基於多用戶MIMO傳輸發送與接收下行控制資訊的方法及設備Method and device for transmitting and receiving downlink control information based on multi-user MIMO transmission

本發明之實施方式一般地涉及無線通信技術領域。更具體而言,本發明之實施方式涉及用於基於多用戶多輸入多輸出(MIMO)傳輸來發送及接收下行控制資訊之方法及設備。Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to the field of wireless communication technologies. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention relate to methods and apparatus for transmitting and receiving downlink control information based on multi-user multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission.

在無線通信系統中,頻道實體下行控制頻道(PDCCH)為整個通信系統之上下行傳輸分配各種資源,對系統排程起著非常關鍵之作用。特別地,對於例如多用戶多輸入多輸出(MU-MIMO)及多點協調傳輸/接收(CoMP)系統而言,PDCCH之容量限制對於MU-MIMO及CoMP之整體效能產生重要影響。舉例而言,在MU-MIMO傳輸中,許多用戶設備(UE)需要被排程在相同之訊框上以期實現MU-MIMO增益,但當前PDCCH僅包括有限數目之控制頻道單元(CCE),且幾乎多半之此等CCE將預留用於上行鏈路(UL)之許可。在CoMP傳輸之案例4中,PDCCH容量短缺變得比其他案例更為嚴重,此係因為更多之UE將被排程且由此消耗更多之PDCCH頻寬。In a wireless communication system, a channel entity downlink control channel (PDCCH) allocates various resources for downlink transmission over the entire communication system, which plays a key role in system scheduling. In particular, for multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) and multi-point coordinated transmission/reception (CoMP) systems, for example, the capacity limitations of the PDCCH have a significant impact on the overall performance of MU-MIMO and CoMP. For example, in MU-MIMO transmission, many user equipments (UEs) need to be scheduled on the same frame to achieve MU-MIMO gain, but the current PDCCH only includes a limited number of Control Channel Elements (CCEs), and Almost half of these CCEs will reserve a license for the uplink (UL). In Case 4 of CoMP transmission, the PDCCH capacity shortage becomes more severe than in other cases, as more UEs will be scheduled and thus consume more PDCCH bandwidth.

為了提昇增強之長期演進(LTE-A)系統之下行鏈路(DL)MIMO效能,需要考慮減少PDCCH之控制附加項並改進PDCCH的設計,以便避免與部署MU-MIMO/CoMP相關之DL控制區域之容量限制。當前減小DL控制附加項主要係藉由減小用於實體下行共用頻道(PDSCH)及實體上行共 用頻道(PUSCH)排程之下行控制資訊(DCI)格式的大小來實現。對於具有MU-MIMO/CoMP操作之LTE Rel-8/9/10之UE而言,每個配對之UE(即,參與MU-MIMO傳輸之群組內之成員)皆具有其各自之用於排程指示之DCI。因此,具有相應之DCI格式之多個PDCCH將被用於佔用相同資源區塊的所有配對之UE。對於現有之DCI格式,每個DCI中之許多域或欄位(例如,資源區塊(RB)分配及載波指示等)皆是相同的。另外,對於每個PDCCH頻道皆附加有16位元之循環冗餘檢驗(CRC)。此等設置皆將消耗過多之附加項,並由此對DCI訊息之遞送效率造成嚴重降級。In order to improve the downlink (DL) MIMO performance of the Enhanced Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) system, it is necessary to consider reducing the control addition of the PDCCH and improving the design of the PDCCH in order to avoid the DL control region associated with deploying MU-MIMO/CoMP. Capacity limit. The current reduction of DL control additions is mainly due to the reduction of the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and the physical uplink commonality. This is achieved by using the channel control information (DCI) format under the channel (PUSCH) schedule. For UEs with MU-MIMO/CoMP operation of LTE Rel-8/9/10, each paired UE (ie, a member participating in a group of MU-MIMO transmissions) has its own for row The DCI indicated by the process. Therefore, multiple PDCCHs with corresponding DCI formats will be used for all paired UEs occupying the same resource block. For existing DCI formats, many of the fields or fields in each DCI (eg, resource block (RB) allocation and carrier indication, etc.) are the same. In addition, a 16-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is attached to each PDCCH channel. These settings will consume too many additional items and thus severely degrade the delivery efficiency of DCI messages.

在MU-MIMO傳輸中,當排程之多個用戶之間不具有足夠之空間正交性時,多用戶干擾(MUI)將會產生。由於缺乏瞭解同時被排程之其他UE所造成的干擾資訊,受該MUI影響之UE將經歷傳輸效能之損失。若形成群組或配對之UE能夠知道群組內或配對之其他UE之MUI資訊(例如預編碼或頻道狀態資訊),則該UE可選擇合適之接收器演算法來進行MUI抑制。In MU-MIMO transmission, multi-user interference (MUI) will occur when there is not enough spatial orthogonality between multiple users of the schedule. Due to the lack of interference information that is known to other UEs that are scheduled at the same time, UEs affected by the MUI will experience a loss in transmission performance. If the group forming or paired UE can know the MUI information (eg, precoding or channel status information) of other UEs in the group or paired, the UE can select a suitable receiver algorithm for MUI suppression.

因此,現有技術中需要一種基於MU-MIMO傳輸發送DCI之方法及設備。利用該方法及設備,可減小DL控制附加項,從而提昇通信系統之整體效能,且進一步實現MUI抑制,從而提昇UE傳輸速率及系統輸送量。Therefore, there is a need in the prior art for a method and apparatus for transmitting DCI based on MU-MIMO transmission. By using the method and the device, the DL control addition item can be reduced, thereby improving the overall performance of the communication system, and further implementing the MUI suppression, thereby improving the UE transmission rate and the system transmission amount.

圖4示意性示出根據本發明一項實施方式之基於MU- MIMO傳輸來發送及接收DCI的方法400之詳細流程圖。如圖4中所示,方法400開始於步驟S401,其中由多個UE向BS發送各自之CSI,儘管此處為了簡明起見僅僅示出一個UE。在步驟S402中,BS基於接收到之CSI,將多個UE分配成一或多個群組。接著,在步驟S403中,BS藉由RRC發信號或層1發信號向各個群組之UE發送標識資訊,該標識資訊包括前述標識該群組之g-RNTI及用於標識群組內之各UE的群組內UE特定標識。FIG. 4 schematically illustrates a MU-based based on an embodiment of the present invention. A detailed flow diagram of a method 400 of MIMO transmission to transmit and receive DCI. As shown in FIG. 4, method 400 begins in step S401, where respective CSIs are transmitted by a plurality of UEs to a BS, although only one UE is shown here for the sake of brevity. In step S402, the BS allocates a plurality of UEs into one or more groups based on the received CSI. Then, in step S403, the BS sends the identifier information to the UE of each group by using the RRC signaling or the layer 1 signaling, where the identifier information includes the g-RNTI that identifies the group and is used to identify each of the groups. UE-specific identification within the group of the UE.

接著,在步驟S404中,BS根據排程及資源分配之判定結果來形成根據本發明之新DCI,該DCI具有如前所述之結構,即針對群組之公共排程指示資訊及針對群組內之各UE的特定排程指示資訊。在步驟S405中,BS對用於DCI之CRC資訊利用g-RNTI進行加擾且將其附加於DCI。流程前進至步驟S406,此處,BS根據g-RNTI及DMRS之配置資訊生成DMRS。接著,在步驟S407中,BS向各個群組內之各個UE發送該新格式之DCI(例如,經由現有PDCCH域或增強PDCCH(ePDCCH)域)及DMRS。方法400之上述步驟之執行完成在BS側之處理。接著,方法400進入至UE側之處理流程。Next, in step S404, the BS forms a new DCI according to the present invention according to the determination result of the scheduling and resource allocation, and the DCI has the structure as described above, that is, the public scheduling indication information for the group and the group Specific schedule indication information for each UE within. In step S405, the BS scrambles the CRC information for DCI with the g-RNTI and appends it to the DCI. The flow proceeds to step S406, where the BS generates a DMRS according to the configuration information of the g-RNTI and the DMRS. Next, in step S407, the BS transmits the DCI of the new format (for example, via an existing PDCCH domain or an enhanced PDCCH (ePDCCH) domain) and a DMRS to each UE in each group. Execution of the above steps of method 400 completes the processing on the BS side. Next, method 400 proceeds to the processing flow on the UE side.

在步驟S408中,UE藉由利用先前接收到之g-RNTI對UE特定搜尋空間進行搜尋來對DCI進行解碼,其中包括利用g-RNTI對CRC執行解擾操作且利用CRC資訊對接收到之DCI完成檢查操作。接著,在步驟S409,UE將利用接收到之g-RNTI及其自身之特定標識來讀取DCI資訊中之公共排 程指示資訊及特定排程指示資訊,以便進行後續之DMRS解調變及PDSCH解調變。In step S408, the UE decodes the DCI by searching for the UE-specific search space by using the previously received g-RNTI, including performing a descrambling operation on the CRC by using the g-RNTI and using the CRC information to receive the DCI. Complete the check operation. Next, in step S409, the UE will use the received g-RNTI and its own specific identifier to read the public row in the DCI information. The program indicates information and specific schedule indication information for subsequent DMRS demodulation and PDSCH demodulation.

接著,在步驟S410中,基於獲取之該UE及群組內其他UE之DMRS配置資訊,對該UE之DMRS及群組內其他UE之DMRS執行解調變操作。在步驟S411中,藉由解調變群組內其他UE之DMRS可獲知由其他UE造成MUI之資訊(例如預編碼或CSI資訊),從而UE可基於獲取之干擾資訊來選擇合適之接收器演算法對MUI進行抑制。例如,UE可選擇高階最小均方差(MMSE)接收器演算法來進行PDSCH解碼以抑制MUI。在此種情形下,UE之輸送效能可得到進一步提昇。Next, in step S410, based on the acquired DMRS configuration information of the UE and other UEs in the group, the DMRS of the UE and the DMRS of other UEs in the group are subjected to a demodulation operation. In step S411, the MUI information (such as precoding or CSI information) caused by other UEs can be learned by demodulating the DMRSs of other UEs in the group, so that the UE can select an appropriate receiver calculus based on the acquired interference information. The method suppresses the MUI. For example, the UE may select a higher order least mean square error (MMSE) receiver algorithm for PDSCH decoding to suppress the MUI. In this case, the UE's transmission efficiency can be further improved.

藉由本發明之上述實施方式之方法400,新格式之DCI減小了由於反覆發送具有相同內容之公共指示資訊及多次附加之CRC資訊而造成的下行控制發信號附加項。同時,藉由估計MU-MIMO傳輸中來自其他UE之MUI,UE可以預先選擇合適之接收器演算法,從而實現對MUI之有效抑制。另外,上述之流程順序僅僅是實例性的,在不背離本發明之教導下,熟習此項技術者根據需要可對其進行改變。With the method 400 of the above-described embodiment of the present invention, the DCI of the new format reduces the downlink control signaling addition caused by repeatedly transmitting the common indication information having the same content and the CRC information added multiple times. At the same time, by estimating the MUI from other UEs in the MU-MIMO transmission, the UE can pre-select an appropriate receiver algorithm to achieve effective suppression of the MUI. In addition, the above-described sequence of the processes is merely exemplary, and those skilled in the art can change them as needed without departing from the teachings of the present invention.
