Description
本申请要求于2022年6月24日提交中国专利局、申请号为202210721956.5、申请名称为“信道估计方法、设备及系统”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。
本申请涉及通信领域,特别涉及信道估计方法、设备及系统。
随着科技进步,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)高速移动的场景应用越来越广泛,基站通过单频网(Single Frequency Network,SFN)组网来实现小区内UE高速移动时的数据传输,SFN是指一个基站所在的逻辑小区内包含多个发送接收点(Transmission and Reception Point,TRP),这些TRP可以同时传输相同的导频和数据,能够帮助基站扩大小区覆盖范围,能够保障UE高速移动场景下服务的连续性,因此在高速移动的场景中,SFN组网应用受到广泛欢迎。
但是由于同时传输相同的导频和数据的TRP位置不同,对于接收不同TRP发送数据的UE来说,信道估计的精度会受到影响,从而影响解调性能。
发明内容
本申请提供了一种信道估计方法、设备及系统,能够准确估计信道的特性,提高解调性能。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种信道估计方法,包括:分别通过基准TRP发送第一跟踪参考信号(Tracking Reference Signal,TRS)和非基准TRP发送第二TRS;通过所述基准TRP发送解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal,DMRS)和物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH);通过所述非基准TRP发送根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH;发送控制消息,所述控制消息指示所述第一预补偿值,所述第一预补偿值与所述第二TRS有关联关系。
本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法,可以适用在一些UE移动速度较快,或者基站覆盖范围较大、UE切换较快的场景中。这种情况下,基站可以通过SFN组网为高速移动或者高频切换的UE提供连续的服务。SFN组网包含有与一个基站相连接的多个TRP,这些TRP可以同时与UE相互传输相同的导频和数据。
基站可以通过多个TRP向UE发送导频和数据,如发送每个TRP对应的TRS。以该基站对应的两个TRP来说,可以将两个TRP分别视为一个基准TRP和一个非基准TRP,其中,非基准TRP发送的导频和数据可以以基准TRP的发送的相应导频和数据为基准进行预补偿,如,基站的中心频点为fc,基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd1,非基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd2。基站基于基准TRP和非基准TRP可以计算出一个第一预补偿值,该第一预补偿值可以是频偏预补偿值,即基准TRP估计出与UE的频偏和非基准TRP与UE的频偏差。同理,基站基于基准TRP和非基准TRP的时延可以计算出一个时延预补偿值,该第一预补偿值可以是时延预补偿值,或者基站可以计算出频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,该第一预补偿值可以是频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一预补偿值包括频偏预补偿和时延预补偿中的一种或两种。基站根据第一预补偿值,对非基准TRP要发送的DMRS和PDSCH完成预补偿。并向UE发送控制消息,来指示该第一预补偿值,以使得UE能够根据第一预补偿值对接收到的DMRS和PDSCH进行处理,进而解出更准确的数据。
在一种可能的实现方式中,该方法还包括:通知UE使用所述第一TRS和所述第二TRS接收PDSCH,且所述第一TRS的QCL类型为第一QCL类型,所述第二TRS的QCL类型为第二QCL类型,所述通知方式包括但不限于使用无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)信令、媒体介入控制层(Medium Access Control,MAC)控制元素、下行链路控制消息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)或者它们的组合。
如,基站可以配置传输配置指示(Transmission configuration Indicator,TCI)状态,该TCI状态包括配置要发送的DMRS与TRS的准共址(Quasi Co-Located,QCL)关系,如配置第一TRS和第二TRS准共址,且分别配置第一TRS和第二TRS的QCL类型,再激活有QCL关系的第一TRS和第二TRS,以通知UE使用该第一TRS和所述第二TRS接收PDSCH。
在一些实例中,基站发送MAC控制元素,由MAC控制元素激活第一TRS和第二TRS,即通过MAC控制元素激活第一TRS的TCI状态和第二TRS的TCI状态,相当于通知UE第一TRS和第二TRS与其接收的DMRS准共址,以及第一QCL类型和第二QCL类型。或,基站发送MAC控制元素,MAC控制元素至少激活第一TRS和第二TRS,再通过DCI从MAC控制元素激活的TRS中选择第一TRS和第二TRS,即发送的DCI的TCI字段,通知UE第一TRS、第二TRS和接收到的DMRS准共址,UE可以使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH。基站除了通过TCI配置,还可以通过发送RRC信令,由RRC信令配置第一TRS的第一QCL类型,和配置第二TRS的第二QCL类型,以通知UE使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种,所述第二QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种。
现有标准中定义了四种的QCL类型,分别是QCL类型A、B、C、D。QCL类型A为:多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均时延和时延扩展;QCL类型B为:多普勒频移和多普勒扩展;QCL类型C为:平均信道时延和多普勒频移;QCL类型D为:空间接收参数。基站可以给UE配置一种或多种类型的QCL,并且可指示UE丢弃QCL类型A中的“多普勒频移”和“多普勒扩展”信息,举例来说,基站可以配置第一QCL类型为QCL类型A,第二QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展},并通知UE该第一QCL类型和第二QCL类型。本申请实施例可以配置这四种QCL类型,但不限于此。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,所述第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,所述预补偿为频偏预补偿;或,所述第一QCL类型包括平均信道时延,所述第一预补偿值为时延预补偿值,所述预补偿为时延预补偿;或,所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移和平均信道时延,所述第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,所述预补偿为频偏预补偿和时延预补偿。
在一种可能的实现方式中,该方法还包括:得到第二预补偿值,通过所述非基准TRP发送根据所述第二预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH;若所述第二预补偿值与所述第一预补偿值之差的绝对值大于预设阈值,发送所述控制消息,所述控制消息指示所述第二预补偿值,所述第二预补偿值与所述第二TRS有关联关系。
如,当频偏预补偿值发生变化,基站可以下发新的MAC控制元素指示新的频偏预补偿值。如,基站可以一直估算频偏补偿值,记作基站得到第二预补偿值,基站再次通过非基准TRP发送根据第二预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH,当第二预补偿值与基站之前发送的第一预补偿值之差的绝对值大于预设阈值,即超过一个门限时,重新向UE发送控制消息,指示第二预补偿值,该第二预补偿值与第二TRS有关联关系,使得UE根据第二预补偿值对新的目标DMRS进行信道估计,再解调目标PDSCH。
基站通过非基准TRP发送根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH,再通过控制消息向UE指示该第一预补偿值,能够使得UE通过该第一预补偿值对DMRS进行更加准确的信道估计,进而解出更加准确的PDSCH。
第二方面,本申请实施例提供一种信道估计方法,包括:接收基准TRP发送的第一跟踪参考信号TRS和非基准TRP发送的第二TRS;接收所述基准TRP发送的解调参考信号DMRS、物理下行共享信道PDSCH和所述非基准TRP发送的根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS、PDSCH,得到目标DMRS和目标PDSCH;接收控制消息,根据所述控制消息指示的所述第一预补偿值与所述第二TRS的关联关系,确定所述第一预补偿值;根据接收的所述第一TRS、所述第二TRS和所述第一预补偿值对所述目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调所述目标PDSCH。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述预补偿值包括频偏预补偿和时延预补偿中的一种或两种。
由于DMRS通过不同径的TRP发送给UE时会有不同程度的频偏,UE在频域上接收时,得到的目标DMRS与TRP发出的DMRS存在一定的频偏,目标PDSCH也会存在一定程度上的频偏,因此,
信道带有大多普勒扩展,基于DMRS进行信道估计的精度不高。同理,由于DMRS通过不同径的TRP发送给UE时会有不同程度的时延,UE在时域上接收时,得到的目标DMRS与TRP发出的DMRS存在一定的时延,目标PDSCH也会存在一定程度上的时延,因此,信道带有大时延扩展,基于DMRS进行信道估计的精度不高。因此UE可以根据控制消息指示的第一预补偿值,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH,来得到精度较高的解算结果。
在一种可能的实现方式中,还包括:接收通知,所述通知方式包括但不限于使用无线资源控制RRC信令、媒体介入控制层MAC控制元素、下行链路控制信息DCI或者它们的组合;根据所述通知使用所述第一TRS和所述第二TRS接收PDSCH,且所述第一TRS的QCL类型为第一QCL类型,所述第二TRS的QCL类型为第二QCL类型。
在一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种,所述第二QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种。
现有标准中定义了四种的QCL类型,分别是QCL类型A、B、C、D。QCL类型A为:多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均时延和时延扩展;QCL类型B为:多普勒频移和多普勒扩展;QCL类型C为:平均信道时延和多普勒频移;QCL类型D为:空间接收参数。基站可以给UE配置一种或多种类型的QCL,并且可指示UE丢弃QCL类型A中的“多普勒频移”和“多普勒扩展”信息,本申请实施例可以配置这四种QCL类型,但不限于此。UE可以根据接收到的第一QCL类型包括的内容,确定预补偿值是频偏预补偿值、时延预补偿值还是两者皆有。举例来说,UE获知第一QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展}。UE可以确定预补偿值是频偏预补偿值,进而通过该频偏预补偿值进行后续的接收和解算。
在一种可能的实现方式中,若确定接收到的所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,所述第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,所述预补偿为频偏预补偿,所述根据接收的所述第一TRS、所述第二TRS和所述第一预补偿值对所述目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调所述目标PDSCH包括:根据所述第一TRS估计得到第一多普勒特性;根据所述第二TRS估计得到第二多普勒特性,并根据所述第一频偏预补偿值对所述第二多普勒特性进行频偏补偿;根据预定加权规则对所述第一多普勒特性和频偏补偿的所述第二多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性;根据所述加权多普勒特性,对所述目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调所述目标PDSCH。
如,UE在不同的时域和/或频域上接收基准TRP发送的第一TRS和非基准TRP发送的第二TRS,对第一TRS和第二TRS分别估计多普勒特性。再基于基站指示的第一预补偿值即频偏预补偿值,对第二TRS所估计的多普勒特性进行频偏补偿,UE再按照第一TRS和第二TRS的参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power,RSRP)或者信噪比(Signal-to-Noise Ratio,SNR),对第一TRS和第二TRS的多普勒特性加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性。最后基于第一TRS和第二TRS的加权多普勒特性,进行目标DMRS信道估计,用于对目标PDSCH做解调,得到PDSCH的数据。
在一种可能的实现方式中,若确定接收到的所述第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,所述第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,所述预补偿为频偏预补偿,所述根据接收的所述第一TRS、所述第二TRS和所述第一预补偿值对所述目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调所述目标PDSCH包括:根据所述第一TRS估计得到所述第一多普勒特性;根据所述第一预补偿值对所述第二TRS进行频偏补偿,根据频偏补偿后的TRS估计得到第三多普勒特性;根据预定加权规则对所述第一多普勒特性和所述第三多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性;根据所述加权多普勒特性,对所述目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调所述目标PDSCH。

下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本文中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。
本申请实施例的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”和“第二”等是用于区别不同的对象,而不是用于描述对象的特定顺序。例如,第一目标对象和第二目标对象等是用于区别不同的目标对象,而不是用于描述目标对象的特定顺序。
在本申请实施例中,“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明。本申请实施例中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其它实施例或设计方案更优选或更具优势。确切而言,使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念。
在本申请实施例的描述中,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是指两个或两个以上。例如,多个处理单元是指两个或两个以上的处理单元;多个系统是指两个或两个以上的系统。
UE可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、大型或小微型;也可以部署在水面上(如轮船等);还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。UE可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备等,如手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑(pad)、具备无线通讯功能的可穿戴设备(如智能手表)、具有定位功能的位置追踪器、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)设备、增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线设备、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线设备、远程医疗(remote medical)中的无线设备、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线设备、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线设备、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线设备、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线设备等,本申请对此不作限定。
在一些UE移动速度较快,或者基站覆盖范围较大,UE切换较快的场景中,可以通过SFN组网解决UE高速移动场景下,需要频繁切换小区而影响通信服务连续性的问题。SFN组网是指包括一个基站的逻辑小区内包含有多个物理小区,这些物理小区通常称为TRP,这些TRP可以同时与UE相互传输相同的导频和数据。由于一个基站拥有多个SFN,每个SFN的TRP都可以与UE相互传输导频和数据,相当于传输扩大了基站,即逻辑小区提供连续服务的范围。图1为本申请实施例提供的一种高铁网络示意图,如图1所示,基于SFN组网的这种特性,在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)和新空口(New Radio,NR)高铁网络中,SFN组网得到了广泛的应用。
但是SFN的缺点是,由于通过不同TRP与UE传输导频和数据,TRP径不同导致频偏差异较大,对于UE来说,信道会具有大多普勒扩展和大时延扩展等特点,这些特点会导致数据和导频携带明显的载波间串扰(Inter-Carrier Interference,ICI)和符号间串扰(Inter-Symbol Interference,ISI),进而影响UE进行信道估计的精确度。
为了解决这个问题,本申请实施例提供了一种信道估计方法,该方法通过基站指示用以补偿该信道估计误差的预补偿值使得UE能够精确进行信道估计,其中,预补偿值是频偏预补偿和时延预补偿中的一种或两种。本申请实施例以该方法适用的网络系统为包含两个TRP的基站和一个UE的场景举例说明,其中,两个TRP包括一个基准TRP和一个非基准TRP,非基准TRP发送的导频和数据可以以基准TRP的发送的相应导频和数据为基准进行预补偿。应理解,网络系统为包含一个基准TRP和一个非基准TRP的架构是一种实施方式,更一般的一个示例中,也可以是第一TRP和第二TRP,且本申请的举例不作为系统中基准包含TRP个数的限制,包含更多TRP的基站,使用本申请提供的方法进行信道估计的场景均在保护范围之内。
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种信道估计方法流程图,如图2所示,该方法包括:
S101、基站分别通过基准TRP发送第一TRS和非基准TRP发送第二TRS。
需要说明的是,基站可以包含一个基准TRP和一个非基准TRP,这两个TRP可以以SFN的形式联合向同一个UE发送导频和数据,如本例中,基准TRP发送的TRS可以记作第一TRS,非基准TRP发送的TRS可以记作第二TRS。如果基站的中心频点为fc,基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd1,非基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd2。基站基于基准TRP和非基准TRP可以确定一个频偏预补偿值,即基准TRP估计出与UE的频偏和非基准TRP与UE的频偏差,一个实施方式中,频偏差δf=fd1-fd2。同理,基站还可以通过上行参考信号分别估计出基准TRP和非基准TRP的时延,基于基准TRP和非基准TRP的时延差可以确定出一个时延预补偿值,基站还可以综合上述频偏和时延确定一个频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值。本例中,基站确定的各预补偿值均可以记作第一预补偿值。
进一步地,基站配置TCI状态,该TCI状态包括要发送的DMRS和TRS的QCL关系,如,TCI状态配置了五个TRS,记作TRS1、TRS2、TRS3、TRS4和TRS5,还配置了基站要发送的DMRS与其中的TRS1和TRS2有QCL关系,且配置TRS1和TRS2的QCL类型,其中,以TRS1记作基准TRP发送的第一TRS,TRS2为非基准TRP发送的第二TRS为例,第一TRS的QCL类型记作第一QCL类
型,第二TRS的QCL类型记作第二QCL类型。因此,基站可以通过一些方式激活有QCL关系的第一TRS和第二TRS,以通知UE使用该第一TRS和所述第二TRS接收PDSCH。
在一些实例中,基站可以发送MAC控制元素,由MAC控制元素激活第一TRS和第二TRS,即通过MAC控制元素激活第一TRS的TCI状态和第二TRS的TCI状态,相当于通知UE第一TRS和第二TRS与其接收的DMRS准共址,以及第一QCL类型和第二QCL类型。
或,基站可以发送MAC控制元素,MAC控制元素至少激活第一TRS和第二TRS,再通过DCI从MAC控制元素激活的TRS中选择第一TRS和第二TRS,即发送的DCI的TCI字段,通知UE第一TRS、第二TRS和接收到的DMRS准共址,UE可以使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH。同时,还可以指示UE第一TRS的QCL类型是第一QCL类型,第二TRS的QCL类型是第二QCL类型,其中,第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移(Doppler shift)、多普勒扩展(Doppler spread)、平均时延(average delay)、时延扩展(delay spread)、空间接收参数(spatial Rx parameter)中的至少一种,第二QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种。
在一些实例中,基站除了通过TCI配置,还可以通过发送RRC信令,由RRC信令配置第一TRS的第一QCL类型,和配置第二TRS的第二QCL类型,以通知UE使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH。
现有标准中定义了四种的QCL类型,分别是QCL类型A、B、C、D。QCL类型A为:多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均时延和时延扩展;QCL类型B为:多普勒频移和多普勒扩展;QCL类型C为:平均信道时延和多普勒频移;QCL类型D为:空间接收参数。基站可以给UE配置一种或多种类型的QCL,并且可指示UE丢弃QCL类型A中的“多普勒频移”和“多普勒扩展”信息,举例来说,基站可以配置第一QCL类型为QCL类型A,第二QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展},并指示该第一QCL类型和第二QCL类型。本申请实施例可以配置这四种QCL类型,但不限于此。
在一些实例中,第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,预补偿为频偏预补偿;或,第一QCL类型包括平均信道时延,第一预补偿值为时延预补偿值,预补偿为时延预补偿;或,第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移和平均信道时延,第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,预补偿为频偏预补偿和时延预补偿。UE可以根据接收到的第一QCL的类型,确定预补偿是频偏预补偿或时延预补偿中的一种或两种,进而根据该补偿对应的补偿值解调PDSCH。
S102、基站通过基准TRP发送DMRS和PDSCH,通过非基准TRP发送根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH。
进一步地,基站可以在相同的时频或同一个时频符号上通过基准TRP和非基准TRP发送DMRS和PDSCH,其中非基准TRP在发送前根据第一预补偿值对PDSCH和DMRS进行了预补偿。即非基准TRP要发生的完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH与第二TRS有关,如上例所示,如果在频域上收发TRS,基站的中心频点为fc,基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd1,非基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd2。基站基于基准TRP和非基准TRP可以计算出一个频偏预补偿值,即基准TRP估计出与UE的频偏和非基准TRP与UE的频偏差,记作δf=fd1-fd2,该以第一预补偿值与第二TRS有关联关系,可以是频偏预补偿值即δf=fd1-fd2,非基准TRP对PDSCH和DMRS按照所计算的δf=fd1-fd2进行频偏预补偿,这样一来,由于基站的中心频率为fc,基准TRP发送的DMRS和PDSCH被UE接收时,产生的频偏约为fd1,接收到的中心频率可以确定为fc+fd1,非基准TRP发送的DMRS和PDSCH被UE接收时,产生的频偏约为fd2,接收到的中心频率本应为fc+fd2,但非基准TRP发送前,根据δf=fd1-fd2对DMRS和PDSCH进行了预补偿,因此,接收到的中心频率可以确定为fc+fd1。基站通过非基准TRP对DMRS和PDSCH完成预补偿,再发送DMRS和PDSCH,可以使得UE接收到的DMRS和PDSCH中心频偏相同或相近,对DMRS进行信道估计和对PDSCH解码时得到的数据才能更加精确。
S103、基站发送控制消息。
该控制消息指示第一预补偿值,第一预补偿值与非基准TRP的TRS有关联关系。仍然以第一预补偿值为上例的频偏预补偿来举例,该第一预补偿值为δf=fd1-fd2,其中δf是基站通过非基准TRP发送TRS时计算出的频偏预补偿值,因此,第一预补偿值与第二TRS有关联关系。
进一步地,如果基站包含三个TRP,即一个基准TRP和两个非基准TRP,分别记作第一非基准
TRP和第二非基准TRP,如果在频域上收发TRS,基站的中心频点为fc,基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd1,第一非基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd2,第二非基准TRP估计与UE之间的频偏为fd3,那么第一非基准TRP发送TRS时,基站计算出的频偏预补偿值应该为δf=fd1-fd2,第二非基准TRP发送TRS时,频偏预补偿值应该为δf=fd1-fd3。从该例可以看出,对不同非基准TRP的TRS的第一预补偿值不同,即第一预补偿值与非基准TRP的TRS有关联关系。本申请实施例以一个基准TRP和一个非基准TRP举例说明信道估计方法,多个非基准TRP的系统中,信道估计方法均可以参照此举例得到,不再展开详述。
本申请实施例的基站通过非基准TRP发送根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH,再通过控制消息向UE指示该第一预补偿值,能够使得UE通过该第一预补偿值对DMRS进行更加准确的信道估计,进而解出更加准确的PDSCH。
图3为本申请实施例提供的另一种信道估计方法流程图,如图3所示,该方法包括:
S201、UE接收基准TRP发送的第一TRS和非基准TRP发送的第二TRS。
在一些实例中,UE除了接收基准TRP发送的第一TRS和非基准TRP发送的第二TRS,还能接收到基站的通知,UE根据基站的通知能够确定接收到的第一TRS、第二TRS和DMRS准共址,可以使用该第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH,且根据该通知,UE可以确定第一TRS的QCL类型为第一QCL类型,第二TRS的QCL类型为第二QCL类型。其中,第一TRS的QCL类型为第一QCL类型,第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种。第二TRS的QCL类型为第二QCL类型,第二QCL类型包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均信道时延、时延扩展和空间接收参数中的至少一种。
举例来说,UE可以接收通知,该通知方式包括但不限于使用RRC信令、MAC控制元素、DCI或者它们的组合,UE根据通知确定基站的配置消息,获知可以使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收PDSCH,且第一TRS的QCL类型为第一QCL类型,第二TRS的QCL类型为第二QCL类型。
现有标准中定义了四种的QCL类型,分别是QCL类型A、B、C、D。QCL类型A为:多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均时延和时延扩展;QCL类型B为:多普勒频移和多普勒扩展;QCL类型C为:平均信道时延和多普勒频移;QCL类型D为:空间接收参数。基站可以给UE配置一种或多种类型的QCL,并且可指示UE丢弃QCL类型A中的“多普勒频移”和“多普勒扩展”信息,本申请实施例以配置这四种QCL类型举例,但不限于此。UE可以根据接收到的第一QCL类型包括的内容,确定预补偿值是频偏预补偿值、时延预补偿值还是两者皆有。举例来说,UE获知第一QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展}。UE可以确定预补偿值是频偏预补偿值,进而通过该频偏预补偿值进行后续的接收和解算。
S202、UE接收基准TRP发送DMRS、PDSCH和非基准TRP发送根据第一预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS、PDSCH,得到目标DMRS和目标PDSCH。
由于DMRS通过不同径的TRP发送给UE时会有不同程度的频偏,UE接收时,得到的目标DMRS与TRP发出的DMRS存在一定的频偏,目标PDSCH也会存在一定程度上的频偏,因此,信道带有大多普勒扩展,基于DMRS进行信道估计的精度不高。同理,由于DMRS通过不同径的TRP发送给UE时会有不同程度的时延,UE接收时,得到的目标DMRS与TRP发出的DMRS存在一定的时延,目标PDSCH也会存在一定程度上的时延,因此,信道带有大时延扩展,基于DMRS进行信道估计的精度不高。因此UE可以根据步骤S203中接收到的控制消息指示的第一预补偿值的内容,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH,从而得到精度较高的解算结果。
进一步地,UE可以根据上例中接收到的通知,确定分别使用第一TRS和第二TRS接收DMRS和PDSCH,得到目标DMRS和目标PDSCH。
S203、UE接收控制消息,根据控制消息指示的第一预补偿值与非基准TRP发送的TRS的关联关系,确定第一预补偿值。
举例来说,第一预补偿值是频偏预补偿值或时延预补偿值中的一种或两种,即,第一预补偿值是频偏预补偿值,那么UE可以对频域上接收后得到的目标DMRS和目标PDSCH进行处理;第一预补偿值是时延预补偿值,那么UE可以对时域上接收后得到的目标DMRS和目标PDSCH进行处理,同理,如果第一预补偿值是频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,那么UE可以对频域和时域上接收后得到的
目标DMRS和目标PDSCH进行处理。
S204、UE根据接收的第一TRS、第二TRS和第一预补偿值对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
UE可以根据不同的第一QCL类型和第一预补偿值采用不同的方法,根据接收的第一TRS、第二TRS对目标DMRS进行信道估计,接收并解调目标PDSCH。
在一些实例中,若确定接收到的第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,预补偿为频偏预补偿,UE可以根据第一TRS估计得到第一多普勒特性;根据第二TRS估计得到第二多普勒特性,并根据第一频偏预补偿值对第二多普勒特性进行频偏补偿;根据预定加权规则对第一多普勒特性和频偏补偿的第二多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性;最后根据加权多普勒特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
如,UE在不同的时域和/或频域上接收基准TRP发送的第一TRS和非基准TRP发送的第二TRS,对第一TRS和第二TRS分别估计多普勒特性。再基于基站指示的第一预补偿值即频偏预补偿值,对第二TRS所估计的多普勒特性进行频偏补偿,UE再按照第一TRS和第二TRS的RSRP或者SNR对第一TRS和第二TRS的多普勒特性加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性。最后基于第一TRS和第二TRS的加权多普勒特性,进行目标DMRS信道估计,用于对目标PDSCH做解调,得到PDSCH的数据。
需要说明的是,估计多普勒特性和进行频偏补偿没有顺序的限定,也可以是UE根据第一TRS估计得到第一多普勒特性;根据第一预补偿值对第二TRS进行频偏补偿,根据频偏补偿后的TRS估计得到第三多普勒特性;根据预定加权规则对第一多普勒特性和第三多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性;根据加权多普勒特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
若UE确定接收到的第一QCL类型包括平均信道时延,第一预补偿值为时延预补偿值,预补偿为时延预补偿,UE根据时域上接收到的TRS,即根据第一TRS估计得到第一时延特性;根据第二TRS估计得到第二时延特性,并根据时延预补偿值对第二时延特性进行时延补偿;根据预定加权规则对第一时延特性和时延补偿的第二时延特性进行加权求和,得到加权时延特性;根据加权时延特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
估计时延特性和进行时延补偿没有顺序的限定,也可以是UE根据第一TRS估计得到第一时延特性;根据时延预补偿值对第二TRS进行时延补偿,根据时延补偿后的TRS估计得到第三时延特性;根据预定加权规则对第一时延特性和第三时延特性进行加权求和,得到加权时延特性;根据加权时延特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
若UE确定接收到的第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移和平均信道时延,第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,预补偿为频偏预补偿和时延预补偿,那么UE根据在时域和频域上接收到的TRS,即根据第一TRS估计得到第一多普勒特性和第一时延特性;根据第二TRS估计得到第二多普勒特性和第二时延特性,根据频偏预补偿值对第二多普勒特性进行频偏补偿,根据时延预补偿值对第二时延特性进行时延补偿;根据预定加权规则对第一多普勒特性和频偏补偿的第二多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性,根据预定加权规则对第一时延特性和时延补偿的第二时延特性进行加权求和,得到加权时延特性;根据加权多普勒特性和加权时延特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
估计多普勒特性和进行频偏补偿没有顺序的限定,估计时延特性和进行时延补偿也没有顺序的限定,UE可以根据第一TRS估计得到第一多普勒特性和第一时延特性;根据第一预补偿值对第二TRS进行频偏补偿,根据频偏补偿后的TRS估计得到第三多普勒特性,根据时延预补偿值对第二TRS进行时延补偿,根据时延补偿后的TRS估计得到第三时延特性;根据预定加权规则对第一多普勒特性和第三多普勒特性进行加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性,对第一时延特性和第三时延特性进行加权求和,得到加权时延特性;根据加权多普勒特性和加权时延特性,对目标DMRS进行信道估计,解调目标PDSCH。
本申请实施例的UE通过接收到的基站指示的第一预补偿值对DMRS进行更加准确的信道估计,进而解出更加准确的PDSCH,能够有效消除DMRS从基站传输到UE时不同频偏和/或时延对解算PDSCH结果造成的误差。
在一些实例中,本申请实施例可以应用于一种TRP的通信系统中,该系统可以配置为一个基站对
应两个TRP,这两个TRP可以在相同的时频资源上,或者时频符号上发送联合发送导频和数据,系统中还包括一个UE,可以接收来自这两个TRP的导频和数据,下例仅以两个TRP分别为TRP#1和TRP#2举例进行说明,TRP的数量可从两个拓展为多个,只需将其中一个TRP作为基准,其他非基准TRP根据本例中TRP#2的方法进行预补偿,使得UE可以根据预补偿值接收和解调接收到的导频和数据。图4为本申请实施例提供的另一种信道估计方法流程图,如图4所示,该方法包括:
S301、TRP#1和TRP#2分别发送TRS#1和TRS#2,基站通过MAC控制元素同时激活TRS#1和TRS#2,并配置TRS#1的QCL类型为类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{多普勒扩展,时延扩展}。
需要说明的是,基站通过与它连接的TRP发送导频和数据,如TRP#1发送TRS#1,TRP#2发送和TRS#2,根据基站的配置消息,UE获知其接收的DMRS同时与TRS#1和TRS#2有QCL关系,并且TRS#1的QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展}。配置方式可以为基站通过高层信令参数配置了TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,该TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2表示TRS#1和DMRS是QCL的,TRS#2和DMRS是QCL的,且,TRS#1和TRS#2也是QCL的。且,TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2的QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#1和TRS#2分别与TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2关联。基站可以给UE配置一个或多种类型的QCL,并且可指示UE丢弃QCL类型A中的“多普勒频移”和“多普勒扩展”信息,如基站的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的MAC控制元素(MAC CE)可以同时激活TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,来通知UE,第一QCL状态为TCI状态#1,第二QCL状态为TCI状态#2的QCL参数{多普勒频移,多普勒扩展}不可用。或者基站也可以通过DCI的TCI字段同时指示TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,通知UE,第一QCL状态为TCI状态#1,第二QCL状态为TCI状态#2的QCL参数{多普勒频移,多普勒扩展}不可用。再或者,基站可以通过发送RRC信令,通知UE上述信息。
S302、TRP#1和TRP#2发送PDSCH和DMRS,其中,TRP#2在发送前对PDSCH和DMRS进行了频偏预补偿。
在一些实例中,TRP#1和TRP#2可以在相同的时频资源上,或者时频符号上发送PDSCH和DMRS。
本例以TRS#1的QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{平均时延,时延扩展}为例,第一QCL类型包括多普勒频移,第一预补偿值为频偏预补偿值,预补偿为频偏预补偿,因此,在TRP#2发送PDSCH和DMRS之前,根据频偏预补偿值对PDSCH和DMRS进行了频偏预补偿。指的说明的是,由于SFN网络的传输特性,在频偏预补偿之前,TRP#2的DMRS和TRP#1的DMRS完全相同,TRP#2的PDSCH和TRP#1的PDSCH完全相同,频偏预补偿后,TRP#2的DMRS和TRP#1的DMRS存在一个频偏预补偿值大小的频偏,TRP#2的PDSCH和TRP#1的PDSCH亦然,传输到UE时,由于预先进行了频偏预补偿,UE接收到的PDSCH和DMRS可以通过该频偏预补偿值,进行准确的信道估计和PDSCH解调。
S303、基站下发MAC CE,指示TRP#2的频偏预补偿值,且该频偏预补偿值与
TRS#2关联。
本例以基站下发MAC CE进行通知为例进行说明,通知的其他方式如通过RRC信令、DCI通知等可以参照此步骤进行,在此不再展开描述。频偏补偿值可以参考上例中计算的第二TRP的频偏而得出的δf=fd1-fd2。
举例来说,图5为本申请实施例提供的预补偿值的比特位示意图,如图5所示,该频偏预补偿值一共用6比特表示,第1比特为频偏符号位,用于表示频偏补偿值的正负,第2比特至第5比特为频偏绝对值,用来表示频偏的数值。可以将该频偏补偿值的单位设置为56.45Hz,这样频偏预补偿值的表示范围可以取[-1750,1750]Hz。可以将该MAC CE的此段内容设定为:MAC CE所指示的频偏预补偿值,与PDCCH的MAC控制元素同时激活的2个TCI状态的后者,即与TCI状态#2关联。
在一些实例中,当频偏预补偿值发生变化,基站可以下发新的MAC CE指示新的频偏预补偿值。如,基站可以一直估算频偏补偿值,记作基站得到第二预补偿值,基站通过非基准TRP发送根据第二预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH,当第二预补偿值与基站之前发送的第一预补偿值之差的绝对值大于预设阈值,即超过一个门限时,基站重新向UE发送控制消息,控制消息指示第二预补偿值,该第二预补偿值与第二TRS有关联关系,使得UE根据接收到的控制消息的指示,确定使用第二预补偿值对新接收的DMRS进行信道估计,再解调PDSCH,信道估计和解调方法参照上例。举例来说,第
二预补偿值与基站之前发送的第一预补偿值之差的绝对值大于五十赫兹或一百赫兹时,基站可以重新向UE发送控制消息。
S304、UE基于TRS#1、TRS#2和所指示的频偏预补偿值,进行PDSCH接收。
UE一般通过对DMRS解调参考信号导频进行滤波和插值,估计出PDSCH的信道,即UE估计信道大尺度特性,基于信道大尺度特性计算滤波系数,基于滤波系数对DMRS导频进行滤波和插值,最后解调出PDSCH的数据。其中,信道大尺度特性包括多普勒频移、多普勒扩展、平均时延、时延扩展、空间接收参数等。
由于基站通过不同TRP发送的DMRS和PDSCH频偏不同,UE接收到的PDSCH不能完全叠加重合,相当于对于UE来说,接收到的PDSCH信道被改变了。因此,UE需要在不同频域资源上接收TRS#1和TRS#2,分别估计TRS#1和TRS#2多普勒特性,再基于基站指示的频偏预补偿值,对TRS#2所估计的多普勒特性进行频偏补偿。举例来说,UE可以按照TRS#1和TRS#2的RSRP参考信号接收功率或者SNR信噪比对TRS#1和TRS#2的多普勒特性加权求和,得到加权多普勒特性。在一些实例中,可以先对对TRS#2的多普勒特性进行估算,再进行频偏补偿最后进行加权求和。最后,UE基于TRS#1和TRS#2的加权多普勒特性,进行DMRS信道估计,用于对接收的PDSCH做解调,这样一来得到PDSCH数据更加精准。
在一些实例中,基站配置的第一QCL类型和第二QCL类型与上述举例不同,信道估计方法如下:
TRP#1和TRP#2分别发送TRS#1和TRS#2,根据基站的配置消息,UE获知DMRS同时与TRS#1和TRS#2有QCL关系,并且TRS#1的QCL类型为QCL类型A,TRS#2的QCL类型为{多普勒频移,多普勒扩展}。举例来说,可以是基站通过高层信令参数配置了TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2的QCL类型为QCL类型A。且TRS#1和TRS#2分别与TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2关联。PDCCH的MAC CE同时激活TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,或者通过DCI的TCI字段同时指示TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2,如可以指示TCI状态#2的QCL参数为{平均时延,时延扩展}不可用。TRP#1和TRP#2同时发送PDSCH和DMRS,其中,TRP#2在发送前对PDSCH和DMRS进行了时延预补偿。基站发送控制消息,如MAC CE指示TRP#2的时延预补偿值,且该时延预补偿值与TRS#2关联,具体数值可参照上例计算,在此不再展开。
举例来说,图6为本申请实施例提供的另一种预补偿值的比特位示意图,如图6所示,该时延预补偿值一共用6比特表示,第1比特为时延符号位,用于表示时延补偿值的正负,第2比特至第5比特为时延绝对值,用来表示时延的数值,与频偏预补偿值不同,可以将时延预补偿值的单位设定为77.42ns,可表示范围[-2400,2400]ns。可以将此段内容设定为:MAC CE所指示的时延预补偿值,与PDCCH的MAC控制元素同时激活的2个TCI状态的后者,即与TCI状态#2关联。
在一些实例中,当时延预补偿值发生变化,基站可以下发新的MAC CE指示新的时延预补偿值,更新方法可以参照上述频偏预补偿值发生变化的示例类推得到,在此不再赘述。
在本例中,UE基于TRS#1、TRS#2和所指示的时延预补偿值,进行PDSCH接收。即UE在不同的时域和/或频域资源上接收TRS#1和TRS#2,分别估计时延特性,再基于基站指示的时延预补偿值,对TRS#2所估计的时延特性进行时延补偿,依然可以对补偿后的时延特性和TRS#1的时延特性加权求和,得到加权时延特性。同理,也可以先对TRS#2的DMRS进行时延特性的补偿,再进行时延特性估计,最后加权求和。UE基于TRS#1和TRS#2的加权时延特性,进行DMRS信道估计,用于对接收的PDSCH做解调。
在一些实例中,可以同时进行频偏预补偿和时延预补偿,这样得到对接收的PDSCH做解调得到的数据准确性更高。基站可以通过TRP#1和TRP#2分别发送TRS#1和TRS#2,如基站配置了TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2。TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2的QCL类型为QCL类型A。TRS#1和TRS#2分别与TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2关联。PDCCH的MAC CE同时激活TCI状态#1和TCI状态#2。TCI状态#2的QCL参数{多普勒频移,平均时延}不可用。在这种情况下,TRP#1和TRP#2可以同时发送PDSCH和DMRS,其中TRP#2在发送前对PDSCH和DMRS进行了频偏预补偿和时延预补偿,且基站发送的控制消息指示TRP#2的频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,并告知UE且该频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值均与TRS#2关联。
与上述举例不同的是,该第一预补偿值占有12个比特,图7为本申请实施例提供的另一种预补偿
值的比特位示意图,如图7所示,如,第1比特位为和第7比特位为符号位,第2比特位至第6比特位、第8比特位至第12比特位为数字位。其中,第1比特为频偏符号位,用于表示频偏补偿值的正负,第2比特至第5比特为频偏绝对值,用来表示频偏的数值,可以将该频偏补偿值的单位设置为56.45Hz,这样频偏预补偿值的表示范围可以取[-1750,1750]Hz,第7比特为时延符号位,用于表示时延补偿值的正负,第8比特至第12比特为时延绝对值,用来表示时延的数值,与频偏预补偿值不同,可以将时延预补偿值的单位设定为77.42ns,可表示范围[-2400,2400]ns。图7仅为一种示例,频偏补偿值占有的比特位可以与时延补偿值占有的比特位互换,不以图7为限定。
UE基于TRS#1、TRS#2和所指示的频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值,进行PDSCH接收,具体的方法可以参照上述频偏预补偿值和时延预补偿值单独计算的举例,再此不再赘述。
本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法,能够帮助UE准确估计信道的多普勒特性和时延特性,从而提高UE接收的解调性能。除了上述举例外,本申请提供的向UE发送已经完成预补偿的导频和数据,再通知UE预补偿值,以使得UE能够根据获取的各项数值准确进行特性估计,进而提高UE接收的调解性能的方法,还可应用到其他多TRP传输网络中,如空分复用(Space Division Multiplexing,SDM)传输中,不以本申请的举例为限定。

进一步地,基站会不断得到第二预补偿值,重新向UE发送根据第二预补偿值补偿的导频和数据,当该值超过预设阈值时,重新发送控制消息指示第二预补偿值,如处理模块12,用于得到第二预补偿值发送模块10,还用于通过非基准TRP发送根据第二预补偿值完成预补偿的DMRS和PDSCH,若第二预补偿值与第一预补偿值之差的绝对值大于预设阈值,发送控制消息,控制消息指示第二预补偿值,第二预补偿值与第二TRS有关联关系。
