本申请涉及通信技术领域,特别涉及一种配置信息传输方法、装置及***。
背景技术
长期演进(英文:Long Term Evolution;简称:LTE)通信***中可以包括用户设备(英文:User Equipment;简称:UE)和为UE服务的基站。基站可以通过向UE发送配置信息来对UE进行资源配置。
相关技术中,基站可以将配置信息封装在下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information;简称:DCI)中,通过物理下行控制信道(英文:Physical Downlink Control Channel;简称:PDCCH)向UE发送配置信息,也可以将配置信息封装在无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control;简称:RRC)信令中,通过物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel;简称:PDSCH)向UE发送配置信息。
在实现本申请的过程中,发明人发现相关技术至少存在以下问题:当基站服务的UE的数量较多时,基站需要分别向每个UE发送配置信息来对每个UE进行资源配置,而如果基站服务的UE中部分UE的配置信息是相同的,基站需要分别向每个UE发送相同的资源配置信息,导致信令开销较大。
发明内容
为了解决相关技术中信令开销较大的问题,本发明实施例提供了一种配置信息传输方法、装置及***。所述技术方案如下:
第一方面,提供了一种配置信息传输方法,该方法包括:
基站确定目标群组对应的配置信息,该配置信息用于指示该目标群组中的用户设备UE的信道状态信息参考信号CSI-RS配置,该目标群组包括至少两个UE,该目标群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同;
该基站在第一预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送该配置信息。
在本发明实施例中,每个群组对应一个配置信息,因此,基站可以确定目标群组对应的配置信息,然后在第一预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送该配置信息,目标群组对应的配置信息用于指示目标群组中的UE的CSI-RS配置。其中,目标群组包括至少两个UE,目标群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同。
示例地,目标群组可以为群组A,群组A对应的配置信息可以为配置信息a,因此,基站可以确定配置信息a,然后在第一预设时频资源区域向该群组A中的UE发送该配置信息 a。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,第一预设时频资源区域可以在PDSCH上,也可以在PDCCH上,还可以在增强的物理下行控制信道(英文:Enhancedphysical downlink control channel;简称:EPDCCH)上,本发明实施例对此不作限定,本发明实施例以第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH上为例进行说明。
可选地,该第一预设时频资源区域在物理下行共享信道PDSCH上,该基站在第一预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送该配置信息之前,该方法还包括:
该基站确定指示信息,该指示信息用于指示该第一预设时频资源区域在该PDSCH中的位置;
该基站获取该目标群组的信道状态信息CSI无线网络临时标识RNTI;
该基站采用该目标群组的CSI-RNTI对该指示信息进行加扰;
该基站在物理下行控制信道PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的该指示信息。
基站可以确定指示信息,获取目标群组的CSI-RNTI,然后采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI对该指示信息进行加扰得到加扰后的指示信息,最后在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息,指示信息用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的位置。
其中,指示信息还用于指示UE的调制编码方式等,示例地,该指示信息可以为指示信息Z,基站确定目标群组A的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-A,基站采用ID-A对指示信息Z进行加扰,得到加扰后的指示信息,该加扰后的指示信息可以为Z1,因此,基站在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息Z1。
可选地,该基站在物理下行控制信道PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的该指示信息之前,该方法还包括:该基站将该目标群组的CSI-RNTI承载在无线资源控制RRC信令上发送至该目标群组中的UE。
基站可以将目标群组的CSI-RNTI封装在RRC信令中,然后通过PDSCH向目标群组中的UE发送RRC信令。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以向m个群组中的每个群组的UE发送相应的RRC信令,该m个群组包括目标群组;或者,基站可以只向目标群组中的UE发送RRC信令,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
示例地,目标群组可以为群组A,目标群组A的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-A,基站可以将ID-A封装在RRC信令中,然后通过PDSCH向目标群组A中的UE发送RRC信令。
可选地,该基站服务的群组包括:m个群组,该m为大于或者等于1的整数,该目标群组为该m个群组中的任意一个群组,该m个群组中任意两个群组的CSI-RNTI不同;或者,该m个群组中的所有群组的CSI-RNTI相同;
