本申请实施例中,用于实现终端的功能的装置可以是终端;也可以是能够支持终端实现该功能的装置,例如芯片系统,该装置可以被安装在终端中。本申请实施例中,芯片系统可以由芯片构成,也可以包括芯片和其他分立器件。本申请实施例提供的技术方案中,以用于实现终端的功能的装置是终端,以终端是UE为例,描述本申请实施例提供的技术方案。
二、网络设备
网络设备可以是接入网设备,接入网设备也可以称为无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)设备,是一种为终端设备提供无线通信功能的设备。接入网设备例如包括但不限于: 5G中的下一代基站(generation nodeB,gNB)、演进型节点B(evolved node B,eNB)、无线网络控制器(radio network controller,RNC)、节点B(node B,NB)、基站控制器(base station controller,BSC)、基站收发台(base transceiver station,BTS)、家庭基站(例如,home evolved nodeB,或home node B,HNB)、基带单元(baseband unit,BBU)、收发点(transmitting and receiving point,TRP)、发射点(transmitting point,TP)、移动交换中心等。接入网设备还可以是云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器、集中单元(centralized unit,CU),和/或分布单元(distributed unit,DU),或者网络设备可以为中继站、接入点、车载设备、终端设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的网络设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备等。终端设备可以与不同技术的多个接入网设备进行通信,例如,终端设备可以与支持长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)的接入网设备通信,也可以与支持5G的接入网设备通信,还可以与支持LTE的接入网设备以及支持5G的接入网设备的双连接。本申请实施例并不限定。

三、物联网(internet of things,IoT)
物联网是物物相连的互联网,它将物联网中的用户端扩展到任何物品与物品之间进行信息交换和通信。物联网也可称为机器间通信(machine type communications,MTC),通信的节点也可称为MTC终端。
典型的物联网应用包括智能电网、智能农业、智能交通、智能家居以及环境检测等各个方面。由于物联网需要应用于多种场景中,比如室外、室外、地上和地下等,因此对物联网的设计提出了许了特殊的要求:
覆盖增强:许多的MTC应用在覆盖较差的环境下,比如电表水表等通常安装在室内甚至地下室等无线网络信号很差的地方,这个时候需要覆盖增强的技术来解决。
支持大量低速率设备:MTC设备的数量要远远大于人与人通信的设备数量,但是传输的数据包很小,并且对延时并不敏感。
非常低的成本:许多MTC应用要求能够以非常低的成本获得并使用MTC设备,从而能够大规模部署。
低能量消耗:在大多数情况下,MTC设备是通过电池来供电的。但是同时在很多场景下,MTC又要求能够使用十年以上而不需要更换电池。这就要求MTC设备能够以极低的电力消耗来工作。
四、覆盖增强
由于物联网系统需要支持很大的覆盖范围,对于不同通信环境下的终端设备,网络设备的调度策略将完全不同。比如,处于小区中心位置的终端设备,无线信道条件较好,网络设备使用较小的功率,即可建立可靠的通信链路,并且可以使用大的传输码块、高阶调制和载波绑定等技术快速的进行数据传输。而对于小区边缘或位于地下室的终端设备,无线信道条件较差,网络设备需要使用的较大的功率,才可建立可靠的通信链路,并且需要使用小的传输码块、低阶调制、多次重复发送和扩频等技术才能完成数据传输。
为了保证通信的可靠性,节省网络的发送功率,需要对不同信道条件的终端设备进行 区分,以便于网络设备进行调度。基于上述引入了覆盖增强等级的概念。其中,处于同一覆盖增强等级的终端设备的信道传输条件相似,网络设备对同一覆盖增强等级的终端设备可以采用相似的调度参数,它们占用的控制信令开销也相似。
目前,在窄带物联网(narrow band internet of things,NB-IoT)系统中,只针对窄带物理随机接入(narrowband physical random access channel,NPRACH)引入覆盖增强等级的概念。在增强型机器类通信(enhanced machine type communication,eMTC)系统,或者长期演进机器类通信(long term evolution machine type communication,LTE-M或者LTE-MTC)系统中,只针对物理随机接入(physical random access channel,PRACH)引入覆盖增强等级的概念。所述覆盖增强等级,也可称为覆盖等级或者增强覆盖等级或者重复等级或者重复次数。在本申请实施例中,以覆盖增强等级为例进行说明。每一个随机接入资源会映射到一个覆盖增强等级,覆盖增强等级是从0开始编号的。对于NB-IoT系统,随机接入资源和覆盖增强等级的映射随着NPRACH的重复次数递增,NPRACH的重复次数通过网络设备配置。对于eMTC或者LTE-M或者LTE-MTC系统,随机接入资源和覆盖增强等级的映射随着PRACH的重复次数递增,PRACH的重复次数通过网络设备配置。比如,NB-IoT系统中,如果有3个覆盖增强等级,分别为覆盖增强等级0,覆盖增强等级1和覆盖增强等级2。则覆盖增强等级0关联的随机接入资源中NPRACH重复次数<覆盖增强等级1关联的随机接入资源中NPRACH重复次数<覆盖增强等级2关联的随机接入资源中NPRACH重复次数。LTE-M或者LTE-MTC系统中,如果有4个覆盖增强等级,分别为覆盖增强等级0,覆盖增强等级1,覆盖增强等级2和覆盖增强等级3。则覆盖增强等级0关联的随机接入资源中PRACH重复次数<覆盖增强等级1关联的随机接入资源中PRACH重复次数<覆盖增强等级2关联的随机接入资源中PRACH重复次数<覆盖增强等级3关联的随机接入资源中PRACH重复次数。其中符号”<”表示小于。
需要指出的是,本申请中涉及的名词“传输”可以包括数据的发送和/或接收,和/或控制信息的发送和/或接收。“第一”、“第二”等词汇,仅用于区分描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性,也不能理解为指示或暗示顺序。

或者,所述第一随机接入资源可包括第一子载波,第一配置信息中可包括第四指示信息和第五指示信息。
其中,所述第四指示信息用于联合指示第一子载波的索引和第一随机接入前导码的格式。第五指示信息用于指示第一载波的索引。
通过上述记载可知,对于前导码格式0/1,子载波带宽为3.75kHz,在一个载波内,最多有48个子载波。对于前导码格式2,子载波带宽为1.25kHz,在一个载波内,最多有144个子载波。在本申请实施例中,可将前导码格式与子载波索引联系指示。比如,在表1中,第四指示信息指示的数值为I sc,当I sc的取值为0至47时,可指示前导码格式0/1,以及子载波索引,子载波索引的取值为I sc,即子载波索引的取值可以为0至47中一个值。当I sc的取值为48至191时,可指示前导码格式2,以及子载波索引,子载波索引的取值为I sc-48,即子载波索引的取值可以为48至191中的一个值。

针对上述实施例一,上述S204的一种具体实现可为:终端设备确定第一重复次数,第一重复次数为第二覆盖增强等级对应的重复次数;终端设备根据第一随机接入前导码格式,在第一载波中的第一子载波上,向网络设备重复发送第一随机接入前导码,发送第一随机接入前导码的次数为第一重复次数。
示例的,在本申请实施例中,如图4所示,在第一消息配置的载波配置信息列表中包括6个载波,所述6个载波的索引依次为0至5。第一配置信息所指示的载波索引为2,该载波上配置了3个覆盖增强等级的随机接入资源。3个覆盖增强等级,分别为覆盖增强等级0、覆盖增强等级1以及覆盖增强等级2。设定终端设备确定的覆盖增强等级为覆盖增强等级0,第一配置信息所指示的子载波索引为0,那么终端设备发送第一随机接入前导码的过程可参见图4中的记载。可以解理的是,在图4所示的示例中,是以第一随机接入前导码包括4个符号组为示例进行说明的。
在本申请实施例中,以NB-IoT系统为例,设定第一消息配置的载波配置信息列表中包括多个载波。第一配置信息所指示的载波的索引为2,且该载波上配置了3个覆盖增强等级的随机接入资源,随机接入前导码的格式为格式0/1。具体的,3个覆盖增强等级的随机接入资源可包括:
覆盖增强等级0对应的重复次数为0,频域上占用12个子载波,12个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为0至11;
覆盖增强等级1对应的重复次数为8,频域上占用12个子载波,12个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为12至23;
覆盖增强等级2对应的重复次数为32,频域上占用24个子载波,24个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为24至47。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备可指示载波2,子载波36,通过上述可以看出,子载波36所对应的覆盖增强等级为覆盖增强等级2。那么覆盖增强等级2所对应的随机接入资源即可为上述图2所示流程中的第一随机接入资源。即图2所示流程中的第一随机接入资源可为:频域上占用24个子载波,24个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为24至47。覆盖增强等级2对应于上述图2流程中的第一覆盖增强等级。
终端设备可采用以下方式,确定上述图2所示流程中的第二覆盖增强级,且确定第二覆盖增强等级后,可按照以下方式,发送随机接入前导码:
如果终端设备测量的NRSRP小于覆盖增强等级2对应的NRSRP门限值,则终端设备确定自己的覆盖增强等级为2,即上述图2所示流程中的第二覆盖增强等级为覆盖增强等级2。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为覆盖增强等级2对应的重复次数,即32次。终端设备按照重复次数32,在网络设备指示的载波2和子载波36上发送随机接入前导码。
如果终端设备测量的NRSRP小于覆盖增强等级1对应的NRSRP门限,则终端设备确定自己的覆盖增强等级为1。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为覆盖增强等级1对应的重复次数,即8次。终端设备按照重复次数8,在网络设备指示的载波2和子载波36上发送随机接入前导码。需要说明的是,即使终端设备确定自己的覆盖增强等级为1,发送前导 码时仍需使用覆盖增强等级2所使用的一些随机接入参数,以避免与正在采用覆盖增强等级2的随机接入资源发送随机接入前导码冲突。比如,某些时域参数、周期和起始时间等。某些参数可使用覆盖增强等级0对应的随机接入参数,例如每个随机接入资源的最大尝试次数和功率控制参数等。
如果终端设备测量的RSRP不小于覆盖增强等级1对应的RSRP门限,则终端设备确定自己的覆盖增强等级为0。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为覆盖增强等级0对应的重复次数,即2次。终端设备按照重复次数2,在网络设备指示的载波2和子载波36上发送随机接入前导码。需要说明的是,即使终端设备确定自己的覆盖增强等级为0,发送前导码时仍需要使用覆盖增强等级2对应的某些随机接入参数,以避免与正在采用覆盖增强等级2的随机接入资源发送随机接入前导码冲突。例如,时域参数,周期和起始时间等。某些参数可使用覆盖增强等级0对应的随机接入参数,例如每个随机接入资源的最大尝试次数和功率控制参数等。
本实施例中网络设备通过第一配置信息指示的第一随机接入资源可以是免竞争的随机接入资源。
实施例二
上述图2所示的方法,可应用于eMTC或LTE-M或者LTE-MTC系统中,第一随机接入资源中包括前导码序列,第一配置信息中可包括第六指示信息、第七指示信息和第八指示信息。第六指示信息用于指示第一随机接入前导码的前导码索引,所述前导码索引用于确定第一随机接入前导码的前导码序列。第七指示信息用于指示第一随机接入前导码的掩码索引,掩码索引用于确定第一随机接入前导码的时域资源。第八指示信息用于指示第一随机接入前导码所在的资源块分配信息,资源块分配信息用于确定第一随机接入前导码的频域资源。
针对上述实施例一,上述S204的一种具体实现可为:终端设备确定第二重复次数,第二重复次数第二覆盖增强等级所对应的重复次数。终端设备在确定的第一随机接入前导码的时域资源和频域资源上,向网络设备重复发送第一随机接入前导码,发送所述第一随机接入前导码的重复次数为第二重复次数,第一随机接入前导码使用的序列为前导码序列。
示例的,在本申请实施例中,如图5所示,针对eMTC或LTE-M或者LTE-MTC系统,可配置4个覆盖增强等级,编号分别为覆盖增强等级0至覆盖增强等级3。在图5所示的覆盖增强等级中,横向矩形柜的长度越长,代表传输时间越长,即所需的重复次数越大。矩形柜的宽度为6个RB,即6*180kHz。前导码的格式可为格式0/1/2/3,随机接入前导码实现占用839个子载波,每个子载波的带宽为1.25kHz,随机接入前导码所承载的序列可为ZC序列,所述随机接入前导码可其包括64个序列。
由上可见,在本申请实施例中,终端设备根据测量确定覆盖增强等级,终端设备根据自己所测量的覆盖增强等级,确定重复次数。在网络设备无法获取终端设备覆盖条件的场景下,与网络设备盲目指示覆盖增强等级的方案相比,采用本申请的方法,可以避免因为指示不合适的覆盖增强等级导致的上行干扰问题,同时可以保证随机接入前导码的性能。进一步的,在本申请实施例中,网络设备不指示覆盖增强等级信息,可节省信令开销。再进一步的,网络设备分配较高的覆盖增强等级的随机接入资源,不需要每个覆盖增强等级都给终端设备预留一个随机接入资源,可以减少资源预留,减少对随机接入资源容量的影 响。
本实施例中网络设备通过第一配置信息指示的第一随机接入资源可以是免竞争的随机接入资源。
实施例三
本申请实施例中提供一种通信方法,该通信方法可实现终端设备的随机接入。在NB-IoT系统中,终端设备的随机接入包括基于竞争(contention based)的随机接入和免竞争(contention free)的随机接入。本申请实施例中的方法,可应用于基于竞争的随机接入,也可应用于基于免竞争的随机接入。在下述示例中,以应用于免竞争的随机接入为例进行说明,并不作为对本申请的限定。本申请提供一种随机接入方法,具体如下:
一、网络设备向终端设备发送第一消息。其中,第一消息用于配置多个随机接入资源,每个随机接入资源映射到一个覆盖增强等级。关于第一消息具体可参见上述图2所示流程中的介绍,在此不再说明。
二、网络设备向终端设备发送第一配置信息,所述第一配置信息用于确定第一随机接入资源。关于第一配置信息可参见上述实施例中的介绍,在此不再说明。
三、终端设备确定第三覆盖增强等级。终端设备确定第三覆盖增强等级的方法,与上述实施例中,终端设备确定第二覆盖增强等级的方法相似,在此不再说明。
四、终端设备根据第一配置信息,确定第三覆盖增强等级下的随机接入资源。
示例的,设定第一配置信息中所指示的子载波索引为第一子载波索引,那么终端设备所确定的第三覆盖增强等级下的随机接入资源所在的子载波索引可为:第一子载波索引+NumCBRA-StartSubcarriers+nprach-SubcarrierOffset。其中,NumCBRA-StartSubcarriers表示的是分配给基于竞争的随机接入的子载波个数。nprach-SubcarrierOffset表示分配给NPRACH的频域资源的第一个子载波的频域位置。其中NumCBRA-StartSubcarriers和nprach-SubcarrierOffset为第三覆盖增强等级下对应的配置参数。
五、终端设备根据第三覆盖增强等级对应的重复次数,在确定的随机接入资源上向网络设备发送随机接入前导码。
比如,在本申请实施例中,以第一配置信息所指示的载波的索引为4,该载波上配置3个覆盖增强等级的随机接入资源,随机接入前导码的格式为格式0/1为例:
覆盖增强等级0对应的重复次数为2,频域上占用12个子载波,12个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为0~11,其中用于基于竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为0~7,用于免竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为8~11;
覆盖增强等级1对应的重复次数为8,频域上占用12个子载波,12个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为12~23,其中用于基于竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为12~19,用于免竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为20~23;
覆盖增强等级2对应的重复次数为32,频域上占用24个子载波,24个子载波按照由低频到高频的顺序依次编号为24~47,其中用于基于竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为24~43,用于免竞争的随机接入的子载波索引为44~47。
示例的,终端设备可测量RSRP,基于测量的RSRP结果,确定第三覆盖增强等级。
在本申请实施例中,以网络设备在第一配置信息指示载波4,免竞争资源中的子载波为1为例进行说明,可以理解的是,免竞争中的子载波为1表示载波4中各个覆盖增强等 级下对应的免竞争资源中的第2个子载波。终端设备根据第一配置信息,确定第三覆盖增强等级下的随机接入资源。具体示例如下:
如果终端设备测量的RSRP值小于覆盖增强等级2对应的RSRP门限值,则终端设备确定覆盖增强等级为2。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为覆盖增强等级2对应的重复次数,即32次。网络设备在第一配置信息指示的免竞争资源中的子载波为1,终端设备根据第一配置信息确定子载波为覆盖增强等级2对应的免竞争随机接入的子载波44-47中的第2个子载波,即子载波45。终端设备可按照重复次数32在网络设备指示的载波4,子载波45上发送随机接入前导码。
如果终端设备测量的RSRP值小于增强覆盖增强等级1对应的RSRP门限值,则终端设备确定自己的增强覆盖增强等级为1。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为增强覆盖增强等级1对应的重复次数,即8次。网络设备在第一配置信息指示的免竞争资源中的子载波为1,终端设备根据第一配置信息确定子载波为覆盖增强等级1对应的用于免竞争随机接入的子载波20~23中的第2个子载波,即子载波21,则终端设备按照重复次数8在网络设备指示的载波4,子载波21上发送随机接入前导码。
如果终端设备测量的RSRP值不小于增强覆盖增强等级1对应的RSRP门限,则终端设备确定自己的增强覆盖增强等级为0。终端设备确定NPRACH重复次数为增强覆盖增强等级0对应的重复次数,即2次。网络设备在第一配置信息指示的免竞争资源中的子载波为0,终端设备根据第一配置信息确定子载波为覆盖增强等级0对应的用于免竞争随机接入的子载波8~11中的第2个子载波,即子载波9,则终端设备按照重复次数2在网络设备指示的载波4,子载波9上发送随机接入前导码。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备根据测量确定覆盖增强等级,相对于,与网络设备盲目指示覆盖增强等级的情况相比,采用本申请的方法,可以避免因为指示不合适的覆盖增强等级导致的上行干扰问题,同时可以保证随机接入前导码的性能。同时,网络设备不指示覆盖增强等级,可以节省信令开销。
