Description

用户设备的定位方法及装置、存储介质和电子装置
本申请要求在2018年09月14日提交中国专利局、申请号为201811076343.0的中国专利申请的优先权，该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本公开涉及通信领域，具体而言，涉及一种用户设备的定位方法及装置、存储介质和电子装置。
背景技术
第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project，3GPP)自release 9开始引入对定位服务的支持，如今定位服务已经成为无线通讯网络中一种重要的增值服务。
小区标识(Cell Identity，Cell ID)和增强型小区标识(Enhanced Cell Identity，E-CID)是通讯网络中非常重要的定位方法。基本原理是利用服务小区的地理坐标估计用户设备(User Equipment，UE)的位置。E-CID使用一些附加的测量信息来进行定位，这些测量信息通常还有其他功能，但是通常不会单独为了定位进行测量。
第五代移动通信系统(5th generation mobile networks，5G)为了实现更快的数据传输速率，选择使用毫米波技术。
毫米波是指波长在毫米数量级的电磁波，毫米波频率大约在30GHz～300GHz之间。毫米波频段的一个特性是在空气中衰减严重，绕射能力弱，大气和雨水吸收影响较大。为了克服这些影响传播的因素，大阵列和窄波束被作为数据传输的一种重要技术。相关技术中的5G标准中已经确定支持毫米波段以窄波束轮询的方式发送同步信号/物理广播信道块(Synchronization Signal/Physical Broadcast Channel block，SS/PBCH block)来实现同步等功能。波束轮询的方式在一定程度上可以避免不同小区发射的同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，SSB)互相干扰。5G标准中还没有设计以5G信号测量为基础的定位方法。

传输装置106用于经由一个网络接收或者发送数据。上述的网络具体实例可包括移动终端10的通信供应商提供的无线网络。在一个实例中，传输装置106包括一个网络适配器(Network Interface Controller，NIC)，其可通过基站与其他网络设备相连从而可与互联网进行通讯。在一个实例中，传输装置106可以为射频(Radio Frequency，RF)模块，其用于通过无线方式与互联网进行通讯。
在本实施例中提供了一种运行于上述移动终端的UE的定位方法，图2是根据本发明实施例的一种UE的定位方法的流程图，如图2所示，该流程包括如下步骤：
步骤S202，在发起的定位请求后，UE接收定位管理单元(Location Management Function，LMF)发送的第一辅助信息；其中，所述第一辅助信息至少包括：由下一代无线接入网络(The Next Generation Radio Access Network，NG-RAN)节点向所述LMF上报的指定小区的同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，SSB)波束轮询信息。
步骤S204，所述UE对所述指定小区进行测量，并获取第一测量信息。
步骤S206，根据所述第一测量信息和第一辅助信息，所述UE确定该UE的位置。
通过本公开，通过利用UE测量的小区的测量信息以及由NG-RAN节点提供的小区的SSB波束轮询信息，同时，可以应用在网络中的多个网元或者设备上，因此，可以解决相关技术中无法基于5G信号对UE所在位置进行测量的问题，达到了在不增加资源开下的前提下实现了对设备定位，同时还能够提高定 位精度的效果。
可选地，在该SSB波束轮询信息至少包括：发送SSB的子载波间隔和循环前缀配置，SSB波束数量，所述指定小区的全部SSB索引以及SSB波束在地理坐标系中的覆盖角度。

