Description

一种通信方法及相关设备 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法及相关设备。
背景技术
蜂窝通信系统在设计之初主要针对地面终端,如果蜂窝通信系统能够支持无人机将帮助无人机进行远距离飞行,这样无人机就可以充分地发挥图片采集、视频拍摄、运输等功能,从而给人们的生活带来更大便利。当无人机飞行高度超过基站后就会与更多设备(包括基站和地面终端)之间无遮挡物遮挡,因此很多设备发送的信号容易被该无人机接收到,该无人机发送的信号也容易被很多设备接收到。如图1所示,当处于高空中的无人机与提供服务的基站0通信时,由于该无人机与基站1、基站2、地面终端1和地面终端2之间没有遮挡物遮挡,因此该无人机发送的的信号可能被基站1、基站2、地面终端1和地面终端2接收到,基站1、基站2、地面终端1和地面终端2发送的信号也可能被该无人机接收到。
蜂窝通信系统中如何为无人机配置通信资源,以减少无人机与通信系统中的设备之间的通信干扰,以及降低无人机在蜂窝网络中的切换次数,是本领域的技术人员正在研究的技术问题。

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描述。
请参见图2,图2是本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的结构示意图,该通信系统至少包括终端设备201、第一网络设备202和第二网络设备203。可选的,该通信系统20中的设备可以采用无线通信技术进行通信,例如,该无线通信技术可以为第二代移动通信技术(The 2nd-Generation,2G)、第三代移动通信技术(The 3rd-Generation,3G)、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)、第四代移动通信技术(the 4th Generation mobile communication,4G)、第五代移动通信技术(the 5th-Generation,5G)、或者无线保真(WIreless-Fidelity,WI-FI)技术、或者蓝牙技术、或者zigbee技术,或者其他现有的通信技术、或后续研究出的通信技术,等等。其中,终端设备201可以为具有无线通信功能的手持设备(例如,手机、平板电脑、掌上电脑等)、车载设备(例如,汽车、自行车、电动车、飞机、船舶、火车、高铁等)、可穿戴设备(例如智能手表、智能手环、计步器等)、智能家居设备(例如,冰箱、电视、空调、电表等)、飞行设备(例如,无人机、飞机)、智能机器人、车间设备、能够连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备,以及各种形式的用户设备、移动台(mobile station,MS)、终端设备(terminal)、终端设备(terminal equipment),等等。第一网络设备202和第二网络设备203可以为网络侧的设备,例如,5G中的基站、4G中的基站,或者其他任何可以实现无线网络接入功能的设备,等等。
请参见图3,图3是本发明实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图,该流程可以基于图2所示的通信系统来实现,该方法包括但不限于如下步骤。
步骤S301:第一网络设备向第二网络设备发送第一请求消息。
具体地,所述第一请求消息用于请求将所述第二网络设备的小区加入协作组,为了描述方便,后续可以称该协作组中的每个小区都为第一小区,该协作组包括至少一个第一小区,所述协作组包括所述第一网络设备的小区(可称为第一小区);所述协作组中的小区用于各分出一部分资源来组成第一资源集合,所述第一资源集合用于第一网络设备和第二网络设备与终端设备通信。
