技术领域Technical field
本发明属于通信技术领域,具体涉及一种信息上报、发送方法、终端设备和网络设备。The invention belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to an information reporting and sending method, terminal equipment and network equipment.
背景技术Background technique
通常,终端设备在与网络设备通信时,可以向网络设备反馈下行信道的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI),以便网络设备可以基于终端设备反馈的CSI,确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵,并基于该预编码矩阵向终端设备发送数据,从而获得较佳的链路性能。Generally, when a terminal device communicates with a network device, it can feed back the channel state information (CSI) of the downlink channel to the network device, so that the network device can determine the precoding matrix for downlink transmission based on the CSI fed back by the terminal device , And send data to the terminal device based on the precoding matrix, so as to obtain better link performance.
随着多天线技术(Multi-Input Multi-Output,MIMO)的发展,终端设备和网络设备越来越多地基于多天线技术进行通信。在基于多天线技术进行通信时,终端设备也需要向网络设备反馈CSI。其中,为了减少在MIMO下终端设备向网络设备反馈CSI时的资源开销,终端设备通常采用隐式反馈的方式向网络设备反馈CSI。比如,终端设备可以向网络设备发送探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS),网络设备可以基于SRS确定上行信道信息,并利用上行信道与下行信道的互异性确定下行信道信息,进而确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵。With the development of multi-antenna technology (Multi-Input Multi-Output, MIMO), terminal devices and network devices are increasingly communicating based on multi-antenna technology. When communicating based on multi-antenna technology, the terminal device also needs to feed back CSI to the network device. Among them, in order to reduce the resource overhead when the terminal device feeds back CSI to the network device under MIMO, the terminal device usually feeds back the CSI to the network device in an implicit feedback manner. For example, the terminal device can send a sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS) to the network device, and the network device can determine the uplink channel information based on the SRS, and use the mutual difference between the uplink channel and the downlink channel to determine the downlink channel information, and then determine it for the downlink The transmitted precoding matrix.
通常,信道互异性存在于时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)系统和频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统中,然而,在FDD系统中,这种互异性仅为部分信道互异(partial reciprocity),即在角度域,下行信道的离开角(Angle of Departure,AoD)等于上行信道的到达角(Angle of Arrival,AoA),在时延域,上下行信道具有相同的多径时延和多径功率。但由于FDD系统中上下行信道位于不同的载波频率,所以上下行无线传输对应的波长不同。这样,导致在FDD系统中,网络设备无法有效地基于信道互异性确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵。Generally, channel disparity exists in Time Division Duplex (TDD) systems and Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) systems. However, in FDD systems, this disparity is only part of the channel disparity. (Partial reciprocity), that is, in the angle domain, the angle of departure (Angle of Departure, AoD) of the downlink channel is equal to the angle of arrival (Angle of Arrival, AoA) of the uplink channel. In the delay domain, the uplink and downlink channels have the same multipath Yanhe multipath power. However, because the uplink and downlink channels in the FDD system are located at different carrier frequencies, the wavelengths corresponding to the uplink and downlink wireless transmission are different. As a result, in the FDD system, the network device cannot effectively determine the precoding matrix for downlink transmission based on the channel disparity.

通常,终端设备和网络设备在基于多天线技术进行通信时,终端设备可以基于上下行信道的互异性向网络设备反馈CSI,以便网络设备确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵。具体地,终端设备可以向网络设备发送探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS),网络设备可以基于SRS确定上行信道信息,并利用上行信道与下行信道的互异性确定下行信道信息,进而确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵。Generally, when a terminal device and a network device communicate based on the multi-antenna technology, the terminal device can feed back CSI to the network device based on the reciprocity of the uplink and downlink channels, so that the network device can determine a precoding matrix for downlink transmission. Specifically, the terminal device may send a sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS) to the network device, and the network device may determine the uplink channel information based on the SRS, and determine the downlink channel information by using the disparity between the uplink channel and the downlink channel, and then determine the Precoding matrix for downlink transmission.
然而,在FDD系统中,上下行信道的互异性仅为部分互异性,即在角度域,下行信道的离开角等于上行信道的到达角,在时延域,上下行信道具有相同的多径时延和多径功率,但由于FDD系统中上下行信道位于不同的载波频率,所以上下行无线传输对应的波长不同。这样,终端设备将无法有效地基于信道互异性向网络设备反馈CSI。However, in the FDD system, the mutual dissimilarity of the uplink and downlink channels is only partial dissimilarity, that is, in the angle domain, the departure angle of the downlink channel is equal to the arrival angle of the uplink channel. In the delay domain, the uplink and downlink channels have the same multipath time. However, because the uplink and downlink channels in the FDD system are located at different carrier frequencies, the corresponding wavelengths for uplink and downlink wireless transmission are different. In this way, the terminal device will not be able to effectively feed back the CSI to the network device based on the channel reciprocity.
在实际的FDD系统中,经研究发现,在时延域,对于任意一条路径,上下行传输的距离相同,但波长不同,所以上下行信道冲激响应中该路径的相位不同。这样,如果网络设备已知下行信道对应的路径的相位信息,那么,网络设备将可以基于该相位信息以及上下行信道的部分互异性,确定得到下行传输的预编码矩阵。In an actual FDD system, research has found that in the delay domain, for any path, the uplink and downlink transmission distances are the same, but the wavelengths are different, so the phase of the path in the uplink and downlink channel impulse responses is different. In this way, if the network device knows the phase information of the path corresponding to the downlink channel, the network device can determine the precoding matrix for downlink transmission based on the phase information and the partial disparity of the uplink and downlink channels.
有鉴于此,本发明实施例提供一种信息上报、发送方法、终端设备和网络设备,终端设备,基于在FDD系统中上行信道和下行信道的部分互异性,终端设备可以基于网络设备下发的CSI-RS,确定下行信道的冲激响应,根据冲激响应,确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息,并将至少一条路径的相位信息上报给网络设备。这样,网络设备可以基于信道的部分互异性,在已知上行信道冲激响应的前提下,可以结合终端设备上 报的下行信道的至少一条路径的相位信息,确定得到用于下行传输的预编码矩阵,从而可以通过优化下行预编码设计,提升下行传输的吞吐量。In view of this, the embodiments of the present invention provide an information reporting and sending method, terminal equipment and network equipment. The terminal equipment is based on the partial difference between the uplink channel and the downlink channel in the FDD system. The CSI-RS determines the impulse response of the downlink channel, determines the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel according to the impulse response, and reports the phase information of the at least one path to the network device. In this way, based on the partial disparity of the channel, the network equipment can determine the precoding matrix used for downlink transmission by combining the phase information of at least one path of the downlink channel reported by the terminal device on the premise that the uplink channel impulse response is known. Therefore, the downlink transmission throughput can be improved by optimizing the downlink precoding design.

S102:根据网络设备下发的信道状态信息参考信号CSI-RS,确定下行信道的冲激响应。S102: Determine the impulse response of the downlink channel according to the channel state information reference signal CSI-RS issued by the network device.
在频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统中,终端设备和网络设备在基于多天线技术(Multi-Input Multi-Output,MIMO)进行通信的场景中,网络设备在向终端设备发送下行数据之前,可以预先配置信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signals,CSI-RS),并将CSI-RS下发给终端设备。In a frequency division duplex (Frequency Division Duplex, FDD) system, terminal equipment and network equipment are communicating based on multi-antenna technology (Multi-Input Multi-Output, MIMO). The network equipment is sending downlink data to the terminal equipment. Previously, channel state information reference signals (Channel State Information-Reference Signals, CSI-RS) can be pre-configured, and the CSI-RS can be delivered to the terminal device.
终端设备在接收到网络设备下发的CSI-RS后,可以根据CSI-RS测量估计下行信道的冲激响应,以便后续可以通过隐式反馈的方式向网络设备反馈下行信道的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI)。After the terminal device receives the CSI-RS issued by the network device, it can estimate the impulse response of the downlink channel based on the CSI-RS measurement, so that it can subsequently feed back the channel state information of the downlink channel to the network device through implicit feedback. State Information, CSI).
本实施例中,下行信道的冲激响应可以包含一条或多条路径(即下行信道可以对应一条或多条路径),假设网络设备的端口数目为N t,终端设备的接收天线的数目为N r,即终端设备和网络设备之间可以组合得到N r×N t个天线端口对,那么,若下行信道的冲激响应包含P条路径,则对应于天线端口对(n r,n t)的第p条路径的冲激响应分量可以表示为: In this embodiment, the impulse response of the downlink channel may include one or more paths (that is, the downlink channel may correspond to one or more paths), assuming that the number of ports of the network device is N t , and the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device is N r , that is, N r ×N t antenna port pairs can be combined between the terminal equipment and the network equipment. Then, if the impulse response of the downlink channel includes P paths, it corresponds to the antenna port pair (n r , n t ) The impulse response component of the p-th path can be expressed as:

Is a complex number, including real and imaginary parts, n r =1,2,...,N r , n t =1,2,...,N t , p =1,2,...,P.
