Description

一种随机接入的通信方法、终端和基站 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种随机接入的通信方法、终端和基站。
背景技术
长期演进(Long Term Evolution,简称为“LTE”)系统中采用共享信道的方式发送数据,同样码元信号在不同的频率资源上传输,它的衰落和干扰是不相同的,而且还在不断变化。使用授权频谱的小区,称为正常(Normal)小区(也可以被称为授权小区),这些小区所使用的频率是经过官方授权的,所以干扰是可控的,数据传输相对可靠。
现在,第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,简称为“3GPP”)引入了辅助授权频段接入(License Assisted Access,简称为“LAA”)小区,与正常小区做载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,简称为“CA”),LAA小区一般作为辅小区(Scell)。与正常小区不同的是,LAA小区所使用的是非授权的频段,任何人都可以使用这些频段进行通信,从而对LAA小区带来干扰,所以LAA小区的数据传输可靠度相对比较低。
同时,3GPP规定,针对LAA小区上的数据传输,无论是基站(Evolutional Node B,简称为“eNB”)还是用户设备(User Equipment,简称为“UE”),它们在发送任何数据前都要先完成(Listen Before Talk,简称为“LBT”)过程。如果LBT成功,则数据正常发送;否则,数据不能发送。
在现有技术中,针对随机接入过程中的上行传输,UE例如可以生成媒体接入控制(Medium Access Control,简称为“MAC”)协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,简称为“PDU”)中,然后通知物理层向eNB上报该MAC PDU。但是,当UE通过非授权频谱小区发送该MAC PDU时,物理层传输数据之前要先进行说前先听(Listen Before Talk,简称为“LBT”)过程。如果LBT过程失败,则无法向eNB传输上行数据。因此,当UE通过非授权频谱小区进行上行传输时,按照现有流程操作,会影响上行数据的上报可靠性和及时性。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行 清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
还应理解,在本发明实施例中,用户设备(User Equipment,简称为“UE”)也可称之为终端、移动台(Mobile Station,简称为“MS”)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal)等,该用户设备可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,简称为“RAN”)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,例如,用户设备可以是移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)、具有移动终端的计算机等,例如,用户设备还可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。
为了便于理解和描述本发明实施例提供的上行数据的传输方法和用户设备,下面首先结合图1介绍一下本发明实施例的应用场景。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以是GSM中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,简称为“BTS”),也可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB,简称为“NB”),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,简称为“eNB或e-NodeB”),本发明实施例并不限定,但为描述方便,下述实施例将以eNB为例进行说明。
在LTE中,为使UE能够接入网络或与网络实现通信,引入随机接入。随机接入共有两种情况:基于竞争的随机接入与基于非竞争的随机接入。在本发明实施例中,涉及的随机接入类型主要是非竞争的随机接入。
如图1所示,对于非竞争的随机接入100,其过程主要参考如下描述:
101,基站向终端发送随机接入前导信息(random access preamble assignment)。
其中,该随机接入前导信息可以包括前导索引号(英文为preamble index)及前导根序列号(rootSequenceIndex),其中前导根序列号和前导索引号可以是在不同的消息中发送,用于UE生成随机接入前导,例如为随机接入前导序列。并且,基站可以在切换过程或在无线资源控制(radio resource control,简称RRC)的连接态下,向终端发送该随机接入前导信息。例如,基站可以向终端发送携带有该随机接入前导信息的切换命令。又如,基站可以通过RRC消息向终端发送前导根序列号,当下行数据到达且上行定时失步时,,基站再经由物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel, 简称PDCCH),向终端发送该随机接入前导信息的前导索引号,用于触发终端进行随机接入。
102,终端向基站发送随机接入前导(random access preamble,简称RA preamble)。
其中,终端可以根据基站预先配置的随机接入前导的时频资源,选择一个合适的随机接入前导的时频资源,用于发送上述随机接入前导,并根据选择的随机接入前导的时频域资源位置,获取随机接入无线网络临时标识(random access radio network temporary identity,简称RA-RNTI)。
例如经由如下公式,推导该RA-RNTI:
RA-RNTI=1+t_id+10*f_id
其中,t_id为物理随机接入信道(phycisal random access channel,简称PRACH)资源的时域位置,f_id为该PRACH资源的频域位置。
103,基站向终端发送随机接入响应(random access response)。
其中,该随机接入响应由基站根据终端发送的随机接入前导生成。例如,当终端通过上述RA-RNTI检测到基站发送的随机接入响应。例如,该随机接入响应的子头(英文为sub-header)中包括终端向基站发送的随机接入前导索引号,则终端可获悉该随机接入响应由基站发送给该终端,而非其他终端。
并且,在引入载波聚合后,终端可以同时与多个服务小区通信,该等服务小区可以由一个基站提供。具体而言,这些服务小区可以只有一个主小区(PCell),用于终端发送控制信令。例如,该主小区可以配置物理上行控制信道(physical uplink control channel,简称PUCCH)发送控制信令,或终端可以在主小区上接收广播消息,或接收寻呼消息。其他服务小区可以为辅小区SCell,例如辅小区可以没有上述PUCCH,终端无法在辅小区上发送上行控制信令,或无法在辅小区上接收广播消息,或接收寻呼消息。另外,出于减少其他辅小区的PDCCH盲检次数的考虑,随机接入响应消息可以通过PCell发送。
如图2所示,以发送该随机接入响应的一个媒体接入控制(medium access control,英文简称为MAC)分组数据单元(protocol data unit,英文简称为PDU)为例,一个MAC PDU可以包含MAC头(header)和MAC净荷(payload)。其中,MAC payload包括0个或至少一个MAC CE(Control  element,控制单元)(图中未示),0个或至少一个MAC随机接入响应(Random Access Response,RAR)。例如,该随机接入响应可以称为MAC RAR,其尺寸大小确定,如48bits。可理解,上述MAC PDU还可以包括填充(英文为padding)。
MAC header包含多个子头(sub-header),每个子头中可以包括T/R/E/RAPID/BI字段,其中,R代表保留字段,E代表是否当前的子头是该MAC PDU里的最后一个子头,T表示该子头包括随机接入前导序列索引号(random access preamble index或random access preamble identitfier,简称RAPID)或回退值(backoff indicator,简称BI)。
MAC sub-header按顺序对应MAC净荷中的单元(MAC CE,MAC RAR),即第一sub-header对应第一个单元,第二个sub-header对应第二个单元,依次类推。可理解,终端确定每个sub-header的位置以及MAC payload的起始位置,终端根据前导索引号匹配sub-header,在根据所匹配的subheader与第一个第二种MAC子头的相对位置确定MAC RAR在MAC payload中的位置。sub-header中的BI或RAPID可以表征该sub-header所对应的单元的类型。例如,sub-header中携带RAPID时,表示第一种MAC字头格式;当sub-header中携带BI时,则表示第二种MAC字头格式。
如图3所示,为第一种MAC字头格式,例如总共为8个比特(bit),RAPID可以占用6个比特。E表示在该MAC PDU中后面是否还有MAC字头,当E=1可以表示还有MAC字头,当E=0可以表示后面是随机接入响应。T表示后面是RAPID还是BI,当T=1可以表示为第一种MAC字头的格式,当T=0可以表示为第二种MAC字头的格式。
如图4所示,为第二种MAC字头格式,例如总共为8个比特。E表示在该MAC PDU中后面是否还有MAC字头,当E=1可以表示还有MAC字头,当E=0可以表示后面是随机接入响应。T表示后面是RAPID还是BI,当T=1可以表示为第一种MAC字头的格式,当T=0可以表示为第二种MAC字头的格式。R为保留位字段,设为0。BI用于当竞争失败,即没有接收到随机接入响应时,在BI所表示的回退值内随机选择一个时间值,把这个时间值作为回退时间。在回退时间后,终端可以继续向基站发送随机接入前导。
当UE有发送数据的需求时,须先上行同步和得到eNB的许可,即UE向eNB申请数据发送许可。应理解,UE向eNB申请数据发送许可主要有两 种方式:一种是eNB为UE配置调度请求(Scheduling Request,简称为“SR”)资源,UE通过SR资源向eNB申请数据发送许可;另一种方式eNB不为UE配置SR资源,而是UE先进行随机接入过程,再进行数据发送过程。随机接入的目的主要为获取eNB的上行授权或获取上行同步。本发明实施主要针对后一种方式,具体为非竞争的随机接入,以获取上行同步,以下进行具体描述。
eNB收到UE的随机接入前导后,进行资源调度决策,决定是否为该UE提供相应的服务,如通知上行时间提前量,以便上行同步;和/或,分配上行资源,以便上行传输。eNB资源调度的最小单元是物理资源块,物理资源块是由时域资源和频域资源共同构成的,物理资源块在时域上为1ms的时间资源,在频域上为12个子载波的频率资源。eNB在物理资源块上完成数据调度。如果eNB决定为该UE提供服务,则为该UE分配上行传输资源,然后通过物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,简称为“PDCCH”)向UE下发上行授权(Uplink Grant,简称为“UL grant”),该UL grant可以包括调制编码方式(Modulation and coding Scheme,简称为“MCS”)、物理资源块(physical resource block,简称为“PRB”)等信息。该UL grant例如用于告诉该UE可以在哪个时间哪个载波上传输数据,以及采用的调制编码方案,以便UE传输上行数据。
目前,第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,简称为“3GPP”)引入了授权辅助接入(License Assisted Access,简称为“LAA”)小区,并将LAA小区与授权频谱小区做载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,简称为“CA”),应理解,LAA小区与授权频谱小区做载波聚合,授权频谱小区可以作为主小区PCell,LAA小区可以作为辅助小区(Secondary Cell,简称为“SCell”)。应理解,载波聚合是LTE/LTE-A中的一项技术,UE可以同时与多个服务小区进行数据传输,任意两个小区之间的连接可以认为是理想的,即传输时延可以忽略,这些服务小区可以都属于同一个基站。在本发明实施例中,多个服务小区包括授权频谱小区和LAA小区。
在LAA小区与授权频谱小区作载波聚合的场景下,UE的服务小区有多个,其中包括LAA小区。应理解,UE通过LAA小区发送上行数据之前,需要先进行说前先听(Listen before talk,简称为“LBT”)过程。LBT指的是UE在发送上行数据前需要进行信道能量检测,如果检测到信道能量低于某 个门限,则认为信道空闲,可以占用信道发送上行数据(也可称之为LBT成功);否则,认为信道忙碌,无法发送上行数据(也可称之为LBT失败)。
结合上述图1可知,当前技术中,UE都是基于正常小区进行非竞争的随机接入。当终端接收到基站发送的随机接入响应后,可以确保向基站成功进行上行传输。而在LAA小区与正常小区做载波聚合的场景下,如果UE或基站选择与LAA小区进行非竞争的随机接入,在物理层收到MAC PDU携带属于该终端的随机接入响应后,首先进行LBT过程。只有在LBT成功的情况下才可以实现上行数据的发送。
应理解,上行数据的发送需要两个步骤:首先是获取基站分配的上行授权,其次是LBT成功。因此,在UE的服务小区为LAA小区与正常小区载波聚合的场景下,当UE基于LAA小区进行非竞争随机接入时,现有的终端向基站进行上行传输的方法,降低了上报上行的可靠性和及时性,从而影响了终端与基站的上行通信。
针对上述技术问题,本发明实施例提出一种上行数据的传输方法和用户设备,能够有效实现基于LAA小区的非竞争随机接入的上行有效性上报。
图5示出了根据本发明实施例提供的一种用于非竞争随机接入的通信方法500,该方法500包括:
510,终端接收基站发送的随机接入前导信息。
530,终端根据随机接入前导信息,向基站发送随机接入前导。
550,终端接收基站发送的随机接入响应,随机接入响应包括上行异步混合自动重传请求HARQ进程标识,上行异步HARQ进程标识用于终端向基站发送上行数据。
应理解,上述方法用于当基站的LAA小区和授权小区载波聚合时,终端基于LAA小区的非竞争随机接入,具体包括:
终端接收基站在终端的任意服务小区发送的随机接入前导信息;
终端在基站的LAA小区向基站发送随机接入前导;
终端接收基站在终端的主小区发送的随机接入响应。
在本发明实施例中,所述上行异步HARQ进程标识,用于异步HARQ模式下的上行数据的新传,该新传数据所对应的冗余版本(redundency version,英文简称RV)为0。例如,基站在第m号子帧向终端发送包括上行授权的随机接入响应,终端在m+4号子帧向基站进行上行初传。
同步HARQ与异步HARQ的区别详述如下:
针对同步HARQ,例如终端可以选择任意空闲的进程进行数据初传,且HARQ进程号配置为2,则终端可以在第0号子帧向基站发送上行数据,或,则终端后续会在第8号子帧再进行上行数据的新传。故,同步HARQ时序的子帧间隔为8。
针对异步HARQ,例如基站指示终端在第0号子帧采用HARQ进程2,在第8号子帧采用HARQ进程1。以初传为例,基站均通过下行控制信息(downlink control indicator,简称DCI)指示终端在具体的子帧用具体的HARQ进程进行上行传输。在本发明实施中,该DCI可以为基站向终端发送的随机接入响应里的一项内容。
基于LAA小区的LBT机制,应用HARQ同步,则增加了上行新传的不可靠性。因为该LAA小区对应的非授权频谱的信道终端可能无法竞争获取,而同步HARQ必须保证在设定的子帧上进行上行新传,且在间隔相同的子帧上再进行上行初传,当LBT失败导致上述子帧无法初传时,则增加了传输时延。
相反,HARQ异步机制则可以降低传输时延,因为基站可以通过DCI灵活指示终端在特定子帧上进行上行初传,相对于HARQ同步机制降低了传输时延。
应理解,上述随机接入响应还可以包括说前先听LBT信息,该LBT信息用于终端获取非授权频谱的信道。
具体而言,在载波聚合小区中,所有小区都可以子帧对齐,即具有统一的子帧边界和子帧号。由于LAA小区使用的是非授权频谱。具体的,LAA小区的频谱范围可为2.4到2.5千兆赫兹(英文为GHz),或5到6GHz,或60到70GHz等频谱中的相应带宽大小的信道。当基站或终端在发送数据之前,需要先做LBT,监听该非授权频谱的信道是否被占用。如果已经被占用,则继续监听,直到发现信道空闲,再进行发送。对基站来说,一旦发现信道空闲,就可以开始传输数据。而对UE来说,需要满足两个条件,才能传输数据。第一个条件是获得基站分配的上行资源,第二个条件是UE进行成功的LBT。
在本发明实施例中,随机接入响应还可以指示用于终端进行上行传输的上行资源位于LAA小区的非授权频谱的信道。例如,基站在第m号子帧为 UE分配上行资源,该资源分配指示可以通过正常小区(即授权小区)发出,也可以通过LAA小区发出。无论基站通过哪个小区向终端发送资源分配指示,都会指示UE,向其分配的上行资源位于LAA小区。
当获得资源分配指示后,UE可以在第(m+4)号子帧前做LBT,监听信道是否被占用。如果被占用,即LBT失败,则不在第(m+4)号子帧发送上行数据。如果上述信道没有被占用,则LBT成功,就在第(m+4)号子帧通过LAA小区发送上行数据。终端可以按照基站指定的参数进行上行传输,上述参数可以包括以下至少一种:数据包大小(trasport block,简称TB size),调制解调方式(modulation and coding scheme,简称MCS),功率谱密度。基站可以根据自行指定的格式,在预定的时频资源位置接收该上行数据。
目前的LBT过程主要有以下几种方式:
1)第二类LBT(category 2 LBT):没有回退的空闲信道评估(Clear Channel Assessment,英文简称CCA)检测,在确定的时机CCA检测,即信道能量检测低于一定门限,发送数据;信道能量检测高于一定门限,信道检测为忙碌,不进行回退,不发送数据。还可以,继续在确定的时机CCA检测,直到CCA检测信道空闲。其中,CCA检测的时间可以大于或等于9微秒(us)。
2)第三类LBT(category 3 LBT):在固定窗口内进行回退的CCA检测,即在一个固定的回退时间窗口内选择一个回退值,只有在检测至少回退值个空闲的CCA检测的时间后,才能发送数据。
3)第四类LBT(category 4 LBT):在可变窗口进行回退的CCA检测,即在一个回退时间窗口内选择一个回退值,只有在检测至少回退值个空闲的CCA检测的时间后,才能发送数据。但是这个回退时间窗口是可变的。可理解,上述方法还可以包括:基于所述非授权频谱的信道,所述终端在所述基站的辅助授权接入LAA小区中,进行上行传输。
在本发明实施例中,上述随机接入响应还可以包括以下至少一种:
调度子帧数,用于一次调度多个子帧进行所述上行传输;
LBT的时间间隔,用于指示终端进行LBT的时域位置;
子帧偏置值,用于指示上行授权与上行传输的子帧间隔;或
上行传输的开始符号与结束符号。
在本发明实施例中,随机接入响应还可以包括上行授权。其中,上行异 步HARQ进程标识和LBT信息中的至少一种,位于随机接入响应的上行授权的预留字段中。
在本发明实施例中,随机接入响应还可以包括物理小区标识(physical layer cell indenty,英文简称为PCI),用于终端识别随机接入响应是否适用于该终端。示例性的,PCI是由主同步信号(Primary Synchronisation Signal,英文简称为PSS)与辅同步信号(secondary synchronization signal,英文简称为SSS)组成,可以通过简单运算获得,比如:PCI=PSS+3*SSS。
具体而言,随着吞吐量的要求越来越大,越来越多的小区进行密集部署。即在有限的前导序列索引的条件下,需要支持多个终端在多个小区的非竞争随机接入。
在载波聚合场景中,可以同时存在基站向终端发送的针对LAA小区进行非竞争随机接入的随机接入响应,及针对正常小区进行非竞争随机接入的随机接入响应,上述两种随机接入响应所包含的内容或大小都可以相同或不同。如果上述随机接入响应均使用相同的随机接入前导索引,UE需要在一个MAC PDU中,鉴别属于自己的随机接入响应。在一个MAC PDU中,例如只能由一种类型的随机接入响应组成,即针对LAA小区进行非竞争随机接入的随机接入响应,与针对正常小区进行非竞争随机接入的随机接入响应,两者择一存在。UE可以通过以下方式进行区别:
方案1:针对RA-RNTI的获取,LAA小区进行非竞争随机接入的UE不同与针对正常小区进行非竞争随机接入的UE,从而保证LAA小区的RA-RNTI和正常小区的RA-RNTI不重叠。例如,针对LAA小区的RA-RNTI,可以通过如下公式获取:
LAA RA-RNTI=1+t_id+10*f_id+k。
其中,其中,t_id为物理随机接入信道(phycisal random access channel,简称PRACH)资源的时域资源位置,f_id为该PRACH资源的频域位置,k为60,或大于60的正整数。
方案2:针对LAA小区的UE与针对正常小区的UE使用不同的前导序列。例如,一个Preamble只能由一种类型的UE使用,即LAA小区中的UE或正常小区中的UE。
方案3:针对LAA小区的随机接入响应只能通过某特定小区发送,不经由PCell。该特定小区可用于传输LAA小区的随机接入响应,但不能传输 正常小区的随机接入响应。具体由哪个特定小区发送LAA小区的随机接入响应,可以由基站配置。
通过以上几种方案可以区分MAC PDU是由LAA小区的随机接入响应构成,还是正常小区的随机接入响应构成。即上述方案可以区分小区级的随机接入响应。
进一步,当小区内的随机接入前导索引相同时,针对不同LAA小区内的UE,可以通过在随机接入响应中携带的PCI进行UE级区分。
具体如图6所示,UE A和UE B都属于相同的PCell,但是SCeLL不一样。UE的SCell是LAA SCell1,而UE B的SCell为LAA SCell2,并且基站为上述UE分配了相同的随机接入前导索引号(Preamble index或Preamble IDentitfier,英文简称RAPID),例如都是第60号前导序列。由于这两个SCell工作在不同的频段,或者,前导根序列不一样,那么即使都是第60号前导序列,最后发送的随机接入前导还是不一样的,所以之间就不会有干扰,基站能同时解码这个随机接入前导。所以在一个MAC PDU里边,就有UE A的随机接入响应消息,又有UE B的随机接入响应消息。那么UE A或者UE B可以通过随机接入响应中的PCI识别属于自己的随机接入响应消息。
