[0043] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0044] The terms "first", "second", "third", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, for example.
[0045] In addition, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements explicitly listed, but may include other steps or elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.
[0046] Definitions of terms used in the embodiments of this application:
[0047] Baseband chip refers to the chip used to synthesize the baseband signal to be transmitted or decode the received baseband signal. Specifically, when transmitting, it encodes the voice or other data signal into the baseband code used for transmission; when receiving, it decodes the received baseband code into voice or other data signals. It mainly completes the information processing function of the communication terminal.
[0048] Radio frequency chips, also known as radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs), are specialized semiconductor devices designed specifically to efficiently process radio frequency signals.
[0049] The RF front end is a core component in wireless communication equipment. Its main function is to convert radio electromagnetic wave signals and binary digital signals into each other. It is mainly composed of power amplifier (PA), low-frequency noise amplifier (LNA), filter, switch, duplexer (Duplexer and Diplexer) and tuner (Antenna Tuner). The characteristics and performance of these components directly affect the signal reception and transmission of electronic equipment.
[0050] An application processor, whose full name is Multimedia Application Processor (MAP for short), is a very large scale integrated circuit that extends audio and video functions and dedicated interfaces based on a low-power central processing unit (CPU). It is mainly responsible for processing information such as audio, video, and images.
[0051] A narrowband signal refers to a signal with a relatively narrow frequency band. The frequency bandwidth of a narrowband signal is relatively small compared to the center frequency, that is, WB / f0 < 1 / 10, where WB is the signal bandwidth and f0 is the center frequency. For example, if the center frequency is 1 GHz and the bandwidth is 10 MHz, then this signal can be regarded as a narrowband signal.
[0052] A broadband signal refers to a signal with a relatively wide frequency band. The frequency bandwidth of a broadband signal is relatively large compared to the center frequency, that is, B << f0, or B / f0 << 1. Generally speaking, the relative bandwidth of a narrowband signal B / f0 < 0.1, while the relative bandwidth of a broadband signal is relatively large, even reaching several orders of magnitude. Broadband signals have higher data transmission rates and wider frequency bandwidths, and can process multiple different signal types simultaneously. In broadband signals, various different communication protocols and modulation and demodulation technologies are widely used to achieve high-speed and efficient data transmission.
[0053] Single Side Band (SSB) communication, a communication method. In order to improve communication efficiency and save communication frequency bands, the carrier and the other side band can be removed during communication, and only one side band is sent. The advantages of single side band communication are: saving frequency bands, saving power, and improving confidentiality because the single side band transmitter does not send the carrier frequency.
[0054] In a multimodal communication system, the narrowband system and the broadband system use different frequency bands. The frequency resources defined by the narrowband system are relatively low, such as the frequencies defined by PDT / TETRA are generally in frequency bands below 1 GHz such as 350 MHz, 370 MHz, 800 MHz, etc. The frequency resources defined by the broadband system are around 1 GHz, C-Band, and sub 6G, etc. The power spectral density of the narrowband system is generally higher than that of the broadband system, and its coverage range, especially the uplink coverage, is generally larger than that of the broadband system.
[0055] Currently, in multimodal communication, terminal devices usually configure different baseband signal processing and radio frequency paths to send or receive narrowband signals or broadband signals. Exemplarily, Figure 1 The structural schematic of the terminal device provided by the embodiments of this application Figure 1 . Such as Figure 1As shown, the terminal device includes an antenna, a radio frequency front end, a radio frequency chip, a baseband chip and an application processor. Among them, the radio frequency chip includes a narrowband radio frequency processing module and a broadband radio frequency processing module, and the baseband chip includes a narrowband baseband processing module and a broadband baseband processing module. The connection relationship between the modules or devices of the terminal device is as follows: the application processor is connected to the baseband chip, and specifically, the application processor is respectively connected to the narrowband baseband processing module and the broadband baseband processing module in the baseband chip. The narrowband baseband processing module of the baseband chip is connected to the narrowband radio frequency processing module of the radio frequency chip, and the broadband baseband processing module of the baseband chip is connected to the broadband radio frequency processing module of the radio frequency chip. The radio frequency chip is connected to the radio frequency front end, and specifically, the radio frequency front end is respectively connected to the narrowband radio frequency processing module and the broadband radio frequency processing module in the radio frequency chip. The radio frequency front end is connected to the antenna.
