Description

一种通信方法、终端及网络设备
本申请要求于2019年8月15日提交国家知识产权局、申请号为201910755650.X、申请名称为“一种通信方法、终端及网络设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其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,尤其涉及一种通信方法、终端及网络设备。
背景技术
基于边链路(sidelink,SL)的车辆与其他设备通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)通信可以支持不基于反馈的功率控制,即开环功控。其中,开环功控计算过程中需要补偿对应的路损,以确保V2X通信的质量。可以理解的是,在基于边链路的SL通信中,终端的发射功率越大,通信质量就越好。目前,在SL通信中基于开环功控计算发射功率时,路损的补偿可以被配置为只使用SL路损进行补偿,也可以被配置为只使用下行(downlink,DL)路损进行补偿,也可以被配置为SL路损或DL路损都可以使用进行补偿。
由于终端之间的SL通信会对终端和基站之间的基于Uu接口的通信产生干扰,因此,当被配置为SL路损或DL路损都可以用于补偿发射功率时,终端会分别计算根据SL路损计算获得的发射功率以及根据DL路损计算获得的发射功率,并使用两个发射功率中较小的一个进行SL通信。
这样就可能会造成SL通信由于发射功率过小而无法满足通信要求(如通信质量差或通信断开)的情况发生。例如,当根据SL路损计算的发射功率大于根据DL路损计算的发射功率时,就会采用根据DL路损计算获取的相对较小的发射功率进行SL通信,从而出现发射功率不足以进行正常SL通信的问题。一般而言,根据较大的路损补偿获取的发射功率更大,例如,当SL路损大于DL路损时,根据SL路损补偿获取的发射功率一般会大于根据DL路损补偿获取的发射功率,反之,当DL路损大于SL路损时,根据DL路损补偿获取的发射功率一般会大于根据SL路损补偿获取的发射功率。
因此,就需要一种方案,至少能够解决当SL路损大于DL路损时,终端以较低的发射功率进行V2X通信导致的无法满足通信要求的问题。

具体实施方式
为了明确实施例说明中的技术方案,以下对本申请实施例涉及的名词进行解释:
1)、终端,又称之为用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、移动终端(mobile terminal,MT)等,是一种向用户提供语音/数据连通性的设备。例如,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或车载设备等。目前,一些终端的举例为:车载电脑、手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、移动互联网设备(mobile internet device,MID)、可穿戴设备,虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程手术(remote medical  surgery)中的无线终端、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、或智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端等。
2)、通用移动通信网络(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS)是由第三代合作伙伴计划(The 3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)组织制定的3G移动通信技术标准,而通用移动通信技术的长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)是由3GPP组织制定的UMTS技术标准的长期演进。因为演进关系,我们将LTE接入网部分称为演进的UMTS陆地无线接入网(Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network,E-UTRAN)。对应的,LTE核心网部分可以称为演进的分组核心(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)。区别于3G和4G通信技术标准,将5G接入网部分称为NG-RAN,将5G核心网部分称为5GC。
