[0002] With the large-scale coverage of 5G, the academic and industrial circles have begun to research and explore the next generation of mobile communication technology. As an important potential application background and development direction of 5G, wide-area coverage has received extensive attention from the industry in recent years. Wide-area coverage requires the establishment of a seamless three-dimensional global coverage network. In this context, there are still more than 3 billion people without basic Internet access worldwide, most of whom are distributed in rural and remote areas. The high cost of building a ground communication network makes it difficult for telecommunications operators to bear. At the same time, the communication needs of uninhabited areas and oceanic areas, such as high-speed communication for Antarctic scientific expeditions and broadband access for ocean-going cargo ships, cannot be met by deploying ground networks.

[0034] As described in the background section, cross-link interference reduces spectral efficiency in integrated air-ground networks. Related technologies mitigate this interference by introducing almost entirely empty subframes. The almost entirely empty subframe (ABS) technique was initially proposed to address control channel interference. If the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) of the interfering cell is transmitted in every subframe, it severely interferes with the PDCCH channel of the terminal in the affected cell, causing dropped calls. By configuring ABS subframes, the interfering cell reduces its transmission power or stops transmitting on certain physical channels within these almost entirely empty subframes, avoiding interference with the PDCCH channel and physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of the terminal in the affected cell. The terminal in the affected cell only decodes the PDCCH channel and transmits data on the almost entirely empty subframes configured in the interfering cell, effectively avoiding interference.

[0035] Introducing the aforementioned scheme, which relies on almost entirely empty subframes, into an integrated air-to-ground network architecture would sacrifice the transmission resources of high-altitude platform base stations in the air-based network. Therefore, effectively mitigating cross-link interference and improving system spectrum efficiency are urgent problems to be solved.

[0036] Based on this, this application provides a transmission configuration method for an integrated air-ground network. The method aims to maximize the spectral efficiency of the integrated air-ground network by determining the optimal values ​​for each parameter in the transmission configuration related to spectral efficiency. This addresses the problem of reduced spectral efficiency caused by cross-link interference in the integrated air-ground network.

[0128] It can be understood that when the function value of the utility function reaches the maximum, even if the cell obtains more time slot resources, the function value of the utility function will not increase accordingly. Based on Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment shown in Figure 2The embodiment shown allocates resources in the transmission configuration parameter aiming at maximizing the spectrum efficiency of the integrated air-ground network.

[0130] For example, the achievable rate R of the terminal of a certain cell after being allocated with time slot resources can traverse the value interval {R1, R2, R3, R4, R5}, and the values in the R interval are traversed one by one to the utility function, and it is obtained by calculation that when the achievable rate R of the terminal after being allocated with time slot resources is R2, the function value of the utility function is the maximum U.

[0132]

[0133] Among them, is the proportion of time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each uplink service, is the proportion of time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each downlink service, is the proportion of time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each uplink service, is the proportion of time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each downlink service, is the utility function value when the terminal performs downlink service, is the utility function value when the terminal performs uplink service, is the number of terminals accessing the base station to perform downlink service, is the number of terminals accessing the base station to perform uplink service, is the transmission rate requirement of each downlink service in the cell, is the transmission rate requirement of each uplink service in the cell, l is the proportion of almost blank subframes in the scheduling period, n,u is the proportion of first normal subframes in the scheduling period, n,da proportion of the scheduling period occupied by the second normal subframe, a number of terminals accessing the integrated network of satellite and terrestrial, a spectral efficiency of the integrated network of satellite and terrestrial for uplink service in the first normal subframe, a spectral efficiency of the integrated network of satellite and terrestrial for downlink service in the second normal subframe, a spectral efficiency of the integrated network of satellite and terrestrial for uplink service transmission in the almost blank subframe, a spectral efficiency of the integrated network of satellite and terrestrial for downlink service transmission in the almost blank subframe.

[0134] It can be understood that the uplink interference suffered by the cell can be expressed as a long-term average interference At this time, the network effect maximization problem of the overall network is equivalent to the utility maximization problem of each cell, and the above formula is arranged to obtain the following formula:

[0135]

[0136] The above formula is derived to obtain the proportion of the time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each uplink service the proportion of the time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each downlink service the proportion of the time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each uplink service the proportion of the time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each downlink service the following functions:

[0137]

[0139] In the case of the maximum value of the function value of the utility function, the maximum value of the function and the related parameters are substituted into the function to calculate the optimal value of the parameter combination in the time slot resource, i.e., the proportion of the time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each uplink service, the proportion of the time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each uplink service, the proportion of the time slots in the normal subframe occupied by each downlink service, and the proportion of the time slots in the almost blank subframe occupied by each downlink service.

[0140] The embodiments of the present application at least have the following beneficial effects: by constructing the utility function of the cell and taking the maximum value of the function value of the utility function as the target, the optimal value of the parameter combination in the time slot resource is obtained, which can improve the satisfaction degree of the user and the utilization rate of the time slot resource.
