一种进行定位的方法、终端及网络侧设备
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请要求在2019年11月11日提交中国专利局、申请号为201911094955.7、申请名称为“一种进行定位的方法、终端及网络侧设备”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
本发明涉及通信技术领域,特别涉及一种进行定位的方法、终端及网络侧设备。
背景技术
目前无线通信领域主要有两种通信方式:
经由网络的通信方式和直接通信方式。
1、经由网络的通信方式;
传统的经由网络通信的方式如图1所示,其中基站和终端设备(user equipment,UE)之间使用Uu接口(基站和终端的无线接口),图1中以UE1和UE2为例:
对于经由网络的通信方式,发送终端(UE)如果要发送数据,那么数据首先通过终端和其服务基站之间的Uu接口发送给基站,然后基站将接收端到的数据经由核心网设备送到外部服务器,由外部服务器判断数据是否需要发送给其他终端,如果需要,则将数据转发给接收终端的服务基站,接收终端的服务基站再将数据通过Uu接口发送给接收终端。
2、直接通信方式;
直接通信的方式如图2所示:
终端之间采用设备到设备(Device to Device,D2D)技术实现直接通信。
车与万物(Vehicle-to-Everything,V2X)通信是目前通信领域一个热门议 题。V2X通信主要包含三方面内容:车到车(Vehicle-to-Vehicle,V2V):车上的车载单元(On Broad Unit,OBU)之间的通信。车到网络(Vehicle-to-Infrastructure,V2I):车和RSU(Road Side Unit,路侧设备)之间的通信。V2P(Vehicle-to-Pedestrian,车到行人):车和行人之间的通信。
目前,在上述1中所示的经由网络的通信方式中,定义了多种对终端进行定位的方式,例如第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)定义的通过测量3GPP无线通信系统的自身定位参考信号(Positioning Reference Signal,PRS)的UE定位方法,例如到达时间差定位法(Observed Time Difference of Arrival,OTDOA),上行到达时间差(Uplink Time Difference of Arrival,UTDOA)等等,但上述方式都依赖于多个基站对一个终端进行定位。
现有使用上述方式对终端进行定位的流程比较繁琐,需要根据多个基站来确定终端的绝对位置,而在V2X通信场景中,需要获取车与车之间的相对位置,目前还没有针对V2X场景的定位方式。

具体实施方式
为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例中的技术方案,下面将对实施例描述中所需要使用的附图作简要介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本发 明的一些实施例,对于本领域的普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动性的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。
现有3GPP定义了多种对终端进行定位的方式,例如OTDOA,UL-TDOA等。下面以UL-TDOA为例,对现有经由网络通信的场景下对终端进行定位的方式进行说明:
如图3所述,为通过UL-TDOA方式对UE进行定位的应用场景示意图。图3所示的通信系统包括演进型基站(Evolved NodeB,eNB)1、eNB2、eNB3和UE1,基于该通信系统使用UL-TDOA方式进行定位的流程如下:
步骤1:UE1同时向eNB1、eNB2和eNB3发送上行定位参考信息PRS;
如图3所述,UE1同时向eNB1、eNB2和eNB3发送上行定位参考信息PRS,其中,eNB1接收该PRS的时间为T1(即接收时刻),eNB2接收该PRS的时间为T2,eNB3接收该PRS的时间为T3,上述T1、T2和T3皆为基站接收到PRS的时刻,但在实际应用中,基站仅记录T1、T2、T3和当前定时基准点的差异,比如基站预期在符号1接收PRS,但实际上PRS的到达时间是偏移符号1的时间1us,则认为传输距离经历的时间长度1us,基站可以把时间偏移值传递到定位服务器,进行定位位置计算。