[0056] In some embodiments, the application processor can transmit audio, video or image information to the baseband chip, and the baseband chip loads this information on the baseband signal. After being processed by the baseband chip, the RF chip, and the RF front end, the antenna completes the transmission of the uplink signal. Conversely, the antenna receives the downlink signal, and the downlink signal carries the downlink information. After being processed by the RF front end, the RF chip, and the baseband chip, the downlink information is transmitted to the application processor.
[0057] based on Figure 1 In the terminal device shown, the transmission path of the narrowband signal includes the narrowband baseband processing module of the baseband chip and the narrowband RF processing module of the RF chip, and the transmission path of the broadband signal includes the broadband baseband processing module of the baseband chip and the broadband RF processing module of the RF chip. Among them, the transmission path of the narrowband signal is independent of the transmission path of the broadband signal, and the uplink transmission of the narrowband signal cannot share the RF path of the broadband signal, that is, it cannot share the broadband RF processing module.
[0058] At present, when narrowband resources are limited or broadband signal interference is large, even if broadband frequency resources are idle or uplink single-sideband frequency resources are available, the system does not support narrowband scheduling of wide-narrow wireless resources, that is, the network side does not support scheduling of narrowband signals on the uplink transmission of broadband frequencies through narrowband physical downlink control channels, or scheduling of broadband signals on the uplink transmission of broadband frequencies through narrowband physical downlink control channels.
[0059] In view of this, the embodiment of the present application shows a multi-mode chip that integrates broadband and narrowband. The multi-mode chip includes a baseband chip and a radio frequency chip. A path selection module is set between the baseband chip and the radio frequency chip to decouple the baseband processing and the radio frequency processing. The multi-mode chip can be applied to the terminal side, and supports the terminal side to configure the narrowband baseband processing module in the baseband chip to connect with the broadband radio frequency processing module in the radio frequency chip through the path selection module, so as to realize the transmission of the uplink narrowband signal on the terminal side on the broadband frequency. In this way, when the narrowband resources are limited and the broadband frequency resources are idle, the terminal device can send the uplink narrowband signal on the broadband resources based on network scheduling, thereby improving the transmission performance and resource utilization of the communication system.
[0060] Based on the terminal device including the above-mentioned multi-mode chip, the embodiment of the present application shows a signal transmission method. On the one hand, a narrowband scheduling mechanism is introduced, that is, a mechanism for narrowband channels to schedule wide and narrow wireless resources. The network side can schedule the terminal device to send uplink narrowband signals in narrowband frequency resources, or schedule the terminal device to send uplink narrowband signals in broadband frequency resources, or schedule the terminal device to send uplink broadband signals in broadband frequency resources through a narrowband physical downlink control channel, thereby improving the transmission performance of the communication system. On the other hand, a wide-narrow fusion scheduling mechanism is introduced. The terminal side can configure the transmission path of narrowband baseband processing and broadband RF processing by controlling the path selection module based on the scheduling of the network side. When sending uplink narrowband signals, the broadband RF path can be reused to realize the sharing of spectrum resources and improve the utilization rate of frequency resources.
[0061] The technical solution of the present application is described in detail with specific embodiments below. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.
[0062] For example, Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the structure of the multi-mode chip that integrates broadband and narrowband provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 .like Figure 2 As shown, the broadband and narrowband integrated multi-mode chip of this embodiment includes: a baseband chip, a radio frequency chip, an application processor and a path selection module. The baseband chip is connected to the radio frequency chip through the path selection module, and the application processor is connected to the path selection module and the baseband chip respectively.
