Description

通信方法及装置
本申请要求于2019年11月19日提交国家知识产权局、申请号为201911136665.4、申请名称为“通信方法及装置”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及装置。
背景技术
目前,组播组内的第一终端和第二终端根据允许的最大通信距离(range)完成组播通信。具体地,第一终端需要在控制信道上向各第二终端发送该第一终端的位置信息,以及服务质量(quality of service,QoS)需求参数,并在控制信道对应的数据信道上向各第二终端发送组播业务数据包。相应地,第二终端可以在解析控制信道之后,根据该第二终端的位置信息判断其与第一终端之间的距离值是否小于最大通信距离。若是,则第二终端在接收到组播业务数据包后,向第一终端发送反馈信息。第一终端根据反馈信息,调整QoS需求参数。
然而,倘若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于最大通信距离,则第二终端不会向第一终端发送任何反馈信息。也就是说,在此场景下,第一终端无法获知其与最大通信距离之外的接收终端之间的组播通信状态,当然也就无法据此调整QoS需求参数,以保证组播通信的可靠性,从而导致组播通信的质量较差。

下面结合图3对通信装置300的各个构成部件进行具体的介绍:
处理器301是通信装置300的控制中心,可以是一个处理器,也可以是多个处理元件的统称。例如,处理器301是一个或多个中央处理器(central processing unit,CPU),也可以是特定集成电路(application specific integrated circuit,ASIC),或者是被配置成实施本申请实施例的一个或多个集成电路,例如:一个或多个微处理器(digital signal processor,DSP),或,一个或者多个现场可编程门阵列(field programmable gate array,FPGA)。
其中,处理器301可以通过运行或执行存储在存储器302内的软件程序,以及调 用存储在存储器302内的数据,执行通信装置300的各种功能。例如,通信装置300可以执行下述图4或图5中第一终端的功能。又例如,通信装置300也可以执行下述图4或图5中第二终端的功能。再例如,通信装置300还可以执行下述图6中第三终端的功能。
在具体的实现中,作为一种实施例,处理器301可以包括一个或多个CPU,例如图3中所示的CPU0和CPU1。
在具体实现中,作为一种实施例,通信装置300也可以包括多个处理器,例如图3中所示的处理器301和处理器304。这些处理器中的每一个可以是一个单核处理器(single-CPU),也可以是一个多核处理器(multi-CPU)。这里的处理器可以指一个或多个通信设备、电路、和/或用于处理数据(例如计算机程序指令)的处理核。

需要说明的是,图3中示出的通信装置300的结构并不构成对该通信装置的限定,实际的通信装置可以包括比图示更多或更少的部件,或者组合某些部件,或者不同的部件布置。
下面将结合图4-图6对本申请实施例提供的通信方法进行具体阐述。
图4为本申请实施例提供的通信方法的流程示意图一。该通信方法可以适用于图1或如2所示的组播组中的不同终端之间的组播通信。
下面以图1所示的第一终端和第二终端为例,其中,第一终端可以是组播组中的发送终端,第二终端为该组播组中的任意一个接收终端,详细说明图4所示的通信方法。如图4所示,该通信方法包括如下S401-S404:
S401,第二终端发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
相应地,第一终端接收组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
其中,第一QoS状态信息包括第一距离指示信息。
其中,第一距离指示信息可以用于确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于该组播组内组播通信的第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值。第一距离指示信息可以包括如下一项或多项:超距离指示、第二终端的位置信息、第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值。
其中,第一QoS需求信息为该组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息,可以用于指示该组播组内进行组播通信的QoS需求,该QoS需求可以称之为第一QoS需求。
其中,第一通信距离阈值用于表征该第一QoS需求对应的该组播组内发送终端与接收终端之间的最大通信距离。例如,当该组播组内发送终端A与接收终端B之间的距离大于该第一通信距离阈值时,接收终端B从发送终端A接收到的组播业务数据可能无法满足该第一QoS需求,具体地,无法满足该第一QoS需求中的部分需求或全部需求。
其中,超距离指示用于指示第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一通信距离阈值。
其中,第二终端的位置信息可以用于指示第二终端所处的位置。该位置信息可以是地理坐标,例如,经纬度、通过全球卫星导航系统(global navigation satellite system,GNSS)获取的定位值;也可以是第二终端所处的小区、基站、服务区、跟踪区,相应地,该位置信息可以为小区标识(cell identifier)、基站标识(base station identifier)、服务区标识(service area identifier,SAI)、或跟踪区标识(tracking area identifier,TAI)等。
可选地,在网络覆盖区域,该第二终端的位置信息也可以先上报给网络,如通过位置更新流程将该终端的位置信息上报给网络,然后由网络下发给组播组内的所有终端。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例提及的其它任一终端的位置信息均可以参考该第二终端的位置信息的相关描述,不再赘述。
