A method, device and system for determining timing advance

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202410518937.1, filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on April 26, 2024, entitled “A method, apparatus and system for determining timing advance”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a method, device and system for determining timing advance. Background Technology

[0003] Non-terrestrial network (NTN) communication boasts advantages such as wide coverage, long communication distance, high reliability, high flexibility, and high throughput, and is unaffected by geographical environment, climate conditions, and natural disasters. Satellite communication, for example, has been widely applied in fields such as aviation, maritime, and military communications. In satellite communication systems, because satellites are subject to various perturbations, terminal equipment needs to periodically update ephemeris information to ensure communication performance. However, after updating the ephemeris information, the timing deviation determined based on the new ephemeris information will abruptly change compared to the timing deviation determined based on the old ephemeris information. This abrupt change in timing deviation will affect the system performance of the communication system. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a method, device, and system for determining timing advance. When the terminal device switches ephemeris information, it determines the corresponding timing advance based on the ephemeris information and timing deviation, thereby avoiding sudden changes in timing deviation caused by ephemeris switching and improving the stability of the communication system.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] Firstly, this application provides a timing advance determination method applied to a terminal device. The method may include: receiving first ephemeris information, which is different from second ephemeris information, where the second ephemeris information is the ephemeris information currently used by the terminal device; when performing ephemeris switching based on the first ephemeris information, determining the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information, the second ephemeris information, and a timing deviation, wherein the timing deviation is used to characterize the delay error corresponding to the first ephemeris information measured through a physical channel. Based on this, the terminal device switches from using the second ephemeris information to using the first ephemeris information when performing ephemeris switching, wherein the first ephemeris information is the new ephemeris information, and the second ephemeris information is the old ephemeris information.

[0007] The solution provided in the first aspect above allows the terminal device to calculate the timing advance when switching between new and old ephemeris information by acquiring the new and old ephemeris information and the timing deviation measured through the physical channel at the time of the ephemeris information switch. This can avoid sudden changes in the timing deviation of the communication system when switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0008] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information, the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation may include: determining a first compensation delay corresponding to the first ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information; and determining the timing advance based on the first ephemeris information and the first compensation delay. Based on this, the terminal device can determine the first compensation delay during ephemeris switching using the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information. The first compensation delay is used to compensate and correct the first delay calculated according to the first ephemeris information at the time of ephemeris information switching. Then, the timing advance of the communication system is calculated using the first compensation delay and the first ephemeris information, thereby preventing abrupt changes in timing deviation and improving the stable communication performance of the communication system.

[0009] As one possible implementation, determining the first compensation delay corresponding to the first ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information may include: calculating the first delay and the second delay respectively based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information; and determining the first compensation delay based on the first delay, the second delay, the second compensation delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation. Based on this, when determining the first compensation delay, the terminal device calculates the first delay and the second delay according to the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information, respectively. The first delay represents the propagation delay calculated from the old delay information, and the second delay represents the propagation delay calculated from the new delay information. The terminal device can determine the first compensation delay based on the first delay, the second delay, the second compensation delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation. When the terminal device uses the old ephemeris information, the second compensation delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information is used to compensate and correct the propagation delay calculated based on the old ephemeris information. When switching between the new and old ephemeris information, it is used to combine the first delay, the second delay, and the timing deviation to determine the first compensation delay at the time of ephemeris information switching, so as to prevent sudden changes in timing deviation during ephemeris switching and improve the stable communication performance of the communication system.

[0010] As one possible implementation, determining the first compensation delay based on the first delay, the second delay, the second compensation delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation may include: calculating a first value by subtracting the first delay and the second delay; and determining the first compensation delay based on the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation. Based on this, in determining the first compensation delay, the terminal device first determines the difference between the propagation delay determined by the new ephemeris information and the propagation delay determined by the old ephemeris information, i.e., the absolute value of the change in propagation delay when switching between the new and old ephemeris information, based on the first delay and the second delay. Then, it determines the first compensation delay when switching between the new and old ephemeris information based on the calculated difference between the first delay and the second delay, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation, to help determine the timing advance of the communication system and improve the stability and transmission performance of the communication system.

[0011] As one possible implementation, determining the first compensation delay based on the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation may include: summing the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation to obtain the first compensation delay. Based on this, when the terminal device determines the first compensation delay based on the difference between the first delay and the second delay, i.e., the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation, it can sum the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation, and simultaneously accumulate the impact of the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation on the first compensation delay, further determining the timing advance of the communication system to prevent sudden changes in timing deviation during ephemeris switching and improve the stable communication performance of the communication system.

[0012] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance based on the first ephemeris information and the first compensation delay may include: determining the timing advance based on the first delay and the first compensation delay. Based on this, when determining the timing advance of the communication system based on the first ephemeris information and the first compensation delay, the terminal device first determines the first delay corresponding to the new ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information, and then determines the timing advance when switching between the old and new ephemeris information based on the first delay and the first compensation delay, thereby improving the stability and transmission performance of the communication system.

[0013] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance based on the first delay and the first compensated delay may include: summing the first delay and the first compensated delay to obtain the timing advance. Based on this, when determining the timing advance based on the first delay and the first compensated delay, the terminal device sums the first delay and the first compensated delay, and simultaneously accumulates the impact of the first delay and the first compensated delay on the timing advance, to determine the timing advance when switching between old and new ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability and transmission performance of the communication system.

[0014] As one possible implementation, the method may further include: when the first ephemeris information is valid, determining the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation. Therefore, after the first ephemeris information is successfully switched and is still valid, the terminal device determines the timing advance of the communication system using the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation to improve the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0015] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation may include: calculating the first delay based on the first ephemeris information; determining the third compensation delay based on the timing deviation and the first compensation delay; and determining the timing advance based on the first delay and the third compensation delay. Based on this, when the terminal device determines the timing advance of the communication system based on the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation, it first calculates the corresponding first delay based on the first ephemeris information, determines the third compensation delay corresponding to the current time based on the timing deviation and the first compensation information, and then determines the timing advance corresponding to the current time based on the first delay and the third compensation delay, thereby improving the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0016] As one possible implementation, determining the third compensation delay based on the timing deviation and the first compensation delay may include: summing the timing deviation and the first compensation delay to obtain the third compensation delay. Based on this, when determining the third compensation delay based on the timing deviation and the first compensation delay, the terminal device can sum the first compensation delay and the timing deviation, simultaneously accumulating the impact of the first compensation delay and the timing deviation on the third compensation delay, in order to obtain a reasonable timing advance and improve the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0017] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance based on the first delay and the third compensated delay may include: summing the first delay and the third compensated delay to obtain the timing advance. Based on this, the terminal device can determine the timing advance within the first ephemeris validity period by summing the first delay and the third compensated delay to obtain the timing advance, thereby improving the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0018] As one possible implementation, determining the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information, the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation may include: calculating a first delay and a second delay based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information, respectively; and using a filtering model to filter the first delay and the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation to obtain the timing advance. Based on this, at the moment of switching between new and old ephemeris information, the terminal device first calculates the first delay based on the first ephemeris information, calculates the second delay based on the second ephemeris information, and then filters the first and second delays using a filtering model. This avoids abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system during the switch between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0019] As one possible implementation, the filtering model uses filtering parameters greater than 0 and less than 1, which are positively correlated with the difference between the first delay and the second delay. Based on this, when the terminal device filters the first delay and the second delay, the filtering parameters can be between 0 and 1. Specifically, parameter 1 corresponding to the first delay, parameter 2 corresponding to the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation, equals 1. That is, parameter 2 corresponding to the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation equals 1 minus parameter 1 corresponding to the first delay. Furthermore, the greater the difference between the first delay and the second delay, the larger the value of parameter 1, to avoid abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system when switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0020] As one possible implementation, the filtering model includes an alpha filter. Based on this, the terminal device can use an alpha filter to filter the first and second time delays to avoid abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system when switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0021] Secondly, this application provides a terminal device, which includes: a transceiver for transmitting and receiving signals; a memory for storing computer program instructions; and a processor for executing the computer program instructions to support the terminal device in implementing the method as described in any one of the first aspects.

[0034] Currently, satellite communication systems use ephemeris information to calculate satellite position and velocity information, and then use this information to address issues such as timing offset, Doppler frequency shift, and beam direction. The ephemeris information measured and transmitted by the satellite in the current NTN communication system represents a single instant. However, in reality, satellites are affected by various perturbations, causing their trajectories to deviate from the ideal two-body motion assumption. Therefore, over time, the actual ephemeris information deviates significantly from the transmitted ephemeris information.

