Description

一种通信方法及相关设备 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种通信方法方法及相关设备。
背景技术
车联网(vehicle to everthing,V2X)是智能交通运输系统的关键技术,被认为是物联网体系中最有产业潜力、市场需求最明确的领域之一,具有应用空间广、产业潜力大、社会效益强的特点,对促进汽车和信息通信产业创新发展,构建汽车和交通服务新模式新业态,推动无人驾驶、辅助驾驶、智能驾驶、网联驾驶、智能网联驾驶、自动驾驶、汽车共享等技术的创新和应用,提高交通效率和安全水平具有重要意义。车联网一般是指通过装载在车上的传感器、车载终端设备等提供车辆信息,实现车辆到车辆(vehicle to vehicle,V2V),车辆到基础设施(vehicle to infrastructure,V2I),车辆到网络(vehicle to Network,V2N)以及车辆到行人(vehicle to pedestrian,V2P)之间的相互通信的通信网络。一般的,在V2X场景下,终端设备与其他终端设备之间进行直连通信的通信链路可以称之为边链路或者侧行链路(sidelink,SL)。终端设备与网络设备之间的无线通信链路可以称之为上行链路(uplink,UL)或者下行链路(downlink,DL),由于UL或DL接口可以称之为Uu口,所以UL或者DL可以称之为Uu口链路。
现有机制中,为了激活/去激活某个SL半静态调度(semi-persistent scheduling,SPS),网络设备需要向终端设备发送SL SPS的激活/去激活信息,终端设备在接收到该激活/去激活信息后,或者成功解码该SL SPS的激活/去激活信息后,或者确认该SL SPS激活/去激活成功后,可以向网络设备反馈SL SPS确认信息,使得网络设备和终端设备对于某个SL SPS的激活/去激活的理解保持一致。
然而在存在多个具有不同参数(如周期、偏移等参数)的SL SPS,且该多个SL SPS需要同时激活/去激活的情况下,现有机制将无法保证网络设备和终端设备对于某个SL SPS资源的激活/去激活状态的理解是一致的。

其中,包含MAC CE的MAC子PDU放置在包含MAC SDU的MAC子PDU之后,且在填充MAC子PDU之前。其中填充为可选项,即填充大小可以为0。
每个MAC子头对应于一个MAC SDU或一个MAC CE或填充。其中,MAC子头也可以对应于0比特(bit)MAC CE,即由该MAC子头和0bit MAC CE组成的MAC子PDU只包含该MAC子头。除了固定大小的MAC CE,填充和大小为48bit的公共控制信道(common control channel,CCCH)的MAC SDU之外的MAC子头部由四个头部字段R/F/LCID/L组成。用于固定大小的MAC CE,填充和大小为48bit的CCCH的MAC SDU的MAC子头部由两个头部字段R/LCID组成。MAC子头是八位对齐的,其中MAC子头(subheader)的各字段代表的含义可以如下:
·R:保留bit,设置为0,无实际意义,用于占位;
·F:格式字段,仅存在于R/F/LCID/L类型的MAC子头中且每一该类型的MAC子头中都包含一个F字段,指示L字段包含的bit数,值为0表示L字段为8bit,值为1表示L字段值为16bit;

该第一链路可以为该网络设备和该终端设备之间的通信链路,该第二链路可以为该终端设备和其他终端设备之间的直连通信链路,下面以该第一链路为Uu口链路,该第二链路为SL,该第一授权为第一SL SPS为例,也就是说下面实施例中的SL SPS只是SL的授权的代表,可以用其他名称代替,如“SL SPS”可以用“SL CG”或者“SL CG type2”替换。
网络设备可以通过Uu口链路的PDCCH或者DCI向终端设备发送该第一SL SPS的激活或去激活信息。
或者,网络设备还可以同时发送多个SL SPS的激活或去激活信息,或者在同一个DCI中同时激活或者去激活多个SL SPS,该多个SL SPS可以是指具有不同参数的多个SL SPS,如资源周期不同的SL SPS,资源偏移不同的SL SPS,或者授权索引不同的SL SPS,也可以是指具有相同参数的多个SL SPS。
该激活或去激活信息可以包括以下任一种或多种:激活命令,重激活命令,去激活命令,释放命令。

