Description

辅小区组的主小区更新方法、装置及存储介质
本申请要求于2020年08月07日提交中国专利局、申请号为202010788021.X、申请名称为“辅小区组的主小区更新方法、装置及存储介质”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
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种辅小区组的主小区更新方法、装置及存储介质。
背景技术
在多连接场景下,终端设备与网络侧的多个网络设备保持连接状态,以双连接场景为例,终端设备与网络侧的两个网络设备保持连接状态,分别为一个主节点(Master Node,MN)和一个辅节点(Secondary Node,SN)。其中,MN为终端设备配置一个主小区组(Master Cell Group,MCG),MCG包括一个主小区(PCell)和零至多个辅小区;SN为终端设备配置一个辅小区组(Secondary Cell Group,SCG),SCG也包括一个主小区(PSCell)和零至多个辅小区。MN和SN可以同时与终端设备进行数据交互,同时终端设备也会对MCG和SCG进行无线资源管理(Radio Resource Management,RRM)测量并上报给网络侧。如果网络侧根据终端设备的RRM测量,确定变更或添加PCell/PSCell,则向终端设备发送相应的命令,终端设备再执行相应的处理。或者,如果终端设备根据RRM测量确定满足预先配置的变更或添加PCell/PSCell的条件,则终端设备执行相应的变更或添加PCell/PSCell的处理。
目前,考虑到节能,在数据传输量较小的情况下,可以将SCG设置为挂起态,此时的状态可以称为dormant SCG状态或suspend SCG状态或去激活SCG状态(deactivation)。在dormant/suspend/deactivation SCG状态下,终端设备不监听SCG的PDCCH,不与SN进行数据传输,但会对该SCG进行RRM测量并上报给网络侧。这种情况下,终端设备如何执行变更或添加PSCell有待解决。

在另一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备进行RRM测量获得一个或多个备选小区(包括目标小区)的测量结果,评估各备选小区的测量结果是否满足终端设备更新PSCell的条件,如果满足,则确定终端设备需要更新终端设备的PSCell,并确定满足条件的备选小区为需要更新为终端设备的PSCell的目标小区。可选的,终端设备在评估各备选小区的测量结果是否满足终端设备更新PSCell的条件之前,还接收网络设备发送的第四信息,该第四信息用于指示终端设备更新PSCell的条件。该第四信息比如可以称为条件配置信息。其中,终端设备更新PSCell的条件包括:终端设备变更PSCell的条件和/或终端设备添加PSCell的条件。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备进行RRM测量获得一个或多个备选小区(包括目标小区)的测量结果,评估各备选小区的测量结果是否满足终端设备更新PSCell的条件,如果目标小区满足终端设备更新PSCell的条件,则终端设备向网络设备发送目标小区的标识信息。相应地,网络设备接收到目标小区的标识信息,获知该目标小区的测量结果满足终端设备更新PSCell的条件,从而确定终端设备需要将目标小区更新为终端设备的PSCell。网络设备再向终端设备发送第三信息,第三信息用于指示终端设备将目标小区更新为终端设备的PSCell。终端设备根据第三信息确定需要将目标小区更新为PSCell。可选的,在网络设备需激活终端设备的SCG时向终端设备发送第三信息。

可选的,在图4-图7任一实施例的基础上,终端设备将目标小区更新为终端设备的PSCell之后,设置终端设备的SCG为挂起态,或设置终端设备的SCG为激活态,或根据第一信息设置终端设备的SCG为目标状态,第一信息用于指示终端设备的SCG为目标状态。下面采用几个具体的实施方案对本申请进行描述,以终端设备为UE作为例子描述。
当UE配置了dormant/suspend/deactivation SCG时,表示UE的当前SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,可以采用如下实施方案1-实施方案3分别进行说明。
实施方案1:UE收到网络侧发送的重配置消息中不带有同步重配置消息。
步骤1.1:网络侧为UE配置了2个节点,1个主节点(MN),1个辅节点(SN),其中SN侧的SCG的状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
步骤1.2:网络侧(比如MN)给UE发送重配置消息,该重配置消息是有关SCG的重配置消息。
步骤1.3:UE接收到网络侧发送的重配置消息中不带有SCG的同步重配置消息时,该SCG的同步重配置消息用于指示更新PSCell(PSCell change或PSCell addition)。UE应用新配置,比如UE根据重配置消息中的配置信息,应用新配置。并且终端设备维持SCG在dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
本实施方案中,网络设备在终端设备的SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态时,不向终端设备发送指示终端设备更新PSCell的命令。在终端设备的SCG为激活态时,网络设备才会指示终端设备进行PSCell change或PSCell addition。
实施方案2:UE接收到网络侧发送的重配置消息中带有PSCell change命令,该PSCell change命令指示终端设备变更终端设备的PSCell。
步骤2.1:网络侧为UE配置了2个节点,1个主节点(MN),1个辅节点(SN),其中SN侧的SCG状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
步骤2.2:网络侧(比如MN)给UE发送重配置消息。
步骤2.3:UE接收到网络侧发送的重配置消息中带有SCG侧的PSCell change命令,其中,UE执行PSCell change之后的PSCell可称为目标小区。UE执行PSCell change过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对该目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活UE的SCG时再执行随机接入过程,从而完成PSCell change过程。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即对该目标小区执行随机接入过程。在UE随机接入目标小区后将UE的SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程,以及激活UE的SCG。所以在UE完成PSCell change后,终端设备SCG为激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。在UE完成随机接入过程后,将UE的SCG重新置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。所以使UE在接收PSCell change命令时与完成PSCell change之后,UE的SCG的状态相同。
在第五种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程,然后维持UE的SCG为激活态。所以虽然UE在接收到PSCell change命令时SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,但UE在完成PSCell change后,UE的SCG为激活态。
在第六种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。如果PSCell change命令中指示SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将SCG重新置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果PSCell change命令中指示SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将SCG置为激活态。因此,UE完成PSCell change后SCG的状态与PSCell change命令中指示的目标状态相同。
在第七种可能的实现方式中,上述的PSCell change命令伴随有激活SCG的命令,例如激活SCG的命令与PSCell change命令在同一个TB块中且携带在MAC CE或DCI中;UE按照激活SCG的命令激活SCG,并执行PSCell change过程,比如UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即对该目标小区执行随机接入过程。
在第八种可能的实现方式中,网络侧在向UE发送PSCell change命令之前,先激活UE的当前SCG。在UE的当前SCG为激活态时,网络侧再向UE发送PSCell change命令;即不允许UE的SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态时网络侧向UE发送PSCell change命令。
实施方案3:UE满足条件切换的配置条件(UE变更PSCell的条件)而触发条件PSCell变更(conditional PSCell change)。
步骤3.1:网络侧为UE配置了2个节点,1个主节点(MN),1个辅节点(SN),其中SN侧的SCG状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。网络侧为UE配置条件PSCell变更(conditional PSCell change,CPC)的配置条件信息,其中配置的信息中包含至少一个备选小区。然后执行步骤3.2a和步骤3.3a,或者,执行步骤3.2b。
步骤3.2a:UE执行CPC的小区测量评估,也就是评估上述至少一个备选小区的测量结果是否满足conditional PSCell change的执行条件。其中存在一个或多个备选小区(下述称为目标小区)的测量结果评估满足conditional PSCell change的执行条件。
步骤3.3a:UE触发SN侧的conditional PSCell change,SN侧的conditional PSCell change过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对该目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活UE的SCG时再执行随机接入过程,从而完成conditional PSCell change。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即对该目标小区执行随机接入过程。在UE随机接入目标小区后将UE的SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即对该目标小区执行随机接入过程,以及激活UE的SCG。所以在UE完成PSCell change后,终端设备SCG为激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。在UE完成随机接入过程 后,将UE的SCG重新置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。
在第五种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程,然后维持UE的SCG为激活态。
在第六种可能的实现方式中,UE先激活UE的当前SCG,使SCG为激活态,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置了目标SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将SCG重新置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置了目标SCG为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将SCG置为激活态。
在第七种可能的实现方式中,UE不执行conditional PSCell change过程,等UE的当前SCG恢复激活态后再进行conditional PSCell change过程。比如等网络侧激活UE的当前SCG后,UE再执行conditional PSCell change过程。
在第八种可能的实现方式中,UE将测量结果评估满足conditional PSCell change的执行条件的目标小区的小区标识信息上报给网络侧,由网络侧做决策。
步骤3.2b:UE不执行上述的CPC的小区测量评估,而是等UE的当前SCG恢复激活态后再进行CPC的小区测量评估,评估上述至少一个备选小区的测量结果是否满足PSCell change的执行条件,以决定是否执行conditional PSCell change。
上述实施方案2-3说明了UE的当前SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,进行PSCell change的过程。
下述为当目标SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)配置了dormant/suspend/deactivation SCG,表示目标SCG的目标状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,可以采用如下实施方案4-实施方案7分别进行说明。
实施方案4:UE接收到网络侧发送的重配置消息中带有PSCell change命令。
步骤4.1:网络侧为UE配置了2个节点,1个主节点(MN),1个辅节点(SN)。
步骤4.2:网络侧(比如MN)给UE发送重配置消息,重配置消息中携带有PSCell change命令。
步骤4.3:UE接收到网络侧发送的PSCell change命令,其中,UE执行PSCell change之后的PSCell可称为目标小区。UE执行PSCell change过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活UE的目标SCG时再执行随机接入过程,从而完成PSCell change过程。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置。如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE的SCG(上述的目标SCG)置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG为激活态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,并激活UE的SCG。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,如果UE的当前SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE先激活当前SCG,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接 入过程。如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的目标SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的目标SCG维持在激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,如果PSCell change命令中指示目标SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE不根据上述重配置消息执行PSCell change过程,而是等网络侧激活SCG(该SCG可以是目标SCG,或者,当前SCG)时,再根据重配置消息执行PSCell change。
实施方案5:UE满足条件切换的配置条件(UE变更PSCell的条件)而触发条件PSCell变更(conditional PSCell change)。
步骤5.1:网络侧为UE配置了2个节点,1个主节点(MN),1个辅节点(SN);网络侧为UE配置CPC,其中配置的信息中包含至少一个备选小区。
步骤5.2:UE执行CPC的小区测量评估,其中存在一个或多个备选小区(下述称为目标小区)的测量结果评估满足conditional PSCell change的执行条件。
步骤5.3:UE触发SN侧的conditional PSCell change,SN侧的conditional PSCell change过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置目标SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活UE的SCG时再执行随机接入过程,从而完成conditional PSCell change过程。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置目标SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE的目标SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置目标SCG为激活态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE的目标SCG置为激活态。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,如果UE的当前SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE先激活SCG,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置了目标SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的目标SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置了目标SCG为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的目标SCG置为激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,如果conditional PSCell change配置中配置了目标SCG状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE不执行conditional PSCell change过程,而是等网络侧激活SCG(该SCG可以是目标SCG,或者,当前SCG)时再执行conditional PSCell change。
在第五种可能的实现方式中,UE将测量结果评估满足conditional PSCell change的执行条件的目标小区的小区标识信息上报给网络侧,由网络侧做决策。

