Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communications, and in particular to a control method and device for a hybrid automatic repeat request function. Background Art

[0002] Information may be lost during channel transmission. In order to maintain information integrity, it is necessary to retransmit information so that all information can be received correctly. A retransmission mechanism is designed in the communication system to ensure data transmission reliability, including: the Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) mechanism of the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer and the Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) mechanism of the Radio Link Control (RLC) layer.

[0003] The calculation of the minimum number of HARQ processes required in the communication system is related to the transmission delay, especially the round-trip time (RTT). In the integrated space-ground system, due to the different satellite altitudes and the different bend pipe transmission or on-board transmission methods, the RTT size is different, and the minimum number of HARQ processes required is also different. Table 1 provides an example of the minimum number of HARQ processes required in different communication scenarios. When the subcarrier spacing is 15kHz, the minimum number of HARQ processes required in different scenarios such as terrestrial networks (Terrestrial), low earth orbit satellite systems (LEO, 1500km), medium earth orbit satellite systems (MEO, 10000km), and earth orbit satellite systems (GEO, 35786km) can be estimated.

[0059] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to enable the scope of the present invention to be fully communicated to those skilled in the art.

It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable in appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in a sequence other than those illustrated or described herein, for example.

"And / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects.

[0061] The following description provides examples and does not limit the scope, applicability, or configuration set forth in the claims. Changes may be made to the functions and arrangements of the elements discussed without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Various examples may appropriately omit, replace, or add various procedures or components. For example, the described methods may be performed in an order different from that described, and various steps may be added, omitted, or combined. In addition, features described with reference to certain examples may be combined in other examples.

[0062] As described in the background technology, the number of HARQ processes in the air-ground integrated system is far more than the maximum 16 HARQ processes that the UE can support as defined by the ground network, which requires the receiving end to have a larger storage space. The semi-static HARQ disabling mechanism can reduce the requirement for storage space, that is, the network end can configure the switch state of HARQ. When the HARQ function is turned off, there will be no uplink ACK / NACK feedback for downlink data transmission, thereby reducing the number of HARQ processes and reducing the requirement for storage space.

[0063] The new radio (NR) system supports dynamic indication of HARQ transmission. The fields and bit numbers related to HARQ in downlink control information (DCI) format 1-0 and DCI format 1-1 are shown in Table 2:

[0064] DCI field Format 1-0 (bits) Format 1-1 (bits) Number of HARQ processes 4 4 New Data Indicator (NDI) 1 1 Redundancy Version (RV) 2 2 Downlink Allocation Index (DAI) 2 0,2,4 TPC command for scheduling PUCCH 2 2 PUCCH resource indication 3 3 HARQ feedback timing indication for PDSCH transmission 3 0,1,2,3

[0065] Table 2

[0066] The HARQ feedback timing indication field transmitted by the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is used to indicate the timing relationship of the HARQ ACK / NACK feedback corresponding to the scheduled PDSCH.

[0067] The network side device may configure the first high-level parameter, such as dl-DataToUL-ACK, through RRC signaling. A configuration example of the first high-level parameter is shown in the following pseudo code:

[0068] dl-DataToUL-ACK SEQUENCE(SIZE(1..8))OF INTEGER(0..15) OPTIONAL,--NeedM

[0069] In the above configuration, the high-level parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK configures the length of the timing value sequence to range from 0 to 8, and the timing value to range from 0 to 15.

[0070] As shown in Table 2, when using DCI format 1-0, the HARQ feedback timing indication field of PDSCH transmission includes 3 bits, and the range of selectable timing values ​​is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}. When using DCI format 1-1, the size of its bit is It is related to the length I of the timing value sequence configured by the high-level parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK. The bit length of this field can be 1 to 3 bits. The mapping relationship between the field value and the timing value is shown in Table 3.

[0071]

[0072] Table 3

[0073] When the HARQ function is turned off, there is no uplink ACK / NACK feedback in the PDSCH transmission, so there is no need to configure the corresponding feedback slot timing relationship. In different application scenarios, different services have different requirements for the number of HARQ processes. For example, when the user terminal switches from the terrestrial network to the satellite network, the HARQ mechanism can be turned off dynamically. Therefore, considering different application scenarios and the user's ability to handle the HARQ process, it is also possible to support the dynamic indication of the HARQ switch mechanism through DCI to improve the flexibility of HARQ switch control. In order to reduce the impact on the DCI format and size (size) in the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention reuses the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission to dynamically indicate the switch status of the HARQ function.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 1 A control method for a hybrid automatic repeat request function provided by an embodiment of the present invention, when applied to a network side device (such as a base station or a satellite, etc.), includes:

[0075] Step 11, when the network side device needs to shut down the HARQ function of the terminal, the network side device sends a first DCI to the terminal, wherein the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the first DCI is a first value or a second value, the first value does not correspond to the timing value, and the second value corresponds to the timing extension value.

[0076] Here, the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission (for the convenience of description, the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission is referred to as the indication field below) is the first value or the second value. For example, there is no corresponding timing value (i.e., k in Table 3) for the first value, that is, there is no corresponding k value for the first value. At this time, the first value can be used to instruct the terminal to turn off the HARQ function. For another example, the second value corresponds to a preset time slot timing extension value, and the time slot timing extension value is a value other than the timing value pre-configured by the terminal. For example, assuming that the timing value ranges from 0 to 15, and a time slot timing extension value different from any value in the range of 0 to 15 is configured, such as 16, the second value can be used to instruct the terminal to turn off the HARQ function.

[0077] Specifically, the timing value may be a time slot timing value, and the timing value sequence may be a time slot timing value sequence.

[0078] It can be seen from the above that the embodiment of the present invention realizes dynamic indication of the on / off state of the HARQ function by multiplexing or redefining the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the DCI, thereby reducing the storage space requirement on the receiving end.

[0079] For example, the network side device may determine, based on the terminal status information reported by the terminal, that the number of HARQ processes that the terminal can support is less than a preset threshold, or that the available storage space of the terminal is less than a preset value or a preset ratio, and then execute the above step 11 to send the first DCI to the terminal to instruct the terminal to turn off the HARQ function. For another example, the network side device may send the first DCI to the terminal to instruct the terminal to turn off the HARQ function based on the indication information of the channel quality reported by the terminal when the channel quality between the network side device and the terminal meets the preset quality requirement.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field is the first value, the network side device may further configure a timing value sequence for the terminal before the above step 11, wherein the length I of the timing value sequence is such that log 2 (I) is a non-integer. For example, the network side device may send a first RRC signaling to the terminal, wherein the first RRC signaling carries a first high-level parameter (such as dl-DataToUL-ACK) for configuring the timing value sequence, and the length I of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is such that log 2 (I) is a non-integer.

[0081] In this way, the number of bits of the indication field in the first DCI is There are reserved values ​​that do not correspond to any timing values, specifically:

[0082] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 3, the length of the indication field is 2 bits, and the first value is 11 in binary;

[0083] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 5, the length of the indication field is 3 bits, and the first value is 101, 110 or 111 in binary;

[0084] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 6, the length of the indication field is 3 bits, and the first value is 110 or 111 in binary;

[0085] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 7, the length of the indication field is 3 bits, and the first value is 111 in binary.

[0086] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field is the second value, the network side device may further send a second RRC signaling to the terminal before the above step 11, and the second RRC signaling carries a second high-level parameter (such as dl-DataToUL-ACK) for configuring the timing value sequence, and the timing value sequence includes the time slot timing extension value. For example, assuming that the timing value range is 0 to 15, and the time slot timing extension value is 16, at this time, the timing value sequence configured by the second RRC signaling includes 16. Of course, the timing value sequence may also include various candidate values ​​of the time slot timing (i.e., the timing value configured by the RRC signaling, such as the values ​​0 to 15 in the previous text), wherein the value of the time slot timing extension value is different from the candidate value of the time slot timing.

[0087] Here, the time slot timing extension value is located at a preset position in the timing value sequence, and the second value is used to indicate the preset position in the time slot timing extension value. For example, the preset position may be the head position in the timing value sequence (i.e., the first value in the queue), so, referring to Table 3, the second value is binary all 0s, which is used to indicate the first value in the queue.

[0088] Through the above steps, the embodiment of the present invention can reuse the HARQ feedback timing indication field of PDSCH transmission to dynamically indicate the on / off state of the HARQ function, thereby realizing flexible control of the HARQ function and reducing the storage space requirement on the receiving end.

[0089] The method of the embodiment of the present invention is described below from the perspective of the receiving end.

[0090] Please refer to Figure 2 The control method of the hybrid automatic repeat request function provided by the embodiment of the present invention, when applied to the terminal side, includes:

[0091] Step 21: The terminal receives the first DCI sent by the network side device.

[0092] Step 22, when the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the first DCI is a first value or a second value, the terminal stops the HARQ feedback of the PDSCH transmission, wherein the first value does not correspond to the timing value, and the second value corresponds to the timing extension value.

[0093] Through the above steps, the embodiment of the present invention can reuse the HARQ feedback timing indication field of PDSCH transmission to dynamically instruct the terminal to turn off the HARQ function, thereby achieving flexible control of the HARQ function and reducing the storage space requirement on the receiving end.

[0094] For example, when the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field is the first value, the terminal may further receive a first RRC signaling sent by the network side device before receiving the first DCI, wherein the first RRC signaling carries a first high-level parameter for configuring the timing value sequence, and the length I of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is set such that log 2 (I) is a non-integer.

[0095] Specifically, when the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 3, the first value is 11 in binary;

[0096] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 5, the first value is 101, 110 or 111 in binary;

[0097] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 6, the first value is 110 or 111 in binary;

[0098] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the first high-level parameter is 7, the first value is 111 in binary.

[0099] For another example, when the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field is the second value, the terminal may also receive a second RRC signaling sent by a network-side device before receiving the first DCI, and the second RRC signaling carries a second high-level parameter for configuring the timing value sequence, and the timing value sequence includes the time slot timing extension value. In addition, the timing value sequence may also include: various candidate values ​​of the time slot timing, wherein the value of the time slot timing extension value is different from the candidate value of the time slot timing.

[0100] Specifically, the time slot timing extension value is located at a preset position in the timing value sequence (such as the head position, a specific position in the middle of the queue, or the tail position, etc.); the second value is used to indicate the preset position in the time slot timing extension value. For example, when the preset position is the head position in the timing value sequence (i.e., the first value in the queue), as shown in Table 3, the second value is all 0s in binary, which is used to indicate the first value in the queue.

[0101] Several more specific examples are provided below to further describe the method of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0102] Example 1:

[0103] When the length of the timing value sequence configured by the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK is 3, 5, 6 or 7, that is, the sequence length does not meet the log 2 When (I) is an integer, the bit values ​​of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the multiplexed DCI format 1-1 are all 1, indicating that the HARQ function is turned off.

[0104] Optionally, when the base station determines that the HARQ function needs to be turned off according to the application scenario or the number of HARQ processes supported by the UE, the timing value sequence length configured in the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK may not satisfy the log 2(I) is an integer value, such as 3, 5, 6 or 7. In particular, considering the size overhead of DCI, the length of the timing value sequence configured by dl-DataToUL-ACK is 3, so that the length of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission only needs 2 bits, so when the bit value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission is binary '11', it indicates that the terminal turns off the HARQ function.

[0105] For example, the timing value sequence (sequence) configured by the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK is {1,5,8,12,13}. It can be seen that the sequence includes 5 elements and its length is 5. According to Table 3, when the HARQ function is turned on, the value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission can only be binary '000', '001', '010', '011', '100' to be mapped to the corresponding slot timing value. The other values ​​of this field, '101', '110', '111', are in an idle state. Therefore, it is possible to consider reusing the bit value of this field, such as '111', as a special value for turning off the HARQ function.

[0106] The above scheme can dynamically turn off the HARQ function through the special sequence length of the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK and the idle state value of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission without changing the DCI format and the RRC parameter value range.

[0107] Example 2:

[0108] The value range of the timing value (slottiming) of the timing value sequence (sequence) configured by the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK is expanded. For example, the value range can be expanded from (0..15) to (0..16), and the value 16 is added. The value 16 is used as the slot timing extension value. By multiplexing the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in DCI format 1-1, when the slot timing extension value corresponding to the value of the indication field is 16, it indicates that the HARQ function is turned off. A pseudo code example of the above configuration is given below: dl-DataToUL-ACK SEQUENCE(SIZE(1..8))OF INTEGER(0..16)OPTIONAL,--Need M

[0109] The above pseudo code expands the range of the slot timing of the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK configuration timing value sequence from (0..15) to (0..16). When configuring the sequence value, RRC configures 16 as an optional value, and this value 16 is located at the first position of the dl-DataToUL-ACK configuration timing value sequence. In this way, when the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the multiplexed DCI format 1-1 is all 0, the corresponding slot timing is 16, indicating that the HARQ function is turned off. In addition, the length of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the DCI format 1-1 can be directly 1, and the value of '0' indicates that the HARQ function is turned off, which is equivalent to designing a flag that can turn off the HARQ function in the RRC. By enabling this flag in the DCI, the terminal can be instructed to turn off the HARQ function.

[0110] For example, the timing value sequence (sequence) configured by the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK is {16,1,5,8}, that is, the queue length (size) is 4. According to Table 3, the number of bits in the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission is 2 at this time. When its value is '00', the corresponding slot timing value is 16, which means that the HARQ function is turned off.

[0111] This solution can expand the sequence value range of the RRC parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK configuration without changing the DCI format, so that the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission can be multiplexed to indicate the corresponding timing value of the slot timing extension value (such as 16), thereby dynamically turning off the HARQ function. In addition, the value 16 can also be regarded as a flag set by RRC, and this flag is enabled by DCI. At this time, the size of the HARQ feedback timing indication field of the PDSCH transmission in the DCI is not limited by the sequence length configured by dl-DataToUL-ACK.

[0112] From the above, it can be seen that the above method proposed in the embodiment of the present invention can dynamically turn off the HARQ function, solve the problems of large transmission delay in the air-ground integrated system, large storage space at the receiving end caused by too many HARQ processes, etc. In addition, the embodiment of the present invention can also dynamically and flexibly indicate the switch state of the HARQ function in the DCI, without changing the existing DCI format and length, with good compatibility and simple implementation.
