Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to a transmission method and apparatus in a wireless communication system, particularly to a method and apparatus for transmitting wireless signals in a wireless communication system supporting a cellular network. Background Art

[0002] In the existing NR (New Radio) system, spectrum resources are statically divided into FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) spectrum and TDD (Time Division Duplex) spectrum. When the uplink and downlink traffic is asymmetric, the spectrum utilization rate of FDD is relatively low. TDD can transmit and receive through different time slots on the same spectrum, but its uplink and downlink transmissions cannot be carried out simultaneously, and there is a conversion interval between the uplink and downlink. TDD does not require symmetric spectrum resources and can flexibly set the uplink and downlink resource ratios to adapt to asymmetric service requirements. However, the uplink-downlink conversion will bring additional transmission waiting delay, and the discontinuous uplink resources in the time domain will also cause limited uplink coverage. Using full duplex technology to transmit and receive simultaneously in the same frequency band can combine the advantages of FDD and TDD, and theoretically the spectrum efficiency can be doubled, but it will introduce additional self-interference (i.e., the interference of the device's own transmitted signal to its own received signal). Summary of the Invention

Figure 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for a user plane 350 and a control plane 300, Figure 3Show the radio protocol architecture of the control plane 300 for the first communication node device (UE, gNB or RSU (Road Side Unit) in V2X (Vehicle to Everything), in-vehicle device or in-vehicle communication module) and the second communication node device (gNB, UE or RSU in V2X, in-vehicle device or in-vehicle communication module), or between two UEs, using three layers: Layer 1 (L1), Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3). L1 is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (Physical Layer) signal processing functions. L1 will be referred to as PHY301 in this article. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY301 and is responsible for the link between the first communication node device and the second communication node device and between two UEs through PHY301. L2 305 includes a MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, an RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303 and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304, and these sublayers terminate at the second communication node device.

The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides security by encrypting data packets and provides handover support for the first communication node device between the second communication node devices. The RLC sublayer 303 provides segmentation and reassembly of upper layer data packets, retransmission of lost data packets and reordering of data packets to compensate for disordered reception due to HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Qequest).

The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for HARQ operations. The RRC (Radio Resource Control) sublayer 306 in L3 of the control plane 300 is responsible for obtaining radio resources (i.e., radio bearers) and configuring the lower layers using the RRC signaling between the second communication node device and the first communication node device.The radio protocol architecture of the user plane 350 includes Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2). The radio protocol architecture for the first communication node device and the second communication node device in the user plane 350 is substantially the same as the corresponding layers and sub-layers in the control plane 300 for the physical layer 351, the PDCP sub-layer 354 in the L2 layer 355, the RLC sub-layer 353 in the L2 layer 355, and the MAC sub-layer 352 in the L2 layer 355. However, the PDCP sub-layer 354 also provides header compression for upper layer data packets to reduce radio transmission overhead. The L2 layer 355 in the user plane 350 also includes an SDAP (Service Data Adaptation Protocol) sub-layer 356, and the SDAP sub-layer 356 is responsible for the mapping between QoS (Quality of Service) flows and data radio bearers (DRBs, Data Radio Bearer) to support service diversity. Although not shown, the first communication node device may have several upper layers above the L2 layer 355, including a network layer (e.g., an IP (Internet Protocol) layer) that terminates at the P-GW on the network side and an application layer that terminates at the other end of the connection (e.g., a remote UE, a server, etc.).

[0154] The second communication device 450 includes a controller / processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmitting processor 468, a receiving processor 456, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 457, a multi-antenna receiving processor 458, a transmitter / receiver 454, and an antenna 452.

[0155] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the first communication device 410, upper layer data packets from the core network are provided to the controller / processor 475. The controller / processor 475 implements the functionality of the L2 layer. In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 475 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and radio resource allocation to the second communication device 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the second communication device 450. The transmit processor 416 and the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 implement various signal processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer). The transmit processor 416 implements encoding and interleaving to facilitate forward error correction (FEC) at the second communication device 450, and mapping of signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (e.g., binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), M-phase shift keying (M-PSK), M-quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)). The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs digital space precoding on the encoded and modulated symbols, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing, to generate one or more spatial streams. The transmit processor 416 then maps each spatial stream to subcarriers, multiplexes with reference signals (e.g., pilots) in the time domain and / or frequency domain, and then uses the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to generate a physical channel carrying a time-domain multi-carrier symbol stream. Subsequently, the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs transmit analog precoding / beamforming operations on the time-domain multi-carrier symbol stream. Each transmitter 418 converts the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 into a radio frequency stream and then provides it to different antennas 420.

[0156] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the second communication device 450, each receiver 454 receives signals via its respective antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated onto the radio frequency carrier and converts the radio frequency stream into a baseband multi-carrier symbol stream which is provided to the receive processor 456. The receive processor 456 and the multi-antenna receive processor 458 perform various signal processing functions of the L1 layer. The multi-antenna receive processor 458 performs receive analog precoding / beamforming operations on the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream from the receivers 454. The receive processor 456 uses the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to convert the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream after the receive analog precoding / beamforming operations from the time domain to the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, the physical layer data signal and the reference signal are demultiplexed by the receive processor 456, where the reference signal will be used for channel estimation, and the data signal is recovered for any spatial stream destined for the second communication device 450 after multi-antenna detection in the multi-antenna receive processor 458. The symbols on each spatial stream are demodulated and recovered in the receive processor 456, and soft decisions are generated. Subsequently, the receive processor 456 decodes and deinterleaves the soft decisions to recover the upper layer data and control signals transmitted by the first communication device 410 on the physical channel. Subsequently, the upper layer data and control signals are provided to the controller / processor 459. The controller / processor 459 performs the functions of the L2 layer. The controller / processor 459 may be associated with a memory 460 that stores program code and data. The memory 460 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to recover upper layer data packets from the core network. Subsequently, the upper layer data packets are provided to all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Various control signals may also be provided to the L3 for L3 processing.

[0157] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, at the second communication device 450, the data source 467 is used to provide upper layer data packets to the controller / processor 459. The data source 467 represents all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar to the transmit function described at the first communication device 410 in the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 implements header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between logical and transport channels based on radio resource allocation, and implements the L2 layer functions for the user plane and the control plane. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the first communication device 410. The transmit processor 468 performs modulation mapping and channel coding processing. The multi-antenna transmit processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing. Subsequently, the transmit processor 468 modulates the generated spatial streams into multi-carrier / single-carrier symbol streams, and after the analog precoding / beamforming operation in the multi-antenna transmit processor 457, provides them to different antennas 452 via the transmitter 454. Each transmitter 454 first converts the baseband symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 457 into a radio frequency symbol stream and then provides it to the antenna 452.

[0158] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, the functions at the first communication device 410 are similar to the receive functions described at the second communication device 450 in the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450. Each receiver 418 receives radio frequency signals through its corresponding antenna 420, converts the received radio frequency signals into baseband signals, and provides the baseband signals to the multi-antenna receive processor 472 and the receive processor 470. The receive processor 470 and the multi-antenna receive processor 472 jointly implement the L1 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 implements the L2 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 may be associated with a memory 476 that stores program code and data. The memory 476 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, the controller / processor 475 provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing to recover the upper layer data packets from the UE 450. The upper layer data packets from the controller / processor 475 may be provided to the core network.
