具体实施方式 为使本发明的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合附图对本 发明实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
实施例 1
本实施例提供了一种 TDD系统中确认或不确认指示信息发送的方法。 参见图 1 , 该方法可以由网络侧设备执行, 具体包括:
S11: 网络侧设备给 UE配置至少两个载波, 其中包括一个主载波和至 少一个辅载波。
S12: 网络侧设备在一个下行子帧上向 UE发送 PDCCH信息, PDCCH 信息指示下行子帧所承载的 PDSCH的调度信息; PDCCH信息指示 PDSCH 所对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源, ACK/NACK信道资源承载在辅载波上的 第一上行子帧上, 第一上行子帧是根据 PDSCH 与 PDSCH 对应的 ACK/NACK之间的定时关系确定, 第一上行子帧所在时刻在主载波上是下 行子帧。
其中, ACK/NACK资源是一个 PUCCH format (格式) 3的 ACK/NACK 资源,或者 ACK/NACK资源是一组 PUCCH format lb的 ACK/NACK资源。 一组 PUCCH format lb的 ACK/NACK资源的个数可以是 2、 3或 4个。
另外, 该网络侧设备具体可以是基站, 对于后面的实施例来说同样如 此。
S13: 网络侧设备在 ACK/NACK信道资源所位于的辅载波的第一上行 子帧上, 接 UE反馈的 ACK/NACK。
本实施例提供的 TDD系统中确认或不确认指示信息发送的方法。 参见 图 2, 该方法也可以由 UE执行, 具体包括:
S21: UE接收网络侧设备在一个下行子帧上向 UE发送的 PDCCH信息。 S22: UE根据 PDCCH信息中携带的调度信息确定 PDCCH信息调度的 PDSCH, 根据 PDCCH信息的指示确定 PDSCH所对应的 ACK/NACK信道 资源, 根据 PDSCH与 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK之间的定时关系确定用 于反馈 ACK/NACK的第一上行子帧,第一上行子帧所在时刻在主载波上是 下行子帧, 并确定 ACK/NACK信道资源所^ ^载的辅载波。
S23: UE 在所确定的 ACK/NACK信道资源上反馈 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK, ACK/NACK信道资源位于所确定的辅载波的第一上行子帧 上。
在本发明实施例中, 主载波也可以叫做主小区 (Primary cell, Pcell ), 辅载波也可以叫做辅小区 ( Secondary cell , Scell )。
以图 3为例说明上述方法, 假设配置 1的 CC ( Component Carrier, 成 员载波)为主载波, 配置 2的 CC为辅载波。 按照现有技术 ACK/NACK只 能在主载波反馈的规则, 辅载波的子帧 7是上行子帧, 主载波的子帧 7是 下行子帧, 因此, 子帧 7的 4个 ACK/NACK无法在主载波上反馈。 按照本 实施例的方法, 子帧 7上的 4个 ACK/NACK可以在辅载波上反馈。 子帧 3 和子帧 4上的 ACK/NACK在主载波上反馈。 子帧 2上的 ACK/NACK, 既 可以在主载波上反馈, 也可以在辅载波上反馈。
其中, 第一上行子帧所在时刻在第一辅载波上是上行子帧, 如果第一 辅载波为一个,则 ACK/NACK信道资源承载在第一辅载波的第一上行子帧 上; 和 /或, 如果第一辅载波为两个或两个以上, 则 ACK/NACK信道资源 承载在第一辅载波中的一个辅载波的第一上行子帧上, 其中, 第一辅载波 中的一个辅载波, 为以下辅载波中的一种: 优先级最高的辅载波, 负载最 低的辅载波, 频率最低或最高的辅载波, 索引号取值最小或最大的辅载波。 网络侧设备可以通过信令配置给 UE的一个辅载波。
对于由网络侧设备通过信令配置辅载波的情况来说, 具体的, 网络侧 设备可以根据不同载波上 ACK/NACK 资源的负载情况等确定一个辅载波 供 UE在该辅载波上反馈 ACK/NACK, 并把该确定的一个辅载波通过 RRC 信令或物理层信令(如 PDCCH ) 配置给 UE。 更一般的, 对于不同频带的 载波聚合, 网络侧设备可以在每一个频带为 UE配置一个辅载波供 UE反馈 ACK/NACK, 或者网络侧设备在除了 UE的主载波所在频带之外的每一个
频带为 UE分别配置一个辅载波供 UE反馈 ACK/NACK。在反馈 ACK/NACK 的时刻, 当只有一个频带的载波上的对应时刻是上行子帧, 而其余频带的 载波上对应时刻都是下行子帧,则 ACK/NACK就反馈在该时刻是上行子帧 的频带上的所配置的一个辅载波上; 在反馈 ACK/NACK的时刻, 当有两个 或两个以上频带的载波上的对应时刻是上行子帧,则 ACK/NACK反馈在该 时刻是上行子帧的其中一个频带 (如标准预先规定的, 比如频点较低的一 个频带等,或网络侧通过信令通知 UE的一个频带,或根据各频带的优先级 选择优先级最高的一个频带)上的所配置的一个辅载波上,或者 ACK/NACK 反馈在该时刻是上行子帧的所配置辅载波中一个特定的辅载波(如优先级 最高的所配置的一个辅载波)上, 或者 ACK/NACK反馈在该时刻是上行子 帧的至少两个频带上的所配置的辅载波上。
如果第一辅载波为两个或两个以上,且 ACK/NACK信道资源承载在第 一辅载波中的优先级最高的辅载波的第一上行子帧上, 则该方法进一步包 括:
确定第一辅载波中各辅载波的优先级, 包括: 根据第一上行子帧为上 行子帧的各个辅载波上第一上行子帧对应的 ACK/NACK的负载情况,或者 各辅载波的频率, 或者各辅载波的索引号配置;
或者, 为配置给 UE的辅载波确定优先级, 具体包括, 针对每个时刻, 为同一时刻所对应的子帧为上行子帧的所有辅载波确定优先级, 以及确定 第一辅载波中各辅载波的优先级, 具体包括, 获取在第一上行子帧所在时 刻所对应的子帧为上行子帧的所有辅载波的优先级。
其中, 为配置给 UE的辅载波确定优先级, 优选的, 如果该时刻对于主 载波是一个上行子帧, 则主载波的优先级可以设置为最高。 另外, 优先级 可以是根据一些信息预先定义的, 如根据载波标号设置优先级, 对于这种 情况, 网络侧设备和 UE均可以自己确定载波的优先级。优先级也可以是网 络侧设备设置好, 然后通过信令配置给 UE的, 该信令可以是 RRC ( Radio Resource Control, 无线资源控制)专有信令, 或者是 PDCCH信息。 如果网 络侧设备通过 PDCCH信息将优先级配置给 UE, 则网络侧设备可以通过 PDCCH中的比特、 扰码、 或者某些已有字域隐式的确定该优先级, 如可以 利用 PDCCH中下行调度的资源分配字段,根据资源分配字段指示的资源分 配数量确定优先级, 如将资源分配数量最多的那个载波设为最高优先级。
例如, 子帧 3对于主载波是下行子帧, 子帧 3对于两个辅载波是上行子帧, 因此可以在子帧 3对两个辅载波进行优先级设定, 如果子帧 3上辅载波 1 的资源分配数量高于辅载波 2, 则子帧 3的载波优先级可以设置为辅载波 1 高于辅载波 2。
网络侧设备在确定 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源位于辅载波之 后, 还可以将所确定的一个辅载波的信息通过 PDCCH信息发送给 UE。
在网络侧设备为 UE只调度了一个辅载波且没有调度主载波,辅载波为 第二辅载波, 相应地, 网络侧设备向 UE 发送一个 PDCCH 信息时, ACK/NACK信道资源承载在第二辅载波上的第一上行子帧上。
PDCCH所占的控制信道单元 CCE的标号与 ACK/NACK信道资源对 应; PDCCH信息指示下行子帧所承载的物理下行共享信道 PDSCH的调度 信息,包括:通过 PDCCH所占的 CCE中的一个 CCE的标号指示 ACK/NACK 信道资源。此方法称为隐式指示方法,适用于网络侧设备为 UE只调度了一 个辅载波且没有调度主载波的情况。
