As shown in Fig. 1, the embodiment of the invention provides A channel state information obtaining method, the method comprising:

步驟101:網路設備接收終端回饋的CSI,其中,該CSI至少包括第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊,該第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊用於指示Q個天線埠在發送導頻信號的A個天線埠中的索引,該第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊是根據A個天線埠的通道估計值確定的Q個天線埠後,根據該Q個天線埠確定出的,LQA,L為該網路設備對該終端發送下行資料時採用的等級指示RI的取值,或者,L為該終端確定的通道等級指示RI的取值。 Step 101: The network device receives the CSI fed back by the terminal, where the CSI includes at least a first level precoding matrix indication information, where the first level precoding matrix indication information is used to indicate that the Q antennas are transmitting the pilot signal. An index in the antenna 埠, the first-stage precoding matrix indication information is Q antennas determined according to the channel estimation values of the A antennas, and determined according to the Q antennas, L Q A, L is the value of the level indication RI used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal, or L is the value of the channel level indication RI determined by the terminal.

需要說明的是,終端確定出的RI的取值的方法有多種,本發明實施例對此並不限定。終端在確定出RI的取值之後,還可能會將RI的取值作為CSI的一部分發送給網路設備,網路設備可以根據接收到RI的取值確定對終端發送下行資料時採用的資料層(Layer)及資料層數。 It should be noted that there are various methods for determining the value of the RI determined by the terminal, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention. After determining the value of the RI, the terminal may also send the value of the RI to the network device as part of the CSI.

舉例來說,在SU-MIMO(Single-User MIMO,單使用者MIMO)系統中,網路設備對終端發送下行資料時採用的資料層及資料層數一般與終端發送的為RI的取值相等,此時L為該網路設備對該終端發送下行資料時採用的等級指示RI的取值,或者L為該終端確定的通道等級指示RI的取值。 For example, in a SU-MIMO (Single-User MIMO) system, the data layer and the data layer used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal are generally equal to the value of the RI sent by the terminal. At this time, L is the value of the RI used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal, or L is the value of the channel level indication RI determined by the terminal.

舉例來說,在MU-MIMO(Multi-User MIMO,多使用者 MIMO)系統中,網路設備對終端發送下行資料時採用的資料層及資料層數有可能與終端發送的RI的取值不相等,此時L為該終端確定的通道等級指示RI的取值。 For example, in MU-MIMO (Multi-User MIMO, multi-user In the MIMO system, the data layer and the data layer used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal may not be equal to the value of the RI sent by the terminal. In this case, L is the value of the channel level indication RI determined by the terminal. .

Each antenna 埠 corresponds to all or part of the antennas of the network device. If more spatial beam directions need to be formed than configurable antenna parameters, multiple sets of pilot processes, such as LTE CSI-RS process (CSI-RS process), may be set. ) transmitting all pilot processes with orthogonal time-frequency resources. At the same time, all spatial beam directions corresponding to the antennas included in all pilot processes should cover the entire space that needs to be covered, as shown in Figure 2. The dotted line 201 in Fig. 2 is the spatial range that all spatial beam directions should cover, and the solid line 202 is a spatial beam direction coverage. The range of space.

在步驟二中,網路設備發送導頻信號時,所有導頻進程包含的A個天線埠的集合為ω A ={1,2,…,A},對於任意天線埠a ω A 佔用M 1個時頻資源。下麵以天線埠a ω A ,且天線埠a對應的天線為網路設備的所有天線為例進行描述。 In step 2, when the network device sends the pilot signal, the set of A antennas included in all pilot processes is ω A = {1, 2, ..., A }, for any antenna 埠a ω A occupies M 1 time-frequency resource. Below is the antenna 埠a ω A , and the antenna corresponding to the antenna 埠a is described as an example of all antennas of the network device.

