Description

调度用户的确定方法、装置及系统 技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,特别涉及一种调度用户的确定方法、装置及系统。
背景技术
多输入多输出(英文:Multiple-Input Multiple-Output,简称:MIMO)波束赋形(英文:Beamforming)技术是利用信道信息对发射信号进行加权以形成波束的一种波束赋形方法,其在发射端和接收端分别使用多个发射天线和多个接收天线,使信号通过发射端与接收端的多个天线进行传输。
但随着网络中部署小区(英文:cell)的逐渐增多、小区间距离的不断减小、负载的逐步增加等等因素,不同小区间相同时频资源上的相互干扰正变得越来越严重,因而引入了下行链路(英文:Downlink,简称:DL)协同多点传输(英文:CoordinatedMulti-Point,简称:CoMP)功能,旨在通过小区间的协作以提升高速信号传输覆盖、小区边缘速率以及系统平均速率。
目前的DL CoMP技术提供一种协同波束赋形(英文:Coordinated Beamforming,简称:CBF)技术,可以通过协调各小区的波束赋形方向,以减少相互之间的干扰进而获得系统收益的技术。例如,当小区A和小区B在相同时频资源上各自服务一个用户设备(英文:User Equipment,简称:UE)(简称用户),而小区A下行信号对小区B中的用户干扰较大时,可通过协调小区A的发射信号的权值来实现干扰避让。具体的,可以预先估计实际发送时刻是目标调度用户,以及该目标调度用户的权值,当目标调度用户需要进行干扰避让时,再获取小区A以及小区B的发射权值,根据小区A以及小区B的发射权值调整实际发送时刻目标调度用户的权值,再根据调整后的权值在实际发送时刻向该目标调度用户传输数据。
现有的长期演进(英文:Long Term Evolution,简称:LTE)系统通常包括两种网络架构,分别是集中式网络架构和分布式网络架构,其中集中式网络架构的站间邻区的信号传输时延远远小于分布式网络架构的的站间邻区的信号传输时延。在CBF技术中,为了实现干扰避让,各小区需要知道邻区的调度信息以及基站到邻区中用户的信道等相关信息以进行相应的权值调整,而在目前的分布式网络架构下,由于站间邻区的信号传输时延较大,而干扰避让对实时性的要求较高,容易出现在实际调度时刻发射权值对于目标调度用户失效的情况,因此,在分布式网络架构下,目前的干扰避让的可靠性较差。
发明内容
为了解决在分布式网络架构下,目前的干扰避让的可靠性差,本申请提供了一种调度用户的确定方法、装置及系统。所述技术方案如下:
第一方面,提供一种调度用户的确定方法,应用于数据传输系统的第一基站,所述第一基站包括至少两个天线,所述第一基站管理第一小区,所述方法包括:
在第一时刻,在所述第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户,所述第二时刻在所述第一时刻之后;示例的,可以在第一时刻,采用比例公平原则在所述第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户。
确定所述第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值;
接收所述数据传输系统中第二小区所属的第二基站发送的在所述第二时刻的第二发射权值,所述第二小区包括所述第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区;
根据所述第一发射权值和所述第二发射权值,计算所述第一小区中每个用户在所述第二时刻的信干噪比SINR;
根据每个用户在所述第二时刻的SINR,在所述第一小区的用户中筛选出所述第二时刻的目标调度用户。
本发明实施例提供的调度用户的确定方法,在第一时刻第一基站在第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户后,在保证不调整第一小区和其关联邻区的发射权值的前提下,根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值计算第一小区中每个用户在第二时刻的SINR,并根据每个用户在第二时刻的SINR,在第一小区的用户中筛选出第二时刻的目标调度用户,由于该SINR是根据第一小区和其关联邻区的发射权值计算得到的,相较于根据CQI计算得到SINR更为准确,因此可以更准确地确定在第二时刻最符合该发射权值的目标调度用户,避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况,提高干扰避让的可靠性。
数据传输系统为时分双工(英文:Time Division Duplexing;简称:TDD)系统或频分双工(Frequency Division Duplexing,简称:FDD)系统时,其第一用户的SINR的计算方法不同。本发明实施例以以下两种可实现方式为例进行说明:
在第一种可实现方式中,数据传输系统为TDD系统,所述根据所述第一发射权值和所述第二发射权值,计算所述第一小区中每个用户在所述第二时刻的信干噪比SINR,包括:
根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,采用第一信噪比计算公式,计算第一用户k在第二时刻的SINR,所述第一信噪比计算公式为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000001
其中,第一用户k为第二时刻所述第一小区的任一用户,SINRk,l为所述第一用户k的第l流在第二时刻的SINR,Hi,k为第一基站i到所述第一用户k的信道,所述y为所述第一用户k的目标邻区,所述目标邻区为所述第二小区中所述第一用户k可测量到的邻区中一个,Hy,k为所述目标邻区y到所述第一用户k的信道,所述noise为所述第一用户的自身底噪,所述Y为所述第二小区中所述第一用户k可测量到的邻区的总数,wy,f为所述目标邻区y的第f流在所述第二时刻的发射权值,Fy为所述目标邻区y在所述第二时刻的总发射流数。
由上可知,在TDD系统中,小区中任一用户的SINR正相关于其信道与发射权值的乘积正相关,负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的信道与发射权值的乘积,通过上述第一信噪比计算公式所计算得到的SINR相较于根据用户上报的CQI所确定的SINR更为准确。
在第二种可实现方式中,数据传输系统为频分双工FDD系统,所述根据所述第一发射权值和所述第二发射权值,计算所述第一小区中每个用户在所述第二时刻的信干噪比SINR,包括:
根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,采用第二信噪比计算公式,计算第一用户k在第 二时刻的SINR,所述第二信噪比计算公式为:

其中,第一用户k为第二时刻所述第一小区的任一用户,SINRk,l为所述第一用户k的第l流在第二时刻的SINR,RSRPk,i为在所述第二时刻所述第一用户k测量到的第一小区i到所述第一用户的SINR,H表示求矩阵的共轭转置,所述y为所述第一用户k的目标邻区,所述目标邻区为所述第二小区中所述第一用户k可测量到的邻区中一个,RSRPk,y为在所述第二时刻所述第一用户k测量到的所述目标邻区y到所述第一用户k的RSRP,所述Y为所述第二小区中所述第一用户k可测量到的邻区的总数,Fy为所述目标邻区y在所述第二时刻的总发射流数,wy,f为所述目标邻区y的第f流在所述第二时刻的发射权值,wk,y用于表征所述目标邻区y到所述第一用户k的信道,所述wk,y的维度和所述wy,f的维度相同,由所述第一用户k按照所述第一用户k的流数为1进行测量并上报给所述第一基站的预编码矩阵的行列数PMI来表征;
当所述第一小区在所述第一时刻至所述第二时刻之间进行过协同波束赋形CBF权值调整,所述wk,SU,l为所述第一用户k的第l流在CBF权值调整前的发射权值,所述wk,CBF,l为所述第一用户k的第l流在CBF权值调整后的发射权值;
当所述第一小区在所述第一时刻至所述第二时刻之间未进行过协同波束赋形CBF权值调整,所述wk,SU,l等于所述wk,CBF,l,表示所述第一用户k的第l流在所述第二时刻的发射权值。
需要说明的是,上述wk,y的维度可以由第一用户k按照第一用户k的流数为1进行测量并上报给第一基站的PMI对应的预编码矩阵的行列数来表征。
