Abstract

本申请提供了一种确定小区激活时延的方法和装置。该方法包括：终端设备或网络设备可以根据待激活小区的下行信号的下行空域滤波和已激活小区的下行信号的下行空域滤波相同或者不同，分别确定该待激活小区对应的激活时延。这样终端设备在该激活时延内发送CSI，网络设备在该激活时延内接收该CSI，并根据是否接收到该CSI判断该待激活小区是否激活成功。也就是说，本申请实施例中终端设备和网络设备能够确定合理的激活时延，避免由于激活时延太长或太短导致终端设备和网络设备误判辅小区是否成功激活，从而在保证设备功耗开销的前提下，提高小区激活成功率。

Description

确定小区激活时延的方法和装置
本申请要求于2019年5月31日提交中国专利局、申请号为201910473078.8、申请名称为“确定小区激活时延的方法和装置”的中国专利申请的优先权，其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域，更具体地，涉及一种确定小区激活时延的方法和装置。
背景技术
在新空口(new radio，NR)中，终端设备在开机后会在主小区(primary cell，PCell)进行初始接入。之后，网络设备可以通过配置信令或资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)配置携带辅小区(secondary cell，SCell)的配置参数，以为该终端设备添加SCell。
具体地，网络设备可以基于内部算法动态决策为用户配置SCell，并通过媒体访问控制(media access control，MAC)-控制元素(control element，CE)信令下发SCell激活信令给终端设备。终端设备根据该激活信令进行激活相应地SCell，之后在相应的时间窗内检测同步信号块(synchronization signal block，SSB)信号，实现SCell与终端设备的下行时频域同步。终端设备根据该SSB信号确定信道状态信息(channel state information，CSI)，并确定是否向网络设备上报该CSI。网络设备若在该时间窗内收到该CSI，则认为终端设备成功完成该SCell的激活。网络设备若在该时间窗内未收到该CSI，则认为该SCell激活失败。
传统方案中，终端设备和网络设备之间的时间窗的时间长度(也可以称为“激活时延”)可以是固定的。但是，随着终端设备和网络设备对小区的激活成功率和功耗开销的要求越来越高，则如何设定激活时延的大小亟待解决。

终端设备或网络设备可以根据该待激活小区的下行信号的空域发送滤波与该待激活小区的下行信号的空域发送滤波是否相同，以及待激活小区的下行信号的空域接收滤波与该待激活小区的下行信号的空域接收滤波是否相同，分别确定该待激活小区的激活时延。这样终端设备和网络设备能够更进一步确定合理的激活时延，从而更近一步在保证设备的功耗开销的前提下，提高小区的激活成功率。

第二方面，提供了一种确定小区激活时延的方法，该方法包括：确定终端设备的待激活小区的小区状态；根据该待激活小区的小区状态，确定该待激活小区的激活时延，该激活时延内用于传输信道状态信息。
终端设备或网络设备可以根据待激活小区的小区状态，确定对应的激活时延。也就是说，不同的小区状态可以对应不同的激活时延，这样终端设备在根据小区状态确定的激活时延内发送CSI，网络设备在该激活时延内接收该CSI，并根据是否接收到该CSI判断该待激活小区是否激活成功。本申请实施例中终端设备和网络设备能够确定合理的激活时延，避免由于激活时延太长或太短导致终端设备和网络设备误判辅小区是否成功激活，从而在保证设备的功耗开销的前提下，提高小区的激活成功率。
在一种可能的实现方式中，该小区状态包括小区是否已知、同步信息、服务波束是否已知、终端设备接收波束能力和信道状态信息是否已知中的至少一项。

不同的小区状态可以分别对应不同的激活时延，这样终端设备或网络设备能够更准确的确定出激活时延的大小，从而更进一步在保证设备的功耗开销的前提下，提高小区的激活成功率。
在一种可能的实现方式中，在确定该待激活小区的激活时延之前，该方法还包括：在该待激活小区与至少一个已激活小区属于相同频段的情况下，确定该待激活小区为小区已知和/或服务波束已知；或在该待激活小区的下行信号的空域滤波与至少一个已激活小区的下行信号的空域滤波相同的情况下，确定该待激活小区为小区已知和/或服务波束已知；或在传输激活信令之前的预设时段内，收到过待激活小区的有效测量结果的情况下，确定该待激活小区为小区已知和/或服务波束已知；或在该待激活小区与所有已激活小区属于不同频段的情况下，确定该待激活小区为小区未知和/或服务波束未知。

