Description

波束指示方法、波束指示装置及存储介质 技术领域
本公开涉及通信技术领域，尤其涉及波束指示方法、波束指示装置及存储介质。
背景技术
在新无线技术(New Radio，NR)中，例如通信频段在frequency range 2时，由于高频信道衰减较快，为了保证覆盖范围，需要使用基于波束(beam)的发送和接收。
相关技术中，物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel，PDCCH)、物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel，PDSCH)、物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel，PUSCH)、物理上行控制信道(physical uplink control channel，PUCCH)以及各个上下行参考信号等的波束是独立指示的。而且PDCCH和PUCCH使用媒体接入控制(medium access control，MAC)控制单元(control element，CE)来激活波束。而PDSCH和PUSCH通过下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information，DCI)信令来指示其各自的波束。目前，为了减少信令开销，使用通用波束(common beam)进行指示。common beam可以用于终端的上行和下行的信道和/或参考信号的指示。然而，如何进行common beam的指示，仍有待研究。

具体实施方式
这里将详细地对示例性实施例进行说明，其示例表示在附图中。下面的描述涉及附图时，除非另有表示，不同附图中的相同数字表示相同或相似的要素。以下示例性实施例中所描述的实施方式并不代表与本公开相一致的所有实施方式。相反，它们仅是与如所附权利要求书中所详述的、本公开的一些方面相一致的装置和方法的例子。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法可应用于图1所示的无线通信***中。参阅图1所示，该无线通信***中包括终端和网络设备。终端通过无线资源与网络设备相连接，并进行数据的发送与接收。
可以理解的是，图1所示的无线通信***仅是进行示意性说明，无线通信***中还可包括其它网络设备，例如还可以包括核心网设备、无线中继设备和无线回传设备等，在图1中未画出。本公开实施例对该无线通信***中包括的网络设备数目和终端数目不做限定。
进一步可以理解的是，本公开实施例的无线通信***，是一种提供无线通信功能的网络。无线通信***可以采用不同的通信技术，例如码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access，WCDMA)、时分多址(time division multiple access，TDMA)、频分多址(frequency division multiple access，FDMA)、正交频分多址(orthogonal frequency-division multiple access，OFDMA)、单载波频分多址(single Carrier FDMA，SC-FDMA)、载波侦听多路访问/冲突避免(Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance)。根据不同网络的容量、速率、时延等因素可以将网络分为2G(英文：generation)网络、3G网络、4G网络或者未来演进网络，如5G网络，5G网络也可称为是新无线网络(New Radio，NR)。为了方便描述，本公开有时会将无线通信网络简称为网络。
进一步的，本公开中涉及的网络设备也可以称为无线接入网设备。该无线接入网设备 可以是：基站、演进型基站(evolved node B，eNB)、家庭基站、无线保真(wireless fidelity，WIFI)***中的接入点(access point，AP)、无线中继节点、无线回传节点、传输点(transmission point，TP)或者传输接收点(transmission and reception point，TRP)等，还可以为NR***中的gNB，或者，还可以是构成基站的组件或一部分设备等。当为车联网(V2X)通信***时，网络设备还可以是车载设备。应理解，本公开的实施例中，对网络设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
进一步的，本公开中涉及的终端，也可以称为终端设备、用户设备(User Equipment，UE)、移动台(Mobile Station，MS)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal，MT)等，是一种向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备，例如，终端可以是具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、车载设备等。目前，一些终端的举例为：智能手机(Mobile Phone)、口袋计算机(Pocket Personal Computer，PPC)、掌上电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant，PDA)、笔记本电脑、平板电脑、可穿戴设备、或者车载设备等。此外，当为车联网(V2X)通信***时，终端设备还可以是车载设备。应理解，本公开实施例对终端所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
本公开中网络设备与终端之间基于波束进行数据传输。基于波束进行数据传输过程中，为了减少信令开销，使用common beam进行信道和/或参考信号的指示。相关技术中，common beam可以是分开指示上行传输或下行传输，或者上行传输和下行传输联合指示。例如，网络设备如果指示用于下行的common beam，那么该common beam可以用于指示终端的PDSCH和所有PDCCH或一部分PDCCH(比如终端专用PDCCH(UE dedicated PDCCH))。网络设备如果指示一个用于上行的common beam，那么该common beam可以用于指示终端的PUSCH和所有PUCCH或一部分PUCCH。网络设备如果指示一个common beam，那么该beam可以用于终端的上行和下行的信道和/或参考信号。
