Description

一种信息传输方法、装置和设备
本申请要求于2018年11月2日提交中国专利局、申请号为201811303305.4、发明名称为“一种信息传输方法、装置和设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,尤其是涉及一种信息传输方法、装置和设备。
背景技术
随着智能终端中视频业务的出现,当前的频谱资源已经难以满足用户对容量需求的***式增长,具有更大的可用带宽的高频频段比如毫米波频段,日益成为下一代通信***的候选频段。另一方面,现代通信***通常使用多天线技术来提高***的容量和覆盖,以便改善用户的体验。此外,使用高频频段还可以大大减小多天线配置的尺寸,从而便于站址获取和更多天线的部署。然而,与现有长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)***的工作频段不同的是,高频频段将导致更大的路径损耗,特别是大气、植被等因素的影响更进一步加剧了无线传播的损耗。
为克服高频频段带来的传播损耗,一种基于波束赋形(Beamforming,BF)技术的信号传输机制被采用,以通过较大的天线增益来补偿信号传播过程中的损耗。其中,波束赋形的信号可以包括广播信号,同步信号,以及小区特定的参考信号等。
当信号基于波束赋形技术进行传输时,一旦用户发生移动,可能出现传输信号对应的赋形波束的方向不再匹配移动后的用户位置,从而会导致接收信号频繁中断的问题。为了跟踪信号传输过程中的赋形波束的变化,一种基于波束赋形技术的信道质量测量及结果上报被引入。所述信道质量的测量可以基于波束赋形后的同步信号或小区特定参考信号来实现。其中,相比小区之间的切换,用户在不同赋形波束间的切换会更加动态和频繁,因此需要一种动态的测量和上报机制。
具体地,终端通过对基站发送的多个波束进行测量,并选择其中较优的N个波束,然后再将这些较优波束的波束测量信息上报给基站。其中,波束测量信息也可称为波束状态信息(beam state information,BSI),内容主要包括波束索引、波束的参考信号接收功率(reference signal received power,RSRP)。如图1(e)所示为基站发送的波束的训练过程,反之如图1(d)所示,UE发送多个波束,基站对UE发送的多个波束进行测量,并且将UE发送的多个波束中较优的波束通知给UE。一般地,在标准中将基站发射侧的波束通过参考信号资源来表示,比如波束索引1,可以在标准中描述为参考信号资源索引1,终端侧的接收波束通过准共站或准共址假设信息中的空间接收参数来指示,其中,波束状态信息则可以描述为L1-RSRP related information。
如图1所示的波束训练过程可包括:
1)选择最优的N个波束对链路(Beam pair link,BPL),其中一个BPL包括一个网络设备发射波束和一个终端(或终端设备)接收波束,或者,一个BPL包括一个 终端发射波束和一个网络设备接收波束的选择。用于该终端基于网络设备的波束扫描实现对网络设备发射波束和/或终端接收波束的选择,以及,网络设备基于终端的波束扫描实现对终端发射波束和/或基站接收波束的选择,如图1(a)所示的下行联合波束训练过程和1(b)所示上行联合波束训练过程。
2)发射波束的更新,所述发射波束可以为网络设备的发射波束,也可以为终端的发射波束。当该发射波束为网络设备发射波束时,如图1(e)所示的下行网络设备的波束训练过程,网络设备通过不同的发射波束向终端发送参考信号,终端通过同一个接收波束来接收网络设备通过不同的发射波束发送的参考信号,并基于这些接收参考信号确定网络设备的最优发射波束,然后终端将该最优发射波束反馈给网络设备,以便于网络设备对发射波束进行更新。
同理地,当所述发射波束为终端发射波束时,如图1(d)所示上行终端波束训练过程,终端通过不同的发射波束向网络设备发送参考信号,网络设备通过同一个接收波束来接收终端通过不同的发射波束发送的参考信号,并基于接收信号确定终端的最优发射波束,然后网络设备将该最优发射波束反馈给终端,以便于终端对发射波束进行更新。其中,上述通过不同的发射波束发送参考信号的过程可以称为波束扫描,基于接收信号确定最优发射波束的过程可以称为波束匹配。
3)接收波束的更新,所述接收波束可以为网络设备接收波束,也可以为终端接收波束。当该接收波束为网络设备接收波束时,如图1(f)所示上行网络设备的波束训练过程,终端通过同一个发射波束向网络设备发送参考信号,网络设备采用不同的接收波束接收终端发送的参考信号,然后基于接收信号确定网络设备的最优接收波束,以对网络设备的接收波束进行更新。当该接收波束为终端的接收波束时,如图1(c)所示的下行终端波束训练过程,网络设备通过同一个发射波束向终端发送参考信号,终端采用不同的接收波束接收网络设备发送的参考信号,然后基于接收信号确定终端的最优接收波束,以对终端的接收波束进行更新。
在下行信号的传输中,网络设备发射波束和终端接收波束均可能发生动态变化,且终端基于接收信号确定的最优接收波束可能包括多个,为了使终端确定自身的接收波束,终端可以将多个接收波束的信息反馈给网络设备,网络设备可以通过向终端发送波束指示信息来向终端指示终端接收波束。当终端采用模拟域的波束赋形时,终端可以基于网络设备发送的波束指示信息来精确的确定终端接收波束,从而可以节省终端设备的波束扫描时间,达到省电的效果。
当前的波束指示方法,仅考虑了只有一个传输接收点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)时,在某时刻使用一个波束与该终端通信的传输方式。但是在新一代通信***,比如新空口(new radio,NR)中,可以支持网络设备同时使用不同的波束与一个终端进行通信,即多波束传输(multi-beam transmission),或者也可以支持多个TRP为终端服务。其中,多个TRP与一个终端通信包括多个TRP同时与一个终端通信,或者是由动态选择节点(dynamic point selection,DPS)与一个终端通信。其中,多个TRP同时与一个终端通信的场景也可以称为非相干联合传输(Incoherent joint transmission,NCJT)场景或NCJT传输方式。
对于上述各种场景或传输方式的QCL信息的指示现有协议无法支持,因此在多波 束/多链路/多层传输或多个TRP传输的场景下,需要引入相应的机制指示数据信道的QCL信息。

本实施例提供的方法,终端通过接收基站发送的第一信令,所述第一信令中配置有第一字域的状态值,来指示多个空间相关参数中的目标空间相关参数,使得终端可以使用该目标空间相关参数接收第一信道,从而解决了多个DCI信令各调度一份数据,每份数据来自不同TRP的场景时的数据的QCL信息指示问题;和一个DCI信令调度的数据来自不同TRP的场景时数据的QCL信息指示问题,以及对于动态选择发射节点的传输场景,数据的QCL信息指示问题。
另外,本方法由于终端在多个候选状态值中至少有一个状态值对应两个或两个以上空间相关参数,所以相比于现有的一个状态值仅对应一个空间相关参数而言,增加了TCI信息配置的灵活性。并且配置有一个候选状态值对应多个空间相关参数的关联关系还节约了指示的开销。
在所述第一方面中,所述第一空间相关参数包括第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数,天线端口字域的状态值分为第一取值和第二取值,传输块字域的状态值分为第一取值和第二取值,天线端口字域指示的信息分为第一取值和第二取值;所述终端根据所述传输块字域的取值,和/或,天线端口字域的取值,和/或,天线端口字域指示的信息的取值,确定所述一个或多个目标空间相关信息。
具体地,可以有以下几种可能的方式:
第一种可能的实现方式:在天线端口字域的状态值为第一取值和传输块字域的状态值为第一取值的情况下,确定所述一个或多个目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数;和/或,

在天线端口字域指示的信息的第一取值指示的DMRS port CDM group个数大于1的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数(如TCI c1)和第三空间相关参数(如TCI c9)。此时,天线端口字域指示的第一个DMRS CDM group中的DMRS port对应TCI c1,天线端口字域指示的除第一个DMRS CDM group外的其他DMRS port对应TCI c9。比如,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port属于DMRS CDM group 00和DMRS CDM group 01,那么天线端口字域指示的DMRS port中属于DMRS CDM group 00的DMRS port对应TCI c1,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port中属于DMRS CDM group 01的DMRS port对应TCI c9;再比如,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port属于DMRS CDM group 00、DMRS CDM group 01、DMRS CDM group 11,那么天线端口字域指示的DMRS port中属于DMRS CDM group 00的DMRS port对应TCI c1,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port中属于DMRS CDM group 01和DMRS CDM group 11的DMRS port对应TCI c9。

具体实施方式
为了使本技术领域的人员更好地理解本申请实施例中的技术方案,并使本申请实施例的上述目的、特征和优点能够更加明显易懂,下面结合附图对本申请实施例中的技术方案作进一步详细的说明。
在对本申请实施例的技术方案说明之前,首先对本申请实施例中的相关技术术语和应用场景进行解释和说明。
1、控制资源集合(control resource set,CORESET)
CORESET:为了提高终端盲检控制信道的效率,NR标准制定过程中提出了控制资源集合的概念。网络设备可为UE配置一个或多个资源集合,用于发送物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)。网络设备可以在终端对应的任一控制资源集合上,向终端发送控制信道。此外,网络设备还需要通知终端所述控制资源集合的相关联的其他配置,例如搜索空间集合等。每个控制资源集合的配置信息存在差异,例如频域宽度差异、时域长度差异等。
可选的,本申请中的控制资源集合可以是5G移动通信***定义的CORESET或控制区域(control region)或ePDCCH集合(set)。
2、同位置假设(Quasi-collocation,QCL)信息
QCL信息:准共站/准共址QCL假设信息也可以称为QCL信息。QCL信息用于辅助描述终端接收侧波束赋形信息以及接收流程。
