Description

一种基站、用户终端及载波调度指示方法
本申请要求于2015年02月10日提交中国专利局、申请号为201510069646.X、发明名称为“一种基站、用户终端及载波调度指示方法”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种基站、用户终端及载波调度指示方法。
背景技术
在长期演进(英文:Long Term Evolution,简称:LTE)系统的演进过程中,为了提升系统的频谱带宽,第三代合作伙伴计划(英文:Third Generation Partnership Project,简称:3GPP)提出了载波聚合技术,其中,载波聚合技术是将多个连续的或者不连续的载波聚合到一起,形成一个更宽的频谱。当基站配置了多个载波时,可以通过配置的这多个载波,向用户终端(英文:User Equipment,简称:UE)同时发送数据。在基站通过配置载波(基站配置的载波)中的调度载波(基站用来传输数据的载波)向UE发送数据时,基站需通过每个调度载波向UE发送下行控制信息(英文:Downlink Control Information,简称:DCI),以指示UE自身在该调度载波上占用的物理资源块、采用的调制编码方式等信息,以便UE根据接收到的DCI进行数据的接收。
在现有技术中,为了使UE能够获知基站的所有配置载波的调度情况,基站可以通过在向UE发送的DCI中新增下行分配指示(英文:Downlink Assignment Indication,简称:DAI)2字段,以指示除当前调度载波(传输DCI的载波)外的其它配置载波的调度情况,其中,DAI2字段的比特数是根据基站的配置载波数确定的,在数值上等于基站的配置载波数减1。
现有技术中至少存在如下问题,由于现有技术中的DAI2字段必须能够指示除当前调度载波外的其它所有配置载波的调度情况,因此DAI2字段的比特数在数值上等于基站的配置载波数减1,这样,当基站的配置载波的数量较多时,DAI2字段包含的比特数便会越多,使得DCI较长,从而导致信令开销较大。

本发明实施例提供的UE,接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波 发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。由于在本发明中,UE接收到的CAI字段指示的是基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
并且,基于本发明实施例提供的调度载波指示,UE可以根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数,由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术中的UE根据所有配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数相比,降低了HARQ信息的比特数,从而降低了信令开销。
本发明另一实施例提供一种载波调度指示方法,如图4所示,该方法可以包括:
S301、基站根据自身配置的所有配置载波的调度情况,生成当前调度载波的CAI字段。
其中,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段用于指示所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M,M表示从第一个配置载波到当前调度载波,所述当前调度载波是第M个被调度的载波,M为大于等于1的整数。示例性的,当当前调度载波的累计索引值为5时,表示从第一个配置载波开始,该当前调度载波是第5个被调度的载波。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波 的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
S302、基站将CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
其中,在基站根据自身配置的所有配置载波的调度情况生成当前调度载波的CAI字段后,基站将生成的CAI字段携带在DCI中,并通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
本发明实施例提供的载波调度指示方法,在基站根据自身配置的所有配置载波的调度情况生成当前调度载波的CAI字段后,将生成的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。由于在本发明中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的CAI字段指示的是所有调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
进一步的,在S301中,当基站生成的当前调度载波的CAI字段用于指示所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M时,在第一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的具体生成过程为(即S301具体的可以为):基站获取所有配置载波中调度载波的总数,并获取当前调度载波的累计索引值M,根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引M和预设的第二映射关系,获取第二编码,然后将第一编码和第二编码组合生成CAI字段。其中,第一映射关系用于指示调度载波的总数对应的第一编码,第二映射关系用于指示当前调度载 波的累计索引M对应的所述第二编码。
示例性的,第一编码可以是对所有配置载波中调度载波的总数进行二进制编码得到的,同样的,第二编码可以是对当前调度载波的累计索引值M进行二进制编码得到的。
其中,基站根据第一编码和第二编码组合生成的CAI字段的比特数为

N为所有配置载波的总数,
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000063
表示对log2N向上取整所得到的数值。在一种可能的实现方式中,基站获取到的第一编码位于CAI字段的前

个比特,获取到的第二编码位于CAI字段的前

个比特。
进一步的,为了使得在基站的配置载波数量较多的情况下,尽量减小CAI字段的长度,在第二种可能的实现方式中,在基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引M和预设的第二映射关系,获取第二编码之前,基站可以先判断
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000068
是否大于2,若基站确定
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000069
不大于2,则基站在获取到所有配置载波中调度载波的总数并获取到当前调度载波的累计索引值M之后,根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引M和预设的第二映射关系,获取第二编码,然后将第一编码与第二编码组合生成CAI字段;若基站确定
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000070
大于2,则基站在获取到所有配置载波中调度载波的总数并获取到当前调度载波的累计索引值M之后,根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引M和预设的第三映射关系,获取第三编码,然后将第一编码和第三编码组合生成CAI字段。第三映射关系用于指示当前调度载波的累计索引M对应的第三编码,第三编码的比特数小于第二编码的比特数。
可选地,基站根据第一编码和第三编码组合生成的CAI字段的比特数为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000071
a为大于等于2,且小于
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000072
的整数。优选的, 该CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000073
在一种可能的实现方式中,基站获取到的第一编码位于CAI字段的前

Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000075
个比特,获取到的第三编码位于CAI字段的前a个比特。所述第三编码具体的编码方式可以参见下文图7所述的本发明的实施方式。
进一步的,当基站生成的当前调度载波的CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号时,CAI字段的具体生成过程,即S301具体的可以为:基站获取当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,然后根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系,生成CAI字段。
进一步的,在第一种可能的实现方式中,第四映射关系用于指示前一个调度载波的编号对应的第四编码,以及后一个调度载波的编号对应的第五编码。也就是说,基站可以对前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号进行独立编码得到当前调度载波的CAI字段,这样,基站根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系,生成CAI字段的具体过程可以为:基站根据前一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第四编码,并根据后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第五编码,然后将获取到的第四编码和第五编码组合生成CAI字段。
示例性的,第四编码可以是对所述前一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的,同样的,第五编码可以是对所述后一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的。
其中,该CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000076
在一种可能的实现方式中,基站获取到的第四编码位于CAI字段的前

个比特,第五编码位于CAI字段的前
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000080
个比特。
进一步的,为了能够在基站的配置载波数量较多的情况下,尽可能的减小CAI字段的长度,在第二种可能的实现方式中,第四映射关系用于指示前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号进行联合编码后对应的第六编码;第六编码的比特数小于第四编码与第五编码的比特数之和。也就是说,基站可以对前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号进行联合编码得到当前调度载波的CAI字段,这样,基站根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系,生成CAI字段的具体过程可以为:基站根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第六编码,并将第六编码作为CAI字段。
此时,该CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000081
所述第六编码具体的编码方式可以参见下文图9所述的本发明的实施方式。
本发明另一实施例提供的一种载波调度指示方法,如图5所示,该方法可以包括:
S401、UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI。
其中,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M,M表示从第一个配置载波到当前调度载波,当前调度载波是第M个被调度的载波,M为大于等于1的整数。在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
S402、UE获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。
其中,在UE接收到基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI之后,可以获取接收到的所有DCI中的CAI字段,以便获取基站配置的所有配置载波的调度情况。
本发明实施例提供的载波调度指示方法,UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI 字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。由于在本发明中,UE接收到的CAI字段指示的是基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
在UE获取到DCI中的CAI字段,获知所有配置载波的调度情况之后,UE便可以根据DCI中的CAI字段进行数据的接收。为了保证数据传输的可靠性,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,因此,进一步的,在执行S402之后,即在UE获取到DCI中的CAI字段之后,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,HARQ信息用于反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,HARQ信息的比特数等于反馈每个调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数之和。
进一步的,当UE在S401中接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M时,在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段包括第一编码和第二编码。
其中,第一编码为基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系获得的编码,第一映射关系用于指示调度载波的总数对应的第一编码,第二编码为基站根据M和预设的第二映射关系获得的编码,第二映射关系用于指示M对应的第二编码。
示例性的,第一编码可以是对所有配置载波中调度载波的总数 进行二进制编码得到的,同样的,第二编码可以是对当前调度载波的累计索引值M进行二进制编码得到的。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE接收到的DCI中携带的CAI字段包括第一编码和第三编码。
其中,第一编码为基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系获得的编码,第一映射关系用于指示调度载波的总数对应的第一编码,第三编码为基站根据M和预设的第三映射关系获得的编码,第三映射关系用于指示M对应的所述第三编码,其中所述第三编码的比特数小于所述第二编码的比特数。
进一步的,当UE在S401中接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号时,在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段包括第四编码和第五编码。
其中,第四编码为基站根据前一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系获得的编码,第五编码为基站根据后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系获得的编码,第四映射关系用于指示前一个调度载波的编号对应的第四编码,以及后一个调度载波的编号对应的第五编码。
示例性的,第四编码可以是对所述前一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的,同样的,第五编码可以是对所述后一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段为第六编码。
其中,第六编码为基站根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系获得的编码,第四映射关系用于指示所述前一个调度载波的编号、所述后一个调度载波的编号进行联合编码后对应的第六编码。
此时,该CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000082
所述第六编码具体的编码方式可以参见下文图9所述的本发明的实施方式。
进一步的,在一种可能的实现方式中,当UE在S401中接收的DCI中携带的CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M时,UE向基站发送HARQ信息,具体的可以为:UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,然后根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,当CAI字段包括第一编码和第二编码时,UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,UE根据第一映射关系和第一编码,获取调度载波的总数,并根据第二映射关系和第二编码,获取M;当CAI字段包括第一编码和第三编码时,UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,根据第一映射关系和第一编码,获取调度载波的总数,并根据第三映射关系和第三编码,获取M。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,当CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号时,UE向基站发送HARQ信息,具体的可以为:UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,并根据至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,确定调度载波的总数,然后根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,当CAI字段包括第四编码和第五编码时,UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,UE根据第四编码和第四映射关系,获取前一个调度载波的编号,并根据第五编码和第四映射关系,获取后一个调度载波的编号;当CAI字段为 第六编码时,UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,UE根据第六编码和第四映射关系,获取前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
可选的,本发明中的HARQ信息的比特数等于反馈每个调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数之和,即本发明中的HARQ信息的比特数是基于调度载波的总数确定出的,而现有技术中的UE向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数是基于配置载波的总数确定出的,由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的调度载波的总数,因此,基于本发明实施例提供的调度载波指示,UE可以根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数,比现有技术中的根据基站的配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数少,这样,便降低了UE的反馈开销。
本发明另一实施例提供一种载波调度指示方法,为了能够让UE获知基站进行的载波调度,基站可以在向UE发送的DCI中携带CAI字段,以便UE根据接收到的所有DCI中携带的CAI字段,获知基站进行的载波调度。为了便于本领域技术人员的理解,在本发明实施例中,除了第四种实施方式,以基站的所有配置载波的总数等于16,且基站调度的载波为CC0、CC2和CC5为例,并结合不同的实施方式,对本发明的具体实施过程进行详细描述,具体如下:
在第一种实施方式中,如图6所示,该方法可以包括:
S501、基站获取所有配置载波中调度载波的总数,并获取当前调度载波的累计索引值M。
其中,M表示从第一个配置载波到当前调度载波,当前调度载波是第M个被调度的载波。示例性的,基站调度的载波为CC0、CC2和CC5,因此,基站获取到的调度载波的总数为3,当前调度载波CC0的累计索引值为1,当前调度载波CC2的累计索引值为2,当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值为3。
S502、基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取 第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引值M和预设的第二映射关系,获取第二编码。
其中,第一映射关系用于指示调度载波的总数对应的第一编码,第二映射关系用于指示M对应的所述第二编码。
示例性的,当基站的配置载波的数量等于16时,基站中预设的第一映射关系可以如表1所示,预设的第二映射关系可以如表2所示,针对CC0来说,基站根据获取到的调度载波的总数(所述的调度载波的总数等于3),查询表1,获取第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC0的累计索引值(所述CC0的累计索引值等于1),查询表2,获取第二编码为0000;针对CC2来说,基站获取到的第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC2的累计索引值(所述CC2的累计索引值等于2),查询表2,获取第二编码为0001;针对CC5来说,基站获取到的第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值(所述CC5的累计索引值等于3),查询表2,获取第二编码为0010。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,针对每个当前调度载波,基站可以只获取一次第一编码,然后分别获取每个当前调度载波的第二编码即可。

