Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communications, and more specifically, to a transmission power control method and device. Background Art

[0002] In the terrestrial network, for the random access process, after receiving the broadcast message, the terminal device randomly selects a preamble with equal probability and sends the preamble to the network device through Msg1; after receiving the preamble sent by the terminal device, the network device sends a random access response message (RAR) to the terminal device through Msg2, and the RAR includes the uplink timing advance (TA) and uplink grant (UL grant) of the terminal device; after receiving the RAR, the terminal device sends Msg3 according to the resources allocated by the UL grant, and / or transmits the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) for the target cell.

[0003] However, for satellite communications corresponding to non-terrestrial networks (NTN), due to the long distance between the terminal device and the satellite, the round-trip signal transmission usually takes several milliseconds or even tens of milliseconds. Accessing the target cell through the random access process will result in a long switching delay, and a long switching delay is very likely to cause the terminal device to fail to switch; and the transmission power when transmitting the PUSCH for the target cell is obtained by the terminal device based on the reference signal receiving power (RSRP) of the system synchronization block (SSB) and the calculated path loss is not accurate, resulting in inaccurate transmission power when transmitting the PUSCH for the target cell, which in turn causes the terminal device to fail to switch. Summary of the invention

[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide a transmission power control method and device, which can improve the success rate of terminal equipment switching cells.

[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, a communication method is provided, which can be executed by a terminal device, or by a component of the terminal device, such as a processor, a chip, or a chip system of the terminal device, or can be implemented by a logic module or software that can implement all or part of the functions of the terminal device.

[0007] In the transmission power control method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the random access response message sent by the first network device to the terminal device includes first indication information for indicating a first reference signal, wherein the first reference signal is used by the terminal device to determine the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal, and then determine the first transmission power for sending uplink data for the target cell. Since the first transmission power is determined according to the first reference signal, the first transmission power is more accurate, which can improve the success rate of the terminal device switching cells.

This solution can enable the terminal device to determine the first transmission power according to the first TPC command value and the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal.

[0013] Among them, X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, X7, and X8 are all positive integers. This scheme makes the power value corresponding to the TPC command value included in the first uplink authorization in the random access response message larger, makes the first transmission power larger, and can further improve the success rate of the terminal device switching cells.

In one possible implementation, the network device may configure the UL grant according to the parameters related to the first transmission power in the configured grant, that is, add a field corresponding to the information in the configured grant in the UL grant, and configure the information in the configured grant in the UL grant. The related parameters may include at least one of the following: path loss reference index, that is, the ID of the first reference signal, power control loop to use, P0-PUSCH-Alpha parameter, path loss reference signal (that is, first reference signal) connection (path loss reference linking), SRS resource indicator (SRS resource indicator), or other related information, which will not be repeated here.

[0117] S520, the terminal device determines a first transmission power according to a first reference signal.

[0118] In a possible implementation, the terminal device may determine the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal based on the first reference signal, and further, the terminal device may determine the first transmission power based on the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal.

[0119] In another possible implementation, the first uplink authorization includes a first transmission power control (TPC) command value, and the terminal device can determine the first transmission power based on the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal determined by the first reference signal and the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value.

[0120] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can calculate the path loss based on the first reference signal. Optionally, the terminal device can use the RSRP of layer three (L3) to calculate the path loss; optionally, the terminal device can use the RSRP of layer 1 (L1) to calculate the path loss. This embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0121] In the embodiment of the present application, the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value is determined based on the first TPC command value and the first mapping relationship, and the first mapping relationship includes a mapping relationship between each TPC command value in multiple TPC command values ​​and the corresponding power value.

[0122] Exemplarily, the first mapping relationship may be as shown in Table 2 (i.e., the mapping relationship between the existing TPC command value and the power value corresponding to the TPC command value); or, exemplarily, the first mapping relationship may be as shown in Table 3, wherein X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, and X7 may be the same or different positive integers, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. Optionally, Table 2 or Table 3 may be predefined by the protocol, or determined in other ways, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Table 3, the power value corresponding to the TPC command value is larger, so that the value of the first transmission power is further increased, thereby enabling the terminal device to send uplink data to the first network device with a larger first transmission power, which can improve the success rate of the terminal device switching cells.

[0123] Table 2

[0124] TPC command value Power value 0 -6 1 -4 2 -2 3 0 4 2 5 4 6 6 7 8

[0125] Table 3

[0126] TPC command value Power value 0 -6+X1 1 -4+X2 2 -2+X3 3 0+X4 4 2+X5 5 4+X6 6 6+X7 7 8+X8

[0127] In another possible implementation, the first uplink grant includes the first TPC command value and the third indication information (δ new ). The first mapping relationship between the first TPC command value and the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value can refer to Table 2 or Table 3 in the above possible implementation methods. Among them, the third indication information is used to indicate the increase in the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value. The terminal device can determine the first transmission power based on the first TPC command value, the path loss determined by the first reference signal, and the third indication information. For example, the first TPC command value is "0", the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value is "-6db", and the increase indicated by the third indication information is "5db", then the terminal device can determine the first transmission power based on the power value "-6db" corresponding to the first TPC command value + "5db" indicated by the third indication information = "-1db" and the path loss determined by the first reference signal.

