Since the two terminal devices use the side link for communication, the two terminal devices can communicate normally regardless of whether the two terminal devices are simultaneously in the coverage of the PLMN.
- both terminal devices When two terminal devices communicate based on a sidelink (SL), both terminal devices need to generate a demodulation reference signal (DMRS).

- v ⁇ ⁇ 0, 1 ⁇ represents the sequence number in the group
- M SC represents the sequence length of the demodulation pilot reference signal
- N ZC represents the largest prime number smaller than M SC . Represents the round-down operator.
- Base sequence Perform a cyclic shift ⁇ to obtain the demodulation pilot reference signal, based on the base sequence
- the process of obtaining the demodulation pilot reference signal satisfies the following formula:
- ⁇ represents the subcarrier spacing configuration
- ⁇ represents the cyclic shift
- the demodulation pilot reference signal generated based on the finite values of u and v has a limited expression space.
- the demodulation pilot reference signal needs to have a larger expression space. Therefore, the method of obtaining the demodulated pilot reference signal based on the ZC sequence cannot be applied to a scenario where a large number of terminal devices communicate.
- the second method of generating DMRS In the cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) waveform design, the PN sequence is used to generate the demodulation pilot reference signal.

- the initial value of x 2 (n) (that is, c init ) satisfies the following formula:
- L represents the maximum number of broadcast signals in a preset time period.
- n hf represents half-frame indication.
- n hf 0, it means that the broadcast signal is sent in the first half of the current wireless frame;
- n hf 1, it means that the broadcast signal is sent in the second half of the current wireless frame.
- i SSB represents the lowest two bits of the broadcast signal times index in the period.
- i SSB represents the lowest three bits of the broadcast signal times index in the period.
- the initial value of the PN sequence needs to be obtained, and the initial value of the PN sequence is related to the demodulation pilot scrambling code (scrambling identifier, SCID) and cell identity configured by the higher layer. That is to say, the method of using the PN sequence to generate the demodulation pilot reference signal is mainly applied in the uplink and downlink communication scenarios between the base station and the terminal device.

- SCID demodulation pilot scrambling identifier
- the initial value of the sequence that is, the initial value of the m sequence (a PN sequence) of x 2 (n) cannot be obtained, and thus the DMRS cannot be generated, which affects normal communication between terminal devices.

Description
本申请要求于2019年04月02日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为201910263491.1、发明名称为“解调导频参考信号生成方法及装置”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。
本申请涉及通信技术领域,特别是V2X、智能驾驶、智能网联汽车等,尤其涉及一种解调导频参考信号生成方法及装置。
解调导频参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)通常可以用于物理上行共享信道(physical up share channel,PUSCH)和物理上行控制信道(physical up control channel,PUCCH)的相关解调。目前,可以通过指定序列生成DMRS。其中,作为一种生成DMRS的实现方式,通用移动通信技术的长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)中,对于离散傅里叶变换的正交频分复用(discrete fourier transform orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,DFT-OFDM)波形设计的信道,首先采用根序列u和v生成ZC序列(Zadoff-Chu sequence),并基于ZC序列得到DMRS的基序列