需要说明的是,本发明实施例表1、表2中包含的数值只是一种示例,本发明实施例在此并未对表1中的与调度载波的总数对应的第一编码的具体取值,也即编码方式,进行限制,以及表2中的与当前调度载波的累计索引值对应的第二编码的具体取值,也即编码方式,进行限制,与调度载波的总数对应的第一编码和与当前调度载波的累计索引值对应的第二编码的具体取值可以根据实际场景的需要进行相应的设置。
S503、基站将第一编码和第二编码组合生成CAI字段。
其中,CAI字段用于指示所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,根据S502中的例子,由于基站的所有配置载波的总数等于16,CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000083
这样,基站生成的CAI字段的比特数为8。并且,生成的CAI字段中,在 第一种可能的实现方式中,第一编码位于CAI字段的前4个比特,第二编码位于CAI字段的后4个比特,在第二种可能的实现方式中,第一编码位于CAI字段的后4个比特,第二编码位于CAI字段的前4个比特。
示例性的,针对CC0来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC0的CAI字段为00100000,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC0的CAI字段为00000010;针对CC2来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC2的CAI字段为00100001,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC2的CAI字段为00010010;针对CC5来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC5的CAI字段为00100010,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC5的CAI字段为00100010。
S504、基站将CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
其中,基站可以将生成的CC0的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过CC0发送至UE,可以将生成的CC2的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过CC2发送至UE,可以将生成的CC5的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过CC5发送至UE。
S505、UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。
其中,CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M,包括第一编码和第二编码。根据本发明实施例的示例,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第一编码,后4个比特为第二编码。在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第二编码,后4个比特为第一编码。
在UE通过所述CC0、CC2和CC5接收到基站发送的DCI,并获取到每个DCI中的CAI字段,便可结合每个CAI字段中的信息获 知所有配置载波的调度情况。之后,UE便可以根据DCI进行数据的接收,可选地,为了保证数据传输的可靠性,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,因此,在S505之后,该方法还可以包括S506-S507。
S506、UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M。
其中,S506具体的可以为:针对获得的每个CAI字段,UE根据第一映射关系和第一编码,获取调度载波的总数,并根据第二映射关系和第二编码,获取M。
示例性的,当基站中预设的第一映射关系如表1所示时,UE中预设的第一映射关系也如表1所示,当基站中预设的第二映射关系如表2所示时,UE中预设的第二映射关系也如表2所示。当CAI字段的前4个比特为第一编码,后4个比特为第二编码时,若UE通过CC0接收到的DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为00100000,则UE根据第一编码0010,查询表1,获取调度载波的总数为3,根据第二编码0000,查询表2,获取当前调度载波CC0的累计索引值为1,同样的,若UE通过CC2接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为00100001,则UE可以获取调度载波的总数为3,并获取当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值为2;若UE通过CC5接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为00100010,则UE可以获取调度载波的总数为3,并获取当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值为3。
S507、UE根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,HARQ信息的比特数可以等于反馈每个所述调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数之和。
在获知了调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的累积索引值M后,UE便可结合每个CAI字段中这些信息获知所有配置载波的调度情况,这样再结合实际在每个所述调度载波上发送的数据接收情况,UE就能向基站发送HARQ信息。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,UE可以通过主载波向基站发送HARQ信息,也可以通过主载波和一个辅载波向基站发送HARQ信息,本发明实施例在此对发送HARQ信息采用的载波并不做具体限制,具体的发送HARQ信息采用的载波可以根据实际应用场景的需求进行选择。
示例性的,当用于反馈每个调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数为1时,以“1”表示UE正确接收数据,“0”表示UE未正确接收数据为例,当UE分别通过CC0和CC5接收到DCI时,UE可以获知基站分别通过CC0和CC5进行数据传输,且可以获知基站的调度载波的总数等于3,CC0的累计索引值为1,CC5的累计索引值为3,若UE只正确接收基站通过CC0发送的数据,则UE向基站发送的HARQ信息为100,以指示自身已正确接收基站通过累计索引值为1的当前调度载波发送的数据,未正确接收基站通过累计索引值为2和累计索引值为3的调度载波发送的数据。在基站接收到UE发送的HARQ信息之后,基站可以通过累计索引值为2和累计索引值为3的调度载波重新向UE发送DCI和数据中的至少一种。
从上述可以看出,当用于反馈每个调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数为1时,HARQ信息的比特数与基站的调度载波的总数相等,而现有技术中的UE向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数与基站的配置载波的总数相等,由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的调度载波的总数,因此,基于本发明实施例提供的调度载波指示,UE可以根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数,比现有技术中的根据基站的配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数少,这样,便降低了UE的反馈开销。
进一步的,当基站与UE之间采用时分双工(英文:Time Division Duplexing,简称:TDD)模式进行数据传输时,UE仅可以采用物理上行链路控制信道格式3(英文:Physical Uplink Control Channel  format 3,简称:PUCCH format 3)向基站发送HARQ信息,但是PUCCH format 3支持的最大反馈比特数为20,这样,在基站配置的载波总数较多(即配置载波的总数较多)的情况下,若采用现有技术中根据基站的配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息,那么反馈的HARQ信息的比特数会大于20,导致HARQ信息发送失败,但是若UE根据本发明提供的载波调度指示方法向基站发送HARQ信息时,UE根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数大于20的概率将会大大降低,因此,UE可以采用PUCCH format 3向基站发送HARQ信息。
在第二种实施方式中,如图7所示,该方法可以包括:
S601、基站获取所有配置载波中调度载波的总数,并获取当前调度载波的累计索引值M。
S602、基站判断

