Description

波束失败恢复方法、装置和通信系统 技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,特别涉及一种波束失败恢复方法、装置和通信系统。
背景技术
波束失败(Beam Failure)主要是指在高频通信场景下,通信链路容易受到物理条件,例如天气,障碍物,方向角度的变化等因素的影响,从而在原有的波束方向上传输失败。
波束失败恢复(Beam Failure Recovery,BFR)技术主要是指,在波束失败的情况下,利用对不同方向波束功率的测量结果,迅速定位新的可靠的波束方向,从而完成对链路的快速恢复。
终端设备检测与下行控制信道(PDCCH)相关联的参考信号(RS),从而确定是否发生波束失败;在确定波束失败发生时,向网络设备发送波束失败请求,并监听网络设备对于该波束失败请求的反馈;当终端设备通过下行控制信息(DCI)接收到网络设备发送的与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)后,将原有的用于数据接收的波束的方向切换到另一个候选的波束的方向,由此,能够快速地恢复失败的链路,减少链路失败所带来的时延和系统吞吐量的下降。
应该注意,上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明,并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本申请的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
本申请的发明人发现,在现有的波束失败恢复技术中,接收波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)所使用的资源与波束恢复成功后所重置的控制信道资源是相同的,但是,当上述两者不相同时,终端设备如何重置下行链路的空间方向并没有做出描述。
此外,本申请的发明人还发现,现有的波束失败恢复技术仅能用于一个载波。在多载波场景下,在某一时刻,不同的载波上的连接可能仅有一部分发生波束失败,在 这种情况下,终端设备在接收到波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)后,如何设置下行链路的空间方向并没有明确的规定。
另外,在多载波场景中,一个子载波中可能没有用于接收控制信道资源,如何重置该子载波的数据信道的空间方向,目前也没有明确的规定。
另外一个场景是,一个终端设备最多有可能配置32个子载波,对每个子载波分别进行波束失败测量、恢复可能会导致终端与网络侧过于频繁地交互,目前还没有可靠的方法解决此问题。
为了解决上述技术问题中的至少一者,本申请实施例提供一种波束失败恢复方法、装置和通信系统,在本实施例的波束失败恢复方法中,终端设备在接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,对波束方向进行切换,因而,即使在接收BFR response的控制信道资源与重置的控制信道资源不相同的情况下,或者在多个载波的场景下,终端设备都能有足够的时间可靠地进行波束方向的切换,从而提升系统性能。
根据本申请实施例的第一方面,提供了一种波束失败恢复装置,设置于终端设备,该装置包括:接收单元,在终端设备接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,直至激活或重配置信令之前,所述接收单元在所述终端设备的第一小区中根据与选择出的参考信号(q_new)或高层指示的参考信号(q_new)相同的天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数监听和/或接收下行信号。
根据本申请实施例的第二方面,提供一种波束失败恢复装置,应用于网络设备,该装置包括:第一指示单元,其向终端设备发送用于指示所述终端设备的两个以上小区之间联合进行波束失败恢复的信令;或者,该装置包括:第二指示单元,其向所述终端设备发送用于指示监听和/或接收下行信号的小区、和/或带宽部分、和/或控制资源集(CORESET)的信令。
波束失败恢复方法,应用于终端设备,该方法包括:在终端设备接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,直至激活或重配置信令之前,所述终端设备在第一小区中根据与选择出的参考信号(q_new)或高层指示的参考信号(q_new)相同的天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数监听和/或接收下行信号。
根据本申请实施例的第三方面,提供了一种通信系统,该通信系统包括终端设备和网络设备,该终端设备包括如上述实施例的第一方面所述的波束失败恢复装置。
本申请实施例的有益效果在于:终端设备在接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,对波束方向进行切换,因而,终端设备都能有足够的时间可靠地进行波束方向的切换,从而提升系统性能。

实施例1
本申请实施例1提供一种波束失败恢复(Beam Failure Recovery,BFR)方法,该方法可以由终端设备执行。
图2是本实施例的波束失败恢复方法的一个示意图,如图2所示,该方法包括:
步骤201、在终端设备接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,直至激活或重配置信令之前,该终端设备在第一小区中根据与选择出的或高层指示的参考信号(q_new)相同的天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数监听和/或接收下行信号。
