本申请主张在2018年3月23日在中国提交的中国专利申请号No.201810247834.0的优先权，其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本公开涉及通信技术领域，特别涉及一种信号发送方法及网络设备。
背景技术
在未来通信系统中，非授权频段(unlicensed band)可以作为授权频段(licensed band)的补充帮助运营商对服务进行扩容。为了与新空口(New Radio，NR)部署保持一致并尽可能的最大化基于NR的非授权接入，非授权频段可以工作在5GHz、37GHz和60GHz频段。非授权频段的大带宽(80MHz或者100MHz)能够减小基站和用户设备(User Equipment，UE)(也称终端)的实施复杂度。由于非授权频段由多种无线接入技术(Radio Access Technology，RAT)共用，例如WiFi、雷达、长期演进授权辅助接入(Long Term Evolution Licensed-Assisted Access，LTE-LAA)等，因此在某些国家或者区域，非授权频段在使用时必须符合规则(regulation)以保证所有设备可以公平的使用该资源，例如在传输前要先进行信道侦听，即先听后说(listen before talk，LBT)，最大信道占用时间(maximum channel occupancy time，MCOT)等规则。
在NR通信系统中，为了初始接入，无线资源管理(Radio Resource Management，RRM)测量等，基站(即gNB)需要发送同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，即SSB)以供UE进行测量评估等。SSB由新空口主同步信号(New radio Primary Synchronization Signal，NR-PSS，NR-PSS)/新空口辅同步信号(New radio Secondary Synchronization Signal，NR-SSS)和新空口物理广播信道(New radio Physical Broadcast channel，NR-PBCH)组成，由基站周期性地发送。对连接(CONNECTED)/空闲(IDLE) 和非独立(non-standalone)的情况(case)，SSB的周期可配置为{5,10,20,40,80,160}ms。无论周期为多少，同步信号碰撞集(SS burst set)中的SSB都要在5ms的时间窗口内完成发送。
上述SSB的传输机制适用于licensed band，基站可以周期性地发送SSB。在unlicensed band，由于信道的不确定性，SSB的发送不再能被保证。考虑到SSB的传输实际时间比较短，一次空闲信道评估(Clear Channel Assessment，CCA)的LBT可以合理的提高SSB的发送机会。但是在NR中，不同的SSB可能在不同的空间方向传输，因此相关技术方案无法解决NR SSB在非授权频段的发送问题。其他通信系统也会有类似上面的问题。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图，对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本公开一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本公开保护的范围。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象，而不必用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的数据在适当情况下可以互换，以便这里描述的本申请的实施例，例如除了在这里图示或描述的那些以外的顺序实施。此外，术语“包括”和“具有”以及他们的任何变形，意图在于覆盖不排他的包含，例如，包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、系统、产品或设备不必限于清楚地列出的那些步骤或单元，而是可包括没有清楚地列出的或对于这些过程、方法、产品或设备固有的其它步骤或单元。此外，说明书以及权利要求中使用“和/或”表示所连接对象的至少其中之一，例如A和/或B，表示包含单独A，单独B，以及A和B都存在三种情况。
在本公开实施例中，“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明。本公开实施例中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其它实施例或设计方案更具优势。确切而言，使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念。
