具体实施方式
为使本公开技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图及具体实施例进行详细描述。
参见图1,图1为本公开实施例可应用的网络结构图,如图1所示,包括发送端11和接收端12,其中,发送端11可以理解为传输(或者发送)数据的设备,而接收端12可以理解为接收数据的设备。其中,在附图中以发送端11为网络侧设备,接收端12为用户设备进行举例,但本公开实施例中,发送端11可以为用户设备,且在发送端11为用户设备时,接收端12可以是网络侧设备或者用户设备;或者发送端11为网络侧设备时,接收端12可以是用户 设备或者网络侧设备。另外,本公开实施例中,用户设备可以是手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,简称PDA)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)或可穿戴式设备(Wearable Device)等终端侧设备,需要说明的是,在本公开实施例中并不限定发送端11的具体类型,网络侧设备可以是传输接收点(TRP,Transmission Reception Point),或者可以是基站,基站可以是宏站,如LTE eNB、5G NR NB等。或者网络侧设备可以是接入点(AP,access point)。需要说明的是,在本公开实施例中并不限定网络侧设备的具体类型。
参见图2,本公开实施例提供参考信号的传输方法,如图2所示,包括以下步骤:
201、发送端使用第二预编码矩阵对用户数据的数据流进行预编码,得到D个虚拟数据流;
202、发送端使用第一预编码矩阵对所述D个虚拟数据流进行预编码,并通过T个天线组向接收端传输预编码后的D个虚拟数据流,其中,每个天线组包括一个或者多个具有相同相位噪声的天线单元或者天线端口,T为大于或者等于1的整数,D为大于或者等于1的整数;
203、发送端向所述接收端传输D个解调参考信号(De Modulation Reference Signal,DMRS),其中,每个调解参考信号使用的预编码向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该解调参考信号所在子载波上使用的所述第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相同,每个解调参考信号和对应的虚拟数据流使用相同的天线组传输;
204、发送端向所述接收端传输M个相位跟踪参考信号(Phase tracking Reference Signal,PTRS),所述M个相位跟踪参考信号用于跟踪所述T个天线组中由一个或多个相位噪声源所引起的相位变化,M为大于或者等于1的整数。
本公开实施例中,上述用户数据可以是发送端与接收终端之前可以传输的 任何数据,例如:上行数据或者下行数据。
本公开实施例中,可以实现在进行数据流传输之前,先对用户数据的数据流进行第二预编码矩阵对应的编码,以得到上述D个数据虚拟流。例如:对用户设备的R个数据流进行第二预编码矩阵对应的编码,以得到上述D个虚拟数据流。这样可以实现用户数据通过第二预编码矩阵轮循的方式,在高速环境下进行数据传输,提高传输性能。
而上述D个虚拟数据流可以是将上述用户设备进行预编码后得到的D个数据流。另外,上述D可以是大于或者等于上述T,当然,D小于T也是可以实现的,对此不作限定。
本公开实施例中,预先将发送端的天线划分为T个天线组,且每个天线组内的各天线单元或者天线端口具有相同相位噪声,但不同天线组的天线单元或者天线端口的相位噪声可以不同。当然,也可以是存在某些天线组的相位噪声是相同,对此本公开实施例不作限定。例如:以2组为例,天线组1内的各天线单元或者天线端口具有相同相位噪声,天线组2内的天线单元或者天线端口具有相同相位噪声,但天线组1内的天线单元的相位噪声与天线组2内的天线单元的相位噪声不同,或者有3组时,可以是天线组1内的天线单元的相位噪声与天线组3内的天线单元的相位噪声不同。
上述通过T个天线组向接收端传输预编码后的所述D个虚拟数据流可以是,将上述经过第一预编码矩阵的D个虚拟数据流通过T个天线组传输。每个虚拟数据流可以通过一个或者多个天线组传输。且同一虚拟数据流使用的一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声。另外,使用不同天线组进行传输的虚拟数据流所使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量可以不同,即每个虚拟数据流所使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量与该虚拟数据流所使用的天线组对应。
上述发送端向所述接收端传输D个解调参考信号可以是,发送端为每个虚拟数据流传输一个对应的解调参考信号,且每个调解参考信号使用的预编码 向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该解调参考信号所在子载波上使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相同相同,每个解调参考信号和对应的虚拟数据流使用相同的天线组传输。即第i个解调参考信号使用的预编码与第i个虚拟数据流在第i个解调参考信号所在子载波上使用的第一预编码相同,第i个解调参考信号和第i个虚拟数据流使用同一天线组传输,所述i为1至D中任一整数。例如:调解参考信号1与虚拟数据流1对应,那么,解调参考信号1使用的天线组和第一预编码和虚拟数据流1使用的天线组相同,且解调参考信号1使用的预编码与虚拟数据流1在解调参考信号1所在子载波上使用的第一预编码相同。
