Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及无线通信技术,特别涉及一种多基站协同传输系统中协同反馈集的选择方法及实现上述协同反馈集选择方法的基站。The present invention relates to wireless communication technology, in particular to a method for selecting a cooperative feedback set in a multi-base station cooperative transmission system and a base station for realizing the above method for selecting a cooperative feedback set.
背景技术Background technique
目前,多基站协同传输(CoMP)技术已经成为近期无线通信系统的研究热点之一,通过多个基站联合调度用户、发送信号,能够将传统小区间不可避免的干扰信号转化为有用的数据,从而进一步提高频谱利用率。At present, multi-base station coordinated transmission (CoMP) technology has become one of the research hotspots in wireless communication systems in the near future. Through multiple base stations jointly scheduling users and sending signals, the inevitable interference signals between traditional cells can be converted into useful data, thereby Further improve spectrum utilization.
在多基站协同传输系统中,基站eNodeB通常首先为UE配置无线资源管理(RRM)测量集(measurement set),其中,RRM测量集是由需要UE测量参考信号接收功率(RSRP)的小区构成的集合;然后,UE将根据预先设定的报告条件在RRM测量集内选择需要向eNodeB报告RSRP的小区,并向eNodeB报告这些小区的RSRP;eNodeB收到UE的报告后,根据UE反馈的每个小区的RSRP确定协同反馈集(CoMP feedback set)并将确定的协同反馈集配置给UE,上述协同反馈集是由需要UE向其服务小区反馈信道状态信息(CSI)的小区构成的集合;再然后,UE向eNodeB反馈协同反馈集所包含小区的CSI;最后,eNodeB根据UE反馈的CSI进行调度、预编码以及信令和数据传输。本领域的人员可以理解,协同反馈集的大小通常可以直接影响协同传输增益的大小,例如,协同反馈集越大(包含的小区越多)可以获得的协同传输增益就会越大;相反,协同反馈集越小(包含的小区越少)可以获得的协同传输增益就会越小。此外,协同反馈集的大小还会直接影响反馈开销的大小,例如,协同反馈集越大反馈开销就会越大;协同反馈集越小反馈开销就会越小。因此,如何确定协同反馈集以平衡反馈开销和协同传输增益是协同传输技术所要解决的关键问题之一。In a multi-base station coordinated transmission system, the base station eNodeB usually firstly configures a radio resource management (RRM) measurement set (measurement set) for the UE, wherein the RRM measurement set is a set composed of cells that need the UE to measure Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) ; Then, the UE will select the cells that need to report RSRP to the eNodeB in the RRM measurement set according to the preset reporting conditions, and report the RSRP of these cells to the eNodeB; after receiving the report from the UE, the eNodeB will RSRP determines a CoMP feedback set (CoMP feedback set) and configures the determined CoMP feedback set to the UE. The CoMP feedback set is a set composed of cells that require the UE to feed back channel state information (CSI) to its serving cell; and then, The UE feeds back the CSI of the cells included in the coordinated feedback set to the eNodeB; finally, the eNodeB performs scheduling, precoding, signaling and data transmission according to the CSI fed back by the UE. Those skilled in the art can understand that the size of the cooperative feedback set can usually directly affect the size of the cooperative transmission gain. For example, the larger the cooperative feedback set (the more cells it contains), the greater the cooperative transmission gain that can be obtained; The smaller the feedback set (the fewer cells it includes), the smaller the cooperative transmission gain that can be obtained. In addition, the size of the collaborative feedback set will directly affect the size of the feedback overhead. For example, the larger the collaborative feedback set, the greater the feedback overhead; the smaller the collaborative feedback set, the smaller the feedback overhead. Therefore, how to determine the cooperative feedback set to balance the feedback overhead and the cooperative transmission gain is one of the key problems to be solved by the cooperative transmission technology.

