Description

波束配置方法、波束配置装置及存储介质 技术领域
本公开涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种波束配置方法、波束配置装置及存储介质。
背景技术
在新无线技术(New Radio,NR)中,例如通信频段在frequency range 2(FR2)时,由于高频信道衰减较快,为了保证覆盖范围,需要使用基于波束(beam)的发送和接收。当网络设备(例如基站)有多个发送接收点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)时,可以使用Multi-TRP(多个TRP)为终端提供服务,包括使用Multi-TRP为终端发送物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)。
相关技术中,使用多个TRP发送PDCCH的方案中,可以为终端配置接收该PDCCH的传输配置指示(transmission configuration indication,TCI)状态,即配置接收波束。例如为终端配置控制资源集(Control Resource Set,CORESET),并配置CORESET对应的TCI状态(TCI state),并为终端配置一个搜索空间集(Search Space set,SS set),与配置的CORESET关联。终端在接收SS set中的PDCCH时,就使用配置的TCI状态对应的波束进行接收。目前每个SS set只能与一个CORESET关联,每个CORESET只配置一个TCI状态。并且,针对CORESET配置的波束为终端服务小区的TRP对应的波束。然而,使用Multi-TRP为终端提供服务时,可以是通过邻小区的TRP为终端提供服务。故,针对Multi-TRP为终端提供服务的场景中如何进行波束配置仍需要进一步优化。

具体实施方式
这里将详细地对示例性实施例进行说明,其示例表示在附图中。下面的描述涉及附图时,除非另有表示,不同附图中的相同数字表示相同或相似的要素。以下示例性实施例中所描述的实施方式并不代表与本公开相一致的所有实施方式。相反,它们仅是与如所附权利要求书中所详述的、本公开的一些方面相一致的装置和方法的例子。
本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法可应用于图1所示的无线通信系统中。参阅图1所示,该无线通信系统中包括终端和网络设备。终端通过无线资源与网络设备相连接,并进行数据的发送与接收。
可以理解的是,图1所示的无线通信系统仅是进行示意性说明,无线通信系统中还可包括其它网络设备,例如还可以包括核心网设备、无线中继设备和无线回传设备等,在图1中未画出。本公开实施例对该无线通信系统中包括的网络设备数量和终端数量不做限定。
进一步可以理解的是,本公开实施例的无线通信系统,是一种提供无线通信功能的网络。无线通信系统可以采用不同的通信技术,例如码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access,WCDMA)、时分多址(time division multiple access,TDMA)、频分多址(frequency division multiple access,FDMA)、正交频分多址(orthogonal frequency-division multiple access,OFDMA)、单载波频分多址(single Carrier FDMA,SC-FDMA)、载波侦听多路访问/冲突避免(Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance)。根据不同网络的容量、速率、时延等因素可以将网络分为2G(英文:generation)网络、3G网络、4G网络或者未来演进网络,如5G网 络,5G网络也可称为是新无线网络(New Radio,NR)。为了方便描述,本公开有时会将无线通信网络简称为网络。
进一步的,本公开中涉及的网络设备也可以称为无线接入网设备。该无线接入网设备可以是:基站、演进型基站(evolved node B,eNB)、家庭基站、无线保真(wireless fidelity,WIFI)系统中的接入点(access point,AP)、无线中继节点、无线回传节点、传输点(transmission point,TP)或者发送接收点(transmission and reception point,TRP)等,还可以为NR系统中的gNB,或者,还可以是构成基站的组件或一部分设备等。当为车联网(V2X)通信系统时,网络设备还可以是车载设备。应理解,本公开的实施例中,对网络设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