进一步地,QCL信息用于指示两种参考信号之间的QCL关系,源参考信号和目标参考信号,其中目标参考信号一般是可以是解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS),信道状态信息参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)等,而被引用的参考信号或者源参考信号一般可以是CSI-RS、追踪参考信号(tracking reference signal,TRS)、同步信号广播信道块(synchronous signal/PBCH block,SSB)等。应理解满足QCL关系的两个参考信号或信道的空间特性参数是相同的,从而基于该源参考信号资源索引可推断出目标参考信号的空间特性参数。其中,空间特性参数包括以下参数中的一种或多种:
入射角(angle of arrival,AoA)、主(dominant)入射角AoA、平均入射角、入射角的功率角度谱(power angular spectrum,PAS)、出射角(angle of departure,AoD)、主出射角、平均出射角、出射角的功率角度谱、终端发送波束成型、终端接收波束成型、空间信道相关性、基站发送波束成型、基站接收波束成型、平均信道增益、平均信道时延(average delay)、时延扩展(delay spread)、多普勒扩展(Doppler spread)、多普勒频移(Doppler shift)、空间接收参数(spatial Rx parameters)等。
这些空间特性参数描述了源参考信号与目标参考信号的天线端口间的空间信道特性,有助于终端根据该QCL信息完成接收侧波束赋形或接收处理过程。应理解地,终端可以根据QCL信息指示的源参考信号的接收信息,接收目标参考信号。
其中,为了节省网络设备侧对终端侧的QCL信息指示开销,一种可选的实施方式是,网络设备侧可以指示物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)或物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)的解调参考信号与终端之前上报的多个参考信号资源中的一个或多个是满足QCL关系的,如,该参考信号可以是CSI-RS。这里,每一个上报的CSI-RS资源索引对应了一个之前基于该CSI-RS资源测量时建立的一个收发波束对。应理解地,满足QCL关系的两个参考信号或信道的接收波束信息是相同的,从而基于该参考信号资源索引UE可推断出接收PDCCH或PDSCH的接收波束信息。
现有标准中定义了四种类型的QCL,基站可以同时给UE配置一个或多种类型的QCL,如QCL type,A+D或者C+D:
QCL类型A:多普勒频移(Doppler shift)、多普勒拓展(Doppler spread)、平均信道时延(average delay)和时延拓展(delay spread);
QCL类型B:多普勒频移和多普勒拓展;
QCL类型C:平均信道时延和多普勒频移;
QCL类型D:空间接收参数(spatial Rx parameter)。
可以理解地,本申请中的QCL信息包括QCL类型A、类型B、类型C和类型D中的一个或多个。
3、空间相关信息(spatial relation infomation)
空间相关信息,用于辅助描述终端发射侧波束赋形信息或发射流程。具体地,所述空间相关信息用于指示两种参考信号之间的空间接收参数关系,其中目标参考信号一般是可以是DMRS,探测参考信号(SRS)等,而被引用的参考信号或者源参考信号一般可以是CSI-RS、SRS、SSB等。应理解地,满足空间相关性信息的两个参考信号或信道的空间特性参数是相同的,从而基于该源参考信号资源索引可推断出目标参考信号的空间特性参数。其中,所述空间特性参数与上述空间特性参数,比如入射角(angle of arrival,AoA)、主(Dominant)入射角AoA、平均入射角、…、空间接收参数(spatial Rx parameters)等相同,此处不详细例举。这些空间特性参数描述了源参考信号与目标参考信号的天线端口间的空间信道特性,有助于终端根据该空间相关信息完成发射侧波束赋形或发射处理过程。应理解,终端可以根据空间相关信息指示的源参考信号的发射信息,发射目标参考信号。
4、传输配置指示(transmission configuration indicator,TCI)
TCI信息:用于指示PDCCH/CORESET或者是PDSCH的QCL信息。进一步地,TCI信息是指TCI中包括的参考信号与PDCCH/PDSCH的DMRS满足QCL关系,主要用于指示接收PDCCH/PDSCH时,其空间特性参数等信息与TCI中包括的参考信号的空间特性参数等信息相同、相似或相近。
5、同步信号广播信道块(SS/PBCH block)
SS/PBCH block(synchronous signal/PBCH block)还可以称为SSB。其中,物理广播信道(physical broadcast channel,PBCH)。SSB包含主同步信号(primary synchronization signal,PSS)、辅同步信号(secondary synchronization signal,SSS)和PBCH中的至少一个。主要用于小区搜索、小区同步、承载广播信息的信号。
6、波束(beam)
波束是一种通信资源。波束可以是宽波束,或者窄波束,或者其他类型波束。形成波束的技术可以是波束赋形技术或者其他技术手段。波束赋形技术可以具体为数字波束赋形技术,模拟波束赋形技术,混合数字/模拟波束赋形技术。不同的波束可以认为是不同的资源,通过不同的波束可以发送相同的信息或者不同的信息。
可选的,可以将具有相同或者类似的通信特征的多个波束视为是一个波束。一个波束内可以包括一个或多个天线端口,用于传输数据信道,控制信道和探测信号等。例如,发射波束可以是指:信号经天线发射出去后在空间不同方向上形成的信号强度的分布,接收波束可以是指:从天线上接收到的无线信号在空间不同方向上的信号强度分布。可以理解的是,形成一个波束的一个或多个天线端口也可以看作是一个天线 端口集。
波束可以分为网络设备的发送波束和接收波束,与终端的发送波束和接收波束。网络设备,比如基站的发送波束用于描述网络设备发送侧波束赋形信息,基站接收波束用于描述网络设备接收侧波束赋形信息。同理地,终端的发送波束用于描述终端发送侧波束赋形信息,终端接收波束用于描述终端接收侧波束赋形信息。因此概括地理解,波束可以用于描述波束赋形信息。
此外,波束可以对应时间资源,空间资源,频域资源中的一种或多种。
可选的,波束还可以与参考信号资源(例如,波束赋形的参考信号资源),或者波束赋形信息产生对应关系。
可选的,波束还可以与网络设备的参考信号资源关联的信息相对应。其中,参考信号可以为CSI-RS,SSB,DMRS,相位跟踪信号(phase tracking reference signal,PTRS),TRS等,与参考信号资源关联的信息可以是参考信号资源标识,或者QCL信息(特别是类型D的QCL),TCI信息等。其中,参考信号资源标识对应了之前基于该参考信号资源测量时建立的一个收发波束对,通过该参考信号资源索引,终端可推断波束信息。
可选的,波束还可以与空域滤波器(spatial filter/spatial domain filter),空域传输滤波器(spatial domain transmission filter)、空间滤波器、空间传输滤波器对应。其中,接收波束等价于空间传输滤波器,空域传输滤波器,空域接收滤波器,空间接收滤波器;发送波束可以等价于空域滤波器,空域传输滤波器,空域发送滤波器,空间发送滤波器。空间相关参数的信息等价于空间滤波器(spatial domain transmission/receive filter)。
进一步地,空间滤波器一般包括:空间发送滤波器,和/或,空间接收滤波器。该空间滤波器还可以称之为空域发送滤波器,空域接收滤波器,空间传输滤波器,空域传输滤波器等。可选的,终端侧的接收波束和网络设备侧的发送波束可以作为下行空间滤波器,终端侧的发送波束和网络设备侧的接收波束可以作为上行空间滤波器。
7、初始带宽区域(Bandwidth part,BWP)
当终端从RRC空闲(idle)状态接入一个小区或者一个宽带载波时,终端初始接入时的BWP称为:初始BWP(initial BWP),或者可以理解为终端在初始BWP上执行随机接入。
8、激活(active)BWP
当终端有业务到达时,网络设备将终端从初始BWP调度到一个带宽和其业务相匹配的BWP上,并且可以通过高层信令或者层一信令指示当前终端设备工作的BWP,网络设备,终端在这个BWP上可以收发数据和或参考信号。这个BWP就称为激活BWP。对于单载波的情况或一个服务小区的情况,一个终端在同一时刻只有一个激活的BWP,终端只能在激活的BWP上接收数据/参考信号或者发送数据/参考信号。
目前通信***中支持BWP的动态切换。网络设备通过下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)或无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令指示终端设备进行BWP的切换。DCI位于当前BWP中,其频域资源分配信息域的大小由当前BWP的带宽决定。DCI中有一个带宽区域指示(bandwidth part indicator)的信息域, 用于指示终端所激活的BWP的ID号。当该信息域所指示的BWP ID号与终端当前激活的BWP ID号(即传输DCI的当前BWP)不一致时,终端需要从当前BWP切换至DCI中所指示的BWP上。
当前,通信***通常使用不同种类的参考信号:一类参考信号用于估计信道,比如DMRS,从而可以对含有控制信息或者数据的接收信号进行相干解调;另一类用于信道状态或信道质量的测量,比如CSI-RS,从而实现对UE的调度。UE基于对CSI-RS的信道质量测量得到信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI),所述CSI包括秩指示(Rank Indicator,RI),预编码指示(Precoding Matrix Indicator,PMI),信道质量指示(Channel Quality Indicator,CQI)等中的至少一种.这些CSI信息可由UE通过物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)或物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)发送给基站。
现有的PDSCH或PUSCH的空间相关参数信息方法如下:
对于PDSCH的波束指示,主要是通过TCI信息来实现,例如通过无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)信令、介质介入控制(Medium Access Control,MAC-CE)信令和下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)联合指示,或者,还可以通过RRC信令和DCI联合指示。
具体地,一种动态指示的方法包括:
RRC配置PDSCH的M个候选传输配置指示(Transmission Configuration Indicator,TCI)状态(states),所述每个候选TCI状态中包括一个QCL信息。
MAC-CE从M个TCI state中激活2 N个TCI状态(M个TCI states的子集)。
参见表1,示出了一种利用MAC-CE指示TCI字域的激活或去激活的状态的示意图。
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000001
表1
其中,服务小区标识(serving cell ID):用于指示该MAC-CE所指示的TCI所属的服务小区的ID。
带宽区域(Bandwidth part,BWP)ID:用于指示该MAC-CE所应用的下行带宽区域。
Ti字域:用于指示TCI state ID i的TCI state的激活/去激活状态。进一步地,如果Ti字域为“1”,则表示TCI state ID i的TCI处于被激活状态,并映射到DCI中的TCI字域。如果Ti字域为“0”,则表示TCI state ID i的TCI state处于被去激活状态,且不会映射到DCI的TCI字域。
“R”表示预留比特(Reserved bit),一般设置为“0”。
其中,TCI state映射到DCI的码点(codepoint)按照其所有Ti字域,设置为“1”的TCI state顺序映射。例如,第一个Ti字域设置为“1”的TCI state映射到codepoint  value 0的位置;第二个Ti字域设置为“1”的TCI state映射到codepoint value 1的位置,以此类推,激活的TCI状态的value的最大个数为8。
DCI中的TCI字域有N bit用于指示2N个TCI State中的一个TCI State用于PDSCH的接收,现有协议中当N=3时,表2所示的DCI可以用于指示TCI state中的一个。
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000002
表2
其中,DCI字域中是否存在PDSCH的TCI field可以通过高层信令指示,比如RRC信令中的TCI-PresentInDCI字段,每个CORESET都可以配置的该字段,当某个CORESET配置了该字段是使能的,那么在该CORESET检测的DCI中存在TCI字域;当某个CORESET没有配置该字段,那么该CORESET检测的DCI中不存在TCI字域,此时,可选的,PDSCH的TCI state为PDCCH配置的TCI state。
当调度偏移值小于门限k时,UE使用默认的TCI状态接收PDSCH;当调度偏移值大于门限k时,UE使用DCI中指示的TCI状态ID接收PDSCH。规定,在初始RRC和MAC-CE阶段,UE假设PDCCH,PDSCH的DMRS与初始接入时确定的同步信号广播信道块(synchronous signal/PBCH block,SSB)是QCL的。
对于PUSCH的波束指示,其实现的波束信息可以是通过RRC信令、MAC-CE信令和DCI联合指示,或者由RRC信息和DCI来指示,其中DCI中包括探测参考信号资源指示(SRS resource indicator,SRI)字域,用于指示PUSCH的波束信息(spatial relation信息)。协议中的spatial relation的指示如下:
一般地,基站通过信令配置用于指示数据信道的QCL信息的TCI表或TCI集合,DCI中的TCI字域指示该TCI表或TCI集合中的一个TCI状态,每个TCI字域的状态值(value)仅对应一个传输配置指示TCI状态ID(QCL信息)。例如,基站通过RRC信令指示64个TCI状态用于PDSCH的接收,MAC-CE信令激活64个TCI状态中的8个TCI状态,该8个TCI状态的ID为a1至a8,DCI字域的一个状态值000对应TCI状态ID a1,终端设备根据TCI state Id a1指示的TCI state接收PDSCH。
再例如,DCI指示3个波束中的一个,即TRP1从3个可选波束中的1个波束发送的数据,在接收端UE对应1个波束接收,即一个DCI信令调度的一份数据均来自一个TRP,如图2a所示,该场景属于单TRP单波束(single TRP with single-beam)传 输方式。
此外,还包括其它场景的传输方式,例如图2b所示,TRP1同时将使用两个波束向UE发送数据,该场景属于单TRP多波束(single TRP with multi-beam)传输方式。以及图2c所示的多TRP多波束(multi TRP with multi-beam)同时传输的场景,即TRP1和TRP2分别使用一个波束传输数据给UE,即一份数据来自两个不同的TRP。可选的,所述多TRP多波束的传输场景也可称为非相干联合发送(Non coherent joint transmission,NCJT)场景。在该场景下,UE需要多个波束指示信息来接收数据信道。
可选的,还包括一种可能的传输场景,多个DCI各调度一份数据,且每份数据来自不同的TRP。如图2d所示的动态选择节点(dynamic point selection,DPS)传输场景。
对于上述各种可能的传输场景,对于一个DCI调度来自多个TRP的数据情况,采用当前TCI状态ID的表格形式无法支持,对于多个DCI调度来自多个TRP的数据的情况,当前DCI指示的TCI信息的灵活度较低,且对于各种传输场景下指示不同的TCI字域状态时,所占用的指示信息开销较大。

实施例一
本实施例提供了一种信息传输方法,可应用于上述各种传输场景,例如多个DCI对应多个TRP的场景,或者DPS场景,不同时刻DCI可以调度不同TRP的数据,UE确定当前数据所使用的空间相关参数的具体过程如下:
如图4所示,本实施例提供的方法包括:
步骤101:基站发送第一信令。
其中,所述第一信令包括第一字域,所述第一字域的状态值用于指示接收第一信道的第一空间相关参数,所述第一字域的状态值为所述第一字域所对应的多个候选状态值中的一个,所述多个候选状态值中的至少一个状态值对应两个或两个以上空间相关参数。
进一步地,所述空间相关参数包括:TCI状态或TCI状态ID,或者QCL信息,参考信号或参考信号索引。可选的,该参考信号与第一信道满足QCL关系。例如空间相关参数信息指示两个参考信号(reference signal,RS),分别为RS1和RS2。可以理解地,所述空间相关参数还可以通过其它特征参数指示UE,并用于接收第一信道,本申请对空间相关参数的具体形式不予限制。可选的,所述RS可以是空间相关信息(spatial relation info)。
可选的,所述第一信道包括PDSCH或PUSCH。
可选的,所述第一信道包括PUCCH或PDCCH。
可选的,本申请实施例中,对于下行信道传输,该空间相关参数为TCI状态或者QCL信息;对于上行信道传输,该空间相关参数为空间相关信息(spatial relation info)。
可选的,所述第一信令为DCI信令。进一步地,所述DCI信令的格式为DCI format1-1。
本实施例以空间相关参数为TCI状态ID进行举例,比如,一个空间相关参数为TCI状态ID表示可以为“TCI state ID a1”其中,a1为TCI状态ID的一个取值,另外,TCI状态ID的取值还可以是a2、a3、……a8,b1、b2、c1、c2等。
可选的,在本申请的各个实施例中,若以TCI状态ID来表示空间相关参数,则所述TCI状态ID a1可以表示为“TCI state ID a1”或者简写为“TCI ID a1”、“TCI a1”、“TCI 1”。
所述第一字域为TCI字域,可简化表示为“Ti字域”,所述第一字域可以对应多个状态值(value of TCI field),每个所述状态值可以对应一个或多个空间相关参数。参见上述表1,包括8个状态值,000至111,且每个状态值对应一个空间相关参数,比如TCI字域的状态值“000”对应的空间相关参数(TCI状态ID)为a1;“001”对应的空间相关参数(TCI状态ID)为a2,以此类推。
可选的,表1中示出的8个状态值,从000至111均为第一字域的候选状态值,且第一信令中携带的第一字域所对应的状态值为这8个候选状态值中的一个,比如第一字域的状态值为“000”。所述多个候选状态值中的至少一个状态值对应两个或两个以上空间相关参数,可以理解为,8个候选状态值中至少有一个候选状态值,比如“000”分别与两个或两个以上的TCI状态ID具有对应关系,例如,000对应TCI state ID a1和000对应TCI state ID b1,其中,a1和b1分别位于不同的空间相关参数集合。
可选的,一种可能的实现中,第一信令中第一字域的状态值对应一个空间相关参 数。比如状态值“000”对应TCI状态ID a1。
可选的,另一种可能的实现中,第一信令中第一字域的状态值对应两个或两个以上空间相关参数,比如状态值“000”对应TCI状态ID c1和c9。

可选的,所述第二信令为RRC信令,或RRC信令和MAC-CE信令。
可选的,所述第二信令可以在步骤101之前执行或者在步骤101之后执行,本申请对此不进行限定。
其中,所述第二信令通过基站配置并下发给UE。第二信令用于指示接收PDSCH候选空间相关参数,如TCI状态表格或TCI状态集合。比如上面表2,示出了一种第一字域的候选状态值与TCI状态ID之间的对应关系。
基站通过第二信令还可以配置其它空间相关参数集合,如下表3所示,
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000003
表3
表3示出了8个TCI字域的候选状态值和每个候选状态值所对应的TCI状态ID,其中,每个候选状态值对应一个空间相关参数(TCI state ID b),且从b1至b8这8个空间相关参数组成一个集合称为空间相关参数集合。
结合上述表2和表3,基站通过第二信令配置了两个空间相关参数集合,M=2,其中第1个空间相关参数集合中包括TCI状态ID从a1至a8共8个空间相关参数,即 第一空间参数集合{TCI a1,TCI a2,……,TCI a8};第2个空间相关参数集合中包括TCI状态ID从b1至b8共8个空间相关参数,即第二空间相关参数集合{TCI b1,TCI b2,……,TCI b8};可以理解地,还可以包括第三、第四空间或者更多的空间相关参数集合,本实施例对此不一一举例。
可选的,所述空间相关参数“集合”可以称为空间相关参数“表”(Table)或者空间相关参数“清单”(List)。
可选的,本实施例中,M=2,i=1或2,且第1个空间相关参数集合中包括8个空间相关参数,第2个空间相关参数集合中也包括8个空间相关参数。并且,每个空间相关参数a1至a8,或b1至b8均与TCI字域的候选状态值从000至111之间存在对应关系。
另外,本实施例中,配置的两个空间相关参数集合用于接收来自不同TRP的数据,或者接收来自一个TRP的不同天线面板的数据,或者接收来自不同方向的数据。
比如一个空间相关参数集合{TCI a1,TCI a2,……,TCI a8}中用于指示TRP1发送的信息的空间相关参数,另一个空间相关参数集合{TCI b1,TCI b2,……,TCI b8}中用于指示TRP2发送的信息的空间相关参数。
