Description

一种通信方法及设备 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法及设备。
背景技术
基站通过物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)向终端发送下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI),以指示终端接收下行数据的时频资源、调制与编码策略(modulation and coding scheme,MCS)、冗余版本(redundancy version,RV)等配置参数。
终端接收DCI时,在下行控制区域中多个PDCCH候选位置进行盲检(blind detect,BD),一组PDCCH候选位置组成一个搜索空间(search space),基站可以为终端配置一个或多个搜索空间,终端在配置的一个或多个搜索空间中监测,监测是否有发送给该终端的DCI。基站还会为终端配置在每个搜索空间中监测PDCCH的参数,例如监测周期,监测时隙、PDCCH的聚合等级、盲检最大次数等等。
现有技术中,基站可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令,将为终端配置的一个或多个搜索空间以及每个搜索空间对应的监测参数发送给终端;终端则根据接收到的监测参数,在相应的搜索空间中监测PDCCH。然而,基站在为终端配置搜索空间以及监测参数时,仅确定终端当前需要使用的搜索空间以及监测参数,配置不够灵活。

结合第一方面,在第一方面的第五种可能的实现方式中,网络设备可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信息将上述第三信息方式给终端。

具体实施方式
为了使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请作进一步地详细描述。
基站可以RRC信令,将为终端配置的一个或多个搜索空间以及每个搜索空间对应的监测参数发送给终端;终端则根据接收到的监测参数,在相应的搜索空间中监测PDCCH。然而,基站在为终端配置搜索空间以及监测参数时,仅确定终端当前需要使用的搜索空间以及监测参数,配置不够灵活。
为了实现更加灵活的配置,本申请实施例提出了一种通信方法及装置。该方法及装置可以应用于第5代移动通信(the 5th generation,5G)系统、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统或其他通信系统中。本申请实施例可以应用于图1所示的场景中。
本申请实施例中的网络设备可以基站,或其他用于将收到的空中帧与网际协议(internet protocol,IP)分组进行相互转换,作为无线终端设备与接入网的其余部分之间的路由器,其中接入网的其余部分可包括IP网络。网络设备还可用于协调对空中接口的属性管理。其中,在采用不同无线接入技术的通信系统中,具备基站功能的设备的名称可能会有所不同,例如,全球移动通信系统(global system for mobile communication,GSM)或码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)系统中的基站称之为基站(base transceiver station,BTS)、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access,WCDMA)中的基站称之为节点B(node B)、LTE系统中的基站称之为演进型基站(evolutional node B,eNB)、NR系统中的基站称之为通用型基站(general node B,gNB)等。本申请实施例对此不进行不限定。
本申请实施例中的终端设备可以指用户设备(user equipment,UE)、接入终端设备、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端设备、移动设备、用户终端设备、终端设备、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。终端设备还可以是蜂窝电话、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未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的终端设备等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
参见图2,为本申请实施例提供的通信方法的流程示意图,如图所示,该方法可以包括以下步骤:
步骤201、网络设备向终端发送第一信息。该第一信息用于指示第一搜索空间和第二搜索空间,以及第一监测参数和第二监测参数,第一监测参数为该终端在第一搜索空间内监测PDCCH的监测参数,第二监测参数为该终端在第二搜索空间内监测PDCCH的监测参数。