下面结合附图介绍本公开的实施例。本公开实施例提供的信号发送方法及网络设备可以应用于无线通信系统中。该无线通信系统可以为采用第五代(5th Generation，5G)移动通信技术的系统(以下均简称为5G系统)，所述领域技术人员可以了解，5G NR系统仅为示例，不为限制。
在进行本公开实施例的说明时，首先对下面描述中所用到的一些概念进行解释说明。
SSB的子载波间隔在低频频段(指的是低于6GHz的频段)可以是为15kHz/30kHz，14个符号(symbol)的时隙(slot)中至少一个或者两个起始的符号预留(preserve)给下行链路(Downlink，DL)控制。至少2个结尾的符号预留给保护间隔(guard period，GP)和上行链路(Uplink，UL)控制。一个14个符号的时隙里至多有两个可能的SSB时间位置(time location)。在高频频段(指的是高于6GHz的频段)SSB的子载波间隔为120kHz/240kHz。当SSB的子载波间隔为120kHz时，14个符号的时隙中至少2个起始的符号预留给DL控制。至少2个结尾的符号预留给保护期间和UL控制。一个14个符号的时隙里至多有两个可能的SSB时间位置。当SSB的子载波间隔为240kHz时，SSB将映射到两个连续的14个符号的时隙上。第一个时隙中至少4个起始的符号预留给DL控制。第二个时隙的至少4个结尾的符号预留给保护期间和UL控制。两个连续的14个符号的时隙里至多有4个可能的SSB时间位置。相关技术中的SSB的传输图样(pattern)如图1至图5所示，其中，图1为子载波间隔为15kHz的SSB图样示意图，图2为子载波间隔为30kHz的SSB的第一种图样示意图，图3为子载波间隔为30kHz的SSB的第二种图样示意图，图4为子载波间隔为120kHz的SSB的图样示意图，图5为子载波间隔为240kHz的SSB的图样示意图。其中，不同的SSB可以在不同的方向上使用波束赋形(beamforming)进行传输，每个SSB对应一个波束(beam)，波束也可以被称为空域传输滤波器(spatial domain transmission filter)。
在unlicensed band上，下行信道接入过程(channel access procedure)分两种。一种是基于避让机制的LBT，适用于物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel，PDCCH)/物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel，PDSCH)/增强型物理下行控制信道(Enhance Physical Downlink Control Channel，EPDCCH)，当信道在延迟时间(defer duration)被检测为空，且counter N为零时，基站可以开始进行传输。另外一种接入机制是针对发现信号(discovery signal)(不包含数据传输)，当信道在一次空闲信道评估(CCA)内被检测为空时可以立即开始不超过1ms的传输。基站在传输SSB之前也需要进行信道侦听，要至少满足两种信道接入机制的一种， 信道接入机制的参数可以根据SSB所在的频段或者SSB的子载波间隔等进行调整。
本公开实施例在一个时域传输单元前对时域传输单元内的各个SSB的传输方向做信道侦听，在时域传输单元内在侦听到信道为空的传输方向上依次发送相应的SSB；在所有未传输的信道为空的SSB的传输方向上发送信道占位信号(channel reservation signal)。
具体地，如图6所示，图6为本公开实施例的信号发送方法的流程示意图，所述信号发送方法，应用于网络设备，包括：
步骤601，在非授权频段上，对时域传输单元进行信道侦听；
需要说明的是，此处的信道侦听指的是对时域传输单元进行LBT，该时域传输单元包括至少一个同步信号块(SSB)，即时域传输单元的最小单位可以是一个SSB的传输时间，也就是4个正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing，OFDM)符号。
步骤602，根据信道侦听的侦听结果，发送同步信号块SSB；
需要说明的是，在非授权频段上，通过根据时域传输单元的侦听结果，在侦听到目标SSB的传输方向的信道为空闲时，在所述目标SSB的OFDM符号内的所述目标SSB的传输方向上，发送所述目标SSB，以此实现了SSB在非授权频段的传输。
进一步地，网络设备进行信道侦听的具体方式为：针对所述时域传输单元包含的至少一个SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听。
这里需要说明的是，网络设备在对这些SSB进行信道侦听时，需要对SSB的传输方向进行侦听，因时域传输单元可能只有一个SSB，也可能包含两个或多于两个的SSB，当时域传输单元只有一个SSB时，网络设备只需在SSB传输之前，对这个SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听；当时域传输单元包含两个或多于两个的SSB时，网络设备需要对每一个SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听，即时域传输单元包含多少SSB，便需要对时域传输单元包含的所有SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听。
