Description

确定天线面板状态的方法和装置
本申请要求于2019年6月10日提交中国专利局、申请号为201910497847.8、申请名称为“确定天线面板状态的方法和装置”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，涉及一种确定天线面板状态的方法和装置。
背景技术
第五代移动通信系统(5th generation，5G)可以采用高频通信，即采用超高频段(例如，>6GHz)传输数据。高频通信的一个主要问题是信号能量随传输距离急剧下降，导致信号传输距离短。为了克服这个问题，高频通信采用模拟波束技术，通过对大规模天线阵列进行加权处理，将信号能量集中在一个较小的范围内，形成一个类似于光束一样的信号(可以称为“模拟波束”，还可以简称为“波束”)，从而提高传输距离。
网络设备可以生成不同的波束，指向不同的传输方向。网络设备一般采用一个或多个最佳的波束来进行数据传输。此外，终端也可以生成不同的波束，并采用最佳一个或多个波束来进行数据传输。具体采用哪个波束来进行传输是通过波束管理过程来确定的。波束管理可分为下行波束管理和上行波束管理。
下行波束管理用于选择下行数据传输的(网络设备)发送波束。网络设备通过测量配置信息为终端配置多个下行信号资源，每个下行信号资源与一个波束对应。每个下行信号资源还对应于一个下行信号，通过测量该下行信号，终端测量各个波束发送的下行信号，即可确定各个波束/下行信号资源的质量。通过测量各个波束的质量，终端可以选择一个或多个质量最佳的下行信号资源，并将其资源的索引和相应的资源质量上报给网络设备，网络设备从中选择一个或多个下行信号资源(波束)用于数据传输。
波束是通过天线面板(antenna panel，Panel)生成的，即通过对一个天线面板上的所有天线进行处理(例如，相位加权处理)，来形成波束信号。每个天线面板都可以生成多个不同指向的波束，但是同一时间只能生成一个。终端可以配备多个天线面板，并可以选择其中质量较好的天线面板来进行数据传输。另一方面，终端可以关闭某些天线面板，从而节省电能。但是，网络设备并不知道哪些天线面板是开启的，哪些天线面板是关闭的。因此，网络设备无法合理的调度天线面板进行上行数据传输，从而造成数据传输效率较低。
发明内容
本申请提供一种确定天线面板状态的方法和装置，能够确定天线面板的开关状态，从而提高了数据传输效率。
第一方面，提供了一种确定天线面板状态的方法，该方法包括：接收配置信息，该配 置信息包括至少一个下行信号资源集合；在该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板开启的情况下，发送第一反馈信息，该第一反馈信息用于指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，其中，该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量是由该第一天线面板测量下行信号得到的；或在该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板关闭的情况下，发送第二反馈信息，该第二反馈信息用于指示该第一天线面板关闭。
终端要测量第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，需要采用该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板来测量。在测量之前，终端要判断该第一天线面板的状态是开启，还是关闭。在第一天线面板开启的情况下，终端可以采用该第一天线面板测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，并发送第一反馈信息，该第一反馈信息可以指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量。在第一天线面板关闭的情况下，不测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，并发送第二反馈信息，该第二反馈信息用于指示该第一天线面板关闭。这样，本申请实施例的网络设备能够获知天线面板的状态，进而能够进行合理的调度天线面板，提高了数据传输效率。
在一些可能的实现方式中，在发送该第一反馈信息或该第二反馈信息之前，该方法还包括：根据第一映射关系和该第一下行信号资源集合，确定该第一下行信号资源集合对应的该第一天线面板，该第一映射关系为该至少一个下行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板的映射关系。

在一些可能的实现方式中，在发送该第一反馈信息或该第二反馈信息之前，该方法还包括：根据第二映射关系、第三映射关系和该第一下行信号资源集合，确定该第一下行信号资源集合对应的该第一天线面板，第二映射关系为至少一个上报配置与至少一个下行信号资源集合的映射关系，该第三映射关系为至少一个上报配置和至少一个天线面板的映射关系。