[0035] Referring to Figure 1, which illustrates the change in ephemeris information error over time, as shown in Figure 1, based on the relationship between the ephemeris information error (m) and the time (t) since the ephemeris generation time, it can be seen that as time progresses, the error of the ephemeris information broadcast by the satellite to the terminal device will increase, and the rate of increase in the error will also accelerate. To prevent the error from accumulating beyond the system's tolerance, the communication protocol defines a maximum validity period for the ephemeris information. When the time for transmitting the ephemeris information exceeds the validity period, the terminal will update the ephemeris information, and the error of the new ephemeris information is smaller. However, after the terminal device updates the ephemeris information, the error of the new ephemeris information will change abruptly compared to the old ephemeris information. But the loop adjustments previously completed based on the old ephemeris information cannot be updated synchronously. Therefore, after updating the ephemeris information, the timing deviation of the communication system will suddenly increase, reaching up to twice the maximum ephemeris error, seriously affecting system performance.

[0036] In some embodiments, the timing deviation of ephemeris information accumulates over time. By shortening the usage time of ephemeris information, the amount of accumulated error can be reduced. Therefore, in order to avoid a sudden increase in the timing deviation of the communication system, the communication system reduces the accumulated error when switching ephemeris information by shortening the validity period of the ephemeris information. The sudden change in timing deviation of the terminal device when switching ephemeris information can also be greatly reduced. However, ephemeris information is carried through the system information block (SIB). After the validity period of the ephemeris information expires, the frequency of the terminal parsing the SIB increases. However, frequent parsing of the SIB will increase the power consumption of the terminal device.

[0037] In some embodiments, the principle of error adjustment based on ephemeris information in a satellite communication system includes: first, the terminal device calculates the spatial coordinates of the satellite based on the ephemeris, obtains the spatial coordinates of the terminal device based on the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) information, then calculates the straight-line distance between the satellite and the terminal device and divides it by the speed of light to obtain the one-way propagation delay between the satellite and the terminal device. Since both the ephemeris information and the GNSS information have errors, a loop adjustment mechanism is also needed, i.e., the measurement of the physical channel to measure and compensate for the residual timing deviation.

[0038] In some embodiments, the timing advance of the satellite communication system is determined based on the aforementioned error adjustment principle of the satellite communication system. For example, when determining the timing advance of the satellite communication system, the timing advance is calculated by summing the propagation delay calculated based on ephemeris / GNSS information and the timing deviation obtained through physical channel measurement. In the NR / LTE system, the timing advance is equal to the two-way propagation delay, that is, twice the sum of the propagation delay and the timing deviation. For example, the timing advance TA in the satellite communication system can be calculated by formula (1): TA = T c +T m (1)

[0039] Among them, T c The propagation delay is calculated based on ephemeris / GNSS information; T m For T-based c After timing adjustment, the timing deviation (i.e., the error in ephemeris / GNSS information calculation) is obtained by measuring through the physical channel.

[0040] When a terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, the timing deviation of the satellite communication system will experience a large abrupt change. At this time, the actual timing advance TA is determined by the sum of the delay calculated from the old ephemeris information and the timing deviation. For example, the timing advance TA in the satellite communication system can be calculated using formula (2): TA = T c-old +T m (2)

[0041] Among them, T c-old This is the propagation delay calculated based on old ephemeris information.

[0042] However, after the terminal equipment switches to the nova ephemeris information, the timing advance TA in the satellite communication system suddenly changes to be calculated using formula (3): TA = T c-new +T m (3)

[0043] Among them, T c-new This is the propagation delay calculated based on the nova ephemeris information.

[0044] Because the timing advance (TA) in a satellite communication system can change abruptly at the moment of switching between new and old ephemeris information, meaning that the timing advance used to determine the moment of switching between new and old ephemeris information solely through new or old ephemeris information can be subject to such abrupt changes, this can affect uplink synchronization in the communication system. This can lead to packet errors or even loss of synchronization during uplink synchronization, thus impacting the transmission performance of the satellite communication system.

