Description

一种上行传输的方法、设备及存储介质
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请要求在2019年11月08日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为PCT/CN2019/116745、申请名称为“一种上行传输的方法、设备及存储介质”的PCT国际申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种上行传输的方法、设备及存储介质。
背景技术
第五代移动通信系统(5th generation,5G)可以采用高频通信,即采用超高频段(>6GHz)信号传输数据。高频通信的一个主要问题是信号能量随传输距离急剧下降,导致信号传输距离短。为了克服这个问题,高频通信采用模拟波束技术,通过对大规模天线阵列进行信号处理,将信号能量集中在一个较小的范围内,形成一个类似于光束一样的信号(称为模拟波束,简称波束),从而提高传输距离。
基站和终端设备都可以生成不同的波束,指向不同的方向。目前通信系统中,终端设备和网络设备均支持多个波束,但在是数据通信时,终端设备和网络设备之间往往是使用最优波束进行通信。例如:终端设备使用最优上行发送波束与网络设备对应的最优上行接收波束进行上行通信,终端设备使用最优下行接收波束与网络设备对应的最优下行发送波束进行下行通信。
随着终端设备的移动,终端设备最优上行发送波束会发生变化。现有技术中,当终端设备上行的最优发送波束发生变化时,网络设备会通过无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)重配信令为终端设备重新配置最优上行发送波束。终端设备收到RRC重配信令后更新最优上行发送波束。当终端设备快速移动时,终端设备的最优上行发送波束变化频繁,这会导致频繁的RRC重配信令的发送,信令开销较大。

具体实施方式
本领域普通技术人员可以意识到,结合本文中所公开的实施例描述的各种说明性逻辑块(illustrative logical block)和步骤(step),能够以电子硬件、或者计算机软件和电子硬件的结合来实现。这些功能究竟以硬件还是软件方式来执行,取决于技术方案的特定应用和设计约束条件。专业技术人员可以对每个特定的应用来使用不同方法来实现所描述的功能,但是这种实现不应认为超出本申请的范围。
图1为本申请实施例适用的一种可能的系统架构示意图。如图1所示的系统架构包括网络设备和终端设备。单个网络设备可以向单个或多个终端设备传输数据或控制信令。多个网络设备也可以为单个终端设备传输数据或控制信令。应理解,本申请实施例对系统架构中网络设备的数量、终端设备的数量不作限定,而且本申请实施例所适用的系统架构中除了包括网络设备和终端设备以外,还可以包括其它设备,如核心网设备、无线中继设备和无线回传设备等,对此本申请实施例也不作限定。以及,本申请实施例中的网络设备可以将所有的功能集成在一个独立的物理设备,也可以将功能分布在多个独立的物理设备上,对此本申请实施例也不作限定。此外,本申请实施例中的终端设备可以通过无线方式与网络设备连接。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile Communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)系统、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)通信系统,以及5G通信系统等。
在图1所示意的系统架构中,终端设备向网络设备方向进行的传输可以称为上行传输。网络设备向终端设备方向进行的传输可以称为下行传输。上行传输可以包括物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH),物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Sharing Channel,PUSCH),探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)等的传输。
本申请实施例中,上行传输可以采用单个波束进行传输,也可以采用多个波束进行传 输。例如,在基于多波束或多站的下行传输中,网络设备采用多个波束向终端设备传输下行数据,终端设备采用多个接收波束进行接收。反过来,终端设备也会采用多个发送波束发送上行数据给网络设备,网络设备相对应的采用多个波束接收终端设备传输的上行数据。
下面对本申请实施例涉及到的术语以及相关技术进行相关介绍。
(1)终端设备。
终端设备可以包括各种具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备。终端可以是移动站(Mobile Station,MS)、用户单元(subscriber unit)、蜂窝电话(cellular phone)、智能电话(smart phone)、无线数据卡、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,简称:PDA)电脑、平板型电脑、无线调制解调器(modem)、手持设备(handset)、膝上型电脑(laptop computer)、机器类型通信(Machine Type Communication,MTC)终端等。
(2)网络设备。
网络设备可以是一种部署在无线接入网中为终端设备提供无线通信功能的设备。网络设备可以包括各种形式的宏基站,微基站(也称为小站),中继站,接入点等。在采用不同的无线接入技术的系统中,网络设备的名称可能会有所不同,例如全球移动通信系统(Global System for Mobile Communication,GSM)或码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)网络中的基站收发信台(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)中的NB(NodeB),长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)中的eNB或eNodeB(Evolutional NodeB)。网络设备还可以是云无线接入网络(Cloud Radio Access Network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器。网络设备还可以是未来5G网络中的基站设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备。网络设备还可以是可穿戴设备或车载设备。网络设备还可以传输接收节点(Transmission and Reception Point,TRP)。本申请实施例并不限定。
(3)波束。
波束在NR协议中的体现可以是空域滤波器(spatial domain filter),或者称空间滤波器(spatial filter),或称空域参数(spatial domain parameter),空间参数(spatial parameter),空域设置(spatial domain setting),空间设置(spatial setting),或QCL(准共址,Quasi-colocation)信息,QCL假设,QCL指示等。波束可以通过传输配置指示状态(TCI-state)参数来指示,或通过空间关系(spatial relation)参数来指示。因此,本申请中,波束可以替换为空域滤波器,空间滤波器,空域参数,空间参数,空域设置,空间设置,QCL信息,QCL假设,QCL指示,TCI-state(DL TCI-state,UL TCI-state),空间关系等。上述术语之间也相互等效。波束也可以替换为其他表示波束的术语,本申请不作限定。
用于发送信号的波束可以称为发送波束(transmission beam,Tx beam),也可以称为空域发送滤波器(spatial domain transmission filter),空间发送滤波器(spatial transmission filter),空域发送参数(spatial domain transmission parameter)或空间发送参数(spatial transmission parameter),空域发送设置(spatial domain transmission setting)或空间发送设置(spatial transmission setting)。下行发送波束可以通过TCI-state来指示。
用于接收信号的波束可以称为接收波束(reception beam,Rx beam),也可以称为空域接收滤波器(spatial domain reception filter),空间接收滤波器(spatial reception filter),空域接收参数(spatial domain reception parameter)或空间接收参数(spatial reception parameter), 空域接收设置(spatial domain reception setting)或空间接收设置(spatial reception setting)。上行发送波束可以通过空间关系spatial relation,或上行TCI-state,或SRS资源(表示采用该SRS的发送波束)来指示。因此上行波束还可以替换为SRS资源。
下行发送波束可以通过TCI-state来进行指示,其中,传输配置编号状态(transmission configuration index,TCI)-state在本申请中可以写为TCI-state。上行发送波束可以通过空间关系(spatial relation)来进行指示。因此,确定上行发送波束,可以等同于确定上行传输的spatial relation。
为介绍方便,本申请实施例中主要以空间关系为例进行介绍。有些地方也以空域滤波器为例进行介绍。用于发送信号的波束以空域发送滤波器或发送波束为例进行介绍。用于接收信号的波束以空域接收滤波器或接收波束为例进行介绍。本申请实施例中波束可以替换为:资源、TCI-state、空间关系、空间参数、空域滤波器等可以表征出波束的名词。
发送波束可以是指信号经天线发射出去后在空间不同方向上形成的信号强度的分布,接收波束可以是指从天线上接收到的无线信号在空间不同方向上的信号强度分布。
波束可以是宽波束,或者窄波束,或者其他类型波束。形成波束的技术可以是波束赋形技术或者其他技术。波束赋形技术具体可以为数字波束赋形技术、模拟波束赋形技术或者混合数字/模拟波束赋形技术等。
波束一般和资源对应,例如进行波束测量时,网络设备通过不同的资源来测量不同的波束,终端设备反馈测得的资源质量,网络设备根据终端设备所反馈的资源质量可以确定对应的波束的质量。针对数据传输来说,波束信息可以通过波束应的资源来进行指示的。例如,网络设备可以通过下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)中的传输配置编号(Transmission Configuration Index,TCI)字段,来指示终端设备PDSCH波束的信息。
可选地,将具有相同或者类似的通信特征的多个波束视为是一个波束。一个波束内可以包括一个或多个天线端口,用于传输数据信道、控制信道和探测信号等。形成一个波束的一个或多个天线端口也可以看作是一个天线端口集。
本申请实施例中,在波束测量中,网络设备的每一个波束可以对应一个资源,因此可以以资源的索引来标识该资源对应的波束。
(4)空间关系。
上行发送波束在3GPP R15协议中是通过空间关系来指示。在本申请实施例中,以通过空间关系来指示波束为例进行介绍,空间关系的英文为spatial relation。
空间关系中可以包括一个SRS资源的索引,表示采用该SRS资源的发送波束来进行上行传输。例如,一个PUCCH采用的空间关系中包括SRS资源#1,表示该PUCCH的发送波束与该SRS资源#1是相同的,这样终端设备就会采用该SRS资源#1的发送波束来发送该PUCCH。
Spatial relation中也可以包括一个下行参考信号资源,如SSB或CSI-RS,表示采用该下行参考信号资源的接收波束来进行上行传输。例如,一个PUCCH采用的spatial relation中包括CSI-RS资源#1,表示该PUCCH的发送波束与该CSI-RS资源#1的接收波束是相同的,这样终端设备就会采用该CSI-RS资源#1的接收波束来发送该PUCCH。
(5)资源。
在波束测量中,可以通过资源的索引来标识该资源对应的波束。资源可以是上行信号 资源,也可以是下行信号资源。上行信号包括但不限于探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS),解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)。下行信号包括但不限于:信道状态信息参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)、小区专用参考信号(cell specific reference signal,CS-RS)、UE专用参考信号(user equipment specific reference signal,US-RS)、解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)、以及同步信号/物理广播信道块(synchronization system/physical broadcast channel block,SS/PBCH block)。其中,SS/PBCH block可以简称为同步信号块(synchronization signal block,SSB)。