之后,对基序列
进行循环移位α,得到解调导频参考信号。其中,u表示组号,v表示序列号。通常,为了保证解调导频参考信号具备良好的相关性,u∈{0,1,2,···,29},v∈{0、1},也就是说,根序列u和v的取值数量有限,进而使解调导频参考信号的表达空间有限。同时,由于对基序列
进行循环移位α,也会影响解调导频参考信号的相关性。而在车与任何事物通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)的车联网技术中,车辆需要与外界的任何事物进行通信,也就意味着,V2X***需要大量互不相同(即互不相关)的DMRS,而基于ZC序列所生成的DMRS之间相关性可能较大,无法满足V2X***的实际应用需求。
作为另一种生成DMRS的实现方式,对于循环前缀正交频分复用(cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,CP-OFDM)波形设计的信道,采用伪噪声(pseudo noise,PN)序列生成DMRS。并且,PN序列的初始值均与高层配置的解调导频扰码(scrambling identifier,SCID)和小区标识有关。也就是说,这种方式主要应用于基站与终端装置之间的上、下行通信链路中,即应用于配置有小区标识的通信场景。而V2X***中,通信双方的终端装置可能处于同一小区覆盖范围内,也有可能处于不同小区覆盖范围内,或者均处于无移动网络覆盖范围。若终端装置处于无移动网络覆盖范围内,则很可能并未被配置小区标识,这样一来,终端装置无法基于PN序列得到DMRS,进而无法正常通信。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供一种解调导频信号处理方法及装置,能够在无网络覆盖时,保证终端装置之间正常通信。
为达到上述目的,本申请实施例采用如下技术方案:
第一方面,本申请提供一种解调导频参考信号生成方法,该方法可以由第一终端装置 执行。第一终端装置可以为终端设备,也可以为终端设备中的组件(比如芯片***)。该方法包括:第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值,并根据PN序列的初始值,生成第一解调导频参考信号,再向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号。其中,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。
本申请提供的解调导频参考信号生成方法,第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定PN序列的初始值,再根据PN序列的初始值,生成第一解调导频参考信号,并向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号。其中,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。相对于现有技术中,解调导频参考信号的生成过程均适用于配置小区标识的场景,解调导频参考信号的初始值均与高层配置的解调导频扰码和小区标识有关,对于处于未配置小区标识区域的终端装置则无法生成解调导频参考信号,无法保证两个终端装置之间直接通信。本申请实施例提供的解调导频参考信号生成方法在不同的信道类型中,结合不同的第一信息确定PN序列的初始值,进而生成向第二终端装置发送的第一解调导频参考信号,且第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。可见,所使用的第一信息与高层配置的解调导频扰码和小区标识无关,即使第一终端装置和第二终端装置均未处于配置小区标识的区域,也能够正常生成解调导频参考信号。
在一种可能的设计中,信道类型为数据信道,***时间信息包括第一***时间信息,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息。
第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值,包括:

如此,第一终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息,确定数据信道第一解调导频参考信号的初始值,可使每个第一终端装置所生成的数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号互不相同。如此,提高了不同终端装置数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号的区分度,进而降低不同终端装置之间的干扰。
在一种可能的设计中,本申请提供的解调导频参考信号生成方法还包括:

第一终端装置从控制信息中获取第一终端装置的标识,或

这里,第一终端装置基于***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值,进而生成控制信道的第一解调导频参考信号,发送给第二终端装置。在第二终端装置接收到来自不同第一终端装置控制信道的第一解调导频参考信号之后,可以获知不同的第一解调导频参考信号的子帧号和/或帧号。若某一第一解调导频参考信号的子帧号和/或帧号与第二终端装置自身的子帧号和/或帧号相同,则该第一解调导频参考信号的发送方与第二终端装置同步。如此,第二终端装置能够从多个第一终端装置中确定与自身同步的第一终端装置。也就提高了同步源(第一终端装置)的控制信道第一解调导频参考信号的区分度,降低干扰。
在一种可能的设计中,信道类型为广播信道,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引。
第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值,包括:
第一终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值,广播次数索引表示预定时间周期内广播信道广播消息次数的索引。
如此,第二终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引,确定广播信道第二解调导频参考信号的初始值,进而为本地端生成第二解调导频参考信号提供信息支持。
第二方面,本申请提供一种解调导频参考信号生成方法,该方法可以由第二终端装置执行。第二终端装置可以为终端设备,也可以为终端设备中的组件(比如芯片***)。该方法包括:第二终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值,并根据PN序列的初始值,生成第二解调导频参考信号。其中,第一解调导频参考信号和第二解调导频参考信号均用于信道估计。其中,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个,第一终端装置是向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号的终端装置。

