具体实施方式
为了能够更加详尽地了解本发明实施例的特点与技术内容,下面结合附图对本发明实施例的实现进行详细阐述,所附附图仅供参考说明之用,并非用来限定本发明实施例。
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
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)、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)通信系统或5G系统等。
示例性的,本申请实施例应用的通信系统100可以如图1所示。该通信系统100可以包括网络设备110,网络设备110可以是与UE120(或称为通信终端设备、终端设备)通信的设备。网络设备110可以为特定的地理区域提供通信覆盖,并且可以与位于该覆盖区域内的UE进行通信。可选地,该网络设备110可以是GSM系统或CDMA系统中的网络设备(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),也可以是WCDMA系统中的网络设备(NodeB,NB),还可以是LTE系统中的演进型网络设备(Evolutional Node B,eNB或eNodeB),或者是云无线接入网络(Cloud Radio Access Network,CRAN)中的无线控制器,或者该网络设备可以为移动交换中心、中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备、集线器、交换机、网桥、路由器、5G网络中的网络侧设备或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)中的网络设备等。
该通信系统100还包括位于网络设备110覆盖范围内的至少一个UE120。作为在此使用的“UE”包括但不限于经由有线线路连接,如经由公共交换电话网络(Public Switched Telephone Networks,PSTN)、数字用户线路(Digital Subscriber Line,DSL)、数字电缆、直接电缆连接;和/或另一数据连接/网络;和/或经由无线接口,如,针对蜂窝网络、无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Network,WLAN)、诸如DVB-H网络的数字电视网络、卫星网络、AM-FM广播发送器;和/或另一UE的被设置成接收/发送通信信号的装置;和/或物联网(Internet of Things,IoT)设备。被设置成通过无线接口通信的UE可以被称为“无线通信终端设备”、“无线终端设备”或“移动终端设备”。
可选地,UE120之间可以进行终端设备直连(Device to Device,D2D)通信。
应理解,本文中术语“系统”和“网络”在本文中常被可互换使用。本文中术语“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,本文中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
随着人们对速率、延迟、高速移动性、能效的追求以及未来生活中业务的多样性、复杂性,为此3GPP国际标准组织开始研发5G。5G的主要应用场景为:增强移动超宽带(eMBB)、低时延高可靠通信(URLLC)、大规模机器类通信(mMTC)。
NR也可以独立部署,5G网络环境中为了降低空口信令和快速恢复无线连接,快速恢复数据业务的目的,定义一个新的RRC状态,即RRC_INACTIVE状态。这种状态有别于RRC_IDLE和RRC_ACTIVE状态。其中,
RRC_IDLE:移动性为基于UE的小区选择重选,寻呼由CN发起,寻呼区域由CN配置。基站侧不存在UE AS上下文。不存在RRC连接。
RRC_CONNECTED:存在RRC连接,基站和UE存在UE AS上下文。网络侧知道UE的位置是具体小区级别的。移动性是网络侧控制的移动性。UE和基站之间可以传输单播数据。
RRC_INACTIVE:移动性为基于UE的小区选择重选,存在CN-NR之间的连接,UE AS上下文存在某个基站上,寻呼由RAN触发,基于RAN的寻呼区域由RAN管理,网络侧知道UE的位置是基于RAN的寻呼区域级别的。
无线链路监测(RLM:radio link monitoring)是监听服务小区下行链路的信道质量,物理层在规定时间内评估无线链路质量,并与Qin,Qout门限(SINR)比较,如果低于Qout,则物理层向高层上报out-of-sync指示,如果高于Qin则物理层向高层上报in-sync指示。Qout和Qin门限是通过检测PDCCH format 1-0的BLER来确定Qin和Qout。其中Qin和Qout对应的BLER值是通过RRC信令per cell配置的。缺省默认值对于Qout,PDCCH的BLER为10%,Qin对应的BLER为2%。
UE在网络侧的下行失步判定涉及到如下几个定时器和常量,N310,T310,N311。这些定时器和常量参数,可以通过专用信令配置给UE(RLF-TimersAndConstants IE),如果没有配置则使用系统广播(SIB1)里面的参数(ue-TimersAndConstants IE)。
当UE处于RRC_CONNECTED状态,收到连续N310个“out_of_Sync”且T310,T301,T304,T311没有运行,则启动定时器T310。如果在定时器超时前收到连续N311个“in_Sync”则停止定时器T310,说明UE已经恢复下行同步。否则UE处于下行失步状态,即RLF。
上述RLM配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig),可以为网络设备通过RRC重配置消息为终端设备配置的,其中可以包括:配置终端设备进行无线链路检测(RLM)的SSB/CSI-RS参考信号。进行RLM测量的时候,可以每间隔一个指示的测量间隔就评估一下新到质量。测量间隔(可以称为Indication period)的确定分为:
没配置DRX时:10ms和最小RLM参考信号周期两者中的最大值;
配置DRX时,10ms、最小RLM参考信号周期和DRX周期三者中的最大值。
在每个indication period,物理层向RRC层可能上报Qin对应的同步指示,可能上报Qout对应的失败指示,也可能什么都不报。
在NR Rel-17终端节能项目中,计划对RLM引入测量放松(本申请将其称为放松RLM模式),其中讨论的内容包括:Study the feasibility and performance impact of relaxing UE measurements for RLM and/or BFD,particularly for low mobility UE with short DRX periodicity/cycle,and specify,if agreed,relaxation in the corresponding requirements[RAN4](研究放松针对RLM和/或BFD的UE测量的可行性和性能影响,特别是对于具有短DRX周期性/周期的低移动性的终端设备,并在同意的情况下指定放松测量要求)。那么如何启动放松RLM模式的测量是本申请所要解决的问题。
为了能够更加详尽地了解本发明实施例的特点与技术内容,下面结合附图对本发明实施例的实现进行详细阐述,所附附图仅供参考说明之用,并非用来限定本发明实施例。