由上可知,在FDD系统中,小区中任一用户的SINR正相关于其信道与发射权值的乘积正相关,也正相关于其RSRP,负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的信道与发射权值的乘积,也负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的RSRP,通过上述第一信噪比计算公式所计算得到的SINR相较于根据用户上报的CQI所确定的SINR更为准确。
可选的,在所述第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户之后,所述方法还包括:
获取所述第一预调度用户的用户测量集,所述第一预调度用户的用户测量集用于记录干扰所述第一预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及所述干扰源邻区的RSRP对所述第一预调度用户干扰程度;
接收第三小区所属第三基站发送的预调度信息,所述预调度信息包括:第三预调度用户的用户测量集,所述第三预调度用户为所述第三基站在所述第一时刻确定的所述第二时刻的预调度用户,所述第三预调度用户的用户测量集用于记录干扰所述第三预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及所述干扰源邻区的RSRP对所述第三预调度用户干扰程度,所述第三小区 为所述第一小区的邻区中被所述第一小区干扰的小区或所述第一小区的所有邻区;
根据所述第一预调度用户的用户测量集和所述第三预调度用户的用户测量集,确定所述第一预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户。
在上述获取所述第一预调度用户的用户测量集的过程可以包括判断第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户的过程,具体如下:

设置i=1,执行以下步骤:
A、检测i的大小,执行步骤B或C;
B、若1≤i≤n,获取排序后的前i个RSRP之和,n为预设的检测次数阈值,执行步骤D;
C、若i>n,确定第一预调度用户不是CBF候选用户,结束动作;
D、判断前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值是否大于预设的干扰噪声比值,执行步骤E或F;
E、当前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值大于预设的干扰噪声比值,确定第一预调度用户是CBF候选用户;
F、当前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值不大于预设的干扰噪声比值,更新i,使得更新后的i=i+1,重复执行步骤A-F。
其次,当第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户时,为第一预调度用户建立用户测量集。实际应用中,无论第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户,第一基站也可以为该第一预调度用户建立第一预调度用户的用户测量集,第一基站可以在该用户测量集中记录该第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户。
在本发明实施例中,第二小区是第一小区的关联邻区,其包括第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区,该预设交互条件是根据具体传输场景所定义的。
一方面,第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区可以为在预设时长内第一基站向其发送过用户测量集的基站,也即是第二小区包括预设时长内第一基站向其发送过用户测量集的基站。该预设时长大于或等于第一时刻与第二时刻的间隔时长。可选的,该预设时长可以为8个时隙。在这种场景中,第一基站会接收到其之前发送过第一预调度用户的用户测量集的基站所发送的发射权值,也即是,第一基站确定的曾经或者当前对第一预调度用户产生干扰的源干扰小区所属基站均会向第一基站反馈其在第二时刻的发射权值。
相应的,在确定第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值之后,第一基站可以向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,关联邻区所属基站为预设时长内向第一基站发送过用户测量集的基站。
具体的,当第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权 值,第一发射权值为CBF权值调整后的权值。
当第一预调度用户不为CBF待调整用户,向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为未进行CBF权值调整的权值。
另一方面,第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区可以为第一小区的所有邻区,也即是第二小区包括第一小区的所有邻区。在这种场景中,第一基站会接收到其所有邻区所属基站所发送的发射权值,也即是,第一基站的邻区所属基站均会向第一基站反馈其在第二时刻的发射权值。
相应的,在确定第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值之后,第一基站可以向第一小区的所有邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,由于在这种场景中第二小区为第一小区的所有邻区,则第一基站可以向第二基站发送第一发射权值。
具体的,当第一预调度用户不为CBF待调整用户,向第二基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为未进行CBF权值调整的权值。
当第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,向第二基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为CBF权值调整后的权值。
可选的,所述根据每个用户在所述第二时刻的SINR,在所述第一小区的用户中筛选出所述第二时刻的目标调度用户,包括:

根据所述每个用户在第二时刻的MCS,确定每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率;
根据所述每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率,采用比例公平原则在所述第一小区中筛选所述第二时刻的目标调度用户。
采用比例公平原则,可以在保证不调整第一小区和其关联邻区的发射权值的前提下,找到第二时刻最符合该发射权值且优先级最高的用户作为目标调度用户,避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况,提高干扰避让的可靠性。
可选的,所述预调度信息还包括:第三预调度用户的信道状态信息CSI,所述确定所述第一小区的第一发射权值,包括:
当所述第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,从所述第三预调度用户的CSI中获取CBF协作用户的CSI,所述CBF协作用户为所述第一基站确定的所述第三预调度用户中受所述第一小区干扰的最严重的前n个用户,所述n为所述第一小区能够协调的用户个数阈值;
根据所述第一预调度用户的CSI和所述CBF协作用户的CSI,采用特征向量迫零EZF、正则化特征向量迫零REZF或最大化信号泄露噪声比SLNR确定所述第一小区的第一发射权值。
第二方面,提供一种调度用户的确定装置,应用于数据传输系统的第一基站,所述第一基站包括至少两个天线,所述第一基站管理第一小区,所述装置包括:至少一个模块,用于执行上述第一方面所提供的调度用户的确定方法。
第三方面,提供了一种度用户的确定装置,该装置包括:处理器、发射机和接收机,该处理器用于实现上述第一方面所提供的调度用户的确定方法。
第四方面,提供了一种计算机可读存储介质,该计算机可读存储介质中存储有指令,当该计算机可读存储介质在计算机上运行时,使得计算机执行上述第一方面所提供的调度 用户的确定方法。
第五方面,提供了一种包含指令的计算机程序产品,当该计算机程序产品在计算机上运行时,使得计算机执行上述第一方面所提供的调度用户的确定方法。