资源通过RRC信令配置。在配置结构上,一个资源是一个数据结构,包括其对应的上行/下行信号的相关参数,例如上行/下行信号的类型,承载上行/下行信号的资源粒,上行/下行信号的发送时间和周期,发送上行/下行信号所采用的端口数等。每一个上行/下行信号的资源具有的索引,以标识该下行信号的资源。可以理解的是,资源的索引也可以称为资源的标识,本申请实施例对此不作任何限制。
(6)控制资源集合(control-resource set,CORESET)。
一个CORESET在频域上包括多个物理资源块(physical resource block,PRB),在时域上包括1个或连续几个符号,且这些符号可位于时隙内的任意位置。PDCCH是在CORESET中传输。本申请实施例中控制资源集合可以写为CORESET。
(7)小区。
本申请实施例中所涉及到的小区比如可以是指一个基站所覆盖的小区。小区是为用户提供无线通信业务的一片区域,是无线网络的基本组成单位。例如NR是通过MML命令ADD NRCELL、ADD NRDUCELL添加NR的小区资源。网络侧设备可能给终端侧设备配置多个小区,其中有一个用于发起初始接入的小区,这个小区称为主小区,其他小区成为辅小区。所有小区共同组成了整个无线网络的覆盖。
应理解,本申请的方法中,小区也可以替换为载波(carrier),载波成分(carrier component,CC),频段(frequency band),频率带宽分量(bandwidth part,BWP)等。
(8)准共址(quasi co-located,QCL)属性。
NR协议中QCL的定义为:若在一个天线端口上传输的某一符号的信道的大尺度特性,可以从另一个天线端口上传输的某一符号的信道推导得到,则这两个天线端口被称为是准共址的,可以描述该两个天线端口具有准共址属性,也可以描述该两个天线端口具有准共址关系。
QCL关系用于表示多个资源之间具有一个或多个相同或者相类似的通信特征。对于具有QCL关系的多个资源,可以采用相同或者类似的通信配置。例如,两个信号从两个不同天线端口发射,所经历的大尺度特性相同,则可以认为两个天线端口具有QCL关系,那么一个端口传送一个符号的信道大尺度特性/信道估计结果可以从另一个端口传送一个符号的信道大尺度特性推断出来,有利于接收机处理。大尺度特性包括一个或多个时延扩展(delay spread),多普勒扩展(Doppler spread),多普勒频移Doppler shift,平均增益,平均时延(average delay),空间接收参数(patial Rx parameter)。QCL的类型(Type)可以分为QCL-TypeA、QCL-TypeB、QCL-TypeC和QCL-TypeD4种。
其中,QCL-TypeA的参数为:{Doppler shift,Doppler spread,average delay,delay spread};QCL-TypeB的参数为:{Doppler shift,Doppler spread};QCL-TypeC的参数为:{Doppler shift,average delay};QCL-TypeD的参数为:{Spatial Rx parameter}。
QCL-type D关系的英文可以描述为“for the purpose of determining the CORESET,a Synchronization/PBCH block is considered to have different QCL-TypeD properties than a CSI-RS”,对应翻译为:为了确定监听PDCCH的CORESET,可以理解一个同步/物理广播信道块(SS/PBCH)与一个信道状态信息测量参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal,CSI-RS)具有不同的类型D的准共址属性”。可以理解为一个同步/物理广播信道块对应一个宽波束,而一个信道状态信息参考信号对应一个窄波束,虽然窄波束可能是从宽波束通过波束细化(beam refinement)得到,但仍然认为宽波束和窄波束为两个不同的波束,他们的波束信息不同,即类型D的准共址属性不同。QCL-type D用于辅助波束赋形,比如用于形成空间滤波器,波束指示等。对于QCL-TypeD,可以分别从发送端和接收端两个角度理解。从发送端来看,如果两个天线端口是QCL-TypeD的,表示这两个天线端口的对应的波束方向在空间上是一致的。从接收端来看,如果两个天线端口是QCL-TypeD的,表示这个接收端能够在相同的波束方向上接收到这两个天线端口发送的信号。
(9)频率带宽分量。
本申请实施例中,频率带宽分量英文可以写为bandwidth part,可以简写为BWP。
(10)其它。
本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”可被互换使用。“至少一个”是指一个或者多个,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“和/或”,描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B的情况,其中A,B可以是单数或者复数。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。“以下至少一项(个)”或其类似表达,是指的这些项中的任意组合,包括单项(个)或复数项(个)的任意组合。例如,a,b,或c中的至少一项(个),可以表示:a,b,c,a-b,a-c,b-c,或a-b-c,其中a,b,c可以是单个,也可以是多个。
以及,除非有特别说明,本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词是用于对多个对象进行区分,不用于限定多个对象的顺序、时序、优先级或者重要程度。例如,第一PDCCH MO和第二PDCCH MO,是为了区分不同的PDCCH MO,而并不是表示这两个PDCCH MO的优先级或者重要程度等的不同。
基于上述内容,图2示例性示出了一种用于确定终端设备的上行传输的空间关系的方法流程示意图,如图2所示,该方法包括:
步骤201,终端设备通过第二小区中的第一资源确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
在上述步骤201中,第一小区和第二小区是网络设备为终端设备配置的两个小区。第一小区的频率为高频,第二小区的频率为高频。也就是说,终端设备可以在第一小区进行高频通信,即可以在第一小区采用超高频段信号传输数据。终端设备可以在第二小区进行高频通信,即可以在第二小区采用超高频段(例如可以是大于6GHz的频段)信号传输数据。
步骤202,所述终端设备根据所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,在所述第一小区进行上行传输。
在上述步骤202中,终端设备可以将第一资源对应的接收波束作为发送波束来使用。也可以描述为,终端设备将所述第一资源的空域接收滤波器作为在第一小区进行上行传输的空域发送滤波器。
本申请实施例中,终端设备可以通过第二小区中的第一资源确定第一小区的上行传输 的空间关系,由于该方案无需通过网络设备下发的RRC重配信令获取为终端设备配置的上行传输的空间关系,因此可以减少RRC重配信令的发送,信令开销较小。且通过本申请实施例提供的方案,可以实现多波束上行数据传输,比如,可以实现基于码本的多波束数据传输和基于非码本的多波束数据传输。
另一方面,当使用RRC重配信令为终端设备配置上行传输的空间关系时,终端设备接收到该RRC重配信令后需要对该信令进行解析以得到该信令中携带的上行传输的空间关系,该过程除了带来信令开销之外,还花费时间较长,导致上行传输的空间关系生效较慢。本申请实施例提供的方案中终端设备通过上述第二小区中的第一资源确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,该过程相比需接收并解析信令的过程来说,较为节省时间,上行传输的空间关系生效较快。
在上述步骤201中,第二小区的选择可以有多种方案。比如,第二小区可以是网络设备为所述终端设备配置的多个小区中频率与所述第一小区比较接近的一个小区。再比如第二小区可以是网络设备为所述终端设备配置的多个小区中频率与所述第一小区最接近的一个小区。下面通过方案a1、方案a2、方案a3、方案b1、方案b2、方案b3、方案b4、方案b5介绍几种用于确定第二小区的方案。
方案a1,第二小区可以为所述第一小区对应的主小区。
上述方案a1中,第二小区可以是第一小区对应的MCG的主小区Pcell,或第一小区对应的SCG的主小区PScell,或第一小区对应的MCG的PUCCH-scell,或第一小区对应的SCG的PUCCH-scell。以上几个中可以优先采用Pcell或Pscell,如果Pcell或Pscell的频率是FR1则可以采用PUCCH-scell。例如,当前第一小区是MCG中的小区,则优先采用Pcell,如果Pcell的频率是FR1则采用MCG中的PUCCH-scell。又例如,当前第一小区是SCG中的小区,则优先采用PScell,如果PScell的频率是FR1则采用SCG中的PUCCH-scell。PUCCH-scell是配置了PUCCH的scell。
上述方案a1中还可以包括一个实施条件,该条件为:第一小区为辅小区(Secondary cell,Scell)。一种可选地实施方式中,当第一小区为辅小区的情况下,可以选择第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区。当然,又一种实施方式中,当第一小区为辅小区的情况下,也可以选择除第一小区对应的主小区之外的小区作为第二小区。
对于上述方案a1,也可以增加一个其他的适用条件,比如第二小区可以为所述第一小区对应的主小区,第一小区对应的主小区的TCI-state包含typeD类型的QCL-info。该方案中,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在第一小区对应的主小区的TCI-state包含typeD类型的QCL-info,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,选择第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区,当然又一种实施方式中,在第一小区对应的主小区的TCI-state包含typeD类型的QCL-info,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,也可以选择除第二小区对应的主小区之外的小区作为第二小区。
又比如,对于上述方案a1增加的适用条件为:第二小区为所述第一小区对应的主小区,且第二小区的频率为FR2。该方案中,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在第一小区对应的主小区的频率为FR2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,选择第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区,当然又一种实施方式中,在第一小区对应的主小区的频率为FR2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,也可以选择除第二小区对应的主小区之外的小区作为第二小区。
本申请实施例中涉及到的第一小区对应的主小区可以是Pcell,英文全称为Primary cell,第一小区对应的主小区也可以为Pscell,英文全称为Primary secondary cell。可选地,如果 第一小区是配置在主小区组(Master cell group,MCG)中的,则主小区可以是Pcell,如果第一小区是配置在辅小区组(Secondary cell group,SCG)中的,则主小区可以是PScell。
方案a2,第二小区可以为所述第一小区的调度小区。
本申请实施例中涉及到的第一小区的调度小区的英文可以写为scheduling Cell,可以是指第二小区的上下行传输的调度信息是通过第一小区的下行控制信息DCI发送的,也可以说,网络设备通过第二小区发送下行控制信息给终端设备,该下行控制信息用于调度第一小区的上行传输或下行传输。
对于上述方案a2,也可以增加一个其他的适用条件,比如:第二小区为所述第一小区的调度小区,且第二小区的频率为FR2。该方案中,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在所述第一小区的调度小区的频率为FR2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,选择该所述第一小区的调度小区作为第二小区,当然又一种实施方式中,在所述第一小区的调度小区的频率为FR2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,也可以选择除所述第一小区的调度小区之外的小区作为第二小区。
方案a3,第二小区可以为满足第一条件的小区中的小区。
本申请实施例中第一条件可以是预先设置的一些规则,比如频率与第一小区较为接近。满足第一条件的小区可以是一个或多个,当满足第一条件的小区是多个的情况下,第二小区是多个满足第一条件的小区中的一个小区,选择方法有多种,比如可以选择多个满足第一条件的小区中索引最小或最大的小区作为第二小区等等。关于满足第一条件的小区,以及从满足第一条件的小区中选择出一个第二小区,后续内容进行更详细的介绍。
基于上述内容,方案a1、方案a2和方案a3,可以选择其中一种作为选择第二小区的方案。也可以将方案a1、方案a2和方案a3中的两种或多种进行组合使用。比如,可以为方案a1、方案a2和方案a3设置优先级。一种可能地实施方中,优先选择方案a1,若在无法将第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区的情况下(例如第一小区的主小区不是FR2的小区),可以选择方案a2。当也无法将第一小区的调度小区作为第二小区的情况下,(例如第一小区的调度小区不是FR2的小区),选择方案a3。又一种可能地实施方中,优先选择方案a1,若在无法将第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区的情况下(例如第一小区的主小区不是FR2的小区),可以选择方案a3。又一种可能地实施方中,优先选择方案a2,若在无法将第一小区的调度小区作为第二小区的情况下,可以选择方案a3。又一种可能地实施方中,优先选择方案a1,若在无法将第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区的情况下,可以选择方案a2。还可以有其它组合方式,不再穷举。
针对上述方案a1、方案a2和方案a3,一种可选地实施方式中,可以为方案a1、方案a2和方案a3中的一个或多个添加适用条件,比如可以有以下方案b1至方案b5用于确定第二小区。
方案b1,第二小区可以为所述第一小区对应的主小区;其中,所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围2。
本申请实施例中涉及到的频率范围1英文可以写为frequency range 1,本申请实施例中也可以写为FR1。本申请实施例中涉及到的频率范围2英文可以写为frequency range 2,本申请实施例中也可以写为FR2。5G将频率分为多个频率范围,本申请实施例中所涉及到的FR1和FR2是指两个频率范围,其中,FR2的频率范围中的最小频率可以大于FR1的频率范围中的最小频率。FR1和FR2这两个频率范围可以有交集,也可以没有交集。FR1和 FR2的频率范围可以预先设置,一种可能地的FR1和FR2的示例为:FR1是指410MHz-7125MHz的频率范围,FR2是指24150MHz-52600MHz的频率范围。注意,在实际应用中,FR1和FR2对应的具体数值可能会变,上述值只是例举,不具有限定意义。
本申请中,条件“如果一个小区的频率为FR2”或条件“如果一个小区的频率为FR1”,可以替换为“如果一个小区配置的TCI-state中没有typeD类型的QCL”,“如果一个小区的控制资源集合的TCI-state中没有typeD类型的QCL”。
对于上述方案b1,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,选择第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区。又一种实施方式中,在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围2,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,可以选择除第一小区对应的主小区之外的一个小区作为第二小区。
方案b2,第二小区可以为所述第一小区的调度小区;其中,所述第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围2。
对于上述方案b2,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围2的情况下,选择第一小区的调度小区作为第二小区。又一种实施方式中,可以在第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围2的情况下,可以选择除第一小区的调度小区之外的一个小区作为第二小区。
方案b3,第二小区可以为满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区;其中,所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1。
对于上述方案b3,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第二小区。又一种实施方式中,可以在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1,第一小区为辅小区的情况下,可以选择除满足所述第一条件的小区之外的一个小区作为第二小区。
方案b4,第二小区可以为满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区;其中,所述第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围1。
对于上述方案b4,一种可选地实施方式中,可以在第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围1的情况下,选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第二小区。又一种实施方式中,可以在第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围1的情况下,可以选择除满足所述第一条件的小区之外的一个小区作为第二小区。
方案b5,第二小区可以为满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区;其中,所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1,且所述第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围1。

举个例子,可以选择方案b1、方案b2和方案b5组合使用,可以为方案b1、方案b2和方案b5设置优先级,这种情况下,可以优先选择第一小区的主小区,若第一小区的主小区的频率不是频率范围2,再看第一小区的所述调度小区的频率是否属于频率范围2,若第一小区的所述调度小区的频率不属于频率范围2,则在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1,且所述第一小区的所述调度小区的频率属于频率范围1的情况下,选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第一小区。再比如,上述方案b1和上述方案a3可以组合使用,这种情况下,可以优先选择第一小区的主小区,若第一小区的主小区的频率不是频率范围2,在所述第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围1的情况下,选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第一小区。
上述方案b1和方案b3组合使用的情况下,一种确定第二小区的方案可以为:当第一小区对应的所述主小区的频率属于频率范围2,选择第一小区对应的主小区作为第二小区;当第一小区对应的主小区的频率不属于频率范围2的情况下,则选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第二小区。上述方案b2和方案b4组合使用的情况下,一种确定第二小区的方案可以为:当第一小区的调度小区的频率属于频率范围2,选择第一小区的调度小区作为第二小区。当第一小区的调度小区的频率不属于频率范围2的情况下,则选择满足所述第一条件的小区中的小区作为第二小区。
在上述方案a3、方案b3、方案b4和方案b5中提到的满足所述第一条件的小区可以有一个或多个,而第二小区可以是满足第一条件的小区中的一个。下面通过方案c1至方案c24提供几种第一条件可能的实现方式。
条件c1,第一条件包括:属于所述第一小区所属的小区组中的小区。
本申请实施例中涉及到的小区组(cell group,CG)可以是主小区组(Master cell group,MCG),或辅小区组(Secondary cell group,SCG),也可以是其他形式的小区组合,例如网络设备配置的或终端设备上报的一组不同于SCG和MCG的小区。举个例子,小区组包括:用于同时激活相同的TCI-state的一组小区,也就是说,可以通过一个信令同时激活一组小区的一个或多个TCI-state。本申请实施例中关于小区组的定义可以参见协议38.214中有CG的概念。
条件c2,第一条件包括:属于所述第一小区所属的频段中的小区。
本申请实施例中,频段(frequency band)是指划分的一段频率,例如1900MHz-1920MHz所对应的20MHz就是一个频段。频段的相关定义可以参见标准中的介绍。
条件c3,第一条件包括:属于所述第一小区所属的频段列表中的小区。
本申请实施例中涉及到的频段列表中的小区可以是网络设备配置的,或者可以是终端设备上报的多个频段组成的频段列表。
条件c4,第一条件包括:配置有控制资源集合的小区。
条件c5,第一条件包括:配置有CORESET 0的小区。

上述条件c1至条件c9可以单独使用,比如,满足第一条件的小区包括属于所述第一小区所属的小区组中的小区。当然,上述条件c1至条件c9中的多项可以组合使用,比如条件c1和条件c4组合使用,则满足第一条件的小区包括:属于所述第一小区所属的小区组,且配置有控制资源集合的小区。再比如,条件c1、条件c4和条件c8组合使用,则满足第一条件的小区包括:属于所述第一小区所属的小区组,且配置有控制资源集合、采用频率范围2的小区。上述内容需要注意的是条件c5和条件c6是有冲突的两个条件,在灵活组合使用时,不会同时选择条件c5和条件c6两个条件。
上述步骤201中,本申请实施例中可以作为第二小区的小区范围内可以包括有多个小区,比如第一小区的调度小区有多个,再比如满足第一条件的小区有多个等等,这种情况下,可以从其中选择一个作为第二小区,可以随机选择一个,也可以根据小区的索引、频率等一项或多项小区的相关参数进行选择。具体实施中,第二小区的选择方式有多种。本申请实施例中提供方案d1、方案d2和方案d3用于从满足第一条件的小区中选择一个作为第二小区。
方案d1,第二小区为满足所述第一条件的小区中:索引最小的小区。
方案d2,第二小区为满足所述第一条件的小区中:索引最大的小区。
方案d3,第二小区为满足所述第一条件的小区中:频率与所述第一小区最接近的一个小区。
方案d4,若满足第一条件的小区中频率与所述第一小区最接近的小区有多个,则:所述第二小区为满足第一条件的小区中频率与所述第一小区最接近的小区中的:索引最小的小区。
方案d5,若满足第一条件的小区中频率与所述第一小区最接近的小区有多个,则:所述第二小区为满足第一条件的小区中频率与所述第一小区最接近的小区中的:索引最大的小区。
在上述步骤201中,第二小区的资源有一个或多个,当从第二小区的多个资源中选择一个时可以有多种实施方式,可以随机选择一个,也可以通过其他方式来选择。下面通过方案e1、方案e2、方案e3、方案e4和方案e5来介绍从第二小区中选择一个资源作为第一资源的实施方式。
方案e1,所述第一资源包括:所述第二小区中上行传输的空间关系中的资源。
在上述方案e1中有多种实施方式,在一种可能地实施方式中,可以采用第二小区中的上行传输的空间关系来作为第一小区中相同类型的上行传输的。例如,可以采用第二小区 中PUCCH的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行PUCCH上行传输的空间关系。又例如,采用第二小区中PUSCH的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行PUSCH上行传输的空间关系。又例如,采用第二小区中SRS的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行SRS上行传输的空间关系。在一种可能地实施方式中,也可以采用第二小区中的上行传输的空间关系来作为第一小区中其他类型的上行传输的。例如,可以采用第二小区中PUCCH的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行SRS或PUCCH上行传输的空间关系。又例如,采用第二小区中PUSCH的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行SRS或PUSCH上行传输的空间关系。又例如,采用第二小区中SRS的空间关系来作为第一小区中进行PUCCH或PUSCH上行传输的空间关系。
方案e2,所述第一资源包括:所述终端设备在所述第二小区中,例如第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量(bandwidth part)中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源(例如typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源),即用于指示该控制资源集合对应的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息(如typeD类型的准共址信息)的参考信号资源。也就是说,采用上述控制资源集合的空间接收参数/接收波束来作为第一小区的上行传输的空间发送参数/发送波束。
在上述方案e2中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合,可以是指最近一次在一个时隙内侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合。
本申请实施例中,在上述方案e2中,TCI-state对应的参考信号资源可以是TCI-state中typeA类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源或typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。或者说,所述准共址信息可以是指typeD类型的准共址信息,或typeA类型的准共址信息。用于指示物理下行控制信道的准共址信息的参考信号资源,可以具体是指该CORESET当前激活的TCI-state的typeD或typeA的QCL-info中的参考信号资源,或者,可以指该CORESET对应的PDCCH传输所参考的参考信号资源。本申请实施例中,可以采用参考信号资源确定上行传输的发送波束具体可以是指采用参考信号资源的接收波束来作为该CORESET对应的PDCCH的接收波束。
在一种可能地实施方式中,当采用第二小区的PDCCH的接收波束来作为在第一小区的上行传输的发送波束(发送波束可以理解为空间关系)的情况下,由于PDCCH的接收波束是通过PDCCH对应的CORESET的TCI-state来确定的。因此,当第二小区配置有多个CORESET时,可以具体采用其中一个CORESET的TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。比如,可以采用配置的多个CORESET中,索引最小或最大的CORESET的TCI-state中的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的发送波束。
方案e3,所述第一资源包括:所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Sharing Channel,PDSCH)传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中的参考信号资源。
又可以存在一种可选地实施方式,所述第一资源包括:所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。
又可以存在一种可选地实施方式,所述第一资源包括:所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中typeA类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。
本申请实施例中,将一个TCI-state中的参考信号资源作为第一资源,可以理解为将该TCI-state对应的接收波束作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。比如当通过方案e3确定出第一资源后,终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输时,将第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中的参考信号资源的接收波束作为发送波束。
在一种可能地实施方式中,当采用第二小区的PDSCH的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束的情况下,由于PDSCH的接收波束也是通过TCI-state来确定的,可选地,网络设备会先为PDSCH激活多个TCI-state,每个TCI-state与PDCCH中的TCI字段的一个字段值是对应的。在进行PDSCH传输之前,网络设备向终端设备发送PDCCH,通过PDCCH中的TCI字段来指示其中一个TCI-state,这样终端设备就可以知道PDSCH所采用的TCI-state了。采用PDSCH的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束,也可以表述为采用PDSCH的TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。由于网络设备可能为终端设备激活多个TCI-state,因此可以采用其中的一个TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。一种可选地实施方式中,可以采用第二小区当前激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state中的一个TCI-state中的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的发送波束,比如,可以采用TCI-state最小或最大的那个TCI-state中的参考信号资源,再比如,也可以采用对应TCI字段值最小或最大的那个TCI-state中的参考信号资源。
方案e4,所述第一资源包括:所述终端设备在所述第二小区进行初始接入过程时,所采用的同步信号-广播信道测量资源块(Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block,SSB)资源。
本申请实施例中,将一个SSB的资源作为第一资源,可以理解为将该SSB对应的接收波束作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。或者理解为:将该SSB的资源作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的参考信号资源。
在上述方案e4中,终端设备在接入第二小区的过程中,会发送随机接入消息,比如随机接入消息1、随机接入消息2、随机接入消息3或随机接入消息4等。一种可选地实施方式中,第一资源也可以包括在接入所述第二小区进程中用于发送随机接入消息1的资源。又一种可选地实施方式中,第一资源也可以包括在接入所述第二小区进程中用于发送随机接入消息3的资源。又一种可选地实施方式中,第一资源也可以包括在接入所述第二小区进程中用于接收随机接入消息2的应答消息的资源。又一种可选地实施方式中,第一资源也可以包括在接入所述第二小区进程中用于接收随机接入消息4的应答消息的资源。本申请实施例中,随机接入过程分四部,可以对应四个消息,其中,随机接入消息1是指随机接入过程中的第1个消息,随机接入消息2是指随机接入过程中的第2个消息,随机接入消息3是指随机接入过程中的第3个消息,随机接入消息4是指随机接入过程中的第4个消息。
方案e5,所述第一资源包括:所述终端设备接收系统消息所采用的SSB。
本申请实施例中,将接收系统消息所采用的SSB的资源作为第一资源,可以理解为终端设备通过哪个SSB接收系统消息,就可以采用哪个SSB的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束。
方案e6,所述第一资源包括:所述第二小区的路损测量参考信号资源。
在方案e6中,将一个路损测量参考信号资源(Reference signal resources for road loss  measurement)作为第一资源,可以理解为将该路损测量参考信号资源对应的接收波束作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。或者理解为:将该路损测量参考信号资源作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的参考信号资源。
路损测量参考信号资源有一个或多个,当路损测量参考信号资源有多个的情况下,所述终端设备可以根据所述第二小区的路损测量参考信号资源的以下内容中的一项或多项,确定所述第一资源:
路损测量参考信号资源的索引值;
路损测量参考信号资源的路损测量值;
路损测量参考信号资源的质量;
路损测量参考信号资源的测量周期;
路损测量参考信号资源的测量时间。
本申请实施例中,路损测量参考信号资源是指用于测量路损的参考信号资源。PUCCH,PUSCH和SRS都有对应的路损测量参考信号资源。
针对SRS来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第二小区中的SRS所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第一资源。当第二小区中有多个用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第一资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最大或最小的作为第一资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第二小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
针对PUCCH来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第二小区中的PUCCH所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第一资源。当第二小区中有多个用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于PUCCH的功控参数(PUCCH-PowerControl)中包括的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第一资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最小的作为第一资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第二小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
针对PUSCH来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第二小区中的PUSCH所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第一资源。当第二小区中有多个用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于PUSCH的功控参数(PUSCH-PowerControl)中包括的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第一资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最小的作为第一资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第二小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
可选的,也可以选择第二小区中PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第一资源,来确定PUCCH和SRS传输的发送波束;或者,也可以选择第二小区中PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第一资源,来确定PUSCH和SRS传输的发送波束;也可以选择第二小区中SRS的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第一资源,来确定PUCCH和PUSCH传输的发送波束。
终端设备可以选择上述方案e1至e6中的任意一种。也可以根据优先级进行选择,即优先选择一种,如果该种方案的条件不满足,才选择另一种。例如,优先选择e2,如果e2的条件不满足,则选择e4。例如,优先采用所述终端设备在所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量(bandwidth part)中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源,即用于指示该控制资源集合对应的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息的参考信号资源。如果,上述控制资源集合没有激活的TCI-state,或第二小区的控制资源集合都没有激活TCI-state,则采用所述终端设备在所述第二小区进行初始接入过程时,所采用的同步信号-广播信道测量资源块(Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block,SSB)资源。
在上述步骤202中,所述终端设备在所述第一小区进行上行传输,可以包括多种。比如,一种可能地实施方式中,该上行传输为PUCCH上行传输。再比如,该上行传输为PUSCH上行传输。再比如,该上行传输为探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)上行传输。
一种可选地实施方式中,上述步骤202中,PUCCH上行传输可以是dedicated PUCCH。又一种可选地实施方式中,SRS上行传输可以是特定类型的SRS。例如用于基于码本的上行传输的SRS(即usage参数为codebook的SRS resource set中的SRS),或用于天线选择的SRS(即usage参数为antenna Switching的SRS resource set中的SRS)。
本申请实施例中,除了通过上述步骤201中的第二小区的第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系之外,还可以通过其他方式来确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。比如可以通过下述方案f1和方案f2来确定。
方案f1,通过第一小区的第二资源来确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
在方案f1中,比如,可以采用第一小区的路损测量参考信号来确定上行传输的发送波束,可选的,条件是第一小区中配置了上行传输的路损资源。
方案f2,根据网络设备下发的用于该终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系,进行上行传输。
可选地,网络设备下发的用于使该终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系可以携带在下行信令中,如RRC信令,媒体接入控制控制元素(Media Access Control Control Element,MAC CE)信令或下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)信令。
上述方案f1、方案f2和上述步骤201所提供的三种方案可以选择其一,用于确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。也可以为该三个方案设置不同的使用条件,比如在什么条件下使用方案f1、什么条件下使用方案f2,什么条件下使用上述步骤201提供的方案。
一种可能地实施方式中,可以优先根据上述方案f1去确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,而当无法找到一个合适的第一小区的第二资源来确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系时(例如没有配置上行测量对应的路损测量参考信号资源时),则根据上述步骤201提 供的方案去确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,而在无法找到一个合适的第二小区的第一资源来确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系时(例如根据步骤201确定的第二小区的频率为FR1时),则通过上述方案f2确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。也就是说,如果终端设备无法参考本小区的第二资源(例如没有配置上行测量对应的路损测量参考信号资源时)且无法参考第二小区的第一资源(例如根据步骤201确定的第二小区的频率为FR1时)来确定上行传输的空间关系,那么网络设备就必须为终端设备明确指示上行传输的空间关系。
又一种可能地实施方式中,优先根据上述方案f1去确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,当无法找到一个合适的第一小区的第二资源来确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系时(例如没有配置上行测量对应的路损测量参考信号资源时),则通过上述方案f2确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,即如果本小区没有可以参考的路损测量参考信号资源,那么网络设备就必须为终端设备明确指示上行传输的空间关系。
又一种可能地实施方式中,优先根据上述步骤201提供的方案去确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,而在无法找到一个合适的第二小区的第一资源来确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系时(例如根据步骤201确定的第二小区的频率为FR1时),则通过上述方案f2确定第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。也就是说,如果终端设备无法参考第二小区的第一资源来确定上行传输的空间关系,例如根据步骤201确定的第二小区的频率为FR1时,那么网络设备就必须为终端设备明确指示上行传输的空间关系。
在上述步骤201中,一种可能地实施方式中,满足第二条件的情况下才通过所述第二小区中的所述第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,而不满足第二条件的话就不能通过上述步骤201去确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,或者说,不满足第二条件的话可以通过除上述步骤201之外的其它方式(比如上述方案f1或方案f2)去确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。当然,满足第二条件通过上述步骤202去获取终端设备的上行传输的空间关系仅仅是一种可选地实施方式,也可以在满足第二条件时,通过上述方案f2去获取终端设备的上行传输的空间关系。
第二条件的实施方式有多种,下面通过条件g1、条件g2、条件g3、条件g4和条件g5列举了几种第二条件的可能地实现方式。
条件g1:第二条件可以包括:第一小区中未配置所述上行传输的空间关系。
条件g2:第二条件可以包括:第一小区未配置CORESET。
条件g3:第二条件可以包括:第一小区当前激活的下行频率带宽分量中未配置CORESET。
条件g4:第二条件可以包括:所述第一小区当前激活的下行频率带宽分量中没有激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state。
条件g5:第二条件可以包括:在第一小区当中没有激活用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state。
条件g6:第二条件可以包括:在第一小区中未配置路损测量参考信号资源。
条件g7:第二条件可以包括:第一小区为辅小区,第一小区对应的主小区的频率为FR2。
条件g8:第二条件可以包括:第一小区为辅小区,第一小区对应的调度小区的频率为FR2。
条件g9:第二条件可以包括:第一小区为辅小区,第一小区对应的主小区与第一小区 具有相同的子载波间隔。
条件g10:第二条件可以包括:第一小区为辅小区,第一小区对应的调度小区与第一小区具有相同的子载波间隔。
条件g11:第二条件可以包括:终端设备具有上下行波束互易性,例如终端设备上报了beamCorrespondenceWithoutUL-BeamSweeping能力。
需要注意的是,上述条件g1至条件g11可以单独使用,比如,单独使用条件g1,当第一小区中未配置所述上行传输的空间关系,则终端设备通过所述第二小区中的所述第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
当然,上述条件g1至条件g11中的多项可以组合使用,比如条件g1、条件g2和条件g4组合使用,则上述步骤201具体包括:在第一小区中未配置所述上行传输的空间关系,且所述第一小区未配置CORESET和所述第一小区当前激活的下行频率带宽分量中没有激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state的情况下,所述终端设备通过所述第二小区中的所述第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
比如条件g1、条件g2、条件g4和条件g7组合使用,则上述步骤201具体包括:在第一小区中未配置所述上行传输的空间关系,且所述第一小区未配置CORESET和所述第一小区当前激活的下行频率带宽分量中没有激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state,且第一小区对应的主小区的频率是属于FR2的情况下,所述终端设备通过所述第二小区(即第一小区的主小区)中的所述第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
又比如条件g2、条件g5、条件g7组合使用,一种可选地实施方式中:“第一小区对应的主小区的频率为FR2,且所述第一小区未配置CORESET和在第一小区当中没有激活用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state,可以根据辅小区当前激活的频率带宽分量(bandwidth part)中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小的CORESET对应的QCL中的参考信号资源,确定SRS上行传输的空间关系。”
该可选的实施方式对应英文可以为:“For a CC in FR2,if no CORESET is configured and no TCI-state is activated,the default spatial relation for SRS is determined by QCL assumption of the CORESET with the lowest ID in the most recent monitored downlink slot within the active BWP on PCell。”
上述实施例中将条件g2、条件g5和条件g7余前述选择第一资源的方案相结合,此处仅仅是一种示例,并不具有限定意义。该示例中,“索引最小的CORESET对应的QCL中的参考信号资源”,一种可选地实施方式可以为:索引最小的CORESET当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源(例如typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。
再比如,比如条件g1、条件g2、条件g5和条件g6组合使用,则上述步骤201具体包括:在第一小区中未配置所述上行传输的空间关系和路损测量参考信号资源,且:所述第一小区未配置CORESET,所述第一小区中没有激活用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state的情况下,所述终端设备通过所述第二小区中的所述第一资源确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系。
上述内容还提到,不满足第二条件的话可以通过除上述步骤201之外的其它方式(比如上述方案f1或方案f2)去确定所述第一小区的上行传输的空间关系,举个例子,比如条件g6单独使用,则终端设备具有上下行波束互易性时,执行上述步骤201。可选地,当终端设备不具有上下行波束互易性时,执行上述方案f2。
针对上述方案f2,一种可选地实施方式中,可以设置网络设备侧下发终端设备的空间关系的规则,比如网络设备可以在满足第三条件的情况下,向终端设备下发用于使该终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系。可以看出,网络设备在满足第三条件的情况下,才向终端设备下发用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系。减少了网络设备下发空间关系的频率,减少了信令开销。