所述第一资源集合中的资源由一个小区中的部分资源组成或者由多个小区中的资源组成,也即是说,该第一资源集合中的资源由至少一个小区中的资源组成,后续可以称该至少一个小区中的每一个小区为一个第一小区。可选的,当该第一资源集合中的资源由多个第一小区中的资源组成时,该多个第一小区可以都提供自身的全部资源来组成该第一资源集合,也可以都提供自身的部分资源来组成该第一资源集合。该第一资源集合中的资源可以只包含上行传输的资源,也可以只包含下行传输的资源,还可以既包含上行传输的资源也包括下行传输的资源。另外,该第一资源集合中的资源为周期性的资源,也可以理解为该第一资源集合中的资源为静态或者半静态的资源,使用该第一资源集合中的资源进行 通信能够减少信令交互,从而减少时延和节省通信资源。
进一步地,在同一传输时刻,所述第一资源集合仅服务于一个终端设备或者一个终端设备组,所述第一终端设备组由多个终端设备组成,在不同的传输时刻,所述第一资源集合中用于同向传输的资源在同一个载波上占用相同的频域位置。其中,所述第一资源集合可以包含多个上行载波和/或下行载波。在本发明实施例中,该第一终端设备组中的多个终端设备均属于满足上述预设条件的设备,例如,该多个终端设备的高度均满足预设条件或者所述多个终端设备均处于预设的飞行状态。
该第一资源集合中的频域资源可以为系统带宽中的部分资源,例如,一段资源块(resource block,RB)范围、一段资源元素(resource element,RE)范围,等等。该第一资源集合除了包含频域资源外,还可能包括时域、码域和波束域中至少一个维度的资源,当然也可能包含其他维度的资源。当该第一资源集合包含时域资源时,该时域资源的单位可以为现有的的帧、子帧、符号、时隙(slot)、微时隙(mini-slot)、符号组等,也可以为后续提出的其他形式的调度时间单位,后续可以以该时域的单位为子帧为例进行描述。
在本发明实施例中,该第一资源集合可以是该第一网络设备与其他网络设备协商出来的(本发明实施例中的步骤S301-S305可以为协商该第一资源集合的过程),协商的流程可以由该第一网络设备发起。
在第一种可选方案中,该第一资源集合可以构成一个第二小区,该第二小区也有自身的小区标识,由于该第一资源集合由该至少一个第一小区各分出的部分资源构成,因此该第二小区的信号覆盖范围为该至少一个第一小区的信号覆盖范围取并集,这样一来,当该终端设备在移动时只要还在该至少一个第一小区范围内,则该终端设备就不需要进行小区切换。可选的一种方式,第二小区的范围,或第一资源集合中的第一小区列表,是可以随终端移动动态改变的。可选的另一种方式,第二小区的范围,或第一资源集合中的第一小区列表,是固定的,不随终端位置改变,此种情况下,蜂窝网络中可以存在多个第二小区(图4示意了2个第二小区,其中每个阿拉伯数字代表一个第一小区),这多个第二小区可以构成一个单频网,该多个第二小区中的各个第二小区用的频域资源相同,该各个第二小区用的时频资源可以完全相同,或者具体的时域资源位置也可以不同。可选的,构成同一个第二小区的各个第一小区的载波相同,若两个第一小区分别用于构成不同的第二小区则这两个第一小区的载波不相同。
在第二种可选方案中,该第一资源集合不需要构成一个第二小区,这样一来该终端设备在移动时可能会在该至少一个第一小区之间切换。
可选的,该终端设备在蜂窝网络中通信时存在一条S1链路,可以是存在于核心网与中心单元(center unit,CU)(可以为该第一网络设备)之间的S1链路,也可以使核心网与锚点基站间的S1链路,后续以CU为例进行描述。下行数据的传输流程为:CU收到核心网发送的数据后将数据分发给至少一个数据单元(data unit,DU)(每个DU可以为上述至少一个第一小区中的一个第一小区的网络设备),或者也可以是一个第一小区所属的基站,可称为节点基站,后续描述以DU为例。然后该至少一个DU中每个DU将收到的数据发送给该终端设备。上行数据的传输流程为:该终端设备使第一资源集合中的资源发送上行数据,该数据由至少一个DU接收,该至少一个DU将接收到的数据发送给该CU,该CU 接收到该至少一个DU发送的数据后将接收到的数据发送给该核心网。如果是锚点基站和节点基站的架构,不需要设计协议栈分离模式。