- TPC transmission power control
- DCI downlink control information
- the SRS transmitted by the terminal equipment includes two types: legacy SRS and additional SRS.
- TPC since the additional SRS can be triggered separately through the DCI format of Rel-15, or together with the traditional SRS, the TPC issues will be discussed one by one below.
- TPC is carried in DCI, and the usage of TPC is summarized in Table 6.
- TPC in DCI TPC usage Authorize in the uplink PUSCH Authorize in the downlink PUCCH The format is 3/3A in DCI PUCCH and PUSCH
- the format is 3B in DCI SRS
- the TPC value is used for power control, but if triggered, it can also be used for additional SRS. There are two situations:
- the TPC value in the corresponding DCI is applicable to both the additional SRS and PUSCH.
- the power control of the additional SRS can be reused (Equation 1).
- the simple method is to apply a TPC value to the additional SRS and PUSCH.
- Additional SRS can be used (Equation 1), while traditional SRS follows power control coupled with PUSCH.
- the TPC value can be used for PUCCH and additional SRS.
- the power control formula is used to attach SRS.
- the additional SRS when the additional SRS is triggered, regardless of the DCI format, the TPC value in the DCI is applicable to the additional SRS. And the power control formula of the SRS in the 3B format without the DCI of the PUSCH/PUCCH can be reused.
- the power indicated by the TPC in the DCI is the power at which the terminal device transmits the legacy SRS.
- the TPC indicates the additional SRS transmission power control. If DCI only triggers legacy SRS, TPC indicates the transmission power control of legacy SRS.
- a DCI is supported to trigger both legacy SRS and additional SRS transmission.
- one of the following three methods should be used:
- the first type if a DCI triggers both the legacy SRS and the additional SRS, the TPC in the DCI is used to calculate the transmission power of the legacy SRS and the additional SRS at the same time. In this way, the agreement of the original agreement is not changed, the continuity of the agreement can be maintained, and the system compatibility can be improved.
- the second type If a DCI triggers both legacy SRS and additional SRS, the TPC in the DCI is only used for legacy SRS power calculation.
- the third type If a DCI triggers both legacy SRS and additional SRS, the TPC in the DCI is only used for the power calculation of the additional SRS.
- the Rel-16 LTE standard For the Rel-16 LTE standard, it supports simultaneous transmission of legacy SRS and additional SRS in one subframe. However, due to different parameters such as bandwidth, the transmission power of legacy SRS and additional SRS are often different. Now that the first 13 OFDM symbols that support normal subframes can be used to transmit additional SRS, when additional SRS and legacy SRS are directly adjacent to each other in the time domain, power jumps will occur due to the difference in power between the two, which will cause After the additional SRS is sent, the legacy SRS that is directly adjacent in the transmission time domain is distorted. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application design the following three solutions to avoid this problem, and the network device selects any one of the following solutions to execute:
- the first type does not trigger the transmission of additional SRS and legacy SRS that are directly adjacent to the network equipment and terminal equipment in the time domain.

- the second type when the network device configures the SRS parameters for the terminal device, at least one symbol is added between the additional SRS and the legacy SRS as the GP symbol, for example, one symbol is added as the GP symbol.
- the third type if the two are directly adjacent to each other in the time domain, the network equipment must configure the SRS parameters to ensure that the bandwidth of the legacy SRS and the additional SRS are the same, so as to ensure that the power of the two SRSs is the same, and no power jump occurs.