又一种实施方式中,网络设备在用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系发生更新的情况下,且在满足第三条件的情况下,向终端设备下发用于使该终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系。可以看出,网络设备在用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系发生更新的情况下,在满足第三条件时,才向终端设备下发用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系。并非像现有技术中一样,用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系发生更新则下发用于使终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的空间关系。如此,可以减少了网络设备下发空间关系的频率,减少了信令开销。
其中,第三条件可以是预设的规则,比如,第三条件可以包括:第一小区是辅小区,且第一小区对应的主小区的频率为FR1,且第一小区没有配置CORESET,且第一小区没有激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state。再比如,第三条件可以包括:所述第一小区未配置CORESET,所述第一小区未配置用于PDSCH的激活状态TCI-state。再比如,第三条件可以包括:终端设备不具有上下行波束互易性。该示例中,当终端设备具有上下行波束互易性时,才可以将第一资源或第二资源的接收波束确定为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
针对上述方案f1中,第一小区的资源有多种,具体参考哪一种可以有多种选择。本申请实施例中将参考的属于第一小区的资源称为第二资源。下面通过方案h1、方案h2和方案h3提供几种可能地第二资源的确定方案。
方案h1,所述第二资源包括:所述终端设备在所述第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中的索引最小或最大的控制资源集合中,用于指示物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息的参考信号资源。
在上述方案h1中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合,可以是指最近一次在一个时隙内侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合。
本申请实施例中,在上述方案h1中,准共址可以是指typeD的准共址。用于指示物理下行控制信道的准共址信息的参考信号资源,可以具体是指该CORESET当前激活的TCI-state的typeD的QCL-info中的参考信号资源,或者,可以指该CORESET对应的PDCCH传输所参考的参考信号资源。本申请实施例中,可以采用参考信号资源具体可以是指采用参考信号资源的接收波束来作为该CORESET对应的PDCCH的接收波束。
在一种可能地实施方式中,当采用第一小区的PDCCH的接收波束来作为在第一小区的上行传输的发送波束(发送波束可以理解为空间关系)的情况下,由于PDCCH的接收波束是通过PDCCH对应的CORESET的TCI-state来确定的。因此,当第一小区配置有多个CORESET时,可以具体采用其中一个CORESET的TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。比如,可以采用配置的多个CORESET中,索引最小或最大的CORESET的TCI-state中的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的发送波束。
方案h2,所述第二资源包括:所述第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下 行共享信道(Physical Downlink Sharing Channel,PDSCH)传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中的参考信号资源。
又可以存在一种可选地实施方式,所述第二资源包括:所述第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,激活的用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。
又可以存在一种可选地实施方式,所述第二资源包括:所述第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中typeA类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源。
本申请实施例中,将一个TCI-state中的参考信号资源作为第二资源,可以理解为将该TCI-state对应的接收波束作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。比如当通过方案h2确定出第二资源后,终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输时,将第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state中的参考信号资源的接收波束作为发送波束。
在一种可能地实施方式中,当采用第一小区的PDSCH的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束的情况下,由于PDSCH的接收波束也是通过TCI-state来确定的,可选地,网络设备会先为PDSCH激活多个TCI-state,每个TCI-state与PDCCH中的TCI字段的一个字段值是对应的。在进行PDSCH传输之前,网络设备向终端设备发送PDCCH,通过PDCCH中的TCI字段来指示其中一个TCI-state,这样终端设备就可以知道PDSCH所采用的TCI-state了。采用PDSCH的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束,也可以表述为采用PDSCH的TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。由于网络设备可能为终端设备激活多个TCI-state,因此可以采用其中的一个TCI-state来确定上行传输的发送波束。一种可选地实施方式中,可以采用第一小区当前激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state中的一个TCI-state中的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的发送波束,比如,可以采用TCI-state最小或最大的那个TCI-state中的参考信号资源,再比如,也可以采用对应TCI字段值最小或最大的那个TCI-state中的参考信号资源。
方案h3,所述第二资源包括:所述第一小区的路损测量参考信号资源。
在方案h3中,将一个路损测量参考信号资源作为第二资源,可以理解为将该路损测量参考信号资源对应的接收波束作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。或者理解为:将该路损测量参考信号资源作为终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的参考信号资源。
路损测量参考信号资源有一个或多个,当路损测量参考信号资源有多个的情况下,所述终端设备可以根据所述第一小区的路损测量参考信号资源的以下内容中的一项或多项,确定所述第二资源:
路损测量参考信号资源的索引值;
路损测量参考信号资源的路损;
路损测量参考信号资源的质量;
路损测量参考信号资源的测量周期;
路损测量参考信号资源的测量时间。
本申请实施例中,路损测量参考信号资源是指用于测量路损的参考信号资源。PUCCH,PUSCH和SRS都有对应的路损测量参考信号资源。
针对SRS来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第一小区中的SRS所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第二资源。当第一小区中有多个用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第二资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于SRS的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最大或最小的作为第二资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第一小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
针对PUCCH来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第一小区中的PUCCH所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第二资源。当第一小区中有多个用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于PUCCH的功控参数(PUCCH-PowerControl)中包括的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第二资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最小的作为第二资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第一小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
针对PUSCH来说,上述方案e5中,可以将第一小区中的PUSCH所采用的路损测量参考信号资源作为第二资源。当第一小区中有多个用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源时,可以选择其中一个。比如,可以选择用于PUSCH的功控参数(PUSCH-PowerControl)中包括的路损测量参考信号资源中索引最大或最小的一个,或者选择路损测量值最小的一个,而当路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源有多个时,可以继续从路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择出一个作为第二资源,比如从路损测量值最小的用于PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源中选择索引值最小的作为第二资源。也就是说,上述根据所述第一小区的路损测量参考信号资源的索引值、路损测量值、质量、测量周期和测量时间等一项或多项参数来选择路损测量参考信号资源。
可选的,也可以选择第一小区中PUSCH的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第二资源,来确定PUCCH和SRS传输的发送波束;或者,也可以选择第一小区中PUCCH的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第二资源,来确定PUSCH和SRS传输的发送波束;也可以选择第一小区中SRS的路损测量参考信号资源来作为第二资源,来确定PUCCH和PUSCH传输的发送波束。
需要注意的是,本申请实施例中上述几种确定第二资源的方案可以单独使用,当然也可以组合使用,并设置各个方案的优先级。
举个例子,若第一小区配置了路损测量参考信号资源,则采用路损测量参考信号资源作为第二资源,否则,则可以采用上述方案h1或方案h2确定第二资源。
再举个例子,无论第一小区是否配置了路损测量参考信号资源,采用上述方案h1或方案h2确定第二资源。
再举个例子,优先采用上述方案h1,若第一小区未配置CORESET,则次使用上述方案h2,若根据上述方案h2也确定不出满足要求的第二资源,则在第一小区配置了路损测 量参考信号资源的情况下,采用上述方案h3来确定第二资源。
再举个例子,优先采用上述方案h1,若第一小区未配置CORESET,则次使用上述方案h2,若根据上述方案h2也确定不出满足要求的第二资源,则采用上述步骤201所提供的方法来确定出第一资源,并根据第一资源进行上行传输。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中依据第二小区的第一资源的接收波束去确定终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束,当第一资源的接收波束发生更新,则终端设备会依据更新后的第二小区的第一资源的接收波束去确定终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。另一种可选地实施方式中,本申请实施例中依据第一小区的第二资源的接收波束去确定终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束,当第二资源的接收波束发生更新,则终端设备会依据更新后的第一小区的第二资源的接收波束去确定终端设备在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
