The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communication networks, and for example, to a channel state information reporting method, a channel state information receiving method, a communication node, and a storage medium.
In a wireless communication system, the process for reporting channel state information (CSI) includes: sending, by a base station, a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS); measuring, by a terminal, the CSI-RS; determining, by the terminal, CSI between the terminal and the base station and reporting the CSI to the base station; and determining, by the base station, a data transmission strategy and transmitting data based on the channel state represented by the CSI, thereby improving the data transmission efficiency and communication quality. The accuracy of the channel state represented by the CSI affects the transmission strategy of the base station, thereby affecting the data transmission efficiency and communication quality. In one slot, there are multiple CSI-RSs and multiple demodulation reference signals (DM-RS). If a number of time-domain orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols occupied by CSI-RS in one slot is large, it is susceptible to a collision with a DM-RS. Since a time-domain resource for carrying a CSI-RS is fixed, in order to reduce the possibility of a collision between CSI-RS and DM-RS, only the opportunity for scheduling CSI-RS can be reduced, which leads to the inflexible scheduling and transmission of CSI-RS, thereby affecting the efficiency and performance of reporting CSI in the system.
The present disclosure provides a channel state information reporting method, a channel state information receiving method, a communication node, and a storage medium. The efficiency and performance for reporting CSI are improved by flexibly indicating a position of a CSI-RS resource and indicating a reporting parameter of the CSI.
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a channel state information reporting method, including:
The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a channel state information receiving method, including:
The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a communication node, including: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and runnable on the processor, in response that the processor executes the program, the channel state information reporting method or the channel state information receiving method mentioned above is implemented.
The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium has stored a computer program thereon, in response that the program is executed by a processor, the channel state information reporting method or the channel state information receiving method mentioned above is implemented.
The present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The specific embodiments described herein are intended solely to illustrate the present disclosure. For ease of description, only parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the drawings.
In OFDM technologies, the smallest frequency-domain unit is a sub-carrier, and the smallest time-domain unit is an OFDM symbol. For a frequency-domain resource, a resource block (RB) is defined as a specific number of continuous sub-carriers, and a bandwidth part (BWP) is defined as another specific number of continuous resource blocks on a carrier; for a time-domain resource, a slot is defined as another specific number of continuous OFDM symbols.
A reference signal transmitted from a base station to a terminal is a downlink reference signal. In the long-term evolution (LTE) system, a downlink reference signal for reporting channel state information includes a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) and a CSI-RS. In the NR system, a downlink reference signal for reporting channel state information includes CSI-RS. CSI-RS is carried by a channel state information reference signal resource (CSI-RS Resource), and CSI-RS resource is composed of code division multiplexing groups (Code Division Multiplexing Group, referred to as CDM group for short). A CDM group is composed of radio resource elements. A multiplexing manner of CSI-RSs of a group of CSI-RS ports on one CDM group is code division multiplexing.
A content of CSI transmitted from the terminal to the base station includes: a channel quality indicator (CQI), which is used to indicate the quality of the channel; may also include a precoding matrix indicator (PMI), which is used to indicate a precoding matrix applied to the base station antenna. A reporting format of a type of CQI is wideband CQI reporting, that is, channel quality is reported for the channel state information reporting band (CSI Reporting Band), and the channel quality corresponds to the entire channel state information reporting band; a reporting format of another type of CQI is subband CQI reporting, that is, a quality is given channel qualities for each subband of the channel state information reporting frequency band, and each of the channel qualities corresponds to a subband, that is, a channel quality is reported for each of the subbands of the channel state information reporting frequency band. A subband is a frequency-domain unit, defined as N continuous resource blocks, where N is a positive integer. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a subband is also referred to as a channel quality indicator subband, or a CQI subband. A bandwidth part (BWP) is divided into subbands, and a channel state information reporting frequency band is defined as a subset of the subbands of the bandwidth part. The channel state information reporting frequency band is a frequency band of which the channel state information needs to be reported.
Similarly, a reporting format of a type of PMI is a wideband PMI report, that is, a PMI is reported for the channel state information reporting frequency band, and the PMI corresponds to the entire channel state information reporting frequency band; a reporting format of another type of PMI is a subband PMI report, that is, a PMI is reported for each of the subbands of the channel state information reporting frequency band, or a component of a PMI is reported for each of the subbands of the channel state information reporting frequency band. For example, a PMI consists of X1 and X2, and one way to report a component of the PMI for each of the subbands of the channel state information reporting frequency band is to report an X1 for the entire frequency band and report an X2 for each of the subbands, or report an X1 and an X2 for each of the subbands. There is a reporting format of another type of PMI: the reported PMI indicates R precoding matrices for each subband, where R is a positive integer. In the sense of frequency-domain granularity of the feedback precoding matrix, R can also be understood as a quantity of precoding matrix subbands included in each subband.
