Description

一种随机接入方法、装置及系统 技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种随机接入方法、装置及系统。
背景技术
随着通信技术的发展,频率资源需求量越来越大,由于频谱资源有限,未来新的网络极大可能会工作在高频点上。新的网络具有高的容量及性能,终端接入高频网络可以为用户提供更优质的服务。
从信道衰落原理可知,衰落强度与频率成正比,高频信号容易衰落,绕射能力不如频率较低的信号,这就造成高频网络的频率越高,覆盖范围小。波束成形(beamforming)技术由于信号能量集中,被应用于增大高频网络的覆盖范围,使得位于高频网络边缘的终端可以接入高频网络享受高频网络优质的服务。
目前,采用波束成形的方式扩大高频网络的覆盖范围的方案为:终端优先随机接入高频网络,与高频网络的接入设备建立无线资源控制(英文全称:Radio Resource Control,RRC)连接;然后向高频网络的接入设备发送信道探测信号(英文全称:Sounding Reference Signal,SRS),接入设备根据上下行信道的对称性,估算出终端与接入设备间的确定的最佳beam,之后终端与接入设备间以beamforming的方式做数据的传输。
由上述终端随机接入高频网络的过程可知,终端需要先与接入设备建立连接,再通过交互后接入波束(beam),导致终端接入beam不及时,从而造成终端接入高频网络的成功率低。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供一种随机接入方法、装置及系统,实现终端及时接入beam,以提高终端接入网络的成功率。
为达到上述目的,本发明的实施例采用如下技术方案:
第一方面,提供一种随机接入方法,具体包括:终端接收第一接入设备由波束成形方式生成的多个波束上的多个信号,再确定多个波束中信号最强的波束;并根据配置信息生成信号最强的波束的前导信号;终端向第一接入设备发送生成的前导信号。
这样一来,终端在接入第一接入设备前,即在终端的初始接入阶段,已经确定了信号最强的波束作为接入第一接入设备的波束,并且向第一接入设备发送了确定的信号最强的波束的前导信号,第一接入设备则可以根据接收到前导信号识别出终端确定的信号最强的波束,通过该波束与终端建立连接完成终端的随机接入。在该过程中,终端及时的接入第一接入设备的波束,提高了终端接入第一接入设备的成功率。
可选的,配置信息可以包括信号最强的波束的波束配置;或者,配置信息可以包括小区配置和信号最强的波束的标识;或者,配置信息可以包括信号最强的波束的波束配置和信号最强的波束的标识。
其中,信号最强的波束的波束配置包括第一接入设备为该信号最强的波束分配的至少一个前导序列码及发送前导信号的时频资源信息。时频资源信息用于指示发送前导信号时占用的时频资源。小区配置包括网络为第一接入设备提供的网络分配的至少一个前导序列码及发送前导信号的时频资源信息。波束的标识用于指示唯一的波束。
其中,一个波束的前导信号可以唯一的确定出该波束。
可选的,在生成一个波束的前导信号时,可以通过在该波束的波束配置中竞争选择前导序列码作为前导信号,并在该波束的波束配置中竞争选择时频资源发送前导信号。这样一来,接收方根据波束配置,即可通过前导信号的内容及发送前导信号占用的时频资源唯一的确定出该波束。
可选的,在生成一个波束的前导信号时,可以通过在该波束的前导信号中携带该波束的标识,接收方即可通过前导信号中携带的 波束标识唯一的确定出该波束。
进一步的,当第一接入设备提供的网络为高频网络时,本申请的方案则实现了终端及时接入高频网络,提高了终端接入高频网络的成功率。
结合第一方面,在一种可能的实现方式中,为了提高方案的可实现性,配置信息可以包括信号最强的波束的波束配置,终端接收第一接入设备的多个波束上的多个信号,具体可以实现为:终端接收信号最强的波束上的广播信号;广播信号用于广播信号最强的波束波束配置。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,当配置信息包括信号最强的波束的波束配置时,所述方法还可以包括终端从第二接入设备接收信号最强的波束的波束配置。也就是说,由第二接入设备辅助第一接入设备广播信号最强的波束的波束配置。
具体的,终端处于第二接入设备提供的网络的覆盖范围内。
进一步的,若第二接入设备提供的网络和第一接入设备提供的网络共站,则第二接入设备可以直接获取第一接入设备配置的每个波束的波束配置进行广播;若第二接入设备提供的网络和第一接入设备提供的网络非共站,则第二接入设备可以与第一接入设备通过X2口信息交互,获取配置的每个波束的波束配置进行广播。
结合第一方面或上述任一种可能的实现方式,在另一种可能的实现方式中,当配置信息为信号最强的波束的波束配置时,终端根据配置信息生成信号最强的波束的前导信号,具体可以实现为:终端先获取信号最强的波束的波束配置中的前导序列码及发送随机接入前导序列的时频资源信息;然后竞争选择一个前导序列码作为随机接入前导序列;竞争获取一个时频资源作为随机接入时频资源,并在竞争获取的随机接入时频资源上向第一接入设备发送选择的随机接入前导序列作为前导信号。这样一来,在第一接入设备接收到前导信号时,则可以根据前导信号的内容及占用的时频资源查找每个波束波束配置,就能唯一确定终端确定的信号最强的波束,即唯 一的确定除了终端选择接入第一接入设备提供的网络的波束。
结合第一方面或上述任一种可能的实现方式,在另一种可能的实现方式中,终端接收第一接入设备的多个波束上的多个信号具体还可以实现为:在终端接收信号最强的波束上的广播信号的基础上,终端接收信号最强的波束上的同步信号。
需要说明的是,当第一接入设备的多个波束上的多个信号包括广播信号和同步信号时,终端可以确定广播信号或者同步信号中任一个信号最强的波束,作为多个波束中信号最强的波束。
结合第一方面或上述任一种可能的实现方式,在另一种可能的实现方式中,配置信息可以包括小区配置及信号最强的波束的标识,或者,配置信息包括信号最强的波束的波束配置及信号最强的波束的标识。终端接收第一接入设备的多个波束上的多个信号,具体可以实现为:终端接收信号最强的波束上的同步信号或者广播信号;信号最强的波束上的同步信号或者广播信号携带最强的波束的标识。

