Description

通信处理方法和设备
本申请要求于2017年02月03日提交中国专利局、申请号为201710063722.5、申请名称为“通信处理方法和设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术,尤其涉及一种通信处理方法和设备。
背景技术
随着通信技术的不断发展,第五代移动通信技术(5th-Generation,5G)已经开始研究及标准化工作。相对于传统无线网络来说,5G技术需要支持高达10G的下行速率,5G技术使用的频谱范围非常广,例如从低于6GHz的频段到100GHz的频段,从而高频技术是5G必然要考虑的问题。在高频信号的传输中,高频信号易受到传输条件的影响,进而导致高频信号的质量会很差,为了增强高频信号,一般采用波束赋形(beam forming)技术通过增益天线去提升高频信号传输的性能。
现有技术中,会在每一个小区可以包含多个传输接收点(Transport receive point,TRP),每一个TRP下会形成多个波束(beam),通过beam去向小区中的终端设备发送数据。在网络设备需要向终端设备发送下行数据的时候,针对于处于空闲(idle)态、非活动(inactive)状态的终端设备,由于网络设备不知道终端设备的具体位置,此时,会对idle态、inactive状态的终端设备配置一个跟踪区域,这个跟踪区域所涵盖的范围很大,在该跟踪区域中会具有很多的小区,然后,网络设备会在处于该跟踪区域内的各小区的各TRP下发送的各beam中都分别携带一个呼叫(paging)消息,在终端设备接收到paging消息之后,终端设备会通过随机接入的方式接入到网络设备中,然后网络设备就获取到了终端设备的具体位置,即获取到了终端设备处于哪个小区中。
然而现有技术中,为终端设备配置的跟踪区域所涵盖的范围很大,需要通过处于该跟踪区域内的各小区下的各TRP去发送paging消息,进而需要发送paging消息的小区非常多,而且会在每一个TRP发送的每一个beam上进行一次paging消息的传输,从而会导致paging消息的信令开销非常大,造成通信资源的浪费。

图1为本申请实施例提供的一种应用场景示意图一。如图1所示的组网架构,主要包括网络设备和终端设备。网络设备可以使用相对较高的频率的毫米波频段与终端设备通信,毫米波频段通常为大于6GHz以上的频段,例如,28GHz,38GHz,或覆盖面积较小的数据平面的增强带宽(Enhanceed Band,E-band)频段;网络设备也可以使用相对较低的频率的频段与终端设备通信,低频频段通常为小于6GHz的频段。网络设备覆盖下的终端设备可以使用频率较高的毫米波频段与网络设备通信;或者,网络设备覆盖下的终端设备可以使用频率较低的毫米波频段与网络设备通信。

本申请的各实施例涉及随机接入过程,在现有技术中,终端设备与网络设备进行随机接入过程的过程为:终端设备向网络设备发送消息1,消息1为前导符(Preamble),Preamble是接入信道的前导码;网络设备向终端设备返回消息2,消息2为随机接入响应消息;终端设备向网络设备发送消息3,其中,一般情况下,消息3是无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)类型的消息,但是由媒体介入控制层(Media Access Control,MAC)发起的时候消息3不是RRC类型的消息,例如,消息3中可以包括RRC消息,如service request、resume request,或者MAC层发起的随机接入;网络设备向终端设备返回消息4,消息4为竞争解决消息;终端设备就可以根据该竞争解决消息确定当前的随机接入过程竞争成功。在两步随机接入过程中,终端设备向网络设备发送消息1和消息3,消息1为前导符Preamble;网络设备向终端设备返回消息2和消息4,消息2为随机接入响应消息,消息4为竞争解决消息。
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种应用场景示意图二,如图2所示,网络设备01、网络设备02下具有至少一个小区,终端设备05会从第一小区03移动到第二小区04中。其中,图2中的网络设备01、网络设备02可以为微网络设备,所涵盖的地理范围较小。
图3为本申请实施例提供的一种小区架构的场景示意图,如图3所示,设置了小区组Cell group,在一个小区组Cell group中可以包括至少一个小区,例如在第一小区组Cell group1中包括了三个小区Cell1、Cell2、Cell3,在第二小区组Cell group2中包 括了三个小区Cell4、Cell5、Cell6,在每一个小区组中的各小区可以有位于高频网络设备下的小区,即高频小区,该高频小区中传输高频的网络信号,在每一个小区组中的各小区也可以有位于低频网络设备下的小区,即低频小区,该低频小区中传输低频的网络信号。图4为本申请实施例提供的一种通信处理方法的流程示意图。如图4所示,该方法包括:
S101、终端设备在从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,确定第二小区是否与第一小区属于相同的小区组,小区组中包含至少一个小区;
S102、若第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备进行位置更新。
其中,S102,具体包括:若第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新请求信息,以使网络设备确定新的小区组;终端设备接收网络设备发送的新的小区组,并将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组。
在本实施例中,终端设备在网络中具有几种状态,针对于处于idle态、inactive状态的终端设备,网络设备不知道终端设备的具体位置。终端设备从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,由于终端设备已经获知第一小区所归属的小区组、及第一小区所归属的小区组下具有的各小区,终端设备可以去判断第二小区与第一小区是否归属于相同的小区组;终端设备若确定第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备就可以去进行位置更新;终端设备若确定第二小区与第一小区属于相同的小区组,则终端设备就不需要进行位置更新。
例如,终端设备从第一小区Cell1移动到第二小区Cell4之后,在终端设备中配置有小区组Cell group1,在小区组Cell group1中包括了小区Cell1、小区Cell2、小区Cell3;终端设备检测当前的第二小区Cell4不属于小区组Cell group1,即第二小区Cell4与第一小区Cell1属于不同的小区组,从而终端设备就可以发起位置更新。
其中,终端设备进行位置更新的具体过程为:终端设备向网络设备发送一个位置更新请求信息;网络设备接收终端设备发送的位置更新请求信息,网络设备根据该位置更新请求信息,动态的确定出一个适应于当前终端设备的新的小区组,其中,新的小区组为包含第二小区的一组小区列表,在该小组列表中还可以包含与第二小区相邻的一个或多个相邻小区,然后网络设备将该新的小区组发送给终端设备;终端设备接收网络设备发送的新的小区组,然后终端设备将当前的小区组更新为该新的小区组。
例如,终端设备从第一小区Cell1移动到第二小区Cell4之后,终端设备检测出第二小区Cell4与第一小区Cell1属于不同的小区组,从而终端设备向网络设备发送一个位置更新请求信息,然后网络设备就可以为终端设备动态的配置出一个小区组Cell group2,网络设备可以根据实际情况设置小区组Cell group2包括了小区Cell4、小区Cell5、小区Cell6;网络设备将该小区组Cell group2发送给终端设备,终端设备将该小区组Cell group2配置到终端设备的网络配置信息中。
并且,图4提供的一种通信处理方法在具体实施的时候,具有三种实施方式,第一种实施方式为在终端设备进行随机接入过程中的时候进行位置更新,第二种实施方式为终端设备进行两步随机接入过程中的时候进行位置更新,第三种实施方式为终端设备进行随机接入过程之后进行位置更新。
第一种实施方式:
图5为本申请实施例提供的一种通信处理方法的信令图一,用于实现终端设备进行随机接入过程中的时候进行位置更新。如图5所示,该方法包括:
S11、终端设备在从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,若确定第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备向网络设备发送随机接入过程中的前导符;
S12、网络设备向终端设备发送随机接入响应消息;
S13、终端设备向网络设备发送随机接入过程中的消息3,消息3中包括位置更新请求信息;
S14、网络设备向终端设备发送随机接入过程中的消息4,消息4中包括新的小区组;
S15、终端设备将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组;
S16、终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息。
这里,终端设备检测出终端设备当前所处的第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组的时候,终端设备向网络设备发送前导符Preamble。网络设备接收终端设备发送的Preamble,此时网络设备检测到该Preamble,网络设备就可以向终端设备发送一个随机接入响应消息(Random Access Response,RAR),其中,随机接入响应消息包括定时了调整TA以及为消息3分配的上行调度资源(UL grant)。终端设备接收到随机接入响应消息之后,在消息3中添加一个位置更新请求信息,从而消息3中包括了位置更新请求信息、终端设备的标识(Identity,ID),然后终端设备就可以依据随机接入响应消息中的UL grant,将消息3发送给网络设备;其中,终端设备的ID可以是网络设备为终端设备分配的在通知区域内的有效ID或者临时移动用户身份(S-Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity,S-TMSI),也可以是无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)的有效ID和S-TMSI。网络设备接收到消息3之后,网络设备依据位置更新请求信息为终端设备重新确定一个新的小区组,在这个新的小区组中包括了第二小区,然后网络设备向终端设备发送消息4,在消息4中携带了新的小区组、竞争解决消息、UL grant,其中,UL grant用于位置更新完成消息的传输,竞争解决消息用于终端设备确定当前的随机接入过程竞争成功。然后,终端设备接收到消息4之后,根据消息4中的新的小区组,将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组,进而在随机接入的过程中完成了位置更新,并且,终端设备根据竞争解决消息确定随机接入过程竞争成功。然后,终端设备可以使用消息4中的UL grant向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息,或者,终端设备通过物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)调度的资源向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息,其中,位置更新完成消息是否发送给网络设备取决于第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)协议的定义。如果,终端设备依据消息4确定随机接入过程竞争失败,需要重复步骤S11-S15,以实现随机接入竞争成功。
第二种实施方式:
图6本申请实施例提供的一种通信处理方法的信令图二,用于实现终端设备进行两步随机接入过程中的时候进行位置更新。如图6所示,该方法包括:
S21、终端设备在从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,确定第二小区与第一小区是否属于相同的小区组;
S22、若确定第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备向网络设备发送随机接入过程中的消息1;其中,消息1中包括前导符,前导符用于表示位置更新请求信息,或者,消息1中包括前导符和位置更新请求信息;
S23、网络设备向终端设备发送随机接入过程中的消息2,消息2中包括新的小区组;
S24、终端设备将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组;
S25、终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息。
这里,终端设备检测出终端设备当前所处的第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组的时候,终端设备向网络设备发送消息1,可以在消息1中同时携带了用于随机接入的前导符Preamble、以及位置更新请求信息,也可以在消息1中携带用于表示位置更新请求信息的前导符Preamble。其中,用于表示位置更新请求信息的前导符Preamble,是专用的前导符,仅用于表示位置更新请求信息,此时,专用的前导符的个数可以是一个或多个。网络设备接收终端设备发送的消息1,然后,网络设备就可以依据位置更新请求信息为终端设备重新确定一个新的小区组,在这个新的小区组中包括了第二小区。然后,网络设备向终端设备发送消息2,在消息2中携带了新的小区组、调整TA、UL grant、竞争解决消息,其中,UL grant用于位置更新完成消息的传输,竞争解决消息用于终端设备确定当前的随机接入过程竞争成功。终端设备接收到消息2之后,根据消息2中的新的小区组,将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组,进而在两步随机接入的过程中完成了位置更新,并且,终端设备根据竞争解决消息确定随机接入过程竞争成功。然后,终端设备可以使用消息2中的UL grant向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息,或者,终端设备通过PDCCH调度的资源向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息。如果,终端设备依据消息2确定随机接入过程竞争失败,需要重复步骤S22-S25,以实现随机接入竞争成功。
第三种实施方式:
图7本申请实施例提供的一种通信处理方法的信令图三,用于实现终端设备进行随机接入过程之后进行位置更新。如图7所示,该方法包括:
S31、终端设备在从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,若确定第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备向网络设备发送随机接入过程中的前导符;
S32、网络设备向终端设备发送随机接入响应消息;
S33、终端设备向网络设备发送随机接入过程中的消息3;
S34、网络设备向终端设备发送随机接入过程中的消息4;
S35、终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新请求消息,位置更新请求消息中包括位置更新请求信息;
S36、网络设备向终端设备发送位置更新响应消息,位置更新响应消息中包含新的小区组;
S37、终端设备将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组;
S38、终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息。
这里,终端设备检测出终端设备当前所处的第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组的时候,终端设备向网络设备发送前导符Preamble。网络设备接收终端设备发送的 Preamble,此时网络设备检测到该Preamble,网络设备就可以向终端设备发送一个随机接入响应消息,其中,随机接入响应消息包括定时了调整TA以及为消息3分配的UL grant。终端设备接收到随机接入响应消息之后,依据随机接入响应消息中的UL grant,将携带了终端设备的ID的消息3发送给网络设备。网络设备接收到消息3之后,网络设备向终端设备发送消息4,在消息4中携带了竞争解决消息、UL grant,其中,UL grant用于位置更新请求消息的传输,竞争解决消息用于终端设备确定当前的随机接入过程竞争成功。终端设备根据竞争解决消息确定随机接入过程竞争成功,然后,终端设备向网络设备发送携带了位置更新请求信息的位置更新请求消息。网络设备依据位置更新请求信息为终端设备重新确定一个新的小区组,在这个新的小区组中包括了第二小区,然后网络设备向终端设备发送位置更新响应消息,在位置更新响应消息中携带了新的小区组。然后,终端设备接收到位置更新响应消息之后,根据位置更新响应消息中的新的小区组,将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组,进而在随机接入的过程之后完成了位置更新。然后,终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新完成消息。如果,终端设备依据消息4确定随机接入过程竞争失败,需要重复步骤S31-S37,以实现随机接入竞争成功以及位置更新成功。
本实施例,通过终端设备在从第一小区移动到第二小区之后,若确定第二小区与第一小区属于不同的小区组,则终端设备向网络设备发送位置更新请求信息,使得网络设备确定并返回新的小区组,终端设备将当前的小区组更新为新的小区组。从而网络设备可以获知到终端设备所在小区组,进而网络设备向终端设备发送下行数据的时候,网络设备只需要向终端设备所在的小区组所涵盖的范围内去发送Paging消息,缩小了需要发送Paging消息的范围,进而减少了paging消息的信令开销,节约了通信资源。
图8示出了本申请实施例提供的又一种应用场景示意图,如图8所示,在5G中,一个网络设备可以是宏网络设备,该宏网络设备所涵盖的小区的地理范围较大,在该宏网络设备的一个小区中可以包括很多的TRP,且这些TRP对终端设备是透明的,那么当处于idle态、inactive状态的终端设备在小区中移动的时候,网络设备不知道终端设备当前处于哪些TRP下。此时,现有的方式也是通过该小区的各TRP去发送paging消息,进而发送paging消息的TRP的个数很多,发送paging消息的范围较大,从而同样的造成的paging消息量也会很大,导致paging消息的信令开销非常大,造成通信资源的浪费。针对于宏网络设备,可以采用本实施例提供的方法进行解决。
图9为本申请实施例提供的又一种通信处理方法的流程示意图。如图9所示,在图4所示的实施例的基础上,该方法包括:
S201、终端设备获取网络设备为终端设备配置的周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息;
S202、终端设备启动周期性位置更新定时器,在确定周期性位置更新定时器超期时,向网络设备发送终端设备的位置信息。
在本实施例中,终端设备从微网络设备进入到宏网络设备的时候,由于网络设备可以为终端设备配置一个周期性位置更新定时器,终端设备可以去向网络设备获取该 周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息。
其中,获取该周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息的方式有以下三种:
第一种实施方式:终端设备接收网络设备发送的系统消息,其中,系统消息中包括周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息。
第二种实施方式:终端设备接收网络设备在随机接入过程中发送的周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息。
第三种实施方式:终端设备接收网络设备在随机接入过程之后发送的周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息。
从而采用系统消息广播的方式、或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)配置的方式,为终端设备配置一个周期性位置更新定时器。
然后,终端设备接收到该周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息,根据该配置信息在终端设备中配置并启动周期性位置更新定时器;然后终端设备在确定周期性位置更新定时器超期的时候,终端设备向网络设备发送位置信息。此后,终端设备在该宏网络设备内就不需要再接收周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息,只需要根据该周期性位置更新定时器的定时,周期性的向网络设备发送位置信息。
并且,本实施例的实施不依懒于图4所示的实施例是否实施,本实施例可以独立实施。
下面给出了获取该周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息的三种实施方式的信令图。
第一种实施方式:
图10为本申请实施例提供的又一种通信处理方法的信令图一,用于实现终端设备根据网络设备的系统消息获取周期性位置更新定时器的配置信息。如图10所示,该方法包括:

图14示出了本申请实施例提供的另一种应用场景示意图,如图14所示,针对终端设备当前处于空闲态,并且从一个小区切换另一个小区的时候,可以采用本实施例提供的方法进行解决。

其中,在终端设备从当前驻留的低频小区移动并确定驻留到高频小区的情况下,本实施例中的网络设备为高频网络设备,网络设备使用相对较高的频率的毫米波频段与终端设备通信,毫米波频段通常为大于6GHz以上的频段;在终端设备从当前驻留的低频宏小区移动并确定驻留到低频微小区的情况下,本实施例中的网络设备为低频网络设备,网络设备使用相对较低的频率的毫米波频段与终端设备22通信,毫米波频段通常为小于6GHz的频段。
此时,终端设备向网络设备发送状态转换请求信息,网络设备接收该状态转换请求信息,网络设备确定针对该终端设备进行状态转换,并且向终端设备发送状态转换指示信息;其中,状态转换指示信息用于指示终端设备从空闲态转换为非活动状态。然后,终端设备在接收到网络设备发送的状态转换指示信息之后,终端设备确定从空闲态转换为非活动状态,进而完成状态转换。
然后,由于在5G中提出一个新的RRC(Radio Resource Configuration,RRC)状态,即非活动inactive状态,终端设备处于非活动状态的时候,终端设备会定期的向网络设备发送一个上行信号,在该上行信号中隐含了终端设备的位置信息。从而网络设备可以随时的获知终端设备的位置,当网络设备需要向终端设备发送下行数据的时候,由于网络设备知道终端设备的具体位置,网络设备可以直接向终端设备发送下行数据。
