为便于理解本申请实施例,下面对本申请实施例中涉及到的术语做简单介绍。To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are briefly introduced below.
1、同步信号块(synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block,SSB)1. Synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB)
SSB也可以称为同步信号/物理广播信道(physical broadcast channel,PBCH)块(block),由主同步信号(Primary synchronization signal,PSS)、辅同步信号(secondary synchronization signal,SSS)和物理广播信道(physical broadcasting channel,PBCH)组成,在时域上占用4个正交频分复用(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,OFDM)符号。SSB can also be called a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (physical broadcast channel, PBCH) block (block), which consists of a primary synchronization signal (Primary synchronization signal, PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (secondary synchronization signal, SSS) and a physical broadcast channel ( physical broadcasting channel (PBCH), occupying 4 orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM) symbols in the time domain.
图2是本申请实施例提供的一种SSB符号包括的内容的示意图。SSB带宽为20个资源块(resource block,RB),包含了240个子载波(subcarrier)。第一个符号承载有PSS,其中包括了127个子载波,即PSS序列长度为127,并且PSS只占用SSB频域中间部分,两边不发送其他数据或控制信息;第二个和第四个符号为广播信道(physical broadcasting channel,PBCH),主要承载***信息;第三个符号同时承载PBCH和SSS,其中SSS序列长度和PSS一样都是127,并且都占用SSB频域中间的127个资源元素(resource element, RE)。SSS的两边分别使用48个RE发送PBCH,SSS和PBCH之间有8和9个RE的间隔。Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of contents included in an SSB symbol provided by an embodiment of the present application. The SSB bandwidth is 20 resource blocks (resource block, RB), including 240 subcarriers (subcarrier). The first symbol carries PSS, which includes 127 subcarriers, that is, the PSS sequence length is 127, and the PSS only occupies the middle part of the SSB frequency domain, and no other data or control information is sent on both sides; the second and fourth symbols are The broadcast channel (physical broadcasting channel, PBCH), mainly carries system information; the third symbol carries PBCH and SSS at the same time, where the sequence length of SSS is 127 like that of PSS, and both occupy 127 resource elements in the middle of the SSB frequency domain (resource element, RE). Both sides of the SSS use 48 REs to send the PBCH respectively, and there is an interval of 8 and 9 REs between the SSS and the PBCH.
2、控制资源集(control resource set,CORESET)和搜索空间(search space)2. Control resource set (CORESET) and search space (search space)
控制资源集用于传输下行控制信息的资源集合,也可以称为控制资源区域,或物理下行控制信道资源集合。The control resource set is a resource set used to transmit downlink control information, and may also be called a control resource region, or a physical downlink control channel resource set.
由于NR中***带宽较大(频率范围1(frequency range 1,FR1)最高可达100MHz,频率范围2(frequency range 2,FR2)最高可达400MHz,NR将PDCCH在频域上占用的频段和在时域上占用的OFDM符号数等信息封装在CORESET中,将PDCCH起始的OFDM符号数索引以及PDCCH监听周期等信息封装在搜索空间(search space)中。PDCCH的配置包括CORESET的配置和搜索空间的配置,根据CORESET和搜索空间,可以确定候选PDCCH资源。其中,控制资源集可以包括时频资源,例如,频域上可以是一段带宽,或者一个或者多个子带等;时域上可以是一个或多个OFDM符号;一个控制资源集在频域上可以是连续或不连续的资源,例如,在频域上,控制资源集包括连续的RB或者不连续的RB。一个或多个搜索空间组成一个搜索空间集。当没有特别说明时,搜索空间和搜索空间集可互换,它们表示的含义相同。Since the system bandwidth in NR is large (frequency range 1 (frequency range 1, FR1) can reach up to 100MHz, and frequency range 2 (frequency range 2, FR2) can reach up to 400MHz, NR combines the frequency band occupied by PDCCH in the frequency domain with the Information such as the number of OFDM symbols occupied in the time domain is encapsulated in the CORESET, and information such as the number of OFDM symbols starting from the PDCCH and the PDCCH monitoring period are encapsulated in the search space. The configuration of the PDCCH includes the configuration and search space of the CORESET According to the configuration of CORESET and search space, candidate PDCCH resources can be determined. Wherein, the control resource set can include time-frequency resources, for example, in the frequency domain, it can be a section of bandwidth, or one or more subbands, etc.; in the time domain, it can be a or multiple OFDM symbols; a control resource set can be continuous or discontinuous resources in the frequency domain, for example, in the frequency domain, the control resource set includes continuous RBs or discontinuous RBs. One or more search spaces consist of A set of search spaces. Unless otherwise specified, search space and search space set are interchangeable and mean the same thing.
