Background
In the coordinated joint transmission (coordinated joint transmission, CJT) of Downlink (DL), multiple network devices may simultaneously transmit the same data to the same terminal device on the same time-frequency resource, and multiple signals carrying the data need to be coherently superimposed when reaching the terminal device through respective spatial propagation paths, so as to improve the receiving performance of the terminal device. In order to ensure that the multipath signals are coherently superimposed when reaching the terminal device, a plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting with each other need to acquire downlink channel information.
To solve this problem, a plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting with each other may receive a reference signal transmitted by a terminal device on the same time-frequency resource to acquire uplink channel information and determine downlink channel information according to the uplink channel information. However, the uplink power control scheme of the existing terminal device cannot meet the receiving requirement of acquiring channel information by multiple network devices cooperatively transmitting. Therefore, how to optimize the uplink power control scheme of the terminal device to meet the receiving requirement of obtaining the channel information by the multiple network devices cooperatively transmitting is a problem to be solved at present.

Detailed Description
In order to facilitate understanding of the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, a brief description of related technologies of the present application is first provided. Briefly described as follows:
first, time-frequency domain resources of a New Radio (NR) system
Currently, in both Uplink (UL) and DL transmission schemes of NR systems, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM) techniques may be used. The UL transmission may refer to the terminal device sending an uplink signal to the network device. DL transmission may refer to a network device sending a downlink signal to a terminal device. The principle of the OFDM technology is as follows: dividing a plurality of sub-channels in a frequency domain, carrying out serial-parallel conversion on data to be transmitted to obtain a plurality of groups of data which are transmitted in parallel, and modulating each group of data onto a sub-carrier (subcarrier) of each sub-channel for transmission. Therefore, in the time domain, the data to be transmitted is transmitted through a plurality of subcarriers overlapped in space, wherein the subcarriers are orthogonal to each other, so that the subcarriers can be separated during receiving, and then each subcarrier is respectively demodulated, so that the data to be transmitted is obtained. That is, the minimum frequency domain resource in the NR system is 1 subcarrier, and the minimum time domain resource is 1 OFDM symbol.
1.1 General concepts
The time domain of the NR system is expressed in time units T c=1/(Δfmax·Nf). Where Δf max=480×103Hz,Nf =4096.
The constant k=t s/Tc =64. Where T s=1/(Δfref·Nf,ref),Δfref=15×103Hz,Nf,ref = 2048.
1.2 Parameter set (numerology)
The parameter sets supported by the NR system are shown in table 1. In table 1, the first column configures μ for subcarrier spacing (SCS), and the second column indicates subcarrier spacing.
TABLE 1
1.3 Time Domain resources
The uplink transmissions in an NR system may consist of multiple radio frames (frames). Wherein the duration of each radio frame is T f=(ΔfmaxNf/100) =10 ms. Each radio frame may consist of ten subframes of duration T sf=(ΔfmaxNf/1000) =1 ms. The 10 subframes within one radio frame may be sequentially arranged. Illustratively, the ordering of 10 subframes within a radio frame may be: subframe #0 to subframe #9. It will be appreciated that the numbering and sequencing in subframes # 0- #9 is merely exemplary, e.g., the beginning of the numbering may also be #1, and further that one radio frame includes subframes # 1- #10. For example, the order of 10 subframes may be in a descending order, and further one radio frame includes subframe #9 to subframe #0, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
In an NR system, one subframe may include several slots (slots). Wherein, for subcarrier spacing configuration μ, slots can be numbered in ascending order within one subframePermutation, and numbering/>, in ascending order within one radio frameAnd (5) arrangement. In one time slot there is/>Successive OFDM symbols are shown in tables 2 and 3. Time slot/>, in subframeIs started with OFDM symbol/>, in the same subframeIs aligned in time. For example, in the case where 14 OFDM symbols are included in one slot, the OFDM symbols may be chronologically ordered as: OFDM symbol #0 to OFDM symbol #13.
TABLE 2
TABLE 3 Table 3
1.4 Frequency domain resources
In the NR system, a Resource Element (RE), a Resource Block (RB), and a bandwidth part (BWP) may be divided according to the size of a frequency domain resource, which are described below.
1.4.1、RE
One subcarrier in the frequency domain and one OFDM symbol in the time domain may be defined as RE in the NR system. Where RE is the resource of the minimum granularity of the physical layer.
1.4.2、RB
In the frequency domain, the NR system can define 12 consecutive subcarriers as one RB regardless of subcarrier spacing. Wherein, in the physical layer, the RB may be referred to as a physical resource block (physical resource block, PRB).
