Search space channel estimation number distribution method and terminal equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a search space channel estimation number distribution method and terminal equipment. The method comprises the following steps that if the channel estimation number required bythe target unit search space of the terminal equipment exceeds the first channel estimation number, the channel estimation number corresponding to the target unit search space is redistributed, and the first channel estimation number is the channel estimation number configured by network side equipment for the target unit search space or the maximum channel estimation number supported by terminalequipment; wherein the sum of the second channel estimates of the target unit search space after redistribution is less than or equal to the first channel estimates. In the embodiment of the invention, by redistributing the channel estimation number corresponding to the target unit search space, the processing capacity of the terminal equipment can be fully utilized, the control resource distribution is maximized, the control channel distribution blocking probability is reduced, and meanwhile it is guaranteed that the channel estimation number configured by the network side equipment or the maximum channel estimation number supported by the terminal equipment is not exceeded.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field / terminal field, and in particular to a search space channel estimation number allocation method and terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] In a Long Term Evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE) system, a user equipment (User Equipment, UE) only monitors one physical downlink control channel (physical downlink control channel, PDCCH) channel. In the PDCCH, the UE blindly detects PDCCH candidates in a fixed search space, tries to demodulate downlink control information (DCI), and the total number of blindly detected PDCCH candidates is determined. The PDCCH uses a Cell-specific reference signal (CRS) for channel estimation. Since the CRS is cell-specific, the UE's channel estimation complexity does not increase linearly with the number of blind detections. [0003] The 5G NR system supports configuring multiple control resource sets (CORESET) and multiple search spaces for the UE, and fle...

[0005] If the search space is configured according to the number of channel estimates required in the worst case (that is, assuming that the CCEs allocated by candidates of different ALs will never overlap), although it can ensure that the maximum number of channel estimates supported by the UE is not exceeded, it will greatly reduce the allowed The configured number of blind detections will cause the system to use far less than the maximum number of channel estimates supported by the UE.

This allocation method cannot make full use of the UE's capabilities, greatly reduces the utilization rate of system control resources, and increases the probability of control channel allocation blocking
