第五代移动通信技术(5G,5th generation mobile networks)的版本16(R16,Release 16)引入了多种终端定位技术,可以实现对处于无线资源控制(RRC,Radio Resource control)连接态的终端的定位。当网络需要对终端进行定位时,定位管理功能(LMF,Location Management Function)会向处于RRC连接态的终端发起定位请求。当终端接收到定位请求后,根据定位请求中的信息完成终端的定位测量,并上报定位测量结果或者终端的位置信息。

请参考图1,其示出了本公开实施例提供的一种无线通信系统的结构示意图。如图1所示,无线通信系统是基于蜂窝移动通信技术的通信系统,该无线通信系统可以包括:若干个终端11以及若干个基站12。
其中,终端11可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。终端11可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,终端11可以是物联网终端,如传感器设备、移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有物联网终端的计算机,例如,可以是固定式、便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的装置。例如,站(Station,STA)、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station),移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点、远程终端(remote terminal)、接入终端(access terminal)、用户装置(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户设备(user device)、或用户终端(user equipment,UE)。或者,终端11也可以是无人飞行器的设备。或者,终端11也可以是车载设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的行车电脑,或者是外接行车电脑的无线通信设备。或者,终端11也可以是路边设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的路灯、信号灯或者其它路边设备等。
基站12可以是无线通信系统中的网络侧设备。其中,该无线通信系统 可以是第四代移动通信技术(the 4th generation mobile communication,4G)系统,又称长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统;或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统,又称新空口(new radio,NR)系统或5G NR系统。或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统的再下一代系统。其中,5G系统中的接入网可以称为NG-RAN(New Generation-Radio Access Network,新一代无线接入网)。或者,MTC系统。
其中,基站12可以是4G系统中采用的演进型基站(eNB)。或者,基站12也可以是5G系统中采用集中分布式架构的基站(gNB)。当基站12采用集中分布式架构时,通常包括集中单元(central unit,CU)和至少两个分布单元(distributed unit,DU)。集中单元中设置有分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层、无线链路层控制协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)层、媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层的协议栈;分布单元中设置有物理(Physical,PHY)层协议栈,本公开实施例对基站12的具体实现方式不加以限定。
基站12和终端11之间可以通过无线空口建立无线连接。在不同的实施方式中,该无线空口是基于第四代移动通信网络技术(4G)标准的无线空口;或者,该无线空口是基于第五代移动通信网络技术(5G)标准的无线空口,比如该无线空口是新空口;或者,该无线空口也可以是基于5G的更下一代移动通信网络技术标准的无线空口。
在一些实施例中,终端11之间还可以建立E2E(End to End,端到端)连接。比如车联网通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)中的V2V(vehicle to vehicle,车对车)通信、V2I(vehicle to Infrastructure,车对路边设备)通信和V2P(vehicle to pedestrian,车对人)通信等场景。
在一些实施例中,上述无线通信系统还可以包含网络管理设备13。
若干个基站12分别与网络管理设备13相连。其中,网络管理设备13 可以是无线通信系统中的核心网设备,比如,该网络管理设备13可以是演进的数据分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)中的移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)。或者,该网络管理设备也可以是其它的核心网设备,比如服务网关(Serving GateWay,SGW)、公用数据网网关(Public Data Network GateWay,PGW)、策略与计费规则功能单元(Policy and Charging Rules Function,PCRF)或者归属签约用户网络侧设备(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)等。对于网络管理设备13的实现形态,本公开实施例不做限定。