1.4.3、BWP
The NR system may support that the terminal device operates only in a part of the system bandwidth, i.e. BWP. Or BWP may be a plurality of RBs within a frequency domain resource corresponding to one carrier supported by one cell. By way of example, a cell covered by a network device (e.g., next-generation radio access network (NG-generation radio access network, RAN) device in an NR system) may support 2 carrier frequencies (hereinafter, abbreviated as carrier #1 and carrier # 2), the cell allocates a bandwidth of 40MHz to carrier #1 and a bandwidth of 60MHz to carrier #2, respectively, BWP may be a 20MHz bandwidth among 40MHz bandwidths corresponding to carrier #1, the 20MHz bandwidth includes a plurality of RBs, and a terminal device may operate only on BWP.
In an NR system, after a terminal device accesses the network through an initial access procedure, the network may configure the terminal device with working BWP through higher layer signaling, and each terminal device may configure 1 to 4 BWP, but only one BWP is active at any time. In addition to radio resource management (radio resource management, RRM) measurements, the terminal device only transceives data on the active BWP.
It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, "carrier frequency", "carrier wave", "carrier frequency", and "frequency point" are the same. In other words, the "carrier frequency", "carrier wave", "carrier frequency", and "frequency point" may be expressed interchangeably, and are generally described herein, and are not described in detail herein.
It should also be understood that in embodiments of the present application, the meaning between "number" and "index" is the same. In other words, the "number" and the "index" may be expressed interchangeably, and are described in detail herein, and are not described in detail herein.
Second, reference signal
In the embodiment of the present application, the reference signal may include an uplink reference signal and a downlink reference signal. The uplink reference signal may be used to obtain uplink channel information, and the downlink reference signal may be used to obtain downlink channel information.
Optionally, the uplink reference signal may also be used to determine downlink channel information. For a communication system with reciprocity of uplink and downlink channels (for example, a time division duplex (time division duplex, TDD) communication system), since the uplink transmission and the downlink transmission use the same channel, the downlink channel information can be determined by the uplink channel information acquired by the uplink reference signal.
Optionally, the uplink reference signal may include: a Sounding REFERENCE SIGNAL (SRS), a positioning Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), an uplink demodulation reference signal (UL demodulation REFERENCE SIGNAL, UL-DMRS), or other uplink reference signals in the future, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
Alternatively, the downlink reference signal may include: the synchronization signal/physical layer broadcast channel block (synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block, SSB), channel state information reference signal (CHANNEL STATE information REFERENCE SIGNAL, CSI-RS), DL-DMRS, tracking reference signal (TRACKING REFERENCE SIGNAL, TRS), positioning Reference Signal (PRS), or other future downlink reference signals, etc., which are not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.
Third, reference signal configuration
In the embodiment of the application, the reference signal configuration may include the related parameters of the received or transmitted reference signal. Wherein the reference signal configuration may comprise resources for the terminal device to transmit or receive the reference signal. The resources may include time domain resources and/or frequency domain resources.
The beam and antenna ports (antenna ports) are described before reference signal resources are described.
In NR systems, the concept of beam is introduced. Wherein a beam is a communication resource. The beam may be a wide beam, or a narrow beam, or other type of beam. The technique of forming the beam may be a beam forming technique or other means of technique. The beamforming technique may be embodied as a digital beamforming technique, an analog beamforming technique, a hybrid digital/analog beamforming technique. Different beams may be considered different resources. The same information or different information may be transmitted through different beams. Alternatively, a plurality of beams having the same or similar communication characteristics may be regarded as one beam. A beam may be formed by one or more antenna ports for transmitting data channels, control channels, reference signals, etc. For example, a transmit beam may refer to a distribution of signal strengths formed in spatially different directions after a signal is transmitted through an antenna, and a receive beam may refer to a distribution of antenna arrays to strengthen or weaken reception of a wireless signal in spatially different directions. It is understood that one or more antenna ports forming a beam may also be considered as a set of antenna ports. In the current NR protocol, the beams may be represented by an antenna port quasi co-located (quasi colocation, QCL) relationship, specifically, the signals of two co-beams have a QCL relationship with respect to the spatial reception parameter (spatial Rx parameter), i.e., QCL-Type D: { spatial Rx parameter } in the protocol. The beam may be specifically represented in the protocol by an identification of various signals, such as a resource identification (identity, ID) of CSI-RS, a resource ID of SSB, a resource ID of TRS, a resource ID of PRS, or a resource ID of SRS.
It should also be understood that the antenna port described above is a logical concept that does not have a one-to-one correspondence with a physical antenna, and that an antenna port is a logical unit formed by one or more physical antennas that transmit a signal or signal stream. Wherein, the antenna ports can be distinguished by reference signals: in DL transmission, downlink channels are in one-to-one correspondence with downlink reference signals; in UL transmission, the uplink channels are in one-to-one correspondence with the uplink reference signals. If a reference signal is transmitted through multiple physical antennas, the multiple physical antennas correspond to the same antenna port; if two different reference signals are transmitted through the same physical root antenna, then the antenna corresponds to two independent antenna ports. For example, an antenna port corresponding to the CSI-RS may be referred to as a CSI-RS port, and an antenna port corresponding to the SRS may be referred to as an SRS port.
