Background
In the prior art, a procedure for a terminal to initiate a Contention-based Random Access (CBRA) is roughly as follows:

Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention can be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

The remaining bit field of the DCI is used to indicate random access parameters (including reserved bits), which is specifically shown in table 1.
Figure BDA0002112914090000071
TABLE 1
In the above table, when the random access pilot index is all zero, the SS/PBCH index and the prachmark index are reserved fields.
The network device may trigger a 4-step random access procedure for terminal time synchronization adjustment or secondary cell addition, and the like. At present, the prior art does not support triggering a 2-step random access procedure by a network device, and therefore, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for triggering random access, which implements triggering a 2-step random access procedure by a network device, and can reduce the processing delay of the above operations by using the advantage of low access delay in the 2-step access procedure.
Referring to fig. 2-3, fig. 2 is a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which an embodiment of the invention is applicable. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 21 and a network device 22. Referring to fig. 3, the method for triggering random access according to the embodiment of the present invention, when applied to a terminal, includes:
and step 31, receiving the downlink control information sent by the network.
Here, the format of the downlink control information may be DCI _1_ 0. Specifically, all frequency domain resource allocation domains of the downlink control information are 1 (a representation of PDCCH order). Optionally, the downlink control information includes at least one preset bit for indicating a triggered access procedure, where the access procedure may include 2-step random access and 4-step random access. The at least one preset bit carries flow indication information of a specific random access flow. In the step 31, the downlink control information sent by the network may be scrambled via the C-RNTI of the terminal.
According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, the at least one preset bit requires a minimum of 1 bit. Considering compatibility with the triggering 4-step random access procedure in the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention may use a reserved bit that is not used in the triggering 4-step random access procedure in the prior art, and indicate the triggered random access procedure (e.g., 2-step random access or 4-step random access procedure) through the reserved bit.
Taking the downlink control information shown in table 1 as an example, the embodiment of the present invention may indicate the triggered random access procedure through the last 10 bits (reserved bits) of the downlink control information, and specifically, may pre-agree on a certain bit among the last 10 bits, such as the first bit. Generally, the corresponding relationship between the values of the bits and the random access procedure may be agreed in advance. In addition, in order to be compatible with the scheme for triggering the 4-step random access procedure, the procedure indication information may indicate by using the following correspondence relationship: the value of 1 represents that the triggered random access process is 2 steps; the value of 0 indicates that the triggered random access flow is 4 steps. Referring to table 2, a specific example of the downlink control information for triggering the 2-step random access procedure that may be adopted in the embodiment of the present invention is given:
Figure BDA0002112914090000081
Figure BDA0002112914090000091
TABLE 2
And step 32, when the random access flow triggered by the downlink control information is a 2-step random access flow, initiating random access according to the 2-step random access flow.
Here, the terminal may determine, according to at least one preset bit in the downlink control information, that the random access procedure triggered by the downlink control information is a 2-step random access procedure or a 4-step random access procedure. During specific receiving, the terminal may descramble the downlink control information by using its own C-RNTI, and then parse the indication information of the access procedure from the downlink control information. Specifically, the random access procedure corresponding to the value may be determined according to the value of the bit where the access procedure indication information is located, and specifically may be a 2-step random access procedure or a 4-step random access procedure. For example, when the triggered random access flow is a 2-step random access flow, according to the flow shown in fig. 1, the terminal first sends MsgA to the network device, and then receives MsgB returned by the network device, thereby completing the 2-step random access flow. In addition, for saving space, details regarding the specific steps of the 4-step random access procedure will not be described herein.
Through the steps, the terminal of the embodiment of the invention can initiate the 2-step random access or 4-step random access process according to the triggering of the network equipment, thereby realizing the scheme that the 2-step random access process is triggered by the network equipment, being applied to the operations of terminal time synchronization adjustment or auxiliary cell addition and the like, and reducing the processing time delay of the operations.
According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, when the access procedure indicated by the indication information is 2-step random access, the downlink control information sent by the network device may further include at least one of the following parameters:
pilot frequency index;
subcarrier spacing or system parameter (numerology) indication information;
the waveform indication information is used for indicating a waveform used by the terminal for transmission;
modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS);
frequency hopping indication information for indicating whether the PUSCH is frequency hopped or not;
a Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) port;
and indications of other functions or parameters.
Here, the system parameter (numerology) may include various contents such as a subcarrier Interval, a Cyclic Prefix (CP) length, a Transmission Time Interval (TTI) length, and the like.
