Description

Method and communication device for calculating uplink transmission power
Technical Field
The present application relates to the field of communications, and more particularly, to a method and a communication apparatus for calculating uplink transmission power.
Background
Non-terrestrial networks (non-terrestrial network, NTN), i.e. non-terrestrial communication systems including satellite communication networks, commonly employ frequency division duplex (frequency division duplex, FDD) communication schemes. Because the bandwidth of the NTN system is generally larger and the frequency spectrum is relatively scattered, the interval between the uplink and downlink frequency spectrums is generally larger. In the propagation process of a wireless channel, the intensity of electromagnetic waves is affected by path loss, shadow fading and the like, and the intensity of signals of a transmitting end is reduced when the signals reach a receiving end, so that the transmitting end needs to be controlled to compensate the influence caused by the path loss, shadow fading and the like. At present, the downlink path loss measured by the terminal is commonly used for channel quality evaluation and is used as the basis of uplink transmission power. However, in the NTN system, the difference between the uplink and downlink frequency points is large, and the equivalent uplink path loss by using the downlink path loss may cause the power received by the receiving side to be not expected, and the uplink power may be affected by other factors. Therefore, how to determine the uplink transmit power is a problem to be solved.

Embodiments of the present application are not shown in the figures one by one.
For a clearer understanding of the present application, a brief description of the NTN system will be first provided.
NTN is a non-terrestrial communication system that includes satellite communication networks.
Communication satellites can be classified into three categories according to satellite orbit type:
geostationary orbit (geostationary orbit, GEO), 35,786 km from the earth's surface. GEO orbits have a feature that when an observer views a satellite in that orbit from the ground, the apparent position of the satellite does not change and appears to be stationary in the sky. This is because the orbital period of the stationary orbiting satellite and the earth rotation period coincide exactly. The advantage of this orbit is that the antenna of the ground station can be fixed towards the satellite's location without having to turn the antenna to track the satellite.
The earth orbit (middle earth orbit, MEO) is relatively close to the earth's surface, with orbit heights ranging from 2,000 km to 35,786 km.
Low Earth Orbit (LEO), lower than medium earth orbit, is about 160 to 2,000 km from the ground surface.
The satellite orbit height can reach hundreds of kilometers to tens of thousands of kilometers, so that the communication propagation delay of the satellite communication network is larger. Taking the orbit height of 508km as an example, the one-way propagation delay of the satellite and the satellite-borne point user can reach 1.69ms.
In time division duplex (time division duplex, TDD) communication, a Guard Period (GP) needs to be introduced between uplink and downlink transitions to avoid interference between uplink and downlink signals. The GP includes a downlink-to-uplink guard interval and an uplink-to-downlink guard interval. The protection interval between the downlink and the uplink is larger than the sum of the maximum Round Trip Delay (RTD) generated by the coverage area and the transmit-receive conversion delay of the equipment. For the NTN system, if a TDD communication system is adopted, the GP length needs to be set to be greater than the bidirectional propagation delay, resulting in excessive GP overhead. Thus, NTN systems commonly employ frequency division duplex (frequency division duplex, FDD) communication schemes. Because the bandwidth of the NTN system is generally larger and the frequency spectrum is relatively scattered, the interval between the uplink and downlink frequency spectrums is generally larger.
In the process of wireless signal propagation, the intensity of electromagnetic wave is affected by path loss and shadow fading, so that the intensity of the signal at the transmitting end is reduced when the signal reaches the receiving end, so that the transmitting end needs to appropriately increase the transmitting power to compensate the influence caused by the path loss and shadow fading. And secondly, the higher transmitting power is beneficial to reducing the block error rate and the packet loss rate, improving the transmission reliability, and simultaneously is beneficial to applying a higher-order modulation coding scheme and improving the frequency spectrum efficiency. However, if the transmitting end uses too high transmission power, stronger interference can be generated to other transmission processes of the same time-frequency resource, and higher energy can be consumed, which is unfavorable for energy saving (especially unfavorable for the battery life of the terminal equipment).
In summary, the transmitting end needs to perform transmit power control when transmitting signals, so as to compensate the influence caused by path loss and shadow fading, ensure the quality of the signals received by the receiving end, and meanwhile, inhibit the interference between cells with the same frequency, thereby meeting the network coverage and capacity requirements.