为了更好地理解本公开任一个实施例所描述的技术方案,首先,通过一个实施例对一种终端定位场景做说明。
请参见图2,网络通信系统包括终端和定位管理功能(LMF,Location Management Function)。终端的状态分为无线资源控制(RRC,Radio Resource control)连接态和RRC非连接态。RRC非连接态包括RRC空闲态和RRC非激活态。当网络需要对处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位时,会通过长期演进LTE定位协议(LPP LTE Positioning Protocol)请求位置信息(Request Location Information)消息向终端发起定位请求。LPP请求位置信息消息主要包含两部分,其中,一部分为处于RRC连接态的终端采用的各种备选定位方式的公共配置参数,另一部分为各种备选定位方式独有的配置参数。当处于RRC连接态的终端接收到定位请求后,根据定位请求中的配置信息完成定位测量,并向定位管理功能上报定位测量结果或者位置信息。但是,对于处于RRC空闲态或者RRC非激活态的终端,由于LMF不能向终端发送定位请求,从而无法获得处于RRC空闲态或者RRC非激活态的终端的位置信息。
如图3所示,本公开一个实施例提供了一种终端定位方法,应用于终 端中,该方法包括:
步骤31,在终端处于无线资源控制RRC连接态时,接收携带有位置信息请求的请求消息;其中,位置信息请求包括:对终端进行定位的第一配置信息;第一配置信息,用于终端切换到RRC非连接态后根据定位请求信息进行定位测量以获得定位结果;RRC非连接态包括:RRC空闲态或RRC非激活态。
这里,终端包括但不限于:手机、可穿戴设备、车载终端、智能家居设备和/或智能办公设备。
在一个实施例中,所述请求消息为长期演进LTE定位协议LPP消息,或其他任何消息。为了便于说明,本公开以下的实施例中以LLP消息为例进行说明,但这并不是对本公开实施例的限定。
在一个实施例中,当处于无线资源控制RRC连接态的终端接收到携带有位置信息请求的请求消息,不会立即利用请求消息中位置信息请求中包括的第一配置信息进行定位测量。而是存储所述请求消息,并在所述终端从RRC连接态切换至RRC非连接态时,利用存储的请求消息中位置信息请求中包括的第一配置信息进行定位测量。
在一个实施例中,当接收到携带有位置信息请求的请求消息时,保存请求消息。这里,如果终端多次接收到请求消息,可以是在每次接收到请求消息后采用最新接收到的请求消息对存储的请求消息进行更新。这样,存储的请求消息总为最新接收到的请求消息。
在一个实施例中,请求消息可以是专门用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位的请求消息。这里,由于请求消息是专门用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位的请求消息,不需要与其他信息混合编码和解码,消息传输过程中的编码和解码效率会更高,提升了请求消息的传输效率。在另一个实施例中,请求消息也可以是通用的请求消息。这里,通用的请求消息 可以是与处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位的请求消息共用的消息。这里,处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位的请求消息和处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位的请求消息都采用通用的请求消息,减少了请求消息的类型,从而降低了终端接收消息时的检测复杂度。
在一个实施例中,当通用的请求消息是用于处于RRC连接态的终端时,处于RRC连接态的终端在接收到通用的请求消息后会立即利用通用的请求消息进行终端的定位测量;当通用的请求消息是用于处于RRC非连接态的终端时,处于RRC连接态的终端在接收到通用的请求消息后不会立即利用通用的请求消息进行终端的定位测量,而是存储通用的请求消息,在终端从RRC连接态切换至RRC非连接态后,再利用存储的通用的请求消息进行终端的定位测量。
在一个实施例中,通用的请求消息中包含指示标识。当指示标识的取值为第一值时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位;当指示标识的取值为第二值时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位。
在另一实施例中,当通用的请求消息中包含指示标识时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位;通用的请求消息不包含指示标识时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位。
在一个实施例中,第一配置信息中可以包含终端定位时的一种或多种如下信息:所采用的定位方式信息、定位测量精度要求信息、第一配置信息的有效时间信息、定位测量区域和定位测量次数信息。
本公开实施例中,在所述终端处于RRC连接态时,提前向所述终端下发携带有位置信息请求的请求消息,如此,所述终端从RRC连接态切换至RRC非连接态后就可以直接基于已经下发的第一配置信息进行定位测量,相较于处于RRC非连接态的终端由于不能获得所述第一配置信息,需要切 换至RRC连接态,通过连接态下接收的请求消息获取所述第一配置信息并切换回非连接态进行定位测量的方式,时延更小。从而实现了通信网络在终端处于RRC非连接态的快速定位测量。
在一个实施例中,第一配置信息包括以下至少之一:
公共配置参数,用于指示多个备选定位方式的共同配置;
定位方式信息,用于指示使用终端进行定位测量的定位方式;
有效时间信息,用于指示第一配置信息的有效时间范围;
有效范围信息,用于指示第一配置信息的有效空间范围。
在一个实施例中,第一配置信息可以包括公共配置参数、定位方式信息、有效时间信息、有效范围信息中的一种或者多种。
在一个实施例中,备选定位方式包括第一备选定位方式、第二备选定位方式和第三备选定位方式,第一备选定位方式、第二备选定位方式和第三备选定位方式都包括定位次数的配置参数,则公共配置参数包括定位次数。
在一个实施例中,公共配置参数还可以包括如下一种或多种:空间参考点的信息、参考信号的信息和定位数据的格式参数。这里,空间参考点的信息可以是定位卫星的信息。参考信号的信息可以是空间参考点发射的信号的信息。定位数据的格式可以是终端向基站上报定位结果的数据的格式。
在一个实施例中,备选定位方式包括第一备选定位方式、第二备选定位方式和第三备选定位方式。如果选用第二备选方式为使用终端进行定位测量的定位方式,则定位方式信息包括第二备选方式的信息。
在一个实施例中,有效时间范围可以包括计时起始点和计时结束点。例如,计时起始点为第1秒,计时结束点为第3秒。在另一个实施例中,有效时间范围可以包括计时起始点和时长。例如,计时起始点为第1秒, 时长为2秒。
在一个实施例中,计时起始点可以是终端接收到携带有位置信息请求的请求消息的时间点。
在另一个实施例中,计时起始点可以是终端从RRC连接态切换至RRC非连接态的时间点。
在一个实施例中,可以是设置定时器为设置时长,当及时起点到时启动定时器,在定时器计时时长为设置时长时,第一配置信息失效。
在一个实施例中,有效空间范围可以是预先设置的通信小区范围。在一个实施例中,可以通过设置通信小区身份列表来预先设置通信小区范围。请参见表一,通信小区身份列表包括通信小区范围信息和小区身份信息。和这里,通信小区身份列表中,通信小区范围包括第一通信小区范围和第二通信小区范围,第一通信小区范围包括小区身份信息为A和B的小区,第二通信小区范围包括小区身份信息为C和D的小区。当终端处于小区身份列表指示的通信小区范围内时,第一配置信息有效。当终端不在小区身份列表指示的通信小区范围内时,第一配置信息失效。例如,当终端处于A小区内时,第一配置信息有效。
表一
通信小区范围信息 小区身份信息
第一通信小区范围 A、B
第二通信小区范围 C、D
在一个实施例中,可以是将终端在RRC连接态时接入的小区确定为终端所在小区。
在一个实施例中,有效空间范围可以是预先划出的地理区域。当终端位于该地理区域以内时,第一配置信息有效;当终端位于该地理区域以外时,第一配置信息失效。
在一个实施例中,请求消息为第一请求消息,其中,第一请求消息,用于携带供处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量的第一配置信息;
或者,
请求消息为第二请求消息,其中,第二请求消息,用于携带第一配置信息,或者携带供处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的第二配置信息。
这里,第一请求消息为只用于供处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量的请求消息。处于RRC连接态的终端在接收到第一请求消息后,直接存储第一请求消息,在终端从RRC连接态切换至RRC非连接态后,利用存储的第一请求消息进行定位测量。
这里,通用的请求消息可以是处于RRC连接态的终端或处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量时用到的第二请求消息,或其他任何消息。需要说明的是,本文中,描述的通用的请求消息属于第二请求消息;这种描述方式是为了便于说明,但这并不是对本公开实施例的限定。
在一个实施例中,可以是通过指示标识来区分通用的请求消息是用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量,还是用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量。
在一个实施例中,通用的请求消息中包含指示标识。当指示标识的取值为第一值时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量;当指示标识的取值为第二值时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量。
在另一个实施例中,通用的请求消息中包含指示标识时,通用的请求消息用于处于非RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量;通用的请求消息不包含指示标识时,通用的请求消息用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量。
在一个实施例中,请求消息中的信息元素IE的内容包括如下至少之一:第一信息元素IE、第二信息元素IE、第三信息元素IE。在一个实施例中, 可以是根据第三信息元素IE的取值确定请求消息是用于处于非RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息还是用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息。这里,第三IE可以是指示标识。
在另一个实施例中,可以是根据信息元素IE包括的信息元素的内容确定请求消息是用于处于非RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的LPP消息还是用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息。例如,根据判断信息元素IE是否包含第一信息元素IE、第二信息元素IE、第三信息元素IE中的一种或多种,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是是用于处于非RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息还是用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息。例如,当信息元素IE包含某一种或多种的信息元素IE时,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是是用于处于非RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的通用的请求消息。
在一个实施例中,第二配置信息包括如下一种或多种信息:公共配置参数、定位方式信息、有效时间范围、有效空间范围。
在一个实施例中,用于携带第一配置信息的第二请求消息,包括以下至少之一:
第一信息元素(IE,Information Element),用于携带指示第一配置信息的有效时间范围的信息;
第二信息元素IE,用于携带第一配置信息的有效空间范围的信息;
第三信息元素IE,用于指示位置请求信息适用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量的信息。
在一个实施例中,每个信息元素可以是对应一个信息域,当信息域取值不同时,指示不同的信息。
在一个实施例中,当第一信息元素IE取值为“001”时,指示有效时间范围为第一时间范围。例如,第一时间范围的计时起始点为第1秒,计 时结束点为第20秒。当第一信息元素IE取值为“010”时,指示有效时间范围为第二时间范围。例如,第二时间范围的计时起始点为第21秒,计时结束点为第40秒。
在一个实施例中,当第三信息元素IE取值为“0”时,指示位置请求信息适用于处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位测量的信息;当第三信息元素IE取值为“1”时,指示位置请求信息适用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的信息。
在另一个实施例中,携带第一配置信息的第二请求消息包括第三信息元素IE;携带第二配置信息的第二请求消息不包括第三信息元素IE。
如图4所示,本公开另一个实施例提供了一种终端定位方法,该方法还包括:
步骤41,响应于终端接收到的第二请求消息,根据第二请求消息包含的IE或IE携带的内容,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是否是第一配置信息。
在一个实施例中,信息元素IE携带的内容包括如下至少之一:第一信息元素IE、第二信息元素IE、第三信息元素IE。在一个实施例中,可以是根据第三信息元素IE的取值确定请求消息包含的配置信息是否是第一配置信息。在另一个实施例中,可以是根据信息元素IE包括的信息元素的内容确定请求消息包含的配置信息是否是第一配置信息。例如,根据判断信息元素IE是否包含第一信息元素IE、第二信息元素IE、第三信息元素IE中的一种或多种,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是否是第一配置信息。
在一个实施例中,第二请求消息包括第三信息元素IE,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是第一配置信息;当第二请求消息不包括第三信息元素IE时,确定请求消息包含的配置信息不是第一配置信息。
在一个实施例中,第二请求消息包括第三信息元素IE,当第三信息元素IE取值为“0”时,确定LPP消息包含的配置信息是第一配置信息;当 第三信息元素IE取值为“1”时,确定请求消息包含的配置信息不是第一配置信息。
在另一个实施例中,第二请求消息包括第三信息元素IE,当第三信息元素IE取值为“1”时,确定LPP消息包含的配置信息是第一配置信息;当第三信息元素IE取值为“0”时,确定请求消息包含的配置信息不是第一配置信息。
步骤42,响应于请求消息包含的配置信息是第一配置信息,保存第一配置信息。
这里,当终端处于RRC连接态时,可接收一次请求消息,也可多次接收到请求消息,可以是在每次接收到请求消息后对存储的请求消息进行更新。这里,在终端处于RRC连接态时获得的第一配置信息在进行保存后,可以在终端处于RRC非连接态时从存储区域获取并进行终端处于RRC非连接态时的定位测量。
如图5所示,本公开另一个实施例提供了一种终端定位方法,该方法还包括:
步骤51,响应于请求消息包含的配置信息是第二配置信息,基于LPP消息包含的配置信息进行定位测量;
在一个实施例中,第二请求消息包括第三信息元素IE,当第三信息元素IE取值为“1”时,确定LPP消息包含的配置信息是第二配置信息;在另一个实施例中,当第三信息元素IE取值为“1”时,确定请求消息包含的配置信息是第二配置信息。
这里,由于配置信息为第二配置信息,是用于处于RRC连接态的终端进行定位测量的配置信息。因此,处于RRC连接态的终端在接收到第二请求消息后立即进行定位测量。
步骤52,上报定位测量的定位结果。
在一个实施例中,可以是周期性地进行定位测量,并在每次定位测量之后,上报定位测量的定位结果。
在另一个实施例中,可以是周期性地进行定位测量,并在多次定位测量之后,上报多次定位测量后的定位结果。
在另一个实施例中,可以是多次进行定位测量后,将多次定位测量的结果进行分析,获得分析结果后上报定位测量的定位结果。
如图6所示,本公开另一个实施例提供了一种终端定位方法,该方法还包括:
步骤61,在终端处于RRC非连接态时,接收寻呼消息;当寻呼消息携带有定位请求信息时,根据第一配置信息进行定位测量;
这里,定位请求信息可以是触发处于RRC非连接态的终端进行定位的信息。
