Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of communication, and in particular to a partial pseudo-randomization processing method, a corresponding apparatus, a device, and a storage medium.


BACKGROUND

Pseudo-randomization processing of a bit sequence that needs to be transmitted can increase the randomness of the bit sequence. If different users use different pseudo-randomization processing for bit sequences, the pseudo-randomization processing can also reduce the correlation of the bit sequences of different users to thus achieve the effect of inter-user interference randomization, which will bring two benefits described below. 1. After the inter-user interference randomization is achieved, the detection performance of user data symbols will be more robust. 2. In non-orthogonal multiple access scenarios, a receiver needs to use correctly decoded user data to improve the precision of its channel estimation (this technology may be referred to as data-assisted channel estimation technology, or data-pilot technology), so that a reconstructed signal is more accurate and thus the residual error of interference cancellation is smaller, where pseudo-randomization of bits between users can improve the accuracy of this channel estimation. This can further improve the performance of the entire interference cancellation receiver.


Inter-user interference randomization is particularly effective for scenarios where user data characteristics are the same. For example, for applications such as electricity meters, the electricity meters may report the power consumption of the past month on the same day of each month, so the messages that these different users may send are “so far, the power consumption is xxx”, the source bits used to represent this information will be very similar, and the inter-user interference randomization can play a very good role when the users are distinguished by the receiver.


A transmitting side performs pseudo-randomization processing on the bit sequence that needs to be transmitted, and a receiving side needs to perform pseudo-randomization removing processing on a corresponding bit sequence, which requires the receiving side to know the pseudo-random processing method of the transmitting side.


Pseudo-randomization processing of the bit sequence that needs to be transmitted can be achieved in different methods. One of the classic and most commonly used methods is to use a pseudo-random bit sequence to scramble the bit sequence that needs to be transmitted. Therefore, the pseudo-random bit sequence used may also be referred to as a scrambling code sequence, which is usually generated by a pseudo-sequence generator. The scrambling process is a process of performing an XOR operation on the bit sequence to be transmitted and the bit corresponding to the scrambling code sequence to generate a new bit sequence.


The transmitting side performs scrambling processing on the bit sequence that needs to be transmitted, and the receiving side needs to perform descrambling processing on the corresponding bit sequence. Similarly, for the descrambling processing, the receiving side needs to know the scrambling code used by the transmitting side.


In the existing communication methods, a bit pseudo-randomization process in which a user uses a UE-specific scrambling code to scramble the bit sequence to be transmitted has been supported. However, the existing scrambling code scheme is to scramble codeword bits output by a Forward Error Correction (FEC) encoder. The descrambling on the receiving side is correspondingly to descramble codewords before forward error correction decoding, and then perform FEC decoding. The forward error correction encoding is also referred to as a channel error correction encoding. Classic forward error correction encoding includes convolutional encoding, Reed-solomon (RS) encoding, Low Density Parity Check Code (LDPC) encoding, Turbo encoding, Polar encoding, or the like.


In the existing communication methods, the receiving side knows the scrambling code used by the transmitting side before performing decoding, so the receiving side can easily complete the descrambling operation and then performs decoding. However, when the existing scrambling code scheme is applied to grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission, the descrambling of the receiving side (such as a base station) before FEC decoding will have the problems described below.


1. Since uncertainty exists in user detection, the receiving side cannot know the scrambling code exactly before FEC decoding is performed, which brings serious performance degradation to descrambling and decoding. For example, for grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission without reference signals, the user detection at the receiving side is uncertain, so the scrambling code cannot be known exactly before FEC decoding is performed; for the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission with the reference signals, although the scrambling code information can be obtained by detecting the reference signals using a pre-defined (configured/pre-configured) association rule between the reference signals and the scrambling code, if the number of reference signals is limited, the user detection based on the reference signals cannot be guaranteed to be absolutely accurate, and therefore the scrambling code cannot be known exactly before the FEC decoding is performed.


2. A grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) receiver can avoid the uncertainty of the scrambling code caused by the uncertainty of user detection by exhausting all possible scrambling codes, but this means that each scrambling code needs to be descrambled once and then subjected to FEC decoding once, which may result in too high FEC decoding complexity.


