2 is a flowchart illustrating an RRM measuring method of a first transmission / reception point and a terminal according to another embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 2, in the network supporting CoMP, each terminal determines a target of RRM measurement (S210). The RRM measurement target may refer to a transmission / reception point and an element carrier allocated to the transmission / reception point and an object for measuring a measurement value of a reference signal received by the terminal as described below regardless of these.
Next, the network sends a higher layer message to the RRM measurement configuration element including an RRM measurement object including an RRM measurement object including information about a reference signal resource to be used for RRM measurement. For example, it transmits to the terminal 120 through RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling and a downlink control channel (S220). At this time, the first transmission and
The network uses the first transmission /
For example, the first transmission /
Information on the CSI-RS resources to be used for the RRM measurement, the number of CSI-RS transmission ports, the location of the RE, information about the CSI-RS sequence, the transmission power offset with the PDSCH (sub) to which the CSI-RS is transmitted It includes all the information needed to measure channel status information, such as frame location information, or 1) the location of CSI-RS port 15 RE, 2) information on the CSI-RS sequence, and 3) the CSI-RS transmission. It may be information about a subframe or subframe offset. Information on at least one CSI-RS resource may be used to construct a CSI-RS list necessary for RRM measurement.
This RRM measurement configuration element may follow the form of a general measurement configuration that supports the control of UE mobility as follows.
1. Measurement object
The measurement object performs RRM measurement through cell list information and CSI-RS transmitted by the second transmission /
A part of the measurement object or the first measurement object includes cell information including a frequency, a bandwidth, and a cell ID for performing CRS measurement as cell list information. The cell list information consists of at least one cell information.
Another part or second measurement object of the measurement object is a CSI-RS list and includes information on at least one CSI-RS resource or CSI-RS configuration information for each UE to perform RRM measurement. The reference signal list information includes at least one CSI-RS configuration information. Information on the CSI-RS resources is as follows.
a) information on a frequency and band (carrier frequency and bandwidth) for performing CSI-RS measurement and information on a cell ID for each CC. In this case, each CC has a different cell ID (PCI). In the above information, the information on the CC is defined by three values: a frequency and a band, a cell ID for each CC, and three values. Each component carrier and CSI-RS port 15 or port 16 to be measured in each component carrier and may include pairing information between at least one CSI-RS port. Alternatively, the following information about the CSI-RS may be defined for each CC.
b) CSI-RS port 15 includes information on the location of the mapped RE or at least one CSI-RS port is mapped to the location of the RE and the number of the port.
In the wireless communication system, as illustrated in FIG. 3, one, two, four, or eight CSI-RSs using patterns p = 15, p = 15,16, p = 15-18, and p = 15-22, respectively. Transmitted at the antenna port. Since all transmission / reception points performing CSI-RS transmission use CSI-RS port 15 regardless of the number of antennas, they are suitable for the RRM measurement of CSI-RS. In addition, it is also appropriate to use CSI-RS ports 15 and 16 as CSI-RS RRM measurement targets because CSI-RS configuration uses two or more ports for CSI-RS transmission in most cases. In the above case, among the tables representing the CSI-RS patterns of the 3GPP Rel-10, information on the location of the RE may be displayed by 5 bits using a table indicating the case where two CSI-RS ports are used.
The CSI-RS RRM measurement method is provided for the CSI-RS port 15 or the CSI-RS ports 15 and 16, but in addition, the RRM measurement is possible for at least one CSI-RS port. In both cases, the information on the location of the RE may be indicated by one or more indexes. The index may be selected using a table that illustrates the CSI-RS pattern defined in 3GPP Rel-10 or by using a portion of the table. Table showing the CSI-RS pattern of 3GPP Rel-10 shows the CSI-RS pattern represented by a specific number of bits, for example, 5 bits depending on whether the normal / extended CP is used, the FDD / TDD method, and the number of CSI-RS ports. The index may be selected to indicate the location of the REs used for CSI-RS transmission.
