Abstract
一种系统信息的配置方法、获取方法及装置。该配置方法包括:基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息;以及发送该调度信息。
Description
本申请涉及通信领域。
在新无线(NR,New Radio)中,在建立通信之前,终端设备需要应用系统信息获取过程以获取接入层(AS)和非接入层(NAS)信息。该系统信息获取过程适用于空闲态、非连接态和连接态的终端设备。
图1是NR中的系统信息获取过程的一示意图。如图1所示,该过程包括:终端设备获取主信息块(MIB,MasterInformationBlock);该终端设备还可以获取系统信息块1(SIB1,SystemInformationBlockType1);另外,如果需要,该终端设备还可以向该网络设备发送系统信息请求(SystemInformationRequest),以请求该网络设备广播系统信息消息(SystemInformation messages),并获取该系统信息消息。
应该注意,上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便,对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明,并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本申请的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
在NR中,存储的系统信息块被引入。使用该方法,终端设备可以存储获取的SIB。除了MIB、SIB1、SIB6(SystemInformationBlockType6)、SIB7(SystemInformationBlockType7)或者SIB8(SystemInformationBlockType8),对于其他需要的SIB,例如在小区重选后或者从覆盖范围外返回时或收到系统信息(SI)修改指示后,终端设备可以使用存储的系统信息的有效版本。
当小区选择时(例如开机时)、小区重选时、从无覆盖返回、同步重配完成后、从另一个RAT进入网络后、收到系统信息改变的指示时、收到PWS通知时或者从上层收到请求时(例如收到定位请求时),终端设备将会应用系统信息获取过程,首先获取MIB和SIB1并存储获取的MIB和SIB1。对于需要的SIB,终端设备可以检查是否存储了有效版本的SIB,如果存储了有效版本的SIB,则可以使用存储的版本; 一旦终端没有存储有效版本的SIB,该终端设备获取该SIB。此外,终端设备可以存储获取的SIB,并存储该SIB的关联信息,包括区域范围(areaScope)、公共陆地移动网标识(PLMN-Identity)、系统信息区域标识(systemInformationAreaID)和小区标识(cellIdentity)。
对于需要的SIB,终端设备可以检查是否存储了有效版本。
例如,对于该SIB的一个存储版本,如果该SIB的该存储版本关联了“区域范围(areaScope)”,那么,如果该终端设备不具有NPN(非公众网络,non-publicnetworks)能力或服务小区不是仅NPN(NPN-only)小区,当系统调度信息(si-SchedulingInfo,又称为调度信息)中的系统信息区域标识以及该SIB关联的值标签(valueTag)、其他信息中的公共陆地移动网标识(PLMN-Identity)与该存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识、值标签以及公共陆地移动网标识相同时,该终端设备认为该存储版本有效,否则认为无效,如果该终端设备具有NPN能力且服务小区是仅NPN(NPN-only)小区,当系统调度信息中的系统信息区域标识以及该SIB关联的值标签(valueTag)、其他信息中的NPN标识(NPN-Identity)与该存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识、值标签以及NPN标识相同时,该终端设备认为该存储版本有效,否则认为无效;
如果该SIB的该存储版本没有关联“区域范围(areaScope)”,那么,如果该终端设备不具有NPN能力或服务小区不是仅NPN小区,当系统调度信息中的该SIB关联的值标签、其他信息中的公共陆地移动网标识以及小区标识与该存储版本关联的值标签、公共陆地移动网标识以及小区标识相同时,该终端设备认为该存储版本有效,否则认为无效,如果该终端设备具有NPN能力且服务小区是仅NPN小区,当系统调度信息中的该SIB关联的值标签、其他信息中的NPN标识以及小区标识与该存储版本关联的值标签、NPN标识以及小区标识相同时,该终端设备认为该存储版本有效,否则认为无效。
发明人发现,基于当前的机制,如果服务小区的系统调度信息(si-SchedulingInfo)里为一个SIB配置了“areaScope”,则终端设备检查该系统调度信息里的系统信息区域标识以及其他信息,确定存储版本的有效性。
但是,系统信息区域标识是可选信息,也就是说,在一些场景里,网络侧可能不会提供该信息。在这种情况下,对于一个关联了“areaScope”的SIB,终端设备的行为是不确定的,例如,终端设备可能无法判断该SIB的存储版本是否有效,或者,终 端设备可能认为该SIB的所有存储的版本都是无效的或者认为多个存储版本都是有效的。这将会造成终端设备的测试错误,增加测试成本;也可能造成终端设备的耗电增加。
为了解决上述问题中的一个或多个,本申请实施例提供了一种系统信息的配置方法、获取方法及装置。网络设备基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,能够避免配置了区域范围但没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况,或者,终端设备在检查一个SIB的存储版本的有效性时,规定了配置或没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况下终端设备的行为。因此,能够避免终端设备行为的不确定性,并降低测试的复杂度以及终端设备的开销。

本申请实施例的有益效果之一在于:网络设备基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,能够避免配置了区域范围但没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况,或者,终端设备在检查一个SIB的存储版本的有效性时,规定了配置或没有配置 系统信息区域标识的情况下终端设备的行为。因此,能够避免终端设备行为的不确定性,并降低测试的复杂度以及终端设备的开销。
另外,当终端设备获取了MIB和SIB1之后,如果需要,终端设备可以向网络设备发送系统信息请求消息,请求网络广播系统信息消息。
为了保证系统信息请求消息的发送,网络设备可以提供以下配置:
SIB1中只包括si-RequestConfigSUL;
SIB1中只包括si-RequestConfig;
SIB1中包括si-RequestConfigSUL和si-RequestConfig;以及
SIB1中不包括si-RequestConfigSUL和si-RequestConfig。
类似地,对于定位系统信息,网络设备可以提供一下配置:
SIB1中只包括posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16;
SIB1中只包括posSI-RequestConfig-r16;
SIB1中包括posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16和posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16;以及
SIB1中不包括posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16和posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16。
其中,si-RequestConfig,posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16是常规上行(Normal UL,NUL)上用于请求系统信息消息的配置,si-RequestConfigSUL,posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16是补充上行(Supplementary Uplink,SUL)上用于请求系统信息消息的配置。
发明人还发现,根据当前的机制,如果服务小区配置了补充上行且如果调度信息(SchedulingInfo)里任意系统信息消息(SI-message)的系统信息广播状态(例如,si-BroadcastStatus,posSI-BroadcastStatus)设置为“不广播(notBroadcasting)”,补充上行上用于系统信息消息发送的配置(例如,si-RequestConfigSUL,posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16)可选存在;否则si-RequestConfigSUL空缺。因此,为了确定是否提供si-RequestConfigSUL或posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16,网络设备需要知道服务小区是否配置了补充上行。
根据当前的机制,当网络设备提供了SUL配置;且考虑终端设备能力(例如包括支持的频带、支持的上行信道带宽等),终端设备能够支持SUL配置里指示的SUL频带时,终端设备认为服务小区配置了补充上行。而网络设备能够知道自己是否提供了SUL配置,但网络可能无法确定上述终端设备能力,因为驻留在该小区下的终端 设备可能尚未向网络设备指示其终端设备能力;或者,即使所有终端设备都提供了终端设备能力,对于一个SUL配置,服务小区下可能有的终端设备能够支持该配置,有的终端设备无法支持。因此网络设备无法确定服务小区是否配置了补充上行,也就无法确定SIB1是否包括si-RequestConfigSUL或posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16。
为了解决上述问题中的一个或多个,本申请实施例还提供了一种系统信息的配置方法及装置。对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。这样,网络设备能够明确SIB1里的内容,避免网络设备实现的不确定性,降低了网络设备产品的测试成本,从而节约了布网成本。
根据本申请实施例的第十四方面,提供了一种系统信息的配置装置,所述装置应用于网络设备,所述装置包括:配置单元,其对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。
