本申请主张在2023年01月29日在中国提交的申请号为202310064545.8的中国专利的优先权,其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
本申请属于通信技术领域,具体涉及一种信道估计方法、装置、终端及可读存储介质。
目前,新空口(New Radio,NR)系统在频段1(FR1)即410MHz至7125MHz范围内需要的最小网络系统带宽为5MHz。该网络系统带宽即5MHz是目前支持终端在初始接入时所需要的同步信号,广播信道以及身份识别码(Identity document,ID)为0的控制资源集(Control resource set,CORESET),即CORESET 0在频域上所需要的最小带宽。
将来NR系统(Rel-18)将进一步演进,计划在小于5MHz的网络系统带宽进行网络部署。当控制资源集的配置带宽大于网络部署的系统带宽时,超出网络部署带宽的控制信道的频域资源,网络不会发送,终端打孔接收。也就是说,构成物理下行控制信道(Physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)候选(candidate)的资源单元组(Resource Element Group,REG)集合(bundle)在频域上只有一部分可以用来发送PDCCH以及解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal,DMRS)。
因此,在CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)如何对一个PDCCH候选进行信道估计,充分利用未超出网络部署带宽的资源来传输PDCCH候选,以提高控制信道信道估计的准确性成为亟待解决的问题。

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所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象,而不用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的术语在适当情况下可以互换,以便本申请的实施例能够以除了在这里图示或描述的那些以外的顺序实施,且“第一”、“第二”所区别的对象通常为一类,并不限定对象的个数,例如第一对象可以是一个,也可以是多个。此外,说明书以及权利要求中“和/或”表示所连接对象的至少其中之一,字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
值得指出的是,本申请实施例所描述的技术不限于长期演进型(Long Term Evolution,LTE)/LTE的演进(LTE-Advanced,LTE-A)系统,还可用于其他无线通信系统,诸如码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)、时分多址(Time Division Multiple Access,TDMA)、频分多址(Frequency Division Multiple Access,FDMA)、正交频分多址(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access,OFDMA)、单载波频分多址(Single-carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access,SC-FDMA)和其他系统。本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”常被可互换地使用,所描述的技术既可用于以上提及的系统和无线电技术,也可用于其他系统和无线电技术。以下描述出于示例目的描述了新空口(New Radio,NR)系统,并且在以下大部分描述中使用NR术语,但是这些技术也可应用于NR系统应用以外的应用,如第6代(6th Generation,6G)通信系统。
以下对本申请实施例中涉及到的相关术语进行名词解释:
1)、控制资源集(Control Resource Set,CORESET):如图1所示,定义了携带下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)的PDCCH在频域上占据的频域资源和在时域上占用的正交频分复用(Orthogonal frequency division multiplex,OFDM)符号数等信息。
资源单元(Resource Element,RE):由频域上一个子载波,时域上一个OFDM符号组成;
资源块(Ressource Block,RB):由12个RE组成;
资源单元组(Resource Element Group,REG):频域上一个RB(12个RE),时域上一个OFDM符号组成;
REG集合(Bundle):由多个(2个,3个或6个)REG组成,其数量L由无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)参数REG集合大小确定;
控制信道单元(Control-channel element,CCE):由6个REG组成。
对于一个PDCCH而言,其由一个或多个CCEs组成,而所分配的CCE数量根据聚合等级(Aggregation levels,ALs)的不同而不同,PDCCH所支持的聚合等级如下所示:
当AL=1,一个PDCCH由1个CCE组成;
当AL=2,一个PDCCH由2个CCE组成;
当AL=4,一个PDCCH由4个CCE组成;
当AL=6,一个PDCCH由6个CCE组成;
当AL=8,一个PDCCH由8个CCE组成;
当AL=16,一个PDCCH由16个CCE组成。
2)、搜索空间(Search Space,SS):定义了PDCCH起始OFDM符号编号以及PDCCH监测周期等信息。
NR中PDCCH信道有多种搜索空间,包括公共搜索空间和UE专用的搜索空间,如下表1所示。
表1
其中在Type0CSS所关联的CORESET的ID为0,即CORESET 0,Type0-PDCCH CSS由TS 38.213表2中定义了CCE聚合等级和在每个CCE聚合等级下PDCCH候选数量。
2)、信道估计
从上述协议得知,取决于高层RRC对预编码器粒度(precoder Granularity)的配
置,UE使用不同的DMRS RE集合来对precoder Granularity配置值为same As REG-bundle(即非宽带RS CORESET)和all Contiguous RBs(即宽带RS CORESET)的PDCCH候选进行信道估计。对于非宽带RS CORESET(预编码粒度=same As REG-bundle的CORESET),UE使用PDCCH候选的REG bundle内的DMRS RE。对于宽带RS CORESET(具有预编码器粒度=allContiguousRBs的CORESET),UE在CORESET中的连续RB的所有REG内使用DMRS RE,尝试解码PDCCH候选。
3)、CORESET 0
CORESET 0是一个特殊的CORESET,用于调度SIB1,其他的CORESET相关的参数都是通过RRC配置的,但是CORESET 0是在RRC建立之前就要调度,所以其参数是通过协议38.211预定义的。如下所示:
For CORESET 0configured by the ControlResourceSetZero IE:
andare defined by clause 13 of[5,TS 38.213];
the UE may assume interleaved mapping
CCE到REG的映射总是交织映射;
L=6;REG bundle size总是6.
R=2;
the UE may assume normal cyclic prefix when CORESET 0 is configured by MIB or SIB1;
the UE may assume the same precoding being used within a REG bundle.
由上述可知,现有协议中CORESET 0的REG bundle size总是为6,对其PDCCH候选的信道估计,终端认为一个REG bundle内使用的是相同的预编码,其信道估计的粒度是REG bundle。
若NR部署在3MHz或3.6MHz系统带宽上,按照现有CORESET 0的配置,3MHz或3.6MHz支持不了CORESET0的最小频域资源带宽即4.32MHz。对CORESET 0的某些配置如图2所示,构成PDCCH候选的一个REG bundle可能部分位于系统带宽外,部分位于系统带宽内。例如,REG bundle 7在CCE 3中,其中一
半REG(如45、46和47)在3MHz以外,而另一半REG(如42、43和44)在3MHz内。
图3示出本申请实施例可应用的一种无线通信系统的框图。无线通信系统包括终端11和网络侧设备12。其中,终端11可以是手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)或称为笔记本电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、掌上电脑、上网本、超级移动个人计算机(ultra-mobile personal computer,UMPC)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)/虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)设备、机器人、可穿戴式设备(Wearable Device)、车载设备(VUE)、行人终端(PUE)、智能家居(具有无线通信功能的家居设备,如冰箱、电视、洗衣机或者家具等)、游戏机、个人计算机(personal computer,PC)、柜员机或者自助机等终端侧设备,可穿戴式设备包括:智能手表、智能手环、智能耳机、智能眼镜、智能首饰(智能手镯、智能手链、智能戒指、智能项链、智能脚镯、智能脚链等)、智能腕带、智能服装等。需要说明的是,在本申请实施例并不限定终端11的具体类型。网络侧设备12可以包括接入网设备或核心网设备,其中,接入网设备12也可以称为无线接入网设备、无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)、无线接入网功能或无线接入网单元。接入网设备12可以包括基站、WLAN接入点或WiFi节点等,基站可被称为节点B、演进节点B(eNB)、接入点、基收发机站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)、无线电基站、无线电收发机、基本服务集(Basic Service Set,BSS)、扩展服务集(Extended Service Set,ESS)、家用B节点、家用演进型B节点、发送接收点(Transmitting Receiving Point,TRP)或所述领域中其他某个合适的术语,只要达到相同的技术效果,所述基站不限于特定技术词汇,需要说明的是,在本申请实施例中仅以NR系统中的基站为例进行介绍,并不限定基站的具体类型。
随着NR在Rel-18中通过5G-Advanced进入下一阶段,一些垂直行业和运营商已经计划在频分复用(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)的一些专用频谱上使用NR系统支持铁路通信、智能电网控制和公共安全。例如,欧洲的铁路行业已决定从GSM-R直接迁移到NR,并制定了从2025年左右开始的10年迁移计划,以及部署寿命可能持续几十年。其中,潜在的专用频谱至少包括欧洲的26频段用于公共保护和救灾、美国的28频段(SouthernLinc)、欧洲的铁路综合数字移动通信系统(Global System for Mobile Communications–Railway,GSM-R)和美国用于Anterix电力公司的900MHz-Band 8/n8。在这些专用频谱上部署的NR具有如下特点:
从网络的角度:
这些专用频谱部署在FDD sub1GHz上,其带宽在3-5MHz内(3MHz或3.6MHz);
这些专用频谱没有向后兼容性问题(例如,这些专用频段不支持传统UE)。
从设备的角度:
设备应支持跨商业频段和商业漫游的全部功能;