在本发明中,根据本发明的一个实施例,eNodeB可以根据自身的RSRP和/或自身业务量与各小区业务量的比值动态调节判决门限的大小,在eNodeB自身RSRP较大和/或自身的业务量与某一小区业务量的比值较大时选择较大的判决门限,使eNodeB周边的小区更容易与eNode进行协同传输,而在eNodeB自身RSRP较小和/或自身的业务量与各小区业务量的比值较小时选择较小的判决门限,使得eNodeB周边的小区更困难与eNode进行协同传输,从而可以实现反馈开销和协同传输增益之间的折衷,以较小的反馈开销下获得较大的协同传输增益。In the present invention, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the eNodeB can dynamically adjust the size of the decision threshold according to its own RSRP and/or the ratio of its own traffic to the traffic of each cell. When the ratio of traffic volume to a certain cell’s service volume is large, a larger decision threshold is selected to make it easier for the cells around the eNodeB to perform cooperative transmission with the eNode, while the eNodeB’s own RSRP is small and/or its own traffic volume is different from the business volume of each cell. When the ratio of the quantity is small, a smaller decision threshold is selected, making it more difficult for the cells around the eNodeB to perform cooperative transmission with the eNode, so that a trade-off between feedback overhead and cooperative transmission gain can be achieved, and a larger feedback overhead can be obtained with a smaller feedback overhead. Synergistic transfer gain.
根据本发明的另一个实施例,eNodeB通过某个非服务小区在参与协同传输时可以获得的容量增益的大小来确定是否将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,可以确保只有容量增益大于预先设置的容量增益门限的小区能够加入协同反馈集,因此,可以实现协同传输增益与反馈开销之间较好的折衷。并且,这种方法只需设置一固定的容量增益门限,且无需在不同网络场景下对该容量增益进行调整,因此,实现起来非常简单。According to another embodiment of the present invention, the eNodeB determines whether to add the non-serving cell to the cooperative feedback set according to the size of the capacity gain that a certain non-serving cell can obtain when participating in coordinated transmission, which can ensure that only the capacity gain greater than the preset Cells with a capacity gain threshold can join the cooperative feedback set, so a better trade-off between cooperative transmission gain and feedback overhead can be achieved. Moreover, this method only needs to set a fixed capacity gain threshold, and does not need to adjust the capacity gain in different network scenarios, so it is very simple to implement.
此外,根据本发明的又一个实施例,eNodeB通过设置两个固定的门限,一方面保证在服务小区与某个非服务小区的参考信号质量参数的差值较小的情况下将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,另一方面保证某个非服务小区自身的参考信号质量参数较大时也可以将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,从而可以有效的增加协同传输的增益,实现协同传输增益与反馈开销之间较好的折衷。In addition, according to yet another embodiment of the present invention, by setting two fixed thresholds, the eNodeB ensures that, on the one hand, when the difference between the reference signal quality parameters of a serving cell and a non-serving cell is small, the non-serving cell On the other hand, when the reference signal quality parameter of a non-serving cell is relatively large, the non-serving cell can also be added to the cooperative feedback set, so that the gain of cooperative transmission can be effectively increased, and the gain of cooperative transmission and Good tradeoff between feedback overhead.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
在现有的多基站协同传输系统中,当eNodeB接收到UE报告的所有小区的RSRP后,eNodeB首先分别计算服务小区的RSRP与UE报告的每个小区的RSRP的差值,并将计算得到的差值与预先设置的一个固定门限(例如,3dB)进行比较,如果计算得到的差值小于该固定门限,则将该差值对应的小区放入候选集合;最后,再从候选集合中依次选择前m个RSRP最大的小区作为协同反馈集中的小区,其中,m为协同反馈集所能包含小区的最大数目。In the existing multi-base station coordinated transmission system, when the eNodeB receives the RSRP of all the cells reported by the UE, the eNodeB first calculates the difference between the RSRP of the serving cell and the RSRP of each cell reported by the UE, and uses the calculated The difference is compared with a preset fixed threshold (for example, 3dB), and if the calculated difference is smaller than the fixed threshold, the cell corresponding to the difference is put into the candidate set; finally, select from the candidate set in turn The first m cells with the largest RSRP are used as cells in the coordination feedback set, where m is the maximum number of cells that can be included in the coordination feedback set.
