Description

信息处理的方法、装置、通信设备和通信系统
本申请要求于2017年2月4日提交中国专利局、申请号为201710064621.X、申请名称为“信息处理的方法、装置、通信设备和通信系统”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
本发明实施例涉及通信领域,尤其涉及信息处理的方法、装置、通信设备和通信系统。
背景技术
在无线通信系统中,混合自动重传(Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request,HARQ)技术是一项重要的技术,能够很好地提高数据链路的可靠性。
低密度奇偶校验(low density parity check,LDPC)码是一类具有稀疏校验矩阵的线性分组编码,具有结构灵活,译码复杂度低的特点。由于它采用部分并行的迭代译码算法,从而比传统的Turbo码具有更高的吞吐率。LDPC码被认为是通信系统的下一代纠错码,可用来提高信道传输的可靠性和功率利用率;并可以广泛应用于空间通信、光纤通信、个人通信系统、ADSL和磁记录设备等。目前在第五代移动通信中已考虑采用LDPC码作为信道编码方式之一。
为了支持各种不同码长码率,通信设备在信道编码后会进行速率匹配调整编码块的码率,获取要发送的比特序列,以匹配译码码率。通信设备还可以在速率匹配时对编码生成的LDPC码块进行比特打孔提高码率,或者在速率匹配时对编码生成的LDPC码块进行比特重复降低码率。
发送端的通信设备在速率匹配环节选取要发送的比特序列,经过交织、映射等处理后发送给接收端通信设备。接收端通信设备将比特序列的软值和已保存的软值比特(soft channel bit)合并译码得到编码块。
现有技术中,发送端的通信设备采用已有的速率匹配的方法时,HARQ性能较差。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供了一种信息处理的方法、装置、通信设备和通信系统,可以改善HARQ性能。
第一方面,提供了一种通信系统中信息处理的方法,包括:
获取输出比特序列在编码块中的起始位置k 0(i);
基于输出比特序列长度E(i)及所述起始位置k 0(i)从所述编码块中确定输出比特序列,其中,所述编码块存储于循环缓存中,i为大于或者等于0的整数。
第二方面,提供了一种通信系统中信息处理的方法,包括:
获取长度为E(i)的软比特序列在软信息缓存中保存的起始位置k 0(i);
从起始位置k 0(i)开始将软比特序列合并保存在软信息缓存中。
在上述第一方面或者第二方面的一种可能的实现方式中,对于重传,即i>0,k 0(i)是根据前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)和前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)确定的。k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB。其中,N CB为编码块大小,F(i-1)为编码块中从k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的比特数目。
在这种方式下,相邻两次传输的输出比特序列是连续的,并且两者之间没有重复的比特,这样的输出比特序列发送至接收端的通信设备,可以达到较佳的译码性能。
基于上述实现方式的一种可能的实现方式中,若编码块中的末位比特已被传输,则k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1)+E offset)mod N CB,否则,k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB
这种方式可以使得所有比特被传输后,使得重复的比特数减少,减少译码性能的损失。

或者,

以S=z,z为所述编码块的扩展因子为例,p k=(k·z)mod N CB。在此方式中,k max可以取值为Nb,Nb为基矩阵的列数。
上述方法可以适应多种初传码率,使得每次传输的冗余版本之间的间隔不会变化较大或者重复的比特较多,性能比较稳定。
在上述第一方面或者第二方面的又一种可能的实现方式中,k 0(i)取值为p k,p k

中的一个,其中,0≤p k<N CB,p k为整数,k为整数,0≤k<k max,N CB为所述编码块的大小,k max为大于或者等于4的整数。
例如,k max=2 n,n为大于或者等于2的整数,或者,k max=Nb,Nb为基矩阵的列数。
若p k>(Nb-Mb+j)*z,则p k满足p k-p k-1≤p k+1-p k,其中,p m+1=(Nb-Mb+j)*z,且0<m+1<k<k max-1,j为所述编码块中双列重校验比特的个数,或者j为所述编码块中不可打孔的双列重校验比特的个数,z为所述编码块的扩展因子。