当该m个群组中的所有群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,该m个群组中的所有群组对应的加扰后的指示信息分时发送,该基站在物理下行控制信道PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的该指示信息,包括:该基站在目标时间段内的该第二预设时频资源区域向该目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的该指示信息,该目标时间段与该目标群组对应。
在本发明实施例中,m个群组的CSI-RNTI可以相同,也可以不同,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI不同时,基站可以在同一时间段内向不同的群组中的UE发送采用相应的CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信息,也可以在同一时间段内向不同的群组中的UE发送采用相应的CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信息,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,如果基站在同一时间段内向不同的群组中的UE发送采用同一个CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信息,m个群组中除目标群组以外的其他群组中的UE也能检测到该指示信息,导致配置信息接收错误,因此,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,每个群组可以对应一个时间段,该CSI-RNTI只在相应的时间段内对相应的群组中的UE有效,这样可以避免配置信息接收错误的情况。其中,基站在向各个群组中的UE发送配置信息时,可以根据配置信息的紧急程度对相应群组的UE发送配置信息,配置信息的发送顺序可以与紧急程度正相关。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以在目标群组对应的目标时间段内的第二预设时频资源区域向群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息。示例地,每个群组对应的时间段可以为一个传输时间间隔(英文:Transmission Time Interval;简称:TTI),基站可以在目标群组对应的TTI内的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息。

具体实施方式
请参考图1,其示出了本申请各个实施例所涉及一种实施环境的示意图,参见图1,该实施环境可以包括:基站01和多个UE。
基站01可以向多个UE下发配置信息来对该多个UE进行资源配置,配置信息可以用于指示UE的信道状态信息参考信号(英文:Channel State Information-Reference Signal;简称:CSI-RS)配置。
该多个UE中的部分UE的CSI-RS配置相同。基站01可以根据该多个UE的配置信息来对多个UE进行分组,得到m个群组,每个群组包括至少两个UE,同一个群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同,其中,该m为大于或者等于1的整数。示例地,如图1所示,多个UE包括:UE-021、UE-022、UE-023、UE-024、UE-025、UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029。假设UE-021、UE-022和UE-023的CSI-RS配置相同,UE-024和UE-025的CSI-RS配置相同,UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029的CSI-RS配置相同,则基站01可以将这些UE分成三个群组,该三个群组可以为群组A、群组B和群组C,其中,群组A包括:UE-021、UE-022和UE-023,群组B包括:UE-024和UE-025,群组C包括:UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029。
基站01得到m个群组后,可以为每个群组分配群组标识,该群组标识可以为信道状态信息无线网络临时标识(英文:Channel State Information-Radio Network Temporary Identity;简称:CSI-RNTI)。示例地,群组A的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-A,群组B的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-B,群组C的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-C,基站01可以向UE-021、UE-022和UE-023下发ID-A,向UE-024和UE-025下发ID-B,向UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029下发ID-C,该ID-A、ID-B和ID-C可以相同,也可以不同。
基站01可以确定目标群组对应的配置信息(也即是目标群组中的UE的配置信息),然后在第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息。在基站01向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息之前,基站01可以确定指示信息,获取目标群组的CSI-RNTI,采用目标 群组的CSI-RNTI对指示信息进行加扰,并在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息,其中,指示信息用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的位置,目标UE的调制编码方式等,目标群组中的每个UE可以根据目标群组的群组标识,在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域检测基站发送的加扰后的指示信息,并对加扰后的指示信息进行解扰得到指示信息,根据指示信息,从PDSCH的第一预设时频资源区域读取目标群组对应的配置信息。
示例地,假设目标群组为群组A,则基站01可以确定群组A对应的配置信息和指示信息,采用ID-A对指示信息进行加扰,并在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向群组A中的UE-021、UE-022和UE-023发送加扰后的指示信息,UE-021可以根据ID-A,在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域检测基站发送的加扰后的指示信息,并对加扰后的指示信息进行解扰得到指示信息,根据指示信息,从PDSCH的第一预设时频资源区域读取目标群组对应的配置信息。同理,UE-022和UE-023也可以获取到相应的配置信息。
与此同理,UE-024和UE-025可以获取到相应的配置信息,UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029可以获取到相应的配置信息。
需要说明的是,相关技术中,对于UE-021、UE-022和UE-023,基站01分别向UE-021、UE-022和UE-023发送配置信息和采用相应的UE的无线网络临时标识(英文:Radio Network Temporary Identity;简称:RNTI)加扰的指示信息,假设UE-021的RNTI为ID-A1,UE-022的RNTI为ID-A2,UE-023的RNTI为ID-A3,也即是,基站01向UE-021发送配置信息和采用ID-A1加扰的指示信息,向UE-022发送配置信息和采用ID-A2加扰的指示信息,向UE-023发送配置信息和采用ID-A3加扰的指示信息,UE-021、UE-022和UE-023根据各自的RNTI进行检测,得到相应的指示信息,并根据相应的指示信息读取到各自的配置信息,这样,由于UE-021、UE-022和UE-023的配置信息是相同的,而基站01需要发送三个指示信息和三个相同的配置信息,导致信令开销较大。

示例地,基站可以为图1所示实施环境中的基站01,多个UE可以包括图1所示实施环境中的UE-021、UE-022、UE-023、UE-024、UE-025、UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029,因此,基站确定多个UE的配置信息也即是:基站01确定UE-021的配置信息,UE-022的配置信息,UE-023的配置信息,UE-024的配置信息,UE-025的配置信息,UE-026的配置信息,UE-027的配置信息,UE-028的配置信息和UE-029的配置信息。
第一UE的配置信息用于指示第一UE的CSI-RS配置,第一UE为多个UE中的任意一个UE,示例地,第一UE可以为UE-021,UE-021的配置信息用于指示UE-021的CSI-RS配置。
其中,基站确定多个UE的配置信息的具体实现过程可以参考相关技术,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
步骤402、基站根据多个UE的配置信息,将多个UE分成m个群组,每个群组包括至少两个UE,同一个群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同,m为大于或者等于1的整数。
在本发明实施例中,多个UE中的部分UE的配置信息可能是相同的,比如,多个UE中的部分UE测量相同的端口(英文:port),或者,多个UE中的部分UE的beamformed(中文:波束成形)CSI-RS的weight(中文:权重)相同,因此,基站可以根据多个UE的配置信息,将多个UE分成m个群组,同一个群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同(也即是,同一个群组中所有UE的配置信息相同),m为大于或者等于1的整数。基站将多个UE分成m个群组后,每个群组可以对应一个配置信息,第一群组对应的配置信息用于指示第一群组中的UE的CSI-RS配置,第一群组为m个群组中的任意一个群组,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
示例地,假设UE-021、UE-022和UE-023的CSI-RS配置相同,UE-024和UE-025的CSI-RS配置相同,UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029的CSI-RS配置相同,则基站01可以根据这9个UE的配置信息,将这9个分成三个群组,该三个群组可以为群组A、群组B和群组C,每个群组可以对应一个配置信息,示例地,群组A对应的配置信息可以为配置信息a,群组B对应的配置信息可以为配置信息b,群组C对应的配置信息可以为配置信息c,其中,群组A包括:UE-021、UE-022和UE-023,群组B包括:UE-024和UE-025,群组C包括:UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029。群组A对应的配置信息a用于指示UE-021、UE-022和UE-023的CSI-RS配置,群组B对应的配置信息b用于指示UE-024和UE-025的CSI-RS配置,群组C对应的配置信息c用于指示UE-026、UE-027、UE-028和UE-029的CSI-RS配置。
步骤403、基站为m个群组中的每个群组分配CSI-RNTI。
基站将多个UE分成m个群组后,可以为m个群组中的每个群组分配CSI-RNTI。示例地,基站01为群组A分配CSI-RNTI,为群组B分配CSI-RNTI,为群组C分配CSI-RNTI,群组A的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-A,群组B的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-B,群组C的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-C,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
