Problems solved by technology

[0004] One of the main problems of the acquisition method of downlink channel related information is that the uplink feedback overhead is relatively large, especially in LTE-A, for Co-ordinated Multi-Points (CoMP for short) transmission, in order to achieve optimal CoMP For operations such as preprocessing and selection of cooperative cells, the UE needs to feed back a large amount of channel-related information to the base station; in addition, because PMI, CQI and other information compress the downlink channel information to a certain extent, they cannot completely and accurately reflect the downlink channel information. This will have a certain impact on operations such as downlink resource scheduling, precoding, and coordinated cell selection, resulting in downlink transmission quality degradation
[0005] For the acquisition method of uplink channel related information, since SRS usually occupies the last symbol of each subframe, the overhead is relatively large, and even if only one user among all users sends SRS, the last symbol in the subframe needs to be vacated. This will also cause a lot of waste of resources

Embodiment 1

[0062] Embodiment 1: method for acquiring downlink channel information

[0063] In this embodiment, the TDD system of LTE-A is taken as an example. Its downlink behavior is a multi-antenna scenario of 4 transmissions and 4 receptions, that is, four antennas at the base station side of the transmitting end transmit, and four antennas at the receiving end UE also receive reception. The channel is 4*4 matrix; while the above behavior is a multi-antenna scenario of 2 transmissions and 4 receptions, that is, the transmitting UE uses two antennas to transmit each time, and the receiving base station has 4 antennas to receive, and its channel is a 2*4 matrix.

[0064] In order to measure the downlink interference information, the base station sends CRS or CSI-RS to the UE in the downlink, and the UE measures the downlink interference information based on this, and feeds it back to the base station. Since only the downlink interference information needs to be fed back, compared with th...

Embodiment 2

[0068] Embodiment 2: method for acquiring uplink channel information

[0069] This embodiment takes the LTE-TDD system as an example.

[0070] First, the base station performs uplink interference estimation and obtains uplink interference information;

[0071] Then, the base station sends the CRS and uplink interference information to the UE in the downlink, and the UE can measure the state information of the downlink channel according to the CRS, and obtain the equivalent state information of the uplink channel according to the reciprocity of the channel in TDD mode.

[0072] It should be noted that the number of downlink transmit antennas is usually more than the number of uplink antennas. For example, the downlink channel is a 4*4 matrix, while the uplink channel is a 1*4 matrix. The channel state information corresponding to the uplink is selected.

[0073] Secondly, after obtaining the state information of the uplink channel, and at the same time according to the uplink...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for acquiring information of a downlink channel, comprising the following steps: a terminal sends a detection pilot frequency and downlink interference information to abase station; the base station acquires uplink channel status information according to the detection pilot frequency so as to acquire equivalent downlink channel status information, and acquires downlink channel relevant information according to equivalent downlink channel status information and downlink interference information. The invention provides a system for acquiring downlink channel information, and also provides a method for acquiring uplink channel information. The method comprises the following steps: the base station sends the uplink interference channel status information and adownlink pilot frequency to the terminal; the terminal acquires downlink channel status information according to the downlink pilot frequency so as to acquire equivalent uplink channel status information, acquires uplink channel relevant information according to the equivalent uplink channel status information and uplink interference information, and sends the acquired uplink channel quality information to the base station. The invention also provides a system for acquiring the uplink channel information, and acquires channel information by utilizing channel reciprocity, thus reducing uplink expenditure.
