However, satellite communication, as a supplement to 5G and an important part of 6G systems, also faces many challenges, such as power consumption, frequency, doppler shift, and timing. Since the propagation delay of a signal is naturally very large when a satellite is far from the ground (the low-earth satellite is about 600km away from the ground), the delay is quite large compared with a ground base station, and in addition, the doppler frequency offset greatly increases the complexity of timing estimation of a User Equipment (UE), which increases the cost of the UE.

Currently, according to some research results of 3GPP, there are 2 main categories of methods for simplifying the timing complexity of UE:
first, UE computation with known satellite positions;
the method comprises the following steps: fixed TA (Timing Advance), i.e., calculated from the position of the satellite relative to the speed of light propagation time of a reference point;
the method 2 comprises the following steps: estimating TA by only depending on UE, namely calculating unidirectional TA according to the known absolute position of sending a certain downlink reference signal and the position of receiving the certain downlink reference signal by the UE;

However, in the specific implementation process, the inventors of the embodiments of the present disclosure find that: in the downlink synchronization process, generally, the UE cannot accurately acquire the position of the satellite, and the UE cannot know the distance between the UE and the reference point, which greatly increases the complexity of the downlink synchronization between the UE and the satellite.
Generally, the ground devices communicating with the satellite include, but are not limited to, a UE and a gateway station (such as a fixed-position receiving station, a high-gain parabolic antenna, a satellite ground station, and the like), where the gateway station is more accurate in estimating a time delay between the UE and the satellite, that is, the estimated time delay of the gateway station is more accurate, and a distance between the gateway station and the UE can be estimated according to a common ground communication method.
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more apparent, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an exemplary wireless communication system, and as shown in fig. 1, the mobile communication system may include: a number of user devices 110, 1 gateway station 120 and 1 satellite 130.
The user equipment 110 may communicate with a gateway station via a Radio Access Network (RAN). User device 110 may be a device that provides voice and/or data connectivity to a user, such as a smartphone, tablet, smart watch, and the like. Of course, the user equipment 110 may also be an internet of things device, such as a sensor device, a mobile phone (or referred to as a "cellular" phone), and a computer with an internet of things terminal, for example, a fixed, portable, pocket, handheld, computer-embedded or vehicle-mounted device, and for example, a mobile station (mobile station), a mobile station (mobile), a remote station (remote station), an access point, a remote terminal (remote terminal), an access terminal (access terminal), and the like, which are not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.
The gateway station 120 may be a fixed location receiving station, a high gain parabolic dish, etc. in a wireless communication system, and the gateway station 120 may also be a satellite earth station. The wireless communication system may be a 5G system, which is also called a New Radio (NR) system. Alternatively, the wireless communication system may be a next-generation system of a 5G system.
The satellites 130 may be geostationary orbit satellites, medium orbit satellites, low orbit satellites, and the like. A wireless connection may be established between the satellite 130 and the user equipment 110 over a wireless air interface. In different embodiments, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on a fifth generation mobile communication network technology (5G) standard, for example, the wireless air interface is a new air interface; alternatively, the wireless air interface may be a wireless air interface based on a 5G next generation mobile communication network technology standard.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a downlink synchronization method, which is applied in the wireless communication system shown in fig. 1 and is performed by the user equipment 110 in fig. 1, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:
step S210, receiving indication information sent by a gateway station, wherein the indication information is used for indicating a timing deviation between the gateway station and a satellite, and the timing deviation is obtained by the gateway station according to a downlink synchronization signal sent by the satellite; step S220, referring to the timing offset, performing downlink synchronization with the satellite.
Although the ue can directly acquire downlink synchronization with the satellite, the ue cannot perform downlink synchronization with the satellite quickly and accurately due to the severe doppler frequency offset jitter and limited processing capability of the ue, which are caused by the extra long distance between the ue and the satellite. Considering that the satellite can communicate with the ground gateway station, the position of the gateway station is fixed, the distance between the gateway station and the satellite is also fixed, the processing capacity of the gateway station is relatively strong, the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite can be accurately calculated, and the value of the timing deviation is relatively stable, so that the user equipment can be assisted to complete the downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite by means of the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite.
In the process of information transmission between the gateway station and the satellite, synchronization between the gateway station and the satellite is firstly needed, for example, when the gateway station needs to send information to the satellite, the gateway station needs to establish uplink synchronization with the satellite, and for example, when the satellite needs to send information to the gateway station, the satellite needs to establish downlink synchronization with the gateway station. The gateway station can estimate the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite by receiving a downlink synchronization signal transmitted by the satellite, so as to establish downlink synchronization with the satellite according to the timing deviation.
The gateway station can not only transmit information with the satellite, but also transmit information with each user equipment in the coverage area, and based on the information, the gateway station can transmit the estimated timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite to each user equipment in the coverage area. The gateway station can transmit the timing deviation between the user equipment and the satellite by transmitting the indication information to each user equipment so as to assist each user equipment to complete downlink synchronization with the satellite. Correspondingly, for any user equipment within the coverage area of the gateway station, the user equipment receives indication information sent by the gateway station, the indication information is used for indicating the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite, and the timing deviation is obtained by the gateway station according to a downlink synchronization signal sent by the satellite. After receiving the indication information sent by the gateway station, the user equipment can acquire the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite according to the indication information, and perform downlink synchronization with the satellite by referring to the timing deviation.