其中,第一搜索空间与第二搜索空间可以是相同的搜索空间,但第一监测参数和第二监测参数不同,即,终端可以在不同时段、不同工作模式、不同场景下,在相同的搜索空间中根据不同的监测参数监测PDCCH。或者,第一搜索空间与第二搜索空间可以为不同的搜索空间,但第一监测参数可以与第二监测参数相同,即,终端可以在不同时段、不同工作模式、不同场景下,在不同的搜索空间中根据相同的监测参数监测PDCCH。或者,第一搜索空间与第二搜索空间不同,且第一监测参数与第二监测参数也不相同,即,终端在不同时段,不同工作模式、不同场景下,在不同的搜索空间中根据各搜索空间的监测参数监测PDCCH。
步骤202、网络设备在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH;或者,网络设备在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH。
在传统的PDCCH监测过程中,网络设备向终端发送搜索空间以及相应的监测参数,终端则在网络设备指示的所有搜索空间内监测;若需要变换搜索空间或监测参数,则网络设备需要将变更后的搜索空间以及所有监测参数重新发送给终端。而在上述方法中,网络设备发送的第一信息中,可以携带多组搜索空间、多组监测参数,而终端在其中一组搜索空间中根据相应的监测参数监测PDCCH,而非在所有搜索空间内监测PDCCH;若需要变换搜索空间或监测参数时,网络设备可以不必再重新发送搜索空间以及全部监测参数,仅指示终端切换搜索空间或监测参数即可。
应当理解,上述实施例中描述的第一消息包括第一搜索空间、第二搜索空间、第一监测参数和第二监测参数,但并不表示第一消息中仅包括这些信息,第一消息中还可以包括第三搜索空间、第三监测参数等等。
若第一消息中还包括第三搜索空间和第三监测参数,网络设备可以进一步指示第三搜索空间和第三监测参数,与第一搜索空间和第一监测参数同属于第一监测组,即,终端可以在同一时段内既在第一搜索空间根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH,也在第三搜索空间根据第三监测参数监测PDCCH;或者,网络设备可以指示第三搜索空间和第三监测参数,与第二搜索空间和第二监测参数同属于第二监测组,即,终端可以在同一时段内既在第二搜索空间根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH,也在第三搜索空间根据第三监测参数监测PDCCH;或者,网络设备还可以指示第三搜索空间和第三监测参数属于第三监测组,即,终端在第三搜索空间根据第三监测参数监测PDCCH时,不根据第一监测参数在第一搜索空间监测PDCCH,也不根据第二监测参数在第二搜索空间监测PDCCH。
可选的,上述监测参数可以包括以下参数中的一种或任意组合:
监测的DCI格式(DCI format):网络设备通过PDCCH传输的DCI有多种格式,根据不同的目的和场景采用不同的格式。例如,用于调度物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)和用于调度物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH)的DCI的格式可能不同。网络设备可以指示终端在相应的搜索空间中监测一种或多种格式的DCI,例如,网络设备可以指示终端在第 一搜索空间中监测的DCI格式为DCI-format0-0-AndFormat1-0、DCI-format2-0、DCI-format2-1、DCI-format2-2、DCI-format2-3,网络设备指示终端在第二搜索空间中监测的DCI格式为DCI-format0-0-AndFormat1-0、DCI-format2-0。
监测周期:网络设备可以为终端配置监测周期,指示终端根据监测周期在搜索空间中监测PDCCH。监测周期可以以时隙为单元,例如,若网络设备指示监测周期为8,则表示监测周期为8个时隙。当然,监测周期的单元也不限于时隙,还可以是毫秒(ms)、子帧等。
监测时隙:用于表示终端监测PDCCH的时隙。一般来说,终端在一个监测周期中监测1个时隙,例如,若网络设备可以指示监测周期为10个时隙,监测时隙为时隙0。当然,终端也可以在一个监测周期中监测多个时隙,若监测的多个时隙为连续时隙,那么该监测时隙参数,可以进一步包括监测起始时隙以及监测时长,分别表示终端在一个监测周期中从哪个时隙开始监测并持续监测几个时隙;或者,网络设备也可以通过比特位图表示在一个监测周期在监测哪几个时隙,即,每个比特位对应监测周期中的1个时隙,该比特位的值表示是否监测该时隙,用于指示终端在一个监测周期中监测一个时隙、多个连续时隙或多个非连续时隙。当然,网络设备指示的时间单位也可以是毫秒(ms)、子帧等,那么网络设备也可以发送监测时间(ms)、监测子帧等参数。
通常情况下,监测周期与监测时隙这两个参数一同发送给终端配合使用,通过“监测时隙周期和偏移(monitoringSlotPeriodicityAndOffset)”参数发送给终端。
