Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of the Chinese patent application which entered the Chinese national stage on July 6, 2023, with application number 202180089529.3, and invention name “Method and system for uplink transmission based on a single CG in multi-TRP operation”. The entire contents of the application are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present embodiments relate generally to wireless communications, and more particularly to uplink transmission based on a single configuration grant (CG) in multiple transmit receive point (TRP) operations. Background Art
[0003] Dynamic scheduling is the main mode of operation of 5G New Radio (NR). For each transmission interval (e.g., time slot), the scheduler uses control signaling to instruct the UE to transmit or receive. Dynamic scheduling is flexible and can adapt to rapid changes in traffic behavior, but obviously requires associated control signaling. However, since it is desirable to avoid control signaling in some cases, NR supports transmission schemes that do not rely on dynamic grants. Summary of the invention

In the following discussion, the wireless communication network 100 may be any wireless network (e.g., a cellular network or a narrowband Internet of things (NB-IoT) network) and is referred to herein as "network 100."

The system 200 may include the following components and elements: The components and elements are configured to support known or conventional operating features that do not need to be described in detail herein. In an illustrative embodiment, the system 200 can be used in a wireless communication environment (e.g., as described above) Figure 1 The present invention relates to a method for transmitting (eg, sending and receiving) data symbols in a wireless communication environment 100 in an example embodiment.
[0041] The system 200 generally includes a base station 202 (hereinafter referred to as "BS 202") and a user equipment device 204 (hereinafter referred to as "UE 204"). The BS 202 includes a base station (BS) transceiver module 210 (also referred to as BS transceiver 210 or transceiver module 210), a BS antenna 212 (also referred to as downlink antenna 212 or antenna 212), a BS processor module 214 (also referred to as processor module 214), a BS storage module 216 (also referred to as storage module 216) and a network communication module 218, and the various modules are coupled and interconnected to each other via a data communication bus 220 as needed. UE 204 includes a user equipment (UE) transceiver module 230 (also referred to as UE transceiver 230 or transceiver module 230), a UE antenna 232 (also referred to as uplink antenna 232 or antenna 232), a UE storage module 234 (also referred to as storage module 234) and a UE processor module 236 (also referred to as processor module 236), each of which is coupled and interconnected to each other via a data communication bus 240 as needed. BS 202 communicates with UE 204 via a communication channel 250, which may be any wireless channel or other medium suitable for data transmission as described herein.
[0042] As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the system 200 may also include Figure 2In the embodiment of the present invention, the present invention can be used to implement the present invention in any number of modules outside the multiple modules shown in . It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the various illustrative blocks (blocks), modules, circuits and processing logic described in conjunction with the embodiments disclosed herein can be implemented with hardware, computer-readable software, firmware or any feasible combination thereof. In order to clearly illustrate the interchangeability and compatibility of such hardware, firmware and software, various illustrative components, blocks, modules, circuits and steps are generally described in terms of their functions. Whether such functions are implemented as hardware, firmware or software can depend on specific applications and the design constraints imposed on the entire system. Personnel familiar with the concepts described herein can implement such functions in a suitable manner for each specific application, but such implementation decisions should not be interpreted as limiting the scope of the present disclosure.
[0043] According to some embodiments, the UE transceiver 230 may be referred to herein as an "uplink" transceiver 230, which includes a radio frequency (RF) transmitter and an RF receiver, each of which includes circuitry coupled to an antenna 232. A duplex switch (not shown) may alternately couple the uplink transmitter or the uplink receiver to the uplink antenna in a time duplex manner. Similarly, according to some embodiments, the BS transceiver 210 may be referred to herein as a "downlink" transceiver 210, which includes an RF transmitter and an RF receiver, each of which includes circuitry coupled to an antenna 212. The downlink duplex switch may alternately couple the downlink transmitter or the downlink receiver to the downlink antenna 212 in a time duplex manner. The operation of the two transceiver modules 210 and 230 may be coordinated in time such that the circuitry of the uplink receiver is coupled to the uplink antenna 232 for receiving transmissions on the wireless transmission link 250 while the downlink transmitter is coupled to the downlink antenna 212. In some embodiments, there is tight time synchronization with a minimum guard time between changes in duplex direction.
[0044] The UE transceiver 230 and the base station transceiver 210 are configured to communicate via a wireless data communication link 250 and cooperate with an appropriately configured antenna 212 / 232 that can support a specific wireless communication protocol and modulation scheme. In some illustrative embodiments, the UE transceiver 230 and the base station transceiver 210 are configured to support industry standards, such as the Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard and the 5G standard in the early stages of development. However, it should be understood that the present disclosure is not necessarily limited to specific standards and related protocols in application. Instead, the UE transceiver 230 and the base station transceiver 210 can be configured to support alternative or additional wireless data communication protocols (including future standards or variations thereof).
[0045] According to various embodiments, BS202 may be, for example, an evolved node B (eNB), a serving eNB, a target eNB, a femto base station, or a pico base station. In some embodiments, UE 204 may be embodied in various types of user equipment, such as mobile phones, smart phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), tablet computers, laptop computers, wearable computing devices, and the like. Processor modules 214 and 236 may be implemented or realized with the following components designed to perform the functions described herein: a general-purpose processor, a content addressable memory, a digital signal processor, an application-specific integrated circuit, a field programmable gate array, any suitable programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof. In this manner, the processor may be implemented as a microprocessor, a controller, a microcontroller, or a state machine, and the like. The processor may also be implemented as a combination of multiple computing devices, such as a combination of a digital signal processor and a microprocessor, a combination of multiple microprocessors, a combination of one or more microprocessors combined with a digital signal processor core, or any other such configuration.
[0046] In addition, the steps of the method or algorithm described in conjunction with the embodiments disclosed herein can be directly embodied in hardware, firmware, software modules executed by processor modules 214 and 236, respectively, or any feasible combination thereof. Storage modules 216 and 234 can be implemented as random access memory (RAM) memory, flash memory, read-only memory (ROM) memory, erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) memory, electronically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) memory, registers, hard disks, removable disks, compact disk read-only storage (CD-ROM), or any other form of storage medium known in the art. In this regard, storage modules 216 and 234 can be coupled to processor modules 214 and 236, respectively, so that processor modules 214 and 236 can read information from storage modules 216 and 234, respectively, and write information to storage modules 216 and 234, respectively. Storage modules 216 and 234 can also be integrated into their corresponding processor modules 214 and 236. In some implementations, the storage modules 216 and 234 may each include a cache memory that stores temporary variables or other intermediate information during the execution of instructions to be executed by the processor modules 214 and 236, respectively. The storage modules 216 and 234 may also each include a non-volatile memory that stores instructions to be executed by the processor modules 214 and 236, respectively.
[0047] The network communication module 218 generally represents the hardware, software, firmware, processing logic and / or other components of the base station 202, which implements two-way communication between the base station transceiver 210 and other network components and communication nodes configured to communicate with the base station 202. For example, the network communication module 218 can be configured to support the Internet or the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) business. In a typical but non-limiting deployment, the network communication module 218 provides an 802.3 Ethernet interface so that the base station transceiver 210 can communicate with a traditional Ethernet-based computer network. In this way, the network communication module 218 can include a physical interface for connecting to a computer network (e.g., a Mobile Switching Center (MSC)). The terms "configured for", "configured to" and their combinations as used herein for a specific operation or function refer to a device, component, circuit, structure, machine, signal, etc. that is physically constructed, programmed, formatted and / or arranged to perform a specific operation or function.
[0048] Figure 3 A first example system according to the present embodiment is shown. Figure 3 As shown in the example of , the example system 300 includes configuration / indication 310, transmission parameters 312, TRP0 320, SRS resource set 0 322, TRP1 330, SRS resource set 1 332, PUSCH0 340 and PUSCH1 350.
[0049] If through Figure 3 As shown in the example in , for multi-TRP operation, since the channel conditions of the links between the UE and multiple TRPs are different, some configured / indicated transmission parameters (e.g., spatial relationship, precoding, power control, etc.) should be independent for each TRP. Accordingly, some parameters in the RRC configuration or DCI indication should be indicated separately for each TRP to obtain better performance. Therefore, it may be beneficial to indicate two indication information instead of one.
[0050] In the uplink, at least two transmission schemes without dynamic grants are supported, and these schemes are activated in different ways. These schemes include type 1 configuration grants, in which the RRC provides an uplink grant that includes activation of the grant, and type 2 configuration grants, in which the RRC provides a transmission period, and L1 / L2 control signaling is used to activate / deactivate the transmission.
[0051] Figure 4A A first example system for a first transmission scheme according to the present embodiment is shown. Figure 4A As shown in the example of , the example system 400A includes a UE 410, a network (NW) 420, an RRC signaling 422A, a monitoring physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) 430, and multiple PUSCHs 440.
[0052] Type 1 CG uses RRC signaling to set all transmission parameters, including period, time offset, and frequency resources, as well as possible modulation and coding schemes for uplink transmission. Once the UE receives the RRC configuration, it can start transmitting using the configuration grant at the time given by the period and offset. The RRC configuration takes effect immediately once it is received correctly. This time point may vary because it depends on whether RLC retransmission is required to convey the RRC command. To avoid this ambiguity, the time offset relative to the system frame number (SFN) is included in the configuration.
[0053] Figure 4B A second example system for a second transmission scheme according to the present embodiment is shown. Figure 4B As shown in the example of , the example system 400B includes a UE 410, a NW 420, RRC signaling 422B, a monitoring PDCCH 430, and multiple PUSCHs 440.
[0054] Type 2 CG is similar to Type 1 CG in that RRC signaling is used to configure the periodicity, but the transmission parameters are provided as part of the activation using PDCCH. When the UE receives the activation command, if there is data in the buffer, the UE transmits according to the pre-configured periodicity. If there is no data to send, similar to Type 1 CG, the UE will not send anything. Note that no time offset is required in this case because the activation time is well defined by the PDCCH transmission instant. The UE confirms the activation / deactivation of the configured authorization type 2 by sending a media access control layer (MAC) control element in the uplink. If there is no data waiting to be sent when the activation is received, the network will not know whether the UE did not send because it did not receive the activation command or because the transmit buffer was empty. This confirmation helps resolve this ambiguity.
[0055] In both schemes, multiple UEs may be configured with overlapping time-frequency resources in the uplink. In this case, it is up to the network to distinguish between transmissions from different UEs.
[0056] In addition, in the current NR specification, RRC IE ConfiguredGrantConfig is used to configure uplink transmission with a configured grant according to type 1 or type 2. Among them, when the field rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant is missing in ConfiguredGrantConfig, the UE uses the uplink (UL) grant and the parameters configured by the DCI addressed to the Configuration Scheduling-Radio Network Temporary Identifier (CS-RNTI) (Type 2) (for example, time domain and frequency domain allocation, antenna port, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) sequence initialization, precoder, rank, SRI, MCS, frequency hopping offset, PL-RS index, SFN, etc.).
[0057] In general, 5G NR includes multiple multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) features that facilitate the use of a large number of antenna elements in base stations in both sub-6 GHz and above 6 GHz bands. One of these MIMO features is that it supports multi-TRP operation. The key to this feature is to work with multiple TRPs to send data to the UE, thereby improving transmission performance. Since NR is in the process of commercialization, various aspects that need further enhancement can be identified from actual deployment scenarios. For PUSCH reliability enhancement based on multi-TRP operation, since the multi-TRP PUSCH transmission scheme based on a single DCI and CG has a stable design framework, it has been agreed that it should be studied first in Rel-17 NR. Based on this, up to two SRS resource sets can be configured, where the usage in the high-level parameter SRS-ResourceSet is set to 'nonCodebook'. Accordingly, two SRIs in one DCI field can be used for SRS resource indication of two non-codebook-based SRS resource sets, respectively, and for each non-codebook-based PUSCH transmission, the transmission rank and the number of one or more SRS ports should be the same.
[0058] In some embodiments, the first communication node receives RRC signaling from the second communication node. Based on this, the first communication node sends one or more uplink transmissions without dynamic authorization based on parameters configured only by RRC signaling (type 1) (received from the second communication node). In some embodiments, the first communication node may be a UE and the second communication node may be at least one of the following: a NW or a next generation node B (gNB). In some embodiments, the uplink transmission may be sent in a frequency range (FR) 1 or FR2. In some embodiments, the uplink transmission may be at least one of the following: a PUSCH, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), or an SRS. In some embodiments, the PUSCH may be at least one of the following: a PUSCH transmission, a PUSCH repetition, or a PUSCH opportunity. In some embodiments, the PUSCH transmission may be associated with SRS resources in two SRS resource sets (which are indicated in a single DCI). In some embodiments, the single DCI may be a DCI format 0_1 or a DCI format 0_2.