That is, the channel experienced by the signal transmitted via the antenna port can be estimated by the reference signal corresponding to the antenna port.
It will be appreciated that since the beams may be represented in the protocol specifically by the identity of the various signals, reference signal resources may be used in the NR system for representing the beams. The reference signal may be configured in the form of a resource, and one reference signal resource is a configuration unit. The reference signal configuration may comprise a plurality of configuration units, i.e. a plurality of reference signal resources. The reference signal configuration will be described below taking SRS configuration as an example.
SRS configuration: including one or more SRS resource sets (SRS resources), or one or more SRS resources. Wherein one SRS resource set may include one or more SRS resources. An SRS resource may include one or more of the following:
(1) Number of antenna ports: in the NR system, one SRS resource may configure 1,2, 4, or 8 antenna ports (hereinafter, SRS ports).
(2) Time domain position: an index, or starting position, of the occupied OFDM symbol, etc. may be included. The index of the OFDM symbol may indicate the number of OFDM symbols occupied by SRS resources, one SRS resource may configure 1, 2,4, 8, or 12 OFDM symbols, and the starting position may be given by field startPosition.
(3) Frequency domain location: an index of occupied RBs may be included. In the NR system, one SRS resource may occupy 4-272 RBs.
(4) Time domain type: in an NR system, SRS resources can be classified into periodic (periodic), semi-persistent, or aperiodic (aperiodic) types. For semi-persistent or periodic UL-SRS resources, among other things, SRS resources may include a period specified for a terminal device and a slot offset index (otherwise referred to as a slot offset).
Optionally, the SRS resource set may further include an SRS resource set identifier (e.g. SRS resource set ID), the SRS resource further includes an SRS resource identifier (e.g. SRS resource ID), a repetition factor of SRS transmission (field repetitionFactor), an offset of the SRS resource in the frequency domain, and a frequency modulation configuration of the SRS resource, and so on, and a detailed description may refer to technical specification (technology standard, TS) 38.211, which is not repeated herein.
It should be understood that, in the case of acquiring the downlink channel information by using SRS, the network device needs to obtain the channel information of each receiving antenna of the terminal device, and further, each SRS port corresponds to one receiving antenna of the terminal device. The antenna configuration of the terminal device may include two types, one is that the number of transmitting antennas is equal to the number of receiving antennas, that is, n transmitting antennas and n receiving antennas (abbreviated as nTnR), and the other is that the number of transmitting antennas is not equal to the number of receiving antennas (abbreviated as nTmR, n+.m).
Optionally, for the terminal device configured by nTnR, one SRS resource may configure n SRS ports, each SRS port corresponding to each receiving/transmitting antenna of the terminal device. In an exemplary embodiment, for a terminal device configured by 4T4R, one SRS resource configuration includes 4 SRS ports.
Optionally, for the terminal device configured by nTmR, m/n SRS resources are generally configured, where the m/n SRS resources may correspond to m receiving antennas of the terminal device, and each SRS resource may configure n SRS ports. For example, for a terminal device configured by 2T4R, 2 SRS resources may be configured, where the 2 SRS resources may correspond to 4 receiving antennas of the terminal device, and each SRS resource may be configured with 2 SRS ports.
It should be appreciated that the above reference signal configuration may be configured by the network. The network device may send the uplink reference signal configuration and the downlink reference signal configuration to the terminal device through high-layer signaling. The higher layer signaling may be, for example, radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) signaling, or medium access control (MEDIA ACCESS control, MAC) layer signaling, which is not particularly limited by the embodiments of the present application.
Fourth, uplink power control scheme
The terminal device may send the uplink reference signal on the configured active BWP. The following describes an existing uplink power control scheme by taking a terminal device to transmit SRS as an example.
The transmission power at which the terminal device transmits the SRS is defined in TS 38.213. The transmission power P SRS,b,f,c(i,qs, i) of the terminal device for transmitting the SRS at the transmission timing i, the serving cell c, the carrier frequency f, and the activation BWPb may be determined by the formula (1). The transmission opportunity is a time domain position of the SRS in the SRS resource, and i may be an index (e.g., a slot index or a symbol index) of the time domain position of the SRS in the radio frame. c may be the identity of the serving cell. f is the carrier frequency of serving cell c. b is an index to activate BWP. q s is an index of the SRS resource set or the SRS resource set ID. l is the index of the power control state.
