Technical field

The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a measurement report reporting method and a user terminal.

Background technique

1) About multiple antennas:

Radio access technology standards such as Long Term Evolution (LTE)/LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) are based on Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) + Orthogonal Frequency Division. Built on the basis of (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, OFDM) technology. Among them, MIMO technology utilizes the spatial freedom that multi-antenna systems can achieve to improve peak rate and system spectrum utilization.

The dimensions of MIMO technology continue to expand during the development of standardization. In LTE Rel-8, up to 4 layers of MIMO transmission can be supported. Multi-user MIMO (Multi-User MIMO, MU-MIMO) technology is enhanced in Rel-9, and MU-MIMO transmission in Transmission Mode 8 (TM-8) can support up to four downlink data layers. In Rel-10, the transmission capability of single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO) is extended to a maximum of 8 data layers.

The industry is further moving MIMO technology toward three-dimensional and large-scale. Currently, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has completed the research project of 3D channel modeling, and is evolving Evolved Full Dimension (eFD)-MIMO and New Radio (New Radio, NR) Research and standardization of MIMO. It is foreseeable that in the future fifth-generation communication technology (5G), a larger-scale, more antenna port MIMO technology will be introduced.

Massive MIMO (Massive MIMO) technology uses large-scale antenna arrays to greatly improve system bandwidth utilization and support a larger number of access users. Therefore, major research organizations regard massive MIMO technology as one of the most promising physical layer technologies in next-generation mobile communication systems.

Maximal spatial resolution and optimal MU-MIMO performance can be achieved with full digital arrays in massive MIMO technology, but this architecture requires a large number of analog-to-digital (AD)/digital-to-analog (DA) conversion devices and a large number of The complete RF-baseband processing channel is a huge burden, both in terms of equipment cost and baseband processing complexity.

In order to avoid the above implementation cost and equipment complexity, digital-analog hybrid beamforming technology emerges, which is based on the traditional digital domain beamforming, adding a first-order beam assignment to the RF signal near the front end of the antenna system. shape. Analog shaping enables a relatively coarse match between the transmitted signal and the channel in a relatively simple manner. The dimension of the equivalent channel formed after the analog shaping is smaller than the actual number of antennas, so the required AD/DA conversion device, the number of digital channels, and the corresponding baseband processing complexity can be greatly reduced. The residual interference of the analog shaped portion can be processed again in the digital domain to ensure the quality of the MU-MIMO transmission. Compared with full digital shaping, digital-analog hybrid beamforming is a compromise between performance and complexity. It has a high practical prospect in systems with high bandwidth and large number of antennas.

2) About the high frequency band:

In the research of next-generation communication systems after the fourth-generation mobile communication technology (4G), the operating frequency band supported by the system is raised to above 6 GHz, up to about 100 GHz. The high frequency band has a relatively rich idle frequency resource, which can provide greater throughput for data transmission. At present, 3GPP has completed the modeling of high-frequency channels. The wavelength of high-frequency signals is short. Compared with the low-band, more antenna elements can be arranged on the same size panel, and beamforming technology is used to form more directivity. A beam with a narrower lobe. Therefore, combining large-scale antennas with high-frequency communications is also one of the future trends.

3) Regarding beam measurement and beam reporting:

The analog beamforming is transmitted at full bandwidth, and each polarization direction array element on the panel of each high frequency antenna array can only transmit analog beams in a time division multiplexed manner. The shaping weight of the analog beam is achieved by adjusting the parameters of the device such as the RF front-end phase shifter.

At present, in the academic and industrial circles, the training of the simulated beamforming vector is usually performed by means of polling, that is, the array elements of each polarization direction of each antenna panel sequentially transmit the training signals in the time-division multiplexing manner at the appointed time. (ie, the candidate shape vector), the terminal feedbacks the beam report after the measurement, and the network side uses the training signal to implement the analog beam transmission in the next transmission service.

The network side configures beam reporting configuration information for the user terminal (UE) through high layer signaling, including content information of the beam report, time domain related information of the beam report (period, aperiodic, semi-persistent), and beam report. Frequency granularity information, etc. The content information in the beam report may include: at least one optimal transmit beam identification information selected by the UE, physical layer measurement results (such as L1-RSRP) of the selected beam of the UE, group information of the selected beam of the UE, and the like.

4) About beam management:

Beam management is divided into downlink beam management and uplink beam management. The mechanism of the downlink beam management is mainly determined by the channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) configured by the base station, and the reference symbol received power (L1-RSRP) of the corresponding beam is measured by the user terminal. The value is reported to the network, and the network maintains a dynamic beam set for use by obtaining measurements, adding or deleting corresponding beams. The uplink performs a similar function by detecting a Channel Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) or a CSI-RS through a base station.

At present, 3GPP discusses whether or not to introduce a Synchronous Signal Block (SS Block) signal into beam management. If the sync signal block signal is introduced into the set of beam management, that is, the sync signal block signal and the CSI-RS two types of reference signals (RS) will be used as reference symbols for beam measurement. If the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS corresponding beam measurement and report setting are respectively configured, frequent reporting is performed, on the one hand, the terminal power consumption is increased, and on the other hand, there may be a case of reporting conflict.

The access terminal, the user terminal, the user agent, and the user device (User Device or User Equipment) are not limited herein.

Referring to FIG. 1, a flow of a measurement report reporting method of an embodiment is shown. The execution body of the method is a user terminal, and the specific steps are as follows:

Step 101: Determine measurement report configuration information, where the measurement report configuration information includes: measurement configuration information of the beam indicated by the at least two types of reference signals, and report configuration information;

Linking the measurement configuration information of the beam indicated by the different types of reference signal types and the reporting configuration information to the same measurement report configuration information, the measurement report configuration information is used to configure beam measurement of different kinds of reference signal type indications. The result reporting period and the reporting format can avoid the situation in which multiple independent measurement results are frequently reported, can reduce the power consumption of the terminal, and can reduce the reporting conflict.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, optionally, the user terminal may acquire the measurement report configuration information configured by the network side (for example, a base station) through an RRC (Radio Resource Control) message.

The at least two types of reference signals may include: a sync signal block signal (or SSB signal for short) and a CSI-RS, and are of course not limited thereto.

Among them, CSI-RS is a concept existing in LTE. Due to the introduction of a beam concept in NR, CSI-RS can be used for indicating beams due to its flexible configuration. The sync signal block is a newly introduced sync signal in the NR, which is periodically transmitted and its period is configurable. The sync block signal can also indicate the beam. In general, a sync signal block signal can indicate a wider beam, while a CSI-RS can indicate a narrower beam. However, both wide and narrow beams can be indicated by a reasonable configuration.

Step 102: Determine beam measurement results indicated by at least two types of reference signals according to the measurement configuration information.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, optionally, the measurement configuration information includes at least: a beam measurement period indicated by each type of reference signal.

Further, each type of reference signal indicates that the beam measurement periods are the same, or each type of reference signal indicates that the beam measurement period is different, or each type of reference signal indicates that the beam measurement period is the same. .

Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS indication beam measurement period are different.

Step 103: Generate a joint measurement report according to the reported configuration information and the beam measurement result, and send the joint measurement report.

That is, the user terminal generates a joint measurement report according to the report configuration information and the beam measurement result, and sends the joint measurement report to the network side.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the reporting configuration information includes: a reporting format of the joint measurement report, and a reporting period offset of the joint measurement report or a reporting period offset of the joint measurement report. The reporting format of the joint measurement report may be configured by the network side, or determined by a predefined manner, and is of course not limited thereto.

The reporting period of the joint measurement report may be periodic or non-periodic. For periodic reporting, the reporting period of the joint measurement report may be set based on a beam measurement period indicated by each type of reference signal. Of course, it is not limited to this.

Optionally, the correspondence may include a joint measurement report. The time period relationship of each beam measurement result, or the placement frequency relationship of each beam measurement result in the joint measurement report. For example, the correspondence between the beam measurement results indicated by the at least two types of reference signals is set according to the beam measurement period indicated by the at least two types of reference signals.

For example, the joint measurement report may include only one type of reference signal indication beam measurement result. See the scenario illustrated in FIG. 2, or may include multiple types of reference signal indication beam measurement results. See FIG. 2 And the scene illustrated in Figure 3.

As an example, the reporting period is periodic, and the reporting format may include: a collation of beam measurement results indicated by each type of reference signal in the joint measurement report. Optionally, the ordering rule may be that the user terminal obtains from dedicated signaling from the network side.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the ordering rule includes: a bit arrangement order of beam measurement results indicated by each type of reference signal in the joint measurement report, where the bit arrangement order is used to indicate that each measurement result is in accordance with the The order of the bit resources is arranged.

For example, the beam measurement results indicated by the first type of reference signals are arranged in the first x bits, the beam measurement results indicated by the second type of reference signals are sequentially arranged by y bits, and the beam measurement results indicated by the third type of reference signals are sequentially arranged.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, optionally, the collation includes: a joint coding form of the beam measurement results indicated by the at least two types of reference signals in the joint measurement report, and of course, it is also understood that in the embodiment of the present disclosure The joint coding form is not specifically limited.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the reporting period is aperiodic, and the reporting format includes: a unified format of beam measurement results indicated by at least two types of reference signals, and it is also understood that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, Specifically define a uniform format.

For example, the network side configures the reporting configuration of the user terminal by using an RRC message, where at least the synchronization signal block signal and the relevant configuration information of the beam indicated by the CSI-RS are included, and the beam measurement period indicated by the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS may be non- Periodic. The network side configuration reports the beam measurement result of the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS indication in the form of a joint report, and the beam measurement result indicated by the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS adopts the unified reporting content and the reporting format.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, optionally, the content of the joint measurement report includes one or more of the following: a beam identifier indicated by each type of reference signal; a beam measurement result indicated by each type of reference signal (eg, Beam layer 1 measurement); and beam time-frequency resources indicated by each type of reference signal.

For example, the correspondence between the beam measurement results indicated by the at least two types of reference signals is set according to any one of the beam measurement periods indicated by the at least two types of reference signals.

For example, the joint measurement report may include only one type of reference beam signal indication, or may include multiple types of reference signal indication beam measurements.

Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the beam measurement period indicated by the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS is different. For example, the beam measurement period indicated by the configuration synchronization signal block signal is NS, and the beam measurement period indicated by the CSI-RS is NC, NS. Not the same as NC.

In FIG. 2, the beam measurement result indicated by one synchronization signal block signal corresponds to the beam measurement result indicated by the four CSI-RSs, and the reporting period of the joint measurement report may be combined according to the measurement period of the beam indicated by the CSI-RS. The reporting format may be the beam measurement result reported by the CSI-RS in the first three times, and the beam measurement result indicated by the CSI-RS in the fourth joint reporting.

That is, the correspondence between the beam measurement result indicated by the CSI-RS and the beam measurement result indicated by the synchronization signal block signal in the first three joint measurement reports is 1:0, and the beam measurement indicated by the CSI-RS in the fourth joint measurement report The correspondence between the result and the beam measurement result indicated by the sync signal block signal is 1:1.

In FIG. 3, the beam measurement result indicated by one synchronization signal block signal corresponds to the beam measurement result indicated by the four CSI-RSs, and the reporting period of the joint measurement report may be set according to the measurement period of the beam indicated by the synchronization signal block signal, and jointly The reporting format of the measurement report may be a beam measurement result that carries the synchronization signal block signal and the CSI-RS indication for each report.

That is, the correspondence between the beam measurement result indicated by the CSI-RS in the joint measurement report and the beam measurement result indicated by the synchronization signal block signal is 4:1.