可选的,本实施例中,将上述两个空间相关参数集合均用于指示单个TRP发送信息的空间相关参数的情形,称为“单TRP传输”或“single TRP传输”或“单站传输”。
可选的,所述M个空间相关参数集合可以通过一个第二信令配置下来,也可以通过多个第二信令配置下来。
可选的,所述第二信令为DCI信令。
步骤103:基站发送第三信令。
可选的,所述第三信令为RRC信令和/或MAC-CE信令。
所述第三信令中包括第二信息,所述第二信息用于配置有关所述第一信息与所述一个或多个空间相关参数之间的对应关系。其中,所述第二信息也可以是由协议预定义的。
进一步地,所述第二信息在协议预定义的情况下,基站可以不发送所述第三信令,所述第二信息由UE根据协议预定义生成。
其中,所述第一信息的值和/或第一信息指示的信息的值与第一空间相关参数中的一个或多个目标空间相关参数之间的对应关系,包括以下各种情况:
情况1:

其中,所述控制资源集合的标识还可以是控制资源集合的标识组或控制资源集合的标识集合,其中所述CORESET组中包括至少一个CORESET ID。比如对于CORESET组1,所述CORESET组1中包括CORESET ID1、CORESET ID2等。
情况3:
在所述第一信息为第一信令所在的搜索空间集合标识的情况下,所述第二信息用于配置所述搜索空间集合标识与空间相关参数之间的对应关系。比如,search space ID1(第一取值)对应P个第二空间相关参数,例如TCI list1或TCI table1{TCI a1,TCI a2,……,TCI a8},search space ID2(第二取值)对应Q个第三空间相关参数,例如TCI list2或TCI table2{TCI b1,TCI b2,……,TCI b8}。
此外,还可以包括:
情况4:

情况6:
所述第一信令中的第二字域为频域资源配置字域,或者所述第二字域为时域资源配置字域;所述第一信息为第一信令中的至少一个第二字域指示的资源(第一资源和第二资源)的情况下,所述第二信息用于配置所述资源与空间相关参数之间的对应关系。比如,第一资源对应TCI a1;第二资源对应TCI b1。
需要说明的是,还可以包括其他对应关系,比如第一信令中的至少一个第二字域指示的面板的标识与所述一个或多个空间相关参数的对应关系等,本申请实施例对此不予限制。
应理解,本申请中,第一信息还可以是其他信息,如传输方式指示信息等,任何简单扩展或简单组合的方式均在本申请的保护范围内。第一信息可以通过第一信令、第二信令、第三信令中的一个或多个信令指示,还可以是其他信令指示。
可选地,对应关系可以包括以下对应关系中的一种:
(1)一个CDM组标识/CORESET ID/search space ID/天线面板ID关联一个至多个空间相关参数或空间相关参数集合;例如CDM组标识00可以对应TCI table1和TCI table2;
(2)一个空间相关参数清单或空间相关参数集合关联至少一个CDM组标识/CORESET ID/search space ID/天线面板ID;例如TCI list1关联的CORESET ID有00,或00和01。
可以理解地,不同的空间相关参数集合可以包含相同的空间相关参数,例如TCI table1和TCI table2中都包括空间相关参数TCI a1。
此外,如果步骤102和步骤103均为基站通过信令配置,那么基站在步骤102中发送的第二信令和步骤103中发送的第三信令可以是同一个信令,其基站配置和发送信令的时间可以是同时配置,也可以不同时配置,本申请对基站配置的具体时间的先后顺序不做限定。对第一信令、第二信令和第三信令先后发送的时间顺序也不做限定。
步骤104:UE接收基站发送的至少一个信令。
其中,所述至少一个信令包括前述基站发送的所述第一信令、所述第二信令和/或所述第三信令。
可选的,在UE和基站预先约定所述第二信息所指示或包括的对应关系的情况下,可以不接收所述第三信令,此时,步骤104中UE仅接收第一信令和第二信令。例如,在协议中规定第二信息所指示或包括的对应关系。
步骤105:UE获取所述第一空间相关参数中的一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
所述获取可以理解为,UE在第一空间相关参数中确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
具体地,在一种可能的实现方式中,步骤105包括:根据第一信息确定所述一个或多个空间相关参数。更具体地对该步骤的确定过程将会在后面的实施例四中详细介绍,此处暂不做说明。
可选的,在另一种可能的实现方式中,步骤105包括:根据第一信息以及第二信息确定所述一个或多个空间相关参数。
进一步地,如图5所示,根据第一信息以及第二信息确定所述一个或多个目标空间相关参数具体包括:
步骤1051:UE根据所述至少一个信令确定目标空间相关参数集合。
进一步地,根据上述第二信令配置的M个空间相关参数集合,第三信令中携带的第二信息内容确定所述目标空间相关参数的过程如下:
第1步,UE接收第二信令配置的两个空间相关参数集合。
可选的,在一种可能的场景中,M=2,表2所示空间参数集合{TCI a1,TCI a2,……,TCI a8}中的空间相关参数均用于指示来自同一个TRP的信息的空间相关参数,比如TPR1;表3所述的空间参数集合{TCI b1,TCI b2,……,TCI b8}可用于指示来自另一个TRP的信息的空间相关参数,比如TPR2。
第2步,UE获取第一信息,以及所述第一信息与至少一个空间相关参数或空间相关参数集合之间的对应关系。可选的,所述对应关系包括以上情况1至情况5中的一 种或多种。
应理解,本申请中,第一信息还可以是其他信息,如传输方式指示信息等,任何简单扩展或简单组合的方式均在本申请的保护范围内。第一信息可以通过第一信令、第二信令、第三信令中的一个或多个信令指示,还可以是其他信令指示。
第3步,UE根据第三信令中的第二信息确定第2步中有效的空间相关参数集合,并将该有效的空间相关参数集合作为所述目标相关参数集合。
步骤1052:UE根据所述第一信令中所述第一字域的状态值,在所述目标空间相关参数集合中确定所述一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
所述第一字域的状态值为上述表2或表3中的“value of TCI field”的任意一个,在目标相关参数集合确定的情况下,根据所述表2或表3的对应关系,能够确定出其中一个TCI字域的状态值所对应的TCI状态ID。
例如,在所述第一字域的状态值为“000”时,对应的TCI状态ID值为a1。
步骤106:UE根据所述一个或多个目标空间相关参数接收所述第一信道。
UE使用TCI状态ID a1接收PDSCH。具体地,所述接收PCSCH的传输可与现有技术相同,本实施例对此不做详细说明。
下面对本实施例对上述步骤1051和步骤1052的具体实现过进行说明。首先,对于上述步骤103中的各种不同情况,可以采用以下处理方式:
(1)针对上述“情况1”的确定方法。
基站配置DMRS port CDM group和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系,
当DMRS类型(DMRS type)为1时,UE最多被指示2个DMRS port CDM group,其关联关系如下表4所示:
DMRS port CDM group取值 TCI清单/表
00 TCI list 1{TCI a1,TCI a2,…,TCI a8}/TCI table 1
01 TCI list 2{TCI b1,TCIb2,…,TCI b8}/TCI table 2
表4
当DMRS类型(DMRS type)为2时,UE最多被指示3个DMRS port CDM group,其关联关系如下表5所示:
DMRS port CDM group取值 TCI清单/表
00 TCI list 1{TCI a1,TCI a2,…,TCI a8}/TCI table 1
01 TCI list 2{TCI b1,TCIb2,…,TCI b5}/TCI table 2
10 TCI list 3{TCI b6,TCI b7,…,TCI b16}
表5
可选地,DCI信令中还包括传输块(transport block)字域,用于指示CW(codeword)信息(如传输的CW的个数等)。
可选地,DCI信令中还包括天线端口(antenna port)字域,用于指示DMRS端口信息,一种可能的对应关系如图6所示或参考38.212中的表。
在步骤1501中,UE先根据antenna port值和如图6所示的对应关系确定DMRS端口号,再根据所述DMRS端口号确定该DMRS端口号所属的DMRS端口CDM组,然后根据该DMRS端口CDM组确定当前TCI字域指示的有效TCI集合或表/清单,作为所述目标空间相关参数集合。
例如,UE获取第一信令中的第二字域,所述第二字域为天线端口(antenna port)字域,根据该天线端口字域指示的天线端口值(antenna port value),比如天线端口值为2,以及图6所示的对应关系,确定天线端口值2所对应的DMRS port为(0,1);再确定DMRS port(0,1)所属的CDM group。
例如:协议中预定义的DMRS port的CDM group分组的情况如下:
DMRS type 1(支持最多8个port):DMRS port{0,1,4,5}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,6,7}属于CDM group 1;
DMRS type 2(支持最多12个port):DMRS port{0,1,6,7}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,8,9}属于CDM group 1,DMRS port{4,5,10,11}属于CDM group 2。
则在一种可能的实现方式中,UE根据DMRS端口号(0,1)可以判断出其可以属于DMRS type1或者DMRS type2的CDM group 0,再根据RRC信令的DMRS downlink Config确定DMRS的类型,比如属于DMRS type1,则UE确定天线端口值2所对应的DMRS port CDM group属于DMRS type1的CDM group 0,即确定了上述表4和表5中的表4为有效的关联关系表。然后再根据CDM group 0二进制表示“00”确定第一空间相关参数为“00”所对应的TCI list 1或TCI table 1{TCI a1,TCI a2,…,TCI a8}。
可选的,所述TCI list 1或TCI table 1也称目标相关参数集合。
最后,在步骤1052中,UE根据所述第一信令中所述第一字域的状态值,在所述目标空间相关参数集合中确定所述目标空间相关参数。
例如UE获取第一信令的第一字域指示的状态值为“00”,则在所述目标空间相关参数集合TCI list 1或TCI table 1中查找“00”所对应的TCI state ID为a1,进而确定所述第一空间相关中的一个空间相关参数a1为所述目标空间相关参数,UE使用TCI状态ID a1接收PDSCH。
