Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a structural diagram of a transmission system of a PBCH signal according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the transmission system includes a user terminal 11 and a base station 12, where the user terminal 11 may be a ue (user equipment), for example: the terminal side Device may be a Mobile phone, a Tablet Personal Computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a Laptop Computer (Laptop Computer), a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Mobile Internet Device (MID), or a Wearable Device (Wearable Device), and it should be noted that the specific type of the user terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention. The base station 12 may be a 5G base station (e.g., a gNB or a 5G NRNB), and it should be noted that the specific type of the base station 12 is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
It should be noted that the specific functions of the user terminal 11 and the base station 12 are described in detail through a plurality of embodiments below.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for transmitting a PBCH signal according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a base station, and as shown in fig. 2, the method includes the following steps:
The OFDM symbol occupied by the SSS may be one OFDM symbol in a time domain resource occupied by the SS block, for example: and the 3 rd OFDM symbol in the time domain resources occupied by the SS block. In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, the SSS only occupies a part of frequency domain resources in the OFDM symbol, for example: as shown in fig. 3, the SSS occupies 127 consecutive subcarriers, and specifically may occupy only the complete subcarrier resources with the length of 10 PRBs on 1 OFDM symbol, and the SSS is mapped on 3 and 4 subcarriers on the adjacent subcarrier resources on both sides of these subcarriers, respectively.
Since the SSS only occupies a part of the frequency domain resources, PBCH signals may be transmitted to the user terminals over frequency resources not occupied by the SSS. For example: as shown in fig. 4, the PSS is transmitted in the first OFDM symbol, the PBCH signal is transmitted in the 2 nd OFDM symbol, the SSS is transmitted in the 3 rd OFDM symbol, and the PBCH signal is transmitted in the 4 th OFDM symbol for example, wherein the PBCH signal is also transmitted in the 3 rd OFDM symbol.
The DMRSs, to which PBCH is not mapped, in the frequency resources not occupied by the SSS may be understood as that the DMRSs are not transmitted on the frequency-domain resources. The DMRS sequence initialized by the cell ID may be understood as that the cell ID is used for initializing the DMRS sequence, and time information is not used, that is, the DMRS sequence is not related to the time information, or does not carry the time information and is only related to the cell ID.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the execution sequence of step 201 and step 202 is not limited, for example: step 201 may be performed first, and then step 202 is performed, as shown in fig. 2, or partial operations in step 202 (for example, PBCH signal is transmitted on the 2 nd OFDM symbol) may be performed first, then step 201 is performed to transmit the 3 rd OFDM symbol, and then the remaining operations in step 202 (for example, PBCH signal is transmitted on the 4 th OFDM symbol) are performed, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
The at least one OFDM symbol may be an OFDM symbol consecutive to an OFDM symbol occupied by the SSS, for example: the SS block occupies 4 consecutive OFDM symbols, then at least one OFDM symbol may be the 2 nd and 4 th OFDM symbols, and the SSs occupies OFDM symbol the 3 rd OFDM symbol.
Through the steps, the DMRS of the PBCH can not be mapped in the frequency resources which are not occupied by the SSS, so that more resources can be used for transmitting the PBCH, and the transmission performance of the PBCH is improved.
In addition, because a DMRS sequence initialized by a cell ID may be mapped to a frequency resource not occupied by the SSS, the user terminal may perform channel estimation using the DMRS sequence received by the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS to obtain a DMRS channel estimation value, and perform channel estimation using the received SSS to obtain a SSS channel estimation value; and using the DMRS channel estimation value and the SSS channel estimation value to carry out coherent detection on the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol so as to obtain the time information of the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol. Since coherent detection is performed on the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol, the detection performance of the carried time information can be improved.
It should be noted that the above method can be applied to a 5G NR system, but is not limited thereto, and for example: but also to future 6G systems, etc.
It should be noted that, since the above method can be applied to NR system, SSS may be referred to as NR SSS, PSS may be referred to as NR PSS, and PBCH may be referred to as NR PBCH.
