Description

通信系统中数据处理方法和装置
本申请要求于2020年06月24日提交中国专利局、申请号为202010590672.8、申请名称为“通信系统中数据处理方法和装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及通信领域中数据处理的方法和装置。
背景技术
随着低时延高可靠业务逐渐铺开,例如,云游戏、云办公以及云虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)/增强现实(augmented reality,AR)AR、以及工业控制等。这些实时业务需要网络在较短时延要求下提供较高的可靠性保障,从而对网络传输要求极高。然而在无线场景中,由于环境和运动影响,无线信道天然的波动性导致无线通信难以满足低时延高可靠业务的需求。
在现代无线通信系统,如长期演进(long term evolution,LTE),新空口(new radio,NR)等,通常通过重传实现传输可靠性的保证。然而重传需要收发端之间的传输反馈来触发,传输反馈的RTT将导致时延进一步扩大,从而使得传输超时,无法满足低时延要求。
此外,由于通信业务的复杂性,包括语音、视频、数据以及网元信令等不同类型的业务数据会在同样的信道中进行传输,而不同类型的数据,对于时延、可靠性、数据速率的要求均有差异。
发明内容
有鉴于此,本申请实施例提供了数据处理方法,装置及系统,以期提高传输可靠性。

本申请实施例中,例如图1A中的各网元,例如网络设备102或终端103,也可以是一个设备内的一个功能模块。可以理解的是,上述功能既可以是硬件设备中的网络元件,例如手机,基站或网络设备中的通信芯片,也可以是在专用硬件上运行的软件功能,或者是平台(例如,云平台)上实例化的虚拟化功能。有时候也统称为通信装置。
终端与网络设备通过空口传输信令和数据。以NR通信系统为例,如图1B所示为空口用户面协议栈和控制面协议栈,其中用户面主要是用于传输数据,控制面主要是用于传输信令。空口用户面协议栈包括层2(Layer 2,L2)和物理层(physical,PHY),其中用户面L2包括业务数据适配协议(Service Data Adaptation Protocol,SDAP)子层,分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)子层,无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,RLC)子层,媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)子层。空口控制面协议栈包括非接入(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)层,无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC),L2以及物理层,控制面L2包括PDCP,RLC以及MAC子层。各协议层实体或协议子层实体根据配置上层或下层递交的信令或数据执行相应的处理。通常,每个协议层或每个协议子层实体是与一个无线承载对应的,无线承载可以是控制面的信令RB(SRB),也可以是用户面的数据RB(DRB),还可以是侧链RB(sidelink RB,SLRB)等。L2的各协议子层通常按照从上至下的顺序为SDAP,PDCP,RLC,MAC,或者RRC,PDCP,RLC,MAC,例如,SDAP子层是PDCP子层的上一层,RLC子层是PDCP子层的下一层,以此类推。其中每个子层将从上一子层接收到的输入数据单元作为本子层的业务数据单元(service data unit,SDU),经过本子层处理后得到本子层的协议数据单元(protocol data unit,PDU),输出给下一子层,其中L2协议子层PDU包括L2协议子层头(header)和L2协议子层SDU。例如,PDCP PDU包括PDCP SDU和PDCP Header,其中PDCP SDU包括SDAP PDU。
参考图1C,以通信装置在用户面上发送和接收数据为例对各协议子层的处理进行说明。通信装置在用户面上发送数据可以是终端103向网络设备101发送用户面的上行数据,也可 以是网络设备101向终端发送用户面的下行数据。为了和L2区分,有时也将L2上层协议层称为L3(Layer 3)或者应用层等。当通信装置有用户面的PDU会话(PDU session)有业务质量(quality of service,QoS)流(flow)到达,QoS流的IP包经过L2和物理层处理后发送,处理过程如下:
1)SDAP子层中SDAP实体对IP包进行QoS标记,将其映射到数据RB上,以图1C为例,IP包n和IP包n+1被映射到RBx,IP包m被映射到RBy。IP包作为SDAP SDU,添加QoS流标识(QoS flow id,QFI)等得到SDAP PDU。SDAP PDU被递交至PDCP子层处理。
2)PDCP子层与RB对应的PDCP实体根据PDCP配置对SDAP PDU进行处理,包括头压缩,加密,完整性保护,重排序等中的一项或多项,然后添加PDCP Header后得到PDCP PDU递交给RLC子层。
3)RLC子层与RB对应的RLC实体根据RLC配置对接收到的PDCP PDU进行处理。,例如,根据接收到的PDCP PDU生成RLC SN,根据物理层以及MAC层的数据包大小指示对PDCP PDU进行可能的分割或打包操作等,添加RLC Header后得到RLC PDU递交给MAC子层。
4)MAC子层与RB对应的MAC实体根据MAC配置对RLC PDU进行处理,例如,添加包括逻辑信道标识(logical channel identity,LCID)等的子头,与其他MAC SDU(RLC PDU),MAC控制信元(control element,CE)等复用得到MAC PDU。MAC子层将MAC PDU作为传输块(transport block,TB)递交给物理层。
5)TB在物理层经过TB CRC添加,码块分割和CRC添加,信道编码,速率匹配,调制,层映射,预编码等过程后同导频或其它数据构成物理层传输帧,之后经由OFDM处理并进行信号发送。
接收信号的通信装置接收到信号后,先经过物理层处理,然后由L2各协议子层由下至上处理:
1)物理层对接收到的信号进行解调,解速率匹配,解码,码块合并,CRC校验等操作后得到MAC PDU,交由L2的MAC子层处理。
2)MAC子层实体根据MAC配置对MAC PDU处理,例如,解复用等得到一个或多个MAC SDU(RLC PDU),交由RLC子层处理。
3)RLC子层实体使用RLC配置对RLC PDU进行处理,例如剥除RLC header,重组等操作,得到RLC SDU,交由PDCP子层处理。
4)PDCP子层实体根据PDCP配置对PDCP PDU进行处理,例如,剥除PDCP header,完整性校验,解密,解压缩等得到PDCP SDU。
5)SDAP子层对SDAP PDU进行剥除SDAP header等操作向上层输出QoS流的IP包。
终端与网络设备之间也可以建立多个连接传输数据。例如LTE和NR双连接,NR与WLAN(如WiFi)双连接,无线接入网和固网等多连接,NR中高低频不同频段多连接,以及在中继网络中,如IAB场景,数据经由多个中继进行转发的场景。

以网络设备101为CU-DU分离架构为例,网络设备101的架构可以如图1D所示。图1D 中,网络设备101包括CU 1011、DU 1012以及DU 1013。其中,DU 1012和DU 1013可以与终端连接,例如,DU 1012与终端103连接,DU 1013与终端104连接。CU 1011可以与其他网络设备连接,例如,CU 1011与网络设备102连接。CU 1011还可以与核心网设备连接,例如,CU 1011还可以与核心网设备106连接。
可选的,每个DU和CU之间建立有通用分组无线服务(general packet radio service,GPRS)隧道协议(GPRS tunnelling protocol,GTP)隧道,该GTP隧道用于传输DU与CU之间的用户面数据。例如,CU 1011与DU 1012建立有GTP隧道1,GTP隧道1用于传输CU 1011与DU 1012之间的用户面数据。CU 1011与DU 1013建立有GTP隧道2,GTP隧道2用于传输CU 1011与DU 1013之间的用户面数据。
应理解,图1D所示的CU-DU架构仅用于举例,并非用于限制本申请的技术方案。本领域的技术人员应当明白,在具体实现过程中,上述CU-DU架构可根据具体需要来确定CU、DU的数量,同时,上述CU 1011、DU 1012以及DU 1013可以部署在同一个设备中,也可以部署在不同的设备中,不予限制。
若网络设备101和/或网络设备102为CU-DU分离架构,终端与网络设备之间传输用户面数据的过程可以如图1E所示。图1E中,终端包括PDCP实体、RLC实体、MAC实体和PHY实体。面向终端时,DU包括RLC实体、MAC实体和PHY实体;面向CU时,DU包括F1应用协议(F1 application protocol,F1AP)实体、流控制传输协议(stream control transmission protocol,SCTP)实体、网络互连协议(internet protocol,IP)实体、L2(layer 2)实体和L1(layer 1)实体。CU包括F1AP实体、SCTP实体、IP实体、L2实体和L1实体。以终端103经DU 1012向CU 1011发送用户面上行数据为例,终端103有用户面上行数据到达时,可以按照上述终端103向网络设备101发送用户面上行数据的方法,终端103将处理后的MAC PDU发送给DU 1012。DU 1012中的PHY实体接收到该处理后的MAC PDU后,可以按照上述网络设备101中的PHY实体、MAC实体和RLC实体处理数据的方法处理接收到的该处理后的MAC PDU,得到经过终端103中的PDCP实体处理的上行数据,并通过DU 1012和CU 1011之间的GTP隧道将经过终端103中的PDCP实体处理的上行数据发送给CU 1011。CU 1011接收到该经过终端103中的PDCP实体处理的上行数据后,可以按照上述网络设备101中的PDCP实体处理数据的方法处理接收到的数据,得到上述用户面上行数据。后续,CU 1011将该上行数据发送给核心网设备106。

现有通信系统中通常通过在物理层和RLC层的重传来提供数据传输的可靠性。对于低时延要求的业务,例如,URLLC业务,重传引起的传输时延无法满足低时延要求,从而物理层和RLC层无法通过重传提供提供对抗空口信道衰落和抖动的能力。对于待发送的数据可以通过在物理层信道编码前在L2进行一次或多次编码,从而在重传无法满足时延要求的传输场景下,可以提高数据的可靠性。其中编码可以是纠错编码或者纠删编码等类型的编码方案,例如,低密度奇偶校验LDPC码,极化Polar码,喷泉码,重复码,循环奇偶校验码CRC等。接收端通信装置接收到经过物理层信道编码和L2编码处理后的信号后,如果物理层译码失败,在无法进行重传时,不必丢弃错误的TB,还可以将物理层译码得到的软值或硬值继续递交至L2译码,L2译码成功后,可以将译码成功的数据递交至上层。从而也提高了译码的成功率。
如图3所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种数据处理的方法,可用于通信装置空口用户面协议栈或空口控制面协议栈,包括:
步骤310:对待发送数据进行发送端的L2处理后得到至少一个编码传输块。
其中,L2可以包括前述多个L2协议子层,例如,RRC,SDAP,PDCP,RLC,MAC等。
为了方便描述,本说明书中将L2中用于L2编码的协议子层简称为L2编码子层,其执行L2编码的实体称为L2编码实体。其中,L2编码子层可以为L2多个协议子层之中任一个。可选地,也可以在L2中新增加一个L2编码协议子层用于对从其上一层输入的待发送数据进行L2编码,例如在PDCP和RLC之间设置一个新的L2编码协议子层用于对从上一协议子层PDCP获取的一个或多个PDCP PDU进行L2编码,并且将L2编码处理后得到的L2编码序列输出至下一个协议子层RLC。可见,L2多个协议子层还可以包括新增加的L2编码协议子层,L2编码子层也可以是新增加的L2编码协议子层。
发送端的L2处理至少包括L2编码,还可以包括L2协议子层中相应实体执行的该协议子层的处理。例如L2编码子层为RLC,则RLC实体除了进行L2编码,还执行RLC子层相关处理。L2协议子层中各协议子层的处理可以参见前述对各协议子层的描述,此处不一一赘述。
可选地,待发送数据也可以在L2中进行多次L2编码,则L2中用于L2编码的协议子层可以是L2多个协议子层之中多个。
待发送数据可以是L2之上协议层(L3或者应用层等)的数据包,例如,用户面的PDU会话的QoS流的IP包。
可选地,待发送数据在L2进行L2编码的前后,还可以由L2一个或多个协议子层处理。例如,以L2编码子层为RLC子层为例,待发送数据进入L2处理,需要依次经过SDAP实体,PDCP实体进行相应协议子层处理,然后由RLC实体进行L2编码以及分割或者打包等RLC子层处理后,以RLC编码PDU的形式交由MAC实体处理,由MAC实体根据RLC编码SDU得到相应的一个或多个编码传输块。可见,待发送数据在L2进行编码的前后,分别由L2一个或多个协议子层处理。又例如,以L2编码子层为SDAP实体为例,待发送数据进入L2处理,在SDAP层经过RB映射后,进行L2编码后以SDAP PDU的形式递交给PDCP子层,由PDCP,RLC,MAC等实体依次进行相应协议子层处理,在MAC层得到一个或多个编码传输块。又例如,以L2编码子层为MAC实体为例,待发送数据进入L2处理,需要依次经过SDAP实体,PDCP实体,RLC实体进行相应协议子层处理,然后由MAC实体进行L2编码以及复用的MAC子层处理后,得到一个或多个编码传输块。
其中L2编码可以选择和物理层信道编码相同的编码方案也可以选择不同的编码方案,例如L2编码可以采用LDPC编码,Polar编码,喷泉码,重复码,CRC码等,也可以采用其他方式对待发送数据增加冗余比特。需要说明的是,此处均为举例,并不限于此。
其中,编码的码率可以根据待发送数据的保护程度确定,例如,可以根据数据的承载QoS要求进行设计,也可结合信道的波动范围测量进行设计。当信道波动较大或预期信道条件较差时,可以添加更多的冗余比特,采用较低的码率,当信道较为平稳时,可以添加较少的冗余比特,采用较高的码率。
在一种可选的实现方式中,可以根据待发送数据中各比特的重要性提供不等保护能力编码。不等保护能力的联合编码可通过对常见编码方案进行一定的修改,构造具有不等保护性质的编码方案。例如,可以通过将常用的LDPC编码的泰纳(Tanner)图进行连接度分布改造,对重要性较高的比特通过提供更高的度,实现更好的保护;也可对Polar码进行改造,通过子信道的容量大小实现不等保护特性,即令重要的比特经过容量最高的子信道;也可对喷泉码(如LT码)进行修改,如对重要性较高的比特,提供更高的编码选择概率,从而参与更多的发送比特运算的方式提供更好的保护能力等。本发明实施例对此不做限制。
待发送数据中的多个数据包可以来自一种或多种类型的数据流,不同类型的数据流的数据重要性可能存在差异,同一数据流的数据重要性也可能存在差异。通常重要性高的数据对可靠性的要求较高,需要降低译码的错误概率,保护能力较重要性低的数据要求高。不同的数据流可能在不同的无线承载RB上传输,对应到不同的RB。在一种可能的实现方式中,可以进行分组L2编码,按照数据流,或者RB,或可靠性要求,或者连接中的一种或多种对待发送数据分组,各组分别进行L2编码。例如,可以按照RB对数据进行分组,每组对应一个RB,则分组L2编码可以对不同RB的数据分别进行L2编码。又例如,可以按照比特的可靠性要求对数据进行分组,每组对应一种可靠性要求,则分组L2编码可以对具有不同的可靠性要求的比特分别进行L2编码。又例如,当通信装置之间存在两个或多个连接时,不同的数据流可能会被分配到不同的连接上传输,可以按照连接对待发送数据进行分组,每组对应一个连接,则分组L2编码可以对分配到不同连接的数据分别进行L2编码。可选地,不同的分组可以采用不同的编码方案进行编码。例如以可靠性要求为例,可靠性要求高的数据分组可以采用错误概率低的编码方案编码,而可靠性要求低的数据分组对编码方案的错误概率的要求相对要低。
分组L2编码后,可以由L2一个或多个协议子层对L2编码后的各组数据单独处理,相应地得到的编码传输块也是分别与分组对应;也可以由L2一个或多个协议子层对分组L2编码后的数据混合处理,相应地得到的编码传输块包括的数据可能来自多个分组,如来自多个数据流,或者多个RB,或多种可靠性要求,或者多种连接。
可选地,发送端的L2处理还可以包括L2交织,以获得分集增益。L2交织可以在L2编码之前,也可以在L2编码之后。例如,可以在对待发送数据或者经过L2协议子层处理过的待发送数据进行L2编码之前,进行L2交织。L2编码之前的L2交织可以在待发送数据的一个或多个数据包间或者数据包内按照系统定义的L2交织图样进行交织。需要说明的是,如果L2编码是分组进行的,L2编码之前的L2交织也可以按分组进行交织,也可以不分组,对所有待发送数据进行交织。又例如,可以在对待发送数据或者经过L2协议子层处理过的待发送数据进行L2编码之后,进行L2交织。L2编码之后的L2交织可以是在L2编码后的各编码块之间或者各编码块内按照系统定义的L2交织图样进行交织。需要说明的是,如果L2编码是分组进行的,L2编码之后的L2交织也可以按分组编码块进行交织,也可以混合多个组的编码块进行交织。上述均为举例,本发明并不限于此。
可选地,发送端的L2处理也可以用L2交织代替L2编码,从而包括L2交织,或者包括L2交织和其他L2协议子层的处理。此时L2交织的处理同前述L2编码前的L2交织处理。
步骤320:对步骤310得到的至少一个编码传输块经过物理层处理后得到用于发送的信号。
其中物理层的处理至少包括信道编码,不同系统的物理层处理可能存在差异,但是至少都会对从上一层实体,例如L2实体获取的传输块进行信道编码。
当然,物理层的处理还可以包括其他一项或多项:对传输块添加CRC,码块分割和码块CRC添加,块间交织,速率匹配,调制、MIMO预编码、OFDM等。不同连接的物理层处理也可能存在差异。
以NR系统为例,每个传输块在物理层首先添加CRC比特;如果添加CRC后的传输块长度大于码块长,则会进行码块分割得到多个码块,并且对每个码块添加CRC比特;每个码块在进行信道编码后得到编码块;速率匹配则会根据空口分配的资源确定编码块初传或重传的序列长度,从编码块中选取初传或重传的比特,并对这些选择的比特进行交织;交织后的序列经过调制,MIMO预编码、OFDM处理后得到用于发送的信号。
而LTE系统,则在速率匹配环节上和NR略有不同,会对编码块先进行子块交织,再做比特选择和打孔。
此处,不一一例举。可以理解的是经过L2编码的编码传输块在物理层还会进行信道编码,从而使得可靠性更高。
当支持多种连接时,如果两个通信装置之间建立多个连接传输数据,则编码传输块分别由不同连接的物理层处理后得到用于该连接发送的信号。
可选地,本实施例方法还可以包括:
步骤330:发送步骤320得到信号。
步骤320得到的信号将在空口进行发送,如果是多个连接的信号,则分别在不同连接的空口发送。
在上述实施例中,可选地,发送端和接收端的通信装置之间可以交互L2编码相关的参数,包括以下一项或多项:是否启用L2编码,编码方案,码率等。其中L2编码相关的参数可以是由发送端通信装置确定后通知给接收端,也可以是发送端和接收端通信装置协商确定。其中,发送端和接收端的通信装置之间可以通过多种方式交互L2编码相关的参数,例如:通过 UCI/DCI等经由控制信道进行带外信令或随路信令传输;也可预先通过高层下发指示,收发双端根据建链的指示进行相应的编码或译码,这里的高层是相对于物理层而言,可以是L2或L3等物理层之上的协议层,高层信令可以是控制面信令,例如RRC信令,也可以是用户面信令;也可将L2编码相关的参数随数据一起传输给接收端通信装置,接收端通信装置将先对L2编码相关的参数进行解析,然后根据相应参数进行L2译码处理。
本申请实施例的数据处理方法在物理层之上对待发送数据额外进行编码,作为对物理层的信道编码进行补充,可以提高在极低重传次数要求甚至无重传要求下的纠错能力。相应地,接收端的通信装置在接收到包含额外编码数据的信号后,如果物理层译码失败,还可以继续将译码的软值或硬值递交至L2译码,提供译码的成功率。
参见图4,为本发明实施例的步骤310中发送端L2处理进行示例性说明,可以包括以下内容:
3110:根据待发送数据获取N个待L2编码码块,N为大于或者等于1的整数。
待发送数据可以是L2上层或应用层递交至L2的一个或多个数据包。这些数据包可以来自同一业务流,也可以来自不同业务流。
待发送数据的一个或多个数据包可以作为一个或多个数据单元输入至L2编码子层,例如,可以每个数据单元包括一个或多个数据包。
待发送数据的一个或多个数据包也可以由L2编码子层之上的一个或多个L2协议子层依次进行相应协议子层处理,得到一个或多个数据单元输出至L2编码子层。
每个数据单元包括待发送数据中一个或多个比特。
L2编码子层根据待发送数据的一个或多个数据单元获取N个待L2编码码块(code block)。每个待L2编码码块可以包括待发送数据的多个比特。待L2编码码块的长度需要满足L2编码的编码方案对码长的要求。可选地,待L2编码码块还可以包括一个或多个填充比特使得待L2编码码块的长度满足编码方案对码长的要求。可选地,待L2编码码块还可以包括1个或多个检测校验比特,使得接收端在进行L2译码时可以根据检测校验比特来确定译码成功与否。其中,检测校验比特可以根据CRC校验、循环码校验、分组编码校验或其他编码校验方式产生。
一种可能的实现方式中,每个数据单元可以对应一个待L2编码码块,每个待L2编码码块包括一个数据单元。例如,待发送数据有N个数据单元a 1,a 2,…,a N,L2编码子层根据N个数据单元得到N个待L2编码码块c 1,c 2,…,c N,其中,c 1包括a 1,c 2包括a 2,…,以此类推,c N包括a N,进一步,根据需要每个码块还可以包括填充比特或者检测校验比特等。这种实现方式中,L2编码子层无需对上层或者上级协议子层的数据单元进行分割或组合等操作。例如,L2编码子层的上一协议层或协议子层已经将待发送数据按照L2编码子层编码的码块长或者MAC子层输出的传输块的大小进行了划分,L2编码子层对每个数据单元分别进行L2编码,需要说明的是,此处仅为举例,并不限于此。
又一种可能的实现方式中,L2编码子层也可以根据L2编码的最大码块长,或者下层协议实体处理的数据单元大小等中至少一项对待发送数据的一个或多个数据单元分割或者组合得到N个待L2编码码块。每个待L2编码码块可以包括一个或多个数据单元组成的比特段中部分或全部比特。
在步骤310提及的分组L2编码的方式下,L2编码子层也可以根据待发送数据的分组分别得到每个分组的一个或多个待L2编码码块。例如,待发送数据分别映射到RB1和RB2, 则L2编码子层可以对待发送数据中映射到RB1的数据包分割或组合得到N1个待L2编码码块,对待发送数据中映射到RB2的数据包分割或组合得到N2个待L2编码码块,N1和N2均为大于或者等于1的整数。
3120:对N个待L2编码码块进行L2编码或L2交织中至少一项处理得到M个L2编码PDU。
步骤3110产生的N个待L2编码码块经过L2编码或L2交织,或者L2编码和L2交织可以得到N个L2编码块(coded block),根据这个N个L2编码块可以得到M个L2编码PDU。
其中L2编码可以参见前述步骤310的描述,可以采用多种编码方案,也可以采用不等保护的编码方案,还可以采用分组L2编码方案。
需要说明的是,编码码块和编码块都是序列,可以包括多个比特。
L2交织也可以参见前述步骤310中的描述,进行块间,或者块内交织。
对N个待L2编码码块进L2编码和L2交织时,L2交织可以在L2编码之前,也可以在L2编码之后。若L2交织在L2编码之前,则先对N个待L2编码码块进行块间或块内交织,然后对交织后的N个待L2编码码块进行L2编码;若L2交织在L2编码之后,则先对N个待L2编码码块进行L2编码得到N个编码块,然后对这N个编码块进行块间或块内交织得到N个L2编码块。
可选地,L2编码子层还可以对N个L2编码块进行该子层的处理得到M个L2编码PDU,M为大于或等于1的整数。例如,根据物理层或下层处理的数据大小进行可能的分割或复用操作,添加header,序列号等等。
在又一种可能的实现方式中,也可以对N个待L2编码码块进行L2编码得到N个编码块,对N个编码块进行可能的分割或复用后得到M个数据单元,对M个数据单元分别进行交织可以得到M个L2编码PDU。可以理解的是,如果是分组L2编码,则在对N个编码块进行分割或复用时也是分组进行的,则得到的M个L2编码PDU也是分别对应到不同分组的。
3130:根据所述M个L2编码PDU得到T个编码传输块。
一种可能的实现方式中,每个编码传输块为一个L2编码PDU。例如,L2编码子层为MAC层,每个MAC PDU为一个传输块,也就是每个编码传输块为一个L2编码PDU。
又一种可能的实现方式中,对M个L2编码PDU经过一个或多个L2协议子层实体进行相应子层在发送端的处理后得到T个编码传输块。例如,L2编码子层为RLC层,M个RLC编码PDU在MAC子层由MAC实体进行复用等处理得到T个编码传输块。
可以理解的是,如果是分组L2编码方式,M个L2编码PDU可以按对应的分组分别由一个或多个L2协议子层进行处理,得到的T个编码传输块可以是分别对应到不同分组的,或者说每个编码传输块中的数据为同一分组的。
在又一种可能的实现方式中,当支持多种连接时,如果两个通信装置之间建立多个连接传输数据,可以由L2编码子层或L2编码子层下的其他L2协议子层分配各连接传输的数据,L2编码子层可以根据M个L2编码PDU中各L2编码PDU分配到的连接的物理层传输块大小进行分别按分配到的连接复用得到T个编码传输块。每个编码传输块包括的L2编码PDU为分配到同一连接上发送的。
其中,可以根据各连接可以承载的数据大小、数据类型或者数据重要性等中的一项或多项分配数据。例如,两个通信装置之间建立了一个高频段连接,一个低频段连接,可以根据每个连接传输的数据量大小将M1个L2编码PDU分配到高频段连接上发送,M2个L2编码PDU分配到低频段连接上发送。从而可以对M1个L2编码PDU进行复用等L2子层处理得 到T1个编码传输块用于在高频段连接上发送,对M2个L2编码PDU进行复用等L2子层处理得到T2个编码传输块用于在低频段连接上发送。需要说明的是,此处根据各连接传输的数据量大小分配数据时,可以不考虑M个L2编码PDU是否对应不同的分组,也就是不考虑前述分组L2编码时对数据进行的分组。
其中,也可以根据分组L2编码的分组对M个L2编码PDU进行连接分配,也就是对应不同的分组的L2编码PDU在不同的连接上发送。
参考图5,为本发明另一实施例提供的数据处理方法,可用于通信装置空口用户面协议栈或空口控制面协议栈,包括:
步骤510:对接收到的信号进行物理层处理后得到至少一个编码传输块的译码序列。
其中,译码序列可以包括硬值序列或软值序列,或者硬值序列和软值序列。
其中,物理层处理至少包括信道译码。不同系统的物理层处理可能存在差异,但是至少都会对从空口获取的信号进行信道译码。
通信装置接收到信号后通常在物理层进行解调,解速率匹配,解码,码块合并及校验,传输块校验等一项或多项操作得到软值或硬值形式的译码序列。软值是指译码或解调后每个比特(bit)的后验概率或每个比特的译码后后验概率的对数比等,常见的如对数似然比(Log Likelihood Ration,LLR)。硬值是指译码器输出的二进制译码结果,也就是每个bit判决为0或1。
其中,在本申请实施例中,译码得到的软值序列或硬值序列都是针对的经过发送端通信装置L2编码后的编码传输块。每个软值序列包括一个或多个软值,每个硬值序列包括一个或多个比特。
如果是通信装置之间建立多个连接,则各连接物理层分别处理接收到的信号得到译码序列。
步骤520:对至少一个编码传输块的译码序列进行接收端L2处理后得到一个或多个业务数据包。
在当前的无线通信系统中,物理层译码成功后,将译码得到的TB递交给L2。当物理层译码失败,例如译码结果CRC校验失败时,要么要求发送端的通信装置重传TB,要么在不能重传时丢弃错误TB。L2及上层应用会获知数据出现丢包。
在本申请实施例中,由于数据在L2进行了额外的编码,因此无论译码成功与否,物理层都会将译码结果以软值序列或硬值序列,或软值序列加硬值序列的形式递交给L2继续处理以还原数据,得到上层业务流的数据包。这里软值序列或硬值序列和编码传输块相对应,也可以说是与编码传输块对应的译码序列。可以根据L2译码需求,将与各编码传输块对应的软值序列,或者硬值序列,或者软值序列和硬值序列递交至L2继续进行接收端的处理。
步骤520是相对于前一方法实施例步骤310的逆处理过程。接收端L2处理至少包括L2译码,也还可以包括接收端L2协议子层中相应实体执行的该协议子层的处理。
可选地,接收到的数据可以在发送端通信装置的L2中进行了多次L2编码,则相应地在L2中也可以多次译码。
L2中用于译码的协议子层与L2中用于编码的协议子层是同一协议子层。
接收侧L2处理得到的接收数据将以业务数据包的形式递交至L2之上协议层(L3或者应用层等)。
可选地,译码序列在L2进行L2译码的前后,还可以由L2一个或多个协议子层处理。例 如,以L2译码子层为RLC为例,译码序列进入L2后,需要先经过MAC实体解复用,得到多个与MAC SDU对应的软值或硬值序列;RLC实体分别对对应的软值或硬值序列进行L2译码得到译码后的RLC SDU;各译码成功的RLC SDU依次经过PDCP实体,SDAP实体进行相应协议子层处理,得到一个或多个业务数据包递交至L2之上协议层。
在一种可选的实现方式中,发送端和接收端的通信装置之间可以交互L2编码相关的参数,包括以下一项或多项:是否启用L2编码,编码方案,码率,不等保护编码参数等。接收端的通信装置根据L2编码相关的参数确定启用L2编码时可以继续在L2对软值序列或硬值序列进行L2译码。可选地,如果没有启用L2编码,接收端的通信装置可以对译码失败的传输块请求重传或者丢弃译码失败的传输块。
其中,发送端和接收端的通信装置之间可以通过多种方式交互L2编码相关的参数,例如:通过UCI/DCI等经由控制信道进行带外信令或随路信令传输;也可预先通过高层下发指示,收发双端根据建链的指示进行相应的编码或译码;也可将L2编码相关的参数随数据一起传输给接收端通信装置,接收端通信装置将先对L2编码相关的参数进行解析,然后根据相应参数进行L2译码处理。
L2译码是根据L2编码方案进行译码的。例如对于LDPC码等,可以采用消息传递算法,如和积译码、置信度传播译码、最小和译码等;又例如对于卷积码等,可以采用维特比译码方法,也可采用BCJR译码算法。译码是否成功的判断可以通过编码本身的校验关系进行判断;当码本身的校验关系无法满足译码判断的可靠性要求时,也可以通过额外添加校验的方式进行判断,如添加CRC校验;也可结合两者同时判断。又例如编码方案采用的是系统码,即编码块中完整包含编码前的信息比特,则当物理层已经译码正确时,译码序列中包括信息比特,L2只需要从编码传输块提取信息比特即可。
可选地,接收端L2处理还可以包括L2解交织,L2解交织可以在L2译码之前,或者L2译码之后。L2解交织与发送端L2处理中的L2交织是对应的,是其逆过程。如果发送端L2处理中L2交织是在L2编码之后的,则接收端L2处理中L2解交织在L2译码之前,也就是先进行L2解交织,再进行L2译码。如果发送端L2处理中L2交织是在L2编码之前,则接收端L2处理中L2解交织在L2译码之后,也就是先进行L2译码,再进行L2解交织。
可选地,如果发送端L2处理用L2交织代理L2编码,则接收端L2处理中也相应用L2解交织代替L2译码。
参见图6,对本发明实施例的步骤520中接收端L2处理进行示例性说明,可以包括以下内容:
5210:根据T个编码传输块的译码序列得到M个L2编码PDU的译码序列,T为大于或者等于1的整数。
一种可能的实现方式中,每个编码传输块为一个L2编码PDU。例如,L2编码子层为MAC层,每个MAC PDU为一个传输块,也就是每个编码传输块为一个L2编码PDU。每个编码传输的译码序列对应的一个L2编码PDU的译码序列。
又一种可能的实现方式中,T个编码传输块的译码序列经过一个或多个L2协议子层实体进行相应子层在接收端的处理后得到M个L2编码PDU的译码序列。
5220:对M个L2编码PDU的译码序列进行L2译码或L2解交织中至少一项处理得到N个码块。
可以根据M个L2编码PDU的译码序列得到N个待L2译码序列,对N个待L2译码序 列进行L2译码或L2解交织中一项或两项处理得到N个码块。
一种可能的实现方式中,可以对M个L2编码PDU的译码序列进行解交织得到M个译码序列;对M个译码序列进行合并或解复用后得到N个待L2译码序列;对N个待L2译码序列进行L2译码得到N个码块。
又一种可能的实现方式中,L2译码子层可以对M个L2编码PDU的译码序列进行接收端该协议子层的处理得到N个待L2译码序列,例如,对M个L2编码PDU的译码序列进行可能的合并或解复用,去掉header,去掉序列号等操作。对N个待L2译码序列进行L2译码和L2解交织时,L2解交织可以在L2译码前后,与发送端对应即可。若L2解交织在L2译码之前,则先对N个待L2译码序列进行序列间或序列内解交织,然后对解交织后的N个待L2译码序列进行L2译码得到N个码块;如L2解交织在L2译码之后,则先对N个待L2译码序列进行L2译码得到N个待解交织的码块,然后对这N个待解交织的码块进行块间或块内解交织得到N个码块。
5230:根据N个码块得到接收的数据。
一种可能的实现方式中,每个码块对应一个数据单元,输出N个数据单元至L2上层或应用,也就是每个业务数据包对应一个数据单元。
又一种可能的实现方式中,N个码块还可以经过L2译码子层之上的一个或多个L2协议子层依次进行相应协议子层在接收端的处理,得到一个或多个数据单元输出至L2上层或应用层。例如,可以将多个码块级联得到数据单元。
本申请实施例的数据处理方法中,发送端通信装置在物理层之上对待发送数据额外进行编码,作为对物理层的信道编码进行补充,可以提高在极低重传次数要求甚至无重传要求下的纠错能力。相应地,接收端的通信装置在接收到包含额外编码数据的信号后,如果物理层译码失败,还可以继续将译码的软值或硬值递交至L2译码,提高译码的成功率。
下面以NR系统空口用户面协议栈,L2用于编码或译码的协议子层为RLC子层为例,对本申请实施例的一些可能的实现方式分别进行说明。其他通信系统中,L2协议栈可能存在差异,但是处理也是类似的,例如LTE系统中空口用于面协议栈没有SDAP协议子层,则可以直接从PDCP子层处理。需要说明的是,如前述实施例所述,L2用于编码的协议子层也可以为其他协议子层,本申请实施例并不以此为限制。此外,以下实施例中数据包个数,各协议子层SDU个数等均只是方便举例说明,并不以此为限制。例如,下述实施例中,待发送数据来自上层2个业务流,第一个业务流包括IP包1和IP包2,第二个业务流包括IP包3。在实际应用中,待发送数据也可以是1个业务流或者更多业务流,每个业务流的数据包也可以包括1个或多个。各IP包的长度可以相同,也可以不同。
其中,图7-图9所示的发送端的通信装置处理过程,是对图3以及图4所述实施例的举例说明,图7-图9所示的接收端的通信装置处理过程,是对图5以及图6所述实施例的举例说明。
示例1:
图7为本申请一实施例提供的一种数据处理的示意图,下面对发送端通信装置的L2和物理层对数据发送的处理,以及相应地接收端通信装置的L2和物理层对接收数据的处理进行示例性说明。
发送端的通信装置从应用层获取待发送数据,以IP包形式,例如,IP包1~3递交至L2处理得到至少一个传输块,物理层对至少一个传输块进行信道编码等处理后得到发送信号, 包括:
1.L2 SDAP:L2 SDAP实体对待发送的IP包1~3进行SDAP子层处理后得到SDAP PDU递交给PDCP子层处理。
SDAP实体将待发送的IP包分别映射到RB1和RB2,如图6所示,IP包1和IP包2映射到RB1,IP包3映射到RB2。SDAP实体将各IP包作为SDAP SDU,分别添加SDAP Header后得到对应的3个SDAP PDU,并将这些SDAP PDU递交至PDCP子层处理。
2.L2 PDCP:L2 PDCP实体对3个SDAP PDU进行PDCP子层处理后得到3个PDCP PDU递交给RLC子层处理。
PDCP实体将各SDAP PDU作为PDCP SDU,根据其对应的RB的PDCP配置对PDCP SDU进行以下一项或多项处理:头压缩,加密,完整性保护,重排序等,然后添加PDCP Header后得到对应的3个PDCP PDU,并将PDCP PDU递交至RLC子层处理。
3.L2 RLC:L2 RLC实体对待发送数据的3个PDCP PDU进行L2编码或L2交织中至少一项处理得到5个编码RLC PDU。
具体地,可以包括以下步骤:
1)L2 RLC实体根据3个PDCP PDU得到1个待L2编码码块(code block,CB)。
L2 RLC实体将3个PDCP PDU合并得到一个待L2编码码块CB 1。
图7中检测校验比特C和填充比特F的位置只是示例性的放在码块后,当然也可以放在码块的其他位置,如放在码块前,或码块中间,并不以此为限制。待L2编码码块CB可以参见前述实施例说明,也可以不包括检测校验比特C或者填充比特F。
需要说明的是,此处是以上层PDU组成1个待L2编码码块CB1为例进行说明,实际应用中也可能有多个PDU,其长度总和可能超过编码的最大码块长度,根据多个PDU可以得到更多待L2编码码块,每个待L2编码码块的长度小于或等于最大码块长度。可选地,每个待L2编码码块还可以包括一个或多个校验比特C。可选地,如果有填充比特C,则填充比特可以仅填充在其中一个待L2编码码块中,也可以均匀分布在各个待L2编码码块中。
2)L2 RLC实体对待L2编码码块进行L2编码或L2交织中至少一项处理得到5个RLC编码PDU。
其中,L2编码和L2交织可以参考前述实施例描述。
可选地,在提供不等保护(unequal protect)能力编码时,由于不同的业务流的数据重要性可能不同,相同的业务数据流中数据的重要性也可以不同。以图示为例,RB1的重要性优先级小于RB2,RB2中的数据对可靠性的要求较RB1高,则RB2对应的RLC SDU3中的比特的重要性高于RB1对应的RLC SDU1和RLC SDU2中比特的重要性。而RB1中IP包1的重要性要高于IP包2的重要性,则RLC SDU1中比特的重要性高于RLC SDU2中比特的重要性。可以将重要性高的比特,例如RLC SDU 3中的比特放在编码方案中可靠性高的比特位置,也可以根据重要性高的比特的位置,改造编码方案,使得改造后的编码方案中,这些重要性高的比特的位置对于高可靠性。
CB1经过RLC编码后得到L2编码块coded CB 1;RLC实体可根据RLC配置生成RLC SN,并根据物理层或MAC层的数据包大小的指示对编码块或交织后的编码块进行可能的分割或打包操作,得到多个编码RLC SDU。如图所示,得到5个RLC编码SDU。RLC实体分别对RLC编码SDU添加RLC Header后得到RLC编码PDU。RLC实体将RLC编码PDU递交给MAC子层处理。图7所示,编码块coded CB1被分割成5个RLC编码SDU,RLC编码SDU 1~SDU 5。需要说明的是,图7是一种示例性的分割,当有多个编码块时,可以每个编码块 单独划分,同一个RLC编码SDU只包括一个编码块中的部分或全部比特。也可以混合编码块划分SDU,则同一个RLC编码SDU也可以包括多个编码块中的部分比特。在又一种可能的实现方式中,对编码块也可以不进行分割,每个编码块分别作为一个RLC编码SDU。本发明实施例在此不做限制。
从图7可以看到,L2交织可以分别位于L2编码之前,L2编码之后,或者对编码块分割之后。
L2交织可以是在块内或者块间按照交织图样进行比特交织,或者在SDU内进行交织,此处不做限制。
4.L2 MAC:L2 MAC实体根据5个RLC编码PDU得到2个传输块。
每个RLC编码PDU在MAC层对应一个MAC SDU,MAC实体分别对每个MAC SDU添加子头,进行复用等操作得到至少一个MAC PDU,每个MAC PDU作为一个传输块递交给物理层。以图6所示为例,编码传输块TB 1包括3个MAC SDU,编码传输块TB 2包括2个MAC SDU。
5.PHY:物理层实体对2个编码传输块进行物理层信道编码等处理后得到用于发送的信号。
物理层对传输块处理可以参见前述实施例说明,例如,物理层实体可以对每个传输块添加CRC比特段,码块分割及码块CRC添加,信道编码,速率匹配,调制,预编码,OFDM处理等得到用于发送的信号。
发送端的通信装置将得到的信号发送给接收端的通信装置。接收端的通信装置接收到信号后执行下述步骤:
1.PHY:
1)物理层实体对接收到的信号进行物理层信道译码处理得到与两个编码编码传输块TB1和TB 2对应的译码序列,其中译码序列可以包括软值序列或硬值序列,或者软值序列和硬值序列。
物理层对接收到的信号进行处理可以参见前述实施例说明。信号在物理层进行解调,解速率匹配,解码,码块合并及校验,传输块校验等一项或多项操作得到软值或硬值形式的序列。
2)物理层实体将与编码传输块对应的译码序列递交给MAC子层。如图所示物理层实体将TB1和TB2递交给MAC子层,相应地与TB1和TB2对应的译码序列也同时递交至MAC子层。
物理层实体可以根据L2编码相关的参数确定是否将编码传输块及其对应的译码序列递交给MAC子层。可选地,如果没有启用L2编码,物理层实体可以对译码失败的传输块请求重传或者丢弃译码失败的传输块。
其中L2编码相关的参数及参数的获取可以参见前述实施例中描述。
为了方便描述,以下在L2译码前将传输块或PDU递交至L2协议子层也包括了将与传输块或PDU对应的译码序列递交至L2协议子层,对传输块或PDU进行处理包括了对与传输块或PDU对应的译码序列进行处理。
2.L2 MAC:MAC实体将TB1和TB2作为2个MAC PDU,根据MAC配置对MAC PDU进行去掉子头,解复用等操作得到如图所示5个MAC SDU,并将5个MAC SDU作为RLC编码PDU递交至RLC子层处理。
3.L2 RLC:RLC实体根据5个编码RLC PDU进行L2译码或L2解交织中至少一项处理 得到3个PDCP PDU。
具体地,可以包括以下步骤:
1)RLC实体根据5个RLC编码PDU的译码序列得到1个编码块的待L2译码序列。