其中,步骤S401可以替换为:当第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值时,第二终端向第一终端发送组播通信的第一服务质量QoS状态信息。
示例性地,对于组播组内的任一接收终端,如第二终端,可以依据该第一QoS需求对应的该组播组内组播通信的最大通信距离,例如,第一通信距离阈值,确定其反馈策略。如图1所示,若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值小于第一通信距离阈值,则第二终端向第一终端发送反馈信息,如混合自动重传请求确认消息(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest Acknowledgement,HARQ ACK)或混合自动重传请求否定消息(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest Negative Acknowledgement,HARQ NACK),否则第二终端向第一终端发送组播通信的第一距离指示信息。
S402,第一终端根据第一距离指示信息,确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值。
在第一种可能的实现方式中,假设步骤S401中第二终端向第一终端发送第二终端的位置信息,那么步骤S402中第一终端根据自身的位置信息和第二终端的位置信息, 确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值,并确定该距离值大于第一通信距离阈值。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,假设步骤S401中第二终端向第一终端发送第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值,那么步骤S402中第一终端确定该距离值是否大于第一通信距离阈值。
其中,上述距离值可以是由第二终端根据自身的位置信息和第一终端的位置信息确定的。第一终端可以向第二终端发送第一终端的位置信息,以便第二终端确定该距离值。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,假设步骤S401中第二终端向第一终端发送超距离指示,那么步骤S402可以根据超距离指示,获知第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一通信距离阈值。
具体的,第二终端在根据其自身的位置信息和第一终端的位置信息确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值之后,可以不向第一终端发送该距离值,而是判断该距离值是否大于组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值。若是,则第二终端向第一终端发送超距离指示。例如,超距离指示可以是1比特(bit)的指示信息。当然,超距离指示也可以是其他形式的指示信息,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
需要指出的是,当采用S402中的第三种可能的实现方式时,步骤S402可以省略,即S402为可选步骤。
需要说明的是,假设第一终端没有向第二终端发送第一终端的位置信息,那么第二终端可以根据其接收到的第一终端的信号强度(例如,接收功率)确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值。其中,第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值可以采用如下公式获得:
d=P α                  (公式一)。
其中,d为第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值(单位:米),P为第二终端接收到的第一终端的信号强度(单位:毫瓦),α为根据不同通信场景设置的大于0的路径损耗参数,如α可以为4。
此外,上述第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值,可以是数值,也可以与该数值一一对应的距离索引或距离等级,还可以是与该距离值一一对应的信道质量索引或等级、信号强度索引或等级、信号质量索引或等级等用于表示信道质量、信号强度、信号质量的数值或索引。其中,信道质量、信号强度、信号质量等可以由终端测量得到。本申请实施例对于第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值的具体实现形式,不做任何限定。
S403,第一终端发送组播通信的第二QoS需求信息。
其中,第二QoS需求信息可以用于更新该组播组内组播通信的QoS需求。该第二QoS需求信息可以用于指示第二QoS需求。
其中,第二QoS需求信息包括第二通信距离阈值,第二通信距离阈值大于第一通信距离阈值。其中,第二通信距离阈值用于表征该第二QoS需求对应的该组播组内发送终端与接收终端之间的最大通信距离。
此外,该第二通信距离阈值小于该组播组内组播通信的最大允许通信距离值或最大支持通信距离值。其中,当该组播组内发送终端A与接收终端B之间的距离大于该最大允许通信距离值或最大支持通信距离值时,发送终端A与接收终端B之间无法进 行该组播组内的组播通信。此外,该最大允许通信距离值或最大支持通信距离值可以由网络侧设备(例如,应用服务器)发送给该发送终端。
需要说明的是,组播组内的发送终端可以对QoS需求中的该组播组内组播通信的最大通信距离进行动态调整,该最大通信距离可以设置为第一通信距离阈值或第二通信距离阈值。具体的,发送终端可以通过组播业务数据包将组播通信的第二QoS需求信息发送给该组播组内的接收终端。
需要指出的是,当S402中采用的第三种可能的实现方式时,步骤S402可以省略,即S402为可选步骤,相应地,步骤S403可以替换为:第一终端根据超距离指示,发送组播通信的第二QoS需求信息。
