为便于理解本申请实施例的技术方案,以下对本申请实施例相关的技术概念进行说明。
NR可以工作在非授权频段,包括如下几种工作场景:
1)载波聚合场景:主小区(Primary Cell,PCell)为授权频谱,通过载波聚合方式聚合工作在非授权频谱上的辅小区(Secondary Cell,SCell)。
2)双连接工作场景:PCell为LTE授权频谱,主辅小区(Primary Secondary cell,PScell)为NR非授权频谱。
3)独立工作场景:NR作为一个独立小区工作在非授权频谱。
一般来说,NR-U的工作频带(Band)为5GHz非授权频谱和6GHz非授权频谱;在非授权频谱上,NR-U的设计应该保证与其他已经工作在这些非授权频谱上的系统之间的公平性。公平性的原则是,NR-U对于已经部署在非授权频谱上的系统的影响不能超过这些系统之间的影响。
为了保证在非授权频谱上各系统之间的公平性共存,能量检测已经被同意作为一个基本的共存机制。一般的能量检测机制为LBT机制,该机制的基本原理为,基站或者终端(传输端)在非授权频谱上传输数据之前,需要先按照规定侦听一段时间。如果侦听的结果表示该信道为空闲状态,则传输端可以给接收端传输数据。如果侦听的结果表示该信道为占用状态,则传输端需要根据规定回退一段时间再继续侦听信道,知道信道侦听结果为空闲状态,才能向接收端传输数据。
对于下行数据传输,在非授权频段上,基站需要执行LBT;在LAA中,信道接入的优先级由如下表1决定:
Figure PCTCN2019080593-appb-000001
表1
其中,Mp与执行信道接入的侦听信道时间有关系。具体的,基站需要先执行Td时间的信道侦听,其中Td=16us+Mp×9us。
CWmin,p和CWmax,p与信道接入过程中的随机侦听信道时间有关系。具体的,在基站侦听Td时间信道为空闲时,需要再侦听N次信道,每次时长为9us。其中N为一个从0到CWp之间的随机数,而CW min,p≤CW p≤CW max,p
Tmcot,p为基站抢占到信道之后,占用信道的最长时间,它与基站采用的信道优先级有关系,比如优先级为1,则信道侦听成功之后,最多占用信道2ms。
综上,对于终端侧来讲,基站给终端传输数据需要在MCOT内,如果基站没有抢占到信道,在MCOT以外终端是不会收到基站给终端的调度数据的。
参照图2,图2为本申请实施例提供的切换(Handover,HO)流程图,该流程主要包括如下步骤:
1、源基站给终端下发测量配置。
2、终端基于测量配置进行相关测量,向源基站上报测量结果。
3、源基站基于测量结果做切换决定(Handove decision)。
4、源基站向目标基站发起切换请求(Handover Request)。
5、目标基站做准入控制(Admission Control)。
6、目标基站向源基站发送切换请求-确认反馈消息(Handover Request Ack)。
7、源基站向终端发送RRC连接重配置消息,该RRC连接重配置消息携带目标基站的移动性控制信息(mobilityControlInformation)。
这里,RRC连接重配置消息携带在切换命令中。
8、源基站向目标基站进行SN状态转发(SN Status Transfer)。
9、终端同步至目标基站。
10a、目标基站给终端进行周期的上行分配(Periodic UL allocation)。
10b、目标基站给终端配置上行分配和跟踪区(Tracking Area,TA)。
11、终端向目标基站发送RRC连接重配置完成消息。
12、目标基站向MME发起路径切换请求。
13、MME向服务网关(Serving Gateway)发起修改承载请求。
14、服务网关切换下行路径。
15、服务网关向MME发送修改承载响应消息。
16、MME向目标基站发送路径切换请求-确认反馈消息。
17、目标基站通知源基站释放终端上下文。
18、源基站释放资源。
上述图2中的切换过程主要包括如下流程:
-切换准备(图2中的步骤1-6):源基站配置终端进行测量上报,并基于终端的上报结果向目标基站发送切换请求。当目标基站同意换请求后,会为终端配置RRC消息,该RRC消息携带移动性控制信息(mobilityControlInformation),其中包括随机接入信道(Random Access Channel,RACH)资源、小区无线网络临时标识(Cell-Radio Network Temporary Identifier,C-RNTI)、目标基站安全算法以及目标基站的系统消息等。
