Description

切换控制方法以及通信装置 技术领域
本发明涉及无线通信技术领域,更具体地,本发明涉及的切换控制方法以及通信装置。
背景技术
随着移动通信的快速增长和技术的巨大进步,世界将走向一个完全互联互通的网络社会,即任何人或任何东西在任何时间和任何地方都可以获得信息和共享数据。预计到2020年,互联设备的数量将达到500亿部,其中仅有100亿部左右可能是手机和平板电脑,其它的则不是与人对话的机器,而是彼此对话的机器。因此,如何设计系统以更好地支持万物互联是一项需要深入研究的课题。
为此,在2016年3月举行的第三代合作伙伴计划(3GPP)RAN#64次全会上,提出了新5G无线接入技术的研究课题(参见非专利文献:RP-160671New SID Proposal:Study on New Radio Access Technology)。该项目的研究目的之一是找到用于满足NR中的移动性需求之一:无缝切换,即在小区切换过程中能够满足0毫秒的切换中断时间。在正在研究的降低切换中断时间的解决方案中,有一种解决方法称为基于条件的切换(Conditional HandOver,CHO)。在CHO机制中,基站提前下发切换命令给UE并配置UE在一定条件满足时再根据之前收到的切换命令来执行切换,这样通过切换命令的提前下发可以提高切换命令接收的成功率,从而避免因切换命令接收失败而带来的切换失败对业务中断带来的时延。
和传统的切换不同,UE收到CHO命令时,并不马上执行切换,而是要等到满足设定的条件,例如链路质量低于某个门限时才会执行CHO。对于一个处于单连接的UE,CHO由源基站下发,但不确定何时会被用户执行,因此,源基站如何知晓停止与UE之间的数据传输是一个需要 解决的问题。类似的,对于一个处于双连接(Dual Connectiveity)的UE,源主基站和源辅基站同时为UE服务。CHO由源主基站下发,但不确定何时会被用户执行,因此源主基站以及源辅基站如何知晓停止与UE之间的数据传输也是一个需要解决的问题。
此外,目标主基站在增加目标辅基站时,由于目标辅基站分配的资源(对应于辅服务小区的相关配置)是有时效性的,这种时效性会影响UE以及基站的资源管理和操作管理,如何避免配置失效导致的连接失败,是需要解决的问题。也就是说,如何保持目标辅基站分配的资源有效(时效性)的情况下,进行基站的资源管理以及切换控制,是现有技术中需要解决的问题。
发明内容

下文以LTE移动通信系统及其后续的演进版本作为示例应用环境,以支持LTE的基站eNB和UE设备为例,具体描述了根据本发明的多个实施方式。然而,需要指出的是,本发明不限于以下实施方式,而是可适用于更多其它的无线通信系统,例如eLTE通信系统,NR通信系统,而且可以适用于其他基站和UE设备,例如支持eLTE的基站和UE设备,以及支持NR的基站gNB和UE设备。
在对本发明的具体实施例进行说明之前,基于图5对现有技术中的一般性的切换控制方法进行简单说明。
图5是表示现有技术中的切换控制方法的示意时序图。如图5所示,用户设备UE与源主基站以及源辅基站进行数据传输,在步骤S501中,源主基站向目标基站发送切换请求,源主基站收到目标基站的切换请求 确认消息(S502)后,向UE发送RRC重配置信息(S503),以及向源辅基站发送辅基站释放请求(S504)。并且把接下来到达的数据以及未发送成功的数据转发给目标基站(S506,S507)。
因为正常情况下,UE接收到RRC重配置信息(S503)后会立刻执行切换的流程,同步到目标基站指派的目标小区。所以,源主基站可以直接向源辅基站发送辅基站释放请求(S504),以及将数据转发给目标基站(S506)。源辅基站基于收到的释放请求(S504),停止向UE提供数据传输。
