Description

Communication method and device

This application claims the priority of a Chinese patent application filed with the State Intellectual Property Office on June 27, 2019, the application number is 201910564407.X, and the invention title is "a communication method and device", the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference Applying.

Technical field

The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a communication method and device.

Background technique

Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication, vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communication, and vehicle-to-infrastructure/network (Vehicle to Infrastructure/Network, V2I/N) communication can be collectively referred to as V2X (vehicle to everything, V2X), that is, the car communicates with everything. In V2X, side link (SideLink, SL) technology is introduced, that is, the terminal and the terminal can communicate directly without being forwarded by the base station.

V2X side link communication includes two communication modes: the first communication mode is V2X direct communication based on base station scheduling. V2X terminals send V2X communication control messages and data on the scheduled time-frequency resources according to the scheduling information of the base station; The second communication mode is that the V2X terminal independently selects the time-frequency resource used for communication among the available time-frequency resources included in the V2X communication resource pool, and sends control messages and data on the selected time-frequency resource. In the first communication mode, the base station centrally allocates resources according to the report of the buffer status (BSR) of the terminal. In the second communication mode, there is no network equipment for unified resource management. V2X terminals can only select communication resources for V2X communication by themselves, which may easily cause collisions of resources selected by V2X terminals.

In the mode where the V2X terminal selects resources by itself, the V2X terminal can send indication information in advance to indicate the reserved time-frequency resources, and other V2X terminals can monitor the indication information to avoid selecting the same resource, thereby reducing the probability of data transmission collisions. However, when the method of sending reservation indication information is adopted, the transmission resources occupied by different V2X terminals may still collide, which affects the transmission efficiency of indication information and service data.

Summary of the invention

Based on this solution, since the first time-frequency resource used to send the first data packet is the time-frequency resource not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] Therefore, collisions between the first time-frequency resource for sending the first data packet by the first terminal device and the second time-frequency resource for sending the second data packet by the second terminal device can be avoided, thereby improving the reliability of service transmission.

To be precise, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to present related concepts in a specific manner.

The embodiment of the present application provides a communication method, which can be applied to the V2X communication scenario shown in FIG. 1. As shown in Figure 1, the first terminal device and the second terminal device communicate via sidelink (Sidelink, SL). In addition to the secondary link, the V2X network also has an uplink (uplink) and a downlink ( downlink).

Exemplarily, V2X communication includes vehicle-to-vehicle communication (Vehicle-to-Vehicle, V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure communication (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure, V2I), vehicle-to-people communication (Vehicle to People, V2P), And the communication between the vehicle and the application server (Vehicle-to-Network, V2N), etc. FIG. 1 only takes V2V communication in which both the first terminal device and the second terminal device are vehicles as an example for illustration, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific communication scenario of V2X. For example, the first terminal device and the second terminal device may communicate with each other between the vehicle-mounted equipment and the vehicle-mounted equipment, or may be the communication between the road side unit (RSU) and the vehicle-mounted equipment and/or network equipment (such as base station equipment). It can also be communication between network equipment (such as base station equipment) and vehicle-mounted equipment and/or RSU. The network equipment (which can be LTE base station equipment or NR base station equipment or a base station in a subsequent evolution system. It can be understood that Yes, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific forms of the first terminal device and the second terminal device, which are only exemplary descriptions. Illustratively, the radio access network device in FIG. 1 may be a base station, or It is a device in a network that provides wireless access.

Exemplarily, in a V2X network, there are two ways for a terminal to obtain V2X SL resources. One is the wireless access network equipment scheduling method. In this way, the V2X terminal is scheduled according to the scheduling information of the wireless access network equipment. The control messages and data of V2X communication are sent on the time-frequency resources of NR. This resource acquisition mode is called Mode 3 (Mode 3) in Long Term Evolution (LTE) V2X, and Mode 1( Mode 1). The other is the way that the V2X terminal independently selects resources. In this way, the V2X terminal selects the time-frequency resources used for communication from the available time-frequency resources contained in the V2X communication resource pool, and sends control messages and data on the selected resources. . This resource acquisition mode is called Mode4 (Mode 4) in LTE V2X, and Mode 2 (Mode 2) in NR V2X.

The above-mentioned terminal self-selection mode (Mode2) is mainly applied to V2X communication without network coverage. Because there is no unified resource management of network equipment, V2X terminals can only select communication resources by themselves for V2X communication, which will cause the communication resources selected by different terminals to occur. collision. One of the existing methods is that in the mode where the V2X terminal selects resources by itself, the V2X terminal can send instructions in advance to indicate the reserved time-frequency resources, and other V2X terminals can monitor the instructions to avoid selecting the same resource, thereby reducing data The probability of a transmission collision. However, when the reservation indication information is sent, the transmission resources occupied by different V2X terminals may still collide, which affects the transmission efficiency of indication information and service data, and affects the transmission efficiency of indication information and service data.

The terminal in the embodiment of this application may refer to the user equipment (UE), access terminal, terminal unit, terminal station, and mobile station in the 5G network or the public land mobile network (Public Land Mobile Network, PLMN) that will evolve in the future , Mobile stations, remote stations, remote terminals, mobile equipment, wireless communication equipment, terminal agents, etc. The access terminal can be a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (PDA), with wireless communication Functional handheld devices, computing devices or other processing devices connected to wireless modems, vehicle-mounted devices or wearable devices, virtual reality (VR) terminal devices, augmented reality (AR) terminal devices, industrial control (industrial) Wireless terminal in control), wireless terminal in self-driving, wireless terminal in remote medical, wireless terminal in smart grid, wireless terminal in transportation safety (transportation safety) Terminal, wireless terminal in smart city, wireless terminal in smart home, etc. The terminal can be a vehicle, a vehicle-mounted communication device or a vehicle-mounted terminal, or a chip in the vehicle-mounted communication device or a vehicle-mounted terminal installed on the vehicle to assist the vehicle driving; it can also be a vehicle-mounted module, vehicle-mounted module, One or more components or units in an on-board component, on-board chip, or on-board unit. Wherein, the vehicle-mounted terminal may be a device used to implement wireless communication functions, such as a terminal or a chip that can be used in the terminal. The vehicle-mounted terminal can be mobile or fixed. The network device in the embodiment of the application may be a device used to communicate with a terminal device. The network device may be a global system for mobile communications (GSM) system or code division multiple access (CDMA) The base transceiver station (BTS) in the LTE system can also be the base station (NodeB, NB) in the wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) system, or the evolved base station (evolved) in the LTE system. NodeB, eNB or eNodeB), it can also be a wireless controller in a cloud radio access network (CRAN) scenario, or the network device can be a relay station, access point, vehicle-mounted device, wearable device, and future The network equipment in the 5G network or the network equipment in the future evolved PLMN network, etc., are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

When the V2X terminal independently selects resources, the time-frequency resource for sending reservation information and the time-frequency resource for sending service data may collide.

Exemplarily, Fig. 2 is a resource reservation method. In the existing resource reservation method, the first time window and the second time window are continuous, and the start time of the second time window is the end time of the first time window. As shown in Figure 2, the time point for UE1 to determine the resource is n1, the first time window of UE1 from time n1 to time n1+t1, and the second time from time n1+t1 to time n1+t2 for UE1 window. The first time window [n1, n1+t1] of UE1 is used to send the resource indication information of UE1. The resource indication information of UE1 is used to indicate the time-frequency resource for UE1 to send data packets. The time-frequency resource for UE1 to send data packets is located in UE1. Within the second time window [n1+t1, n1+t2]. The time point at which the UE2 determines the resource of the UE2 is n2, and the time point n2 is later than the time point n1 in the time domain. The UE2 starts at time n2 to time n2+t1 as the first time window of UE2, and starts at time n2+t1 to time n2+t2 as the second time window of UE2. The first time window [n2, n2+t1] of UE2 is used to send the resource indication information of UE2. The resource indication information of UE2 is used to indicate the time-frequency resource for UE2 to send data packets. The time-frequency resource for UE2 to send data packets is located in UE2. Within the second time window [n2+t1, n2+t2]. The time point when the UE determines the resource may be the time point when the physical layer receives the data packet transmitted by the upper layer (for example, the MAC layer, the RRC layer, etc.).

As shown in Figure 2, at time n1, UE1 can detect resource indication information sent by other devices before time n1, and determine the time and frequency for sending UE1 resource indication information within the first time window [n1, n1+t1] at time n1 Resources. As shown in Figure 2, UE1 can send the resource indication information of UE1 in the black solid square in the first time window (UE1 in the black solid square in Figure 2 represents the time-frequency resource for UE1 to send the resource indication information), The resource indication information of the UE1 is used to indicate the time-frequency resource of the data packet sent by the UE1 in the second time window [n1+t1, n1+t2] of the UE1, that is, the time-frequency resource 1 in FIG. 2.

At time n2, UE2 detects resource indication information sent by other devices other than UE2 before time n2, and at time n2 determines the time-frequency resource for sending UE2's resource indication information within the first time window [n2, n2+t1] of UE2 . Since the time when UE1 sends the resource indication information of UE1 is after time n2, UE2 has not received the resource indication information of UE1 sent by UE1 before time n2. Therefore, it is possible for UE2 to send UE1 to the time-frequency resource 1 of the data packet. Part or all of the time-frequency resources are determined as the time-frequency resources for UE2 to send its resource indication (the black solid square in Figure 2 represents the time-frequency resources for UE2 to send resource indication information), which will cause UE2 to be The time-frequency resource for sending the resource indication information of UE2 in the first time window [n2, n2+t1], and the time-frequency resource for sending data packets by UE1 in the second time window [n1+t1, n1+t2] of UE1 ( Time-frequency resource 1) collides, causing other terminal devices other than UE2 not to receive the resource indication information sent by UE2. Therefore, other devices may reserve the time-frequency resource (time-frequency resource 2) for UE2 to send data packets, thereby affecting Data transmission efficiency.

In order to solve the problem that the time-frequency resource for sending reservation information and the time-frequency resource for sending service data may collide when the V2X terminal independently selects resources, an embodiment of the present application provides a communication method, which can be applied to a terminal device, The terminal device may be the first terminal device or the second terminal device in this application.