通过研究可以发现,上述基于固定门限确定候选集合进而确定协同反馈集的方法仅适用于具有对称RSRP以及对称业务量的对称网络(例如,具有相同基站传输功率以及相同路径损耗因子的同构网络),但是,对于具有不对称RSRP的异构网络或具有不对称业务的同构或异构网络并不适合。例如,在如图1a所示的异构网络中,小区A为UE的服务小区,小区B为小区A覆盖范围内的微小区。UE测量得到的小区A和小区B的RSRP如图1b所示。在图1b中,横轴代表UE的位置,纵轴表示UE的接收功率。从图1a和图1b可以看出,当UE位于小区A和小区B之间时,小区A和小区B的RSRP的绝对值都相对较高,此时即使小区A的参考信号接收功率RSRPA与小区B的参考信号接收功率RSRPB的差值大于预先设置的固定门限(例如,3dB),此时将小区B加入协同反馈集仍可以获得较大的协同传输增益;而当UE位于远离小区A和小区B的位置时(图1a中的右侧),小区A和小区B的RSRP的绝对值都相对较低,此时即使小区A的参考信号接收功率RSRPA与小区B的参考信号接收功率RSRPB的差值小于预先设置的固定门限(例如,3dB),将小区B加入协同反馈集可以获得的协同传输增益也很小。又例如,在图2a所示的同构网络中,小区A的业务量比较高,而小区B的业务量比较低,此时,小区A很难有空闲资源与小区B协同为小区B内的UE传输数据,而小区B将有很多空闲资源与小区A协同为小区A内的UE传输数据。因此,此时若仍采用固定门限(例如,3dB)的方式确定候选集也不是非常合适。Through research, it can be found that the above-mentioned method of determining candidate sets based on fixed thresholds and then determining cooperative feedback sets is only applicable to symmetric networks with symmetric RSRP and symmetric traffic (for example, homogeneous networks with the same base station transmission power and the same path loss factor) , however, it is not suitable for heterogeneous networks with asymmetric RSRP or homogeneous or heterogeneous networks with asymmetric services. For example, in a heterogeneous network as shown in FIG. 1a , cell A is a serving cell of a UE, and cell B is a micro cell within the coverage of cell A. The RSRPs of cell A and cell B measured by the UE are shown in Figure 1b. In FIG. 1b, the horizontal axis represents the position of the UE, and the vertical axis represents the received power of the UE. It can be seen from Figure 1a and Figure 1b that when the UE is located between cell A and cell B, the absolute values of the RSRPs of cell A and cell B are relatively high . The difference between the reference signal received power RSRP B of cell B is greater than a preset fixed threshold (for example, 3dB), at this time, adding cell B to the cooperative feedback set can still obtain a large cooperative transmission gain; and when the UE is located far away from cell A and the location of cell B (the right side in Figure 1a), the absolute values of the RSRPs of cell A and cell B are relatively low. At this time, even if the RSRP of cell A and the RSRP The difference of RSRP B is less than a preset fixed threshold (for example, 3dB), and the cooperative transmission gain that can be obtained by adding cell B to the cooperative feedback set is also very small. For another example, in the homogeneous network shown in Figure 2a, the traffic volume of cell A is relatively high, while the traffic volume of cell B is relatively low. The UE transmits data, and cell B will have a lot of idle resources to cooperate with cell A to transmit data for the UE in cell A. Therefore, at this time, it is not very appropriate to still use a fixed threshold (for example, 3dB) to determine the candidate set.