该方法可以使得靠近信息比特的位置,起始位置的分布越密集,靠近编码块末位比特,起始位置的分别越稀疏。
在上述各实现方式中,k max可以为大于4的整数,如,k max=5,或k max=2 n,k max达到8个及以上,n为大于2的整数,如8个或者16个,又例如,k max=Nb,Nb为编码块的基矩阵的列数。k max增加可以使得各冗余版本的起始位置间的距离减小,基于该起始位置确定的冗余版本也可以提高接收端的通信设备的译码性能。
基于上述任一种实现方式的又一可能的实现方式中,对于重传,即i>0,所述起始位置k 0(i)是基于前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)以及前一次传输的输出比特序列长度E(i-1)确定的。
在一种可能的实现方式中,为了减少重复冗余比特的数目,p k为满足p k≥((k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB)的最小值;或者,若((k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB)大于

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行描述。
图1示出了通信系统中的一种LDPC码的基矩阵及其置换矩阵的示意图。LDPC码的基矩阵具有m*n个元素,如果采用z为扩展因子进行扩展,则可以得到校验矩阵H为(m*z)*(n*z)的矩阵,也就是有m*n个分块矩阵构成,每个分块都是一个z*z的单位矩阵经过循环移位获得。扩展因子z一般根据系统支持的码块大小和信息数据的大小确定的。如图1所示为一个m=13,n=38具有QC结构的LDPC码的基矩阵,其码率为(n-m)/n=0.6579。如果扩展因子z=4,则矩阵中所有值为-1的元素经过扩展后为一个4*4大小的全0矩阵,其他元素扩展后则为4*4的置换矩阵。置换矩阵可 以由一个单位矩阵I经过相应次数的循环位移得到,位移次数等于对应的矩阵元素的值。如图1所示,基矩阵中值为0的元素扩展后对应的置换矩阵为4*4的单位矩阵I,值为1的元素扩展后对应的置换矩阵为单位矩阵经过1次位移得到的矩阵,以此类推,此处不再赘述。
基矩阵展开后可以作为LDPC码编码或译码用的校验矩阵。一个码长为n,信息序列长度为k,记为(n,k)的LDPC码可以由校验矩阵H唯一确定,校验矩阵H是稀疏矩阵,其每一行表示一个校验方程约束,对应j个编码比特,每一列表示一个编码比特由m个校验方程约束,任意两个校验方程包含至多一个相同的编码比特。如下式(1)给出了一个LDPC码的校验矩阵H及其对应的校验方程的实例:
Figure PCTCN2018074574-appb-000028
图2示出了一个LDPC码的校验矩阵的示例。如图2所示,该校验矩阵包括了核心矩阵和3个扩展矩阵部分。对于信息数据,可以分别采用4个校验矩阵进行编码和译码:核心矩阵,核心矩阵和扩展矩阵部分1构成的校验矩阵1,核心矩阵、扩展矩阵部分1和扩展矩阵部分2构成的校验矩阵2,核心矩阵、扩展矩阵部分1、扩展矩阵部分2和扩展矩阵部分3构成的完整矩阵。这些校验矩阵具有Raptor-like结构,校验位具有双对角和单列重双重结构,核心矩阵通常包括双对角结构部分。如果编码前的信息比特数为k,根据校验矩阵生成的LDPC编码块的码长为n,则码率为k/n,采用不同的校验矩阵进行编码可以得到具备不同码率的LDPC编码块。可以看出在这些编码块中,根据完整矩阵生成的LDPC码的码长最大,具备最低码率为R min;根据核心矩阵生成的LDPC码码长最小,具备最高码率为R max,根据校验矩阵1生成的LDPC码具备的码率为R 1,根据校验矩阵2生成的LDPC码具备的码率为R 2,则R min<R 2<R 1<R max。需要说明的是,在上述示例中,完整矩阵,核心矩阵、校验矩阵1或者校验矩阵2都可以作为LDPC码的基矩阵根据扩展因子扩展后的编码或者译码矩阵。
在通信系统中,信息数据在通信设备(例如,基站或者终端)之间传输,由于无线传播环境复杂多变,容易受到干扰,出现差错。为了可靠地发送信息数据,在发送端,通信设备对信息数据进行CRC校验、信道编码、速率匹配、交织等处理,并将交织后的编码比特映射成调制符号发送给接收端的通信设备。接收设备接收到调制符号后,相应地通过解交织、解速率匹配、译码,CRC校验恢复成信息数据。这些过程可以减少传输差错,提高数据传输的可靠性。