示例性的,可以从现有上行共享信道(uplink shared channel,UL-SCH)的预留的LCID值(例如,LCID索引index为33-51)中设置一部分用作专用LCID。例如,可以使用预留的LCID值中的m个LCID值作为专用LCID值,m为大于零的整数,其中m可以为SL上支持的CG(CG可以包括type1 CG和type2 CG)的最大数量,或者m可以为SL上支持的SL SPS(或者type2 CG)的最大数量。例如,SL SPS index等于0的SL SPS的专用LCID的LCID index可以等于33,则终端设备在触发或者生成或者发送SL SPS index等于0的SL SPS确认信息时,在该确认信息的MAC子头中的LCID字段使用取值33,或者在MAC CE中包含该LCID取值;SL SPS index等于1的SL SPS的专用LCID的LCID index可以等于34或者35,则终端设备在触发或者生成或者发送SL SPS index等于1的SL SPS确认信息时,在该确认信息的MAC子头中的LCID字段使用取值34或者35,或者在MAC CE中包含该LCID取值。这样终端设备在发送某一SL SPS确认信息时,可以在该SL SPS确认信息中包括该SL SPS(或者SL SPS index)的专用LCID,例如,可以在该确认信息的MAC子头中的LCID字段使用该专用LCID取值,或者在MAC CE中包含该专用LCID取值,网络设备可以根据接收到的该SL SPS确认信息中包括的该SL SPS专用LCID确定该SL SPS激活/去激活成功。

情况2:该第一信息可以包括该第一SL SPS对应的第一链路业务LCID。

该第一链路可以为该网络设备和该终端设备之间的通信链路,该第二链路可以为该终端设备和其他终端设备之间的直连通信链路,下面以该第一链路为Uu口链路,该第二链路为SL例。
该第一授权的类型可以为配置授权,例如SL configured grant type-2,SL SPS,或者动态授权。如果该第一授权为第一SL SPS,那么在网络设备通过第一链路向终端设备发送第一SL SPS的激活或去激活信息之前,网络设备还需要通过第一链路向终端设备发送第一SL SPS的配置信息,例如网络设备通过RRC信令向终端设备发送第一SL SPS的周期。
下面实施例中以该第一授权为第一SL SPS为例,也就是说下面实施例中的SL SPS只是SL的授权的代表,可以用其他类型授权代替。
网络设备可以通过Uu口链路的PDCCH或者DCI向终端设备发送该第一SL SPS的激活或去激活信息。或者,网络设备还可以同时发送多个SL SPS的激活或去激活信息,或者在同一个DCI中同时激活或者去激活多个SL SPS,该多个SL SPS可以是指具有不同参数的多个SL SPS,如资源周期不同的SL SPS,资源偏移不同的SL SPS,或者授权索引不同的SL SPS,也可以是指具有相同参数的多个SL SPS。

可选地,第一指示信息用于直接指示多个SL SPS(或者SL SPS index)分别与一个或多个第二授权的授权索引(index)的对应关系。即,第一指示信息可以为一个对应关系的列表,列表中的每一行指一个SL SPS或者SL SPS index,以及该SL SPS或者SL SPS index关联的第二授权。
当第二授权是UL CG,则因为Uu口上可能只支持一个激活的UL CG,或者说在同一时刻只能存在一个激活的UL CG,在这种场景下,如图4B所示,该第一指示信息可以用于指示该终端设备在该第二授权的第一传输机会上发送该第一信息,该第二授权可以是用于Uu口链路通信的周期性UL CG。示例性的,该第一指示信息可以采用第一参数指示该UL CG的传输机会。

以此类推,若该第一参数为“2”,即第一参数的字段长度大于1比特,则表示在该UL CG的两个周期后的首次传输机会上上报该第一信息,不再赘述。
可选地,第一参数的取值为UL CG的周期的整数倍。
可选的,在Uu口上只支持一个激活的UL CG场景下,网络设备可以给不同的SL SPS配置不同的定时器配置信息,例如该第一指示信息可以是个第一定时器配置信息,

操作502:网络设备向终端设备发送该第二授权的配置信息,或者,该第二授权的激活/去激活信息,该第二授权用于Uu口链路通信。
该第二授权可以是上行链路配置授权(UL CG),包括type1 CG或者type2 CG,则该网络设备可以向终端设备发送UL CG的配置信息,或者,该UL CG的激活信息/去激活信息。或者,该第二授权可以是上行链路动态授权(UL DG),则该网络设备可以向终端设备发送该UL DG的激活信息/去激活信息。

表5:
Figure PCTCN2019101214-appb-000005
则根据表3,表4和表5,SL SPS和CG/DG实际上通过该第一指示信息中的标识和第二指示信息中的标识建立了对应关系,该SL SPS和CG/DG之间的对应关系可以是一对多的关系,即终端设备只能使用与某个SL SPS(或者SL SPS index)具有对应关系的UL CG/DG上报该SL SPS的确认信息;一种可能的该SL SPS和CG/DG之间的对应关系可以如表6所示:
表6:
Figure PCTCN2019101214-appb-000006
终端设备可以根据表6所示的SL SPS和CG/DG之间的对应关系,确定SL SPS确认信息可以在哪个或哪几个UL CG/DG上发送,网络设备则可以根据接收到该SL SPS确认信息的UL CG/DG来确定哪个SL SPS激活成功/去激活成功。
可选的,第二授权的配置/激活/去激活信息和第二指示信息也可以不是相互包含的关系,例如网络设备可以将该第一授权的配置/激活/去激活信息和该第二指示信息同时发送给终端设备,即该两条信息携带在不同消息中同时发送给终端设备,当然也可以不同时发送,本申请在此限定。
可选的,该第二授权的激活或去激活信息中也可以不需要包括第二指示信息,或者说,网络设备可以不需要发送该第二指示信息给终端设备,例如在Uu口上只支持一个激活的UL CG场景下,终端设备可以默认就是在当前激活的UL CG上发送一个或多个SL SPS确认信息,然后终端设备可以根据该第一指示信息确定具体在当前激活的UL CG上的哪一个传输机会 发送一个或多个SL SPS确认信息。
上述操作501和操作502的先后顺序可以交换,即本申请实施例不限定先发第一授权的激活/去激活信息还是先发第二授权的配置/激活/去激活信息,或者是先发第一指示信息还是先发第二指示信息。
上述操作501和502也可以合并,或者说网络设备可以将该第一授权的激活或去激活信息,该第一指示信息,该第二授权的激活或去激活信息,该第二指示信息,合并在一起发送,例如,该四条信息携带在一条消息中发送给终端设备。当然,该四条信息也可以携带在不同消息中同时发送给终端设备,本申请对此不限定。
操作503:终端设备向网络设备发送第一信息,该第一信息用于指示该第一授权激活成功或者去激活成功。
该终端设备可以根据操作501和/或操作502中获得的SL SPS和CG(或者UL CG传输机会上)/DG之间的对应关系,在与该第一SL SPS对应的UL CG(或者对应的UL CG传输机会上)/DG上发送该第一信息。
终端设备接收到该第一SL SPS的激活/去激活信息,或者该终端设备成功接收或者解码针对第一SL SPS的激活/去激活信息,或者确认该第一SL SPS激活成功或者去激活成功后,该终端设备触发或者生成该第一信息,该终端设备向网络设备发送该第一信息;或者,该终端设备触发或者生成第二信息,该终端设备将该第二信息包含于第一信息中或者封装成第一信息,该终端设备向网络设备发送该第一信息。示例性的,如果该第二信息是MAC CE或者MAC SDU,该第一信息为MAC PDU,该将第二信息封装成第一信息可以是给MAC CE或者MAC SDU加上MAC子头,封装成MAC PDU。
该第一信息可以为RRC消息,或者为MAC CE,或者是物理(physical,PHY)消息,或者传输块,本申请在此不限定。
