Description

一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法、通信设备及*** 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法、通信设备及***。
背景技术
频谱是无线通信的基础,根据最新发布的美国联邦通信委员会(Federal Communications Commission,FCC)国际频谱***,免许可频段(也称未授权(unlicensed)频谱)资源要大于许可频段(授权频谱)资源,因此,将长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)用户设备(User Equipment,UE)应用在免许可频段,例如,许可辅助接入长期演进(Licensed-Assisted Access Using Long Term Evolution,LAA-LTE)***,不仅可以有效利用免许可频段,还可以提供更为有效的无线接入、满足日益增长移动宽带服务需求。
LAA-LTE***使用免许可频段资源时,需要遵从各地对免许可频段使用制度的规范。
先听后说(Listen Before Talk,LBT)是***间的共存策略,LBT的特点为:每个通信设备在某个信道上发送信号之前,需要先检测当前信道是否空闲,若是,通信设备可发送信号,若否,通信设备当前无法发送信号,因此,基于LBT规则,LTE设备在免许可频段的数据传输是机会性的。为了确保数据传输的可靠性以及数据传输效率,基站可根据UE测量得到的信道状态信息(Channel State Information,CSI),判断基站与UE之间进行数据通信时,UE历经的信道状态,并根据CSI选择合适的调整编码方案(Modulation Coding Scheme,MCS),以匹配基站与UE之间的信道状态,因此,基站获取准确的CSI是保证基站和UE数据传输可靠性和数据传输效率的前提条件。
对于周期上报的CSI(包括信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator,CQI)、预编码矩阵指示(Precoding Matrix Indicator,PMI)以及秩指示(Rank Indicator,RI)),由于在免许可频段的数据传输是机会性的,以RI为例,可能会存在RI的参考资源所在的时刻与RI上报时刻相差较远的情况,在这种情况下,若在 RI上报时刻上报RI,上报的信道状态信息所反映的信道状态条件与UE经历的当前信道状态条件可能相差较大,进而影响基站和UE之间数据传输可靠性和数据传输效率。进一步地,在现有LTE***下,由于UE会用此RI作为后续宽带CQI/PMI以及窄带CQI/PMI计算的前提,因此还会导致一系列不准确的CSI信息上报,进而进一步影响基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性和数据传输效率。

具体实施方式
本发明实施例提供一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法、通信设备及***,用于确保数据传输的可靠性以及数据传输效率。
为了使本技术领域的人员更好地理解本发明方案,下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分的实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都应当属于本发明保护的范围。
以下分别进行详细说明。
本发明的说明书和权利要求书及所述附图中的术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”和“第四”等是用于区别不同对象,而不是用于描述特定顺序。此外,术语“包括”和“具有”以及它们任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含。例如包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、***、产品或设备没有限定于已列出的步骤或单元,而是可选地还包括没有列出的步骤或单元,或可选地还包括对于这些过程、方法、产品或设备固有的其它步骤或单元。
为了便于理解本发明实施例,下面先对本发明实施例的网络架构进行描述。请参阅图1,图1是本发明实施例公开的一种网络构架示意图。如图1所示,本发明实施例的网络构架可以包括UE和基站。该网络构架用于无线通信***,尤其用于许可频段辅助接入的LTE***(即LAA-LTE***)。LAA-LTE***是指将许可频段和免许可频段通过载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,CA)或者非CA的方式在一起使用的LTE***。例如,主流部署场景是将许可频段和免许可频段通过载波聚合CA联合使用的场景,即将许可频段或许可频段包括的载波或工作在许可频段上的小区作为主小区,将免许可频段或免许可频段包括的载波或工作在免许可频段上的小区作为辅小区,其中主小区和辅小区可以共站部署,也可以是非共站部署,两个小区之间有理想的回传路径。该网络构架不限于上述CA的场景,同样也可以应用于其他部署场景,比如包括两个小区(主小区和辅小区)之间没有理想回传路径的场景,或是回传延迟较大,导致两个小区之间无法快速的协调信息的场景等等。本发明实施例所涉及的通信设备即可以为UE和基站间中继节点或者为UE中的任一种,UE可以为手机、平板电脑、 笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、移动互联网设备(mobile internet device,MID)或者其他可支持网络交互的设备,本发明实施例的通信设备以UE为准进行详细说明。上述小区可以是基站对应的小区,小区可以属于宏基站,也可以属于小小区(small cell)对应的基站,这里的小小区可以包括:城市小区(Metro cell)、微小区(Micro cell)、微微小区(Pico cell)、毫微微小区(Femto cell)等,这些小小区具有覆盖范围小、发射功率低的特点,适用于提供高速率的数据传输服务。LTE***中的载波上可以同时有多个小区同频工作,在某些特殊场景下,也可以认为LTE***中的载波与小区的概念等同。例如在CA场景下,当为UE配置辅载波时,会同时携带辅载波的载波索引和工作在该辅载波的辅小区的小区标识(Cell Indentify,Cell ID),在这种情况下,可以认为载波与小区的概念等同,比如UE接入一个载波和接入一个小区是等同的。本发明中将以小区的概念来介绍。
本发明上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法的一个实施例。其中,一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法:确定第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻和所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源;当所述第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻;其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值。
请参见图2,图2为本发明实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法的第一实施例流程图。其中,如图2所示,本发明的一个实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法可以包括步骤S201~S202:
S201、UE确定第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻和所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。
本发明实施例中,UE确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻的具体实施方式为:在UE与基站建立通信连接后,基站向UE发送信道状态参数信息,其中,上述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息;UE接收基站发送的上述信道状态参数信息,并根据上述信道状 态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻。其中,基站可以周期性的向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后的预设时间后向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后直接向UE发送信道状态参数信息等等,本发明不做限定。如果UE是周期性上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上报周期和在上报周期内的偏移量,以便于UE可以确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻;如果UE是非周期上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上行调度准许(Uplink Scheduling Grant),UE在接收到上行调度准许之后,可以根据预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系,确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻,例如针对LTE***,上行调度准许发送时刻和上报时刻都用子帧来表示,那么预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系可以是4毫秒。其中,上述第一信道状态信息例如可以是秩指示RI、宽带信道质量指示CQI或宽带预编码矩阵指示PMI,也可以是窄带CQI或窄带PMI等等。本发明实施例第一信道状态信息以秩指示RI为例进行说明。
本发明实施例中,UE确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源的具体实施方式为:UE根据上述第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。具体的,目前第三代合作伙伴项目(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)协议对测量CSI所使用的参考资源进行了定义。定义中,参考资源包括时域资源和频域资源,时域资源一般用参考资源所在的时间单元对应的时域资源来表示,所述时间单元可以是无线帧、子帧、时隙、OFDM符号中的任一种,相应地,时间单元对应的时域资源可以是无线帧包括的时域资源、子帧包括的时域资源、时隙包括的时域资源、OFDM符号包括的时域资源;频域资源表示在上述时间单元内,包括的全部频率资源或部分频率资源。在本发明实施例中,主要讨论参考资源包括的时域资源,对于参考资源包括的频域资源,不做具体限定。对于参考资源包括的时域资源,一般可以用时域资源所在的时间单元的索引号来表示,例如,针对周期上报的CSI,若周期上报CSI的时刻为子帧索引为n的子帧,则对应该上报时刻的CSI参考资源所在子帧的子帧索引为n-m,其中,m满足以下条件:m大于或等于 4且使得子帧n-m为可用的下行子帧或特殊子帧的最小整数值。上述特殊子帧是时分双工(Time Division Duplexing,TDD)***中采用的一种子帧格式,在特殊子帧内包括下行导频时隙(Downlink Pilot Time Slot,DwPTS)、上行导频时隙(Uplink Pilot Time Slot,UpPTS)和保护间隔(Guard Period,GP)。因此,为了保证LAA-LTE***下UE测量CSI的准确性,可以将测量CSI的参考资源,定义为距离该CSI上报时刻4ms之前,且距离该CSI上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧,上述on-duration为服务该用户设备的基站抢占到该免许可频段资源且在该免许可频段上发送数据的时间段。因而,上述第一参考资源为距离上述第一上报时刻4ms之前,且距离第一上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,子帧索引可以用在一个无线帧内的编号来表示,例如一个无线帧包括10个子帧,那么在一个无线帧内的子帧索引可以用k表示,其中k为0至9中的任一整数,在这种情况下,如果上面提到的n-m小于0,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之前,如果n-m大于9,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之后;另一方面,子帧索引还可以用
Figure PCTCN2015090562-appb-000001
其中nf表示无线帧索引号,可以为0-1023中的任一整数,ns表示时隙索引号,可以为0-19中的任一整数,

表示对x向下取整,“/”表示除法运算符。其中,本发明实施例中的参考资源位于所述UE的服务小区在免许可频段上发送数据的时间段内;上述参考资源包括测量信道状态信息的参考信号,即测量信道状态信息的参考信号分布在参考资源内,上述参考信号至少包括以下任意一种:小区公共参考信号(Cell-specific Reference Signal,CRS)、信号状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal,CSI-RS)、解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal,DMRS)以及发现参考信号(Discovery Reference Signal,DRS),其中,CSI-RS还可以包括非零功率(None Zero Power,NZP)CSI-RS、CSI-IM(CSI-interference measurement)。
S202、当所述第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,所述UE将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻,其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间存 在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值。
其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值。或者,换句话说,当上述第一参考资源为无效的参考资源时,UE将上述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。上述无效的参考资源是指,如果UE根据上述无效的参考资源计算信道状态信息,则计算得到的信道状态信息无法反映UE接收服务小区的数据服务时经历的信道状态。无效的参考资源的一种表现形式,例如,根据现有协议定义的方式,如上述步骤S201中确定参考资源的具体步骤所述,在此不再赘述,如果确定的参考资源位于服务小区没有抢占到免许可频段的时间范围内,即对应服务小区在免许可频段的off-duration,那么可以认为确定的参考资源为无效的参考资源,因为,由于服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输之前,需要先通过侦听机制例如LBT确定免许可频段的可使用性,而且一旦服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输,在此数据传输的时间范围之内,除服务小区之外的其他小区只要侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,那么在所述服务小区进行数据的时间范围内,都会保持静默,即不发送任何数据。因此服务小区在免许可频段的on-duration与off-duration时,服务小区和UE之间经历的信道干扰水平不同,因此,认为如果第一参考资源所在的时刻位于服务小区的off-duration内,那么所述第一参考资源可以认为是无效的参考资源。也就是说,所述预设条件还可以包括,所述第一参考资源所在的时刻位于UE的服务小区在免许可频段上没有发送数据的时间段内,或者说所述服务小区在免许可频段没有抢占到信道使用机会的时间段内。此时,UE可以在第一上报时刻不上报任何信息;或者也可以在第一上报时刻上报特殊的信道状态信息,来反应上报的信道状态信息无效,例如上报的特殊信道状态信息可以是out of range(OOR)。同时,将上报第一时刻更新为第二上报时刻。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,或者是通过信号检测的方式,也可以是通过能量检测的方式,或者是二者的结合。通过信号检测的方式,是指检测到所述服务小区发送的信号,通过能量检测的方式,是指所述服务小区到达其他小区的数据能量超过某一门限值,例如 功率门限值。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,信道状态信息除了可以包括CQI、PMI、RI之外,还可以包括其他能够反映当服务小区和UE通信时的信息,在本发明实施例中不作限定。其中,上述时间阈值均可以用以下至少一项来表示:整数个子帧、整数个时隙、整数个无线帧、整数个OFDM符号。上述时间阈值与UE所在的信道状态平稳性有关,例如,目前3GPP协议中定义的RI的最长上报周期,基于最长上报周期的考虑,可以认为在上报周期范围内,上报的RI都是有效的,都可以支持CQI或PMI的计算。也就是说,当所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时间之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,可以认为基于所述第一参考资源计算得到的第一信道状态信息无法反映UE在所处信道上经历的信道状态。上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值可以是标准协议规范好的;或者,上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值也可以是服务UE的基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息中携带的,或者是预配置的。在此本发明不做限定,不同的上述第一信道状态信息,可以对应不同的时间阈值。
其中,上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源。具体的,请参加图2b,图2b为免许可频段数据传输示意图,上述不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源对应当服务UE的服务小区在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间抢占到免许可频段资源时。如果服务UE的服务小区在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间没有抢占到免许可频段资源时,那么显然,第二信道状态信息对应的参考资源与第一信道状态信息对应的参考资源相近,因此,第二上报时刻对应的参考资源与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围也有可能仍然符合上述预设条件。因此,为了确保基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源的情况下,且上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,将第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。也就是说,第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于所述时间阈值。
在一发明实施例中,上述第二上报时刻为第二信道状态信息对应的原配置 上报时刻。其中,第二信道状态信息对应的原配置的上报时刻为UE根据基站发送的信道状态参数信息确定的用于上报第二信道状态信息的上报时刻。上述第二信道状态信息与所述第一信道状态信息不同。第一信道状态信息与第二信道状态信息均可以包括RI、宽带CQI,宽带PMI,子带CQI、子带PMI中的任一项。例如RI和宽带CQI、宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,宽带CQI和宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,针对子带CQI,如果子带CQI对应的子带不同,那么也认为是不同的信道状态信息,针对子带PMI,如果子带PMI对应的子带不同,也认为是不同的信道状态信息。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第二信道状态信息为优先级次于所述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息。也就是说,若上述第一信道状态信息为RI时,由于第二信道状态信息为优先级次于上述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息,所以上述第二信道状态信息可以是宽带CQI、宽带PMI、窄带CQI、窄带PMI中的至少一个,本发明实施例第二信道状态信息以宽带CQI/PMI为例进行说明,进而上述第二上报时刻为宽带CQI/PMI对应的原配置上报时刻,其中,第二上报时刻为UE根据基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定的。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第一参考资源所在的时刻与上述第二上报时刻对应的第二参考资源所在的时刻不同。也就是说,RI对应的原配置参考资源所在的时刻与宽带CQI/PMI对应的原配置参考资源所在的时刻不同。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,上述参考资源所在的时刻可以用参考资源所在的时间单元来表示;或者,可以用时间单元的索引号来表示,例如当时间单元用子帧来表示时,时间单元的索引号可以是子帧索引号。相应地,若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的子帧来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的子帧不是同一个。若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的OFDM符号来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的OFDM符号不是同一个。
可以看出,本发明实施例中,在第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。由于第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,且第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间 范围小于所述时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于时间阈值,这样使得UE在更新后的上报时刻上报的信道状态接近UE历经的信道状态,从而确保了基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,故而确保基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性以及数据传输效率。
可选的,在UE确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻之后,上述上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法还包括:在所述第一上报时刻,上报所述第一信道状态信息。也就是说,在UE确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻之后,不管后续UE是否将第一上报时刻进行更新,UE都在第一上报时刻上报第一信道状态信息。
可选的,在UE将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻之后,上述上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法还包括:UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息和所述第二信道状态信息;或者,UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息。
可选的,在UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息之后,上述上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法还包括:在第三上报时刻上报所述第二信道状态信息;所述第三上报时刻为所述第二上报时刻之后的相邻所述第二上报时刻的信道状态信息上报时刻;或者,所述第三上报时刻为第三信道状态信息的上报时刻,所述第三信道状态信息为所述第二信道状态信息后一个相邻周期的类型相同的信道状态信息。
请参见图3,图3为本发明实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法的第二实施例流程图。其中,如图3所示,本发明的一个实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法可以包括步骤S301~S305:
S301、UE确定第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻和所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。
本发明实施例中,UE确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻的具体实施方式为:在UE与基站建立通信连接后,基站向UE发送信道状态参数信息,其中,上述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻 的参数信息;UE接收基站发送的上述信道状态参数信息,并根据上述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻。其中,基站可以周期性的向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后的预设时间后向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后直接向UE发送信道状态参数信息等等,本发明不做限定。如果UE是周期性上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上报周期和在上报周期内的偏移量,以便于UE可以确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻;如果UE是非周期上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上行调度准许,UE在接收到上行调度准许之后,可以根据预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系,确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻,例如针对LTE***,上行调度准许发送时刻和上报时刻都用子帧来表示,那么预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系可以是4毫秒。其中,上述第一信道状态信息例如可以是秩指示RI、宽带信道质量指示CQI或宽带预编码矩阵指示PMI,也可以是窄带CQI或窄带PMI等等。本发明实施例第一信道状态信息以秩指示RI为例进行说明。
本发明实施例中,UE确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源的具体实施方式为:UE根据上述第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。具体的,目前第三代合作伙伴项目3GPP协议对测量CSI所使用的参考资源进行了定义。定义中,参考资源包括时域资源和频域资源,时域资源一般用参考资源所在的时间单元对应的时域资源来表示,所述时间单元可以是无线帧、子帧、时隙、OFDM符号中的任一种,相应地,时间单元对应的时域资源可以是无线帧包括的时域资源、子帧包括的时域资源、时隙包括的时域资源、OFDM符号包括的时域资源;频域资源表示在上述时间单元内,包括的全部频率资源或部分频率资源。在本发明实施例中,主要讨论参考资源包括的时域资源,对于参考资源包括的频域资源,不做具体限定。对于参考资源包括的时域资源,一般可以用时域资源所在的时间单元的索引号来表示,例如,针对周期上报的CSI,若周期上报CSI的时刻为子帧索引为n的子帧,则对应该上报时刻的CSI参考资源所在子帧的子帧索引为n-m, 其中,m满足以下条件:m大于或等于4且使得子帧n-m为可用的下行子帧或特殊子帧的最小整数值。上述特殊子帧是TDD***中采用的一种子帧格式,在特殊子帧内包括DwPTS、UpPTS和GP。因此,为了保证LAA-LTE***下UE测量CSI的准确性,可以将测量CSI的参考资源,定义为距离该CSI上报时刻4ms之前,且距离该CSI上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧,上述on-duration为服务该用户设备的基站抢占到该免许可频段资源且在该免许可频段上发送数据的时间段。因而,上述第一参考资源为距离上述第一上报时刻4ms之前,且距离第一上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,子帧索引可以用在一个无线帧内的编号来表示,例如一个无线帧包括10个子帧,那么在一个无线帧内的子帧索引可以用k表示,其中k为0至9中的任一整数,在这种情况下,如果上面提到的n-m小于0,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之前,如果n-m大于9,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之后;另一方面,子帧索引还可以用

表示对x向下取整,“/”表示除法运算符。其中,本发明实施例中的参考资源位于所述UE的服务小区在免许可频段上发送数据的时间段内;上述参考资源包括测量信道状态信息的参考信号,即测量信道状态信息的参考信号分布在参考资源内,上述参考信号至少包括以下任意一种:CRS、CSI-RS、DMRS以及DRS,其中,CSI-RS还可以包括,NZP-CSI-RS、CSI-IM。
S302、所述UE在所述第一上报时刻,上报所述第一信道状态信息。
本发明实施例中,由于UE事先不能确定第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间是否存在新的参考资源,若下述步骤S303将第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻之后,第二上报时刻对应的参考资源仍然无法尽可能地接近UE历经的信道状态,也就是说,第二参考资源所在时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围也有可能符合上述预设条件,也就是说,第二上报时刻可能不是比较合适的上报时刻,此时,为了避免信道状态信息缺失的情况,UE在所述第一上报时刻,上报所述第一信道状态信息,以便于基站可利用上述第一上报时刻上报的信道状态信息确定UE经历的信道状态,进而避免信道状态信息缺失的情况。
S303、若所述第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件,UE将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻,其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值。