根据本申请实施例的第十五方面,提供了一种网络设备,该网络设备包括根据本申请实施例的第十四方面所述的装置。
根据本申请实施例的第十六方面,提供了一种通信系统,该通信系统包括根据本申请实施例的第十四方面所述的网络设备。
根据本申请实施例的第十七方面,提供了一种系统信息的配置方法,所述方法应用于网络设备,所述方法包括:
对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,所述网络设备考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,所述网络设备不考虑终端设备的能力或者所述网络设备只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。
根据本申请实施例的第十八方面,提供了一种提供了一种计算机可读程序,其中当在系统信息的配置装置或网络设备中执行所述程序时,所述程序使得所述系统信息的配置装置或网络设备执行本申请实施例的第十七方面所述的系统信息的配置方法。
根据本申请实施例的第十九方面,提供了一种存储有计算机可读程序的存储介 质,其中所述计算机可读程序使得系统信息的配置装置或网络设备执行本申请实施例的第十七方面所述的系统信息的配置方法。
本申请实施例的有益效果之一还在于:对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。这样,网络设备能够明确SIB1里的内容,避免网络设备实现的不确定性,降低了网络设备产品的测试成本,从而节约了布网成本。

其中,基站可以包括但不限于:节点B(NodeB或NB)、演进节点B(eNodeB或eNB)以及5G基站(gNB),等等,此外还可包括远端无线头(RRH,Remote Radio Head)、远端无线单元(RRU,Remote Radio Unit)、中继(relay)或者低功率节点(例如femto、pico等等)。并且术语“基站”可以包括它们的一些或所有功能,每个基站可以对特定的地理区域提供通信覆盖。术语“小区”可以指的是基站和/或其覆盖区域,这取决于使用该术语的上下文。

在本申请实施例中,“当……时”、“在……情况下”、“对于……的情况”以及“如果……”都表示基于某个或某些条件或状态等,另外,这些表述方式可以互相替换。
以下通过示例对本申请实施例的场景进行说明,但本申请不限于此。
图2是本申请实施例的通信系统的一示意图,其示意性说明了以终端设备和网络设备为例的情况,如图2所示,通信系统100可以包括:网络设备101和终端设备102。为简单起见,图1仅以一个终端设备为例进行说明。网络设备101例如为NR的网络设备gNB。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备101和终端设备102之间可以进行现有的业务或者未来可实施的业务。例如,这些业务包括但不限于:增强的移动宽带(eMBB,enhanced Mobile Broadband)、大规模机器类型通信(mMTC,massive Machine Type Communication)和高可靠低时延通信(URLLC,Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communication),等等。
基于当前的机制,终端设备102为了验证是否存在一个系统信息块的有效存储版本,对于一个SIB的一个存储版本,如果该SIB的该存储版本关联了“区域范围(areaScope)”且其值与服务小区的系统调度信息(si-SchedulingInfo)里收到的该SIB的“areaScope”值相同,则终端设备102检查该系统调度信息里的系统信息区域标识以及其他信息与该SIB的该存储版本关联的相应信息是否一致;如果该SIB的该存储版本不存在“areaScope”且服务小区的系统调度信息里不包括该SIB的“areaScope”值,则终端设备102检查小区标识以及其他信息与该SIB的该存储版本关联的相应信息是否一致。
但是,系统信息区域标识是可选信息,也就是说,在一些场景里,网络设备101 可能不会提供该信息。例如,终端设备102进行小区重选后,发现系统调度信息里不包括系统信息区域标识;或者,终端设备102从覆盖范围外返回时,发现系统调度信息里不包括系统信息区域标识;或者,网络设备101发送了SI修改指示后,更新了系统调度信息,该系统调度信息不包括系统信息区域标识。
在这些情况下,对于一个关联了“areaScope”的SIB,可能存在以下问题:
终端设备102无法判断该SIB的存储版本是否有效,从而导致终端设备102行为的不确定,造成终端设备102的测试错误;或者,
终端设备102可能认为该SIB的所有存储的版本都是无效的,从而需要终端设备102重新获取该SIB;而在该SIB不变的情况下重新获取该SIB,会造成不必要的终端设备的耗电,这对于需要节能的终端设备来说是不可取的;或者,
在除了系统信息区域标识之外的其他信息一致的情况下,终端设备102可能认为关联的存储版本是有效的,这可能造成多个存储版本有效,从而终端设备102无法确定使用哪个版本或使用一个无效的存储版本。
