Abstract
Description
ところで、無線端末は、セルの同期信号を探索するセルサーチを行うことにより、セルとの同期を確立し、セルを識別する。よって、無線端末は、同期信号の受信処理(すなわち、同期処理)に成功しなければ、セルとの同期及びセルの識別を行うことができない。
以下において、実施形態に係る移動通信システムであるLTEシステムについて説明する。実施形態において、5G移動通信システムがLTEシステムを発展させたシステムであると仮定する。
図1は、LTEシステムの構成を示す図である。図1に示すように、LTEシステムは、UE(User Equipment)100、E-UTRAN(Evolved-UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network)10、及びEPC(Evolved Packet Core)20を備える。E-UTRAN10及びEPC20は、LTEシステムのネットワークを構成する。
図4は、UE100(無線端末)の構成を示す図である。図4に示すように、UE100は、受信部110、送信部120、及び制御部130を備える。
図5は、eNB200(基地局)の構成を示す図である。図5に示すように、eNB200は、送信部210、受信部220、制御部230、及びバックホール通信部240を備える。
以下において、第1実施形態について説明する。
第1実施形態において、OFDMベースの信号伝送においてサブキャリア間隔(SS:Subcarrier Spacing)をスケーラブルにするシナリオを想定する。
第1実施形態に係るeNB200は、所定サブキャリア間隔を用いる、eNB200が管理するセルにおいて、同期信号を送信する送信部210と、所定サブキャリア間隔に基づいて、周波数方向に連続しない複数のサブキャリア(以下、「離散サブキャリア」という)に同期信号を配置する制御部230と、を備える。また、同期信号を配置すべき時間位置は事前設定されている。すなわち、eNB200は、サブキャリア間隔に依らず、同じ時間位置に配置されるシンボル上で同期信号を送信してもよい。
第1実施形態によれば、eNB200-1は、同期信号1のサブキャリア間隔が規定サブキャリア間隔(30kHz)になるように離散サブキャリアに同期信号1を配置する。これにより、UE100は、規定サブキャリア間隔(30kHz)を用いてセル1との同期処理を行うことが可能となる。つまり、UE100は、画一的な同期処理によりセル1の同期信号1及びセル2の同期信号2を受信することができる。したがって、サブキャリア間隔をスケーラブルにする場合でも、UE100の処理負荷の増大を抑制可能とすることができる。
上述した第1実施形態において、サブキャリア間隔(SS)が15kHzであるセル1と、サブキャリア間隔(SS)が30kHzであるセル2と、が存在する場合において、30kHzのサブキャリア間隔が規定サブキャリア間隔として事前定義される一例を説明した。しかしながら、サブキャリア間隔(SS)が15kHzであるセル1と、サブキャリア間隔(SS)が30kHzであるセル2と、サブキャリア間隔(SS)が60kHzであるセル3と、が存在する場合において、60kHzのサブキャリア間隔が規定サブキャリア間隔として事前定義されてもよい。
上述した第1実施形態において、規定サブキャリア間隔の設定方法について特に触れなかった。しかしながら、規定サブキャリア間隔は、システム仕様により事前定義されてもよい。同期信号が配置される時間位置についても同様に、システム仕様により事前定義されてもよい。
以下において、第2実施形態について、第1実施形態との相違点を主として説明する。第2実施形態に係る想定シナリオは、第1実施形態に係る想定シナリオと同様である。
第2実施形態に係るeNB200は、所定サブキャリア間隔を用いる、eNB200が管理するセルにおいて、同期信号を送信する送信部210と、同期信号を送信する時間位置に、所定サブキャリア間隔とは異なるサブキャリア間隔を適用する制御部230と、を備える。言い換えると、第2実施形態において、eNB200は、同期信号の時間位置に対してのみ、他の時間位置(すなわち、データ伝送用サブキャリア)とは異なるサブキャリア間隔を適用する。具体的には、制御部230は、所定サブキャリア間隔が、事前設定された規定サブキャリア間隔とは異なる場合に、同期信号を送信する時間位置に規定サブキャリア間隔を適用する。また、第1実施形態と同様に、同期信号を配置すべき時間位置は事前設定されていてもよい。同期信号は、所定サブキャリア間隔を示す信号系列を含む。
第2実施形態によれば、eNB200は、同期信号の時間位置に対してのみ、他の時間位置(すなわち、データ伝送用サブキャリア)とは異なるサブキャリア間隔(規定サブキャリア間隔である15kHz)を適用する。これにより、UE100は、画一的な同期処理により各セルの同期信号を受信することができる。したがって、サブキャリア間隔をスケーラブルにする場合でも、UE100の処理負荷の増大を抑制可能とすることができる。
以下において、第3実施形態について、第1及び第2実施形態との相違点を主として説明する。第3実施形態に係る想定シナリオは、第1実施形態に係る想定シナリオと同様である。
第3実施形態に係るeNB200は、第1セルにおいて、サブキャリア間隔情報をUE100に送信する送信部210を備える。サブキャリア間隔情報は、第1セルとは異なる第2セルのサブキャリア間隔を示す。第1セルは、UE100のプライマリセル(PCell)であり、第2セルは、UE100のセカンダリセル(SCell)であってもよい。PCellは既存のLTEセルと同様なセルであり、SCellは5G移動通信システムのセルであってもよい。
第3実施形態によれば、一のセルが他のセルのサブキャリア間隔をUE100に事前に通知する。これにより、UE100は、当該他のセルの同期信号を容易に受信することができる。したがって、サブキャリア間隔をスケーラブルにする場合でも、UE100の処理負荷の増大を抑制可能とすることができる。
上述した第3実施形態において、サブキャリア間隔情報が第1セル(PCell)からUE100に対して個別シグナリングにより送信される一例を説明した。しかしながら、サブキャリア間隔情報は、第1セル(PCell)からブロードキャストシグナリングにより送信されてもよい。また、サブキャリア間隔情報は、複数のセルのサブキャリア間隔のリストであってもよい。当該リストは複数のエントリを含み、各エントリは、セルの識別子と当該セルのサブキャリア間隔とを含んでもよい。
上述した第1~第3実施形態は、別個独立して実施してもよいし、2以上の実施形態を組み合わせて実施してもよい。