进一步的,本公开中涉及的终端,也可以称为终端设备、用户设备(User Equipment,UE)、移动台(Mobile Station,MS)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal,MT)等,是一种向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,例如,终端可以是具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、车载设备等。目前,一些终端的举例为:智能手机(Mobile Phone)、口袋计算机(Pocket Personal Computer,PPC)、掌上电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、笔记本电脑、平板电脑、可穿戴设备、或者车载设备等。此外,当为车联网(V2X)通信系统时,终端设备还可以是车载设备。应理解,本公开实施例对终端所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
本公开中网络设备与终端之间基于波束进行数据传输。传统方法中,网络设备使用一个TRP为终端发送PDCCH,为终端配置发送和/或接收该PDCCH的波束,并通过TCI状态指示。其中,TCI状态用于指示PDCCH与TCI状态指示的参考信号资源为准共址(Quasi co-location,或Quasi co-located)的关系,其配置方法为:为终端配置一个CORESET比如CORESET#1,且配置该CORESET#1对应的TCI状态为TCI#1。再为终端配置一个SS set,与CORESET#1关联,那么终端在接收SS set中resource上的PDCCH,就使用TCI#1指示的参考信号对应的波束,即PDCCH与TCI#1指示的参考信号为准共址。目前每个SS set只能与一个CORESET关联,每个CORESET只配置一个TCI状态。
当网络设备(例如基站)有多个TRP时,网络设备可以使用多个TRP(多个TRP也称为Multi-TRP)为终端提供服务,包括使用多个TRP为终端发送PDCCH。当使用多个TRP为终端发送PDCCH时,不同的TRP使用不同的波束发送。
其中,Multi-TRP的典型值为2,以下实施例中有些时候以Multi-TRP为终端发送的PDCCH的数量为2为例进行说明。
在Rel-15/16中对于CORESET#0的波束,终端有两种方法确定:
一种是终端在随机接入之前,通过检测网络设备发送的同步信号块(Synchronization Signal and PBCH block,SSB),当某个SSB的参考信号接收功率(reference signal received power,RSRP)大于一个阈值时,终端使用该SSB对应的波束在该SSB对应的随机接入时频资源上发送该SSB对应的随机接入前导码,同时终端和网络设备将该SSB对应的波束确定为CORESET#0对应的波束。
另一种方法:网络设备通过信令指示CORESET#0对应的TCI state来确定CORESET#0的波束。
上述方法中,CORESET#0的波束对应的都是服务小区的TRP对应的波束。然而,在Rel-17中,多波束(Multi-beam)中考虑层1-层2(L1-L2)中心(centric)的移动性(mobility)、小区间多TRP(inter-cell Multi-TRP)中考虑不同小区(cell)的Multi-TRP、Multi-TRP波束管理(beam management for Multi-TRP)中也考虑不同cell的multi-TRP。那么在这些情况下,CORESET#0的TCI state是否可以关联邻小区的RS,是需要解决的问题,邻小区也可以称为非服务小区(non-serving cell)。
本公开实施例提供一种波束配置方法,在该波束配置方法中,确定CORESET的TCI state,并提供TCI state是否可以与邻小区的参考信号资源关联的波束配置方法。
一种实施方式中,本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中,CORESET配置有一个或多个TCI state,该一个或多个TCI state指示的参考信号资源与终端的服务小区和/或邻小区相关联。其中,一个TCI state指示的参考信号资源包括一个或多个参考信号资源。一个或多个参考信号资源中可以所有的参考信号资源与同一个TRP关联。或一个或多个参考信号资源中不同的参考信号资源与不同的TRP关联。TCI state指示的参考信号资源与终端的服务小区相关联表示该TCI state指示的参考信号资源对应的小区标识为服务小区的小区标识;TCI state指示的参考信号资源与终端的邻小区相关联表示该TCI state指示的参考信号资源对应的小区标识为邻小区的小区标识。小区标识可以为物理小区标识,或重新编号之后的一个index,或一个用于区分服务小区或非服务小区的标志flag。
图2是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束配置方法的流程图,如图2所示,波束配置方法用于终端中,包括以下步骤。
在步骤S11中,确定CORESET的一个或多个TCI state。