参见图1、图2和图3,对采用侧行链路通信的两个终端装置(UE1和UE2)而言,可 能存在如下三种通信场景:第一,两个终端装置(UE1和UE2)均处于同一公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)(如PLMN1)覆盖范围内,如图1所示;第二,仅一个终端装置(UE1)处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)(如PLMN1)覆盖范围内,另一个终端装置(UE2)均处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)(PLMN1)覆盖范围外,如图2所示;第三,两个终端装置(UE1和UE2)均处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)(如PLMN1)覆盖范围外,两个终端装置所处的区域范围无预先配置的小区标识,如图3所示。其中,图1、图2和图3中的虚线椭圆区域均表示PLMN1的覆盖范围。由于两个终端装置之间采用侧行链路进行通信,因此,无论两个终端装置是否同时处于PLMN的覆盖范围内,均能够正常进行通信。
两个终端装置之间基于侧行链路(sidelink,SL)进行通信时,终端装置均需要生成解调导频参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)。在相关技术中存在两种DMRS的生成方法。
第一种生成DMRS的方法:在低峰均比(peak to average ratio,PAPR)的离散傅里叶变换正交频分复用(discrete fourier transform orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,DFT-OFDM)波形设计中,基于ZC序列生成解调导频参考信号。其中,解调导频参考信号的基序列
生成过程满足如下:
其中,δ表示子载波间隔配置,α表示循环移位。
综上,基于ZC序列得到解调导频参考信号时,需要三个参数:u,v,α。其中,u和v的取值范围有限,以保证解调导频参考信号之间具备良好的相关性。如此,基于有限取值的u和v所生成的解调导频参考信号的表达空间有限。而大量的终端装置之间进行通信时,则需要解调导频参考信号具备更大的表达空间。因此,基于ZC序列得到解调导频参考信号的方法无法适用于大量终端装置之间进行通信的场景。
第二种生成DMRS的方法:在循环前缀正交频分复用(cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,CP-OFDM)波形设计中,采用PN序列生成解调导频参考信号。其生成过程满足如下公式:
其中,r(n)表示解调导频参考信号,c(n)表示PN序列。
PN序列c(n)的生成过程满足如下公式:
c(n)=(x
1(n+N
c)+x
2(n+N
c))mod2 (7)
x
1(n+31)=(x
1(n+3)+x
1(n))mod2 (8)
x
2(n+31)=(x
2(n+3)+x
2(n+2)+x
2(n+1)+x
2(n))mod2 (9)
其中,N
c=1600,x
1(n)和x
2(n)表示两个m序列(一种PN序列)。每个m序列需要31个初始值。
x
1(n)的初始值是固定值。x

1(n)=0,n=1,2,…,30。
x
2(n)的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,c
init表示x
2(n)的初始值。而在不同的信道类型中,x
2(n)的初始值(即c
init)所满足的计算公式不同。
具体地,在新无线(new radio,NR)上行数据信道中,x
2(n)的初始值(即c
init)满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的符号个数,
表示一个无线帧的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中解调导频参考信号所在符号的索引,
表示高层配置的上行解调导频扰码标识(scrambling identity,SCID),n
SCID∈{0、1}。在高层配置x
2(n)的初始值,或下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)调度物理上行共享信道(physical up share channel,PUSCH)传输时,n
SCID=1。其他情况,n
SCID=0。
具体地,在新无线(new radio,NR)下行控制信道中,x
2(n)的初始值(即c
init)满足如下公式:
其中,
表示一个无线帧的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中解调导频参考信号所在符号的索引,N
ID∈{0,1,…,65535}表示高层配置的控制信道解调导频扰码标识。若未配置N
ID,也可由小区ID替代,此时,
具体地,在新无线(new radio,NR)广播信道中,x
2(n)的初始值(即c
init)满足如下公式:
当L=4时,
其中,n
hf表示半帧指示。n
hf=0,表示广播信号在当前无线帧的前半帧发送;n
hf=1,表示广播信号在当前无线帧的后半帧发送。i
SSB表示周期内广播信号次数索引的最低两个比特位。
综上,基于PN序列获取解调导频参考信号过程中,需要获取PN序列的初始值,而PN序列的初始值与高层配置的解调导频扰码(scrambling identifier,SCID)和小区标识有关,也就是说,使用PN序列生成解调导频参考信号的方法主要应用于基站与终端装置之间的上、下行通信场景中。对于直接通信的两个终端装置而言,可能存在一个终端装置处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)覆盖范围内,另一终端装置处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)覆盖范围外,即如图2所示的场景,也可能存在终端装置均处于公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)覆盖范围外,即如图3所示的场景。在上述图2和图3所示出的两种场景下,终端装置在生成DMRS过程中,由于无法获取高层配置的解调导频扰码(scrambling identifier, SCID)和小区标识,进而无法确定PN序列的初始值,也就是说,无法获取x
2(n)这一m序列(一种PN序列)的初始值,进而无法生成DMRS,影响终端装置之间的正常通信。
本申请实施例提供一种解调导频参考信号生成方法,该方法应用在终端装置生成解调导频参考信号的过程中。其中,终端装置之间可以采用侧行链路进行通信。
下面以第一终端装置向第二终端装置发送信息为例,说明第一终端装置和第二终端装置分别生成DMRS的方法。其中,第一终端装置作为发送端,参见图4,本申请实施例的DMRS生成方法包括如下步骤:
S401、第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,信道类型可以包括数据信道、控制信道和广播信道。
第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。第一终端装置可以从控制信道的控制信息中获取第一终端装置的标识,也可以从控制信息的校验信息中获取第一终端装置的标识,还可以预先存储第一终端装置的标识。***时间信息包括第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息,第二***时间信息表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的***时间信息,示例性的,能够表征***时间信息的参数包括但不限于帧号和子帧号。广播次数索引表示预定时间周期内广播信道广播消息次数的索引。
针对不同的信道类型,第一终端装置参考不同的第一信息,确定PN序列的初始值。其中,信道类型包括但不限于数据信道、控制信道、广播信道。
