下面结合附图,通过一些实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的准共址参数的确定方法、装置及终端进行详细地说明。The method, device and terminal for determining quasi-co-location parameters provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through some embodiments and application scenarios.
如图2所示,本申请实施例提供了一种准共址参数的确定方法,该方法的执行主体为终端,换言之,该方法可以由安装在终端的软件或硬件来执行。所述方法包括以下步骤。As shown in Figure 2, this embodiment of the present application provides a method for determining quasi-co-location parameters. The execution subject of this method is a terminal. In other words, this method can be executed by software or hardware installed on the terminal. The method includes the following steps.
S210、终端发送X个物理随机接入信道PRACH,并获取第一监听时机;其中,所述第一监听时机位于所述X个PRACH中Y个PRACH所对应的监听窗口的重叠时间,所述X和Y为大于1的正整数。S210. The terminal sends X physical random access channels PRACH, and obtains the first listening opportunity; wherein the first listening opportunity is located at the overlapping time of the listening windows corresponding to Y PRACHs among the X PRACHs, and the X and Y is a positive integer greater than 1.
终端进行PRACH发送后,会开启监听窗口,所述监听窗口用于监听网络侧设备发送的与RAR相关的下行信道,例如用于调度所述RAR的PDCCH、用于传输所述RAR的物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)、使用临时小区无线网络临时标识(Temporary Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,TC-RNTI)加扰的PDCCH等,所述监听窗口也可以称为随机接入响应窗口(RAR window),为了简便起见,在下面的实施例中均以RAR window作为监听窗口为例进行举例说明。每个RAR window内可以包含多个监听时机(monitoring occasion),所述终端在各监听时机内监听网络侧设备 发送的与RAR相关的下行信道。After the terminal sends the PRACH, it will open a listening window.

The spatial transmission filter of Msg3 corresponds to the beam used to receive the downlink reference signal, so the same spatial filter is used for transmission.
所述第三参考信号可以与上述实施例中第一参考信号相同,在一种实施方式中,所述第三参考信号可以为进行第一下行接收进使用的准共址参数对应的第一参考信号,具体为以下之一:The third reference signal may be the same as the first reference signal in the above embodiment. In one implementation, the third reference signal may be the first reference signal corresponding to the quasi-colocation parameter used for the first downlink reception. Reference signal, specifically one of the following:
所述Y个PRACH关联的L个下行参考信号之一,所述L小于或等于Y的正整数,例如所述L个下行参考信号中索引值最大或最小的下行参考信号或者,所述Y个PRACH 中最早或最晚发送的PRACH关联的下行参考信号;One of the L downlink reference signals associated with the Y PRACHs, and the L is less than or equal to a positive integer of Y, for example, the downlink reference signal with the largest or smallest index value among the L downlink reference signals or, the Y PRACH The earliest or latest PRACH-associated downlink reference signal sent;
第一下行参考信号,所述第一下行参考信号为由网络侧设备配置的下行参考信号;A first downlink reference signal, the first downlink reference signal is a downlink reference signal configured by the network side device;
第二下行参考信号,所述第二下行参考信号为由所述终端确定的下行参考信号。A second downlink reference signal, the second downlink reference signal is a downlink reference signal determined by the terminal.
在另一种实施方式中,所述第三参考信号可以根据接收到的第一PDCCH来确定,所述第三参考信号为以下之一:In another implementation manner, the third reference signal may be determined according to the received first PDCCH, and the third reference signal is one of the following:
与接收到的第一PDCCH对应的RA-RNTI所对应的随机接收时机RO所关联的下行参考信号。如上所述,终端在接收第一PDCCH时使用的波束可能与网络侧设备实际发送所述第一PDCCH使用的波束不同,而终端可以根据RA-RNTI确定所述第一PDCCH实际响应的PRACH,从而确定第一PDCCH使用的波束,即与所述第一PDCCH准共址的下行参考信号。为此,终端在发送Msg3时,可以使用与所述第一PDCCH准共址的下行参考信号对应的准共址参数对应的发送波束进行传输,即使用与所述第一PDCCH准共址的下行参考信号对应的空间发送滤波器进行传输。The downlink reference signal associated with the random reception opportunity RO corresponding to the RA-RNTI corresponding to the received first PDCCH. As mentioned above, the beam used by the terminal when receiving the first PDCCH may be different from the beam used by the network side device to actually send the first PDCCH, and the terminal can determine the PRACH that the first PDCCH actually responds to based on the RA-RNTI, thereby Determine the beam used by the first PDCCH, that is, the downlink reference signal that is quasi-co-located with the first PDCCH. To this end, when transmitting Msg3, the terminal may use a transmit beam corresponding to a quasi-colocated downlink reference signal corresponding to the first PDCCH to transmit, that is, use a downlink quasi-colocated with the first PDCCH to transmit. The spatial transmission filter corresponding to the reference signal is transmitted.
与接收到的第一PDSCH指示的前导码(Preamble)所关联的下行参考信号。由于不同的RO有可能对应相同的RA-RNTI,而该RO可能同时对应关联两个不同下行参考信号,不同的下行参考信号关联的前导码标识(Preamble ID)是不同的。即两个RO上可能发送的PRACH关联不同的下行参考信号,但是第一PDCCH是相同的RA-RNTI。此时终端无法仅根据RA-RNTI确定与所述第一PDCCH准共址的下行参考信号。终端可以进一步根据第一PDSCH中的PRACH preamble ID信息,确定该PRACH关联的下行参考信号。从而在进行Msg3传输时,使用和该下行参考信号的准共址参数对应的发送波束进行传输,即使用该下行参考信号对应的空间发送滤波器进行传输。The downlink reference signal associated with the received preamble indicated by the first PDSCH. Since different ROs may correspond to the same RA-RNTI, and the RO may be associated with two different downlink reference signals at the same time, the preamble IDs associated with different downlink reference signals are different. That is, the PRACHs sent on the two ROs may be associated with different downlink reference signals, but the first PDCCH is the same RA-RNTI. At this time, the terminal cannot determine the downlink reference signal that is quasi-co-located with the first PDCCH based only on the RA-RNTI. The terminal may further determine the downlink reference signal associated with the PRACH based on the PRACH preamble ID information in the first PDSCH. Therefore, when Msg3 is transmitted, the transmission beam corresponding to the quasi-co-location parameter of the downlink reference signal is used for transmission, that is, the spatial transmission filter corresponding to the downlink reference signal is used for transmission.
可选地,所述方法还包括:使用所述第三参考信号对应的准共址参数接收消息4(Msg4)。Optionally, the method further includes: receiving message 4 (Msg4) using the quasi-co-location parameter corresponding to the third reference signal.
由上述实施例的技术方案可知,本申请实施例通过所述终端根据所述第一下行接收的指示使用第三参考信号对应的准共址参数发送Msg3,从而使终端在发送Msg3时可以使用正确的波束。It can be known from the technical solutions of the above embodiments that in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal uses the quasi-co-location parameter corresponding to the third reference signal to send Msg3 according to the first downlink received instruction, so that the terminal can use Correct beam.
基于上述实施例,可选地,在所述终端发送X个PRACH之前,所述方法还包括:Based on the above embodiment, optionally, before the terminal sends X PRACHs, the method further includes:
根据所述监听窗口的长度确定所述X的值和与每个PRACH对应的参考信号分组,以使所述X个PRACH对应的监听窗口不存在重叠。The value of X and the reference signal group corresponding to each PRACH are determined according to the length of the listening window, so that there is no overlap in the listening windows corresponding to the X PRACHs.
为了简便起见,在下面的实施例中均以SSB作为参考信号为例进行举例说明。For the sake of simplicity, in the following embodiments, SSB is used as an example as a reference signal for illustration.
如图4所示,所述RAR window的开启时间点是在发送PRACH后第一个资源控制集(Control resource set,CORESET)CORESET#0所在时隙的开始边界,并且各个SSB和各RO的长度相同。As shown in Figure 4, the opening time point of the RAR window is the starting boundary of the time slot where the first resource control set (Control resource set, CORESET) CORESET #0 is located after sending PRACH, and the length of each SSB and each RO same.
在上行时隙上会配置多个RO,RO和实际发送的SSB之间存在关联关系。一个RO上可能关联多个SSB,也可以多个SSB关联1个RO。Multiple ROs will be configured on the uplink time slot, and there is an association between ROs and the actual sent SSB. One RO may be associated with multiple SSBs, or multiple SSBs may be associated with one RO.
终端在接收到SSB,获取小区同步和系统消息后,可以确定小区内SSB数量和RO 的配置,并确定SSB分组。具体包括:After receiving SSB and obtaining cell synchronization and system information, the terminal can determine the number of SSBs and RO in the cell. configuration and determine the SSB grouping. Specifically include:
将与相同RAR window的RO分为一组,如图4所示,将同一上行时隙内的RO#0~RO#3分为一组。Group ROs with the same RAR window into one group, as shown in Figure 4, group RO#0~RO#3 in the same uplink time slot into one group.
根据RO与SSB的关联关系,确定与各RO分组内相关联的SSB分组,如图4所示,前一个RO分组关联与SSB#0~SSB#3,后一个RO分关联于SSB#4~SSB#7。According to the association between RO and SSB, determine the SSB group associated with each RO group. As shown in Figure 4, the previous RO group is associated with SSB#0~SSB#3, and the latter RO group is associated with SSB#4~ SSB#7.
终端可以在SSB分组内选择一个SSB,并在对应的RO上发送PRACH。The terminal can select an SSB within the SSB group and send PRACH on the corresponding RO.
从SSB分组内选择一个SSB的方式可以多种多样,例如可以根据相关进行门限选择,以SSB的信号质量为例,从SSB分组内选择SSB的信号质量超过预定义或预配置的门限的SSB,若有多个SSB的信号质量超过门限,则可以按照所述终端实现选择其中一个SSB,或者选择信号质量最好的SSB;若所述SSB分组内的所有SSB的信号质量均低于预定义或预配置的门限,则可以随机选择一个SSB,或者不发送PRACH。所述信号质量可以为基于同步信号的参考信号接收功率(Synchronization Signal based Reference Signal Received Power,SS-RSRP)。There are many ways to select an SSB from an SSB group. For example, threshold selection can be based on correlation. Taking the signal quality of an SSB as an example, select an SSB from an SSB group whose signal quality exceeds a predefined or preconfigured threshold. If the signal quality of multiple SSBs exceeds the threshold, one of the SSBs can be selected according to the terminal implementation, or the SSB with the best signal quality can be selected; if the signal quality of all SSBs in the SSB group is lower than the predefined or Preconfigured threshold, you can randomly select an SSB, or not send PRACH. The signal quality may be Synchronization Signal based Reference Signal Received Power (SS-RSRP).
若在RAR window的开启时间内,存在上行时隙并且存在RO,则所述RO对应的SSB分组不能用于发送PRACH。If there is an uplink time slot and an RO during the opening time of the RAR window, the SSB packet corresponding to the RO cannot be used to send PRACH.
终端可以根据上述规则在一个SSB到RO的关联周期(association period)或者关联模式周期(association pattern period)内选择多个RO,并保证各RO对应的RAR window不互相重叠。The terminal can select multiple ROs within an SSB to RO association period (association period) or association pattern period (association pattern period) according to the above rules, and ensure that the RAR windows corresponding to each RO do not overlap with each other.
终端根据各个SSB的信号质量从SSB分组中选择一个SSB来执行对应的PRACH流程,可以根据首个选择的SSB以及RAR window,在保证RAR window不互相重叠的条件下可以确定后续的N个SSB,N的数量不大于关联周期/RAR window长度或者不大于关联模式周期/RAR window长度。The terminal selects an SSB from the SSB group to execute the corresponding PRACH process based on the signal quality of each SSB. It can determine the subsequent N SSBs based on the first selected SSB and RAR window, while ensuring that the RAR windows do not overlap each other. The number of N is not greater than the association period/RAR window length or is not greater than the association mode period/RAR window length.
