需要说明的是,在本文中,术语“包括”、“包含”或者其任何其他变体意在涵盖非排他性的包含,从而使得包括一系列要素的过程、方法、物品或者装置不仅包括那些要素,而且还包括没有明确列出的其他要素,或者是还包括为这种过程、方法、物品或者装置所固有的要素。在没有更多限制的情况下,由语句“包括一个……”限定的要素,并不排除在包括该要素的过程、方法、物品或者装置中还存在另外的相同要素。
本申请涉及通信技术,为便于本申请实施例的理解,首先对本申请涉及的相关通信技术进行详细说明。
1)LTE小区特定参考信号(Cell-specific Reference Signal,CRS)资源映射:
如图1所示,图1为本申请实施例提供的一种LTE CRS资源映射示意图。请参见图1,每个CRS占一个资源元素(Resource element,RE)。CRS在每个下行子帧、整个下行带宽内的每个资源块(Resource Block,RB)上都会发送。CRS在每个RB内的起始位置和小区特定的频率偏移(frequency shift)相关。
小区可以使用1个CRS、2个CRS或者4个CRS。其中,LTE小区使用1个CRS时,可以使用1个天线端口(例如,天线端口0);LTE小区使用2个CRS时,可以使用2个天线端口(例如,天线端口0和天线端口1);LTE小区使用4个CRS时,可以使用4个天线端口(例如,天线端口0、天线端 口1、天线端口2和天线端口3)。
当小区使用1个CRS时,CRS会插入到每个时隙的第1个正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing,OFDM)符号和倒数第3个OFDM符号中。同一个OFDM符号内相邻的2个CRS在频域上间隔6个子载波。同时,倒数第3个OFDM符号中的CRS和第1个OFDM符号中的CRS在频域上个间隔3个子载波。
当小区使用2个CRS时,第1个天线端口(天线端口0)CRS与第2个天线端口上(天线端口1)的CRS在频域上复用,二者在频域上偏移了3个子载波。
当小区使用4个CRS时,第3个天线端口上(天线端口2)的CRS和第4个天线端口上(天线端口3)的参考信号在频域上复用,二者在频域上偏移了3个子载波。第3个和第4个天线端口上的CRS在每个时隙的第2个OFDM符号上传输。这样第3个和第4个天线端口就与第1个和第2个天线端口上的参考信号在时域上进行了复用。
2)DSS:
DSS指NR和LTE动态共享同一段频谱的技术。
如图2所示,图2为本申请实施例提供的一种LTE和NR动态频谱共享示意图。请参见图2,LTE和NR动态共享一个频段。示例性的,在时域维度上,DSS支持以1ms为周期的瞬时共享,即每1ms进行一次频谱资源的协调调度。在频域维度上,DSS支持以1RB为粒度的动态共享,根据LTE侧和NR侧的业务量需求进行动态资源分配。
3)PDCCH DMRS资源映射:
如图3所示,图3为本申请实施例提供的一种PDCCH DMRS资源映射示意图。请参见图3,PDCCH资源分配基本组成单位可以为资源元素组(Resource Element Group,REG)。REG可以由时域上的一个OFDM符号、及频域上12个子载波(即1个RB)来定义。
PDCCH DMRS又可以称之为NR PDCCH DMRS,为用于解调NR PDCCH的参考信号。例如,用于映射PDCCH DMRS的3个RE均匀分布在NR PDCCH映射到的每个REG内,该3个RE可以为REG内子载波1、子载波5和子载波9对应的RE。
在DSS技术中,网络设备映射NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS时有多种不 同的情况,下面结合图4-图5,示例性的对NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS的传输方式进行说明。
以LTE CRS端口数量为4、小区特定的频率偏移为0为例。一种可能的传输方式如图4所示,图4为基于DSS技术的一种NR PDCCH DMRS资源映射示意图。请参见图4,LTE CRS的频域位置为子载波0、子载波3、子载波6和子载波9。NR PDCCH在符号1和符号2上传输。
符号1上同时可以传输LTE CRS。在有LTE CRS的RE上,网络设备可以打掉NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS。也就是说,若LTE CRS与NR PDCCH或者PDCCH DMRS重叠,网络设备可以打掉重叠RE上的NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS。例如,符号1的子载波1和子载波5上传输PDCCH DMRS;子载波9上PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备打掉了PDCCH DMRS;子载波0、子载波3和子载波6上,NR PDCCH和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备打掉了NR PDCCH。
符号2不用于传输LTE CRS。符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9用于传输PDCCH DMRS。符号2的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。
以LTE CRS端口数量为4、小区特定的频率偏移为0为例,另一种可能的传输方式如图5所示,图5为基于DSS技术的另一种NR PDCCH DMRS资源映射示意图。请参见图5,LTE CRS的频域位置为子载波0、子载波3、子载波6和子载波9。NR PDCCH在符号1和符号2上传输。
符号1上同时可以传输LTE CRS。在有LTE CRS的符号上,网络设备只传输NR PDCCH,不传输PDCCH DMRS。在有LTE CRS的RE上,网络设备可以打掉NR PDCCH。例如,符号1的子载波0、子载波3、子载波6和子载波9上NR PDCCH和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备打掉了NR PDCCH;符号1的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。