具体地,信道类型为数据信道时,***时间信息包括第一***时间信息,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息。第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息。
对于信道类型为数据信道的场景,参见图5或图6,第一终端装置能够从控制信息的校验信息中获取第一终端装置的标识,其具体实现过程可以包括如下步骤:
S40110、第一终端装置从控制信道获取控制信息的校验信息。
其中,校验信息包括用于生成第一终端装置标识的信息。
示例性的,校验信息可以是循环冗余校验码(cyclic redundancy check,CRC)。CRC校验信息中的某些比特位,如前24个比特位,携带第一终端装置的标识。第一终端装置对控制信道所传输的信息进行解调译码之后,即可得到CRC校验信息。
S40111、第一终端装置根据控制信息的校验信息确定第一终端装置的标识。
示例性的,以基于循环冗余校验码确定第一终端装置的标识、且CRC校验码中的前24个比特位携带第一终端装置标识为例,第一终端装置的标识满足如下公式:
其中,N
ID表示第一终端装置的标识,k表示循环冗余校验码中用于携带第一终端装置标识的比特位的索引,c
k表示索引为k的比特位所携带的第一终端装置标识中的部分。
如此,第一终端装置基于控制信道所传输的控制信息的校验信息,来获取第一终端装置的标识,以用于确定PN序列的初始值。
在信道类型为数据信道的一种场景中,数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号数量不变。参见图5,信道类型为数据信道时,S401的具体实现过程可以包括:
S40112、第一终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值。其中,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的时域符号个数,
表示第一解调导频参考信号在一个无线帧的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所在时域符号的索引,N
ID表示第一终端装置的标识。第一DMRS为第一终端装置生成的DMRS,类似的,下文中,第二DMRS为第二终端装置生成的DMRS。
需要说明的是,一个解调导频参考信号可以占用一个或多个时域符号,在本申请实施例中,主要以一个解调导频参考信号占用一个时域符号为例进行说明。
对于一个解调导频参考信号可以占用多个时域符号时,公式(14)中l取多个时域符号中的首个时域符号索引。
如此,第一终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息,确定数据信道第一解调导频参考信号的初始值,可使每个第一终端装置所生成的数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号互不相同。如此,提高了不同终端装置数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号的区分度,进而降低不同终端装置之间的干扰。
在信道类型为数据信道的另一种场景中,数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号数量可变。参见图6,S401的具体实现过程可以包括:
S40113、第一终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识、第一***时间信息和解调导频参考信号的配置信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一终端装置的标识可以参见上文,这里不再赘述。解调导频参考信号的配置信息包括:每一传输时隙中所包含的解调导频参考信号的数量、该数量的解调导频参考信号的位置。该配置信息可以预先存储在第一终端装置中,或者,由接入网设备配置后发给第一终端装置。示例性的,解调导频参考信号的配置信息中包括一个或多个导频配置索引。每个导频配置索引对应每一传输时隙中所包含的解调导频参考信号的数量和每一解调导频参考信号在一个传输时隙中所处的位置。表1示出了一种配置信息的可能实现方式。
表1
其中,n
DMRS-index表示导频配置索引,l
0表示在一个传输时隙中首个时域符号的索引。参见表1,以一个解调导频参考信号占用一个时域符号为例,当导频配置索引n
DMRS-index为0时,每一传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号(即第一终端生成的解调导频参考信号)的数量为1,该第一解调导频参考信号在一个传输时隙中的时域符号索引为l
0(即l
0+0)。导频配置索引n
DMRS-index为1时,一个时隙中包含2个第一解调导频参考信号, 所包含的两个第一解调导频参考信号在该时隙中的时域符号索引分别表示为:l
0+0和l
0+7。导频配置索引n
DMRS-index为3时,每一传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号的数量为4,4个第一解调导频参考信号在一个传输时隙中的时域符号索引分别表示为l
0、l
0+5、l
0+8和l
0+11。此时,第一终端装置可结合实际应用需求,从配置信息中选择某一导频配置索引,也就相应确定了每一传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号的数量和该数量的第一解调导频参考信号的位置,进而可以获取到PN序列的初始值。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的时域符号个数,
表示第一解调导频参考信号在一个无线帧中的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所在时域符号的索引,N
ID表示在数据信道中第一终端装置的标识,N
DMRS表示一个传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号的数量,N
index∈{0,1,2,…,N
DMRS-1},表示一个传输时隙中第一解调导频参考信号的索引。在一个帧结构中,第一解调导频参考信号的索引从左到右依次递增。
如此,第一终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识、第一***时间信息和解调导频参考信号的配置信息,确定数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号的初始值。对于同一第一终端装置来说,不同初始值对应不同的第一导频数量,第一导频数量,即一个时隙中可传输的第一解调导频参考信号,比如,参见表1,PN序列具有某一初始值时,对应n
DMRS-index为1,相应的,一个时隙可传输2个第一解调导频参考信号。且不同初始值对应生成不同的第一解调导频参考信号。由此可推导出,不同的第一解调导频参考信号对应不同的第一导频数量,因此,当第二终端装置接收到某一个第一解调导频参考信号之后,可以获知该第一解调导频参考信号对应的第一导频数量,即获知一个时隙中可传输的第一解调导频参考信号的数目。这就相当于,第一解调导频参考信号可隐式指示第一导频数量,进而,无需单独通过控制信息显示携带第一导频数量,减小了控制信息的长度,能够节省频谱资源。
信道类型为控制信道时,第一信息包括***时间信息,***时间信息包括第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息。作为一种可能的实现方式,时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系均能够表征第一***时间信息,帧信息和子帧信息均能够表征第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的第二***时间。参见图7,S401的具体实现过程可以包括:
S4013、第一终端装置根据第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息,第二***时间信息是通过帧信息和/或子帧信息所表征第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的***时间信息。
示例性的,帧信息可以采用帧号,子帧信息可以采用子帧号。
第一终端装置基于***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值时,可以采用如下三种方式中的至少一种:
方式一:第一终端装置根据第一***时间信息和帧信息(如帧号)确定PN序列的初始值。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的时域符号个数,
表示第一解调导频参考信号在一个无线帧中的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所在时域符号的索引,N
f表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的帧号。
方式二:第一终端装置根据第一***时间信息和子帧信息(如子帧号)确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的时域符号个数,
表示第一解调导频参考信号在一个无线帧的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所在时域符号的索引,n
f表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的子帧号。
方式三:第一终端装置根据第一***时间信息、帧信息(如帧号)和子帧信息(如子帧号)确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
其中,
表示每个时隙中的时域符号个数,
表示一个无线帧的时隙索引,l表示在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所在时域符号的索引,N
f表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的帧号,n
f表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的子帧号。
这里,第一终端装置基于***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值,进而生成控制信道的第一解调导频参考信号,发送给第二终端装置。在第二终端装置接收到来自不同第一终端装置控制信道的第一解调导频参考信号之后,可以获知不同的第一解调导频参考信号的子帧号和/或帧号。若某一第一解调导频参考信号的子帧号和/或帧号与第二终端装置自身的子帧号和/或帧号相同,则该第一解调导频参考信号的发送方与第二终端同步。如此,第二终端装置能够从多个第一终端装置中确定与自身同步的第一终端装置。也就提高了同步源(第一终端装置)的控制信道第一解调导频参考信号的区分度,降低干扰。
具体地,信道类型为广播信道时,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引。参见图8,S401的具体实现过程可以包括:
S4014、第一终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一终端装置的标识包括在同步信道中第一终端装置的标识。
广播次数索引表示预定时间周期内广播信道广播消息次数的索引。
此时,PN序列的初始值满足如下公式:
如此,每次发生广播消息的广播次数索引不同,基于广播次数索引的PN序列的初始值也就不同,进而,由PN序列的初始值生成的第一解调导频参考信号也就不相同。这样一来,扩大了广播信道的第一解调导频参考信号的表达空间,提高了不同终端装置的广播信道第一解调导频参考信号的可识别度,降低干扰。
S402、第一终端装置根据PN序列的初始值,生成第一解调导频参考信号。
作为一种可能的实现方式,基于PN序列生成第一解调导频参考信号时,需要两个m序列(m序列为一种PN序列),即x
1(n)和x
2(n)。每个m序列需要31个初始值。其中,x
1(n)的初始值是固定值,即x
1(0)=1,x
1(n)=0,n=1,2,…,30。x
2(n)的初始值可由S401确定,根据公式(10),即可得到x
2(n)。确定两个m序列x
1(n)和x
2(n)之后,根据公式(6)至公式(9),即可得到不同信道类型的第一解调导频参考信号。
S403、第一终端装置向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号。
相应的,第二终端装置接收第一终端装置所发送第一解调导频参考信号,以进行信道估计。
本申请实施例提供的解调导频参考信号生成方法,第一终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定PN序列的初始值,再根据PN序列的初始值,生成第一解调导频参考信号,并向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号。其中,第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。相对于现有技术中,解调导频参考信号的生成过程均适用于配置小区标识的场景,解调导频参考信号的初始值均与高层配置的解调导频扰码和小区标识有关,对于处于未配置小区标识区域的终端则无法生成解调导频参考信号,无法保证两个终端装置之间直接通信。本申请实施例提供的解调导频参考信号生成方法在不同的信道类型中,结合不同的第一信息确定PN序列的初始值,进而生成向第二终端装置发送的第一解调导频参考信号,且第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。可见,所使用的第一信息与高层配置的解调导频扰码和小区标识无关,即使第一终端装置和第二终端装置均未处于配置小区标识的区域,也能够正常生成解调导频参考信号。
需要说明的是,在第一终端装置向第二终端装置发送信息的过程中,第二终端装置作为接收端,需要进行信道估计得到信道信息,以辅助译码,准确得到第一终端装置所发送的信息。在进行信道估计时,第二终端装置需要两种解调导频参考信号,即第二终端装置接收到的第一解调导频参考信号和第二终端装置生成的第二解调导频参考信号。参见图4,第二终端装置的执行步骤如下:
S404、第二终端装置根据信道类型和第一信息确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值。
其中,信道类型可以包括数据信道、控制信道和广播信道。
第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、***时间信息和广播次数索引中的一个或多个。第一终端装置是向第二终端装置发送第一解调导频参考信号的终端装置。第二终端装置可以在与第一终端装置通信的过程中获取到第一终端装置的标识,或者,通过控制信道所传输的侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)中获取第一终端装置的标识,或者,通过控制信道所传输的循环冗余校验码(cyclic redundancy check,CRC)中获取第一终端装置的标识。***时间信息包括第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息,第二***时间信息表示第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的***时间信息,示例性的,能够表征***时间信息的参数包括但不限于帧号和子帧号。广播次数索引表示预定时间周期内广播信道广播消息次数的索引。
需要说明的是,对数据信道进行信道估计时,需要使用数据信道的第一解调导频参考信号和数据信道的第二解调导频参考信号。类似的,在对控制信道或广播信道进行信道估 计时,使用对应信道类型的解调导频参考信号。
对于信道类型为数据信道的场景,参见图5或图6,第二终端装置需要依据第一终端装置的标识生成数据信道对应的DMRS,以用于信道估计。作为一种可能的实现方式,第二终端装置根据从控制信道所传输的信息中获取第一终端装置的标识,具体实现过程包括如下步骤:
S40410、第二终端装置从控制信道获取控制信息的校验信息。
其中,控制信息的校验信息包括能够生成第一终端装置标识的信息。
示例性的,校验信息可以是循环冗余校验码(cyclic redundancy check,CRC)。CRC校验信息中的某些比特位,如前24个比特位,携带第一终端装置的标识。第二终端装置对控制信道所传输的信息进行解调译码之后,即可得到CRC校验信息。
S40411、第二终端装置根据控制信息的校验信息确定第一终端装置的标识。
示例性的,以基于循环冗余校验码确定第一终端装置的标识、且CRC校验码中的前24个比特位携带第一终端装置标识为例,第一终端装置的标识满足如下公式:
其中,N
ID表示第一终端装置的标识,k表示循环冗余校验码中用于携带第一终端装置标识的比特位的索引,c
k表示索引为k的比特位所携带的第一终端装置标识中的部分。
如此,第二终端装置基于控制信道所传输的信息,来获取第一终端装置的标识,以用于确定PN序列的初始值。
在信道类型为数据信道,且数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号数量不变的场景中。第二终端装置需要生成数据信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号,所需的第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息。具体的,参见图5,S404的具体实现过程可以包括:
S40412、第二终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息。第二终端装置(接收终端)所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式,需与S4011中第一终端装置(即发送终端)所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式一致。并且,PN序列的初始值也需满足公式(14)。
如此,第二终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识和第一***时间信息,确定PN序列的初始值,进而为本地端生成第二解调导频参考信号提供信息支持。
在另一种可能的场景中,若第一解调导频参考信号包括数据信道对应的解调导频参考信号,且数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号数量可变。此时,在一个传输时隙中,第二终端装置会接收到一个或多个第一解调导频参考信号,构成第一解调导频参考信号集合。第二终端装置需要结合配置信息生成数据信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号,所需的第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识、第一***时间信息和解调导频参考信号的配置信息,参见图6,S404的具体实现过程可以包括:
S40413、第二终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识、第一***时间信息和解调导频参考信号的配置信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息。解调导频参考信号的配置信息包括:每一传输时隙中所包含的 第一解调导频参考信号的数量、该数量的第一解调导频参考信号的位置。解调导频参考信号的配置信息可以是网络配置的,或者,第二终端装置预存储的信息。
在确定数据信道PN序列的初始值时,S4042中所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式,仍需与S4012中所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式一致。
由于第二终端装置未能获取到第一终端装置在执行S4012时所采用的导频配置索引,因此,第二终端装置先生成所有导频配置索引对应的第二解调导频参考信号,构成第二解调导频参考信号集合。而对于每一第二解调导频参考信号而言,其PN序列的初始值也需满足公式(15)。
如此,第二终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识、第一***时间信息和解调导频参考信号的配置信息,确定所有可能的第二解调导频参考信号的初始值,进而为本地端生成所有可能的第二解调导频参考信号提供信息支持。
在一种可能的场景中,若第一解调导频参考信号包括控制信道对应的解调导频参考信号。此时,第二终端装置生成控制信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号,所需的第一信息包括***时间信息,***时间信息包括第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息。作为一种可能的实现方式,时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系均能够表征第一***时间信息,帧信息和子帧信息均能够表征第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的第二***时间。参见图7,S404的具体实现过程可以包括:
S4043、第二终端装置根据第一***时间信息和第二***时间信息确定PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一***时间信息是通过时隙索引、时域符号索引、时隙与时域符号的数量配置关系所表征的时间信息,第二***时间信息是通过帧信息和/或子帧信息所表征第一终端装置与第二终端装置处于同步状态时的***时间信息。
在确定控制信道的PN序列的初始值时,S4043中所采用的方式,需与S4013中所采用的方式一致。例如,S4013中基于帧号确定PN序列的初始值(即方式一),则S4043中也需采用帧号确定PN序列的初始值。并且,PN序列的初始值也需满足公式(16)。
如此,第二终端装置基于***时间信息,确定控制信道第二解调导频参考信号的初始值,进而为本地端生成第二解调导频参考信号提供信息支持。
在一种可能的场景中,若第一解调导频参考信号包括广播信道对应的解调导频参考信号。此时,第二终端装置生成广播信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号,所需的第一信息包括第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引,参见图8,S404的具体实现过程可以包括:
S4044、第二终端装置根据第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引确定伪噪声PN序列的初始值。
其中,第一终端装置的标识包括第一终端装置在同步信道的标识。
广播次数索引表示预定时间周期内广播信道广播消息次数的索引。第二终端装置预获取每一时间周期内发送广播消息的最大次数,或者,第二终端装置盲检每一时间周期内发送广播消息的最大次数。
在确定广播信道的PN序列的初始值时,S4044中所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式,仍需与S4014中所采用的第一终端装置的标识具体形式一致。并且,PN序列的初始值也需满足公式(19)。
如此,第二终端装置基于第一终端装置的标识和广播次数索引,确定广播信道第二解调导频参考信号的初始值,进而为本地端生成第二解调导频参考信号提供信息支持。
S405、第二终端装置根据PN序列的初始值,生成第二解调导频参考信号。
其中,第二终端装置需与第一终端装置生成第一解调导频参考信号的过程一致。
需要说明的是,若第二解调导频参考信号是基于S40412、S4043和S4044所确定的PN序列的初始值所生成的信号,则可直接用于信道估计;若第二解调导频参考信号是基于S4042所确定的PN序列的初始值所生成的信号,则需计算每一导频配置索引下第一解调导频参考信号与第二解调导频参考信号的相关性,基于计算得到的相关性选取导频配置索引,将该导频配置索引所对应的第二解调导频参考信息用于信道估计,以提高信道估计的准确性。参见图6,第二终端装置选取用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号的过程如下:
S406、第二终端装置在第一时隙中,确定第一时隙中的第一解调导频参考信号与第一时隙中的一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号的相关性。
这里,第二终端装置根据预获取的控制信息,确定数据信道所占用的时频资源,进而从数据信道占用的时频资源中随机确定第一时隙的位置,并在该第一时隙,计算第一解调导频参考信号与一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号的相关性。
上文已指出,解调导频参考信号的配置信息能够指示每一解调导频参考信号在一个时隙中所处的位置。在解调导频参考信号的配置信息中,若数据信道仅存在一列第一解调导频参考信号,则该列第一解调导频参考信号必须映射至一个时隙的第一个导频符号上。一列解调导频参考信号指的是沿频率轴方向的一个或多个解调导频参考信号。第一列第一解调导频参考信号指的是一个时隙中在第一个导频符号上的一个或多个第一解调导频参考信号。
在本申请实施例中,一个导频符号指的是一个解调导频参考信号映射至的一个或多个时域符号,在此统一说明。
在配置信息中,若数据信道存在两列或更多列第一解调导频参考信号,则必须存在一列第一解调导频参考信号映射至一个时隙的第一个导频符号上。也就是说,对于任一导频配置索引,在一个时隙的第一个导频符号上均存在第一解调导频参考信号。具体如表1所示,索引为l
0的首个时域符号上均存在第一解调导频参考信号。
第二终端装置可采用如下至少一种方式计算第一解调导频参考信号与第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性:
方式1:当数据信道仅存在一列或存在两列以上的第一解调导频参考信号时,计算第一列第一解调导频参考信号与第一列第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性。
作为一种可能的实现方式,针对第一列的每一频域单元,计算第一列中该单个频域单元上的第一解调导频参考信号与第一列中该单个频域单元上的第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性。再将计算出的多个相关性累加,得到第一列第一解调导频参考信号与第一列解调导频参考信号之间的相关性。
相应的,第一解调导频参考信号与一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号的相关性满足以下公式:
其中,h
i表示第i个频域单元在一个时隙的第一个导频符号上的第一解调导频参考信号, i∈{1,2,…,I-1,I},i表示频域单元的索引,I是根据数据信道的带宽和频域单元的间隔所确定的数值。示例性的,每一导频符号对应一个解调导频参考信号。示例性的,频域单元具体可以指频域子载波。
n
DMRS-index表示配置信息中第一解调导频参考信号的导频配置索引,导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index的配置信息用于指示:导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index时,在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号与时域符号的对应关系。
‖ ‖表示求模运算符。
如此,第二终端装置仅根据第一列第一解调导频参考信号与第一列第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,就能够得到用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号,运算量较小,且信道估计的准确性有所提升。
方式2:第二终端装置计算所有可能的第一解调导频参考信号与第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性。
此时,第一解调导频参考信号包括第一解调导频参考信号集合中在第一时隙上的任一导频符号上的解调导频参考信号,第二解调导频参考信号包括第二解调导频参考信号集合中与第一解调导频参考信号相同导频符号上的解调导频参考信号。
其中,第一解调导频参考信号集合表示接收端接收到的数据信道对应的解调导频参考信号的集合,第二解调导频参考信号集合表示基于导频的配置信息生成的解调导频参考信号的集合。
第一解调导频参考信号与一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号的相关性能够满足以下公式:
其中,h
i,l表示第i个频域单元在一个时隙的第l个时域符号上的第一解调导频参考信号,i∈{1,2,…,I-1,I},i表示频域单元的索引,I是根据数据信道的带宽和频域单元的间隔所确定的数值。每一导频符号对应一个解调导频参考信号。示例性的,频域单元具体可以指频域子载波。
n
DMRS-index表示配置信息中第一解调导频参考信号的导频配置索引,导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index的配置信息用于指示:导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index时,在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所处的导频符号与时域符号的对应关系。
‖ ‖表示求模运算符。
第一解调导频参考信号与一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号的相关性也能够满足以下公式:
其中,h
i,l表示第i个频域单元在一个时隙的第l个时域符号上的第一解调导频参考信号,i∈{1,2,…,I-1,I},i表示频域单元的索引,I是根据数据信道的带宽和频域单元的间隔所确定的数值。每一导频符号对应一个解调导频参考信号。示例性的,频域单元具体可以指频域子载波。
n
