Multipoint coordination is an important technical means in wireless communication systems. The distributed transmission is carried out through a plurality of distributed transmission points, so that the coverage of the cell edge can be improved, and the time delay and signaling overhead brought by handover are reduced.
At present, in a high-speed rail scene, in order to avoid frequent cell switching of a terminal, an SFN deployment mode, which is referred to as an HST-SFN scene for short, is generally adopted. In the HST-SFN scenario, a typical transmission scheme is to send downlink signals from all RRHs connected to a BBU at the same time. However, it is possible that signals from multiple RRHs may experience different doppler shifts (e.g., a doppler shift from one or some RRHs being positive and a doppler shift from another or some RRHs being negative), thereby producing a doppler spread that includes positive and negative doppler shifts. In addition, since the train moves at a high speed, the range of variation of the doppler shift may be large, which may result in that the terminal may not demodulate the downlink signal well.
In view of the foregoing problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a frequency compensation method, an apparatus, a network side device, and a terminal, which are used to eliminate doppler spread experienced by a downlink signal.
The frequency compensation method, the frequency compensation device, the network side equipment, the terminal and the storage medium provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to a wireless communication system or a wireless and wired combined system. Including but not limited to 5G systems (e.g., NR systems), 6G systems, satellite systems, car networking systems, long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, and subsequent Evolution communication systems thereof.
The network side device provided by the embodiment of the present invention may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following: generally, a base station, an evolved node base (eNB), a network side device in a 5G system (e.g., a next generation base station (gNB), a Transmission and Reception Point (TRP)), and other devices are used.
The terminal provided by the embodiment of the invention can be called as user equipment and the like. The terminal includes but is not limited to handheld devices and vehicle-mounted devices. For example, the Mobile phone may be a Mobile phone, a tablet pc, a notebook pc, an Ultra-Mobile Personal Computer (UMPC), a netbook, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or the like.
The following description is given by way of specific examples.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a frequency compensation method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the frequency compensation method may be used in a network device, for example: the network side device may include a central processing unit, a TRP (Transmission Reception Point), and the like, and the configuration or the indication of the network side device may be performed by the central processing unit or by the TRP; as shown in fig. 1, the method comprises the steps of:
step 110: and receiving the first uplink signal for frequency compensation transmitted by the terminal by using one or more first TRPs.
Specifically, a plurality of first TRPs are grouped (divided into one or more TRP groups), and the one or more TRP groups receive a first uplink signal for frequency compensation transmitted by a terminal using a part of the first TRPs in the group. For example, each first TRP group uses one first TRP for reception of the first uplink signal.
Each of the first TRPs performs reception of a first uplink signal for frequency compensation transmitted by the terminal.
The first uplink Signal may be an SRS (Sounding Reference Signal), a random access Signal, and other Reference signals that may be used for frequency compensation. The Random Access signal may be transmitted through a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel).
In addition, the TRP in the embodiment of the present invention may be an antenna element group, an RRH, or the like of the network side device.
Step 120: and determining a frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP by using the first uplink signal.
Specifically, each first TRP determines its corresponding frequency offset value using the first uplink signal.
When the first TRPs are divided into one or more TRP groups, when determining the frequency offset value corresponding to each first TRP by using the first uplink signal, determining the frequency offset value corresponding to each first TRP group may include determining the frequency offset value for each TRP group, and further determining the frequency offset value corresponding to each first TRP.
For all the first TRPs in each TRP group, the corresponding frequency offset values may be the same, and are all the frequency offset values corresponding to the TRP group. For example, when any one TRP group uses a first TRP in the TRP group to receive a first uplink signal, the first uplink signal may be used to determine a frequency offset value corresponding to the TRP group, and the frequency offset value may be used as a frequency offset value corresponding to each first TRP in the TRP group. Thus, the frequency compensation values corresponding to the plurality of TRP groups are determined, and the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP can be further determined.