符号2不用于传输LTE CRS。符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9用于传输PDCCH DMRS。符号2的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。
如图6所示,图6为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统架构的示意图。请参见图6,该通信系统包括:网络设备和终端设备。
上述通信系统架构中,网络设备可以为下一代基站(next generation node B,gNB),网络设备支持NR和LTE之间的DSS技术。
终端设备可以基于NR与网络设备通信。例如,终端设备可以接收网络设 备发送的NR PDCCH,并可以通过PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计。应该理解的是,终端设备的数量可以为一个或多个,对此本申请实施例不做限定。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例描述的系统架构是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的问题,同样适用。
下面,对相关技术中,终端设备的信道估计方式进行详细说明。
如图4-图5所述,网络设备传输PDCCH DMRS时,存在多种不同的情况。针对网络设备传输PDCCH DMRS的不同情况,终端设备至少可以通过如下3种方式进行信道估计:
方式1:终端设备采用所有映射NR PDCCH的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
方式2:终端设备采用只映射NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计,即采用不映射在LTE CRS的符号对应的RE上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
方式3:针对有LTE CRS的符号,终端设备采用有用RE上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计;针对只映射NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS的符号,终端设备采用该符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。这里的有用RE可以理解为:PDCCH DMRS所占用的RE、且与LTE CRS所占用的RE不重叠或不碰撞。
终端设备针对NR PDCCH进行信道估计时,需要根据不同的LTE CRS资源映射形式,进行不同的PDCCH DMRS处理。例如,终端设备需要根据LTE CRS的频率偏移、天线端口的数量、带宽和载波频率等,确定LTE CRS的位置。终端设备的信道估计复杂度较高。
有鉴于此,本申请实施例通过网络设备向终端设备发送指示信息,以使终端设备可以根据指示信息确定信道估计方式,从而降低了终端设备的信道估计复杂度。
下面以具体地实施例对本申请的技术方案进行详细说明。下面这几个具体的实施例可以相互结合,对于相同或相似的概念或过程可能在某些实施例不再赘述。
图7为本申请实施例提供的一种信道估计方法的流程示意图。如图7所示,本实施例的方法包括:
S701、网络设备确定PDCCH DMRS的资源映射类型。
网络设备可以为第五代移动通信技术(5thgeneration,5G)NR系统中的gNB。
PDCCH DMRS为解调NR PDCCH的参考信号,PDCCH DMRS可以用于对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
PDCCH DMRS资源映射可以为,由网络设备执行的PDCCH DMRS的传输资源的分配。
PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型又可以称为PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式等。示例的,PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型用于指示PDCCH DMRS在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元的映射情况。例如,PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式可以用于指示不在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元上映射PDCCH DMRS。或者,PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式可以用于指示在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元上映射PDCCH DMRS。
应该理解的是,网络设备可以根据时频域中的可用资源等信息,确定一种PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式。
S702、网络设备向终端设备发送第一指示信息。
相应的,终端设备从网络设备接收第一指示信息。
终端设备可以为支持NR网络制式的电子设备。例如,终端设备可以为支持NR网络制式的车辆、车载终端或者车载设备,也可以是用户终端、移动设备或者边缘设备,还可以是路侧设备等。
第一指示信息用于指示PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型。
第一指示信息包括但不限于为系统信息广播(System Information Block,SIB)、终端设备专有(UE-specific)信令或者其他系统消息。本申请实施例对第一指示信息的具体形式不做限定。例如,终端设备专有信令可以为PDCCH配置(PDCCH-config)信令。
一种可能的实现方式中,第一指示信息还可以用于指示信道估计方式。
网络设备可以根据PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,确定信道估计方式,并通过第一指示信息向终端设备发送信道估计方式。
信道估计方式可以为,通过所有映射NR PDCCH的符号上的PDCCH  DMRS进行信道估计;或者,信道估计方式可以为,通过不映射LTE CRS的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
具体而言,第一指示信息可以包括预设比特位的取值。预设比特位的取值可以为第一值或者第二值。预设比特位的取值为第一值(例如,第一值可以为0)时,信道估计方式可以为通过所有映射NR PDCCH的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计;预设比特位的取值为第二值(例如,第二值可以为1)时,信道估计方式可以为通过不映射LTE CRS的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。或者,
第一指示信息可以包括预设参数的状态。预设参数的状态可以为启用(enabled)状态或者禁用(disenabled)状态。预设参数的状态为启用状态时,信道估计方式可以为,通过不映射LTE CRS的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计;预设参数的状态为禁用状态时,信道估计方式可以为,通过所有映射NR PDCCH的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
一种可能的实现方式中,PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型与PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元中用于信道估计的资源单元关联。
资源单元可以为传输PDCCH DMRS的基本资源单元,例如,资源单元可以为RE。也就是说,终端设备和网络设备之间可以以资源单元为粒度进行通信。例如,网络设备可以在一个或多个资源单元上发送PDCCH DMRS。或者,终端设备可以在一个或多个资源单元上接收PDCCH DMRS。
具体而言,针对任意一种PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,网络设备采用该资源映射类型时,终端设备可以采用PDCCH DMRS映射到的全部资源单元上传输的PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS进行信道估计,或者,终端设备可以采用PDCCH DMRS映射到的部分资源单元上传输的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。也就是说,任意一种PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型可以对应一种或多种信道估计方式。
一种可能的实现方式中,网络设备还可以向终端设备发送第二指示信息。
第二指示信息用于指示PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元中用于信道估计的资源单元。
第二指示信息包括但不限于为系统信息广播或者其他系统消息。本申请实施例对第二指示信息的具体形式不做限定。
具体而言,网络设备可以根据PDCCH DMRS资源映射情况、以及LTE  CRS对NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS的干扰情况,指示终端设备根据指定的一个或多个符号上接收的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。例如,LTE CRS对NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS干扰不严重时,网络设备可以通过第二指示信息,指示终端设备采用所有映射NR PDCCH的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计;LTE CRS对NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS干扰严重时,网络设备可以通过第二指示信息,指示终端设备采用只映射NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS的符号上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计,即采用不映射在LTE CRS的符号对应的RE上的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
示例性的,假设PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元对应的符号为符号1和符号2。符号1上还可以传输LTE CRS。符号2上只用于传输NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS。当LTE CRS对NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS干扰不严重时,网络设备可以通过第二指示信息,指示终端设备采用符号1和符号2上传输的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。当LTE CRS对NR PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS干扰严重时,网络设备可以通过第二指示信息,指示终端设备采用符号2上传输的PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
S703、终端设备根据PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,确定N个资源单元。
N个资源单元为PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元,N为大于或等于1的正整数。
本申请实施例中涉及的资源单元可以为传输PDCCH DMRS的基本资源单元,例如,资源单元可以为RE。
终端设备可以根据第一指示信息指示的PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,确定该PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型对应的N个资源单元。该N个资源单元可以位于一个符号上,或者该N个资源单元也可以位于至少两个符号上。例如,N个资源单元中的部分资源单元位于一个符号上,另外一部分资源单元位于另一个符号上。
示例性的,以NR PDCCH映射到的符号为两个为例。其中一个符号上有LTE CRS,另一个符号上没有LTE CRS。若第一指示信息指示的PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型为:网络设备只在没有LTE CRS的符号上传输PDCCH DMRS,则PDCCH DMRS映射到的N资源单元位于同一符号上。若第一指示信息指示的PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型为:网络设备在NR PDCCH映射到的所有符号上均传输PDCCH DMRS,则PDCCH DMRS映射到的N资源单 元位于不同的符号上。
S704、终端设备在N个资源单元上接收信号。
示例的,信号可以包括PDCCH DMRS,或者信号可以包括PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS。
终端设备根据资源映射方式确定N个资源单元后,可以从该N个资源单元上接收PDCCH DMRS,或者可以从该N个资源单元上接收PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS。
需要说明的是,当PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式指示在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元上映射PDCCH DMRS时,网络设备至少可以采用如下3种方式传输PDCCH DMRS。相应的,网络设备采用不同的方式传输PDCCH DMRS时,终端设备接收的信号不同。
方式1:打掉(puncture)PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS。
该方式中,针对LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元,网络设备可以打掉该资源单元上的PDCCH;针对LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元,网络设备可以打掉该资源单元上的PDCCH DMRS。
相应的,终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS;终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS。
方式2:重叠传输(superposition)。
该方式中,NR网络设备可以发送PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS;LTE网络设备可以发送LTE CRS。
相应的,终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS和PDCCH;终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS和PDCCH DMRS。
方式3:打掉(puncture)天线端口2(port 2)和天线端口3(port 3)上的LTE CRS。
该方式中,网络设备可以打掉天线端口2和天线端口3上的LTE CRS,即符号1上不传输LTE CRS。
相应的,终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元上,接收的信号为PDCCH;终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元上,接收的信号为PDCCH DMRS。
S705、终端设备根据在N个资源单元上接收到的信号,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
信道估计可以为,对用于传输信号的信道的特性参数进行估计的过程。例如,信道的特性参数可以为信道系数、信道噪声等。
本申请实施例中,终端设备可以根据接收到的全部PDCCH DMRS,或者部分PDCCH DMRS,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
示例性的,假设NR PDCCH映射到的资源单元对应的符号为符号1和符号2;符号1同时用于映射LTE CRS。
若PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式指示不在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元上映射PDCCH DMRS,则终端设备可以根据在符号2上接收的全部PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计。
若PDCCH DMRS资源映射方式指示在LTE CRS所在符号对应的资源单元上映射PDCCH DMRS,则终端设备可以根据在符号1和符号2上接收的全部PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计,或者终端设备可以根据在符号2上接收的部分PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计。
本实施例提供的信道估计方法中,终端设备可以根据第一指示信息指示的PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,确定该PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型对应的N个资源单元,并可以根据在该N个资源单元上接收的PDCCH DMRS对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。也就是说,终端设备可以通过第一指示信息确定进行信道估计的方式,从而降低了终端设备的信道估计复杂度。
在图7实施例的基础上,第一指示信息指示的PDCCH DMRS的资源映射至少包括如下2种情况:
情况1:PDCCH DMRS资源映射到的N个资源单元在2个符号上。
情况2:PDCCH DMRS资源映射到的N个资源单元在1个符号上。
下面,结合图8,对上述情况1进行说明。
图8为本申请实施例提供的另一种信道估计方法的流程示意图。如图8所示,本实施例的方法包括:
S801、终端设备接收第一指示信息。
S801的实现方式可以参见S702的详细描述,此处不做赘述。
S802、终端设备根据PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,在第一符号和第二符号上确定N个资源单元。
N个资源单元为PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元,N为大于或等于1的正整数。
本实施例中,PDCCH DMRS的资源映射类型可以为:NR PDCCH的时域资源包括第一符号和第二符号;N个资源单元包括与第一符号对应的M个资源单元、和与第二符号对应的M个资源单元,N=2M,且M为正整数;其中,与第一符号对应的M个资源单元中K个资源单元与LTE CRS映射到的资源单元重叠;K为正整数。
终端设备可以根据上述PDCCH DMRS的资源映射类型,在第一符号和第二符号上确定N个资源单元。
具体而言,用于传输NR PDCCH的第一符号和第二符号中,第二符号上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS不重叠,且第二符号中有M个资源单元映射有PDCCH DMRS。第一符号上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS重叠,第一符号中也有M个资源单元映射有PDCCH DMRS,但该M个资源单元中有K个资源单元还映射有LTE CRS。此时,终端设备可以确定N个资源单元为第一符号上的M个资源单元和第二符号上的M个资源单元。
示例性的,如图9所示,图9为本申请实施例提供的一种资源映射类型示意图。如图9所示,以PDCCH的聚合等级为1(即PDCCH由一个控制信道元素(Control Channel Element,CCE)组成)为例,CCE可以包括REG0、REG1……REG5。每个REG在频域上占用12个子载波,在时域上占用1个符号。REG0、REG2和REG4可以占用时域上同一个符号。REG1、REG3和REG5可以占用时域上同一个符号。以REG0占用符号1、REG1占用符号2为例。
符号2上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS不重叠。符号1上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS重叠。符号2中映射有PDCCH DMRS的资源单元分别为子载波1、子载波5和子载波9。符号1中映射有PDCCH DMRS的资源单元也分别为子载波1、子载波5和子载波9,同时符号1中的子载波1还映射有LTE CRS。则REG0中映射PDCCH DMRS的资源单元的数量3,REG1中映射PDCCH DMRS的资源单元的数量3;REG0和REG1中同时映射PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS的资源单元的数量1。以此类推,可以确定PDCCH中N为18,M为9,K为3。
S803、终端设备在确定的N个资源单元上接收信号。
本实施例中,第二符号上的M个资源单元只映射有PDCCH DMRS。第一符号上的M个资源单元中有K个资源单元同时映射有PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS,该M个资源单元中排除该K个资源单元以外的其余资源单元只映射有PDCCH DMRS。
终端设备可以在第一符号上的M个资源单元和第二符号上的M个资源单元接收PDCCH DMRS。
需要说明的是,当网络设备采用的PDCCH DMRS资源传输方式不同时,终端设备接收的信号不同,网络设备至少可以采用如下3种方式传输PDCCH DMRS:
方式1:打掉(puncture)PDCCH/PDCCH DMRS。
该方式中,针对LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元,网络设备可以打掉该资源单元上的PDCCH;针对LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元,网络设备可以打掉该资源单元上的PDCCH DMRS。
相应的,终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS;终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元,接收的信号为LTE CRS。

方式3:打掉(puncture)天线端口2(port 2)和天线端口3(port 3)上的LTE CRS。
该方式中,网络设备可以打掉天线端口2和天线端口3上的LTE CRS,即符号1上不传输LTE CRS。
相应的,终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH重叠的资源单元上,接收的信号为PDCCH;终端设备在LTE CRS与PDCCH DMRS重叠的资源单元上,接收的信号为PDCCH DMRS。
S804、终端设备根据在N个资源单元上接收到的信号,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
本实施例中,终端设备可以根据在K个资源单元上接收到的LTE CRS、以及在N个资源单元中除K个资源单元以外的其它资源单元上接收到的PDCCH DMRS,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计;或者,根据在与第二符号对应的M个资源单元上接收到的PDCCH DMRS,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
具体而言,终端设备可以根据N个资源单元上接收的所有PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计,或者终端设备可以根据第二符号上的M个资源单元上接收到的PDCCH DMRS,进行NR PDCCH信道估计。
示例性的,请参见图9,以REG0和REG1为例,REG0占用符号1、REG1占用符号2。终端设备在符号1的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9,以及符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9上接收到PDCCH DMRS。同时,符号1的子载波还用于传输LTE CRS。该情况下,终端设备可以根据符号1的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9,以及符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9上接收到PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计;或者,终端设备也可以根据符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9上接收到PDCCH DMRS进行信道估计。
本实施例提供的信道估计方法中,终端设备可以根据PDCCH DMRS的映射类型,在第一符号和第二符号上确定N个映射PDCCH DMRS的资源单元,并可以根据该N个资源单元上接收的PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计,或者根据第二符号上M个资源单元上接收的PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计,从而降低了终端设备的信道估计复杂度。
下面,结合图10,对上述情况2进行说明。
图10为本申请实施例提供的又一种信道估计方法的流程示意图。如图10所示,本实施例的方法包括:
S1001、终端设备接收第一指示信息。
S1001的实现方式可以参见S702的详细描述,此处不做赘述。
S1002、终端设备根据PDCCH DMRS资源映射类型,在第二符号上确定N个资源单元。
N个资源单元为PDCCH DMRS映射到的资源单元,N为大于或等于1的正整数。
本实施例中,PDCCH DMRS的资源映射类型可以为:NR PDCCH的时域资源包括第一符号和第二符号;其中,N个资源单元与第二符号对应,第一符号对应的资源单元包括LTE CRS映射到的资源单元。第二符号对应的资源 单元不包括LTE CRS映射到的资源单元。
具体而言,用于传输NR PDCCH的第一符号和第二符号中,第一符号上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS重叠。第二符号上NR PDCCH与LTE CRS不重叠。用于映射PDCCH DMRS的N个资源单元在第二符号上,第一符号上不包括映射PDCCH DMRS的资源单元。
S1003、终端设备在确定的N个资源单元上接收信号。
本实施例中,第二符号上的N个资源单元只用于映射PDCCH DMRS。终端设备可以在该N个资源单元上接收PDCCH DMRS。
S1004、终端设备根据在N个资源单元上接收到的信号,对NR PDCCH进行信道估计。
终端设备在第二符号上的N个资源单元中接收PDCCH DMRS,并可以根据从该N个资源单元中接收的PDCCH DMRS,进行NR PDCCH信道估计。
本实施例提供的信道估计方法中,终端设备可以根据PDCCH DMRS的映射类型,在第二符号上确定N个映射PDCCH DMRS的资源单元,并可以根据该N个资源单元上接收的PDCCH DMRS进行NR PDCCH信道估计,从而降低了终端设备的信道估计复杂度。
需要说明的是,NR PDCCH也可以在3个符号上进行传输。上述实施例仅以NR PDCCH在2个符号上传输为例进行说明,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定。
下面,以NR PDCCH在3个符号上进行传输为例,结合图11-图12,示例性的对NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS的传输方式进行说明。
一种可能的传输方式如图11所示,图11为基于DSS技术的又一种NR PDCCH DMRS资源映射示意图。请参见图11,以LTE CRS端口数量为4、小区特定的频率偏移为0为例,LTE CRS的频域位置为子载波0、子载波3、子载波6和子载波9。NR PDCCH在符号1、符号2和符号3上传输。
符号1上同时可以传输LTE CRS。在有LTE CRS的RE上,网络设备可以打掉NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS。也就是说,若LTE CRS与NR PDCCH或者PDCCH DMRS重叠,网络设备可以打掉重叠RE上的NR PDCCH和PDCCH DMRS。例如,符号1的子载波1和子载波5上传输PDCCH DMRS;子载波9上PDCCH DMRS和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备打掉了PDCCH DMRS;子载波0、子载波3和子载波6上,NR PDCCH和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备 打掉了NR PDCCH。

符号1上同时可以传输LTE CRS。在有LTE CRS的符号上,网络设备只传输NR PDCCH,不传输PDCCH DMRS。在有LTE CRS的RE上,网络设备可以打掉NR PDCCH。例如,符号1的子载波0、子载波3、子载波6和子载波9上NR PDCCH和LTE CRS重叠,网络设备打掉了NR PDCCH;符号1的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。
符号2和符号3不用于传输LTE CRS。符号2的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9用于传输PDCCH DMRS;符号2的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。符号3的子载波1、子载波5和子载波9用于传输PDCCH DMRS;符号3的其余子载波上传输NR PDCCH。
