Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a configuration method, a user equipment, a network equipment, an electronic equipment, and a communication system. Background Art

[0002] In R15, due to the limitations of the codebook and PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel) power control, full power transmission (e.g., 26 dBm) cannot be achieved in some cases, which affects the uplink coverage and rate. In 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) R16 (Release 16), UL full power Tx (uplink full power transmission) was proposed, and different uplink full power transmission modes (UL FP Tx Mode) were designed for UEs (User Equipment) with PA (Power Amplifier) capabilities.

[0003] PUSCH supports two transmission schemes: codebook-based transmission and non-codebook-based transmission. For codebook-based transmission, the UE determines its codebook subset based on the TPMI (Transmit precoding matrix indicator) and the received codebook subset type.

[0004] The uplink full power transmission mode and the codebook subset type are important parameters that determine the UE's uplink transmission method. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The inventors found that: in some cases, the power of the UE changes, for example, the UE performs power back-off, but after the UE power changes, the original configured uplink full power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type are still used, resulting in a mismatch between the uplink full power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type and the current power, which may affect the uplink scheduling and lead to a decline in communication quality.

[0006] One technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is: how to improve the accuracy of the configuration information of the user equipment and enhance the communication quality.

[0007] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a configuration method executed by a user equipment is provided, including: receiving configuration information, where the configuration information is used to indicate at least one piece of information of the configured uplink full power transmission mode and codebook subset type of the user equipment at the current power level.

[0047] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, rather than all, embodiments of the present disclosure. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present disclosure, its application, or uses. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0048] The present disclosure provides a configuration method, which will be described below in conjunction with Figures 1 - 2 for description.

[0049] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of some embodiments of the configuration method of the present disclosure. As Figure 1 shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps S102 to S104.

[0050] In step S102, the network device sends configuration information to the user equipment (UE).

[0051] In step S104, the user equipment receives the configuration information sent by the network device.

[0052] The network device is, for example, a base station, a relay device, an access point, etc. The configuration information is used to indicate at least one piece of information among the configured uplink full-power transmission mode and the codebook subset type under the current power class (PC). For example, the configuration information includes at least one piece of information among the power class, the uplink full-power transmission mode, and the codebook subset type.

[0053] In some embodiments, the uplink full-power transmission mode includes at least one of: full-power mode 0, full-power mode 1, and full-power mode 2. The codebook subset type includes at least one of: fullyAndPartialAndNonCoherent, PartialAndNonCoherent, and nonCoherent.

[0054] In some embodiments, when at least one of the following occurs: the user equipment reports a power back-off value, the user equipment reports a power increase value, the user equipment reports that the power headroom (PH) exceeds a threshold, and the user equipment reports auxiliary information, after the configuration of the user equipment changes, the network device sends the configuration information to the user equipment, and correspondingly, the user equipment receives the configuration information.

[0055] In some embodiments, the configuration information can be indicated by RRC (Radio Resource Control) parameters or DCI (Downlink Control Information). The RRC parameters can be new parameters or existing parameters in the standard. A new indication field can be added to the DCI or an existing field in the standard can be used to indicate the configuration information.

[0056] In some embodiments, the configuration information is represented by a first RRC parameter and its corresponding value, where the first RRC parameter is jointly represented by at least two of the identification information of the power class, the identification information of the uplink full-power transmission, and the identification information of the codebook subset.

[0057] For example, the first RRC parameter may be a newly added parameter. The first RRC parameter may be configured semi-statically or dynamically. When the first RRC parameter is configured semi-statically, after the user equipment reports its capability information, at least one piece of information among the power level, the uplink full-power transmission mode, and the codebook subset type may be configured through the first RRC parameter. When the first RRC parameter is configured dynamically, after the power of the user equipment changes, at least one piece of information among the power level, the uplink full-power transmission mode, and the codebook subset type may be configured through the first RRC parameter.

[0058] For example, the identification information includes at least one of a name and an indicator.

[0059] For example, the first RRC parameter presents the association of the configurations of at least two of the uplink full-power transmission mode, the power level, and the codebook subset type. For example, the first RRC parameter is represented as ul-FullPowerTransmissionPC3-r18, indicating the full-power transmission mode that can be configured for a user equipment supporting the power level PC3.

[0060] For example, when at least one of the following occurs: reporting of a power back-off value, reporting of a power increase value, power headroom exceeding a threshold, or reporting of auxiliary information, the user equipment will configure the uplink full-power transmission mode and / or the codebook subset type of the user equipment according to the configuration information of the first RRC parameter. For example, after the power of the user equipment backs off to PC3, the full-power transmission mode will be configured according to the configuration information of ul-FullPowerTransmissionPC3-r18.

[0061] For example, when at least one of the following occurs: reporting of a power back-off value, reporting of a power increase value, power headroom exceeding a threshold, or reporting of auxiliary information, the user equipment may also ignore the first RRC parameter and instead select at least one of the uplink full-power transmission mode, the codebook subset type, and the power level configured in the RRC reconfiguration, or at least one of the currently configured uplink full-power transmission mode, the codebook subset type, and the power level, as its configuration information.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first RRC parameter is determined according to the combined capability information reported by the user equipment, where the combined capability information is reported jointly or bundled through at least two of the power level capability information, the uplink full-power transmission mode capability information, and the codebook subset capability information.

[0063] For example, the first RRC parameter depends on the user equipment capabilities. After the user equipment reports the combined capabilities of at least two of the corresponding uplink full-power transmission mode, power level, and codebook subset type, the types of parameters in the corresponding first RRC parameter are configured according to the types of the combined capabilities. For example, if the user equipment reports the combined capabilities of the power level and the uplink full-power transmission mode, the first RRC parameter can be ul-FullPowerTransmissionPCx-r18.

[0064] In some embodiments, when both the uplink power control parameter and the physical uplink control channel dedicated parameter are configured in the partial bandwidth uplink dedicated parameter, the configuration of the first RRC parameter including the identification information of the uplink full-power transmission is not supported.

[0065] For example, if the first RRC parameter involves the configuration of the uplink full-power transmission mode, the first RRC parameter cannot be configured when ul-powerControl (uplink power control) is configured in BWP-UplinkDedicated (partial bandwidth uplink dedicated) and PUCCH-config (physical uplink control channel configuration) is also configured in BWP-UplinkDedicated.

[0066] In this case, the user equipment can obtain the uplink full-power transmission mode through other means. For example, the user equipment can obtain the uplink full-power transmission mode through RRC reconfiguration.

[0067] In some embodiments, the configuration information is implemented through the RRC Reconfiguration method.

[0068] In some embodiments, the configuration information is represented by the second RRC parameter and its corresponding value and / or the third RRC parameter and its corresponding value, where the second RRC parameter is represented by the identification information of the uplink full-power transmission, and the third RRC parameter is represented by the identification information of the codebook subset.

[0069] The second RRC parameter and the third RRC parameter are existing parameters in the RRC message, and no new RRC parameters are introduced.

[0070] For example, when at least one of the following occurs: reporting of the power back-off value, reporting of the power rise value, power margin exceeding the threshold, and reporting of the auxiliary information, RRC reconfiguration is performed to reconfigure at least one of the full-power transmission mode and the codebook subset mode, and when at least one of the following occurs: reporting of the power back-off value, reporting of the power rise value, power margin exceeding the threshold, and reporting of the auxiliary information, RRC reconfiguration continues.

[0071] In some embodiments, during the RRC reconfiguration period, scheduling information is not received; and / or during the RRC reconfiguration period, scheduling information is received and ignored; and / or during the RRC reconfiguration period, scheduling information is received and processed according to the scheduling information.

[0072] For example, during the RRC reconfiguration time, the user equipment does not expect to receive scheduling information. For example, scheduling information corresponding to DCI or MAC (Medium Access Control) CE (Control Element).

[0073] For example, during the RRC reconfiguration time, the user equipment receives scheduling information but ignores the scheduling indication. For example, the user equipment receives indication information corresponding to DCI or MAC CE but does not perform corresponding scheduling.

[0074] For example, during the RRC reconfiguration time, the user equipment will continue to receive scheduling information and follow the scheduling indication corresponding to the received DCI or MAC CE.

[0075] In some embodiments, the scheduling information includes at least one of configuration information of a power level, configuration information of uplink full-power transmission, and configuration information of a codebook subset.

[0076] For example, the scheduling information includes at least one of a power level, an uplink full-power transmission mode, and a codebook subset type.

[0077] For example, after the user equipment reports auxiliary information, the full-power transmission mode and / or the codebook subset mode are reconfigured, and RRC reconfiguration continues after the user equipment reports auxiliary information next time.

[0078] In some embodiments, the auxiliary information includes information related to the power change of the user equipment, the auxiliary information includes information related to the configuration modification of the user equipment, and / or the auxiliary information includes information related to the measurement report of the user equipment.

[0079] In some embodiments, the information related to the power change of the user equipment includes at least one of a power headroom report, a maximum transmission power, and a change amount of the power level; the information related to the configuration modification of the user equipment includes information for modifying at least one of the power level, the uplink full-power transmission mode, and the codebook subset type; the information related to the measurement report of the user equipment includes information of a radio resource management (RRM) measurement report.

[0080] For example, the auxiliary information is power-related information, such as at least one of a PHR (Power Headroom Report), a PCmax (maximum transmission power), and a PC change amount.

[0081] For example, the auxiliary information is configuration modification related information. For example, it is to apply to modify at least one of the power level, uplink full-power transmission mode, and codebook subset type.

[0082] For example, the auxiliary information is measurement report related information. For example, after the user equipment performs RRM (Radio Resource Management) measurement and reports it, the channel state indicates that the current full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset mode is not suitable, which triggers RRC reconfiguration. RRM measurement includes, for example, measurement of SSB (Synchronization Signal Block) or CSI-RS (Channel State Information-Reference Signal).

[0083] For example, the configuration of at least one of the power level, uplink full-power transmission mode, and codebook subset type through RRC reconfiguration depends on the capabilities of the user equipment.

[0084] In some embodiments, the configuration information is carried by DCI.

[0085] For example, the configuration information is indicated separately by DCI without making some modifications to the RRC signaling. A new indication field can be added to the DCI, or an existing field in the standard can be used to indicate the configuration information, or a new DCI different from the existing DCI types in the standard can be defined to indicate the configuration information.

[0086] In some embodiments, the DCI includes a first field, and the first field is used to explicitly or implicitly indicate at least one of the configured uplink full-power transmission mode and codebook subset information at the current power level.

[0087] For example, the first field is a new DCI field, indicating the uplink full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type at the current power level.

[0088] For example, the first field can be directly defined as the uplink full-power transmission mode indication field, used to explicitly indicate the uplink full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type, and is indicated by N-bit information, where N is an integer greater than 0.

[0089] For example, the first field is a new DCI field, which can implicitly indicate the supported uplink full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type.

[0090] For example, the first field is an existing DCI field, and implicit indication is performed by reusing the existing DCI field. For example, the current indicated uplink full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type is deduced by means of the indicated TPMI (Transmit Precoding Matrix Indicator) information.

[0091] In some embodiments, the DCI includes a second field, and the reserved bits in the second field are used to indicate at least one piece of information about the configured uplink full-power transmission mode and codebook subset at the current power level, and the bits other than the reserved bits in the second field are used to indicate other information.

[0092] For example, the second field is an existing DCI field, and explicit indication is performed by reusing the existing DCI indication field. For example, the legacy bit information of the TPMI field or the FDRA (Frequency Domain Resource Allocation) field is reused for indication.

[0093] In some embodiments, the DCI information is group common DCI; or the DCI is used to indicate at least one piece of information about the uplink full-power transmission mode and codebook subset of multiple carriers at the current power level.

[0094] For example, a new type of DCI is defined to indicate the uplink full-power transmission mode and / or codebook subset type at the current power level. This new DCI may be group common DCI, such as DCI format 2_10. This new DCI may be a DCI indicating multi-carrier scheduling information, which is used to indicate the uplink full-power transmission mode and / codebook subset type under multiple carriers, such as DCI format 3_0 or 3_1.

[0095] In some embodiments, the configuration information is jointly indicated by RRC signaling and DCI.

[0096] In some embodiments, the RRC signaling includes: a first RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values, where the first RRC parameter is jointly represented by at least two of the identification information of the power level, the identification information of the uplink full-power transmission, and the identification information of the codebook subset; the DCI is used to indicate the activated value among the one or more values.

[0097] For example, at least one of the power level, uplink full-power transmission mode, and codebook subset type of the user equipment will be configured by RRC and correspondingly indicated by DCI.

[0098] In some embodiments, the RRC signaling is RRC reconfiguration signaling, and the RRC reconfiguration signaling includes: a second RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values and / or a third RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values, where the second RRC parameter is represented by identification information of uplink full-power transmission, and the third RRC parameter is represented by identification information of a codebook subset; when the RRC reconfiguration signaling includes multiple parameters, the DCI is used to indicate the activated parameter among the multiple parameters and the activated value corresponding to the activated parameter; when the RRC reconfiguration message includes one parameter, the DCI is used to indicate the activated value corresponding to the one parameter.

[0099] In some embodiments, the RRC signaling includes a first RRC signaling and a second RRC signaling. The first RRC signaling includes: a first RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values, where the first RRC parameter is jointly represented by at least two of identification information of a power level, identification information of uplink full-power transmission, and identification information of a codebook subset; the second RRC signaling is RRC reconfiguration signaling, and the RRC reconfiguration signaling includes: a second RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values and / or a third RRC parameter and one or more corresponding values, where the second RRC parameter is represented by identification information of uplink full-power transmission, and the third RRC parameter is represented by identification information of a codebook subset; the DCI is used to indicate the activated parameter and the activated value corresponding to the activated parameter.

[0100] In some embodiments, the DCI includes an activated value or a sequence number corresponding to the activated value.

[0101] In some embodiments, the DCI includes a first field, and the first field is used to explicitly or implicitly indicate the activated parameter and the activated value corresponding to the activated parameter; or the DCI includes a second field, and the reserved bits in the second field are used to indicate the activated parameter and the activated value corresponding to the activated parameter, and the bits other than the reserved bits in the second field are used to indicate other information.

[0102] For example, the first RRC parameter is a newly introduced RRC parameter, such as ul-FullPowerTransmissionPC3-r18.

[0103] For example, the second RRC parameter and the third RRC parameter are existing RRC parameters in the RRC reconfiguration message, that is, the original RRC parameters are reused.

[0104] There can be one or more of the first RRC parameter, the second RRC parameter, and the third RRC parameter. Each first RRC parameter, each second RRC parameter, and each third RRC parameter can be configured with one or more corresponding values. In the case of configuring multiple numerical values in the first RRC parameter, the second RRC parameter, or the third RRC parameter, the DCI is used to indicate the activated value.

[0105] For example, the DCI can indicate the configured (activated) value / uplink full power transmission mode / codebook subset type, which can be indicated in a new field in a explicit / implicit manner, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by a new DCI, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by reusing an existing field.

[0106] For example, the DCI can indicate the configured ordinal number. For example, if the (first, second, or third) RRC parameter is configured with 4 values, the DCI may indicate the activated value by indicating the ordinal numbers (00, 01, 10, 11) corresponding to these 4 values. It can be indicated in a new field in a explicit / implicit manner, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by a new DCI, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by reusing an existing field.

[0107] The implementation manner of the above configuration information may depend on the UE capabilities.

[0108] For example, when both the original RRC parameter and the newly introduced RRC parameter are configured, at least one of the second RRC parameter and the third RRC parameter and the first RRC parameter can be configured simultaneously, and the activated RRC parameter is indicated by the DCI.

[0109] For example, it can be indicated in a new DCI field in a explicit / implicit manner, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by a new DCI, or be explicitly / implicitly indicated by reusing an existing DCI field.

[0110] For example, in the case where there are multiple configured RRC parameters, the DCI not only carries the activated RRC parameter, but may also carry information on the corresponding configured numerical value, uplink full power transmission mode, codebook subset type, or configured ordinal number.

[0111] The implementation manner of the above configuration information may depend on the UE capabilities.

[0112] In the above embodiments, the user equipment receives configuration information, which is used to indicate at least one of the configured uplink full power transmission mode and the codebook subset type at the current power level of the user equipment. According to the method of the above embodiments, after the power changes, the user equipment can still obtain at least one of the uplink full power transmission mode and the codebook subset type that matches the current power level, thereby improving the accuracy of the configuration information of the user equipment and enhancing the communication quality.

[0113] The following will combine with Figure 2 to describe some other embodiments of the configuration method of the present disclosure.

[0114] Figure 2 The flowchart of some other embodiments of the configuration method of the present disclosure. As Figure 2 shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps S202 to S206.

[0115] In step S202, the network device sends configuration information to the user equipment (UE).