那麼該天線埠a對應的波束的三維空間波束賦形向量為: Then the three-dimensional spatial beamforming vector of the beam corresponding to the antenna 埠a is:

那麼該天線埠a在第m個時頻資源上發送的經過所有天線波束賦形的導頻信號向量為s (a,m)=w (a) p (a,m),其中,p (a,m)為在第m個時頻資源上的導頻符號。 Then, the pilot signal vector of the antenna 埠a transmitted on the mth time-frequency resource and subjected to all antenna beamforming is s ( a , m ) = w ( a ) p ( a , m ) , where p ( a , m ) is the pilot symbol on the mth time-frequency resource.

具體的,如圖3所示,圖3示意出了網路設備中天線埠a在所有N T 個天線上發送導頻信號的過程。圖3中,天線埠a在第m個時頻資源上的導頻符號p (a,m),映射到每根天線時,每根天線會根據賦形權重係數對導頻符號p (a,m)進行相乘運算,形成經過所有天線波束賦形的導頻信號向量。圖3中,為第j個天線在天線埠a中對應的賦形權重係數,為第j個天線在天線埠a中對應的時頻資源上發送的導頻信號,1j N T Specifically, shown in Figure 3, Figure 3 illustrates a process of a network device, an antenna port transmits a pilot signal in all N T antennas. In FIG. 3, when the pilot symbol p ( a , m ) of the antenna 埠a on the mth time-frequency resource is mapped to each antenna, each antenna will be based on the shaped weight coefficient on the pilot symbol p ( a , m ) performing a multiplication operation to form a pilot signal vector that is shaped by all antenna beams. In Figure 3, The corresponding weighting factor for the jth antenna in the antenna 埠a , a pilot signal transmitted on the corresponding time-frequency resource of the j-th antenna in the antenna 埠a , 1 j N T .

在步驟二中,天線埠a在第m個時頻資源上發送的導頻信號,也可以通過形成該天線埠a對應的空間波束方向上的部分天線發送,例如,針對交叉極化二維均勻矩形天線陣列的天線埠的一種設計實現中,全部或部分相同極化方向的天線。 In step 2, the pilot signal transmitted by the antenna 埠a on the mth time-frequency resource may also be transmitted through a part of the antenna in the spatial beam direction corresponding to the antenna 埠a , for example, two-dimensionally uniform for cross-polarization. A design of an antenna 埠 of a rectangular antenna array in which all or part of the antennas of the same polarization direction are used.

當天線埠a對應的天線為網路設備的部分天線時,波束賦形 向量w (a)僅在對應的部分天線上存在賦形權重係數,其中,為第j個參與形成天線埠a的天線的賦形權重係數,可以認為其它未參與形成天線埠a的天線的賦形權重係數為0。例如交叉極化二維均勻矩形天線陣列的天線埠的設計實現中,任意天線埠a i ,a j ω A 由相同極化方向的天線發送形成對應的空間波束方向,波束賦形向量可以寫作如下形式: When the antenna corresponding to the antenna 埠a is a partial antenna of the network device, the beamforming vector w ( a ) only has a shaping weight coefficient on the corresponding partial antenna. ,among them, For the jth weighting coefficient of the antenna participating in the formation of the antenna 埠a , it can be considered that the shaping weight coefficient of the other antenna not participating in the formation of the antenna 埠a is zero. For example, in the design implementation of an antenna 埠 of a cross-polarized two-dimensional uniform rectangular antenna array, any antenna 埠a i , a j ω A is transmitted by antennas of the same polarization direction to form corresponding spatial beam directions. The beamforming vector can be written as follows:

其中分別表示兩個極化方向對應天線埠a i a j 的波束賦形向量,分別表示天線埠a i 對應的極化方向上的第一維度和第二維度的波束賦形向量,分別表示天線埠a j 對應的極化方向上的第一維度和第二維度的波束賦形向量。 among them , Representing the beamforming vectors of the two polarization directions corresponding to the antennas 埠a i , a j , respectively , Representing the beamforming vectors of the first dimension and the second dimension in the polarization direction corresponding to the antenna 埠a i , respectively, , The beamforming vectors of the first dimension and the second dimension in the polarization direction corresponding to the antenna 埠a j are respectively indicated.

步驟三、網路設備根據A個天線埠中每個天線埠的三維空間波束賦形向量以及導頻信號所用的時頻資源,對導頻信號進行波束賦形並發送。 Step 3: The network device performs beamforming and transmitting on the pilot signal according to the three-dimensional spatial beamforming vector of each antenna A of the A antennas and the time-frequency resources used by the pilot signals.

在步驟三中,網路設備將每個天線埠的導頻信號通過與該天線埠對應的天線發送。 In step 3, the network device transmits the pilot signal of each antenna 通过 through the antenna corresponding to the antenna 埠.

根據以上描述的過程,網路設備通過將每個天線埠對應一個空間波束方向,可以使得終端對MIMO通道矩陣的測量轉化為對空間波束方向的測量和選擇,降低了終端CSI測量導頻的開銷。 According to the process described above, the network device can convert the measurement of the MIMO channel matrix into the measurement and selection of the spatial beam direction by reducing the spatial beam direction of each antenna, thereby reducing the overhead of the terminal CSI measurement pilot. .

步驟101中,網路設備接收到的CSI至少包括第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊,網路設備根據第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊可以確定出在發送導頻信號的A個天線埠中,終端選取的是哪Q個天線埠,從而根據終 端選擇的Q個天線埠所對應的Q個波束賦形向量形成第一級預編碼矩陣。 In step 101, the CSI received by the network device includes at least a first-level precoding matrix indication information, and the network device can determine, according to the first-level precoding matrix indication information, that the antenna is in the A antenna that transmits the pilot signal, and the terminal Which Q antenna is selected, so according to the end The Q beamforming vectors corresponding to the Q antennas selected by the terminal form a first level precoding matrix.

進一步地,網路設備接收到的CSI中還可包括以下資訊之一或組合:第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊,第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊用於指示第二級預編碼矩陣在第二級碼本集合中的索引。第二級預編碼矩陣是功率歸一化的Q×L維的矩陣,本發明實施例中採用V L 表示。第二級預編碼矩陣V L 可以由計算奇異值分解(Singular Value Decomposition,SVD)獲得,對應最大L個奇異值的L個奇異向量組成的矩陣並進行功率歸一化和量化處理得到,也可以根據第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊與RI從第二級碼本集合中指示出。 Further, the CSI received by the network device may further include one or a combination of the following information: the second level precoding matrix indication information, and the second level precoding matrix indication information is used to indicate that the second level precoding matrix is in the second The index in the codebook collection. The second-stage precoding matrix is a power-normalized Q × L -dimensional matrix, which is represented by V L in the embodiment of the present invention. The second-stage precoding matrix V L can be obtained by calculating a Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), a matrix composed of L singular vectors corresponding to the largest L singular values, and performing power normalization and quantization processing, or The information and the RI are indicated from the second level codebook set according to the second level precoding matrix.

RI,該RI為終端上報給網路設備的通道等級指示,終端通過上報RI使得網路設備能夠確定終端支援的物理下行共用通道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)的有效的資料層數。終端確定出上報給網路設備的等級指示的方法有多種,本發明實施例對此並不限定,在此不再贅述。 RI, the RI is a channel level indication reported by the terminal to the network device, and the terminal can determine the effective data layer of the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) supported by the terminal by reporting the RI. The method for determining the level indication reported by the terminal to the network device is various, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention, and details are not described herein again.

通道品質指示CQI,CQI為信干噪比(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio,SINR)的量化值。根據以下方式確定該CQI:根據第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊確定該Q個天線埠對應的Q個通道估計值所構成的第一等效通道,根據該第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊和RI確定第二級預編碼矩陣,根據該第一等效通道和該第二級預編碼矩陣確定第二等效通道,根據該第二等效通道、干擾信號的功率以及雜訊信號的功率確定SINR,根據該SINR確定出該CQI。 The channel quality indicates CQI, and the CQI is a quantized value of Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR).

