Description

Sending method and receiving method of synchronous reference signal, base station and terminal
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of mobile communication technologies, and in particular, to a sending method, a receiving method, a base station, and a terminal for a synchronization reference signal.
Background
In an existing Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, a base station (eNB) periodically transmits a Synchronization reference Signal including a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) and a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS). The terminal (UE) can establish a rough downlink time-frequency synchronization relationship by monitoring the PSS and the SSS sent by the base station, identify the cell ID, obtain the radio frame timing and identify the TDD/FDD working mode.
In particular, the frequency domain structure of PSS and SSS signals is as shown in fig. 1, and regardless of the system bandwidth, the PSS and SSS always occupy 6 Resource Blocks (RBs), i.e. 1.08MHz bandwidth, where 62-point synchronization sequences are mapped onto 62 subcarriers (not including DC subcarrier) in the center of the system, and there are 5 idle subcarriers on the left and right, respectively, for providing interference protection.
The time domain structure of the PSS and SSS signals is related to the duplex mode of the system, as shown in fig. 2, for FDD mode, PSS signals are mapped to the last OFDM symbol ofslot 0 andslot 10, and SSS is mapped to the previous OFDM symbol of PSS. For TDD mode, the PSS signal is mapped to the third OFDM symbol (DwPTS portion of the special subframe) ofslot 2 and slot 12, and the SSS signal is mapped to the last OFDM symbol ofslot 1 and slot 11, as shown in fig. 3. I.e. SSS is mapped to the 3 rd symbol position ahead of PSS.
504 cell IDs are defined in LTE
Figure BDA0001118823820000011
Each cell ID corresponds to a specific downlink reference signal sequence and is divided into 168 cell ID groups
Figure BDA0001118823820000012
Each group contains 3 cell IDs
Figure BDA0001118823820000013
The mathematical relation is as follows:
Figure BDA0001118823820000014
wherein
Figure BDA0001118823820000015
The value range is 0-167, which represents the ID group number of the physical layer cell,
Figure BDA0001118823820000016
and the value range is 0-2, and the ID number in each physical cell ID group is represented.
In particular, the PSS signal may take 3 different sequences, specifically which sequence is taken with
Figure BDA0001118823820000021
In this regard, 3 cell IDs in each cell ID group correspond to different PSS sequences. The SSS signal may take 504 sequences in each slot (slot), specifically which sequence is associated with
Figure BDA0001118823820000022
It is related. Therefore, when the UE captures the PSS and SSS signals in sequence, the cell ID can be analyzed
Figure BDA0001118823820000023
It is used.
In the existing LTE technology, when the PSS and SSS are concentrated in the central 6 Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) of the system bandwidth, the following considerations may be considered:
1) the existing LTE system uses different system bandwidths, 1.4MHz (corresponding to 6 PRBs), 3MHz (corresponding to 15 PRBs), 5MHz (corresponding to 25 PRBs), 10MHz (corresponding to 50 PRBs), 15MHz (corresponding to 75 PRBs), and 20MHz (corresponding to 100 PRBs), respectively. The UE may not know how large the system bandwidth is specifically before acquiring PSS/SSS signals. If different system bandwidths use different PSS/SSS signal frequency domain locations, the UE will use different PSS/SSS signal acquisition procedures for the different system bandwidths, which will greatly increase the UE processing complexity;
2) since the PSS and SSS signals use the same frequency domain location and are closer in time domain, in some applications, the channel correlation of the PSS and SSS is higher and the difference is smaller. At this time, the UE may use the PSS signal for channel estimation and use the estimated channel to assist SSS signal detection, so as to improve the detection capability of SSS signal.
In addition, in the existing LTE technology, the problem of PSS/SSS signal detection capability is not generally considered too much. On one hand, the interference between stations is not too strong after the small stations are fully planned during deployment; on the other hand, the PSS/SSS signal is repeatedly transmitted at a smaller periodic interval (5ms or 10ms), and the UE may combine the PSS/SSS signal energy received at multiple periods to improve the detection capability of the PSS/SSS signal.
Aiming at high-capacity deployment scenes of some hot spot areas, the 5G technology provides 1Gbps user experience rate, dozens of Gbps peak rate and dozens of Tbps/km2The above-mentioned traffic density requirements cannot be effectively satisfied by only improving the spectral efficiency. Therefore, 5G technology researches Ultra-Dense networking (UDN) scenes and technology, and improves user throughput and regional throughput (bps/km) by increasing small station density in unit area to perform Ultra-Dense networking2) To meet 5G system capacity requirements.
In UDN scenarios and technologies, a plurality of small stations are included in a unit area, and the phenomenon of mutual signal interference between small stations may become very serious.
In particular, in the UDN scenario, it is often required to implement a time-frequency synchronization function between adjacent cells, so as to reduce mutual Interference of signals transmitted between adjacent cells by using some Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC), Coordinated Multi-Point Transmission (CoMP), and suppression techniques, for example.
However, in UDN scenarios, while maintaining time-frequency synchronization between adjacent small stations, if the existing PSS/SSS signal design continues to be used, i.e. the PSS and SSS are still concentrated in the central 6 PRBs of the system bandwidth, then multiple small stations will transmit PSS/SSS signals on the same time-frequency resources. The SSS signals transmitted by different small stations interfere with each other, so that the Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) of the SSS signals received by the UE is poor, and the cell ID cannot be correctly resolved.
In existing LTE network deployments, PSS/SSS signals are repeatedly transmitted with small periodic intervals (5ms or 10 ms). When there is inter-station interference, the UE may combine the PSS/SSS signal energy received in multiple periods to improve the detection capability of the PSS/SSS signal. However, in the UDN scenario, some small stations may turn On/Off function, i.e. will enter Off state when the small station is not transmitting traffic. When the small station is in the Off state, it will not transmit any Signal including the PSS/SSS Signal except for periodically transmitting the cell Discovery Reference Signal (DRS). The DRS signal transmission period is {40ms,80ms,160ms, … }, the DRS signal duration is 1-5 subframes, and the DRS signal contains a PSS/SSS signal. When the small station is in the Off state, the UE acquires rough time-frequency synchronization by capturing a PSS/SSS signal in a DRS signal and analyzes the cell ID of the Off small station from the rough time-frequency synchronization. Obviously, for Off small stations, the transmission density of the PSS/SSS signals is low, and it is difficult for the UE to effectively improve the detection capability of the PSS/SSS signals by accumulating the PSS/SSS signals of multiple periods for a long time.
Therefore, in the UDN scenario, the PSS/SSS signals sent by neighboring cells use the same time-frequency resource location, which may cause a severe mutual interference phenomenon, so that the UE cannot correctly receive the PSS/SSS signals, and further cannot correctly resolve the cell ID.
In order to solve the above problems, in the prior art, for example, by combining the PSS/SSS signal energies of multiple periods to improve the detection capability of the PSS/SSS signal, the PSS/SSS signal may not work normally in the UDN scenario. Therefore, a solution is needed to effectively reduce interference of a neighboring cell to a synchronization reference signal sent by the cell, and ensure cell ID identification and cell discovery capability of the cell in a UDN scenario.

In 5G technology, a larger system bandwidth is typically used, such as a minimum system bandwidth of 10MHz or 20 MHz. In this case, it is not necessary to limit the PSS/SSS signals to the central 6 PRBs of the system bandwidth for the purpose of generality. As shown in fig. 4, the embodiment of the present invention allows different small stations to use different SSS frequency domain resource locations, and the SSS frequency domain resources of small station 1(cell ID1), small station 2(cell ID2), and small station 3(cell ID3) shown in fig. 4 are different, so that SSS signals of multiple small stations may be staggered from each other, and therefore, it is expected to reduce interference between SSS signal pairs of adjacent small stations.
When the SSS signals are staggered, the neighboring cell may transmit data on the time-frequency resource where the local cell transmits the SSS signal, and the downlink data transmitted by the neighboring cell may also interfere with reception of the SSS signal by the local cell. In order to reduce interference of downlink data sent by an adjacent cell to the SSS signal of the cell, the embodiments of the present invention may increase the transmit power of the SSS signal of the cell, or decrease the transmit power of the downlink data of the adjacent cell, so as to effectively increase the received SINR of the SSS signal of the cell.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for sending a synchronization reference signal, which is applied to a base station side, and as shown in fig. 5, the method includes:
step 51, the base station selects a group of synchronous reference signal time frequency patterns from a plurality of groups of pre-configured synchronous reference signal time frequency patterns to obtain a first synchronous reference signal time frequency pattern.
And step 52, the base station sends the first synchronization reference signal by using the first synchronization reference signal time frequency pattern.
The synchronization reference signal in the prior art only includes one time frequency pattern, but the embodiment of the present invention pre-configures a plurality of groups of time frequency patterns for the synchronization reference signal in the above steps, and the base station selects one group of time frequency patterns to transmit the synchronization reference signal.
Specifically, the multiple groups of synchronization reference signal time frequency patterns of the embodiments of the present invention may be obtained by mapping the same synchronization reference signal sequence, wherein the frequency domain offset parameter (v) of each group of synchronization reference signal time frequency patternsshift) Different from each other, the frequency domain resource position of each group of synchronous reference signal time frequency pattern is according to the frequency domain offset parameter (v) of each group of synchronous reference signal time frequency patternshift) And (4) mapping. Instep 51, the base station may determine a first frequency domain offset parameter corresponding to the cell ID of the base station according to a mapping relationship between the frequency domain offset parameter and the cell ID established in advance; and then, determining the frequency domain resource position of the first synchronous reference signal time frequency pattern according to the first frequency domain offset parameter to obtain the first synchronous reference signal time frequency pattern.

Optionally, let fppK, where K is some predetermined positive integer.
When determining the first frequency domain offset parameter corresponding to the cell ID of the base station according to the mapping relationship between the preset frequency domain offset parameter and the cell ID, v may be established as followsshiftMapping relation with cell ID:

Figure BDA0001118823820000084
in the embodiment of the present invention, preferably, two types of synchronization reference signals, a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal, may be used similarly to the existing LTE technology. Wherein, the main synchronizing signal only has one time frequency pattern and is used for establishing downlink time frequency coarse synchronization; and the secondary synchronization signal is used to resolve the cell ID. The first synchronization reference signal is the secondary synchronization signal. In the method, the base station further sends a primary synchronization signal for establishing downlink time-frequency coarse synchronization, the primary synchronization signal only has a group of time-frequency patterns, and the time domain resource positions of the primary synchronization signal and the secondary synchronization signal have a predetermined timing relationship.
Different from the existing LTE technology, the auxiliary synchronizing signal is configured with a plurality of groups of time-frequency patterns, the time domain positions of the time-frequency patterns of the plurality of groups of auxiliary synchronizing signals are the same, the time domain position of the auxiliary synchronizing signal and the time domain position of the main synchronizing signal have a determined timing relation, but the frequency domain positions are different, and the frequency domain resource mapping position is formed by a frequency domain offset parameter vshiftAnd (6) determining.
Examples of the type of synchronization reference signal transmitted by the base station and the determination of the synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern are described above. In order to improve the received SINR of the synchronization reference signal, the embodiments of the present invention may also adopt the following multiple transmission schemes to improve the received signal quality at the terminal side.
For example, the base station uses a Power Boosting function, that is, a higher transmit Power is given to the synchronization reference signal than a transmit Power of each RE on a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), so that the transmit Power of the REs mapped by the synchronization reference signal is greater than the transmit Power of the REs mapped by the PDSCH. The ratio of the transmission power of the synchronization reference signal per RE to the transmission power of the PDSCH per RE is not set to α (e.g., α is 3dB to 6 dB). Or the value of alpha is specified in a standard protocol; or the equipment manufacturers of all the base stations respectively determine the value of alpha.
For another example, the base station may increase the SINR of the terminal reception signal by the muting function. Specifically, the base station determines REs mapped by an unused synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern to obtain silent REs, where the unused synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern is: the synchronous reference signal time frequency patterns except the first synchronous reference signal time frequency pattern in the multiple groups of synchronous reference signal time frequency patterns; the base station then starts the muting function for the muted REs on which no signal is transmitted (i.e. on which the transmit power is 0 w).
The implementation of the muting function can be implemented during the PDSCH resource mapping, and the muting REs are ignored by the Rate Matching (Rate Matching) technology, so as to avoid the PDSCH from being mapped onto the muting REs. Correspondingly, when the base station transmits by using the muting function based on Rate Matching, the terminal side may also ignore the muting REs by using a Rate Matching (Rate Matching) technique when demodulating the PDSCH.