因时域传输单元所包含的内容不同，本公开实施例的信号发送方法在具体实现是也会有所不同，下面分别从时域传输单元所包含的具体内容角度， 对本公开实施例的具体实现说明如下。
一、时域传输单元只包括一个SSB
在此种情况下，网络设备在每个SSB发送之前均需要进行信道侦听。
例如，对于15kHz的SSB传输图样或者30kHz的SSB的第二种传输图样，时域传输单元可以为4个OFDM符号，网络设备在每个SSB传输之前，在该SSB的传输方向上进行侦听，具体，如图7所示。网络设备在每个SSB前的一个OFDM符号内做信道侦听，图7中虚线框内表示一个时域传输单元，该时域传输单元内只包含一个SSB，斜线填充框表示进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
在此处需要说明的是，因为SSB的传输时间非常短，因此可以采用一次空闲信道评估(CCA)的信道侦听(例如，one shot LBT)，不需要做避让(backoff)。信道侦听的时间可以是25us或者更少，例如16us，或者9us。
二、时域传输单元包括至少两个SSB
需要说明的是，当所述时域传输单元包括至少两个SSB，所述步骤601的一种实现方式为：
对所述至少两个SSB的传输方向同时进行信道侦听。
在此种情况下，所述至少两个SSB可以为连续的SSB，也可以为不连续的SSB。所述至少两个SSB均采用数字波束赋形，即只有处于低频频段的SSB可以实现在多个SSB的传输方向同时进行信道侦听。
具体地，在此种情况下，步骤602的具体实现方式为：
在侦听到所述至少两个SSB中的位于第一SSB后的至少一个第二SSB的传输方向的信道为空闲时，在所述第一SSB的正交频分复用OFDM符号内的所述至少一个第二SSB的传输方向上，发送所述至少一个第二SSB的信道占位信号。
例如，对于图1至图3所示的SSB图样，时域传输单元可以选择为多个连续的SSB。网络设备在时域传输单元之前对多个SSB的传输方向同时进行信道侦听，在信道为空的方向上传输SSB。具体如图8所示，图8指示的是子载波间隔为30kHz的SSB的图样，由于低于6GHz的频段可以用数字波束赋形，因此网络设备可以在不同的方向上发送和接收。在每两个连续的SSB 之前对SSB的传输方向同时进行信道侦听。图8中在SSB1和SSB2传输之前，对SSB1和SSB2的传输方向进行侦听，当SSB1的传输方向的信道侦听结果为忙，SSB2的传输方向的信道侦听结果为空闲时，则SSB1不能传输，SSB2可以传输。但是为了在SSB1的传输时间内SSB2的信道不被其他无线接入技术(Radio Access Technology，RAT)或者其他传输节点占用，可以在SSB1的OFDM符号内在发送SSB2传输方向发送任意信道占位信号。如果检测到信道为忙的SSB是两个连续SSB中的后一个，则前一个SSB正常发送，后一个SSB不发送，如图8中的SSB3和SSB4，其中，图中斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
还需要说明的是，对于低频的SSB，也可以选择时域传输单元为多个不连续传输的SSB，如图9所示。图9中选择两个不连续的SSB作为一个时域传输单元进行侦听，即时域传输单元的持续时间从SSB1的起始符号到SSB2的结束符号。若SSB1和SSB2的传输方向的信道均为空闲，则在SSB1的OFDM符号内，在SSB1的传输方向发送SSB1，在SSB2的传输方向发送信道占位信号。在SSB1和SSB2之间的符号内，在SSB2的传输方向发送信道占位信号，在SSB2的OFDM符号内发送SSB2，其中，图中斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
若时域传输单元长度大于一个时隙，例如跨越两个时隙，如图10所示，时域传输单元选择为SSB1的起始OFDM符号到SSB4的结束OFDM符号。若所有的传输方向都检测到信道为空，则网络设备在发送SSB的时候要同时在所有未发送的SSB的传输方向上发送信道占位信号。在SSB之间的DL符号上同样发送信道占位信号。在预留的间隔(gap)或者UL OFDM符号内不做传输或者发送信道占位信号。需要说明的是，当某些SSB的传输方向的信道检测为忙时，可以不发送该传输方向的SSB，只发送信道检测为空闲的SSB的传输方向上的信道占位信号，其中，图中斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
需要说明的是，当所述时域传输单元包括至少两个SSB，所述步骤601的另一种实现方式为：
对所述至少两个SSB的传输方向依次进行信道侦听。
需要说明的是，才此种情况下，所述至少两个SSB可以为连续的SSB，也可以为不连续的SSB。所述至少两个SSB既可以均采用数字波束赋形，也可以均采用模拟波束赋形。但是这里需要注意的是，由于高频频段的SSB，采用模拟波束赋形，因此同一时刻只能发送一个方向的波束，网络设备无法一次做各个方向的信道侦听，所以对于高频频段的至少两个SSB，网络设备需要对每个SSB的传输方向依次进行信道侦听；而对于低频频段的SSB，网络设备既可以对每个SSB的传输方向同时进行信道侦听，也可以对每个SSB的传输方向依次进行信道侦听。
具体地，当所述至少两个SSB均采用模拟波束赋形时，所述步骤602的具体实现方式为：
在侦听到所述至少两个SSB中的第三SSB的传输方向的信道为忙、且在第三SSB后有第四SSB时，在所述第三SSB的OFDM符号内的所述第四SSB的传输方向上，发送所述第四SSB的信道占位信号。
例如，对于高频频段的SSB，可以在时域传输单元前对各个SSB的传输方向依次进行信道侦听，然后在信道为空闲的传输方向上发送SSB，如图11所示。SSB1的传输方向为忙，则可以在SSB1的OFDM符号内在SSB2的传输方向上发送信道占位信号，其中，图中斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
三、时域传输单元包括SSB和物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)时
需要说明的是，在此种情况下，步骤601的具体实现方式为：
对PDCCH和所述时域传输单元中的SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听。
例如，当网络设备有PDCCH需要发送时，时域传输单元便可以包含PDCCH和SSB，如图12所示，以子载波间隔为15kHz的SSB的图样或者子载波间隔为30kHz的SSB的第二种图样为例，对于每个时隙的第一个SSB，在上一个时隙的最后一个OFDM符号内对PDCCH的传输方向和SSB的传输方向做信道侦听。对于一个时隙内的第二个SSB在SSB之前的OFDM符号内做侦听。其中，图12中的竖线填充框表示为PDCCH传输符号，点划线框表示间隔和PUCCH传输符号，斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
这里需要注意的是，若PDCCH传输方向和时隙内第一个SSB的传输方向一致，则只需要做一个方向的信道侦听。而对于子载波间隔为30kHz的SSB的第一种图样，侦听方法类似，在此不再赘述。
四、时域传输单元包括SSB和目标信息的PDCCH和物理下行共享信道(PDSCH)时
需要说明的是，在此种情况下，步骤601的具体实现方式为：
对所述目标信息的PDCCH、PDSCH和所述时域传输单元中的SSB的传输方向进行信道侦听，其中，所述目标信息包括：剩余最小系统信息(RMSI)、其他系统信息(OSI)和寻呼信令中的至少一项。
需要说明的是，针对此种格式的时域传输单元，侦听的时候针对这些信号的传输方向同时进行信道侦听或者依次进行信道侦听，然后采用时分复用(TDM)或者频分复用(FDM)的方式发送这些信号。
还需要说明的是，本公开实施例中步骤601还可以采用如下的方式实现：
对所述时域传输单元进行全向信道侦听或扇区信道侦听；
其中，所述全向信道侦听采用全向天线进行侦听；
所述扇区信道侦听采用扇区天线进行侦听。
例如，如图13所示，在时域传输单元之前的DL符号上做全向信道侦听或者扇区(sector)信道侦听，当侦听到信道为空，时域传输单元内的SSB均可以发送。需要说明的是，当进行扇区信道侦听时，扇区的方向需要覆盖时域传输单元内所有SSB的传输方向，其中，图中斜线填充框为进行时域传输单元侦听的OFDM符号。
需要说明的是，对于方向性的传输，假设ED是基于空域传输滤波器的增益设定的功率检测门限。当使用全向信道侦听或者扇区信道侦听时，由于全向天线或者扇区天线的增益和基于空域传输滤波器的增益不一样，需要调整功率检测门限或者功率检测方法使得信道侦听和传输的功率能够匹配。
为了便于实现，本公开实施例中，在不改变功率检测门限的情况下，全向信道侦听或扇区信道侦听的侦听时间的获取方式为：根据目标天线的增益和SSB的基于空域传输滤波器的增益的差值获取所述全向信道侦听或扇区信道侦听的侦听时间，其中，该目标天线为：全向天线或扇区天线。
例如，假设基于空域传输滤波器的CCA时隙是25us，空域传输滤波器的天线增益比扇区天线的增益大3dB。为了补偿3dB的天线增益差，可以将CCA时隙的时间调整为50us。
另外还需要说明的是，本公开实施例中，所述信道侦听不仅可以采用一次CCA的信道侦听，当时域传输单元较长时，也可以采用基于避让(back-off)机制的信道侦听。
需要说明的是，本公开上述实施例，可以解决在非授权频段上SSB的发送问题，以此完善了网络通信流程，保证了终端的RRM测量以及初始接入的正常进行，进而提高了网络通信的可靠性。