具体实施方式
下面将结合附图，对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。
下面将本申请涉及到的术语进行详细的介绍：
1、波束(beam)：
波束是一种通信资源，不同的波束可以认为是不同的通信资源。不同的波束可以发送相同的信息，也可以发送不同的信息。波束可以对应时域资源、空间资源和频域资源中的至少一项。
可选地，具有相同或者类型的通信特征的多个波束可以视为一个波束，一个波束内可以包括一个或多个天线端口，用于传输数据信道，控制信道和探测信号等。例如，发送波束可以是指信号经天线发射出去后在空间不同方向上形成的信号强度的分布；接收波束可以是指从天线上接收到的无线信号在空间不同方向上的信号强度分布。
具体地，波束可以是宽波束，也可以是窄波束，还可以是其他类型的波束。形成波束的技术可以是波束成型技术也可以是其他技术手段，本申请对此不进行限定。其中，波束成型技术(beamforming)可以是通过在空间上朝向特定的方向来实现更高的天线阵列增 益。此外，波束可以分为网络设备的发送波束和接收波束，与终端设备的发送波束和接收波束。网络设备的发送波束用于描述网络设备接收侧波束赋形信息，网络设备的接收波束用于描述网络设备接收侧波束赋形信息。终端设备的发送波束用于描述终端设备发送侧波束赋形信息，终端设备的接收波束用于描述接收侧波束赋形信息。
更具体地，波束成型技术包括数字波束成型技术、模拟波束成型技术和混合数字模拟波束成型技术。其中，模拟波束成型技术可以通过射频实现，例如，一个射频链路(RF chain)通过移相器来调整相位，从而控制模拟波束方向的改变。因此，一个RF chain在同一时刻只能打出一个模拟波束。此外，基于模拟波束的通信，需要发送端和接收端的波束对齐，否则无法正常传输信号。
应理解，形成一个波束的一个或多个天线端口也可以看作是一个天线端口集。
还应理解，波束还可以通过空间滤波器(spatial filter)或空间传输滤波器(spatial domain transmission filter)体现，换句话说，波束也可以称为“空间滤波器”，其中发射波束称为“空间发射滤波器”，接收波束称为“空间接收滤波器”或“下行空间滤波器”。网络设备的接收波束或终端设备的发送波束还可以称为“上行空间滤波器”，网络设备的发送波束或终端设备的接收波束还可以称为“下行空间滤波器”。最优的N个波束对(beam pair link，BPL)(一个BPL包括一个网络设备的发射波束和一个终端设备的接收波束，或者，一个BPL包括一个终端设备的发射波束和一个网络设备的接收波束)的选择。用于终端设备基于网络设备的波束扫描实现对网络设备的发射波束和/或终端设备的接收波束的选择，以及，网络设备基于终端设备的波束扫描实现对终端设备的发射波束和/或网络设备的接收波束的选择。
具体地，发射波束可以为基站发射波束，也可以为终端设备发射波束。当该发射波束为基站发射波束时，基站通过不同的发射波束向用户设备(user equipment，UE)发送参考信号，UE通过同一个接收波束来接收基站通过不同的发射波束发送的参考信号，并基于接收信号确定基站的最优发射波束，然后将基站的最优发射波束反馈给基站，以便于基站对发射波束进行更新。当该发射波束为终端设备发射波束时，UE通过不同的发射波束向基站发送参考信号，基站通过同一个接收波束来接收UE通过不同的发射波束发送的参考信号，并基于接收信号确定UE的最优发射波束，然后将UE的最优发射波束反馈给UE，以便于UE对发射波束进行更新。其中，上述通过不同的发射波束发送参考信号的过程可以称为波束扫描，基于接收信号确定最优发射波束的过程可以称为波束匹配。
接收波束可以为基站接收波束，也可以为终端设备接收波束。当该接收波束为基站接收波束时，UE通过同一个发射波束向基站发送参考信号，基站采用不同的接收波束接收UE发送的参考信号，然后基于接收信号确定基站的最优接收波束，以对基站的接收波束进行更新。当该接收波束为UE的接收波束时，基站通过同一个发射波束向UE发送参考信号，UE采用不同的接收波束接收基站发送的参考信号，然后基于接收信号确定UE的最优接收波束，以对UE的接收波束进行更新。
需要说明的是，对于下行波束的训练，网络设备会配置参考信号资源集合的类型用于波束训练，当为参考信号资源集合配置的重复参数为“on”时，终端设备假设该参考信号资源集合中的参考信号使用相同的下行空间滤波器传输，也即使用相同的发送波束传输；此时，一般情况下，终端设备会使用不同的接收波束接收上述参考信号资源集合中的参考信 号，训练出终端设备最好的接收波束，可选地，终端设备可以上报UE测量的最好的N个参考信号的信道质量。当为参考信号资源集合配置的重复参数为“off”时，终端设备不会假设该参考信号资源集合中的参考信号使用相同的下行空间滤波器传输，也即不假设网络设备使用相同的发送波束传输参考信号，此时终端设备通过测量该集合中参考信号的信道质量在该资源集合中选出最好的N个波束反馈给网络设备，一般情况下，此时，终端设备在此过程中使用相同的接收波束。
2、波束成型技术(beamforming)：
波束成型技术可以通过在空间上朝向特定的方向来实现更高的天线阵列增益。模拟波束成型，可以通过射频实现。例如，一个射频链路(RF chain)通过移相器来调整相位，从而控制模拟波束方向的改变。因此，一个RF chain在同一时刻只能打出一个模拟波束。
3、波束管理资源：
指用于波束管理的资源，又可以体现为用于计算和测量波束质量的资源。波束质量包括层一接收参考信号功率(layer 1 reference signal received power,L1-RSRP)，层一接收参考信号质量(layer 1 reference signal received quality,L1-RSRQ)等。具体的，波束管理资源可以包括同步信号，广播信道，下行信道测量参考信号，跟踪信号，下行控制信道解调参考信号，下行共享信道解调参考信号，上行探测参考信号，上行随机接入信号等。
4、波束指示信息：
用于指示传输所使用的波束，包括发送波束和/或接收波束。包括波束编号、波束管理资源编号，上行信号资源号，下行信号资源号、波束的绝对索引、波束的相对索引、波束的逻辑索引、波束对应的天线端口的索引、波束对应的天线端口组索引、波束对应的下行信号的索引、波束对应的下行同步信号块的时间索引、波束对连接(beam pair link，BPL)信息、波束对应的发送参数(Tx parameter)、波束对应的接收参数(Rx parameter)、波束对应的发送权重、波束对应的权重矩阵、波束对应的权重向量、波束对应的接收权重、波束对应的发送权重的索引、波束对应的权重矩阵的索引、波束对应的权重向量的索引、波束对应的接收权重的索引、波束对应的接收码本、波束对应的发送码本、波束对应的接收码本的索引、波束对应的发送码本的索引中的至少一种，下行信号包括同步信号、广播信道、广播信号解调信号、信道状态信息下行信号(channel state information reference signal，CSI-RS)、小区专用参考信号(cell specific reference signal，CS-RS)、终端设备专用参考信号(user equipment specific reference signal，US-RS)、下行控制信道解调参考信号，下行数据信道解调参考信号，下行相位噪声跟踪信号中任意一种。上行信号包括中上行随机接入序列，上行探测参考信号，上行控制信道解调参考信号，上行数据信道解调参考信号，上行相位噪声跟踪信号任意一种。可选的，网络设备还可以为频率资源组关联的波束中具有准同位(quasi-co-location，QCL)关系的波束分配QCL标示符。波束也可以称为空域传输滤波器，发射波束也可以称为空域发射滤波器，接收波束也可以称为空域接收滤波器。波束指示信息还可以体现为传输配置编号(transmission configuration index，TCI)，TCI中可以包括多种参数，例如，小区编号，带宽部分编号，参考信号标识，同步信号块标识，QCL类型等。其中，准同位(quasi-co-location，QCL)的同位关系用于表示多个资源之间具有一个或多个相同或者相类似的通信特征，对于具有同位关系的多个资源，可以采用相同或者类似的通信配置。例如，如果两个天线端口具有同位关系，那么一个端口传 送一个符号的信道大尺度特性可以从另一个端口传送一个符号的信道大尺度特性推断出来。大尺度特性可以包括：延迟扩展，平均延迟，多普勒扩展，多普勒频移，平均增益，接收参数，终端设备接收波束编号，发射/接收信道相关性，接收到达角，接收机天线的空间相关性，主到达角(angel-of-arrival，AoA)，平均到达角，AoA的扩展等。空域准同位(spatial QCL)可以认为是QCL的一种类型。对于spatial有两个角度可以理解：从发送端或者从接收端。从发送端来看，如果说两个天线端口是空域准同位的，那么是指这两个天线端口的对应的波束方向在空间上是一致的，即spatial filter相同。从接收端来看，如果说两个天线端口是空域准同位的，那么是指接收端能够在相同的波束方向上接收到这两个天线端口发送的信号，即关于接收参数QCL。
5、QCL：
同位关系用于表示多个资源之间具有一个或多个相同或者相类似的通信特征，对于具有同位关系的多个资源，可以采用相同或者类似的通信配置。例如，如果两个天线端口具有同位关系，那么一个端口传送一个符号的信道大尺度特性可以从另一个端口传送一个符号的信道大尺度特性推断出来。大尺度特性可以包括：延迟扩展，平均延迟，多普勒扩展，多普勒频移，平均增益，接收参数，终端设备接收波束编号，发射/接收信道相关性，接收到达角，接收机天线的空间相关性，主到达角(Angel-of-Arrival，AoA)，平均到达角，AoA的扩展等。
6、空域准同位(spatial QCL)：