步骤2:由定位服务器测量eNB1、eNB2和eNB3中各相邻俩基站之间的时间差;
由定位服务器(可以是eNB1、eNB2或eNB3中的任一个,或是eNB1、eNB2和eNB3之外的一个独立的装置)测量各相邻基站两两之间的相对时间差,即基站1与基站2接收到该PRS的相对时间差T1-T2。基站1与基站3接收到该PRS的相对时间差T1-T3。基站2与基站3接收到该PRS的相对时间差T2-T3。可选的,定位服务器接收各个基站在检测PRS时获得到达时间差进行定位计算。
步骤3:定位服务器根据eNB1、eNB2和eNB3三个基站的地理位置和相对时间差T1-T2,T1-T3和T2-T3推算出UE的地理位置(绝对位置)。
比如,举一个简单的例子,假设eNB1、eNB2和eNB3分别位于同一个 等边三角形的其中一个顶点,且T1-T2,T1-T3和T2-T3的值都为0,则定位服务器确定该UE1处于eNB1、eNB2和eNB3形成的等边三角形的中心位置。
现有,对于在经由网络的通信系统中,对于终端进行定位时需要终端与多个基站进行信息交互,多个基站之间也可能需要进行信息交互,以此来对终端进行定位,来获取终端的绝对位置,而对于V2X通信而言,车与车之间要确定对端的位置信息时,若使用上述定位方式,则需要两车同时向各自相邻的多个基站发送定位参考信号,再由两侧的基站或两终端之间交互各自的绝对位置信息,定位流程复杂,现有还没有对V2X终端进行定位的方案。
鉴于此,本申请实施例提供了一种进行定位的方法,第一终端接收定位辅助信息,并根据定位辅助信息来确定第二终端相对于第一终端的位置信息,不需要依赖多个基站来获取第一终端自身的位置信息和第二终端的位置信息,提供了一种适用于V2X场景的终端之间进行定位的方式。
本申请实施例提供的技术方案可以应用于5G系统,或者应用于未来的通信系统或其他类似的通信系统。另外,本申请实施例提供的技术方案可以应用于蜂窝链路,也可以应用于设备间的链路,例如D2D链路。D2D链路或V2X链路,也可以称为侧行链路(sidelink),其中侧行链路也可以称为边链路、副链路或直连通道等。在本申请实施例中,上述的术语都是指相同类型的设备之间建立的链路,其含义相同。所谓相同类型的设备,可以是终端设备到终端设备之间的链路,也可以是基站到基站之间的链路,还可以是中继节点到中继节点之间的链路等,本申请实施例对此不做限定。对于终端设备和终端设备之间的链路,有3GPP的版本(Rel)-12/13定义的D2D链路,也有3GPP为车联网定义的车到车、车到手机、或车到任何实体的V2X链路,包括Rel-14/15。还包括目前3GPP正在研究的Rel-16及后续版本的基于新空口(New Radio,NR)系统的V2X链路等。
下面介绍本申请实施例所应用的网络架构。请参考图4,为本申请实施例所应用的一种网络架构示意图,包括两个终端设备,分别为终端设备1(下文称第一终端)和终端设备2(下文称第二终端)。
这两个终端设备之间通过直连通道(sidelink)进行通信。当然图1中的终端设备的数量只是举例。并且,图1中的终端设备是以车载终端设备或车为例,但本申请实施例中的终端设备不限于此。
应理解,图4仅为便于理解而示例的简化示意图,该通信系统中还可以包括其他网络设备或者还可以包括其他终端设备,比如:网络侧设备,图4中均未予以画出。
在介绍本申请的技术方案前,首先对本申请实施例中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
(1)终端设备可以是能够接收网络设备调度和指示信息的无线终端设备,无线终端设备可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,或具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备。例如,5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)网络中的终端设备,NR通信系统中的终端设备等。
而如上介绍的各种终端设备,如果位于车辆上(例如放置在车辆内或安装在车辆内),都可以认为是车载终端设备,车载终端设备例如也称为OBU。
(2)网络设备,例如包括接入网(access network,AN)设备,例如基站(例如,接入点),可以是指接入网中在空口通过一个或多个小区与无线终端设备通信的设备,或者例如,一种V2X技术中的网络设备为RSU。基站可用于将收到的空中帧与网际协议(Internet Protocol,IP)分组进行相互转换,作为终端设备与接入网的其余部分之间的路由器,其中接入网的其余部分可包括IP网络。RSU可以是支持V2X应用的固定基础设施实体,可以与支持V2X应用的其他实体交换消息。网络设备还可协调对空口的属性管理。例如,网络设备可以包括长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统或演进的LTE系统(LTE-Advanced,LTE-A)中的演进型基站(NodeB或eNB或e-NodeB,evolutional Node B),或者也可以包括5G NR系统中的下一代节点B(next generation node B,gNB)或者也可以包括云接入网(cloud radio access network,CloudRAN)系统中的集中式单元(centralized unit,CU)和分布式单元 (distributed unit,DU),本申请实施例并不限定。
3)本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”可被互换使用。“多个”是指两个或两个以上,鉴于此,本申请实施例中也可以将“多个”理解为“至少两个”。“至少一个”,可理解为一个或多个,例如理解为一个、两个或更多个。例如,包括至少一个,是指包括一个、两个或更多个,而且不限制包括的是哪几个。例如,包括A、B和C中的至少一个,那么包括的可以是A、B、C,A和B,A和C,B和C,或A和B和C。同理,对于“至少一种”等描述的理解,也是类似的。
4)本申请实施例中的术语“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这三种情况。另外,字符“/”,如无特殊说明,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
除非有相反的说明,本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词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。例如第一时域资源和第二时域资源,只是为了区分不同的时域资源,并不是限制这两个时域资源的优先级或重要程度等。
接下来结合附图介绍本申请实施例提供的技术方案。以下,不失一般性,以两个终端设备之间的交互过程为例进行详细说明本申请实施例。
如图5所示,本发明实施例提供的是一种进行定位的系统,该系统包括:第一终端10和对端设备20。
第一终端10,用于接收定位辅助信息,根据接收到的所述定位辅助信息确定所述第二终端相对于第一终端的位置信息。
对端设备20,用于向第一终端10发送定位辅助信息。
在一些具体的实施例中,上述对端设备20可以为第二终端。
通过上述方法,第一终端根据接收到的定位辅助信息确定第二终端相对于第一终端的位置信息,提供了一种在V2X场景下第一终端对第二终端进行定位的方式,避免通过依赖多个基站来测量第二终端的位置,进一步简化了 在V2X场景下第一终端对第二终端进行定位的流程,应用性强。
本申请提供的进行定位的系统中,对端设备可以是直接与第一终端具有直连通道的终端设备,也可以是网络侧设备,由网络侧设备确定第一终端和第二终端的位置信息,并将用于指示第一终端和第二终端之间的相对位置信息的定位辅助信息分别通知给第一终端和第二终端,由此实现在V2X场景下,第一终端对第二终端进行定位,以获取第二终端与第一终端之间的相对位置信息。
其中,本申请实施例中的相对位置信息包括两者之间的相对距离和/或两者之间的相对方向角度。
本申请实施例确定两者之间的相对距离的方式有多种,包括但不限于下列方式:
1)根据定位信号的传输时长确定;
2)根据信号的传输损耗与传输距离的关系确定。
本申请实施例确定两者之间的相对方向角度的方式也有多种,比如,根据定位信号的来波方向等。因此,本申请实施例中的定位信号为终端与终端之间或终端与网络侧设备之间能够传输的信号,比如:包括但不限于下列中的一项或多项:
PRS、信道状态信息测量参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)、解调参考符号(Demodulation Reference Symbol,DMRS)、同步信号块(synchronization signal block,SSB)或数据信号,其中数据信号为通过信道传输的用户数据,比如上行物理共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)信号,下行物理共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)信号等。