是否大于2。
其中,在基站获取到调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M之后,为了能够在基站的配置载波的总数较多的情况下,尽可能的减小CAI字段的比特数,基站可以先判断

S603、基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引值M和预设的第二映射关系,获取第二编码。
其中,第一映射关系用于指示调度载波的总数对应的第一编码,第二映射关系用于指示M对应的所述第二编码。
所述第一编码和所述第二编码的比特数可以为

S604、基站将第一编码和第二编码组合生成CAI字段。
S605、基站根据调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系,获取第一编码,并根据当前调度载波的累计索引值M和预设的第三映射 关系,获取第三编码。
其中,第三映射关系用于指示当前调度载波的累计索引值M对应的第三编码,第三编码的比特数小于第二编码的比特数。在第三映射关系中,由于多个不同的M可以对应同一个第三编码,这样,第三编码的比特数便可以小于第二编码的比特数,即第三编码的比特数小于
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000090
示例性的,当基站的配置载波的数量等于16时,为了能够在基站的配置载波的总数较多的情况下,尽可能的减小CAI字段的比特数,第三编码的比特数可以小于
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000091
也就是说,第三编码的比特数可以为2或3,以第三编码的比特数是2为例,基站中预设的第三映射关系可以如表3所示,从表3可以看出,当M分别等于1、5、9、13时,对应的第三编码均为00,即第三编码的比特数为2,针对CC0来说,基站根据获取到的调度载波的总数(例如,所述调度载波的总数等于3),查询表1,获取第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC0的累计索引值(所述CC0的累计索引值等于1),查询表3,获取第三编码为00;针对CC2来说,基站获取到的第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC2的累计索引值(所述CC2的累计索引值等于2),查询表3,获取第三编码为01;针对CC5来说,基站获取到的第一编码为0010,并根据获取到的当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值(所述CC5的累计索引值等于3),查询表3,获取第三编码为10。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,针对每个当前调度载波,基站可以只获取一次第一编码,然后分别获取每个当前调度载波的第二编码即可。

1或5或9或13 00
2或6或10或14 01
3或7或11或15 10
4或8或12或16 11
需要说明的是,本发明实施例表3中包含的数值只是一种示例,本发明实施例在此并未对表3中的与当前调度载波的累计索引值对应的第三编码的具体取值进行限制,与当前调度载波的累计索引值对应的第二编码的具体取值可以根据实际场景的需要进行相应的设置。
S606、基站将第一编码和第三编码组合生成CAI字段。
其中,CAI字段用于指示所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,根据本发明实施例的示例,由于基站的所有配置载波的总数等于16,根据CAI字段的比特数为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000092
(此处a=2)可以得出,基站生成的CAI字段的比特数为6。并且,生成的CAI字段中,在第一种可能的实现方式中,第一编码位于CAI字段的前4个比特,第三编码位于CAI字段的后2个比特,在第二种可能的实现方式中,第一编码位于CAI字段的后4个比特,第三编码位于CAI字段的前2个比特。
示例性的,针对CC0来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC0的CAI字段为001000,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC0的CAI字段为000010;针对CC2来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC2的CAI字段为001001,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC2的CAI字段为010010;针对CC5来说,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的CC5的CAI字段为001010,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的CC5的CAI字段为100010。
S607、基站将CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
其中,S601-S604、S607的描述可以参照S501-S504的描述,此处不再赘述。
其中,从本发明上一实施例中的S502-S503和本发明实施例中的S605-S606中的描述可以看出,当
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000093
大于2时,基站根据第三映射关系获取到的第三编码,比基站根据第二映射关系获取到的第二编码的比特数少,这样,基站根据第一编码和第三编码组合生成 的CAI字段的比特数比基站根据第一编码和第二编码组合生成的CAI字段的比特数少。即,当
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000094
之于2时,优选的,基站根据第一编码和第三编码组合生成CAI字段,这样,便可以进一步减少DCI的字段长度,从而降低信令开销。
S608、UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。
