Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) port mapping method and related devices. Background Art

[0002] In high-frequency communications, phase noise has a significant impact on transmission performance. Phase noise refers to the phase shift of a signal after it is transmitted through the antenna due to the non-ideality of the antenna device. To solve this problem, the receiving device needs to measure the phase noise to determine the specific information of the phase noise (for example, the signal phase shift value caused by the phase noise), thereby removing the impact of the phase noise from the data signal. The network device can configure one or two PTRS ports for the terminal device to send PTRS. This enables the measurement of phase noise.

[0003] When the terminal device sends the PTRS corresponding to each PTRS port, a specific precoding matrix needs to be used. The PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port can be generated using the precoding matrix used by the terminal device when transmitting data streams. When the terminal device transmits multiple data streams, or the terminal device uses multiple demodulation reference signal (DMRS) ports, the precoding matrices corresponding to each data stream or each DMRS port are different. One data stream corresponds to one DMRS port. Therefore, the terminal device can determine the precoding matrix used by the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port by determining the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port.

[0121] The terminal device and network device of this application are introduced below.

The terminal device may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, or a handheld device with wireless connection function, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem.

[0123] Terminal equipment, also known as user equipment (UE), mobile station (MS), mobile terminal (MT), customer premise equipment (CPE), etc. Terminal equipment is a device that includes wireless communication functions (providing voice / data connectivity to users). For example, a handheld device with wireless connection function, or a vehicle-mounted device, etc. At present, some examples of terminal equipment are: mobile phones, tablet computers, laptops, PDAs, mobile internet devices (MID), wearable devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, augmented reality (AR) devices, wireless terminals in industrial control, wireless terminals in Internet of Vehicles, wireless terminals in self-driving, wireless terminals in remote medical surgery, wireless terminals in smart grids, wireless terminals in transportation safety, wireless terminals in smart cities, or wireless terminals in smart homes, etc. For example, the wireless terminal in unmanned driving can be a drone, helicopter, or airplane. For example, the wireless terminal in the Internet of Vehicles can be a vehicle-mounted device, vehicle equipment, vehicle-mounted module, vehicle, or ship. The wireless terminal in industrial control can be a camera, robot, or robotic arm. The wireless terminal in a smart home can be a TV, air conditioner, sweeper, speaker, or set-top box.

[0124] It should be noted that the terminal device can be a device or apparatus with a chip, or a device or apparatus with an integrated circuit, or a chip, chip system, module or control unit in the device or apparatus shown above, and this application does not limit it. It should be noted that in this application, when referring to the terminal device, it can refer to the terminal device itself, or it can refer to the chip, functional module or integrated circuit in the terminal device that completes the method provided in this application, and this application does not limit it.

[0125] A network device may be a device in a wireless network. For example, a network device may be a device deployed in a wireless access network to provide wireless communication functions for a terminal device. For example, a network device may be a radio access network (RAN) node that connects a terminal device to a wireless network, and may also be referred to as an access network device, a RAN entity, an access node, a network node, or a communication device.

[0126] Specifically, the network device may be an access network device for a cellular system related to the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). For example, a 4G communication system, or a 5G communication system. The network device may also be an access network device in an open access network (open RAN, O-RAN or ORAN) or a cloud radio access network (cloud radio access network, CRAN). Alternatively, the network device may also be an access network device in a communication system obtained by integrating two or more of the above communication systems.

[0127] The network equipment includes, but is not limited to: evolved Node B (eNB), radio network controller (RNC), Node B (NB), base station controller (BSC), base transceiver station (BTS), home base station (e.g., home evolved NodeB, or home Node B, HNB), baseband unit (BBU), access point (AP) in wireless fidelity (WIFI) system, macro base station, micro base station, wireless relay node, donor node, wireless controller in CRAN scenario, wireless backhaul node, transmission point (TP) or transmission and receiving point (TRP), etc., and can also be network equipment in 5G mobile communication system. For example, the next generation NodeB (gNB), TRP, TP in NR system; or, one or a group of antenna panels (including multiple antenna panels) of base stations in 5G mobile communication system; or, the network equipment can also be a network node constituting a gNB or a transmission point. For example, a centralized unit (CU), a distributed unit (DU), a centralized unit control plane (CU-CP), a centralized unit user plane (CU-UP), or a radio unit (RU), etc. CU and DU can be set separately, or can also be included in the same network element, such as BBU. RU can be included in a radio frequency device or a radio frequency unit. For example, in a remote radio unit (RRU), an active antenna unit (AAU) or a remote radio head (RRH). Alternatively, the network device can also be a server, a wearable device, a vehicle or an on-board device, etc. For example, the access network device in the V2X technology can be a road side unit (RSU).

