Description

指示LBT失败的方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域。
背景技术
为了在未授权频段上提供3GPP服务,引入了以下机制:通话前监听(Listen Before Talk,LBT)以及发现信号测量定时配置(Discovery RS Measurement Timing Configuration,DMTC)。其中,低层执行LBT过程,根据LBT结果,如果信道确定被占用,不进行传输。当低层在传输前执行了LBT过程且该传输未执行,即上行传输由于LBT失败被阻止时,低层向高层指示LBT失败。
应该注意,上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便,对本发明的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明,并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本发明的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
在未授权频段上的新无线(NR-U)系统中,引入了上行传输的持续LBT失败检测和恢复机制。
无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)层可以为高层,例如MAC层的MAC实体配置持续LBT失败的恢复过程。持续LBT失败的检测是在每个上行BWP(Bandwidth part)上进行的。为此引入一个计数器和一个定时器,当上行LBT失败发生时,启动或重启定时器,每当高层(例如MAC层)收到来自低层(例如物理层)的上行LBT失败指示时,计数器加1,当该计数器的计数值超过预设的数值时,触发持续LBT失败。另外当定时器超时时,该计数器重置。该过程可以看作持续(上行)LBT失败检测过程或持续(上行)LBT失败检测过程的一部分或一个步骤。
发明人发现,按照现有的机制,为了实现高层的上行传输的持续LBT失败检测机制,低层需要为MAC层提供指示,即任意上行传输由于LBT失败被阻止或信道接入失败(channel access failure)时,低层通知或指示给高层。
但是,在低层,包括数据、控制信息和参考信号的上行传输可能随时发生,如果 每当上行传输由于LBT失败被阻止时,低层就通知或指示给高层,会大大增加低层和高层的层间交互,并增加终端设备的耗电。

下面结合附图对本申请实施例的各种实施方式进行说明。这些实施方式只是示例性的,不是对本发明的限制。
实施例1
本申请实施例提供了一种指示LBT失败的方法,该方法应用于终端设备。
图4是本申请实施例1的指示LBT失败的方法的一示意图。如图4所示,该方法包括:
步骤401:在低层或高层判断满足第一条件和/或第二条件的情况下,当上行传输由于LBT失败而被阻止时,低层向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者,低层开始向高层通知或指示LBT失败;和/或,
步骤402:在低层或高层判断不满足该第一条件和/或满足第三条件的情况下,当上行传输由于LBT失败而被阻止时,低层不向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者低层停止向高层通知或指示LBT失败。
在本申请实施例中,该方法可以包括步骤401中步骤402中的一个,也可以包括步骤401和步骤402这两个步骤,当该方法包括步骤401和步骤402这两个步骤时,不对步骤401和步骤402的执行顺序进行限制。
由此,低层或高层先判断是否满足相关的条件,基于判断的结果,当上行传输由于LBT失败而被阻止时,确定低层是否向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者确定低层是否开始或停止向高层通知或指示LBT失败,这样,能够减少低层和高层的层间交互,从而减少终端设备的耗电。
在本申请实施例中,低层例如是物理层,高层例如是MAC层。
以下,针对低层或高层判断是否满足各个具体条件,对各种情况进行示例性的说明。
情况1、低层判断是否满足第一条件:图5是本申请实施例1的指示LBT失败的方法的另一示意图。如图5所示,该方法包括:
步骤501:在低层判断满足第一条件的情况下,当上行传输由于LBT失败而被阻止时,低层向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者,低层开始向高层通知或指示LBT失败;和/或,
步骤502:在低层判断不满足该第一条件的情况下,当上行传输由于LBT失败而被阻止时,低层不向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者低层停止向高层通知或指示LBT失败。
在本申请实施例中,该方法可以包括步骤501中步骤502中的一个,也可以包括步骤501和步骤502这两个步骤,当该方法包括步骤501和步骤502这两个步骤时,不对步骤501和步骤502的执行顺序进行限制。

也就是说,当该终端设备是NR-U终端、该终端设备是NR终端、该终端设备是NR-U终端或NR终端、该上行传输或该终端设备进行共享频谱信道接入操作、该上行传输是网络设备调度或配置的上行传输、该上行传输不是授权辅助接入(Licensed Assisted Access,LAA)或增强型授权辅助接入(Enhanced Licensed Assisted Access, eLAA)、该终端设备不是进行授权辅助接入或增强型授权辅助接入、以及该上行传输不是自动上行传输中的至少一个成立时,低层向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者,低层开始向高层通知或指示LBT失败。另外,当以上列出的所有条件都不成立时,低层不向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者低层停止向高层通知或指示LBT失败。
或者,也可以说,对于NR-U终端、NR终端、NR-U终端或NR终端、进行共享频谱信道接入操作、网络设备调度或配置的上行传输、非LAA或eLAA、以及非AUL中的至少一个,低层向高层通知或指示LBT失败,或者,低层开始向高层通知或指示LBT失败。
根据情况1所述的方法,不仅能够减少低层和高层的层间交互,从而减少终端设备的耗电,且该方法较为简单,对标准影响小,并且能够降低终端设备的成本,也能降低测试成本。
在本申请的至少一个实施例中,在步骤501中,通知或指示LBT失败,包括:发送一个通知或指示,或者,发送一个通知或指示和执行LBT的对象。
也就是说,可以通过低层向高层发送的一个通知或指示进行上述通知或指示,也可以是通过低层向高层发送的一个通知或指示以及执行LBT的对象来进行上述通知或指示。
例如,发送的该通知或指示可以是以下通知或指示中的一个:
通用的通知或指示(generic indication or notification);
特定用途的通知或指示,例如,持续UL LBT失败检测的指示,或者,随机接入前导码的指示,或者,配置的授权的指示,或者,调度请求(Scheduling Request,SR)的指示;
通过不同的服务访问点(Service Access Point,SAP)或通道或路径由低层发送给高层的通知或指示;以及
提供给不同高层过程或功能或实体的通知或指示,例如,该高层过程或功能或实体是指以下中的至少一个:持续LBT失败检测、随机接入过程、随机接入前导码传输、混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request,HARQ)、上行配置的授权的传输以及调度请求(SR)。
在本申请的至少一个实施例中,对于通过低层向高层发送的一个通知或指示以及执行LBT的对象来进行上述通知或指示的情况,执行LBT的对象可以通过上行资源 或者与上行资源对应的索引表征。
例如,该上行资源包括随机接入的资源(RA/PRACH occasion)、调度请求(SR)的一个有效的PUCCH资源以及配置的授权中的至少一个。
对于执行LBT的对象通过与上行资源对应的索引表征的情况,例如,定义一种映射关系,该对象可以用相应的索引表征,例如:定义随机接入的资源(RA/PRACH occasion)对应索引1,SR的一个有效的PUCCH资源对应索引2,配置的授权对应索引3。
在本申请的至少一个实施例中,当低层判断满足第一条件时且低层判断满足第四条件时,低层向高层通知或指示LBT失败。这样,通过进一步限制条件,能够进一步减少低层和高层的层间交互,从而进一步减少终端设备的耗电。
