Detailed Description
For ease of understanding, the prior art to which the present application relates is first described below.
In the current communication system, the terminal device may obtain frequency offset and uplink Time Advance (TA) according to the position information and ephemeris information (such as semi-long axis, eccentricity, orbital inclination, ascending intersection, right ascent, near-place amplitude, near-point angle and reference time) of the terminal device, so as to perform frequency offset compensation on uplink data according to the frequency offset, and/or perform compensation on transmission delay according to the time advance. However, in this scheme, the downlink frequency offset is large, and the decoding success rate of the downlink common signal, such as SSB, is low. Since the decoding result of the signal other than the downlink signal is correlated with the decoding result of the SSB, when the SSB decoding fails, the decoding of the signal other than the SSB cannot be performed. In addition, even if SSB decoding is successful, since the decoding conditions of SSB are relatively loose, if frequency offset estimation is not accurate enough according to SSB, decoding failure of other signals except SSB may be caused. That is, there is a problem that decoding success rate is low for signals other than the downlink signal.
In addition, in the above scheme for acquiring the frequency offset, the location information of the terminal device needs to be determined according to the GNSS, which has a problem of low adaptability.
In addition, the terminal device needs to acquire a Time Advance (TA) according to the location information and the ephemeris information of the terminal device, so as to send the uplink signal in advance. The process of acquiring the time advance is required to rely on a global navigation satellite system (global navigation satellite system, GNSS) to acquire the position of the terminal equipment, and has low applicability.
Technical terms related to the embodiments of the present application will be first described below.
1. Doppler shift (doppler shift) refers to the change in phase and frequency due to differences in propagation path when one device is moving in a certain direction relative to another device at a certain rate.
For example, in a satellite communication system, a doppler shift occurs between a satellite and a terminal device, and the doppler shift is highly correlated with an elevation angle (elevation angle) of the terminal device and the satellite. In satellite altitude determination, the doppler shift is related to the elevation angle of the terminal device. Taking a satellite with an orbit height of 500 kilometers (km) as an example, the satellite has a flying speed of up to 7.6 kilometers per second (kilometer per second km/s). As shown in fig. 1, the doppler shift may reach 500 kilohertz (kHz) for a terminal device where the satellite is stationary relative to the ground. As the elevation angle of the terminal device increases, the doppler shift decreases. The elevation angle of the terminal equipment is the included angle of a connecting line between the terminal equipment and the satellite relative to the ground.
In the embodiments of the present application, the doppler shift may also be referred to as a doppler shift, for example, may be simply referred to as a frequency shift, and in the following embodiments, the frequency shift is described.
2. Time Advance (TA) refers to transmission delay caused by distance in the process that the uplink signal of the UE reaches the network equipment. The terminal device may transmit the uplink signal in advance TA. For example, if the terminal device sends an uplink signal to the network device and it is desired that the uplink signal arrives at the base station at time T1, and the transmission delay between the terminal device and the base station is TA1, the terminal device may send the uplink signal at time T1-TA 1.
The technical scheme of the application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The network device 210 is a device located on the network side of the communication system and having a wireless transceiver function, or a chip system thereof. The network devices include, but are not limited to: satellite, aircraft or unmanned aerial system (unmanned aerial system, UAS).

The terminal device 220 is a terminal having a wireless transceiver function and capable of being connected to the communication system, or a chip system provided in the terminal. The terminal device 220 may also be referred to as a satellite television receiver, a user equipment, an access terminal, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a mobile station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user equipment. The terminal device in the embodiment of the present application may be a mobile phone (mobile phone), a tablet computer (Pad), a computer with a wireless transceiving function, a Virtual Reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal in industrial control (industrial control), a wireless terminal in unmanned driving (self driving), a wireless terminal in remote medical (remote medical), a wireless terminal in smart grid (smart grid), a wireless terminal in transportation security (transportation safety), a wireless terminal in smart city (smart city), a wireless terminal in smart home (smart home), a vehicle-mounted terminal, an RSU with a terminal function, or the like.

In the communication system shown in fig. 2, a connection device 230, such as a gateway (gateway), may be further included, wherein the network device 210 may communicate with the connection device 230 through a wireless link, and the connection device 230 may communicate with the core network 240.
If the network device 210 is 210a shown in fig. 2, the 210a may communicate with the terminal device 220 through a service link (service link), and the 210a may communicate with the connection device 230 through a feeder link (feeder link).