Fig. 4 is a communication method provided by an embodiment of this application, and the communication method may include steps S401-S404.

S401: The first terminal device detects second resource indication information from the second terminal device before the time point n.

The second resource indication information is used to instruct the second terminal device to send the second time-frequency resource of the second data packet. The second terminal device may be a terminal device that can listen to the broadcast message sent by the first terminal device. The second terminal device may be one terminal or multiple terminals, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application. .

Exemplarily, the foregoing time point n is a time point at which the first terminal device determines the resource. For example, the time point n may be the time point when the Media Access Control (MAC) layer of the first terminal device receives the data packet transmitted by the upper layer (for example, the service layer), or other time points. The embodiment does not limit this.

Exemplarily, the first terminal device detecting the second resource indication information from the second terminal device before the time point n may include: the first terminal device listens to the broadcast message sent by the second terminal device before the time point n, and The broadcast message carries the second resource indication information, and the first terminal device can learn the second time-frequency resource reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet according to the second resource indication information carried in the broadcast message. It is understandable that the second resource indication is the resource indication information sent by the second terminal device that can be heard by the first terminal device before the time point n, and the resource indication information sent by other terminal devices after the time point n is the first terminal device It cannot be heard, or the first terminal device does not consider the resource indication information sent by other terminal devices after the time point n.

Optionally, the first terminal device may continuously listen to broadcast messages sent by multiple second terminal devices other than the first terminal device at different times, and obtain that the second data packet sent by the multiple second terminal devices before the time point n Second time-frequency resource. It can be understood that the second time-frequency resource for sending the second data packet by different second terminal devices may be different.

Exemplarily, for the first terminal device, starting from the time point n when the first terminal device determines the resource, it corresponds to a set of time windows in the time domain, and the first terminal device considers this set of time when determining the transmission resource. The set of time windows includes: a first time window, a second time window, and an interval time window between the first time window and the second time window. Wherein, the first time window is used for the first terminal device to send resource indication information, and the second time window is used for the first terminal device to send data packets. There is an interval time window between the first time window for sending the resource indication information by the first terminal device and the second time window for sending the data packet, and the length of the interval time window is not zero.

Exemplarily, the lengths of the foregoing first time window, second time window, and interval time window may be equal or unequal, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The case where the lengths of the first time window, the second time window and the interval time window are not equal means that the lengths of the first time window, the second time window and the interval time window are not completely the same. For example, the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window are different from each other, or the length of the first time window and the second time window are the same, and the length of the interval time window is different, or the second time window The length of the interval time window is the same as that of the first time window, or the length of the first time window and the interval time window are the same, but the length of the second time window is different.

Exemplarily, the lengths of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window can be obtained in the following two ways.

In an implementation manner, the first terminal device may receive first indication information from the network device, and the first indication information is used to indicate the first time window, the second time window, and between the first time window and the second time window The length of the interval time window.

Exemplarily, the first indication information may display the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window between the first time window and the second time window. For example, the first indication information may directly carry the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window; or, the network device may also configure multiple radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) signaling. The index and the length of a set of time windows corresponding to each index (a set of time windows includes the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window), and then the index is indicated by Downlink Control Information (DCI) The first terminal device may determine the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window according to the index number indicated by the DCI and the corresponding relationship of the RRC signaling configuration. The first indication information may also implicitly indicate the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window. For example, the corresponding relationship between the bandwidth and a set of time window lengths is pre-configured in the first terminal device, the above-mentioned first indication information may indicate the bandwidth resource, and the first terminal device may determine the first terminal device according to the corresponding relationship between the bandwidth and the pre-configuration. The length of the time window, the second time window, and the interval time window. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific form of the first indication information, and is only an exemplary description here.

Optionally, in this implementation manner, the network device may determine the first time window and the second time window according to the requirements of the transmission delay of the data packet to be transmitted, the statistical value of the data packet size, the network bandwidth, the degree of network congestion, etc. , And the length of the interval time window between the first time window and the second time window, and then send the length of the first time window, the second time window and the interval time window to the first terminal device.

In another implementation manner, the lengths of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window between the first time window and the second time window are predefined.

Optionally, the start and end time of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window may also be predefined. Optionally, the first terminal device may also obtain the length of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window according to the start and end times of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window.

The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific implementation manner in which the first terminal device obtains the first time window, the second time window, and the length of the interval time window between the first time window and the second time window. The foregoing is only Exemplary description.

Exemplarily, it is taken as an example that the time point at which the first terminal device determines the resource is n. As shown in FIG. 5, for the first terminal device, the start time point of the first time window in the time domain is n, and the end time point is n+t1, which can be recorded as the first time window [n, n+ t1]; the start time point of the second time window in the time domain is n+t2, and the end time point is n+t3, which can be recorded as the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]; the first time window There is an interval time window between and the second time window. The start time point of the interval time window in the time domain is n+t1, and the end time point is n+t2, which can be recorded as the interval time window [n+t1, n+ t2]. Among them, t1≠t2 and t2>t1. Optionally, when t2 is equal to twice t1 and t3 is equal to three times t1, the lengths of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window are equal. FIG. 5 only exemplarily shows that the lengths of the first time window, the second time window, and the interval time window are equal.

