Description

一种用户设备、基站和服务中心中的方法和设备 技术领域
本申请涉及无线通信系统中的无线信号的传输方案,特别是涉及被用于定位的方法和装置。
背景技术
传统的基于数字调制方式的无线通信系统,例如3GPP(3rd Generation Partner Project,第三代合作伙伴项目)蜂窝系统中,UE往往通过PRS(Positioning Reference Signal,定位参考信号)估计出来自多个基站的下行信号的OTDOA(Observed Time Difference of Arrival,观察到达时间差),并将上述结果汇报给E-SMLC(Enhanced Serving Mobile Location Centre,增强的移动台定位中心),以实现对UE的定位。
5G系统中,Massive MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output,多输入输出)以及对应的BF(Beamforming,波束赋型)技术将被广泛采用,而通过BF处理的下行参考信号将会具有显著的方向性,目前采用的定位方法,将会具有改进的空间。
发明内容
5G系统中,一种实现UE的定位方法仍然是采用现有系统的基于OTDOA的多基站定位技术。然而当基站只能在高频波段下工作时,对应发送的PRS也会存在一定的方向性,即PRS不是全方向覆盖的。在此情况下,一种直接的方式就是PRS采用所有方向上的扫射(Sweeping)的方式进行发送,因为不能保证UE的接收方向可以及时准确的和PRS的发送方向对齐,此种方式会带来定位计算延迟的增加。
针对上述问题,本申请提供了解决方案。需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请的实施例和实施例中的特征可以任意相互组合。例如,本申请的UE中的实施例和实施例中的特征可以应用到基站中,反之亦然。
本申请公开了一种被用于定位的UE中的方法,其特征在于包括:
-发送第一信息;
-接收X1个第一信号;
-发送第一测量报告;
其中,所述第一信息被用于确定X1个第一天线端口,所述X1个第一天线端口分别被用于发送所述X1个第一信号;所述第一测量报告包括K1个测量信息,所述K1个测量信息中的每一个测量信息均针对所述X1个第一信号中的一个第一信号;所述测量信息被用于确定对应的{时间长度的集合,第一天线端口,第一角度}中的至少前两者;所述时间长度的集合和所述第一角度均与所述第一天线端口相关;所述时间长度的集合中包括一个或者多个时间长度;所述第一信息的接收者和所述第一测量报告的接收者是非共址的;所述X1是大于1的正整数,所述K1是正整数。
作为一个实施例,上述方法的好处在于,所述第一信息是UE进行波束选择时反馈的信息。5G系统中,UE要接入一个基站,或者一个TRP(Transmission Reception Point,发送接收节点),或者一个gNB(New Generation NodeB,新一代基站)获得服务,需要进行波束选择(Beam Selection)以获取UE在基站的哪一个波束方向或者天线端口(组)中被服务,所述波束选择的信息用于指示基站和定位服务器PRS的发送方向,将会更加准确的对准进行定位的UE。对于全方向的PRS Sweeping的方式,此种根据UE汇报的波束选择的结果生成PRS的发送方向和发送端口,将更为迅速以及更为准确的完成定位的过程。
