However, in practice, it has been found that in cellular network-based D2D communication, D2D communication is often not normally performed between devices.

Summary of the invention

detailed description

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

In order to facilitate the understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, the existing cellular network-based D2D communication system is further analyzed.

In an existing cellular network-based D2D communication system, a device that is within the signal coverage of the base station needs to perform time synchronization with the base station to ensure that the device within the signal coverage of the base station performs normal communication with other devices. That is, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, devices V1 and V2 need to maintain the same time as the base station, and devices V1 and V2 can communicate normally normally, and devices V1 and V2 need to be. Keeping at the same time as the base station can communicate directly with device V3.

For example, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, the time of the device V1 and the device V2 is synchronized with the base station, and the time of the base station, the device V1, and the device V2 is both t1. Before the device V1 sends the information to the device V2, the base station needs to allocate the transmission resource to the device V1. If the transmission resource allocated by the base station for the device V1 is that the device V1 sends data of 1 ms (milliseconds) to the device V2 at t1, the device V1 will be from the t1. Start sending 1ms of data to device V2. Accordingly, the device V2 determines the data of 1 ms received from t1 as the data transmitted by the device V1.

For example, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, if the time of the device V1 and the base station is not synchronized, the time of the base station is t1, the time of the device V1 is t2, the time of the device V2 is t1, and the time of the device V3 is T1. T2 is delayed by 1 ms from t1, and the base station designating device V1 transmits data to the device 3 at t1. Since the time of the device V1 is delayed by 1 ms from the time of the base station, the device V1 transmits data to V3 at the time when the time of the base station is "t1 plus 1 ms". If the base station designation device V2 transmits data to the device V3 at the time of "t1 plus 1 ms", the device V2 transmits data to V2 when the time of the base station is "t1 plus 1 ms". Therefore, the device V3 receives the data transmitted by the device V1 and the device V2 at the same time "t1 plus 1 ms". Since device V1 and device V2 use the same frequency to transmit data to device V3, device V3 will not be able to tell which data was sent by device V1 and which data was sent by device V2. Therefore, the device in the signal coverage of the base station needs time synchronization with the base station to ensure that the device in the signal coverage of the base station performs normal communication with other devices.

In the existing practical application, after the device V1 enters the signal coverage of the base station, the synchronization signal sent by the base station can be detected. If the synchronization time corresponding to the synchronization signal sent by the base station is t1, the device V1 receives the synchronization signal and then takes the time. Set to t1. The device V1 directly uses the synchronization time t1 as the downlink synchronization time, and transmits a signal to the device V2 (or the device V3) or the signal transmitted by the device V2 (or the device V3) based on the downlink synchronization time. Correspondingly, the device V1 sends a signal to the base station based on the uplink synchronization time. The uplink synchronization time and the downlink synchronization time may be different or the same. However, the base station and the device V1 have a radio wave transmission delay (for example, if the base station sends a synchronization signal to the device V1 and takes 1 ms, the radio wave transmission delay is 1 ms), so when the device V1 sets the time of the device V1 to t1, the base station The time is "t1 plus 1ms". The farther the distance between the device and the base station is, the greater the delay of the radio wave transmission. Can It can be seen that the synchronization time corresponding to the synchronization signal sent by the base station received by the existing device is not accurate, which causes the D2D communication to be normally not performed between the devices.

In order to solve the problem that the D2D communication cannot be performed normally between the devices, the embodiment of the present invention provides a synchronization time error correction method and device for correcting the error of the synchronization time sent by the base station.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart diagram of a synchronization time error correction method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the synchronization time error correction method may include sections 201-203.

201. The first device receives the time advancement amount TA sent by the base station in a state of performing time synchronization with the base station.

The first device may be a mobile phone, a wearable device (such as a smart watch, etc.), a tablet computer, a personal computer (PC, Personal Computer), a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a car computer, a car, and the like. When the base station is the base station shown in FIG. 1, the first device may be any one of the devices under the signal coverage of the base station shown in FIG. 1. For example, the first device may be device V1 and device V2 shown in FIG. 1.

The function of the TA is to correct the synchronization time to obtain the uplink synchronization time, and the first device sends a signal to the base station based on the synchronization time of the line, that is, when the first device sends a signal to the base station, the delay of the radio wave transmission is compensated. Time sends a signal to the base station. The TA is determined by the base station based on the received measurement report and then transmitted to the first device. In normal communication, when the first device approaches the base station, the base station notifies the first device to decrease the TA; and when the first device moves away from the base station, the base station requests the first device to increase the timing advance.

For example, if the first device is the device V1 shown in FIG. 1, if the time of the base station is t1, and the base station sends the synchronization signal to the device V1 for 1 ms, the time of the base station when the device V1 sets its own time to t1. "T1 plus 1ms". Therefore, the time of the first device is delayed by 1 ms from the time of the base station. If the base station wants to receive the signal sent by the device V1 when "t1 plus 2ms", since the device V1 itself has a delay of 1ms, and the device V1 needs to transmit a signal for 1ms, the device V1 needs to send a signal to the base station 2ms in advance, that is, The device V1 needs to start transmitting signals to the base station when its own time is t1. Among them, TA is the time to send the signal in advance 2ms. The time "t1 plus 2ms" after the TA correction for the time t1 of the device V1 is the uplink synchronization time.

Therefore, 0.5TA is the error of the time of the device V1 and the base station.

202. The first device acquires a synchronization time that is synchronized by the first device and the base station.

In the embodiment of the present invention, for example, when the time of the base station is t1, the base station sends a synchronization signal to the device V1, the device V1 sets its own time to t1, and t1 is the synchronization time of the first device and the base station, that is, the device V1 itself. time.

203. The first device corrects the error of the synchronization time by using 0.5TA.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first device corrects the error of the synchronization time by 0.5TA to obtain a time consistent with the base station.

For example, if the time of the base station is t1, the synchronization time of the device V1 is t2, and the time of 0.5TA is 1 ms, the device V1 adds the synchronization time t2 of the device V1 to 1 ms seconds to obtain the time t1 that is consistent with the base station. This time t1 is the downlink synchronization time obtained after the synchronization time is corrected.

As an optional implementation manner, after the first device corrects the error of the synchronization time by 0.5TA, the signal may be sent to the second device according to the time obtained by correcting the error of the synchronization time. Specifically, the time that the first device determines whether the error of the synchronization time is corrected is the time that the first device sets the signal sent by the first device to the second device; if the error of the synchronization time is corrected, the time is obtained. When the first device configured by the base station sends a signal to the second device, the first device sends a signal to the second device.

For example, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, the time of the base station is t1, the time of the device V1 is t2, and the time of the device V3 is t1. Therefore, the TA transmitted by the base station received by the device V1 is 2 ms. If the transmission resource allocated by the base station to the device V1 is that the device V1 transmits 2 ms of data to the device V3 at t1, the device V1 corrects the error of t2 by 0.5 TA (that is, 1 ms), and the obtained time is "t2 plus 1 ms". If "t2 plus 1ms" is the same as t1, the device V1 starts transmitting 2 ms of data to the device V3 from this point. Accordingly, the device V3 determines the 2 ms data received from t1 as the data transmitted by the device V1.

For example, when the first device is the device V1, the second device may be the device V2 or the device V3. The first device transmits a signal to the second device according to the time after the synchronization time is corrected by 0.5TA. The first device sends a signal to the second device to the base station according to the time after the synchronization time is corrected by the TA.

As an optional implementation manner, after the first device corrects the error of the synchronization time by using 0.5TA, the third device may also receive the time according to the error obtained by correcting the error of the synchronization time. The signal sent. Specifically, the time that the first device determines whether the error of the synchronization time is corrected is the time that the third device sets the signal sent by the third device to the first device; if the error of the synchronization time is corrected, the time obtained is The time when the third device set by the base station sends a signal to the first device, the first device determines that the received signal is a signal sent by the third device.

For example, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, the time of the base station is t1, the time of the device V1 is t2, and the time of the device V3 is t1. Therefore, the TA transmitted by the base station received by the device V1 is 2 ms. If the transmission resource allocated by the base station to the device V3 is that the device V3 transmits data of 2 seconds to the device V1 at t1, the device V1 corrects the error of t2 by 0.5TA (that is, 1 ms), and obtains the time "t2 plus 1 ms" consistent with the base station. . If "t2 plus 1ms" is the same as t1, the device V1 determines that the signal received from this time is the signal transmitted by the device V3.

For example, in the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, the time of the base station is t1, the time of the device V1 is t2, and the time of the device V2 is t3. The TA transmitted by the base station received by the device V1 is 2 ms. The TA transmitted by the base station received by the device V2 is 4 ms. If the transmission resource allocated by the base station to the device V1 is that the device V1 transmits 2 ms of data to the device V2 at t1, the device V1 corrects the error of t2 by 0.5 TA (that is, 1 ms), and obtains the time "t2 plus 1 ms" consistent with the base station. . Correspondingly, the device V2 corrects the error of t3 by 0.5TA (ie, 2ms), and obtains the time "t3 plus 2ms" consistent with the base station. If "t2 plus 1ms" is the same as t1, the device V1 starts transmitting a signal to the device V2 from this point. Similarly, if "t3 plus 2ms" is the same as t1, the device V2 determines the signal received from this time as the signal transmitted by the device V2.

