Abstract

A data transmission method and a data transmission device are provided. The data transmission method includes steps of: determining, by a transmitting end, a first precoding matrix and a second precoding matrix, the first precoding matrix being selected from a predefined first codebook, the second precoding matrix being acquired on the basis of CSI; performing, by the transmitting end, precoding processing on a data stream in accordance with the first precoding matrix and the second precoding matrix; and transmitting, by the transmitting end, the data streamed acquired after the precoding processing to a receiving end.

Claims (30)

1. A data transmission method, comprising:

determining, by a transmitting end, a first precoding matrix and a second precoding matrix, the first precoding matrix being selected from a predefined first code book, the second precoding matrix being acquired on the basis of Channel State information (CSI);

performing, by the transmitting end, precoding processing on a data stream in accordance with the first precoding matrix and the second precoding matrix;

performing, by the transmitting end, precoding processing on a pilot signal in accordance with the second precoding matrix; and

transmitting, by the transmitting end, the data stream and the pilot signal acquired after the precoding processing to a receiving end,

wherein the transmitting end is a base station and the receiving end is a UE,

wherein the step of determining, by the transmitting end, the first precoding matrix comprises:

determining, by the transmitting end, dimensions of the first precoding matrix in accordance with a quantity of the data streams;

selecting, by the transmitting end, a first code book which comprises precoding matrices each having dimensions same to the dimensions of the first precoding matrix; and

with respect to each Resource Element (RE), selecting, by the transmitting end, one precoding matrix from the selected first code book as the first precoding matrix for the RE.

2. The data transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the performing, by the transmitting end, the precoding processing on the data stream in accordance with the first precoding matrix and the second precoding matrix comprises:

performing, by the transmitting end, first-level precoding processing on the data stream in accordance with the first precoding matrix, and performing second-level precoding processing on the data stream acquired after the first-level precoding processing in accordance with the second precoding matrix; or

determining, by the transmitting end, a third precoding matrix in accordance with the first precoding matrix and the second precoding matrix, and performing the precoding processing on the data stream in accordance with the third precoding matrix.

3. The data transmission method according to claim 1 , further comprising transmitting, by the transmitting end, a control signaling to the receiving end, wherein the control signaling comprises a quantity of ports for the pilot signal and/or a quantity of the data streams.

4. The data transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining, by the transmitting end, the dimensions of the first precoding matrix in accordance with the quantity of the data streams comprises:

determining, by the transmitting end, a quantity of columns of the first precoding matrix as the quantity of the data streams; and

determining, by the transmitting end, a quantity of rows of the first precoding matrix in accordance with a predetermined mapping relationship between the quantity of the data streams and the quantity of rows of the first precoding matrix.

5. The data transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the selecting, by the transmitting end, one precoding matrix from the selected first code book as the first precoding matrix for the RE comprises:

selecting, by the transmitting end, one precoding matrix from the selected first code book as the first precoding matrix in accordance with a serial number of the RE or a serial number of a Resource Block (RB) to which the RE belongs; or

selecting, by the transmitting end, one precoding matrix from the selected first code book as the first precoding matrix in accordance with a serial number of a data symbol vector comprised in the data stream transmitted on the RE.

6. The data transmission method according to claim 4 , wherein for the mapping relationship between the quantity of the data streams and the quantity of the rows of the first precoding matrix, when the quantity of the data streams is 1, the quantity of the rows of the first precoding matrix is 1, and when the quantity of the data streams is greater than 1, the quantity of the rows of the first precoding matrix is a minimum even number greater than or equal to the quantity of the data streams or a minimum value of a power of 2 greater than or equal to the quantity of the data streams.

7. The data transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining, by the transmitting end, the second precoding matrix comprises:

performing, by the transmitting end, channel estimation in accordance with a signal from the receiving end to acquire a channel matrix, and determining the second precoding matrix in accordance with the channel matrix; or

upon the receipt of the CSI reported by the receiving end, determining, by the transmitting end, the second precoding matrix in accordance with the CSI, the CSI being acquired by the receiving end after measuring a channel from the transmitting end to the receiving end.

8. A data transmission device, comprising a transceiver and at least one processor connected to the transceiver, wherein the processor is configured to read a program stored in a memory, so as to: determine a first precoding matrix and a second precoding matrix, the first precoding matrix being selected from a predefined first code book, the second precoding matrix being acquired on the basis of Channel State Information (CSI); perform precoding processing on a data stream in accordance with the first precoding matrix and the second precoding matrix; perform precoding processing on a pilot signal in accordance with the second precoding matrix; and transmit through the transceiver the data stream acquired after the precoding processing to a receiving end,

wherein the data transmission device is a base station and the receiving end is a UE,

wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine dimensions of the first precoding matrix in accordance with a quantity of the data streams;

select a first code book which comprises precoding matrices each having dimensions same to the dimensions of the first precoding matrix; and

with respect to each Resource Element (RE), select one precoding matrix from the selected first code book as the first precoding matrix for the RE.
