Description

信息发送的方法和装置 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种信息发送的方法和装置。
背景技术
车联网(Vehicle-To-Everything)是指车辆与外界的信息交互,包括车到车(Vehicle-To-Vehicle,V2V)、车到基础设施(Vehicle-To-Infrastructure,V2I)、车到行人(Vehicle-To-Person,V2P)等方式,这是未来智能汽车、自动驾驶以及智能交通运输系统的基础和关键技术。
与传统的基于蜂窝网通信的方式不同,车联网中各终端设备之间除可以借助基站进行通信外,还可以通过边链路(SideLink,SL)直接通信,即通信双方的数据不需要经过基站转发。
边链路通信包含两种通信模式:第一种通信模式是基于基站调度的边链路通信,终端设备根据基站的调度信息在被调度的无线资源上发送边链路通信的控制信息和数据,称为模式三(mode3)工作模式;第二种通信模式是终端设备监听边链路通信资源池,然后从监听到的可用无线资源中自行选择边链路通信所用的无线资源,并在所选择的无线资源上发送控制信息和数据,称为模式四(mode4)工作模式。边链路通信资源池包括多个无线资源,终端设备每次占用其中的一个或多个频域上连续的无线资源用于通过边链路发送控制信息和数据。
工作在Mode4的终端设备基于历史监听(或侦听,Sensing)信息,选择发送一定大小的发送时间段窗口,并在发送时间段窗口内选择一个时间段发送信息(如控制信息和/或数据)。两个或者多个终端设备可能会选择相同时间段上的相同频域资源。此时,因为冲突,信息可能会发送失败。针对时延要求紧急的业务,发送时间段窗口更小,冲突概率会更大。
发明内容
本发明实施例描述了一种信息发送的方法和装置,用以解决直接使用频域资源发送信息的碰撞概率大,时延大的问题。
第一方面,本发明实施例提供一种信息发送的方法,该方法包括第一终端设备确定发送时间段,其中,发送时间段包括第一时间段,且所述第一时间段的长度小于所述发送时间段的长度,第一时间段包括N个子时间段,N为正整数,且N>1;第一终端设备选择目标子时间段,其中,目标子时间段为N个子时间段中的一个;第一终端设备在所述目标子时间段发送指示信息,所述指示信息用于指示占用目标频域资源,其中目标频域资源位于发送时间段。通过本实施例提供的方案,第一终端设备可以在第一时间段发送目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,以降低与其它终端设备在相同频域资源上碰撞的概率,从而降低由于碰撞带来的时延。

在一种可能的设计中,如果第一终端设备在与目标频域资源对应的第一频域资源上监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则第一终端设备不在所述第二时间段的目标频域资源上发送信息;和/或,如果第一终端设备在与目标频域资源对应的第一频域资源上没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则第一终端设备在第二时间段的目标频域资源上发送信息。采用先监听指示信息,再根据是否监听到指示信息来确定是否发送指示信息的方式,能有效降低不同终端设备之间的碰撞概率。

在一种可能的设计中,第一终端设备在发送时间段之前,还包括:第一终端设备确定发送时间段窗口,其中,发送时间段窗口包括至少一个时间段,发送时间段属于发送时间段窗口中的一个时间段;第一终端设备从时间段窗口中选择一个时间段,作为所述发送时间段。通过确定该时间段,可以保证信息的时延达到业务的服务质量要求。
在一种可能的设计中,第一终端设备根据待发送信息的服务质量要求,确定所述时间段窗口,其中,所述服务质量要求包括时延要求。结合服务质量要求,选择合适的时间窗口,以保证信息的时延。

在Mode4工作模式下,终端设备监听边链路通信资源池,然后从监听到的至少一个可用无线资源中自行选择边链路通信所用的一个或多个无线资源,并在所选择的资源上发送控制信息和数据。其中边链路通信资源池包括多个无线资源,终端设备每次通过边链路发送控制信息和数据占用其中的一个或多个无线资源,且该一个或多个无线资源在频域上连续。如图1所示的终端设备113与114进行边链路通信时,采用Mode4工作模式。边链路通信资源池包括多个无线资源,终端设备使用其中的一个或多个频域上连续的无线资源发送控制信息和数据。

例如,如图2所示,处理器204可包括编码器2041,调制器2042,解码器2043,解调器2044。编码器2041用于对待发送信号进行编码。例如,编码器2041可用于接收要在上行链路上(或边链路上)发送的业务数据和/或信令消息,并对业务数据和信令消息进行处理(例如,格式化、编码、或交织等)。调制器2042用于对编码器2041的输出信号进行调制。例如,调制器可对编码器的输出信号(数据和/或信令)进行符号映射和/或调制等处理,并提供输出采样。解调器2044用于对输入信号进行解调处理。例如,解调器2044处理输入采样并提供符号估计。解码器2043用于对解调后的输入信号进行解码。例如,解码器2043对解调后的输入信号解交织、和/或解码等处理,并输出解码后的信号(数据和/或信令)。