对于网络设备而言,控制资源集可以理解为发送PDCCH所可能使用的资源的集合;对于终端设备而言,每个终端设备的PDCCH的搜索空间所对应的资源都属于控制资源集。或者说,网络设备可以从控制资源集中确定发送PDCCH使用的资源,终端设备可以根据控制资源集确定PDCCH的搜索空间。For a network device, the control resource set can be understood as a set of resources that may be used for sending the PDCCH; for a terminal device, the resources corresponding to the PDCCH search space of each terminal device belong to the control resource set. In other words, the network device may determine the resource used for sending the PDCCH from the control resource set, and the terminal device may determine the PDCCH search space according to the control resource set.
3、同步栅格(synchronization raster,synch raster)3. Synchronization raster (synch raster)
终端设备扫描SSB的频率位置信息可通过同步栅格定义,它表示一系列可用于发送SSB的频点。基站部署时需建立小区,每个小区都需要有特定的SSB,每个SSB对应的频率位置即为同步栅格位置。同步栅格概念的引入主要是让终端设备执行小区搜索过程中在特定频点位置做相应搜索,避免盲目搜索的不确定性导致过长的接入时延和能量损耗。3GPP定义了某些频率作为同步栅格,CD-SSB位于同步栅格,而NCD-SSB可能位于同步栅格,也可能不位于同步栅格。同步栅格是绝对的频率位置。同步栅格的频率位置如果存在SSB,则对应的是SSB包括的240个子载波中的第121个子载波的频率位置。The frequency position information of the terminal device scanning the SSB can be defined by a synchronization grid, which represents a series of frequency points that can be used to transmit the SSB. Cells need to be established during base station deployment, and each cell needs to have a specific SSB, and the frequency position corresponding to each SSB is the synchronization grid position. The introduction of the synchronization grid concept is mainly to allow terminal equipment to perform corresponding searches at specific frequency points during the cell search process, so as to avoid excessive access delay and energy loss caused by the uncertainty of blind search. 3GPP defines certain frequencies as synchronous grids, CD-SSB is on the synchronous grid, and NCD-SSB may or may not be on the synchronous grid. A sync grid is an absolute frequency position. If there is an SSB in the frequency position of the synchronization grid, it corresponds to the frequency position of the 121st subcarrier among the 240 subcarriers included in the SSB.
UE在初始接入时要先选择小区。UE会在同步栅格上搜索SSB,如果在同步栅格上搜索到CD-SSB,UE就可能会选择该CD-SSB对应的小区作为初始接入小区。此外,UE会接收该CD-SSB关联的RMSI(即SIB1)。The UE first selects a cell when initially accessing. The UE will search for the SSB on the synchronization grid. If a CD-SSB is found on the synchronization grid, the UE may select the cell corresponding to the CD-SSB as the initial access cell. In addition, the UE will receive the RMSI associated with the CD-SSB (ie SIB1).
