[0046] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0047] To facilitate understanding, some nouns involved in this application are first introduced.

[0048] NTN refers to a wireless communication network that does not rely on ground facilities but is built using satellites, high-altitude airships or other celestial objects. The main functions of NTN include: Providing wide-area coverage: NTN can cover areas that cannot be covered by the ground, such as oceans, polar regions, deserts, mountains, forests and other remote areas, to achieve global communication coverage. Rapid deployment: NTN does not require a large number of ground facilities and can be quickly deployed in disaster areas or emergency situations to provide emergency communication services. Expanding network capacity: NTN can serve as a supplement to ground wireless networks, improving overall network capacity and performance by sharing the communication load of ground networks. Seamless roaming: NTN's global coverage capability enables users to roam seamlessly around the world without having to change SIM cards in different countries or regions. Supporting special applications: Because NTN has global coverage capabilities and high-intensity communication signals, it can be used to support special applications, such as communication needs in aviation, oceans and other fields.

[0049] SN is a network system that uses artificial satellites as repeaters or onboard base stations to transmit communication signals. It achieves global communication coverage through communication satellites operating in low, medium and high orbits, and can provide wide-area coverage, wireless transmission and global communication services. Satellite networks can be used to provide telephone, Internet, television broadcasting and other data communication services. This network can provide communication services in areas where ground infrastructure is imperfect or cannot be covered, such as remote areas, oceans, aircraft and spacecraft. Satellite networks can be a combination of ground-to-satellite communication (uplink) and satellite-to-ground communication (downlink), or communication between satellites.

[0050] TA (Timing Advance) refers to the need to adjust the sending time of the mobile terminal in order to ensure the clock synchronization between the mobile terminal and the base station in the mobile communication system. Since the distance between the mobile terminal and the base station is different, the delay of signal transmission is also different, so the time when the mobile terminal sends the signal needs to be adjusted through the TA mechanism to ensure that the signal can reach the base station at the correct time. The adjustment of TA is usually a small time adjustment in symbol units to correct the transmission timing of the signal, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of communication.

[0051] FA (Frequency Adjust) refers to the need to adjust the transmission frequency of the mobile terminal in order to deal with problems such as frequency offset and multipath propagation in mobile communication systems. Signal transmission between the mobile terminal and the base station is affected by many factors, which may cause the frequency of the signal to shift, and the frequency offset will affect the signal reception quality and communication performance. Therefore, the FA mechanism can be used to make slight adjustments to the transmission frequency of the mobile terminal to correct the frequency offset and improve the signal reception quality and communication performance.

[0052] See also Figure 1A The schematic diagram of the application scenario of the terminal access method shown in the figure is for the random access scenario of the satellite network in the 5G+ network and the 6G network. Due to the long distance between the satellite 10 and the UE 20, the loss is large, the delay is large, and it is susceptible to factors such as the atmosphere, multipath and obstruction, which makes it difficult to adjust the time and frequency, and the signal quality is reduced, resulting in a low success rate of random access, which seriously affects the user experience of the satellite network. Of course, the network involved in this application is not limited to the 5G+ network and the 6G network, and can also be expanded to other networks as needed.

[0053] In view of this, the present application provides a method for correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameters including TA and / or FA based on the distance impact data of the UE to be accessed, so that the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters fully consider the influence of the distance impact data of the UE to be accessed and other factors associated with the distance impact data on the time-frequency adjustment parameters, thereby improving the accuracy of the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters. Accordingly, the UE to be accessed adjusts the uplink transmission parameters based on the more accurate corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters and performs random access, thereby improving the success rate of random access to the satellite network.

[0054] In an alternative embodiment, if Figure 1B As shown, a terminal access method is provided, which is applied to a satellite base station, including:

[0055] S110, receiving a random access request from a UE to be accessed; wherein the random access request includes a preamble sequence and distance impact data of the UE to be accessed.

[0056] Among them, the random access request is a message sent by the UE to be accessed when attempting to establish an uplink connection with the satellite base station, so as to ensure that the UE to be accessed can effectively access the network and obtain necessary resource allocation before data transmission.

[0057] The random access request may include a preamble sequence which is sent through a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) to identify an access attempt of a UE to be accessed and to help a satellite base station detect whether the access request comes from the UE to be accessed.