3. For the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission scenario where the user randomly selects a transmission signature, if the transmission is the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission with reference signals and the reference signals and scrambling codes are related, when the user randomly selects a reference signal and a scrambling code, different users may select the same reference signal and the same scrambling code, that is, collision occurs. In this case, even if the receiving side can detect the collided reference signal, the receiving side can only estimate the sum of the channels of the collided users by using the collided reference signal for channel estimation, but cannot estimate the channel of each collided user. The scrambling code of the collided users is the same, and data randomness of the collided users may be insufficient, so the interference randomness is not enough. Even if one user can be decoded correctly, the channel estimation of the user must be obtained to eliminate the interference of the user with correct decoding. The collision of the reference signal reduces the precision of the channel estimation of the user, the collision of the scrambling code also causes the precision of the channel estimation of the data of the user with correct decoding applied by the receiving side to be reduced, and finally, the interference cancellation of the data of the user with correct decoding is not accurate enough, the residual interference is large, and the demodulation performance of the following user is reduced.


For the above-mentioned problems, no effective solutions have been proposed.

In the following description, suffixes such as “module”, “component”, or “unit” used to indicate elements are used merely for facilitating the explanation of the present disclosure, and have no particular meaning in themselves. Therefore, “module”, “component” or “unit” can be used in a mixed manner.


Prefixes such as “first” and “second” used to distinguish elements are used merely for facilitating the description of the present disclosure, and have no specific meaning in themselves.


Embodiment One

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a partial pseudo-randomization processing method. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the steps described below.


In S101, pseudo-randomization processing is performed on part of N bits b1, b2, . . . , bN to generate new N bits d1, d2, . . . , dN.


In S102, the d1, d2, . . . , dN is encoded. In some embodiments, the encoding may include forward error correction (FEC) encoding or cyclic redundancy check (CRC) encoding; the forward error correction (FEC) encoding includes convolutional encoding, RS encoding, LDPC encoding, Turbo encoding Polar encoding, etc., and N is a positive integer.


The method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is executed on a transmitting side (for example, a base station). In the embodiment of the present disclosure, before the FEC encoding or the CRC encoding is performed, the pseudo-randomization processing is performed on the part of N bits b1, b2, . . . , bN to generate the new N bits d1, d2, . . . , dN and the corresponding FEC or CRC encoding is performed on the d1, d2, . . . , dN, so that on the premise of ensuring the interference randomization effect, performance of grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission can be effectively improved, complexity of encoding and decoding in the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission can be effectively reduced, and demodulation performance can be effectively improved. The problems described below can be effectively solved.


1. Since uncertainty exists in user detection, the receiving side cannot know the scrambling code exactly before FEC decoding is performed, which brings serious performance problems to descrambling and decoding. For example, for grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission without reference signals, the user detection at the receiving side is uncertain, so the scrambling code cannot be known exactly before FEC decoding is performed; for the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission with the reference signals, although the scrambling code information can be obtained by detecting the reference signals in a manner of binding the reference signals and the scrambling code, if the reference signals are fewer, the user detection based on the reference signals cannot be guaranteed to be absolutely accurate, and therefore the scrambling code cannot be known exactly before the FEC decoding is performed.


2. A grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) receiver can avoid the uncertainty of the scrambling code caused by the uncertainty of user detection by traversing all possible scrambling codes, but this means that each scrambling code needs to be descrambled once and then subjected to FEC decoding once, which may result in too high FEC decoding complexity.


3. For the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission scenario where the user randomly selects a transmission signature, if the transmission is the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) data transmission with reference signals and the reference signals and scrambling codes are bound, when the user randomly selects a reference signal and a scrambling code, different users may select the same reference signal and the same scrambling code, that is, collision occurs. In this case, even if the receiving side can detect the collided reference signal, the receiving side can only estimate the sum of the channels of the collided users by using the collided reference signal for channel estimation, but cannot estimate the channel of each collided user. The scrambling code of the collided users is the same, and data randomness of the collided users may be insufficient, so the interference randomness is not enough. Even if one user can be decoded correctly, the channel estimation of the user must be obtained to eliminate the interference of the user with correct decoding. The collision of the reference signal reduces the precision of the channel estimation of the user, the collision of the scrambling code also causes the precision of the channel estimation of the data of the user with correct decoding applied by the receiving side to be reduced, and finally, the interference cancellation of the data of the user with correct decoding is not accurate enough, the residual interference is large, and the demodulation performance of the following user is reduced.

Embodiment Two

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a partial pseudo-randomization processing method. As shown in FIG. 4, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a scrambling method in pseudo-randomization processing is taken as an example, and the method includes the steps described below.


In S401, part of N bits are scrambled and remaining bits are processed in a method agreed with a receiving side to generate new N bits, that is, Kbits among the N bits are scrambled, and remaining (N−K) bits are processed in a method agreed with the receiving side to generate new N bits.


In S402, the new N bits are encoded, that is, the scrambled K bits and the (N−K) bits processed in a method agreed with the receiving side are encoded.

Embodiment Three

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a partial pseudo-randomization processing method. As shown in FIG. 5, the method includes the steps described below.


In S501, encoded N bits are decoded.


In S502, pseudo-randomization removing processing is performed on K bits among the decoded N bits to recover N bits before pseudo-randomization processing is performed on a transmitting side; where K is greater than 0 and less than or equal to N.


According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, on the premise of ensuring the interference randomization effect, the performance of grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission can be effectively improved, the complexity of encoding and decoding in the grant-free (truly grant free, autonomous grant-free) transmission can be effectively reduced, and the demodulation performance can be effectively improved.


The method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is executed on a receiving side (for example, a client).


For example, when the transmitting side performs scrambling processing on part of N bits b1, b2, . . . , bN to generate new N bits d1, d2, . . . , dN and then performs CRC encoding on d1, d2, . . . , dN the receiving side performs descrambling processing on K bits among the N bits that pass a CRC check. The processed N bits constitute the decoded N bits.


When the transmitting side performs scrambling processing on part of the N bits b1, b2, . . . , bN to generate new N bits d1, d2, . . . , dN and then performs forward error correction (FEC) encoding on d1, d2, . . . , dN, the receiving side performs descrambling processing on the K bits among the N bits subjected to the forward error correction (FEC) decoding, and then determines whether the N bits part of which are subjected to pseudo-randomization removing processing are correct through the CRC check. The N bits that pass the CRC check constitute the decoded N bits.


In some embodiments, the step of performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on K bits among the decoded N bits may include: performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on the K bits according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits; or performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on the K bits according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and information S agreed between the transmitting side and a receiving side; or performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on the Kbits according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and a bit sequence M agreed between the transmitting side and a receiving side.


In some embodiments, the step of performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on K bits among the decoded N bits may include: performing descrambling processing on the K bits by using a pseudo-random sequence of length K.


In some embodiments, the step of performing pseudo-randomization removing processing on K bits among the decoded N bits includes: descrambling scrambled K bits among the decoded N bits. The method for determining the scrambling code during descrambling includes a step described below.


The scrambling code is generated by using a pseudo-random sequence generator based on a shift register, or the scrambling code is determined through a memory or lookup table storing the scrambling code.


In some embodiments, when a pseudo-random sequence generator based on a shift register may be used to generate the scrambling code, an initial state of the pseudo-random sequence generator may be determined according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits, or jointly determined according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and information S agreed between the transmitting side and the receiving side; or jointly determined according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and a bit sequence M agreed between the transmitting side and the receiving side.


The information S agreed between the transmitting side and the receiving side includes at least one of: a system frame index (that is a system frame number), a transmission slot index (that is a transmission slot number or a symbol index), a cell identifier, a sector identifier, a beam identifier, related information of a preamble and a demodulation pilot, or agreed information.

In some embodiments, the scrambling code may be looked up based on a scrambling code lookup table to be stored on the receiving side. For example, the scrambling code lookup table stores a scrambling code of length K in each storage unit, has 2N−K storage units in total, and stores 2N−K scrambling codes with each of length K, that is, the addressing bits of the scrambling code lookup table are (N−K) bits; or one column of the scrambling code lookup table may be (N−K) bits or a certain value or some values obtained by mapping the (N−K) bits, and the other column is a scrambling code of length K. In addition to the table, a certain mapping rule may also be used, a scrambling code or a part of the scrambling code is obtained from (N−K) bits or some values generated by the (N−K) bits, and the final scrambling code may be obtained by performing certain operations and by using the part of the scrambling code. For example, the addressing of a scrambling sequence memory or the lookup table may be determined according to other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits, or jointly determined according to the other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and the information S agreed between the transmitting side and the receiving side; or jointly determined according to the other (N−K) bits among the decoded N bits and the bit sequence M agreed between the transmitting side and the receiving side.

In some embodiments, a symbol is generated according to a symbol generation process on a transmitting side, and the symbol is used for channel estimation, so that interference cancellation can be performed according to an estimated channel, and thus the accuracy of channel estimation of an Internet of things (IoT) device during interference cancellation is effectively improved, residual interference is reduced, and multi-user detection performance is improved.