大多数设备都通过备用电源直接连接到电网,其中尺寸和功耗不是主要问题,这和低能力的终端(Reduced Capability,RedCap)不同。
目前,新空口(New Radio,NR)系统在频段1(FR1)即410MHz至7125MHz范围内需要的最小网络系统带宽为5MHz。该网络系统带宽即5MHz是目前支持终端在初始接入时所需要的同步信号,广播信道以及身份识别码(Identity document,ID)为0的控制资源集(Control resource set,CORESET),即CORESET 0在频域上所需要的最小带宽。
将来NR系统(Rel-18)将进一步演进,计划在小于5MHz的网络系统带宽进行网络部署。当控制资源集的配置带宽大于网络部署的系统带宽时,超出网络部署带宽的控制信道的频域资源,网络不会发送,终端打孔接收。也就是说,构成物理下行控制信道(Physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)候选(candidate)的资源单元组(Resource Element Group,REG)集合(bundle)在频域上只有一部分可以用来发送PDCCH以及解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal,DMRS)。
因此,在CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,如何用户设备(User Equipment,UE)对一个PDCCH候选进行信道估计,充分利用未超出网络部署带宽的资源来传输PDCCH候选,以提高控制信道信道估计的准确性成为亟待解决的问题。
在本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法中,在第一CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,终端按照第一方式对传输在第一CORESET上的PDCCH候选进行信道估计;其中,第一方式与第一CORESET对应的REG集合的大小或预编码粒度的取值相关。如此,可以使得终端可以在CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,采用第一方式对PDCCH候选进行信道估计,即,利用未超出网络部署带宽的资源来传输PDCCH候选,提高了信道估计的准确性。
本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法,执行主体可以为信道估计装置。本申请实施例中以信道估计装置为终端,执行信道估计方法为例,说明本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法。
下面结合附图,通过一些实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的一种信道估计方法、装置、终端及可读存储介质进行详细地说明。
图4示出了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4所示,该信道估计方法可以包括如下步骤201:
步骤201、在第一CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,终端按照第一方式对传输在该第一CORESET上的PDCCH候选进行信道估计。
在本申请实施例中,上述第一方式与第一CORESET对应的REG集合的大小或
预编码粒度的取值相关。
可选地,在本申请实施例中,上述第一方式包括:
方式1:在第一CORESET对应的REG集合的大小或预编码粒度大小取值为第一值的情况下,终端使用传输在第一CORESET中的PDCCH候选的REG集合内的DMRS进行信道估计。
示例性地,上述第一CORESET对应的REG集合中所有REG都位于网络系统带宽内。
方式2:在第一CORESET对应的REG集合大小取值为第二值的情况下,终端执行目标行为。
示例性地,上述第一CORESET对应的REG集合中其中一个REG集合中的部分REG位于网络系统带宽外。
示例性地,上述第一值和第二值均可以是协议约定的,也可以是用户自定义的。
以下以两种可能的实施例对上述第一方式进行示例性说明。
第一种可能的实施例中,针对上述方式1,在第一CORESET为CORESET 0的情况下,REG集合大小的取值(即上述第一值)可以是6以外的其他值,如2,3。
具体地,假设网络系统带宽的资源是N个RB,能够被第一值整除。则当REG集合大小的取值为第一值时,使得一个REG集合里的部分REG位于网络系统带宽外(或超出网络系统带宽)的情况不会发生。也就是说,当REG集合大小的取值为第一值时,一个REG集合里的所有REG都位于网络系统带宽内。
此时,UE对CORESET所占用的符号中用于信道估计目的的PDCCH DMRS RE位置/模式的假设没有改变,即终端认为一个REG集合内使用的是相同的预编码,终端使用该REG集合内的所有DMRS进行信道估计。
一种示例中,当CORESET 0所占用的OFDM符号大于1时,其REG集合大小的取值的大小等于CORESET 0所占用的OFDM符号数目。
另一种示例中,当CORESET 0所占用的OFDM符号等于1时,其REG集合大小的取值可以整除网络系统带宽的大小,若有多个REG集合大小的取值可以整除系统带宽的大小,则REG集合大小的取值是可以整除系统带宽的最小值或最大值。
示例一,如图5所示,以一个OFDM符号为例,假设网络系统带宽为3MHz,CORESET 0所占用的OFDM符号为3,则reg-BundleSize L=3(即上述第一值为3)。此时,所有的REG集合都不超过3MHz,即3MHz所包含的RB数目可以被第一值整除。由于UE在频率维度上使用常规的传统DMRS模式执行信道估计,不改变UE对符号中用于信道估计目的的PDCCH DMRS RE位置/模式的假设。也就是说UE认为PDCCH候选的一个REG集合内的所有DMRS RE使用的时相同的预编码,UE使用该REG bundle内的所有DMRS RE进行信道估计。
第二种可能的实施例中,针对上述方式2,在第一CORESET对应的REG集合
大小取值为第二值的情况下,终端执行目标行为。
进一步可选地,在本申请实施例中,上述目标行为包括以下任一项:
行为1:终端仅使用PDCCH候选的第一REG中的DMRS进行信道估计。
示例性地,上述第一REG中的DMRS使用相同的预编码。
示例性地,上述第一REG为处于网络系统带宽内的REG。
行为2:终端使用PDCCH候选的第一REG集合中的第二REG中的DMRS对传输在第一CORESET上的PDCCH候选进行信道估计。
示例性地,上述第一REG集合中的REG的DMRS使用相同的预编码。
示例性地,上述第一REG集合包括:第二REG集合的前一个REG集合以及第二REG集合中处于网络系统带宽内的REG。
示例性地,上述第二REG集合包括超出网络系统带宽的REG和处于网络系统带宽内的REG。
一种示例中,针对行为1,UE只使用REG集合中处于网络系统带宽内的REG(即上述第一REG)的DMRS进行信道估计。即不超过系统带宽的REG集合里的DMRS,该部分的DMRS使用的时相同的预编码(precoding)。
示例二,如图6所示,以一个OFDM符号为例,构成AL=4的一个PDCCH候选,使用CCE 0至CCE 3所对应的REG集合0、REG集合1、REG集合6和REG集合7中REG(即上述第一REG)的DMRS进行信道估计。此时,REG集合7中部分REG(如,REG 45、REG46和REG 47)位于网络系统带宽外,部分REG(如,REG 42、REG43和REG 44)位于网络系统带宽内。终端只使用REG集合中位于网络系统带宽内的REG的DMRS(如,REG 42、REG43和REG 44的DMRS)进行信道估计,且这些DMRS使用相同的预编码。
如此,直接使用网络系统带宽内的DMRS可以降低终端对控制信道进行信道估计时的复杂度。
一种示例中,针对行为2,终端假设未超出系统带宽的一个REG集合里的DMRS所使用的预编码和构成同一个PDCCH候选的上/前一个REG集合里的DMRS使用的预编码相同。即,终端会使用一个REG集合内的未超出系统带宽的部分DMRS RE和构成同一个PDCCH的上/前一个REG集合内的DMRS RE进行信道估计。
示例三,结合图6,如图7所示,以一个OFDM符号为例,终端将REG集合7(即上述第二REG集合)里在网络系统带宽内的部分REG(如,REG 42、REG43和REG 44)和前一个REG集合6中的所有REG组成一个REG集合(即上述第一REG集合),即该REG集合中包括REG集合7中的REG 42、REG43和REG 44,和REG集合6中的REG36至REG41,共9个REG(即上述第二REG),终端使用该REG集合中REG的DMRS进行信道估计。这9个REG的DRMS使用相同的预编
码。
如此,将位于网络系统带宽内的部分REG与前一个REG集合合并进行信道估计,不仅提高了控制信道的信道估计的准确性,还提高了可用资源的使用率。
进一步可选地,在本申请实施例中,上述目标行为还包括以下任一项:
行为3:终端对PDCCH候选中的第三REG所在的CCE进行打孔接收或速率匹配接收。
示例性地,上述第三REG为超出网络系统带宽的REG。
行为4:终端假设第二REG集合中的第四REG的预编码和前一个REG集合的预编码相同。
示例性地,上述第四REG为处于网络系统带宽内的REG。
示例性地,上述REG集合中的所有REG均使用相同的预编码。
一种示例中,针对上述行为3,终端对PDCCH候选中超出网络系统带宽的REG所在的CCE进行打孔接收,或速率匹配。换句话说,直接舍弃超出网络系统带宽的REG所在的CCE。网络可能传输或不传输未超出系统带宽的部分REG集合。
示例四,如图8所示,以一个OFDM符号为例,构成AL=4的一个PDCCH候选,若REG集合7中的部分REG(如,REG 45、REG46和REG 47)(即上述第三REG)所在的频域资源超出了网络系统带宽,则UE对上述REG集合7所在的CCE3进行速率匹配的接收或打孔接收。对于位于网络系统带宽内的部分REG(例如,REG 42、REG43和REG 44),网络可以传输或不传输PDCCH。
如此,直接舍弃超出网络系统带宽REG所在的CCE,降低了终端对控制信道进行估计的复杂度。
一种示例中,针对上述行为4,终端假设部分位于网络系统带宽内的REG集合(即上述第二REG集合)内的REG(即上述第四REG)信道估计结果和构成同一个PDCCH的上/前一个REG集合的信道估计结果相同。换句话说,终端假设部分位于网络系统带宽内的REG集合内的REG的预编码与该REG集合的构成同一个PDCCH的上/前一个REG集合所使用的预编码相同。则终端直接使用构成同一个PDCCH的上/前一个REG集合内的REG进行信道估计,并使用该信道估计结果,终端不再对位于网络系统带宽内的部分REG进行独立的信道估计。
需要说明的是,网络侧设备对于位于网络系统带宽内的部分REG可能发生也可能不发送。
示例五,结合图6,如图9所示,以一个OFDM符号为例,终端假设REG集合7里在网络系统带宽内的部分REG(例如,REG 42、REG43和REG 44)的DMRS和前一个REG集合6中的所有REG的DMRS使用相同的预编码,则使用REG集合6中的REG的DMRS进行信道估计所得到的信道估计结果,与使用REG集合7里在网络系统带宽内的部分REG的DMRS进行信道估计得到的信道估计结果相同。因
此,在该示例中,可以直接使用REG集合6的信道估计结果。
如此,直接使用构成同一PDCCH候选的前一个REG集合的信道估计结果,不仅提高了可用资源的使用率,还降低了终端对控制信道进行估计的复杂度。
在本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法中,在第一CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,终端按照第一方式对传输在第一CORESET上的PDCCH候选进行信道估计;其中,第一方式与第一CORESET对应的REG集合的大小或预编码粒度的取值相关。如此,可以使得终端可以在CORESET的频域资源配置超出网络系统带宽的情况下,采用第一方式对PDCCH候选进行信道估计,即,利用未超出网络部署带宽的资源来传输PDCCH候选,提高了信道估计的准确性。
可选地,在本申请实施例中,在上述步骤201“终端按照第一方式对传输在第一CORESET上的PDCCH候选进行信道估计”之后,本申请实施例提供的信道估计方法还包括步骤301:
步骤301、在传输在第一CORESET上的一个CCE的部分资源超出网络系统带宽的情况下,计算第一CORESET的非重叠CCE的数目,并执行第一操作。
示例性地,上述第一操作包括以下任一项:
将CCE计入第一计数;
将CCE不计入第一计数。
示例性地,上述第一计数是协议定义的一个时隙中最大CCE数目。
示例性地,上述第一计数可以采用第一公式表示。
第一公式:
可选地,在本申请实施例中,上述第一操作是基于以下任一项确定的:
协议约定;
基于上述第一方式确定的。
示例性地,在上述CCE的部分资源超出网络系统带宽的情况下,可以基于第一方式判断是否将该CCE计入协议定义的一个时隙中最大CCE数目中。
一种示例中,结合示例一可知,由于上述CCE的资源未超出网络系统带宽,则所有CCE全部计入协议定义的一个时隙中最大CCE数目中。
一种示例中,结合示例二可知,UE计算该PDCCH候选所包含的非重叠的CCE数目可以是3,也就是一个时隙中最大CCE数目为3,则表示CCE 3不计入非重叠的
一种示例中,结合示例三可知,UE计算该PDCCH候选所包含的非重叠的CCE数目可以是4,也就是一个时隙中最大CCE数目为4,则表示CCE 3计入非重叠的
一种示例中,结合示例四和示例五可知,UE计算该PDCCH候选所包含的非重叠的CCE数目可以是3,也就是一个时隙中最大CCE数目为3,则表示CCE 3不计
入非重叠的或者该PDCCH候选所包含的非重叠的CCE数目是4,也就是一个时隙中最大CCE数目为4,则表示CCE 3计入非重叠的
如此,可以通过计算判断是否需要将部分资源超出网络系统带宽的CCE计入一个时隙中最大CCE数目,降低计算复杂度。
