Description

Processing method, device and storage medium for enhancing uplink coverage

Technical field

The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a processing method, device, and storage medium for enhancing uplink coverage.

Background technique

In related technologies, coverage is one of the key factors that operators consider when commercializing cellular networks, because it will directly affect service quality, capital expenditures and operating costs. In addition, compared with the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, the New Radio (NR) system has a much higher operating frequency, such as 28 GHz or 39 GHz of FR2. In addition, many countries are providing more frequency bands for the frequency range FR1, such as 3.5GHz, which is usually higher than the frequency of LTE or 3G. Due to the higher frequency provided, the control channel has become the main bottleneck for coverage.

At present, in view of the coverage bottleneck, the method of repeated transmission in the time domain is generally adopted to enhance the gain. However, when using repeated transmission in the time domain, especially when transmitting channel resources with a relatively large number of transmission bits, the transmission can only be performed in the next symbol. In this way, the receiving time of the transmission channel will be prolonged, resulting in increased transmission delay and affecting the service quality of the service.

As shown in FIG. 2, this embodiment provides a processing method for enhancing uplink coverage, and the method includes:

Step S21, receiving resource configuration information of the common physical control channel PUCCH;

Step S22: When the channel condition meets the coverage limitation condition, according to the resource configuration information, the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment is retransmitted to the base station, or the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment is sent to the base station.

Here, the number of bits of the public PUCCH information in the second type format is smaller than the number of bits of the public PUCCH information in the first type format.

In an embodiment, the PUCCH of the first type format is a PUCCH of a long format structure; the PUCCH of the second type format is a PUCCH of a short format structure.

In an embodiment, the number of bits of the public PUCCH information of the first type format is greater than 2; the number of bits of the public PUCCH information of the second type format is less than or equal to 2.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel state meets the coverage limitation condition, and includes at least one of the following:

A signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) of the control channel of the user equipment is less than a predetermined threshold;

Here, the control channel is a channel for transmitting control information; the data channel is a channel for transmitting service information. Here, the data channel is a dynamically allocated channel.

In an embodiment, the control channel is an uplink control channel.

For example, the uplink control channel is a physical uplink control channel PUCCH, or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) or the like. For another example, the uplink control channel is a dedicated PUCCH or a common PUCCH.

Here, the dedicated PUCCH is a PUCCH used by the user equipment; the public PUCCH is a PUCCH common to multiple user equipments.

Here, the upper limit of the coverage limit is the upper limit of the coverage limit preset by the user equipment.

In an application scenario, the user equipment obtains the coverage of the current channel; compares the coverage of the current channel with a preset coverage to determine whether the coverage of the current channel reaches the preset coverage The upper limit of the coverage limit of the range; if yes, it is determined that the current channel coverage is limited.

In another application scenario, the user equipment obtains the signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel; compares the signal-to-noise ratio with a predetermined threshold; if the channel ratio is less than the predetermined threshold, determine the current channel Coverage is limited. Of course, in this embodiment, the corresponding relationship between the signal-to-noise ratio and the coverage area can also be preset; when the user equipment receives the signal-to-noise ratio, the corresponding coverage area is determined based on the signal-to-noise ratio; The coverage area is compared with a preset coverage area limit, and if it is determined that the coverage area is smaller than the coverage area limit, it is determined that the current channel coverage is limited.

In this way, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, it can be determined whether the coverage of the current channel is limited based on the coverage of the control channel and/or the data channel, and the received signal-to-noise ratio.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the current channel coverage is limited, the common PUCCH can be used to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment; in this way, the uplink transmission channel coverage can be improved. Or, when the current channel coverage is limited, the common PUCCH can be used to send the required PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request; thus, the waiting time for sending the required PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request can be shortened, thereby reducing the transmission delay of the retransmission.

In some embodiments, the step S22 includes: when the channel condition meets the coverage limitation condition, use the public PUCCH of the current time slot to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station, or send the user to the base station Retransmission resource configuration request of the PUCCH required by the device.

In this way, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the public PUCCH of the current time slot can also be used to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment or send the request to the base station to request the required PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request; in this way, the retransmission information can be added or sent The requested resource does not need to wait until the next time slot to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment or send the required PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request. In this way, on the premise of enhancing channel coverage, the transmission delay of retransmission of information or sending resource configuration requests can also be reduced, and the service quality of the service can be improved.

Of course, in other embodiments, the step S22 may also be to use the public PUCCH of the current symbol of the current time slot to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station when the channel condition meets the coverage limitation condition, or Send a PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment to the base station. In this way, the public PUCCH retransmission information or transmission request of the current symbol of the current time slot can be used, and resources for retransmission information or transmission request can be increased, so that there is no need to wait until the next symbol to retransmit the information or transmission request, thereby reducing transmission time. Extension.

In an embodiment, the step S21 includes: receiving the resource configuration information of the common PUCCH during the initial access of the user equipment;

The step S22 includes: after the initial access of the user equipment is completed, when the channel condition meets the coverage limitation condition, retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station according to the resource configuration information, or to the base station Send the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment.

