在设备到设备通信(device to device,D2D)中,侧行资源是用于设备之间通信的资源。侧行资源的选择方法有两种,一种是模式一(mode1),由基站为侧行链路分配侧行资源,另一种是模式二(mode2),由发送侧的终端设备从资源池中检测出可用资源,该可用资源可以是资源池中受干扰较小或者不受干扰的资源,发送侧的终端设备基于检测出的可用资源确定侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI),将SCI发送至接收侧的终端设备来进行资源预留。
在模式二中,发送侧的终端设备针对某个资源检测时,由于发送侧的终端设备和某个终端设备(可以称为第三方终端设备)的距离较远,对于发送侧的终端设备来说,该第三方终端设备可能为隐藏节点,发送侧的终端设备并未检测到该资源被该第三方终端设备占用,且将该资源确定为可用资源。

3)侧行链路(sidelink)资源
侧行资源也可以称为侧行链路资源,或资源,或传输资源。本申请中,侧行链路也可以称之为边链路,或者旁链路,或者PC5接口链路,或者终端设备间链路。
在D2D通信中,侧行资源是用于终端设备和终端设备之间的通信的资源。侧行资源可以包括频域的侧行资源和时域的侧行资源。本申请主要讨论关于时域的侧行资源,在非特指情况下,后续出现的侧行资源均可以指时域的侧行资源,这里做统一说明。
从传输类型角度,侧行资源可以包括侧行链路发送资源和侧行链路接收资源。其中,侧行链路发送资源用于发送信息,如发送控制信息和/或数据。侧行链路接收资源用于接收信息,如接收控制信息和/或数据。
4)两级SCI

5)其它
本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”可被互换使用。“至少一个”是指一个或者多个,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“和/或”,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的情况,其中A, B可以是单数或者复数。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。“以下至少一项(个)”或其类似表达,是指的这些项中的任意组合,包括单项(个)或复数项(个)的任意组合。例如,a,b,或c中的至少一项(个),可以表示:a,b,c,a-b,a-c,b-c,或a-b-c,其中a,b,c可以是单个,也可以是多个。
以及,除非有相反的说明,本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词是用于对多个对象进行区分,不用于限定多个对象的顺序、时序、优先级或者重要程度。例如,第一值和第二值,只是为了区分不同的取值,而并不是表示这两个取值的内容、优先级或者重要程度等的不同。
请参见图1,为本申请实施例提供的一种无线通信系统网络架构的示意图。无线通信系统包括网络设备和多个终端设备。示例性的,如图1中,无线通信系统可以包括网络设备、终端设备1、终端设备2,这两个终端设备可以均与网络设备连接,或者这两个终端设备中可以只有终端设备1与网络设备连接,终端设备2不与网络设备连接,这两个终端设备之间也可以通过侧行链路进行通信,也就是终端设备1是有网络覆盖的终端设备,终端设备2是部分网络覆盖的终端设备。
图1以只有终端设备1与网络设备连接为例。当然图1中的终端设备的数量只是举例,在实际应用中,网络设备可以为多个终端设备提供服务。
图1中的网络设备例如为接入网设备,例如基站。其中,接入网设备在不同的系统对应不同的设备,例如在第四代移动通信技术(the 4th generation,4G)系统中可以对应eNB,在5G系统中对应5G中的接入网设备,例如gNB。
其中,图1中的终端设备是以UE为例,但本申请实施例中的终端设备不限于此。
在网络设备与终端设备1进行通信时,网络设备可作为发送端,终端设备1可作为接收端;或者,网络设备可作为接收端,终端设备1可作为发送端。
示例性的,终端设备1可以通过网络设备调度的上行资源,向网络设备发送上行数据,其中,该上行资源是由网络设备通过上行控制信息调度的。终端设备1还可以通过网络设备调度的下行资源,接收来自网络设备的下行数据,其中,该下行资源是由网络设备通过下行控制信息调度的。
在终端设备1与终端设备2进行通信时,终端设备1以及终端设备2之间可进行侧行通信。其中,终端设备1可作为发送端,终端设备2可作为接收端。或者,终端设备2可作为发送端,终端设备1可作为接收端。
示例性的,终端设备1与终端设备2之间通过侧行资源传输数据。侧行资源的选择方法有两种:
模式一是集中控制式的方法,中心控制设备(例如基站或中继站等)将资源通过调度的方式分配给发送侧的终端设备使用。
模式二是基于竞争的分布式资源复用方法,由发送侧的终端设备通过竞争的方式从资源池中获得可用资源,此处,资源池是由基站分出的一整块资源,各终端设备在这整块资源中竞争不受干扰或受干扰程度较小的小块资源,该小块资源即可称为是可用资源。发送侧的终端设备基于检测出的可用资源确定SCI,并将SCI发送至接收侧的终端设备,以进行资源预留。
如图2为本申请实施例提供的一种单个包优先级(prose per-packet priority,PPPP)和阈值(threshold)的对应关系。参照图2说明,发送侧的终端设备在资源池中竞争资源时, 需要检测该资源上的SCI中并解读对应的PPPP,以及资源具体位置,并且根据自身PPPP(如图2中纵列上终端设备的PPPP)与被检测到的资源上的其它终端设备的PPPP(如图2中横列上其它终端设备的PPPP)确定相应的阈值(如图2中横列与纵列交叉处的阈值),如果被检测到的资源满足对应的阈值,比如说,在该资源上检测到的信号强度值小于该阈值,则确定该资源为可用资源,否则确定该资源为不可用资源。
例如,发送侧的终端设备对应PPPP5,其它终端设备对应PPPP4,则确定阈值为TH36,若资源的信号强度值不高于TH36,则确定该资源为可用资源。
这里以PPPP作为示例,PPPP值越低,业务的优先级或数据的优先级越高。也可以理解为,优先级值越低,相应的数据的优先级越高,或者说,优先级值越低,相应的逻辑信道的优先级越高。
信号强度值可以理解为参考信号接收功率(reference signal received power,RSRP)、接收信号强度(received signal strength indication,RSSI)或信号与干扰加噪声比(signal to interference and noise ratio,SINR)。相应的,在资源检测时,若测量资源的RSRP,则阈值为RSRP阈值;若测量资源的RSSI,则阈值为RSSI阈值;若测量资源的SINR,则阈值为SINR阈值。
本申请中,在探测/检测资源中,初始阈值用于比较信号强度来判断/确定资源是否为可用资源,也可以将初始阈值称之为阈值(threshold)。
本申请中,竞争资源又可以称为是检测资源、探测资源、选择资源、感应(sensing)资源或确定资源。
在模式二中,发送侧的终端设备每发送一次SCI,可以预留最多N个资源(N为正整数),并且同一个SCI中预留的资源是用于传输同一个传输块(transmission block,TB);或者,同一个SCI中预留的资源也可以是第一个资源到第X个资源用于传输一个传输块,第X+1个资源到第N个资源用于传输另一个传输块,其中X为大于等于1且小于等于N的正整数,以此类推,不再一一枚举。
可选的,N为3或者为大于3的任何一个整数。
可选的,SCI中还可以携带资源预留周期,一个SCI中预留的N个资源可以以该资源预留周期进行重复预留。
需要说明的是,不同资源预留周期内预留的资源用于传输不同的传输块。例如,第一个资源预留周期内的N个资源用于传输传输块1,第二个资源预留周期内的N个资源用于传输传输块2,第三个资源预留周期内的N个资源用于传输传输块3,以此类推。
如图3所示为预留的侧行资源示意图。在每个资源预留周期内存在三块预留的侧行资源,在第一个资源预留周期内预留的侧行资源用于传输传输块1,在第二个资源预留周期内预留的侧行资源用于传输传输块2。需要说明的是,每个资源预留周期内预留的所有侧行资源要求限定在一个时间窗内,也即预留的侧行资源不能超出时间窗。
本申请中,资源预留周期,也可以称之为预留资源周期,或预留周期,或资源周期。
本申请中,传输块也可以称之为数据包(data packet)。
在模式二中,发送侧的终端设备在检测资源时,可能存在隐藏节点问题,解释为,发送侧的终端设备在资源池中检测资源时,对于某个资源,由于发送侧的终端设备和某个终端设备(可以称为第三方终端设备)的距离较远,发送侧的终端设备可能并未检测到该资源正在被该第三方终端设备占用,且将该资源确定为可用资源。基于此,发送侧的终端设 备检测出的可用资源的准确率较低。
参照如图4示出一种无线通信系统,该无线通信系统中终端设备A、终端设备B、终端设备C、终端设备D共享资源池。终端设备A通过资源1向终端设备B发送数据,当终端设备C需要向终端设备B发送数据时,终端设备C在资源池中检测资源,由于终端设备C与终端设备A的距离较远,终端设备C并未检测到资源1正在被终端设备A占用,则对于终端设备C来说,终端设备A为隐藏节点,终端设备C将资源1作为可用资源。也即,终端设备C错误将资源1确定为可用资源。
基于上述问题,提供一种由辅助终端设备执行资源检测的方法,辅助终端设备可以理解成接收侧的终端设备,或接收侧的终端设备附近的终端设备。该辅助终端设备与发送侧的终端设备共享一个资源池,由辅助终端设备对资源池中的资源进行检测,可以避免隐藏节点问题,有助于提升检测出的可用资源的准确率。
例如图4中,终端设备C可以选择终端设备B或终端设备D作为辅助终端设备,示例性的,终端设备D辅助终端设备C检测资源,并将检测到的可用资源的资源指示信息发送至终端设备C,终端设备C根据该资源指示信息确定资源池中的可用资源。
在辅助终端设备辅助发送侧的终端设备在资源池中检测资源时,发送侧的终端设备需要将资源检测所对应的资源选择参数发送至辅助终端设备,从而辅助终端设备基于资源选择参数,在资源池中辅助发送侧的终端设备检测资源。
其中,资源选择参数也可以称之为业务特征参数,或业务特征,或资源特征,或特征信息。资源选择参数包括优先级(priority)、初始阈值、阈值提升次数、最大阈值、数据特征(traffic feature)、数据量、资源检测窗、资源检测相关时长、包时延预算(packet delay budge,PDB)、资源预留周期中至少一项或多项。
其中,优先级可以是PPPP或业务质量(quality of service,QoS)优先级,或者任何表征待传输数据级别的标识。阈值可以是与信号强度值相关的阈值,比如,RSRP阈值、RSSI阈值或SINR等。根据优先级和/阈值检测资源的实现方式可参照如图2所示实施例。
进一步的,可以先根据优先级和初始阈值检测资源,若检测出的可用资源的比例小于或等于预设比例,则可以按照预设偏移量提升阈值,并根据提升后的阈值进一步检测可用资源。阈值提升次数为提升阈值的最大次数,也可以理解为最大提升次数,或者最大允许的阈值提升次数等;最大阈值为提升阈值后阈值的最大值,在基于提升阈值检测资源时,提升后的阈值不能超过最大阈值。换言之,初始阈值、阈值提升次数与最大阈值之间的关系为,将初始阈值按照预设偏移量提升阈值提升次数之后,得到的提升后阈值小于或等于最大阈值。其中,预设偏移量是网络设备通过RRC信令配置或者预先设定的一个值。
数据量可以包括缓冲状态报告(buffer status report,BSR)和/或资源所需子载波(subchannel)数。
数据特征包括数据周期,或者数据是周期的还是非周期的。
资源检测相关时长可以包括第一时长、第二时长、第三时长、第四时长、第五时长中的至少一个或多个的组合。具体的,第一时长为终端设备完成资源检测和选择过程所需要的时长,第二时长为终端设备识别候选资源和选择用于侧行链路传输的资源所需要的时长,第三时长为终端设备对于反馈信息的处理时延时长,第四时长为终端设备的资源选择窗相对于资源检测窗的延时时长,或者说资源选择窗的起始时刻相对于资源检测窗的终结时刻的时延时长/滞后时间/滞后时长,第五时长为终端设备完成SCI解码/解析的时长,或者终 端设备完成SCI解码/解析并且进行RSRP/RSSI测量的时长。
可选的,终端设备识别候选资源和选择用于侧行链路传输的资源所需要的时长可以为终端设备识别候选资源和选择用于潜在的侧行链路传输的资源集合所需要的时长。
可选的,RSRP测量为在资源检测过程中对于DMRS的RSRP测量。可选的,RSSI测量为在资源检测过程中对于侧行链路能量的测量。
如图5所示,为本申请示例性提供的一种资源检测与选择示意图。作为一个示例,上述第一时长可以是图5中的T3,上述第二时长可以是图5中的T proc,1,上述第四时长可以是图5中的T1,上述第五时长可以是图5中的T proc,0
可选的,上述这些参数是辅助终端设备的参数,辅助终端设备获取预先配置的这些参数,辅助终端设备根据这些参数或基于这些参数进行资源检测和/或资源选择。其中,获取可以理解为确定。预先配置可以是缺省定义的值,或者由网络设备通过RRC信令发送给辅助终端设备的。
发送侧的终端设备将资源选择参数发送至辅助终端设备时,会产生大量的信令开销。
为降低发送侧的终端设备与辅助终端设备之间的信令开销,本申请实施例提供一种通信方法,该方法可由两个终端设备执行,这两个终端设备例如为第一终端设备和第二终端设备。此外,该方法还可以由能够支持终端设备实现该方法所需的功能的通信装置执行,通信装置例如芯片系统。
示例性的,如图1中,第一终端设备是终端设备1,第二终端设备是终端设备2,终端设备2辅助终端设备1在资源池中检测资源;或,第一终端设备是终端设备2,第二终端设备是终端设备1,终端设备1辅助终端设备2在资源池中检测资源。
本申请实施例提供一种通信方法,具体可参照如图6示出的流程图。
步骤601,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送索引信息。
相应的,所述第二终端设备接收来自所述第一终端设备的索引信息。
第一终端设备和第三终端设备建立侧行链路连接,第一终端设备作为发送侧的终端设备,第三终端设备作为接收侧的终端设备。当第一终端设备需要向第三终端设备发送侧行信息时,可以触发第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
此处,第二终端设备可以是第三终端设备,也可以是第三终端设备附近且共享该资源池的终端设备。当第二终端设备是第三终端设备附近且共享该资源池的终端设备时,第一终端设备和第二终端设备也需要建立侧行链路连接。
可选的,第二终端设备位于第三终端设备附近,且第二终端设备的周边干扰情形与第三终端设备的周边干扰情形近似。
如下为本申请实施例提供的一种可能的确定第二终端设备的方法:
第一终端设备若确定第二终端设备满足预设条件,则可以将第二终端设备作为辅助终端设备。其中,第二终端设备满足预设条件可以为:第二终端设备的第一参数大于或等于第一预设值;或者,第二终端设备的第二参数小于或等于第二预设值。其中,第一参数与信道质量关联,第二参数与反馈信息关联。
进一步的,该信道质量可以是第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间信道的质量。该反馈信息可以是第一组播组中的反馈信息。所述第二终端设备包括在第一组播组中。反馈信息包括肯定确认(acknowledgement,ACK)和否定确认(not-acknowledgement,NACK)。
基于组播(groupcast)的反馈方式有两种:
第一种反馈方式中,接收端反馈NACK。即接收端不反馈ACK,接收端在接收不正确时,在共有的反馈资源上反馈NACK。
第二种反馈方式中,接收端既可以反馈ACK,也可以反馈NACK。即接收端接收正确时,在发送端和接收端的反馈资源上反馈ACK,接收端接收不正确时,在发送端和接收端的反馈资源上反馈NACK。
可选的,第一预设值或第二预设值为网络设备或第一终端设备配置的。例如,第一预设值或第二预设值是网络设备通过RRC信令配置的。又例如,第一预设值或第二预设值是第一终端设备通过SCI配置的。可以理解的,若RRC信令或SCI中第一预设值或第二预设值为缺省值时,可以表示不需要第二终端设备辅助检测可用资源。
可选的,如果有多个资源池,第一预设值或第二预设值可以是对应资源池配置的。即如果有多个资源池,网络设备或第一终端设备可以针对不同的资源池进行相应的第一预设值或第二预设值的配置。
可选的,第一预设值与CBR关联。示例性的,第一CBR大于第二CBR时,第一CBR对应的第一预设值小于第二CBR对应的第一预设值。
可选的,第二预设值与CBR关联。示例性的,第一CBR大于第二CBR时,第一CBR对应的第二预设值大于第二CBR对应的第二预设值。
可以理解的,第一预设值和第二预设值可以相同也可以不同。
下面分别介绍第一参数和第二参数。其中,第一参数可以为如下情况1至情况4中任一个,第二参数可以为如下情况5或情况6。
情况1:第一参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备测量的信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)测量结果;或者,第一参数为预设时间段内,第二终端设备测量的CSI测量结果,其中,第二终端设备测量的CSI测量结果被第二终端设备反馈给第一终端设备。
其中,CSI测量结果为第一终端设备和第二终端设备之间的CSI的测量结果。CSI测量结果用于指示第一终端设备和第二终端设备之间的信道质量。示例性的,第一CSI测量结果大于第二CSI测量结果,第一CSI测量结果指示的信道质量比第二CSI测量结果指示的信道质量好。
情况2:第一参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备基于第二终端设备发送的参考信号测量的RSRP;或者,第一参数为预设时间段内,第二终端设备基于第一终端设备发送的参考信号测量的RSRP。
其中,RSRP可以反映第一终端设备与第二终端设备的信道质量。示例性的,第一RSRP大于第二RSRP,第一RSRP对应的信道质量比第二RSRP对应的信道质量好。
情况3:第一参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备基于第二终端设备发送的信号测量的RSSI;或者,第一参数为预设时间段内,第二终端设备基于第一终端设备发送的信号测量的RSSI。
其中,RSSI可以反映第一终端设备与第二终端设备的信道质量。示例性的,第一RSSI大于第二RSSI,第一RSSI对应的信道质量比第二RSSI对应的信道质量好。
情况4:第一参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备基于第二终端设备发送的参考信号测量的参考信号接收质量(reference signal received quality,RSRQ);或者,第一参数为预设时间段内,第二终端设备基于第一终端设备发送的参考信号测量的RSRQ。
其中,RSRQ可以反映第一终端设备与第二终端设备的信道质量。示例性的,第一RSRQ 大于第二RSRQ,第一RSRQ对应的信道质量比第二RSRQ对应的信道质量好。
情况5:第二参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的反馈信息中ACK所占的百分比;或者,第二参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的反馈信息中ACK所占的百分比。
其中,该反馈信息可以是基于上述第二种反馈方式发送的反馈信息。ACK所占的百分比可以反映第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的信道质量。ACK所占的百分比1大于ACK所占的百分比2,ACK所占的百分比1对应的信道质量比ACK所占的百分比2对应的信道质量好。
情况6:第二参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备向第一组播组的终端设备发送的反馈信息中NACK所占的百分比;或者,第二参数为预设时间段内,第一终端设备接收来自第一组播组的终端设备的反馈信息中NACK所占的百分比。
其中,该反馈信息可以是基于上述第一种反馈方式发送的反馈信息。NACK所占的百分比可以反映第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的信道质量。示例性的,NACK所占的百分比1大于NACK所占的百分比2,NACK所占的百分比2对应的信道质量比NACK所占的百分比1对应的信道质量好。
需要说明的是,上述情况1至情况6中的预设时间段可以相同也可以不同。
可以理解的,通过上述实现方式中所述的方法,可以选择出通信质量较好的终端设备作为第二终端设备,这样第二终端设备检测出的可用资源更为准确。第一终端设备采用第二终端设备检测出的可用资源传输侧行信息时,通信质量较高。
步骤602,第二终端设备根据索引信息指示的资源选择参数,选择侧行资源。
理解为,第二终端设备选择的侧行资源为用于第一终端设备发送侧行信息的资源,也即,第二终端设备根据索引信息指示的资源选择参数为第一终端设备选择侧行资源。第二终端设备选择的侧行资源又可以称为是辅助资源或可用资源或空闲资源或免于隐藏节点干扰的侧行资源。
第二终端设备根据资源选择参数,选择侧行资源,具体可以为,第二终端设备根据资源选择参数,从资源池中检测或探测并选择资源,并从检测或探测并选择出的资源中为第一终端设备确定侧行资源。也可以理解,第二终端设备为第一终端设备检测或探测并选择的资源为满足资源选择参数的资源。
本申请中,可以将索引信息称为是第一索引信息或参数索引信息。在步骤602中,以索引信息称为是第一索引信息为例说明。第二终端设备确定第一索引信息,根据第一索引信息确定第一索引信息指示的资源选择参数,然后根据第一索引信息指示的资源选择参数从资源池中辅助第一终端设备选择资源。
下面,先对第二终端设备确定第一索引信息说明。
可选的,第一索引信息可承载于第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的SCI或媒体接入控制层的控制单元(medium access control control element,MAC CE)中。
一种实现方式中,第一索引信息承载于第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的SCI中。相应的,第二终端设备接收到该SCI之后,从该SCI中获取第一索引信息,并根据第一索引信息确定资源选择参数,进而根据资源选择参数辅助第一终端设备从资源池中检测资源。
第一索引信息可承载于第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的两级SCI的第一级SCI中,可以将该第一级SCI称之为第一SCI。
第一索引信息也可承载于第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的两级SCI的第二级SCI中,可以将该第二级SCI称之为第二SCI。第二SCI关联于第一SCI,具体的,第一SCI指示第二SCI的格式,或者,第一SCI指示第二SCI中是否携带有第一索引信息,或者,第一SCI指示第二SCI中携带有第一索引信息。
可选的,当第一索引信息承载于第二SCI时,所述第二SCI的格式不同于现有第二SCI的格式。即,第一SCI中指示的第二SCI的格式为新引入的格式。
下面,说明第一索引信息分别承载于第一SCI或第二SCI的实现方式。
一、第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中。
第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的一种实现方式中,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的预留比特位和/或非预留比特位。
非预留比特位可理解为第一SCI中除预留比特位以外的比特位,比如,第一SCI中优先级对应的比特位、频域资源分配对应的比特位、时域资源分配对应的比特位、资源预留周期对应的比特位、调制编码方式表格对应的比特位、或DMRS模式/DMRS图案对应的比特位。
举例1,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的x个预留比特位。可选的,x为2或3。
举例2,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中资源预留周期对应的x个比特位。
需要说明的是,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的非预留比特位,可理解为,第一索引信息复用现有第一级SCI中非预留比特位。进一步的,虽然第一SCI中可能保留现有第一级SCI中某些字段,但这些字段不再指示原有信息,第一SCI也不再用于资源预留。
本申请中,复用也可以理解为占用。
举个例子,第一索引信息复用现有第一级SCI中优先级对应的比特位,则优先级对应的比特位用于指示第一索引信息。进一步的,可以设置其他字段,比如频域资源分配、时域资源分配、资源预留周期等,为无效(invalid)字段。
此说明同样适用于下述第一SCI中第一索引信息复用现有第一级SCI中非预留比特位,或第二SCI中第一索引信息复用现有第二级SCI中非预留比特位的实施例中。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备在接收到来自第一终端设备的第一SCI时,可以从第一SCI中获得第一索引信息,并根据第一索引信息确定资源选择参数,进而根据资源选择参数辅助第一终端设备从资源池中检测资源。
第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的另一种实现方式中,第一SCI中包括第一索引信息和第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示第一SCI中包括第一索引信息。
在第一种可选设计中,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的非预留比特位,第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的预留比特位。第二终端设备从预留比特位中解析出第一指示信息时,也即第二终端设备解析出预留比特位的含义为指示辅助资源选择时,第二终端设备可以从对应的非预留比特位解析出第一索引信息。在该设计中,将第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的预留比特位,对第一SCI的其余字段可以实现最小化修改。
比如,第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的1个预留比特位,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中资源预留周期对应的x个比特位。
可选的,第一指示信息可以是取值为1或0。第一种可选设计中,第一指示信息取值为1,指示第一SCI中承载有第一索引信息;第一指示信息取值为0,指示第一SCI中未承载有第一索引信息。第二种可选设计中,第一指示信息取值为0,指示第一SCI中承载 有第一索引信息;第一指示信息取值为1,指示第一SCI中未承载有第一索引信息。
在第二种可选设计中,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的预留比特位,第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的非预留比特位。第二终端设备从非预留比特位中解析出第一指示信息时,也即第二终端设备解析出非预留比特位的含义为指示辅助资源选择时,第二终端设备可以从对应的预留比特位解析出第一索引信息。
例如,第一索引信息承载于第一SCI中的x个预留比特位。第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中格式字段对应的1个比特位,也即,第一指示信息复用第一SCI中第二SCI级格式字段(以下简称格式字段)。当第一SCI中格式字段不同于现有的格式字段时,可以确定该第一SCI用于指示辅助资源选择。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI时,可以根据第一指示信息从第一SCI中获得第一索引信息。具体的,第二终端设备若确定第一指示信息指示第一SCI中承载有第一索引信息,则从第一SCI中获得第一索引信息;并根据第一索引信息确定资源选择参数,进而根据资源选择参数辅助第一终端设备从资源池中检测资源。
第一终端设备将第一索引信息承载于第一SCI(第一级SCI)中,可以在没有第二级SCI,只有第一级SCI的情形中,向第二终端设备有效传递第一索引信息,指示第二终端设备基于第一索引信息对应的资源选择参数,辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
二、第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中。
本申请中,第二SCI与第一SCI相关联,第一SCI指示第二SCI。具体的,第一SCI指示第二SCI的格式,或者,第一SCI指示第二SCI中是否携带有第一索引信息,或者,第一SCI指示第二SCI中携带有第一索引信息。
第一SCI可以分以下至少两种方式指示第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中。
指示方式一,第一SCI中第一指示信息指示第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中。
第一SCI中包括第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示第二SCI中包括第一索引信息。具体的,第一SCI中第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的预留比特位,第二SCI中第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中预留比特位和/或非预留比特位。
示例性的,第一指示信息承载于第一SCI中的1个预留比特位,第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中HARQ进程标识对应的比特位、新传指示对应的比特位、冗余版本对应的比特位、源ID对应的比特位、目标ID对应的比特位、CSI请求对应的比特位中任一个或多个。
可选的,第一指示信息可以是取值为1或0。第一种可选设计中,第一指示信息取值为1,指示第二SCI中承载有第一索引信息;第一指示信息取值为0,指示第二SCI中未承载有第一索引信息。第二种可选设计中,第一指示信息取值为0,指示第二SCI中承载有第一索引信息;第一指示信息取值为1,指示第二SCI中未承载有第一索引信息。
第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,可以根据第一指示信息确定第二SCI中承载有第一索引信息,然后接收第二SCI,从第二SCI中获得第一索引信息。具体的,第二终端设备若确定第一指示信息指示第二SCI中承载有第一索引信息,则接收第二SCI,并从第二SCI中获得第一索引信息;第二终端设备根据第一索引信息确定资源选择参数,进而根据资源选择参数辅助第一终端设备从资源池中检测资源。
指示方式二,第一SCI中格式字段指示第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中。
第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI采用第一格式和/或第二格式,分别如下述说明。
第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第一格式,可以有三种可选设计。
在第一种可选设计中,第一格式的第二SCI中新增第一索引信息,该第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中预留比特位。相应的,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,若确定第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第一格式,则接收第二SCI,从第二SCI中预留比特位获得第一索引信息。
在第二种可选设计中,第一格式的第二SCI中新增第一索引信息和第二终端设备的标识,该第一索引信息和第二终端设备的标识均承载于第二SCI中预留比特位。相应的,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,若确定第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第一格式,且第二终端设备确定接收的第二SCI中预留比特位包括第二终端设备的标识,则从第二SCI中预留比特位获得第一索引信息。
在第三种可选设计中,第一格式的第二SCI中新增第一索引信息、第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识,该第一索引信息、第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识均承载于第二SCI中预留比特位。相应的,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,若确定第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第一格式,且第二终端设备确定接收的第二SCI中预留比特位包括第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识,则从第二SCI中预留比特位获得第一索引信息。
需要说明的是,本申请中提到的标识可以是针对业务而言的,也可以是针对发送业务的终端设备而言的,还可以是既针对发送业务的终端设备,又针对业务而言的。
在常规技术中,当第一终端设备发送控制信息时,目的标识指的是,对于第一终端设备来说所传输的数据/业务相应的目的标识;源标识指的是与第一终端设备相关的标识,或者与第一终端设备的业务相关的标识。
本申请中,在第一终端设备发送的控制信息或MAC CE中,第一终端设备的标识为源标识,第二终端设备的标识为目的标识。在第二终端设备发送的控制信息或MAC CE中,第一终端设备的标识为目的标识,第二终端设备的标识为源标识。本申请中的目的标识为新引入的目的标识。本申请中的源标识为新引入的源标识。
在本申请中,第一终端设备发送控制信息或MAC CE时,新引入的目的标识为反馈辅助资源的终端设备的标识。例如,第一终端设备发送控制信息给第二终端,目的标识可以是第二终端设备相关的标识。例如,目的标识可以是第二终端设备的标识相关联的标识;目的标识可以是发给第二终端设备的业务相关联的标识;或者,目的标识可以是与第二终端设备的标识相关联的标识和发给第二终端设备的业务相关联的标识。相应地,当第一终端设备发送控制信息时,源标识指的是,与第一终端设备的标识相关联的标识,与第一终端设备所发送的业务相关联的标识,或者,与第一终端设备的标识相关联的标识和第一终端设备所发送的业务相关联的标识。
本申请中,新引入的源标识指的是,触发反馈辅助资源的源标识,或者请求反馈辅助资源的源标识,或者指示反馈辅助资源的源标识。可选的,新引入的源标识可以复用目前现有的源标识,或者可以是在现有的源标识基础上的扩展(具体扩展如下)。
本申请中,所传输的数据为泛指,即所传输的数据可以理解为所传输的信息。该信息可以为请求反馈信息,也可以为反馈信息。本申请中,辅助资源可以理解为可用资源。
需要说明的是,相比于常规技术中SCI 2-a或SCI 2-b中所包含的源标识,控制信息或MAC CE所包含的源标识可以包含更多的比特位。这样能更加准确地标识该通信源,从而在进行反馈时能更加准确地标识目的终端。同理,相比于常规技术中SCI 2-a或SCI 2-b中 所包含的目的标识,控制信息所包含的反馈可用资源的终端的标识可以包含更多的比特位。这样能更加准确地标识该通信目的终端。
示例性的,以常规技术中源标识包含8比特位为例,控制信息所包含的源标识包含的比特位可以扩展到12或16。
示例性的,以常规技术中的目的标识包含16比特位为例,控制信息所包含的反馈可用资源的终端的标识包含的比特位可以扩展到20或24。
基于对上述标识的说明,在第三种可选设计中,新增第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识,是为了指示第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。解释为,第一终端设备需要向第三终端设备发送侧行信息,但是指示第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源,则会在第二SCI中携带两组标识:第一组标识为第一终端设备(发送侧的终端设备)的标识和第三终端设备(接收侧的终端设备)的标识,用于指示进行侧行传输的终端设备对。第二组标识为第一终端设备(主终端设备)的标识和第三终端设备(辅助终端设备)的标识,用于指示资源检测的终端设备对。
进一步的,又因为两组标识中都有第一终端设备的标识,则在第二种可选设计中,第二SCI只新增第二终端设备的标识和第一索引信息,也可以实现指示第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第二格式,第二格式的第二SCI由第一终端设备的标识、第二终端设备的标识和第一索引信息组成。
相应的,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,若确定第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第二格式,且第二终端设备确定接收的第二SCI中包括第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识,则从第二SCI中获得第一索引信息。
或者说,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI之后,若确定第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI为第二格式,且第二终端设备根据第二SCI中所包含的第一终端设备的标识获知触发辅助资源选择的终端,以及根据第二SCI中所包含的第二终端设备的标识获知被触发进行辅助资源选择的终端。进而第二终端设备从第二SCI中获得第一索引信息。
应理解,本申请实施例中,第一SCI中格式字段指示第二SCI采用的第一格式和/或第二格式,实质上是新定义的第二级SCI的格式。也即,第二SCI实质上是新定义格式的第二级SCI。
新定义第二级SCI的第一格式中,相比于原有的第二级SCI,新增第一索引信息,或新增第一索引信息和第二终端设备的标识,或新增第一索引信息、第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识。本申请实施例中,具有新定义格式的第二级SCI可以表示为SCI 2-c。
新定义第二级SCI的第二格式中,将原有第二级SCI中所有字段删除,重新定义的第二级SCI由第一索引信息、第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识组成。进一步的,可以将新定义的第二级SCI称为是第三级SCI,该第三级SCI由第一级SCI指示。本申请实施例中,具有新定义格式的第二级SCI可以表示为SCI 2-d。
由于第二级SCI位于PSSCH,有助于降低对负载的要求。进一步的,第二终端设备在接收到第一SCI后,可以根据第一SCI的格式字段确定第二SCI所采用的格式,然后确定第二SCI中是否存在第一索引信息,以及第一索引信息承载于第二SCI中的哪些比特位,从而第二终端设备可以快速获得第一索引信息。
在步骤602中,第一索引信息指示资源选择参数,可以有如下理解:第一索引信息对 应资源选择参数,或第一索引信息对应第一终端设备的资源选择参数,或第一终端设备的第一索引信息对应第一终端设备的资源选择参数。“对应”可以替换成“关联于”。
可选的,资源选择参数包括资源预留周期、优先级、初始阈值、阈值提升次数、最大阈值、资源检测相关时长、数据量、包时延预算中至少一项或多项。
示例性的,资源选择参数为一个参数,比如优先级,或资源预留周期,或初始阈值等。或者,资源选择参数为两个参数,比如优先级和资源预留周期,或资源预留周期和初始阈值,或优先级和初始阈值等。或者,资源选择参数为三个参数,比如优先级、资源预留周期和初始阈值,或优先级、初始阈值和阈值提升次数。或者,资源选择参数为其他数量的参数,此处不再赘述。
第二终端设备在确定第一索引信息之后,可以基于第一索引信息确定第一索引信息指示的资源选择参数。
一种可选设计中,第一终端设备和第二终端设备中均配置有配置信息,该配置信息中包括M1个对应关系,每个对应关系为索引信息和资源选择参数的对应关系。资源选择参数可以包括以下参数中的一项或多项的组合:资源预留周期、优先级、初始阈值、阈值提升次数、资源检测相关时长、最大阈值、数据量、包时延预算中至少一项或多项。具体的,若资源选择参数包括上述中的1个参数,配置信息包括M1个索引信息和M1个资源选择参数的一一对应关系;若资源选择参数包括多个参数的组合,配置信息中包括M1个索引信息和M1组资源选择参数的一一对应关系,M1为正整数。第一索引信息是M1个索引信息中的一个。
在步骤602中,可以将该配置信息称为是第一配置信息,或参数配置信息。以配置信息称为是第一配置信息为例说明。
示例性,如图7为本申请提供的一种索引信息与资源选择参数的对应关系的示意图,索引信息1对应的资源选择参数为“优先级1、资源预留周期1ms、子载波数5”;索引信息2对应的资源选择参数为“优先级3、资源预留周期5ms、子载波数3”等。
第一终端设备在需要检测资源时,将第一索引信息发送至第二终端设备。相应的,第二终端设备在接收到第一索引信息之后,确定第一配置信息,并根据第一索引信息和第一配置信息中M1个对应关系,确定与第一索引信息对应的资源选择参数。
结合如图7举例,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送索引信息1,第二终端设备在接收到索引信息1之后,确定第一配置信息,第一配置信息中包括如图7所示的M1个对应关系,第二终端设备根据索引信息1和M1个对应关系,确定索引信息1对应的资源选择参数为“优先级1、资源预留周期1ms、子载波数5”。
本申请实施例中,第一配置信息可以是协议规定的,或者是由网络设备配置的。
当第一配置信息是由网络设备配置时,一种可选实现方式中,网络设备将第一配置信息分别发送至第一终端设备和第二终端设备,相应的,第一终端设备接收来自网络设备的第一配置信息,确定M1个对应关系;第二终端设备接收来自网络设备的第一配置信息,确定M1个对应关系。
本申请实施例中,网络设备在向第一终端设备和第二终端设备发送第一配置信息时,可以是资源池粒度,或者是侧行链路粒度。具体有如下两种示例:
在第一种示例中,网络设备记录有当前所有资源池,以及每个资源池关联的终端设备。网络设备可以针对每个资源池,确定该资源池对应的配置信息,并将该资源池对应的配置 信息配置于该资源池所关联的终端设备。网络设备基于每个资源池确定配置信息,具有针对性。
具体实现中,网络设备将第一终端设备和第二终端设备所在资源池的资源池标识记录在该资源池对应的第一配置信息中,也可以说,第一配置信息中的资源池标识关联于第一配置信息中M1个对应关系,也即关联于第一索引信息与资源选择参数的对应关系,或者说,第一配置信息中索引信息与资源选择参数的对应关系关联于第一配置信息中资源池标识对应的资源池。可以理解为第一配置信息中索引信息与资源选择参数的对应关系应用于该资源池标识对应的资源池。
网络设备将第一配置信息分别发送至第一终端设备和第二终端设备,相应的,第一终端设备和第二终端设备分别根据该第一配置信息确定M1个对应关系。具体的,网络设备针对资源池中所有终端设备发送第一配置信息,从而该资源池中所有终端设备接收第一配置信息,并根据该第一配置信息确定M1个对应关系。或者,网络设备广播该第一配置信息,资源池中终端设备在接收到该第一配置信息后,确定第一配置信息中资源池标识与自身所在资源池的资源池标识一致,则根据该第一配置信息确定M1个对应关系。
在第二种示例中,网络设备可以针对与网络设备连接的所有终端设备配置该第一配置信息。具体实现中,网络设备将第一配置信息发送至与网络设备连接的所有终端设备,相应的,各终端设备接收第一配置信息,并根据该第一配置信息确定M1个对应关系。
示例性的,该第一配置信息可以是网络设备通过RRC信令、MAC层信令(例如,MAC CE)、物理层信令(例如,DCI或PDCCH)中的任一种或任多种配置/指示/发送的。
示例性的,步骤602的一种具体实现方式中,第一索引信息指示的资源选择参数中包括初始阈值、阈值提升次数、优先级、资源预留周期。第二终端设备根据资源选择参数选择侧行资源具体可以为,第二终端设备针对资源池中任一个资源,若资源选择参数中优先级大于已占用该资源的终端设备的优先级,且资源选择参数中初始阈值大于该资源上当前的信号强度值,则将该资源确定为可用资源,否则,将该资源确定为不可用资源。进一步的,第二终端设备还可以根据资源选择参数中资源预留周期从资源池中选择具有周期性的资源,比如,检测出以上述资源预留周期为周期的资源,每个资源预留周期中有N个资源。
可选的,第二终端设备根据优先级和初始阈值检测资源,若检测出的可用资源的比例小于或等于预设比例,则可以对初始阈值提升预设偏移量,得到提升后的阈值。第二终端设备再根据优先级和提升后的阈值,在资源池中检测资源,直至检测出的可用资源的比例大于预设比例。此处,第二终端设备提升阈值的提升次数不大于资源选择参数中阈值提升次数,若第二终端设备提升阈值的提升次数达到阈值提升次数时,仍不能检测出大于预设比例的可用资源,则第二终端设备确定资源检测失败。
此外,步骤602中第二终端设备根据第一索引信息指示的资源选择参数,选择侧行资源,具体也可参照现有技术中终端设备基于资源预留周期、优先级、初始阈值、阈值提升次数、资源检测相关时长、数据量、最大阈值、包时延预算中至少一项或多项,从资源池中检测资源的实现方式。此处不再赘述。
此外,第二终端设备还可以确定当前CBR或者信道占用率(channel utilization ratio,CR),该当前CBR或当前CR作为第二终端设备确定是否辅助检测资源的条件。
示例性的,当第二终端设备接收来自第一终端设备的第一索引信息时,确定当前CBR是否小于或等于CBR阈值,若是,则辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源;否则,不 辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
示例性的,当第二终端设备接收来自第一终端设备的第一索引信息时,确定当前CR是否小于或等于CR阈值,若是,则辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源;否则,不辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
通过CBR或CR判断资源池中资源的使用情况,避免在资源拥塞情况下,因第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备检测资源产生信令交互,进一步影响通信性能。
步骤603,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送资源指示信息。
相应的,第一终端设备接收来自所述第二终端设备的资源指示信息。
第二终端设备选择的侧行资源可用于第一终端设备发送侧行信息,该侧行信息包括侧行控制信息和/或侧行数据信息。第二终端设备可以确定用于指示侧行资源的资源指示信息,并将该资源指示信息发送至第一终端设备。
在步骤603中,第二终端设备将资源指示信息发送至第一终端设备时,资源指示信息可承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的MAC CE中,或承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的SCI中。
可选的,资源指示信息承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的MAC CE时,该MAC CE可以是在SCI调度的PSSCH中承载。
可选的,资源指示信息承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的SCI时,资源指示信息可以承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的两级SCI的第一级SCI中,可以将该第一级SCI称之为第三SCI。
资源指示信息也可以承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的两级SCI的第二级SCI中,可以将该第二级SCI称之为第四SCI,第四SCI关联于第三SCI,具体的,第三SCI指示第四SCI的格式,或者,第三SCI指示第四SCI中是否携带有资源指示信息,或者,第三SCI指示第四SCI中携带有资源指示信息。
下面,说明资源指示信息承载于第三SCI或第四SCI的实现方式。
一、资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中。
资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的一种实现方式中,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的非预留比特位。非预留比特位可理解为第三SCI中除预留比特位以外的比特位,比如,第三SCI中优先级对应的比特位、频域资源分配对应的比特位、时域资源分配对应的比特位、资源预留周期对应的比特位、调制编码方式表格对应的比特位、或DMRS模式/DMRS图案对应的比特位。
一种可选实现方式中,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的用于资源分配的字段。具体的,频域资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中时域资源分配对应的比特位,时域资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中频域资源分配对应的比特位;或者,频域资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中频域资源分配对应的比特位,时域资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中时域资源分配对应的比特位;或者,频域资源指示信息和时域资源指示信息均承载于第三SCI中时域资源分配对应的比特位;或者,频域资源指示信息和时域资源指示信息均承载于第三SCI中频域资源分配对应的比特位。
需要说明的是,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的非预留比特位,可理解为,资源指示信息复用现有第一级SCI中非预留比特位。进一步的,虽然第三SCI中可能保留现有第一级SCI中某些字段,但这些字段不再指示原有信息,第三SCI也不再用于资源预留。
此说明同样适用于下述第三SCI中资源指示信息复用现有第一级SCI中非预留比特位,第四SCI中资源指示信息复用现有第二SCI级中非预留比特位的实施例。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在接收到来自第二终端设备的第三SCI时,可以从第三SCI中获得资源指示信息,并根据资源指示信息选择侧行资源,进而根据侧行资源发送侧行信息。
资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的另一种实现方式中,第三SCI中包括资源指示信息和第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示第三SCI中包括资源指示信息。
在第一种可选设计中,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的非预留比特位,第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的预留比特位。第一终端设备从预留比特位中解析出第二指示信息时,也即第一终端设备解析出预留比特位的含义为指示侧行资源时,第二终端设备可以从对应的非预留比特位解析出资源指示信息。在该设计中,将第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的预留比特位,对第三SCI的其余字段可以实现最小化修改。
比如,第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的1个预留比特位,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中资源预留周期对应的x个比特位。
可选的,第二指示信息可以是取值为1或0。第一种可选设计中,第二指示信息取值为1,指示第三SCI中承载有资源指示信息;第二指示信息取值为0,指示第三SCI中未承载有资源指示信息。第二种可选设计中,第二指示信息取值为0,指示第三SCI中承载有资源指示信息;第二指示信息取值为1,指示第三SCI中未承载有资源指示信息。
第一终端设备在接收到第三SCI时,可以根据第二指示信息从第三SCI中获得资源指示信息。具体的,第一终端设备若确定第二指示信息指示第三SCI中承载有资源指示信息,则从第三SCI中非预留比特位获得资源指示信息;第一终端设备根据资源指示信息选择侧行资源,进而根据侧行资源发送侧行信息。
在第二种可选设计中,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的预留比特位,第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的非预留比特位。第一终端设备从非预留比特位中解析出第二指示信息时,也即第一终端设备解析出非预留比特位的含义为指示侧行资源时,第一终端设备可以从对应的预留比特位解析出资源指示信息。
例如,资源指示信息承载于第三SCI中的x个预留比特位。第二指示信息承载于第一SCI中格式字段对应的1个比特位,也即,第二指示信息复用第三SCI中格式字段。当第三SCI中格式字段不同于现有格式字段时,可以确定该第三SCI用于指示侧行资源。
第二终端设备将资源指示信息承载于第三SCI(第一级SCI)中,可以在没有第二级SCI,只有第一级SCI的情形中,向第一终端设备有效传递资源指示信息,指示第一终端设备基于资源指示信息选择侧行资源。
二、资源指示信息承载于第四SCI中。
本申请中,第四SCI与第三SCI相关联,第三SCI指示第四SCI。具体的,第三SCI指示第四SCI的格式,或者,第三SCI指示第四SCI中是否携带有资源指示信息,或者,第三SCI指示第四SCI中携带有资源指示信息。
第三SCI可以分以下至少两种方式指示资源指示信息承载于第四SCI中。
指示方式一,第三SCI中第二指示信息指示资源指示信息承载于第四SCI中。
第三SCI中包括第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示第四SCI中包括资源指示信息。具体的,第三SCI中第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的预留比特位,第四SCI中资源指示 信息承载于第四SCI中预留比特位和/或非预留比特位。
示例性的,第二指示信息承载于第三SCI中的1个预留比特位,资源指示信息承载于第四SCI中HARQ进程标识对应的比特位、新传指示对应的比特位、冗余版本对应的比特位、源ID对应的比特位、目标ID对应的比特位、CSI请求对应的比特位中任一个或多个。
可选的,第二指示信息可以是取值为1或0。第一种可选设计中,第二指示信息取值为1,指示第四SCI中承载有资源指示信息;第二指示信息取值为0,指示第四SCI中未承载有资源指示信息。第二种可选设计中,第二指示信息取值为0,指示第四SCI中承载有资源指示信息;第二指示信息取值为1,指示第四SCI中未承载有资源指示信息。
第二终端设备在接收到第三SCI之后,可以根据第二指示信息确定第四SCI中承载有资源指示信息,然后接收第四SCI,从第四SCI中获得资源指示信息。具体的,第一终端设备若确定第二指示信息指示第四SCI中承载有资源指示信息,则接收第四SCI,并从第四SCI中获得资源指示信息;第一终端设备根据资源指示信息选择侧行资源,进而根据侧行资源发送侧行信息。
指示方式二,第三SCI中格式字段指示资源指示信息承载于第四SCI中。
第三SCI中格式字段指示第四SCI采用第三格式,第三格式的第四SCI由第一终端设备的标识、第二终端设备的标识和资源指示信息组成。
相应的,第一终端设备在接收到第三SCI之后,若确定第三SCI中格式字段指示第四SCI为第三格式,且第一终端设备确定接收的第四SCI中包括第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识,则从第四SCI中获得资源指示信息。或者说,第一终端设备在接收到第三SCI之后,若确定第三SCI中格式字段指示第四SCI为第三格式,且根据第四SCI中所包含的第二终端设备的标识获知被触发进行辅助资源选择并反馈的终端,以及根据第四SCI中所包含的第一终端设备的标识获知触发进行辅助资源选择的终端。进而,第一终端设备从第四SCI中获得资源指示信息。
应理解,本申请实施例中,第三SCI中格式字段指示第四SCI采用的第三格式,实质上是新定义的第二级SCI的格式。也即,第四SCI实质上是新定义格式的第二级SCI。
新定义第二级SCI的第三格式中,将原有第二级SCI中所有字段删除,重新定义的第二级SCI由资源指示信息、第一终端设备的标识和第二终端设备的标识组成。进一步的,可以将新定义的第二级SCI称为是第四级SCI,该第四级SCI由第一级SCI指示。
或者,可以将新定义的第二级SCI称为是具有新定义格式的第二级SCI,该第二级SCI与第一级SCI相关联,且由第一级SCI中格式字段指示。具有新定义格式的第二级SCI可以表示为SCI 2-e。
本申请实施例中,由于第二级SCI位于PSSCH,有助于降低对负载的要求。
在步骤601至步骤603中,可以将承载有索引信息的SCI称为是触发SCI,该触发SCI用于触发第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。可以将承载有资源指示信息的SCI称为是反馈SCI或辅助SCI,该反馈SCI或辅助SCI用于指示第二终端设备在资源池中检测到的资源,也即用于指示第一终端设备发送侧行信息的侧行资源。
步骤604,第一终端设备通过侧行资源发送侧行信息。
第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的资源指示信息之后,可以根据资源指示信息选择侧行资源,并通过侧行资源发送侧行信息。侧行信息可以为侧行数据信息和/或侧行控制信息。
此处,第一终端设备根据资源指示信息选择侧行资源时,第一终端设备所选择的侧行资源可以是部分与资源指示信息所指示的侧行资源相同,或者是全部与资源指示信息所指示的侧行资源相同。
本申请实施例中,通过第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备从资源池中检测资源,避免隐藏节点问题,有助于提升检测出可用资源的准确率。进一步的,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送索引信息,第二终端设备根据索引信息指示的资源选择参数,从资源池中选择侧行资源,通过索引信息来指示资源选择参数,资源选择参数可以包括一个或多个参数,有助于减少通知资源选择参数的信令开销。
本申请实施例还提供一种通信方法,具体可参照如图8示出的流程图。
步骤801,第二终端设备确定至少一个资源集合。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备可以主动触发检测,即第二终端设备主动在资源池中检测出至少一个资源集合。其中,主动触发检测可以是基于来自网络设备的使能信息,该使能信息用于使能第二终端设备为第一终端设备确定至少一个资源集合。本申请中,使能信息也可以称之为触发信息,或激活信息。去使能信息也可以称之为去激活信息。
在第一种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于优先级和阈值,从资源池中确定与优先级和阈值相关联的资源集合。示例性的,第二终端设备基于第一优先级和第一阈值,从资源池中确定与第一优先级和第一阈值相关联的第一资源集合,其中,对于第一资源集合中包括的任一个资源,其它终端设备在该资源上的优先级低于第一优先级,且该资源上的信号强度值小于或等于第一阈值。换言之,对于资源池中任一个资源,第二终端设备若确定其它终端设备在该资源上的优先级低于第一优先级,且该资源上的信号强度值小于或等于第一阈值,则将该资源确定为第一资源集合中的资源。
在第二种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于优先级,从资源池中确定与优先级相关联的资源集合。示例性的,第二终端设备基于第一优先级,从资源池中确定与第一优先级相关联的第一资源集合,其中,对于第一资源集合中包括的任一个资源,其它终端设备在该资源上的优先级低于第一优先级。换言之,对于资源池中任一个资源,第二终端设备若确定其它终端设备在该资源上的优先级低于第一优先级,则将该资源确定为第一资源集合中的资源。
在第三种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于阈值,从资源池中确定与阈值相关联的资源集合。示例性的,第二终端设备基于第一阈值,从资源池中确定与第一阈值相关联的第一资源集合,其中,对于第一资源集合中包括的任一个资源,该资源上的信号强度值小于或等于第一阈值。换言之,对于资源池中任一个资源,第二终端设备若确定该资源上的信号强度值小于或等于第一阈值,则将该资源确定为第一资源集合中的资源。
本申请中,第二终端设备可以是基于一一对应的K个优先级和K个阈值,或K个优先级,或K个阈值,从资源池中确定K个资源集合,其中,K为正整数。
具体的,在第一种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于K个优先级和K个阈值,从资源池中确定K个资源集合。其中,第k个优先级高于第k+1个优先级,且第k个阈值低于第k+1个阈值,k为正整数且小于K。第二终端设备先确定与第1个优先级和第1个阈值相关联的第1个资源集合,然后确定与第2个优先级和第2个阈值相关联的第2个资源集合,……,确定与第K个优先级和第K个阈值相关联的第K个资源集合,最后得到K个资源集合。
在第二种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于K个优先级,从资源池中确定K个资源集合。其中,第k个优先级高于第k+1个优先级,k为正整数且小于K。第二终端设备先确定与第1个优先级相关联的第1个资源集合,然后确定与第2个优先级相关联的第2个资源集合,……,确定与第K个优先级相关联的第K个资源集合,最后得到K个资源集合。
在第三种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以是基于K个阈值,从资源池中确定K个资源集合。其中,第k个阈值低于第k+1个阈值,k为正整数且小于K。第二终端设备先确定与第1个阈值相关联的第1个资源集合,然后确定与第2个阈值相关联的第2个资源集合,……,确定与第K个阈值相关联的第K个资源集合,最后得到K个资源集合。
基于此,第k个资源集合中资源的受干扰程度小于第k+1个资源集合中资源的受干扰程度,也即,第k个资源集合中资源优于第k+1个资源集合中资源。相应的,第一终端设备可以先从第k个资源集合中选择侧行资源,然后再从第k+1个资源集合选择侧行资源。也可以理解为,第k个资源集合的使用优先级高于第k+1个资源集合的使用优先级。
示例性的,K为2,第二终端设备先基于第二优先级和第二阈值确定第二资源集合,再基于第三优先级和第三阈值确定第三资源集合。其中,第二优先级高于第三优先级,且第二阈值低于第三阈值。
示例性的,K为2,第二终端设备先基于第二优先级确定第二资源集合,再基于第三优先级确定第三资源集合。其中,第二优先级高于第三优先级。
示例性的,K为2,第二终端设备先基于第二阈值确定第二资源集合,再基于第三阈值确定第三资源集合。其中,第二阈值低于第三阈值。
第二资源集合中资源的受干扰程度小于第三资源集合中资源的受干扰程度,也即第二资源集合中资源优于第三资源集合中资源。本申请实施例中,可以将第二资源集合称为是优先可用的资源集合,将第三资源集合称为是增补可用的资源集合,也即,第一终端设备可以先从第二资源集合中选择侧行资源,然后再从第三资源集合选择侧行资源。也可以理解为,第二个资源集合的使用优先级高于第三个资源集合的使用优先级。
由此可知,第二终端设备确定出的至少一个资源集合中,每个资源集合均对应有优先级和/或阈值,其中,资源集合对应的优先级是第二终设备确定该资源集合的参考优先级,资源集合对应的阈值是第二终设备确定该资源集合的参考阈值。
此外,资源集合对应的优先级和/或阈值可以是由信令配置的。该信令可以是来自网络设备的RRC信令或MAC信令;也可以是来自第一终端设备的PC5RRC信令。
第一个示例中,第二终端设备可以接收来自网络设备或第一终端设备的信令,该信令中包括至少一个资源集合对应的优先级和/或阈值,相应的,第二终端设备可以基于每个资源集合对应的优先级和/或阈值,从资源池中确定该资源集合。
第二个示例中,第二终端设备可以接收来自网络设备或第一终端设备的信令,该信令中包括初始优先级和/或初始阈值,相应的,第二终端设备执行如下:
第一步,第二终端设备基于初始优先级和/或初始阈值,从资源池中确定初始优先级和/或初始阈值对应的资源集合。
第二步,第二终端设备根据预设规则调整初始优先级和/或初始阈值,得到第一次调整后的优先级和/或阈值,进而基于第一次调整后的优先级和/或阈值,从资源池中确定第一次调整后的优先级和/或阈值对应的资源集合。
第三步,第二终端设备根据预设规则调整第一次调整后的优先级和/或阈值,得到第二次调整后的优先级和/或阈值,进而基于第二次调整后的优先级和/或阈值,从资源池中确定第二次调整后的优先级和/或阈值对应的资源集合。
第四步,以此类推,确定出K个资源集合。
可选的,所述四个步骤也可以是分别独立执行。换言之,第二终端设备根据预设规则将初始优先级和/或初始阈值调整K-1次之后,分别得到每次调整后的优先级和/或阈值。第二终端设备共计有K个优先级和/或K个阈值(包括初始优先级和/或初始阈值),其中,K个优先级和/或K个阈值解释为,K个优先级,或K个阈值,或K对优先级和阈值。第二终端设备分别根据K个优先级和/或K个阈值,得到每个优先级对应的资源集合,或每个阈值对应的资源集合,或每对优先级和阈值对应的资源集合。
在第二个示例中,第二终端设备根据预设规则调整优先级和/或阈值,调整后的优先级低于调整前的优先级,调整后的阈值高于调整前的阈值。
在第二个示例中,第二终端设备从资源池中确定资源集合,理解为,第二终端设备从资源池中确定出的可用资源的比例大于预设比例时,将确定出的可用资源组成资源集合。基于此,当第二终端设备基于优先级和/或阈值在资源池中检测到的可用资源的比例小于或等于预设比例时,第二终端设备需要对阈值提升预设偏移量,得到提升后的阈值,然后根据优先级和/或提升后的阈值,再次从资源池中检测资源。
在第二个示例的一种可选方式中,第二终端设备基于初始优先级和/或初始阈值,在资源池中检测到的可用资源的比例小于或等于预设比例,第二终端设备对初始阈值提升预设偏移量,得到提升后的阈值。其中,提升后的阈值为初始阈值与预设偏移量相加所得的和。
第二终端设备根据提升后的阈值继续进行检测,将资源池中资源的信号强度值与该提升后的阈值进行比较,得到信号强度值小于该提升后的阈值的资源作为可用资源,第二终端设备判断检测到的可用资源的比例是否大于预设比例。
第二终端设备根据预设偏移量循环提升阈值,直到第二终端设备在资源池中检测到的可用资源的比例大于预设比例。第二终端设备基于初始优先级和/或至少一次提升后的阈值,从资源池中确定优先级和/或至少一次提升后的阈值对应的资源集合之后,第二终端设备再根据上述预设规则逐步调整优先级和/或阈值,确定每次调整后的优先级和/或阈值对应的资源集合,直至确定出K个资源集合。
需要说明的是,第二终端设备在根据预设偏移量循环提升阈值时,可以预先设置阈值提升次数,第二终端设备循环提升阈值的次数小于或等于阈值提升次数。或者,第二终端设备在根据预设偏移量循环提升阈值时,可以预先设置最大阈值,第二终端设备提升后的阈值小于或等于最大阈值。也可以理解,最大阈值为初始阈值经过阈值提升次数的提升后所得的值,或者最大阈值大于或等于初始阈值经过阈值提升次数的提升后所得的值。
比如,初始阈值为a,预设偏移量为△a,阈值提升次数为b max,最大阈值为a max,其中,a、△a、b max均为正整数。则有,第二终端设备将初始阈值提升b 1次之后得到的阈值为a+b 1×△a,其中,b 1小于或等于b max,a+b 1×△a小于或等于a max
在第二个示例中,第二终端设备可以接收来自第一终端设备的PC5RRC信令,具体的,第一终端设备将第一终端设备关联的优先级和/或阈值承载于PC5RRC信令,将该PC5RRC信令发送至第二终端设备。相应的,第二终端设备接收PC5RRC信令,将该PC5RRC信令中的第一终端设备关联的优先级作为初始优先级,和/或,第一终端设备关联的阈值作 为初始阈值。第二终端设备基于初始优先级和/或初始阈值,从资源池中确定K个资源集合的步骤具体可参照上述第一步至第四步。
此处,第k个优先级高于第k+1个优先级,相当于,第k个优先级的值低于第k+1个优先级的值,按照预设规则调整优先级,可以是按照预设规则提升优先级值,相应的,优先级降低。第k个阈值低于第k+1个阈值,按照预设规则调整阈值,可以是按照预设规则提升阈值。相应的,第k个优先级和/或阈值对应的第k个的资源集合的使用优先级高于第k+1个优先级和/或阈值对应的第k+1个的资源集合的使用优先级。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备确定的某个资源集合中,可以包括N个资源,或者包括周期性的N个资源,其中,N为正整数。资源集合中包括周期性的N个资源时,具体可参照图3举例,该资源集合中包括多个资源预留周期,每个资源预留周期中包括3个资源。
此外,第二终端设备还可以确定当前CBR或CR,该当前CBR或当前CR作为第二终端设备确定是否主动辅助检测资源的条件。
示例性的,第二终端设备可以先判断当前CBR是否小于或等于CBR阈值,若是,则辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源;否则,不辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
示例性的,第二终端设备可以先判断当前CR是否小于或等于CR阈值,若是,则辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源;否则,不辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测资源。
通过CBR或CR判断资源池中资源的使用情况,避免在资源拥塞情况下,因第二终端设备辅助第一终端设备检测资源产生信令交互,进一步影响通信性能。
步骤802,所述第二终端设备向所述第一终端设备发送资源指示信息。
相应的,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的资源指示信息。
第二终端设备在确定至少一个资源集合之后,确定用于指示该至少一个资源集合的资源指示信息,并将该至少一个资源集合的资源指示信息发送至第一终端设备。
第二终端设备若确定一个资源集合,则第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送用于指示该一个资源集合的资源指示信息。第二终端设备若确定多个资源集合,则第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送用于指示每个资源集合的资源指示信息。
为方便描述,下述实施例以一个资源集合说明。该一个资源集合可以是第二终端设备确定出的一个资源集合,也可以是第二终端设备确定出的多个资源集合中的一个。
可选的,资源集合可以是资源的bitmap表示。其中,bitmap的每一位或每z位可以对应一块资源。一块资源包括频域资源和/或时域资源。示例的,频域资源包括频域起始点或子信道数中至少一个;时域资源包括一个slot(时隙)或者用于指示slot的信息。所述频域资源和/或所述时域资源中任何一项都可以是预定义的,或者RRC信令通知的,或者部分被RRC信令通知,部分被预定义。
可选的,当bitmap的一比特位对应一块资源的可用状态时,表示为1的为可用的或者空闲的;表示为0的为不可用的或者被占用的。可选的,当bitmap的z比特位对应一块资源的可用状态时,z比特位可以为参照某阈值可用的或者参照某阈值空闲的;或者,参照某阈值不可用的或者参照某阈值被占用的。可选的,当bitmap的z比特位对应一块资源的可用状态时,z比特位可以为按照某优先级可用的或者按照某优先级空闲的;或者,按照某优先级不可用的或者按照某优先级被占用的。可选的,当bitmap的z比特位对应一块资源的可用状态时,z比特位可以为上述按照某优先级及某阈值可用的或者按照某优先级及某阈值空闲的;或者,按照某优先级及某阈值不可用的或者某优先级及某阈值被占用的。 其中,z为大于或者等于2的整数。所述按照也可以理解为参照或参考。
可选的,由步骤801可知,资源集合对应有优先级和/或阈值,相应的,第二终端设备可以将资源集合对应有优先级和/或阈值承载于资源指示信息中。也即,资源指示信息还用于指示资源集合对应的优先级和/或阈值,该资源集合对应的优先级和/或阈值可用于第一终端设备在至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源,具体可参照步骤803。
可选的,该阈值为初始阈值,或者确定出该资源集合的阈值。其中,确定出该资源集合的阈值也可以理解为进行阈值提升后的最终使用的阈值。
可选的,由步骤801可知,资源集合对应有阈值提升的次数,相应的,第二终端设备可以将资源集合对应的阈值提升的次数承载于资源指示信息中。也即,资源指示信息还用于指示资源集合对应的阈值提升的次数,该资源集合对应的阈值提升的次数可用于第一终端设备在至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源,具体可参照步骤803。
进一步的,由步骤801可知,每个资源集合对应有使用优先级,资源指示信息还可以指示资源集合的使用优先级。
下面,说明第二终端设备向第一终端设备指示K个资源集合的使用优先级的实现方式。
本实现方式中,第二终端设备确定的K个资源集合按照使用优先级从高到低依次为资源集合1、资源集合2、……、资源集合K,且分别对应资源指示信息1、资源指示信息2、……、资源指示信息K。
在示例性1中,第二终端设备可以隐式指示K个资源集合的使用优先级,具体的,第二终端设备可以将K个资源集合分别对应的K个资源指示信息,按照使用优先级从高到低依次排列。比如,资源指示信息1、资源指示信息2、……、资源指示信息K。
在示例性2中,第二终端设备可以显式指示K个资源集合的使用优先级,具体的,第二终端设备可以将每个资源集合的使用优先级承载于对应的资源指示信息中。比如,在资源指示信息1中承载资源集合1的使用优先级1,在资源指示信息2中承载资源集合2的使用优先级2,……,在资源指示信息K中承载资源集合K的使用优先级K。
本申请实施例中,资源集合包括周期性的N个资源时,资源指示信息还用于指示资源预留周期。相应的,资源集合对应的资源预留周期用于第一终端设备在至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源,具体可参照步骤803。
当资源指示信息还用于指示资源预留周期时,可以是在资源指示信息中包括索引信息。此处,可以将索引信息称为是第二索引信息,或周期索引信息,该索引信息用于指示对应资源集合的资源预留周期。在步骤802中,以索引信息称为是第二索引信息为例说明。
比如,针对K个资源集合中任一个资源集合,该资源集合对应的资源指示信息中包括的第二索引信息,该的第二索引信息用于指示该资源集合的资源预留周期。
第一终端设备在确定资源指示信息中第二索引信息之后,可以基于第二索引信息确定该第二索引信息指示的资源预留周期。
一种可选设计中,第一终端设备和第二终端设备中均配置有配置信息,该配置信息中包括M2个索引信息和M2个资源预留周期的一一对应关系,且第二索引信息是M2个索引信息中的一个,M2为正整数。可以将该配置信息称为是第二配置信息,或周期配置信息。在步骤802中,以配置信息称为是第二配置信息为例说明。
示例性,如图9为本申请提供的一种索引信息与资源预留周期的对应关系的示意图,索引信息1对应的资源预留周期为1ms;索引信息2对应的资源预留周期为10ms等。
第二终端设备确定该资源集合对应的资源预留周期,并将用于指示该资源预留周期的第二索引信息承载于资源指示信息中发送至第一终端设备。相应的,第一终端设备确定第二配置信息,并根据第二索引信息和第二配置信息中M2个对应关系,确定第二索引信息对应的资源预留周期。该资源预留周期为辅助资源选择中的资源预留周期。
结合如图9举例,第二终端设备确定资源集合对应的资源预留周期为10ms,并将用于指示该资源预留周期10ms的索引信息2承载于资源指示信息中发送至第一终端设备。相应的,第一终端设备确定第二配置信息,第二配置信息中包括如图9所示的M2个对应关系,第一终端设备根据索引信息2和M2个对应关系,确定资源预留周期为10ms。
本申请实施例中,第二配置信息可以是协议规定的,或者是由网络设备配置的。
当第二配置信息是由网络设备配置时,一种可选实现方式中,网络设备将第二配置信息分别发送至第一终端设备和第二终端设备,相应的,第一终端设备接收来自网络设备的第二配置信息,确定M2个对应关系;第二终端设备接收来自网络设备的第二配置信息,确定M2个对应关系。
本申请实施例中,网络设备在向第一终端设备和第二终端设备配置第二配置信息时,可以是资源池粒度,或者是侧行链路粒度。具体有如下两种示例:
在第一种示例中,网络设备记录有当前所有资源池,以及每个资源池关联的终端设备。网络设备可以针对每个资源池,确定该资源池对应的配置信息,并将该资源池对应的配置信息配置于该资源池所关联的终端设备。网络设备基于每个资源池确定配置信息,具有针对性。
具体实现中,网络设备将第一终端设备和第二终端设备所在资源池的资源池标识记录在该资源池对应的第二配置信息中,也可以说,第二配置信息中的资源池标识关联于第二配置信息中M2个对应关系,也即关联于第二索引信息与资源预留周期的对应关系,或者说,第二配置信息中索引信息与资源预留周期的对应关系关联于第二配置信息中资源池标识对应的资源池。
网络设备将第二配置信息分别发送至第一终端设备和第二终端设备,相应的,第一终端设备和第二终端设备分别根据该第二配置信息确定M2个对应关系。具体的,网络设备针对资源池中所有终端设备发送第二配置信息,从而该资源池中所有终端设备接收第二配置信息,并根据该第二配置信息确定M2个对应关系。或者,网络设备广播该第二配置信息,资源池中终端设备在接收到该第二配置信息后,确定第二配置信息中资源池标识与自身所在资源池的资源池标识一致,根据该第二配置信息确定M2个对应关系。
在第二种示例中,网络设备可以针对与网络设备连接的所有终端设备配置该第二配置信息。具体实现中,网络设备将第二配置信息发送至与网络设备连接的所有终端设备,相应的,各终端设备接收第二配置信息,并根据该第二配置信息确定M2个对应关系。
示例性的,该第二配置信息可以是网络设备通过RRC信令、MAC层信令(例如,MAC CE)、物理层信令(例如,DCI或PDCCH)中的任一种或任多种配置/指示/发送的。
需要说明的是,现有第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送数据时,通常也会携带资源预留周期。第二配置信息不同于现有资源预留周期所对应的索引值,第二配置信息为针对这种辅助资源选择所专门配置的。第二配置信息中所包含的资源预留周期的粒度可以大于现有资源预留周期的粒度。或者说,第二配置信息中所包含的资源预留周期所对应的索引个数可以小于现有资源预留周期所对应的索引个数。举例来说,第二配置信息中所包含的资 源预留周期的粒度为10ms,比如第二配置信息中所包含的资源预留周期的分别为10ms、20ms、30ms、……、90ms、100ms,且分别对应index1、index2、……、index10共10个索引。现有资源预留周期的粒度为1ms,比如现有资源预留周期分别为1ms、2ms、3ms、……、99ms、100ms,且分别对应index1、index2、……、index100共100个索引。
辅助资源选择不同于预留资源进行侧行链路数据通信,所通知的辅助资源可能被使用,也可能不被使用。第二配置信息中所包含的资源预留周期的粒度大于现有资源预留周期的粒度,有助于减少辅助资源划分的粒度,简化辅助资源的通知。
在步骤802中,第二终端设备将资源指示信息发送至第一终端设备时,资源指示信息可承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的MAC CE中,或承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的SCI中。
资源指示信息承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的SCI中,具体可以是,资源指示信息承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的两级SCI的第一级SCI中,可以将该第一级SCI称之为第五SCI。或,资源指示信息承载于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送的两级SCI的第二级SCI中,可以将该第二级SCI称之为第六SCI,第六SCI关联于第五SCI,第五SCI指示第六SCI的格式等信息。
本申请中,资源指示信息承载于第五SCI的实现方式可以参照上述资源指示信息承载于第三SCI的实现方式,资源指示信息承载于第六SCI的实现方式可以参照上述资源指示信息承载于第四SCI的实现方式,此处不再赘述。
在步骤801至步骤802中,同样可以将承载有资源指示信息的SCI称为是反馈SCI或辅助SCI,该反馈SCI或辅助SCI用于指示第二终端设备主动辅助第一终端设备在资源池中检测到的至少一个资源集合,也即用于第一终端设备选择侧行资源的至少一个资源集合。
步骤803,所述第一终端设备根据所述资源指示信息,从所述至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源。
由于资源指示信息可以指示资源集合的使用优先级,则第一终端设备可以根据至少一个资源集合的使用优先级从高到低的顺序,依次从各资源集合中选择侧行资源。
如上述步骤802的示例性1中,第一终端设备可以在接收到该K个资源指示信息后,根据K个资源指示信息的前后顺序,确定K个资源集合的使用优先级,然后基于使用优先级从高到低的顺序,依次从各资源集合中选择侧行资源。
如上述步骤802的示例性2中,第一终端设备可以在接收到该K个资源指示信息后,从K个资源指示信息中分别获取K个资源集合的使用优先级,然后基于使用优先级从高到低的顺序,依次从各资源集合中选择侧行资源。
结合上述描述,第二终端设备确定第二资源集合和第三资源集合,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第二资源集合的资源指示信息和第三资源集合的资源指示信息,可以有如下三种实现方式。
第1种实现方式中,第二终端设备将第二资源集合的资源指示信息和第三资源集合的资源指示信息从前到后依次排列。相应的,第一终端设备从前一个资源指示信息对应的第二资源集合中选择侧行资源。第一终端设备在确定第二资源集合中资源不足时,从后一个资源指示信息对应的第三资源集合中选择侧行资源。
第2种实现方式中,第二终端设备将第二资源集合的使用优先级承载于第二资源集合的资源指示信息中,以及,将第三资源集合的使用优先级承载于第三资源集合的资源指示 信息中。相应的,第一终端设备获取资源指示信息中的使用优先级,先从使用优先级高的第二资源集合中选择侧行资源。第一终端设备在确定第二资源集合中资源不足时,从使用优先级低的第三资源集合中选择侧行资源。
第3种实现方式中,第二终端设备通过第三指示信息指示资源集合为第二资源集合还是第三资源集合。示例性的,该第三指示信息占用1个比特位,第三指示信息取值为1指示资源集合为第二资源集合,第三指示信息取值为0指示资源集合为第三资源集合。第二终端设备将取值为1的第三指示信息承载于第二资源集合的资源指示信息中,以及将取值为0的第三指示信息承载于第三资源集合的资源指示信息中。相应的,第一终端设备获取资源指示信息中的第三指示信息,先从取值为1的第三指示信息对应的第二资源集合中选择侧行资源。第一终端设备在确定第二资源集合中资源不足时,从取值为0的第三指示信息对应的第三资源集合中选择侧行资源。
本申请中,资源指示信息还用于指示至少一个资源集合的优先级和/或阈值。相应的,第一终端设备可以基于资源指示信息指示的至少一个资源集合的优先级和/或阈值,从至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源。
在第一种实现方式中,第一终端设备可以根据第一终端设备关联的优先级、第一终端设备关联的阈值和资源指示信息指示的至少一个资源集合的优先级和阈值,从至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源。具体的,第一终端设备针对至少一个资源集合中的任一个资源集合,若该资源集合关联的优先级低于第一终端设备关联的优先级,且该资源集合关联的阈值小于第一终端设备关联的阈值,则从该资源集合中选择侧行资源。
在第二种实现方式中,第一终端设备可以根据第一终端设备关联的优先级和资源指示信息指示的至少一个资源集合的优先级,从至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源。具体的,第一终端设备针对至少一个资源集合中的任一个资源集合,若该资源集合关联的优先级低于第一终端设备关联的优先级,则从该资源集合中选择侧行资源。
在第三种实现方式中,第一终端设备可以根据第一终端设备关联的阈值和资源指示信息指示的至少一个资源集合的阈值,从至少一个资源集合中选择侧行资源。具体的,第一终端设备针对至少一个资源集合中的任一个资源集合,若该资源集合关联的阈值小于第一终端设备关联的阈值,则从该资源集合中选择侧行资源。
在上述步骤803的第一种实现方式至第三种实现方式中,可以将关联的优先级低于第一终端设备关联的优先级,和/或,关联的阈值小于第一终端设备关联的阈值的资源集合称为是目标资源集合。第一终端设备从目标资源集合中选择侧行资源时,具体可以是确定该目标资源集合中信号强度值最小的i个资源作为侧行资源,其中,i为正整数,且i小于或等于N。
在上述步骤803的第一种实现方式至第三种实现方式中,若第一终端设备需要预留周期性的资源,则可以根据自身对资源预留周期的需求和该资源集合中资源预留周期,从资源集合中确定周期性的n个资源,其中,n为正整数,且n小于或等于N。
基于步骤803中第一种实现方式至第三种实现方式可知,第一终端设备关联的优先级高于侧行资源所属资源集合关联的优先级,和/或,第一终端设备关联的阈值大于侧行资源所属资源集合关联的阈值。
由于资源指示信息还可以指示至少一个资源集合的阈值的提升次数,也即在确定该资源集合时,第二终端设备提升阈值的总次数。相应的,第一终端设备可以基于资源指示信 息指示的至少一个资源集合的阈值的提升次数,确定某个资源集合中可用资源是通过几次阈值提升获取到的,因此在使用时判断是否可以被正确使用或者是否可以被优先使用。
此外,在一种可选方式中,第二终端设备可以将至少一个资源集合的资源指示信息发送至多个终端设备,也即,该至少一个资源集合不仅是用于第一终端设备选择侧行资源,还用于其它终端设备选择侧行资源。在该种方式中,第一终端设备确定目标资源集合之后,可以采用现有技术中资源竞争方式,从该目标资源集合中与其它终端设备竞争资源。
步骤804,第一终端设备通过侧行资源发送侧行信息。
