Description

基于CA的信号传输方法、装置和设备 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及无线通信技术,尤其涉及一种基于CA的信号传输方法、装置和设备。
背景技术
载波汇聚(Carrier Aggregation;简称:CA)是指在通信过程中所使用的载波不仅限于一个,而是在一个主载波和若干个辅载波上同时进行通信。在授权频带辅助接入(Licensed Assisted Access;简称:LAA)中,将授权载波(Licensed carrier;简称:L-Carrier)作为主载波,将非授权载波(Unlicensed Carrier;简称:U-Carrier)作为辅载波,U-Carrier在L-Carrier的协助下进行通信。采用CA进行通信,由于增加了载波的数量,因此,可以极大的提高通信的速率。
现有技术中,在LAA中采用CA的方式进行信号的传输时,首先需要侦听U-Carrier是否被其它设备所占用,若没有,即U-Carrier处于空闲状态时,则将预设时长的数据通过U-Carrier进行发送,该预设时长的数据发送完毕后,若有信号需要继续通过U-Carrier发送,则重新侦听U-Carrier,以判断该U-Carrier是否被其它设备占用。采用CA的方式传输信号时,通常有两种模式:一种是L-Carrier和U-Carrier同步发射的模式,一种是L-Carrier和U-Carrier异步发射的模式,其中,在L-Carrier和U-Carrier同步发射的模式中,若基站检测出U-Carrier没有被其它设备占用,则向用户设备(User Equipment;简称:UE)发送前导信号,直到下一个L-Carrier的子帧边界处,然后开始向UE发送数据。在L-Carrier和U-Carrier异步发射的模式中,U-Carrier和L-Carrier的子帧边界不一定对齐。
然而,在现有的两种发射模式中,由于UE并不知道基站何时开始在U-Carrier上发送信号,因此,UE需要时刻检测U-Carrier上的信号,以接收基站发送的数据,造成通信系统的复杂度和功耗较高。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全 部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
图1为本发明基于CA的信号传输方法实施例一的流程示意图。本发明实施例提供了一种基于CA的信号传输方法,本实施例的执行主体为发送侧设备,例如可以为基站或者UE,当发送侧设备为基站时,对应的接收侧设备为UE,当发送侧设备为UE时,对应的接收侧设备为基站。本实施例中以基站为发送侧设备,UE为接收侧设备为例进行详细说明,若以UE为发送侧设备,基站为接收侧设备时的处理过程与其类似,此处不再赘述。如图1所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:
步骤101、判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态。
在本实施例中,以主载波为L-Carrier,辅载波为U-Carrier为例进行详细说明。与L-Carrier不同的是,通过U-Carrier传输信号时,U-Carrier要遵循和其它系统(例如WiFi等)进行公平共享资源的原则。在实际应用中,基站首先要对U-Carrier进行可用信道评估(Clear Channel Assessment;简称:CCA)检测,若U-Carrier载波没有被其它设备占用,即处于空闲状态时,则在U-Carrier上进行信号的传输。因此,基站通过判断辅载波在预设时间段内处于空闲状态的可能性,从而确定辅载波是否处于UE需要检测状态,若辅载波在预设时间段内处于空闲状态的可能性较大,则其处于UE需要检测状态,否则,UE不对辅载波进行检测。
步骤102、若辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,则生成指示信号,并将指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给接收侧设备,以供接收侧设备根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。
在本实施例中,基站可以在判断辅载波是否处于UE需要检测状态之前或之后,通过主载波向UE发送子帧。另外,若基站通过判断获知U-Carrier处于UE需要检测状态,则生成一个指示信号,并将该指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给UE,当UE接收到该指示信号之后,根据指示信号从本子帧开始对U-Carrier进行检测,以获知基站是否通过U-Carrier进行信号的传输,若UE在本子帧内检测到U-Carrier上有基站发送的信号,则基站和UE开始在U-Carrier上进行通信。由此可见,UE只在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测U-Carrier,以便进行数据的接收,而不是时刻对U-Carrier进行检测, 从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。
另外,指示信号可以为L-Carrier上的一个新的信道中承载的信号,例如通过设计一个新的物理非授权指示信道(Physical Unlicensed Indicator Channel;简称:PUICH),在该信道中承载指示信号;也可以是现有的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel;简称:PDCCH)/增强型物理下行控制信道(enhanced physical downlink control channel;简称:ePDCCH)/物理控制格式指示信道(Physical Control Format Indicator Channel;简称:PCFICH)中经重新解释后的信号。对于指示信号的具体实现方式,本发明在此不作特别限制。
