Information transmitting and receiving method, device and communication system

Technical field

The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and device for transmitting and receiving information and a communication system.

Background technique

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology is an important technology of the fifth generation (5G) communication system. NOMA is not limited to the use of orthogonal time-frequency resources to distinguish terminal devices, and thus it is possible to multiplex more terminal devices within limited time-frequency resources. The robustness of NOMA to interference between terminal devices makes it easy to combine with grant-free transmission/transmission with configured grant, thereby reducing data latency and signaling overhead. These are important for realizing key performance indicators (KPIs) such as high connection density and low latency of 5G communication systems.

Unlike orthogonal multiple access (OMA), which relies on orthogonal time-frequency resources and/or orthogonal codes to multiplex terminal devices, NOMA can use non-orthogonal resources to complex terminal devices. use. These non-orthogonal resources may include, for example, power, interleaving (corresponding to corresponding interleaver interleaver), sequences, codewords, resource mapping, and the like.

Different NOMA modes can be constructed based on different non-orthogonal resources and/or combinations of different non-orthogonal resources, such as sequence-based NOMA, interleave-based NOMA, codeword-based NOMA, etc.; in addition, the same NOMA mode Different NOMA configurations may also be included, for example, for sequence-based NOMA, different NOMA configurations may refer to different sequences; for interlace-based NOMA, different NOMA configurations may refer to different interlaces; for codeword-based NOMA, different The NOMA configuration can refer to different codewords, which are not listed here. Therefore, different NOMA modes and/or NOMA configurations can generate different multiplexing signatures.

As shown in FIG. 1, the communication system 100 may include a network device 101 and a terminal device 102. For the sake of simplicity, FIG. 1 is only described by taking one terminal device and one network device as an example, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

In the embodiment of the present invention, an existing service or a service that can be implemented in the future can be performed between the network device 101 and the terminal device 102. For example, these services may include, but are not limited to, enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine type communication (mMTC), and high reliability low latency communication (URLLC, Ultra-Reliable and Low). -Latency Communication), and so on.

Different NOMA transmission modes can be constructed based on different features of non-orthogonal resources and/or combinations of different features. A NOMA transmission scheme may be based on only one feature (eg, based only on interleaving) or on a combination of multiple features (eg, based on both interleaving and sparse resource mapping).

2 is a schematic diagram of an interlace-based NOMA transmission mode according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, for a terminal device, after the information bits are subjected to channel coding and rate matching, the output bit sequence may be repeated several times. Then, bit-level interleaving is performed, and then the interleaved bits are modulated and mapped to physical resources to form an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol for transmission.

3 is a schematic diagram of a sequence (symbol spreading sequence) based NOMA transmission mode according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, after a bit sequence subjected to channel coding and rate matching is modulated for a terminal device, Each modulated symbol can be multiplied by a symbol spreading sequence to be spread into a sequence of symbols, followed by physical resource mapping and OFDM symbol generation.

As shown in FIG. 4, for a terminal device, a bit sequence that has undergone channel coding and rate matching may be directly mapped to a predetermined mapping rule. A codeword (or symbol vector/symbol sequence) followed by physical resource mapping and OFDM symbol generation.

As indicated above, different terminal devices may use different interlaces (e.g., Figure 2) or use different sequences (e.g., Figure 3) or use different codewords (e.g., Figure 4), which are the basis for distinguishing terminal devices. The receiver of the network device can decouple the information (and/or data) multiplexed by the plurality of terminal devices using multi-user detection techniques.

Similarly, different terminal devices may also perform multiplexing of information (and/or data) based on different powers or different resource mapping manners. In addition, more different NOMA transmission modes can be constructed based on different non-orthogonal resources and/or combinations of different non-orthogonal resources. The NOMA can use OFDM or DFT-s-OFDM waveforms, which is not limited in the present invention.

Although terminal devices use overlapping time-frequency resources for transmission, different terminal devices can be distinguished by different multiplexing features. Therefore, NOMA is robust against interference between terminal devices. This feature makes NOMA Suitable for combination with unscheduled transmission.

For the unscheduled transmission, the network device (for example, the base station) configures and reserves available time-frequency resources for the terminal device in advance, and the terminal device does not need to send a scheduling request (SR, scheduling request) and wait for scheduling signaling after the service arrives, which may be Autonomously initiates data transmission within the configured time-frequency resource. To improve resource utilization efficiency, multiple terminal devices can share time-frequency resources.

Since there is no centralized scheduling between terminal devices, multiple terminal devices may use the same time-frequency resources for data transmission, thereby generating interference between terminal devices. If the NOMA technology is used in the unscheduled transmission, the robustness against interference between the above terminal devices can be enhanced. In addition, the unscheduled transmission itself also has frequency hopping, repetition transmission and other technical means to resist interference and improve transmission reliability.

However, for some scenarios, such as mMTC, etc., the number of terminal devices may be greater than the number of available multiplexing features. Here, the multiplexing feature may be at least one of the above-mentioned power, interleaving, sequence, codeword, resource mapping, and the like, which may be used to distinguish non-orthogonal resources of the terminal device. Therefore, in the process of scheduling-free transmission, it is inevitable that multiple terminal devices transmit using the same multiplexing feature (which may also be referred to as multiplexing feature collision), which usually affects the multi-user detection performance of the receiving end. , bringing a certain degree of performance loss, such as an increase in the user's block error rate (BLER), a decrease in throughput, and the like.

For example, for the NOMA method of distinguishing terminal devices by using a spreading sequence, if two terminal devices use the same spreading sequence, the high correlation between sequences causes the sequence to remain despreading. Strong interference between end devices.

In addition, it is considered that the unscheduled transmission will also use frequency hopping and/or repeated transmission to improve the reliability of data transmission. Once a multiplexing feature (such as a spreading sequence) collision between terminal devices occurs, it will be at each hop ( Hops and/or collisions occur in each iteration of the transmission. This continuous collision will greatly reduce and reduce the performance advantages of frequency hopping and/or repeat transmission itself.

Therefore, it is expected to be able to reduce or avoid collision of data and/or information transmitted between terminal devices.

It should be noted that the information mentioned in the embodiment of the present invention may be control information or data information, etc. The sending or receiving of the information may be an uplink transmission between the network device and the terminal device, or may be a network device. The downlink transmission with the user equipment may also be an edge link transmission between the terminal device and the terminal device. The embodiments of the present invention do not limit these specific contents, and can be applied to different scenarios.

Example 1

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for transmitting and receiving information.

In addition, the above description is only taking the first time-frequency resource and the second time-frequency resource as an example, and the present invention should be understood as at least two time-frequency resources; for more than two time-frequency resources, the basis may be two The processing is similarly performed; in addition, the time-frequency resource herein can be understood as a time domain resource and/or a frequency domain resource.

In this embodiment, the terminal device may perform hopping on the multiplexing feature used for information transmission or reception based on the hopping information, to enable (or enable) the first time-frequency resource and the second time-frequency resource. Determining different said first multiplexing features and said second multiplexing features.

In one embodiment, the network device may indicate hopping information, such as hopping patterns and/or hopping patterns, to the terminal device, or directly indicate multiplexing characteristics of one or more time-frequency resources.

Step 603: The terminal device sends or receives information based on the first multiplexing feature on the first time-frequency resource, and sends or receives information on the second time-frequency resource based on the second multiplexing feature.

For example, the semi-static signaling includes radio resource control (RRC) signaling, and the dynamic signaling includes downlink control information (DCI, Downlink Control) in a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). Information); the invention is not limited thereto.

It should be noted that the above FIG. 6 only schematically illustrates the embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the order of execution between the various steps can be appropriately adjusted, and other steps can be added or some of the steps can be reduced. Those skilled in the art can appropriately adapt according to the above, and are not limited to the description of FIG. 6 described above.

In another embodiment, the hopping information may be determined by the terminal device, for example, the terminal device may be determined in a pseudo-random manner. The hopping information may be determined by at least one of: a time-frequency resource sub-cell index, a reference signal index, a symbol index, a hop index, a slot index, a repeated transmission index, a system frame number, a user identifier, a cell identifier, and a beam index. However, the invention is not limited thereto.

Used for repeated transmission of the information. That is, the present invention can be applied to a scene of single transmission, and can also be applied to a scene of repeated transmission. For further explanation of these contents, please refer to Examples 2 to 5 to be described later.

In this embodiment, the hopping may occur between at least two time-frequency resource sub-frames, or between at least two time slots, or between at least two symbols, or between at least two hops Or between at least two subcarriers, or between at least two resource blocks (RBs); however, the invention is not limited thereto.