其中,基站为m个群组分配CSI-RNTI的过程可以参考相关技术中基站为UE分配 RNTI的过程,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,m个群组中所有群组的CSI-RNTI可以相同,或者,m个群组中的任意两个群组的CSI-RNTI不同,本发明实施例对此不作限定。其中,由于相关技术的协议中RNTI的预留值有限,本发明实施例通过为所有群组分配相同的CSI-RNTI,可以减少CSI-RNTI的值。
步骤404、基站将目标群组的CSI-RNTI承载在RRC信令上发送至目标群组中的UE,目标群组为m个群组中的任意一个群组,目标群组中的UE包括目标UE。
基站可以将目标群组的CSI-RNTI封装在RRC信令中,然后通过PDSCH向目标群组中的UE发送RRC信令。其中,目标群组为m个群组中的任意一个群组,目标群组中的UE包括目标UE。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以向m个群组中的每个群组的UE发送相应的RRC信令,该m个群组包括目标群组;或者,基站可以只向目标群组中的UE发送RRC信令,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
示例地,假设目标群组为群组A,则基站01将ID-A封装在RRC信令中,然后通过PDSCH向目标群组A中的UE-021、UE-022和UE-023发送RRC信令。
步骤405、目标UE接收基站发送的RRC信令。
其中,RRC信令承载有目标群组的CSI-RNTI。
基站向目标群组中的UE发送RRC信令时,目标UE可以接收基站发送的RRC信令,并对该RRC信令进行处理,得到目标群组的CSI-RNTI,该目标UE属于目标群组。
示例地,目标群组可以为群组A,目标UE可以为群组A中的UE-021,因此,也即是,UE-021接收基站01发送的RRC信令,对该RRC信令进行处理,得到目标群组的CSI-RNTI,目标群组的CSI-RNTI为ID-A。
需要说明的是,目标UE在得到目标群组的CSI-RNTI后,若目标UE自身存储有CSI-RNTI,该目标UE可以根据目标群组的CSI-RNTI对自身存储的CSI-RNTI进行更新。比如,UE-021之前属于群组B,存储的CSI-RNTI为ID-B,则UE-021在得到ID-A后,目标UE可以根据ID-A对之前存储的ID-B进行更新,此时,UE-021属于群组A。
步骤406、基站确定目标群组对应的配置信息,配置信息用于指示目标群组中的UE的CSI-RS配置。
由步骤402可知,m个群组中的每个群组对应一个配置信息,因此,基站可以确定目标群组对应的配置信息,目标群组对应的配置信息用于指示目标群组中的UE的CSI-RS配置。其中,目标群组包括至少两个UE,目标群组中所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同。
示例地,目标群组为群组A,群组A对应的配置信息为配置信息a,因此,基站01可以确定配置信息a,配置信息a用于指示UE-021、UE-022和UE-023的CSI-RS配置。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,基站确定目标群组对应的配置信息后,可以将目标群组对应的配置信息封装在RRC信令中,在PDSCH上的第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送,也可以将目标群组对应的配置信息承载在DCI中,在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送,当基站在PDSCH上的第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息时,基站需要在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送指示信息,该指示信息用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的 位置,使得目标群组中的UE能够根据指示信息读取第一预设时频资源区域中的RRC信令中的配置信息。本发明实施例以基站将目标群组对应的配置信息封装在RRC信令中为例进行说明。
步骤407、基站确定指示信息,指示信息用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的位置。
基站可以确定指示信息,指示信息用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的位置。示例地,该指示信息可以为指示信息Z。
可选地,基站在确定第一预设时频资源区域后,可以生成指示信息,基站生成指示信息的具体实现过程可以参考相关技术,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
步骤408、基站获取目标群组的CSI-RNTI。
基站可以获取目标群组的CSI-RNTI。示例地,基站获取目标群组A的CSI-RNTI,该目标群组A的CSI-RNTI可以为ID-A。
步骤409、基站采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI对指示信息进行加扰。
基站确定指示信息以及获取到目标群组的CSI-RNTI后,可以采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI对指示信息进行加扰,得到加扰后的指示信息。示例地,基站01采用ID-A对指示信息Z进行加扰,得到加扰后的指示信息Z1。其中,基站采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI对指示信息进行加扰的具体实现过程可以参考相关技术,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
步骤410、基站在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息。