[0045] Based on this, embodiments of this application provide a timing advance determination method, device, and system. In this application, when a terminal device switches between old and new ephemeris information, it calculates the timing advance corresponding to the communication system when the terminal device switches between old and new ephemeris information by acquiring the new and old ephemeris information and the timing deviation measured through the physical channel at the time of the ephemeris information switch. In this way, the timing deviation abrupt change during the ephemeris switch can be reduced without shortening the ephemeris validity period. This can avoid the timing deviation of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs abruptly when the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability and transmission performance of the communication system.

[0046] In some embodiments, the terminal device can simultaneously calculate T c-old and T c-new , get T c-old and T c-new The deviation T_delta is one of the factors determining the timing advance of the communication system. Compensation is applied to the deviation to achieve the purpose of timing abrupt changes between old and new systems in the terminal equipment. On the other hand, the terminal equipment can adjust T_delta. c-old and T c-new Filtering is performed to prevent sudden changes in timing deviation in the communication system.

[0047] The network elements involved in this application include satellite base stations in LTE / NR systems and terminal equipment that conducts satellite communication through satellite base stations. Based on the same principle, this application can also be applied to other communication systems that require transmission delay adjustment.

[0048] Terminal devices can also be referred to as user equipment (UE), mobile stations, mobile terminal devices, etc. Terminal devices can be widely used in various scenarios, such as device-to-device (D2D), vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, machine-type communication (MTC), Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality, augmented reality, industrial control, autonomous driving, telemedicine, smart grids, smart furniture, smart offices, smart wearables, smart transportation, smart cities, etc. Terminal devices can be mobile phones, tablets, computers with wireless transceiver capabilities, wearable devices, vehicles, drones, helicopters, airplanes, ships, robots, robotic arms, smart home devices, roadside units (RSUs), sensors, etc. The embodiments of this application do not limit the specific technologies or device forms used in the terminal devices.

[0049] The aforementioned terminal devices can establish connections with the operator's network through interfaces provided by the operator's network (such as N1), and use data and / or voice services provided by the operator's network. The terminal devices can also access the Domain Name System (DNS) through the operator's network, and use operator services deployed on the DNS, and / or services provided by third parties. These third parties can be service providers outside of the operator's network and the terminal devices, and can provide other data and / or voice services to the terminal devices. The specific form of these third parties can be determined according to the actual application scenario and is not limited here.

[0050] In the embodiments of this application, the functions of the network device can be executed by modules (such as chips) within the network device, or by a control subsystem that includes network device functions. This control subsystem, including network device functions, can be a control center in the aforementioned application scenarios such as smart grids, industrial control, intelligent transportation, and smart cities. Similarly, the functions of the terminal device can be executed by modules (such as chips or modems) within the terminal device, or by a device that includes terminal device functions.

[0051] The terminal device can be fixed or mobile. It can be deployed on land, including indoors or outdoors, handheld or vehicle-mounted; it can also be deployed on water; and it can be deployed in the air on aircraft, balloons, and satellites. The embodiments of this application do not limit the application scenarios of the terminal device.

[0052] The uplink scheduling method provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] Referring to Figure 2 in some embodiments, a flowchart illustrating a timing advance determination method provided by an embodiment of this application is shown. As shown in Figure 2, the method is applied to a terminal device and may include steps S201-S202:

[0054] S201: The terminal device receives the first ephemeris information, which is different from the second ephemeris information. The second ephemeris information is the ephemeris information currently used by the terminal device.

[0055] For example, the second ephemeris information is the old ephemeris information, and the first ephemeris information is the new ephemeris information.

[0056] S202: When the terminal device performs ephemeris switching based on the first ephemeris information, it determines the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information, the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation. The timing deviation is used to characterize the delay error corresponding to the first ephemeris information measured through the physical channel.

[0057] In some embodiments, the terminal device may switch ephemeris information immediately after receiving the first ephemeris information, i.e., switch from the second ephemeris information to the first ephemeris information, or it may switch ephemeris information at other times as needed after receiving the first ephemeris information.

[0058] When a terminal device performs an ephemeris switch, it switches from using the second ephemeris information to using the first ephemeris information. The first ephemeris information is the new ephemeris information, and the second ephemeris information is the old ephemeris information. The terminal device switches ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information, that is, the terminal device switches from the old ephemeris information to the new ephemeris information.