RLC实体将各RLC编码PDU去掉RLC Header得到5个RLC编码SDU,对5个RLC编码SDU的译码序列进行级联得到1个编码块的待L2译码序列。
2)RLC实体对编码块的待L2译码序列进行L2译码或L2解交织中一项或两项处理得到码块CB 1。
其中,L2译码和L2解交织可以参考前述实施例描述。
RLC实体可以根据L2编码参数对待L2译码序列进行L2译码可以得到相应的软值序列或硬值序列,根据软值序列或硬值序列进行校验或判决后得到码块CB 1。L2译码可以参考前述实施例,此处不再赘述。
译码后的码块不包括校验比特和填充比特。
当L2译码失败时,如果支持重传,则可以将L2译码失败结果通知到物理层,由物理层实体确定是否请求重传。如果不进行重传,物理层确定不做重传,或业务数据不支持重传,也可以将L2译码失败结果通知到上层应用层。
从图6可以看出,L2解交织可以位于L2译码之前,L2译码之后,或者对编码RLC SDU级联成编码块之前。
3)RLC实体将译码得到的码块CB拆分成多个PDCP PDU。
如果CB 1包括多个PDU,则可以将CB 1进行拆分成多个PDCP PDU。如果CB1只有一个PDU,则无需进行拆分。
4.L2 PDCP:PDCP实体根据PDCP配置对各PDCP PDU进行处理,例如,剥除PDCP Header,完整性校验,解密,解压缩等得到PDCP SDU1~3。PDCP实体将PDCP SDU作为SDAP PDU递交至SDAP处理。
5.L2 SDAP:SDAP实体对SDAP PDU进行剥除SDAP Header等操作得到SDAP SDU,将SDAP SDU作为IP包发送至上层应用层。
需要说明的是,此处以RLC层编码的方式为例进行说明,也可以在其他协议子层进行编码,将L2编码或译码,交织或解交织等步骤放在相应协议子层即可。例如通过PDCP编码,PDCP实体将SDU进行编码或编码以及交织后,通过RLC子层进行分割,MAC子层复用得到的传输块递交至物理层处理。又例如,通过MAC编码,对MAC PDU进行编码得到编码MAC PDU递交至物理层处理。
示例2:
图7所示,为本申请又一实施例提供的一种数据处理的示意图。与示例1不同之处在于RLC编码是分组进行。示例2是按照RB进行分组为例说明的,可以理解的是,其他方式分组,如可靠性要求,连接等也是类似的,区别在于RLC编码时得到的待编码CB是按照相应方式划分分组的。
发送端通信装置从应用层获取待发送数据,以IP包形式递交至L2处理。
L2 SDAP,L2 PDCP,L2 MAC及PHY的处理可参见实施例1中发送端通信装置对应的L2 SDAP,L2 PDCP,L2 MAC以及PHY的处理描述。L2 RLC的处理与实施例1中L2 RLC有所不同:
1~2:参见实施例1中发送端通信装置的1~2
3.L2 RLC:L2 RLC实体对待发送数据的3个PDCP PDU根据对应的RB进行分组L2编码或分组L2交织中至少一项处理得到5个编码RLC PDU。
具体地,可以包括以下步骤:
1)L2 RLC实体根据3个PDCP PDU及其对应的分组得到2个待L2编码码块(code block,CB)。
L2 RLC实体将3个PDCP PDU按照对应的RB分组合并得到2个待L2编码码块CB 1和CB 2。可以看到CB 1包括与RB 1对应的PDCP PDU 1和PDCP PDU 2,CB2包括与RB 2对应的PDCP PDU 3。不同分组的数据分别形成待L2编码码块CB,不在同一待L2编码码块中。需要说明的是,如果按照其他方式分组,例如,按可靠性要求分组,则可能将不同RB的相同可靠性要求的比特分在同一组,则同一待L2编码码块可以包括不同RB的具有相同可靠性要求的比特;又例如,按连接分组,可以将分配到不同连接的比特分在同一组,对同一组的比特划分待L2编码码块。这里只是举例,本发明实施例并不限于此。
同前述实施例,待L2编码码块可以包括一个或多个检测校验比特C,还可以包括一个或多个填充比特F。可参见前述实施例对待L2编码码块,L2编码等的描述,此处不再赘述。
2)L2 RLC实体对待L2编码码块CB 1和CB 2分别进行L2编码或L2交织中至少一项处理得到5个RLC编码PDU。
其中,L2编码和L2交织可以参考前述实施例描述。
可选地,各分组的编码码率可以根据对应的业务流数据的保护程度确定,例如,可以根据RB的QoS要求进行设计,也可结合信道的波动范围测量进行设计。因此可以比较方便地采用不同的编码码率进行编码,从而提供不同的纠错能力。因此分组编码可以采用不同的编码码率,或者不等保护能力编码,或者不同编码方案等。
CB 1经过RLC编码后得到L2编码块coded CB 1,CB 2经过RLC编码后得到L2编码块coded CB 2;RLC实体可根据RLC配置生成RLC SN,并根据物理层或MAC层的数据包大小的指示对编码块或交织后的编码块进行可能的分割或打包操作,得到多个编码RLC SDU。如图所示,得到5个RLC编码SDU。RLC实体分别对RLC编码SDU添加RLC Header后得到RLC编码PDU。RLC实体将RLC编码PDU递交给MAC子层处理。
一种可能的实现方式中,不同分组的一个或多个编码块code CB在分组内进行分割或复用,因此得到的RLC编码SDU中包括的比特也是同一分组的;图6所示,编码块coded CB1被分割成3个RLC编码SDU,RLC编码SDU 1~SDU 3,编码块coded CB 2被分割成2个RLC编码SDU,RLC编码SDU 4~SDU 5。需要说明的是,图6是一种示例性的分割,当有多个编码块时,可以每个编码块单独划分,同一个RLC编码SDU只包括一个编码块中的部分或全部比特。也可以混合编码块划分SDU,则同一个RLC编码SDU也可以包括多个编码块中的部分比特。在又一种可能的实现方式中,对编码块也可以不进行分割,每个编码块分别作为一个RLC编码SDU。本发明实施例在此不做限制。
又一种可能的实现方式中,不同分组的一个或多个编码块code CB可以合并后统一分割或复用,因此得到的RLC编码SDU中包括的比特可以为不同分组的。本发明实施例在此不做限制。
从图6可以看到,L2交织可以分别位于L2编码之前,L2编码和编码块分割之间,或者对编码块分割之后。
L2交织可以是按照分组在块内或者块间按照交织图样进行比特交织,或者在SDU内进行交织,此处不做限制。
在一种可选的方式中,L2交织在L2编码之前或者L2编码和编码块分割之间,则对RB 1对应的CB 1或编码块CB 1进行交织,对RB 2对应的CB 2或编码块CB 2进行交织。需要说明的是,如果一个分组有多个CB,则对这多个CB进行分组内的块内或块间交织。
又一种可选的方式中,L2交织在L2编码和编码块分割之间,可以对编码码块CB 1和编码码块CB 2进行混合交织,这样在L2编码进行分组保护,而在编码后混合交织,使得不同分组的数据尽可能分散在不同传输块,不同传输时机发送。
又一种可选的方式中,L2交织在对编码块分割之后,可以在SDU内或SDU间分组进行交织。
4~5:参见示例1中发送端通信装置的4~5
发送端的通信装置将得到的信号发送给接收端的通信装置。接收端的通信装置接收到信号后的处理和实施例1的区别也体现在L2 RLC,如下:
1~2:参见示例1中接收端通信装置1~2。
3.L2 RLC:RLC实体根据5个编码RLC PDU进行L2译码或L2解交织中至少一项处理得到3个PDCP PDU。
具体地,可以包括以下步骤:
1)RLC实体根据5个RLC编码PDU的译码序列得到2个编码块的待L2译码序列。
RLC实体将各编码RLC PDU去掉RLC Header得到5个编码RLC SDU,根据RLC SDU携带的参数将5个编码RLC SDU恢复成2个待L2译码序列。可以理解的是,待L2译码序列个数和L2编码的编码块个数是对应的。
2)RLC实体对编码块的待L2译码序列进行L2译码或L2解交织中一项或两项处理得到2个码块CB 1和CB 2。
其中,L2译码和L2解交织可以参考前述实施例描述。
RLC实体可以根据L2编码参数分别对2个待译码序列进行L2译码可以得到相应的软值序列或硬值序列,根据软值序列或硬值序列进行校验或判决后得到码块CB 1和CB 2。L2译码可以参考前述实施例,此处不再赘述。
译码后的序列不包括校验比特和填充比特。
当L2译码失败时,如果支持重传,则可以将L2译码失败结果通知到物理层,由物理层实体确定是否请求重传。如果不进行重传,物理层确定不做重传,或业务数据不支持重传,也可以将L2译码失败结果通知到上层应用层。
可选地,如果L2编码前后进行过交织,则在相应步骤前后需要进行解交织。
3)RLC实体将译码得到的码块CB 1和CB 2拆分成3个PDCP PDU。
如果CB 1包括多个PDU,则可以将CB 1进行拆分成多个PDCP PDU。如果CB1只有一个PDU,则无需进行拆分。如图7所示,CB 1拆分成2个PDCP PDU,CB 2拆分成1个PDCP PDU。
4~5:参见示例1中接收端通信装置的4~5。
需要说明的是,此处以RLC层编码的方式为例进行说明,同样也可以在其他协议子层进行编码,将L2编码或译码,交织或解交织等步骤放在相应协议子层即可。例如通过PDCP编码,PDCP实体分别对PDCP SDU进行编码后,通过RLC子层进行分割,MAC子层复用得到的传输块递交至物理层处理。又例如,通过MAC编码,对MAC PDU进行编码得到编码MAC PDU递交至物理层处理。
示例3:
图9所示,为本申请又一实施例提供的一种数据处理的示意图。可用于多连接场景下的数据传输,例如LTE和NR双连接,NR与WLAN(如WiFi)双连接,无线接入网和固网等多连接,NR中高低频不同频段多连接,以及在中继网络中,如IAB场景,数据经由多个中继进行转发的场景等。当支持多种连接时,如果两个通信装置之间建立多个连接传输数据,则传输块将分别由不同连接的物理层处理后得到用于该连接发送的信号。可以根据每个连接可以承载的数据大小、数据类型等中的一项或多项进行数据分配。其中进行数据分发的L2协议子层可以是L2用于编码的协议子层,如图8所示,在RLC层编码,RLC分发,也可以是L2用于编码的协议子层的下层,例如RLC层编码,MAC层分发。
发送端的通信装置从应用层获取待发送数据,,以IP包形式,例如,IP包1~3递交至L2处理得到至少一个传输块,物理层对至少一个传输块进行信道编码等处理后得到发送信号,包括:
1~2,参见示例1中发送端通信装置的1~2。
3.L2 RLC:L2 RLC实体对待发送数据的3个PDCP PDU进行L2编码或L2交织中至少一项处理得到5个编码RLC PDU。
一种可能的实现方式中,数据在不同连接的分发由MAC层处理,则L2 RLC实体的处理可以参考前述示例1或2。
又一种可能的实现方式中,数据在不同连接的分发由RLC层处理:
RLC实体处理的步骤1)可以参考前述示例1或2中对应步骤1),即可以不区分分组,也可以区分分组处理。
RLC实体处理的步骤2)也可以参考前述示例1或2中对应步骤2),区别在于对于编码块进行分割或组合时需要考虑将数据分发至哪个连接发送,可以根据各连接可以承载的数据大小、数据类型或者数据重要性等中的一项或多项进行数据分配。例如,可以将重要的数据分配到可靠性高的连接上。又例如,当存在高频段连接和低频段连接时,重要数据可以在高频段连接上发送,不重要数据可以在低频段连接上发送。需要说明的是此处仅为举例,并不以此为限制。
可以理解的是,如果按照示例2进行了分组L2编码或分组L2交织,每个分组可以对应到一个连接,在L2编码后不对编码块进行混合或者混合交织,则示例2中RLC的处理步骤2)也自然支持了将不同分组分配到不同连接上发送。
如果是示例1,或者示例2中在L2编码后对编码块进行混合或者混合交织,则可以按照连接将分配至该连接的编码块比特分割或复用成一个或多个RLC编码SDU。也可以根据分配到不同连接的数据量以及相应连接的MAC或物理层指示的大小进行分割或复用。
例如,可以按照前述示例1中L2 RLC进行PDCP PDU整体编码或者编码和交织,得到编码块或者交织后的编码块,根据分配到不同连接的数据量将编码块或者交织后的编码块比特分配到不同连接,或者根据不同连接对应的重要性优先级将编码块或者交织后的编码块比特按照比特的重要性分配到不同连接;分别根据连接对应的MAC或物理层指示的大小将分配至该连接的编码块比特分割或复用成一个或多个RLC编码SDU。不同连接的编码RLC PDU被递交到不同连接的MAC层处理。
又例如,可以按照前述实施例2中L2 RLC进行分组L2编码或者分组L2交织,一种可能的实现方式中,由于不同分组的数据是分别编码的,可以对应不同的MAC和物理层,因此RLC实体可以按照分组的优先级确定对应的发送的连接,则不同的MAC和物理层是属于不同连接的,也就可以分配到不同连接上处理,例如,以分组为RB为例,连接1上发送RB1 的传输块,连接2上发送RB2的传输TB2。又一种可能的实现方式中,L2 RLC进行分组L2编码或者分组L2交织,然后根据分配到不同连接的数据量将各分组的编码块混合或混合交织后,根据连接对应的MAC或物理层指示的大小分割或复用得到一个或多个RLC编码PDU。例如,以分组为RB为例,连接1上发送RB2的传输块TB2,以及RB1的部分RLC编码SDU组成的传输块,连接2上发送RB1的部分RLC编码SDU组成的传输块。
需要说明的是上述均为举例说明,本发明实施例并不以此为限制。
4:若数据分发是在RLC层处理的,则4可以参见示例1中发送端通信装置的4;若数据在不同连接的分发由MAC层处理,则由MAC实体在对RLC编码PDU进行复用时根据各连接可以承载的数据大小、数据类型或者数据重要性等中的一项或多项进行数据分配。
MAC实体可以根据各连接可以承载的数据大小、数据类型或者数据重要性等中的一项或多项复用一个或多个RLC编码PDU得到各连接上发送的MAC PDU。
5:参见示例1中发送端通信装置的5,不同连接的物理层实体遵循该连接的处理方式。
接收端的通信装置接收到多个连接的信号后,分别经过不同连接的物理层处理得到不同连接的软值序列或硬值序列,经过不同连接的MAC层处理后递交至RLC层处理。可以参加前述示例1或2中处理。

可选地,收发单元1030还可以用于将L2编码相关的参数通知给接收端的通信装置,其中,所述L2编码相关的参数包括以下一项或多项:是否启用L2编码,编码方案,码率,不等保护编码参数等。
其中,上述方法实施例涉及的各操作的所有相关内容均可以援引到对应功能模块的功能描述,在此不再赘述。