(2)针对上述“情况2”的确定方法。
基站配置CORESET ID和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系。
如表6所示,示出了一种CORESET ID和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系,该关联关系可以通过协议预定义。
CORESET ID取值 TCI list/TCI table
CORESET ID 1 TCI list 1{TCI a1,TCI a2,…,TCI a8}/TCI table 1
CORESET ID 2 TCI list 2{TCI b1,TCI b2,…,TCI b8}/TCI table 2
CORESET ID n TCI list 2{TCI b6,TCI b10,…,TCI b16}/TCI table X
表6
UE获取第一信令,根据所述第一信令确定第一信息,所述第一信息为第一信令所在的CORESET的标识(CORESET ID)。
上述步骤1051:UE根据至少一个信令确定目标空间相关参数集合,具体包括:UE根据第一信令所在的CORESET的标识和表6所示的关联关系确定当前第一字域所指示的TCI list或TCI table,并作为目标空间相关参数集合,该目标空间相关参数集合中所包含的空间相关参数为第一空间相关参数。
例如,当所述第一信令的第一字域所在的CORESET ID为1时,其关联的第一空间相关参数为TCI list 1或TCI table 1;当所述第一信令的第一字域所在的CORESET ID为2时,其关联的第一空间相关参数为TCI list 2或TCI table 2。本实施例中,设第一信令的第一字域所在的CORESET ID为2,则所述目标空间相关参数集合为TCI list2或TCI table 2,所述第一空间相关参数为{TCI b1,TCI b2,…,TCI b8}。
上述步骤1052具体包括:UE根据所述第一信令中所述第一字域的状态值,比如所述状态值为“001”,则在所述目标空间相关参数集合{TCI b1,TCI b2,…,TCI b8}中与TCI状态值“001”具有对应关系的TCI state ID为b2,即确定了TCI状态ID b2为目标空间相关参数。
(3)针对上述“情况3”的确定方法。
同理地,当第一信息为第一信令所在的搜索空间集合的标识时,需要基站配置search space ID和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系。
如表7所示,示出了一种search space ID和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系,该关联关系可以通过协议预定义。
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000004
表7
上述步骤1051,具体包括:UE根据第一信令所在的CORESET的标识的取值和表7所示的关联关系确定当前第一字域所指示的TCI list或TCI table,即为目标空间相关参数集合,该目标空间相关参数集合中所包含的空间相关参数为第一空间相关参数。
例如,本实施例中,设第一信令的第一字域所在的search spaceID为取值2,则所述目标空间相关参数集合为TCI list 2或TCI table 2,所述第一空间相关参数包括{TCI b1,TCI b2,…,TCI b4}或者{TCI b1,TCI b2,…,TCI b8}。
上述步骤1052具体包括:UE根据所述第一信令中所述第一字域的状态值,比如所述状态值为“001”,则在所述目标空间相关参数集合中与TCI状态值“001”具有对应关系的TCI状态ID为b2,即确定了TCI状态ID b2为目标空间相关参数。
(4)针对其它情况的确定方法。
情况4:在所述第一信息为第一信令中的至少一个第二字域指示的DMRS端口标识的情况下,以及,情况5:在所述第一信息为第一信令中的至少一个第二字域指示的码字信息的情况下,所述第二信息用于配置所述码字与空间相关参数之间的对应关系,UE确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数的过程将会在下面的实施例中详细说明。
本实施例提供的方法,终端通过接收基站发送的第一信令,所述第一信令的配置有第一字域的状态值,根据该状态值的指示,终端从候选的空间相关参数或空间相关参数集合中获取一个或多个目标空间相关参数,并利用该一个或多个目标空间相关参数接收信道,从而解决了多个DCI信令各调度一份数据,每份数据来自不同TRP的场 景时的空间相关参数的指示问题,以及一个DCI信令调度的数据来自不同TRP的场景时的QCL信息指示问题,或者多波束/多链路/多层传输时的QCL信息指示问题。
另外,本方法由于第一字域的多个候选状态值中至少有一个状态值对应两个或两个以上空间相关参数,所以相比于现有的一个状态值仅对应一个空间相关参数而言,增加了TCI信息配置的灵活性。并且配置有一个候选状态值对应多个空间相关参数的关联关系还可以节约指示开销,比如,原指示16种空间相关参数时需要占用4比特空间,例如“0000”,而采用本方法配置的16种对应关系仅需要3比特空间,所以本实施例提供的方法在保证了TCI信息指示的灵活度的同时,还能节省指示开销。
可以理解地,本申请的各个实施例仅仅例举了一个或多个空间相关参数为TCI状态的情形,还可以包括其它的目标空间相关参数,比如本实施例中所述的TCI状态,可以替换为QCL或者是与所述第一信道具有QCL关系的参考信号。例如,在本申请的各个实施例中,若UE获取第一信息确定了当前指示UE的QCL信息,且该QCL信息中包括两个参考信号RS,例如RS1和RS9,则所述目标空间相关参数为RS1和RS9,则UE根据RS1和RS9接收所述第一信道。
同理地,对于TCI状态而言,一个TCI ID中可以包括两个参考信号,比如RS1和RS2,分别用于指示不同波束的传输,可以针对单TRP或者多TRP的场景。
此外,可以理解地,所述预留是指所述天线端口值。DMRS端口号、DMRS CDM组的个数或码字个数等暂时不填充,待后续确定或设定时填充具体的数值,并且在填充具体数值之后可以根据对应关系确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
实施例二
本实施例与实施例一相似,区别在于,步骤102中基站发送的第二信令,该第二信令配置的M个空间相关参数集合中,至少有一个空间相关参数集合的至少两个空间相关参数对应第一字域的多个候选状态值中的至少一个状态值,比如TCI字域状态值“000”对应TCI状态ID为c1和c9。
在这种情况下,一个DCI调度的数据来自两个不同的TRP,即非相干联合发送(Non coherent joint transmission,NCJT)场景,在该场景下基站配置关联关系,以及UE确定目标空间相关参数的过程具体包括:
参见图7,步骤201:基站发送第一信令。
该步骤与前述实施例一的步骤101相同,此处不再赘述。
步骤202:所述基站发送第二信令。
其中,步骤202所述基站利用所述第二信令配置M个空间相关参数集合,所述M个空间相关参数集合中P个第二空间相关参数和Q个第三空间相关参数。进一步地,所述P个第二空间相关参数与第一取值之间具有对应关系,所述Q个第三空间相关参数与第二取值之间具有对应关系。
其中所述第一取值和所述第二取值为以下任意一种:第二字域所指示的DMRS端口号、或DMRS端口所属的组的标识、或码字信息;控制资源集合的标识;搜索空间集合的标识;或者天线面板标识。
例如,一种具体的配置方式如表8、表9和表10所示,其中,表8所示的8个(P=8)第二空间相关参数,这些空间相关参数TCI状态ID从a1至a8均用于指示来自TRP1 的波束传输;表9所示的8个(Q=8)第三空间相关参数,这些空间相关参数TCI状态ID从b1至b8均用于指示来自TRP2的波束传输;表10中示出了8组第四空间相关参数,且每组第四空间相关参数中包括两个TCI状态ID,可用于指示来自两个TRP的波束传输。

表8
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000006
表9
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000007
表10
可选的,在表8和表9的对应关系中,每个候选状态值所对应的TCI状态ID的个数可以是2个;如表10所示,一个候选状态值所对应的TCI状态ID的个数可以是2个,还可以是3个或者更多个,具体地个数可以由基站配置来决定。
本实施例中,对于包含如表10所示的一个候选状态值对应2个空TCI状态ID的情况,如何选择目标空间相关参数的方法进行说明。
具体地,本实施例基站根据第二信令配置的M个空间相关参数集合有3个,M=3,分别是:8个第二空间相关参数组成的空间相关参数集合{TCI a1,TCI a2,……TCI a8},如表8所示,对应单个TRP1的空间相关参数指示信息;8个第三空间相关参数组成的空间相关参数集合{TCI b1,TCI b2,……TCI b8},如表9所示,对应单个TRP2的空间相关参数指示信息;另外还有8组第四空间相关参数组成的空间相关参数集合{TCI  c1+c9,TCI c2+c10,……,TCI c8+c6},如表10所示,对应两个TRP的空间相关参数指示信息。
可选的步骤,步骤203:所述基站发送第三信令。
步骤204:UE接收基站发送的至少一个信令,所述至少一个信令包括第一信令、第二信令和/或第三信令。
所述步骤203和步骤204与上述的实施例一的步骤103和步骤104相同,此处不再赘述。
步骤205:所述UE在第一空间相关参数中确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数,包括:
根据上述情况1、情况2和情况3,具体确定过程如下:
(1)针对上述“情况1”的确定方法。
一种可能的实现方式包括:
所述第一空间相关参数中包括:一个第二空间相关参数(TCI a1)和一个第三空间相关参数(TCI b1)和一组第四空间相关参数(TCIc1+c9)。
在单个TRP1的传输场景下,根据transport block字域和天线端口字域来确定所述目标空间相关参数:
具体地,如果UE解析码字个数为1或者为2(1个CW或2个CW),天线端口字域的值为0至3,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port CDM group标识的取值为第一取值“00”,则所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数,例如TCI a1。
在单个TRP2的传输场景下,根据transport block字域和天线端口字域来确定所述目标空间相关参数。
具体地,如果UE解析码字个数为1或者为2(1个CW或2个CW),天线端口字域为0至3,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port CDM group标识的取值为第二取值“01”,所述目标空间相关参数为第三空间相关参数,例如TCI b1。
在Multi TRP的传输场景下,根据transport block字域和天线端口字域来确定所述目标空间相关参数。
具体地,如果UE解析码字个数为2(2个CW),天线端口字域为4至31时,如DMRS port CDM group标识的取值个数大于1的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第四空间相关参数,例如TCIc1和c9。
进一步地详细说明。
基站配置DMRS端口所属的CDM组的标识的取值和TCI状态ID之间的关联关系,其中,所述DMRS端口所属的CDM组的标识可以通过DMRS port CDM group来表示,比如以二进制“0/1”来表示DMRS port CDM group和TCI state ID/TCI table的关联关系,如下表11和表12所示,对于单个TRP的关系。
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000008
表11
参见表11,当DMRS类型(DMRS type)为1时,UE最多被指示2个DMRS port CDM group。其中,“00”表示所述第一取值,“01”表示所述第二取值,且该第一取值对应第二个空间相关参数,包括TCI a1至a8,可选的,将这些关联的第二空间相关参数所组成的集合表示为“TCI list x1”或“TCI table 1”。
同理地,“01”表示所述第二取值,且该第二取值对应第三个空间相关参数,包括的空间相关参数有TCI b1至b8。可选的,将这些关联的第三空间相关参数所组成的集合表示为“TCI list x2”或“TCI table 2”。
需要说明的是,对于“TCI list x”和“TCI table”之间的关系,“TCI list x”可以是“TCI table”中的一个子集,或者与“TCI table”相同,或者与TCI table中的TCI ID有部分交集,本申请对此不予限制。
另外,所述关联关系还可以如表12所示,表12示出了用于多TRP传输场景下的DMRS port CDM group取值与一个或多个空间相关参数TCI ID/TCI table之间的对应关系。
DMRS port CDM group取值 TCI清单/表
00 TCI list x1{TCI c1,TCI c2,…,TCI c8}
01 TCI list x2{TCI c9,TCI c10,…,TCI c16}
表12
同理地,当DMRS类型(DMRS type)为2时,所述基站配置的UE最多被指示3个取值与TCI状态ID之间的对应关系,即除了所述第一取值和所述第二取值之外,还包括第三取值。可选的,所述第三取值为“10”。
表13和表14分别示出了对于单TRP和多TRP场景下,DMRS类型为2时的DMRS port CDM group取值与各个空间相关参数之间的关系关系。
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000009
表13
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000010
表14
具体过程包括:
步骤2051:UE根据第一信令中的第二字域确定DMRS端口组的标识;
步骤2052:所述UE根据所述DMRS端口组的标识确定关联的一个或多个空间相关参数,作为候选的空间相关参数;
步骤2053:所述UE根据第一信令的第一字域确定第一空间相关参数;
步骤2054:所述UE在所述候选空间相关参数和所述第一空间相关参数中取交集,得到的一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
例如,在步骤2051,UE获取第一信令中的一个第二字域为天线端口字域,其中,该天线端口字域的取值(value)为10,根据上述实施例一中的表5所示,该天线端口值10所对应的DMRS端口号为0-3。
在步骤2052,根据协议中预定义的DMRS port的CDM分组的情况确定端口号0-3所在的CDM group:
比如,协议规定:
DMRS type 1(支持最多8port):DMRS port{0,1,4,5}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,6,7}属于CDM group 1;
对于DMRS type 2(支持最多12port):DMRS port{0,1,6,7}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,8,9}属于CDM group 1,DMRS port{4,5,10,11}属于CDM group 2。
则UE根据上述规定确定DMRS端口号为0-3属于CDM group 0或1。进一步地,所述CDM group 0或1是属于DMRS type 1还是2,可以通过基站配置的DCI来确定。例如基站通知UE当前的DMRS type为2,支持多TRP的数据传输,则所述UE根据上述表14的对应关系,可以确定CDM group 0所关联的候选空间相关参数为TCI list x1{TCI c1,TCI c2,…,TCI c8},CDM group 1所关联的候选空间相关参数为TCI list x2{TCI c9,TCI c10,…,TCI c12}。
其中,CDM group“0”通过二进制“00”配置在表14的关联关系中,CDM group“1”通过二进制“01”配置在表14的关联关系中。
在步骤2053:所述UE根据第一信令的第一字域确定第一空间相关参数。比如所述第一信令中的第一字域为“000”,则通过上述表10的对应关系,确定状态值“000”所对应的第一空间相关参数为:TCI stateID c1和c9。
在步骤2054:所述UE取候选空间相关参数TCI list x1{TCI c1,TCI c2,…,TCI c8}、{TCI c9,TCI c10,…,TCI c12}和第一空间相关参数TCI c1、c9之间的交集,公共的空间相关参数为c1和c9,则UE确定该第一字域的状态值000所指示的目标空间相关参数为TCI c1和c9。
需要说明的是,本实施例中,对上述步骤2051和步骤2053执行的先后顺序不做具体限制,即可以同时执行,也可以先后执行,比如先执行步骤2053,再执行步骤2051和2052。
可以理解地,本实施例中还可以通过DCI指示其它值来确定目标空间相关参数。比如,UE接收DCI信息中指示天线端口值(antenna port value)为2,UE确定该天线端口值为2时所对应的DMRS ports为(0,1),属于CDM group 0,且DMRS type1;所述UE根据CDM group 0确定使用表13所示的TCI list x1或者table 1,最后UE根据第一信令中第一字域状态值“000”所对应的TCI状态ID a1解析出所述目标空间相关参数为TCI a1。
步骤206:UE根据所述目标空间相关参数接收所述第一信道。
具体地,UE使用TCI状态ID c1接收CDM组0所对应的PCSCH数据,使用TCI  state ID c9接收CDM组1所对应的PCSCH数据。
或者,UE使用TCI状态ID a1接收PDSCH的数据。
可选的,对于上述其它情况下的目标空间相关参数的确定方法可以参见上述的实施例一的确定过程,本实施例对此不予限制。
本实施例提供的方法,对于一个DCI信令调度的数据来多个TRP的场景下,在不增加DCI比特开销的情况下,通过第一信令和第三信令来指示支持单TRP和多个TRP传输的目标空间相关参数,使得TCI信息具有较大的灵活性,同时不增加指示信息的开销。
可选的,在本实施例的一种可能的实现方式中,步骤202中,基站根据所述第二信令配置M个空间相关参数集合,还可以包括两个空间相关参数集合,M=2,例如下面的表15所示和上述表10所示,
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000011
表15
在表15中,指示的TCI字域的候选状态值包括“000”至“111”共8种状态值,分别对应8种TCI状态ID,其中TCI状态ID从a1至a4可以对应于TRP1的波束传输,TCI状态ID从b1至b4可以对应于TRP2的波束传输,具体地传输场景可以参见图2c。
具体地确定方式包括:所述第一空间相关参数中包括第二空间相关参数(TCIa1)和第三空间相关参数(TCIc1+c9)。
在单个TRP1的传输场景下,根据transport block字域和天线端口字域来确定所述目标空间相关参数:
具体地,如果UE解析码字个数为1或者为2(1个CW或2个CW),天线端口字域的值为0至3,天线端口字域指示的DMRS port CDM group标识的取值个数为1个,则所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数,例如TCI a1。
在Multi TRP的传输场景下,根据transport block字域和天线端口字域来确定所述目标空间相关参数。
具体地,如果UE解析码字个数为2(2个CW),天线端口字域为4至31时,如CDM group大于1的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第四空间相关参数,例如TCIc1+c9。
需要说明的是,本申请的各个实施例中根据目标空间相关参数的不同形式,指示的接收信道的方式会有不同。除了本实施例中指示的根据TCI状态ID来接收第一信 道之外,还可以通过以下方式:
一种可能方式是,所述第一空间相关参数为TCI状态ID,该TCI状态ID中指示一个或多个同位置假设(Quasi-collocation,QCL)信息时,UE根据一个或者多个QCL信息可以确定目标空间相关参数,比如TCI状态ID中包括QCL1和QCL2,其中,所述QCL1和QCL2可以分别对应TRP1和TRP2,则UE可以按照所述QCL1和QCL2的指示来接收对应信道的数据。
另一种可能方式是,所述目标空间相关参数为QCL信息所指示的K个RS中一个或多个RS,比如QCL信息指示两个空间相关参数分别是RS1和RS2,对应来自两个不同的TRP传输,则UE可以根据该QCL信息完成接收侧波束赋形或接收处理过程。应理解地,UE可以根据QCL信息指示的源参考信号的接收波束信息,进而接收目标参考信号。
现有协议中的TCI、QCL、RS的配置方式:一个TCI ID指示一个TCI state的信息如下:
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000012
对于每个TCI指示一个QCL信息,该信息可以为多种类型中的一种或多种,每种类型的QCL信息中仅包括一个参考信号。例如QCL信息中指示某一个TCI ID,则本申请实施例中的TCI ID a1可以为参考信号RS1。
另外,还可以扩展到多个空间相关参数的情况:
例如方式1:一个TCI字域的一个状态值关联两个TCI ID,每个TCI ID指示的TCIstate与现有协议相同。
