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/媒体接入控制(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和第二协议层,在第一网络节点中至少部署第三协议层和第四协议层,
例如,第一协议层可以为RRC层,第二协议层可以为PDCP层,第三协议层可以为MAC层,第四协议层可以为PHY层。
应理解,上述对第一协议层、第二协议层、第三协议层和第四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,或者CU和DU对应于上述宿主基站,DU和UE之间通过一个中继节点或者多个中继节点进行传输,UE的上一跳中继节点即对应第一网络节点。
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,本申请实施例的技术方案适用于NR CU-DU架构系统,对于NR CU-DU系统架构下,CU和DU之间的接口为F1接口,基站1(gNB1)和基站2(gNB2)之间的接口为Xn接口,基站与核心网(5GC)之间的接口为NG接口。
图4和图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4所示,本申请实施例的技术方案适用于LTE CU-DU架构系统,区别在于CU和DU之间是V1接口,该V1接口与F1接口类似,基站(eNB)之间的接口为X2接口,CU可以与核心网EPC有连接,也可以与NR核心网5GC有连接。
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)。
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是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中的第一网络节点可以为图1中的第一网络节点,还可以为图2中的DU,该传输方法100中的第二网络节点可以为图1中的第二网络节点,还可以为图2中的CU,该方法100包括:
S110,第二网络节点确定至少一个系统信息中每个系统信息的有效区域;
S120,该第二网络节点向第一网络节点发送第一指示信息,该第一网络节点接收来自于该第二网络节点的该第一指示信息,该第一指示信息可以用于指示该至少一个系统信息中每个系统信息的有效区域;
S130,该第一网络节点向终端设备发送该至少一个系统信息和该第一指示信息,该终端设备接收来自于该第一网络节点的该至少一个系统信息和该第一指示信息,以便于该终端设备获知该至少一个系统信息所应用的有效区域。
应理解,该至少一个系统信息中每个系统信息的有效区域可以互不相同,也可以部分相同,或者,每个系统信息的有效区域都相同。
可选地,该第一网络节点包括无线链路层控制协议层、媒体接入控制层和物理层功能中的至少一种;和/或
该第二网络节点包括无线资源控制协议层、业务数据适配层和分组数据汇聚协议层中的至少一种。
系统信息(System Information,SI)的种类可以包括主信息块(Master Information Block,MIB),系统信息块1(System Information Block1,SIB1),以及其他系统消息other SIs(比如:编号为2~22的SIB2-SIB22)。SI还可以根据发送的方式分为最小系统消息MSI和other SIs,其中MSI主要包含MIB和SIB1。特别地,终端设备可以请求other SIs,网络设备可以通过广播或者专有RRC信令的方式发送请求的other SI。系统消息可以分为多个系统消息块,每个SI block包含哪些SIB,可以是协议规定,也可以由网络设备来具体决定。如果SI block包含哪些SIB由网络设备决定,则网络设备需要在MSI中进行广播告知终端设备。
具体而言,该第二网络节点首先确定有效区域(area ID),该有效区域是系统信息 SI对应的有效区域,该第二网络节点向该第一网络节点发送第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示至少一个系统信息中每个系统信息的有效区域,该第一网络节点接收来自于该第二网络节点的该第一指示信息后,将该至少一个系统信息和该第一指示信息广播给终端设备,终端设备接收该至少一个系统信息和该第一指示信息,该终端设备可以获知该至少一个系统信息所应用的有效区域,当该终端设备移动时,该终端设备会获取新的系统信息的有效区域,如果有效区域没有变化,则该终端设备就不用重新读取系统信息了。
可以理解,第一指示信息可以包括该至少一个系统信息中每个系统信息的有效区域,或者,第一指示信息包括系统信息的有效区域,或者,第一指示信息包括系统信息的有效区域以及位图信息,其中所述位图信息可以使用一个指示列表来替代(本申请中所描述的位图信息均可以使用指示列表来替代,下文不再赘述)。所述位图信息是一个0/1的bitmap指示(如,00001101等,其中0表示系统信息在本小区有效,1表示系统信息在area ID相同的小区内有效),所述指示列表是一个单独的指示,如SIB2:0,SIB3:1等等,其中0表示系统信息在本小区有效,1表示系统信息在area ID相同的小区内有效。

下面以该第一网络节点为图3中的gNB-DU,该第二网络节点为图3中的gNB-CU为例进行说明,gNB-DU和gNB-CU通过F1接口建立消息进行系统信息的交互。
例如,gNB-CU向gNB-DU发送该第一配置信息,gNB-DU接收该gNB-CU发送的该第一配置信息,该第一配置信息为所有的Other SIs里的SIB(除MIB和SIB1之外的其他SIB,如SIB2、SIB3、SIB4…)和所有的Other SIs里的SIB的调度信息,其中所述other SIs里的SIB的调度信息为可选项。
表6示出了一种该第一配置信息的信元信息,表6所示。
表6第一配置信息的信元信息
IE/Group Name
SIB list
>SIB type
>>SIB message(SIB container)
>>SIB schdule infomation
应理解,表6中的SIB type可以是SIB2、SIB3等,SIB message也可以称之为SIB container,具体内容类似LTE/NR中的定义,为了简洁,在此不再赘述。
还应理解,gNB-CU向gNB-DU发送Other SIs(除MIB和SIB1之外的其他SIB,如SIB2、SIB3、SIB4…)时,需要把Other SIs里的具体SIB的调度信息发送给gNB-DU,该Other SIs里的具体SIB的调度信息可以为Other SIs里的具体SIB的调度周期/传输周期、Other SIs里的具体SIB的预警区域列表和Other SIs里的具体SIB的广播次数中的至少部分。
还应理解,该SIB的预警区域列表可以为小区列表、跟踪区列表以及紧急区域列表,具体的,小区标识可以是全球小区识别码(Cell Global Identifier,CGI)、跟踪区列表内为跟踪区域标识(Tracking Area identity,TAI)等标识信息。
还应理解,Other SIs里的具体SIB的调度周期/传输周期、Other SIs里的具体SIB的预警区域列表和Other SIs里的具体SIB的广播次数主要适用于SIB10、SIB11和SIB12,用于地震预警等场景,gNB-DU收到该配置信息时,可以直接使用,也可以作为参考使用, 本申请并不限于此。
gNB-DU收到该第一配置信息后,可以确定该第二配置信息,该第二配置信息为other SIs里的SI窗口长度(SI-windowlength)、SI与SIB的映射关系以及SI的调度周期(SI-periodicity)。
应理解,SI与SIB的映射关系为对应的SI中所包括的具体SIB type(SIB-mappinginfo)。
还应理解,gNB-DU可以参考gNB-CU发送的Other SIs里的SI的调度信息,也可以将其作为参考,自己重新确定Other SIs里的SI的调度信息。
图8示出了一种SI和SIB的映射关系图,如图8所示,gNB-DU收到gNB-CU发送的SIB的调度信息后,根据SI的传输周期和SIB的调度信息,确定SI和SIB的映射关系,例如,gNB-DU确定SI1的传输周期为160ms,SIB2和SIB3的传输周期也为160ms,则gNB-DU将SIB2和SIB3放在SI1中广播给终端设备;gNB-DU确定SI2的传输周期为320ms,SIB4和SIB5的传输周期也为320ms,则gNB-DU将SIB4和SIB5放在SI2中广播给终端设备;gNB-DU确定SI3的传输周期为320ms,SIB6的传输周期也为320ms,则gNB-DU将SIB6放在SI3中广播给终端设备;gNB-DU确定SI4的传输周期为640ms,SIB6的传输周期也为640ms,则gNB-DU将SIB7放在SI4中广播给终端设备,同时,所述确定SI和SIB的映射关系要放在SIB1中广播给终端设备。
应理解,每个SI只在一个SI窗口中传输:(1)一个SI跟一个SI窗口相关联,该SI窗口内只能发这个SI且可以重复发送多次(发多少次,在哪些子帧上发送等,取决于网络设备的实现),但不能发送其它SI消息;(2)SI窗口之间是紧挨着的(如果相邻的话),既不重叠,也不会有空隙;(3)所有SI的SI窗口长度都相同;(4)不同SI的周期是相互独立的。
还应理解,如果other SIs是可以由gNB-DU编码的,那么gNB-DU决定SI配置后直接编码并广播,否则,如果other SIs由gNB-CU编码的,那么gNB-DU还需要把所决定的SI和SIB的映射关系告知gNB-CU,由gNB-CU编码后再发送给gNB-DU,由DU广播(应理解,所述编码的含义即可以理解为other SIs的各个SI是谁生成的。)
又例如,gNB-CU向gNB-DU发送该第一配置信息,gNB-DU接收该gNB-CU发送的该第一配置信息,该第一配置信息为所有的Other SIs和所有的Other SIs的调度信息、SI和SIB的映射关系。

又例如,DU在识别出该RRC消息是用于请求SI/SIB后,进行该RRC消息的准入控制,即DU具有对系统信息请求的准入控制功能,如果DU不允许该RRC消息接入,则一种方式是DU直接发送拒绝指示信息给该终端设备,该拒绝指示信息包括在MAC CE中;另一种方式是,DU不允许该RRC消息接入,DU向CU发送拒绝指示信息,然后CU通过RRC消息告知该终端设备。
可选地,该第一网络节点向该第二网络节点发送第三消息之前,该方法700还包括:

例如,DU可以不进行RRC消息的识别,对所有RRC消息都进行准入控制,如果DU不允许准入,则直接发起initial UL RRC message消息到CU,所述intial UL RRC message消息中包括RRC container,但不包括DU to CU RRC Container,CU收到所述消息后,通过所述intial UL RRC message消息中包括的RRC container中的内容(例如,message type)识别所述RRC消息的消息类型,判断是否是进行系统信息或者系统信息块请求,如果不是系统信息或者系统信息块请求的RRC消息,CU确定该RRC消息不包括DU to CU RRC Container,则CU发送拒绝指示信息通过DU发送给该终端设备。否则,如果CU通过RRC container中的内容(例如,message type)识别出所述RRC消息是系统消息请求,则进行系统消息请求响应。
又例如,DU可以进行RRC消息的识别,DU识别出该RRC消息是系统信息请求时,允许准入,则发送一条新定义的消息(例如,SI request message transfer)来传递所述RRC消息,所述新定义的消息包括CGI和RRC Container(RRC Container中包括了message type),CU收到后就可以识别该新定义的消息是用于请求SI,进一步的,CU还需要通过RRC Container中包括的系统信息请求的内容来识别终端设备所请求的SI/SIB是哪一个。

该第二网络节点根据第三消息的目的确定是否要拒绝终端设备的请求,具体的,该第二网络节点根据该第三消息包括的该第一容器中的内容识别出的消息目的是请求RRC连接(例如,RRC connection setup或者RRC connection re-establish或者RRC connection resume),则如果第三消息中不包括第二容器,在第一网络节点不能服务所述终端设备的假设下该第二网络节点拒绝终端设备,可选的,该第二网络节点通过第一网络节点向终端设备发送拒绝指示信息,其中,拒绝指示信息中可以包括拒绝指示的消息类型。
例如,CU收到DU发送的第三消息,CU通过该第三消息识别出该第三消息是系统信息请求消息,具体地,CU通过该第三消息的RRC container中的内容(如,RRC消息类型message type)识别出所述RRC消息是系统信息请求消息,则进行系统消息请求响应。
又例如,CU收到DU发送的第三消息,CU通过该第三消息识别出该第三消息时系统信息请求消息,具体地,CU通过该第三消息的RRC container中的内容(如,RRC消息类型message type)识别出所述RRC消息是第一类RRC消息,即为RRC connection setup或re-establish或resume的RRC消息,即可以理解RRC消息所对应的message type为RRC connection setup或re-establish或resume的消息类型(如识别出该RRC消息不是用于系统信息请求),而且CU识别出第三消息中不包括DU to CU RRC Container(或者,DU to CU  RRC information),则在DU不能服务所述终端设备的假设下拒绝所述终端设备,即CU拒绝该终端设备的该RRC消息,例如CU通过DU发送拒绝指示信息给终端设备,具体的,CU可以通过DL RRC message transfer消息把所述拒绝指示信息发送给DU,DU再发送给终端设备。
对于CU通过RRC container中的内容(例如,message type)识别出所述RRC消息是用于系统信息请求,或者CU通过DU发送的SI request message transfer消息识别出所述RRC消息是用于系统信息请求,则CU要通过DU给终端设备发送系统信息请求响应。具体地,CU把所述系统信息请求响应信息(ack)放在RRC connection setup消息中,所述RRC connection setup消息可以封装在DL RRC message transfer消息由CU发送给DU,然后再由DU把所述RRC connection setup消息发送给终端设备。
可选的,如果CU需要进行冲突解决(即CU准入了终端设备的RRC连接建立),还需要把冲突解决标识(CRID)发送给该终端设备,具体的,所述冲突解决标识可以携带在所述RRC connection setup消息中,或者,也可以在一条新的消息中发送,具体发送方式与系统信息请求响应的发送方式相同,此处不再赘述。
可选地,CU也可以先把系统信息请求响应或者CRID通过DU和CU的F1接口消息发送给DU(如system information delivery command消息,或者其他现有接口消息或新消息,本申请不限定),再由DU把所述冲突解决标识加在MAC头中通过MAC CE发送给该终端设备。
或者,对于系统消息请求的RRC消息,CU可以不发送上述响应信息和CRID,CU通过DU发送一个bitmap(例如,other SIs中有4个SI,SIB有22个,那么对于系统信息请求的是SI,则bitmap指示可以是0110,0代表没有广播,1代表系统信息已经广播,所述0110的位置与SI的编号一一对应,如果系统信息请求的是SIB,则bitmap指示可以是一串22位的01指示,0代表没有广播,1代表系统信息已经广播,所述22位的位置与SIB的编号一一对应)到终端设备,所述bitmap用于指示哪些系统信息或系统信息块被请求了,所述bitmap指示可以通过CU的RRC消息发送,或者,CU也可以先把bitmap指示先通过CU和DU之间的F1接口消息(如system information delivery command消息)发送给DU,消息中需要携带终端设备的标识,再由DU把所述bitmap指示增加在MAC报头中通过MAC CE发送给终端设备,具体同系统信息请求响应信息和冲突解决标识的发送方式相同,这里不再赘述。
本申请实施例的传输方法,通过该第二网络节点识别第三消息中的RRC容器,从而确定终端设备是否请求系统信息,避免了该第二网络节点直接拒绝终端设备请求系统信息。
应理解,本申请实施例中,DU和CU之间的消息,如initial UL RRC message trasfer、DL RRC message transfer、UL RRC message transfer都是用来传递终端设备的RRC消息的,所传递的RRC消息中的RRC container中均会包括message type,用于说明终端设备的RRC消息是什么消息,如RRC connection setup消息、SI请求消息等等。

场景一:UE与DU1和DU2具有连接,但DU1和DU2与UE建立的承载是不同的承载。这种场景下,当DU1发生无线链路问题之后,如果数据要转到DU2传输,那么CU需要通过DU2与UE建立相关承载。
场景二:UE与DU1和DU2具有连接,DU2属于DU1的备份链路,与UE建立的是相同的承载。或者,DU2与DU1与UE建立的承载有部分相同,部分不同,本申请对此不作任何限定。
还应理解,如果UE和DU1和DU2没有同时有连接,那么当CU-CP决定更换DU进行数传的时候,还需要与新的DU建立承载信息,具体的,如通过UE context setup/modification的相关流程进行。
S802,第一网络节点发现自己的无线链路出现问题。
具体而言,DU1的无线链路问题的确定是通过DU的实现,本申请对此不作任何限定。

应理解,所述第一通知消息可以是通过DDDS PDU来传输,即作为数据无线承载DDDS(DL DATA DELIVERY STATUS)PDU的一部分,或者也可以是其他现有的PDU的一部分,或者是新定义的PDU,或者是新定义的PDU的一部分,本申请对此不作任何限定。其中通知消息中还可以包括丢失的数据包的SN号,如Number of lost F1-U Sequence Number ranges reported,对应于DU1还没有传输的PDCP PDUs。
需要说明的是,需要说明的是由于此处radio link outage通知消息是通过F1-U接口发送的,因此消息是发送给CU-UP的,因为CU-UP和DU具有用户面的接口。
应理解,F1-U接口的消息是DDDS(DL DATA DELIVERY STATUS)PDU,具体的,所述消息中包括上行/下行radio link outage通知,或者也可以是F1-U接口的其他现有消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。需要说明的是,上行/下行radio link outage通知可以是原因值,也可以是其它指示,本申请在此不作限定。

还应理解,具体的,所述E1 AP消息可以是UE bearer setup/modification request/response消息或UE bearer modification required/confirm消息等,或者也可以是现有E1 AP其他消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。
S805,控制面节点接收到该第一通知消息后,确定是否更换该第一网络节点。
具体而言,CU-CP接收到该第一通知消息后,确定是否更换DU,即决策是否从DU1更换为DU2传输数据,或者是否通过DU2重传DU1没有传输成功的数据等,本申请在此不作限定。
应理解,CU-CP通过DU1之间与UE传输的链路可以不取消(后续此链路还可能恢复,通过resume流程),或者CU-CP通过DU1之间与UE传输的链路也可以取消(后续此链路恢复需要重建所述链路)。
还应理解,如果CU-CP决定更换的DU2尚没有为UE分配相关资源(即前文描述的场景一),那么CU-CP还需要向DU2发起建立承载的相关流程,具体的:
CU-CP向DU2发送F1 AP消息UE context setup/modification request,向DU2请求建立待进行数据传输的相关承载,DU2收到消息后响应F1 AP UE context setup/modification response到CU-CP。

S807,控制面节点向第三网络节点发送第五指示信息,所述第五指示信息用于指示终端设备更换网络节点的结果。
CU-CP确定更换DU进行上行/下行的数据传输后,向DU2发送第五指示消息,该第五指示消息用于告知UE更换DU的结果;具体的,第五指示信息可以通过F1接口消息传递。
需要说明的是,本步骤可选,本步骤与其他步骤无顺序限制。
S808,第三网络节点向终端设备发送该第五指示信息,该终端设备接收该第三网络节点发送的该第五指示信息。
具体而言,CU-CP通过F1 AP消息(例如DL RRC message transfer消息)把更换DU的结果发送给UE(如通过DU2告知UE),所述结果例如上行数据从DU2传输。
应理解,此步骤与其他步骤无顺序限制,可以在任意步骤之前或者之后进行。
还应理解,如果当radio link outage的指示是上行传输出现问题的指示,那么CU-CP可能会决策源DU1继续进行下行数据的传输,DU2进行上行数据的传输,此时,CU-CP需要把此决策告知UE,即指示UE进行上行传输的DU,从而UE知道上下行数据的走向。
还应理解,如果当radio link outage的指示是下行传输出现问题的指示,那么CU-CP可能会决策所有上下行数据都从DU2进行传输,此时,CU-CP需要把此决策告知UE,即指示UE进行上行或下行传输的DU,从而UE知道上下行数据的走向。
统一而言,所述第五指示消息是通过CU-CP通过RRC消息发送给UE,具体的,所述指示可以是上行传输的DU的标识、上行传输的小区的标识、上行传输的小区组(cellgroup)标识、上行传输的SCG的标识中的至少一种,本申请对此并不作任何限定。

例如,如果DU1发现无线链路恢复,则发送第二通知消息(例如,无线链路恢复radio link resume通知消息)到CU-UP,CU-UP接收该DU1发送的该第二通知消息。
具体而言,所述第二通知消息是通过F1-U用户面接口发送的,类似radio link outage的通知。F1-U接口的消息是DDDS(DL DATA DELIVERY STATUS)PDU,即作为数据无线承载DDDS(DL DATA DELIVERY STATUS)PDU的一部分,或者也可以是其他现有的PDU的一部分,或者是新定义的PDU,或者是新定义的PDU的一部分,本申请对此不作任何限定。具体的,所述消息中包括上行/下行radio link resume的原因值,或者也可以是F1-U接口的其他现有消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。

本申请实施例的无线通信的方法,有助于解决CP-UP架构下无线链路故障/恢复的指示问题。
上文结合图15介绍了本申请实施例的传输方法800,图15中无线链路失败指示是通过F1-U用户面接口传输,下面结合图16,详细描述根据本申请实施例的传输方法900,方法900中无线链路失败指示可以通过F1-C控制面节口传输,如果无线链路问题指示是通过F1-C控制面接口传输的过程,那么DU可以通过F1 AP消息(例如UE context setup/modification/release request/response/required/confirm消息等)发送所述指示到CU-CP,如图16所示,该方法900包括:

具体而言,可以通过F1 AP消息,如UE context setup/modification request/response/required消息等,或者是现有的其他F1 AP消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。
需要说明的是,如果CU-CP决定更换的DU2尚没有为UE分配相关资源(即前文描述的场景一),那么CU-CP还需要向DU2发起建立承载的相关流程,具体的:
CU-CP向DU2发送F1 AP消息UE context setup/modification request,向DU2请求建立待数传的相关承载,DU2收到消息后响应F1 AP UE context setup/modification response到CU-CP。