當等級為1時,終端選擇的Q個天線埠為a 1,a 2,…,a Q ,第二級預編碼矩陣為Q×1維的列向量v 1,其中N R 是終端的接收天線數,SINR可根據以下公式計算得到: When the level is 1, the Q antennas selected by the terminal are a 1 , a 2 , ..., a Q , and the second-stage precoding matrix is a Q × 1 dimensional column vector v 1 , where N R is the receiving antenna of the terminal The number, SINR can be calculated according to the following formula:

其中,γ 1為計算得到的SINR,為干擾信號的功率,為雜訊信號的功率,∥.∥表示矩陣的範數,為第一等效通道,維數為N R ×Q,它是由終端通過對A個天線埠直接測量並選擇而獲得的,其中為第a(a ω A )個天線埠的通道估計值,維數為N R ×1。H為一個子載波上的通道矩陣,維數是N R ×N T Where γ 1 is the calculated SINR, To interfere with the power of the signal, For the power of the noise signal, ∥. ∥ denotes the norm of the matrix, For the first equivalent channel, the dimension is N R × Q , which is obtained by the terminal directly measuring and selecting the A antennas, wherein For the first a ( a ω A ) The estimated channel value of the antenna ,, the dimension is N R ×1. H is the channel matrix on one subcarrier, and the dimension is N R × N T .

一般情況下,網路設備接收到的終端回饋的CSI包括第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊、終端選擇的天線埠的數量Q、第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊、RI、CQI等。當網路設備指定了網路設備對該終端發送下行資料時採用的等級指示RI的取值為1,且指定了終端在測量A個天線埠後只能選擇1個天線埠,即Q=1,此時終端回饋的CSI中可以不包括終端選擇的天線埠的數量Q,以及第二級預編碼矩陣指示資訊。 Generally, the CSI of the terminal feedback received by the network device includes the first-level precoding matrix indication information, the number Q of antennas selected by the terminal, the second-level precoding matrix indication information, the RI, the CQI, and the like. When the network device specifies that the network device sends downlink data to the terminal, the value of the RI indicator is 1, and the terminal is configured to select only one antenna after measuring A antennas, that is, Q=1. In this case, the CSI of the terminal feedback may not include the number Q of antennas selected by the terminal, and the second-level precoding matrix indication information.

在步驟102中,網路設備在接收到終端發送的包括第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊的CSI之後,根據第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊,確定出在發送導頻信號的A個天線埠中,終端選擇的Q個天線埠,並根據終端選擇的Q個天線埠所對應的Q個波束賦形向量形成第一級預編碼矩陣。 In step 102, after receiving the CSI including the first-level precoding matrix indication information sent by the terminal, the network device determines, according to the first-level precoding matrix indication information, that the antenna antenna is transmitting the pilot signal. The Q antennas selected by the terminal are formed, and the first level precoding matrix is formed according to the Q beamforming vectors corresponding to the Q antennas selected by the terminal.

具體的,第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊指示的終端選取的Q個天線埠為a 1,a 2,…,a Q ,那麼網路設備獲得的第一級預編碼矩陣為: Specifically, the first stage precoding matrix indicates that the Q antennas selected by the terminal indicated by the information are a 1 , a 2 , . . . , a Q , and then the first level precoding matrix obtained by the network device is:

其中,W 1為第一級預編碼矩陣,w (a)為天線埠a(a ω A )對應的波束賦形向量。 Where W 1 is the first-stage precoding matrix, w ( a ) is the antenna 埠a ( a ω A ) Corresponding beamforming vector.