Wherein, each parameter in the formula (1) is defined as follows:
p CMAX,f,c (i): the maximum transmission power allocated by the terminal device at transmission timing i, serving cell c, and carrier frequency f is indicated, and P CMAX,f,c (i) is related to the transmission capability of the terminal device and carrier frequency/serving cell.
P O_SRS,b,f,c(qs): the nominal power or power reference value is indicated as the target received power value expected by the network device. Wherein P O_sRS,b,f,c(qs) may be determined from the parameter set of the higher layer signaling configuration.
Mu: indicating a subcarrier spacing configuration.
M SRS,b,f,c (i): indicating the number of RBs occupied by SRS resources on transmit occasion i, serving cell c, carrier frequency f, and activation BWPb, M SRS,b,f,c (i) can be determined by the bandwidth of the current activation BWPb and μ.
Alpha SRS,b,f,c(qs): indicating the corresponding path loss compensation factor for SRS on serving cell c, carrier frequency f, and active BWPb. Where α SRS,b,f,c(qs) can be 0,1, for example {0,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9,1}. α SRS,b,f,c(qs) may be configured by RRC signaling. Illustratively, alpha SRS,b,f,c(qs) may be indicated by the parameter Alpha = ENUMERATED { Alpha0, alpha04, alpha05, alpha06, alpha07, alpha08, alpha09, alpha1}, alpha being the RRC variable name, ENUMERATED characterizing the quantized value of Alpha SRS,b,f,c(qs). It will be appreciated that the indication overhead of a SRS,b,f,c(qs) may be reduced by configuring the corresponding quantized value of a SRS,b,f,c(qs).
PL b,f,c(qd): the corresponding path loss compensation values in decibels (dB) for SRS on serving cell c, carrier frequency f, and active BWPb are shown. PL b,f,c(qd) may be a path loss measurement value corresponding to the index q d of the path loss reference signal (path loss REFERENCE SIGNAL, PL-RS), and PL b,f,c(qd) is a value greater than 0. The path loss reference signal may be a downlink reference signal in the above "reference signal", such as SSB or CSI-RS. The index q d of each path loss reference signal may be mapped to an index of one path loss reference signal resource. Illustratively, the Index q d of a path loss reference signal may be mapped to an Index of an SSB resource, which may be configured by the parameter SSB-Index; or the Index q d of one path loss reference signal may be mapped to an Index of one CSI-RS resource, and the Index of the CSI-RS resource may be configured by the parameter CSI-RS-Index.
The path loss measurement value Pathloss can be determined by the formula (2), and the formula (2) is as follows:
pathloss= referenceSignalPower-HIGHER LAYER FILTERED RSRP formula (2)
In formula (2), a parameter referenceSignalPower represents the transmission power of a downlink reference signal corresponding to a path loss reference signal configured by higher layer signaling. The parameter HIGHER LAYER FILTERED RSRP indicates the received power after high-layer filtering when the terminal device receives the downlink reference signal.
It can be appreciated that the index q d of the path loss reference signal may be in one-to-one correspondence with the path loss reference signal resource ID. That is, the index q d of the path loss reference signal may be determined according to the path loss reference signal resource ID, or the path loss reference signal resource ID may be determined according to the index q d of the path loss reference signal.
Alpha SRs,b,f,c(qs)·PLb,f,c(qd): representing PL b,f,c(qd) corresponding to the actual path loss compensation value.
H b,f,c (i, l): indicating the closed loop control parameters of the SRS on the serving cell c, carrier frequency f, activation BWPb. Wherein the closed loop control parameter is a dynamic power adjustment amount indicated by the network device through downlink control information (downlink control information, DCI). The power control of the SRS may follow a closed loop power control instruction corresponding to a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) SHARED CHANNEL, or may be determined by a separate closed loop power control instruction, and may be specifically referred to the related description in TS38.213, which is not described herein.
It should be understood that, in the uplink power control scheme, the path loss compensation value PL b,f,c(qd) is determined according to the measured path loss reference signal corresponding to one cell or one network device. That is, the path loss compensation value PL b,f,c(qd) corresponds to a path loss compensation value between the terminal device and one network device.
Fifth, downstream CJT
In the embodiment of the present application, the downlink cqt may refer to that multiple network devices (also may be referred to as sites) send the same data to the same terminal device on the same time-frequency resource at the same time, and multiple signals carrying the data need to be coherently superimposed when reaching the terminal device through respective spatial propagation paths, so as to improve the receiving performance of the terminal device. The coherent superposition may mean that multiple signals are superimposed in the same direction, so that the power of the signal received by the terminal device is increased, and further, the power gain is obtained, so that the receiving performance of the terminal device can be improved.
It will be appreciated that to ensure coherent addition of multiple signals, the phase and/or frequency offset between the multiple signals should be reduced. The network devices that cooperate with each other to obtain the corresponding downlink channel information are required to process the data to be transmitted, so as to reduce the phase difference and/or frequency offset between the multipath signals. For example, each network device may use a precoding technology, and process the data to be sent by means of a precoding matrix matched with the respective downlink channel information, so that the precoded data to be sent is adapted to the requirement of coherent superposition, and the influence of phase difference and/or frequency offset is eliminated, thereby ensuring that multiple signals arrive at the terminal device and are coherently superimposed. In addition, considering that the influence of the channel on the phase and frequency can change with time and frequency, the downlink channel information corresponding to each network device needs to be obtained by measuring the reference signals on the same time-frequency resource.
In order to ensure that a plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting with each other can acquire downlink channel information corresponding to each other, uplink reference signals sent by terminal devices can be utilized to acquire the downlink channel information by utilizing reciprocity of uplink and downlink channels. The method comprises the following steps: the terminal device sends an uplink reference signal (e.g. SRS) for downlink channel measurement, and multiple network devices cooperatively transmitting with each other may receive the uplink reference signal of the terminal device on the same time-frequency resource, thereby obtaining uplink channel information, and determine downlink channel information according to the uplink channel information.
However, as described in the "uplink power control scheme", the transmission power of the existing uplink reference signal is determined by the path loss reference signal issued by one cell or network device, which can only meet the receiving requirement of one network device for obtaining the channel information, but cannot meet the receiving requirement of multiple network devices for obtaining the channel information in cooperative transmission.
Further, the SRS transmission in the cqt scenario shown in fig. 1 is taken as an example. As shown in fig. 1, the network device #1 and the network device #2 are two cooperative network devices in the CJT scenario, the terminal device #1 is a target terminal device in the CJT scenario, that is, the network device #1 and the network device #2 send the same data to the terminal device #1 on the same time-frequency resource at the same time, the terminal device #2 is a terminal device that does not participate in the CJT, and the network device #1 provides services for the terminal device #2. The path loss compensation value PL b,f,c(qd between the terminal device #1 and the network device # 1) is the path loss compensation value #1, and the path loss compensation value PL b,f,c(qd between the terminal device #1 and the network device # 2) is the path loss compensation value #2. Assuming that the wireless propagation environment between the terminal device #1 and the network device #1 is good (the path loss is small), the wireless propagation environment between the terminal device #1 and the network device #2 is poor (the path loss is large), and thus the path loss compensation value #1 is smaller than the path loss compensation value #2. When the SRS transmitted by the terminal device #1 arrives at the network device #1 and the network device #2 through the air interface channel respectively, if the terminal device #1 determines the transmission power of the SRS according to the path loss compensation value #1, the transmission power of the SRS may meet the receiving requirement of the network device #1, but the transmission power of the SRS is smaller for the network device #2 (for example, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is too low), and does not meet the SNR receiving requirement of the network device # 2; if the terminal device #1 determines the SRS transmission power according to the path loss compensation value #2, the SRS transmission power may meet the receiving requirement of the network device #2, but the SRS transmission power is larger for the network device #1 and may drown out the signal transmitted by the terminal device #2, that is, the excessive SRS transmission power may increase the interference of the network device #1 to receive the signals of other terminal devices, and does not meet the interference receiving requirement of the network device # 1.
Based on this, the embodiment of the application provides an uplink power control method, which can optimize the uplink power control scheme of the terminal equipment to meet the receiving requirement of a plurality of network equipment for collaborative transmission for obtaining channel information.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application.
In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following description is made before describing the embodiments of the present application.
1. For easy understanding and description, first, the main parameters involved in the embodiments of the present application are respectively described as follows:
PL b,f,c(Qd1,Qd2,…,Qdn): the path loss compensation value may be represented. Wherein, Q di in Q d1,Qd2,…,Qdn is an index of the i-th path loss reference signal, i e {1,2, …, n }, n is the number of the path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals associated with the uplink signal, and n is an integer greater than 1. The path loss compensation value may be an actual path loss compensation value, and PL b,f,c(Qd1,Qd2,…,Qdn) may represent the actual path loss compensation value in the case where the path loss compensation value is the actual path loss compensation value.
Alpha: the total path loss compensation factor can be represented, and the value range of alpha is [0,1].
Alpha PL b,f,c(Qd1,Qd2,…,Qdn): in the case where the road loss compensation value is not the actual road loss compensation value, the actual road loss compensation value may be represented.
P: the target transmit power may be represented.
Road loss compensation scaling factor: the path loss compensation scaling factor comprises a first path loss compensation scaling factor or a second path loss compensation scaling factor. Wherein, the first path loss compensation proportionality coefficient corresponding to the ith path loss reference signal can be usedThe second path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the i-th path loss reference signal may be represented by α i.
