该实施例中,终端设备可以在上述多个RS的资源粒子(Resource Element,RE)上联合计算波束质量指标,该波束质量指标可以包括CSI参数(parameters)或计算波束质量等。In this embodiment, the terminal device may jointly calculate the beam quality index on the resource elements (Resource Elements, RE) of the multiple RSs. The beam quality index may include CSI parameters or calculated beam quality.
可选地,波束质量指标可以包括参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power,RSRP)、参考信号接收质量(Reference Signal Receiving Quality,RSRQ)和信号与干扰加噪声比(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio,SINR)中的至少一种。Optionally, the beam quality indicators may include reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ), and signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR). ) At least one of.
可选地,终端设备可以将多个RS分别得到的波束质量指标通过如下至少之一的算法进行运算,得到目标波束对的波束质量指标:线性平均;几何平均;调和平均;平方平均;加权平均;最小值最大化;最大值最小化。当然,本发明实施例中的算法也不局限于上述示例及其简单变化。Optionally, the terminal device may calculate the beam quality indicators respectively obtained by multiple RSs through at least one of the following algorithms to obtain the beam quality indicators of the target beam pair: linear average; geometric average; harmonic average; square average; weighted average ; The minimum value is maximized; the maximum value is minimized. Of course, the algorithm in the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the above examples and simple changes thereof.
具体例如,上述多个RS为两个,分别为第一RS和第二RS,终端设备可以将第一RS的波束质量指标(例如RSRP)和第二RS的波束质量指标(和第一RS的波束质量指标的种类相同,例如,均为RSRP)进行线性平均运算,将得到的结果作为目标波束对的波束质量指标。Specifically, for example, there are two multiple RSs, namely the first RS and the second RS. The terminal device can compare the beam quality index of the first RS (for example, RSRP) and the beam quality index of the second RS (and the beam quality index of the first RS). The types of beam quality indicators are the same, for example, all of them are RSRP) to perform a linear average operation, and the obtained result is used as the beam quality indicator of the target beam pair.
本发明实施例提供的波束质量测量方法可以分以下三种过程:The beam quality measurement method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be divided into the following three processes:
P-1:UE测量TRP的多个发送波束和以及UE的接收波束,并选择TRP的发送波束和UE的接收波束。典型场景:TRP扫描多个发送波束,UE扫描多个接收波束。UE向TRP报告选择的至少一个TRP发送波束。P-1: The UE measures the multiple transmit beams of the TRP and the receive beam of the UE, and selects the transmit beam of the TRP and the receive beam of the UE. Typical scenario: TRP scans multiple transmit beams, and UE scans multiple receive beams. The UE reports the selected at least one TRP transmission beam to the TRP.
P-2:UE测量TRP的多个发送波束,并选择TRP的发送波束。典型场景:与P-1相比,实现小范围的更为精确的发送波束扫描,可以看作是P-1的特例。UE向TRP报告选择的至少一个TRP发送波束。P-2: The UE measures multiple transmit beams of the TRP and selects the transmit beam of the TRP. Typical scenario: Compared with P-1, it can be regarded as a special case of P-1 to achieve a small range and more accurate transmission beam scanning. The UE reports the selected at least one TRP transmission beam to the TRP.
P-3:UE在TRP的同一个发送波束上测量UE的多个接收波束,并选择UE的接收波束。UE不向TRP报告。P-3: The UE measures multiple receive beams of the UE on the same transmit beam of the TRP, and selects the receive beam of the UE. The UE does not report to the TRP.
可选地,针对上述过程P-1和P-2,在上述实施例的S104基于多个RS确定目标波束对的波束质量指标之后,还可以包括如下步骤:发送波束测量报告,该波束测量报告包括上述波束质量指标和目标RS的标识。Optionally, for the foregoing processes P-1 and P-2, after S104 of the foregoing embodiment determines the beam quality index of the target beam pair based on multiple RSs, the following step may be further included: sending a beam measurement report, the beam measurement report Including the above-mentioned beam quality index and the identification of the target RS.
上述目标RS的标识和网络设备发送上述多个RS的发送波束之间存在关联关系,这样,网络设备在接收到目标RS的标识之后,即可识别出发送上述多个RS的发送波束,后续还可以通过该发送波束和终端设备之间进行数据或信号的传输。There is an association relationship between the identification of the target RS and the transmission beams of the multiple RSs sent by the network device. In this way, after the network device receives the identification of the target RS, it can identify the transmission beams that send the multiple RSs. Data or signal can be transmitted between the transmitting beam and the terminal device.
该目标RS的标识为可以将该目标RS与其他RS相区分的信息,例如,可以将目标RS使用的序列作为信号标识,或者将生成目标RS的序列的循环移位作为信号标识,或者将该目标RS的编号为信号标识。The identifier of the target RS is information that can distinguish the target RS from other RSs. For example, the sequence used by the target RS may be used as the signal identifier, or the cyclic shift of the sequence generating the target RS may be used as the signal identifier, or The number of the target RS is the signal identifier.
具体例如,目标RS为SSB,则目标RS的标识为SSB index;又例如,目标RS为CSI-RS,则目标RS的标识为CSI-RS index。For example, if the target RS is SSB, the identifier of the target RS is SSB index; for another example, if the target RS is CSI-RS, the identifier of the target RS is CSI-RS index.
本发明实施例提供的波束质量测量方法,终端设备接收多个RS,并通过这多个RS联合确定目标波束对的波束质量指标,相对于相关技术中采用一个RS确定目标波束对的波束质量指标的方案而言,可以提升波束质量的测量精度、降低时域滤波时间,达到更快、更准的波束训练的目的。In the beam quality measurement method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, a terminal device receives multiple RSs and jointly determines the beam quality index of the target beam pair through the multiple RSs. Compared with the related art, using one RS to determine the beam quality index of the target beam pair In terms of the solution, the measurement accuracy of the beam quality can be improved, the time-domain filtering time can be reduced, and the purpose of faster and more accurate beam training can be achieved.
以下将对本发明实施例提供的波束质量测量方法的实现原理进行详细解释:The implementation principle of the beam quality measurement method provided by the embodiment of the present invention will be explained in detail below:
相关技术中一个RS对应一个波束,网络设备无法通过增加RS来达到提升波束训练的速度和精度的效果。举例来说,假设终端设备可以采用8个接收波束,而网络设备给终端设备配置了16个RS,那么网络可以每2个RS对应终端设备一个波束。但终端设备只能在每个RS自己的RE上进行检测,而且在波束报告中,终端设备只能上报每个RS自己的波束质量,这样就无法使资源得到最大限度的利用。In the related art, one RS corresponds to one beam, and the network device cannot achieve the effect of improving the speed and accuracy of beam training by increasing the RS. For example, assuming that the terminal device can use 8 receiving beams, and the network device configures the terminal device with 16 RSs, then the network can correspond to one beam of the terminal device for every 2 RSs. However, the terminal device can only perform detection on each RS's own RE, and in the beam report, the terminal device can only report each RS's own beam quality, so that resources cannot be utilized to the maximum.
本发明实施例提出多个RS联合检测目标波束对的波束质量指标,同样是上面这个例子,终端设备可以在2个RS的RE上测量该波束的质量并且线性平均,这样就是使波束测量的收敛速度提升了一倍。如果一个波束使用更多的RS来检测,那么波束测量的收敛速度也就能提升地更多。The embodiment of the present invention proposes multiple RSs to jointly detect the beam quality index of the target beam pair. The same is the above example. The terminal device can measure the quality of the beam on the REs of the 2 RSs and linearly average the beam quality, so that the beam measurement is converged. The speed has doubled. If a beam uses more RSs to detect, the convergence speed of the beam measurement can be improved even more.
而且,网络设备可以根据系统中RS资源数目、终端设备数目、终端设备业务类型,来灵活配置波束训练,提升系统性能。Moreover, the network equipment can flexibly configure beam training according to the number of RS resources in the system, the number of terminal equipment, and the type of terminal equipment service to improve system performance.
