具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,并不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)在5G版本16(Rel-16)新空口(New Radio,NR)标准中引入了多种基于测量的5G定位参考信号,利用与信号到达时间有关的测量值进行定位的方法,例如:
NR下行链路到达时差定位法(DL-TDOA);
NR上行链路到达时差定位法(UL-TDOA);
NR多小区往返行程时间定位法(Multi-RTT)。
以上各种定位方法的共同点是利用与定位参考信号到达时间有关的测量值进行定位。例如,下行到达时间差(Downlink Time Difference Of Arrival,DL-TDOA)基于测量下行定位参考信号(Downlink Positioning Reference Signal,DL PRS)的到达时间差进行定位,上行到达时间差(Uplink Time Difference Of Arrival,UL-TDOA)基于测量上行测量参考信号(Uplink Sounding Reference Signal,UL SRS)的信号到达相对时间差进行定位,多小区往返时间(Multi-cell Round Trip Time,Multi-RTT)基于测量DL PRS信号和UL SRS信号的UE Rx-Tx时间差和gNB Rx-Tx时间差进行定位。这些与时间有关的测量值中,用于定位的信息是由发射机和接收机天线之间的信号传播时延得出的发射机天线和接收机天线的距离。但是,这些与时间有关的测量值不可避免地会受到其它信号传播延迟的影响。为了提高定位精度,应尽量减少和除去那些信 号传播延迟的影响。
从定位参考信号发射的角度来看,从定位参考信号生成的时刻到定位参考信号由发射机天线处发射的时刻之间存在一定的发送时间延迟(Tx Delay)。从定位参考信号接收的角度来看,从定位参考信号到达接收天线的时刻到定位参考信号检测的时刻也有接收时间延迟(Rx Delay)。
然而,当前没有工程可用的精度较高的相对群时延的测量和补偿方法。
为此,本申请实施例提出了一种UE和基站的发送通道+接收通道的相对群时延的测量和补偿方法。适用于基于与时间相关测量(例如DL RSTD,UL RTOA,UE Rx-Tx时间差和gNB Rx-Tx时差)来定位的各种定位方法(DL-TDOA、UL-TDOA和Multi-RTT等)。
UE和基站的无线电发送和接收传输通道受到滤波器,放大器和混频器的带通特性限制。射频电路中某些电气元件(例如:带通滤波器)的时延在载波带宽范围里随着频率的变化较大。尤其在5G NR系统中,一个载波频带或载波频率所覆盖的带宽很大。带宽中各个子载波的信号分量将分别经历不同的群时延,这种时延称为相对群时延。带宽越大,带宽中各个子载波之间的相对群时延越大。其时延的相对差异可达几个纳秒(ns)或更大。由于5G支持大带宽,且要求高精度定位,于是,5G定位中相对群时延对定位测量的影响不容忽视。
直射(line of sight,LOS)信道的信道频率响应:
针对单径LOS信道,在不考虑由于相位噪声和频率偏差引入的ICI条件下,只考虑LOS径传输时延、基站和UE的时钟偏差、基站和UE的绝对群时延和相对群时延条件下,第k个子载波上的频域信道响应H(k)是:

图1给出了一种理想的相对群时延的示意图。其中,横坐标表示子载波索引k,纵坐标表示相对群时延的取值,单位是ns,Relative_group_delay表示相对群时延。
但是,当前没有工程可用的精度较高的相对群时延的测量和补偿方法。如果不对相对群时延进行处理,将会直接影响TOA估计的精确度,从而影响最终的UE定位精度。因此,本申请实施例提供了信号处理方法及装置,用以实现基于相对群时延进行信号补偿,提高TOA估计的精确度,从而最终提高UE定位精度。
其中,方法和装置是基于同一申请构思的,由于方法和装置解决问题的原理相似,因此装置和方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。

本申请实施例提供的技术方案中,接收端测量频域信道响应的相位斜率值,并且通过不同子带宽的差分处理获取相对群时延的差分值,然后基于相对群时延的差分值,针对本地接收信号做接收端的接收信号预补偿,或者把相对群时延的差分值上报给发送端,由发送端对发送信号做预补偿。
下面以UE辅助的下行定位方案为例进行说明(此时,发送端是基站,接收端是UE),当然,本申请实施例提供的技术方案也适用于上行定位方案(此时,发送端是UE,接收端是基站)。
UE侧:
步骤1:UE接收LMF通知的PRS信号配置信息;
步骤2:UE基于接收到的PRS信号进行信道估计处理,得到频域信道响应H(k),例如:信道估计算法可以是基于离散傅里叶逆变换(IDFT)的算法;
步骤3:UE采用频域分段相关法或者其它的技术方案,通过测量频域信道响应H(k)的相关值的相位斜率值来获取相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N),其中,Δτ delay,sub,diff(N)表示第N个子带上面的相对群时延的差分值,其中,N表示子带索引值;
把系统带宽分为M个子带宽,每个子带包含Q个子载波(M=N_used/Q,其中,N_used表示总的可用子载波数,M、Q均为大于等于2的正整数),假设在每一段子带宽内,相对群时延Δτ delay(k)(k属于一个子带包含的索引集合)基本保持不变,因此,测量频域信道响应的相位斜率值,并且通过不同子带宽的差分处理获取相对群时延的差分值。
根据实际条件,选取一个子带作为参考子带R,以参考子带R的相对群时延为基准,第N(N≠R)个子带上的相对群时延都参考该基准来做补偿,其中,N>=1。子带的宽度可以考虑有LMF进行灵活配置。
假设k 2和k 1表示参考子带R上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 1<k 2),则可以计算得到参考子带R上的总时延τ Total,sub(R):
τ Total,sub(R)=phase(H(k 2)*conj(H(k 1)))/(-2π(k 2-k 1)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(R)                 公式(2)
其中,H(k)定义参见公式(1),Δf scs为子载波间隔,Δτ delay,sub(R)表示第R个参考子带上的相对群时延,R表示参考子带的索引值。
假设k 4和k 3表示第N(N≠R)个子带上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 3<k 4),则可以计算得到第N个子带上的总时延τ Total,sub(N):
τ Total,sub(N)=phase(H(k 4)*conj(H(k 3)))/(-2π(k 4-k 3)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(N)                    公式(3)
将公式(3)减去公式(2),可得第N个子带上面的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N):
Δτ delay,sub,diff(N)=τ Total,sub(N)-τ Total,sub(R)=Δτ delay,sub(N)-Δτ delay,sub(R)                     公式(4)
其中,H(k)定义参见公式(1),Δf scs为子载波间隔,Δτ delay,sub(N)表示第N个子带上的相对群时延,N表示子带的索引值。
步骤3中,一种相对群时延的示意图如图2所示。
步骤4:UE基于各子带相对群时延的差分值,针对本地接收信号做接收 端的接收信号补偿,或者UE把各子带相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N)上报给发送端,由发送端做发送信号预补偿。
其中,上报的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N)可以采用绝对值方式或者索引映射值方式:
Opt 1)、针对绝对值方式,直接把相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N)进行量化之后直接上报;
Opt 2)、针对索引映射值方式,UE可以将预补偿的参数值Δτ delay,diff(N)进行量化,然后基于预定义或者LMF广播的量化补偿表格,UE根据计算结果上报量化索引值(index)即可,即预先设置有量化补偿表格,该表格中包括量化后的相对群时延的差分值与索引值的对应关系,从而通过查表可以直接上报量化后的相对群时延的差分值所对应的索引值,节省上报开销。
UE基于相对群时延针对本地接收信号做接收端的接收信号补偿,获得补偿之后的频域信道响应H′(k)。

M为子带总数,Q为1个子带包含的子载波数,M*Q即为总子载波数。
步骤5:UE基于步骤4补偿之后的H′(k)进行TOA测量,获得更加准确的TOA测量值,以及做单差分之后的DL RSTD测量量。
步骤6:UE把步骤5获得的DL RSTD测量量上报给位置管理功能 (Location Management Function,LMF)实体。
基站侧:
步骤1:基站接收UE上报的各子带相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N);
步骤2:基站基于UE上报的各子带相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N),对频域发送信号X(k)做预补偿,然后对预补偿之后的X′(k)映射到第k个子载波上进行发送。
基站基于UE上报的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N),对发送信号做预补偿。

LMF侧:
步骤1:向UE发送PRS配置信息。
PRS配置信息包括但不限于:同一个成员载波(CC)或者不同CC的频域位置,PRS的时频域位置信息。通知由UE侧补偿,还是基站补偿的方案。该通知可以携带在PRS配置信息中,也可以单独发送该通知,或者也可以预先约定好由UE侧补偿还是基站补偿,无需发送该通知。
步骤2:LMF接收UE上报的DL RSTD测量量,并且利用已知的基站位置等信息进行UE位置解算。
下面以UE辅助的下行定位方案为例给出实施例1和实施例2。其中,实施例1是UE侧的接收端补偿方案,实施例2是基站侧的发送端预补偿方案。
实施例1:
UE侧:
步骤1:UE接收LMF通知的PRS信号配置信息;
步骤2:UE基于接收到的PRS信号进行信道估计处理,得到频域信道响应H(k),例如:进行基于IDFT的取窗抑噪处理;
步骤3:UE采用频域分段相关法或者其它方案,通过测量频域信道响应H(k)的相关值的相位斜率值来获取相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N);
设总带宽中子载波数为3240,把系统带宽分为270个子带宽,每个子带包含12个子载波(即一个PRB),假设在每一段子带宽内,相对群时延基本保持不变Δτ delay(k),因此,测量频域信道响应的相位斜率值,并且通过不同子带宽的差分处理获取相对群时延的差分值。
这里选择第1个子带作为参考子带,以参考子带的相对群时延为基准,第N(N≠1)个子带上的都参考该基准来做补偿。注意:参考子带位置可以是任意一个子带。
假设k 2和k 1表示参考子带1上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 1<k 2),则可以计算得到参考子带1上的总时延τ Total,sub(1):
τ Total,sub(1)=phase(H(k 2)*conj(H(k 1)))/(-2π(k 2-k 1)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(1)                   公式(8)
其中,H(k)定义参见公式(1)。
假设k 4和k 3表示第N(N≠1)个子带上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 3<k 4),则可以计算得到第N个子带上的总时延τ Total,sub(N):
τ Total,sub(N)=phase(H(k 4)*conj(H(k 3)))/(-2π(k 4-k 3)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(N)              公式(9)
将公式(9)减去公式(8),可得第N个子带上面的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N)。

步骤1:向UE发送PRS配置信息。
PRS配置信息包括但不限于:同一个CC或者不同CC的频域位置,PRS的时频域位置信息,并通知由UE侧对接收的PRS信号的频域信道响应进行相位补偿。
步骤2:LMF接收UE上报的DL RSTD测量量,并且利用已知的基站位置等信息进行UE位置解算。
实施例2:
UE侧:
步骤1:UE接收LMF通知的PRS信号配置信息;
步骤2:UE基于接收到的PRS信号进行信道估计处理,得到频域信道响应H(k),例如:进行基于IDFT的取窗抑噪处理;
步骤3:UE采用频域分段相关法或者其它方案,通过测量频域信道响应H(k)的相关值的相位斜率值来获取相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N);
设总带宽中子载波数为3240,把系统带宽分为810个子带宽,每个子带包含4个子载波,假设在每一段子带宽内,相对群时延基本保持不变Δτ delay(k),因此,测量频域信道响应的相位斜率值,并且通过不同子带宽的差分处理获取相对群时延的差分值。
这里选择第R=405个子带作为参考子带,以参考子带的相对群时延为基准,第N(N≠405)个子带上的都参考该基准来做补偿。
假设k 2和k 1表示参考子带405上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 1<k 2),则可以计算得到参考子带上的总时延τ Total,sub(405):
τ Total,sub(405)=phase(H(k 2)*conj(H(k 1)))/(-2π(k 2-k 1)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(405)                公式(13)
其中,H(k)定义参见公式(1)。
假设k 4和k 3表示第N(N≠405)个子带上面的任意两个子载波索引(k 3<k 4),则可以计算得到第N个子带上的总时延τ Total,sub(N):
τ Total,sub(N)=phase(H(k 4)*conj(H(k 3)))/(-2π(k 4-k 3)Δf scs)=τ LOS+Δt+Δτ delay,sub(N)                   公式(14)
采用公式(14)减去公式(13),可得第N个子带上面的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N)。
Δτ delay,diff(N)=τ Total,sub(N)-τ Total,sub(405)=Δτ delay,sub(N)-Δτ delay,sub(405)                公式(15)
步骤4:UE把各子带相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,sub,diff(N)上报给发送端,由发送端做发送信号预补偿。
其中,上报的相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N)可以采用绝对值方式或者索引映射值方式:
Opt 1)、针对绝对值方式,直接把相对群时延的差分值Δτ delay,diff(N)进行量化之后直接上报;
Opt 2)、针对索引映射值方式,UE可以将预补偿的参数值Δτ delay,diff(N)进 行量化,然后基于预定义或者LMF广播的量化补偿表格,UE根据计算结果上报量化索引值(index)即可,从而节省上报开销。
步骤5:UE基于步骤4补偿之后的H′(k)进行基于TOA测量,获得更加准确的TOA测量值以及做单差分之后的DL RSTD测量值。
步骤6:UE把步骤5获得的DL RSTD测量量上报给LMF。

步骤2:LMF接收UE上报的DL RSTD测量量,并且利用已知的基站位置等信息进行UE位置解算。