[0063] In some embodiments, the baseband chip may include multiple baseband processing modules, and multi-channel baseband processing may improve the processing speed of the baseband chip. The RF chip may include multiple RF processing modules, and multi-channel RF processing may improve the processing speed of the RF chip.
[0064] In some embodiments, the application processor is used to configure a transmission path for transmitting an uplink narrowband signal or an uplink broadband signal by controlling a path selection module according to scheduling information from a network device.
[0065] The multi-mode chip shown in this embodiment adds a path selection module, supports multiple transmission modes, and can be applied to terminal devices of a multi-mode communication system. The terminal devices can send uplink signals based on the transmission mode scheduled by the network side. The path selection module in the multi-mode chip can be regarded as a selection switch module. Under the control of the application processor, a baseband processing module in the baseband chip can be connected to one or more radio frequency processing modules in the radio frequency chip to realize multiple transmission modes.
[0066] The transmission modes supported by the multi-mode chip are: the first transmission mode, the second transmission mode and the third transmission mode. The first transmission mode is to send an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency, the second transmission mode is to send an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency, and the third transmission mode is to send an uplink broadband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0067] For example, Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of the multi-mode chip that integrates broadband and narrowband provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .like Figure 3 As shown, the baseband chip includes a narrowband baseband processing module and a broadband baseband processing module. The narrowband baseband processing module is used to perform baseband processing on the uplink narrowband signal, and the broadband baseband processing module is used to perform baseband processing on the uplink broadband signal. The RF chip includes a narrowband RF processing module and a broadband RF processing module. The narrowband RF processing module is used to perform RF modulation on the uplink narrowband signal, and the broadband RF processing module is used to perform RF modulation on the uplink narrowband signal or the uplink broadband signal.
[0068] In some embodiments, one end of the path selection module is connected to the narrowband baseband processing module and the wideband baseband processing module respectively, and the other end of the path selection module is connected to the narrowband radio frequency processing module and the wideband radio frequency processing module respectively.
[0069] In some embodiments, the application processor is connected to the path selection module to control the path selection module. The application processor is respectively connected to the narrowband baseband processing module and the broadband baseband processing module of the baseband chip.
[0070] In some embodiments, the path selection module is integrated into the baseband chip, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0071] In some embodiments, the application processor is integrated into the baseband chip, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0072] In some embodiments, if the scheduling information is used to indicate that an uplink narrowband signal is sent on a broadband frequency, the application processor is used to configure a first signal transmission path through a control path selection module, and the first signal transmission path includes a narrowband baseband processing module and a broadband radio frequency processing module, such as Figure 5 The transmission mode corresponding to the first signal transmission path is the first transmission mode, that is, the uplink narrowband signal is transmitted on the broadband frequency, and the uplink narrowband signal is processed by the narrowband basic processing module and the broadband radio frequency processing module in sequence, and then processed by the radio frequency front end, and then sent to the antenna for transmission.
[0073] In some embodiments, if the scheduling information is used to indicate that an uplink narrowband signal is sent on a narrowband frequency, the application processor is used to configure a second signal transmission path by controlling the path selection module, and the second signal transmission path includes a narrowband baseband processing module and a narrowband radio frequency processing module, such as Figure 5 The transmission mode corresponding to the second signal transmission path is the second transmission mode, that is, the uplink narrowband signal is transmitted on the narrowband frequency, and the uplink narrowband signal is processed by the narrowband baseband processing module and the narrowband RF processing module in sequence, and then processed by the RF front end, and then sent to the antenna for transmission.
[0074] In some embodiments, if the scheduling information is used to indicate that an uplink broadband signal is sent on a broadband frequency, the application processor is used to configure a third signal transmission path through a control path selection module, and the third signal transmission path includes a broadband baseband processing module and a broadband radio frequency processing module, such as Figure 5 The transmission mode corresponding to the third signal transmission path is the third transmission mode, that is, the uplink broadband signal is transmitted at a broadband frequency, and the uplink broadband signal is processed by the broadband baseband processing module and the broadband RF processing module in sequence, and then processed by the RF front end before being sent to the antenna for transmission.