方式2:一个TCI字域的一个状态值关联一个TCI ID,该TCI ID指示的TCI state包括一个QCL信息,该QCL信息可以为上述QCL类型A至类型D中的一种或多种,且每种类型的QCL信息中包括多个参考信号。
方式3:一个TCI字域的一个状态值关联一个TCI ID,该TCI ID指示的TCI state包括两个QCL信息,该QCL信息可以为上述QCL类型A至类型D中的一种或多种, 且每种类型的QCL信息中仅包括一个参考信号。
实施例三
本实施例还提供了另一种信息传输方法,用于指示在一个DCI调度的数据来自单个或多个TRP的场景下,选择当前调度的目标空间相关参数。
具体地,本实施例所提供的方法可以应用于动态选择发射节点(Dynamic point selection,DPS)、NCJT的技术场景下。且一个DCI信令调度一份数据,该份数据可以来自不同TRP,即NCJT传输方式;或者一个DCI信令调度一份数据可能来自于一个TRP,或者来自于另一个动态的TRP。
本实施例中针对于上述实施例一和二的“情况1”进行说明,与上述实施例的区别在于基站配置的M个空间相关参数集合中,每个第一字域的候选状态值可以指示至少一个TCI状态ID,且所述至少一个TCI状态ID可以支持单个TRP或者多个TRP。
例如,上述实施例一中的步骤102或实施例二中的步骤202,基站发送第二信令,所述第二信令用于指示PDSCH候选QCL的TCI state表格或TCI state集合,本实施例中配置的M个空间相关参数集合中,M=1,如表16所示,
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000013
表16
表16示出了一个每个TCI字域的候选状态值与两个TCI ID之间的关联关系,该两个TCI ID可以支持单个TRP或多个TRP的波束传输。
此外,还包括一个TCI字域的候选状态值与一个TCI ID的关联关系,即直接指示一个TCI ID的情况,比如用于支持来自一个TRP的两个DMRS port所属的CDM组共用一个QCL。
需要说明的是,该关联关系可以是直接的关联关系,也可以是间接的关联关系。其中,所述间接的关联关系是指通过其他的一个或多个中间量获得的关联关系,比如中间量是TRP ID或cell ID等。
然后,UE接收来自基站发送的至少一个信令,包括第一信令、第二信令和第三信令,所述第一信令和第三信令的内容与前述实施例一和二相同,此处不详细赘述。
所述UE确定一个或多个空间相关参数,并作为所述目标空间相关参数的过程如下:
基站通过第三信令配置DMRS port CDM group和TCI状态ID的关联关系,可选的,该关联关系也可以是协议预定义的,如下表17和表18所示(这个关联关系包括但不限于下表中的体现方式)。
当DMRS type 1时,UE最多被指示2个DMRS port CDM group取值,其关联关系如下表所示:
DMRS port CDM group取值 TCI清单/表
00 TCI list C1{TCI c1,TCI c2,…,TCI c8}
01 TCI list C2{TCI c9,TCI c10,…,TCI c16}
表17
当DMRS type 2时,UE最多被指示3个DMRS port CDM group,其关联关系如下表所示:
DMRS port CDM group取值 TCI清单/表
00 TCI list 1{TCI c1,TCI c2,…,TCI c8}
01 TCI list 2{TCI c9,TCI c10,…,TCI c12}
10 TCI list 3{TCI c13,TCI c14,…,TCI c16}
表18
可选的,上表配置的关联关系中,每个DMRS port CDM group关联的某些TCI ID可以是相同的,如:TCI c1=TCI c12。
可选的,上表中的每个DMRS port CDM group关联的任意TCI ID均不相同。
可选的,上表中的每个DMRS port CDM group关联的TCI ID个数可以大于TCI table关联的TCI ID数。
可选的,基站发送第三信令(DCI信令)中包括TCI字域,用于指示接收数据的波束信息。
可选的,所述第三信令可以是所述第一信令。
可选的,所述DCI信令(比如第三信令)中还包括第二字域,比如transport block字域,用于指示码字(codeword,CW)信息,例如码字个数。
可选的,所述DCI信令中的第二字域还包括antenna port字域,用于指示DMRS port信息,如上述实施例一的表5所示。
具体地,确定过程包括:
UE根据协议预定义的DMRS port和DMRS port CDM组的关系与第三信令中的至少一个第二字域,确定当前DCI调度的PDSCH的DMRS port所在的CDM group号Z;UE根据第一信令中的TCI字域的状态值X,以及状态值X对应至少一个空间相关参数,表16所示的关联关系,确定状态值X所对应的TCI ID X1和TCI ID X2;UE再根据表17或表18的关联关系及CDM group号Z,确定该CDM group Z关联TCI ID X2,则UE确定有效TCI ID为X2,最后所述UE根据TCI ID X2接收PDSCH。
在一具体的实例中,比如,第三信令中的第二字域携带的antenna port字域value为2,第一信令中的第一字域的状态值为0,二进制表示为“000”,则根据上述关系确定该antenna port value2所对应的DMRS端口号为(0,1)。
进一步地,根据协议中预定义的DMRS端口号的CDM group分组的情况:
DMRS type 1(支持最多8port):DMRS port{0,1,4,5}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,6,7}属于CDM group 1;
DMRS type 2(支持最多12port):DMRS port{0,1,6,7}属于CDM group 0,DMRS port{2,3,8,9}属于CDM group 1,DMRS port{4,5,10,11}属于CDM group 2。
UE确定当前DMRS port(0,1)属于CDM组0,UE根据CDM组0确定使用TCI table解析该状态值关联到TCI state ID为c1,UE使用TCI ID c1对应的波束接收 PDSCH。antenna port字域指示的DMRS port在CDM组1时,确定UE使用的TCI ID c9对应的波束接收PDSCH。
表20示出了一种天线端口字域指示的DMRS port在CDM组0和CDM组1时,确定TCI ID为c1+c9。

表20
本实施例提供的方法,在一个DCI调度的数据来自不同的TRP的情况下,UE结合基站半静态配置的第一字域的候选状态值与一个或多个空间相关参数集合的关联关系,通过第一信令的至少一个天线端口字域或传输块字域,及DMRS端口的CDM组与TCI ID之间的关系,获取当前有效的目标TCI状态ID,并作为目标空间相关参数来传输波束。本方法在保证了TCI信息指示灵活度的同时,还不增加指示信息的开销。
实施例四
本实施例提供的方法区别于上述的实施例,主要是步骤105中,UE确定第一空间相关参数中的一个或多目标个空间相关参数,需要根据第一信息来确定所述目标空间相关参数。
本实施例应用的技术场景包括但不限于DPS场景、NCJT场景。
下面就本实施例提供的方法进行详细说明。
所述方法包括:
UE接收基站发送的至少一个信令,所述至少一个信令包括第一信令、第二信令和第三信令。
其中,所述第一信令中包括第一字域,所述第一字域包括目标状态值,该目标状态值用于指示接收第一信道的第一空间相关参数。可选的,所述第一字域为TCI字域,所述目标状态值为:000、001、010、011、100、101、110、111中的任意一个。
另外,所述第一信令中还包括第一信息,所述第一信息为第一信令的至少一个第二字域。可选的,所述第二字域为传输块(transport block)字域或天线端口(antenna port)字域。
进一步地,所述传输块字域用于确定当前第一信令调度的PDSCH包含的码字(codeword,CW)个数信息。
可选的,所述天线端口字域和所述码字个数信息可用于确定当前第一信令调度的PDSCH是来自单个TRP还是多个TRP。
进一步地,所述UE根据所述第一信息确定所述第一空间相关参数中的一个或多 个目标空间相关参数,包括以下各种可能的实现方式:
第一种可能的实现方式,
参见表21,所述第一空间相关参数中包括第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数。对于基站配置的一个TCI字域的状态值对应两个TCI状态ID的情况,并规定:
在码字个数为1的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数;和/或,
在码字个数为2的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数,其中第一个CW根据第二空间相关参数接收,第二个CW根据第三空间相关参数接收。
例如,第一信令中的TCI的状态值为“000”,当UE根据传输传输块字域解析CW个数为1时,默认使用第二空间相关参数TCI c1来接收第一信道。当CW个数为2时,默认第二空间相关参数TCI c1来接收第一信道,并使用第三空间相关参数TCI c5来接收所述第一信道,此时,所述目标空间相关参数为TCI c1和c5。
UE解析的TCI ID值如下表21所示,其中该TCI ID用于接收PDSCH:
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000015
表21
其中,表21中,TCI strate ID c1简写为“TCI c1”,CW1表示第一个码字,CW2表示第二个码字。
第二种可能的实现方式,
对于基站配置的一个TCI字域的候选状态值对应两个TCI状态ID的情况,且在两个码字针对于单个TRP和多个TRP(NCJT)的场景时,规定:
在码字个数为1的情况下,则确定所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数;
在码字个数为2的情况下,天线端口字域取值为0至3(单TRP)时,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第二空间相关参数接收;
在码字个数为2的情况下,天线端口字域取值为4至31(multi TRP)时,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第二空间相关参数接收。
例如,当码字个数为1时,默认使用第一信令中的TCI字域指示的TCI状态值“000”关联的TCI ID中的TCI c1,所述TCI c1为所述目标空间相关参数;
当码字个数为2时,根据天线端口字域指示的天线端口号来确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数。
UE解析的TCI ID值如下表22所示,其中该TCI ID用于接收PDSCH:
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000016
