Description

一种确定调度时延的方法及装置
本申请要求于2018年2月13日提交中国专利局、申请号为201810150929.0、申请名称为“一种确定调度时延的方法及装置”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实施例中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种确定调度时延的方法及装置。
背景技术
第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)在第10版本(Release 10,R10)中提出了载波聚合(carrier aggregation,CA)技术,并将CA技术引入到增强长期演进(long term evolution-advanced,LTE-A)蜂窝通信系统中。所谓载波聚合是网络通过多个成分载波(component carrier,CC)同时向单个用户设备(user equipment,UE)调度(scheduling)并发送下行数据,或者授权(grant)UE同时在多个CC上向网络发送上行数据。与之相比,传统LTE系统中,网络只能在通过一个CC调度UE接收下行数据或者授权UE在一个CC上发送上行数据。因此,CA的引入使得UE的上下行吞吐率随着CC数的增加成倍的增加。
目前,3GPP正在进行第5代移动通信(the 5th generation,5G)新空口(new radio,NR)标准化工作,其中CA作为一个重要的技术点将在NR中进行进一步增强。其中LTE-Advanced中,一个CC的最大带宽为20MHz;而NR中,CC的最大带宽可以高达100MHz。
但是,同时激活多个CC时,UE的功耗会大大上升,因此,在激活多个CC时,如何降低UE的功耗是未来通信系统中亟需解决的技术问题。
发明内容
本申请提供一种确定调度时延的方法及装置,用以降低UE的功耗。

由于未来接入网可以采用云无线接入网(cloud radio access network,C-RAN)架构来实现,一种可能的方式是将传统基站的协议栈架构和功能分割为两部分,一部分称为集中单元(central unit,CU),另一部分称为分布单元(distributed unit,DU),而CU和DU的实际部署方式比较灵活,例如多个基站的CU部分集成在一起,组成一个规模较大的功能实体。如图2所示,其为本申请实施例提供的一种网络架构的示意图。如图2所示,该网络架构包括核心网(core network,CN)设备和接入网(以无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)为例)设备。其中RAN设备包括基带装置和射频装置,其中基带装置可以由一个节点实现,也可以由多个节点实现,射频装置可以从基带装置拉远独立实现,也可以集成基带装置中,或者部分拉远部分集成在基带装置中。例如,在LTE通信系统中,RAN设备(eNB)包括基带装置和射频装置,其中射频装置可以相对于基带装置拉远布置(例如射频拉远单元(radio remote unit,RRU)相对于基带处理单元(building base band unit,BBU)),RAN设备由一个节点实现,该节点用于实现无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)、分组数据汇聚层协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)、无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)、媒体接入控制(media access control,MAC)等协议层的功能。再如,在一种演进结构中,基带装置可以包括集中单元(centralized unit,CU)和分布单元(distributed unit,DU),多个DU可以由一个CU集中控制。如图2所示,CU和DU可以根据无线网络的协议层划分,例如分组数据汇聚层协议层及以上协议层的功能设置在CU,PDCP以下的协议层,例如无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)和媒体接入控制层等的功能设置在DU。
这种协议层的划分仅仅是一种举例,还可以在其它协议层划分,例如在RLC层划分,将RLC层及以上协议层的功能设置在CU,RLC层以下协议层的功能设置在DU;或者,在某个协议层中划分,例如将RLC层的部分功能和RLC层以上的协议层的功能设置在CU,将RLC层的剩余功能和RLC层以下的协议层的功能设置在DU。此外,也可以按其它方式划分,例如按时延划分,将处理时间需要满足时延要求的功能设置在DU,不需要满足该时延要求的功能设置在CU。
此外,射频装置可以拉远,不放在DU中,也可以集成在DU中,或者部分拉远部分集成在DU中,在此不作任何限制。
此外,请继续参考图3,相对于图2所示的架构,还可以将CU的控制面(control plane,CP)和用户面(user plane,UP)分离,分成不同实体来实现,分别为控制面 CU实体(CU-CP实体)和用户面CU实体(CU-UP实体)。
在以上网络架构中,CU产生的信令/数据可以通过DU发送给终端设备,或者终端设备产生的信令/数据可以通过DU发送给CU。DU可以不对该信令/数据进行解析而直接通过协议层封装而透传给终端设备或CU。以下实施例中如果涉及这种信令/数据在DU和终端设备之间的传输,此时,DU对信令/数据的发送或接收包括这种场景。例如,RRC或PDCP层的信令最终会处理为物理层(physical layer,PHY)的信令/数据发送给终端设备,或者,由接收到的PHY层的信令/数据转变而来。在这种架构下,该RRC或PDCP层的信令/数据,即也可以认为是由DU发送的,或者,由DU和射频发送的。
在以上实施例中CU划分为RAN中网络设备,此外,也可以将CU划分为CN中的网络设备,在此不做限制。
如图4所示,图4示出了本申请提供的一种调度时延的方法的流程示意图,包括:
S101、终端装置向通信装置发送一个或多个成分载波CC组(group)的信息。
可选的,一个或多个CC组的信息用于通信装置确定N个CC组。
示例性的,本申请实施例中的终端装置可以为如图1所示的终端设备,或者为应用于终端设备中的芯片。
具体的,本申请实施例中终端装置在执行S101之前还包括:终端装置接收通信装置配置的一个或多个CC,终端装置根据预设规则,将该一个或多个CC划分为一个或多个CC组。
具体的,本申请实施例中通信装置可以在连接态无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令中为终端装置配置一个或多个CC。
具体的,终端装置可以根据终端装置的实现,将一个或多个CC划分为一个或多个CC组。
作为一个示例,如图5所示,以终端装置为UE为例,UE具有不同的实现(例如图5中UE1、UE2以及UE3),其中,对于UE1,如果通信装置在CC1和CC2内调度时,UE1可以开启RF带宽(bandwidth)1,但是若UE1确定存在CC1到CC3的调度,则UE1同时开启RF bandwidth1或RF bandwidth2或者需要在调度时延中加入额外的时间用于启动被调度的CC对应的RF。UE2可以参考UE1,本申请在此不加赘述。但是UE2需要进行RF bandwidth调整(retune),例如,对于UE2,UE2确定调度CC1到CC4,则UE2需要将RF bandwidth从RF bandwidth1调整至RF bandwidth2,因此,对于UE2而言,需要在调度时延中加入RF bandwidth调整时间。对于UE3,UE始终使用一个大的RF bandwidth2来处理4个CC,因此在不同的CC间调度时功耗一致。如图5所示,作为一个例子,对于UE2,UE2将{CC1,CC2}确定为一个CC group(记为CC group X),{CC3,CC4}确定为另一个CC group(记为CC group Y),并将CC group信息上报给通信装置。
由于终端装置处理一个或多个CC对应的终端装置的功耗不同,因此终端装置可以根据处理每个CC对应的终端装置的功耗,将一个或多个CC划分为一个或多个CC组。也即同一个CC组中的一个或多个CC对应的终端装置的功耗满足预设条件,例如处理同一个CC组中的一个或多个CC的功耗差别相差不大,处理不同CC组中的多 个CC对应的终端装置的功耗相差较大。
具体的,终端装置确定处理一个或多个CC中任意两个或两个以上的CC对应的一个终端装置的功耗满足预设条件,则终端装置确定任意两个或两个以上的CC属于同一个CC组。其中,预设条件包括:任意两个或两个以上的CC对应的终端装置的功耗相同,或者任意两个或两个以上的CC对应的终端装置的功耗差小于或等于预设误差。
例如,对于如图5所示的UE2,如果UE2只需要处理CC group X中的CC1和CC2时,UE2的射频带宽只需要工作在带宽较窄的RF bandwidth1上,此时无论是只处理CC1或CC2,还是需要同时处理CC1和CC2,UE2的功耗差别不大。但是如果UE2除了需要处理CC1和CC2外,UE2还需要额外处理另一个CC group Y中的CC3时,此时UE2需要工作在带宽更大的RF bandwidth2上,因此,需要更大的功耗。
其中,一个或多个CC组的信息包括每个CC组的信息以及每个CC组包括的一个或多个CC的信息。
具体的,每个CC组的信息用于识别每个CC组,一个或多个CC的信息用于识别一个或多个CC,其中,每个CC组的信息可以为每个CC组的标识,一个或多个CC的信息包括一个或多个CC中每个CC的标识。
需要说明的是,不同的CC组中包括的CC对应终端装置的不同功耗,例如如果终端装置工作在第一CC组上则功耗较低,如果同时工作在第一CC组中的CC以及第二CC组中的CC,则终端装置的功耗较高。
S102、通信装置接收终端装置发送的一个或多个成分载波CC组(group)的信息。
具体的,本申请实施例中的通信装置可以为如图1所示的网络设备,或者为应用于网络设备中的芯片。
S103、通信装置根据一个或多个成分载波CC组的信息,确定N个CC组。
其中,N为正整数,N个CC组中每个CC组包括一个或多个CC。
一种可能的实现方式,本申请实施例中通信装置可以直接将终端装置反馈的一个或多个CC组的信息所反馈的一个或多个CC组,确定为N个CC组。
示例性的,终端装置反馈的一个或多个CC组的信息:包括第一CC组的信息,第二CC组的信息以及第三CC组的信息,其中,第一CC组包括CC1、CC2、CC3,第二CC组包括CC4、CC5、CC6,第三CC组包括CC7、CC8以及CC9,则通信装置可以确定N个CC组包括第一CC组、第二CC组以及第三CC组,其中第一CC组包括CC1、CC2、CC3,第二CC组包括CC4、CC5、CC6,第三CC组包括CC7、CC8以及CC9。
另一种可能的实现方式,本申请实施例中通信装置可以根据终端装置反馈的一个或多个CC组的信息,对每个CC组中的CC进行调整,以确定N个CC组。
示例性的,终端装置一个或多个CC组的信息:包括第一CC组的信息,第二CC组的信息以及第三CC组的信息,其中,第一CC组包括CC1、CC2、CC3,第二CC组包括CC4、CC5、CC6,第三CC组包括CC7、CC8以及CC9,则通信装置可以确定N个CC组包括第一CC组、第二CC组,其中,第一CC组包括CC1、CC2、CC3、CC4以及CC5,第二CC组包括CC6、CC7、CC8以及CC9。
需要说的是,当通信装置基于终端装置反馈的一个或多个CC组的信息,调整并确定N个CC组时,通信装置需要将确定后的N个CC组的信息发送给终端装置。
S104、通信装置向终端装置发送调度时延集合。
其中,调度时延集合调度时延集合用于确定控制信道调度控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延。
S105、终端装置接收通信装置发送的调度时延集合。
S106、终端装置根据调度时延集合确定控制信道调度控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延。
可选的,本申请实施例中的控制信道可以为物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH),数据信道可以为物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH)。
本申请提供一种确定调度时延的方法,通过终端装置向通信装置发送一个或多个CC组的信息,这样便于通信装置根据CC组为终端装置确定调度时延集合,并将调度时延集合发送给终端装置,从而使得终端装置可以根据调度时延集合确定控制信道调度控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延,这样终端装置可以在未达到某一个CC的调度时延时,这样终端装置可以在某个CC未被调度时,关闭处理这个CC需要的模块,例如关闭RF模块、基带模块,或者使得处理这个CC需要的模块处于低功耗状态,也即在终端装置在一个或多个CC上调度数据时,终端装置可以关闭N个CC组中一个或多个CC所在的CC组外的其他CC组对应的处理模块,从而可以实现终端装置功耗的节省。
为了降低终端装置的功耗,通信装置根据终端装置反馈的一个或多个CC组的信息为不同的CC配置不同的调度时延,这样终端装置便可以确定控制信道调度控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延,下述将分别介绍不同调度场景下,终端装置根据调度时延集合为确定控制信道调度控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延:
场景一、通信装置在任一个CC组内的一个CC上发送控制信道以及调度该控制信道对应的数据信道:
由于通信装置调度任一个CC组的任一个CC,终端装置确定该被调度的任一个CC对应的调度时延的方式均相同。下述将以N个CC组内的第一CC组,且以第一CC组内的第一CC为例介绍。其中,第一CC组为N个CC组中的任一个CC组,第一CC为第一CC组内的任一个CC,并不具有任何指示信息含义:
在通信装置在同一个CC上发送控制信道以及调度控制信道对应的数据信道,该调度时延集合包括第一调度时延的情况下,以N个CC组至少包括第一CC组为例,作为一种可能的实现方式,如图6所示,S106具体可以通过以下方式实现:
S1061、终端装置确定控制信道在第一CC上发送,被调度的控制信道对应的数据信道在第一CC上发送,终端装置确定在第一CC上发送的控制信道调度在第一CC上发送的控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延为第一调度时延,第一CC为N个CC组中任一个CC组包括的CC。
具体的,本申请实施例中的调度时延为控制信道的最后一个符号(symbol)结束后与控制信道对应的数据信道的第一个symbol之间的时间差。
示例性的,以控制信道为PDCCH,数据信道为PDSCH为例,该调度时延可以理解为:PDCCH的最后一个符号symbol的结束与PDCCH对应的PDSCH的第一个symbol的起始之间的时间差。
示例性的,如图7所示,N个CC组包括CC组1和CC组2。其中,CC组1包括CC1和CC2,CC组2包括CC3和CC4,以控制信道为PDCCH,数据信道为PDSCH为例。终端装置确定PDCCH在CC组1内的CC1上发送,且被调度的PDSCH在CC1上发送,则终端装置确定CC1上发送的PDCCH调度在CC1上发送的PDSCH的调度时延为如图7所示的k0。k0为通信装置为终端装置配置的调度时延。
场景二、通信装置在同一个CC组内跨CC调度。也即通信装置在同一个CC组内的一个CC上发送控制信道,在另一个CC上调度该控制信道对应的数据信道:
对于N个CC组而言,当通信装置在该N个CC组中任意一个CC组中的一个CC上发送控制信道,在另一个CC上调度该控制信道对应的数据信道时,终端装置确定在一个CC上发送的控制信道调度该控制信道对应的数据信道之间的调度时延的方式均相同,因此,下述将以第一CC组包括的第一CC和第二CC为例:
通信装置在第一CC上发送控制信道,以及在第二CC上调度控制信道对应的数据信道,第一CC和第二CC属于同一个CC分组,调度时延集合包括第二调度时延的情况下,作为另一种可能的实现方式,如图8所示,本申请实施例中的S106还可以通过以下方式实现:
S1062、终端装置确定控制信道在第一CC上发送,被调度的控制信道对应的数据信道在第二CC上发送,以及确定第一CC和第二CC属于同一个CC分组,终端装置确定在第一CC上发送的控制信道调度在第二CC上发送的控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延为第二调度时延,其中,第二调度时延大于第一调度时延。
具体的,本申请实施例中第二调度时延由终端设备根据第一调度时延和第一时间量得到。
示例性的,终端装置将第一调度时延和第一时间量得到的调度时延确定为第二调度时延。
具体的,第一时间量大于或等于第二CC对应的基带模块启动时间(warm up)的时间。
例如,基带模块包括均衡模块、信道估计模块、解调模块、译码模块等。
示例性的,第一调度时延为T1,第一时间量为t,则第二调度时延为T1+t。
示例性的,如图7所示,终端装置确定PDCCH在CC1上发送,PDSCH在CC2上发送,则终端装置确定第一CC上发送的PDCCH调度在第二CC上发送的PDSCH的调度时延为如图7所示的K0’。
场景三、通信装置跨CC组调度任意多个CC,即通信装置在N个CC组中的一个CC组内的一个CC上发送控制信道,在另一个CC组内的一个CC上调度该控制信道对应的数据信道。
