Description

一种链路恢复方法、终端设备及网络设备
本申请要求于2017年11月27日提交中国专利局、申请号为201711209646.0、申请名称为“一种链路恢复方法、终端设备及网络设备”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,尤其涉及一种链路恢复方法、终端设备及网络设备。
背景技术
随着业务需求量的不断增加,无线通信系统的频谱资源日益稀缺,具有更大的可用带宽的高频频段,成为下一代无线通信系统的候选频段。
在高频频段的信道中,通常使用波束作为信号承载。而波束在高频信道下的绕射能力差,当波束被阻挡时,通信会中段,此时需要快速恢复通信链路。
为了快速恢复通信链路,基站需要给终端设备配置候选参考信号集合(candidate beam identification reference signal set),用于恢复终端设备与网络设备的通信链路。其中,基站为候选参考信号集合中的每一个参考信号配置非竞争的随机接入信道(random access channel,RACH)资源,当发生链路失败时,终端设备则使用与该候选参考信号集合关联的RACH资源传输波束失败恢复请求/链路失败恢复请求(beam failure recovery request),当基站接收该波束失败恢复请求/链路失败恢复请求后,则恢复通信链路。
为了确保恢复通信链路的成功率,通常候选参考信号集合会包含多个参考信号。由于基站会为每个参考信号配置RACH资源,则候选参考信号集合中的参考信号越多,则需要更多的RACH资源,从而造成上行资源开销较大的问题。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供一种链路恢复方法,用以解决现有技术中存在的上行资源开销较大的技术问题。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种链路恢复方法,在该方法中,网络设备首先为终端设备配置M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源及N1个第一参考信号,该链路恢复请求信号用于在该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路失败时恢复该通信链路或重配新链路的信号,该M个资源与该N1个第一参考信号相关联,该第一参考信号用于识别新链路,然后通过第一信令,将该M个资源的配置信息指示给该终端设备,然后该终端设备根据该N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号,和/或根据该N1第一参考信号与N3个第三参考信号,从M个资源中确定出P个资源用于承载链路恢复请求信号,并从该P个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源中选择至少一个资源用于承载并发送该链路恢复请求信号,其中,所述M个资源包含所述P个资源,该第二参考信号用于检测链路失败,该第三参考信号与物理下行控制信道PDCCH满足准共址QCL假设关系,M、N1,N2,N3,P为大于等于1的整数。
在上述技术方案中,当网络设备为终端设备配置用于恢复该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路的多个参考信号以及对应的资源后,还会对该多个参考信号及资源进行进一步筛选,例如,筛除该多个参考信号用于链路失败检测和/或与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的部分参考信号以及与该部分参考信号相关联的资源,从而网络设备和终端设备可以只使用该多个参考信号以及对应的资源中的一部分来恢复该通信链路,而对于筛除的参考信号,自然也无需再占用用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,例如可以将筛除的参考信号对应的用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源释放掉,从而可以在不影响通信链路恢复的成功率的前提下,节约上行资源的开销。

(3)波束(beam),是一种通信资源。波束可以是宽波束,或者窄波束,或者其他类型波束。形成波束的技术可以是波束赋形技术或者其他技术手段。波束赋形技术可以具体为数字波束赋形技术,模拟波束赋形技术,混合数字/模拟波束赋形技术。不同的波束可以认为是不同的资源。通过不同的波束可以发送相同的信息或者不同的信息。可选的,可以将具有相同或者类似的通信特征的多个波束视为是一个波束。一个波束内可以包括一个或多个天线端口,用于传输数据信道,控制信道和探测信号等,例如,发射波束可以是指信号经天线发射出去后在空间不同方向上形成的信号强度的分布,接收波束可以是指从天线上接收到的无线信号在空间不同方向上的信号强度分布。可以理解的是,形成一个波束的一个或多个天线端口也可以看作是一个天线端口集。
本申请实施例中,也可以将“波束”称为“参考信号”或者“赋形波束”等。也就是说,本文对于“波束”的名称不作限制,只要表达的是如上的概念即可。
(4)波束对(beam pair link,BPL),波束对的概念建立在波束的概念上。一个波束对通常包括一个发送端的发送波束和一个接收端的接收波束。例如一个波束对可以包括基站的发送波束和UE的接收波束。