2. In the embodiment of the present application, for convenience of description, when numbering is referred to, numbering may be continued from 1. For example, the index of the plurality of path loss reference signals is Q d1,Qd2,…,Qdn. Similarly, the first path loss proportionality coefficient corresponding to each path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals isAnd are not illustrated here. Of course, the specific implementation is not limited to this, and for example, the serial numbers may be numbered from 0. For example, the index of the plurality of path loss reference signals is Q d0,Qd1,…,Qdn-1. It should be understood that the foregoing is provided for the purpose of illustrating the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present application. /(I)

For example, the indication of the specific information may also be achieved by means of a pre-agreed (e.g., protocol-specified) arrangement sequence of the respective information, thereby reducing the indication overhead to some extent. And meanwhile, the universal part of each information can be identified and indicated uniformly, so that the indication cost caused by independently indicating the same information is reduced.

The uplink power control method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail with reference to fig. 6.
It should be understood that the names of signals between devices or the names of parameters in signals in the following embodiments of the present application are merely examples, and other names may be used in specific implementations, which are not limited in particular by the embodiments of the present application.
Taking interaction between the first network device and the terminal device shown in fig. 2 as an example, as shown in fig. 6, an uplink power control method provided by an embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:
S601, the first network equipment generates first indication information. The first indication information is used for indicating a path loss compensation proportionality coefficient corresponding to each path loss reference signal in a plurality of path loss reference signals associated with the uplink signal. The path loss compensation scaling factor is used for the terminal device to determine the path loss compensation value. The path loss compensation value is used for determining a target transmitting power of the terminal equipment for transmitting the uplink signal.
S602, the first network equipment sends the first indication information to the terminal equipment. Accordingly, the terminal device receives the first indication information from the first network device.
S603, the terminal equipment determines a path loss compensation value according to the first indication information.
S604, the terminal equipment determines the target sending power for sending the uplink signal according to the path loss compensation value.
The steps S601 to S604 are described in detail below.
For step S601:
Alternatively, the first network device may be any one of a plurality of network devices that cooperate for transmission. The plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitted may be a plurality of network devices in a cqt scenario. Interactions may occur between multiple network devices that cooperate in the transmission. That is, the first network device may acquire an interference condition in a cell corresponding to each of the plurality of network devices, where the interference condition in a cell may refer to, for example: the number of other signals within the cell that occupy the same time-frequency resource as the uplink signal. Furthermore, the first network device may comprehensively consider the cell interference situation and the SNR requirement of each network device for receiving the uplink signal, so as to determine a path loss compensation scaling factor capable of balancing the uplink signal receiving power corresponding to each network device and the overall interference level of the cell, thereby generating the first indication information.
For example, in the case that no other signal occupies the same time-frequency resource as the uplink signal in the cell, the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the path loss reference signal associated with the network device (or called the weak station) with larger path loss between the terminal devices may be increased, and/or the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the other path loss reference signal may be reduced, so as to improve the SNR of the weak station receiving the uplink signal.
It can be understood that, in the case that other signals occupying the same time-frequency resource as the uplink signal exist in the cell, the first network device may moderately promote, according to the number of the other signals, the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the path loss reference signal associated with the weak station. For example, the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the path loss reference signal associated with the weak station is 0.5, and the sum of the path loss compensation scaling factors corresponding to the other path loss reference signals is 0.5.
It will be appreciated that in a cqt scenario, each of a plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting may transmit a path loss reference signal to a terminal device. Accordingly, the terminal device may receive a plurality of path loss reference signals. Wherein, a plurality of path loss reference signals can be associated with the uplink signal. That is, a plurality of path loss reference signals associated with the uplink signal can be determined according to the uplink signal. It may be appreciated that the terminal device may determine, according to an index or a resource ID of an uplink signal, a plurality of path loss reference signals associated with the uplink signal.
Optionally, the plurality of path loss reference signals associated with the uplink signal include one or more path loss reference signals transmitted by each of a plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting. That is, each network device may send one or more path loss reference signals to the terminal device for path loss measurement.
Optionally, each network device of the plurality of network devices cooperatively transmitting sends a path loss reference signal to the terminal device, which may be used to instruct the terminal device to determine a path loss compensation value according to the first indication information, and determine the target transmission power of the uplink signal according to the path loss compensation value. That is, in the case that the terminal device receives a plurality of path loss reference signals, the target transmission power at which the terminal device transmits the uplink signal is determined according to the first indication information. Thus, the terminal device can determine the opportunity of using the corresponding power control scheme in the CJT scene.
Optionally, the path loss compensation scaling factor is a preset value, or a constant, or configured by a high-level parameter, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
Optionally, the uplink signal may include: an uplink reference signal, PUSCH, or a physical uplink control channel (physical uplink control channel, PUCCH), etc., which are not limited by the embodiment of the present application.
