具体实施方式
据统计,终端设备在灭屏状态(一般也称为锁屏状态或者黑屏状态)下,有至少98%的时间是不进行业务传输的。目前,为了保证终端设备能够及时接收到突发业务数 据,例如聊天消息、邮件、应用的通知等,即使在灭屏状态下,终端设备也始终保持准备接收数据的状态。因此,造成很多不必要的功率消耗,降低了终端设备的待机时间。
针对这一问题,本申请提供一种功耗控制方法,能够使得终端设备在灭屏状态下,切换到射频通路的电流下降至预设电流范围,且终端设备不接收下行数据的低功耗模式。以降低终端设备在灭屏状态下的功率损耗,从而延长终端设备的待机时间。
首先,在介绍本申请提供的功耗控制方法、芯片系统及终端设备的实施例之前,需要先对下文中即将提及的部分术语进行说明。当本申请提及术语“第一”或者“第二”等序数词时,除非根据上下文其确实表达顺序之意,否则应当理解为仅仅是起区分之用。
术语“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明。本申请实施例中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其他实施或设计方案更优选或更具优势。确切而言,使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念。
除非另有说明,本文中“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系,例如,A/B可以表示A或B。术语“和/或”仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,在本申请的描述中,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。
其次,本申请提供的功耗控制方法适用于手机、移动电脑、平板电脑、穿戴设备等终端设备。支持第四代(fourth generation,4G)接入技术,例如长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)接入技术、LTE演进(LTE-Advanced,LTE-A)接入技术;支持第五代(fifth generation,5G)接入技术,例如新无线(new radio,NR)接入技术;还可以支持多种无线技术的系统,例如支持LTE和NR双连接的系统。当然,也可以支持面向未来的通信技术。
下面结合具体实施例,对本申请提供的功率控制方法进行示例性的说明。
参见图1,为本申请提供的一种功耗控制方法的一个实施例的流程图。如图2所示,该方法包括:
S101,终端设备检测该终端设备的屏幕状态和数据流量。
在一个实施例中,当终端设备在亮屏状态下通过用户操作确定触发锁屏信号时,终端设备则会进入锁屏且灭屏的状态,因此,终端设备可以基于用户操作确定屏幕状态。例如,当终端设备检测到用户触发的锁屏信号时,即可确定屏幕从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。其中,锁屏信号可以是用户按压锁屏键所触发的,锁屏键可以是虚拟按键也可以是物理按键。
例如,虚拟按键可以是终端设备的屏幕上显示的图标。示例性的,如图2所示,终端设备的屏幕上显示有“一键锁屏”图标。当终端设备检测到该“一键锁屏”图标被点击时,终端设备即可控制屏幕从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。
物理按键可以是专用的屏幕控制键,也可以是具备屏幕控制功能的电源键。例如,如图2所示,终端设备的屏幕侧边设置有物理按键,该物理按键被按压后产生灭屏信号,当终端设备检测到灭屏信号时,终端设备确定屏幕从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。 一般来讲,终端设备的电源键被长按(即超过预设第一时长,例如2s)时,可以控制终端设备开机、关机或者重启。电源键被单击时,可以控制屏幕亮或者灭。
可选的,终端设备也可以检测终端设备的锁屏时间,确定屏幕状态。锁屏时间可以理解为终端设备未检测到用户操作的时间段。当在预定锁屏时间内未检测到用户操作时,终端设备一般也会自动进入到锁屏且灭屏的状态。其中,预定锁屏时间可以由用户设定。
终端设备在检测数据流量时,可以通过内置的流量检测应用进行数据流量检测。一般来讲,流量监测应用会统计终端设备中安装的所有应用,并对每一个应用的流量进行统计,也会周期性的将所有应用在周期内产生的数据流量相加,得到终端设备的流量统计数据。那么,终端设备则可以直接获取流量监测应用的流量统计数据,以确定终端设备的数据流量情况。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备可以先检测屏幕状态,并在屏幕状态从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态时,开始检测数据流量。