本发明实施例提供的基于CA的信号传输方法,通过判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态;若辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,则生成指示信号,并将指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给接收侧设备,以供接收侧设备根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。由于发送侧设备在辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测的状态时,向该接收侧设备发送指示信号,接收侧设备在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号,从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。
图2为本发明基于CA的信号传输方法实施例二的流程示意图。本实施例在图1所示实施例的基础上,对在辅载波上发送信号的实施例,做详细说明。如图2所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:
步骤201、将CCA计数器的值置为随机数N;其中,N为整数,且大于0。
在本实施例中,由于在U-Carrier上传输数据之前,需要先对U-Carrier进行侦听,以检测该U-Carrier有没有被其它设备所占用,即是否处于空闲状态。在具体的实现过程中,可以通过能量检测或信号检测等方法对该U-Carrier的状态进行侦听。本实施例中以能量检测为例进行说明,具体地,基站通过在预设时间段内检测U-Carrier信道上的信号功率值,判断该信号功率值是否超过预设阈值,若超过,则说明U-Carrier被其它设备所占用,若没有超过该预设阈值,则说明U-Carrier处于空闲状态,其中,预设时间段和预设阈值的取值可以根据经验或者实际情况进行选择,对于预设时间段和预设阈值的具体值的选取,本实施例在此不作特别限制。例如:基站采用能量检测的方式 对U-Carrier进行侦听时,通过持续检测20us后,如果检测到的信号功率超过-62dBm,则认为该U-Carrier被其它设备所占用。在实际应用过程中,一般通过结合CCA计数器的方式,对U-Carrier进行N次检测,以提高检测的准确性。具体地,开始检测时,将CCA计数器的值置为N,其中,N为在预设数值范围内随机选取的一个大于0的整数,预设数值范围例如可以为4-32,对于预设数值范围,本实施例在此不作特别限制。
步骤202、对辅载波进行CCA检测,若检测结果为辅载波没有被占用,则将CCA计数器的值减1,并重复执行此步骤,直至CCA计数器的值为0时,在辅载波上发送信号。
在本实施例中,将CCA计数器的值置为N之后,基站开始不断的侦听辅载波的状态,若每侦听一次,发现该辅载波没有被其它设备所占用,则将CCA计数器的值减1。如果在CCA计数器的值减到0之前,某一次CCA检测的结果是辅载波被其它设备所占用,则将CCA计数器当前的值清零,并重新在预设的数值范围内随机选取一个N’值,将CCA计数器的值置为N’,重新开始检测,并不断地重复这个过程,直到CCA计数器的值减到0时,基站才可以在辅载波上发送信号。
需要进行说明的是,通过辅载波发送一定时长的信号之后,若需要继续发送信号,则必须对辅载波进行重新侦听,当确认没有其它设备占用辅载波后,才能继续发送,若侦听之后发现该辅载波被其它设备占用了,则基站就需要等待,直到辅载波处于空闲状态后,才可以继续发送。若辅载波在预设时间段内一直处于被占用的状态,则基站通过主载波发送信号,或将待发送的数据进行丢弃。在具体的实现过程中,可根据经验或者业务类型选择合适的预设时间段,例如,当业务类型为语音通话时,将预设时间段选取为80ms,当浏览网页时,将预设时间段选取为2s等。对于预设时间段的具体值的选取,本实施例在此不作特别限制。
本发明实施例提供的基于CA的信号传输方法,通过判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态;若辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,则生成指示信号,并将指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给接收侧设备,以供接收侧设备根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。由于发送侧设备在辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测的状态时,向该接收侧设备 发送指示信号,接收侧设备在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号,从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。另外,当检测到辅载波没有被其它设备占用时,发送侧设备可以通过辅载波发送信号,由于通过主载波和辅载波同时进行通信,增加了载波的数量,从而极大地提高了通信的速率。
图3为本发明基于CA的信号传输方法实施例三的流程示意图。本实施例在图1和图2所示实施例的基础上,对判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态的实施例,做详细说明。如图3所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:
步骤301、在通过主载波发送当前子帧时,获取CCA计数器的值M,其中,M为大于或等于0,且小于或等于N的整数。