S104:根据所述冲激响应,确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位 信息。S104: Determine the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel according to the impulse response.
在S104中,终端设备在得到下行信道的冲激响应后,可以确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息。In S104, after obtaining the impulse response of the downlink channel, the terminal device may determine the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel.
本实施例中,下行信道对应的至少一条路径中可以包括上述记载的多个天线端口对对应的路径,其中,一个天线端口对对应的路径可以是一条或多条。此外,多个天线端口对对应的路径可以共享相位信息(即多个天线端口对对应的路径具有相同的相位信息),也可以不共享相位信息(即多个天线端口对对应的路径具有不同的相位信息)。In this embodiment, the at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel may include the paths corresponding to the multiple antenna port pairs described above, where there may be one or more paths corresponding to one antenna port pair. In addition, the paths corresponding to multiple antenna port pairs can share phase information (that is, multiple antenna ports have the same phase information for the corresponding paths), or they may not share phase information (that is, multiple antenna ports have different paths for the corresponding paths). Phase information).
终端设备在根据下行信道的冲激响应,确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息时,以其中一个天线端口对(为了便于区分,以下可以由目标天线端口对表示)为例,具体可以包括以下步骤:When the terminal device determines the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel according to the impulse response of the downlink channel, take one of the antenna port pairs (for easy distinction, the following can be represented by the target antenna port pair) as an example, which may specifically include The following steps:
首先,根据多个天线端口对中的一个天线端口对对应的冲激响应,从该天线端口对对应的路径中选择至少一条目标路径,其中,至少一条目标路径的强度大于目标天线端口对对应的其余路径的强度。First, select at least one target path from the path corresponding to the antenna port pair according to the corresponding impulse response of one antenna port in the plurality of antenna port pairs, wherein the strength of at least one target path is greater than that of the target antenna port pair. The strength of the remaining paths.
本实施例中,至少一条目标路径可以表示为
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000003
其中,n r=1,2,…,N r,n t=1,2,…,N t。在从目标天线端口对对应的路径中选择至少一条目标路径时,至少可以包括以下两种方法:
In this embodiment, at least one target path can be expressed as
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000003
Among them, n r =1,2,...,N r and n t =1,2,...,N t . When selecting at least one target path from the paths corresponding to the target antenna port pair, at least the following two methods may be included:
第一种方法:the first method:
从天线端口对对应的路径中选择设定条数的路径,该设定条数的路径的强度大于目标天线端口对对应的其他路径的强度。其中,设定条数为协议值或由网络设备预先配置得到。A set number of paths are selected from the paths corresponding to the antenna port pair, and the strength of the set number of paths is greater than the strength of other paths corresponding to the target antenna port pair. Among them, the set number is a protocol value or pre-configured by the network device.
具体地,终端设备可以根据目标天线端口对对应的每条路径的冲激响应分量的强度,可以直接从中选出最强的N条路径作为目标路径,即目标路径
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000004
的条数为
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000005
其中,N为上述记载的设定条数。
Specifically, the terminal device can directly select the strongest N paths as the target path according to the strength of the impulse response component of the target antenna port to each corresponding path, that is, the target path

The number of
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000005
Where, N is the set number described above.
第二种方法:The second method:
从天线端口对对应的路径中选择强度大于或等于设定门限的至少一条路径,并将选择的至少一条路径作为目标路径。其中,设定门限为协议值或由网络设备预先配置得到。Select at least one path whose strength is greater than or equal to the set threshold from the paths corresponding to the antenna port pair, and use the selected at least one path as the target path. Among them, the set threshold is a protocol value or pre-configured by the network device.
在一种实现方式中,设定门限可以是绝对门限,终端设备在选择目标路径时,可以直接从目标天线端口对对应的路径中选择强度大于或等于绝对门限的至少一条路径作为目标路径。In an implementation manner, the set threshold may be an absolute threshold. When selecting the target path, the terminal device may directly select at least one path with a strength greater than or equal to the absolute threshold from the path corresponding to the target antenna port pair as the target path.
