具体实施方式
为使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚明白，下文中将结合附图对本申请的实施方式进行详细说明。需要说明的是，在不冲突的情况下，本申请中的实施方式及实施方式中的特征可以相互任意组合。
图1示出本申请的地对空无线通信系统的组成结构示意图。如图1所示，地对空(Air To Ground，ATG)无线通信系统包括如下设备：核心网设备101、互联网设备102、基站104和机载终端103。
其中，基站104是地面基站，机载终端103是安装在飞机上的终端。基站104不仅需要与机载终端103进行通信，还需要与飞机上 的乘客所使用的智能终端(例如，智能手机、平板电脑等)进行通信。
在基站104与飞机上的乘客所使用的智能终端进行通信时，是通过安装在飞机上的机载行动热点(Wi-Fi)设备与飞机上的乘客所使用的智能终端进行通信的，此时的机载Wi-Fi设备需要承载，通信压力过大。并且，飞机的运动时速可达800～1200Km/h，属于超高速运动的交通工具，飞机上的乘客无法获得优质的通信服务。
在飞机上的多个乘客都使用移动数据下载或上传的情况下，单个乘客无法获得期望的带宽资源，为了满足各个乘客的带宽需求，需要增加ATG无线通信系统的带宽，或，使机载终端103与基站104之间尽可能采用多流传输。但是，带宽资源是极其宝贵的资源，不可能都使用在ATG无线通信系统这种专网系统中；而机载终端103与基站104之间多采用视距(Line Of Sight，LOS)径进行通信信号的传输，其中，LOS径表示机载终端103与基站104之间存在一个清楚的、没有阻塞的通信信道，机载终端103可以直接接收到基站104发送的通信信号。由于该LOS径对应的通信信道的特殊性，导致基于LOS径的通信信道无法支持多流传输。如何提升对空覆盖等LOS径占优环境中的单用户数据流数及数据速率是亟待解决的问题。
本申请的第一方面提供一种信息传输方法。图2示出本申请提供的信息传输方法的流程示意图。该信息传输方法可应用于反射设备。如图2所示，本申请的信息传输方法可以包括以下步骤S201和S202。
在步骤S201，获取基站发送的通信信息。
其中，通信信息使用通信信号进行承载。该通信信息包括：广播信息、信道状态信息、下行控制信息和下行业务信息中的任意一种或几种。

其中，每个待使用反射单元可以是低成本的无源反射元件，也可以是有源反射元件。不同的反射元件对应的反射权值不同。
通过机载终端的位置信息和当前设备的位置信息，可确定出机载终端相对于反射设备的具体方位(例如，相对位置信息(例如，幅度信息)和/或相对角度信息(例如，相位信息)等)，进而根据该具体方位，能够确定某个反射单元是否适合用作目标反射单元，该目标反射单元需要满足预设反射条件(例如，该目标反射单元的反射角度满足机载终端相对于反射设备的相对角度信息，和/或，该目标反射单元的位置更方便发送反射信号给机载终端等)。
进一步地，目标反射单元可以是多个，依据目标反射单元对应的反射权值(或者说是目标反射单元的反射权值)，确定控制信息，包括：依据多个目标反射单元对应的反射权值，对多个目标反射单元进行排序，获得排序结果，例如，将反射权值增益最大的目标反射单元作为最终的目标反射单元，并依据该最终的目标反射单元对应的反射权值，确定控制信息。采用一个反射权值增益最大的目标反射单元作为最终的目标反射单元，可提高控制信息的准确性。

在步骤S402，发送通信信号至反射设备。
在确定反射设备接收到通信信号的情况下，反射设备依据反射设备的反射权值，通过与反射权值对应的波束将通信信号反射至机载终端，反射权值是目标传输信道对应的波束的反射权值，目标传输信道是反射设备与机载终端之间的传输信道。
在一个示例性实施方式中，在发送通信信号至反射设备之前，所述方法还包括：获取控制信息，控制信息配置用于调整目标传输信道对应的波束的反射权值，目标传输信道是反射设备与机载终端之间的传输信道；将控制信息传输至反射设备。