In the embodiment of the invention, PBCH signals are transmitted to a user terminal by frequency resources which are not occupied by SSS on OFDM symbols which are occupied by the SSS, wherein the frequency resources which are not occupied by the SSS do not map DMRS of PBCH, or the frequency resources which are not occupied by the SSS are mapped with DMRS sequences initialized by cell ID; transmitting a PBCH signal to the user terminal on at least one OFDM symbol other than the OFDM symbol occupied by the SSS. Since the PBCH is transmitted on the OFDM symbol occupied by the SSS, the DMRS of the PBCH can be not mapped, or the DMRS initialized by the cell ID is mapped, more resources can be used for transmitting the PBCH, and the transmission performance of the PBCH is improved.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of another PBCH signal transmission method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a base station, and as shown in fig. 5, the method includes the following steps:
Optionally, the frequency resources not occupied by the SSS include:
a Physical Resource Block (PRB) not occupied by the SSS; and/or
Resource Elements (REs) in PRBs occupied by the SSS that are not occupied by the SSS.
In this embodiment, it may be implemented that PRBs not occupied by SSS are used for PBCH transmission, and if there are unoccupied REs in the PRBs occupied by SSS, the PRBs may also be used for PBCH transmission, so as to improve transmission performance of PBCH. For example: as shown in fig. 3, REs in the left and right PRBs that are not occupied by SSS may be used for PBCH transmission.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the RE resources occupied by the PBCH signal may be mapped through a sequence of a first frequency direction and a second time direction.
In this embodiment, the PBCH signal may be mapped to the 2 nd, 3 rd and 4 th OFDM symbols in the order of the frequency direction first and the time direction later, so as to improve the transmission performance of the PBCH signal. Of course, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit this, and in some scenarios, the mapping may be performed first in time and then in frequency.
Optionally, if the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS is mapped with a DMRS sequence, the density of the DMRS sequence mapped to the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS on the PRB is 1/4.
The density of the DMRS sequences on the PRB is 1/4, which means that 1 RE in every 4 REs is occupied by the DMRS sequences, and the remaining 3 REs are occupied by the PBCH. Further, the RE intervals occupied by the DMRS sequences are equal. In this embodiment, since the density of DMRS sequences on a PRB is 1/4, the PBCH mediation performance can be improved. Of course, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, for example: the density of DMRS sequences on PRBs may be 1/3 or 1/5, etc. in some scenarios.
Optionally, a starting position of the DMRS sequence mapped to the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS is related to the cell ID.
The starting position may be a starting subcarrier number, and the correlation between the starting position and the cell ID may be understood as that the starting position of the DMRS sequence may be determined by the cell ID, so that REs occupied by the DMRS sequence may be reasonably allocated to improve demodulation performance of the DMRS sequence. For example: the starting position of the DMRS sequence mapped to the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS may be mod (cell ID, 4), where mod is a complementation function and the cell ID is a cell ID. When the numbers in 1 PRB start from 0 and are 0,1, …,11, the starting position of the DMRS sequence is mod (Cell ID, 4). In this embodiment, since the starting subcarrier number of the DMRS sequence is mod (cell ID, 4), REs occupied by the DMRS sequence may be reasonably allocated, so as to improve demodulation performance of the DMRS sequence.
Step 502 may be understood as the PBCH signal on the at least one OFDM symbol occupying contiguous frequency domain resources. For example: SS Block occupies 20 PRBs, PBCH is transmitted on 20 consecutive PRBs on SS Block 2 nd and 4 th OFDM symbols.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, step 502 is optional, and may be understood as a limitation to step 202, for example: the PBCH signal on the at least one OFDM symbol occupies non-contiguous frequency domain resources in some scenarios.
Optionally, the DMRS sequence is mapped on the at least one OFDM symbol, a density of the DMRS sequence mapped on the at least one OFDM symbol in a PRB occupied by a PBCH signal is 1/4, and the DMRS sequence mapped on the at least one OFDM symbol is initialized by a cell ID and time information.
In this embodiment, the DMRS sequences mapped by at least one OFDM symbol (e.g., the 2 nd and 4 th OFDM symbols) are initialized by the cell ID and the time information, and the density in the PRB occupied by the PBCH signal is 1/4. For example: as shown in fig. 6, one RE out of every 4 REs is occupied by a DMRS sequence. And because the mapped DMRS sequence is initialized through the cell ID and the time information, the time information can be effectively transmitted to the user terminal, so that the transmission performance of the PBCH is improved.
