Description

切换方法、终端设备和网络设备 技术领域
本申请实施例涉及无线通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种切换方法、终端设备和网络设备。
背景技术
在现有无线通信系统中,远端终端(Remote User Equipment,简称“Remote UE”)例如可穿戴设备可以通过中继终端例如现有普通的手机终端(Relay User Equipment,简称“Relay UE”)进行数据传输。如图1所示,中继终端可以帮助远端终端完成数据传输。并且如图2(a)和图2(b)所示,中继终端与远端终端可能通过同一基站或不同基站建立控制面连接,同时中继终端帮助远端终端完成数据的转发。此时如果中继终端或远端终端发生移动,则会要求基站切换,以保证数据传输的连续性。
但是在实际应用中,中继终端和远端终端很可能处于同一位置例如都在用户身上,此时两者很可能同时进行相同方向相同速度的移动,在移动过程中如果需要进行小区切换,目前通常是基站分别对两个终端设备进行各自的切换,这样,如果两个终端被切换至不同基站覆盖的小区,那么会对中继终端和远端终端之间的中继传输造成很大影响。
发明内容

因此,终端设备通过获取中继终端设备的链路信息和远端终端设备的链路信息,来决策两个终端设备的切换方案,使得两个终端设备进行小区切换 或小区重选后,能够尽可能地位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区中,从而能够在中继终端和远端终端进行小区切换后,使中继终端和远端终端之间继续进行有效地中继传输。
并且,由于第一切换方案和第二切换方案是由终端设备来确定的,这样,在终端设备处于非激活状态或者空闲状态时,终端设备可以不通过网络设备,而是自行确定切换方案,以更好地保证终端设备之间的业务的连续性。
由于综合考虑多条链路的测量结果,因而第一网络设备可以尽量为第一终端设备和第二终端设备选择相同网络设备覆盖的小区作为待切换的小区或者重选的待接入的小区。例如,如果第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间存在业务数据交互,那么当这两个终端设备移动过程需要进行小区切换时,第一网络设备在确定第一切换方案和第二切换方案时会根据两个终端设备各自的链路测量结果,尽可能地为第一终端设备和第二终端设备选择相同网络设备覆盖的小区作为待切换的小区,以保证终端设备的业务连续性,尽管切换后信号强度并非是最优的。

具体实施方式
下面将结合附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。
应理解,本申请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“GSM”)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,简称“CDMA”)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,简称“WCDMA”)系统、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,简称“LTE”)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,简称“FDD”)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,简称“TDD”)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,简称“UMTS”)、以及未来的5G通信系统等。
本申请结合终端设备描述了各个实施例。终端设备也可以指用户设备(User Equipment,简称“UE”)、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。接入终端可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,简称“SIP”)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,简称“WLL”)站、个人数字处理(Personal Digital Assistant,简称 “PDA”)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备,未来5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的陆上公用移动通信网(Public Land Mobile Network,简称“PLMN”)网络中的终端设备等。
本申请结合网络设备描述了各个实施例。网络设备可以是用于与终端设备进行通信的设备,例如,可以是GSM系统或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,简称“BTS”),也可以是WCDMA系统中的基站(NodeB,简称“NB”),还可以是LTE系统中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,简称“eNB”或“eNodeB”),或者该网络设备可以为中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的网络侧设备或未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络侧设备等。
图3是本申请实施例的一个应用场景的示意图。图3中的通信系统可以包括网络设备10、网络设备20、终端设备30和终端设备40。网络设备10用于为终端设备30和终端设备40提供通信服务,终端设备40为远端终端设备例如手表,终端设备30为中继终端设备例如手机,终端设备40可以通过终端设备30与网络设备10之间进行数据传输。终端设备30和终端设备40如果处于同一位置例如都在用户身上,此时两个终端设备会同时进行相同方向相同速度的移动,在移动过程中如果需要进行小区切换,如果两个终端设备被切换至不同网络设备覆盖的小区,那么会对中继终端和远端终端之间的中继传输造成很大影响。因此,在两个终端设备移动过程中进行小区切换时,希望能够是终端设备30和终端设备40被切换至相同网络设备覆盖的小区,如图3所示,终端设备30和终端设备40由网络设备10被切换至网络设备20覆盖的小区中,这时终端设备和终端设备40可以有效地进行正常中继传输。图3中所示出的箭头可以表示通过终端设备20与网络设备10之间的蜂窝链路进行的上/下行传输。
本申请实施例中的网络可以是指公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,简称“PLMN”)或者设备对设备(Device to Device,简称“D2D”)网络或者机器对机器/人(Machine to Machine/Man,简称“M2M”)网络或者其他网络,图3只是举例的简化示意图,网络中还可以包括其他终端设备,图3中未予以画出。
图4是本申请实施例的切换方法400的示意性流程图。该方法可以由第 一终端设备执行,该第一终端设备可以是中继终端设备例如图3中的终端设备30或者是远端终端设备例如图3中的终端设备40。如图4所示,该切换方法包括:
在410中,第一终端设备获取链路的测量结果,该链路包括第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路,以及第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路。
在420中,第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案。
可选地,第一终端设备与第二终端设备中的至少一个终端设备处于非激活状态或者空闲状态。
可选地,第一终端设备为中继终端设备,第二终端设备为远端终端设备,或者第一终端设备为远端终端设备,第二终端设备为中继终端设备。
可选地,该方法还包括:第一终端设备在确定第一切换方案后,执行该第一切换方案。
具体来说,第一终端设备和第二终端设备在进行小区切换时,第一终端设备可以获取第一网络设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,这些链路的测量结果能够用于为第一终端设备确定第一切换方案,以及为第二终端设备确定第二切换方案。由于第一终端设备同时获取第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第二终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,因而第一终端设备在为第一终端设备和第二终端设备确定各自的切换方案时,可以综合考虑多条链路的测量结果,尽可能地为第一终端设备和第二终端设备选择相同网络设备覆盖的小区作为待切换的小区或者重选的待接入的小区。
例如,如果第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间存在业务数据交互,那么当这两个终端设备移动过程需要进行小区切换时,第一网络设备在确定第一切换方案和第二切换方案时会根据两个终端设备各自的链路测量结果,尽可能地为第一终端设备和第二终端设备选择相同网络设备覆盖的小区作为待切换的小区,以保证终端设备的业务连续性,尽管切换后信号强度并非是最优的。
而且,该实施例中,第一切换方案和第二切换方案是由第一终端设备确 定的,这样,在第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备处于非激活状态或者空闲状态时,终端设备可以不通过网络设备,而是自行确定切换方案,以更好地保证终端设备之间的业务的连续性。
这里,第一终端设备可以确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案,并确定第二终端设备的第二切换方案;第一终端设备也可以只确定第一切换方案,而第二切换方案由第二终端设备自己确定。
如果第一终端设备为第二终端设备确定了第二切换方案,可选地,该方法还包括:第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送切换命令,该切换命令用于指示第二终端设备执行该第二切换方案。
可选地,第一终端设备获取的链路的测量结果,还可以包括第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果。
也就是说,第一终端设备不仅可以获取第一网络设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,还可以获取第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,并综合考虑这三条链路的测量结果,来确定第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案。由于考虑了两个终端设备之间的链路情况,从而使两个终端设备尽可能地切换至相同网络设备覆盖的小区中。
可选地,该链路的测量结果包括该链路的链路质量的测量结果,和/或该链路的链路状态的测量结果。
由于第一终端设备可以确定第一终端设备的链路的测量结果,即第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,而第二终端设备可以确定第二终端设备的链路的测量结果,即第二终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第二终端设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果。因此,可选地,在410中,第一终端设备获取链路的测量结果,包括:第一终端设备确定第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,并接收第二终端设备发送的第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果。