第六方面,提供了一种数据传输系统,包括:至少两个基站,所述至少两个基站包括所述第一基站,所述第一基站包括第二方面或第三方面所述的调度用户的确定装置。
综上所述,本发明实施例中,第一时刻第一基站在第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户后,在保证不调整第一小区和其关联邻区的发射权值的前提下,找到第二时刻最符合该发射权值且优先级最高的用户作为目标调度用户,避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况,提高干扰避让的可靠性。
进一步的,本发明实施例中所提供的调度用户的确定方法,邻区可以指的是站间邻区,也可以是站内邻区,尤其在站间邻区交互时延较长的情景下能够有效避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况。并且,本发明实施例采用两次调度的方式,使得数据传输系统可以进行整体的协同干扰管理,将调度过程与协同联合起来,克服了此前调度与协同各自为政的缺点。

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。
请参考图1-1,图1-1是本发明实施例提供的调度用户的确定方法所涉及的CBF原理示意图,图1-1的左右两侧分别为CBF执行前和执行后该调度用户的确定方法所涉及的数据传输系统的下行信号发送情况示意图,如图1-1所示,假设该数据传输系统包括两个小区,该两个小区为小区A和小区B,如图1-1左侧所示,假设两个小区在相同时频资源上各自服务一个用户,其中小区A服务第一用户01,相应的权值向量为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000003
小区B服务第二用 户02,相应的权值向量为ω2,由图1-1可知,CBF执行前,小区A对于第一用户01的下行信号的发送方向对准第二用户02,因此下行信号对小区B中的第二用户02干扰较大;如图1-1右侧所示,采用CBF技术进行权值向量调整后,小区A服务第一用户01,相应的权值向量调整为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000004
小区B服务第二用户02,相应的权值向量不变,仍为ω2,由图1-1可知,CBF执行后,权值向量相应调整,由于小区A对于第一用户01的下行信号的发送方向较调整前偏离第二用户02,因此,信号干扰减弱。
需要说明的是,根据基带处理单元(英文:Building BasebandUnit,简称:BBU)的部署方式的不同,上述数据传输系统包括两种网络架构,分别是如图1-2所示的集中式网络架构(也即是BBU集中部署)和如图1-3所示的分布式网络架构(也即是BBU分散部署),如图1-2所示,该集中式网络架构包括多个射频拉远单元(英文:Remote Radio Unit,简称:RRU)和BBU。每个RRU构成一个小区,多个RRU分别处于不同的地理位置,他们与各自的BBU通过光纤等连接组件进行连接,但是BBU处于相同的地理位置。图1-2假设BBU共4个,分别为BBU0至BBU3,RRU共7个,分别为RRU0至RRU6,其中,BBU0至BBU3集中部署,RRU0至RRU6分散部署,由于RRU2至RRU4部署的位置较近,三者也可以视为集中部署,BBU0与RRU0连接,BBU1与RRU1连接,BBU2与RRU2至RRU4连接,BBU3分别与RRU5和RRU6连接。由于BBU是集中部署的,BBU之间的传输距离较短,因此BBU之间的交互,无论是同步、交互时延和交互带宽均十分理想。需要说明的是,图1-2的网络架构只是示意性说明,本发明实施例对集中式网络架构的具体架构不作限定。
如图1-3所示,该分散式网络架构包括多个RRU和BBU。每个RRU构成一个小区,多个RRU分别处于不同的地理位置,且属于同一小区的RRU和BBU就近部署,不同小区间BBU处于不同的地理位置,且通过主干网络进行信号传输。图1-3假设BBU共n+1个,n≥0,分别为BBU0至BBU n,RRU共n+1个,分别为RRU0至RRU n,其中,n+1个BBU分散部署,n+1个BBU与n+1个RRU一一对应连接。由于BBU是分散部署的,BBU之间的信号需要通过主干网络进行长距离的传输,因此BBU之间的交互时延较大,邻区的调度信息以及基站到邻区用户的信道等信息均无法实时获得。需要说明的是,图1-3的网络架构只是示意性说明,本发明实施例对分散式网络架构的具体架构不作限定。
为了实现干扰避让,各小区需要知道邻区的调度信息以及基站到邻区中用户的信道等相关信息以进行相应的权值调整,请参考图1-1,现有的CBF实现过程中,假设:小区A在完成第一子帧的调度后,就可以知道小区B(小区A的邻区)在第一子帧的调度结果以及小区B在第一子帧的调度用户到小区A的信道状态信息(英文:Channel State Information,简称:CSI)信息。要满足这个假设条件,CBF就需要在集中式架构的网络系统中执行,所有小区的BBU需要处于相同地理位置,以保证BBU之间有十分理想的回程线路(英文:Backhaul)时延和带宽。
而现有LTE通信网络通常是分布式部署的,BBU处于不同的地理位置。要实现集中式架构部署对现有网络的改造成本巨大,即使在新建的网络系统中采用集中式网络架构,RRU与BBU之间通常也需要大规模高性能的光纤连接,建造成本依然较高。从上述分析可知,CBF在集中式架构系统中虽然容易实现,但成本太高。而在目前的分布式网络架构下,由于站间邻区的信号传输时延较大,而干扰避让对实时性的要求较高,目前为了减少时延对 信号准确性的影响,在分布式网络架构的数据传输系统中,通常采用预调度的方式提前告知服务小区其邻区在未来某一时刻的调度信息,也即是进行未来某一时刻的调度情况的预估,但在分布式网络架构下这种预调度方式通常准确性较低。
例如,各小区真实发送时刻的调度容易会发生变化,使得此前设计的发射权值失效。示例的,请参考图1-4,假设数据传输系统中包括3个小区,分别为小区0、小区1和小区2,对于小区0,假设采用预调度的方式在预调度时刻预期数据传输系统中有3个用户会在同一时刻进行数据传输,该3个用户分别为UE_A,UE_B和UE_C,但是,在真实发送时刻(该真实发送时刻是预调度时刻之后的一个时刻),可能出现小区0的邻区用户改变的情况,例如,真实发送时刻实际上是UE_A,UE_B和UE_D这3个用户进行数据传输,其中小区0的邻区:小区2中的用户由UE_C变为UE_D,此时,针对UE_A和UE_C获取的发射权值对于UE_D是失效的;也可能出现服务用户改变,例如,真实发送时刻实际上是UE_E,UE_B和UE_D这3个用户进行数据传输,其中小区0的邻区:小区2中的用户由UE_C变为UE_D,小区0的服务用户由UE_A变为UE_E,此时,针对UE_A获取的发射权值对于UE_E是失效的。产生这种现象的原因主要归咎于目前的调度方案只追求小区内的比例公平(英文:proportional fair,简称:PF)原则,而不考虑小区间的协作。导致容易出现在实际调度时刻发射权值失效的情况,因此,在分布式网络架构下,目前的干扰避让的可靠性较差。
为了解决目前存在的问题,本发明实施例提供一种调度用户的确定方法,应用于数据传输系统的第一基站,该第一基站包括至少两个天线,第一基站管理第一小区,该小区可以参考上述图1-1所示的小区A,如图2-1所示,方法包括:
步骤201、在第一时刻,第一基站在第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户,第二时刻在第一时刻之后。
实际应用中,第二调度时刻和第一调度时刻可以根据数据传输系统的具体网络架构来预先设定,例如两者间隔至少4个时隙,或者间隔至少8个时隙。
可选的,在第一时刻,可以采用PF算法在第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户。该PF算法可以为最大比例公平获取(英文:Max PF Gain)算法。其中,Max PF Gain算法的原理如下:第一小区获取调度瞬时信道质量和历史平均信道质量比值最大的用户,其中,瞬时信道质量可以通过用户的在第二时刻的待调度频谱资源的频谱效率反映,历史平均信道质量可以通过用户的在第二时刻的前一时刻之前的数据传输总量反映,该数据传输总量的单位通常为比特(英文:bit),则用户在第二时刻的前一时刻之前的数据传输总量也即是用户在第二时刻的前一时刻之前传输的总比特数。示例的,可以根据PF公式来确定第一预调度用户,假设第二时刻传输的子帧为f,满足PF原则的第一预调度用户p可以满足如下PF公式:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000005
