Description

连接建立方法及装置、链路状态的通知方法及装置、接口建立方法及装置、信息传输方法及装置、集合接入回传节点、集中单元、系统、存储介质
本申请要求在2019年08月15日提交中国专利局、申请号为201910768209.5的中国专利申请的优先权,该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,例如涉及一种连接建立方法及装置、链路状态的通知方法及装置、接口建立方法及装置、信息传输方法及装置、集合接入回传节点、集中单元、系统、存储介质。
背景技术
集合接入回传(IAB,Integrated Access and Backhaul)是第五代移动通信技术(5G,5th Generation)中的重要技术。其目标是使一个或多个IAB节点利用位于本地的移动终端(MT,Mobile Terminal)功能部分通过新空口(NR,New Radio)连接到母节点,并在此基础上形成多跳的无线自回传网络。每个IAB节点包含一个分布单元(DU,Distributed Unit)功能部分和一个MT功能部分。其中,DU用于服务本节点的用户设备(UE,User Equipment)和下一跳节点的MT,并和其建立无线链路层控制(RLC,Radio Link Control)连接;MT的功能相当于一个UE,用于通过NR的Un接口接入上一跳的母节点,并和其建立RLC连接。所以,不同的IAB节点可以利用本地MT的无线接入能力接入到上一跳的母节点,该母节点又可以再连接到上一跳节点,直至最终连接到宿主基站(donor next generation NodeB,donor gNB)。donor gNB包括一个宿主CU(donor Centralized Unit,donor CU)和多个宿主DU(donor DU),各个donor DU分别以有线方式连接到donor CU。donor CU和donor DU,以及donor CU和各个IAB节点的DU之间通过增强的F1接口进行连接。当IAB节点更换母节点时,我们称之为IAB发生了迁移。当一个IAB节点切换到新的donor CU上时,连接到该IAB节点下的子IAB节点无法保持服务的连续性。

以下参照附图,举具体的实施例进行介绍。
实施例一:
在本实施例中,IAB-node3是IAB-node1的一个子节点。当IAB-node1发生切换后,源donor CU需要向目标donor CU发送IAB-node1的上下文信息。
如图6为本申请实施例一的实现流程示意图,包括:
步骤S61:源donor CU向目标donor CU发送切换请求消息,所述切换请求消息携带迁移的IAB-node1的信息。
在本实施例中,IAB-node1的信息可以包括:IAB-node1的标识信息、IAB-node1的回传信道(backhaul channel)的上下文信息、IAB-node1服务的UE的上下文信息、以及IAB-node1的下行IAB节点(例如IAB-node 3)的上下文信息中的至少一项。
步骤S62:目标donor CU向源donor CU发送切换响应消息,所述切换响应消息携带目标donor CU的地址信息及IAB DU的标识中的至少一项。
所述IAB DU的标识包括以下至少之一:迁移节点(例如IAB-node1)的 DU标识,迁移节点的下行节点(例如IAB-node3)的DU标识。
实施例二:
当IAB-node1发生切换后,本实施例解决IAB-node1如何得到目标donor CU的IP地址的问题,以及,如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,其下行IAB节点(downstream IAB-node)如何得到目标donor CU的IP地址的问题。
在本实施例中,IAB-node3是IAB-node1的一个子节点。对于下行IAB节点(即IAB-node 3),虽然其父IAB节点(parent IAB-node)、即IAB-node 1没有发生变化,但donor CU发生了变化。因此,需要将donor CU已经发生变化这一情况通知IAB-node 3。并且,为了建立新的F1连接,IAB-node3需要得到目标donor CU的IP地址,这是由于gNB-DU在向gNB-DU发送F1接口建立请求消息(F1Setup Request message)之前需要建立gNB-DU的传输网络层(TNL,Transport Network Layer)连接,而建立TNL连接需要获取IP地址。本实施例提出以下几种下行IAB节点得到目标donor CU的IP地址的方式:
方式1:
每个IAB节点(包括迁移的IAB节点及它的下行IAB节点)可以预先配置一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表、或者通过网络侧下载一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表、或者通过OAM配置一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表,这样,IAB节点只需要获得目标donor CU的gNB Id(即目标donor CU的CU Id)即可查找上述映射表,从而得到目标donor CU的IP地址。该IP地址可以为传输层地址(Transport Layer Address)。IAB节点可以获得目标donor CU的新空口小区全球标识(NCGI,NR Cell Global Identifier),并根据NCGI得到目标donor CU的CU Id。
对于迁移的IAB节点来说,在MT的切换过程可以获得目标donor CU的CU Id。
如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,对于下行IAB节点,获得目标donor CU的CU Id至少可以有以下两种方式:第一种,由迁移的IAB节点在完成切换后直接通过adapter layer消息告知下层IAB节点,下层IAB节点再继续告知它的下层IAB节点。所述adapter layer消息包括以下至少一项:所述目标的标识信息,小区标识,CU变更标识,所述第一CU的IP地址,链路迁移成功指示等。