待监测时隙中监测的时长(duration):用于表示终端在需要监测的一个时隙中监测的时长,其单位可以为符号。
待监测时隙中监测的起始符号(monitoringSymbolsWithinSlot):用于表示终端在需要监测的时隙中监测PDCCH的起始符号。例如,一个时隙中包括14个符号,分别对应14比特,若14个比特的值为10000001000000,则表示终端在一个待监测时隙中的符号0和符号7开始监测PDCCH。进一步地,若duration的值为3,即一次监测持续3个符号,那么终端则在符号0、符号1、符号2以及符号7、符号8、符号9上监测PDCCH。
监测的PDCCH的聚合等级以及在所述聚合等级下需要监测的PDCCH候选位置的数量(nrofCandidates):
聚合等级(aggregationLevelx)表示一个PDCCH所包含的控制信道元素(control channel element,CCE)的数量,若一个PDCCH由1个CCE构成,则其聚合等级为1,若一个PDCCH由2个CCE构成,则其聚合等级为2,以此类推。常用的聚合等级有1、2、4、8、16。
监测PDCCH候选位置的数量,表示在搜索空间中终端监测PDCCH候选位置的最大数量。例如,若一个搜索空间包括8个CCE,那么对于聚合等级为1的PDCCH来说,则有8个PDCCH候选位置,若网络设备指示的监测PDCCH候选位置的数量为6,则表示终端根据预设规则从8个PDCCH候选位置中选择6个进行监测。
搜索空间类型(searchSpaceType):表示网络设备指示的搜索空间为公共搜索空间(common)还是用户设备专用搜索空间(UE-specific)。
在一种可能的实现方式中,在上述步骤202之前,网络设备还可以向终端发送第二信息,用于指示终端在第一搜索空间中根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH;或者,用于指示终端在第二搜索空间中根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH。在该方式中,由网络设备确定并直接指示终端在哪个搜索空间中采用哪些监测参数监测PDCCH。
例如,网络设备可以预先配置第一搜索空间以及第一监测参数对应索引1,第二搜索空间以及第二监测参数对应索引2,第三搜索空间以及第三监测参数对应索引3。若网络设备确定终端应在第一搜索 空间中根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH、确定该网络设备在第一搜索空间中根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH,那么网络设备发送的第二消息中可以包括索引1的指示信息。若网络设备确定终端应用在第二搜索空间中根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH,并在第三搜索空间中根据第三监测参数监测PDCCH,那么网络设备发送的第二消息中可以包括索引2和索引3的指示信息。
又例如,网络设备可以预先配置第一搜索空间以及第一监测参数、第三搜索空间以及第三监测参数对应监测组1,第二搜索空间以及第二监测参数对应监测组2。若网络设备确定该网络设备根据监测组1中监测参数发送PDCCH、终端应根据监测组1中的监测参数监测PDCCH,那么网络设备发送的第二信息中可以包括监测组1的指示信息。
可选地,网络设备可以将第一消息和第二消息携带在同一信令中发送给终端。一般来说,第一消息通常通过RRC信令发送给终端,那么网络设备可以将第一消息和第二消息一同携带在RRC信令中发给终端。当然,网络设备也可以通过其它信令将第一消息和第二消息发送给终端,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
此外,网络设备也可以通过不同的信令将第一消息和第二消息发送给终端。那么网络设备在发送第二消息时,可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令将第二消息发送给终端。其中,由于DCI信令属于物理层信令,MAC CE信令属于MAC层信令,RRC信令属于RRC层信令,而终端解析信令时依次经过物理层解析、MAC层解析、RRC层解析。因此,若通过DCI信令发送第二消息,则时延较短;若通过RRC信令发送第二消息,则时延较长;若通过MAC CE信令发送第二消息,则时延在通过DCI信令发送与通过RRC信令发送之间。
进一步地,在上述步骤202之后,网络设备还可以在确定需要变换终端监测PDCCH的搜索空间以及监测参数时,向终端发送指示消息,以指示终端变换后的搜索空间以及监测参数。该指示消息与第二消息类似,可以包括变换后的搜索空间以及监测参数的索引信息,或者包括变换后的监测组的索引信息。该指示消息也可以通过DCI、MAC CE、RRC信令发送给终端。
在传统的PDCCH监测过程中,若网络设备确定需要变换终端的搜索空间以及监测参数,则通过RRC重配过程,将变换后的搜索空间以及相应的监测参数发送给终端,信令开销较大。而在上述实现方式中,网络设备已经在第一消息中将多种可能的搜索空间以及相应的监测参数发送给终端,上述指示消息中可以仅包括变换后的搜索空间以及监测参数对应的索引信息,减少了信令开销。此外,若通过DCI、MAC CE信息发送上述指示信息,还有助于降低时延。
