The implementations described in the illustrative examples below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

FIG. 1 is an architectural diagram of a communication system between a network device and a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment. The method for determining transmission waveform parameters provided by the present disclosure can be applied to the communication system architecture diagram shown in FIG. 1 . As shown in FIG. 1 , the network side device may send signaling based on the architecture shown in FIG. 1 .

It can be understood that the communication system between the network device and the terminal shown in FIG. 1 is only a schematic illustration, and the wireless communication system may also include other network devices, such as core network devices, wireless relay devices, and wireless backhaul devices. Transmission equipment, etc., are not shown in Figure 1. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the number of network devices and the number of terminals included in the wireless communication system.

It can be further understood that the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is a network that provides a wireless communication function. Wireless communication systems can use different communication technologies, such as code division multiple access (CDMA), wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA) , frequency division multiple access (frequency division multiple access, FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (orthogonal frequency-division multiple access, OFDMA), single carrier frequency division multiple access (single Carrier FDMA, SC-FDMA), carrier sense Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance. According to the capacity, speed, delay and other factors of different networks, the network can be divided into 2G (English: generation) network, 3G network, 4G network or future evolution network, such as 5G network, 5G network can also be called a new wireless network ( New Radio, NR). For convenience of description, the present disclosure will sometimes refer to a wireless communication network simply as a network.

Further, the network devices involved in the present disclosure may also be referred to as radio access network devices. The wireless access network equipment may be: a base station, an evolved node B (base station), a home base station, an access point (AP) in a wireless fidelity (WIFI) system, a wireless relay A node, a wireless backhaul node, a transmission point (TP) or a transmission and reception point (TRP), etc., can also be a gNB in an NR system, or can also be a component or part of a device that constitutes a base station Wait. When it is a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system, the network device may also be an in-vehicle device. It should be understood that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the specific technology and specific device form adopted by the network device are not limited.

Further, the terminal involved in the present disclosure may also be referred to as terminal equipment, user equipment (User Equipment, UE), mobile station (Mobile Station, MS), mobile terminal (Mobile Terminal, MT), etc. A device that provides voice and/or data connectivity, for example, a terminal may be a handheld device with wireless connectivity, a vehicle-mounted device, or the like. At present, some examples of terminals are: Smartphone (Mobile Phone), Pocket Personal Computer (PPC), PDA, Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), notebook computer, tablet computer, wearable device, or Vehicle equipment, etc. In addition, when it is a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system, the terminal device may also be an in-vehicle device. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific technology and specific device form adopted by the terminal.

In the communication system, for scenarios such as low-rate and high-latency (such as meter reading, environmental monitoring, etc.) in the Internet of Things business, two related technologies are proposed: MTC and NB-IoT. At present, NB-IoT technology can support a maximum rate of several hundred K, and MTC can support a maximum rate of several M. However, with the continuous development of Internet of Things services (such as monitoring, smart home, wearable devices, and industrial sensor detection), a rate of tens to 100 M is generally required, and the requirements for delay are relatively increased. Therefore, in the communication system, the two major technologies of MTC and NB-IoT can no longer meet the requirements of the current Internet of Things business. Therefore, it is proposed to design a new user equipment in the new air interface of the communication system to cover the service requirements of mid-end IoT devices that require a rate of tens to 100 M, and at the same time have a relatively high delay. At present, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standardization will be used to cover user equipment that requires a rate of tens to 100 megabits and high latency for mid-range IoT devices. It is called a Reduced capability terminal, abbreviated as Redcap terminal or NR-lite.

On the other hand, Redcap terminals generally need to meet the requirements of low cost, low complexity, a certain degree of coverage enhancement, and power saving. However, the new air interface communication technology is designed for high-end terminals such as high-speed and low-latency, and cannot meet the above requirements of NR-lite. Therefore, it is necessary to transform the current new air interface communication technology to meet the above requirements of NR-lite. For example, according to the requirements of low cost and low complexity, the radio frequency (RF) bandwidth of the NR IoT can be limited (for example, limited to 5MHz or 10MHz; or the buffer size of NR-lite) can be limited, thereby limiting each The size of the second receive transport block, etc. For another example, according to the requirement of power saving, the communication process can be simplified to reduce the number of times that the Redcap terminal detects the downlink control channel, and the like.

