具体实施方式
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
对本公开中涉及的名词进行解释如下:
DRX周期(DRX cycle):是由“On Duration”和“Opportunity for DRX”组成。在“On Duration”时间内,UE监听并接收PDCCH;在“Opportunity for DRX”时间内,UE不接收PDCCH以减少功耗。
持续时间(On Duration Time):UE每次从DRX醒来后维持醒着的时间,用户终端在该段时间内会搜索PDCCH,即在该段时间内对PDCCH进行监听。
非激活时间(Inactivity Time):UE在醒着时每次成功解码混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest,HARQ)初始发送的PDCCH后保持激活的时间。
激活时间(active time):UE从DRX醒来后保持醒着的总时间,在此时间段,UE监听PDCCH,包括所有导致UE处于激活(active)的状态,比如是DRX周期开始“On Duration”,或者收到初始传输的PDCCH,或者是监听重传等。一种示例中,是这样定义active time的,如果配置了DRX,那么active time包括以下时间:On Duration time、Inactivity Time、重新发送时间(Retransmission Time)、以及定时器启动时间(mac-Contention Resolution Time)。
PDCCH跳过信令(PDCCH skipping):由网络设备给UE下发一个睡眠信令(Go to sleep,GTS),告知UE可以停止PDCCH监听一段时间。其通知UE进入休眠态的跳过时段可以基于网络设备的事先通知。可选地,该GTS可称为PDCCH跳过信令,该PDCCH跳过信令携带有与跳过时段相关联的信息。
图1示出了本公开一个示例性实施例提供的通信系统的框图,该通信系统可以包括:接入网12和用户终端14。
接入网12中包括若干个网络设备120。网络设备120可以是基站,所述基站是一种部署在接入网中用以为用户终端提供无线通信功能的装置。基站可以包括各种形式的宏基站,微基站,中继站,接入点等等。在采用不同的无线接入技术的系统中,具备基站功能的设备的名称可能会有所不同,例如在LTE系统中,称为eNodeB或者eNB;在5G NR系统中,称为gNodeB或者gNB。随着通信技术的演进,“基站”这一描述可能会变化。为方便本公开实施例中的描述,上述为用户终端14提供无线通信功能的装置统称为网络设备。
用户终端14可以包括各种具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备,以及各种形式的用户设备,移动台(Mobile Station,MS),终端(terminal device)等等。为方便描述,上面提到的设备统称为用户终端。网络设备120与用户终端14之间通过某种空口技术互相通信,例如Uu接口。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile Communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple  Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)系统、先进的长期演进(Advanced long Term Evolution,LTE-A)系统、新无线(New Radio,NR)系统、NR系统的演进系统、非授权频段上的LTE(LTE-based access to Unlicensed spectrum,LTE-U)系统、NR-U系统、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)通信系统、无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Networks,WLAN)、无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WiFi)、下一代通信系统或其他通信系统等。
