Background
In a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, a base station can periodically transmit a reference signal, and a User Equipment (UE) keeps synchronization with the base station in time and frequency by tracking the reference signal.

The invention is further illustrated by the following examples, which are not intended to limit the invention thereto.
Example 1
The present embodiment provides a method for adjusting a time offset, as shown in fig. 1, the method for adjusting a time offset includes:
step 101, if the signal-to-noise ratios of all the system synchronization blocks received in the current time period are lower than a first signal-to-noise ratio threshold, acquiring a first target time offset.
The first target time offset is a time offset calculated according to a demodulation reference signal of a physical downlink shared channel received in a current time period.
In a preferred embodiment, the time period is set to be a multiple of an interval between two SSBs before and after the time period is a preset time period, for example, 40 slots (slots) are used as the time period, and further, for example, 80 slots are used as the time period, so as to simplify the calculation and improve the calculation efficiency, and if the interval between two SSBs before and after the time period is 40 slots, the time period is set to be 40n (n is 1, 2, 3, 4 … …).
And 102, adjusting the time offset according to the first target time offset.
It should be understood that the specific manner of adjusting the time offset in the present embodiment can be selected from the prior art according to actual requirements, which is not an improvement point of the present invention.
In this embodiment, after the first target time offset is obtained, the next time period is entered while performing time offset adjustment according to the first target time offset, and the time offset adjustment method in this embodiment is continuously executed by taking the next time period as the current time period.
In this embodiment, when a plurality of first target time offsets are received in the current time period, one first target time offset may be selected according to actual requirements to perform time offset adjustment, or time offset adjustment may be performed by combining a plurality of first target time offsets.
In this embodiment, when there is no TRS, if the signal-to-noise ratios of all the received system synchronization blocks in the current time period are lower than the first signal-to-noise ratio threshold, the time offset adjustment is performed according to the physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal.
In a specific implementation manner, as shown in fig. 2, the step of acquiring the first target time offset in step 101 specifically includes:
step 1011, if the number of physical resource blocks in the shared channel corresponding to the received physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal is higher than the number threshold, taking the corresponding shared channel demodulation reference signal as a preselected reference signal.
Specifically, the embodiment may further store the relevant data (such as the signal-to-noise ratio and the time offset) of the preselected reference signal in the buffer for facilitating the subsequent use, and for the relevant data of the non-preselected reference signal, the relevant data does not need to be stored in the buffer to save the system resources.
Step 1012, the time offset calculated according to the preselected reference signal is used as the first target time offset.
Different from a system synchronization block, the number of resource blocks of a shared channel corresponding to a physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal is not fixed, if the number of physical resource blocks is too small, the time offset calculated according to the corresponding physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal is unreliable, and further the time offset adjustment performed according to the time offset is also inaccurate.
In a preferred embodiment, step 1012 specifically includes the following steps:
taking the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in all the preselected reference signals in the current time period as a target reference signal;
and taking the time offset calculated according to the target reference signal as a first target time offset.
In this embodiment, the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio is used as the target reference signal, and the time offset is adjusted by using the time offset calculated according to the target reference signal, so that the accuracy of time offset adjustment is further improved.
In a specific embodiment, the preselected reference signal in step 1011 is a first preselected reference signal, and the step of using the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in all the preselected reference signals in the current time period as the target reference signal in step 1012 specifically includes the steps of:
taking a signal with a signal-to-noise ratio higher than a second signal-to-noise ratio threshold value in the first pre-selected reference signal as a second pre-selected reference signal;
and taking the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in all the second preselected reference signals in the current time period as the target reference signal.
When the first preselected reference signal is lower than the second signal-to-noise ratio threshold, it is indicated that the signal strength of the signal is not good, and the accuracy of the first target time offset calculated by the signal with poor signal strength is not high, so that the signal may become a signal for adjusting the time offset only when the signal-to-noise ratio is higher than the second signal-to-noise ratio threshold.
As shown in fig. 3, in a specific implementation manner, the method for adjusting a time offset in this embodiment may further include the following steps:
step 201, if a system synchronization block not lower than a first signal-to-noise ratio threshold is received in a current time period, a second target time offset is obtained.
Wherein the second target time offset is a time offset calculated according to the system synchronization block;
and step 202, adjusting the time offset according to the second target time offset.
In this embodiment, if the signal-to-noise ratio of the system synchronization block received in the current time period is not lower than the first signal-to-noise ratio threshold, it is indicated that the signal of the system synchronization block is reliable, and the signal can be used as an adjustment basis to directly perform time offset adjustment by using the time offset calculated by the system synchronization block.
Further, step 203 is included after step 202, and the time corresponding to the system synchronization block is taken as the starting time of the next time period.
At this time, the next time period is the current period for adjusting, and the above steps are continuously executed to continuously adjust the time offset from the start time.
For a better understanding of the present embodiment, the following description is given by way of a specific example:
as shown in FIG. 4, assume that the start of the current time period is t 0 End point is t 1 If t is 0 To t 1 And in the time period, receiving a system synchronization block with the signal-to-noise ratio not lower than a first signal-to-noise ratio threshold value, acquiring a second target time offset calculated according to the system synchronization block, and parallelly adjusting the time offset by using the time offset. At the same time, the system is synchronized with the block pairThe time is taken as the starting time of the next time period. E.g. at a point in time t x When a system synchronization block with a signal-to-noise ratio not lower than a first signal-to-noise ratio threshold is received, a time offset adjustment is performed based on a time offset calculated by the system synchronization block, and t is calculated x As the start time of the next time period.
As shown in fig. 5, if t 0 To t 1 If the number of physical resource blocks in the shared channel corresponding to the demodulation reference signal of the physical downlink shared channel received in the period is not higher than the number threshold at this time, the time offset adjustment is not performed in the time period.
In this embodiment, if the signal-to-noise ratios in all the first preselected reference signals in the time period are not higher than the second signal-to-noise ratio threshold, the time offset adjustment is not performed in the time period.
And taking the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in all the second preselected reference signals in the current time period as a target reference signal, taking the time offset calculated according to the target reference signal as a first target time offset, and adjusting the time offset by using the first target time offset. E.g., at this time, t y And taking the signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in the second pre-selected reference signal as the receiving point of the target reference signal. At the same time, let t 1 As the start time for the next time period.