在一些可能的实现方式中，该第二反馈信息包括至少一个字段，该至少一个字段的取 值为预设值时表示该第一天线面板关闭。
该至少一个字段取值为特殊值(例如，称为“预设值”)时表示该第一天线面板关闭。
第二方面，提供了一种确定天线面板状态的方法，该方法包括：发送配置信息，该配置信息包括至少一个下行信号资源集合；接收第一反馈信息或第二反馈信息，该第一反馈信息用于指示该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，其中，该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量为终端根据该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板在开启的状态下测量下行信号得到的，该第二反馈信息用于指示该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板关闭；根据该第一反馈信息或该第二反馈信息，确定该第一天线面板开启或关闭。
网络设备发送包括至少一个下行信号资源集合的配置信息，以及接收第一反馈信息或第二反馈信息，这样能够根据该第一反馈信息或第二反馈信息获知天线面板的状态，进而能够进行合理的调度天线面板，提高了数据传输效率。
在一些可能的实现方式中，该至少一个下行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板具有第一映射关系，该第一天线面板为该至少一个天线面板中对应于该第一下行信号资源集合的天线面板。

网络设备可以根据第二映射关系和第一下行信号资源集合，确定第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一上报配置。网络设备再根据该第三映射关系和该第一上报配置，确定该第一上报配置对应的第一天线面板。这样网络设备就可以根据第一下行信号资源集合的反馈信息确定出与该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板的开关状态，进而能够进行合理的调度天线面板，提高了数据传输效率。
在一些可能的实现方式中，该第二反馈信息包括至少一个字段，该至少一个字段的取值为预设值时表示该第一天线面板关闭。

上行信号资源集合和天线面板具有对应关系，上行信号资源集合中的资源和参考信号具有对应关系。终端确定第一上行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板是否开启，在开启的情况下，采用该第一天线面板发送第一参考信号。第一上行信号资源集合可以是该至少一个上行信号资源集合中的任意一个上行信号资源集合。也就是说，终端分别采用每个上行信号资源集合对应的天线面板，发送每个上行信号资源集合对应的参考信号。若第一上行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板关闭，则终端不发送该第一上行信号资源集合中的资源对应的参考信号。这样可以使得网络设备能够获知天线面板的状态，进而能够进行合理的调度天线面板，提高了数据传输效率。
在一些可能的实现方式中，该第一参考信号用于测量该第一上行信号资源集合中的第一资源的质量。
终端可以复用传统方案中用于测量资源的质量的参考信号(例如，第一参考信号)，这样终端不需要专门发送第一参考信号使得网络设备根据该第一参考信号确定天线面板的开关，从而节省了信令和资源开销。

在一些可能的实现方式中，该第一参考信号用于测量该第一上行信号资源集合中的第一资源的质量。
网络设备检测用于测量第一资源的质量的第一参考信号，并根据该第一参考信号确定天线面板的开关，避免了专门监听该第一参考信号，从而节省了信令和资源开销。
在一些可能的实现方式中，该至少一个上行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板具有映射关系，该第一天线面板为该至少一个天线面板中对应于该第一上行信号资源集合的天线 面板。
网络设备可以根据该映射关系，确定出每个上行信号资源集合对应的天线面板。进而可以根据每个上行信号资源集合中的资源对应的上行信号是由哪个天线面板检测的，进而确定出这个天线面板是开启或关闭，从而提高了数据传输效率。

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。终端的发送波束用于描述终端发送侧波束赋形信息，终端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的接收波束，或者，一个BPL包括一个终端的发射波束和一个网络设备的接收波束)的选择。用于终端基于网络设备的波束扫描实现对网络设备的发射波束和/或终端的接收波束的选择，以及，网络设备基于终端的波束扫描实现对终端的发射波束和/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，训练出终端最好的接收波束，可选地，终端可以上报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：
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、资源
在波束测量中，可以通过资源的索引来唯一标识该资源对应的波束。资源可以是上行信号资源，也可以是下行信号资源。上行信号包括但不限于上行随机接入序列，上行探测参考信号，上行控制信道解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal，DMRS)，上行数据信道解调参考信号，上行相位噪声跟踪信号(phase-tracking reference signals，PTRS)，探测参考信号(sounding reference signal，SRS)。下行信号包括但不限于：信道状态信息参考信号(channel state information reference signal，CSI-RS)、小区专用参考信号(cell specific reference signal，CS-RS)、UE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(demodulation reference signal，DMRS)，下行数据信道解调参考信号、下行相位噪声跟踪信号以及同步信号/物理广播信道块(synchronization system/physical broadcast channel block，SS/PBCH block)。其中，SS/PBCH block可以简称为同步信号块(synchronization signal block，SSB)。
资源通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令配置。在配置结构上，一个资源是一个数据结构，包括其对应的上行/下行信号的相关参数，例如上行/下行信号的类型，承载上行/下行信号的资源粒，上行/下行信号的发送时间和周期，发送上行/下行信号所采用的端口数等。每一个上行/下行信号的资源具有唯一的索引，以标识该下行信号的资源。可以理解的是，资源的索引也可以称为资源的标识，本申请实施例对此不作任何限制。
5、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。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。
6、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，AoA，平均到达角，AoA的扩展等。
7、波束管理
波束管理是R15协议中的一个波束测量流程，可以分为下行波束管理和上行波束管理两种。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统，例如：全球移动通信(global system for mobile communications，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)系统、通用分组无线业务(general packet radio service，GPRS)、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)、通用移动通信系统(universal mobile telecommunication system， UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access，WiMAX)通信系统、未来的第五代(5th generation，5G)系统或新无线(new radio，NR)等。
本申请实施例中的终端可以指用户设备、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。终端还可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol，SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop，WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant，PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备，未来5G网络中的终端或者未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(public land mobile network，PLMN)中的终端等，本申请实施例对此并不限定。
本申请实施例中的网络设备可以是用于与终端通信的设备，该网络设备可以是全球移动通信(global system for mobile communications，GSM)系统或码分多址(code division multiple access，CDMA)中的基站(base transceiver station，BTS)，也可以是宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access，WCDMA)系统中的基站(NodeB，NB)，还可以是LTE系统中的演进型基站(evoled NodeB，eNB或eNodeB)，还可以是云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network，CRAN)场景下的无线控制器，或者该网络设备可以为中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的网络设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备，5G系统中的基站的一个或一组(包括多个天线面板)天线面板，或者，还可以为构成gNB或传输点的网络节点，如基带单元(baseband unit，BBU)，或，分布式单元(distributed unit，DU)等，本申请实施例并不限定。
在一些部署中，gNB可以包括集中式单元(centralized unit，CU)和DU。gNB还可以包括有源天线单元(active antenna unit，AAU)。CU实现gNB的部分功能，DU实现gNB的部分功能。比如，CU负责处理非实时协议和服务，实现无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)，分组数据汇聚层协议(packet data convergence protocol，PDCP)层的功能。DU负责处理物理层协议和实时服务，实现无线链路控制(radio link control，RLC)层、媒体接入控制(media access control，MAC)层和物理(physical，PHY)层的功能。AAU实现部分物理层处理功能、射频处理及有源天线的相关功能。由于RRC层的信息最终会变成PHY层的信息，或者，由PHY层的信息转变而来，因而，在这种架构下，高层信令，如RRC层信令，也可以认为是由DU发送的，或者，由DU+AAU发送的。可以理解的是，网络设备可以为包括CU节点、DU节点、AAU节点中一项或多项的设备。此外，可以将CU划分为接入网(radio access network，RAN)中的网络设备，也可以将CU划分为核心网(core network，CN)中的网络设备，本申请对此不做限定。

