Embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings.
In a high-frequency scenario, CPs of symbols become shorter, and in the case where a time advance (TA) estimation of multiple measurement nodes is not performed, an uplink positioning reference signal of a target node and a signal of another target node in adjacent measurement nodes which reach the measurement node where the target node is located have symbol offsets exceeding the CP length, thus affecting the positioning performance and interfering the communication of the target node in the adjacent measurement nodes.
In the embodiment of the present application, a method for implementing uplink positioning is provided to avoid the influence on the positioning of the target node, thereby achieving accurate positioning of the target node and reducing communication interference to a terminal in an adjacent measurement node. In the embodiment, the measurement node is a base station, the target node is a user terminal, and a positioning server is a core network.
In an embodiment,
In step 101, a first positioning instruction is sent to a first measurement node set.
The first measurement node set includes at least three measurement nodes, and a target node is located within a coverage range of the at least three measurement nodes.
In step 102, first positioning attribute information fed back by each measurement node and corresponding to the first positioning instruction is received.
The first positioning attribute information includes a measurement node identity and random access information of a cell where the each measurement node is located.
In step 103, a random access instruction carrying the first positioning attribute information is sent to the target node.
The random access instruction is configured to trigger the target node to send a random access signal to the each measurement node to determine a communication distance between the target node and the each measurement node.
In the embodiment, in a case where the target node needs to be positioned, for example, in a case where the target node sends an uplink positioning request to the positioning server, or in a case where the target node needs to be positioned by the positioning server, the positioning server sends the first positioning instruction to the first measurement node set. The first measurement node set includes at least three measurement nodes, and the target node is located within a coverage range of multiple measurement nodes, that is, a communication range of all the measurement nodes in the first measurement node set may cover the target node. The first positioning instruction is an instruction for reporting an identity of each measurement node and random access information of a service cell where each measurement node is located. Each measurement node in the first measurement node set receives the first positioning instruction, and each measurement node reports a measurement node identity of the measurement node and random access information of a service cell where the measurement node is located. After the positioning server receives the measurement node identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located fed back by each measurement node, the positioning server issues the random access instruction to the target node, so that after receiving the random access instruction, the target node identifies an identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located, to transmit the random access signal to a corresponding measurement node. The random access information includes channel resource allocation information of a physical random access channel (PRACH) and the supported preamble information. The preamble information is a preamble code with a total of 64 bits, where the preamble code is the actual content sent by a user equipment in the PRACH and is composed of a CP with a length of Tcp and a sequence with a length of Tseq.
After the target node transmits the random access signal to each measurement node in the first measurement node set, the communication distance between the target node and each measurement node can be calculated through the time when each measurement node receives the random access signal, thereby achieving the positioning of the target node. After the communication distance between the target node and each measuring node is determined, transmission time when the target node transmits a signal to a corresponding measurement node can be adjusted according to each communication distance, to ensure that arrival time of the signal sent by the target node to each measurement node is the same and to avoid the communication interference to another target node in the adjacent measurement nodes.
In an embodiment, in a case where one measurement node in the first measurement node set is a service node, step 103 includes steps 1031 to 1032.
In step 1031, the first positioning attribute information is sent to the service node.
The service node is a base station cell which has established communication with the target node currently.
In step 1032, DCI carrying the first positioning attribute information is sent to the target node through the service node.
In the embodiment, in a case where one measurement node in the first measurement node set is the service node, the positioning server may send the identity of each measurement node in the first measurement node set and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located to the service node, and the identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located are sent to the target node through the service node. In an embodiment, after the service node receives the identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located, the service node configures at least two pieces of DCI and issues the at least two pieces of DCI to the target node. The target node is triggered through the pieces of DCI to transmit the random access signal to each measurement node to determine the communication distance between the target node and each measurement node. The number of pieces of downlink control information and the number of measurement nodes are the same, that is, each piece of downlink control information corresponds to first positioning attribute information of one measurement node.