In a preferred embodiment, the time period is set to be a multiple of an interval between two SSBs before and after the time period is a preset time period, for example, 40 slots are used as the time period, and further, for example, 80 slots are used as the time period, so as to simplify the calculation and improve the calculation efficiency, and if the interval between two SSBs before and after the time period is 30 slots, the time period is set to be 30n (n is 1, 2, 3, 4 … …).
The first time offset adjusting module is used for adjusting the time offset according to the first target time offset.
It should be understood that the specific manner of adjusting the time offset in the present embodiment can be selected from the prior art according to actual requirements, which is not an improvement point of the present invention.

The target time offset determination unit 3012 is configured to set a time offset calculated from a preselected reference signal as a first target time offset.
Different from a system synchronization block, the number of resource blocks of a shared channel corresponding to a physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal is not fixed, and if the number of the physical resource blocks is too small, the time offset calculated according to the corresponding physical downlink shared channel demodulation reference signal is unreliable, and further the time offset adjustment according to the time offset is also inaccurate.
In a preferred embodiment, the target time offset determining unit 3012 is specifically configured to use a signal with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in all the preselected reference signals in the current time period as the target reference signal; and taking the time offset calculated according to the target reference signal as a first target time offset.

When the first preselected reference signal is lower than the second signal-to-noise ratio threshold, it is indicated that the signal strength of the signal is not good, and the accuracy of the first target time offset calculated by the signal with poor signal strength is not high, so that the signal may become a signal for adjusting the time offset only when the signal-to-noise ratio is higher than the second signal-to-noise ratio threshold.

Further, the time offset adjustment system may further include a time determination module 305, configured to use a time corresponding to the system synchronization block as a starting time of the next time period.
At this time, the next time period is the current period for adjusting, and the above steps are continuously executed to continuously adjust the time offset from the start time.