By multiplexing feature transitions, the problem of multiplexing feature collisions can be reduced or resolved.

Or receiving information and transmitting or receiving information based on the second multiplexing feature on the second time-frequency resource. Thereby, the multiplexing feature can be changed within the time-frequency resource of the data transmission, thereby avoiding the performance loss caused by the multiplexing feature collision, and the diversity feature gain can also obtain the potential diversity gain.

Example 2

This embodiment exemplifies the hopping between two time slots by using repeated transmission as an example on the basis of Embodiment 1. For example, unscheduled transmissions can use repeated transmission methods to improve data transmission reliability.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of repeated transmission using the same multiplexing feature according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 7, when a certain terminal device j0 needs to transmit a certain transport block (TB), the same may be used. The transport block is repeatedly transmitted K (K ≥ 1) times. K transmissions can use the same or different redundancy versions (RV, redundancy version).

Assuming that the number of available multiplexing features is S, the index s of the multiplexing features (0 ≤ s ≤ S-1) can uniquely identify one of the multiplexing features. If no multiplexing feature hopping is used, the terminal device will always use the same multiplexing feature (indexed as s) in K transmissions. If another terminal device j1 also uses the multiplexing feature (indexed as s), then the two terminal devices may continue to have multiplexing feature collisions in K transmissions, so that the demodulation performance of both terminal devices is affected.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of repeated transmission using different multiplexing features according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 8, the multiplexing feature may hop in K repeated transmissions. As shown in FIG. 8, for a certain repeated transmission k (0 ≤ _k ≤ K-1), the multiplexing characteristics s _k (0 ≤ s _k ≤ S-1) can be independently selected and used, and different terminal devices The hopping of the multiplexed features is also independent of each other, so the probability of multiplexed feature collisions occurring continuously for K repeated transmissions can be effectively reduced. Since K times of transmissions are mutually replicas, single or multiple transmissions without multiplexing feature collisions can provide more reliable likelihood information for data demodulation, thereby improving the accuracy of demodulation decoding.

The above K times of repeated transmissions may occur on K slots, so the granularity of the multiplexing feature hopping is a time slot, that is, the multiplexing feature exhibits slot level hopping. The granularity of K repeated transmissions may also be smaller than the time slot; for example, as an extreme case, K times of repeated transmission may occur on K OFDM symbols, and the granularity of multiplexing feature hopping is symbol, ie, multiplexing Features exhibit symbol-level transitions.

In this embodiment, the hopping pattern and/or the hopping pattern of the multiplexing feature (ie, how to determine the multiplexing feature corresponding to the repeated transmission k) may be determined in the following manner.

In one embodiment, the network device configures the hopping pattern and/or the hopping pattern of the multiplexed features to the terminal device through semi-static and/or dynamic signaling. For example, the network device uses RRC signaling to combine the set {s ₀ , s ₁ , . . . , s _k-1 } containing the K multiplexed feature indices together with the parameters required for other unscheduled transmissions defined in the current standard. Configured for the terminal device.

In another embodiment, the hopping pattern and/or the hopping pattern of the multiplexed features are determined in a pseudo-random manner. For example, both the network device and the terminal device are capable of obtaining a hopping pattern of the same multiplexed feature in accordance with established rules. For example, for a certain set of multiplexing feature indexes known to both the network device and the terminal device, the multiplexing feature index used by the current repeated transmission k may be determined by at least one of the following parameters.

The reference signal (eg, demodulation reference signal DM-RS) used by the terminal device is indexed: for example, the reference signal is sent by the terminal device for data demodulation of the terminal device by the network device. The reference signal index may be a reference signal port index and/or a reference signal sequence index and/or an orthogonal cover code (OCC) index and/or a code division multiplexing (CDM) group index (eg, See TS 38.211 section 6.4.1). For the unscheduled transmission, the network device can identify the terminal device by blindly detecting the reference signal, and when the network device detects a certain reference signal, the reference signal index can be obtained. Since different terminal devices typically use different reference signals, determining the multiplexing characteristics based on the reference signals can prevent the different multiplexing devices from using the same multiplexing features to some extent.

Slot index: Enables the multiplexing feature to change between different time slots, thereby reducing the probability of a continuous collision.

Repeated transmission index: Considering that repeated transmission may not be granular in time slots, a repeated transmission index k (0 ≤ k ≤ K-1) may be used as a parameter for determining multiplexing characteristics.