S404,第二终端接收来自第一终端的组播通信的第二QoS需求信息,并根据该第二QoS需求信息更新该组播组内组播通信的QoS需求。
示例性地,如图1所示,假定第一通信距离阈值为图中实线所对应的距离阈值,第二通信距离阈值为图中虚线所对应的距离阈值,即第二通信距离阈值大于第一通信距离阈值。倘若第二终端位于图1所示的实线所对应的区域之外,即第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一通信距离阈值,则第一通信距离阈值已经不能满足第二终端对于该组播组内组播通信的距离要求。第二终端在发送给第一终端的第一QoS状态信息中携带第一距离指示信息,相应地,第一终端可以根据第一距离指示信息将第一通信距离阈值调整为(图1中虚线所对应的)第二通信距离阈值,并将该第二通信距离阈值发送给第二终端,以便第二终端根据第二通信距离阈值,实现该组播组内的组播通信。
进一步地,对于组播组内的任一接收终端,如第二终端,可以依据第二QoS需求对应的该组播组内组播通信的最大通信距离,例如,第二通信距离阈值,确定其反馈策略。如图1所示,若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值小于第二通信距离阈值,则第二终端向第一终端发送反馈信息,如HARQ ACK或HARQ NACK,否则第二终端向第一终端发送距离指示信息,该距离指示信息可以用于确定第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第二通信距离阈值。
需要说明的是,第二终端实际使用的通信距离阈值也可以为多个。例如,第二QoS需求信息可以包括多个通信距离阈值,如第一通信距离阈值和第二通信距离阈值,或者虽然第二QoS需求信息只包括一个通信距离阈值,如第二通信距离阈值,但是第二终端同时使用第二QoS需求信息中的第二通信距离阈值和第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,来确定组播组内位于不同区域的接收终端的反馈策略。假定第一通信距离阈值和第二通信距离阈值仍然为图1所示的第一通信距离阈值和第二通信距离阈值,则对于组播组内与第一终端之间的距离值小于第一通信距离阈值的接收终端,可以不发送任何反馈信息,对于组播组内与第一终端之间的距离值大于第一通信距离阈值,且小于第二通信距离阈值的接收终端,可以向第一终端发送HARQ ACK或HARQ NACK,对于组播组内与第一终端之间的距离值大于第二通信距离阈值的接收终端,可以向第一终端发送组播通信的第一距离指示信息。
在现有技术中,当第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息中的最大通信距离时,第二终端不会向第一终端反馈任何信息。在此情 况下,第一终端无法根据当前的组播通信状态调整QoS需求信息,从而导致组播通信的可靠性较差。而在本申请实施例中,当第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于组播组内组播通信QoS需求信息中的最大通信距离时,第二终端能够向第一终端发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息,使得第一终端能够根据调整后的第二通信距离阈值更新组播通信的QoS需求参数,从而实现组播通信的QoS需求的适应性调整,可以达到调整组播通信质量的目的,能够提高组播通信的可靠性。
可选地,在上述实施例的一种可能的设计方法中,第二QoS需求信息还可以包括第二QoS需求参数,第二QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求低于第一QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求。其中,第二QoS需求参数是根据当前组播通信的QoS状态做出调整后的QoS需求,可以满足当前组播通信的实际通信需求,从而进一步提高组播通信的可靠性。例如,第一QoS需求参数包括第一MCS(Modulation and Coding Scheme,调制和编码方案),且第一MCS对应的码率较高,由于当前组播通信的新到质量较差,导致误码率较高而不能正常通信。在此情况下,第一终端可以将码率较高的第一MCS调整为码率较低的第二MCS,从而确保第一终端与第二终端可以较低码率继续通信,从而进一步提高组播通信的可靠性。
需要说明的是,第一通信距离阈值可以对应第一QoS需求参数,第二通信距离阈值可以对应第二QoS需求参数。该第一QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求高于该第二QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求。
例如,第一终端可以接收来自网络侧设备(例如,应用服务器)的对应关系,该对应关系可以为距离阈值与QoS需求参数之间的对应关系。具体地,该对应关系可以包括第一通信距离阈值与第一QoS需求参数之间的对应关系,以及第二通信距离阈值与第二QoS需求参数之间的对应关系。
例如,第一通信距离阈值为500米,其对应的第一QoS需求参数集合{第一丢包率,第一时延,第一带宽}可以为:{0.01%,50ms,40MHz}。相应地,第二通信距离阈值阈值1000米,第二QoS需求参数集合{第二丢包率,第二时延,第二带宽}可以为{1%,100ms,20MHz}。其中,第二丢包率大于第一丢包率,第二时延大于第一时延,第二带宽小于第一带宽。

示例性地,第一QoS需求参数包括的第一QoS需求参数集合{第一丢包率,第一时延,第一带宽}可以为:{0.01%,50ms,40MHz},第二QoS需求参数包括的第二QoS需求参数集合{第二丢包率,第二时延,第二带宽}可以为{1%,100ms,20MHz},且第二丢包率大于第一丢包率,第二时延大于第一时延,第二带宽小于第一带宽。其中,ms为毫秒(milisecond),MHz为兆赫兹(mega herts)。若第二终端检测到如下一项或 多项:实际丢包率小于第一丢包率、实际时延小于第一时延、实际带宽小于第一带宽,则第一终端在接收到第二终端发送的组播通信的第一QoS状态信息包括第二终端的上述检测结果中的一项或多项,则第一终端可以将第一QoS需求参数集合调整为第二QoS需求参数。其中,实际丢包率大于第二丢包率、实际时延大于第二时延、实际带宽小于第二带宽。