[0059] In some embodiments, the PUSCH transmissions associated with two SRS resource sets and their repetitions may be at least one of: allocated in two different time locations and the same frequency location, allocated in two different frequency locations and the same time location, and allocated in the same time location and the same frequency location and associated with two different code division multiplexing (CDM) groups. In some embodiments, some parameters in the RRC signaling may be configured with two values associated with two SRS resource sets. In some embodiments, the parameter with two values may be at least one of: an index of closed-loop power control, an index of a higher-layer parameter P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet to be used for the configuration, an index of a path loss reference signal, an indicator of SRS resources for each SRS resource set, an indicator of precoding information and the number of layers, a value of a higher-layer parameter dmrs-SeqInitialization, the value of which is related to the initialization of DMRS sequence generation for uplink transmissions with transform precoding disabled. In some embodiments, the value of the higher layer parameter antennaPort is related to the initialization of DMRS sequence generation for uplink transmission with switch precoding enabled.
[0060] In some embodiments, the association between the parameter having two configuration values and the SRS resource set can be configured by two fields of the higher-level parameter rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant, and the two fields of the higher-level parameter rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant are respectively associated with the two SRS resource sets or are respectively used for the two SRS resource sets. In some embodiments, the two fields of each parameter configured with two values are respectively associated with the two SRS resource sets or are respectively used for the two SRS resource sets.
[0061] In some embodiments, the first communication node receives RRC signaling from the second communication node. Based on this, the first communication node sends one or more uplink transmissions without a dynamic grant based on the RRC signaling (received from the second communication node) and the parameters provided by the PDCCH (addressed to the CS-RNTI) (Type 2).
[0062] In some embodiments, the first communication node may be a UE and the second communication node may be at least one of: a NW and a gNB. In some embodiments, the uplink transmission may be sent in FR1 or FR2. In some embodiments, the uplink transmission may be at least one of: a PUSCH, a PUCCH, or an SRS. In some embodiments, the PUSCH may be at least one of: a PUSCH transmission, a PUSCH repetition, or a PUSCH opportunity. In some embodiments, the PUSCH transmission may be associated with SRS resources from two SRS resource sets (which are indicated in a single DCI). In some embodiments, the single DCI may be a DCI format 0_1 with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a CS-RNTI, or a DCI format 0_2 with a CRC scrambled by a CS-RNTI.
[0063] In some embodiments, the PUSCH transmissions associated with two SRS resource sets and their repetitions may be at least one of: allocated in two different time locations and the same frequency location, allocated in two different frequency locations and the same time location, allocated in the same time location and the same frequency location and related to two different CDM groups.

At step 630, the example system determines whether the high-layer parameter is set to a codebook. Based on determining that the high-layer parameter is set to a codebook, the method 1000 proceeds to step 640. Alternatively, based on determining that the high-layer parameter is not set to a codebook, the method 600 proceeds to step 650.
[0115] At step 640 , the exemplary system receives downlink control information (DCI) of the SRS and a second parameter, the second parameter being indicated by at least one of: one or more SRIs, or one or more TPMIs. Then, the method 1000 proceeds to step 1102 .
[0116] At step 650 , the exemplary system receives downlink control information (DCI) of the SRS and a second parameter, the second parameter being indicated by one or more SRIs. Then, the method 1000 proceeds to step 1102 .

In some implementations, at least one of the example system 100 and the example system 200 performs the method 1100 according to the present implementation. In some implementations, the method 1100 starts at step 710.
[0118] At step 710, the example system receives downlink control information (DCI). Then, the method 1100 proceeds to step 720. At step 720, the example system has a plurality of second parameters in the DCI, the plurality of second parameters comprising at least one of: an index, an indicator, and a value. Then, the method 1100 proceeds to step 810.
[0119] At step 810, the example system sends an uplink transmission based on the indicated CG. Then, the method 1100 continues to step 820. At step 820, the example system receives a single DCI indicating multiple SRS resource sets. Then, the method 1100 continues to step 910. At step 910, the example system receives a command to determine uplink transmission parameters. In some embodiments, the method 1100 ends at step 910.
