- PUSCH with UCI indicates a PUSCH that multiplexes UCI
- PUSCH without UCI indicates a PUSCH that does not multiplex UCI. Therefore, if power scaling occurs during simultaneous transmission of multiple UL channels, the first is the PUCCH transmission power, the second is the PUSCH transmission power that multiplexes UCI, and the third is the PUSCH transmission power that does not multiplex UCI.

- the present inventor came to make the present invention by paying attention to the following points. That is, in LTE-A, when PUSCH is scheduled (transmitted with transmission allocation (UL grant)) in Pcell (Primary Cell) or PCC (Primary Component Carrier), the PUSCH of Pcell (PCC) Multiplexing UCI is used as a method for selecting a CC (PUSCH) for multiplexing UCI.

- the Pcell communication quality information obtained from the Pcell reception SRS can be changed to information that is not affected by power scaling at the terminal (no misrecognition regarding the UE transmission power occurs between the eNB and the UE). Therefore, the eNB can be more appropriately operated in the subsequent scheduling (resource allocation) and transmission power (AMC: AdaptiveAdModulation channel Coding) control in the Pcell where UCI is likely to be transmitted.

- the power scaling method 3 is applied when simultaneous transmission of multiple SRSs in multiple CCs and power scaling occurs.
- Pcell And Scell simultaneous transmission in Scell Scell SRS may be dropped.
- FIG. 7 shows a case where two SRSs of CC # 0 and CC # 2 of Scell are dropped when SRSs are transmitted simultaneously in CC # 0 to CC # 2.
- calculations necessary for power allocation processing between CCs can be omitted.
- the number of test steps for terminals (or eNBs) related to power scaling which is indispensable for commercialization of LTE-A, is greatly increased. Can be reduced.
- periodic SRS when periodic SRS and aperiodic SRS are transmitted by Scell, periodic SRS may be dropped preferentially over aperiodic SRS. Also, this method is (A) simultaneous transmission of multiple SRSs in multiple CCs, and when power scaling occurs, and (B) simultaneous transmission of SRSs in Pcell and Scell without power scaling. This may be applied in either case.
- Aperiodic SRS is newly introduced in LTE-A, and is triggered by PDCCH, which is a physical layer downlink control channel, for eNB to measure new quality information with low delay.
- PDCCH which is a physical layer downlink control channel
- the periodic SRS (the transmission cycle, trigger, timer, etc.) is configured by higher layer signaling, and therefore only low speed control can be performed. Therefore, the same effect as described above can be obtained while reflecting the characteristics of this aperiodic SRS (the latest eNB determination regarding CQI measurement using SRS) in the power scaling process. Further, in the case of (B) above, an effect that the number of test steps of the terminal (or eNB) relating to power scaling can be reduced is obtained.
- FIG. 8 shows that at the same symbol position of the same subframe (for example, the final symbol position of the subframe), the aperiodic SRS is triggered by CC # 0 of Scell, the periodic SRS is triggered by CC # 2 of Scell, and Pcell When nothing is transmitted in CC # 1, the periodic SRS in CC # 2 in Scell is dropped.
- Fig. 9 shows an outline of power scaling method 4.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted, and the control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling) # 0 is set to Scell, CC # 1 is set to Pcell, and CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- the transmission power of the Scell SRS before power scaling is larger for the CC # 2 SRS than for the CC # 0 SRS.
- Power scaling is performed by preferentially dropping the CC # 0 SRS.
- the SRS with lower transmission power is more likely to fall below the SRS detection level that can be received at the eNB (for example, the noise level at the eNB), so the SRS transmission power with lower Scell transmission power is preferentially reduced.
- the measurement accuracy using Scell's SRS that does not reduce transmission power can be maintained while maintaining high-accuracy quality measurement in Pcell.
- Power scaling method 5 In the power scaling method 5, when there are a plurality of Scell SRSs, the power scaling control unit 109 uniformly reduces the Scell multiple SRS transmission power (holds (does not change) the transmission power of the Pcell SRS) ( The same transmission power value is reduced and the same scaling (weight) is applied).
- Fig. 10 shows an outline of power scaling method 5.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in 3CC (CC # 0 to CC # 2), and CC # 0 is Scell by the control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling).
- CC # 1 is set to Pcell, and CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- a method of uniformly reducing the transmission power a method of reducing the same transmission power value (true value, decibel value), applying the same scaling (weight) (applied in LTE-A), or the like is used. Also good.
- the scaling weight for SRS may be used, and the same scaling weight as another UL channel (for example, PUSCH) may be used for SRS.
