具体实施方式
为使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
LTE/LTE-A通信系统通常包括基站和UE,基站与UE之间可以进行信息传输,且基站与UE之间的通信分为上行通信和下行通信,在下行通信中,基站与UE之间传输的信息可以包括下行数据信息和下行控制信息。
在下行通信中,基站可以将数据信息封装在无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)信令中,并通过物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Share Channel,PDSCH)向UE发送RRC信令,基站可以将控制信息(例如调度信息)封装在DCI中,然后将DCI承载在PDCCH上,并通过PDCCH向UE发送DCI。其中,控制信息用于指示数据信息所占 用的时频资源,UE通过盲检测PDCCH接收DCI,进而对DCI进行解调、译码得到DCI中的控制信息,并根据控制信息确定数据信息所占用的时频资源,进而在数据信息所占用的时频资源上实现数据信息的接收。由此可知,DCI对可靠性的要求非常高,只有在DCI正确译码的前提下,UE才能够准确获得数据信息所占用的时频资源。
一个PDCCH通常占用多个控制信道元素(Control Channel Element,CCE),PDCCH通常包括公共(Common)搜索空间和用户设备专用(UE specific)搜索空间,公共搜索空间中承载的DCI为公共DCI,该公共DCI中的信息通常主要是系统信息、系统信息的更新信息、寻呼信息等等,用户设备专用搜索空间中承载的DCI为UE specific DCI,UE specific DCI中的信息主要为UE特定的相关调度信息。基站可以根据信道质量等因素决定某个PDCCH所占用的CCE的数量,以及该PDCCH的公共搜索空间和用户设备专用搜索空间所占用的CCE的数量,UE在盲检测PDCCH时,可以在公共搜索空间和用户设备专用搜索空间中的所有可能的CCE上进行盲检测,当UE盲检测到自己的DCI后进一步解出该DCI的内容。
需要说明的是,LTE/LTE-A通信系统中,在一个调度周期内,每个UE仅有一个UE-specific DCI,UE在盲检测的过程中,一旦盲检测到自己的UE-specific DCI就会终止盲检测。若在一个调度周期内,存在多个基站同时对一个UE进行调度,则该多个基站可以采用协作调度的方式对该UE进行调度,相应的LTE/LTE-A通信系统也即是多点协作(Coordinate Multi-point,CoMP)或进一步增强多点协作(Futher enhancement CoMP,FeCoMP)通信系统,CoMP/FeCoMP通信系统无论是在上行通信还是下行通信中,都能够提高通信系统的性能,尤其能够改善小区边缘的频谱效率。
在CoMP/FeCoM通信系统中,调度同一个UE的多个基站中的一个基站为服务基站,其余基站都为协作基站,协作基站可以通过回程链路将自身对UE的调度信息发送给服务基站,然后由服务基站将接收到的调度信息和自身对UE的调度信息都封装在DCI中,并按照一定的规则将DCI映射到PDCCH上,通过PDCCH向UE发送DCI,UE可以选择DCI格式(format)对PDCCH中可能的CCE进行盲检测,当UE盲检测到自身的DCI后,UE终止盲检测,并根据盲检测到的DCI得到调度信息,之后UE可以根据调度信息接收数据信息。示例地,如图1所示,其示出了一种CoMP/FeCoMP通信系统的示意图,参见图1,基站001和基站002为同一调度周期内调度UE-003的两个基站,基站001为服务基站,基站002为协作基站,基站002通过回程链路将自身对UE-003的调度信息发送给基站001,基站001接收到该调度信息后,将该调度信息和自身对UE-003的调度信息整合在一起并封装在DCI中,并通过PDCCH发送给UE-003,UE-003通过盲检测PDCCH接收该DCI,进而根据该DCI确定调度信息,该调度信息可以包括基站001的调度信息和基站002的调度信息,确定调度信息后,UE-003可以根据该调度信息确定调度资源,并根据该调度资源接收基站001和基站002发送的数据(DATA)信息。但是,由于回程链路的传输时延通常大于一个调度周期,因此在CoMP/FeCoMP通信系统中,服务基站与UE之间交互的信息可能为过时(无效)的信息。
为了克服CoMP/FeCoMP通信系统中存在的问题,且实现在同一个调度周期内,多个基站可以对同一个UE进行调度,在5G通信的讨论中:在同一个调度周期内调度同一个UE的多个基站可以独立地向该UE发送下行控制信息(例如LTE中的DCI),此时,会存 在多个针对该UE的下行控制信息,在这种情况下,如果UE盲检测到一个属于自己的一个下行控制信息后终止盲检测,则可能会存在下行控制信息漏检的情况;如果UE盲检测到属于自己的一个下行控制信息后继续盲检测,则由于UE不知道可能的下行控制信息的数量,UE需要盲检测所有可能的CCE,此时盲检测的复杂度很高。
请参考图2,其示出了本发明各个实施例所涉及的一种实施环境的结构示意图,该实施环境包括:网络侧设备、多个传输接收点(Transmitting and Receiving Point,TRP)设备和多个用户设备,网络侧设备与多个TRP设备中的每个TRP设备建立有通信连接,多个TRP设备可以与多个用户设备建立有通信连接,且每个TRP设备可以与多个用户设备中的至少一个用户设备连接,每个用户设备可以与多个TRP设备中的至少一个TRP设备连接,网络侧设备能够对多个TRP设备以及多个用户设备进行控制、管理。在本申请实施环境中:
网络侧设备可以为网络控制器、网络管理器等。
TRP设备例如但不限于全球移动通信(Global System for Mobile Communication,GSM)系统中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统中的NB(NodeB),LTE中的演进型基站(evolved Node B,eNB)、中继站、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G通信系统中的接入网设备或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)网络中的接入网设备。
用户设备可以为一般意义上的UE,此外,用户设备也可以为移动台、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置等。用户设备可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的移动台或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的终端设备等。此外,用户设备还可以包括中继(Relay)等其他能够和接入网设备通信的设备。
如图2所示,本申请实施环境以网络侧设备为网络控制器01,以TRP设备为基站且多个基站包括基站021、基站022和基站023,以用户设备为UE且多个UE包括UE-031、UE-032和UE-033为例进行说明。在本申请中,多个基站可以对多个UE进行调度,且在一个调度周期内,一个基站可以对至少一个UE(例如两个UE)进行调度,至少一个基站(例如三个基站)可以对同一个UE进行调度,基站在对UE进行调度时,可以向UE发送调度信息,具体实施时,基站可以将调度信息封装在下行控制信息中,并通过PDCCH向UE发送下行控制信息,UE通过盲检测PDCCH来对下行控制信息进行接收,进而实现对调度信息的接收。
本申请主要介绍在一个调度周期内,至少一个基站对同一个UE进行调度的情况。本申请实施环境以基站021、基站022和基站023对UE-031进行调度为例进行说明,具体地:
网络控制器01可以预测预设时间段内调度UE-031的基站的最大数量,然后将该最大数量发送给在该预设时间段内调度UE-031的任一基站(例如发送给基站021),基站021可以根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息,然后向UE-031发送该数量指示信息,该数量指示信息用于指示在预设时间段内针对同一个UE(例如UE-031)的下行控制信息的最大数量,UE-031在接收到该数量指示信息后,可以根据该数量指示信息接收下行控制信息,其中, UE-031根据该数量指示信息接收的下行控制信息可以是来自至少一个基站的下行控制信息。在本申请实施环境中,由于基站021、基站022和基站023对UE-031进行调度,因此,网络控制器01预测的最大数量为3,基站021生成的数量指示信息指示的针对UE-031的下行控制信息的最大数量为3,UE-031在根据该数量指示信息接收下行控制信息时,可以对PDCCH进行盲检测,当盲检测到的下行控制信息的数量等于该数量指示信息指示的数量(例如3)时,UE-031终止盲检测,此时,UE-031盲检测到的下行控制信息是来自基站021、基站022和基站023中的至少一个基站的下行控制信息。
请参考图3,其示出了本发明实施例提供的一种信息传输方法的方法流程图,该信息传输方法可以用于图2所示实施环境,参见图3,该信息传输方法可以包括:
步骤301、基站生成数量指示信息,数量指示信息用于指示下行控制信息的最大数量。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以获取预设时间段内调度同一个用户设备的基站的最大数量,然后根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息,该数量指示信息用于指示下行控制信息的最大数量,且其具体指的是预设时间段内针对同一个用户设备的下行控制信息的最大数量。其中,下行控制信息例如LTE中的DCI,基站可以为图2所示实施环境中的任一基站,用户设备可以为图2所示实施环境中的任一UE,本发明实施例以基站为图2所示实施环境中的基站021,用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031为例进行说明,则基站021可以获取预设时间段调度UE-031的基站的最大数量,然后根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息,该数量指示信息用于指示该预设时间段内针对UE-031的下行控制信息的最大数量。需要说明的是,基站021可以是在该预设时间段内调度UE-031的基站,也可以不是在该预设时间段内调度UE-031的基站,本发明实施例对此不作限定。可选地,基站021是在该预设时间段内调度UE-031的基站。其中,该预设时间段为用户设备当前接收到数量指示信息的时刻与下一次接收到数量指示信息的时刻之间的时间段,由此可知,该预设时间段通常是变化的,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
可选地,在本发明实施例中,下行控制信息可以是来自至少一个基站的下行控制信息,当下行控制信息来至少两个基站时,该数量指示信息用于指示来自该至少两个基站的下行控制信息的最大数量之和。
可选地,在本发明实施例中,下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的至少一种,公共下行控制信息通常承载在PDCCH的公共搜索空间中,其可以为系统信息、系统信息的更新信息、寻呼信息等等,用户设备专用下行控制信息通常承载在PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间中,其通常为用户设备特定的相关调度信息。
在本发明实施例中,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的任意一种下行控制信息时,该数量指示信息用于指示该任意一种下行控制信息的最大数量,且具体用于指示预设时间段内针对同一个用户设备的该任意一种下行控制信息的最大数量。例如,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息,该数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的公共下行控制信息的最大数量为3;再例如,当下行控制信息包括用户设备专用下行控制信息,该数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的用户设备专用下行 控制信息的最大数量为3。
在本发明实施例中,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息时,本发明实施例中的数量指示信息可以包括下述两种可能的实现方案:
(1)、数量指示信息用于指示公共下行控制信息的最大数量和用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量。具体地:该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对同一个用户设备的公共下行控制信息的最大数量和用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的公共下行控制信息的最大数量和用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量都为3。
(2)、数量指示信息用于指示公共下行控制信息的最大数量与用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量之和。具体地:该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对同一个用户设备的公共下行控制信息的最大数量与用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量之和。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的公共下行控制信息的最大数量与用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量之和为3。
需要说明的是,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息时,数量指示信息指示的上述两种方案仅仅是示例性的,实际应用中,还可以根据需要设置其他的方案,例如,数量指示信息中可以包括公共指示信息和专用指示信息,公共指示信息用于公共下行控制信息的最大数量,专用指示信息用于指示用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量。示例地,数量指示信息以及其指示的最大数量可以如下表1所示:

专用数量指示信息 2
参见表1,数量指示信息包括公共数量指示信息和专用数量指示信息,公共数量指示信息指示的最大数量为1,表示预设时间段内针对同一用户设备(例如UE-031)的公共下行控制信息的最大数量为1;专用数量指示信息指示的最大数量为2,表示预设时间段内针对同一用户设备(例如UE-031)的用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量为1。
还需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,网络控制器可以对基站进行管理,并与自身所管理的各个基站进行交互,以确定各个基站所调度的用户设备,进而统计并预测预设时间段内调度每个用户设备的基站的最大数量,并向任一基站发送该最大数量,使得该任一基站能够根据接收到的最大数量生成数量指示信息,并向用户设备发送相应的数量指示信息。以图1所示实施环境为例进行说明,网络控制器01可以与基站021、基站022和基站023中的每个基站进行交互,确定该每个基站所调度的UE,进而统计预测预设时间段内调度每个UE的基站的最大数量,并将该最大数量发给任一基站,例如,网络控制器01统计预测预设时间段内调度UE-032的基站的最大数量,并将该最大数量发送给基站021,使得基站021根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息。其中,网络控制器向基站发送最大数量时,还可以向基站发送相应的用户设备的相关信息,以便于基站能够向相应的用户设备发送数量指示 信息。例如,网络控制器01向基站021发送最大数量时,可以将UE-032的相关信息也发送给基站021,以使得基站021能够根据UE-032的相关信息向UE-032发送相应的数量指示信息。
还需要说明的是,当数量指示信息为如表1所示的数量指示信息时,网络控制器在向基站发送最大数量时,可以向基站发送公共下行控制信息的最大数量和用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量,以使得基站能够生成表1所示的数量指示信息,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
步骤302、基站向用户设备发送数量指示信息。
基站生成数量指示信息后,可以向用户设备发送数量指示信息。可选地,基站可以通过链路层信令向用户设备发送数量指示信息,该链路层信令可以包括数据链路层信令或无线链路层信令。其中,数据链路层信令可以为L2信令,又称为介质访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层信令,无线链路层信令可以为L3信令,又称为RRC信令。可选地,基站将数量指示信息承载在链路层信令中,并向用户设备发送链路层信令,以实现对数量指示信息的发送。
示例地,该步骤302继续以基站为图2所示实施环境中的基站021,用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031为例进行说明,则基站021可以通过链路层信令向UE-031发送数量指示信息。
需要说明的是,一个调度周期的时长通常为传输时间间隔(Transmission Time Interval,TTI),其时长较短,容易导致基站与用户设备交互的信息失效,本发明实施例中,基站通过数据链路层信令或无线链路层信令向用户设备发送数量指示信息,数据链路层信令和无线链路层信令的更新周期都较长,且通常大于一个调度周期,因此,基站通过数据链路层信令或无线链路层信令向用户设备发送数量指示信息可以避免基站与用户设备交互的信息失效,保证交互信息的有效性。
步骤303、用户设备接收基站发送的数量指示信息。
基站向用户设备发送数量指示信息时,用户设备可以接收基站发送的数量指示信息,该数量指示信息用于指示下行控制信息的最大数量,且具体可以指示预设时间段内针对该用户设备(该步骤303的执行主体)的下行控制信息的最大数量。其中,关于数量指示信息的详细描述可以参考步骤301,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
可选地,与步骤302对应,用户设备可以接收基站通过链路层信令发送的数量指示信息,该链路层信令可以包括数据链路层信令或无线链路层信令。其中,数据链路层信令可以为L2信令,又称为MAC层信令,无线链路层信令可以为L3信令,又称为RRC信令。可选地,用户设备接收基站发送的链路层信令,对该链路层信令进行解析得到数量指示信息。示例地,与步骤302对应,UE-031接收基站021可以通过链路层信令发送数量指示信息。
步骤304、用户设备根据数量指示信息接收下行控制信息。
用户设备接收到数量指示信息后,可以根据数量指示信息接收下行控制信息。可选地,下行控制信息通常承载在PDCCH上,因此,用户设备根据数量指示信息接收下行控制信息可以包括:用户设备根据数量指示信息对PDCCH进行盲检测。需要说明的是,该步骤304中的下行控制信息可以包括但不限于上述步骤302中的基站发送的下行控制信息,且该下 行控制信息可以来自至少一个基站,例如,该步骤304中的下行控制信息可以包括图2所示实施环境中的基站021、基站022和基站023发送的下行控制信息。该步骤304以用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031为例进行说明。
可选地,在本发明实施例中,下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的至少一种,公共下行控制信息通常承载在PDCCH的公共搜索空间中,其可以为系统信息、系统信息的更新信息、寻呼信息等等,用户设备专用下行控制信息通常承载在PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间中,其通常为用户设备特定的相关调度信息。
在本发明实施例中,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的任意一种下行控制信息时,该数量指示信息用于指示该任意一种下行控制信息的最大数量,且具体用于指示预设时间段内针对该用户设备(该步骤304的执行主体)的该任意一种下行控制信息的最大数量,用户设备可以根据数量指示信息对PDCCH中该任意一种下行控制信息所在的搜索空间进行盲检测,以对相应的下行控制信息进行接收。例如,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息,该数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且该用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的公共下行控制信息的最大数量为3,UE-031可以根据数量指示信息对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,直至盲检测到3个公共下行控制信息,UE-031终止盲检测,或者,UE-031在盲检测的过程中盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于3,则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,UE-031终止盲检测;再例如,当下行控制信息包括用户设备专用下行控制信息,该数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且该用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量为3,UE-031可以根据数量指示信息对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,直至盲检测到3个用户设备专用下行控制信息,UE-031终止盲检测,或者,如果在盲检测的过程中UE-031盲检测到的用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量始终小于3,则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间的所有CCE之后,UE-031终止盲检测。
在本发明实施例中,当下行控制信息包括公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息时,本发明实施例中的数量指示信息包括的两种可能的实现方案可以如步骤301所述,针对该两种可能的实现方案,用户设备根据数量指示信息接收下行控制信息可以包括下述两种可能的实现方案:

1D)、用户设备对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,如果用户设备盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于数量指示信息指示的数量,则用户设备盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,用户设备终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,当用户设备盲检测到数量指示信息指示的数量个用户设备专用下行控制信息时,用户设备终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,UE-031可以先对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,如果UE-031盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于3,则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,UE-031终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,当UE-031盲检测到3个用户设备专用下行控制信息时, UE-031终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。
(2)、数量指示信息用于指示公共下行控制信息的最大数量与用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量之和。具体地:该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对同一个用户设备的公共下行控制信息的最大数量与用户设备专用下行控制信息的最大数量之和。用户设备可以先根据数量指示信息对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,以对公共下行控制信息进行接收,然后根据数量指示信息对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,以对用户设备专用下行控制信息进行接收。在该第(2)种可能的实现方案中,可以包括下述三种情况:
2A)、用户设备对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,如果用户设备盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于数量指示信息指示的数量,则用户设备盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,用户设备终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,当用户设备盲检测到的用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量与公共下行控制信息的数量之和等于数量指示信息指示的数量时,用户设备终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,UE-031可以先对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,如果UE-031盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于3(例如盲检测到0、1或2个公共下行控制信息),则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,UE-031终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,当UE-031盲检测到的用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量(例如,盲检测到3、2或1个用户设备专用下行控制信息)与公共下行控制信息的数量之和等于数量指示信息指示的数量时,UE-031终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。
2B)、用户设备对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,如果用户设备盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于数量指示信息指示的数量,则用户设备盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,用户设备终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,如果在对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,用户设备盲检测到的用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量与公共下行控制信息的数量之和始终小于数量指示信息指示的数量,则用户设备盲检测完PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间的所有CCE之后,终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,UE-031可以先对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,如果UE-031盲检测到的公共下行控制信息的数量始终小于3(例如,盲检测到0、1或2个公共下行控制信息),则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的公共搜索空间的所有CCE之后,UE-031终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,并对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,如果在对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,UE-031盲检测到的用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量与公共下行控制信息的数量之和始终小于3,则UE-031盲检测完PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间的所有CCE之后,终止对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。
2C)、用户设备对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测的过程中,当用户设备盲检测到 数量指示信息指示的数量个公共下行控制信息时,用户设备终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,且不再对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。例如,当数量指示信息指示的数量为3,且用户设备为图2所示实施环境中的UE-031时,UE-031可以先对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,当UE-031盲检测到3个公共下行控制信息时,UE-031终止对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,且不再对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测。
可选地,在本发明实施例中,PDCCH可以包括多个控制信道区域,该多个控制信道可以位于不同的子带上,用户设备可以同时对该多个控制信道区域进行监听,则用户设备在对PDCCH进行盲检测时,可以采用串行盲检测的方式或并行盲检测的方式对该多个控制信道区域进行盲检测。可选地,用户设备可以先确定自身的计算能力,当自身的计算能力较强时,用户设备可以采用并行盲检测的方式对该多个控制信道区域进行盲检测,当自身的计算能力较弱时,用户设备可以采用串行盲检测的方式对该多个控制信道区域进行盲检测。需要说明的是,每个控制信道区域中可以包括多个CCE,在采用并行盲检测的方式对多个控制信道区域进行盲检测时,在每个控制信道区域内,用户设备采用串行盲检测的方式对该每个控制信道区域中的CCE进行盲检测,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
可选地,在本发明实施例中,PDCCH包括多个控制信道区域,控制信道区域通常可以按照频率划分,从而该多个控制信道可以位于不同的子带上,针对同一个用户设备的多个下行控制信息可以位于同一个控制信道区域上,也可以位于不同的控制信道区域上,也即是,针对同一个用户设备的多个下行控制信息可以位于同一子带上,也可以位于不同的子带上。示例地,请参考图4,其示出了本发明实施例提供的一种下行控制信息的分布示意图,参见图4,PDCCH(图4中未示出)包括控制信道区域041,该控制信道区域041可以位于一个子带上,针对同一用户设备(例如UE-031)的两个下行控制信息位于该控制信道区域041上,UE-031可以根据数量指示信息指示的下行控制信息的数量对图4中的控制信道区域041进行盲检测,以对该两个下行控制信息进行接收,当UE-031盲检测到2个下行控制信息时,UE-031终止盲检测。示例地,请参考图5,其示出了本发明实施例提供的另一种下行控制信息的分布示意图,参见图5,PDCCH(图5中未示出)包括控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045,该控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045位于不同的子带上,针对同一用户设备(例如UE-031)的两个下行控制信息分别位于控制信道区域042和控制信道区域043上,假设UE-031同时对该控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045进行监听,则UE-031在对PDCCH进行盲检测时,可以采用串行盲检测的方式对控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045依次进行盲检测,也可以采用并行盲检测的方式对控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045同时进行盲检测,本发明实施例对此不作限定。例如,UE-031采用串行盲检测的方式对控制信道区域042、控制信道区域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045依次进行盲检测,当UE-031盲检测到2个下行控制信息时,UE-031终止盲检测且不再对其他控制信道区域进行盲检测,如图5所示,UE-031在控制信道区域043中盲检测到下行控制信息时,UE-031终止盲检测,不再对控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045进行盲检测;再例如,UE-031采用并行盲检测的方式对控制信道区域042、控制信道区 域043、控制信道区域044和控制信道区域045同时进行盲检测,当UE-031盲检测到2个下行控制信息时,UE-031终止盲检测而不再对所有控制信道区域进行盲检测。需要说明的是,该图4和图5是以下行控制信息为LTE中的DCI为例进行说明的,本领域技术人员应当明白,在5G通信系统中,下行控制信息还可以为其他的下行控制信息,该图4和图5不能理解为对本发明实施例方案的限制。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,数量指示信息可以具有一个缺省值,当用户设备接收到数量指示信息时,用户设备根据接收到的数量指示信息指示的下行控制信息的最大数量接收下行控制信息;当用户设备未接收到数量指示信息时,用户设备可以根据数量指示信息的缺省值接收下行控制信息。可选地,在本发明实施例中,数量指示信息的缺省值可以为1,也即是,当用户设备未接收到数量指示信息时,用户设备默认下行控制信息的最大数量为1,用户设备盲检测到1个下行控制信息时,终止盲检测。
还需要说明的是,本发明实施例是以用户设备先对PDCCH的公共搜索空间进行盲检测,再对PDCCH的用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测进行盲检测为例进行说明的,实际应用中,用户设备还可以按照其他顺序或盲检测方法对PDCCH的公共搜索空间和用户设备专用搜索空间进行盲检测,本发明实施例不对用户设备盲检测的检测方法和检测顺序作限定。
本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法,用户设备能够根据基站发送的数量指示信息进行对PDCCH进行盲检测以对下行控制信息进行接收,当用户设备盲检测到数量指示信息指示的数量个下行控制信息时,用户设备终止盲检测。通过该方案,本发明实施例一方面可以避免下行控制信息漏检的情况,另一方面可以避免由于用户设备需要对PDCCH的所有CCE进行盲检测所导致的盲检测复杂度较高的问题。且本发明实施例无需协作基站向服务基站发送调度信息,可以避免回程链路的传输时延较长导致的基站与用户设备交互的信息过时的情况。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法,基站生成数量指示信息并向用户设备发送数量指示信息,该数量指示信息用于指示下行控制信息的最大数量,用户设备根据数量指示信息接收下行控制信息,可以解决用户设备盲检测的复杂度较高的问题,降低用户设备盲检测的复杂度。
本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法,基站通过向用户设备发送数量指示信息,使用户设备根据该数量指示信息优化盲检测过程,减少盲检测的次数,降低用户设备的复杂度。
本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法可以支持不同传输方案之间的切换,还可以支持同一传输方案中基站数量不同的场景之间的切换,具体请参考下述图6至图8所示实施例。
请参考图6,其示出了本发明实施例提供的一种传输方案的切换示意图,参见图6,在T1时刻,仅基站021对UE-031进行调度,基站022不对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量为1,该T1时刻对应的传输方案可以为单基站(或者说单TRP)传输方案;在T2时刻,基站021和基站022同时对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量为2,该T2时刻对应的传输方案可以为多基站(或者说多TRP)传输方案,根据T1时刻调度UE-031的基站的数量的变化,下行控制信息的数量也发生了变化。
本发明实施例中,网络控制器(图6中未示出)可以与基站021和基站022交互,统计并预计预设时间段(该预设时间段包括T1时刻和T2时刻)内调度UE-031的基站的最大 数量,然后向基站021(或基站022)发送该最大数量,基站021接收到该最大数量后,根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息并通过链路层信令(例如L2信令或L3信令)向UE-031发送该数量指示信息,使UE-031根据该数量指示信息对PDCCH进行盲检测,其中,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的下行控制信息的最大数量,该下行控制信息可以为公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的至少一种,本实施例以该下行控制信息为用户设备专用下行控制信息为例进行说明,当下行控制信息为LTE中的DCI时,下行控制信息的最大数量可以采用MAX_DCI_NUM来表示,在该图6所示实施例中,MAX_DCI_NUM=2,表示用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量为2,由于MAX_DCI_NUM=2,因此在T1时刻,UE-031盲检测到1个用户设备专用下行控制信息后继续盲检测,直到盲检测完PDCCH中所有可能的CCE,而在T2时刻,UE-031在盲检测到2个用户设备专用下行控制信息时即终止盲检测。
此外,在该图6所示实施例中,T1时刻对应的传输方案为单基站传输方案,T2时刻对应的传输方案为多基站传输方案,由于传输方案发生了变化,因此,本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法支持单基站传输方案与多基站传输方案之间的切换。
请参考图7,其示出了本发明实施例提供的另一种传输方案的切换示意图,参见图7,在T1时刻,基站021、基站022和基站023采用非相干联合传输(Non-coherent Joint Transmission,NC-JT)方案对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量可以为3;在T2时刻,仅由基站022采用调度协作/波束协作(Coordinated Scheduling/Coordinated Beamforming,CS/CB)方案或动态协作点选择(Dynamic Point Selection,DPS)方案对UE-031进行调度,基站021不对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量可以为1。由此可知,从T1时刻到T2时刻,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量也发生了变化,且下行控制信息的数量由T1时刻的3变化为T2时刻的1。
本发明实施例中,网络控制器(图7中未示出)可以与基站021、基站022和基站023交互,统计并预计预设时间段(该预设时间段包括T1时刻和T2时刻)内调度UE-031的基站的最大数量,然后向基站022(或基站021、基站023)发送该最大数量,基站022接收到该最大数量后,根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息并通过链路层信令(例如L2信令或L3信令)向UE-031发送该数量指示信息,使UE-031根据该数量指示信息对PDCCH进行盲检测,其中,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的下行控制信息的最大数量,该下行控制信息可以为公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的至少一种,本实施例以该下行控制信息为用户设备专用下行控制信息为例进行说明,当下行控制信息为LTE中的DCI时,下行控制信息的最大数量可以采用MAX_DCI_NUM来表示,在该图7所示实施例中,MAX_DCI_NUM=3,表示用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量为3,由于MAX_DCI_NUM=3,因此在T1时刻,UE-031盲检测到3个用户设备专用下行控制信息时终止盲检测,而在T2时刻,UE-031对PDCCH进行盲检测直至盲检测完PDCCH中所有可能的CCE。
此外,在该图7所示实施例中,T1时刻对应的传输方案为NC-JT方案,T2时刻对应的传输方案为CS/CB方案或DPS方案,该NC-JT方案、CS/CB方案和DPS方案都为协作传输方案,因此,本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法支持不同协作传输方案之间的切换。
请参考图8,其示出了本发明实施例提供的同一传输方案中基站数量不同的场景之间的 切换示意图,参见图8,在T1时刻,基站021和基站022采用NC-JT方案对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量可以为2;在T2时刻,基站021、基站022和基站023采用NC-JT方案对UE-031进行调度,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量可以为3。由此可知,从T1时刻到T2时刻,针对UE-031的下行控制信息的数量也发生了变化,且下行控制信息的数量由T1时刻的2变化为T2时刻的3。
本发明实施例中,网络控制器(图8中未示出)可以与基站021、基站022和基站023交互,统计并预计预设时间段(该预设时间段包括T1时刻和T2时刻)内调度UE-031的基站的最大数量,然后向基站021(或基站022、基站023)发送该最大数量,基站021接收到该最大数量后,根据该最大数量生成数量指示信息并通过链路层信令(例如L2信令或L3信令)向UE-031发送该数量指示信息,使UE-031根据该数量指示信息对PDCCH进行盲检测,其中,该数量指示信息用于指示预设时间段内针对UE-031的下行控制信息的最大数量,该下行控制信息可以为公共下行控制信息和用户设备专用下行控制信息中的至少一种,本实施例以该下行控制信息为用户设备专用下行控制信息为例进行说明,当下行控制信息为LTE中的DCI时,下行控制信息的最大数量可以采用MAX_DCI_NUM来表示,在该图8所示实施例中,MAX_DCI_NUM=3,表示用户设备专用下行控制信息的数量为3,由于MAX_DCI_NUM=3,因此在T1时刻,UE-031对PDCCH进行盲检测直至盲检测完PDCCH中所有可能的CCE,而在T2时刻,UE-031盲检测到3个用户设备专用下行控制信息时终止盲检测。
此外,在该图8所示实施例中,T1时刻对应的传输方案和T2时刻对应的传输方案都为NC-JT方案,而T1时刻的场景为2个基站同时对UE-031进行调度的场景,T2时刻的场景为3个基站同时对UE-031进行调度的场景,因此,本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法可以支持同一协作传输方案中基站数量不同的场景之间的切换。
需要说明的是,在图6至图8所示实施例中,如果基站没有向UE-031发送数量指示信息,则在T1时刻和T2时刻,UE-031都需要盲检测完PDCCH中所有可能的CCE,盲检测的复杂度较高,本发明实施例通过向UE-031发送数量指示信息,可以降低盲检测的复杂度。
在未来的5G通信系统中,随着移动通信的快速发展,在系统容量,瞬时峰值速率,频谱效率,小区边缘用户吞吐量以及时延等诸多方面有了更高的要求,目前CoMP/FeCoMP技术无论是在上行通信还是下行通信,都能够提高系统性能,尤其是改善小区边缘的频谱效率,本发明实施例提供的信息传输方法能够很好的适用于CoMP/FeCoMP,从而能够提高系统性能,改善小区边缘的频谱效率。