其中，反射设备会根据控制信息对其与机载终端之间的目标传输信道对应的波束的反射权值进行调整，保证目标传输信道对应的波 束的角度能够满足传输需求(例如，目标传输信道对应的波束的角度可以准确对应机载终端，使机载终端能够准确接收到反射设备发送的通信信息)，提升通信信息的传输准确性。
在本申请中，通过将获取到的控制信息和通信信息传输至反射设备，使反射设备根据该控制信息调整目标传输信道对应的波束的反射权值，以使反射设备使用目标传输信道快速准确的将通信信息传输给机载终端，保证机载终端能够准确接收到通信信息。在基站和机载终端之间增加反射设备，通过增加反射设备，增加了基站和机载终端之间的通信路径，从而增加了基站发送至机载终端的并发数据流数，使对空覆盖的无线通信系统能够支持多流传输，提高终端的通信速率。
在一些示例性实施方式中，获取控制信息，包括：获取反射设备的位置信息和机载终端的位置信息；依据机载终端的位置信息和反射设备的位置信息，确定控制信息。
其中，机载终端的位置信息和反射设备的位置信息可以采用经纬度信息表示，能够准确的表征出机载终端与反射设备之间的相对位置，进而根据该相对位置确定控制信息，保证反射设备能够根据该控制信息，准确的调整其与机载终端之间的目标传输信道，提升通信信息的传输准确性。

其中，信道状态信息用于表征通信链路的信道属性。信道状态信息包括：通信信号在每条传输信道上的衰弱因子。基站通过信道状态信息的参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signal，CSI-RS)端口、以及发射波束所指向的反射设备，使终端可以获取更准确的信道估计。
在一些示例性实施方式中，目标传输信道包括：基于机载终端的第一波束确定的信道，或，基于机载终端的第二波束确定的信道，第一波束的波束宽度小于第二波束的波束宽度。
其中，波束宽度包括：水平波束宽度和/或垂直波束宽度。预设宽度阈值包括：半功率宽度。
通过基于机载终端的第一波束确定的信道，或，基于机载终端的第二波束确定的信道作为目标传输信道，使用该目标传输信道传输机载终端与基站之间的通信信息，可以增加机载终端与基站之间的并发数据流数，使对空覆盖的无线通信系统能够支持多流传输，提高终端的通信速率。
在一些示例性实施方式中，在将控制信息传输至反射设备之后，所述方法还包括：在确定目标传输信道是基于机载终端的第二波束确定的信道的情况下，采用最大比合并原则对目标传输信道传输的信息进行处理，获得响应信息；其中，响应信息是反射设备转发的机载终端针对通信信息反馈的响应信息。
其中，最大比合并原则是基站根据接收到的接收信号的强弱，确定各个接收信号对应的权值，并对各个接收信号进行加权合并处理，使处理后的接收信号更清晰，保证通过处理后的接收信号可以获得更完整的响应信息。
例如，第二波束可以是全向天线对应的波束，该全向天线的发射能量不仅作用于机载终端与基站之间的LOS径，还可以作用于该机载终端与其他反射设备之间的NLOS径。此时，基站可以根据各个反射设备对应的反射能量的大小，采用最大比合并原则，对目标传输信道传输的信息进行处理，以使获得的机载终端发送的响应信息更完整。

其中，反射设备可以是有源设备，配置为执行第一方面的信息传输方法；也可以是无源设备，通过不同的反射权值将接收到的基站720发送的通信信息转发给机载终端730。机载终端730可以是飞机、无人机或其他对空覆盖系统所支持的终端。基站720可以是地面基站。
基站720通过CSI-RS对应的端口，发送控制信息给反射设备710，以使反射设备710根据该控制信息调整指向反射设备710的波束的角度，使反射设备710能够准确的将基站发送的通信信息转发给机载终端730。保证机载终端730获取更准确的信道估计、信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator，CQI)、秩指示(Rank Indication，RI)和预编码矩阵指示(Precoding Matrix Indicator，PMI)等信息。