第二种,在迁移的IAB节点切换完成后,目标donor CU通过RRC信令(例如RRC重配消息)通知IAB-node3发生了DU不改变CU改变的迁移。例如, 在RRC重配消息中携带小区标识(CellIdentity)和物理小区标识(PhysCellId),采用CellIdentity指示目标donor CU的CU Id(例如目标小区gNB id)。由于donor CU发生改变,那么CellIdentity也会发生改变;但是由于DU没有改变,因此PhysCellId可以不改变。RRC重配消息消息中除了携带上述标识之外,还可能包含其他信息。
基于上述信息,IAB MT或者UE可以判断发生了CU改变但是DU不变的切换,不需要重新执行小区接入过程,但后续需要接收配置信息的更新。然后,下行IAB节点(如本实施例中的IAB-node3)可以查找上述映射表,获知目标donor CU的IP地址,与目标donor CU建立TNL连接,然后向目标donor CU发起F1连接建立流程。
方式2:源donor CU将目标donor CU的IP地址发送至下行IAB节点。这个步骤应在源donor CU向迁移的IAB节点发送切换命令之前执行。
方式2可以有以下两种形式:
方式2a:源donor CU将目标donor CU的IP地址通过F1接口发送至下行IAB节点的DU部分。
方式2b:源donor CU将目标donor CU的IP地址通过RRC消息发送至下行IAB节点的MT部分。
方式2的情况下,源donor CU需要获取目标donor CU的IP地址,可以通过下列方式获取目标donor CU的IP地址:在切换准备过程中获取目标donor CU的IP地址;或者预先配置一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表;或者通过网络侧下载一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表;或者通过OAM配置一个CU Id到CU IP地址的映射表。
对于迁移的IAB节点,对于方式2b,源donor CU向IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node1)的MT发送RRC重配消息,RRC重配消息中可以包含目标donor CU的IP地址及其他信息,例如CellIdentity和PhysCellId。对于方式2a,源donor CU向IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node1)的DU发送F1消息,F1消息中可以包含目标donor CU的IP地址,用于指示下行IAB节点的DU释放与源donor CU的F1连接、并建立与目标donor CU的F1连接。
如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,之后,源donor CU决定哪些下行IAB节点需要切换至目标donor CU。对于方式2b,源donor CU向下行IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node3)的MT发送RRC重配消息,RRC重配消息中可以包含目标donor CU的IP地址及其他信息,例如CellIdentity和PhysCellId。对于方式2a,源donor CU向下行IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node3) 的DU发送F1消息,F1消息中可以包含目标donor CU的IP地址,用于指示下行IAB节点的DU释放与源donor CU的F1连接、并建立与目标donor CU的F1连接。
由于是在迁移的IAB节点切换之前发送的上述信息,并且迁移的IAB节点存在切换失败的可能,因此接收到上述信息的下行IAB节点不能立即发起新的F1连接建立过程。鉴于此,当下行IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node3)接收到上述信息后,并不立即发起F1连接建立过程,而是等待父IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node1)切换成功之后再释放与源donor CU的F1连接、并建立与目标donor CU的F1连接。那么,在迁移的IAB节点完成切换后,需要发送一个指示信息给IAB-node3,IAB-node3在接收到该指示信息后则开始执行不更改DU只更改CU的切换流程,建立新的F1连接。
对于迁移的IAB节点来说,直接在RRC重配消息中携带目标donor CU的IP地址是比较简单的方式。
在一种实施方式中,上述F1连接可以指F1接入协议(AP,Application Protocol)连接。
方式3:目标donor CU将自身的IP地址通过RRC消息发送至下行IAB节点的MT部分。
对于迁移的IAB来说,当IAB的MT部分与目标donor CU建立RRC连接后,目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将IP地址发送给IAB的MT,然后IAB的MT告知DU部分,从而获得目标donor CU的IP地址。
如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,对于迁移的IAB节点的下行IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node3)来说,在迁移的IAB节点的DU部分被激活之后,目标donor CU可以向其子IAB节点(本实施例中如IAB-node3)发送RRC重配消息,RRC重配消息中携带目标donor CU的IP地址。接收到该RRC重配消息,子IAB节点即可确定donor CU已经改变,因此发起与目标donor CU的F1连接建立过程。这里的F1连接可以为F1-C连接。当IAB-node 3与目标donor CU的F1连接建立完成之后,目标donor CU可以继续通过RRC消息将IP地址通知IAB-node 3的子IAB节点,以此类推。
实施例三:
如果需要跟随迁移的IAB节点一起切换的是UE,虽然不更新服务DU,但是由于更换了CU,小区id以及一些配置信息是有必要通知UE的。那么,在迁移的IAB节点的DU功能激活后,donor CU可以发送RRC重配消息通知更新的信息,例如携带目标小区id。为避免对UE产生太大的影响,可以当DU更换 CU后只更改CellIdentity,但不更改小区的物理小区标识(PCI,Physical Cell Identifier,PhysCellId)。这样,对于UE来说,接入的还是同一个DU,不需要执行随机接入过程寻找新的小区,且物理层和媒体访问控制(MAC,Media Access Control)层的资源不会发生改变。由于CU发生变化,分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)相关的配置信息和服务数据适配协议(Service Data Adaptation Protocol,SDAP)相关的配置信息也会发生变化,那么,donor CU可以通过RRC重配消息将更新的小区配置信息(新的CellIdentity以及不变的PCI)以及承载(bearer)配置信息告知UE,其中承载配置信息可以包含上述PDCP相关的配置信息和SDAP相关的配置信息。除此之外,更新的小区配置信息还可能包括公共陆地移动网络(PLMN,Public Land Mobile Network)信息、跟踪区编码(Tracking Area Code,TAC)、上下行时隙(slot)配置信息。
实施例四:
根据相关技术,gNB-DU ID在一个gNB-CU内是唯一的,但是如果更换CU,则存在冲突的可能。因此,当DU更换CU后,当CU接收到DU发起与CU的连接建立请求时,如果发现当前gNB-DU ID与其他连接的gNB-DU ID存在冲突,则可以发送F1连接建立失败消息(F1 SETUP FAILURE),且将其中的原因(Cause)值设置为未知(Unknown)或DU标识已分配(already allocated gNB-DU ID)。或者,可以发送F1连接建立响应消息(F1 SETUP RESPONSE),并在F1 SETUP RESPONSE中携带CU为gNB-DU分配的新的DU标识。
除此之外,gNB-CU UE F1AP ID,gNB-CU-CP UE E1AP ID,gNB-CU-UP UE E1AP ID也采用同样的方式处理。
实施例五:
根据相关技术,gNB-DU ID在一个gNB-CU内是唯一的,但是如果更换CU,如果继续使用之前分配的DU标识,则存在冲突的可能。因此,当DU更换CU后,为避免冲突的可能,目标CU可以提前为DU分配新的DU标识。本申请实施例至少可以采用以下两种解决方式:
方式1:
步骤1:源CU向目标CU发送切换请求消息,所述切换请求消息携带IAB节点的信息。
步骤2:源CU接收目标CU发送的切换响应消息,所述切换响应消息携带IAB DU的标识信息。
源CU将上述IAB DU的标识信息发送给IAB节点,然后IAB节点可以使用该标识信息与目标CU建立F1连接。
如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,对于迁移的IAB的下行IAB(本实施例中如IAB-node3)来说,也可以采用类似的方式由源CU将上述下行IAB DU的标识信息发送给下行IAB节点,然后下行IAB节点可以使用该标识信息与目标CU建立F1连接。
方式2:
对于迁移的IAB来说,当IAB的MT部分与目标donor CU建立RRC连接后,目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将IAB DU的标识信息发送给IAB节点的MT,然后IAB节点的MT告知DU部分,然后IAB节点可以使用该标识信息与目标CU建立F1连接。
如果迁移的IAB节点继续服务下行IAB节点,那么,对于迁移的IAB的下行IAB(本实施例中如IAB-node3)来说,也可以采用上述方式。当下行IAB的MT部分与目标donor CU建立RRC连接后,目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将下行IAB DU的标识信息发送给下行IAB节点的MT;然后下行IAB节点的MT告知DU部分,然后下行IAB节点可以使用该标识信息与目标CU建立F1连接。
实施例六:
当IAB节点因为链路失败或者其他原因需要执行RRC重建时,如果选择重建的小区连接到一个新的目标donor CU,那么,需要重新获得目标CU的IP地址。例如,目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将自己的IP地址信息发送给IAB节点的MT,然后IAB节点的MT告知DU部分,然后IAB节点的DU部分可以使用该IP地址与目标CU建立TNL连接,然后建立F1连接。
另外,如果IAB在重建一个新的目标donor CU后,继续服务下行IAB节点,那么下行IAB节点也需要重新与新的目标donor CU建立F1连接,也需要获取目标donor CU的IP地址。一种方式是:目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将自己的IP地址信息发送给下行IAB节点的MT,然后下行IAB节点的MT告知DU部分,然后下行IAB节点的DU部分可以使用该IP地址与目标CU建立TNL连接,然后建立F1连接。另外一种方式是:当IAB节点执行RRC重建后,通过适配层消息(adapter layer)将重建完成的指示信息发送给下行IAB节点,所述adapter layer消息包括以下至少一项:所述目标的标识信息,小区标识,CU变更标识,所述第一CU的IP地址,链路重建成功指示。
以上实现方式与上述实施例中的部分方式类似,在此不再赘述。
实施例七:
当IAB节点因为链路失败或者其他原因需要执行RRC重建时,如果选择重 建的小区连接到一个新的目标donor CU,那么,如果继续使用之前分配的DU标识,则存在冲突的可能。因此,当DU更换CU后,为避免冲突的可能,目标CU可以提前为DU分配新的DU标识。
例如,目标donor CU通过RRC重配消息将IAB DU的标识信息发送给IAB节点的MT,然后IAB节点的MT告知DU部分,然后IAB节点的DU部分可以使用该标识信息与目标CU建立F1连接。实现方式与上述实施例中的部分方式类似,在此不再赘述。
实施例八:
