Description

信道状态信息反馈方法、用户设备及基站
本申请要求于2017年1月9日提交中国专利局、申请号为201710014457.1、申请名称为“信道状态信息反馈方法、用户设备及基站”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术,尤其涉及一种信道状态信息反馈方法、用户设备及基站。
背景技术
长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统中,传统天线阵列在垂直方向具有固定的下倾角,即对小区内每个用户设备在垂直方向上提供固定的波束。为提高小区边缘用户吞吐率和小区平均吞吐率,引入三维(3 Dimension,3D)波束赋形(Beaming Forming,BF)技术。3D波束赋形技术基于有源天线系统(Active Antenna System,AAS),可根据用户设备的位置,在垂直方向为每个用户设备产生不同下倾角的波束,从而在水平方向和垂直方向都进行波束赋形。为支持3D波束赋形技术,需要相应的信道状态信息的反馈。其中,信道状态信息包括信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator,CQI)、预编码矩阵指示指示(Precoding Matrix Indicator,PMI)以及秩指示(Rank Indication,RI)等。
一般来说,信道状态信息由用户设备通过信道估计得出。传统信道估计过程中,用户设备对参考信号(Reference Signal,RS),也称导频信号,如信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signals,CSI-RS)进行测量,从而估计出水平维度的信道状态信息并上报给基站。然而,对于3D波束赋形技术来说,用户设备除了对水平维度信道进行信道估计外,还需要对垂直维度信道进行信道估计。显然,仅支持水平维度信道估计的传统信道估计方法,是无法适用于3D波束赋形技术的。
因此,如何提出一种信道状态信息反馈方法,实为业界亟待解决的问题。

用户设备,可以是有线终端,也可以是无线终端,该无线终端可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备。无线终端可以经无线接入网与一个或多个核心网进行通信,无线终端可以是移动终端,如移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有移动终端的计算机,例如,可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。再如,个人通信业务(Personal Communication Service,PCS)电话、无绳电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)等设备。无线终端也可以称为系统、订户单元(Subscriber Unit)、订户站(Subscriber Station),移动站(Mobile Station)、移动台(Mobile)、远程站(Remote Station)、远程终端(Remote Terminal)、接入终端(Access Terminal)、用户终端(User Terminal)、用户代理(User Agent)、用户设备(User Device)、或用户装备(User Equipment)等。
图2为本申请提供的一种冗余版本生成方法的信令图,本实例包括:
101、用户设备UE接收基站配置的N个第一参考信号资源,所述N个第一参考信号资源中的各所述第一参考信号资源包括至少一个端口,N≥2,且为整数。
本步骤中,基站为UE配置N个第一参考信号资源,如N个信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signals,CSI-RS)资源。
102、所述基站向用户设备UE发送所述N个第一参考信号资源。
在配置好N个参考信号资源后,基站向UE发送该N个参考信号资源;相应的,UE接收基站配置的N个参考信号资源。
103、所述UE根据反馈模式确定信道状态指示CSI和M个第一参考信号资源指示信息。
在接收到N个第一参考信号资源后,UE根据反馈模式确定该N个第一参考信号资源的信道状态指示(Channel State Information,CSI)以及M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,该M个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示M个第一参考信号资源中,每个第一参考信号资源的索引和/或质量信息,所述M个第一参考信号资源为所述N个第一参考信号资源中的M个第一参考信号资源,M≤N,且为整数。例如,N个第一参考信号具体为10个第一参考信号资源,索引依次为1~10,M个第一参考信号资源为该10个第一参考信号资源中的第1个第一参考信号资源和第3个第一参考信号资源,第1个第一参考信号资源的质量为10分贝(dB),第3个第一参考信号资源的质量为8db,则M个第一参考信号资源指示信息包括第1个参考信号资源指示信息以及第3参考信号资源指示信息,第1参考信号资源指示信息用于指示索引为1、质量为10db的第一参考信号资源,第3参考信号资源指示信息用于指示索引为3、质量为8db的第第一参考信号资源。