该方法进一步包括: 网络侧设备通过 RRC专有信令为 UE在用于反馈 ACK/NACK的子帧上, 预留一个 ACK/NACK资源集合, ACK/NACK资源 集合中包含的至少一个 ACK/NACK信道资源在一个或多个辅载波上, 且 ACK/NACK资源集合中的每个 ACK/NACK信道资源承载在一个唯一的辅 载波上; PDCCH信息指示 PDSCH所对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源, 包括: 网络侧设备将发送给 UE的 PDCCH信息中的 TPC( Transmit Power Control, 发送功率控制 )或 DAI ( Downlink Assignment Index, 下行分配指示 )用作 ARI ( ACK/NACK Resource Indicator, ACK/NACK信道资源指示), ARI 用于指示 ACK/NACK资源集合中用于 UE反馈 ACK/NACK的 ACK/NACK 信道资源, ACK/NACK信道资源所在的载波为 UE用于反馈 ACK/NACK 的载波。 此方法称为 ARI显式指示方法, 适用于一个下行子帧调度了多个 载波的情况。
相应的, UE接收网络侧设备发送的 RRC专有信令, 根据 RRC专有信 令获取网络侧设备为 UE在用于反馈 ACK/NACK 的子帧上预留的一个 ACK/NACK 资源集合, ACK/NACK 资源集合中包含的至少一个 ACK/NACK信道资源在一个或多个辅载波上, 且 ACK/NACK资源集合中 的每个 ACK/NACK信道资源承载在一个唯一的辅载波上;
步骤 S22中, 根据 PDCCH信息确定 PDSCH所对应的 ACK/NACK信 道资源, 包括:
UE获取网络侧设备发送的 PDCCH信息中被用作 ACK/NACK信道资 源指示 ARI的 TPC或 DAI, 根据 ARI确定 ACK/NACK资源集合中用于 UE反馈 ACK/NACK的 ACK/NACK信道资源, ACK/NACK信道资源所在 的载波为 UE用于反馈 ACK/NACK的载波。
其中, UE获取被用作 ACK/NACK信道资源指示 ARI的 TPC或 DAI, 包括:
UE在第一上行子帧对应为上行子帧的辅载波中,选择一个作为第三辅 载波;将第三辅载波上承载的 PDSCH所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 TPC命令 字作为 TPC命令字; 将其他 PDSCH所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 TPC命令 字作为 ARI,其他 PDSCH承载在除了第三辅载波之外的其他辅载波中的一 个或多个辅载波上, 且在其他 PDSCH承载在多个辅载波上时, ARI取值相 等。
以图 3为例, 子帧 2上的 ACK/NACK是针对 2个 CC, 即主载波和辅 载波, 的下行调度, 因此可以通过 ARI动态的指示 ACK/NACK在该主载 波或辅载波上反馈, 这样可以动态地调整多个 CC上的 ACK/NACK负载, 使得 ACK/NACK负载平衡。 子帧 3、 4、 7上的 ACK/NACK只是针对一个 CC的下行调度,且每个 CC都可以反馈 ACK/NACK,那么网络侧设备可以 用 PDCCH隐式指示对应的 ACK/NACK资源。相对于现有机制调度主载波 采用 PDCCH隐式指示对应的 ACK/NACK资源, 调度辅载波就需要用 ARI 显示指示对应的 ACK/NACK资源。本实施例对于针对一个 CC的下行调度, 只调用辅载波也可以用 PDCCH隐式指示对应的 ACK/NACK资源, 从而有 利于节省信令资源开销。
网络侧设备将 PDCCH信息中的 TPC用作 ARI , 包括: 网络侧设备在 第一上行子帧对应为上行子帧的辅载波中, 选择一个作为第三辅载波, 第 三辅载波是在第一上行子帧对应为上行子帧的辅载波中优先级最高的辅载 波;调度第三辅载波上承载的 PDSCH所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 TPC命令 字作为 TPC命令字; 调度其他 PDSCH所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 TPC命 令字作为 ARI,其他 PDSCH承载在除了第三辅载波之外的其他辅载波中的 一个或多个辅载波上, 且在其他 PDSCH承载在多个辅载波上时, ARI取值
相等。
进一步的,如果该 PDCCH是调度除该最高优先级的载波之外的至少两 个载波的 PDCCH, 该 PDCCH中的至少两个 ARI, 可以基于同一个或不同 的 ACK/NACK资源集合来指示 ACK/NACK资源位于该至少两个载波中的 一个载波上。
具体来说,该 PDCCH中的 ARI可以基于同一个 ACK/NACK资源集合 来指示 ACK/NACK资源, 例如, 调度辅载波 1的 PDCCH中的 ARI1 , 以 及调度辅载波 2的 PDCCH中的 ARI2, 在一个 ACK/NACK资源集合中指 示 ACK/NACK资源, 节省 ACK/NACK资源预留的开销。
该 PDCCH中的 ARI还可以基于不同的 ACK/NACK资源集合来指示。 本实施例可以为每个载波设置一个优先级, 且设最高优先级的载波为第一 载波, 其余载波为第二载波。
例如, 假设配置给 UE三个载波 Pcell, Scdll和 Scdl2, 子帧 n对于这 个三个载波都是上行子帧, 优先级设定为 Pcell高于 Scdll高于 Scell2, 子 帧 n用于反馈子帧 p上调度的 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK, 且子帧 p对于 这三个载波都是下行子帧。 如果在下行子帧 p 网络侧设备调度了这三个载 波给 UE, 则 UE会在调度 Scelll的 PDCCH1中的 ARI1所指示的资源上反 馈这三个载波的下行子帧 p 对应的三份 ACK/NACK, 如果 UE 漏检了 PDCCH1 ,则 UE会在调度 Scell2的 PDCCH2中的 ARI2所指示的资源上反 馈 Pcell和 Scdl2的下行子帧 p对应的两份 ACK/NACK, 网络侧设备通过 对 ARI1 和 ARI2 指示的 ACK/NACK 资源的盲检测, 得知 UE 漏检了 PDCCH1 , 且在 ACK/NACK资源上只检测两份 ACK/NACK信息, 因为网 络侧设备认为 UE没有收到 PDCCH1 , 也就认为 UE不会反馈 PDCCH1对 应的 ACK/NACK, 因而由于检测的 ACK/NACK 比特数的减少而提高了 ACK/NACK的检测性能; 如果在下行子帧 p网络侧设备只调度了 Pcell和 Scell2给 UE, 则 UE会在调度 Scell2的 PDCCH2的 ARI2指示的资源上反 馈 Pcell和 Scdl2的下行子帧 p对应的两份 ACK/NACK资源, 网络侧设备 直接在 ARI2指示的 ACK/NACK资源上只检测 Pcell和 Scell2对应的这两 份 ACK/NACK信息, 提高了检测性能; 如果在下行子帧 p网络侧设备只调 度了 Pcell和 Scelll给 UE, 则 UE会在调度 Scelll的 PDCCH1的 ARI1指 示的资源上反馈 Pcell, Scelll和 Scdl2的下行子帧 p对应的三份 ACK/NACK
资源, 网络侧设备直接在 ARI1指示的 ACK/NACK资源上只检测 Pcell和 Scelll对应的这两份 ACK/NACK信息, 因此这种情况下, UE无从得知网 络侧设备调度了 Scell2而漏检了 PDCCH2还是根本就没有调度 Scdl2。
该方法还包括: 将配置给 UE的辅载波确定优先级, 确定包括, 针对每 个时刻, 为同一时刻所对应的子帧为上行子帧的所有辅载波确定优先级。
其中, 为同一时刻所对应的子帧为上行子帧的所有辅载波确定优先级 包括: 根据子帧为上行子帧的各个辅载波上 ACK/NACK的负载情况, 或者 各辅载波的频率, 或者各辅载波的索引号配置。