例如,终端设备数目比较多时,每个终端设备的波束训练的RS就相对少配置一些(仍然可以是多个),训练速度降低一些;终端设备数目比较少时,每个终端设备的波束训练的RS就可以相对多配置一些,加速训练。举例来说,假设当前小区的终端设备数较少,网络设备可以发送多一些的RS,多个RS提高了波束测量的精度。假设当前小区的终端设备数较多,网络设备可以少发送一些的RS,减少占用的下行资源,提升下行系统容量。For example, when the number of terminal devices is relatively large, the RS for beam training of each terminal device is relatively less configured (still can be more than one), and the training speed is reduced; when the number of terminal devices is relatively small, the RS for beam training of each terminal device is relatively small. You can configure more to speed up training. For example, assuming that the number of terminal devices in the current cell is small, network devices can send more RSs, and multiple RSs improve the accuracy of beam measurement. Assuming that the number of terminal devices in the current cell is large, the network devices can send fewer RSs, reducing the occupied downlink resources, and increasing the downlink system capacity.
对于重要的、信道质量要求高的业务,可以通过配置更多的RS,使得波束训练更准确;对于信道质量要求一般的业务,就可以降低波束训练的要求。For important services with high channel quality requirements, more RSs can be configured to make beam training more accurate; for services with general channel quality requirements, the beam training requirements can be reduced.
对于上述提到的降低时域滤波时间,以下将对其原理进行详细说明:For the aforementioned reduction of time-domain filtering time, the principle will be explained in detail as follows:
由于终端设备对波束检测(或称测量)存在误差,波束本身也会随着时间进行变化,单次测量的结果往往不准。因此波束测量的结果需要进行时域上的层1滤波,通过多个时间上的测量,来提升测量精度、降低时变性的影响。甚至,还要在层1滤波的结果基础上,再进行层3滤波,来进一步提升波束测量的质量。Since the terminal equipment has errors in beam detection (or measurement), the beam itself will also change over time, and the result of a single measurement is often inaccurate. Therefore, the results of the beam measurement need to be filtered in the time domain, and multiple time measurements are used to improve the measurement accuracy and reduce the influence of time variation. Furthermore, it is necessary to perform layer 3 filtering on the basis of the result of layer 1 filtering to further improve the quality of beam measurement.
而本发明实施例通过提高RS的数量,通过多个RS联合确定目标波束对的波束质量指标,可以提升波束质量的测量精度。同时,这多个RS的时域资源可以比较接近,甚至可以占用相同的时域资源(通过频域区分),可以减少甚至省略上述层1滤波和层3滤波,因此可以降低时域滤波时间。In the embodiment of the present invention, by increasing the number of RSs and jointly determining the beam quality index of the target beam pair through multiple RSs, the measurement accuracy of the beam quality can be improved. At the same time, the time domain resources of these multiple RSs can be relatively close, and can even occupy the same time domain resources (differentiated by frequency domain), which can reduce or even omit the above-mentioned layer 1 filtering and layer 3 filtering, thus reducing the time domain filtering time.
可选地,本发明实施例还可以考虑在对现有协议的影响尽量小的情况下,实现多个RS联合检测的功能,为达到上述效果,本发明实施例考虑了三种不同的配置方法,都是对现有协议的改动较小的方法,以下将分三个实施例,对多个RS联合检测单个波束的具体配置方法进行详细介绍。Optionally, the embodiment of the present invention may also consider implementing the function of multiple RS joint detection under the condition that the impact on the existing protocol is as small as possible. In order to achieve the above effect, the embodiment of the present invention considers three different configuration methods. , Are all methods with minor changes to the existing protocol. The following three embodiments will be divided into three embodiments to introduce in detail the specific configuration method for multiple RSs to jointly detect a single beam.
实施例一Example one
上述多个RS(实施例100的S102中的接收的多个RS,后续类同)是通过高层信令配置的,该高层信令包括下述之一:The foregoing multiple RSs (the multiple RSs received in S102 of the embodiment 100, the subsequent similarities) are configured through high-level signaling, and the high-level signaling includes one of the following:
1)CSI测量配置信令(CSI-MeasConfig);1) CSI measurement configuration signaling (CSI-MeasConfig);
2)CSI报告配置信令(CSI-ReportConfig);2) CSI report configuration signaling (CSI-ReportConfig);
3)CSI资源配置信令(CSI-ResourceConfig);3) CSI resource configuration signaling (CSI-ResourceConfig);
4)非零功率CSI-RS资源集信令(NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet);或4) Non-zero power CSI-RS resource set signaling (NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet); or
5)CSI-SSB资源集信令(CSI-SSB-ResourceSet)。5) CSI-SSB resource set signaling (CSI-SSB-ResourceSet).