CSI包括以下元素的至少一个:信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator,CQI)、预编码矩阵指示指示(Precoding Matrix Indicator,PMI)、秩指示(Rank Indication,RI)、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量等,反馈模式指示所述CSI中的各元素和所述M个第一参考信号资源指示信息的确定顺序。具体实现时,不同的反馈模式下,CSI中的各个元素、M个第一参考信号资源指示信息的确定顺序不同。例如,当信道的基站侧角度较大时,UE先根据N个测量参考信号资源确定CSI中的RI,再基于RI确定M第一个参考信号资源指示信息,然后基于RI和M个第一参考信号资源指示信息确定PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量中的至少一个;再如,当信道的基站侧角度较小时,UE先根据N个第一参考信号资源确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,在基于M个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的M个第一参考信号资源,确定CSI中的RI,然后基于M个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的M个第一参考信号资源以及确定出的RI,确定PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量中的至少一个;又如,UE先确定CSI中的所有元素,再基于所有元素,确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息;又如,UE先确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,再基于M个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的M个第一参考信号资源,确定CSI中的所有元素。
104、所述UE向所述基站上报所述CSI和M个第一参考信号资源指示信息。
在确定出CSI和M个参考信号资源指示信息后,UE向基站反馈该CSI和M个参考信号资源。
本申请提供的信道状态信息反馈方法,基站为UE配置N个第一参考信号资源并发送给UE,UE在接收到该些第一参考信号资源后,根据反馈模式确定该些第一参考信号资源的CSI以及M个第一参考信号指示信息后,向基站反馈CSI和M个第一参考信号资源指示信息。该过程中,UE将该M个第一参考信号资源的水平维度的CSI与该M个第一参考信号资源指示信息反馈给基站,使得基站根据第一参考信号资源指示信息确定出垂直维度的信道状态信息,从而最终获得两个维度的信道状态信息,解决传统信道估计中,仅反馈水平维度信道状态信息的弊端。
可选的,所述反馈模式包括第一反馈模式或第二反馈模式,第一反馈模式下,UE基于CSI中的至少一个元素确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息;第二反馈模式下,UE基于M个第一参考信号资源指示信息确定CSI。下面,对第一反馈模式和第二反馈模式分别进行详细说明。
首先,第一反馈模式。
第一反馈模式下,UE根据所述N个第一参考信号资源确定所述CSI中的至少一个元素,并基于所述CSI中的至少一个元素确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,该至少一个元素例如为RI、PMI、CQI或信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量等。下面,以该至少一个元素具体为UE在确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息之前、最近一次上报的RI为例,对第一反馈模式进行详细说明。具体的,可参见图3A,图3A为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法实施例二的一个示意图。
请参照图3A,AAS天线阵列例如为一个2×2的天线阵列(如图中
Figure PCTCN2018071834-appb-000001
的所示),在水平维度和垂直维度均可进行波束赋形。垂直维度波束赋形中,AAS天线阵列可在垂直维 度形成不同的波束(beam)。基站配置的N个第一参考信号资源的索引依次为1~5,该5个第一参考信号资源如图中依次用斜线、方格、横线、竖线和点填充的1~5所示。每个参考信号资源对应一个资源端口(port),不同的第一参考信号资源对应不同指向的波束,不同的波束具有不同的波束标识(Beam ID)。也就是说,每个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的索引,与唯一的Beam ID对应。第一反馈模式下,所述UE根据所述N个第一参考信号资源确定所述最近一次上报的RI,并根据所述最近一次上报的RI查询对应关系表以确定所述M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,所述对应关系表存储RI与M之间存在对应关系。例如,RI为1~2,则M为2,RI为3~4,M为4。
第一反馈模式下,假设M个第一参考信号资源指示信息为M个索引对应的M个波束标识(Beam ID),UE在确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息之前,最近一次上报的CSI为RI,如图中“①RI”所示,则UE根据“①RI”,确定“②Beam ID”,该“②Beam ID”为索引1和索引3分别对应的波束的波束标识。若UE确定“②Beam ID”之后,最近一次上报的CSI为RI一直未发生变化,在确定“⑤Beam ID”时,依旧根据“①RI”确定“⑤Beam ID”。然而,若UE基于CSI中的PMI和/或CQI确定M个参考信号资源指示信息,则UE在确定“⑤Beam ID”时,是基于“④PMI/CQI”确定出的。
进一步的,第一反馈模式下,所述UE所述N个第一参考信号资源确定所述最近一次上报的RI,并基于所述最近一次上报的RI确定所述第一M个参考信号资源指示信息之后,还可以根据关联关系,确定M个第二参考信号资源,据所述最近一次上报的RI和所述M个第二参考信号资源,确定所述PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量中的至少一个,然后,UE向所述基站上报所述PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量中的至少一个。其中,所述关联关系为所述M个第一参考信号资源与所述M个第二参考信号资源之间的关联关系。
具体的,再请参照图3A,以确定PMI/CQI为例,UE根据“①RI”确定出“②Beam ID”之后,根据“②Beam ID”和关联关系,确定M个第二参考信号资源,该M个第二参考信号资源图中未示出,并根据M个第二参考信号资源确定所述PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量中的至少一个,然后向基站上报。举例来说,N个第一参考信号资源中的每个第一参考信号资源包括2个端口,该连个端口对应的波束方向相同,该N个第一参考信号资源分别对应波束B1~B10,该N个第一参考信号资源分别对应的索引(Index)依次为Index1~Index10,M个第一参考信号资源为索引为Index1和Index3的第一参考信号资源。关联关系指示第一参考信号资源与第二参考信号资源分别属于不同的参考信号资源集合,且第一参考信号资源与第二参考信号资源的索引具有对应关系,例如,第一参考信号资源的索引与第二参考信号资源的索引相同,或第二参考信号资源的索引为对第一参考信号资源的索引偏移一个值得到。
以第一参考信号资源的索引与第二参考信号资源的索引相同为例,假设第二参考信号资源有10个,分别对应波束B1~B10,索引依次为Index1’~Index10’,每个第二参考信号资源具有8个端口。则UE最近一次上报的RI,确定出M个第一参考信号资源为索引为 Index1和Index3的第一参考信号资源后,根据关联关系,确定出M个第二参考信号资源分别为索引为Index1’和Index3’的第二参考信号资源,基于索引为Index1’和Index3’的第二参考信号资源,确定PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量中的至少一个。
再请参照图3A,RI的反馈周期为第一反馈周期,第一参考信号资源指示信息(即)Beam ID)的反馈周期为第二反馈周期,PMI/CQI的反馈周期为第三反馈周期,所述第一反馈周期为所述第二反馈周期的k1倍,所述第二反馈周期为所述第三反馈周期的k2倍,k1≥1且为整数,k2≥1且为整数。
其次,第二反馈模式。
第二反馈模式下,UE根据所述N个第一参考信号资源确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,并基于所述M个第一参考信号资源指示信息确定所述CSI,该CSI例如为RI、PMI、CQI或信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量等。下面,以UE根据所述N个第一参考信号资源确定M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,并基于M个第一参考信号资源指示信息确定RI为例,对第二反馈模式进行详细说明。具体的,可参见图3B,图3B为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法实施例二的另一个示意图。
请参照图3B,AAS天线阵列例如为一个2×2的天线阵列(如图中
Figure PCTCN2018071834-appb-000002