4、带宽部分(bandwidth part,BWP)4. Bandwidth part (BWP)
BWP是载波带宽内的部分带宽。一个BWP可以是一个载波上的一段连续频率资源。网络设备可以给一个终端配置一个或多个BWP,不同BWP的带宽可以不同。网络设备也可以给不同的终端设备配置不同的带宽大小的BWP。网络设备会发送激活信令激活多个配置的BWP中的一个。当一个BWP被配置并且激活后,这个BWP被称为激活的BWP(active BWP),激活的BWP包括激活的下行链路(down link,DL)BWP和激活的上行链路(up link,UL)BWP。终端设备在激活的UL BWP内发送数据和控制信息,在激活DL BWP内接收数据和控制信息。一种可能的实施方式中,在一个小区,同一个时刻,1个终端设备只支持1个激活的上行BWP和/或1个下行BWP。终端设备在初始接入时被 分配的BWP称为初始BWP(initial BWP)。初始BWP的标识取值为0。The BWP is a portion of the bandwidth within the carrier bandwidth. A BWP can be a segment of continuous frequency resources on a carrier. A network device can configure one or more BWPs for a terminal, and bandwidths of different BWPs can be different. The network device can also configure BWPs with different bandwidth sizes for different terminal devices. The network device will send an activation signaling to activate one of the multiple configured BWPs. When a BWP is configured and activated, this BWP is called an active BWP (active BWP), and an activated BWP includes an activated downlink (down link, DL) BWP and an activated uplink (up link, UL) BWP. The terminal device sends data and control information in the active UL BWP and receives data and control information in the active DL BWP. In a possible implementation manner, in one cell at the same moment, one terminal device only supports one activated uplink BWP and/or one downlink BWP. The BWP assigned to the terminal device during initial access is called initial BWP (initial BWP). The value of the initial BWP identifier is 0.
第五代(5th Generation,5G)通信的业务信道通过时域和频域调度、天线技术等方式可以规避部分干扰。随着5G的频段扩充到低频段,面对越来越多的***外干扰,比如广播电视塔的大功率发射信号、各种甚高频(Very high frequency,VHF)/特高频(ultra-high frequency,UHF)波电台临时突发性使用造成的频段内干扰、某些区域恶意的跳频阻塞干扰等。The business channel of the fifth generation (5th Generation, 5G) communication can avoid partial interference through time domain and frequency domain scheduling, antenna technology and other methods. With the expansion of the 5G frequency band to the low frequency band, there will be more and more interference outside the system, such as high-power transmission signals from broadcasting and TV towers, various very high frequency (VHF)/ultra-high frequency (ultra-high frequency) High frequency, UHF) wave radio station temporary burst use caused by interference within the frequency band, malicious frequency hopping blocking interference in some areas, etc.
一旦公共信道受到干扰,会导致终端无法收到***消息,进而无法入网驻留、发起接入、进行正常的资源分配和调度,导致整个***失效。Once the public channel is interfered, the terminal will not be able to receive system messages, and then will not be able to camp on the network, initiate access, and perform normal resource allocation and scheduling, resulting in failure of the entire system.
作为示例,图3是本申请实施例提供的两种阻塞干扰的示意图。如图3的(A)所示,在公共信道的跳频频段内发生了梳状阻塞干扰,如图3的(B)所示,在公共信道的跳频频段内发生了宽带阻塞干扰。跳频频率是终端设备可以工作的频率范围的区间,在跳频频段发生干扰(梳状阻塞干扰或宽带阻塞干扰)将会引起干扰位置某些频点的信号质量恶化,如果干扰位置是小区的公共信道的时频位置,将会使得终端设备无法进行小区搜索,进而会影响通信***的正常工作。As an example, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of two types of blocking interference provided in the embodiment of the present application. As shown in (A) of FIG. 3 , comb blocking interference occurs in the frequency hopping frequency band of the common channel, and as shown in (B) of FIG. 3 , broadband blocking interference occurs in the frequency hopping frequency band of the common channel. The frequency hopping frequency is the frequency range in which the terminal equipment can work. Interference (comb blocking interference or broadband blocking interference) in the frequency hopping frequency band will cause the signal quality of some frequency points to deteriorate at the interference location. If the interference location is a cell The time-frequency position of the public channel will make it impossible for the terminal equipment to perform cell search, which in turn will affect the normal operation of the communication system.
本申请提供一种通信方法和装置,能够提高公共信道的抗干扰能力,在工作频段内有干扰的情况下实现通信***的正常工作。The present application provides a communication method and device, which can improve the anti-interference ability of the public channel, and realize the normal operation of the communication system when there is interference in the working frequency band.

