本申请涉及通信领域,具体而言,涉及一种无线通信系统中的随机接入方法和装置、用户终端。
背景技术
在无线通信系统,例如eMTC(enhanced Machine Type Communication,增强MTC)和NB-IoT(NarrowBand Internet of Things,窄带物联网)标准协议中,支持由eNodeB(evolved Node B,演进型基站)发起的随机接入过程,比如eNodeB通过下发PDCCH order(PDCCH Physical Downlink Control Channel,物理下行控制信道)指示用户设备UE(User Equipment)发起随机接入过程。此时,eNodeB会指示UE使用的PRACH(Physical Random Access Channel,随机接入信道)资源信息(表1所示为PDCCH order指示的PRACH信息)。当UE收到eNodeB的指令后,即在eNodeB指定的资源上发送PRACH,对于eMTC系统,UE使用eNodeB指定的Preamble(即前导码)码字发送PRACH。
表1
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000001
在eMTC和NB-IoT系统中,PRACH资源是根据覆盖等级配置的,每个覆盖等级都对应一组PRACH时频资源、PRACH重复次数、随机接入次数,eMTC系统还会为每个覆盖配置一组preamble码字。
对于eNodeB发起的随机接入过程,eNodeB指示的PRACH资源索引或 子载波ID或preamble码字一定在初始覆盖等级的PRACH资源组中,以保证UE在初始覆盖等级上按照eNodeB指示的PRACH资源发起随机接入过程。但当UE在eNodeB指定的PRACH资源上多次发起随机接入失败需要提升覆盖等级时,eNodeB指示的PRACH资源索引或子载波ID或preamble码字在高一等级的PRACH资源组中可能并不存在,此时UE无法发起随机接入,或者按照eNodeB中指示的PRACH信息发送PRACH,但eNodeB不会响应,结果都将导致随机接入失败,降低了eNodeB发起的随机接入成功率。
针对相关技术中移动基站发起的随机接入成功率较低的技术问题,目前尚未提出有效的解决方案。

12 Any 0,2,4,6,8
步骤S301,在eMTC系统中,eNodeB指示UE发起随机接入(如下发PDCCH order),指示的RPACH资源信息包括:初始覆盖等级和Subcarrier indication of NPRACH(即子载波索引)。在eNodeB下发的PDCCH order中,指示的PRACH信息的含义如表4所示。
表4
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000003
步骤S302,UE收到PDCCH order,获取初始覆盖等级信息,并获取该等级对应的PRACH资源,包括时域位置、频域位置和Preamble码字,可用的PRACH时频资源数目为NPRACH。
如,UE根据初始覆盖等级获取PRACH资源组的时频资源信息、重复次数;UE根据Subcarrier indication of NPRACH和初始覆盖等级可用的PRACH子载波数目,计算其使用的PRACH子载波ID。
步骤S303,UE在确定的PRACH资源上发送PRACH。
如果eNodeB下发的PRACH Mask Index(时频域资源索引)在1-10范围内,UE根据PRACH Mask Index和PRACH时频资源数目(NPRACH),通过取模运算(mod)计算确定其使用的UE Mask Index(目标时频域资源索引):
UE Mask Index=(PRACH Mask Index-1)mod(NPRACH)+1,
或者,UE Mask Index=(PRACH Mask Index)mod(NPRACH)+1。
PRACH资源数目根据36.211协议中的PRACH资源配置获得。
PRACH Mask Index字段为其他值时,遵循36.321协议的定义。
UE根据eNodeB下发的Preamble Index(码索引)和Preamble码字个数(NPreamble)计算其使用的Preamble ID(目标子载波索引):
Preamble ID=(firstPreamble-r13)+(Preamble Index)mod(NPreamble),
NPreamble=(lastPreamble-r13)-(firstPreamble-r13)+1,
其中,firstPreamble-r13为“36.331”协议中的信元,为当前覆盖的起始Preamble码字;lastPreamble-r13为“36.331”协议中中的信元,为当前覆盖等级使用的最后一个Preamble码字。
UE根据上述步骤确定的PRACH和Preamble码字发送PRACH。
步骤S304,判断随机接入是否成功,若是则执行步骤S306,否则执行步骤S305。
步骤S305,如果发起的随机接入过程失败,则在确定的PRACH资源上再次发送PRACH,并判断在初始覆盖等级上发送PRACH的次数是否小于最大随机接入次数,若是则执行步骤S307,否则执行步骤S306。
例如,UE收到PDCCH order,获取初始覆盖等级为CEL1,并获取CEL1对应的PRACH资源,PRACH配置索引为9,即在每个无线帧的子帧1、4、7上发送Preamble码,这个配置下可用PRACH资源数NPRACH为3;PRACH起始子帧周期为4个子帧;PRACH频域起始PRB为PRB=0;Preamble码个数为12、范围为12-23;在CEL1上发起随机接入次数为min(3,20)=3次。
UE根据PDCCH order指示的PRACH Mask Index计算其使用的UE Mask Index=(PRACH Mask Index-1)mod NPRACH+1=(3-1)mod 3+1=3;根据36.321和36.211标准协议,在每个无线帧的子帧7上发送Preamble码。根据PRACH起始子帧周期为4个子帧,UE在满足
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000004
