Description

用户设备及其方法、基站及其方法 技术领域
本公开涉及无线通信技术领域,更具体地,本公开涉及用户设备及其方法、基站及其方法。
背景技术
2018年9月,在第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project:3GPP)RAN#81次全会上,Nokia提出了一个关于5G(或称为NR)工业物联网(IIOT)的研究项目(参见非专利文献:RP-182090:Revised SID:Study on NR Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT)),并获批准。该研究项目的目标之一是通过数据重复(data duplication)来提高数据传输的可靠性和减少数据传输的时延,具体包括:(1)资源有效的PDCP重复,例如避免不必要的重复传输;(2)利用双连接DC或载波聚合CA实现超过两次的PDCP重复。
在版本15中,支持PDCP重复的承载最多可以配置两个RLC实体。配置了PDCP重复的承载的初始状态是通过pdcp-Duplication信元(所述信元的具体描述见3GPP TS38.331)来指示初始时是否激活PDCP重复功能。在载波聚合中,对于初始PDCP重复功能未激活的承载,其数据通过primaryPath信元(所述信元的具体描述见3GPP TS38.331)指示的逻辑信道发送。在双连接中,对于初始PDCP重复功能未激活的承载,根据待发送数据量的多少来决定数据是通过primaryPath信元(所述信元的具体描述见3GPP TS38.331)指示的逻辑信道发送还是采用分离承载方式发送。
在NR IIOT中,为达成利用双连接或载波聚合实现超过两次的PDCP重复这一目标,部分厂商提出为支持PDCP重复的承载配置多个RLC实体但每次仅激活其中的若干个RLC实体的方式。网络可以通过RRC信令或媒体访问控制控制元素MAC CE来指示是否激活PDCP重复以及激活的RLC实体。本公开讨论配置和/或激活/去激活PDCP重复和/或RLC实体所涉及的相关问题。

下面描述本公开涉及的部分术语,如未特别说明,本公开涉及的术语采用此处定义。
RRC:Radio Resource Control,无线资源控制。
PDCP:Packet Data Convergence Protocol,分组数据汇聚协议。

PDCP-Config信元:所述信元PDCP-Config用于为信令承载和/或数据承载设置可配置的PDCP参数。
RLC-BearerConfig信元:所述信元RLC-BearerConfig用于配置RLC实体、在MAC中对应的逻辑信道和PDCP实体(服务的承载)的关联(used to configure an RLC entity,a corresponding logical channel in MAC and the linking to a PDCP entity(served radio bearer))。
主小区组:Master Cell Group,MCG。
主小区:Primary Cell,PCell。工作在主频率上的MCG小区,UE在其 上执行初始连接建立过程或发起连接重建过程。
主SCG小区:Primary SCG Cell,PSCell。在双连接中,在执行同步重配置中UE用于执行随机接入的SCG小区。
辅小区:Secondary Cell,SCell。配置了CA的UE,在特殊小区的基础上提供额外无线资源的小区。
辅小区组:Secondary Cell Group,SCG。对于配置了双连接的UE,服务小区组的子集,它包含PSCell和0个或多个辅小区。
特殊小区:Special Cell,SPCell。在双连接中,特殊小区指MCG的PCell或SCG的PSCell,否则(即在载波聚合中),特殊小区指MCG的PCell。
双连接:dual Connectivity,DC。
载波聚合:carrier aggregation,CA。
DRB:Data Radio Bearer carrying user plane data,承载用户面数据的数据无线承载或简称数据无线承载。
SRB:Signalling Radio Bearer,信令无线承载。
如未特别说明,本公开中所述承载或无线承载可以是:SRB、DRB、分离DRB、分离SRB。