In LTE and NR communications, channel quality is estimated using the downlink pathloss measured by the terminal device, and the estimated channel quality is used as a basis for uplink transmission power. For example, refer to the following calculations of the transmit power of several downlink channels.
The physical random access channel (Physical Random Access Channel, PRACH) transmit power calculation formula is shown in formula (1):

The calculation formula of the transmission power of the physical uplink shared channel (physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH) is shown in formula (2):
P PUSCH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_PUSCHPUSCH ×PL+f(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×M PUSCH )+ΔTF[dBm] (2)
wherein:

The physical uplink control channel (Physical Uplink Control Channel, PUCCH) channel transmission power calculation formula is shown in (3):
P PUCCH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_PUCCH +PL+g(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×M PUCCH )+Δ TF +ΔF_PUCCH(F)[dBm] (3)
wherein:
P PUCCH is the PUCCH uplink sending power of the terminal equipment on the appointed frequency bandA rate;
P CMAX the access network equipment configures the maximum uplink transmitting power of the terminal to the terminal;
P 0_PUCCH an uplink expected receiving power spectrum of access network equipment side of the PUCCH channel;

g (i) is a closed loop power adjustment amount, and the access network device can perform power correction by sending the power adjustment amount through the measured deviation between the uplink power and the expected power.
The channel sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS) transmit power calculation formula is shown in formula (4):
P SRS =min{P CMAX ,P 0_SRSSRS ×PL+h(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×M SRS )}[dBm] (4)
wherein:

PL in all the above formulas is estimated by a downlink Reference Signal (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, SSB) or a channel state information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS), and the calculation formula of PL is shown in formula (5):
PL=reference Signal Power-higher layer filter RSRP (5)
Wherein reference Signal Power is the transmitting power of the downlink reference signal at the access network device side, and RSRP is the signal strength measured by the terminal.
In the above formula, the downlink path loss PL is used as the uplink path loss, and the uplink required transmission power is calculated. However, in NTN systems, the bandwidth is generally larger, and the spectrum is relatively scattered, resulting in a generally larger uplink and downlink spectrum interval. Determining uplink transmission power by using downlink path loss PL equivalent to uplink path loss may cause uplink transmission power to be inconsistent with expectations. For example, assume that a satellite communication system access network device operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz; considering a low-orbit satellite communication system with an orbit height of 508Km, assuming that the scanning angle of the phased array antenna is ±33° x±45°, the communication distance of the satellite is 508Km-841Km. Then, the uplink and downlink free space path loss (free space path loss, FSPL) is calculated according to the free space path loss calculation formula of the following formula (6):
FSPL=92.4+20*log(D)+20*log(M) (6)
wherein, D: the free space propagation distance of the wireless signal is in km; m: communication frequency in GHz.
The free space path loss for different communication distances for this system is shown in fig. 2. As can be seen from fig. 2, with this system, the uplink path loss is 3dB greater than the downlink path loss without considering other factors, but in the prior art, the uplink transmission power is calculated by equivalent of the downlink path loss as the uplink path loss, so the calculated uplink transmission power is 3dB less than the truly required uplink transmission power, and thus the uplink transmission power is insufficient.
And the uplink transmitting power is also affected by the uplink and downlink antenna gains of the terminal equipment and the access network equipment.
Assume that a satellite communication system access network operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz, the downlink wavelength is about 0.0822m, and the uplink wavelength is 0.0577m. In NTN systems, there are both hand-held terminals and phased array terminals. For the handheld terminal, the number of the uplink and downlink antenna array elements is considered to be 1, and the gains of the uplink and downlink arrays are the same.
Assuming that the phased array terminal in the system uses the antenna panels with the same physical area for uplink and downlink, for the phased array antenna panels with the same physical size (e.g., 1m×1 m), the number of antenna elements corresponding to downlink is (1 m/(0.0822/2)) (1 m/(0.0822/2))=576, and the number of antenna elements corresponding to uplink is (1 m/(0.0577/2)) (1 m/(0.0577/2))=1156;
different antenna element numbers will result in a difference in uplink and downlink array gain, which, as analyzed above, is 101g10 (1156) -101g10 (576) =3 dB for the phased array terminal.
It can be seen that the hand-held terminal has the same uplink and downlink array gain, and the phased array terminal uplink array gain is 3dB greater than the downlink array gain.