3)、移动管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)是3GPP协议LTE接入网络的关键控制节点,它负责空闲模式的UE(User Equipment)的定位,传呼过程,包括中继。简单的说MME是负责信令处理部分。服务网关(Serving GateWay,S-GW)是终止于E-UTRAN接口的网关,示例性的,S-GW的主要功能可以包括:进行eNB间切换时,可以作为本地锚定点,并协助完成eNB的重排序功能;在3GPP不同接入网络间切换时,作为移动性锚点,同样具有重排序功能;执行合法侦听功能;进行数据包的路由和前转;在上行和下行传输层进行分组标记;空闲状态下,下行分组缓冲和发起网络触发的服务请求功能;用于运营商间的计费等。
4)、网络设备是无线网络中的设备,例如将终端接入到无线网络的无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)节点。目前,一些RAN节点的举例为:gNB、ng-eNB、传输接收点(transmission reception point,TRP)、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(base band unit,BBU)、路边单元(Roadside Unit,RSU),或无线保真(wireless fidelity,Wifi)接入点(access point,AP)等。
5)、车辆与其他设备通信:即V2X通信,可以应用于交通运输网络中。V2X通信可以包括车与车(Vehicle to Vehicle,V2V)通信、车与路侧基础设施(Vehicle to Infrastructure,V2I)通信以及车与行人(Vehicle to People,V2P)通信。其中,V2V通信可以在边链路(sidelink)上进行,V2I通信可以在下行链路(Downlink,DL)上进行。
6)、SL通信:基于sidelink的通信。SL通信可以在物理SL控制信道(Pysical Sidelink Control Channel,PSCCH)和/或物理SL共享信道(Pysical Sidelink Share Channel,PSSCH)上传输数据。示例性的,SL通信链路是指终端设备和终端设备之间的无线通信链路,比如可以是V2X通信中,车辆的通信装置和另一车辆的通信装置之间的无线通信链路。
7)、Uu口通信:基于Uu口的终端与网络设备之间的通信,可以包括DL通信。
8)、路损:本申请中涉及SL路损以及DL路损。SL路损为SL通信中,终端与终 端之间的数据传播损耗。DL路损为DL通信中,终端与网络设备之间的数据传播损耗。路损的大小与设备之间的距离成正相关的关系。如终端之间的距离越大,SL路损越大。又如,终端与网络设备(如基站)之间的距离越大,DL路损越大。
9)、SL发射功率:SL通信过程中,终端发起SL通信时采用的发射功率。SL发射功率可以包括PSCCH和/或PSSCH,以及其它SL链路上的信号或者信道的发射功率。
另外,本申请实施例中,“多个”是指两个或两个以上,其它量词与之类似。“和/或”描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。此外,对于单数形式“a”,“an”和“the”出现的元素(element),除非上下文另有明确规定,否则其不意味着“一个或仅一个”,而是意味着“一个或多于一个”。例如,“a device”意味着对一个或多个这样的device。再者,至少一个(at least one of).......”意味着后续关联对象中的一个或任意组合,例如“A,B和C中的至少一个”包括A,B,C,AB,AC,BC,或ABC。
在V2X通信中,终端在发起SL通信时,首先需要确定SL发射功率。示例性的,可以通过以下公式(1)和公式(2)分别确定PSSCH和PSCCH的发射功率。
P PSSCH=min{P CMAX,PSSCH,10log 10(M PSSCH)+P 0_PSSCH,1PSSCH,1·PL}……公式(1)
其中,P PSSCH为PSSCH的发射功率,P CMAX,PSSCH为预配置的PSSCH上的最大发射功率,M PSSCH为网络设备为PSSCH配置的资源数量,P 0_PSSCH,1为SL通信中接收终端在PSCCH上的期望接收功率,α PSSCH,1为路损补偿系数,PL为路损补偿值。其中,接收终端为SL通信中接收数据的终端。
P PSCCH=min{P CMAX,PSCCH,10log 10(M PSCCH)+P 0_PSCCH,1PSCCH,1·PL}……公式(2)
其中,P PSCCH为PSCCH的发射功率,P CMAX,PSCCH为预配置的PSCCH上的最大发射功率,M PSCCH为网络设备为PSCCH配置的资源数量,P 0_PSCCH,1为SL通信中接收终端在PSSCH上的期望接收功率,α PSCCH,1为路损调整系数,PL为路损补偿值。
可以看到,SL发射功率是需要根据SL通信发起时的路损补偿值以及其他功控参数(如P CMAX,M,P 0或α)确定的。具体采用SL路损还是DL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,可以根据预先配置的补偿策略确定。
需要说明的是,在本实施例中,采用SL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,指的是确定SL发射功率时的路损补偿值为SL路损的值。采用DL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,指的是确定SL发射功率时的路损补偿值为DL路损的值。
示例性的,该补偿策略可以是使用SL路损或者只使用SL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,还可以是使用DL路损或者只使用DL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,还可以是SL路损和DL路损均可对SL发射功率进行补偿。为了减小SL通信对Uu口通信的干扰,当补偿策略是SL路损和DL路损均可对SL发射功率进行补偿时,终端会选取根据DL路损计算获取的SL发射功率与根据SL路损计算获取的SL发射功率中较小的SL发射功率,发起SL通信。
这样就可能会出现采用较小的SL发射功率发起SL通信导致的发射功率太小而无法满足通信要求的情况发生。
例如,终端1和终端2处于相同网络设备的覆盖范围内时的情况请参考图1。当 终端1想要向终端2发起SL通信时,如果SL路损大于DL路损,那么终端1至少需要采用根据SL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信,才可以保证满足SL通信的要求。而此时如果为了减小对Uu口通信的干扰而采用根据DL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信,就必然会导致发射功率过小的情况发生。当终端2想要向终端1发起SL通信时,类似的,如果SL路损大于终端2与网络设备之间的DL路损,而如果终端2为了减小对Uu口通信的干扰而采用根据终端2与网络设备之间的DL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信,也会导致发射功率过小的情况发生。
又如,终端1和终端2处于不同网络设备的覆盖范围内时的情况请参考图2。假设终端1处于网络设备1的覆盖范围内,终端2处于网络设备2的覆盖范围内,终端1与网络设备1之间的路损为DL路损1,终端2与网络设备2之间的路损为DL路损2,并且终端1与终端2之间的路损为SL路损。那么,当终端1想要向终端2发起SL通信时,如果SL路损大于DL路损1,而终端1采用根据DL路损1补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信,该SL发射功率就因为过小而不能保证SL通信的要求。类似的,当终端2想要向终端1发起SL通信时,如果SL路损大于DL路损2,而终端2采用根据DL路损2补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信,该SL发射功率也不能保证SL通信的要求。
因此,当SL路损大于DL路损时,就可能会出现SL发射功率过小而导致的SL通信无法达到要求(如SL通信质量差甚至SL通信断开)的情况。
为了解决上述问题,本申请实施例提供一种通信方法,可以有效的保证SL通信质量。
以下结合附图对本申请提供的通信方法进行详细说明。
请参考图3,为本申请实施例提供的一种网络架构示意图。以LTE网络为例,作为一种示例,该网络架构可以包括E-UTRAN和EPC,E-UTRAN用于提供面向终端的E-UTRA用户面和控制面协议终端,EPC用于呼叫信令控制和承载建立。该E-UTRAN可以由一个或多个eNB组成,而EPC可以包括一个或多个S-GW和MME。其中,eNB之间可以通过X2接口相互连接。E-UTRAN中的eNB可以通过S1-MME接口连接到MME,并通过S1-U接口连接到S-GW。
请参考图4,为本申请实施例提供的另一种网络架构示意图。以5G网络为例,作为一种示例,该网络架构可以包括由一个或多个gNB和/或一个或多个ng-eNB组成的NG-RAN,以及由一个或多个接入和移动管理功能实体(Core Access and Mobility Management Function,AMF)和/或一个或多个用户计划功能实体(User plane Function,UPF)组成的5GC。其中,gNB可以提供面向终端的新空口(New Radio,NR)用户平面和控制平面协议终端,ng-eNB提供面向终端的E-UTRA用户平面和控制平面协议终端。gNB与ng-NB之间可以通过Xn接口互相连接,gNB与ng-NB都可以通过NG接口连接到5GC。
