Whether UERS needs to be transmitted on the symbol), if it is judged as YES, it is prohibited to transmit UERS on the symbol. Further optionally, since the port of one UERS occupies two symbols adjacent to the time domain, if the first complete symbol after obtaining the channel usage right is the previous symbol of the adjacent two symbols occupied by the UERS, for example Symbol 5, then the UERS is prohibited from being transmitted on the adjacent two symbols (symbol 5 and symbol 6).

Description
本发明涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种数据传输方法、装置和系统。
许可辅助接入LTE(Licensed-Assisted Access Using LTE,简称LAA-LTE)系统致力于利用现有LTE系统中的载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,简称CA)的配置和结构,以配置运营商许可频谱上的载波进行通信为基础,配置多个免许可频谱上的载波并以许可载波为辅助进行免许可载波上通信,通过利用免许可频谱资源达到网络容量分流的目的,从而减小许可载波的负载。
LAA-LTE使用的免许可频段的共存规范包括传输功率控制(Transmit Power Control,简称TPC)、动态频率选择(Dynamic Frequency Selection,简称DFS)、信道占用带宽和先听后说(Listen before talk,简称LBT)等等。TPC是为了防止无线通信设备发射过大的功率来干扰雷达。DFS是为了使无线通信设备主动探测雷达使用的频率,并主动选择另一个频率,以避开雷达频率。信道占用带宽的要求是当无线通信设备在免许可频段上工作时所占用的信道带宽,应达到其声称的信道带宽的80%~100%。LBT是系统间的共存策略,无线通信系统在占用免许可频段通信时需使用先检测后发送规则。
LBT机制又分为基于帧的设备(Frame based equipment,简称FBE)的LBT机制和基于负载的设备(Load based equipment,简称LBE)的LBT机制。在LAA-LTE系统中,遵循现有LTE系统中的载波聚合机制,免许可频谱上的载波的子帧边界和许可频谱上的载波的子帧边界应是对齐的,但是在免许可频谱上,如果采用基于LBE的LBT机制,理论上基站可能从任意时刻获得免许可频谱上的信道的使用权。当基站获取免许可频谱上的信道的使用权的时刻距离下一个子帧边界的时间长度小于一个子帧时,为了避免资源浪费,LAA
系统允许在这个时间长度内进行传输,传输的起始位置可以为除第一个符号外的任意一个符号的起始位置。从接收端来看,用户设备需要对传输的控制信道和数据信道进行解调。

应理解,在LTE或LAA-LTE系统中,从时间维度上来看,假设最小的时间单元为Ts,1Ts=1/(15000×2048)秒;1个不包括循环前缀部分的OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing,正交频分复用)符号的时间长度为2048×Ts,约等于66.7微秒;一个子帧的时间长度为1ms,具体有两种子帧格式。一种是正常循环前缀(Normal Cyclic Prefix,简称为NCP)子帧格式,一个NCP子帧包括14个OFDM符号;将OFDM符号从0开始标号至13,则其中的第0号和第7号OFDM符号的时间长度为2208×Ts,其他的12个OFDM符号的时间长度为2192×Ts;将第0号至第6号OFDM符号定义为奇数时隙,将第7号至第13号OFDM符号定义为偶数时隙。另一种是长循环前缀(Extended Cyclic Prefix,简称为ECP)子帧格式,一个ECP子帧包括12个OFDM符号;每个OFDM符号的时间长度为2560×Ts;将OFDM符号从0开始标号至11,将第0号至第5号OFDM符号定义为奇数时隙,将第6号至第11号OFDM符号定义为偶数时隙。如果没有特殊说明,在本发明实施例中,都是以NCP子帧格式为例,ECP子帧格式可以推导得出。
首先,为描述方便,本申请文件引入“部分子帧”的概念。“部分子帧”是由一个子帧中自用于数据传输的起始符号开始到该子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的所有符号构成,其中,用于数据传输的起始符号可以是第一个符号以外的任意一个符号。也就是说,部分子帧在时域上的长度为从用于数据传输的起始符号的起始时刻到下一个子帧的起始时刻之间的时间长度。相对于“部分子帧”,本申请文件还引入了“完整子帧”的概念。一个完整子帧相对于一个部分子帧而言,完整子帧包含了系统定义的一个子帧中的所有符号。以下内容中出现的“部分子帧”和“完整子帧”,其含义与上述描述相同,不再赘述。
在部分子帧的传输技术中,一种方法是按照LTE系统定义的DwPTS(Downlink Pilot Time Slot,下行导频时隙)的参考信号图案,在部分子帧中传输参考信号。采用这种方法有很多缺点,首先,现有DwPTS格式支持的特殊子帧传输的符号个数为6个、9个、10个、11个、12个,相应地,基站允许的数据传输起始位置为第2、3、4、5、8号符号,其中奇数时隙可能的符号起始位置有4个,偶数时隙可能的符号起始位置只有1个,奇数时隙和偶数时隙允许传输的符号个数不对称。其次,复用DwPTS的子帧结构,允许数据传输的起始位置至少为符号8,如果基站在符号8以后抢占到信道则在当前的部分子帧不能传输,开销较大。再次,现有DwPTS有两套不同的用户专属参考信号(UE-specific reference signal,简称UERS,也叫,Demodulation Reference Signal,解调参考信号)图案,再加上完整子帧的UERS的参考信号图案,基站需要提前准备包含至少3套不同的参考信号位置的数据子帧映射,基站实现复杂度较高。
在部分子帧的传输技术中,另一种方法是在部分子帧中传输的参考信号的图案是从LTE系统定义的完整子帧的参考信号图案的第一个符号开始复用的。
图1示出了天线端口等于2时的CRS(Cell-specific Reference Signal,小区专用参考信号)信号位置。图1中,一个子帧包含2个时隙,每个时隙包含7个OFDM符号。其中,在第0,4,7,11号符号上有CRS,在第5,6,12,13号符号上有UERS。根据上述方法,假设基站的数据传输起始位置为第9号符号,那么第9号符号上的参考信号图案和完整子帧的第0号符号上的参考信号图案相同,相应地,第10、11、12、13号符号上的参考信号图案也和完整子帧的第1、2、3、4号符号上的参考信号图案相同。在这种情况下,没有UERS参考信号被传输,即部分子帧不能支持基于UERS解调的传输模式。为了保证能支持基于UERS解调的传输模式,基站的数据传输起始位置至少应为第7号符号才能传输UERS,但这说明基站在符号7以后抢占到信道也不能在当前的部分子帧传输,开销较大。
在部分子帧的传输技术中,又一种方法是在部分子帧中传输的参考信号的图案位置是和LTE系统定义的完整子帧的参考信号图案的位置相同。例如,假设基站的数据传输起始位置为第9号符号,那么第9号符号上的参考信号图案和完整子帧的第9号符号上的参考信号图案相同,相应地,第10、11、12、13号符号上的参考信号图案也和完整子帧的第10、11、12、13号符号上的参考信号图案相同。在LTE系统中,为了保证估计精度,用于频偏估计的两个符号之间的时间间隔通常应不小于一个固定值,例如3个符号。但是在这种情况下,部分子帧仅在第11、12、13号符号上有参考信号,不能保证频偏估计的性能,因此不利于对该部分子帧上所传输的数据进行解调。
由此可见,在不增加基站实现复杂度和系统开销的情况下,如何通过传输的参考信号保证用户设备对部分子帧的解调性能,是目前亟需解决的问题。
为了实现免许可频谱上部分子帧的传输,保证用户设备对部分子帧的解调性能,本发明实施例中,将CRS的位置随着部分子帧的开始时间进行调整,保证部分子帧的起始符号上传输有CRS。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于利用免许可频段的LAA-LTE系统,也可以应用于其他具有与之类似、固定的子帧边界或者符号边界、且具有资源竞争需求的通信系统。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案中提及的符号可以是LAA-LTE系统或者LTE系统中的一个OFDM符号,具体地,OFDM符号包括循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix,简称为CP)部分和信息段部分,其中信息段部分包括了一个OFDM符号的全部信息;CP是对一部分信息段信号的重复。本发明实施例的技术方案中提及的符号也可以是其他类型的通信的符号,本发明对此不作限定。
应理解,本发明实施例中提及的OFDM符号具有时间维度和频率维度的属性,其中时间维度的属性包括OFDM符号的时间长度,频率维度的属性包括子载波个数、子载波带宽等。
应理解,本发明实施例提及的基站和用户设备所处的通信系统是具有预定义、或者说固定的子帧起始时刻、子帧结束时刻、符号起始时刻、符号结
束时刻的通信系统。这种通信系统以固定的时间单元划分时间,也就是说,当确定了时间单元的粒度,一个时间单元的起始时刻、结束时刻,那么就可以知道过去和未来的时间单元的起始时刻与结束时刻。在本发明实施例中,子帧边界指代子帧起始时刻或者子帧结束时刻,符号边界指代符号的起始时刻或者结束时刻,一个子帧的起始时刻等同于上一个子帧的结束时刻,一个符号的起始时刻等同于上一个符号的结束时刻。
还应理解,在本发明实施例中,在一定区域范围内,由同一个运营商运营的通信系统,例如LAA-LTE系统,许可频谱上的载波为主载波,免许可频谱上的载波为辅载波,免许可频谱上的辅载波的子帧边界与许可频谱上的主载波的子帧边界是对齐的。在免许可频谱上,基站可能从任意时刻获得免许可频谱信道的使用权。当基站获取免许可频谱上的辅载波的信道使用权的时刻刚好和许可频谱上的主载波的子帧边界对齐时,基站在辅载波上可以按现有LTE结构正常进行传输;当基站获取免许可频谱上的辅载波的信道使用权的时刻距离主载波的下一个子帧边界的时间长度小于一个子帧时,为了避免资源浪费,LAA系统允许在这个时间长度内进行部分子帧的传输,部分子帧的起始位置可以为除第一个符号外的任意一个符号的起始位置。
在本发明实施例中,用户设备(User Equipment,简称为UE)可称之为终端(Terminal)、移动台(Mobile Station,简称为MS)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal)等,该用户设备可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,简称为RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,例如,用户设备可以是移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)、具有移动终端的计算机等,例如,用户设备还可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语音和/或数据。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以是LTE系统或者LAA-LTE系统中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,简称为eNB或e-NodeB)、宏基站、微基站(也称为“小基站”)、微微基站、接入站点(Access Point,简称为AP)或传输站点(Transmission Point,简称为TP)等,本发明对此并不限定。但为描述方便,