[0128] It should be noted that in different systems, CU (or CU-CP and CU-UP), DU or RU may also have different names, but those skilled in the art can understand their meanings. For example, in an open radio access network (ORAN) system, CU may also be called an open centralized unit (O-CU) or an open CU, DU may also be called an open distributed unit (O-DU), CU-CP may also be called an open centralized unit control plane (O-CU-CP), CU-UP may also be called an open centralized unit user plane (O-CU-UP), and RU may also be called an open radio unit (O-RU), which is not limited in this application. Any of the CU, CU-CP, CU-UP, DU and RU in this application may be implemented by a software module, a hardware module, or a combination of a software module and a hardware module.

[0129] Optionally, for network elements in the ORAN system, each network element may implement the protocol layer functions shown in Table 1 below.

[0130] Table 1

[0131]

[0132] It should be noted that, in the ORAN system, the network device in the present application may be one or more network elements in Table 1 above.

[0133] The following describes the architecture of the CU and DU of the access network device. The access network device includes at least one CU and at least one DU. Optionally, the access network device also includes at least one RU.

[0134] The following is an introduction using an access network device including a CU and a DU as an example. The CU has some functions of the core network, and the CU may include a CU-CP and a CU-UP. The CU and the DU may be configured according to the protocol layer functions of the wireless network they implement. For example, the CU is configured to implement the functions of the packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer and the protocol layers above (for example, the RRC layer and / or the SDAP layer). The DU is configured to implement the functions of the protocol layers below the PDCP layer (for example, the RLC layer, the MAC layer, and / or the physical (PHY) layer). For another example, the CU is configured to implement the functions of the protocol layers above the PDCP layer (such as the RRC layer and / or the SDAP layer), and the DU is configured to implement the functions of the PDCP layer and the protocol layers below (for example, the RLC layer, the MAC layer, and / or the PHY layer, etc.).

[0135] When the CU includes a CU-CP and a CU-UP, the CU-CP is used to implement the control plane function of the CU, and the CU-UP is used to implement the user plane function of the CU. For example, when the CU is configured to implement the functions of the PDCP layer, the RRC layer, and the SDAP layer, the CU-CP is used to implement the control plane function of the RRC layer and the PDCP layer, and the CU-UP is used to implement the user plane function of the SDAP layer and the PDCP layer.

[0136] CU-CP can interact with network elements in the core network for implementing control plane functions. The network elements in the core network for implementing control plane functions can be access and mobility function network elements, such as access and mobility management function (AMF) in 5G systems. The access and mobility function network elements are responsible for mobility management in mobile networks, such as location update of terminal devices, registration network of terminal devices, switching of terminal devices, etc.

[0137] CU-UP can interact with network elements in the core network that are used to implement user plane functions. Network elements in the core network that are used to implement user plane functions, such as the User Plane Function (UPF) in the 5G system, are responsible for forwarding and receiving data in terminal devices.

[0138] The above configuration of CU and DU is only an example, and the functions of CU and DU can also be configured as needed. For example, the CU or DU can be configured to have the functions of more protocol layers, or the CU or DU can be configured to have partial processing functions of the protocol layer. For example, some functions of the RLC layer and the functions of the protocol layers above the RLC layer are set in the CU, and the remaining functions of the RLC layer and the functions of the protocol layers below the RLC layer are set in the DU. For another example, the functions of the CU or DU can be divided according to the service type or other system requirements. For example, by delay, the functions that need to meet the smaller delay requirements for processing time are set in the DU, and the functions that do not need to meet the delay requirements are set in the CU.

[0139] DU and RU can cooperate to jointly implement the functions of the PHY layer. A DU can be connected to one or more RUs. The functions of DU and RU can be configured in a variety of ways according to the design. For example, DU is configured to implement baseband functions, and RU is configured to implement mid-RF functions. For another example, DU is configured to implement high-level functions in the PHY layer, and RU is configured to implement low-level functions in the PHY layer or to implement the low-level functions and RF functions. The high-level functions in the physical layer may include a part of the functions of the physical layer, which is closer to the MAC layer, and the low-level functions in the physical layer may include another part of the functions of the physical layer, which is closer to the mid-RF side.

[0140] It should be noted that the network device can be a device or apparatus with a chip, or a device or apparatus with an integrated circuit, or a chip, chip system, module or control unit in the aforementioned device or apparatus, and this application does not limit it. It should be noted that in this application, when referring to a network device, it can refer to the network device itself, or it can refer to a chip, functional module or integrated circuit in the network device that completes the method provided in this application, and this application does not limit it.

[0141] To facilitate understanding of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 2 Two possible communication systems to which the method provided in the embodiments of the present application is applicable are shown.

[0142] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the communication system includes at least one network device. Figure 1 The network device 111 shown in the figure, the communication system also includes at least one terminal device. Figure 1 The terminal device 121 and the terminal device 122 are shown. The network device 111 can communicate with the terminal device 121 and the terminal device 122.