图2示出了传统方案中下行波束管理的方法的示意性流程图。
201、网络设备向终端发送测量配置信息。
该测量配置信息可以携带在RRC信令中。测量配置信息主要包括资源配置信息和上报配置信息。资源配置信息是用于测量资源的相关的信息，在协议中可以通过三级结构(即资源配置(resourceConfig/resourceSetting)、资源集合(resourceSet)和资源(resource))进行配置。网络设备可以为终端配置一个或多个资源配置，每个资源配置包括一个或多个资源集，每个资源集可以包括一个或多个资源。每个资源配置、每个资源集或每个资源中都包括标识自己的索引。此外，每个资源配置、每个资源集或每个资源中还可以包括一些其他参数，例如，资源的周期、资源对应的信号类型等。上报资源配置信息是用于测量结果上报相关的信息，在协议中通过上报配置(例如，该上报配置为ReportConfig)进行配置。网络设备可以为终端配置一个或多个上报配置，每个上报配置包括上报指标、上报时间、上报周期和上报格式等上报相关的信息。此外，上报配置中还包括资源配置的索引，用于指示上报的结果是通过什么测量配置得到的。
其中，资源配置的具体格式如下所示：

上报配置的具体格式如下所示：

202，网络设备在测量配置信息中资源配置信息所配置的资源对应的资源粒上发送下行信号。
203，终端对该下行信号进行测量，确定各资源的质量(即资源对应的波束的质量)。
204，终端向网络设备发送波束测量报告。
波束测量报告包括一个或多个资源的索引，资源的质量等。表1示出了R15协议中波束测量采用的上报格式。其中，CSI-RS索引(CSI-RS index，CRI)字段和SSB资源索引(SSB resource index，SSBRI)字段用于指示要上报的资源索引。可以只上报CRI或SSBRI，也可以都上报。和是CRI字段和SSBRI字段的长度。RSRP是资源的质量。参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power，RSRP)的上报采用差分上报准则，即最好的资源的RSRP(表1中的RSRP字段)采用7比特量化上报，而其他RSRP(表1中的差分(differential)RSRP)字段采用4比特量化上报。其中，上述上报信息可以承载在物理上行控制信道(physical uplink control channel)或物理上行共享信道中(physical uplink shared channel)。

图3是传统方案中上行波束管理的方法的示意性流程图。
301，网络设备向终端发送上行信号资源配置信息。
该上行信号可以是SRS。网络设备可以为终端配置一个或多个用于上行波束管理的SRS资源集合，每个SRS资源集合包括一个或多个SRS资源。每个SRS资源与一个波束是关联的，每个SRS资源中对应一个SRS信号，通过测量这些SRS资源对应的SRS信号即可进行上行波束测量。
其中，SRS资源配置的具体格式如下所示：
Figure PCTCN2020092929-appb-000005
Figure PCTCN2020092929-appb-000006
302，终端按照各个SRS资源的配置，采用与该SRS资源关联的上行发送波束发送相应的SRS信号。
303，网络设备根据终端发送的各个SRS信号，测量各个SRS资源的质量。
下行波束管理用于网络设备选择下行数据传输的发送波束。如图4所示，网络设备通过测量配置信息为终端配置多个下行信号资源，每个下行信号资源与一个波束对应。每个下行信号资源对应一个下行信号，通过测量该下行信号，即可实现对该下行信号资源的测量。对于每个下行信号资源，网络设备通过与其对应的波束发送对应的下行信号，终端测量各个波束发送的下行信号，即可确定各个波束的质量。波束的质量可以通过RSRP表示。通过测量各个波束的RSRP，终端选择一个或多个RSRP最大的下行信号资源，并将选中的下行信号资源的索引和相应的RSRP上报给网络设备。网络设备再从中选择一个或多个下行信号资源(波束)，用于下行数据传输。
波束是通过天线面板(antenna panel)生成的，即通过对一个天线面板上的所有天线进行处理(例如，相位加权处理)，来形成波束信号。每个天线面板都可以生成多个不同指向的波束，但同一个时间只能生成一个。终端可以配备多个天线面板，终端可以选择其中质量较好的天线面板来进行数据传输。另一方面，为了节省电能，终端可以关闭某些天线面板。当某些天线面板关闭时，网络设备将无法调度这些天线面板进行上行数据传输。如果网络设备不知道哪些天线面板是开启的，哪些是关闭的，就会发生错误调度，例如调度一个已经关闭的天线面板进行上行数据传输，从而造成数据传输的效率较低。
应理解，天线面板可以简称为面板(panel)。天线面板开启可以描述为激活，天线面板关闭可以描述为未激活。天线面板的索引可以指一个专门用于标识一个天线面板的索引值。在不做特殊说明的情况下，本申请实施例中的天线面板是指终端的天线面板。

