Description

Unlicensed frequency band uplink power control method and related equipment

This application claims the priority of the Chinese Patent Application filed on February 4, 2016, the Chinese Patent Application No. 2016100800888.1, the invention name is "an unlicensed frequency band uplink power control method and related equipment", the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference. Combined in this application.

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an unlicensed frequency band uplink power control method and related equipment.

Background technique

As the volume of mobile data continues to grow, the spectrum resources become more and more tense. Only the use of licensed spectrum resources for network deployment and service transmission cannot meet the traffic demand. Therefore, the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system is considered to be unauthorized. Unlicensed LTE (U-LTE or LTE-U) is deployed on the spectrum resources to improve user experience and extend coverage.

Unlicensed spectrum can be shared by multiple wireless communication systems, such as Bluetooth, WiFi, etc., and unlicensed spectrum resources are used by multiple systems to preempt resources. Therefore, the coexistence between LTE-U deployed by different operators and wireless communication systems such as LTE-U and WiFi is the research focus and difficulty. The 3GPP requires that the wireless communication systems such as LTE-U and WiFi be coexisted equitably, and the unlicensed frequency band is used as a secondary carrier to be assisted by the primary carrier of the licensed frequency band. Listening before Talk (LBT) is the basic means of LTE-U competing access.

The channel access mechanism adopted by the 802.11 system is called the carrier sense/collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) mechanism. The way in which the WiFi preempts resources on the unlicensed spectrum is as shown in Figure 1. The specific process is as follows: first, the channel is monitored, when the channel is The idle time reaches the DCF Inter-Frame Space (DIFS; distributed channel access), and the current channel is determined to be an idle channel; then each station waiting for the access channel enters a random backoff phase. Used to avoid collisions between multiple sites on the same resource. In order to ensure fairness, it is stipulated that each site cannot occupy unlicensed spectrum resources for a long period of time. When the occupied time reaches a certain time or the data transmission reaches the upper limit, the occupied unlicensed spectrum resources need to be released for other systems to seize resources.

In order to provide an adaptive channel access mechanism with flexibility and fairness, Europe requires LBT technology in the unlicensed 5150-5350 megahertz (MHz) and 5470-5725 MHz bands. The Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) uses energy detection to determine whether the channel currently has a signal transmission, thereby determining whether the channel is occupied. The ETSI standard classifies devices in unlicensed bands as fame-based and load-based. They correspond to two types of access mechanisms: Frame Based Equipment (FBE) and load-based devices (Load Based). Equipment, referred to as LBE), as shown in Figure 2a is a schematic diagram of the ETSI FBE channel access mechanism. Figure 2b shows the channel access mechanism of the ETSI LBE option B.

In the FBE access mechanism, CCA detection is performed at a fixed position of the frame structure. As long as the channel has a CCA period judged to be empty, the channel is immediately accessed, and a data transmission process is initiated. A CCA period is not less than 20 us, and the channel transmission occupation time is relatively fixed. The minimum 1ms is 10ms maximum, and the idle period is at least 5% of the channel occupation time. The device performs new CCA detection and accesses the channel again during the CCA time at the end of the idle period. In the FBE mechanism, the channel occupation time plus the idle period is a fixed value called frame period.

The LBE access mechanism is similar to the CSMA/CA mechanism of WiFi. The time and starting point of each transmission channel are variable, and extended CCA detection is performed before the channel is acquired. First, according to the size q of the contention window (CW), a random factor N is generated until the channel idle time reaches N times of the CCA time, and the channel is idle, and the access channel initiates a data transmission process, and the largest channel is occupied. The time is 13ms. ETSI LBE is divided into two options: rotation A (option A) and option B (option B). The ETSI option B competition window is fixed and is the most basic LBE form.

3GPP currently defines four types for LBT: LBT category 1 does not require LBT; LBT category 2 has a fixed backoff value, does not need to be randomly rolled back before transmission initiation (burst), and only performs a single CCA detection. Channel, FBE is a special case of LBT category 2; LBT category 3 and LBT category 4 both use a random backoff value similar to CSMA/CA, LBT category 3 uses a fixed contention window, and ETSI LBE option B belongs to LBT category 3 The LBT category 4 is based on the ETSI LBE option B correction, using a load-based LBT, and the contention window is exponentially increasing or semi-statically configured. Since WiFi uses the CSMA/CA access mechanism, the competition window exponentially expands. In order to achieve fair coexistence of LTE-U and WiFi, 3GPP requires that LBT type 4 should be adopted at least in the downlink transmission of LTE-U. The uplink LBT scheme of LTE-U may adopt any of the four categories, and there is no conclusion yet.

