Description

一种测量方法、基站及终端 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种测量方法、基站及终端。
背景技术
在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统中,终端在整个系统带宽上接收下行信号。其中,下行信号包括物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)和下行公共参考信号如小区特定参考信号(Cell-specific Reference Signals,CRS)和信道状态信息测量参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signals,CSI-RS)。LTE系统支持的系统带宽有1.4MHz、3MHz、5MHz、10MHz、15MHz和20MHz。其中比较典型、应用较多的系统带宽是20MHz和10MHz。在下行信道分别对应100个物理资源块(Physical Resource Block,PRB)和50个PRB。
在现有的LTE系统中,终端会一直在整个下行系统带宽上盲检PDCCH,这样会导致终端的功耗较大。尤其在第五代移动通信技术(5-Generation,5G)系统以及后续系统带宽较大的移动通信技术系统中,由于载波的带宽可能非常宽,例如可达到200MHz。如果终端仍然像在LTE系统即第四代移动通信技术(5-Generation,4G)系统中一样在全带宽上接收PDCCH,那样终端的功耗将非常高。对于支持机器通信(Machine Type Communications,MTC)的终端而言,可以在1.4MHz即6个PRB带宽上去解调下行信号。此种类型的终端,由于下行带宽变小,终端的功耗得以节约。但是由于此类终端只能工作在较窄的带宽上,如6个PRB上,终端的功能会受比较大的限制。例如,在蜂窝系统中,终端需要测量下行信道的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI),并向基站反馈。基站将根据终端反馈的CSI,作为调度下行数据的重要依据。终端对下行信道的CSI的测量一般是通过测量下行参考信号如CRS或CSI-RS完成的,由于这两种下行参考信号是由基站在整个系统带宽上发送的,难以获得准确的下行信道的CSI,因此需要解决在窄带宽上工作的终端测量下行信道的CSI的问题。

具体实施方式
本发明的说明书和权利要求书及上述附图中的术语“包括”和“具有”以及它们任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含。例如包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、系统、产品或装置没有限定于已列出的步骤或单元,而是可选地还包括没有列出的步骤或单元,或可选地还包括对于这些过程、方法、产品或装置固有的其它步骤或单元。
随着人们通信需求的不断提高,通信技术正快速发展,可以为用户提供更大的带宽,更快的上下行传输速度等。例如,在5G系统中,可以提供高达200MHz的系统带宽。但是随着系统带宽的扩展,如果终端在比较大的系统带宽上接收PDCCH,终端的功耗较高,如果终端一直处于较窄的带宽工作,又会影响系统性能,导致终端无法正常测量下行信道的CSI,从而对下行数据的传输造成影响。因此,本发明实施例提供了一种测量方法,使得终端可以切换 到小于系统带宽的窄带宽上工作,从而节省终端功耗,又可以在需要测量下行信道的CSI时,切换到两个或以上的测量窄带宽测量下行参考信号,然后根据测量结果得到下行信道的CSI。为了便于说明,本发明实施例中以5G系统来进行描述,本领域技术人员应当理解,本发明实施例中的实施方式同样可适用于现有通信系统以及未来更高级别如6G、7G的通信系统,本发明实施例不作任何限定。
下面结合附图对本发明实施例的测量方法及设备进行详细说明。
请参照图1,为本方面实施例中通信系统的架构示意图。其中可以包括基站和至少一个终端,终端也可生称之为用户设备(User Equipment,UE)。