进一步地,第一终端设备获取链路的测量结果,还可以包括:第一终端设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果;或者第一终端设备接收第二终端设备发送的第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果。
其中,可选地,第一终端设备获取链路的测量结果,包括:该第一终端设备获取第二终端设备发送的承载在适配层或直连接口协议栈PC5中的链路的测量结果。
即第一终端设备、第二终端设备和第一网络设备之间的测量结果等交互的信息,可以承载在适配层中或者承载在现有的直连接口协议栈PC5的信令或数据中。
可选地,在410中,第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案,包括:第一终端设备根据第一终端设备和第二终端设备所处的状态,以及该测量结果,确定该第一切换方案和/或该第二切换方案。
其中,可选地,若第一终端设备处于连接状态,该第一切换方案包括第一终端设备由第一网络设备覆盖的小区切换至第二网络设备覆盖的小区,或者第一终端设备不进行小区切换;
若第一终端设备处于非激活状态或空闲状态,该第一切换方案包括第一终端设备重选第二网络设备覆盖的小区作为待接入的小区,或者第一终端设备不进行小区重选;
若第二终端设备处于连接状态,该第二切换方案包括第二终端设备由第一网络设备覆盖的小区切换至第二网络设备覆盖的小区或其他网络设备覆盖的小区,或者第二终端设备不进行小区切换;
若第二终端设备处于非激活状态或空闲状态,该第二切换方案包括第二终端设备重选第二网络设备覆盖的小区或其他网络设备覆盖的小区作为待接入的小区,或者第二终端设备不进行小区重选。
这里,若第一切换方案使得第一终端设备切换或重选至第二终端设备覆盖的小区中,那么第二切换方案可以使得第二终端设备切换或重选至与第一终端设备相同的网络设备即第二网络设备覆盖的小区中,但是在信号强度条件不允许的情况下,或者第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间不需要保持链路连接、不应该保持链路连接或者不适合再继续保持链路连接时,第二终端设备也可以切换至其他网络设备覆盖的小区中或者重选其他网络设备覆盖的小区作为待接入的小区。
可选地,第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案,包括:第一终端设备根据该测量结 果,确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间是否保持链路连接;第一终端设备根据第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间是否保持链路连接,确定该第一切换方案和/或该第二切换方案。
进一步地,若第一终端设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间保持链路连接,则第一终端设备执行该第一切换方案且第二终端设备执行该第二切换方案后,第一终端设备和第二终端设备位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区。
具体来说,若第一网络设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间保持链路连接,例如,第一网络设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间应该保持链路连接,或者需要继续保持链路连接时,第一网络设备确定的第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案,会使得第一终端设备执行第一切换方案且第二终端设备执行第二切换方案后,第一终端设备和第二终端设备位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区。
若第一网络设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间不保持链路连接,例如第一网络设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间不应该继续保持链路连接,或者不需要继续保持链路连接,或者信号强度无法满足第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路要求,那么第一网络设备确定的第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案,可以使第一终端设备执行第一切换方案且第二终端设备执行第二切换方案后,第一终端设备和第二终端设备位于相同或者不同网络设备覆盖的小区。
可选地,若第一终端设备确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备之间不保持链路连接,该方法还包括:第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送释放指示信息,该释放指示信息用于指示第二终端设备释放与第一终端设备之间的链路连接。
可选地,在420之前,即,在第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案之前,该方法还包括:第一终端设备获取第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的关联信息,该关联信息包括第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的配对关系或连接关系。
其中,第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案,包括:第一终端设备根据该关联信息和该测量结果,确定该第一切换方案和/或该第二切换方案。
具体来说,第一终端设备还可以根据第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间 的配对关系或连接关系,以及链路的测量结果,来共同确定第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案。例如,如果第一终端设备与第二终端设备处于连接关系,还存在数据交互,那么在确定第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案时,第一终端设备会根据链路的测量结果,尽可能地为第一终端设备和第二终端设备选择相同网络设备覆盖的小区作为待切换的小区或者重选的待接入的小区,尽管切换后信号强度并非是最优的。
可选地,若第一终端设备处于连接状态,该方法还包括:第一终端设备向第一网络设备发送切换信息,该切换信息包括以下信息中的至少一种:该第一切换方案的信息、该第二切换方案的信息和链路的测量结果。
具体来说,第一终端设备确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案后,还可以将第一切换方案和第二切换方案上报给第一网络设备,以使得第一网络设备对第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案进行确认,确定第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备是否能够执行自己的切换方案从而切换到合适的网络下。该第一切换方案的信息中可以包括第一终端设备待切换的小区或者重选的小区的信息(即第一终端设备倾向的切换小区或重选小区),该第二切换方案的信息中可以包括第二终端设备待切换的小区或者重选的小区的信息(即第二终端设备倾向的切换小区或重选小区)。
举例来说,第一终端设备确定的第一切换方案包括第一终端设备切换至第二网络设备覆盖的小区中,第一终端设备可以将该第一切换方案的信息和链路的测量结果发送给第一网络设备。第一网络设备可以根据接收到的测量信息和第一切换方案的信息,确定第一终端设备选择切换至第二网络设备覆盖的小区中是否合适。
进一步地,可选地,在第一终端设备根据该测量结果,确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案和/或第二终端设备的第二切换方案之前,该方法还包括:第一终端设备接收该网络设备发送的配置信息,该配置信息用于指示第一终端设备优先发送第一终端设备待切换的小区的信息,该待切换的小区使得第一终端设备与第二终端设备满足信号强度条件且位于同一网络设备覆盖的小区。
也就是说,第一终端设备可以向第一网络设备发送第一切换方案的信息即第一终端设备待切换的小区的信息,还可以同时向第一网络设备发送第一终端设备所测量的所有小区的信息,但是,终端设备在进行上报时,会优先 向第一网络设备上报第一终端设备待切换的小区的信息,其中,第一终端设备待切换的小区为:能够使第一终端设备与第二终端设备既满足切换信号强度条件且位于同一网络的小区。
举例来说,假设第一终端设备获取了第一终端设备、第二终端设备以及第二网络设备中两两相互之间的链路的测量结果,还获取了第一终端设备、第二终端设备以及第三网络设备中两两相互之间的链路的测量结果。如果第一终端设备根据获取的这些测量结果确定的第一切换方案为:第一终端设备切换至第二网络设备覆盖下的A小区,那么由于第一切换方案中的A小区为最优的切换小区(即能够使第一终端设备与第二终端设备既满足切换信号强度条件且位于同一网络覆盖下的小区),第一终端设备会优先将第一切换方案的信息(即A小区的信息)发送给第一网络设备,之后才会将第三网络设备覆盖下的小区的信息,以及第二网络设备覆盖下的除A小区之外的其他小区的信息发送给第一网络设备。从而第一网络设备可以根据接收到的这些信息,来对该第一切换方案进行确认,以确定该第一切换方案是否合适。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备通过获取中继终端设备的链路信息和远端终端设备的链路信息,来决策两个终端设备的切换方案,使得两个终端设备进行小区切换或小区重选后,能够尽可能地位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区中,从而能够在中继终端和远端终端进行小区切换后,使中继终端和远端终端之间继续进行有效地中继传输。
并且,由于第一切换方案和第二切换方案是由终端设备来确定的,这样,在终端设备处于非激活状态或者空闲状态时,终端设备可以不通过网络设备,而是自行确定切换方案,以更好地保证终端设备之间的业务的连续性。

在530中,第二终端设备接收第一终端设备发送的切换命令,并根据该 切换命令,执行该第二切换方案。
可选地,第一终端设备为中继终端设备,第二终端设备为远端终端设备,或者第一终端设备为远端终端设备,第二终端设备为中继终端设备。
具体来说,第二终端设备在进行小区切换时,第二终端设备获取第二终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,并将该测量结果发送给第一终端设备,从而第一终端设备根据第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一网络设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,为第二终端设备确定第二切换方案,或者还可以确定自己的第一切换方案。由于第一终端设备同时获取第二终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,因而第一终端设备为第二终端设备确定切换方案时,可以综合考虑多条链路的测量结果,尽可能地为第二终端设备选择与第一终端设备相同的网络设备覆盖的小区,作为其重选的待接入的小区。
可选地,第二终端设备获取的链路的测量结果,还可以包括第二终端设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果。
也就是说,第一终端设备可以确定第一网络设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,并接收第二终端设备发送的第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,从而综合考虑这三条链路的测量结果,来确定第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案。由于考虑了两个终端设备之间的链路情况,从而使两个终端设备尽可能地切换至相同网络设备覆盖的小区中。当然,第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果也可以由第一终端设备自己确定。
可选地,该链路的测量结果包括该链路的链路质量的测量结果,和/或该链路的链路状态的测量结果。

即第一终端设备、第二终端设备和第一网络设备之间的测量结果等交互的信息,可以承载在适配层中或者承载在现有的直连接口协议栈PC5的信令或数据中。
可选地,若第一终端设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间保持链路连接,则第二终端设备执行该第二切换方案后,第二终端设备和第一终端设备位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区。
具体来说,第一终端设备可以根据链路的测量结果,确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间是否保持链路连接,若第一终端设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间保持链路连接,例如第一网络设备确定第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间应该保持链路连接,或者需要继续保持链路连接时,第一终端设备确定的第二切换方案,会使得第二终端设备执行该第二切换方案后,第二终端设备和执行第一切换方案后的第一终端设备位于相同网络设备覆盖的小区。

并且,由于第一切换方案和第二切换方案是由终端设备来确定的,这样,在终端设备处于非激活状态或者空闲状态时,终端设备可以不通过网络设备,而是自行确定切换方案,以更好地保证终端设备之间的业务的连续性。
图6是本申请实施例的切换方法600的示意性流程图。该方法可以由第二网络设备例如图3中的网络设备10来执行。如图6所示,该切换方法包括:
在610中,第一网络设备接收第一终端设备发送的切换信息,该切换信息包括以下信息中的至少一种:第一终端设备确定的第一终端设备的第一切换方案、第二终端设备的第二切换方案和链路的测量结果,该链路包括第一终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路,以及第二终端设备与第一网络设备之间的链路。

可选地,第一终端设备为中继终端设备,第二终端设备为远端终端设备,或者第一终端设备为远端终端设备,第二终端设备为中继终端设备。
具体来说,第一终端设备和第二终端设备在进行小区切换时,第一终端设备可以获取第一网络设备与第一终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,以及第一网络设备与第二终端设备之间的链路的测量结果,第一终端设备可以根据这些链路的测量结果确定第一终端设备的第一切换方案,并确定第二终端设备的第二切换方案。这时,第一终端设备还可以将该第一切换方案、第二切换方案、和链路的测量结果中的至少一项发送给第一网络设备,第一网络设备根据接收到的这些切换信息,对该第一切换方案和/或该第二切换方案进行确认,以确定该第一切换方案和/或第二切换方案是否为最优的切换方案,即确定第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备是否能够执行自己的切换方案从而切换到合适的网络下或者重选到合适的网络作为待接入的网络。

也就是说,第一终端设备可以向第一网络设备发送第一切换方案的信息即第一终端设备待切换的小区的信息,还可以同时向第一网络设备发送第一终端设备所测量的所有小区的信息,但是,终端设备在进行上报时,会优先向第一网络设备上报第一终端设备待切换的小区的信息,其中,第一终端设备待切换的小区为:能够使第一终端设备与第二终端设备既满足切换信号强度条件且位于同一网络的小区。
例如,假设第一终端设备获取了第一终端设备、第二终端设备以及第二网络设备之间的链路的测量结果,还获取了第一终端设备、第二终端设备以及第三网络设备之间的链路的测量结果。如果第一终端设备根据获取的这些测量结果确定的第一切换方案为:第一终端设备切换至第二网络设备覆盖下的A小区,那么由于第一切换方案中的A小区为最优的切换小区(即能够使第一终端设备与第二终端设备既满足切换信号强度条件且位于同一网络覆盖下的小区),第一终端设备会优先将第一切换方案的信息(即A小区的信息)发送给第一网络设备,之后才会将第三网络设备覆盖下的小区的信息,以及第二网络设备覆盖下除A小区之外的其他小区的信息发送给第一网络设备。从而第一网络设备可以根据接收到的这些信息,来对该第一切换方案进行确认。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备接收终端设备发送的该终端设备确定的切换方案的信息后,对该切换方案进行确认,从而判断中继终端设备和远端终 端设备各自的切换方案是否合适。由于终端设备确定的切换方案使得两个终端设备在进行小区切换或小区重选后,能够尽可能地都位于自己覆盖的小区中,从而能够在中继终端和远端终端进行小区切换后,使中继终端和远端终端之间继续进行有效地中继传输。