例如,对于除了SIB1、SIB6,SIB7或者SIB8之外的一个系统信息块SIBx,终端设备102有一个存储版本1,其关联了“areaScope”,相应的存储信息还有公共陆地移动网标识1、系统信息区域标识1和小区标识1;终端设备102还有一个存储版本2,其关联了“areaScope”,相应的存储信息还有公共陆地移动网标识1、系统信息区域标识2和小区标识2。如果在服务小区的调度信息里收到了该SIBx的“areaScope”,但该调度信息不包括系统信息区域标识,按照当前的机制,终端设备102可能因为无法比较系统信息区域标识,而认为存在错误;或者,终端设备102认为存储版本1和存储版本2都不是有效的,从而需要重新获取该SIBx;或者,终端设备102认为存储版本1和存储版本2都是有效的,那么无法确定使用哪个版本,或选择了存储版本1(或存储版本2),但实际上该版本是无效的。
下面结合附图对本申请实施例的各种实施方式进行说明。这些实施方式只是示例性的,不是对本申请的限制。
实施例1
本申请实施例提供了一种系统信息的配置方法,该方法应用于网络设备。例如,该方法应用于图2中的网络设备101。
图3是本申请实施例1的系统信息的配置方法的一示意图。如图3所示,该方法 包括:
步骤301:基于系统信息区域标识(systemInformationAreaID)和区域范围(areaScope)的关联性生成调度信息(SchedulingInfo);以及
步骤302:发送该调度信息。
这样,网络设备基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,能够避免配置了区域范围但没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况,因此,能够避免终端设备行为的不确定性,并降低测试的复杂度以及终端设备的开销。
在步骤301中,网络设备基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,在本申请实施例中,该调度信息又可以称为系统调度信息(si-SchedulingInfo)。
例如,该调度信息包括在SIB1中。
在本申请实施例中,当调度信息中包括系统信息区域标识时,该系统信息区域标识对于所有小区特定的SIB都适用,也就是说,各个配置了区域范围的SIB关联相同的系统信息区域标识。
在本申请实施例中,当调度信息中包括区域范围时,该区域范围对应于一个SIB,也就是说,该调度信息可以包括一个或多个对应于一个SIB的区域范围。
当调度信息中包括对应于一个SIB的区域范围时,表示该SIB支持区域特定,也就是说,该SIB在该区域的多个小区中均有效,当调度信息中不包括对应于一个SIB的区域范围时,表示该SIB不支持区域特定,也就是说,该SIB只在提供该SIB的小区内有效。
在本申请实施例中,基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,例如,该调度信息中可以同时包括系统信息区域标识和区域范围,或者,该调度信息中可以同时不包括系统信息区域标识和区域范围,或者,该调度信息中可以包括系统信息区域标识,但不包括区域范围。
以下,对如何基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息进行示例性的说明。
图4是本申请实施例1的生成调度信息的方法的一示意图。如图4所示,该方法包括:
步骤401:当该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识时,该网络设备在该调度信息内为一个或多个SIB配置该区域范围或者可选的在该调度信息内为一个或多个SIB 配置该区域范围;以及
步骤402:当该调度信息不包括该系统信息区域标识时,该网络设备不在该调度信息内配置该区域范围。
也就是说,如果该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识,那么,该网络设备在该调度信息内为一个或多个SIB配置该区域范围或者可选的在该调度信息内为一个或多个SIB配置该区域范围,否则,不配置该区域范围。
在步骤401中,该网络设备在该调度信息内为一个或多个SIB配置该区域范围是指在该调度信息内强制的为一个或多个SIB配置该区域范围。
在本申请实施例中,该SIB可以是SIB2、SIB3、SIB4以及SIB5中的至少一个,另外,该SIB还可以是SIB9、SIB10、SIB11、SIB12、SIB13以及SIB14中的至少一个。
在本申请实施例中,相应的,该调度信息中的该区域范围域的必要性编码条件为:当该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识时,该区域范围域强制的存在;当该调度信息不包括该系统信息区域标识时,该区域范围域不存在。也就是说,如果该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识,那么,该区域范围域强制的存在;否则该区域范围域不存在。
或者,该调度信息中的该区域范围域的必要性编码条件为:当该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识时,该区域范围域可选的存在;当该调度信息不包括该系统信息区域标识时,该区域范围域不存在。也就是说,如果该调度信息包括该系统信息区域标识,那么,该区域范围域可选的存在;否则该区域范围域不存在。
也就是说,该区域范围域(areaScope域)是基于该系统信息区域标识域(systemInformationAreaID域)的、有条件的存在,即,条件SI-Area-ID可以用如下的表1或表2进行定义。
表1
表2
在本申请实施例中,条件SI-Area-ID只是一个示例性的名称,也可以使用其他名称表示,例如,条件SIAreaID或条件SI_AID等。