The user equipment can quickly determine the starting time point of receiving the satellite synchronization signal by referring to the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite, thereby quickly carrying out downlink synchronization with the satellite, greatly shortening the synchronization time between the user equipment and the satellite and effectively reducing the power consumption consumed by the synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite.
The downlink synchronization method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can quickly perform downlink synchronization with a satellite by referring to the received timing deviation between a gateway station and the satellite, so that the user equipment can quickly lock the synchronization range of the downlink synchronization according to the accurate timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite under the condition of initial synchronization, thereby not only greatly improving the speed, efficiency and accuracy of completing the downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite, and greatly shortening the synchronization time between the user equipment and the satellite, but also greatly reducing the power consumption of performing the downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite.
In the following, a downlink synchronization method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is specifically described with reference to specific scenarios:
in a possible implementation manner, before receiving the indication information sent by the gateway station, the method further includes: receiving a ground synchronous signal sent by a gateway station; and synchronizing with the gateway station according to the ground synchronizing signal.
Generally, the first step of information transmission in a communication system is synchronization, and a communication system is formed between a gateway station and a user equipment, so that in the process of information transmission between the gateway station and the user equipment, synchronization is necessarily required to be firstly performed, namely, before the gateway station sends indication information to the user equipment, the user equipment needs to be firstly synchronized. The gateway station may synchronize with the user equipment (referred to as terrestrial synchronization) by transmitting a synchronization signal (referred to as terrestrial synchronization) to the user equipment. Correspondingly, the user equipment receives the ground synchronization signal transmitted by the gateway station.
After receiving the ground synchronizing signal sent by the gateway station, the user equipment can synchronize with the gateway station according to the ground synchronizing signal, thereby completing the ground synchronization with the gateway station. After the user equipment completes ground synchronization with the gateway station according to the ground synchronization signal, the user equipment can accurately acquire the indication information sent by the gateway station based on the ground synchronization signal, so as to acquire the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite, and then perform downlink synchronization with the satellite by referring to the timing deviation.
In one example, the gateway station may transmit the terrestrial synchronization signal and the indication information by transmitting a synchronization channel to the user equipment, i.e., the synchronization channel includes the terrestrial synchronization signal and the indication information. Correspondingly, the user equipment receives the ground synchronization signal and the indication information by receiving the synchronization channel transmitted by the gateway station. After receiving a synchronization channel sent by a gateway station, user equipment firstly establishes synchronization with the gateway station according to a ground synchronization signal in the synchronization channel, and acquires indication information in the synchronization channel after establishing synchronization, namely acquires timing deviation between the gateway station and a satellite.
In yet another example, the gateway station may transmit the terrestrial synchronization signal by transmitting a synchronization channel to the user equipment, and correspondingly, the user equipment receives the terrestrial synchronization signal by receiving the synchronization channel transmitted by the gateway station. After receiving the synchronous channel sent by the gateway station, the user equipment establishes synchronization with the gateway station according to the ground synchronous signal in the synchronous channel. After the user equipment and the gateway station establish synchronization, the gateway station may continue to transmit the indication information indicating the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite to the user equipment through the synchronization channel, or through other transmission methods. Correspondingly, the user equipment receives the indication information sent by the gateway station and acquires the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite according to the indication information.
In the above two examples, the synchronization channel transmitted by the gateway station to the user equipment may be in a similar form of an NR (New Radio, New air interface) synchronization block, that is, the synchronization channel is transmitted to the user equipment in a similar form of an NR synchronization block.
In the above two examples, in the process of transmitting the synchronization channel to the user equipment by the gateway station, the gateway station may transmit the synchronization channel to the user equipment at a predetermined frequency, wherein the predetermined frequency may be a sideband frequency of the transmission frequency of the satellite, i.e., the gateway station transmits the synchronization channel to the user equipment at the sideband frequency of the transmission frequency of the satellite. Correspondingly, the user equipment receives the synchronization channel transmitted by the gateway station at a predetermined frequency, which is a sideband frequency of the transmission frequency of the satellite.
The above-mentioned sideband frequency of the transmission frequency of the satellite is only a preferred way of the predetermined frequency, the predetermined frequency is not limited to the sideband frequency of the transmission frequency of the satellite, and may be other feasible transmission frequencies.
It should be noted that, in the process of searching (or receiving) the ground synchronization signal transmitted by the gateway station, if the ground synchronization signal transmitted by the gateway station is not searched or received all the time, or if the ground synchronization signal transmitted by the gateway station is received but the received ground synchronization signal is weak (for example, the signal strength is lower than a predetermined strength threshold), the user equipment cannot establish synchronization with the gateway station, and naturally cannot receive the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite transmitted by the gateway station, and at this time, cannot refer to the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite to perform downlink with the satellite. In this case, the user equipment needs to perform downlink synchronization with the satellite by acquiring the downlink synchronization signal transmitted by the satellite, that is, the synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite is still performed by the downlink synchronization signal transmitted by the satellite. Therefore, the downlink synchronization method in the embodiment of the disclosure is an auxiliary enhancement method of a normal synchronization method (that is, the user equipment performs downlink synchronization with the satellite through the downlink synchronization signal sent by the satellite), and can greatly accelerate the synchronization speed between the user equipment and the satellite.
