The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail in an illustrative manner below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 shows the flow chart of the subframe configuration method 100 according to an embodiment of the invention.The present invention's should A kind of new subframe structure, i.e. UL rate-matcheds subframe are proposed in embodiment.UL rate-matcheds subframe is based on existing many Broadcast broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) subframe.
It is known just to define MBSFN sub-frame in LTE first version.As its name suggests, the initial purposes of MBSFN sub-frame is Support MBSFN transmission.As shown in Fig. 2 existing MBSFN sub-frame includes one or two long OFDM (OFDM) symbols It is MBSFN regions after control area, control area, the structure and content in MBSFN regions depend on the purposes of MBSFN sub-frame. According to LTE protocol, the UE of Rel-8 and later version can be received to the transmission in the control area of MBSFN sub-frame, and The UE of the transmission, which can not be received, will simply ignore these transmission.Moreover, according to LTE protocol, Rel-8/9UE will not be right The transmission in MBSFN regions is made a response.
The subframe configuration method 100 and UL speed according to an embodiment of the invention are described referring to Fig. 1 With subframe.As shown in figure 1, after method 100 starts, in step S101, it would be possible to be reconfigured into the DL subframe for UL subframe In at least one DL subframe be configured to UL rate-matched subframes, wherein UL rate-matcheds subframe is transmitted in an ofdm fashion, and First in UL rate-matched subframes or the first two OFDM symbol are not used in UL transmission.In one embodiment, Ke Yigen The number for being configured as the subframe of UL rate-matched subframes is determined with system configuration according to reconfiguring.
Fig. 3 shows the example format of the UL rate-matched subframes according to an embodiment of the invention.Such as Fig. 3 institutes Show, first of UL rate-matched subframes or the first two symbol correspond to the control area of MBSFN sub-frame.
As it was noted above, Rel-8/9UE can be received to the transmission in the control area of MBSFN sub-frame, so can The reference signal measured for UE is sent with the resource unit by the control area of MBSFN sub-frame.If Advanced Edition UE UL transmission is carried out during the control area transmission, then can cause severe jamming to Rel-8/9UE measurement.Therefore, root According to embodiments of the present invention, first in UL rate-matched subframes or the first two OFDM symbol are not configured to carry out UL Transmission.Because Rel-8/9UE can only receive the transmission of the control area of MBSFN sub-frame, UL rate-matcheds as described above UL transmission in subframe will not be interfered to Rel-8/9UE measurement.
, can be when entering Mobile state TDD UL-DL configurations, it is to avoid DL subframe according to this subframe configuration method of the present invention Become to interfere traditional UE DL measurement operations after UL subframe.
In one embodiment, first or the first two OFDM subframe of UL rate-matched subframes are punched, with It is set to be not used in UL transmission.
In one embodiment, and then match somebody with somebody in UL rate-matched subframes after first or the first two OFDM symbol Put protective time slot.As shown in figure 3, in UL rate-matched subframes, it is after back to back first or the first two OFDM symbol Protective time slot.
Because inevitably there is time delay in DL transmitting procedures, so if the UE of Advanced Edition is and then previous UL transmission is carried out after to two OFDM symbols, then eNB reception can be interfered.Therefore, in previous to two OFDM symbols Protective time slot is set to be necessary after number.
In one embodiment, at least one OFDM symbol after protective time slot is configured to carry out UL transmission. As shown in figure 3, the resource in UL rate-matched subframes after protective time slot is used for transmitting uplink data
In one embodiment, the length of protective time slot can be determined based on different cell environments.For example, can root The length is determined according to radius of society.It may occur to persons skilled in the art that can be according to the configuration protection period in existing S subframes Mode configure the length of the protective time slot in UL rate-matched subframes.In one embodiment, can be by protective time slot Length be configured with less than the length of an OFDM symbol, so as to reserve more resources for UL transmission.
In one embodiment, the UL subframe that will not be changed after can reconfiguring is configured to standard UL subframe.
Above-mentioned subframe configuration method can be performed at network element (such as eNB) place.Now can be by UL rate-matcheds The configuration information of frame is supplied to UE in reconfiguration information or by channel signaling by eNB.
Alternatively, above-mentioned subframe configuration method can also be performed at terminal (such as UE) place.For example, UE can be according to SIB1 TDD configurations and dynamic TDD UL-DL configure the TDD that may reconfigure configure judge which DL subframe be possible to be reconfigured into as UL subframe, and correspondingly configure UL rate-matched subframes.Identical configuration rule can be used at eNB and UE, thus Extra signaling is not needed to carry out transmitting configuration information.
Fig. 4 shows the flow chart of subframe configuration method 400 according to another implementation of the invention.
As shown in figure 4, after method 400 starts, in step S401, it would be possible to be reconfigured into the DL subframe for UL subframe In at least one DL subframe be configured to MBSFN sub-frame.
As it was previously stated, Rel-8/9UE can be received to the transmission in the control area of MBSFN sub-frame.If be directed to The UL of Advanced Edition by may potentially be changed into from DL subframe UL subframe sub-frame configuration be set forth herein UL rate-matcheds Subframe, then these sub-frame configurations are MBSFN sub-frame in traditional UE by pin, and DL subframe can be avoided to become after UL subframe to traditional UE DL measurement operation interfere, so as to solve traditional UE backward compatibility issues.
Below by taking existing LTE protocol as an example, illustrate the mode for configuring MBSFN sub-frame.According to the regulation of agreement, in TDD In, subframe #0, #1, #5 and #6 as shown in table 1 can not be configured as MBSFN sub-frame, and being so left remaining six subframe can Using the candidate as MBSFN sub-frame.When entering Mobile state TDD UL-DL and reconfiguring, only subframe #3, #4, #7, #8 and #9 is possible to It is changed into UL from DL, so these subframes can be configured as MBSFN sub-frame.However, it may occur to persons skilled in the art that this hair Bright embodiment and the concrete regulation for being limited to above-mentioned LTE protocol, but can apply to exist any MBSFN sub-frame candidate with And in the case of any TDD configurations.
Equally, as described in method 100, it can be determined to be configured as MBSFN according to UL business demands and system configuration The number of the subframe of frame.
In an embodiment of the invention, first of MBSFN sub-frame or the first two OFDM symbol are configured to The DL transmission of reference signal.That is, eNB normally can send reference signal on the control area of MBSFN sub-frame.Phase Ying Di, traditional UE perform measurement based on the reference signal transmitted on the control area.In this case, due at this to two There is no UL operations in individual OFDM symbol, influenceed so tradition UE will not be disturbed by UL.
Equally, in one embodiment, the UL subframe that will not be changed after can reconfiguring is configured to standard UL Subframe.
Subframe configuration method 400 equally can both have been performed at network element, can also be performed in end.Implement Mode is similar with described in method 100, will not be repeated here.
Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of the subframe configuration method 500 of the further embodiment according to the present invention.
As shown in figure 5, after method 500 starts, in step S501, it would be possible to be reconfigured into the DL subframe for UL subframe In at least one DL subframe fixed configurations be DL subframe for reference signal transmission so that described in when dynamic frame is configured extremely A few downlink subframe will not be reconfigured into as uplink sub-frames.
In one embodiment, the TDD with reference to shown in table 1 configures #1, and subframe #4&#9 is regularly configured for The DL subframe of reference signal transmission.So, these DL subframes cannot be reconfigured into as UL subframe, thus will not be to user survey Amount operation is interfered.Equally, it may occur to persons skilled in the art that embodiments of the present invention and being limited to shown in table 1 TDD is configured, but any TDD can be used to configure.
Because according to the embodiment of the present invention, some subframes are DL subframe by fixed configurations, so dynamic TDD UL- The TDD configurations that DL configurations may be reconfigured can be correspondingly restricted.It is the chosen feelings of the subframe of DL subframe in fixed configurations Under condition, the configuration set that may be reconfigured include DL subframe set it is identical with the DL subframe set of fixed configurations or fixation match somebody with somebody The configuration of the superset for the DL subframe set put, to avoid the UL interference of the DL measurements to traditional UE.For example, what if SIB1 was transmitted Configuration is configuration #1, then subframe #4&#9 can be regularly configured for the DL subframe of reference signal transmission.So, Gu Surely the DL subframe configured is subframe #0, #4, #5 and #9 }.Because configuring #1, #2, #4 and #5 DL subframe set with configuration #1's Sub-frame set is identical, or configuration #1 DL subframe set superset, it is possible that TDD to reconfigure set be { #1, #2, # 4, #5 }.
