Description

一种通信方法、终端及网络设备
本申请要求在2017年3月20日提交国家专利局、申请号为201710167011.2、发明名称为“一种通信方法、终端及网络设备”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领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法、终端及网络设备。
背景技术
随机接入无线网络临时识别号(Random Access Radio Network Tempory Identity,RA-RNTI)是一种调度标识,用于标识和寻址调度基站向终端发送的的随机接入响应(Random Access Response,RAR)的物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)信令(order)。在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统中,终端在物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel,PRACH)资源上向基站发送前导序列(preamble)后,需要在随机接入响应窗口内盲检基站发送的PDCCH信令,一个随机接入响应窗口对应一个物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel,PRACH)资源,现有技术中,随机接入响应窗口的起始位置是前导序列发送的最后一个子帧之后的第三个子帧,窗口长度由基站通过系统信息指示。
现有技术中,终端和基站可以通过公式(1)确定RA-RNTI:
RA-RNTI=1+t_id+10×f_id······(1)
其中,t_id(0≤t_id<10)是终端发送preamble的PRACH资源所在的子帧(subframe)的子帧号,f_id是在这个子帧内这一个PRACH资源在频域上的资源索引号。在FDD系统中,每个子帧只有一个频域资源用来发送preamble,因此f_id永远为0,在TDD系统中,0≤f_id<6。由上述公式可以看出,终端在一个PRACH资源上发送preamble后,可以推算出发送preamble的PRACH资源的f_id,然后就可以根据公式(1)计算出一个唯一的RA-RNTI,从而根据计算出的RA-RNTI接收用于调度RAR的PDCCH信令。
在下一代无线通信系统中,例如:在新无线(New Radio,NR)系统中,系统支持将系统带宽划分为多个子频带和/或子时隙,每个子频带和/或子时隙可以支持不同的子载波间隔、不同的传输时间间隔(Transmission Time Interval,TTI)等,同时每个子频带和/或子时隙中都可能存在PRACH资源。如果存在一个下行子频带和/或子时隙对应两个以上的上行子频带和/或子时隙,也就是终端无论在哪一个上行子频带和/或子时隙的PRACH资源上发送preamble,都在对应的这一个下行子频带和/或子时隙上去接收PDCCH信令。此时,终端无法推算出每个PRACH资源的t_id和f_id,因此当终端跨子频带和/或子时隙接收PDCCH信令时,无法推算出发送preamble的PRACH资源的t_id和f_id,从而无法确定出RA-RNTI,从而无法通过RA-RNTI接收到用于调度RAR的PDCCH信令,从而无法完成随机接入。
目前,如何解决在PRACH资源的位置存在多个时,终端如何检测并接收用于调度RAR 的PDCCH信令,目前来说还是一个亟待解决的问题。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例可以应用于各种移动通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、先进的长期演进(Advanced long term evolution,LTE-A)系统、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、演进的长期演进(evolved Long Term Evolution,eLTE)系统、NR系统等其它移动通信系统。
图1示出了适用于本申请实施例的一种系统网络示意图。如图1所示,至少一个终端10与无线接入网(Radio access network,RAN)进行通信。所述RAN包括至少一个网络设备20,为清楚起见,图中只示出一个网络设备20和一个终端10。所述RAN与核心网络(core network,CN)相连。可选的,所述CN可以耦合到一个或者更多的外部网络(External Network),例如英特网,公共交换电话网(public switched telephone network,PSTN)等。
以下,对本申请中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
1)、终端,也可以称为用户设备(User Equipment,UE),是一种具有通信功能的设备,可以向用户提供语音和/或数据服务,可以包括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它处理设备等。在不同的网络中终端可以叫做不同的名称,例如:用户设备,移动台,用户单元,站台,蜂窝电话,个人数字助理,无线调制解调器,无线通信设备,手持设备,膝上型电脑,无绳电话,无线本地环路台等。为描述方便,本申请中简称为终端。
2)、网络设备,可以是基站(base station,简称BS)、云网络中的无线接入设备或中继站等具有无线收发功能的设备,是一种部署在无线接入网用以提供无线通信功能的设备。在不同的无线接入系统中基站的名称可能有所不同,例如在而在通用移动通讯系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,简称:UMTS)网络中基站称为节点B(NodeB),在LTE网络中的基站称为演进的节点B(evolved NodeB,简称:eNB或者eNodeB),在未来5G系统中可以称为收发节点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)网络节点或g节点B(g-NodeB,gNB)。
3)、无线接口技术(Radio Interface Technology,RIT)还可以称为numerology或长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)技术,无线接口技术可以包括以下一项或多项:子载波间隔、循环前缀长度、多址接入(multiple access)方式、调制编码方式(Modulation and Coding Scheme,MCS)、帧结构(frame structure)、物理信道(physical channel)、传输信道(transport channel)、逻辑信道(Logical Channel,LCH)、媒体接入控制(Medium Access Control,MAC)、无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,RLC)、分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)、无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)。主同步信道(Primary Synchronization Channel,P-SCH)、辅同步信道(Secondary Synchronization Channel,S-SCH)等。
不同的无线接口技术,可以满足不同业务的不同的带宽和时延的需求。不同的无线接口技术可以通过频分或者时分的方式,配置给同一个终端。在不同的无线接口技术上,可能存在不同的物理随机接入信道PRACH资源。如图1所示,在一个小区上通过频分的方式存在两种numerology,其中numerology1的传输时间间隔(TTI,transmission timer interval)比numerology2的TTI更长,numerology1上存在长周期的PRACH资源,numerology2上存在短周期的PRACH资源。
本申请实施例可以应用于竞争的随机接入,也可以应用于非竞争的随机接入。如图2所示,为现有技术中一种竞争的随机接入过程示意图。
S201:终端向网络设备发送随机接入前导码(preamble),该preamble是在物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access Channel,PRACH)资源上发送的。该消息也可以称之为消息1(Message1,Msg1)。
S202:网络设备向终端回复随机接入响应(Random Access Response,RAR)消息。
该消息也可以称之为消息2(Msg2)。
终端发送了preamble之后,将在RAR窗口内监听并检测PDCCH中的第一PDCCH信令,该第一PDCCH信令采用RA-RNTI加扰,用于调度发送给终端的RAR消息。终端若确定出发送preamble的PRACH资源的t_id和f_id,则可以根据公式(1)确定RA-RNTI,从而根据RA-RNTI检测出第一PDCCH信令,从而接收到RAR消息。
S203:终端向网络设备发送消息3(Msg3)。
S204:网络设备向终端发送竞争解决(contention resolution)消息,该消息也可以称之为消息4(Msg4)。
基于上述描述,参见图3,为本申请实施例提供的一种通信方法流程图。该方法包括:
步骤301:网络设备向终端指示第一资源的资源索引号,所述第一资源为用于发送随机接入的前导码的资源。
所述第一资源的资源索引号用于生成加扰第一信令的第一标识。第一信令以及第一标识的内容在后面详细描述。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,第一资源可以是指PRACH资源,或者其他用于发送前导码的资源。
步骤302:所述网络设备接收所述终端通过所述第一资源发送的前导码。
步骤303:终端根据第一资源的资源索引号确定第一标识,所述第一资源的资源索引号为预设的或由网络设备指示的,所述第一资源为用于发送随机接入的前导码的资源,所述第一标识用于对第一信令进行加扰,所述第一信令用于调度随机接入过程中的随机接入响应。
本申请实施例中,第一标识可以是指通过公式(1)确定出的RA-RNTI,或者作用类似于RA-RNTI的标识。第一信令可以为在随机接入过程中,网络设备接收到终端发送的前导码之后发送的用于调度RAR的PDCCH信令,或者作用类似于该PDCCH信令的信令。
步骤304:所述终端根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。
步骤301中,网络设备可以通过多种方式向终端指示所述第一资源的资源索引号。一种可能的实现方式中,网络设备可以通过广播信息向所述终端指示所述第一资源的资源索引号。另一种可能的实现方式中,所述网络设备可以通过专有信令向所述终端指示所述第一资源的资源索引号。其中,专有信令可以是指无线资源控制信令(Radio Resource Control,RRC)等信令。另一种可能的实现方式中,所述网络设备可以通过高层信令和底层信令组合的方式向所述终端指示所述第一资源的资源索引号。例如,所述网络设备可以通过RRC信令指示多种资源索引号,并通过媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)控制单元(control element,CE)或PDCCH信令指示终端使用其中的一种资源索引号,以实现网络设备灵活修改第一资源的资源索引号。另一种可能实现的方式中,所述网络设备可以通过物理层信令向所述终端指示所述第一资源的资源索引号。其中,物理层信令可以是指PDCCH信令。
步骤302之前,网络设备还可以向终端指示发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术。一种可能的实现方式中,网络设备可以向所述终端发送第二信令,所述第二信令指示出所述第一资源的无线接口技术。
需要说明的是,所述第二信令用于触发所述终端发起随机接入过程。例如,第二信令可以为网络设备向终端发送的触发所述终端发起随机接入过程的PDCCH信令,或者作用类似于该PDCCH信令的信令。
另一种可能的实现方式中,若终端从源网络设备切换到所述网络设备,此时所述网络设备为所述终端需要切换的目的网络设备,所述网络设备可以向源网络设备发送切换命令,所述切换命令指示出所述第一资源的无线接口技术。源网络设备接收到所述网络设备发送的切换命令之后,向所述终端转发所述切换命令,从而实现向终端指示发送前导码的 第一资源的无线接口技术。
步骤302中,网络设备接收到终端发送的前导码之后,可以根据终端发送前导码的第一资源的资源索引号确定第一标识,然后向终端发送RAR消息,其中所述RAR消息是通过采用第一标识加扰的第一信令调度的。终端先通过第一标识解扰了第一信令之后,才能根据第一信令的调度指示接收到RAR消息。
需要说明的是,资源索引号可以唯一指示出一个资源的时频位置,本申请实施例对资源索引号的实现方式并不限定,具体可以参考LTE系统等系统中的规定,在此不再赘述。
步骤303中,终端确定第一标识之前,可以先通过第一资源向网络设备发送前导码。终端在发送前导码之前,可以先确定发送第一资源的无线接口技术。本申请实施例中,终端可以通过多种方式确定发送第一资源的无线接口技术。第一种可能的实现方式中,终端在发送前导码之前,可能会接收到网络设备发送的用于触发所述终端发起随机接入过程的第二信令,此时终端可以确定第二信令的无线接口技术。终端直接将第二信令的无线接口技术确定为所述第一资源的无线接口技术,即在该实现方式中,所述第一资源的无线接口技术与第二信令的无线接口技术相同。
第二种可能的实现方式中,终端在接收到网络设备发送的用于触发所述终端发起随机接入过程的第二信令之后,将所述第二信令所指示的无线接口技术确定为所述第一资源的无线接口技术,即在该实现方式中,所述第一资源的无线接口技术为所述第二信令所指示的无线接口技术。所述第二信令所指示的无线接口技术可以为所述PDCCH信令所指示的无线接口技术,也可以为参考无线接口技术,也可以为其它无线接口技术,具体可以根据实际情况确定,在此不再赘述。其中,参考无线接口技术可以是指主同步信道或辅同步信号的无线接口技术,或者由协议规定的某个频率区间的参考无线接口技术。
需要说明的是,所述第一资源的无线接口技术与所述第二信令的无线接口技术为不同的无线接口技术时,所述终端若确定所述第二信令所指示的无线接口技术中包括至少一个用于发送所述前导码的资源,则从所述至少一个用于发送所述前导码的资源中选择一个资源作为所述第一资源。需要说明的是,所述终端可以随机选择一个资源作为发送所述前导码的第一资源,也可以按照其他方式选择第一资源。可选的,所述终端可以不总是选择所述至少一个用于发送所述前导码的资源中的第一个资源作为发送所述前导码的第一资源。
举例来说,如图4所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种资源分布示意图。图4中,无线接口技术1的TTI长度为T1,无线接口技术2的TTI长度为T2,T1的长度为T1的3倍。终端在无线接口技术1中接收到第二信令,所述第二信令指示终端在无线接口技术2中选择第一资源发送前导码,由于无线接口技术2中存在多个第一资源,终端可以随机选择一个第一资源作为发送所述前导码的资源。
第三种可能的实现方式中,终端由源网络设备切换到目的的所述网络设备(即终端切换的目的网络设备)过程中,可能需要向所述网络设备发送前导序列。所述网络设备会向源网络设备发送切换命令,所述切换命令用于指示所述终端由所述源网络设备切换到所述网络设备。所述网络设备可以通过所述切换命令向终端指示所述第一资源的无线接口技术。此时,所述源网络设备接收到所述网络设备发送的切换命令之后,向所述终端转发所述切换命令,所述终端从而确定所述第一资源的无线接口技术。
终端发送前导码之后,可以根据发送前导码的第一资源的资源索引号确定第一标识。本申请实施例中,所述第一资源的资源索引号可以为预设的,也可以为网络设备向终端指 示的,还可以为终端根据第一资源的分布规律确定的。
举例来说,第一资源的资源索引号为预设的时,第一资源的位置已经固定,终端可以直接根据预设的资源索引号确定第一标识。在该情况下,终端可以是在参考无线接口技术的第一资源中发送前导码,也可以是在任意的无线接口技术的第一资源中发送前导码。
再举例来说,第一资源的资源索引号为网络设备向终端指示的时,终端可以通过接收到的广播信息接收到的专有信令确定第一资源的资源索引号,从而确定第一标识。在该情况下,终端可以是在参考无线接口技术的第一资源中发送前导码,也可以是在任意的无线接口技术的第一资源中发送前导码。这种情况下,终端不需要知道一共有多少种第一资源,终端只需要通过网络设备的指示确定第一资源的资源索引号就可以了。
再举例来说,第一资源的资源索引号为网络设备向终端指示的时,终端可以按照第一资源在频域上的顺序确定第一资源的资源索引号。例如,第一资源在频域上的顺序为按照频率升序或者降序的方式依次分配资源索引号,终端根据第一资源的频率可以推测出该第一资源的资源索引号。第一资源在频域上的顺序可以是协议规定的,也可以是基站通过广播信息或专有信令向终端指示的。
通过上述方法,终端在第一资源中发送前导码之后,可以根据预设的第一资源的资源索引号或网络设备指示的第一资源的资源索引号确定第一标识,从而可以在第一资源的位置存在多个时,根据确定出的第一标识检测并接收第一信令。
步骤304中,终端可以根据第一标识,在RAR窗口中检测第一信令。本申请实施例中,RAR窗口的起始位置以及持续长度可以有多种实现方式,下面分别描述。
第一种可能的实现方式中,RAR窗口的起始位置可以为第一单位时间之后的第Q个第二单位时间的起始时刻,RAR窗口的持续长度可以为第一时间长度。其中,所述第一时间长度为P个第三单位时间的长度的和,所述第一单位时间为所述前导码传输结束的单位时间,所述第二单位时间的长度与所述第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度或者参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度相同,所述第三单位时间的长度与所述第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度或者参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度相同,Q为大于或等于0的正整数,P为大于或等于1的正整数。
需要说明的是,单位时间可以为调度传输块(Transport Block,TB)的时间间隔,例如可以是指一个TTI(Transmission Time Interval,传输时间间隔)等时间长度。单位时间也可以为子帧,或者两次PDCCH检测时机(PDCCH monitoring ooccasion)之间的时间间隔。
结合前面的描述,在该实现方式中,RAR窗口的持续长度可以以参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度为依据进行计算,也可以以发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度为依据进行计算。相应的,RAR窗口的起始位置可以以参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度为依据进行计算,也可以以发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度为依据进行计算。
在该实现方式中,终端可以在从第一单位时间之后的第Q个第二单位时间开始的第一时间长度内根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。
需要说明的是,Q、P的具体取值可以由终端和网络设备预先约定,也可以由协议进行规定,具体根据实际情况确定,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
第二种可能的实现方式中,RAR窗口的起始位置可以为第一单位时间之后的第Q个第二单位时间的起始时刻,RAR窗口的持续长度可以包括第一时间长度和第二时间长度。 其中,所述第二时间长度为S个第四单位时间的长度的和,所述第四单位时间的长度与所述第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度或者参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度相同,S为大于等于1的正整数。
在该实现方式下,所述终端若确定根据所述第一标识在第一时间长度内未检测到所述第一信令,则在第一时间长度结束时刻开始的第二时间长度内根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。具体的,在第一时间长度内,所述终端可以在发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的无线资源中,根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在第二时间长度内,在参考无线接口技术的无线资源中,根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。当然,在第一时间长度内,所述终端也可以在参考无线接口技术的无线资源中检测所述第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在第二时间长度内,在发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的无线资源中检测所述第一信令。
需要说明的是,无线资源可以是指PDCCH信道或者其他时频资源,在此并不限定。同时,S的具体取值可以由终端和网络设备预先约定,也可以由协议进行规定,具体根据实际情况确定,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
举例来说,如图5所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种RAR窗口示意图。图5中,无线接口技术1为参考无线接口技术,无线接口技术2为发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术,无线接口技术1的单位时间的长度为无线接口技术2的单位时间的长度的3倍。RAR窗口包括第一时间长度T1和第二时间长度T2,其中T1包括6个无线接口技术2中的单位时间的长度的和,T2包括3个无线接口技术1中的单位时间的长度的和。在T1内,终端可以在无线接口技术2的无线资源中,根据第一标识检测第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在T2内,在无线接口技术1的无线资源中,根据第一标识检测所述第一信令。
第三种可能的实现方式中,RAR窗口的起始位置可以为第一单位时间之后的第Q个第二单位时间的起始时刻,RAR窗口的持续长度可以包括第一时间长度和第三时间长度。其中,所述第三时间长度为K个第五单位时间的长度的和与第一时间长度的差值,所述第五单位时间的长度与所述第一资源的无线接口技术的单位时间的长度或者参考无线接口技术的单位时间的长度相同,K为大于等于1的正整数。所述K个第五单位时间的长度的和可以大于所述第一时间长度,当所述K个第五单位时间的长度的和小于或等于所述第一时间长度时,所述第三时间长度为0。
在该实现方式下,所述终端若确定在第一时间长度内未检测到所述第一信令,则在第一时间长度结束时刻开始的第三时间长度内根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。具体的,在第一时间长度内,所述终端可以在发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的无线资源中,根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在第三时间长度内,在参考无线接口技术的无线资源中,根据所述第一标识检测所述第一信令。当然,在第一时间长度内,所述终端也可以在参考无线接口技术的无线资源中检测所述第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在第三时间长度内,在发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术的无线资源中检测所述第一信令。需要说明的是,第三时间长度为0时,所述终端只在第一时间长度内检测所述第一信令。
需要说明的是,K的具体取值可以由终端和网络设备预先约定,也可以由协议进行规定,具体根据实际情况确定,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
举例来说,如图6所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种RAR窗口示意图。图6中,无 线接口技术1为参考无线接口技术,无线接口技术2为发送前导码的第一资源的无线接口技术,无线接口技术1的单位时间的长度为无线接口技术2的单位时间的长度的3倍。RAR窗口包括第一时间长度T1和第三时间长度T2,其中T1包括6个无线接口技术2中的单位时间的长度的和,T2为T3与T1的差值,T3为3个无线接口技术1中的单位时间的长度的和。在T1内,终端可以在无线接口技术2的无线资源中,根据第一标识检测第一信令,若未检测到所述第一信令,则在T2内,在无线接口技术1的无线资源中,根据第一标识检测所述第一信令。
再举例来说,结合图6,若T2为1个无线接口技术1中的单位时间的长度的和与T1的差值,此时T2为0。
通过上述方法,终端在第一时间段内没有检测到第一信令时,可以继续在第二时间段或第三时间段检测第一信令,如果在第二时间段或第三时间段检测到第一信令,从而可以减少重新发起随机接入过程的次数,从而提高终端的接入速度,减少终端的接入延迟。
由于不同无线接口技术的单位时间不同,当一个子帧可能包括多个单位时间,且每个单位时间都有发送前导码的第一资源时,一个子帧可能包括多个第一资源,因此需要采用新的方法计算第一标识。
本申请实施例中,可以采用公式(2)计算第一标识:
RA-RNTI=1+slot_id+(1+max_slot_id)×f_id······(2)
其中,RA-RNTI为第一标识,slot_id是第一资源的索引值,索引值可以是指第一资源的编号,用以区分时域上不同的第一资源。在时域上,可以以一个第一资源作为起始第一资源,并将起始第一资源的索引值设为0,然后按照时间顺序,对该起始第一资源后面的第一资源依次设置索引值,且设置的索引值每次均递增1,直到索引值取到最大值max_slot_id,然后对索引值取到最大值的第一资源之后的第一资源的索引值,再重新从0开始取值,直到取到最大值max_slot_id,依次周而复始。max_slot_id的取值和RAR窗口的起始位置和RAR窗口的持续长度有关,max_slot_id+1可以大于或等于目标时间段内,在时域上可以包括的第一资源的个数的最大值。其中,目标时间段是指终端从发送前导码结束的时刻开始,到RAR窗口结束的时刻之间的时间段。
举例来说,终端从发送前导码结束的时刻开始,到RAR窗口结束的时刻之间的时间段内,包括10个单位时间长度,每个单位时间长度最多可以包括1个PRACH资源,那么max_slot_id的取值可以为9。
max_slot_id也可以是一个系统帧内第一资源在时域上的最大的个数。
本申请实施例中,还可以采用公式(3)计算第一标识:
RA-RNTI=1+t_id+slot_id×max_t_id+(1+max_slot_id×max_t_id)×f_id······(3)
其中,slot_id是一个子帧内的第一资源的索引值,用以区分一个子帧内时域上不同的第一资源。对任意一个子帧内的第一资源,将第一个第一资源的索引值设为0,对该第一资源后面的第一资源依次设置索引值,且设置的索引值每次均递增1,直到该子帧内的最后一个第一资源。max_slot_id是一个子帧内在时域上第一资源的最大的个数,举例来说,如果在一个子帧内,在一种numerology上有5个时域上不同的第一资源,而在另一种numerology上有7个时域上不同的第一资源,那么max_slot_id为7。max_t_id是一个系统帧内子帧的个数,现有技术中,max_t_id为10。
LTE中,为了避免周期性的使用PDCCH信令对终端进行调度,提出了半静态调度 (Semi-Persistent Scheduling,SPS)的机制,SPS资源被激活后,周期性的出现,终端周期性的在SPS资源上接收下行数据或者发送上行数据。
LTE中,由于仅在主小区上存在SPS配置,且只存在一种SPS配置,因此SPS资源的混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest,HARQ)进程标识(identification,ID)通过下面的公式给出:
对下行SPS资源,可以通过公式(4)确定HARQ Process ID down
HARQ Process ID down=[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalDL)]modulo numberOfConfSPS-Processes······(4)
其中,CURRENT_TTI=[(SFN×10)+SN],SFN为系统帧号,SN为子帧数量,semiPersistSchedIntervalDL为下行SPS资源的周期,numberOfConfSPS_Processes为最大下行HARQ进程数,floor()表示向下取值运算,modulo为取余运算符。
对上行SPS资源,可以通过公式(5)确定HARQ Process ID up
HARQ Process ID up=[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalUL)]modulo numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes······(5)
其中,CURRENT_TTI=[(SFN×10)+SN],SFN为系统帧号,SN为子帧数量,semiPersistSchedIntervalUL为上行SPS资源的周期,numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes为最大上行HARQ进程数,floor()表示向下取值运算,modulo为取余运算符。
NR中,可能不同的numerology上配置不同的SPS资源,可以看到当一个小区存在多种SPS资源时,上述公式可能计算出相同的HARQ进程号。
如果不同的numerology使用一个HARQ实体,也就是,共用这个HARQ实体中的HARQ进程,那么不同的SPS资源计算出相同的HARQ进程号就会造成HARQ重传无法和初传进行对应。
为了解决上述问题,可以在计算HARQ process ID的时候,加无线接口技术索引号或SPS配置索引号作为新的参数,下面分别描述:
对下行SPS资源:
对于SPS配置1,可以通过公式(6)计算HARQ Process ID:
HARQ Process ID=[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalDL)]modulo numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1······(6)
对于SPS配置2,可以通过公式(7)计算HARQ Process ID:HARQ Process ID=numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1+[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalDL)]modulo numberOfConfSPS_Processes_2······(7)
对于SPS配置3,可以通过公式(8)计算HARQ Process ID:
HARQ Process ID=numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1+numberOfConfSPS_Processes_2+[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalDL)]modulo numberOfConfSPS-Processes-3······(8)
上述公式(6)至公式(8)中,numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1、numberOfConfSPS_Processes_2、numberOfConfSPS_Processes_3指的是每一个下行SPS配置上允许的最大的HARQ进程数量。
对上行SPS资源:
对于SPS配置1,可以通过公式(9)计算HARQ Process ID:
HARQ Process ID=[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalUL)]modulo numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_1······(9)
对于SPS配置2,可以通过公式(10)计算HARQ Process ID:HARQ Process ID=numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1+[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalUL)]modulo numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_2······(10)
对于SPS配置3,可以通过公式(11)计算HARQ Process ID:HARQ Process ID=numberOfConfSPS_Processes_1+numberOfConfSPS_Processes_2+[floor(CURRENT_TTI/semiPersistSchedIntervalUL)]modulo numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_3······(11)
上述公式(9)至公式(11)中,numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_1、numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_2、numberOfConfUlSPS_Processes_3指的是每一个上行SPS配置上允许的最大的HARQ进程数量。
