Abstract
Description
NRでは、送信設定指示状態(Transmission Configuration Indication state(TCI状態))に基づいて、信号及びチャネルの少なくとも一方(信号/チャネルと表現する)のUEにおける受信処理(例えば、受信、デマッピング、復調、復号の少なくとも1つ)、送信処理(例えば、送信、マッピング、プリコーディング、変調、符号化の少なくとも1つ)を制御することが検討されている。
・QCLタイプA(QCL-A):ドップラーシフト、ドップラースプレッド、平均遅延及び遅延スプレッド、
・QCLタイプB(QCL-B):ドップラーシフト及びドップラースプレッド、
・QCLタイプC(QCL-C):ドップラーシフト及び平均遅延、
・QCLタイプD(QCL-D):空間受信パラメータ。
PDCCH(又はPDCCHに関連するDMRSアンテナポート)と、あるRSとの、QCLに関する情報は、PDCCHのためのTCI状態などと呼ばれてもよい。
PDSCH(又はPDSCHに関連するDMRSアンテナポート)と、あるDL-RSとの、QCLに関する情報は、PDSCHのためのTCI状態などと呼ばれてもよい。
UEは、上位レイヤシグナリング(例えば、Radio Resource Control(RRC)シグナリング)によって、PUCCH送信に用いられるパラメータ(PUCCH設定情報、PUCCH-Config)を設定されてもよい。PUCCH設定情報は、キャリア(セル、コンポーネントキャリア(Component Carrier(CC))ともいう)内の部分的な帯域(例えば、上り帯域幅部分(Bandwidth Part(BWP)))毎に設定されてもよい。
UEは、測定用参照信号(例えば、サウンディング参照信号(Sounding Reference Signal(SRS)))の送信に用いられる情報(SRS設定情報、例えば、RRC制御要素の「SRS-Config」内のパラメータ)を受信してもよい。
既存システム(例えば、Rel.15)では、複数のセルが設定される場合、セル毎に個別のMAC CEを利用して各セルに対するビームの指示(beam indication)を行う必要がある。例えば、基地局は、各セルのTCI状態又はビームインデックスを更新する場合、セル毎に個別のMAC CEを利用してUEに通知する。なお、本明細書において、更新、アップデート、アクティベート、スイッチ、は互いに読み替えられてもよい。
MAC CEを利用してアクティブとなるTCI状態の更新が指示されたUEは、更新後のTCI状態を認識しているか又は認識していないかに基づいて、更新後のTCI状態の適用(例えば、更新後のTCI状態を適用するタイミング等)を制御してもよい。
<既知条件>
・ターゲットTCI状態に対するL1-RSRP測定報告に用いられるRSリソースの最後の送信から、アクティブTCI状態切り替えの完了までの、期間(TCI切り替え期間、TCI switching period)中において、L1-RSRP測定用の当該RSリソースは、ターゲットTCI状態内のRS、又はターゲットTCI状態にQCLされたRSである。
・TCI切り替え期間中において、TCI状態切り替えコマンドが、ビームの報告又は測定のための当該RSリソースの最後の送信から、1280ms以内に受信される。
・TCI切り替え期間中において、TCI状態切り替えコマンドの前に、UEが、ターゲットTCI状態に対する少なくとも1つのL1-RSRP報告を送信した。
・TCI切り替え期間中において、ターゲットTCI状態が検出可能状態(detectable)にある。
・TCI切り替え期間中において、ターゲットTCI状態に関連付けられたSSBが検出可能な状態にある。
・TCI切り替え期間中において、ターゲットTCI状態のsignal-to-noise ratio(SNR)が-3dB以上である。
第1の態様では、複数のセルのTCI状態の更新を1つ(又は、共通)の情報に基づいて制御する場合の一例について説明する。
UEは、TCI状態(例えば、あるセルのTCI状態)の更新がMAC CEで指示された場合、適用セルリストに含まれる1以上のセルのTCI状態を同じタイミング(又は、同じタイムライン)で更新するように制御してもよい。つまり、UEは、あるセルに対してTCI状態の更新が指示された場合、当該セルにおけるTCI状態の更新と適用セルリストに含まれる他のセルにおけるTCI状態の更新を同じタイミングで行ってもよい(図3参照)。
UEは、TCI状態(例えば、あるセルのTCI状態)の更新がMAC CEで指示された場合、適用セルリストに含まれる1以上のセルのTCI状態を別々のタイミング(又は、異なるタイムライン)で更新するように制御してもよい。つまり、UEは、あるセルに対してTCI状態の更新が指示された場合、当該セルにおけるTCI状態の更新と適用セルリストに含まれる他のセルにおけるTCI状態の更新を異なるタイミングで行ってもよい(図5参照)。
UEは、TCI状態(例えば、あるセルのTCI状態)の更新がMAC CEで指示された場合、適用セルリストに含まれるTCI状態における更新後のTCI状態の認識状況(known/unknown)に基づいて、オフセットの適用を制御してもよい。
上記第1の態様では、オフセットがknown/unknownに関連づいて設定される場合を示したが、オフセットの値はこれに限られない。オフセットは、RRCパラメータによって設定されてもよいし、仕様に規定されてもよいし、UE能力情報によって報告される値であってもよい。オフセットは、次のオフセット1~5のいずれかであってもよい。
0(ゼロ)。TCI状態の更新は、MAC CEに対するACK送信の所定期間(例えば、3ms)後であってもよい。例えば、オフセット0は、更新後のTCI状態(ターゲットTCI状態)がknownである場合のTCI状態の切り替えタイミングとして利用されてもよい(第1の態様における更新タイミング制御2、3参照)。
x[ms]又はx[スロット]。xは、仕様によって規定されてもよいし、RRCパラメータによって設定されてもよい。xは、サブキャリア間隔(SCS)又はスロット長に依存してよい。また、xは、絶対時間で規定されてもよいし、所定の時間単位(例えば、シンボル、サブスロット、サブフレーム、スロット及びフレームの少なくとも一つ)の倍数で規定されてもよい。
MAC CEに基づいて空間関係を切り替えるためのオフセット。オフセットは、仕様に規定されてもよいし、RRCパラメータによって設定されてもよい。例えば、ターゲットTCI状態が既知である場合、オフセットは、TOk*(Tfirst-SSB+TSSB-proc)であってもよい。ターゲットTCI状態が未知である場合、オフセットは、TL1-RSRP+TOuk*(Tfirst-SSB+TSSB-proc)であってもよい。
ターゲットTCI状態が未知(unknown)である場合のTCI状態切り替えに必要な時間。例えば、オフセットは、L1-RSRP測定用の時間TL1-RSRPに基づく時間であってもよいし、TL1-RSRP+TOuk*(Tfirst-SSB+TSSB-proc)であってもよい。
ターゲットTCI状態が未知から既知になるまでの時間。例えば、オフセットは、L1-RSRP測定用の時間TL1-RSRPに基づく時間であってもよいし、TL1-RSRPであってもよい。
上記第1の態様又は第2の態様のオフセットは、適用されるチャネル/信号(又は、チャネルタイプ/信号タイプ、チャネル種別/信号種別)毎に異なっていてもよい。チャネル/信号は、PDCCH、PDSCH、PUCCH、SRSの少なくとも一つであってもよい。
オフセットは、ターゲットTCI状態が既知(known)であるか未知(unknown)であるかに対して、次の関係1、2のいずれかを有していてもよい。
オフセットは、ターゲットTCI状態が既知であるか未知であるかに依存する。ターゲットTCI状態が既知である場合と、ターゲットTCI状態が未知である場合との間において、異なるオフセットが用いられてもよい。
オフセットは、ターゲットTCI状態が既知であるか未知であるかに依存しない。ターゲットTCI状態が既知である場合と、ターゲットTCI状態が未知である場合との間において、同じオフセットが用いられてもよい。UEは、未知のTCI状態に基づいて受信ビーム/送信ビームを決定してもよい(QCLタイプDのRSを決定/測定してもよい)。
UEは、オフセットに対応する期間において、次の動作1、2のいずれかを行ってもよい。オフセットに対応する期間は、MAC CEに対するACK送信の所定期間(例えば、3ms)後から開始し、オフセットの長さを有してもよい。
UEは、更新前の空間関係を適用/想定して、DLチャネル/信号/参照信号の受信と、ULチャネル/信号、参照信号の送信を行ってもよい。
UEは、更新後の空間関係を適用/想定して、DLチャネル/信号/参照信号の受信と、ULチャネル/信号、参照信号の送信を行ってもよい。この場合、オフセットに対応する期間において、性能要件(performance requirement)が緩和されてもよい。例えば、性能要件は、所要SNR、所要誤り率、の少なくとも1つによって規定されてもよい。
また、第1の態様で示したTCI状態の更新制御は、更新後のTCI状態(ターゲットTCI状態)がknownの場合に限定して適用されてもよい。更新後のTCI状態がunknownである場合、所定条件を満たして更新後のTCI状態がknownになってから、オフセットの適用(例えば、カウント)を開始してもよい。