In the CSI reporting process of the wireless communication system, a CSI-RS resource for carrying a CSI-RS and a feedback mechanism for the terminal to provide CSI to the base station affect the accuracy of channel state feedback as well as the transmission strategy of the base station, and further affect the data transmission efficiency and communication quality. In the related art, a resource carrying a CSI-RS and the CSI feedback mechanism are fixed, in order to ensure the reliable transmission of CSI-RS and avoid a collision between CSI-RS and other signals or data, only the scheduling opportunities of CSI-RS can be reduced, thus causing the scheduling and transmission of CSI-RS not flexible.
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a channel state information reporting method, where the method can be applied to a terminal.
In step 110, configuration information is received, where the configuration information includes first configuration information and second configuration information, the first configuration information is used to indicate a position of a channel state information reference signal resource, and the second configuration information is used to indicate a reporting parameter of channel state information.
In step 120, a channel state information reference signal is received according to the first configuration information.
In step 130, the channel state information is reported according to the second configuration information and a measurement of the channel state information reference signal.
In this embodiment, the first configuration information is used to indicate the position of the CSI-RS resource, for example, the CSI-RS resource includes multiple CDM groups, and the first configuration information is used to indicate multiple CDM groups, a CDM group with index 0, or a frequency-domain sub-carrier position and a time-domain OFDM symbol position of each CDM group. The second configuration information is used to indicate the reporting parameter of the CSI. For example, in a case where the terminal reports a PMI to the base station, the second configuration information includes a parameter corresponding to a precoding matrix, such as a quantity of CSI-RS ports, an index of a discrete fourier transform (DFT) vector corresponding to a precoding matrix and/or a parameter of a DFT vector group corresponding to a precoding matrix, etc.
On this basis, the terminal receives CSI-RS on the corresponding CSI-RS resource according to an indication of the first configuration information, and reports the CSI to the base station according to an indication of the second configuration information, so as to feed back the channel state, thus improving the flexibility of CSI-RS scheduling and transmission, and simplifying the complexity of the CSI reporting process, thereby improving the efficiency and performance of CSI reporting.
In an embodiment, the CSI-RS resource includes K CDM groups, where K is a positive integer; the first configuration information includes a frequency-domain sub-carrier position parameter and a time-domain OFDM symbol position parameter of the CDM group.

In one slot, there are typically multiple CSI-RSs and multiple DM-RSs. If a number of time-domain orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols occupied by CSI-RS in one slot is large, it is susceptible to a collision with a DM-RS. In a new radio (NR) system, more time-domain OFDM symbols are occupied by CSI-RS. For example, a CSI-RS with 32 ports and CSI-RS with 24 ports are configured on 4 OFDM symbols, and a CSI-RS with 16 ports is configured on 2 OFDM symbols. In order to avoid a collision between the CSI-RS and the DM-RS, only the scheduling opportunity for CSI-RS and/or DM-RS is reduced. The above-mentioned eight candidate positions in this embodiment can halve a quantity of OFDM symbols occupied by the CSI-RS with 32 ports, CSI-RS with 24 ports, and CSI-RS with 16 ports. Even without reducing scheduling opportunities, the possibility of a collision between CSI-RS and DM-RS can be reduced. Since a position of the CDM group may be indicate by the first configuration information in the scenario of a CSI-RS with any quantity of ports, the flexibility for scheduling the CSI-RSs with different quantities of ports can be therefore increased.
In an embodiment, the channel state information reference signal resource includes K CDM groups, and K is a positive even number. In the K CDM groups, a position of a CDM group with index 0 is different from a position of a CDM group with index K/2 by Q frequency-domain resource blocks, and the CDM group with index 0 has a same time-domain OFDM symbol position as the CDM group with index K/2. The Q frequency-domain resource blocks contain M frequency-domain sub-carriers, where Q and M are positive integers. The first configuration information includes a frequency-domain sub-carrier position parameter and a time-domain OFDM symbol position parameter of the CDM group with index 0.
In this embodiment, the first configuration information indicates a time-frequency position (k0, l0) of the CDM group with index 0. A position of the CDM group with index K/2 is different from a position of the CDM group with index 0 by Q frequency-domain resource blocks, and the CDM group with index K/2 has a same time-domain OFDM symbol position as the CDM group with index 0, that is, the CDM group with index K/2 and the CDM group with index 0 occupy different frequency-domain resource blocks, but halve the occupied time-domain OFDM symbols, where M is a quantity of frequency-domain sub-carriers included in Q resource blocks, K is a positive even number, and values of k0 and l0 are indicated by the first configuration information. In a case where all CDM groups crowded on the same resource block, there is a tendency to occupy more OFDM symbols; on the other hand, in a case where all CDM groups are distributed on different resource blocks, there is a tendency to occupy fewer OFDM symbols. In this embodiment, M is a quantity of frequency-domain sub-carriers included in Q resource blocks, a position of the CDM group with index K/2 is (k0+M, l0) and a position of the CDM group with index 0 is (k0, l0), thus a difference between (k0+M, l0) and (k0, l0) is Q resource blocks; that is, the CDM group with index K/2 and the CDM group with index 0 are placed on different resource blocks, which not only reduces the overhead of radio resources occupied by CSI-RS, but also bring a chance to save a quantity of occupied OFDM symbols in the time domain.
In an embodiment, the first configuration information includes two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters of the channel state information reference signal resource. In a case where a difference between the two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters is less than 2, a time-domain position of the channel state information reference signal resource is determined according to one of the two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters. In a case where a difference between the two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters is greater than or equal to 2, the time-domain position of the channel state information reference signal resource is determined according to the two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters.
In this embodiment, the first configuration information indicates positions of the two time-domain OFDM symbols, which are represented by l0 and l1, respectively. On this basis, a position of CSI-RS is indicated according to a difference between l0 and l1. For example, in a case where the difference between l0 and l1 is large enough, available time-domain OFDM symbols are sufficient, and the possibility of a collision between CSI-RS and other signals is low, and thus there is no need to halve the time-domain OFDM symbols, but just adopts the CSI-RS resource configuration in the NR system. In a case where the difference between l0 and l1 is small, the above-mentioned eight candidate positions can be adopted to carry CSI-RS, so as to reduce the possibility of a collision.
Below, take cases of selecting a size of a CDM group for a CSI-RS with 32 ports, a CSI-RS with 24 ports, and a CSI-RS with 16 ports respectively as examples for description.
If l1−l0<2, the following positions can be indicated for the CSI-RS resources with different quantities of ports.
If l1−l0≥2, the following positions can be indicated for the CSI-RS resources with different quantities of ports:
In this embodiment, different CSI-RS candidate positions are indicated according to the difference between the two time-domain OFDM symbol position parameters. Since resources in different positions are adopted to carry CSI, thus guaranteeing the diversity of CSI-RS candidate positions, thereby improving the flexibility of CSI-RS scheduling.
In an embodiment, the CSI-RS resource includes T sets of CDM groups. The first configuration information includes a non-zero-power channel state information reference signal resource information element (NZP-CSI-RS-Resource IE), the non-zero-power channel state information reference signal resource information element includes T channel state information reference signal resource mapping information elements (CSI-RS-Resource Mapping IE), each of the channel state information reference signal resource mapping elements is used to indicate a position of a respective set of CDM groups.
In this embodiment, the position of the CSI-RS resource is a combination of positions of the T sets of CDM groups.
Taking T=2 as an example, the first channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the first set of CDM groups, and the first set of CDM groups includes J1 CDM groups, where J1 is an integer greater than or equal to 1; the second channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the second set of CDM groups, and the second set of CDM groups includes J2 CDM groups, where J2 is an integer greater than or equal to 1. In this case, positions of the CSI-RS resource include positions of J1+J2 CDM groups. A quantity of each set of CDM groups may be equal or unequal.
For another example, the first channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the first set of CDM groups, including positions of J CDM groups, where J is an integer greater than or equal to 1; the second channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the second set of CDM groups, including positions of J CDM groups; positions of the channel state information reference signal are positions of 2J CDM groups.
In an embodiment, the channel state information reporting method further includes the following steps.
Step 112: determining a number of a channel state information reference signal port according to an index of the CDM group: p=N+s+jK, where K represents a size of the CDM group, j represents an index of the CDM group, and s represents a code sequence index for code division multiplexing the channel state information reference signal of the channel state information reference signal port over a CDM group with index j. s is a non-negative integer less than K, and N is an initial number of the channel state information reference signal port and N is a non-negative integer. The first channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the first set of CDM groups, including positions of J: CDM groups, and indices of the Ji CDM groups are mapped to 0, 1, . . . , J1−1; second channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the second set of CDM groups, including positions of J2 CDM groups, and indices of the J2 CDM groups are mapped to J1, J1+1, . . . , J1+J2−1; where j is a non-negative integer less than J1+J2.
In this embodiment, before CSI is reported, the terminal can determine the number of the CSI-RS port according to the index of the CDM group carrying the CSI and indicated by the first configuration information. The multiplexing mode of CSI-RS over the CDM ports is code division multiplexing.
Taking T=2 as an example, the first channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the first set of CDM groups, including positions of J1 CDM groups, and indices of the J1 CDM groups are mapped to 0, 1, . . . , J1−1; the second channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the second set of CDM groups, including positions of J2 CDM groups, and indices of the J2 CDM groups are mapped to J1, J1+1, . . . , J1+J2−1. Positions of the channel state information reference signal are positions of CDM groups with index 0, 1, . . . , J1+J2−1.
A number of the CSI-RS port is determined according to the mapped CDM group indexs 0, 1, . . . , J1+J2−1: p=N+s+jK; where j is a mapped CDM group index, and j takes a value from 0, 1, . . . , J1+J2−1; K is a size of CDM group, s is a code sequence index for code division multiplexing the signal in the port with number p over a CDM group with index j, and s takes a value form 0, 1, . . . , K−1. Nis an initial number of the channel state information reference signal port, for example, N is 3000.
For another example, the first channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the first set of CDM groups, including positions of J CDM groups, and indices of the J CDM groups are mapped to 0, 1, . . . , J−1; the second channel state information reference signal resource mapping element indicates positions of the second set of CDM groups, including positions of J CDM groups, and indices of the J CDM groups are mapped to J, J+1, . . . , 2J−1. Positions of the channel state information reference signal are positions of CDM groups with index 0, 1, . . . , 2J−1.
A number of the CSI-RS port is determined according to the mapped CDM groups with indexes 0, 1, . . . , 2J−1: p=N+s+jK; where j is a mapped CDM group index, j takes a value from 0, 1, . . . , 2J−1; K is a size of a CDM group, s is a code sequence index for code division multiplexing the signal in the port with a number p over a CDM group with index j, and s takes a value form 0, 1, . . . , K−1. N is an initial number of the channel state information reference signal port, for example, N is 3000.
On this basis, the first set of CDM groups corresponds to P1 CSI-RS ports, where P1 is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and numbers of the P1 CSI-RS ports are mapped to N, N+1, . . . , N+P1−1; the second set of CDM groups corresponds to P2 CSI-RS ports, where P2 is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and numbers of the P2 CSI-RS port are mapped to N+P1, N+P1+1, . . . , N+P1+P2−1.
In an embodiment, the channel state information reporting method further includes:
In this embodiment, before CSI is reported, the terminal may calculate the quantity of the channel state information processing units occupied for receiving the CSI-RS according to the quantity of CDM groups, or the quantity of the channel state information reference signal resource mapping elements indicated by the first configuration information, where the quantity of channel state information processing units occupied for receiving the CSI-RS is T.
Receiving a CSI-RS and reporting of CSI by the terminal need to be within its own capabilities. By analyzing the terminal's workload for receiving CSI-RS, the required quantity of channel state information processing units is accurately calculated, thus the performance of receiving and reporting can be improved, and further, operational failure, crashes, and other issues are avoided. In this embodiment, the non-zero-power channel state information reference signal resource information element includes T channel state information reference signal resource mapping elements, then during the reception of CSI-RS on the terminal side, T channel state information processing units are allocated to receive the CSI-RS carried on the channel state information reference signal resource, so as to ensure the accuracy of the measurement of the CSI processing units occupied for receiving process, and further, avoid insufficient preparation or waste of the number of the channel state information processing units.
In an embodiment, CSI includes PMI, and a precoding matrix is determined according to a first group of vectors and a second group of vectors; where the first group of vectors includes L vectors, and the second group of vectors includes My vectors; where L and My are positive integers.
In this embodiment, the terminal reports the PMI to the base station to indicate the precoding matrix applied to an antenna of the base station. The terminal determines the precoding matrix according to the first group of vectors and the second group of vectors and indicates the precoding matrix to the base station through the PMI. After the PMI is received by the base station, the base station recovers the precoding matrix according to the first group of vectors and the second group of vectors. In this embodiment, the first group of vectors includes L vectors, and the second group of vectors includes Mv vectors.
In this embodiment, the precoding matrix is W composed of W1, W2 and Wf, for example, W=W1W2WfH, where W1 is a matrix composed of the L vectors, Wf is a matrix composed of Mv vectors, WfH is a transposed-conjugate matrix of Wf, and W2 is a matrix composed of coefficients of LMv vector pairs composed of the L vectors and the Mv vectors.
In an embodiment, corresponding to Mv being 2, the second group of vectors includes a DFT vector with index 0 and a DFT vector with index n3(f); where an element in the DFT vector with index n3(f) is represented as
where t is a non-negative integer less than N3, and N3 is a quantity of precoding matrices.
In this embodiment, t is an index of an element in the DFT vector, t takes a value from 0, 1, . . . , N3−1, and t may also represent an index of the precoding matrix. The power of the precoding matrix is mainly concentrated on the DFT vector with index 0 and the DFT vector whose index is close to index 0 of the DFT vector (i.e., the DFT vector with index n3(f).
In an embodiment, n3(f) is determined in one of the following ways: selected, by the precoding indicator, from 1 and N3−1; selected, by the second configuration information, from 1 and N3−1; determined according to a quantity of precoding matrix subbands included in each channel quality indicator CQI subband.
In this embodiment, corresponding to Mv being 2, there are three ways to determine n3(f):