对于上述各种用于确定终端设备的上行传输的空间关系的方法,网络设备可以通过RRC信令,或MAC CE信令或DCI信令向终端设备指示具体采用哪种方法。当然也可以具体指示几种确定终端设备的上行传输的空间关系的方法的优先级,或者说适用条件。可选的,上述方法也可以用于确定第一小区的PDSCH的接收波束。即将上述方法中的上行传输的空间关系替换为PDSCH传输的接收波束或PDSCH传输的QCL信息(如typeD的QCL信息)即可。可选的,另一种方法是,如果第一小区的上行传输与该上行传输对应的PDCCH的子载波间隔相同,则采用所述终端设备在所述第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中的索引最小或最大的控制资源集合中,用于指示物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的空间关系。可选的,另一种方法是,如果第一小区的上行传输通过第二小区来调度,且第一小区上行传输与第二小区下行传输的子载波间隔不同,则采用第一小区中激活的用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的TCI-state来确定上行传输的空间关系。
本申请实施例可以用于基于单站(single transmission and reception point,single TRP)的上行传输,也可以适用于多站(multiple TRP)传输场景。上述示例基于单站进行介绍,当基于多站时,可以对上述方法进行改进,使其能适用于多站传输的场景。下面对于多站场景进行示例性说明。
例如,上述方案e2中,采用所述终端设备在所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量bandwidth part中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源来确定PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS传输的空间关系。可以对上述方法进行进一步限定,即采用与所述PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS关联的控制资源集合中索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源来确定PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS传输的空间关系。例如,采用所述终端设备在所述第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量bandwidth part中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个与所述PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS关联的控制资源集合中,与索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源来确定所述PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS传输的空间关系。
PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS和控制资源集合关联关系可以是直接关联的,例如一个PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS可以关联一个CORESET(如关联一个CORESET索引),或一个CORESET可以关联一个PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS(如关联一个PUCCH资源索引)。 PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS和控制资源集合可以通过关联相同的其他索引来实现。例如,每个CORESET可以关联一个第一索引值,如CORESETPoolIndex。第一索引值的值可以是0或1,分别对应一个TRP。PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS也可以关联一个第二索引,如PUCCH Resource-CORESETpoolIndex,第二索引的值为0或1。当一个CORESET关联的第一索引值的值与一个PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS关联的第二索引的值相同时,可以认为该COREEST和该PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS是关联的。上述第一索引值和第二所以可以是同一个索引,也可以是不同的索引。本申请实施例中“/”是“或”的意思,比如“PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS”是指“PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS”是指“PUCCH、PUSCH或SRS”。
又一种可能地实施方式中,在多站传输中,PDSCH可以采用两个TCI-state进行传输。这时,DCI中的TCI字段的一个值是对应了两个TCI-state的。因此,可以对上述方案e3进行进一步扩展来指示多站传输场景。比如,可以从第二小区中激活的多组(每组包括两个TCI-state)用于PDSCH传输的TCI-state中,选择对应TCI字段值最小或最大的那组TCI-state,来确定上行传输的发送波束。或者,当PDCCH采用多个下行波束发送时,可以采用这几个发送波束对应的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束。
在另一种方法中,如果第一小区是Pcell,或PScell,或MCG下的PUCCH-Scell,那么第一小区采用其下行控制信道的接收波束来作为上行传输的发送波束。即采用第一小区中,例如第一小区当前激活的频率带宽分量(bandwidth part)中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源(例如typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源),即用于指示该控制资源集合对应的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息(如typeD类型的准共址信息)的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的空间关系/发送波束。也就是说,采用上述控制资源集合对应的PDCCH的空间接收参数/接收波束来作为第一小区的上行传输的空间发送参数/发送波束。
而如果第一小区的SCG下的PUCCH-Scell,则采用Pscell作为上述第二小区。采用该第二小区中,例如第二小区当前激活的频率带宽分量(bandwidth part)中,最近一次侦听到的一个或多个控制资源集合中,索引最小或最大的控制资源集合当前激活的TCI-state对应的参考信号资源(例如typeD类型的QCL-info中的参考信号资源),即用于指示该控制资源集合对应的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的准共址信息(如typeD类型的准共址信息)的参考信号资源来确定上行传输的空间关系/发送波束。也就是说,采用上述控制资源集合对应的PDCCH的空间接收参数/接收波束来作为第一小区的上行传输的空间发送参数/发送波束。
基于上述内容,本申请实施例中还提供以下内容对本申请实施例进行说明。
上述图2相关的方案可以适用于单站场景,也可适用于多站场景,单站场景是指采用一个传输接收站点(Transmission and reception Point,TRP)向终端设备传输下行数据,终端设备向一个TRP传输上行数据。多站场景是指多个TRP向终端设备传输下行数据,终端设备也可以向多个TRP传输上行数据。本申请实施例提到的多站场景中可以是基于多个DCI的多TRP传输场景,具体来说,可以是在一个传输时间单元(如一个时隙内),网络设备通过多个DCI来向同一终端设备传输PDSCH。每个DCI可以对应一个TRP,调度一个PDSCH。由于在R16协议中,不会直接出现TRP的概念,因此本申请实施例中可以通过多个CORESET组来体现多个TRP的传输场景。本申请实施例中的控制资源集合组也可 以写为CORESET组。
一种可能的实施方式中,当为终端设备配置有多个CORESET组,则所述多组CORESET组中的每个CORESET组包括一个或多个CORESET,一个CORESET组中包括的CORESET的第一索引值相同;来自两个不同CORESET组的CORESET的第一索引值不同。也就是说,网络设备可以终端设备配置多个CORESET,每个CORESET可以分别关联一个第一索引值(如CORESETPoolIndex)。则关联的第一索引值相同的CORESET可以视为一个CORESET组。例如,配置多个CORESET,这些CORESET分别关联一个第一索引值,有的CORSET关联的第一索引值为0,有的CORESET关联的第一索引值为1,因此配置的CORESET分为两组,其中一个CORESET组中包括的CORESET关联的第一索引值均为0,另一个CORESET组中包括的CORESET关联的第一索引值均为1。
一种可选地实施方式中,当确定网络设备为终端设备所配置的所有CORESET共关联了两个不同的第一索引值,即可以确定终端设备配置的所有CORESET分属于两个不同的CORESET组,则可以确定该终端设备处于多站场景,也可以描述为网络设备和终端设备之间采用基于多个DCI的多TRP传输模式。
应理解,本申请实施例中,确定上行传输的空间关系可以理解为确定上行传输的发送波束。本申请实施例中的波束可以是协议中的“Spatial setting”。
除了前述内容中提供的几种确定上行传输的空间关系的方案之外,针对上述步骤201,本申请实施例再通过下述方案i1、方案i2、方案i3、方案i4和方案i5来介绍几种确定上行传输的空间关系的方案。
方案i1,采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
方案i2,采用调度所述上行传输的PDCCH的接收波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
方案i3,采用所述上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源(Reference signal resources for road loss measurement)的接收波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
方案i4,采用调度所述上行传输的PDCCH所属的CORESET组中索引最小或最大的CORESET对应的PDCCH的接收波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
方案i5,采用配置的/最近一次侦听的所述上行传输关联的CORESET组中索引最小或最大的CORESET对应的PDCCH的接收波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
一种可选地实施方式中,在上述方案i5中,一个上行传输可以关联一个CORESET组,具体可以包括以下三种情况:1、该上行传输关联一个CORESET,该CORESET属于一个CORESET组,该CORESET组即为与该上行传输关联的CORESET组;2、该上行传输关联一个第二索引值,一个CORESET组关联一个第一索引值,当该第一索引值与该第二索引值相同时,表示该上行传输关联该CORESET组。3、该上行传输关联一个第一索引值,一个CORESET组也关联一个第一索引值,关联的第一索引值相同的上行传输和CORESET组具有关联关系。
上述方案i1、方案i2和方案i3可以适用于单站场景下,也可以适用于多站场景下。上述方案i4和方案i5适用于多站的场景。
上述方案i2、方案i3、方案i4和方案i5中也可以描述为采用第一波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。第一波束可以有多种选择方案,比如上述方案i2、方案i3、 方案i4和方案i5中提到的可以作为上行传输的发送波束的波束。
在上述步骤201中,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,可以从上述方案i1、方案i2、方案i3、方案i4和方案i5中选择一个方案进行上行传输。
