技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种时延补偿及其控制方法及装置。
背景技术
卫星通信系统(Non-terrestrial networks,NTN)具有远大于常规蜂窝通信系统的小区半径,引入了超大的传播时延,从而影响了随机接入过程和后续数据传输过程中的上行定时机制。
参见图1,针对卫星通信系统覆盖一个小区的特定下行波束,存在用户链路和馈电链路两种链路。其中,用户链路(Service link)指移动终端与卫星间的链路连接;馈电链路(Feeder link)指卫星与网关(或者信关站)间的链路连接。如图1所示,NTN系统存在两种类型的随机接入同步时延:第一部分是用户链路的绝对时延T1;第二部分是馈电链路的绝对时延T2。图1中的两种时延之和(T1+T2)取决于卫星的垂直高度,以及卫星距离用户设备(User Equipment,UE)和信关站的水平距离,典型取值为20ms以上。
新空口(New Radio,NR)系统中的物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access CHannel,PRACH)、物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared CHannel,PUSCH)、物理上行链路控制信道(Physical Uplink Control CHannel,PUCCH)、 探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)的CP长度介绍如下:
5G NR协议定义的PRACH随机接入序列(Preamble)格式由一个循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix,CP)和一个或者多个Preamble序列组成,每个Preamble序列占用一个PRACH正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing,OFDM)符号。保护时间(Guard Time,GT)在协议中没有显式地定义,而是通过PRACH Preamble所在的时隙和其它时隙对齐,隐含地包含在PRACH Preamble格式中。
下面的表1和表2分别给出了5G NR支持的长PRACH序列和短PRACH序列对应的PRACH CP长度。由表1和表2可知,最大的PRACH CP长度为0.684ms。
表1:长PRACH序列对应的PRACH CP长度
Figure PCTCN2020079367-appb-000001
表2:短PRACH序列对应的PRACH CP长度
Figure PCTCN2020079367-appb-000002
Figure PCTCN2020079367-appb-000003
针对PUSCH、PUCCH和SRS,当子载波间隔SCS=15KHz时,常规CP长度为144Ts=4.69us,其中,1Ts=1/30.72e6s;扩展CP长度为512Ts=16.67us。
综上所述,在地面蜂窝通信系统中,通常采用绝对时延补偿方法,这在卫星通信系统中不太实用。由于NTN系统中的T1和T2取值较大,如果采用绝对时延补偿T1和T2的方案,会导致CP和GT开销过大,并且UE硬件实现的复杂度高。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,并不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请实施例提供了一种时延补偿及其控制方法及装置,用以基于用户链路的相对时延和馈电链路的相对时延进行时延补偿,提供了NTN系统的一种上行定时机制,保证了NTN系统的同步建立过程的可靠性和后续数据传输过程的定时准确度。
其中,方法和装置是基于同一申请构思的,由于方法和装置解决问题的原理相似,因此装置和方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
本申请实施例提供的技术方案可以适用于多种系统,尤其是5G系统。例如适用的系统可以是全球移动通讯(global system of mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)通用分组无线业务(general packet radio service,GPRS)系统、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)、通用移动系统(universal mobile telecommunication system,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access,WiMAX)系统、5G系统以及5G NR系统等。这多种系统中均包括终端设备和网络设备。
