如图1所示,本公开实施例提供的一种传输指示信息的方法可应用于无线通信系统100,该无线通信系统可以包括第一网络设备102、第二网络设备103以及用户设备101。
其中,用户设备101被配置为支持载波聚合,并可连接至第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103的多个载波单元,包括一个主载波单元以及一个或多个辅载波单元。
应理解,以上无线通信系统100既可适用于低频场景,也可适用于高频场景。无线通信系统100的应用场景包括但不限于长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)系统、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for micro wave access,WiMAX)通信系统、云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network,CRAN)系统、未来的第五代(5th-Generation,5G)系统、新无线(new radio,NR)通信系统或未来的演进的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)系统等。
以上所示用户设备101可以是终端(terminal)、接入终端、终端单元、终端站、移动台(mobile station,MS)、远方站、远程终端、移动终端(mobile terminal)、无线通信设备、终端代理或终端设备等。该用户设备101可具备无线收发功能,其能够与一个或多个通信系统的一个或多个网络设备进行通信(如无线通信),并接受网络设备提供的网络服 务,这里的网络设备包括但不限于图示网络设备。
其中,用户设备101可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理personal digital assistant,PDA)设备、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、未来5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的终端设备等。
第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103可以是接入网设备(或称接入网站点)。其中,接入网设备是指有提供网络接入功能的设备,如无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)基站等等。第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103具体可包括基站(base station,BS),或包括基站以及用于控制基站的无线资源管理设备等。该网络设备102还可包括中继站(中继设备)、接入点以及未来5G网络中的基站、未来演进的PLMN网络中的基站或者NR基站等。第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103可以是可穿戴设备或车载设备。第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103也可以是具有通信模块的通信芯片。
比如,第一网络设备102或第二网络设备103包括但不限于:5G中的下一代基站(gnodeB,gNB)、LTE系统中的演进型节点B(evolved node B,eNB)、无线网络控制器(radio network controller,RNC)、WCDMA系统中的节点B(node B,NB)、CRAN系统下的无线控制器、基站控制器(basestation controller,BSC)、GSM系统或CDMA系统中的基站收发台(base transceiver station,BTS)、家庭基站(例如,home evolved nodeB,或home node B,HNB)、基带单元(baseband unit,BBU)、传输点(transmitting and receiving point,TRP)、发射点(transmitting point,TP)或移动交换中心等。
结合图1所示,第一网络设备102和第二网络设备103是位于同一小区内的TRP,包含多TRP节点的该小区可以实现更好的覆盖。第一网络设备102可以是该小区内的主基站。第一网络设备102和第二网络设备103共享该小区信息,用户设备101可通过任一TRP接入该小区。在该多TRP的场景中,每个TRP都可以向用户设备101下发配置激活自身对应接收波束的信令,以便于用户设备101可以切换至该TRP对应的接收波束测量该TRP。
当需要用户设备101同时切换至该多个TRP对应的波束,以同时完成该多个TRP的测量时,由于多个TRP配置激活自身对应接收波束的方式可能不同,用户设备101不能同时接收到该多个TRP对应的配置激活的信令,因此用户设备101无法同时完成该多个TRP对应的波束切换。
本公开实施例中提供了一种传输指示信息的方法。参照图2,图2是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种传输指示信息的方法,如图2所示,该方法包括步骤S201~S203,具体的:
步骤S201,第一数量个网络设备按设定配置方式向用户设备101发送第一指示信息。 其中,第一数量个网络设备包括一个第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103。
步骤S202,用户设备101接收第一数量个网络设备按设定配置方式发送的第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示对应的网络设备配置激活的传输配置指示状态TCI state,第一数量个网络设备包括同一小区内的第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103。
步骤S203,用户设备101在同一时刻执行第一数量个波束的波束切换,采用波束切换后的第一数量个激活TCI state对应的接收波束同时执行对应网络设备的移动性测量。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一数量为大于或等于2,在第一数量个网络设备也即第一数量个TRP中包含:一个第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103。该第一数量个TRP均位于相同小区。其中,第一网络设备102可以是该第一数量个TRP中的主基站。
在一示例中,第一网络设备102为TRP1,第二网络设备103分别为TRP2和TRP3。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101可采用不同的接收波束接收对应TRP的信号。在一些场景下,例如当用户设备101的位置发生变化,用户设备101接收每个TRP所采用的接收波束也将发生变化,此时需要进行波束切换。例如,对于TRP1而言,用户设备101首先采用一接收波束接收TRP1的参考信号。而当用户设备101位置发生变化,用户设备101需要进行波束切换,采用波束切换后的新的接收波束接收该TRP1的参考信号。
在此波束切换场景下,用户设备101需根据各TRP配置的激活的传输配置指示(Transmission Configuration Indicator,TCI)state,确定该TCI state对应的新的接收波束,然后执行波束切换以更新所采用的接收波束。
在一些可能的实施方式中,在波束切换场景之前,对于多TRP中的任一TRP而言,其可向用户设备101发送用于指示该TRP对应的TCI state表(list),该TCI state list中可包含该TRP对应的多个TCI state,每个TCI state对应一个接收波束。
然后在涉及波束切换的场景中,该TRP通过向用户设备101发送第一指示信息,指示本次被配置激活的TCI state。用户设备101在接收到第一指示信息后,确定激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,并执行波束切换以切换至该接收波束。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101在接收到多TRP分别发送的第一指示信息后,需在对应处理时延内处理(如解调)后,才可获知激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,并执行切换。对于携带第一指示信息的信令不同,用户设备101的处理时延也不同。
在一些可能的实施方式中,多TRP按设定配置方式下发对应的第一指示信息后,用户设备101将在相同的时刻处理完毕,获知每个TRP的激活的TCI state对应的接收波束。从而用户设备101在相同的时刻执行切换。
在一些可能的实施方式中,设定配置方式用于指示:采用相同类型的控制信令及相同的发送时刻执行发送;或者,设定配置方式用于指示:采用与控制信令对应的发送时刻执行发送。
在一些可能的实施方式中,控制信令为无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)信令、媒体接入控制层控制单元(Media Access Control Control Element,MAC-CE)信令 或者下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101同时执行多个接收波束切换后,采用切换后的多个接收波束同时执行对应TRP的移动性测量。例如,对于任一TRP而言,用户设备101通过切换后的接收波束接收该TRP的参考信号(Reference Signal,RS),测量RS的参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Received Power,RSRP),并可上报对应的测量结果。

在一些可能的实施方式中,图4是根据一示例性实施例示出的用户设备101的接收波束的示意图,结合图4所示说明用户设备101支持接收波束的能力。其中,用户设备101在FR2频段下采用8个接收波束扫描的方式可实现更好的接收角度覆盖。例如,8个接收波束分别以R1、R2、……、R7、R8表示,每个接收波束覆盖的范围为15°,通过调整不同接收波束接收,8个接收波束可覆盖120°范围。
在一些可能的实施方式中,结合不同用户设备101的能力,其在同一时刻支持的接收波束的数量可能不同。比如,第一数量为2,表明用户设备在同一时刻能够支持两个接收波束,例如该两个接收波束分别为R1和R8。

在一示例中,在第一网络设备102向用户设备101发送自身对应第一指示信息的场景中,第二数量=(第一数量-1)。
在其他示例中,第一网络设备102也可以不向用户设备101发送自身对应的第一指示信息。即在第一网络设备102不向用户设备101发送自身对应第一指示信息的场景中,第二数量=第一数量,即本示例中通过小区内第一数量个第二网络设备101发送第一指示信息。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一数量个TRP的场景中,第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103均位于同一小区。第一网络设备102可以是第一数量个TRP中的主基站。

在一示例中,第一网络设备102为TRP1,第二网络设备103分别为TRP2和TRP3。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101可以是接收第一数量个网络设备中第一网络设备按设定配置方式发送的第一指示信息,和/或接收第一数量个网络设备中第二网络设备按设定配置方式发送的第一指示信息。
在一示例中,第一数量个网络设备中包括:一个第一网络设备102和第二数量个第二网络设备103。该第一数量个网络设备中的每个网络设备,可以分别向用户设备101发送自身对应的第一指示信息,以指示自身对应的配置激活的TCI state。
在一示例中,第一网络设备102作为主基站,用于接收用户设备101的能力信息并向第二网络设备103发送第二指示信息。本示例中,第二数量等于第一数量,可以通过各第二网络设备103向用户设备分别发送对应的第一指示信息,
在一些可能的实施方式中,对于第一数量个TRP中的任一TRP而言,其可向用户设备101发送用于指示该TRP对应的TCI state list。在涉及波束切换的场景中,该TRP通过向用户设备101发送第一指示信息,指示本次被配置激活的TCI state。用户设备101切换至该激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,以接收该TRP的参考信号。
在一示例中,TRP1向用户设备101发送下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI),配置TRP1对应的TCI state list。在涉及波束切换的场景中,TRP1发送第一指示信息配置TCI state list中本次激活的TCI state。用户设备101切换至激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,接收TRP1的信号。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一数量个TRP按设定配置方式下发对应的第一指示信息后,用户设备101将在相同的时刻处理完毕,获知每个TRP的激活的TCI state对应的接收波束。从而用户设备101在相同的时刻执行切换。
在一些可能的实施方式中,设定配置方式用于指示:采用相同类型的控制信令及相同的发送时刻执行发送;或者,设定配置方式用于指示:采用与控制信令对应的发送时刻执行发送。
在一些可能的实施方式中,控制信令为RRC信令、MAC-CE信令或者DCI。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101同时执行多个接收波束切换后,采用切换后的多个接收波束同时执行对应TRP的移动性测量。例如,对于任一TRP而言,用户设备101通过切换后的接收波束接收该TRP的RS,测量RS的RSRP。
本公开实施例中,同一小区内的多个网络设备可按照设定配置方式下发对应的激活的TCI state,用户设备101根据网络设备按设定配置方式下发的TCI state,实现多个接收波束的同时切换,以能够同时进行多网络设备的测量,有利于降低测量时延。
本公开实施例中提供了一种接收指示信息的方法,被用户设备101执行。参照图6,图6是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种接收指示信息的方法。
在设定配置方式用于指示:采用与控制信令对应的发送时刻执行发送的场景中,如图6所示,该方法包括步骤S601~S602,具体的:
步骤S601,在第一数量个网络设备中,用户设备101分别接收每个网络设备在对应发送时刻发送的控制信令,控制信令用于指示网络设备对应的第一指示信息。第一指示信息用于指示网络设备对应的激活的传输配置指示状态TCI state,第一数量个网络设备包括同一小区内的一个第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103。
步骤S602,用户设备101在同一时刻执行第一数量个波束的波束切换,采用波束切换后的第一数量个激活TCI state对应的接收波束同时执行对应网络设备的移动性测量。
在一些可能的实施方式中,用户设备101在接收到第一数量个TRP分别发送的第一指示信息后,需在对应处理时延内处理后,才可获知激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,并执行切换。对于携带第一指示信息的信令不同,用户设备101的处理时延也不同。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一网络设备102结合不同信令的处理时延,向各第二网络设备103告知不同信令对应的发送时刻。例如,在第二指示信息中指示不同类型信令对应的发送时刻。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一网络设备102和第二网络设备103根据所采用的信令,在该类型信令对应的发送时刻发送携带第一指示信息的信令。
在一些可能的实施方式中,控制信令为RRC信令、MAC-CE信令或者DCI。
在一些可能的实施方式中,RRC信令的处理时延>MAC-CE信令的处理时延>DCI的处理时延。因此,对于采用RRC信令的TRP,其发送时刻应早于发送其他信令的TRP。
在一些可能的实施方式中,不同类型信令按照时间轴不同顺序先后发送,用户设备101接收到信令的时间也会不同。
本公开实施例中,网络设备按照时间轴不同顺序发送第一指示信息,使得用户设备101可以在不同的起始处理时刻进行处理,从而在相同的时刻处理完毕,获知每个TRP的激活的TCI state对应的接收波束,进而在相同的时刻执行多个接收波束的切换。
本公开实施例中提供了一种接收指示信息的方法,被用户设备101执行。
在设定配置方式用于指示:采用与控制信令对应的发送时刻执行发送的场景中,该方法包括步骤S601、步骤S601’和S602,具体的:
步骤S601,在第一数量个网络设备中,用户设备101分别接收每个网络设备在对应发送时刻发送的控制信令,控制信令用于指示网络设备对应的第一指示信息。第一指示信息用于指示网络设备对应的激活的传输配置指示状态TCI state,第一数量个网络设备包括同一小区内的一个第一网络设备102和至少一个第二网络设备103。

步骤S602-2,用户设备101在同一时刻执行第一数量个波束的波束切换,采用波束切换后的第一数量个激活TCI state对应的接收波束同时执行对应网络设备的移动性测量。
在一些可能的实施方式中,控制信令为RRC信令、MAC-CE信令或者DCI。
在一些可能的实施方式中,若多个TRP的控制信令相同,其对应的发送时刻也相同。
在一些可能的实施方式中,RRC信令的处理时延>MAC-CE信令的处理时延>DCI的处理时延。因此,对于采用RRC信令的TRP,其发送时刻应早于发送其他信令的TRP。
在一些可能的实施方式中,不同类型信令按照时间轴不同顺序先后发送,用户设备101接收到信令的时间也会不同。对于处理时延较长的信令,用户设备101会先收到、并以收到时刻作为起始处理时刻先进行处理。
在一个示例中:
第一网络设备102为TRP1,第二网络设备103有两个,分别为TRP2和TRP3。
结合图7所示,TRP1在t1时刻发送RRC信令,RRC信令中指示TRP1对应的激活的TCI state1。TRP2在t2时刻发送MAC-CE信令,MAC-CE信令中指示TRP2对应的激活的TCI state2。TRP3在t3时刻发送DCI,DCI中指示TRP3对应的激活的TCI state3。
用户设备101在t1’时刻接收到RRC信令,并以该t1’时刻为起始处理时刻在RRC信令对应的处理时延T1内解调RRC信令,处理完成的时刻为t4。
用户设备101在t2’时刻接收到MAC-CE信令,并以该t2’时刻为起始处理时刻在MAC-CE信令对应的处理时延T2内解调MAC-CE信令,处理完成的时刻为t4。
用户设备101在t3’时刻接收到DCI,并以该t3’时刻为起始处理时刻在DCI对应的处理时延T3内解调DCI,处理完成的时刻为t4。
在t4时刻,用户设备101同时执行波束切换,以同时赋形形成TCI state1对应的接收波束R1、TCI state2对应的接收波束R2以及TCI state3对应的接收波束R3,以该三个接收波束同时执行对应TRP的测量。例如,通过R1执行TRP1的测量,通过R2执行TRP2的测量,通过R3执行TRP3的测量。
本示例中,结合不同TRP的发送时刻,用户设备101按照时间轴上的不同激活时间进 行处理,从而在同一时刻进行波束切换。

在一示例中,第一数量个TRP均采用MAC-CE信令发送对应的第一指示信息。
在一示例中,第一数量个TRP均采用DCI发送对应的第一指示信息。
在一些可能的实施方式中,第一数量个TRP所采取的信令类型相同,用户设备101的处理时延也相同。因此第一数量个个TRP的发送时刻相同,用户设备101在相同的起始处理时刻对每个TRP信令进行处理,从而有利于同时执行切换。
在一个示例中:
第一网络设备102为TRP1,第二网络设备103有两个,分别为TRP2和TRP3。
结合图9所示,TRP1在t1时刻发送指示激活的TCI state1的RRC信令,TRP2在t1时刻发送指示激活的TCI state2的RRC信令,TRP3在t1时刻发送指示激活的TCI state3的RRC信令。
用户设备101在t1’时刻接收到三个TRP对应的RRC信令,并以该t1’时刻为起始处理时刻、在RRC信令对应的处理时延T1内同时处理三个RRC信令。处理完成的时刻为t4。
在t4时刻,用户设备101同时执行波束切换,以同时赋形形成TCI state1对应的接收波束R1、TCI state2对应的接收波束R2以及TCI state3对应的接收波束R3,以该三个接收波束同时执行对应TRP的测量。例如,通过R1执行TRP1的测量,通过R2执行TRP2的测量,通过R3执行TRP3的测量。
本示例中,不同TRP采用相同的发送时刻发送相同类型的控制信令,用户设备101同时接收到不同TRP的信令后进行同时处理,从而在同一时刻进行波束切换。

步骤S704,用户设备101在同一时刻执行第一数量个波束的波束切换,采用波束切换后的第一数量个激活TCI state对应的接收波束同时执行对应网络设备的移动性测量。

在一些可能的实施方式中,第一数量个TRP所采取的信令类型相同,用户设备101的处理时延也相同。因此第一数量个个TRP的发送时刻相同,用户设备101在相同的起始处理时刻对每个TRP信令进行处理,从而有利于同时执行切换。
本公开实施例中提供了一种接收指示信息的方法,被第二网络设备103执行。该方法包括步骤S1101~S1102”,具体的:
步骤S1101,第二网络设备103接收第一网络设备102发送的第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示用户设备101支持的TCI state的设定配置方式,第二网络设备103与第一网络设备102位于同一小区。

在一些可能的实施方式中,本实施例应用于设定配置方式用于指示:采用与控制信令对应的发送时刻执行发送的场景中。
在一些可能的实施方式中,控制信令为RRC信令、MAC-CE信令或者DCI。
在一些可能的实施方式中,RRC信令的处理时延>MAC-CE信令的处理时延>DCI的处理时延。因此,对于采用RRC信令的TRP,其发送时刻应早于发送其他信令的TRP。
在一些可能的实施方式中,不同类型信令按照时间轴不同顺序先后发送,用户设备101接收到信令的时间也会不同。对于处理时延较长的信令,用户设备101会先收到、并以收到时刻作为起始处理时刻先进行处理。
