为了进一步提升MIMO技术，移动通信系统中引入大规模天线技术。对于基站，全数字化的大规模天线可以有高达128/256/512个天线振子，以及高达128/256/512个收发单元，每个天线振子连接一个收发单元。通过发送高达128/256/512个天线端口的导频信号，使得终端测量信道状态信息并反馈。对于终端，也可以配置高达32/64个天线振子的天线阵列。通过基站和终端两侧的波束赋形，获得巨大的波束赋形增益，以弥补路径损耗带来的信号衰减。尤其是在高频段通信，例如30GHz频点上，路径损耗使得无线信号的覆盖范围极其有限。通过大规模天线技术，可以将无线信号的覆盖范围扩大到可以实用的范围内。
现有技术中的大规模天线技术主要采用一种数字模拟混合波束赋形收发架构方案，如 图1所示。模拟波束赋形和数模混合波束赋形都需要调整收发两端的模拟波束赋形权值，以使得其所形成的波束能对准通信的对端。对于下行传输，需要调整基站侧发送的波束赋形权值和终端侧接收的波束赋形权值，而对于上行传输，需要调整终端侧发送的和基站侧接收的波束赋形权值。波束赋形的权值通常通过发送训练信号获得。下行方向，基站发送下行波束训练信号，终端测量下行波束训练信号，选择出最佳的基站发送波束，并将波束相关的信息反馈给基站，同时选择出对应的最佳接收波束，保存在本地。上行方向，终端发送上行波束训练信号，基站测量上行波束训练信号，选择出最佳的终端发送波束，将波束相关的信息传递给终端，同时选择出对应的最佳接收波束，保存在本地。上下行的收发波束训练好之后即可以进行数据传输。
在进行数据传输之前，为了让接收端能合理的设置接收波束，发送端需要将发送波束相关的信息传递给接收端。而对于下行传输，通常发送端(基站)的天线阵列规模较大，波束的数量较大，发送波束相关信息的传递会带来大量的控制信令的开销。
因此，如何降低波束管理控制信令的开销是目前大规模天线技术亟待解决的问题。

具体实施方式
为了使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合附图对本申请作进一步地详细描述，显然，所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例，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它实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
实施例一
本申请实施例中，如图2所示，终端进行波束管理的具体过程如下：
步骤101：终端向基站发送所述终端的下行波束的相关信息，以使所述基站基于所述下行波束的相关信息确定第一下行发送波束。
本申请实施例中，步骤101的具体实现方式如下：
所述终端基于M个下行接收波束中的至少一个下行接收波束接收由所述基站发送的K个下行发送波束训练信号；
所述终端基于由所述至少一个下行接收波束接收到的接收信号，确定所述终端的下行 波束的相关信息；
所述终端向所述基站发送所述下行波束的相关信息；
其中，M、K为大于等于1的整数，且K大于等于M。
具体来讲，终端首先向基站上报自身的接收波束的数量M。终端共有M个接收波束，其中，每个接收波束对应一组波束赋形权值，如，第n个波束的接收波束赋形权值为
Figure PCTCN2017095291-appb-000001
其中L是波束赋形的天线振子数，可以小于终端的天线振子数，每个接收波束对应一个空间方向。
当基站接收到终端上报的接收波束的数量后，终端会接收到由基站发送下行波束训练信号。基站共有K个候选的下行发送波束，每个下行波束对应一组波束赋形权值，如，第n个波束的发送波束赋形权值为
Figure PCTCN2017095291-appb-000002
其中k是波束赋形的天线振子数，可以小于基站的天线振子数。
基站可以为每个候选的下行发送波束发射一个波束训练信号，每个波束的波束训练信号用该波束对应的波束赋形权值赋形之后发出。例如对于K个下行发送波束，基站可以发送K个训练信号，这K个训练信号之间可以时分复用(Time Division Multiplexing，TDM)、频分复用(Frequency Division Multiplexing，FDM)、码分复用(Code Division Multiplexing，CDM)，或者各种复用方式的组合。例如，在以OFDM为基础的系统中，K个训练信号可以占用K个OFDM符号，每个训练信号占用1个OFDM符号，训练信号之间为TDM复用；也可以在一个OFDM符号中发射多个波束的训练信号，它们之间是FDM复用，或者CDM复用。波束训练信号可以周期性发送，也可以非周期性发送，在本申请实施例中不作限制。
终端可以采用M个接收波束中的一个或多个接收到基站发送的下行波束训练信号，然后对接收到的波束训练信号进行测量，进而确定出满足条件的N个下行发送波束。所述条件具体可以是接收到的波束训练信号的功率最强，或者是接收到的波束训练信号的功率值大于一个预设阈值，所述预设阈值可以是基站和终端实现约定，例如在协议中约定，或者基站通过信令配置给终端。当然，也可以与接收到的波束训练信号的信干噪比、信噪比等参数相关的条件，在本申请实施例中不作限制。当然，所述条件也可以是与所述基站对应的所有下行发送波束，此时，N等于K，即N个下行发送波束即为基站的所有下行发送波束。
终端确定出N个下行发送波束后，需要确定与N个下行发送波束中每个下行发送波束对应的接收波束。具体地，对于一个下行波束训练信号，终端可以分别尝试使用每个接收波束对其进行接收，选择接收信号功率最强的接收波束作为该下行发送波束的接收波束。 当然，也可以通过接收信号的信干噪比、信噪比等参数进行判断，在本申请实施例中不作限制。
当终端确定出N个下行发送波束及对应的接收波束后，终端将向基站反馈N个下行发送波束及对应的接收信息。
本申请实施例中，所述下行波束的相关信息具体为：
所述基站的K个下行发送波束中满足预设条件的N个下行发送波束的N个第一标识信息以及所述N个下行发送波束中的每个下行发送波束对应的接收信息，其中，N为大于等于1且小于等于K的整数。
在本申请实施例中，所述接收信息具体为：
所述每个下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束的标识信息；或
所述每个下行发送波束对应的接收指示信息。
具体来讲，终端可以将N个下行发送波束的标识信息以及每个下行发送波束对应的接收波束的标识信息发送至基站；也可以将N个下行发送波束的标识信息及与每个下行发送波束对应的接收指示信息发送至基站。所述N个下行发送波束的标识信息可以是其编号，也可以根据下行发送波束或者下行发送波束训练信号的复用方式不同，反馈不同的信息，如，下行波束赋形信号在不同OFDM symbol或者subframe时分复用，终端测量并反馈确定出的N个下行发送波束的下行时间信息(OFDM symbol或者subframe index)。再例如，下行波束赋形信号在不同频率资源(PRB，subband)复用，终端测量并反馈确定出的N个下行发送波束的下行频率信息(PRB or subband index)。还可以进一步包括终端收到的下行发送波束训练信号强度信息，例如接收信号功率水平等。所述接收波束的标识信息的取值范围为0～M。
如，终端向基站上报了3个下行发送波束x0,x1,x2与其对应的接收波束y0，y1，y2之间的对应关系，如表1所示。

并且，终端保存每个上报的下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束和该下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束标识之间的映射关系。
或者，终端向基站上报接收信号功率大于一定门限值的下行发送波束的标识以及其对应的接收波束的标识信息。如表3所示。
表3

下行接收波束和接收指示信息之间存在映射关系，终端保存下行接收波束和接收指示信息之间的映射关系。

具体来讲，当终端向基站上报上述信息之后，基站便会根据终端上报的信息确定出与终端进行下行信号传输的下行发送波束，并向终端发送包含有确定相应的接收波束的指示 信息的通知信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述指示信息为所述至少一个第一下行接收波束的至少一个编号信息或所述至少一个第一下行接收波束的至少一个标识信息或与所述第一下行发送波束对应的第一接收指示信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述通知信息还包括所述通知信息的生效时间或用于指示所述至少一个第一下行接收波束对应的时频资源位置的有效时频资源指示信息或预设时间段内所述至少一个第一接收波束与时频资源位置的映射关系。
具体来讲，消息的生效时间是收到消息的时间+时间间隔(时间间隔可以是0，即立即生效)，时间间隔是固定的，或者在消息中携带时间间隔信息。或者，波束切换通知消息中还可以包括有效时频资源的指示信息，即指示终端应用目标波束的时频资源位置，例如，指示终端在哪些子帧(哪些PRB/子带)中应用该目标接收波束进行接收。
由于接收波束可以是多个，此时，终端则需要按照一定的规则将多个接收波束用在不同的时频资源上。例如，T个波束用在T个子帧(或者OFDM符号，或者其他的时间单位)内，每个子帧内用一个波束进行接收，以T个子帧为周期进行循环。在一个子帧内的不同的频域资源也可以用不同的波束进行接收。相应地，基站发送的波束切换通知消息中还可以包括一段时间内波束与时频资源的映射关系，即波束图样信息。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤103，即：所述终端基于所述通知信息，确定所述至少一个第一下行接收波束。
在本申请实施例中，步骤103的具体实现方式如下：
基于所述至少一个编号信息确定所述至少一个第一下行接收波束；或
基于所述第一接收指示信息确定所述至少一个第一下行接收波束；或
基于所述至少一个标识信息及标识信息与下行接收波束的对应关系，确定所述至少一个第一下行接收波束；或
基于所述至少一个编号信息或所述至少一个标识信息确定至少一个第二下行接收波束；从所述M个下行接收波束中确定与所述至少一个第二下行接收波束相匹配的至少一个接收波束为所述至少一个第一下行接收波束。
具体来讲，终端可以在通知信息生效后，则根据通知信息中的编号信息直接确定出对应的接收波束；或者根据通知信息中的标识信息以及终端中存储的标识信息与接收波束的一一对应关系，确定出与标识信息对应的波束即为第一接收波束；或者，首先根据编号信息或者标识信息确定出对应的下行接收波束，然后在该下行接收波束“附近”进行接收波束的搜索，寻找更优的接收波束为第一接收波束。其中，一个波束在另外一个波束的“附近” 可以通过相关性进行判断，例如波束赋形权值相关性门限高于一定值的波束，或者通过空间角度差进行判断，例如空间角度差小于一定门限值的波束；或者基于第一接收指示信息以及终端中存储的接收指示信息与接收波束的映射关系，确定所述接收指示信息对应的下行接收波束为第一下行接收波束。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤104，即：所述终端基于所述至少一个第一下行接收波束接收下行信号。
具体来讲，当终端和基站确定好下行发送波束和下行接收波束之后，便可以进行下行信号传输。
实施例二
本申请实施例中，如图2所示，终端进行波束管理的具体过程如下：
步骤101：终端向基站发送所述终端的下行波束的相关信息，以使所述基站基于所述下行波束的相关信息确定第一下行发送波束。
本申请实施例中，步骤101的具体实现方式如下：
所述终端基于M个下行接收波束中的至少一个下行接收波束接收由所述基站发送的K个下行发送波束训练信号；
所述终端基于由所述至少一个下行接收波束接收到的接收信号，确定所述终端的下行波束的相关信息；
所述终端向所述基站发送所述下行波束的相关信息；
其中，M、K为大于等于1的整数，且K大于等于M。
具体来讲，终端首先要对自身的M个接收波束进行分组，例如按照波束之间的相关性进行分组，相关性高于一定门限的分为一组；或者按照波束的空间指向进行分组，空间指向在一定范围内的分为一组，然后向基站上报自身的接收波束组的数量。
当基站接收到终端上报的接收波束组的数量后，终端会接收到由基站发送下行波束训练信号。其中，下行发送波束训练信号的发送方式及相关参数与实施例一中相应的描述相同，在此就不再赘述。
终端可以采用多个接收波束组中的一组或多组波束接收到基站发送的下行波束训练信号，然后对接收到的波束训练信号进行测量，进而确定出满足条件的N个下行发送波束。所述条件具体可以是波束组接收到的波束训练信号的功率最强，或者是波束组接收到的波束训练信号的功率值大于一个预设阈值，所述预设阈值可以是基站和终端实现约定，例如在协议中约定，或者基站通过信令配置给终端。当然，也可以与波束组接收到的波束训练信号的信干噪比、信噪比等参数相关的条件，在本申请实施例中不作限制。当然，所述条 件也可以是与所述基站对应的所有下行发送波束，此时，N等于K，即N个下行发送波束即为基站的所有下行发送波束。
终端确定出N个下行发送波束后，需要确定与N个下行发送波束中每个下行发送波束对应的接收波束组。具体地，对于一个下行波束训练信号，终端可以分别尝试使用每组接收波束对其进行接收，选择接收信号功率最强的接收波束组作为该下行发送波束的接收波束组。当然，也可以通过接收信号的信干噪比、信噪比等参数进行判断，在本申请实施例中不作限制。
当终端确定出N个下行发送波束及对应的接收波束组后，终端将向基站反馈N个下行发送波束及对应的接收波束组的相关信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述下行波束的相关信息具体为：
所述基站的K个下行发送波束中满足预设条件的N个下行发送波束的N个第一标识信息以及所述N个下行发送波束中的每个下行发送波束对应的接收信息，其中，N为大于等于1且小于等于K的整数。
在本申请实施例中，所述接收信息具体为：
所述每个下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束的分组信息。
具体来讲，终端将N个下行发送波束的标识信息以及每个下行发送波束对应的接收波束组的标识信息发送至基站。所述N个下行发送波束的标识信息与实施例一中相应的描述相同，在此就不再赘述。以终端共有S组接收波束为例，接收波束组的标识信息的取值范围为0～S。
如，终端向基站上报了3个下行发送波束x0,x1,x2与其对应的接收波束组z0,z1,z2之间的对应关系，如表5所示。
表5
下行发送波束标识 下行接收波束组标识
X0 Z0
X1 Z1
X2 Z2
或者，终端向基站上报每个下行发送波束对应的接收波束的标识信息；或者，终端向基站上报接收信号功率大于一定门限值的下行发送波束的标识以及其对应的接收波束的标识信息。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤102，即：所述终端接收所述基站发送的与所述第一下行发送波束相关的通知信息，其中，所述通知信息包括所 述终端用于确定至少一个第一下行接收波束的指示信息。
具体来讲，当终端向基站上报上述信息之后，基站便会根据终端上报的信息确定出与终端进行下行信号传输的下行发送波束，并向终端发送包含有确定相应的接收波束的指示信息的通知信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述指示信息为所述至少一个第一下行接收波束所在至少一个组别的至少一个分组标识信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述通知信息还包括所述通知信息的生效时间或用于指示所述至少一个第一下行接收波束对应的时频资源位置的有效时频资源指示信息或预设时间段内所述至少一个第一接收波束与时频资源位置的映射关系。
具体来讲，所述通知信息中的内容与实施例一中相应的描述相同，在此就不再赘述。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤103，即：所述终端基于所述通知信息，确定所述至少一个第一下行接收波束。
在本申请实施例中，步骤103的具体实现方式如下：
基于所述至少一个分组标识信息确定至少一个目标组别；从所述至少一个目标组别的每个组别中选择一个第一下行接收波束，作为所述至少一个第一下行接收波束。
在本申请实施例中，所述从所述至少一个目标组别的每个组别中选择一个第一下行接收波束，包括：
所述终端从所述每个组别中选择任意一个下行接收波束作为所述第一下行接收波束；或
所述终端从所述每个组别中选择与第二分组信息相匹配的下行接收波束作为所述第一下行接收波束；或
所述终端基于所述每个组别中的每个下行接收波束接收由所述基站发送的R个训练信号，所述终端基于由所述每个下行接收波束接收到的接收训练信号，从所述每个组别中选择满足预设规则的下行接收波束作为所述第一下行接收波束。
具体来讲，当终端接收到通知信息后，需要在目标接收波束组选择一个波束进行数据和信号的接收。选择的方式可以有：
a)随机选择；
b)根据先前的测量结果进行选择。例如终端保存了先前上报的N下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束，如果其中的某一个下行接收波束属于目标接收波束组，则终端可以选择该接收波束进行接收。
c)基于基站发送的训练信号进行选择。基站发送若干训练信号，终端分别用目标接收 波束组中的每个波束对训练信号进行接收，按照一定的准则选择下行接收波束，例如选择接收信号功率最大的接收波束。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤104，即：所述终端基于所述至少一个第一下行接收波束接收下行信号。
具体来讲，当终端和基站确定好下行发送波束和下行接收波束之后，便可以进行下行信号传输。
实施例三
基于同一发明构思，本申请实施例中，如图3所示，基站进行波束管理的具体过程如下：
步骤201：基站接收终端发送的下行波束的相关信息。
本申请实施例中，在步骤201之前，所述方法还包括：
所述基站向所述终端发送K个下行发送波束训练信号，其中，K为大于等于1的整数。
具体来讲，基站首先会接收到终端上报的自身接收波束的相关信息，如终端的接收波束的个数或者终端的接收波束组的个数。然后，基站便基于接收到的终端的自身接收波束信息，发送下行发送波束训练信号。其中，基站发送下行发送波束训练信号的方式与实施例一中相应的描述相同，在此就不在赘述。
终端可以采用两种方式对下行发送波束训练信号进行接收：
第一种方式：采用M个接收波束中的一个或多个接收到基站发送的下行波束训练信号，然后对接收到的波束训练信号进行测量，进而确定出满足条件的N个下行发送波束。
在此情况下，所述下行波束的相关信息具体为：
所述基站的K个下行发送波束中满足预设条件的N个下行发送波束的N个第一标识信息以及所述N个下行发送波束中的每个下行发送波束对应的接收信息，其中，N为大于等于1且小于等于K的整数。
此时，所述接收信息具体为：
所述每个下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束的标识信息；或
所述每个下行发送波束对应的接收指示信息。
具体实现方式请参照实施例一，在此就不再赘述。
第二种方式：终端首先将自身的接收波束进行分组，然后采用接收波束组中的一组或多组接收基站发送的下行发送波束训练信号，然后对各组接收到的波束训练信号进行测量，进而确定出满足条件的N个下行发送波束。
在此情况下，所述下行波束的相关信息具体为：
所述基站的K个下行发送波束中满足预设条件的N个下行发送波束的N个第一标识信息以及所述N个下行发送波束中的每个下行发送波束对应的接收信息，其中，N为大于等于1且小于等于K的整数。
此时，所述接收信息具体为：
所述每个下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束的分组信息。
具体实现方式请参照实施例二，在此就不再赘述。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤202，即：所述基站基于所述下行波束的相关信息，确定第一下行发送波束。
具体来讲，当基站接收到终端的上报信息之后，基站便会根据终端上报的信息确定出与终端进行下行信号传输的下行发送波束。如，从终端确定出的N个下行发送波束中选择其中一个或者多个作为第一下行发送波束，或者选择任意一个下行发送波束作为第一下行发送波束，在申请实施例中不作限制。
在执行完成步骤202之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤203，即：所述基站向所述终端发送与所述第一下行发送波束相关的通知信息，以使所述终端基于所述通知信息确定至少一个第一下行接收波束，其中，所述通知信息包括所述终端用于确定至少一个第一下行接收波束的指示信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述指示信息为所述至少一个第一下行接收波束的至少一个编号信息或所述至少一个第一下行接收波束的至少一个标识信息或所述至少一个第一下行接收波束所在至少一个组别的至少一个分组标识信息或与所述第一下行发送波束对应的第一接收指示信息。
所述通知信息还包括所述通知信息的生效时间或用于指示所述至少一个第一下行接收波束对应的时频资源位置的有效时频资源指示信息或预设时间段内所述至少一个第一接收波束与时频资源位置的映射关系。
具体来讲，根据终端上报的信息不同，基站发送的通知信息内容也不相同。当终端上报的信息为下行发送波束对应的接收波束的标识信息时，基站则向终端发送接收波束对应的编号或者标识信息；当终端上报的信息为下行发送波束对应的接收波束组的波束组标识信息时，基站则向终端发送接收波束对应的分组标识信息；当终端上报的信息为下行发送波束对应的接收指示信息时，基站则向终端发送接收波束的接收指示信息。所述通知信息与实施例一中相应的描述相同，在此就不再赘述。
在本申请实施例中，步骤203的具体实现方式有如下两种：
第一种，当基站确定出进行下行信号传输的下行发送波束后，则直接将与下行发送波 束相关的通知信息发送给终端。
第二种，步骤203的具体实现方式如下：
所述基站判断是否需要向所述终端发送所述通知信息；
若是，则向所述终端发送所述通知信息。
在本申请实施例中，所述基站判断是否需要向所述终端发送所述通知信息，包括：
所述基站判断当前下行发送波束与所述第一下行发送波束是否相同；
若不同，则确定需要向所述终端发送所述通知信息。
具体来讲，当基站确定进行下行信号传输的下行发送波束。基站判断是否需要向终端发送波束切换通知消息。判断的方法有如下两种：
a)如果下行发送波束不改变，则不发送该通知消息；
如果下行发送波束发生改变，则基站对比改变前后的下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束标识，如果两者不同，则需要发送通知消息。
b)如果下行发送波束不改变，则不发送该通知消息；
如果下行发送波束发生改变，则基站对比改变前后的下行发送波束对应的下行接收波束组的分组标识，如果两者不同，则需要发送通知消息。
在执行完成上述步骤之后，本申请实施例中的方法便执行步骤204，即：所述基站基于所述第一下行发送波束向所述终端发送所述下行信号。
具体来讲，当基站和终端确定好下行发送波束和下行接收波束之后，便可以进行下行信号传输。
