Description

信道状态信息反馈方法及装置、介质、程序产品
本申请要求于2021年12月30日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202111674328.8、发明名称为“信道状态信息反馈方法及装置、介质、程序产品”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)反馈方法及装置、介质、程序产品。
背景技术
为了充分利用信道在空域频域的稀疏性,提高预编码矩阵指示(precoding matrix indicator,PMI)反馈的精度,近年来提出了一种基于特征子空间的码本。该码本利用长周期的特征子空间波束的线性组合来逼近下行信道或者下行信道的主特征向量。
对于此类码本,终端需要长周期反馈特征子空间波束,以及短周期反馈波束叠加系数。若采用标量量化的方式(把向量的每一个值都反馈给接入网设备)直接长周期反馈特征子空间波束的各元素,反馈开销较大。因此,如何低开销、高精度地反馈长周期特征子空间波束是此类码本的关键问题。
针对特征子空间波束的长周期反馈问题,目前采用的是均匀投影量化方案。如图1所示的特征子空间波束均匀投影量化示意图,将特征子空间波束集合中的各波束近似用一组离散傅里叶变换(discrete Fourier transform,DFT)基向量线性组合表征,其中P表示特征子空间波束的维度,N为特征子空间波束的个数,M为所选DFT基向量的个数。采用该均匀投影量化方案,终端无需直接上报特征子空间波束包含的P*N个元素,仅需上报M个DFT基向量的索引以及M*N个组合系数,能够减少反馈开销。
然而,采用均匀投影量化的方案,每一个特征子空间波束均用同一组DFT基向量投影,所选DFT基向量的个数M相同,对应量化反馈量的比特数相同。实际上,各个特征子空间波束之间是存在能量差异的,在用特征子空间波束线性/双线性组合逼近下行信道或主特征向量时,能量越强的特征子空间波束通常对应的叠加系数越强,此部分波束反馈是否精确对PMI反馈的整体精度影响较大。
有鉴于此,如何低开销、高精度地反馈基于特征子空间波束的信道状态信息,是本申请需要解决的问题。

具体实施方式
下面结合本申请实施例中的附图对本申请实施例进行描述。
本申请提供的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统。本申请提供的技术方案可以应用于第五代(5 thgeneration,5G)通信系统,未来演进系统或多种通信融合系统等中,也可以应用于现有通信系统等。本申请提供的技术方案的应用场景可以包括多种,例如机器对机器(machine to machine,M2M)、宏微通信、增强型移动互联网(enhanced mobile broadband,eMBB)、超高可靠性与超低时延通信(ultra rebiable&low latency communication,uRLLC)以及海量物联网通信(massive machine type communication,mMTC)等场景。这些场景可以包括但不限于:终端与终端之间的通信场景,网络设备与网络设备之间的通信场景,网络设备与终端之间的通信场景等。其中,网络设备包括接入网设备和核心网设备。下文中均是以应用于接入网设备和终端通信的场景中为例进行说明的。
图2是本申请的实施例应用的通信系统1000的架构示意图。如图2所示,该通信系统包括无线接入网100和核心网200,可选的,通信系统1000还可以包括互联网300。其中,无线接入网100可以包括至少一个接入网设备(如图2中的110a和110b),还可以包括至少一个终端(如图2中的120a-120j)。终端通过无线的方式与接入网设备相连,接入网设备通过无线或有线方式与核心网连接。核心网设备与接入网设备可以是独立的不同的物理设备,也可以是将核心网设备的功能与接入网设备的逻辑功能集成在同一个物理设备上,还可以是一个物理设备上集成了部分核心网设备的功能和部分的接入网设备的功能。终端和终端之间以 及接入网设备和接入网设备之间可以通过有线或无线的方式相互连接。图2只是示意图,该通信系统中还可以包括其它网络设备,如还可以包括无线中继设备和无线回传设备,在图2中未画出。
接入网设备可以是基站(base station)、演进型基站(evolved NodeB,eNodeB)、发送接收点(transmission reception point,TRP)、第五代(5th generation,5G)移动通信系统中的下一代基站(next generation NodeB,gNB)、第六代(6th generation,6G)移动通信系统中的下一代基站、未来移动通信系统中的基站或WiFi系统中的接入节点等;也可以是完成接入网设备部分功能的模块或单元,例如,可以是集中式单元(central unit,CU),也可以是分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)。接入网设备可以是宏基站(如图2中的110a),也可以是微基站或室内站(如图2中的110b),还可以是中继节点或施主节点等。本申请的实施例对接入网设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
终端也可以称为终端设备、用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台、移动终端等。终端可以广泛应用于各种场景,例如,设备到设备(device-to-device,D2D)、车物(vehicle to everything,V2X)通信、机器类通信(machine-type communication,MTC)、物联网(internet of things,IOT)、虚拟现实、增强现实、工业控制、自动驾驶、远程医疗、智能电网、智能家具、智能办公、智能穿戴、智能交通、智慧城市等。终端可以是手机、平板电脑、带无线收发功能的电脑、可穿戴设备、车辆、无人机、直升机、飞机、轮船、机器人、机械臂、智能家居设备等。本申请的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。
接入网设备和终端可以是固定位置的,也可以是可移动的。接入网设备和终端可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持或车载;也可以部署在水面上;还可以部署在空中的飞机、气球和人造卫星上。本申请的实施例对接入网设备和终端的应用场景不做限定。
接入网设备和终端的角色可以是相对的,例如,图2中的直升机或无人机120i可以被配置成移动接入网设备,对于那些通过120i接入到无线接入网100的终端120j来说,终端120i是接入网设备;但对于接入网设备110a来说,120i是终端,即110a与120i之间是通过无线空口协议进行通信的。当然,110a与120i之间也可以是通过接入网设备与接入网设备之间的接口协议进行通信的,此时,相对于110a来说,120i也是接入网设备。因此,接入网设备和终端都可以统一称为通信装置,图2中的110a和110b可以称为具有接入网设备功能的通信装置,图2中的120a-120j可以称为具有终端功能的通信装置。
接入网设备和终端之间、接入网设备和接入网设备之间、终端和终端之间可以通过授权频谱进行通信,也可以通过免授权频谱进行通信,也可以同时通过授权频谱和免授权频谱进行通信;可以通过6千兆赫(gigahertz,GHz)以下的频谱进行通信,也可以通过6GHz以上的频谱进行通信,还可以同时使用6GHz以下的频谱和6GHz以上的频谱进行通信。本申请的实施例对无线通信所使用的频谱资源不做限定。
在本申请的实施例中,接入网设备的功能也可以由接入网设备中的模块(如芯片)来执行,也可以由包含有接入网设备功能的控制子系统来执行。这里的包含有接入网设备功能的控制子系统可以是智能电网、工业控制、智能交通、智慧城市等上述应用场景中的控制中心。终端的功能也可以由终端中的模块(如芯片或调制解调器)来执行,也可以由包含有终端功能的装置来执行。
在本申请中,接入网设备向终端发送下行信号或下行信息,下行信息承载在下行信道上;终端向接入网设备发送上行信号或上行信息,上行信息承载在上行信道上。终端为了与接入网设备进行通信,需要与接入网设备控制的小区建立无线连接。与终端建立了无线连接的小 区称为该终端的服务小区。当终端与该服务小区进行通信的时候,还会受到来自邻区的信号的干扰。
5G通信系统对系统容量、频谱效率等方面有了更高的要求。在5G通信系统中,大规模多天线技术(massive MIMO)的应用对提高系统的频谱效率起到了至关重要的作用。当采用MIMO技术时,接入网设备在向终端发送数据前,需要对数据进行预编码。而如何进行预编码,需要依靠用户向接入网设备反馈的CSI,因此准确的CSI反馈信息是影响系统性能的重要因素。
在时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)系统中,由于上行信道和下行信道使用相同的频段,因此具有互易性。接入网设备可以利用信道的互易性,通过上行信道来获取下行信道的CSI,进而进行预编码。
而在频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)系统中,由于上下行频带间的间隔大于带宽,因此上下行信道之间不具有完整的互易性。在传统的FDD系统中,需要用户向接入网设备反馈下行信道的CSI,基本流程如图3所示。在步骤S301中,接入网设备需要先向终端发送信道测量配置信息。该信道测量配置信息用于信道测量的配置,通知终端信道测量的时间及行为。继而,在步骤S302中,接入网设备发送向终端发送导频(reference signal,RS)用于信道测量。在步骤S303中,终端根据接入网设备发送的导频进行测量,进行计算得到最终的CSI反馈量,并向接入网设备反馈CSI。然后,在步骤S304中,接入网设备再根据终端反馈的CSI进行数据发送。其中,接入网设备根据终端反馈的信道秩指示(rank indicator,RI)用于确定给终端传输数据的流数;接入网设备根据终端反馈的信道质量指示(channel quality indicator,CQI)用于确定给终端传输数据的调制阶数,及信道编码的码率;接入网设备根据终端反馈的PMI用于确定给终端传输数据的预编码。
PMI反馈是根据一套码本来确定和上报的,FDD CSI码本的设计是5G通信系统中的一个基本且重要的问题。在新空口(new radio,NR)目前的标准协议中,FDD CSI反馈均以接入网设备侧信息为参考进行信道量化,终端反馈的PMI是根据信道的接入网设备侧发送端的主特征向量确定的。R15 Type II码本采用的是空域(角度)压缩的思想,将主特征向量(即单用户的预编码矩阵)用空域的若干DFT基向量线性组合表征。R16 Type II码本则在R15码本的基础上利用不同子带的幅度和相位系数所具有的频域相关性增加了频域(时延)的压缩,将主特征向量用若干空域DFT基向量和若干频域的DFT基向量双线性组合表征。
为了充分利用信道在空域频域的稀疏性,进一步提高PMI反馈的精度,提出了一种基于特征子空间的码本。该码本利用长周期统计的特征子空间波束的线性组合来逼近下行信道或者下行信道的主特征向量。因此,特征子空间波束又可以称为统计特征子空间波束,是可用于表示信道在空域,或者在频域,或者在空域以及频域的统计变化规律的向量或向量组。通常是通过对信道信息的统计协方差矩阵做特征值分解得到的。该码本可以是类似于R16 Type II码本的空域、频域各用一组特征子空间波束通过双线性组合的形式来表征;也可以是空域频域联合的,用一组空频联合的特征子空间波束线性组合表征,如图4所示。图4中,H为特征子空间波束对应的矩阵,N t表示接入网设备发送端口数,N f表示频域单元数,N t*N f表明该特征子空间波束是空域频域联合的,矩阵H的行向量的维度为N r或者秩(rank)的阶数,N r表示终端接收端口数。
对于此类码本,终端需要长周期反馈特征子空间波束(其长周期上报量为图4中的矩阵B),短周期反馈波束叠加系数(图4中的矩阵C 2)。若采用标量量化的方式(即把矩阵B的每一个值都反馈给接入网设备)直接长周期反馈特征子空间波束的各元素,反馈开销较大。
而采用背景技术中的均匀投影量化方案反馈长周期上报量,特征子空间波束的恢复精度 有限,PMI的精度会受到影响。
针对上述问题,本申请提供一种信道状态信息反馈方案,终端通过根据特征子空间波束的能量差异,将波束集合分为两部分,能量较强的部分波束用更多的DFT基向量线性组合表征,能量较弱的部分波束用更少的DFT基向量线性组合表征,在开销一定的情况下提升波束量化投影的整体精度,进而提高PMI反馈的精度,或者在尽可能少的性能损失的前提下达成降开销的效果。
如图5所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种信道状态信息反馈方法的流程示意图。该方法可以包括以下步骤:
S501.终端获取信道状态信息中的PMI的长周期上报量。其中,该长周期上报量用于确定N个特征子空间波束,N个特征子空间波束包括N 1个特征子空间波束和N 2个特征子空间波束,N 1个特征子空间波束由第一组DFT基向量组合中的M 1个DFT基向量线性组合表征,N 2个特征子空间波束由第二组DFT基向量组合中的M 2个DFT基向量线性组合表征,N、N 1、N 2、M 1、M 2均为正整数,该长周期上报量包括M 1个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 2个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 1个DFT基向量的线性组合系数和M 2个DFT基向量的线性组合系数。
假设有N个特征子空间波束,每个特征子空间波束的维度为P×1。特征子空间波束之间一般存在能量差异,本实施例中,将N个特征子空间波束分为至少两组。示例性地,将N个特征子空间波束分为两组:第一组波束包括能量较强的N 1个特征子空间波束,第二组波束包括能量较弱的N 2个特征子空间波束。
在示例A中,将N 1个特征子空间波束采用第一组DFT基向量组合中的M 1个DFT基向量线性组合表征,以及将N 2个特征子空间波束由第二组DFT基向量组合中的M 2个DFT基向量线性组合表征。其中,N、N 1、N 2、M 1、M 2均为正整数。且M 1>M 2。通过波束分组的方式实现非均匀量化,可以提升波束量化投影的整体精度。
该N个特征子空间波束对应的DFT基向量全集包括P个DFT基向量,该第一组DFT基向量组合包含P个DFT基向量中的M 1个DFT基向量。该第二组DFT基向量组合包含P个DFT基向量或M 1个DFT基向量中M 2个DFT基向量。因此,得到该长周期上报量包括M 1个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 2个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 1个DFT基向量的线性组合系数和M 2个DFT基向量的线性组合系数。
在示例B中,也可以是第一组波束包括能量较弱的N 1个特征子空间波束,第二组波束包括能量较强的N 2个特征子空间波束,将N 1个特征子空间波束采用第一组DFT基向量组合中的M 1个DFT基向量线性组合表征,以及将N 2个特征子空间波束由第二组DFT基向量组合中的M 2个DFT基向量线性组合表征,则M 1<M 2
该N个特征子空间波束对应的DFT基向量全集包括P个DFT基向量,该第一组DFT基向量组合包含P个DFT基向量或M 2个DFT基向量中的M 1个DFT基向量。该第二组DFT基向量组合包含P个DFT基向量中的M 2个DFT基向量。因此,得到该长周期上报量包括M 1个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 2个DFT基向量的指示信息、M 1个DFT基向量的线性组合系数和M 2个DFT基向量的线性组合系数。
下文的描述均以示例A为例进行描述。示例B的具体实现可参考示例A的实现,本申请不再赘述。
S502.终端向接入网设备发送PMI的长周期上报量。
相应地,接入网设备接收该长周期上报量。
终端获取了PMI的长周期上报量之后,向接入网设备发送PMI的长周期上报量。
由于终端根据特征子空间波束的能量差异,将波束集合分为两组,能量较强的部分波束用更多的DFT基向量线性组合表征,能量较弱的部分波束用更少的DFT基向量线性组合表征,因此,在开销一定的情况下,可以提升波束量化投影的整体精度,进而提高PMI反馈的精度,或者在尽可能少的性能损失的前提下达成降开销的效果。
S503.接入网设备根据长周期上报量,恢复N个特征子空间波束。
接入网设备接收终端发送的PMI的长周期上报量,根据该长周期上报量,可以恢复N个特征子空间波束。
根据本申请实施例提供的一种信道状态信息反馈方法,终端通过根据特征子空间波束的能量差异,将波束集合分为两部分,能量较强的部分波束用更多的DFT基向量线性组合表征,能量较弱的部分波束用更少的DFT基向量线性组合表征,在开销一定的情况下提升波束量化投影的整体精度,进而提高PMI反馈的精度,或者在尽可能少的性能损失的前提下达成降开销的效果。
如图6所示,为本申请实施例提供的另一种信道状态信息反馈方法的流程示意图。该方法可以包括以下步骤:
S601.接入网设备向终端发送第一投影量化信息。该第一投影量化信息包括以下至少一项:第一特征子空间波束分组信息、第一DFT基向量选择范围信息、第一DFT基向量个数信息。
相应地,终端接收该第一投影量化信息。
终端在确定PMI的长周期上报量时,需要将N个特征子空间波束进行非均匀投影量化。终端需要根据投影量化信息,进行非均匀投影量化,以确定上述长周期上报量。
本实施例中,可以由接入网设备配置该投影量化信息。具体地,接入网设备向终端发送第一投影量化信息,终端接收该第一投影量化信息。该第一投影量化信息包括以下至少一项:第一特征子空间波束分组信息、第一DFT基向量选择范围信息、第一DFT基向量个数信息。示例性地,接入网设备可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令、介质接入控制-控制元素(medium access control-control element,MAC-CE)、下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)等中的一种或多种发送上述第一投影量化信息。
在另外的实施例中,终端也可以向接入网设备上报投影量化信息。具体地,终端向接入网设备发送第二投影量化信息,接入网设备接收该第二投影量化信息。该第二投影量化信息包括以下至少一项:第二特征子空间波束分组信息、第二DFT基向量选择范围信息、第二DFT基向量个数信息。其中,第二投影量化信息所包括的信息可以是对第一投影量化信息的补充。第二投影量化信息中各信息的含义与第一投影量化信息相同。在下文的描述中,将穿插描述第二投影量化信息。