其中,Ek(f)是用户k在子帧f上的待调度频谱资源的频谱效率,1≤k≤K,其中,K为小区中的用户总数,Tk(f)是用户k在子帧f及子帧f之前的子帧内的数据传输总量,
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000006
表示取用户1至用户K中的最大值。
可选的,传统的获取用户k的Ek(f)的过程包括:根据用户k在子帧f的信道质量指示(英文:Channel Quality Indicator,简称:CQI),计算得到对应的调制和编码方案(英文:Channel State Information,简称:MCS),再根据该MCS确定频谱效率Ek(f),其中,该CQI是用户k测量并上报给第一基站的。
可选的,获取用户k的Tk(f-1)的过程包括:根据历史平均信道质量计算公式计算用户k的历史平均信道质量Tk(f-1),该历史平均信道质量计算公式为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000007
其中,q为第f-1子帧的调度用户,k=q,指的是用户k在第f-1子帧是调度用户,k≠q指的是用户k在第f-1子帧不是调度用户,α是预设的滤波系数,(0<α<1)。Bk(f-1)为用户k在子帧f-1的传输块大小(英文:Transportblock size,简称:TBS),即该MCS下每个资源块(英文:resource block;简称:RB)的对应传输比特数。
需要说明的是,该历史平均信道质量计算公式实质上是将如下公式的f替换为f-1,该公式中的各参数的含义可以参考上述历史平均信道质量计算公式。
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000008
实际应用中,在首次进行数据传输时,历史平均信道质量可以是一预设的初始值,也即是Tk(1)为一初始值,该初始值可以为基站的高层下发的。
步骤202、第一基站判断第一预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户。当第一预调度用户是CBF待调整用户,执行步骤203,当第一预调度用户不是CBF待调整用户,执行步骤204。
在本发明实施例中,需要预先判断第一小区在第二时刻是否需要进行CBF权值调整,当第一小区在第二时刻的下行信号对邻区产生影响,则需要进行第一小区的CBF权值调整;当第一小区在第二时刻的下行信号不对邻区产生影响,则不需要进行第一小区的CBF权值调整。本发明实施例所谓的邻区可以包括站内邻区和/或站间邻区。
需要说明的是,在CBF权值调整过程中,根据小区的下行信号的干扰与被干扰的关系,用户可以分为至少两种类型,一种是CBF待调整用户,一种是CBF协作用户,小区针对该CBF待调整用户的下行信号对针对CBF协作用户的下行信号的干扰较大,也即是CBF待调整用户是满足预设条件的干扰小区中的用户,CBF协作用户是满足另一预设条件的被干扰用户,通过对小区针对CBF待调整用户的发射权值进行调整,能够减少对CBF协作用户的干扰。例如,在图1-1中,第一用户01为CBF待调整用户,第二用户02为CBF协作用户。
实际应用中,每个基站都会检测其管理的小区中的预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户,以及检测其管理的小区中的预调度用户是否为CBF协作用户。在一些特殊情况下,一个用户既可以是CBF待调整用户也可以是CBF协作用户,也即是针对该用户的下行信号既干扰着针对某一用户的下行信号,又被针对另一用户的下行信号所干扰。
因此,如图2-2所示,判断第一预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户的具体过程如下:
步骤2021、第一基站获取第一预调度用户的用户测量集。
该第一预调度用户的用户测量集用于记录干扰第一预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及干扰源邻区的RSRP对第一预调度用户干扰程度。
首先,第一基站可以根据第一小区的邻区到第一预调度用户的参考信号接收功率(英文:Reference Signal ReceivingPower,简称:RSRP)来判断第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户,当该第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户时,为该第一预调度用户建立用户测量集。其中,RSRP通常是第一预调度用户测量并上报给第一基站的。在本发明实施例中,CBF候选用户为受到其他小区的干扰程度符合一定条件的用户,其可能成为CBF协作用户。
示例的,第一基站判断第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户的过程如下:
步骤2021a、第一基站获取第一预调度用户接收的第一预调度用户的所有邻区的RSRP总和ΣRSRPg,g为第一预调度用户的邻区总数。
步骤2021b、第一基站确定第一预调度用户的干扰总和,该干扰总和等于ΣRSRPg与第一预调度用户的自身底噪noise之和。
步骤2021c、第一基站将该第一预调度用户的所有邻区的RSRP进行降序排序(也即是由高到低排序)。
步骤2021d、第一基站根据排序后的所有邻区的RSRP确定第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户。
在一种可实现方式中,步骤2021d具体包括:
设置i=1,执行以下步骤:
A、检测i的大小,执行步骤B或C;
B、若1≤i≤n,获取排序后的前i个RSRP之和,n为预设的检测次数阈值(通常由基站的上层预先下发),执行步骤D;
C、若i>n,确定第一预调度用户不是CBF候选用户,结束动作;
D、判断前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值是否大于预设的干扰噪声比值,执行步骤E或F;
E、当前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值大于预设的干扰噪声比值,确定第一预调度用户是CBF候选用户,结束动作;
F、当前i个RSRP之和与干扰总和的比值不大于预设的干扰噪声比值,更新i,使得更新后的i=i+1,重复执行步骤A-F。
假设第一小区有3个邻区,假设预设的检测次数阈值为2,则第一基站获取第一预调度用户接收的第一预调度用户的所有邻区的RSRP总和ΣRSRP3;并确定第一预调度用户的干扰总和,该干扰总和等于ΣRSRP3与第一预调度用户的自身底噪noise之和;将该第一预调度用户的3个邻区的RSRP进行降序排序;之后,判断RSRP1是否满足公式1:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000009
其中,Threshold为预设的干扰噪声比值。
当RSRP1满足公式1,则确定第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户,当RSRP1不满足公式1,判断RSRP1+RSRP2是否满足公式2:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000010
其中,Threshold为预设的干扰噪声比值。
当RSRP1+RSRP2满足公式2,则确定第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户,当RSRP1+RSRP2不满足公式2,由于检测次数阈值为2,第一基站已经进行了2次检测,因此无需再计算RSRP1+RSRP2+RSRP3,可以确定第一预调度用户不为CBF候选用户。
其次,当第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户时,为第一预调度用户建立用户测量集。
在本发明实施例中,假设第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户,则第一基站为该第一预调度用户建立用户测量集,该第一预调度用户的用户测量集用于记录干扰第一预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及干扰源邻区的RSRP对第一预调度用户干扰程度。该干扰程度可以由上述干扰源邻区d的占比反映,具体为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000011