Assume that a satellite communication system access network operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz, the downlink wavelength is about 0.0822m, and the uplink wavelength is 0.0577m.
Assuming that antenna panels with the same physical area are adopted for uplink and downlink of access network equipment in the system, for phased array antenna panels with the same physical size (for example, 1m×1 m), the number of antenna elements corresponding to downlink is (1 m/(0.0822/2)) (1 m/(0.0822/2))=576, and the number of antenna elements corresponding to uplink is (1 m/(0.0577/2)) (1 m/(0.0577/2))=1156;
different antenna element numbers will result in a difference in uplink and downlink array gain, which, as analyzed above, is 10lg10 (1156) -10lg10 (576) =3 dB for the access network device.
It can be seen that the access network device upstream array gain is 3dB greater than the downstream array gain.
From the above description, it can be seen that, the downlink loss is equivalent to the uplink loss, and the uplink transmission power is calculated, where the calculated uplink transmission power is 3dB smaller than the uplink transmission power actually required, which may result in insufficient uplink transmission power. And the uplink transmitting power is influenced by the uplink and downlink antenna gains of the terminal equipment and the uplink and downlink antenna gains of the access network equipment. In view of this, the present application provides a method for calculating uplink transmission power, where the method considers the influence of the uplink and downlink frequency point difference, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference of the terminal, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference of the access network device on the uplink transmission power.
A method for calculating uplink transmission power provided in the present application is described in detail below with reference to fig. 3, and fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a method 200 for calculating uplink transmission power in the present application. The method 200 may be applied to the application scenario described above, but may also be applied to other communication scenarios, which are not limited herein.
It should also be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the method is described taking the access network device and the terminal device as an execution body of the execution method. By way of example, and not limitation, the execution subject of the execution method may also be a chip, a chip system, or a processor or the like applied to the terminal device and the access network device.
As shown in fig. 3, the method 200 shown in fig. 3 may include S210 to S220. The various steps in method 200 are described in detail below in conjunction with fig. 3.
S210, the terminal equipment acquires the transmission power compensation quantity of the uplink signal, wherein the transmission power compensation quantity comprises an uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity and/or an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity.
S220, the terminal equipment determines the actual transmission power of the uplink signal according to the transmission power compensation quantity.
The terminal equipment determines the actual transmission power of the uplink signal according to the obtained transmission power compensation quantity of the uplink signal, wherein the transmission power compensation quantity comprises an uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity and/or an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity, and the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity and/or the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity can more accurately determine the actual transmission power of the uplink signal, so that the influence caused by insufficient transmission power of the uplink signal is reduced, and the performance of a communication system is improved.
Optionally, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount includes an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device and an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device. Determining the actual transmission power of the uplink signal according to the transmission power compensation amount, including: and determining the actual transmitting power of the uplink signal according to the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the access network equipment and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the terminal equipment.
Optionally, in step S210, the terminal device obtaining the transmission power compensation amount of the uplink signal includes:

and the terminal equipment determines the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the access network equipment according to the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network equipment.
It should be understood that the access network device may send the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network device to the terminal device through signaling. Correspondingly, the terminal equipment receives the signaling from the access network equipment and acquires the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network equipment. Therefore, the terminal equipment determines the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the access network equipment according to the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network equipment.
For example, during initial access, the access network device broadcasts a synchronization signal and a physical broadcast channel (phisical broadcast channel, PBCH) block (synchronization signal and PBCH block, SSB), and the corresponding terminal device searches for the SSB, obtains a master information block (Master information block, MIB) and further obtains a system information block SIB. And the MIB or the SIB can carry the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network equipment.
For another example, in the random access procedure, the access network device may send the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network device to the terminal device through the message 2 or the message 4.
For another example, during the radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) reconfiguration, the access network device may send the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network device to the terminal device through RRC messages.
Optionally, in step S210, the terminal device obtaining the transmission power compensation amount of the uplink signal includes: the terminal equipment receives the transmission power compensation quantity of the uplink signal transmitted by the access network equipment, and the transmission power compensation quantity comprises the following components: the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network equipment and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal equipment.
Specifically, the access network device may calculate the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device, and then send the result obtained by calculation to the terminal device through signaling.