其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值。或者,换句话说,当上述第一参考资源为无效的参考资源时,UE将上述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。上述无效的参考资源是指,如果UE根据上述无效的参考资源计算信道状态信息,则计算得到的信道状态信息无法反映UE接收服务小区的数据服务时经历的信道状态。无效的参考资源的一种表现形式,例如,根据现有协议定义的方式,如上述步骤S301中确定参考资源的具体步骤所述,在此不再赘述,如果确定的参考资源位于服务小区没有抢占到免许可频段的时间范围内,即对应服务小区在免许可频段的off-duration,那么可以认为确定的参考资源为无效的参考资源,因为,由于服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输之前,需要先通过侦听机制例如LBT确定免许可频段的可使用性,而且一旦服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输,在此数据传输的时间范围之内,除服务小区之外的其他小区只要侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,那么在所述服务小区进行数据的时间范围内,都会保持静默,即不发送任何数据。因此服务小区在免许可频段的on-duration与off-duration时,服务小区和UE之间经历的信道干扰水平不同,因此,认为如果第一参考资源所在的时刻位于服务小区的off-duration内,那么所述第一参考资源可以认为是无效的参考资源。也就是说,所述预设条件还可以包括,所述第一参考资源所在的时刻位于UE的服务小区在免许可频段上没有发送数据的时间段内,或者说所述服务小区在免许可频段没有抢占到信道使用机会的时间段内。此时,UE可以在第一上报时刻不上报任何信息;或者也可以在第一上报时刻上报特殊的信道状态信息,来反应上报的信道状态信息无效,例如上报的特殊信道状态信息可以是out of range(OOR)。同时,将上报第一时刻更新为第二上报时刻。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,或者是通过信号检测的方式,也可以是通过能量检测的方式,或者是二者的结合。通过信号检测的方式,是指检测到所述服务小区发送的信号,通过能量检测的方式,是指所述服务小区到达其他小区的数据能量超过某一门限值,例如功率门限值。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,信道状态信息除了可以包括CQI、PMI、RI之外,还可以包括其他能够反映当服务小区和UE通信时的信息,在本发明实施例中不作限定。其中,上述时间阈值均可以用以下至少一项来表示:整数个子帧、整数个时隙、整数个无线帧、整数个OFDM符号。上述时间阈值与UE所在的信道状态平稳性有关,例如,目前3GPP协议中定义的RI的最长上报周期,基于最长上报周期的考虑,可以认为在上报周期范围内,上报的RI都是有效的,都可以支持CQI或PMI的计算。也就是说,当所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时间之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,可以认为基于所述第一参考资源计算得到的第一信道状态信息无法反映UE在所处信道上经历的信道状态。上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值可以是标准协议规范好的;或者,上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值也可以是服务UE的基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息中携带的,或者是预配置的。在此本发明不做限定,不同的上述第一信道状态信息,可以对应不同的时间阈值。
其中,上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源。具体的,请参加图2b,图2b为免许可频段数据传输示意图,上述不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源对应当服务UE的服务小区在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间抢占到免许可频段资源时。如果服务UE的服务小区在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间没有抢占到免许可频段资源时,那么显然,第二信道状态信息对应的参考资源与第一信道状态信息对应的参考资源相近,因此,第二上报时刻对应的参考资源与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围也有可能仍然符合上述预设条件。因此,为了确保基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源的情况下,且上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,将第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。也就是说, 第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于所述时间阈值。
在一发明实施例中,上述第二上报时刻为第二信道状态信息对应的原配置上报时刻。其中,第二信道状态信息对应的原配置的上报时刻为UE根据基站发送的信道状态参数信息确定的用于上报第二信道状态信息的上报时刻。上述第二信道状态信息与所述第一信道状态信息不同。第一信道状态信息与第二信道状态信息均可以包括RI、宽带CQI,宽带PMI,子带CQI、子带PMI中的任一项。例如RI和宽带CQI、宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,宽带CQI和宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,针对子带CQI,如果子带CQI对应的子带不同,那么也认为是不同的信道状态信息,针对子带PMI,如果子带PMI对应的子带不同,也认为是不同的信道状态信息。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第二信道状态信息为优先级次于所述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息。也就是说,若上述第一信道状态信息为RI时,由于第二信道状态信息为优先级次于上述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息,所以上述第二信道状态信息可以是宽带CQI、宽带PMI、窄带CQI、窄带PMI中的至少一个,本发明实施例第二信道状态信息以宽带CQI/PMI为例进行说明,进而上述第二上报时刻为宽带CQI/PMI对应的原配置上报时刻,其中,第二上报时刻为UE根据基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定的。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第一参考资源所在的时刻与上述第二上报时刻对应的第二参考资源所在的时刻不同。也就是说,RI对应的原配置参考资源所在的时刻与宽带CQI/PMI对应的原配置参考资源所在的时刻不同。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,上述参考资源所在的时刻可以用参考资源所在的时间单元来表示;或者,可以用时间单元的索引号来表示,例如当时间单元用子帧来表示时,时间单元的索引号可以是子帧索引号。相应地,若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的子帧来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的子帧不是同一个。若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的OFDM符号来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的OFDM符号不是同一个。
S304、UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息。
本发明实施例中,UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息。也就是说,UE在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻只上报RI,不上报宽带CQI/PMI。
在另一个发明实施例中,UE在所述第二上报时刻上报上述第一信道状态信息的同时还可以上报上述第二信道状态信息。也就是说,UE在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻同时上报RI和宽带CQI/PMI。
S305、UE在第三上报时刻上报所述第二信道状态信息。