Description
本申请涉及无线传输领域,尤其涉及一种信号传输方法及装置。
无线信道具有频率选择性衰落特性,严重降低上行链路的传输性能。为了确定上行链路的传输性能,基站通过终端设备发送的探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS)来估计不同频段的上行信道质量。基站侧的调度器可以根据探测到的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI)将瞬时信道状态好的资源块(Resource Block,RB)分配给终端设备的物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)传输,从而获取频率选择性增益,以保证上行链路性能。
为了降低SRS在传输过程中的干扰,终端设备在传输SRS时,可以采用跳频的方式传输SRS。目前,终端设备每次跳频传输SRS时,都会同时进行天线切换,因此,终端设备需要频繁切换天线,举例来说,如图1所示,当SRS传输计数n
SRS等于0时,终端设备的天线Tx0在一个载波频率传输SRS,当n
SRS等于1时,需要跳变到另一个载波频率上继续传输SRS。在这个跳频过程中,需要同时将终端设备传输SRS的天线Tx0切换为天线Tx1,那么每次跳频都需要一个用于准备天线切换的时间保护间隔。在n
SRS从1再增加到9过程中,终端设备传输SRS的天线还会在Tx0~Tx3间切换,具体过程与Tx0切换到Tx1类似,在此不再赘述。因此,在SRS的传输过程中,由于跳频和天线切换同时进行,用于准备天线切换的时间保护间隔较多,导致SRS的整个传输过程的耗时较久,SRS的传输效率较低,从而SRS整个传输过程满足不了低延时高可靠的要求。
因此,现有技术中,在SRS的传输过程中,天线切换频繁,时间保护间隔较多,导致SRS的整个传输过程的时间较久,SRS的传输效率较低,是一个亟待解决的问题。

步骤303中,终端设备根据接收到的高层参数确定GP、SRS传输功率、是否使能跳频传输SRS和切换的天线端口索引,下面分别进行详细说明。
终端设备确定GP:
高层参数中的第六配置信息可以指示出在一个子帧内包括的GP的数目、位置和每个GP的长度。GP包含Y个OFDM符号,Y可以是1也可以是其他正整数,跳频或天线切换中的GP长度可以相同或不同,Y个OFDM符号中每个OFDM符号,又可以称为一个GP符号。网络设备可以根据终端设备的能力信息,或网络设备自身确定所需的GP的数目和长度。通过第六配置信息指示GP的方式为显示方式,除第六配置信息外,第三配置信息、第四配置信息等参数也可以独立包含在高层参数中,分别对终端设备进行指示。
如果高层参数中不包括第六配置信息,也可以通过隐式方式指示出所有GP的数目、位置和每个GP的长度。举例来说,也可以通过高层参数配置比特位图(bitmap),将第三配置信息、第四配置信息和第六配置信息统一包括进去,通过bitmap对终端设备的GP进行联合指示。
如图4所示,为本申请实施例提供的天线切换方法对应的bitmap,横轴l为子帧中SRS符号的序号。在bitmap中,比特为‘1’表示该位置上有SRS符号;比特位为‘0’表示该位置上没有SRS符号,该位置上有GP符号。其中,第三配置信息指示了bitmap中比特位的总数目,第四配置信息指示了bitmap中比特连续为‘1’的比特位数目,第六配置信息指示了bitmap中比特为‘0’的比特位数目及位置。终端设备根据bitmap来传输SRS符号,在计算SRS传输计数n
SRS时将不包括这些GP符号。由图4可知,第0、1、3、4、6、7个符号位置对应比特为‘1’,因此这些符号位置上均有SRS符号;第2、5、8~12个符号位置对应比特为‘0’,这些符号位置上均没有SRS符号,但均有GP符号。
终端设备确定SRS传输功率:
LTE SRS的频域资源:
现有Rel-15 LTE标准支持SRS在上行正常子帧或特殊子帧中传输。在正常子帧中传输的SRS位于最后一个OFDM符号上;在特殊子帧中传输的SRS位于UpPTS包含的OFDM符号上。为了提升SRS容量,特殊子帧中UpPTS最多可以配置6个OFDM符号,并用于SRS传输。然而,随着对支持多种业务和应用的需求的持续增长,SRS容量的短缺变得明显。为了进一步增强SRS的容量和覆盖范围,Rel-16 LTE中引入新型SRS符号来满足正常子帧中多个符号的SRS传输。为了与现有Rel-15 LTE中的SRS 相区别,Rel-15 LTE的SRS称为传统SRS(legacy SRS),Rel-16引入的SRS称为附加SRS(additional SRS)。目前,标准同意一个正常子帧的前1到13个OFDM符号均可以用于传输additional SRS,前1到13个OFDM符号中additional SRS占用的OFDM符号为additional SRS符号,正常子帧中最后一个符号可用于传输legacy SRS,正常子帧中由legacy SRS占用的最后一个OFDM符号为additional SRS符号。换言之,legacy SRS分布在最后一个OFDM符号上,不同梳齿的legacy SRS间隔交替分布;additional SRS分布在第1到13个OFDM符号上,可以占据一个或多个OFDM符号。
