Description

一种监听方法及设备 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,特别涉及一种监听方法及设备。
背景技术
在通信系统中,网络设备可以通过物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)向终端设备发送下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI),DCI中可以包括用于调度终端设备在物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)中传输数据的上行调度信息,或者包括用于调度终端设备接收物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH)的下行调度信息等信息。PDCCH在多个控制信道元素(control channel element,CCE)中传输,PDCCH占用的CCE的个数可以称为PDCCH的聚合等级(aggregation level,AL),例如,PDCCH占用4个CCE,那么该PDCCH的聚合等级为4。
网络设备可以通过高层信令预先给终端设备配置每个DCI对应的PDCCH候选(candidate)集合,但不通知终端设备会在哪个或哪些PDCCH候选上发送DCI,但是终端设备根据网络设备发送的配置信息可以确定当前期待接收的DCI,所以终端设备可以根据配置信息对当前期待接收的DCI所对应的PDCCH候选集合中的PDCCH候选进行监听,通常把同一个AL对应的PDCCH候选的集合称为搜索空间(search space),而多个AL对应的搜索空间的总和称为搜索空间集合(search space set)。
由于监听的复杂度较大且会消耗大量的功耗,终端设备在监听PDCCH候选之前,要确定监听PDCCH候选的监听次数。由于组成不同搜索空间的PDCCH候选可能会互相重叠,现有协议中规定了一次盲检测(blind detection,BD)次数的计算规则(俗称做BD count one操作)或算作1个需要监听的PDCCH候选,即对于互相重叠的至少两个PDCCH候选,如果它们占用的时频资源完全相同、且对应于这两个PDCCH候选的DCI的信息比特数相同,则对于这至少两个PDCCH候选的监听可以只进行一次,不需要分别进行。
现有技术中,为了提高PDCCH的接收性能,网络设备可以采用PDCCH重复技术发送同一个DCI,例如,可以从不同时间、不同频率或者通过不同波束来多次发送同一个DCI,从而获取分集增益和/或合并增益。然而,上述BD count one操作对应的条件是在无PDCCH重复的架构下规定的,针对PDCCH重复的架构,目前尚无对应的BD count one规则。
发明内容
本申请提供一种监听方法及设备,有助于在应用PDCCH重复技术的架构中提供对应的BD count one规则,以降低监听PDCCH候选的复杂度的问题。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种监听方法,该方法可以应用于终端设备;其中,所述终端设备具备采用至少两个物理下行控制信道PDCCH候选接收同一个下行控制信息DCI的功能。
该方法可以包括:接收来自网络设备的第一信息;所述第一信息包括M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,所述M个PDCCH候选用于监听所述PDCCH,M为大于0的整数;根据 所述M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,将所述M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合;其中,所述N个候选集合中的第一候选集合中包括至少一个第一PDCCH候选,所述至少一个第一PDCCH候选对应同一次监听,所述第一候选集合为所述N个候选集合中的任一个,N为大于0的整数,且N小于或等于M;根据所述N个候选集合中的每个候选集合进行一次监听。
通过该方案,在应用PDCCH重复技术的架构中,终端设备可以根据来自网络设备的关于M个PDCCH候选的配置信息将该M个PDCCH候选进行划分,将对应于同一次监听的至少一个PDCCH候选划分至同一个PDCCH候选集合,并根据每个PDCCH候选集合进行一次监听,从而降低终端设备监听PDCCH的开销,提高监听效率。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,“监听”是指监听PDCCH候选。由于网络设备只给终端设备配置每个DCI对应的PDCCH候选集合,但不通知终端设备会在哪个或哪些PDCCH候选上发送DCI,并不是每个PDCCH候选上都会承载DCI,终端设备需要在每个PDCCH候选上尝试译码,以接收对应的DCI,即监听PDCCH候选。BD count one操作即确定至少两个PDCCH候选对应同一次监听的操作,或者说,将至少两个PDCCH候选算作1个需要监听的PDCCH候选的操作,N也可以称为监听M个PDCCH候选的最大次数。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选满足第一预设条件;其中,所述第一预设条件用于指示两个PDCCH候选对应同一次监听时应满足的条件。示例的,所述第一预设条件包括以下内容:所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;所述终端设备在所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同;或者,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同、且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
通过该方案,终端设备可以根据第一预设条件,并结合所述M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,确定M个PDCCH候选中能够只进行一次监听的若干个PDCCH候选并划分至同一候选集合,从而降低终端设备监听PDCCH候选的开销,提高监听效率。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述配置信息用于指示所述M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选序列,任一个PDCCH候选序列中包括K个PDCCH候选,K为大于或等于2的整数、且K小于M;所述终端设备具备采用属于同一个PDCCH候选序列的K个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能;其中,所述第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选分别属于两个PDCCH候选序列、且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选满足第二预设条件;其中,所述第二预设条件用于指示两个PDCCH候选分别属于两个PDCCH候选序列、且对应同一次监听时应满足的条件。
通过该方案,网络设备在为终端设备配置PDCCH候选集合时,可以配置PDCCH候选序列,并通过PDCCH候选序列中的K个PDCCH候选上K次重复发送同一DCI,从而获取分集增益和/或合并增益。相应地,终端设备则可以结合PDCCH候选所属PDCCH候选序列的相关特性,来判断某些PDCCH候选是否对应同一次监听,从而将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合。
示例的,所述第二预设条件包括:所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中的任一个第一PDCCH候选为所述第一PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列中的第j个PDCCH候选,1 <j<=K,且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选分别所属的两个PDCCH候选序列各自包括的第i个PDCCH候选对应满足第三预设条件,i<=j;其中,所述第三预设条件包括以下内容:所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;所述终端设备在所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同,和/或,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
通过该方案,在应用PDCCH重复的架构中,终端设备在对M个PDCCH候选进行BD count one操作时,基于第二预设条件以及网络设备配置的PDCCH候选序列的相关配置信息,来判断某些PDCCH候选是否对应同一次监听,从而将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合。
示例的,任一个PDCCH候选序列中包括的K个PDCCH候选的CORESET的标识相同;或者,任一个PDCCH候选序列中包括的K个PDCCH候选中至少两个PDCCH候选的CORESET的标识不同。
通过该方案,任一个PDCCH候选序列中的任意两个PDCCH候选的CORESET的标识可以相同也可以不同,即并不限定所配置的PDCCH候选序列中的各个PDCCH候选是否具有相同CORESET的标识。
在一种可能的实现方式中,根据所述M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,将所述M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合,包括:根据所述配置信息,确定所述M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选类型;其中,任一个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型用于指示所述PDCCH候选为不译码候选、独立译码候选、联合译码候选中的至少一种;根据所述M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选类型,将所述M个PDCCH候选划分为所述N个候选集合。
示例的,所述第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选均为独立译码候选;或者,所述第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选均为联合译码候选。
通过该方案,通过确定任一个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型,并结合PDCCH候选类型实现对M个PDCCH候选的划分,有助于在应用PDCCH重复的架构中,将具有相同PDCCH候选类型的PDCCH候选划分至同一PDCCH候选集合。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例提供了一种监听方法、设备及系统,有助于在应用PDCCH重复技术的架构中提供对应的BD count one规则,以降低监听PDCCH候选的复杂度的问题。其中,方法和设备是基于同一技术构思的,由于方法及设备解决问题的原理相似,因此设备与方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
以下,对本申请中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
(1)下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI):1个DCI对应1个PDCCH信道,或者说1个PDCCH上传输(承载)的内容就叫做DCI。示例性的,网络设备发给终端设备的下行控制信息,可以包括上下行资源调度信息(包括资源分配信息、混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)信息等)、功率控制信息、时隙格式信息等。
本申请实施例中,1个PDCCH由一个或者几个控制信道元素(control channel element,CCE)组成,CCE在系统范围内做交织,进行干扰随机化。其中,1CCE=6资源单元组(resource element group,REG);1REG=12资源单元(resource element,RE);1CCE=72RE。
(2)聚合等级(aggregation level,AL):1个PDCCH包含的CCE数量就叫做这个PDCCH的聚合等级,也可以称为CCE聚合等级,例如1CCE、2CCE、4CCE或8CCE等。由于不同的PDCCH可以使用不同的CCE聚合等级,也就是包含不同数量的RE,因此,聚合等级也说明了PDCCH信道占用的物理资源数量。在传输相同控制信息的情况下,PDCCH对应的CCE个数越多,传输性能就越好。本申请实施例中,聚合等级也可以称为聚合级别。
网络设备可以配置至少一个聚合等级来组成PDCCH,以支持不同DCI格式在不同信道带宽和信道环境下提高资源利用率。其中,DCI和PDCCH的聚合等级大小关系可以反映编码效率,DCI格式一定的前提下,编码效率(码率=码元/码长)越低,说明增加冗余越多码长越长,编码鲁棒性越好,则需要高聚合等级的资源来组成PDCCH,适合无线信道环境差的用户;如果用户的无线信道环境很好,则采用高码率和低聚合等级可以节约资源,提高资源利用率。
(3)PDCCH候选(candidate):标准协议规定或者网络侧配置每一个聚合等级下的PDCCH候选的个数,根据PDCCH候选的聚合等级和对应的个数可以得到每个PDCCH候 选的时频资源位置,也就是PDCCH可能出现的时频资源位置。
以用户专用搜索空间为例,采取递增的方式,如CCE聚合等级选取为1时,在用户专用搜索空间的起始位置读取1个CCE,这1个CCE就是一个PDCCH candidate,用户将读取的数据进行解速率匹配、译码,然后再将得到数据进行RNTI解扰和CRC校验,如果CRC校验成功,用户才知道这个PDCCH是自己需要的,则进一步解出DCI的内容。本申请实施例中,PDCCH候选也可以称为备选PDCCH。
(4)控制资源集合(control resource set,CORESET):新无线(new radio,NR)中新提出的概念,可以理解为一个时频资源集合。其中,在时域上,1个CORESET可以被配置为1个或连续几个OFDM符号;在频域上,1个CORESET可以是一组连续或非连续的频域资源。
本申请实施例中,1个CORESET可以通过高层信令配置,1个CORESET的配置信息中可以包括但不限于以下特性:CORESET的ID索引、DMRS加扰序列初始化值、CORESET的持续时间、CORESET频域资源bitmap、CCE到REG的映射类型(包括非交织映射non-interleaved CCE-to-REG mapping和交织映射interleaved CCE-to-REG mapping)、REG bundle大小、REG bundle交织器的循环移位值、与天线端口的QCL关系、DCI中TCI域是否存在的指示。
(5)搜索空间(search space):用于监听某种格式的DCI的一组PDCCH candidate的集合。其中,每个搜索空间中的PDCCH candidate的总数可以通过该搜索空间的聚合等级以及每种聚合等级下PDCCH candidate的个数计算出来。用户会监听(监听=尝试监听)PDCCH candidate集合,这个集合就叫做搜索空间。
通常把同一个聚合等级对应的PDCCH candidate的集合称为搜索空间(search space),多个聚合等级对应的搜索空间的总和称为搜索空间集合(search space set),用于检测公共控制信息的搜索空间称为公共搜索空间(common search space,CSS),用于检测用户专用控制信息的搜索空间称为用户专用搜索空间(UE-specific search space,USS)。
本申请实施例中,1个CORESET可以包含不同聚合等级下的搜索空间,如图1所示,以斜条纹填充的块表示组成CSS的CCE,以竖条纹填充的块表示组成USS的CCE,以编号0-39依次标识各个CCE。在1个CORESET内给定的1个聚合等级对应的PDCCH candidate集合组成1个搜索空间,例如AL=1时的CCE-22至CCE-27,或者,AL=2时的CCE-6至CCE-15,或者,AL=4时的CCE-28-至CCE-35,或者,AL=4时的CCE-16-至CCE-31。在1个CORESET内给定的多个聚合等级对应的PDCCH candidate集合组成搜索空间集合,例如,AL=1时的CCE-22至CCE-27、AL=2时的CCE-6至CCE-15、AL=4时的CCE-28-至CCE-35、和AL=4时的CCE-16-至CCE-31。
(6)、盲检测(blind detection,BD):终端设备在不确定网络设备采用哪个PDCCH候选下发DCI的情况下,通过监听一组PDCCH候选进行盲检测以接收对应的DCI的技术。
根据不同的用途和内容,DCI被分为很多种格式(format),例如接入标识RA-RNTI、寻呼标识P-RNTI等,不同用户的PDCCH信息通过其对应的C-RNTI信息进行区分,即DCI的CRC由C-RNTI加掩。网络设备可以通过高层信令(例如RRC信令)给终端设备配置需要监听DCI的PDCCH候选集合,由于终端设备事先并不知道网络设备会在哪个或哪些PDCCH candidate上接收到DCI,但是终端设备根据网络设备的配置信息知道自身当前期待接收哪些下行控制信息以及这些下行控制信息分别对应的搜索空间集合,因此终端 设备必须根据配置信息对PDCCH candidate集合中的每一个PDCCH候选尝试解码,即终端设备采用相应的RNTI对PDCCH candidate上的信息做CRC校验,如果CRC校验成功,那么终端设备就知道这个成功解到了这个DCI信息,终端设备监听多个PDCCH候选并尝试在每个PDCCH候选解码来确定是否接收到对应DCI的行为就叫盲检测。
(7)BD count one操作:使至少两个PDCCH candidate的监听只进行一次,而不需要分别进行的技术。
本申请实施例中,一个搜索空间集合由多个PDCCH candidate组成,不同的PDCCH candidate可能会互相重叠。网络设备可以同时为终端设备配置多个搜索空间,用于检测不同格式的DCI或者是承载不同控制信息的DCI,这些搜索空间之间可以不重叠、部分或完全重叠,也就是说,组成不同搜索空间的PDCCH候选可能会互相重叠。对于互相重叠的两个PDCCH candidate,如果它们占用的时频资源完全相同,且对应于这两个PDCCH candidate的DCI的信息比特数相同,则对于这两个PDCCH candidate的监听可以只进行一次,不需要分别进行,即BD count one操作。
协议38.214-f40版本规定了1次盲检测次数的计算规则(俗称做BD count one操作)或算作1个需要监听的PDCCH candidate,两个PDCCH candidate需要同时满足下面4个条件:相同的CCE(即相同的聚合等级以及相同的起始CCE位置)、相同的扰码序列、相同的CORESET、相同的DCI大小。
(8)传输配置指示状态(transmission configuration indicator state,TCI state):在NR系统中,每个PDCCH候选都有对应的TCI state,通过TCI state信息,每个PDCCH候选会与一个信道状态信息-参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)或者同步信号/物理广播信道块(synchronisation signal/physical broadcast channel block,SSB)关联。其中,在一个PDCCH候选多次重复的场景下,则一个PDCCH候选的多次重复可以各自对应一个TCI state。
本申请实施例中,关联关系包括以下四种:
a)、'QCL-TypeA':{多普勒频移(doppler shift),多普勒扩展(doppler spread),平均延迟(average delay),延迟扩展(delay spread)};
b)、'QCL-TypeB':{Doppler shift,Doppler spread};
c)、'QCL-TypeC':{Doppler shift,average delay};
d)、'QCL-TypeD':{空间接收参数(Spatial Rx parameter)}。