- the scaling weight is a parameter notified from the eNB to the terminal in advance.
- FIG. 11 shows an outline of the power scaling method 6.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in 3CC (CC # 0 to CC # 2), and CC # 0 is Scell by the control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling).
- CC # 1 is set to Pcell, and CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- the SRSs of CC # 0 and CC # 2 set in the Scell are used. It shows how to drop uniformly.
- all SRSs may be dropped in the order of CC (cell) numbers (ascending / descending order) without dropping all SRSs uniformly.
- FIG. 12 shows an outline of the power scaling method 7.
- 3CC CC # 0 to CC # 2
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted, and CC # 0 is set to Scell by a control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling).
- CC # 1 is set to Pcell
- CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- the transmission power of the SRS having the maximum transmission power among the multiple SRSs When the difference from Scell's SRS transmission power is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, the Scell's SRS is dropped. In FIG. 12, this corresponds to the case where the SRS of Scell CC # 2 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value from the maximum transmission power of the Pcell CC # 1 SRS.
- the SRS intermodulation distortion of CCs with large transmission power may be larger than the transmission powers of SRSs of different CCs.
- This intermodulation distortion cannot be removed by the transmission filter. That is, if it transmits as it is in such a case, eNB will measure the communication quality of applicable CC by SRS which received the influence of the intermodulation distortion, and cannot perform correct scheduling and transmission power control. Therefore, when the SRS SRS transmission power is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold from the maximum SRS transmission power, the above problem can be avoided by dropping the Scell SRS.
- the value may be adaptively changed according to a path loss (measurement) value or the like.
- the transmission power of the channel having the maximum transmission power in the simultaneous transmission UL channel may be used as the reference value instead of the transmission power of the SRS having the maximum transmission power of the plurality of SRSs. Thereby, the same effect is acquired.
- FIG. 13 shows an outline of the power scaling method 8.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in 3 CCs (CC # 0 to CC # 2), and CC # 0 is Scell by the control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling).
- CC # 1 is set to Pcell, and CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- the SRS SRS transmission power of the Scell is below a certain threshold value in the multiple SRSs. In this case, the state of dropping Scell SRS is shown.
- the transmission power of the CC SRS is too small, the transmission signal cannot be expressed correctly at the resolution of the D / A (Digital / Analog) converter of the terminal (transmission side).
- D / A Digital / Analog
- the threshold by introducing a threshold and dropping an SRS having a transmission power equal to or lower than the threshold, useless transmission processing (a complicated design of D / A considering (covering) a low transmission power value) can be avoided. (Useless transmission power consumption can be avoided).
- the power scaling control unit 109 drops according to the length of the periodic SRS transmission period (reducing power allocation priority, reducing transmission power, not transmitting, and transmitting power to zero).
- Select the CC SRS Specifically, the periodic SRS having a long transmission cycle is selected as the SRS of the CC to be preferentially dropped, or the periodic SRS having the short transmission cycle is selected as the SRS of the CC to be preferentially dropped.
- Adaptive modulation / demodulation (AMC) and time-frequency domain scheduling can be controlled with high accuracy, and UE individual throughput and system throughput due to multi-user diversity can be improved.
- the power scaling control unit 109 drops according to the bandwidth of the SRS (reducing power allocation priority, reducing transmission power, not transmitting, setting transmission power to zero) CC SRS is selected. Specifically, SRS having a wide bandwidth is preferentially dropped over SRS having a narrow bandwidth, or SRS having a narrow bandwidth is preferentially dropped over SRS having a wide bandwidth.
- the transmission power of the LTE-A (LTE) UL channel is determined by the transmission bandwidth and power spectrum density (PSD). Therefore, the number of dropped SRSs can be reduced as much as possible by lowering the transmission power allocation priority of the wide bandwidth SRS that has a large influence on the total transmission power. For example, when the SRS bandwidth of 1 CC is B under the condition that the SRS total bandwidth of multiple CCs is B, and the case where the SRS bandwidth of each CC is 2/2 in 2 CCs, If the SRS bandwidth drops B preferentially, the number of dropped CCs can be reduced.