在现有Rel-15 LTE协议(TS 36.213v15.4.0第8.2节)中定义了2种类型的legacy SRS传输:第一种,周期性SRS传输(trigger type 0):由高层RRC信令配置,每隔一定的周期发送一次。第二种,非周期性SRS传输(trigger type 1):由物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)的下行链路控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)触发。
触发类型trigger type 0和trigger type 1的时域、频域、码域SRS参数均由高层RRC信令半静态配置。Rel-15的legacy SRS支持周期性传输和非周期性传输。针对Rel-16的addition SRS,根据3GPP RAN1#94、#94bis、#95和#96会议讨论结果,目前已同意支持子帧内的非周期性SRS传输。此外,标准已支持同一个终端设备可同时支持legacy SRS和additional SRS传输。
SRS的频域资源由三个要素确定:SRS带宽,传输梳齿偏移和频域起始位置。确定了这三要素之后,就能确定SRS的频域所占的资源。
第一步确定SRS带宽m
SRS,b,即每个SRS在频域上占多少个RB。根据上行带宽
从TS 36.211的表格5.5.3.2-1至5.5.3.2-4(见表1至4)中选出所需查找表,再根据高层参数SRS带宽配置(srs-BandwidthConfig)配置的小区特定的第八配置信息,C
SRS∈{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7}和高层参数SRS带宽(srs-Bandwidth)配置的UE特定的第二配置信息B
SRS∈{0,1,2,3},从查找表中获得当b=B
SRS时,SRS带宽大小m
SRS,b和频域上分成的份数N
b。由表可知,给定小区特定的参数C
SRS之后,B
SRS=0对应的SRS信号带宽最大,本申请实施例中,将B
SRS对应的m
SRS,0称为宽带SRS信号带宽。并且,由表1~表4可知,得到下一级SRS信号带宽总是等于上一级带宽除以下一级分成的份数:m
SRS,1=m
SRS,0/N
1和m
SRS,2=m
SRS,1/N
2和m
SRS,3=m
SRS,2/N
3。本申请实施例中,将B
SRS=1、B
SRS=2、B
SRS=3对应的SRS带宽m
SRS,1、m
SRS,2、m
SRS,3称为窄带SRS带宽。
第二步确定传输梳齿偏移
由高层参数(transmissionCombNum)配置传输梳齿数目K
TC(例如可以为4),否则K
TC=2。传输梳齿偏移
不同UE在相同子帧、相同RB集合上发送SRS时,彼此之间使用不同的传输梳齿偏移予以区分。
第三步确定频域起始位置
由第一步中SRS信号带宽占据RB数目为m
SRS,b,每一个RB包含
个子载波,可得SRS信号带宽占据子载波数为
结合宽带SRS信号频域起始位置
和窄带SRS信号频域位置索引n
b,给出窄带SRS信号频域上的起始的子载波位置为:
第二项
表示根据窄带SRS信号的频带宽度
和频域位置索引n
b来选出对应SRS子带在整个宽带SRS中所处的频域位置。n
b的值与高层配置的频域位置参数n
RRC∈{0,1,…,23}有关,即每个最小的SRS子带对应一个频域位置索引n
b,对应一个n
RRC的数值。
NR SRS的频域资源:
与Rel-15 LTE SRS类似,Rel-15 NR SRS的频域资源由三个要素确定:SRS带宽,传输梳齿偏移和频域起始位置。确定了这三要素之后,就能确定SRS的频域所占的资源。
第一步确定SRS带宽m
SRS,b,即每个SRS在频域上占多少个RB。根据配置参数C
SRS∈{0,1,…,63}和B
SRS∈{0,1,2,3},查找TS 38.211的表格(表5),获得每个SRS在 频域上所占的RB数m
SRS,b和频域上分成的份数N
b,其中b=B
SRS。
第二步确定传输梳齿偏移
由高层参数transmissionCombNum配置传输梳齿数目K
TC∈{2,4}。传输梳齿偏移
不同UE在相同子帧、相同RB集合上发送SRS时,彼此之间使用不同的传输梳齿偏移予以区分。
第三步确定频域起始位置
由公式
获得。其中,
表示频带上可用于SRS传输的第一个子载波的位置,
由频域移位值n
shift、传输梳齿数目K