在一发明实施例中,上述第三上报时刻可以为上述第二上报时刻之后的相邻上报第二上报时刻的信道状态信息的上报时刻。也就是说,周期上报的信道状态信息对应的上报时刻依次后延,例如,UE支持RI上报,宽带CQI/PMI和子带CQI/PMI上报,且UE需要上报2个子带的信道状态信息,那么UE上报的先后顺序分别为:在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报RI,在第一子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报宽带CQI/PMI,在第二子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第一子带CQI/PMI依次类推。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第三上报时刻为第三信道状态信息的原配置上报时刻,上述第三信道状态信息为所述第二信道状态信息后一个相邻周期类型相同的信道状态信息。比如,第二信道状态信息为宽带CQI,第二上报时刻为上报宽带CQI的上报时刻,则第三上报时刻为在第二上报时刻之后,下一个上报宽带CQI的上报时刻。也就是说,UE在第二上报时刻丢弃第二信道状态信息,且不利用后续的上报时刻上报第二状态信息,而是在原配置的下一个第二信道状态信息上报时刻上报第二信道状态信息。例如,UE支持RI上报,宽带CQI/PMI和子带CQI/PMI上报,且UE需要上报2个子带的信道状态信息,第一信道状态信息为RI,第二信道状态信息为宽带CQI/PMI,那么UE上报的先后顺序分别是:在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报RI、在第一子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第一子带CQI/PMI、在第二子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第二子带CQI/PMI、在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报宽带CQI/PMI。
可以看出,本发明实施例中,在第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。由于第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同 于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,且第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于时间阈值,这样使得UE在更新后的上报时刻上报的信道状态接近UE历经的信道状态,从而确保了基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,故而确保基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性以及数据传输效率。
请参见图4,图4为本发明实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法的第三实施例流程图。其中,如图4所示,本发明的一个实施例提供的一种上报信道状态信息时刻的更新方法可以包括步骤S401~S410:
S401、基站向UE发送信道状态参数信息,所述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息。
本发明实施例中,基站可以周期性的向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后的预设时间后向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后直接向UE发送信道状态参数信息等等,本发明不做限定。
S402、所述UE接收所述基站发送信道状态参数信息。
S403、所述UE根据所述信道状态参数信息确定第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻和所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。
本发明实施例中,UE确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻的具体实施方式为:在UE与基站建立通信连接后,基站向UE发送信道状态参数信息,其中,上述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息;UE接收基站发送的上述信道状态参数信息,并根据上述信道状态参数信息包括用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定第一信道状态信息对应的第一上报时刻。其中,基站可以周期性的向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后的预设时间后向UE发送信道状态参数信息;或者,基站也可以在UE与基站建立通信连接后直接向UE发送信道状态参数信息等等,本发明不做限定。如果UE是周期性上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上报周期和在上报周期 内的偏移量,以便于UE可以确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻;如果UE是非周期上报信道状态信息,上述信道状态参数信息可以包括上行调度准许,UE在接收到上行调度准许之后,可以根据预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系,确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻,例如针对LTE***,上行调度准许发送时刻和上报时刻都用子帧来表示,那么预定义的上行调度准许发送时刻与上报时刻之间的关系可以是4毫秒。其中,上述第一信道状态信息例如可以是秩指示RI、宽带信道质量指示CQI或宽带预编码矩阵指示PMI,也可以是窄带CQI或窄带PMI等等。本发明实施例第一信道状态信息以秩指示RI为例进行说明。
本发明实施例中,UE确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源的具体实施方式为:UE根据上述第一信道状态信息的第一上报时刻确定所述第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源。具体的,目前第三代合作伙伴项目3GPP协议对测量CSI所使用的参考资源进行了定义。定义中,参考资源包括时域资源和频域资源,时域资源一般用参考资源所在的时间单元对应的时域资源来表示,所述时间单元可以是无线帧、子帧、时隙、OFDM符号中的任一种,相应地,时间单元对应的时域资源可以是无线帧包括的时域资源、子帧包括的时域资源、时隙包括的时域资源、OFDM符号包括的时域资源;频域资源表示在上述时间单元内,包括的全部频率资源或部分频率资源。在本发明实施例中,主要讨论参考资源包括的时域资源,对于参考资源包括的频域资源,不做具体限定。对于参考资源包括的时域资源,一般可以用时域资源所在的时间单元的索引号来表示,例如,针对周期上报的CSI,若周期上报CSI的时刻为子帧索引为n的子帧,则对应该上报时刻的CSI参考资源所在子帧的子帧索引为n-m,其中,m满足以下条件:m大于或等于4且使得子帧n-m为可用的下行子帧或特殊子帧的最小整数值。上述特殊子帧是TDD***中采用的一种子帧格式,在特殊子帧内包括DwPTS、UpPTS和GP。因此,为了保证LAA-LTE***下UE测量CSI的准确性,可以将测量CSI的参考资源,定义为距离该CSI上报时刻4ms之前,且距离该CSI上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧,上述on-duration为服务该用户设备的基站抢占到该免许可频段资源且在该免许可频段上发送数据的时间段。因而,上述第一参考资源为距离上述第一上报 时刻4ms之前,且距离第一上报时刻最近并位于on-duration之内的子帧。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,子帧索引可以用在一个无线帧内的编号来表示,例如一个无线帧包括10个子帧,那么在一个无线帧内的子帧索引可以用k表示,其中k为0至9中的任一整数,在这种情况下,如果上面提到的n-m小于0,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之前,如果n-m大于9,则表示n-m对应的子帧在子帧n所在的无线帧之后;另一方面,子帧索引还可以用