通常来说,传统的通信系统支持的连接数有限,也易于实现,然而,随着通信技术的发展,移动通信系统将不仅支持传统的通信,还将支持例如,设备到设备(Device to Device,D2D)通信,机器到机器(Machine to Machine,M2M)通信,机器类型通信(Machine Type Communication,MTC),车辆间(Vehicle to Vehicle,V2V)通信以及车联网(Vehicle to Everything,V2X)系统等。本申请实施例也可以应用于这些通信系统。
图2示出了本申请一个示例性实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法的示意图,可以应用于如图1所示的用户终端中。该方法包括:
步骤201,用户终端获取PDCCH跳过时段信息,跳过时段信息指示跳过时段。
在上述跳过时段内,用户终端跳过第一DRX周期中的激活时间。其中,上述第一DRX周期是跳过时段内的第一个DRX周期。可选地,上述第一个DRX周期可以是在接收时刻之后的第一个DRX周期,或者,上述第一个DRX周期可以是接收时刻所在的DRX周期,即当前应用的DRX周期。
示例性的,如图3,示出了包括接收时刻的3个DRX周期,接收时刻所在的DRX周期c1即为第一DRX周期,或者,接收时刻之后的DRX周期c2即为第一DRX周期。其中,每一个DRX周期中包括持续时间和休眠期,跳过时段包括第一DRX周期中的激活时间(active time)。
可选地,上述接收时刻可以包括睡眠信令(Go To Sleep,GTS)的接收时刻。
可选地,上述跳过时段为固定时间长度。示例性的,固定时间长度大于第 一DRX周期中的激活时间的长度;示例性的,跳过时段为5s,其中,第一DRX周期中的激活时间的长度为1s,跳过时段大于激活时间的长度。
可选地,上述跳过时段为用户终端在第一DRX周期中的激活时间的剩余时间。示例性的,第一DRX周期的激活时间为1s,第一DRX周期为当前正在运行的一个DRX周期,且第一DRX周期已经运行至激活时间的第0.5s,则跳过时段为激活时间的剩余0.5s。
可选地,上述跳过时段是由网络设备配置的。可选地,在网络设备为用户终端配置上述跳过时段的过程中,上述跳过时段携带在下行控制信息(Downlink Control information,DCI)信令、无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)信令、媒体接入控制控制单元(Medium Access Control Control Element,MAC CE)信令中的至少一种信令中。例如,在一个可选的实施例中,该跳过时段可以是网络侧配置的一具体时间段、或以特定周期循环的时间段,在该时间段内,用户终端跳过第一DRX周期中的激活时间。
在一些可选的实施例中,网络设备通过DCI通知用户设备变更跳过时段。在另一些可选实施例中,网络设备通过RRC通知用户终端在DRX短周期与DRX长周期使用的不同跳过时段。在另一些可选实施例中,网络设备在MAC CE中向用户设备通知在DRX短周期与DRX长周期使用的不同跳过时段。在另一些可选实施例中,对于辅载波,网络设备在激活该辅载波的MAC CE中向用户设备通知跳过时段。
可选地,上述跳过时段为通信协议中约定的时间段。例如,在一个可选的实施例中,网络侧向用户终端发送跳过时段激活指示,用户终端接收到该指示后,确定跳过时段为协议中所约定的具体时间段或以特定周期循环的时间段,在该时间段内,用户终端跳过第一DRX周期中的激活时间。
可选地,用户终端还确定参数n,该参数n用于指示跳过时段对接收时刻之后的n个DRX周期生效;该n个DRX周期中包括第一DRX周期,其中,n为正整数。可选地,上述n个DRX周期中包括DRX短周期与DRX长周期中的至少一类。
示例性的,以接收时刻是GTS的接收时刻为例,如图4,用户终端确定出的参数n为3;用户终端在DRX周期5之前的时间段4内接收到GTS,则上述跳过时段内包括GTS接收时刻之后的3个DRX周期,即上述跳过时段对接收时刻之后的3个DRX周期生效,即对DRX周期5、DRX周期6、以及DRX周 期7生效。
在一些可选实施例中,若网络设备确定在接下来一段时间内没有数据传输至用户终端,则网络设备向用户终端发送GTS,通知用户设备按照配置的跳过时段或者通信协议中约定的跳过时段对PDCCH停止监听。
步骤202,在跳过时段内,停止对PDCCH进行监听。
用户终端在跳过时段内停止对PDCCH进行监听。可选地,用户终端在接收到网络设备发送的GTS之后,在跳过时段内停止对PDCCH进行监听。示例性的,用户设备在接收到网络设备发送的GTS之后,从网络设备配置的跳过时段中选择目标跳过时段,在目标跳过时段停止对PDCCH进行监听;或者,用户设备在接收到网络设备发送的GTS之后,从通信协议中约定的跳过时段中选择目标跳过时段,在目标跳过时段停止对PDCCH进行监听。
可选地,若跳过时段为固定时长,则用户终端从当前DRX周期或下一个DRX周期开始在固定时长内停止对PDCCH的监听;示例性的,以接收时刻是GTS的接收时刻为例,如图5,用户终端在休眠期1的时间段1接收到网络设备发送的GTS之后,从DRX周期2开始在固定时长内停止对PDCCH的监听,即从持续时间2开始在固定时间内停止对PDCCH的监听。
可选地,若跳过时段为用户终端在第一DRX周期中激活时间的剩余时间,则用户终端在上述剩余时间内停止对PDCCH的监听;示例性的,以接收时刻是GTS的接收时刻为例,如图6,DRX周期3包括持续时间3和休眠期3,持续时间3内包括激活时间的时间段2和时间段3,用户终端在时间段2内接收到网络设备发送的GTS,则在时间段3内停止对PDCCH的监听;即用户终端将正在运行的持续时长定时器或者非激活定时器立即停止运行。
综上所述,本实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法,用户终端获取PDCCH跳过时段信息,该跳过时段信息指示跳过时段;在该跳过时段内,停止对PDCCH的监听;其中,在该跳过时段内,用户终端跳过在第一DRX周期中的激活时间,有效的节省了用户终端的耗电量。该方法还可以在激活时间的剩余时间内停止对PDCCH的监听,用户终端无需执行完在上述剩余时间内对PDCCH监听即可停止,有效的控制用户终端对PDCCH的监听,且更加减少了用户终端的耗电量。
在基于图2的一些可选实施例中,上述跳过时段可以是针对DRX的周期长短分别配置的,可选地,上述跳过时段包括:第一跳过时段和/或第二跳过时段; 其中,第一跳过时段是适用于DRX短周期的跳过时段,第二跳过时段是适用于DRX长周期的跳过时段,第一跳过时段和第二跳过时段不同。
可选地,上述第一跳过时段大于第二跳过时段,即适用于DRX短周期的跳过时段大于适用于DRX长周期的跳过时段。示例性的,短周期与长周期的DRX被配置的跳过时段不同,如表1,时长a1至a2的周期为第一短周期,第一短周期被配置的跳过时段为t1;时长b1至b2的周期为第一长周期,第一长周期被配置的跳过时段为t2。
表1
周期时长 周期 跳过时段
a1至a2 第一短周期 t1
b1至b2 第一长周期 t2
示例性的,不同短周期的DRX被配置的跳过时段不同,不同长周期的DRX被配置的跳过时段也不同,如表2,时长a1至a2的周期为第一短周期,第一短周期被配置的跳过时段为t1;时长a3至a4的周期为第二短周期,第二短周期被配置的跳过时段为t3;时长b1至b2的周期为第一长周期,第一长周期被配置的跳过时段为t2;时长b3至b4的周期为第二长周期,第二长周期被配置的跳过时段为t4。
表2
周期时长 周期 跳过时段
a1至a2 第一短周期 t1
a3至a4 第二短周期 t3
b1至b2 第一长周期 t2
b3至b4 第二长周期 t4
示例性的,可以是不同原因触发的DRX短周期被配置的跳过时段不同。以DRX短周期的触发原因不同进行举例说明,在用户终端接收到MAC CE后触发第一DRX短周期,其被配置的跳过时段为t5;在用户终端的非激活定时器超时之后触发第二DRX短周期,其被配置的跳过时段为t6。其中,上述第一DRX短周期与第二DRX短周期的周期时长可以相同也可以不同,t5与t6不同。
需要说明的是,在另一种情形下,网络设备可以通知用户终端上述PDCCH跳过时段信息不用于DRX长周期。可选地,第二跳过时段为零,即适用于DRX长周期的第二跳过时段被配置为零。其中,网络设备将第二跳过时段配置为零, 即是隐式指示上述PDCCH跳过信令不用于DRX长周期。
在另一种情形下,网络设备可以通知用户终端上述PDCCH跳过时段信息不用于DRX短周期。可选地,第一跳过时段为零,即适用于DRX短周期的第一跳过时段被配置为零。其中,网络设备将第一跳过时段配置为零,即是隐式指示上述PDCCH跳过信令不用于DRX短周期。
综上所述,本实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法,上述跳过时段是按照DRX的周期长短配置的,其中,为DRX短周期配置较长的跳过时段,DRX短周期将被跳过更多的时长,使用户终端更加省电;还有,配置给DRX短周期与DRX长周期的跳过时段不同,该跳过时段的配置方式针对周期时长不同设置不同的跳过时段,在使用户终端更加省电的情况下,保证将延迟降低至最小。
在基于图2的一些可选实施例中,上述跳过时段可以是针对主辅载波分别配置的,可选地,上述跳过时段包括:第三跳过时段和/或第四跳过时段;其中,第三跳过时段是适用于主载波(Primary Component Carrier,PCC)上DRX周期的跳过时段,第四跳过时段是适用于辅载波(Secondary Component Carrier,SCC)上DRX周期的跳过时段,第三跳过时段与第四跳过时段不同。示例性的,PCC上的第三跳过时段为3s,SCC上的第四跳过时段为6s。
可选地,第四跳过时段大于第三跳过时段,即相对于主载波上的第三跳过时段,在辅载波上使用时长更长的第四跳过时段,使用户终端更加省电。示例性的,第四跳过时段为5秒(second,s),第三跳过时段为2s。
可选地,第四跳过时段大于第二跳过时段,其中,第二跳过时段是适用于DRX长周期的跳过时段;即适用于SCC上DRX周期的跳过时段大于DRX长周期的跳过时段。示例性的,第四跳过时段为6s,第二跳过时段为3s。
需要说明的是,在另一种情形下,网络设备向用户终端通知的PDCCH跳过信令不用于主载波;可选地,第三跳过时段为零。其中,网络设备将第三跳过时段配置为零,即是隐式指示上述PDCCH跳过信令不用于主载波。
在另一种情形下,PDCCH跳过信令被配置为用户终端接入指定的辅服务小区组(Serving cell group,Scell group)内执行。也就是说,用户终端在接入指定的辅服务小区组内之后被允许执行PDCCH跳过信令,在接入非指定的辅服务小区组内之后无需执行PDCCH跳过信令。
综上所述,本实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法,上述跳过时段是按照主 辅载波分别配置的,辅载波上被配置的第四跳过时段比主载波上的第三跳过时段更长,在辅载波上停止监听的时长更长,使用户终端更省电。
在基于图2的一些可选实施例中,上述跳过时段可以是针对载波频段分别配置的,可选地,上述跳过时段包括:第五跳过时段和/或第六跳过时段;其中,按3GPP对5G频率范围定义,分为FR1(450MHz-6000MHz,又被称为Sub-6GHz)和FR2(24250MHz-52600MHz,又称为Above-6GHz或毫米波),第五跳过时段是适用于FR1频段DRX组的DRX周期的跳过时段,第六跳过时段是适用于FR2频段DRX组的DRX周期的跳过时段,第五跳过时段与第六跳过时段不同。
可选地,第五跳过时段小于第六跳过时段,即在辅载波使用FR2的场景中,因为FR2上的带宽更大、数据传输更快,因此,对FR2上PDCCH的监听时长可以少于对主载波的监听时长,因此,适用于FR2频段的DRX周期的跳过时段大于适用于FR1频段的DRX周期的跳过时段。在辅载波使用FR2的场景中,通过更大的跳过时段还能够使用户终端更加节省电量。
需要说明的是,在一种情形下,网络设备通知用户终端PDCCH跳过信令不用于FR1上的DRX组,即第五跳过时段为零。其中,网络设备将第五跳过时段配置为零,即是隐式指示上述PDCCH跳过信令不用于FR1上的DRX组。
综上所述,本实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法,上述跳过时段是按照载波频率分别配置的,在FR1与FR2场景中配置的跳过时段不同;在辅载波使用FR2的场景中,由于FR2上的带宽更大、数据传输更快,因此,对FR2上PDCCH的监听时长可以少于对FR1场景下的监听时长,因此,辅载波上被配置的第四跳过时段比第二跳过时段更长,即在FR2场景上停止监听的时长更长,使用户终端更加省电。
图7示出了本申请一个示例性实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法的示意图,可以应用于如图1所示的网络设备中。该方法包括:
步骤301,网络设备针对用户终端确定PDCCH跳过时段信息。
上述PDCCH跳过时段信息指示跳过时段;在该跳过时段中,用户终端跳过在第一DRX周期中的激活时间。网络设备针对用户终端确定跳过时段,进而确定PDCCH跳过时段信息。
