All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It is to be noted that a and/or B appearing in the following description includes three meanings, 1, a; 2. b; 3. a and B.
In practice, the V2X terminals of embodiments of the present invention include some or all of the following:
a V2X terminal (PC 5V2X transmission terminal for short) which is a transmission side and is in a PC5V2X communication system;
a V2X terminal (PC 5V2X receiving terminal for short) which is a receiving side and is in the PC5V2X communication system;
a V2X terminal (Uu V2X transmission terminal for short) on the transmission side in the Uu V2X communication scheme;
a V2X terminal (Uu V2X reception terminal) on the reception side is in the Uu V2X communication scheme.
Optionally, for the case of moving into or being located in the Uu V2X area all the time, the V2X terminal performing communication mode switching is a PC5V2X transmitting terminal;
for the case of moving out of the Uu V2X area or being located in the non-Uu V2X area all the time, the V2X terminal performing the communication scheme switching may be a transmission terminal of Uu V2X or a transmission terminal using Uu V2X and PC5V2X at the same time.
As shown in fig. 2A, the system for converting a communication scheme according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: a network side device 10 and a V2X terminal 20.
A network side device 10 for determining a target area using a target communication method in V2X communication; generating communication mode switching information according to the determined target area; sending the communication mode switching information to the V2X terminal; wherein, the target communication mode is a Uu V2X communication mode and/or a PC5V2X communication mode.
The V2X terminal 20 is configured to receive the communication scheme switching information sent by the network side device, and perform communication scheme switching according to the received communication scheme switching information.
The network side device according to the embodiment of the present invention may determine the target area using the target communication method in V2X communication according to part or all of the following methods:
the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to auxiliary information reported by the V2X terminal and/or sent by other network side equipment;
the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to configuration information of OAM (operation and Maintenance) equipment;
and thirdly, the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to local configuration information (such as map information).
The following are described separately.
And in the first mode, the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to auxiliary information reported by the V2X terminal and/or sent by other network side equipment.
If the first mode needs to be executed, the network side device may further notify the V2X terminal of the configuration information before determining the target area using the target communication mode in the V2X communication according to the auxiliary information reported by the V2X terminal;
correspondingly, after receiving the configuration information for reporting the auxiliary information, which is issued by the network side device, the V2X terminal reports the auxiliary information according to the configuration information for reporting the auxiliary information.
The configuration information for reporting the auxiliary information may be a reporting period of the auxiliary information and/or a triggering event of reporting the auxiliary information.
If the configuration information for reporting the auxiliary information includes an auxiliary information reporting period, the V2X terminal reports the auxiliary information to the network side device after the auxiliary information reporting period arrives.
And the reporting period of the auxiliary information is a time period and/or a distance period.
Specifically, the auxiliary information may be a period of a time dimension, such as recording the auxiliary information once every several times (e.g., 1 second); it may also be a period of spatial dimension, for example, when the V2X terminal moves a certain distance (for example, 1 meter) to trigger one-time recording of the auxiliary information.
The trigger event for reporting the auxiliary information comprises part or all of the following events:
if the V2X message is sent and/or received for N times, triggering auxiliary information to report;
and if the distance from the V2X terminal to the position where the auxiliary information is reported last time exceeds M meters, triggering the auxiliary information to report.
For example, if the PC5V2X sends and/or receives a message N times (N > ═ 1), the reporting of the auxiliary information is triggered; or the distance from the terminal V2X to the last reporting position exceeds M meters (M > -1), triggering the auxiliary information reporting.
The V2X terminal needs to record the auxiliary information before reporting the auxiliary information.
Optionally, the V2X terminal records the auxiliary information after the recording period arrives; and/or
And the V2X terminal records the auxiliary information after meeting the recording event.
The recording period is a time period and/or a distance period;
the specific recording period may be a period of a time dimension, such as recording the auxiliary information once every several times (e.g. 1 second); it may also be a period of the spatial dimension, such as the UE moving a few distances (e.g. 1 meter) triggering one secondary information recording.
The recording event comprises part or all of the following events:
the V2X terminal records the auxiliary information each time it transmits or receives;
when the V2X terminal transmits twice or receives twice or transmits once, the auxiliary information is recorded when the terminal position interval exceeds X meters, and X is a positive number.