[0128] In an embodiment of the present application, the third indication information may indicate a specific power value, such as "5db", which is more flexible; or, the third indication information indicates "0", indicating that the power value is not increased, and the third indication information indicates "1", indicating that the power value is increased, wherein the size of the increased power value is predefined by the protocol, such as 5db, which can save signaling overhead, wherein the third indication information can be carried in a newly added field of the random access response message.

[0129] Alternatively, as a possible implementation, the first TPC command value indicates the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value including the above-mentioned increase. For example, the first TPC command value is "0", and the power value corresponding to the first TPC command value is "-6db" + increase "5db" = "-1db". Optionally, the third indication information is used to indicate the updated first TPC command value, that is, δ' msg2,b,f,c =δ msg2,b,f,c +δ new , where δ' msg2,b,f,c represents the updated first TPC command value, δ msg2,b,f,c represents the existing first TPC command value, δ new Optionally, the third indication information may also be used to update the power control adjustment state f b,f,c (i,l), that is, f′ b,f,c (i,l)=f b,f,c (i,l)+δ new .

[0130] In an embodiment of the present application, the first TPC command value and the third indication information may not be included in the first uplink authorization, but may be sent as separate information, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present application, the first network device may also send fourth indication information to the terminal device, and the fourth indication information is used to indicate the increase in transmission power. The terminal device may determine the first transmission power based on the fourth indication information, or the terminal device may determine the first transmission power based on the fourth indication information and any one or more of the above methods. For example, the fourth indication information indicates that the increase in transmission power is 5db, and the terminal device may determine the first transmission power based on the path loss determined by the first reference signal and the increase in transmission power "5db" indicated by the fourth indication information. It should be noted that the fourth indication information may be included in a newly added field of the random access response message, and the fourth indication information may also be sent as a separate message, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0132] S530, the terminal device sends uplink data for the target cell according to the first transmission power. Correspondingly, the first network device receives the uplink data for the target cell.

[0133] Exemplarily, the terminal device may send PUSCH and / or Msg3 in the target cell according to the first transmission power, thereby accessing the target cell.

[0134] In the transmission power control method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the random access response message sent by the first network device to the terminal device includes first indication information for indicating a first reference signal, wherein the first reference signal is used by the terminal device to determine the path loss corresponding to the first reference signal, and then determine the first transmission power for sending uplink data for the target cell. Since the first transmission power is determined based on the first reference signal, the first transmission power is more accurate, which can improve the success rate of the terminal device switching cells. Furthermore, the power value corresponding to the TPC command value included in the first uplink authorization in the random access response message is larger, so that the first transmission power is larger, which can further improve the success rate of the terminal device switching cells.

[0135] Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of an example of a transmission power control method provided in an embodiment of the present application.

In the embodiment of the present application, the processing performed by a single execution subject (for example, a terminal device, or a first network device, or a second network device) can also be divided into executions by multiple execution subjects, and these execution subjects can be logically and / or physically separated. For example, the processing performed by the first network device can be divided into executions by at least one of CU, DU and RU. Exemplary, such as Figure 7 The method 700 includes:

[0145] S710: The first network device sends a random access response message to the second network device. Correspondingly, the second network device receives the random access response message from the first network device.

[0146] In an embodiment of the present application, the random access response message includes the first indication information as described in method 500.

[0159] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device sends a preamble code for the target cell to the first network device, so that the first network device sends a random access response message to the terminal device through the second network device.

[0160] In an embodiment of the present application, the second network device sends a second indication message to the terminal device, so that the terminal device sends a preamble code for the target cell, and then obtains a random access response message corresponding to the target cell. This allows the terminal device to obtain the random access response message of the target cell in advance when accessing the current first cell, that is, when the terminal device accesses the first cell, the first and second steps of the random access process of the target cell are completed in advance, which saves the time of the random access process of the terminal device accessing the target cell, avoids the switching failure caused by the delay of the random access process of the terminal device accessing the target cell, and improves the success rate of the terminal device switching to the target cell.

[0165] Optionally, the second network device may send a handover command to the terminal device according to the measurement result or channel condition, instructing the terminal device to switch to the target cell, or instructing the terminal device to send uplink data for the target cell. Specifically, when the channel condition deteriorates or the measurement result is poor, a handover command is sent to the terminal device. The timing of the handover can be determined more accurately.
