Description

Reference signal configuration and positioning method, device and storage medium
Technical Field
The embodiments of the present invention relate to, but not limited to, the field of communications, and in particular, but not limited to, a method, an apparatus, and a storage medium for configuring and positioning a reference signal.
Background
The need for location from commercial services and emergency call management has driven the development of location in wireless networks. Third generation partnership project long term evolution (3 GPP LTE) has introduced support for positioning since release 9.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) can support the outdoor positioning requirement well, but the GPS positioning effect is seriously affected in some places, both indoors and outdoors, where the satellite signals are blocked. Such scenarios require other positioning methods. The 3GPP introduced a positioning method based on Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) of downlink signals from release 9. The ue measures times of Arrival (TOA, time of Arrival) of signals transmitted from a plurality of base stations at its own location. The Time Difference of arrival (RSTD) is obtained by subtracting the Time of arrival of the adjacent cell signal from the Time of arrival of the reference base station, and the position of the final UE can be obtained from the Time differences of arrival of the multiple cells and the reference cell.
In principle any downstream signal can be used for the measurement. However, OTDOA requires that the user can measure signals from multiple cells simultaneously, which requires that the measured signals have good audibility, and the existing reference signals in the current 5G standard can meet this requirement to some extent, but the effect of direct positioning is still not ideal due to time domain density and bandwidth configuration.

s101, determining available TRS transmission resources currently available for transmitting a tracking reference signal TRS.
As an implementation manner of this embodiment, the available TRS transmission resource is a resource that can be used for network element full-band TRS transmission.
Optionally, the available TRS transmission resources include: time domain resources for which synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block (SSB, SS/PBCH block) transmission is not performed.
As an implementation manner of this embodiment, the time domain resource that is not subjected to SSB transmission includes at least one of the following: static available resources, dynamic available resources; the static available resources are time domain resources which do not carry out SSB sending all the time, and the dynamic available resources are time domain resources which do not carry out SSB sending at present and have SSB sending capability. In general, the frequency band of the available resources below 3Ghz can be the last 3ms of each half frame, while the frequency band above 3Ghz and below 6Ghz is the last 1ms, and there is no SSB transmission all the time, which is called static available resources.
And S102, sending the available TRS sending resource to a positioning server.
In this embodiment, the network element reports the available TRS transmission resource to the positioning server, and the positioning server integrates the available resources of each network element to determine TRS configuration information for positioning.

In some implementations of this embodiment, the TRS suggested configuration information includes at least one of: TRS resource (TRS resource) configuration information, TRS bundle (set) configuration information, TRS transmission period (T) CSI-RS ) Configuration information, slot offset (T) offset ) Configuration information, cyclic Prefix (CP) type configuration information, subcarrier interval configuration information, slot number configuration information, time domain configuration information of TRS resources in each slot, and a bandwidth.
Optionally, the time domain configuration information of the TRS resource in each time slot is scalable. I.e., by extending the time domain configuration information of the TRS to support more intensive TRS transmissions.
In some embodiments of this embodiment, the extending the time domain configuration information of the TRS resource in each time slot includes: a slot for increasing a symbol position for transmission TRS and/or a number of slots for consecutive transmission TRS.

In practical applications, the network element does not perform the configuration of the TRS resources according to the TRS recommended configuration information sent by the Positioning server under all conditions, so that the configured TRS resources do not match the expected TRS resources, and therefore the network element needs to send the actual configuration information of the TRS used for configuring the TRS under actual conditions to the Positioning server through an NR Positioning Protocol a (NRPPa) message under such conditions.

S202, TRS detection is carried out according to the TRS suggested configuration information, and the position of the TRS is determined.
The UE may select a corresponding frequency band according to a Part of a Bandwidth (BWP, bandwidth Part) range supported by the UE for TRS detection, where the TRS suggested configuration information is sent from the location server or one of network elements within a range managed by the location server.
By the reference signal configuration method provided by the embodiment of the invention, in some implementation processes, each network element in the management range of the positioning server respectively determines available TRS transmission resources which can be used for transmitting TRS currently, and transmits the available TRS transmission resources to the positioning server; the positioning server respectively receives the available TRS transmission resources sent by each network element, determines TRS suggested configuration information by combining the available TRS transmission resources of each network element, and then sends the TRS suggested configuration information to each network element; each network element configures TRS resources for sending TRSs based on the TRS proposal configuration information; the UE carries out TRS detection according to TRS suggested configuration information sent by the positioning server or each network element so as to determine the position of the UE. Under the condition of not increasing the complexity of the system obviously, the existing reference signal mechanism is adjusted, the audibility of the reference signal is improved, and the positioning accuracy is improved.
