Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, the field of wireless communication technology, and particularly to a method, apparatus, communication device, and storage medium for measuring channel state information. Background Technology

[0002] To reduce base station power consumption, some antenna-related spatial elements, such as antenna panels, can be dynamically turned on or off. Dynamically turning spatial elements on or off will cause changes in the actual transmitted beam or pilot signal. In related technologies, the terminal needs to report Channel State Information (CSI). Before reporting CSI, the terminal needs to perform CSI measurements, such as measuring the pilot signal (also known as the reference signal). Performing CSI measurements requires measurement resources. Therefore, if the base station dynamically turns off the beam or pilot signal used for CSI measurements, determining how to use the measurement resources for performing CSI measurements becomes a problem that needs to be considered.

[0113] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, this disclosure provides multiple embodiments to clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure. Of course, those skilled in the art will understand that the multiple embodiments provided in this disclosure can be executed individually, or in combination with the methods of other embodiments in this disclosure, or individually or in combination with some methods in other related technologies; this disclosure does not limit these aspects.

[0114] To better understand the technical solutions described in any embodiment of this disclosure, the application scenarios in the related technologies are first explained:

[0115] In one scenario embodiment, to reduce base station power consumption, some spatial elements can be dynamically turned on or off. These spatial elements can be antenna elements, antenna ports, transceiver links, beams, and antenna panels, etc. Dynamically turning spatial elements on or off may cause changes in the actual transmitted beams or pilots; for example, some beams may be turned off or some pilots may be turned off.

[0116] In one embodiment, the base station can configure candidate shutdownable spatial elements to the terminal and dynamically indicate the beams or pilots to be shut down, for example, by using downlink control information (DCI) or a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) to dynamically indicate the beams or pilots (or collectively referred to as spatial elements) to be shut down. In one embodiment, the time period for shutting down the spatial elements can also be indicated or configured.

[0117] In one embodiment, the terminal needs to report Channel State Information (CSI). Before reporting CSI, the terminal needs to perform CSI measurements. Performing CSI measurements requires measurement resources.

[0118] In one embodiment, the CSI reference resource is a specific time slot preceding the CSI reporting time. Methods for determining the CSI reference resource are defined in relevant protocols.

[0119] In one embodiment, both the non-zero power CSI reference signal (NZP CSI-RS) and the channel state information interference measurement (CSI-IM) belong to CSI-RS.

[0120] The measurement resources used to perform CSI measurements are illustrated in Table 1 below, showing the correspondence between high-level parameter settings and measurement resources:

[0121] Table 1

[0122]

[0123]

[0124] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for measuring channel state information, wherein the method is executed by a terminal, and the method includes:

[0125] Step 21: Based on the status indication information, determine the measurement resources used to measure Channel State Information (CSI);

[0126] The status indication information is used to indicate at least the time periods during which the spatial units of the base station are turned off and / or turned on.

[0127] Here, the terminal involved in the embodiments of this disclosure may be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, wearable device, vehicle terminal, roadside unit (RSU), smart home terminal, industrial sensing device and / or medical device, etc. In some embodiments, the terminal may be a Redcap terminal or a predetermined version of a New Radio (NR) terminal (e.g., an R17 NR terminal).

[0128] The base stations involved in this disclosure can be of various types, such as base stations for third-generation mobile communication (3G) networks, base stations for fourth-generation mobile communication (4G) networks, base stations for fifth-generation mobile communication (5G) networks, or other evolved base stations.

[0129] In one embodiment, the measurement resources may be time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources used to measure the CSI. For example, measurement resources may be time slots and symbols, etc.

[0130] In one embodiment, the spatial unit may be a functional unit associated with an antenna for wireless transmission. Exemplarily, the spatial unit may be at least one of the following:

[0131] Antenna unit;

[0132] Antenna port;

[0133] Transceiver link;

[0134] Beam;

[0135] Pilot; and

[0136] Antenna panel.

[0137] Here, the spatial unit being turned off could mean that the function corresponding to the spatial unit is disabled, such as the function of transmitting beams or pilot signals. It should be noted that the disabling of beams or pilot signals may affect the measurement results of CSI. For example, accurate CSI measurement requires 5 measurement sampling points, but if some measurement sampling points are during the pilot signal disabling period, the measurement results will deviate from the actual situation, affecting the CSI measurement results.

[0138] It should be noted that, in this disclosure, the measurement resources used to measure Channel State Information (CSI) can also be understood as the measurement resources used to perform CSI measurements. Performing CSI measurements can also be channel measurements and / or interference measurements.

[0139] In one embodiment, measurement resources for channel measurement and / or interference measurement for CSI measurement are determined based on status indication information; wherein the status indication information is used to indicate at least the time periods during which the spatial units of the base station are turned off and / or turned on.

[0140] In one embodiment, a status indication information sent by a base station is received, wherein the status indication information is used to indicate at least the time period during which the base station's spatial elements are turned off and / or turned on. Measurement resources for measuring Channel State Information (CSI) are determined based on the status indication information. Exemplarily, the time period during which the spatial elements are turned off and / or turned on can be dynamically indicated by a DCI (Distributed Channel Information Currency). For example, it can be assumed that the DCI (indicating that a pilot is turned off) takes effect immediately upon receipt, and the duration corresponding to the off period is a fixed duration configured by higher layers, for example, 20 ms.

[0141] In one embodiment, status indication information transmitted by a base station is received periodically, wherein the status indication information at least indicates the time periods during which the base station's spatial elements are turned off and / or turned on. Measurement resources for measuring Channel State Information (CSI) are determined based on the status indication information. Thus, the measurement resources can be updated in real time according to the status indication information.

[0142] In one embodiment, in response to determining measurement resources, a request for status indication information is sent to the base station, wherein the status indication information at least indicates the time periods during which the base station's spatial cells are turned off and / or turned on. The status indication information sent by the base station is received. Based on the status indication information, measurement resources for measuring Channel State Information (CSI) are determined.

[0143] In one embodiment, measurement resources for measuring Channel State Information (CSI) are determined based on status indication information; wherein the status indication information at least indicates the time periods during which the spatial elements of the base station are turned off and / or turned on; the measurement resources are associated with a CSI report. Exemplarily, different measurement resources correspond to different CSI reports. It is understood that the measurement results of CSI measurements performed based on the measurement resources can be included in the CSI report. One or a set of measurement resources corresponds to one CSI report.

[0144] In one embodiment, measurement resources for measuring Channel State Information (CSI) are determined based on status indication information; wherein the status indication information at least indicates the time periods during which the base station's spatial cells are turned off and / or turned on; the measurement resources are associated with a CSI report. CSI measurements are performed based on the measurement resources to obtain the CSI measurement results. A CSI report is sent to the base station, wherein the CSI report contains the measurement results.

[0145] In one embodiment, the configuration results of predetermined higher-layer parameters and the status indication information are obtained; wherein the status indication information is used to indicate at least: the time periods during which the spatial elements of the base station are turned off and / or turned on. Based on the configuration results of the predetermined higher-layer parameters and the status indication information, the measurement resources used to measure channel state information are determined; the predetermined higher-layer parameters include at least one of the following: a first parameter, a parameter for channel measurement; a second parameter, a parameter for interference measurement.

[0146] For example, please refer to Table 1 again. The predefined higher-level parameters can be the timeRestrictionFor-ChannelMeasurements and timeRestrictionForInterferenceMeasurements parameters configured by the protocol layer. For instance, the first parameter can be "timeRestrictionFor-ChannelMeasurements" and the second parameter can be "timeRestrictionForInterferenceMeasurements". The configuration result of the first and second parameters can be "Configured" or "notConfigured".

[0147] In one embodiment, configuration results of predetermined higher-layer parameters and the status indication information are obtained; wherein the status indication information is used to indicate at least: the time period during which the spatial unit of the base station is turned off and / or the time period during which it is turned on. In response to the first parameter not being configured and the status indication information indicating a time period during which the spatial unit is turned off, the measurement resource is determined to be: a non-zero power Channel State Information Reference Signal (NZP) CSI-RS resource whose time domain location precedes the Channel State Information (CSI) reference resource and is not within the time period during which it is turned off. The measurement resource is associated with a CSI report.

[0148] In one embodiment, the configuration results of predetermined higher-layer parameters and the status indication information are obtained; wherein the status indication information is used to indicate at least: the time period during which the spatial element of the base station is turned off and / or the time period during which it is turned on.

[0258] For example, in all embodiments of this disclosure, the status indication information is at least used to indicate the parameters for the base station's spatial unit being turned off and the parameters for being turned off. For example, the parameters for the base station's spatial unit being turned off and / or turned on can be: the time period during which the base station's spatial unit is turned off and / or the time period during which it is turned on. For example, this time period can include at least one of the following: a specific time point, duration, relative time offset value, relative time offset value of the start point, and relative time offset value of the end point; thus, the time when the base station's spatial unit is turned off and / or turned on can be determined by one or more parameters. Of course, these are just examples; the parameters for the base station's spatial unit being turned off and / or turned on can be any parameters that allow the UE to determine that the base station's spatial unit is turned off and / or turned on, and this disclosure does not limit this. The time period during which the base station's spatial unit is turned off can refer to the time length t between when the base station's spatial unit is turned off and when it is turned on. o The time length t o It can be any value, 0 < t o <∞; Similarly, the period during which a base station's spatial unit is activated can refer to the time length t between when the base station's spatial unit is activated and when it is deactivated. c The time length t c It can also be any value, 0 < t c <∞. For example, in the following embodiments of this disclosure, the parameters for the spatial unit of the base station being turned off and / or on can be: the time period during which the spatial unit of the base station is turned off and / or the time period during which it is turned on. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the time period during which the spatial unit of the base station is turned off means that the spatial unit of the base station is in a turned-off state; the time period during which the spatial unit of the base station is turned on means that the spatial unit of the base station is in a turned-on state.