其中,CORESET的一个或多个TCI state指示的参考信号资源与以下至少一种相关联:所述终端的服务小区;以及所述终端的邻小区。
一方面,本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中,CORESET的一个或多个TCI state指 示的参考信号资源与终端的服务小区相关联。

图5是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束配置方法的流程图,如图5所示,波束配 置方法用于终端中,包括以下步骤。
在步骤S41中,响应于接收来自网络设备的指示信令,指示信令用于确定一个或多个TCI state。
其中,指示信令可以包括媒体接入控制控制单元(media access control control element,MAC CE)和/或下行控制信令(Downlink Control Information,DCI)。
一种实施方式中,指示信令包括MAC CE,MAC CE中携带CORESET标识(CORESET ID),以及与每个CORESET ID对应的一个或多个TCI state。每个TCI state指示的参考信号可以都是服务小区对应的参考信号,也可以都是邻小区对应的参考信号,还可以是服务小区的参考信号以及邻小区的参考信号。

其中,DCI用于指示确定包括CORESET在内的通用波束(common beam)组的common beam。
其中,一个common beam组包含至少一种信道和/或参考信号,common组内的所有信道和/或参考信号使用同样的一个common beam。
其中,common beam组中的信道包括PDCCH,PDSCH,PUCCH,PUSCH,物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel,PRACH),物理广播信道(Physical broadcast channel,PBCH)。其中,PDCCH,PDSCH,PUCCH,PUSCH可以为指定终端(UE specific)的,或也可以为非指定终端(non-UE specific)的。
common beam组中的参考信号包括SSB,信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI)参考信号(CSI Reference Signal,CSI-RS),探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS),跟踪参考信号(tracking reference signal,TRS),定位参考信号(Positioning reference signals,PRS)等。其中,CSI-RS包括用于信道状态信息测量的CSI-RS,或用于波束测量的CSI-RS。SRS包括用于基于码本(codebook)和/或非码本(non-code book)信道状态信息测量的SRS,或用于波束测量的SRS或用于定位测量的SRS。

图6是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束配置方法的流程图,如图6所示,波束配 置方法用于终端中,包括以下步骤。
在步骤S51中,在新波束参考信号资源集合中,选择目标新波束参考信号资源。
在步骤S52中,将目标新波束参考信号资源对应的TCI state,确定为CORESET的一个或多个TCI state。
本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中,新波束参考信号资源集合可以是网络设备发送的。
一种实施方式中,响应于检测到第一TRP发生波束失败(波束失败也称为无线链路失败,即无线链路质量低于某个阈值),且检测到第一TRP对应的新波束参考信号资源集合中存在第一参考信号资源的参考信号接收功率大于第一阈值,确定第一参考信号资源为目标新波束参考信号资源,上报所述目标新波束参考信号资源的标识。其中,第一参考信号资源的标识也可以理解为是目标新波束对应的参考信号资源ID。第一参考信号资源的标识可以通过PUSCH MAC CE指示。
其中,目标新波束对应发生波束失败了的第一TRP或者对应未发生波束失败的第二TRP或对应该第三TRP。这种情况下,相当于与第一TRP对应的用于波束失败恢复的新波束的参考信号资源,可以为指向第二TRP的参考信号资源。即第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号资源集合中可以包含第二TRP对应的参考信号资源,或包含第三TRP对应的参考信号资源。即,第一参考信号资源与第一TRP关联。或第一参考信号资源与第二TRP关联,其中,第二TRP与第一TRP配置为与终端进行通信传输。或第一参考信号资源与第三TRP关联,其中,第三TRP为配置为与终端进行通信传输的第一TRP和第二TRP以外的其它TRP,第三TRP可以对应该服务小区或对应邻小区。当配置为与终端进行通信传输的TRP为多个时,比如多于两个时,第三TRP可以是除了配置为与终端进行通信传输的多个TRP以外的其它TRP。第一TRP、第二TRP和第三TRP的TRP标识不同,和/或对应的控制资源集池索引(CORESETPoolIndex)不一样,和/或对应的小区标识不一样。
