Description

Sending method, synchronous method, base station and the UE of signal
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, more particularly to the sending method of signal, synchronous method, base station and user equipment (User Equipment, UE).
Background technology
Base station generally includes two kinds of scenes of low frequency and high frequency when carrying out signal transmitting.
Under the scene of low frequency, the path loss of wireless signal is smaller, and the wave beam that each antenna port is formed is such as Fig. 1 institutes The broad beam shown, therefore can cover the user of whole cell, its broadcast channel, system message, beep-page message etc. can pass through Broad beam is launched so as to reach the good covering to community user.
Under the scene of high frequency, the path loss increase of wireless signal, if still launched with broad beam, the covering of cell Scope is very small, can not cover distant UE, as shown in Figure 2.
Under the scene of high frequency, in order that wireless signal covers distant UE, antenna spacing can be reduced, so that The open ended antenna number of unit area increases, and utilizes extensive (massive) multiple-input and multiple-output (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output, MIMO) beam forming (beamforming) technology form very high antenna gain to make up path Loss.Massive MIMO antenna can reach a lot, or even up to a hundred, while big antenna gain is formed, formation The narrower in width of wave beam (beam), narrow beam can only covering part region, all users that can not be covered in cell, example In Fig. 3, wave beam B2 can only cover UE1, and UE2 can not be covered by wave beam B2.
Under the scene that high frequency, multiple beam is sent, in order to be the user service in cell, different wave beams may need point When need the common signal channels such as broadcast channel, synchronizing channel to cover cell for the user service in cell, under each wave beam to own User so that user in cell obtains synchronous and necessary system message, so as to access cell.
Prior art is using a kind of method of bicyclic wave beam access, the network for UE access narrow beams transmissions.
Bicyclic wave beam access procedure includes the first loop and the second loop.First loop (circulation) wave beam is found for cell (discovery), UE carries out full cell scan by the cycle of the first loop, the related synchronizing channel of the first loop of detection and public Channel.For example, the cycle of the first loop is 40ms, totally 8 broadcast beams in a cycle, base station is per 40ms by finding subframe (Discovery subframe) sends 8 broadcast beam timesharing one time, each beams carry synchronizing channel and broadcast channel (physical broadcast channel, PBCH), detection and Master Information Block (the Master Information for UE Block, MIB) acquisition.UE feeds back corresponding beam information to base station based on the channel under the beam detected.
Second loop (circulation) is on the basis of the first loop beam scanning, beam information that base station is fed back based on UE, only It is scanned to the wave beam (sector beam) that UE be present, such as only sends wave beam to B2, B5 position, as shown in Figure 4. Other radio frames in cycle of first loop in addition to Discovery subframe, sector beam synchronizing channel and Common signal channel repeats to send, wherein, the cycle of the first loop is also referred to as the outer shroud cycle.
Another contrast scheme is single loop beam access schemes, i.e. all beam of base station periodic scan, periodically Send all beam synchronizing channel and common signal channel, it is not necessary to according to UE feedback carry out sector beam selection and its Synchronizing channel and common signal channel cycle through.
By bicyclic wave beam cut-in method, due to base station the second loop only need transmitting portion beam synchronizing channel and Common signal channel, compared to single loop beam access schemes, it is possible to reduce overhead, and the interference to other beam is reduced, simultaneously Save base station energy consumption.
Common bicyclic wave beam access procedure is as follows:
1) base station sends all beam discovery signals, such as master sync signal according to the first loop cycle (Primary Synchronization Signal, PSS) or auxiliary synchronous signals (Secondary Synchronization Signal, SSS) or PBCH.
2) UE detects synchronous signal obtaining Physical Cell Identifier (Physical Cell ID, PCI) and wave beam mark (Beam Id).Other obtain Beam Id method:Such as base station sends the Beam Id of corresponding wave beam by PBCH, UE obtains according to PBCH Take Beam Id.
3) UE feeds back Beam Id by the up channel associated with the first loop Beam, and base station only needs which Beam known There is UE in position, for determining the sector Beam of the second loop, it is not necessary to know specific UE information.
4) UE reads system information by receiving sector Beam, obtains PRACH configuration informations, passes through Stochastic accessing mistake Journey access system, (connected) state is connected into wireless heterogeneous networks (Radio Resource Control, RRC).
As shown in fig. 5, it is assumed that by the first loop beam scanning, UE feeds back beam ID corresponding to B0-B3, then base station B0-B3 synchronous subframe (synchronization subframe), the letter that synchronous subframe is sent are sent in the second looped cycle Road includes synchronizing channel and PBCH.Discovery subframe and synchronization subframe are in a radio frames In position be identical.The cycle of first loop is 40ms, and several radio frames send discovery before each cycle Subframe, sector beam synchronous subframe is cycled through in other subframes in cycle.
In the prior art, the design of synchronizing signal and reference signal is also according to traditional periodicity fixed mode (pattern) mode sent, UE maintain synchronization and channel measurement by these signals.Therefore, even accorded with for some subframe Number, the synchronizing signal or reference signal that its synchronous and channel measurement can be based on other subframes obtain.
Due to being covered under high frequency scene by narrow beam, each narrow beam covering is limited in scope, when the ue moves, The switching of wave beam may occur, be the wave beam of its service, in different subframes even on symbol for some UE therefore It is probably different.And the synchronizing signal and reference signal that UE receives in a wave beam are not appropriate for being used for UE in another ripple The synchronization of beam and channel measurement.
Therefore, switch the shortcomings that prior art not adapt to quick beam, the synchronization of the wave beam of present sub-frame and letter Synchronizing signal and reference signal of the road measurement dependent on other subframes, as the synchronizing signal of step frame completes synchronous, Huo Zheben The public reference signal (Cell-specific reference signals, CRS) of subframe and other subframes is smart to complete time-frequency It is synchronous.When beam switchover occurs for different subframes, synchronizing signal, reference signal from different beams can not be provided commonly for currently The Fast synchronization of subframe.
