Description

Reconfigurable intelligent surface beam scanning method, system, equipment and storage medium
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method, system, device, and storage medium for reconfigurable intelligent surface beam scanning.
Background
Reconfigurable smart surface technology is commonly used to improve signal shadowing in a communications environment. The Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) has the capability of reconfiguring a wireless propagation environment, and can be used for coverage enhancement of coverage dead zones of a communication system (especially a high-frequency communication system). Reconfiguring smart surfaces is a totally new and revolutionary technology that can intelligently reconfigure the wireless propagation environment by integrating a large number of low-cost passive reflective elements in a plane, thereby significantly improving the performance of wireless communication networks. In particular, different elements of the RIS can independently reflect incident signals by controlling their amplitude and/or phase, thereby synergistically enabling fine three-dimensional (3D) passive beamforming for directional signal enhancement or nulling. However, reconfigurable smart surfaces typically produce differently directed main lobes and side lobes when used, with the maximum radiation beam being called the main lobe and the beamlets adjacent the main lobe being called the side lobes. The pattern of the reconfigurable smart surface typically has two or more lobes, with the lobe with the greatest radiation intensity being referred to as the main lobe and the remaining lobes being referred to as the side lobes or side lobes. An angle between two points at which the radiation intensity is reduced by 3dB (the power density is reduced by half) on both sides of the maximum radiation direction of the main lobe is defined as a lobe width (also referred to as a beam width, a main lobe width, or a half-power angle).
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication scenario based on reconfigurable smart surface beams in the prior art. As shown in fig. 1, a first base station 1 and a mobile phone 41 located in an edge area are disposed in a cell 10, and a second base station 2 and a mobile phone 42 located in an edge area are disposed in a cell 20 located around the cell 10. When the reconfigurable intelligent surface device 3 (RIS) is not deployed in the cell 10, due to path loss, penetration loss and the like, the intensity of a signal reaching the coverage blind area 43 is already weak, and the interference to an adjacent cell is small, after the RIS is introduced into the cell, the coverage of the coverage blind area is enhanced through the RIS reflection beam main lobe 31, and meanwhile, due to the existence of the RIS reflection beam side lobe 32, unnecessary interference is also generated to the area 44 of the adjacent cell, the communication quality of the mobile phone 42 in the area 44 is affected, and the interference degree is more serious than that when the RIS is not deployed in the cell, namely, the interference to the adjacent cell is enhanced when the RIS is deployed while the useful signal of the cell is enhanced.
In view of the above, the present invention provides a reconfigurable intelligent surface beam scanning method, system, device and storage medium.

Fig. 12 and 13 are schematic diagrams of the implementation process of the reconfigurable intelligent surface beam scanning method of the invention. Referring to fig. 1, 12 and 13, the specific embodiment of the present invention is as follows: a first base station 1 (BS) and a handset 41 (UE) are deployed within the cell 10. Since a signal blind area exists in the cell 10, a device 3 (RIS) capable of reconstructing an intelligent surface is arranged in the cell 10 and is used for coverage enhancement of a coverage blind area in the cell, which is hereinafter referred to as an RIS cell. A second base station 2 (BS) and a mobile 42 (UE) are deployed in a cell 20 adjacent to the cell 10, but an RIS is not deployed, and hereinafter referred to as an RIS-free neighboring cell. The first base station 1 in the RIS cell and the second base station 2 in the non-RIS neighbor cell can realize time synchronization (synchronously scan beams in each cell). But interference to the communication of cell 20 is caused by the proximity of device 3 of the reconfigurable intelligent surface of cell 10 to cell 20 adjacent to cell 10. The invention reduces the adjacent cell interference caused by side lobes of the RIS reflected wave beam, ensures the user experience of the adjacent cell and improves the communication quality of the whole environment through the following steps.
(1) Firstly, RIS cell region division and annular gridding treatment are carried out:
taking the first base station 1 of the RIS Cell as a center of circle, performing annular gridding division on coverage areas of BSs in the RIS Cell according to a received BS signal RSRP range, wherein an area with an RSRP between a threshold 1 and a threshold 2 is referred to as an RIS Cell BS direct coverage area, which is denoted as an RIS Cell BS DCA, such as a grid area represented by 11, 12, 13, 14 in fig. 12. The area with RSRP between threshold 3 and threshold 4 is called RIS Cell RIS supplementary coverage area, denoted as RIS Cell RIS ACA, as represented by grid areas 15, 16 in fig. 12. Here, RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power) is one of the key parameters that can represent the wireless Signal strength in the LTE network and the physical layer measurement requirement, and is the average value of the received Signal Power on all REs (resource elements) that carry Reference signals within a certain symbol. The use and specification are equivalent to the RSCP (Received Signal Code Power) Received Signal Code Power in WCDMA. RSRP definition: a linear average of the received power (in watts) over the Resource Elements (REs) carrying the reference signal over the considered measurement frequency bandwidth.
Performing circular meshing processing (the size of circular meshing is configurable) on the RIS Cell BS DCA by taking the first base station 1 as a center, numbering the meshes according to the sequence from the near to the far of the BS in the RIS Cell and looking down the BS in the RIS Cell clockwise, wherein the mesh is called as RIS Cell BS DCA Grid ID, and the mesh is taken as RIS Cell BS DCA Grid 1 (namely DCA1 in figure 12), RIS Cell BS DCA Grid 2 (namely DCA2 in figure 12), RIS Cell BS DCA Grid3 (namely DCA3 in figure 12), RIS Cell BS DCA Grid 4 (namely DCA4 in figure 12), … … and RIS Cell BS DCA Grid M.
