Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to an information transmission method, device, equipment and non-transitory readable storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a wireless communication system based on multiple RISs (Reconfigurable Intelligence Surfaces), on the one hand, through the RIS devices deployed between the base station and the terminal user, a line-of-sight link can be dynamically established on demand in a blind area or at the edge of a cell where the line-of-sight communication is not available or the signal quality is poor, thereby improving the network coverage quality and reducing the coverage blind area. On the other hand, a distributed multipoint transmission can be constructed by using distributed RIS nodes to obtain higher diversity or multiplexing (and / or beamforming) gain. However, since the RIS is a passive device (cannot process the forwarded signal), the signal in the working frequency band is directly forwarded (such as transmission, reflection, etc.), and all signals arriving at the RIS will be forwarded. Therefore, in any of the above cases, for a multiple RIS multiple UE (User Equipment or terminal) system, the signal forwarded by the RIS can be a useful signal for UE1, but it is an interference signal for UE2 (UE2 refers to other UEs except UE1), that is, the RIS can cause interference to non-target UEs (such as UE2).

[0003] From the above, in the prior art, in the multiple RIS multiple UE scenario, the RIS can cause interference to non-target UEs. SUMMARY

According to different application scenarios, the base station can also be referred to as an access point, or can be a device in an access network that communicates with wireless terminal devices through one or more sectors over an air interface, or other names.

[0162] First, the contents related to the scheme provided by the embodiments of the present application are introduced.

[0163] For a single RIS system, the coverage or direction of the RIS can be fixed in a certain area statically or semi-statically, a fixed virtual link is established, and the system performance is improved. However, the following problems exist:

[0164] For a multi-UE wireless communication system based on multiple RISs as shown in Figure 2 In addition to considering the coverage of signals, the interference problem between multiple RISs and multiple UEs also needs to be considered. At present, there is only a coverage enhancement scheme for a single RIS single UE system, and there is no effective and feasible adjustment scheme for multiple RIS multiple UEs.

[0165] In addition, the coverage enhancement scheme for a single RIS or a single UE is not applicable to interference coordination adjustment in the case of multiple RISs and multiple UEs. For a multi-RIS multi-UE system, how to adjust the phase shift matrix of multiple RISs to provide fair and consistent services for multiple UEs (or improve cell capacity) is a problem that needs to be solved. To this end, the coverage range and direction of the RIS need to be reasonably adjusted to improve system performance and reduce interference conflicts.

[0166] Based on the above, the embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method, device, equipment and non-transitory readable storage medium to solve the problem that multiple RISs and multiple UEs in the prior art cause interference to non-target UEs. The method, device, equipment and non-transitory readable storage medium are based on the same application concept. Since the principles of the method, device, equipment and non-transitory readable storage medium for solving the problem are similar, the implementation of the method, device, equipment and non-transitory readable storage medium can be mutually referred to, and the repeated parts will not be described.

[0184] Step 42: controlling RIS beamforming adjustment according to the measurement information.

[0185] In another implementation, the RIS measurement signals can also be associated with multiple RIS devices or multiple RIS beams in multiple areas, as long as it can support distinguishing which device or which RIS beam in which area the terminal measures the measurement information sent by; and / or the measurement information can include channel information corresponding to at least one of the RIS measurement signals, which is not limited herein.

[0186] ​The information transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application receives measurement information of at least two RIS measurement signals sent by at least one terminal; the RIS measurement signal is uniquely associated with one RIS device or one RIS beam in a first area; the measurement information includes: channel information corresponding to each RIS measurement signal, or channel information corresponding to at least one RIS measurement signal and interference information corresponding to at least one RIS measurement signal; and the RIS beamforming adjustment is controlled according to the measurement information.

[0187] In the method, the controlling the RIS beamforming adjustment according to the measurement information comprises: in a case where the measurement information comprises channel information corresponding to each of the RIS measurement signals, selecting at least one RIS device as a serving RIS device of the terminal or selecting at least one RIS beam as a serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information; wherein the at least one selected RIS beam belongs to different RIS devices respectively; sending a first notification to the terminal, and (optionally) sending a third notification to other RIS devices; wherein the other RIS devices are RIS devices corresponding to RIS measurement signals other than a first RIS measurement signal in the at least two RIS measurement signals, or are RIS devices to which RIS beams corresponding to the other RIS measurement signals belong, and the first RIS measurement signal is a RIS measurement signal corresponding to the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam; the first notification is used to indicate the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam; and the third notification is used to indicate adjustment of beamforming (related information). In this way, the selection of the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam can be accurately realized and notified to the terminal, and beamforming adjustment is performed on the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam to reduce coverage interference on the terminal. In the method, the selecting at least one RIS device as a serving RIS device of the terminal or selecting at least one RIS beam as a serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information comprises: selecting at least one RIS device with the best channel state as the serving RIS device of the terminal or selecting at least one RIS beam with the best channel state as the serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information, but the method is not limited thereto. In the method, the adjusting the beamforming comprises: switching the beamforming (such as adjusting an adjustment parameter or switching a beam), or turning off the RIS device, or converting the beam into an absorbing beam or a diffuse scattering state, but the method is not limited thereto. In another embodiment, the selecting at least one RIS device as a serving RIS device of the terminal or selecting at least one RIS beam as a serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information in a case where the measurement information comprises channel information corresponding to each of the RIS measurement signals can be implemented as: in a case where the measurement information comprises channel information corresponding to at least one of the RIS measurement signals, selecting at least one RIS device as a serving RIS device of the terminal or selecting at least one RIS beam as a serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information, but the method is not limited thereto.

