具体实施方式
首先对本申请实施例涉及的部分关键术语进行说明。
(1)、终端设备,也称为用户设备(user equipment,UE),是一种向用户提供数据连通性的设备,例如,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备、移动台(mobile station,MS)或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备等,以及经接入网与一个或多个核心网进行通信的移动终端;又例如,所述终端设备可以为手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、销售终端(point of sales,POS)、车载电脑等。
(2)、接入设备,可以是基站(base station,BS),是为终端设备提供无线接入服务的设备。其中,包括但不限于: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)、接入点(access point,AP)、无线接入点(wireless fidelity access point,WiFi AP)、全球微波互联接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access,WiMAX)BS等。
(3)主收发机(main radio,MR)
主收发机可以是主无线电接口,终端设备中的主收发机主要用于与接入设备进行交互通信,例如,获取核心网设备通过接入设备下发的下行数据,以及接收其他网络设备发来 的结构复杂的消息等,以及向接入设备发送数据以及其它各种消息。
(4)、唤醒接收机(wake-up receiver,WUR)
为了实现在终端设备空闲时,高功率的主收发机的休眠,终端设备内部设置了低功耗接收机,即WUR,用于接收一些比较简单的信号。例如,处于激活状态的WUR在周期内接收接入设备发送的唤醒信号(wake-up signal,WUS),唤醒终端设备的主接口。
(5)、唤醒信号(wake-up signal,WUS)、带内WUS和带内WUS
本申请各个实施例中,唤醒信号为接入设备发送给终端设备的,用户据此唤醒终端设备的信号。以是否通过WUR唤醒,可以将唤醒信号分为两种,分别是带内WUS和带外WUS。如图1所示,带内WUS是接入设备的主收发机发送至终端设备的主收发机的WUS;带外WUS是接入设备的主收发机发送至终端设备的WUR的WUS。
可见,只有终端设备包括WUR时,接入设备才可以向其发送带外WUS。不包括WUR的终端设备只能接收带内WUS,即通过主收发机接收WUS。
(6)省电指示信息
本申请各个实施例中省电能力指示信息,也可以称为省电能力IE(information element),用于指示发送该省电能力指示信息的终端设备支持的WUS信号,也可以说,用于指示发送该省电能力指示信息的终端设备的省电能力。
(7)休眠模式
应理解,终端设备中包括多个功能模块,为降低终端设备的功耗,在终端设备空闲时,休眠模式规定了终端设备中那些模块/器件工作以及那些模块/器件不工作。其中,在一些场景中,休眠可以分为深度休眠(deep sleep)和普通休眠。应理解,器件处于深度休眠比普通休眠的功耗更低,普通休眠比无休眠的功耗更低。
其中,终端设备的省电能力可以与休眠模式相对应。例如,包括WUR的终端设备的休眠模式可以是主收发机进入深度休眠(如主收发机关闭,即无线调制解调器(modem)关闭,主收发机对应的射频(RF)模块关闭),WUR激活状态。又例如,不包括WUR的终端设备的休眠模式可以是主收发机进入普通休眠,如主收发机不关闭,但不进行PDCCH监听,仅监听带内WUS。
在本申请的一种可能的实现中,若以WUS信号进行划分,休眠模式可以分为带内休眠模式和带外休眠模式。其中,在带内休眠模式下,主收发机切换到普通休眠状态的具体表现可以为,主收发机的modem不进行PDCCH监听,仅监听WUS;又例如,在带外WUS休眠模式下,主收发机切换到深度休眠状态(具体表现可以为主收发机的电路关闭,不产生任何功耗),WUR工作,监听WUS。
如图2所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的架构图,该通信系统20可以包括接入设备210和至少一个终端设备。终端设备也称用户终端(user equipment,UE),例如通信系统20包括终端设备220、终端设备230。接入设备210可以包括收发机211,该收发机211用于与通信系统中的至少一个终端设备220进行信息交互。各个终端设备的省电能力可以相同或不同。例如,终端设备220包括主收发机221和唤醒接收机(wake-up receiver,WUR)222,该终端设备220支持带内唤醒信号(wake-up signal,WUS)和带外WUS;终 端设备230包括主发射机231,而不包括WUR,该终端支持带内WUS,不支持带外WUS。应理解,图2以终端设备220和终端设备230为例来说明,应理解,该通信系统20还可以包括其他终端设备,例如具备主收发机和WUR且仅支持带内WUS的终端设备,包括主收发机和WUR且带外WUS、带内WUS都不支持的终端设备,包括主收发机和WUR且仅支持带外WUS的终端设备,或者,包括主收发机但不支持带内WUS的终端设备等。
终端设备可以向接入设备发送省电指示信息,该省电指示信息用于指示终端设备支持的WUS。
在本申请实施例的一种实现中,接入设备210接收终端设备220发送的省电指示信息Q1,该省电指示信息Q1指示终端设备220支持带内WUS和带外WUS,接入设备210可以在该终端设备220处于空闲状态时,基于该省电指示信息Q1确定其休眠模式,向该终端设备220发送休眠信号S1,以使该终端设备220根据接收到的休眠信号S1进入该省电指示信息Q1对应的休眠模式,如关闭主收发机221,激活WUR处于激活;在接入设备210识别到该终端设备220需要有数据收发时,根据省电指示信息向该终端设备220的WUR222发送带外WUS,以唤醒该终端设备220的主收发机221。
在本申请实施例的一种实现中,接入设备210接收终端设备230发送的省电指示信息Q2,该省电指示信息Q1指示终端设备230支持带内WUS而不支持带外WUS,接入设备210可以基于该省电指示信息Q2在该终端设备230处于空闲状态时,向终端设备230的发送休眠信号S2,以使终端设备230根据接收到的休眠信号S2后,进入该省电指示信息Q2对应的休眠模式,如主收发机221进入深度睡眠,不检测PDCCH。
在一种应用场景中,接入设备210为GSM或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),还可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(evolved Node B,eNB或e-NodeB),还可以是NR中的基站(g-NodeB)终端设备220、230为手机、平板电脑等电子设备。
在另一种应用场景中,发送端设备210为WLAN中的接入点,接收端设备220为终端设备220、230为手机、平板电脑等电子设备。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、NR通信系统或全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)通信系统等,此处不作限定。
下面介绍本申请实施例涉及的降低终端功耗的方法。
本申请实施例中,提供一种自适应省电机制,终端设备可以向接入设备上报其省电能力,即支持的WUS,进而,接入设备可以基于终端设备的省电能力选择合适的休眠模式,以自适应降低终端设备的功耗。
如图3A所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种降低终端功耗的方法的流程示意图,该方法基于图2所示的通信系统20实现,该方法可以包括但不限于如下部分或全部步骤:
S302:终端设备向接入设备发送的省电指示信息,省电指示信息用于指示终端设备的省电能力,该省电能力具体可以是终端设备支持的唤醒信号(WUS)。
在一些实施例中,唤醒信号(wake-up signal,WUS)包括带内WUS和带内WUS,其中,带内WUS是接入设备的主收发机发送至终端设备的主收发机的WUS;带外WUS是接入设备的主收发机发送至终端设备的WUR的WUS。