可选地,在上述实施例的一种可能的设计方法中,第一QoS需求信息还包括第一QoS需求参数,第一QoS状态信息还可以包括第一QoS需求参数中未被满足的一项或多项QoS需求参数。其中,第一QoS需求参数可以包括:第一PC5口服务质量标识PC5 5G服务质量标识(PC5 5G QoS identifier,PQI)、第一PC5口流比特速率、当前组播业务所要求的第一QoS需求参数集合,如第一时延、第一丢包率、第一带宽等。
可选地,在上述实施例的一种可能的设计方法中,第一终端可以包括第一应用层、第一V2X层和第一接入层,上述S401中第一终端接收组播通信的第一服务质量QoS状态信息可以包括:第一应用层接收来自应用服务器的组播通信的第一QoS状态信息;或者,第一应用层经由第一V2X层和第一接入层,接收来自第二终端的组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
相应地,第二终端可以包括第二应用层、第二V2X层和第二接入层,上述S401中,第二终端发送组播通信的第一服务质量QoS状态信息可以包括:第二应用层向应用服务器,如AF网元发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息;或者,第二应用层经由第二V2X层和第二接入层,向第一终端发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。具体实现可以参考图5所示的通信方法,此处不再赘述。
可选地,在上述实施例的一种可能的设计方法中,第一终端包括第一应用层、第一V2X层和第一接入层,第二终端包括第二应用层、第二V2X层和第二接入层,上述S403中第一终端发送组播通信的第二QoS需求信息,可以包括如下一项或多项:第一应用层经由第一V2X层,向第一接入层发送组播通信的第二QoS需求信息;第一应用层经由第一V2X层和第一接入层,向第二终端发送组播通信的第二QoS需求信息。相应地,上述S404中,第二终端接收组播通信的第二QoS需求信息,可以包括:第二应用层经由第二V2X层和第二接入层,接收来自第二终端的组播通信的第二QoS需求信息。具体实现可以参考下述图5所示的通信方法,此处不再赘述。

相应地,第二终端接收来自第一终端的组播通信的第一QoS需求信息。
步骤二,第一终端通过组播信道发送组播业务数据包。
相应地,第二终端接收来自第一终端的组播业务数据包。
其中,组播信道指的是用于传输该组播组的组播业务数据的无线资源,例如,物理侧行共享信道(physical sidelink shared channel,PSSCH)。
示例性地,在基于PC5的车辆间直接通信过程中,第一终端可以使用网络设备为其分配的无线资源或由第一终端从网络设备预配置的无线资源池中选择的资源进行组 播通信。其中,网络设备可以为接入网网元(如基站),也可以为核心网网元,如上述图2中的策略与控制功能(policy control funtion,PCF)网元、应用功能(application function,AF)网元等。
具体地,在使用PC5接口进行组播通信时,第一终端可以通过PSSCH发送组播业务数据包,而在与PSSCH相关联的物理侧行控制信道(physical sidelink control channel,PSCCH)上发送用于接收和解码PSSCH的侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)。该SCI可以包括上述第一QoS需求信息或第二QoS需求信息。此外,SCI还可以包括如下一项或多项:承载组播业务数据包的PSSCH无线资源信息、第一终端的位置信息等。进一步地,第二终端可以在物理侧行链路反馈信道(physical sidelink feedback channel,PSFCH)上发送反馈信息,该反馈信息可以用于指示是否接收到PSSCH承载的组播业务数据包,或者第一QoS状态信息。例如,该反馈信息可以是混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)的肯定应答(acknowledgement,ACK)或否定应答(negative acknowledgement,NACK)。第一终端可以根据该反馈信息调整该组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息,以满足第一终端的组播业务所要求的QoS需求。
可选地,在上述实施例的一种实施例场景中,在执行S401-S404之后,还包括实现第一终端与第二终端之间的组播通信,即图4所示的通信方法还可以包括如下步骤三:
步骤三,第一终端向第二终端发送组播业务数据包。
相应地,第二终端接收来自第一终端的组播业务数据包。
具体实现可以参考上述步骤二的相关内容,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,上述任一终端可以包括应用层、V2X层和接入层。示例性地,第一终端包括第一应用层、第一V2X层和第一接入层,第二终端包括第二应用层、第二V2X层和第二接入层。下面将结合终端中的协议层,对图4所示的通信方法作进一步描述。
下面以图1中所示的第一终端和第二终端各自包括应用层、V2X层和接入层为例,对图4所示的通信方法进行详细说明,具体参见图5所示的通信方法。
图5为本申请实施例提供的通信方法的流程示意图二。该通信方法为图4所示的通信方法在终端的协议层粒度上的一个具体示例。如图5所示,该通信方法包括如下步骤:
S501A,第一应用层向第一V2X层发送组播通信的第一QoS需求信息。
相应地,第一V2X层接收来自第一应用层的组播通信的第一QoS需求信息。
其中,第一QoS需求信息的内容可以参考图4所示实施例中的相关描述,此处不再赘述。
可选地,除第一QoS需求信息外,第一应用层还可以像第一V2X层发送组播组信息。相应地,第一V2X层接收来自第一应用层的组播组信息。
其中,组播组信息可以包括以下至少一项:组播组标识、组成员标识、组成员数量、目的层2标识(layer-2 identifier,L2标识)等。其中,组播组标识用于区分不同的组播组,可以包括该组播组的组标识(group identifier)、互联网协议地址、MAC地 址等。组成员标识用于区分该组播组内的不同终端,可以包括组播组内任一终端的用户名、IP地址、MAC地址等。组成员数量是指该组播组包含的成员的数量,通常为大于或等于3的正整数。目的层2标识是指该组播组内接收终端的MAC地址。需要说明的是,S501A为可选步骤,即第一应用层也可以不向第一V2X层发送组播组信息和第一QoS需求信息。在此情况下,步骤S501A可以替换为:第一V2X层根据来自第一应用层的组播业务数据包中携带的V2X应用或服务类型,获得组播组信息和第一QoS需求信息。
其中,V2X应用或服务类型可以为:服务提供者标识(provider service identifier,PSID)或智能运输系统应用标识(intelligent transport system application identifier,ITS-AID)或其他可以指示具体V2X应用或服务类型的信息。
示例性地,第一V2X层可以根据组播业务数据包中携带的V2X应用或服务类型,查询对应关系,获得组播组信息和第一QoS需求信息。上述对应关系可以包括如下一项或多项:V2X应用或服务类型与组播组信息中的目的L2标识的对应关系、V2X应用或服务类型与QoS需求参数的对应关系、V2X应用或服务类型与最大通信距离的对应关系。其中,同一V2X应用或服务类型对应的QoS需求参数和最大通信距离所组成的参数集合,可以是上述第一QoS需求信息或第二QoS需求信息。
在本申请实施例中,第一终端可以通过如下方式获取上述对应关系:
方式一,第一终端在向无线网络申请使用PC5V2X通信时,无线网络中的PCF网元或AF网元可以将用于PC5通信的策略和参数(该参数包括上述对应关系,还可以包括允许使用PC5通信的地理位置信息以及频段信息等)发送给第一终端。
具体地,如图2所示,PCF网元可以通过接入与移动性管理功能(access and mobility management function,AMF)网元的N1接口将这些策略和参数发送给第一终端。
方式二,AF网元将用于PC5通信的策略和参数(该参数包括上述对应关系,还可以包括允许使用PC5通信的地理位置信息以及频段信息等)发送给统一数据存储(unified data repository,UDR)网元,UDR网元存储该策略和参数。然后PCF网元可以从UDR网元中读取该策略和参数,并通过AMF网元的N1接口发送给第一终端。
方式三,AF网元直接通过V1接口,将用于PC5通信的策略和参数(该参数包括上述对应关系,还可以包括允许使用PC5通信的地理位置信息以及频段信息等)发送给第一终端。
S502A,第一V2X层向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS需求信息。
相应地,第一接入层接收来自第一V2X层的组播通信的第一QoS需求信息。
在一种可能的设计方法中,第一V2X层可以直接将第一QoS需求信息下发给第一接入层。
在另一种可能的设计方法中,第一应用层也可以根据组播组信息,如应用或服务类型,在对应关系中查询第一QoS需求信息的具体内容,如对应的QoS需求参数、最大通信距离阈值等,以及组播组信息,如组播通信的目的L2标识,并下发给第一应用层。具体查询方法可以参考S501A中的相关描述,此处不再赘述。
S501B,第二应用层向第二V2X层发送组播组信息。
相应地,第二V2X层接收来自第二应用层的组播组信息。
S502B,第二V2X层向第二接入层发送组播组信息。
相应地,第二接入层接收来自第二V2X层的组播组信息。
作为组播业务数据包的接收终端的第二终端,与作为组播业务数据包的发送终端的第一终端不同,第二终端的应用层经由其V2X层向其接入层发送上述组播组信息。
需要指出的是,第一QoS需求信息可由第二接入层通过解析承载组播业务数据包的PSSCH对应的PSCCH承载的SCI信息获取,具体可以参考现有实现方式,此处不再赘述。
S503,第一接入层向第二接入层发送组播业务数据包。
示例性地,第一接入层根据QoS需求信息中的PQI值使用网络或设备预设的调制与编码方案对数据包进行编码并发送。
相应地,第二接入层接收来自第一接入层的组播业务数据包。
示例性地,第二接入层可以根据QoS需求信息中的PQI值解析PSCCH携带的调制与编码方案,并根据该调制与编码方案对数据包进行解调和译码,从而获取数据包的内容。
S504,第二接入层向第一接入层发送HARQ ACK或HARQ NACK。
相应地,第一接入层接收来自第二接入层的HARQ ACK或HARQ NACK。
具体地,S504可以包括:第二接入层可以判断第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值是否大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,并根据判断结果确定向第一接入层发送反馈信息。例如,若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值小于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,且解析组播业务数据包失败,则第二接入层可以向第一接入层发送HARQ NACK。若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,且解析组播业务数据包成功,则第二接入层可以向第一接入层发送HARQ ACK。
应理解,第二接入层采用的反馈机制,如反馈HARQ ACK,还是反馈HARQ NACK,可以预先设定,本申请实施例对此不做任何限定。
S505,第二接入层向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
相应地,第一接入层接收组播通信的第一QoS状态信息,并经由第一V2X层,向第一应用层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
在一个示例中,S505中的第二接入层向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息可以包括:若第二接入层判断第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,则向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
需要说明的是,即使第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,第二接入层仍然有可能成功解析组播业务数据包。此外,即使第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值小于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,第二接入层也有可能解析组播业务数据包失败。因此,在另一个示例中,步骤S505中的第二接入层向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息可以包括:若第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,且解析组播业务数据包失败,则第二接入层向第一接入层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息;否则不发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。在该示例中将上述距离判断结果和组播业务数 据包解析结果结合起来,可以进一步提高第一终端调整组播通信的QoS需求的准确性。
S506,第二接入层经由第二V2X层向第二应用层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息,第二应用层向第一应用层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
具体地,S506中第二接入层向第二V2X层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息可以包括:若第二接入层判断第一终端与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一QoS需求信息中的第一通信距离阈值,则向第二V2X层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。判断方法具体可以参考图4所示的实施例,此处不再赘述。
具体地,S506中第二应用层向第一应用层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息可以包括:第二应用层通过V1接口向应用服务器或AF网元发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息,然后应用服务器(可以为第三方部署的应用服务器,或者运营商部署的AF网元)通过UPF网元、下一代(无线)接入网(next generation(radio)access network,NG-(R)AN)网元向第一应用层发送组播通信的第一QoS状态信息。
在执行上述S505或S506之后,上述方法还可以包括:第一应用层生成第二QoS需求信息。具体可以参考图4所示实施例中的相关内容,此处不再赘述。
然后,第一应用层可以再次执行上述S501A、S502A和S503,将第二QoS需求信息经由第一V2X层下发给第一接入层,然后由第一接入层通过组播业务数据包发送给第二接入层,从而达到动态调整组播通信质量的目的。
基于图4或图5所示的通信方法,第一终端能够根据第二终端提供的第一距离指示信息,获知其与第二终端之间的距离值大于第一通信距离阈值,并据此将组播组内组播通信的最大通信距离由第一通信距离阈值调整为第二通信距离阈值,其中,第二通信距离阈值大于第一通信距离阈值,能够解决由于无法获取实际距离大于组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息中的最大通信距离的终端之间的组播通信状态,所导致的无法调整组播通信的QoS需求信息的问题,能够提高组播通信的可靠性。
需要说明的是,在图4或图5所示的通信方法中,均是以第一应用层作为组播通信的QoS需求信息的调整主体为例进行说明的。在另一种可能的设计方法中,也可以第一V2X层作为组播通信的QoS需求信息的调整主体。下面具体说明。
图6为本申请实施例提供的通信方法的流程示意图三。该通信方法可以适用于图1或2所示的组播组中的任一终端,如图1中的第三终端,该任一终端与该组播组内的其他终端,如第四终端(图1中未示出)之间存在组播通信。该任一终端包括应用层、V2X层和接入层,如第三终端包括第三应用层、第三V2X层和第三接入层。下面以图1所示的第三终端为例,详细说明图6所示的通信方法。
如图6所示,该通信方法包括如下步骤:
S601,第三应用层向第三V2X层发送组播组内组播通信的至少两组候选QoS需求信息。相应地,第三V2X层接收来自第三应用层的组播组内组播通信的至少两组候选QoS需求信息。
其中,每组候选QoS需求信息的内容可以参考上述第一QoS需求信息的内容,此处不再赘述。
S602,第三V2X层根据至少两组候选QoS需求信息,向第三接入层发送组播通信的第三QoS需求信息。相应地,第三接入层接收来自第三V2X层的组播通信的第 三QoS需求信息。
其中,第三QoS需求信息包括第三通信距离阈值。
可选地,第三QoS需求信息还可以包括第三QoS需求参数。示例性地,第三QoS需求参数可以包括如下一项或多项:第三PC5口服务质量标识PC5 5G服务质量标识(PC5 5G QoS identifier,PQI)、第三PC5口流比特速率、当前组播业务所要求的第三QoS需求参数集合,如第三时延、第三丢包率、第三带宽等。
在一种可能的设计方法中,图6所示的通信方法还可以包括:第三V2X层接收来自第三应用层的选择指示。其中,选择指示用于指示第三V2X层从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择出一组QoS需求信息。也就是说,第三应用层可以显式地指示第三V2X层从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择一组作为第三QoS需求信息,并下发给第三接入层。
在另一种可能的设计方法中,第三应用层也可以不下发该选择指示。也就是说,倘若第三应用层下发给第三V2X层的候选QoS需求信息为多组,则可以视为第三应用层已经下发了该选择指示。也就是说,第三应用层也可以使用至少两组候选QoS需求信息本身隐式地指示第三V2X层从至少两组候选QoS中选择一组作为第三QoS需求信息,并下发给第三接入层。
S603,第三接入层基于第三QoS需求信息,实现与第四终端之间的组播通信。
在一种可能的设计方法中,第三终端可以为发送终端,第四终端为接收终端,第三QoS需求信息用于第三接入层向第四终端发送组播业务数据包,并接收来自第四终端的反馈信息或第二服务质量QoS状态信息。
或者,在另一种可能的设计方法中,第三终端也可以为接收终端,第四终端为发送终端,第三QoS需求信息用于第三接入层接收来自第四终端的组播业务数据包,并向第四终端发送反馈信息或第二服务质量QoS状态信息。
也就是说,第三终端可以为组播组内的发送终端,也可以为组播组内的接收终端,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
关于组播通信的具体实现方式,可以参考图4所示的方法实施例的相关内容,此处不再赘述。
S604,第三接入层向第三V2X层发送组播通信的第二QoS状态信息。相应地,第三V2X层接收来自第三接入层的组播通信的第二QoS状态信息。
在一种可能的设计方法中,第三终端可以为发送终端,第四终端为接收终端,第二QoS状态信息可以是第三接入层接收的、来自第四终端的接入层的QoS状态信息。
或者,在另一种可能的设计方法中,第三终端也可以为接收终端,第四终端为发送终端,第二QoS状态信息也可以是第三接入层测量得到的QoS状态信息。
其中,第二QoS状态信息包括第二距离指示信息,第二距离指示信息用于确定第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值大于第三通信距离阈值。示例性地,第二距离指示信息可以包括如下一项或多项:超距离指示、第四终端的位置信息、第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值。其中,超距离指示用于指示第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值大于第三通信距离阈值。关于第二距离指示信息的具体内容,可以参考上述第一距离指示信息,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,倘若第二距离指示信息不包括超距离指示,例如只包括第四终端的位置信息或者第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值,图6所示的通信方法还可以包括S605:
S605,第三V2X层根据第二距离指示信息,确定第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值大于第三通信距离阈值。
示例性地,第三V2X层可以判断第二距离指示信息中的第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值是否大于第三通信距离阈值,进而得知第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值大于第三通信距离阈值。或者,第三V2X层也可以根据第二距离指示信息中的第四终端的位置信息,并结合第三终端的位置信息计算第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值,然后判断该距离值是否大于第三通信距离,进而得知该距离值大于第三通信距离阈值。
也就是说,在图6所示的通信方法中,根据第二距离指示信息,确定第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值大于第三通信距离阈值这一操作可以由第四终端执行并将判断结果(超距离指示)通知第三终端,也可以由第三终端根据第四终端提供的第三终端与第四终端之间的距离值或者第四终端的位置信息自行判断,即S605可以视为可选步骤。
S606,第三V2X层从至少两组QoS需求信息中选择第四QoS需求信息。
其中,第四QoS需求信息包括第四通信距离阈值,第四通信距离阈值大于第三通信距离阈值。关于第四通信距离阈值与第三通信距离阈值之间的大小关系,可以参考S402中第二通信距离阈值与第一通信距离阈值之间的大小关系,此处不再赘述。
在一种可能的设计方法中,第四QoS需求信息还可以包括第四QoS需求参数,第四QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求低于第三QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求。
示例性地,第四QoS需求参数可以包括如下一项或多项:第四PC5口服务质量标识PC5 5G服务质量标识(PC5 5G QoS identifier,PQI)、第四PC5口流比特速率、当前组播业务所要求的第四QoS需求参数集合,如第四时延、第四丢包率、第四带宽等。相应地,第四QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求低于第一QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求,可以包括如下一项或多项:第四PC5口PQI对应的QoS需求低于第三PC5口PQI对应的QoS需求、第四PC5口流比特速率低于第三PC5口流比特速率、第四时延大于第三时延、第四丢包率大于第三丢包率、第四带宽小于第三带宽。
具体地,第三终端可以根据第三终端是发送终端,还是接收终端,以及第二QoS状态信息的数量,分别针对如下场景,从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择第四QoS需求信息:
场景1:第三终端为接收终端,第二QoS状态信息为第三接入层测量并上报给第三V2X层的QoS状态信息,即只包括第三终端这一个接收终端与发送终端之间的QoS状态信息,则第三V2X层可以从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择可满足第三终端与发送终端之间的QoS需求的一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息,并下发给第三接入层,即执行下述S607。
场景2:第三终端为发送终端,且第三V2X层接收到的第二QoS状态信息为一个,即只有一个接收终端向第三终端发送了组播通信的第二QoS状态信息,则第三V2X层可以从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择可满足第三终端与该一个接收终端 之间的QoS需求的一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息,并下发给第三接入层,即执行下述S607。
场景3,第三终端为发送终端,且第三V2X层接收到的第二QoS状态信息为多个,即存在多个接收终端向第三终端发送了组播通信的第二QoS状态信息,第三V2X层可以从至少两组候选QoS需求信息选择一组可满足所有接收终端的QoS需求的一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息,并发送给第三接入层,即可选地,图6所示的通信方法还包括下述S607。关于S607的详细内容,请参考下文实施例,此处不再赘述。
其中,上述可满足所有接收终端的QoS需求可以包括:第四通信距离阈值大于所有接收终端要求的最大通信距离,如第四通信距离阈值可以为所有接收终端要求的最大通信距离中的最大值。例如,3个接收终端要求的最大通信距离分别为:500米、600米、1000米,则第四通信距离可以为1000米,也可以为大于1000米的距离值,如1200米。
第四QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求低于所有接收终端要求的第三QoS需求参数对应的QoS需求中的最低需求。例如,3个接收终端要求的最小时延分别为:50ms、60ms、80ms,则第四时延可以为80ms,也可以为大于80ms的时延值,如100ms。
场景4,第三终端为发送终端,且第三V2X层接收到的第二QoS状态信息为多个,即存在多个接收终端向第三终端发送了组播通信的第二QoS状态信息,且第三V2X层发现至少两组候选QoS需求信息中不存在可满足所有接收终端的QoS需求的一组候选QoS需求信息,则第三V2X层可以向第三应用层发送不满足的QoS需求参数,由第三应用层决定是否调整QoS需求信息,以及从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择哪一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息,即可选地,图6所示的通信方法还可以包括下述S608-S609。关于S608-S609的详细内容,请参考下文实施例,此处不再赘述。
S607,第三V2X层向第三接入层发送组播通信的第四QoS需求信息。相应地,第三接入层接收来自第三V2X层的组播通信的第四QoS需求信息。
其中,第四QoS需求信息可以用于替换之前的第三QoS需求信息,用于第三终端与组播组内的其他终端,如第四终端之间的通信。
S608,第三V2X层向第三应用层发送组播通信的QoS需求调整请求。相应地,第三应用层接收来自第三V2X层的组播通信的QoS需求调整请求。
其中,QoS需求调整请求承载如下信息:一个或多个接收终端的QoS需求中不能被满足的QoS需求对应的最大通信距离和/或QoS需求参数、或者最大通信距离的索引和/或QoS需求参数的索引、或者最大通信距离的索引和/或QoS需求参数、或者最大通信距离和/或QoS需求参数的索引。此外,可选地,QoS需求调整请求还承载至少一项不能被满足的QoS需求的接收终端的身份信息,如终端标识。
需要说明的是,对于不同的接收终端,不能被满足的QoS需求信息可能是不同的。例如,第三通信距离阈值小于接收终端1所要求的最大通信距离阈值,第三带宽小于接收终端2所要求的系统带宽等。
在一种可能的设计方法中,第三应用层可以决定不调整QoS需求,即第三终端仍 然基于第三QoS需求信息,继续与第一终端实现组播通信。
在另一种可能的设计方法中,第三应用层可以决定调整QoS需求,并从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息。鉴于此时至少两组候选QoS需求信息中不存在可满足所有接收终端的QoS需求的候选QoS需求信息,第三应用层可以根据如下一项或多项规则从至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择一组候选QoS需求信息作为第四QoS需求信息:
可满足的参数数量最多、可满足的接收终端的数量最多、优先保证高优先级的QoS需求被满足。
S609,第三应用层经由第三V2X层,向第三接入层发送组播通信的第四QoS需求信息。相应地,第三接入层经由第三V2X层,接收来自第三应用层的组播通信的第四QoS需求信息。
需要说明的是,在执行S607或S609之后,即已完成QoS需求信息的更新,即从第三QoS需求信息调整为第四QoS需求信息,然后即可执行下述S610:
S610,第三接入层基于第四QoS需求信息,实现与第四终端之间的组播通信。
具体实现可以参考上述S603,此处不再赘述。
基于图6或图7所示的通信方法,组播组内的任一终端,如第三终端的V2X层能够根据其接入层提供的第二距离指示信息,获知其与组播组内的第四终端之间的距离值大于组播组内组播通信的QoS需求信息中的第三通信距离阈值,并据此从其应用层配置的至少两组候选QoS需求信息中选择一组作为第四QoS需求信息下发给其接入层,以便第三终端可以根据第四QoS需求信息与组播组内的第四终端实现组播通信;其中,第四QoS需求信息包括第四通信距离,且第四通信距离大于第三通信距离,从而实现组播通信的QoS需求的动态调整,以提高组播通信的可靠性。