Alternatively, the path loss reference signal may be a downlink reference signal or an uplink reference signal for acquiring downlink channel information, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
It should be understood that the "reference signal" section of the preamble of the embodiment has described the uplink reference signal and the downlink reference signal in detail, and will not be described herein.
It should be understood that, in the case where the path loss reference signal is a downlink reference signal, the terminal device may determine the path loss measurement value corresponding to the path loss reference signal through the above formula (2). In the case that the path loss reference signal is an uplink reference signal for acquiring downlink channel information, the path loss measurement value corresponding to the path loss reference signal may be a difference between a receiving power of the network device for receiving the path loss reference signal and a transmitting power of the terminal device for transmitting the path loss reference signal.
Alternatively, the path loss compensation scaling factor may be used to indicate a reduced scale of the path loss measurement corresponding to one of the path loss reference signals. The path loss compensation proportionality coefficient corresponding to each path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals is smaller than 1, and the sum of the path loss compensation proportionality coefficients corresponding to each path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals is smaller than 1 or equal to 1.
It should be appreciated that the product of the path loss measurement value corresponding to one path loss reference signal and the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the path loss reference signal may represent the path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss reference signal.
For example, taking an example that the plurality of path loss reference signals include a path loss reference signal #1, a path loss reference signal #2, and a path loss reference signal #3, a path loss compensation scaling factor #1 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #1 is 0.1, a path loss compensation scaling factor #2 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #2 is 0.2, a path loss compensation scaling factor #3 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #3 is 0.4, the path loss compensation scaling factors #1 to #3 are all smaller than 1, and the sum of the path loss compensation scaling factors #1 to #3 is 0.7.
Further, the terminal device may determine, according to the formula (2), a measured value #1 (in dB) of the path loss corresponding to the path loss reference signal #1, a measured value #2 (in dB) of the path loss corresponding to the path loss reference signal #2, a measured value #3 (in dB) of the path loss corresponding to the path loss reference signal #3, and combine the above-mentioned path loss compensation scaling coefficients #1 to #3 to obtain: when the terminal device determines the path loss compensation value, the path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss reference signal #1 is reduced to 0.1 as the path loss measurement value #1, the path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss reference signal #2 is reduced to 0.2 as the path loss measurement value #2, and the path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss reference signal #3 is reduced to 0.4 as the path loss measurement value # 3.
Or alternatively, the path loss compensation scaling factor may be used to indicate a duty cycle of the path loss compensation corresponding to one of the plurality of path loss reference signals. The path loss compensation proportionality coefficient corresponding to each path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals is smaller than 1, and the sum of the path loss compensation proportionality coefficients corresponding to each path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals is equal to 1.
For example, the plurality of path loss reference signals include a path loss reference signal #4, a path loss reference signal #5, and a path loss reference signal #6, the path loss compensation scaling factor #4 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #4 is 0.3, the path loss compensation scaling factor #5 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #5 is 0.2, the path loss compensation scaling factor #6 corresponding to the path loss reference signal #6 is 0.5, the path loss compensation scaling factors #4 to #6 are all smaller than 1, and the sum of the path loss compensation scaling factors #4 to #6 is 1.
Optionally, the path loss compensation scaling factor may be used by the terminal device to determine the path loss compensation value: and the path loss compensation proportionality coefficient corresponding to part or all of the plurality of path loss reference signals is used for determining the path loss compensation value by the terminal equipment.
In one possible implementation, a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to each of a plurality of path loss reference signals is used by a terminal device to determine a path loss compensation value. That is, the terminal device may determine the path loss compensation value according to the path loss scaling factor corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals.
In another possible implementation manner, a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to a target path loss reference signal in the plurality of path loss reference signals is used for determining a path loss compensation value by the terminal device. The target path loss reference signal comprises one path loss reference signal in a plurality of path loss reference signals. Or the target path loss reference signal comprises k path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals. And k is more than 1 and less than n, n is the number of the path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals, and n and k are integers more than 1. That is, the terminal device may determine the path loss compensation value according to the path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to one or more of the plurality of path loss reference signals.
It can be appreciated that, in connection with the description of the relation of the SRS transmission power in the "uplink power control scheme" in the preamble of the specific embodiment, the SRS transmission power is determined according to the actual path loss compensation value α SRS,b,f,c(qs)·PLb,f,c(qd) corresponding to the path loss compensation value PL b,f,c(qd). Therefore, the first indication information may be described as a case one and a case two according to whether the path loss compensation scaling factor is an actual path loss compensation scaling factor.