Figure PCTCN2015090562-appb-000005
其中nf表示无线帧索引号,可以为0-1023中的任一整数,ns表示时隙索引号,可以为0-19中的任一整数,
Figure PCTCN2015090562-appb-000006
表示对x向下取整,“/”表示除法运算符。其中,本发明实施例中的参考资源位于所述UE的服务小区在免许可频段上发送数据的时间段内;上述参考资源包括测量信道状态信息的参考信号,即测量信道状态信息的参考信号分布在参考资源内,上述参考信号至少包括以下任意一种:CRS、CSI-RS、DMRS以及DRS,其中,CSI-RS还可以包括,NZP-CSI-RS、CSI-IM。
S404、所述UE在所述第一上报时刻,上报所述第一信道状态信息。本发明实施例中,由于UE事先不能确定第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间是否存在新的参考资源,若下述步骤S406将第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻之后,第二上报时刻对应的参考资源仍满足预设条件,也就是说,第二参考资源所在时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围也有可能符合上述预设条件,也就是说,第二上报时刻可能不是比较合适的上报时刻,此时,为了避免信道状态信息缺失的情况,UE在所述第一上报时刻,上报所述第一信道状态信息,以便于基站可利用上述第一上报时刻上报的信道状态信息确定UE经历的信道状态,进而避免信道状态信息缺失的情况。
S405、所述基站在第一上报时刻接收所述UE上报的所述第一信道状态信息。
S406、若所述第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件,所述UE将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻,其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,所述第一上报时刻与所述第二上报时刻 之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值。
其中,所述预设条件为所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时刻之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值。或者,换句话说,当上述第一参考资源为无效的参考资源时,UE将上述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。上述无效的参考资源是指,如果UE根据上述无效的参考资源计算信道状态信息,则计算得到的信道状态信息无法反映UE接收服务小区的数据服务时经历的信道状态。无效的参考资源的一种表现形式,例如,根据现有协议定义的方式,如上述步骤S401中确定参考资源的具体步骤所述,在此不再赘述,如果确定的参考资源位于服务小区没有抢占到免许可频段的时间范围内,即对应服务小区在免许可频段的off-duration,那么可以认为确定的参考资源为无效的参考资源,因为,由于服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输之前,需要先通过侦听机制例如LBT确定免许可频段的可使用性,而且一旦服务小区在免许可频段进行数据传输,在此数据传输的时间范围之内,除服务小区之外的其他小区只要侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,那么在所述服务小区进行数据的时间范围内,都会保持静默,即不发送任何数据。因此服务小区在免许可频段的on-duration与off-duration时,服务小区和UE之间经历的信道干扰水平不同,因此,认为如果第一参考资源所在的时刻位于服务小区的off-duration内,那么所述第一参考资源可以认为是无效的参考资源。也就是说,所述预设条件还可以包括,所述第一参考资源所在的时刻位于UE的服务小区在免许可频段上没有发送数据的时间段内,或者说所述服务小区在免许可频段没有抢占到信道使用机会的时间段内。此时,UE可以在第一上报时刻不上报任何信息;或者也可以在第一上报时刻上报特殊的信道状态信息,来反应上报的信道状态信息无效,例如上报的特殊信道状态信息可以是out of range(OOR)。同时,将上报第一时刻更新为第二上报时刻。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,侦听到所述服务小区在进行数据传输,或者是通过信号检测的方式,也可以是通过能量检测的方式,或者是二者的结合。通过信号检测的方式,是指检测到所述服务小区发送的信号,通过能量检测的方式,是指所述服务小区到达其他小区的数据能量超过某一门限值,例如功率门限值。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,信道状态信息除了可以包括CQI、PMI、RI之外,还可以包括其他能够反映当服务小区和UE通信时的信息,在本发明实施例中不作限定。其中,上述时间阈值均可以用以下至少一项来表示:整数个子帧、整数个时隙、整数个无线帧、整数个OFDM符号。上述时间阈值与UE所在的信道状态平稳性有关,例如,目前3GPP协议中定义的RI的最长上报周期,基于最长上报周期的考虑,可以认为在上报周期范围内,上报的RI都是有效的,都可以支持CQI或PMI的计算。也就是说,当所述第一参考资源所在的时刻与所述第一上报时间之间的时间范围大于或等于时间阈值,可以认为基于所述第一参考资源计算得到的第一信道状态信息无法反映UE在所处信道上经历的信道状态。上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值可以是标准协议规范好的;或者,上述第一时间阈值和上述第二时间阈值也可以是服务UE的基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息中携带的,或者是预配置的。在此本发明不做限定,不同的上述第一信道状态信息,可以对应不同的时间阈值。
其中,上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源。具体的,请参加图2b,图2b为免许可频段数据传输示意图,上述不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源为服务UE的服务小区在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间抢占到免许可频段资源。如果第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,那么显然,第二信道状态信息对应的参考资源与第一信道状态信息对应的参考资源相近,因此,第二上报时刻对应的参考资源与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围也有可能仍然符合上述预设条件。因此,为了确保基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,在第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源的情况下,且上述第一上报时刻与上述第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,将第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。也就是说,第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于所述时间阈值。