TC和传输梳齿偏移
共同决定。
表示SRS信号序列的长度(即占多少个子载波)。n
b表示频域位置索引。
表5
终端设备还可以确定终端设备传输SRS的功率。网络设备通过下行链路控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)中的传输功率控制(transmit power control,TPC)来指示终端设备传输SRS的功率。其中,终端设备传输的SRS包括两类:legacy SRS和additional SRS。
对于TPC,由于附加SRS可以通过Rel-15的DCI格式单独触发,或与传统SRS一起触发,因此下面将逐个讨论TPC问题。在当前的规范中,TPC携带在DCI中,TPC的用法总结如表6所示。
TPC在DCI中 | TPC用法 |
在上行链路中授权 | PUSCH |
在下行链路中授权 | PUCCH |
在DCI中格式为3/3A | PUCCH和PUSCH |
在DCI中格式为3B | SRS |
表6 TPC信令和用法
1)对于TPC在DCI中格式为3B的情形,可以在没有PUSCH/PUCCH配置的载波上,通过TPC命令指示TPC动态调整。因此,TPC仅用于SRS。这种设计以及功率控制公式(公式1)可以很容易地重复用于附加的SRS,并且规范影响非常小。
P
SRS,c(i)=min{P
CMAX,c(i),10log
10(M
SRS,c)+P
O_SRS,c(m)+α
SRS,c·PL
c+f
SRS,c(i)} [dBm]
2)对于UL授权或DCI格式3/3A,TPC值用于功率控制,但如果触发,也可用于附加SRS。有两种情况:
情况1:仅触发非周期性附加SRS。
这种情况下,因为只触发了附加SRS,因此相应DCI中的TPC值同时适用于附加SRS和PUSCH。但是,附加SRS的功率控制可以重复使用(公式1)。
情况2:在同一子帧内触发传统SRS和附加SRS。
在这种情况下,简单的方法是一个TPC值适用于附加SRS和PUSCH。附加SRS可以使用(等式1),而传统SRS遵循与PUSCH耦合的功率控制。
3)对于DL授权,TPC值可以用于PUCCH和附加SRS。此外,功率控制公式用于附加SRS。
总之,当触发附加SRS时,无论DCI格式如何,DCI中的TPC值都适用于附加SRS。并且可以重用没有PUSCH/PUCCH的DCI的3B格式的SRS的功率控制公式。
在Rel-15 LTE标准中,DCI中TPC指示的功率为终端设备传输legacy SRS的功率,在引入additional SRS后,DCI若是触发additional SRS,则TPC指示的是additional SRS的传输功率控制。若DCI只触发legacy SRS,则TPC指示的是legacy SRS的传输功率控制。
对于Rel-16 LTE标准,支持一个DCI同时触发legacy SRS与additional SRS传输,这时应该按照以下三种方法之一来进行:
第一种:如果一个DCI同时触发legacy SRS与additional SRS,则该DCI中的TPC同时用于计算传输legacy SRS与additional SRS的功率。通过这种方法,不改变原来协议的约定,可以保持协议的连续性,提高系统兼容性。
第二种:如果一个DCI同时触发legacy SRS与additional SRS,则该DCI中的TPC只用于legacy SRS的功率计算。
通过这种方法,可以保证legacy SRS的行为不会改变,对其他终端设备的SRS干扰不会变化。
第三种:如果一个DCI同时触发legacy SRS与additional SRS,则该DCI中的TPC只用于additional SRS的功率计算。
通过这种方法,可以保证additional SRS的行为不会改变,对其他终端设备的SRS干扰不会变化。
对于Rel-16 LTE标准,支持一个子帧内legacy SRS与additional SRS同时传输,而由于带宽等参数的不同,legacy SRS与additional SRS的传输功率往往不同。现在已支持正常子帧的前13个OFDM符号可用于传输additional SRS,当additional SRS与legacy SRS在时域上直接相邻时,由于两者的功率不同,会出现功率跳变,这就会导致发送additional SRS后,发送时域上直接相邻的legacy SRS出现畸变。因此,本申请实施例设计如下三种方案来避免这一问题,网络设备选择以下方案的任意一种来执行:
第一种:不触发网络设备和终端设备在时域上直接相邻的additional SRS与legacy SRS传输。如果出现两者在时域上直接相邻传输的情况,终端设备将不发送已触发的legacy SRS或不发送已触发的additional SRS。