在交叉極化二維均勻矩形天線陣列的天線埠的設計實現中,任意一個天線埠由相同極化方向的天線發送形成對應的空間波束方向,且天線序號按一個極化方向上的某一維度排序,然後是另一個極化方向上的相同維度排序,第一級預編碼矩陣可以進一步寫為以下形式: In the design implementation of the antenna 埠 of the cross-polarized two-dimensional uniform rectangular antenna array, any one antenna 发送 is transmitted by the same polarization direction antenna to form a corresponding spatial beam direction, and the antenna serial number is in a certain dimension in one polarization direction. Sorting, then sorting by the same dimension in another polarization direction, the first level precoding matrix can be further written as:

這裡,天線埠a 1,…,a i 對應一個極化方向,天線埠a i+1,…,a Q 對應另一個極化方向。 Here, the antennas 埠a 1 , . . . , a i correspond to one polarization direction, and the antennas 埠a i +1 , . . . , a Q correspond to the other polarization direction.

在步驟103中,網路設備根據第一級預編碼矩陣確定發送預編碼矩陣。 In step 103, the network device determines to transmit the precoding matrix according to the first level precoding matrix.

具體的,網路設備可根據以下公式確定發送預編碼矩陣: Specifically, the network device can determine the sending precoding matrix according to the following formula:

其中,W為發送預編碼矩陣,W 1為第一級預編碼矩陣,維數為N T ×QV L 為第二級預編碼矩陣,維數為Q×L,其中L為RI的值,為功率歸一化因數。 Where W is the transmission precoding matrix, W 1 is the first level precoding matrix, the dimension is N T × Q , V L is the second level precoding matrix, and the dimension is Q × L , where L is the value of RI , Normalize the factor for power.

網路設備確定出發送預編碼矩陣之後,可以根據發送預編碼矩陣重構網路設備到終端的通道矩陣。當網路設備需要重構網路設備到終端的通道矩陣時,網路設備可根據以下公式確定網路設備到終端的通道矩陣: After the network device determines that the precoding matrix is transmitted, the network device to the channel matrix of the terminal may be reconstructed according to the sending precoding matrix. When the network device needs to reconstruct the channel matrix of the network device to the terminal, the network device can determine the channel matrix of the network device to the terminal according to the following formula:

其中,為通道矩陣,W為發送預編碼矩陣。 among them, For the channel matrix, W is the transmit precoding matrix.

基於上面描述的網路設備在A個天線埠中發送的導頻信號,每個天線埠對應一個空間波束方向,因此終端可以將MIMO通道矩陣測量轉化為測量每個終端所處的空間波束方向的問題。終端可以根據實際情況選擇多個空間波束方向,並可根據選擇的多個空間波束計算通道品質(CQI)。 通常終端選擇的空間波束的數目遠遠小於網路設備的大規模天線數,因此可以降低終端CSI測量導頻開銷。 Based on the pilot signals transmitted by the network device in the A antenna ports described above, each antenna frame corresponds to a spatial beam direction, so the terminal can convert the MIMO channel matrix measurement into a spatial beam direction in which each terminal is located. problem. The terminal can select multiple spatial beam directions according to actual conditions, and can calculate channel quality (CQI) according to selected multiple spatial beams. Generally, the number of spatial beams selected by the terminal is much smaller than the number of large-scale antennas of the network device, so that the pilot CSI measurement pilot overhead can be reduced.

如圖4所示,本發明實施例提供一種通道狀態資訊回饋方法,該方法包括: As shown in FIG. 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides a channel state information feedback method, where the method includes:

步驟401:終端根據接收到的導頻信號進行通道估計,得到A個天線埠的通道估計值,該A個天線埠為網路設備發送導頻信號的A個天線埠。 Step 401: The terminal performs channel estimation according to the received pilot signal to obtain channel estimation values of the A antennas, and the A antennas are A antennas for transmitting the pilot signals by the network device.

步驟402:該終端根據該A個天線埠的通道估計值確定Q個天線埠,其中,LQA,L為該網路設備對該終端發送下行資料時採用的等級指示RI的取值,或者,L為該終端確定的通道等級指示RI的取值。 Step 402: The terminal determines Q antennas according to channel estimation values of the A antennas, where L Q A, L is the value of the level indication RI used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal, or L is the value of the channel level indication RI determined by the terminal.