其中,基站可以是演进型节点B(evolved Node B,eNB)、节点B(Node B,NB)、基站控制器(Base Station Controller,BSC)、基站收发台(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)、家庭基站(例如,Home evolved NodeB,或Home Node B,HNB)、基带单元(BaseBand Unit,BBU)等。其也可以被本领域技术人员称之为基站收发机、无线基站、无线收发机、收发机功能、基站子系统(Base Station Sub system,BSS)或者一些其它适当的术语。其可以在PDCCH中承载调度下行控制信息,可具体包含传输格式、资源分配、上行调度许可、功率控制以及上行重传信息等。并可以向UE传输业务的下行数据,接收终端的重传反馈等。基站可以调度终端在窄带宽工作模式下工作,也可以调度终端在窄带宽和系统带宽之间切换,在需要测量下行信道的CSI时,调度终端切换到测量窄带宽测量下行参考信号。
其中,终端可以包括蜂窝电话、智能电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,SIP)电话、膝上型计算机、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、卫星无线电、全球定位系统、多媒体设备、视频设备、数字音频播放器(例如,MP3播放器)、照相机、游戏控制台或者其它任何相似功能的设备。终端也可以被本领域技术人员称为移动站、用户站、移动单元、用户单元、无线单元、远程单元、移动设备、无线设备、无线通信设备、远程设备、移动用户站、接入终端、移动终端、无线终端、远程终端、手持设备、用户代理、移动客户端、客户端或者一些其它适当的术语。其可以接收基站配置的控制信息以及基站调度的时频域资源来进行上行业务数据以 及重传反馈信息的传输。还可以根据基站的调度在窄带宽和测量窄带宽之间进行切换。实现对下行信道的CSI的测量。
为了降低终端的功耗,本发明实施例中可以配置终端在小于系统带宽的窄带宽上工作,下面将结合图2-图10对本发明的测量方法进行详细说明。
请参照图2,为本发明测量方法的第一实施例的流程示意图;在本实施例中,所述测量方法包括以下步骤:
S201,基站向终端发送窄带宽接收模式的切换消息,指示所述终端切换到指定的窄带宽上接收信息。
其中,所述窄带宽的宽度小于系统带宽的宽度。所述切换消息中可以包含指示终端进入所述窄带宽接收模式的时间以及进入所述窄带宽接收模式时窄带宽在频带上的位置。
可选地,进入所述窄带宽接收模式的时间可以包含进入所述窄带宽接收模式的起始时间,终端接收到该切换消息后,在指定的起始时间进入窄带宽接收模式,直至接收到基站发送的停止窄带宽接收模式的消息时切换到系统带宽;或者也可以在接收到基站发送的切换到其他窄带宽或系统带宽的消息时,从当前窄带宽切换到其他窄带宽或系统带宽。
进入所述窄带宽接收模式的时间除了包含进入所述窄带宽接收模式的时间之外,或者还可以包含进入所述窄带宽接收模式的终止时间,终端可以在指定的起始时间进入窄带宽接收模式,在指定的终止时间切换回系统带宽接收信息。
可选地,基站可以通过高层信令,如无线资源控制协议(Radio Resource Control,RRC),或者物理层信令,如DCI来指示终端切换到只接收窄带宽的模式。基站可以指示终端窄带宽接收模式开始的具体时刻,以及窄带宽在频带上的具体位置。这样,终端可以根据该切换消息切换到指定的窄带宽上接收信息。在窄带宽接收模式下,终端可以将自己的射频带宽调谐(retune)到只接收系统指示终端接收的频率域宽度即指定的窄带宽上。例如,如果基站指示终端的窄带宽是6个PRB(以15K Hz子载波间隔为例,就是1.4MHz),那么终端就会将自己的射频单元调谐到系统指示的窄带宽所在的频带位置的6个PRB 上。此时,终端只能接收到位于这6个PRB上的信号。由于接收射频带宽的减少,终端可以获得省电的效果。终端可以不用在较宽的系统带宽上去检测信号,而只需要在小于系统带宽的窄带宽上接收信号和检测信号,减少了终端的工作量,降低了终端的功耗,提升了终端接收信号的效率。
需要说明的是,对于支持机器通信(Machine Type Communications,MTC)的终端而言,可以在1.4MHz即6个PRB带宽上去解调下行信号。对于此种类型终端,由于下行带宽变小,终端的功耗得以节约。但是由于此类终端只能工作在较窄的带宽上,如6个PRB上,终端的功能会受比较大的限制。本发明实施例中的窄带宽的宽度小于系统带宽的宽度,即本发明实施例中窄带宽是指小于系统带宽的频率域上的宽度。与现有4G系统中的1.4MHz的带宽是不同的概念。例如,现有4G系统中比较典型的系统带宽为10MHz和20MHz,当系统带宽为10MHz时,本发明实施例中的窄带宽可以是2MHz、5MHz等小于10MHz的带宽;当系统带宽为20MHz时,本发明实施例中的窄带宽可以是5MHz、10MHz、12MHz等小于20MHz的带宽。当系统带宽为1.4MHz时,本发明实施例中的窄带宽也可以是0.6MHz等小于1.4MHz的带宽。对于更大带宽的5G系统,窄带宽同样可以是小于5G系统中系统带宽的带宽。