优选的,下面以PRS作为定位信号为例,对第一终端确定第二终端相对于第一终端自身的相对位置信息的方式进行介绍。
需说明的是,图5所示的定位系统仅为示意,该定位系统中还可以包括其他设备,该设备可以为网络设备或者还可以包括其他终端设备,在可选的 场景中,第一终端还可以同时作为其他设备的对端设备,图5中均未示出。
应理解,与第一终端交互的对端设备不同,则组成的定位系统便不同,进行定位的方式以及流程也不同。下面结合具体的实施例,对上述图5所示的定位系统进行具体说明。
下述实施例可以应用于图4所示的网络架构中。为了简化区分,下文中以UE1表示第一终端,UE2表示第二终端。
实施例1:基于sidelink连接的UE1和UE2组成的定位系统。
实施例1为基于往返时延(Round-Trip Time,RTT)的终端到终端的相对位置测量。比如:在V2X场景下,为车与车之间的相对位置测量。
如图6所示,为本申请提供的实施例1的交互流程示意图,包括以下步骤:
步骤600:各终端通过各自的服务基站获取自身在sidelink链路的PRS的资源配置信息。
UE1通过eNB1获取UE1在sidelink链路的定位参考信号PRS1的资源配置信息。UE2通过eNB2获取UE2在sidelink链路的定位参考信号PRS2的资源配置信息。
其中,各终端通过Uu口与基站进行数据传输。eNB1为UE1的服务基站,eNB2为UE2的服务基站,eNB1与eNB2也可以为同一基站。
需要说明的是,步骤600中,基站确定终端在sidelink链路的PRS的资源配置信息的方式以及UE根据该PRS资源配置信息配置PRS的方式为根据现有机制的技术实现,这里不再详述。
应理解,上述仅为举例,若进行定位的定位信号不同,则步骤600也有所不同。比如UE1和UE2基于数据信号来获取定位辅助信息时,步骤600不是必须执行步骤,或步骤600为具体执行配置相应定位信号的步骤。
步骤601:UE1在第一时间向UE2发送PRS1。
UE1向UE2发送PRS1,相应的,UE2接收UE1发送的PRS1。其中,UE1发送PRS1的发送时刻的时间戳记为第一时间(下文称T1),UE2接收 PRS1的接收时刻的时间戳记为第二时间(下文称T2)。所述时间戳信息可以是绝对时间,也可以是时域资源的编号。具体的,例如,时域资源的编号可以包括但不限于下列中的一项或多项:无线帧编号子帧编号,符号(symbol)编号,时隙(slot)编号,微小时隙(mini-slot)编号等。
步骤602:UE2在第三时间向UE1发送PRS2。
UE2向UE1发送PRS2,对应的,UE1接收UE2发送的PRS2。其中,UE2发送PRS2的发送时刻的时间戳记为第三时间(下文称T3),UE1接收PRS2的接收时刻的时间戳记为第四时间(下文称T4)。
步骤603:UE2向UE1发送用于指示T3与T2之间的间隔时长的时间差值信息;
在该步骤中,UE2向UE1发送的时间差值信息,可以是T3与T2之间的间隔时长(即T3与T2之间的时间差值)或者是T2和T3。
例如,UE2接收PRS1的时间为12:59:30(T2),UE2发送PRS2的时间为13:05:30(T3),则UE2可以将T2和T3的间隔时长,即12:59:30与13:05:30之间的时间差值6min发送给UE1;另一种示例,UE2可以将12:59:30(T2)和13:05:30(T3)通知给UE1,由UE1确定T2和T3之间的间隔时长。
步骤604:UE2向UE1上报自身的速度信息和速度方向信息;
可选的,UE2还可以向UE1上报自身的速度信息和速度方向信息,其中,UE2的速度方向为UE2根据自身的移动速度与预设的基准方向之间的夹角确定的。该夹角的范围为0~360°。
步骤605:UE1确定UE2与自身之间的相对距离。
UE1通过上述方式获取定位辅助信息,该定位辅助信息包括UE1发送PRS1的发送时刻的时间戳信息(T1)、UE1接收UE2发送的PRS2的接收时刻的时间戳信息(T4)、UE2发送的时间差值信息,UE1根据上述定位辅助信息确定UE2相对于UE1自身的位置信息,其中,确定的位置信息包括相对距离和/或相对方向角度,下面首先对确定相对距离的方式进行说明。
本申请实施例确定UE1与UE2之间的相对距离的方式有多种,下面列举 两种:
确定方式一:根据PRS2预估UE1与UE2之间的相对距离。
UE1根据PRS2的接收功率RSRP确定UE1与UE2之间的相对距离。
根据信号的传输损耗与传输距离的关系,UE1根据接收PRS2时的接收功率RSRP和PRS2的发送功率确定信号的传输损耗,以此预估UE1与UE2之间的相对距离。
确定方式二:根据时间信息确定UE1与UE2之间的相对距离。
示例性的,如图7所示,为UE1与UE2为相对静止状态时的PRS1和PRS2的定位信号传输的应用场景示意图。
在如图7所示的应用场景中,UE1与UE2之间的相对距离满足:
d 1=Δt/2×C   公式1
Δt=|T1-T4|-|T2-T3|  公式2
其中,| |表示取绝对值,d 1表示UE1与UE2之间的相对距离;C 表示空口传输速率,即光速;Δt表示PRS1和PRS2的传输总时长。
实际上UE1与UE2之间的相对距离为L,应理解,由于车运行的速度远小于光速,且T2与T1的间隔时长较小,同样的,T4与T3的间隔时长较小,因此可以认为d 1是无限趋近于L的,因此,此处L≈d 1
上述计算方式,可以应用于UE1与UE2为相对静止状态或UE1的速度与UE2的速度均为超过预设速度的情况下。
作为另一种示例,一种可选的场景中,UE2向UE1上报自身的速度信息和速度方向信息,如步骤604。UE1在确定与UE2的相对距离时,结合UE2和UE1自身的速度确定与UE2的相对距离。
UE1确定在进行定位的过程中UE2的位移、UE1自身在该过程中的位移以及UE1与UE2的初始距离确定UE1与UE2之间的相对距离。即,UE1根据UE1自身的速度信息、UE1的速度方向信息、UE2的速度信息、UE2的速度方向信息、PRS1的发送时刻的时间戳信息(T1)、PRS2的接收时刻的时间戳信息(T4)以及时间差值信息确定所述第二终端与所述第一终端之间的实 际距离,该实际距离包括UE1与UE2之间的起始距离,以及从第一终端发送PRS1开始至第一终端接收PRS2为止,这一段时间内UE1和UE2的总的位移,包括水平方向的位移和垂直方向的位移。
其中,速度方向信息为该终端的速度与预设的基准方向之间的夹角。如图7中,假设基准方向为地图坐标系中的水平方向。应理解,UE1确定自身的速度方向与UE2确定自身的速度方向时,是基于相同的预设的基准方向。
下面举一个简单的例子进行说明,如图8所示,为本申请提供的另一种PRS1和PRS2的信号传输应用场景示意图,该应用场景下,假设基准方向为地图坐标系下的水平方向,UE1与UE2在竖直方向(垂直于水平方向)上具有相对运动趋势,在水平方向上为相对静止状态,UE1与UE2的初始距离为竖直方向的距离d 1,参见图8可知,UE1的速度方向为与水平线夹角为θ 1的方向,UE2的速度方向为与水平线夹角为θ 2的方向(假设θ 1的值为正数,则θ 2的值为负)。
在图8所示的应用场景中,UE1通过下列方式确定与UE2之间的相对距离,其中V 1是指UE1的移动方向,V 2是指UE2的移动方向:
2d 1+(V 1×sinθ 1+V 2×sinθ 2)×(T4-T1)=Δt×C   公式3
Δt=(T1-T4)-(T2-T3)  公式4
通过公式3和公式4可得,UE1与UE2之间的相对距离d 2满足:
d 2=d 1+[(V 1×sinθ 1+V 2×sinθ 2)×(T4-T1)]/2  公式5
作为又一示例,由于T2与T1的间隔时长较小,因此可以认为UE1与UE1的位置不变。同样的,T4与T3的间隔时长较小,也可假设在该时间段内UE1与UE1的位置不变。因此,在一种可选的场景中,UE1与UE2之间的相对距离d 3满足:
d 3=d 1+[(V 1×sinθ 1+V 2×sinθ 2)×(T3-T2)]/2   公式6
上述计算方式,可以应用于UE1与UE2具有相对运动趋势时,或者UE1的速度和/或UE2的速度超过预设速度的情况下。
需要说明的是,步骤603和步骤604之间没有时间顺序,对于步骤603 和步骤604中UE2向UE1发送的信息,可以在步骤602实现,即时间差值信息、UE2的速度信息或速度方向信息中的一项或多项可以与PRS2一起发送,也可以在PRS2之后发送。也就是,UE2可以一次传输步骤602~步骤604涉及的部分或全部信息。比如,UE2将PRS2、时间差值信息和自身的速度信息以及速度方向信息同时发送给UE1,或如图6所示将各信息单独发送,或者将步骤602~步骤604发送的信息进行两两组合后发送。
优选的,UE2上报的速度信息和速度方向信息为UE2在发送PRS2的时刻对应的速度和速度方向。
步骤606:UE1根据PRS2预估UE2相对于自身的方向角度。
UE1根据PRS2的到达角度确定UE2相对于UE1的方向角度。具体的,UE1确定PRS2的到达角度的过程为:UE1接收UE2发送的PRS2,UE1通过天线阵列接收获得多路信号,并通过本地角度加权向量进行匹配寻找一个最大值,该最大值对应的角度即为来波方向角,或者使用MUSIC算法估计接收信号中的最大角度分量,从而获得到达角度方向(Angle of Arrival,AOA)。
其中UE2相对于UE1自身的方向角度为两车之间的相对方向角度,比如,UE1确定PRS2的到达角度为UE1正前方,则UE1在确定UE2与自身之间的相对距离之后,可以确定UE2位于,以UE1为圆心,以确定的相对距离为半径形成的圆上。当确定了UE2相对于UE1的方向角度后,可以根据确定的相对于UE1自身的方向角度唯一确定一个位置,该位置即为UE2相对于UE1的位置。
需要说明的是,上述根据PRS预估距离和方向角度为基于现有技术的实现,这里不再详述。
相应的,UE2也可以基于上述方式结合自身接收到的PRS1预估与UE1之间的相对距离和相对方向角度,从而确定UE1的相对位置。
一种可能的场景中,在与UE2的交互过程中,UE1为首先发起定位的一方,实际上,UE1即可以向UE2发送PRS1,也可以在接收到其他终端发送的定位参考信号后,执行UE2的流程,向对端反馈UE1自身的定位参考信息。
需要说明的是,步骤604和步骤605并没有时间顺序,UE1可以同时执行步骤601和步骤605,或先执行步骤605,再执行步骤604,即UE1还可以先确定相对方向角度再确定相对距离,或同时确定相对距离和相对方向角度。进一步,上述UE1通过PRS2的来波方向确定UE2与UE1之间的相对方向角度仅为举例,UE1也可以通过UE2发送的其他信息,比如时间差值信息、速度信息或速度方向信息的来波方向确定UE2与UE1之间的相对方向角度。
基于上述方法,UE1确定UE2相对于自身的位置信息时,不需要通过多个基站进行交互,简化了进行定位的流程。
实施例2:基于sidelink连接的UE1和UE2组成的定位系统。
实施例2为基于时间同步的终端与终端的相对位置测量。该实施例中,UE1与UE2的时间同步,比如,UE1与UE2都与全球导航卫星系统(Global Navigation Satellite System,GNSS)信号同步,以实现UE1与UE2的时间同步,应理解,时间同步的精度越高则定位精度越高,比如,时间同步的精度为毫秒或微妙等。
如图9所示,为本申请提供的实施例2的交互流程示意图,该实施例2可应用于图4所示的应用场景中,具体包括以下步骤:
步骤900:各终端通过基站获取自身在sidelink链路的定位参考信号PRS的资源配置信息。
对于步骤900的执行流程可以参见步骤600的具体操作步骤,此处不再赘述。
步骤901:UE1接收UE2发送的PRS2和发送时间信息。
该实施例中的PRS2与实施例1中的PRS2并非指同一流程中的同一信号,而是指UE2对应的基于sidelink的PRS。针对不同实施例中的PRS2都可以理解为以上陈述,同样的,各实施例中的PRS1可以参照对PRS2的阐述,这里不再赘述。
UE2向UE1发送PRS2,发送PRS2的时刻的时间戳记为T3。对应的,UE1接收该PRS2,接收PRS的时刻的时间戳记为T4。
UE2向UE1发送T3对应的发送时间的时间戳信息,该时间戳信息可以与PRS2一起发送,或在发送PRS2之后发送。若与PRS2一起发送时,该时间戳信息和PRS2可以为两个独立的数据单元,也可以置于该PRS2的数据单元中,比如,在承载PRS2的数据单元中添加PRS2的发送时刻的时间戳信息。
步骤902:UE1确定UE2与自身之间的相对距离。
示例性的,UE1可以执行上述步骤605中确定方式一来确定UE2与自身之间的相对距离。
作为另一种示例,UE1还可以根据传输PRS2的时长确定UE2与自身之间的相对距离。UE1与UE2之间的相对距离D满足:
D=|T4-T3|×C   公式7
步骤903:UE1根据PRS2预估UE2相对于自身的方向角度。
对于步骤903的执行流程可以参见步骤606的具体操作步骤,此处不再赘述。
可选的,如步骤904所示,UE1还可以向UE2发送PRS1以及发送PRS1的发送时刻的时间戳信息,UE2根据UE1发送PRS1的时刻的时间戳信息和接收PRS1的时刻的时间戳信息确定与UE1之间的距离,并根据UE1发送的PRS1预估UE1相对于UE2的方位角度,参见步骤905。对于步骤905,UE2实现的流程可以参见UE1侧的步骤902和步骤903的具体执行步骤,此处不再赘述。
一种可选的实现方式,对于实施例1中步骤601和步骤602中介绍的第一时间和第三时间,可以为预设的时间,即UE1与UE2都预先已知的时间。
