Problems solved by technology

[0006] For user signals, when hybrid beamforming technology is used, user-specific (UE-specific) beamforming technology can be used to achieve transmission coverage for corresponding users; but for public signals, there is currently no corresponding hybrid beamforming technology. The transmission technology of beamforming technology, so the large transmission loss of high-band spectrum resources will make the coverage of public signals in the hybrid beamforming technology will be greatly affected

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, in particular to a public signal transmission method and device in hybrid beamforming multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (Multiple Input Multiple Output, MIMO) technology. Background technique [0002] With the popularization and application of smart terminals and the continuous growth of new mobile service demands, the demand for wireless transmission rates is increasing exponentially. For this reason, when the fourth-generation mobile communication technology (4G) represented by LTE is being popularized and applied, the research and development of the fifth-generation mobile communication technology (5G) has already begun. Compared with 4G, 5G needs to meet several key technical indicators, such as: 1) The transmission rate is increased by 10 to 100 times, the user experience rate can reach 1Gb / s, and the user peak rate can reach 10Gb / s and above; 2) The densi...