该占比也可以称为干扰占比。
例如,假设第一预调度用户受到2个干扰源邻区的干扰,预设的干扰噪声比值为70%,则第一预调度用户的用户测量集如表1所示,第一小区的小区号为1,第一预调度用户的标识为3,其主干扰小区为小区3,主干扰小区的RSRP占比为40%,次干扰小区的RSRP占比为30%,由此可知,UE3受到两个邻区的干扰,两个邻区分别为干扰占比为40%的小区3,以及干扰占比为30%的小区2,两者的干扰占比之和大于干扰噪声比值70%。
表1
小区号 UE的标识 主干扰小区 次干扰小区
1 3 Cell3,40% Cell2,30%
实际应用中,无论第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户,第一基站也可以为该第一预调度用户建立第一预调度用户的用户测量集,第一基站可以在该用户测量集记录该第一预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户,例如,该第一预调度用户的用户测量集如表2所示,该表格记录了UE3为CBF候选用户,其他内容可以参考表1。
表2
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000012
需要说明的是,当第一预调度用户的用户测量集如表1所示时,可以默认该表1中记载的预调度用户为CBF候选用户,无需添加指示预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户的项目,减少了用户测量集的内容,相应的简化了后续小区间交互的信息的内容。
步骤2022、第一基站接收第三小区所属第三基站发送的预调度信息,该预调度信息包括:第三预调度用户的用户测量集。
其中,该第三预调度用户为第三基站在第一时刻确定的第二时刻的预调度用户,第三预调度用户的用户测量集用于记录干扰该第三预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及干扰源邻区的RSRP对第三预调度用户干扰程度。该第三小区为第一小区的邻区中被所述第一小区干扰的小区或第一小区的所有邻区。
在本发明实施例中,数据传输系统中各个基站都会进行自身管理的小区内的用户预调度,因此,第三小区作为第一小区的邻区,其对应的基站也会进行预调度,也即是在第一时刻,第三基站在第三小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第三预调度用户,该过程可以参考上述步骤201,本发明实施例对此不作赘述。
在第三基站确定了第三预调度用户后,可以获取第三预调度用户的用户测量集,该用户测量集的获取过程可以参考上述步骤2021,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
在本发明实施例中,邻区间用户测量集的交互至少存在两种情况,一种情况是被干扰小区将其预调度用户的用户测量集传输给干扰源小区,此时,被干扰小区中的预调度用户也即是上述CBF候选用户,另一种情况是任意两个邻区均进行用户测量集的交互。
相应的,上述第三小区可以泛指一类小区,该第三小区可以为第一小区的邻区中被第一小区干扰的小区,也可以为第一小区的所有邻区。
第三基站在获取第三预调度用户的用户测量集后,将该第三预调度用户的用户测量集发送至第一基站,以便于第一基站根据第一预调度用户的用户测量集和第三预调度用户的用户测量集,确定第三预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户。
示例的,在上述第二种情况中,假设小区3中用户19和小区5中的用户39都受到了小区1的干扰,则小区3所属的基站和小区5所属的基站都为第三基站,则第三基站发来的第三预调度用户的用户测量集分别可以参考表3和表4。
表3
小区号 UE的标识 主干扰小区 次干扰小区
3 19 Cell1,63% Cell7,26%
表4
小区号 UE的标识 主干扰小区 次干扰小区
5 39 Cell8,43% Cell1,40%
同理,当第一预调度用户为CBF候选用户,则第一小区为被干扰小区,在上述第一种情况中,第一基站可以通过预调度信息把第一预调度用户的用户测量集发送给所有邻区所属基站,也即是第三基站;在上述第二种情况中,第一基站也可以通过预调度信息将第一预调度用户的用户测量集发送至第一预调度用户的干扰源小区所属基站,例如,请参考表1,第一预调度用户的干扰邻区为小区2和小区3,则第一基站将第一预调度用户的用户测量集发送至小区2和小区3所属基站。第一基站的动作可以参考第三基站,本发明实施例对此不作赘述。
步骤2023、第一基站根据第一预调度用户的用户测量集和第三预调度用户的用户测量 集,确定第一预调度用户是否为CBF待调整用户。
在本发明实施例中,第一基站可以根据第一预调度用户的用户测量集和第三预调度用户的用户测量集建立整体用户测量集,该整体用户测量集用于记录干扰目标预调度用户的干扰源邻区,以及干扰源邻区的RSRP对目标预调度用户的干扰程度。
依据上述步骤2022的第一种情况可知,目标预调度用户可以是第一小区以及所有受第一小区干扰的邻区中的用户,依据上述步骤2022的第二种情况可知,目标预调度用户也可以是第一小区以及第一小区的所有邻区中的用户。
示例的,依据上述步骤2022的第一种情况可知,假设该整体用户测量集可以如表5所示。需要说明的是,表5中的备注项目中的内容用于解释各个用户测量集,实际应用中,整体用户测量集中可以不携带该备注项目,进一步的,该整体用户测量集可以包含指示预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户的项目,相应的,其每一行内容可以参考上述表2,此时,第一基站可以根据整体用户测量集中“预调度用户是否为CBF候选用户”这一项目中的内容,确定哪些小区中的预调度用户是CBF候选用户,也即是确定哪些小区为第一小区的邻区中被第一小区干扰的小区。实际应用中,由于第一小区的邻区可以有很多,本发明实施例中表5只是以第一小区有4个邻区为例进行说明,也即是表5记录了5个小区中的预调度用户的用户测量集。
表5
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000013
示例的,依据上述步骤2022的第二种情况可知,假设该整体用户测量集可以如表6所示。需要说明的是,表6中的备注项目中的内容用于解释各个用户测量集,实际应用中,整体用户测量集中可以不携带该备注项目,进一步的,该整体用户测量集可以包含指示预 调度用户是否为CBF候选用户的项目,相应的,其每一行内容可以参考上述表2。实际应用中,由于被第一小区干扰的邻区可以有很多,本发明实施例中表6只是以第一小区有2个被干扰的邻区为例进行说明,也即是表6记录了3个小区中的预调度用户的用户测量集。
表6
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000014
依据上述步骤2022、2023以及表5和表6可知,采用第二种情况所提供的用户测量集的传输方式,可以减少用户测量集的传输次数,降低建立整体用户测量集的复杂度,因此,实际应用中通常采用第二种情况所提供的用户测量集的传输方式。
进一步的,第一基站还可以根据上述整体用户测量集,确定第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户。
具体的,第一基站根据第一小区的小区号查询该整体用户测量集中是否存在该第一小区作为干扰源小区(具体可以查询上述表5或表6中的主干扰小区和次干扰小区),若整体用户测量集中不存在该第一小区作为干扰源小区,则确定该第一小区中的第一预调度用户不为CBF待调整用户;若整体用户测量集中存在该第一小区作为干扰源小区,则确定该第一小区中的第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户。
需要说明的是,上述预调度信息的交互过程可以通过回程线路实现。回程线路又称回程链路,是指从接入网络或者小区站点(英文:cellsite)到交换中心的连接。交换中心连接至骨干网络,而骨干网络连接至核心网络。因而,回程线路是任何电信网络结构的中间层,它位于接入网络和骨干网络之间,为这两个网络提供了重要连接。
步骤203、第一基站确定CBF权值调整后的第一发射权值。执行步骤205。