比如,UE1在发送PRS1之前,通知UE2,UE1向UE2发送PRS1的时间(第一时间)。当第一时间到达时,UE1向UE2发送该PRS1;UE2在发送PRS2之前,通知UE1,发送PRS2的时间(第三时间)。当第三时间到达时,UE2向UE1发送该PRS2。作为另一种示例性,假设第一时间为各无线帧的slot m,第三时间为各无线帧的slot n(slot n位于slot m之后),则UE1在当前无线帧的slot m向UE2发送PRS1,UE2在接收到PRS1之后,在slot n向 UE1发送PRS2。
若在实施例1应用上述方式,UE2在接收到UE1发送的PRS1后,由于UE2已知UE1发送PRS1的时间为预设的第一时间(T1),因此UE2可以根据UE2实际接收PRS1的时间(T2)和预设的第一时间直接确定UE1相对于自身的相对位置信息,参见上述公式7;同样的,UE1在接收到UE2发送的PRS2后,也可以根据预设的第三时间和UE1实际接收到PRS2的时间直接确定UE1相对于自身的相对位置信息。
若在实施例2应用上述方式,UE2在预设的发送时刻向UE1发送PRS2,因此UE2不需要向UE1上报发送PRS2的发送时刻的时间戳信息,UE1根据预设的发送时刻和接收该PRS2的时刻确定UE2相对于UE1自身的相对位置信息。
上述两个实施例为终端基于sidelink定位参考信号进行定位的方式,在上述方式中,终端还可以将网络辅助进行定位的方式与上述两种方式进行结合,以提高定位精度,下面通过实施例3进行详细介绍。
实施例3:UE1、UE2和网络侧设备(比如基站)组成的定位系统。
实施例3为基于网络辅助的车到车的相对位置测量。如图10所示,为本申请提供的实施例3可能适用的场景,其中,UE1与UE2之间具有sidelink连接,UE1和网络侧设备之间通过空口连接,UE2和网络侧设备之间也具有通过空口连接,UE1和UE2一方面可以通过上述实施例1和/或实施例2的方式进行定位,另一方面还可以结合网络侧设备辅助进行定位。
如图11所示,为本申请提供的实施例3的交互流程示意图,该实施例2可应用于图10所示的应用场景中,具体包括以下步骤:
步骤1100:各终端通过基站获取自身在sidelink的定位参考信号PRS的资源配置信息,以及通过基站获取自身在Uu口的定位参考信号PRS的资源配置信息。
步骤1101:UE1向eNB1发送Uu口的定位参考信号PRS3,UE2向eNB1发送Uu口的定位参考信号PRS4。
UE1通过eNB1获取自身在Uu口的定位参考信号PRS3的资源配置信息,并根据PRS3的资源配置信息配置PRS3信号。UE2通过eNB1获取自身在Uu口的定位参考信号PRS4的资源配置信息,并根据PRS4的资源配置信息配置PRS4信号。
其中,UE1向eNB1发送PRS1的时间和UE2向eNB1发送PRS2的时间可以同时,两者的时间差值也可以处于一定阈值范围内。若是同时发送,则可以通过预设发送时间来发送,比如,eNB1通知UE1和UE2在相同的时隙发送定位参考信号,或UE1和UE2交互时间信息来确定发送定位参考信号的时间。
在该步骤1101执行的同时,UE1和UE2可以执行上述实施例1中步骤或上述实施例2的步骤,以获取基于sidelink的定位结果。
步骤1102:eNB1确定UE1与自身的相对位置,以及UE2与自身的相对位置。
eNB1根据PRS1确定UE1与自身的相对距离和方向角度。同样的,eNB2根据PRS2确定UE2与自身的相对距离和方向角度。其确定方式可以参见上述实施例1或实施例2中的相关执行步骤,此处不再赘述。
步骤1103:eNB1将定位辅助信息分别通知给UE1和UE2。
该实施例中,定位辅助信息包括UE2与eNB1自身的相对距离和相对方向角度、UE1与eNB1自身的相对距离和相对方向角度以及eNB1自身的位置信息。
UE1根据eNB1通知的定位辅助信息推算出UE2与自身的相对位置,同样的,UE2根据eNB1通知的定位辅助信息推算出UE1与自身的相对位置。
举例来说:假设eNB1发送的定位辅助信息包括,eNB1自身的位置信息,比如:eNB1位于地图坐标系下的(0,0)坐标,UE1相对于eNB1的相对位置为(0,10)坐标,UE2相对于eNB1的相对位置为(0,20)坐标,则UE1能够根据上述信息推断出UE2相对于UE1自身的相对位置。
可选的,eNB1也可以直接确定两个终端的绝对位置,并将两个终端的绝 对位置信息发给UE1和UE2,UE1和UE2根据获取的绝对位置信息进行相对距离和相对方向角度的判断,推导出相对位置信息。具体的如,UE1根据自身的绝对位置和UE2的绝对位置,确定UE2与UE1自身之间的相对距离和相对方向角度,并根据确定的相对距离和相对方向角度确定UE2相对于UE1的位置信息。
