具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例进行阐述。
在基于定位参考信号(Positioning Reference Signal,PRS)的观测到达时间差(Observed Time Difference Of Arrival,OTDOA)定位方案中,适用的通信系统的结构示意图如图1所示,该通信系统可包括但不限于一个用户设备和三个发送接收节点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP),图1所示的设备数量和形态用于举例并不构成对本申请实施例的限定,实际应用中可以包括三个以上的TRP,两个或两个以上的用户设备。图1所示的通信系统以一个用户设备101和三个TRP102为例进行阐述,三个TRP102中的任一TRP可向用户设备101发送PRS资源。
本申请中,用户设备也可以称为终端设备、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、用户代理或用户装置。本申请的实施例中的用户设备可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程医疗(remote medical)中的无线终端、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端等。
本申请中,网络设备是连接到网络中的物理实体,网络设备可以是基站或核心网网络单元,基站可以是5G基站(gNB),网络设备也可以是后续演进通信系统中的网络设备。
基于图1的通信系统,以用户设备为手机,TRP为基站,基站的数量为三个,分别为基站A、基站B以及基站C为例。当网络设备需要对用户设备(User Equipment,UE)进行定位时,基站A、基站B以及基站C分别向UE发送周期定位参考信号(Periodic Positioning Reference Signal,P-PRS)资源,若UE 将基站A看为主基站,将基站B和基站C看为副基站,则UE利用接收到的三个P-PRS资源,确定到基站B和基站C的两个参考信号时间差(Reference Signal Time Difference,RSTD)测量结果,并将两个RSTD测量结果上报网络设备;则网络设备将该两个RSTD测量结果换算成UE到基站B和基站C之间的距离的差,进而结合基站B和基站C的位置坐标,利用位置估计算法,计算得到UE的位置坐标,实现对UE的定位。然而,当UE移动且P-PRS的周期还未到时,就无法获得PRS的最新测量结果,从而造成基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度低、定位时延大。
为解决上述问题,本申请提出一种定位参考信号接收方法,用户设备UE接收非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息;然后用户设备根据A-PRS指示信息,确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集;进而用户设备在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS的测量结果。该方法中,UE在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,获得了各PRS的测量结果,实现了对A-PRS资源的接收,可增强PRS资源,进而提高基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度和降低定位时延。
本申请提出的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,比如,全球移动通信系统、LTE频分双工系统、LTE时分双工系统、通用移动通信系统、新无线系统以及后续演进的通信系统等。
为便于理解本申请公开的实施例,首先对本申请实施例涉及的一些概念进行阐述。这些概念的阐述包括但不限于以下内容。
A-PRS指示信息用于指示接收发送节点TRP所关联的A-PRS资源集是否被触发。TRP为发送A-PRS资源集的基站。A-PRS指示信息包括多个指示,一个指示用于指示一个接收发送节点TRP所关联的各非周期定位参考信号A-PRS资源集是否被触发。
基于上述描述,本申请实施例提出一种如图2所示的定位参考信号接收方法,该方法可以包括S201-S203:
S201:用户设备接收非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息。
A-PRS指示信息可以由下行控制信息DCI携带,即网络设备通过下行控 制信道将DCI发送至UE,UE通过接收DCI,进而接收到A-PRS指示信息。网络设备可以是基站或核心网网络单元,基站可以是5G基站(gNB),网络设备也可以是后续演进通信系统中的网络设备。
A-PRS资源的配置结构如图3所示,UE可接收多个TRP发送的多个A-PRS资源集,一个TRP可关联一个或多个A-PRS资源集,每个A-PRS资源集包括一个或多个A-PRS资源。比如,在图3中,TRP1所关联的A-PRS资源集有三个A-PRS资源集。A-PRS资源的配置增加了PRS资源配置的灵活性,可增强PRS资源。
一个指示可以以比特位图(bitmap)的方式分别指示一个TRP所关联的各A-PRS资源集是否被触发,也可以以比特(bit)的方式分别指示一个TRP所关联的各A-PRS资源集是否被触发。下面分别对两种方式进行说明。
在一种实现方式中,如图4a所示,多个指示中,一个指示以比特位图的方式分别指示一个TRP所关联的各A-PRS资源集是否被触发,且一个指示包括多个比特,一个比特用于指示一个A-PRS资源集是否被触发,该A-PRS资源集是该指示对应的TRP所关联的一个A-PRS资源集。示例性的,如图5a所示,A-PRS指示信息包括四个指示,每个指示对应一个比特位图,分别用于指示TRP-A、TRP-B、TRP-C以及TRP-D所关联的A-PRS资源集是否被触发,TRP-A对应的bitmap#a包括三个比特,分别为比特A、比特B以及比特C,每个比特用于指示TRP-A的一个A-PRS资源集是否被触发。比特位图中的一个比特用于指示一个A-PRS资源集的方式,可使得A-PRS指示信息中的指示精细。
在又一种实现方式中,如图4b所示,多个指示中,一个指示占用一个比特,一个比特用于指示该指示对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集是否被触发。示例性的,如图5b所示,A-PRS指示信息包括三个比特,分别用于指示TRP-A、TRP-B以及TRP-C每个TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集是否被触发,比如,TRP-A所关联的A-PRS资源集包括A-PRS资源集A、A-PRS资源集B以及A-PRS资源集C,比特A用于指示TRP-A所关联的A-PRS资源集A、A-PRS资源集B以及A-PRS资源集C是否被触发。一个比特指示一个TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集是否被触发的方式可节约资源开销。
在一种实现方式中,用户设备接收非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息之前,还可以获取多个A-PRS资源集的配置信息,配置信息用于指示各A-PRS资源集中的各A-PRS资源的时频资源。
S202:用户设备根据A-PRS指示信息,确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集。
用户设备通过确定A-PRS指示信息中的各比特的值,确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集。
在一种实现方式中,一个指示包括多个比特,当一个比特的值为1时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发,当一个比特的值为0时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集未被触发,该A-PRS资源集为该比特对应的TRP的一个A-PRS资源集。当一个A-PRS资源集被触发时,意味着用户设备可在该A-PRS资源集的资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS测量结果。在此,对比特指示的一个A-PRS资源集被触发时所对应的比特值不做限定。比如,当一个比特的值为0时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发,当一个比特的值为1时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集未被触发。
以一个比特的值为1时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发为例,在图5a中,若比特A指示的A-PRS资源集为A-PRS资源集A,当比特A的值为1时,用户设备确定A-PRS资源集A被触发,该A-PRS资源集A为比特A指示的TRP-A中的一个A-PRS资源集。
在一种实现方式中,一个指示占用一个比特,当一个比特的值为1时,与该比特对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集被触发,当一个比特的值为0时,该比特对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集未被触发。当一个TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集被触发时,意味着用户设备可在该TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集的资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS测量结果。在此,对比特指示的一个A-PRS资源集被触发时所对应的比特值不做限定。比如,当一个比特的值为0时,该比特对应的TRP的全部A-PRS资源集被触发,当一个比特的值为1时,该比特对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集未被触发。
以一个比特的值为1时,与该比特对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源 集被触发为例,在图5b中,比特A对应的TRP为TRP-A,TRP-A所关联的A-PRS资源集包括A-PRS资源集A、A-PRS资源集B以及A-PRS资源集C,当比特A的值为1时,A-PRS资源集A、A-PRS资源集B以及A-PRS资源集C都被触发。
S203:用户设备在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS测量结果。
用户设备根据A-PRS指示信息确定的每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集,在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS的测量结果,PRS的测量结果为用户设备对A-PRS中的A-PRA资源进行接收时得到的RSTD。
在一种实现方式中,用户设备获得了多个A-PRS资源集的配置信息,配置信息中包括了用于指示各A-PRS资源集中的各A-PRS资源的时频资源。因此,用户设备根据配置信息中指示每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集的各A-PRS资源的时频资源,在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS测量结果。
在一种实现方式中,用户设备在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS的测量结果之后,用户设备还可以根据各个PRS的测量结果的质量好坏,将多个PRS的测量结果中的至少两个PRS测量结果上报给网络设备,至少两个PRS的测量结果用于估计UE的位置坐标。其中,PRS的测量结果的质量好坏是根据A-PRS资源的好坏决定的,比如,用户设备接收的多个A-PRS资源中的第一A-PRS资源的信噪比较大,则用户设备接收到的第一A-PRS的测量结果的质量差,不将该第一A-PRS的测量结果上报给网络设备,直接丢弃该第一A-PRS的测量结果。
在本申请实施例中,用户设备根据接收的A-PRS指示信息,确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集,并在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收,以获得接收的各PRS的测量结果。该方法使得用户设备可在该用户设备移动且P-PRS资源未到达时,触发接收A-PRS资源,从而提高基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度和降低定位时延。
以上实施例为从用户设备侧触发,体现用户设备可根据A-PRS指示信息 确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集,并在被触发的A-PRS资源集的A-PRS资源上进行接收,获得各PRS测量结果。下面从网络设备的角度详细描述A-PRS指示信息的配置,提出如图6所示的一种定位参考信号发送方法,该方法包括:S601-S602。
S601:网络设备确定非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息。
A-PRS指示信息请见上述所述,在此不再赘述。