[0188] In the embodiments of the present application, the control of the RIS beamforming adjustment according to the measurement information includes: (1) when the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam of the terminal (i.e., the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS device or the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS beam of the terminal) and the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam (i.e., the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS device or the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS beam), and the channel information meets the transmission requirement of the terminal, a third notification is sent to the RIS device to which the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam belongs according to the interference information; the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming (in this way, the phase shift matrix of the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam can be adjusted, and the interference of the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam on the target UE is reduced); (2) when the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS device of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS device, and the channel information does not meet the transmission requirement of the terminal, a third notification is sent to the serving RIS device according to the channel information and the interference information; the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming; or, a third notification is sent to the terminal according to the channel information and the interference information, and the third notification is used to instruct to replace the serving RIS device; (3) when the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS beam of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS beam, and the channel information does not meet the transmission requirement of the terminal, a third notification is sent to the RIS device to which the serving RIS beam belongs according to the channel information and the interference information; the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming; or, a third notification is sent to the terminal according to the channel information and the interference information, and the third notification is used to instruct to replace the serving RIS beam; (4) when the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-candidate serving RIS device or the non-candidate serving RIS beam, at least one RIS device is selected as the serving RIS device of the terminal from the candidate serving RIS device according to the channel information; or, at least one RIS beam is selected as the serving RIS beam of the terminal from the candidate serving RIS beam according to the channel information; a first notification is sent to the terminal, and a third notification is sent to other RIS devices;The other RIS devices are RIS devices corresponding to the other RIS measurement signals except the first RIS measurement signal, or the RIS devices to which the RIS beams corresponding to the other RIS measurement signals belong, and the first RIS measurement signal is a RIS measurement signal corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam; the first notification is used to indicate the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam; and the third notification is used to indicate the adjustment of the beamforming. In this way, the RIS beamforming adjustment can be accurately implemented for multiple cases, the service quality of the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam and the communication quality of the terminal are guaranteed, and the interference of the non-serving RIS device or the non-serving RIS beam on the target UE is reduced.

[0189] For the case that the terminal has multiple serving RIS devices, if some of the serving RIS devices do not meet the terminal demand and the non-serving RIS devices have RIS devices meeting the terminal demand, at least one RIS device meeting the UE service demand can be selected from the non-serving RIS devices as a candidate serving RIS device according to a predefined rule (such as the strongest interference signal) to replace the RIS device not meeting the terminal demand; correspondingly, the step of determining to adjust the serving RIS device according to the channel information and the interference information can include: in a case that it is determined according to the channel information that there is a serving RIS device not meeting the terminal demand, determining to adjust the serving RIS device, and taking the serving RIS device not meeting the terminal demand as a first RIS device; determining a candidate serving RIS device according to the interference information as a second RIS device, and determining to replace the first RIS device with the second RIS device as the serving RIS device of the terminal; and / or for the case that the terminal has multiple serving RIS devices, if some of the serving RIS devices do not meet the terminal demand and the non-serving RIS devices have no RIS device meeting the terminal demand, the RIS devices meeting the demand can be kept as the serving RIS, and the RIS devices not meeting the demand can be removed; correspondingly, the step of determining to adjust the serving RIS device according to the channel information and the interference information can include: in a case that it is determined according to the channel information that there is a serving RIS device not meeting the terminal demand, determining to adjust the serving RIS device, and taking the serving RIS device not meeting the terminal demand as a first RIS device; in a case that no candidate serving RIS device meeting the terminal demand is obtained according to the interference information, directly adjusting the first RIS device to a non-serving RIS device of the terminal, and maintaining the serving RIS device meeting the terminal demand to continue to provide services for the terminal, but the application is not limited thereto.

[0190] There can be multiple service RIS beams, and if some do not meet the terminal requirements, the RIS device can also be adjusted (e.g., the RIS device where the service RIS beam is located is used as the service RIS device, and the RIS device where the non-service RIS beam is located is used as the non-service RIS device) to perform corresponding processing. For details, see the description of the above "case where the terminal has multiple service RIS devices". Here, it will not be repeated. In addition, the RIS device can remain unchanged, and the service RIS beam under the same RIS device can be switched. The specific process is as follows:

[0191] For the case where the terminal has multiple service RIS beams, if some of the service RIS beams do not meet the terminal requirements, and the non-service RIS beam has an interference signal that meets the terminal requirements, at least one RIS beam with an interference signal that meets the UE service requirements can be selected from the non-service RIS beam as a candidate service RIS beam according to a predefined rule (e.g., the strongest interference signal) to replace the RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements. Correspondingly, "determining to adjust the service RIS beam according to the channel information and the interference information" can include: in the case where it is determined according to the channel information that there is a service RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements, determining to adjust the service RIS beam, and taking the service RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements as the first RIS beam; determining the candidate service RIS beam as the second RIS beam according to the interference information, and determining to replace the first RIS beam with the second RIS beam as the service RIS beam of the terminal;

[0192] And / or, for the case that there are multiple serving RIS beams for the terminal, if there are some serving RIS beams that do not meet the terminal requirements and none of the non-serving RIS beams that do not interfere with the terminal meet the terminal requirements (i.e., the received measurement signal strengths of the non-serving RIS beams do not all meet the terminal service requirements), then one of the other RIS beams under the RIS device corresponding to the serving RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements can be selected as a candidate RIS beam for measurement at a time until all the other RIS beams under the RIS device are measured, and the other RIS beam with the strongest signal strength (or the other RIS beam with a signal strength greater than a threshold) is selected as a serving RIS beam to replace the serving RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements. Correspondingly, "determining to adjust the serving RIS beam according to the channel information and the interference information" can include: in the case that it is determined according to the channel information that there is a serving RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements, determining to adjust the serving RIS beam, and taking the serving RIS beam that does not meet the terminal requirements as a first RIS beam; determining a candidate serving RIS beam from the other RIS beams under the RIS device to which the first RIS beam belongs, as a third RIS beam, and determining to replace the first RIS beam with the third RIS beam as the serving RIS beam of the terminal; wherein "determining a candidate serving RIS beam from the other RIS beams under the RIS device to which the first RIS beam belongs, as a third RIS beam" can include: obtaining the signal strengths corresponding to the other RIS beams under the RIS device to which the first RIS beam belongs, and determining the other RIS beam with the strongest signal strength as the candidate serving RIS beam, as the third RIS beam (or, determining the other RIS beam (which is the other RIS beam under the RIS device to which the first RIS beam belongs) with a signal strength greater than a threshold as the candidate serving RIS beam, as the third RIS beam).

[0193] The operation of determining the candidate serving RIS beam from the non-serving RIS beam or the other RIS beam under the RIS device to which the first RIS beam belongs can be applied to other cases, which is not limited here.

[0194] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the first notification is used to indicate the replacement of the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam, the RIS beam shaping adjustment according to the measurement information further includes: sending a second notification to the terminal, the second notification being used to indicate (the information of) the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam. In this way, the terminal can accurately measure the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam, to support the base station to select the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam.

[0195] Further, the information transmission method described above further includes: sending first base station configuration information and / or second base station configuration information to the terminal, the first base station configuration information being used to indicate first transmission parameters of the RIS measurement signal, and the second base station configuration information being used to indicate reporting parameters of the measurement information; wherein the first transmission parameters include at least one of a receiving occasion and a transmission mode; the reporting parameters include at least one of a reporting occasion and a reporting mode; and / or sending third base station configuration information to the RIS device, the third base station configuration information being used to indicate second transmission parameters of the RIS measurement signal; wherein the second transmission parameters include at least one of a sending occasion and a transmission mode. In this way, the receiving measurement of the RIS measurement signal and / or the reporting of the measurement information and / or the sending of the RIS measurement signal based on network configuration can be supported.