When the LTE-U and the WiFi coexist, the LTE-U uses the energy detection method to identify the WiFi node, but the method is incapable of interfering with the interference between the WiFi and the LTE-U caused by the following scenarios. As shown in FIG. 3, the base station (eNB) schedules the uplink transmission of the UE1, and the STA1 that is farther from the UE1 on the other side of the base station does not detect the presence of the UE1, so that the access channel sends a signal to the AP, causing the signal of the STA1 to be The uplink signal of UE1 causes interference, and STA1 is a hidden node of UE1.

On the other hand, in the current LTE-U, the terminal can only perform uplink channel access by the base station, and the uplink channel access opportunity is much less than that of the WiFi that does not need to be scheduled. At the same time, the LTE system adopts uplink power control to ensure that the transmission power of the terminal satisfies the requirements of good reception of the base station without causing interference to other cells. The uplink power control of LTE consists of three parts. The first part is the basic open-loop operating point, the second part is the dynamic offset, and the third part is the bandwidth-related power offset. Wherein the basic open loop operating point is the decisive factor for uplink power control, can be expressed as: P ₀ + α × PL, where P _0, the terminal signal reaches the reference power at a base station, PL represents path loss, [alpha] indicates a path loss compensation factor , α takes 1 to represent the full compensation of the path loss. The power level of the terminal after the signal arrives at the base station is similar to the reference power P ₀ . The reference power value is only greater than the base station receiving sensitivity, and the reference power value is semi-static by the upper layer through Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling. Configured for each terminal. However, in the unlicensed frequency band, there is no coordination between different systems. For example, WiFi believes that the channel is considered idle as long as the energy detection result is less than -62 dBm (decibel milliwatts), which is much higher than the receiving sensitivity of LTE. If the transmission power of the terminal is small, the WiFi node in the vicinity of the UE accesses the channel, and a transmission collision occurs. The higher transmission power of the WiFi may seriously affect the uplink performance of the LTE-U; if the terminal always uses full power to transmit In turn, the terminal power consumption is too high, power consumption is wasted, and battery life is affected.

It can be seen that the power control scheme of the existing licensed frequency band is not applicable to the unlicensed frequency band.

detailed description

The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which FIG. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, in the LTE system, the detailed method for controlling the uplink power of the terminal in the unlicensed frequency band by the base station is as follows:

Step 401: The base station acquires interference intensity information of the interference communication node itself and/or the terminal.

In implementation, the base station acquires interference strength information of a non-LTE node or an LTE-U node of another carrier. And/or, the base station acquires interference strength information of a non-LTE node around the terminal or an LTE-U node of another operator.

Specifically, the base station acquires interference intensity information of the interference communication node in itself and/or the terminal, including but not limited to the following implementation manners:

First, the base station performs channel measurement in an idle time period of the unlicensed band channel, and obtains interference intensity information of the interfering communication node around itself according to the measurement result;

Second, the base station performs pre-call monitoring on the unlicensed band channel, and obtains interference intensity information of the interfering communication node around itself according to the result of pre-call monitoring;

Third, the base station detects the interfering communication node of the non-LTE system in its vicinity, and obtains the interference strength information of the interfering communication node of the non-LTE system in its own periphery;

Fourth, the base station detects the type of the interference communication node of the non-LTE system in its vicinity, and determines the interference communication node. Interference intensity information;

For example, the base station determines whether there is a WiFi site in the vicinity of the base station by detecting a beacon frame of the WiFi site. The Beacon frame is a broadcast frame sent by the WiFi site, and the Beacon frame carries configuration information of the WiFi site. The base station can also decode the preamble signal sent by the WiFi station to identify whether there is a WiFi station around itself.

Fifth, the base station detects the LTE-U nodes of other operators in its vicinity, and obtains the interference strength information of the LTE-U nodes of other operators;

For example, the base station identifies whether there are other operators' LTE-U sites in the vicinity of the carrier by detecting the carrier identifier carried in the received signal.