It should be appreciated that fig. 2 is a simplified schematic diagram that is illustrated for ease of understanding, and that other network devices, and/or other terminal devices, may also be included in the communication system, not shown in fig. 2.
The frequency offset compensation method provided by the embodiment of the application will be specifically described with reference to fig. 3 to 9.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a frequency offset compensation method according to an embodiment of the present application. The frequency offset compensation method can be applied to communication between the network equipment and the terminal equipment shown in fig. 1.
As shown in fig. 3, the frequency offset compensation method includes the following steps:
s301, the terminal equipment acquires a first frequency offset.
Wherein the first frequency offset is one of a plurality of candidate frequency offsets, which have been successfully decoded for the synchronization signal and the broadcast channel block (synchronization signal and physical broadcast channel block, SSB). The plurality of candidate frequency offsets are determined by the terminal device according to the frequency interval, and the frequency interval between two adjacent frequency offsets in the plurality of candidate frequency offsets is smaller than a sub-carrier space (SCS).
In the embodiment of the present application, the frequency interval may be a frequency difference between two adjacent frequency points for blind detection of SSB. It should be noted that, no other frequency point for blind detection of SSB exists between two adjacent frequency points for blind detection of SSB. For example, the frequency points for blind detection of SSB include frequency point A1 to frequency point A4. If the frequency point A1< frequency point A2< frequency point A3< frequency point A4, the frequency point A1 and the frequency point A2 are adjacent frequency points, the frequency point A2 and the frequency point A3 are adjacent frequency points, and the frequency point A3 and the frequency point A4 are two adjacent frequency points. The frequency interval is the frequency difference between the frequency point A2 and the frequency point A1, or the frequency difference between the frequency point A3 and the frequency point A2, or the frequency difference between the frequency point A4 and the frequency point A3.
Specifically, the frequency interval may be determined according to the following formula (1):
-π≤2πf d ≤π; (1)
wherein f d For Doppler frequency offset, T denotes the distance between OFDM symbols of two reference signals, i.e. the (ort) of two complete broadcast channels (physical broadcast channel, PBCH)hogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM) symbols, t=2×ts, s is the symbol length of OFDM.
From the above formula (1), it is possible to obtain a frequency interval satisfying the following formula (2):
|f d |≤1/2*2*T s ; (2)
wherein, |f d And I is the frequency interval.
For example, if the subcarrier spacing is 120kHz, the frequency spacing can be calculated to be 28kHz or less, i.e., the actual determined frequency spacing is less than or equal to |f d I, for example, 25kHz.
In a possible design, the step S301 may include steps 1 to 3, where the terminal device obtains the first frequency offset.
Step 1, a terminal device obtains a plurality of candidate frequency offsets according to frequency intervals.
The above step 1 is performed by the terminal device during a connection with the network device, for example, during a period when the terminal device enters a coverage area of the network device from an area without network coverage or during a period when the terminal device is switched from a power-off state to a power-on state. For example, after the terminal device is powered on, step 1 may be performed. That is, in the process of establishing connection at one time, the terminal device sweeps according to the frequency interval, so as to determine a plurality of candidate frequency offsets.
For example, the terminal device may determine products of different frequency offset coefficients and frequency intervals as one candidate frequency offset, thereby obtaining a plurality of candidate frequency offsets. The frequency offset coefficient is an integer and can be used for indicating the deviation degree of one frequency point relative to the central frequency point.
For example, if the determined frequency interval is 25kHz and the frequency offset is less than 500kHz, the plurality of candidate frequency offsets may be n x 25kHz, where n is an integer and |n x 25khz| <500kHz.
It will be appreciated that the 500kHz is the maximum possible frequency offset between the low-orbit satellite and the terminal device in the case where the network device is a low-orbit satellite and the orbit and velocity of the low-orbit satellite are relatively determined. 500kHz is only used as an example, and the maximum possible frequency offset between the network device and the terminal device may be other values for other network devices of different speeds, orbits, etc., such as medium-orbit satellites, high-orbit satellites, or aircraft, etc.
And 2, the terminal equipment decodes the SSB according to each candidate frequency offset.
Illustratively, the terminal device decodes the SSB according to a plurality of candidate frequency offsets determined by the frequency sweep in the last connection establishment process.