的所示),在水平维度和垂直维度均可进行波束赋形。垂直维度波束赋形中,AAS天线阵列可在垂直维度形成不同的波束(beam)。UE最近一次上报了3个第一参考信号资源指示信息,该3个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示索引依次为1~3的参考信号资源,该3个第一参考信号资源如图中斜线、方格、横线填充的1~3所示。每个第一参考信号资源对应一个资源端口(port),不同的第一参考信号资源对应不同指向的波束,不同的波束具有不同的波束标识(Beam ID)。也就是说,每个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的索引,与唯一的Beam ID对应。
第二反馈模式下,假设CSI具体为RI,UE在确定RI之前,最近一次上报的M个第一参考信号资源指示信息为“①Beam ID”,“①Beam ID”为索引3端口对应的波束的波束标识,则UE根据“①Beam ID”,确定“②RI”。若UE确定“②RI”之后,UE上报的Beam ID一直未发生变化,则UE在确定“⑤RI”时,仍然基于“①Beam ID”确定“⑤RI”。
进一步的,第二反馈模式下,所述UE根据所述N个第一参考信号资源确定所述M个第一参考信号资源指示信息,并基于所述M个第一参考信号资源指示信息指示的M个第一参考信号资源确定所述CSI中的RI之后,还可以根据根据关联关系,确定M个第二参考信号资源,所述关联关系为所述M个第一参考信号资源与所述M个第二参考信号资源之间的关联关系;所述UE根据所述M个第二参考信号资源以及所述RI,确定所述CSI中的PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量中的至少一个。具体的,可参见上述图3A的描述,此处不再赘述。
再请参照图3B,M个参考信号资源指示信息,即Beam ID的反馈周期为第四反馈周 期,RI的反馈周期为第五反馈周期,PMI/CQI的反馈周期为第六反馈周期,所述第四反馈周期为所述第五反馈周期的k3倍,所述第五反馈周期为所述第六反馈周期的k4倍,k3≥1且为整数,k4≥1且为整数。
下面,用两个具体的场景对上述的信道状态信息反馈方法进行详细说明。具体的,可参见图4A和图4B,图4A为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法中参考信号资源发送方式的一个示意图,图4B为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法中参考信号资源发送方式的另一个示意图。
场景一
请参照图4A。
UE测量基站发送的N个参考信号资源,由N个端口发送。一个参考信号资源是一个端口上发送的参考信号。其中,有N/2个参考信号资源由第一极化方向的N/2天线端口发送,另外N/2个参考信号资源由第二极化方向的N/2天线端口发送。每一个端口的参考信号经过了一个预编码矩阵进行预编码,一个预编码矩阵对应一个波束。因此,可以认为每个端口的参考信号是由一个对应的波束发送出去的。如图4所示,基站发送N=8个参考信号资源,其中N/2=4个参考信号资源由第一极化方向的端口发送,N/2=4个参考信号资源由第二极化方向的端口发送。预编码向量的形式可以有多种,例如离散傅里叶变换(Discrete Fourier Transform,DFT)向量。基站确定N个参考信号(如CSI-RS)s1,…sm,其中,这N个CSI-RS可以是预定义好的,是基站与终端设备已知的。基站将N个预编码矩阵分别乘以N个参考信号,得到N个预编码后的参考信号:s1’=u1×s1,…,sN’=uN×sN,其中ui(i=1,,,.N)是第i个端口的预编码矩阵。
可选的,UE通过测量参考信号,可以自行选择反馈模式并将反馈模式上报给基站。可选的,基站可以通过高层信令(RRC)或者动态信令(DCI)通知UE应该使用的反馈模式。UE测量参考信号,根据选择的反馈模式或者基站配置的反馈模式,确定自己的一套信道状态信息CSI。一套CSI包括反馈模式包括以下元素的至少一个:秩指示RI、预编码矩阵指示PMI和信道质量指示CQI。其中,PMI可以是一个宽带PMI,也可以是多个子带PMI。
反馈模式包括第一反馈模式和第二反馈模式。其中,在第一反馈模式下,所述UE首先根据N个参考信号的测量确定CSI中的至少一个元素,并基于该CSI中的至少一个元素确定M个参考信号资源指示信息。M是小于等N的正整数。M个参考信号资源指示信息中,每一个参考信号资源指示用于指示一个参考信号资源的索引,和或指示该参考信号资源的质量信息,如接收功率(RSRP)、接收质量(RSRQ)等。在第二反馈模式下,UE根据N个参考信号的测量确定M个参考信号资源指示信息,并基于这M个参考信号资源指示信息确定CSI每个元素。
UE确定反馈模式的方式有多种。例如,UE可以根据测量N个端口的参考信号获得N个端口的参考信号的接收功率。当UE判断每个极化方向的N/2个参考信号中,接收功率超过预定门限的参考信号个数均超过1个,UE可以确定采用第一反馈模式上报CSI。反之,若判断每个极化方向的N/2个参考信号中,接收功率超过预定门限的参考信号个数均只有1个,则UE可以确定采用第二反馈模式上报CSI。UE还可以采用其他方式确定反馈模式,在此不做排除。
