Description

资源可用性确定方法、资源配置方法、通信节点及存储介质 技术领域
本申请涉及无线通信网络领域,例如涉及一种资源可用性确定方法、资源配置方法、通信节点及存储介质。
背景技术
集成接入和回程(Integrated Access and Backhaul,IAB)可以支持多跳网络,IAB节点有两个功能:分布式单元(Distributed Unit,DU)功能(即基站),即IAB节点像基站一样为子节点或者终端(User Equipment,UE)提供无线接入功能;2)移动终端(Mobile-Termination,MT)功能(即终端),即IAB节点像UE一样被父节点(IAB节点或者施主IAB)控制和调度。版本-16(Rel-16)IAB主要研究了IAB节点MT和DU之间(或者IAB节点的父链路和子链路之间)时分复用的场景,并且给出了IAB节点DU确定时域资源可用性的方法,对于IAB节点MT和DU通过频分复用或空分复用实现同时操作的场景,仅仅支持能力上报,并未给出频域资源的划分方案,即如果IAB节点DU确定一个时域符号是可用的,则认为该符号对应的所有频域资源是可用的,或者根据IAB节点的父节点对IAB节点MT的调度情况,确定可以使用哪些频域资源。Rel-17 IAB在Rel-16的基础上对频分复用和空分复用进行了增强,因此,如何对IAB节点MT和DU的资源在频域和空域上划分以及如何判断时频资源的可用性是亟需解决的问题。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请进行说明。此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用于解释本申请。为了便于描述,附图中仅示出了与本申请相关的部分。
与核心网存在直接连接(例如存在有线连接)的节点是施主IAB(IAB Donor),它由一个集中式单元(Central Unit,CU)以及一个或多个分布式单元(Distributed Unit,DU)组成,施主IAB可以获得下行数据或者将上行数据发送给核心网。将一个IAB节点作为参照的当前节点,其上一级节点为父节点,父节点可以为IAB节点,也可以为施主IAB;其下一级节点为子节点,子节点可以为IAB节点,也可以为UE。IAB节点与上一级节点之间的链路称为父链路,与其下一级节点(或者UE)之间的链路称为子链路。IAB节点与其父节点之间的链路称为父回程链路,并分为下行父回程链路和上行父回程链路;IAB节点与其IAB子节点之间的链路称为子回程链路,并分为下行子回程链路和上行子回程链路;IAB节点与其UE子节点之间的链路称为子接入链路,并分为下行子接入链路和 上行子接入链路。
CU为IAB节点DU提供小区资源配置,包括时隙中每个符号的方向以及时隙中同一方向的符号的属性,其中,符号的方向包括上行(DownLink,DL)、下行(UpLink,UL)或者灵活(Flexible,F)符号,符号的属性包括硬(Hard),软(Soft)或者不可用(Not Available或者Unavailable)。由此IAB节点DU的时域资源类型包括7种:Hard DL、Hard F、Hard UL、Soft DL、Soft F、Soft UL、不可用。在下行、上行、或者灵活符号被配置为Hard的情况下,相应的,IAB节点DU可以在该符号上分别发送数据、接收数据、或者发送或接收数据。在下行、上行或者灵活符号被配置为不可用的情况下,IAB节点DU既不能在该符号上发送数据也不能在该符号上接收数据。在下行、上行或者灵活符号被配置为Soft的情况下,在如下几种情况下IAB节点DU可以在该符号上分别发送数据、接收数据、或者发送或接收数据:
1)在该符号上IAB节点MT没有发送数据或者接收数据。
2)IAB节点MT在该符号上发送数据或者接收数据,并且其发送或者接收数据不会因为IAB节点DU使用该符号而改变。
3)IAB节点MT检测下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)格式2_5(DCI format 2_5),DCI format 2_5中的可用性指示(Availability Indicator,AI)索引域值指示该Soft符号为可用。
此外,IAB节点DU发送或者接收特殊信号或信道的符号相当于被配置为Hard。发送或者接收特殊信号或信道包括但不限于:发送同步信号和广播信道块(Synchronization Signal and Physical Broadcast Channel Block,SSB),发送类型0物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)公共搜索空间集合(可以承载在pdcchConfigSIB1,searchSpaceSIB1或者searchSpaceZero信元中)对应的PDCCH,接收物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel,PRACH),接收调度请求(Scheduling Request,SR),发送周期的信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal,CSI-RS),发送系统消息(System Information,SI),接收半静态上行传输,发送半静态下行传输等。
IAB节点MT的服务小区(或者网络侧)可以通过DCI格式2_5指示IAB节点DU的时域符号的可用性。为了支持IAB节点的MT和DU之间(或者IAB节点的父链路和子链路之间)的频分复用(Frequency Division Multiplexing,FDM)或空分复用(Space Division Multiplexing,SDM),需要增强IAB节点DU的资源配置,即,需要考虑频域和空域资源的配置,减少复用时父链路和子链路之间的干扰。
在本申请实施例中,提供一种资源可用性确定方法,通过资源配置信息指示资源可用性组合并指示组合索引,针对频域或空域的资源可用性都可以灵活、全面地指示,IAB节点据此确定资源的可用性,减少父链路和子链路之间的干扰。

