背景技术
在第五代移动通信(the 5th Generation mobile communication technology,5G)系统中,基站可以由集中式单元(Centralized Unit,CU)和分布式单元(Distributed Unit,DU)构成,即对原接入网中的基站的功能进行拆分,将基站的部分功能部署在一个CU,将剩余功能部署在多个DU,多个DU共用一个CU,可以节省成本,以及易于网络扩展。
CU和DU的切分可以按照协议栈切分,其中一种可能的方式是将无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)以及分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层部署在CU,其余的无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,RLC)层、介质访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层以及物理层部署在DU。
当终端设备接入小区后,会在网络设备建立相应的该终端设备的上下文,终端设备状态改变后,网络设备会随之处理该终端设备上下文。例如,终端设备从连接态到空闲态,网络设备会释放该终端设备的上下文。此外,5G中,为终端设备引入了一个新的RRC状态/RRC子状态,称之为inactive态(也叫第三态),当终端设备的RRC状态发生变化时,CU需要通知DU进行联动的上下文处理,目前没有相应的方案解决在网络设备功能分离时,CU和DU对终端设备的上下文管理方法。
同时,网络设备发现终端设备发生无线链路失败(Radio Link Failure,RLF),以及切换(Hand Over,HO)场景中也没有相应的方案解决CU和DU对终端设备的上下文管理方法。

具体实施方式
下面将结合附图,对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。
本申请实施例适用于各种形式的包含网络设备中部分功能分离的系统,图1示出了本申请实施例的技术方案的一种应用场景的示意图,如图1所示,该网络设备中部分功能分离为第一网络节点和第二网络节点。
具体地,图2示出了本申请实施例的技术方案的另一种应用场景的示意图,如图2所示,在CRAN架构中,引入了CU-DU的切分,DU可以对应于图1中的第一网络节点,CU对应于图1中的第二网络节点。
应理解,第一网络节点和第二网络节点可以是一个整体网络架构中的两个物理或者逻辑分离模块,也可以是完全独立的两个逻辑网元。
还应理解,该第二网络节点可以进行控制面和用户面分离,形成第二网络节点的用户面和第二网络节点的控制面。
CU具有无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)或者部分RRC控制功能,包含现有基站的所有的协议层功能或者部分协议层功能;比如只包含RRC功能或者部分RRC功能,或者包含RRC功能或者业务数据适配协议(Service Data Adaptation Protocol,SDAP)层功能,或者包含RRC/分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层功能,或者包含RRC/PDCP以及部分无线链路层控制协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)层功能;或者包含RRC/PDCP/媒体介入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层,甚至部分或者全部物理层PHY功能,也不排除其它任何可能性。
DU具有现有基站的全部或者部分协议层功能,即RRC/SDAP/PDCP/RLC/MAC/PHY的部分协议层功能单元,比如包含部分RRC功能和PDCP/RLC/MAC/PHY等协议层功能,或者包含PDCP/RLC/MAC/PHY等协议层功能,或者包含RLC/MAC/PHY等协议层功能或者包含部分RLC/MAC/PHY功能,或者只包含全部或者部分PHY功能;需要注意的是这里提及的各个协议层的功能可能发生变化,均在本申请保护的范围内。
应理解,在本申请实施例中,可以将不同的协议层分别部署在第一网络节点和第二网络节点中,一种可能的实现方式是,在第二网络节点中至少部署第一协议层,在第一网络节点中至少部署第二协议层和第三协议层,
例如,第一协议层可以为RRC层,第二协议层可以为MAC层,第三协议层可以为PHY层。
应理解,上述对第一协议层、第二协议层和第三协议层的列举仅为示例性说明,不应对本申请构成任何限定。该第一协议层和第二协议层也可以为现有协议(例如,LTE协议)或者未来协议中定义的其他协议层,本申请对此并未特别限定。
又例如,在5G网络中,新型的中继节点也有新的技术进展,例如,中继节点仅部署有层2(例如,包括无线链路控制(resource link control,RLC)层、MAC层等)和层1(例如,包括PHY层)的协议栈架构,而未部署层2以上的全部协议栈功能,例如全部RRC层功能。因此,宿主基站产生的数据或信令,需要由中继节点转发给终端设备。
应理解,本申请实施例中的第一网络节点可以对应于CU-DU架构中的DU,也可以对应于上述中继节点,第二网络节点可以对应于CU-DU架构中的CU,也可以对应于上述宿主基站。
图3示出了根据本申请实施例的技术方案的再一种应用场景的示意图,如图3所示,RRC层放在CU,MAC层放在DU。上行RRC消息,DU空口接收到终端设备发送的消息后,经过DU处理后,通过CU-DU之间的接口,将RRC消息发送个CU。下行RRC消息,CU生成后通过CU-DU之间的接口,发送给DU,DU处理后,通过空口发送给终端设备。
图4示出了根据本申请实施例的技术方案的再一种应用场景的示意图,如图4所示,DU具有部分RRC功能,如信令无线承载SRB0的处理,则上述RRC消息可以由DU处理。
应理解,当前第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)将CU-DU之间的接口命名为F1,F1接口上包含控制面(Control Plane,CP)和用户面(User Plane,UP),控制面的传输层协议为流控制传输协议(Stream Control Transmission Protocol,SCTP),传输的应用层消息为F1AP(Application Protocol)消息。用户面的传输层协议为用户层面的GPRS隧道协议(GPRS Tunnelling Protocol-User plane,GTP-U)。
图5示出了根据本申请实施例的技术方案的再一种应用场景的示意图,如图5所示,将CU进行控制面和用户面分离时,CU-CP负责控制面功能,例如SRB的处理,可能具有RRC层和负责处理SRB的PDCP层;CU-UP负责用户面功能,如DRB的管理,与核心网用户面网元对接,可能具有负责处理DRB的SDAP层和PDCP层。
E1接口是CU-CP和CU-UP之间的接口。CU-UP和DU之间是F1-U连接,CU-CP和DU之间是F1-C连接。CU-UP和核心网之间是Ng-U连接,CU-CP和核心网之间是Ng-C连接。
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,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、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、未来的第五代(5th-Generation,5G)通信系统以及CRAN等通信系统。
还应理解,本申请实施例的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,BTS)与基站控制器(Base Station Controller,BSC)的结合,也可以是WCDMA系统中的基站(NodeB,NB)与无线网控制器(Radio Network Controller,RNC),还可以是LTE系统中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,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网络中的接入网设备,比如下一代基站,或未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)网络中的接入网设备等。
具体地,第三代移动通信技术(3rd-Generation,3G)中的UMTS系统,存在无线网络控制节点和基站分离的场景;在LTE系统中,存在有基带模块和射频模块分离的情景,即射频拉远的场景;数据中心(Data Center,DC)场景,需要两个不同的网络之间互联;大小站场景,大小站相互连接存在接口;LTE与Wifi聚合(LTE-Wifi aggregation,LWA)场景;在5G系统中存在各种无小区(non-cell)场景(终端可以在各个小区之间自由随意切换,各个小区之间没有明确的界线),存在一个控制节点和所有小区连接,或者在小区下面连接各个传输节点;CRAN场景,存在BBU切分的场景;CRAN虚拟化场景,BBU的某一部分功能集中部署,虚拟化,另外一部分功能分开部署,两个部分之间存在物理分开部署可能性;应理解,不同系统/制式共存场景都在本申请适用的范围内。
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,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,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(Personal Digital Assistant,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PLMN中的终端设备等。
图6示出了根据本申请实施例的传输方法100的示意性流程图,如图6所示,该传输方法100包括:
S110,第一网络节点接收终端设备发送的第一消息,该第一消息用于请求建立该终端设备的无线资源控制连接;
S120,该第一网络节点向第一系统发送该第一消息;