其中QCL-TypeA、QCL-TypeB、QCL-TypeC是对应于无线信道的大尺度衰落,用于辅助信道估计,如果PDCCH与某个CSI-RS或SSB关联,则表示该PDCCH经历的大尺度衰落与这个CSI-RS或SSB是相同的,可以利用CSI-RS或SSB来估计得到大尺度衰落相关的参数,用于PDCCH的信道估计。QCL-TypeD是波束相关的信息,表示PDCCH和某个CSI或SSB的接收波束方向相同。
网络设备会通过RRC参数给PDCCH候选配置TCI state。其中,若配置了一个TCI state,可以直接使用;若配置了两个或两个以上TCI state,可以用MAC信令激活其中的一个TCI state,使用该激活的TCI state;若未配置TCI state,则该PDCCH候选与终端设备初始接入时接收的SSB相关联。
(9)PDCCH重复(repetition):采用至少两个PDCCH候选传输同一个DCI的功能。
本申请实施例中,在网络设备侧,PDCCH的重复发送有多种方式,可以从不同时间、 不同频率或者通过不同波束来多次发送同一个DCI,从而获取分集增益和/或合并增益。另外,也可以通过多个发送站点来同时给一个终端设备发送同一个PDCCH,也就是相当于用不同波束多次发送同一个DCI,这里的多个发送站点可以称为M-TRP。
(10)多个,是指两个或两个以上。
(11)至少一个,是指一个或多个。
(12)“和/或”,描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
另外,需要理解的是,在本申请的描述中,“第一”、“第二”等词汇,仅用于区分描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性,也不能理解为指示或暗示顺序。

需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,网络设备和/或终端设备为具备采用至少两个PDCCH候选传输同一个DCI功能的设备,或为具备采用属于同一个PDCCH候选序列的K个PDCCH候选传输同一个DCI的功能的设备,K为大于或等于2的整数。在下文中将结合实施例进行详细描述,在此暂不赘述。
图3为本申请实施例提供的一种监听方法的流程示意图。参阅图3,该方法可以包括以下步骤:
S310:网络设备发送第一信息。
本申请实施例中,网络设备例如可以通过高层信令配置以获得该第一信息。该第一信息中可以包括M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,该M个PDCCH候选可以用于监听PDCCH,M为大于0的整数。
在一种实现方式中,任一个PDCCH候选的配置信息中例如可以包括CORESET配置信息、搜索空间集合配置信息等,以指示PDCCH可能出现的时频资源位置。其中,CORESET配置信息可以用于指示PDCCH候选所对应的CORESET,搜索空间集合配置信息可以用于指示PDCCH候选所对应的搜索空间集合。需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,M个PDCCH候选可以来自同一个搜索空间集合,也可以分别来自同一个CORESET的不同搜索空间集合,也可以是来自不同CORESET的不同搜索空间集合,M个PDCCH候选的聚合等级可以相同也可以不同,本申请对此不做限定。
示例性地,任一个PDCCH候选的配置信息,可以包括以下信息:
(1)CORESET配置信息,包括:CORESET标识、CORESET频域位置、CORESET占用的OFFM符号个数、CCE-REG映射信息、预编码粒度、TCI信息、扰码标识等;
(2)搜索空间集合配置信息,包括:搜索空间标识、关联的CORESET标识、监听周期、监听时域位置、PDCCH候选聚合等级及对应的个数、DCI格式等。
S320:终端设备接收来自网络设备的第一信息,并根据所述M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,将所述M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合。
本申请实施例中,在应用PDCCH重复技术的架构中,网络设备配置的M个PDCCH候选可能来自于不同的搜索空间集合,由于一个搜索空间集合可以由多个PDCCH候选组成,而不同的PDCCH候选可能会互相重叠,因此,为了降低监听PDCCH候选的复杂度以及功耗,终端设备在监听PDCCH候选之前,可以确定监听PDCCH候选的监听次数。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,每个候选集合对应同一次监听,将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合,即为确定在M个PDCCH候选上进行监听的监听次数,N为大于 0的整数,且N小于或等于M。其中,为便于区分,以第一候选集合表示N个候选集合中的任一个候选集合,以第一PDCCH候选表示第一候选集合中的任一个PDCCH候选,通过划分,任一个第一候选集合中可以包括至少一个第一PDCCH候选,该至少一个第一PDCCH候选对应同一次监听,而属于不同第一候选集合的第一PDCCH候选则对应不同次监听。下文中将结合附图及实施例对S420中将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合的具体实现进行详细描述,在此暂不赘述。
S330:网络设备发送DCI。
示例性地,网络设备可以通过PDCCH向终端设备发送DCI,DCI中例如可以包括上下行资源调度信息(包括资源分配信息、HARQ信息等)、功率控制信息、时隙格式信息等,用于对网络设备与终端设备之间的通信进行相关控制和调度。
S340:终端设备根据所述N个候选集合中的每个候选集合进行一次监听。
本申请实施例中,终端设备针对N个候选集合分别进行一次监听,以检测来自网络设备的DCI。在对该DCI解扰和CRC校验成功后,即可根据从检测到的DCI中获得的内容进行下一步动作,例如,发送上行数据、接收下行数据、确定上行功率控制动作、确定动态TDD配置等。之后,网络设备即可根据之前下发的DCI进行对应的动作,例如,接收上行数据、发送下行数据等,在此不再赘述。
下面,结合实施例,对图3所示S320的具体实现进行详细描述。
本申请实施例中,可以预先设置相关预设条件,终端设备具备采用至少两个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能时,可以根据M个PDCCH候选的配置信息以及该相关预设条件,将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合,各个候选集合分别对应一次监听。终端设备具备采用属于同一个PDCCH候选序列的K个PDCCH候选传输同一个DCI的功能时,还可以结合PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列的相关特性,实现对PDCCH候选的划分。下面针对不同的情形示例说明该划分方案的具体实现的相关细节。
示例一:
本申请实施例中,该终端设备具备采用至少两个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能。
该相关预设条件可以包括第一预设条件,该第一预设条件用于指示两个PDCCH候选对应同一次监听时应满足的条件。该第一预设条件例如可以包括以下内容:
所述两个PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;
所述两个PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;
终端设备在所述两个PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;
所述两个PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同;或者,所述两个PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同、且所述两个PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
S420中,终端设备可以根据M个PDCCH候选的配置信息、以及该第一预设条件,遍历该M个PDCCH候选,以将该M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选进行比较,根据该任意两个PDCCH候选是否满足该第一预设条件,来判断该任意两个PDCCH候选是否对应同一次监听,即是否属于同一PDCCH候选集合。
示例性地,针对第m个PDCCH候选,m=1,2,……,M,终端设备在遍历时,可以根据第m个PDCCH候选与第m+1个PDCCH候选各自的配置信息,将该第m个PDCCH候选与第m+1个PDCCH候选进行比较。
若两者满足该第一预设条件,终端设备确定该第m个PDCCH候选与第m+1个PDCCH候选可以只进行一次监听,则将两者划分至同一候选集合。
若两者不满足该第一预设条件,则终端设备确定该第m个PDCCH候选与第m+1个PDCCH候选需要进行两次监听,即两者分别属于不同的候选集合。
之后,终端设备根据与上述相同的方式继续遍历,以将该第m个PDCCH候选逐一与第m+2个、m+3个,……,第M个PDCCH候选进行比较,直至确定该M个PDCCH候选中与该第m个PDCCH候选属于同一PDCCH候选集合的其它PDCCH候选。
在最终得到的N个候选集合中,任一个第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选满足上述第一预设条件。即,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;所述终端设备在所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同;或者,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同、且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
需要说明的是,上述仅是对本申请实施例中终端设备将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合的示例说明而非任何限定。在具体实现中,终端设备可以逐一针对各个PDCCH候选进行遍历,也可以同时针对各个PDCCH候选进行遍历,本申请对此具体实现不做限定。可以理解的是,若该M个PDCCH候选中,不存在与第m个PDCCH候选满足上述第一预设条件的其它PDCCH候选,则该第m个PDCCH候选自身组成一个候选集合并对应一次监听。
示例二:
本申请实施例中,该终端设备具备采用属于同一个PDCCH候选序列的K个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能。网络设备在进行配置时,可以配置至少一个PDCCH候选序列。配置信息用于指示所述M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选序列,任一个PDCCH候选序列中可以包括K个PDCCH候选,K为大于或等于2的整数、且K小于M。任一个PDCCH候选的配置信息可以用于指示该PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列。
该相关预设条件可以包括第二预设条件和第三预设条件。
第二预设条件用于指示两个PDCCH候选分别属于两个PDCCH候选序列、且对应同一次监听时应满足的条件。
该第二预设条件例如可以包括:所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中的任一个第一PDCCH候选为所述第一PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列中的第j个PDCCH候选,1<j<=K,且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选分别所属的两个PDCCH候选序列各自包括的第i个PDCCH候选对应满足第三预设条件,i<=j。
该第三预设条件例如可以包括以下内容:
所述两个PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;
所述两个PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;
所述终端设备在所述两个PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;
所述两个PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同,和/或,所述两个PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
S320中,终端设备可以根据M个PDCCH候选的配置信息、以及该第二预设条件、 第三预设条件,遍历该M个PDCCH候选,以将该M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选进行比较,根据该任意两个PDCCH候选是否满足该第二预设条件,来判断该任意两个PDCCH候选是否对应同一次监听,即是否属于同一PDCCH候选集合。
以K=2为例,PDCCH候选序列也可以称为PDCCH候选对。
对于两个PDCCH候选序列X和Y,PDCCH候选序列X例如表示为{PDCCH候选X_1,PDCCH候选X_2},PDCCH候选序列Y例如表示为{PDCCH候选Y_1,PDCCH候选Y_2}。
终端设备在根据第二预设条件针对PDCCH候选X_1进行遍历时,可以包括以下情形:
a)、若与该PDCCH候选X_1进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选X_2,由于两者属于同一PDCCH候选序列,则这两个PDCCH候选不做比较。