其中,CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M,可以包括第一编码和第二编码,也可以包括第一编码和第三编码。
当CAI字段包括第一编码和第二编码时,根据S605-S606中的例子,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第一编码,后2个比特为第二编码。在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前2个比特为第二编码,后4个比特为第一编码。
当CAI字段包括第一编码和第三编码时,根据本发明实施例的示例,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第一编码,后2个比特为第三编码。在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前2个比特为第三编码,后4个比特为第一编码。
在UE接收到基站发送的DCI,并获取到DCI中的CAI字段,获知所有配置载波的调度情况之后,UE便可以根据DCI进行数据的接收,可选地,为了保证数据传输的可靠性,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,因此,在S608之后,该方法还包括S609-S610。
S609、UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M。
其中,当CAI字段包括第一编码和第三编码时,S609具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,根据第一映射关系和第一编码,获取调度载波的总数,并根据第三映射关系和第三编码,获取M。
示例性的,当基站中预设的第一映射关系如表1所示时,UE 中预设的第一映射关系也如表1所述,当基站中预设的第三映射关系如表3所示时,UE中预设的第三映射关系也如表3所示。当CAI字段的前4个比特为第一编码,后2个比特为第三编码时,若UE通过CC0接收到的DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为001000,则UE根据第一编码0010,查询表1,获取调度载波的总数为3,根据第三编码00,查询表2,获取到与第三编码00对应的累计索引值为1、5、9以及13,由于携带该CAI字段的DCI是UE通过当前调度载波CC0接收到的,因此,UE可以获取当前调度载波CC0的累计索引值为1。同样的,若UE通过CC2接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为001001时,UE可以获取调度载波的总数为3,并可以获取当前调度载波CC2的累计索引值为2;若UE通过CC5接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为001010时,UE可以获取调度载波的总数为3,并可以获取当前调度载波CC5的累计索引值为3。
需要说明的是,当CAI字段包括第一编码和第二编码时,UE根据CAI字段,确定调度载波的总数,并确定至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M的过程可以参照上述实施例中S506的具体描述,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
S610、UE根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M,向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,HARQ信息的比特数等于反馈每个所述调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数之和。S610的描述可以参照S507的描述,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例S601-S610中具体的描述可以参照S501-S507中的描述,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
在第三种实施方式中,如图8所示,该方法可以包括:
S701、基站获取当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
其中,例如,基站调度的载波为CC0、CC2和CC5,因此,针对CC0来说,前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号 为2;针对CC2来说,前一个调度载波的编号为0,后一个调度载波的编号为5;针对CC5来说,前一个调度载波的编号为2,后一个调度载波的编号为0。
示例性地,当基站的配置载波中仅有一个载波被调度时,例如基站的配置载波的总数为16,且调度的载波为CC5,那么针对CC5来说,前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号也为5。
当基站的配置载波中有两个载波被调度时,例如基站的配置载波的总数为16,且调度的载波为CC5和CC8,那么,针对CC5来说,前一个调度载波的编号为8,后一个调度载波的编号也为8,针对CC8来说,前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号也为5。
S702、基站根据前一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第四编码,并根据后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第五编码。
其中,第四映射关系用于指示前一个调度载波的编号对应的第四编码,以及后一个调度载波的编号对应的第五编码。
示例性的,预设的第四映射关系可以如表4所示,在基站获取到当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号之后,可以根据前一个调度载波的编号,查询表4,获取第四编码,并根据后一个调度载波的编号,查询表4,获取第五编码。

11 1010
12 1011
13 1100
14 1101
15 1110
16 1111
需要说明的是,本发明实施例表4中包含的数值只是一种示例,本发明实施例在此并未对表4中的与调度载波的编号对应的编码的具体取值进行限制,与调度载波的编号对应的编码的具体取值可以根据实际场景的需要进行相应的设置。
当然,第四编码可以是对前一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的,第五编码可以是对后一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到的,这样在基站获取到当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号之后,可以直接对前一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到第四编码,对后一个调度载波的编号进行二进制编码得到第五编码。示例性的,当基站配置的载波数量等于16时,前一个调度载波的编码比特数和后一个调度载波的编码比特数为4。例如,针对当前调度载波CC0来说,基站获取CC0的前一个 调度载波的编号5的二进制编码为0101,后一个调度载波的编号2的二进制编码为0010;针对当前调度载波CC2来说,基站获取CC2的前一个调度载波的编号0的二进制编码为0000,后一个调度载波的编号5的二进制编码为0101;针对当前调度载波CC5来说,基站获取CC5的前一个调度载波的编号2的二进制编码为0010,后一个调度载波的编号0的二进制编码为0000。
S703、基站将第四编码和第五编码组合生成CAI字段。
其中,CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,根据本发明实施例的示例,基站的所有配置载波的总数等于16,CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000095
这样,基站生成的CAI字段的比特数为8。并且,生成的CAI字段中,在第一种可能的实现方式中,第四编码位于CAI字段的前4个比特,第五编码位于CAI字段的后4个比特,在第二种可能的实现方式中,第五编码位于CAI字段的前4个比特,第四编码位于CAI字段的后4个比特。
示例性的,基站根据第一种可能的实现方式生成的每个当前调度载波对应的CAI字段可以如表5所示,基站根据第二种可能的实现方式生成的每个当前调度载波对应的CAI字段可以如表6所示。
表5
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000096
表6
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000097
S704、基站将CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
S705、UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。
其中,CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,包括第四编码和第五编码。根据本发明实施例的示例,在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第四编码,CAI字段的后4个比特为第五编码。在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段的前4个比特为第五编码,CAI字段的后4个比特为第四编码。
在UE接收到基站发送的DCI之后,UE便可以根据DCI进行数据的接收,可选地,为了保证数据传输的可靠性,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,因此,在S705之后,该方法还包括S706-S708。
S706、UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
其中,S706具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,UE根据第四编码和第四映射关系,获取前一个调度载波的编号,并根据第五编码和第四映射关系,获取后一个调度载波的编号。
示例性的,当基站中预设的第四映射关系如表4所示时,UE中预设的第四映射关系也如表4所示,当CAI字段的前4个比特为第四编码,后4个比特为第五编码时,若UE通过CC0接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为01010010,则UE根据第四编码,即CAI字段的前4个比特的编码0101,可以获取当前调度载波CC0的前一个调度载波的编号为5,根据第五编码,即CAI字段的后4个比特的编码0010,可以获取当前调度载波CC0的后一个调度载波的编号为2,同样的,若UE通过CC2接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为00000101,则UE根据第四编码,即CAI字段的前4个 比特的编码0000,可以获取当前调度载波CC2的前一个调度载波的编号为0,根据第五编码,即CAI字段的后4个比特的编码0101,可以获取当前调度载波CC2的后一个调度载波的编号为5;若UE通过CC5接收到DCI,且DCI中携带的CAI字段为00100000,则UE根据第四编码,即CAI字段的前4个比特的编码0010,可以获取当前调度载波CC5的前一个调度载波的编号为2,根据第五编码,即CAI字段的后4个比特的编码0000,可以获取当前调度载波CC5的后一个调度载波的编号为0。
S707、UE根据至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,确定调度载波的总数。
其中,在UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号之后,UE便可以根据至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,确定调度载波的总数。
示例性的,由于UE获取到CC0的前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号为2,获取到CC2的前一个调度载波的编号为0,后一个调度载波的编号为5,获取到CC5的前一个调度载波的编号为2,后一个调度载波的编号为0,因此,UE可以确定基站的调度载波分别为CC0、CC2以及CC5,也就是说,UE可以确定基站的调度载波的总数为3。
S708、UE根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,向基站发送HARQ信息。
其中,HARQ信息的比特数等于反馈每个所述调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数之和。在UE获取到调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号之后,UE便可以根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度 载波发送的数据。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,UE可以通过主载波向基站发送HARQ信息,也可以通过主载波和一个辅载波向基站发送HARQ信息,本发明实施例在此对发送HARQ信息采用的载波并不做具体限制,具体的发送HARQ信息采用的载波可以根据实际应用场景的需求进行选择。
示例性的,当用于反馈每个调度载波上发送的数据是否被正确接收所需的比特数为1时,以“1”表示UE正确接收数据,“0”表示UE未正确接收数据为例,当UE分别通过CC0和CC5接收到DCI时,UE可以获知基站分别通过CC0和CC5进行数据传输,且可以获知基站的调度载波分别为CC0、CC2和CC5,也就是说,UE可以获知基站的调度载波的总数为3,这样,UE可以确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数为3,若UE只正确接收基站通过CC0发送的数据,则UE向基站发送的HARQ信息为100,以指示自身已正确接收基站通过当前调度载波CC0发送的数据,未正确接收基站通过当前调度载波CC2和当前调度载波CC5发送的数据。在基站接收到UE发送的HARQ信息之后,基站重新向UE发送通过当前调度载波CC2和当前调度载波CC5进行发送的数据。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例S701-S708中具体的描述可以参照S501-S507中的描述,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
在第四种实施方式下,为了便于本领域技术人员的理解,以基站的所有配置载波的总数等于8,且基站调度的载波为CC4和CC5为例介绍本发明实施例提供的载波调度指示方法,如图9所示,该方法可以包括:
S801、基站获取当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
其中,例如,基站调度的载波为CC4和CC5,因此,针对CC4来说,前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号也为5;针对CC5来说,前一个调度载波的编号为4,后一个调度载波的编 号也为4。
S802、基站根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第六编码,并将第六编码作为CAI字段。
其中,在基站获取到的当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号之后,基站可以根根据前一个调度载波的编号、后一个调度载波的编号和第四映射关系,获取第六编码,并将第六编码作为CAI字段,由于基站的配置载波的总数等于8,且CAI字段的比特数可以为
Figure PCTCN2015083526-appb-000098
可以得出,基站生成的CAI字段包含的比特数为5。
基站可以将一个调度载波对应的第四映射关系放在一个单独的表中配置在基站中,示例性的,针对当前调度载波CC4来说,与CC4对应的第四映射关系如表7所示,基站根据获取到CC4的前一个调度载波的编号,即5和后一个调度载波的编号,即5,查询表7,得到第六编码为01111,并将得到的第六编码01111作为CC4的CAI字段。同样的,针对当前调度载波CC5来说,可以根据获取到CC5的前一个调度载波的编号,即4和后一个调度载波的编号,即4,查询与CC5对应的第四映射关系,得到第六编码,并将得到的第六编码作为CC5的CAI字段。基站也可以将所有调度载波对应的第四映射关系放在一个共同的表中配置在基站中。

