Abstract
Description
A method and apparatus for use in nodes for wireless communication Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to transmission methods and apparatus in wireless communication systems, and more particularly to schemes and apparatus related to CSI (Channel Status Information) in wireless communication systems. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional wireless communication, the UE (User Equipment) reports various auxiliary information obtained through measurements of downlink signals and / or channels, such as channel information, beam management-related auxiliary information, and positioning-related auxiliary information. CSI (Channel Status Information) includes, but is not limited to, one or more of CRI (CSI-RS Resource Indicator), RI (Rank Indicator), PMI (Precoding Matrix Indicator), CQI (Channel Quality Indicator), or L1-RSRP (Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Power). The UE can use this information to select appropriate transmission parameters or report this information itself. Network devices select appropriate transmission parameters for the UE based on its reports, such as the cell to be camped, MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme), TPMI (Transmitted Precoding Matrix Indicator), and TCI (Transmission Configuration Indication). Furthermore, UE reports can be used to optimize network parameters, such as improving cell coverage and switching base stations on / off based on the UE's location.
[0003] In traditional cellular communication, the antenna port is used to describe reference signal resources; unlike the physical antenna, the antenna port can be considered a virtualization / overlay operation of the physical antenna.
[0004] In NRR (release) 18, research on AI (Artificial Intelligence) / ML (Machine Learning) technologies was initiated to explore their impact on system performance and design. AI / ML technologies may also play a crucial role in future 6G communications. Compared to traditional processing methods, AI / ML is characterized by its training-based and deployment-required nature. According to the 3GPP standard TS38.300, AI / ML models and algorithms exceed the scope of 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project).
[0005] At the 117bis meeting of RAN (Radio Access Network) WG (Working Group) 1, Supported Functionality and Applicable Functionality were approved. Supported Functionality is indicated in UE capability reporting, while Applicable Functionality is determined by the UE based on network-side additional conditions and UE-side additional conditions, and is indicated to the network. Applicable Functionality usually means that the corresponding AI model is available, or the corresponding inference configuration can be activated / executed. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The applicant's research revealed that the existing indication mechanism for applicable functions cannot promptly reflect changes in additional conditions on the UE side, thus failing to execute the optimal inference configuration.
[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, this application discloses a solution. It should be noted that while this application is motivated by the application of AI / ML models, and many embodiments are specifically designed for AI / ML, it is also applicable to other solutions, such as traditional receiving algorithms / solutions. Although the specification of this application involves descriptions of some AI / ML models and algorithms, those skilled in the art will understand that these descriptions are not essential or irreplaceable for solutions related to wireless cellular communication. Furthermore, adopting a unified solution for different scenarios (including but not limited to AI / ML-based solutions and traditional receiving algorithms / solutions) helps reduce signaling overhead / complexity, hardware complexity, and cost. Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the first node of this application can be applied to the second node, and vice versa. Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.
[0008] Furthermore, although some embodiments of this application are described based on the 5G protocol, this application is also applicable to communication standards after 5G without conflict.
[0009] When necessary, the interpretation of terms used in this application shall be based on the definitions in the 3GPP specification protocol TS38 series, or the definitions in the 3GPP specification protocol TS28 series.

[0321] Example 3
[0322] Example 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a wireless protocol architecture for the user plane and control plane according to an embodiment of this application, as shown in Figure 3.
[0323] Example 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a wireless protocol architecture for a user plane and control plane according to this application, as shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for a user plane 350 and a control plane 300. Figure 3 shows the radio protocol architecture for the control plane 300 between a first communication node device (UE, gNB, or RSU in V2X) and a second communication node device (gNB, UE, or RSU in V2X), or between two UEs, using three layers: Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3. Layer 1 (L1 layer) is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (physical layer) signal processing functions. Layer 1 will be referred to herein as PHY 301. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY 301 and is responsible for the link between the first communication node device and the second communication node device, or between two UEs. Layer L2 305 includes a MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, an RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303, and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304, which terminate at the second communication node device. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides multiplexing between different radio bearers and logical channels. It also provides security through encrypted data packets and supports cross-cell mobility between the second communication node devices and the first communication node device. The RLC sublayer 303 provides upper-layer packet segmentation and reassembly, retransmission of lost packets, and packet reordering to compensate for out-of-order reception due to HARQ. The MAC sublayer 302 provides multiplexing between logical and transport channels. It is also responsible for allocating various radio resources (e.g., resource blocks) within a cell among the first communication node devices. Furthermore, the MAC sublayer 302 handles HARQ operations. In the control plane 300, the Radio Resource Control (RRC) sublayer 306 of Layer 3 (L3) is responsible for acquiring radio resources (i.e., radio bearers) and configuring the lower layers using RRC signaling between the second and first communication node devices. The user plane 350's radio protocol architecture includes Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2). The radio protocol architecture for the first and second communication node devices in the user plane 350 is largely the same as the corresponding layers and sublayers in the control plane 300 for Physical Layer 351, PDCP sublayer 354 in L2 Layer 355, RLC sublayer 353 in L2 Layer 355, and MAC sublayer 352 in L2 Layer 355. However, PDCP sublayer 354 also provides header compression for upper layer data packets to reduce radio transmission overhead.The L2 layer 355 in the user plane 350 also includes an SDAP (Service Data Adaptation Protocol) sublayer 356, which is responsible for mapping between QoS streams and data radio bearers (DRBs) to support service diversity. Although not illustrated, the first communication node device may have several upper layers above the L2 layer 355, including a network layer (e.g., IP layer) terminating at the P-GW on the network side and an application layer terminating at the other end of the connection (e.g., a remote UE, server, etc.).