Sixth, the base station receives the interference strength information of the communication node around the terminal reported by the terminal, and the interference strength information of the communication node around the terminal is obtained by the terminal performing channel measurement on the unlicensed band channel according to the measurement result; or the communication node around the terminal The interference strength information is obtained by the terminal detecting the communication node of the non-LTE system in its vicinity; or the interference strength information reported by the terminal is determined by the terminal detecting the type of the interference communication node of the non-LTE system in its vicinity.

For example, the terminal determines whether there is a WiFi site in the vicinity of the terminal by detecting a beacon frame of the WiFi site. The Beacon frame is a broadcast frame sent by the WiFi site, and the Beacon frame carries configuration information of the WiFi site.

For example, the terminal identifies the LTE-U site of other operators by detecting the carrier identifier carried in the received signal.

Step 402: The base station determines the uplink transmit power of the terminal according to the interference strength information of the interference communication node in the vicinity of the terminal and/or the terminal.

In the implementation, the uplink transmit power of the terminal determined by the base station satisfies any one of the following three conditions, or simultaneously meets the following three conditions:

Condition one: the power of the uplink signal sent by the terminal according to the uplink transmit power to the base station is greater than the power of the base station and/or any one of the interference communication nodes around the terminal that arrives at the base station in step 401.

Condition 2: The uplink signal sent by the terminal according to the uplink transmit power reaches the power of any one of the interfering communication nodes in the base station and/or the terminal in step 401, which is greater than the first preset threshold.

In a specific implementation, the first preset threshold is not less than a threshold value that interferes with whether the communication node detects whether the channel is idle.

Condition 3: The power of the uplink signal sent by the terminal according to the uplink transmit power to the base station is greater than the first preset threshold.

Specifically, the first preset threshold is not less than a threshold value that interferes with whether the communication node detects whether the channel is idle.

In a specific embodiment, the base station determines the power target value of the terminal according to the interference strength information of the interference communication node in the vicinity of the terminal and/or the terminal, and determines the uplink transmit power of the terminal according to the power target value, where the power target value is characterized. The minimum power value of the uplink signal of the terminal when the uplink signal arrives at the base station is determined, and the uplink transmit power of the terminal is determined to be: the power of the uplink signal sent by the terminal according to the uplink transmit power to the base station is not less than the power target value.

Specifically, the base station determines the power target value of the terminal in different manners according to different application scenarios, as follows:

First, the base station determines that there is a strong interfering communication node whose interference strength is greater than a second preset threshold in the interfering communication node in the vicinity of the terminal. In this scenario, whether there is a strong interfering communication node whose interference intensity is greater than a second preset threshold, the base station Determining that the power target value of the terminal meets one of the following conditions:

The power target value is greater than the power of the interference signal of the strong interfering communication node to reach the base station;

When the uplink signal of the terminal arrives at the base station, the power is not less than the power target value, and the uplink signal of the terminal reaches the power of the strong interference communication node is greater than the first preset threshold;

The power target value is the power of the uplink signal sent by the terminal to the base station with the maximum transmit power.

Specifically, the base station improves the uplink transmit power of the terminal in the case that it is determined that there is a strong interfering communication node in the vicinity thereof, so that the uplink signal of the terminal reaches the power of the base station, that is, the power target value exceeds the power of the strong interfering communication node to reach the base station; or The power of the uplink signal of the terminal to reach the strong interference communication node exceeds a first preset threshold, for example, exceeds -62 dBm, where the -62 dBm is a threshold value for detecting whether the channel is idle by the WiFi station; or, due to the uplink transmit power of the terminal If the above two conditions are not met, that is, when the base station determines that the uplink transmit power of the terminal has been raised to the maximum value, the base station directly determines the power target value according to the maximum uplink transmit power of the terminal.

Second, if the base station determines that there is no strong interfering communication node whose interference strength is greater than the second preset threshold in the interfering communication node in the vicinity of the terminal, and determines that there is strong interference in the interfering communication node around the terminal that the interference strength is greater than the second preset threshold The communication node determines that the power target value of the terminal is satisfied: the power target value is greater than the first preset threshold.

Specifically, the base station improves the uplink transmit power of the terminal when determining that there is no strong interfering communication node in the vicinity of the terminal, and determines that there is a strong interfering communication node around the terminal, so that the power of the uplink signal of the terminal reaches the base station is greater than the first pre- The threshold value may be set. For example, the power of the uplink signal of the terminal when reaching the base station is greater than -62 dBm, and the -62 dBm is a threshold value for detecting whether the channel is idle by the WiFi station.

Third, if the base station determines that there is no communication node whose interference strength is greater than the second preset threshold in the interference communication node around the terminal, the base station determines that the power target value of the terminal is not lower than the third preset threshold.

Specifically, the third preset threshold is smaller than the first preset threshold.

Specifically, the base station determines that the uplink transmit power of the terminal only needs to be able to overcome the weak interference between the cells when the base station determines that there is no strong interfering communication node in the vicinity of the terminal, that is, the terminal can adopt a smaller uplink transmission. The third preset threshold depends on the receiving sensitivity of the base station and the weak interference between the cells. This situation can be compatible with the uplink power control of the LTE system in the licensed band.

Specifically, the power target value is mainly obtained by adjusting a reference power value when the uplink signal of the terminal reaches the base station. In the specific implementation, the power target value is expressed as follows:

_{P PUSCH (i) = min {} P CMAX, 10log 10 (M PUSCH (i)) +

_{P O_PUSCH (j) + α (} j) · PL + Δ TF (i) + f (i)}

Where i denotes a subframe index, 10log ₁₀ (M _PUSCH (i)) denotes a bandwidth-dependent power offset, which is a fixed value in the case of bandwidth determination, P _{O_PUSCH} (j) denotes a reference power value, α(j) PL represents a path loss, where α(j) is less than or equal to 1, indicating a compensation factor, and if α(j) is equal to 1 is expressed as full compensation, Δ _TF (i) + f(i) represents a dynamic offset value.

It can be seen from the expression that the bandwidth-related power offset is a fixed value, the path loss is determined by the measurement, and the dynamic offset value is relatively small. Therefore, the reference power value is greatly affected by the power target value. The reference power value may achieve the purpose of adjusting the power target value, and the sum of the reference power value and the bandwidth-related power offset value is approximately equal to the power target value.

Step 403: The base station configures the terminal to perform uplink signal transmission according to the uplink transmit power determined in step 402 in the unlicensed frequency band.

In the implementation, the base station determines the uplink transmit power of the terminal, which is mainly for determining the reference power value of the terminal. After determining the reference power value of the terminal, the base station configures the uplink transmit power of the terminal in the unlicensed band through semi-static signaling or dynamic signaling. Baseline power value. The semi-static signaling is a high communication command, and the dynamic signaling may be a physical uplink control channel (Physical Uplink Control Channel, PUCCH) signaling.

In the implementation, the first preset threshold, the second preset threshold, and the third preset threshold may be preset experience values or thresholds agreed by the protocol.

The following describes the process of the base station performing uplink power control on the terminal in the unlicensed frequency band by using three specific embodiments.

In step a, the base station acquires interference strength information of the non-LTE system and/or the communication node of other operators in the vicinity of the terminal or the terminal.

First, the base station measures the non-LTE system and/or other carrier's communication nodes in its vicinity to obtain interference strength information.

The specific measurement and detection methods include but are not limited to the following two types:

First, the base station can perform channel measurement and detection by using a time period in which the unlicensed frequency band does not schedule uplink or downlink transmission. The base station determines the interference strength of the non-LTE communication node or the LTE-U communication node of other operators according to the measurement result of the unlicensed frequency band.

For example, the base station determines whether there is a strong interference source around the base station according to the measured size of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of the LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier.

Second, the base station can perform a Listen Before Talk (LBT) operation in the unlicensed frequency band, and determine the strength of the channel interference according to the result of the energy detection performed by the LBT.

Third, the base station can detect the presence of the WiFi communication node.

For example, the base station detects a beacon frame of WiFi or detects a WiFi signal, so that it can be confirmed whether there is WiFi in the periphery of the base station.

Secondly, the terminal can measure and detect the non-LTE system and/or the communication node of the other operators in the manner of the base station, and report the interference strength information of the interference communication node that is obtained by the measurement to the base station.