第二种:网络设备给终端设备配置SRS参数时,在additional SRS与legacy SRS之间添加至少一个符号作为GP符号,举例来说,添加1个符号作为GP符号。
第三种:如果出现两者在时域上直接相邻传输的情况,网络设备配置SRS参数需要保证legacy SRS与additional SRS的带宽相同,从而保证两种SRS的功率相同,不出现功率跳变。
终端设备确定是否使能跳频传输SRS:
终端设备根据第一配置信息指示的SRS的跳频带宽配置b
hop和第二配置信息指示的SRS带宽B
SRS,确定是否使能跳频传输SRS。终端设备判断b
hop和B
SRS的大小关系,若b
hop<B
SRS,则使能跳频传输SRS;若b
hop≥B
SRS则不使能跳频传输SRS。需要说明的是,无论是否使能跳频传输SRS,SRS传输计数均为
其中
l为一个子帧中SRS符号的序号。
其中,第一项
表示频带上可用于传输SRS的第一个子载波的位置,或者说宽带SRS的起始子载波所在的位置。第二项
中,m

为每一个RB包含的子载波个数,因此,可得SRS信号带宽占据子载波数为
n
b为窄带SRS频域位置索引,n
b是根据n
SRS确定的。
终端设备确定切换的天线端口索引:
终端设备通过第一参数确定终端设备进行天线切换后天线的天线端口索引(以下简称第一天线端口索引)。第一参数可表示为n
SRS_AS,该参数的名称不做限定,举例来说,该参数称为SRS天线切换传输计数。
一种可选的实施方式是:根据第五配置信息指示终端设备的天线切换模式的不同,终端设备确定第一天线端口索引的方式也不同,当第五配置信息为指示1T4R模式的参数,且置为开启时,选择1T4R模式;当第五配置信息为指示2T4R模式的参数,且置为开启时,选择2T4R模式;否则选择1T2R模式。下面以n
SRS_AS为例表示第一参数,以a(n
SRS_AS)为例表示第一天线端口索引,根据不同的天线切换模式,确定第一天线端口索引的具体方式如下:
第一种情形,1T4R模式:
若不使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop≥B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引a(n
SRS_AS)为:
a(n
SRS_AS)=n
SRS_AS mod 4 (2)
若使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop<B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引为:
其中,n
SRS_AS为第一参数;K为频域上分成的份数由所述第一配置信息和第二配置信息获得,为正整数;β为一个取0或1的参数,当SRS信号带宽在第二级带宽分成2份且在第三级带宽分成两份时,β取1,否则取0。
第二种情形,2T4R模式:
若不使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop≥B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引为:
a(n
SRS_AS)=n
SRS_AS modΛ (4)
若使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop<B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引为:
其中,n
SRS_AS为第一参数;K为频域上分成的份数由所述第一配置信息和第二配置信息获得,为正整数;β为一个取0或1的参数,当SRS信号带宽在第二级带宽分成2份且在第三级带宽分成两份时,β取1,否则取0。
第三种情形,1T2R模式:
若不使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop≥B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引为:
a(n
SRS_AS)=n
SRS_AS mod 2 (6)
若使能跳频传输SRS(b
hop<B
SRS),则第一天线端口索引为:
其中,n
SRS_AS为第一参数;K为频域上分成的份数由所述第一配置信息和第二配置信息获得,为正整数;β为预设值,举例来说β为一个取0或1的参数,当SRS信号带宽在第二级带宽分成2份且在第三级带宽分成两份时,β取1,否则取0。
在另外一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备获取第五配置信息;第五配置信息用于指示终端设备终端设备支持的天线模式;若第五配置信息指示的所述天线模式为1T4R,且当终端设备采用跳频方式传输SRS时,针对SRS的第l个符号,根据以下方式确定所述第l个符号的天线端口索引:
若第五配置信息指示的所述天线模式为1T2R,且当终端设备采用跳频方式传输SRS时,针对SRS的第l个符号,根据以下方式确定所述第l个符号的天线端口索引:
若第五配置信息指示的天线模式为2T4R,且终端设备采用跳频方式传输SRS时,针对SRS的第l个符号,根据以下方式确定所述第l个符号的天线端口索引:
其中Λ表示终端设备用于传输SRS的天线对数。Λ的取值为2或3:当Λ=2时,天线端口对为{2a(n
SRS),2a(n
SRS)+1};当Λ=3时,表示天线端口对为{0,a(n
SRS)+1}。
下面以1T2R模式举例说明步骤303的过程,上行带宽
配置C
SRS=0,B
SRS=1,m
SRS,1=12,SRS信号带宽在第二级带宽分成的份数为N
1=3,传输梳齿偏移
配置频域位置n
RRC=0,配置跳频带宽b
hop=0满足b
hop<B
SRS,使能跳频,重复因子R=2,SRS跳频与天线切换同时配置,保护间隔Y=1。如图5所示,为上述例子下,终端设备传输SRS的示意图,其中Tx0、Tx1为天线。由图5可知,l取0~5时,终端设备采用跳频的方式传输SRS,根据1T2R模式下第一天线端口索引的计算公式,终端设备用同一根天线Tx0传输SRS符号;其中,l为一个子帧中SRS符号的序号。
在跳频传输SRS的过程中,会出现一个子帧内未完成全部跳频、天线切换的情况。当跳频和/或天线切换在同一子帧被配置时,若配置的子帧内SRS符号数不足以完成全部跳频和/或天线切换时,为了完成跳频和/或天线切换,需要在后续子帧上完成剩下的跳频和/或天线切换。然而,在后续子帧上接着传输SRS符号时,传输计数n
SRS会初始化为0,这样会导致在后续子帧上完成的跳频和/或天线切换与所述前面的子帧完成结果的完全一样,即仍然在一个子帧内完不成全部跳频以及天线切换。如图6所示,两个子帧上都是对天线Tx0和Tx1进行了传输SRS符号。
为解决跳频传输SRS的过程中,一个子帧内未完成全部跳频、天线切换的问题,本申请实施例提供如下三种方法:
第一种方法,在无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令中增加第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示n
SRS是否连续计数。第一指示信息可以在RRC信令中携带,也可以在DCI中携带,下面分别进行描述。
第一种方法的第一种情况,第一指示信息为在RRC信令中携带,对在RRC信令中第一指示信息的名称不做限定,例如子帧间连续(SRS-InterSubframe-Successive):
举例来说,当第一指示信息置为“开启(on)”时,指示终端设备存储触发的未完成SRS天线切换的非周期性传输SRS符号的最后一个n
SRS值;并且,在下一个子帧继续非周期性传输SRS符号时,n
SRS在此基础上继续累计增加。
当第一指示信息置为“关闭(off)”时,则无论此次非周期性传输SRS符号是否完成跳频或天线切换,在下一次触发非周期性SRS传输时n
SRS均恢复为0。
第一种方法的第二种情况,在DCI信令中增加第一指示信息,终端设备根据第一指示信息,按照下面两种行为之一进行:
行为一:指示终端设备存储触发的未完成SRS天线切换的非周期性传输SRS符号的最后一个n
SRS值;在下一个子帧继续非周期性传输SRS符号时,n
SRS在此基础上继续累计增加。
行为二:无论此次非周期性传输SRS符号是否完成跳频或天线切换,在下一次触发非周期性传输SRS符号时n
SRS均恢复为0。
第二种方法,在RRC信令或DCI信令中增加第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示n
SRS是否连续计数,增加高层参数多个天线端口集合
举例来说,p
set1={0,1},p
set2={0,1,2}等。该方法包括以下三步:
第一步:网络设备根据终端设备上报的能力信息,选择在本次非周期性传输SRS符号中天线端口集合p
set。
第二步:终端设备进行非周期性传输SRS符号的天线切换时,满足天线端口p∈p
set。
第三步:通过触发多次非周期性传输SRS符号,并且每次传输SRS符号选取不同的天线端口集合来实现所有天线的重复、跳频和天线切换。
第三种方法、采用多重射击(multi-shot)的方式,触发一次,完成全部传输OFDM符号后自行结束,包括以下两步:
第一步:网络设备给终端设备配置传输的SRS符号数目。
第二步:网络设备通过DCI信令或媒体访问控制(media access control,MAC)控制元素(control element,CE)信令触发或激活终端设备传输SRS符号,并进行重复、跳频、天线切换。
当终端设备完成全部天线的重复和跳频之后,传输SRS符号结束。与NR中半静态的SRS传输不同之处在于:不需要再次使用MAC CE来终止SRS符号的传输。