Case one:
in case one, the path loss compensation scaling factor is not the actual path loss compensation scaling factor, and the actual path loss compensation value is determined based on the path loss compensation value and the total path loss compensation factor.
In one possible implementation, the total path loss compensation factor is a configured total path loss compensation factor. The configured total path loss compensation factor may include a total path loss compensation factor configured in the terminal device for a non-cqt scene, for example, a total path loss compensation factor α SRS,b,f,c(qs corresponding to SRS), a total path loss compensation factor corresponding to PUSCH, or a total path loss compensation factor corresponding to PUCCH, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
In another possible implementation, the total path loss compensation factor may be a re-indicated total path loss compensation factor. Wherein the total path loss compensation factor may be associated with the upstream signal.
Optionally, the first indication information is further used for indicating a total path loss compensation factor corresponding to the path loss compensation value. The total path loss compensation factor is used for determining an actual path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss compensation value. The actual path loss compensation value is used to determine the target transmit power. The actual path loss compensation value may be, for example, the product of the path loss compensation value and the total compensation factor.
That is, in the cqt scenario, the actual road loss compensation value may be determined in a manner indicated by two levels of road loss factors (including the total road loss compensation factor and the road loss compensation scaling factor). The total path loss compensation factor can multiplex the quantization mode of the existing path loss compensation factor.
Optionally, the first indication information includes one or more of:

Or a first path loss compensation factor, where the first path loss compensation factor includes a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals.
The identification information of each of the plurality of path loss reference signals may be used to determine an index corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals. The index of the path loss reference signal is described in the preamble of the detailed description, "uplink power control scheme", and will not be repeated here.
The path loss compensation scaling factor in the first path loss compensation factor is similar to the total path loss compensation factor, and can be configured in a quantized value mode. For example, as described in the preamble of the detailed description "uplink power control scheme", the path loss compensation scaling factor in the first path loss compensation factor may be characterized by ENUMERATED.
Optionally, the sum of the path loss compensation scaling coefficients corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals is less than or equal to 1. That is, the condition can limit the excessive or insufficient path loss compensation value, so that the target transmitting power determined by the terminal equipment can consider the SNR receiving requirement of the weak station and balance the interference condition of the whole cell.
Optionally, the path loss compensation scaling factor comprises a first path loss compensation scaling factor. The first path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the ith path loss reference signal is used for multiplying the first path loss measurement value corresponding to the ith path loss reference signal. The first path loss measurement value is a linear value. i epsilon {1, …, n }, n being the number of the path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals, n being an integer greater than 1.
Or alternatively, the path loss compensation scaling factor comprises a second path loss compensation scaling factor. The second path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to the ith path loss reference signal is used for multiplying the second path loss measurement value corresponding to the ith path loss reference signal. The second path loss measurement value is a logarithmic value. i epsilon {1, …, n }, n being the number of the path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals, n being an integer greater than 1.
That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the path loss compensation value may be a linear value or a logarithmic value. The path loss compensation scaling factor indicated by the first indication information may be a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to a linear value or a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to a logarithmic value.
Alternatively, the second path loss measurement may be a dB value or a dBm value.
Optionally, the first indication information includes a first path loss compensation factor, where the first path loss compensation factor includes a path loss compensation scaling factor corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals, and the path loss compensation value is determined according to the first path loss compensation factor. The actual path loss compensation value corresponding to the path loss compensation value is alpha-PL b,f,c(Qd1,Qd2,…,Qdn), alpha is the total path loss compensation factor corresponding to the path loss compensation value, PL b,f,c(Qd1,Qd2,…,Qdn) is the path loss compensation value, b is the identification of the active bandwidth part BWP corresponding to the uplink signal, c is the identification of the cell corresponding to the uplink signal, f is the carrier frequency of the cell corresponding to the uplink signal, Q di in Q d1,Qd2,…,Qdn is the index of the ith path loss reference signal, i epsilon {1,2, …, n }, n is the number of the path loss reference signals in the plurality of path loss reference signals, and n is an integer greater than 1.
Alternatively, the total path loss compensation factor α may be quantized in the "uplink power control scheme" in the preamble of the embodiment. That is, α ε {0,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9,1}.

It should be appreciated that/>The path loss compensation scaling factor may be less than 1, i.e., may be used to indicate a reduction in the path loss measurement corresponding to a path loss reference signal.And may be equal to 1, i.e., the path loss compensation scaling factor may be used to indicate the duty cycle of the path loss compensation corresponding to one of the plurality of path loss reference signals.

The maximum value of the path loss compensation value corresponding to each of the plurality of path loss reference signals can be determined by the formula (9) or the formula (11) in the second case.
It will be appreciated that in equation (9)It may also be the first loss compensated scaling factor in case one. Alpha i in equation (11) may also be the second path loss compensation scaling factor in case one.