[0058] The distance impact data is used to characterize data that directly or indirectly affects the signal transmission distance, and may include at least one of the three-dimensional location information of the UE to be accessed and the three-dimensional map data at the location of the UE to be accessed. The three-dimensional location information is used to characterize the spatial location information of the UE to be accessed in three-dimensional space, which directly affects the signal transmission distance; the three-dimensional map data carries information such as building information and terrain information of the current environment of the UE to be accessed, which affects the signal transmission distance through multipath and obstruction.

[0059] Exemplarily, when the UE to be accessed has an access demand, a random access request is sent to the satellite base station; correspondingly, the satellite base station receives the random access request for subsequent processing.

[0060] S120, determining a time-frequency adjustment parameter according to the preamble sequence; the time-frequency adjustment parameter includes TA and / or FA.

[0061] Among them, the time-frequency adjustment parameters may be relevant parameters that affect the access of the UE to be accessed to the satellite base station, and may include at least one of TA and FA.

[0062] Exemplarily, the leading sequence may be processed by at least one of the conventional processing methods to obtain TA and / or FA.

[0063] Optionally, the TA at the current moment may be obtained by performing correlation peak detection on the leading sequence; or optionally, the FA at the current moment may be obtained by performing spectrum analysis on the leading sequence.

[0064] S130: Modify the time-frequency adjustment parameters according to the distance impact data.

[0065] In an optional embodiment, a first correspondence between different reference distance influence data and reference correction data of corresponding time-frequency adjustment parameters can be pre-constructed; based on the first correspondence, the reference correction data of the time-frequency adjustment parameters corresponding to the distance influence data are searched, and the corresponding time-frequency adjustment parameters are corrected according to the search results.

[0066] In another optional embodiment, a second correspondence between different reference distance influence data and the correction results of the corresponding time-frequency adjustment parameters may be pre-constructed; based on the second correspondence, the correction results of the time-frequency adjustment parameters corresponding to the distance influence data are directly searched.

[0067] In another optional embodiment, a first correction function with the distance influence data as an independent variable and the correction data of the time-frequency adjustment parameter as a dependent variable can also be pre-constructed; the distance influence data is input as input data into the first correction function to obtain the correction data corresponding to the time-frequency adjustment parameter; and the corresponding time-frequency adjustment parameter is corrected according to the correction data corresponding to the time-frequency adjustment parameter. It is worth noting that the present application does not impose any restrictions on the determination method and presentation form of the first correction function.

[0068] In another optional embodiment, a second correction function may be pre-constructed with the distance influence data as an independent variable and the correction result of the time-frequency adjustment parameter as a dependent variable; the distance influence data is input as input data into the second correction function to obtain the correction result corresponding to the time-frequency adjustment parameter. It is worth noting that the present application does not impose any limitation on the determination method and presentation form of the second correction function.

[0069] S140: Send the modified time-frequency adjustment parameter to the UE to be accessed, so that the UE to be accessed performs random access according to the uplink transmission parameter adjusted based on the modified time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0070] Exemplarily, the satellite base station sends the modified time-frequency adjustment parameter to the UE to be accessed; the UE to be accessed adjusts the uplink transmission parameter based on the modified time-frequency adjustment parameter, and performs random access according to the adjusted uplink transmission parameter. The uplink transmission parameter may include uplink transmission time and / or uplink transmission frequency.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, in order to facilitate the UE to be accessed to understand the random access situation of the satellite network, the satellite base station may also send access feedback information to the UE to be accessed after the UE to be accessed performs random access, so that the UE to be accessed can normally carry out communication activities when the access feedback information indicates that the access is successful. Or optionally, the UE to be accessed may be sent access reference information so that the UE to be accessed can re-execute the sending operation of the random access request when the access feedback information indicates that the access fails, thereby re-correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameters.