在一种可能的实现方式中,上述步骤202可以包括如图3所示的两种情况。具体地:
步骤202a、若终端处于第一工作模式,则网络设备在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH。
步骤202b、若终端处于第二工作模式,则网络设备在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH。
在上述实现方式中,网络设备可以预先配置第一搜索空间与第一监测参数对应第一工作模式、第二搜索空间与第二监测参数对应第二工作模式,那么网络设备和终端可以根据终端当前的工作模式,确定发送、监测PDCCH所使用的搜索空间以及监测参数。
应当理解,与第一工作模式对应的工作参数包括第一搜索空间以及第一监测参数,但不限于此。例如,第一工作模式还可以与终端的工作带宽大小、激活的载波个数、进行多天线多数输入多输出(multiple-input multiple-output,MIMO)通信时的收发天线数量等参数有关。在一个具体示例中,网络设备为终端配置在第一工作模式下工作时:工作带宽为20MHz,激活3个载波,在搜索空间1内根据监测参数1监测PDCCH等等;为终端配置在第二工作模式下工作时:工作带宽为10MHz,激活1个载波, 在搜索空间1内根据监测参数1监测PDCCH等等。那么,终端在确定工作由第一工作模式切换至第二工作模式时,终端则在搜索空间2中根据监测参数2监测PDCCH,工作带宽从20MHz切换至10MHz,从激活3个载波切换至激活1个载波。当然,网络设备配置的各种参数,可以通过同一信令或多条信令发送给终端。
在一些实施例中,网络设备可以向终端发送第三消息,用于指示终端的工作模式。具体的,网络设备中可以预先配置有终端工作模式切换策略,网络设备可以根据该工作模式切换策略,以及当前的网络环境、终端的状态、终端的需求等因素,确定终端当前的工作模式,并向终端发送用于指示终端工作模式的第三信息。若第三信息指示终端工作在第一工作模式,那么终端则在第一搜索空间中根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH,相应的,网络设备在发送第三信息后,在第一搜索空间中根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH;若第三信息指示终端工作在第二工作模式,那么终端则在第二搜索空间中根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH,相应的,网络设备在发送第三信息后,在第二搜索空间中根据第二监测参数发送PDCCH。
可选地,网络设备可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令等将第三消息发送给终端。
在另外一些实施例中,可以在网络设备和终端中均预先配置有终端工作模式切换策略,网络设备和终端都可以根据工作模式切换策略,以及当前的网络环境、终端的状态、终端的需求等因素,确定终端当前的工作模式。例如,若网络设备在预设时间段内没有向终端发送DCI,则终端和网络设备根据预设的工作模式切换策略,可以确定切换终端的工作模式,以减少终端监测PDCCH的次数,此时,网络设备可以不必向终端发送用于指示工作模式的消息。
还有一些实施例,终端中可以预先配置有工作模式切换策略,终端根据该工作模式切换策略,以及当前的网络环境、终端的状态、终端的需求等因素,确定当前的工作模式,在确定切换工作模式后,终端可以向网络设备发送第四消息,用于将切换后的工作模式通知给网络设备,以使终端和网络设备在相同的搜索空间中根据相同的监测参数发送、监测PDCCH。其中,第四消息可以通过上行控制信息(uplink control information,UCI)、MAC CE RRC信令发送给网络设备。例如,终端的电量降到预设阈值时,则终端可以切换至省电模式,省电模式对应搜索空间1以及监测参数1,该模式下终端监测PDCCH的最大次数比其他工作模式下的最大监测次数要少。那么终端在搜索空间1中根据监测参数1监测PDCCH;终端向网络设备发送第四消息,该第四消息用于指示终端切换至省电模式,则网络设备在搜索空间1中根据监测参数发送PDCCH。
可选地,网络设备在接收到终端发送的用于指示切换工作模式的指示消息后,可以向终端发送响应消息,以表示网络设备是否成功切换工作模式,确保终端和网络设备在相同的工作模式下工作,避免终端和网络设备工作模式不同导致的消息发送、接收错误。具体地,网络设备发送的响应消息,可以用于指示是否切换成功,例如,用“1”表示已成功切换,用“0”表示切换失败;或者,网络设备也可以在该响应消息中,携带网络设备当前确定出的工作模式的信息,例如,若网络设备从工作模式1切换至工作模式2,那么该响应消息中携带工作模式2的信息,若未切换成功,该响应消息中携带工作模式1的消息,此时,该响应消息与前述实施例中的第三消息类似,用于指示终端根据该消息中携带的工作模式的信息,在相应工作模式下工作。