下述实施例将以基站和用户设备为例进行说明。
下面结合附图对本发明实施例进行详细描述。
参见图2,为本发明实施例提供的在基站侧实现的数据传输流程示意图。如图所示,该流程可包括以下步骤:
步骤201:基站确定子帧中用于进行数据传输的起始符号,所述起始符号是除第一个符号以外的一个符号。
其中,所述子帧中自所述起始符号开始到所述所述子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的所有符号构成部分子帧,也就是说,该部分子帧在时域上的长度为从所述起始符号的起始时刻到下一个子帧的起始时刻之间的时间长度。
应理解,所述起始符号是基站开始传输物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,简称为PDCCH)和/或物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,简称为PDSCH)和/或增强物理下行控制信道(Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel,简称为EPDCCH)的第一个符号。
在具体实施步骤201的过程中,可选地,基站先通过竞争的方法获取信道的使用权,然后再确定在所述信道上传输的起始符号。可选地,基站确定的起始符号可以是该基站获得信道的使用权后的第一个完整符号。例如,如果基站在一个完整子帧的第7号符号的起始时刻和结束时刻之间的时刻获得信道的使用权,那么该基站可以确定部分子帧起始符号为第8号符号。可选地,基站确定的部分子帧起始符号可以是该基站获得信道的使用权后的第二个完整符号。例如,如果基站在一个完整子帧的第7号符号的起始时刻和结束时刻之间的时刻获得信道的使用权,那么该基站可以确定部分子帧起始符号为第9号符号,其中,从基站获得信道使用权的时刻到第8号符号的结束时刻可用于传输前导序列或仅用于传输填充信号,用于UE(User Equipment,用户设备,也称终端)调整AGC(Automatic Gain Control,自动增益控制)。
在具体实施步骤201的过程中,可选地,所述起始符号为预定义的符号起始位置中的一个。可选地,基站确定部分子帧的起始符号可以是该基站获
得信道的使用权后的第一个属于预定义的符号起始位置集合中的符号。例如,如果预定义的符号起始位置集合为一个完整子帧的第0号、第3号、第7号、第10号符号,基站在一个完整子帧的第7号符号的起始时刻和结束时刻之间的时刻获得信道的使用权,那么该基站可以确定部分子帧起始符号为第10号符号。
在具体实施步骤201的过程中,可选地,所述子帧占用的频谱资源为免许可频谱资源。更具体可选地,基站可以基于LBT的准则,通过竞争的方法获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权;或者,基站可以通过与邻近的通信设备协调或者调度后,获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权;或者,基站可以通过预先配置的资源使用图案,获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权。
进一步地,在多个载波的情况下,不同载波上的起始符号可能相同。
步骤202:基站确定在所述子帧中自所述起始符号开始到所述子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列,其中,所述基站确定所述起始符号上传输CRS。
所述参考信号的位置包括时域和/或频域位置,具体地,可以是指参考信号所映射到的资源单元(Resource element,RE)在物理资源块(Physical Resource Block,简称为PRB)中的位置。可以理解为,参考信号的位置是指:在1个PRB中,参考信号所占用的RE的位置。LTE系统在时域上1个子帧中包含一个PRB对,其中每个PRB的长度是一个时隙的长度,可包含7个符号,在频域上可包含12个子载波。LTE系统的CRS伪随机序列生成的初始化参数是由该CRS序列所在符号在该PRB中的时域序号扰码获得的,因此1个PRB内每个符号上发送的CRS的序列都不同。
进一步地,图2所示的流程的步骤202中,基站可根据预先定义的参考信号图案,确定起始符号之后的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列。这样,使得起始符号之后的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列遵循现有协议规定,减少了系统实现复杂度。例如,如果部分子帧中需要传输UERS,则在该部分子帧中的起始符号之后的符号上,可按照现有的UERS图案来映射
UERS,其中,所述UERS图案是参考信号图案中UERS的图案。图3A、图3B和图3C分别示出了几种现有的UERS图案,其中,图3A和图3B为DwPTS特殊子帧的UERS图案,图3C为完整子帧的UERS图案。当然,对于起始符号之后的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列,本发明实施例也可以重新进行定义。
可选地,基站通过信道竞争获得信道使用权后,可在步骤202中,根据预先定义的参考信号图案,判断获得信道使用权后的第一个完整符号(即所述部分子帧的起始符号)上是否需要传输UERS,若判断为是,则禁止在该符号上传输UERS。进一步可选地,由于一个UERS的端口占用时域相邻的两个符号,如果所述获得信道使用权后的第一个完整符号是UERS所占用的相邻两个符号的前一个符号,例如符号5,那么禁止在该相邻的两个符号(符号5和符号6)上传输UERS。