(5)准共址(Quasi-Co-Location,QCL)假设关系,可以用来辅助描述终端设备的接收侧波束赋形信息及接收流程,该QCL可以包括一些空间特性参数,如出发角相关参数,例如,水平向出发角(Azimuth angle of Departure,AoD),垂直向出发角(Zenith angle of Departure,ZoD),水平向角度扩展(Azimuth angle spread of Departure,ASD),垂直向角度扩展(Zenith angle spread of Departure,ZSD);或到达角相关参数,例如,水平向到达角(Azimuth angle of Arrival,AoA),垂直向出发角(Zenith angle of Arrival,ZoA),水平向角度扩展(Azimuth angle spread of Arrival,ASA),垂直向角度扩展(Zenith angle spread of Arrival,ZSA),空间接收参数(Spatial Rx parameter),延迟扩展、多普勒扩展、多普勒频移、平均增益和平均延迟等。这些空间特性参数描述了参考信号天线端口间的空间信道 特性。从而可完成终端设备接收侧波束赋形或接收处理过程的辅助。当然,该QCL包括的空间特性参数也可以为除上述参数外的其他参数,在此不作限制。

(9)链路恢复请求信号:用于在终端设备与网络设备之间的通信链路失败时,或者在通信链路失败之后,恢复该通信链路或重配新链路的信号,也可以称为波束恢复请求信号、波束失败恢复请求信号、链路失败恢复请求信号、链路重配信号、链路失败重配信号、链路重配请求信号、链路失败重配请求信号中的任意一个,当然,也可以有其他名称,在此不作限制。
另外,本文中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本文中字符“/”,如无特殊说明,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
接下来介绍本申请实施例的应用场景作简要介绍。
请参考图1,为本申请实施例的一种应用场景。在图1中包括基站和位于该基站的覆盖范围内的终端设备,基站与终端设备之间通过多个波束对进行数据传输,例如,基站通过下行发送波束1向终端设备发送下行数据,终端设备通过上行接收波束2接收基站发送的下行数据。
由于高频频段会导致较大的无线传播的损耗,而波束赋形技术可以将传输信号的能量限制在某个波束方向内,从而提高天线增益,因此,在无线通信系统中通常使用波束赋形技术来补偿传播过程中的上述损耗,例如,使用基于波束赋形的参考信号传输机制来进行数据传输,其中,波束赋形的参考信号可包括广播信道,同步信号,以及小区特定的参考 信号等。
当参考信号基于波束赋形技术进行传输时,一旦终端设备发生移动,可能出现传输信号对应的赋形波束的方向不再匹配移动后的终端设备的位置,因此,终端设备在与基站的通信过程中,需要在不同赋形波束间的频繁地切换。为了保证赋形波束间切换的成功率,在切换之前,需要获取各个赋形波束对应的信道质量。例如,该信道质量可以由终端设备基于波束赋形后的同步信号或小区特定参考信号来进行测量,然后由终端设备将测量结果通过物理上行控制信道或物理上行共享信道上报给基站。
该信道质量的测量过程如图2所示:首先,基站向终端设备发送多个赋形波束,然后终端设备对基站发送的多个赋形波束进行测量,选择测量结果较优的W个赋形波束,并将较优的W个赋形波束的BSI上报给基站,如图2(a)所示,这W个赋形波束为基站的下行发送波束。然后,基站分别对多个上下行发送波束进行训练,确定与上下行发送波束对应的接收波束,如图2(e)及图2(f)所示,完成对下行发送波束和下行接收波束的测量。采用同样的方式完成上行发送波束和上行接收波束的测量,如图2(b)、图2(c)以及图2(d)所示,在此不再赘述。
当完成上述测量过程后,基站则获取和终端设备通信较优的N个波束对BPL,该N个波束对BPL可以用于下行传输的或者用于上行传输的,例如,该N个波束对BPL为N个<Bx,B’x>,和或N个<By,B’y>,Bx代表基站的发送波束,即下行发送波束,B’x代表终端设备的接收波束,即下行接收波束,By代表终端设备的发送波束,即上行发送波束,B’y代表基站的接收波束,即上行接收波束。
为了防止波束被阻挡的情况下基站和终端设备通信中段,当基站从多个时间单元获取多个波束对BPL后,则从这多个波束对BPL中确定出候选参考信号集合。当然,候选参考信号集合的配置不限于这种方式,在此就不一一例举。且,基站会为候选参考信号集合中的每个参考信号配置对应的上行资源,如随机接入资源或者物理上行控制信道资源,当终端设备确定与基站的通信链路失败时,则需要恢复与基站的通信连接,此时则通过与候选参考信号集合中的一个或多个参考信号关联的RACH资源发送波束失败恢复请求/链路失败恢复请求,重新恢复下行链路。
由于现有技术中,候选参考信号集合通常会包含多个参考信号,而多个参考信号需要配置更多的RACH资源,从而造成上行资源开销较大的问题。
鉴于此,本发明实施例提供一种链路恢复方法,在该方法中,网络设备首先为终端设备配置M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源及N1个第一参考信号,该链路恢复请求信号用于在该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路失败时恢复该通信链路或重配新链路的信号,该M个资源与该N1个第一参考信号相关联,该第一参考信号用于识别新链路,然后通过第一信令,将该配置信息指示给该终端设备,然后该终端设备根据该N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号,和/或根据该N1第一参考信号与N3个第三参考信号,从M个资源中确定出P个资源用于承载链路恢复请求信号,并从该P个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源中选择至少一个资源用于承载并发送该链路恢复请求信号,其中,所述M个资源包含所述P个资源,该第二参考信号用于检测链路失败,该第三参考信号与物理下行控制信道PDCCH满足准共址QCL假设关系,M、N1,N2,N3,P为大于等于1的整数。
在上述技术方案中,当网络设备为终端设备配置用于恢复该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路的多个参考信号以及对应的资源后,还会对该多个参考信号及资源进行进一 步筛选,例如,筛除该多个参考信号用于链路失败检测和/或与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的部分参考信号以及与该部分参考信号相关联的资源,从而网络设备和终端设备可以只使用该多个参考信号以及对应的资源中的一部分来恢复该通信链路,而对于筛除的参考信号,自然也无需再占用用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,例如可以将筛除的参考信号对应的用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源释放掉,从而可以在不影响通信链路恢复的成功率的前提下,节约上行资源的开销。
下面结合附图介绍本申请实施例提供的技术方案,在下面的介绍过程中,以将本发明提供的技术方案应用在图1所示的应用场景中,以网络设备为基站,终端设备为UE为例。
请参考图3,为本申请实施例提供的一种链路恢复方法,该方法的流程描述如下:
步骤31:基站向UE发送第一信令。
在本申请实施例中,第一信令用于配置M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,该链路恢复请求信号用于在该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路失败时恢复该通信链路或重配新链路的信号。该链路恢复请求信号也可以称为链路重配请求信号,第一信令可以为媒体接入控制(media access control-CE,MAC-CE)信令,或者可以为下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)信令,或者可以为无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令,在此不作限制。在下面的描述中,将以该信号称为链路恢复请求信号为例进行说明。
由于该用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源可以为PUCCH资源或者PRACH资源或者其他信道资源,在下面的描述中,该用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源为PRACH资源为例进行说明。基站可以从多个PRACH资源中随机选择一部分作为UE用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,也可以采用其他方式为UE配置该M个资源,在此不作限制。为了更加完整地描述本申请中的链路恢复方法,下面以基站将与多个参考信号对应的信道资源作为该M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源为例进行说明。
在本申请实施例中,在基站执行步骤31之前还可以包括步骤32:基站为UE配置M个资源。
在本申请实施例中,基站可以先为UE配置多个参考信号,然后则根据该参考信号配置该M个资源,该参考信号可以包含N1个第一参考信号、N2个第二参考信号以及N3个第三参考信号。基站可以同时为UE配置这三个参考信号,也可以先配置第一参考信号,然后在配置第二参考信号,最后配置第三参考信号,也可以是先配置第二参考信号,然后配置第三参考信号最后配置第一参考信号,也就是说这三个参考信号的配置顺序不作限制。当然,基站也可以确定出其他用途的参考信号,在本申请实施例中仅以基站为UE配置N1个第一参考信号、N2个第二参考信号以及N3个第三参考信号为例进行说明,M、N1,N2,N3为大于等于1的整数。
下面对第一参考信号、第二参考信号以及第三参考信号的作用进行说明。
第一参考信号用于识别新链路,其中,识别新链路即UE可以通过测量N1个第一参考信号的质量,从中选择与一个或多个满足预设条件的第一参考信号对应的PRACH资源,确定该资源为UE和基站进行通信的新链路的过程,该预设条件可以是高于预设门限。或者,第一参考信号也可以称为该基站为UE配置的用于恢复该UE与该基站之间的通信链路的参考信号,也可以称为信道质量满足预定门限条件的参考信号。该预定门限条件可以是大于等于一个具体参数的取值,例如,可以以参考信号的BSI为依据设置门限条件,以 RSPR为例,该预定门限条件可以是RSPR大于等于-60dBm。当然,也可以是其他门限条件,在此不作限制。
第二参考信号用于检测链路失败,即UE可以通过检测第二参考信号的信道质量来确定UE与基站之间的通信链路是否失败,当所有第二参考信号的信道质量均低于预设的阈值时,或者当N2个第二参考信号中的预设数量的第二参考信号的信道质量低于预设的阈值时,则确定UE与基站之间的通信链路失败。需要说明的是,可选的,这里的第二参考信号为与PDCCH的DMRS满足QCL假设关系的参考信号,在此不再赘述。
第三参考信号为与物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)满足准共址QCL假设关系的参考信号,即与PDCCH的解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)满足QCL假设关系的参考信号。
基站为UE配置多个参考信号的过程与现有技术相同,在此不再赘述。
当基站为UE配置多个参考信号后,则基站根据这多个参考信号中的第一参考信号为UE配置该M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源。在本申请实施例中,基站为UE配置的M个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源与N1个第一参考信号相关联。即N1个第一参考信号中的参考信号与PRACH资源为一一对应的关系,也可以是N1个第一参考信号中的多个第一参考信号配置同一个PRACH资源,也可以是基站为一个第一参考信号配置多个PRACH资源,在此不作限制。
需要说明的是,由于M个资源与N1个第一参考信号相关联,因此,基站发送的第一信令中,可以只指示M个资源,则UE可以根据M个资源便获知基站为其配置的N1个第一参考信号;或者基站可以在第一信令中同时指示M个资源以及N1个第一参考信号,在本申请实施例中不作限制。
步骤33:UE从P个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源中选择至少一个资源用于承载并发送该链路恢复请求信号。
当UE接收基站发送的第一信令后,UE则获知基站为其配置的M个资源。由于该M个资源是用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路的,若该M个资源被占用,例如,该M个资源中的某个资源对应的参考信号被用于检测UE与基站之间的通信链路是否失败,或者该某个资源对应的参考信号与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系,则当UE与基站发生链路失败时,UE则可能无法使用该资源迅速恢复与基站的通信,因此,在本申请实施例中,当UE获知M个资源后,需要从M个资源中选择P个资源用来承载该链路恢复请求信号,这样,当UE确定与基站之间的通信链路失败时,则从P个资源中选择一个或多个资源发送该链路请求信号。
在本申请实施例中,该M个资源包含该P个资源,该P个资源的确定方式有如下两种:
第一种方式:
该P个资源是UE根据该N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号确定的资源和/或该P个资源是UE根据该N1第一参考信号与N3个第三参考信号确定的资源,P为大于等于1且小于M的整数。具体来讲,该P个资源可以是UE根据第一参考信号及第二参考信号确定的,也可以是UE根据第一参考信号及第三参考信号确定的,也可以是UE根据第一参考信号、第二参考信号以及第三参考信号确定。
第二种方式:
该P个资源是UE根据基站的发送的指令确定。例如,基站可以向UE指示一部分资源,该资源即为P个资源,或者M个资源中除基站指示的该部分资源外的剩余资源为P个资源等。
下面则对这两种方式进行详细说明。
针对第一种方式:
该P个资源与该N1个第一参考信号中除目标参考信号外的参考信号相关联,其中,该目标参考信号为该N2个第二参考信号中的至少一个参考信号和/或该N3个第三参考信号中的至少一个参考信号。所述P个资源是所述M个资源中与N1个第一参考信号中的目标参考信号不关联的的资源中的至少一个资源,或所述P个资源是所述M个资源中与N1个第一参考信号中除目标参考信号外的参考信号相关联的的资源中的至少一个资源。即,在本申请实施例中,将M个资源中与第二参考信号和/或第三参考信号相关联的资源去除,从而UE只使用剩下的资源恢复通信链路,从而N1个第一参考信号中与第二参考信号和/或第三参考信号相同的参考信号也无需再占用用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,从而减小上行资源的开销。
在本申请实施例中,目标参考信号可以有如下四种情况:
第一种情况:目标参考信号为第一参考信号中用于链路失败检测的参考信号。在这种情况下,目标参考信号为N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号的交集。请参考图4,假设N1个第一参考信号构成集合A,N2个第二参考信号构成集合B,则目标参考信号为集合C包含的参考信号。
第二种情况:目标参考信号为候第一考信号中与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的参考信号。在这种情况下,目标参考信号为N1个第一参考信号与N3个第三参考信号的交集。请参考图5,假设N1个第一参考信号构成集合A,N3个第三参考信号构成集合D,则目标参考信号为集合E包含的参考信号。