在另外一种可能的实现方式中,上述步骤202也可以包括如图4所示的两种情况。具体地:
步骤202c、若终端被配置了DRX,则网络设备在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH。
步骤202d、若终端没有被配置DRX,则网络设备在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH。
在上述实现方式中,网络设备可以预先配置第一搜索空间与第一监测参数对应终端被配置了DRX 的情况、第二搜索空间与第二监测参数对应终端未被配置DRX的情况,那么网络设备和终端可以根据终端当前是否被配置了DRX的情况,确定发送、监测PDCCH所使用的搜索空间以及监测参数。
具体地,处于RRC连接态(RRC_connected)的终端,可以被配置DRX,即,终端并不连续监测PDCCH,而是在激活期(on duration)中监测PDCCH,在休眠期(opportunity for DRX)中不监测PDCCH,从而减少终端的功耗,如图5所示。一个激活期与一个休眠期构成一个DRX周期。
例如,若终端未被配置DRX,终端可以按照前述实施例中的监测周期监测PDCCH,由于监测时间较长,可以采用在一个监测周期中监测PDCCH次数较少的监测参数监测PDCCH;若终端被配置了DRX,可以采用在一个监测周期中监测PDCCH次数较多的监测参数监测PDCCH。
应当理解,若终端被配置了DRX,则前述实施例中的在一个监测周期中的某些时隙上监测PDCCH,是指在激活期中进一步设置监测周期,即,终端在激活期中的部分时隙上监测PDCCH,在激活期的其他时隙上不监测PDCCH。
此外,若终端被配置了DRX,但配置的DRX参数也可能根据不同场景下的不同需求有所改变。那么,上述步骤202也可以包括如图6所示的两种情况。具体地:
步骤202e、若终端被配置了第一DRX参数,则网络设备在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第一搜索空间内根据第一监测参数监测PDCCH。
步骤202f、若终端被配置了第二DRX参数,则网络设备在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数发送PDCCH,终端在第二搜索空间内根据第二监测参数监测PDCCH。
其中,DRX参数可以包括一个DRX周期的时长,一个周期中激活期的时长,一个周期中激活期的起始位置,休眠定时器(InactivityTimer)的时长,混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)重传定时器(timer)的时长等。
应当理解,上述第一DRX参数、第二DRX参数可以分别包括一个或多个参数,即,第一DRX参数、第二DRX参数可以用于表示参数组。
在上述实现方式中,网络设备可以预先配置第一搜索空间与第一监测参数对应第一DRX参数、第二搜索空间与第二监测参数对应第二DRX参数,那么网络设备和终端可以根据终端被配置的DRX参数,确定发送、监测PDCCH所使用的搜索空间以及监测参数。
为了更清楚解释本申请上述实施例,下面进行举例说明。
实施例1、
传统的PDCCH搜索空间以及监测参数配置过程中,网络设备可以向终端发送RRC信令,该信令中可以包括添加的搜索空间列表(searchSpacesToAddModList)、删除的搜索空间列表(searchSpacesToReleaseList),用于指示终端PDCCH的搜索空间。
为了减少对现有方案的改动,可以仍采用上述参数,用于指示终端第一搜索空间,该第一搜索空间对应的索引可以为正常(normal)。另外增加新的参数:节能的搜索空间列表(searchSpacesForPowerSavingToAddModList),用于指示第二搜索空间,该第二搜索空间对应的索引可以为节能(powerSaving)。
网络设备还可以在上述消息中增加一个新的参数(usage),该参数的值可以表示normal或powerSaving,即,该参数用于指示终端采用第一搜索空间监测PDCCH还是采用第二搜索空间监测PDCCH,该参数也可以被缺省,若该参数缺省,则终端采用默认值normal。或者,网络设备也可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令向终端发送包含上述参数(usage)的指示消息。
此后,若网络设备确定切换终端监测的PDCCH,可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令向终端发送包含上述参数(usage)的指示消息,以指示终端切换后的搜索空间。
实施例2、