在本实施例中,若在通过主载波发送当前子帧之前,基站就已经开始检测辅载波的状态,而且在基站通过主载波发送当前子帧时,该检测过程还在继续,此时,可以获取到CCA计数器的数值M。具体地,若基站在检测辅载波的状态的过程中,发现该辅载波没有被其它设备所占用,则数值M为CCA计数器的初始值N随着检测次数不断的减1之后,得到的结果,此时,M为大于或等于0,且小于N的整数;若在基站通过主载波发送当前子帧时,由于辅载波被其它设备所占用,此时,需要对CCA计数器的值在预设数值范围内重新选取,并将重新选取的数值作为CCA计数器的值M,则M有可能等于N,也有可能小于N。
步骤302、若CCA计数器的值大于0时,计算获取从CCA计数器的值M减至0对应的第一时间。
在本实施例中,当获取到CCA计数器的值M后,计算从CCA计数器的值M减至0对应的第一时间,即基站对辅载波的状态检测M次所需要的时间。例如,获取到的CCA计数器的值M为21,假设对辅载波检测一次所需要的时间为20us,则计算获取到的第一时间为420us。
步骤303、比较第一时间和第二时间,其中,第二时间为主载波的当前子帧所剩余的时间。
在本实施例中,本领域技术人员可以理解,基站通过无线帧进行数据的传输时,其中,一个无线帧的周期为10ms,其包括10个子帧。因此,每发送一个子帧所需要的时间为1ms。由于第一时间是在基站发送当前子帧之前 就已经获得,因此,主载波的当前子帧所剩余的时间为发送整个当前子帧所需要的时间,即第二时间为1ms。
步骤304、若第一时间小于或等于第二时间,则判断辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态。
在本实施例中,对第一时间和第二时间进行比较之后,若第一时间小于或等于第二时间,则说明在通过主载波发送当前子帧期间内,已经启动的CCA计数器有可能会减到0,此时,将获知辅载波处于UE需要检测状态,而且基站会生成一个指示信号,并将该指示信号携带在当前子帧中,发送给UE。
需要进行说明的是,第一时间是假设辅载波一直没有被其它设备所占用,连续的检测M次所需要的时间,若第一时间小于或等于第二时间,并不能说明辅载波在第二时间内是处于空闲状态的。例如:在通过主载波向接收侧设备发送当前子帧时,计算获知第一时间小于或等于第二时间,此时,会将指示信号携带在当前子帧中发送给UE。但是,对辅载波状态的检测过程会继续进行,若在检测过程中,发现辅载波被其它设备占用了,此时,便不能通过辅载波进行信号的传输。在这种情况下,当UE接收到指示信号之后,虽然会根据指示信号对辅载波进行检测,但是不一定会在辅载波上检测到基站发送的信号。
本发明实施例提供的基于CA的信号传输方法,通过判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态;若辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,则生成指示信号,并将指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给接收侧设备,以供接收侧设备根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。由于发送侧设备在辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测的状态时,向该接收侧设备发送指示信号,接收侧设备在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号,从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。另外,通过比较从CCA计数器的值M减至0对应的第一时间,和通过主载波发送当前子帧所剩余的第二时间之间的大小,得出辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,从而决定是否对接收侧设备发送指示信号,由此可以最大效率的利用辅载波进行信号的传输。
图4为本发明基于CA的信号传输方法实施例四的流程示意图。本实施例在图1所示实施例的基础上,对判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测 状态的实施例,做详细说明。本实施例与实施例三的不同之处在于:若在通过主载波向接收侧设备发送当前子帧的过程中,开始对辅载波进行CCA检测时,如何判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态。如图4所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:
步骤401、在通过主载波向接收侧设备发送当前子帧的过程中,启动对辅载波的CCA检测,并将CCA计数器的值置为随机数N,其中,N为整数,且大于0。
在本实施例中,在基站通过主载波向UE发送当前子帧的过程中,若在判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态时,基站启动对辅载波状态的CCA检测,此时,从预设的数值范围内随机选取一个数值N,作为CCA计数器的值。
步骤402、计算获取从CCA计数器的值N减至0对应的第三时间。
在本实施例中,当获取到CCA计数器的值N后,计算从CCA计数器的值N减至0对应的第三时间,即基站对辅载波的状态检测N次所需要的时间。
步骤403、比较第三时间和第二时间,其中,第二时间为主载波的当前子帧中从启动CCA检测到当前子帧结束所剩余的时间。
在本实施例中,每发送一个无线帧中的一个子帧所需要的时间为1ms,而由于在基站发送当前子帧的过程中才启动对辅载波的CCA检测,即才获得第三时间,因此,第二时间为主载波的当前子帧中从启动CCA检测到当前子帧结束所剩余的时间,例如:在开始发送当前子帧后的200us时,基站才计算获得第三时间,此时,基站将得到的第三时间,与在主载波的当前子帧中从启动CCA检测到当前子帧结束所剩余的时间800us进行比较。
步骤404、若第三时间小于或等于第二时间,则判断辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态。