- a threshold value may be introduced in the bandwidth determination, and the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped when the bandwidth between SRSs or a difference between them exceeds the threshold value.
- the SRS power allocation priority of the corresponding CC may be lowered as the ratio between the bandwidth for each CC and the SRS bandwidth (for example, SRS bandwidth / bandwidth for each CC) increases.
- a threshold value may be introduced in the bandwidth determination, and the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped when the bandwidth between SRSs or a difference between them exceeds the threshold value.
- the SRS power allocation priority of the corresponding CC may be lowered as the ratio between the bandwidth for each CC and the SRS bandwidth (for example, SRS bandwidth / bandwidth for each CC) is smaller.
- the power scaling control unit 109 controls the control information (UL or DL grant) included in the control channel PDCCH of the physical layer among the SRSs of the plurality of Scells, or Increase the SRS power allocation priority of the CC for which UCI is triggered by the control information notified by higher layer signaling. For example, the SRS power allocation priority of the CC in which UCI such as aperiodic CSI is triggered is increased.
- the power scaling control unit 109 is notified (or is notified by control information (UL or DL grant) included in the control channel PDCCH of the physical layer or signaling of an upper layer) ) Decrease the SRS power allocation priority of the CC for which UCI is not triggered by the control information (not drop) (preferentially drop, reduce transmission power, stop transmission, or set transmission power to zero). For example, the SRS power allocation priority of the CC in which UCI such as aperiodic CSI is not triggered (not) by the UL grant is lowered.
- FIG. 14 shows an outline of the power scaling method 11.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in SCC 2CC (CC # 0, CC # 2), and CC # 0 is Scell, CC # by a control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling). 1 is set to Pcell, and CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- UCI such as aperiodic CSI is used in UL grant in 2Scell 2SRS. Increase the SRS power allocation priority of the CC that is triggered.
- UCI is triggered in the past subframe
- CC # 0 shows a case where UCI is not triggered.
- the triggered Scell may retain its priority for a predetermined period. Further, the priority may be maintained until UCI is newly triggered by another CC. Further, when there are a plurality of Scells triggered by UCI, SRS power scaling may be performed according to the latest trigger information. Moreover, when there are a plurality of Scells in which UCI is triggered and they are triggered at the same time, the power scaling priority may be determined according to the UL CC ID number (ascending order / descending order).
- the power scaling control unit 109 preferentially drops an SRS having a low PSD over an SRS having a high PSD (reducing power allocation priority, reducing transmission power, not transmitting, transmission power). To zero).
- the SRS intermodulation distortion of CCs with large PSDs may be larger than the SRS PSDs of different CCs.
- This intermodulation distortion cannot be removed by the transmission filter. That is, if it transmits as it is in such a case, eNB will measure the communication quality of applicable CC by SRS which received the influence of the intermodulation distortion, and cannot perform correct scheduling and transmission power control. In response to this problem, the corresponding CC can be accurately measured by transmitting only the SRS having a high PSD that is not easily affected by the intermodulation distortion.
- FIG. 15 shows an outline of the power scaling method 12.

- harmonic distortion intermodulation distortion
- SRS having a low PSD that is susceptible to intermodulation distortion is dropped.
- the SRS may be based on (PUSCH, SRS) transmission power control parameters related to calculating the PSD value. For example, these values such as TPC command accumulated value, transport block size, offset parameter (TF) related to MCS level, SRS offset value for transmission power of PUSCH, number of bits per RE (TB size / assigned RE number), etc. Since the SRS becomes higher as the SRS becomes higher, the SRS to be dropped may be selected based on these values. Also, the smaller the number of allocated REs (Resource Elements) or the number of allocated subcarriers, the higher the SRS with the PSD. Therefore, the SRS to be dropped may be selected based on these values.
- threshold values may be introduced for the PSD and each of the above parameters, and when those values exceed the threshold values, the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped.
- Embodiment 1 when multiple SRSs are transmitted simultaneously using Pcells and Scells, when power scaling occurs, transmission power allocation is performed with priority given to Pcell SRSs over Scell SRSs.
- the CC of the SRS having a low power allocation priority is the same CC as the CC that multiplexes UCI. Therefore, the propagation channel quality information of Pcell with a high probability of UCI being multiplexed can be estimated with high accuracy by SRS having a high power allocation priority, and the eNB can appropriately transmit to the UL channel transmitting the subsequent UCI. Power can be commanded.
- the method described on the assumption that the above-described multiple Scells are applied to multiple SRSs can be similarly applied when multiple SRSs exist in Pcells and multiple SRSs exist in multiple Pcells.
- the transmission power is reduced by using the scaling weight for SRS notified from the eNB to the terminal (by higher layer signaling). Also good.

- Power scaling method 13 In the power scaling method 13, when (periodic / aperiodic) SRS and PUCCH are transmitted simultaneously, Rel. In 8 LTE, only 1 CC having a band such as 20 MHz is used. In simultaneous transmission of SRS and PUCCH within 1 CC, in order to avoid an increase in PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) of transmission signals (multi-carrier transmission), for PUCCH, the final of one subframe is obtained by rate matching. A short-format PUCCH that does not transmit an SC-FDMA symbol is used, and only a periodic SRS is transmitted in the last SC-FDMA symbol of one subframe (see FIG. 16).

- Non-Patent Document 1 has the following problems when (periodic / aperidic) SRS and PUCCH are transmitted simultaneously. That is, when the SRS transmission power is reduced (halfway) based on the rule of lowering the power allocation priority of the transmission power of the SRS from the transmission power of the PUCCH so as to satisfy the maximum transmission power of each UE, As described above, the eNB basically does not have information such as when the power scaling of the terminal has occurred. For this reason, it is misrecognized that the quality of the propagation channel of mobile communication that is likely to fluctuate in time is deteriorated, not the occurrence of power scaling at the terminal, because the reception level of SRS is lowered.
- a notification is made to use a large transmission power value (low MCS value) that is higher than a value necessary to satisfy the predetermined reception quality.
- a large transmission power value low MCS value
- PUSCH multiplexed UCI
- excessive quality UL channel transmission is performed in the subsequent UL channel such as PUSCH (if the instruction is made to increase the transmission power, the co-channel interference to other cells is increased. It also causes new problems such as unnecessarily increasing the power consumption of the terminal).
- FIG. 17 shows an outline of the power scaling method 13.

- FIG. 18 shows a transmitter configuration when PUCCH and SRS are simultaneously transmitted between different CCs.
- control information (ACK / NACK, CQI, etc.) to be transmitted on the PUCCH is input to the encoding / modulation unit 110-1, processing is performed in the same manner as in the above embodiment, and the transmission power setting unit 112-1 The transmission power of PUCCH is set based on information input from power scaling control section 109. Subsequent processing (in the case of FIG. 2) is the same as described above, and will be omitted. Further, in the CC in which the SRS is transmitted, the SRS is input to the transmission power setting unit 112-N, and the transmission power of the SRS is set based on the information input from the power scaling control unit 109.
- the UE miss-detection trigger information of the aperiodic SRS newly introduced in LTE-A and notified by the physical channel control channel PDCCH the UE does not transmit the SRS (corresponding CC (resource) Transmission power at 0). That is, the same UE operation can be equivalently performed when power scaling occurs and when UE miss detection occurs. Therefore, in both cases where power scaling occurs and when UE miss detection occurs, in the blind detection process of SRS received power in the eNB, for example, the eNB has a noise level in a section in which the SRS is received.
- the eNB When the eNB can measure only the received SRS level equivalent to the above, the eNB newly instructs the terminal to newly transmit an appropriate transmission power value for the SRS and to perform an instruction to retransmit (trigger) the SRS. It becomes possible to cope with.
- all SRSs of the Scells may be dropped.

- Non-Patent Document 1 when transmitting (periodic / aperiodic) SRS and PUSCH simultaneously, Non-Patent Document 1 has the following problems. That is, when the PUSCH transmission power is reduced (halfway) based on the rule that the power allocation priority of the PUSCH transmission power is lower than the transmission power of the SRS so as to satisfy the maximum transmission power of each UE, the PUSCH When multi-value amplitude modulation such as 16QAM or 64QAM is used for data to be transmitted (or control information), the probability that the eNB cannot correctly receive power-scaled multi-value amplitude modulation increases.
- multi-value amplitude modulation such as 16QAM or 64QAM
- the power scaling increases the probability that the modulation accuracy, EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) of the power-scaled multilevel modulation signal does not satisfy the predetermined condition at the time of transmission.
- EVM Error Vector Magnitude
- multi-value amplitude modulation such as 16QAM puts information on the amplitude (square root of power), but as described above, the eNB basically uses information such as when the power scaling of the terminal has occurred. Since the eNB demodulates and decodes the PUSCH assuming that the power is not scaled, the probability that the eNB cannot be received correctly increases.
- the same effect as the power scaling method 3 can be obtained, and in addition, complicated power allocation control between CCs can be simplified.

- the power scaling method 14 is preferably used as a power scaling method when UCI is multiplexed on the PUSCH, that is, when PUSCH with UCI multiplexing and (periodic / aperiodic) SRS are simultaneously transmitted. Thereby, it is possible to increase the probability that UCI having high importance that is not applied to retransmission can be correctly transmitted to the eNB.
- the priority of SRS may be increased for a PUSCH without UCI multiplexing, that is, a PUSCH without UCI multiplexing to which retransmission is applied. Thereby, the measurement accuracy of SRS can be improved similarly to the said method 3, performing the power allocation process between simple CC.

That is, when simultaneously transmitting multiple periodic SRSs with multiple CCs, the power allocation priority when applying power scaling takes into account the influence of the CC selection method of multiplexing UCI with high importance, to which retransmission is not applied. Not. Since UCI needs to be notified from the terminal to the eNB with low delay, only transmission in one transmission is supported.

- PDCCH which is a physical layer downlink control channel
- the periodic SRS (the transmission cycle, trigger, timer, etc.) is configured by higher layer signaling, and therefore only low speed control can be performed. Therefore, the same effect as described above can be obtained while reflecting the characteristics of this aperiodic SRS (the latest eNB determination regarding CQI measurement using SRS) in the power scaling process.
- FIG. 8 shows that at the same symbol position of the same subframe (for example, the final symbol position of the subframe), the aperiodic SRS is triggered by CC # 0 of Scell, the periodic SRS is triggered by CC # 2 of Scell, and Pcell When nothing is transmitted in CC # 1, the periodic SRS in CC # 2 in Scell is dropped.

- the Scell SRS is dropped. In FIG. 12, this corresponds to the case where the SRS of Scell CC # 2 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value from the maximum transmission power of the Pcell CC # 1 SRS.
- the SRS intermodulation distortion of CCs with large transmission power may be larger than the transmission powers of SRSs of different CCs.
- This intermodulation distortion cannot be removed by the transmission filter. That is, if it transmits as it is in such a case, eNB will measure the communication quality of applicable CC by SRS which received the influence of the intermodulation distortion, and cannot perform correct scheduling and transmission power control. Therefore, when the SRS SRS transmission power is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold from the maximum SRS transmission power, the above problem can be avoided by dropping the Scell SRS.
- the value may be adaptively changed according to a path loss (measurement) value or the like.
- the transmission power of the channel having the maximum transmission power in the simultaneous transmission UL channel may be used as the reference value instead of the transmission power of the SRS having the maximum transmission power of the plurality of SRSs.

- D / A Digital / Analog
- the threshold by introducing a threshold and dropping an SRS having a transmission power equal to or lower than the threshold, useless transmission processing (a complicated design of D / A considering (covering) a low transmission power value) can be avoided. (Useless transmission power consumption can be avoided).
- Power scaling method 9-A power scaling control section 109 drops according to the length of the transmission period of periodic SRS (reducing power allocation priority, reducing transmission power, not transmitting, transmission power Select the SRS of the CC. Specifically, the periodic SRS having a long transmission cycle is selected as the SRS of the CC to be preferentially dropped, or the periodic SRS having the short transmission cycle is selected as the SRS of the CC to be preferentially dropped.
- adaptive modulation / demodulation AMC: Adaptive Modulation and Channel Coding
- time-frequency domain scheduling can be controlled with high accuracy, and UE specific throughput and system throughput due to multiuser diversity can be improved.
- Power scaling method 10-A the power scaling control unit 109 performs drop according to the bandwidth of the SRS (reducing power allocation priority, reducing transmission power, not transmitting, and setting transmission power to zero) ) Select CC SRS. Specifically, SRS having a wide bandwidth is preferentially dropped over SRS having a narrow bandwidth, or SRS having a narrow bandwidth is preferentially dropped over SRS having a wide bandwidth.
- the transmission power of the LTE-A (LTE) UL channel is determined by the transmission bandwidth and power spectrum density (PSD). Therefore, the number of dropped SRSs can be reduced as much as possible by lowering the transmission power allocation priority of the wide bandwidth SRS that has a large influence on the total transmission power. For example, when the SRS bandwidth of 1 CC is B under the condition that the SRS total bandwidth of multiple CCs is B, and the case where the SRS bandwidth of each CC is 2/2 in 2 CCs, If the SRS bandwidth drops B preferentially, the number of dropped CCs can be reduced.
- LTE LTE-A
- PDD power spectrum density
- a threshold value may be introduced in the bandwidth determination, and the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped when the bandwidth between SRSs or a difference between them exceeds the threshold value.
- the SRS power allocation priority of the corresponding CC may be lowered as the ratio between the bandwidth for each CC and the SRS bandwidth (for example, SRS bandwidth / bandwidth for each CC) increases.
- a threshold value may be introduced in the bandwidth determination, and the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped when the bandwidth between SRSs or a difference between them exceeds the threshold value.
- the SRS power allocation priority of the corresponding CC may be lowered as the ratio between the bandwidth for each CC and the SRS bandwidth (for example, SRS bandwidth / bandwidth for each CC) is smaller.
- the power scaling control unit 109 controls the control information (UL or DL grant) included in the control channel PDCCH of the physical layer among the SRSs of the plurality of Scells, Alternatively, the SRS power allocation priority of the CC for which the UCI (CQI, PMI, etc.) report is triggered by the control information notified by the higher layer signaling is increased. For example, the SRS power allocation priority of the CC where the UCI report such as aperiodic CSI is triggered is increased.
- Scell used for periodic CQI (PMI) reporting indicated by eNB to higher layer signaling such as RRC (Radio Resource Control)
- PMI periodic CQI
- RRC Radio Resource Control
- the SRS power allocation priority of the Cell (CC) having a high priority instructed from the eNB is increased.
- the power scaling control unit 109 is notified (or is notified by control information (UL or DL grant) included in the control channel PDCCH of the physical layer or signaling of an upper layer) ) USI (CQI, PMI, etc.) report is not triggered by control information (not done)
- SRS power allocation priority of CC is lowered (preferentially dropped, transmission power is reduced, transmission is stopped, or transmission power is Set to zero).
- the SRS power allocation priority of a CC in which UCI reporting such as aperiodic CSI is not triggered (not done) by the UL grant is lowered.
- SRS of CC set to Scell with lower priority Lower power allocation priority.
- the Cell (CC) instructed by the eNB not to transmit UCI with PUSCH (multiplexed UCI on PUSCH), or Cell (CC) that transmits UCI with PUSCH (multiplexed UCI on PUSCH)
- the SRS power allocation priority of the Cell (CC) having a low priority instructed to the eNB is lowered.
- CC CC
- PMI periodic CQI
- eNB higher layer signaling
- RRC higher layer signaling
- the probability of transmitting (for example, aperiodic) SRS is high. This is because if the power allocation priority of the SRS transmitted in that CC (aperiodic) is lowered (or dropped), MCS selection and transmission power control for UCI transmitted in the subsequent subframe are not performed correctly. Because.
- FIG. 14 shows an outline of the power scaling method 11-A.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in SCC 2CC (CC # 0, CC # 2), and CC # 0 is Scell by the control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling such as RRC).
- CC # 1 is set to Pcell
- CC # 2 is set to Scell.
- UCI such as aperiodic CSI is used in UL grant in 2Scells of 2SRS.
- UCI is triggered in the past subframe
- CC # 0 shows a case where UCI is not triggered.
- the triggered Scell may retain its priority for a predetermined period. Further, the priority may be maintained until UCI is newly triggered by another CC. Further, when there are a plurality of Scells triggered by UCI, SRS power scaling may be performed according to the latest trigger information. Moreover, when there are a plurality of Scells in which UCI is triggered and they are triggered at the same time, the power scaling priority may be determined according to the UL CC ID number (ascending order / descending order).
- the priority order information of CCs that transmit UCI among a plurality of Scells notified (instructed) by higher layer signaling may be retained for a certain predetermined period (the power according to the information for a certain predetermined period) Scaling may be performed). Further, the priority may be maintained until the above-described priority order is newly notified (instructed) by the eNB depending on higher layer signaling. If a new priority order is notified (instructed), power scaling may be performed according to the new priority order.
- the SRS power allocation of CC based on the priority of Scell used for periodic CQI (PMI) report, etc. indicated by higher layer signaling such as RRC (Radio Resource Control) from eNB A priority may be set. For example, in a cell (CC) instructed by an eNB to transmit UCI with PUSCH in a plurality of Scells, or in a cell (CC) in which UCI is transmitted with PUSCH in a plurality of Scells, the eNB is instructed. The SRS power allocation priority of the Cell (CC) having a higher priority is increased.
- a cell (CC) instructed by an eNB not to transmit UCI together with PUSCH or in a plurality of Scells, instructed to eNB in a cell (CC) transmitting UCI together with PUSCH.
- the SRS power allocation priority of the lower priority Cell (CC) is lowered.
- SRS transmission power (PSD) of Scell with the highest priority is set. In the power scaling process, it may be held (it is not necessary to change).
- the eNB can provide appropriate transmission power (MCS) used for UCI transmission to the terminal. You can be notified.
- MCS transmission power
- Scells with lower priority may be selected as SRS to be dropped.
- eNB in eNB (not shown), periodic CQI among multiple Scells using Scell and Pcell information set in each terminal, uplink interference status for each CC (Cell), and the like.
- PMI Determination of priority for each terminal of Scell used for reporting, etc., selection of cell (CC) for each terminal that transmits UCI together with PUSCH (multiple UCI on PUSCH) among multiple Scells, etc. I do.
- information such as the determined priority order and the selected priority order is notified to the terminal using higher layer (RCC) signaling.
- the terminal that has received the information uses the information for power scaling when simultaneous transmission of multiple UL channels (such as SRS) occurs.
- the power scaling control unit 109 preferentially drops the SRS having the lower PSD than the SRS having the higher PSD (reducing the power allocation priority, reducing the transmission power, not transmitting, Set transmit power to zero).
- the SRS intermodulation distortion of CCs with large PSDs may be larger than the SRS PSDs of different CCs.
- This intermodulation distortion cannot be removed by the transmission filter. That is, if it transmits as it is in such a case, eNB will measure the communication quality of applicable CC by SRS which received the influence of the intermodulation distortion, and cannot perform correct scheduling and transmission power control. In response to this problem, the corresponding CC can be accurately measured by transmitting only the SRS having a high PSD that is not easily affected by the intermodulation distortion.
- FIG. 15 shows an outline of the power scaling method 12-A.
- SRS is simultaneously transmitted in 2CC (CC # 0, CC # 1) of Scell, and CC # 0 is Scell, CC # by a control signal notified from the base station (by higher layer signaling). 1 is set to Scell.
- harmonic distortion intermodulation distortion
- SRS having a low PSD that is susceptible to intermodulation distortion is dropped.
- the SRS may be based on (PUSCH, SRS) transmission power control parameters related to calculating the PSD value. For example, these values such as TPC command accumulated value, transport block size, offset parameter (TF) related to MCS level, SRS offset value for transmission power of PUSCH, number of bits per RE (TB size / assigned RE number), etc. Since the SRS becomes higher as the SRS becomes higher, the SRS to be dropped may be selected based on these values. Also, the smaller the number of allocated REs (Resource Elements) or the number of allocated subcarriers, the higher the SRS with the PSD. Therefore, the SRS to be dropped may be selected based on these values.
- threshold values may be introduced for the PSD and each of the above parameters, and when those values exceed the threshold values, the corresponding SRS may be preferentially dropped.
- the second embodiment when a plurality of SRSs are simultaneously transmitted using Pcell and Scell, power allocation priority is given by performing transmission power allocation in preference to Pcell SRS over Scell SRS. It is possible to reduce the probability that a low SRS CC becomes the same CC as a CC that multiplexes UCI. Therefore, the propagation channel quality information of Pcell with a high probability of UCI being multiplexed can be estimated with high accuracy by SRS having a high power allocation priority, and the eNB can appropriately transmit to the UL channel transmitting the subsequent UCI. Power can be commanded.
- the method described on the assumption that the above-described multiple Scells are applied to multiple SRSs can be similarly applied when multiple SRSs exist in Pcells and multiple SRSs exist in multiple Pcells.
- the transmission power is reduced by using the scaling weight for SRS notified from the eNB to the terminal (through higher layer signaling). May be.
- w_Pcell_SRS is a scaling weight applied to the Pcell SRS
- w_Scell_SRS is a scaling weight applied to the Scell SRS
- w_Pcell_SRS> w_Scell_SRS may be set (defined).
- w_Scell_SRS 0 may be set.
- power scaling can also be performed when multiple uplink channels are simultaneously transmitted by multiple cells or multiple CCs.
- An example (power scaling method 16-A) in the case where power scaling methods 3 (3-A) and 12 (12-A) described in the first embodiment (2) are combined will be described below.
- Power scaling method 16-A the power scaling control unit 109 uses the PUSCH transport block (TB) size included in the UL grant notified from the eNB to the terminal when there are multiple SRSs in the multiple Scells.
- the power priority of SRS is determined based on the magnitude of.
- the priority of the SRS transmission power of the CC (Cell) in which the PUSCH to which the TB having a large TB size is mapped is transmitted is increased.
- the priority of SRS transmission power of CC (Cell) in which PUSCH to which TB having a small TB size is mapped is transmitted is lowered.
- the SRS transmission power of the CC (Cell) in which the PUSCH having the largest TB size is transmitted may be retained (not changed), and the SRS transmission power of other Scell (CC) may be reduced.
- the power priority of the SRS set according to the power scaling method 16-A may hold the priority for a predetermined period. Moreover, you may maintain the priority between several Scells until the combination of several TB size which newly differs between several Scells is transmitted.
- the SRS power priority set by the power scaling method 16-A may be SRS power scaled according to the latest priority.