-切换执行(图2中的步骤7-11):源基站通过切换命令转发mobilityControlInformation给终 端,终端收到切换命令后,向目标基站发起随机接入流程。同时源基站会向目标基站进行序列号状态转发(Serial Number STATUS TRANSFER,SN STATUS TRANSFER),告诉目标基站上行分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)SN接收状态以及下行PDCP SN发送状态。
-切换完成(图2中的步骤12-18):当终端成功接入目标基站后(即随机接入成功),目标基站会发起路径切换请求(PATH SWITCH REQUEST),请求移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)切换下行路径,路径切换完成后目标基站会指示源基站释放终端上下文,切换完成。
对于某些特殊场景,比如终端高速移动或者高频条件下,需要频繁的进行切换。基于条件的切换(conditional handover,conditional HO)避免了切换准备时间过长,导致终端要切换的时候已经过晚的问题,为终端提前配置了切换命令。另一方面,对于高铁场景,终端的运行轨迹是特定的,所以基站可以提前把目标基站配给终端,并且在切换命令中包含用于触发终端进行切换的条件(以下简称切换条件),当目标基站满足切换条件时,终端向该目标基站发起接入请求。
如图3所示,conditional handover主要包括如下流程:
1、终端与源基站之间进行测量配置/上报测量结果。
这里,源基站向终端下发测量配置,终端基于测量配置进行相关测量并向源基站上报测量结果。
2、源基站与目标基站之间进行切换准备流程。
3、源基站向终端下发切换命令,该切换命令携带多个目标基站的配置信息和切换条件。
4、目标基站满足切换条件时,终端同步至目标基站(即终端接入到目标基站)。
进一步,conditional handover场景下的切换命令中可以配置多个目标小区以及切换条件。终端基于所配置的切换条件判断接入哪个目标小区。
在第三代合作伙伴计划(3 rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)移动性增强课题中,提出了对于切换时减小中断时间的优化方法,包括以下两种架构:
1)基于双连接的切换(DC based HO)
在切换时,先把目标基站添加为辅节点(Secondary Node,SN),然后通过角色改变(role change)信令来把SN(目标基站)变为主节点(Master Node,MN),最后再把源基站释放掉,从而达到切换时候中断时间减小的效果。
2)基于eMBB的切换(eMBB based HO)
基于现有的切换流程,终端在收到切换命令时继续保持和源基站的连接,同时向目标基站发起随机接入,直到终端与目标基站接入完成才释放源基站的连接。
在NR-U中,由于目标基站执行LBT失败,导致NR-U小区不在MCOT内,终端无法直接执行随机接入过程或者切换过程。为此,本申请实施例给出了NR-U场景下的切换方法(特别是基于条件的切换方法),用以终端或者网络选择更合适的目标小区,减少切换过程中的切换时延。
图4为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图一,如图4所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤401:终端向源基站发送第一信息,所述第一信息用于指示所述源基站重新选择待切换的目标小区。
本申请实施例中,所述终端可以是手机、平板电脑、笔记本、车载终端、可穿戴式设备等任意能够与网络进行通信的设备。
本申请实施例中,源基站中的小区可以是NR-U小区、或NR小区、或LTE小区。
本申请实施例中,目标基站中的小区称为目标小区。
本申请实施例应用于切换过程,进一步,在一实施方式中,切换过程可以是DC based HO,在另一实施方式中,切换过程可以是eMBB based HO。
在一实施方式中,终端在满足第一条件的情况下,向源基站发送第一信息,源基站接收终端发送的第一信息,所述第一条件包括以下至少之一:目标基站执行LBT失败、终端执行切换的时间不在目标基站的MCOT内、在切换过程中。具体地,在切换过程中,若目标基站执行LBT失败和/或终端执行切换的时间不在目标基站的MCOT内,则终端向源基站发送第一信息。
需要说明的是,所述第一信息用于指示所述源基站重新选择待切换的目标小区,可以通过以下至少一种方式来实现:
1)所述第一信息包括重新选择待切换的目标小区的指示信息;
2)所述第一信息包括目标基站执行LBT失败的指示信息,该指示信息也可以指示源基站重新选择待切换的目标小区;
3)所述第一信息包括目标小区不在MCOT内的指示信息,该指示信息也可以指示源基站重新选择待切换的目标小区。
步骤402:所述源基站基于所述第一信息,重新选择待切换的目标小区和/或修改候选目标小区的优先级。
需要说明的是,本实施例的技术方案可以应用于HO过程,或conditional HO过程。其中,
1)HO过程的情况下,所述源基站向所述终端发送第一切换命令,所终端接收所述源基站发送的第一切换命令,所述第一切换命令包括一个目标小区的配置消息。
2)conditional HO过程的情况下,所述源基站向所述终端发送第二切换命令,所述终端接收所述源基站发送的第二切换命令,所述第二切换命令包括至少一个候选目标小区的配置消息以及切换条件。特别地,所述第二切换命令包括一个候选目标小区的配置消息以及切换条件。在此场景下,包含的候选目标小区可以包含NR-U小区,NR小区,LTE小区。
现有技术的缺点在于当前选择的目标小区为NR-U小区时,由于LBT失败,终端需要一直处于等待的状态,直至等到MCOT,这将造成切换时延甚至切换失败。本申请实施例的技术方案,终端可以在此情况下,及时将该情况通过第一信息上报给源基站(前提是终端和源基站存在连接),以辅助源基站基于该第一信息重新选择合适的目标小区尽快完成切换。
图5为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图二,如图5所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤501:源基站选择待切换的目标小区,向该目标小区所在的目标基站发送切换请求消息。
步骤502:目标基站进行切换判决(HO decision),确定该终端是否可以接入目标小区。
步骤503:若终端可以接入目标小区,目标基站向源基站发送切换请求确认消息。
步骤504:源基站向终端发送切换命令。
步骤505:终端根据切换命令执行切换过程。
步骤506:终端确定第一条件满足时,向源基站发送第一信息,所述第一信息用于指示以下至少之一:目标基站执行LBT失败、目标小区不在MCOT内、重新选择待切换的目标小区。
其中,所述第一条件包括以下至少之一:目标基站执行LBT失败、终端执行切换的时间不在目标基站的MCOT内、在切换过程中、正在执行切换/尝试切换。
经过上述步骤506之后,源基站根据第一信息重新选择待切换的目标小区或者修改候选目标小区的优先级。
图6为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图三,如图6所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤601:源基站向终端发送第二切换命令,终端接收源基站发送的第二切换命令,所述第二切换命令用于所述终端基于切换条件从多个候选目标小区中选择出待切换的目标小区;其中,所述第二切换命令携带第一信息,所述第一信息用于指示所述多个候选目标小区分别对应的优先级信息。
本申请实施例中,所述第一信息用于指示所述多个候选目标小区分别对应的优先级信息,可以通过以下至少一种方式来实现:
1)所述第一信息包括优先级信息;
2)所述第一信息包括小区类型信息,所述小区类型信息用于指示优先级信息。
本申请实例中,小区类型信息可以按照小区所在频谱的类型来划分,具体地,对于授权频谱上的小区可以作为第一类候选目标小区,对于非授权频谱上的小区可以作为第二类候选目标小区。
当然,小区类型信息还可以按照其他方式来划分,例如按照小区标识来划分,按照小区优先级来划分等等。
本申请实例中,所述多个候选目标小区中包含第一类候选目标小区和/或第二类候选目标小区。其中,第一类候选目标小区的优先级不同于所述第二类候选目标小区的优先级,所述第一类候选目标小区是指授权频谱上的小区,所述第二类候选目标小区是指非授权频谱上的小区。
本申请实施例中,所述终端选择待切换的目标小区。这里,所述终端可以按照小区的优先级来选择待切换的目标小区。具体地,终端接收源基站发送的第二切换命令后,所述终端执行以下行为至少之一:基于优先级排序所述多个候选目标小区、基于优先级确定切换条件判断的先后顺序、在多个候选目标小区满足切换条件的情况下对满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区进行优先级排序、在满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区中按照优先级顺序选择待切换的目标小区。
在一实施方式中,可以基于小区的类型确定小区的优先级或选择待切换的目标小区,如授权频谱上的小区的优先级高于非授权频谱上的小区的优先级。基于此,终端也可以基于小区类型排序所述多个候选目标小区。终端也可以基于小区类型确定切换条件判断的先后顺序。终端也可以基于小区类型在满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区中确定小区的优先级或选择待切换的目标小区。
需要说明的是,基于优先级确定切换条件判断的先后顺序是指:基于优先级排序候选目标小区后进行切换条件的判断。举个例子:第二切换命令包括2个候选目标小区,分别为cell1和cell2,其中,cell1的优先级高于cell2的优先级,那么,先判断cell1是否满足切换条件,后判断cell2是否满足切换条件。
需要说明的是,在多个候选目标小区满足切换条件的情况下对满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区进行优先级排序,在满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区中按照优先级顺序选择待切换的目标小区指:在多个候选目标小区满足切换条件的情况下对满足切换条件的候选目标小区进行排序,从排序好的候选目标小区中选择待切换的目标小区。举个例子:第二切换命令包括2个候选目标小区,分别为cell1和cell2,其中,cell1的优先级高于cell2的优先级,若两个候选目标小区的切换条件均满足那么,则认为cell1为待切换的目标小区。
在本申请的一种实施方式中,所述多个候选目标小区中的第一类候选目标小区的优先级高于第二类候选目标小区的优先级。基于此,所述终端执行以下行为至少之一:在所述多个候选目标小区中优先选择第一类候选目标小区执行切换、优先选择第一类候选目标小区执行切换条件判断、在多个候选目标小区满足切换条件的情况下优先选择满足切换条件的第一类候选目标小区执行切换、在多个候选目标小区满足切换条件的情况下在满足切换条件的多个候选目标小区中优先选择第一类候选目标小区执行切换。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于conditional HO过程,在conditional HO过程中,若候选目标小区中包含NR-U小区,那么,NR小区的优先级不同于(如高于)NR-U小区的优先级。
本申请实施例中,所述第二切换命令还包括所述多个候选目标小区分别对应的小区类型信息和/或优先级信息。如此,终端可以根据候选目标小区对应的小区类型信息和/或优先级信息,来确定该候选目标小区的优先级。举个例子:cell1的小区类型信息为NR-U小区,cell2的小区类型信息为NR小区,那么,终端根据小区类型信息可以判断出cell1的优先级低于cell2的优先级。另举个例子:cell1的小区类型信息为NR-U小区且优先级指示为1,cell2的小区类型信息为NR小区且优先级指示为2,那么,终端根据小区类型信息和优先级可以判断出cell1的优先级低于cell2的优先级。
需要说明的是,较高优先级的小区在进行切换时被所述终端或基站优先选择/使用。
需要说明的是,较高优先级的小区在进行小区选择/重选时被优先选择/使用。
本申请实施例中,如果满足所述切换条件的全部候选目标小区均为第二类候选目标小区,则所述终端基于候选目标小区的优先级信息和/或信道质量,从满足所述切换条件的全部候选目标小区中选择待切换的目标小区。
本申请实施例的技术方案,终端利用候选目标小区的优先级选择具有高优先级的NR小区作为待切换的目标小区,从而避免了目标小区是NR-U小区的情况下,由于LBT失败导致的切换时延。
图7为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图四,如图7所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤701:源基站选择待切换的目标小区,向该目标小区所在的目标基站发送切换请求消息。
步骤702:目标基站进行切换判决(HO decision),确定该终端是否可以接入目标小区。
步骤703:若终端可以接入目标小区,目标基站向源基站发送切换请求确认消息。
步骤704:源基站向终端发送切换命令,该切换命令携带多个候选目标小区的配置消息和切换条件。
进一步,所述切换命令还携带多个候选目标小区分别对应的小区类型信息和/或优先级。
这里,小区类型信息可以是NR小区、或LTE小区、或NR-U小区等等。
这里,优先级是指用于小区切换/选择/重选的选择优先级或使用优先级。
步骤705:终端根据切换条件和候选目标小区的优先级,执行切换过程。
举个例子:终端首先确定满足切换条件的候选目标小区;然后,在满足切换条件的候选目标小区中,选择优先级最高的候选目标小区作为待切换的目标小区。进一步,若满足切换条件的候选目标小区均为NR-U小区,则终端按照候选目标小区的优先级和/或信道质量选择待切换的目标小区。
举个例子:终端按照优先级对候选目标小区进行排序;然后按照优先级排序的顺序,从高到底 判断小区是否满足切换条件;若当前小区满足切换条件,则在该小区为待切换的目标小区,在该小区执行或尝试执行切换过程,若当前小区不满足切换条件,则按照轮询的方式继续尝试或周期性继续尝试,直至找到待切换的目标小区。进一步,若满足切换条件的候选目标小区均为NR-U小区,则终端按照候选目标小区的优先级和/或信道质量选择待切换的目标小区。
可选的,终端也可以按照预定义的规则优先使用NR-U小区或者NR小区作为待切换的目标小区。
图8为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图五,如图8所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤801:终端重新选择待切换的目标小区。
进一步,终端在满足第二条件的情况下,重新选择待切换的目标小区。其中,所述第二条件包括以下至少之一:当前选择的目标小区为第二类候选目标小区,所述第二类候选目标小区是指非授权频谱上的小区;目标基站执行LBT失败;目标小区不在MCOT内;其他候选目标小区满足切换条件,所述其他候选目标小区是指当前选择的目标小区以外的候选目标小区;其他候选目标小区满足切换条件,所述其他候选目标小区是指当前选择的目标小区以外的第一类候选目标小区;存在特定第一类候选目标小区,所述特定指以下中的至少之一:未满足切换条件,未判断过切换条件,未执行切换尝试;存在特定第二类候选目标小区,所述特定指以下中的至少之一:未满足切换条件,未判断过切换条件,未执行切换尝试;存在特定候选目标小区,所述特定指以下中的至少之一:未满足切换条件,未判断过切换条件,未执行切换尝试。
本申请实施例中,在满足第二条件时,终端在当前选择的目标小区上不执行切换过程,或者不继续执行切换过程,而是重新选择待切换的目标小区。
这里,终端重新选择待切换的目标小区时,可以基于候选目标小区的信道质量和/或优先级,从满足所述切换条件的其他候选目标小区中选择待切换的目标小区。
在一实施方式中,终端在当前选择的目标小区上开始执行切换过程时,如果第二条件满足,则终端在当前选择的目标小区上不执行切换过程。
在另一实施方式中,终端在当前选择的目标小区上开始执行切换过程时,第二条件不满足;终端在当前选择的目标小区上执行切换过程中,如果第二条件满足,则终端在当前选择的目标小区上不继续执行切换过程。
本申请实施例的技术方案,终端在满足第二条件时重新选择待切换的目标小区,从而避免了目标小区是NR-U小区的情况下,由于LBT失败导致的切换时延。
图9为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图六,如图9所示,所述切换方法包括以下步骤:
步骤901:源基站选择待切换的目标小区,向该目标小区所在的目标基站发送切换请求消息。
步骤902:目标基站进行切换判决(HO decision),确定该终端是否可以接入目标小区。
步骤903:若终端可以接入目标小区,目标基站向源基站发送切换请求确认消息。
步骤904:源基站向终端发送切换命令,该切换命令携带多个候选目标小区的配置消息和切换条件。
进一步,所述切换命令还携带多个候选目标小区分别对应的小区类型信息和/或优先级。
这里,小区类型信息可以是NR小区、或LTE小区、或NR-U小区等等。
这里,优先级是指用于小区选择/重选的选择优先级或使用优先级。
步骤905:终端根据切换命令执行切换过程。在满足第二条件时,终端在当前选择的目标切换小区上不执行或不继续执行切换过程,而是重新选择待切换的目标小区。
所述第二条件包括以下至少之一:当前选择的目标小区为NR-U小区、基站执行LBT失败、目标小区不在MCOT内、其他候选目标小区满足切换条件。
进一步,终端可以选择其他候选目标小区中信道质量最好的小区作为待切换的目标小区。