示例性的,假设终端设备确定屏幕从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态的时刻为时刻1,终端设备可以检测以时刻1为结束时刻的指定时间段(例如5s、2s等)内的数据流量。也可以检测从时刻1为起始时刻的指定时间段内的数据流量。当然,终端设备也可以检测以时刻1为中间时刻的指定时间段内的数据流量。对此,本申请不做限制。
或者,终端设备也可以在检测到数据流量小于或者等于预设的流量阈值,检测屏幕状态是否处于灭屏状态。当然,终端设备也可以同时检测数据流量和屏幕状态,确定数据流量小于或者等于预设的流量阈值且屏幕状态为灭屏状态的时刻。
S102,当终端设备为灭屏状态,且数据流量小于或者等于预设的流量阈值时,终端设备从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式。
在本申请实施例中,当终端处于低功耗模式下,终端设备的射频(Radio Frequency,RF)通路的电流可以下降至预设电流,终端设备还可以不接收下行数据,其中,预设电流范围小于射频通路在正常工作模式下的电流(下文中将称为正常工作电流)大小。下行数据是指承载在物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared CHannel,PDSCH)上的下行数据。
在一个实施例中,终端设备可以通过控制射频通路进行射频开启和关断实现正常工作模式和低功耗模式之间的切换。
在该实施例中,所谓正常工作模式是指射频通路按照常规的协议(例如LTE协议或者NR协议)规定进行射频的开启与关断。即终端设备的射频通路会在每个传输时间间隔(Transmission Time Interval,TTI)内开启射频,并监听物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)上承载的下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)。
DCI是一种由网络设备发送给终端设备的控制信令,不同格式的DCI指示不同的控制信息。例如格式1用于指示PDSCH的资源调度信息,包括调制编码方案(一般占用5bit)、混合式自动重送请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request,HARQ)进程数(一般占用4bit)、新数据指示(一般占用1bit,用于指示是否有下行数据需要传输)、冗余版本(一般占用2bit)、物理上行链路控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel, PUCCH)传输功率控制命令(一般占用2bit)、下行分配索引(一般占用2bit)等字段。终端设备可以根据DCI确定是否有下行数据需要传输。Modem
基于常规的协议规定,一个TTI包括14个符号(symbol),终端设备的射频通路会在TTI内的第1、2或者3个符号接收到DCI。例如,在LTE中,射频通路在第2或3个符号内完成DCI的接收。在NR中,射频通路在第1或2个符号内完成DCI的接收。在接收DCI后,终端设备保持开启射频通路的射频并进行DCI解析。然后根据DCI的解析结果确定是否下行数据需要传输。
如果有下行数据需要传输,终端设备则继续开启射频通路的射频,并根据从DCI中解析出的资源调度信息以及传输格式等控制信息,在对应的PDSCH上接收下行数据。也就是说,在有数据传输的情况下,射频通路在整个TTI内均处于射频开启的状态。
如果没有下行数据需要传输,终端设备则在第10~14个符号或者在第11~14个符号关断射频通路的射频。射频关断后,射频通路无法接收任何数据。
以LTE为例,射频通路在第3个符号完成DCI的接收,然后终端设备解析DCI,确定是否有下行数据需要传输。如果有数据传输,如图3(a)所示,射频通路在整个TTI内均处于射频开启的状态。若没有下行数据,终端设备在第11~14个符号关断射频通路的射频,直至进入下一个TTI,重新开启射频并继续监听PDCCH。即如图3(b)所示,在TTI的前10个符号内,射频通路处于射频开启的状态,在TTI的后4个符号内,射频通路处于射频关断的状态。
也就是说,在正常工作模式下,如果没有下行数据需要传输,射频通路有64.2%(即9/14)的时间,或者71.4%(即10/14)的时间在进行射频。假设,在有数据传输的情况下,射频通路的正常工作电流为A,那么在没有数据传输的情况下,射频通路的正常工作电流为64.2%*A或者71.4%*A。
在该实施例中,所谓低功耗模式是指终端设备在每个TTI内,完成下行控制信息DCI的接收后,即可对射频通路进行射频关断的模式。在低功耗模式下,终端设备不需要等待DCI解析完成,在DCI解析完成之前就可以关断射频通路的射频。
示例性的,终端设备可以在接收到DCI后立即关断射频通路的射频,也就是从在接收到DCI后的第一个符号开始关断射频。
例如,在LTE中,若射频通路在TTI的第2个符号完成DCI的接收,那么,如图4(a)所示,从第3个符号开始,射频通路在TTI的后12(14-2)个符号内处于射频关断的状态,无法接收下行数据。即射频通路有14.2%(即2/14)的时间在进行射频,用以监测PDCCH上承载的DCI。与LTE的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从64.2%*A下降至14.2%*A。