为了解决上述问题,本发明提供了多种协同反馈集的选择方法及实现该协同传输方法的基站,可以实现反馈开销和协同传输增益之间的较好折衷,即以较小的反馈开销下获得较大的协同传输增益。In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a selection method of multiple cooperative feedback sets and a base station implementing the cooperative transmission method, which can achieve a better compromise between feedback overhead and cooperative transmission gain, that is, obtain Larger cooperative transmission gain.

下面在详细说明上述步骤3023所述的eNodeB根据服务小区的RSRP以及业务量比值确定各非服务小区对应的判决门限的方法,该方法主要包括:The method for eNodeB determining the corresponding decision threshold of each non-serving cell according to the RSRP of the serving cell and the traffic volume ratio described in the above step 3023 will be described in detail below. The method mainly includes:
首先,建立RSRP、业务量比值与判决门限之间对应关系;First, establish the corresponding relationship between RSRP, traffic ratio and decision threshold;
然后,eNodeB根据服务小区或非服务小区的RSRP和服务小区业务量与各非服务小区的业务量的比值以及上述对应关系确定上述判决门限。Then, the eNodeB determines the above decision threshold according to the RSRP of the serving cell or the non-serving cell, the ratio of the traffic volume of the serving cell to the traffic volume of each non-serving cell, and the above correspondence.
其中,上述对应关系可以是一种函数关系,例如y=f(xa,xb),其中,xa代表服务小区或某个非服务小区的RSRP;xb代表服务小区与某个非服务小区业务量的比值;y代表该非服务小区对应的判决门限,并且在xa1≥xa2及xb1≥xb2时,保证y1-y2=f(xa1,xb1)-f(xa2,xb2)≥0。又或者,上述对应关系可以是如下表3所示的表格。Wherein, the above corresponding relationship may be a functional relationship, such as y=f(xa, xb), wherein, xa represents the RSRP of the serving cell or a certain non-serving cell; xb represents the traffic ratio between the serving cell and a certain non-serving cell Ratio; y represents the decision threshold corresponding to the non-serving cell, and when xa1≥xa2 and xb1≥xb2, it is guaranteed that y1-y2=f(xa1, xb1)-f(xa2, xb2)≥0. Alternatively, the above corresponding relationship may be a table as shown in Table 3 below.
表3table 3
本领域的技术人员可以理解,如果选择上述表格方式在实现上将更为简单。Those skilled in the art can understand that if the above table manner is selected, the implementation will be simpler.
对应上述方法,本发明还提供了实现上述方法的eNodeB,如图10所示,该基站的内部主要包括:参考信号质量参数接收单元401、判决门限确定单元402、以及协同反馈集确定单元403。其中,判决门限确定单元402包括:业务量比值计算模块4022,用于分别计算服务小区业务量与各非服务小区的业务量的比值;第三模块4024,用于根据UE报告的服务小区或各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数以及所述业务量比值分别确定所述各非服务小区对应的判决门限,其中,所述判决门限随着UE报告的服务小区或各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数以及业务量比值的增长而增长。其他单元,例如参考信号质量参数接收单元401以及协同反馈集确定单元403与图4中具有相同标号的单元具有相同的功能,在此不在赘述了。Corresponding to the above method, the present invention also provides an eNodeB that implements the above method. As shown in FIG. 10 , the base station mainly includes: a reference signal quality parameter receiving unit 401, a decision threshold determining unit 402, and a cooperative feedback set determining unit 403. Wherein, the decision threshold determination unit 402 includes: a traffic volume ratio calculation module 4022, which is used to calculate the ratio of the traffic volume of the serving cell to the traffic volume of each non-serving cell; The reference signal quality parameters of the non-serving cells and the traffic ratios respectively determine the decision thresholds corresponding to the non-serving cells, wherein the decision thresholds follow the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell or each non-serving cell reported by the UE As well as the growth of business volume ratio. Other units, such as the reference signal quality parameter receiving unit 401 and the cooperative feedback set determining unit 403 have the same functions as the units with the same numbers in FIG. 4 , and will not be repeated here.
从上述协同反馈集的选择方法以及eNodeB的内部结构可以看出,eNodeB根据服务小区或各非服务小区RSRP以及服务小区业务量与各非服务小区业务量的比值动态调节判决门限的大小,具体的是,在服务小区或某个非服务小区的RSRP较大且服务小区的业务量与某个非服务小区业务量的比值较大时选择较大的判决门限,使得非服务小区更容易与eNode进行协同传输,从而获得较高协同传输的增益,而在服务小区或某个非服务小区RSRP较小且服务小区的业务量与某个非服务小区业务量的比值较小时选择较小的判决门限,使得非服务小区更困难与eNode进行协同传输,从而降低反馈开销。It can be seen from the selection method of the collaborative feedback set and the internal structure of the eNodeB that the eNodeB dynamically adjusts the judgment threshold according to the RSRP of the serving cell or each non-serving cell and the ratio of the traffic volume of the serving cell to the traffic volume of each non-serving cell. Yes, when the RSRP of the serving cell or a non-serving cell is large and the ratio of the traffic volume of the serving cell to the traffic volume of a non-serving cell is large, a larger decision threshold is selected to make it easier for the non-serving cell to communicate with the eNode. Coordinated transmission, so as to obtain a higher gain of coordinated transmission, and select a smaller decision threshold when the RSRP of the serving cell or a non-serving cell is small and the ratio of the traffic volume of the serving cell to the traffic volume of a non-serving cell is small, It makes it more difficult for the non-serving cell to perform cooperative transmission with the eNode, thereby reducing the feedback overhead.
除上述方案之外,本发明还提供了另一种协同反馈集选择方法,其流程如图11所示,主要包括:In addition to the above solution, the present invention also provides another collaborative feedback set selection method, the flow of which is shown in Figure 11, mainly including:
步骤301:eNodeB接收UE报告的服务小区的参考信号质量参数和非服务小区的参考信号质量参数;Step 301: The eNodeB receives the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell and the reference signal quality parameters of the non-serving cell reported by the UE;
步骤1101:eNodeB根据UE报告的每个小区的参考信号质量参数分别计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时可以获得的容量增益;Step 1101: The eNodeB separately calculates the capacity gain that each non-serving cell can obtain when participating in coordinated transmission according to the reference signal quality parameter of each cell reported by the UE;
本步骤可以具体包括:This step may specifically include:
首先,eNodeB根据UE报告的每个小区的参考信号质量参数(例如,RSRP或RSRQ)分别计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时的用户容量和在不参与协同传输时的用户容量;First, the eNodeB separately calculates the user capacity of each non-serving cell when it participates in coordinated transmission and the user capacity when it does not participate in coordinated transmission according to the reference signal quality parameter (for example, RSRP or RSRQ) of each cell reported by the UE;
然后,eNodeB分别计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时的用户容量与在不参与协同传输时的用户容量的差值,将所述用户容量的差值与该非服务小区不参与协同传输时的用户容量的比值分别作为该非服务小区对应的容量增益。Then, the eNodeB separately calculates the difference between the user capacity of each non-serving cell when it participates in coordinated transmission and the user capacity when it does not participate in coordinated transmission, and compares the difference between the user capacity and the user capacity when the non-serving cell does not participate in coordinated transmission The ratios of user capacities are respectively used as capacity gains corresponding to the non-serving cells.
具体而言,某个非服务小区在参与协同传输时的用户容量可以通过如下的公式(1)计算:Specifically, the user capacity of a certain non-serving cell when participating in coordinated transmission can be calculated by the following formula (1):
其中,RSRPS是服务小区的RSRP;RSRPC是某个非服务小区的RSRP;ICI是服务小区和该非服务小区之外的小区间干扰;N为噪声。Among them, RSRP S is the RSRP of the serving cell; RSRP C is the RSRP of a non-serving cell; ICI is the inter-cell interference between the serving cell and the non-serving cell; N is noise.