以目标天线端口对对应的路径的冲激响应分量为S102中记载的
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000006
为例,终端设备根据绝对门限选择得到的至少一条目标路径可以表示为:
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000007
T 1为绝对门限。
Take the impulse response component of the target antenna port to the corresponding path as recorded in S102
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000006
As an example, at least one target path selected by the terminal device according to the absolute threshold can be expressed as:
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000007
T 1 is the absolute threshold.
在另一种实现方式中,设定门限也可以是相对于某个参考值的门限,其中,该参考值可以优选为目标天线端口对对应的最强路径的强度值。这样,终端设备在选择至少一条目标路径时,可以从目标天线端口对对应的路径中选择强度大于或等于相对门限的至少一条路径作为目标路径。In another implementation manner, the set threshold may also be a threshold relative to a certain reference value, where the reference value may preferably be the intensity value of the strongest path corresponding to the target antenna port pair. In this way, when the terminal device selects at least one target path, it can select at least one path whose strength is greater than or equal to the relative threshold from the path corresponding to the target antenna port pair as the target path.
仍以上述
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000008
为例,假设相对门限是相对于最强路径的门限,最强路径的冲激响应分量表示为
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000009
那么,终端设备根据相对门限选择得到的至少一条目标路径可以表示为:
Still with the above
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000008
As an example, suppose the relative threshold is the threshold relative to the strongest path, and the impulse response component of the strongest path is expressed as
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000009
Then, the at least one target path selected by the terminal device according to the relative threshold can be expressed as:

Among them, T 2 and T 3 are relative thresholds.
其次,根据至少一条目标路径的冲激响应分量,确定至少一条目标路径的相位信息。Secondly, the phase information of at least one target path is determined according to the impulse response component of at least one target path.
本实施例中,相位信息中可以包括至少一条目标路径各自的相位以及至少一条目标路径之间的相位差(针对目标路径的条数大于1的情况)中 的至少一种。In this embodiment, the phase information may include at least one of the respective phases of at least one target path and the phase difference between at least one target path (for the case where the number of target paths is greater than 1).
若相位信息中包括至少一条目标路径各自的相位,则在确定至少一条目标路径的相位信息时,可以直接根据至少一条目标路径各自的冲激响应分量,计算得到至少一条目标路径各自的相位。If the phase information includes the respective phases of at least one target path, when determining the phase information of the at least one target path, the respective phases of the at least one target path can be calculated directly based on the respective impulse response components of the at least one target path.
若相位信息中包括至少一条目标路径之间的相位差,则在确定至少一条目标路径的相位信息时,可以以目标路径中的一条路径作为参考路径,根据参考路径的冲激响应分量以及目标路径中其余路径的冲激响应分量,确定参考路径与其余路径之间的相位差。优选地,参考路径可以是目标路径中强度最强的一条路径。If the phase information includes the phase difference between at least one target path, when determining the phase information of at least one target path, one path in the target path can be used as the reference path, and according to the impulse response component of the reference path and the target path Determine the phase difference between the reference path and the remaining paths by using the impulse response components of the remaining paths. Preferably, the reference path may be the path with the strongest intensity among the target paths.
以至少一条目标路径为

为例,假设参考路径为
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000013
中强度最强的路径
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000014
则参考路径与其余路径之间的相位差可以表示为:
Take at least one target path as

其中,ang为取复数辅角操作。

Among them, ang is the operation of taking the complex auxiliary angle.
需要说明的是,本实施例通过从天线端口对对应的路径中选择至少一条目标路径,并确定至少一条目标路径的相位信息,可以减少后续向网络设备上报的相位信息的数量,进而减少上行资源的消耗,此外,终端设备通过确定强度较高的路径的相位信息,还可以避免后续上报相位信息时,将强度较弱的可以视为无效的路径的相位信息上报。可选地,在不考虑上行资源消耗的情况下,终端设备在确定天线端口对对应的路径的相位信息时,可以不区分强径和弱径,而是确定天线端口对对应的每条路径的相位信息。这里可以以确定至少一条目标路径的相位信息为例进行说明。It should be noted that in this embodiment, by selecting at least one target path from the paths corresponding to the antenna port pair, and determining the phase information of the at least one target path, the amount of phase information subsequently reported to the network device can be reduced, thereby reducing uplink resources. In addition, by determining the phase information of the path with higher intensity, the terminal device can also avoid reporting the phase information of the path with weaker intensity that can be regarded as invalid when the phase information is subsequently reported. Optionally, without considering the consumption of uplink resources, when determining the phase information of the path corresponding to the antenna port pair, the terminal device may not distinguish between the strong path and the weak path, but determine the path of each path corresponding to the antenna port pair. Phase information. Here, the phase information of at least one target path can be determined as an example for description.