502，终端在该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板开启的情况下，发送第一反馈信息，该第一反馈信息用于指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，其中，该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量是由该第一天线面板测量下行信号得到的。相应地，网络设备接收该第一反馈信息。
具体地，该至少一个下行信号集合和至少一个天线面板具有对应关系，终端要测量某一个下行信号资源集合(例如，第一下行信号资源集合)中的资源的质量，需要采用该第一下行信号资源集合对应的天线面板(例如，第一天线面板)来测量。在测量之前，终端要判断该第一天线面板的状态是开启，还是关闭。在第一天线面板开启的情况下，终端可以采用该第一天线面板测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的任意一个资源的质量；在第一天线面板关闭的情况下，不测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量。该第一反馈信息可以指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的部分资源的质量，也可以是指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的全部资源的质量。
需要说明的是，第一下行信号资源集合中的任意一个资源可以对应一个下行信号，且该第一下行信号资源集合中的不同资源可以对应的下行信号可以相同，也可以不同。
还需要说明的是，该至少一个下行信号资源集合中除该第一下行信号资源集合之外的其他下行信号资源集合也可以根据对应的天线面板是否开启，进行资源的质量测量。此外，用于指示不同下行信号资源集合的资源的质量的第一反馈信息可以同时发送给网络设备，也可以分别独立发送给网络设备，本申请对此不进行限定。
还需要说明的是，该第一反馈信息可以携带下行信号资源集合中的资源的索引，这样网络设备能够根据该第一反馈信息获知该第一反馈信息中的资源质量为哪个资源的质量。 网络设备再根据该资源属于哪个下行信号资源集合，确定出对应的天线面板的状态。