In the development process of the new generation of communication technology, in the design physical layer of the new generation of communication technology, the waveform is a core technology component. 3GPP chose to expand the use of frequency division multiplexing technology OFDM, while adding CP-OFDM and DFT-s-OFDM for the new generation of communication technologies in the uplink and downlink. The CP-OPDM waveform is mainly used to obtain higher throughput, For example, for cell center users. DFT-s-OFDM is mainly used in power-constrained scenarios to obtain lower PARP. CP-OPDM and DFT-s-OFDM can transmit the transmission waveform used by Msg.3 for the terminal in the random access process.

In the related art, the transmission waveform parameter corresponding to the transmission waveform used by the PUSCH of Msg.3 is configured by RMSI, which is a common message. The Msg.3 of all terminals in the cell use the same transmission waveform. In the following implementation manner, whether the terminal's Msg.3 uses DFT-s-OFDM needs to be activated by RMSI.

In the new generation of communication technology, a coverage enhancement function is introduced, and a terminal can perform uplink coverage enhancement through full power repetition (repetition). Moreover, as mentioned above, the Redcap terminal is also introduced. Due to the limitation of the form of the Redcap terminal, there will be a loss of 3db wire efficiency (antenna efficiency). At this time, in the case of poor sub-coverage, full-power transmission or full-power repeated transmission is also required. In the related art, the target of CP-OPDM and DFT-s-OFDM may be a terminal with relatively good coverage, and may also be a terminal or Redcap terminal that needs coverage enhancement. Because, the transmission waveform parameters that are commonly configured in RMSI will no longer match the channel configuration of the terminal. Therefore, when configuring common transmission waveform parameters in RMSI, an implementation manner is to configure transmission waveform parameters corresponding to DFT-s-OFDM in RMSI, and all terminals use DFT-s-OFDM to send Msg.3. This embodiment is relatively conservative, and in this case, the transmission efficiency (SE) of the terminal with better channel condition will be lost. An implementation manner is to configure transmission waveform parameters corresponding to CP-OPDM in RMSI, and all terminals use CP-OPDM to send Msg.3. This embodiment is relatively radical, and at this time, the PAPR of the terminal that needs to perform coverage enhancement will be very high.

Based on this, the present disclosure provides a method for determining transmission waveform parameters. Different transmission waveform parameters are configured for different coverage enhancement terminals, and different types of terminals can send Msg.3 based on different transmission waveforms. That is, for a terminal with normal coverage, the transmission waveform parameters corresponding to CP-OPDM are configured, and for a terminal that needs coverage enhancement, the transmission waveform parameters corresponding to DFT-s-OFDM are configured. The method can ensure the PAPR required by the terminal with poor coverage, and can also ensure the transmission efficiency of the terminal with better coverage.

Fig. 2 is a flow chart of a method for determining a transmission waveform parameter according to an exemplary embodiment. This embodiment may be implemented independently or in conjunction with any one or more of the embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2 , the method for determining transmission waveform parameters is used in a terminal, and includes the following steps.

In step S11, the first indication information is received.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the first indication information is used to indicate a transmission waveform parameter. Wherein, the transmission waveform parameters include at least a first transmission waveform parameter and a second transmission waveform parameter. Exemplarily, the transmission waveform parameters are at least transmission waveform parameters corresponding to CP-OPDM and transmission waveform parameters corresponding to DFT-s-OFDM.

In step S12, according to at least one of the state of the terminal and the indication information, the transmission waveform parameters used for sending the message are determined.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the state of the terminal includes at least a first state and a second state, and the terminal in the first state and the terminal in the second state have different performance parameters and/or channel states. The terminal in the first state indicates that the state of the terminal is the first state, and the terminal in the second state indicates that the state of the terminal is the second state. For example, the first state is a normal capability state, and the terminal in the first state is a terminal with normal capability. The second state is a low-capability state, and the terminal in the second state is a terminal having a low-capability state. Of course, this is only an example, and not a specific limitation to the first state and the second state in the present disclosure.