可选地，在所述UE接收所述LMF发送的所述第一辅助信息之前，所述UE向所述LMF发送用于请求所述第一辅助信息的辅助信息请求消息。
需要说明的是，如果UE没有请求或者UE处于“忙”的状态等原因导致UE无法主动请求获取第一辅助信息的话，LMF可以自行向UE发送第一辅助信息。
具体而言，LMF可以通过判断是否与UE预先确定的UE请求时间超时，并在判断结果为是的情况下，自行向UE发送第一辅助信息。
具体而言，LMF还可以通过向UE发送询问指令，并根据UE响应的询问结果，确定是否向UE发送第一辅助信息。
需要说明的是，其他基于本实施例思路的，能够实现LMF向UE主动发送第一辅助信息的方式，均在本实施例的保护范围之内。
可选地，所述指定小区至少包括以下其中之一：所述UE所在的服务小区，以及所述UE所在的服务小区的相邻小区。
具体而言，如果UE经过测量只获取到服务小区对应的第一测量信息的话，那么本实施例主要是针对UE所在的服务小区下对UE的定位，即单小区SSB定位。而如果UE经过测量还获取到相邻小区对应的第一测量信息的话，那么本实施例中所应用的方案是针对在多个小区下对UE的定位，即多小区SSB定位。再而，如果UE经过测量只获取到相邻小区对应的第一测量信息的话，那么本实 施例主要是针对的是UE所在的服务小区的相邻小区下对UE的定位。故而，根据实际的使用需求，UE可以使用不同的测量策略，分别对位于不同小区进行测量，以获取不同的第一测量信息。从而实现了对不同小区下对UE的定位。
可选地，所述第一辅助信息还至少包括以下其中之一：所述服务小区的地理坐标，以及所述相邻小区的地理坐标。

可选地，如果UE测量到的测量结果超出所述指定小区中的任意一个SSB时，UE选择所述指定小区中强度最高或者强度大于强度阈值的SSB作为第一测量信息中的所述指定小区的SSB索引。
具体而言，UE根据所搜索到的指定小区的SSB索引和第一辅助信息中的其他信息，还有SSB波束在地理坐标系中覆盖的位置的重叠范围估计UE位置。
具体地，UE可以使用SSB中主同步信号(Primary Synchronization Signal，PSS)和辅同步信号(Secondary Synchronization Signal，SSS)，物理广播信道(Physical Broadcast Channel，PBCH)和PBCH的解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal，DMRS)全部或者其中某些信号的RSRP和RSRQ来更精确地估算UE位置。

可选地，所述指定小区至少包括以下其中之一：所述UE所在的服务小区，以及所述UE所在的服务小区的相邻小区。
具体而言，如果UE经过测量只获取到服务小区对应的第二测量信息的话，那么本实施例主要是针对UE所在的服务小区下对UE的定位，即单小区SSB定位。而如果UE经过测量还获取到相邻小区对应的第二测量信息的话，那么本实施例中所应用的方案是针对在多个小区下对UE的定位，即多小区SSB定位。再而，如果UE经过测量只获取到相邻小区对应的第二测量信息的话，那么本实施例主要是针对的是UE所在的服务小区的相邻小区下对UE的定位。故而，根据实际的使用需求，UE可以使用不同的测量策略，分别对不同小区进行测量，以获取不同的第二测量信息。从而实现了对不同小区下对UE的定位。
可选地，所述LMF从所述UE和/或NG-RAN节点获取所述第二测量消息。

具体地，UE对所述相邻小区的SSB进行检测盲检的规则还可以是LMF与UE在定位之前交互确定的检测规则。
可选地，如果UE测量到的测量结果超出所述指定小区中的任意一个SSB时，UE选择所述指定小区中强度最高或者强度大于强度阈值的SSB作为第二测量信息中的所述指定小区的SSB索引。
可选地，所述第二测量消息包括以下其中之一：所述指定小区的小区标识信息，所述指定小区的SSB索引，以及SSB中一个或者多个信号的RSRP和RSRQ。