由于终端的功耗主要体现在两方面,第一方面,终端在整个系统带宽上检测信号;第二方面,终端对PDCCH的盲检,PDCCH的盲检包括检测不同的控制信道单元聚合等级如2,4,8以及不同DCI长度等,终端检测的DCI既包含只针对单个终端的DCI,需要在UE特定搜索空间检测,也包含针对多个终端的DCI,需要在公共搜索空间检测。由于检测的内容较多,也会导致终端的功耗较高,此时,还可以在位于所述窄带宽上的物理下行控制信道中发送针对所述终端的下行控制信息。
其中,所述下行控制信息位于与所述终端对应的终端特定搜索空间且使用与所述终端对应的控制信道单元聚合等级。
在窄带宽接收模式下,基站用来调度终端的PDCCH位于基站所指示的窄带宽上。为了减少终端接收这种PDCCH的复杂度,可以在位于窄带宽上的PDCCH携带针对单个不同终端的DCI,而不含有针对位于窄带宽上所有终端的DCI;或者说,位于窄带宽上的PDCCH只含有UE特定搜索空间,而不含 有公共搜索空间。同时,针对单个不同终端的DCI,其控制信道单元聚合等级可以是固定的,例如可以在基站向终端配置窄带宽接收模式时就向终端指定其控制信道单元聚合等级是多少。
由于PDCCH中只含有UE特定搜索空间和固定的控制信道单元聚合等级,因此,可以减少终端在接收位于窄带宽上的PDCCH时需要检测的信息量,从而可以进一步降低终端的功耗。
S202,当需要测量下行信道的信道状态信息时,所述基站调度所述终端依次切换到至少两个不同的测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
其中,所述至少两个不同的测量窄带宽的宽度均小于系统带宽的宽度。
所述窄带宽、至少两个不同的测量窄带宽分别位于不同的频带上,可以有部分重叠或完全独立,本发明不作任何限定,且所述至少两个不同的测量窄带宽之和可以为系统带宽,也可以为系统带宽的一部分,本发明实施例同样不作任何限定。
对于处在窄带宽接收模式下的终端,基站可以指示终端在指定时间或者周期性的调谐到位于不同频率位置的其它窄带宽即测量窄带宽上去测量下行参考信号,在测量窄带宽上,终端可以通过测量位于测量窄带宽内的下行参考信号形成窄带的CSI。基站可以配置终端利用测量得到的窄带CSI形成下行信道的CSI反馈给基站;或者也可以由基站配置终端将测量得到的窄带CSI直接反馈给基站,然后由基站根据至少两个窄带CSI计算得到下行信道的CSI。为基站进行下行数据的调度提供参考。实现终端功耗和系统性能的平衡。
当然,除了使用两个及以上的测量窄带宽进行测量之外,也可以使用一个测量窄带宽进行测量,当使用两个及以上的测量窄带宽进行测量时,测量结果的准确性较高。
请参照图3,为本发明测量方法的第二实施例的流程示意图;在本实施例中,所述方法包括以下步骤:
S301,基站向终端发送窄带宽接收模式的切换消息,指示所述终端切换到指定的窄带宽上接收信息。
S302,基站配置所述终端用于测量所述下行参考信号的测量参数,将所述测量参数发送给所述终端。
可选地,所述测量参数包括所述终端用于测量所述下行参考信号的周期、所述终端在所述周期内用于在所述第一测量窄带宽测量所述下行参考信号的第一时段信息、所述终端在所述周期内用于在所述第二测量窄带宽测量所述下行参考信号的第二时段信息。
其中,所述周期包括所述终端进入所述窄带宽接收模式、切换至第一测量窄带宽测量下行参考信号、切换至第二测量窄带宽测量下行参考信号及再一次进入所述窄带宽接收模式的时长。
S303,根据所述测量参数调度所述终端依次切换到所述第一测量窄带宽和所述第二测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