其中，common beam是用于哪些信道和/或参考信号的指示，是通过信令指示或是标准规定的，终端是能获知的。然而，common beam如何指示信道和/或参考信号仍有待研究。
本公开实施例提供一种波束指示方法，通过指示信息指示一个或多个通用传输配置指示状态(common transmission configuration indication state，common TCI state)，实现common beam的指示。
一种实施方式中，common TCI state包括适用于上行(uplink，UL)和下行(downlink，DL)的UL&DL common TCI state，或适用于UL的UL common TCI state和/或适用于DL的DL common TCI state。
可以理解为是，本公开实施例中涉及的common TCI state可以理解为是与common  beam对应。其中，本公开实施例中，common beam与common TCI state有时会互换使用，DL common beam与DL common TCI state有时会互换使用，UL common beam和UL common TCI state有时会互换使用，UL common beam也可以与UL common SpatialRelationInfo互换使用，本领域技术人员应理解其含义一致性。
其中，本公开实施例中为描述方便，将用于指示common TCI state的指示信息称为第一指示信息。
图2是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束指示方法的流程图，如图2所示，波束指示方法用于终端中，包括以下步骤。
在步骤S11中，接收第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示一个或多个common TCI state。
其中，common TCI state包括适用于UL和DL的UL&DL common TCI state。
其中，common TCI state可以是适用于UL的UL common TCI state，或common TCI state可以是适用于DL的DL common TCI state。
一示例中，第一指示信息可以用于指示M个DL common TCI state和/或N个UL common TCI state，或L个UL&DL common TCI state。其中，M大于等于1，N大于等于1，L大于等于1。
可以理解的是，本公开实施例中，M＝1，N＝1，L＝1对应单TRP的common TCI state的指示。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法，通过第一指示信息的指示域指示UL common TCI state和/或DL common TCI state，或UL&DL common TCI state。当同一TCI state可以适用于上行和下行时，第一指示信息需要指示UL&DL common TCI state即可。当上行和下行需要使用不同的common TCI state时，第一指示信息的单次发送可以指示DL common beam，或UL common beam，或DL common beam和UL common beam一起。
一示例性实施例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示信息包括第一指示域。其中，第一指示域用于指示UL common TCI state。
另一示例性实施例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示信息包括第一指示域。其中，第一指示域用于指示UL&DL common TCI state。
又一示例性实施例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示信息包括第二指示域。其中，第二指示域用于指示DL common TCI state。又一示例性实施例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示信息包括第二指示域。其中，第二指示域用于指示UL&DL common TCI state。
再一示例性实施例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示信息包括第一指示域和第二指示域，其中，第一指示域用于指示UL common TCI state，第二指示域用于指示DL common TCI state。
本公开实施例中讨论的第一指示域和第二指示域以第一指示域用于指示UL common TCI state，第二指示域用于指示DL common TCI state为例来说明。本公开实施例中，由于UL&DL common TCI state不会单独与DL common beam一起指示，且UL&DL common TCI state不会单独与UL common beam一起指示，所以第一指示域在不需要单独指示UL common beam时也可以用于指示UL&DL common TCI state；同理，第二指示域在不需要单独指示DL common beam时也可以用于指示UL&DL common TCI state。也就是说，当只指示一个UL&DL common TCI state时，只需要一个指示域。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法，第一指示域和第二指示域可以是在同一个DCI格式(DCI format)中，也可以是在不同的DCI format中。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示域和第二指示域位于同一DCI格式(DCI format)中，第一指示域和第二指示域不同，即DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域不同。
一示例中，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域不同。
其中，第一指示域和/或第二指示域，可以是DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的传输配置指示(transmission configuration indication，TCI)的指示域。DCI信令中用于指示探测参考信号(sounding reference signal，SRS)资源指示的指示域，英文简称可以是SRS resource indicator。以及DCI信令中新增的指示域。例如，在用于下行调度的DCI格式中，用于指示DL common TCI state的第二指示域复用已有DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的传输配置指示TCI的指示域。用于指示UL common TCI state的第一指示域，可以是在DCI中新增的指示域。即，在DCI中添加一个新的用于指示UL common beam的指示域。再例如可以是，在用于下行调度或上行调度的DCI格式中的DCI中添加不同的指示域，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state分别通过添加新的指示域，以分别指示DL common beam和UL common beam。再例如，在用于上行调度的DCI格式中，用于指示UL common TCI state的第一指示域复用已有DCI信令中用于SRS资源指示的指示域，用于指示DL common TCI state的第二指示域，可以是在DCI中新增的指示域。
一种实施方式中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示域和第二指示域位于同一DCI格式，第一指示域和第二指示域相同，即DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域相同。
一示例中，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域相同，第一指示域和第二指示域通过不同比特位表征。
第一指示域和/或第二指示域可以是以下之一或组合：DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的传输配置指示(transmission configuration indication，TCI)的指示域；DCI信令中用于指示探测参考信号(sounding reference signal，SRS)资源指示的指示域，英文简称可以是SRS resource indicator；以及DCI信令中新增的指示域。例如，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域复用已有DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI指示域，比特数可以大于或等于已有比特数3bit，但DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state占用指示域中不同的比特位。
一种实施方式中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示域和第二指示域位于同一DCI格式，第一指示域和第二指示域相同，第一指示域和第二指示域通过同一比特位的不同比特位取值表征。第一指示域和/或第二指示域可以是以下之一或组合：DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI的指示域；DCI信令中SRS resource indicator；以及DCI信令中新增的指示域。例如，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域复用已有DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI指示域，且DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state占用指示域中相同的比特位，并通过该相同比特位的不同比特值即codepoint表征第一指示域和第二指示域。需要说明的是，即使是复用PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI的指示域或复用SRS resource indicator，其比特数可以在已有比特数基础上保持不变或进行增加。
一种示例中，本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，通过不同的比特位取值对应的比特码字指示DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state。第一指示域和/或第二指示域可以是以下之一或组合：DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI的指示域；DCI信令中SRS resource indicator；以及DCI信令中新增的指示域。例如，第一比特位取值用于表征第一指示域，第二比特位取值用于表征第二指示域。第一比特位取值对应的比特码字(code point)与UL common TCI state之间具有第一映射关系，和/或第二比特位取值对应的code point与DL common TCI state之间具有第二映射关系，也可以第三比特位取值对应的比特码字与UL common TCI state和DL common TCI state具有第三映射关系。
一示例中，Bit值对应的code point与DL common TCI state和/或UL common TCI state有映射关系，该映射关系由媒体接入控制(Medium Access Control，MAC)控制单元(Control Element，CE)指示。
比如指示域包含3bit，code point为000对应指示DL common TCI state#0和UL common  TCI state#1，001对应指示DL common TCI state#2，010对应指示UL common TCI state#3，011对应指示DL common TCI state#4和UL common TCI state#5……这里DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的编号可以联合编号或独立编号，不作限制。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，单次发送的DCI用于指示DL common TCI state或UL common TCI state，即同一DCI信令在第一时间内可以指示DL common TCI state或UL common TCI state。其中，单次发送的DCI指示的是DL common beam还是UL common beam，采用隐式指示方式或显示指示方式进行指示。