可选地,基站可以将加扰后的指示信息封装在DCI中,通过PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息。由于加扰后的指示信息是采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI加扰的,而在本发明实施例中,m个群组的CSI-RNTI可以相同,也可以不同,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI不同时,基站可以在同一时间段内向不同的群组中的UE发送采用相应的CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信息,也可以在不同时间段向不同的群组中的UE发送采用相应的CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,如果基站在同一时间段内向不同的群组中的UE发送采用同一个CSI-RNTI加扰的指示信息,m个群组中除目标群组以外的其他群组中的UE也能检测到该指示信息,导致配置信息接收错误,因此,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,每个群组可以对应一个时间段,该CSI-RNTI只在相应的时间段内对相应的群组中的UE有效,这样可以避免配置信息接收错误的情况。其中,基站在向各个群组中的UE发送配置信息时,可以根据配置信息的紧急程度对相应群组的UE发送配置信息,配置信息的发送顺序可以与紧急程度正相关。
在本发明实施例中,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,该步骤410也可以为基站在目标时间段内的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息,目标时间段与目标群组对应。示例地,基站在目标时间段内的第二预设时频资源区域向群组A中的UE-021、UE-022和UE-023发送加扰后的指示信息。示例地,每个群组对应的时间段可以为一个TTI,基站可以在目标群组对应的TTI内的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息。
需要说明的是,PDCCH上的搜索空间可以包括:UE搜索空间、公共搜索空间和群组搜索空间,其中,UE搜索空间和公共搜索空间是相关技术中存在的搜索空间,群组搜索空 间是本申请新增加的搜索空间。UE搜索空间用于承载基站向UE发送的DCI,位于UE搜索空间中的DCI可以采用UE的RNTI加扰,因此,UE可以根据UE的RNTI,在该UE搜索空间中检测到相应的DCI;公共搜索空间用于承载基站发送的公共DCI,位于公共搜索空间中的DCI可以采用所有UE的共有标识加扰,因此,UE可以根据所有UE的共有标识,在该公共搜索空间中检测到相应的DCI,其中,所有UE的共有标识可以包括但不限于:寻呼标识、传输格式标识、上行功率控制标识等;群组搜索空间是本申请中新增加的一个搜索空间,群组搜索空间固定在PDCCH的某些CCE上,用于承载基站向群组发送的DCI,位于群组搜索空间中的DCI可以采用群组的CSI-RNTI加扰,因此,UE可以根据群组的CSI-RNTI,在该群组搜索空间中检测到相应的DCI。在本发明实施例中,第二预设时频资源区域可以为公共搜索空间中的时频资源区域,也可以为群组搜索空间中的时频资源区域,当第二预设时频资源区域为群组搜索空间中的时频资源区域时,基站在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息之前,可以将PDCCH上的多个预设CCE所组成的搜索空间确定为群组搜索空间,然后通过在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送加扰后的指示信息,基站将PDCCH上的多个预设CCE所组成的搜索空间确定为群组搜索空间的过程可以参考相关技术,本发明实施例对此不作限定。其中,根据相关技术的协议中RNTI的预留值,当第二预设时频资源区域为公共搜索空间中的时频资源区域时,CSI-RNTI的取值可以为FFF4-FFFC(十六进制数),当第二预设时频资源区域为群组搜索空间中的时频资源区域时,CSI-RNTI的取值可以为0000-FFFF(十六进制数),本发明实施例通过设置群组搜索空间,可以很好的提高兼容性。
步骤411、基站在第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息。
当第一预设时频资源区域位于PDSCH上时,该步骤也即是:基站在PDSCH上的第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息。当第一预设时频资源区域位于PDCCH上时,该步骤也即是:基站在PDCCH上的第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息。本发明实施例以第一预设时频资源区域位于PDSCH上为例进行说明。
示例地,基站01在第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组A中的UE-021、UE-022和UE-023发送配置信息a。
步骤412、目标UE在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域检测基站发送的加扰后的指示信息。
其中,加扰后的指示信息是基站确定指示信息后,采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI对指示信息进行加扰得到的,指示信息可以用于指示第一预设时频资源区域在PDSCH中的位置,目标UE的调制编码方式等。
目标UE可以根据目标群组的CSI-RNTI,在PDCCH上的第二预设时频资源区域检测加扰后的指示信息。其中,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,目标UE可以根据目标群组的CSI-RNTI,在目标群组对应的目标时间段内的第二预设时频资源区域检测加扰后的指示信息,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