其中，CQI用于衡量反映物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel，PDSCH)的信道质量。例如，用0～15来表示PDSCH的信道质量。0表示信道质量最差，15表示信道质量最好。如果PDSCH的信道质量好，基站720就可以传输较多的数据给机载终端730；否则，如果PDSCH的信道质量差，基站720就只能少传输一些数据给机载终端730。RI用于指示PDSCH的有效的数据层数。通过机载终端730上报的RI，基站720可以获知机载终端730支持的码字(Code Word，CW)的数量。例如，当RI等于1时，表示机载终端730可支持1个CW；当RI大于1时，表示机载终端730可支持2个CW。PMI用于指示码本集合的索引。通过机载终端730上报的PMI，可确定PDSCH所传输的通信信号是否是最优的信号。

需要说明的是，N个反射设备既可以包括有源设备，又可以包括无源设备。其中，无源设备表示反射设备不能自动调整其与机载终端730之间的反射权值。在进行安装时，无源的反射设备的安装位置是通过预设的网络规划参数确定的位置，该安装位置包括安装角度信息、安装高度信息、以及该无源的反射设备与基站720之间的距离信息中的任意一种或几种。此时，该无源的反射设备可以采用波束宽度大于或等于预设宽度阈值的波束(即，宽波束)，提高机载终端730接收通信信息的概率。

有源设备表示反射设备可以根据基站720发送的控制信息，自动调整其与机载终端730之间的目标传输信道对应的波束的反射权值，以使该反射设备转发的通信信息顺利到达机载终端730，提升机载终端730的信号质量。
在一个示例性实施方式中，基站720会产生固定发射角度的波束，以使该波束的角度与其周围的反射设备相对应，保证基站720发送的控制信息和通信信息能够准确的传输至各个反射设备。
其中，各个反射设备转发给机载终端730的下行信息仅是通信信息，不包括基站720发送给各个反射设备的控制信息。而机载终端730通过各个不同的下行传输信道，接收基站720发送的通信信息。

如图9所示，机载终端730所使用的天线是全向天线，该全向天线对应的波束是宽波束(即，该全向天线对应的波束的波束宽度大于或等于预设宽度阈值)。该全向天线的发射能量不仅作用于机载终端730与基站720之间的LOS径，还可以作用于该机载终端730与其他反射设备之间的NLOS径(即，机载终端730和基站720之间存在多个反射设备，阻挡了机载终端730和基站720之间的通信信号)。此时，基站720可以根据各个反射设备对应的反射能量的大小，采用最大比合并原则，对接收到的信号进行处理，以使获得的机载终端730发送的通信信息更完整。
其中，最大比合并原则是根据接收到的接收信号的强弱，确定各个接收信号对应的权值，并对各个接收信号进行加权合并处理，使处理后的接收信号更清晰，保证通过处理后的接收信号可以获得更完整的通信信息。
如图10所示，机载终端730所使用的天线是可调整方向的定向天线，则该定向天线对应的波束是窄波束(即，该定向天线对应的波束的波束宽度小于预设宽度阈值)。该定向天线的主要发射能量作用于机载终端730与基站720之间的LOS径，以使机载终端730发送的上行通信信息更准确的到达基站720。
通过使用全向天线或方向可调的定向天线作为机载终端730的天线，增加了机载终端730和基站720之间的并发数据流数，提升了终端的通信速率。

在一个示例性实施方式中，信息传输系统中的基站720可以基于信道状态信息进行下行通信信号的传输。图12示出本申请提供的信息传输系统中的基于信道状态信息进行下行通信信号的传输的流程示意图。
其中，信道状态信息用于表征通信链路的信道属性。信道状态信息包括：通信信号在每条传输信道上的衰弱因子。例如，信号散射(Scattering)信息、环境衰弱(fading，multipath fading or shadowing fading)信息和距离衰减(power decay of distance)信息中的任意一种或几种。