可选的,eNB1也可以直接将两终端之间的相对位置信息通知给UE1和UE2,也就是,eNB1确定出UE1与UE2之间的相对距离和方向角度,将确定出的UE2相对于UE1的相对距离和方向角度等信息发送给UE1。同样的,eNB1也可以将确定出的UE1相对于UE2的距离和方向角度等信息发送给UE2。
在一种可能的场景中,UE1和UE2可能不连接在同一个服务基站,比如,UE1连接的基站为eNB1,UE2连接的基站为eNB2,如图12所示,则在步骤1100和步骤1101中,UE1和UE2分别向各自的服务器交互信息,比如,在步骤1101中,UE1将PRS3信号发送eNB1,UE2将PRS4信号发送eNB2。eNB1根据PRS3确定出UE1相对于eNB1的相对位置。eNB2根据PRS4确定出UE2相对于Enb2的相对位置。eNB1与eNB2进行互相定位,eNB1与eNB2交互对终端的定位结果,以获取对方接入终端的定位信息和两基站之间的相对位置信息,比如,eNB1向eNB2发送eNB1的接入终端与自身的相对位置以及eNB1相对于eNB2的位置信息,eNB2向eNB1发送eNB2的接入终端与自身的相对位置以及eNB2相对于eNB1的位置信息,以此,eNB1便可推算出eNB2下的接入终端相对于eNB1的相对位置,并将确定的各终端的相对位置信息和eNB1自身的位置信息通知为UE1。同样的eNB2也可以执行eNB1的方法流程通知UE2,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,上述仅是以两个终端与eNB1组成的通信系统为例,对实施例3的方式进行说明,实施时,eNB1可以将确定的所有终端的位置信息通知给任一终端,以使该终端能够确定自身与其他终端的相对位置。
步骤1104:UE1根据eNB1的定位结果和基于sidelink的定位结果确定 UE2的相对位置。
UE1根据eNB1的定位结果推算出UE2相对于UE1自身的位置,并基于自身通过实施例1或实施例2的方式确定的UE2相对于UE1自身的位置确定UE2的相对位置,以提高对UE2的定位精度。
其中,UE1根据网络侧设备的定位辅助信息确定的UE2与UE1自身的位置信息以及结合实施例1和/或实施例2的方式确定的UE2与UE1自身的位置信息来确定最终的UE2相对于UE1自身的位置信息的方式有多种,下面列举几种:
1)根据sidelink链路的信号强度和Uu口信号的信号强度确定最终的位置信息。
比较sidelink链路的信号和Uu口信号的信号强度来选择最终的定位结果,比如,sidelink链路的信号较强,则可理解为基于sidelink链路的信号进行定位的可靠度较高,则UE1可将基于sidelink链路的信号确定的UE2的相对位置作为最终UE2与UE1自身的相对位置,即UE1通过实施例1或实施例2的方式确定UE2相对于UE1的位置信息。若Uu口信号较强,则可理解为基于Uu口信号进行定位的可靠度较高,则UE1可将基于Uu口信号确定的UE2的相对位置作为UE2与UE1自身的相对位置,即UE1以网络侧设备通知的定位辅助信息为准,来确定UE2相对于UE1的位置信息。
2)根据基于sidelink链路的定位结果和基于基站的定位结果确定。
比如,UE1基于sidelink链路确定的UE2相对于UE1自身的距离为10m,方位角度为60,UE1根据eNB1获取的UE2相对于UE1自身的距离为11m,方位角度为61。则UE1可以基于两结果进行加权计算,来确定UE2最终相对于UE1的相对位置,比如,UE1确定UE2最终相对于UE1的相对距离为10.5m,方位角度为60.5。
实施例4:UE1、UE2和网络侧设备(比如基站)组成的定位系统。
实施例4为完全基于网络设备进行定位的方式,在一种可能的场景中,如图12所示,UE1与UE2没有直接通信链路时,UE1和UE2可以采用上述 实施例3中的通过eNB1进行定位的方式,比如包括以下步骤:
1、各终端通过自身的服务基站获取自身在Uu口的定位参考信号PRS的资源配置信息。
2、UE1向eNB1发送Uu口的定位参考信号PRS3,UE2向eNB1发送Uu口的定位参考信号PRS4。
3、eNB1确定UE1与自身的相对位置,以及UE2与自身的相对位置;
4、eNB1将定位结果和自身的位置信息通知给UE1和UE2。
5、UE1根据eNB1的定位结果确定UE2的相对位置(相对UE1)。
可选的,UE2也可以根据eNB1的定位结果确定UE1相对于UE2自身的相对位置。
其中,上述步骤的具体实施流程可以参见实施3中的相关执行步骤,此处不再赘述。