本实施例网络侧设备通过 PDCCH 信息指示 PDSCH 所对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源承载在辅载波上的第一上行子帧上, 并且第一上行子 帧所在时刻在主载波上是下行子帧,使得 UE在位于所确定的辅载波的第一 上行子帧上的 ACK/NACK信道资源上反馈 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK, 从而在不同上下行子帧配置的载波聚合时也能够反馈 ACK/NACK。

S43 : UE 在第一信道资源上向网络侧设备反馈 PDSCH 对应的 ACK/NACK。
其中, 至少两个定时关系, 至少包括对应不同载波, 和 /或对应同一个
载波上的不同上行子帧的定时关系。
其中, 至少两个不同的 ACK/NACK信道资源包括: 在相同时刻 7 载在 不同载波上的上行子帧上的 ACK/NACK信道资源, 和 /或, 不同上行子帧 上的 ACK/NACK信道资源。 具体的, 不同上行子帧上的 ACK/NACK信道 资源可以为, 不同载波上的不同的上行子帧, 或者, 相同载波上的不同的 上行子帧。

根据本实施例提供的方法,辅载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到主载波的 ACK/NACK 资源上反馈, 主载波的 ACK/NACK也可以调整到辅载波的 ACK/NACK资源上反馈, 下面分别举例说明。
对于辅载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到主载波的 ACK/NACK资源上反 馈的情况:
参见图 6, 辅载波子帧 7上的下行子帧 0、 9对应的 ACK/NACK可以 调整到主载波反馈, 并且根据主载波的定时关系, 可以调整到主载波的子 帧 4来反馈。 以 PDCCH调整为例, 网络侧设备可以利用下行子帧 0、 9调 度的 PDCCH中 DAI的特殊取值 (如 DAI等于 4 )或者 TPC的一个状态, 表示 I巴辅载波子帧 7上的下行子帧 0、 9对应的 ACK/NACK调整到主载波 的子帧 4来反馈,同时 ACK/NACK资源可以由该 PDCCH中的 TPC来指示 或者单独为这个切换预留一份额外的 ACK/NACK资源,该额外的资源是指 ARI指示的资源集合之外的资源。
上述调整方法,减小了辅载波子帧 7上 ACK/NACK的负载和反馈时延。 具体的, 如果子帧 0、 9对应的 ACK/NACK在辅载波子帧 7上反馈, 则反 馈时延分别为 7、 8, 调整后, 反馈时延分别为 4、 5。
对于主载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到辅载波的 ACK/NACK资源上反 馈的情况:
参见图 6, 主载波子帧 2上的下行子帧 1对应的 ACK/NACK可以调整 到辅载波反馈, 并且根据辅载波的定时关系, 可以调整到辅载波的子帧 7 来反馈。 以 PDCCH调整为例, 网络侧设备可以利用下行子帧 1 调度的 PDCCH中 DAI的特殊取值 (如 DAI等于 4 )或者 TPC的一个状态, 表示 巴主载波子帧 2上的下行子帧 1对应的 ACK/NACK调整到辅载波的子帧 7 来反馈, 同时, ACK/NACK资源可以由该 PDCCH中的 TPC (或 DAI )来 指示, 或者单独为这个切换预留一份额外的 ACK/NACK资源, 该额外的资 源是指 ARI指示的资源集合之外的资源。
本实施例网络侧设备为 UE配置至少两个载波,其中包括一个主载波和 至少一个辅载波, 在一个下行子帧上向 UE发送 PDCCH信息, PDCCH信 息指示下行子帧承载的 PDSCH的调度信息, 根据 PDSCH与 PDSCH对应 的 ACK/NACK之间的至少两个定时关系,确定至少两个不同的 ACK/NACK 信道资源,从至少两个不同的 ACK/NACK信道资源中确定一个第一信道资
源用于 UE反馈 ACK/NACK, 将第一信道资源通过信令通知 UE, 接收 UE 在第一信道资源上反馈的 ACK/NACK, 从而在不同上下行子帧配置的载波 聚合时也能够反馈 ACK/NACK。 另外, 还可以平衡载波上 ACK/NACK的 负载, 减小 ACK/NACK反馈时延。
本发明实施例还提供了一种确认或不确认指示信息发送的方法。 该实 施例适用的系统可以是 TDD系统、 FDD系统 ,也可以是 TDD与 FDD 的载波聚合系统。
参见图 16 ,该方法可以由网络侧设备执行,具体包括:
5161:网络侧设备为 UE配置至少两个载波,其中包括一个主载波和至 少一个辅载波。
主载波可以采用 FDD和 TDD两种双工模式中的一种,不管主载波是 哪种双工模式的载波,辅载波都可以采用 FDD和 TDD两种双工模式中的 一种。 当然,主载波和辅载波也可以是其他模式的载波,只要能够实现本 发明方案即可,在此不做限定。另外,本发明中的主载波可以是供 UE独立 接入的载波,或可以空闲态驻留的载波,或供 UE进行无线链路失败检测的 载波;本发明的主载波也可以是不能供 UE独立接入,而只能在 UE连接态 时使用的载波。
5162:网络侧设备在一个第一下行子帧上向 UE发送 PDCCH信息,该 PDCCH信息指示第二下行子帧上承载的 PDSCH的调度信息。
其中 ,该第一下行子帧与第二下行子帧可以是同一个子帧,也可以是 不同的子帧。 该第一下行子帧与第二下行子帧可以在相同的载波上,也可 以在不同的载波上,后者也称为跨载波调度。
该 PDCCH可以是 LTE系统中基于小区特定参考信号解调的 PDCCH , 也可以是 LTE系统中基于 UE特定参考信号解调的增强的 PDCCH。
5163:在该 PDSCH所在子帧与该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK所在子 帧之间的至少两个定时关系中选择一个作为第一定时关系,确定与该第一 定时关系对应的、 用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行 子帧。
其中 ,所选择的第一定时关系其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行 子帧时刻相同的子帧是下行子帧,可以将该条件称为第一条件。 这样,即 可保证所确定的该第三上行子帧是 UE能够用于 ACK/NACK反馈的子帧。
具体的,上述至少两个定时关系,可以包括对应不同载波的定时关系; 和 /或,包括对应同一个载波的定时关系,对于这种情况来说,针对不同的 定时关系,下行子帧在该载波上所对应的、用于 ACK/NACK反馈的上行子 帧不同。
对于至少两个定时关系对应不同载波的情况来说,比如, FDD载波上 的 PDSCH所在子帧与 ACK/NACK所在子帧的定时关系可以为( n , n+4 ) , 即如果 UE在子帧 n收到 PDSCH ,则会在子帧 n+4反馈该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK;对于 TDD载波上的定时关系,则可以可以表示为( n , n+k ) , 其中 k可以大于等于 4 , 因为对于 TDD系统,与 PDSCH间隔的第 4个子 帧不一定是上行子帧。特别的,保证 k大于等于 4是为了 PDSCH的处理时 延的考虑,将来也可以采用其他数值。
对于至少两个定时关系对应同一载波的情况来说,假设一个载波上的 一个下行子帧上承载了 PDSCH ,则该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK既可以 在该载波上的一个上行子帧反馈,也可以在该载波上的另一个上行子帧反 馈,该不同上行子帧对应不同的定时关系。其中 ,该载波可以为 TDD载波, 也可以为 FDD载波,或者其他载波。
其中 ,选择一个定时关系,具体可以有多种实现方式,比如,随机选 择,还可以根据定时关系所对应的不同载波或者用于 ACK/NACK反馈的不 同上行子帧的情况进行选择。 当然,所选择的第一定时关系首先需要满足 该条件:其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行子帧时刻相同的子帧是下 行子帧。