PDCP重复:也可称为重复或分组重复或数据重复,SRB、DRB、分离SRB、分离DRB均可配置PDCP重复。当无线承载配置了PDCP重复时,为所述无线承载增加辅RLC实体和辅逻辑信道来处理重复的PDCP PDU。PDCP重复是指相同的PDCP PDU发送两次或多次,所述两次或多次发送的PDCP PDU通过关联到不同载波或载波组的RLC实体和/或逻辑信道发送。在双连接方式下,所述配置了PDCP重复的无线承载的RLC实体和/或逻辑信道属于不同的MAC实体。

在3GPP版本15(release 15)中,在载波聚合中,当PDCP重复被去激活时,PDCP实体将PDCP PDU发送到主路径。在双连接中,当PDCP重复被去激活时,如果数据总量小于配置的数据分离门限,则PDCP实体将PDCP PDU发送到主路径。但3GPP版本16中,对于配置了PDCP重复的 DRB关联的RLC实体超过2个的双连接场景中,在PDCP重复去激活后的数据发送方式也可能不同于版本15。在载波聚合场景中,去激活PDCP重复后,数据发送方式可与版本15相同。
辅路径:secondary path,关联到配置了PDCP重复的DRB的RLC实体中除主路径外的其他RLC实体。
下面,对本公开中的用户设备UE中的方法进行说明,具体而言,对用户设备UE中承载的PDCP重复所涉及的控制方法进行说明。作为一例,图1中表示基于本公开的实施例的用户设备UE中的方法100的流程图。
在步骤S101中,用户设备UE(即UE中的MAC实体)从基站接收单数据无线承载重复激活或去激活媒体访问控制控制元素(single DRB Duplication Activation/Deactivation MAC CE)(称为第一MAC CE或增强的重复激活/去激活MAC CE)。所述单数据无线承载重复激活或去激活MAC CE用于指示激活或去激活一个DRB的PDCP重复和/或激活或去激活关联的RLC实体(即指示对应的RLC实体是否被激活)。
以下描述第一MAC CE的示例实现方式。
在一个实施例中,第一MAC CE包含DRB dup索引域和Ri域。其中,DRB dup索引域指示这个MAC CE所应用的DRB(DRB dup Index field indicates the DRB for which the MAC CE applies);优选的,DRB dup索引域的取值为按照DRB标识升序(或降序)排列的序号,所述DRB是配置了PDCP重复且存在RLC实体关联到这个MAC实体(The value of this field is the ascending order of the DRB ID among the DRBs configured with PDCP duplication and with RLC entity(ies)associated with this MAC entity)。换言之,DRB dup索引域的取值是将配置了PDCP重复且其关联的RLC实体属于/关联到这个MAC实体的DRB的DRB标识按照升序(或降序)排列的序号,预定义起始序号为0或起始序号为1。例如,DRB1、DRB3、DRB4配置了PDCP重复且这三个DRB都存在RLC实体关联到当前MAC实体,那么DRB 1、DRB3、DRB4对应的序号(即DRB dup索引域的取值)分别为0、1、2(或1、2、3)。备选的,DRB dup索引域的取值为DRB标识。Ri域指示激活或去激活对应的RLC实体,或者Ri域指示对应的RLC实体的PDCP重 复的激活/去激活状态,RLC实体按照RLC实体标识从小到大(或从大到小)的顺序排列(主路径除外)分别对应R0、R1、R2。此外,如果主路径也在第一MAC CE中指示,那么对应主路径的Ri的取值总是为1。对于没有RLC实体映射到的Ri域,可以规定或预定义其取值总是为0(或1)或其他预定义的值。UE将忽略那些没有RLC实体映射到的Ri。例如,假设配置了PDCP重复的DRB1(或其PDCP实体)关联了RLC 1、RLC 2、RLC 3且RLC 1是主路径,那么RLC 2和RLC 3分别映射到R0和R1,而R2没有映射到任何RLC实体。图2给出了第一MAC CE的示例格式。
可选的,第一MAC CE还包含A/D域,所述A/D域用于指示DRB dup索引域指示的DRB的PDCP重复的激活/去激活状态,A/D域设置为1,表示对应DRB的PDCP重复被激活,A/D域设置为0表示对应DRB的PDCP重复被去激活。反之亦然。可选的,如果A/D域设置为0,则所有的Ri域均设置为0(如果第一MAC CE中包含主路径对应的Ri,则主路径对应的Ri取值为1但其他Ri取值为0)。
需要说明的是,由于RLC实体和逻辑信道存在一一映射的关系,所以本公开实施例中RLC实体也可以替换为逻辑信道,RLC实体标识相应的替换为逻辑信道标识。
在本公开实施例中,如果基站在发送给UE的RRC消息中为每个配置了PDCP重复的DRB关联的RLC实体分别配置了一个针对DRB唯一的RLC标识,那么第一MAC CE中Ri域可以直接对应RLC标识,但是如果没有配置RLC标识,Ri域与RLC实体的对应关系可以根据RLC实体关联的逻辑信道的逻辑信道标识来指示。由于逻辑信道标识是针对MAC唯一的,在DC情况下,UE配置了两个MAC实体,一个配置了PDCP重复的DRB对应的逻辑信道在两个MAC中可能取相同的值,此时按照逻辑信道标识由小到大(或由大到小或升序或降序)且先MCG后SCG(或先MCG或SCG)(如果存在)的方式与Ri(i=0、1、2或i=0、1、2、3)一一对应。例如,DRB1在MCG中关联逻辑信道LCID 2、LCID 3,在SCG中关联逻辑信道LCID 1、LCID 3,MCG LCID 2对应的RLC实体为主RLC实体,那么按照先MCG后SCG且升序的顺序排列为MCG LCID 3、SCG LCID 1、SCG  LCID 3,它们分别对应R0、R1、R2。
图7示出了PDCP实体、RLC实体、逻辑信道、MAC实体间的对应关系。
在步骤S102中,用户设备UE(即UE中的MAC实体)基于所述第一MAC CE指示上层(例如PDCP层/实体)激活或去激活对应DRB的PDCP重复和/或关联的RLC实体。具体的,对于每个配置了PDCP重复的DRB,MAC实体执行以下操作:
在一个实施例中,如果接收到针对配置了PDCP重复的DRB所关联的RLC实体的第一MAC CE,如果Ri均为0(所有的RLC实体或辅RLC实体均被去激活),指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复;否则,指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复和/或激活的RLC实体(即Ri=1的位对应的RLC实体)。
在一个实施例中,如果接收到针对配置了PDCP重复的DRB所关联的RLC实体的第一MAC CE,如果至少存在一个Ri为1(至少一个RLC实体或至少一个辅RLC实体被激活),指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复和/或激活的RLC实体(即Ri=1的位对应的RLC实体);否则,指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复。
在一个实施例中,如果接收到针对配置了PDCP重复的DRB所关联的RLC实体的第一MAC CE,如果所述DRB的PDCP重复被去激活,指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复和/或激活的RLC实体(如果存在);否则(即如果所述DRB的PDCP重复被激活),指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复和/或激活的RLC实体(即Ri=1的位对应的RLC实体)。
本公开实施例中,MAC在接收到第一MAC CE并向上层指示激活的RLC实体的操作可以替换为向上层指示去激活的RLC实体。去激活一个RLC实体是指一个RLC实体在被去激活后,PDCP实体不将PDCP数据PDU提交给这个RLC实体。
本公开中,激活的RLC实体也可称为为PDCP重复激活的RLC实体,是指PDCP实体关联的多个RLC实体中,激活以用于传输PDCP数据PDU的RLC实体。当PDCP重复被激活时,PDCP实体重复/复制(duplicate) PDCP数据PDU并且将所述PDCP数据PDU提交(submit)所关联的为PDCP重复激活的RLC实体。需要注意的是,在双连接中,PDCP重复被去激活后如果采用分离承载数据发送方式,则存在两个激活的RLC实体(主RLC实体和一个辅RLC实体),但此时激活的辅RLC实体不是为PDCP重复的目的。
以下描述UE接收到3GPP版本15定义的重复激活/去激活媒体访问控制控制元素MAC CE(以下简称第二MAC CE)时执行的操作实施例。
可以规定或预定义第二MAC CE仅用于去激活PDCP重复,而不用于激活PDCP重复,或者,对于关联的RLC实体大于2个的PDCP实体,UE忽略对应Di=1的值;对于关联的RLC实体等于2个的PDCP实体,如果Di=1,MAC实体指示上层激活对应DRB的PDCP重复;对于关联的RLC实体等于2个的PDCP实体,如果Di=0,MAC实体指示上层去激活对应DRB的PDCP重复。图3给出了第二MAC CE的示例格式。其中,Di域指示DRB i的PDCP重复激活/去激活状态,其中i是配置了PDCP重复且RLC实体关联到当前MAC实体的那些DRB按照DRB标识ID升序排列(This field indicates the activation/deactivation status of the PDCP duplication of DRB i where i is the ascending order of the DRB ID among the DRBs configured with PDCP duplication and with RLC entity(ies)associated with this MAC entity)。Di域设置为0表示去激活DRB i的PDCP重复,Di域设置为1表示激活DRB i的PDCP重复(The D i field is set to 1 to indicate that the PDCP duplication of DRB i shall be activated.The D i field is set to 0 to indicate that the PDCP duplication of DRB i shall be deactivated)。
具体的,对于每个配置了PDCP重复的DRB,MAC实体执行以下操作:
在一个实施例中,当Di=0(即接收到的第二MAC CE去激活一个DRB的PDCP重复)时,MAC实体指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复;当Di=1(即接收到的第二MAC CE激活一个DRB的PDCP重复)时,如果关联的RLC实体(这个DRB关联的RLC实体或这个DRB对应的PDCP实体关联的RLC实体)不超过两个或为两个,则指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复;否则(即如果关联的RLC实体(这个DRB关联的RLC实体或这个DRB对应的PDCP实体关联的RLC实体)超过两个),UE不向 上层指示(即针对Di=1对应的DRB不执行任何操作,换言之,忽略这个Di)。
在一个实施例中,当Di=0(即接收到的第二MAC CE去激活这个Di对应的DRB的PDCP重复)时,MAC实体指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复;当Di=1(即接收到的第二MAC CE激活这个Di对应的DRB的PDCP重复)且对应的DRB的PDCP重复当前处于激活态时,则指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复和/或指示上层保持当前激活的RLC实体;如果Di=1且对应DRB关联两个RLC实体或关联的RLC实体不超过两个,则指示上层激活这个DRB的PDCP重复。
在一个实施例中,当Di=0(即接收到的第二MAC CE去激活这个Di对应的DRB的PDCP重复)时,MAC实体指示上层去激活这个DRB的PDCP重复;当Di=1(即接收到的第二MAC CE激活这个Di对应的DRB的PDCP重复)时,UE不向上层指示激活这个DRB的PDCP重复(即针对Di=1对应的DRB不执行任何操作,换言之,忽略这个Di)。
也可以规定或预定义如果一个配置了PDCP重复的DRB只配置(或关联)了两个RLC,则采用第二MAC CE来激活或去激活PDCP重复;如果配置(或关联)了3个或3个以上RLC实体,则采用第一MAC CE来激活或去激活所述DRB的PDCP重复和/或关联的RLC实体。
还可以规定或预定义,对于接收到的第二MAC CE中Di=1对应的DRB,无论该DRB的PDCP重复当前处于激活态还是去激活态,对应DRB的PDCP重复将被激活并且在RRC消息中配置的处于激活态的RLC将用于这个DRB的PDCP重复,即在RRC消息中配置为激活态的RLC实体将被激活以用于这个DRB的PDCP重复被激活时发送PDCP PDU。
在本公开实施例中,如未特别说明,MAC实体指示上层是指MAC实体指示PDCP层或PDCP实体。
以下描述基站为用户设备配置PDCP重复承载的实施例。
在第一步骤中,用户设备UE从基站接收RRC消息,例如RRC重配置消息。所述RRC消息中包含一个信息元素IE secondaryFallbackPath,secondaryFallbackPath指示去激活PDCP重复后可 使用的或可发送PDCP PDU的辅RLC实体或激活的辅RLC实体或回退RLC实体(具体见发送PDCP实体执行的操作实施例)。secondaryFallbackPath信元的取值可以是辅RLC实体的逻辑信道标识或辅RLC实体的LCID或辅RLC实体所关联的逻辑信道的标识或辅RLC实体的标识(记为RLC ID),所述逻辑信道标识或LCID对应的小区组不同于主路径对应的小区组。由于目前3GPP系统仅支持为UE配置两个小区组MCG和SCG的情况,MCG对应的小区组标识CellGroupId为0,SCG对应的小区组标识CellGroupId为1。包含在所述RRC消息中的用于指示主路径的信元primaryPath中包含两个信元cellGroup IE和logicalChannel IE,cellGroup IE用于指示主路径所在的小区组,logicalChannel IE用于指示在cellGroup IE中指示的小区组中的逻辑信道或逻辑信道标识,secondaryFallbackPath指示的逻辑信道的逻辑信道标识所在的小区组是不同于主路径的小区组。如果主路径在MCG中,那么secondaryFallbackPath指示的逻辑信道在SCG中,反之亦然。
可以规定或预定义,在DC中,如果为配置了PDCP重复的DRB配置/关联的RLC实体在不同于主路径所在小区组的小区组中包含RLC实体数超过1个,则必须配置secondaryFallbackPath。
以下是secondaryFallbackPath包含在用于为DRB或SRB设置可配置的PDCP参数的PDCP-Config IE中的示例描述:
Figure PCTCN2020132183-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2020132183-appb-000002
在上述示例描述中,secondaryFallbackPath信元中包含logicalChannel信元或RLC实体标识信元(RLC实体标识信元用于指示回退RLC实体), 或者secondaryFallbackPath信元的取值为逻辑信道标识LogicalChannelIdentity或RLC实体标识。
所述secondaryFallbackPath信息元素(简称信元)也可以包含在RLC-BearerConfig信元中,由基站通过RRC消息为UE配置。优选的,secondaryFallbackPath的取值可以为TRUE或False或1或0,当取值为TRUE或1或所述secondaryFallbackPath出现时,在去激活PDCP重复后,将主RLC实体的secondaryFallbackPath指示的辅RLC实体作为DRB的数据传输路径,并根据发送PDCP实体执行的操作所定义的实施例中的方法发送PDCP PDU。备选的,secondaryFallbackPath的取值可以为用于指示对应的RLC实体处于激活态的值(记为Activated)、用于指示对应的RLC实体处于去激活态的值(记为Deactivated)、用于指示去激活PDCP重复后对应的RLC实体是否作为回退路径(记为FallbackPath)之一。所述回退路径是作为在去激活PDCP重复后按照发送PDCP实体执行的操作所定义的实施例中的方法发送PDCP PDU时的辅RLC实体。
可以规定或预定义,在配置了载波聚合的DC中,如果不同于主RLC实体所在小区组的小区组中存在多于一个RLC实体,则必须在不同于主RLC实体所在小区组的小区组中配置一个secondaryFallbackPath。
在第二步骤中,用户设备UE基于所述RRC消息建立/增加/重配置对应的DRB。
以下描述发送PDCP实体执行的操作。
发送PDCP实体(the transmitting PDCP entity)在向下层提交(submit)一个PDCP PDU时执行以下操作:
如果发送PDCP实体关联了一个RLC实体,则将所述PDCP PDU递交给关联的RLC实体;