It should be understood that the terminal device may send the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the terminal device to the access network device through signaling. Correspondingly, the access network equipment receives the signaling from the terminal equipment, and acquires the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the terminal equipment. Therefore, the access network equipment determines the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the terminal equipment according to the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the terminal equipment.
For example, the terminal device sends the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the terminal device to the access network device through the capability report message.
From the above description, both the terminal device and the access network device can determine the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device.
How to determine the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device will be specifically described below by using an embodiment.
First, according to the up communication frequency and the down communication frequency, determining the up-down frequency difference compensation amount includes:
calculating an uplink-downlink frequency difference compensation amount according to equation (7):
wherein UL frequency is an uplink communication frequency, and DL frequency is a downlink communication frequency.
Optionally, the uplink communication frequency may be an intermediate frequency point of the uplink communication frequency spectrum, and similarly, the downlink communication frequency may be an intermediate frequency point of the downlink communication frequency spectrum.
It should be understood that, regarding the determination of the uplink communication frequency and the downlink communication frequency, the application is not limited, and for example, the uplink communication frequency and the downlink communication frequency may also be the starting frequency point of the uplink communication spectrum and the starting frequency point of the downlink communication spectrum, respectively.
Secondly, determining an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal equipment according to the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the terminal equipment, including:

Thirdly, determining an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device according to the downlink antenna gain and the uplink antenna gain of the access network device, including:

wherein, gNB DL Ant num is the number of downlink antenna elements of the access network device, and gNB UL Ant num is the number of uplink antenna elements of the access network device.
The uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the terminal equipment and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the access network equipment are unified into a transmission power compensation quantity PL compensation And the relationship thereof satisfies the formula (10):
accordingly, when calculating the actual transmission power of the uplink signal, the actual transmission power of the uplink signal is determined according to the transmission power compensation amount. Such as:
the calculation formula of the transmission power of the uplink PRACH is shown as (11):
P PRACH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_prepreamble +(N pre -1)×Δ step +PL+PL compensation } (11)
the uplink PRACH channel is a channel used by the terminal equipment for initiating random access, and the terminal equipment realizes uplink synchronization and uplink access through the uplink PRACH channel.
The calculation formula of the uplink PUSCH transmission power is shown as (12):
P PUSCH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_PUSCHPUSCH ×(PL+PL compensation )+f(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×MPUSCH+ΔTF (12)
the uplink PUSCH is used as a main uplink data bearing channel of the physical layer and is used for scheduling and transmitting uplink data.
The calculation formula of the uplink PUCCH channel transmission power is shown as (13):
P PUCCH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_PUCCH +PL+PL compensation +g(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×M PUCCH )+ΔTF+ΔF_PUCCH(F) (13)
the uplink PUCCH channel is used for uplink transmission of a scheduling request by a terminal device, and mainly carries parameters such as precoding matrix indicator (precoding matrix indicator, PMI), channel Rank Indicator (RI), channel state indicator (channel quality indicator, CQI), and the like.
The calculation formula of the uplink SRS channel transmission power is shown as (14):
P SRS =min{P CMAX ,P 0_SRS +a SRS ×(PL+PL compensation )+h(i)+10×log 10 (2 μ ×M SRS )} (14)
the uplink SRS channel is used for the access network device to estimate the quality of the uplink channel.
In this embodiment, the amount of offset of the uplink-downlink frequency difference is increased by adding the amount of offset of the uplink-downlink frequency difference to the communication system with the generally larger uplink-downlink frequency spectrum intervalFSPL of uplink and downlink path loss caused by frequency point difference in a communication system with generally larger uplink and downlink spectrum interval is solved; up-down antenna gain difference compensation quantity of newly added access network equipment>The antenna gain difference of access network equipment in a communication system with generally larger uplink and downlink spectrum intervals is solved; up-down antenna gain difference compensation amount of newly added terminal equipment>The uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amounts of different terminal devices may be different, so that uplink performance difference caused by uplink and downlink performance difference of different terminal devices in uplink power control is solved, and the compensation of the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference of the UE level is realized.
For a clearer understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following description is made by way of a specific example.
Assume that a satellite communication system access network operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz; considering a low-orbit satellite communication system with an orbit height of 508Km, assuming that the scanning angle of the phased array antenna is ±33° x±45°, the communication distance of the satellite is 508Km-841Km.