这样,只有在配置了系统信息区域标识的情况下,网络才会为一个或多个SIB配置区域范围,支持区域特定的SIB。这样,终端设备检查一个SIB的存储版本的有效性时,对于配置了区域范围的SIB,必然能够检查调度信息中的系统信息区域标识是否与该存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识一致。此外,该方法允许在配置了系统信息区域标识的情况下,网络设备可选地配置区域范围,保证了网络配置的灵活性。
另外,在该方法中,在没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况下,网络不会配置区域范围,不支持区域特定的SIB。这样节约了信令开销,节省频谱资源。
图5是本申请实施例1的生成调度信息的方法的另一示意图。如图5所示,该方法包括:
步骤501:当该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内;以及
步骤502:当该调度信息不包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识可选的配置在该调度信息内。
也就是说,如果该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围,那么,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内,否则,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识可选的配置在该调度信息内。
在本申请实施例中,该SIB可以是SIB2、SIB3、SIB4以及SIB5中的至少一个,另外,该SIB还可以是SIB9、SIB10、SIB11、SIB12、SIB13以及SIB14中的至少一个。
在本申请实施例中,相应的,该调度信息中的系统信息区域标识域的必要性编码条件为:当该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该系统信息区域标识域强制存在;以及当该调度信息不包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围 时,该系统信息区域标识域可选的存在。也就是说,如果该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围,那么,该系统信息区域标识域强制存在;否则,该系统信息区域标识域可选的存在。
也就是说,该系统信息区域标识域(systemInformationAreaID域)是基于该区域范围域(areaScope域)的、有条件的存在,即,条件AreaScope可以用如下的表3进行定义。
表3
在本申请实施例中,条件AreaScope只是一个示例性的名称,也可以使用其他名称表示,例如,条件Area-Scope或条件Area_Scope等。
这样,在为一个或多个SIB配置了区域范围、即支持区域特定的SIB的情况下,网络设备一定配置系统信息区域标识,以确定该服务小区所在的系统信息的区域。这样,终端设备检查一个SIB的存储版本的有效性时,对于配置了区域范围的SIB,必然能检查调度信息中的系统信息区域标识是否与存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识一致。
另外,在该方法中,在没有配置区域范围、即不支持区域特定的SIB的情况下,网络可选地配置系统信息区域标识,这样保证了网络配置的灵活性。
图6是本申请实施例1的生成调度信息的方法的另一示意图。如图6所示,该方法包括:
步骤601:当该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内;以及
步骤602:当该调度信息不包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该网络设备不将该系统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内。
也就是说,如果该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围,那么,该网络设备将该系统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内,否则,该网络设备不将该系 统信息区域标识配置在该调度信息内。
在本申请实施例中,该SIB可以是SIB2、SIB3、SIB4以及SIB5中的至少一个,另外,该SIB还可以是SIB9、SIB10、SIB11、SIB12、SIB13以及SIB14中的至少一个。
在本申请实施例中,相应的,该调度信息中的系统信息区域标识域的必要性编码条件为:当该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该系统信息区域标识域强制存在;以及当该调度信息不包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围时,该系统信息区域标识域不存在。也就是说,如果该调度信息包括一个或多个为一个SIB配置的区域范围,那么,该系统信息区域标识域强制存在;否则,该系统信息区域标识域不存在。
也就是说,该系统信息区域标识域(systemInformationAreaID域)是基于该区域范围域(areaScope域)的、有条件的存在,即,条件AreaScope可以用如下的表4进行定义。
表4