可选地,终端设备在基于上述记载的方法确定得到一个天线对对应的 至少一条目标路径的相位信息后,若目标路径的条数大于1,则还可以将多条目标路径按照强度单调递增或单调递减的顺序排列,得到多条路径对应的路径列表,并将多条目标路径的相位信息按照对应的目标路径在所述路径列表中的排列顺序排列,得到多条目标路径的相位信息对应的相位列表。Optionally, after the terminal device determines and obtains the phase information of at least one target path corresponding to an antenna pair based on the above-mentioned method, if the number of target paths is greater than 1, it may also monotonically increase or increase the multiple target paths according to the intensity. Arrange in a monotonically decreasing order to obtain a path list corresponding to multiple paths, and arrange the phase information of the multiple target paths according to the order in which the corresponding target paths are arranged in the path list to obtain the phase information corresponding to the multiple target paths Phase list.
也就是说,路径列表中包括的多条目标路径是有序的,相位列表中包括的相位信息也是有序的,这样,在后续将相位信息上报给网络设备后,网络设备可以根据路径列表和相位列表的有序性,确定相位列表中的哪个相位信息对应哪条目标路径。其中,若相位列表中的相位信息为相位差,则相位列表中的元素个数比路径列表中的元素个数少1个。That is to say, the multiple target paths included in the path list are ordered, and the phase information included in the phase list is also ordered. In this way, after the phase information is subsequently reported to the network device, the network device can follow the path list and The order of the phase list determines which phase information in the phase list corresponds to which target path. Wherein, if the phase information in the phase list is a phase difference, the number of elements in the phase list is one less than the number of elements in the path list.
本实施例中,终端设备在确定一个天线端口对应的路径的相位信息后,若多个天线端口对对应的路径具有相同的相位信息,则可以将该天线端口对应的路径的相位信息作为其他天线端口对对应的路径的相位信息,进而得到一个路径列表和一个相位列表;若多个天线端口对对应的路径具有不同的相位信息,则可以基于相同的方法确定其他目标天线端口对应的路径的相位信息,进而得到多个路径列表和多个相位列表,其中,一个天线端口对对应一个路径列表和一个相位列表。In this embodiment, after the terminal device determines the phase information of the path corresponding to one antenna port, if multiple antenna ports have the same phase information for the corresponding path, the phase information of the path corresponding to the antenna port can be used as other antennas. The phase information of the path corresponding to the port pair is obtained, and then a path list and a phase list are obtained; if multiple antenna ports have different phase information for the corresponding paths, the phases of the paths corresponding to other target antenna ports can be determined based on the same method Information, and then obtain multiple path lists and multiple phase lists, where one antenna port pair corresponds to one path list and one phase list.
S106:将所述至少一条路径的相位信息上报给所述网络设备,所述相位信息用于所述网络设备确定下行传输的预编码矩阵。S106: Report the phase information of the at least one path to the network device, where the phase information is used by the network device to determine a precoding matrix for downlink transmission.
在S106中,终端设备在基于S104中记载的方法确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息后,可以将该相位信息上报给网络设备,以便网络设备可以基于该相位信息确定用于下行数据传输的预编码矩阵。In S106, after the terminal device determines the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel based on the method recorded in S104, it can report the phase information to the network device so that the network device can determine that it is used for downlink data transmission based on the phase information The precoding matrix.
优选地,若终端设备确定得到的是上述记载的至少一条目标路径的相位信息时,则可以将至少一条目标路径的相位信息上报给网络设备。其中,终端设备在将至少一条目标路径的相位信息上报给网络设备时,可以 将上述记载的相位列表上报给网络设备,以便网络设备可以基于相位列表的有序性确定相位列表中的哪个相位信息对应下行信道的哪条路径。以下可以以终端设备上报至少一条目标路径的相位信息为了进行说明。Preferably, if the terminal device determines that the phase information of at least one target path recorded above is obtained, it may report the phase information of at least one target path to the network device. Wherein, when the terminal device reports the phase information of at least one target path to the network device, it can report the phase list recorded above to the network device, so that the network device can determine which phase information in the phase list based on the order of the phase list Which path corresponds to the downlink channel. In the following, the terminal device may report the phase information of at least one target path for description.