然而,在条件切换中,当UE接收到了用于条件切换的RRC重配置消息,需要等到条件切换的条件被满足了才会执行切换。这里所述的“用于条件切换的RRC重配置消息”可以是指条件切换消息,或者是携带了条件切换相关配置信息的RRC重配置消息。在UE执行条件切换之前,UE和源主基站以及源辅基站的通信是正常执行的。因此,现有技术的切换控制中存在如下问题:源主基站如何知晓应当停止和UE的通信,以及源辅基站如何知晓应当停止和UE的通信。
以下,对本发明所涉及的具体实施例进行详细说明。另外,本发明的实施例是为了容易理解本发明而进行的示例性说明,并不是对本发明的限定。
实施例1
基于图1对本发明的实施例1进行详细说明。图1是表示本发明的切换控制方法的一个例子的示意时序图。
如图1所示,在步骤S101中,源基站向目标基站发送条件切换请求,在步骤S102中,目标基站向源基站发送条件切换请求确认。源基站接收到目标基站发送的条件切换请求确认之后,向UE发送条件切换消息(S103),其中,该条件切换消息可以是RRC重配置消息。
目标基站接收到来自UE的RRC连接重配置完成消息(S104)之后,向源基站发送切换完成消息(S105),优选的,目标基站向源基站发送条件切换完成消息(S105),即指示条件切换完成的消息。该消息的目的是通知源基站UE已经接入目标基站,以及可选的通知源基站执行条件切换的UE已经接入目标基站或者是该UE已经执行完成条件切换。
这里所述的“条件切换完成消息”可以是专门用于该目的的消息, 也可以是一条通用消息,在该通用消息中,携带了指示前述目的的指示信息。此外,在该消息中至少要携带UE的身份标识,使得源基站能够识别该UE,例如eNB UE X2AP ID,
这里所述的“来自UE的RRC连接重配置完成消息”,优选的,该重配置完成消息可以是如下的消息:
可以是指示UE完成了条件切换到新小区发送的第一条RRC消息;
还可以是对应于UE之前接收到的用于条件切换的RRC连接重配置消息,又或者是对应于当条件切换被触发/启动时,UE所执行的RRC连接重配置消息,又或者是对应于UE所执行的条件切换命令;
由于切换又可以被称为是执行了同步到新小区的重配置过程,因此,本文所指的条件切换过程还可以是指当满足特定条件,UE执行的同步到新小区的重配置过程。
当源基站接收到目标基站发送的切换完成消息(S105)后,可以将数据转发给目标基站(S106,S107)。在这一过程中,可以理解为,当源基站接收到切换完成消息(S105)时,明确地知道UE已经切换到别的小区,从而不需要再向该UE提供数据,可以停止源基站和UE之间数据传输。
实施例2
基于图2对本发明的实施例2进行说明,图2是表示本发明的切换控制方法的另一例子的示意时序图。
在实施例2中,如图2所示,处于双连接(Dual Connectiveity)的UE与包含源主基站和源辅基站的源基站进行数据传输。如图2所示,实施例2的步骤S201~S203与实施例1的步骤S101~S103基本相同,仅将“源基站”变更为“源主基站”,对于相同或者相近的内容在此省略说明。
在步骤S204中,目标基站接收到来自UE的RRC连接重配置完成消息之后,向源主基站发送切换完成消息(S205),优选的,在步骤S205中,目标基站向源主基站发送条件切换完成消息。该消息的目的是通知源基站UE已经接入目标基站,以及可选的通知源基站执行条件切换的UE已经接入目标基站,又或者是该UE已经执行完成条件切换。这里所述的“条件切换完成消息”可以是专门用于该目的的消息,也可以是一 条通用消息,在该通用消息中,携带了指示前述目的的指示信息。此外,在该消息中至少要携带UE的身份标识,使得源基站能够唯一识别该UE,例如eNB UE X2AP ID,
当源主基站接收到目标基站发送的切换完成消息(S205)后,向源辅基站发送辅基站释放请求(S206)。可以理解为,当源主基站接收到(S205),明确的知道UE已经切换到别的小区,从而不需要再向该UE提供数据,可以停止源主基站和UE之间数据传输。源主基站还可以判定源辅基站可以停止向UE提供数据,从而,源主基站向源辅基站发送辅基站释放请求(S206)