[0072] In the above optional embodiment, the UE to be accessed sends a random access request to the satellite base station. The satellite base station determines the time-frequency adjustment parameters including TA and / or FA according to the leading sequence in the random access request, and corrects the time-frequency adjustment parameters according to the distance impact data of the UE to be accessed in the random access request. The corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters fully consider the impact of the distance impact data, thereby improving the accuracy of the correction result. Accordingly, the UE to be accessed adjusts the uplink transmission parameters based on the more accurate corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters, and performs random access based on the adjusted uplink transmission parameters, which can eliminate changes in signal attenuation and propagation delay caused by distance-related factors, thereby reducing the impact of factors such as atmosphere, multipath and occlusion, improving signal fading and interference, thereby improving the satellite network random access success rate, thereby improving satellite network performance and user perception, and reducing satellite network construction and optimization costs.

[0073] Based on the technical solutions of the above embodiments, the present application further provides an optional embodiment. In this optional embodiment, the step of correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameters in S130 is refined.

[0074] See also Figure 2 The correction steps of the time-frequency adjustment parameters include:

[0075] S210, determining an access correction factor according to the distance impact data; the access correction factor includes at least one of a location correction factor, a TA correction factor and a FA correction factor.

[0076] It is worth noting that the access correction factor is usually a value greater than -1 and less than 1.

[0077] Among them, the position correction factor is a correction factor related to the distance, which is used to weaken or eliminate the effects of signal attenuation, propagation delay change, etc. caused by the distance between the UE to be accessed and the satellite base station.

[0078] In an optional embodiment, the distance influence data may include three-dimensional position information; accordingly, the position correction factor may be determined in the following manner: according to a preset correspondence table, searching for the position correction factor corresponding to the three-dimensional position information; wherein the preset correspondence table includes the correspondence between different reference distance influence data and reference position correction factors.

[0079] Among them, the preset correspondence table can be set or adjusted by the technician according to needs or experience, or determined through a large number of experiments, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. It can be understood that by searching the data, the position correction factor corresponding to the three-dimensional position information of the UE to be connected is determined, which improves the convenience of the position correction factor determination process. In addition, the preset correspondence table is used as a carrier of the correspondence between different reference distances affecting the data and the reference position correction factor, which is convenient for storage and maintenance.

[0080] Among them, the TA correction factor is a correction factor related to time adjustment, which is used to weaken or eliminate the effects of signal attenuation, propagation delay changes, etc. caused by environmental data related to transmission time.

[0081] In another optional embodiment, the distance impact data may include three-dimensional position information; accordingly, the TA correction factor may be determined in the following manner: based on the three-dimensional position information, determining the first distance between the UE to be accessed and the satellite base station, and the signal propagation delay of the UE to be accessed; based on the signal propagation delay, the signal transmission speed and the first distance, determining the TA correction factor of the UE to be accessed.

[0082] Optionally, the difference between the three-dimensional position information of the UE to be accessed and the current position of the satellite base station can be used as the first distance between the UE to be accessed and the satellite base station to characterize the spatial distance. Alternatively, based on a distance fading model, the first distance between the UE to be accessed and the satellite base station can be determined according to the difference between the three-dimensional position information of the UE to be accessed and the current position of the satellite base station to characterize the path loss or attenuation. The distance fading model can include at least one of a free space propagation model and a hyperbolic model, and the present application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0083] For example, the difference between the three-dimensional location information of the UE to be connected and the current location of the satellite base station can be determined, and the ratio between the difference and the signal transmission speed can be used as a signal propagation test. The signal transmission speed is usually the speed of light, that is, 3×10 8 m / s.

[0084] Exemplarily, the signal propagation delay, the signal transmission speed and the first distance can be used as input data and input into the TA correction factor determination function to obtain the TA correction factor of the UE to be connected. The TA correction factor determination function can be set or adjusted by a technician as needed, or repeatedly determined through a large number of experiments. This application does not impose any restrictions on the construction method and presentation form of the TA correction factor determination function.

[0085] Optionally, the TA correction factor determination function can perform random access simulation based on the reference signal propagation delay, reference signal transmission speed and first reference distance collected in a large number of experiments to obtain a reference TA correction factor; with a large number of reference signal propagation delays, reference signal transmission speeds and first reference distances as independent variables and the reference TA correction factor as the dependent variable, nonlinear fitting is performed to obtain the TA correction factor determination function for use.