Taking a main carrier (primary carrier component, PCC) in the communication system shown in fig. 4 as an example, the subcarrier spacing of the main carrier is 120kHz, the center frequency point is 28GHz, and if the determined frequency spacing is 25kHz, the plurality of candidate frequency offsets are respectively: -3 x 25kHz, -2 x 25kHz, -25kHz, 0kHz, 25kHz, 2 x 25kHz and 3 x 25kHz, the end device may decode SSB at frequency points 28GHz-3 x 25kHz, 28GHz-2 x 25kHz, 28GHz-1 x 25kHz, 28GHz, 28ghz+1 x 25kHz, 28ghz+2 x 25kHz and 28ghz+3 x 25kHz, respectively.
And step 3, the terminal equipment determines one of the candidate frequency offsets for successfully decoding the SSB as a first frequency offset.
That is, the successfully decoded SSBs are a plurality of candidate frequency offsets determined by the frequency sweep during the last connection establishment process of the device. Taking the first connection establishment after the terminal equipment is started as an example, the candidate frequency offset of the SSB can be successfully decoded as the frequency offset corresponding to the frequency point of the SSB in the frequency sweep process of the first connection establishment.
Still taking the frequency offset shown in fig. 4 as an example, if SSB is successfully decoded at a frequency point corresponding to the frequency offset of 1×25khz, it may be determined that the first frequency offset is 1×25khz.
In another possible design, the terminal device may determine the candidate frequency offsets one by one, and after determining each candidate frequency offset, attempt to decode the SSB according to the candidate frequency offset, and then select one of the candidate frequency offsets that are successfully decoded by the SSB as the first frequency offset.
Optionally, the determining, by the terminal device, one of the candidate frequency offsets for successfully decoding the SSB as the first frequency offset may include: the terminal device determines, as the first frequency offset, a SSB with the best signal quality, such as the SSB with the largest received power, and/or a candidate frequency offset corresponding to the SSB with the largest signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (signal to interference plus noise ratio, SINR).
In the embodiment of the application, the first frequency offset is an integer multiple of the frequency interval, namely, a coarse frequency offset.
In this way, the SSB with the best signal quality and/or the candidate frequency offset corresponding to the SSB of the channel with the largest SINR are determined as the first frequency offset, so that the influence of the interference signal can be reduced, the more accurate first frequency offset can be obtained, and the decoding success rate of the downlink signal can be further improved.
It can be appreciated that in the embodiment of the present application, if one candidate frequency offset can successfully decode the SSB in the decoding process, the candidate frequency offset can be determined as the first candidate frequency offset. For example, the candidate frequency offset for which the first SSB was successfully decoded may be referred to as the first frequency offset. Thus, blind detection flow can be reduced, resource overhead is reduced, and detection efficiency is improved.
For example, if in the first mode, the SSB can be successfully decoded according to the frequency point corresponding to the candidate frequency offset 2×25kHz, the first frequency offset is 2×25kHz, that is, 50kHz.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device may also send a common signal, where the common signal includes SSB.
Optionally, a residual minimum system message (remaining minimum system information, RMSI) may also be included in the common signal.
S302, the terminal equipment performs frequency offset compensation according to the first frequency offset.
In one possible design, the terminal device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator of the terminal device according to the first frequency offset, and receive the downlink common signal, such as RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as the physical downlink control channel (physical downlink control channel, PDCCH) or the physical downlink shared channel (physical downlink share channel, PDSCH), after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator, so as to implement frequency offset compensation. Or, the terminal device may compensate the received downlink common signal, such as RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, according to the first frequency offset, so as to implement frequency offset compensation.
For example, if the terminal device needs to receive other common signals except SSB in the common signals, the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator of the terminal device may be adjusted according to the first frequency offset to perform frequency offset compensation, so that the terminal device may receive other common signals except SSB in the common signals, such as RMSI, according to the frequency of the crystal oscillator after adjusting the clock frequency. Or the terminal equipment compensates other received public signals except SSB, such as RMSI, according to the first frequency offset, thereby realizing frequency offset compensation.
Or if the terminal device needs to receive other common signals except SSB in the common signals and/or downlink channels, such as PDSCH or PDCCH, the terminal device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the first frequency offset, and the terminal device may receive other common signals except SSB in the common signals, such as RMSI, and/or downlink channels, such as PDSCH or PDCCH, after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator, so as to implement frequency offset compensation. Or the terminal equipment compensates other public signals except SSB, such as RMSI, and/or downlink channels, such as PDSCH or PDCCH, according to the first frequency offset, thereby realizing frequency offset compensation.