S130,该第一网络节点接收该第一系统根据该第一消息发送的第二消息,该第二消息包括该终端设备的标识信息,该终端设备的标识信息用于该第一网络节点获取该第一网络节点保存的该终端设备的上下文信息,或者,该第二消息包括该终端设备的上下文信息,该终端设备的上下文信息为接入层的上下文信息。
可选地,该终端设备的上下文信息包括无线资源控制配置、数据无线承载参数、该终端设备的标识信息、小区标识信息和第一接口的连接信息中的至少一种,该第一接口用于该第一网络节点和该第一系统之间进行数据传输和信息交互。
S140,该第一网络节点根据该第二消息携带的该终端设备的标识信息,获取该第一网络节点保存的该终端设备的上下文信息,或者,重建该终端设备的上下文信息。
可选地,该第一消息为RRC连接恢复建立请求消息或RRC连接重建立请求消息。
可选地,该第一网络节点包括无线链路层控制协议层、媒体介入控制层和物理层功能 中的至少一种;和/或该第一系统包括分组数据汇聚协议层、业务数据适配层和无线资源控制功能中的至少一种。
具体而言,终端设备向第一网络节点发送第一消息,该第一消息用于请求建立该终端设备的无线资源控制连接,由于第一网络节点不具备部分RRC功能,将该第一消息转发给该第一系统,该第一系统接收到该第一消息后,对该第一消息进行处理后,向该第一网络节点发送第二消息,该第一网络节点接收该第一系统根据该第一消息发送的第二消息,该第二消息包括该终端设备的标识信息,该终端设备的标识信息用于该第一网络节点获取该第一网络节点保存的该终端设备的上下文信息,或者,该第二消息包括该终端设备的上下文信息。例如,该第一网络节点为DU,该第一系统为CU,终端设备向DU发送RRC连接恢复建立请求消息,DU通过F1接口将该RRC连接恢复建立请求消息转发给CU,CU收到该消息后,若能够恢复该终端设备的RRC连接,则发送F1接口控制面消息给DU,用于指示DU找到DU保存的该终端设备的上下文信息,或者用于指示DU重建该终端设备的上下文信息,DU收到该控制面消息后,找到保存的该终端设备的上下文信息或者重建该终端设备的上下文信息,CU向该终端设备发送RRC消息(该RRC消息通过F1接口发送给DU,由DU转发给该终端设备),用于指示该RRC连接建立成功或者失败。
图7示出了根据本申请实施例的传输方法100的另一示意性流程图,如图7所示,该传输方法100还包括:
S101,该第一系统向该终端设备发送第一命令,该第一命令用于指示该终端设备进入非激活态。
具体而言,该第一系统向该第一网络节点发送第一命令,该第一命令用于指示该终端设备进入非激活态,该第一网络节点不对该第一命令的内容进行解析或更改,将该第一命令经过第一网络节点上部署的协议层进行相应处理后,将处理后的第一命令发送给该终端设备。
例如,该第一命令可以为RRC消息,CU通过RRC消息命令该终端设备进入inactive mode,该RRC消息中携带进入inactive mode指示和该终端设备的resume ID。该第一命令还可能包含是否挂起一个或多个信令无线承载(SRB)/数据无线承载(DRB)的指示和/或对应的无线承载标识信息。该RRC消息由CU通过F1接口发给DU,DU处理后发送给该终端设备。
可选地,该消息为RRC连接释放消息(RRC Connection Release message)。或者,该消息为RRC连接挂起消息(RRC Connection Suspend message)。
需要说明的是,步骤S102也可以发生在步骤S101之前。
S102,该第一系统向该第一网络节点发送第三消息,该第三消息用于向该第一网络节点指示该终端设备进入非激活态。
可选地,该第一系统包括分组数据汇聚协议层、业务数据适配层和无线资源控制层功能中的至少一种。
具体而言,终端设备接入第一网络节点和第一系统管理下的小区,建立RRC连接,第一系统决定将该终端设备置为非激活态(inactive mode),则向该第一网络节点发送第三消息,该第三消息用于向该第一网络节点指示该终端设备进入非激活态。
例如,CU通过F1接口向DU发送指示消息,用于指示该终端设备进行inactive mode。 该指示通过F1接口控制面消息发送,指示消息中包括以下信息中的一种或多种的组合:F1接口的该终端设备的标识信息(F1AP CU侧的终端设备标识信息、F1AP DU侧的终端设备标识信息或一个单独的接口的终端设备标识信息),进入inactive mode指示,重返标识Resume ID(当网络指示UE进入inactive mode时为UE分配的标识,用于UE向网络请求恢复RRC连接时,携带该标识便于网络接入存储的上下文),终端设备的小区无线网络临时标识C-RNTI,终端设备上下文标识信息(用于关联到该终端设备在DU处保存的上下文,例如可以为该终端设备的Context ID,或其他格式的ID),是否挂起一个或多个信令无线承载(SRB)/数据无线承载(DRB)的指示和/或对应的无线承载标识信息。
进一步可选的,CU通过F1接口发送该第一命令给DU时,作为RRC容器container与S102中的第三消息携带在同一个F1AP消息中发送。
应理解,对于终端设备的下行数据传输,第一系统将来自核心网的属于该终端设备的数据发送给第一网络节点,由第一网络节点负责为该终端设备调度空口传输资源,并进一步将下行数据发送给该终端设备;类似的,对于上行数据,终端设备先向第一网络节点请求上行数据传输资源,进而在授权的上行资源上将上行数据发送给第一网络节点,之后由第一网络节点发送给第一系统。
由此可见,空口上是否有该终端设备的上下行数据传输,例如第二网络节点的下行数据缓存是否还有数据待发送,以及终端设备是否有上行数据待发送,第一系统并不一定知道。例如,第一系统已经将属于某终端设备的来自核心网的所有数据发送给第二网络节点,并准备指示该终端设备进入inactive mode,因此,第一系统发送第一命令给终端设备,并发送第三消息给第一网络节点,此时第一网络节点与该终端设备之间还有上行和/或下行数据发送,如果该终端设备收到第一命令后即进入inactive mode,则可能会产生下行数据丢失,和/或,第一网络节点收到第三消息后即挂起该终端设备的数据收发,则可能会产生上行数据的丢失。
可选地,在该第一系统向该终端设备发送第一命令之前,该方法100还包括:
该第一系统确定该第一网络节点的上行或者下行数据发送完毕。
具体而言,该第一系统在发送该第三消息和该第一命令之前,与该第一网络节点协商,待第一网络节点准备好(例如,上下行数据发送完毕后),再发送第一命令和第三消息。具体可以为第一系统发送数据发送状态询问消息给第一网络节点,该数据发送状态询问消息用于询问第一网络节点是否已经完成与该终端设备之间的数据传输,第一网络节点发送响应消息给第一系统,该响应消息用于指示第一系统第一网络节点与该终端设备之间的数据传输是否已经完成。
可选地,该第一系统向该终端设备发送第一命令,该方法100还包括:
该第一系统向该第一网络节点发送该第一命令;
当该第一网络节点确定该第一网络节点的上行或者下行数据发送完毕,该第一网络节点向该终端设备发送该第一命令。
具体而言,该第一网络节点确定该第一命令的内容,即该第一网络节点确定该第一系统即将命令终端设备进入inactive mode,从而进行相应处理,待该第一网络节点准备好(例如,上下行数据发送完毕后),再将第一命令发送给该终端设备,并依据该第三消息的具体内容处理该终端设备的上下文信息。第一网络节点能够知晓第一命令的内容的方式可以 为:
(1)第一网络节点能够解读出第一命令的内容,例如具备解码RRC消息的能力;
(2)携带该第一命令的F1接口消息中携带指示,用于表明该第一命令的内容,例如指示终端设备进入inactive mode;
(3)通过携带该第一命令的F1AP消息的类型推断出该第一命令的内容,例如第一命令和第三消息通过同一条F1AP消息中携带,通过第三消息的内容可以推断出该第一命令的内容为指示终端设备进入inactive mode。
可选地,在该第一系统向该终端设备发送第一命令之前,该方法100还包括:
该第一系统根据第一接口信息,确定该第一网络节点与该终端设备之间的数据传输完毕。
例如,通过F1用户面接口的流控信息,第一系统能够得知第一网络节点与该终端设备之间的数据传输已经结束。
可选地,第一网络节点上报其与该终端设备关联的数据缓存状态,当下行数据缓存为0时即表示下行数据发送完毕。
可选地,第一系统配置第一网络节点数据缓存状态为0时,进行数据缓存状态上报。
可选地,第一网络节点周期性的告知第一系统其数据缓存状态。
可选的,该周期性上报由第一网络节点配置。
可选地,该第一系统向该终端设备发送第一命令,该方法100还包括:
该第一系统通过F1消息将第一命令和第三信息发送给第一网络节点,若此时第一网络节点与该终端设备之间有数据/信令传输,则第一网络节点发送表征指示过程失败的F1消息给第一系统,若此时第一网络节点与该终端设备之间数据/信令传输结束,则发送表征指示过程成功的F1消息给第一系统,并将第一命令发送给该终端设备。其中,第一网络节点向第一系统发送表征指示过程成功的F1消息与第一网络节点将第一命令发送给该终端设备的先后顺序不受限定。
S103,该第一系统保存该终端设备的上下文信息。
具体而言,该第一系统为该终端设备保存上下文信息包括以下信息中的一种或多种的组合:RRC配置信息,当前安全上下文,PDCP状态,C-RNTI,全局小区标识ECGI,物理小区标识物理小区标识PCI,resume ID,S1/NG接口连接相关信息(例如,可以为接口控制面UE标识,接口用户面隧道信息TEID,IP地址等),F1接口连接相关信息(例如,可以为接口控制面UE标识,接口用户面隧道信息TEID,IP地址等)。
S104,该第一网络节点保存该终端设备的上下文信息。
例如,DU为该终端设备保存的上下文信息包括以下信息中的一种或多种的组合:RRC配置信息,DRB参数(例如DRB的标识信息和QoS参数信息),resume ID(如果CU提供的话,否则,DU可以根据接口终端设备的标识信息对应DU内部终端设备的标识信息),F1接口连接相关信息(例如,可以为接口控制面UE标识,接口用户面隧道信息TEID,IP地址等),MAC配置信息(例如逻辑信道标识信息和调度优先级信息(例如优先比特率PBR和令牌桶深度BSD等))。
可选的,DU重置为该终端设备配置的MAC。
进一步可选地,DU重建立为该终端设备挂起的无线承载(Radio Bear,RB)对应的 RLC。
S105,该终端设备根据该第一命令,存储该终端设备的上下文信息。