[0086] Due to the satellite communication systems under different satellite types, the corresponding TA correction factor determination results are different. In order to eliminate the influence of satellite type on the TA correction factor determination result, TA correction factor determination functions can be constructed for different satellite types. Accordingly, when determining the TA correction factor, the TA correction factor determination function that matches the satellite type of the satellite base station can be first determined, and then the signal propagation delay, signal transmission speed and the first distance are used as input data and input into the selected TA correction factor determination function to obtain the TA correction factor of the UE to be accessed.

[0087] In an optional implementation, different TA correction factor determination functions correspond to different distance fading models. It is worth noting that different propagation models and characteristics will lead to changes in signal transmission speed, attenuation effect, etc. Taking these factors into full consideration in the construction or selection process of the TA correction factor determination function will help improve the accuracy of the final determined TA correction factor.

[0088] Specifically, the TA correction factor can be determined using the following formula:

[0089] parameter_factor_TA = f(distance_1, propagation_delay, signal_speed);

[0090] Among them, parameter_factor_TA is the TA correction factor; f( ) is the TA correction factor determination function; distance_1 is the first distance; propagation_delay is the signal propagation delay; signal_speed is the signal transmission speed.

[0091] Among them, the FA correction factor is a correction factor related to frequency adjustment, which is used to weaken or eliminate the effects of signal attenuation, propagation delay changes, etc. caused by environmental data related to the transmission frequency.

[0092] In another optional embodiment, the distance impact data may include three-dimensional position information and three-dimensional map data at the location of the UE to be accessed; accordingly, the FA correction factor can be determined in the following manner: based on the three-dimensional map data and the three-dimensional position information, determine the second distance between the UE to be accessed and the surrounding environment targets of the UE to be accessed, as well as the target feature data corresponding to the surrounding environment targets; based on the target feature data and the second distance, determine the FA correction factor of the UE to be accessed.

[0093] The three-dimensional map data carries information such as buildings and terrain around the location of the UE to be accessed. Optionally, the three-dimensional map data may be environmental perception data collected by an environmental sensor set around the UE to be accessed; or optionally, the three-dimensional map data may be a pre-drawn three-dimensional map of the location of the UE to be accessed.

[0094] Exemplarily, the surrounding environment targets around the location of the UE to be connected can be determined based on the three-dimensional map data and the three-dimensional location information, which may include at least one of a building target and a terrain target. For example, based on a traditional target detection network, the environmental targets in the three-dimensional map data can be identified, and the environmental targets within a preset range of the location of the three-dimensional location information can be used as the surrounding environment targets of the UE to be connected.

[0095] Exemplarily, the second distance is determined according to the difference between the three-dimensional position information and the surrounding environment targets, and is used to characterize the spatial distance between the UE to be accessed and the surrounding environment targets.

[0096] Optionally, for each surrounding environment target, the difference between the three-dimensional position information and the surrounding environment target can be determined; and the statistical results of the differences corresponding to each surrounding environment target (such as the average value, maximum value, minimum value or median value, etc.) are used as the second distance.

[0097] In an optional implementation, based on a traditional feature extraction network, feature extraction is performed on surrounding environment targets in three-dimensional map data to obtain target feature data. Alternatively, the feature extraction results of surrounding environment targets output by the feature extraction subnetwork in the target detection network are directly used as target feature data. Among them, the target feature data may include at least one of the target height, target category and target profile of the surrounding environment targets, which is used to characterize the environmental characteristics of the environment in which the UE to be connected is currently located. It is worth noting that the target type can be further subdivided into subcategories under the building category and subcategories under the terrain category, etc.

[0098] In another optional implementation, the reflection and attenuation effects caused by each surrounding environment target can be measured based on the path loss model and the building reflection model, and the determined impact value can be used as the target feature data to characterize the impact of the surrounding environment targets on the signal transmission of the UE to be accessed.

[0099] Exemplarily, the target feature data and the second distance can be used as input data and input into the FA correction factor determination function to obtain the TA correction factor of the UE to be connected. The FA correction factor determination function can be set or adjusted by a technician as needed, or repeatedly determined through a large number of experiments. This application does not impose any restrictions on the construction method and presentation form of the FA correction factor determination function.

[0100] Optionally, the FA correction factor determination function can perform random access simulation based on reference target characteristic data and the second reference distance collected in a large number of experiments to obtain a reference FA correction factor; use a large number of reference target characteristic data and the second reference distance as independent variables and the reference FA correction factor as the dependent variable to perform nonlinear fitting to obtain the FA correction factor determination function for use.