的子帧上发送Preamble码。这里,sf为无线帧号,ns为时隙号。UE根据PDCCH order中Preamble Index计算其使用的UE Mask Index=12+15 mod 12=15;UE在确定的子帧、PRB=0的PRACH资源上发送Preamble码字15。 如果发起的随机接入过程失败,且在CEL0上发起随机接入次数小于3,则在满足
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000005
的子帧、PRB=0的PRACH资源上再次发送Preamble码字15。
步骤S306,随机接入过程结束。
步骤S307,在初始覆盖等级上发送PRACH次数是否小于该覆盖等级的随机接入次数,若是指执行步骤S303,否则执行步骤S308。
步骤S308,如果在当前覆盖等级上发送PRACH的次数=max(NumPreambleAttemptCE-r13)(即当前覆盖的随机接入次数)、且当前覆盖等级上发送PRACH次数<num(RepetitionsPerPreambleAttempt-r13)(即最大随机接入次数),则将覆盖等级提高一个等级,重新执行步骤S303。
获取该等级对应的PRACH资源,包括时域位置、频域位置和Preamble码字。
UE根据当前覆盖等级获取PRACH资源组的时频资源信息、重复次数;UE根据Subcarrier indication of NPRACH和当前覆盖等级可用的PRACH子载波数目,计算其使用的PRACH子载波ID。
UE在新的覆盖等级计算其使用的PRACH UE Mask Index和Preamble ID,UE在确定的PRACH资源上发送PRACH。
例如,如果在CEL1上发起随机接入次数达到3次(还未达到总次数门限20次),那么UE将覆盖等级提升至CEL2,并获取该等级对应的PRACH资源:PRACH配置索引为6,即在每个无线帧的子帧1、6上发送Preamble码,这个配置下可用PRACH资源数Nprach为2;PRACH起始子帧周期为8个子帧;PRACH频域起始PRB为PRB=0;Preamble码个数为12、范围为24-35;在CEL2上发起随机接入次数为min(3,20-3)=3次。
UE根据PDCCH order指示的PRACH Mask Index计算其使用的UE Mask Index=(3-1)mod 2+1=1;根据36.321和36.211标准协议,即在每个无线帧的子帧1上发送Preamble码。根据PRACH起始子帧周期为8个子帧,UE在满足
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000006
的子帧上发送Preamble码。这里,sf为无线帧号,ns为时隙号。UE根据PDCCH order中Preamble Index计算其 使用的preamble index(即Preamble ID)为24+15 mod 12,即27。UE在确定的子帧、PRB=0的PRACH资源上发送Preamble码字27。重复上述步骤,直到随机接入成功,或者达到最大重复次数min(3+3+3,20)=9。
可选地,UE收到PDCCH order,获取初始覆盖等级为CEL1,并获取CEL1对应的PRACH资源:PRACH配置索引为9,即在每个无线帧的子帧1、4、7上发送Preamble码,这个配置下可用PRACH资源数Nprach为3;PRACH起始子帧周期为4个子帧;PRACH频域起始PRB为PRB=0;Preamble码个数为12、范围为12-23;在CEL1上发起随机接入次数为min(3,20)=3次。UE根据PDCCH order指示的PRACH Mask Index计算其使用的mask index:mask index=PRACH Mask Index mod Nprach+1=3 mod 3+1=1;根据36.321和36.211标准协议,mask Index=3,即在每个无线帧的子帧7上发送Preamble码。根据PRACH起始子帧周期为4个子帧,UE在满足
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000007
的子帧上发送Preamble码。这里,sf为无线帧号,ns为时隙号。
UE根据PDCCH order中Preamble Index计算其使用的preamble index:preamble index=12+Preamble Index mod 12=12+15 mod 12=15;UE在确定的子帧、PRB=0的PRACH资源上发送Preamble码字15。如果发起的随机接入过程失败,且在CEL0上发起随机接入次数小于3,则在满足
Figure PCTCN2017078184-appb-000008
的子帧、PRB=0的PRACH资源上再次发送Preamble码字15。
如果在CEL1上发起随机接入次数达到3次(还未达到总次数门限20次),那么UE将覆盖等级提升至CEL2,并获取该等级对应的PRACH资源:PRACH配置索引为6,即在每个无线帧的子帧1、6上发送Preamble码,这个配置下可用PRACH资源数NPRACH为2;PRACH起始子帧周期为8个子帧;PRACH频域起始PRB为PRB=0;Preamble码个数为12、范围为24-35;在CEL2上发起随机接入次数为min(3,20-3)=3次。
UE根据PDCCH order指示的PRACH Mask Index计算其使用的mask index=(PRACH Mask Index-1)mod NPRACH+1=(3-1)mod 2+1=1;根据36.321和36.211标准协议,mask Index=1,即在每个无线帧的子帧1上发送Preamble码。
根据PRACH起始子帧周期为8个子帧,UE在满足

步骤S406,随机接入过程结束。
步骤S407,在初始覆盖等级上发送PRACH次数是否小于该覆盖等级的随机接入次数,若是指执行步骤S403,否则执行步骤S408。
步骤S408,如果在当前覆盖等级上发送PRACH次数= maxNumPreambleAttemptCE-r13(当前覆盖的随机接入次数)、且当前覆盖等级上发送PRACH次数<numRepetitionsPerPreambleAttempt-r13(最大随机接入次数),则覆盖等级+1,并获取该等级对应的PRACH资源,包括时域位置、频域位置和重复次数;则将覆盖等级提高一个等级,重新执行步骤S403。
UE在新的覆盖等级上计算其使用的PRACH子载波ID。