本实施例中,终端设备在将相位列表上报给网络设备之前,还可以对相位列表中至少一条路径的相位信息进行量化,以便将量化后的相位信息上报给网络设备,其中,一条路径的相位信息量化后得到至少一比特。In this embodiment, before reporting the phase list to the network device, the terminal device may also quantify the phase information of at least one path in the phase list, so as to report the quantized phase information to the network device. Among them, the phase of one path After the information is quantized, at least one bit is obtained.
终端设备在对至少一条路径的相位信息进行量化时,若至少一条路径的条数大于1,则不同路径的相位信息量化后得到的比特数目可以相同,即每条路径的相位信息均量化为固定数目的比特,其中,固定数目的比特可以是协议值,也可以由网络设备预先配置。When the terminal equipment quantizes the phase information of at least one path, if the number of at least one path is greater than 1, the number of bits obtained after the quantization of the phase information of different paths can be the same, that is, the phase information of each path is quantized to be fixed The number of bits, where the fixed number of bits can be the protocol value, or can be pre-configured by the network device.
需要说明的是,若终端设备和网络设备之间的多个天线端口对对应的路径具有相同的相位信息,即多个天线端口对对应一个路径列表和一个相位列表,则,假设相位列表由Φ表示,Φ中包括|Φ|个元素,那么,共计需要量化的相位信息的个数为|Φ|,量化后的比特数为M×|Φ|,M为对每个相位信息量化后得到的比特数目,||为取列表元素个数运算符。It should be noted that if the paths corresponding to multiple antenna port pairs between the terminal device and the network device have the same phase information, that is, multiple antenna port pairs correspond to a path list and a phase list, then it is assumed that the phase list is determined by Φ Means that Φ includes |Φ| elements, then the total number of phase information that needs to be quantized is |Φ|, the number of quantized bits is M×|Φ|, and M is obtained after quantizing each phase information The number of bits, || is the operator for taking the number of elements in the list.

If the paths corresponding to multiple antenna port pairs between the terminal device and the network device have different phase information, that is, multiple antenna port pairs correspond to multiple path lists and multiple phase lists, then it is assumed that the phase list is determined by

The number of bits after quantization is
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000021
M is the number of bits obtained after quantizing each phase information.
此外,终端设备在对至少一条路径的相位信息进行量化时,若至少一条路径的条数大于1,则不同路径的相位信息量化后得到的比特数目也可以不同,其中,第一路径的相位信息量化后得到的比特数目,大于第二路径的相位信息量化后得到的比特数目,第一路径的强度大于第二路径的强 度。也就是说,对不同强度的路径的相位信息进行不同精度的量化,路径的强度越强,路径的相位信息量化后得到的比特数目越多。In addition, when the terminal device quantizes the phase information of at least one path, if the number of at least one path is greater than 1, the number of bits obtained after quantizing the phase information of different paths may also be different. Among them, the phase information of the first path The number of bits obtained after quantization is greater than the number of bits obtained after quantization of the phase information of the second path, and the strength of the first path is greater than the strength of the second path. That is to say, the phase information of the paths of different intensities is quantized with different accuracy. The stronger the intensity of the path, the greater the number of bits obtained after quantizing the phase information of the path.
需要说明的是,不论终端设备和网络设备之间的多个天线端口对对应的路径是否具有相同的相位信息,在对不同路径的相位信息进行量化,以得到不同比特数目的量化结果时,都可以按照路径的强度,量化得到相应的比特数目,这里不再详细说明。It should be noted that regardless of whether the multiple antenna ports between the terminal device and the network device have the same phase information for the corresponding paths, when the phase information of different paths is quantized to obtain the quantization results with different numbers of bits, all The corresponding number of bits can be quantified according to the strength of the path, which will not be described in detail here.
终端设备在对多条路径的相位信息进行量化后,在将量化后的相位信息上报给网络设备时,可以将量化后的相位信息单独上报给网络设备,也可以将量化后的相位信息携带在信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI)中上报给网络设备,这里不做具体限定。After the terminal device quantizes the phase information of multiple paths, when reporting the quantized phase information to the network device, it can report the quantized phase information to the network device separately, or it can carry the quantized phase information in The channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI) is reported to the network device, which is not specifically limited here.
