技术领域
本公开的一些实施例涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种非周期跟踪参考信号的接收方法及终端。
背景技术
面向未来的第五代(5Generation,5G)移动通信系统中,为了提高系统的可靠性,需要根据参考信号,对系统的频率偏移,时间偏移,多普勒频移,多普勒扩展,时延扩展进行精确的估计。同时为了减小开销,避免占用时频资源较多的参考信号(例如小区参考信号(Cell Reference Signal,CRS))的出现,引入了一种新的参考信号,也即跟踪参考信号(tracking reference signal,TRS)。在接收端,可以根据TRS来精确估计信道参数,提高解调的准确度。
为了提高频谱效率,满足更大峰值速率的需求,提出了载波聚合的技术。载波聚合是将2个或更多成员载波(Component Carrier,CC)聚合在一起,以支持更大的传输带宽。实际上,每个载波单元对应一个独立的小区。载波聚合中的小区可分为主小区(Primary Cell,PCell)与辅小区(Secondary Cell,SCell)。主小区是终端(UE)进行初始连接建立的小区,负责与UE间的无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)通信。辅小区是在RRC重新配置时添加的,用于提供额外的无线资源,辅小区与UE间不存在任何RRC通信。UE的主小区总处于激活态,不支持激活与去激活;而辅小区需要激活与去激活,激活与去激活通过媒体接入控制层(Media Access Control,MAC)控制单元(Control Element,CE)信令执行。
在辅小区激活时,如果配置周期TRS进行辅小区的时频跟踪,MAC CE信令生效之前,如果已经接收周期TRS,此时,还需等到下一个TRS周期(时 延最长可达一个TRS周期)接收TRS,对辅小区的下行信道进行时频跟踪,造成资源浪费。

下面结合附图介绍本公开的实施例。本公开的一些实施例提供的非周期跟踪参考信号的接收方法及终端可以应用于无线通信系统中。该无线通信系统可以为采用5G系统,或者演进型长期演进(Evolved Long Term Evolution,eLTE)系统,或者后续演进通信系统。

需要说明的是,上述通信系统可以包括多个UE,网络侧设备和可以与多个UE通信(传输信令或传输数据)。
本公开的一些实施例提供的网络侧设备10可以为基站,该基站可以为通常所用的基站,也可以为演进型基站(evolved node base station,eNB),还可以为5G系统中的网络侧设备(例如下一代基站(next generation node base station,gNB)或发送和接收点(transmission and reception point,TRP))或者小区cell等设备。或者后续演进通信系统中的网络侧设备。然用词不够成限制。
本公开的一些实施例提供的终端可以为手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、 超级移动个人计算机(Ultra-Mobile Personal Computer,UMPC)、上网本或者个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)等。所属领域技术人员可以理解,用词并不构成限制。
请参考图1,图1为本公开的非周期跟踪参考信号的接收方法的流程示意图,该接收方法应用于终端,包括:
步骤21:接收下行控制信息,所述下行控制信息中包含用于触发辅小区中非周期跟踪参考信号的信息;
本公开的一些实施例中,可以由DCI Format 0-1中的CSI请求字段(CSI request field)触发所述辅小区中非周期跟踪参考信号。
本公开的一些实施例中,因为辅小区可能是自载波调度也可能是跨载波调度,如果辅小区配置为自调度的小区(cell),那么辅小区的控制信息和数据信息都在该辅小区传输。如果辅小区配置为跨载波调度,那么辅小区的控制信息在其他小区(如主小区)传输,数据信息在该辅小区传输。因此,本公开的一些实施例中的所述下行控制信息,可在主小区接收,也可在辅小区接收。
步骤22:根据所述下行控制信息,在所述辅小区接收非周期跟踪参考信号;
本公开的一些实施例中,非周期跟踪参考信号在物理下行共享信道(PDSCH)中传输。
步骤23:判断是否满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,如果是,进入步骤24,否则,进入步骤25;所述生效条件至少包括:所述非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻,在所述终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐之后。
本公开的一些实施例中,所述终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐,是指所述终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐的时刻。
步骤24:若满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,判定所述非周期跟踪参考信号生效;
步骤25:若不满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,判定所述非周期跟踪参考信号不生效。
所谓非周期跟踪参考信号生效是指非周期跟踪参考信号可用,即可用于辅小区的时频跟踪。所谓非周期跟踪参考信号不生效是指非周期跟踪参考信 号不可用,不可用于辅小区的时频跟踪。
所谓射频调谐是指发射端将调制好的信号发射之后,接收端为了接收信号效果最好,使接收器与信号共振,这时接收的信号效果最好,其他杂波的干扰较小。
也就是说,终端不期望在与所述辅小区完成射频调谐之前,接收非周期跟踪参考信号,因为终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐之前,终端接收的信号效果不理想,杂波的干扰较大,当终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐之后,终端接收的信号效果好,接收的非周期跟踪参考信号可以作为可用的非周期跟踪参考信号,否则作为不可用的非周期跟踪参考信号。
目前,非周期跟踪参考信号已经在3GPP RAN1 92bis会议中达成一致。在频率范围2,支持非周期跟踪参考信号作为可选的终端功能。终端不期望被触发非周期跟踪参考信号,除非终端在相同BWP已经配置了相关联的具有相同冲激(burst)长度的周期TRS。其中冲激(burst)可称作突发。非周期跟踪参考信号与相关联的周期TRS具有相同的带宽,符号位置,子载波位置和burst长度。非周期跟踪参考信号与相关联的周期TRS的准共置(QCL)关系为:QCL type A+D。
本公开的一些实施例中,采用非周期跟踪参考信号对辅小区进行时频跟踪,非周期跟踪参考信号由下行控制信息触发,因此,UE可以及时接收非周期跟踪参考信号,对辅小区进行时频跟踪,不必像周期TRS一样等待下一个周期到来,解决了周期跟踪参考信号灵活性差的问题,同时,对可用的非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻进行了明确,从而可以根据可用的非周期跟踪参考信号,进行辅小区的时频跟踪,提高了通信准确性和效能。
请参考图3,图3为本公开的非周期跟踪参考信号的接收方法的另一流程示意图,该接收方法应用于终端,包括:
步骤31:接收配置信息,所述配置信息中至少包括:所述下行控制信息的接收时刻与所述非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻的时间偏移信息(A-TRS time offset);
本公开的一些实施例中,网络侧设备可以通过RRC信令发送配置信息,所述配置信息中还可以包括:辅小区中非周期跟踪参考信号的比特数,和/或, 所述非周期跟踪参考信号的频域位置等信息。
步骤32:接收下行控制信息,所述下行控制信息中包含用于触发辅小区中非周期跟踪参考信号的信息;
步骤33:根据所述下行控制信息的接收时刻和所述时间偏移信息,确定所述非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻;在确定的所述接收时刻,在所述辅小区接收所述非周期跟踪参考信号。
步骤34:判断是否满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,如果是,进入步骤35,否则,进入步骤36;所述生效条件至少包括:所述非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻,在所述终端与所述辅小区完成射频调谐之后。
步骤35:若满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,判定所述非周期跟踪参考信号生效;
步骤36:若不满足非周期跟踪参考信号的生效条件,判定所述非周期跟踪参考信号不生效。
本公开的一些实施例中,根据接收到的配置信息中携带的下行控制信息的接收时刻与非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻的时间偏移信息,和下行控制信息的接收时刻,可以确定非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻,从而准确地进行非周期跟踪参考信号的接收。
上述实施例中,将非周期跟踪参考信号的接收时刻,作为判定接收到的非周期跟踪参考信号是否生效的一个条件,在本公开的其他一些实施例中,也可以将所述下行控制信息的接收时刻,作为判定接收的非周期跟踪参考信号是否生效的另一个条件。