本公开实施例中,上述M个相位跟踪参考信号用于跟踪所述T个天线组由一个或多个相位噪声源所引起的相位变化可以是,每个相位跟踪参考信号对应一个或者多个天线组,每个相位跟踪参考信号用于跟踪对应天线组中由一个或者多个相位噪声源所引起的相位变化。即接收端接收到M个相位跟踪参考信号后,就可以估计各天线组的相位噪声,其中,天线组的相位噪声可以是理解为信号使用天线组进行传输时的在不同符号上的相位变化。需要说明的是,本公开实施例中,对相位跟踪参考信号不作限定,该参考信号可以是任何能够跟踪天线单元或者天线端口传输的每个符号的相位变化的参考信号,其可以与解调参考信号类似,在传输用户数据时使用,并经过预编码后进行传输。
上述发送端向所述接收端传输M个相位跟踪参考信号可以是,每个相位跟踪参考信号使用一个或者多个天线组传输,且同一相位跟踪参考信号使用的一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声。这样可以实现让接收端根据接收到的相位跟踪参考信号对各天线组发送的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计,基于补偿信道估计获取信道信息,使用该信道信息解调接收到的数据信号,以得到上述用户数据。这样可以降低相位噪声对用户数据的影响,甚至可以消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响,保证数据的准确传输。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中,对步骤201至步骤204执行顺序不作限 定。其中,附图中以先执行步骤201,再执行步骤202,之后执行步骤203,最后执行步骤204进行举例说明,但本公开实施例对此不作限定,例如:本公开实施例中,还可以是先执行步骤203,再执行步骤201和步骤202,而步骤204则可以与步骤202同步时间;又或者可以是步骤203和步骤204同时执行,在步骤203和步骤204执行完后,再执行步骤201和步骤202。其中,上述虚拟数据流、调解参考信号和相位跟踪参考信号可以是在同一子帧或者同一时隙(slot)内传输,对此本公开实施例不作限定。
其中,接收端的实现过程可以如下:
接收端接收发送端传输的数据信号;
所述接收端接收所述发送端传输的解调参考信号,并估计接收到的每个解调参考信号的信道,其中,所述接收端每个接收天线单元或者天线端口均会接收到D个解调参考信号,其中,D为大于或者等于1的整数;
所述接收端接收所述发送端传输的相位跟踪参考信号,并估计接收到的每个相位跟踪参考信号的信道,其中,所述接收端每个接收天线单元或者天线端口均会接收到M个相位跟踪参考信号,M为大于或者等于1的整数;
针对每个接收天线单元或者天线端口,所述接收端基于该天线单元或者天线端口接收到M个相位跟踪参考信号,对接收到的D个解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计;
所述接收端基于补偿信道估计矩阵与获取的第二预编码矩阵,获得信道信息,其中,所述补偿信道估计矩阵包括各接收天线单元或者天线端口接收到的各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计;
所述接收端使用所述信道信息解调所述数据信号,得到用户数据。
其中,上述数据信号可以称作接收端的接收信号,即发送端执行步骤201后接收端接收到的接收信号。
另外,需要说明的是,由于接收端可以存在多个接收天线单元或者天线端 口,但在接收端并不对其进行分组,而是每个接收天线单元或者天线端口均会接收到D个解调参考信号和M个相位跟踪参考信号。从而可以估计每个接收到的每个解调参考信号的信道,以及估计每个接收到的相位跟踪参考信号的信道。
这样针对每个接收天线单元或者天线端口,就可以基于该接收天线单元或者天线端口接收到M个相位跟踪参考信号,对接收到的D个解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,得到各解调参考信号在该相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。其中,对接收到的D个解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计,可以是使用相位跟踪参考信号估计的信道对与之对应的解调参考信号估计的信道进行相位噪声估计,并基于估计的相位噪声对调解参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,以得到解调参考信号在相应相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。因为M个相位跟踪参考信号用于跟踪所述T个天线组由一个或多个相位噪声源所引起的相位变化,而每个天线组都发送有解调参考信号,那么,每个相位跟踪参考信号就会存在对应的解调参考信号,进而对使用各相位跟踪参考信号对其对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相应相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。