In step 202, first positioning attribute information corresponding to the first positioning instruction is extracted according the first positioning instruction.
The first positioning attribute information includes a measurement node identity and random access information of a cell where the measurement node is located.
In step 203, the first positioning attribute information is fed back to the positioning server.
The first positioning attribute information is attribute information of multiple measurement nodes with which a target node is to establish communication, and the first positioning attribute information includes a measurement node identity and random access information of a cell where the measurement node is located.
In the embodiment, after each measurement node in a first measurement node set receives the first positioning instruction sent by the positioning server, each measurement node identifies and extracts the measurement node identity of the measurement node and the random access information of the cell where the measurement node is located from a preset database and sends the measurement node identity of the measurement node and the random access information of the cell where the measurement node is located to the positioning server, and thus the positioning server forwards the measurement node identity and the random access information of the cell where the measurement node is located to the target node, so that the target node transmits the random access signal to each measurement node.
In an embodiment,
In step 301, a first positioning instruction is sent.
In step 302, first positioning attribute information is received.
In step 303, a random access instruction is sent to the target node.

In the embodiment, the positioning server sends the first positioning instruction to each measurement node in a first measurement node set, and after receiving the first positioning instruction, each measurement node reports a measurement node identity of the measurement node and random access information of a cell where the measurement node is located to the positioning server. After the positioning server receives the identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located, the positioning server issues the random access instruction to the target node. After the target node receives the random access instruction, the target node transmits the random access signal to each measurement node according to the identity of each measurement node and the random access information of the cell where each measurement node is located. The random access instruction is a positioning measurement activation instruction, which triggers each measurement node to start receiving the random access signal sent by the target node.

The first positioning activation instruction is configured to trigger each measurement node to feed back the second positioning attribute information to the service node. After the service node receives the second positioning attribute information of each measurement node, the service node configures the second positioning attribute information to obtain at least two pieces of DCI. Each piece of DCI is issued to the target node to trigger the target node to transmit the random access signal to the service node and each measurement node to determine the communication distance between the target node and each measurement node. In order to facilitate the target node to identify and obtain the identity of each corresponding measurement node and the random access signal of the cell where each measurement node is located according to the pieces of DCI, a one-to-one correspondence relationship may be set between the pieces of DCI and the measurement node identities, that is, each measurement node identity corresponds to a respective one piece of DCI.

The positioning server issues the first positioning activation instruction carrying the service node identity to each measurement node, and after each measurement node receives the first positioning activation instruction, each measurement node sends the second positioning attribute information of the measurement node to the service node. After the service node receives the second positioning attribute information sent by each measurement node, the service node configures the DCI and issues the DCI to the target node, so as to activate the target node to transmit the random access signal to each measurement node to determine the communication distance between the target node and each measurement node.
In an embodiment, after the target node sends the random access signal to the service node or each measurement node, in order to ensure that a transmit power of an uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node to the service node or each measurement node is able to match a power of a transmit beam of the service node or a corresponding measurement node, a target transmit power of a corresponding uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node needs to be adjusted. After the DCI carrying the second positioning attribute information is sent to the target node, the method further includes the following steps: uplink positioning reference signals sent by the target node and determined according to first configuration information and a relationship between each uplink positioning reference signal and a corresponding measurement node are received, a power adjustment parameter is determined according to a receive strength of the uplink positioning reference signal and the power adjustment parameter is returned to the target node, where the first configuration information includes multiple spatial correlations, multiple preset downlink positioning reference signals and multiple pieces of third positioning attribute information; the spatial correlations are used for characterizing a correlation between each preset downlink positioning reference signal and a corresponding uplink positioning reference signal; the third positioning attribute information includes a path loss measurement signal type, a path loss measurement signal identity, a path loss measurement signal time-frequency resource, a path loss measurement signal transmit power and a path loss measurement signal sequence; and the power adjustment parameter is used for adjusting a current transmit power of an uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node to a corresponding measurement node to the target transmit power.
In the embodiment, the target node performs beam matching according to the third positioning attribute information of each measurement node and determines, in combination with the spatial correlations between the uplink positioning reference signals and the preset downlink positioning reference signals, a transmit beam and a current transmit power of a corresponding uplink positioning reference signal, and then the target node sends the uplink positioning reference signal to the service node according to the transmit beam and the current transmit power. The uplink positioning reference signals are signals corresponding to multiple measurement nodes. That is, in order to enable the service node to correspond a received power adjustment parameter to the uplink positioning reference signal and the measurement node, a relationship between each uplink positioning reference signal and a corresponding measurement node also needs to be sent while the target node sends the uplink positioning reference signals to the service node. After each measurement node receives a corresponding uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node, each measurement node determines a power adjustment parameter according to a receive strength of the received uplink positioning reference signal, so that the target node adjusts a current transmit power of an uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node to a corresponding measurement node to a target transmit power, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the transmit power of the uplink positioning reference signal transmitted by the target node, avoiding the waste of resources caused by excessive transmit power, and avoiding that the uplink positioning reference signal cannot be accurately received caused by too low transmit power.

In the embodiment, after each measurement node receives the uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node, each measurement node determines a corresponding power adjustment parameter according to the receive strength of the received uplink positioning reference signal and returns the power adjustment parameter to the service node, so that the power adjustment parameter is sent to the target node through the service node.
In an embodiment, in order to enable the service node to determine uplink positioning reference information according to first configuration information, the first configuration information needs to be obtained. Before the uplink positioning reference signal sent by the target node and determined according to the first configuration information is received, the method further includes the following steps: a positioning configuration instruction sent by the positioning server and third positioning attribute information sent by the positioning server are received, spatial correlations of corresponding uplink signal resources are determined according to the preset downlink positioning reference signals of the measurement nodes, and sending the first configuration information to the target node. The positioning configuration instruction carries preset downlink positioning reference signals of multiple measurement nodes, the first configuration information includes the multiple spatial correlations, the multiple preset downlink positioning reference signals and the multiple pieces of third positioning attribute information.
In a case where the service node receives the positioning configuration instruction sent by the positioning server, the service node configures an uplink positioning reference signal of each measurement node, that is, a spatial correlation of a corresponding uplink signal resource is determined according to a preset downlink positioning reference signal of each measurement node, where the spatial correlation is used for characterizing a correlation between the uplink positioning reference signal and the preset downlink positioning reference signal, that is, a transmission channel and a time-frequency resource used by each uplink positioning reference signal and a corresponding preset downlink positioning reference signal are the same, while a transmission direction of the uplink positioning reference signal and a transmission direction of the corresponding preset downlink positioning reference signal are opposite. In an embodiment, the multiple pieces of third positioning attribute information are sent by the multiple measurement nodes.

The positioning server identifies, in combination with an RRM measurement result of the target node and the path loss measurement signal available to each measurement node, a preset downlink positioning reference signal corresponding to each measurement node which may be better identified by the target node. The path loss measurement signal is determined by each measurement node according to the corresponding third positioning attribute information.

In step 903, a third positioning instruction is sent.
In step 905, third positioning attribute information is reported.
In step 907, a preset downlink positioning reference signal of each measurement node is determined.
In step 909, a positioning configuration instruction is sent.
In step 911, a second positioning activation instruction is sent.
In step 913, uplink positioning reference signals are configured, and spatial correlations of corresponding uplink signal resources are determined according to the preset downlink positioning reference signals.

In step 919, the uplink positioning reference signal and a corresponding relationship between each uplink positioning reference signal and a measurement node are sent.
In step 921, the uplink positioning reference signal is measured to determine a power adjustment parameter.
In step 923, the power adjustment parameter is sent to a service node.
In step 925, the power adjustment parameter is sent to a target node.
In step 927, a transmit power of the uplink positioning reference signal is adjusted to a target transmit power according to the power adjustment parameter.
In step 929, the uplink positioning reference signal is transmitted according to the target transmit power.
In step 931, a measurement result is reported.
In step 933, a positioning result is calculated.
In the embodiment, the target node that needs to be positioned reports RRM measurement information to a positioning server, where the RRM measurement information includes a downlink positioning reference signal type of the service node where the target node is located, an identity of a cell where the target node is located, and a position of a time-frequency domain resource where the target node is located. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the target node can measure a downlink CSI-RS of a base station A, a downlink CSI-RS of a base station B, a downlink CSI-RS of a base station C and a downlink CSI-RS of a base station D. The positioning server selects the base station A, the base station B, the base station C and the base station D as the measurement nodes used in this positioning. The measurement node A is a service base station, i.e. the service node.
The positioning server sends the third positioning instruction to the measurement node A which is used as a service base station and all the measurement nodes used for this positioning, and requires each measurement node to report corresponding third positioning attribute information, where the third positioning attribute information is signal parameter information used by multiple measurement nodes for path loss measurement, and the third positioning attribute information includes a path loss measurement signal type, a path loss measurement signal identity, a path loss measurement signal time-frequency resource, a path loss measurement signal transmit power and a path loss measurement signal sequence, and further includes position information of the measurement node.
The service node and each measurement node report corresponding third positioning attribute information according to the third positioning instruction, and the positioning server identifies, in combination with an RRM measurement result and a path loss measurement signal available by each measurement node, a preset downlink reference signal corresponding to each measurement node which may be better identified by the target node. In this embodiment, CSI-RSA of the measurement node A, CIS-RSB of the measurement node B, CSI-RSC of the measurement node C and CSI-RSD of the measurement node D are obtained by comparing RRM measurement results. Each of these four signals may be used for measuring a path loss signal of a measurement node corresponding to the each of these four signals and may also be detected by the target node for RRM measurement at the same time. The CSI-RSA corresponds to the CIS-RS of the measurement node A, the CSI-RSB corresponds to the CIS-RS of the measurement node B, the CSI-RSC corresponds to the CIS-RS of the measurement node C, and the CSI-RSD corresponds to the CIS-RS of the measurement node D.
The positioning server sends the positioning configuration instruction to the service node (the measurement node A), that is, an uplink positioning reference signal configuration instruction. The instruction informs the service node to start configuring the uplink positioning reference signal to the target node. At the same time, the instruction indicates that the CSI-RSA, the CIS-RSB, the CSI-RSC and the CSI-RSD are preset downlink reference signals from the measurement node A, the measurement node B, the measurement node C and the measurement node D respectively, i.e. ideal downlink signals. At the same time, the second positioning activation instruction is sent to the measurement node A, the measurement node B, the measurement node C and the measurement node D, and is configured to indicate the measurement node A, the measurement node B, the measurement node C and the measurement node D to start measuring the uplink positioning reference signals of the target node. The measurement node A, the measurement node B, the measurement node C and the measurement node D measure the uplink positioning reference signals from the target node and report the measurement results to the positioning server, and the positioning server calculates a position.
The service node (the measurement node A) configures a downlink positioning reference signal resource of the measurement node A, a downlink positioning reference signal resource of the measurement node B, a downlink positioning reference signal resource of the measurement node C and a downlink positioning reference signal resource of the measurement node D to the target node, and these resources are a resource 1, a resource 2, a resource 3 and a resource 4 respectively. A downlink path loss measurement signal of the resource 1 is the CSI-RSA, a downlink path loss measurement signal of the resource 2 is the CSI-RSB, a downlink path loss measurement signal of the resource 3 is the CSI-RSC, and a downlink path loss measurement signal of the resource 4 is the CSI-RSD. The resource 1 has a spatial correlation with the signal CSI-RSA, the resource 2 has a spatial correlation with the signal CIS-RSB, the resource 3 has a spatial correlation with the signal CSI-RSC, and the resource 4 has a spatial correlation with the signal CSI-RSD. The first configuration information including multiple spatial correlations, multiple preset downlink positioning reference signals and multiple pieces of third positioning attribute information is sent to the target node.
In a case where the used path loss measurement signals have a one-to-one correspondence to signals of the target node for the RRM measurement, and the target node has known the optimum receive beams of multiple downlink positioning reference signals. Since there is a spatial correlation between the uplink signal resource corresponding to each uplink positioning reference signal and a CSI-RS corresponding to the measurement node, the target node may know the optimum transmit beam of each uplink signal resource to direct to the corresponding measurement node. The target node transmits an uplink positioning reference signal to a corresponding measurement node, and reports a corresponding relationship between the corresponding measurement node and the CSI-RS.
Each measurement node measures the uplink positioning reference signal transmitted by the target node, and configures a power adjustment parameter according to the magnitude of the receive strength, where measurement nodes (the measurement node B, the measurement node C and the measurement node D) adjacent to the service node (the measurement node A) send the power adjustment parameters to the service node.
The service node configures a power control parameter for the resource 1 according to the measurement of the service node, configures the received power control parameter of the measurement node B to the resource 2, configures a power control parameter from the measurement node C to the resource 3, configures a power control parameter from the measurement node D to the resource 4, and sends a resource adjustment parameter to the target node.
The target node adjusts transmit powers corresponding to the resource 1, the resource 2, the resource 3 and the resource 4 respectively to adjust to target transmit powers according to the received power adjustment parameters.

In step 1031, a measurement result is reported.
In step 1033, a positioning result is calculated.
Steps 1001 to 1033 are explained as follows: steps 1001 to 1033 are in one-to-one correspondence with steps 901 to 933. The difference is that in a case where the target node reports the RRM measurement information, the target node may directly report the RRM measurement information to the service node, and in a case where each measurement node reports the third positioning attribute information, each measurement node may directly report the third positioning attribute information to the service node, thus avoiding the transfer of the third positioning attribute information in the positioning server and reducing the transmission delay. In a case where the third positioning attribute information is directly sent to the service node, a preset downlink positioning reference signal of each measurement node may be determined through the service node. The explanation of steps 1001 to 1033 is given in the description of steps 901 to 933 in the above described embodiments and will not be repeated herein.
In an embodiment,
In step 1101, RRM measurement information is reported.
In step 1102, a TA estimation is performed on multiple measurement nodes.
In step 1103, a third positioning instruction is sent.
In step 1105, third positioning attribute information is reported.
In step 1107, a preset downlink positioning reference signal of each measurement node is determined.
In step 1109, a positioning configuration instruction is sent.
In step 1111, a second positioning activation instruction is sent.
In step 1113, uplink positioning reference signals are configured, and spatial correlations of corresponding uplink signal resources are determined according to the preset downlink positioning reference signals.
In step 1115, first configuration information is sent.
In step 1117, a transmit beam of an uplink positioning reference signal and a current transmit power of the uplink positioning reference signal are determined.
In step 1119, the uplink positioning reference signal and a corresponding relationship between each uplink positioning reference signal and a measurement node are sent.
In step 1121, the uplink positioning reference signal is measured to determine a power adjustment parameter.
In step 1123, the power adjustment parameter is sent to a service node.
In step 1125, the power adjustment parameter is sent to a target node.
In step 1127, a transmit power of the uplink positioning reference signal is adjusted to a target transmit power according to the power adjustment parameter.
In step 1129, the uplink positioning reference signal is transmitted according to the target transmit power.
In step 1131, a measurement result is reported.
In step 1133, a positioning result is calculated.
Steps 1101 to 1133 are explained as follows: steps 1101 to 1133 are in one-to-one correspondence with steps 901 to 933. The difference is that after the target node reports the RRM measurement information, step 1102 is added to implement the TA estimations of multiple measurement nodes. For the implementation of the TA estimations for multiple measurement nodes, refer to the scheme of determining the communication distance between the target node and each measurement node in the above embodiments, which will not be described herein. After a TA value of each measurement node is determined, the TA value of each measurement node is sent to the target node through the service node, therefore in the process of transmitting the uplink positioning reference signal by the target node, each uplink signal resource is sent by using a corresponding TA value, that is, step 1119 in which the uplink positioning reference signal is transmitted includes that the uplink positioning reference signal is sent by using the TA value corresponding to the uplink signal resource of each measurement node.
In an embodiment, a transmit power control is only performed on the service node. After the service node receives the positioning activation instruction from the positioning server, the service node selects the used measurement nodes to and sends the used measurement nodes to the positioning server. The service node configures the uplink signal resource corresponding to the uplink positioning reference signal used by the target node, specifies the uplink signal resource corresponding to the uplink positioning reference signal corresponding to the service node, and determines an initial transmit power of the uplink signal resource and path loss measurement signal information. The target node measures a path loss measurement signal of the service node and performs beam matching to determine a transmit power and a transmit direction of the uplink signal resource corresponding to the uplink positioning reference signal sent to the service node, and the transmit power of the uplink signal resource corresponding to the uplink positioning reference signal sent to another measurement node is sent at full power. After the service node receives the uplink positioning reference signal of the target node, the service node performs the transmit power control on the uplink signal resource corresponding to the uplink positioning reference signal.