在一发明实施例中,上述第二上报时刻为第二信道状态信息对应的原配置上报时刻。其中,第二信道状态信息对应的原配置的上报时刻为UE根据基站发送的信道状态参数信息确定的用于上报第二信道状态信息的上报时刻。上述 第二信道状态信息与所述第一信道状态信息不同。第一信道状态信息与第二信道状态信息均可以包括RI、宽带CQI,宽带PMI,子带CQI、子带PMI中的任一项。例如RI和宽带CQI、宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,宽带CQI和宽带PMI表示不同的信道状态信息,针对子带CQI,如果子带CQI对应的子带不同,那么也认为是不同的信道状态信息,针对子带PMI,如果子带PMI对应的子带不同,也认为是不同的信道状态信息。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第二信道状态信息为优先级次于所述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息。也就是说,若上述第一信道状态信息为RI时,由于第二信道状态信息为优先级次于上述第一信道状态信息的信道状态信息,所以上述第二信道状态信息可以是宽带CQI、宽带PMI、窄带CQI、窄带PMI中的至少一个,本发明实施例第二信道状态信息以宽带CQI/PMI为例进行说明,进而上述第二上报时刻为宽带CQI/PMI对应的原配置上报时刻,其中,第二上报时刻为UE根据基站向UE发送的信道状态参数信息用于确定上报信道状态信息的上报时刻的参数信息确定的。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第一参考资源所在的时刻与上述第二上报时刻对应的第二参考资源所在的时刻不同。也就是说,RI对应的原确定参考资源所在的时刻与宽带CQI/PMI对应的原确定参考资源所在的时刻不同。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,上述参考资源所在的时刻可以用参考资源所在的时间单元来表示;或者,可以用时间单元的索引号来表示,例如当时间单元用子帧来表示时,时间单元的索引号可以是子帧索引号。相应地,若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的子帧来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的子帧不是同一个。若上述参考资源所在的时刻用参考资源所在的OFDM符号来表示,则上述所在的时刻不同是指所在的OFDM符号不是同一个。
S407、所述UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息。
本发明实施例中,UE在所述第二上报时刻上报所述第一信道状态信息。也就是说,UE在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻只上报RI,不上报宽带CQI/PMI。
在另一个发明实施例中,UE在所述第二上报时刻上报上述第一信道状态信息的同时还可以上报上述第二信道状态信息。也就是说,UE在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻同时上报RI和宽带CQI/PMI。
S408、所述基站在所述第二上报时刻接收所述UE上报的所述第一信道状态信息。
S409、所述UE在第三上报时刻上报所述第二信道状态信息。
在一发明实施例中,上述第三上报时刻可以为上述第二上报时刻之后的相邻上报第二上报时刻的信道状态信息的上报时刻。也就是说,周期上报的信道状态信息对应的上报时刻依次后延,例如,UE支持RI上报,宽带CQI/PMI和子带CQI/PMI上报,且UE需要上报2个子带的信道状态信息,那么UE上报的先后顺序分别为:在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报RI,在第一子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报宽带CQI/PMI,在第二子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第一子带CQI/PMI依次类推。
在另一发明实施例中,上述第三上报时刻为第三信道状态信息的原配置上报时刻,上述第三信道状态信息为所述第二信道状态信息后一个相邻周期类型相同的信道状态信息。比如,第二信道状态信息为宽带CQI,第二上报时刻为上报宽带CQI的上报时刻,则第三上报时刻为在第二上报时刻之后,下一个上报宽带CQI的上报时刻。也就是说,UE在第二上报时刻丢弃第二信道状态信息,且不利用后续的上报时刻上报第二状态信息,而是在原配置的下一个第二信道状态信息上报时刻上报第二信道状态信息。例如,UE支持RI上报,宽带CQI/PMI和子带CQI/PMI上报,且UE需要上报2个子带的信道状态信息,第一信道状态信息为RI,第二信道状态信息为宽带CQI/PMI,那么UE上报的先后顺序分别是:在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报RI、在第一子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第一子带CQI/PMI、在第二子带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报第二子带CQI/PMI、在宽带CQI/PMI的上报时刻上报宽带CQI/PMI。
S410、所述基站在所述第三上报时刻接收所述UE上报的所述第二信道状态信息。
可以看出,本发明实施例中,在第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。由于第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,且第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时 刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于时间阈值,这样使得UE在更新后的上报时刻上报的信道状态接近UE历经的信道状态,从而确保了基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,故而确保基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性以及数据传输效率。
请参阅图5,本发明实施例还提供一种通信设备,可包括:确定单元501、更新单元502,其中:

可以看出,本发明实施例中,在第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。由于第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,且第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于所述时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于时间阈值,这样使得UE在更新后的上报时刻上报的信道状态接近UE历经的信道状态,从而确保了基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,故而确保基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性以及数据传输效率。

可选的,在本发明一些可能的实现方式中,参考资源位于通信设备的服务小区在免许可频段上发送数据的时间段内;
其中,所述参考资源包括测量信道状态信息的参考信号,所述参考信号至少包括以下任意一种:小区公共参考信号CRS、信号状态信息参考信号CSI-RS、解调参考信号DMRS以及发现参考信号DRS。

可以看出,本发明实施例中,在第一信道状态信息对应的第一参考资源所在的时刻满足预设条件时,将所述第一信道状态信息的上报时刻由所述第一上报时刻更新为第二上报时刻。由于第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间存在不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源,且第一上报时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围小于时间阈值,因此,不同于所述第一参考资源的参考资源所在的时刻与第二上报时刻之间的时间范围必然小于所述时间阈值,这样使得UE在更新后的上报时刻上报的信道状态接近UE历经的信道状态,从而确保了基站接收到的信道状态信息CSI的准确性,故而确保基站和UE之间的数据传输可靠性以及数据传输效率。