本实施例中,资源可用性组合可用于指示IAB节点DU的小区的至少一个时间单元中资源的可用性,例如,用于指示DU的小区的一个时间单元中Soft符号的可用性,或者用于指示DU的小区的一个时间单元中频域资源的可用性,或者用于指示DU的小区的一个时间单元中的Soft符号相应的频域资源的可用性,或者用于指示DU的小区的一个时间单元对应的空域资源的可用性等。每个资源可用性组合中可包含一个或多个元素,每个元素对应于一个时间单元。

Figure PCTCN2022071712-appb-000001
如果(N start+N size)mod P>0,最后一个频域单元的大小为
Figure PCTCN2022071712-appb-000002
否则,最后一个频域单元的大小为P;其余频域单元大小为P。
方法2:对于大小为N size个资源块的载波,其包含的频域单元数量(N FU)为N FU=ceil(N size/P),第一个(或者最后一个)频域单元的大小为N sizemod P,其余频域单元大小为P。
方法3:频域单元n是从资源块Offset+P*n开始的P个资源块。其中Offset为频域单元0的起始位置对应的资源块编号,或者为频域单元0的起始位置相对参考点A或者载波下边界偏移的资源块数。例如,其中Offset可以由网络侧提供,或者预定义。
方法4:频域单元n是从资源块S n开始的P n个资源块。n为非负整数,S n为频域单元n的起始位置对应的资源块编号,或者为频域单元n的起始位置相对参考点A或者载波下边界偏移的资源块数;P n为频域单元大小。例如,可以由网络侧提供RIV值,根据RIV值确定S n和P n,或者由网络侧直接提供S n和P n
方法5:对于大小为N size个资源块的载波,将其等分为M份,每份为一个频域单元。IAB节点不期望N size/M为非整数。
方法6:对于大小为N size个资源块的载波,定义M 1=N sizemod M,K 1=ceil(N size/M)。如果M 1>0,前M 1个频域单元大小为K 1,其余频域单元大小为K 1-1;如果M 1=0,所有频域单元大小均为K 1
其中,mod为取模(或者取余)运算,ceil()表示上取整运算,P为配置的或者根据预定义方式确定的频域单元大小,M为配置的或者根据预定义方式确定的频域单元数量。资源块编号从参考点A或者载波的下边界开始,即资源块0的子载波0对应参考点A或者载波的下边界,或者对应载波的资源块0的子载波0。上述方法仅仅是举例,也不排除其他方法。

如果Bitmap大小为N,但只有N1个频域单元(N1小于N)需要指示可用性,即Bitmap大小大于被指示的频域单元数,则忽略Bitmap中的N-N1比特,例如忽略Bitmap中的前N-N1比特,或者后N-N1比特,特定位置的N-N1比特;或者用Bitmap的前N1比特(或者后N1比特)来指示N1个频域单元的可用性,忽略其他比特值;或者配置或者预定义多个Bitmap大小不同的可用性图案集合(例如,配置或者预定义一个如表2所示的Bitmap大小为8比特的可用性图案集合,再配置或者预定义一个小于8比特的Bitmap表示的可用性图案集合);或者允许配置或者预定义的可用性图案集合中每个可用性图案的Bitmap大小不同。
如果Bitmap大小为N,有N2个频域单元(N2大于N)需要指示可用性,即Bitmap大小小于被指示的频域单元数,则前N2-N或后N2-N个频域单元不可用;或者,没有对前N2-N或后N2-N个频域单元进行可用性指示;或者,可用性图案(即Bitmap)周期对应频域单元的可用性,例如,N=6的Bitmap为xxyyxx,如果N2=9,则用周期重复后的Bitmap xxyyxxxxy(即前3比特和后3比特相同)指示频域单元的可用性。

另外,第一方向的符号、第二方向的符号和三方向的符号对应的实际符号方向也可以根据符号方向在时间单元中的时间顺序确定,如果符号方向在时间单元中的顺序为下行-灵活-上行,或者下行-灵活,或者灵活-上行,则第一方向的符号、第二方向的符号和第三方向的符号分别为下行、灵活和上行符号;如果符号方向在时间单元中的顺序为上行-灵活-下行,或者上行-灵活,或者灵活-下行,则第一方向的符号、第二方向的符号和第三方向的符号分别为上行、灵活和下行符号;如果时间单元全为下行、全为上行或者全为灵活符号,则预定义3个可用性图案索引和符号方向的对应关系,例如,全为下行符号的时间单元与该时间单元对应的第一可用性图案索引对应,全为灵活符号的时间单元与该时间单元对应的第二可用性图案索引对应,全为上行符号的时间单元与该时间单元对应的第三可用性图案索引对应。DCI中的一个指示索引域(取值为一个第一资源可用性组合的组合索引)指示了至少一个时间单元中频域资源的可用性。第一资源可用性组合中一个元素(取值为3个可用性图案索引构成的集合)指示了一个时间单元中不同方向的符号对应的频域资源的可用性。