需要说明的是,网络设备为用户终端配置跳过时段的详细内容可以参考如上用户终端侧实施例中的细节描述,在此不再加以赘述。
步骤302,网络设备向用户终端发送PDCCH跳过时段信息。
可选地,上述跳过时段携带在下行控制指示信令、无线资源控制信令、媒体接入控制信令中的至少一种信令中。即网络设备将上述跳过时段携带在下行控制指示信令、无线资源控制信令、媒体接入控制信令中的至少一种信令中,通过信令向用户终端发送PDCCH跳过时段信息。
可选地,网络设备还向用户终端配置参数n,参数n用于指示跳过时段对接收时刻之后的n个DRX周期生效,n个DRX周期中包括第一DRX周期,其中,n为正整数。如图4,网络设备向用户终端配置参数3;接收时刻在DRX周期5之前的一个DRX周期,则跳过时段对DRX周期5、DRX周期6、以及DRX周期7生效。
综上所述,本实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法,网络设备向用户终端配置跳过时段,该跳过时段中包括用户终端在第一DRX周期中的激活时间;控制用户终端在跳过时段内停止对PDCCH进行监听,有效的节省了用户终端的耗电量。
在一些可选的实施例中,上述第一跳过时段是用于在用户终端接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期的跳过时段,如图8,示出了本申请一个示例性实施例提供的用户终端的省电方法的示意图,可以应用于如图1所示的用户终端与网络设备中。该方法包括:
步骤401,网络设备针对用户终端确定PDCCH跳过时段信息,PDCCH跳过时段信息指示跳过时段。
上述跳过时段包括第一跳过时段,第一跳过时段是适用于用户终端接收到MAC CE后触发DRX短周期的跳过时段。
可选地,上述跳过时段还包括第二跳过时段,第二跳过时段是适用于DRX长周期的跳过时段。可选地,第二跳过时段还适用于不是由用户终端接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期的跳过时段。
上述第一跳过时段与DRX长周期的第二跳过时段不同。可选地,第一跳过时段大于第二跳过时段。示例性的,第一跳过时段为3s,第二跳过时段为1s。
步骤402,网络设备向用户终端发送PDCCH跳过时段信息。
步骤403,用户终端接收网络设备发送的PDCCH跳过时段信息。
步骤404,在用户终端中配置跳过时段,跳过时段中包括第一跳过时段。
在用户终端中配置第一跳过时段。可选地,在用户终端中配置第二跳过时段。
步骤405,用户终端处于接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期时,在第一跳过时段内停止对PDCCH的监听。
需要说明的是,用户终端处于接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期,此时可以认定后续PDCCH上的数据传输量较少,则该用户终端选择时长较长的第一跳过时段,来控制PDCCH的停止监听时间;若用户终端处于DRX长周期,或者用户终端所处的DRX短周期不是接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期,则该用户终端选择第二跳过时段,来控制PDCCH的停止监听时间。其中,第一跳过时段大于第二跳过时段。
示例性的,用户终端在接收到GTS之后,若处于接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期,在第一跳过时段内停止对PDCCH的监听;若处于DRX长周期,或者用户终端所处的DRX短周期不是接收到MAC CE后触发的DRX短周期,在第二跳过时段内停止对PDCCH的监听。

需要说明的是,若用户终端处于非激活定时器超时后触发的DRX短周期,此时可以认定后续PDCCH上的数据传输量较大,则该用户终端选择时长较短的第一跳过时段,来控制PDCCH的停止监听时间;若用户终端处于DRX长周期,或者用户终端处于的DRX短周期不是非激活定时器超时后触发的DRX短周期,则该用户终端选择第二跳过时段,来控制PDCCH的停止监听时间;其中,第一跳过时段小于第二跳过时段。
示例性的,用户终端在接收到GTS之后,若处于非激活定时器超时后触发的DRX短周期,在第一跳过时段内停止对PDCCH的监听;若处于DRX长周期,或者用户终端处于的DRX短周期不是非激活定时器超时后触发的DRX短周期,在第二跳过时段内停止对PDCCH的监听。