In other words, in some cases (e.g., the user equipment cannot establish synchronization with the gateway station), the user equipment may not rely on the gateway station to perform downlink synchronization with the satellite, but may perform downlink synchronization with the satellite by directly receiving the downlink synchronization signal of the satellite. When the user equipment searches or receives a ground synchronization signal sent by the gateway station, and the ground synchronization signal is relatively strong (for example, the signal strength is greater than or equal to a predetermined strength threshold), synchronization can be established with the gateway station according to the ground synchronization signal, so that the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite sent by the gateway station can be received, and downlink synchronization can be performed with the satellite by referring to the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite.
In one possible implementation, the reference timing offset, downlink synchronization with the satellite, includes: determining the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station according to the ground synchronous signal; and performing downlink synchronization with the satellite according to the timing deviation and the distance.
The user equipment, upon receiving the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite, may perform downlink synchronization with the satellite directly based on the timing offset. However, since there is a distance between the user equipment and the gateway station, the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite is not the actual timing offset between the user equipment and the satellite. Although the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite is not the actual timing deviation between the user equipment and the satellite, the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite provides a reliable reference basis for downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite, so that the user equipment can quickly lock a synchronization range of downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite according to the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite, and after the user equipment locks the synchronization range, the user equipment can further search an accurate synchronization point between the user equipment and the satellite in the synchronization range according to a feasible calculation mode (such as correlation peak calculation) and complete the downlink synchronization between the user equipment and the satellite.
The distance between the user equipment and the gateway station may be estimated from signal transmissions between the gateway station and the user equipment, for example, from a ground synchronization signal sent by the gateway station, i.e., the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station is determined from the ground synchronization signal. If the gateway station transmits the terrestrial synchronization signal at time t1, the terrestrial synchronization signal received by the user equipment at time t2, then the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station can be estimated as (t2-t1)/c, where c is the speed of light.
After the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station is obtained, the user equipment can perform downlink synchronization with the satellite according to the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite and the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station, so that the user equipment can complete the downlink synchronization with the satellite more quickly and accurately within a locked synchronization range according to the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station.
In the process of downlink synchronization with the satellite according to the timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite and the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station, the user equipment can determine whether the received timing deviation between the gateway station and the satellite needs to be compensated according to the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station, for example, a timing deviation compensation value is compensated on the basis of the timing deviation, and then downlink synchronization with the satellite is performed according to the compensated value.
In practice, it may be determined whether compensation for the timing offset between the received gateway station and the satellite is required based on whether the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station exceeds a predetermined distance threshold. In one example, when the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station does not exceed the predetermined distance threshold, it indicates that the user equipment and the gateway station are relatively close to each other, and the distance may be ignored, i.e., the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite received by the user equipment is not compensated, and the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite may be directly used as the timing offset between the user equipment and the satellite, i.e., the timing offset is directly used for downlink synchronization with the satellite.
In another example, when the distance between the user equipment and the gateway station exceeds the predetermined distance threshold, which indicates that the user equipment and the gateway station are relatively far away from each other, the distance may not be ignored, and a timing offset compensation value to be compensated is determined based on the distance, that is, a timing offset compensation value is additionally compensated based on the timing offset, which is equivalent to adding a timing offset compensation value to the timing offset to obtain a sum of the timing offset and the timing offset compensation value, and then downlink synchronization is performed with the satellite according to the sum of the timing offset and the timing offset compensation value. If the timing offset is 1 second, the timing offset compensation value is 0.01 second, i.e. the sum of the timing offset and the timing offset compensation value is 1.01 second, then the ue needs to perform downlink synchronization with the satellite according to the compensated 1.01 second.
In the process of determining the timing deviation compensation value to be compensated based on the distance, the distance between the satellite and the user equipment can be estimated from a triangle formed by the satellite, the gateway station, and the user equipment (denoted by D1). In the specific calculation process, since the distance between the gateway station and the satellite (denoted as Dn) is specifically calculated and is fixed, the distance between the gateway station and the user equipment (denoted as D0) is also calculated according to the signal transmission between the gateway station and the user equipment, and therefore, the distance D1 between the satellite and the user equipment can be easily calculated according to the relationship between the three sides of the triangle. After the distance D1 is calculated, a timing offset compensation value to be compensated can be calculated according to the difference between the distances D1 and Dn and the timing offset corresponding to the distance Dn (i.e., the timing offset between the gateway station and the satellite), so as to obtain the timing offset corresponding to the distance D1 (i.e., the timing offset between the user equipment and the satellite), wherein the timing offset corresponding to the distance D1 is the sum of the timing offset corresponding to the distance Dn and the timing offset compensation value.
