切换指示方法、终端及MN
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请主张在2020年4月20日在中国提交的中国专利申请号No.202010313716.2的优先权,其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种切换指示方法、终端及MN。
背景技术
通信系统中的多连接是指至少两个节点为同一个终端提供服务,即终端可以同时连接到多个节点,由多个节点同时为终端提供数据收发服务。多连接的服务节点中有一个为主节点(Master Node,MN),其他为辅节点(Secondary Node,SN),且在多连接系统中,包括主小区组(Master Cell Group,MCG)和辅小区组(Secondary Cell Group,SCG)。
在多连接场景下,当MCG下行信道条件不好发生了MCG链路失败(MCG link failure),即终端在MN节点发生链路失败时,终端可发起快速恢复连接(fast MCG failure recovery)。其中,fast MCG failure recovery过程是指,当发生MCG link failure,终端在SN上报主节点失败信息(MN failure information),上报信息可达到MN,且上报信息中通常是包括MCG相关测量结果。根据终端上报的信息,MN可选择其他MCG小区并重配终端在新的MCG小区恢复MCG连接,即将终端切换(Hand over,HO)到新的MCG小区。但是,上报的MN failure information中可能因MCG信号质量等问题而不一定能拥有有效的MCG测量结果,所以有可能导致fast MCG failure recovery过程失败。
可见,现有切换指示方法的切换效果较差。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供一种切换指示方法、终端及MN,以解决现有切换指 示方法的切换效果较差的问题。
为解决上述技术问题,本发明是这样实现的:
第一方面,本发明实施例提供了一种切换指示方法,应用于终端,所述终端与至少两个节点建立有通信连接,所述至少两个节点包括主节点MN和辅节点SN,所述方法包括:

基于所述MN失败信息,将所述终端切换至所述至少一个小区中的目标小区。
第三方面,本发明实施例提供一种终端,所述终端与至少两个节点建立有通信连接,所述至少两个节点包括主节点MN和辅节点SN,所述终端包括:
发送模块,用于在所述终端在所述MN发生连接失败的情况下,通过所述SN向所述MN发送MN失败信息;
其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区。
第四方面,本发明实施例提供一种主节点MN,所述MN与终端建立有通信连接,所述终端还与辅节点SN建立有通信连接,所述MN包括:
接收模块,用于接收所述终端通过所述SN发送的MN失败信息,其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一MCG外的小区;
切换模块,用于基于所述MN失败信息,将所述终端切换至所述至少一个小区中的目标小区。
第五方面,本发明实施例提供一种终端,包括处理器、存储器及存储在所述存储器上并可在所述处理器上运行的计算机程序,所述计算机程序被所述处理器执行时实现上述第一方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤。
第六方面,本发明实施例提供一种主节点MN,包括处理器、存储器及存储在所述存储器上并可在所述处理器上运行的计算机程序,所述计算机程序被所述处理器执行时实现上述第二方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤。
第七方面,本发明实施例提供一种计算机可读存储介质,所述计算机可读存储介质上存储有计算机程序,所述计算机程序被处理器执行时实现上述第一方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤;或者,所述计算机程序被处理器执行时实现上述第二方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤。
第八方面,本发明实施例提供一种计算机软件产品,所述计算机软件产品被存储在非易失的存储介质中,所述软件产品被配置成被至少一个处理器执行以实现上述第一方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤;或者,上述第二方面所述的切换指示方法中的步骤。
第九方面,本发明实施例提供一种终端,所述终端被配置成用于执行上述第一方面所述的切换指示方法。
第十方面,本发明实施例提供一种主节点MN,所述MN被配置成用于执行上述第二方面所述的切换指示方法。本发明实施例中,在终端在MN发生连接失败的情况下,通过SN向所述MN发送MN失败信息;其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区。这样,由于所述终端上报的MN失败信息中包括了除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区的测量信息,从而可以避免因仅包括MCG小区的测量信息而导致切换连接失败的问题,进而提高切换效果。

双连接UE的服务节点中有一个为主节点(MN,Master Node),一个为辅节点(SN,Secondary Node),其中,每个节点都可以支持载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,CA)。网络会为双连接UE配置两个特殊小区(Special Cell),即配置MN的一个服务小区作为UE的主小区(Primary Cell,PCell),配置SN的一个服务小区作为UE的主辅小区(Primary Secondary Cell,PScell)。MN和SN为UE服务的其他小区为该UE的辅小区(Secondary Cell,Scell)。
多连接指超过两个节点为同一个UE提供服务。本发明同样适用于多连接,对多连接基站的类型不做限定。
类似双连接,多连接UE的服务节点中有一个为MN,其他为辅节点。
请参见图1,图1是本发明实施例可应用的一种网络系统的结构图,如图1所示,包括终端11、MN12和SN 13,其中,终端11可以是用户终端(User Equipment,UE)或者其他终端侧设备,例如:手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)、可穿 戴式设备(Wearable Device)或者机器人等终端侧设备,需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中并不限定终端11的具体类型。上述MN12和SN13均可以是基站,例如:宏站、LTE eNB、第五代(5 th Generation,5G)NR NB、gNB等;上述MN12和SN13也可以是小站,如低功率节点(Low Power Node,LPN)微微(pico)、毫微微(femto)等小站,还或者是接入点(Access Point,AP);基站也可以是中央单元(Central Unit,CU)与其管理和控制的多个传输接收点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)共同组成的网络节点。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中并不限定MN12和SN13的具体类型。上述网络系统可以是5G通信系统或长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)通信系统,具体可不作限定。
请参见图2,图2是本发明实施例提供的一种切换指示方法的流程图,应用于终端,所述终端与至少两个节点建立有通信连接,所述至少两个节点包括主节点MN和辅节点SN,如图2所示,所述方法包括以下步骤:
步骤201、在所述终端在所述MN发生连接失败的情况下,通过所述SN向所述MN发送MN失败信息;
其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区。
本发明实施例中,所述终端与至少两个节点建立有通信连接,所述至少两个节点包括主节点MN和辅节点SN,也即所述终端处于多RAT双连接(Multi-RAT Dual Connectivity,MR-DC)模式,其中,所述MR-DC可以包括演进的通用移动通信系统地面无线接入(Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access,E-UTRA)为MCG,NR为SCG的双连接(E-UTRA NR dual connectivity with MCG using E-UTRA and SCG using NR,EN-DC)、下一代无线接入网络(Next Generation Radio Access Network,NG-RAN)E-UTRA-NR双连接(NG-RAN E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity,NGEN-DC)、NR-NR双连接(NR-NR Dual Connectivity,NR-DC)和NR-E-UTRA双连接(NR-E-UTRA Dual Connectivity,EN-DC)等多种不同连接模式,本发明实施例对于MR-DC模式可不作具体限定。
上述终端在所述MN发生连接失败可以是所述终端与所述MN中的小区 连接失败,即所述终端在MN节点发生了MN failure。
其中,所述连接失败可包括如下任一种:
信令无线承载(Signalling Radio Bearer,SRB)完整性保护失败(Integrity Check Failure);
无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)重配失败(Reconfiguration Failure);
MN切换失败(Handover Failure,HOF);
无线链路失败(Radio Link Failure,RLF);
经过条件切换的切换失败。
即所述终端在MN上发生了SRB Integrity Check Failure、RRC Reconfiguration Failure、MN HOF、RLF和经过条件切换的切换失败中的任一种,都可理解为所述终端在所述MN发生了连接失败。
在这种情况下,所述终端需向其服务节点上报MN失败信息,即上报MN failure information,以发起快速恢复连接请求(fast MCG failure recovery),由于此时所述终端与所述MN发生了连接失败,因此,为保证所述MN失败信息能够传达至所述MN,所述终端可以向SN上报所述MN失败信息,所述SN再将所述MN失败信息转发至所述MN,其中,所述MN与所述SN之间可以通过信令接口传输数据。
而为了保证所述MN能够基于所述MN失败信息,对所述终端进行快速连接切换,以恢复所述终端与MN节点的连接,可以在所述MN失败信息中携带至少一个小区的测量信息,且所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区,以避免因仅携带MCG小区的测量信息,且携带的MCG小区测量信息无效时,而导致所述终端恢复连接失败。需说明的是,所述终端可以根据频点来测量各不同小区的信息,再将所测量得到的小区信息携带在所述MN失败信息中进行上报。
其中,所述测量信息可以包括小区的标识(Identifier,ID)、信号质量、网络类型、频点等相关信息。
这样,所述MN可接收到所述SN转发的所述终端上报的所述MN失败信息,并可基于所述MN失败信息,对所述终端进行连接切换,具体地,可 以依据所述MN失败信息中携带的至少一个小区的测量信息,确定待切换的目标小区,并将所述终端切换至所述目标小区,即建立所述终端与所述目标小区的连接。其中,所述目标小区可以是所述至少一个小区中的一个,且可以是所述至少一个小区中测量信息符合预设要求的小区,如信号质量较好或是最好的小区,以保证所述终端在切换连接后,能够具备较为稳定的网络连接和较好的通信质量。
可选的,所述至少一个小区包括如下至少一项:
所述SN对应的第一辅小区组SCG中的小区;
所述第一MCG的无线接入技术RAT中,除所述第一MCG之外的小区;
所述第一SCG的RAT中,除所述第一SCG之外的小区;
除所述第一MCG或所述第一SCG的RAT之外的其他RAT的小区。
其中,上述SN对应的第一SCG中的小区,即为所述SN覆盖的辅小区组中的小区,具体可以包括所述第一SCG中的一个或多个小区。
上述第一MCG的RAT中,除所述第一MCG之外的小区,可以是指在所述第一MCG所接入的网络类型中,非MCG中的小区,即网络类型与所述第一MCG相同,但非MCG的小区,例如,所述第一MCG所接入的网络类型为LTE,则所述除MCG之外的小区,可以是指网络接入类型为LTE且不属于MCG中的小区。
上述第一SCG的RAT中,除所述第一SCG之外的小区,可以是指在所述第一SCG所接入的网络类型中,非SCG中的小区,即网络类型与所述第一SCG相同,但非SCG的小区,例如,所述第一SCG所接入的网络类型为NR,则所述除SCG之外的小区,可以是指网络接入类型为NR且不属于SCG中的小区。
上述除所述第一MCG或所述第一SCG的RAT之外的其他RAT的小区,可以是除当前MCG接入的网络类型外或除当前SCG接入的网络类型外的其他网络接入类型的小区,例如,当前MCG接入的网络类型为LTE,则所述其他RAT的小区可以是网络接入类型为NR等其他小区,也即可以是网络接入类型为NR的节点所覆盖的小区;又例如,当前SCG接入的网络类型为NR,则所述其他RAT的小区可以是网络接入类型为LTE等其他小区,也即可以 是网络接入类型为LTE的节点所覆盖的小区。
也就是说,所述至少一个小区的测量信息可包括当前SCG中的小区测量信息、非MCG的小区测量信息、非SCG的小区测量信息和除当前MCG RAT或SCG RAT之外的其他RAT的小区测量信息中一种或多种。
可选的,所述至少一个小区还包括所述第一MCG中的小区。
即本发明实施例中,所述至少一个小区不仅可以包括上述小区中的一个或多个,也还可以包括所述第一MCG中的小区,即当前MCG小区,这样,所述MN可依据所述MN失败信息中携带的多个小区测量信息,为所述终端选择信号质量尽可能好的小区进行切换。
本实施例中的切换指示方法,在终端在MN发生连接失败的情况下,通过SN向所述MN发送MN失败信息;其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区。这样,由于所述终端上报的MN失败信息中包括了除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区的测量信息,从而可以避免因仅包括MCG小区的测量信息而导致切换连接失败的问题,进而提高切换效果。
请参见图3,图3是本发明实施例提供的另一种切换指示方法的流程图,应用于主节点MN,所述MN与终端建立有通信连接,所述终端还与辅节点SN建立有通信连接,如图3所示,所述方法包括以下步骤:
步骤301、接收所述终端通过所述SN发送的MN失败信息,其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一MCG外的小区。
步骤302、基于所述MN失败信息,将所述终端切换至所述至少一个小区中的目标小区。
需要说明的是,本实施例作为与图2所示的实施例中对应的MN侧的实施方式,其具体的实施方式可以参见图2所示的实施例中的相关说明,以为避免重复说明,本实施例不再赘述。本实施例中,同样可以提高切换效果。
其中,所述连接失败可包括如下任一种:
信令无线承载SRB完整性保护失败;
无线资源控制RRC重配失败;
MN切换失败;
无线链路失败RLF;
经过条件切换的切换失败。
可选的,所述至少一个小区包括如下至少一项:
所述SN对应的第一SCG中的小区;
所述第一MCG的RAT中,除所述第一MCG之外的小区;
所述第一SCG的RAT中,除所述第一SCG之外的小区;
除所述第一MCG或所述第一SCG的RAT之外的其他RAT的小区。
可选的,所述至少一个小区还包括所述第一MCG中的小区。
上述可选的实施方式可以参见图2所示的实施例中相关实施方式的说明,为避免重复说明,本实施例不再赘述。
可选的,所述步骤302包括:
基于所述MN失败信息中的至少一个小区的测量信息,确定待切换的所述目标小区;
向所述目标小区对应的目标节点发送切换请求,所述切换请求用于请求所述目标节点将所述终端切换至所述目标小区。
即所述MN在接收到所述终端上报的MN失败信息,也即相当于接收到所述终端发起的快速恢复连接请求(fast MCG failure recovery)后,可以响应所述终端的请求,对所述终端切换连接小区,具体地,可以基于所述MN失败信息携带的所述至少一个小区的测量信息,从中确定一个目标小区作为待切换的小区,其中,所述目标小区可以是测量信息符合预设要求的小区,如信号质量较好或是最好的小区,以保证所述终端在切换连接后,能够具备较为稳定的网络连接和较好的通信质量。
确定待切换的所述目标小区后,可以向所述目标小区对应的目标节点发送切换请求即HO请求,以使所述目标节点在接收到所述切换请求后,将所述终端切换至所述目标小区,其中,所述目标节点即为覆盖小区包括所述目标小区的节点。且需说明的是,当所述目标小区为所述MN覆盖的小区时,所述目标节点即为所述MN,当所述目标小区为所述SN覆盖的小区时,所述目标节点即为所述SN,当所述目标小区为除所述MN和所述SN之外的节点 覆盖的小区时,所述目标节点即为除所述MN和所述SN之外的新节点。
还需说明的是,当所述目标节点与所述MN相同时,所述向所述目标小区对应的目标节点发送切换请求,可以是向所述目标小区对应的接口发送切换请求,其中,所述MN覆盖的不同小区之间具有能够相互通信的接口。当然,由于所述目标节点与所述MN属于同一节点,也可不执行向所述目标节点发送切换请求的步骤,而是直接将所述终端切换至所述目标小区即可。
其中,所述切换请求中可携带有切换原因,所述切换原因指示所述终端在所述MN上发生连接失败。
为了使所述目标节点快速响应所述切换请求,以快速恢复所述终端与MCG的连接,避免因切换延迟而影响所述终端当前进行的业务,可在所述切换请求中携带切换原因,以指示所述目标节点,发起切换请求的原因在于所述终端在所述MN上发生了连接失败,也即所述切换请求是从所述终端发起的fast MCG failure recovery的基础上发起的。
这样,所述目标节点在接收到所述切换请求后,可以将该请求作为最高优先级别处理,立即予以响应,建立所述终端与所述目标小区的连接,而不存在延迟和响应竞争。
可选的,所述将所述终端切换至所述至少一个小区中的目标小区,包括如下任一项:
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区;
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至第二MCG中的小区,其中,所述第二MCG为新添加的主小区组;
在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,以将所述终端配置至所述目标小区。
具体地,所述MN将所述终端切换至目标小区的行为可包括如下多种不同切换方式:
第一种方式中,可以是将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区,即仍保留所述MN为所述终端的主节点,但将所述终端在发生MN连接失败前所连接的所述MN的小区即所述第一小区,切换至所述MN的另一小区即所述第二小区,以恢复所述终端与所述MN的连接。
进一步的,在所述第一种方式中,所述将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区,可包括如下任一项:
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区,其中,所述终端保留与所述SN的连接;
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区,并将所述终端从所述SN的第三小区切换至所述SN的第四小区。
也就是说,在将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述MN的第二小区时,对于所述终端与所述SN的连接,还可以有以下两种不同的切换行为:
其一为保留所述终端与所述SN的连接,即不对所述终端在所述SN中连接的小区进行切换,也不释放所述终端与所述SN的连接;
其二为将所述终端从所述SN的第三小区切换至所述SN的第四小区,即仍保留所述SN为所述终端的辅节点,但将所述终端在发生MN连接失败前所连接的所述SN的小区即所述第三小区,切换至所述SN中的另一小区即所述第四小区,其中,所述第四小区可以是信号质量优于所述第三小区的小区,以实现将所述终端切换至信号质量更佳的SN小区。
第二种方式中,可以是将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至第二MCG中的小区,其中,所述第二MCG为新添加的主小区组,即可以添加新的节点以替换当前MN作为新的主节点,从而将该新添加的主节点所覆盖的小区作为新的主小区组,即所述第二MCG,并将所述终端在发生MN连接失败前所连接的所述MN中的第一小区切换至新添加的主小区组中的小区,以建立所述终端与所述新添加的主节点的连接。
进一步的,在所述第二种方式中,所述将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至第二MCG中的小区,可包括如下任一项:
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述第二MCG中的小区,其中,所述终端保留与所述SN的连接;
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述第二MCG中的小区,且将所述终端从所述SN的第三小区切换至第二SCG中的小区,其中,所述第二SCG为新添加的辅小区组;
将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至所述第二MCG中的小区,其中,所述终端释放与所述SN的连接。
也就是说,在将所述终端从所述MN的第一小区切换至第二MCG中的小区时,对于所述终端与所述SN的连接,还可以有以下三种不同的切换行为:
其一为保留所述终端与所述SN的连接,即不对所述终端在所述SN中连接的小区进行切换,也不释放所述终端与所述SN的连接;
其二为将所述终端从所述SN的第三小区切换至第二SCG中的小区,即可以添加新的节点以替换当前SN作为新的辅节点,从而将该新添加的辅节点所覆盖的小区作为新的辅小区组,即所述第二SCG,并将所述终端在发生MN连接失败前所连接的所述SN中的第三小区切换至新添加的辅小区组中的小区,以建立所述终端与所述新添加的辅节点的连接;
其三为释放所述终端与所述SN的连接,即释放所述终端与所述SN中的小区的连接,例如,可以在所述SN对应的SCG小区中不存在信号质量满足预设要求的小区时,释放所述终端与所述SN的连接,这种情况下,所述终端可由原来的双连接或多连接模式切换成单连接模式。当然,为了保障所述终端的业务质量,也可以在后续搜索到信号质量满足预设要求的新节点的情况下,将该新节点配置为所述终端的辅节点,以恢复所述终端至双连接或多连接模式。
第三种方式中,可以是在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,以将所述终端配置至所述目标小区,即可以在所述MN或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配置,也可以在所述MN和所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配置,向所述终端重新下发新的网络配置资源,以重新建立所述终端与所述MN和/或所述SN的连接,其中,所述终端与所述MN和/或所述SN重新建立连接后所连接的小区即为所述目标小区。
进一步的,在所述第三种方式中,所述在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,可包括如下任一项:
在所述MN上对所述终端进行资源重配,其中,所述终端保留与所述MN的连接,以及保留与所述SN的连接;
在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,并将所述MN配置为所述终端的辅节点,以及将所述SN配置为所述终端的主节点;
重配所述终端与所述SN的连接,其中,所述终端释放与所述MN的连接。
也就是说,所述在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,具体可以有以下三种不同的重配行为:
其一可以是在仅所述MN上对所述终端进行资源重配,即通过所述MN向所述终端重新下发新的网络配置资源,以重新建立所述终端与所述MN的连接,并且可保留所述终端与所述MN的连接,以及保留所述终端与所述SN的连接,也即继续保持所述MN为所述终端的主节点和所述SN为所述终端的辅节点的配置不变。
其二可以是在所述MN和/或所述SN上对所述终端进行资源重配,即通过所述MN和所述SN中的至少一个上向所述终端重新下发新的网络配置资源,以重新建立所述终端与所述MN和所述SN的连接关系,并且可调换所述MN与所述SN的关系,也即将原来的主节点所述MN配置为新的辅节点,而将原来的辅节点所述SN配置为新的主节点。例如,可在所述SN覆盖的小区信号质量优于所述MN覆盖的小区信号质量的情况下,重配原MN为新的SN,以及重配原SN为新的MN。
其三可以是重配所述终端与所述SN的连接,并释放所述终端与所述MN的连接,即可重配所述终端仅与所述SN中的小区连接,而释放所述终端与所述MN中的小区的连接,也即释放双连接或多连接配置,将所述终端由原来的双连接或多连接模式切换成单连接模式。例如,可以在所述MN对应的MCG小区中不存在信号质量满足预设要求的小区时,释放所述终端与所述MN的连接。当然,为了保障所述终端的业务质量,也可以在后续搜索到信号质量满足预设要求的新节点的情况下,将该新节点配置为所述终端的主节点或辅节点,将恢复所述终端至双连接或多连接模式。
这样,在对所述终端进行连接切换时,可存在上述多种不同的切换或重配方式以供选择,且可根据需求选择期望的方式来对所述终端进行有效连接切换,进而可保证切换的灵活性,并提升切换效果。
本实施例中的切换指示方法,接收终端通过SN发送的MN失败信息,其中,所述MN失败信息包括至少一个小区的测量信息,所述至少一个小区包括除所述MN对应的第一MCG外的小区;基于所述MN失败信息,将所述终端切换至所述至少一个小区中的目标小区。这样,由于所述终端上报的MN失败信息中包括了除所述MN对应的第一主小区组MCG外的小区的测量信息,从而可以避免因仅包括MCG小区的测量信息而导致切换连接失败的问题,进而提高切换效果。