当源辅基站接收到辅基站释放请求时,停止向UE发送/提供数据,以及可选的,开始转发数据。
实施例3
基于图3对本发明的实施例3进行详细说明。图3是表示本发明的切换控制方法的又一例子的示意时序图。
实施例3中同样包含:源主基站向目标基站发送条件切换请求的步骤;目标基站向源主基站发送条件切换请求确认的步骤。为了简洁起见,图3中并未体现。
在源主基站接收到目标基站发送的条件切换请求确认之后,在步骤S301中,源主基站向UE发送条件切换消息,其中,该条件切换消息可以是RRC重配置消息。
在UE中当条件切换命令对应的条件被满足时,或者条件切换被触发时,UE向管理辅小区的辅基站发送信息(S302),例如可以发送条件切换启动消息,用于指示条件切换被触发,或者指示UE在辅小区群的传输将被挂起,以及可选的,可以进一步指示挂起的原因时条件切换被触发。
具体而言,而已进行如下操作。
当条件切换命令对应的条件被满足时,或者是条件切换被触发时,UE的RRC层指示SCG MAC生成MAC CE,该MAC CE用来指示或者携带下述的至少一个信息:
UE在辅小区群的传输将被挂起,以及可选的,进一步指示挂起的原因时条件切换被触发;
UE的辅小区群的配置将被释放,以及可选的,进一步指示释放的原因时条件切换被触发;
条件切换被触发或者启动。
当该MAC CE被发送之后,UE可以停止与源SCG小区的上行传输和下行接收,以及可以停止控制SCG更改或者释放的有关的定时器,以及可以释放整个SCG配置,或者是重配置DRB,又或者是根据用于条件切换的RRC连接重配置信息中的SCG配置执行相应的配置操作。
或者,作为另一例,当条件切换命令对应的条件被满足时,或者时条件切换被触发时,UE的RRC层生成RRC消息,该消息用来指示或者携带下述的至少一个信息:
UE在辅小区群的传输将被挂起,以及可选的,进一步指示挂起的原因时条件切换被触发;
UE的辅小区群的配置将被释放,以及可选的,进一步指示释放的原因时条件切换被触发;
条件切换被触发或者启动。
当该RRC消息被发送之后,UE可以停止与源SCG小区的上行传输和下行接收,以及可以停止控制SCG更改或者释放的有关的定时器,以及可以释放整个SCG配置,或者是重配置DRB,又或者是根据用于条件切换的RRC连接重配置信息中的SCG配置执行相应的配置操作。
这里所述的RRC消息可以通过SRB3传输。即如果UE没有被配置SRB3,那么UE可以不传输该RRC消息。
当源辅基站接收到上述条件切换启动信息(S302)时,可以停止向UE发送/提供数据。优选的,源辅基站还可以向源主基站发送消息,指示UE的条件切换被触发/启动/执行。当源主基站接收到指示或携带该信息的消息时,源主基站可以停止向UE发送/提供数据传输。优选的,源辅基站可以向源主基站发送辅基站释放请求消息(S303)(SENB RELEASE REQUIRED),并在该消息中携带指示信息,通过指示信息来指示下述的至少一个信息:
UE在辅小区群的传输将被挂起,以及可选的,进一步指示挂起的原因时条件切换被触发;
UE的辅小区群的配置将被释放,以及可选的,进一步指示释放的 原因时条件切换被触发;
条件切换被触发或者启动。
源主基站可以基于上述辅基站释放请求消息判定UE已经执行了条件切换,因此停止向UE提供数据。
实施例4
下面,基于图4对本发明的实施例4进行说明。图4表示本发明的切换控制方法的其他例子的示意时序图。
在实施例4中,可以将实施例2和实施例3相结合来使用。对于与实施例2、3相同或者相近的内容,在此省略其说明,可参照上述实施例2、3(图2、3)中相应的部分。
具体而言,在实施例4中,当条件切换命令对应的条件被满足时,或者条件切换被触发时,UE向管理辅小区的辅基站发送信息(S402),该信息可以是条件切换启动信息。并且,接收到UE发送的RRC重配置完成消息的目标基站,向源主基站发送条件切换完成消息(S405)。接收到该条件切换完成消息之后的具体操作内容,可以参照实施例2以及实施例3中的内容,在此不再重复说明。
此外,目标主基站在增加目标辅基站时,由于目标辅基站分配的资源(对应于辅服务小区的相关配置)是有时效性的,这种时效性会影响UE以及基站的资源管理和操作管理,如何避免配置失效导致的误操作,以及相应的连接失败,是需要解决的问题。以下的实施例5~7中针对上述问题进行了探讨。
实施例5
在条件切换准备阶段(即源基站发送切换请求以及接收目标基站发送的切换请求确认这段期间),当目标基站接收到来自源基站的、关于条件切换的请求时,目标基站向另外一个基站(这里称为目标辅基站)发送辅基站增加请求消息,在该增加请求消息中,目标基站直接或者间接,隐示或者显示地指示该辅基站增加请求用于条件切换。
接收到该增加请求消息的目标辅基站可以基于所述的指示信息判断是否要接收该辅基站增加请求。
实施例6
在实施例5的基础上,在基站接收到的辅基站增加请求消息中,可以携带时间参数,该参数用于辅基站设置定时器T DCoverall
具体的设置方法可以是,目标辅基站直接设置定时器的运行时长等于该时间参数的值;又或者是设置定时器的运行时长等于该时间参数的值加上或者减去某个变量;又或者是以该时间参数为参考设置定时器的运行时长,即可认为是基于该时间参数设置定时器T DCoverall的时长。
当辅基站增加请求被目标辅基站接收/确认,目标辅基站会启动定时器T DCoverall,当该定时器运行超时时,目标辅基站会发起辅基站释放请求,即向目标基站发送辅基站释放请求(SENB RELEASE REQUIRED);如果在定时器T DCoverall运行期间,目标辅基站接收到了来自目标基站的重配置完成相关的信息,则停止运行定时器T DCoverall
又或者,当基站接收到的指示用于条件切换请求的(或者是和条件切换请求相关的)辅基站增加请求消息时,启动定时器T0。T0的时长设置方法同上述T DCoverall相同。T0和T DCoverall的差别在于T0仅用于和条件切换请求相关的辅基站增加请求,而T DCoverall用于与条件切换无关的辅基站请求之外。
实施例7
在UE接收到的携带条件切换相关信息的消息(例如RRC重配置消息)中,如果包含了双连接的配置,即既包含主服务小区组的配置,又包含辅服务小区组的配置,那么相应的,还可以包含针对主服务小区组的配置的有效性的时长配置,以及包含针对辅服务小区组的配置的有效性的时长配置。在具体实施时,可以进行如下操作:
当UE接收到用于条件切换的双连接配置,分别为主服务小区的配置和辅服务小区的配置启动不同的定时器T1和T2,T1的时长配置为前文所述的针对主服务小区组的配置的有效性的时长配置;T2的时长配置为前文所述的针对辅服务小区组的配置的有效性的时长配置。优选的T2小于等于T1。
当T2超时时,辅服务小区的相关配置失效;
当T1超时时,主服务小区的相关配置失效。
这里的“配置失效”是指UE不会执行相应的配置。
当T2超时,T1还在运行时,如果对应的条件切换被触发,那么UE可以按照接收到的主服务小区的相关配置执行,而不执行其相应的辅服务小区的相关配置。并且,在接下来发送给目标基站的重配置完成消息中还可以进一步指示辅小区的相关配置被释放。
其中“不执行其相应的辅服务小区的相关配置”根据UE在执行条件切换之前的配置有关,如果UE在执行条件切换之前不存在双连接配置,仅仅只有主服务小区的相关配置,那么UE不执行其相应的辅服务小区的相关配置;如果UE在执行条件切换之前存在有效的双连接配置,那么“UE不执行其相应的辅服务小区的相关配置”具体是指UE释放已有的辅服务小区相关的配置,以及优选的,不执行其接收到的、在条件切换指示中包含的辅服务小区的相关配置。
相应地,当目标基站接收到UE发送的重配置完成消息,且在消息中指示了辅小区的相关配置被释放,或者不成功,目标基站可以向目标辅基站发送辅基站释放请求(SENB RELEASE REQUEST)。