In a possible design, the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 3 may further include step 4.
And 4, the terminal equipment acquires a second frequency offset according to the reference signal corresponding to the SSB.
The second frequency offset is smaller than the frequency interval, that is, the second frequency offset is a fine frequency offset.
For the method for determining the second frequency offset, reference may be made to a method for determining the frequency offset in the ground network, which is not described herein.
In this case, in S302, the terminal device performs frequency offset compensation according to the first frequency offset, which may include: and the terminal equipment performs frequency offset compensation according to the first frequency offset and the second frequency offset.
The terminal device may determine the sum of the first frequency offset and the second frequency offset as a total frequency offset, and perform frequency offset compensation according to the total frequency offset. For example, the first frequency offset is 25kHz, the second frequency offset is 1kHz, the total frequency offset is 26kHz, and the terminal equipment performs frequency offset compensation according to the 26 kHz.
It can be appreciated that the implementation of the frequency offset compensation by the terminal device according to the first frequency offset and the second frequency offset is similar to the implementation principle of the frequency offset compensation according to the first frequency offset, for example, the terminal device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the total frequency offset, and receive the downlink signal, such as RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator. Alternatively, the terminal device may compensate the received downlink signal, such as RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, according to the total frequency offset.
Therefore, the terminal equipment can perform finer frequency offset compensation, and further reduce the frequency offset of the downlink signal, so that the decoding success rate of the downlink signal is further improved.
Based on the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 3, the terminal device can determine a plurality of candidate frequency offsets according to the frequency interval, and determine the candidate frequency offset which can successfully decode the SSB in the plurality of candidate frequency offsets as a first frequency offset, and further perform frequency offset compensation according to the first frequency offset, wherein the frequency interval is smaller than the subcarrier interval, so that frequency sweep according to the subcarrier interval can be avoided, the granularity of the frequency sweep can be reduced, the accuracy of frequency offset compensation of the downlink signal can be improved, the influence of the frequency offset on the downlink signal can be reduced, and the decoding success rate of the downlink data can be improved.
In addition, in the embodiment of the application, the first frequency offset can be determined without using the position information of the terminal equipment, so that the applicability can be improved.
Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart diagram of a frequency offset compensation method according to an embodiment of the present application. The frequency offset compensation method includes S501 to S502.
S501, the terminal equipment acquires a third frequency offset.
Wherein the third frequency offset is determined according to the first ephemeris information and a position of the terminal device, the first ephemeris information including one or more of: semi-major axes (semi-major axes), eccentricities (Eccentricity (eccentricity)), orbital inclinations (Inclination angle at reference time (registration)), ascending point barefoots (Longitude of ascending node of orbit plane (right ascension of the ascending node)), near point argument (Argument of perigee (argument of periapsis)), flat point angles (Mean anomaly at reference time (true anomaly and a reference point in time)), and reference times (Ephemeris reference time (the epochs)).
In the embodiment of the present application, when the first ephemeris information is specifically implemented, the square root of the semi-long axis of the satellite, that is, the square root of the semi-long axis may be used instead of the semi-long axis. In this case, as shown in table 1, the parameters related to the first ephemeris information may be divided into orbital plane parameters (orbital plane parameters) and satellite-level parameters (satellite level parameters). The location of the terminal device may be determined based on GNSS, and the method for determining the location of the terminal device may refer to the method for determining the location of the terminal device in the prior art, which is not described herein.
In a possible design, in S501, the obtaining, by the terminal device, the third frequency offset may include: and the terminal equipment acquires a third frequency offset according to the first ephemeris information and the position of the terminal equipment.

In one possible design, the terminal device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator of the terminal device according to the third frequency offset, and receive the downlink common signal, such as SSB, or RMSI, and/or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator, so as to implement frequency offset compensation. Alternatively, the terminal device may compensate the received downlink common signal, such as SSB or RMSI, and/or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, according to the third frequency offset, so as to implement frequency offset compensation.
In a possible design, the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 5 may further include steps 5 to 7.
And 5, the network equipment sends the SSB to the terminal equipment.
And 6, the terminal equipment decodes the SSB according to the third frequency offset.
The third frequency offset is a frequency offset determined according to the first ephemeris information and the position of the terminal equipment, namely a coarse frequency offset.
Illustratively, the terminal device may perform a decoding operation on the SSB after the third frequency offset compensation.
Therefore, the terminal equipment performs frequency offset compensation on the SSB according to the third frequency offset, and decodes the SSB based on the frequency offset compensation, so that the influence of the frequency offset on the SSB can be reduced, and the decoding success rate of the SSB can be improved.

And 7, the terminal equipment acquires a fourth frequency offset according to the reference signal corresponding to the SSB.
Wherein the fourth frequency offset is less than the third frequency offset. That is, the fourth frequency offset is a fine frequency offset.
For example, the reference information corresponding to the SSB may be a demodulation reference signal (demodulation reference signal, DMRS) in the PBCH.
In this case, in S502, the terminal device performs downlink frequency offset compensation according to the third frequency offset, which may include: and the terminal equipment performs downlink frequency offset compensation according to the third frequency offset and the fourth frequency offset.
For example, the terminal device may determine the sum of the third frequency offset and the fourth frequency offset as a total frequency offset, and perform frequency offset compensation according to the total frequency offset. For example, the third frequency offset is 20kHz, the fourth frequency offset is 1kHz, the total frequency offset is 21kHz, and the terminal equipment performs frequency offset compensation according to the 21 kHz.
It can be appreciated that the implementation of the frequency offset compensation by the terminal device according to the third frequency offset and the fourth frequency offset is similar to the implementation principle of the frequency offset compensation according to the third frequency offset, for example, the terminal device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the total frequency offset, and receive the downlink signal, such as SSB, or RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator. Alternatively, the terminal device may compensate the received downlink signal, such as SSB, or RMSI, or the downlink channel, such as PDCCH or PDSCH, according to the total frequency offset.
Therefore, the terminal equipment can perform finer frequency offset compensation, and further reduce the influence of frequency offset on the downlink signal, so that the decoding success rate of the downlink signal is further improved.
For the implementation of the fourth frequency offset, reference may be made to the specific implementation principle of the second frequency offset in the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 3, which is not described herein.
In a possible design, the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 5 may further include step 8 and step 9.
And 8, the network equipment sends auxiliary system information, and the terminal equipment receives the auxiliary system information.
The auxiliary system information carries second ephemeris information. The second ephemeris information may comprise one or more of: the semi-long axis, the eccentricity, the orbit inclination, the ascent and descent point, the perigee amplitude angle, the plains and the short and flat point angle of the satellite and the reference time.
In the embodiment of the application, the auxiliary system information can be a common signal except SSB in the downlink common signal, such as RMSI, SIB2, or the like.
The terminal device may receive the auxiliary system information after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the third frequency offset, so as to perform frequency offset compensation on the auxiliary system information. Or the terminal equipment can compensate the auxiliary system information according to the third frequency offset, so as to compensate the frequency offset of the auxiliary system information. In this way, after the terminal device performs frequency offset compensation on the auxiliary system information, the terminal device can decode from the auxiliary system information to obtain the second ephemeris information.
And 9, the terminal equipment updates the first ephemeris information according to the second ephemeris information.
Therefore, the terminal equipment updates the first ephemeris information according to the received second ephemeris information, and can determine the third frequency offset according to the real-time ephemeris information of the satellite under the condition that the satellite moves, so that the error of the third frequency offset caused by the satellite position change is reduced, the accuracy of frequency offset compensation is further improved, and the decoding success rate of the downlink signal is further improved.

and S601, the network equipment acquires a fifth frequency offset according to the third ephemeris information and the geographic information.
Wherein the third ephemeris information comprises one or more of: the semi-long axis, the eccentricity, the orbit inclination, the ascent and descent point, the perigee amplitude angle, the plains and the short and flat point angle of the satellite and the reference time.

The location of the coverage area of the network device may be a location within the coverage area of a beam of the network device. Illustratively, the location of the coverage area of the network device may be the center point of the coverage area of the beam. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a coverage area of a network device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, if the coverage area of the beam 1 of the network device, such as a satellite, is a circular area, the location of the coverage area of the network device may be the center of the circular area, that is, the location of the P0 point.
Alternatively, the location of the coverage area of the network device may be a plurality of locations within the coverage area of the beam. Taking fig. 7 as an example, the coverage area of the network device may be the position of the P1 point, the position of the P2 point, and the position of the P3 point.
In the embodiment of the present application, the implementation of S601 may refer to the specific implementation of S501 in the embodiment shown in fig. 5, which is not described herein. The difference between S601 in this embodiment and S501 in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 is that in S601 in this embodiment, the position of the terminal device in S501 is replaced with the position of the coverage area of the network device.