b)、若与该PDCCH候选X_1进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选Y_2,由于PDCCH候选X_1在PDCCH候选序列X中的位置,与PDCCH候选Y_2在PDCCH候选序列Y中的位置不对应,则这两个PDCCH候选不做比较。
c)、若与该PDCCH候选X_1进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选Y_1,由于该PDCCH候选X_1与该PDCCH候选Y_1属于两个PDCCH候选序列、且分别是所属PDCCH候选序列中的第i=1个PDCCH候选,则终端设备根据该PDCCH候选X_1与该PDCCH候选Y_1各自的配置信息、以及第三预设条件,将两PDCCH候选进行比较。
若两者满足第三预设条件,则终端设备确定该PDCCH候选X_1与该PDCCH候选Y_1可以只进行一次监听,将两者划分至同一候选集合。
若两者不满足该第三预设条件,则终端设备确定该PDCCH候选X_1与该PDCCH候选Y_1需要进行两次监听,即两者分别属于不同的候选集合。
之后,终端设备根据与上述相同的方式继续遍历,以将该PDCCH候选X_1与其它PDCCH候选进行比较,直至确定出该M个PDCCH候选中与该PDCCH候选X_1属于同一PDCCH候选集合的其它PDCCH候选。
终端设备在根据第二预设条件针对PDCCH候选X_2进行遍历时,可以包括以下情形:
a)、若与该PDCCH候选X_2进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选X_1,由于两者属于同一PDCCH候选序列,则这两个PDCCH候选不做比较。
b)、若与该PDCCH候选X_2进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选Y_1,由于PDCCH候选X_2在PDCCH候选序列X中的位置,与PDCCH候选Y_1在PDCCH候选序列Y中的位置不对应,则这两个PDCCH候选不做比较。
c)、若与该PDCCH候选X_2进行比较的另一个PDCCH候选为PDCCH候选Y_2,由于该PDCCH候选X_2与该PDCCH候选Y_2属于两个PDCCH候选序列且是所属PDCCH候选序列中的第i=2个PDCCH候选,则终端设备根据PDCCH候选序列X中的PDCCH候选、与PDCCH候选序列Y中的PDCCH候选各自的配置信息、以及第三预设条件,将两PDCCH候选序列中分别包括的前i个PDCCH候选对应进行比较。
若PDCCH候选X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1对应满足第三预设条件、且PDCCH候选X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2对应满足第三预设条件,则终端设备确定该PDCCH候选X_2与该PDCCH候选Y_2可以只进行一次监听,将两者划分至同一候选集合。
若PDCCH候选X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1不满足该第一预设条件,或者,PDCCH候选X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2不满足该第一预设条件,或者,PDCCH候选X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1不满足该第一预设条件、且PDCCH候选X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2不满足该第一 预设条件,则终端设备确定该PDCCH候选X_2与该PDCCH候选Y_2需要进行两次监听,即两者分别属于不同的候选集合。
之后,终端设备根据与上述相同的方式继续遍历,以将该PDCCH候选X_2与其它PDCCH候选进行比较,直至确定出该M个PDCCH候选中与该PDCCH候选X_2属于同一PDCCH候选集合的其它PDCCH候选。
在最终得到的N个候选集合中,任一个第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选满足上述第二预设条件。即,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中的任一个第一PDCCH候选为所述第一PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列中的第j个PDCCH候选,1<j<=K,且所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选分别所属的两个PDCCH候选序列各自包括的第i个PDCCH候选对应满足第三预设条件,i<=j;其中,所述第三预设条件包括以下内容:所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选对应的控制信道元素CCE集合相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的扰码序列相同;所述终端设备在所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选中监听的下行控制信息DCI长度相同;所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选来自的控制资源集合CORESET的标识相同,和/或,所述任意两个第一PDCCH候选的传输配置指示TCI状态相同。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,不同PDCCH候选序列中对应位置的两个PDCCH候选也可能是同一个PDCCH候选,此时,这两个PDCCH候选无需比较是否满足第三预设条件。例如:
1)PDCCH候选X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1对应同一个PDCCH候选,PDCCH X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2对应不同的PDCCH候选。此时PDCCH候选X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1必然满足上述第三预设条件,在判断PDCCH X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2是否满足第二预设条件时,只需要判断PDCCH X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2是否满足第三预设条件即可。