By performing the method described in FIG. 2, in a state in which the first device performs time synchronization with the base station, the first device may correct the synchronization time of the first device and the base station according to the 0.5TA, and obtain a time consistent with the base station, so that Send signals to other devices or receive signals sent by other devices according to the time coincident with the base station. It can be seen that by implementing the method described in FIG. 2, the first device can correct the synchronization time to be consistent with the base station, thereby facilitating successful D2D communication between the devices.

In the existing practical applications, the Internet of Vehicles has attracted more and more people's attention. It can improve the safety of road traffic through D2D communication between vehicles and vehicles, D2D communication between mobile phones and vehicles, or D2D communication between vehicles and roadside units. Reliability, improve traffic efficiency. The traditional car network system has the following Problem: When the number of vehicles in the system is large, resource conflicts are likely to occur, system performance is poor, delay is uncontrollable, quality of service (QoS) cannot be guaranteed, and transmission distance is limited.

The D2D communication technology based on cellular network has the advantages of low delay, large coverage, and support for high-speed mobile terminals. Car-to-vehicle communication in a cellular network can fully utilize the base station for dynamic scheduling of transmission resources, thereby reducing the probability of communication collisions and solving the problem of uncontrollable delay. Therefore, D2D communication technology based on cellular networks is often applied to communication between vehicles and vehicles in a car network system, communication between a mobile phone and a vehicle, or communication between a vehicle and a roadside unit.

In existing practical applications, in a vehicle network using a cellular network-based D2D communication technology, a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is synchronized with a base station, and a vehicle (a mobile device such as a mobile phone) can be associated with a GNSS or a base station. Synchronize. In general, the vehicle can be synchronized with the GNSS first, and then synchronized with the base station when there is no GNSS signal. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, device V1, device V2, and device V3 are devices in a car network. Device V1 and device V2 are within the signal coverage of the base station, and device V1 and device V2 are outside the coverage of the GNSS signal. Device V3 is outside the signal coverage of the base station and is within the coverage of the GNSS signal. Device V1 and device V2 are synchronized with the base station, and device V3 is synchronized with the GNSS. In existing practical applications, the synchronization time of devices synchronized with GNSS is very accurate. Therefore, the time of the base station, the GNSS, and the device V3 can be considered to be the same. When the device V1 and the device V2 are synchronized with the base station, the synchronization signal has a transmission delay, and therefore, the time of the device V1 and the device V2 and the base station has an error. Therefore, there is an abnormality in the D2D communication between the device V1 and the device V2 and the device V3.

Therefore, the synchronization time error correction method described above in FIG. 2 can also be applied to devices in a vehicle network. For example, it can be applied to the device V1, the device V2, and the device V3 described above. Therefore, the first device that executes the synchronization time error correction method described above with reference to FIG. 2 can execute the portions 304 to 306 shown in FIG. 3 before executing the portion 201 except for the portions 201 to 203. The 301-303 part is the same as the part 201-203, and the specific implementation of the 301-303 part can be specifically described in the description of 201-203, and details are not described herein. among them:

304. The first device detects, in a time synchronization with the global satellite navigation system GNSS, whether the number of the searched GNSS satellites is less than a preset number.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the first device is within the signal coverage of the GNSS and the base station, the time synchronization may be preferentially performed with the GNSS. Section 305 is performed when the first device detects that the number of GNSS satellites is less than a preset number. When the first device detects that the number of GNSS satellites is greater than or equal to a preset number, Continue to synchronize time with GNSS and continue to measure whether the number of GNSS satellites searched is less than the preset number.

305. The first device ends the time synchronization with the GNSS and enters a punctual state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after the first device ends the time synchronization with the GNSS, it enters a punctual state, and in the punctual state, the time of the first device itself is considered to be consistent with the time of the GNSS.

306. The first device is in a punctual state, and if the first device is within the signal coverage of the base station, time synchronization is performed with the base station, and the punctual state is ended.

In the embodiment of the present invention, if the first device is in the punctual state, if the synchronization signal of the base station is detected, the first device performs time synchronization with the base station, and ends the punctual state. In the case that the first device does not detect the signal of the base station or the GNSS, the punctual state can be maintained for a preset time, and after maintaining the punctual state of the preset time, the first device cannot communicate with other devices. After the time synchronization between the first device and the base station, if the punctual state is not ended, the first device may not communicate with other devices after a preset time even if time synchronization is performed with the base station.

After the first device performs time synchronization with the base station and enters the RRC CONNECTED state, part 301 can be performed to receive the TA sent by the base station.

It can be seen that by implementing the method described in FIG. 3, D2D communication is normally performed between devices in the vehicle network.

The embodiment of the present invention may divide the functional unit into the first device according to the foregoing method example. For example, each functional unit may be divided according to each function, or two or more functions may be integrated into one unit. The above integrated unit can be implemented in the form of hardware or in the form of a software functional unit. It should be noted that the division of the unit in the embodiment of the present invention is schematic, and is only a logical function division, and the actual implementation may have another division manner.