Of course, the muting function can also be implemented after the PDSCH resource mapping, that is, the muting REs are punctured before transmission, so that the transmission power of the muting REs is 0. At this time, the UE may also attempt to receive PDSCH signals on the muted REs. Obviously, compared with the foregoing muting technology based on rate matching, the signal-to-noise ratio of the PDSCH signal received by the UE is reduced in the present implementation technology. Therefore, the aforementioned rate matching based muting technique is preferable.
Furthermore, the base station may also request other base stations to turn on Muting function on a specific synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern through an inter-station communication interface (e.g., S1 or X2 interface) to reduce inter-station interference. For example, the base station sends a first request message to the neighboring base station for requesting the neighboring base station to start the muting function for at least one group of synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns, and after receiving the first request message, the neighboring base station may start the muting function on REs mapped by the at least one group of synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns. Here, the first request message may include indication information (e.g., number of the time-frequency pattern, etc.) of the at least one group of synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns requesting muting.
Specifically, when a base station finds that interference at a first synchronization reference signal (e.g., SSS signal) is strong (e.g., the interference exceeds a preset range), the base station may request, through an inter-station communication interface, an adjacent base station to turn on a Muting function on a specific synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern. In addition, in order to discover the interference situation to which the SSS signal is subjected, the base station may ask the at least one UE to measure the channel quality at the SSS and feed back the channel quality measurement.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the base station may also perform the muting processing based on the request of other base stations, for example, when the base station receives a second request message sent by a neighboring base station for requesting to start the muting function for at least one group of synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns, the base station may start the muting function for REs mapped by the indicated synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns according to the second request message.
Of course, in the embodiment of the present invention, when any base station receives a muting request from another base station, the base station may select to perform muting operation on the requested synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern, or may not perform any processing.
When a base station selects to perform a muting operation on a certain synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern, the base station may notify indication Information (such as a number) of the synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern for performing the muting operation to a corresponding terminal through a System Information Block (SIB) and Radio Resource Configuration (RRC) signaling. The terminal further determines a synchronous reference signal time-frequency pattern of the base station for executing the silent processing according to the received system message or the wireless resource configuration signaling. When the base station performs PDSCH resource mapping, the base station ignores the synchronous reference signal time-frequency pattern for executing the silent operation through a rate matching technology. When demodulating the PDSCH, the terminal may ignore REs mapped by a synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern performing a muting operation through a rate matching technique, thereby obtaining a received signal.
The above describes the procedure of transmitting the above-mentioned synchronization reference signal according to the embodiment of the present invention from the base station side. The reception process of the synchronization reference signal will be further explained from the terminal side.
In the embodiment of the invention, the terminal performs blind detection on the first synchronous reference signal on more than two groups of synchronous reference signal time-frequency patterns according to a preset rule.
The base station still uses two types of synchronous reference signals for explanation, wherein the main synchronous signal only has one time frequency pattern and is used for establishing downlink time frequency coarse synchronization; the auxiliary synchronizing signal is used for analyzing the cell ID and is provided with a plurality of groups of time-frequency patterns, the time domain positions of the time-frequency patterns of the plurality of groups of auxiliary synchronizing signals are the same, the time domain positions of the auxiliary synchronizing signals and the time domain positions of the main synchronizing signals have a predetermined timing relationship, but the frequency domain positions of the time-frequency patterns of the plurality of groups of auxiliary synchronizing signals are different, and the frequency domain resource mapping positions of the auxiliary synchronizing signals are mapped by a frequency domain offset parameter vshiftAnd (6) determining.
When the terminal is in an Idle state (Idle), the terminal tries to detect the synchronization reference signals in a blind manner on at least two groups of synchronization reference signal time-frequency patterns. The process of the blind detection specifically comprises the following steps:
1) the terminal firstly detects a main synchronization signal which is sent by a base station and used for establishing downlink time-frequency coarse synchronization, and after the main synchronization signal of the base station is captured, a rough time-frequency synchronization relation between the terminal and the base station is established.
2) After establishing a rough time-frequency synchronization relationship, the terminal obtains timing information of the auxiliary synchronization signal according to the timing relationship between the main synchronization signal and the auxiliary synchronization signal, further receives the auxiliary synchronization signal based on the timing information of the auxiliary synchronization signal, converts the auxiliary synchronization signal to a frequency domain, and then continuously performs a step of blind detection on the cell ID, which specifically comprises the following steps:
● 2-1) the terminal determines the set of cell IDs to be verified (assumed to be the first set of cell IDs). In the worst case, the terminal will try to blindly detect all possible cell IDs. Of course, the network may also configure the terminal with a set of cell IDs that need to be detected blindly in advance.
● 2-2) extracting a cell ID from the first set of cell IDs as the current cell ID;
● 2-3) determining a first synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern corresponding to the current cell ID according to a first preset rule, and obtaining a first frequency domain resource position of the first synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern and a first synchronization reference signal sequence.
For example, the terminal may determine the frequency domain offset parameter corresponding to the current cell ID according to a mapping relationship between the frequency domain offset parameter and the cell ID obtained in advance; and then, according to the determined frequency domain offset parameter, determining the frequency domain resource position of the first synchronization reference signal time frequency pattern and the first synchronization reference signal sequence.
● 2-4) the terminal extracts a first frequency domain receiving sequence at a first frequency domain resource position from the received secondary synchronization signal, and judges whether the current cell ID is the cell ID of the base station according to the correlation between the first frequency domain receiving sequence and the first synchronization reference signal sequence (if the correlation matching result is higher than a predetermined threshold): and if so, outputting the current cell ID as the cell ID of the base station, otherwise, deleting the current cell ID from the cell ID set to be verified, and returning to the step 2-2.
In this embodiment, when the terminal is in a connected state, the serving base station may configure the terminal to listen to the synchronization reference signal of the cell of the other base station to identify the cell ID of the terminal, and at this time, the terminal receives an interception instruction sent by the serving base station, listens to the synchronization signal of the neighboring base station, and identifies the cell ID of the neighboring base station, where a specific processing flow is similar to the above-mentioned flow, and the difference is that:
when the serving base station and the adjacent base station keep time-frequency synchronization relationship, the terminal can directly receive the synchronization reference signals of other base station cells according to the timing relationship of the serving base station, that is, the terminal can receive the signals sent by the adjacent base station according to the time domain position corresponding to the auxiliary synchronization signal of the serving base station and convert the received signals to the frequency domain. Therefore, compared with the above flow, the terminal can skip the flow of thestep 1 and directly enter the flows of the following steps 3-1 to 3-4. The process at this time specifically includes:
● 3-1) the terminal determines the second cell ID set to be verified of the adjacent base station;
● 3-2) extracting a cell ID from the second set of cell IDs as the current cell ID;
● 3-3) determining a second synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern corresponding to the current cell ID according to a second preset rule, and obtaining a second frequency domain resource position and a second auxiliary synchronization signal sequence of the second synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern;
● 3-4) extracting a second frequency domain receiving sequence at a second frequency domain resource position from the received signal, and judging whether the current cell ID is the cell ID of the adjacent base station according to the correlation between the second frequency domain receiving sequence and a second auxiliary synchronization signal sequence: and if so, outputting the current cell ID as the cell ID of the adjacent base station, otherwise, deleting the current cell ID from the cell ID set to be verified, and returning to the step 3-2.
In order to reduce the complexity of blind detection, if a base station can determine the cell ID range of a cell of an adjacent base station, the base station may send indication information of the cell ID of the adjacent base station to a terminal, where the indication information carries the value range of the cell ID of the adjacent base station; at this time, in step 3-1, the terminal may obtain the second cell ID set according to the indication information, so as to reduce the blind detection cell range and the blind detection complexity.
In addition, since the base station may perform the muting processing of the REs, correspondingly, the terminal side may also improve the quality of the received signal through the muting processing. Specifically, when the base station selects to perform the muting operation on a certain synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern, the base station may notify the indication information (e.g., number) of the synchronization reference signal time-frequency pattern for performing the muting operation to the corresponding terminal through SIB messages, RRC signaling, and the like. In the blind detection process of the first synchronous reference signal, when demodulating PDSCH and obtaining a received signal, the terminal ignores silent RE through a rate matching technology, wherein the silent RE is a pre-obtained RE mapped by a synchronous reference signal time-frequency pattern of a base station executing silent processing.