[0143] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is another schematic diagram of the communication system according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the communication system may include at least two network devices. Figure 2 The network device 211, the network device 212 and the network device 213 shown in FIG. The communication system also includes at least one terminal device. For example, Figure 2 The terminal device 221 shown in FIG. The terminal device 221 may be provided with communication services by multiple network devices. For example, Figure 2 As shown, network device 211 can transmit with terminal device 221, network device 212 can transmit with terminal device 221. Network device 213 can transmit with terminal device 221. That is to say, one terminal device can be provided with communication services by multiple network devices at the same time.

[0144] The technical terms involved in this application are introduced below.

[0145] DMRS: used to estimate the channel that the PUSCH passes through to obtain channel information, and the network device can receive and process the PUSCH according to the channel information.

[0146] DMRS port: DMRS resources may include one or more DMRS ports, each DMRS port corresponds to a DMRS, and the DMRS is used to estimate the channel information of the channel experienced by the data in the data stream corresponding to the DMRS. Each DMRS port corresponds to a data stream, and different DMRS ports or different data streams use different precoding matrices.

[0147] PTRS: used to measure the phase noise of the signal caused by the non-ideality of the antenna device. Specifically, phase noise refers to the phase shift of the signal after the signal is transmitted through the antenna due to the non-ideality of the antenna device. The network device can receive the uplink PTRS and data from the terminal device to obtain specific information about the phase noise. Then, the network device uses the specific information about the phase noise to compensate the data for phase noise.

[0148] PTRS port: The terminal device can be configured with one or two PTRS ports, each of which corresponds to one PTRS. Each PTRS port corresponds to one data stream or one DMRS port. The PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port can be transmitted using the precoding matrix corresponding to the data stream or the DMRS port.

[0149] Codebook: includes fully coherent codebook, partially coherent codebook and non-fully coherent codebook. Fully coherent codebook means that all antenna ports of the terminal device can be combined to precode the same data stream. Partially coherent codebook means that some antenna ports of the terminal device can be combined to precode the same data stream. Non-coherent codebook means that no two antenna ports of the terminal device can be combined to precode the same data stream.

[0150] Single TRP transmission mode: The terminal device transmits with a single TRP. For example, the terminal device uses a single antenna panel or a single beam to send data to a single TRP. From the perspective of the maximum number of transmission streams, the single TRP transmission mode includes a single TRP transmission mode in which the maximum number of transmission streams does not exceed 4 (i.e., single codeword transmission), and a single TRP transmission mode in which the maximum number of transmission streams is greater than 4 (i.e., dual codeword transmission). From the perspective of configuration, the single TRP transmission mode includes the terminal device being configured as a single TRP transmission mode, and the terminal device being configured as a multi-TRP mode but falling back to a single TRP transmission mode during actual scheduling.

[0151] Multi-TRP transmission mode: The terminal device transmits with multiple TRPs. Multi-TRP transmission modes include time domain multiplexing (TDM) transmission mode, single frequency network (SFN) transmission mode and SDM transmission mode. In TDM transmission mode, the terminal device repeatedly transmits copies of the same data to two TRPs in time division. In SFN transmission mode, the terminal device sends the same data stream of the same data to two TRPs at the same time. In SDM transmission mode, the terminal device sends different data streams of the same data to two TRPs at the same time.

[0152] Panel: refers to the antenna panel, which can be the antenna panel of the network device or the antenna panel of the terminal device. An antenna panel generally has one or more antennas, which are arranged into an antenna array to perform beamforming to form a simulated beam. The antenna array can generate simulated beams pointing in different directions. That is to say, multiple simulated beams can be formed on each antenna panel, and beam measurement can be used to determine which simulated beam is the best for the antenna panel. The terminal device can be equipped with multiple antenna panels, which can be distributed in different positions and facing different directions. This can ensure that no matter which direction the terminal device faces, at least one antenna panel is facing the network device and can transmit data with the network device. The terminal device can turn on all antenna panels at the same time for transmission. Alternatively, in order to reduce the power consumption of the terminal device, the terminal device can also use only a single antenna panel for transmission at a time, and other unused antenna panels can be turned off. Whether the antenna panel of the terminal device is on or off generally needs to be notified to the network device, that is, the terminal device and the network device generally need to exchange antenna panel status information.