需要說明的是,終端確定出的RI的取值的方法有多種,本發明實施例對此並不限定。 It should be noted that there are various methods for determining the value of the RI determined by the terminal, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention.

L的取值可以參考步驟101中的描述,在此不再贅述。 For the value of L, refer to the description in step 101, and details are not described herein again.

步驟403:該終端根據該Q個天線埠確定第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊,並將包含該第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊的CSI回饋給網路設備,該第一級預編碼矩陣指示資訊用於指示該Q個天線埠在發送導頻信號的A 個天線埠中的索引。 Step 403: The terminal determines, according to the Q antennas, the first level precoding matrix indication information, and feeds the CSI including the first level precoding matrix indication information to the network device, where the first level precoding matrix indicates information. A for indicating that the Q antennas are transmitting a pilot signal The index in the antenna 埠.

上述流程中,網路設備發送導頻信號的過程可如前述圖1所述,也可採用其它方式發送導頻信號,本發明實施例對此不作限制。 In the foregoing process, the process of transmitting the pilot signal by the network device may be as described in FIG. 1 above, and the pilot signal may be sent in other manners, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

本發明實施例中,終端的接收天線數為N R N R 大於等於1,同時,佔用第m個時頻資源的天線埠a屬於網路設備的A個天線埠的集合ω A ={1,2,…,A},且天線埠a對應的天線為網路設備中所有的N T 根發射天線,該N T 根發射天線為同極化的二維均勻矩形陣列;或者發射天線為交叉極化二維均勻矩形陣列,天線埠a對應的天線為網路設備中相同的極化方向天線。同時,天線埠a對應的導頻符號為歸一化功率。 In the embodiment of the present invention, the number of receiving antennas of the terminal is N R , N R is greater than or equal to 1, and the antenna 埠a occupying the mth time-frequency resource belongs to the set of A antennas of the network device ω A ={1 , 2, ..., a}, and the antenna port corresponding to a transmitting antenna to all network devices N T antennas, the transmit antenna N T is a two-dimensional rectangular array with uniform polarization; transmitting antenna or as a cross The two-dimensional uniform rectangular array is polarized, and the antenna corresponding to the antenna 埠a is the same polarization direction antenna in the network device. At the same time, the pilot symbol corresponding to the antenna 埠a is the normalized power.

在步驟401中,終端接收到的導頻信號為網路設備通過A個天線埠發送,其中,A個天線埠中的每個天線埠對應一個空間波束方向,每個天線埠佔用至少一個時頻資源,當多個天線埠採用碼分複用方式時,每個天線埠佔用的時頻資源可大於1個。同時每個天線埠對應的空間波束方向對應的三維空間波束賦形向量是根據該天線埠在第一維度上的波束賦形向量,以及在第二維度上的波束賦形向量確定的,其中,第一維度為垂直維度、第二維度為水準維度,或者,第一維度為水準維度、第二維度為垂直維度。 In step 401, the pilot signal received by the terminal is sent by the network device through A antennas, wherein each of the antennas A corresponds to a spatial beam direction, and each antenna 埠 occupies at least one time frequency. Resources, when multiple antennas are used in code division multiplexing, each antenna can occupy more than one time-frequency resource. At the same time, the three-dimensional spatial beamforming vector corresponding to the spatial beam direction of each antenna 是 is determined according to the beamforming vector of the antenna 第一 in the first dimension and the beamforming vector in the second dimension, wherein The first dimension is a vertical dimension, the second dimension is a level dimension, or the first dimension is a level dimension and the second dimension is a vertical dimension.