若射频通路在TTI的第3个符号完成DCI的接收,那么,如图4(b)所示,从第4个符号开始,射频通路在TTI的后11(14-3)个符号内处于射频关断的状态,无法接收下行数据。即射频通路有21.4%(即3/14)的时间在进行射频,用以监测PDCCH上承载的DCI。与LTE的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从71.4%*A下降至21.4%*A。
同理,在NR中,若射频通路在TTI的第1个符号完成DCI的接收,那么,如图4(c)所示,从第2个符号开始,射频通路在TTI的后13(14-1)个符号内处于射频 关断的状态,无法接收下行数据。即射频通路有7.1%(即1/14)的时间在进行射频,用以监测PDCCH上承载的DCI。与NR的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从64.2%*A下降至7.1%*A。
若射频通路在TTI的第2个符号完成DCI的接收,那么,如图4(a)所示,从第3个符号开始,射频通路在TTI的后12(14-2)个符号内处于射频关断的状态,无法接收下行数据。即射频通路有14.2%(即2/14)的时间在进行射频,用以监测PDCCH上承载的DCI。与NR的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从71.4%*A下降至14.2%*A。
可选的,终端设备也可以在射频通路接收到DCI之后,并从指定符号位置开始关断射频。其中,指定符号位置位于接收到DCI之后,第9个符号之前的任一符号位置。
示例性的,在LTE中,当符号之间采用常规循环前缀(normal cyclic prefix,NCP)时,如图5(a)所示,射频通路接收到DCI之后,终端设备可以从第5个符号开始关断射频通路的射频。与LTE的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从64.2%*A下降至28.6%*A,或者从71.4%*A下降至28.6%*A。
当符号之间采用扩展循环前缀(extended cyclic prefix,ECP)时,如图5(b)所示,射频通路接收到DCI之后,终端设备可以从第4个符号开始关断射频通路的射频。与LTE的正常工作模式相比,在没有下行数据需要传输的情况下,射频通路的电流从71.4%*A下降至21.4%*A,或者从64.2%*A下降至21.4%*A。
可以看出,在该实施例中,当终端设备从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式后,相比于正常工作模式,终端设备的射频通路的电流具有较大程度的下降,例如下降了20%以上。因此,在切换到低功耗模式后,终端设备能够节省20%以上的功耗,从而延长待机时间。
由于在低功耗模式下,终端设备不接收下行数据。但灭屏状态下,终端设备也会接收到突发业务,需要进行下行数据接收。为了减少低功耗模式对下行数据传输的影响,本申请提供还提供有逃生机制。即当终端设备检测到有下行数据需要传输时,终端设备从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式以完成下行数据的接收,并在预设时间段内维持正常工作模式。
例如,终端设备切换到低功耗模式后,每个TTI内仍然会接收DCI。若在某个TTI(例如,TTI1)内,终端设备完成DCI的解析后,发现有下行数据需要传输,终端设备即可开启逃生定时器,并从TTI1的下一个TTI(例如,TTI2)开始,切换回正常工作模式。在逃生定时器定时结束之前,终端设备始终维持在正常工作模式。
对于向终端设备发送下行数据的网络设备来说,当网络设备检测到终端设备在TTI1内未正确接收下行数据,网络侧设备则会启动重传机制,在TTI2重新发送下行数据。而在TTI2内,终端设备已经切换回正常工作模式,因此,终端设备可以正常接收该下行数据。
由于终端设备处于灭屏状态,且重传间隔仅为一个TTI,使用该终端设备的用户较难感知到下行数据发送了重传。因此,本申请提供的针对低功耗模式的逃生机制,能够保证下行数据的传输,且不会影响用户体验。
此外,即使在灭屏状态下,终端设备也需要在指定类型的子帧执行指定的任务。 例如,终端设备在EMU测量任务子帧执行EMU测量任务;在小区搜索任务子帧中执行小区搜索任务;在寻呼(Paging)子帧中进行寻呼任务;在系统信息解调任务子帧中进行系统信息解调,例如,解调主信息块(Master Information Block,MIB)或者系统信息块(System Information Blocks,SIB);在导频配置子帧中进行信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signals,CSI-RS)导频配置等。在这些指定类型的子帧中,终端设备均需要射频通路维持射频开启状态才能顺利执行对应的任务。因此,本申请提供的生机制还可以包括对指定类型的子帧的检测。