在本实施例中,终端设备在第一小区中根据与选择出的或高层指示的参考信号q_new相同的天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数监听和/或接收下行信号,是指终端设备将波束方向切换到与参考信号q_new对应的波束方向,由此,实现波束方向的切换。
根据本实施例,终端设备在接收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的一段时间之后,对波束方向进行切换,因而,在单载波场景下,如果接收波束失败 恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的控制信道资源不同于收到该响应后终端设备重置的控制信道资源终端设备能在该一段时间中进行相应的信号处理,从而有足够的时间来调整波束的方向,因而能够可靠地进行波束方向的切换;此外,在多个载波(例如,2个以上的载波)的场景下,终端设备也能有足够的时间可靠地进行波束方向的切换,从而提升系统性能。
图3的(A)是本实施例的波束失败恢复方法应用于单载波场景的一个示意图。如图3的(A)所示,终端设备在时刻t1收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response),在一段时间k之后且在收到激活或重配置信令的时刻t2之前的时间段k1中,该终端设备将天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数调节为与选择出的或高层指示的参考信号q_new相同,从而切换波束的方向,并且在切换后的波束方向上监听和/或接收下行信号。
如图3的(A)所示,在检测是否发生波束失败时所使用的下行控制信息(DCI)与接收波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)所使用的下行控制信息(DCI)不相同的情况下,终端设备能在该一段时间k中进行相应的信号处理,从而有足够的时间来调整波束的方向,由此,能够在时间段k1中,在切换后的波束方向上可靠地监听和/或接收下行信号。其中,终端设备在该一段时间k中进行的信号处理例如包括:对收到的该BFR response进行解调(decoding),之后根据该参考信号q_new为调整相应的下行接收波束做准备。或者,可以说该一段时间k是,收到BFR response之后,终端设备用于应用q_new所对应的QCL信息所需的时间。
如图3的(A)所示,终端设备接收与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response)的小区与监听和/或接收下行信号的小区为同一小区,例如小区300。
图3的(B)是本实施例的波束失败恢复方法应用于多载波场景的一个示意图。如图3的(B)所示,终端设备在时刻t1收到与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response),在一段时间k之后且在收到激活或重配置信令的时刻t2之前的时间段k1中,该终端设备将天线准共址(Quasi-co-located,QCL)参数调节为与选择出的或高层指示的参考信号q_new相同,从而切换波束的方向,并且在切换后的波束方向上监听和/或接收下行信号。
如图3的(B)所示,终端设备可以在第二小区302接收与波束失败恢复相关的响应(BFR response),在第一小区301监听和/或接收下行信号。第二小区302和第 一小区301可以不同,例如,第二小区302为主小区PCell或辅小区SCell#0,第一小区301为辅小区SCell#1。
如图3的(B)所示,在第一小区与第二小区不同的情况下,终端设备能在该一段时间k中进行相应的信号处理,从而有足够的时间来调整波束的方向,由此,能够在时间段k1中,在切换后的波束方向上可靠地监听和/或接收下行信号。其中,终端设备在该一段时间k中进行的信号处理例如包括:对收到的该BFR response进行解调(decoding),之后根据该参考信号q_new为调整相应的下行接收波束做准备。或者,可以说该一段时间k是,收到BFR response之后,终端设备用于应用q_new所对应的QCL信息所需的时间。
在本实施例中,第一小区301和第二小区302属于相同的小区组(Cell Group),该小区组例如可以是主小区组(MCG)或辅小区组(SCG)。
在本实施例中,该终端设备所监听或接收的下行信号包括下述信号中的至少一种:物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)、物理下行数据信道(PDSCH)、信道状态信息参考信号(CSI-RS)、以及同步信号块(SSB)。此外,本实施例可以不限于此,下行信号也可以是其它信号。
在本实施例的下述说明中,将以下行信号是物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)和/或物理下行数据信道(PDSCH)为例来说明在多载波场景下本实施例的波束失败恢复方法。此外,对于下行信号是信道状态信息参考信号(CSI-RS)或同步信号块(SSB)情况下波束失败恢复方法的说明,可以参考物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)或物理下行数据信道(PDSCH)对应的波束失败恢复方法的说明。