本发明实施例提供一种RLM模式转换方法,如图2所示,包括:
步骤21:终端设备根据RLM转换条件,确定不同的RLM模式之间的转换;
其中,所述RLM转换条件至少与所述终端设备连续收到的同步指示或失步指示的计数值相关;
所述RLM模式包括:正常RLM模式以及放松RLM模式,所述正常RLM模式的测量间隔小于放松RLM模式的测量间隔。
结合多个示例对本实施例提供的方案进行说明:
示例1、
本示例中,所述第一RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第一数量门限值;
所述第二RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第二数量门限值。
所述第一数量门限值和第二数量门限值,为预设的、或者为网络设备配置的。其中,预设的可以为终端设备根据协议进行预设的;网络设备配置,可以理解为网络设备通过配置信息为终端设备预配置的,具体的,网络设备可以通过无线资源控制(RRC,Radio Resource Control)重配置消息为终端设备配置的。
其中,终端设备接收到同步指示或失步指示,具体可以为终端设备的RRC层接收到同步指示;或者终端设备的RRC层接收到失步指示。
相应的,所述终端设备根据RLM转换条件,确定不同的RLM模式之间的转换,包括:
所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式进行链路检测的情况下,若满足第一RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
或者,
所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式进行链路检测的情况下,若满足第二RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
下面结合图3,以网络设备通过RRC信息为终端设备进行配置的场景,对本示例进行说明:
步骤31、终端设备接收网络设备的RRC重配置消息;
具体的,终端设备可以为处于连接态;网络设备可以为接入网设备,比如,可以为基站(eNB、gNB等等)。
所述RRC重配置消息可以包括:无线链路监测配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig)和无线链路失败(RLF)-定时器和常量(TimersAndConstants)配置等。
具体来说,所述RRC重配置消息可以包括以下至少之一:
1、failureDetectionResources(失败检测资源)配置,其中可以包括用于无线链路监测的SSB/CSI-RS资源配置;
2、RLF(无线链路失败,Radio Link Failure)定时器的相关参数,比如,N310,N311,T310等参数;
3、所述RRC重配置消息还可以包括:第一数量门限值以及第二数量门限值。
比如,第一数量门限值可以表示为M1,第二数门限值可以表示为N1;所述M1和N1为终端设备执行RLM模式切换的数量门限。其中,M1为RRC层从物理层接收到连续的同步指(in-sync)示的最大次数;N1为RRC层从物理层接收到连续的失步(out-of-sync)指示的最大次数。
本实施例中关于计数值的计数处理可以通过计数器或称为counter来实现,由于本实施例中涉及到同步指示的计数值以及失步指示的计数值,相应的,可以通过设置两个counter(计数器)来实现,可以分别将同步指示的计数器表示为M1-counter,失步指示的计数器表示为N1-counter。
需要指出的是,第一数量门限值以及第二数量门限值,可以作为无线链路监测配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig)中的参数,也可以为无线链路失败(RLF)-定时器和常量(TimersAndConstants)配置中的参数;当然,还可以为除上述两种配置之外单独配置的参数,本示例中不对其进行限定。
步骤32、基于网络配置,终端设备缺省处于正常RLM模式。
步骤33、所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式进行链路检测的情况下,若满足第一RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式。
在一示例中,所述第一RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备的RRC层连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第一数量门限值。
也就是说,终端设备在正常RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果RRC层收到连续的同步指示,对连续接收到的同步指示的计数值进行计数得到对应的计数值,如果该计数值达到第一数量门限值,则终端设备确定进入放松RLM模式;否则,保持在正常RLM模式。
进一步地,所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用正常RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。
该正常RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
本步骤涉及到如何对同步指示进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对同步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第一条件,则终端设备将同步指示的计数值加一;所述第一条件包括:终端设备处于正常RLM模式的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示。
也就是,终端设备如果处于正常RLM模式,那么终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”(同步)指示,将M1_counter(同步指示的计数值)自加1。
若满足第二条件,则终端设备对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置;
所述第二条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到失步指示;
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程。
其中,终端设备进入正常RLM模式,可以存在两种可能,一种是终端设备由放松RLM模式进入正常RLM模式,另一种是终端设备默认直接进入正常RLM模式。
所述终端设备收到失步指示,可以为RRC层收到物理层的失步(out-of-sync)指示。
执行完成步骤33之后,终端设备可以由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;进一步地,本示例还可以包括:
步骤34:所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式进行链路检测的情况下,若满足第二RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