例如,终端设备中预先设置有子帧集合,该子帧集合中包括多种预设子帧类型。例如,EMU测量任务子帧、小区搜索任务子帧、寻呼子帧、系统信息解调任务子帧、导频配置子帧等子帧类型。当然,除了前面列举的子帧类型外,该子帧集合中还可以包括其他需要维持射频状态的子帧类型,具体可以基于实际需求设置,本申请不做限制。
在终端设备处于低功耗模式的过程中,终端设备确定当前TTI的子帧类型是否属于子帧集合。若当前TTI的子帧类型为子帧集合中的一个预设子帧类型,终端设备则从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式,以便于执行该预设子帧类型对应的任务。在当前TTI接收后,终端设备从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式。
下面结合图6所示的流程图,对终端设备在切换到低功耗模式后的工作流程进行示例性的说明。参见图6,终端设备的工作流程包括:
S601,终端设备处于低功耗模式。
S602,终端设备检测当前TTI内的子帧类型是否属于子帧集合。
例如,终端设备在入网时会接收到网络设备下发的子帧配比信息,子帧配比信息中包括部分子帧类型的位置,例如导频配置子帧的位置。因此,终端设备可以根据子帧配比信息确定当前TTI内的子帧类型。
又或者,当网络设备指示一些子帧任务时,会通过物理广播信道(Physical Broadcast Channel,PBCH)下发控制信息,那么,当终端设备在接收到PBCH上的控制信息时,即可根据控制信息确定当前TTI内的子帧类型。
如果终端设备确定当前TTI内的子帧类型属于子帧集合时,则可以执行S603。如果终端设备确定当前TTI内的子帧类型不属于子帧集合,则可以执行S604。
S603,终端设备从低功耗模式切换回正常工作模式。
可以理解的是,终端设备切换回正常模式后,当进入下一个TTI时,可以继续检测下一个TTI内的子帧类型。如果下一个TTI内的子帧类型不属于子帧集合,终端设备即可再次切换回低功耗模式,否则仍然保持正常工作模式。
S604,终端设备解析DCI,确定是否有下行数据。
如果DCI指示没有下行数据需要传输,那么终端设备即可维持低功耗模式,并返回S602开始进行下一轮检测。若有下行数据需要传输,终端设备则可以执行S605。
S605,启动逃生定时器,并从低功耗模式切换回正常工作模式。
当检测到有下行数据需要传输时,终端设备即可从低功耗模式切换回正常工作模式,以接收该下行数据。同时,终端设备开启逃生定时器定时,在逃生定时器的定时时间段内,终端设备维持正常工作模式。
S606,逃生定时器定时结束。
当逃生定时器定时结束,终端设备即可再次切换到低功耗模式,并从S601开始进行下一轮检测。
值得说明的是,基于本申请提供的逃生机制,能够保证终端设备进入低功耗模式后,能够基于突发业务以及指定子帧类型,及时切换回正常工作模式。使得终端设备即使进入低功耗模式后,也能及时响应突发任务和指定子帧任务。
可选的,终端设备还可以通过减小射频通路的天线分集来进一步降低功耗。即当终端设备切换到低功耗模式时,终端设备将射频通路的天线分集切换到最小天线分集。
例如,终端设备的射频通路支持三种天线分集,分别为4Rx(4个接收天线)、2Rx(2个接收天线)以及1Rx(1)个接收天线。当终端设备切换到的低功耗模式时,终端设备可以直接将当前天线分集切换到最小天线分集1RX。若当前天线分集为4Rx,终端设备将4Rx切换到1Rx后,可以在上述关断射频的基础上在降低60%的功耗。若当前天线分集为2Rx,终端设备将2Rx切换到1Rx后,可以在上述关断射频的基础上在降低30%的功耗。当然,若当前天线分集已经是最小天线分集,终端设备在确定切换到低功耗模式时,可以保持当前的天线分集不变。
终端设备从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式之后,在没有检测到有下行数据需要传输的情况下,终端设备可以始终控制射频通路的天线分集为最小天线分集。
为了保证DCI的误码率,终端设备也可以通过检测信号质量,调整天线分集的大小。例如,可以检测信号强度指示(Received Signal Strength Indication,RSSI)、信噪比(signal noise ratio,SNR)信号与干扰加噪声比(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio,SINR)等。
例如,以SINR为例,如图7所示,终端设备支持的三种天线分集4Rx、2Rx以及1Rx分别设置有一个对应的SINR门限,分别为门限1、门限2以及门限3。该SINR门限可以是网络侧设备配置给终端设备的,也可以是预先配置的。在终端设备处于低功耗模式期间,终端设备可以周期性的检测SINR。
如果当前天线分集为1Rx,那么,若终端设备检测到SINR小于门限2且大于门限1,则1Rx切换为2Rx;若检测到SINR小于门限1,则1Rx切换为4Rx;若检测到SINR大于门限2,则维持1Rx不变。
如果当前天线分集为2Rx,那么,若终端设备检测到SINR小于门限3且大于门限2,则4Rx切换为2Rx;若检测到SINR大于门限3,则4Rx切换为1Rx;若检测到SINR小于门限2,则维持4Rx不变。
如果当前天线分集为4Rx,那么,若终端设备检测到SINR小于门限1,则2Rx切换为4Rx;若检测到SINR大于门限3,则2Rx切换为1Rx;若检测到SINR大于门限1且小于门限3,则维持2Rx不变。
其中,SINR门限的设置以及基于SINR门限的切换规则可以基于实际应用的需求进行设置,本申请不做限制。
当终端设备检测到有下行数据需要传输时,终端设备即可直接将射频通路的天线分集切换到最大天线分集。
参见图8,为本申请实施例提供的另一种功率控制方法的实施例的流程图,该方 法包括:
S801,终端设备检测到屏幕状态为亮屏状态。下一步执行S802。
示例性的,终端设备可以在灭屏状态下检测终端设备的锁屏键。例如,当终端设备在灭屏状态下检测到该物理按键被按压时,即可控制终端设备的屏幕从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态。
或者,若终端设备针对指定的应用(例如社交应用)开启的亮屏提醒功能,即当接收到聊天消息时,终端设备自动开启亮屏状态并在屏幕显示聊天消息。那么,当终端设备在灭屏状态下检测到指定应用的数据时,即可从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态。
S802,当终端设备处于低功耗模式时,终端设备从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式。
在该实施例中,当终端设备处于亮屏状态时,发现终端设备仍处于低功耗模式,终端设备则可以退出低功耗模式,从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式。
至此,为本申请提供的功率控制方法,终端设备可以基于不同的屏幕状态以及不同的数据传输状态,在正常工作模式和低功耗模式之间切换。在终端设备处于可能大部分时间都没有下数据传输的灭屏状态的情况下,终端设备通过切换到低功耗模式以降低终端设备的功耗,从而延长终端设备的待机时间。
下面介绍本申请提供的一种能够实现上述功率控制方法的芯片系统,如图9所示,包括AP和Modem。
其中,AP可以包括中央处理单元(Central Processing Unit,CPU)、数字信号处理器(Digital Signal Processor,DSP)、专用集成电路(Application Specific Integrated Circuit,ASIC)、现成可编程门阵列(Field-Programmable Gate Array,FPGA)或者其他可编程逻辑器件、分立门或者晶体管逻辑器件、分立硬件组件等。AP用于执行终端设备的各种功能应用以及数据处理,从而控制终端设备的操作系统、用户界面、应用程序等的运行。Modem也可以称为基带处理器(Base band Processor,BP),用于控制终端设备的射频通路进行数据收发以及信号调制等操作,以实现终端设备的射频通信功能。
在本申请实施例中,AP可以根据终端设备的屏幕状态以及数据流量控制Modem在正常工作模式和低功耗模式之间切换,实现上述功率控制方法。
下面结合流程图,对本申请提供的芯片系统中,AP对Modem的控制流程以及Modem切换到低功耗模式后的工作流程进行示例性的说明。
图10为AP控制Modem切换到低功耗模式的一个实施例的流程图,包括:
S1001,AP检测终端设备的屏幕状态。
示例性的,AP可以通过检测锁屏键触发的信号来检测屏幕状态。例如,当AP检测到终端设备的屏幕所显示的锁屏键的虚拟按键被点击时,AP确定终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。锁屏键的物理按键(例如,专用的锁屏键或者是具备锁屏功能的电源键)被按压后产生灭屏信号,当AP检测到灭屏信号时,确定终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。
或者,AP也可以检测终端设备的锁屏时间。当终端设备的锁屏时间到时时,AP即可确定屏幕从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。
S1002,当AP检测到终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态时,AP检测终端设备的数据流量。
当AP确定终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态时,AP开始检测数据流量。例如,终端设备中安装有流量监测应用,那么AP可以直接获取流量监测应用的监控数据。或者,AP也可以获取Modem对射频通路上传输的数据流量的统计信息,modern可以通过上下行数据包的大小进行流量统计。
示例性的,假设AP确定终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态的时刻为时刻1,AP可以检测以时刻1为结束时刻的指定时间段(例如5s、2s等)内的数据流量。也可以检测从时刻1为起始时刻的指定时间段内的数据流量。当然,AP也可以检测以时刻1为中间时刻的指定时间段内的数据流量。对此,本申请不做限制。
S1003,当数据流量小于或者等于预设的流量阈值时,AP向Modem发送第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示Modem切换到低功耗模式。
S1004,Modem接收到第一指示信息后,从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式。
其中,在低功耗模式下,Modem不接收下行数据,且Modem的射频通路的电流下降至预设电流。低功耗模式的具体实现方式可以参见上述步骤S102中的相关描述,此处不再赘述。
在一个实例中,为了避免AP出现错判,导致低功耗模式和正常工作模式反向切换,AP可以在检测到终端设备的屏幕状态发生变化之后,进一步确认Modem的工作模式。
示例性的,AP和Modem中可以设置状态记录信息。AP中的状态记录信息用于记录AP上一次发送的模式切换指示信息是第一指示信息还是第二指示信息。若状态记录信息中记录的是第一指示信息,则表示上一次发送的是第一指示信息,AP可以确定当前Modem处于低功耗模式。若状态记录信息中记录的是第二指示信息,则表示上一次发送的是第二指示信息,AP可以确定当前Modem处于正常工作模式。AP每次发送模式切换指示信息时,都会同时更新状态记录信息。其中,第二指示信息用于指示Modem切换到正常工作模式。
Modem中的状态记录信息用于记录Modem当前的工作模式。当Modem接收到第一指示信息,则将状态记录信息更新为第一指示信息,并切换到低功耗模式。当Modem接收到第二指示信息时,则将状态记录信息更新为第二指示信息,并切换到正常工作模式。
示例性的,模式切换指示信息可以是一个标志位flag,当flag赋值为“true”时,表示第一指示信息,当flag赋值为“false”时,表示第二指示信息。
在该示例中,AP发送第一指示信息的流程,还可以如图11所示,包括:
S1101,AP检测到终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态。
S1102,AP确定Modem当前是否处于低功耗模式。
即AP在检测到终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态后,可以先基于状态记录信息确定Modem当前是否处于低功耗模式。在Modem当前处于正常工作模式下,也就是检测到flag赋值为“false”时,才会进一步对终端设备的数据流量进行检测。
如果Modem当前处于正常工作模式,AP则在延迟预设时间段后,返回执行S1102,重新确定Modem是否处于低功耗模式。如果Modem当前处于低功耗模式,AP则执行 S1103。
S1103,AP确定终端设备的数据流量是否小于或者等于流量阈值。
如果AP检测到终端设备的数据流量小于或者等于流量阈值,AP可以则执行S1104。如果终端设备的数据流量大于流量阈值,AP则可以在延迟预设时间段后,返回执行S1102。
S1104,AP向Modem发送第一指示信息。
在一个示例中,AP向Modem发送第一指示信息时,可以通过共享内存发送。即AP将第一指示信息存入终端设备的共享内存中,Modem即可从共享内存中获取第一指示信息。
对于Modem来说,当接收到第一指示信息后,Modem可以直接切换到低功耗模式。例如,如图12所示,假设Modem在TTI2接收到AP发送的第一指示信息,Modem则从TTI2之后的第一个TTI(假设为TTI3)开始,切换到低功耗模式。
或者,Modem在接收到第一指示信息后,也可以先进行数据检测,确定切换时机。然后在确定切换时机之后切换到低功耗模式。
例如,Modem在接收到第一指示信息后,可以先在滑动判决窗内检测是否存在至少一个DCI指示有下行数据需要传输。若滑动判决窗内没有一个DCI指示有下行数据传输,Modem则从该滑动判决窗对应的TTI开始,切换到低功耗模式。
其中,一个TTI的滑动判决窗是指该TTI之前连续的M(M≥0)个TTI所构成的时间段。
例如,假设M=3,TTI0-TTI10为连续的11个TTI。TTI0-TTI2为TTI3的滑动判决窗,TTI1-TTI3为TTI4的滑动判决窗,TTI2-TTI4为TTI5的滑动判决窗,依次类推,TTI7-TTI9为TTI10的滑动判决窗。若Modem在TTI2接收到AP发送的第一指示信息,Modem则从TTI2之后的第一个TTI,也就是TTI3开始进行数据检测,确定执行模式切换的TTI。即Modem首先确定在TTI3的滑动判决窗TTI0-TTI2内接收到的3个DCI中是否存在至少一个DCI指示有下行数据传输。若没有一个DCI指示有下行数据传输,Modem即可确定执行模式切换的TTI为TTI3。Modem从TTI3开始按照切换到低功耗模式。
若在TTI3的滑动判决窗内接收到的3个DCI中存在指示有下行数据需要传输的DCI,如图13所示,Modem则继续检测TTI4是否为执行模式切换的TTI。即Modem确定TTI4的滑动判决窗TTI1-TTI3内接收到的3个DCI中是否存在至少一个DCI指示有下行数据传输。若没有一个DCI指示有下行数据传输,Modem即可确定执行模式切换的TTI为TTI4。Modem从TTI4开始切换到低功耗模式。
