technical field

Background technique

In distributed ultra-large-scale Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems, the construction of cooperative clusters is very important. At present, the coordination clusters are usually divided according to the geographic location distribution of the base stations. After the division, the coordination nodes in the coordination clusters will perform cooperative transmission, and the coordination nodes in the coordination clusters are fixed and will not change. In this case, because the division of the cooperative clusters is not considered from the terminal point of view, for example, as the height of the terminal increases, the original cooperative cluster will be severely interfered by other non-cooperative nodes, which will cause the terminal to fail to obtain better communication services in scenarios where the height of the terminal changes.

Apparently, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second" and so on are usually of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, there can be one or more first objects. In addition, "and/or" in the specification and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally means that the related objects are an "or" relationship.

The information reporting and receiving methods, devices, terminals, and network-side equipment provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Please refer to FIG. 1 . FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an information reporting method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a terminal, such as a device whose height or altitude can be changed, such as a drone. As shown in Figure 1, the method includes the following steps:

Step 11: Determine the first information.

In this embodiment, the above-mentioned first information may include: signal measurement results of the terminal, and altitude information or altitude measurement results of the terminal. Wherein, the signal measurement result may include at least one of the following: Reference Signal Received Power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ), Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, SINR), etc. That is, the signal measurement result may include one or more of RSRP, RSRQ and SINR.

In some embodiments, the terminal can sense real-time location information by integrating an inertial measurement unit, a global positioning system (Global Positioning System, GPS), etc., and obtain and report altitude information or altitude measurement results of the terminal.

In some embodiments, the above altitude information may include relative altitude information or absolute altitude information. For absolute altitude information, optional altitude information.

Step 12: Send the first information.

In this embodiment, the first information is used by the network-side device to determine the cooperation cluster of the terminal, that is, through joint reporting, the network-side device can determine the signal measurement result of the terminal and information such as altitude/elevation, and provide a basis for selecting a cooperation cluster. The coordination cluster may include a plurality of coordination nodes, which are used for the coordinated transmission service to the terminal in an interference environment. The primary serving node may include a primary serving base station.

In some embodiments, the network side device may be a master serving node or a master serving base station.

In some embodiments, the terminal may receive a cooperative transmission instruction sent by a network-side device such as a main service node, and receive data services of a corresponding cooperative cluster.

In some embodiments, when the terminal sends the first information, it may report by event triggering or periodically, which is not limited. The event that triggers the sending of the first information can be set based on the actual situation, such as a preset value for the height of the terminal to rise or fall.

In the information reporting method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal can determine the first information and send the first information; the first information includes: the signal measurement result of the terminal, and the altitude information or altitude measurement result of the terminal; the first information is used by the network side device to determine the cooperation cluster of the terminal. In this way, the cooperation cluster of the terminal can be dynamically determined in combination with the signal measurement result of the terminal and the altitude information or the altitude measurement result, so that the terminal can obtain better communication services. Furthermore, it can also be applied to a scenario where the height or altitude of the terminal changes, so that the terminal can also obtain better communication services when the height or altitude changes.

Scenarios applicable to embodiments of the present disclosure may include, but not limited to, scenarios where terminal height or altitude changes, such as UAV application scenarios, where the determined cooperation cluster is applicable to cooperative transmission services for UAVs in an interference environment.

For UAV application scenarios, as the flight altitude rises, the "visible" interference nodes of UAVs will gradually increase. As shown in Figure 2, the main serving base station will be severely interfered by signals, which will affect its communication performance. In this case, since the number of interference nodes increases with the flight altitude, the scheme in this disclosure can be used to jointly report the UAV RSRP/RSRQ/SINR and the UAV height/altitude information, so that the main service node combines the UAV height/elevation information, and quickly builds/determines a cooperative cluster jointly with several nodes to further improve the mobile communication performance of the UAV during flight.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to realize joint information reporting of the terminal, the terminal may receive first configuration information from the network side device; wherein, the first configuration information is used to configure measurement parameters of the terminal; the measurement parameters include: signal measurement, and height information or height measurement. The signal measurement quantity may include but not limited to one or more of RSRP, RSRQ and SINR.

For example, the main serving node may configure a radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) connected terminal such as RRC_CONNECTED UE to perform measurement, and report information according to the measurement configuration. Measurement configuration information (that is, the above-mentioned first configuration information) can be sent through an RRC reconfiguration message, and the following measurement parameters of the terminal can be configured: one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and SINR, combined with altitude information or altitude measurement.

Optionally, the terminal may receive second configuration information from the network side device; where the second configuration information is used to configure the measurement node list of the terminal. Afterwards, the terminal can perform signal measurement on the nodes in the measurement node list, and obtain corresponding signal measurement results. In this way, signal measurement is performed based on the configured measurement node list, which can improve the efficiency of signal measurement.