[0075] In some embodiments, a transmission parameter set is preconfigured (predefined) in the application processor, and the transmission parameter set includes at least one of the following: a first index of a first transmission mode for transmitting an uplink narrowband signal and a transmission parameter set corresponding to the first index; or a second index of a second transmission mode for transmitting an uplink narrowband signal and a transmission parameter set corresponding to the second index; or a third index of a third transmission mode for transmitting an uplink broadband signal and a transmission parameter set corresponding to the third index. The application processor is configured to send an uplink narrowband signal or an uplink broadband signal by querying the transmission parameter set corresponding to the index indicated in the scheduling information.
[0076] The preconfigured transmission parameter set includes but is not limited to modulation mode, coding mode, transmission power, etc. In a multi-modal communication system, by preconfiguring the above transmission parameter set, the network device can carry the index corresponding to the transmission parameter set in the scheduling information to indicate the transmission mode corresponding to the index to the terminal device, which can save the overhead of signaling interaction.
[0077] Based on the index in the scheduling information, the terminal device queries the correspondence between the pre-configured transmission parameter set and the index, and sends the uplink signal based on the transmission parameter set corresponding to the index. Carrying the index in the scheduling information can save the overhead of signaling interaction and improve the transmission performance of the communication system.
[0078] In a multimodal communication system, the terminal device is equipped with the multimode chip shown in the above embodiment. Based on the scheduling on the network side, the uplink narrowband signal can be controlled to be sent at a narrowband frequency or a broadband frequency, or the uplink broadband signal can be controlled to be sent at a broadband frequency.
[0079] The signal transmission method is described in detail below in conjunction with several specific embodiments.
[0080] For example, Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the signal transmission method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 .
[0081] like Figure 6 As shown, the signal transmission method of this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0082] S601. A network device sends scheduling information to a terminal device, where the scheduling information is used to indicate a transmission mode of an uplink signal sent by the terminal device.
[0083] In some embodiments, the network device sends scheduling information to the terminal device on a narrowband physical downlink control channel. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives scheduling information from the network device on the narrowband physical downlink control channel.
[0084] In some embodiments, the network device generates scheduling information by detecting the signal reception and interference conditions of the narrowband signal and the broadband signal to indicate the terminal device based on which transmission mode to send the uplink signal. The transmission mode of the terminal device includes a first transmission mode, a second transmission mode and a third transmission mode. The first transmission mode is to send an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency, the second transmission mode is to send an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency, and the third transmission mode is to send an uplink broadband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0085] S602. The terminal device sends an uplink signal based on the sending mode indicated by the scheduling information.
[0086] In some embodiments, the scheduling information is used to indicate that the transmission mode of the uplink signal sent by the terminal device is the first transmission mode, that is, to indicate that the terminal device sends an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency. Based on the scheduling information, the terminal device sends an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0087] In some embodiments, the scheduling information is used to indicate that the transmission mode of the uplink signal sent by the terminal device is the second transmission mode, that is, to indicate that the terminal device sends an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency. Based on the scheduling information, the terminal device sends an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency.
[0088] In some embodiments, the scheduling information is used to indicate that the transmission mode of the uplink signal sent by the terminal device is the third transmission mode, that is, to indicate that the terminal device sends the uplink broadband signal on the broadband frequency. Based on the scheduling information, the terminal device sends the uplink broadband signal on the broadband frequency.
[0089] In some embodiments, the scheduling information includes an index for indicating a transmission mode of an uplink signal transmitted by a terminal device. For example, a first index corresponds to a first transmission mode, a second index corresponds to a second transmission mode, and a third index corresponds to a third transmission mode.
[0090] The terminal device obtains the transmission parameter set corresponding to the index in the scheduling information by querying the correspondence between the pre-configured transmission parameter set and the index. The terminal device sends an uplink signal based on the transmission parameter set corresponding to the index in the scheduling information.
[0091] In one example, the index indicated by the scheduling information is a first index, the first index corresponds to a first transmission mode, the terminal device obtains a transmission parameter set corresponding to the first index, and sends an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0092] In one example, the index indicated by the scheduling information is a second index, the second index corresponds to a second transmission mode, the terminal device obtains a transmission parameter set corresponding to the second index, and sends an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency.
[0093] In the above two examples, the sending of the uplink narrowband signal includes retransmission or new transmission of the uplink narrowband signal.
[0094] In one example, the index indicated by the scheduling information is a third index, the third index corresponds to a third transmission mode, the terminal device obtains a transmission parameter set corresponding to the third index, and sends an uplink broadband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0095] In the above example, the sending of the uplink broadband signal includes retransmission or new transmission of the uplink broadband signal.
[0096] It should be understood that different sending modes in this embodiment correspond to different sending parameter sets.
[0097] The signal transmission method shown in this embodiment is that the terminal device can send an uplink narrowband signal or an uplink broadband signal based on the transmission mode indicated in the scheduling information sent by the network device. The scheduling information can be carried on a narrowband physical downlink control channel, that is, the network device can schedule the transmission of an uplink narrowband signal or an uplink broadband signal through a narrowband downlink channel. The existing scheme does not support the uplink transmission of broadband signals through narrowband scheduling. The above scheme supports the uplink transmission of narrowband signals or broadband signals through narrowband scheduling, thereby improving the transmission performance of the communication system.
[0098] For example, Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the signal transmission method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .
[0099] like Figure 7 As shown, the signal transmission method of this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0100] S701. Under a first condition, a network device sends scheduling information to a terminal device, where the scheduling information is used to instruct the terminal device to send an uplink narrowband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0101] In this embodiment, the first condition includes at least one of the following: the broadband frequency resources are idle; or the broadband frequency resources are allowed to be preempted; or there is interference in sending uplink narrowband signals at narrowband frequencies; or the narrowband frequency resources are limited.
[0102] In some embodiments, the network device detects the signal reception and interference conditions of narrowband signals and broadband signals and determines that there is interference when sending uplink narrowband signals at narrowband frequencies, or that narrowband frequency resources are limited while broadband frequency resources are idle and available. The network device may send scheduling information to the terminal device via a narrowband physical downlink control channel to instruct the terminal device to use broadband frequencies to send uplink narrowband signals, i.e., to schedule the uplink narrowband signals to be sent at broadband frequencies.
[0103] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The application processor of the terminal device configures the first signal transmission path by controlling the path selection module, and the first signal transmission path includes the narrowband baseband processing module of the baseband chip and the broadband radio frequency processing module of the radio frequency chip. The terminal device transmits the uplink narrowband signal at the broadband frequency through the first signal transmission path. In this embodiment, the terminal device does not need to be configured with a narrowband radio frequency path at the broadband frequency, and the narrowband signal shares the broadband radio frequency path by controlling the path selection module.
[0104] S702. The terminal device sends an uplink signal on a broadband frequency based on the scheduling information, where the uplink signal includes an uplink narrowband signal.
[0105] In some embodiments, the terminal device may send an uplink narrowband signal on the broadband frequency while sending an uplink broadband signal on the broadband frequency based on the scheduling information. Accordingly, the network device receives an uplink signal from the terminal device on the broadband frequency, and the uplink signal may include both an uplink narrowband signal and an uplink broadband signal. The network device may extract the uplink narrowband signal by executing S703.
[0106] S703: The network device separates an uplink narrowband signal from the uplink signal.
[0107] S704: The network device transmits the uplink narrowband signal to a narrowband baseband processing module of the network device for processing.
[0108] In some embodiments, if the uplink signal also includes an uplink broadband signal, the network device may separate the uplink broadband signal from the uplink signal, and transmit the uplink broadband signal to a broadband baseband processing module of the network device for processing.
[0109] In the signal transmission method shown in this embodiment, when the first condition is met, the network device sends scheduling information to the terminal device through the narrowband control channel, instructing the terminal device to send an uplink narrowband signal and / or an uplink broadband signal on a broadband frequency. The terminal device can reuse the broadband radio frequency path when sending an uplink narrowband signal, realize the sharing of frequency resources, and improve the utilization rate of frequency resources.