天線埠a(a ω A )在第m個時頻資源上發送的經過所有天線波束賦形的導頻信號向量為s (a,m)=w (a) p (a,m),其中,w (a)為天線埠a對應的波束的三維空間波束賦形向量,p (a,m)為在第m個時頻資源上的導頻符號。此時,網路設備到終端在一個子載波上的通道矩陣為N R ×N T 維的矩陣H。終端在天線埠a佔用的第m個時頻資源上,接收到的導頻信號為N R ×1維的 向量: Antenna 埠a ( a ω A ) The pilot signal vector over all antenna beamforming transmitted on the mth time-frequency resource is s ( a , m ) = w ( a ) p ( a , m ) , where w ( a ) is The three-dimensional spatial beamforming vector of the beam corresponding to the antenna 埠a , p ( a , m ) is the pilot symbol on the mth time-frequency resource. At this time, the channel matrix of the network device to the terminal on one subcarrier is a matrix H of N R × N T dimensions. The terminal receives the pilot signal as a vector of N R ×1 dimension on the mth time-frequency resource occupied by the antenna 埠a :

其中,s (a,m)為天線埠a在第m個時頻資源上發送的經過所有天線波束賦形的N T ×1維的導頻信號向量,i (a,m)n (a,m)分別為N R ×1維的干擾信號向量和雜訊信號向量。 Where s ( a , m ) is the N T ×1 dimensional pilot signal vector that is transmitted by the antenna 埠a on the mth time-frequency resource and is shaped by all antenna beams, i ( a , m ) , n ( a , m ) are N R × 1 dimensional interference signal vectors and noise signal vectors, respectively.

綜合每個天線埠佔用的時頻資源的上的導頻信號,終端得到網路設備發送導頻信號的A個天線埠對應的A個通道估計值。天線埠a的通道估計值為: Combining the pilot signals on the time-frequency resources occupied by each antenna, the terminal obtains the A channel estimation values corresponding to the A antennas of the network device to transmit the pilot signals. The channel estimate for antenna 埠a is:

其中,w (a)為天線埠a的三維空間波束賦形向量,E (a)為天線埠a的通道估計誤差矩陣,a ω A 。終端得到A個天線埠的通道估計值,…,Wherein, w (a) an antenna port of a three-dimensional beamforming vectors, E (a) is an antenna port of a channel estimation error matrix, a ω A . The terminal obtains the channel estimation value of A antenna 埠 , ,..., .

在步驟402中,終端需要根據A個天線埠的通道估計值,從A個天線埠中選擇Q個天線埠,以便確定出CSI回饋給網路設備。 In step 402, the terminal needs to select Q antennas from the A antennas according to the channel estimation values of the A antennas to determine the CSI feedback to the network device.

考慮到終端在根據選擇的Q個天線埠確定CSI的計算複雜度,終端可以只選擇一個天線埠去確定CSI。但是,考慮到傳播路徑上存在的很多散射體,終端接收到的導頻信號很可能是經過多條傳播路徑的信號的疊加,因此為了獲得準確性較高的CSI,需要終端在天線埠的數量的取值範圍內,確定所有可能的天線埠組合,並在所有可能的天線埠組合中確定使得終端與網路設備之間的通道輸送量或容量或終端的導頻信號接收功率最大的Q個天線埠,其中,每種可能的天線埠組合對應的通道輸送量或容量或該終端的導頻信號接收功率根據該種可能的天線埠組合對應的通道估 計值確定。 Considering that the terminal determines the computational complexity of CSI according to the selected Q antennas, the terminal can select only one antenna to determine the CSI. However, considering many scatterers present on the propagation path, the pilot signal received by the terminal is likely to be a superposition of signals passing through multiple propagation paths. Therefore, in order to obtain a highly accurate CSI, the number of terminals in the antenna 需要 is required. Within the range of values, all possible antenna combinations are determined, and among all possible antenna combinations, Q channels that maximize the channel throughput or capacity between the terminal and the network device or the pilot signal received by the terminal are determined. Antenna 埠, wherein each possible antenna 埠 combination corresponding channel throughput or capacity or pilot signal received power of the terminal is estimated according to the channel corresponding to the possible antenna 埠 combination The value is determined.

天線埠的數量的取值範圍內一般為大於或等於通道的等級L,且小於或等於A,網路設備也可以指定天線埠的數量的取值範圍的上限。例如,網路設備指定天線埠的數量的取值範圍為Q maxThe value of the number of antennas is generally greater than or equal to the level L of the channel and less than or equal to A. The network device can also specify the upper limit of the range of the number of antennas. For example, the number of antennas specified by the network device ranges from Q max .