[0153] In the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the antenna panel means the antenna panel of the terminal device. In the protocol, the antenna panel can be represented by a panel, or a panel index, etc. In addition, the antenna panel can also be implicitly represented in other ways, for example, the antenna panel can also be represented by an antenna port (such as a channel status information reference signal (CSI-RS) port, an SRS port, a DMRS port, a PTRS port, a cell reference signal (CRS) port, a time-frequency tracking reference signal (TRS) port, a synchronization signal-broadcast channel measurement resource block (synchronization signal and physical broadcast channelblock, SSB) port, etc.) or an antenna port group. The antenna panel can also be represented by resources (such as CSI-RS resources, SRS resources, DMRS resources, PTRS resources, CRS resources, TRS resources, SSB resources, etc.) or resource groups. The antenna panel can also be characterized by a certain channel (such as physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), PUSCH, physical random access channel (PRACH), physical downlink sharing channel (PDSCH), physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), physical broadcast channel (PBCH), etc.). The antenna panel can also be characterized by beam, quasi-co-location (QCL), transmission configuration indicator state (TCI-state), spatial relation or an index configured in QCL, TCI-state, spatial relation. The antenna panel can also be characterized by beam group, QCL group, TCI-state group, spatial relation group, etc. The antenna panel can also be characterized by the terminal capability parameter set reported by the terminal device. There is a corresponding relationship between the terminal capability parameter set and the panel.A terminal capability parameter set includes relevant terminal capabilities corresponding to a panel, for example, the maximum number of transmission layers, the maximum number of SRS ports, the maximum transmission power, etc. corresponding to a panel.

[0154] In high-frequency communications, phase noise has a significant impact on transmission performance. Phase noise refers to the phase shift of a signal after it is transmitted through the antenna due to the non-ideality of the antenna device. To solve this problem, the receiving device needs to measure the phase noise to determine the specific information of the phase noise (for example, the signal phase shift value caused by the phase noise), thereby removing the impact of the phase noise from the data. Figure 3 As shown, the base station is used as a receiving device and the terminal device is used as a transmitting device. The terminal device sends PTRS while sending data. The base station measures the PTRS to obtain specific information about the phase noise. In uplink transmission, the terminal device can use one or two PTRS ports, each PTRS port corresponds to a PTRS, which is used to independently measure the specific information of the phase noise corresponding to a group of antennas of the terminal device.

[0155] When the terminal device sends the PTRS corresponding to each PTRS port, a specific precoding matrix needs to be used. The PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port can be generated using the precoding matrix used during data transmission. When the terminal device transmits multiple data streams, or when the terminal device uses multiple DMRS ports, the precoding matrices corresponding to each data stream or each DMRS port are different. Among them, one data stream corresponds to one DMRS port. The network device indicates to the terminal device which data stream (or which DMRS port) the precoding matrix of the PTRS corresponding to a PTRS port uses. Specifically, the network device sends a DCI to the terminal device. The DCI is used by the network device to schedule the terminal device for PUSCH transmission. The DCI includes a PTRS-DMRS association field. The PTRS-DMRS association field is used to indicate the DMRS ports corresponding to or associated with each PTRS port of the terminal device. A PTRS port is associated with a corresponding DMRS port, and the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port can be generated by the precoding matrix of the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port.

[0156] On the other hand, multiple PUSCH transmission modes are currently supported, including single TRP transmission mode and multi-TRP transmission mode. There are two types of single TRP transmission modes, namely, single TRP transmission mode with a maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams less than or equal to 4, and single TRP transmission mode with a maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams greater than 4. The maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams refers to the number of data streams transmitted by the terminal device to the network device.

[0157] In the communication protocol, the network device indicates the DMRS port associated with each PTRS port through the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI. As shown in Table 2, there are two scenarios, namely, scenario 1 (Case 1) and scenario 2 (Case 2).

[0158] Table 2

[0159]

[0160] In scenario 1, when the network device configures a PTRS port for the terminal device, the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams is less than or equal to 4, the terminal device uses Table 7.3.1.1.2-25 in the communication protocol to determine the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port. For details about Table 7.3.1.1.2-25, see the following description.

[0161] In scenario 2, when the network device configures two PTRS ports for the terminal device, the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams is less than or equal to 4, the terminal device uses Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 in the communication protocol to determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports. For details about Table 7.3.1.1.2-26, see the following description.

[0162] Table 7.3.1.1.2-25

[0163]

[0164]

[0165] For example, Table 7.3.1.1.2-25 is used for the scenario where PUSCH is transmitted using a single PTRS port. The terminal device can determine the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port through the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and Table 7.3.1.1.2-25. The length of the PTRS-DMRS association field can be 2 bits. It should be noted that the name of Table 7.3.1.1.2-25 is not limited in this application. In future communication protocols, as long as the content shown in the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-25 is included, it can be understood as Table 7.3.1.1.2-25 shown in this application.

[0166] Table 7.3.1.1.2-26

[0167]

[0168] Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 is used for the scenario where PUSCH uses two PTRS ports (including PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1) for transmission. The terminal device determines the DMRS ports corresponding to PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1 respectively through the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and Table 7.3.1.1.2-26. Specifically, as shown in Table 7.3.1.1.2-26, the up to four DMRS ports of PUSCH are divided into two groups, each group includes two DMRS ports, and each group of DMRS ports corresponds to one PTRS port. For example, the first group of DMRS ports corresponds to PTRS port 0 (or the first PTRS port), and the second group of DMRS ports corresponds to PTRS port 1 (or the second PTRS port). In other words, for example, the first group of DMRS ports shares PTRS port 0 (or the first PTRS port), and the second group of DMRS ports shares PTRS port 1 (or the second PTRS port). The first bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field (i.e., the high bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field) can be used to indicate which DMRS port in the first group of DMRS ports is associated with PTRS port 0. The second bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field (the low bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field) can be used to indicate which DMRS port in the second group of DMRS ports is associated with PTRS port 1.

[0169] It should be noted that the SRS resource set indication field is a field in the DCI, and the SRS resource set indication field only exists when the network device has configured two SRS resource sets for multi-TRP transmission or multi-panel transmission for the terminal device. Therefore, the absence of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI indicates that the network device has not configured two SRS resource sets for multi-TRP transmission or multi-panel transmission for the terminal device, that is, the PUSCH transmission is configured as a single TRP transmission mode. When the network device has configured two SRS resource sets for multi-TRP transmission or multi-panel transmission for the terminal device, the DCI has an SRS resource set indication field, and the SRS resource set indication field has four possible values, namely 00, 01, 10, and 11. Among them, if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00, it indicates that the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI adopts the first TRP or the first SRS resource set for transmission. If the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 01, it indicates that the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI adopts the second TRP or the second SRS resource set for transmission. When the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 10 or 11, it indicates that the DCI-scheduled PUSCH adopts the first TRP and the second TRP for transmission, or indicates that the DCI-scheduled PUSCH adopts the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set for transmission (i.e., multi-TRP transmission or multi-panel transmission). In other words, when the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, it means that the network device has configured a multi-TRP transmission mode for the terminal device, but the DCI-scheduled PUSCH actually adopts a single TRP transmission mode for transmission.

[0170] When the network device configures two PTRS ports for the terminal device, the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams of the terminal device is less than or equal to 4, the terminal device always uses Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 to determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports. However, Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 is designed for non-fully coherent codebooks. If the DCI-scheduled PUSCH uses a non-fully coherent codebook, the terminal device can determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports through Table 7.3.1.1.2-26. However, if the DCI-scheduled PUSCH uses a fully coherent codebook, the terminal device cannot use 7.3.1.1.2-26 to determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports.

[0171] If the DCI-scheduled PUSCH uses a fully coherent codebook, the reason why the terminal device cannot use 7.3.1.1.2-26 to determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports is that Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 needs to divide the DMRS ports of the PUSCH into two groups of DMRS ports according to the antenna port, and the two groups of DMRS ports correspond to the two PTRS ports respectively. Specifically, according to the codebook used by PUSCH (the codebook determines the correspondence between the DMRS port and the antenna port), the DMRS ports corresponding to the first antenna port and the third antenna port are divided into one group, and the DMRS ports corresponding to the second antenna port and the fourth antenna port are divided into one group. When the fully coherent codebook is used, each DMRS port corresponds to all antenna ports, so there is no way to divide the DMRS ports into two groups according to the above method. Therefore, if the DCI-scheduled PUSCH uses a fully coherent codebook, the terminal device cannot use 7.3.1.1.2-26 to determine the DMRS ports corresponding to the two PTRS ports.

[0172] Therefore, for the single TRP transmission mode in which the maximum number of PUSCH transmission streams is less than or equal to 4, how the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port is a question worth considering. The present application provides a corresponding technical solution. When the first condition is met, the terminal device uses an uplink PTRS port, and the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the uplink PTRS port according to the first corresponding relationship. The terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the uplink PTRS port. It is convenient for the terminal device to send PTRS through the precoding matrix of the DMRS port. The terminal device can correctly perform PTRS transmission and ensure the performance of PUSCH transmission.

[0173] The technical solution of the present application is introduced below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0174] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the PTRS port mapping method of the present application. Figure 4 , methods include:

[0175] 401. When a first condition is met, the terminal device uses an uplink PTRS port, and the terminal device determines a DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to a first corresponding relationship.

[0176] Among them, the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2. That is to say, the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2, which is a prerequisite. Specifically, the network device can configure the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS for the terminal device through configuration information. For details, please refer to the relevant introduction in step 400a below, which will not be repeated here.

[0177] Optionally, the first condition includes a combination of one or more of the following:

[0178] The SRS resource set indication field in the DCI does not exist. The DCI is used by the network device to schedule the terminal device to perform PUSCH transmission;

[0179] The value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is 00 or 01;

[0180] The DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission uses a fully coherent codebook;

[0181] The network device configures the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device;

[0182] The terminal device supports transmission using a fully coherent codebook; or,

[0183] The codebook set configured by the network device for the terminal device includes a fully coherent codebook.

[0184] It should be noted that the combination of the above multiple items can be a combination of logical OR operation, logical AND operation, or mixed operation. The mixed operation can be a combination of logical, operation, and / or, and logical AND operation.

[0185] Some possible implementations of the first condition are shown below.

[0186] Implementation method 1: The first condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is equal to 00 or 01, and the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI uses a fully coherent codebook, and the network device configures the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device.

[0187] Implementation method 2: The first condition includes: the value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is equal to 00 or 01, the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI adopts a fully coherent codebook, and the network device configures the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device.

[0188] Implementation method 3: The first condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is equal to 00 or 01, and the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI adopts a fully coherent codebook.

[0189] Implementation method 4: The first condition includes: the value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is equal to 00 or 01, and the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI adopts a fully coherent codebook.

[0190] The first corresponding relationship includes a corresponding relationship between an uplink PTRS port and a DMRS port.

[0191] Optionally, the first correspondence relationship includes: a correspondence relationship between the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field and the DMRS port, and the four values ​​of the PTRS-DMRS association field correspond to at most four DMRS ports of the PUSCH. It can be understood that the first correspondence relationship is essentially the correspondence relationship between the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field and the DMRS port described in the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-25. The PTRS-DMRS association field is a field in the DCI, and the PTRS-DMRS association field is used to indicate the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port.

[0192] Optionally, the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to the first corresponding relationship, including: the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and the first corresponding relationship. In other words, the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-25.

[0193] For example, the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field is 0. From the above table 7.3.1.1.2-25, it can be seen that the DMRS port corresponding to this PTRS port is 1. st Alternatively, the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field is 1. From the above table 7.3.1.1.2-25, it can be seen that the DMRS port corresponding to this PTRS port is 2. nd Alternatively, the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field is 2. From the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-25, it can be seen that the DMRS port corresponding to this PTRS port is 3. rdAlternatively, the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field is 3. From the above table 7.3.1.1.2-25, it can be seen that the DMRS port corresponding to this PTRS port is 4. th Schedule DMRS port.

[0194] Optionally, the length of the PTRS-DMRS association field may be 1 bit, 2 bits, or 3 bits, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0195] Optionally, the terminal device is configured with two PTRS ports, namely PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1. Therefore, the terminal device can select one of the two PTRS ports. The following introduces several possible implementations of the terminal device using one PTRS port. This application is still applicable to other implementations, and this application does not limit them specifically.

[0196] In a possible implementation, the terminal device adopts a PTRS port including: the terminal device adopts PTRS port 0. That is, the terminal device adopts PTRS port 0 by default.

[0197] In another possible implementation, the terminal device adopts a PTRS port including: the terminal device adopts PTRS port 1. That is, the terminal device adopts PTRS port 1 by default.

[0198] In another possible implementation, the terminal device adopts a PTRS port including: determining a PTRS port adopted by the terminal device according to the value of the SRS resource set indication field. For example, if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 0; if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 01, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 1. For another example, if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 1; if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 01, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 0.

[0199] In a possible implementation, this embodiment divides the scenario 2 shown in Table 2 into two scenarios, namely, scenario 2.1 and scenario 2.2, or in other words, this embodiment divides the scenario 2 shown in Table 2 into two conditions (i.e., the first condition and the second condition), and each condition corresponds to a scenario. As shown in Table 3, this embodiment subdivides the scenario 2 (Case2) shown in Table 2 into scenario 2.1 and scenario 2.2.

[0200] Table 3

[0201]

[0202] The first condition in step 401 corresponds to scenario 2.1 shown in Table 3 above. It can be seen that this embodiment stipulates that: when the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2, the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, the DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission adopts a fully coherent codebook, and the network device configures the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device, the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to Table 7.3.1.1.2-25. Thereby avoiding the problem that the terminal device cannot determine the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port. The technical solution of this embodiment realizes a more reasonable division of scenarios, thereby enabling the terminal device to determine the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port, enabling the terminal device to correctly perform PTRS transmission, and ensuring the transmission performance of PUSCH.

[0203] Optional, Figure 4 The illustrated embodiment further includes steps 401a to 401c. Steps 401a to 401c may be performed after step 401.

[0204] 401a, the terminal device sends the uplink PTRS corresponding to the one PTRS port to the network device according to the precoding matrix corresponding to the DMRS port. Correspondingly, the network device receives the uplink PTRS from the terminal device.