In addition, when the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP is determined using the first uplink signal, the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP may be determined based on the doppler spectrum of the first uplink signal, or the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP may be determined based on a frequency offset estimation value (e.g., a doppler shift estimation value) of the first uplink signal.
Step 130: and determining the transmission frequency of each first TRP for downlink transmission according to the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP.
Specifically, when performing downlink transmission, each first TRP may use a transmission frequency after frequency compensation, so that a downlink doppler shift received by a terminal from each first TRP may be controlled within a smaller difference range (i.e., doppler spread is eliminated), thereby reducing an error of channel estimation and improving performance of downlink transmission.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, first uplink signals for frequency compensation sent by one or more first TRPs are received, frequency compensation values corresponding to the first TRPs are determined by the first uplink signals, and transmission frequencies used for downlink transmission of the first TRPs are determined according to the frequency compensation values corresponding to the first TRPs, so that when downlink transmission of the first TRPs is performed, downlink transmission can be performed by using the transmission frequencies after frequency compensation, thereby implementing frequency compensation for the first TRPs during downlink transmission, effectively eliminating doppler spread at a terminal side, and further improving performance of downlink transmission.
Further, based on the above method, the determining, in step 120, the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP by using the first uplink signal may adopt, but is not limited to, the following implementation manners:
and (1-1-1) carrying out frequency offset estimation by using the first uplink signal to obtain a frequency offset estimation result.
Optionally, frequency offset estimation may be performed on the first uplink signal corresponding to each first TRP, so as to obtain a frequency offset estimation value corresponding to each first TRP.
The first uplink signals corresponding to the first TRPs may be the same uplink signal or different uplink signals.
Optionally, when each first TRP is divided into one or more TRP groups, frequency offset estimation may be performed on a first uplink signal corresponding to one first TRP in each TRP group, so as to obtain a frequency offset estimation value corresponding to the TRP group. Optionally, the frequency offset estimation value corresponding to the TRP group where any first TRP is located is further taken as the frequency offset estimation value corresponding to the first TRP.
(1-1-2) determining a reference point for frequency compensation according to the frequency offset estimation result
Specifically, each first TRP determines a frequency compensation value based on the same reference point, which can ensure that the compensated doppler received by the terminal is almost the same. For example, the difference between the respective first TRP frequency compensation values is equal to their single-pass doppler difference.
Alternatively, the reference points corresponding to the first TRPs may be the same reference point.
Alternatively, when the first TRPs are divided into one or more TRP groups, the reference points corresponding to the TRP groups may be the same reference point.
(1-1-3) determining respective frequency compensation values corresponding to the first TRPs according to the frequency offset estimation result and the reference point.
Specifically, the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP may be determined according to the frequency offset estimation value corresponding to each first TRP and the same reference point corresponding to each first TRP.
Such as: reference point f r The estimated frequency offset value of the nth first TRP is f n Then the frequency compensation value of the nth first TRP is f r -f n . Suppose that the nth first TRP should be at frequency f x For transmitting downlink signals, it needs to be adjusted to be at frequency f x +f r -f n And sending the downlink signal.
Where the reference point may be 0. At this time, if the estimated frequency offset value of the nth first TRP is f n Then, the frequency offset value of the nth first TRP is-fn. Suppose that the nth first TRP should be at frequency f x For transmitting downlink signals, it needs to be adjusted to be at frequency f x -f n And sending the downlink signal.
By the adjustment of the above embodiment, when the reference point is f r When the terminal receivesWill be at f x +f y In the vicinity of, wherein f y Is the difference between the frequency offset value of any one first TRP and the Doppler shift from the first TRP to the terminal.
As can be seen from the foregoing embodiments, the first uplink signal may be utilized to perform frequency offset estimation to obtain a frequency offset estimation result, determine a reference point for determining the frequency compensation value, and determine the frequency compensation value corresponding to each first TRP according to the frequency offset estimation result and the reference point, so as to achieve an effect of eliminating the doppler spread range received by the terminal being too large.
