Description
本申请涉及智能网联车(intelligent connected vehicle,ICV)领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种用于信号同步的方法、装置和系统。
车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)系统中的通信方式统称为V2X通信(X代表任何事物)。例如,V2X通信包括:车辆与车辆(vehicle to vehicle,V2V)之间的通信,车辆与路边基础设施(vehicle to infrastructure,V2I)之间的通信、车辆与行人之间的通信(vehicle to pedestrian,V2P)或车辆与网络(vehicle to network,V2N)之间的通信等。V2X系统中所涉及的终端设备之间进行的通信被广泛称为侧行链路(slidelink,SL)通信。
应理解,车辆与车辆之间能够基于PC5接口进行通信的前提是该车辆与车辆实现信号同步。但是,现有的车辆与车辆实现信号同步的方法,可能由于发生同步源切换而导致车辆与车辆之间通信中断。
发明内容
本申请提供一种用于信号同步的方法、装置和系统,以提高车辆与车辆之间的通信性能。
第一方面,提供了一种用于信号同步的方法,该用于信号同步的方法可以由第一终端设备执行,或者,也可以由设置于第一终端设备中的芯片或电路执行,本申请对此不作限定,为了便于描述,可以由第一终端设备执行为例进行说明。
该用于信号同步的方法包括:第一终端设备广播第一同步信息,该第一同步信息中包括第一同步信号和第一主信息块,其中,该第一终端设备为非选定同步参考的第一终端设备;该第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第二同步信息,该第二同步信息中包括第二同步信号和第二主信息块;在该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息相同时,该第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备,在该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息不同时,该第一终端设备在接收到该第二同步信息并等待随机时长之后,接收来自该第二终端设备的第三同步信息该第三同步信息中包括第三同步信号和第三主信息块,在该第一同步信息和该第三同步信息不同时,该第一终端设备以该第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步;在该第一同步信息和该第三同步信息相同时,该第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备。
应理解的是,第二终端设备在接收到同步源的同步信息小于阈值时,第二终端设备会以周期T来周期性地广播同步信息。这里,根据3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范规定,周期T可以取160毫秒(ms)。下面,以160ms为周期举例。例如,第一终端设备在T1时刻接收到该第二同步信息,并且随机时长为1s,则第三同步信息为第一终端设备在T2=T1+1s+T3时刻接收到来自第二终端设备的同步信息,T3为第一终端设备等待随机时长后距第一终端设备接收到第三同步信息的时长,由于第一终端设备等待随机时长后,不 一定可以立刻接收到第三同步信息,故T3的取值范围为0ms≤T3≤160ms。
根据本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法,处于自同步状态的第一终端设备在广播自身的第一同步信息的时候也会检测其他终端设备(以第二终端设备为例)发送的第二同步信息。与现有的自同步状态终端设备检测到同步信息不同的是,本申请中第一终端设备在检测到第二同步信息之后不会直接以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,而是先判断第一同步信息和第二同步信息是否相同,当第一同步信息和第二同步信息相同时,第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步了第一终端设备无需以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备。当第一同步信息和第二同步信息不同时,第一终端设备和第二终端设备当前未实现信号同步,第一终端设备不在检测到第二同步信息并获知第二同步信息和第一同步信息不同的时刻立即以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,而是随机等待一会儿(具体时长不做限制),在等待随机时长之后,重新基于自身的同步信息(第一同步信息)和接收到的第二终端设备的同步信息(第三同步信息)判断在该随机时长之后第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已经实现信号同步。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同时,第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步了第一终端设备无需以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息不相同时,第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备。
两个终端设备可能会同时接收到对方发送的同步信息,为了降低两个终端设备同时发起同步,而导致无法实现同步的概率。可以通过使该第一终端设备接收到第二同步信息之后,等待随机的第一时长之后,再基于接收到第二终端设备发送的第三同步信息确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已实现信号同步,如果没有则以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备完成信号同步。如果在该随机时长之内第二终端设备以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备完成了信号同步则第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同,第一终端设备无需同步至第二终端设备。
同理,第二终端设备接收到第一同步信息之后,等待随机的第二时长之后,再基于接收到第一终端设备发送的第五同步信息确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已实现信号同步,如果没有则以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备完成信号同步。如果在该随机时长之内第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备完成了信号同步则第二同步信息和第五同步信息相同,第二终端设备无需同步至第一终端设备。
应理解,随机的第一时长和随机的第二时长大概率下不相等,使得第一终端设备和第二终端设备异步发起同步,实现两个终端设备信号同步。
综上所述,本申请中提供的用于信号同步的方法与现有技术提供的用于信号同步的方法区别在于,本申请中在第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经同步的情况下,第一终端设备不会以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,从而可以降低在第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经同步的情况下,由于切换同步源而导致通信中断的概率。
结合第一方面,在第一方面的某些实现方式中,该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息不同包括:该第一同步信号的标识和该第二同步信号的标识不同,和/或,该第一主信息块中包括的参数和该第二主信息块中包括的参数不同;该第一同步信息和该第三同步信息不同包括:该第一同步信号的标识和该第三同步信号的标识不同,和/或,该第一主信息块 中包括的参数和该第三主信息块中包括的参数不同。
具体地,该第一终端设备可以根据该第二同步信息确定该第二同步信号的标识,第一同步信号的标识和第二同步信号的标识不相同,和/或,该第一主信息块中包括的参数和该第二主信息块中包括的参数不完全相同的情况下,该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息不同。

具体地,第一同步信息和第二同步信息相同时,或者,第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同时,上述的第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备可以体现为第一终端设备仍然广播自身的同步信息,因为在此情况下第二终端设备已经以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备了,即第二终端设备发送的同步信息为同步源(第一终端设备)的同步信息,为了使得第二终端设备能够持续获知同步源的存在,第一终端设备持续广播自身的同步信息即可。
进一步地,本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法,即使第二终端设备已同步至第一终端设备,第二终端设备依然会发送第二同步信息的前提是第二终端设备接收到第一终端设备广播的第一同步信息的接收能量小于预设门限值(例如,目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范规定的门限值syncTxThreshOoC)。当第一终端设备接收到第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息的接收能量大于或者等于该预设门限值时与现有技术不同的是,本申请中第一终端设备接收到能量大于或者等于该预设门限值的第二同步信息也不会直接发起同步,而是会先判断第一终端设备是否已经和第二终端设备实现同步,尽量避免同步源切换。
结合第一方面,在第一方面的某些实现方式中,该第一同步信号中包括第一主侧行链路同步信号PSSS和第一辅侧行链路同步信号SSSS,该第一PSSS和该第一SSSS用于确定该第一同步信号的标识;该第二同步信号中包括第二PSSS和第二SSSS,该第二PSSS和该第二SSSS用于确定该第二同步信号的标识;该第三同步信号中包括第三PSSS和第三SSSS,该第三PSSS和该第三SSSS用于确定该第三同步信号的标识。

在该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息相同时,该无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备,在该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息不同时,该无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备以该第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步,或者,
在该第一同步信息和该第二同步信息不同时,该无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备接收到该第二同步信息并等待随机时长之后,接收来自该第二终端设备的第三同步信息,该第三同步信息中包括第三同步信号和第三主信息块,在该第一同步信息和该第三同步信息不同时,该无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备以该第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步;在该第一同步信息和该第三同步信息相同时,该无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备。
该无线通信装置可以是设置于第一终端设备内部的基带处理器或系统芯片(system on chip,SoC),本申请对于无线通信装置的具体形式并不限制。
根据本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法,处于自同步状态的第一终端设备内置的无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备广播自身的第一同步信息以及检测其他终端设备发送的第二同步信息,与现有的自同步状态终端设备检测到同步信息不同的是,本申请中无线通信装置使得该第一终端设备在检测到第二同步信息之后不会直接以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,而是先判断第一同步信息和第二同步信息是否相同,当第一同步信息和第二同步信息相同时,确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步了无线通信装置无需使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,当第一同步信息和第二同步信息不同时,确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备未实现信号同步。
作为一种可能的实现方式,当第一同步信息和第二同步信息不同时,无线通信装置使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备。
作为另一种可能的实现方式,当第一同步信息和第二同步信息不同时,无线通信装置使得第一终端设备不在检测到第二同步信息并获知第二同步信息和第一同步信息不同的时刻立即以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,而是随机等待一会儿,在等待随机时长之后重新基于第一终端设备的同步信息(第一同步信息)和接收到的第二终端设备的同步信息(第三同步信息)判断在该随机时长之后第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已经实现信号同步。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同时,第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步了无线通信装置无需使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息不相同时,无线通信装置使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备。
两个终端设备可能会同时接收到对方发送的同步信息,为了降低两个终端设备同时发起同步,而导致无法实现同步的概率。无线通信装置可以通过使该第一终端设备接收到第二同步信息之后,等待随机的第一时长之后,再基于接收到第二终端设备发送的第三同步信息确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已实现信号同步,如果没有则使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备完成信号同步。如果在该随机时长之内第二终端设备以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备完成了信号同步则第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同,无线通信装置无需使得第一终端设备同步至第二终端设备。
同理,第二终端设备接收到第一同步信息之后,等待随机的第二时长之后,再基于接收到第一终端设备发送的第五同步信息确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已实现信号同步,如果没有则以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备完成信号同步。如果在 该随机时长之内第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备完成了信号同步则第二同步信息和第五同步信息相同,第二终端设备无需同步至第一终端设备。
应理解,第一时长和第二时长大概率下不相等,使得第一终端设备和第二终端设备异步发起同步,实现两个终端设备信号同步。
即本申请中用于信号同步的方法与现有中提供的用于信号同步的方法区别在于,在第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经同步的情况下,无线通信装置不会使得第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步到第二终端设备,从而可以降低在第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经同步的情况下,由于切换同步源而导致通信中断的概率。

本申请实施例中的终端设备(terminal equipment)可以指接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、中继站、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端(user terminal)、用户设备(user equipment,UE)、终端(terminal)、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。终端设备还可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、车联网中的终端设备、车辆等。
本申请实施例中的网络设备可以是用于与终端设备通信的任意一种具有无线收发功能的通信设备。该设备包括但不限于: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)、家庭基站(home evolved NodeB,HeNB,或home Node B,HNB)、基带单元(baseBand unit,BBU),无线保真(wireless fidelity,WIFI)系统中的接入点(access point,AP)、无线中继节点、无线回传节点、传输点(transmission point,TP)或者发送接收点(transmission and reception point,TRP)等,还可以为5G系统,如,NR系统中的gNB,或,传输点(TRP或TP),5G系统中的基站的一个或一组(包括多个天线面板)天线面板,或者,还可以为构成gNB或传输点的网络节点,如基带单元(BBU),或,分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)等。
在一些部署中,本申请实施例中的网络设备可以是指集中单元(central unit,CU)或者分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)或者,网络设备包括CU和DU。gNB还可以包括有源天线单元(active antenna unit,AAU)。

随着社会的不断发展,汽车的普及程度也越来越高,驾驶出行在给人们的出行带来便利的同时,也给人类社会带来一定负面影响,车辆数量迅速增加引起了城市交通拥堵、交通事故频发、环境质量变差等一系列问题。从人身安全、交通出行效率、环境保护以及经济效应等多方面来看,都需要一套完善的智能交通系统(intelligent transportation system,ITS)。而当前,ITS也理所当然的成为了全球关注热点。
目前,车辆可以通过V2V、V2I、V2P或者V2N通信方式,及时获取路况信息或接收 服务信息,这些通信方式可以统称为V2X通信。
图1是一种V2X系统的示意图。该示意图包括V2V通信、V2P通信以及V2I/N通信。如图1所示,车辆之间可以通过V2V方式来通信。车辆可以将自身的车速、行驶方向、具体位置、是否踩了紧急刹车等信息广播给周围车辆,周围车辆通过获取该类信息,可以更好的感知视距外的交通状况,从而对危险状况做出提前预判进而做出避让;车辆与路侧基础设施通过V2I通信,路边基础设施,可以为车辆提供各类服务信息和数据网络的接入。其中,不停车收费、车内娱乐等功能都极大的提高了交通智能化。路边基础设施,例如,路侧单元(road side unit,RSU)包括两种类型:一种是终端设备类型的RSU。由于RSU分布在路边,该终端设备类型的RSU处于非移动状态,不需要考虑移动性;另一种是网络设备类型的RSU。该网络设备类型的RSU可以给与网络设备通信的车辆提供定时同步及资源调度。车辆与人(例如,车辆与行人、车辆与骑自行车的人、车辆与司机或车辆与乘客)通过V2P通信;车辆与网络通过V2N通信,V2N可以与上述的V2I统称为V2I/N。
应理解,图1为一种V2X系统的示例性结构示意图,不对本申请构成任何限定。例如,车辆数量、行人数量以及基础设施的数量可以为多个,并不一定仅限于图1中所示的数量。
图1简单介绍了V2X系统,下面结合图2简单介绍本申请提供的实施例所适用的场景。
目前兴起的车联网技术中,PC5接口可支持不同设备之间进行通信,例如,车与车、车与其它设备。本申请中主要涉及两个终端之间进行通信,应理解也包括终端设备与网络设备之间的通信,本申请对网络设备与终端设备之间的通信方法不做限定,可以参考目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范中的规定。
图2所示为适用于本申请实施例的通信系统的示意性框图。如图2所示,在该通信系统100中,终端设备121和网络设备110之间可以通过接口(例如,Uu接口)进行通信,终端设备122和网络设备110之间可以通过接口(例如,Uu接口)进行通信,终端设备121和终端设备122之间可以通过接口(例如,PC5接口)进行通信。
应理解,图2只是一种示意图不对本申请的保护范围构成任何限定。例如,图2中所示的终端设备的个数只是一种举例。
还应理解,在本申请中将上述的V2X系统中所涉及的终端设备之间进行通信称之为侧行链路通信不对本申请构成任何限定。例如,还可以将侧行链路通信称之为边链路通信、直通链路通信或者副链路通信等;另外,本申请实施例并不一定限制只能在V2X系统中运用,其他使用同步信号及主信息块(master information block,MIB)-SL-V2X进行同步通信的系统中同样适用,这里不再一一举例说明。
图2介绍了本申请实施例能够应用的场景,为了便于对本申请技术方案的理解,下面简单介绍本申请技术方案中涉及的几种基本概念。
应理解,下文中所介绍的基本概念是以目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范中规定的基本概念为例进行简单说明,但并不限定本申请实施例只能够应用于目前已知的系统。因此,以目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范为例描述时出现的标准名称,都是功能性描述,具体名称并不限定,仅表示功能,可以对应的扩展到其它系统,比如LTE、NR或未来通信系统中。
1、PC5接口。
移动通信系统发展过程中,为了更好的满足用户需求,提升设备之间信息交互的效率,在设备与设备之间引入了PC5接口。当前PC5接口已可用于V2X系统中。终端设备可以包括LTE制式或者NR制式等通信系统的PC5口,从而终端设备之间可以基于PC5接口进行通信。
2、信号同步。
以通信双方为终端设备#1和终端设备#2,基于PC5接口进行通信为例进行说明。应理解,终端设备#1和终端设备#2之间能够基于PC5接口进行通信的前提是终端设备#1和终端设备#2之间信号同步,即终端设备之间首先要进行信号同步。
为了实现终端设备之间的子帧级别的同步,终端设备需要发送侧行链路同步信号(sidelink synchronization signal,SLSS)(为了便于描述简称为同步信号),该SLSS中包括主侧行链路同步信号(primary sidelink synchronization signal,PSSS)和辅侧行链路同步信号(subsidiary sidelink synchronization signal,SSSS)。对于参与V2X广播通信的终端设备,为了实现发送广播信号的终端设备和接收广播信号的终端设备之间的子帧级别的同步,发送广播通信信号的终端设备#1发送SLSS,除此之外,为了使终端设备#2获得终端设备#1的带宽、时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)、保留位(reserved)、是否在接入网设备覆盖区(incoverage)等配置信息,终端设备#1需要发送物理侧行链路广播信道(physical sidelink broadcast channel,PSBCH),该PSBCH上承载有MIB-SL-V2X信息,该MIB-SL-V2X信息(为了便于描述可以简称为主信息块)中包括上述的带宽信息、TDD信息、reserved信息以及incoverage信息。
每一个发送SLSS的终端设备,均对应一个侧行链路同步源标识(sidelink synchronization source identify,SLSS ID),记为
其中,
是侧行链路同步源组内标识,
是侧行链路同步源组标识。SLSS占用子帧中的4个频分多址单载波(single carrier frequence division multiple access,SC-FDMA)符号,其中,PSSS占用两个相邻的SC-FDMA符号,SSSS占用两个相邻的SC-FDMA符号。除子帧最后一个SC-FDMA符号用于保护间隔外,其余符号将用于PSBCH传输。具体地,PSSS和SSSS用于确定SLSS ID,其中,PSSS用于确定
SSSS用于确定
应理解,本申请实施例中将SLSS ID称为侧行链路同步源标识只是举例,对本申请的保护范围不构成任何限定,例如,还可以称为同步信号的标识。
参与V2X广播通信的终端设备,通过PSBCH的解调参考信号测量旁路参考信号接收功率(sidelink-reference signal receiving power,S-RSRP),需要根据来自同步源的同步信号的强度选择同步源。上述终端设备#2将基于S-RSRP判断同步信号的PSBCH的解调参考信号测量同步信号的强度。
3、自组网。
本申请实施例中涉及的自组网指的是,某个非选定同步参考的终端设备广播同步信息之后,有其他的终端设备以该非选定同步参考的终端设备为同步源,同步到该非选定同步参考的终端设备,则该非选定同步参考的终端设备以及同步到该非选定同步参考的终端设备的其他终端设备组成一个自组网。本申请中两个终端设备组成自组网也可以称为该两个终端设备已经同步。
4、非选定同步参考的终端设备。
本申请实施例中涉及的非选定同步参考的终端设备(no selected SynRef UE)可以称为自同步终端设备。非选定同步参考的终端设备指的是该终端设备没有检测到同步源,而广播同步信息,该同步信息包括同步信号以及主信息块。
例如,终端设备#1和终端设备#2均为非选定同步参考的终端设备。终端设备#1没有在全球导航卫星系统(global navigation satellite system,GNSS)或小区的覆盖下,也没有搜到其他终端设备的同步信号,终端设备#1进行自同步,发出同步信号;同理,终端设备#2也没有在GNSS或小区的覆盖下,也没有搜到其他终端设备的同步信号,终端设备#2进行自同步,发出同步信号。
在终端设备#1和终端设备#2之间存在一段距离的情况下,无法搜到彼此的同步信号;当终端设备#1和终端设备#2移动到距离较近时,能够检测到对方的信号,由于组网通信的要求,自同步终端设备优先级最低,需要和其他终端设备进行组网,才可以进行通信,则终端设备#1和终端设备#2需要完成终端设备#1同步到终端设备#2,或者终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1。以终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1同步到终端设备#1为例,终端设备#2检测到终端设备#1的同步信号之后,以终端设备#1为同步源,进行信号同步,终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1之后放弃之前发送的同步信号,发送新的同步信号,或者不发送同步信号。
5、非选定同步参考的终端设备信号同步。
一种可能存在的情况,上述的非选定同步参考的终端设备#1和终端设备#2完成同步之后(例如,终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1),终端设备#1和终端设备#2属于同一个自组网。终端设备#2在接收到终端设备#1发送的同步信号的接收能量低于门限值(syncTxThreshOoC)的情况下,广播终端设备#1的同步信号;终端设备#2在接收到终端设备#1发送的同步信号的接收能量高于syncTxThreshOoC的情况下,不广播终端设备#1的同步信号。
终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1之后,终端设备#1仍处于自同步状态,可能会接收到终端设备#2广播的同步信号,由于自同步状态优先级较低,终端设备#1检测到终端设备#2广播的同步信号,可能会进行信号同步,同步到终端设备#2。由于终端设备#2广播的是终端设备#1的同步信号,所以如果终端设备#1检测到终端设备#2广播的同步信号的接收能量低于syncTxThreshOoC的情况下,终端设备#1和终端设备#2仍然能够正常通信,只是发生了同步源的切换(同步源从终端设备#1切换至终端设备#2)。
但是,如果终端设备#1接收到终端设备#2广播的同步信号的接收能量高于syncTxThreshOoC,终端设备#1不再发送同步信号,终端设备#2会发现同步源终端设备#1不存在,导致终端设备#1和终端设备#2通信中断。
另一种可能存在的情况,上述的非选定同步参考的终端设备#1和终端设备#2通过移动逐渐靠近时,同时检测到对方的同步信号,则终端设备#1和终端设备#2同时触发同步到对方,停止发送同步信号,终端设备#1同步到终端设备#2,终端设备#2同步到终端设备#1,此后终端设备#1会发现终端设备#2的同步信号不再存在,终端设备#2会发现终端设备#1的同步信号不再存在;重新进入无同步源状态,继而终端设备#1和终端设备#2进入自同步状态,不断的同步到对方,无法实现通信。
上文结合图1简单介绍了本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法能够应用的场景,以及介绍了本申请实施例中可能涉及到的基本概念,下面将结合附图详细说明本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法。
应理解,本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法可以应用于V2X系统,例如,图2中所示的通信系统。该通信系统可以包括至少两个终端设备。终端设备之间可通过PC5接口通信。
还应理解,下文示出的实施例并未对本申请实施例提供的方法的执行主体的具体结构特别限定,只要能够通过运行记录有本申请实施例的提供的方法的代码的程序,以根据本申请实施例提供的方法进行通信即可,例如,本申请实施例提供的方法的执行主体可以是终端设备,或者,是终端设备中能够调用程序并执行程序的功能模块。
以下,不失一般性,以终端设备之间的交互为例详细说明本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法。
图3是本申请实施例提供的一种用于信号同步的方法示意性流程图。该流程图中执行主体包括第一终端设备和第二终端设备。
该用于信号同步的方法至少包括以下部分步骤。
S310,第一终端设备广播第一同步信息。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备为非选定同步参考的第一终端设备,或者称为自同步终端设备。即第一终端设备没有同步源,例如,第一终端设备没有在GNSS的覆盖下,也没有在某个小区的覆盖下,也没有搜索到其他终端设备的同步信息。
第一同步信息中包括第一同步信号以及第一主信息块。其中,第一同步信号包括第一PSSS和第一SSSS,第一主信息块可以称为第一MIB-SL-V2X。第一主信息块中包括第一终端设备的带宽信息、TDD信息、保留位信息(例如,reserved信息)以及覆盖区信息(例如,incoverage信息)。
应理解,第一终端设备广播的第一同步信息用于与其他终端设备完成信号同步,形成自组网,本申请对于第一同步信息中包括的具体信息,以及不同信息在信号同步流程中实现的功能并不限制,可以参考目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范中的规定,本申请不再赘述。
一种可能的实现方式,本申请中的第一终端设备为没有与其他终端设备组成自组网的处于自同步状态的终端设备;
另一种可能的实现方式,本申请中的第一终端设备为与其他终端设备组成自组网但是为仍处于自同步状态的终端设备。
例如,有其他的终端设备以第一终端设备为同步源同步至第一终端设备了,但是第一终端设备并不能获知其他终端设备已经同步至自身了,认为自身仍然为自同步状态的终端设备。
S320,第一终端设备接收第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息。
具体地,第二同步信息包括第二同步信号以及第二主信息块。其中,第二同步信号包括第二PSSS和第二SSSS,第二主信息块为第二MIB-SL-V2X。第二主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息、TDD信息、保留位信息(例如,reserved信息)以及覆盖区信息(例如,incoverage信息)。
一种可能的实现方式,第二终端设备为未与第一终端设备实现信号同步的某个终端设备。即处于自同步状态的第一终端设备检测到第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息之后,会与第二终端设备完成信号同步。
另一种可能的实现方式,第二终端设备为已经与第一终端设备实现信号同步的某个终端设备。即在该实现方式下处于自同步状态的第一终端设备检测到第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息之后,无需与第二终端设备完成信号同步。
综上,与前文中非选定同步参考的终端设备信号同步不同的是,本申请实施例提供的用于信号同步的方法,第一终端设备检测到第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息之后,即使第一终端设备处于自同步状态,优先级较低。第一终端设备也不会贸然地以第二终端设备为同步源,且同步到第二终端设备,本申请中第一终端设备会基于上述的第一同步信息和第二同步信息判断第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已完成信号同步,属于同一个自组网。
当第一同步信息和所述第二同步信息相同的情况下,说明第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经信号同步了,第一终端设备无需以第二终端设备为同步源,同步至第二终端设备;或者,
当第一同步信息和所述第二同步信息不同的情况下,说明第一终端设备和第二终端设备未实现信号同步,第一终端设备可以以第二终端设备为同步源,同步至第二终端设备。
可选地,第二终端设备接收到第一终端设备广播的第一同步信息的能量小于预设门限值(例如,目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范规定的门限值syncTxThreshOoC),第一终端设备接收到第二同步信息的接收能量大于或者等于预设门限值,该预设门限值为第一终端设备和第二终端设备已知的门限值。
应理解,根据前文所述的非选定同步参考的终端设备信号同步方法,即使第二终端设备已同步至第一终端设备,当第二终端设备接收到第一终端设备广播的第一同步信息的能量小于预设门限值的情况下,第二终端设备仍然会向外发送第二同步信息。并且当该第二同步信息的接收能量大于或者等于预设门限值的情况下,第一终端设备会以第二终端设备为同步源,同步至第二终端设备,且第一终端设备不再发送第一同步信息,导致第二终端设备会发现同步源第一终端设备不存在,导致第一终端设备和第二终端设备通信中断。而本申请提供的用于信号同步的方法,即使第一终端设备接收到的第二同步信息的接收能量大于或者等于预设门限值,第一终端设备不会直接发起同步,而是先判断是否已经和第二终端设备实现同步。
图3所示的方法流程还包括S330:第一终端设备判断第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已信号同步,属于同一个自组网。
第一终端设备能够基于上述的第二同步信息确定上述的第二终端设备的工作频率、第二同步信号的标识以及第二主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息、TDD信息、保留位信息以及覆盖区信息。其中,第二同步信号的标识可以基于上述的第二PSSS和第二SSSS确定,由前文中的介绍可以获知第二同步信号的标识
其中,检测第二PSSS获得
检测第二SSSS获得
第一终端设备获得上述的第二终端设备的工作频率(第一终端设备和第二终端设备的工作频率相等)、第二同步信号的标识以及第二主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息、 TDD信息、保留位信息以及覆盖区信息之后,可以判断第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否属于同一个自组网。
当第一同步信息和第二同步信息相同时,第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备,即第一终端设备获知第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步,第一终端设备仍然广播自身的第一同步信息即可。
当第一同步信息和第二同步信息不同时,第一终端设备确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备在当前时刻未完成信号同步,则在此情况下第一终端设备可以以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备。
但是,本申请中并不限定第一终端设备在接收到第二同步信息确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备在当前时刻未完成信号同步,立即以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备,第一终端设备可以等待随机的第一时长之后再确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备是否已实现信号同步,若等待随机的第一时长之后仍然确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备未完成信号同步,此时第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备。
应理解,等待随机的第一时长之后,第一终端设备接收到的第二终端设备发送的同步信息可能不再是上述的第二同步信息了,也可能是上述的第二同步信息,为了区别本申请称之为第三同步信息。具体地,等待随机的第一时长之后,第一终端设备不一定可以立刻接收到第三同步信息,即第一终端设备接收到的第二终端设备发送的第三同步信息为第一终端设备等待随机的第一时长后的某个时刻第二终端设备所发送的同步信息。例如,第二终端设备发送同步信息的周期为160ms,则第三同步信息可以为第一终端设备等待随机的第一时长后的0ms至160ms之内接收到的第二终端设备发送的同步信息。
具体地,第三同步信息包括第三同步信号以及第三主信息块。第三同步信号包括第三PSSS和第三SSSS,第三主信息块为第三MIB-SL-V2X。第三主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息、TDD信息、保留位信息(例如,reserved信息)以及覆盖区信息(例如,incoverage信息),其中,第三主信息块中包括的参数为第一终端设备在接收到第二同步信息并等待随机的时长之后接收到的第三同步信息中包括的第二终端设备相关的参数,三主信息块中包括的参数与第二主信息块中包括的参数可能相同(例如,等待了随机的第一时长之后,第一终端设备仍然接收到上述的第二同步信息)。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息相同时,第一终端设备保持为非选定同步参考的终端设备,在接收到上述的第二同步信息并等待随机的第一时长之后第一终端设备获知第一终端设备和第二终端设备已经实现信号同步,第一终端设备仍然广播自身的第一同步信息即可。进一步地,在该情况下即使第一终端设备接收该第三同步信息的信号质量大于预设门限值时,该第一终端设备也继续广播第一同步信息。
当第一同步信息和第三同步信息不同时,第一终端设备确定第一终端设备和第二终端设备在当前时刻未完成信号同步,则在此情况下第一终端设备可以以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备。
在一种可能的实施方式中,当以下列举的条件中至少一个条件不满足的情况下,上述的第一同步信息和第二同步信息不相同:
1)第一同步信号的标识和第二同步信号的标识相同;
2)第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同。
当上述的条件1)和2)均满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定第二终端设备和第一终端设备已完成信号同步,无需再次进行信号同步,即第二终端设备同步到了第一终端设备,以第一终端设备为同步源,而当第一终端设备检测到第二同步信息之后,也无需以第二终端设备为同步源发起信号同步。
当上述的条件1)和2)中的至少一个不满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定第二终端设备和第一终端设备未完成信号同步,则第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源,发起信号同步。
例如,第一终端设备更新上述的第一同步信号的标识使得第一同步信号的标识和第二同步信号的标识相同,和/或,第一终端设备更新上述的第一主信息块中包括的参数使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同。
本申请中对于第一终端设备如何基于检测到的第二终端设备发送的同步信息完成信号同步并不限制,可以参考目前3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范中对于信号同步的规定,也可以参考未来协议中的规定,这里不再赘述。
示例性地,当上述的条件1)不满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定第二终端设备和第一终端设备未完成信号同步,则第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源,发起信号同步。
具体地,第一终端设备基于接收到的第二同步信息获知第二同步信号的标识,第一终端设备为了使得第一同步信号的标识与第二同步信号的标识相同,可以更新第一同步信号中的第一PSSS和第一SSSS,使得第一PSSS与第二PSSS相同、第一SSSS和第二SSSS相同,则基于更新后的第一PSSS和第一SSSS确定的第一同步信号的标识与基于第二PSSS和第二SSSS确定的第二同步信号的标识相同。
示例性地,当上述的条件2)不满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定第二终端设备和第一终端设备未完成信号同步,则第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源,发起信号同步。
具体地,第一终端设备基于接收到的第二同步信息获知第二主信息块中包括的参数,第一终端设备为了使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同,可以更新第一主信息块中包括的参数值,使得更新后的第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同。
例如,当第二主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息,第一主信息块中包括第一终端设备的带宽信息,该第一终端设备的带宽信息和第二终端设备的带宽信息不同,则第一终端设备将第一主信息块中包括的第一终端设备的带宽信息更新为第二终端设备的带宽信息,使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同;
还例如,当第二主信息块中包括第二终端设备的带宽信息、第二终端设备的TDD信息、第二终端设备的保留位信息、和第二端设备的覆盖区信息,第一主信息块中包括第一终端设备的带宽信息、第一终端设备的TDD信息、第一终端设备的保留位信息、和第一端设备的覆盖区信息,其中,第一终端设备的带宽信息和第二终端设备的带宽信息不同、第一终端设备的TDD信息和第二终端设备的TDD信息不同、第一终端设备的保留位信息和第二终端设备的保留位信息不同、第一终端设备的覆盖区信息和第二终端设备的覆盖区信息不同,则第一终端设备将第一主信息块中包括的第一终端设备的带宽信息更新为第二终端设备的带宽信息,将第一主信息块中包括的第一终端设备的TDD信息更新为第二终端设备的TDD信息,将第一主信息块中包括的第一终端设备的保留位信息更新为第二终 端设备的保留位信息,将第一主信息块中包括的第一终端设备的覆盖区信息更新为第二终端设备的覆盖区信息,使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同。
示例性地,当上述的条件1)和2)均不满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定第二终端设备和第一终端设备未完成信号同步,则第一终端设备可以以第二终端设备为同步源,同步至第二终端设备。
可选地,第一终端设备基于接收到的第二同步信息获知第二同步信号的标识以及第二主信息块中包括的参数,为了使得第一同步信号的标识与第二同步信号的标识相同,第一终端设备更新第一同步信号中的第一PSSS和第一SSSS,使得第一PSSS与第二PSSS相同、第一SSSS和第二SSSS相同;为了使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同,第一终端设备更新第一主信息块中包括的参数使得第一主信息块中包括的参数和第二主信息块中包括的参数相同。
同理,当在另一种可能的实施方式中,当以下列举的条件中至少一个条件不满足的情况下,上述的第一同步信息和第三同步信息不相同:
3)第一同步信号的标识和第三同步信号的标识相同;
4)第一主信息块中包括的参数和第三主信息块中包括的参数相同。
当上述的条件3)和4)中的至少一个不满足的情况下,第一终端设备确定接收到上述的第二同步信息并等待随机的第一时长之后,第二终端设备和第一终端设备仍未实现信号同步,则第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源,发起信号同步。具体地同步流程与上述1)和2)中的至少一个不满足的情况类似,这里不再赘述。
进一步地,当第一终端设备以第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步之后,第一终端设备可以作为第二终端设备的中继设备,向其他设备发送第二终端设备的同步信息。
例如,第一终端设备接收到上述的第二同步信息,并以第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步之后,当第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第二同步信息的信号质量小于或等于预设门限值时,第一终端设备广播第二同步信息;
还例如,第一终端设备接收到上述的第二同步信息并等待随机的第一时长之后,接收到上述的第三同步信息,并以第二终端设备为同步源进行信号同步之后,当第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第三同步信息的信号质量小于或等于预设门限值时,第一终端设备广播第三同步信息。
一种可能的情况,上述的第二终端设备也处于自同步状态,广播上述的第二同步信息。且第一终端设备接收到上述的第二同步信息的时刻和第二终端设备接收到上述的第一同步信息的时刻相同或大致相同(可能会产生同时以对方为切换源发起同步的结果)。
对于这种情况,本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以基于接收到的第二终端设备发送的同步信息同步至第二终端设备,第二终端设备也可以基于接收到的第一终端设备发送的同步信息同步至第一终端设备,为了尽量避免前文中非选定同步参考的终端设备信号同步流程中可能出现的第一终端设备和第二终端设备同时触发同步到对方而导致的不断发起同步无法通信的缺陷,本申请限定第一终端设备和第二终端设备发起同步到对方的时刻不同,即异步发起信号同步。
具体地,第一终端设备在接收到第二终端设备发送的第二同步信息之后,等待随机的 第一时长之后再发起信号同步,基于第二终端设备发送的第三同步信息同步至第二终端设备;第二终端设备在接收到第一终端设备发送的第一同步信息之后,等待随机的第二时长之后再发起信号同步,基于第一终端设备发送的第五同步信息同步至第一终端设备。
应理解,本申请对于上述的随机的第一时长和随机的第二时长具体时长并不限定,但是大概率下随机的第一时长和随机的第二时长不同(例如,第一终端设备随机选择等待的第一时长和第二终端设备随机选择等待的第二时长小概率下会相等)。随机的第一时长和随机的第二时长具体时长可以为协议预定义(例如,3GPP TS36.331 V15.7.0技术规范)的,也可以终端设备随机设定的,还可以是其他的设备设定的,本申请实施例中对于第一终端设备如何获知上述的随机的第一时长和第二终端设备如何获知上述的随机的第二时长并不限制。
可以理解,当上述的随机的第一时长比随机的第二时长更长的情况下,第一终端设备先进行信号同步,以第二终端设备为同步源同步至第二终端设备,完成信号同步之后,第一终端设备和第二终端设备属于同一个自组网,则第一终端设备广播第二终端设备的同步信息或者不广播信息。那么第二终端设备在等待随机的第二时长之后,由于第一终端设备已同步至第二终端设备,则第二终端设备可能检测到第一终端设备广播的第二终端设备发送的同步信息或者第二终端设备未检测到第一终端设备发送的第二终端设备发送的同步信息。若第二终端设备检测到第二终端设备发送的同步信息,判断第一终端设备和第二终端设备已完成信号同步,不会在发起信号同步;第二终端设备若未检测到第一终端设备广播的同步信息也不会发起信号同步,从而尽量避免了第一终端设备和第二终端设备同时触发同步到对方而导致的不断同步,无法通信的缺陷。
为了更好地理解图3所示的用于信号同步的方法,下面结合具体的实施例进行说明。
图4是本申请实施例提供的一种信号同步的方法示意图。图4中所示的终端设备#1和终端设备#2属于自组网#1。
终端设备#1广播同步信息#1,终端设备#2广播同步信息#2,以终端设备#1为上述的第一终端设备、终端设备#2为上述的第二终端设备为例说明终端设备#1和终端设备#2如何实现信号同步。
一种可能的实现方式,终端设备#1接收到同步信息#2之后,基于自身广播的同步信息#1和接收到的同步信息#2判断终端设备#1和终端设备#2已信号同步,则即使终端设备#1接收到了同步信息,也不会以终端设备#2为同步源而发起信号同步。
图5是本申请实施例提供的另一种信号同步的方法示意图。图5中所示的终端设备#1和终端设备#2属于自组网#1、终端设备#3和终端设备#4属于自组网#2。
终端设备#1广播同步信息#1、终端设备#2广播同步信息#2、终端设备#3广播同步信息#3、终端设备#4广播同步信息#4,以终端设备#1为上述的第一终端设备、终端设备#3为上述的第二终端设备为例说明终端设备#1和终端设备#3如何实现信号同步。
由于终端设备#1和终端设备#3属于不同的自组网,则当终端设备#1和终端设备#3之间的距离较远的时候,终端设备#1和终端设备#3无法检测到对方的同步信号。逐渐靠近的过程中,可能会发生如下情况:
终端设备#1检测到同步信息#3的时刻和终端设备#3检测到同步信息#1的时刻相同或相近,则终端设备#1以终端设备#3为同步源,终端设备#3以终端设备#1为同步源。为了 尽量避免终端设备#1和终端设备#3同时或基本同时发起信号同步而导致通信中断,本申请提供的信号同步的方法使终端设备#1和终端设备#3异步发起信号同步。具体地,终端设备#1检测到同步信息#3之后,等待随机的第一时长,再发起信号同步;终端设备#3检测到同步信息#1之后,等待随机的第二时长,再发起信号同步,其中,随机的第一时长和随机的第二时长,时长不同(例如,随机的第一时长为10ms、随机的第二时长为15ms)。
作为一种可能的实现方式,随机的第一时长比随机的第二时长更短,由于起始时刻相同或相近(均以接收到对方同步信息的时刻为起始等待时刻),所以当随机的第一时长比随机的第二时长更短的情况下,说明终端设备#1先于终端设备#3发起信号同步。具体地,终端设备#1在首次接收到上述同步信息#3时刻之后随机的第一时长,终端设备#1基于接收到的终端设备#3发送的同步信息#3’,以终端设备#3为同步源发起信号同步,同步至终端设备#3。
应理解,终端设备#1在接收到上述的同步信息#3之后的随机的第一时长再检测到的同步信息#3’可能与同步信息#3不同(例如,该随机的第一时长内终端设备#3广播的同步信息发生变化),或者与同步信息#3相同,本申请对于终端设备#1发起信号同步时检测到的同步信息具体内容并不限制,只是限制终端设备#1发起信号同步的时刻晚于首次接收到上述同步信息#3时刻随机的第一时长。终端设备#1同步至终端设备#3之后会广播终端设备#3的同步信息,则终端设备#3在首次接收到上述同步信息#1时刻之后随机的第二时长,终端设备#3接收到的终端设备#1发送的同步信息#3’获知终端设备#1和终端设备#3已信号同步,终端设备#3无需再发起信号同步。
在图5所示的情况下,如上所述如果随机的第一时长比随机的第二时长更短,则终端设备#1同步至终端设备#3之后图5中的终端设备#1、终端设备#3和终端设备#4属于自组网#2。进一步地,终端设备#2能够基于检测到的终端设备#1、终端设备#3或终端设备#4广播的同步信息同步至终端设备#1、终端设备#3或终端设备#4,从而使得终端设备#1、终端设备#2、终端设备#3和终端设备#4属于同一个自组网。
作为另一种可能的实现方式,随机的第一时长比随机的第二时长更长。在该实现方式下,终端设备#3先同步至终端设备#1,具体信号同步流程与上述的实现方式类似,这里不再赘述。
可选地,上述的第一终端设备可以为第一车辆或设置于该第一车辆中的芯片或电路,上述的第二终端设备可以为第二车辆或设置于该第二车辆中的芯片或电路,即本申请提供的用于信号同步的方法,可以应用于V2V场景中。
上述方法实施例中,上述各过程的序列号的大小并不意味着执行顺序的先后,各过程的执行顺序应以其功能和内在逻辑确定,而不应对本申请实施例的实施过程构成任何限定。并且有可能并非要执行上述方法实施例中的全部操作。
应理解,上述方法实施例中终端设备可以执行施例中的部分或全部步骤,这些步骤或操作仅是示例,本申请实施例还可以包括执行其它操作或者各种操作的变形。
还应理解,在本申请的各个实施例中,如果没有特殊说明以及逻辑冲突,不同的实施例之间的术语和/或描述可以具有一致性、且可以相互引用,不同的实施例中的技术特征根据其内在的逻辑关系可以组合形成新的实施例。