图3示出的通信系统300可广泛用于提供诸如语音,数据等各种类型的通信。所述通信系统可包括多个无线通信设备。清楚起见,图3仅示出了通信设备30和通信设备31。控制信息或者数据信息作为信息序列在通信设备30和通信设备31之间接收和 发送。通信设备30作为发送端通信设备,按照传输块(transmission block,TB)发送信息序列,并对每一传输块增加CRC校验。如果添加校验后的传输块大小超过最大码块长,则需要将传输块划分为若干码块(code block,CB),每个码块中也可以增加码块CRC校验,或者每组码块中增加码块组CRC校验,还可以对每个码块添加填充比特。通信设备30对每个码块分别进行信道编码,例如,采用LDPC编码,得到相应的编码块。其中,每个编码块中包括信息比特和校验比特,如果信息比特中包括填充比特,填充比特通常表示为“空”(Null)。
编码块或者经过比特重排序的编码块保存在通信设备30的循环缓存中,通信设备30从循环缓存中的编码块顺序获取多个输出比特得到输出比特序列,输出比特是编码块中除填充比特以外的比特,从而输出比特序列是不包括填充比特的。经过交织、映射为调制符号后发送。通信设备30发生重传时将从循环缓存中的编码块选取另一输出比特序列发送,如果顺序获取输出比特达到循环缓存的末位比特时,则从循环缓存的首位比特开始继续选取输出比特。
通信设备31对接收到的调制符号解调,解交织后,将接收到的输出比特序列的软值保存在软信息缓存(soft buffer)中相应位置。如果发生重传,通信设备31将每次重传的输出比特序列的软值合并保存在软信息缓存中,这里的合并是指,如果两次接收到的输出比特的位置相同,则将两次接收到的该输出比特的软值合并。其中,通信设备31中软信息缓存中的位置和通信设备30中循环缓存中的编码块的位置是一一对应的。也就是,如果输出比特在通信设备30中循环缓存中的编码块中的位置是第p比特,则其软值在通信设备31中软信息缓存中的位置也是第p比特。
通信设备31对软信息缓存中的所有软值进行译码得到信息序列的一个码块。由于通信设备31可以获取传输块大小,因此可以确定一个传输块被分割的码块个数以及各码块长度,如果码块中包括CRC比特段,通信设备31还可以利用该CRC比特段对码块进行校验。通信设备31将各码块级联为一个传输块,进一步对传输块进行校验及级联最终得到信息序列。可见通信设备31执行的是通信设备30信息处理方法的逆过程。
需要说明的是,在本发明各实施例中,通信设备30可以是通信系统中的网络设备,如基站,则相应的通信设备31可以是终端。通信设备30也可以是通信系统中的终端,则相应的,通信设备31可以是通信系统中的网络设备,如基站等。
为便于理解下面对本申请中涉及到的一些名词做些说明。
本申请中,名词“网络”和“系统”经常交替使用,但本领域的技术人员可以理解其含义。终端是一种具有通信功能的设备,可以包括具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备等。在不同的网络中终端可以叫做不同的名称,例如:用户设备,移动台,用户单元,站台,蜂窝电话,个人数字助理,无线调制解调器,无线通信设备,手持设备,膝上型电脑,无绳电话,无线本地环路台等。为描述方便,本申请中简称为终端。基站(base station,BS),也可称为基站设备,是一种部署在无线接入网用以提供无线通信功能的设备。在不同的无线接入系统中基站的叫法可能有所不同,例如在而在通用移动通讯系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS)网络中基站称为节点B(NodeB),而在LTE网络中的基站称为演进的节点B(evolved NodeB,eNB或者 eNodeB),在新空口(new radio,NR)网络中的基站称为收发点(transmission reception point,TRP)或者下一代节点B(generation nodeB,gNB),或者其他各种演进网络中的基站也可能采用其他叫法。本发明并不限于此。
图4为本发明一实施例提供的信息处理方法的流程示意图,该方法可用于通信系统,该通信系统包括通信设备30和通信设备31。该方法可以由通信设备30来实施,包括:
401:获取输出比特序列在编码块中的起始位置k 0(i)。
在通信设备30中,编码块存储于循环缓存中,编码块大小用N CB表示,编码块中也可以包括填充比特。在对编码块进行初传或者重传时,通信设备30在循环缓存中的编码块中确定输出比特序列用于初传或者重传,输出比特序列是不包括填充比特的。为了方便说明,第i次传输表示初传或者重传,i=0表示初传,i>0表示重传,i为整数,例如i=1表示第一次重传,i=2表示第二次重传等等。重传的上限取决于系统最大重传次数,其中对于每次初传或者重传的输出比特序列,可以是该编码块的一个冗余版本。k 0(i)表示第i次传输的输出比特序列在循环缓存中的编码块中的起始位置,也可以称之为第i次重传的冗余版本rv(i)的起始位置。
402:基于输出比特序列长度E(i)及起始位置k 0(i)从循环缓存中确定输出比特序列。
通信设备30可以基于第i次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i)和步骤401中获取到的起始位置k 0(i)确定输出比特序列。例如,通信设备30从编码块的第k 0(i)比特开始顺序获取E(i)个比特作为输出比特序列。由于输出比特序列中不包括填充比特,通信设备30从编码块的第k 0(i)比特经过F(i)个比特得到E(i)个比特作为输出比特序列,则其中的填充比特数为F(i)-E(i),因此其结束的位置是k 0(i)+F(i),其中,F(i)为编码块中从k 0(i)开始顺序获取E(i)个输出比特的所需的比特数目,F(i)为大于或者等于0的整数。
例如,通信设备30对初传,也就是第0次传输的输出比特序列进行发送后,收到来自通信设备31的否定应答NACK,则通信设备30需要确定第1次传输的输出比特序列,也就是第1个冗余版本rv(1)的起始位置k 0(1),因此通信设备获取该输出比特序列在存储于循环缓存中的编码块的起始位置k 0(1),基于输出比特序列的长度E(1)及起始位置k 0(1)确定第1次传输的输出比特序列,也就是确定冗余版本rv(1)。通信设备30将输出比特序列rv(1)发送至通信设备31。若通信设备30接收到来自通信设备31的NACK,则通信设备30需要确定第2次传输的输出比特序列,也就是第2个冗余版本rv(2)的起始位置k 0(2),基于输出比特序列的长度E(2)及起始位置k 0(2)确定第2次传输的输出比特序列,也就是确定冗余版本rv(2)。以此类推,直至达到最大重传次数,或者通信设备30收到来自通信设备31的肯定应答ACK,则通信设备可以结束该编码块的重传。当然,通信设备30也可以进行多次重传,而无需考虑来自通信设备31的NACK或者ACK。
接收端通信设备31译码时需要对接收到的初传的软值比特和各冗余版本的软值比特进行合并译码。对于采用LDPC编码的编码块,为了提高接收端通信设备的译码性能则要求减少各冗余版本之间重复或者不发的比特数。
以图5-1所示的一个LDPC编码块为例,假设其核心矩阵打孔前的码率为0.89, 其支持的最低码率为0.33,其中包括信息比特和冗余比特,其中信息比特包括系统位打孔比特和不可打孔的信息比特,冗余比特包括不可打孔的双列重校验比特,可以打孔的双列重校验比特和单列重校验比特。打孔也可以表示为不发送,则打孔比特为不被发送的比特,不可打孔的意味着需要被发送的比特。其中,双列重校验比特对应到校验矩阵中的双对角结构部分的列,也可以说是核心矩阵中的双对角结构部分的列。其中不可打孔的信息比特和不可打孔的双列重校验比特构成的输出比特序列e 0的码率最高。
影响LDPC码的译码性能有多种因素,例如,对LDPC码译码时通常要求除信息位以外的冗余部分按照编码的顺序选择构成码字译码。又例如,LDPC码通过对双列重校验比特打孔来获得比核心矩阵支持的原生码率更高的码率,则重传时需要先重传这些被打孔的双列重校验比特,再发送单列重部分被打孔的校验比特。又例如,重传时,若重复的冗余比特占比越高,译码性能越差。
如图5-2所示,有4个起始位置的取值p 0,p 1,p 2和p 3,初传从第0个起始位置p 0获取输出比特序列,也就是冗余版本0,第1次重传从第2个起始位置p 2获取输出比特序列,也就是冗余版本1,则冗余版本0和冗余版本1之间并不连续,有大量跳过的比特不被传输,尤其是双列重校验比特没有被选择。接收端的通信设备接收到两个冗余版本后进行合并译码。而图5-2中跳过的冗余比特由于没有被传输到接收端通信设备,因此无法先于冗余版本1中冗余比特被选择构成码字译码,极大地损失了译码性能。并且图5-2中跳过的比特也包括了被打孔的双列重校验比特,进一步恶化了译码性能。
如图5-3所示,初传从第0个起始位置p 0获取输出比特序列,也就是冗余版本0,第1次重传从第1个起始位置p 1获取输出比特序列,也就是冗余版本1,则冗余版本0和冗余版本1之间虽然连续,对于初传码率较低的情况,会存在较多的重复比特,也会导致译码性能的损失。
步骤401中k 0(i)可以取值为p k,p k

中的一个,也就是有k max个起始位置的取值。其中,0≤p k<N CB,p k为整数,k为整数,0≤k<k max,N CB为编码块的大小,k max为大于或者等于4的整数。例如,k max=2 n,n为大于或者等于2的整数,或者,k max=Nb,Nb为基矩阵的列数。
其中,p k的下标k可以是冗余版本起始位置的编号rvidx。

又例如,k max=Nb,Nb为基矩阵的列数,由于N CB是基于Nb·z,并经过可能的打孔得到,相邻取值差值可以取为z。对于其中任意一个取值p k,p k=(k·z)mod N CB。例如,以Nb=50,z=4,为例,则

增加k max,可以使得各冗余版本的起始位置间的距离减小,基于该起始位置确定的冗余版本也可以提高接收端的通信设备的译码性能。例如,k max可以为大于4的整 数,如,k max=5,或k max=2 n,k max达到8个及以上,n为大于2的整数,如8个或者16个,又例如,k max=Nb,Nb为编码块的基矩阵的列数。此处只是举例说明,并不以此为限制。
上述方法中,每次传输的冗余版本之间的间隔不会变化较大或者重复的比特较多,可以适应多种初传码率,性能比较稳定。

例如,初传时获取一个高码率的输出比特序列,包括信息比特和不可打孔的双列重校验比特,如图5-1中e 0,则该输出比特序列的长度为E 0=(Nb-Mb+j)*z,其中j为双列重校验比特的个数,或者,不可打孔的双列重校验比特的个数。p m+1可以取值为(Nb-Mb+j)*z。
若p k>(Nb-Mb+j)*z,则p k满足p k-p k-1≤p k+1-p k,其中,m+1<k<k max-1。
若p k<(Nb-Mb+j)*z,以p 0到p m+1之间m个取值中相邻取值差值为

或者,
Figure PCTCN2018074574-appb-000058
若p k=(Nb-Mb+j)*z,也就是p k=p m+1,k=m+1。
该方法可以使得靠近信息比特的位置,起始位置的分布越密集,靠近编码块末位比特,起始位置的分别越稀疏。
以图1中所示的基矩阵为例,其中,Nb=38,Mb=13,z=4,核心矩阵H k中最后4列为双对角结构部分,也就是对应的双列重校验比特的列,则双列重校验比特的个数为4,若其中有2列为不可打孔列,则不可打孔的双列重校验比特的个数为2。若j为双列重校验比特的个数,则E r0=116。若j为不可打孔的双列重校验比特的个数,则E r0=108。以j为不可打孔的双列重校验比特的个数,k max为8,编码块为152比特为例,p 4=E r0=108,p 0=2,则p 0和p 4之间有p 1,p 2,p 3三个取值,相邻两个取值之间的差值为

中的取值p k,步骤401中k 0(i)可以通过多种方式获取。
基于前述第一种实现方式或者第二种实现方式,第三种可能的实现方式中,若i>0,起始位置k 0(i)是基于前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)以及前一次传输的输出比特序列长度E(i-1)确定的。
为了方便描述,将从前一次传输的输出比特序列的结束位置开始至编码块的末位比特(第N CB-1比特)的方向作为向后的方向,将从前一次传输的输出比特序列的结束位置开始至编码块的首位比特(第0比特)的方向作为向前的方向。
例如,为了减少重复冗余比特的数目,可以基于前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)以及前一次传输的输出比特序列长度E(i-1)向后获取起始位置k 0(i)。由于输出比特序列中不包括填充比特,若F(i-1)为编码块中从k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特所需的比特数目,则前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置为(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1)-1)mod N CB。将从前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置向后的方向上的第一个起始位置的取值p k作为k 0(i),若前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置大于

以前述实现方式中{2,28,54,80,108,114,124,138}取值为例,前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)为2,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=25比特,由于其中有5比特的填充比特,因此前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的比特数目F(i-1)为30比特,对于第i次传输的输出比特序列k 0(i),采用本实施例中向后获取起始位置的方法则k 0(i)=54。若前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)为124,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=30比特,其中填充比特数目为0,前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特所需的比特数目为30比特,则k 0(i)=2。需要说明的是,此处仅是举例,并不限于此。
又例如,为了满足顺序译码的要求,基于前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)以及前一次传输的输出比特序列长度E(i-1)向前获取起始位置k 0(i)。由于输出比特序列中不包括填充比特,若F(i-1)为编码块中从k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特所需的比特数目,则前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置为(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1)-1)mod N CB。将从前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置向前的方向上的第一个起始位置的取值 p k作为k 0(i),若前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置小于

仍以前述实施例中{2,28,54,80,108,114,124,138}取值,编码块为152比特为例,前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)为2,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=25比特,由于其中有5比特的填充比特,因此前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特所需的比特数目F(i-1)为30比特,对于第i次传输的输出比特序列k 0(i),采用向前获取起始位置的方法则k 0(i)=28。若前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)为124,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=20比特,由于其中有9比特的填充比特,因此前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的比特数目F(i-1)为29比特,则k 0(i)=138。需要说明的是,此处仅是举例,并不限于此。
又例如,为了平衡重复比特和缺失冗余比特在译码在性能上的损失,可以结合前述两个例子中向前获取k 0(i)和向后获取k 0(i)的结果,将两者中与前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置差值最小的取值作为k 0(i)。若

两者之中与((k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB)之间差值最小的值。在一种可能的实现方式中,可以先确定出p k+和p k-,其中,p k+为从前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置向后的方向上的第一个起始位置的取值,p k-为从前一次获取输出比特序列的结束位置向前的方向上的第一个起始位置的取值,则p k为p k+和p k-之中与((k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB)之间差值最小的取值。若p k+和p k-与((k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB)之间差值相等,则可以任意或者按照确定取值方向从两者之中选择。
仍以前述实施例中{2,28,54,80,108,114,124,138}取值,编码块长为152比特为例,前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)为2,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=26比特,前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的比特数目F(i-1)为30比特。对于第i次传输的输出比特序列k 0(i),采用本实施例中方法获取起始位置则k 0(i)=28,若k 0(i-1)为124比特,前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)=29比特,前一次从编码块中k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的 比特数目F(i-1)为30比特。则向后方向获取的取值为p 0=2,两者之间差值为1,向前方向获取的取值为p 7=138,两者之间差值为15,则k 0(i)=p 0=2。需要说明的是,此处仅是举例,并不限于此。
又例如,为了平衡重复比特和缺失冗余比特在译码在性能上的损失,也可以基于传输次数i与获取起始位置k 0(i)的方向的对应关系确定第i次传输的起始位置k 0(i)的获取方向,基于前一次传输的输出比特序列的结束位置以及所确定的获取起始位置k 0(i)的方向获取起始位置k 0(i)。可以在通信设备中设置传输次数i和起始位置k 0(i)获取方向的表,例如,如表1,最大重传次数为3,初传不需要设置获取方式,

仍以前述实施例中{2,28,54,80,108,114,124,138}取值,编码块长为152比特为例,初传的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(0)为2,初传的输出比特序列的长度E(0)=20比特,填充比特数为10比特,则F(0)=30比特。假设每次获取输出比特序列时填充比特数相等,每次传输的输出比特序列长度也相等,采用上述表1中的对应关系获取起始位置,对于第1次传输的输出比特序列向后获取起始位置k 0(1),则k 0(1)=54,对于第2次传输的输出比特序列向前获取起始位置k 0(2)=80,对于第3次传输的输出比特序列获取起始位置k 0(3)=108。需要说明的是,此处仅是举例,并不限于此。
获取方向中“向前”和“向后”可以通过特定的数值指示,并不限定于字面的表达方式,例如0为“向前”,1为“向后”,或者其他数值表达方式。传输次数i和起始位置k 0(i)获取方向的对应关系也可以通过其他形式来定义,本发明实施例并不限于此。
基于传输次数i可以确定第i次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置的获取方向,基于第i次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置的获取方向,以及前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)以及前一次传输的输出比特序列长度E(i-1)向前获取起始位置k 0(i)。
基于前述第一种实现方式或者第二种实现方式,在第四种可能的实现方式中,可以定义每次传输时获取的起始位置的顺序,也可以定义每次传输时p k的下标k的取值顺序。这一顺序可以指示给接收端的通信设备,也可以预先在收发两端通信设备中存储。
其中,p k的下标k可以是冗余版本起始位置的编号rv idx,第i次传输的冗余版本起始位置的编号可以表示为rv idx(i),起始位置k 0(i)可以是基于冗余版本起始位置的编号rv idx(i mod k max)确定的。
可以采用固定顺序的起始位置获取方法,在一个实施例中,可以定义rv idx的取值顺序,取值顺序中的值的个数可以是k max,也可以为最大重传次数R max,例如,k max=8 时,rv idx的取值顺序依次为0,3,6,2,5,7,4,1。则初传时,从第p 0比特开始确定输出比特序列,第1次传输k 0(1)=p 3,从第p 3比特开始确定输出比特序列,第2次传输k 0(2)=p 6,从第p 6比特开始确定输出比特序列,以此类推,第k max次传输时,则又回到从第p 0比特开始确定输出比特序列。也就是对于第i次传输,k=rv idx(i mod k max),k 0(i)=p k。又例如,最大重传次数R max=3,rv idx的取值顺序集合为{0,2,3,1},则初传时,从第p 0比特开始确定输出比特序列,第1次传输k 0(1)=p 2,从第p 3比特开始确定输出比特序列,第2次传输k 0(2)=p 3。对于第i次传输,k=rv idx(i mod R max),k 0(i)=p k
进一步地,rv idx的取值顺序也可以根据初传码率的大小确定,也可以基于每次传输的输出比特序列的长度E和扩展因子z确定。在非自适应重传场景下,初传和重传的输出比特序列的长度是相等的,例如基于
Figure PCTCN2018074574-appb-000081
确定rv idx的取值顺序。
例如,以k max=8,采用66*82的LDPC矩阵,其中信息位列数为16,对于编码块,rv idx的取值顺序和初传码率的对应关系可以参见表2,例如R 0≥0.8,rv idx取值顺序为{0,2,4,6}。
表2
初传码率R 0 rv idx的取值顺序
R 0≥0.8 0,2,4,6
0.53≤R 0<0.8 0,3,6,2
R 0<0.53 0,4,2,6
又例如,以k max=8,采用66*82的LDPC矩阵,其中信息位列数为16,对于编码块,rv idx的取值顺序和初传码率的对应关系可以参见表3,例如
Figure PCTCN2018074574-appb-000082
rv idx取值顺序为{0,3,6,2}。
表3
Figure PCTCN2018074574-appb-000083
这一方式适用于非自适应性重传,起始位置的信息不需要在每次发送前指示给接收端通信设备。
也可以基于发送端通信设备所指示的rv idx获取输出比特序列在编码块中的起始位置k 0(i)。这一方式适用于自适应重传。
在第五种可能的实现方式中,对于重传,即i>0,第i次传输的输出比特序列和第i-1次传输的输出比特序列首尾相连。在这种方式下,k 0(i)是根据前一次传输的输出比特序列的起始位置k 0(i-1)和前一次传输的输出比特序列的长度E(i-1)确定的,由于输出比特序列中不包括填充比特,因此根据k 0(i-1)和E(i-1)可以得到F(i-1),F(i-1)为编码块中从k 0(i-1)开始顺序获取E(i-1)个输出比特的所需的比特数目,则k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB。在这种方式下,相邻两次传输的输出比特序列是连续的,并且两者之间没有重复的比特,这样的输出比特序列发送至接收端的通信设备,可以达到较佳的译码性能。
进一步地,基于首尾相连的重传方式,还可以在编码块的所有比特被传输过一遍之后,每次重传增加偏移量E offset,也就是k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1)+E offset)mod N CB。在这种方式下,若编码块中的末位比特已被传输,则k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1)+E offset)mod N CB,否则,k 0(i)=(k 0(i-1)+F(i-1))mod N CB。这样,所有比特被传输后,通过每次在重传中增加偏移量,使得重复的比特数减少,减少译码性能的损失。
可选地,在前述信息处理方法之后,所述通信设备还可以对所述输出比特序列进行处理,使得在发送或接收时使用该输出比特序列,例如,对输出比特序列进行交织,并映射为调制符号等处理等等。这些处理可以参照现有技术中的相应处理方法,此处不再赘述。