在本实施例中,对第三时间和第二时间进行比较之后,若第三时间小于或等于第二时间,则说明基站在通过主载波发送的当前子帧在结束之前,开始启动的CCA计数器有可能会减到0,此时,将判断获知辅载波处于UE需要检测状态,因此基站会生成指示信号,并将该指示信号携带在主载波的当前子帧中,发送给UE。
需要进行说明的是,第三时间是假设辅载波一直没有被其它设备所占用, 连续的检测N次所需要的时间,若第三时间小于或等于第二时间,并不能说明辅载波在第二时间内是处于空闲状态的。例如:在通过主载波向UE发送当前子帧时,计算获知第三时间小于或等于第二时间,此时,基站会将指示信号携带在主载波的当前子帧中发送给UE。但是,对辅载波状态的检测过程继续进行,若在检测过程中,发现辅载波被其它设备占用了,此时,便不能通过辅载波进行信号的传输。在这种情况下,当UE接收到指示信号之后,虽然会根据指示信号对辅载波进行检测,但是在辅载波上不一定能检测到发送侧设备发送的信号。
本发明实施例提供的基于CA的信号传输方法,通过判断辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态;若辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,则生成指示信号,并将指示信号携带在主载波的子帧中发送给接收侧设备,以供接收侧设备根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。由于发送侧设备在辅载波处于接收侧设备需要检测的状态时,向该接收侧设备发送指示信号,接收侧设备在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号,从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。另外,通过比较从CCA计数器的值N减至0对应的第三时间,和主载波的当前子帧从启动CCA检测到当前子帧结束所剩余的第二时间之间的大小,得出辅载波是否处于接收侧设备需要检测状态,从而决定是否对接收侧设备发送指示信号,由此可以最大效率的利用辅载波进行信号的传输。
图5为本发明基于CA的信号传输方法实施例五的流程示意图。本发明实施例提供了一种基于CA的信号传输方法,本实施例的执行主体为接收侧设备,例如可以为基站或者UE,当发送侧设备为基站时,对应的接收侧设备为UE,当发送侧设备为UE时,对应的接收侧设备为基站。本实施例中以基站为发送侧设备,UE为接收侧设备为例进行说明。如图5所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:
步骤501、接收发送侧设备通过主载波发送的子帧。
步骤502、若子帧中携带有指示信号,则根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。
在本实施例中,当基站判断出辅载波处于UE需要检测状态时,将生成的指示信号携带在当前正在发送的子帧中,并将该子帧发送给UE。UE在接 收到基站发送的子帧后,会对该子帧进行解析,若子帧中携带有指示信号,则根据该指示信号,从本子帧开始对辅载波进行侦听,以检测该辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。若在本子帧内检测到辅载波上有发送侧设备发送的信号,则基站和UE开始在辅载波上进行通信。
本发明实施例提供的基于CA的信号传输方法,通过接收发送侧设备通过主载波发送的子帧,若子帧中携带有指示信号,则根据指示信号,检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。由于接收侧设备只在接收到指示信号之后才开始检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号,而不需要时时进行检测,从而降低了通信系统的复杂度和功耗。
可选地,如上所述的方法实施例,若子帧中未携带有指示信号,则不检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。
具体地,当UE接收到基站发送的子帧并对该子帧进行解析之后,发现子帧中未携带有指示信号,则不检测辅载波上是否有发送侧设备发送的信号。

  14. 根据权利要求13所述的发送侧设备,其特征在于,所述处理器,还用于将可用信道评估CCA计数器的值置为随机数N;
    所述处理器,还用于对所述辅载波进行CCA检测,若检测结果为所述辅载波没有被占用,则将所述CCA计数器的值减1,并重复执行此步骤,直至所述CCA计数器的值为0时,在所述辅载波上发送信号;其中,N为整数,且大于0。
  15. 根据权利要求14所述的发送侧设备,其特征在于,所述处理器,还用于在通过所述主载波发送所述当前子帧时,获取所述CCA计数器的值M;若所述CCA计数器的值大于0时,计算获取从所述CCA计数器的值M减至0对应的第一时间;比较所述第一时间和第二时间,其中,所述第二时间为所述主载波的当前子帧所剩余的时间;若所述第一时间小于或等于所述第二时间,则判断所述辅载波处于所述接收侧设备需要检测状态;其中,M为大于或等于0,且小于或等于N的整数。
  16. 根据权利要求13所述的发送侧设备,其特征在于,所述处理器,还用于在通过所述主载波向所述接收侧设备发送所述当前子帧的过程中,启动对所述辅载波的CCA检测,并将CCA计数器的值置为随机数N;计算获取从所述CCA计数器的值N减至0对应的第三时间;比较所述第三时间和第二时间,其中,所述第二时间为所述主载波的当前子帧中从启动CCA检测到当前子帧结束所剩余的时间;若所述第三时间小于或等于所述第二时间,则判断所述辅载波处于所述接收侧设备需要检测状态;其中,N为整数,且大于0。
  17. 一种接收侧设备,其特征在于,包括:
    接收器,用于接收发送侧设备通过主载波发送的子帧;
    处理器,用于若所述接收器接收的所述子帧中携带有指示信号,则根据所述指示信号,检测所述辅载波上是否有所述发送侧设备发送的信号。
  18. 根据权利要求17所述的接收侧设备,其特征在于,所述处理器,还用于若所述接收器接收的所述子帧中未携带有指示信号,则不检测所述辅载波上是否有所述发送侧设备发送的信号。