[0196] The embodiments of the present application also provide an information transmission method, which is applied to a RIS device, as shown in the following. Figure 5

[0200] The information transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application can support the terminal to measure the RIS measurement signal and obtain the measurement information to send to the base station, and further support the base station to adjust the beamforming of the whole or part of the RIS beams based on the measurement information of the RIS measurement signal, so as to avoid the interference caused by the coverage of the non-target UE, and well solve the problem that the RIS causes interference to the non-target UE in the multiple RIS and multiple UE scenario in the prior art.

[0201] ​Further, the information transmission method described above further includes: receiving a third notification sent by the base station; the third notification is used to indicate adjustment of beamforming; and adjusting the shaping parameter corresponding to the RIS device or the shaping parameter corresponding to the RIS beam of the RIS device according to the third notification. In this way, interference caused by coverage to non-target terminals can be avoided as much as possible.

[0202] In the embodiments of the present application, the information transmission method described above further includes: forwarding information sent by at least one base station according to the adjusted shaping parameter. In this way, the normal implementation of the RIS device function can be supported, and specifically, the information and / or signal sent by the base station can be forwarded using the adjusted beamforming, which is not limited herein.

[0203] The sending of the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS device or the RIS beam of the RIS device includes: sending the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS device or the RIS beam of the RIS device according to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the third base station configuration information or the third predefined information; and the second transmission parameter includes at least one of the transmission occasion and the transmission mode.

[0204] In this way, the sending of the RIS measurement signal based on network configuration or predefinition can be implemented. The transmission occasion can include the time of sending the RIS measurement signal; and / or the transmission mode can include periodicity, semi-periodicity, or aperiodicity, and the like, which is not limited herein.

[0205] It is stated herein that the related content of the terminal side, the base station side, and the RIS device side can be mutually referred to, and the repeated parts will not be described herein.

[0206] The information transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application is described below.

[0207] To solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, which can be specifically implemented as a multi-RIS multi-UE adjustment scheme. A measurement signal is periodically transmitted by a RIS, a UE performs measurement and reports a base station, and the base station determines the phase shift matrix (i.e., beamforming) of the RIS according to the measurement signal reported by the UE, so as to control (e.g., adjust) the coverage range or coverage direction of the RIS, thereby avoiding interference between different UEs or cells. The present scheme mainly involves: each RIS transmits a measurement signal at a RIS granularity or a beam granularity (corresponding to the above-mentioned RIS device or the RIS beam of the above-mentioned RIS device corresponding to the RIS measurement signal); the UE obtains channel information, or channel information and interference information, by measuring the signal, and reports the base station (corresponding to the above-mentioned measuring the at least two intelligent metasurface RIS measurement signals to obtain measurement information; the measurement information includes: channel information corresponding to each RIS measurement signal, or channel information corresponding to at least one RIS measurement signal and interference information corresponding to at least one RIS measurement signal; and sending the measurement information to the base station). The base station determines the phase shift matrix (i.e., beamforming) of the RIS according to the information reported by at least one UE, adjusts the coverage range and / or coverage direction of the RIS by adjusting the phase shift matrix of the RIS, thereby avoiding interference between different UEs or cells; corresponding to the above-mentioned receiving the measurement information sent by at least one terminal for at least two RIS measurement signals; and controlling the RIS beamforming adjustment according to the measurement information.

[0208] In the present scheme, it is assumed that the RIS can transmit a measurement signal by itself or a controller, such as the following possible schemes:

[0209] 1. Each RIS has a controller, and the RIS controller can transmit a measurement signal. The measurement signal is uniquely associated with a RIS or a RIS beam in a specific area (e.g., a cell or at least two adjacent cells); corresponding to the above-mentioned RIS measurement signal being uniquely associated with the above-mentioned RIS device or a RIS beam in a first area.

[0210] (1) For the signal transmitted by the RIS controller, there are two possibilities: one is direct emission, and the other is forwarding through the RIS. The former needs to consider the coverage direction or range of the controller transmitting signal, which needs to be basically consistent with the coverage direction or range of the RIS forwarding signal; and the subsequent needs to design the deployment position of the controller to avoid affecting the reception or forwarding of the base station signal.

[0211] 2. Alternatively, the RIS itself may have a simple signal transmission function, capable of sending measurement signals, such as Reconfigurable Distributed Antennas and Reflecting Surfaces (RDARS). The RSARS can be connected to the RRU (Remote Radio Unit) via a control circuit switch. When the RSARS is connected to the RRU, it has a signal transmission function.

[0212] 3. Another approach is for the RIS to modulate the signal it forwards when relaying signals from the base station, for example, by adding a specific phase shift. This can be understood as the RIS adding a phase shift to the overall incident signal, equivalent to BPSK: the incident signal is used as the fundamental wave, and it is modulated, with the modulation carrying additional information as a measurement signal associated with the RIS or the RIS beam.

[0213] The transmission of measurement signals and the reporting of measurement information by the UE can be handled according to the following rules:

[0214] 1. The measurement signal transmitted by the RIS (e.g., a single-tone signal, a specific sequence (such as a gold code of a certain length)) is uniquely associated with the RIS within a certain range or specific area (e.g., a cell or two or three adjacent cells); correspondingly, the RIS measurement signal is uniquely associated with a RIS device or a RIS beam within the first area. For example, the measurement signal sequence transmitted by RIS1 is "10001001", the measurement signal sequence transmitted by RIS2 is "10001011", and so on.

[0215] 2. The timing of RIS signal transmission is configured by the base station or determined according to predefined rules. Corresponding to the second transmission parameters of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the third base station configuration information or the third predefined information, the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS device or the RIS beam of the RIS device is transmitted. The second transmission parameters include at least one of transmission timing and transmission mode. The predefined rules may include periodic, semi-periodic, and aperiodic transmission of measurement signals, with the transmission time fixed at the nth slot (time slot) of a certain frame. For example, periodic transmission means periodically transmitting in the nth slot of multiple frames.

[0216] 3、The base station and the UE know (the network side (protocol) is pre-defined) the occasion of RIS sending the measurement signal; wherein, the occasion of RIS sending the measurement signal can also be notified to the UE by the base station (i.e. the base station configuration); corresponding to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the first base station configuration information or the first predefined information, at least two RIS measurement signals are received and measured to obtain measurement information; wherein, the first transmission parameter includes at least one of the receiving occasion and the transmission mode.

[0217] 4、The rule of UE reporting measurement information: UE reporting time, reporting mode, etc. (reporting parameter) are configured by the base station or predefined; corresponding to the reporting parameter indicated according to the second base station configuration information or the second predefined information, the base station sends the measurement information; wherein, the reporting parameter includes at least one of the reporting occasion and the reporting mode.

[0218] (1) The occasion of UE reporting measurement information can be configured by the base station or determined according to the predefinition, for example, UE reports on the next slot after receiving the measurement signal.

[0219] (2) The way of UE reporting measurement information can be configured by the base station or determined according to the predefinition, for example, the UE sorts according to the channel state from good to bad according to the base station configuration, and reports the corresponding RIS index (the index is arranged according to the above-mentioned sorting and reported); or, the UE reports the channel information of the service RIS and the interference information of the non-service RIS according to the predefined rule.

[0220] Wherein, the service RIS means the RIS currently providing service (such as forwarding the signal sent by the base station to the UE) for the UE; the non-service RIS means the RIS not providing service for the UE (such as forwarding the signal sent by the base station to other UEs).

[0221] The following is an example of the operation involved in this scheme from the RIS, UE and base station.

[0222] RIS side:

[0223] 1、RIS sends measurement signal according to base station configuration or predefined rule; corresponding to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the third base station configuration information or the third predefined information, the RIS device or the RIS beam corresponding to the RIS device sends the RIS measurement signal; wherein, the second transmission parameter includes at least one of the sending occasion and the transmission mode;

[0224] 2. The RIS adjusts the phase shift matrix according to the base station configuration to forward the signal sent by the base station; corresponds to the third notification sent by the receiving base station; the third notification is used to indicate the adjustment of the beamforming; according to the third notification, the adjustment of the corresponding beamforming parameter of the RIS device or the RIS beam of the RIS device; according to the adjusted beamforming parameter, at least one base station sends information. Wherein, "RIS adjusts the phase shift matrix according to the base station configuration to forward the signal sent by the base station", can include: RIS adjusts the phase shift matrix according to the time information (i.e. transmission opportunity) in the base station configuration and forwards the signal sent by the base station; or, RIS adjusts the phase shift matrix according to the base station configuration and the pre-defined time information (i.e. pre-defined transmission opportunity) and forwards the signal sent by the base station, but not limited to this.

[0225] UE side:

[0226] Step 0: (optional) UE receives base station configuration information or notification information. For example: in the scenario of switching RIS determined by the base station according to the measurement information reported by the UE, the base station can notify the UE of the candidate RIS; subsequently, the UE can measure the candidate RIS after receiving the base station notification, and obtain the channel information of the candidate RIS.

[0227] Step 1: UE receives RIS measurement signal according to base station configuration or pre-defined rule at RIS measurement signal receiving opportunity to measure, corresponding to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the first base station configuration information or the first pre-defined information, at least two RIS measurement signals are received and measured to obtain measurement information; wherein, the first transmission parameter includes at least one of the receiving opportunity and the transmission mode;

[0228] Specifically, the measurement behavior can include the following two kinds:

[0229] 1) In the case that the UE does not determine the serving RIS, measure all received RIS measurement signals to obtain channel information (such as at least one of RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power), AOA (Azimuth of Arrival), ZOA (Zenith angle Of Arrival), RI (Rank Indicator), CSI (Channel State Information) and other information); corresponding to the above in the case that the terminal's serving RIS device or serving RIS beam is not determined, at least two RIS measurement signals are measured to obtain the channel information corresponding to each RIS measurement signal.

[0230] 2) In the case that UE determines serving RIS, the UE performs at least one of the following operations:

[0231] a) The UE measures the measurement signals of the serving RIS to obtain channel information (e.g., at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.) and measures the measurement signals of the non-serving RIS to obtain interference information (e.g., at least one of power, power ratio to the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.). In the case that the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam corresponding to the above-mentioned device or beam has been determined at the terminal, the UE measures at least two RIS measurement signals to obtain the channel information corresponding to the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the above-mentioned serving RIS device or serving RIS beam and the interference information corresponding to the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the non-serving RIS device or non-serving RIS beam.

[0232] b) The UE measures the measurement signals of the candidate (serving) RIS to obtain candidate RIS channel information and measures the measurement signals of the non-candidate (serving) RIS to obtain interference information. In the case that the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam corresponding to the above-mentioned device or beam has been determined at the terminal, the UE measures at least two RIS measurement signals to obtain the channel information corresponding to the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the above-mentioned candidate serving RIS device or candidate serving RIS beam and the interference information corresponding to the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the non-candidate serving RIS device or non-candidate serving RIS beam.

[0233] Step 2: The UE reports the measurement information to the base station according to the base station configuration or the pre-defined rule. In the case that the UE reports the measurement information according to the second base station configuration information or the second pre-defined information, the UE sends the measurement information to the base station. In the case of the two situations shown in Step 1, the information reported by the UE can include the following two possibilities:

[0234] 1) The UE reports the measurement information of all the received RIS measurement signals (i.e., the measurement results of multiple RIS) and the RIS index according to the base station configuration or the pre-defined rule, as shown in the following table.

[0235] RIS index Measurement information 1 (corresponding to RIS1) RSRP1 2 (corresponding to RIS2) RSRP2 3 (corresponding to RIS3) RSRP3

[0236] 2) The UE reports the channel information (e.g., at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.) of the serving RIS and the interference information (e.g., at least one of power, power ratio to the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.) of the non-serving RIS to the UE according to the base station configuration or the pre-defined rule.

[0237] Step3: (optional) UE receives the notification sent by the base station. For example, the base station indicates the serving RIS or the serving RIS beam, or the base station indicates to switch the serving RIS or the serving RIS beam, which corresponds to the first notification sent by the base station. The first notification is used to indicate the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam, or to indicate to replace the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam (subsequent operations can be performed according to the first notification; for example, using the notified RIS or beam to perform data transmission with the base station, and using the notified RIS as the serving RIS or the notified RIS beam as the serving beam for subsequent measurement in the subsequent measurement process).

[0238] For another example, in the case of further measurement of the candidate RIS or beam, the base station sends a notification to the UE and performs related measurement to assist the base station in determining the final serving RIS or serving beam (i.e., the serving RIS beam). The second notification sent by the base station is used to indicate the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam. According to the second notification, at least two RIS measurement signals are measured to obtain measurement information. The at least two RIS measurement signals are the RIS measurement signals corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam.

[0239] Base station side:

[0240] Step0 (optional): The base station configures the RIS and the UE with the RIS measurement signal transmission mode (such as periodic or aperiodic, etc.), transmission time, etc. The base station can also configure the UE with the reporting rule of the measurement information (such as reporting time, format, etc.). Corresponding to the above sending of the first base station configuration information and / or the second base station configuration information to the terminal, the first base station configuration information is used to indicate the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal, and the second base station configuration information is used to indicate the reporting parameter of the measurement information. The first transmission parameter includes at least one of the receiving time and the transmission mode. The reporting parameter includes at least one of the reporting time and the reporting mode. And / or, the third base station configuration information is sent to the RIS device, and the third base station configuration information is used to indicate the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal. The second transmission parameter includes at least one of the transmission time and the transmission mode.

[0241] Of course, this scheme can also not perform Step0, and the RIS and the UE operate according to the pre-defined rule, which is not limited here.

[0242] Step1: The base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and has the following two operations:

[0243] 1) For the case that UE does not determine the serving RIS, the measurement information reported by UE is the measurement information of all RIS measurement signals received by UE, and the serving RIS of UE can be determined according to the information according to the pre-defined rule.

[0244] a) A possible method for selecting a serving RIS: according to the information reported by UE, one or more RISs with the best channel state are selected as the serving RIS, for example, the RSRP of multiple RISs reported by UE, and one or more with the largest RSRP are selected as the serving RIS; corresponding to the above case where the measurement information includes channel information corresponding to each RIS measurement signal, at least one RIS device is selected as the serving RIS device of the terminal or at least one RIS beam is selected as the serving RIS beam of the terminal according to the channel information; wherein the at least one selected RIS beam belongs to different RIS devices respectively.

[0245] 2) For the case that UE determines the serving RIS, the measurement information reported by UE is the channel information of UE's serving RIS and the interference information of non-serving RIS, and two cases are generated according to the information:

[0246] a) The channel information of the serving RIS meets the signal transmission requirements for serving the target UE, and the phase shift matrix of the non-serving RIS is adjusted according to the interference information of the non-serving RIS to reduce the interference of the non-serving RIS to the target UE. This case a) corresponds to the case where the channel information of the terminal's serving RIS device or serving RIS beam and the interference information of the non-serving RIS device or non-serving RIS beam are included in the measurement information, and the channel information meets the transmission requirements of the terminal, and a third notification is sent to the RIS device to which the non-serving RIS device or non-serving RIS beam belongs according to the interference information; the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming.

[0247] Wherein, whether it meets the signal transmission requirements for serving the target UE can be determined according to the pre-defined rule and the UE requirements, for example, in the URLLC (Ultra-reliable and Low Latency Communications) scenario, the requirement of UE is high reliability and low latency, then the channel information needs to meet the latency and reliability requirements, for example, the reliability is higher than the pre-defined threshold or the latency is lower than the pre-defined threshold, then it is considered to meet the requirements.

[0248] b) The channel information of the serving RIS does not meet the signal transmission requirements for serving the target UE, and the serving RIS is adjusted or switched in combination with the interference information of the non-serving RIS, and the UE is notified to measure the candidate RIS; which can correspond to at least one of the following:

[0249] In a case where the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS device of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS device, and the channel information does not meet the transmission requirement of the terminal, a serving RIS device is determined according to the channel information and the interference information, and a third notification is sent to the serving RIS device, where the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming; or a serving RIS device is replaced according to the channel information and the interference information, and a first notification is sent to the terminal, where the first notification is used to instruct to replace the serving RIS device.

[0250] In a case where the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the serving RIS beam of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-serving RIS beam, and the channel information does not meet the transmission requirement of the terminal, a serving RIS beam is determined according to the channel information and the interference information, and a third notification is sent to the RIS device to which the serving RIS beam belongs, where the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming; or a serving RIS beam is replaced according to the channel information and the interference information, and a first notification is sent to the terminal, where the first notification is used to instruct to replace the serving RIS beam.

[0251] In a case where the measurement information includes the channel information corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam of the terminal and the interference information corresponding to the non-candidate serving RIS device or the non-candidate serving RIS beam, at least one RIS device is selected as the serving RIS device of the terminal from the candidate serving RIS device according to the channel information; or at least one RIS beam is selected as the serving RIS beam of the terminal from the candidate serving RIS beam according to the channel information; a first notification is sent to the terminal, and a third notification is sent to other RIS device, where the other RIS device is the RIS device corresponding to the other RIS measurement signal except the first RIS measurement signal in the at least two RIS measurement signals, or the RIS device to which the RIS beam corresponding to the other RIS measurement signal belongs, the first RIS measurement signal is the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the candidate serving RIS device or the candidate serving RIS beam; the first notification is used to instruct the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam; and the third notification is used to instruct to adjust the beamforming.

[0252] Step 2: The base station sends a configuration signaling notification to the UE of the selected serving RIS (for operation 1 in Step 1) or candidate RIS (for operation 2 in Step 1, b); in case a) of operation 2), the base station may not notify the UE. The former in Step 2 can correspond to sending a first notification to the terminal and a third notification to other RIS devices. The other RIS devices are the RIS devices corresponding to the RIS measurement signals other than the first RIS measurement signal among the at least two RIS measurement signals, or the RIS devices to which the RIS beam corresponding to the other RIS measurement signal belongs. The first RIS measurement signal is the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the serving RIS device or the serving RIS beam. The first notification is used to indicate the serving RIS device or serving RIS beam. The third notification is used to indicate beamforming adjustment. The latter in Step 2 can correspond to sending a second notification to the terminal, which is used to indicate candidate serving RIS devices or candidate serving RIS beams.

[0253] The following provides specific examples of the solutions provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0254] Example 1: The process of determining the UE serving RIS (i.e., the serving RIS device);

[0255] like Figure 2 The multi-RIS multi-UE system shown assumes that four RISs are deployed in three neighboring cells, and the measurement signals of the four RISs are unique to each RIS within the three cells, as shown in the table below:

[0256] Table 1. Correlation between Measurement Signals and RIS Index

[0257] Cell ID RIS index RIS measurement signal 1 RIS1 0001 2 RIS2 0010 3 RIS3 0100 1、2、3 RIS4 1000

[0258] In the table, RIS4 can be understood as being located on the edge of the three cells, and the base stations of the three cells can cover this RIS.

[0259] In this example, assuming the UE performs measurements according to the base station configuration, the specific process is as follows:

[0260] Step1: The base station configures the RIS and the UE with the RIS measurement signal transmission mode (e.g., periodic transmission), transmission timing or reception timing (e.g., the second slot of each frame), and configures the UE with the reporting rule of the measurement information (e.g., reporting the measurement information in the next slot after receiving the RIS measurement information, and reporting in the form of RIS index plus RSRP). This step can correspond to sending the terminal the first base station configuration information and / or the second base station configuration information, the first base station configuration information being used to indicate the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal, and the second base station configuration information being used to indicate the reporting parameter of the measurement information; wherein the first transmission parameter includes at least one of the reception timing and the transmission mode; the reporting parameter includes at least one of the reporting timing and the reporting mode; and / or, sending the RIS device the third base station configuration information, the third base station configuration information being used to indicate the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal; wherein the second transmission parameter includes at least one of the transmission timing and the transmission mode.

[0261] Step2: The RIS receives the configuration information from the base station, and transmits the measurement signal at the given timing (i.e., transmission timing) according to the configuration information. This step can correspond to transmitting the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS device according to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the third base station configuration information.

[0262] Step3: The UE receives the configuration information from the base station, and receives and measures at the RIS measurement signal reception timing according to the configuration information, to obtain the channel information of the RIS. This step can correspond to receiving and measuring at least two RIS measurement signals according to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the first base station configuration information, to obtain the measurement information.

[0263] Suppose the UE receives the measurement signals of two RISs and measures them to obtain the RSRP of the two RISs, as shown in the following table:

[0264] Table 2: UE reports the information to the base station

[0265] RIS index Measurement information 1 RSRP1 4 RSRP2 (RSRP1 > RSRP2)

[0266] Step4: The UE reports the measurement information shown in Table 2 and the RIS index to the base station (which can correspond to sending the measurement information to the base station according to the reporting parameter indicated by the second base station configuration information), and one reporting mode is shown as follows:

[0267] RIS1 index RSRP1 RIS4 index RSRP2

[0268] Step5: The base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and determines the serving RIS according to the measurement information.

[0269] Here, the base station receives the information reported by multiple UEs. Assuming that the base station receives the measurement information reported by two UEs, the information reported by UE1 is shown in the above table (i.e., the table in Step 4), and the information reported by UE2 is shown in the following table.

[0270] Table 3 Information reported by UE2 to the base station

[0271] RIS index Measurement information 2 RSRP3 4 RSRP4 (RSRP3 < RSRP4)

[0272] When only one RIS needs to be selected as the serving RIS for the two UEs, the base station selects RIS1 as the serving RIS for UE1 and RIS4 as the serving RIS for UE2 according to the information reported by the two UEs; which corresponds to the above selection of at least one RIS device as the serving RIS device of the terminal.

[0273] When the cooperative RIS needs to be selected according to the reporting situation, the base station comprehensively considers the information reported by the two UEs, for example, sorts the RSRP values in the above two tables. Assuming that RSRP1>RSRP2 and RSRP2<RSRP3<RSRP4, RSRP2 does not meet the signal transmission requirements of UE1, the base station will select RIS1 as the serving RIS for UE1 and RIS2 and RIS4 as the cooperative TRP (Transmission Reception Point, transmission reception point) for UE2, and adjust the phase shift matrix of RIS4 (which can correspond to the above third notification indicating to adjust the beamforming) so that its coverage range or coverage direction covers UE2 and avoids radiating to UE1, causing interference to UE1.

[0274] Embodiment 2: Process of coordinating RIS to interfere with non-target UE; still assuming that four RISs are deployed in three adjacent cells, and the measurement signals of the four RISs are unique in the three cells, as shown in Table 1:

[0275] Table 1 Association table of measurement signal and RIS index

[0276] Cell ID RIS index RIS measurement signal 1 RIS1 0001 2 RIS2 0010 3 RIS3 0100 1、2、3 RIS4 1000

[0277] In this example, it is assumed that the UE measures according to a predefined rule, the RIS transmits measurement signals according to a predefined rule, and the base station has informed the UE of the selected serving RIS: UE1 knows that its serving RIS is RIS1, and UE2 knows that its serving RIS is RIS2; the specific process of this example can be as follows:

[0278] Step 1: The RIS transmits measurement signals at a predefined time according to a predefined rule. This step can correspond to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the third predefined information, and the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS device is transmitted.

[0279] Step2: UE receives the RIS measurement signal according to the pre-defined rule at the RIS measurement signal receiving occasion, measures the RIS measurement signal to obtain the channel information (at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.), and measures the non-serving RIS measurement signal to obtain the interference information (at least one of power, power ratio with the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.). This step can correspond to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the first pre-defined information, and the at least two RIS measurement signals are received and measured to obtain the measurement information.

[0280] Step3: UE reports the measurement information to the base station according to the pre-defined rule, including the channel information of the serving RIS (at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.) and the interference information of the non-serving RIS to the UE (at least one of power, power ratio with the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.). This step can correspond to the reporting parameter indicated according to the second pre-defined information, and the above measurement information is sent to the base station.

[0281] Step4: The base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and coordinates the interference of the non-serving RIS according to the measurement information; corresponding to the above, the RIS beamforming adjustment is controlled according to the measurement information. The specific process can be as follows:

[0282] The base station will receive the information reported by multiple UEs. Assuming that the base station receives the reporting information of 2 UEs, as shown in the following table:

[0283] Table 4: UE reporting information list

[0284]

[0285] When the channel information RSRP1 of RIS1 meets a predefined threshold (such as a UE1 requirement threshold) and the channel information RSRP4 of RIS2 meets a predefined threshold (such as a UE2 requirement threshold), the base station determines that there is no need to adjust (and no need to switch) the service RIS of the two UEs. Optionally, in the case that the interference between the two UEs is large, the base station can adjust the beamforming (phase shift matrix) of RIS2 to cover UE2 and avoid radiating to UE1 according to the information reported by the two UEs: (1) adjusting the beamforming of RIS2 to cover UE2 and avoid radiating to UE1; (2) adjusting the beamforming of RIS3 to avoid radiating to UE1; adjusting the beamforming of RIS4 to avoid radiating to UE2; or when there is no other user to be served, turning off RIS3 and RIS4 (or turning RIS3 and RIS4 into absorbing beams or diffuse scattering state, which does not affect the surrounding UEs); accordingly, the adjustment of the related RIS can be obtained. Subsequently, the adjustment can be notified to the RIS (or the controller of the RIS), and in the case that the RIS is deployed on the base station, the RIS can not be additionally notified; in the case that the service RIS is not switched and adjusted, the UE can not be notified.

[0286] When the base station determines that an assisting RIS can be added for UE1 according to the channel information and interference information reported by the UE (for example, RSRP2 is close to the value of RSRP1, or even greater than RSRP1), the beamforming (phase shift matrix) of RIS2 can be adjusted to cover UE1 and UE2 at the same time, and UE1 and UE2 can be simultaneously served; and UE1 can be notified that the candidate RIS is RIS1 and RIS2 (which can correspond to the second notification sent to the terminal, and the second notification is used to indicate the candidate service RIS device).

[0287] Step 5: When the base station issues a notification, UE1 receives the notification issued by the base station, measures RIS1 and RIS2 to obtain channel information, and measures other RIS (if any) to obtain interference information, and reports the base station; which can correspond to the above-mentioned measurement of at least two RIS measurement signals to obtain measurement information according to the second notification; the at least two RIS measurement signals are the RIS measurement signals corresponding to the above-mentioned candidate service RIS device; and the base station sends the measurement information.

[0288] Step 6: The base station receives the information reported by UE1; according to the reported information of UE1, it is determined that the channel information of the two RISs meets the predefined requirement, and the service RIS for UE is selected as RIS1 and RIS2; if one of them does not meet the requirement, the RIS that meets the requirement is selected as the service RIS; if neither of them meets the requirement, a candidate RIS is selected from other RIS, and UE1 is notified to measure again (i.e. loop step4~step6).

[0289] Step 7: The base station informs UE1 of the index of the RIS serving it; this can correspond to the above-mentioned sending of the first notification to the terminal.

[0290] Embodiment 3: Process for determining the UE serving beam (i.e. the serving RIS beam);

[0291] Still assuming that 4 RISs are deployed in the 3 adjacent cells, each RIS has 3 beams, and the 4 RISs have a total of 12 beams. The measurement signals of the RISs are uniquely associated with the RIS beams in the 3 cells, as shown in the following table:

[0292] Table 5: RIS beam and measurement signal association table

[0293]

[0294] RIS 4 in the table can be understood as being at the edge of the three cells, and the base stations of the three cells can all cover the RIS.

[0295] In this example, it is assumed that the UE measures according to the base station configuration, and the specific process of this example can be as follows:

[0296] Step 1: The base station configures the RIS and the UE with the RIS measurement signal sending mode (e.g. periodic sending), sending time or receiving time (e.g. the 2nd slot of each frame), and configures the UE with the reporting rule for the measurement information (e.g. reporting the measurement information in the next slot after receiving the RIS measurement information, and reporting in the form of RIS index plus CSI). This step can correspond to the above-mentioned sending of the first base station configuration information and / or the second base station configuration information to the terminal, the first base station configuration information being used to indicate the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal, and the second base station configuration information being used to indicate the reporting parameter of the above-mentioned measurement information; wherein the first transmission parameter includes at least one of the receiving time and the transmission mode; the reporting parameter includes at least one of the reporting time and the reporting mode; and / or, sending the third base station configuration information to the RIS device, the third base station configuration information being used to indicate the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal; wherein the second transmission parameter includes at least one of the sending time and the transmission mode.

[0297] Step 2: The RIS receives the configuration information from the base station, and sends the measurement signal at the given time (i.e. the sending time) according to the configuration information. This step can correspond to the above-mentioned sending of the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS beam of the RIS device according to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated by the third base station configuration information.

[0298] Step3: UE receives the configuration information of the base station, receives and measures according to the configuration information at the RIS measurement signal receiving opportunity, and obtains the channel information corresponding to the RIS beam. This step can correspond to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the first base station configuration information, and the measurement information is obtained by receiving and measuring at least two RIS measurement signals.

[0299] Assuming that the UE receives the measurement signals of the two RIS beams and measures them to obtain the channel information CSI of the two RIS beams, as shown in the following table:

[0300] Table 6: UE1 reports the information of the base station

[0301] RIS beam index Measurement information RIS1 BF1 CSI1 RIS4 BF2 CSI2 (CSI1 is better than CSI2)

[0302] Step4: UE reports the measurement information and RIS beam index shown in the above table 6 to the base station, and one reporting method is as follows:

[0303] RIS1 BF1 index CSI1 RIS4 BF2 index CSI2

[0304] Step5: The base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and determines the service RIS beam according to the measurement information.

[0305] Here, the base station will receive the information reported by multiple UEs, assuming that the base station receives the measurement information reported by two UEs, the information reported by UE1 is shown in the above table (i.e. the table in Step4), and the information reported by UE2 is shown in the following table.

[0306] Table 7: UE2 reports the information of the base station

[0307] RIS beam index Measurement information RIS2 BF3 CSI3 RIS4 BF2 CSI4 (CSI4 is better than CSI3)

[0308] When only one RIS beam needs to be selected as the service RIS beam for the two UEs, the base station selects RIS1 BF1 as the service RIS beam for UE1 and RIS4 BF2 as the service RIS beam for UE2 according to the information reported by the two UEs; corresponding to the above selecting at least one RIS beam as the service RIS beam of the terminal.

[0309] When it is necessary to select a cooperative RIS according to the reporting situation, the base station will comprehensively consider the information reported by the two UEs, such as sorting the CSIs in the above two tables, assuming that CSI1>CSI2and CSI2<CSI3<CSI4(“>” means better), CSI2does not meet the needs of UE1signal transmission, then the base station will select RIS1BF1as the service RIS beam for UE1, select RIS2BF3and RIS4BF2as the cooperative beams of UE2, and adjust the phase shift matrix (i.e. beamforming) of RIS4so that its coverage or coverage direction covers UE2, avoiding radiation to UE1, causing interference to UE1.

[0310] Embodiment 4: Process of coordinating RIS beams to interfere with non-target UEs

[0311] According to embodiment 3, it is still assumed that 4 RISs are deployed in the vicinity of 3 cells, each RIS has 3 beams, and 4 RISs have 12 beams in total. The measurement signals of the RISs are uniquely associated with the RIS beams in the 3 cells, as shown in Table 5:

[0312] Table 5: RIS beam and measurement signal association table

[0313]

[0314] RIS4 in the table can be understood as being at the edge of the three cells, and the base stations of the three cells can cover the RIS.

[0315] In this example, it is assumed that the UE measures according to the pre-defined rule, the RIS sends the measurement signal according to the pre-defined rule, and the base station has informed the UE of the selected service RIS beam: UE1knows that its service RIS beam is RIS1BF1, and UE2knows that its service RIS is RIS2BF2; The specific process of this example can be as follows:

[0316] Step 1: The RIS sends the measurement signal at the pre-defined time according to the pre-defined rule. This step can correspond to the second transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the third pre-defined information, and the RIS measurement signal corresponding to the RIS beam of the RIS device is sent.

[0317] Step2: UE receives RIS measurement signals according to the pre-defined rule at the RIS measurement signal receiving occasion, measures the RIS measurement signals to obtain channel information (at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.), and measures the non-serving RIS beam measurement signals to obtain interference information (at least one of power, power ratio with the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.). This step can correspond to the first transmission parameter of the RIS measurement signal indicated according to the first pre-defined information, and the measurement information is obtained by receiving and measuring at least two RIS measurement signals.

[0318] Step3: UE reports the measurement information to the base station according to the pre-defined rule, including the channel information of the serving RIS beam (at least one of RSRP, AOA, ZOA, RI, CSI, etc.) and the interference information of the non-serving RIS beam to the UE (at least one of power, power ratio with the serving RIS measurement signal, RSRP, etc.). This step can correspond to the reporting parameter indicated according to the second pre-defined information, and the measurement information is sent to the base station.

[0319] Step4: The base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and coordinates the interference of the RIS beam according to the measurement information; corresponding to the above-mentioned control of the RIS beam according to the measurement information, the specific process can be as follows:

[0320] The base station will receive the information reported by multiple UEs, assuming that the base station receives the reporting information of 2 UEs, as shown in the following table:

[0321] Table 6: UE reporting information list

[0322]

[0323] When the channel information RSRP1 of RIS1 BF1 meets a predefined threshold (such as a UE1 requirement threshold), and the channel information RSRP4 of RIS2 BF2 meets a predefined threshold (such as a UE2 requirement threshold), the base station determines that there is no need to adjust (and no need to switch) the service RIS beams of the two UEs. Optionally, in the case of large interference between the two UEs, the base station can adjust the beamforming (phase shift matrix) of RIS2 to cover UE2 and avoid radiating to UE1 according to the information reported by the two UEs: (1) adjusting the beamforming of RIS2 to cover UE2 and avoid radiating to UE1; (2) adjusting the beamforming of RIS3 to avoid radiating to UE1; adjusting the beamforming of RIS4 to avoid radiating to UE2; or when there is no other user to be served, turning off RIS3 and RIS4 (or turning RIS3 and RIS4 into absorbing beams or diffuse scattering state, which does not affect the surrounding UEs); accordingly, the adjustment of the related RIS beams can be obtained. Subsequently, the adjustment can be notified to the RIS (or the controller of the RIS), and in the case of RIS deployed on the base station or RIS connected to the base station through a cable, the RIS can not be additionally notified; in the case of no switching and no adjustment of the service RIS beam, the UE can not be notified.

[0324] When the base station determines that a cooperative RIS beam can be added for UE1 according to the channel information and interference information reported by the UE (for example, RSRP2 is close to the value of RSRP1, or even greater than RSRP1), the beamforming (phase shift matrix) of RIS2 can be adjusted to cover UE1 and UE2 at the same time, and RIS2 BF2 is used to simultaneously serve UE1 and UE2; and UE1 is notified that the candidate RIS beam is RIS1 BF1 and RIS2 BF2 (which can correspond to the second notification sent to the terminal, which is used to indicate the candidate service RIS beam). Wherein, "adjusting the beamforming of RIS2" can include switching the beam or adjusting the beam (RIS2 BF2), which is not limited here; one case of "switching the beam" is that there is another beam outside RIS2 BF2 that can cover UE1 and UE2 at the same time in the beam reported by the UE, similar to the information of "RIS2 BF2" in Table 6, which will not be described here (not shown in Table 6), and the corresponding other beam under RIS2 can be used to simultaneously serve UE1 and UE2; and UE1 is notified that the candidate RIS beam is RIS1 BF1 and the other beam.

[0325] Step5: UE1 receives the notification from the base station, measures RIS1 BF1 and RIS2 BF2 to obtain channel information, measures other RIS beams (if any are received) to obtain interference information, and reports to the base station; which can correspond to the above-mentioned second notification, measuring at least two RIS measurement signals to obtain measurement information; the at least two RIS measurement signals are the RIS measurement signals corresponding to the candidate service RIS beam pairs; and sending the measurement information to the base station.

[0326] Step6: The base station receives the information reported by UE1; according to the reported information of UE1, it is determined that the channel information of the two RIS beams satisfies the pre-defined requirement, and the service RIS beam for UE is selected as RIS1 BF1 and RIS2 BF2; if one of them does not satisfy, the RIS beam that satisfies is selected as the service RIS beam; if neither of them satisfies, a candidate RIS beam is selected from other RIS beams, and UE1 is notified again to measure (i.e. cycle step4~step6).

[0327] Step7: The base station notifies UE1 of the beam index of its service RIS beam; which can correspond to the above-mentioned sending the first notification to the terminal.

[0328] In this description, the related contents of each embodiment can be referred to each other, and the repeated parts will not be repeated. In addition, the pre-defined rules related to RIS and the pre-defined rules related to UE can contain at least part of the same content, but are not limited thereto.

[0329] From the above, the present scheme involves: RIS sends measurement signals; UE receives measurement and reports; the base station determines the service RIS or service beam or cooperative RIS or cooperative beam according to the measurement information reported by UE, and coordinates the interference process; accordingly, it can support solving the problem that in a multi-RIS multi-UE system, the signal forwarded by RIS may be useful signal to UE1, but will cause interference to UE2 (UE2 refers to other UEs except UE1); Specifically, by increasing RIS measurement signals and measuring them to obtain channel information and interference information, the present scheme can reasonably adjust the coverage range and direction of RIS, which can improve the system performance and reduce interference conflicts.

[0330] The scheme can be understood as adjustment of beamforming of at least one beam under the RIS (including adjustment for a serving RIS and / or a non-serving RIS); in addition, the above candidate RIS can be understood as a candidate serving RIS, and the RIS not notified by the base station can be considered as an interference RIS. Regarding the beamforming adjustment, for the case of adjusting the RIS as a whole, it can be adjusting the interference of the RIS as a whole (such as adjusting the coefficient) to the non-target area; for the case of adjusting the beam, it can be switching the beam, or adjusting the beamforming, etc., which are not limited here.