在一种实现方式中,网络设备确定在多个指示中,一个指示以比特位图的方式分别指示一个TRP所关联的各A-PRS资源集是否被触发,且一个指示包括多个比特,一个比特用于指示一个A-PRS资源集是否被触发,该A-PRS资源集是该指示对应的TRP所关联的一个A-PRS资源集。A-PRS指示信息的结构示意图可参见上图4a所示。网络设备可确定一个比特的值为1时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发,确定一个比特的值为0时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发未被触发。可选的,网络设备也可确定一个比特的值为0时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发,确定一个比特的值为1时,该比特指示的A-PRS资源集被触发未被触发。该确定方法中,网络设备确定一个比特只指示该指示对应的TRP所关联的一个A-PRS资源集,可使得每个比特指示的资源集更精细,可实现网络设备向用户设备只发送一个TRP所关联的一部分A-PRS资源集。
在一种实现方式中,网络设备确定在多个指示中,一个指示占用一个比特,一个比特用于指示该指示对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集是否被触发。A-PRS指示信息的结构示意图可参见上图4b所示。网络设备通过一个比特的值确定该比特指示的所有A-PRS资源集是否被触发的方式可参见上述,不再赘述。该确定方法中,网络设备确定一个比特用于指示该指示对应的TRP所关联的全部A-PRS资源集,可节约资源开销。
网络设备确定非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息的方式,增加了A-PRS资源的配置,从而增强了PRS资源,可提高基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度和减少定位时延。
S602:网络设备将A-PRS指示信息和被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源发送至用户设备。
网络设备将A-PRS指示信息和被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源发送至UE,以使得UE获得接收的多个PRS测量结果。
A-PRS指示信息由DCI携带,网络设备在确定A-PRS指示信息时,会确定DCI中的每个指示对应的TRP。因此网络设备确定A-PRS指示信息中一个指示对应的A-PRS资源集被触发后,则该指示所对应的TRP将该指示对应的被触发的A-PRS资源集发送至用户设备。
在一种实现方式中,网络设备将A-PRS指示信息和被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源发送至用户设备UE之后,还可以接收UE发送的至少两个PRS的测量结果,至少两个PRS的测量结果用于估计UE的位置坐标。该方式使得网络设备可利用接收到的至少两个PRS测量结果估计UE的位置坐标,实现对UE的定位。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备确定了A-PRS指示信息,并将指示信息和被触发的A-PRS资源集发送至UE,使得UE可根据A-PRS指示信息在被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源上进行接收。因此,若UE移动且P-PRS资源的周期未到,则可根据A-PRS指示信息在被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源上进行接收,从而提高基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度和降低定位时延。
结合以上图2和图6的实施例,下面同时从用户设备和网络设备两个方面出发,提出如图7所示的一种定位参考信号交互方法,该方法包括:S701-S705。
S701:网络设备确定非周期定位参考信号A-PRS指示信息。
S702:网络设备将A-PRS指示信息和被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源发送至用户设备。
本申请实施例中的S701-S702具体可参见上述实施例中S601-S602的执行过程,本发明实施例不再赘述。
S703:用户设备根据A-PRS指示信息,确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集。
本申请实施例中的S703具体可参见上述实施例中S302的执行过程,本发明实施例不再赘述。
S704:用户设备在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进 行接收,以获得多个PRS测量结果。
用户设备根据确定的每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集,在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中各A-PRS资源上进行接收A-PRS资源。网络设备发送A-PRS资源集中个各A-PRS资源的资源和用户设备接收A-PRS资源集中个各A-PRS资源的资源会存在时延。
S705:用户设备将多个PRS的测量结果中的至少两个PRS测量结果上报给网络设备。
用户设备根据各个PRS的测量结果的质量好坏,将多个PRS的测量结果中的至少两个PRS测量结果上报给网络设备,至少两个PRS的测量结果用于估计UE的位置坐标。其中,PRS的测量结果的质量好坏是根据A-PRS资源的好坏决定的。比如A-PRS资源的信噪比越小,该A-PRS资源的质量越好,进而用户设备获得的该A-PRS资源对应的PRS测量结果的质量越好。
S706:网络设备根据至少两个PRS的测量结果,估计UE的位置坐标。
网络设备根据接收到的至少两个PRS的测量结果估计UE的位置坐标,实现对UE的定位。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备确定了A-PRS指示信息,并将A-PRS指示信息发送至了网络设备,因此用户设备接收A-PRS指示信息,并根据A-PRS指示信息确定每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集,在每个TRP被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源上进行接收,获得多个PRS测量结果,最后根据PRS测量结果的质量好坏,将至少两个PRS测量结果发送至网络设备,使得网络设备根据至少两个PRS测量结果估计UE的位置坐标。该方法中,网络设备确定了A-PRS指示信息,增强了A-PRS资源。UE根据A-PRS指示信息,在被触发的A-PRS资源集中的A-PRS资源上进行接收,获得了接收的各PRS测量结果,因此可提高基于PRS的OTDOA定位的定位精度。