In the case of instructing power measurement for three or more ports in measuring the received power of each CSI-RS, the information about the RE position for each CSI-RS indicates an index indicating the number of ports and the CSI-RS pattern. It can be composed of an index.
For example, if only CSI-RS port 15 or CSI-RS ports 15 and 16 are used in measuring the received power of each CSI-RS, the information is used several times in the pattern defined in CSI-RS port 2. It can be composed of a factor of 5 bits indicating whether or not.
c) In measuring the CSI-RS, transmit information on the CSI-RS sequence to be considered when reviewing the RE.
The above information may be a direct factor indicating a CSI-RS sequence, a value for one of various factors used when generating a CSI-RS sequence, a value for the at least one factor, or It may be a value indicated by a combination of factors. For example, the initial value used to generate the CSI sequence,
Where n s is the slot number of the frame and N CP is the type of CP, which is 1 for normal CP and 0 for extended CP.
In transmitting information about a cell ID), the value is directly transmitted or is a cell ID. You can use this method to pass a value corresponding to.d) may include information on subframes to watch in measuring the CSI-RS.
The above information may be a location of a subframe in which each CSI-RS is transmitted, and may be a location of a subframe in which a UE should perform CSI-RS measurement among subframes in which each CSI-RS is transmitted.
The above information may be information indicating an exact position of a subframe in which each CSI-RS measurement should be performed, information on a period and subframe offset of a measurement in which the measurement should be performed, and perform CSI-RS measurement. It may be subframe offset information for a subframe to be performed.
For example, when offset = 20 is set, the UE performs the first measurement in the 20th subframe when measuring the CSI-RS and has the same 200ms period as the RRM (Radio Resource Management) measurement through the CRS. Measurement can be performed.
In summary, the information on the measurement object in the RRM measurement configuration element may consist of a combination of the following elements.
In order to transmit the above combination with the cell list indicating RRM measurement performed through CRS, the RRM measurement object configuration described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5 may be configured.
4 and 5 are examples of an RRM measurement object configuration.
Referring to FIG. 4, when listing a cell list for performing RRM measurement in an RRM measurement object configuration, information may be included in a cell list in a frequency and band, a cell ID, and at least one CSI-RS resource.
Referring to FIG. 5, the RRM measurement object configuration may include a cell list for performing RRM measurement through CRS and a CSI-RS list for performing RRM measurement through CSI-RS as separate RRM measurement objects.
As shown in FIG. 5, the RRM measurement object MeasObjectCoM1 for performing RRM measurement through CRS includes a cell list of a frequency (Carrier freq), a bandwidth (Bandwidth), and a cell ID (CellID). In this case, the cell ID may be a PCI shared by the first transmission /
The RRM measurement object (MeasObjectCoM2) for performing RRM measurement through CSI-RS includes frequency (carrier freq) and bandwidth (bandwidth), cell ID (CellID), CSI-RS RE location (RELoc), and CSI-RS sequence (Sequence ID). ), A reference signal (CSI-RS) list of the position or offset of the subframe. In this case, the cell ID (CellID) is a PCI of the CC to which the CSI-RS is allocated or an indicator indicating the same.
In this case, since the object is added or removed through separate signaling, the information is modified or updated, and thus the UE may indicate a change in the CSI-RS configuration information to perform RRM measurement. For example, the information included in the measurement object may be modified in a format such as RSToAddList / RSToRemoveList (modify (add or remove).
2. Reporting configuration
Reporting configuration is composed of information indicating the measurement report of the terminal, each information consists of the following two elements as shown in Table 2.
Reporting configuration information, which may include information on the frequency of the received power (RSRP) reporting of the CSI-RS, and information for separately setting the period or offset of the measurement report for each band or CSI-RS It may be included in an RRM measurement configuration element, but is not limited thereto.
Reporting configuration is given as a list of information in Table 2.
3. Measurement identities
Measurement identities are information about linking between each measurement object and each reporting configuration. For example, two or more measurement objects can be linked to one reporting configuration, or two or more reporting configurations can be linked to the same measurement objects. .
Measurement identities are given in the list of information.
4. Measurement gaps
Measurement gaps define a time period during which the UE can perform measurement because uplink or downlink transmission is not scheduled. For each CSI-RS signal for which the UE should perform CSI-RS measurement, a different measurement period may be set or the same measurement period may be set. When there is no separate instruction, the UE performs power measurement at the same period for all CSI-RS signals. When there is no separate instruction, the UE performs CSI-RS measurement at a specific period, for example, a period of 200 ms.
Next, the first transmission /
The terminal 120 performs RRM measurement through the CRS transmitted by the first transmission /
The terminal 120 reports the RRM measurement information to a transmission / reception point selected for reporting as a measurement result based on the received reporting configuration information. (S250). The transmission / reception point selected for reporting may be the first transmission /
In other words, the terminal 120 receives from the second transmission /
The RRM measurement information may be a reference signal received power (RSRP), which is a reference signal reception power, but is not limited thereto, and may be one of a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and a reference signal received quality (RSRQ). Also, it may be another value derived from the CSI-RS received power, and may be information about the relative strength or the magnitude of the signal strength and interference calculated by each CSI-RS received power and other CSI-RS received power. Or information about a ratio of interference measured through CSI-RS received power and other signals or channels. Alternatively, the information may include two values of CSI-RS received power and interference.
The terminal 120 reports the RRM measurement value to the network periodically as a result of the RRM measurement, or (2) reports the network request aperiodically, or the network including the first transmission /
The terminal 120 obtains two or more RRM measurements for each cell or CC (CC0 to CC2) through CRS and CSI-RS, and various methods as described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. By comparing the RRM measurement values, the RRM measurement value for each cell may be determined, and the RRM measurement value may be reported to the network through one or more transmission / reception points.
FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of determining an RRM measurement value of a terminal in S240 of FIG. 2.
Referring to FIG. 6, the terminal 120 performs RRM measurement on each cell or component carrier CC0 through CC2 through CRS based on cell list information included in the received RRM measurement object. RRM CRS for CC0, RRM CRS for CC1, and RRM CRS for CC2) are acquired (S610).
The terminal 120 measures RRM measurement values (RRM CSI - RS for CC0, RRM) for each cell or CC (CC0 to CC2) through the CSI-RS based on the CSI-RS list. CSI - RS for CC1, RRM CSI - RS for CC2) is obtained (S620).
The terminal 120 sequentially transmits two RRM measurement values (RRM CRS for CCn, RRM CSI - RS) for each CC through CRS and CSI-RS from the first CC CC3 to the third CC CC2. for CCn) (n = 0 to 2) is compared (S630).
If the RRM measurement value (RRM CRS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CRS is greater than or equal to the RRM measurement value (RRM CSI-RS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CSI-RS , 120 determines the RRM measurement value (RRM CRS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier as the RRM measurement value (RRM for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CRS (S640).
If the RRM measurement value (RRM CRS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CRS is smaller than the RRM measurement value (RRM CSI - RS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CSI - RS , the terminal 120 The RRM measurement value (RRM CSI - RS for CCn) for the n-th component carrier is determined as the RRM measurement value (RRM for CCn) for the n-th component carrier through the CSI - RS (S650).
As a result, as shown in FIG. 1B, the terminal 120 is good for the first CC CC0, good for the second CC CC1, and third CC. Report the RRM measurement for the link that is bad for (CC2). When reporting the results, a factor indicating whether the RRM for each cell is measured based on CRS or measured through CSI-RS may be reported together.