另一种可选地实施方式中,对于上述每一种确定上行传输的空间关系的方法(例如上述方案i1、方案i2等等),可以通过RRC来进行配置。例如,可以通过一个RRC信令中的参数来开启一种确定上行传输的空间关系的方案。或者通过一个RRC信令中的参数来指示在上述确定上行传输的空间关系的多种方案中选择一种。
第三种可选地实施方式中,对于上述每一种确定上行传输的空间关系的方法(例如上述方案i1、方案i2等等),可以通过终端设备能力上报过程来上报是否支持该种方法。可选地,可以通过终端设备能力上报过程来上报终端设备具体支持多种方法中的那一种。
第四种可选地实施方式中,可以为上述确定上行传输的空间关系的方法(例如上述方案i1、方案i2等等)设定条件,下面通过方案j1和方案j2进行示例性说明。
方案j1,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,则采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
一种实施上述方案j1的方式可以为:若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束,则采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。可以理解为,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,若网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束,则必须采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。
另一种实施上述方案j1的方式可以为:若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,则只能采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束。可以理解为,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,无论网络设备是否配置的上行传输的发送波束,终端设备都仅能采用网络设备配置的上行传输的发送波束作为在第一小区进行上行传输的发送波束,而不能有其它选择(比如,不可以采用第一波束作为该上行传输的发送波束)。
也可以有另外一种实施方案,若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,则网络设备必须为所述终端设备的上行传输配置发送波束。本申请实施例中网络设备配置的上行传输的空间关系也可以理解为网络设备指示的上行传输的空间关系。
对于上述方案j1进行举例,如果网络设备为终端设备配置的所有CORESET(例如配置在PDCCH-Config中的CORESET)共关联了两个不同的第一索引值(如CORESETPoolI ndex),则限定终端设备的PUSCH只能通过类型为format 0_1的DCI来调度(format 0_1指示上行传输波束),或限定终端设备的PUSCH不能通过类型为format 0_0的DCI来调度(format 0_0不指示上行传输波束),或限定网络设备必须为终端设备指示上行传输的SRS资源/空间关系。进一步,一种可选地实施方式中,对于同一个PUCCH、PUSCH或SRS,还可以进一步限定网络设备为终端设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考资源与配置的上行传输的空间关系中的参考资源是相同的,这种情况下,则终端设备必须选择网络设备为终端设备配置的上行传输的空间关系中的参考资源作为上行传输的路损测量参考资源。
上述方案j1仅仅是以上述方案i1加上了一个实施条件后的示例。可选地,也可以为上述方案i2至方案i5加上实施条件,比如,无论网络设备是否配置上行传输的空间关系,则都必须采用上述方案i2至方案i5中的一种方案确定终端设备的上行传输的空间关系。 下述方案j2也示例了一种确定上行传输的空间关系的例子。
方案j2,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,且若满足以下条件中的一项或多项,则可以采用第一波束作为上行传输的发送波束,在第一小区进行所述上行传输:
所述网络设备未为终端设备配置所述上行传输的发送波束:
网络设备未为终端设备配置所述上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源;
网络设备指示终端设备可以采用其它发送波束或接收波束作为所述上行传输的发送波束,例如配置了参数enableDefaultBeamPlForPUSCH0_0/enableDefaultBeamPlForPUCCH/enableDefaultBeamPlForSRS;
终端设备具有波束一致性,例如终端设备通过上报终端能力参数(例如beamCorrespondenceWithoutUL-BeamSweeping)以体现终端设备具有波束一致性(beam Correspondence)。
上述方案j2中,也可以描述为,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,且若满足以下条件中的一项或多项,则可以采用上述方案i2、方案i3、方案i4和方案i5中的一个方案来确定上行传输的空间关系。
上述方案j2中,一种可选地实施方式中,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,且若满足方案j2提到的条件中的一项或多项,则必须采用第一波束作为上行传输的发送波束,在第一小区进行所述上行传输。
在上述步骤202之前,本申请实施例中还包括:确定路损测量参考信号资源。本申请实施例提供几种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方案,具体可参见下述方案k1、方案k2、方案k3、方案k4和方案k5。
方案k1,采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。

方案k3,采用调度所述上行传输的PDCCH所属的CORESET组中索引最小或最大的CORESET的TCI-state中的typeD类型的QCL(QCL-info类型为typeA、typeB、type或typeD的QCL-info)参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。
方案k4,采用所述上行传输关联的CORESET组中索引最小或最大的CORESET(例如可以是最近一次或最近一个时隙侦听的属于该CORESET组的CORESET中索引最小或最大的CORESET)对应的PDCCH的TCI-state中的typeD类型的QCL(QCL-info类型为typeA、typeB、type或typeD的QCL-info)参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。
方案k5,所述上行传输的空间关系中的参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。

当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中的K个TCI-state中的参考信号资源;
当前激活的频率带宽分量中,用于物理下行共享信道传输的TCI-state中索引最小或最大的K个TCI-state中的参考信号资源。
本申请实施例中提到的终端设备配置的CORESET可以是第一小区的CORESET,也可以是其他小区的CORESET。其他小区可以是指Pcell、PScell、PUCCH-Scell(例如MCG下的PUCCH-Scell,SCG下的PUCCH-Scell),或者当前小区的调度小区等等。K的值可以通过RRC/MAC CE/DCI信令来指示,也可以通过UE能力上报过程来上报。如果是RRC配置的,K可以是必选的参数,也可以是可选的参数。K的上限值可以是1至64中的任意一个。K可能的取值可以是{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,12,16,32,64}或其子集。K未配置时,采用默认值,该默认值可以是1至64中的任意一个。
上述方案k1、方案k2和方案k5可以适用于单站场景下,也可以适用于多站场景下。上述方案k3、方案k4和方案k6适用于多站的场景。
上述方案k2、方案k3、方案k4和方案k5中也可以描述为采用第三资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。第三资源可以有多种选择方案,比如上述方案k2、方案k3、方案k4、方案k5和方案k6中提到的可以作为上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源的资源。
在上述步骤201中,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,可以从上述方案k1、方案k2、方案k3、方案k4、方案k5和方案k6中选择一个方案确定路损测量参考信号资源。
另一种可选地实施方式中,对于上述每一种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方法(例如上述方案k1、方案k2等等),可以通过RRC来进行配置。例如,可以通过一个RRC信令中的参数来使能一种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方案。或者通过一个RRC信令中的参数来指示在上述确定路损测量参考信号资源的多种方案中选择一种。
第三种可选地实施方式中,对于上述每一种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方法(例如上述方案k1、方案k2等等),可以通过终端设备能力上报过程来上报终端设备所支持的一种或多种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方法。可选地,可以通过终端设备能力上报过程来上报终端设备所选用的一种确定路损测量参考信号资源的方法。
第四种可选地实施方式中,可以为上述确定路损测量参考信号资源的方法(例如上述方案k1、方案k2等等)设定条件,下面通过方案l1和方案l2进行示例性说明。
方案l1,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,则采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。
一种实施上述方案l1的方式可以为:若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源,则采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。可以理解为,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,若网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源,则必须采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行 传输的路损测量参考信号资源。
另一种实施上述方案l1的方式可以为:若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,则只能采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。可以理解为,当终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,无论网络设备是否配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源,终端设备都仅能采用网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源作为在第一小区进行上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源,而不能有其它选择(比如,不可以采用其它信号资源作为该上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源)。
也可以有另外一种描述,若终端设备配置有多组控制资源集合组,则网络设备必须为所述终端设备的上行传输配置路损测量参考信号资源。本申请实施例中网络设备配置的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源也可以理解为网络设备指示的上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源。
上述方案l1仅仅是以上述方案k1加上了一个实施条件后的示例。可选地,也可以为上述方案k2至方案k6加上实施条件,比如,下述方案l2所示的例子。
方案l2,在配置有多组控制资源集合组的情况下,且若满足以下条件中的一项或多项,则可以采用第三资源作为上行传输的路损测量参考信号资源:
