Description
本申请涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种基于非授权频谱的同步方法及设备。
在现有通信系统中,为了使得终端设备能够快速同步到小区,通常情况下,用于进行同步的同步信号在频域上会占用固定的频域资源。例如,在基于蜂窝的窄带物联网(Narrow Band Internet of Things,NB-IoT)中,同步信号在频域上占用固定的1个资源块(Resource Block,RB),其中,每个RB占用180kHz带宽。在增强机器类通信(Ehanced Machine Type Communication,eMTC)系统中,同步信号在频域上占用固定的6个RB。
现有通信系统中无论是NB-IoT还是eMTC系统,同步信号均是利用授权频谱资源进行传输的。但根据联邦通讯委员会(Federal Communications Commission,FCC)最新发布的国际频谱白皮书,非授权(unlicensed)频谱资源要大于授权频谱资源,如果能有效利用非授权频谱,必将大幅提高无线通信的频谱效率。另外,频谱是无线通信的基础,为了保证对频谱的公平使用,各个国家制定了不同的规则,无线通信设备要在不同的地区使用必须遵守相应地区的频谱法规。在某些地区,无线通信设备在非授权频谱上使用时也是需要遵循特定的法规的,例如,欧洲电信标准协会(European Telecommunications Standards Institute,ETSI)和FCC均对使用2.4GHz频段的设备进行了约束。其中,在FCC的频谱法规中,对于数字调制(digital modulation)设备,需满足信道带宽大于500kHz,功率谱密度(Power Spectral Density,PSD)是8dBm/3KHz,最大发射功率(Coducted)不超过30dBm等限制。

根据FCC最新发布的国际频谱白皮书可以看到,非授权频谱资源要大于授权频谱资源,因此,如何有效利用非授权频谱已成为本领域技术人员研究的重点课题。另外,为了保证对频谱的公平使用,各个国家制定了不同的法规。例如,如表1所示,ETSI在频谱法规ETSI EN 300 328中,对使用2.4GHz频段的设备进行了以下约束。
表1
其中,根据表1可以得到的是:欧洲的法规将使用设备分为跳频扩频技术(Frequency Hopping Spread Sprectrum,FHSS)设备和宽带调制(Wideband Modulation)设备,并进一步细化为自适应(Adaptive)设备和非自适应(Non adaptive)设备,不同类型的设备需遵守不同的规则。例如,对于基于先听后说(Listen before talk,LBT)的检测退避(Detect And Avoid,DAA)自适应FESS设备,需满足输出功率(Output power)小于或等于20dBm,发送时间(Tx time)不大于60ms,信道
数量(Number of channels)大于或等于15,跳频扩频(FH separation)大于或等于100KHz,需要做18us的空闲信道评测(Clear Channel Assessment,CCA)等限制。再例如,对于基于非自适应FESS设备,需满足输出功率小于或等于20dBm、媒体利用(Medium Utilization,MU)率不大于10%、单次发送时间不大于5ms以及累积发送时长(Accumulated time)不大于15ms、一个信道占用信道带宽(Occupied channel bandwidth(single channel))小于或等于5MHz,发送间隔(Tx gap)大于或等于5ms等限制。MU定义为MU=(P/100mW)*DC,其中,P为输出功率,DC为占空比,当P=100mW,DC<=10%时,MU<=10%。又例如,对于基于LBT的DAA自适应宽带调制设备,需满足输出功率小于或等于20dBm,PSD小于或等于10dBm/MHz以及发送时间小于10ms(对于基于帧结构的设备(Frame Based Equipment,FBE))或小于等于13ms(对于基于负载的设备(Load based equipment,LBE))等限制。其中,max(a,b)表示取a和b中的最大值。
与ETSI的频谱法规相比,如表2所示,FCC的频谱法规相对限制较少。
表2
其中,根据表2可以得到的是:美国的法规中,对于数字调制(digital modulation)设备,需满足每个信道带宽(Bandwidth/Each channel)大于500kHz,PSD是8dBm/3KHz,发送功率(或称为传导功率(Coducted Power))不超过30dBm,等效全向辐射功率(Effective Isotropic Radiated Power,EIRP)小于36dBm等限制。对于信道数量不小于15个的FHSS设备,需满足每个信道的驻留时间(Dwell time(Each channel))小于0.4s/(0.4s*N),N为信道数量,发送功率小于21dBm等限制。对于信
道数量不小于75个的FHSS设备,需满足发送功率大于30dBm等限制。另外,在美国的法规中,允许数字调制和FHSS混合的模式,即某一设备可以包含两种工作模式,当工作在数字调制模式时,需遵守数字调制系统对应的约束,即PSD限制为8dBm/3KHz,发送功率不超过30dBm等,而工作在FHSS模式时,需遵守FHSS系统对应的约束,即发送功率需小于21dBm(信道数量不小于15条)或30dBm(信道数量不小于75条)。
另外,随着通信技术的不断发展,NB-IoT和eMTC系统均已成为万物互联网络的重要分支。其中,NB-IoT可直接部署于全球移动通信系统(Global System for Mobile Communication,GSM)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS)或长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)网络,以降低部署成本、实现平滑升级,且只消耗大约180KHz的带宽。另外,NB-IoT支持低功耗设备在广域网的蜂窝数据连接,且支持待机时间长、对网络连接要求较高设备的高效连接。eMTC系统是基于LTE协议演进而来,其通过对LTE协议的裁剪和优化,更加适用于物与物之间的通信,也降低了成本。eMTC系统可以基于蜂窝网络进行部署,eMTC系统中的终端设备通过支持1.4MHz的射频和基带带宽,可以直接接入现有LTE网络。
在现有通信系统中,为了使得终端设备能够快速同步到小区,同步信号在频域上会占用固定的频域资源。在NB-IoT中,同步信号在频域上占用固定的1个RB,NB-IoT中的终端设备的带宽为1个RB。在eMTC系统中,同步信号在频域上占用固定的6个RB,eMTC系统中的终端设备的带宽为6个RB。且,现有技术均是采用授权频谱进行同步信号的传输的。
为了能够利用非授权频谱进行同步信号的传输,且使得带宽支持1个RB的终端设备和带宽支持6个RB的终端设备都可以同步到小区,本申请实施例提供一种基于非授权频谱的同步方法,其基本原理是:基站基于非授权频谱资源,通过在频域上采用占用X个RB的预设信道发送同步信号和广播信息,且同步信号和广播信息占用X个RB中的Y个RB,该Y个RB共占用第一带宽,X、Y均为正整数,Y小于或等于X,这样,当X等于6时,便达到了利用非授权频谱进行同步信号的传输,且使得带宽支持1个RB的终端设备和带宽支持6个RB的终端设备都可以同步到小区的目的。
需要说明的是,在本申请实施例中,带宽支持1个RB的终端设备,指的是该终端设备的带宽可以是1个RB,也可以是其他带宽。带宽支持6个RB的终端设备,指的是该终端设备的带宽可以是6个RB,也可以是其他带宽。

图4为本申请实施例提供的一种基于非授权频谱的同步方法的流程图,如图4所示,该方法可以包括:
401、基站基于非授权频谱资源,在频域上采用预设信道发送同步信号和广播信息。
预设信道占用X个RB,且同步信号和广播信息占用这X个RB中的Y个RB,Y个RB共占用第一带宽,X、Y均为正整数,Y小于或等于X。第一带宽可以是基站设置的,也可以是预先配置的,或者,第一带宽可以是频谱法规规定的值,也可以是一固定值等。在本申请实施例中,第一带宽可以大于或等于500kHz。可以得到的是,本申请实施例的中用于发送同步信号和广播信息的预设信道是满足FCC的频谱法规中对数字调制设备的要求的。