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、完整地描述,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作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。
另外,本文中术语“系统”和“网络”在本文中常被可互换使用。本文中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本文中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
在目前的随机接入过程中,接入设备以常规方式发送同步信号,用于终端发现网络进行接入,仅在终端进行数据传输时以beamforming方式与终端通信,以扩大系统容量,但在终端的接入阶段,由于高频网络的覆盖范围小,目前的随机接入过程未及时接入beamforming生成的波束,造成终端接入高频网络的成功率不高。
基于此,本发明的基本原理是:接入设备在以beamforming方式生成的多个波束上向终端发送多个信号,终端根据这些信号的强度确定信号最强的波束,并根据信号最强的波束向接入设备发送前导信号,使得接入设备根据接收的前导信号即可唯一且准确的识别出终端确定的信号最强的波束。由于在接入前即确定了信号最强的波束,及时的接入了波束,大大提高了终端随机接入网络的成功率。

进一步的,图3示出的是与本发明各实施例相关的一种第一接入设备30的结构示意图,该第一接入设备30可以为图1中任一接入设备(第一接入设备)的部分或全部。
如图3所示,该第一接入设备30可以包括:处理器301、存储器302、收发器303。
下面结合图3对第一接入设备30的各个构成部件进行具体的介绍:
存储器302,可以是volatile memory,例如RAM;或者non-volatile memory,例如ROM,flash memory,HDD或SSD;或者上述种类的存储器的组合,用于存储可实现本发明方法的相关应用程序、以及配置文件。

本发明实施例以终端与第一接入设备或第一接入设备及第二接入设备的交互过程为例,对本发明实施例提供一种随机接入方法进行详细描述。如图5所示,本发明实施例提供一种随机接入方法可以包括:
S501、第一接入设备在多个波束上向终端发送多个信号。
其中,多个波束是由波束成形方式生成的,用于扩大第一接入设备提供的网络的覆盖范围。
可选的,第一接入设备在多个波束上向终端发送的多个信号,可以包括同步信号,或者,广播信号,或者同步信号和广播信号。
进一步可选的,第一接入设备在多个波束上向终端发送多个信号时,还可以向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置。第一接入设备的波束配置用于终端生成向第一接入设备发送的前导信号。
其中,第一接入设备的波束配置由第一接入设备预先配置,第一接入设备的波束配置包括第一接入设备为其每个波束分配的至少一个前导序列码及发送前导信号所用的时频资源指示信息。
可选的,可以通过广播信号广播第一接入设备的波束配置,或者,通过第二接入设备向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置。
其中,终端处于第二接入设备提供的网络的覆盖范围内。
进一步的,若第二接入设备提供的网络和第一接入设备提供的网络共站,则第二接入设备可以直接获取第一接入设备配置的每个波束的波束配置进行广播;若第二接入设备提供的网络和第一接入设备提供的网络非共站,则第二接入设备可以与第一接入设备通过X2口信息交互,获取配置的每个波束的波束配置进行广播。
示例性的,假设第一接入设备以beamforming方式生成了8个beam;对这8个beam,第一接入设备配置的第一接入设备的波束配 置的具体内容包括:beam0配置前导序列码(preamble)0~7,beam1配置preamble8~15,……,beam7配置preamble56~63;分配的时频资源信息指示:为beam0分配时频资源0~2,为beam1分配时频资源3~5,……,为beam7分配时频资源21~23。该第一接入设备的波束配置可以以表1的形式存储及发送。