在本申请实施例中,条件AreaScope只是一个示例性的名称,也可以使用其他名称表示,例如,条件Area-Scope或条件Area_Scope等。
这样,在为一个或多个SIB配置了区域范围、即支持区域特定的SIB的情况下,网络设备一定配置系统信息区域标识,以确定该服务小区所在的系统信息的区域。这样,终端设备检查一个SIB的存储版本的有效性时,对于配置了区域范围的SIB,必然能检查调度信息中的系统信息区域标识是否与存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识一致。
另外,在这个实施例里,在没有配置区域范围、即不支持区域特定的SIB的情况下,网络设备不会配置系统信息区域标识,这样节约了信令开销,节省频谱资源。
在通过步骤301生成该调度信息后,在步骤302中,网络设备可以通过广播的形式发送生成的该调度信息。
例如,该调度信息包括在SIB1里,参见图1,网络设备以广播的形式发送SIB1。
由上述实施例可知,网络设备基于系统信息区域标识和区域范围的关联性生成调度信息,能够避免配置了区域范围但没有配置系统信息区域标识的情况,因此,能够避免终端设备行为的不确定性,并降低测试的复杂度以及终端设备的开销。
实施例2
本申请实施例提供了一种系统信息的获取方法,该方法应用于终端设备,其对应于实施例1所述的应用于网络设备的系统信息的配置方法,相同的内容不再重复说明。例如,该方法应用于图2中的终端设备102。
图7是本申请实施例2的系统信息的获取方法的一示意图。如图7所示,该方法包括:
步骤701:获得调度信息,该调度信息是基于系统信息区域标识(systemInformationAreaID)和区域范围(areaScope)的关联性生成的。
在本申请实施例中,该调度信息的生成方法可以参见实施例1中的记载,此处不再赘述。
在本申请实施例中,该调度信息可以包括在SIB1里,例如,该SIB1是网络设备以广播的形式发送的。
在本申请实施例中,如图7所示,该方法还可以包括:
步骤702:对于一个SIB,根据该调度信息和服务小区广播的系统信息中的其他信息确定是否存储了该SIB的有效版本。
在本申请实施例中,该其他信息可以包括在SIB1里。
在本申请实施例中,该SIB可以是SIB2、SIB3、SIB4以及SIB5中的至少一个,另外,该SIB还可以是SIB9、SIB10、SIB11、SIB12、SIB13以及SIB14中的至少一个。
在步骤702中,对于该SIB的一个存储版本,当该调度信息中的系统信息区域标识以及该SIB关联的值标签(valueTag)以及该其他信息中的公共陆地移动网标识(PLMN-Identity)与该存储版本关联的系统信息区域标识、值标签以及公共陆地移动网标识相同时,该终端设备认为该存储版本有效。

在本申请实施例中,上述各个条件使用的名称只是一个示例性的名称,也可以使用其他名称来表示,本申请实施例不对这些名称的形式和格式进行限制。在本申请实施例中,该调度信息又称为系统调度信息,该调度信息可以包括在SIB1里。
由上述实施例可知,对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。这样,网络设备能够明确SIB1里的内容,避免网络设备实现的不确定性,降低了网络设备产品的测试成本,从而节约了布网成本。

例如,所述当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置,包括:当小区公共的第一配置信息里包括补充上行配置时,在调度信息中可选的提供补充上行上用于系统信息消息发送的配置(例如si-RequestConfigSUL,posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16)。
例如,该第一配置信息为服务小区公共配置(servingCellConfigCommon))。
例如,当服务小区公共配置(servingCellConfigCommon)里存在补充上行(supplementaryUplink)且当调度信息(SchedulingInfo)里任意系统信息消息(SI-message)的系统信息广播状态(例如si-BroadcastStatus,posSI-BroadcastStatus)设置为不广播时,在该调度信息中可选的提供该补充上行上用于系统信息消息发送的配置(例如si-RequestConfigSUL,posSI-RequestConfigSUL-r16)。

例如,该调度信息包括在SIB1里。
在另一个实施方式中,系统信息的配置装置可以与处理器2110分开配置,例如可以将系统信息的配置装置配置为与处理器2110连接的芯片,通过处理器2110的控制来实现系统信息的配置装置的功能。
此外,如图21所示,网络设备2100还可以包括:收发机2140和天线2150等;其中,上述部件的功能与现有技术类似,此处不再赘述。值得注意的是,网络设备2100也并不是必须要包括图21中所示的所有部件;此外,网络设备2100还可以包括图21中没有示出的部件,可以参考现有技术。
由上述实施例可知,对于终端设备特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,考虑终端设备的能力,或者,对于终端设备特定的参数和小区特定的参数,当存在条件包括服务小区配置了补充上行时,不考虑终端设备的能力或者只考虑网络设备为终端设备提供了SUL配置。这样,网络设备能够明确SIB1里的内容,避免网络设备实现的不确定性,降低了网络设备产品的测试成本,从而节约了布网成本。