As shown in FIG. 5, the first terminal device may send resource indication information within a first time window [n, n+t1]. The resource indication information is used to indicate the time-frequency resource for the first terminal device to send a data packet. The time-frequency resource for a terminal device to send data packets is located in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]; that is, the resource indication information is used to reserve the time for sending the data packet of the first terminal device in the second time window Frequency resources. The first terminal device may send the data packet within the second time window [n+t2, n+t3], that is, the first terminal device may send the data packet on the time-frequency resource reserved by the resource indication information.

As shown in FIG. 6, the time point when the UE1 determines the resource is n1, and the time point when the UE2 determines the resource is n2 as an example. In Figure 6, UE1 sends the resource indication information of UE1 within the first time window [n1, n1+t1] of UE1 (the black solid box marked UE1 in Figure 6). The resource indication information of UE1 is used to indicate that UE1 is in The time-frequency resource for sending data packets in the second time window [n1+t2, n1+t3] of the UE1. At time n2, UE2 detects resource indication information sent by other devices other than UE2 before time n2, and determines the time-frequency resource for sending the resource indication information of UE2 within the first time window [n2, n2+t1] of UE2 at time n2.

Since the resource indication information of UE1 occurred after time n2, UE2 did not receive the resource indication information sent by UE1 before time n2. As shown in Figure 6, although UE2 did not receive the resource indication information of UE1 sent by UE1 before time n2, because there is an interval time window between the first time window and the second time window, UE2 is in UE2. When determining the time-frequency resource for sending the resource indication information of UE2 within the first time window [n2, n2+t1], the time-frequency resource is unlikely to collide with the time-frequency resource of UE1 sending the data packet of UE1, thus avoiding UE2 The time-frequency resource for sending resource indication information collides with the time-frequency resource for sending data packets by UE1.

Optionally, the second time-frequency resource for sending the second data packet by the second terminal device may be located in the first time window [n, n+t1] of the first terminal device, or may be located in the interval time window of the first terminal device [n+t1, n+t2], may also be located in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] of the first terminal device, and may also be located in the first time window and interval time window of the first terminal device And in other time periods outside the second time window, the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. For example, the first terminal device listens to the second resource indication information sent by multiple second terminal devices before the time point n. Among them, there may be several second terminal devices that send the second time-frequency resource of the second data packet. Within the first time window [n, n+t1] of the first terminal device, there may also be several second terminal devices sending the second data packet in the second time-frequency resource may be located in the second time window of the first terminal device [ n+t2, n+t3]. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific time period in which the second time-frequency resource for the second terminal device to send the second data packet is located. This is only an example to illustrate the time when the second terminal device sends the second data packet. The frequency resources may be in different time periods.

It is understandable that the meaning of the above first time window [n, n+t1] means that the first time window starts from the time point n to the time point n+t1 in the time domain. The meaning of the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] means that the second time window starts from the time point n+t2 to the time point n+t3 in the time domain.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the time point at which the first terminal device determines the resource is n as an example. Before the time point n, the first terminal device listened to the second resource indication information sent by the second terminal device. In FIG. The second terminal device includes UE1, UE2, and UE3 as an example. A small square in Figure 7 represents a resource block (Resource Block, RB). If the duration of each resource block is Δt, the first terminal device listens to the second sent by UE1 at n-5*Δt. Resource indication information. The second resource indication information of UE1 is used to indicate that the time-frequency resource for sending UE1's data packet is time-frequency resource 1. As shown in FIG. 7, the time-frequency resource 1 is located in the first terminal device of the first terminal device. Within the time window. The first terminal device listens to the second resource indication information sent by UE2 at time n-2*△t, and the second resource indication information of UE2 is used to indicate that the time-frequency resource for UE2 to send the data packet of UE2 is time-frequency resource 2. As shown in FIG. 7, the time-frequency resource 2 is located in the second time window of the first terminal device. The first terminal device listens to the second resource indication information sent by UE3 at time n-Δt, and the second resource indication information of UE3 is used to indicate that the time-frequency resource for UE3 to send the data packet of UE3 is time-frequency resource 3, such as As shown in FIG. 7, the time-frequency resource 3 is located in the second time window of the first terminal device.

It is understandable that, starting from the time point (n) at which each terminal device determines the resource, it can be based on the first time window [n, n+t1] and the interval time window [n+t1, n+t2] that are continuous in time. , And the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] to determine the resource for sending the resource indication information and the resource for sending the data packet. The first time window [n, n+t1] is used for the terminal device to send resource indication information, and the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] is used for the terminal device to send the data packet of the terminal device. Since different terminal devices determine the resource at different time points, the time-frequency resource for a terminal device to send data packets in the second time window of the terminal device may be located in the first time window of other terminal devices, or within the interval time window , Or within the second time window, or other time periods.

It should be noted that the time points n at which different terminal devices determine resources in the embodiment of the present application may be different, but the length of the first time window of different terminal devices is the same, and the length of the second time window of different terminal devices is the same, and different terminal devices The length of the interval time window is the same.

S402: The first terminal device determines the first time-frequency resource from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] at the time point n according to the second resource indication information.

The first time-frequency resource is used to send the first data packet of the first terminal device.

Exemplarily, determining the first time-frequency resource from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] according to the second resource indication information at the time point n by the first terminal device may include: The first time-frequency resource is determined from the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3], where the second time-frequency resource is located in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]. Since the second time-frequency resource is the time-frequency resource for the second terminal device to send the second data packet, the first terminal device from within the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] except for the second time-frequency resource The first time-frequency resource determined in the time-frequency resource is a time-frequency resource that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]. That is, the first time-frequency resource determined in the embodiment of the present application will not overlap with the second time-frequency resource. Therefore, the first time-frequency resource for the first terminal device to send the first data packet and the first time-frequency resource for the second terminal device to send the second data packet Two time-frequency resources will not collide.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the first terminal device can determine the time excluding the second time-frequency resource from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] according to the second resource indication information of UE1, UE2, and UE3. The first time-frequency resource is determined from the frequency resource. The second time-frequency resource of UE1 is time-frequency resource 1, the second time-frequency resource of UE2 is time-frequency resource 2, and the second time-frequency resource of UE3 is time-frequency resource 3. Since the second time window [n+t2, n The second time-frequency resource in +t3] includes time-frequency resource 2 and time-frequency resource 3. Therefore, the first terminal device can divide time-frequency resource 2 and time-frequency resource 2 from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]. The first time-frequency resource is determined from the time-frequency resources other than the frequency resource 3. That is, the first time-frequency resource is a time-frequency resource that is not reserved by other devices for sending the second data packet in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3].

It is understandable that since the first time-frequency resource is the time-frequency resource that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the second time window, the first terminal device sends the first data in the first time-frequency resource During the packet, it will not collide with the second time-frequency resource of the second data packet sent by the second terminal device, which improves the reliability of service transmission.

Optionally, if the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] are less than the first time-frequency resource, and the priority of the first data packet is higher than the second data The priority of the packet. In the above step S402, the first terminal device determines the first time-frequency resource from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] according to the second resource indication information at time point n, which may include: The terminal device determines the time-frequency resource used for sending the first data packet from the second time-frequency resource, where the second time-frequency resource is located in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3]. That is, the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] are not enough to send the first data packet, and the priority of the first data packet is higher than the priority of the second data packet When it is high, the first terminal device can preempt the time-frequency resource reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet. That is, when the time-frequency resources in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] are insufficient, high-priority data packets can preempt the reserved time-frequency resources for sending low-priority data packets.

For example, as shown in Figure 8, the small squares filled with diagonal lines and the small black squares in Figure 8 both represent the second time-frequency resource used to send the second data packet, and the black solid squares in Figure 8 represent The second time-frequency resource of the second data packet sent by UE2 to UE2 is recorded as time-frequency resource 1. If the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] in Fig. 8 are smaller than the first time-frequency resource, that is, the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] The unreserved time-frequency resource is less than the time-frequency resource for sending the first data packet. The first terminal device determines the priority of the first data packet. If the priority of the first data packet is greater than the priority of the second data packet of UE2 in FIG. 8, the first terminal device can send the second data of UE2 from the reservation. The first time-frequency resource used to send the first data packet is determined from the second time-frequency resource of the packet, that is, the first terminal device (UE3 in FIG. 8) can use the second time window [n+t2, The first time-frequency resource used to send the first data packet is determined in the time-frequency resource 1 in n+t3].

It is understandable that when the time-frequency resources in the second time window are insufficient, the embodiment of the present application can preempt the reserved time-frequency resources for sending low-priority data packets through high-priority data packets, thereby ensuring Reliability of high priority data packet transmission.

Optionally, after the first terminal device preempts the reserved time-frequency resources for sending low-priority data packets, the above method may further include: the first terminal device sends a notification message to the second terminal device, the notification The message is used to indicate that some or all of the time-frequency resources in the second time-frequency resources in the second time window are used by the first terminal device to send the first data packet. That is, after the first terminal device preempts the second time-frequency resource reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet, it sends a notification message to other second terminal devices other than the first terminal device to inform other terminal devices of the first Part or all of the second time-frequency resources in the second time window are used by the first terminal device to send the first data packet.

Optionally, after receiving the notification message sent by the first terminal device, the second terminal device that is seized of the time-frequency resource will not send the second data packet on the second time-frequency resource reserved by it. Optionally, the second terminal device whose time-frequency resource is preempted may re-reserve the time-frequency resource for sending the second data packet of the second terminal device.

S403. The first terminal device sends the first resource indication information within the first time window [n, n+t1].

The first resource indication information is used to indicate the first time-frequency resource. The first time-frequency resource is the time-frequency resource for the first terminal device to send the first data packet.

Exemplarily, before step S403, it may further include: the first terminal device determines a third time-frequency resource from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource within the first time window [n, n+t1], and the first terminal device The three-time-frequency resource is used to send the first resource indication information, where the second time-frequency resource is located in the first time window [n, n+t1]. Since the second time-frequency resource is the time-frequency resource for the second terminal device to send the second data packet, the first terminal device uses the time-frequency resource other than the second time-frequency resource within the first time window [n, n+t1] The third time-frequency resource determined in the resource is a time-frequency resource that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the first time window [n, n+t1]. Moreover, since the first time window and the second time window are separated by the interval time window, it is impossible for the first terminal device to send the third time-frequency resource of the first resource indication information when sending data packets with other terminal devices. Frequency resources collide, which improves the reliability of resource indication information.

Exemplarily, the time-frequency resource used by the first terminal device to send the first resource indication information may be one resource block, or multiple resource blocks, or a sub-channel composed of multiple resource blocks. This is not limited. When the time-frequency resource for which the first terminal device sends the first resource indication information is a subchannel, the number of resource blocks included in the subchannel can be configured.

Optionally, the foregoing first terminal device determining the third time-frequency resource from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window [n, n+t1] may include: A resource block is randomly selected from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in a time window [n, n+t1], and determined as the third time-frequency resource; or, the first terminal device selects the resource block from the first time window Multiple resource blocks are randomly selected from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in [n, n+t1], and determined as the third time-frequency resource.

For example, as shown in conjunction with 5, the first terminal device may, according to the second resource indication information of UE1, UE2, and UE3, from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window [n, n+t1] Determine the third time-frequency resource. The second time-frequency resource of UE1 is time-frequency resource 1, the second time-frequency resource of UE2 is time-frequency resource 2, and the second time-frequency resource of UE3 is time-frequency resource 3. The first time window [n, n+t1] The second time-frequency resource in only includes time-frequency resource 1. Therefore, the first terminal device may randomly select a resource block from time-frequency resources other than time-frequency resource 1 in the first time window [n, n+t1] , Determine it as the third time-frequency resource. That is, the third time-frequency resource is a time-frequency resource that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the first time window.

It is understandable that, because the third time-frequency resource for sending the first resource indication information by the first terminal device is the time within the first time window [n, n+t1] that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet Therefore, it is possible to avoid collisions between the third time-frequency resource for sending the first resource indication information by the first terminal device and the time-frequency resource for sending the second data packet from the second terminal device, which improves the resource indication information and service transmission efficiency. reliability.

Exemplarily, the first terminal device sending the first resource indication information in the first time window [n, n+t1] in the above step S403 may include: the third time frequency of the first terminal device in the first time window The resource sends the first resource indication information.

Optionally, since the first terminal device determines the third time-frequency resource from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window [n, n+t1], it is possible that the first terminal device determines The third time-frequency resource of is the time-frequency resource reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second resource indication information, which may cause the first terminal device to send the time-frequency resource indicated by the first resource and the second terminal device to send the second resource The time-frequency resources of the indication information collide. In order to reduce the probability of collision between resource indication information sent by different terminal devices, the third time-frequency resource may include multiple time-frequency resource units, and the first terminal device may send the first Resource instructions.

Exemplarily, when the third time-frequency resource includes multiple time-frequency resource units, determining the third time-frequency resource by the first terminal device may include the following steps a to c.

Step a: The first terminal device obtains the first time-frequency resource pattern.

The first time-frequency resource pattern is used to indicate the relative positional relationship between the multiple time-frequency resource units in the time-frequency domain. The time-frequency resource unit is a time-frequency resource unit that sends the first resource indication information, and the time-frequency resource unit is a time-frequency resource unit in a time-frequency resource other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window.

Exemplarily, the time-frequency resource unit may be one resource block, or may be multiple resource blocks, or may be a sub-channel composed of multiple resource blocks, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. In the following embodiments, only the time-frequency resource unit for sending the first resource indication information is a resource block for description. For example, the above-mentioned time-frequency resource unit is a resource block in the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first time-frequency resource pattern is used to indicate the relative positional relationship between multiple time-frequency resource units in the time-frequency domain, because the time-frequency resource unit is the time in the first time window other than the second time-frequency resource. A resource block in the frequency resource, therefore, the first time-frequency pattern represents the relative positional relationship between multiple resource blocks in the time-frequency resource other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window.

It should be noted that, taking multiple time-frequency resource units as two resource blocks as an example. The relative position relationship in the time-frequency domain in the embodiments of the present application refers to the effective offset position of the two resource blocks in the time-frequency domain, where, in the time domain or in the frequency domain, there is no second terminal between the two resource blocks. The time-frequency resource reserved by the device for sending the second data packet is included in the effective offset, and the second time-frequency resource between two resource blocks is not included in the effective offset. That is, the above-mentioned effective offset does not consider the second time-frequency resource between resource blocks, so the second time-frequency resource is an invalid offset position and is not included in the offset. For example, if the time domain difference between two time-frequency resource units is 1 resource block, it means that the effective offset position of the time domain of the two time-frequency resource units is 1. As shown in FIG. 9, taking one time-frequency resource unit as one resource block as an example, the small square filled with diagonal lines in FIG. 9 represents the second time-frequency resource. Since in the time domain in Figure 9, the time-frequency resource between the resource block RB1 and the resource block RB2 is the second time-frequency resource, that is, the invalid offset position, which is not included in the offset, so the effective offset is not considered The second time-frequency resource between RB1 and RB2, so the effective offset position of the time domain of RB1 and RB2 is 1 resource block. In FIG. 9, the effective offset of RB3 and RB4 in the time domain is 1 resource block, and the effective offset of RB3 and RB4 in the frequency domain is 1 resource block. The effective offset positions of RB5 and RB6 in the time domain in FIG. 9 are one resource block, and the effective offset positions of RB5 and RB6 in the frequency domain are two resource blocks. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the minimum granularity of the time-frequency domain offset of multiple time-frequency resource units. Here, only one resource block with the minimum granularity is taken as an example for exemplification.

In an implementation manner, acquiring the first time-frequency resource pattern by the first terminal device may include: the first terminal device receives a time-frequency resource pattern set sent by a network device (for example, a base station device), and the time-frequency resource pattern set includes: One or more time-frequency resource patterns, and the first terminal device randomly selects a time-frequency resource pattern from the time-frequency resource pattern set as the first time-frequency resource pattern. In this implementation manner, the time-frequency resource patterns randomly selected by different terminal devices may be different, which can reduce the time-frequency resource for the first terminal device to send the first resource indication information and the time-frequency resource for the second terminal device to send the second resource indication. The probability of a collision.

In an implementation manner, acquiring the first time-frequency resource pattern by the first terminal device may include: the first terminal device receives the first time-frequency resource pattern sent by a wireless access network device (for example, a base station device). In this implementation, the radio access network equipment can configure different time-frequency resource patterns for each terminal device. Since different terminal devices have different time-frequency resource patterns, the probability of collisions between resource indication information sent by different devices Will be greatly reduced.

In an implementation manner, acquiring the first time-frequency resource pattern by the first terminal device may include: the first terminal device generates the first time-frequency resource pattern according to its own characteristics.

It can be understood that the first terminal may obtain the first time-frequency resource pattern in any of the above-mentioned manners, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Step b: The first terminal device determines, according to the second resource indication information, that time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window [n, n+t1] are candidate time-frequency resources.

The time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window are the time-frequency resources that are not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the first time window.

For example, as shown in conjunction with 5, the first terminal device may determine, according to the second resource indication information of UE1, UE2, and UE3, that the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window [n, n+t1] are Candidate time-frequency resources. The second time-frequency resource of UE1 is time-frequency resource 1, the second time-frequency resource of UE2 is time-frequency resource 2, and the second time-frequency resource of UE3 is time-frequency resource 3. Since the second time-frequency resource included in the first time window The frequency resource is time-frequency resource 1. Therefore, the first terminal device may determine that time-frequency resources other than time-frequency resource 1 in the first time window [n, n+t1] are candidate time-frequency resources, that is, the first time window [ Time-frequency resources in n, n+t1] that are not reserved by other devices for sending data packets are candidate time-frequency resources. That is, the blank squares in the first time window [n, n+t1] in FIG. 7 are all candidate time-frequency resources.

Step c: The first terminal device determines a third time-frequency resource among the candidate time-frequency resources according to the first time-frequency resource pattern.

The third time-frequency resource includes multiple time-frequency resource units, and the multiple time-frequency resource units are time-frequency resources in the time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window, that is, the multiple time-frequency resources The resource unit is a time-frequency resource unit that is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet in the first time window.

Exemplarily, in the foregoing step c, the first terminal device determines multiple time-frequency resource units among the candidate time-frequency resources according to the first time-frequency resource pattern, which may include: the first terminal device randomly selects one time-frequency resource from the candidate time-frequency resources The frequency resource unit is a first time-frequency resource unit; according to the first time-frequency resource pattern and the first time-frequency resource unit, the second time-frequency resource unit is determined from the candidate time-frequency resources. The second time-frequency resource unit is a time-frequency resource among the candidate time-frequency resources, and the relative positional relationship in the time-frequency domain between the first time-frequency resource unit and the second time-frequency resource unit is the position relationship indicated by the first time-frequency resource pattern , The time domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is later on the time axis than the time domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, that is, the time domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is larger than the time domain of the first time-frequency resource unit.

Exemplarily, the frequency domain of the foregoing second time-frequency resource unit may be higher than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, or may be lower than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application. When the frequency domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is higher than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern may be a positive number; when the frequency of the second time-frequency resource unit is When the domain is lower than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern may be a negative number. Alternatively, when the frequency domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is higher than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern may be a negative number; the frequency of the second time-frequency resource unit When the domain is lower than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern may be a positive number, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application. In the following embodiments, only when the frequency domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is higher than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern is a positive number, and the second time-frequency resource unit When the frequency domain of is lower than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, the relative position of the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern may be a negative number for illustration.

