Technical Field

The application belongs to the technical field of communication, and particularly relates to a data control method, a data control device and communication equipment.

Background

Existing Extended Reality (XR) media units may include, but are not limited to: frames, video slices (video slices), blocks (tiles), groups of pictures (Group of Pictures, GOP), etc. The frames have a periodicity such as refresh rate 30FPS. A group of pictures (A group of picture) may include I frames, P frames, B frames. The two consecutive frames have a periodic interval therebetween, but there is no periodic characteristic at a certain class of frame angle. Another frame may include multiple slices. For example, an I frame may include one or more I slices, P slices, B slices, a P frame may include only one or more P slices, and a B frame may include only one or more B slices.

Detailed Description

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which are derived by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application, fall within the scope of protection of the application.

The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein, and that the "first" and "second" distinguishing between objects generally are not limited in number to the extent that the first object may, for example, be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally means a relationship in which the associated object is an "or" before and after.

It should be noted that the techniques described in the embodiments of the present application are not limited to long term evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE)/LTE evolution (LTE-Advanced, LTE-a) systems, but may also be used in other wireless communication systems, such as code division multiple access (Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA), time division multiple access (Time Division Multiple Access, TDMA), frequency division multiple access (Frequency Division Multiple Access, FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access, OFDMA), single carrier frequency division multiple access (Single-carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access, SC-FDMA), and other systems. The terms "system" and "network" in embodiments of the application are often used interchangeably, and the techniques described may be used for both the above-mentioned systems and radio technologies, as well as other systems and radio technologies. The following description describes a New air interface (NR) system for purposes of example, and NR terminology is used in much of the description below, butAre also applicable to applications other than NR systems, e.g. generation 6 (6 ^th Generation, 6G) communication system.

In a specific example, a series of consecutive GOP1 pictures contains a first frame (I-frame), a second frame (P-frame), a third frame (B-frame), and a fourth frame (B-frame); wherein the first frame (I-frame) contains five slices in the order: IIPBB; the second frame (P-frame) contains two slices in the order: the PP, the third frame (B frame) contains three slices, in the order: the BBB, the fourth frame (B frame), contains two slices in the order: BB, then the data arrival characteristics are shown in Table 1.

TABLE 1

It is apparent that after different types of slices are mapped to different data sets, the period of the frame is the data arrival time period of the Group embodied by a Group of different types of data sets, rather than the data arrival period of one data set. In the case where the characteristics of each GOP in succession are different, I slice burst, P slice burst, B slice burst (a burst may contain one frame, a frame may contain one or more consecutive B slices) arrive without a specific period

Data set 1=i video slice

Data set 2=p video slice

Data set 3=b video slice

QoS tunnels in order for the RAN to obtain the frame period, the mapping of the data sets to QoS tunnels (e.g., qoS flows, qoS sub-flows) needs to be considered first. There are three possible ways of QoS channel and data set mapping:

mode 1: a QoS channel comprises a data set, a radio bearer mapping a QoS channel;

mode 2: one QoS channel comprises one or more data sets, one radio bearer mapping one QoS channel;

mode 3: one QoS channel comprises one or more data sets, one radio bearer maps one data set, i.e. one QoS channel maps to multiple radio bearers.

Wherein, the data set has no attribute of the kind, and different data sets are distinguished by PS (data set) 5QI+QoS+auxiliary information (such as period).

QoS lanes for the above-described manner 1, the three data sets correspond to three QoS lanes, and it is apparent that the three QoS lanes themselves have no respective data and no unique periodicity. But the data in the flow group of three QoS channels has a unique periodicity.

For the above-described mode 3, the three data sets correspond to three radio bearers, and the data in the radio bearer group formed by the three radio bearers is periodic.

To accommodate the new scenario, the present application needs to address how to provide periodic information of "group" (data set group, qoS channel group, radio bearer group) granularity to the RAN. When one PDU Session has only one XRM service, the period information of the QoS channel group may be represented on the PDU Session granularity.

Assuming that the GOP characteristics are stable as shown in table 2, the data set can have a period, and if the period of the frame is 60FPS, as shown in table 2, burst period information of the data set 1 is one, a start time point, and the period is 15FPS; the burst period information of the data set 2 is two, and the first starting time point is 15FPS; the second starting time point is 16.67ms apart from the first starting time point, and the period is 15FPS; the burst period information of the data set 3 is three, as shown in fig. 2, and the first starting time point is 15FPS; the second starting time point and the first starting time point are spaced by 16.67 x 2ms, and the period is 15FPS; the third start time point is spaced 16.67×3ms from the first start time point, and the period is 15FPS (frame period/number of frames in GOP).