其中，可以理解为是发送一次该DCI信令不能同时指示DL common beam和UL common beam，当然有下行数据需要传输时更新下行common beam、有上行数据需要传输时更新上行common beam也是合理的。
一示例中，采用隐式指示方式进行指示单次发送的DCI指示的是DL common beam还是UL common beam，例如可以是用于下行调度的DCI format的DCI信令中指示了下行资源调度，则是用于指示DL common beam；若没指示下行资源调度，则可以理解为是用于指示UL common beam。或例如可以是用于下行调度的DCI format的DCI信令中指示的是DL common beam，用于上行调度的DCI format的DCI信令中指示的是UL common beam。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示域和第二指示域位于不同的DCI format中，即，DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的指示域在不同的DCI format中。
一示例中，用于指示DL common TCI state的指示域在用于下行调度的DCI format中，可以复用已有DCI信令中用于PDSCH专用beam指示的TCI指示域或添加新的指示域。用于指示UL common TCI state的指示域在用于上行调度的DCI format中，可以复用已有DCI信令中的SRS resource indicator，或添加一个新的指示域，该新的指示域用于指示UL common beam。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第一指示域和第二指示域位于不同的DCI format，单次发送的DCI用于指示DL common TCI state或UL common TCI state，即同一DCI信令在第一时间内可以指示DL common TCI state或UL common TCI state。其中，可以是在有下行传输时指示DL common beam，在有上行传输时，指示UL common beam。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，可以通过指示信息指示common TCI state所适用的信道和/或参考信号。
其中，为描述方便，将用于指示common TCI state所适用的信道和/或参考信号的指示信息称为第二指示信息。
图3是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束指示方法的流程图，如图3所示，波束指示方法用于终端中，该方法可以单独被执行或是结合本公开实施例中的其他方法一起被执行；该方法包括以下步骤。
在步骤S21中，接收第二指示信息，第二指示信息用于指示common TCI state所适用的信道和/或参考信号。
其中，第二指示信息可以是无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)信令，也可以是MAC CE信令。
一示例中，终端通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示DL common TCI state用于指示哪些下行传输的beam。比如通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示DL common TCI state用于指示PDCCH、PDSCH、物理广播信道(Physical broadcast channel，PBCH)、同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，SSB)、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)，定位参考信号(Positioning reference signals，PRS)、跟踪参考信号(tracking reference signal，TRS)等中的至少两项的beam。再比如，终端通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示参考信号(比如同样为CSI-RS)，还可以指示其用途，比如是用于波束测量的CSI-RS，还是用于信道状态信息测量的CSI-RS等。再比如，对于某种信道，还可以指示是适用于该信道的所有传输，还是只适用于UE specific的部分。比如PDCCH，还可以指示是适用于所有PDCCH，还是只适用于UE specific的PDCCH。
另一示例中，当用于上行传输时，第二指示信息指示UL common TCI state用于指示哪些上行传输的beam。比如通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示PUCCH、PUSCH，物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel，PRACH)、SRS，DMRS中的至少两项的beam。同样，对于参考信号，比如同样为SRS，还可以指示其用途，比如是用于波束测量的SRS、还是用于codebook based的信道状态信息测量的SRS、还是用non-codebook based的信道状态信息测量的SRS，还是用于天线切换的SRS、还是用于定位测量的SRS等。
另一示例性实施例中，第二指示信息还可以指示上下行通用传输配置指示状态用于指示哪些上行和下行传输的beam。比如通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示上下行通用传输配置指示状态用于指示PDCCH、PDSCH、PUCCH、PUSCH，物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel，PRACH)、物理广播信道(Physical broadcast channel，PBCH)、同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，SSB)、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)，定位参考信号(Positioning reference signals，PRS)、跟踪参考信号(tracking  reference signal，TRS)、SRS等中的至少两项的beam。再比如，终端通过RRC信令和/或MAC CE信令指示参考信号(比如同样为CSI-RS)，还可以指示其用途，比如是用于波束测量的CSI-RS，还是用于信道状态信息测量的CSI-RS等。比如同样为SRS，还可以指示其用途，比如是用于波束测量的SRS、还是用于codebook based的信道状态信息测量的SRS、还是用non-codebook based的信道状态信息测量的SRS，还是用于天线切换的SRS、还是用于定位测量的SRS等。再比如，对于某种信道，还可以指示是适用于该信道的所有传输，还是只适用于UE specific的部分。比如PDCCH，还可以指示是适用于所有PDCCH，还是只适用于UE specific的PDCCH。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法，针对单个或多个TRP进行common TCI state的指示，即可以针对单个或多个TRP通过第一指示信息指示common TCI state。即，一个或多个common TCI state为同一TRP的TCI state。或者一个或多个common TCI state为多个TRP的TCI state。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，由指示信息指示第一指示信息用于指示一个TRP的common TCI state，或者指示第一指示信息用于指示多个TRP的common TCI state。
为描述方便，将用于指示第一指示信息指示一个或多个TRP的common TCI state的指示信息称为第三指示信息。
图4是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种波束指示方法的流程图，如图4所示，波束指示方法用于终端中，该方法可以单独被执行或是结合本公开实施例中的其他方法一起被执行；该方法包括以下步骤。
在步骤S31中，接收第三指示信息，第三指示信息用于指示第一指示信息用于指示一个或多个TRP的common TCI state。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，第三指示信息用于指示第一指示信息用于指示单个TRP的common TCI state，即最多指示一个DL common TCI state、最多一个UL common TCI state、最多一个UL&DL common TCI state。当第三指示信息用于指示第一指示信息用于指示多个TRP时，可能需要指示多个DL common TCI state，多个UL common TCI state，多个UL&DL common TCI state。
一示例中，第三指示信息指示第一指示信息用于指示多个DL common TCI state的指示域，与单个DL common TCI state的指示域相同，其指示域的code point对应的是一个还是两个DL common TCI state，由MAC CE来给出code point与一个或两个DL common TCI state的对应关系，同前所述类似。
另一示例中，第三指示信息指示第一指示信息用于指示多个UL common TCI state的指 示域，与单个UL common TCI state的指示域相同，其指示域的code point对应的是一个还是两个UL common TCI state，由MAC CE来给出code point与一个或两个UL common TCI state的对应关系，同前所述类似。
另一示例中，第三指示信息指示第一指示信息用于指示多个UL&DL common TCI state的指示域，与单个UL&DL common TCI state的指示域相同，其指示域的code point对应的是一个还是两个UL&DL common TCI state，由MAC CE来给出code point与一个或两个UL&DL common TCI state的对应关系，同前所述类似。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法中，可以通过指示信息指示使用一个UL&DL common TCI state，还是使用DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state分开指示。也可以理解为是，终端接收第四指示信息，该第四指示信息用于指示第一指示信息用于指示UL&DL common TCI state、DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state中的至少一项。
一示例中，第四指示信息可以是RRC信令和/或MAC信令。
例如，RRC信令和/或MAC信令指示使用一个common TCI state，还是使用DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state分开指示。比如MAC CE信令必选激活X个TCI state，可选激活Y个TCI state，用于激活X个TCI state和Y个TCI state的比特位置不一样。当只激活这X个TCI state时，表示是common TCI state，即joint DL/UL beam indication，相当于X个TCI state中的每个TCI state都可以用于上行和下行。当也激活了Y个TCI state时，表示是separate DL/UL beam indication，而X个用于DL，Y个用于UL。X值和Y值可以一样。同时RRC和/或MAC信令指示不同情况下，DCI里面用于common TCI state指示的比特域位置和比特数的至少一项。
本公开实施例提供的波束指示方法，通过common beam指示方式，减少了信令开销，并实现DL common beam和UL common beam分开指示，以及DL common TCI state和UL common TCI state的动态指示方法。其中，包括DL common beam和UL common beam对应的DCI format、DCI信令中的指示域以及DCI信令的code point的指示含义等。通过本公开提供的波束指示方法，提高DCI信令的可靠性以及减少波束指示的信令开销。