更进一步,若假设采用多点联合处理(JP)的协同传输技术,则可以通过如下公式(2)计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时的用户容量:Furthermore, if it is assumed that the joint multi-point processing (JP) cooperative transmission technology is adopted, the user capacity of each non-serving cell when participating in cooperative transmission can be calculated by the following formula (2):
其中,RSRPS是服务小区的RSRP;RSRPC是某个非服务小区的RSRP;ICI是服务小区和该非服务小区之外的小区间干扰;N为噪声。Among them, RSRP S is the RSRP of the serving cell; RSRP C is the RSRP of a non-serving cell; ICI is the inter-cell interference between the serving cell and the non-serving cell; N is noise.
若假设采用协同调度/协同波束赋形(CS/CB)的协同传输技术,则可以通过如下公式(3)计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时的用户容量:Assuming that the coordinated transmission technology of coordinated scheduling/coordinated beamforming (CS/CB) is adopted, the user capacity of each non-serving cell when participating in coordinated transmission can be calculated by the following formula (3):
其中,RSRPS是服务小区的RSRP;ICI是服务小区和该非服务小区之外的小区间干扰;N为噪声。Among them, RSRP S is the RSRP of the serving cell; ICI is the inter-cell interference between the serving cell and the non-serving cell; N is noise.
某个非服务小区在不参与协同传输时的用户容量可以通过如下的公式(4)计算:The user capacity of a non-serving cell when not participating in coordinated transmission can be calculated by the following formula (4):
其中,RSRPS是服务小区的RSRP,RSRPC是某个非服务小区的RSRP;ICI是服务小区和该非服务小区之外的小区间干扰;N为噪声。Among them, RSRP S is the RSRP of the serving cell, RSRP C is the RSRP of a non-serving cell; ICI is the inter-cell interference between the serving cell and the non-serving cell; N is noise.
步骤1102:eNodeB分别判断各非服务小区的容量增益是否大于预先设置的容量增益门限(例如,30%),如果是,则将对应非服务小区放入协同反馈集。Step 1102: the eNodeB respectively judges whether the capacity gain of each non-serving cell is greater than a preset capacity gain threshold (for example, 30%), and if so, puts the corresponding non-serving cell into the cooperative feedback set.
在执行完上述流程之后,还可以进一步执行上述步骤304,确定最终的协同反馈集。After the above process is performed, the above step 304 may be further performed to determine the final collaborative feedback set.
在确定了协同反馈集之后,eNodeB将确定的协同反馈集配置给UE,并在接收到UE反馈的协同反馈集所包含小区的CSI后,根据UE反馈的CSI进行调度、预编码以及信令和数据传输。After determining the coordinated feedback set, the eNodeB configures the determined coordinated feedback set to the UE, and after receiving the CSI of the cells included in the coordinated feedback set fed back by the UE, performs scheduling, precoding, signaling and communication based on the CSI fed back by the UE. data transmission.
对应上述方法,本发明还提供了实现上述方法的eNodeB,如图12所示,该基站的内部主要包括:Corresponding to the above method, the present invention also provides an eNodeB for implementing the above method, as shown in FIG. 12 , the interior of the base station mainly includes:
参考信号质量参数接收单元401,用于接收用户终端UE报告的服务小区和各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数;The reference signal quality parameter receiving unit 401 is configured to receive the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell and each non-serving cell reported by the user terminal UE;
容量增益确定单元501,用于根据UE报告的服务小区和各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数分别计算各非服务小区在参与协同传输时可以获得的容量增益;以及The capacity gain determining unit 501 is configured to calculate the capacity gain that each non-serving cell can obtain when participating in coordinated transmission according to the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell and each non-serving cell reported by the UE; and
第二协同反馈集确定单元502,用于判断各非服务小区的容量增益是否大于预先设置的容量增益门限,如果是,则将对应非服务小区放入协同反馈集。The second cooperative feedback set determining unit 502 is configured to judge whether the capacity gain of each non-serving cell is greater than a preset capacity gain threshold, and if so, put the corresponding non-serving cell into the cooperative feedback set.