本申请实施例涉及的终端设备,可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备。在不同的系统中,终端设备的名称可能也不相同,例如在5G系统中,终端设备可以称为用户设备(user equipment,UE)。无线终端设备可以经RAN与一个或多个核心网进行通信,无线终端设备可以是移动终端设备,如移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有移动终端设备的计算机,例如,可以 是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。例如,个人通信业务(personal communication service,PCS)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(session initiated protocol,SIP)话机、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)等设备。无线终端设备也可以称为系统、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station),移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点(access point)、远程终端设备(remote terminal)、接入终端设备(access terminal)、用户终端设备(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户装置(user device),本申请实施例中并不限定。
本申请实施例涉及的网络设备,可以是基站,该基站可以包括多个小区。根据具体应用场合不同,基站又可以称为接入点,或者可以是指接入网中在空中接口上通过一个或多个扇区与无线终端设备通信的设备,或者其它名称。网络设备可用于将收到的空中帧与网际协议(internet protocol,IP)分组进行相互转换,作为无线终端设备与接入网的其余部分之间的路由器,其中接入网的其余部分可包括网际协议(IP)通信网络。网络设备还可协调对空中接口的属性管理。例如,本申请实施例涉及的网络设备可以是GSM或CDMA中的网络设备(base transceiver station,BTS),也可以是WCDMA中的网络设备(NodeB),还可以是LTE系统中的演进型网络设备(evolutional node B,eNB或e-NodeB)、5G网络架构(next generation system)中的5G基站,也可是家庭演进基站(home evolved node B,HeNB)、中继节点(relay node)、家庭基站(femto)、微微基站(pico)等,本申请实施例中并不限定。
下面结合说明书附图对本申请各个实施例进行详细描述。需要说明的是,本申请实施例的展示顺序仅代表实施例的先后顺序,并不代表实施例所提供的技术方案的优劣。
本申请实施例设计了一种NTN系统的上行定时机制。核心思想是:UE补偿用户链路的相对时延和馈电链路的相对时延,信关站(包含gNB)不做 补偿。其中,补偿实施可以包括两个步骤:一个是用户级时延补偿,针对同一个小区内的不同用户在用户链路的时延差异;另一个是小区级时延补偿,针对同一个小区内所有用户的馈电链路进行共同补偿。其中,可以基于相对时延进行直接补偿,也可以基于相对时延额外补偿一个偏移值,使得所有用户的信号到达信关站时和整数倍时隙对齐。
需要说明的是,信关站是物理实体,网关和gNB是逻辑功能实体,gNB负责控制调度功能,网关是信号转发实体,后续如果没有特别说明,信关站包含网关和gNB的两种功能实体。
本申请实施例中,终端把用户链路的相对时延T3和馈电链路的相对时延T4上报给网络。具体有以下两点原因:
第一,如果终端没有上报给网络,则终端在自行补偿该相对时延后,网络侧无法获得定时后的真实TA值,对完成随机接入过程的后续上行数据传输的调度带来了困难;
第二,在传统的地面通信系统中,网络(gNB)进行TA维护,因而无需终端进行TA上报。此外,由于终端无法获得当前小区的半径大小,上报TA值不具备可行性。
下面分别给出用户链路的相对时延T3和馈电链路的相对时延T4的计算方案:
A)用户链路的相对时延T3
定义用户链路的相对时延T3为用户链路的绝对距离与用户链路的参考距离的差值再除以光速,即
T3=(d3-d3_ref)/c=t3-t3_ref          (1)
其中,c表示光速,取值为3.0*10^8(米/秒);d3表示用户链路的绝对距离,即卫星到达用户的直线连接距离;t3=d3/c,t3表示用户链路的绝对时延,对应于图1中的T1;d3_ref表示用户链路的参考距离,即卫星到达覆盖区域中的某一个位置的直线连接距离,其中,该位置可以位于地面或者空中任意一个位置;t3_ref=d3_ref/c,t3_ref表示用户链路的参考时延。
用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref可以采用以下四种方法之一获取:
Method A.1)、协议预先定义用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref为一个固定取值,优选地,可以采用基于卫星的固定值或者基于小区的固定值。
Method A.2)、UE通过网络侧下发的广播信令或其他下行信令获取用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref,优选地,采用卫星到达地面小区的最短距离作为参考距离d3_ref,或者卫星到达地面小区的最短时延作为参考时延t3_ref。
Method A.3)、协议预先定义用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref为与纬度关联的值,UE根据当前所在的纬度位置来获取当前的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref。
Method A.4)、UE根据星历信息获得用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref,优选地,UE根据星历信息获得卫星到达本UE所在的地面小区的最短距离作为参考距离d3_ref,或者UE根据星历信息获得卫星到达本UE所在的地面小区的最短时延作为参考时延t3_ref。
其中,关于星历信息,卫星的轨道模型也叫星历模型,提供了用于让终端确定卫星的精确位置的信息,以使终端能够进行卫星锁定和定位。相关参数是辅助数据中的重要内容之一。
B)馈电链路的相对时延T4
定义馈电链路的相对时延T4为馈电链路的绝对距离与馈电链路的参考距离的差值再除以光速,即
T4=(d4-d4_ref)/c=t4-t4_ref           (2)
其中,c表示光速,取值为3.0*10^8(米/秒);d4表示馈电链路的绝对距离,即信关站到达目标卫星的直线连接距离;t4=d4/c,t4表示馈电链路的绝对时延,对应于图1中的T2;d4_ref表示馈电链路的参考距离,考虑到同一个卫星在不同时刻的轨道位置不同,并且不同的卫星在同一个时刻的轨道位 置也不相同,因此,馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref可以定义为信关站到达目标卫星轨道上的某一个点的直线连接距离,或者定义为在某一时刻信关站到达某个卫星的直线连接距离;或者定义为基于信关站和卫星之间的绝对距离推导出的一个参考距离,具体实现方式或算法可以根据实际需要而定。t4_ref=d4_ref/c,t4_ref表示馈电链路的参考时延。
馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref可以采用以下三种方法之一获取。
Method B.1)、UE通过网络侧下发的广播信令或其他下行信令获取信关站(包含gNB)的实际位置,基于该信关站的实际位置确定馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref,该方法进一步可以包含两种情况:
CASE B.1-1:当一个信关站关联到多个卫星时,为了保证来自于不同卫星的馈电链路在信关站的上行接收信号同时到达,采用一个信关站关联的多个卫星的馈电链路绝对距离或者绝对时延的最小值作为参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref;
CASE B.1-2:当一个信关站关联到一个卫星时,并且同一个目标卫星在不同的时刻到达信关站的距离发生变化时,UE通过信关站的位置和目标卫星的星历信息,可以预估出馈电链路绝对距离的变化来补偿,以保证来自于同一个目标卫星的不同时刻的馈电链路在信关站的上行接收信号同时到达。
假设t1表示信关站发送该广播信令的时刻,t2表示UE接收到该广播信令的时刻,t2=t1+delta_t,其中,delta_t表示该广播信令从信关站发送到UE经过的空口时延。此时,公式(2)中的d4表示t2时刻目标卫星到达信关站的馈电链路的直线连接距离,t4=d4/c表示t2时刻馈电链路的绝对时延;d4_ref表示t1时刻目标卫星到达信关站的馈电链路的直线连接距离,t4_ref=d4_ref/c表示t1时刻馈电链路的参考时延。
CASE B.1-3:当一个信关站关联到一个卫星时,参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref可以为0,此时,馈电链路的相对时延T4等于馈电链路的绝对时延t4。当用户链路的参考时延和馈电链路的参考时延同时为0时,NTN系 统中UE的子帧定时关系和网络的子帧定时关系保持一致。
Method B.2)、UE通过网络侧下发的广播信令或其他下行信令获取信关站(包含gNB)到卫星的馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref。
Method B.3)、协议预先定义馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref为与纬度关联的值,UE根据当前所在的纬度位置来获取当前的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref。
上述三种方法中,Method B.1)适用于PUSCH/PUCCH/SRS采用常规CP格式,Method B.2)和Method B.3)适用于PUSCH/PUCCH/SRS采用扩展CP格式。
针对上述计算用户链路的参考距离或者参考时延的Method A的四种方法和计算馈电链路的参考距离或者参考时延的Method B包含的三种方法,通过两两组合可以得到十二种方案。