同時,網路設備也可以為終端指定出需要選擇的天線埠的數量,例如,指定的天線埠的數量為Q,且LQA,此時終端只需在A個天線埠中選擇出使得終端與網路設備之間的通道輸送量或容量或終端的信號接收功率最大時的Q個天線埠組合。網路設備未指定需要選擇的天線埠的數量或天線埠的數量的取值範圍的上限時,終端選擇的天線埠的數量的取值範圍的下限為大於或等於L,取值範圍的上限為網路設備發送導頻信號的天線埠數量,即小於或等於A。 At the same time, the network device can also specify the number of antenna ports to be selected for the terminal, for example, the number of designated antenna ports is Q, and L Q A. At this time, the terminal only needs to select a combination of Q antennas in the A antennas to make the channel transmission capacity or capacity between the terminal and the network device or the signal receiving power of the terminal to be the largest. When the network device does not specify the upper limit of the number of antennas or the number of antennas to be selected, the lower limit of the range of the number of antennas selected by the terminal is greater than or equal to L, and the upper limit of the range is The number of antennas that the network device sends the pilot signal, that is, less than or equal to A.

無論網路設備是否為終端指定出需要選擇的天線埠的數量,在A個天線埠中都有很多種天線埠的組合供終端選擇。下面以計算終端與網路設備之間的輸送量或容量為例,終端在A個天線埠中選擇出輸送量或容量最大的Q個天線埠的集合ω Q 根據以下方法確定: Regardless of whether the network device specifies the number of antenna ports to be selected for the terminal, there are many combinations of antenna ports in the A antenna ports for terminal selection. Taking the calculation of the amount or capacity of the terminal and the network device as an example, the terminal selects the set ω Q of the Q antennas with the largest amount of transmission or capacity among the A antennas, according to the following method:

其中,為計算終端與網路設備之間的輸送量或容量的函數,該函數為本領域技術人員公知的函數,在此不再詳細描述該函數,只描述該函數的功能,Q max為終端選擇的天線埠的數量的取值範圍的上限,L Q max Aω k 表示在A個天線埠中選擇k個天線埠的集合,Ω k 表示在A個天線埠中選擇k個天線埠時所有可能的ω k 的集合, L k Q max表示在A個天線埠中選擇的k個天線埠對應的通道估計值構成的第一等效通道,V L 可以由計算的奇異值分解獲得,對應最大L個奇異值的L個奇異向量組成的矩陣並進行功率歸一化和量化處理得到,也可以從第二級碼本集合中選擇,i為干擾信號向量,n為雜訊信號向量,P'為預編碼矩陣的功率歸一化因數。 among them, In order to calculate the function of the amount or capacity of the transmission between the terminal and the network device, the function is a function well known to those skilled in the art, and the function will not be described in detail herein, only the function of the function will be described, and Q max is selected by the terminal. The upper limit of the range of the number of antennas, L Q max A , ω k denotes a set of k antennas selected among A antennas, and Ω k denotes a set of all possible ω k when k antennas are selected among A antennas, L k Q max , Indicates the first equivalent channel formed by the channel estimation values corresponding to the k antennas selected in the A antennas, and V L can be calculated The singular value decomposition obtains a matrix composed of L singular vectors corresponding to the largest L singular values and performs power normalization and quantization processing, and can also be selected from the second-level codebook set, where i is an interference signal vector, n For the noise signal vector, P ' is the power normalization factor of the precoding matrix.

L=1時,第二級預編碼矩陣退化為Q×1的列向量。當L=1且網路設備指定Q max=1時,第二級預編碼矩陣則進一步退化為標量ν1=1,此時,上述問題便可簡化為從A個天線埠中選擇通道估計值的范數平方最大,即接收功率最大的天線埠。 When L =1, the second-stage precoding matrix degenerates into a column vector of Q × 1.