如前所述,上述参考信号质量参数包括RSRP或RSRQ。As mentioned above, the aforementioned reference signal quality parameters include RSRP or RSRQ.
从上述协同反馈集的选择方法以及eNodeB的内部结构可以看出,eNodeB预先估计某个非服务小区在参与协同传输时可以获得的容量增益,并根据容量增益的大小来确定是否将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,可以确保只有容量增益大于预先设置的容量增益门限的小区能够加入协同反馈集,因此,可以实现协同传输增益与反馈开销之间较好的折衷。并且,上述方法只需设置一固定的容量增益门限,且无需在不同网络场景下对该容量增益进行调整,因此,实现起来非常简单。From the selection method of the cooperative feedback set and the internal structure of the eNodeB, it can be seen that the eNodeB pre-estimates the capacity gain that a non-serving cell can obtain when participating in cooperative transmission, and determines whether to use the non-serving cell according to the size of the capacity gain. Adding a cooperative feedback set can ensure that only cells with a capacity gain greater than a preset capacity gain threshold can join the coordinated feedback set, so a better trade-off between cooperative transmission gain and feedback overhead can be achieved. Moreover, the above method only needs to set a fixed capacity gain threshold, and does not need to adjust the capacity gain in different network scenarios, so it is very simple to implement.
除上述方案之外,本发明还提供了又一种协同反馈集选择方法,其流程如图13所示,主要包括:In addition to the above solution, the present invention also provides another collaborative feedback set selection method, the flow of which is shown in Figure 13, mainly including:
步骤301:eNodeB接收UE报告的服务小区的参考信号质量参数和非服务小区的参考信号质量参数;Step 301: The eNodeB receives the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell and the reference signal quality parameters of the non-serving cell reported by the UE;
步骤1301:eNodeB分别计算服务小区的参考信号质量参数与各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数的差值,分别作为各非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值;Step 1301: eNodeB respectively calculates the difference between the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell and the reference signal quality parameter of each non-serving cell, and uses them as the difference of reference signal quality parameters corresponding to each non-serving cell;
步骤1302:eNodeB分别将各非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值与预先设置的第一门限(例如3dB)进行比较,以及分别将各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数与预先设定的第二门限进行比较,若某个非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值小于第一门限或某个非服务小区参考信号质量参数大于预先设置的第二门限,则将对应非服务小区放入协同反馈集。Step 1302: The eNodeB compares the reference signal quality parameter difference corresponding to each non-serving cell with a preset first threshold (for example, 3dB), and compares the reference signal quality parameters of each non-serving cell with the preset first threshold respectively. Two thresholds are compared, if the reference signal quality parameter difference corresponding to a certain non-serving cell is less than the first threshold or the reference signal quality parameter of a certain non-serving cell is greater than the preset second threshold, then the corresponding non-serving cell will be put into coordination feedback set.
在执行完上述流程之后,还可以进一步执行上述步骤304,确定最终的协同反馈集。After the above process is performed, the above step 304 may be further performed to determine the final collaborative feedback set.
在确定了协同反馈集之后,eNodeB将确定的协同反馈集配置给UE,并在接收到UE反馈的协同反馈集所包含小区的CSI后,根据UE反馈的CSI进行调度、预编码以及信令和数据传输。After determining the coordinated feedback set, the eNodeB configures the determined coordinated feedback set to the UE, and after receiving the CSI of the cells included in the coordinated feedback set fed back by the UE, performs scheduling, precoding, signaling and communication based on the CSI fed back by the UE. data transmission.