若采用第一反馈模式,则UE首先根据测量参考信号的结果确定上报RI。RI代表UE指示基站在后续数据传输过程中,在同一个时频资源传输的数据层数。在确定RI后,UE基于RI上报M个参考信号资源的指示,每一个参考信号资源的指示用于指示一个参考信号资源的编号和或该参考信号资源的质量信息。上报M个指示的方法可以是上报波束编号,或者是端口编号等。UE上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻可以与上报上述RI的时刻不同。当上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻迟于上报上述RI的时刻时,上报M个参考信号资源指示所基于的RI是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的RI。可选的,M的取值可以是基站配置给UE的,也可以是UE推荐给基站的。可选的,M的取值与RI具有关联关系。具体的关联关系可以是预定义的,例如通过预定义一个表格,基站通过查询表格配置M的取值。例如,M的取值随着RI的增加而不会减少。可选的,M与RI的关联表格可以是类似于如下表格的形式:
RI M
1-2 2
3-4 4
5-6 6
…… ……
基站根据UE上报的RI,即可配置给UE相应的M取值。具体的关联关系还可以是其他方式,在此不排除。
基于上报的RI和M个参考信号资源指示,UE进一步上报PMI和CQI中的至少一个。这里上报的PMI是针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标PMI,可以包含一个(宽带)PMI或者是多个(子带)PMI。CQI是根据RI、M个参考信号资源指示以及PMI所计算的。其中,PMI用于指示在每个极化方向的端口中,所选择的端口的编号。在第一种方式下,针对RI层数据中的每一层数据,每个PMI在每个极化方向的端口中只选择一个端口;在第二种方式下,针对RI层数据中的每一层数据,每个PMI在每个极化方向的端口中选择至少两个端口,则PMI中包括所选择的端口编号以及这些端口之间的线性组合系数。UE上报上述PMI和CQI可以与上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻不同。当上报PMI和CQI的时刻迟于上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻时,上报PMI和CQI所基于的M个参考信号资源指示是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的M个参考信号资源指示。
因此,在第一反馈模式下,令RI的反馈周期为第一反馈周期,M个参考信号资源指示的反馈周期为第二反馈周期,PMI和CQI的反馈周期为第三反馈周期,则所述第一反馈周期为所述第二反馈周期的k1倍,所述第二反馈周期为所述第三反馈周期的k2倍,k1≥1且为整数,k2≥1且为整数。第一反馈模式的示意图如3A所示。
若选择第二上报模式,则UE首先根据测量参考信号的结果上报M个参考信号资源的指示,每一个参考信号资源的指示用于指示一个参考信号资源的编号和或该参考信号资源的质量信息。上报M个指示的方法可以是上报波束编号,或者是端口编号等。UE根据上报的M个参考信号资源的指示,进而确定RI。UE上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻 可以与上报上述RI的时刻不同。当上报上述RI的时刻迟于上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻时,上报RI所基于的M个参考信号资源指示是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的M个参考信号资源指示。
基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示和RI,UE进一步上报PMI和CQI中的至少一个。这里上报的PMI是针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标PMI,可以包括一个(宽带)PMI或者是多个(子带)PMI。CQI是根据RI、M个参考信号资源指示以及PMI所计算的。其中,PMI用于指示在每个极化方向的端口中,所选择的端口的编号。在第一种方式下,针对RI层数据中的每一层数据,每个PMI在每个极化方向的端口中只选择一个端口;在第二种方式下,针对RI层数据中的每一层数据,每个PMI在每个极化方向的端口中选择至少两个端口,则PMI中包括所选择的端口编号以及这些端口之间的线性组合系数。UE上报上述PMI和CQI的时刻可以与上报RI的时刻不同。当上报PMI和CQI的时刻迟于上报RI的时刻时,上报PMI和CQI所基于的RI是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的RI。
因此,在第二人反馈模式下,令M个参考信号资源指示的反馈周期为第四反馈周期,RI的反馈周期为第五反馈周期,PMI和CQI的反馈周期为第六反馈周期,则所述第四反馈周期为所述第五反馈周期的k3倍,所述第五反馈周期为所述第六反馈周期的k4倍,k3≥1且为整数,k4≥1且为整数。第一反馈模式的示意图3B所示。
对于上述第一反馈模式和第二反馈模式,PMI的第二种上报方式的好处在于,可以提高CSI反馈精度,提高后续数据传输的性能。以第一反馈模式和RI=1为例,进行说明,如何计算选择的多个端口的线性组合系数来上报PMI。
UE通过测量N=8个参考信号,针对第一极化方向的N/2=4个参考信号(参考信号资源指示分别为1至4)选择了1号和2号参考信号,针对第二极化方向的N/2=4个参考信号(参考信号资源指示分别为5至8)选择了5号和6号参考信号。则基于这四个参考信号UE可以估计某一个子带的信道系数:
X=[H×u 1,H×u 2,G×u 1,..G×u 2]
其中,H是第一极化方向的端口对应的天线到UE的信道系数,G是第二极化方向的端口的对应的天线到UE的信道系数。根据RI=1,UE通过对信道系数X做奇异值分解或通过其他方法,可以求得X的右主奇异值向量x=[v 1,v 2,u 1,…,u 2]。则参考信号资源指示1、2、5和6以及每个子带的系数[v 1,v 2,u 1,…,u 2]即为UE上报的PMI。信道系数X是基于所选择的M个参考信号资源测量得到的M套CSI,上报的PMI[v 1,v 2,u 1,…,u 2]是基于这M套CSI获得的目标PMI。
场景二
请参照图4B。
UE测量基站发送的N个第一参考信号资源。每个第一参考信号资源由n个端口发送,同一个第一参考信号资源的n个端口用相同的预编码矩阵对端口上的测量参考信号进行预编码,即同一个第一参考信号资源的n个端口的波束方向相同,该波束方向就是该第一参考信号的波束方向。如上图所示,基站N=2个第一参考信号资源,每个第一参考信号资源由n=4个端口发送,u1是第一个第一参考信号资源的预编码向量,u2是第二个第一参考 信号资源的预编码向量。
可选的,UE通过测量参考信号,可以自行选择反馈模式并将反馈模式上报给基站。可选的,基站可以通过高层信令(Radio resource control,RRC)或者动态信令(Downlink control informtion,DCI)通知UE应该使用的反馈模式。UE测量参考信号,根据选择的反馈模式或者基站配置的反馈模式,确定自己的一套信道状态信息CSI。一套CSI包括反馈模式包括以下元素的至少一个:秩指示RI、预编码矩阵指示PMI和信道质量指示CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量。其中,PMI可以是一个宽带PMI,也可以是多个子带PMI,信道协方差矩阵可以是一个宽带信道协方差矩阵,也可以是多个子带信道协方差矩阵,信道特征向量可以是一个宽带信道特征向量,也可以是多个子带信道特征向量。
反馈模式包括第一反馈模式和第二反馈模式。其中,在第一反馈模式下,所述UE首先根据N个第一参考信号资源的测量确定CSI中的至少一个元素,并基于该CSI中的至少一个元素确定M个参考信号资源指示信息。M是小于等N的正整数。M个参考信号资源指示信息中,每一个参考信号资源指示用于指示一个第一参考信号资源的索引,和或指示该第一参考信号资源的质量信息,如接收功率(RSRP)、接收质量(RSRQ)等。在第二反馈模式下,UE根据N个第一参考信号资源的测量确定M个参考信号资源指示信息,并基于这M个参考信号资源指示信息确定CSI每个元素。
UE确定反馈模式的方式有多种。例如,UE可以根据测量N个第一参考信号资源的接收功率。当UE判断接收功率超过预定门限的第一参考信号资源大于1个,UE可以确定采用第一反馈模式上报CSI。当UE判断接收功率超过预定门限的第一参考信号资源只有1个,UE可以确定采用第二反馈模式上报CSI。UE还可以采用其他方式确定反馈模式,在此不做排除。
若采用第一反馈模式,则UE首先根据测量第一参考信号的结果确定上报RI。RI代表UE指示基站在后续数据传输过程中,在同一个时频资源传输的数据层数。在确定RI后,UE基于RI上报M个参考信号资源的指示,每一个参考信号资源的指示用于指示一个第一参考信号资源的编号和或该第一参考信号资源的质量信息。UE上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻可以与上报上述RI的时刻不同。当上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻迟于上报上述RI的时刻时,上报M个参考信号资源指示所基于的RI是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的RI。
可选的,M的取值可以是基站配置给UE的,也可以是UE推荐给基站的。可选的,RI与M和n的取值有关系。一个例子中,如果RI是小于等于n的整数,则M的取值可是大于等于1的整数。一个例子中,如果RI是大于等于n的整数,则M的取值是大于1的整数。例如,n=2,RI=3,则基站配置的M可以是大于等于RI/n=1.5的正整数,即M可以是大于等于2的整数。具体的关联关系可以通过一个表格表示,基站或UE通过查询表格即可确定M。
基于上报的RI和M个参考信号资源指示,UE进一步上报PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量中的至少一个。可选的,PMI可以用于指示UE所选择的预编码矩阵。可选的,上报的PMI指示的预编码矩阵包括M×n列,该预编码矩阵用于对上报的M个参考信号资源指示指示的M个第一参考信号资源的共M×n个端口进行预编码,即针对M 个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标PMI。可选的,该目标PMI可以是基于测量M个参考信号资源获得的M个CSI合成获得的。可选的,该目标PMI可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。可选的,上报的信道协方差矩阵可以包括M个协方差矩阵,其中的每一个协方差矩阵是上述M个参考信号资源中的一个参考信号资源的n个端口到UE的信道的协方差矩阵。或者,上报的信道协方差矩阵包括一个协方差矩阵,是上述M个参考信号资源的M×n个端口到UE的信道的协方差矩阵,即针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标协方差矩阵。该目标协方差矩阵可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。类似的,上报的信道特征向量可以包括M个信道特征向量,其中的每一个信道特征向量是上述M个参考信号资源中的一个参考信号资源的n个端口到UE的信道的信道特征向量。或者,上报的信道特征向量包括一个信道特征向量,是上述M个参考信号资源的M×n个端口到UE的信道的信道特征向量,即针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标信道特征向量。该目标信道特征向量可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。CQI基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示、RI和PMI计算,或基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示、RI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量计算。
UE上报上述PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵和信道特征向量的时刻可以与上报上述M个参考信号资源指示的时刻不同。当上报PMI、CQI信道协方差矩阵和信道特征向量的时刻迟于上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻时,上报PMI、CQI信道协方差矩阵和信道特征向量所基于的M个参考信号资源指示是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的M个参考信号资源指示。
可选的,在上述一个目标PMI还可以用于上报所选择的M个参考信号资源的共M×n个端口的一套线性组合系数。该一套组合系数可以是基于测量M个参考信号资源获得的M个CSI合成得到的。以M=2,n=2,RI=1为例说明线性组合系数的一种求解方法。UE测量N个参考信号资源,选择了1号和2号参考信号资源。其中,1号参考信号资源的2个端口到UE的下行信道的信道矩阵为H,2号参考信号资源的2个端口到UE的下行信道的信道矩阵为G。H和M的维度均为M×2,其中M为UE的天线数。UE分别对H和G的信道矩阵进行奇异值分解得到H的主特征向量v1,以及G的主特征向量v2,其中v1和v2均是维度为2×1的向量。基于v1和v2,UE可以首先计算两组端口的等效信道H_eff和G_eff,其中,H_eff=H×v1,G_eff=G×v2,并对合成信道F=[H_eff G_eff]进行奇异值分解或其它计算,得到主特征向量u,其中u=(u1,u2),是维度为2×1的向量,由u1,u2两个复数组成。其次,UE根据1号和2号参考信号资源对应的基向量集合(标准中预定义的或者基站配置的)和上述求得的主特征向量(v1,v2),确定1号参考信号资源的n=2个端口的线性组合系数(a1,a2),确定1号参考信号资源的n=2个端口的线性组合系数(b1,b2)。则上报的目标PMI包括如下一套组合系数(u1,u2,a1,a2,b1,b2)。其中,(a1,a2,b1,b2)是针对2个参考信号资源的测量获得的M=2套CSI,系数(u1,u2)是在这M=2套CSI的技术上进一步获得的。因此,上报的一套组合系数(u1,u2,a1,a2,b1,b2)是基于套CSI合成得到的PMI。该组合系数可以针对整个带宽上报一套,也可以针对每个子带上报一套。组合系数还可以通过其他方式求解,在此不作排除。
因此,在第一反馈模式下,令RI的反馈周期为第一反馈周期,M个参考信号资源指示的反馈周期为第二反馈周期,PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵和信道特征向量的反馈周期为第三反馈周期,则所述第一反馈周期为所述第二反馈周期的k1倍,所述第二反馈周期为所述第三反馈周期的k2倍,k1≥1且为整数,k2≥1且为整数。
若采用第二上报模式,则UE首先根据测量参考信号的结果上报M个参考信号资源的指示,每一个参考信号资源的指示用于指示一个参考信号资源的编号和或该参考信号资源的质量信息。UE根据上报的M个参考信号资源的指示,进而确定RI。UE上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻可以与上报上述RI的时刻不同。当上报上述RI的时刻迟于上报M个参考信号资源指示的时刻时,上报RI所基于的M个参考信号资源指示是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的M个参考信号资源指示。