Further, based on the above method, the determining of the reference point for frequency compensation according to the frequency offset estimation result in (1-1-2) may adopt, but is not limited to, the following implementation manners:
(1-2-1) determining the reference point according to a set rule.
In particular, the reference point for determining the frequency compensation value may be determined by the network side device. For example; according to some predefined rules.
Further, based on the above method, the setting rule in (1-2-1) may include, but is not limited to, any one of the following:
(1-2-2) the reference point is a frequency offset estimation value or a frequency compensation value corresponding to the first specified TRP determined by the network side equipment;
(1-2-3) the reference point is a frequency offset estimation value corresponding to the maximum value of absolute values in frequency offset estimation values corresponding to each first TRP determined by the network side equipment;
(1-2-4) the reference point is a frequency offset estimation value corresponding to the minimum value of absolute values in the frequency offset estimation values corresponding to the first TRPs determined by the network side equipment;
(1-2-5) the reference point is the maximum value in the absolute values of the frequency offset estimation values corresponding to the first TRPs determined by the network side equipment;

The frequency (assuming that the offset of the downlink signal resource position relative to the downlink frequency point is not considered) when the downlink signal from each TRP reaches the UE without frequency compensation is: TRP1 is f DL + f1; TRP2 is f DL + f2; TRP3 is f DL + f2; TRP4 is f DL +f2;
The uplink frequency points determined by the terminal are assumed to be: f. of UL
The frequency of the uplink signal received by the TRP when reaching the TRP (assuming that the offset of the uplink signal resource position relative to the downlink frequency point is not considered) is: TRP1 is f UL + f1; TRP2 is f UL + f2; TRP3 is f UL + f3; TRP4 is f UL +f4;
TRP uses the following frequency compensation values: TRP1 is f0; TRP2 is f0+ f1-f2; TRP3 is f0+ f1-f3; TRP4 is f0+ f1-f4;
the frequency of the downlink signal from each TRP arriving at the UE after the frequency compensation is: TRP1 is f DL + f0+ f1; TRP2 is f DL + f0+ f1; TRP3 is f DL + f0+ f1; TRP4 is f DL +f0+f1。
Therefore, the Doppler frequency shift of the downlink signals from the TRPs received by the terminal is the same, and the terminal can estimate the Doppler frequency shift more easily to obtain better downlink receiving performance.
Example 2:
one BBU is connected with 4 TRPs, and the order in which a train passes through these TRPs will be TRP1, TRP2, TRP3, TRP4, according to the running direction of the train. Assuming that the Doppler frequency offset estimation of the TRP and the terminal is ideal estimation, the unidirectional Doppler frequency offsets of the TRP1, the TRP2, the TRP3 and the TRP4 are f1, f2, f3 and f4 respectively, f0 is the difference value between the uplink frequency point determined by the terminal and the actual uplink frequency point, and the frequency compensation value is a negative Doppler frequency offset value estimated by the TRP.
Among them, the frequency (downlink reception frequency) of the downlink signal from each TRP arriving at the UE without frequency offset: TRP1 is f DL + f1; TRP2 is f DL + f2; TRP3 is f DL + f2; TRP4 is f DL +f2;
The uplink frequency points determined by the terminal are as follows: f. of UL
Frequency of an uplink signal received by the TRP when reaching the TRP: TRP1 is f UL + f1; TRP2 is f UL + f2; TRP3 is f UL + f3; TRP4 is f UL +f4;
Each TRP uses the following frequency compensation value: TRP1 is f0-f1; TRP2 is f0-f2; TRP3 is f0-f2; TRP4 is f0-f2;
then, the frequency of the downlink signal from each TRP arriving at the UE after the frequency compensation is: TRP1 is f DL + f0; TRP2 is f DL + f0; TRP3 is f DL + f0; TRP4 is f DL +f0。
Therefore, under the scheme of the invention, the Doppler frequency shift of the downlink signals from all TRPs received by the UE is the same, and the UE can estimate the Doppler frequency shift more easily to obtain better downlink receiving performance.