2)PDCCH候选X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2对应同一个PDCCH候选,PDCCH X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1对应不同的PDCCH候选。此时PDCCH候选X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2必然满足上述第三预设条件,在判断PDCCH X_2与PDCCH候选Y_2是否满足第二预设条件时,只需要判断PDCCH X_1与PDCCH候选Y_1是否满足第三预设条件即可。
需要说明的是,若网络设备配置的至少一个PDCCH候选序列中,存在两个PDCCH候选序列中包含的PDCCH候选数量不相同的情形,例如,PDCCH候选序列X中包括2个PDCCH候选、PDCCH候选序列Y中包括3个PDCCH候选,则这两个PDCCH候选序列中分别包括的PDCCH候选不做比较。即,只在任意两个PDCCH候选分别属于两个PDCCH候选序列、且所述两个PDCCH候选序列中包括的PDCCH候选的数量相同时,将所述两个PDCCH候选序列中各自包括的第i个PDCCH候选进行比较。
可以理解的是,上述仅是以K=2为例,对分别属于两个PDCCH候选序列的PDCCH候选进行BD count one操作的示例说明而非任何限定。当K>2时,若待比较的任意两个PDCCH候选中的任一个PDCCH候选,为该PDCCH候选所属的PDCCH候选序列中的第j个PDCCH候选,则在两个PDCCH候选序列中各自包括的第i个PDCCH候选对应满足第三预设条件时,确定该任意两个PDCCH候选可以只进行一次监听,否则需要进行两次监听,其中,i、j为大于0的整数,1<j<=K,i<=j。
此外,网络设备在进行配置时,针对任一个PDCCH候选序列中包括的K个PDCCH候选,各个PDCCH候选CORESET的标识可以相同也可以不同,不同PDCCH候选序列中对应位置的PDCCH候选的CORESET的标识必须相同。例如,PDCCH candidate X_1 与PDCCH candidate X_2的CORESET的标识可以相同也可以不同,PDCCH candidate X_1与PDCCH candidate Y_1的CORESET的标识必须相同。
示例三:
本申请实施例中,终端设备可以具备采用至少两个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能,以及具备采用属于同一个PDCCH候选序列的K个PDCCH候选接收同一个DCI的功能。任一个PDCCH候选可以具有PDCCH候选类型,该PDCCH候选类型为PDCCH候选的接收译码类型,可以包括不译码候选、独立译码候选、联合译码候选中的至少一种。
网络设备与终端设备之间可以约定PDCCH候选的接收策略。
对于未互相重叠的PDCCH候选,终端设备在接收时可以针对相应的PDCCH候选直接进行接收和独立译码。此种情况下,若M个PDCCH候选均为独立译码候选,则将每个PDCCH候选作为相互独立(即不相关)的个体,并参见前文结合示例一的相关描述,将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个PDCCH候选集合。
对于多个重复的PDCCH候选,根据相应的接收策略,则可以针对单个PDCCH候选进行独立译码,也可以针对多个重复传输的PDCCH候选进行联合译码(即先合并再译码)。在应用PDCCH重复技术的架构中,终端设备在接收PDCCH序列时,对于PDCCH候选序列中包括的各个PDCCH候选的接收策略可以有多种,则可以包括:针对单个PDCCH候选不译码,也可以针对单个PDCCH候选进行独立译码,也可以针对至少两个PDCCH候选进行联合译码(即对多个进行重复传输的PDCCH候选的合并信息进行译码)。
以两次重复为例,假设终端设备针对两次重复的{PDCCH候选1,PDCCH候选2}序列进行接收,则接收方案可以包括以下内容:
接收方案1:只针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码。此时,对于PDCCH候选1则不译码,即在接收到PDCCH候选1后不译码而等到接收到PDCCH候选2后,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,译码正确即可。
接收方案2:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,只要两者中有一个译码正确即可。
接收方案3:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,只要两者有一个译码正确即可。
接收方案4,针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,只要三者有一个译码正确即可。
此种情况下,若M个PDCCH候选中的任一个,可能为不译码候选、独立译码候选和联合译码候选中的至少一种,则可以参见前文结合示例二的相关描述,将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个PDCCH候选集合。
在S320中,终端设备可以根据M个PDCCH候选的配置信息,确定该M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选类型。其中,任一个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型用于指示所述PDCCH候选为不译码候选、独立译码候选、联合译码候选中的至少一种。然后,终端设备根据M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选类型,将所述M个PDCCH候选划分为所述N个候选集合。
在此,针对任一个PDCCH候选,终端设备可以首先根据该PDCCH候选的配置信息, 确定该PDCCH候选是单个PDCCH候选,还是PDCCH候选序列中的一个PDCCH候选。
若该PDCCH候选是单个PDCCH候选,则其所属的PDCCH候选类型为独立译码候选。
若该PDCCH候选是PDCCH候选序列中的一个PDCCH候选,则可以结合该PDCCH候选序列对应的接收策略,来确定该PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型。
示例性地,K=2时,终端设备针对两次重复的{PDCCH候选1,PDCCH候选2}序列的接收策略包括前文述及的接收方案时,该{PDCCH候选1,PDCCH候选2}序列对应的PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型的判断方式如下所示:
接收方案1:只针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码。即,在接收到PDCCH候选1后不译码,而等到接收到PDCCH候选2后针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1为不译码候选,PDCCH候选2为联合译码候选。