基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示和RI,UE进一步上报PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量中的至少一个。可选的,上报的PMI指示的预编码矩阵包括M×n列,该预编码矩阵用于对上报的M个参考信号资源指示指示的M个第一参考信号资源的共M×n个端口进行预编码,即针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标PMI。该目标PMI可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。可选的,上报的信道协方差矩阵可以包括M个协方差矩阵,其中的每一个协方差矩阵是上述M个参考信号资源中的一个参考信号资源的n个端口到UE的信道的协方差矩阵。或者,上报的信道协方差矩阵包括一个协方差矩阵,是上述M个参考信号资源的M×n个端口到UE的信道的协方差矩阵,即针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标协方差矩阵。该目标协方差矩阵可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。类似的,上报的信道特征向量可以包括M个信道特征向量,其中的每一个信道特征向量是上述M个参考信号资源中的一个参考信号资源的n个端口到UE的信道的信道特征向量。或者,上报的信道特征向量包括一个信道特征向量,是上述M个参考信号资源的M×n个端口到UE的信道的信道特征向量,即针对M个第一参考信号资源的测量合成一个目标信道特征向量。该目标信道特征向量可以针对整个带宽上报一个,或者针对每个子带上报一个。CQI基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示、RI和PMI计算,或基于上报的M个参考信号资源指示、RI、信道协方差矩阵或信道特征向量计算。UE上报上述PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量的时刻可以与上报RI的时刻不同。当上报PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量的时刻迟于上报RI的时刻时,上报PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向量所基于的RI是本上报时刻之前,最近一次上报的RI。
因此,在第二反馈模式下,令M个参考信号资源指示的反馈周期为第四反馈周期,RI的反馈周期为第五反馈周期,PMI和CQI的反馈周期为第六反馈周期,则所述第四反馈周期为所述第五反馈周期的k3倍,所述第五反馈周期为所述第六反馈周期的k4倍,k3≥1且为整数,k4≥1且为整数。
可选的,在上述PMI还可以用于上报所选择的M个参考信号资源的共M×n个端口的一套线性组合系数。具体的求解方式与第一反馈方式中的组合系数求解方式类似,不再赘述。
可选的,在第二反馈模式下,UE上报的PMI、CQI、信道协方差矩阵以及信道特征向 量可以基于N个第二测量参考资源的测量获得。其中,N个第一测量参考资源与N个第二参考信号资源具有关联关系,例如第i个第二参考信号资源的波束方向与第i个第一参考信号资源的波束方向相近,并且第i个第二参考信号资源的端口包含第i个第一参考信号资源的端口。或者第i个第二参考信号资源的波束方向与第i个第一参考信号资源的波束方向相近,并且第i个第二参考信号资源的波束的宽度可以比第i个第一参考信号资源的波束的宽度更窄。或者,第i个第二参考信号资源对应一组波束,这一组波束的方向与相关联的第i个第一参考信号资源的波束相近。具体的关联关系还可以是其他形式,在此不作排除。基于这种关联关系,基站可以基于UE上报的M个参考信号资源指示,配置相应的第二参考信号资源。UE则可以根据这种关联关系,测量相应的第二参考信号资源。具体的,可参见图5A与图5B,图5A为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法中的一个第一参考信号资源和第二参考信号资源的关联关系示意图。图5B为本申请信道状态信息反馈方法中的一个第一参考信号资源和第二参考信号资源的另一个关联关系示意图。
请参照图5A,N=4个第一参考信号资源的每一个第一参考信号资源包括2个端口,并且分别对应不同的波束方向。每一个第一参考信号资源关联一个第二参考信号资源。每一个第二参考信号资源有4个端口,分别对应一个波束方向。其中,每一个第二参考信号资源对应的波束方向与相关联的第一参考信号资源的波束方向基本一致。
请参照图5B,N=4个第一参考信号资源的每一个第一参考信号资源包括2个端口,并且分别对应不同的波束方向。每一个第一参考信号资源关联一个第二参考信号资源。每一个第二参考信号资源有2个端口,分别对应一组波束,每组波束包含两个波束。其中,每一个第二参考信号资源对应的波束组两个波束的方向与相关联的第一参考信号资源的波束方向基本一致。