In this way, in this embodiment, the UE can configure the public PUCCH during the initial access; after the initial access is completed, if the current channel coverage is limited, the configured public PUCCH can be used to retransmit the UE’s PUCCH The information sent or the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the UE.

In the above embodiment, before the step S22, the method further includes: obtaining the resource configuration information of the dedicated PUCCH after the initial access of the user equipment is completed; and saving the resource configuration information of the public PUCCH.

In this way, in this embodiment, after the initial access of the UE is completed, the configuration resource information of the dedicated PUCCH configured by the UE still maintains the configuration resource information of the public PUCCH. In this way, after determining that the channel coverage is limited, the use of the public PUCCH to transmit information can be adjusted in time.

In some embodiments, the step S22 includes: retransmitting the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station according to the information format of the public PUCCH information transmitted by the public PUCCH, or sending the user equipment to the base station Retransmission resource configuration request of the PUCCH required by the device.

Here, the information format of the public PUCCH information transmitted by the public PUCCH includes: a first type format and/or a second type format.

As shown in FIG. 3, in some embodiments, according to the information format of the public PUCCH information transmitted by the public PUCCH, the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment is retransmitted to the base station, or the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment is sent to the base station. The PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment includes:

Step S2201: If the information format of the public PUCCH information is the first type format, retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station.

In an embodiment, the step S22 includes: if it is determined that the user equipment is configured with the configuration resource information of the dedicated PUCCH in the first type of format, and the channel state meets the coverage limitation condition, based on all the information of the first type of format. The PUCCH retransmits the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the current channel coverage is limited, the PUCCH resource of the first type format can be used to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment with a relatively large number of bits. In this way, the integrity of the information sent by the PUCCH of the retransmission user equipment can be guaranteed, and the success rate of the retransmission can be improved.

Of course, in this embodiment, it is also possible to send a PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment to the base station based on the PUCCH resource in the first type format.

As shown in FIG. 4, in other embodiments, the information format of the public PUCCH information transmitted by the public PUCCH is to retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station, or send the information sent by the user equipment to the base station. The PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment includes:

Step S2202, if the information format of the public PUCCH information is the second type format, send the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment to the base station;

In an embodiment, the step S22 includes: if it is determined that the user equipment is configured with a dedicated PUCCH in the second format, and the channel state meets the coverage limitation condition, the PUCCH in the second format is sent to all users. The base station retransmits the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request of the user equipment.

Here, the number of bits of the dedicated PUCCH information in the second type format is less than the number of bits of the dedicated PUCCH information in the first type format.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the PUCCH resource in the second format can be used to send the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment to the base station. It is understandable that the number of bits of the retransmission resource configuration request is generally relatively small; in this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can use the common PUCCH to send the PUCCH retransmission resource configuration request required by the user equipment when the current channel coverage is limited. Next, it can also save channel resources.

Please refer to Figure 4 again, the method further includes:

Step S23, receiving the PUCCH retransmission resource information returned by the base station based on the retransmission resource configuration request;

Step S24, based on the PUCCH retransmission resource information, retransmit the information sent by the PUCCH of the user equipment to the base station.

In an embodiment, the PUCCH retransmission resource information includes: dedicated PUCCH retransmission resource information.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the user equipment can obtain the PUCCH retransmission resource information returned based on the retransmission resource configuration request, and use the PUCCH to retransmit the information sent by the user equipment PUCCH, thereby helping to enhance uplink coverage.

In some embodiments, the method further includes:

Here, the indication information is used to indicate whether the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited.

In an embodiment, if the information format of the public PUCCH information is the first format in the second type of format, the indication information is carried by reserved bits of the first format.

Here, the first format may be format 1, format 2, format 1a, format 1b, format 2a, or format 2b, etc.

Here, the reserved bits are currently idle bits in the first format.

It is understandable that the reserved bit has no bit value temporarily compared to other bits in the first format. When it is determined that it is necessary to indicate whether the channel coverage is limited, it is used to carry indication information indicating whether the channel is limited.

For example, when the reserved bit is one bit, the indication information may be "0", and the "0" is used to indicate that the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited; when the reserved bit is two When bit, the indication information may be "00", and the "00" is used to indicate that the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, one or more bits reserved in the first format can be used to carry the indication information; thus, when the PUCCH information in the first format is obtained, the indication information can be used to determine Whether the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited.

In another embodiment, if the public PUCCH information is a second format in the second format, the indication information is carried by a reserved sequence of the second format.

Here, the second format may be format 0.

Here, the reserved sequence is a sequence of one or more bits in the second format.

It is understandable that the sequence of one or more bits may be a basic sequence of the existing format 0, or a sequence redesigned based on a communication protocol; the reserved sequence has a bit value.

For example, the second format has 4 bits, such as 0101, and it is agreed that 1 to 3 bits are reserved for a "010" sequence, and then the "010" is used for at least the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, one or more specific sequences of format 0 may be agreed in a communication protocol to indicate that the channel coverage of the user equipment is limited.