接收方案2:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,只要两者中有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2均为独立译码候选。
接收方案3:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,只要两者有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1为独立译码候选,PDCCH候选2为联合译码候选。
接收方案4:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,只要三者有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1为独立译码候选,PDCCH候选2既是独立译码候选又是联合译码候选(在此种情况下,PDCCH候选2需要作为两个PDCCH候选来参与BD count one操作)。
示例性地,以K=3为例,终端设备针对三次重复的{PDCCH候选1,PDCCH候选2,PDCCH候选3}序列的接收策略、以及序列中对应的PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型的判断方式可以如下所示:
接收方案1:只针对PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3的合并信息进行接收译码。即,在接收到PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2后均不译码,而等到接收到PDCCH候选3后针对PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3的合并信息进行接收译码,译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2为不译码候选,PDCCH候选3为联合译码候选。
接收方案2:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选3进行接收译码,只要三者中有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3均为独立译码候选。
接收方案3:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选3进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3的合并信息进行接收译码,只要四者中有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1/PDCCH候选2/PDCCH候选3既是独立译码候选又是联合译码 候选(在此种情况下,PDCCH候选1/PDCCH候选2/PDCCH候选3需要作为两个PDCCH候选来参与BD count one操作)。
接收方案4:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选2进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选3进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3的合并信息进行接收译码,只要五者中有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1/PDCCH候选2/PDCCH候选3既是独立译码候选又是联合译码候选(在此种情况下,PDCCH候选1/PDCCH候选2/PDCCH候选3需要作为两个PDCCH候选来参与BD count one操作)。
接收方案5:针对PDCCH候选1进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1和PDCCH候选2的合并信息进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选3进行接收译码,针对PDCCH候选1、PDCCH候选2和PDCCH候选3的合并信息进行接收译码,只要三者中有一个译码正确即可。
此时,PDCCH候选1既是独立译码候选又是联合译码候选(在此种情况下,PDCCH候选1需要作为两个PDCCH候选来参与BD count one操作),PDCCH候选2、PDCCH候选3均为联合译码候选。
可以理解的是,上述仅以K=2、K=3为例,对结合PDCCH候选序列的接收策略确定该PDCCH候选序列中的各个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型的具体实现进行示例说明而非任何限定。当K>3时,终端设备对于PDCCH候选序列进行接收时,相应的接收策略可以包括更多的接收方案,仍可结合相应PDCCH候选序列的接收策略,确定该PDCCH候选序列中所包括的K个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型,在此不再赘述。
在基于上述方式确定M个PDCCH候选的PDCCH候选类型之后,则可以根据M个PDCCH候选分别所属的PDCCH候选类型,结合示例一或示例二的相关预设条件,对该M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选进行比较,以将该M个PDCCH候选划分为N个候选集合。
具体的,在S320中,若所述M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选均为独立译码候选、且满足第一预设条件,则所述任意两个PDCCH候选对应同一次监听,则将两者划分至同一候选集合。若所述M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选中,一个为独立译码,另一个为联合译码,则所述任意两个PDCCH候选对应不同次监听,则将两者划分至不同的PDCCH候选集合。若M个PDCCH候选中的任意两个PDCCH候选均为联合译码候选、且满足第二预设条件,则所述任意两个PDCCH候选对应同一次监听,则将两者划分至同一候选集合。
在最终得到的N个候选集合中,第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选均为独立译码候选;或者,第一候选集合中的任意两个第一PDCCH候选均为联合译码候选。
至此,已经基于上述示例一-示例三,示意性说明了本申请实施例中在不同的情形下,将M个PDCCH候选划分为N个PDCCH候选集合的具体实现。应理解,上述仅是对本申请实施例的实现方式的示意说明而非任何限定。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,不同PDCCH候选序列中对应位置的两个PDCCH候选也可能是同一个PDCCH候选,此时,这两个PDCCH候选无需比较是否满足第三预设条件,具体可参见上文结合示例二的相关描述,在此不再赘述。