DMRS-index表示配置信息中第一解调导频参考信号的导频配置索引,导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index的配置信息用于指示:导频配置索引为n
DMRS-index时,在一个时隙中第一解调导频参考信号所处的导频符号与时域符号的对应关系。
‖ ‖表示求模运算符。
如此,第二终端装置计算每一第一解调导频参考信号与第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,提高相关性计算结果的准确性,进而准确选取导频配置索引,得到用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号。
S407、根据第一解调导频参考信号与一个或多个第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,确定用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号。
其中,用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号包括相关性最大的第二解调导频参考信号。
示例性的,若基于公式(20)计算第一解调导频参考信号和第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,则用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号满足以下公式:
若基于公式(21)计算第一解调导频参考信号和第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,则用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号满足以下公式:
若基于公式(22)计算第一解调导频参考信号和第二解调导频参考信号之间的相关性,则用于信道估计的第二解调导频参考信号满足以下公式:
如此,第二终端装置选取相关性计算结果最高的导频配置索引,将相关性最大的导频配置索引所对应的第二解调导频参考信号用于信道估计,以提高信道估计的准确性。
下面以第一解调导频参考信号数量不变的数据信道为例,对第一终端装置发送信息(该信息携带第一解调导频参考信号)和第二终端装置接收、译码该信息的过程进行具体阐述。参见图9,该方法包括如下步骤:
S901、第一终端装置对待发送信息进行信道编码。
S902、第一终端装置生成数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号。
其中,第一终端装置所执行的具体步骤参见S40110至S40112,以及S402,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,第一终端装置可以先执行S901、再执行S902,也可以先执行S902、再执行S901,或者,同时执行S901和S902。此处对S901和S902的先后顺序不作限定。
S903、第一终端装置将信道编码后的待发送信息,以及数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号映射到时域资源。
示例性的,若一个传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号的数量为1,该第一解调导频参考信号映射到时域资源的位置即为每一传输时隙中时域符号索引表示为0的位置。
S904、第一终端装置对时域资源的信息进行快速傅里叶变换(fast fourier transform, FFT)和组帧处理。
示例性的,在FFT处理后的数据前后部分添上首部和尾部,封装为帧,以便于第二终端装置根据首部和尾部的标记,从收到的比特流中识别帧的开始和结束。
S905、第一终端装置向第二终端装置发送已封装为帧的信息。
相应的,第二终端装置从第一终端装置接收已封装为帧的信息。
S906、第二终端装置对已封装为帧的信息进行解帧处理和快速傅里叶逆变换(inverse fast fourier transform,IFFT)。
S907、第二终端装置对快速傅里叶逆变换后的信息进行信道分离,获取第一解调导频参考信号和数据信息。
S908、第二终端装置生成数据信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号。
其中,第二终端装置所执行的具体步骤参见S40410至S40412,以及S405,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,第二终端装置可以先执行S907、再执行S908,也可以先执行S908、再执行S907,或者,同时执行S907和S908。此处对S907和S908的先后顺序不作限定。
S909、第二终端装置根据接收到的第一解调导频参考信号和生成的第二解调导频参考信号,进行信道估计,获取信道估计结果。
S910、第二终端装置根据信道估计结果对接收到的数据信息进行译码。
如此,第一终端装置和第二终端装置即可直接通信,不存在解调导频参考信号表达空间的限制,且能够提高不同解调导频参考信号之间的区分度。
下面再以第一解调导频参考信号数量可变的数据信道为例,对第一终端装置发送信息(该信息携带第一解调导频参考信号)和第二终端装置接收、译码该信息的过程进行具体阐述。参见图10,该方法包括如下步骤:
S1001、第一终端装置对待发送信息进行信道编码。
S1002、第一终端装置生成数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号。
这里,第一终端装置所执行的具体步骤参见S40110、S40111、S40113和S402,此处不再赘述。
S1003、第一终端装置将信道编码后的待发送信息,以及数据信道对应的第一解调导频参考信号映射到时域资源。
示例性的,以表1中导频配置索引n
DMRS-index=1为例,一个传输时隙中所包含的第一解调导频参考信号的数量为2,两个第一解调导频参考信号映射到时域资源的位置即为每一传输时隙中时域符号索引分别表示为l
0和l
0+7的位置。
S1004的执行过程参见S904,S1005的执行过程参见S905,S1006的执行过程参见S906,此处不作赘述。
S1007、第二终端装置生成数据信道对应的第二解调导频参考信号。
其中,第二终端装置所执行的具体步骤参见S40410、S40411、S40413和S405,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,第二终端装置可以先执行S1006、再执行S1007,也可以先执行S1007、再执行S1006,或者,同时执行S1006和S1007。此处对S1006和S1007的先后顺序不作 限定。
S1008、第二终端装置根据生成的第二解调导频参考信号,对快速傅里叶逆变换后的信息进行盲检测,获取第一终端装置所采用的导频配置索引。
这里,第二终端装置所执行的具体步骤参见S406和S407,此处不再赘述。
S1009、第二终端装置根据第一终端装置所采用的导频配置索引,对快速傅里叶逆变换后的信息进行信道分离,获取第一解调导频参考信号和数据信息。
S1010、根据接收到的第一解调导频参考信号和导频配置索引对应的第二解调导频参考信号,进行信道估计,获取信道估计结果。
S1011的执行过程参见S910,此处不作赘述。
如此,第一终端装置和第二终端装置即可直接通信,即使数据信道中的解调导频参考信号的数量是可变的,第二终端装置也能够确定出第一终端装置所采用的导频配置索引,将相同的导频配置索引所对应的第二解调导频参考信号用于信道估计,以提高信道估计的准确性。并且,控制信息无需携带数量信息,缩小了控制信息的长度,节省频谱资源。