当通信装置在不同CC组内调度任意多个CC,且调度时延集合还包括第三调度时延的情况下,作为再一种可能的实现方式,如图9所示,本申请实施例中的S106可以通过以下方式实现:
S1063、终端装置确定控制信道在第一CC上发送,被调度的控制信道对应的数据信道在第三CC上发送,且第一CC和第三CC属于不同的CC组,终端装置确定在第一CC上发送的控制信道调度在第三CC上发送的控制信道对应的数据信道的调度时延为第三调度时延,其中,第三调度时延大于第一调度时延。
其中,第三调度时延为预设时延或由高层信令配置得到。具体的,第三调度时延为终端装置根据第一调度时延加上终端装置启动或调整处理第三CC所需的处理RF模块的时间。作为一种例子,第三调度时延为终端装置根据第一调度时延加上和第三CC所需的射频(radio frequency,RF)retune的时间得到的。
示例性的,如图7所示,终端装置确定通信装置在CC1上调度PDCCH以及在CC3上调度PDSCH时,且CC1属于CC组1,CC3属于CC组2时,终端装置确定CC1上发送的PDCCH调度在CC3上发送的PDSCH的调度时延为如图7所示的K0+t0,其中,K0为第一调度时延,t0为RF retune的时间。
如图7所示,传统技术方案中无论通信装置是否调度CC,通信装置为终端装置配置的所有CC均处于激活状态,而在本申请实施例中终端装置确定在CC组1内的CC1上发送的PDCCH以及调度CC组1内的CC2上的PDSCH,或者,确定在CC组1内的CC1上发送的PDCCH以及调度CC组1内的CC1上的PDSCH时,CC1和CC2对应的终端装置的功耗之和参考图7中的P0,当终端装置确定CC组1内的CC1上发送PDCCH,以及在CC组2内的CC3上发送PDCCH对应的PDSCH时,CC1和CC3对应的终端装置的功耗和参考图7中的P1,因此,对比P1和P0可以看出,本申请实施例中仅当终端装置确定跨CC组调度时,终端装置的功耗为P1,而当通信装置在同一个CC内调度或者在同一个CC组内调度不同CC时,终端装置的功耗P0始终小于P1。
可选的,本申请实施例中终端装置处理N个CC组中任一个CC组中任意多个CC对应的终端装置的功耗低于终端装置处理N个CC组中任意两个或两个以上的CC组中任意多个CC对应的终端装置的功耗。
作为本申请的另一种可能的实施例,如图10所示,本申请提供的方法还包括:
S107、通信装置向终端装置发送第一信令。
可选的,第一信令在第一CC上发送,第一信令用于指示终端装置动态激活或动态去激活第二CC,第一CC和第二CC属于同一个CC组。
其中,本申请实施例中的动态激活指:使用物理层信令,快速地激活被激活的CC;而动态去激活则指:使用物理层信令,快速地去激活某个处于激活状态的CC。
S108、终端装置接收第一信令,终端装置根据第一信令动态激活或动态去激活第二CC。
作为一种例子,在使用第一信令快速激活第二CC后,第一CC上的PDCCH调度第二CC上的PDSCH的第二调度时延可以为由通信装置配置的第一调度时延,也即K0。
作为本申请的再一种可能的实施例,如图11所示,本申请提供的方法还包括:
S109、通信装置向终端装置发送第二信令。
其中,第二信令包括媒体接入控制(medium access control,MAC)控制元素(control element,CE),第二信令用于激活或去激活N个CC组中任意两个或两个以上的不同 CC组内的CC。本申请实施例中通信装置通过配置终端装置以MAC CE激活或去激活N个CC组中任意两个或两个以上的不同CC组内的CC,由于CC的去激活或激活是以CC组为单位进行MAC CE激活去激活,这样可以缩短终端装置激活或去激活CC的时间。
S110、终端装置接收第二信令,终端设备根据第二信令以MAC CE方式激活或去激活N个CC组中任意两个或两个以上的不同CC组内的CC。
作为一个示例,在终端装置根据第二信令激活第二CC组后,第一CC组中的第一CC上的PDCCH调度第二CC组中的第三CC上的PDSCH的第三调度时延可以为由通信装置配置的第一调度时延,例如,K0,而不需要终端装置启动或调整处理第三CC所需的处理RF模块的时间。
示例性的,如图12所示,当通信装置在CC组1内的CC1发送第一消息,例如为激活PDCCH,激活CC组1中的CC2。此外,当终端装置在CC组1内的CC1或CC2上收到第二消息时,终端装置激活CC3和CC4。