In this way, in step 33, during the process of initiating the 2-step random access, the terminal performs transmission of a pilot and/or a PUSCH according to the parameter, for example, performs PUSCH transmission according to a modulation and coding strategy indicated by the downlink control information.
The flow at the terminal side in the embodiment of the present invention is explained above. Referring to fig. 4, the method for triggering random access according to an embodiment of the present invention, when applied to a network device, includes:
and step 41, sending downlink control information to the terminal, wherein the downlink control information is used for triggering the 2-step random access process.
Here, the network device (e.g., the base station) may determine whether the random access procedure of the terminal needs to be triggered according to specific needs, and what type of random access procedure is specifically triggered. In this embodiment of the present invention, before step 41, the network device may determine that a random access process of the terminal needs to be triggered when initiating a target operation for the terminal, determine that the random access process that needs to be initiated is a 2-step random access process or a 4-step random access process according to whether a requirement of the target operation on an operation delay is lower than a preset threshold, and enter step 41 to send the downlink control information when the random access process that needs to be initiated is the 2-step random access process. Specifically, the target operation includes, but is not limited to, the following operations:
re-acquiring the time adjustment quantity of the terminal;
adding an auxiliary cell for the terminal;
and positioning the terminal.
For example, when the network device needs to send downlink data to the terminal, if it is detected that the connection of the terminal is out of synchronization, that is, the uplink synchronization of the terminal is lost, it may be determined that a random access procedure of the terminal needs to be triggered to obtain a correct Time Adjustment (TA). Optionally, if the service delay requirement of the target service corresponding to the downlink data is lower than a preset threshold, the network device determines that the time adjustment amount needs to be obtained as soon as possible, and at this time, the network device may determine that the random access procedure to be initiated is a 2-step random access procedure.
For another example, when the network device adds a secondary cell to the terminal, it may be determined that a random access procedure of the terminal needs to be triggered. Optionally, if the network device needs to complete the addition of the secondary cell as soon as possible, it is determined that the random access procedure to be initiated is a 2-step random access procedure, otherwise, it is determined that the random access procedure to be initiated is a 4-step random access procedure.
Optionally, all frequency domain resource allocation domains of the downlink control information are set to 1.
Optionally, at least one preset bit in the downlink control information may be used to indicate that the triggered random access procedure is a 2-step random access procedure or a 4-step random access procedure. For example, the indication is performed by one bit of the last 10 bits of the downlink control information, such as the first bit of the last 10 bits.
And step 42, responding to a 2-step random access flow initiated by the terminal according to the downlink control information, and establishing connection with the terminal.
Through the steps, the embodiment of the invention realizes the triggering of the network equipment to the terminal random access flow, and can trigger the 2-step random access flow as required, thereby meeting the requirements of different operations on processing time delay.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the random access procedure triggered by the downlink control information is 2-step random access, the downlink control information further includes at least one of the following parameters, which is used to instruct the terminal to transmit a pilot frequency and/or a PUSCH according to the following parameters in the 2-step random access process:
pilot frequency index;
subcarrier spacing or system parameter (numerology) indication information;
waveform indication information;
a modulation coding strategy;
frequency hopping indication information for indicating whether the PUSCH is frequency hopped or not;
demodulation reference signal port, etc.
The method for triggering the random access procedure of the embodiment of the invention is introduced from the terminal and the network equipment side respectively. The above method will be explained below by a specific example, which specifically includes:
1) the base station adds an auxiliary cell for user 1 and user 2, respectively, and needs to measure uplink timing information from user 1 and user 2 to the auxiliary cell base station, so that the user needs to be triggered to perform an RACH procedure.
2) The base station configures the relevant parameters of 4-step RACH for the user 1 and simultaneously configures the relevant parameters of 4-step RACH and 2-step RACH for the user 2.
3) The base station triggers user 1 to perform 4-step RACH flow by using PDCCH order, specific DCI is scrambled by C-RNTI of user 1, and the information of the DCI is shown in Table 3
Figure BDA0002112914090000121
TABLE 3
Note that the access procedure is indicated as 0 at this time, as with the conventional reserved bit value, therefore, this design does not affect the mechanism of triggering UE RACH procedure by PDCCH in the prior art.
4) The base station triggers user 2 to perform a 2-step RACH procedure by using the PDCCH order, the specific DCI is scrambled by the C-RNTI of user 2, and the DCI information is shown in table 4, where table 4 further indicates a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for data transmission, and specifically may adopt an index number of the modulation and coding scheme, for example, the index is 2.
Figure BDA0002112914090000122
Figure BDA0002112914090000131

5) The user 1 carries out a 4-step RACH process according to the relevant information; and the user 2 performs a 2-step RACH flow according to the relevant information, wherein in the msgA, the PUSCH adopts a modulation coding strategy with the index of 2 to perform data transmission.
Based on the method, the embodiment of the invention also provides equipment for implementing the method.