传统的PDCCH搜索空间以及监测参数配置过程中,网络设备可以向终端发送RRC信令,该信令中可以包括监测时隙周期和偏移(monitoringSlotPeriodicityAndOffset)、待监测时隙中监测的起始符号(monitoringSymbolsWithinSlot)、待监测时隙中监测的时长(duration)、监测的PDCCH的聚合等级以及在所述聚合等级下需要监测的PDCCH候选位置的数量(nrofCandidates)。
为了减少对现有方案的改动,可以仍采用上述参数,用于指示终端第一监测参数,该第一监测参数对应的索引可以为正常(normal)。具体的,监测周期为2个时隙,监测时隙为时隙0,在一个待监测时隙中从符号0、符号7开始监测,监测持续3个符号,即,终端则在符号0、符号1、符号2以及符号7、符号8、符号9上监测PDCCH,监测的PDCCH的聚合等级以及在所述聚合等级下需要监测的PDCCH候选位置的数量(nrofCandidates)可以如表1所示。
表1
聚合等级18
聚合等级28
聚合等级46
聚合等级84
聚合等级16 2
另外增加新的参数:节能的监测时隙周期和偏移(monitoringSlotPeriodicityAndOffsetForPowerSaving),表示监测周期为10个时隙,在时隙0上监测;节能的待监测时隙中监测的起始符号(monitoringSymbolsWithinSlot ForPowerSaving)和节能的待监测时隙中监测的时长(durationForPowerSaving),表示在一个待监测时隙中监测符号0、符号1、符号2;监测的PDCCH的聚合等级以及在所述聚合等级下需要监测的PDCCH候选位置的数量(nrofCandidates)如表2所示。
表2
聚合等级14
聚合等级24
聚合等级43
聚合等级82
聚合等级16 1
根据表1可知,在一个待监测时隙上,盲检的最大次数为8+8+6+4+2=28次,根据第一监测参数可知,在10时隙(5个监测周期)中,终端盲检最大次数为28*5=140次。根据表2可知,在一个待监测时隙上,盲检的最大次数为4+4+3+2+1=14次,根据第二监测参数可知,在10个时隙(1个监测周期)中,终端盲检的最大次数为10次。故终端在采用第二监测参数时需要监测PDCCH的时间更短,有助于节省终端的功耗。
网络设备还可以增加一个新的参数(usage),该参数的值可以表示normal或powerSaving,即,该参数用于指示终端采用第一监测参数还是采用第二监测参数,该参数也可以被缺省,若该参数缺省,则终端采用默认值normal。
此后,若网络设备确定切换终端监测的PDCCH,可以通过DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令向终端发送包含上述参数(usage)的指示消息。
实施例3、
终端可以有两种工作模式:正常工作模式(normal mode)和节能工作模式(power saving mode)。 每个搜索空间都对应一种工作模式对应,例如,搜索空间1和监测参数1对应中产工作模式,搜索空间2和监测参数2对应节能工作模式。网络设备向终端发送的搜索空间、监测参数的信息与实施例1、2中类似,此处不再赘述。
网络设备可以向终端发送DCI、MAC CE或RRC信令,该信令中包括工作模式参数(mode),该参数的值可以表示正常工作模式或节能工作模式,用于指示终端的工作模式。
在该实施例中,网络设备指示终端的工作模式,并非仅仅用于指示终端监测PDCCH的搜索空间以及监测参数,还可以用于指示终端的工作带宽大小、激活的载波个数等等。

实施例5、
网络设备可以为终端配置搜索空间1以及监测参数1,用于终端在DRX的周期小于50ms时监测PDCCH;还可以为终端配置组搜索空间2以及监测参数2,用于终端在DRX周期大于等于50ms时监测PDCCH。网络设备向终端发送的搜索空间、监测参数的信息与实施例1、2中类似,此处不再赘述。
网络设备可以向终端发送DCI、MAC CE、RRC等信令,该信令中可以包括为终端配置的DRX参数,该DRX参数包括DRX周期等。终端和网络设备可以根据该DRX参数确定采用第一组搜索空间以及监测参数或第二组搜索空间以及监测参数。
实施例6、
网络设备可以为终端配置搜索空间1以及监测参数1,其中,监测参数1中包括DCI格式参数,指示终端监测的DCI格式为DCI-format0-0-AndFormat1-0、DCI-format2-0、DCI-format2-1、DCI-format2-2、DCI-format2-3;网络设备还可以为终端配置搜索空间2以及监测参数2,该监测参数2中也包括DCI格式参数,指示终端监测的DCI格式为DCI-format0-0-AndFormat1-0、DCI-format2-0。
上述DCI格式仅为举例,网络设备指示终端监测的DCI格式可以为5G系统中的DCI格式、LTE系统中的DCI格式或未来的其他DCI格式。例如,未来的一些DCI格式还可以指示终端是否进行一段时间的休眠、多长时间从休眠状态醒来等等。
网络设备向终端发送的搜索空间、监测参数的信息与实施例1、2中类似,此处不再赘述。
应当理解,上述具体实施例中增加的搜索空间列表名称、搜索空间索引的名称、参数名称、DCI格式的名称等均为举例,不对本申请实施例构成限制。