需要说明的是,本发明实施例表7中包含的数值只是一种示例, 本发明实施例在此并未对表7中的与前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号对应的编码的具体取值以及预留的具体编码进行限制,与前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号对应的编码的具体取值以及预留的具体编码可以根据实际场景的需要进行相应的设置。
S803、基站将CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。
S804、UE接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。
其中,CAI字段为第六编码,用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
在UE接收到基站发送的DCI之后,UE便可以根据DCI进行数据的接收,可选地,为了保证数据传输的可靠性,UE可以向基站发送HARQ信息,以反馈自身是否正确接收基站通过所有调度载波发送的数据,因此,在S804之后,该方法还包括S805-S807。
S805、UE根据CAI字段,确定至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
其中,S805具体的可以为:针对每个CAI字段,UE根据第六编码和第四映射关系,获取前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号。
示例性的,若UE通过CC4接收到DCI,且DCI中包含的CAI字段为01111,则UE根据第六编码01111,查询与CC4对应的第四映射关系如表7,获取CC4的前一个调度载波的编号为5,后一个调度载波的编号也为5。同样的,若UE通过CC4接收到DCI,则UE也可以根据DCI中携带的CAI字段,查询与CC5对应的第四映射关系,获取CC5的前一个调度载波的编号为4,后一个调度载波的编号为4。
S806、UE根据至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号 和后一个调度载波的编号,确定调度载波的总数。
S807、UE根据调度载波的总数和至少一个当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,向基站发送HARQ信息。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例S801-S807中具体的描述可以参照S701-S708中的描述,本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
本发明实施例提供的载波调度指示方法,在基站根据自身配置的所有配置载波的调度情况生成当前调度载波的CAI字段后,并将生成的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE,以便UE根据DCI中的CAI字段,获知所有配置载波的调度情况。由于在本发明中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的CAI字段指示的是所有调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
并且,基于本发明实施例提供的调度载波指示,UE可以根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数,由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术中的UE根据所有配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数相比,降低了HARQ信息的比特数,从而降低了信令开销。
本发明一实施例提供一种基站,如图10所示,该基站包括:处理器91和发送器92。