spatial QCL可以认为是QCL的一种类型。对于spatial有两个角度可以理解：从发送端或者从接收端。从发送端来看，如果说两个天线端口是空域准同位的，那么是指这两个天线端口的对应的波束方向在空间上是一致的。从接收端来看，如果说两个天线端口是空域准同位的，那么是指接收端能够在相同的波束方向上接收到这两个天线端口发送的信号。
7、准同位假设(QCL assumption)：
是指假设两个端口之间是否具有QCL关系。准同位假设的配置和指示可以用来帮助接收端进行信号的接收和解调。例如接收端能确认A端口和B端口具有QCL关系，即可以将A端口上测得的信号的大尺度参数用于B端口上的信号测量和解调。
8、天线面板(panel)：
无线通信的信号需要由天线进行接收和发送，多个天线单元(antenna element)可以集成在一个面板(panel)上。一个射频链路可以驱动一个或多个天线单元。在本申请实施例中，终端设备可以包括多个天线面板，每个天线面板包括一个或者多个波束。网络设备也可以包括多个天线面板，每个天线面板包括一个或者多个波束。天线面板又可表示为天线阵列(antenna array)或者天线子阵列(antenna subarray)。一个天线面板可以包括一个或多个天线阵列/子阵列。一个天线面板可以有一个或多个晶振(oscillator)控制。射频链路又可以称为接收通道和/或发送通道，接收机支路(receiver branch)等。一个天线面板可以由一个射频链路驱动，也可以由多个射频链路驱动。因此本申请中的天线面板也可以替换为射频链路或者驱动一个天线面板的多个射频链路或者由一个晶振控制的一个或多个射频链路。
9、载波分量(carrier component，CC)和载波聚合：
载波聚合(carrier aggregation，CA)指终端设备联合用多个CC，包括带内连续，带内不连续，带间不连续等。CA可以提高可用带宽，获得更好的传输速率。CA中允许PDCCH和PDSCH在同一个或者不同的CC中，即允许跨载波的调度。其中，CC，带宽部分(bandwidth part,BWP)，CC/BWP，CC和/或BWP通常可等效替换，因为它们都描述的一段频域资源。CC也可以和小区(cell)等效替换。其中，BWP表示连续的一段频域资源，例如，BWP可以理解为一段连续的频带，该频带包含至少一个连续的子带，每个带宽部分可以对应一组系统参数(numerology)。不同带宽部分可以对应不同的系统参数。
10、同步信号广播信道块(synchronous signal/PBCH block，SS/PBCH block)：
SS/PBCH block还可以称为SSB。其中，PBCH为物理广播信道(physical broadcast channel)的缩写。SSB包含主同步信号(primary synchronization signal，PSS)、辅同步信号(secondary synchronization signal，SSS)和PBCH中的至少一个。主要用于小区搜索、小区同步、承载广播信息的信号。
11、主小区(primary cell，PCell)：
PCell是CA的终端设备驻留的小区，CA的终端设备对应物理上行控制信道(physical uplink control channel，PUCCH)信道。
12、辅助主小区(primary secondary Cell，PSCell)：
PSCell是主基站(master eNodeB，MeNB)通过RRC连接信令配置给DC UE的在辅基站(secondary eNodeB，SeNB)上的一个特殊辅小区。
13、辅小区(secondary cell，SCell)：
SCell是指通过RRC连接信令配置给CA终端设备的小区，工作在SCC(辅载波)上，可以为CA终端设备提供更多的无线资源。SCell可以只有下行，也可以上下行同时存在
14、下行信号：可以是下行数据信号，例如：下行控制信信道信号、下行数据信道信号；也可以是下行参考信号，例如：CSI-RS、追踪参考信号(tracking reference signal，TRS)、解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal，DMRS)、相应跟踪参考信号(corresponding tracking reference signal，PTRS)、公共参考信号(common reference signal，CRS)。

具体地，本申请实施例中，终端设备或网络设备可以根据待激活小区的下行信号的下行空域滤波和已激活小区的下行信号的下行空域滤波相同或者不同，分别确定该待激活小区对应的激活时延。这样终端设备在该激活时延内发送CSI，网络设备在该激活时延内接收该CSI，并根据是否接收到该CSI判断该待激活小区是否激活成功。也就是说，本申请实施例中终端设备和网络设备能够确定合理的激活时延，避免由于激活时延太长或太短导致终端设备和网络设备误判辅小区是否成功激活，从而在保证设备的功耗开销的前提下，提高小区的激活成功率。
