寻呼是网络寻找用户设备(User Equipment,简称为“UE”)的信令流程,网络中被叫必须通过寻呼来响应,才能正常通信,为减少信令负荷,在长期演进系统(Long Term Evolution,简称为“LTE”)网络中寻呼触发条件有三种:UE被叫(由移动管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,简称为“MME”))、系统消息改变(由基站eNB发起),地震告警(Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System,简称为“Etws”)。
现有LTE网络中,寻呼过程的实现依靠时间提前量(Timing Advance,简称为“TA”)来进行,寻呼在跟踪区(Tracking Area Code,简称为“TAC”)内进行,并且寻呼消息是在TAC内全向发送的,终端在TAC的任何方位都能接收到寻呼消息。未来的通信系统中会引入高频段(大于6GHz),在高频段接入方面,路径损耗与频率变换的平方成正比,因此,高频段在较短距离内就会产生较大的损耗。如果采用现有LTE网络中的寻呼消息发送方法将会导致寻呼消息的接收质量较差。

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的一部分实施例,而不是全部实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都应属于本发明保护的范围。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,简称为“GSM”)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,简称为“CDMA”)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,简称为“WCDMA”)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,简称为“GPRS”)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,简称为“LTE”)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency  Division Duplex,简称为“FDD”)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,简称为“TDD”)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,简称为“UMTS”)或全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,简称为“WiMAX”)通信系统、5G系统,或者说新无线(New Radio,NR)系统。
本发明实施例中,名词“网络”和“系统”经常交替使用,但本领域技术人员可以理解其含义。本发明实施例所涉及到的终端设备可以包括各种具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备,以及各种形式的用户设备(User Equipment,简称为“UE”),移动台(Mobile Station,简称为“MS”),终端(Terminal),终端设备(Terminal Device)等等。为方便描述,本发明实施例中,上面提到的设备统称为终端设备。
本发明实施例所涉及到的接入网设备是一种部署在无线接入网中用以为终端设备提供无线通信功能的装置。接入网设备可以为基站,所述基站可以包括各种形式的宏基站,微基站,中继站,接入点等。在采用不同的无线接入技术的系统中,具有基站功能的设备的名称可能会有所不同。例如在LTE网络中,称为演进的节点B(Evolved NodeB,简称为“eNB”或“eNodeB”),在第三代(3rd Generation,简称为“3G”)网络中,称为节点B(Node B)等等。
图1是本发明实施例的一个应用场景图。如图1中所示出的,接入网设备可以向终端设备发送寻呼消息。通常接入网设备向终端设备发送寻呼消息的触发条件有三种:终端设备被叫(由核心网设备,例如,移动管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,简称为“MME”)触发)、系统消息改变(由接入网设备触发)和地震告警(Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System,简称为“Etws”)。
接入网设备在向终端设备发送寻呼消息时,将可以具有相同寻呼时机的终端设备的寻呼内容汇总在一条寻呼消息里,将寻呼消息的内容映射到寻呼控制信道(Paging Control Channel,简称为“PCCH”)逻辑信道中,并根据终端设备的非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,简称为“DRX”)周期在物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,简称为“PDSCH”)上发送给终端设备。相对应的,终端设备根据DRX周期检测物理下行控制 信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,简称为“PDCCH”),查看是否有寻呼消息,如果PDCCH指示有寻呼消息,UE确定寻呼消息是否属于自己,如果属于自己,终端设备接收寻呼消息。
图2是根据本发明实施例的发送寻呼消息的方法的示意性流程图,如图2所示,方法100包括:
S110,接入网设备确定寻呼消息;
S120,该接入网设备确定寻呼开始时刻和寻呼发送持续时长;
S130,该接入网设备根据该寻呼开始时刻和该寻呼发送持续时长,以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送该寻呼消息。
因此,根据本发明实施例的发送寻呼消息的方法,接入网设备采用波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送寻呼消息,能够提高寻呼消息的接收质量。
可以理解的是,寻呼发送持续时长即为用于发送寻呼消息的寻呼波束的扫描持续时间。
具体地,在S110中,接入网设备确定寻呼消息可以是:接入网设备接收MME发送的寻呼消息,接入网设备将接收到的寻呼消息确定为要发送给终端设备的寻呼消息;或者,在系统消息发生改变时,接入网设备生成要发送给终端设备的寻呼消息。
可选地,作为一个例子,接入网设备根据终端设备的寻呼周期,确定寻呼开始时刻和寻呼发送持续时长。其中,如图3中所示出的,终端设备的寻呼周期包括第一时段和第二时段,第一时段为终端设备持续监听寻呼消息的时段,第二时段为终端设备处于睡眠状态的时段。接入网设备将小于或等于该第一时段的时长的值确定为该寻呼发送持续时长。也就是说,接入网设备需要保证寻呼波束的扫描时长小于或等于终端设备持续监听寻呼消息的时长。
可选地,作为一个例子,接入网设备可以采用公式(1)描述的方法确定寻呼开始时刻ts:
SFN mod T=(T div N)*(UE_ID mod N)         (1)
其中,SFN代表系统帧号,即当前UE所在的无线帧的帧号;T代表终端设备的寻呼周期;N:N=min(T,nB),nB代表寻呼的密度;UE_ID包含在寻呼消息中,UE_ID等于国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number,简称为“IMSI”)mod 1024,div代表除法 运算,mod代表求余运算。
可以理解的是,本发明实施例中的时间单位为无线帧,但本发明并不限于此,时间单位还可以为其他的值。
作为一个可选地例子,在S120之前,接入网设备接收核心网设备发送的第一消息,该第一消息中包括用于指示该第一时段的时长的信息。由此,接入网设备可以根据该第一时段的时长T'确定寻呼持续时长。在这个例子中,T'是核心网设备确定的,核心网设备可以根据终端设备的信息确定T',例如,核心网设备可以根据终端设备发起的业务的属性确定T'。
可选地,作为一个例子,接入网设备基于接入网设备的实现确定T',之后,接入网设备向核心网设备发送第二消息,该第二消息中包括用于指示该T'的信息。可以理解的是,在这个例子中,核心网设备根据接入网设备确定的T'确定终端设备的寻呼周期T,并保证终端设备的寻呼周期T不小于T',其中,如果多个接入网设备向核心网设备发送的T'不相同,核心网设备在确定终端设备的寻呼周期T时,考虑具有最大值的T'。
进一步地,终端设备的寻呼周期T可以为第一时段的时长的N倍,N为大于1的正整数。或者表述为T是T'的整数倍。
在上述的实施例中,可选地,如图4所示,在S130之前,方法100还包括:
S140,该接入网设备根据该第一时段的时长,确定发送该寻呼消息所需要的寻呼波束的数量为M,M为大于或等于1的正整数。
换句话说,接入网设备在确定T'后,根据T'确定发送寻呼消息时所需要的寻呼波束的数量,由此保证寻呼波束在T'内在接入网设备的覆盖区域内扫描完整。
举例来说,如果接入网设备确定采用单个寻呼波束以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送寻呼消息,接入网设备可以单方向进行扫描,例如可以按照顺时针或者逆时针的方式进行扫描,例如图5中所示出的。
或者,如果接入网设备采用多个波束以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送寻呼消息,例如图6中所示出的,接入网设备采用2个波束以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送寻呼消息,接入网设备将2个波束沿着相对的方向进行扫描。或者,如果接入网设备确定需要采用3个波束以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送寻呼消息,接入网设备可以采用彼此之间夹角为120度的三个波束, 沿着单方向进行扫描,例如沿着顺时针或者逆时针方向进行扫描。
可选地,作为一个实施例,接入网设备采用L个寻呼波束在该寻呼开始时刻开始以波束扫描的方式向终端设备发送该寻呼消息,该L个寻呼波束中任意两个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长不同,L为大于或等于2的正整数。其中,L个波束中每个波束可以只扫描接入网设备的覆盖区域的一部分区域。
进一步可选地,L的取值为2,其中,2个寻呼波束中一个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长为该终端设备所在的小区的小区特定持续监听时长或预设时长,该2个寻呼波束中另一个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长为该终端设备的终端设备特定持续监听时长。在这个例子中,小区特定持续监听时长可以是基于接入网设备的实现确定的,预设时长可以是协议规定的,终端设备特定的持续监听时长可以是核心网设备基于终端设备的信息确定的,终端设备也定的持续监听时长还可以是接入网设备确定的。
可选地,作为一个例子,接入网设备向终端设备发送系统消息,该系统消息中包括用于指示该第一时段的时长的信息,或者可以理解为,第一时段的时长可以通过系统信息配置给终端设备。或者,接入网设备可以在与终端设备进行非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,简称为“DRX”)周期协商时将第一时段的时长配置给终端设备。
在上述的实施例中,可选地,如果接入网设备接收到该终端设备发送的用于指示成功接收该寻呼消息的响应消息,该接入网设备停止向该终端设备发送寻呼消息。例如,当终端设备成功接收到寻呼消息后,终端设备发起接入过程响应寻呼消息,接入网设备接收到终端设备的寻呼响应的指示后,停止发送寻呼消息。并且,可以理解的是,如果寻呼消息中包括对多个终端设备的寻呼消息,接入网设备需要接收到所有终端设备发送的响应消息后,才停止寻呼消息的发送。
以上结合图2至图6从接入网设备侧详细描述了根据本发明实施例的发送寻呼消息的方法,下面将结合图7至图9从终端设备侧详细描述根据本发明实施例的接收寻呼消息的方法。如图7所示,方法200包括:
S210,终端设备确定寻呼开始时刻和寻呼接收持续时长;