The method comprises the steps of carrying out annular gridding treatment (the size of annular gridding is configurable) on RIS Cell RIS ACA, numbering grids according to the same sequence, wherein the grids are called RIS Cell RIS ACA Grid ID and take the values of RIS Cell RIS ACA Grid 1 (namely ACA1 in figure 12), RIS Cell RIS ACA Grid 2 (namely ACA2 in figure 12), … … and RIS Cell RIS ACA Grid N.
(2) Then, the RIS cell beam scan pattern is set to:
setting a beam scanning pattern of a BS in an RIS Cell, setting M +1 beams in total, wherein the first M beams correspond to the RIS Cell BS DCA Grid IDs (DCA 1, DCA2, DCA3 and DCA 4) one by one, continuously scanning according to the Grid numbering sequence, pointing the M +1 beam W to the RIS, and finally scanning; setting a beam scanning pattern of an RIS in an RIS Cell, setting N beams in total, wherein the N beams correspond to RIS Cell ACA Grid IDs (ACA 1, ACA 2) one by one and carry out continuous scanning according to the Grid numbering sequence.
(3) Then, dividing the non-RIS neighbor region and carrying out annular gridding treatment:
taking the second base station 2 without the RIS Cell as a center of circle, performing annular gridding division on the coverage area of the BS in the RIS-free neighboring Cell according to the RSRP range of the received RIS signal in the RIS Cell, wherein an area with the RSRP between a threshold value of 5 and a threshold value of 6 is called an RIS Cell RIS interference area, which is denoted as an RIS Cell RIS IA, such as grid areas represented by 25 and 26 in fig. 12. The regions with RSRP between threshold 7 and threshold 8 are called RIS Cell RIS interference free regions, denoted non RIS Cell RIS IA, as grid regions represented by 21, 22, 23, 24 in fig. 12. Performing annular gridding treatment (the size of annular gridding is configurable) on an RIS Cell RIS IA by taking a second base station 2 as a center, numbering grids according to the clockwise sequence from near to far away from a BS in a non-RIS neighbor Cell and overlooking the BS in the non-RIS neighbor Cell, wherein the grids are called RIS Cell RIS IA Grid ID, and the values are RIS Cell RIS IA Grid 1 (namely IA1 in figure 12), RIS Cell RIS IA Grid 2 (namely IA2 in figure 12), … … and RIS Cell RIS IA Grid K;
the grids are numbered in the same order, called non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid ID, and are numbered as non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid 1 (i.e. nIA in FIG. 12), non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid 2 (i.e. nIA in FIG. 12), non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid3 (i.e. nIA in FIG. 12), non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid 4 (i.e. nIA in FIG. 12), … …, non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid L, etc.
(4) And finally, setting a beam scanning pattern of the RIS-free neighbor cell:
setting a beam scanning pattern of a BS in a non-RIS neighbor Cell, and setting K + L beams in total, wherein the K beams correspond to RIS Cell RIS IA Grid IDs (IA 1, IA 2) one by one, and the L beams correspond to non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid IDs (nIA 1, nIA, nIA and nIA) one by one.
Defining a system beam scanning period as T, and for an RIS cell, the T time needs to complete the scanning of M BS beams and N RIS beams in sequence, and for an RIS-free neighbor cell, the T time needs to complete the scanning of K + L BS beams.
An inter-BS signaling RIS Cell RIS Beam Time Domain Location is defined and expressed as { X, Y }, wherein X represents the Time Domain starting position of N RIS beams in the RIS Cell in a system scanning period, and Y represents the ending position.
After the Beam scanning pattern of the RIS Cell is set, the BS in the RIS Cell sends an RIS Cell RIS Beam Time Domain Location signaling to the BS in the non-RIS neighbor Cell, the BS in the non-RIS neighbor Cell sets the scanning sequence of K + L beams according to { X, Y }, and the following principle is required to be followed:
principle 1: the time domain positions of K scanning beams corresponding to the RIS Cell RIS IA Grid ID in the scanning period T are not overlapped with { X, Y }, and continuous scanning is carried out according to the Grid numbering sequence of the RIS Cell RIS IA Grid ID.
Principle 2: the L scanning beams corresponding to non-RIS Cell RIS IA Grid ID are scanned according to the Grid number sequence, and discontinuous scanning can be performed to ensure the principle 1. Therefore, the invention can avoid the interference of the side lobe of the RIS reflected wave beam to the adjacent cell as much as possible.
In order to obtain the optimal communication effect, a permutation and combination of the time domain scanning the third area and the time domain scanning the fourth area in the scanning period T by the second base station may be ranked in order, and a permutation and combination in which the time domain scanning the third area and the time domain scanning the second area do not overlap in the scanning period T may be selected. And then calculating the time domain difference value of the time domain scanning each third area and the time domain scanning the second area in each time domain position permutation and combination. And counting the sum of the time domain difference values in each time domain position combination. And sequencing the sum of the time domain differences of each time domain position combination, and obtaining the scanning order of the scanning period T of the second base station at least based on the arrangement mode with the largest sum of the time domain differences. The scanning mode with the maximum interval between the second area and the third area is automatically obtained, the problem of interference of the adjacent area caused by side lobes of RIS reflected beams is further avoided, the user experience of the adjacent area is guaranteed, and the communication quality of the whole environment is improved.
The existing beam scanning method does not consider the problem of neighbor cell interference caused by reflected beam sidelobes after the RIS is deployed, which can cause the performance of users in the neighbor cell interfered areas to be reduced. The utility model provides a RIS system beam scanning method, through the scanning order of adjusting BS beam in RIS district, RIS beam in RIS district and BS beam in no RIS neighborhood, avoid mutual interference between RIS district RIS beam and the no RIS neighborhood BS beam to solve the neighborhood interference problem that RIS reflection beam sidelobe caused, guarantee neighborhood user experience.