进一步可以理解的是,本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中进行波束配置的CORESET包括CORESET#0和除CORESET#0以外的其他CORESET中的至少一种。
本公开实施例以下以对CORESET#0的TCI state配置过程为例进行说明。并以Multi-TRP为终端发送的PDCCH的数量为2为例进行说明。其中,以multi-TRP的场景下为终端提供通信传输的TRP包括第一TRP和第二TRP为例进行说明。
一种实施方式中,CORESET#0的TCI state只能与服务小区的RS关联,并包括如下两种情况。
情况一:在multi-TRP的场景下,比如第一TRP和第二TRP都为终端服务,当第一 TRP和第二TRP都为服务小区对应的TRP时,CORESET#0的波束可以为一个或两个。当CORESET#0的波束为一个时,可以在对应第一TRP的波束和对应第二TRP的波束之间切换。
本公开实施例中,波束指示信令可以是网络设备发送的下行MAC CE和/或DCI。若波束指示信令包括MAC CE,则MAC CE携带CORESET ID和针对每个CORESET ID的最多两个TCI state,每个TCI state指示的参考信号都是服务小区对应的参考信号。若波束指示信令包括DCI信令,DCI信令的codepoint对应最多两个TCI state,每个TCI state指示的参考信号都是服务小区对应的参考信号。其中,DCI用于指示CORESET#0在内的common beam组的common beam。其中,一个common beam组包含至少一种信道和/或参考信号,common组内的所有信道和/或参考信号使用同样的一个common beam。
common组内的信道包括PDCCH,PDSCH,PUCCH,PUSCH,PRACH,PBCH。其中,PDCCH,PDSCH,PUCCH,PUSCH可以为UE specific的或non-UE specific的。
common组内的参考信号包括SSB,CSI-RS,SRS,TRS,PRS等。其中,CSI-RS包括用于信道状态信息测量的CSI-RS,或用于波束测量的CSI-RS。SRS包括用于基于codebook和或non-code book信道状态信息测量的SRS,或用于波束测量的SRS或用于定位测量的SRS。
本公开实施例中波束指示可以是基于终端发送的。发送的触发条件是:终端检测到某个TRP发生波束失败。当第一TRP发生波束失败时,检测第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号集合中对应的各个参考信号资源,是否存在某个参考信号资源的L1-RSRP满足阈值Qin。如果存在某个参考信号资源的L1-RSRP满足阈值Qin,则将该参考信号资源的ID上报给基站。该新波束对应的参考信号资源ID使用PUSCH MAC CE指示。其中,PUSCH MAC CE包括但不限于用于指示per TRP的波束失败恢复时的PUSCH MAC CE。其中,新波束对应发生波束失败了的第一TRP或者新波束对应未发生波束失败的第二TRP或对应第三TRP。其中,第三TRP未配置为与终端进行通信传输,通信传输包括至少一种物理信道上的传输和/或参考信号的传输。第三TRP为服务小区的TRP。即,与第一TRP对应的用于波束失败恢复的新波束的参考信号资源,可以为指向第二TRP的参考信号资源。即第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号资源集合中可以包含第二TRP对应的参考信号资源,和/或包含该第三TRP对应的参考信号资源。第三TRP为服务小区的TRP。第一TRP、第二TRP和第三TRP的TRP标识不同,和/或对应的CORESETPoolIndex不一样,和/或对应的小区标识不一样。
情况二:在multi-TRP的场景下,比如第一TRP和第二TRP都为终端服务,当第一 TRP和第二TRP中存在TRP为邻小区对应的TRP时,CORESET#0的TCI state所指示的参考信号不能是邻小区的参考信号或不能与邻小区的参考信号是QCL type D的关系。
其中,波束指示信令可以是网络设备发送的下行MAC CE和/或DCI。波束指示信令可以参考上述情况一,不同之处在于,TCI state对应的参考信号资源不能是邻小区的。
可以理解的是,当TCI state对应一个或多个参考信号资源时,可以为一个或多个参考信号资源中的全部参考信号资源都不能是邻小区的。或一个或多个参考信号资源中的部分参考信号资源不能是邻小区的。
本公开实施例中,波束指示信令可以是基于终端发送的,发送的触发条件是:检测到某个TRP发生波束失败。当第一TRP发生波束失败时,检测第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号集合中对应的各个参考信号资源,是否存在某个参考信号资源的L1-RSRP满足Qin。如果满足,则将该参考信号资源的ID上报给基站。该新波束对应的参考信号资源ID使用PUSCH MAC CE指示。当第一TRP为服务小区的TRP,第二TRP为邻小区的TRP时,新波束对应发生波束失败了的第一TRP,或对应与第一TRP为同一服务小区的第三TRP,不能对应第二TRP。而当第一TRP为邻小区的TRP时,第二TRP为对应服务小区的TRP时,新波束对应发生波束失败了的第一TRP,或对应第二TRP或对应与第二TRP为同一服务小区的第三TRP。其中,第三TRP未配置为与终端进行通信传输。即,相当于第一TRP为服务小区的TRP且第二TRP为邻小区的TRP时,第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号资源集合中不可以包含第二TRP对应的参考信号资源,但可以包含与第一TRP为同一服务小区的第三TRP对应的参考信号资源。而当第一TRP为邻小区的TRP且第二TRP为服务小区的TRP时,第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号资源集合中可以包含第二TRP对应的参考信号资源,也可以包含与第二TRP为同一服务小区的第三TRP的参考信号资源。第一TRP、第二TRP和第三TRP的TRP标识不同,和/或对应的CORESETPoolIndex不一样,和/或对应的小区标识不一样。
另一种实施方式中,CORESET#0的TCI state能与邻小区的RS关联,其可以与第一TRP和/或第二TRP关联。
其中,在multi-TRP的场景下,CORESET#0的波束可以为一个或两个,当为一个时,可以在对应第一TRP的波束和对应第二TRP的波束之间切换。
本公开实施例中,波束指示信令可以网络设备发送的下行MAC CE和/或DCI。波束指示信令可以参考上述情况一,不同之处在于,TCI state对应的参考信号资源是服务小区和/或邻小区的。
本公开实施例中,波束指示信令可以是基于终端发送的。发送的触发条件是:检测到 某个TRP发生波束失败。当第一TRP发生波束失败时,检测第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号集合中对应的各个参考信号资源,是否存在某个参考信号资源的L1-RSRP满足Qin,如果满足,则将该参考信号资源的ID上报给基站。该新波束对应的参考信号资源ID使用PUSCH MAC CE指示。新波束对应发生波束失败了的第一TRP或者新波束对应第二TRP或对应另一TRP第三TRP。第一TRP为服务小区或邻小区的TRP,第二TRP为服务小区或邻小区的TRP。其中,第三TRP未配置为与终端进行通信传输。第三TRP为服务小区或邻小区的TRP。第三TRP对应的邻小区可以与第一TRP或第二TRP对应的邻小区相同或不同。第一TRP、第二TRP和第三TRP的TRP标识不同,和/或对应的CORESETPoolIndex不一样,和/或对应的小区标识不一样。即,相当于与第一TRP对应的用于波束失败恢复的新波束的参考信号资源,可以为指向第二TRP的参考信号资源。即第一TRP对应的新候选波束参考信号资源集合中可以包含第二TRP对应的参考信号资源或另一TRP第三TRP的参考信号资源。因为CORESET#0的波束既可以指向服务小区也可以指向邻小区。
典型的情况下,本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中,适用于确定CORESET#0的TCI state的RS关联的小区。除了CORESET#0之外的其它CORESET的TCI state可以与服务小区或邻小区的RS关联。而CORESET#0的波束配置包含两种可能性,一种是只能与服务小区的RS关联,另一种是服务小区和邻小区的RS都可以关联。
本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法,提供了确定CORESET#0的TCI state的RS关联的小区的方法,进一步提出指示CORESET#0的TCI state的方法。
基于相同的构思,本公开实施例提供一种应用于网络设备的波束配置方法。

本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中,CORESET的一个或多个TCI state可以与邻小区的参考信号资源关联,而与服务小区的参考信号资源也关联。
可以理解的是,本公开实施例提供的波束配置方法中进行波束配置的CORESET包括CORESET#0和除CORESET#0以外的其他CORESET中的至少一种。
进一步可以理解的是,本公开实施例中CORESET的一个或多个TCI state用于指示该CORESET资源上的PDCCH与TCI状态指示的参考信号为准共址关系。例如可以是Quasi co-location关系,或Quasi co-located关系。
更进一步可以理解的是,上述涉及的邻小区也可以理解为是非服务小区。