S220,该终端设备根据该寻呼开始时刻和该寻呼接收持续时长,接收寻呼消息。
因此,根据本发明实施例的接收寻呼消息的方法,终端设备根据寻呼开始时刻和寻呼接收持续时长接收寻呼消息,因此能够提高寻呼消息的接收质量。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该寻呼消息是接入网设备根据该寻呼开始时刻和寻呼发送持续时长以波束扫描的方式发送的,该寻呼接收持续时长大于或等于该寻呼发送持续时长。由于,寻呼消息是接入网设备通过波束扫描的方式发送的,因此能够进一步提高寻呼消息的接收质量。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该终端设备确定寻呼开始时刻和寻呼接收持续时长,包括:该终端设备根据该终端设备的寻呼周期,确定该寻呼开始时刻和该寻呼接收持续时长。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该寻呼周期包括第一时段和第二时段,其中,该第一时段为该终端设备持续监听该寻呼消息的时段,该第二时段为该终端设备处于睡眠状态的时段;
其中,该终端设备根据该终端设备的寻呼周期,确定该寻呼接收持续时长,包括:该终端设备将该第一时段的时长确定为该寻呼接收持续时长。
可选地,终端设备可以采用公式(2)描述的方法确定寻呼开始时刻ts:
SFN mod T=(T div N)*(UE_ID mod N)         (2)
其中,SFN代表系统帧号,即当前UE所在的无线帧的帧号;T代表终端设备的寻呼周期,接入网设备会在系统消息SIB2中广播此参数给终端设备;N:N=min(T,nB),nB代表寻呼的密度,终端设备从SIB2中读取nB;UE_ID:包含在寻呼消息中,UE_ID等于国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number,简称为“IMSI”)mod 1024,div代表除法运算,mod代表求余运算。
可以理解的是,本发明实施例中的时间单位为无线帧,但本发明并不限于此,时间单位还可以为其他的值。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,如图3中所示出的,该终端设备根据该寻呼开始时刻和该寻呼接收持续时长接收寻呼消息,包括:该终端设备在该寻呼开始时刻开始启动第一计时器计,并同时开始在该第一时段内持续监听该寻呼消息,该第一计时器计的计时周期为该寻呼周期;如果该终端设备在该第一时段内没有监听到该寻呼消息,该终端设备进入睡眠状态;当该终端设备确定该第一计时器超时时,该终端设备重新开始持续监听该寻呼消息。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,如图8所示出的。该终端设备根据该寻呼开始时刻和该寻呼接收持续时长,接收该寻呼消息,包括:该终端设备在从该寻呼开始时刻开始的该第一时段内持续监听该寻呼消息;如果该终端设备在该第一时段内没有监听到该寻呼消息,该终端设备在该第一时段的结束时刻开启第二计时器,并同时进入睡眠状态,该第二计时器的计时周期为该第二时段的时长;当该终端设备确定该第二计时器超时时,该终端设备重新开始持续监听该寻呼消息。
换句话说,终端设备在寻呼开始时刻醒来开始监听寻呼消息,当监听时长为第一时段对应的时长时,终端设备进入睡眠状态,同时启动定时器,当定时器超时时,终端设备重新醒来监听寻呼消息。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该寻呼周期为该第一时段的时长的N倍,N为大于1的正整数。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该寻呼消息是该接入网设备采用L个寻呼波束在该寻呼开始时刻开始以波束扫描的方式发送的,该L个寻呼波束中任意两个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长不同,该第一时段的时长大于或等于该L个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长的最大值,L为大于或等于2的正整数。
也就是说,如果接入网设备采用多个寻呼波束发送寻呼消息,并且多个波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长不同时,终端设备按照多个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长的最大值接收寻呼消息,一旦终端设备正确接收到寻呼消息,终端设备停止对寻呼消息的接收。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,L的取值为2,其中2个寻呼波束中一个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长为该终端设备所在的小区的小区特定持续监听时长或预设时长,该2个寻呼波束中另一个寻呼波束对应的寻呼发送持续时长为该终端设备的终端设备特定持续监听时长。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该终端设备接收该接入网设备发送的系统消息,该系统消息中包括用于指示该第一时段的时长的信息。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,如图9所示出的,如果终端设备成功接收到接入网设备发送的寻呼消息,该终端设备向该接入网设备发送用于指示成功接收该寻呼消息的响应消息;如果该终端设备接收到该接入网设备发送的针对该响应消息的确认消息,该终端设备开启第三定时器,并同时进入睡眠 状态;或,该终端设备在从接收到该确认消息的时刻开始延迟K个时间单元的时刻开启该第三定时器,并同时进入睡眠状态,K为大于或等于1的正整数。
作为一个例子,N的数值可以是协议中约定的或者是接入网设备配置给终端设备的,第三定时器的定时周期可以是协议中规定的或者是接入网设备配置给终端设备的。由此,终端设备在接收到接入网设备的寻呼消息之后,如果有下行数据需要接收或者上行数据需要发送,终端设备可以接收完下行数据或发送完上行数据之后再进入睡眠状态,提高用户的体验。