[0110] Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the signal transmission method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 4 .like Figure 8 As shown, the signal transmission method of this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0111] S801. Under the second condition, the network device sends scheduling information to the terminal device, where the scheduling information is used to instruct the terminal device to send an uplink broadband signal on a broadband frequency.
[0112] In this embodiment, the second condition includes at least one of the following: the narrowband signal coverage is normal and the broadband signal coverage is weak; or, the uplink single sideband frequency resource is available. Normal narrowband signal coverage means that the signal strength of the narrowband signal within its coverage is greater than or equal to a preset threshold. Weak broadband signal coverage means that the signal strength of the broadband signal within its coverage is less than a preset threshold.
[0113] In some embodiments, the network device determines that the narrowband signal coverage is normal and the broadband signal coverage is weak by detecting the signal reception and interference conditions of the narrowband signal and the broadband signal, or the uplink single-sideband frequency resources are available. The network device can send scheduling information to the terminal device through the narrowband physical downlink control channel to instruct the terminal device to use the broadband frequency to send the uplink narrowband signal, that is, to schedule the uplink broadband signal to be sent on the broadband frequency.
[0114] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The application processor of the terminal device configures the third signal transmission path by controlling the path selection module, and the third signal transmission path includes the broadband baseband processing module of the baseband chip and the broadband radio frequency processing module of the radio frequency chip. The terminal device transmits the uplink broadband signal at the broadband frequency through the third signal transmission path.
[0115] S802. The terminal device sends an uplink signal on a broadband frequency based on the scheduling information, where the uplink signal includes an uplink broadband signal.
[0116] In some embodiments, the terminal device may send an uplink narrowband signal on the broadband frequency while sending an uplink broadband signal on the broadband frequency based on the scheduling information. Accordingly, the network device receives an uplink signal from the terminal device on the broadband frequency, and the uplink signal may include both an uplink narrowband signal and an uplink broadband signal. The network device may extract the uplink broadband signal by executing S803.
[0117] S803: The network device separates the uplink broadband signal from the uplink signal.
[0118] S804: The network device transmits the uplink broadband signal to a broadband baseband processing module of the network device for processing.
[0119] In some embodiments, if the uplink signal also includes an uplink narrowband signal, the network device may separate the uplink narrowband signal from the uplink signal and transmit the uplink narrowband signal to a narrowband baseband processing module of the network device for processing.
[0120] The signal transmission method shown in this embodiment, when the second condition is met, the network device can send scheduling information to the terminal device through the narrowband control channel to instruct the terminal device to send an uplink broadband signal on the broadband frequency. The existing method does not support the uplink transmission of broadband signals through the narrowband control channel. The above scheme supports the uplink transmission of broadband signals through narrowband scheduling, which can improve the transmission performance of the communication system.
[0121] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The application processor of the terminal device configures the second signal transmission path through the control path selection module, and the second signal transmission path includes the narrowband baseband processing module of the baseband chip and the narrowband radio frequency processing module of the radio frequency chip. The terminal device sends an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency through the second signal transmission path. In the signal transmission method shown in this embodiment, the network device can send scheduling information to the terminal device through a narrowband control channel, instructing the terminal device to send an uplink narrowband signal on a narrowband frequency. This transmission mode is the existing transmission mode of the current system.
[0122] The public security sector has established a PDT network that supports voice point-to-point calls, voice trunking, and data services with small data volumes. With the expansion of service requirements, the demand for broadband private networks that support multimedia convergence services such as pictures, videos, and real-time positioning, as well as command and dispatch, based on voice trunking communications, is becoming increasingly urgent. Narrowband communication systems can no longer meet existing service requirements. Existing PDT or TETRA are analyzing and introducing broadband evolution solutions.
[0123] For example, Fig. 9 A schematic diagram of spectrum resource allocation provided in an embodiment of the present application. Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, in the field of public safety, the existing spectrum resource allocation is as follows:
[0124] 1) 336-344MHz is the uplink image transmission frequency range, which can be used for public security image acquisition. The public security department can apply for a continuous 4MHz or two non-continuous 2MHz. 336-340MHz is used by the public security department first.
[0125] 2) The 2×5MHz frequency division duplex (FDD) of 351–356MHz (uplink UL) / 361-366MHz (downlink DL) is the frequency range of the narrowband PDT system, which is dedicated to public security.
[0126] 3) 1430–1438 MHz is a dedicated frequency range for police helicopters and drones, used for dedicated one-way image transmission.
[0127] The narrowband PDT system has limited frequency resources and channels and is mainly used for voice communication. In medium and large-scale terminal usage scenarios, it can only support the upload of a small amount of Geographic Information System (GIS) information. When the 340MHz image transmission channel is idle, it is currently unable to schedule support for uplink data transmission, nor does it support triggering the upload of uplink image data.
[0128] Based on the mechanism of scheduling wide and narrow wireless resources through narrowband channels in the aforementioned embodiment, the network side (or system side) may support:
[0129] 1) Scheduling broadband frequency resources through a narrowband physical downlink control channel to send an uplink narrowband signal, that is, the first sending mode of the aforementioned embodiment.
[0130] The first transmission mode is an extended transmission mode. For example, the broadband frequency can be defined as 336-344MHz, and the network side can directly or indirectly instruct the terminal side to send an uplink narrowband signal on the broadband frequency. Direct indication refers to indicating the value of the broadband frequency interval in the scheduling information, and indirect indication refers to indicating an index or identifier in the scheduling information. The network side and the terminal side preset the corresponding relationship between the index or identifier and the broadband frequency interval in advance. The terminal side obtains the broadband frequency interval based on the index or identifier and sends an uplink narrowband signal within the interval.
[0131] The network side detects the uplink 336-344MHz signal transmission, measures the received signal code power (RSCP), received signal strength indication (RSSI) and interference signal code power (ISCP) and other signal conditions in the frequency band, and dispatches and controls the uplink GIS data of the PDT terminal to be sent at the uplink frequency of 336-344MHz according to the frequency usage and interference conditions. Specifically, the baseband signal adopts the PDT technical standard for signal processing (which may correspond to the narrowband baseband processing module of the aforementioned embodiment), and the radio frequency path adopts the shared broadband 336-344MHz radio frequency path for transmission (which may correspond to the broadband radio frequency processing module of the aforementioned embodiment). That is to say, after the baseband signal processing is completed, the terminal switches the PDT baseband signal to the 340MHz broadband radio frequency path for transmission through the path selection module.
[0132] 2) The uplink narrowband signal is sent by scheduling narrowband frequency resources through the narrowband physical downlink control channel, that is, the second sending mode of the aforementioned embodiment.
[0133] In one example, the network side controls the uplink transmission of the PDT voice signal or the GIS signal in the above-mentioned narrowband frequency of 351-356 MHz by sending a narrowband physical downlink control channel.
[0134] 3) Scheduling broadband frequency resources through a narrowband physical downlink control channel to send an uplink broadband signal, that is, the third sending mode of the aforementioned embodiment.
[0135] In one example, a transmission parameter set for 336-344MHz broadband services is predefined, such as a video service parameter set for 1MBps / 2M / 4MBps orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The network side detects the uplink 336-344MHz signal transmission, measures the RSCP, RSSI and ISCP of the frequency band, and schedules the terminal side to send broadband signals for video services at 336-344MHz through a narrowband physical downlink control channel based on frequency usage and interference.
[0136] In one example, the 340MHz image transmission does not support voice. If image transmission + voice communication is needed, a set of concurrent video and voice services of 1Mbps+PDT narrowband voice coding (NVOC) can be predefined, and scheduling information can be sent through a narrowband physical downlink control channel to implement narrowband channel scheduling for uplink transmission of broadband video and voice.