[0059] In some embodiments, when switching ephemeris information, the terminal device can calculate the timing advance for switching between the new and old ephemeris information based on the new ephemeris information, the old ephemeris information, and the timing deviation measured through the physical channel at the time of the ephemeris information switch. Based on this, abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system can be avoided when switching between the new and old ephemeris information, thus improving the stability of the communication system.

[0060] In some embodiments, the terminal device may first determine the first compensation delay corresponding to the first ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information, wherein the first compensation delay is used to compensate and correct the first delay calculated according to the first ephemeris information at the time when the terminal device switches the ephemeris information; and then determine the timing advance based on the first ephemeris information and the first compensation delay.

[0061] In some embodiments, the terminal device may first calculate a first delay and a second delay based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information, respectively, and then determine the first compensated delay based on the first delay, the second delay, the second compensated delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information, and the timing deviation. The first delay represents the propagation delay calculated from the old delay information, and the second delay represents the propagation delay calculated from the new delay information. The second compensated delay corresponding to the second ephemeris information is used to compensate and correct the propagation delay calculated based on the old ephemeris information when the terminal device uses the old ephemeris information. When switching between the new and old ephemeris information, it is used to combine the first delay, the second delay, and the timing deviation to determine the first ephemeris information at the time of ephemeris information switching.

[0062] In some embodiments, the terminal device may first calculate a first value by subtracting the first delay and the second delay, and then determine the first compensation delay based on the first value, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation. For example, the terminal device may first determine the difference between the propagation delay determined by the new ephemeris information and the propagation delay determined by the old ephemeris information based on the first delay and the second delay, that is, the absolute value of the change in propagation delay when switching between the new ephemeris information and the old ephemeris information. Then, based on the calculated difference between the first delay and the second delay, the second compensation delay, and the timing deviation, the terminal device may determine the first compensation delay when switching between the new and old ephemeris information to help determine the timing advance of the communication system.

[0063] In some embodiments, the terminal device can sum the first value, the second compensated delay, and the timing deviation to obtain the first compensated delay. That is, when determining the first compensated delay based on the difference between the first delay and the second delay (i.e., the first value, the second compensated delay, and the timing deviation), the terminal device can sum the first value, the second compensated delay, and the timing deviation, and simultaneously accumulate the impact of the first value, the second compensated delay, and the timing deviation on the first compensated delay to further determine the timing advance of the communication system.

[0064] In some examples, the terminal device maintains a compensation variable T_comp (i.e., the first compensation delay in the aforementioned embodiments) to correct or compensate for the delay in ephemeris calculation. When the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, in addition to the timing deviation of the channel measurement (i.e., Tm in the aforementioned embodiments), it also needs to add the difference T_delta (i.e., the first value in the aforementioned embodiments) between the first delay and the second delay calculated from the new ephemeris information and the old ephemeris information.

[0065] In some embodiments, the terminal device can determine the timing advance based on the first delay and the first compensated delay. For example, the terminal device can first determine the first delay corresponding to the new ephemeris information based on the first ephemeris information, and then determine the timing advance when switching between the old and new ephemeris information based on the first delay and the first compensated delay.

[0066] In some embodiments, the terminal device can sum the first delay and the first compensated delay to obtain the timing advance. For example, the terminal device can sum the first delay and the first compensated delay, and simultaneously accumulate the impact of the first delay and the first compensated delay on the timing advance, in order to determine the timing advance when switching between old and new ephemeris information.

[0067] In some examples, see Figure 3, which shows a flowchart of a timing advance determination method provided by an embodiment of this application at different times. As shown in Figure 3, at the time t0 when the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, the transmission delay calculated by the terminal device based on the old ephemeris information is Tc_old(t0), the transmission delay calculated based on the new ephemeris information is Tc_new(t0), and the measurement feedback Tm(t0) of the previous time (i.e., the timing deviation in the aforementioned embodiment).

[0068] Based on formula (4), calculate T_delta according to Tc_old and Tc_new: T_delta=Tc_old(t0)-Tc_new(t0) (4)

[0069] Based on formula (5), the first compensation delay T_comp(t0) at time t0 is calculated according to T_delta: T_comp(t0)=T_comp(t1)+T_delta+Tm(t0) (5)

[0070] Where T_comp(t1) is the T_comp calculated based on the old ephemeris information at time t1 before t0; Tm(t0) represents the timing deviation of the base station feedback at time t0.

[0071] In some examples, the timing deviation received by the terminal device can be at time t0 or earlier than time t0. The timing deviation at time Tm(t0) is obtained by measuring the uplink signal at a certain time before t0. Therefore, Tm(t0) represents the delay value at a certain time before t0.

[0072] Based on formula (6), calculate the TA value at time t0 (i.e., the timing advance in the aforementioned embodiment) according to T_comp(t0) and Tc_new(t0): TA(t0)=Tc-new(t0)+T-comp(t0) (6)

[0073] In some embodiments, the terminal device uses the aforementioned T_comp(t0) as a propagation delay compensation, which can prevent abrupt timing deviations when the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, thus preventing system performance degradation during ephemeris switching. There are no abrupt timing changes during the switch between old and new ephemeris, allowing for a smooth transition.

[0074] In some embodiments, when the first ephemeris information is valid, the terminal device determines the timing advance of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs based on the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation. After the first ephemeris information is successfully switched and is still valid, the terminal device determines the timing advance of the communication system using the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation to improve the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0075] In some embodiments, the terminal device calculates the first delay based on the first ephemeris information; determines a third compensation delay based on the timing deviation and the first compensation delay; and determines the timing advance based on the first delay and the third compensation delay. When the terminal device determines the timing advance of the communication system based on the first ephemeris information and the timing deviation, it first calculates the corresponding first delay based on the first ephemeris information, determines the third compensation delay corresponding to the current time based on the timing deviation and the first compensation information, and then determines the timing advance corresponding to the current time based on the first delay and the third compensation delay to improve the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0076] In some embodiments, the terminal device sums the timing deviation and the first compensation delay to obtain the third compensation delay. When determining the third compensation delay based on the timing deviation and the first compensation delay, the terminal device can sum the first compensation delay and the timing deviation, and simultaneously accumulate the impact of the first compensation delay and the timing deviation on the third compensation delay, in order to obtain a reasonable timing advance and improve the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0077] In some embodiments, the terminal device sums the first delay and the third compensated delay to obtain the timing advance. The terminal device determines the timing advance within the first ephemeris validity period using the first delay and the third compensated delay, and can sum the first delay and the third compensated delay to obtain the timing advance, thereby improving the transmission performance of the communication system.

[0078] In some examples, the terminal device maintains a compensation variable T_comp (i.e., the first compensation delay in the aforementioned embodiments) to correct or compensate for the delay in ephemeris calculation. When the terminal device is not involved in switching from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information and is within the validity period of the new ephemeris information, the compensation variable T_comp only needs to accumulate the timing deviation Tm of the channel measurement.

[0079] In some examples, as shown in Figure 3, at time t1 when the terminal device does not involve switching from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information and is within the validity period of the old ephemeris information, the transmission delay calculated based on the old ephemeris information is Tc_old(t1). The measurement feedback Tm(t1) of the previous time (i.e., the timing deviation in the aforementioned embodiment) is obtained. Based on formula (7), the third compensation delay T_comp(t1) at time t1 is calculated according to Tm(t1) and T_comp(t2): T_comp(t1)=T_comp(t2)+Tm(t1) (7)

[0080] Where t2 is a time before t1, T_comp(t2) represents the T_comp value at time t2, and Tm(t1) represents the timing deviation of the base station feedback at time t1 (the terminal device may receive the timing deviation earlier than time t1).

[0081] In some examples, the transmission delay at time Tm(t1) is obtained by measuring the uplink signal at a time prior to t1, representing the delay value at that time. When t1 is the first frame, i.e., there is no historical value of T_comp, T_comp is considered 0. The adjustment amount of TA (i.e., the third compensation delay in the aforementioned embodiment) is Tc_old(t1) + T_comp(t1). Wherein, Tc_old(t1) is the TA value calculated based on ephemeris at time t1.

[0082] Based on formula (8), calculate the TA value at time t1 (i.e., the timing advance in the aforementioned embodiment) according to T_comp(t1) and Tc_old(t1): TA(t1)=Tc-old(t1)+T-comp(t1) (8)

[0083] In some examples, as shown in Figure 3, at time t3 when the terminal device is within the validity period of the nova ephemeris information, the transmission delay calculated based on the nova ephemeris information is divided into Tc_new(t3). The measurement feedback Tm(t3) of the previous time (i.e., the timing deviation in the aforementioned embodiment) is obtained. Based on formula (9), the third compensation delay T_comp(t3) at time t1 is calculated according to Tm(t3) and T_comp(t0): T_comp(t3)=T_comp(t0)+Tm(t3) (9)

[0084] Where t0 is a time before t3, T_comp(t0) represents the T_comp value at time t0, and Tm(t3) represents the timing deviation of the base station feedback at time t3 (the terminal device may receive the timing deviation earlier than time t3).

[0085] In some examples, the transmission delay at time Tm(t3) is obtained by measuring the uplink signal at a time before t3, representing the delay value at that time before t3. The adjustment amount of TA (i.e., the third compensation delay in the aforementioned embodiment) is Tc-new(t3) + T-comp(t3). Wherein, Tc_old(t1) is the TA value calculated based on ephemeris at time t1.

[0086] Based on formula (10), the TA value at time t3 (i.e., the timing advance in the aforementioned embodiment) is calculated according to T_comp(t3) and Tc_new(t3): TA(t3)=Tc-new(t3)+T-comp(t3) (10)

[0087] In some embodiments, the terminal device can first calculate a first delay and a second delay based on the first ephemeris information and the second ephemeris information, respectively; then, using a filtering model, it performs filtering processing based on the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation, as well as the first delay, to obtain the timing advance. At the moment of switching between new and old ephemeris information, the terminal device first calculates the first delay based on the first ephemeris information, calculates the second delay based on the second ephemeris information, and then filters the first and second delays using a filtering model. This avoids abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system during the switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0088] In some embodiments, the filtering parameters used in the filtering model are greater than 0 and less than 1, and the filtering parameters are positively correlated with the difference between the first delay and the second delay. When the terminal device filters the first delay and the second delay, the filtering parameters can be between 0 and 1. Specifically, parameter 1 corresponding to the first delay, parameter 2 corresponding to the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation, equals 1. That is, parameter 2 corresponding to the sum of the second delay and the second timing deviation equals 1 minus parameter 1 corresponding to the first delay. Furthermore, the greater the difference between the first delay and the second delay, the larger the value of parameter 1, to avoid abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system when switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0089] In some embodiments, the filtering model may be an alpha filter. The terminal device can use an alpha filter to filter the first delay and the second delay to avoid abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system when switching between new and old ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability of the communication system.

[0090] In some examples, see Figure 4, which illustrates a flowchart of a filter-based timing advance determination method provided in this application embodiment. As shown in Figure 4, at the moment when the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, the transmission delay calculated by the terminal device based on the old ephemeris information is Tc_old(0), the transmission delay calculated based on the new ephemeris information is Tc_new(0), and the measurement feedback Tm(t0) of the previous moment (i.e., the timing deviation in the aforementioned embodiment) is also included. Then, an alpha filter is applied to Tc_new(0) and Tm+Tc_old(0), and the filter coefficient can be adjusted according to the system characteristics. The filter parameter is positively correlated with the difference between Tc_new and Tc_old.

[0091] In some examples, when the terminal device switches from old ephemeris information to new ephemeris information, the timing advance TA can be calculated using formula (11): TA(t0)=alpha*(Tc_new(t0))+(1-alpha)*(Tm(t0)+Tc_old(t0)) (11)

[0092] Where Tc_new(0) is the transmission delay calculated based on the new ephemeris, Tc_old(0) is the transmission delay calculated based on the old ephemeris, and alpha generally takes the value range of (0, 1).

[0093] In this embodiment, when the terminal device switches between old and new ephemeris information, it can calculate the timing advance of the communication system at the time of the switch using the new ephemeris information, the old ephemeris information, and the timing deviation measured by the physical channel at the time of the ephemeris information switch. On the other hand, it can filter the propagation delay calculated from the new and old ephemeris information to avoid abrupt changes in the timing deviation of the communication system to which the terminal device belongs when switching from the old ephemeris information to the new ephemeris information, thereby improving the stability and transmission performance of the communication system.