例如,CU-CP决策恢复数传DU后,发送新的PDU或者重传的PDU通过DU1传输。
可选地,CU-CP决策恢复DU1的上下行数传。
下面结合图17介绍本申请实施例的传输方法1000,该传输方法1000主要针对在CP-UP的架构下,由于UE的移动导致UP改变的场景,即UE从源UP切换到目标UP的场景,此时源UP可能缓存有部分从核心网过来的数据,因此这时所述缓存的数据需要在切换过程中从源UP发送至目标UP,即UP之间需要通过建立用户面的通道从而来进行数据转发。本申请实施例主要针对以下几种场景:
场景一:UP改变的过程中CP没有改变
CP决策进行切换UP,并决策进行数据转发(如提前向源UP询问是否有缓存数据,或者源UP周期性上报缓存数据情况),并向目标UP发送指示(显示的需要数据转发指示、或者隐式的切换状态指示),指示目标UP分配数据转发地址(数据转发地址可以是PDU session粒度的和/或DRB粒度的,可以是上行/下行数据转发地址,本申请在此不限定);
目标UP把分配数据转发地址通过CP发送给源UP;
源UP根据数据转发地址对缓存的数据进行数据转发。
场景二:UP改变的过程中CP改变
源CP决策进行切换UP,并决策进行数据转发(如提前向源UP询问是否有缓存数据,或者源UP周期性上报缓存数据情况),并通过目标CP向目标UP发送指示(显示的需要数据转发指示、或者隐式的切换状态指示),指示目标UP分配数据转发地址(数据转发地址可以是PDU session粒度的和/或DRB粒度的,可以是上行/下行数据转发地址,本发明不限定);
目标UP把分配数据转发地址通过目标CP和源CP发送给源UP。
源UP根据数据转发地址对缓存的数据进行数据转发。
图17示出了根据本申请实施例的传输方法1000的示意性流程图,如图17所示,该方法1000包括:

S1003,源用户面节点向该控制面节点发送的切换请求响应消息,控制面节点接收源用户面节点发送的切换请求响应消息。
例如,源UP向CP发送切换请求响应消息,CP接收源UP发送的切换请求响应消息。
具体而言,CP首先向源UP发起切换请求消息,该切换请求消息中携带数据状态的请求(如缓存数据状态),源UP收到后响应CP,如果UP有缓存,则可以决定进行数据转发,则携带数据转发指示给CP。
应理解,S1002-S1003可选,CP向UP发起的切换请求可以是使用现有的E1 AP消息,消息名称不限定,如bearer modification/setup/release request/response/required/confirm消息,也可以是其他现有的E1 AP消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。
需要说明的是,S1002与S1003两个步骤可以用一个步骤代替,即源用户面节点向控制面节点直接发送状态信息,所述状态信息如数据缓存信息,该控制面节点收到后认为可以触发进行数据转发。所述状态信息可以周期性或事件触发,本申请在此不限定。
S1004,控制面节点向目标用户面节点发送第六指示信息,该目标用户面节点接收该控制面节点发送的该第六指示信息。
例如,CP向目标UP发送第六指示信息,目标UP接收CP发送的该第六指示信息,该第六指示信息用于指示源UP要进行数据转发,即指示目标UP为源UP分配一个数据转发地址。
应理解,该第六指示信息可以携带在现有的E1 AP消息,如bearer modification/setup/release request/response/required/confirm消息,也可以是其他现有的E1AP消息,或者是新消息,本申请对此不作任何限定。
还应理解,该第六指示信息可以是显示的数据转发指示(如,data forwarding indication,可以是上行或者下行),或者也可以是隐式的指示(如,HO status、HO等,即告诉目标 UP所述消息是UP切换触发的,不是UE初始接入触发的),或者,也可以是携带特定PDU session或者DRB的信息隐式的来指示,或者也可以是携带特定PDU session或者DRB的数据转发指示(如,DRB ID1的data forwarding indication,PDU session 1的data forwarding indication,也即目标UP只为所述DRB或所述PDU session分配数据转发地址,源UP只转发所述DRB或所述PDU session的数据)。
S1005,目标用户面节点分配数据转发地址,并把所述数据转发地址发送给控制面节点。
例如,目标UP分配数据转发地址,并把所述数据转发地址发送给CP。
具体而言,所述数据转发地址可以是PDU session粒度的和/或DRB粒度的,可以是上行/下行数据转发地址,例如,DL/UL Forwarding GTP Tunnel Endpoint、PDU Session level DL data forwarding GTP-U Tunnel Endpoint,本申请对此不作任何限定。
S1006,控制面节点将该数据转发地址转发给源用户面节点。