需要说明的是,上述步骤2022中,第三基站发送的预调度信息还可以包括第三预调度用户的CSI。该CSI可以包括:预编码矩阵的行列数(英文:Precoding Matrix Indicator,简称:PMI),CQI和流数(等于预编码矩阵的秩)等信息。
相应的,确定第一小区的第一发射权值的过程可以包括:
步骤X1、当第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,从第三预调度用户的CSI中获取CBF协作用户的CSI。
当第一预调度用户是CBF待调整用户,说明第一小区需要进行第二时刻的发射权值调 整,也即进行CBF权值调整,而CBF权值调整需要确定第一小区的CBF协作用户,通过与CBF协作用户的协作才能实现CBF权值调整。该第一小区的CBF协作用户为受到第一小区干扰且符合预设筛选条件的用户,该预设筛选条件为受受害干扰程度最高的n0个用户,也即是CBF协作用户为第一基站确定的第三预调度用户中受第一小区干扰的最严重的前n0个用户,该n0为第一小区能够协调的用户个数阈值,实际应用中,n0=n1-n2,该n1为第一小区的可协作用户阈值n1,等于第一小区的发射天线数量,n2是第一小区在第二时刻服务的流数,等于第一预调度用户的接收天线的数量。
则根据上述步骤202中提供的整体用户测量集,第一基站可以确定第一小区的CBF协作用户。示例的,上述确定第一小区的CBF协作用户的过程,具体包括:根据第一小区的可协作用户阈值n1以及第一小区在第二时刻服务的流数n2在整体用户测量集中选择受干扰程度最高的n1-n2个用户作为第一小区的CBF协作用户,上述受干扰程度与干扰占比正相关,也即是第一小区对受干扰用户的干扰占比越高,该受干扰用户的受害程度越高。
示例的,假设n1=4,n2=1,则n0=3,若第一小区的受干扰用户超过3个,则根据表5或表6将第一小区对受干扰用户的干扰占比最高的前3个待调度用户作为第一小区的CBF协作用户,也即是第一基站在只能针对3个CBF协作用户进行第二时刻下行信号发射权值的调整,以减少下行信号对该3个CBF协作用户的影响。
若第一小区的受干扰用户未超过3个,则将第一小区的受干扰用户确定为第一小区的CBF协作用户。请参考表5或表6,则第一小区(即小区1)的受干扰用户分别为用户19(小区1对其相应的干扰占比为63%)和用户39(小区1对其相应的干扰占比为40%),则将预调度用户19和39作为CBF协作用户。
需要说明的是,第一基站m还可以建立CoMP协作用户集Um,该Um包括第一小区的预调度用户和第一小区的CBF协作用户。例如,第一小区m内的预调度用户为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000015
(N1为第二时刻第一小区内第一预调度用户的个数,若有多个第一预调度用户,则N1>1,若有1个第一预调度用户,则N1=1),第一小区的CBF协作用户为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000016
N2为第一小区的CBF协作用户的个数,则
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000017
为CoMP协作用户集。
步骤X2、根据第一预调度用户的CSI和CBF协作用户的CSI,采用特征向量迫零(英文:Eigenvector Zero Forcing,简称:EZF)、正则化特征向量迫零(英文:Regularized Eigenvector Zero Forcing,简称:REZF)或最大化信号泄露噪声比(英文:Signal to Leakage plus Noise Ratio,简称:SLNR)确定第一小区的第一发射权值。
常用的CBF权值调整算法有EZF、REZF、SLNR等,本发明实施例以以下几种可实现方式进行说明:
第一种可实现方式,根据第一预调度用户的CSI和第二预调度用户的CSI,采用EZF确定第一小区在第二时刻的联合信道矩阵,并根据该联合信道矩阵确定第一小区的第一发射权值。
EZF算法的原理是:对第一小区m内的预调度用户
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000018
(N1为第二时刻第一小区内第一预调度用户的个数,若有多个第一预调度用户,则N1>1,若有1个第一预调度用户,则N1=1),使第一预调度用户
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000019
中每个用户的发送信号与第一小区的CBF协作用户
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000020
(也即是第二预调度用户)的信道特征方向正交。
通过小区间的信息交互的CSI,可获得第一基站到第一预调度用户以及到第二预调度用户的PMI,将PMI对应的特性向量(也称本征向量)作为对下行信道的重构,用于CBF权值计算。假设输入参数为各预调度用户的特征向量{Vu|u∈Um},其中,
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000021
则构造的EZF联合信道矩阵为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000022
则第一小区m内的配对用户的权值矩阵为:
W=HH*(H*HH)-1*diag(β);
也即是:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000023
需要说明的是,实际使用的权值矩阵Wuse满足:

假设第一小区内的各个第一预调度用户的流数分别为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000033
总流数为L,现在计算第一小区需要多少发送流数,即空间维度。相应地,在Wuse里挑选需要的数量,CBF方案中只从Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为针对该第一小区的第一预调度用户的信号发射的权值向量,也即是在Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为第一小区的第一发射权值。
第二种可实现方式,根据第一预调度用户的CSI和第二预调度用户的CSI,采用REZF确定第一小区在第二时刻的联合信道矩阵,并根据该联合信道矩阵确定第一小区的第一发射权值。
REZF算法的目的在于兼顾有效信号和干扰避让,在保证这两个目的的前提下寻找折中的联合信道矩阵W。与EZF相比公式修改为:
W=HH*(H*HH+diag(α))-1*diag(β);
也即是:

Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000045
总流数为L,现在计算第一小区需要多少发送流数,即空间维度。相应地,在Wuse里挑选需要的数量,CBF方案中只从Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为针对该第一小区的第一预调度用户的信号发射的权值向量,也即是在Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为第一小区的第一发射权值。
第三种可实现方式,根据第一预调度用户的CSI和第二预调度用户的CSI,采用SLNR确定第一小区在第二时刻的联合信道矩阵,并根据该联合信道矩阵确定第一小区的第一发射权值。
SLNR算法的原理是:对第一小区m内的第一预调度用户
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000046
(N1为第二时刻第一小区内第一预调度用户的个数,若有多个第一预调度用户,则N1>1,若有1个第一预调度用户,则N1=1),最大化该第一预调度用户的信号接收功率与该第一小区的CBF协作用户
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000047
的干扰泄露功率之比。也就是说其权值生成约束条件是实现信号功率相对于泄露到第一小区的CBF协作用户所在小区的信号功率及噪声最大化,从而使权值能够兼容解决对第一小区的CBF协作用户所在小区的泄露问题以及第一预调度用户的信噪比问题。

假设第一小区内的各个第一预调度用户的流数分别为
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000067
总流数为L,现在计算第一小区需要多少发送流数,即空间维度。相应地,在Wuse里挑选需要的数量,CBF方案中只从Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为针对该第一小区的第一预调度用户的信号发射的权值向量,也即是在Wuse中选取前L个列向量作为第一小区的第一发射权值。
本发明实施例中,CBF权值调整是相对于传统的发射权值而言的,该传统的发射权值的确定过程可以参考后述步骤204的确定方法。
步骤204、第一基站按照传统技术确定第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值。执行步骤205。
实际应用中,第一基站可以先按照传统技术计算第一小区在第二时刻的第一发送权值,例如按照标准3GPP36.211-3GPP36.213中的内容计算第一小区在第二时刻的第一发送权值。该第一发送权值是根据第一预调度用户上报的CQI计算得到的,通常情况下,第一发送权值在上述步骤201所对应的第一次预调度过程中计算得到。
步骤205、第一基站接收数据传输系统中第二小区所属的第二基站发送的在第二时刻的第二发射权值。
在本发明实施例中,每个基站都会进行自身管理的小区在第二时刻的发射权值确定,发射权值的确定方式可以参考上述步骤203或204,本发明实施例对此不作赘述。
并且,每个基站会计算得到的发射权值发送给关联的邻区,示例的,第一基站接收数据传输系统中第二小区所属的第二基站发送的在第二时刻的第二发射权值,在本发明实施例中,第二小区是第一小区的关联邻区,其包括第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区,该预设交互条件是根据具体传输场景所定义的。
一方面,第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区可以为在预设时长内第一基站向其发送过用户测量集的基站,也即是第二基站包括预设时长内第一基站向其发送过用户测量集的基站。该预设时长大于或等于第一时刻与第二时刻的间隔时长。可选的,该预设时长可以为8个时隙。在这种场景中,第一基站会接收到其之前发送过第一预调度用户的用户测量集的基站所发送的发射权值,也即是,第一基站确定的曾经或者当前对第一预调度 用户产生干扰的源干扰小区所属基站均会向第一基站反馈其在第二时刻的发射权值。
相应的,在确定第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值之后,第一基站可以向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,该关联邻区所属基站为预设时长内向第一基站发送过用户测量集的基站。
具体的,当第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为CBF权值调整后的权值,即为步骤203中所确定的第一权值。
当第一预调度用户不为CBF待调整用户,向关联邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为未进行CBF权值调整的权值,即为步骤204中所确定的第一权值。
另一方面,第一小区的邻区中符合预设交互条件的邻区可以为第一小区的所有邻区,也即是第二小区包括第一小区的所有邻区。在这种场景中,第一基站会接收到其所有邻区所属基站所发送的发射权值,也即是,第一基站的邻区所属基站均会向第一基站反馈其在第二时刻的发射权值。
相应的,在确定第一小区在第二时刻的第一发射权值之后,第一基站可以向第一小区的所有邻区所属基站发送第一发射权值,由于在这种场景中第二小区为第一小区的所有邻区,则第一基站可以向第二基站发送第一发射权值。
具体的,当第一预调度用户不为CBF待调整用户,向第二基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为未进行CBF权值调整的权值,即为步骤203中所确定的第一权值。
当第一预调度用户为CBF待调整用户,向第二基站发送第一发射权值,第一发射权值为CBF权值调整后的权值,即为步骤204中所确定的第一权值。
步骤206、第一基站根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,计算第一小区中每个用户的信干噪比(英文:Singal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio,简称:SINR)。
需要说明的是,数据传输系统为时分双工(英文:Time Division Duplexing;简称:TDD)系统或频分双工(Frequency Division Duplexing,简称:FDD)系统时,其第一用户的SINR的计算方法不同。本发明实施例以以下两种可实现方式为例进行说明:
在第一种可实现方式中,当数据传输系统为TDD系统时,根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,计算第一小区中每个用户在第二时刻的信干噪比SINR的过程,包括:
根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,采用第一信噪比计算公式,计算第一用户k在第二时刻的SINR,第一信噪比计算公式为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000068
其中,第一用户k为第二时刻第一小区的任一用户,SINRk,l为第一用户k的第l流在第二时刻的SINR,Hi,k为第一基站i到第一用户k的信道,y为第一用户k的目标邻区,该目标邻区为第二小区中第一用户k可测量到的邻区中一个,也即是给第一小区发送过权值的小区中第一用户k能够测量到的邻区,Hy,k为目标邻区y到第一用户k的信道,noise为第一用户的自身底噪,Y为第二小区中第一用户k可测量到的邻区的总数,wy,f为目标邻区y的第f流在第二时刻的发射权值,Fy为目标邻区y在第二时刻的总发射流数。
由上可知,在TDD系统中,小区中任一用户的SINR正相关于其信道与发射权值的乘积,负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的信道与发射权值的乘积,通过上述第一信噪比计算公 式所计算得到的SINR相较于根据用户上报的CQI所确定的SINR更为准确。
在第二种可实现方式中,当数据传输系统为FDD系统时,根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,计算第一小区中每个用户在第二时刻的信干噪比SINR的过程,包括:
根据第一发射权值和第二发射权值,采用第二信噪比计算公式,计算第一用户k在第二时刻的SINR,第二信噪比计算公式为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000069
其中,第一用户k为第二时刻第一小区的任一用户,SINRk,l为第一用户k的第l流在第二时刻的SINR,RSRPk,i为在第二时刻第一用户k测量到的第一小区i到第一用户的SINR,H表示求矩阵的共轭转置,y为第一用户k的目标邻区,该目标邻区为第二小区中第一用户k可测量到的邻区中一个,RSRPk,y为在第二时刻第一用户k测量到的目标邻区y到第一用户k的RSRP,Y为第二小区中第一用户k可测量到的邻区的总数,Fy为目标邻区y在第二时刻的总发射流数,wy,f为目标邻区y的第f流在第二时刻的发射权值,wk,y用于表征目标邻区y到第一用户k的信道,wk,y的维度和wy,f的维度相同。
当第一小区在第一时刻至第二时刻之间进行过CBF权值调整,wk,SU,l为第一用户k的第l流在CBF权值调整前的发射权值,也即是该发射权值为上述步骤204所确定的第一发射权值,wk,CBF,l为第一用户k的第l流在CBF权值调整后的发射权值,也即是该发射权值为上述步骤203所确定的第一发射权值。
当第一小区在第一时刻至第二时刻之间未进行过协同波束赋形CBF权值调整,wk,SU,l等于wk,CBF,l,表示第一用户k的第l流在第二时刻的发射权值,也即是该发射权值为上述步骤204所确定的第一发射权值。此时上述第二信噪比计算公式可以调整为:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000070
需要说明的是,上述wk,y的维度可以由第一用户k按照第一用户k的流数为1进行测量并上报给第一基站的PMI对应的预编码矩阵的行列数来表征。
由上可知,在FDD系统中,小区中任一用户的SINR正相关于其信道与发射权值的乘积,也正相关于其RSRP,负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的信道与发射权值的乘积,也负相关于其能够测量到的邻区的RSRP,通过上述第一信噪比计算公式所计算得到的SINR相较于根据用户上报的CQI所确定的SINR更为准确。
步骤207、第一基站根据每个用户在第二时刻的信干噪比(英文:Singal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio,简称:SINR),在第一小区的用户中筛选出第二时刻的目标调度用户。
如图2-3所示,根据每个用户在第二时刻的SINR,在第一小区的用户中筛选出第二时刻的目标调度用户,包括:
步骤2071、第一基站根据每个用户在第二时刻的SINR,确定每个用户在第二时刻的MCS;
在本发明实施例中,根据SINR可以查询3GPP协议中预设表格得到MCS,本发明实施例对此不作赘述。
步骤2072、第一基站根据每个用户在第二时刻的MCS,确定每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率;
在本发明实施例中,可以通过查表的方式,根据每个用户在第二时刻的MCS,确定每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率。
步骤2073、第一基站根据每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率,采用比例公平原则在第一小区中筛选第二时刻的目标调度用户。
请参考步骤201中的比例公平算法,在步骤2073中,除了每个用户在第二时刻的频谱效率的算法与步骤201中所提供的算法不同外,其他参数的算法与其提供的比例公平算法相同。
也即是,假设第二时刻传输的子帧为f,满足PF原则的用户p可以满足如下PF公式:
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000071
其中,Ek(f)是用户k在子帧f上的待调度频谱资源的频谱效率,其采用上述步骤2071获取,1≤k≤K,其中,K为小区中的用户总数,Tk(f)是用户k在子帧f及子帧f之前子帧内的数据传输总量,
Figure PCTCN2017080257-appb-000072
表示取用户1至用户K的最大值。获取用户k的Tk(f-1)的过程参考上述步骤201,本发明实施例对此不再赘述。
上述Ek(f)与Tk(f-1)的比值最大的用户k即为第二时刻的目标调度用户。该目标调度用户是第二时刻最符合第一发射权值和第二发射权值且优先级最高的用户。
步骤208、在第二时刻,第一基站采用目标调度用户的MCS,向目标调度用户传输数据。
请参考步骤207中的步骤2071,由于目标调度用户的MCS在该步骤2071已确定,因此,可以直接获取该目标调度用户的MCS,在第二时刻,采用目标调度用户的MCS,向目标调度用户传输数据。此时采用的发射权值为步骤203所计算得到的第一发射权值,第二基站采用的发射权值是其在步骤205中发送的第二发射权值。
需要说明的是,在上述步骤204之后,当该用户不为CBF待调整用户时,第一基站也可以在第二时刻按照PF原则向目标调度用户传输数据。也即是采用步骤201所提供的比例公平算法所计算得到的MCS,在第二时刻向目标调度用户传输数据,此时采用的发射权值为步骤204所计算得到的第一发射权值,第二基站采用的发射权值是其在步骤205中发送的第二发射权值。
综上所述,本发明实施例中,第一时刻第一基站在第一小区的用户中确定第二时刻的第一预调度用户后,在保证不调整第一小区和其关联邻区的发射权值的前提下,找到第二时刻最符合该发射权值且优先级最高的用户作为目标调度用户,避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况,提高干扰避让的可靠性。
进一步的,本发明实施例中所提供的调度用户的确定方法,邻区可以指的是站间邻区,也可以是站内邻区,尤其在站间邻区交互时延较长的情景下能够有效避免实际调度时发射权值失效的情况。并且,本发明实施例采用两次调度的方式,如上述步骤201所提供的第一次预调度过程以及步骤207提供的第二次预调度过程,使得数据传输系统可以进行整体的协同干扰管理,将调度过程与协同联合起来,克服了此前调度与协同各自为政的缺点。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例中,主要是以第一基站为例进行调度用户的确定方法的说明,实际应用中,在该数据传输系统中,各个基站均可以像上述第一基站一样,在一个预调度周期(也即是上述的第一时刻到第二时刻的时间段)中执行两次预调度过程,且相邻小区所属基站通常会有信息交互。示例的,请参考图2-4,本发明实施例以基站(英文:base station,简称:BS)01和BS02的交互为例进行说明,假设BS01服务的小区1中的用户包括UE011,BS02服务的小区2中的用户包括UE021,BS01和BS02可以广播信道状态信息-参考信号(英文:Channel State Information-Reference Signal,简称:CSI-RS),UE011可以对BS01的CSI-RS回复CSI反馈(英文:feedback),UE021可以对BS02的CSI-RS回复CSI反馈。BS01和BS02可以执行第一次预调度过程,具体可以参考上述步骤201,假设第一小区和第二邻区互为邻区或互为干扰小区,两者交互预调度信息,该预调度信息包括用户测量集以及CSI,具体可以参考上述步骤2022。第一基站和第二基站根据该接收到的预调度信息,判断是否进行CBF权值调整,然后根据判断结果确定第二时刻的发射权值。由于第一小区和第二邻区互为邻区,且第一小区和第二邻区在预设时长内也交互过用户测量集,所以两者符合步骤205所定义的关联邻区的关系,两者交互发射权值,该发射权值可以为CBF权值调整后的权值,具体可以参考步骤203所确定的权值,也可以为未进行CBF权值调整的权值,具体参考步骤204所确定的权值。第一基站和第二基站根据接收到的权值以及自身的权值进行第二次预调度过程,具体可以参考上述步骤207。假设经过第二次预调度过程,第一小区的目标调度用户为UE011,第二小区的目标调度用户为UE021,则BS01通过用户专用参考信号(英文:User equipment-reference signal,简称:UE-RS,又称DM-RS)向UE011传输确定的发射权值,并采用该发射权值进行调度;BS02通过UE-RS向UE021传输确定的发射权值,并采用该发射权值进行调度。
上述第一层预调度过程的目的是:由于各小区间的调度结果和CSI信息交互在分布式系统下存在回程线路时延,真实发送时刻(也即上述第二时刻)的那一帧时间内无法完成信息交互,因此需要采用预调度的方式,根据各小区当前时刻(也即上述第一时刻)的CSI信息预测未来某一真实发送时刻的调度用户(本发明实施例称为预调度用户),小区间交互这个预调度结果和CSI信息,用于CBF的协同权值设计。
上述第二层预调度过程的目的是:在真实发送时刻,小区内用户业务状态可能与预调度时刻发生了变化(该场景可以参考图1-4中的场景),不能保证预调度的结果依然适用于该小区。但本发明实施例又不希望再改变各小区的发射权值(在本发明实施例中,无论是否进行过CBF权值调整,各小区交互发射权值后,其发射权值不再调整),破坏系统内的干扰管理。因此在权值不变的基础上,通过第二层预调度过程,寻找一个最匹配整个数据传输系统的既定发射权值(即在这个权值下优先级最高)的用户作为目标调度用户。这样会带来两个好处:1)发射权值设计后可能并不一定更契合原有的预调度用户,更合适的用户将会入选,成为目标调度用户;2)原来的预调度用户可能会因为网络变化或者用户移动而 消失,但替代者(也即是目标调度用户)是最贴近该预调度用户的;3)新的高优先级用户允许切入,但不会更改数据传输系统的发射权值,无需破坏此前全系统的干扰管理设计。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例提供的调度用户的确定方法步骤的先后顺序可以进行适当调整,步骤也可以根据情况进行相应增减,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本发明揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化的方法,都应涵盖在本发明的保护范围之内,因此不再赘述。
