Background technology
In Long Term Evolution version 8 (LTE R8), system is only supported the transmission of single carrier wave, therefore terminal (UE) is also only measured the channel quality of single descending carrier, and the feedback measurement result, comprise order (RI) information, channel quality indication (CQI) information, pre-coding matrix indication (PMI) information etc.Concrete feedback can be used Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) to carry out periodic feedback, also can use Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) to carry out non-periodic feedback.
In LTE R8, using PUSCH to carry out non-periodic channel information feedback has multiple different feedback model, and concrete CQI/PMI feedback model is defined as follows shown in table:
Wherein, under every kind of transmission mode, optional feedback model is limited, and concrete regulation is as follows, and wherein UE concrete which kind of feedback model that uses under certain transmission mode is configured by high-level signaling by base station.
The feedback model that transmission mode is corresponding:
Transmission mode 1: feedback model 2-0,3-0;
Transmission mode 2: feedback model 2-0,3-0;
Transmission mode 3: feedback model 2-0,3-0;
Transmission mode 4: feedback model 1-2,2-2,3-1;
Transmission mode 5: feedback model 3-1;
Transmission mode 6: feedback model 1-2,2-2,3-1;
Transmission mode 7: feedback model 2-0,3-0;
Here, 7 kinds of transmission modes are respectively:
Transmission mode 1: the single antenna port, used port 0;
Transmission mode 2: transmit diversity;
Transmission mode 3: Open-Loop Spatial Multiplexing;
Transmission mode 4: Closed-Loop Spatial Multiplexing;
Transmission mode 5:MU-MIMO;
Transmission mode 6: Closed-Loop Spatial Multiplexing (RANK=1);
Transmission mode 7: the single antenna port, used port 5;
In LTE R8, RI only feeds back in transmission mode 3 and 4, and during base station configuration 2 antenna port, RI is 1 bit (bits) information.For high-grade UE, the RI fed back when base station configuration 4 antenna port is 2bits information.
Subband number defined in the bit length of UE feeds back in PUSCH CQI/PMI and concrete feedback model and system etc. is relevant, the RI information in PUSCH is first understood in base station (eNB), according to corresponding form, understands CQI/PMI information according to the number of plies of RANK.

In PUSCH, RI information is encoded separately, CQI+PMI information is encoded separately, and answering/no answering (ACK/NACK) information is also independent coding, these ascending control informations together with upstream data carry out multiplexing, as shown in Figure 1.
Multiplexing and interweave after, carry out the mapping of upstream data symbol to physical resource, first shine upon CQI/PMI information, then in surplus resources mapping uplink data.ACK/NACK and RI information are by mapping that upstream data is punched, at frequency domain after the first time domains of four row symbols of pilot tone both sides, from the low frequency to the high frequency, place ACK/NACK, be close to the first time domains of four row symbols of ACK/NACK after frequency domain from the low frequency to the high frequency, shine upon RI information, as shown in Figure 2.
In LTE R8 system, it is that CQI request (CQI request) information by 1bit in descending control information format 0 (DCI Format 0) triggers that the aperiodic CQI/PMI/RI in PUSCH sends.UE detects this information bit in DCI format 0 and is set to 1, according to the aforementioned pre-configured relevant CQI/PMI/RI information of feedback model tissue, inserts in PUSCH and sends, otherwise do not send.
For long-term evolution upgrading (LTE-Advanced) system, for supporting the system bandwidth wider than LTE system, such as 100MHz, need to couple together use by the resource by a plurality of LTE carrier waves (claiming again member carrier), two kinds of modes are specifically arranged:

The second, carry out polymerization by a plurality of discontinuous LTE carrier waves, and for LTE-A provides larger transmission bandwidth, Fig. 3 has provided the example of discontinuous carrier aggregation.
At present the research trend of standardization body is, for the common recognition of carrier aggregation system design, be that design on each carrier wave keeps as far as possible consistent with LTE R8, thereby the terminal of assurance R8 can work on each member carrier.
LTE-A system research demand is formulated at present, the maximum polymerization of supporting 5 member carriers, and a UE maximum is supported on 5 member carriers and receives simultaneously/send data.
In the research of carrier aggregation, determined the carrier aggregation of supporting that up-downgoing is asymmetric and symmetrical.Title and asymmetrical carrier aggregation can be the system perspective configurations, namely in system, support up-downgoing symmetry or the configuration of asymmetrical carrier wave; Also can be based on UE and distribute, namely a UE is assigned to up-downgoing symmetry or the configuration of asymmetrical carrier wave.
Simultaneously, in the research of carrier aggregation, also there are some motions to propose the marriage problem between the up-downgoing carrier wave, as shown in Figure 4 A and 4 B shown in FIG., between up-link carrier and descending carrier, there is arrow to connect and mean that there is pair relationhip in both, a descending carrier can match with one or more up-link carriers, otherwise a up-link carrier also can match with one or more descending carriers.This pair relationhip can be based on system (being only to have an assembly in system to relation), also can be based on (being that different user can configure different pair relationhips) of UE.
In realizing process of the present invention, the inventor finds in prior art to exist following technical problem:
