Description

[Technical field]

[0001] (CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS) This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application submitted to the China Patent Office on April 25, 2022, bearing application number 202210442243.5 and titled "Method for feedback of PMI in multi-TRP transmission, terminal and network side equipment", and a Chinese patent application submitted to the China Patent Office on October 9, 2022, bearing application number 202211228519.6 and titled "Method for feedback of PMI in multi-TRP transmission, terminal and network side equipment", all of the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present application relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and more particularly to a method for feeding back a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) in a multi-transmission reception point (TRP) transmission, a terminal, and a network side device. [Background technology]

[0003] Coordinated Multiple Points (CoMP) transmission refers to the cooperative participation of multiple geographically separated transmission and reception points (TRPs) in transmitting data for one terminal or cooperatively receiving data transmitted by one terminal, and the multiple transmission points participating in cooperation generally refer to base stations of different cells. Through the cooperation of multiple cell base stations, the interference signal can be used as a useful signal to reduce interference between cells and improve the spectrum utilization rate of the system.

[0004] Common CoMP schemes can be classified into one of the following types: Joint Processing (JP) or Collaborative Scheduling (CS) / Coordinated Beamforming (CB).

[0005] Here, joint processing (JP) refers to the fact that data of one terminal (User Equipment, UE) is available on one or more time-frequency resource points in a CoMP cooperating set, including:

[0006] (1) Joint Transmission (JT), for example, transmitting data simultaneously from multiple points (part of a CoMP cooperating set or the entire CoMP cooperating set) to one UE or multiple UEs in one time-frequency resource, or transmitting data simultaneously from multiple points to a UE, for example (coherently or non-coherently) to improve received signal quality and / or data throughput.

[0007] (2) Dynamic Point Selection (DPS) / Frequency Modulation. Data transmission from one point (within the CoMP cooperating set) in one time-frequency resource. The transmission / mixing point can change from one subframe to another, including changes on Radio Bearer (RB) pairs within one subframe. Data is available on multiple points simultaneously. Dynamic Point Selection / Frequency Modulation may also include Dynamic Cell Selection (DCS).

[0008] (3) A combination of DPS and JT. In this case, multiple points can be selected from the time-frequency resource for data transmission. Coordinated Scheduling / Beamforming (CS / CB) means that for one time-frequency resource, the UE's data is only available on one point of the CoMP cooperating set and is transmitted from this point (downlink (DL) data transmission starts from this point), but the user scheduling / beamforming decision is made in coordination among the points corresponding to the CoMP cooperating set. The selection of the launch point is semi-static, i.e., Semi-Persistent Point Selection (SSPS), that is, the launch point can only be changed in a semi-static manner every time a point transmits to one specific UE.

[0009] In the related art, in consideration of the overhead problem of precoding matrix indicator (PMI) feedback, the codebook design adds frequency domain compression, and the highest supported rank number is extended to 4, and the distribution situation of non-zero coefficients indicating PMI feedback in a bitmap manner is added. Here, the codebook generation of each layer may be expressed by the following formula:

[0061] As can be seen, the current R16 Type 2 codebook parameter definition and parameter value are mainly made for the PMI of one TRP. For the joint transmission method of multiple TRPs, when the spatial domain beam of each TRP needs to be fed back, it cannot be directly used, and a certain optimization space is required to reduce the feedback overhead, so feedback reinforcement may be performed to reduce the feedback overhead.

[0062] In the following, the PMI feedback method for multi-TRP transmission according to the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail through several embodiments and application scenarios thereof in conjunction with the drawings.

[0063] 2 shows a flowchart of a feedback method of PMI for multi-TRP transmission in an embodiment of the present application, and the method 200 may be performed by a terminal. In other words, the method may be performed by software or hardware installed in the terminal. As shown in FIG. 2, the method may include the following steps:

[0064] S210, the terminal determines an orthogonal beam group set corresponding to each TRP based on target parameters configured by the network side for the multiple TRPs for which joint transmission is allowed.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present application, the network side may configure target parameters for multiple TRPs for which joint transmission is allowed, where the target parameters may be indicated to the terminal by higher layer signaling or may be configured in the terminal by higher layer configuration signaling.

[0066] In one possible implementation, S210 may include the following steps 1 to 3.

[0067] Step 1: Obtain the target parameters for each of the TRPs.

[0068] In one alternative implementation, the target parameters may include the port configuration parameters of each TRP, i.e., the target parameters may include the port configuration parameters N 1,i and N 2,i and, where N 1,i and N 2,i are the number of antenna ports configured on two dimensions of the same polarization for the TRP i by the network side, where the TRP i is the (i+1)th TRP among the plurality of TRPs;

number

[0069] In one alternative implementation, the target parameters include a port configuration parameter for each of the TRPs and a number of TRPs.

[0073] In one possible implementation, the network side may further configure the predetermined number corresponding to each of the TRPs, that is, the target parameter is: The predetermined number L of the target orthogonal beams, which is the predetermined number of the target orthogonal beams corresponding to the TRP i. i , or may further include a total number L_total of a predetermined number of the target orthogonal beams, which is the sum of the numbers of the target orthogonal beams corresponding to the multiple TRPs.

[0074] Step 2: According to the target parameters of TRP i, an oversampling factor O corresponding to TRP i is calculated based on the indication of upper layer signaling or preset information. 1,i and O 2,i where TRP i is the (i+1)th TRP of the plurality of TRPs;

[0075] Step 3: The oversampling factor O of the obtained TRP i 1,i and O 2,i Based on the value of

[0076] In one possible implementation manner, the network side may uniformly configure a set of target parameters for each of the TRPs, or may configure a set of target parameters for each of the TRPs respectively, so that obtaining the target parameters of each of the TRPs includes one of the following:

[0077] (1) The network side obtains a set of the target parameters uniformly configured for the multiple TRPs, and the target parameters of the multiple TRPs are the same. For example, the network side may uniformly configure a set of port configuration parameters N1 and N2 for the multiple TRPs and instruct that the port configuration parameters of each TRP are all the same, that is, for each TRP, the terminal obtains an orthogonal beam group set using the port configuration parameters N1 and N2. Also, for example, the network side may uniformly configure the predetermined number L for the multiple TRPs and instruct that the predetermined numbers corresponding to each TRP are all the same. Or, the network side may uniformly configure a set of target parameters N1 and N2 for the multiple TRPs. 2, L may be uniformly configured to indicate that the port configuration parameters and corresponding predetermined numbers of each TRP are all the same.

[0078] Alternatively, in the case of a set of target parameters uniformly configured for all the TRPs by the network side, the port configuration parameters N1 and N2 of the multiple TRPs are all the same, and therefore the oversampling coefficients O1 and O2 corresponding to each of the TRPs are also the same. Therefore, in order to save resources of the terminal, the network side may directly configure the oversampling coefficients O1 and O2. Therefore, in one possible implementation manner, the target parameters may further include values ​​of the oversampling coefficients O1 and O2, and the oversampling coefficient O corresponding to the TRP i may be set to 0. 1,i =O1, O 2,i=O2, that is, each TRP adopts the oversampling coefficients O1 and O2 values ​​of the same group.

[0079] (2) The network side obtains a set of the target parameters configured for each of the TRPs, and a set of the target parameters corresponding to each of the TRPs, respectively, where the target parameters configured for each of the TRPs are not completely the same. For example, for a TRP i among multiple TRPs, the network side obtains a set of port configuration parameters N for this TRP. 1,i and N 2,i For a TRP j among the multiple TRPs (where i is not equal to j), the network side may configure a set of port configuration parameters N 1,j and N 2,j where N 1,i and N 2,i and N 1,j and N 2,j may be the same or different, and for TRP i, the terminal 1,i and N 2,i For TRP j, the terminal obtains the orthogonal beam group set of TRP i using the port configuration parameter N 1,j and N 2,j For example, for TRP i among the multiple TRPs, the predetermined number configured for this TRP by the network side is L i For a TRP j among the multiple TRPs, the predetermined number configured for this TRP by the network side is L j And L i and L j may be the same or different.

[0080] (3) For multiple TRPs, the network side may configure a total number of predetermined numbers L_total for all TRPs, and the predetermined number associated with TRP i among the multiple TRPs is L iand is determined by the terminal based on L_total.

[0081] S212, based on channel information of each of the TRPs, select a target orthogonal beam group corresponding to each of the TRPs from the orthogonal beam group set corresponding to each of the TRPs, and select a predetermined number of target orthogonal beams corresponding to each of the TRPs from the target orthogonal beam group.

[0082] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal may select a target orthogonal beam group corresponding to each TRP from a set of orthogonal beam groups corresponding to each TRP based on channel information of the TRP, and select a predetermined number of target orthogonal beams from the target orthogonal beam group.

[0083] Here, the channel information of each TRP may be obtained by the terminal measuring the channel reference signal of each TRP, and the terminal may select a corresponding target orthogonal beam group and a predetermined number of target orthogonal beams in the target orthogonal beam group based on the measurement result.

[0084] In one possible implementation, S212 may include:

[0105] S216, the terminal transmits PMI parameters including the first feedback parameter and the second feedback parameter.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal may transmit the PMI parameters by a multi-TRP Channel State Information (CSI) report, and the network side may obtain the PMI fed back by the terminal based on the received PMI parameters.

[0107] In one possible implementation manner, before S216, the method may further include:

[0108] Step 1: Obtain the configuration parameters of the network side, and obtain the delay information number corresponding to each of the TRPs. In this step, obtain the delay information number corresponding to each TRP according to the configuration parameters of the network side.

[0109] Step 2: obtain delay information of the plurality of TRPs according to the number of delay information corresponding to each of the TRPs, where the PMI parameters further include delay information of the plurality of TRPs. In this step, the terminal may determine the number of delay information that needs to be obtained according to the number of delay information corresponding to each TRP, and obtain the corresponding number of delay information.

[0110] In one possible implementation, if the number of delay information corresponding to each TRP is different, the delay information of the multiple TRPs may be obtained based on the largest number of delay information among the multiple TRPs.

[0111] For example, the terminal may obtain a network configuration parameter and calculate a terminal feedback delay information number, where the number may be the same or different for each TRP, and the terminal obtains delay information of multiple TRPs based on the delay information number, where the delay information is represented by a DFT vector or other vector. Optionally, when the delay information number obtained by the terminal is different for each TRP, the terminal obtains delay information of multiple TRPs according to a maximum value.

[0112] In one possible implementation manner, the terminal may further obtain a feedback coefficient for feeding back a coefficient matrix of the PMI, and then the PMI parameters may further include the feedback coefficient.

[0113] Alternatively, the terminal may set the amplitude of a TRP corresponding to the strongest coefficient in a coefficient matrix to a reference value, and quantize the amplitudes of the strongest coefficients of other TRPs among the plurality of TRPs based on the reference value to obtain an amplitude quantization coefficient between the TRPs.

[0114] For example, the terminal assumes that the amplitude of the TRP corresponding to the strongest coefficient is 1, quantizes the amplitude of the strongest coefficient of other TRPs based on the strongest coefficient, and feeds back the corresponding TRP amplitude quantization coefficient. For example, 2,6,v Layer v

number

[0115] In one possible implementation manner, when the terminal transmits PMI parameters, the terminal may map the PMI parameters to channel state information CSI and transmit the PMI parameters, where the amplitude quantization coefficient between each of the TRPs is mapped to a second part of CSI and is located before the polarization amplitude indication in the PMI parameters or between the polarization amplitude indication and the window indication in the PMI parameters.

[0116] For example, the terminal maps the amplitude quantization coefficient between the TRPs to Group 2 of CSI Part 2 and feeds it back, and the mapping order is the polarization amplitude indication i 2,3,v before, or polarization amplitude indication i 2,3,vand window instruction i 1,5 Located between.

[0117] According to the above technical solution of the embodiments of the present application, for a joint transmission solution of multiple TRPs, when it is necessary to feed back the spatial domain beam of each TRP, global number feedback can be performed using the number of combinations, thereby reducing the feedback overhead; and by feeding back the amplitude between TRPs, the quantization accuracy can be further improved, which contributes to improving the precoding performance.

[0118] 3 shows a flowchart of a method for acquiring PMI of multi-TRP transmission according to an embodiment of the present application, and the method 300 may be performed by a network side device. In other words, the method may be performed by software or hardware installed in the network side device. As shown in FIG. 3, the method mainly includes the following steps:

[0119] S310, the network side device indicates target parameters of multiple TPRs for which joint transmission is allowed to the terminal.

[0120] Here, the target parameters are the same as the target parameters in the method 200, see the description in the method 200 for details.

[0121] Optionally, the target parameters are: (1) A port configuration parameter N, which is the number of antenna ports configured on two dimensions of the same polarization for TRP i by the network side, 1,i and N 2,i or (2) the port configuration parameter N 1,i and N 2,i and the number of TRPs.

[0122] In one possible implementation, the target parameters are a predetermined number L of target orthogonal beams. i where L i is the predetermined number of the target orthogonal beams corresponding to the TRP i.

[0123] In one possible implementation, the target parameters may further include a total number L_total of a predetermined number of target orthogonal beams, where L_total is the sum of the numbers of target orthogonal beams corresponding to the multiple TRPs.

[0124] In one possible implementation, the network side device transmits the number of the plurality of TRPs to the terminal.

[0125] In one possible implementation, the network side device instructs the terminal of target parameters of multiple TPRs for which joint transmission is allowed, The network side device uniformly configures one set of the target parameters for the multiple TRPs and indicates that the target parameters of the multiple TRPs are the same; or The network side device configures one set of the target parameters for each of the TRPs and indicates one set of the target parameters corresponding to each of the TRPs, where the target parameters configured for each of the TRPs are not completely the same.

[0126] S312, receiving PMI parameters including a first feedback parameter and a second feedback parameter transmitted by the terminal, where the first feedback parameter includes a first combination number indicating target orthogonal beam groups corresponding to a plurality of the TRPs, and / or the second feedback parameter includes a second combination number indicating the predetermined number of target orthogonal beams in each of the target orthogonal beam groups.

[0127] Here, the terminal can transmit the PMI parameters using the manner described in the above method 200, and for details, please refer to the description in the method 200, and no further description will be given here.

[0128] S314, the network side device obtains the PMI of each of the TRPs based on the PMI parameters.

[0129] For example, the network needs to obtain a corresponding orthogonal beam group number based on the first feedback parameter fed back, and if the first feedback parameter is the number of combinations, obtain the corresponding orthogonal beam group number by de-mapping based on a mapping formula from the number to the number of combinations, and obtain the orthogonal beam number by de-mapping based on the second feedback parameter fed back, and obtain the spatial domain (SD) matrix of the PMI using a pre-defined formula based on the orthogonal beam group number and the orthogonal beam number, and obtain the PMI of multiple TRPs specified to the user by multiplication or a pre-defined formula based on the frequency domain (FD) matrix information and coefficient matrix information fed back by the UE.

[0130] According to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, under a scenario of multi-TRP joint transmission, the network side equipment can improve system performance by obtaining the PMI of each TRP based on the PMI parameters fed back by the terminal.

Here, the TRP that is allowed to transmit JT may be one of the TRPs that perform JT transmission CSI feedback selected by the terminal, or may be one of the TRPs that perform JT transmission CSI feedback instructed by the network side through higher layer signaling.

[0140] Alternatively, orthogonal beam group information of each TRP in which JT transmission is permitted may be obtained in the following manner.

[0141] For any one TRP, first obtain port configuration parameters N1 and N2 of this TRP based on higher layer signaling, where N1 and N2 may respectively represent the number of antenna ports on two dimensions (e.g., horizontal dimension and vertical dimension) of the TRP on the same polarization, determine two-dimensional beam oversampling coefficients O1 and O2 based on the number of ports in the two dimensions, and use the channel of this TRP to obtain an orthogonal beam group number.
