本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种开关装置、通信方法及相关设备。The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a switch device, a communication method, and related equipment.
背景技术Background technique
首先,为了解决手机终端的“死亡之握”问题,发射天线选择(transmit antenna selection,TAS)技术如今已广泛使用,但随着横屏游戏以及视频等应用场景越来越多,用户将手机横屏使用的概率也越来越高,导致手机原有的上下两根天线均有被用户双手“握死”的可能,从而严重影响用户的使用体验。由此,请参阅图1,图1是一种LTE的多天线切换电路示意图,如图1所示,多天线选择(multi antenna selection,MAS)技术在上下两根天线的基础上又增加了左右两根天线,从而使得长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)主分集信号的传输可以在下左天线(ANT0)、下右天线(ANT2)、上左天线(ANT1)和上右天线(ANT3)之间进行选择,减少天线被用户握死的几率,保证用户的使用体验。然后,请参阅图2,图2是一种NR的多天线切换电路示意图,如图2所示,一般情况下,手机终端的新空口(new radio,NR)需要支持一路发射四路接收(1 transmit 4 receiver,1T4R)的探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS),也即SRS信号需要在4根天线(例如图2所示的ANT4、ANT5、ANT6和ANT7)上轮流发射,以使得基站可以通过SRS信号对手机终端的下行信道作质量估计等。First of all, in order to solve the "death grip" problem of mobile terminals, transmit antenna selection (TAS) technology has been widely used today. The probability of screen usage is also getting higher and higher, which leads to the possibility that the original upper and lower antennas of the mobile phone may be "held to death" by the user's hands, thus seriously affecting the user's experience. Therefore, please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a multi-antenna switching circuit of LTE. As shown in FIG. 1, the multi-antenna selection (MAS) technology adds left and right antennas on the basis of the upper and lower antennas. Two antennas, so that long term evolution (LTE) main diversity signal transmission can be between the lower left antenna (ANT0), the lower right antenna (ANT2), the upper left antenna (ANT1) and the upper right antenna (ANT3) Make selections to reduce the chance of the antenna being held by the user and ensure the user's experience. Then, please refer to Figure 2. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a multi-antenna switching circuit for NR. The sounding reference signal (SRS) of transmit 4 receiver, 1T4R), that is, the SRS signal needs to be transmitted on four antennas (such as ANT4, ANT5, ANT6 and ANT7 shown in Figure 2) in turn, so that the base station can transmit Estimate the quality of the downlink channel of the mobile phone terminal through the SRS signal.
如上所述,当LTE主分集信号的传输需要实现在4天线之间进行切换,同时NR的SRS信号需要在4天线之间实现轮流发射的情况下,一共需要8根物理天线。因此,为了减少天线数量,降低生产成本,大多采取LTE和NR共用4根天线的方案。然而,现有的LTE和NR的天线共用技术,虽然直接减少了一半的天线数量,但是为了保证LTE和NR双方进行天线切换时的正常工作,又添加了更多额外的元器件,反而增加了电路布局面积和制造成本,这与原本提出共用天线方案的目的大大矛盾。As mentioned above, when the transmission of the LTE main-diversity signal needs to be switched between 4 antennas, and the NR SRS signal needs to be transmitted in turn among the 4 antennas, a total of 8 physical antennas are required. Therefore, in order to reduce the number of antennas and reduce the production cost, the scheme of sharing four antennas for LTE and NR is mostly adopted. However, although the existing LTE and NR antenna sharing technology directly reduces the number of antennas by half, in order to ensure the normal operation of the antenna switching between LTE and NR, more additional components are added, which increases the Circuit layout area and manufacturing cost, which greatly contradict the original purpose of the shared antenna scheme.
因此,如何在保证LTE和NR共用天线,并实现合理天线切换和进行正常工作的情况下,进一步减少电路布局面积,降低制造成本是亟待解决的问题。Therefore, how to further reduce the circuit layout area and reduce the manufacturing cost under the condition of ensuring that LTE and NR share the antenna and realizing reasonable antenna switching and normal operation is an urgent problem to be solved.

首先,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。First, some terms in this application will be explained so as to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art.
(1)多天线选择(multi antenna selection,MAS)技术。如图1所示,为了避免用户横屏持握手机时,导致手机的天线被用户“握死”,从而影响用户体验的情况,手机等通信设备可以设置有下左天线(ANT0)、下右天线(ANT2)、上左天线(ANT1)和上右天线(ANT3)这4根天线,如此,LTE主分集信号可以通过如图1所示的双刀双掷开关(double pole double throw,DPDT)和多个单刀双掷开关(single pole double throw,SPDT)在4根天线之间进行选择。例如当用户横屏操作游戏时,若其中的ANT1、ANT2和ANT3天线因为被用户双手握住而信号较差,则此时可以通过DPDT、SPDT1和SPDT2选择信号较好的ANT0天线发射LTE主集发射(transmit,TX)信号,从而确保手机任何时刻都能在信号质量最好的天线上进行数据传送,提高客户的使用体验。(1) Multi antenna selection (multi antenna selection, MAS) technology. As shown in Figure 1, in order to avoid the situation that the antenna of the mobile phone is "deadly held" by the user when the user holds the mobile phone horizontally, thereby affecting the user experience, communication devices such as mobile phones can be provided with the lower left antenna (ANT0), the lower right antenna Antenna (ANT2), upper left antenna (ANT1) and upper right antenna (ANT3) are four antennas. In this way, the LTE main diversity signal can pass through the double pole double throw switch (double pole double throw, DPDT) as shown in Figure 1. and multiple single pole double throw (SPDT) switches to select between 4 antennas. For example, when the user is operating the game in horizontal screen, if the ANT1, ANT2 and ANT3 antennas are held by the user's hands and the signal is poor, then the ANT0 antenna with better signal can be selected through DPDT, SPDT1 and SPDT2 to transmit the LTE main set Transmit (transmit, TX) signal, so as to ensure that the mobile phone can transmit data on the antenna with the best signal quality at any time, and improve the customer's use experience.
(2)探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS),或者称之为上行探测信号。第五代移动通信技术(5th-generation,5G)等支持波束成形(beaforming)技术,可以向终端定向发射。而基站要想定向发射,首先得探测到终端的位置以及传输通路的质量等,从而使基站的资源更精准的分配给每个终端。终端发送SRS信号即是用于基站探测终端位置和信道质量的方式之一。(2) Sounding reference signal (sounding reference signal, SRS), or called uplink sounding signal. The fifth-generation mobile communication technology (5th-generation, 5G) and the like supports beamforming (beaforming) technology, and can transmit directionally to the terminal. If the base station wants to transmit directionally, it must first detect the location of the terminal and the quality of the transmission path, so that the resources of the base station can be allocated to each terminal more accurately. Sending the SRS signal by the terminal is one of the ways for the base station to detect the location and channel quality of the terminal.
其中,如上所述,SRS的功能可以简单包括如下几点:Among them, as mentioned above, the functions of SRS can simply include the following points:
a.用于上行信道质量的估计,从而用于上行调度、上行同步(timing advance,TA)、上行波速管理等。a. It is used to estimate the quality of the uplink channel, so as to be used for uplink scheduling, uplink synchronization (timing advance, TA), and uplink wave speed management.
b.时分双工技术(time division duplexing,TDD)上下行信道互易的情况下,利用信道对称性,估计下行信道质量,如下行多输入多输出天线系统(multi input multi output,MIMO)中的权值计算等。其中,MIMO技术指在发射端和接收端分别使用多个发射天线和接收天线,使信号通过发射端与接收端的多个天线传送和接收,从而改善通信质量等,此处不再进行详述。b. In the case of time division duplexing (TDD) uplink and downlink channel reciprocity, the channel symmetry is used to estimate the downlink channel quality, as in the downlink multiple input multiple output antenna system (multi input multi output, MIMO) Weight calculation, etc. Among them, the MIMO technology refers to using multiple transmitting and receiving antennas at the transmitting end and the receiving end, respectively, so that signals are transmitted and received through the multiple antennas at the transmitting end and the receiving end, thereby improving communication quality, etc., which will not be described in detail here.
其中,为了实现上述功能,首先要实现SRS轮发,SRS轮发是指终端在不同的物理天线上轮流发送SRS信号。当前协议定义的SRS能力主要是1T2R,1T4R和2T4R这三种。如此,SRS轮发对硬件的需求主要是发射信号能够在不同天线上进行切换。需要说明的是,能够参与发送SRS信号的天线数越多,信道估计就越准,进而能获得的速率越高;如果只在固定天线发送则会丢失其它天线信息,天线没有充分利用,难以获得最高的速率。Among them, in order to realize the above-mentioned functions, firstly, SRS rotation must be realized. SRS rotation means that the terminal sends SRS signals on different physical antennas in turn. The SRS capabilities defined by the current protocol are mainly 1T2R, 1T4R and 2T4R. In this way, the hardware requirement of SRS rotation is mainly that the transmitted signal can be switched on different antennas. It should be noted that the more antennas that can participate in sending SRS signals, the more accurate the channel estimation and the higher the rate that can be obtained; if only the fixed antenna is sent, other antenna information will be lost, the antenna is not fully utilized, and it is difficult to obtain highest rate.
5G终端一般都配有多根收发天线,目前主流的5G手机、客户前置设备(customer premise equipment,CPE)等都采用2根发射天线、4根接收天线(即2T4R)。如果充分利用5G终端的多根天线轮流上报信道信息(即SRS轮发),则能够让基站获取的信息更全面,进行更精准的数据传输。其中,SRS轮发的主要模式可以如下:5G terminals are generally equipped with multiple transceiver antennas. At present, mainstream 5G mobile phones and customer premise equipment (CPE) all use 2 transmit antennas and 4 receive antennas (ie 2T4R). If the multiple antennas of the 5G terminal are used to report channel information in turn (that is, SRS rotation), the information obtained by the base station can be more comprehensive and more accurate data transmission can be performed. Among them, the main mode of SRS rotation can be as follows:
1T1R,只固定在一个天线上向基站反馈SRS信号,即不支持SRS轮发。1T1R, only one antenna is fixed to feed back SRS signals to the base station, that is, SRS rotation is not supported.
1T2R,终端在2个天线上轮流发射SRS信号,一次选择1个天线发射1T2R, the terminal transmits SRS signals on two antennas in turn, and selects one antenna to transmit at a time
1T4R,终端在4个天线上轮流发射SRS信号,一次选择1个天线发射。In 1T4R, the terminal transmits SRS signals on four antennas in turn, and selects one antenna for transmission at a time.
2T4R,终端在4个天线上轮流发射SRS信号,一次选择2个天线发射。其中,非独立组网(non standalone,NSA)模式下的终端常采用1T4R,而独立组网(standalone,SA)模式下的终端则常采用2T4R,等等,此处不再进行详述。In 2T4R, the terminal transmits SRS signals on 4 antennas in turn, and selects 2 antennas for transmission at a time. Among them, terminals in non-standalone (NSA) mode often use 1T4R, while terminals in standalone (SA) mode often use 2T4R, and so on, which will not be described in detail here.
如图2所示,该NR多天线切换电路能够实现的SRS轮发的规格为1T4R,可以通过如图2所示的多个双刀四掷开关(double pole four throw,DP4T),例如DP4T1和DP4T2的切换实现NR TX在ANT4、ANT5、ANT6和ANT7这4根天线上的轮发,也即实现SRS信号在4根天线上轮发。As shown in Figure 2, the NR multi-antenna switching circuit can realize the SRS round transmission specification of 1T4R, which can be achieved through multiple double pole four throw switches (DP4T) as shown in Figure 2, such as DP4T1 and The switching of DP4T2 realizes the rotation of NR TX on the 4 antennas ANT4, ANT5, ANT6 and ANT7, that is, the rotation of SRS signals on the 4 antennas.
需要说明的是,图1和图2仅为示例性的说明一种可能的LTE多天线切换开关电路和NR多天线切换电路,在一些可能的实施方式中,可以包括比图1或者图2更多或者更少,甚至不同的部件,等等,本申请实施例对此不作具体限定。It should be noted that FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are only exemplary to illustrate a possible LTE multi-antenna switching circuit and NR multi-antenna switching circuit, and in some possible implementations, may include more More or less, or even different components, etc., which are not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application.
如上所述,当LTE主分集信号的传输需要实现在4天线之间进行切换,同时NR的SRS信号需要在4天线之间实现轮流发射的情况下,一共需要8根物理天线,使得电路布局面积以及生产成本也随之增加。进一步的,请参阅图3,图3是一种终端天线典型分配示意图。如图3所示,随着当前手机终端通信规格越来越高,特别在5G时代频段的增加以及无线保真(wireless-fidelity,WIFI)和5G等新应用场景下,相应的天线种类和数目也越来越多(例如图3中的GPS天线、WIFI天线、sub6G-1天线、sub6G-2天线和sub6G-3天线等等)。如此,对手机终端布局堆叠设计和生产成本提出了挑战,若不加节制地增加天线,将会大大增加电路布局面积以及生产成本。此时,天线复用技术(或者称之为天线共用技术)的提出则可以有效解决目前物理天线数量较多的问题。As mentioned above, when the transmission of LTE main-diversity signals needs to be switched between 4 antennas, and the SRS signal of NR needs to be transmitted in turn among the 4 antennas, a total of 8 physical antennas are required, which makes the circuit layout area And the production cost also increases. Further, please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic diagram of typical allocation of terminal antennas. As shown in Figure 3, as the current mobile phone terminal communication specifications are getting higher and higher, especially in the 5G era with the increase in frequency bands and new application scenarios such as wireless-fidelity (WIFI) and 5G, the corresponding antenna types and numbers There are also more and more (eg GPS antenna, WIFI antenna, sub6G-1 antenna, sub6G-2 antenna and sub6G-3 antenna in Figure 3, etc.). In this way, the stacking design and production cost of the layout of the mobile phone terminal are challenged. If the antenna is increased without restraint, the circuit layout area and production cost will be greatly increased. At this time, the proposal of the antenna multiplexing technology (or called the antenna sharing technology) can effectively solve the problem of the large number of physical antennas at present.
综上,为了便于理解本申请实施例,进一步分析并提出本申请所具体要解决的技术问题。在现有技术中,关于LTE和NR的共用天线技术,包括多种技术方案,以下示例性的例举如下两种常用的方案。To sum up, in order to facilitate the understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the technical problems to be solved by the present application are further analyzed and proposed. In the prior art, the shared antenna technology of LTE and NR includes a variety of technical solutions, and the following two commonly used solutions are exemplified below.
方案一:请参阅图4a,图4a是一种LTE和NR共用天线的电路示意图。如图4a所示,传统的LTE和NR共用天线方案,是使用同向双工器(diplexer),或者称之为合路器,将LTE和NR天线实现合路。ANT1、ANT2、ANT3和ANT4中的每根天线均连接有一个合路器,从而使得LTE和NR之间互相独立,并均可以通过4根天线中的任意一根天线传输信号。其中,合路器可以将NR和LTE不同频率的信号合并,使两个不同频率的信号可以使用同一根天线,同时进行发送或者接收。其中,LTE一般走合路器的低频通道,NR一般走合路器的高频通道。Scheme 1: Please refer to FIG. 4a, which is a schematic circuit diagram of a shared antenna for LTE and NR. As shown in Fig. 4a, the traditional LTE and NR antenna sharing scheme uses a diplexer, or is called a combiner, to combine the LTE and NR antennas. Each antenna in ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 and ANT4 is connected with a combiner, which makes LTE and NR independent of each other, and can transmit signals through any one of the four antennas. The combiner can combine signals of different frequencies of NR and LTE, so that two signals of different frequencies can use the same antenna to transmit or receive at the same time. Among them, LTE generally follows the low frequency channel of the combiner, and NR generally follows the high frequency channel of the combiner.
进一步的,请参阅图4b,图4b是本申请实施例提供的一种LTE和NR共用天线的等效电路示意图。如图4b所示,可以将图4a中的DP4T1、DP4T2、SPDT1、SPDT2和DPDT等开关效为一个6P8T开关。显然,如图4b所示,LTETX和LTE主集接收(primary receive,PRX)均可以通过6P8T中的端口A与端口2、端口4、端口6或者端口8之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号;LTE分集接收(diversity receive,DRX)可以通过6P8T中的端口B与端口2、端口4、端口6或者端口8之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号;NRTX和NRPRX均可以通过6P8T中的端口C与端口1、端口3、端口5或者端口7之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号;NRDRX可以通过6P8T中的端口D与端口1、端口3、端口5或者端口7之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号;NR MIMOPRX可以通过6P8T中的端口E与端口1、端口3、端口5或者端口7之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号;NR MIMODRX可以通过6P8T中的端口F与端口1、端口3、端口5 或者端口7之间的导通来选择天线ANT1、ANT2、ANT3或者ANT4传输信号。Further, please refer to FIG. 4b, which is a schematic diagram of an equivalent circuit of a shared antenna for LTE and NR provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Fig. 4b, the switches such as DP4T1, DP4T2, SPDT1, SPDT2, and DPDT in Fig. 4a can be used as a 6P8T switch. Obviously, as shown in Figure 4b, both LTETX and LTE primary receive (PRX) can select the antenna ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or ANT4 transmit signals; LTE diversity reception (DRX) can select the antenna ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or the conduction between port B and port 2, port 4, port 6 or port 8 in 6P8T ANT4 transmits signals; both NRTX and NRPRX can select the antenna ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or ANT4 to transmit signals through the conduction between port C and port 1, port 3, port 5 or port 7 in 6P8T; NDRRX can transmit signals through 6P8T The conduction between port D and port 1, port 3, port 5 or port 7 selects antenna ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or ANT4 to transmit signals; NR MIMOPRX can pass port E in 6P8T and port 1, port 3, port 5 or the conduction between port 7 to select the antenna ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or ANT4 to transmit signals; NR MIMODRX can be selected by the conduction between port F and port 1, port 3, port 5 or port 7 in 6P8T Antennas ANT1, ANT2, ANT3 or ANT4 transmit signals.
如上所述,例如,当用户正在横屏操作游戏,由于横屏持握手机导致目前只有ANT1的天线信号较好,且目前SRS正要轮发至ANT1时,也即当LTE TX和NR TX均需要通过ANT1进行信号发射时。可以通过导通端口A和端口2,以及导通端口C和端口1,通过与端口1和端口2连接的合路器1,同时经由ANT1进行信号发射。如此,避免了一方占用天线,而另一方无法通过同一天线进行信号传输的情况,也即避免了彼此之间因为天线切换而互相打断工作的情况,实现了LTE与NR之间的互相独立,保证了在LTE和NR共用天线的情况下,LTE的天线切换和NR的SRS轮发均不受彼此影响,保证了双方工作的正常进行。As mentioned above, for example, when the user is operating the game in the horizontal screen, only the antenna signal of ANT1 is better because the phone is held in the horizontal screen, and the SRS is going to be sent to ANT1 in turn, that is, when both LTE TX and NR TX are used. When signal transmission through ANT1 is required. Signal transmission can be performed simultaneously via ANT1 by conducting port A and port 2, and conducting port C and port 1, through combiner 1 connected with port 1 and port 2. In this way, it avoids the situation that one party occupies the antenna, while the other party cannot transmit signals through the same antenna, that is, it avoids the situation that the work of each other is interrupted due to antenna switching, and realizes the independence between LTE and NR. It is ensured that in the case where the LTE and NR share the antenna, the antenna switching of LTE and the SRS rotation of NR are not affected by each other, which ensures the normal operation of both parties.
该方案一的缺点:如图4a和图4b所示,当LTE多天线电路和NR多天线电路合路后,4根天线需要4个合路器。虽然直接减少了一半的天线数量,但是额外增加的多个合路器也会极大程度上增加手机等通信设备的电路布局面积和生产成本,这与原本通过天线共用技术减少电路面积和生产成本的目的相矛盾,无法满足实际需求。Disadvantage of the first solution: As shown in Figure 4a and Figure 4b, when the LTE multi-antenna circuit and the NR multi-antenna circuit are combined, four combiners are required for four antennas. Although the number of antennas is directly reduced by half, the additional multiple combiners will also greatly increase the circuit layout area and production cost of communication equipment such as mobile phones, which is similar to the reduction of circuit area and production cost through the antenna sharing technology. The purpose is contradictory and cannot meet the actual needs.
方案二:请参阅图5a,图5a是另一种LTE和NR共用天线的电路示意图。如图5a所示,将LTE和NR通过4P4T开关电路和四根天线连接,也能实现天线复用。请参阅图5b,图5b是一种开关状态下的电路连接示意图。如图5b所示,默认状态下,4P4T的开关状态为1-A/2-B/3-C/4-D导通。此时,LTE TX/PRX和NR MIMO PRX通过合路器1,工作在ANT0;LTE DRX和NR MIMO DRX通过合路器2,工作在ANT1;NR TX/PRX工作在ANT2;NR DRX工作在ANT3。Scheme 2: Please refer to FIG. 5a, which is a schematic circuit diagram of another antenna shared by LTE and NR. As shown in Figure 5a, antenna multiplexing can also be achieved by connecting LTE and NR through a 4P4T switch circuit and four antennas. Please refer to FIG. 5b, which is a schematic diagram of circuit connection in a switch state. As shown in Figure 5b, by default, the switch state of 4P4T is 1-A/2-B/3-C/4-D on. At this time, LTE TX/PRX and NR MIMO PRX pass through combiner 1 and work on ANT0; LTE DRX and NR MIMO DRX pass through combiner 2 and work on ANT1; NR TX/PRX works on ANT2; NR DRX works on ANT3 .
该方案二的缺点:方案二虽然也实现了LTE和NR共用四根天线,并且相较于方案一还减少了合路器以及开关的数量。然而方案二中的SRS轮发和LTE天线切换会相互打断,造成性能损失。例如,请参阅图5c,图5c是另一种开关状态下的电路连接示意图。请一并参考图5b和图5c,当NR做SRS天线轮发到ANT0上时,需要将默认状态下的3-C导通切换至3-A导通,从而使得NR TX可以通过ANT0发射SRS信号。然而,如图5c所示,由于NR进行SRS轮发时的天线切换,使得LTE TX由默认状态下的1-A导通,被动切换至1-C导通,被动通过ANT2进行信号发射。如此,LTE不仅需要在切换过程中做TX-blanking(打断),造成性能损失,并且若此时ANT2的天线信号质量较差,会进一步影响用户的使用体验。Disadvantages of the second solution: Although the second solution also realizes that LTE and NR share four antennas, and compared with the first solution, it also reduces the number of combiners and switches. However, the SRS rotation and LTE antenna switching in the second solution will interrupt each other, resulting in performance loss. For example, please refer to FIG. 5c, which is a schematic diagram of circuit connection in another switching state. Please refer to Figure 5b and Figure 5c together. When NR is used as SRS antenna and sent to ANT0, it is necessary to switch 3-C conduction in default state to 3-A conduction, so that NR TX can transmit SRS through ANT0 Signal. However, as shown in Figure 5c, due to the antenna switching when NR performs SRS rotation, the LTE TX is turned on from 1-A in the default state, passively switched to 1-C, and passively transmits signals through ANT2. In this way, LTE not only needs to perform TX-blanking (interruption) during the handover process, resulting in performance loss, and if the quality of the antenna signal of ANT2 is poor at this time, it will further affect the user experience.
综上,上述现有技术中的方案一虽然可以较好的实现LTE和NR共用天线,并且彼此独立,互不影响,保证了LTE的天线切换和NR的SRS轮发的正常进行,但是电路复杂,带来了电路面积增加和生产成本增加的问题;上述方案二虽然简单两个合路器和一个4P4T开关就可以实现LTE和NR共用天线,但是电路简单,LTE和NR之间存在干扰,SRS轮发和LTE天线切换会相互打断,造成性能损失。如此,现有技术中并没有真正很好地解决LTE和NR共用天线面临的工作性能和生产成本问题。因此,为了解决当前LTE和NR的共用天线技术中不满足实际业务需求的问题,本发明实际要解决的技术问题包括如下方面:基于现有的通信设备,通过更加合理的开关选择和电路布局,使得LTE和NR在共用天线的基础上,保证双方均可以进行正常的天线切换和SRS轮发,并进一步减少电路面积和生产成本。To sum up, although the above-mentioned solution 1 in the prior art can better realize the shared antenna of LTE and NR, and is independent of each other and does not affect each other, it ensures the normal operation of antenna switching of LTE and SRS rotation of NR, but the circuit is complicated. , which brings the problems of increased circuit area and increased production cost; although the above-mentioned scheme 2 can realize the shared antenna between LTE and NR by simply two combiners and a 4P4T switch, the circuit is simple, there is interference between LTE and NR, and SRS Round-robin and LTE antenna switching can interrupt each other, causing performance loss. In this way, the existing technology does not really solve the problems of work performance and production cost faced by the shared antenna of LTE and NR. Therefore, in order to solve the problem that the current shared antenna technology of LTE and NR does not meet actual service requirements, the technical problems to be solved by the present invention include the following aspects: based on existing communication equipment, through more reasonable switch selection and circuit layout, On the basis of sharing antennas, LTE and NR ensure that both parties can perform normal antenna switching and SRS rotation, and further reduce circuit area and production costs.

如上所述,在图10a所示的LTE天线选择状态下,若此时发起NR的1T4R SRS,则可以通过控制DP4T401来实现。请参阅图11a-图11d,图11a-图11d是本申请实施例提供的一组SRS轮发的电路示意图。As described above, in the LTE antenna selection state shown in Figure 10a, if 1T4R SRS of NR is initiated at this time, it can be realized by controlling DP4T401. Please refer to FIG. 11a-FIG. 11d. FIG. 11a-FIG. 11d are schematic circuit diagrams of a group of SRS rotation provided by the embodiment of the present application.
SRS1:如图11a所示,控制DP4T401为B-3导通(也即DP4T401中的端口B与端口3导通),此时,NR TX2经由DP4T的端口B、端口3、DPDT303的端口B、端口2与天线ANT4连接。如图11a所示,此时SRS1在ANT4上发射。SRS1: As shown in Figure 11a, control DP4T401 to be B-3 turned on (that is, port B and port 3 in DP4T401 are turned on). At this time, NR TX2 passes through DP4T's port B, port 3, DPDT303's port B, Port 2 is connected to the antenna ANT4. As shown in Figure 11a, SRS1 is now transmitting on ANT4.
SRS2:如图11b所示,控制DP4T401为B-2导通,此时,NR TX2经由DP4T的端口B、端口2、DPDT302的端口B、端口2与天线ANT3连接。如图11b所示,此时SRS2在ANT3上发射。需要说明的是,请一并参考图11a和图11b,若DP4T401的初始状态或者历史状态为A-2导通,则可以通过B-2导通直接覆盖原先的A-2导通,或者如图11b所示,可以切换至A-3导通,等等。可以理解的是,由于NR采取TDD工作模式,因此其发射和接收不同时进行,当NR TX2需要占用通道从而通过对应天线进行SRS轮发时,NR DRX2可以不工作并让出通道。SRS2: As shown in Figure 11b, control DP4T401 to turn on B-2. At this time, NR TX2 is connected to antenna ANT3 via port B, port 2 of DP4T, port B and port 2 of DPDT302. As shown in Figure 11b, SRS2 is transmitting on ANT3 at this time. It should be noted that, please refer to Figure 11a and Figure 11b together, if the initial state or historical state of DP4T401 is A-2 conduction, the original A-2 conduction can be directly covered by B-2 conduction, or as shown in As shown in Figure 11b, it is possible to switch to A-3 on, and so on. It can be understood that since NR adopts the TDD working mode, its transmission and reception are not carried out at the same time. When NR TX2 needs to occupy the channel to perform SRS rotation through the corresponding antenna, NR DRX2 can not work and give up the channel.
SRS3:如图11c所示,控制DP4T401为B-4导通,并同时控制SPDT102为A-1导通,此时,NR TX2经由DP4T的端口B、端口4、SPDT102的端口1、端口A、合路器202的高频端、输出端、DPDT301的端口B、端口2、DPDT303的端口A、端口1与天线ANT2连接。如图11c所示,此时SRS3在ANT2上发射。如上所述,由于NR采取TDD工作模式,因此其发射和接收不同时进行,当NR TX2需要占用通道从而通过对应天线进行SRS轮发时,NR MIMO PRX2可以不工作并让出通道。SRS3: As shown in Figure 11c, control DP4T401 to turn on B-4, and control SPDT102 to turn on A-1.

As shown in Figure 11c, SRS3 is transmitting on ANT2 at this time. As mentioned above, since NR adopts the TDD working mode, its transmission and reception are not performed at the same time. When NR TX2 needs to occupy the channel to perform SRS rotation through the corresponding antenna, NR MIMO PRX2 can not work and give up the channel.
SRS4:如图11d所示,控制DP4T401为B-1导通,并同时控制SPDT101为A-1导通, 此时,NR TX2经由DP4T的端口B、端口1、SPDT101的端口1、端口A、合路器201的高频端、输出端、DPDT301的端口A、端口1、DPDT302的端口A、端口1与天线ANT1连接。如图11d所示,此时SRS4在ANT1上发射。如上所述,由于NR采取TDD工作模式,因此其发射和接收不同时进行,当NR TX2需要占用通道从而通过对应天线进行SRS轮发时,NR MIMO DRX2可以不工作并让出通道。SRS4: As shown in Figure 11d, control DP4T401 to turn on B-1, and control SPDT101 to turn on A-1 at the same time, at this time, NR TX2 passes through DP4T port B, port 1, SPDT101 port 1, port A, The high frequency end, the output end of the combiner 201, the port A and the port 1 of the DPDT301, the port A and the port 1 of the DPDT302 are connected to the antenna ANT1. As shown in Figure 11d, SRS4 is now transmitting on ANT1. As mentioned above, since NR adopts the TDD working mode, its transmission and reception are not performed at the same time. When NR TX2 needs to occupy the channel to perform SRS rotation through the corresponding antenna, NR MIMO DRX2 can not work and give up the channel.

Optionally, developers can also change the order of antennas used in SRS rotation by changing the turn-on sequence of DP4T. For example, if the control DP4T turns on B-1→B-2→B-3→B- 4, then the NR controller can take turns to perform 1T4R SRS rotation on the antennas ANT1→ANT3→ANT4→ANT2, etc. This is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the application, and the same is true for the following Figures 10b-10h, No further description will be given.

Among them, as shown in Figure 16, NR1 TX4 is connected to port 4 of DP4T402, and NR2 TX5 is connected to port 2 of DP4T402. Optionally, as described in the aforementioned explanation of SRS, when the entire radio frequency system (for example, including the radio frequency circuit, switching device and antenna system) works in NSA mode, LTE and NR1 TX2 work, at this time NR1 TX4 and NR2 TX5 Do not work; or, LTE and NR2 TX3 work, at this time NR1 TX4 and NR2 TX5 do not work, so that is equivalent to NR only supports 1T4R SRS rotation, which can be equivalent to the embodiment corresponding to Figure 15. When the entire RF system works in SA mode, NR1 TX2 and NR1 TX4 work, LTE does not work; or, NR2 TX3 and NR2 TX5 work, LTE does not work, so, NR1 and NR2 both support 2T4R SRS rotation. For example, when the entire RF system works in SA mode, and NR1 TX2 and NR1 TX4 work, you can control the port D in the 4P4T601 to turn on port 1, port 2, port 3 and port 4 in a certain order. And by controlling port 4 in DP4T402 to turn on between port A and port B, and by controlling the respective conduction states of DPDT301, DPDT302 and DPDT303, etc., both NR1 TX2 and NR1 TX4 can perform SRS through 4 antennas In order to achieve the first channel of NR (ie NR1) 2T4R specification SRS in rotation, for details, refer to the embodiments corresponding to the above-mentioned FIGS. 10a-10h, which will not be repeated here.
