Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

The present application is based upon and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910251510.9, filed on Mar. 29, 2019, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of wireless communication, and in particular to a scrambling information processing method, a terminal, and a network device.

BACKGROUND

For a terminal user, scrambling sequences from Physical Downlink Shared Channels (PDSCH) of different Transmission Points (TRPs) of the same cell are the same, which results in a constant interference between Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) data streams from the different TRPs.

In addition, for a two-step random access scheme, msg1 and msg3 in the existing four-step random access scheme are commonly referred to as one-step information MSG A. A terminal sends a random access preamble and a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) in MSG A, and there is no specific solution at present to improve the detection or demodulation performance under different terminal PUSCH collisions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

Embodiments of the present application provide a scrambling information processing method. FIG. 1 is a first schematic flowchart of a scrambling information processing method according to embodiments of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following steps.

In step 101, a network device determines first information that is associated with at least one of the following information: a transmission point, an MIMO data layer of the transmission point, a codeword transmitted by the transmission point, a data channel transmitted by the transmission point, and a preamble.

In step 102, the network device determines initialization information for scrambling based at least on the first information.

The initialization information of the present embodiment may be represented as a polynomial form of weighted sums of different powers of 2, and may be specifically represented as follows:

$c_{\mathrm{init}}=n_{N-1}·2^{N-1}+n_{N-2}·2^{N-2}+\cdots +n_0·2^0=\sum _{i=1}^N{n}_{i-1}·2^{i-1}$

n_i-1∈{0, 1, . . . , Q_i-1}, Q_i-1 is a positive integer, and takes a value from a set consisting of hexadecimal numbers, decimal numbers, octal numbers, or binary numbers; specific values of Q corresponding to different i may be different, that is, specific values of Q corresponding to different i are the same or different; and system representations of Q corresponding to different i may be different, that is, system representations of Q corresponding to different i are the same or different. N∈Z⁺ represents that a value is taken from a set of positive integers.

The initialization information in the present embodiment is used for scrambling. On one hand, the initialization information may be used to scramble a service channel, such as a PDSCH and/or a PUSCH; or, the initialization information may be used to scramble a DM-RS. On the other hand, the service channel comprises an uplink service channel such as a PUSCH and a downlink service channel such as a PDSCH. Accordingly, the DM-RS also comprises an uplink DM-RS and a downlink DM-RS. The following embodiments of the present application are set forth respectively with an uplink aspect and a downlink aspect.

As a first implementation mode, the method further includes that: the network device scrambles a PDSCH based on the initialization information; and the network device sends the scrambled PDSCH to a terminal based on the initialization information.

The initialization information determined in the present embodiment is used for scrambling the PDSCH, specifically including the following two implementation modes.

As an implementation mode, the first information is an MIMO data layer index. It can be understood that different transmission points (TRP/Panel) or different MIMO data layers for a same transmission point correspond to different MIMO data layer indexes. The operation that the network device determines initialization information for scrambling at least based on the first information includes that: the network device determines initialization information for scrambling based on a first parameter, a codeword index, an MIMO data layer index, and a second parameter. The first parameter corresponds to an RNTI associated with PDSCH transmission, and the second parameter is a specific value.

Specifically, the initialization information satisfies:c_init=n_RNTI·2¹⁵+q·2¹⁴+l·2¹³+n_ID

c_init represents initialization information; n_RNTI corresponds to an RNTI associated with PDSCH transmission; q represents a codeword index, q∈{0, 1}; l represents an MIMO data layer index; l∈{0, . . . , X}, X takes the value of a decimal positive integer, for example: X=8, 16, 32, or 64, etc.; a value of nip is within a first preset value range under a condition of satisfying a first preset condition, and corresponds to a cell identifier under a condition of not satisfying the first preset condition; and a maximum value within the first preset value range is 1023. In various embodiments of the present application, a codeword index is a transmission block index, and a codeword identifier is a transmission block identifier.

As an implementation mode, the case where nip satisfies a first preset condition includes: specific field in high-layer Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling (specifically, for example, a field dataScramblingIdentityPDSCH) is configured, an RNTI is equal to Cell-RNTI (C-RNTI), Modulation and Coding Scheme-C-RNTI (MCS-C-RNTI) or Configured grant Scheduling-RNTI (CS-RNTI), and it is determined that n_ID satisfies the first preset condition when transmission is not scheduled by a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format 1_0 in a common search space, and n_ID∈{0, 1, . . . , 1023}. Accordingly, in other cases, it is determined that n_ID does not satisfy the first preset condition, and n_ID=N_cell^ID, where N_cell^ID a cell ID.

As another implementation mode, the first information is a second parameter, a value of which is within a second preset value range, and a maximum value within the second preset value range is a positive integer greater than 1023. The operation that the network device determines initialization information for scrambling at least based on the first information includes that: the network device determines initialization information for scrambling based on a first parameter, a codeword index, and a second parameter. The first parameter corresponds to an RNTI associated with PDSCH transmission.

Y is a positive integer and greater than 1023, for example: Y=8192=2¹³(>8088), etc. Accordingly, in other cases, it is determined that n_ID does not satisfy the first preset condition, and n_ID=N_cell^ID, where N_cell^ID is a cell ID.