若在TTI4的滑动判决窗内接收到的3个DCI中存在指示有下行数据传输的DCI,Modem则继续检测TTI5是否为执行模式切换的TTI。依次类推,直至确定执行模式切换的TTI,并从该TTI开始切换到低功耗模式。
Modem在接收到第一指示信息后,通过在滑动判决窗内进行数据检测,能够进一步保证在切换到低功耗模式时,没有下行数据需要传输,从而避免低功耗模式在切换过程中对终端设备的下行数据传输的影响。
在实际应用中,终端设备即使在灭屏状态下,也可能随时接收到突发业务,需要 进行下行数据接收。由于Modem接收到DCI之后,在未完成DCI的解析情况下便关断射频通路的射频。因此,当Modem完成DCI的解析,发现有下行数据需要传输时,Modem则无法控制射频通路在指定的PDSCH上接收下行数据。
为了减少低功耗模式对下行数据传输的影响,本申请提供的芯片系统还设置有逃生机制。即当Modem检测到有下行数据需要传输时,Modem从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式以完成下行数据的接收,并在预设时间段内维持正常工作模式。
示例性的,当Modem处于低功耗模式时,Modem在每个TTI内接收到DCI后会在射频关断的状态下解析DCI。若在当前TTI内,Modem通过对DCI的解析确定有下行数据传输,Modem即可启动逃生机制。即Modem启动逃生定时器,并从下一个TTI开始,切换回正常工作模式,以便于接收DCI指示的下行数据。在逃生定时器定时结束之前Modem维持正常工作模式。
示例性的,在TTI11内,Modem采用低功耗模式监听PDCCH,在接收到DCI11之后关断射频。Modem通过对DCI11的解析确定有下行数据传输,Modem则立即启动逃生定时器,并从下一个TTI(假设为TTI12)开始,切换回正常工作模式,以便于接收DCI11指示的下行数据。假设,逃生定时器的定时时间为20个TTI,那么Modem在开启逃生定时器后,在TTI12-TTI32这20个TTI内均保持正常工作模式。
对于向终端设备传输下行数据的网络设备来说,当网络设备检测到终端设备在TTI11内未正确接收下行数据,网络侧设备则会启动重传机制,在TTI12重新发送下行数据。由于终端设备处于灭屏状态,且重建间隔仅为一个TTI,使用该终端设备的用户较难感知到下行数据发送了重传。因此,本申请提供的芯片系统的逃生机制,在保证下行数据传输的情况下,并不会影响用户的用户体验。
可以理解的是,在逃生定时器的定时期间,若AP没有发送第二指示信息,Modem的状态记录信息中仍然记录的是第一指示信息。那么,当逃生定时器的定时结束后,Modem基于状态记录信息中记录的第一指示信息,自动切换回低功耗模式。
相应的,在逃生定时器的定时期间,若AP发送了第二指示信息指示Modem切换到正常工作模式。Modem则根据第二指示信息更新状态记录信息。当逃生定时器的定时结束后,Modem基于状态记录信息中记录的第二指示信息,维持正常工作模式。
此外,终端设备即使在灭屏状态下,也需要在指定类型的子帧执行指定的任务。例如,终端设备在EMU测量任务子帧执行EMU测量任务;在小区搜索任务子帧中执行小区搜索任务;在寻呼子帧中进行寻呼任务;在系统信息解调任务子帧中进行系统信息解调,例如,解调MIB或者SIB;在导频配置子帧中进行CSI-RS导频配置等。在这些子帧中,Modem均需要维持射频状态才能顺利执行对应的任务。因此,本申请提供的芯片系统中设置的逃生机制还可以包括对指定类型的子帧的检测。
示例性的,Modem中预先设置有子帧集合,该子帧集合中包括多种预设子帧类型。例如,EMU测量任务子、小区搜索任务子帧、寻呼子帧、系统信息解调任务子帧、导频配置子帧等子帧类型。当然,除了前面列举的子帧类型外,该子帧集合中还可以包括其他需要维持射频状态的子帧类型,具体可以基于实际需求设置,本申请不做限制。
Modem在处于低功耗模式的过程中,在每个TTI内确定该TTI的子帧类型是否属于子帧集合。若该TTI的子帧类型为该子帧集合中的一个子帧类型,Modem在该TTI 内切换到征程工作模式,以便于执行该预设子帧类型对应的任务。并且在该TTI接收后,Modem从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式。
下面结合图14所示的流程图,对Modem却换到低功耗模式后的工作流程进行示例性的说明。参见图14,Modem的工作流程包括:
S1401,Modem检测状态记录信息中记录的是否为第一指示信息。
当Modem检测到状态记录信息中记录的是第一指示信息时,Modem则可以执行S1402。当Modem检测到状态记录信息中记录的是第二指示信息时,Modem则可以执行S1408。
S1402,Modem切换到低功耗模式。
S1403,Modem检测当前TTI内的子帧类型是否属于子帧集合。
如果Modem确定当前TTI内的子帧类型属于子帧集合时,则可以执行S1404。如果Modem确定当前TTI内的子帧类型不属于子帧集合,则可以执行S1405。
S1404,Modem切换到正常工作模式。
可以理解的是,Modem切换回正常模式后,当进入下一个TTI时,可以继续检测下一个TTI内的子帧类型。如果下一个TTI内的子帧类型不属于子帧集合,终端设备即可再次切换回低功耗模式,即返回执行S1402,否则仍然保持正常工作模式。
S1405,Modem解析DCI,确定是否有下行数据。
如果DCI指示没有下行数据需要传输,那么Modem即可维持低功耗模式,并返回S1041开始进行下一轮检测。若有下行数据需要传输,终端设备则可以执行S1406。
S1406,启动逃生定时器,并切换到正常工作模式。
当检测到有下行数据需要传输时,Modem即可从低功耗模式切换回正常工作模式,以接收该下行数据。同时,Modem开启逃生定时器定时,在逃生定时器的定时时间段内,Modem维持正常工作模式。
S1407,确定逃生定时器定时结束。
当Modem确定逃生定时器定时结束,Modem则可以返回执行S1041,进行下一轮检测。
S1408,Modem切换到正常工作模式。
可以看出,基于本申请提供的逃生机制,Modem进入低功耗模式后,能够基于突发业务以及指定子帧类型,及时切换回正常工作模式。使得射频通路即使进入低功耗模式后,也能及时响应突发任务和指定子帧任务。
可选的,Modem还可以通过减小射频通路的天线分集来进一步降低功耗。即当Modem切换到低功耗模式时,Modem将射频通路的天线分集切换到最小天线分集。
例如,射频通路支持三种天线分集,分别为4Rx(4个接收天线)、2Rx(2个接收天线)以及1Rx(1)个接收天线。当Modem切换到的低功耗模式时,Modem可以直接将当前天线分集切换到最小天线分集1RX。若当前天线分集为4Rx,Modem将4Rx切换到1Rx后,可以在上述关断射频的基础上在降低60%的功耗。若当前天线分集为2Rx,Modem将2Rx切换到1Rx后,可以在上述关断射频的基础上在降低30%的功耗。当然,若当前天线分集已经是最小天线分集,Modem在确定切换到低功耗模式时,可以保持当前的天线分集不变。
Modem从正常工作模式切换到低功耗模式之后,在没有检测到有下行数据需要传输的情况下,Modem可以始终控制射频通路的天线分集为最小天线分集。
或者,为了保证DCI的误码率,Modem也可以根据信号与干扰加噪声比(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio,SINR),实时调整天线分集的大小。
具体的,Modem根据SINR实时时调整天线分集的大小的方式可以参见上述图7所示的示例中的描述,此处不再赘述。
当Modem检测到有下行数据需要传输时,Modem即可直接将射频通路的天线分集切换到最大天线分集。
上述实施例主要描述了AP控制Modem切换到低功耗模式以及Modem在低功耗模式的工作流程。下面对AP控制控制Modem切换到正常工作模式的流程进行示例性的说明。
一种可能的实现方式为,当AP检测到终端设备从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态时,AP即可发送第二指示信息给Modem,指示Modem切换到正常工作模式。
另一种可能的实现方式为,当终端设备从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态时,AP在确定Modem处于低功耗模式的情况下发送第二指示信息,控制Modem从低功耗模式切换到正常工作模式。
示例性的,AP发送第二指示信息的流程,可以如图15所示,包括:
S1501,AP检测到AP从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态。
示例性的,AP可以在灭屏状态下检测AP的锁屏键。例如,当AP在灭屏状态下检测到该物理按键被按压时,即可控制终端设备的屏幕从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态。
或者,若终端设备中指定的应用(例如社交应用)开启的亮屏提醒功能,即当接收到聊天消息时,终端设备自动开启亮屏状态并在屏幕显示聊天消息。那么,当AP在灭屏状态下检测到指定应用的数据时,即可控制终端设备从灭屏状态切换到亮屏状态。
S1502,AP确定Modem当前是否处于低功耗模式。
相应的,AP在检测到终端设备从亮屏状态切换到灭屏状态后,可以先基于状态记录信息确定Modem当前是否处于低功耗模式。在Modem当前处于低功耗模式下,例如,检测到flag赋值为“true”时,才执行第二指示信息发送的操作。
S1503,AP向Modem发送第二指示信息。
至此,为本申请提供的芯片系统,由AP控制Modem在正常工作模式和低功耗模式之间切换,以适应处于不同屏幕状态、不同数据传输状态的终端设备。在终端设备处于可能大部分时间都没有数据传输的灭屏状态时,AP通过控制Modem切换到低功耗模式,以达到降低Modem的功耗,延长终端设备的待机时间的效果。
本申请还提供一种包括终端设备,该终端设备可以是手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、穿戴设备、机器人等。