所述第二RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备的RRC层连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第二数量门限值。
也就是说,终端设备在放松RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果RRC层收到连续的失步指示,对连续接收到的失步指示的计数值进行计数得到对应的计数值,如果该计数值达到第二数量门限值,则终端设备确定进入放松RLM模式;否则,保持在放松RLM模式。
进一步地,所述终端设备进入放松RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用放松RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。
该放松RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
关于放松RLM模式以及正常RLM模式,两者对应的测量要求的区别在于,正常RLM模式可以采用第一测量间隔,放松RLM模式可以采用第二测量间隔,并且第一测量间隔小于第二测量间隔。
本步骤涉及到如何对失步指示的计数值进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对失步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对失步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第三条件,则所述终端设备将失步指示的计数值加一;所述第三条件包括:所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。
也就是,终端设备如果处于放松RLM模式,那么终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“out-of-sync”(失步)指示,将N1_counter(失步指示的计数值)自加1。
若满足第四条件,则所述终端设备对失步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置;
所述第四条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到同步指示(也就是“in-sync”指示);
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程。
至此完成本示例的全部流程,结合图4对本示例进行说明,从图4中可以看出正常RLM模式的测量间隔比放松RLM模式的测量间隔小;图中的实线箭头表示同步指示,虚线箭头表示失步指示;第一数量门限值可以为M1假设等于8,第二数量门限值可以为N1假设等于4。具体的:
图4中,左侧进入正常RLM模式后,RRC层收到第一个同步指示的时候,满足第一条件可以将同步指示的计数值加1,第二个为连续接收的同步指示,满足第一条件将同步指示的计数值加1;第三个接收到失步指示,那么根据第二条件的要求可以看出终端设备可以将同步指示的计数值置0;再往后,连续接收到8个同步指示,同步指示的计数值计数值达到8,也就是网络设备配置的第一数量门限值(称为M1),因此确定进入放松RLM模式;
图中终端设备进入放松RLM模式后,满足第四条件,可以先将失步指示的计数值初始化为0;在接收到第一个指示为失步指示,根据第三条件可以确定可以对失步指示的计数值加1;然后连续接收到两个同步指示,根据第四条件,可以确定将失步指示的计数值进行重置;然后,连续接收到4个失步指示,根据第三条件可以确定连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,执行4次计数值加1的处理后,失步指示的计数值达到第二数量门限值(N1),则确定从放松RLM模式转换至正常RLM模式。
采用本示例,连续第一数量门限值(M1)个同步指示代表信道足够好,可以预测近期链路变差的可能性不大,因此可以节能进入放松RLM模式;连续第二数量门限值(N1)个失步指示则代表信道开始变差,终端设备切换回正常RLM模式可以避免对无线链路失败检测带来更多的延时。
示例2、
与示例1不同在于,本示例在示例1的基础上,增加时间的限定,具体的:
所述第三RLM转换条件包括:在第一时长内,所述终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第三数量门限值;也就是在一段时间内RRC层只收到“in-sync”同步指示,且“in-sync”同步指示数量大于第三数量门限值(M2)。
所述第五RLM转换条件包括:在第二时长内,所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第四数量门限值。也就是,在一段时间内RRC层只收到“out-of-sync”失步指示,且“out-of-sync” 失步指示数量大于一个第四数量门限值(N2)。
本实施例中关于计数值的计数处理可以通过计数器或称为counter来实现,由于本实施例中涉及到同步指示的计数值以及失步指示的计数值,相应的,可以通过设置两个counter(计数器)来实现,可以分别将同步指示的计数器表示为M2-counter,失步指示的计数器表示为N2-counter。
相应的,所述终端设备根据RLM转换条件,确定不同的RLM模式之间的转换,包括:
所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式的情况下,若满足第三RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
或者,所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式的情况下,若满足第五RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
所述第一时长、所述第二时长、所述第三数量门限值、所述第四数量门限值,为预设的、或者为网络设备配置的。
所述第一时长为第一定时器的定时时长,第二时长为第二定时器的定时时长。也就是说,通过维护第一定时器以及第二定时器,来对终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值以及时长、以及对终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值以及时长进行判断,进而确定是否进行RLM模式的转换。
下面结合图5,以网络设备通过RRC信息为终端设备进行所述第一时长、所述第二时长、所述第三数量门限值、所述第四数量门限值的配置的场景,对本示例进行说明:
步骤51、终端设备接收网络设备的RRC重配置消息;
具体的,终端设备可以为处于连接态;网络设备可以为接入网设备,比如,可以为基站(eNB、gNB等等)。
所述RRC重配置消息可以包括:无线链路监测配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig)和无线链路失败(RLF)-定时器和常量(TimersAndConstants)配置等。
具体来说,所述RRC重配置消息可以包括以下至少之一:
1、failureDetectionResources(失败检测资源)配置,其中可以包括用于无线链路监测的SSB/CSI-RS资源配置;
2、RLF(无线链路失败,Radio Link Failure)定时器的相关参数,比如,N310,N311,T310等参数;
3、所述RRC重配置消息还可以包括:第三数量门限值(M2)以及第四数量门限值(N2),还包括第一定时器的定时时长(T1),以及第二定时器的定时时长(T2)参数等。
其中,所述M2和N2为用于执行RLM模式切换的计数值(counter)门限(或称为数量门限值),所述T1和T2为用于执行RLM模式切换的定时器时长;其中,M2为T1运行时间内RRC层从物理层接收到连续的“in-sync”同步指示的最大次数,N2为T2运行时间内RRC层从物理层接收到连续的“out-of-sync”失步指示的最大次数。
步骤52、基于网络配置,终端设备缺省处于正常RLM模式。
步骤53、所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式的情况下,若满足第三RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式。
所述第三RLM转换条件包括:在第一时长内,所述终端设备的RRC层连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第三数量门限值。
也就是说,终端设备在正常RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果在时间T1内RRC层只收到“in-sync”同步指示,且“in-sync”同步指示的计数值大于M2,则进入放松RLM模式,并指示给物理层启用放松RLM的requirement;否则,保持正常RLM模式。
进一步地,所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用正常RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。
该正常RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
本步骤涉及到如何对同步指示的计数值进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对同步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第五条件,则终端设备将同步指示的计数值加一;
所述第五条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备处于正常RLM模式、所述第一定时器处于运行状态的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示;
所述终端设备处于正常RLM模式、所述第一定时器未运行、以及同步指示的计数值为0的情况 下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示。
也就是,终端设备如果处于正常RLM模式,第一定时器(T1)正在运行,那么终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”(同步)指示,则将M2_counter(同步指示的计数值)自加1;
或者,终端设备如果处于正常RLM模式,M2_counter(同步指示的计数值)为0、且第一定时器(T1)没有运行,此时终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”同步指示,将M2_counter(同步指示的计数值)自加1(此时,可以还包括启动T1的处理)。
对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置的处理可以包括:
若满足第六条件,则终端设备对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置;
所述第六条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到失步指示;
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程;
所述第一定时器超时。
其中,终端设备进入正常RLM模式,可以存在两种可能,一种是终端设备由放松RLM模式进入正常RLM模式,另一种是终端设备默认直接进入正常RLM模式。
所述终端设备收到失步指示,可以为RRC层收到物理层的失步(out-of-sync)指示。
本步骤与示例1的步骤33不同还在于,本示例增加第一定时器以及第二定时器的定时时长,在正常RLM模式下如果接收到同步指示,那么可以运行第一定时器,关于停止第一定时器的处理方式可以包括:
所述终端设备在满足以下条件时停止第一定时器:
终端设备处于正常RLM模式、并且第一定时器在运行期间的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示;也就是终端设备处于正常RLM模式,T1(第一定时器)正在运行,RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“Out-of-sync”失步指示,此时可以停止第一定时器的计时,也就是在正常RLM模式下如果一旦收到失步指示那么针对同步指示的计数值需要重置,此时相应的需要停止第一定时器的计时。
或者,所述终端设备由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式。也就是说,如果终端设备切换至放松RLM模式,就不再需要维护第一定时器的计时,此时可以停止第一定时器。
关于启动或重启第一定时器的处理方式可以包括:所述终端设备在满足以下条件时启动或重启第一定时器:终端设备处于正常RLM模式、并且同步指示的计数值为0的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示。也就是说,终端设备处于正常RLM模式,同步指示的计数值(M2_counter)为0,此时如果RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”同步指示,启动或重启第一定时器开始计时。
可以存在两种情况,一种情况中,同步指示的计数值为0,那么可以认为刚刚进入正常RLM模式,此时如果收到同步指示,可以启动第一定时器;或者,另一种情况中,终端设备已经处于正常RLM模式,但是之前接收到了失步指示导致第一定时器停止,此时如果再接收到同步指示,那么可以重启第一定时器。
一种示例中,前述第一定时器以及同步指示的计数值的处理,可以包括:如果终端设备进入正常RLM模式,将同步指示的计数值也初始化;
在接收到同步指示的时候,满足第五条件,将同步指示的计数值加1,并且将第一定时器初始化;
然后,可以包括以下几种处理:
一种处理中、如果连续接收到同步指示,那么就连续的将同步指示的计数值加1,并且保持第一定时器的运行(也就是保持第一定时器的运行状态),如果连续收到同步指示的计数值达到第三数量门限值、并且第一定时器未超时,也就是满足第三RLM转换条件,此时可以确定转换为放松RLM模式,同时停止第一定时器。
再一种处理中、如果连续接收到同步指示,那么就连续的将同步指示的计数值加1,并且保持第一定时器的运行(也就是保持第一定时器的运行状态),如果连续收到同步指示的计数值未达到第三数量门限值、并且第一定时器未超时,此时接收到失步指示,此时满足停止第一定时器的条件,则将第一定时器停止,并且满足第六条件,此时将同步指示的计数值进行重置为0,终端设备保持在正常RLM模式下。
需要指出的是,这种处理中,仅示意性的描述了第六条件中的一种,第六条件的其他情况虽然没有结合示例进行说明,但是也在本示例的保护范围内,只是不再穷举。
执行完成步骤53之后,终端设备可以由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;进一步地,本示例还可以包括:
步骤54:所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式的情况下,若满足第五RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
所述第五RLM转换条件包括:在第二时长内,所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第四数量门限值。
也就是说,终端设备在放松RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果在时间T2(第二时长)内RRC层只收到“Out-of-sync”失步指示,且“Out-of-sync”失步指示的计数值大于N2(第四数量门限值),则UE进入正常RLM模式,并指示给物理层启用正常RLM的requirement;否则,保持放松RLM模式。
进一步地,所述终端设备进入放松RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用放松RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。
该放松RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
关于放松RLM模式以及正常RLM模式,两者对应的测量要求的区别在于,正常RLM模式可以采用第一测量间隔,放松RLM模式可以采用第二测量间隔,并且第一测量间隔小于第二测量间隔。
本步骤涉及到如何对失步指示的计数值进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对失步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对失步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第七条件,则终端设备将失步指示的计数值加一:
所述第七条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式、并且所述第二定时器在运行期间的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。也就是终端设备处于放松RLM模式,第二定时器正在运行,RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“out-of-sync”失步指示,将失步指示的计数值(N2_counter)自加1。
或者,所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式、所述第二定时器未运行、以及同步指示的计数值为0的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。也就是,终端设备处于放松RLM模式,失步指示的计数值(N2_counter)为0且第二定时器没有运行,RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“out-of-sync”失步指示,将失步指示的计数值(N2_counter)自加1。
本示例中,对失步指示的计数值进行重置的方式,可以包括:
若满足第八条件,则所述终端设备对失步指示的计数值进行重置;
所述第八条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到同步指示;
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程;
所述第二定时器超时。
同样的,本步骤与示例1中的步骤34不同还在于,本示例增加针对第二定时器的初始化、重置或停止的处理,具体的:
所述终端设备在满足以下条件时启动或重启第二定时器:终端设备处于放松RLM模式、并且失步指示的计数值为0的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。比如,终端设备处于放松RLM模式,N2_counter(失步指示的计数值)为0,RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“Out-of-sync”失步指示。
所述终端设备在满足以下条件时停止第二定时器:
所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式、并且第二定时器在运行期间的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示;
或者,所述终端设备由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
一种示例中,前述第二定时器以及失步指示的计数值的处理,可以包括:如果终端设备进入放松RLM模式,将失步指示的计数值也重置为0;
在接收到失步指示的时候,将失步指示的计数值加1,并且满足第二定时器的启动条件,此时将第二定时器初始化;
然后,可以包括以下几种处理:
一种处理中、如果连续接收到失步指示,那么就连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,并且保持第二定时器的运行(也就是保持第二定时器的运行状态),如果连续收到失步指示的计数值达到第四数量门限值、并且第二定时器未超时,也就是满足第五RLM转换条件,此时可以确定转换为正常RLM模式,同时停止第二定时器。
再一种处理中、如果连续接收到失步指示,那么就连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,并且保持第二定时器的运行(也就是保持第二定时器的运行状态),如果连续收到失步指示的计数值未达到第四数量门限值、并且第二定时器未超时,此时接收到同步指示,此时满足停止第二定时器的条件,则将第二定时器停止,此时将同步指示的计数值进行重置为0,终端设备保持在正常RLM模式下。
进而,如果再次接收到失步指示,则按照在接收到失步指示的时候,将失步指示的计数值加1,并且满足第二定时器的启动条件,此时将第二定时器初始化然后循环处理,不再赘述。
至此完成本示例的全部流程,结合图6对本示例进行说明,从图6中可以看出正常RLM模式的测量间隔比放松RLM模式的测量间隔小;图中的实线箭头表示同步指示,虚线箭头表示失步指示;第三数量门限值可以为M2假设等于8,第四数量门限值可以为N2假设等于4。具体的:
进入正常RLM模式后,RRC层收到第一个同步指示的时候,将同步指示的计数值加1,同时启动第一定时器(T1),第二、三个接收到失步指示,那么将第一定时器(T1)停止,并且重置同步指示的计数值为0;再往后,连续接收到8个同步指示,同步指示的计数值计数值达到8,也就是网络设备配置的第三数量门限值(称为M2)、并且第一定时器(T1)未超时,因此确定进入放松RLM模式,同时将T1停止;
图中终端设备进入放松RLM模式后,可以先将失步指示的计数值初始化为0;在接收到第一个指示为失步指示,可以对失步指示的计数值加1,并且启动第二定时器(T2);然后连续接收到两个同步指示,将失步指示的计数值进行重置为0,并且停止第二定时器(T2);然后,连续接收到4个失步指示,确定连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,执行4次计数值加1的处理后,失步指示的计数值达到第四数量门限值(N2),并且第二定时器T2未超时,则确定从放松RLM模式转换至正常RLM模式,并且将第二定时器(T2)停止。
采用上述示例,在一段时间内只收到同步指示代表信道质量不差,同步指示的计数值大于一个门限代表信道足够好,可以预测近期链路变差的可能性不大,因此UE可以节能进入放松RLM模式;相反,一段时间内只收到失步指示代表信道开始变差,如果失步指示的计数值大于一个门限,代表信道变差不是偶然事件,终端设备切换回正常RLM模式可以避免对无线链路失败检测带来更多的延时。
示例3、
与示例1不同在于,本示例在示例1的基础上,增加时间的限定,但是与示例2的时间限定不同在于,本示例针对相邻的同步指示,或相邻的失步指示的时间间隔进行限定,具体的:
所述第四RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第五数量门限值,并且相邻的同步指示的时间间隔不大于第三时长。其中,时间间隔的衡量单位可以是指示期(indication Period),也就是说,RRC层收到连续M3(第五数量门限值)个“in-sync”指示,且相邻“in-sync”同步指示相差不超过L1个indication period。
所述第六RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第六数量门限值,并且相邻的失步指示的时间间隔不大于第四时长。其中,时间间隔的衡量单位可以是指示期(indication Period),也就是说,RRC层收到连续N3(第六数量门限值)个“out-of-sync”失步指示,且相邻“out-of-sync”失步指示相差不超过L2个indication period。
相应的,所述终端设备根据RLM转换条件,确定不同的RLM模式之间的转换,包括:
所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式的情况下,若满足第四RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
或者,所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式的情况下,若满足第六RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
所述第三时长、第四时长、所述第五数量门限值、第六数量门限值,为预设的、或者为网络设备配置的。
所述第三时长为第三定时器的定时时长,第四时长为第四定时器的定时时长。也就是说,通过维护第三定时器以及第四定时器,来对终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值以及时长、以及对终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值以及时长进行判断,进而确定是否进行RLM模式的转换。
下面结合图7,以网络设备通过RRC信息为终端设备进行所述第三时长、第四时长、所述第五数量门限值、第六数量门限值的配置的场景,对本示例进行说明:
步骤71、终端设备接收网络设备的RRC重配置消息;
具体的,终端设备可以为处于连接态;网络设备可以为接入网设备,比如,可以为基站(eNB、gNB等等)。
所述RRC重配置消息可以包括:无线链路监测配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig)和无线链路失败(RLF)-定时器和常量(TimersAndConstants)配置等。
具体来说,所述RRC重配置消息可以包括以下至少之一:
1、failureDetectionResources(失败检测资源)配置,其中可以包括用于无线链路监测的SSB/CSI-RS资源配置;
2、RLF(无线链路失败,Radio Link Failure)定时器的相关参数,比如,N310,N311,T310等参数;
3、所述RRC重配置消息还可以包括:第五数量门限值(M3)以及第六数量门限值(N3),还包括第三定时器的定时时长(L1),以及第四定时器的定时时长(L2)参数等。
其中,M3和N3参数,参数L1和L2,所述M3和N3为用于UE执行RLM模式切换的counter门限,所述L1和L2为用于counter计数的定时器时长。M3为L1运行时间内RRC层从物理层接收到连续的“in-sync”同步指示的最大次数,N3为L2运行时间内RRC层从物理层接收到连续的“out-of-sync”失步指示的最大次数。L1和L2的单位为ms或者是indication period(指示期)。
本实施例中关于计数值的计数处理可以通过计数器或称为counter来实现,由于本实施例中涉及到同步指示的计数值以及失步指示的计数值,相应的,可以通过设置两个counter(计数器)来实现,可以分别将同步指示的计数器表示为M3-counter,失步指示的计数器表示为N3-counter。
步骤72、基于网络配置,终端设备缺省处于正常RLM模式。
步骤73、所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式的情况下,若满足第四RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式。
所述第四RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备的RRC层连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第五数量门限值,并且相邻的同步指示的时间间隔不大于第三时长。
也就是终端设备在正常RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果RRC层收到连续M3个“in-sync”同步指示,且每两个相邻“in-sync”同步指示的时间间隔不超过L1,则UE进入放松RLM模式,并指示给物理层启用放松RLM的requirement。
进一步地,所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用正常RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。该正常RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
本步骤涉及到如何对同步指示的计数值进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对同步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第九条件,则所述终端设备将同步指示的计数值加一;