第三种情况:目标参考信号为第一参考信号中既能够用于链路失败检测也能够与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的参考信号。在这种情况下,目标参考信号为N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号以及N3个第三参考信号的交集。请参考图6,假设N1个第一参考信号构成集合A,N3个第三参考信号构成集合D,N2个第二参考信号构成集合B,则目标参考信号为集合F包含的参考信号。
第四种情况:目标参考信号为第一参考信号中与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的参考信号与候选参考信号中用于链路失败检测的参考信号的之和。在这种情况下,目标参考信号为两个交集的和,第一个交集为N1个第一参考信号与N2个第二参考信号的交集,第二个交集为N1个第一参考信号与N3个第三参考信号的交集。请参考图7,假设N1个第一参考信号构成集合A,N3个第三参考信号构成集合D,N2个第二参考信号构成集合B,则目标参考信号为集合C和集合E包含的参考信号。
当然,目标参考信号也可以有其他种组合情况,在本申请实施例中不一一例举。
由于UE确定目标参考信号需要获知基站为其配置的N2第二参考信号和/或N3个第三参考信号,因此,请参考图3A,在执行步骤33之前,本申请实施例还包括:
步骤34:基站发送第二信令或第三信令。
在本申请实施例中,该第二信令指示该N3个第三参考信号,其中,该N3个第三参考信号中的至少一个参考信号为该目标参考信号。第一信令的信令类型可以为RRC,第二信 令的信令可以为RRC或者MAC-CE或者DCI;第一信令的类型也可以是MAC-CE,第二信令的信令类型可以是DCI。第三信令的信令类型可以参照第二信令,在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,第一信令和第二信令可以是多个信令也可以是一条信令。第二信令和第三信令也可以为同一条信令。
在本申请实施例中,该第二信令可以直接指示N3个第三参考信号的索引或者其他标识信息,或者该第二信令用于指示N3个第三参考信号的QCL信息,QCL信息中指示PDCCH的DMRS与第三参考信号满足QCL假设关系,也就间接指示了第三参考信号。
在本申请实施例中,该第二信令除了指示N3个第三参考信号,还可以隐式地指示如下信息,即该第二信令的同一个字段可以指示N3个第三参考信号,还可以指示如下信息:
第一种:该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的该目标参考信号检测链路失败。
也就是说,当UE接收该第二信令后,则确定了N3个第三参考信号以及确定使用N1个第一参考信号中与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的第一参考信号来检测链路是否失败。
第二种:第二信令用于指示UE使用该N3个第三参考信号检测链路失败。
也就是说,当UE接收该第二信令后,则确定了N3个第三参考信号即为N2个第二参考信号。在这种情况下,第二信令既指示了PDCCH的QCL信息,即PDCCH的DMRS与N3个第三参考信号满足QCL关系,也指示了N2个第二参考信号的QCL信息。
第三种:该第二信令用于指示UE禁止使用该目标参考信号识别新链路。
也就是说,当UE接收该第二信令后,则确定了N3个第三参考信号以及确定不使用N1个第一参考信号中与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的第一参考信号来识别新链路。
第四种:该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的除该目标参考信号外的参考信号识别新链路。
也就是说,当UE接收该第二信令后,则确定了N3个第三参考信号以及确定使用N1个第一参考信号中除与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的参考信号外的第一参考信号来识别新链路。
第五种:该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的该目标参考信号检测链路失败以及该第二信令用于指示UE禁止使用该目标参考信号识别新链路。
第六种:该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的该目标参考信号检测链路失败以及该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的除该目标参考信号外的参考信号识别新链路。
第七种:第二信令用于指示UE使用该N3个第三参考信号检测链路失败以及该第二信令用于指示UE禁止使用该目标参考信号识别新链路
第八种:第二信令用于指示UE使用该N3个第三参考信号检测链路失败以及该第二信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的除该目标参考信号外的参考信号识别新链路。
上述第六种至第八种指示的内容为前述四种指示内容的组合,在此不再赘述。当然,本领域技术人员也可以根据第一种至第八种情况,确定出其他指示内容的组合,在此不再一一例举。
需要说明的是,基站指示UE为其分配的N3个第三参考信号后,基站也可以根据该 信令确定出该目标参考信号,从而基站也确定了前述第一种至第八种指示内容。
另外需要说明的是,“禁止使用”可以理解为“不使用”,例如,第二信令用于指示UE禁止使用该目标参考信号识别新链路,可以理解为第二信令用于指示UE不使用该目标参考信号识别新链路。基站确定使用该N1个第一参考信号中的该目标参考信号检测链路失败,可以理解为基站激活该N1个第一参考信号集合中的目标参考信号为用于链路失败检测,同理,基站确定不使用该目标参考信号识别新链路,可以理解为基站去激活该N1个第一参考信号中的目标参考信号。信令中其他指示内容可以采用同样的方式理解,在此不再赘述。
基站确定不使用某个参考信号用来识别新链路,则基站可以释放与该参考信号关联的资源。例如,基站指示了N3个第三参考信号,则基站可以释放N1个第一参考信号中与该指示的参考信号中重合的参考信号关联的PRACH资源。
需要说明的是,基站根据该信令去激活该目标参考信号或激活该目标参考信号为用于链路失败检测的参考信号为可选步骤,即该步骤不是必须执行的。
在本申请实施例中,该第三信令指示该N2个第二参考信号,其中,该N2个第二参考信号中的至少一个参考信号为该目标参考信号。
在本申请实施例中,该第三信令可以直接指示N2个第二参考信号的索引或者其他标识信息。
在本申请实施例中,该第三信令除了指示N2个第二参考信号,还可以指示如下信息:
第一种:该第三信令用于指示UE禁止使用该N1个第一参考信号中的该目标参考信号识别新链路。
也就是说,当UE接收该第三信令后,则确定了N2个第二参考信号以及确定不使用N1个第一参考信号中用来检测链路失败的参考信号来识别新链路。
第二种:第三信令用于指示UE使用该N1个第一参考信号中的除该目标参考信号外的参考信号识别新链路。
也就是说,当UE接收该第三信令后,则确定了N2个第二参考信号以及确定使用N1个第一参考信号中除用来检测链路失败的参考信号外的第一参考信号来识别新链路。
需要说明的是,基站指示UE为其分配的N2个第二参考信号后,基站也可以根据该信令确定出该目标参考信号,从而基站也确定了前述第一种至第二种指示内容。
另外需要说明的是,基站确定使用该N1个第一参考信号中的除该目标参考信号外的参考信号识别新链路,可以理解为基站去激活该目标参考信号,同理,基站确定不使用该目标参考信号识别新链路,可以理解为基站去激活该N1个第一参考信号中的目标参考信号。
基站确定不使用某个参考信号用来识别新链路,则基站可以释放与该参考信号关联的资源。例如,基站指示了N2个第二参考信号,则基站可以释放N1个第一参考信号中与该指示的参考信号中重合的参考信号关联的PRACH资源。
需要说明的是,基站根据该信令去激活该目标参考信号或激活该目标参考信号为用于链路失败检测的参考信号为可选步骤,即该步骤不是必须执行的。
步骤35:UE确定目标参考信号。
当UE接收基站发送的第二信令或第三信令,则UE确定第二信令中指示的N3个第三参考信号中的至少一个参考信号为目标参考信号或者UE确定第三信令中指示的N2个第 二参考信号中的至少一个参考信号为目标参考信号。
具体来讲,UE在确定N3个第三参考信号后,则确定N3个第三参考信号中与N1个第一参考信号中相同的参考信号,该相同的参考信号即为目标参考信号。或者,当UE确定N2个第二参考信号后,则确定N2个第二参考信号中与N1个第一参考信号中相同的参考信号,该相同的参考信号即为目标参考信号。
在执行完步骤35后,则执行步骤33。
当UE确定目标参考信号后,则UE确定M个资源中除去与目标参考信号关联的资源即为用于承载链路恢复请求信号的P个资源。
例如,目标参考信号为第一参考信号1以及第一参考信号2,且与第一参考信号2关联的PRACH资源为PRACH资源1和PRACH资源2,与第一参考信号3关联的PRACH资源为PRACH资源3,从而,UE确定M个资源中除去PRACH资源1~PRACH资源3,剩余的PRACH资源即为能够用于承载链路恢复请求信号的P个资源。
当UE确定与基站之间的通信链路失败时,或者在通信链路失败之后,则UE可以通过检测与P个资源相关联的第一参考信号的信道质量,根据信道质量从P个资源中选择其中一个或者多个资源发送该链路恢复请求信号,当基站响应该链路恢复请求信号后,则恢复与基站的通信链路。
针对第二种方式:
请参考图3B,在执行步骤33之前,本申请实施例还包括:
步骤36:基站发送第四信令或第五信令或第六信令。
在本申请实施例中,该第四信令指示K1个第一参考信号,其中,该P个资源与所述K1个第一参考信号相关联,该N1个第一参考信号包含所述K1个第一参考信号,该K1为大于等于1且小于等于N1的整数。在本申请实施例中,第一信令的信令类型可以为RRC,第四信令的信令可以为RRC或者MAC-CE或者DCI;第一信令的类型也可以是MAC-CE,第四信令的信令类型可以是DCI。第五信令与第六信令的信令类型可以参考第四信令,在此不再赘述。
在本申请实施例中,该第四信令可以直接指示K1个第一参考信号的索引或者其他标识信息。该第四信令指示该K1个第一参考信号为最终用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路的参考信号。当K1=N1时,即基站为UE配置的M个资源都可以用来承载链路恢复请求信号,P=M。在这种情况下,基站也可以不发送该第四信令。例如,基站和UE约定,若在一预设时间内没有发送除第一信令外的其他信令,则默认该P=M。当然,基站和UE也可以采用其他实现方式实现上述目标,在此不作限制。
需要说明的是,基站向UE指示K1个第一参考信号后,基站也可以根据该信令确定出与该K1个第一参考信号关联的资源为P个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源。
另外需要说明的是,基站确定P个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,可以理解为基站激活该K1个第一参考信号用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路,或者基站可以释放N1个第一参考信号中除该K1个第一参考信号外的第一参考信号相关联PRACH资源。
当然,基站根据该信令激活该K1个第一参考信号用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路或释放N1个第一参考信号中除该K1个第一参考信号外的第一参考信号相关联PRACH资源均为可选步骤,即该步骤不是必须执行的。
在本申请实施例中,该第五信令指示K2个第一参考信号,其中,该P个资源与该N1 个第一参考信号中除该K2个第一参考信号外的至少一个第一参考信号相关联,该N1个第一参考信号包含该K2个第一参考信号,K2为大于等于1且小于等于N1的整数。
在本申请实施例中,该第五信令可以直接指示K2个第一参考信号的索引或者其他标识信息。该第五信令指示该K2个第一参考信号为最终不用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路的参考信号。
需要说明的是,基站向UE指示K2个第一参考信号后,基站也可以根据该信令确定出与该K2个第一参考信号关联的资源不是用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源。
另外需要说明的是,基站确定与该K2个第一参考信号关联的资源不是用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,可以理解为基站去激活该K2个第一参考信号,或者基站可以释放与该K2个第一参考信号相关联PRACH资源。
当然,基站根据该信令去激活该K2个第一参考信号或释放与该K2个第一参考信号相关联PRACH资源均为可选步骤,即该步骤不是必须执行的。
在本申请实施例中,该第六指令指示L个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,其中,该P个资源为该M个资源中除该L个资源外的资源或该P个资源为该L个资源,M个资源包含L个资源。
在本申请实施例中,该第六信令可以直接指示L个用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源的索引或者其他标识信息。该第六信令指示该L个资源为最终用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源或者该L个资源为最终不用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源。具体第六信令指示的L个资源的所表征的含义可由基站和UE之间进行约定。例如,基站和UE约定好若信令中指示L个资源则默认该资源为用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,则UE在接收到该信令后,确定该L个资源为P个资源。
需要说明的是,基站向UE指示L个资源后,基站也确定该L个资源为用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源或该L个资源不用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源。
另外需要说明的是,基站确定该L个资源为用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,可以理解为基站激活与L个资源相关联的第一参考信号。以及,基站该L个资源不用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,可以理解为基站去激活与M个资源中除L个资源外的资源相关联的第一参考信号,或者理解为释放该L个资源。
当然,基站根据该信令激活与L个资源相关联的第一参考信号或者基站去激活与M个资源中除L个资源外的资源相关联的第一参考信号,或者释放该L个资源,均为可选步骤,即该步骤不是必须执行的。
在执行完步骤36后,则执行步骤33。
步骤33的执行过程与第一种方式中相同,在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,该第一信令、该第二信令、该第三信令、该第四信令、该第五信令、该第六信令分别为层一信令、层二信令以及层三信令中的至少一个信令。该层一信令可以为MAC-CE信令,该层二信令可以为DCI信令,该层三信令可以为RRC信令。第一信令~第六信令中的任意一个信令可以采用三种信令方式的任意一种或者多种,例如,第一信令可以发送多次,第一次采用层三信令,第二次采用层二信令,当然,也可以是一次发送时拆分在不同的信令中,在此不作限制。
第一信令与第二信令的分别是:可选的RRC与RRC和或MAC-CE和或DCI(优选的是RRC和MAC-CE或DCI);可选的第一信令是MAC-CE,第二信令是DCI.
另外,由于层一信令和层二信令的传输速度要高于层三信令,因此,为了使UE能够尽快确定用于承载链路恢复请求信号的资源,基站发送的第二信令~第六信令的信令层级可以高于第一信令。例如,当第一信令采用RRC信令时,第二信令~第六信令可以采用MAC-CE信令或者DCI信令;当第一信令采用MAC-CE信令时,第二信令~第六信令可以采用DCI信令。
接下来将通过具体的实例来说明本申请实施例中的目标参考信号以及基站对目标参考信号以及与目标参考信号相关联的PRACH资源的一种可能的处理过程。在下面的实例中,以基站采用步骤31中的方法,为UE配置了三个参考信号集合,分别为集合A、集合B和集合C,集合A为N3个第三参考信号构成的集合,即集合A为与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的参考信号集合,集合B为N2个第二参考信号构成的集合,即集合B为用于检测链路失败的参考信号集合,集合C为N1个第一参考信号构成的集合,即集合C为用于恢复UE与基站之间的通信链路的参考信号集合。其中,集合A为资源池集合M的子集,集合B为资源池集合N的子集,集合C为资源池集合K的子集。
请参考图8,资源池集合M、资源池集合N以及资源池集合K中任意两个集合的交集为空集,则此时目标参考信号为空集,基站可以不用释放与集合C中的参考信号关联的PRACH资源。
请参考图9,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集为空集,资源池集合M与资源池集合K的交集不为空集,则当基站通过信令激活集合A时,目标参考信号为集合A在集合C的部分参考信号或集合A在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合A在集合C的部分参考信号或者基站可以去激活集合A在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,目标参考信号为从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图10,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集为空集,资源池集合N与资源池集合K的交集不为空集,则当基站通过信令激活集合B时,目标参考信号为集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或者基站可以去激活集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图11,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集不为空集,资源池集合N与资源池集合K的交集为空集,则此时目标参考信号为空集,基站可以不用释放与集合C中的参考信号关联的PRACH资源。
请参考图12,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集不为空集,资源池集合N与资源池集合K的交集不为空集,则当基站通过信令激活集合B时,目标参考信号为集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或者基站可以去激活集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图13,资源池集合N与资源池集合K相同,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集为空集,且集合B与集合C的和不为集合N,则当基站通过信令激活集合B时,目标参考信号为集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活基站可以去激活集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或者基站可以去激活集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图14,资源池集合N与资源池集合K相同,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的 交集为空集,集合B与集合C的和为集合N,且集合B和集合C没有交集,则当基站通过信令激活集合B时,目标参考信号为空集,则基站可以直接激活资源池集合N中的剩余参考信号作为候选参考信号,此时不用释放任何PRACH资源。
请参考图15,资源池集合N与资源池集合K相同,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集为空集,集合B与集合C的和为集合N,且集合B和集合C有交集,则当基站通过信令激活集合B时,目标参考信号为集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合B在集合C的部分参考信号或者基站可以去激活集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图16,资源池集合N与资源池集合K相同,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集不为空集,集合B与集合C的和不为集合N,则当基站通过信令激活集合A或集合B时,目标参考信号为集合A或集合B在集合C的部分参考信号,或目标参考信号为集合A或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合A或集合B在集合C的部分参考信号,或者基站可以去激活集合A或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图17,资源池集合N与资源池集合K相同,资源池集合M与资源池集合N的交集不为空集,集合B与集合C的和为集合N,则当基站通过信令激活集合A或集合B时,基站可以直接激活资源池集合N中除集合B外的剩余参考信号作为候选参考信号,此时,目标参考信号为集合A或集合B在集合C的部分参考信号,或目标参考信号为集合A或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站还可以去激活集合A或集合B在集合C的部分参考信号,或者基站可以去激活集合A或集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源。
请参考图18A-图18C,资源池集合N、资源池集合M与资源池集合K相同,则当基站通过信令激活集合A时,目标参考信号为集合A在集合C的部分参考信号,或目标参考信号为集合A在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合A在集合C或资源池集合K中的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源,如图18A所示;或者当基站激活集合B时,目标参考信号为集合B在集合C的部分参考信号,或目标参考信号为集合B在资源池集合K的部分参考信号,基站可以去激活集合B在集合C或集合K中的部分参考信号,从而释放与该部分参考信号对应的PRACH资源,如图18B所示;或者当集合A、集合B和集合C均为交集,基站通过信令激活集合A和集合B时,目标参考信号为集合A以及集合B,基站激活集合N中的剩余参考信号作为集合C,释放与集合A以及集合B中的参考信号对应的PRACH资源,如图18C所示。
在上述技术方案中,当网络设备为终端设备配置用于恢复该终端设备与该网络设备之间的通信链路的多个参考信号以及对应的资源后,还会对该多个参考信号及资源进行进一步筛选,例如,筛除该多个参考信号用于链路失败检测和/或与PDCCH满足QCL假设关系的部分参考信号以及与该部分参考信号相关联的资源,从而网络设备和终端设备可以只使用该多个参考信号以及对应的资源中的一部分来恢复该通信链路,而对于筛除的参考信号,自然也无需再占用任何资源,例如可以将筛除的参考信号对应的资源释放掉,从而可以在不影响通信链路恢复的成功率的前提下,节约上行资源的开销。