当得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计,就可以使用基于补偿信道估计矩阵与获取的第二预编码矩阵,获得信道信息,例如:将可以将所述补偿信道估计矩阵与获取的第二预编码矩阵进行预设运算得到信道信息,该预设运算包括但不限于将所述补偿信道估计矩阵与获取的第二预编码矩阵相乘。这样使用该信道信息解调数据信号,就可以消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响。另外,该信道信息可以理解为用户数据所经历的完整信道信息,该信道信息可以表现为一矩阵。这样接收端就可以使用该信道信息解调所述数据信号,得到用户数据,以实现降低相位噪声对用户数据的影响,甚至可以消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响,保证数据的准确传输。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中,接收天线单元或者天线端口,并不限定这些天线单元或者天线端口只能进行接收,其还可以进行发送,只是针对接收端在本公开实施例中描述的是接收相应动作,从而以接收天线单元或者无线端口进行描述,但并不作限定。
可选的,本公开实施例,每个虚拟数据流经过预编码后使用一个或者多个天线组传输,且同一虚拟数据流使用的一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声。
该实施方式中,可以实现同一虚拟数据流可以使用一个或者多个天线组传输,且这一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声,从而方便接收端进行相位补偿,以进一步消除相位噪声的影响。
另外,该实施方式中,每个虚拟数据流使用的第一预编码可以与其传输的天线组对应,例如:虚拟数据流1通过天线组1传输,那么,虚拟数据流1使用的第一预编码就与天线组1对应,虚拟数据流2通过天线组2传输,那么,虚拟数据流2使用的第一预编码就与天线组2对应。每个虚拟数据流使用的第一预编码与各自传输的天线组对应,这样可以实现每个虚拟数据流的相位噪声影响只是对应的天线组的相位噪声影响,而不受其他天线组的影响。
可选的,该实施方式中,每个虚拟数据流使用的所述第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量中除该虚拟数据流使用的一个或者多个天线组所对应的权值之外,其余天线组内的天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零。
该实施方式中,可以实现每个虚拟数据流使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量除该虚拟数据流传输使用的一个或者多个天线组所对应的权值之外,其余天线组内的天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零。即每个虚拟数据流在步骤202进行预编码时,使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量中除自己传输的天线组所对应的权值之外,其余天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零,而第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量中自己传输的天线组所对应的权值,就是该天线组内各天线单元或者天线端口的权值,此权值可以由接收端反馈或者 根据上下行互易性由发送端确定。这样可以实现每个虚拟数据流只会受到自己传输使用的天线组的相位噪声影响,而针对每个天线组都传输有相应的相位跟踪参考信号,这样接收端就可以估计出各解调信号的相位噪声,从而可以消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响。
可选的,每个相位跟踪参考信号经过预编码后使用一个或多个天线组传输,且同一相位跟踪参考信号使用的一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声。
该实施方式中,可以实现每个相位跟踪参考信号使用一个或者多个天线组传输,且这一个或者多个天线组具有相同的相位噪声,从而实现一个相位跟踪参考信号跟踪一个相位噪声源引入的相位噪声,以方便接收端估计各天线组的相位变化,以进一步消除相位噪声的影响。
可选的,该实施方式中,每个相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量中除该相位跟踪参考信号使用的一个或者多个天线组所对应的权值之外,其余天线组内的天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零。