S602, the network equipment sends SSB according to the fifth frequency offset, and the terminal equipment receives the SSB.
In a possible design, the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 6 may further include step 10.
And step 10, the network equipment transmits auxiliary system information or downlink control signaling according to the fifth frequency offset.
The auxiliary system information is used for indicating the terminal equipment to perform frequency offset compensation according to the fifth frequency offset. In the embodiment of the application, the auxiliary system information can be a common signal except SSB in the downlink common signal, such as RMSI, SIB2, or the like.
For example, the network device may adjust the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the fifth frequency offset, and then send the auxiliary system information or the downlink control signaling after adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator. Or, the network device may compensate the auxiliary system information according to the fifth frequency offset, and then send the auxiliary system information or the downlink control signaling.
In this case, after decoding the auxiliary system information, the terminal device may adjust the crystal oscillator on the terminal device according to the fifth frequency offset, and then receive the downlink signal or downlink channel, such as PDSCH or PDCCH, after adjusting the crystal oscillator. Thus, the network device can complete the frequency offset compensation of the downlink public signal, and the terminal device side can complete the frequency offset compensation of the downlink data or the downlink channel.
In the embodiment of the application, the fifth frequency offset is the frequency offset determined according to the ephemeris information and the geographic information, namely the coarse frequency offset, so that the auxiliary system information indicates the terminal equipment to perform frequency offset compensation according to the fifth frequency offset, each terminal equipment can perform coarse frequency offset compensation on other downlink signals or downlink channels except SSB and auxiliary system information according to the corresponding fifth frequency offset, the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator can be prevented from being frequently adjusted when the network equipment sends data signals to different terminal equipment, the cost of the network equipment is reduced, the time for adjusting the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator is shortened, and the communication efficiency is improved.
In a possible design, the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 6 may further include step 11.
And step 11, the network equipment transmits signals except SSB in the downlink signals according to the fifth frequency offset. Among the downstream signals, signals other than SSBs may include one or more of the following: RMSI, other system information (other system information, OSI), paging (paging), downlink data channel with signals corresponding to PDSCH, downlink control channel PDCCH with signals corresponding to downlink pilot channel with channel state information reference information (CSI-RS), phase reference signals (tracking reference signal, TRS), phase tracking reference information (phase tracking reference signal, PTRS), etc. That is, the network device side performs frequency offset compensation on the downlink control signaling, the downlink data signal, or the common information except SSB in the downlink common information.
Illustratively, when transmitting the data signal, the network device adjusts the clock frequency of the crystal oscillator according to the fifth frequency offset, and then transmits the data signal or the data channel, such as PDSCH or PDCCH. Or when the network device transmits the data signal, compensating downlink data or a downlink channel, such as PDSCH or PDCCH, according to the fifth frequency offset, and then transmitting the downlink data or the downlink channel.
Therefore, the network equipment realizes coarse frequency offset compensation of the downlink data signals, and the operation of the terminal equipment can be simplified, so that the decoding efficiency of the terminal equipment is improved.
Based on the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 6, the network device can obtain the fifth frequency offset according to the third ephemeris information and the geographic information, and send the SSB according to the fifth frequency offset, so that the SSB frequency offset can be compensated in advance, so that the frequency offset of the SSB reaching the terminal device is reduced, and the decoding success rate of the SSB is improved.
The frequency offset compensation method of the embodiment of the application can carry out frequency compensation on the downlink common channel and the downlink data channel, thereby completing the downlink access flow of the terminal equipment.
After the downlink access procedure is completed, the uplink access procedure can be further completed. For example, the uplink access procedure may be completed according to the following frequency offset compensation method of fig. 8 or fig. 9. The following is a detailed description with reference to fig. 8 to 9.
Fig. 8 is a schematic flow chart diagram of a frequency offset compensation method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 8, the frequency offset compensation method includes:
s801, the network device acquires a time advance.
For convenience of distinction, in this embodiment, the time advance obtained by the network device is indicated by the first time advance.
Wherein the time advance is related to a coverage area of the network device; the time advance is used for the terminal device to send signals to the network device.
In one possible design, the network device obtaining the first time advance may include: the network device obtains a first time advance according to the position of the network device and the position of the coverage area. In other words, the first time advance is determined from the network device based on the location of the network device and the location of the coverage area.
Illustratively, the first time advance may be obtained from a location of the network device, a location of the coverage area, and a propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave. For example, the first time advance may be obtained by obtaining a distance between the location of the network device and the location of the coverage area according to the location of the network device and the location of the coverage area, dividing the distance between the location of the network device and the location of the coverage area by a propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave, and dividing by 2.
In the embodiment of the present application, the coverage area of the network device may be the coverage area of one beam (beam) of the network device on the ground (hereinafter referred to as the coverage area of the beam). In this case, the network device may sequentially calculate a first time advance according to each location of the coverage area, and send the first time advance to the terminal device. In this case, if the network device cannot successfully decode the data from the terminal device, the network device may use the location of the next coverage area, and calculate a first time advance until the first time advance is obtained, where the network device can successfully decode the uplink signal. Therefore, the position of the coverage area which is closer to the actual position of the terminal equipment can be used for calculating the first time advance, and the accuracy of the first time advance is improved, so that the success rate of the uplink access flow can be improved.
Regarding the implementation of the location of the coverage area of the network device, reference may be made to a specific implementation manner of the location of the coverage area of the network device in the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 6, which is not described herein.

In one possible embodiment, the first time advance may be carried in one or more of the following: secondary system information, such as RMSI, or SIB2, etc., or downlink control signaling, such as radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) signaling.
Therefore, the terminal equipment can receive the time advance before sending the uplink signal and send the signal according to the time advance, so that the signal can arrive at the network equipment on time, and the receiving success rate is improved.
In this embodiment, before S802, the terminal device may further determine an index (index) of the SSB with the best signal quality, for example, an index of the SSB with the largest SINR or the largest received power, and further determine an RMSI corresponding to the SSB according to the index of the SSB, where the terminal device receives the first time advance from the RMSI.
S803, the terminal device sends a signal to the network device according to the first time advance.
For example, the network device may send a physical random access channel (physical random access channel, PRACH), a physical uplink shared channel (physical uplink share channel, PUSCH), or a physical uplink control channel (physical uplink control channel, PUCCH) to the network device a first time advance.
Or, the terminal device may send the PRACH to the network device in advance according to the first time advance, and then the terminal device acquires the second time advance from the network device, and sends the PUSCH or the PDCCH to the network device in advance according to the first time amount and the second time advance. It can be understood that there may be a deviation between the position of the coverage area and the actual position of the terminal device, so in the embodiment of the present application, the first advance is calculated based on the beam center position and the satellite position, the beam center position is different from the actual terminal position, and the satellite position also has a small change, so the network side will estimate a timing advance based on the PRACH sent by the terminal, and then issue to the UE for further fine adjustment. The second time advance is a time advance related to a channel state or a clock state of the terminal device, and if the channel state or the clock state of the terminal device is different, the second time advance may be different.
For the implementation of the second time advance, reference may be made to a specific implementation of the time advance of the terminal device in the ground network in the prior art, which is not described herein.
Based on the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 8, the network device obtains a first time advance and sends the first time advance to the terminal device, wherein the first time advance is related to a coverage area of the network device. In this way, the network device may determine the first time advance based on the coverage area of the network device, for example, the network device may use the location in the coverage area as the location of the terminal device, so that the use of GNSS information of the terminal device to obtain the frequency offset may be avoided, and the applicability is improved.

For the specific implementation of the third time advance, reference may be made to the specific implementation of the first time advance in fig. 8, which is not described herein.
S902, the terminal equipment sends signals, and the network equipment receives signals according to the third time advance.
In one possible design, the network device may receive the signal according to the time advance, and may include: the network device receives the signal from the terminal device with a third time advance.
For example, if the terminal device starts to send an uplink signal to the network device at time T2 and the transmission delay between the terminal device and the base station is TA2, the uplink signal arrives at the network device at time t2+ta2, that is, the network device receives an uplink signal from the terminal device at time t2+ta2, such as PRACH, PUSCH, or PDCCH.
Thus, the network device can receive the signal on time when the signal arrives at the network device, thereby improving the success rate of the receiving.
It can be understood that in this embodiment, the terminal device may perform fine adjustment of time according to the manner of adjusting the time advance by the ground network, which is not described herein.
Based on the frequency offset compensation method shown in fig. 9, the network device obtains a third time advance, and receives a signal from the terminal device according to the third time advance, where the third time advance is related to the coverage area of the network device.
