The following clearly describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some rather than all of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of this application shall fall within the protection scope of this application.
The terms “first”, “second”, and the like in this specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish between similar objects rather than to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that terms used in this way are interchangeable in appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in other orders than the order illustrated or described herein. In addition, “first” and “second” are usually used to distinguish objects of a same type and do not limit the quantity of objects. For example, there may be one or a plurality of first objects. In addition, “and” in the specification and claims represents at least one of connected objects, and the character “I” generally indicates an “or” relationship between the contextually associated objects.
It should be noted that technologies described in the embodiments of this application are not limited to a long term evolution (LTE) or LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) system, and may also be applied to other wireless communications systems, for example, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), frequency division multiple access (FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA), and other systems. The terms “system” and “network” in the embodiments of this application are often used interchangeably. The technology described may be used in the above-mentioned systems and radio technologies as well as other systems and radio technologies. In the following descriptions, a new radio (NR) system is described for an illustration purpose, and NR terms are used in most of the following descriptions, although these technologies may also be applied to other applications than an NR system application, for example, the 6th generation (6th Generation, 6G) communications system.
For better understanding of the embodiments of this application, the following technical points are first described.
1. SFN Transmission Scheme
In SFN network deployment, a plurality of remote radio heads (RRH) (or TRP) are connected to one baseband processing unit (BBU), so that a terminal does not need to frequently switch base stations during high-speed movement. In addition, the plurality of RRH (TRP) send same data to the terminal, as shown in
Different position relationships between the terminal and the plurality of RRHs (TRPs) cause transmission signals arriving at the terminal from the plurality of RRHs (TRPs) to have different powers, time delays, phases, and Doppler frequency shifts. When the terminal is in different positions on the rail, SFN signals transmitted to the terminal experience completely different channel characteristics. When the SFN signals from two RRHs (TRPs) arrive at the terminal with a long delay, the SFN signals may be subject to severe deep fading in the frequency domain; and the terminal moving at high speed between the two RRHs causes two Doppler frequency offset effects with opposite signs in the received signal, thereby leading to deep fading in the time domain of the SFN signal. Therefore, to improve the receiving performance of the terminal, the network can dynamically switch the transmission scheme based on a moving position of the terminal, thereby improving the receiving performance of the terminal.
2. Control Resource Set (CORESET) and Search Space (SS)
In the related art, the network can configure a plurality of CORESETs. The configuration of a CORESET includes a number of consecutive symbols, frequency domain resources, precoding granularity, interleaving mode, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) mapping type, and the like. A plurality of search spaces can be configured in each CORESET, and the terminal monitors in the plurality of PDCCH search spaces. The configuration of a search space includes the aggregation level, periodicity, and offset for PDCCH monitoring (to determine a monitoring occasion) and the like. At a same moment, the terminal may need to perform physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in the plurality of CORESETs.
The search space is further divided into a common search space (CSS) and a terminal-specific search space (UUSS). The CSS is used to transmit control information related to broadcast control channel (BCCH), paging, random access response (RAR), and the like. The USS is used to transmit control information related to downlink shared channel (DL-SCH), uplink shared channel (UL-SCH), and the like.
3. Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) State and Quasi Co-Location (QCL)
A TCI state is used to indicate the QCL reference relationship between two antenna ports.
QCL means that the average channel delay, delay spread, Doppler frequency offset, Doppler spread, and spatial receive parameters experienced by a symbol on one antenna port can be inferred through another antenna port. Four different types of QCL relationships are designed in new radio (NR) to address different transmission scenarios.
(1) Quasi co-location type A (QCL-TypeA), {Doppler frequency shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread}.
(2) Quasi co-location type B (QCL-TypeB), {Doppler frequency shift, Doppler spread}.
(3) Quasi co-location type C (QCL-TypeC), {Doppler frequency shift, average delay}.
(4) Quasi co-location type D (QCL-TypeD), {spatial receive parameter}.
For the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), the radio resource control (RRC) configures a maximum of M (M≤128) TCI states, and the media access control (MAC) control element (CE) activates N (N≤8) TCI states therefrom, and finally the downlink control information (DCI) indicates one of these N TCI states. For the PDCCH, RRC configures a maximum of L (L≤64) TCI states for each CORESET, and these L TCI states come from the M TCI states configured by RRC for PDSCH. The MAC CE activates one of the L TCI states for a CORESET.
(1) In a case that a PDCCH is DCI format 1_1 (DCI format 1_1) and that a TCI state is configured in an RRC parameter:
(2) In a case that DCI is DCI format 1_0 (DCI format 1_0) and that no TCI state is configured in the RRC parameter:
4. Multi-TRP (Multiple Transmission Reception Point, MTRP) transmission scheme
In NR-related protocols, multiple MTRP transmission schemes are defined as follows:
Scheme 2a, Scheme 2b, Scheme 3, and Scheme 4 are indicated by RRC high-level parameters, respectively.
(1) Scheme 2a: The RRC parameter (RepetitionSchemeConfig-r16) is configured as FDM-TDM-r16, the parameter (repetitionScheme-r16) in FDM-TDM-r16 is configured as fdmSchemeA, the number of code-division multiplexing (CDM) groups (group) for the PDSCH is 1, and the number of TCI states indicated is 2.
(2) Scheme 2b: The RRC parameter (RepetitionSchemeConfig-r16) is configured as FDM-TDM-r16, the parameter (repetitionScheme-r16) in FDM-TDM-r16 is configured as fdmSchemeB, the number of CDM groups for the PDSCH is 1, and the number of TCI states indicated is 2.
(3) Scheme 3: The RRC parameter (RepetitionSchemeConfig-r16) is configured as FDM-TDM-r16, the parameter (repetitionScheme-r16) in FDM-TDM-r16 is configured as tdmSchemeA, the number of CDM groups for the PDSCH is 1, and the number of TCI states indicated is 2.
(4) Scheme 4: The RRC parameter (RepetitionSchemeConfig-r16) is configured as SlotBased-r16, the RRC parameter PDSCH-config indicates that the PDSCH time domain allocation list (pdsch-TimeDomainAllocationList) has at least one PDSCH time domain resource allocation (PDSCH-TimeDomainResourceAllocation) containing the parameter representing RepNumR16, the number of CDM groups for the PDSCH is 1, and the number of TCI states indicated is 2.
(5) Scheme 1: The pdsch-TimeDomainAllocationList indicated by the RRC parameter PDSCH-config has no any PDSCH-TimeDomainResourceAllocation containing the RepNumR16 parameter, the number of CDM groups for the PDSCH is 2, and the number of TCI states indicated is 2.
In the SFN transmission scheme (such as in the high-speed rail network), the terminal may enable a specific receiving algorithm to receive information transmitted in an SFN scheme, and the specific receiving algorithm is implemented differently from a conventional STRP receiving algorithm.
When the network dynamically indicates the terminal to switch from the SFN transmission scheme to STRP transmission, due to the limitation of terminal capability, the terminal may not be able to dynamically switch the receiving algorithm from the SFN transmission scheme to an STRP transmission scheme immediately; or, when the network sends a PDCCH using an STRP transmission scheme but sends a PDSCH using the SFN transmission scheme, the terminal has to dynamically switch the receiving algorithm back and forth in a timely manner when receiving the PDCCH and the PDSCH, which poses certain challenges for the terminal.
From another perspective, if the terminal can dynamically switch the receiving algorithm in a timely manner, the terminal may need to maintain related operations of the two sets of receiving algorithms simultaneously to prepare for immediate switching, which can lead to an increase in terminal power consumption and unnecessary redundant computational overhead when dynamic switching is not required.
The network-side device 22 may be a base station or a core network, where the base station may be referred to as a NodeB, an evolved NodeB, an access point, a base transceiver station (BTS), a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a basic service set (BSS), an extended service set (ESS), a NodeB, an evolved NodeB (eNB), a home NodeB, a home evolved NodeB, a WLAN access point, a WiFi node, a transmission reception point (TRP), a wireless access network node, or another appropriate term in the art. Provided that the same technical effects are achieved, the base station is not limited to a specific technical term. It should be noted that the base station in the NR system is merely used as an example in the embodiments of this application, but a specific type of the base station is not limited.