具体来说, 如果定时关系对应不同载波 ,则可以根据这些载波上 ACK/NACK信道的负载情况,选择负载最小的载波所对应的定时关系;或 者根据这些载波上的 ACK/NACK反馈时延,选择反馈时延最小的载波所对 应的定时关系;或者,选择 UE所需发送功率最小的载波所对应的定时关系。 对于根据发送功率进行选择这种情况来说,假设 UE距离承载主载波的宏小 区较远,而距离承载辅载波的微小区较近, 网络侧设备可以选择该辅载波 所对应的定时关系给 UE ,因为选择该辅载波会使得 UE需要的发送功率比 选择主载波时 UE所需要的发送功率要小。 当然,也可以综合考虑负载、反 馈时延及发送功率这几种情况。
如果定时关系对应同一个载波,则需要考虑该载波上定时关系所对应
的不同上行子帧的情况。 具体来说,可以根据不同上行子帧上 ACK/NACK 信道的负载情况,选择负载最小的上行子帧所对应的定时关系;或者根据 这些上行子帧上的 ACK/NACK反馈时延,选择反馈时延最小的上行子帧所 对应的定时关系。 当然,也可以综合考虑负载、 反馈时延这几种情况。
对于上述步骤中的确定第三上行子帧来说,可以是根据该第一定时关 系以及该 PDSCH所在子帧,即上述第二下行子帧,确定用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行子帧。
S164:确定用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第一载波。 在确定了第一定时关系后,即可根据该第一定时关系确定该第一载波。 具体来说,不管是不同定时关系对应不同载波,还是不同定时关系对应同 一载波,均可以根据定时关系与载波的对应关系,确定第一定时关系所对 应的第一载波。
上述 S163与 S164还可以换一种实现方式,即先确定上述第一载波, 再根据所确定的第一载波确定相应的第一定时关系。 具体如下:
S163' :确定用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第一载波。 如果不同定时关系对应不同载波,则可以随机选择一个载波作为第一 载波。 或者,可以根据这些载波上 ACK/NACK信道的负载情况,选择负载 最小的载波作为第一载波;或者根据这些载波上的 ACK/NACK反馈时延, 选择反馈时延最小的载波作为第一载波;或者,选择 UE所需发送功率最小 的载波作为第一载波。 当然,也可以综合考虑负载、 反馈时延及发送功率 这几种情况。
其中 ,在确定第一载波时,还需要保证所选择的载波所对应的定时关 系,满足满足其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行子帧时刻相同的子帧 应该是下行子帧这一条件,从而可以保证所确定的该第三上行子帧是 UE 能够用于 ACK/NACK反馈的子帧。
S164' :在该 PDSCH所在子帧与该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK所在子 帧之间的至少两个定时关系中选择一个作为第一定时关系,并确定与该第 一定时关系对应的、 用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上 行子帧。
对于上述选择一个定时关系作为第一定时关系的处理来说,如果不同 定时关系对应不同载波,则可以通过 S163' 中所确定的第一载波确定其所
对应的定时关系。之后,即可根据该第一定时关系以及该 PDSCH所在子帧, 即上述第二下行子帧,确定用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的 第三上行子帧。
如果不同定时关系对应的是同一个载波,那么还需要考虑该载波上定 时关系所对应的不同上行子帧的情况。 具体来说,可以根据不同上行子帧 上 ACK/NACK信道的负载情况,选择负载最小的上行子帧所对应的定时关 系;或者根据这些载波上的 ACK/NACK反馈时延,选择反馈时延最小的上 行子帧所对应的定时关系。 当然,也可以综合考虑负载、 反馈时延这几种 情况。 对于这种情况来说, 由于是根据上行子帧确定的第一定时关系, 因 此,用于确定该第一定时关系的上行子帧,即为用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对 应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行子帧。
如上述步骤 S163中所述,对于该 S164'来说,所选择的第一定时关系, 也需要满足其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行子帧时刻相同的子帧应 该是下行子帧这一条件,从而可以保证所确定的该第三上行子帧是 UE能够 用于 ACK/NACK反馈的子帧。
相应地,在选择第一载波或第三上行子帧时,如果其所对应的第一定 时关系不能满足上述条件,则需要重新进行选择,以使得该第一定时关系 满足该条件,换一句话说,在选择第一载波或第三上行子帧时,就需要同 时考虑第一定时关系满足该条件的问题。
S165:将所确定的第三上行子帧和第一载波所对应的相关信息指示给 对于 UE来说,得知了网络侧设备所选择的第一定时关系,即可相应地 确定该第一定时关系所对应的第一载波,比如,结合定时关系与载波的对 应关系确定,以及用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行 子帧。 因此,该 S165的指示步骤,具体可以为 :将所选择的第一定时关系 指示给 UE。 即,该第三上行子帧及第一载波所对应的相关信息为该第一定 时关系。 具体可以通过层 1信令和 /或 RRC信令来指示该第一定时关系。
如果定时关系对应不同的载波,则网络侧设备可以只将所选择的第一 载波指示给 UE ,相应地, UE可以根据该第一载波确定其所对应的第一定 时关系,并进一步根据该第一定时关系确定用于 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行子帧。 因此,该 S165的指示步骤,具体可以为 :
将所选择的第一载波指示给 UE。 即,该第三上行子帧及第一载波所对应的 相关信息为该第一载波。具体可以通过层 1信令和 /或 RRC信令来指示该第 一载波。
当然,该第三上行子帧及第一载波的相关信息,还可以为该第三上行 子帧及第一载波信息本身,相应地, 网络侧设备可以将该第三上行子帧及 第一载波通过层 1信令和 /或 RRC信令来指示给 UE。
5166:在所确定的第一载波的第三上行子帧中 ,确定用于 UE反馈所述 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第一信道资源,并将所述第一信道资源指示 给 UE。
其中 ,该第一信道资源可以随机选择,也可以由网络侧设备根据信道 资源负载情况等进行选择,本发明不做具体限定。
对于将第一信道资源指示给 UE来说,具体的, ACK/NACK信道资源 可以采用隐式指示的方式指示给 UE。 比如 ACK/NACK信道资源可以跟 PDCCH所占的 CCE标号隐式对应,这样网络侧设备用哪个 CCE来调度 PDCCH ,网络侧设备就应该去该 CCE对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源上去接 收 UE发送的 ACK/NACK ,相应地, UE可以根据调度该 PDCCH的 CCE 来确定其所对应的、用于本 UE进行 ACK/NACK反馈的信道资源,CCE也 可以是增强的 PDCCH对应的增强的 CCE。
ACK/NACK信道资源也可以采用信令的显示指示,比如通过 RRC信 令预留一个或一组 ACK/NACK信道资源,如果预留一个,那么网络侧设备 就去这个信道资源上去接收 UE发送的 ACK/NACK,相应地,UE则可以获 知该预留的信道资源为用于本 UE进行 ACK/NACK反馈的信道资源;如果 预留一组 , 那么网络侧设备还需要通过 PDCCH 来动态指示这一组 ACK/NACK信道资源中的哪一个用作当前 UE反馈 ACK/NACK的信道资 源,相应地, UE则可以获知该组信道资源中该 PDCCH动态指示的那个资 源为本 UE可以用于 ACK/NACK反馈的信道资源,对于网络侧设备来说, 则需要去这个动态指示的信道资源上接收 UE发送的 ACK/NACK。具体的, PDCCH可以通过该 PDCCH中的比特或扰码来进行动态指示。