综合以上所述,图7描述了针对随机接入响应的具体配置,可以包括以下至少一种:
定时偏移(timing advance command);
上行授权(uplink grant,简称UL grant);
LBT信息,可以包括使用哪一种类型的LBT,或,针对所使用的LBT类型的参数配置。例如,对于第四类LBT,通知终端如何选择回退时间或回退窗口大小等;
PCI;
上行异步HARQ进程标识。
可理解,上述HARQ进程标识可以位于上述随机接入响应的任意字段内,如可位于定时偏移和/或上行授权的预留字段内。或者,在随机接入响应中新增一个预留字段,如LAA小区字段,上述HARQ进程标识、LBT信息和PCI的至少一项包含在该预留字段中。
因此,在本发明实施例中,避免针对LAA小区的非竞争随机接入场景下,终端因LBT失败竞争信道失败所造成的上报时延,能够有效提高终端 上传上行数据的及时性和可靠性。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,在一个MAC PDU里,可以同时存在针对LAA小区的随机接入响应和针对正常小区的随机接入响应。
例如,LAA小区和正常小区可以使用相同的RA-RNTI,导致在一个MAC PDU里可以同时存在针对LAA小区的随机接入响应和针对正常小区的随机接入响应。
基站在发送针对LAA小区的随机接入响应和针对正常小区的随机接入响应时,可以把针对正常小区的随机接入响应放在针对LAA小区的随机接入响应前。可理解,本发明实施例中,可以通过随机接入响应的保留字段R,标识对于LAA小区的随机接入响应。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,终端设备发送上行数据MAC PDU时,携带上行异步HARQ进程标识,以便基站根据接收到的HARQ进程标识和MAC PDU,进行相应HARQ进程的数据合并。例如,上述上行MAC PDU可于终端接收到随机接入响应后进行。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,同时适用于基站内和基站间的载波聚合,且基于载波聚合的随机接入,同时适用于竞争的随机接入和非竞争的随机接入。基站间的载波聚合又被称为双连接(dual connection,简称DC)。在本发明实施例中,基站内的载波聚合可包括LAA小区,基站间的载波聚合指正常小区,也可包括LAA小区。
下面,对终端的协议栈配置结构进行说明。
可选地,该终端具有终端协议栈,在本实施例中,该终端协议栈用于在该终端侧实现与该基站之间通信的数据处理。应理解,该终端协议栈仅为示例性说明,本发明并不限定于此,其他能够在终端侧实现基站与终端之间的通信的协议栈均落入本发明的保护范围内。并且,上述基站与终端之间的通信包括能够行使基站功能的接入网节点与终端之间的通信。例如,能够实现中继节点(Relay Node,简称RN)与终端之间通信的终端协议栈同样落入本发明的保护范围。
作为示例而非限定,上述终端协议栈可以包括以下协议层:分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,简称PDCP)层、无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,简称RLC)层、媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,简称MAC)层和物理(Physical,简称PHY)层。PDCP层主要用于对信息 进行压缩和解压缩/加密和解密;RLC层主要用于实现自动重传请求(Automatic Repeat Request,简称ARQ)的相关功能,对信息进行分段和级联或对分段和级联的信息进行重组;MAC层主要用于对传输格式组合的选择,实现调度和混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request,简称HARQ)的相关功能;PHY层主要用于为MAC层和高层提供信息传输的服务,根据选择的传输格式组合进行编码调制处理或解调解码处理。
本发明实施例提供再一种随机接入的通信方法800,该方法可同时适用于竞争的随机接入和非竞争的随机接入。
如图8所示,上述方法包括:
801,终端的MAC层指示终端的PHY层发送随机接入前导(preamble)。
可理解,终端的MAC层可向终端的PHY层发送以下至少一种信息:
PRACH资源,用于向基站发送随机接入前导;
RA-RNTI,用于终端接收基站发送的随机接入响应;
随机接入前导索引(preamble index),用于PHY层根据前导根序列和Preamble index生成一个前导序列;或
前导传输功率(PREAMBLE_RECEIVED_TARGET_POWER)。
可理解,终端的PHY层可根据上述信息,获取随机接入前导,并向基站发送。
可理解,当为LAA小区的随机接入时,该PHY层进行LBT。反之,当为正常小区的随机接入时,该PHY层无需进行LBT。
803,该终端的PHY层指示该终端的MAC层,上述随机接入前导发送失败。
可理解,上述终端的PHY层可通过隐示或显示方式指示该终端的MAC层,上述随机接入前导发送失败。
可理解,该终端的PHY层发送随机接入前导失败,有以下可能:
对于随机接入LAA小区的终端,LBT未能竞争成功,导致无法发送上述随机接入前导;或者,
对于随机接入LAA小区和/或正常小区的终端,由于发送功率受限,导致无法发送随机接入前导。
可理解,也可由于其他原因,导致无法发送随机接入前导。
上述两种情况下,终端的PHY层均可向MAC层指示功率不攀升,以便 在下一次前导传输时不相应增加随机接入前导的发送功率。例如,以DC场景为例,终端准备随机接入主、辅基站,则需要同时向主、辅基站发送随机接入前导,但可能由于功率不够,无法同时向上述两个基站发送随机接入前导。此时,终端可以选择只发送其中一个随机接入前导,而放弃发送另外一个随机接入前导。示例性的,终端放弃辅基站的随机接入前导发送,那么在辅基站的下一次随机接入前导发送时,终端不相应增加随机接入前导发送的功率,向辅基站的小区发送随机接入前导,即为功率不攀升。
805,该终端的MAC层忽略基站发送的随机接入响应。
在本发明实施例中,忽略上述随机接入响应,可理解为丢弃该随机接入响应、或不进行该随机接入响应的接收。可选的,该终端可通过MAC层忽略基站发送的随机接入响应。
具体而言,忽略该随机接入响应,具体可包括以下步骤:
不启动随机接入响应窗口的定时器,或
不通过RA-RNTI监听PDCCH。
可理解,PDCCH可位于DC里主、辅基站的主小区上,或CA里的主小区。例如,主、辅基站均可具有一个主小区,上述所有的主小区可统称为主辅小区(SPCell),不监听PDCCH可认为是不监听主、辅基站上所有的主小区的PDCCH,或不监听任意一个主小区的PDCCH。
在本发明实施例中,当忽略上述随机接入响应,则终端的MAC层指示终端的PHY层,尽快向基站再次发送随机接入前导,提升随机接入的时效性,确保终端和基站的正常通信。
如图9所示,以随机接入响应窗口的定时器时长为10毫秒(ms)为例,当终端不启动该定时器时,在该时长内,一旦终端获取可用于发送随机接入前导的PRACH时,即可经由该PRACH向基站发送随机接入前导。
如图10所示,为根据本发明实施例的终端1000的示意性框图,该终端1000包括:
发送机1010,用于向终端发送随机接入前导信息;
接收机1030,用于接终端发送的随机接入前导;

可选的,当基站的LAA小区和授权小区载波聚合时,终端基于LAA小区进行非竞争随机接入,具体包括:
发送机1010,用于在终端的任意服务小区向终端发送随机接入前导序列;
接收机1030,用于在基站的LAA小区接收终端发送的随机接入前导;
发送机1010,还用于在基站的主小区向终端发送随机接入响应。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括物理小区标识PCI,用于指示随机接入响应是否适用于终端。
可选的,随机接入响应进一步指示用于终端进行上行传输的上行资源位于LAA小区的非授权频谱的信道。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括以下至少一种:
调度子帧数,用于一次调度多个子帧进行上行传输;
LBT的时间间隔;
子帧偏置值,用于指示上行授权与上行传输的子帧间隔,随机接入响应还包括上行授权;
上行传输的开始符号与结束符号。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括上行授权,上行异步HARQ进程标识和LBT信息中的至少一种,位于随机接入响应为上行授权的预留字段中。
因此,在本发明实施例中,避免针对LAA小区的非竞争随机接入场景下,终端因LBT失败竞争信道失败所造成的上报时延,能够有效提高终端上传上行数据的及时性和可靠性。
应理解,根据本发明实施例的终端1000可对应于本发明实施例的用于非竞争随机接入的通信方法,并且终端1000中的各个模块的上述和其它操作和/或功能分别为了实现图1至图9中的各个方法的相应流程,为了简洁,在此不再赘述。

发送机1101,用于向终端发送随机接入前导信息;
接收机1103,用于接收终端发送的随机接入前导;
发送机1101,还用于向终端发送随机接入响应,随机接入响应包括上行异步混合自动重传请求HARQ进程标识,上行异步HARQ进程标识用于终端向基站发送上行数据。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括说前先听LBT信息,LBT信息用于终端获取非授权频谱的信道。
可选的,基站还包括处理器1105,用于基于非授权频谱的信道,基站的辅助授权接入LAA小区与终端进行上行传输。
可选的,当基站的LAA小区和授权小区载波聚合时,终端基于LAA小区的非竞争随机接入,具体包括:
发送机1101,用于在终端的任意服务小区向终端发送随机接入前导序列;
接收机1103,用于在基站的LAA小区接收终端发送的随机接入前导;
发送机1101,还用于在基站的主小区向终端发送随机接入响应。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括物理小区标识PCI,用于指示随机接入响应是否适用于终端。
可选的,随机接入响应进一步指示用于终端进行上行传输的上行资源位于LAA小区的非授权频谱的信道。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括以下至少一种:

所述传输的开始符号与结束符号。
可选的,随机接入响应还包括上行授权,上行异步HARQ进程标识和LBT信息中的至少一种,位于随机接入响应为上行授权的预留字段中。
因此,在本发明实施例中,避免针对LAA小区的非竞争随机接入场景下,终端因LBT失败竞争信道失败所造成的上报时延,能够有效提高终端上传上行数据的及时性和可靠性。
应理解,根据本发明实施例的基站1100可对应于本发明实施例的用于 非竞争随机接入的通信方法,并且基站1100中的各个模块的上述和其它操作和/或功能分别为了实现图1至图9中的各个方法的相应流程,为了简洁,在此不再赘述。
图12示出了根据本发明实施例的终端1200的示意性框图,该终端1200包括:
终端的MAC层1201指示终端的PHY层1203发送随机接入前导(preamble);
该终端的PHY层1203指示该终端的MAC层1201,上述随机接入前导发送失败;
该终端的MAC层1201忽略基站发送的随机接入响应。
可理解,终端的MAC层1201可向终端的PHY层发送以下至少一种信息:
PRACH资源,用于向基站发送随机接入前导;
RA-RNTI,用于终端接收基站发送的随机接入响应;
随机接入前导索引(preamble index),用于PHY层根据前导根序列和Preamble index生成一个前导序列;或
前导传输功率(PREAMBLE_RECEIVED_TARGET_POWER)。
可理解,终端的PHY层1203可根据上述信息,获取随机接入前导,并向基站发送。
可理解,当为LAA小区的随机接入时,该PHY层1203进行LBT。反之,当为正常小区的随机接入时,该PHY层1203无需进行LBT。
可理解,该终端的PHY层1203发送随机接入前导失败,有以下可能:
对于随机接入LAA小区的终端,LBT未能竞争成功,导致无法发送上述随机接入前导;或者,
对于随机接入LAA小区和/或正常小区的终端,由于发送功率受限,导致无法发送随机接入前导
可理解,也可由于其他原因,导致无法发送上述随机接入前导。
上述情况下,终端的PHY层1203均可向MAC层1201指示功率不攀升,以便在下一次前导传输时不相应增加随机接入前导发送功率。例如,以DC场景为例,终端准备随机接入主、辅基站,则需要同时向主、辅基站发送随机接入前导,但可能由于功率不够,无法同时向上述两个基站发送随机接入 前导。此时,终端选择只发送其中一个随机接入前导,而放弃发送另外一个随机接入前导。示例性的,终端放弃辅基站的随机接入前导发送,那么在辅基站的下一次随机接入前导发送时,终端不相应增加随机接入前导发送功率,向辅基站的小区发送随机接入前导,即为功率不攀升。
在本发明实施例中,忽略上述随机接入响应,可理解为丢弃该随机接入响应、或不进行该随机接入响应的接收。
具体而言,忽略该随机接入响应,具体可包括以下步骤:
不启动随机接入响应窗口的定时器,或
不通过RA-RNTI监听PDCCH。
可理解,PDCCH可位于DC里主、辅基站的主小区上,或CA里的主小区。例如,主、辅基站均可具有一个主小区,上述所有的主小区可统称为主辅小区(SPCell),不监听PDCCH可认为是不监听主、辅基站上所有的主小区的PDCCH。
在本发明实施例中,当忽略上述随机接入响应,则终端可以尽快向基站再次发送随机接入前导,提升随机接入的有效性,确保终端和基站的正常通信。
上述装置实施例中的终端和/或基站还可以分别进一步包括存储器或总线系统。其中,处理器、存储器、接收机和发射机通过总线系统相连,该存储器用于存储指令,该处理器用于执行该存储器存储的指令,以控制接收机接收信号,并控制发射机发送信号。