可选地,在另一个实施例中,如果基站根据预先定义的参考信号图案,判断获得信道使用权后的第一个完整符号(即所述部分子帧的起始符号)上需要传输UERS,也可以将获得信道使用权后的第一个不传输UERS的符号确定为开始进行数据传输的起始符号,否则将获得信道使用权后的第一个完整符号确定为开始进行数据传输的起始符号。这样,可以使得起始符号上传输有CRS,但不会传输UERS,避免CRS和UERS的资源冲突,使得系统实现更为简单。
步骤202中,可选地,起始符号上传输的CRS的频域位置,与参考信号图案中用于传输CRS的第一符号上所传输的CRS的频域位置相同。即,可以理解为:起始符号上传输的CRS的频域位置,与一个完整子帧中用于传输CRS的符号中的某个符号(即上述第一符号)上的CRS频域位置相同。可选地,起始符号上传输的CRS的序列,与用于传输CRS的第一符号上所传输的CRS的序列相同。可选地,所述起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过所述起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
如果没有特殊说明,在本发明实施例中,都是以2个CRS天线端口为例,
对于1个CRS天线端口的情况可以同理推导得出。当基站传输4个CRS天线端口时,由于现有的一个完整子帧中的第1个符号上传输CRS的端口0和1,第2个符号上传输CRS的端口2和端口3,可选地,步骤202中,起始符号上传输CRS的端口0和端口1,起始符号之后的第1个符号上传输CRS的端口2和端口3;可选地,步骤202中,所述起始符号和/或所述起始符号之后的第1个符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过所述起始符号和/或所述起始符号之后的第1个符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
在一种实施例中,所述“第一符号”在子帧中的时域位置是预先约定的。其中,所述第一符号是指子帧中用于传输CRS的一个符号。
例如,可根据参考信号图案,从子帧中选取传输有CRS的一个符号作为上述“第一符号”。优选地,可将子帧中的第一个符号作为上述“第一符号”。
以图1所示的参考信号图案为例,一个子帧中的OFDM符号按照时序从前到后表示为符号0至符号13,1个PRB中,在1个OFDM符号上按照频率从低到高的顺序包含RE 0至RE 11。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号2,则符号2上传输有CRS,且符号2上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同,即,在符号0上,CRS的端口0映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输,那么在符号2上,CRS的端口0也映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输;在符号0上,CRS的端口1映射到RE 3和RE 9上传输,那么在符号2上,CRS的端口1也映射到RE3和RE 9上传输。符号2上传输的CRS所使用的序列可能与符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同;或者,符号2上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过符号2在PRB中的时域序号l=2进行扰码获得的。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号4、符号7或符号11,按照图1所示的参考信号图案,该起始符号上原本需要传输CRS,此种情况下,该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE可以与原本要传输的CRS所占用的RE相同;或者,该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与原本要传输的CRS
所使用的序列相同;或者,该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同。
如果起始符号为除此以外的其他符号,比如符号3,则可以按照上述原理确定该起始符号上传输的CRS的位置与符号0上传输的CRS的位置相同;该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列与符号0上传输的CRS的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
当然,也可以选取图1中的符号4、符号7或符号11作为上述“第一符号”,本发明实施例对选取的“第一符号”的位置不作限制,只要根据参考信号图案所选取的“第一符号”上传输有CRS。
在另一种实施例中上述流程中,该“第一符号”在子帧中的时域位置也可以是根据该第一符号与起始符号之间的时域位置关系确定的。
举例来说,根据“第一符号”与起始符号之间的时域位置关系,可以包括以下几种情况:
情况1:所述第一符号在所述起始符号之后,且是距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置,与起始符号之后且距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置相同。
以图1所示的参考信号图案为例,一个子帧中的OFDM符号按照时序从前到后表示为符号0至符号13,1个PRB中,在1个OFDM符号上按照频率从低到高的顺序包含RE 0至RE 11。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号1,则因符号4在符号1之后且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离符号1最近的符号,则符号1上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号4上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同,即,在符号4上,CRS的端口0映射到RE 3和RE 9上传输,那么在符号1上,CRS的端口0也映射到RE 3和RE 9上传输;在符号4上,CRS的端口1映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输,那么在符号1上,CRS的端口1也映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输。符
号1上传输的CRS所使用的序列可能与符号4上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同;或者,符号1上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过符号1在PRB中的时域序号l=1进行扰码获得的。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号2或符号3,则因符号4在该起始符号之后且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号4上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号4上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号5或符号6,则因符号7在该起始符号之后且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号7上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号7上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号5,可在符号5或符号5和6上禁止传输UERS;如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号6,可在符号6上禁止传输UERS。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号8、符号9或符号10,则因符号11在该起始符号之后且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号11上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号11上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号12或符号13,则因下一个完整子帧的符号0在该起始符号之后且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与下一个完整子帧的符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所
使用的序列与下一个完整子帧的符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号12,可在符号12或符号12和13上禁止传输UERS;如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号13,可在符号13上禁止传输UERS。
特别地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号0、符号4、符号7或符号11,则由于按照参考信号图案,这些符号上应该传输有CRS,则以这些符号作为部分子帧的起始符号时,该将这些符号自己视为“用于传输CRS的所有符号中在该起始符号之后且距离该起始符号最近的符号”,从而使得以这些符号作为部分子帧的起始符号时,该起始符号上传输的CRS与本应在该符号上传输的CRS的位置和序列一致。
情况2:所述第一符号在所述起始符号之前,且是距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置,与该子帧中该起始符号之前且距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置相同。
以图1所示的参考信号图案为例,一个子帧中的OFDM符号按照时序从前到后表示为符号0至符号13,1个PRB中,在1个OFDM符号上按照频率从低到高的顺序包含RE 0至RE 11。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号1,则因符号0在符号1之前且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离符号1最近的符号,则符号1上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同,即,在符号0上,CRS的端口0映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输,那么在符号1上,CRS的端口0也映射到RE 0和RE 6上传输;在符号0上,CRS的端口1映射到RE 3和RE 9上传输,那么在符号1上,CRS的端口1也映射到RE 3和RE 9上传输。符号1上传输的CRS所使用的序列可能与符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同;或者,符号1上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过符号1在PRB中的时域序号l=1进行扰码获得的。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号2或符号3,则因符号0在该起始符号之前且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号5或符号6,则因符号4在该起始符号之前且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号4上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号4上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号5,可在符号5或符号5和6上禁止传输UERS;如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号6,可在符号6上禁止传输UERS。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号8、符号9或符号10,则因符号7在该起始符号之前且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号7上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号7上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号12或符号13,则因符号11在该起始符号之前且是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号11上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号11上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号12,可在符号12或符号12和13上禁止传输UERS;
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号13,可在符号13上禁止传输UERS。
特别地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号0、符号4、符号7或符号11,则由于按照参考信号图案,这些符号上应该传输有CRS,则以这些符号作为部分子帧的起始符号时,该将这些符号自己视为“用于传输CRS的所有符号中在起始符号之前且距离该起始符号最近的符号”,从而使得以这些符号作为部分子帧的起始符号时,该起始符号上传输的CRS与本应在该符号上传输的CRS的位置和序列一致。
情况3:所述第一符号为所述子帧中距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置和序列,与子帧中距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置和序列相同。
以图1所示的参考信号图案为例,一个子帧中的OFDM符号按照时序从前到后表示为符号0至符号13,1个PRB中,在1个OFDM符号上按照频率从低到高的顺序包含RE 0至RE 11。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号1或符号2,则因符号0是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号0上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号0上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。其中,符号2与符号4之间的距离,与符号2与符号0之间的距离相等,因此如果符号2为起始符号,则符号2上传输的CRS的位置既可以与符号0上传输的CRS相同,也可以与符号4上传输的CRS相同。
如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号2、符号3或符号5,则因符号4是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号4上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号4上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在
PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。其中,起始符号为符号4时,由于根据参考信号图案,符号4上原本需要传输CRS,因此符号4被视为“用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号”,符号4上传输的CRS的位置和图案与参考信号图案中规定的符号4上传输的CRS一致。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号5,可在符号5或符号5和6上禁止传输UERS。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号6、符号7、符号8或符号9,则因符号7是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号7上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号7上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。其中,符号9与符号7之间的距离,与符号9与符号11之间的距离相等,因此如果符号9为起始符号,则符号9上传输的CRS的位置既可以与符号7上传输的CRS相同,也可以与符号11上传输的CRS相同。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号6,可在符号6上禁止传输UERS。