In the method for determining transmission waveform parameters provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, by configuring different transmission waveform configuration parameters for terminals in different states, the terminal can ensure the PAPR required by the terminal with poor coverage when sending a message, and can also ensure the coverage Better terminal transmission efficiency.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the state of the terminal may be a reference signal measurement value, in other words, the first state terminal and the second state terminal have different reference signal measurement values. The reference signal measurement value may be reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP).

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the performance parameter of the terminal may be one of the following:

different types of terminals;

different versions of the terminal; and

Terminals with different functions.

For example, the terminal in the first state and the terminal in the second state may be terminals of different types; alternatively, the terminal in the first state and the terminal in the second state may be terminals of different versions; or the terminal in the first state and the terminal in the second state may be different functional terminal.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for determining a transmission waveform parameter according to an exemplary embodiment. This embodiment may be implemented independently or in conjunction with any one or more of the embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3 , the method for determining transmission waveform parameters is used in a terminal, and includes the following steps.

In step S21, the second indication information is received.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the second indication information is used to instruct the terminal to determine the state of the terminal. The terminal performs channel state measurement based on the second indication message sent by the network side, determines the reference signal measurement value, and further determines the state of the terminal itself based on the reference signal measurement value.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second indication message may be an indication message different from the first indication message, that is, the message used by the network side device to instruct the transmission waveform parameter is different from the message used to instruct the terminal to determine the state of the terminal.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second indication message may also be the same indication information as the first indication message, that is, the message used by the network side device to instruct the transmission waveform parameter and the message used to instruct the terminal to determine the state of the terminal in the same instruction message.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the correspondence between the transmission waveform parameter, the physical random access channel (Physical Random Access Channel, PRACH) set and the state of the terminal may be the following correspondence:

The first transmission waveform parameter corresponds to the first PRACH set, and the first PRACH set corresponds to the first state terminal. The second transmission waveform parameter corresponds to the second PRACH set, and the second PRACH set corresponds to the second state terminal.

Wherein, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the parameters of the first PRACH set and the second PRACH set are completely different or not identical.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first indication message includes: indication information for indicating the waveform parameters of the terminal application in the first state, and indication information for indicating the waveform parameters of the terminal application in the second state. The terminal may receive the first indication message based on the RSMI. As described above, the first transmission waveform parameter corresponds to the first PRACH set, the first PRACH set corresponds to the terminal in the first state, the second transmission waveform parameter corresponds to the second PRACH set, and the second PRACH set corresponds to the correspondence between the terminals in the second state The terminal determines to report Msg.1 in the corresponding PRACH set according to its own state, and the network determines the transmission waveform parameters used by the terminal to send messages subsequently according to the received Msg.1. Wherein, the subsequent sending of the message may be sending Msg.3.

Exemplarily, referring to Table 1, the terminal determines its own state according to the range of RSRP, the terminal sends Msg.1 in the corresponding PRACH resource according to its own state, and the network side device can determine the terminal to send Msg.1 subsequently based on the received Msg.1. 3 The transmission waveform used.

The value of each element is independent of any other element value in Table 1. Therefore, those skilled in the art can understand that the value of each element in Table 1 is an independent embodiment.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first indication message may further include transmission waveform parameter indication information used by the terminal in one of multiple terminal states. In other words, the terminal may receive the first indication message based on the RMSI message, and based on the indication information included in the first indication message, determine the transmission waveform parameters applied by the terminal in one of the states, while the terminals in other states use the predefined transmission waveform parameters . Wherein, the first indication message is used to indicate the indication information of the transmission waveform parameter applied by the terminal, which may be for the terminal in the first state, or may be for the terminal in the second state.

Similarly, based on the similar design ideas in Table 1 above, an embodiment of the present disclosure also proposes a method for determining a transmission waveform parameter, including: determining a state of a terminal, and determining, according to the state of the terminal, a method used by the terminal for transmission Transfer waveform parameters.

The predefined transmission waveform parameters may be default transmission waveform parameters set in the terminal or determined through a communication protocol.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, exemplarily, the terminal in the first state is a terminal in normal coverage, and the terminal in the second state is a terminal in need of coverage enhancement. Then, the first indication message includes indication information for indicating the transmission waveform parameter used by the terminal under normal coverage, and the transmission waveform parameter may be the transmission waveform parameter corresponding to CP-OFDM.