在一种实现方式中,在主公共信道发生干扰的情况下,终端设备可能无法接收到第一SSB,进而,无法通过第一SSB获取网络设备指示的主公共信道的时频位置。In an implementation manner, when interference occurs on the main common channel, the terminal device may not be able to receive the first SSB, and furthermore, cannot obtain the time-frequency position of the main common channel indicated by the network device through the first SSB.
在一种实现方式中,在主公共信道发生干扰的情况下,终端设备可以接收到第一SSB,但是由于接收到的信号存在干扰,则终端设备无法解调第一SSB,进而无法确定主公共信道的时频位置。In one implementation, when interference occurs on the primary common channel, the terminal device can receive the first SSB, but due to interference in the received signal, the terminal device cannot demodulate the first SSB, and thus cannot determine the primary common channel.

还应理解,网络设备发送第一SSB的时频资源,也即终端设备接收第一SSB的时频资源,可以称为第一时频资源,第一时频资源和第二时频资源是不完全重合的,即网络设备发送第一SSB的时频位置和发送第二SSB的时频位置是不同的。通过这种方式,当第一时频资源发生干扰时,可以通过第二时频资源接收第二SSB,并通过冗余公共信道进行小区接入。It should also be understood that the time-frequency resource for the network device to send the first SSB, that is, the time-frequency resource for the terminal device to receive the first SSB, may be referred to as the first time-frequency resource, and the first time-frequency resource and the second time-frequency resource are different.

以0~3000Mh频段为例,5G终端可以从低频到高频搜索SSB的中心频点:1.25MHz,1.35MHz…,一旦搜索到一个频点并获得同步后,就驻留在该小区上进入后续流程,如读取MIB/SIB1***消息等。若捕获失败或信息无法解调则跳到下一个候选位置。5G终端可以根据本终端频段的支持能力,预先配置有效的GSCN来更快速地搜索。Taking the 0-3000Mh frequency band as an example, 5G terminals can search for the center frequency points of SSB from low frequency to high frequency: 1.25MHz, 1.35MHz... Once a frequency point is searched and synchronized, it will reside in the cell and enter the follow-up Processes, such as reading MIB/SIB1 system messages, etc. If the capture fails or the information cannot be demodulated, skip to the next candidate position. 5G terminals can pre-configure valid GSCNs to search more quickly according to the support capabilities of the terminal's frequency band.
在一种实现方式中,该方法还包括:终端设备获取跳频参数,并根据跳频参数确定第二时频资源的位置,然后在第二时频资源上接收第二SSB。In an implementation manner, the method further includes: the terminal device acquires a frequency hopping parameter, determines a position of the second time-frequency resource according to the frequency hopping parameter, and then receives the second SSB on the second time-frequency resource.
当网络设备通过跳频参数发送动态的多个第二SSB时,终端设备可以使用同样或相似的跳频参数获得第二时频资源,然后正确接收第二SSB。When the network device sends multiple dynamic second SSBs through frequency hopping parameters, the terminal device can use the same or similar frequency hopping parameters to obtain the second time-frequency resources, and then correctly receive the second SSBs.
具体而言,可以预先在终端设备的寄存器中写入该跳频参数,也可通过定制的全球用户识别卡(universal subscriber identity module,USIM)加密写入该跳频参数。终端盲搜索期间只需捕获***主同步即可设置终端设备的晶振时钟与***时钟同步,从而确保终端设备的序列发生器与***对齐,然后跟踪跳频序列,获得至少一个未发生干扰的信道位置发送的第二SSB。Specifically, the frequency hopping parameter can be written in the register of the terminal device in advance, or can be encrypted and written into the frequency hopping parameter through a customized universal subscriber identity module (USIM). During the terminal blind search, only need to capture the main synchronization of the system to set the crystal oscillator clock of the terminal device to synchronize with the system clock, so as to ensure that the sequence generator of the terminal device is aligned with the system, and then track the frequency hopping sequence to obtain at least one channel position without interference The second SSB sent.