In an embodiment of the invention, the downlink subframe fixed configurations during present frame can be configured are use In the downlink subframe of reference signal transmission so that the downlink subframe when carrying out dynamic frame configuration in present frame configuration It will not be reconfigured into as uplink sub-frames.For example, TDD configurations can be fixed as to some configuration, for example, configure #1.
In an embodiment of the invention, when UE discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle can be set and waking up lasting Between so that the DL subframe waken up in the duration in DRX cycle is DL for reference signal transmission by fixed configurations Frame, so as to will not be reconfigured into as UL subframe by the DL subframe of fixed configurations when dynamic frame is configured.
Generally, UE saves the power of battery using DRX.In a DRX cycle, UE intercepts net within the wake-up duration Network, and its receiver is then closed in other times, into energy-saving mode.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, it will not be reconfigured into as UL subframe waking up DL subframe in the duration, thus UE DL measurements will not be disturbed by UL, can normally be performed.And in the other times of DRX cycle, because UE receiver It is closed, so any interference will not also be produced by being changed into UL subframe even if DL subframe.
DRX cycle according to the embodiment of the present invention is described referring to Fig. 6 (a) and Fig. 6 (b) and wakes up the duration Example.
As shown in Fig. 6 (a), if the TDD configurations transmitted by SIB1, which are configuration #2, traditional UE, will use the TDD always Configuration, is reconfigured until by SIB1 signalings to it.If however, the UE of Rel-11 and later version supports the time The shorter dynamic TDD UL-DL of yardstick are reconfigured, then are configured according to the TDD shown in table 1, and subframe #3, #8, #4 and/or #9 can be with Changed based on business and be changed into UL subframe.Assuming that because the increase TDD configurations of UL business are changed into #0, such subframe #3, #4, #8 and #9 UL subframe is changed into from DL subframe.In this case, if tradition UE performs the survey such as RRM/RLM, CQI also in these subframes Amount, then measurement can be disturbed by serious UL, so as to cause the measurement statistical value reported to eNB inaccurate.
According to an embodiment of the invention, shown in such as Fig. 6 (a), DRX cycle is set to 5ms, the wake-up duration sets For 2ms so that fixed to keep constant DL subframe (such as subframe #0, #1, #5 and #6) to be comprised in the wake-up duration, and And the subframe (such as subframe #3, #4, #8 and #9) for being changed into UL subframe from DL subframe is comprised in the other times of DRX cycle. So, because other times of the UE by its receiver in DRX cycle are closed, therefore UE will not be in and may be held in the subframe of change Row DL is measured, so as to avoid the generation of above-mentioned disturbed condition.
Fig. 6 (b) shows DRX cycle and wakes up another example of duration.In Fig. 6 (b), pass through dynamic TDD UL-DL is reconfigured, and TDD configurations are changed into configuring #2 from configuration #5.Now, in order to avoid UE measurement disturbed by UL, DRX cycle and The wake-up duration is separately arranged as 10ms and 3ms.
Equally, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that embodiments of the present invention and be limited to the TDD shown in table 1 configuration, But can apply in the case of using any TDD configurations.
The DRX cycle shown in Fig. 6 (a) and Fig. 6 (b) is respectively set to the length of field and a frame, or its integral multiple Length.However, this is only example, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that DRX cycle and wake-up duration can roots Set according to possible TDD configurations.
Equally, subframe configuration method 500 can both be performed at network element (such as eNB) place, can also be at terminal (such as UE) Place is performed.If performed at eNB, DL subframe configuration information can be included in reconfiguration information or be believed by channel Make, DRX cycle configuration information by channel signaling is supplied to UE by eNB.If performed at UE, UE can be according to SIB1 TDD configurations and dynamic TDD UL-DL configure the TDD that may reconfigure configure judge which DL subframe be possible to be reconfigured into as UL subframe, and correspondingly configured.It is also possible to identical configuration rule be used at eNB and UE, so as to be required for Extra signaling carrys out transmitting configuration information.