例如,假设X为6,Y为3,每个RB占用180kHz带宽,Y个RB共占用540kHz带宽(大于500kHz),则,基站基于非授权频谱资源,发送的同步信号和广播信息占用6个RB中的其中3个RB。再例如,假设X为6,Y为4,每个RB占用180kHz带宽,则Y个RB共占700kHz带宽(大于500kHz),则,基站基于非授权频谱资源发送的同步信号和广播信息占用6个RB中的其中4个RB。
其中,预设信道可以位于系统带宽的预设位置上,具体的位置可以是基站和终端设备预先约定的。例如,假设预设信道占用6个RB,系统带宽为100个RB,则预设信道可以位于中心[48 53]的RB上。再例如,系统为了减少对带外系统的干扰都会留有保护带宽,如图5所示,20Mhz的带宽实际占用100个RB,两侧分别留有1Mhz的保护带宽,此时,为了在非授权频谱的场景下,能够获得更好的同步性能,预设
信道可以布局在保护带宽上,具体的,设置在一侧即可。
同步信号可以包括PSS和SSS,且SSS中承载有PCI,或者PSS和SSS中承载有PCI。同步信号和广播信息在时域上占用的时长为T1,发送周期为T2,T2大于或等于T1,这样,终端设备可以在发送周期T2内进行同步信号的搜索和广播信息的检测。且在Y个RB中,每个RB上承载的信息可以是相同的,该信息可以包括同步信号和广播信息;或者,在Y个RB中,每个RB上承载的信息可以是不同的,此时的信息可以包括同步信号和广播信息中的至少一个。Y个RB在X个RB中可以是互不相邻的。当然,Y个RB在X个RB中也可以是部分或全部相邻的,此时,相邻的RB上承载的同步信号之间需要增加频域上的保护间隔,或者,可以采用算法使得相邻RB上承载的同步信号之间存在间隔。
示例性的,当在Y个RB中,每个RB上承载的信息是相同的时,假设X为6,Y为3,T1=5ms,每个RB占用180kHz带宽,那么,同步信号和广播信息在频域上的结构示意图(即同步信道的结构示意图)可以如图6所示。参见图6可知,6个RB共占用1.08Mhz带宽,且在6个RB中的其中3个RB上均承载有同步信号和广播信息,且,每个RB上承载的信息是相同的。例如,在第一个RB上承载有PSS1、SSS和广播信息,在第三个RB上承载有PSS2、SSS和广播信息,在第五个RB上承载有PSS3、SSS和广播信息。每个RB上承载的PSS和SSS在时域上占用的时长均为1ms,广播信息在时域上占用的时长为2ms。
另外,在图6所示的结构中,3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数可以是相同的,此时,为了使得终端设备在检测到PSS时,可以确定出检测到的PSS是6个RB中的哪个RB,需要在每个RB上承载的广播信息中包括该RB的索引,用于指示承载PSS的RB。当然,3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数也可以是不同的。
示例性的,当在Y个RB中,每个RB上承载的信息是不同的时,假设X为6,Y为3,T1=5ms,每个RB占用180kHz带宽,那么,同步信号和广播信息在频域上的结构示意图可以如图7所示。参见图7可知,6个RB共占用1.08Mhz带宽,且在6个RB中的其中3个RB上均承载有同步信号和广播信息,且,每个RB上承载的信息是不同的。例如,在第一个RB上承载有PSS3,其在时域上占用的时长为4ms,在第三个RB上承载有PSS2和两个SSS,PSS2在时域上占用的时长为2ms,每个SSS在时域上占用的时长为1ms,在第五个RB上承载有PSS1、SSS和广播信息,PSS1在时域上占用的时长为1ms,SSS在时域上占用的时长为1ms,广播信息在时域上占用的时长为2ms。另外,在图7所示的结构中,3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数是不同的。
402、终端设备基于非授权频谱资源,在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息。
例如,假设基站采用如图6所示的同步信道进行同步信号和广播信息的传输,且3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数不同。对于带宽支持1个RB的终端设备,相当于存在3个独立的同步信道,同步到这3个中的任意一个均可以完成小区同步。并且,在某个同步信道受到严重干扰时,可以尝试在其他的同步信道
上进行检测也可以完成小区同步。具体的,其基于非授权频谱资源,在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程可以是:在终端设备检测到至少3个RB上的任意一个RB承载的PSS时,进行系统定时和频偏计算,并完成SSS解析和广播信息接收。例如,终端设备可以获取PCI,并根据获取到的PCI对检测到PSS的RB上承载的广播信息进行解析以获得系统广播信息,进而完成小区同步。并且,当PCI承载在SSS中时,PCI是通过解析检测到PSS的RB承载的SSS获得的,当PCI承载在PSS和SSS时,PCI是通过解析PSS和检测到PSS的RB承载的SSS获得的。
对于带宽支持6个RB的终端设备,可以完整接6个RB上承载的信息,且在进行时域搜索时,可以充分利用终端设备支持6个RB的能力,分别进行PSS、SSS相关峰值合并,对广播信息进行符号或软值比特合并,从何提高系统的健壮性。具体的,其基于非授权频谱资源,在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程可以是:在终端设备检测到3个RB上所有RB承载的PSS时,进行系统定时和频偏计算,并完成SSS解析和广播信息接收。例如,终端设备可以获取PCI,并根据PCI解析Y个RB上所有RB承载的广播信息,并进行符号或软值比特合并以获得系统广播信息,进而完成小区同步。PSS检测可以通过相关峰值合并获取更好的检测效果。并且,当PCI承载在SSS中时,PCI是通过解析Y个RB承载的SSS,并进行相关峰值合并后获得的,当PCI承载在PSS和SSS时,PCI是通过解析PSS和Y个RB承载的SSS,并进行相关峰值合并后获得的。
再例如,假设基站采用如图6所示的同步信道进行同步信号和广播信息的传输,且3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数相同。对于带宽支持1个RB的终端设备,其基于非授权频谱资源在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程与上述带宽支持1个RB的终端设备的接收过程是类似的,区别在于,终端设备需根据广播信息中包括的RB的索引确定检测到的PSS是6个RB中的哪个RB,从而确定出6个RB的边界。对于带宽支持6个RB的终端设备,其基于非授权频谱资源在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程与上述带宽支持6个RB的终端设备的接收过程是类似的,区别在于,在解析广播信息时,不能进行符号或软值比特合并,只需解析其中一个广播信息即可。
又例如,假设基站采用如图7所示的同步信道进行同步信号和广播信息的传输,且3个RB中的每个RB上承载的PSS采用的根指数不同。对于带宽支持1个RB的终端设备,只需要同步PSS1对应的同步信道即可。具体的,其基于非授权频谱资源,在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程可以是:在终端设备检测到PSS1时,进行系统定时和频偏计算,并完成SSS解析和广播信息接收。例如,终端设备可以获取PCI,根据获取到的PCI对承载PSS1的RB上承载的广播信息进行解析以获得系统广播信息,进而完成小区同步。并且,当PCI承载在SSS中时,PCI是通过解析承载PSS1的RB承载的SSS获得的,当PCI承载在PSS和SSS时,PCI是通过解析PSS1和承载PSS1的RB承载的SSS获得的。对于带宽支持6个RB的终端设备,其基于非授权频谱资源在频域上的预设信道上接收同步信号和广播信息的过程与上述带宽支持6个RB的终端设备的接收过程是相同的。
本申请实施例提供的基于非授权频谱的同步方法,基站基于非授权频谱资源,
通过在频域上采用占用X个RB的预设信道发送同步信号和广播信息,且同步信号和广播信息占用X个RB中的Y个RB,该Y个RB共占用第一带宽,达到了利用非授权频谱进行同步信号的传输,且使得带宽支持1个RB的终端设备和带宽支持6个RB的终端设备都可以同步到小区的目的,系统灵活性好。
并且,通过将预设信道可以布局在保护带宽上,有效避免了不同系统间的干扰,使得在非授权频谱的场景下能够获得更好的同步性能。本申请设计的同步信道能够充分利用数字调制设备的信道功率,提高了系统的下行覆盖能力。