For the system, a center frequency point 3650MHz of a downlink frequency band is selected as a downlink communication frequency, a center frequency point 5170.5MHz of an uplink frequency band is selected as an uplink communication frequency, and then the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity is as follows:
for the access network device in the system, if the downlink antenna array number of the access network device is 1000 and the uplink antenna array number is 1200, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device is:
for a handheld terminal device in the system, the compensation quantity of the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference is as follows:
for the phased array terminal equipment in the system, if the downlink antenna array number of the phased array terminal equipment is 576 and the uplink antenna array number is 1156, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the phased array terminal equipment is:
thus, for a handheld terminal device in the system, PL compensation 3.025-0.79+0=2.235 dB; for phased array termination devices in the system, PL compensation 3.025-0.79-3.1 = -0.865dB.
The above embodiments specifically describe how to determine the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device.
In another implementation manner, in order to reduce the calculation amount of the terminal device, the terminal device may use the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device as the transmission power compensation amount, the access network device transmits the reception power expected by the uplink signal to the terminal device, where the reception power expected by the uplink signal includes the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device, and the terminal device determines the actual transmission power of the uplink signal according to the transmission power compensation amount and the reception power expected by the uplink signal.
Alternatively, the received power expected by the uplink signal may be preconfigured, for example, the received power expected by the uplink signal is already prefabricated by the terminal device at the time of shipment.
It should be understood that the access network device may determine the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount according to the formula (7), the access network device may determine the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device according to the formula (9), and the terminal device determines the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device according to the formula (8), which is specifically referred to the above description and will not be repeated here.
Taking the gain difference compensation quantity of the uplink and downlink antennas of the terminal equipment as the transmission power compensation quantity PL compensation And the relationship thereof satisfies the formula (15):
when the parameter setting of the received power P0 expected by the uplink signal is performed at the access network device side, assuming that the P0 parameter obtained based on the existing network planning method is p0_pre_ori/p0_pusch_ori/p0_pucch_ori/p0_ srs _ori, the P0 parameter to be set is calculated and configured according to the following formulas (16), (17), (18) and (19):
correspondingly, the calculation formula of the transmission power of the uplink PRACH channel is shown in formula (20):
P PRACH =min{P CMAX ,P 0_prepreamble +(N pre -1)×Δ step +PL+PLcompensation (20)
other parameters in the formula. It will be appreciated with reference to the foregoing description that, in order to avoid repetition, no further description is provided herein.
The uplink PUSCH channel transmission power, the uplink PUCCH channel transmission power, and the uplink SRS channel transmission power calculation may refer to an uplink PRACH channel transmission power calculation procedure.
In this embodiment, the access network adjusts the received power P expected by the uplink signal by the difference in antenna gain according to the uplink FSPL and the access network device at the time of network planning 0 The method solves the problems that FSPL of uplink and downlink path loss and uplink and downlink antenna gain difference of access network equipment caused by frequency point difference in a communication system with generally larger uplink and downlink frequency spectrum interval are solved, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of terminal equipment is newly addedThe uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amounts of different terminal devices may be different, so that uplink performance difference caused by uplink and downlink performance difference of different terminals in uplink power control is solved, and the compensation of the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference of the UE level is realized.
For a clearer understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following description is made by way of a specific example.
Assume that a satellite communication system access network operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz; considering a low-orbit satellite communication system with an orbit height of 508Km, assuming that the scanning angle of the phased array antenna is ±33° x±45°, the communication distance of the satellite is 508Km-841Km.
For the system, a center frequency point 3650MHz of a downlink frequency band is selected as a downlink communication frequency point, a center frequency point 5170.5MHz of an uplink frequency band is selected as an uplink communication frequency point, and the compensation amount of the uplink frequency difference is as follows:
for the access network device in the system, if the downlink antenna array number of the access network device is 1000 and the uplink antenna array number is 1200, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device is:
then for the P0 parameter set in the system, if an initial P 0_pre_ori And P 0_pusch_ori Are all-100 dBm, alpha PUSCH All 0.9, then:
P 0_pre =-100dBm-0.79dB+3.025dB=-97.765dBm
P 0_PUSCH =-100dBm+0.9*(-0.79dB+3.025dB)=-97.9885dBm
for a handheld terminal in a system,
for a phased array terminal in the system, if the number of downlink antenna elements is 576 and the number of uplink antenna elements is 1156, then
Thus, for a handheld terminal in the system, PL compensation OdB; for phased array terminals in the system, PL compensation Is-3.1 dB.
The above two embodiments describe how the actual transmission power of the uplink signal is determined based on the transmission power offset. The amount of transmit power compensation may also be used when selecting an initial camping cell for the terminal device. Specifically, in the prior art, the terminal device determines whether a cell can be camped on to adopt an S criterion, where the S criterion is as follows:
Srxlev>OSqual>0
Wherein: srxlev is a cell selection reception level value and square is a cell selection signal quality.
Srxlev is determined according to the following formula (21):
Qrxlevmeas-(Qrxlevmin+Qrxlevminoffset)-Pcompensation-Qoffset temp (21)
square is determined according to the following formula (22):
Qqualmeas-(Qqualmin+Qqualminoffset)-Qoffset temp (22)
the meaning of each parameter in the above formula is shown in table 1:
table 1S criterion parameter meanings
/>
When the cell coverage planning is performed, the access network device plans a minimum receiving level Qrxlevmin for the PEMAX1 to reside according to the maximum transmitting capability supported by all the terminal devices. However, for a part of terminal equipment with poor uplink transmission capability, the maximum transmission power PowerClass is smaller than PEMAX1, and if Qrxlevmin still planned in advance is still used as a decision threshold, the uplink transmission power of the terminal equipment is insufficient during access, so that access failure is caused. Thus, pcompensation is introduced in the protocol to compensate for differences in the transmission capabilities of the terminal devices. At present, pcompensation is only determined according to downlink loss, but difference of uplink and downlink loss, difference of uplink and downlink antenna gains of terminal equipment and difference of uplink and downlink antenna gains of access network equipment are not fully considered, so that the problem of inaccurate judgment of the terminal equipment when judging whether the terminal equipment can reside in a certain cell is caused.
In another embodiment, for a terminal cell camping scene, by introducing an uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount and an uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount into an S criterion decision formula, the problem of inaccurate decision of the initial camping cell selection of the terminal device in the communication system with the generally larger uplink and downlink frequency spectrum interval is solved.
The uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation quantity, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the terminal equipment and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation quantity of the access network equipment are unified into a transmission power compensation quantity PL compensation And the relationship thereof satisfies the formula (10):
it should be understood that the calculation methods of the uplink and downlink frequency difference compensation amount, the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the terminal device, and the uplink and downlink antenna gain difference compensation amount of the access network device may refer to the above calculation processes, and are not described herein again.
Correspondingly, the terminal equipment residence decision threshold formula is as follows:
terminal residence condition: srxlev > 0 AND square > 0
Wherein,
Srxlev=Qrxlevmeas-PL compensation -(Qrxlevmin+Qrxlevminoffset)-Pcompensation-Qoffsettemp,
square can be calculated with reference to equation (22).
In this embodiment, for the problem of inaccurate residence decision of the terminal device in the communication system with generally larger uplink and downlink spectrum intervals, the method is implemented by introducing the following formula into the S-criterion calculation formulaThe compensation quantity is achieved, and the terminal residence judgment is more accurate under the condition that the original network end Qrxlevmin parameter planning is not required to be changed.
For a clearer understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following description is made by way of a specific example.
Assume that a satellite communication system access network operates in a frequency band: downlink 3600-3700MHz and uplink 5091-5250MHz; considering a low-orbit satellite communication system with an orbit height of 508Km, assuming that the scanning angle of the phased array antenna is ±33° x±45°, the communication distance of the satellite is 508Km-841Km.
For the system, the central frequency point 3650MHz of the downlink frequency band is selected as the downlink communication frequency point, and the central frequency point 5170.5MHz of the uplink frequency band is selected as the uplink communication frequency point

X.+ -. 45. The communication distance of the satellite is 508km to 841km.
For the system, the central frequency point 3650MHz of the downlink frequency band is selected as the downlink communication frequency point, and the central frequency point 5170.5MHz of the uplink frequency band is selected as the uplink communication frequency point
For the access network device in the system, if the number of downlink antenna elements is 1000 and the number of uplink antenna elements is 1200, then
Then for the Qrxlevmin parameter set in the system, if the original Qrxlevmin is-100 dBm:
Qrxlevmin=-100dBm-0.79dB+3.025dB=-97.765dBm
For a handheld terminal in a system,