示例地,目标UE可以为UE-021,UE-021可以根据目标群组的CSI-RNTI,在与目标群组A对应的目标时间段内的第二预设时频资源区域检测加扰后的指示信息Z1。
步骤413、目标UE在第一预设时频资源区域接收基站发送的配置信息。
其中,配置信息是基站确定目标群组对应的配置信息后,在第一预设时频资源区域向 目标群组中的UE发送的,目标群组包括至少两个UE,配置信息用于指示目标群组中的UE的CSI-RS配置,目标群组中的所有UE的CSI-RS配置相同,目标UE属于目标群组。
目标UE检测到加扰后的指示信息后,可以对加扰后的指示信息进行解扰得到指示信息,根据指示信息,在第一预设时频资源区域接收基站发送的配置信息。示例地,UE-021在第一预设时频资源区域接收基站01发送的配置信息a。
需要说明的是,当m个群组的CSI-RNTI相同时,目标UE在对指示信息检测成功之后,可以采用无效标记对目标群组的CSI-RNTI进行标记,无效标记用于指示目标群组的CSI-RNTI无效,这样可以便于其他群组使用该CSI-RNTI。可选地,目标UE可以将目标群组的CSI-RNTI删除或者丢弃,使得目标群组的CSI-RNTI对于目标UE无效。
步骤414、目标UE根据配置信息接收CSI-RS,并基于接收到的CSI-RS进行信道估计。
目标UE接收配置信息后,可以根据配置信息接收CSI-RS,并基于收到的CSI-RS进行信道估计。其中,目标UE基于接收到的CSI-RS进行信道估计的过程可以参考相关技术,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,第一预设时频资源区域可以是PDSCH上的时频资源区域,也可以是PDCCH上的时频资源区域,当第一预设时频资源区域是PDSCH上的时频资源区域时,可以按照上述步骤401至步骤414实现基站与UE之间的配置信息传输;当第一预设时频资源区域是PDCCH上的时频资源区域,可以按照上述步骤401至步骤406以及步骤413和步骤414实现基站与UE之间的配置信息传输,在此过程中,基站需要将目标群组对应的配置信息封装在DCI中,并采用目标群组的CSI-RNTI进行加扰,目标UE可以根据目标群组的CSI-RNTI对PDCCH进行盲检测,得到目标群组对应的配置信息,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。还需要说明的是,本发明实施例中是以指示信息在PDCCH传输为例进行说明的,实际应用中,指示信息也可以在增强的物理下行控制信道(英文:Enhancedphysical downlink control channel;简称:EPDCCH)上传输,本发明实施例对此不作限定。
需要补充说明的是,本发明实施例提供的配置信息传输方法步骤的先后顺序可以进行适当调整,步骤也可以根据情况进行相应增减,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本申请揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化的方法,都应涵盖在本申请的保护范围之内,因此不再赘述。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供的配置信息传输方法,基站确定目标群组对应的配置信息,并在第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息。由于基站在第一预设时频资源区域向目标群组中的UE发送配置信息,因此,传输配置信息的信令开销较小,解决了相关技术中信令开销较大的问题,达到了减小信令开销的效果。
随着大规模(英文:Massive)多输入多输出(英文:Multiple-Input Multiple-Out-put;简称:MIMO)***的使用,基站服务的UE越来越多,基站需要向每个UE发送承载相应的配置信息的RRC信令,这样,当一组UE的配置信息相同时,由于基站需要向每个UE都发送RRC信令,导致RRC信令开销较大;本发明实施例提供的配置信息传输方法,在UE密集的网络中,可以大大节省RRC信令开销。
随着通信***的发展,在未来的第五代(英文:Fifth Generation;简称:5G)通信***中,每个网络中所能容纳的用户数越来越多,随着用户数的大规模增加,基站对UE的各种配置信息也会随之大大的增加,这同时也就带来了大量的信令开销,在一个小区内,由于 各种因素的变化(例如信道环境的变化)等,UE的配置也会随着发生变化,在UE密集的场景中,一组UE可能需要一样的半静态配置信息,当半静态配置信息需要更新时,相关技术中的基站需要向每个UE下发一个承载半静态配置信息的RRC信令,导致信令开销较大,本发明实施例通过在第一预设时频资源区域向一个群组中的所有UE发送半静态配置信息,减小了信令开销。
以下以一个简单的例子对本发明实施例的效果进行简单说明。
在不考虑RRC信令中的可选项的情况下,基站向UE发送的承载有配置信息RRC信令中包括:CSI process(中文:CSI进程)和CSI-RS resource configuration(中文:CSI-RS资源配置),CSI process用于指示CSI-RS resource configuration,CSI-RS Resource configuration中包括CSI-RS的端口数、CSI-RS的更新周期、CSI-RS的发送时刻以及CSI-RS所占用的物理资源块。假设CSI process需要16bits(中文:比特),CSI-RS resource configuration需要26bits,基站服务的UE有30个。
相关技术中,基站需要向每个UE发送一个承载有配置信息RRC信令,因此,相关技术中的信令开销为:30*(16+26)=1260bits。
本发明实施例中,基站可以将30个UE分为5群组,每个群组包括6个UE,基站向UE发送承载有群组CSI-RNTI的RRC信令需要3bits,由于是针对每个群组发送一个承载有配置信息RRC信令,因此,本发明实施例的信令开销为:30*3+(16+26)*5=300bits。
因此,针对这种情况,本发明实施例可以减少(1260-300)bits的信令,信令可以减少(1260-300)/1260=76%。