此外,终端设备在将量化后的相位信息上报给网络设备时,上报方式可以是周期上报、非周期上报、半持续上报中的至少一种,所使用的信道可以是物理上行链路控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)以及物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)中的至少一种,这里也不做具体限定。In addition, when the terminal device reports the quantized phase information to the network device, the reporting method can be at least one of periodic reporting, aperiodic reporting, and semi-continuous reporting, and the channel used can be a physical uplink control channel ( At least one of Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) and Physical Uplink Shared Channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, PUSCH) is not specifically limited here.
终端设备在将量化后的至少一条路径的相位信息上报给网络设备后,网络设备可以基于该相位信息,确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵,具体实现方式可以参见图2所示实施例中记载的内容,这里不再重复描述。After the terminal device reports the quantized phase information of at least one path to the network device, the network device can determine the precoding matrix for downlink transmission based on the phase information. The specific implementation can be found in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 The content is not repeated here.
在本发明实施例中,基于在FDD系统中上行信道和下行信道的部分互异性,终端设备可以基于网络设备下发的CSI-RS,确定下行信道的冲激响应,根据冲激响应,确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息,并将至少一条路径的相位信息上报给网络设备。这样,网络设备可以基于信道的部分互异性,在已知上行信道冲激响应的前提下,可以结合终端设备上报的下行信道的至少一条路径的相位信息,确定得到用于下行传输的预编码矩阵,从而可以通过优化下行预编码设计,提升下行传输的吞吐量。In the embodiment of the present invention, based on the partial disparity between the uplink channel and the downlink channel in the FDD system, the terminal device can determine the impulse response of the downlink channel based on the CSI-RS issued by the network device, and determine the downlink channel based on the impulse response. The phase information of at least one path corresponding to the channel is reported, and the phase information of the at least one path is reported to the network device. In this way, based on the partial disparity of the channel, the network equipment can determine the precoding matrix used for downlink transmission by combining the phase information of at least one path of the downlink channel reported by the terminal device on the premise that the uplink channel impulse response is known. Therefore, the downlink transmission throughput can be improved by optimizing the downlink precoding design.
图2为本发明的一个实施例信息发送方法的流程示意图,所述信息发送方法应用于网络设备,具体可以包括以下步骤。FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of an information sending method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The information sending method is applied to a network device and may specifically include the following steps.
S202:接收来自终端设备的至少一条路径的相位信息,至少一条路径为下行信道对应的路径,相位信息由终端设备根据下行信道的冲激响应确定得到,冲激响应由终端设备根据网络设备下发的CSI-RS确定得到。S202: Receive phase information of at least one path from a terminal device, at least one path is a path corresponding to a downlink channel, the phase information is determined by the terminal device according to the impulse response of the downlink channel, and the impulse response is issued by the terminal device according to the network device The CSI-RS is determined.
在FDD系统中,终端设备和网络设备在基于多天线技术进行通信的场景中,网络设备在向终端设备发送下行数据之前,可以预先配置CSI-RS,并将CSI-RS下发给终端设备。In the FDD system, in a scenario where terminal equipment and network equipment communicate based on multi-antenna technology, the network equipment can pre-configure CSI-RS before sending downlink data to the terminal equipment and deliver the CSI-RS to the terminal equipment.
终端设备在接收到CSI-RS后,可以基于图1所示实施例中记载的方法,根据CSI-RS确定下行信道的冲激响应,根据冲激响应确定下行信道对应的至少一条路径的相位信息,并将该相位信息发送给网络设备,此时,网络设备可以接收到来自终端设备的该相位信息。After receiving the CSI-RS, the terminal device can determine the impulse response of the downlink channel based on the CSI-RS based on the method recorded in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, and determine the phase information of at least one path corresponding to the downlink channel based on the impulse response , And send the phase information to the network device. At this time, the network device can receive the phase information from the terminal device.
S204:根据来自终端设备的探测参考信号SRS,确定上行信道的冲激响应。S204: Determine the impulse response of the uplink channel according to the sounding reference signal SRS from the terminal device.
在S204中,网络设备可以根据来自终端设备的探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS),测量得到上行信道的冲激响应。In S204, the network device can measure the impulse response of the uplink channel according to the sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS) from the terminal device.
本实施例中,上行信道的冲激响应也可以包含至少一条路径,该至少一条路径可以是下行信道的冲激响应包含的至少一条路径。假设网络设备的端口数目为N t,终端设备的接收天线的数目为N r,即终端设备和网络设备之间可以组合得到N r×N t个天线端口对,那么,若上行信道的冲激响应包含P条路径,则对应于天线端口对(n r,n t)的第p条路径的冲激响应分量可以表示为: In this embodiment, the impulse response of the uplink channel may also include at least one path, and the at least one path may be at least one path included in the impulse response of the downlink channel. Assuming that the number of ports of the network device is N t , and the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device is N r , that is, N r ×N t antenna port pairs can be combined between the terminal device and the network device. Then, if the impulse of the uplink channel The response contains P paths, then the impulse response component of the p-th path corresponding to the antenna port pair (n r , n t) can be expressed as:

S206:根据相位信息以及上行信道的冲激响应,确定下行传输的预编码矩阵。S206: Determine a precoding matrix for downlink transmission according to the phase information and the impulse response of the uplink channel.
具体地,首先,网络设备可以根据来自终端设备的相位信息以及上行信道的冲激响应,确定下行信道的冲激响应。Specifically, first, the network device may determine the impulse response of the downlink channel according to the phase information from the terminal device and the impulse response of the uplink channel.
在FDD系统中,基于上下行信道的部分互异性可知,下行信道的冲激响应的至少一条路径中每条路径的时延和幅度,等于上行信道的冲激响应的至少一条路径中对应的每条路径的时延和幅度,因此,在已知下行信道的冲激响应中的至少一条路径的相位信息的情况下,基于S204中记载的上行信道的冲激响应,可以得到下行信道的冲激响应。In the FDD system, based on the partial disparity of the uplink and downlink channels, it can be known that the delay and amplitude of each path in at least one path of the impulse response of the downlink channel are equal to each path corresponding to the impulse response of the uplink channel. The delay and amplitude of each path, therefore, in the case of known phase information of at least one path in the impulse response of the downlink channel, the impulse response of the downlink channel can be obtained based on the impulse response of the uplink channel recorded in S204 response.

A list of phases formed.
其次,根据下行信道的冲激响应,确定用于下行传输的预编码矩阵。Secondly, according to the impulse response of the downlink channel, the precoding matrix for downlink transmission is determined.
具体地,网络设备在确定得到下行信道的冲激响应后,可以对下行信道的冲激响应进行傅里叶变换得到下行信道的频域响应,该频域响应可以表示为矩阵H k,其中,k=k 1,k 1+1,…,k 2,具体可以理解为预编码资源组(Precoding Resource Group,PRG)内的子载波索引,PRG内的资源粒子可以共享相同的预编码矩阵。 Specifically, after determining to obtain the impulse response of the downlink channel, the network device may perform Fourier transform on the impulse response of the downlink channel to obtain the frequency domain response of the downlink channel, and the frequency domain response may be expressed as a matrix H k , where: k=k 1 , k 1 +1,..., k 2 , which can be specifically understood as a subcarrier index in a precoding resource group (Precoding Resource Group, PRG), and resource particles in the PRG can share the same precoding matrix.
在得到下行信道的频域响应H k后,可以对其自相关矩阵进行特征值分解得到特征矩阵Q,
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000033
再得到预编码矩阵W,其中,预编 码矩阵W为矩阵Q的前r列,r为秩,属于CSI的一部分,具体可以由终端设备反馈给网络设备。
After the frequency domain response H k of the downlink channel is obtained, the eigenvalue decomposition of its autocorrelation matrix can be performed to obtain the eigenvalue matrix Q,
Figure PCTCN2020114518-appb-000033
The precoding matrix W is then obtained, where the precoding matrix W is the first r column of the matrix Q, and r is the rank, which belongs to a part of the CSI, and can be specifically fed back by the terminal device to the network device.
这样,网络设备在得到预编码矩阵W后,可以基于该预编码矩阵向终端设备发送下行数据,从而获得较佳的链路性能。In this way, after the network device obtains the precoding matrix W, it can send downlink data to the terminal device based on the precoding matrix, so as to obtain better link performance.

In this way, after the network device receives the phase information from the terminal device, it can be based on the partial disparity of the channel to determine the impulse response of the upstream channel. Under the premise, the phase information of at least one path of the downlink channel reported by the terminal device can be combined to determine the precoding matrix used for downlink transmission, so that the downlink transmission throughput can be improved by optimizing the downlink precoding design.