図2は、本発明の実施の形態1に係る無線通信端末装置(以下、「端末」という)100の構成を示すブロック図である。以下、図2を用いて端末100の構成について説明する。
電力スケーリング方法1では、まず、送信電力計算部107において、複数CCの複数ULチャネルの送信電力を計算する。
電力スケーリング方法2では、電力スケーリング制御部109において、PcellのSRSの送信電力を、CC個別の(各ULチャネルに対する)最大送信電力以下に設定し(CC個別な最大送信電力の条件は満たしつつ)、PcellのSRSの送信電力は保持し(変化させず)、Scellの送信電力を低減することにより、電力スケーリングを行う。
電力スケーリング方法3では、電力スケーリング制御部109において、PcellのSRSの送信電力は保持し(変化させず)、ScellのSRSをドロップする(送信しない、または送信電力=0に設定する)ことにより、電力スケーリングを行う。
電力スケーリング方法4では、ScellのSRSが複数ある場合において、電力スケーリング制御部109は、(PcellのSRSの送信電力は保持し(変化させず))送信電力が小さい(又は最小の)ScellのSRS送信電力から順番に、送信電力を低減(ドロップ、送信電力=0設定(送信しない))する。
電力スケーリング方法5では、ScellのSRSが複数ある場合において、電力スケーリング制御部109は、(PcellのSRSの送信電力は保持し(変化させず))Scellの複数SRS送信電力を一様に低減(同一の送信電力値の低減、同一のスケーリング(ウェイト)を適用)する。
電力スケーリング方法6では、ScellのSRSが複数ある場合において、電力スケーリング制御部109は、Scellの全SRS(ScellのSRSを一律に)ドロップする(送信しない、または送信電力=0に設定)。
電力スケーリング方法7では、電力スケーリング制御部109は、複数SRSの中で最大送信電力を有するSRSの送信電力から、ScellのSRS送信電力が所定の閾値以上の場合に、ScellのSRSの送信電力を低減又はドロップする(送信しない、または送信電力=0に設定)。
電力スケーリング方法8では、電力スケーリング制御部109は、ScellのSRS送信電力がある閾値以下の場合に、ScellのSRSの送信電力を低減又はドロップする(送信しない、または送信電力=0に設定)。
電力スケーリング方法9では、電力スケーリング制御部109は、ピリオディックSRSの送信周期の長さに応じて、ドロップする(電力割当優先度を低くする、送信電力を低減する、送信しない、送信電力をゼロに設定する)CCのSRSを選択する。具体的には、送信周期が長いピリオディックSRSを優先的にドロップするCCのSRSとして選択するか、または、送信周期が短いピリオディックSRSを優先的にドロップするCCのSRSとして選択する。
電力スケーリング方法10では、電力スケーリング制御部109は、SRSの帯域幅に応じて、ドロップする(電力割当優先度を低くする、送信電力を低減する、送信しない、送信電力をゼロに設定する)CCのSRSを選択する。具体的には、狭い帯域幅を有するSRSより、広い帯域幅を有するSRSを優先的にドロップするか、または、広い帯域幅を有するSRSより、狭い帯域幅を有するSRSを優先的にドロップする。
電力スケーリング方法11では、ScellのSRSが複数ある場合において、電力スケーリング制御部109は、複数ScellのSRSの中で、物理層の制御チャネルPDCCHに含まれる制御情報(UL又はDLグラント)、または、上位層のシグナリングで通知された(される)制御情報でUCIがトリガーされた(される)CCのSRS電力割当優先度を高くする。例えば、アペリオディックCSI等のUCIがトリガーされた、CCのSRS電力割当優先度を高くする。反対に、ScellのSRSが複数ある場合において、電力スケーリング制御部109は、物理層の制御チャネルPDCCHに含まれる制御情報(UL又はDLグラント)、または、上位層のシグナリングで通知された(される)制御情報でUCIがトリガーされない(されていない)CCのSRS電力割当優先度を低くする(優先的にドロップする、送信電力を低減する、送信停止、または送信電力をゼロに設定する)。例えば、ULグラントでアペリオディックCSI等のUCIがトリガーされない(されていない)CCのSRS電力割当優先度を低くする。
電力スケーリング方法12では、電力スケーリング制御部109は、高いPSDを有するSRSより、低いPSDのSRSを優先的にドロップする(電力割当優先度を低くする、送信電力を低減する、送信しない、送信電力をゼロに設定する)。
電力スケーリング方法13では、(ピリオディック/アペリオディック)SRSとPUCCHを同時送信する場合、Rel.8 LTEにおいて、20MHz等の帯域を有する1CCだけでの運用である。1CC内でのSRSとPUCCHの同時送信時には、送信信号のPAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)の増加(マルチキャリア送信)を避けるため、PUCCHに対しては、レートマッチングにより1サブフレームの最終SC-FDMAシンボルを送信しないshorten formatのPUCCHが用いられ、1サブフレームの最終SC-FDMAシンボルでは、ピリオディックSRSだけが送信される(図16参照)。
PUCCH>SRS>PUSCH
電力スケーリング方法14では、(ピリオディック/アペリオディック)SRSとPUSCHを同時送信する場合、Rel.8 LTEにおいて、20MHz等の帯域を有する1CCだけでの運用であるため、1CC内でのSRSとPUSCHの同時送信時には、送信信号のPAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)の増加(マルチキャリア送信)を避けるため、PUSCHに対しては、レートマッチング(パンクチャリング)により1サブフレームの最終SC-FDMAシンボルを送信しないPUSCHが用いられ、1サブフレームの最終SC-FDMAシンボルでは、ピリオディックSRSだけが送信される(図19参照)。
PUCCH>SRS>PUSCH
PUSCHにUCIを多重しない場合においては、電力スケーリング方法14とは反対に、(ピリオディック/アペリオディック)SRSとPUSCHを同時送信する場合の電力スケーリング方法15として、電力スケーリング制御部109において、SRSの送信電力は保持し(変化させず)、PUSCHの送信電力をドロップする(送信しない、または送信電力=0に設定する)ことにより、電力スケーリングを行ってもよい。UCI多重なしのPUSCH、つまり、再送が適用されるUCI多重なしのPUSCHに対しては、SRSの優先度を高めてもよい。これにより、シンプルなCC間での電力割当処理を行いつつ、上記方法3と同様にSRSの測定精度を高められる。
実施の形態1では、複数アップリンクチャネル(SRS、PUSCH、PUCCH等)を同時送信する場合において、複数CC(cell)で送信される複数アップリンクチャネルの送信電力合計値がUE固有の最大送信電力を超えた場合の電力スケーリング方法を述べた。しかしながら、実施の形態1に記載の全ての電力スケーリング方法は、複数CC(cell)で送信される複数アップリンクチャネルの送信電力合計値がUE固有の最大送信電力を超えない場合、かつ、複数cell(例えば、Pcell及び複数Scell)、又は、複数CC(例えば、PCC及び複数SCC)での複数アップリンクチャネル同時送信(SRSの同時送信、SRSとPUSCHの同時送信、SRSとPUCCHの同時送信など)が発生した場合にも用いることができる。

電力スケーリング方法12-Aでは、電力スケーリング制御部109は、高いPSDを有するSRSより、低いPSDのSRSを優先的にドロップする(電力割当優先度を低くする、送信電力を低減する、送信しない、送信電力をゼロに設定する)。
実施の形態1及び実施の形態2に記載の各電力スケーリング方法を組み合わせることにより、複数CC(cell)で送信される複数アップリンクチャネルの送信電力合計値がUE固有の最大送信電力を超えない場合、かつ、複数cell、又は、複数CCでの複数アップリンクチャネル同時送信が発生した場合における、電力スケーリングを行うこともできる。以下に、実施の形態1(2)に記載の電力スケーリング方法3(3-A)及び12(12-A)を組み合わせた場合の一例(電力スケーリング方法16-A)を示す。