The base station determines, according to the interference strength information of the interference communication node in the vicinity of the terminal, the interference strength information of the interference communication node around the terminal reported by the terminal, whether the base station and the terminal periphery have strong interference sources having a great influence on the reception performance, for example, The base station determines whether there is a WiFi station around the base station or the terminal according to its own measurement and detection result and the measurement and detection result of the terminal.

Step b: The base station determines, according to the interference strength information of the non-LTE system and/or the communication node of the other carrier in the vicinity of the terminal or the terminal, the LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier that affects its own receiving performance, The uplink transmit power of the terminal is determined according to the interference strength information of the LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other operator.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, STA1 is a hidden node of UE1, which will seriously affect the reception quality of the uplink signal of UE1. The base station may determine, according to the interference strength caused by the STA1, a suitable power target value, where the power target value represents the power of the terminal after the uplink signal arrives at the base station. In a simple implementation, the power target value is the reference power value. Here, for example only, in practical applications, the power target value is not limited to the reference power value.

In a specific implementation, the base station only needs to set the power target value of the uplink signal of the terminal to the base station to be set to be much higher than the power of the interference node signal to the base station, so that the interference source similar to the hidden node does not The uplink signal has a significant impact.

In another implementation, the base station sets the uplink signal of the terminal to reach the power target value of the base station, so that the power value of the uplink signal of the terminal in the range that has a great influence on the receiving performance of the base station is greater than a set threshold, for example, Threshold The value is -62dBm, which is only an example here. It is not excluded to set the threshold to other values, so that when the scheduled terminal performs uplink transmission, the interfering node near the base station cannot access the channel to avoid the occurrence of transmission collision.

The method provided by the specific embodiment can alleviate the interference of the hidden node, and can prevent the channel that the terminal is transmitting from being accessed by other systems.

Specifically, the base station sets various parameters of the power control according to the determined power target value, thereby determining an uplink transmit power of the terminal. The base station configures the uplink transmit power for the terminal through semi-static or dynamic signaling.

In particular, the base station can semi-statically configure the reference power according to the original LTE protocol, and can also configure the value of the reference power through dynamic signaling.

Second specific embodiment

Step a is the same as the description of step a of the first embodiment, and details are not described herein again.

Step b: The base station determines, according to the interference strength information of the non-LTE system and/or the communication node of the other carrier in the vicinity of the terminal or the terminal, that there is no LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier that affects its own receiving performance. And determining that there is an LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier that affects the receiving performance around the terminal, and determining the uplink transmit power of the terminal according to the interference strength information of the LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier.

Specifically, the base station may determine, according to the interference strength information of the interfering communication node around the terminal, a suitable power target value, where the power target value represents the power of the terminal after the uplink signal arrives at the base station. In a simple implementation, the power target value is a reference power value. Here, by way of example only, the power target value in the implementation is not limited to the reference power value.

Specifically, the base station may set the power target value to be greater than a preset threshold. For example, the preset threshold is near -62 dBm. This is only an example. In practice, the preset threshold is set to other values. Therefore, when the scheduled terminal performs uplink signal transmission, the interfering communication node around the terminal cannot access the channel, and the interfering communication node capable of accessing the channel when the terminal transmits cannot cause serious interference to the base station.

As shown in FIG. 6, when UE1 is transmitting, STA1 is far away from the eNB, and although STA1 can access the channel, it does not have a significant impact on the reception quality of the eNB; while STA2 is close to UE1 but detects that the channel is busy. , UE1 and STA2 will not have a transmission collision.

The method provided by the specific embodiment not only can effectively ensure the uplink transmission performance, but also does not need to use excessive power transmission by the terminal, which is beneficial to the terminal to save power.

In particular, the base station can semi-statically configure the reference power according to the original LTE protocol, and can also be configured by dynamic signaling. Set the value of the reference power.

Third specific embodiment

Step b: The base station determines, according to the interference strength information of the non-LTE system and/or the communication node of the other carrier in the vicinity of the terminal or the terminal, that there is no LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier that affects its own receiving performance. And determining that there is no LTE-U communication node of the non-LTE or other carrier that affects the receiving performance around the terminal, and determining that the uplink transmit power of the terminal is greater than a third preset threshold.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the base station sets the power target value of the terminal to a smaller value. For example, if the receiving performance is allowed, the difference between the power target value and the receiving sensitivity is set as much as possible. Within the scope, the advantages of the uplink power control of the LTE system in the licensed band can be inherited.