需要说明的是,本发明实施例中所述的基站中各功能模块的具体工作过程可以参考方法实施例中对应过程的具体描述,本发明实施例在此不再详细赘述。
本发明实施例提供的基站,在根据自身配置的所有配置载波的调度情况生成当前调度载波的CAI字段后,将生成的CAI字段携带在DCI中通过当前调度载波发送至UE。由于在本发明中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的CAI字段指示的是所有调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此, 与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
本发明另一实施例提供一种UE,如图11所示,该UE可以包括:接收器1001和处理器1002。
接收器1001,用于接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带载波分配指示CAI字段的下行控制信息DCI。

在本发明实施例中,进一步的,当CAI字段用于指示基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值M时,
在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段包括第一编码和第二编码,第一编码为所述基站根据所述调度载波的总数和预设的第一映射关系获得的编码,所述第一映射关系用于指示所述调度载波的总数对应的所述第一编码,所述第二编码为所述基站根据所述M和预设的第二映射关系获得的编码,所述第二映射关系用于指示所述M对应 的所述第二编码。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,所述CAI字段包括所述第一编码和第三编码,所述第三编码为所述基站根据所述M和预设的第三映射关系获得的编码,所述第三映射关系用于指示所述M对应的所述第三编码。所述第三编码的比特数小于所述第二编码的比特数。
在本发明实施例中,进一步的,当CAI字段用于指示当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的编号和后一个调度载波的编号时,
在一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段包括第四编码和第五编码;所述第四编码为所述基站根据所述前一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系获得的编码,所述第五编码为所述基站根据所述后一个调度载波的编号和所述第四映射关系获得的编码,所述第四映射关系用于指示所述前一个调度载波的编号对应的所述第四编码,以及所述后一个调度载波的编号对应的所述第五编码。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,CAI字段为第六编码;所述第六编码为所述基站根据所述前一个调度载波的编号、所述后一个调度载波的编号和预设的第四映射关系获得的编码,所述第四映射关系用于指示所述前一个调度载波的编号、所述后一个调度载波的编号进行联合编码后对应的所述第六编码。
在本发明实施例中,进一步的,处理器1002,还用于根据所述CAI字段,确定所述调度载波的总数,并确定所述至少一个当前调度载波的累计索引值M。

需要说明的是,本发明实施例中所述的UE中各功能模块的具体工作过程可以参考方法实施例中对应过程的具体描述,本发明实施例在此不再详细赘述。
本发明实施例提供的UE,接收基站通过至少一个当前调度载波发送的携带CAI字段的DCI,并获取DCI中的CAI字段,以便获知所有配置载波的调度情况。由于在本发明中,UE接收到的CAI字段指示的是基站配置的所有配置载波中调度载波的总数和当前调度载波的累计索引值,或者指示的是当前调度载波的前一个调度载波的 编号和后一个调度载波的编号,也就是说,本发明中的CAI字段指示的是调度载波的调度信息,而在现有技术中,基站发送给UE的用于进行载波调度指示的DAI2字段指示的是除当前调度载波外其它所有配置载波中的每个配置载波的调度情况,且由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术相比,当基站配置的载波数较多时,基站根据本发明实施例提供的方法生成的CAI字段包含的比特数较少,这样,便减小了DCI的字段长度,从而降低了信令开销。
并且,基于本发明实施例提供的调度载波指示,UE可以根据基站的调度载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数,由于基站的调度载波的总数小于等于基站的配置载波的总数,因此,与现有技术中的UE根据所有配置载波的总数确定向基站发送的HARQ信息的比特数相比,降低了HARQ信息的比特数,从而降低了信令开销。