为了更好的理解上述实施例中提供的方案，还提供了如下的场景1对上述实施例进行更详尽的说明：
场景1：
基于单小区，通过UE对UE进行定位。图5是根据本发明实施例的一种基于场景1的UE的定位的流程图，如图5所示：
步骤1：NG-RAN node将自身的SSB轮询配置信息发送给LMF。具体地，子载波间隔为120KHz，常规CP，SSB发送周期为5ms，全部SSB索引k 1-k 8，发送k ssb个SSB波束
步骤2：UE发起定位请求。
步骤3：UE通过LPP或者NRPP消息向LMF发送请求第一辅助信息的请求。
步骤:4：LMF通过LPP或者NRPP消息携带的第一辅助信息将SSB轮询配置信息发送给UE。
步骤5：UE在接收到第一辅助消息后，对该UE所在的服务小区的SSB波束进行测量，获取到包括了SSB index为k 3，测得PSS接收能量和接收质量分别为RSRP 1和RSRQ 1的第一测量信息。
步骤6：UE根据SSB轮询配置信息和第一测量信息对该UE的定位结果进行估计。
图6是根据本发明实施例的一种基于SSB波束对UE进行定位的示意图。UE根据SSB轮询配置信息确定了如图6所示的在当前的服务小区中包括了k 1-k 8一共8个SSB波束。UE根据在步骤4中生成的第一测量信息中的SSB index，从而能够确定UE定位于对应编号为k 3的SSB波束上。同时，根据第一测量信息中的RSRP 1和RSRQ 1(图6中通过圆型范围示出)，UE可以在SSB波束上能够对UE进行更加精确地定位。
场景2：
基于单小区，通过LMF对UE进行定位。图7是根据本发明实施例的一种基于场景2的UE的定位的流程图，如图7所示：
步骤1：NG-RAN node将自身的SSB轮询配置信息发送给LMF。具体地，子载波间隔为120KHz，常规循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix，CP)，SSB发送周期为5ms，全部SSB索引k 1-k 8，发送k ssb个SSB波束。
步骤2：NG-RAN node向UE发起定位请求。
步骤3：UE对cell 1进行测量，获取到的cell 1的第二测量结果至少包括： 定位能力支持使用multi-beam SSB信息的E-CID定位，t 1时刻，UE测量服务小区cell 1的SSB波束，SSB index k 3。
步骤4：UE对cell 2进行测量，获取到的cell 2的第二测量结果至少包括：定位能力支持使用multi-beam SSB信息的E-CID定位，t 2时刻，UE测量服务小区cell 2的SSB波束，SSB index k 5。
步骤5：UE通过LPP或者NRPP消息将cell 1和cell 2的第二测量信息发送至LMF。
步骤6：LMF根据SSB轮询配置信息和cell 1以及cell 2的第二测量信息对该UE的定位结果进行估计。
图8是根据本发明实施例的另一种基于SSB波束对UE进行定位的示意图。UE根据SSB轮询配置信息确定了如图8所示的在cell 1和cell 2中包括了当前的服务小区中包括了k 1-k 8一共8个SSB波束。UE基于在步骤3中生成的cell 1的第二测量信息中的SSB index k 3以及步骤4中生成的cell 2的第二测量信息中的SSB index k 5，从而能够确定UE定位于cell 1对应编号为k 3的SSB波束和cell 2对应编号为k5的SSB波束的交集(图8中的圆形部分)之上。
图9是根据本发明实施例的再一种基于SSB波束对UE进行定位的示意图。UE根据SSB轮询配置信息确定了如图9所示的在cell 1和cell 2中包括了当前的服务小区中包括了k 1-k 8一共8个SSB波束。如果在cell 1和cell 2的第二测量信息中均设置了如场景1中第一测量消息中的PSS接收能量和接收质量分别为RSRP 1和RSRQ 1的情况下，根据RSRP 1和RSRQ 1(图9中矩形部分)，UE可以在cell 1和cell 2的SSB波束上能够对UE进行更加精确地定位。
场景3：
基于单小区，通过NG-RAN node对UE进行定位。图10是根据本发明实施例的一种基于场景3的UE的定位的流程图，如图10所示：
步骤1：NG-RAN node向UE发起定位请求。
步骤2：UE对该UE所在的服务小区的SSB波束进行测量，获取到包括了SSB index为k 3，测得PSS接收能量和接收质量分别为RSRP 1和RSRQ1的第三测量信息。
步骤3：UE通过preamble向NG-RAN node发送携带有SSB index为k 3，测得PSS接收能量和接收质量分别为RSRP 1和RSRQ 1的第三测量信息。
步骤4：NG-RAN node根据自身具备的SSB轮询配置信息(即子载波间隔为120KHz，常规CP，SSB发送周期为5ms，所述指定小区的全部SSB索引k 1-k 8， 发送k ssb个SSB波束)、自身地理位置和第三测量信息对该UE的定位结果进行估计。
需要说明的是，以上实施例只是列举，任何基于上述实施例思路所所处的合理变化或者其他形式的举例均在本实施例的保护范围之内。