In some embodiments, the network side device may adjust the measurement node list of the terminal in real time according to factors such as the terminal location and channel environment changes.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the measurement report is generated based on the first information, the first information is sent through the measurement report. For terminals that need to obtain and report altitude information or altitude measurement results, a new measurement report format needs to be defined so that the first information carried in the measurement report can include terminal altitude information or altitude measurement results in addition to measurement quantities such as RSRP, RSRQ, and/or SINR.

In some embodiments, when reporting the first information based on the measurement report, a number of bits may be used to quantify the signal measurement result, and a number of bits may be used to quantize the height/elevation information.

Taking RSRP and height information h as an example, it may be a joint report of RSRP bit information and height bit information: (RSRP, h). RSRP quantization information can use 8 bits, RSRP-Range::=INTEGER(0..127), corresponding to different RSRP ranges; h quantization information can use 2 bits, h-Range::=INTEGER(0..3), respectively corresponding to different height ranges. For example, the h measurement report mapping table may be shown in Table 1 below, but this embodiment of the disclosure is not limited thereto.

Table 1

Please refer to FIG. 3 . FIG. 3 is a flow chart of an information receiving method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a network side device, such as a master serving node or a master serving base station. As shown in Figure 3, the method includes the following steps:

Step 31: Receive first information from the terminal.

In this embodiment, the first information may include: signal measurement results of the terminal, and altitude information or altitude measurement results of the terminal. Wherein, the signal measurement result may include at least one of the following: RSRP, RSRQ, SINR, and the like. That is, the signal measurement result may include one or more of RSRP, RSRQ and SINR.

In some embodiments, the terminal can sense real-time location information by fusing the inertial measurement unit, GPS, etc., and obtain and report the altitude information or altitude measurement results of the terminal.

Step 32: Determine the cooperation cluster of the terminal according to the first information.

Understandably, through the joint reporting of terminals, network-side devices such as the main service node can obtain terminal signal measurement results and information such as altitude/elevation, which provides a basis for the selection of cooperative clusters. The coordination cluster of the terminal may include a plurality of coordination nodes, which are used for the coordinated transmission service to the terminal in an interference environment.

In some embodiments, the terminal may receive the coordinated transmission instruction sent by the master serving node, and receive the data service of the corresponding coordinated cluster.

In the information reporting method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network side device may receive the first information from the terminal, and determine the cooperation cluster of the terminal according to the first information. In this way, the cooperation cluster of the terminal can be dynamically determined in combination with the signal measurement result of the terminal and the altitude information or the altitude measurement result, so that the terminal can obtain better communication services. Furthermore, it can also be applied to a scenario where the height or altitude of the terminal changes, so that the terminal can also obtain better communication services when the height or altitude changes.

Optionally, the manner of determining the cooperation cluster of the terminal according to the first information may include but not limited to at least one of the following:

Way 1: According to the pre-configured cooperation cluster information table, determine the cooperation cluster corresponding to the signal measurement result and height information or height measurement result of the terminal.

Wherein, the pre-configured cooperative cluster information table represents the cooperative clusters under different signal measurement results and different height information, that is, represents the mapping relationship between the signal measurement results and height information and the cooperative cluster information.

Optionally, the aforementioned cooperative cluster information table may be pre-configured locally on the network side device, and may also be adjusted in real time according to factors such as load and channel environment changes. For example, the current RSRP of a certain cooperative node is very low, and the cooperative cluster corresponding to the corresponding height may be removed, or the current load of a certain cooperative node is high, and the cooperative cluster corresponding to the corresponding height may be removed.

In some embodiments, taking RSRP and height information h as an example, cooperation clusters under different RSRPs and h may be shown in Table 2 below, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

Table 2

In this way, after receiving the (RSRP, h) information reported by the terminal, the main service node can quickly determine the cooperative cluster ID and the corresponding cooperative node in combination with Table 2.

Method 2: Use a preset cooperative cluster selection algorithm to determine a cooperative cluster corresponding to the signal measurement result and height information or height measurement result of the terminal.

Wherein, the preset cooperative cluster selection algorithm may be set based on actual requirements, which is not limited. For example, taking RSRP and height information h as an example, it can be: when RSRP is greater than the preset value TH1, consider cooperative nodes 1, 2, and 3, and according to h greater than the preset value H1, consider cooperative nodes 2, 3, and 4, and take the union to form cooperative clusters 2, 3.

Optionally, after determining the cooperation cluster of the terminal, the network side device can send/feedback the information of the cooperation cluster to the terminal, such as coordination node reference signal configuration, etc., so that the terminal knows its corresponding cooperation cluster, so as to better receive data services of the cooperation cluster.

In some embodiments, the information of the corresponding cooperative cluster may be sent to the terminal through a broadcast message.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, network-side devices such as the main serving node and the coordinating nodes in the cooperative cluster are not static, and the possible main serving nodes and/or cooperating nodes can be updated according to the signal measurement results and height/elevation information reported by the terminal, that is, the update of the dynamic cooperating cluster can be performed. For example, due to the increase in vertical height, limited by the pitch angle, the vertical beam of the original main service node may not be able to cover the UAV at the current height position. Therefore, the original main service node needs to determine whether to switch the main service node according to the measurement report of the UAV, and remove the cooperation nodes that cannot currently cover the UAV, and add nodes with better coverage, that is, update the dynamic cooperation cluster.

Optionally, after determining the cooperative cluster of the terminal, the network side device may delete one or more cooperative nodes from the determined cooperative cluster according to first information sent by the terminal, such as signal measurement results and height information or height measurement results, and/or, add one or more non-cooperative nodes to the cooperative cluster. For example, a cooperative node that cannot currently cover a terminal may be deleted from the cooperative cluster, and/or a non-cooperative node with good coverage performance may be added to the cooperative cluster. Wherein, for a cooperative node that cannot cover the terminal, it may be that the signal measurement result of the cooperative node, such as RSRP/RSRQ/SINR, is lower than or equal to a certain preset value; for a non-cooperative node with good coverage performance, it may be that the signal measurement result of the non-cooperative node, such as RSRP/RSRQ/SINR, is higher than or equal to a certain preset value, which is not limited.

Optionally, if the service of the current network-side device cannot cover the terminal, for example, the signal measurement result of the current network-side device such as RSRP/RSRQ/SINR is lower than or equal to a certain preset value, the network-side device can be switched to ensure communication services for the terminal.

Optionally, in order to realize the joint information reporting of the terminal, the network side device may send the first configuration information to the terminal; wherein the first configuration information is used to configure the measurement parameters of the terminal; the measurement parameters include: signal measurement, and, altitude information or altitude measurement. The signal measurement quantity may include but not limited to one or more of RSRP, RSRQ and SINR.

For example, the network side device can configure RRC_CONNECTED UE to perform measurement and report information according to the measurement configuration. The measurement configuration information (that is, the above-mentioned first configuration information) can be sent through an RRC reconfiguration message, and the following measurement parameters of the terminal can be configured: one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and SINR, combined with height information.

Optionally, the network side device may send second configuration information to the terminal; where the second configuration information is used to configure the measurement node list of the terminal. Afterwards, the terminal can perform signal measurement on the nodes in the measurement node list, and obtain corresponding signal measurement results. In this way, signal measurement is performed based on the configured measurement node list, which can improve the efficiency of signal measurement.

The following uses an application scenario of an unmanned aerial vehicle as an example to describe the process of determining a cooperative cluster in the embodiment of the present disclosure. The specific process can be:

S1: Measurement configuration: The master serving node configures RRC_CONNECTED UE to perform measurement and report according to the measurement configuration; wherein, the measurement configuration is provided through RRC reconfiguration information, and the following measurement parameters are configured: the combination of RSRP and height information.

S2: Acquisition of location information: The UAV measurement report is configured with the measurement report of height information h, using 2bit information to quantify different height ranges, as shown in Table 1.

S3: Joint information reporting: UAV performs measurement measurement, and the measured joint information report value is (RSRP_18, h_2), that is, the value is mapped to (-139～-138dBm, 100～150m), and reported.

S4: Dynamic cooperative cluster selection: The main serving base station receives the joint information (RSRP_18, h_2), and through the pre-configured cooperative cluster information table under different RSRPs and h (as shown in Table 2 above), determines that the cooperative cluster ID is Cluster_3, and the corresponding cooperative base stations include 1, 2, 3, and 5.

S5: Cooperative cluster information feedback: the main serving base station sends cooperative cluster information to the UAV, such as the configuration of CSI-RS and DM-RS adopted by cooperative base stations 1, 2, 3, and 5.

S6: Dynamic cooperation cluster update: UAVs continuously measure the transmission information of each cooperation node in the cooperation cluster, and report the strongest cooperation base station or the RSRP ranking of each cooperation base station based on periodic or event triggers. For example, when h is further increased from h_2 to h_3, the measured RSRP ranking is updated as shown in Table 3. At this time, the received signal strength of the main serving base station becomes weaker (below the threshold and cannot serve), the base station with the strongest RSRP is changed to 3, and the RSRP of the cooperative base station 7 is stronger, and the cooperative base station 7 can be added to the cooperative cluster, and the overall cooperative cluster is dynamically updated to 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, and the main serving base station is switched to 3.