C)UE基于用户链路的相对时延和馈电链路的相对时延进行时延补偿的方法:
UE根据A)和B)获得的用户链路的相对时延T3和馈电链路的相对时延T4,进行时延补偿,包括:
针对用户链路的相对时延T3和馈电链路的相对时延T4的加和(T3+T4)基础上再添加一个偏移量T_offset,即总时延补偿值T_total为:
T_total=T3+T4+T_offset           (3)
其中,偏移值T_offset的作用是使得所有用户的信号到达信关站的时刻和整数倍时隙对齐,T_offset可以是用户单独计算得到或者通过网络侧的广播信令或其他下行信令通知。
或者,获取网络侧通知的参数T_ref_total,其中,T_ref_total=t3_ref+t4_ref-T_offset,t3_ref表示用户链路的参考时延,t4_ref表示馈电链路的参考时延,T_offset表示预设偏移量;利用所述T_ref_total,确定总的相对时延补偿值T_total,其中,T_total=t3+t4-T_ref_total;
UE基于总的相对时延补偿值T_total进行发送端信号的时延补偿。
也就是说,本申请实施例中,网络侧可以采用下列两种方法通知用于指示终端基于卫星通信系统NTN中用户链路的相对时延和馈电链路的相对时延进行时延补偿的控制参数:
方法1:分别单独通知用户的用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref、馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref、偏移值T_offset;
方法2:直接通知用户的用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref,和馈电链路的参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref和偏移值T_offset的累加值,即T_ref_total=t3_ref+t4_ref-T_offset。当采用此方法时,无需终端分别确定用户链路的相对时延T3和馈电链路的相对时延T4,根据下面公式T_total=t3+t4-T_ref_total直接计算得到T_total。
下面给出几个具体实施例。
实施例1:UE采用方法Method A.1)补偿用户链路的相对时延+UE采用方法Method B.1)补偿馈电链路的相对时延。
实施例1中,UE的相对时延补偿采用方法Method A.1)和方法Method B.1)的组合。
A)用户链路的相对时延T3:
终端把用户链路的相对时延T3上报给网络。
定义用户链路的相对时延T3为用户链路的绝对距离d3与用户链路的参考距离d3_ref的差值再除以光速c,即T3=(d3-d3_ref)/c=t3-t3_ref。其中,用户链路的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref采用上述方法Method A.1)获取,即协议预先定义UE到卫星直线连接距离上的参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref为一个固定取值,优选地,可以采用基于卫星的固定值或者基于小区的固定值;或者,参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref也可以为0。其中,参考距离d3_ref或者参考时延t3_ref取值为0时,用户链路的相对时延T3等于用户链路的绝对时延t3。当用户链路的参考时延和馈电链路的参考时延同时为0时,NTN系统中UE的子帧定时关系和网络的子帧定时关系保持一致。

CASE B.1-2:当同一个目标卫星在不同的时刻到达信关站的距离发生变化时,UE通过信关站的位置和目标卫星的星历信息,可以预估出馈电链路距离的变化来补偿,以保证来自于同一个目标卫星的不同时刻的馈电链路在信关站的上行接收信号同时到达。如图4所示,假设t1表示信关站发送该广播 信令的时刻,t2表示UE接收到该广播信令的时刻,t2=t1+delta_t,其中,delta_t表示该广播信令从信关站发送到UE经过的空口时延。此时,公式(2)中的d4表示t2时刻目标卫星到达信关站的馈电链路的直线连接距离,d4_ref表示t1时刻目标卫星到达信关站的馈电链路的直线连接距离。
进一步的,在用户发送上行信号到信关站时,除了考虑网络侧下发的广播信令或者其他下行信令的指示进行时延补偿,并考虑用户上行信号到达信关站后的延迟时间进行预补偿。
进一步的,在用户收到上一次广播信令或者其他下行信令的时刻和下一次广播信令或者其他下行信令的时刻之间,用户采用上次广播信令或者其他下行信令通知的参考时延进行补偿,或者用户基于在同一个信关站两次广播信令或者其他下行信令的指示时延进行插值,获得用户在任意时刻发送上行信号需要的定时补偿。
CASE B.1-3:如图5所示,当一个信关站关联到一个卫星时,参考距离d4_ref或者参考时延t4_ref可以为0,此时,馈电链路的相对时延T4等于馈电链路的绝对时延t4。当用户链路的参考时延和馈电链路的参考时延同时为0时,NTN系统中UE的子帧定时关系和网络的子帧定时关系保持一致。