3 24~31 9~11
4 32~39 12~14
5 40~47 15~17
6 48~55 18~20
7 56~63 21~23
需要说明的是,表1只是以示例的形式,对第一接入设备的波束配置进行举例说明,并不是对第一接入设备的波束配置的形式及内容的具体限定。在实际应用中,可以根据实际需求设定第一接入设备的波束配置的内容及形式。
进一步可选的,第一接入设备在多个波束上向终端发送多个信号时,还可以携带在每个波束中携带各自的波束标识。
其中,波束标识可以用来唯一指示一个波束。
可选的,本发明实施例所述的波束标识可以包括但不限于下述两种形式:
第一形式:显式的波束标识。
其中,显式的波束标识是用来明确指示波束的标识信息,显式的波束标识可以直接携带在波束中,接收方则可以直接提取。
示例性的,第一接入设备可以在beamforming的方式生成的各个波束中发送多个信号时,在每个波束上发送的信号中分别携带每 个波束各自的标识,这种提供波束标识的形式则为上述的第一形式所述的显式的波束标识。
第二形式:隐式的波束标识。
其中,隐式的波束标识是用来确定波束标识的指示信息,通过隐式的波束标识可以计算得到波束标识。
示例性的,第一接入设备在beamforming的方式生成的多个波束上发送下行同步信号时,通过PSS/SSS则可以隐含的通知终端每个波束的标识。接收方根据PSS/SSS则可以唯一确定一个波束,即获取到了波束的标识。
具体的,若beam的PCI都不同,接收方可以通过PSS/SSS唯一对应的PCI来识别不同的beam。若beam的PCI相同,接收方可类似的使用扩展的PSS/SSS来识别不同的beam。
其中,PSS是主同步信道(英文全称:primary synchronous channel,P-SCH)中传播的序列,共3种可能性;SSS是辅同步信道(英文全称:Secondary synchronous channel,S-SCH)中传播的序列,共168种可能性;两个序列的序号组合,即可获取到beam的ID。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例对于根据PSS/SSS两个序列的组合获取beam ID的过程,不再进行赘述。
具体的,第一接入设备在多个波束上向终端发送多个信号的内容可以有多种实现方式,具体可以包括但不限于下述五种方案:
方案1、

其中,在方案5中,第一接入设备还可以向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置或者小区配置。
其中,小区配置为向第一接入设备提供的网络分配的至少一个前导序列码及发送前导信号的时频资源信息。时频资源信息用于指示至少一个时频资源。
可选的,在方案5中,第一接入设备还可以向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置或者小区配置,可以包括:第一接入设备直接向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置或者小区配置,或者,第一接入设备通过第二接入设备向终端发送第一接入设备的波束配置或者小区配置。
需要说明的是,小区配置也可以预先配置在终端中,方案5中则无法再向终端发送小区配置。
还需要说明的是,上述5种方案仅是通过列举的方式,对S501的实现方案进行说明,并不是对实现S501的过程的具体限定。在实际应用中,S501还可以有其他实现方式,本发明实施例对此不进行具体限定。
S502、终端接收第一接入设备的多个波束上的多个信号。
需要说明的是,S502中终端接收的信号即为S501中第一接入 设备发送的信号,对于多个波束上的多个信号的内容,已经在S501中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。
S503、终端确定多个波束中信号最强的波束。
S504、终端根据配置信息生成信号最强的波束的前导信号。
其中,一个波束的前导信号可以唯一的确定出该波束。
可选的,在生成一个波束的前导信号时,可以通过在该波束的波束配置中竞争选择前导序列码作为前导信号,并在该波束的波束配置中竞争选择时频资源发送前导信号。这样一来,接收端根据波束配置,即可通过前导信号的内容及发送前导信号占用的时频资源唯一的确定出该波束。
可选的,在生成一个波束的前导信号时,可以通过在该波束的前导信号中携带该波束的标识,接收方即可通过前导信号中携带的波束标识唯一的确定出该波束。
需要说明的是,在生成一个波束的前导信号时,对于如何配置一个波束的前导信号,使得该波束的前导信号可以唯一的确定出该波束,可以根据实际需求确定,本发明实施例对此不进行具体限定。
其中,配置信息可以包括信号最强的波束的波束配置;或者,配置信息可以包括小区配置及所述信号最强的波束的标识;或者,配置信息包括所述信号最强的波束的波束配置及所述信号最强的波束的标识。
具体的,配置信息的具体内容,取决于第一接入设备向终端发送的内容。当第一接入设备仅向终端发送了第一接入设备的波束配置,那么配置信息包括信号最强的波束的波束配置。当第一接入设备仅向终端发送了第一接入设备的波束配置及每个波束的标识,那么配置信息包括信号最强的波束的波束配置及信号最强的波束的标识。当第一接入设备仅向终端发送了小区配置及每个波束的标识,那么配置信息包括小区配置及信号最强的波束的标识。
具体的,根据配置信息的内容的不同,S504中终端根据配置信息生成信号最强的波束的前导信号的方案包括且不限于下述两种方 案。
第一方案、配置信息包括信号最强的波束的波束配置。
在第一方案中,终端执行S504的过程具体可以包括:
终端在信号最强的波束的波束配置包括的至少一个前导序列码中,竞争选择一个前导序列码作为前导信号。
示例性的,假设第一接入设备的波束配置如表1所示,终端确定beam3为信号最强的beam,即确定接入第一接入设备的最佳beam为beam3,那么,终端在执行S504时,先获取表1所示的第一接入设备的波束配置中确定的beam3的波束配置中的前导序列码为preamble24~31;然后在preamble24~31中竞争选择一个preamble(假设选择preamble26)作为前导信号。
第二方案、配置信息包括小区配置。
在第二方案中,终端执行S504的过程具体可以包括:
终端在小区配置包括的至少一个前导序列码中,竞争选择一个前导序列码作为前导信号。

具体的,根据配置信息的内容的不同,S505中终端向第一接入设备发送信号最强的前导信号的方案包括且不限于下述两种方案。
方案A、配置信息不包括信号最强的波束的标识。
在方案A中,对应于S504中的第一方案,终端向第一接入设备发送前导信号的方案可以实现为:
终端在信号最强的波束的波束配置包括时频资源指示信息指示的至少一个时频资源中,竞争选择一个时频资源,并在选择的时频资源上向第一接入设备发送生成的前导信号。
示例性的,对应于S504中的第一方案中的示例,假设第一接入设备分配的beam识别信息如表1所示,终端在beam3的波束配置中包括的时频资源信息指示的时频资源9~11中,竞争获取一个时频资源(假设竞争获取到时频资源10),在时频资源10上,向第一接入设备发送preamble26。
在方案A中,对应于S504中的第二方案,终端向第一接入设备发送前导信号的方案可以实现为:
终端在小区配置包括时频资源指示信息指示的至少一个时频资源中,竞争选择一个时频资源,并在选择的时频资源上向第一接入设备发送生成的前导信号。
方案B、配置信息包括信号最强的波束的标识。
在方案B中,对应于S504中的第一方案,终端向第一接入设备发送前导信号的方案可以实现为:
终端在信号最强的波束的波束配置包括时频资源指示信息指示的至少一个时频资源中,竞争选择一个时频资源,并在选择的时频资源上向第一接入设备发送生成的前导信号,前导信号携带信号最强的波束的标识。
在方案B中,对应于S504中的第二方案,终端向第一接入设备发送前导信号的方案可以实现为:
终端在小区配置包括时频资源指示信息指示的至少一个时频资源中,竞争选择一个时频资源,并在选择的时频资源上向第一接入设备发送生成的前导信号,前导信号携带信号最强的波束的标识。
示例性的,假设第一接入设备的波束配置如表1所示,终端确定信号最强的beam3为接入第一接入设备提供的网络的最佳beam,并获取到beam3中的beam ID为ID3;那么,终端在执行S504时,先在表1所示的beam3的波束配置中的前导序列码preamble24~31中竞争选择一个preamble(假设选择preamble26)作为前导信号,然后在表1所示的beam3的波束配置中的时频资源信息指示时频资源9~11中竞争获取一个时频资源(假设竞争获取到时频资源10),那么,终端在时频资源10上,向第一接入设备发送preamble26,并携带ID3。
S506、第一接入设备接收终端发送的信号最强的波束的前导信号。
需要说明的是,S506中第一接入设备接收的前导信号,即S505 中终端发送的前导信号,此处不再进行赘述。
S507、第一接入设备根据接收的前导信号,识别终端选择接入第一接入设备提供的网络的波束建立与终端之间的RRC连接。
其中,一个波束的前导信号可以唯一的确定出该波束。
与S504中生成一个波束的前导信号相对应,可选的,在S506中,第一接入设备接收到一个波束的前导信号时,可以根据波束配置,即可通过前导信号的内容及发送前导信号占用的时频资源唯一的确定出该波束。或者,第一接入设备可以通过前导信号中携带的波束标识唯一的确定出该波束。
可选的,根据S505中终端发送前导信号的方案不同,第一接入设备在S507中根据前导信号,识别终端接入第一接入设备提供的网络的波束的方法也不同。具体可以包括下述两种实现方式:
第一种实现方式、对应S505中的方案A,配置信息不包括信号最强的波束的标识,终端发送的前导信号不携带终端确定的信号最强的波束的标识,第一接入设备执行S507的过程具体可以包括:
