Description

IAB网络中IAB节点信息的处理方法及装置 技术领域
本公开涉及通信领域,具体而言,涉及一种综合接入回传IAB网络中IAB节点信息的处理方法及装置。
背景技术
在3GPP正在研究的第五代移动通信技术(5th Generation,简称为5G)将实现更大的吞吐量,更多的用户连接,更低时延,更高可靠性,和更低功耗(包括网络侧设备和用户终端)。目前,在3GPP的讨论中,综合接入回传(Integrated Access and Backhaul,简称为IAB)技术作为一个新的研究项目已经立项,其目标是:使一个或多个IAB节点可以作为母节点的UE通过其本地接入资源连接到母节点,并在此基础上形成多跳的无线自回传网络为IAB节点的本地接入UE提供回传连接。
5G UDN(Ultra-Dense Network,超密网)部署场景中,需要考虑不同回传技术的适用性。对于有线回传,在大量TP密集部署的场景下(如密集街区),考虑到电缆或光纤的部署或租赁成本,站址的选择及维护成本等,可能使有线回传的成本高得难以接受。即便铺设了有线回传,由于密集部署场景下,每个节点服务的用户数少,负载波动大,或由于节能/干扰控制,一些节点会被动态打开或关闭,很多时候回传链路处于空闲状态,而使用内容预测及缓存技术也会增加回传链路资源需求的波动范围,因此会导致有线回传的使用效率低,浪费投资成本。对于微波回传,也存在增加硬件成本,增加额外的频谱成本(如果使用非授权频谱,传输质量得不到保证),传输节点的天线高度相对较低,微波更容易被遮挡,导致回传链路质量的剧烈波动等缺陷。
采用无线自回传技术,是避免上述问题、减少投资成本(Capital Expense,简称为CAPEX)的重要技术选择之一。自回传技术是指回传链路和接入链路使用相同的无线传输技术,共用同一频带,通过时分或频分方式复用资源。
除此之外,无线自回程技术还可以用于有线连接部署成本较大的场景。RAN3#99会议的WA for IAB Architecture for L2/3 relaying(R3-181502)中提及了五种relay架构。其中1a)架构是考虑在CU/DU分离的基础上通过增加具有自回传功能的DU来中继业务流。图1是相关技术中3GPP参考中继架构1a的示意图,如图1所示,IAB节点(IAB Node)作为一个DU为本地UE提供接入服务,各个IAB节点通过本地的一个移动终端(MT)和上一级的母节点相联。该MT作为母节点的接入用户和母节点的其他用户(UE)共享接入带宽。由于DU和CU之间是通过F1接口进行联系,所以IAB节点的DU和IAB Donor的CU之间需要建立一个一跳或多跳的数据承载来传输F1消息。在每一跳,该数据承载又是通过MT和DU之间的无线NR Uu承载进行数据传输。所以,对于多跳的F1承载,中间的IAB节点需要对收到的F1消息进行转发。这个转发过程在中间节点可以由IP层或Adapt层实现。具 体的,IP层或Adapt层可以根据收到的数据包的目标地址(如目标IAB Node ID)或其他信息将数据包转发到下一条的连接中。IAB Donor是具有有线连接的节点,其可以包含一个DU和一个CU。
图2是相关技术中3GPP参考中继架构1a中由中间节点的Adapt层实现转发的示意图,如图2所示,在每个IAB节点中,需要增加一个适配层(Adapt层)实现F1接口数据的发送,接收和转发。
综上所述,IAB节点就是IAB网络中利用自回传连接提供远端接入的节点。IAB Donor基站是指IAB网络中具有有线的核心网连接的节点,其他IAB节点通过Donor基站接入核心网。
但是在多跳IAB网络中,由于无线链路的变化,IAB节点可能需要切换到其他上级节点,而在切换过程中不丢包,并在切换后恢复各项业务的回传,以及实现下行通知这些都是相关技术中目前尚未解决的问题。