同理,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号10、符号11、符号12或符号13,则因符号11是用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号,则该起始符号上传输的CRS所占用的RE与符号11上传输的CRS所占用的RE位置相同。该起始符号上传输的CRS所使用的序列与符号11上传输的CRS所使用的序列相同,或者该起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过该起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。其中,起始符号为符号11时,由于根据参考信号图案,符号11上原本需要传输CRS,因此符号11被视为“用于传输CRS的所有符号中距离该起始符号最近的符号”,符号11上传输的CRS的位置和图案与参考信号图案中的规定符号11上传输的CRS一致。进一步地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号12,可在符号12或符号12和13上禁止传输UERS;如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号13,可在符号13上禁止传输UERS。
进一步地,由于起始符号上传输的CRS的频域位置与上述定义的“第一符号”上所传输的CRS的频域位置相同,那么如果该“第一符号”位于所述起始符号之后,则该“第一符号”上可以传输也可以不再传输CRS,原则上保证部分子帧中至少有2个符号传输CRS,且尽量保证传输CRS的符号在时域上分散排列。比如,上面的例子中,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号2,符号2上传输的CRS的频域位置和序列与符号4上传输的CRS相同,则由于时域上符号4距离符号2较近,则在该部分子帧的符号4上可不再传输CRS,而在符号7和符号11上传输CRS;如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号4,符号4上传输的CRS的频域位置和序列与符号7上传输的CRS相同,则在该部分子帧的符号7上可不再传输CRS,而在符号11上传输CRS;再比如,如果部分子帧的起始符号为符号6,符号6上传输的CRS的频域位置和序列与符号7上传输的CRS相同,则在该部分子帧的符号7上可不再传输CRS,而在符号11上传输CRS;如果部分子帧的起始符号是符号7,符号7上传输的CRS的频域位置和序列与符号11上传输的CRS相同,则在符号11上仍需传输CRS,以保证该部分子帧中有2个符号传输CRS。
步骤203:基站传输所述子帧中自所述起始符号开始到所述子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的所有符号。即,基站传输所述部分子帧。
该步骤中,可根据步骤202所确定出的该部分子帧中的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列,在该部分子帧的符号上传输参考信号。该部分子帧上还可传输控制信道和/或数据信道。
如前所述,起始符号上可传输控制信道。该控制信道可以是PDCCH,所述PDCCH中携带有PDSCH的调度信息,所述PDSCH可以是在所述子帧上传输的PDSCH,也可以是在所述子帧和所述子帧后的第一个子帧上传输的PDSCH。这样,图2所示的流程中,如果基站获得免许可频谱上的信道使用权后首先发送PDCCH,那么PDCCH上总是携带CRS序列。PDCCH和CRS在同一个符号上传输有利于PDCCH的快速解调。尤其在部分子帧的起始符号上传输的CRS与预先约定的符号上传输的CRS一致的情况下,可以进一步降
低PDCCH解调的复杂度。
参见图4,为本发明实施例提供的在用户设备侧实现的部分子帧传输流程示意图。如图所示,该流程可包括如下步骤:
步骤401:用户设备接收子帧。其中,所述子帧中自起始符号开始至所述子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的符号上传输有参考信号,所述子帧中的起始符号上传输有CRS,所述起始符号为第一个有数据传输的符号。
其中,所述子帧中传输的参考信号包括CRS,还可包括UERS。所述起始符号为一个完整子帧中除第一个符号以外的一个符号,所述完整子帧中自所述起始符号开始到所述完整子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的所有符号构成部分子帧。
应理解,所述起始符号是基站开始传输PDCCH和/或PDSCH和/或EPDCCH的第一个符号。可选地,所述起始符号上传输PDCCH时,所述PDCCH中携带有PDSCH的调度信息,所述PDSCH可以是在所述子帧上传输的PDSCH,也可以是在所述子帧和所述子帧后的第一个完整子帧上传输的PDSCH。这样,如果基站获得免许可频谱上的信道使用权后首先发送PDCCH,那么PDCCH上总是携带CRS序列。PDCCH和CRS在同一个符号上传输有利于PDCCH的快速解调。尤其在部分子帧的起始符号上传输的CRS与预先约定的符号上传输的CRS一致的情况下,可以进一步降低PDCCH解调的复杂度。
可选地,所述起始符号为预定义的符号起始位置中的一个。可选地,基站确定的起始符号可以是该基站获得信道的使用权后的第一个属于预定义的符号起始位置集合中的符号。例如,如果预定义的符号起始位置集合为一个完整子帧的第0号、第3号、第7号、第10号符号,基站在一个完整子帧的第7号符号的起始时刻和结束时刻之间的时刻获得信道的使用权,那么该基站可以确定部分子帧起始符号为第10号符号。
可选地,所述子帧占用的频谱资源为免许可频谱资源。更具体可选地,基站可以基于LBT的准则,通过竞争的方法获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权;
或者,基站可以通过与邻近的通信设备协调或者调度后,获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权;或者,基站可以通过预先配置的资源使用图案,获取免许可频谱的信道的使用权。
进一步地,在多个载波的情况下,不同载波上的起始符号可能相同。
所述参考信号的位置是指参考信号的时域和/或频域位置。可以理解为,参考信号的位置是指:在1个PRB中,参考信号所占用的RE的位置。
可选地,起始符号上传输的频域CRS的位置,与参考信号图案中用于传输CRS的第一符号上所传输的CRS的频域位置相同。可选地,起始符号上传输的CRS的序列,与所述用于传输CRS的第一符号上所传输的CRS的序列相同。可选地,所述起始符号上传输的CRS的序列生成的初始化参数是通过所述起始符号在PRB中的时域序号进行扰码获得的。
在一种实施例中,所述“第一符号”在该子帧中的时域位置是预先约定的。其中,所述第一符号是指子帧中用于传输CRS的一个符号。例如,可根据参考信号图案,从子帧中选取传输有CRS的一个符号作为上述“第一符号”。优选地,可将子帧中的第一个符号作为上述“第一符号”。当然,也可以选取图1中的符号4、符号7或符号11作为上述“第一符号”,本发明实施例对选取的“第一符号”的位置不作限制,只要根据参考信号图案所选取的“第一符号”上传输有CRS。
在另一种实施例中上述流程中,该“第一符号”在该子帧中的时域位置也可以是根据该第一符号与起始符号之间的时域位置关系确定的。举例来说,根据“第一符号”与起始符号之间的时域位置关系,可以包括以下几种情况:
情况1:所述第一符号所述起始符号之后,且是距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置,与完整子帧中起始符号之后且距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置相同。
情况2:所述第一符号在所述起始符号之前,且是距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置,与完整子帧
中该起始符号之前且距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置相同。
情况3:所述第一符号为距离所述起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号。这样,起始符号上传输的CRS的位置和序列,与完整子帧中距离该起始符号最近的用于传输CRS的符号上所传输的CRS的位置和序列相同。
可选地,所述起始符号之后的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列,是根据预先定义的参考信号图案确定的。
步骤402:所述用户设备根据所述参考信号对所述子帧中自所述起始符号开始至所述子帧的最后一个符号结束为止的符号进行解调。即,所述用户设备根据所述参考信号对所述部分子帧进行解调。
可选地,所述用户设备可以根据所述部分子帧上传输的参考信号进行定时和频偏估计,根据估计得到的同步信息对所述部分子帧中传输的数据进行解调。
上述流程中,用户设备所接收的子帧,可以是基站按照前述实施例描述的在基站侧实现的数据传输流程所发送的,因此更多相关内容可参见前述实施例。
通过以上描述可以看出,基站确定子帧中用于进行数据传输的起始符号,并确定需要在自该起始符号到该子帧的最后一个符号结束位置的符号上传输的参考信号的位置和序列,并保证在该起始符号上传输CRS,这样,对于用户设备来说,可以根据该起始符号上传输的CRS以及该起始符号之后的符号上传输的其他参考信号进行定时和频偏估计,以保证对该部分子帧中传输的数据的解调性能。本发明实施例将CRS的位置随着部分子帧的开始时间调整,保证第一个符号总是有一列CRS,其它的参考信号位置可以保持不变。根据本发明实施例提供的部分子帧映射方法,LAA eNB可以通过对数据穿刺(英文为puncture)的方式来映射部分子帧,从而降低实现复杂度。从用户设备的角度来看,部分子帧的时频同步性能可以被保证,从而保证解调性能。
为了更清楚地理解本发明的上述实施例,下面结合图5A、图5B、图5C
和图5D对具体场景下的实施过程进行详细描述。图5A、图5B、图5C和图5D分别示出了一种部分子帧的PRB示意图。
该具体场景中,LTE系统中的参考信号图案可如图1所示,1个时隙中包含7个OFDM符号。
图5A所示的实例中,PDCCH上携带的总是符号0的CRS的位置和序列。具体地,基站进行信道竞争,竞争到信道后,确定在符号4上开始数据传输,则在符号4上发送PDCCH,该PDCCH中携带符号0的CRS序列和位置。用户设备根据符号0上的CRS的位置和序列在符号4上进行PDCCH盲检测时可能能检测到该用户设备的PDCCH信息,从而根据PDCCH检测结果对该用户设备在该部分子帧上传输的PDSCH进行解调。
图5B所示的实例中,PDCCH上携带的总是最近的前一个用于传输CRS的符号上的CRS的位置和序列。具体地,基站进行信道竞争,竞争到信道后,确定在符号8上开始数据传输,则在符号8上发送PDCCH,该PDCCH中携带符号7的CRS序列和位置。用户设备根据符号7上的CRS的位置和序列在符号8上进行PDCCH盲检时可能能检测到该用户设备的PDCCH信息,从而根据PDCCH检测结果对该用户设备在该部分子帧上传输的PDSCH进行解调。
图5C所示的实例中,PDCCH上携带的总是最近的后一个用于传输CRS的符号上的CRS的位置和序列。具体地,基站进行信道竞争,竞争到信道后,确定在符号3上开始数据传输,则在符号3上发送PDCCH,该PDCCH中携带符号4的CRS序列和位置。用户设备根据符号4上的CRS的位置和序列在符号3上进行PDCCH盲检时可能能检测到该用户设备的PDCCH信息,从而根据PDCCH检测结果对该用户设备在该部分子帧上传输的PDSCH进行解调。
图5D所示的实例中,PDCCH上携带的总是最近的一个用于传输CRS的符号上的CRS的位置和序列。具体地,基站进行信道竞争,竞争到信道后,确定在符号10上开始数据传输,则在符号10上发送PDCCH,该PDCCH中携带符号11的CRS序列和位置。用户设备根据符号11上的CRS的位置和序列进行在符号10上进行PDCCH盲检时可能能检测到该用户设备的PDCCH信息,从而根据
PDCCH检测结果对该用户设备在该部分子帧上传输的PDSCH进行解调。
可选地,PDCCH的传输位置应避免和UERS的位置发生碰撞。如果部分子帧的起始符号为UERS所在的符号,比如符号5或符号6,则在该部分子帧不调度采用基于UERS解调的传输模式的用户设备,即,在该部分子帧不传输UERS信号。可选地,如果部分子帧的起始符号为UERS所在的符号,比如符号5或符号6,则在符号7传输PDCCH。