[0101] Due to the satellite communication systems under different satellite types, the corresponding FA correction factor determination results are different. In order to eliminate the influence of satellite type on the FA correction factor determination result, FA correction factor determination functions can be constructed for different satellite types. Accordingly, when determining the FA correction factor, the FA correction factor determination function matching the satellite type of the satellite base station can be first determined, and then the target feature data and the second distance are used as input data and input into the selected TA correction factor determination function to obtain the TA correction factor of the UE to be connected.

[0102] In an optional implementation, the path loss models and building reflection models corresponding to different FA correction factor determination functions may be at least partially different. It is worth noting that different propagation models and characteristics may lead to different degrees of influence of signal reflection and attenuation. Taking the above factors into full consideration in the construction or selection process of the FA correction factor determination function will help improve the accuracy of the FA correction factor finally determined.

[0103] Specifically, the FA correction factor can be determined using the following formula:

[0104] parameter_factor_FA = g(distance_2, environment);

[0105] Among them, parameter_factor_FA is the FA correction factor; g( ) is the TA correction factor determination function; distance_2 is the second distance; environment is the target feature data.

[0106] It is worth noting that in the process of determining the TA correction factor and the FA correction factor, the dimensions taken into consideration include distance, propagation delay, and environmental characteristics-related data, which more comprehensively reflects the influencing factors in the actual scenario, thereby improving the accuracy of the correction factor determination results, and in turn helping to improve the accuracy of the subsequent time-frequency adjustment parameter correction results.

[0107] S220: Correct the time-frequency adjustment parameter according to the access correction factor.

[0108] Exemplarily, at least one correction factor may be used to correct at least one time-frequency adjustment parameter to obtain a corrected time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0109] In an optional implementation, the TA in the time-frequency adjustment parameter may be corrected according to at least one of the position correction factor, the TA correction factor, and the FA correction factor to obtain a corrected TA.

[0110] In another optional implementation, the FA in the time-frequency adjustment parameter may be corrected according to at least one of a position correction factor, a TA correction factor, and a FA correction factor to obtain a corrected FA.

[0111] In the above optional implementation, by determining the access correction factor in at least one dimension according to the distance impact data, and correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameter based on the access correction factor in at least one dimension, the richness and diversity of the correction method are improved.

[0112] On the basis of the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, the present application further provides an optional embodiment. In this optional embodiment, the step of correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameters according to the access correction factor in S220 is refined.

[0113] See also Figure 3 The steps for correcting the time-frequency adjustment parameters shown include:

[0114] S310: Determine a difference between an expected access parameter and a time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0115] The expected access parameter may be understood as a time-frequency adjustment parameter that is preset based on the communication requirements of a specific communication scenario, that is, a target value of the time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0116] Exemplarily, when the time-frequency adjustment parameter includes TA, the expected access parameter may include expected TA; when the time-frequency adjustment parameter includes FA, the expected access parameter may include expected FA.

[0117] The difference between the expected access parameter and the time-frequency adjustment parameter is used to measure the gap between the time-frequency adjustment parameter at the current moment and the expected access parameter. It is worth noting that the difference here is a vector value, not a scalar value. The positive or negative value of the vector value directly affects the correction direction of the subsequent time-frequency adjustment parameter correction.

[0118] S320, determining adjustment parameter correction data according to the product of the difference and the access correction factor.

[0119] The adjustment parameter correction data is used to represent the numerical quantification result of the adjustment of the time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0120] In an optional implementation, if the number of access correction factors is 1, the product of the above difference and the access correction factor can be directly used as the adjustment parameter correction data.

[0121] In another optional implementation, if the number of access correction factors is at least two, the cascade product of the above difference and each access correction factor may be used as adjustment parameter correction data.

[0122] It is worth noting that, since the above difference is a vector value, the adjustment parameter correction data here is also a vector value, that is, it includes the parameter correction amplitude and the parameter correction direction.

[0123] S330, determining a corrected time-frequency adjustment parameter according to the sum of the time-frequency adjustment parameter and the adjustment parameter correction data.

[0124] Optionally, the sum of the time-frequency adjustment parameter and the adjustment parameter correction data may be directly used as the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameter.

[0125] Alternatively, the product between the parameter correction factor and the preset adjustment ratio can also be determined, and the sum of the product result and the time-frequency adjustment parameter is used as the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameter. Among them, the preset adjustment ratio can be set or adjusted by the technician according to needs or experience, or determined through a large number of experiments. It is worth noting that the preset adjustment ratios corresponding to different time-frequency adjustment parameters are the same or different, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0126] In an optional implementation, the following formula may be used to correct TA:

[0127] TA_adjusted = TA_current + K1 * (TA_desired - TA_current) * location_factor * parameter_factor_TA * parameter_factor_FA;

[0128] Among them, TA_adjusted is the corrected TA; TA_desired is the desired TA; TA_current is the TA before correction; location_factor is the location correction factor; parameter_factor_TA is the TA correction factor; parameter_factor_FA is the FA correction factor; K1 is the first preset adjustment ratio.

[0129] In another optional implementation, the following formula may be used to correct FA:

[0130] FA_adjusted = FA_current + K2 * (FA_desired - FA_current) * location_factor * parameter_factor_FA * parameter_factor_TA;

[0131] Among them, FA_adjusted is the corrected FA; FA_desired is the desired FA; FA_current is the FA before correction; location_factor is the location correction factor; parameter_factor_FA is the FA correction factor; parameter_factor_TA is the TA correction factor; K2 is the second preset adjustment ratio.

[0132] The above optional embodiment introduces the difference between the expected access parameter and the time-frequency adjustment parameter as the basis for determining the adjustment parameter correction data, and determines the adjustment parameter correction data according to the product of the difference and the access correction factor, and determines the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameter according to the sum of the time-frequency adjustment parameter and the adjustment parameter correction data. The above determination process can be achieved through simple calculations, the computing power cost invested is low, and the determination efficiency is high, which helps to improve the correction efficiency of the time-frequency adjustment parameter correction, without the need to expand the computing power of the existing satellite base station, and is more universal.

[0133] The technical solutions of the above embodiments take the satellite base station as the execution subject and describe the terminal access method in detail. The following will take the UE to be accessed as the execution subject and describe the terminal access method in detail.

[0134] See also Figure 4 The terminal access method shown is applied to a UE to be accessed, and includes:

[0135] S410: Send a random access request to a satellite base station, so that the satellite base station modifies a time-frequency adjustment parameter determined based on a preamble sequence in the random access request according to distance impact data of the UE to be accessed in the random access request.

[0136] The time-frequency adjustment parameters include TA and / or FA.

[0137] Among them, the random access request is a message sent by the UE to be accessed when attempting to establish an uplink connection with the satellite base station, so as to ensure that the UE to be accessed can effectively access the network and obtain necessary resource allocation before data transmission.

[0138] The random access request may include a preamble sequence which is sent through a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) to identify an access attempt of a UE to be accessed and to help a satellite base station detect whether the access request comes from the UE to be accessed.

[0139] The distance impact data is used to characterize data that directly or indirectly affects the signal transmission distance, and may include at least one of the three-dimensional location information of the UE to be accessed and the three-dimensional map data at the location of the UE to be accessed. The three-dimensional location information is used to characterize the spatial location information of the UE to be accessed in three-dimensional space, which directly affects the signal transmission distance; the three-dimensional map data carries information such as building information and terrain information of the current environment of the UE to be accessed, which affects the signal transmission distance through multipath and obstruction.

[0140] Exemplarily, when the UE to be accessed has an access demand, a random access request is sent to the satellite base station; accordingly, the satellite base station receives the random access request, and determines the time-frequency adjustment parameters based on the leading sequence in the random access request, and corrects the time-frequency adjustment parameters according to the distance impact data of the UE to be accessed in the random access request. It is worth noting that the relevant steps for the satellite base station to determine and correct the time-frequency adjustment parameters can be referred to the relevant descriptions of the aforementioned embodiments, and no limitation is made here.

[0141] S420, receiving the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters sent by the satellite base station.

[0142] S430, adjusting the uplink transmission parameters according to the corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters, and performing random access based on the adjusted uplink transmission parameters.

[0143] After the satellite base station corrects the time and frequency adjustment parameters, it will send the corrected time and frequency adjustment parameters to the UE to be accessed through the downlink channel; the UE to be accessed receives the corrected time and frequency adjustment parameters and adjusts the uplink transmission parameters based on the corrected time and frequency adjustment parameters; the UE to be accessed sends uplink information to the satellite base station according to the adjusted uplink transmission parameters to complete the subsequent operations of random access.

[0144] Optionally, the uplink transmission parameter may include an uplink transmission time; accordingly, the uplink transmission time may be adjusted according to the modified TA. Alternatively, the uplink transmission parameter may include an uplink transmission frequency; accordingly, the uplink transmission frequency may be adjusted according to the modified FA.

[0145] In an optional embodiment, in order to facilitate the UE to be accessed to understand the random access status of the satellite network, the satellite base station may also send access feedback information to the UE to be accessed after the UE to be accessed performs random access; accordingly, the UE to be accessed receives the access feedback information sent by the satellite base station; when the access feedback information indicates that the access is successful, the communication activity is carried out normally. Alternatively, when the access feedback information indicates that the access fails, the random access request sending operation is re-executed, so as to re-correct the time-frequency adjustment parameters.

[0146] It is understandable that in the event of access failure, the UE re-executes the random access request sending operation and corrects the TA and FA again until the access is successful, which can achieve more accurate TA and FA corrections, improve the accuracy of the correction results, and thus improve system performance and stability.

[0147] In the above optional embodiment, the UE to be accessed sends a random access request to the satellite base station. The satellite base station determines the time-frequency adjustment parameters including TA and / or FA according to the leading sequence in the random access request, and corrects the time-frequency adjustment parameters according to the distance impact data of the UE to be accessed in the random access request. The corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters fully consider the impact of the distance impact data, thereby improving the accuracy of the correction result. Accordingly, the UE to be accessed adjusts the uplink transmission parameters based on the more accurate corrected time-frequency adjustment parameters, and performs random access based on the adjusted uplink transmission parameters, which can eliminate changes in signal attenuation and propagation delay caused by distance-related factors, thereby reducing the impact of factors such as atmosphere, multipath and occlusion, improving signal fading and interference, thereby improving the satellite network random access success rate, thereby improving satellite network performance and user perception, and reducing satellite network construction and optimization costs.

[0148] Based on the technical solutions of the above embodiments, the present application also provides an optional embodiment, in which the terminal access method is described in detail from the perspective of multi-party interaction.

[0149] See also Figure 5 The terminal access method shown includes:

[0150] S501, the UE sends a random access request to the satellite base station through the PRACH channel; wherein the random access request includes the UE's three-dimensional location information, the three-dimensional map data of the current environment, and a preamble sequence;

[0151] S502, the satellite base station performs correlation peak detection on the preamble sequence to obtain a current TA; and performs spectrum analysis and frequency feature extraction on the preamble sequence to obtain a current FA;

[0152] S503, the satellite base station determines a position correction factor according to the three-dimensional position information; and determines a TA correction factor and a FA correction factor according to the three-dimensional position information and the three-dimensional map data;

[0153] S504, the satellite base station corrects the current TA according to the TA correction formula; and corrects the current FA according to the FA correction formula;

[0154] S505, the satellite base station sends the corrected TA and corrected FA to the UE via a downlink channel;

[0155] S506, the UE adjusts the uplink transmission time according to the corrected TA; and adjusts the uplink transmission frequency according to the corrected FA;

[0156] S507, the UE sends uplink information to the satellite base station at the adjusted uplink sending time and uplink sending frequency, and completes the random access process;

[0157] S508, the satellite base station determines whether the UE has successfully accessed; if so, execute S509; otherwise, execute S510;

[0158] S509, the satellite base station sends an access success message to the UE;

[0159] S510, the satellite base station sends an access failure message to the UE; and the process returns to S501.

[0160] It is worth noting that the above terminal access process is compatible with different networks and application scenarios, and can adapt to NTN transparent transmission mode and NTN regeneration mode, making it more universal, scalable and stable. In addition, by adjusting TA and FA, signal attenuation and propagation delay are eliminated, signal quality is improved, and the success rate of satellite network access is increased.