The V2X terminal is a transmitting terminal, and the auxiliary information includes, but is not limited to, some or all of the following information:
the PC5V2X sending identification, the time of sending the PC5V2X message and the position information when the message is sent;
the V2X terminal is a receiving terminal, and the auxiliary information includes but is not limited to some or all of the following information:
PC5V2X reception identity, time of reception of PC5V2X message by the reception terminal, location information of the reception terminal corresponding to the time of reception of PC5V2X message by the reception terminal, transmission terminal identity contained in received PC5V2X corresponding to the time of reception of PC5V2X message by the reception terminal, designated time, location information of the reception terminal at designated time, indication information of whether the reception terminal received PC5V2X message at designated time, and transmission terminal identity of PC5V2X message received by the reception terminal at designated time.
The position information may be GPS (Global Positioning system) coordinates and/or a target area number.
In implementation, after a period of time for reporting the auxiliary information, if the base station can determine the target area more accurately, the base station may notify the V2X terminal to stop reporting the auxiliary information through broadcasting or dedicated signaling. When necessary, the terminal is notified to start the auxiliary information reporting again through broadcasting or dedicated signaling (for example, the base station verifies whether the target area determined before needs to be modified once every several times).
Since the auxiliary information does not need to be reported all the time, the network side device may notify the V2X terminal to start the function of reporting the auxiliary information through broadcasting or a dedicated signaling after the V2X terminal needs to report the auxiliary information;
after the V2X terminal is not required to report the auxiliary information, the V2X terminal is informed to close the function of reporting the auxiliary information through broadcasting or special signaling;
correspondingly, after receiving the opening notification, the V2X terminal opens the function of reporting auxiliary information, and reports auxiliary information according to the configured reporting condition;
and after receiving the closing notification, the V2X terminal closes the auxiliary information reporting function and notifies the reporting of auxiliary information.
Optionally, if the auxiliary information received by the network side device includes information related to other cells, the network side device may further send the auxiliary information to the related cells.
Specifically, for a cell managed by the network side device, after receiving auxiliary information reported by the V2X terminal and/or sent by other network side devices, the network side device sends all contents of the auxiliary information to the corresponding other cells if the auxiliary information includes other cells; or
For a cell managed by the network side device, after receiving auxiliary information reported by the V2X terminal and/or sent by other network side devices, if the auxiliary information includes other cells and neighboring cells corresponding to the other cells, the network side device sends all contents of the auxiliary information or contents related to the other cells and the neighboring cells corresponding to the other cells to the corresponding other cells;
and the adjacent cell corresponding to the other cell is a cell which can be covered by the coverage range of the PC5 signal of the V2X terminal belonging to the other cell.
In the following, the target communication method is Uu V2X communication method, and the V2X terminal that reports the auxiliary information may include PC5V2X transmitting terminal and PC5V2X receiving terminal.
If the PC5V2X receiving terminal is located at the edge of the cell, after the serving base station of the PC5V2X receiving terminal receives the auxiliary information reported by the PC5V2X receiving terminal, it is further necessary to interact the auxiliary information reported by the PC5V2X receiving terminal with the base station adjacent to the PC5V2X receiving terminal of the reported auxiliary information through the inter-base station interface.
The base station integrates the auxiliary information reported by the PC5V2X sending terminal and the PC5V2X receiving terminal to determine the target area needing to use UuV2X communication mode. The method for specifically determining the area needing to use Uu V2X belongs to the realization of a base station algorithm, and can be realized in various ways, which cannot be listed one by one. Only one possible example of an algorithm is given here:
the base station determines the time and the position of the PC5V2X sending terminal sending PC5V2X message according to the auxiliary information reported by the PC5V2X sending terminal, and determines the V2X receiving terminal in the coverage radius range of the PC5V2X by combining the map information and the coverage radius of the PC5V 2X.
Then, according to the auxiliary information reported by the V2X receiving terminal, it is determined that if there is a PC5V2X receiving terminal at the time when the PC5V2X sending terminal sends the PC5V2X message in a certain direction, but all or most of the PC5V2X terminals in the direction cannot receive the PC5V2X message sent by the PC5V2X sending terminal, the region is a target region that needs to use Uu V2X.
Further description is made by taking fig. 2B as an example. In fig. 2B, PC5V2X receiving terminal 1, PC5V2X receiving terminal 2 and PC5V2X receiving terminal 3 are all located in the coverage area of PC5V2X transmitting terminal 1 and PC5V2X transmitting terminal 2, but PC5V2X receiving terminal 3 can receive PC5V2X signals sent by PC5V2X transmitting terminal 1 and PC5V2X transmitting terminal 2, but PC5V2X receiving terminal 1 and PC5V2X receiving terminal 2 do not receive, so that the area where PC5V2X transmitting terminal 1 and PC5V2X transmitting terminal 2 are located can be determined as the target area where Uu V2X needs to be used.
And secondly, the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to the configuration information of the OAM equipment.
In implementation, the OAM equipment is responsible for updating and maintaining the information of the target area that needs to use Uu V2X, and the base station is notified in time once there is an update;
accordingly, the base station determines a target area requiring use of Uu V2X according to the information notified by the OAM equipment.
And thirdly, the network side equipment determines a target area using a target communication mode in V2X communication according to local configuration information (such as map information).
The base station determines a target area requiring use of Uu V2X based on preconfigured information, such as map information.
The specific algorithm depends on the implementation of the base station, for example, the base station can determine that several meters of square circles of the crossroads or T-junctions are target areas needing to use Uu V2X; the area with more buildings can be used as a target area needing to use Uu V2X.
Optionally, the network side device may generate communication mode switching information according to the area information of the target area; or
The network side device may determine a communication method in the V2X communication of the V2X terminal according to the position of the V2X terminal and the determined target area, and generate communication method switching information according to the determined communication method.
In implementation, the network side device generates communication mode switching information according to the area information of the target area, and the area information can be used as the communication mode switching information or be a part of the communication mode switching information;
the network side device generates the communication method switching information according to the determined communication method, and the communication method can be used as the communication method switching information or can be used as a part of the communication method switching information.
When the network side device transmits the communication method switching information, the communication method switching information may be transmitted in any message that can be received by the V2X terminal.
The following describes the processing modes of different area information.
Firstly, the area information of the area is used as communication mode switching information.
In this manner, the area information is any information that can determine an area.
And the network side equipment sends the communication mode switching information to the V2X terminal through broadcasting or special signaling.
Dedicated signaling includes, but is not limited to, some or all of the following:
RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling, MAC (Medium access Control) signaling, and physical layer signaling.
If the target communication mode is Uu V2X communication mode, after the V2X terminal receives the broadcast message:
the V2X terminal judges that the terminal is located in or enters a target area needing to use Uu V2X, and then the PC5V2X is switched to UuV 2X;
if the terminal judges that it is not located in or has moved out of the target area where Uu V2X needs to be used, Uu V2X is switched to PC5V 2X.
If the target communication mode is Uu V2X communication mode and PC5V2X communication mode, after the V2X terminal receives the broadcast message:
the V2X terminal judges that the terminal is located in or enters a target area needing to use Uu V2X, and then uses the PC5V2X and Uu V2X at the same time;
if the V2X terminal determines that it is not located in or has moved out of the target area where use of Uu V2X is desired, then PC5V2X is used only.
Second, the communication mode is used as communication mode switching information
In this way, the network side device sends the communication mode switching information to the V2X terminal through dedicated signaling.
Dedicated signaling includes, but is not limited to, some or all of the following:
RRC signaling, MAC signaling, physical layer signaling.
In implementation, the base station locates the V2X terminals, determines that V2X terminals within the target area of Uu V2X need to be used, and notifies these V2X terminals to perform handover through dedicated signaling.
If the target communication mode is Uu V2X communication mode, the V2X terminal notification process is as follows:
if the V2X terminal is located in the determined target area or enters the determined target area, the base station informs the V2X communication mode of the V2X terminal to be a Uu V2X communication mode;
and if the V2X terminal is not located in the determined target area or moves out of the determined target area, the base station informs the V2X communication mode of the V2X terminal to be a PC5V2X communication mode.
If the target communication mode is Uu V2X communication mode and PC5V2X communication mode, the V2X terminal notification process is as follows:
if the V2X terminal is located in the determined target area or enters the determined target area, the base station informs the V2X communication mode of the V2X terminal to be a Uu V2X communication mode and a PC5V2X communication mode;
and if the V2X terminal is not located in the determined target area or moves out of the determined target area, the base station informs the V2X terminal that the communication mode in the V2X communication is the PC5V 2X.
The network side device in the embodiment of the present invention may be a base station (such as a macro base station, a home base station, etc.), an RN (relay) device, or another network side device.