需要说明的是,上述 S165和 S166两个步骤中的信息,网络侧设备可 以通过获取同一个信令指示给 UE ,也可以通过不同信令进行指示。
5167:接收 UE在所述第一载波上的所述第三子帧上的所述第一信道资
源上反馈的 ACK/NACK。 本实施例提供的确认或不确认指示信息发送的方法。 参见图 17 ,该方 法可以由 UE执行,具体包括:
5171: UE确定被配置的两个载波,其中包括一个主载波和至少一个辅 载波。
该主载波和辅载波具体与前述步骤 S161相同,在此不再赘述。
5172: UE接收网络侧设备在一个第一下行子帧上向 UE发送的 PDCCH 信息,该 PDCCH信息指示第二下行子帧上承载的 PDSCH的调度信息。
该第一下行子帧与第二下行子帧的关系,以及该 PDCCH具体为什么样 的 PDCCH ,如前述步骤 S162所述,在此不再赘述。
5173:获取网络侧设备发送给本 UE的指示信息,并根据该指示信息确 定网络侧设备为该 UE确定的、用于反馈 ACK/NACK的第三上行子帧及第 一载波。
该指示信息为网络侧设备为该 UE确定的、用于反馈 ACK/NACK的第 三上行子帧及第一载波所对应的相关信息,具体可以是网络侧设备通过层 1 信令和 /或 RRC信令发送给该 UE的。
如前述步骤 S165所述,该相关信息可以为网络侧设备所选择的第一定 时关系,或者是网络侧设备所确定的第一载波。 对于所选择的第一定时关 系来说,其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行子帧时刻相同的子帧应该 是下行子帧 ,从而可以保证所确定的该第三上行子帧是 UE 能够用于 ACK/NACK反馈的子帧。
如果获取到的相关信息是第一定时关系,则根据指示信息确定第三上 行子帧及第一载波,具体可以为 :根据该第一定时关系以及该 PDSCH所在 子帧,即上述第二下行子帧 , 确定用于本 UE 发送该 PDSCH 对应的 ACK/NACK的第三上行子帧,以及根据定时关系与载波的对应关系以及该 第一定时关系确定该第一定时关系所对应的第一载波。
如果获取到的相关信息是第一载波,则根据指示信息确定第三上行子 帧及第一载波,具体可以为 : UE根据该第一载波以及载波与定时关系的对 应关系,确定该第一载波所对应的第一定时关系,再根据该第一定时关系 以及该 PDSCH所在子帧,即上述第二下行子帧,确定相应的第三上行子帧。
5174:获取网络侧设备指示给本 UE的、 用于本 UE反馈该 PDSCH对 应的 ACK/NACK的第一信道资源。
与上述步骤 S166相对应地, UE可以通过接收层 1信令和 /或 RRC信 令确定该第一 ACK/NACK信道资源。具体的,如果网络侧设备采用隐式指 示的方式,比如 ACK/NACK信道资源可以跟 PDCCH所占的 CCE标号隐 式对应,这样 UE在哪个或哪几个 CCE上接收到 PDCCH ,相应的, UE就 可以确定哪个 CCE或哪几个 CCE中的某个 CCE对应的 ACK/NACK信道 资源为网络侧设备配置给本 UE的 ACK/NACK信道资源,从而可以去该信 道资源上发送 ACK/NACK。如果网络侧设备可以采用信令的显示指示方式, 比如通过 RRC信令预留一个或一组 ACK/NACK信道资源,如果预留一个, 那么 UE就可以确定该信道资源为网络侧设备配置给本 UE的 ACK/NACK 信道资源,从而可以去这个信道资源上去发送 ACK/NACK,如果预留一组, 那么 UE还需要通过 PDCCH来动态获取这一组 ACK/NACK信道资源中的 哪一个用作当前反馈 ACK/NACK的信道资源,相应的, UE去这个动态获 取的信道资源上发送 ACK/NACK。 具体的,可以通过该 PDCCH中的比特 或扰码来进行动态指示。
需要说明的是,上述 S173和 S174两个步骤中的信息,UE可以通过获 取同一个信令获得,也可以通过不同信令获得。
5175:在所述第一载波上的第三上行子帧上的所述第一信道资源上发 送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK。
另外,本发明中的载波与服务小区对应。 具体来说,对于 FDD系统, 一个服务小区包括一个下行载波和该下行载波对应的一个上行载波;对于 TDD系统,一个服务小区就是对应一个 TDD载波。
上述层 1信令可以对应 PDCCH。
具体的,网络侧设备可以通过 PDCCH信息的新增比特、 TPC,或 DAI , 将第一信道资源的信息通知给 UE;
或者根据扰码与 ACK/NACK信道资源的对应关系确定第一信道资源 对应的第一扰码,并通过 PDCCH信息将第一扰码通知给 UE;
或者根据 PDCCH时频资源位置与 ACK/NACK信道资源的对应关系, 确定第一信道资源对应的第一 PDCCH时频资源位置,并通过 PDCCH信息 将第一 PDCCH时频资源位置通知给 UE。
相应的, UE 接收网络侧设备通过信令通知的、 用于 UE反馈 ACK/ NACK的第一信道资源的信息,可以包括以下之一:
UE接收网络侧设备通过 PDCCH信息的新增比特、 TPC、 DA 第一 信道资源对应的第一扰码、或者第一信道资源对应的第一 PDCCH时频资源 位置,通知的用于 UE反馈 ACK/NACK的第一信道资源。
其中 ,该信令可以是物理层信令(如 PDCCH信息 或者 RLC ( Radio Link Control ,无线链路控制)层信令、 或者 MAC ( Media Access Control , 介质访问控制)层信令、 或者 RRC ( Radio Resource Control ,无线资源控 制)层信令。
通过上述实现方案,针对不同上下行子帧配置的至少两个 TDD载波的 载波聚合的系统,或至少一个 FDD载波和至少一个 TDD载波的载波聚合 的系统, 网络侧设备通过在至少两个定时关系中选择一个第一定时关系, 且其所对应的第一载波上与上述第二下行子帧时刻相同的子帧是下行子 帧,从而可以为 UE配置能够用于 ACK/NACK反馈的子帧、 载波及相应的 信道资源,从而使得 UE不但保证 UE能够进行 ACK/NACK反馈,而且还 能使得 UE能够进行灵活的 ACK/NACK反馈。 并且,本发明方案同样适用 于至少有两个 TDD载波且具有相同上下行子帧配置的载波聚合的系统,或 至少有两个 FDD载波的载波聚合的系统,以及类似系统。
另外,上述实现方案中 , ACK/NACK可以被选择到不同的载波或同一 个载波的不同的子帧上反馈, 因此该方案还可以平衡各载波或各子帧上的 ACK/NACK反馈的负载。 进一步地,在根据 ACK/NACK反馈时延选择第 一定时关系或第一载波时,还可以进一步减小 ACK/NACK反馈的时延。此 外,对于不同载波发送在不同地理位置的网络侧设备的场景,比如宏基站 对应一个载波和微基站对应另一个载波,网络侧设备可以选择一个 UE所需 发送功率较小的载波进行 ACK/NACK反馈,从而节省了 UE的耗电量,并 且提高了网络侧设备对 ACK/NACK的接收性能。
根据本实施例提供的方法,辅载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到主载波的 ACK/NACK 资源上反馈,主载波的 ACK/NACK 也可以调整到辅载波的 ACK/NACK资源上反馈。
对于辅载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到主载波的 ACK/NACK资源上反 馈的情况,以及主载波的 ACK/NACK可以调整到辅载波的 ACK/NACK资
源上反馈的情况来说,具体调整情况可以参见图 6 ,具体描述如前所述。在 此不再赘述。 上述实施例 1 和 2 提供的方案中, Pcdl 或 Scdl 都是可以发送 ACK/NACK的。 考虑到邻频干扰抑制问题, 不同上下行配置的 TDD载波 聚合的载波应该是跨频段的, 即聚合的多个载波频点彼此相距较远。 假设 两个不同上下行配置的 TDD载波 CO和 C1聚合, 其中 CO是低频段而 C1 是高频段, 那么 CO上的小区覆盖要大于 C1上的小区覆盖, 因此对于位于 小区边缘的 UE, 网络侧设备可以把 UE的上行 ACK/NACK配置到小区覆 盖较好的低频载波 CO上, 特别的, 如果低频载波为 UE的主载波, 则网络 侧设备可以 UE的上行 ACK/NACK配置到主载波上。
根据上述分析, 本发明提出的又一方案, 网络侧设备包括:
网络侧设备在多个 ACK/NACK反馈模式中确定一种 ACK/NACK反馈 模式;
网络侧设备通过信令将 ACK/NACK反馈模式通知给 UE, 以使得 UE 根据所述一种 ACK/NACK反馈模式和预先配置好的 ACK/NACK定时关系 进行 ACK/NACK反馈。
基于上述方案, 其中所述 ACK/NACK反馈模式可以是 ACK/NACK可 以反馈在 Pcell 或一个 Scdl 上, 或者, ACK/NACK反馈模式可以是 ACK/NACK只可以反馈在某一个载波上, 该某一个载波可以是主载波, 或 者低频点的载波。
基于上述方案, 其中所述信令优选可以是无线资源控制 (RRC, Radio Resource Control )专有信令, 广播信令或者层 1/层 2信令(如 PDCCH等)。
基于上述方案, 该预先配置好的 ACK/NACK定时关系是 UE收到了上 述方案中的所述信令就知道的定时关系, 可以是现有系统的定时关系, 或 者根据现有系统修改的定时关系。
本发明提出的又一方案, UE侧包括:
获取网络侧设备通知的配置 ACK/NACK反馈模式的信令;
UE 根据所述信令和预先配置好的 ACK/NACK 定时关系进行 ACK/NACK反馈。
上述方案中的 ACK/NACK反馈模式, ACK/NACK定时关系的描述同
相应的网络侧设备方案, 在此不再赘述。
上述图 16和 17对应的实施例解决了如下技术问题,即如果总在主载 波上反馈 ACK/NACK ,会导致有些场景下, ACK/NACK上无法反馈的情 况,比如当定时关系对应的第一载波上与下行 PDSCH所在的子帧时刻相同 的子帧是上行子帧时 , 是无法用该定时关系对应的第一载波来承载该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的。进一步地,如果传统 TDD载波上的某个上 行子帧,或者动态子帧 TDD载波上的可以用作上行 ACK/NACK反馈的上 行子帧 (该 ACK/NACK 反馈决定于第二 TDD 配置)上调度了下行数据 PDSCH ,则根据当前 TDD载波上的 ACK/NACK定时关系或第二 TDD配 置下的 ACK/NACK定时关系,是无法在当前 TDD载波上反馈 ACK/NACK 的。
针对上述问题,本发明提供了又一种确认或不确认指示信息发送的方 法。本发明实施例适用的系统可以是 TDD系统、 FDD系统,也可以是 TDD 与 FDD的载波聚合系统。
该方法可以由网络侧设备执行,具体包括:
步骤 il:网络侧设备为 UE配置至少两个载波,其中包括至少一个 TDD 载波。
步骤 i2:网络侧设备在所述一个 TDD载波上的一个第五子帧上向 UE 发送 PDCCH信息,所述 PDCCH信息指示在一个第四上行子帧上承载的 PDSCH的调度信息。
该第五子帧可以是上行子帧,也可以是下行子帧。 且该第五子帧为上 行子帧时,可以与该第四上行子帧为同一个上行子帧, 当然也可以为不同 上行子帧。 该第五子帧可以在该 TDD载波上,也可以在其他的载波上。
该至少一个 TDD载波可以采用动态的子帧配置,即该 TDD载波上可以 存在至少一个子帧,该子帧可以动态的被用作上行或下行.具体为 ,系统消息 通知的上下行配置为第一 TDD配置,例如第一 TDD配置下的子帧配置为配 置 0 ,即" 下下上上上" ,而上行 ACK/NACK反馈定时可以按照第二 TDD 配置来进行,该第二 TDD配置可以由 RRC专有信令来配置,假设该第二 配置下的子帧配置为配置 2 ,即" 下下上下下" ,在上述配置下,如果第 4 或 5个子帧被调度了下行数据,则可以根据上述第二 TDD配置的定时关系 来反馈对应的 ACK/NACK。 上述第四上行子帧可以为上述配置下的第 3个
子帧,即动态子帧 TDD载波的第二 TDD配置下的一个上行子帧。
所述第四上行子帧是临时用作传输下行 PDSCH数据的子帧,和 /或, 所述上行子帧在不传输下行 PDSCH数据时可以承载上行 ACK/NACK。
步骤 i3:确定 UE发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第二载波,该 第二载波为该 TDD载波之外的载波,具体可以为 FDD载波或 TDD载波。
由于第四上行子帧为传统 TDD载波 (非动态子帧 TDD载波)上的一个上 行子帧,或者为动态子帧 TDD载波的第二 TDD配置下的一个上行子帧, 因此如果该第四上行子帧上调度了下行数据传输,即 PDSCH传输,那么根 据传统 TDD载波上的 ACK/NACK定时关系,或者动态子帧 TDD载波上的 ACK/NACK定时关系,即第二 TDD配置下的 ACK/NACK定时关系,是无 法反馈该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK 的, 因此需要在其他载波上发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACKo
如果配置给 UE的除了当前 TDD载波的载波数量为 1,则 ACK/NACK 反馈的载波为该除当前 TDD载波之外的载波;如果配置给 UE的除了当前 TDD载波之外的载波数量大于 1 ,则可以根据 ACK/NACK负载情况和 /或 反馈时延来在该除当前 TDD 载波之外的载波中确定该第二载波用于 ACK/NACK反馈,子后可以通过层 1信令或 RRC信令将第二载波信息通 知给 UE。
步骤 i4:确定该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK反馈的第二定时关系,并 根据该第二定时关系确定反馈该 ACK/NACK的第六子帧。
网络侧设备可以通过第二载波来确定第二定时关系,具体的,可以采 用第二载波上的 PDSCH与 ACK/NACK的定时关系为第二定时关系。
上述步骤 i3和 i4的顺序可以交换,即可以先确定第二定时关系,再根 据第二定时关系确定第二载波和 ACK/NACK反馈所在的第六子帧。
步骤 i5:在所述第二载波的第六子帧上确定一个第二信道资源用于 UE 反馈 ACK/NACK ,并将所述第二信道资源指示给 UE。
具体的 , ACK/NACK 信道资源可以采用隐式指示的方式 , 比如 ACK/NACK信道资源可以跟 PDCCH所占的 CCE标号隐式对应,这样网络 侧设备用哪个 CCE来调度 PDCCH ,相应的,网络侧设备就去哪个 CCE对 应的 ACK/NACK信道资源上去接收 UE发送的 ACK/NACK , CCE也可以 是增强的 PDCCH对应的增强的 CCE; ACK/NACK信道资源也可以采用信
令的显示指示,比如通过 RRC信令预留一个或一组 ACK/NACK信道资源, 如果预留一个,那么网络侧设备就去这个信道资源上去接收 UE 发送的 ACK/NACK ,如果预留一组,那么网络侧设备还需要通过 PDCCH来动态 指示这一组 ACK/NACK 信道资源中的哪一个用作当前 UE 反馈 ACK/NACK的信道资源,相应的,网络侧设备去这个动态指示的信道资源 上接收 UE发送的 ACK/NACK ,具体的,可以通过该 PDCCH中的比特或 扰码来指示。
步骤 i6:接收 UE在该第二载波上的第六子帧上的第二信道资源上发送 的 ACK/NACKo 相应的 UE侧方法如下:
步骤 jl: UE确定被配置的至少两个载波,其中包括至少一个 TDD载 波。
步骤 j2在所述一个 TDD载波上的一个第五子帧上接收 PDCCH信息, 所述 PDCCH信息指示在一个第四上行子帧上承载的 PDSCH的调度信息。
该第五子帧可以是上行子帧,也可以是下行子帧。 且该第五子帧为上 行子帧时,可以与该第四上行子帧为同一个上行子帧, 当然也可以为不同 上行子帧。 该第五子帧可以在该 TDD载波上,也可以在其他的载波上。
该至少一个 TDD载波可以采用动态的子帧配置,即该 TDD载波上可以 存在至少一个子帧,该子帧可以动态的被用作上行或下行.具体为 ,系统消息 通知的上下行配置为第一 TDD配置,例如第一 TDD配置下的子帧配置为配 置 0 ,即" 下下上上上" ,而上行 ACK/NACK反馈定时可以按照第二 TDD 配置来进行,该第二 TDD配置可以由 RRC专有信令来配置,假设该第二 配置下的子帧配置为配置 2 ,即" 下下上下下" ,在上述配置下,如果第 4 或 5个子帧被调度了下行数据,如果根据上述第二 TDD配置的定时关系来 反馈对应的 ACK/NACK。
而上述第四上行子帧可以为上述配置下的第 3 个子帧,即动态子帧 TDD载波的第二 TDD配置下的一个上行子帧。
所述第四上行子帧是临时用作传输下行 PDSCH数据的子帧,和 /或, 所述上行子帧在不传输下行 PDSCH数据时可以承载上行 ACK/NACK。
步骤 j3:确定发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK的第二载波,该第二
载波为该 TDD载波之外的载波,具体可以为 FDD载波或 TDD载波。
由于第四上行子帧为传统 TDD载波 (非动态子帧 TDD载波)上的一个上 行子帧,或者为动态子帧 TDD载波的第二 TDD配置下的一个上行子帧, 因此如果该第四上行子帧上调度了下行数据传输,即 PDSCH传输,那个根 据传统 TDD载波上的 ACK/NACK定时关系,或者动态子帧 TDD载波上的 ACK/NACK定时关系,即第二 TDD配置下的 ACK/NACK定时关系,是无 法反馈该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK 的, 因此需要在其他载波上发送该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACKo
如果配置给 UE的除了当前 TDD载波的载波数量为 1,则 ACK/NACK 反馈的载波为该除当前 TDD载波之外的载波;如果配置给 UE的除了当前 TDD载波之外的载波数量大于 1则 UE可以通过接收网络侧设备发送的层 1信令或 RRC信令来在该除当前 TDD载波之外的载波中确定该第二载波用 于 ACK/NACK反馈。
步骤 j4:确定该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK反馈的第二定时关系,并 根据该第二定时关系确定反馈该 ACK/NACK的第六子帧。
UE可以通过第二载波来确定第二定时关系,具体的,可以采用第二载 波上的 PDSCH与 ACK/NACK的定时关系为第二定时关系。
上述步骤 i3和 i4的顺序可以交换,即可以先确定第二定时关系,再根 据第二定时关系确定第二载波和 ACK/NACK反馈所在的第六子帧。 具体 的, UE可以通过接收网络侧设备发送的层 1信令或 RRC信令来确定第二 定时关系。
步骤 j5:在所述第二载波的第六子帧上确定一个第二信道资源用于 UE 反馈 ACK/NACKo
具体的 , ACK/NACK 信道资源可以采用隐式指示的方式 , 比如 ACK/NACK信道资源可以跟 PDCCH所占的 CCE标号隐式对应,这样 UE 接收到网络侧设备用哪个 CCE来调度 PDCCH,相应的,UE就去哪个 CCE 对应的 ACK/NACK信道资源上去发送 ACK/NACK , CCE也可以是增强的 PDCCH对应的增强的 CCE; ACK/NACK信道资源也可以采用信令的显示 指示,比如通过 RRC信令预留一个或一组 ACK/NACK信道资源,如果预 留一个,那么 UE就去这个信道资源上去发送 ACK/NACK ,如果预留一组, 那么 UE还需要通过接收 PDCCH来动态确定这一组 ACK/NACK信道资源
中的哪一个用作当前反馈 ACK/NACK的信道资源,相应的, UE去这个动 态指示的信道资源上发送 ACK/NACK ,具体的,可以通过接收该 PDCCH 中的比特或扰码来确定。
步骤 j6: UE 在该第二载波上的第六子帧上的第二信道资源上发送 ACK/NACK。
举例说明:
假设网络侧设备为 UE配置两个载波,其中载波 1是 FDD载波,载波 2是 TDD载波,该 TDD载波是传统 TDD载波,即不采用动态子帧的配置, 假设 TDD载波的上下行配置为配置 2 ,即一个无线帧的 10个子帧的配置分 别为 DSUDDDSUDD (下下上下下下下上下下),其中 , S表示特殊子帧,该 子帧可以传输下行数据 PDSCH但不可以传输上行 PUSCH数据,因此可以 作为下行子帧。 网络侧设备可以调度 TDD 载波的 8 个下行子帧上的 PDSCH ,这些 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK可以发送在该 TDD载波的上行 子帧上,也可以发送在 FDD载波的上行子帧上。 此外,网络侧设备也可以 在 TDD载波的上行子帧上调度下行 PDSCH数据,相应地,如果 TDD载波 的上行子帧不用于反馈上行 ACK/NACK ,则 UE需要在该上行子帧上监测 PDCCH信息;如果网络侧设备在该上行子帧上调度了下行 PDSCH数据, 由于当前 TDD载波的上行子帧上只有该载波上的下行子帧的 ACK/NACK 反馈定时,因此如果该上行被用作下行传输,当前 TDD载波上是没有该下 行传输的 ACK/NACK定时的则 UE需要确定该 PDSCH对应的 ACK/NACK 所在的载波,具体可以由 UE自行确定,也可以由网络侧设备分配,反馈该 ACK/NACK的载波是当前 TDD载波之外的载波。
具体来说,对于由 UE自行确定的情况来说,如果 UE被配置了两个载 波,则 UE可以将该 ACK/NACK反馈在当前 PDSCH所在载波之外的另一 个载波上,该另一个载波可以使 FDD载波或 TDD载波,如果是 TDD载波, 则其在与当前 TDD载波的第四上行子帧时刻相同的子帧是下行子帧,这样 才可以保证该第四上行子帧上的下行数据传输的上行 ACK/NACK定时在 该另一个 TDD载波上是存在的。 如果是 FDD载波,则一定可以保证该第 四上行子帧上的下行数据传输的上行 ACK/NACK 定时的存在,例如该 ACK/NACK可以反馈在该 FDD载波的与该第四上行子帧间隔 4个子帧的 子帧上。
对于由网络侧设备配置的情况来说,假设 UE被配置了多于两个载波, UE可以根据网络侧设备的指示将该 ACK/NACK在其他载波上进行反馈。 具体可以通过层 1信令或 RRC信令或层 1信令与 RRC信令的组合来确定。
该 ACK/NACK反馈的定时关系可以就是选定的载波上的定时关系,即 选定载波上时刻与第四上行子帧的时刻相同的下行子帧对应的 ACK/NACK 反馈的定时关系。该定时关系也可以在确定反馈 ACK/NACK的载波之前确 定,具体可以通过选择反馈时延最小的定时关系来确定,然后再选择该定 时关系的载波作为反馈 ACK/NACK的载波。 即本发明确定 ACK/NACK的 反馈子帧和确定 ACK/NACK所在的载波的确定顺序不作限定。
然后 UE需要确定用于 ACK/NACK反馈的信道资源,具体可以由网络 侧设备通过层 1信令或 RRC信令或层 1信令与 RRC信令的组合来配置, 比如通过 PDCCH中的比特 (比如 ARI)等方式显示分配,或通过 CCE标号 等方式隐式分配,或也可以通过 RRC配置一组 ACK/NACK信道资源,然 后用 PDCCH中的比特来确定其中的一个 ACK/NACK信道资源。 对于当前 TDD 载波采用动态子帧配置的情况,假设系统消息通知的 TDD载波的第一 TDD配置为配置 0 ,即子帧配置为" 下下上上上下下上上 上" ,而该载波的 PDSCH与 ACK/NACK定时关系按照第二 TDD配置来操 作,该第二 TDD配置通过 RRC专有信令来配置。具体的,第 4,5子帧根据 第一 TDD 配置为上行子帧,但可以用作下行数据传输,其对应的上行 ACK/NACK反馈可以按照第二 TDD配置来反馈,即可以反馈在第 3或 8 个子帧上,即 3,8这两个子帧是固定的上行子帧,而第 4,5,9和 10这四个子 帧可以理解为动态子帧。