[0332] As an example, the fourth message is generated in the MAC sublayer 302 or the MAC sublayer 352.

[0334] As an example, the fifth message is generated in the RRC sublayer 306.
[0335] Example 4
[0336] Example 4 illustrates a schematic diagram of a first communication device and a second communication device according to an embodiment of this application, as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4 is a block diagram of a first communication device 410 and a second communication device 450 communicating with each other in an access network.
[0337] The first communication device 410 includes a controller / processor 475, a memory 476, a receiver processor 470, a transmitter processor 416, a multi-antenna receiver processor 472, a multi-antenna transmitter processor 471, a transmitter / receiver 418, and an antenna 420.
[0338] The second communication device 450 includes a controller / processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmitting processor 468, a receiving processor 456, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 457, a multi-antenna receiving processor 458, a transmitter / receiver 454, and an antenna 452.
[0339] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the first communication device 410, upper-layer data packets from the core network are provided to the controller / processor 475. The controller / processor 475 implements L2 layer functionality. In DL (Downlink), the controller / processor 475 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and radio resource allocation to the second communication device 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for HARQ operation, retransmission of lost packets, and signaling to the second communication device 450. The transmit processor 416 and the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 implement various signal processing functions for L1 layer (i.e., physical layer). Transmit processor 416 performs encoding and interleaving to facilitate forward error correction (FEC) at the second communication device 450, and constellation mapping based on various modulation schemes (e.g., binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), M-phase shift keying (M-PSK), and M-quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM). Multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs digital spatial precoding on the encoded and modulated symbols, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing, generating one or more parallel... The transmit processor 416 then maps each parallel stream to a subcarrier, multiplexes the modulated symbols with a reference signal (e.g., a pilot) in the time and / or frequency domains, and then uses an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to generate a physical channel carrying the time-domain multicarrier symbol stream. The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 then performs transmit analog precoding / beamforming operations on the time-domain multicarrier symbol stream. Each transmitter 418 converts the baseband multicarrier symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 into an RF stream, which is then provided to a different antenna 420.
[0340] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the second communication device 450, each receiver 454 receives a signal through its corresponding antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated onto the radio frequency carrier and converts the radio frequency stream into a baseband multicarrier symbol stream, which is then provided to the receiver processor 456. The receiver processor 456 and the multi-antenna receiver processor 458 implement various signal processing functions of the L1 layer. The multi-antenna receiver processor 458 performs receive analog precoding / beamforming operations on the baseband multicarrier symbol stream from the receiver 454. The receiver processor 456 uses a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to convert the baseband multicarrier symbol stream after the receive analog precoding / beamforming operations from the time domain to the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, the physical layer data signal and the reference signal are demultiplexed by the receiver processor 456, where the reference signal is used for channel estimation, and the data signal is recovered in the multi-antenna receiver processor 458 after multi-antenna detection to recover any parallel stream destined for the second communication device 450. Symbols on each parallel stream are demodulated and recovered in the receive processor 456, generating soft decisions. The receive processor 456 then decodes and deinterleaves the soft decisions to recover the upper-layer data and control signals transmitted over the physical channel by the first communication device 410. The upper-layer data and control signals are then provided to the controller / processor 459. The controller / processor 459 implements the functions of Layer 2 (L2). The controller / processor 459 may be associated with a memory 460 storing program code and data. The memory 460 may be referred to as computer-readable media. In the DL (Layered Logic), the controller / processor 459 provides multiplexing, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing between the transmission and logical channels to recover upper-layer packets from the core network. The upper-layer packets are then provided to all protocol layers above Layer 2. Various control signals may also be provided to Layer 3 (L3) for L3 processing. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for error detection using ACK and / or NACK protocols to support HARQ operation.
[0341] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, at the second communication device 450, a data source 467 is used to provide upper-layer data packets to the controller / processor 459. The data source 467 represents all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar to the transmission functions at the first communication device 410 described in the DL, the controller / processor 459 implements header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between logical and transport channels based on the radio resource allocation of the first communication device 410, implementing L2 layer functions for the user plane and control plane. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for HARQ operations, retransmission of lost packets, and signaling to the first communication device 410. Transmit processor 468 performs modulation mapping and channel coding processing, while multi-antenna transmit processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding, including codebook-based and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing. Subsequently, transmit processor 468 modulates the generated parallel stream into a multi-carrier / single-carrier symbol stream. After analog precoding / beamforming operations in multi-antenna transmit processor 457, the stream is provided to different antennas 452 via transmitter 454. Each transmitter 454 first converts the baseband symbol stream provided by multi-antenna transmit processor 457 into a radio frequency symbol stream before providing it to antenna 452.
[0342] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, the function at the first communication device 410 is similar to the receiving function at the second communication device 450 described in the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450. Each receiver 418 receives radio frequency signals through its corresponding antenna 420, converts the received radio frequency signals into baseband signals, and provides the baseband signals to the multi-antenna receiving processor 472 and the receiving processor 470. The receiving processor 470 and the multi-antenna receiving processor 472 jointly implement the L1 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 implements the L2 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 may be associated with a memory 476 that stores program code and data. The memory 476 may be referred to as computer-readable media. The controller / processor 475 provides multiplexing, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing between the transmission and logical channels to recover upper-layer data packets from the second communication device 450. The upper-layer data packets from the controller / processor 475 may be provided to the core network. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for error detection using ACK and / or NACK protocols to support HARQ operation.