该实施方式中,可以实现每个相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量除该相位跟踪参考信号传输使用的一个或者多个天线组所对应的权值之外,其余天线组内的天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零。即每个除除在进行预编码时,使用的预编码向量中除自己传输的天线组之外,其余天线单元或者天线端口所对应的权值均为零,而预编码中自己传输的天线组所对应的权值,就是该天线组内各天线单元或者天线端口的权值,此权值可以由接收端反馈或者根据上下行互易性由发送端确定。这样可以实现每个相位跟踪参考信号只会受到自己传输使用的天线组的相位噪声影响,以有效地跟踪自己传输使用的天线组的相位变化,有利于消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响。
可选的,本公开实施例中,所述第二预编码矩阵的信息由所述发送端与所述接收端预先约定,或者所述方法还包括:
所述发送端向所述接收端传输所述第二预编码矩阵的信息;或者
所述发送端向所述接收端传输所述第二预编码矩阵在数据带宽上使用的 规则。
该实施方式中,发送端可以通过高层信令或动态控制信令等方式告知接收端上述第二预编码矩阵,以及还可以实现通过告知第二预编码矩阵在数据带宽上使用的规则,让接收端基于该规则获取到上述第二预编码矩阵,或者预先约定好。另外,本公开实施例中,上述第二预编码矩阵可以是发送端在全部数据带宽上使用的第二预编码矩阵,从而发送端向接收端告知的第二预编码矩阵也就是全部数据带宽上使用的第二预编码矩阵。
另外,该实施方式中,当采用预先约定的方式,这样发送端就可以不用向接收端发送第二预编码矩阵的信息和上述第二预编码矩阵在数据带宽上使用的规则,从而可以减少传输开销。而当不采用预先约定的方式,则发送端向接收端发送第二预编码矩阵的信息和上述第二预编码矩阵在数据带宽上使用的规则,这样可以实现第二预编码矩阵和上述第二预编码矩阵在数据带宽上使用的规则由发送端决策,从而可以提高第二预编码矩阵的灵活性,以更好的适应业务的需求,以提高业务性能。
可选的,解调参考信号与相位跟踪参考信号的映射关系由所述发送端与所述接收端预先约定,或者所述方法还包括:
所述发送端向所述接收端传输解调参考信号与相位跟踪参考信号的映射关系。
其中,发送端可以通过高层信令或动态控制信令等方式告知接收端相位跟踪参考信号PTRS与DMRS之间的映射关系。其中,该映射关系具体可以是PTRS端口与DMRS端口之间的映射关系,因为在传输PTRS与DMRS都是采用端口进行传输,那么,PTRS端口与DMRS端口存在映射关系,从而也就将PTRS与DMRS存在映射关系。另外,本公开实施例中,一个PTRS也可以理解为一个PTRS端口,而一个DMRS也可以理解为一个DMRS端口。
另外,该实施方式中,当采用预先约定的方式,这样发送端就可以不用向接收端上述映射关系,从而可以减少传输开销。而当不采用预先约定的方式, 则发送端向接收端发送上述映射关系,这样可以实现上述映射关系由发送端决策,从而可以提高上述映射关系的灵活性,以更好的适应业务的需求,以提高业务性能。
另外,该实施方式中,由于接收端会获取到上述映射关系,从而就可以准确确定各相位跟踪参考信号对应调解参考信号,进而对使用相位跟踪参考信号估计的信道对各自对应的解调参考信号估计的信道进行相位补偿,以消除各解调参考信号的相位噪声影响。
例如:针对每个天线单元或者天线端口,接收端都可以根据获取的解调参考信号与相位跟踪参考信号的映射关系,确定该天线单元或者天线端口接收到的各相位跟踪参考信号对应的解调参考信号;并将各相位跟踪参考信号所估计的信道与各自对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行比较,得到各相位跟踪参考信号对应的相位变化信息;以及使用各相位跟踪参考信号对应的相位变化信息,对各自对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位噪声补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。
例如:以一个天线端口接收到一个相位跟踪参考信号为例,接收端可以根据上述映射关系确定接收到的该相位跟踪参考信号对应的解调参考信号,从而就可以将该相位跟踪参考信号所估计的信道与该相位跟踪参考信号对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行比较,从而得到该相位跟踪参考信号对应的相位变化信息,该相位变化信息可以理解为相位噪声估计。当得到该相位跟踪参考信号对应的相位变化信息后,就可以将该相位变化信息对该相位跟踪参考信号对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位噪声补偿,得到各解调参考信号在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。例如:将该相位变化信息乘以解调参考信号估计的信道,以得到该在相位跟踪参考信号所在符号上的补偿信道估计。
可选的,解调参考信号与相位跟踪参考信号的映射关系,包括:
一个相位跟踪参考信号至少对应一个解调参考信号,具有对应关系的相位 跟踪参考信号和解调参考信号使用相同的天线组进行传输;
相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的所述第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相关,其中,相位跟踪参考信号对应的虚拟数据流为该相位参考信号对应的调解参考信号所对应的虚拟数据流。
该实施方式中,可以实现一个相位跟踪参考信号至少对应一个解调参考信号,且具有对应关系的相位跟踪参考信号和解调参考信号使用相同的天线组进行传输,这样接收端使用相位跟踪参考信号估计的信道,对其对应的解调参考信号所估计的信道进行相位补偿,可以让相位补偿更加精确,因为存在对应关系的相位跟踪参考信号和解调参考信号是使用相同的天线组进行传输的。
另外,由于相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相关,这样可以有利于接收端基于相位跟踪参考信号估计的信道信息解调接收端接收的数据信号,以进一步消除相位噪声对用户数据的影响。
可选的,若相位跟踪参考信号对应一个解调参考信号,则该相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的所述第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相同;
若相位跟踪参考信号对应多个解调参考信号,则该相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量由多个虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的所述第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量经过运算后得到,所述多个虚拟数据流为所述多个解调参考信号对应的虚拟数据流。
该实施方式中,由于相位跟踪参考信号对应一个解调参考信号时,相位跟踪参考信号使用的预编码向量与对应的虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的第一预编码矩阵中的预编码向量相同,这样相位跟踪参考信号和对应的虚拟数据流经历的信道特性相同,有利于接收端基于相位跟踪参考信号估计的信道信息解调接收端接收的数据信号,以进一步消除相位噪声对用 户数据的影响。另外,上述运算后得到可以是将多个虚拟数据流在该相位跟踪参考信号所在子载波上使用的第一预编码进行预设运算,例如:相加等,对此本公开实施例不作限定。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中上述介绍的多种可选的实施方式之间可以相互结合实现,也可以单独实现,对此本公开实施例不作限定。例如:如下举例:
例一:
假设待传输的用户数据流数R=2,发送端的天线阵列中前N1个天线单元或天线端口具有相同的相位噪声分为一组,后N-N1个天线单元或天线端口具有相同的相位噪声分为一组,即T=2,两组之间的相位噪声不同,这样需要M=2个PTRS端口。接收端使用2天线或天线端口进行接收。假设需要D=2个DMRS端口,参考信号的子帧配置如图3所示。其中DMRS位于第三个OFDM符号,包含2个端口,在符号内频分复用。每个PTRS参考信号占用一个子载波(PTRS端口1配置在第5个子载波上,PTRS端口2配置在第4个子载波上),在第4至14个符号上连续传输。第1-2个OFDM信号为控制信道,其余部分为用户数据。
发送端侧(例如:基站侧):
假设系统中的第二预编码矩阵集合中有S个第二预编码矩阵,此第二预编码矩阵集合为基站侧与接收端所共知。基站侧配置在用户数据带宽内的第k个子载波上使用第二预编码矩阵集合中的索引为mod(k,S)的索引值所对应的第二预编码矩阵,其中mod为取模操作。
假设用户数据的R=2个数据流经过以下D×R维的第二预编码矩阵W2后,得到2个虚拟化数据流,将其定义为虚拟化第一数据流和虚拟化第二数据流。此第二预编码矩阵可以由基站在一个预定义的预编码矩阵集合中选择。

将虚拟化第一数据流在发射端的前N1个天线单元或天线端口上传输,将虚拟化第二数据流在发射端的后N-N1个天线单元或天线端口上传输。此时这两个虚拟化数据流所使用的第一预编码矩阵表示为:
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000002
其中,

为(N-N 1)×1的列向量,其对应于第二虚拟化数据流所使用的预编码中,后N-N1个天线单元或天线端口所对应的权值。
DMRS端口1在发送端的前N1个天线单元或天线端口上传输,如图3所示,其分布在子载波d1=2,4,6,8,10,12上。对于子载波d1上的DMRS1,其使用与第一虚拟数据流在此子载波上相同的预编码

DMRS端口2在发送端的后N-N1个天线单元或天线端口上传输,如图3所示,其分布在子载波d2=1,3,5,7,9,11上。对于子载波d2上的DMRS2,其使用与第二虚拟数据流在此子载波上相同的预编码
2个PTRS端口用于估计两个部分的相位噪声。其中PTRS端口1使用

进行预编码,PTRS端口2使用
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000008
进行预编码。其中,图4给出了所述传输的示意图。
基站侧将PTRS1映射至DMRS1,PTRS2映射至DMRS2的信息通过高层信令或动态控制信令告知终端。同时,基站侧通过高层信令或动态控制信令告知终端,第一数据流映射至DMRS端口1,第二数据流映射至DMRS端口2。
基站侧将其配置的每个子载波上使用的第二预编码矩阵在第二预编码矩阵集合中的索引通过高层信令告知终端。
而该举例中,接收端(例如:终端侧):
假设接收端的两天线或天线端口具有不同的相位噪声,则在第l个符号的第k个子载波接收到的数据信号表示为
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000009
进一步表示为:
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000010
其中,假设信道H k,l和预编码w k,l在一个时间单位(子帧)中保持不变。发送端相位噪声矩阵的对角线上,
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000011
的元素有N1个,
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000012
的元素有N-N1个。
接收端在第三个OFDM符号接收DMRS参考信号。以第1个接收天线单元或者天线端口为例,其可以由DMRS端口1估计出合成信道
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000013
且由DMRS端口2估计出合成信道
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000014
在DMRS所在符号上,利用信道插值可以估计出所有子载波的信道,根据图2的假设,这里k=1,2,…,12。
接收端从第4个OFDM符号,接收2端口PTRS,并使用PTRS端口1估计出
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000015
使用PTRS端口2估计出
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000016
l≥4。
接收端接收发送端通过信令告知的PTRS1-2分别与DMRS1-2一一映射的信息。根据此信息,使用PTRS1的信道估计结果与DMRS1的信道估计结果进行相除,得出第一根接收天线或天线端口上第1个符号相对于第3个符号的发送端第一组天线单元或天线端口所经历的相位变化,表示为
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000017
以及第一根接收天线或天线端口上第1个符号相对于第3个符号的发送端 第二组天线单元或天线端口所经历的相位变化,表示为
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000018
由此可以得到第一根接收天线或天线端口上,第1个符号的第k个子载波上的信道估计,
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000019
类似的,可以得出第二根接收天线或天线端口上,第1个符号的第k个子载波上的信道估计,
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000020
根据发送端通过信令告知的第二预编码矩阵索引,在第二预编码矩阵集合中确定第k个子载波上使用的第二预编码矩阵。将上述所有天线上估计出的信道矩阵与确定出的第二预编码矩阵相乘,可以获得用户数据所经历的完整信道信息,表示为
Figure PCTCN2017119381-appb-000021
根据以上估计出的完整信道信息可以解调出每个流的用户数据。其他子载波可以同理获得,不再赘述。
例二:
假设待传输的用户数据流数R=3,发送端的天线阵列中前N1个天线单元或天线端口具有相同的相位噪声分为一组,后N-N1个天线单元或天线端口具有相同的相位噪声分为一组,即T=2,两组之间的相位噪声不同,这样需要M=2个PTRS端口。假设使用D=4个DMRS端口,接收端使用4个天线单元或天线端口,参考信号的子帧配置如图5所示。其中DMRS位于第三个OFDM符号,包4个端口,在符号内频分复用。每个PTRS参考信号占用一个子载波(PTRS端口1配置在第5个子载波上,PTRS端口2配置在第4个子载波上),在第4至14个符号上连续传输。第1-2个OFDM信号为控制信道,其余部分为用户数据。
侧发送端(例如:基站侧):
假设系统中的第二预编码矩阵集合中有S个第二预编码矩阵,此第二预编码矩阵集合为基站侧与接收侧所共知。基站侧与终端侧预先约定,在用户数据带宽内的第k个子载波上使用第二预编码矩阵集合中的索引为mod(k,S)的索引值所对应的第二预编码矩阵,其中mod为取模操作。
