  • Time-sensitive systems have high requirements for time synchronization, and each clock needs to be synchronized. However, there may be multiple master clocks in the network. In order to determine the optimal clock, the 5G bridge also needs to solve the following problems:
  • the bridge's ports are on DS-TT and NW-TT.
  • a 5G network can have multiple DS-TTs. Therefore, different DS-TTs and NW-TTs may receive notification messages from external clocks. Therefore, a centralized node is needed to determine the best clock for this bridge.
  • NW-TT As the central node. After DS-TT receives the notification message, it forwards it to NW-TT. NW-TT determines the clock notification message of the master clock and the next hop according to the clock information collected on DS-TT port and NW-TT port.
  • the root clock in the clock notification message of the next hop is the system clock

  • the message priority vector is derived. Compare the message priority vector with the port priority vector. If the message priority vector is not superior to the port priority vector, it is of no value for the DS-TT to forward the clock notification message or message priority vector to the NW-TT. Because it cannot be a candidate for the best clock. Sending the clock notification message or message priority vector is a waste of resources.
  • An optional solution is to configure and save the port priority vector of each port on the DS-TT.
  • the DS-TT compares the port priority vector with the message priority vector derived from the received notification message.
  • the notification message or message priority vector is sent to the NW-TT only when the port priority vector is present; otherwise, the DS-TT discards the received notification message or message priority vector.
  • the receive port is one of the inputs to the optimal clock selection algorithm. When there is no receiving port information in the notification message, how does the NW-TT know the receiving port of the notification message.
  • DS-TT When DS-TT sends a notification message, since there is no receiving port identification information in the notification message, DS-TT needs to let the UE send the notification message through the PDU session of the port receiving the notification message, so that the UPF can associate out the notification message through the PDU session.

在时间敏感网络(Time Sensing Network,TSN)中,时间相关数据流的发送端和接收端之间可以通过一个或多个网桥进行数据的转发。在时间同步网络中,网桥可以从不同的端口接收到不同时钟的时钟通知消息,网桥自己也有一个时钟。网桥需要对收的时钟和本系统的时钟进行比较,选择一个最佳时钟作为主时钟,并发送通知消息,传播选择的主时钟。因此,如何确定最佳时钟是目前时间相关业务中急需解决的问题。

具体实施方式
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清楚、完整地描述,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作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。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象,而不用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的数据在适当情况下可以互换,以便本申请的实施例能够以除了在这里图示或描述的那些以外的顺序实施,且“第一”、“第二”所区别的对象通常为一类,并不限定对象的个数,例如第一对象可以是一个,也可以是多个。此外,说明书以及权利要求中“和/或”表示所连接对象的至少其中之一,字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“和/或”的关系。比如NW-TT/UPF,可以是一种合设的设备。
值得指出的是,本申请实施例所描述的技术不限于长期演进型(Long Term Evolution,LTE)/LTE的演进(LTE-Advanced,LTE-A)系统,还可用于其他无线通信系统,诸如码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)、时分多址(Time Division Multiple Access,TDMA)、频分多址(Frequency Division Multiple Access,FDMA)、正交频分多址(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access,OFDMA)、单载波频分多址(Single-carrier Frequency-Division Multiple Access,SC-FDMA)和其他系统。本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”常被可互换地使用,所描述的技术既可用于以上提及的系统和无线电技术,也可用于其他系统和无线电技术。然而,以下描述出于示例目的描述了新空口(New Radio,NR)系统,并且在以下大部分描述中使用NR术语,尽管这些技术也可应用于NR系统应用以外的应用,如第6代(6 th Generation,6G)通信系统。
图1示出本申请实施例可应用的一种无线通信系统的框图。无线通信系统包括终端11和网络侧设备12。其中,终端11也可以称作终端设备或者用 户终端(User Equipment,UE),终端11可以是手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)或称为笔记本电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、掌上电脑、上网本、超级移动个人计算机(ultra-mobile personal computer,UMPC)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)、可穿戴式设备(Wearable Device)或车载设备(Vehicle User Equipment,VUE)、行人终端(Pedestrian User Equipment,PUE)等终端侧设备,可穿戴式设备包括:手环、耳机、眼镜等。需要说明的是,在本申请实施例并不限定终端11的具体类型。网络侧设备12可以是基站或核心网,其中,基站可被称为节点B、演进节点B、接入点、基收发机站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)、无线电基站、无线电收发机、基本服务集(Basic Service Set,BSS)、扩展服务集(Extended Service Set,ESS)、B节点、演进型B节点(eNB)、家用B节点、家用演进型B节点、WLAN接入点、WiFi节点、发送接收点(Transmitting Receiving Point,TRP)或所述领域中其他某个合适的术语,只要达到相同的技术效果,所述基站不限于特定技术词汇,需要说明的是,在本申请实施例中仅以NR系统中的基站为例,但是并不限定基站的具体类型。
本申请实施例中,时间敏感(Time Sensing)也可以称为周期确定性(Periodic deterministic)。时间敏感通信也可以称为周期确定性通信(Periodic deterministic communication)。时间敏感数据流也可以也可以称为周期确定性数据流。一种时间敏感的网络技术比如IEEE TSN(Time Sensing Network)。周期确定性通信是以传送间隔为周期进行数据传送。
本申请实施例中,时间敏感数据流发送端可以称为talker,时间敏感数据流的接收端可以称为listener。talker和listener之间可以通过的一个或多个网桥进行数据的转发。终端站节点(End Station)可以是talker或listener。网桥(Bridge)负责talker和listener之间的数据传送。
终端(如User Equipment,UE)、时间敏感适配器和通信网络构成一个网桥(后续以5G网桥为例说明)。对下行数据,设备侧时间敏感网络适配器(Device-side TSN translator,DS-TT)的端口可以是数据的出端口,网络侧时间敏感网络适配器(Network-side TSN translator,NW-TT)的端口是数据的入端口。对上行数据,NW-TT的端口可以是数据的入端口,DS-TT的端口是 数据的出端口。终端可以和DS-TT合设。用户面功能(User Plane Function,UPF)可以和NW-TT合设。
可选的,一个终端可以连接一个或多个DS-TT,一个DS-TT上可以有一个或多个端口。一个5G网桥可以有一个UPF,所述UPF的NW-TT上可以启用一个或多个端口。终端可以作为DS-TT的端口的代理,与UPF建立协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)会话。通过所述PDU会话,DS-TT上的端口与UPF合设的NW-TT的端口建立关联。DS-TT的所述端口成为5G网桥的一个端口。DS-TT的端口和NW-TT的端口都可以分别连接,TSN网桥(TSN Bridge)和/或终端站(End Station)。通过所述5G网桥,TT的端口连接的TSN网桥和/或终端站就可以进行通信。
时间敏感系统对时间同步要求高,需要各个时钟保持同步。但是网络中可能存在多个主时钟,5G网桥为了确定最佳时钟,还要解决如下问题:
问题1:在5GS网桥中,网桥的端口位于DS-TT和NW-TT上。一个5G网络可以有多个DS-TT。因此不同的DS-TT和NW-TT都可能接收到外部时钟的通知消息。因此需要一个集中的节点为本网桥决定最佳时钟。
一种可选的解决的方法是:由NW-TT作为中心节点。DS-TT接收到通知消息后都转发给NW-TT,NW-TT根据DS-TT端口和NW-TT端口上搜集到的时钟信息,决定主时钟和下一跳的时钟通知消息。
比如,当采用本系统的时钟作为主时钟时,下一跳的时钟通知消息中的根时钟为本系统时钟,与根时钟的距离为0。
比如,当采用接收到的时钟通知消息之一中的时钟作为主时钟时,下一跳的时钟通知消息中的根时钟为所述接收到的时钟,并将与根时钟的路径开销(比如与根时钟的距离跳数)+1,并决定发送所述时钟通知消息的端口。
问题2:根据最佳时钟选择算法,端口接收到时钟通知消息后,推导出消息优先级向量。比较消息优先级向量和端口优先级向量。如果消息优先级向量并不优于端口优先级向量,DS-TT向NW-TT转发所述时钟通知消息或消息优先级向量是没有价值的。因为其不能作为最佳时钟的候选。发送所述时钟通知消息或消息优先级向量是资源的浪费。
一种可选的解决方法是,DS-TT上配置保存各个端口的端口优先级向量, DS-TT比较端口优先级向量和接收的通知消息导出的消息优先级向量,只有当消息优先级向量优于端口优先级向量时,才向NW-TT发送所述通知消息或消息优先级向量;否则,DS-TT丢弃所述接收的通知消息或或消息优先级向量。
问题3:接收端口是进行最佳时钟选择算法的输入之一。通知消息中没有接收端口信息时,NW-TT如何得知通知消息的接收端口。
当DS-TT发送通知消息时,由于通知消息中没有接收端口标识信息,DS-TT需要让UE通过接收所述通知消息的端口的PDU会话来发送所述通知消息,以便UPF通过PDU会话关联出端口号,NW-TT根据接收端口号和通知消息推导出消息优先级向量以便进行下一步。
当DS-TT发送的是消息优先级向量时,则把它包含在接收端口的相关端口管理容器或DS-TT管理容器中进行发送。由于消息优先级向量中包含了接收端口的消息。
一种实施方式中,DS-TT在消息优先级向量优于端口优先级向量时,用消息优先级向量更新端口优先级向量,并将更新的端口优先级向量发送给NW-TT。
另一种方面,在网络中,同样可能存在多个根网桥,5G网桥如何确定根网桥,根据生成树算法生成路径,也需要解决。最佳根网桥确定与主时钟确定的问题和方法类比。
问题1:在5GS网桥中,网桥的端口位于DS-TT和NW-TT上。一个5G网络可以有多个DS-TT。因此不同的DS-TT和NW-TT都可能接收到外部根网桥的配置消息。因此需要一个集中的节点为本网桥决定最佳根网桥。
问题2:根据生成树算法,端口接收到配置消息后,推导出消息优先级向量。比较消息优先级向量和端口优先级向量。如果消息优先级向量并不优于端口优先级向量,DS-TT向NW-TT转发所述时钟通知消息或消息优先级向量是没有价值的。因为其不能作为最佳根网桥的候选。发送所述配置消息或消息优先级向量是资源的浪费。
问题3:接收端口是进行生成树算法的输入之一。配置消息中没有接收端口信息时,NW-TT如何得知通知消息的接收端口。