本发明中 ,假设配置了一个动态子帧的 TDD载波,和一个其他载波, 该其他载波可以是 FDD或 TDD。 对于当前 TDD载波的固定的上行子帧, 比如上述子帧 3,8 ,用作下行数据传输时,其对应的 ACK/NACK反馈是无 法按照第一 TDD配置和第二 TDD配置的定时关系来操作的, 因此可以将 该 ACK/NACK反馈到另一个 FDD或 TDD载波上,定时关系可以采用另一 个载波上的定时关系。 第二信道资源的配置与上述实施例一致,这里不在 赘述。

现有技术中, 当采用 PUCCH format lb结合信道选择的 ACK/NACK反 馈模式时,如果 ACK/NACK原始比特数或者码字绑定后的原始比特数大于 4时, 可以采用 ACK/NACK时域部分绑定来压缩 ACK/NACK的比特数以 使其不大于 4。 如图 7 所示, 假设单码字传输, 子帧 2和子帧 7反馈的 ACK/NACK比特总数为 6, 以子帧 2为例, 此时可以把 Pcell的上行子帧 2 对应下行子帧 5和 6反馈的 ACK/NACK绑定为 2个比特, 把 Scdl的上行 子帧 2对应下行子帧 4、 5、 6和 8反馈的 ACK/NACK绑定为 2个比特, 即 每个载波绑定为 2个比特, 总共在子帧 2就是 4个 ACK/NACK比特, 因此 可以使用 PUCCH format lb结合信道选择的反馈方式。 其中, 最后每个载 波绑定的 2个比特可以根据表 1 , 即每个载波绑定后 ACK的总数来获得, 具体的对应关系是, 这 2个比特表示的 4种状态分别为 00 (表示绑定的几 个 ACK/NACK中至少存在一个 NACK )、 10 (表示没有 NACK且 ACK数 目为 1或 4 )、 01 (表示没有 NACK且 ACK数目为 2 )、 11 (表示没有 NACK 且 ACK数目为 3 )。 还有一个状态就是如果 UE发现漏检了 PDCCH或者没 有收到 PDCCH,则 UE什么都不会发送。 UE判断是否漏检了 PDCCH是根 据绑定的几个下行子帧中调度的 PDCCH中的 2比特的 DAI字段来确定, DAI是每个子帧累加计数的。 以 Scdl的 4、 5、 6、 8绑定为例说明, 如果
网络侧设备调度了这四个下行子帧, 那么相应的 4个 PDCCH中的 DAI取 值依次为 1、 2、 3和 4, 如果 UE只收到了 DAI为 1、 3和 4的 PDCCH, 则 UE判断 eNB (基站 )调度了下行子帧 5但自己漏检了这个 PDCCH, 因 此 UE什么都不会发送。 此外, 表 1只是给出了一种对应关系, 不排除其它 类似对应关系。
表 1
从表 1中 UE反馈的状态 "1 , 0" 可以看出, 其代表了没有 NACK且 ACK数目为 1或 4, 则会有一个错误的情况发生。 具体的, 如果 eNB调度 了 4、 5、 6、 8给 UE, 而 UE只收到了子帧 4的 PDCCH, 其中的 DAI取值 是 1 ,且这个数据调度 UE得到的是 ACK,此时 UE不会发现后面 3个 PDCCH 漏检,也没有 NACK出现, 因此 UE会将这个载波的 ACK/NACK绑定为状 态" 1 , 0,,来反馈给 eNB,表示 ACK数目为 1;但是 eNB调度了 4个 PDCCH, 得到 UE反馈的 "1 , 0" 会认为 UE反馈的 ACK数目为 4, 因此后面 3个 数据包就丢失了。 这个错误的情况发生就是由于 UE反馈的状态 "1 , 0"是
个交叠状态, 即代表了两个意思。
为了解决现有的 DAI计数方式导致的 ACK/NACK反馈信息错误的问 题, 可以改变 DAI计数方式, 以上述情况为例, 可以不让 DAI的取值大于 等于 4, 本发明提供的解决方案如下:
本实施例提供了一种 TDD系统中确认或不确认指示信息发送的方法。 参见图 8, 该方法可以由网络侧设备执行, 该方法具体包括:
S51: 配置至少两个载波给 UE,配置的载波中有至少两个载波的子帧 n 是上行子帧且需要反馈 ACK/NACK;
S52: 将该子帧 n需要反馈的 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧分成至少 两组,每一组的下行子帧数量不超过 2N-1个, N表示 DAI的比特数,其中, 至少有一组中的下行子帧属于不同载波;
S53:将每一组中的各个下行子帧所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 DAI值从 1到 2N-1依次进行设置;
S54: 将每一组中的下行子帧所对应的 PDCCH信息发送给该 UE。 具体的, 对于有两个载波, 且分两组的情况, 将该子帧 n需要反馈的 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧分成至少两组, 可以包括,
将所述 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧中,在第一载波上且发送时刻位 于前 2N-1个的下行子帧分为第一组,将这 2N-1个下行子帧称为第一组子帧; 将所述 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧中,在第一载波上除了该第一组 子帧之外的其它下行子帧, 以及所述 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧中在第 二载波上的下行子帧分为第二组, 所述第二组中的下行子帧数目同样不超 过 2N-1。
上述是针对两个载波的情况, 对于三个或以上载波, 和 /或分三个或以 上组来说, 其处理原理类似。 因此不再赘述。
具体的, 将每一组中的各个下行子帧所对应的 PDCCH信息中的 DAI 值从 1到 2N-1依次进行设置, 可以包括,
在所述每一组中, 所述 1到 2N-1的 DAI值按照所述 PDCCH信息的发 送时刻的先后顺序进行依次设置, 其中, 对于发送时刻相同的至少两个下 行子帧, DAI值再按照载波顺序进行设置。 当然, 该 DAI值的设置也可以 采取其他方式, 比如, 可以采取网络侧设备和 UE均能获知的设置顺序。
参见图 9, 该方法可以由用户设备执行, 该方法具体包括:
S61: 接收网络侧设备配置的至少两个载波, 配置的载波中有至少两个 载波的子帧 n是上行子帧且需要反馈 ACK/NACK;
S62: 将该子帧 n需要反馈的 ACK/NACK所对应的下行子帧分成至少 两组,每一组的下行子帧数量不超过 2N-1个, N表示 DAI的比特数,其中, 至少有一组中的下行子帧属于不同载波;
S63: 接收该网络侧设备在每一组中的各个下行子帧上发送的 PDCCH 信息;
S64: 针对每一组, 根据该组中各个 PDCCH信息中的 DAI值, 以及 PDCCH 信息指示的 PDSCH 所对应的 ACK/NACK, 生成 N 个比特的 ACK/NACK;
S65: 将每一组对应生成的 ACK/NACK发送给该网络侧设备。 根据本实施例提供的方法, 当 DAI的比特数 N为 2时, DAI在部分 ACK/NACK绑定时的状态指示如表 2所示。 通过表 2可以看出, 由于改变 了 DAI计数方式, 所以 ACK/NACK反馈信息(即 ACK/NACK状态)没有 交叠状态。
表 2
下面以图 7的子帧 2为例, 结合表 2说明本实施例的方案。
首先配置给 UE两个载波 Pcell和 Scell,且子帧 2在这两个载波上都是 上行子帧且需要反馈 ACK/NACK; 将上行子帧 2需要反馈的 ACK/NACK 对应的两个载波的 6个下行子帧分为两组, 每组包括的下行子帧数均为 3, 第一组为 Scell的下行子帧 4, 5和 6, 第二组为 Pcell的下行子帧 5, 6和 Scell的下行子帧 8, 第二组是跨不同载波的; 对于第一组的下行子帧 4, 5,
6, DAI计数分别为 1 , 2, 3, 对于第二组的下行子帧 5, 6, 8, DAI计数 分别为 1 , 2, 3,这样就不会出现 DAI为 4的情况, 即 UE就不会反馈 ACK 的数目为 4, 因此就避免了上述由于交叠状态而产生错误的情况。
本实施例通过改变 DAI计数方式避免 ACK/NACK反馈信息产生交叠, 从而避免了 ACK/NACK反馈信息错误。 实施例 4