在一个实施例中，该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板可以是由第一映射关系得到的。也就是说，第一映射关系中存储至少一个下行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板。该第一下行信号资源集合为该第一映射关系中至少一个下行信号资源集合中的任意一个下行信号资源集合，该第一天线面板为该第一映射关系中的至少一个天线面板中的任意一个天线面板。
需要说明的是，该第一映射关系可以以表格的形式体现。天线面板可以通过索引标识。
应理解，下行信号资源集合可以是resource set，也可以是resource setting。在该下行信号资源集合为resource set的情况下，多个resource set可以配置在一个resource setting中，也可以部分或全部配置在不同的resource setting中。
可选地，终端可以根据第一映射关系和第一下行信号资源集合确定该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板，该第一映射关系为至少一个下行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板的映射关系。
具体地，终端可以存储至少一个下行信号资源集合和至少一个天线面板的映射关系，这样终端在接收到配置信息之后，可以根据该映射关系确定出配置信息中包括的至少一个下行信号资源集合中每个下行信号资源集合对应的天线面板，再根据天线面板是否开启，确定发送第一反馈信息或第二反馈信息。
需要说明的是，一个下行信号资源集合可以对应一个或多个天线面板，或者一个或多个下行信号资源集合对应一个天线面板，本申请对此不进行限定。
应理解，该第一映射关系可以是协议规定的，也可以是网络设备和终端预先约定的，还可以是网络设备确定并告知终端的，本申请对此不进行限定。
可选地，网络设备可以发送指示信息，该指示信息用于指示该第一映射关系。
具体地，该指示信息可以单独发送，也可以携带在配置信息中，或者携带在无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令，或者介质接入控制-控制单元(medium access control-control element，MAC CE)，或者下行控制信息(downlink control information，DCI)中，本申请对此不进行限定。
在另一个实施例中，该第二映射关系为至少一个上报配置和至少一个下行信号资源集合的映射关系，该第三映射关系为至少一个上报配置和至少一个天线面板的映射关系。该第一下行信号资源集合可以是该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的任意一个下行信号资源集合，该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一上报配置可以是该至少一个上报配置中的任意一个上报配置，该第一天线面板可以是该至少一个天线面板中第一上报配置对应的天线面板。
需要说明的是，该第二映射关系或该第三映射关系可以是协议规定的，也可以是网络 设备和终端预先约定的，还可以是网络设备确定并告知终端的，本申请对此不进行限定。
可选地，终端可以根据第二映射关系、第三映射关系和该第一下行信号资源集合，确定该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板，该第二映射关系为至少一个上报配置和至少一个下行信号资源集合的映射关系，该第三映射关系为至少一个上报配置和至少一个天线面板的映射关系。
具体地，终端可以根据第二映射关系和第一下行信号资源集合，确定第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一上报配置。终端也可以根据该第三映射关系和该第一上报配置，确定该第一上报配置对应的第一天线面板。这样终端就可以确定出该第一下行信号资源集合与该第一天线面板对应。
需要说明的是，一个下行信号资源集合可以对应一个或多个上报配置，或者一个或多个下行信号资源集合对应一个上报配置。此外，一个上报配置对应一个或多个天线面板，或者一个或多个上报配置对应一个天线面板，本申请对此不进行限定。
可选地，该配置信息可以包括该至少一个上报配置。也就是说，配置信息中的至少一个上报配置与配置信息中至少一个下行信号资源集合具有映射关系。
503，终端在该至少一个下行信号资源集合中的第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板关闭的情况下，发送第二反馈信息，该第二反馈信息用于指示该第一天线面板关闭。相应地，网络设备接收该第二反馈信息。
需要说明的是，该第二反馈信息可以携带下行信号资源集合中的资源的索引，这样网络设备能够根据该第二反馈信息获知该第一反馈信息中的资源质量为哪个资源的质量。网络设备再根据该资源属于哪个下行信号资源集合，确定出对应的天线面板的状态。
需要说明的是，终端在执行完步骤501之后，可以执行步骤502，也可以执行步骤503，本申请对此不进行限定。
可选地，该第二反馈信息可以包括至少一个字段，该至少一个字段为预设值时表示该第一天线面板关闭。
具体地，该第一反馈信息和第二反馈信息都可以通过至少一个字段表示，通过该至少一个字段的取值来区分。例如，该至少一个字段取值为特殊值(例如，称为“预设值”)时表示该第一天线面板关闭。
例如，该至少一个字段为7bit，即该至少一个字段可以的取值为0～127，可以预先设置任意一个特殊值，终端在确定该第一天线面板关闭时，则该至少一个字段取值为该特殊值，例如，全0，或者全1。网络设备收到该第二反馈信息，解析到该第二反馈信息的至少一个字段的取值为该特殊值，则网络设备确定该第一天线面板为关闭状态。
可选地，该第一反馈信息和该第二反馈信息也通过不同的字段表示。
504，网络设备根据该第一反馈信息或该第二反馈信息，确定该第一天线面板开启或关闭。
因此，本申请实施例的确定天线面板状态的方法，终端要测量第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，需要采用该第一下行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板来测量。在测量之前，终端要判断该第一天线面板的状态是开启，还是关闭。在第一天线面板开启的情况下，终端可以采用该第一天线面板测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，并发送第一反馈信息，该第一反馈信息可以指示该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量。在第 一天线面板关闭的情况下，不测量该第一下行信号资源集合中的资源的质量，并发送第二反馈信息，该第二反馈信息用于指示该第一天线面板关闭。这样，本申请实施例的网络设备能够获知天线面板的状态，进而能够进行合理的调度天线面板，提高了数据传输效率。
上行波束管理用于终端选择上行数据传输的发送波束。如图4所示，网络设备通过测量配置信息为终端配置多个上行信号资源，每个上行信号资源与一个波束对应。每个上行信号资源包括一个上行信号，通过测量该上行信号，即可实现对该上行信号资源的测量。对于每个上行信号资源，终端通过与其对应的波束发送对应的上行信号，终端测量各个波束发送的上行信号，即可确定各个波束/上行信号资源的质量。具体的，在数据传输时，网络设备通过下行控制信息指示一个上行信号资源的索引，终端就会采用该上行信号资源对应的波束发送上行数据。
终端可以配备多个天线面板，终端可以选择其中质量较好的天线面板来进行数据传输。另一方面，为了节省电能，终端可以关闭某些天线面板。当某些天线面板关闭时，网络设备将无法调度这些天线面板进行上行数据传输。如果网络设备不知道哪些天线面板是开启的，哪些是关闭的，就会发生错误调度，例如调度一个已经关闭的天线面板进行上行数据传输，从而造成数据传输的效率较低。

具体地，上行信号资源集合和天线面板具有对应关系，上行信号资源集合中的资源和参考信号具有对应关系。终端确定第一上行信号资源集合对应的第一天线面板是否开启，在开启的情况下，采用该第一天线面板发送第一参考信号。第一上行信号资源集合可以是该至少一个上行信号资源集合中的任意一个上行信号资源集合。也就是说，终端分别采用每个上行信号资源集合对应的天线面板，发送每个上行信号资源集合对应的参考信号。相应地，网络设备检测每个上行信号资源集合中的资源对应的参考信号。
需要说明的是，上行信号资源集合中的一个资源可以对应一个参考信号，一个上行信号资源集合中的不同资源可以分别对应不同的参考信号，也可以对应相同的参考信号，本申请对此不进行限定。
应理解，网络设备“检测(detect)”参考信号可以理解为网络设备“监听(monitor)” 参考信号。
可选地，该第一参考信号用于测量该第一上行信号资源集合中的第一资源的质量。
具体地，终端可以复用传统方案中用于测量资源的质量的参考信号(例如，第一参考信号)。这样终端不需要专门发送第一参考信号使得网络设备根据该第一参考信号确定天线面板的开关，相应地，网络设备避免了专门监听该第一参考信号，从而节省了信令和资源开销。

可选地，若网络设备检测第一参考信号的结果如步骤602，则网络设备可以确定该第一天线面板的状态为开启的。
可选地，若网络设备检测第一参考信号的结果如步骤602，则网络设备还可以进一步确定该第一参考信号的质量。在第一参考信号的质量大于预设质量阈值的情况下，确定该第一天线面板开启；在第一参考信号的质量小于或等于预设质量阈值的情况下，确定该第一天线面板关闭。
需要说明的是，网络设备也可以是在多次检测到该第一参考信号的质量小于或等于预设质量阈值的情况下，确定该第一天线面板关闭。
可选地，步骤604之后，若该第一天线面板为关闭状态，网络设备还可以向终端发送第二配置信息，该第二配置信息用于调整该第一天线面板的配置参数。相应地，终端接收该第二配置信息，并根据该第二配置信息调整该第一天线面板的配置参数。
具体地，网络设备在获知第一天线面板为关闭状态的情况下，网络设备可以发送第二配置信息调整第一天线面板，例如，调整第一天线面板为开启状态等，从而使得网络设备能够调度该第一天线面板进行数据传输，从而提高了数据传输效率。
可选地，该第二配置信息可以单独发送，也可以携带在RRC信令、MAC CE信令或DCI信令中任一个信令中，本申请对此不进行限定。