Further, the DMRS sequence mapped on the at least one OFDM symbol may be initialized by a cell ID and 3-bit time information. When the maximum SS block number L in one synchronization signal set (SS burst set) period (5ms) is 4, the 3-bit time information is SS block time index (SS block time index) of 2 bits and 1-bit half radio frame indication (half radio frame indication) information. If the maximum SS block number L in one synchronization signal set (SS burst set) period (5ms) is greater than 4, the 3-bit time information is the low-order bits of the SS block time index of 3 bits.
Through the steps, the PBCH signals can be transmitted to the user terminal by using the frequency resources which are not occupied by the SSS on the OFDM symbols occupied by the SSS, and the DMRS of the PBCH is not mapped, so that more resources can be used for transmitting the PBCH signals, and the transmission performance of the PBCH signals can be improved. And the user terminal can use the DMRS sequence received on at least one OFDM symbol to carry out channel estimation to obtain a channel estimation value, and use the channel estimation value to demodulate the frequency resource which is not occupied by the SSS. For example: performing channel estimation by using the DMRS sequences received by the 2 nd and 4 th OFDM symbols to obtain a channel estimation value, and demodulating the REs occupied by the PBCH in the 3 rd OFDM symbol, specifically, the RE occupied by the PBCH in the 3 rd OFDM symbol may be demodulated by using a weighted average value of the channel estimation values of the DMRS sequences of the 2 nd and 4 th OFDM symbols, and preferably, the RE occupied by the PBCH in the 3 rd OFDM symbol may be demodulated by using a wiener filter output value of the channel estimation value, so as to improve demodulation performance.
Through the steps, the DMRS sequences initialized by the cell ID can be mapped on the OFDM symbols occupied by the SSS, so that the user terminal can use the DMRS sequences received by the frequency resources not occupied by the SSS to perform channel estimation to obtain DMRS channel estimation values, and use the received SSS to perform channel estimation to obtain SSS channel estimation values; and using the DMRS channel estimation value and the SSS channel estimation value to carry out coherent detection on the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol so as to obtain the time information of the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol.
The coherent detection of the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol using the DMRS channel estimate and the SSS channel estimate may be performed by concatenating the DMRS channel estimate and the SSS channel estimate to obtain a channel estimate with a complete bandwidth, and performing coherent detection of the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol using the channel estimate with the complete bandwidth to obtain time information of the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol. Because coherent detection is adopted, the detection performance of the carried time information can be improved.
In addition, the user terminal can also perform channel estimation according to the DMRS sequence on the at least one OFDM symbol to obtain a channel estimation value on the at least one OFDM symbol; and using the channel estimation value on the at least one OFDM symbol to demodulate the PBCH signal on the at least one OFDM symbol; and demodulating a PBCH signal on an OFDM symbol occupied by the SSS by using the DMRS channel estimation value.
In this way, the user terminal can obtain the DMRS sequence, for example: and obtaining DMRS sequences on the 2 nd symbol and the 4 th symbol so as to obtain channel estimation values of the 2 nd symbol and the 4 th symbol, further using the corresponding channel estimation values to demodulate, and also using the DMRS channel estimation values on the symbols occupied by the SSS to demodulate PBCH signals on the OFDM symbols occupied by the SSS so as to improve the demodulation performance of the PBCH.
If the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS is mapped with a DMRS sequence, because the DMRS sequence is related to the cell identifier, the user terminal can also use the DMRS sequence received in the frequency resource not occupied by the SSS to perform channel estimation to obtain a DMRS channel estimation value, and use the received SSS to perform channel estimation to obtain a SSS channel estimation value; and performing Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement using the DMRS channel estimate and the SSS channel estimate.
Specifically, the DMRS channel estimate and the SSS channel estimate may be jointly used to perform RRM measurement for radio resource management, for example: the two channel estimation values are cascaded to obtain channel estimation of the complete bandwidth, and then RRM measurement is carried out by using the channel estimation of the complete bandwidth, so that the RRM measurement effect is improved.