具体例如,在高层配置信令中配置某高层信令的状态为“on”,通过该高层信令可以指示终端设备接收上述多个RS。For example, in the high-level configuration signaling, the state of a certain high-level signaling is configured to be "on", and the high-level signaling can instruct the terminal device to receive the multiple RSs.
实施例一中,在终端设备发送波束测量报告的情况下,波束测量报告中包括目标RS的标识,该目标RS可以是上述高层信令关联的所有RS中:In the first embodiment, when the terminal device sends the beam measurement report, the beam measurement report includes the identification of the target RS, and the target RS may be among all RSs associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling:
标识号最大的;The largest identification number;
标识号最小的;The smallest identification number;
第一个配置的;The first configuration;
最后一个配置的;或The last configured; or
任意的一个。Any one.
可以理解,在目标RS是上述高层信令关联的所有RS中的标识号最大的、 标识号最小的、第一个配置的或最后一个配置的这几种情况下,网络设备在为终端设备配置上述多个RS时,是已经知道终端设备后续上报的目标RS具体是哪一个。It can be understood that in the cases where the target RS has the largest identification number, the smallest identification number, the first configuration, or the last configuration among all RSs associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling, the network device is configuring the terminal device In the above multiple RSs, it is already known which target RS is subsequently reported by the terminal device.
在目标RS是上述高层信令关联的所有RS中的任意的一个的这种情况下,网络设备在配置上述多个RS时,通常是不知道终端设备后续可能上报哪一个RS的标识,网络设备只有在接收到波束测量报告包括的(目标)RS的标识之后才知晓,后续可以使用该(目标)RS进行波束相关的指示。In the case that the target RS is any one of all RSs associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling, when the network equipment configures the above-mentioned multiple RSs, it usually does not know which RS identification may be reported by the terminal equipment subsequently, and the network equipment Only after receiving the identifier of the (target) RS included in the beam measurement report, the (target) RS can be used for beam-related instructions subsequently.
需要说明是的,本说明书各个实施例中提到的第一个/最后一个配置的RS,具体可以是指RS在配置中的顺序为第一个/为最后一个,例如,网络设备同时配置了多个RS,那么第一个配置的RS就是配置顺序中的第一个,最后一个配置的RS就是配置顺序中的最后一个。It should be noted that, the first/last configured RS mentioned in the various embodiments of this specification can specifically refer to the order of RS in the configuration as the first/last. For example, the network device is configured at the same time If there are multiple RSs, the first configured RS is the first in the configuration sequence, and the last configured RS is the last in the configuration sequence.
还需要说明是的是,本说明书各个实施例中提到的高层信令“关联”的RS,其中的“关联”还可以用其他类似的技术术语来替代,例如,“指示”、“配置”等。It should also be noted that, in the high-level signaling "associated" RS mentioned in the various embodiments of this specification, the "associated" can also be replaced by other similar technical terms, for example, "indication", "configuration" Wait.
具体例如,在高层信令是CSI测量配置信令(CSI-MeasConfig)时,该高层信令可以和CSI资源配置信令(CSI-ResourceConfig)关联,而CSI资源配置信令可以用来配置资源集,上述多个RS包含于该资源集内,在这种情况下,高层信令—CSI测量配置信令关联的RS,可以是CSI资源配置信令配置的资源集中的包括的多个RS。同样,CSI测量配置信令也可以直接配置RS资源和/或RS资源集,高层信令—CSI测量配置信令关联的RS,可以是其配置的多个RS和/或RS资源集中包括的多个RS。Specifically, for example, when the high-level signaling is CSI measurement configuration signaling (CSI-MeasConfig), the high-level signaling can be associated with CSI resource configuration signaling (CSI-ResourceConfig), and CSI resource configuration signaling can be used to configure resource sets The above-mentioned multiple RSs are included in the resource set. In this case, the RS associated with the high-level signaling—CSI measurement configuration signaling may be multiple RSs included in the resource set configured by the CSI resource configuration signaling. Similarly, CSI measurement configuration signaling can also directly configure RS resources and/or RS resource sets. The high-level signaling—RS associated with CSI measurement configuration signaling may be multiple RSs configured and/or multiple RS resource sets. RS.
又例如,在高层信令是CSI资源配置信令(CSI-ResourceConfig)时,该高层信令可以配置资源集,上述多个RS包含于该资源集内,在这种情况下,高层信令—CSI资源配置信令关联的RS,还可以称作是高层信令—CSI资源配置信令配置的RS。For another example, when the high-level signaling is CSI resource configuration signaling (CSI-ResourceConfig), the high-level signaling can configure a resource set, and the above-mentioned multiple RSs are included in the resource set. In this case, the high-level signaling— The RS associated with CSI resource configuration signaling can also be referred to as high-level signaling—RS configured by CSI resource configuration signaling.
又例如,在高层信令是CSI报告配置信令(CSI-ReportConfig)时,该高 层信令可以和CSI资源配置信令关联,而CSI资源配置信令可以用来配置资源集,上述多个RS包含于该资源集内,在这种情况下,高层信令—CSI报告配置信令关联的RS,可以是CSI资源配置信令配置的资源集中的包括的多个RS。For another example, when the high-level signaling is CSI report configuration signaling (CSI-ReportConfig), the high-level signaling can be associated with the CSI resource configuration signaling, and the CSI resource configuration signaling can be used to configure a resource set. It is included in the resource set. In this case, the RS associated with the high-level signaling—CSI report configuration signaling may be multiple RSs included in the resource set configured by the CSI resource configuration signaling.
可选地,波束测量报告中包括的目标RS可以是网络设备配置指示的,也可以是终端设备自主选择的,也可以是协议约定的。具体例如,协议约定终端设备发送的波束测量报告中包括的目标RS,是高层信令关联的所有RS中第一个配置的。Optionally, the target RS included in the beam measurement report may be instructed by the configuration of the network device, may also be independently selected by the terminal device, or may be agreed upon by a protocol. For example, the protocol stipulates that the target RS included in the beam measurement report sent by the terminal device is the first configured among all RSs associated with high-level signaling.
可选地,上述高层信令的重复开启配置(repetition)可以为开启状态,这样,网络设备可以通过同一个发送波束重复发送上述多个RS,便于终端设备扫描其多个接收波束,以确定波束质量较好的一个或多个接收波束。Optionally, the repetition configuration (repetition) of the above-mentioned high-level signaling may be in the on state, so that the network device can repeatedly send the above-mentioned multiple RSs through the same transmitting beam, so that the terminal device can scan its multiple receiving beams to determine the beam One or more receive beams with better quality.
可选地,实施例一中的上述高层信令关联的RS均配置了相同的QCL信息。Optionally, the RSs associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling in the first embodiment are all configured with the same QCL information.
可选地,实施例一中的上述高层信令关联的RS(目标RS除外,因为上述高层信令关联的RS也可能包括目标RS)的QCL信息遵循(follow)目标RS的QCL信息,该目标RS即上述多个RS中用于波束测量报告的RS。该实施例中,高层信令关联的RS(目标RS除外)如果配置了QCL信息,则无论这些RS的QCL信息与目标RS的QCL信息是否相同,这些RS均可以忽略原始配置的QCL信息,而遵循目标RS的QCL信息;当然,如果高层信令关联的RS(目标RS除外)未配置QCL信息,则这些RS可以直接遵循目标RS的QCL信息。Optionally, the QCL information of the RS associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling (except the target RS, because the RS associated with the above-mentioned high-level signaling may also include the target RS) in the first embodiment follows the QCL information of the target RS. RS is the RS used for beam measurement report among the above multiple RSs. In this embodiment, if the RS (except the target RS) associated with high-level signaling is configured with QCL information, no matter whether the QCL information of these RSs is the same as the QCL information of the target RS, these RSs can ignore the originally configured QCL information, and Follow the QCL information of the target RS; of course, if the RS (except the target RS) associated with the high-level signaling is not configured with QCL information, these RSs can directly follow the QCL information of the target RS.