在多天线系统中，基站720可发送多个波束。如图12所示，基站720发送的波束包括：第一信道状态波束751、第二信道状态波束 752、第三信道状态波束753和第四信道状态波束754。通过各个信道状态波束传输的信道状态信息，可以保证通信的可靠性。
基站720基于信道状态信息的参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signal，CSI-RS)对应的端口，使不同的发射波束指向不同的反射设备。例如，使第三信道状态波束753对应第一反射设备711，或，使第四信道状态波束754对应第二反射设备712等，使终端获取更准确的信道估计。
图13示出本申请提供的信息传输系统中的基于有源RIS进行下行信息的传输的流程示意图。如图13所示，基站720与第一机载终端731和第二机载终端732通过如下方式进行下行通信。
首先，基站720发送第一控制信号7631至第一反射设备711，以使第一反射设备711根据该第一控制信号7631调整其与第一机载终端731之间的发射角度。同时，基站720发送第二控制信号7632至第二反射设备712，以使第二反射设备712根据该第二控制信号7632调整其与第二机载终端732之间的发射角度。
在一个示例性实施方式中，基站720可以通过WIFI或4G通信网络中的通信信道，传输第一控制信号7631和/或第二控制信号7632。
其次，基站720采用TDD通信方式，在第一时刻使用第一时刻的时分复用波束7611，发送第一下行通信信息；在第二时刻使用第二时刻的时分复用波束7621，发送第二下行通信信息。
在第一反射设备711接收到第一下行通信信息的情况下，第一反射设备711使用第一时刻的时分复用转发波束76111转发该第一下行通信信息至第一机载终端731；在第一反射设备711接收到第二下行通信信息的情况下，第一反射设备711使用第二时刻的时分复用转发波束76211转发该第二下行通信信息至第一机载终端731。
在第二反射设备712接收到第一下行通信信息的情况下，第二反射设备712使用第一时刻的时分复用转发波束76112转发该第一下行通信信息至第二机载终端732；在第二反射设备712接收到第二下行通信信息的情况下，第二反射设备712使用第二时刻的时分复用转发波束76212转发该第二下行通信信息至第二机载终端732。
通过第一反射设备和第二反射设备在不同时刻转发基站发送的不同的下行通信信息至机载终端，使机载终端能够通过多个传输通道接收到基站发送的下行通信信息，能够增加基站发送至机载终端的并发数据流数，使该信息传输系统可以支持多流传输，提高终端的通信速率。
图14示出本申请提供的信息传输系统中的基于有源RIS进行上行信息的传输的流程示意图。如图14所示，第一机载终端731使用的第三上行反馈波束773和第二机载终端732使用的第四上行反馈波束774，可以是基于指向性天线(例如，方向可调的定向天线)对应的波束，也可以是基于非指向性天线(例如，全向天线)对应的波束。
其中，方向可调的定向天线对应的波束的波束宽度，与全向天线对应的波束的波束宽度不同。若某个反射设备的下行传输信道是基于方向可调的定向天线对应的波束确定的信道，则其上行传输信道也需要基于方向可调的定向天线对应的波束确定的信道。同样的，若某个反射设备的下行传输信道是基于全向天线对应的波束确定的信道，则其上行传输信道也需要基于全向天线对应的波束确定的信道，使上行传输信道的信道增益(例如，上行信道的衰落情况)得到改善。
如图14所示，第一机载终端731和第二机载终端732与基站720通过如下方式进行上行通信。
第一机载终端731可以通过第三上行反馈波束773发送第一上行反馈信息至基站720，也可以通过第一反射设备711使用第一上行反馈波束771，将其接收到的第一机载终端731发送的第一上行反馈信息转发给基站720。基站720通过多个不同的传输信道获得第一机载终端731发送的第一上行反馈信息，能够提升接收到的信号质量，保证接收到的第一上行反馈信息的完整性和准确性。
同样的，第二机载终端732可以通过第四上行反馈波束774发送第二上行反馈信息至基站720，也可以通过第二反射设备712使用第二上行反馈波束772，将其接收到的第二机载终端732发送的第二上行反馈信息转发给基站720。基站720通过多个不同的传输信道获得第二机载终端732发送的第二上行反馈信息，能够提升接收到的信 号质量，保证接收到的第二上行反馈信息的完整性和准确性。
在一个示例性实施方式中，信息传输系统是基于4G的频分双工(Frequency Division Duplexing，FDD)对空覆盖无线通信系统。其中，信息传输系统包括：三个无源的反射设备(即，第三反射设备713、第四反射设备714和第五反射设备715)、基站720、第一机载终端731和第二机载终端732。
图15示出本申请提供的信息传输系统中的基于无源RIS进行下行信息的传输的流程示意图。如图15所示，基站720分别与第三反射设备713、第四反射设备714和第五反射设备715相对应，每个无源的反射设备都采用波束宽度大于或等于预设宽度阈值的波束(即，宽波束)。
基站720使用第一下行发送波束781采用广播的方式发送下行信息，以使第一机载终端731和第二机载终端732能够获取到该下行信息。其中，下行信息包括同步信息和/或下行广播信息，第一下行发送波束是与物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel，PDSCH)对应的波束。
在确定第三反射设备713接收到基站720发送的下行信息的情况下，第三反射设备713使用第二下行发送波束782转发该下行信息至第一机载终端731；在确定第四反射设备714接收到基站720发送的下行信息的情况下，第四反射设备714使用第三下行发送波束783转发该下行信息至第二机载终端732；在确定第五反射设备715接收到基站720发送的下行信息的情况下，第五反射设备715使用第四下行发送波束784转发该下行信息至第二机载终端732。
通过多个无源的反射设备转发基站发送的下行信息，能够增加机载终端接收到的数据流数，使基于4G的FDD对空覆盖无线通信系统能够支持多流传输，提高终端的通信速率。
图16示出本申请提供的信息传输系统中的基于无源RIS进行上行信息的传输的流程示意图。其中，各个机载终端都可以采用方向可调的定向天线，各个反射设备可以使用每个无源的反射设备都采用波束宽度大于或等于预设宽度阈值的波束(即，宽波束)。
如图16所示，第一机载终端731使用第二上行发送波束792发送第一上行信息给基站720，第二机载终端732使用第四上行发送波束794发送第二上行信息给基站720。
在确定第三反射设备713接收到第一机载终端731发送的第一上行信息的情况下，第三反射设备713使用第一上行发送波束791转发该第一上行信息至基站720；因此，基站720接收到的第一上行信息是通过两个不同的传输信道(即，第一机载终端731与基站720之间的LOS径传输信道，以及第一机载终端731、第三反射设备713和基站720构成的NLOS径传输信道)获得的信息，增加了基站720与第一机载终端731之间的数据流数。
在确定第四反射设备714接收到第二机载终端732发送的第二上行信息的情况下，第四反射设备714使用第三上行发送波束793转发该第二上行信息至基站720；在确定第五反射设备715接收到第二机载终端732发送的第二上行信息的情况下，第五反射设备715使用第五上行发送波束795转发该第二上行信息至基站720。
因此，基站720接收到的第二上行信息是通过3个不同的传输信道(即，第二机载终端732与基站720之间的LOS径传输信道，以及第二机载终端732、第四反射设备714和基站720构成的NLOS径传输信道，以及第二机载终端732、第五反射设备715和基站720构成的NLOS径传输信道)获得的信息，增加了基站720与第二机载终端732之间的数据流数，使基站720的上行传输信道的信道增益(例如，上行信道的衰落情况)得到改善。