更进一步,在上述方法中,还可以采用如下的方法根据服务小区的参考信号质量参数的累计分布动态调整上述第二门限,具体包括:Furthermore, in the above method, the following method can also be used to dynamically adjust the above second threshold according to the cumulative distribution of the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell, specifically including:
首先,在一定的发送功率和小区半径下,统计即服务小区的参考信号质量参数的累计分布函数(CDF);First, under a certain transmission power and cell radius, the statistics are the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell;
然后,设置一个百分比设定值,例如,5%;Then, set a percentage setpoint, for example, 5%;
最后,根据服务小区参考信号质量参数的CDF,将第二门限设定为服务小区参考信号质量参数的累计分布等于该百分比设定值时的参考信号质量参数值。Finally, according to the CDF of the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell, the second threshold is set as the reference signal quality parameter value when the cumulative distribution of the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell is equal to the percentage setting value.
对应上述方法,本发明还提供了实现上述方法的eNodeB,如图14所示,该基站的内部主要包括:Corresponding to the above method, the present invention also provides an eNodeB for implementing the above method, as shown in FIG. 14 , the interior of the base station mainly includes:
参考信号质量参数接收单元401,用于接收用户终端UE报告的服务小区的参考信号质量参数和非服务小区的参考信号质量参数;The reference signal quality parameter receiving unit 401 is configured to receive the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell and the reference signal quality parameter of the non-serving cell reported by the user terminal UE;
参考信号质量参数差值确定单元601,用于分别计算服务小区的参考信号质量参数与各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数的差值,分别作为各非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值;The reference signal quality parameter difference determining unit 601 is used to calculate the difference between the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell and the reference signal quality parameter of each non-serving cell, respectively, as the reference signal quality parameter difference corresponding to each non-serving cell;
第三协同反馈集确定单元602,用于各非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值与预先设置的第一门限进行比较,以及分别将各非服务小区的参考信号质量参数与预先设定的第二门限进行比较,若某个非服务小区对应的参考信号质量参数差值小于第一门限或某个非服务小区参考信号质量参数大于预先设置的第二门限,则将对应非服务小区放入协同反馈集。The third coordinated feedback set determination unit 602 is configured to compare the reference signal quality parameter difference corresponding to each non-serving cell with a preset first threshold, and respectively compare the reference signal quality parameters of each non-serving cell with the preset For comparison with the second threshold, if the reference signal quality parameter difference corresponding to a certain non-serving cell is smaller than the first threshold or if the reference signal quality parameter of a certain non-serving cell is greater than the preset second threshold, then the corresponding non-serving cell will be put into Collaborative Feedback Set.
上述eNodeB还可以进一步包括:第二门限调整单元603,用于根据服务小区参考信号质量参数的累计分布动态调整第二门限。The above-mentioned eNodeB may further include: a second threshold adjusting unit 603, configured to dynamically adjust the second threshold according to the cumulative distribution of the reference signal quality parameter of the serving cell.
如前所述,上述参考信号质量参数包括RSRP或RSRQ。As mentioned above, the aforementioned reference signal quality parameters include RSRP or RSRQ.
从上述协同反馈集的选择方法以及eNodeB的内部结构可以看出,eNodeB通过设置两个固定的门限,一方面保证在服务小区与某个非服务小区的参考信号质量参数的差值较小的情况下将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,另一方面保证某个非服务小区自身的参考信号质量参数较大时也可以将该非服务小区加入协同反馈集,从而可以有效的增加协同传输的增益,实现协同传输增益与反馈开销之间较好的折衷。It can be seen from the selection method of the cooperative feedback set and the internal structure of the eNodeB that the eNodeB sets two fixed thresholds to ensure that the difference between the reference signal quality parameters of the serving cell and a non-serving cell is small. Next, add the non-serving cell to the cooperative feedback set. On the other hand, when the reference signal quality parameter of a non-serving cell itself is large, the non-serving cell can also be added to the cooperative feedback set, so that the gain of cooperative transmission can be effectively increased. , to achieve a better trade-off between cooperative transmission gain and feedback overhead.