所述第九条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备处于正常RLM模式、并且所述第三定时器处于运行状态的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示;
所述终端设备处于正常RLM模式、所述第三定时器未运行、以及同步指示的计数值为0的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示。
也就是,终端设备如果处于正常RLM模式,第三定时器L1正在运行,那么终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”(同步)指示,则将M3_counter(同步指示的计数值)自加1。
或者,终端设备如果处于正常RLM模式,M3_counter(同步指示的计数值)为0、且第三定时器(L1)没有运行,此时终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“in-sync”同步指示,将M3_counter(同步指示的计数值)自加1(此时,可以还包括启动L1的处理)。
对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置的处理可以包括:
若满足第十条件,则所述终端设备对同步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置;
其中,所述第十条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备进入正常RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到失步指示;
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程;
所述第三定时器(L1)超时。
其中,终端设备进入正常RLM模式,可以存在两种可能,一种是终端设备由放松RLM模式进入正常RLM模式,另一种是终端设备默认直接进入正常RLM模式。
所述终端设备收到失步指示,可以为RRC层收到物理层的失步(out-of-sync)指示。
在正常RLM模式下,关于初始化、重置或停止第三定时器的处理方式可以包括:
所述终端设备满足以下条件时启动或重启第三定时器:终端设备处于正常RLM模式的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示。
所述终端设备满足以下条件至少之一时停止第三定时器:
终端设备处于正常RLM模式、并且第三定时器在运行状态的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示;
或者,所述终端设备由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式。
一种示例中,前述第三定时器以及同步指示的计数值的处理,可以包括:如果终端设备进入正常RLM模式,将同步指示的计数值也初始化;
在接收到同步指示的时候,同步指示的计数值加1,并且将第三定时器初始化;
然后,可以包括以下几种处理:
一种处理中、如果在第三定时器未超时(也就是运行状态中)再次接收到同步指示,那么就连续的将同步指示的计数值加1,并且将第三定时器重置;如果连续收到同步指示的计数值达到第三数量门限值、并且每次第三定时器均未超时,也就是满足第四RLM转换条件,此时可以确定转换为放松RLM模式,同时停止第三定时器。
再一种处理中、如果在第三定时器未超时(运行状态中)的情况下,接收到同步指示,将同步指示的计数值加1;如果连续收到同步指示的计数值未达到第三数量门限值、或者任意一次第三定时器超时,则保持正常RLM模式,又或者,此时接收到失步指示,则将同步指示的计数值进行重置为0,终端设备保持在正常RLM模式。
执行完成步骤73之后,终端设备可以由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;进一步地,本示例还可以包括:
步骤74:所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式的情况下,若满足第六RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
所述第六RLM转换条件包括:所述终端设备的RRC层连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第六数量门限值,并且相邻的失步指示的时间间隔不大于第四时长。
也就是终端设备在放松RLM模式进行链路检测时,如果RRC层收到连续N3个“Out-of-sync”指示,且每两个相邻“Out-of-sync”失步指示的时间间隔不超过L1,则终端设备进入正常RLM模式,并指示给物理层启用正常RLM的requirement。
所述终端设备进入放松RLM模式时,所述终端设备的RRC层指示物理层采用放松RLM模式对应的测量要求进行链路检测。
该放松RLM模式对应的测量要求可以为根据协议预设的,又或者,可以为网络设备为终端设备预配置的,如果是预配置的可以通过RRC信令、或DCI等信息为终端设备进行配置。
关于放松RLM模式以及正常RLM模式,两者对应的测量要求的区别在于,正常RLM模式可以采用第一测量间隔,放松RLM模式可以采用第二测量间隔,并且第一测量间隔小于第二测量间隔。
本步骤涉及到如何对失步指示的计数值进行计数的处理,其中可以包括有对失步指示的计数值进行初始化或重置,以及对失步指示的计数值加一的处理。具体说明如下:
若满足第十一条件,则所述终端设备将失步指示的计数值加一;
所述第十一条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式、并且所述第四定时器在运行状态的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。也就是终端设备处于放松RLM模式,第四定时器L2正在运行的情况下,若终端设备的RRC层收到1个来自物理层的“out-of-sync”失步指示,将失步指示的计数值(N3_counter)自加1。
所述终端设备处于放松RLM模式、所述第四定时器未运行、以及同步指示的计数值为0的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。也就是,终端设备处于正常RLM模式,失步指示的计数值(N3_counter)为0且第四定时器L2没有运行的情况下,如果终端设备的RRC层收 到1个来自物理层的“out-of-sync”失步指示,将失步指示的计数值(N3_counter)自加1。
本示例中,对失步指示的计数值进行重置的方式,可以包括:
若满足第十二条件,则所述终端设备根据对失步指示的计数值进行重置;
所述第十二条件包括以下至少之一:
所述终端设备由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
所述终端设备收到同步指示;
所述终端设备收到包含小区组的同步重配置的RRC重配置信息;
所述终端设备初始化RRC连接重配置过程;
所述第四定时器超时。
同样的,本示例增加针对第四定时器的初始化、重置或停止的处理,具体的:
所述终端设备满足以下条件时启动或重启第四定时器:终端设备处于放松RLM模式的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的失步指示。
所述终端设备满足以下条件至少之一时停止第四定时器:
终端设备处于放松RLM模式、并且第四定时器在运行期间的情况下,所述终端设备的RRC层收到物理层的同步指示;
或者,所述终端设备由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
一种示例中,前述第四定时器以及失步指示的计数值的处理,可以包括:如果终端设备进入放松RLM模式,将失步指示的计数值也重置为0;
在接收到失步指示的时候,将失步指示的计数值加1,并且将第四定时器初始化;
然后,如果在第四定时器运行期间接收到失步指示,那么就连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,并且重置第四定时器;如果连续收到失步指示的计数值达到第六数量门限值、并且第四定时器均未超时,也就是满足第六RLM转换条件,此时可以确定转换为正常RLM模式,同时停止第二定时器。否则,终端设备保持在正常RLM模式下。
至此完成本示例的全部流程,结合图8对本示例进行说明,从图8中可以看出正常RLM模式的测量间隔比放松RLM模式的测量间隔小;图中的实线箭头表示同步指示,虚线箭头表示失步指示;第五数量门限值可以为M3假设等于8,第六数量门限值可以为N3假设等于4,并配置第三定时器(L1)以及第四定时器(L2)。具体的:
进入正常RLM模式后,RRC层收到第一个同步指示的时候,将同步指示的计数值加1,同时启动第三定时器(L1),接收到失步指示,停止第三定时器,重置同步指示的计数值为0;再往后,连续接收到8个同步指示,同步指示的计数值计数值达到8,也就是网络设备配置的第五数量门限值(称为M3)、并且相邻两个同步指示之间的时间间隔均未超过第三定时器(L1)的时长,因此确定进入放松RLM模式,同时将T1停止;
图中终端设备进入放松RLM模式后,可以先将失步指示的计数值初始化为0;在接收到第一个失步指示,可以对失步指示的计数值加1,并且启动第四定时器(L2);然后连续接收到两个同步指示,将失步指示的计数值进行重置为0,并且停止第四定时器(L2);然后,连续接收到4个失步指示,确定连续的将失步指示的计数值加1,执行4次计数值加1的处理后,失步指示的计数值达到第四数量门限值(N3),并且相邻两个失步指示之间的时间间隔均未超过第四定时器(L2)的时长,则确定从放松RLM模式转换至正常RLM模式,并且将第四定时器(L2)停止。
本示例的RLM模式转换的条件更为严格,连续收到同步指示、并且相邻同步指示之间的时间间隔不超过第三时长的时候,才认为未来信道会持续维持好的状态,因而终端可以节电进行放松测量,而不会对无线链路失败影响太大。连续收到失步指示、并且相邻失步指示之间的时间间隔不超过第四时长的时候,才认为未来信道会持续维持差的状态,排除掉个别时间间隔内信道变好的随机因素,才返回正常测量状态,避免太迟检测无线链路失败。
最后需要指出的是,上述示例2、3可以分别使用,也可以结合使用,比如,一种示例中,所述终端设备根据RLM转换条件,确定不同的RLM模式之间的转换,包括:
所述终端设备采用正常RLM模式的情况下,若满足第三RLM转换条件和第四RLM转换条件,则确定由正常RLM模式切换至放松RLM模式;
或者,
所述终端设备采用放松RLM模式的情况下,若满足第五RLM转换条件第六RLM转换条件,则确定由放松RLM模式切换至正常RLM模式。
也就是,转换至放松RLM模式,需要满足上述示例2以及示例3中描述的第三RLM转换条件 以及第四RLM转换条件,可以理解为所述终端设备需要:在第一时长内,所述终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第三数量门限值;也就是在一段时间内RRC层只收到“in-sync”同步指示,且“in-sync”同步指示数量大于第三数量门限值(M2);并且,连续收到的同步指示的计数值超过第五数量门限值,并且相邻的同步指示的时间间隔不大于第三时长。其中,时间间隔的衡量单位可以是指示期(indication Period),也就是说,RRC层收到连续M3(第五数量门限值)个“in-sync”指示,且相邻“in-sync”同步指示相差不超过L1个indication period。
这种情况下,第三数量门限值以及第五数量门限值可以相同。
具体的第三RLM转换条件以及第四RLM转换条件的内容与前述示例相同,这里不再赘述。
转换至正常RLM模式,需要满足上述示例2以及示例3中的第五RLM转换条件以及第六RLM转换条件,可以理解为:
终端设备需要在第二时长内,所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第四数量门限值。也就是,在一段时间内RRC层只收到“out-of-sync”失步指示,且“out-of-sync”失步指示数量大于一个第四数量门限值(N2),并且,同时需要所述终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值超过第六数量门限值,并且相邻的失步指示的时间间隔不大于第四时长。其中,时间间隔的衡量单位可以是指示期(indication Period),也就是说,RRC层收到连续N3(第六数量门限值)个“out-of-sync”失步指示,且相邻“out-of-sync”失步指示相差不超过L2个indication period。
这种情况下,第四数量门限以及第六数量门限可以相同。
进一步地,第五以及第六RLM转换条件的说明与前述示例相同,不再赘述。
将上述示例2、3结合的处理中,RLM模式转换的条件更为严格,在一定的时长内连续收到同步指示、并且相邻同步指示之间的时间间隔不超过一定的时长间隔的时候,才认为未来信道会持续维持好的状态,因而终端可以节电进行放松测量,而不会对无线链路失败影响太大。连续收到失步指示、并且相邻失步指示之间的时间间隔不超过第四时长的时候,才认为未来信道会持续维持差的状态,排除掉个别时间间隔内信道变好的随机因素,才返回正常测量状态,避免太迟检测无线链路失败。
可见,通过采用上述方案,就能够根据RLM转换条件来确定在正常RLM模式以及放松RLM模式之间进行转换,具体的RLM转换条件与同步指示或失步指示的计数值相关。如此,就在引入放松RLM模式之后,对如何进入放松RLM模式进行限定。
本发明实施例提供一种终端设备,如图9所示,包括:

需要指出的是,第一数量门限值以及第二数量门限值,可以作为无线链路监测配置(RadioLinkMonitoringConfig)中的参数,也可以为无线链路失败(RLF)-定时器和常量(TimersAndConstants)配置中的参数;当然,还可以为除上述两种配置之外单独配置的参数,本示例中不对其进行限定。

所述第一时长为第一定时器的定时时长,第二时长为第二定时器的定时时长。也就是说,通过维护第一定时器以及第二定时器,来对终端设备连续收到的同步指示的计数值以及时长、以及对终端设备连续收到的失步指示的计数值以及时长进行判断,进而确定是否进行RLM模式的转换。
以网络设备通过RRC信息为终端设备进行所述第一时长、所述第二时长、所述第三数量门限值、所述第四数量门限值的配置的场景,对本示例进行说明:
通信单元接收网络设备的RRC重配置消息;
具体的,终端设备可以为处于连接态;网络设备可以为接入网设备,比如,可以为基站(eNB、gNB等等)。