[0205] Specifically, the terminal device sends an uplink PTRS corresponding to a PTRS port according to the precoding matrix corresponding to the DMRS port. The DMRS port corresponds to a data stream of PUSCH, and the precoding matrix corresponding to the DMRS port can also be called the precoding matrix corresponding to the data stream, that is, the terminal device transmits the data stream through the precoding matrix corresponding to the data stream. Therefore, the terminal device can use the precoding matrix corresponding to the DMRS port to send an uplink PTRS.

[0206] Optionally, the terminal device sends data in the data stream corresponding to the uplink PTRS and the DMRS port to the network device.

[0207] 401b. When the first condition is met, the network device uses an uplink PTRS port, and the network device determines a DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to the first corresponding relationship.

[0208] Step 401b is similar to the aforementioned step 401. For details, please refer to the relevant introduction of the aforementioned step 401, which will not be repeated here.

[0209] It should be noted that there is no fixed execution order between step 401b and step 401a. Step 401b may be executed first, and then step 401a; or, step 401a may be executed first, and then step 401b; or, step 401b and step 401a may be executed simultaneously according to the circumstances, which is not limited in this application.

[0210] 401c. The network device receives and processes the uplink PTRS according to the precoding matrix corresponding to the DMRS port.

[0211] Specifically, the network device measures the DMRS port associated with the uplink PTRS to obtain the channel information of the channel experienced by the uplink PTRS. The network device performs equalization processing based on the channel information to obtain the uplink PTRS. The network device can determine the phase noise experienced by the data signal based on the uplink PTRS, and then remove the influence of the phase noise from the data signal.

[0212] 402. When the second condition is met, the terminal device uses the uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS port 1, and the terminal device determines the DMRS ports corresponding to the uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS port 1 respectively according to the second corresponding relationship.

[0213] Among them, the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2. That is to say, the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2, which is a prerequisite. Specifically, the network device can configure the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH and the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS for the terminal device through configuration information. For details, please refer to the relevant introduction in step 400a below, which will not be repeated here.

[0214] Optionally, the second condition includes a combination of one or more of the following:

[0215] The SRS resource set indication field in the DCI does not exist. The DCI is used by the network device to schedule the terminal device to perform PUSCH;

[0216] The value of the SRS resource set indication field in the DCI is 00 or 01;

[0217] The DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission does not use a fully coherent codebook;

[0218] DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission uses a partially coherent codebook or a non-coherent codebook;

[0219] The PUSCH transmission scheduled by DCI adopts the non-codebook transmission mode;

[0220] The network device does not configure the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device;

[0221] The terminal device does not support transmission using a fully coherent codebook; or,

[0222] The codebook set configured by the network device for the terminal device does not include a fully coherent codebook.

[0223] It should be noted that the combination of the above multiple items can be a combination of logical OR operation, logical AND operation, or mixed operation. The mixed operation can be a combination of logical, operation, and / or, and logical AND operation.

[0224] Some possible implementations of the second condition are shown below.

[0225] Implementation method 1: The second condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI does not use a fully coherent codebook.

[0226] Implementation method 2: The second condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field does not exist, and the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI does not use a fully coherent codebook.

[0227] Implementation method 3: The second condition includes: the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI does not use a fully coherent codebook.

[0228] Implementation method 4, the second condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission does not use a fully coherent codebook or the network device does not configure the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device.

[0229] Implementation method 5, the second condition includes: the SRS resource set indication field does not exist, and the PUSCH scheduled by the DCI does not use a fully coherent codebook or the network device does not configure the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device.

[0230] Implementation method 6, the second condition includes: the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI does not use a fully coherent codebook or the network device does not configure the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device.

[0231] The second corresponding relationship includes the corresponding relationship between the uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS port 1 and the DMRS port.

[0232] Optionally, the second correspondence includes: a correspondence between the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field and the DMRS port, the two values ​​of the first bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field correspond to the two DMRS ports in the first group of DMRS ports of PUSCH, and the two values ​​of the second bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field correspond to the two DMRS ports in the second group of DMRS ports of PUSCH; the first group of DMRS ports shares PTRS port 0, and the second group of DMRS ports shares PTRS port 1.

[0233] In this implementation, the at most four DMRS ports of the PUSCH are divided into two groups of DMRS ports, namely, the first group of DMRS ports and the second group of DMRS ports. The first bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field may also be referred to as the high bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field. The second bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field may also be referred to as the low bit of the PTRS-DMRS association field.

[0234] It can be understood that the second correspondence is essentially the correspondence between the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field described in the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 and the DMRS port. Optionally, the PTRS-DMRS association field is a field in the DCI. The terminal device determines the DMRS ports corresponding to PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1 respectively according to the second correspondence, including: the terminal device determines the DMRS ports corresponding to PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1 respectively according to the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and the second correspondence. In other words, the terminal device determines the DMRS port corresponding to the one PTRS port according to the value of the PTRS-DMRS association field in the DCI and the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-26.

[0235] For example, the first bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is used to indicate the DMRS port corresponding to PTRS port 0, and the second bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is used to indicate the DMRS port corresponding to PTRS port 1. For example, the value of the first bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is 0, and the value of the second bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is 1. It can be seen from the above Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 that PTRS port 0 corresponds to 1 in the first group of DMRS ports. st DMRS port, PTRS port 1 corresponds to 2 in the second group of DMRS ports nd DMRS port.

[0236] Optionally, the length of the PTRS-DMRS association field may be 1 bit, 2 bits, or 3 bits, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0237] The second condition in the above step 402 corresponds to scenario 2.2 in the above Table 3. It can be seen that the present embodiment stipulates that: when the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2, the SRS resource set indication field does not exist or the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00 or 01, and the DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission adopts a non-fully coherent codebook, or when the maximum number of transmission streams of the PUSCH of the terminal device does not exceed 4, the maximum number of ports of the uplink PTRS of the terminal device is 2, and the network device configures the SDM transmission mode for the terminal device, the terminal device determines the DMRS ports corresponding to PTRS port 0 and PTRS port 1 respectively according to Table 7.3.1.1.2-26. It can be seen that the technical solution provided by the present embodiment can achieve more reasonable scene division, so that the terminal device can correctly determine the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port in each single TRP transmission scene. The terminal device can correctly perform PTRS transmission and ensure the transmission performance of PUSCH.

[0238] Optional, Figure 4 The illustrated embodiment further includes steps 402a to 402c. Steps 402a to 402c may be performed after step 402.

[0239] 402a. The terminal device sends the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 to the network device according to the precoding matrix of the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and uplink PTRS port 1 respectively. Correspondingly, the network device receives the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 from the terminal device.

[0240] Specifically, the terminal device sends the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 according to the precoding matrix of the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0. The terminal device sends the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 according to the precoding matrix of the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1.

[0241] Optionally, the terminal device sends data in a data stream corresponding to an uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and a DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port 0 to the network device. The terminal device sends data in a data stream corresponding to an uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 and a DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS port 1 to the network device.

[0242] 402b. When the second condition is met, the network device uses uplink PTRS port 0 and uplink PTRS port 1, and the network device determines the precoding matrix of the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and uplink PTRS port 1 respectively according to the second corresponding relationship to generate the first uplink PTRS and the second uplink PTRS.

[0243] Step 402b is similar to the aforementioned step 402. For details, please refer to the relevant introduction of the aforementioned step 402, which will not be repeated here.

[0244] It should be noted that there is no fixed execution order between step 402b and step 402a. Step 402b may be executed first, and then step 402a; or, step 402a may be executed first, and then step 402b; or, step 402b and step 402a may be executed simultaneously according to the circumstances, which is not limited in this application.

[0246] Specifically, the network device measures the DMRS port associated with the uplink PTRS port 0, obtains the channel information of the channel experienced by the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port 0, and performs equalization processing according to the channel information to obtain the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port 0. The network device measures the DMRS port associated with the uplink PTRS port 1, obtains the channel information of the channel experienced by the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port 1, and performs equalization processing according to the channel information to obtain the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port 1. The network device can determine the phase noise experienced by the two data streams of the PUSCH according to the PTRS corresponding to the PTRS port 0 and the PTRS port 1, and then remove the influence of the phase noise from the above two data streams.

[0247] For example, after the network device parses and obtains the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 and the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1, the network device can measure the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 to obtain a signal phase offset value of 0 caused by phase noise, and the network device measures the uplink PTRS corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 to obtain a signal phase offset value of 1 caused by phase noise. Then, the network device compensates the data in the data stream corresponding to the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 0 by the signal phase offset value 0. The network device compensates the data in the data stream corresponding to the DMRS port corresponding to uplink PTRS port 1 by the signal phase offset value 1.

The following introduces several possible implementations of the terminal device using one PTRS port. This application is still applicable to other implementations, and this application does not limit them specifically.

[0268] In a possible implementation, the terminal device adopts a PTRS port including: the terminal device adopts PTRS port 0. That is, the terminal device adopts PTRS port 0 by default.

For example, if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 0; if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 01, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 1. For another example, if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 00, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 1; if the value of the SRS resource set indication field is 01, the terminal device adopts uplink PTRS port 0.

For example, the value of the first bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is 0, and the value of the second bit in the PTRS-DMRS association field is 1. It can be seen from Table 7.3.1.1.2-26 that PTRS port 0 corresponds to 1 in the first group of DMRS ports. st DMRS port, PTRS port 1 corresponds to 2 in the second group of DMRS ports nd DMRS port.
