AI Technical Summary
When a terminal switches from the source cell to the candidate cell of a network device, existing technologies struggle to quickly and accurately measure timing advance (TA), especially in L1/L2 inter-cell mobility scenarios. Improved transmit power control of the random access channel (RACH) is needed to enhance handover efficiency.
By receiving the first information sent by the network device, the terminal determines the transmission power of the Random Access Channel (RACH) and ensures that the transmission power of RACH conforms to the formula PRACH=min{PCMAX, Ptarget+PL+δ or PRACH=min{PCMAX, Ptarget+PL+Δ}, where PCMAX is the maximum transmission power, Ptarget is the target received power, PL is the path loss, δ or Δ is the power offset value, COUNTER is the number of retransmissions, and STEP is the power boost value, which is used to adjust the transmission power of RACH to improve the accuracy of TA measurement.
It improves the accuracy of TA measurement and handover efficiency of candidate cells, and ensures that the terminal sends RACH to the candidate cell with appropriate transmission power, thereby speeding up the cell handover process.

The core network includes, for example, at least one of an evolved packet core (EPC), a 5G core network (5GCN), and a next generation core (NGC).

The subjects shown in FIG. 1 are exemplary, and the communication system can include all or part of the subjects in FIG. 1, or other subjects other than FIG. 1.

[0176] Embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to long term evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), future radio access (FRA), new-radio access technology (RAT), new radio (NR), new radio access (NX), future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, ultra mobile broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, ultra-wideband (UWB), Bluetooth (Bluetooth (registered trademark)), public land mobile network (PLMN) network, device-to-device (D2D) system, machine to machine (M2M) system, internet of things (IoT) system, vehicle-to-everything (V2X), system using other power control methods, next-generation system expanded based on them, and the like. In addition, a plurality of systems can be combined (for example, combination of LTE or LTE-A and 5G, and the like).
[0177] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device can maintain a plurality of candidate cells for the terminal, and when the terminal needs to hand over the source cell, the terminal can select a candidate cell from the plurality of candidate cells as a target cell and hand over to the target cell.
[0178] Figure 1 bis a L1 / L2-based inter-cell mobility / LTM (handover) diagram according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0179] As shown in FIG. 1, the current source cell of the terminal 101 is cell 1, and the network device 102 can pre-configure multiple candidate cells (for example, cell 2, cell 3 and cell 4) for the terminal 101. As the terminal 101 moves, when the network determines that handover is needed based on the L1 measurement (beam measurement) result, a cell can be selected from the multiple candidate cells as a target cell, for example, the terminal 101 moves from cell 1 to cell 3, and the terminal 101 can be handed over to cell 3. Figure 1 b
[0180] Optionally, the embodiments of the present disclosure also consider measuring the TA of the terminal 101 to each candidate cell in advance, so as to complete the handover faster when performing cell handover.
[0181] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, at least a measurement mode of triggering a random access channel (RACH) based on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) order is supported.
[0182] Optionally, in order to reduce the time overhead of the TA measurement of the candidate cell, in the RACH process in the LTM, the transmission of the random access response (RAR) can not be performed. If the network device 102 does not correctly receive the RACH, the network device 102 is allowed to trigger the RACH for TA measurement through the PDCCH order again. However, because the first reception of the RACH has failed, in order to make this transmission as successful as possible, the transmission power of the RACH to the candidate cell can be considered to be increased. In some embodiments, the transmission power of the terminal 101 to the candidate cell satisfies the following relationship:
[0183] P PRACH,b,f,c (i) = min{P CMAX,f,c (i), P PRACH,target,f,c + PL b,f,c}
[0184] Wherein, P CMAX,f,c max represents the maximum transmission power of the terminal 101, P PRACH,target,f,c target represents the target reception power of the PRACH, and PL b,f,c represents the loss based on the reference signal.
[0185] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, if the terminal 101 does not receive the RAR, the terminal 101 considers that the RACH sent to the candidate cell fails, and the terminal 101 will perform retransmission of the RACH and increase the transmission power.
[0186] Optionally, the terminal 101 gradually increases the value of P PRACH,target,f,c each time the terminal 101 retransmits the RACH to the candidate cell.
[0187] In some embodiments, the value of P PRACH,target,f,c satisfies the following relationship:
[0188] P traget = preambleReceivedTargetPower + DELTA_PREAMBLE + (PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_COUNTER-1) x PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_STEP + POWER_OFFSET_2STEP_RA
[0189] wherein preambleReceivedTargetPower represents the initial random access preamble power, DELTA_PREAMBLE represents the power offset value determined based on the preamble format, PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_COUNTER-1 represents the number of retransmissions, PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_STEP represents the power increased each time, and POWER_OFFSET_2STEP_RA represents the value additionally increased in 2STEP.
[0190] Optionally, the value of preambleReceivedTargetPower is determined based on the network device 102 configuration, for example, the network device 102 configures preambleReceivedTargetPower for the terminal 101 based on the radio resource control (RRC) signaling.
[0191] Optionally, the value of DELTA_PREAMBLE is determined based on the table lookup of different physical channel formats. For example, tables TS38.321 7.3-1 and 7.3-2.
[0192] Optionally, the initial value of preambleReceivedTargetPower is 1, and the value is increased by one each time the RACH is retransmitted, and the maximum number of retransmissions is determined based on the network device 102 configuration. For example, based on the parameter preambleTransMax.
[0193] Optionally, the PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_STEP is determined by the network device 102 configuration. For example, the PREAMBLE_POWER_RAMPING_STEP is determined based on a RRC configured parameter powerRampingStep.
[0194] Optionally, the measurement of the TA of the candidate cell is a continuous process. In order to obtain the latest TA of the candidate cell, the network device needs to trigger the terminal to initiate a RACH every certain period of time. It can be considered that the network device adjusts the power of the next RACH sent by the terminal according to the power of each received RACH.
[0195] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, even if the RACH triggered by the PDCCH order, the terminal 101 cannot adjust the power according to the received power of the last RACH at the network device 102 side. In addition, if the RACH does not have the RAR process, the terminal 101 cannot determine whether the network device 102 successfully receives the RACH according to the RAR, and cannot determine whether the RACH retransmission and power lifting to the candidate cell of the network device 102 are needed.

[0441] In some embodiments, RACH is used to determine the TA of the candidate cell.
[0442] In some embodiments, the above method can include the method described in the above embodiments related to the communication system 100, the terminal 101, the network device 102, etc., which will not be described here.
[0443] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a power control method, as follows:
[0444] Scheme one: power control of random access channel (RACH) triggered by source cell for candidate cell timing advance (TA) measurement.
[0445] P RACH = min{P CMAX , P traget + PL + δ}
[0446] In some embodiments, for physical downlink shared channel command triggered random access channel (PDCCH order RACH) for timing advance (TA) measurement, an adjustment amount δ as shown in the above formula is added when calculating the power.
[0447] In some embodiments, the network device indicates the value to adjust the transmission power of the random access channel (RACH) for the timing advance (TA) measurement of the same candidate cell each time the random access channel (RACH) is triggered by a physical downlink shared channel order (PDCCH order) (downlink control information, DCI). (The value is 0 for the first transmission)
[0448] In some embodiments, the indication is indicated by the downlink control information (DCI) triggering the random access channel (RACH), and the correspondence between the indication field and the actual adjustment value is as shown in Table 2:
[0449] Table 2
[0450] Indicating domain Adjustment value 0 -2 1 -1 2 +1 3 +2
[0451] In some embodiments, the adjustment method includes Option 1 and Option 2:
[0452] Option 1: Adjust for the first uplink transmission each time.
[0453] Option 2: Adjust for the previous transmission each time, in which case the adjustment amount is a cumulative value Δ. That is Where δ m represents δ indicated by the downlink control information (DCI) at time (i-k+m). If the beam of the random access channel (RACH) changes, i.e. the synchronization signal block index (SSB index) in the physical downlink shared channel order (PDCCH order) changes, then Δ(i) = Δ(0) or Δ(i) = 0.
[0454] Scheme 2: The candidate cell does not correctly receive the preamble sequence, and performs random access channel (RACH) retransmission and power boosting.
[0455] In some embodiments, the source cell re-triggers the random access channel (RACH) for timing advance (TA) measurement by a physical downlink shared channel order (PDCCH order), and performs power boosting.
[0456] In some embodiments, the power is gradually boosted by borrowing the power boosting method. target .
[0457] In some embodiments, when the random access channel (RACH) is triggered by the downlink control information (DCI), the indication in the indication field indicates whether the last preamble reception is successful, if not, the current transmission of the random access channel (RACH) can be considered as a retransmission. The user records the number of retransmissions by a counter (COUNTER). And the transmission power is increased in the manner of the above formula. If the beam is changed or the network device indicates that the last preamble reception is successful before reaching the maximum number of transmissions, the power boosting is no longer performed.
[0458] In some embodiments, for example Figure 6 As shown, if the preamble is not correctly received at time t1, the network device re-triggers the random access channel (RACH) at time t2 to perform timing advance (TA) measurement. At this time, the terminal 101 will perform power boosting according to the indication of the network device, which determines that the current transmission can be considered as a retransmission. If the preamble is successfully received at time t2, the next time the random access channel (RACH) is triggered to measure the timing advance (TA), for example at time t3, the network device indicates that the triggered random access channel (RACH) is not a retransmission of the random access channel (RACH) at time t2.
[0459] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a power control method, which is described as follows:
[0460] A power control method for a random access process of candidate cell timing advance (TA) measurement. The terminal 101 receives the indication information of the network device, which is used to trigger the terminal 101 to initiate a random access to the candidate cell to measure the timing advance (TA)
[0461] In some embodiments, the indication information includes first indication information, which indicates the power adjustment value δ to the user.
[0462] Specifically, the value of the indication field and the adjustment value δ correspond in the manner of Table 3 as follows.
[0463] Table 3
[0464] Indicating domain Adjustment value 0 -2 1 -1 2 +1 3 +2
[0465] In some embodiments, the terminal 101 determines the transmission power of the preamble in the following formula:
[0466] P RACH = min{P CMAX ,P target + PL + Δ}
[0467] Option 1: Δ = δ, that is, adjustment is performed for the first uplink transmission each time.
[0468] Option2: where i is the current time, and the summation is over all δ received between time (i-k+1) and i. That is, each adjustment is made with respect to the previous transmission. In this case, the adjustment amount Δ is a cumulative value. If the beam of the random access channel (RACH) initiated to a certain candidate cell is changed, i.e., the synchronization signal block index (SSB index) in the physical downlink shared channel order (PDCCH order) is changed, then Δ is set to zero, i.e., Δ = 0 at this moment.
[0469] In some embodiments, the indication information includes second indication information.
[0470] In some embodiments, the second indication information is used to indicate to the terminal 101 whether the current triggered random access channel (RACH) is a retransmission.
[0471] In some embodiments, a counter is newly introduced for the terminal 101, which is used to record the number of retransmissions of the triggered random access channel (RACH), and the initial value is 1. In response to the indication that the current triggered random access channel (RACH) of the terminal 101 is a retransmission, the counter is incremented by 1.
[0472] In some embodiments, when the retransmission of the random access channel (RACH) is initiated, the terminal 101 determines the current transmit power of the terminal 101 in the following manner:
[0473] P RACH = min{P CMAX , P traget + PL}. Wherein P traget = preambleReceivedTargetPower + DELTA PREAMBLE + (COUNTER - 1) × STEP. COUNTER is the counter, and STEP is the power value raised each time, which can reuse the existing value or be reconfigured.
[0474] In some embodiments, when the retransmission of the random access channel (RACH) is initiated, the current transmit power of the terminal 101 is determined in the following manner:
[0475] P RACH = min{P CMAX , P traget + PL + Δ}.
[0476] Wherein Δ = δ or
[0477] Optionally, P traget= preambleReceivedTargetPower + DELTA_PREAMBLE + (COUNTER - 1) * STEP.
[0478] In some embodiments, in response to the second indication information indicating that a random access channel (RACH) currently triggered by the terminal 101 is not a one-time retransmission, or the indication information indicating that a beam change, i.e., a synchronization signal block index (SSB index) change, of the terminal 101 is initiated, the counter is reset to 1.
[0479] In some embodiments, the transmission power corresponds to the transmission power in the foregoing embodiments.