For example, take the time-frequency resource unit as a resource block as an example. If the position relationship indicated by the first time-frequency resource pattern is a time domain difference of 1 resource block RB, and a frequency domain difference of +1 resource block RB. As shown in Figure 10, the small square filled with diagonal lines in Figure 10 represents the second time-frequency resource, that is, the time-frequency resource reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second data packet. The time-frequency resources in the time window other than the small squares filled with diagonal lines are candidate time-frequency resources. The first terminal device may randomly select a resource block from the candidate time-frequency resources as the first time-frequency resource unit. The time-frequency resource unit may be RB1 in FIG. 10. According to the first time-frequency resource pattern and RB1, the first terminal device determines, among the candidate time-frequency resources, a resource block that is 1 RB apart from RB1 in the time domain and +1 RB in the frequency domain, because the frequency domain in the first time-frequency resource pattern The difference is a positive number of resource blocks, so the frequency domain of the second time-frequency resource unit is higher than the frequency domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, and the effective offset position of the frequency domain is 1 resource block, and the second time-frequency resource unit The time domain of is greater than the time domain of the first time-frequency resource unit, and the effective offset position of the time domain is 1 resource block. As shown in FIG. 10, the second time-frequency resource unit is RB2.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned multiple time-frequency resource units may also be three or more time-frequency resource units, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. Here, the multiple time-frequency resource units constitute two A time-frequency resource unit is taken as an example for description.

Optionally, that the first terminal device sends the first resource indication information on the third time-frequency resource in the first time window may include: the first terminal device sends the first resource indication to the multiple time-frequency resource units respectively information.

Exemplarily, the first terminal device may send the first resource indication information respectively in the first time-frequency resource unit and the second time-frequency resource unit determined in step c. That is, the first terminal device may send multiple copies of the first resource indication information.

It can be understood that because the first terminal device and the second terminal device have different first time-frequency resource patterns, that is, the relative positional relationship between the multiple time-frequency resources for which the first terminal device sends multiple copies of the first resource indication information, and The relative positional relationship between the multiple time-frequency resources for which the second terminal device sends multiple copies of the second resource indication information is different. Therefore, the first terminal device sends multiple copies of the first resource indication information for the multiple time-frequency resources and the second terminal The multiple time-frequency resources for sending multiple copies of the second resource indication information by the device will not completely overlap, which can reduce the time-frequency resource for the first terminal device to send the first resource indication information and the time-frequency for the second terminal device to send the second resource indication information. The probability of resource collision, thereby improving the reliability of resource indication information.

It is understandable that the first time-frequency resource unit and the second time-frequency resource unit are determined from the candidate time-frequency resources, and the candidate time-frequency resources are not reserved for sending data by the second terminal device in the first time window Therefore, the first time-frequency resource unit and the second time-frequency resource unit that the first terminal device sends multiple copies of the first resource indication information will not send the second data packet with the second terminal device. Collision occurs between time and frequency resources, which improves the reliability of resource indication information and service transmission.

S404: The first terminal device sends the first data packet in the first time-frequency resource.

Exemplarily, the first time-frequency resource is the time-frequency resource indicated by the first resource indication information, and the first terminal device transmits the first data packet on the first time-frequency resource reserved by the first terminal device.

It is understandable that in this embodiment of the application, the first terminal device learns the resource reservation in the first time window according to the second resource indication information, and is not reserved by the second terminal device for sending the second time window within the first time window. In the time-frequency resource of the data packet, the third time-frequency resource used to send the first resource indication information is determined. Therefore, the third time-frequency resource for sending the first resource indication information by the first terminal device and the second terminal device are avoided A collision occurs between the second time-frequency resources scheduled to send the second data packet. Moreover, because there is an interval time window between the time-frequency resource for sending the first resource indication information by the first terminal device and the time-frequency resource for sending the first data by the first terminal device, the time when the first terminal device sends the first resource indication information The frequency resource does not collide with the time-frequency resource of the second data packet sent by other second terminal devices, which improves the reliability of the resource indication information and makes the transmission efficiency of the network higher.

An embodiment of the present application provides a communication method that obtains a first time window, a second time window, and the length of an interval time window between the first time window and the second time window through a first terminal device; The second resource indication information from the second terminal device is detected before the time point n, and the second resource indication information is used to instruct the second terminal device to send the second time-frequency resource of the second data packet; the first terminal device is at the time point n Determine the first time-frequency resource from the second time window [n+t2, n+t3] according to the second resource indication information; the first terminal device sends the first resource indication in the first time window [n, n+t1] Information, the first resource indication information is used to indicate the first time-frequency resource; the first terminal device sends the first data packet on the first time-frequency resource. Since the first terminal device in this embodiment sends the first resource indication information in the first time window and sends the first data packet in the second time window, there is an interval time window between the first time window and the second time window , And the third time-frequency resource for sending the first resource indication information by the first terminal device is determined in the time-frequency resource other than the second time-frequency resource in the first time window. Therefore, the first terminal device sends the first The time-frequency resource of the resource indication information will not collide with the time-frequency resource of the second data packet sent by other second terminal devices, which improves the reliability of the resource indication information and makes the transmission efficiency of the network higher. Moreover, in this embodiment, the first time-frequency resource is determined from time-frequency resources other than the second time-frequency resource in the second time window, thereby avoiding the time-frequency resource of the first terminal device sending the first data packet and the second terminal device. A collision occurs between the time-frequency resources for sending the second data packet, which improves the reliability of data transmission.