可参见图4,为本发明实施例采用图3所示方法测量下行参考信号的示意图,其中,基站可以配置测量下行参考信号的周期以及在周期内用于在各个测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号的时段信息。例如T1~T1+L为一个完整的周期,T3~T4为在测量窄带宽1上测量下行参考信号的时段,T5~T6为在测量窄带宽2上测量下行参考信号的时段。假设L为14ms,T3~T4占用其中的第5ms至第6ms,T5~T6占用其中的第8ms至第11ms,则在每个周期内,基站都可以调度终端切换到这两个测量窄带宽测量下行参考信号。当然,基站还可以配置终端处于窄带宽的时段信息。例如,如图4所示,基站可以预先配置终端在T1~T2时间上处于窄带接收模式;而在T3~T4时间上调谐到测量窄带宽1上测量下行参考信号;在T5~T6时间上调谐到测量窄带宽2上测量下行参考信号;在在T1+L~T2+L的时间上再回到窄带宽接收模式下。其中,时间T2~T3是留给终端从窄带宽调谐到测量窄带宽1上的时间间隔,时间T5~T6是留给终端从测量窄带宽1调谐到测量窄带宽2上的时间间隔,而T6~T1+L是留给终端从测量窄带宽2调谐回窄带宽的时间。L是整个测量的周期的长度。其中测量窄带宽1和测量窄带宽2都位于系统带宽上。
需要说明的是,为了便于描述,本发明实施例采用了两个测量窄带宽进行测量的方式,本领域技术人员应当理解,当测量窄带宽为3个或以上时,同样可以的采用上述方式依次进行测量。
在本发明实施例中,通过配置具体的周期和不同测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号的时段信息,终端可以在进入窄带宽模式时即开始按照周期进行下行 信道的CSI的测量。可以节省基站的信令开销。当然,在另一种实现方式中,基站配置了上述测量参数之后,终端也可以在进入窄带宽接收模式之后,不立即按照测量参数进行测量,而可以等待基站的触发。
请参见图5,为本发明测量方法的第三实施例的流程示意图;在本实施例中,步骤S501-S502和图3步骤S301-S302相同,步骤S504和步骤S303相同,在步骤S504之前,还包括以下步骤:
S503,在所述窄带宽的物理下行控制信道上发送触发信号。
所述触发信号用于触发所述终端根据所述测量参数切换到所述第一测量窄带宽和所述第二测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
可选地,基站可以利用在窄带宽的PDCCH上的信号,如DCI里的若干bit,触发终端开始测量,终端收到触发信号后才开始按如图4所示方式开始测量。
通过触发的方式来调度终端测量,可以提升基站调度终端测量的灵活性。
且在图3-图5所示实施例中,所述基站为所述终端配置的测量参数包括至少两种不同的配置,在将所述测量参数发送给所述终端时,通过所述窄带宽的物理下行控制信道指示所述终端所述测量参数的配置情况;
若需要修改当前使用的测量参数,则所述基站可以通过所述窄带宽的物理下行控制信道指示所述终端使用另一种配置的测量参数进行测量。
例如,基站预配置了三套不同配置的参数,基站先利用窄带宽PDCCH触发终端开始按第一套配置的参数开始测量;在之后的某一时刻,基站可以再利用窄带宽的PDCCH指示终端采用第二套或第三套配置的参数开始测量。
请参照图6,为本发明测量方法的第四实施例的流程示意图;在本实施例中,所述方法包括以下步骤:
S601,基站向终端发送窄带宽接收模式的切换消息,指示所述终端切换到指定的窄带宽上接收信息。
S602,基站在所述窄带宽的物理下行控制信道发送第一下行控制信息,调度所述终端切换到所述第一测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
其中,所述第一下行控制信息中包含所述第一测量窄带宽的带宽信息以及 测量所述第一测量窄带宽的开始时间和结束时间。
S603,当所述终端测量完所述第一测量窄带宽并切换回所述窄带宽之后,所述基站在所述窄带宽的物理下行控制信道发送第二下行控制信息,调度所述终端切换到所述第二测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
其中,所述第二下行控制信息中包含所述第二测量窄带宽的带宽信息以及测量所述第二测量窄带宽的开始时间和结束时间。
可选地,为了减少带宽信息在DCI中占用的空间,所述基站可以为所述至少两个测量窄带宽的带宽信息配置对应的测量窄带宽索引,所述测量窄带宽索引用于指示所述终端将要切换到的测量窄带宽的带宽信息。基站可以预先将系统带宽划分为若干测量窄带宽,如测量窄带宽1、测量窄带宽2等,不同的测量窄带宽对应不同的测量窄带宽索引(index),由基站通过高层信令,如RRC信令预先配置给终端,或者也可以直接在基站和终端上预先存储。
具体测量过程可参见图7,为本发明实施例采用图6所示方法测量下行参考信号的示意图。
基站通过窄带PDCCH调度处于窄带宽接收模式下的终端,调谐(retune)到不同的测量窄带宽上去测量对应的窄带CSI。例如,基站可以通过在窄带宽PDCCH上传输的DCI指示终端将要测量的测量窄带宽的索引,以及测量开始的时间和结束的时间。处于窄带宽接收模式下的终端在收到对应的调度信息后,将调谐(retune)到对应的测量窄带宽上测量对应的窄带CSI,并在测量结束后调谐回窄带接收模式下。如图7所示,终端在T1~T2时刻接到基站的调度指示,终端将在T3~T4时刻测量针对测量窄带宽1的窄带CSI。T2~T3是终端从窄带宽调谐到测量窄带宽1的时间。对测量窄带宽1的测量结束后,终端在T5~T6时刻接到基站的调度指示,终端在T7~T8时刻测量针对测量窄带宽2的窄带CSI。T6~T7是终端从窄带宽调谐到测量窄带宽2的时间。
在本实施例中,基站通过单次触发的方式来调度终端在不同的测量窄带宽上进行测量,可以提升测量的灵活性,利于基站根据当前的需要灵活配置。
为了得到最终的下行信道的CSI,基站可以执行图8所示实施例的方法。
请参照图8,为本发明为本发明测量方法的第五实施例的流程示意图;在本实施例中,所述测量方法包括:
S801,基站向终端发送窄带宽接收模式的切换消息,指示所述终端切换到指定的窄带宽上接收信息。
S802,当需要测量下行信道的信道状态信息时,所述基站调度所述终端依次切换到至少两个不同的测量窄带宽上测量下行参考信号。
S803,接收所述终端上报的下行信道的信道状态信息,所述下行信道的信道状态信息由所述终端根据预设算法对所述至少两个不同的测量窄带宽的测量结果计算得到;或者,接收所述终端上报的对所述至少两个测量窄带宽的测量结果,根据预设算法计算得到下行信道的信道状态信息。
可选地,基站可以向终端配置预先约定的预设算法,终端可以按被配置的计算方法通过测量不同测量窄带宽的信息参考信号得到的窄带CSI,来计算出系统带宽的CSI。
所述预设算法可以包括但不限于加权求和、求平均值或去掉极值后取平均值。
例如,基站可以为不同的窄带CSI分配不同的权重,终端通过对测量得到窄带CSI加权求和得到基站需要的CSI。如:终端测量得到窄带CSI1和窄带CSI2,基站预先分配的权重分别为w1和w2,终端需要向基站汇报的CSI=w1*CSI1+w2*CSI2。终端也可以对CSI1和CSI2求平均值得到CSI=(CSI1+CSI2)/2。当测量窄带宽较多时,还可以对其中的极大值和极小值去除后,再求平均值。
其中,当采用加权求和的方式计算系统带宽上下行信道的CSI时,可以根据测量窄带宽的频域位置和/或宽度进行权重配置,例如,对某个最常被使用的频域位置分配较高的权重,对某个使用率较低的频域位置分配较低的权重;或者对宽度较大的测量窄带宽分配较高的权重,对宽度较小的测量窄带宽分配较低的权重等,本发明实施例不作任何限定。
终端可以向基站上报计算得到的结果,如通过物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)或在物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)上传输的上行控制信息(Uplink Control Information,UCI)向基站汇报。
当然,终端除了上报计算得到的下行信道的CSI之外,也可以由基站配置终端将获得的窄带CSI直接反馈给基站,如通过PUCCH或PUSCH上的UCI 上报。可选地,当通过PUCCH反馈时,基站可以为不同的窄带CSI(对应不同的测量窄带宽)分配不同的PUCCH资源。当通过UCI反馈时,终端可以将不同的窄带CSI,按预先约定的方式组合为一组数据传输,如将窄带CSI1,窄带CSI2等顺序组合为一组数据向基站反馈。
基站收到这些窄带CSI之后,可以根据上述终端侧描述的预设算法进行计算得到系统带宽上下行信道的CSI,此处不再赘述。
S804,向所述终端发送停止测量的消息,指示所述终端停止测量下行参考信号。
且基站还可以通过窄带宽的PDCCH上的DCI,触发终端停止测量下行参考信号。当基站在获得终端上报的下行信道的CSI或上报的各个窄带CSI之后,基站可以暂时停止终端测量下行参考信号。基站也可以在之后的某一时刻,再次触发终端开始测量下行参考信号。
需要说明的是,以上图2-图8所示的测量方法的实施例可以独立实施,也可以相互组合实施,例如,图8实施例中可以采用图3-图7任一种方式来测量窄带CSI。本发明实施例不作任何限定。