TABLE 2

The present application also needs to solve the problem of how to provide a RAN with multiple starting points in time when the data set data burst has a periodic nature, including the following three options:

option 1-one QoS channel includes one data set, one radio bearer maps one QoS channel

Option2: one QoS channel includes one or more data sets, one radio bearer maps one QoS channel Option3: one QoS channel comprises one or more data sets, one radio bearer maps one data set, i.e. one QoS channel maps to multiple radio bearers.

For Option1, the data set level/QoS channel level/radio bearer level is consistent, the period information needs to contain multiple start times in addition to the period (there may also be multiple) as well (the Nth start time may be embodied by a time interval with the Nth start time of N-1, or with the first start time, N > = 2);

for Option2, the frame period is used as the period of the QoS channel. However, if multiple XR traffic flows are mapped in one QoS channel, there may be multiple cycles and multiple start times in one QoS channel. Based on this, it should be required that one QoS channel can only map one XR service, and multiple XR services cannot be shared, even if QoS parameters of two XR services are the same;

For Option3, the data set level is consistent with the radio bearer level, and the period information needs to include multiple start times in addition to the period (there may also be multiple) as well (the nth start time may be represented by a time interval with the nth-1 start time, or with the first start time, N > =2).

In a specific example, a series of consecutive GOP1 pictures contains a first frame (I-frame), a second frame (P-frame), a third frame (B-frame), and a fourth frame (B-frame); the regular characteristics of the data are shown in table 3. The two consecutive frames have a periodic interval therebetween, but there is no periodic characteristic at a certain class of frame angle. The class of frames in one burst, one frame in a different burst, may be the same or different. The period interval of burst is the period A of the frame.

In the case where a plurality of data sets are mapped to frames of three categories, each data set has no periodicity, but a data set group constituted by the plurality of data sets has periodicity equivalent to the frame period, or, in other words, the frame interval.

TABLE 3 Table 3

			Frame	I，P，B，B，	I，B，P

Assuming that the GOP characteristics are stable, as shown in table 4, then the period of frames of different categories can be deduced. The class of frames in one burst, one frame in a different burst, may be the same or different. The period interval of burst is the period A of the frame.

For an I-frame, which has a period of 4A, the arrival time of the first packet can be considered the start time.

For a P frame, the period is 4a, and the starting time point of the P frame is a relative to the time interval of the first packet of the I frame.

For the B frame, which has a period of 4a, the B frame has two start points in time, 2 xa, and 3 xa with respect to the first packet of the I frame.

Assuming that the I frame, the P frame, and the B frame map three data sets, respectively, the period of the group consisting of the three data sets is a.

For data set 1 (map I frame), its period is 4A. The period information included in the period related information of the data set 1 may be 4A. The start time of data set 1 may be the arrival time of the first data packet.

For data set 2 (map P frame), its period is 4A. The period information included in the period related information of the data set 2 may be 4A. The start time of data set 2 depends on the start time of data set 1. Thus, the information of the start time of the data set 2 may comprise: information of data set 1, and a time interval a of the start time of data set 2 and the start time of data set 1. Or the start time of data set 2 may be the arrival time of the first packet of data set 2.

For data set 3 (map P frame), its period is 4A. The period information included in the period related information of the data set 3 may be 4A. The start time of data set 3 depends on the start time of data set 1. Thus, the information of the start time of the data set 3 may comprise: the information of data set 1 and the time interval between the start time of data set 3 and the start time of data set 1 are 2×a,3×a, respectively. The start time of data set 3 may also be the arrival time of the first packet of data set 3.

I-frames, P-frames and B-frames are the second object group, and three data sets are the first object group;

the second period is a burst period interval of the data stream, and in the case that different data units in the burst map the first object, different types of data units of the data stream,

The second period is the period of the frames, and after the frames of different categories map a plurality of first object groups

Description information of the second class burst: the period of burst, the class of data units in burst. The data units of burst are the same or different,

description information of class II burst: the period of burst, the class of data collection in burst. The data units of burst are the same or different.