The network allocates the second component carrier CC1 to the terminal as the SCell based on the RRM measurement result. After the assignment, the network recognizes that the second component carrier CC1 shows high link performance for the link between the second transmission /
Although not shown, the network determines a measurement set as a target to measure channel state information using the information reported by the terminal and transmits the measurement set information to the terminal 120. The terminal 120 receives the CSI-RS from the transmission and reception points and measures channel state information by using the CSI-RS of the transmission and reception points corresponding to the measurement set. The terminal 120 reports channel state information of the transmission / reception points corresponding to the measurement set to the transmission / reception point (s) selected for CSI reporting through PUCCH / PUSCH. In this case, the selected transmission / reception point may be the first transmission /
Next, at least one transmission / reception point and the terminal 120 cooperatively communicate (transmit), thereby driving CoMP / CA (operation). CoMP driving (operation) may be joint processing (JP, hereinafter referred to as "JP") and cooperative scheduling / beamforming (Coordinated Scheduling / Beamforming, called "CS / CB"). In this case, a carrier aggregation (CA) that communicates using CoMP and two or more CCs may be simultaneously implemented for each UE, and only one of the two may be supported at each instant.
Meanwhile, the first component carrier CC0 and the second component carrier CC1 operate as CoMPs of the first transmission /
In addition, only the first CC (CC0) and the first and second transmission points 110, 112 operate in CoMP and the second CC (CC1) is assigned only to the second transmission and
In addition, the first component carrier CC0 supports CoMP driving of the first transmission /
As another embodiment, the terminal 120 may separate the RRM measurement through the CRS and the RRM measurement through the CSI-RS and report the information to the network as separate information. As described with reference to FIG. 6, instead of the terminal 120 reporting one RRM value to the network for the first to third component carriers CC0 to CC2, CRS based RRM for each component carrier (CC). And CSI-RS-based RRM measurement values are separately reported to report two RRMs for each cell to the network, and the network compares the above values to determine whether to support CoMP for each CC and to select an optimal transmit / receive point for each CC, and add a SCell. The work can be done at the same time.

Referring to FIG. 7, in the wireless communication system, one first transmission /
Looking at the configuration of the CSI-RS resources on the CoMP network, (1) the transmission and reception point having the same PCID (Physical Cell ID, Cell Unique Index, PCI) can use at least one CSI-RS resource, and (2) different PCID At least one transmission / reception point used may have the same CSI-RS resource, and (3) at least one transmission / reception point (having the same PCID or different PCID) may constitute one CSI-RS resource. In other words. The CSI-RSs transmitted by the at least one transmitting end may be combined to form one CSI-RS. Two or more transmitters may transmit different CSI-RSs, but the UE may recognize one or more of the two transmissions as one CSI-RS transmission. In other words, each transmit / receive point may transmit a subset (or subset) of CSI-RS.
FIG. 8 is a flowchart of another embodiment of determining an RRM measurement value of a UE in S240 of FIG. 2.
Referring to FIG. 8, the terminal 120 performs RRM measurement on each cell or each CC (CC0 to CC2) through the CRS based on the cell list information included in the received RRM measurement object to measure the RRM measurements. (RRM CRS for CC0, RRM CRS for CC1, RRM CRS for CC2) is acquired (S810).
The terminal 120 performs RRM measurement values (RRM CSI - RS for CC0,) for each cell or each component carrier CC0 to CC2 of the second and third transmission / reception points through the CSI-RS based on the CSI-RS list. RRM CSI - RS for CC1, RRM CSI - RS for CC2) is acquired (S820).
The terminal 120 determines, as the RRM measurement results, three RRM measurements for one CRS and two CSI-RSs for the same frequency band or component carrier, or an RRM measurement based on two CSI-RSs. The RRM measurement value for the highest value (the best link state) and the RRM measurement value for the CRS can be determined as the RRM measurement result. Alternatively, the highest value of all the RRM measurement values may be determined as the RRM measurement result (S830). In this case, a high RRM measurement means an RRM measurement for a good link.
The terminal 120 may report the measurement result to the network. In this case, a factor indicating whether the RRM is measured through CRS or CSI-RS may be transmitted, or a factor indicating which CSI-RS is measured through the RRM may be transmitted.
In the above description, the RRM measuring method according to the embodiment of the present invention has been described as being performed by the same procedure as in FIGS. Depending on the implementation method, the execution procedure of each step may be changed, two or more steps may be integrated, or one step may be performed in two or more steps.