在一些实施例中,终端设备的省电能力和省电指示信息的对应关系可以如表1所示:
Figure PCTCN2020116803-appb-000001
表1
应理解,上述对省电指示信息的编码方式仅仅示例性描述。当终端设备的省电能力可分为更多类型时,还可以采用4位二进制编码等,具体根据省电能力的种类而定。不限于表1,本申请还可以包括其他方式的用于指示其省电能力和省电指示信息。
终端设备向接入设备发送的省电指示信息可以包括但不限于如下四种实现方式:
实现方式一:
终端设备的省电指示信息可以通过无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)消息,如RRC建立请求消息,上报给接入设备。其中,RRC建立请求消息为终端设备与接入设备之间建立RRC连接的过程中终端设备发送给接入设备的用于向接入设备请求建立通信连接的消息。应理解,任一个终端设备接入一个接入设备时,即该终端设备与该接入设备之间进行通信时,两者之间会建立RRC连接,在终端设备与接入设备之间不再需要进行通信时,则释放该RRC连接。
实现方式二:
终端设备的省电指示信息可以通过物理层信令(也称为第一层(Layer 1,L1)信令),如物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)中承载的上行控制信息(Uplink Control Information,UCI),发送给接入设备。应理解,L1信令的发送周期或者信令周期通常为物理层帧的周期,因此L1信令通常用于实现一些动态的控制,以传递一些变化频繁的信息,在本申请实施例中用于传递省电指示信息,可以在终端的省电能力发生变化时,及时通知到接入设备。
实现方式三:
终端设备的省电指示信息可以捎带在物理上行共享信道(physical UL shared channel,PUSCH)承载的上行数据中,发送给接入设备。
实现方式四:
终端设备的省电指示信息可以使用第二层(Layer 2,L2)信令,如媒体访问控制(Media  Access Control,MAC)层信令(例如,MAC帧的帧头中的帧控制(Frame Control)字段中携带的信令、或MAC控制实体(Control Entity,MAC-CE)等),发送给接入设备。
需要说明的是,当通过上述信令/消息来传输终端设备的省电指示信息的情况下,该信令/消息的数据格式发生的变化,其包括用于指示省电指示信息的字段。
不限于上述四种实现方式,终端设备还可以通过其他实现方式将终端设备的省电指示信息发送至接入设备,对此不作限定。
S304:接入设备接收省电指示信息。
应理解,在接入设备接收到承载该省电指示信息的信息/信令后,可以解码该信息/信令,进而,得到省电指示信息,以确定该终端设备的省电能力。
S306:在终端设备空闲时,接入设备根据省电指示信息确定终端设备的休眠模式。
S308:接入设备向终端设备发送休眠信号,该休眠信号用于指示终端设备进入确定的休眠模式。
S310:终端设备接收休眠信号,根据休眠信号控制终端设备进入确定的休眠模式。
具体实现中,接入设备可以识别终端设备的是否处于空闲状态,例如,接入设备在未接收到核心网设备向终端设备发送的数据时,可以认为终端设备处于空闲状态,从而,根据省电指示信息确定终端设备的休眠模式,进一步地,接入设备可以执行S308。
在另一种实现中,不限于上述确定终端设备空闲状态的方式,接入设备还可以通过其他方式识别终端设备的空闲状态,本申请实施例不作限定。
在一些实施例中,接入设备可以根据其支持的WUS、省电指示信息(即终端设备支持的WUS)来确定终端设备的休眠模式。可选地,休眠模式可以包括带内WUS休眠模式和带外WUS休眠模式。
例如,接入设备支持带外WUS,终端设备支持带外WUS,则接入设备可以发送用于指示终端设备进入带外休眠模式的休眠信号,终端设备在接收到该休眠信号后,进入带外休眠模式,即终端设备关闭主收发机(即关闭modem,关闭主收发机对应的RF),开启WUR,通过WUR来监听带外WUS,以降低终端设备的功耗。其中,接入设备支持带外WUS包括两种情况,分别为接入设备支持带外WUS和带内WUS、接入设备支持带外WUS但不支持带内WUS;终端设备支持带外WUS包括两种情况,分别为终端设备支持带外WUS和带内WUS、终端设备支持带外WUS但不支持带内WUS。
又例如,接入设备只支持带内WUS或终端设备只支持带内WUS,则接入设备可以发送用于指示终端设备进入带内休眠模式的休眠信号,终端设备在接收到该休眠信号后,进入带内休眠模式,即终端设备主收发机不监听PDCCH,仅监听WUS,可以关闭部分RF,通过主收发机来监听带内WUS,以降低终端设备的功耗。可选地,包括WUR的终端设备关闭WUR。
在一些实施例中,接入设备支持带外WUS和带外WUS,省电指示信息与休眠模式相对应,接入设备可以通过省电指示信息与休眠模式的对应关系,来确定终端设备的省电指示信息对应的休眠模式。
在一些实施例中,接入设备支持带外WUS和带外WUS,接入设备还可以根据终端设备的业务类型和省电指示信息确定该终端设备的休眠模式,以使接入设备可以根据终端设 备的省电能力和业务需求来控制终端设备进入合适的休眠模式,从而在保证业务需求的基础上,降低终端设备的功耗。
例如,接入设备支持带外WUS和带外WUS,终端设备也支持带内WUS和带外WUS,接入设备还可以根据终端设备的业务类型来确定终端设备的休眠模式,例如,对于实时性要求高的业务和/或数据包间隔小于预设阈值的业务,接入设备可以向终端设备发送用于指示该终端设备进入带内休眠模式的休眠信号,以使得终端设备可以快速恢复数据通信连接。
如图3B所示,为本申请实施例提供的另一种降低终端功耗的方法的流程示意图,该方法除包括上述S302-S310外,还可包括如下步骤:
S312:在终端设备需要唤醒时,接入设备根据省电指示信息唤醒终端设备。
具体的S321的一种实现方式可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
S3121:在终端设备需要唤醒时,接入设备向终端设备发送确定的休眠模式对应的唤醒信号。
S3122:终端设备接收该唤醒信号,并根据该唤醒信号,唤醒终端设备。
其中,接入设备可以识别终端设备是否需要唤醒,例如,当接入设备接收到核心网设备发送给终端设备的数据或者接收到其他终端发送的呼叫请求时,可以识别该终端设备需要唤醒;又例如,当接入设备接收到核心网设备发送给终端设备的数据且该数据的业务类型为实时性要求较高的业务和/或数据包间隔小于预设阈值的业务,则识别为终端设备需要唤醒。不限于上述终端设备是否需要唤醒的判断方法,还可以包括其他判断方法,此处不再赘述。
例如,在终端设备处于带外休眠模式时,接入设备向终端设备的WUR发送带外WUS,终端设备通过WUR监听到带外WUS后,唤醒终端设备的主收发机。
又例如,在终端设备处于带内休眠模式时,接入设备向终端设备的发送带内WUS,终端设备通过主收发机监听到带内WUS后,唤醒终端设备的主收发机的其他功能模块。
在一些实施例中,终端设备的省电能力可能发生变化,终端设备可以实时识别终端设备的省电能力。该方法在步骤S302之前或在终端设备进入休眠模式之后被唤醒之前,还可以包括如下步骤:
S301:在终端设备识别到其省电能力变化后,终端设备向接入设备发送变化后的省电指示信息。变化后的省电指示信息用于指示终端设备在其省电能力变化后可支持的WUS。
其中,终端设备在检测到WUR发送故障时,其省电能力发生变化,其不再支持带外WUS;终端设备在当前剩余电量小于预设电量(比如20%、15%等)或终端设备进入到超级省电模式,则终端设备确定其省电能力发生变化,例如仅支持带外WUS。通常,在终端设备可以设置其剩余电量小于预设电量时或终端设备进入超级省电模式时,终端设备可以改变其省电能力,以使接入设备可以控制其进入功耗更少的休眠模式,例如,其省电能力变为只支持带外WUS,以使接入设备控制终端设备进入到带外休眠模式,进一步降低终端设备的功耗。
应理解,接入设备在接收到变化后的省电指示信息后,在终端设备处于休眠模式的情况下,接入设备可以判断变化后的省电指示信息对应的休眠模式与终端设备正在处于的休眠模式是否一致,若不一致,则接入设备向终端设备发送用于指示其进入变化后的省电指 示信息对应的休眠模式的休眠信号,以使终端设备进入变化后的省电指示信息对应的休眠模式的休眠信号,以降低终端设备的功耗。