如果是CU-DU架构,CU-DU间需要进行协议栈分离,具体的协议栈设置如图5所示,CU和DU的协议栈从媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层分开,MAC层在CU的部分可以称为High MAC(也称高MAC,功能包括但不限于MAC层MAC控制元素(MAC control element,MAC CE)生成和接收,复用和解复用,调度功能的至少一项),MAC层在DU的部分可以称为Low MAC(也称低MAC,功能包括但不限于上行混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)和下行绑定bundling发送的至少一项)。该至少一个DU需要在相同时间使用相同的频域资源发送相同的数据给该终端设备,例如,该至少一个DU需要在SFN2,子帧3的RB10-15同时发送资源块TB1给该终端设备。为实现这一功能,首先TB1由High MAC生成,再传输给low MAC由low MAC进行发送。在传给low MAC TB1数据包的同时还需要指示具体的发送时刻,以便该至少一个DU的low MAC都在该发送时刻发送该TB1。指示该发送时刻的信息可以是具体的帧号和子帧号,也可以是一个表示时刻的索引值(例如,以10秒钟为一个周期,共10000毫秒(ms),可以设置0到9999的索引值来依次标记第1ms到第10000ms),也可以是其他表示时域位置的信息。
当该第一资源集合包含时域资源时,该时域包括但不限于如下几种可能性:
方式一:可以使用时域的起始位置、长度、周期、偏移量和结束位置中至少两项来表示所述第一资源集合包含的时域位置,例如,以子帧为单位并按照指示周期和偏移量的方式来指示该第一资源集合中的时域,假设周期为T,偏移值为offset,一个帧内的子帧总数为M,则该第一资源集合包含的子帧号x可以按照以下公式计算x=(T*N+offset)mod(M),其中N为第一资源集合中时域资源位置的序号。如果M能被T整除,则在一个帧中第一资源集合的子帧总是固定的。例如T=5,M=10,offset=1,则每一帧中的子帧1和子帧6都是该第一资源集合中的子帧。
方式二:通过帧号和子帧号联合计算,例如(10*SFN+subframe)=[(10*SFNstart time+subframestart time)+N*周期值]modulo 10240,其中SFN为帧号,subframe为子帧号,SFNstart time和subframestart time为半静态调度起始的帧号和子帧号。相比于方式一,公式中引入了帧号,所以需要该网络设备与该其他网络设备之间的帧号相同,同时这种方式也可以使用超过一个帧长度的周期。
方式三:根据传输时间单位图样来表示所述第一资源集合包含的时域位置,直接确定固定的子帧(属于一种调度时间单位)图样,即直接规定具体的用于第一资源集合的帧号和子帧号,例如规定单数帧中的子帧1和子帧2为该第一资源集合的子帧。也可以只规定子帧号,即每一帧中相应的子帧都属于该第一资源集合。
另外,当该第一资源集合中包含上行的资源和下行的资源时,指示下行的资源用到的参数与指示上行的资源用到的参数可能相同也可能不相同。例如,假设该第一资源集合包含多载波,如图6A所示,上行资源包含N个载波(N为大于1的正整数),上行资源的时间位置以符号组为单位。载波1中每个资源时域上占用1个符号,每个符号间隔为6个符号,频域上占用4个资源块RB;载波2中每个资源时域上占用2个符号,每个符号组间隔为5个符号,频域上占用3个RB;载波N每个资源包含3个时域符号,每个符号组间隔4 个符号,频域上占用4个RB。而下行资源包含M个载波(M为大于1的正整数),时域以单个子帧长度为单位。载波1周期为2个子帧,偏移值为1,频域占用2个RB;载波2周期为4个子帧,偏移值为1,频域占用3个RB;载波M周期为2个子帧,偏移值为1,频域占用3个RB,所以每两个子帧出现一个虚拟通信区子帧。再如,假设该第一资源集合包括一个载波,如图6B所示,上行资源的时间位置以符号组为单位,每个资源包含3个时域符号,每个符号组间隔4个符号。而下行资源以单个子帧长度为单位,周期为2个子帧,偏移值为1,所以每两个子帧出现一个虚拟通信区子帧。可选的,第一资源集合中下行资源并不占据子帧内全部符号,只是占用部分符号,如占用子帧内的后11个符号,前3个符号仍用于物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)(以子帧内包含14个符号为例)。
可选的,该第一资源集合中还可以存在多种信道,例如,当该第一资源集合构成一个第二小区时,该第一资源集合内需要划分出较多的信道来支持该第二小区的正常运行。为了便于理解,以下例举几种可能的信道划分方案:
方案一:该第一资源集合包括用于下行传输的时频资源和用于上行传输的时频资源,且用于下行传输的时频资源和用于上行传输的时频资源均可以用于数据信道的传输。
方案二:该第一资源集合包括用于下行传输的时频资源和用于上行传输的时频资源,且用于下行传输的时频资源和用于上行传输的时频资源均可以用于数据信道的传输。并且所述下行传输包括同步信号、用于测量或解调的参考信号和控制信道中至少一项的传输,所述上行传输包括参考信号、随机接入信道和控制信道中至少一项的传输。
可选的,该第一资源集合内包含的信道的类型可以与长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)中信道划分方式类似,相对与LTE而言是压缩的版本(因为LTE中可用的时频资源的资源范围远大于该第一资源集合的资源范围)。示例的,如图7A所示,假设该第一资源集合中用于下行传输的时频资源的时域包括一个子帧中的后11个符号(这11个符号的索引范围从3到13)且频域包括6个RB,那么可以使控制信道和同步信道分别占用一个单独的符号,数据信道占用其他的符号,并且在数据信道中分布着用于进行信道估计的解调参考信号。控制信道中可以携带对终端设备的调度指示信息。如图7B所示,假设该第一资源集合中用于上行传输的时频资源的时域包括一个子帧且频域上占用5个RB,那么可以使控制信道占用一个RB(可选的,还可以采用跳频设计,即在两个时隙上占用的频域位置不同);解调参考信号占用两个符号,分别为符号3和符号10;其余位置为数据信道占用,终端设备也可以在数据信道中反馈下行数据的确认(ACK)/非确认(NACK)。
步骤S302:该第二网络设备接收该第一网络设备发送的第一请求消息。
具体地,该第二网络设备可以根据一些信息确定是否加入到该协作组中,例如,该第一请求消息中可以包含该第一资源集合信息,该第二网络设备可以判断自己的小区中是否有终端设备使用该第一资源集合中的资源,若该第二网络设备自己的小区中有终端设备使用该第一资源集合中的资源则该第二网络设备确定不加入该协作组,若该第二网络设备自己的小区中没有终端设备使用该第一资源集合中的资源则该第二网络设备确定加入该协作组。再如,该第二网络设备判断自己的小区当前空闲的资源的数量是否大于预设阈值,若大于则该第二网络设备确定加入该协作组,若不大于则该第二网络设备确定不加入该协作 组。或者资源占用率低于预设门限值时可以加入该协作组。该第二网络设备还可以通过其他信息来确定是否加入该协作组,该其他信息具体是什么信息此处暂不作限定,只需预先设定即可。
步骤S303:该第二网络设备向该第一网络设备发送针对该第一请求消息的响应消息。
具体地,若确定加入该协作组则该第二网络设备向该第一网络设备发送响应消息以向该第一网络设备指示该第二网络设备允许所述小区加入该协作组,若确定不加入该协作组则该第二网络设备向该第一网络设备发送响应消息以向该第一网络设备指示该第二网络设备不允许所述小区加入该协作组,或者不向该第一网络设备发送响应消息以向该第一网络设备表明该第二网络设备不允许所述小区加入该协作组。
步骤S304:该第一网络设备接收该第二网络设备发送的针对第一请求消息的响应消息。
步骤S305:所述第一网络设备将所述第二网络设备的小区加入所述协作组。
具体地,若所述响应消息指示允许将所述第二网络设备的小区加入所述协作组,则所述第一网络设备将所述第二网络设备的小区加入所述协作组。可选的,若第二网络设备的小区加入了该协作组,该第一网络设备可以向该第二网络设备发送该协作组的标识或所述第二小区的标识,接入该协作组中的终端设备的无线网络临时标识(radio network temporyidentity,RNTI)、上述第一资源集合内的信道划分方式的信息,上述第一资源集合的分组数据汇聚协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)、无线链路层控制协议(radio link control,RLC)、媒体访问控制(media access control,MAC)、物理层(physical layer,PHY)配置,等等。该协作组的标识可以用于物理层的各种序列生成;该终端设备的RNTI可用于生成扰码,以对控制信道或数据信道进行加扰;信道划分方式的信息用于第一资源集合内的信道构成;PDCP、RLC、MAC、PHY配置包括各层协议的配置,可以针对终端设备的不同承载分别配置。可选的,添加该第二网络设备的小区的过程需要考虑新增的该第二网络设备的数据传输过程,以保证该终端设备的数传的稳定性。上行传输:在配置完协议栈后,该第一网络设备或中心单元(center unit,CU)指示新增该第二网络设备的起始时刻,从起始时刻开始该新增的第二网络设备可以开始进行上行数据接收,循环冗余校验(cyclic cedundancycheck,CRC)校验成功后可以直接向上递交。下行传输:在指定时刻传输指定的PDCP服务数据单元(service data unit,SDU),从每个HARQ进程(process)的新传开始,在覆盖所有HARQ进程后完成过渡,从而开始正式进行数据传输。
可选的,若所述响应消息指示不允许将所述第二网络设备的小区加入所述协作组,则所述第一网络设备不将所述第二网络设备的小区加入所述协作组。
该第一网络设备还可以向该第二网络设备发送第二请求消息,所述第二请求消息用于请求所述第二网络设备进入低干扰模式。相应地,该第二网络设备接收到该第二请求消息后即响应该第二请求消息的请求,进入到低干扰模式,例如,该第二网络设备降低自己的小区中的上述第一资源集合上的下行发送功率,或向终端发送指示使终端设备在上述第一资源集合的上行资源上降低发送功率。可选的,若该第二网络设备进入了低干扰模式则可以向该第一网络设备发送确定消息以表明该第二网络设备进入了低干扰模式。可选的,若第二网络设备未进入低干扰模式则可以向该第一网络设备发送拒绝消息以表明该第二网络设备不进入低干扰模式。
可选的,终端设备移动时该协作组也可能需要调整,也可以称为第二小区范围的调整或第一资源集合相应小区列表的调整,以下例举两种可能的调整的方式:
方式一:该协作组中新增了小区或者删除了小区。其中,增加小区时具体的操作流程可以参照该第一网络设备将该第二网络设备的小区加入到该协作组中的流程。删除小区时同样以删除该第二网络设备的小区要为例来进行描述(删除其他小区的方式与删除该第二网络设备的小区的方式相同),删除流程包括:
11、所述第一网络设备确定所述第二网络设备的小区满足退出所述协作组的条件。其中,退出协作组的条件是预先定义的,该条件的具体内容此处暂不作限定,但是为了方便理解以下例举几种可选的方式,例如,当某个指定的终端设备不在该第二网络设备的小区的信号范围内时,则该第二网络设备的小区满足退出该协作组的条件。再如,当某个指定的终端设备接收到的由该第二网络设备发送的小区信号弱于某个预设信号阈值时,例如,小区参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP)/参考信号接收质量(reference rignal receiving quality,RSRQ)/信号与干扰加噪声比(signal to interference plus noise ratio,SINR)低于某预设门限值时,则该第二网络设备的小区满足退出该协作组的条件。再如,当该第二网络设备向该网络设备发送消息请求退出该协作组时,该第二网络设备满足退出该协作组的条件。
12、所述第一网络设备向所述第二网络设备发送第三请求消息,所述第三请求消息用于请求(或者说“通知”)将所述第二网络设备的小区从所述协作组中删除。
13、所述第一网络设备将所述第二网络设备的小区从所述协作组中删除。该第一网络设备具有该协作组所包含的各个小区的信息,例如,各个小区的标识,该第一网络设备可以将从该协作组小区列表中将该第二网络设备的小区的信息删除掉,从而将该第二网络设备的小区从该协作组中删除。可选的,上述步骤12可以有也可以没有,当没有上述步骤12时,表明该第一网络设备从该协作组中删除了该第二网络设备的小区但是不通知该第二网络设备。可选的,步骤12之后该第二网络设备可以根据该第三请求消息向该第一网络设备发送响应消息,若该响应指示可以将该第二网络设备的小区从该协作组中删除,该第一网络设备才执行步骤13,否则不执行步骤13。
方式二:该协作组中的锚点(anchor)网络设备由该第一网络设备换成了另外一个网络设备。该锚点网络设备负责与核心网通过S1链路通信,和进行该协作组的维护,以及管理或调度上述第一资源集合,同时生成配置信息并指示其他节点网络设备在相同的时频资源发送给终端设备以便该终端设备使用该第一资源集合中的资源与网络设备进行通信。该协作组中的锚点网络设备由该第一网络设备换成了另外一个网络设备包括如下步骤:
21、所述第一网络设备确定自身的小区不满足为终端设备提供服务的条件。上述第一资源集合本来就是用来提供给一些指定终端设备使用的,若该第一网络设备不满足为该指定终端设备提供服务的条件,那么就需要更换重新产生锚点网络设备以使新的锚点网络设备为该指定终端设备提供服务。不满足为该指定终端设备提供服务的条件具体是什么内容此处不作限定,只需预先设定好即可,以下例举几种可选情况以方便理解。例如,当该第一网络设备的小区的信号范围无法覆盖该指定终端设备时,该第一网络设备的小区不满足为该指定终端设备提供服务的条件。再如,该指定终端设备接收到的该协作组中一个小区 的信号比该终端设备接收到的该第一网络设备的小区的信号强时,该第一网络设备的小区不满足为该指定终端设备提供服务的条件。
22、所述第一网络设备向第三网络设备发送第四请求消息,所述第四请求消息用于请求将所述第三网络设备作为终端设备锚点网络设备,所述第三网络设备的小区可以属于所述协作组且满足为所述终端设备提供服务的条件,或者所述第三网络设备的小区可以不在协作组中,此时需先执行小区添加动作再改变锚点基站。
23、该第三网络设备接收该第一网络设备发送的第四请求消息。该第三网络设备接收到该第四请求消息之后就可以成为锚点网络设备,从而替代第一网络设备来维护该协作组。
可选的,锚点网络设备由第一网络设备变为第三网络设备时,为保证数据传输的稳定,可执行以下流程,以下过程可以用于下行数传:
如果RLC UM模式和maxHARQ-Tx=1,第一网络设备向第三网络设备发送PDCP SDU、RLC SDU segment(下行only),并直接指示切换时间点。从切换时间点开始,由第三网络设备向终端设备发送数据。
如果RLC UM模式和maxHARQ-Tx>1,第三网络设备依赖于异步自适应重传,绝对切换点后最初的几次数传可以只做新传。
如果RLC AM模式和maxHARQ-Tx>1,可以向该终端设备发送上行PDCP status report或要求该终端设备返回下行PDCP status report,以重新进行PDCP PDU上下行发送。该方式还需要该终端设备清空HARQ buffer和RLC buffer。或者,第一网络设备与第二网络设备之间交互RLC buffer状态信息和buffer数据,即RLCbuffer不清空,只清空HARQbuffer。
在本发明实施例中,不同的网络设备之间(例如,第一网络设备与第二网络设备之间,第一网络设备与第三网络设备之间)可能通过X2口通信,也可能通过核心网通信。
可选的,如果该协作组中的各个小区对应的(或者说所属的)各个网络设备之间的通信时延短到可以忽略不计或是低于一个预设门限,可以认为该各个网络设备之间具有理想backhual链路,此时终端设备与该各个网络设备之间的数传模式类似于COMP,即多天线的联合发送接收,而且只需要锚点网络设备与核心网设备之间维持一个S1连接即可(包括控制面S1-MME连接和用户面S1-U连接)。如果该各个网络设备之间没有理想backhaul,可以建立MME与该协作组各个网络设备(即该协作组中的各个小区对应的各个网络设备)之间的针对所述终端设备的S1连接,使得该各个网络设备都与核心网建立S1链路。例如,锚点网络设备向MME发送该协作组中各个小区的信息和该终端设备的标识,MME根据该各个小区的标识和该终端设备的标识建立与该各个小区对应的各个网络设备之间的针对所述终端设备的S1连接。以下简单介绍建立S1连接和删除S1连接的流程。
请参见图8,图8是建立S1连接的大致流程,该流程包括但不限于如下步骤:
31、第一网络设备向MME发送加入到协作组中的各个小区的标识和某个终端设备的标识。
32、该MME接收该各个小区的标识和该某个终端设备的标识,然后进行S1-MME链路建立,该某个终端的上下文(context发送),或者也可以不建立S1-MME链路,只建立下述的S1-U链路;
33、该MME向SGW发送S1-U链路建立指示;
34、SGW向所述小区所属网络设备(例如基站)发送S1-U建立请求。
35、所述小区所属网络设备向SGW发送S1-U建立完成消息。
36、MME向该第一网络设备发送通知消息,已通知MME与该各个小区之间已经建立了针对该某个终端设备与该各个小区之间的S链路。
请参见图9,图9是删除S1连接的大致流程,该流程包括但不限于如下步骤:
41、第一网络设备向MME发送加入到协作组中的各个小区的标识和某个终端设备的标识。
42、该MME接收该各个小区的标识和该某个终端设备的标识,然后进行S1-MME链路删除,该某个终端的上下文(context)删除;
43、该MME向SGW发送S1链路删除指示;
44、SGW向所述小区所属网络设备(例如基站)发送S1-U删除请求。
45、所述小区所属网络设备向SGW发送S1-U删除完成消息。
46、MME向该第一网络设备发送通知消息,已通知MME与该各个小区之间针对该某个终端设备与该各个小区之间的S1链路已经删除。
在图3所示的方法中,该第一网络设备向该第二网络设备发送第一请求消息,以请求该第二网络设备的小区加入协作组,若该第二网络设备可以加入该协作组则该第一网络设备将该第二网络设备加入该协作组。由于加入协作组的小区都知道该第一资源集合中的资源用于供该终端设备使用,因此当该终端设备使用该第一资源集合中的资源通信时就可以减少与该终端设备之外的设备之间的干扰了。
请参见图10、图10是本发明实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图,该方法包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤S1001:中心单元CU向多个数据单元DU发送第一消息。
具体地,所述第一消息包含时间戳和第二消息以便所述多个数据单元(data unit,DU)在所述时间戳指示的时间用相同的资源向终端发送所述第二消息,其中,所述第一消息还可以包括其他调度信息,例如,调制编码方案信息、信道状态信息请求指示、跳频指示、下行控制信息格式、控制信道元素聚集级别指示、控制信道元素位置信息、所述资源的频域位置信息,等等。另外,所述第二消息包括下行传输块数据、上行调度指示、下行调度指示、系统消息和寻呼消息中的至少一项。可选的,该多个DU可以为多个小区的网络设备,这多个小区可以各分出一部分资源来组成一个资源集合,可以称该资源集合为第一资源集合。可以看做这多个小区构成了一个虚拟小区,该虚拟小区的资源为该第一资源集合的资源。如图4所示,小区1、小区2、小区3、小区4、小区5、小区6、小区7和小区8构成一个虚拟小区(也称第二小区),小区7、小区8、小区9、小区10、小区11、小区12、小区13和小区14构成另一个虚拟小区(也称第二小区)。
可选的,该DU和(center unit,CU)在MAC层分离,图5为对应的结构示意图,其中,所述CU具备MAC层的MAC CE生成、接收、复用、解复用和调度功能的至少一项,所述多个DU具备MAC层的上行HARQ和下行绑定bundling发送功能中至少一项。CU和DU在MAC层分离主要有以下几个原因:
1、PDCP有安全功能包括数据加密和完整性功能,如果PDCP层放在DU,各个DU单独完成数据加密功能,不利于安全秘钥的统一管理,所以PDCP层协议栈也部署在CU。
2、RLC层具有数据包分片、串接和自动重传请求(Automatic Repeat reQuest,ARQ)功能,如果RLC层放在DU,上行数据分片后,可能多个DU都只能收到部分分片,无法凑齐完成的数据包上交给CU;同时对于ARQ功能,多个DU分别指示终端进行ARQ重传,对于多个DU属于同一个小区的情况难以进行资源协调。所以RLC层协议栈也部署在CU。
3、每个设备(包括各种网络设备和各种终端设备)都具有一个相应的MAC实体。功能包括MAC CE生成、接收、复用、解复用、调度功能、HARQ等。例如,上述虚拟小区是一个单一小区,那么组成该虚拟小区的各个小区的DU(或者说网络设备)应该进行统一的资源调度,所以调度功能应该部署在CU;调度的基础是数据,所以各个承载的数据复用和解复用也应该部署在CU,同时MAC CE由于需要与数据共同组成TB,所以也需要部署在CU。但是HARQ功能需要遵循严格的时序要求,例如,HARQ初传发生在子帧n,则HARQ反馈需要出现在子帧n+4,如果反馈结果是NACK则重传需要在子帧n+8发出。对于CU-DU间非理想回传链路(non ideal backhaul),单向传输时间可能达到20ms,往返时间达到40ms,如果HARQ功能部署在CU就不能满足HARQ时序要求,所以HARQ功能需要部署在DU。对于上行HARQ,各个DU在收到上行数据后,如果CRC校验成功可以回传给CU并向终端设备反馈ACK,如果CRC校验失败则既不向CU回传数据也不向终端设备反馈NACK。终端设备如果收到ACK就能确认数据发送成功,如果在指定反馈时间点收不到ACK则确认数据发送失败,然后可以进行相应的重传动作。对于下行HARQ,如果不能保证每个DU都能收到一致的ACK/NACK反馈,可以不使用HARQ功能,或者使用bundling功能。
步骤S1002:该多个数据单元DU接收该第一消息。
具体地,该多个DU各自解析出该第一消息中的信息中的时间戳和第二消息,当该第一消息中还包含上述其他调度信息时,该多个DU也会解析出这些信息。
步骤S1003:该多个DU均在该时间戳指示的时间向终端设备发送该第二消息。
具体地,该多个DU发送该第二消息使用的频域资源相同,该多个DU发送该第二消息使用的频域资源可以预先定义在协议中,也可以由该第一消息中携带信息来指示。举例来说,该多个DU需要在SFN2,子帧3的数据块RB10-15同时发送数据包TB1(属于该第二消息)给该终端设备。为实现这一功能,首先TB1由High MAC生成,再传输给low MAC进行发送。在给low MAC传输TB1的同时,还需要指示具体的发送时刻(即时间戳)。表示发送时刻的信息可以是具体的帧号、子帧号、时隙号、符号索引中的一项或其中若干项的组合,也可以是一个表示时刻的索引值(例如以10秒钟为一个周期,共10000毫秒,索引值的取值范围是0-9999,对应这10000ms)。发送时刻信息(即时间戳)和数据包TB1(即第二消息)可以组合成一个新TB(即第一消息),该新TB的结构可以如图11所示。
可选的,该第一消息可以采用静态或半静态的方式预先配置,还可以采用动态调度,另外,当该第一消息还包括其他调度信息时,该第一消息的结构可以如图12所示。
可选的,如果除下行数据信道外,还需要使用下行控制信道(例如,为支持对多个终 端设备使用的资源进行调度),该第一消息可以采用图13所示的数据结构。其中,相对于以上两种结构新增了一个控制信道调度信息,用于指示控制信道具体的CCE位置、聚集级别、调制方式中的至少一个。
可选的,该多个DU后续还可以接收该终端设备发送的第三消息,该多个DU中各个DU接收到的第三消息相同。然后,该多个DU将接收到的第三消息发送给该CU。
在图10所示的方法中,中心单元CU将多个DU发送第一消息,该第一消息中携带时间戳,这样该多个DU就可以根据该时间戳在相同的时间向该终端设备发送相同的第二消息,这样终端设备在接收该第二消息就不会受到该多个DU的相互干扰且有增强效果。