表22
其中,对于多个TRP(比如NCJT)和单个TRP场景的的区分可以采用如下方式,结合图8例如:
DMRS类型1,最大长度(max length)为2,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{4-31}中的至少一个;
DMRS类型2,最大长度(max length)为1,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{2-31}中的至少一个;
DMRS类型2,最大长度(max length)为2,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{6-63}中的至少一个,可表示NCJT场景。
其它的状态可以表示单TRP场景。
可选的,本实现方式还可以另一种替代的实现方式,具体包括:
在码字个数为1的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第一空间相关参数,例如TCI c6;
在码字个数为2的情况下,天线端口字域取值为0至3(single TRP)的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第二空间相关参数接收;
码字个数为2,天线端口字域取值为4至31(multi TRP)的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第三空间相关参数接收。
第三种可能的实现方式:
所述UE根据第一信令的两个第二字域来确定所述第一空间相关参数中的一个或多个空间相关参数,所述两个第二字域为天线端口字域和传输块字域。
具体地,包括:UE根据所述传输块字域确定根据CW个数信息,然后根据所述天线端口字域,以及上述实施例中的第二信息,所述第二信息用于配置有关所述第一信息与所述一个或多个空间相关参数之间的对应关系,确定所述目标空间相关参数。
可选的,本方法适用于限制NCJT是不同CW的场景。
具体地,所述第一空间相关参数中包括第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数(TCI5)。
例如,当码字个数为1的情况下,默认所有DMRS的天线端口都使用基站指示的TCI ID,不需要区分DMRS port CDM组,也即每个DMRS port所属的CDM组均使用基站指示的TCI ID接收信道,此时可以对应单TRP单波束传输场景。例如目标空间 相关参数为TCI c4。
当码字个数为2时,可以按照上述实施例三的方法解析和确定目标空间相关参数。
例如,当码字个数为2,DMRS CDM group标识第一取值00的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第二空间相关参数接收。
当码字个数为2时,DMRS CDM group标识第二取值01的情况下,所述目标空间相关参数为第三空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第三空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第三空间相关参数接收;
当码字个数为2时,DMRS CDM group标识包括第一取值00和第二取值01,所述目标空间相关参数为第二空间相关参数和第三空间相关参数,其中CW1根据第二个空间相关参数接收,CW2根据第三个空间相关参数接收。
例如:UE解析的TCI ID值如下表23所示,其中该TCI ID用于接收PDSCH:
Figure PCTCN2019114613-appb-000017
表23
进一步地,对于该方法还可以进一步地限定,在码字个数为2时,一个或多个空间相关参数TCI ID的确定方法,如图8所示,例如:
DMRS类型1,最大长度(max length)为2,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{4-31}中的至少一个;
DMRS类型2,最大长度(max length)为1,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{2-31}中的至少一个;
DMRS类型2,最大长度(max length)为2,天线端口(antenna port)字域值(value)为{6-63}中的至少一个,可表示NCJT场景。
本实施例提供了三种根据第一信息确定目标空间相关参数的方法,UE先通过第二字域指示的传输块字域确定码字个数,再根据预先配置的每个码字与TCI ID之间的关联关系确定每个码字使用的TCI ID,进而使得UE无论在单TRP传输还是多个TRP的场景下,均能够快速的确定目标TCI ID,保证了在TCI信息指示灵活性的同时,不增加额外指示开销。
应理解,本申请中,第一信息还可以是其他信息,如传输方式指示信息等,任何简单扩展或简单组合的方式均在本申请的保护范围内。第一信息可以通过第一信令、第二信令、第三信令中的一个或多个信令指示,还可以是其他信令指示。
实施例五
本实施例提供了一种特殊的指示,关于于上述各个实施例,区别在于,对于特定范围的第一信令的第一字域中的状态值,指示特定的空间相关参数作为所述目标空间相关参数。
例如,所述第一字域的候选状态值包括第一范围和第二范围,
当所述第一字域的状态值为所述第一范围时,按照上述实施例一至四的方法确定目标空间相关参数;
当所述第一字域的状态值为所述第二范围时,确定所述目标相关参数为设定值。
例如,所述第一字域的状态值为从000至111共8个状态,其中,第一范围包括{000、001、010、011、100}共5个状态,所述第二范围包括{101、110、111}共3个状态。
则当所述第一字域的状态值为第一范围时,按照上述各个实施例的方法确定;当所述第一字域的状态值比如“101”为所述第二范围时,则设定所述目标空间相关参数为预设值TCI c4。
此外,当上述M=1时,也可以采用本实施例单独设定指示的方法确定。
需要说明的是,上述各个实施例中,UE根据第二信息配置有关第一信令的第一信息与一个或多个空间相关参数之间的对应关系时,例如,DMRS port所在的CDM group信息与TCI list或TCI table之间的对应关系时,通过天线端口字域确定DMRS端口号(DMRS port)可以是连续的,也可以是非连续的。且无论UE根据第一信息的天线端口字域解析出的DMRS端口号是否为连续的,均可以采用上述本实施例一至实施例三的方法得到所述目标空间相关参数。
例如,当UE通过传输块字域确定当前码字个数为2时,可以按照本实施例三的方法解析得到目标TCI ID。当所述码字个数为1时,需要进一步判断Number of DMRS CDM group,如果Number of DMRS CDM group为1,关联的DMRS port为(0,1),此时为连续的DMRS端口号;如果Number of DMRS CDM group为2,关联的DMRS port为(0,1,x….)、或(0,2)、或(0,2,4,6),此时为不连续的DMRS端口号,均可以按照实施例四的“第三种可能的实现方式”来确定和得到目标TCI ID。
可选地,所述第一字域除了用于指示当前DCI信令的目标状态值之外,还可以包括多个其它状态值,用于直接指示UE采用某一状态值解析其对应的TCI ID,该方式主要用于一个TRP对应多个beam传输PDSCH的场景。
可选的,所述状态值还可以称为状态位。
可选的,所述DMRS port所在的CDM group信息可以为pattern(MU信息)。其中,MU信息时不作NCJT,DMRS CDM group number>DMRS port所在CDM group个数时,不作NCJT。
可选的,在上述各个实施例中,所述DMRS端口CDM组(DMRS port CDM group)可以为天线面板(panel),则DMRS port CDM group的标识可以为panel ID。
可以理解的,本申请各个实施例中,所述天线面板也可以称为天线集合、无线电收发单元(tansceiver unit TXRU)(或称为无线电收发机组)、天线单元、天线群、水平天线集合、垂直天线集合、天线阵子、或天线端口集合等,本申请实施例并不限于此。
对应地,DMRS port CDM group与至少一个TCI ID之间的关联关系可以替换为panel ID与TCI ID的关联关系。可以理解地,相关的确定目标空间相关参数的方法与前述各个实施例一至三均相同,对此不详细赘述。
可选的,在上述实施例的另一种可能的实现中,当UE仅包括一个面板时,确定一个或多个目标空间相关参数时,UE还需要根据DMRS符号(symbol)个数以及各个信令中的信息来确定。例如,当DMRS symbol个数为1时,如果有两个或两个以上TCI ID同时指示UE接收第一信道,则此时UE在仅有一个面板情况下,只能支持其中一个TCI ID来进行波束传输。一种可能的确定方式是,UE默认所有DMRS port CDM group按照TCI状态指示的第一个CDM group所关联的TCI ID为所述目标空间相关参数;或者,在所有CDM group中port数最多的CDM group所关联的TCI ID为所述目标空间相关参数接收第一信道。
本申请实施例提供的信息传输方法,针对于不同的空间相关参数集合,基站通过DCI信令配置不同的关联关系,例如
A.基站根据第二信令配置M个空间相关参数集合,M≥1,其中包括每个第一字域的一个候选状态值与一个或多个TCI状态ID之间的映射关系。
B.UE根据第一信令中的至少一个第二字域,比如天线端口字域和传输块字域,以及所述天线端口字域指示的DMRS端口CDM组的标识与M个空间相关参数集合之间的对应关系,确定第一空间相关参数中的目标空间相关参数。
其中,所述目标空间相关参数包括TCI状态ID和QCL等。
C.第一字域的一个候选状态值可以对应一个或多个空间相关参数,例如候选状态值0对应TCI a1(实施例一),或者对应TCI c1和c9(实施例二)。
D.一个DMRS端口CDM组标识的取值对应一个空间相关参数或空间相关参数集合,例如,DMRS port CDM group的第一取值“00”对应TCI list 1或TCI table 1,第二取值“01”对应TCI list 2或TCI table 2(实施例一)。
同理地,通过第三信令还配置,第一信令所在的CORESET ID标识,search space标识分别与一个空间相关参数或空间相关参数集合的关联关系,来匹配单TRP或多TRP的传输场景。
E.一个码字可以对应一个空间相关参数,例如第一个CW关联TCI ID1,第二个CW关联TCI ID2(实施例四)。
此外,本申请上述各个实施例还可以支持单TRP,单波束/链路的传输。
可选的,根据传输块字域指示的码字个数,可以直接或间接确定出第一空间相关参数中的目标空间相关参数,比如实施例四的三种具体实现方式。可以理解地,还可以包括其它的各种实现方式,例如根据传输块字域的取值,天线端口字域的取值,天线端口字域指示的信息的取值的不同,确定所述目标空间相关参数的方式不同,本申请对各种可能的方式不进行限制。