请参考图5,为本申请提供的一种终端的逻辑组成示意图。该终端至少包括第一层实体和第二层实体。第一层实体可以是接入层(AS层),或者接入层内的具体协议层,比如RRC层,第二层实体可以是PC5-S层,V2X层,或者应用层。其中,作为一种示例,如图5所示,终端可以包括第一层实体和第二层实体,其中第一层实体可以 包括AS层,第二层实体可以包括PC5-S层,V2X层,以及应用层。
示例性的,AS层可以是进行无线空口接入相关的协议层,如RRC,PDCP,RLC,MAC,PHY层等。PC5-S层可以是PC5口的信令协议层,能够用于完成PC5口的连接建立。V2X层可以是是V2X相关的管理协议实体。示例性的,V2X层数据面的功能包括,把3GPP协议层之前的数据映射到3GPP协议能够处理的数据,供3GPP协议层处理。其中,PC5-S层可以是PC5口的信令协议层,能够用于完成PC5口的连接建立。在一些实施例中,PC5-S层可以是V2X层的一个子集,例如,PC5-S层可以是V2X层的控制面协议。
在本申请实施例中,AS层可以用于与其他终端进行SL通信。在该终端进行SL通信的过程中,AS层还可用于获取该终端与其他终端之间的SL路损,及该终端与网络设备之间的DL路损。在一些情况下,AS层还可以用于判断SL路损与DL路损的大小关系。AS层还可用于向V2X层上报第一指示信息,该第一指示信息可以包括AS层实体获取的SL路损和/或DL路损,第一指示信息还可以包括AS层判断SL路损与DL路损的大小关系。
V2X层可以用于处理AS层上报的信息,如该信息可以是AS层上报的上述第一指示信息。V2X层还可以确定并向AS层下发信息,用于AS层根据该信息进行SL通信。在一些情况下,V2X层可以预先存储有进行SL通信的传输资源或者功控参数或者SL专用载波等信息,SL专用载波可以是V2X专用载波。
需要说明的是,图5所示终端的逻辑组成及层的命名(如AS层,V2X层等)仅是本实施例提供的一种示例。在另一些实施例中,终端的逻辑组成可包括比图示更多或更少的层,层也可以采用其他命名。
本申请实施例提供的通信方法均可基于如图5所示的终端实现。本申请实施例提供的通信方法可应用于V2X通信中。用于支持V2X通信的网络可以为任意移动通信网络,如,图3或图4所示的网络。另外,本实施例的技术方案可应用于V2X通信的任意场景中,如,图1或图2所示的场景。
为了更加清楚的对本申请实施例进行说明,以下示例均以终端被配置为SL路损和DL路损均可对SL发射功率进行补偿,且发射功率采用根据以上两种路损补偿获得的较小的发射功率发起SL通信的情况进行说明。
请参考图6,为本申请实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图。该方法可以包括S601-S604。
S601、终端向网络设备发送第一指示信息,第一指示信息包括以下至少一种:SL路损,DL路损,SL路损与DL路损的大小关系。
示例性的,该第一指示信息中包括的SL路损,可以是SL路损的值,或者可以反映SL路损的测量值,比如信道的RSRP(Reference Signal Receiving Power,参考信号接收功率)或者RSRQ(Reference Signal Receiving Quality,参考信号接收质量)等值。第一指示信息中包括的DL路损,可以是DL路损的值,或者可以反映SL路损的测量值,比如信道的RSRP或者RSRQ等值。第一指示信息中包括的SL路损与DL路损的大小关系可以是SL路损的值与DL路损的值的大小关系,如SL路损大于DL路损或DL路损大于SL路损。
可以理解的是,当SL路损大于DL路损时,为了减小对Uu口通信的干扰,终端会 采用DL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信。这样就可能会出现SL发射功率不足以进行SL通信的情况,那么终端就可以将该情况发送给网络设备。
本申请实施例中,终端可以在预设条件被触发时向网络设备发送第一指示信息。
在一些实施例中,终端可以在确定SL路损大于第一值时,向网络设备发送第一指示信息。其中,第一值可以为DL路损,也可以为根据DL路损确定的值,如第一值等于DL路损减去预设阈值。
在其他一些实施例中,终端可以设置定时器。终端可以控制该定时器从终端第一次确定SL路损大于第二值起开始计时,如果在定时器计时结束之前(即在预设时间内),确定SL路损始终大于DL路损,以此便确定SL路损大于DL路损的情况是真实稳定出现的,那么终端就可以在定时器结束计时向网络设备发送第一指示信息。其中,第二值可以为DL路损,也可以为根据DL路损确定的值,如第二值等于DL路损减去预设阈值。
在另外一些实施例中,终端可以对无线链路失败(RLF)的发生进行监听,当终端确定RLF发生,并且该RLF发生的原因是SL路损大于第三值时,那么终端就可以向网络设备发送第一指示信息,向网络指示RLF发生的原因,比如,是SL路损大于第三值。其中,第三值可以为DL路损,也可以为根据DL路损确定的值,如第三值等于DL路损减去预设阈值。
需要说明的是,在上述示例中,第一值、第二值与第三值,可以相同,也可以不同。由于SL路损和DL路损会随着终端之间的相对位置的变化以及终端与网络设备之间相对位置的变化而改变,因此,为了更够更加准确及时的发送第一指示信息,终端可以适当提前发送第一指示信息的时间。因此,上述第一值、第二值及第三值可以不等于DL路损,而是小于该DL路损。
本申请实施例中,在提供如上述几种根据预设条件发送第一指示信息的方法之外,还提供其他的发送第一指示信息的方法。例如,终端可以在确定满足上述预设条件中的任一个条件,且在确定在发起SL通信时采用的是根据DL补偿获得的SL发射功率时(比如,根据配置,和SL路损和DL路损对比关系,选择DL路损作为SL发射功率计算),再向网络设备发送第一指示信息。又例如,终端可以按照预设的周期,周期性地向网络设备发送第一指示信息。
S602、网络设备接收来自终端的第一指示信息。
网络设备接收到来自终端的第一指示信息,就能够获知终端进行SL通信的参数,如,SL路损,DL路损和SL路损与DL路损的大小关系中的至少一个。基于这些参数,网络设备就能够确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。如果确定终端会出现SL发射功率过小的情况,则执行以下S603。
示例性的,在一些实施例中,网络设备可以在确定SL路损大于第一值时,确定终端会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。第一值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定的值。
在另一些实施例中,网络设备可以在确定SL路损在预设时间内始终大于第二值时,确定终端会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。第二值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定的值。这样网络设备就能够确定SL路损大于第二值是一个持续的过程,进而避免某个时刻的参数异常导致的判断不准确的问题。
示例性的,网络设备中可以设置定时器,在网络设备接收到第一指示信息,并且确定SL路损大于第二值后,定时器开始计时。如果从定时器开始计时到定时器结束计时为止,网络设备基于一个或多个接收到的第一指示信息确定SL路损一直大于第二值,那么网络设备就可以确定SL路损大于第二值为真实稳定出现的,以便网络设备可以更加准确的确定当前SL通信是否存在SL发射功率过小的问题。
需要说明的是,在上述示例中,第一值与第二值可以相同,也可以不同。
由于第一指示信息中可以只包括SL路损或DL路损,因此网络设备还可以从其他信息中获取DL路损或SL路损,以便网络设备确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。
例如,如果第一指示信息中包括SL路损的值,网络设备可以从其他信息中获取DL路损的值,以便网络设备能够确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。
又如,如果第一指示信息中包括DL路损的值,网络设备可以从其他信息中获取SL路损的值,以便网络设备能够确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。
又如,如果第一指示信息中包括SL路损与DL路损的大小关系,网络设备可以直接根据该大小关系,确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。或者,网络设备可以从其他信息中获取DL路损和SL路损的值,并确定SL路损与第一值或第二值的大小关系,同时与第一指示信息中的大小关系进行对比,最终确定终端是否会出现SL发射功率过小的情况。
S603、网络设备向终端发送第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于终端进行SL通信。
结合S602中的说明,网络设备可以基于第一指示信息判断当前SL通信是否存在SL发射功率过小的问题。当网络设备确定当前SL通信存在SL发射功率过小的问题,那么网络设备可以判断是否要采取措施来保证该SL通信的进行。
示例性的,网络设备可以根据当前SL通信的业务情况(如业务优先级),确定是否采取相应的措施保证该SL通信的进行(即提高该SL通信质量)。例如,当前SL通信的业务优先级较低,那么网络设备就可以确定不需要采取相应的措施保证该SL通信的进行。又例如,当前SL通信的业务优先级很高(如终端需要通过该SL通信发送重要数据),那么网络设备就可以确定要采取相应的措施保证该SL通信的进行。例如,保证SL通信正常进行的措施可以包括启用频域和/或时域覆盖增强、调整功控参数以及切换通信载波等。如,本申请实施例中,网络设备可以向终端发送包括对应措施的第二指示信息,以便终端可以根据该第二指示信息进行SL通信,达到保证SL通信正常进行的目的。
示例性的,在本申请的一些实施例中,网络设备可以启动覆盖增强技术,并将覆盖增强技术相关的措施通过第二指示信息发送给终端。
例如,覆盖增强技术可以包括频域覆盖增强。网络设备可以向终端分配更多的频域资源,并将该频域资源携带在第二指示信息发送给终端,以便终端在没有达到最大发射功率时,可以在网络设备分配的更多的频域资源上将要发送的数据进行重复传输,以实现覆盖增强。
又如,覆盖增强技术可以包括时域覆盖增强。网络设备可以为终端分配更多的时域资源,并将该时域资源携带在第二指示信息发送给终端,以便终端可以在网络设备 分配的更多的时域资源上对将要发送的数据进行重复传输,以实现覆盖增强。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中的频域覆盖增强和时域覆盖增强,可以是在更多的资源上进行重复发送,也可以是利用跳频、波束成型等方法来实现覆盖增强。
又如,覆盖增强技术可以包括对SL发射功率的调整。网络设备可以调整功控参数(如公式(1)和公式(2)中的P 0和/或α),并将该功控参数通过第二指示信息发送给终端,以便终端可以根据调整后的功控参数重新计算获取SL发射功率以提高SL通信质量。
另外,在使用以上示例中的覆盖增强技术(如频域覆盖增强、时域覆盖增强以及调整功控参数)时,可以选择其中一种技术以提高SL通信质量,也可以选择任意两种或多种技术以提高SL通信质量,本申请实施例在此不作限制。
需要说明的是,在一些实施例中,用于覆盖增强的频域资源、时域资源以及功控参数,可以是网络设备在确定启动覆盖增强技术之后为终端分配的,如上述示例中向终端发送的第二指示信息中可以包括网络设备为终端分配的频域资源、时域资源和功控参数中的一种或多种。
在另一些实施例中,用于覆盖增强的频域资源、时域资源以及功控参数,也可以是预先配置在终端中的。示例性的,第二指示信息中可以包括用于指示终端使用预置的资源(如频域资源、时域资源或功控参数)进行覆盖增强的信息,以便终端能够根据该第二指示信息进行覆盖增强。
本申请实施例提供的通信方法中,网络设备还可以采用载波切换的方法提高SL通信质量。示例性的,在一些实施例中,网络设备可以向终端发送包括专用载波信息的第二指示信息,该专用载波信息可以包括网络为终端分配的SL专用载波资源,或者V2X专用载波资源,以指示终端将当前共享载波上的SL通信切换到专用载波信息中指示的SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波上进行SL通信。在另一些实施例中,SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波资源也可以是预配置在终端中的。网络设备可以将包括切换指示的第二指示信息发送给终端,以便终端根据该切换指示将当前SL通信切换到预先配置好的SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波上进行通信。
在另一些实施例中,如果当前传输资源紧张并且该SL通信并非必要,网络设备也可以确定断开当前SL通信,以释放被占用的资源。那么,网络设备就可以向终端发送包括中断指示的第二指示信息,以便指示终端断开当前SL通信。
S604、终端接收来自网络设备的第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于终端进行SL通信。
结合S603中的示例,终端可以根据来自网络设备的第二指示信息执行对应的方案,对当前SL通信进行调整,以便提高当前SL通信质量或者断开SL通信。
示例性的,在一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括SL通信所需的频域资源和/或时域资源。终端可以将要传输的数据在该频域资源和/或时域资源上重复传输,以保证接收端终端能够准确地接收到该数据。其中,终端在进行上述频域覆盖增强和/或时域覆盖增强时,采用的SL发射功率可以与之前的SL发射功率相同(如根据DL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率),也可以不同。具体的SL发射功率的选择,可以根据实施过程中的实际情况灵活设置。
在另一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括功控参数。终端可以根据第二指示信息中包括的调整后的功控参数重新计算SL发射功率进行SL通信。其中,终端在根据功控参数重新获取SL发射功率时,可以采用DL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿,也可以采用SL路损对SL发射功率进行补偿。
在另一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括专用载波信息,终端可以将当前SL通信切换到该专用载波信息指示的SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波上进行通信。或者,当SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波已经被提前配置在终端中时,第二指示信息可以包括切换指示,那么终端就可以根据该切换指示将当前SL通信切换到预先配置好的SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波上进行通信。
需要说明的是,由于在SL专用载波或者V2X专用载波上进行的SL通信不会对Uu口通信产生干扰,因此,在切换载波的同时,终端可以采用更高的发射功率进行SL通信(如采用根据SL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率发起SL通信),以便提高SL通信质量。
在另一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括中断指示,终端可以在接收到第二指示信息之后断开当前SL通信,以便释放当前SL通信占用的资源。
本申请另一些实施例中,网络设备在接收到终端的第一指示信息之后,可以在确定终端存在SL发射功率过小的问题时,便向终端发送第二指示信息,也可以等待一定时间后再向终端发送第二指示信息。示例性的,网络设备在接收到终端发送的第一指示信息,确定终端存在SL发射功率过小的问题之后,如果当前网络资源紧张,没有更多的资源可以提供给终端进行覆盖增强或者切换V2X专用载波,那么网络设备就可以在等待有空闲资源后再向终端发送第二指示信息。在这段等待时间内,终端可以继续执行当前SL通信,在接收到第二指示信息之后,终端就可以根据第二指示信息进行SL通信。
需要说明的是,上述示例中的方法,可以应用于终端被配置为可以自行选择SL路损或DL路损补偿获取SL发射功率的场景下,也可以应用于其他场景。例如,终端被配置为使用DL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率进行SL通信。在该场景下,如果终端可以向网络设备发送第一指示信息,网络设备可以基于该第一指示信息确定SL路损大于DL路损或根据DL路损确定的值,并向终端发送第二指示信息,用于指示终端将上述策略重配为使用SL路损补偿获取的SL发射功率进行SL通信。详细的执行过程请参考图6,此处不再赘述。
这样,终端通过第一指示信息将SL通信过程中的路损情况发送给网络设备,网络设备就能够知晓当前SL通信的状态(如SL通信质量的好坏,是否有断开连接的问题等)。网络设备基于第一指示信息确定需要保证当前SL通信时,就可以向终端发送第二指示信息,用于指示终端通过覆盖增强、调整功控参数和/或切换载波等方法提高当前SL通信的质量,保证SL通信的正常进行。
本申请的又一实施例提供一种通信方法,终端的第一层实体可以向终端的第二层实体发送当前SL通信的相关参数,以便终端的第二层实体确定对当前SL通信进行调整,并指示终端的第一层实体执行对应的SL通信,以解决SL路损大于DL路损时可能导致的SL通信质量无法得到保证的问题。
请参考图7,为本申请实施例提供的另一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图7所示,该方法可以包括S701-S702。
S701、终端的第一层实体向终端的第二层实体发送第一指示信息,第一指示信息包括以下至少一种:SL路损,DL路损,SL路损与DL路损的大小关系。
类似于S601中的示例,在一些实施例中,终端的第一层实体(如AS层)可以在预设条件被触发时向终端的第二层实体(如V2X层)发送第一指示信息。例如,AS层确定SL路损大于第一值,向V2X层发送第一指示信息,第一值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定;或,AS层确定SL路损在预设时间内始终大于第二值,向V2X层发送第一指示信息,第二值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定;或,AS层在确定RLF,SL路损大于第三值时,向V2X层发送第一指示信息,第三值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定。
在另一些实施例中,终端的第一层实体(如AS层)也可以按照预设的周期,向终端的第二层实体(如V2X层)周期性地发送第一指示信息。
S702、终端的第二层实体向终端的第一层实体发送第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于终端进行SL通信。
类似于S602中的说明,终端的第二层实体可以基于接收到的第一指示信息确定当前SL通信是否存在SL发射功率偏小的问题。
示例性的,在一些实施例中,V2X层可以基于第一指示信息确定SL路损是否大于第一值。该第一值可以是根据DL路损确定的值,也可以是DL路损。如果SL路损大于第一值,那么可确定当前SL通信就存在SL发射功率的问题。在另一些实施例中,V2X层可以基于第一指示信息确定SL路损在预设时间内是否始终大于第二值,第二值是DL路损或根据DL路损确定。如果SL路损在预设时间内一直大于第二值,那么可确定当前SL通信就存在SL发射功率较小的问题。
可选的,在上述条件的基础上,V2X层可以确定当前SL通信的SL发射功率是采用DL路损进行补偿获取的,从而明确当前SL通信存在SL发射功率较小的问题。
本申请实施例中,由于第一指示信息中可能不同时包括SL路损与DL路损,因此V2X层还可以根据其他信息确定DL路损或SL路损,进而判断当前SL通信是否存在SL发射功率偏小的问题。
V2X层在确定当前SL通信存在SL发射功率过小的问题后,可以判断是否需要采取相应的措施来保证该SL通信。示例性的,V2X层可以根据当前SL通信的业务情况(如业务优先级),确定是否采取相应的措施保证该SL通信的进行。例如,当前SL通信的业务优先级很高,那么网络设备就可以确定要采取相应的措施保证该SL通信的进行。
当V2X层确定要采取相应的措施保证该SL通信继续进行时,可以确定对应的措施并通过第二指示信息将该措施的指示发送给AS层,以进行SL通信。
示例性的,在一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括进行SL通信所需的传输资源(如可以用于进行覆盖增强的频域资源和/或时域资源),以便AS层能够在该传输资源上进行频域和/或时域覆盖增强。
在另一些实施例中,第二指示信息可以包括功控参数,以便AS层能够根据该功控参数重新计算SL发射功率进行SL通信。
在另一些实施例中,第二指示信息包括进行SL通信所需的专用载波信息,专用载波信息可以指示V2X专用载波,以便AS层能够将SL通信切换到V2X专用载波上进行通信。或者,第二指示信息可以包括切换指示,以便AS层能够将SL通信切换到预先设置的V2X专用载波上进行通信。
需要说明的是,上述覆盖增强的资源,或者SL/V2X专用载波信息,或者功控参数信息,可以是预配置在V2X层中的,也可以是V2X层预先从网络获取的。
如果V2X层根据当前SL通信的业务情况确定不需要采取相应的措施保证该SL通信继续进行,那么V2X层就可以向终端发送包括中断指示的第二指示信息,以便AS断开当前SL通信,释放占用的资源。
本实施例提供的方法的详细描述可以参考图6的相关步骤中的具体描述,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例提供的方法,终端可以通过V2X层确定是否要采取对应的措施来提高当前SL通信的质量,并将对应的措施发送给AS层执行。这些措施采用的资源(如进行覆盖增强的频域资源以及时域资源,又如调整SL发射功率的功控参数,又如V2X专用载波资源)可以是预置在V2X层中的,当V2X层确定需要执行保证SL通信的进行,那么就可以将这些预置的措施发送给AS层。
这样,终端的AS层将当前SL通信的参数(如SL路损、DL路损以及SL路损与DL路损的大小关系中的一个或多个)发送给V2X层,以便V2X层可通过第二指示信息指示AS层进行相应的措施以保证当前SL通信的通信质量,也就解决了SL路损大于DL路损时可能导致的SL通信质量无法保证的问题。可以看到,本申请实施例提供的方法,终端通过V2X层与AS层之间的交互,可保证SL通信质量,并不需要与网络设备进行交互,因此该实施例可以应用于终端无法与网络设备进行交互的场景下。
上述主要从各个网元之间交互的角度对本申请实施例提供的方案进行了介绍。可以理解的是,上述终端和网络设备为了实现上述功能,其包括了执行各个功能相应的硬件结构和/或软件模块。本领域技术人员应该很容易意识到,结合本文中所公开的实施例描述的各示例的单元,本申请能够以硬件或硬件和计算机软件的结合形式来实现。某个功能究竟以硬件还是计算机软件驱动硬件的方式来执行,取决于技术方案的特定应用和设计约束条件。专业技术人员可以对每个特定的应用来使用不同方法来实现所描述的功能,但是这种实现不应认为超出本申请的范围。
本申请实施例可以根据上述方法示例对终端和网络设备进行功能模块的划分,例如,可以对应各个功能划分各个功能模块,也可以将两个或两个以上的功能集成在一个处理模块中。上述集成的模块既可以采用硬件的形式实现,也可以采用软件功能模块的形式实现。可选的,本申请实施例中对模块的划分是示意性的,仅仅为一种逻辑功能划分,实际实现时可以有另外的划分方式。
图8示出了的一种通信装置800的组成示意图,该通信装置800可以为终端或者终端中的芯片或者片上系统,该通信装置800可以用于执行上述实施例中涉及的终端的功能。作为一种可实现方式,图8所示通信装置800包括:发送模块801和接收模块802。