处理器204接收可表示语音、数据或控制信息的数字化数据,并对这些数字化数据处理后以供传输。处理器204可以支持多种通信系统的多种无线通信协议中的一种或多种,例如长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)通信系统,新空口(New Radio,NR),通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS),高速分组接入(High Speed Packet Access,HSPA)等等。可选的,处理器204中也可以包括一个或多个存储器。
所述终端设备还可以包括应用处理器(application processor)302,用于生成上述的可表示语音、数据或控制信息的数字化数据。
处理器204和应用处理器202可以是集成在一个处理器芯片中。
存储器203用于存储用于支持所述终端设备通信的程序代码(有时也称为程序,指令,软件等)和/或数据。
需要说明的是,该存储器203可以包括一个或多个存储单元,例如,可以是处理器204或应用处理器202内部的存储单元,或者可以是与处理器204或应用处理器202独立的外部存储单元,或者还可以是包括处理器204或应用处理器202内部的存储单元以及与处理器204或应用处理器202独立的外部存储单元的部件。
处理器204可以是不同类型的处理器。例如可以实现在中央处理器(Central Processing Unit,CPU),通用处理器,数字信号处理器(Digital Signal Processor,DSP),专用集成电路(Application-Specific Integrated Circuit,ASIC),现场可编程门阵列(Field Programmable Gate Array,FPGA)或者其他可 编程逻辑器件、晶体管逻辑器件、硬件部件、其他集成电路、或者其任意组合。处理器204可以实现或执行结合本发明实施例公开内容所描述的各种示例性的逻辑方框,模块和电路。所述处理器也可以是实现计算功能器件的组合,例如包含一个或多个微处理器组合,DSP和微处理器的组合或者片上系统(system-on-a-chip,SOC)等等。
本领域技术人员能够理解,结合本申请所公开的诸方面描述的各种解说性逻辑块、模块、电路和算法可被实现为电子硬件、存储在存储器中或另一计算机可读介质中并由处理器或其它处理设备执行的指令、或这两者的组合。作为示例,本文中描述的设备可用在任何电路、硬件组件、IC、或IC芯片中。本申请所公开的存储器可以是任何类型和大小的存储器,且可被配置成存储所需的任何类型的信息。为清楚地解说这种可互换性,以上已经以其功能性的形式一般地描述了各种解说性组件、框、模块、电路和步骤。此类功能性如何被实现取决于具体应用、设计选择和/或加诸于整体系统上的设计约束。本领域技术人员可针对每种特定应用以不同方式来实现所描述的功能性,但此类实现决策不应被解读为致使脱离本发明各实施例的范围。
工作在Mode4的终端设备基于历史监听(Sensing)信息或监听结果,选择发送时间段窗口,并在发送时间段窗口内选择一个时间段发送控制信息和/或数据。为了方便描述,在本发明各实施例中,将控制信息和/或数据统称为信息。例如,以图3为例,终端设备监听时间段n-1000至时间段n-1,并根据监听结果选择发送时间段窗口为n+T1至n+T2,再从发送时间段窗口中选择n+T1+2作为发送时间段n+Tselect发送信息。由于发送时间段窗口的上沿要保证业务的时延要求,因此,发送时间段窗口不能太大。因此两个或者多个终端设备可能会在发送时间段窗口内选择相同的发送时间段上的相同的频域资源。此时,因为冲突发送信息可能会失败。针对时延要求紧急的业务,发送时间段窗口更小,冲突概率会更大。
为了解决上述问题,本发明实施例提供了一种信息发送的方法。该方法中,发送时间段至少包括第一时间段,第一时间段的长度小于发送时间段的长度。第一时间段包含多个子时间段。当第一终端设备有数据要发送时,第一终端设备可以根据所述历史侦听信息(或者监听结果),选择发送时间段窗口。然后第一终端设备在发送时间段窗口中选择一个发送时间段。第一终端设备从选择的发送时间段的第一时间段中选择一个目标子时间段。第一终端设备可以在选择的第一时间段中监听目标子时间段之前的至少一个子时间段。具体的,第一终端设备在所监听的每个子时间段上,可以监听其它终端设备发送的频域资源被占用的指示信息。如果没有监听到指示信息或者不需要监听指示信息,则第一终端设备在目标子时间段发送频域资源被占用的指示信息,该指示信息用于指示目标时间段中的目标频域资源被占用。第一终端设备发送频域资源被占用的指示信息后,在第二时间段,可以使用目标频域资源发送信息。通过本发明实施例提供的方法,通过将发送时间段划分成两部分,并将第一时间段再划分成多个子时间段,多个终端设备之间可以有机会选择不同的子时间段发送频域资源占用指示信息。与终端设备直接使用所选择的发送时间段中频域资源发送信息相比,本发明实施例所提供的方法能有效减少终端设备之间的碰撞概率,从而降低时延。
下面分别对时间段在时域上的结构和在频域上包括的频域资源的结构进行描述。
(1)时间段在时域上的结构
图4给出了本发明各实施例的发送时间段窗口及发送时间段结构示意图。
需要指出的是,本发明各实施例中,时间结构(时间轴)由多个在时间上连续的时间段构成。一个时间段具体可以是如图4中的一个发送时间段。
如图4所示,一个发送时间段窗口包括一个或多个发送时间段,发送时间段窗口内的一个方框表示一个发送时间段。任何一个时间段均可以作为发送时间段。一个发送时间段可以包括一个或多个时隙(slot)的长度,或者包括一个或多个迷你时隙(Mini-slot)的长度,或者包括一个或多个子帧的长度,或者包括一个或多个传输时间间隔(Transmission Time Interval,TTI)的长度,或者一个或多个正交频分复 用(orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing,OFDM)符号,本发明各实施例不作限制。比如,在LTE系统中,一个发送时间段可以是一个子帧(Subframe)。一个子帧的长度是1毫秒(Millisecond,ms)。一个子帧包括2个时隙。一个子帧包括14个OFDM符号(使用普通长度的循环前缀)或者12个OFDM符号(使用扩展长度的循环前缀)。一个TTI的长度等于一个子帧的长度,或者包括一个时隙的长度,或者更短。再比如,在5G系统中,一个发送时间段可以包括一个迷你时隙。一个迷你时隙包括1个或多个OFDM符号。需要说明的是,本发明各实施例中的发送时间段不仅限于LTE系统或5G系统中,也可以应用在其它系统中,本发明各实施例不作限制。
为描述方便,本发明各实施例中以时隙为例,来表示时间段。相应的,子时间段也可以称为短时隙,或者快速监听时隙。
发送时间段包括第一时间段和第二时间段。第二时间段位于第一时间段后面。即,依时间顺序,分别是第一时间段和第二时间段。终端设备可以利用第一时间段监听和/或发送频域资源占用指示信息。终端设备可以利用第二时间段发送信息。
下面分别对第一时间段和第二时间段进行描述。
(a)第一时间段。第一时间段包括N个子时间段,N为正整数,且N>1。比如N=4。如图4所示,第一时间段内的一个用横线填充的方框表示一个子时间段。第一时间段用于终端设备监听和/或发送频域资源占用指示信息。即,第一时间段用于多个终端设备之间协调当前发送时间段的频域资源。一个子时间段可以包括一个或多个OFDM符号。在一种实现方式中,第一时间段包括X个OFDM符号,X为正整数。为描述方便,本发明各实施例中将第一时间段包括的OFDM符号称为第一OFDM符号。即,第一时间段包括X个第一OFDM符号。在另一种实现方式中,一个子时间段长度可以为9微秒(μs)。第一时间段的长度在本发明不作限制。第一时间段在时域上包括第一部分和第二部分。第一部分包括N1个子时间段,用于监听和/或发送频域资源占用指示信息,其中N1为正整数,且N1<N。第二部分包括N2个子时间段,用于自动增益控制(Automatic Gain Control,AGC),其中,N2为正整数,且N1+N2≤N。即,N个子时间段中,N1个子时间段用于终端设备监听和/或发送频域资源占用指示信息,N2个子时间段用于AGC。在一种实现方式中,第二部分位于第一时间段中的最后N2个子时间段,或者位于第一部分之后。在另一种实现方式中,第二部分可以位于第一时间段最前面N2个子时间段,或者位于第一部分之前。终端设备通过自动增益控制AGC,来调整接收的信号强度,进而确保终端设备正确解码所需的信噪比(Signal-Noise Ratio,SNR)。比如,当接收信号强度较弱的时候,终端设备通过AGC放大信号强度,将SNR提升到合理的范围。当接收信号强度较强的时候,终端设备通过AGC减弱接收信号强度,避免出现信号强度超过合理范围导致的接收性能恶化。由于V2X的通信可能存在一对多,多对一和多对多通信的情况,而且不同终端设备之间的距离可能不同,容易导致终端设备接收的信号强度变化很大。因此,终端设备通过AGC来调整接收的信号强度以提升接收性能。
(b)第二时间段。第二时间段包括一个或多个OFDM符号。在一种实现方式中,第二时间段包括Y个OFDM符号,Y为正整数。为描述方便,本发明各实施例中称第二时间段包括的OFDM符号为第二OFDM符号。即,第二时间段包括Y个第二OFDM符号。
在本发明各实施例中,第一OFDM符号与第二OFDM符号的子载波间隔可以相同,也可以不同。在一种实现方式中,第一OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔等于第二OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔。在另一种实现方式中,第一OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔大于第二OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔。在另一种实现方式中,第一OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔是第二OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔的整数倍。比如,第一OFDM符号和第二OFDM符号均可以采用15KHz的子载波间隔。或者第一OFDM符号采用30KHz,60KHz,或120KHz等子载波间隔,第二OFDM符号采用15KHz子载波间隔。本发明各实施例不对第一OFDM符号和第二OFDM符号采用的 具体子载波间隔进行限制。
(2)时间段在频域上包括的频域资源的结构
一个时间段在频域上包括频域资源集合,其中频域资源集合包括一个或多个频域资源。如果频域资源集合包括多个频域资源,则多个频域资源之间是频分复用的。一个频域资源在频域上占用一定的宽度。比如,一个频域资源可以占用180KHz,或者,一个频域资源可以占用1个物理资源块(Physical Resource Block,PRB),或者,一个频域资源可以占用6个子载波。一个频域资源包括的资源(如PRB,或子载波)在频域上可以是连续的,也可以是离散的,本发明实施例不作限制。频域资源具体可以为单一时隙资源(single-slot resource),或者无线资源,或者时频资源。频域资源集合具体可以为单一时隙资源集合,或者无线资源集合,或者时频资源集合。频域资源可以用于物理边链路控制信道(Physical Sidelink Control Channel,PSCCH)和/或物理边链路共享信道(Physical Sidelink Shared Channel,PSSCH)。当频域资源为单一时隙资源时,一个时间段包括的单一时隙资源集合中包括一个或多个单一时隙资源。单一时隙资源可用于PSCCH和/或PSSCH。即,单一时隙资源可用于传输边链路控制信令和/或数据。
为描述方便,频域资源位于第一时间段中的每个子时间段的部分称为第一频域资源,频域资源位于第二时间段中的部分称为第二频域资源。即,第一频域资源属于频域资源,且第一频域资源位于频域资源的第一时间段部分;第二频域资源属于频域资源,且第二频域资源位于频域资源的第二时间段部分。每个第一频域资源与一个第二频域资源一一对应。一种实现方式是,第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上是同一块资源(同频),只是占用一个时间段内的不同的时间。另一种实现方式是,第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上不同,但是一一对应。比如,第一频域资源与第二频域资源的对应关系包括,第一频域资源1对应第二频域资源2,第一频域资源2对应第二频域资源3,第一频域资源3对应第二频域资源1。第一频域资源与第二频域资源的对应关系可以通过网络设备或者终端设备的高层进行配置,或者在协议中固定。
第一频域资源用于发送指示信息,指示被占用的频域资源,或者指示被占用的第二频域资源。第二频域资源用于发送信息。
时间段结构相关的参数包括如下至少一项:第一时间段和/或第二时间段的长度,N的取值,子时间段的长度,第一时间段采用的第一OFDM符号的子载波间隔,第一时间段包含的第一OFDM符号个数,第一时间段中的子时间段包括的第一OFDM符号个数,N1和/或N2的取值,第二时间段包含的第二OFDM符号的个数,第二OFDM符号采用的子载波间隔,一个时间段(即第一时间段和第二时间段)包含的频域资源的数量,每个频域资源在频域上的宽度。时间段结构相关的参数中的一项或多项可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当时间段结构相关的参数由网络设备通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。
终端设备监听第一时间段内的一个或多个子时间段,并其中一个子时间段的一个第一频域资源上发送指示信息。该指示信息用于指示占用与该第一频域资源对应的第二频域资源。通过上述时间段结构和方法,终端设备可以实现与其它终端设备协调当前时间段的频域资源,以降低碰撞概率。
一种示例性的时间段结构描述如下:
假设时间段为时隙,OFDM符号的子载波间隔(sub-carrier space,SCS)为15KHz,采用正常循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix,CP)。一个时隙包括14个OFDM符号。在一种实现方式中,第一时间段包括时隙中的第一个OFDM符号。第一时间段用于监听和/或发送指示信息,即用于指示占用了哪个频域资源。或者,第一个符号用于快速监听(Fast Sensing)。第一个OFDM符号还可以用于AGC。
第一个OFDM符号包括N个短监听时隙(Short-Sensing Slot,sSS),N为正整数。即,第一个OFDM 符号包括N个子时间段。具体的,第一个OFDM符号包括{sSS 0,sSS 1,…,sSS N-1}。其中
Figure PCTCN2019076014-appb-000001
L OFDM_symbol为第一个OFDM的符号长度,L sSS为一个sSS的长度。即N为L OFDM_symbol与L sSS相除再向下取整。sSSN-1的长度≥L sSS,即最后一个sSS的长度有可能大于L sSS。假设N=5,前N1=4个sSS用于快速监听。后N2=1个sSS用于AGC,即{sSS 0,sSS 1,…,sSS 3}用于快速侦听,sSS 5用于AGC。在另一种实现方式中,第一时间段可以包括时隙中的前k个OFDM符号,k为正整数,且k≤14。比如,第一时间段包括时隙中的前2(即k=2)个OFDM符号,或者,包括时隙中的前3(即k=3)个OFDM符号。第一时间段包括N个短监听时隙。相应的,一个sSS的长度在上面描述基础上相应变化,在此不作赘述。
下面结合图4示出的时间段结构,对本发明实施例提供的一种信息发送的方法进行描述。
本发明各实施例中的终端设备,可以是图1中终端设备111~114中的任意一个。为描述方便,以下以终端设备是终端设备111为例,进行说明。
图5给出了一个本发明实施例提供的一种信息发送的方法的流程示意图。该方法包括如下步骤:
S501,终端设备确定发送时间段。
在确定发送时间段之前,当有边链路数据在时间段n达到并需要发送给其它终端设备时,终端设备根据历史监听信息(或监听结果)和高层的要求,确定一个发送时间段窗口[n+T1,n+T2],其中T1,T2为整数,且T1≥0,T2≥0。所述高层可以是MAC层,无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,RLC)层,分组数据汇聚(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层,业务数据适配(Service Data Adaptation Protocol,SADP)层,RRC层或更高层。
终端设备在发送时间段窗口之前的L个时间段中的至少一个时间段进行监听,或者在时间段n之前的L个时间段中的至少一个时间段进行监听。终端设备在L个时间段中的至少一个时间段,监听至少一个频域资源是否被其它终端设备占用,或者监听至少一个频域资源空闲还是忙,或者监听至少一个频域资源是否可用,或者监听至少一个频域资源是否为可用频域资源。通常,终端设备通过接收频域资源上的能量的方式判断频域资源是否可用,比如,终端设备监听到某个频域资源上的接收信号的能量或者接收信号强度指示(Received Signal Strength Indication,RSSI),大于或等于某个域值,则终端设备认为该频域资源不可用,或者认为该频域资源忙,或者认为该频域资源被其它终端设备使用。反之,如果接收信号的能量小于某个域值,则终端设备认为该频域资源可用,或者认为该频域资源空闲,即该频域资源为可用频域资源,由一个或多个可用频域资源组成的集合即为可用频域资源集合。
终端设备根据历史监听信息,确定发送时间段窗口。终端设备从发送时间段窗口中,选择一个时间段n+Tselect作为发送时间段。T1≤n+Tselect≤T2,Tselect为自然数。终端设备可以在发送时间段窗口中随机选择一个时间段作为发送时间段。终端设备还可以根据一定规则,在发送时间段窗口中选择一个时间段作为发送时间段。所述规则可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当所述规则由网络设备通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。在本发明实施例不作限制。
一种实现方式中,终端设备的处理器201可用于确定发送时间段。
S502,终端设备选择目标频域资源。
终端设备可以根据历史监听信息,确定在发送时间段n+Tselect上的可用频域资源集合。可用频域资源集合包括J个可用频域资源,J为自然数。比如,可用频域资源集合包括J个可用单一时隙资源。J个可用单一时隙资源分别表示为R 0,n+Tselect,R 1,n+Tselect,…,R J-1,n+Tselect。可以理解的,一个时间段中可用频域资源集合中包括的频域资源的个数小于或等于该时间段中频域资源集合中包括的频域资源的个数。可 以理解的,终端设备确定的发送时间段要至少包含一个可用频域资源。即,终端设备确定的发送时间段中的可用频域资源集合不为空。
目标频域资源属于可用频域资源集合。需要说明的是,由于终端设备使用可用频域资源集合中的频域资源发送信息,因此,本发明各实施例中提到的可用频域资源集合可以是第二时间段中的可用的第二频域资源的集合。相应的,终端设备确定目标频域资源可以是终端设备确定第二时间段中的目标第二频域资源。可用频域资源集合还可以是第一时间段和第二时间段中的可用的第二频域资源的集合,或者是发送时间段的频域资源的集合。相应的,终端设备确定目标频域资源还可以是终端设备确定第一时间段和第二时间段中的目标频域资源,或者是发送时间段的目标频域资源。如果发送时间段中的可用频域资源集合只包括一个频域资源,则终端设备确定该频域资源为目标频域资源。如果发送时间段的可用频域资源集合包括两个或多个频域资源,则终端设备从可用频域资源集合中选择一个频域资源作为目标频域资源。终端设备可以在可用频域资源集合中随机选择一个可用频域资源作为目标频域资源。终端设备还可以根据一定规则,在可用频域资源集合中选择一个可用频域资源作为目标频域资源。所述规则可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当所述规则由网络设备通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。在本发明实施例不作限制。
一种实现方式中,终端设备处理器204可以用于确定目标频域资源。
S503,终端设备确定目标子时间段。
终端设备从第一时间段包括的子时间段中,确定目标子时间段。具体的,终端设备从第一时间段的第一部分包括的子时间段中,确定目标子时间段。为方便描述,目标子时间段用sSS Target来表示。
在一种实现方式中,终端设备可以在第一时间段的第一部分包括的子时间段中随机选择一个子时间段作为目标子时间段。比如,假设第一时间段包括4个子时间段,分别是子时间段0,子时间段1,子时间段2和子时间段3。终端设备可以选择子时间段1作为目标子时间段。
在第二种实现方式中,终端设备还可以根据一定规则,在第一时间段的第一部分包括的子时间段中确定一个子时间段作为目标子时间段。所述规则可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当所述规则由网络设备通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。在本发明实施例不作限制。
基于第二种实现方式,终端设备可以在预配置的阈值内随机选择一个数i,i为自然数,且i≤预配置的阈值。终端设备将第一时间段的第一部分中的第i子时间段作为目标子时间段。不同的终端设备可以配置不同的阈值,以体现不同的终端设备的业务的时延要求不同或业务的优先级不同。
基于第二种实现方式,终端设备可以启动一个计数器(或定时器)。该计数器初始值为0。计数器从第一时间段的第一部分第一个子时间段开始计数。每经过一个子时间段,且终端设备在该子时间段没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则计数器加1。当计数器达C或C-1,则终端设备确定该子时间段为目标子时间段。到随机选择的数值C或预配置的阈值C,或者达到随机选择的数值C-1或预配置的阈值C-1,C为终端设备从0到N1随机选择的,或者C是预配置的。C为自然数且0≤C≤N1。比如,假设C=2,且假设计数器达到2时,确定对应的子时间段为目标子时间段。第一个子时间段计数器等于0。如果终端设备在第一个子时间段没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则将计数器加1。第二个子时间段计数器等于1。如果终端设备在第二个子时间段没有监听到其它终端设 备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则将计数器加1;第三个子时间段计数器等于2。终端设备确定第三个子时间段即为目标子时间段。如果监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,终端设备可以停止该计数器。如果监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,终端设备不在本时间段发送信息。比如,假设C=2,第一个子时间段监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则终端设备确定目标频域资源被其它终端设备占用,则终端设备不再使用该时间段发送信息。
基于第二种实现方式,终端设备可以启动一个计数器(或定时器)。该计数器初始值为C。C为终端设备从0到N1随机选择的,或者C是预配置的。C为自然数且0≤C≤N1。计数器从第一时间段的第一部分第一个子时间段开始计数。每经过一个子时间段,且该时间段没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则计数器减1。当计数器递减至0或1或-1时,终端设备确定该子时间段为目标子时间段。比如,假设C=2,第一个子时间段计数器等于2。如果终端设备在第一个子时间段没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则将计数器减1。第二个子时间段计数器等于1。如果第二个子时间段没有监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则将计数器减1。第三个子时间段计数器等于0。终端设备确定第三个子时间段即为目标子时间段。如果监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,终端设备可以停止该计数器。如果监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,终端设备不在本时间段发送信息。比如,假设C=2,第一个子时间段监听到其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,则终端设备确定目标频域资源被其它终端设备占用,则终端设备不再使用该时间段发送信息。
当C是预配置的时,所述C可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当C由网络设备通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。在本发明实施例不作限制。
可以理解的,S502和S503顺序可以调换,均可以实现本发明实施例的目的。即终端设备也可以先确定目标子时间段,然后再确定目标频域资源。
一种实现方式中,终端设备的处理器204可用于确定目标子时间段。
S504,终端设备监听其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息。
指示信息指示目标频域资源被其它终端设备占用。该指示信息为在与目标频域资源对应频域资源上发送的任何信息(比如全0),该信息可以不被解码,终端设备仅从在该频域资源上检测信号能量(或RSSI)是否大于或等于某个阈值,即可以判断该频域资源对应的目标频域资源是否被其它终端设备占用。当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上是同一块资源(同频)时,终端设备可以监听目标频域资源位于第一时间段的子时间段的部分。比如,终端设备根据在目标频域资源上接收的信号能量(或RSSI)是否大于或等于阈值Thfast_sesning,来确定是否接收到目标频域资源被占用的指示信息。当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上一一对应时,终端设备可以监听与目标频域资源对应的第一频域资源。比如,假设目标资源是第二频域资源3,与之对应的是第一频域资源1,则终端设备根据在第一频域资源1上接收的信号能量(或RSSI)是否大于或等于阈值Thfast_sesning,来确定是否接收到第二频域资源3被占用的指示信息。阈值Thfast_sesning可以是协议固定的,或者由终端设备的高层配置,或者由网络设备通过物理层控制信令,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层控制信令,或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层信令配置。当通过RRC层信令配置时,RRC层信令可以是专用RRC消息,也可以是系统广播消息。所述高层可以是MAC层,RRC层或更高层。在本发明实施例不作限制。
如果目标子时间段不是第一时间段的第一部分的第一个子时间段,则终端设备在所述目标子时间段之 前的至少一个子时间段上,监听其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息。
如果目标子时间段是第一时间段的第一部分的第一个子时间段,则终端设备不需要监听其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息。此时,终端设备执行S505,即直接在在目标频域资源位于目标子时间段的部分发送目标频域资源占用指示信息。
终端设备在从第一个子时间段开始监听,后面每个子时间段都要监听,直到监听到目标子时间段的前一个时间段,或者监听到目标频域资源被占用的指示信息为止。
当终端设备通过步骤S503的第二种实现方式确定目标子时间段时,终端设备可以在计数器满足条件之前的子时间段上监听指示信息。比如,假设计数器采用加法计数,则在计数器小于C时,终端设备在子时间段上监听指示信息。或者,假设计数器采用减法计数,则在计数器大于0时,终端设备在子时间段上监听指示信息。
如果终端确定在目标子时间段之前的一个子时间段上接收到目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,结束本时间段的操作。比如,终端设备不发送目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,和/或终端设备停止监听后续的子时间段,和/或所述终端设备不在所述第二时间段的所述目标频域资源上发送信息。比如,假设当前子时间段为sSS i,i=0,1,…sSS Target-1。当终端设备在目标频资源上接收的信号强度指示(RSSI),大于或等于阈值Thfast_sesning,则结束本时间段的操作。
如果终端设备在目标子时间段之前的一个子时间段上没有监听到其它终端设备发送的指示信息,且下一个子时间段不是目标子时间段,则终端设备继续在下一个子时间段监听指示信息。如果下一个子时间段是目标子时间段,则终端设备执行S505。
一种实现方式中,终端设备的收发器201可用于监听指示信息。或者,终端设备的处理器204控制收发器201监听指示信息。
S505,终端设备在目标子时间段发送目标频域资源被占用的指示信息。
当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上是同一块资源(同频)时,终端设备在目标频域资源位于目标子时间段的部分发送指示信息。比如,假设目标频域资源是第二频域资源3,则终端设备在目标子时间段使用第一频域资源3发送指示信息。当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上一一对应时,终端设备在目标子时间段使用目标频域资源对应的第一频域资源发送指示信息。比如,假设目标频域资源是第二频域资源3,与之对应的第一频域资源是第一频域资源1,则终端设备在目标子时间段使用第一频域资源1发送指示信息,指示第二频域资源3被占用。
所述发送的指示信息与步骤S503中监听的指示信息相同。不再赘述。
一种实现方式中,终端设备的收发器201可用于发送指示信息。或者,终端设备处理器204控制收发器201发送指示信息。
S506,终端设备在第二时间段的目标频域资源上发送信息。
终端设备在第二时间段的目标频域资源上发送的信息可以是控制信令,也可以是数据,本发明实施例不作限制。
终端设备使用目标频域资源的第二频域资源发送信息。
执行完本步骤,本时间段的操作结束。
一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备的收发器201可用于发送信息。或者,终端设备的处理器204控制收发器201发送信息。
终端设备通过执行本发明实施例所述方法,可以提前发送目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,以避免其它终端设备与自己发生碰撞。在发送目标频域资源被占用的指示信息之前,监听其它终端设备发送的目标频域资源被占用的指示信息,从而避免自己与其它终端设备发生碰撞,减少碰撞概率,降低时延。
图6给出了另一个发明实施例提供的信息发送的方法的流程示意图。该方法包括如下步骤:
S601与S501相同,在此不作赘述。
S602与S503相同,在此不作赘述。
S603,终端设备监听频域资源被占用的指示信息。
本步骤S603与S504类似。
本步骤与S504的区别是,本步骤中,终端设备事先不确定目标资源,而是监听可用频域资源集合中的多个可用频域资源是否被其它终端设备占用。因此,终端设备可以监听多个频域资源被占用的指示信息。因为多个其它终端设备可以选择同一个目标子时间段,但选择了不同的目标频域资源。所以终端设备可以同时接收到多个指示信息。多个指示信息指示多个频域资源被占用。一个指示信息指示一个频域资源被占用。本步骤中监听的指示信息中指示的被占用的频域资源可以是第二频域资源。当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上是同一块资源(同频)时,终端设备在第一时间段子时间段的第一频域资源i上监听第二频域资源i被占用的指示信息,i为自然数。当第一频域资源与第二频域资源在频域上一一对应时,终端设备在第一时间段子时间段的第一频域资源i上监听第二频域资源j被占用的指示信息。第一频域资源i与第二频域资源j对应,i,j为自然数。第一频域资源i与第二频域资源j的对应关系请参考步骤S501。
为了描述方便,本发明实施例中引入候选频域资源集合。候选频域资源集是可用频域资源集合的子集。候选频域资源集合包括的频域资源可以是位于第二时间段的第二频域资源。在监听第一时间段的第一部分的第一个子时间段时,候选频域资源集合与可用频域资源集合相同。当终端设备在一个子时间段上接收到一个或多个指示信息后,将该一个或多个指示信息对应的一个或多个频域资源从可用频域资源集合中删除。此时,候选频域资源集合包括可用频域资源集合中除被删除的频域资源之外的一个或多个频域资源。在目标子时间段之前,且下一个子时间段不是目标子时间段,如果候选频域资源集合不为空,即可用频域资源集合中还有至少一个频域资源没有被其它终端占用,终端设备在下一个子时间段继续监听候选频域资源集合中的至少一个频域资源被占用的指示信息。当在目标子时间段之前的一个子时间段,候选频域资源集合为空,即可用频域资源集合中的所有的频域资源都被其它终端用户占用,终端设备结束本时间段的操作。比如,终端设备不发送频域资源被占用的指示信息,和/或终端设备停止监听后续的子时间段,和/或所述终端设备不在所述第二时间段发送信息。比如,假设可用频域资源集合包括第二频域资源1,2,3,4,目标子时间段为子时间段2。此时,候选频域资源集合也包括第二频域资源1,2,3,4。假设终端设备在子时间段0上监听到第二频域资源1,3被占用的指示信息。则在监听子时间段1时,候选频域资源集合只包括第二频域资源2,4。假设终端设备在时间子时间段1上又监听到第二频域资源2,4被占用的指示信息。则在子时间段2(即目标子时间段),候选频域资源集合为空集,即不包括任何第二频域资源。
如果目标子时间段不是第一时间段的第一部分的第一个子时间段,则终端设备在所述目标子时间段之前的至少一个子时间段上,监听其它终端设备发送的指示信息。如果目标子时间段是第一时间段的第一部分的第一个子时间段,则终端设备不需要监听其它终端设备发送的指示信息。此时,终端设备执行S604。如果终端设备在监听当前子时间之后,候选频域资源集合不为空,且下一个子时间段为目标子时间段,则终端设备执行S604。
一种可能的实现中,终端设备的收发器201可用于监听频域资源被占用的指示信息。或者,终端设备的处理器204控制收发器201监听频域资源被占用的指示信息。
S604,终端设备从候选频域资源集合中选择一个频域资源作为目标频域资源。即,终端设备确定目标频域资源。
候选频域资源集合为所述可用频域资源的子集,且不包括被其它终端设备占用的频域资源。终端设备根据接收到的一个或多个频域资源被占用的指示信息,获得候选频域资源集合。终端设备在候选频域资源 集合包括的至少一个频域资源中选择一个目标频域资源。
本步骤与S502的区别是,本步骤中,终端设备在候选频域资源集合中选择一个频域资源作为目标频域资源,而在S502中,终端设备是在可用频域资源集合中选择一个频域资源作为目标频域资源。本步骤中,终端设备选择目标频域资源的实现方式与S502类似。不再赘述。
一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备的处理器204可用于确定目标频域资源。
S605与S505相同。
S606与S506相同。
终端设备通过执行本发明实施例提供的方法,可以提前发送目标频域资源占用指示信息,以避免其它终端设备与自己发生碰撞。在发送目标频域资源占用指示信息之前,监听其它终端设备发送的一个或多个频域资源占用指示信息,从而选择没有被其它终端设备占用的频域资源,进一步避免自己与其它终端设备发生碰撞,从而减少碰撞概率,降低时延。与图5所示的发明实施例相比,终端设备可以监听更多的频域资源,从而进一步减少碰撞概率,降低时延。
