Computer), a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a Wearable Device (Wearable Device), or the like, and it should be noted that the specific type of the user equipment 11 is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.

Before the embodiments of the present invention are specifically described, NR-U (New RAT Un-licensed, New air interface-unlicensed) is briefly introduced as follows.
In the 5G system, if an unlicensed frequency band is used for data transmission and reception, a transmitting end of a signal needs to satisfy a usage rule of the unlicensed frequency band. For an unlicensed frequency band, a transmitting end needs to monitor whether the frequency band is occupied (or idle) before transmitting a signal, and if the frequency band is not occupied (or idle), the transmitting end may transmit the signal. The above-mentioned resource idle detection procedure is an LBT procedure.
As can be seen from the above, in the communication process of the unlicensed frequency band, the communication device needs to perform multiple LBT processes, which results in that the communication device needs to consume more electric energy in the resource idle detection of the unlicensed frequency band.
In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a signal transmission system based on an unlicensed frequency band as shown in fig. 1, and provides a signal transmission method based on an unlicensed frequency band applied to the signal transmission system, as follows:
under the condition that the target transmission resource meets a preset condition, the target transmission resource is directly used for transmitting the current signal; wherein the preset condition at least comprises: and within a preset time before the current signal is transmitted, the target transmission resource transmits a previous signal.
The target transmission resource is a transmission resource belonging to an unlicensed frequency band.
The target transmission resource is a frequency domain resource, and the target transmission resource can transmit different signals in different time domains (or different time nodes). That is, the previous signal and the current signal are transmitted on different time domains of the same frequency domain resource (i.e., the target transmission resource).
The above-mentioned predetermined time before the transmission of the current signal may be understood as a short time before the scheduled transmission time of the current signal, for example, 16 microseconds before the scheduled transmission time of the current signal. The preset time can be configured by the network side device or can be agreed by a protocol.
The transmission resource belonging to the unlicensed frequency band is within a preset time before the current signal is transmitted, and if the previous signal is transmitted, the transmission resource can be considered to meet the preset condition. When the transmission resource meets the preset condition, the transmission resource may be understood as "a transmission resource not used for LBT", and the current signal may be transmitted without passing through the LBT process and directly using the transmission resource to transmit the current signal.
It will be appreciated that since the transmission resource transmits a preceding signal within a short time before transmitting a current signal, the transmission resource is not available for a short time or is less likely to be available for a short time. Thus, the transmission resource may be considered as an idle resource when transmitting the current signal. Thus, the communication device can directly use the transmission resource for signaling without LBT of the transmission resource.
In the embodiment of the invention, in a short time before the communication equipment transmits signals, if a certain transmission resource belonging to an unauthorized frequency band transmits a previous signal, the communication equipment can directly use the transmission resource to transmit the signals without carrying out LBT on the transmission resource. Therefore, the frequency of LBT of the communication equipment in the communication process of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced, and the electric energy consumed by the communication equipment in the resource idle detection of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a signal transmission method based on an unlicensed frequency band according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the signal transmission method based on the unlicensed frequency band is applied to a UE or a network side device, and the method includes the following steps:
step 201: under the condition that the target transmission resource meets a preset condition, the target transmission resource is directly used for transmitting the current signal; wherein the preset condition at least comprises: and within a preset time before the current signal is transmitted, the target transmission resource transmits a previous signal.
The signal transmission method of the embodiment of the invention is not only suitable for the application scene that the UE uses the resources of the unauthorized frequency band to transmit the uplink signal, but also suitable for the application scene that the network side equipment uses the resources of the unauthorized frequency band to transmit the downlink signal.
When the current signal is an uplink signal, the previous signal may be an uplink signal or a downlink signal. Correspondingly, when the current signal is a downlink signal, the previous signal may be an uplink signal or a downlink signal.
As shown in fig. 3, at t2In a transmission resource A and a transmission resource B corresponding to the time node, the transmission resource A is at t1The time node transmits a preceding signal, t1To t2Is less than or equal to the preset time, then at t2In the time node, the transmission resource a may be considered as a transmission resource that is not used for LBT, and the communication device may preferentially select the transmission resource a and directly use the transmission resource a for signal transmission.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the communication equipment needs to transmit the current signal at a certain time node, the communication equipment can randomly select a transmission resource from the transmission resources corresponding to the time node, judge whether the selected transmission resource meets the preset condition or not, and if so, directly use the transmission resource to transmit the signal; otherwise, LBT is carried out on the transmission resource, if LBT is successful, the transmission resource is used for transmitting signals, otherwise, the selection is continued from the rest transmission resources, and the process is repeated.
In terms of statistics, the signal transmission process may reduce, at a certain probability, the number of times that the communication device performs LBT in the communication process of the unlicensed frequency band, so that the power consumed by the communication device in the resource idle detection of the unlicensed frequency band may be reduced at a certain probability.
The above signal transmission process is only an example, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit this.
In the embodiment of the invention, in a short time before the communication equipment transmits signals, if a certain transmission resource belonging to an unauthorized frequency band transmits a previous signal, the communication equipment can directly use the transmission resource to transmit the signals without carrying out LBT on the transmission resource. Therefore, the frequency of LBT of the communication equipment in the communication process of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced, and the electric energy consumed by the communication equipment in the resource idle detection of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the establishment of the preset condition may be only related to the time of signal transmission, that is, as long as the target transmission resource transmits a previous signal within the preset time before the current signal is transmitted, it is considered that the target transmission resource does not need to perform the LBT operation.
However, in consideration of reliability of transmission, importance of transmission, and the like, the specific embodiment of the present invention may also limit the preset condition by using an additional parameter, so as to meet the service requirement. As in the specific embodiment of the present invention, the preset condition may be further constrained by the transmission parameter of the previous signal and/or the transmission parameter of the current signal, that is: the preset condition may also be related to a transmission parameter of a previous signal and/or a transmission parameter of the current signal.
Specifically, the transmission parameter of the previous signal may include at least one of the following parameters:
a transmission direction parameter, a channel type parameter, a signal type parameter, a transmission frequency band parameter, a transmission frequency point parameter, a bearing beam parameter, a bandwidth part identification parameter and a cell identification parameter;
the transmission parameter of the current signal may include at least one of:
the system comprises a transmission direction parameter, a channel type parameter, a signal type parameter, a transmission frequency band parameter, a transmission frequency point parameter, a bearing beam parameter, a bandwidth part identification parameter and a cell identification parameter.
The transmission parameters of the prior signals can be configured by network side equipment or agreed by a protocol; the transmission parameters of the current signal can also be configured by the network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
The transmission direction parameter may represent uplink transmission or downlink transmission.
For example, based on the consideration of transmission reliability, the network side device may configure the following preset conditions: and when the transmission direction of the current signal is uplink transmission, the transmission direction of the previous signal is downlink transmission, and the target transmission resource transmits the previous signal within a preset time before the current signal is transmitted.
The channel type parameter may characterize an uplink channel or a downlink channel.
For example, the Uplink Channel may include any one of PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel), PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), and SRS (Sounding reference signal).
For the Downlink Channel, any one of a pdcch (Physical Downlink Control Channel) refers to a Physical Downlink Control Channel), a PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), a CSI-RS (Channel State Information-Reference Signal), and an SSB (synchronization Signal Block) may be included.
In this embodiment, the channel type parameter may be flexibly configured or agreed according to the specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signal.
The signal type parameter may represent an uplink signal or a downlink signal.
The transmission band parameter may represent specific band information, for example, the transmission band of the previous signal (or the current signal) is 20 MHz; the transmission band parameter may also characterize the relation of the previous signal and the current signal on the transmission band, for example, the transmission band of the previous signal is the same as the transmission band of the current signal.
For example, the network side device may configure the following preset conditions: the transmission band of the previous signal (or the current signal) satisfies the transmission band parameter, and the target transmission resource transmits the previous signal within a preset time before the current signal is transmitted.
In this embodiment, the transmission band parameters may be flexibly configured or agreed according to specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signals.
The transmission frequency point parameters may represent specific frequency point information, for example, the transmission frequency point of a previous signal (or a current signal) is 2 GHz; the transmission frequency point parameter may also represent a relationship between the previous signal and the current signal on the transmission frequency point, for example, the transmission frequency point of the previous signal is the same as the transmission frequency point of the current signal.
In this embodiment, the transmission frequency point parameters may be flexibly configured or agreed according to specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission, importance of transmission signals, and the like.
The bearer beam parameter may represent specific beam identification information, for example, the bearer beam of the previous signal (or the current signal) is a beam indicated by a combination of the CSI-RS identifier and/or the SSB identifier; the bearer beam parameter may also characterize a relationship between the previous signal and the current signal on the bearer beam, e.g., the bearer beam of the previous signal is the same as the bearer beam of the current signal.
In this embodiment, the bearer beam parameters may be flexibly configured or agreed according to specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signals.
The bandwidth part BWP (bandwidth part) identification parameter may represent specific BWP identification information; the BWP identification parameter may also characterize the relationship of the previous signal to the current signal over BWP, e.g., the previous signal transmitted BWP is the same as the current signal transmitted BWP.
In this embodiment, the BWP identification parameters may be flexibly configured or agreed according to specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signal.
The cell identity parameter may represent a specific cell identity, for example, the cell identity of a previous signal (or a current signal) is cell 1; the relationship between the previous signal and the current signal on the cell identity may also be characterized, e.g. the transmission cell of the previous signal is the same as the transmission cell of the current signal.
In this embodiment, the cell identification parameter may be flexibly configured or agreed according to specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signal.
In summary, the various transmission parameters mentioned above may be arbitrarily combined to form different preset conditions according to the specific requirements and considerations of signal transmission, for example, from the aspects of reliability of signal transmission or importance of transmission signals. This is not described in detail since it is not exhaustive.
Optionally, before the directly using the target transmission resource to transmit the current signal, the method further includes:
and selecting the transmission resource meeting the preset condition from the alternative transmission resources as the target transmission resource.
In this embodiment, in order to enable the communication device to transmit signals on the transmission resources not used for LBT with as high probability as possible, the communication device may preferentially select the transmission resources not used for LBT from the alternative transmission resources for signal transmission when triggering signal transmission. Wherein, the alternative transmission resource can be configured by the network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
As shown in fig. 3, at t2In the alternative transmission resources corresponding to the time node, if the transmission resource a is a transmission resource that does not need to be used as an LBT, the communication device may preferentially select the transmission resource a and directly use the transmission resource a for signal transmission.
When the UE triggers uplink signal transmission, for example, PRACH, PUCCH including SR, PUCCH including HARQ feedback, PUCCH including CSI information, SRs, or PUSCH, the UE may preferentially select a transmission resource that is not used for LBT for uplink signal transmission.
Or, when the network side device triggers downlink signal transmission, for example, PDCCH, PDSCH, CSI-RS, or SSB, the network side device may preferentially select a transmission resource that is not used for LBT for downlink signal transmission.
Two alternative transmission resource selection schemes and signaling schemes are exemplified below.
The first method is as follows: randomly selecting one transmission resource from the alternative transmission resources, judging whether the selected transmission resource meets a preset condition, and if so, directly using the transmission resource to transmit a signal; otherwise, one transmission resource is continuously and randomly selected for judgment until the transmission resource meeting the preset condition is found, and the transmission resource meeting the preset condition is directly used for transmitting the signal. If all transmission resources do not meet the preset conditions, one transmission resource is randomly selected for LBT, if the LBT is successful, the transmission resource is used for transmitting signals, otherwise, the processes are continuously selected and repeated.
The second method comprises the following steps: selecting a transmission resource from the alternative transmission resources according to a certain sequence, judging whether the selected transmission resource meets a preset condition, and if so, directly using the transmission resource to transmit a signal; otherwise, the next transmission resource is judged until the transmission resource meeting the preset condition is found, and the transmission resource meeting the preset condition is directly used for transmitting the signal. If all transmission resources do not meet the preset conditions, one transmission resource is randomly selected for LBT, if the LBT is successful, the transmission resource is used for transmitting signals, otherwise, the processes are continuously selected and repeated.
The above transmission resource selection method and signal transmission method are only examples, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.
Therefore, the communication equipment can further reduce the frequency of LBT in the communication process of the communication equipment in the unauthorized frequency band by preferentially selecting the transmission resources which do not need to be LBT, thereby further reducing the electric energy consumed by the communication equipment in the resource idle detection of the unauthorized frequency band.
Optionally, when the number of transmission resources that satisfy the preset condition in the candidate transmission resources is greater than or equal to 2, the selecting transmission resources that satisfy the preset condition as the target transmission resources at least includes:
randomly selecting one transmission resource from the transmission resources meeting the preset condition as the target transmission resource; alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,
and selecting the target transmission resource from the transmission resources meeting the preset condition according to the measurement result.
A specific example of how the communication device selects a target transmission resource based on the measurement results is given below.
Example one: selecting the uplink transmission resource with the best or better downlink measurement result corresponding to the uplink transmission resource as a target transmission resource from a plurality of (including two) uplink transmission resources meeting the preset condition for sending the uplink signal.
For example, the PRACH resource 1 and the PRACH resource 2 both satisfy the preset condition, and a measurement result of RSRP (Reference Symbol Received Power) of a downlink CSI-RS or SSB corresponding to the PRACH resource 1 is better, then the UE may preferentially select the PRACH resource 1 as the target transmission resource.
Example two: selecting the downlink transmission resource with the best or better downlink measurement result corresponding to the downlink transmission resource as a target transmission resource from a plurality of (including two) downlink transmission resources meeting the preset condition for sending the downlink signal.
For example, PDCCH resource 1 and PDCCH resource 2 simultaneously satisfy the preset condition, and the measurement result of RSRP of the downlink CSI-RS or SSB corresponding to PDCCH resource 1 is better, then the network side device may preferentially select PDCCH resource 1 as the target transmission resource.
The above method for selecting the target transmission resource according to the measurement result is only an example, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit this.
As shown in fig. 4, at t2In the alternative transmission resources corresponding to the time node, if the transmission resource C and the transmission resource D are transmission resources not used for LBT, the communication device may randomly select one of the transmission resources from the transmission resource C and the transmission resource D; and selecting the transmission resource with better measurement result from the transmission resources C and D according to the measurement result.
Optionally, the selection manner of the target transmission resource at least includes:
selecting the target transmission resource through a Media Access Control (MAC) layer; alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,
selecting the target transmission resource through a physical PHY layer.
Wherein the selecting the target transmission resource through a media access control, MAC, layer comprises:
the MAC layer judges whether the transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist in the alternative transmission resources or not;
if the transmission resources meet the preset conditions, the MAC layer selects the target transmission resources from the transmission resources meeting the preset conditions;
the MAC layer indicates the target transmission resource to the PHY layer.
The following specifically describes the process of selecting a target transmission resource through the MAC layer in the two application scenarios, i.e., UE transmits an uplink signal using a resource in an unlicensed frequency band, and network-side device transmits a downlink signal using a resource in an unlicensed frequency band.
When the UE triggers uplink signal transmission, the MAC layer selects a plurality of uplink transmission resource locations, for example, resource 1: the PRACH resource is at a frequency point 1 and a subframe 2; resource 2: the PRACH resource is at a frequency point 2 and a subframe 2; resource 3: the PRACH resources are in frequency point 3 and subframe 3. The positions of the uplink transmission resources can be configured by the network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
The MAC layer judges whether the uplink transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist in the plurality of uplink transmission resources, and if the uplink transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist, the MAC layer preferentially selects the uplink transmission resources. For example, resource 1: the PRACH resource is at frequency point 1 and subframe 2, and the UE receives the downlink channel PDCCH signal at frequency point 1 and subframe 1, the MAC layer preferentially selects the resource 1 for the transmission of PRACH.
The MAC layer indicates the selected uplink transmission resource to the PHY layer for transmission of the uplink signal.
Additionally, when a plurality of uplink transmission resources simultaneously satisfy a preset condition, the MAC layer randomly selects an available uplink transmission resource for uplink signal transmission, or selects an uplink transmission resource with the best downlink measurement corresponding to the uplink transmission resource from the plurality of uplink transmission resources.
Correspondingly, when the network side device triggers downlink signal transmission, the MAC layer selects a plurality of downlink transmission resource locations, for example, resource 1: PDCCH resources are at a frequency point 1 and a subframe 2; resource 2: PDCCH resources are at frequency point 2 and subframe 2; resource 3: the PDCCH resources are in frequency point 3 and subframe 3. The positions of the downlink transmission resources can be configured by network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
The MAC layer judges whether the downlink transmission resources meet preset conditions or not in the plurality of downlink transmission resources, and if the downlink transmission resources meet the preset conditions, the MAC layer preferentially selects the downlink transmission resources. For example, resource 1: the PDCCH resources are in a frequency point 1 and a subframe 2, and the network side equipment receives an uplink channel PUCCH signal in the frequency point 1 and the subframe 1, the MAC layer preferentially selects the resource 1 for sending the PDCCH.
And the MAC layer indicates the selected downlink transmission resource to the PHY layer for transmitting the downlink signal.
Additionally, when a plurality of downlink transmission resources simultaneously satisfy a preset condition, the MAC layer randomly selects an available downlink transmission resource for transmitting a downlink signal, or selects a downlink transmission resource corresponding to the downlink transmission resource and having the best downlink measurement from the plurality of downlink transmission resources.
Wherein the selecting the target transmission resource through the physical PHY layer comprises:
the PHY layer receives the alternative transmission resources indicated by the MAC layer;
the PHY layer judges whether the transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist in the alternative transmission resources or not;
and if so, the PHY layer selects the target transmission resource from the resources meeting the preset condition.
The following specifically describes the process of selecting the target transmission resource through the PHY layer for two application scenarios, i.e., UE transmits an uplink signal using the resource in the unlicensed frequency band, and network-side device transmits a downlink signal using the resource in the unlicensed frequency band.
When the UE triggers uplink signal transmission, the MAC layer indicates multiple uplink transmission resources to the PHY layer, for example, resource 1: the PRACH resource is at a frequency point 1 and a subframe 2; resource 2: the PRACH resource is at a frequency point 2 and a subframe 2; resource 3: the PRACH resources are in frequency point 3 and subframe 3. The positions of the uplink transmission resources can be configured by the network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
The PHY layer judges whether the uplink transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist in the plurality of uplink transmission resources indicated by the MAC layer, and if the uplink transmission resources meeting the preset conditions exist, the PHY layer preferentially selects the uplink transmission resources for transmitting the uplink signals. For example, resource 1: the PRACH resource is at frequency point 1 and subframe 2, and the UE receives the downlink channel PDCCH signal at frequency point 1 and subframe 1, the PHY layer preferentially selects the resource 1 for the transmission of the PRACH.
Additionally, when a plurality of uplink transmission resources simultaneously satisfy a preset condition, the PHY layer randomly selects an available uplink transmission resource for transmission of an uplink signal, or selects an uplink transmission resource corresponding to the uplink transmission resource and having the best downlink measurement for transmission of the uplink signal from the plurality of uplink transmission resources.
Correspondingly, when the network side device triggers downlink signal transmission, the MAC layer indicates a plurality of downlink transmission resources to the PHY layer, for example, resource 1: PDCCH resources are at a frequency point 1 and a subframe 2; resource 2: PDCCH resources are at frequency point 2 and subframe 2; resource 3: the PDCCH resources are in frequency point 3 and subframe 3. The positions of the downlink transmission resources can be configured by network side equipment or agreed by a protocol.
The PHY layer judges whether a downlink transmission resource meeting a preset condition exists in a plurality of downlink transmission resources indicated by the MAC layer, and if the downlink transmission resource meeting the preset condition exists, the PHY layer preferentially selects the downlink transmission resource for transmitting a downlink signal. For example, resource 1: the PDCCH resources are in frequency point 1 and subframe 2, and the network side equipment receives an uplink channel PUCCH signal in frequency point 1 and subframe 1, the PHY layer preferentially selects the resource 1 for transmitting the PDCCH.
Additionally, when a plurality of downlink transmission resources simultaneously satisfy a preset condition, the PHY layer randomly selects an available downlink transmission resource for transmitting a downlink signal, or selects a downlink transmission resource corresponding to the downlink transmission resource and having the best downlink measurement from the plurality of downlink transmission resources for transmitting the downlink signal.
In summary, in a short time before the communication device performs signal transmission, if a certain transmission resource belonging to an unlicensed frequency band transmits a previous signal, the communication device may directly use the transmission resource for signal transmission without performing LBT on the transmission resource. In addition, the communication device may also preferentially select, among the alternative transmission resources, a transmission resource that does not require LBT for transmission of the signal. Therefore, the frequency of LBT of the communication equipment in the communication process of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced, and the electric energy consumed by the communication equipment in the resource idle detection of the unauthorized frequency band can be reduced.