Hop index: Considering that K times of repeated transmissions can use the frequency hopping mode, that is, different transmissions can use different frequency resources, corresponding to different hops, so the hop index can be used as the parameter for determining the multiplexing feature. .

Symbol index: Considering that the granularity of repeated transmission may be an OFDM symbol, the symbol index can be used as a parameter for determining the multiplexing feature.

System frame number (SFN): It is possible to support multiplexing feature randomization in a larger time range, for example, to make different multiplexing characteristics in different frames.

User ID (UE ID): The user ID may have a specific association relationship with the reference signal (for example, one-to-one mapping, etc.), so the user identifier may also be used as a parameter for determining the multiplexing feature.

Cell ID: The introduction of a cell identifier can avoid multiplexing feature collisions between adjacent cells to some extent.

Beam ID: The user transmission may use a beam, so the beam index can also be used as a parameter to determine the multiplexing characteristics.

It is to be noted that the above only exemplarily shows some parameters for determining the hopping information, but the invention is not limited thereto, and for example, other parameters may also be included; in addition, the above two or more parameters may be used in combination.

9 is an exemplary diagram of a multiplexed feature hopping not being used in an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 10 is an exemplary diagram of a multiplexed feature hopping using an embodiment of the present invention. An exemplary comparison of the use and non-use of multiplexed feature hopping can reveal the benefits of multiplexing feature hopping.

As shown in Figures 9 and 10, assuming that the number of repeated transmissions is K = 4, the number of available multiplexing features is S = 4. When the multiplexing feature hopping is not used, the multiplexed feature index sequence corresponding to the K times of transmission has at most four different patterns. If the multiplexing feature hopping is used, the multiplexed feature index sequence corresponding to the K-time transmission has at most 256 different patterns, so that the available multiplexed feature index sequence space is enlarged, and the probability of occurrence of continuous collision can be reduced.

In addition, it is assumed that only two terminal devices, terminal device 1 and terminal device 5, initiate data transmission in FIGS. 9 and 10, and if no multiplexing feature hopping is used, the multiplexing feature will continue to collide 4 times; if multiplexing features are used Jumping, only one collision occurs when k=0 transmission, and 3 copies of k=1, 2, 3 transmission can provide more reliable likelihood information for data demodulation.

Assuming that five terminal devices initiate data transmission at the same time, if the multiplexing feature hopping is not used, the multiplexed feature collision occurs in the four transmissions of the terminal device 1 and the terminal device 2, so that the performance of the two terminal devices may be seriously affected; With the multiplexing feature hopping, only the four transmissions of the terminal device 5 are affected by the multiplexing feature collision, and only one transmission of the other terminal devices is affected by the collision, so that the performance of only one terminal device may be seriously affected.

In this case, the multiplexed feature hopping can also occur between two hops, ie the two hops use independent multiplexing features, for example two hops in Figure 11 use two completely different multiplexing features.

For the case where K times of repeated transmission is not performed (ie, K=1), the terminal device has only one transmission opportunity. If the multiplexing feature can hop between two hops inside the time slot, the multiplexing can still be avoided to some extent. Feature collisions, such as collisions with only one hop. For the case of K times of repeated transmission, intra-slot frequency hopping can also be used, and can be used in conjunction with the inter-slot frequency hopping described in Embodiment 2, and the multiplexing feature can be hopped between hops in the time slot. And/or a jump occurs between hops between time slots. The multiplexing feature provides more freedom as the hop jumps to avoid collisions.

Similar to Embodiment 2, the hopping pattern and/or the hopping pattern of the multiplexing feature can be determined, and in addition, the network device can enable the intra-slot frequency hopping function of the terminal device by signaling. Only the hop-related content will be described below, and the other contents are the same as in the second embodiment.

In another embodiment, the hopping pattern and/or the hopping pattern of the multiplexed features may be determined in a pseudo-random manner.

As shown in FIG. 12, the terminal device performs data transmission in a certain time slot. Since the time slot contains multiple OFDM symbols, the multiplexing feature can be hopped between symbols.

For example, symbol 0 and symbol 1 in Fig. 12 use different multiplexing features, respectively. Through this symbol level multiplexing feature hopping, it is possible to avoid repeated collisions of the multiplexed features in all symbols. Similarly, the above symbol level multiplexed feature hopping can also be used with K times of repeated transmission and/or frequency hopping.