步骤6.2:网络侧(比如MN)给UE发送重配置消息,重配置消息中携带有PSCell addition命令。
步骤6.3:UE接收到网络侧发送的PSCell addition命令,其中,UE进行PSCell addition过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活新添加的SCG时再执行随机接入过程。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置。如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE新添加的SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG为激活态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且对目标小区立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE新添加的SCG置为激活态。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,UE激活添加的SCG,再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG为dormant态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的SCG置为dormant态。如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的SCG维持在激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,如果PSCell addition命令中指示添加的SCG状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE不根据上述重配置消息执行PSCell addition过程,而是等网络侧激活SCG(该SCG是待添加的SCG)时,再根据重配置消息执行PSCell addition。
实施方案7:UE满足条件添加的配置条件(UE添加PSCell的条件)而触发条件PSCell添加(conditional PSCell addition)

步骤7.2:UE执行conditional PSCell addition的小区测量评估,其中存在一个或多个备选小区(下述称为目标小区)的测量评估满足conditional PSCell addition的执行条件。
步骤7.3:UE触发conditional PSCell addition,conditional PSCell addition过程包括以下几种实现方式:
在第一种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置,如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置添加的SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步,但是UE对目标小区不立即执行随机接入过程,而是等网络侧激活UE的新添加的SCG时再执行随机接入过程,从而完成conditional PSCell change过程。
在第二种可能的实现方式中,UE应用新配置。如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置添加的SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE的添加的SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态。如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置添加的SCG为激活态,则UE完成与目标小区的下行同步且立即执行随机接入过程,再将UE新添加的SCG置为激活态。
在第三种可能的实现方式中,UE激活添加的SCG,UE再应用新配置,完成与目标小区的下行同步并立即对目标小区执行随机接入过程。如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置了添加的SCG为dormant态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的SCG置为dormant态。如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置了添加的SCG为激活态,则UE完成随机接入过程后将UE的SCG维 持在激活态。
在第四种可能的实现方式中,如果conditional PSCell addition配置中配置了添加的SCG状态为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,则不执行conditional PSCell addition过程,而是等网络侧激活待添加的SCG时再执行conditional PSCell addition。
在第五种可能的实现方式中,UE将测量结果评估满足conditional PSCell addition的执行条件的目标小区的小区标识信息上报给网络侧,由网络侧做决策。
通过上述各实施方案可知,针对多连接场景,UE的当前SCG为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,当UE需要进行PSCell change或PSCell addition,UE可以接入目标小区(变更或添加为PSCell)后将SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,或者,等待网络侧激活UE的SCG后再触发接入目标小区。或者,UE的目标SCG(包含目标小区为PSCell的SCG)配置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态,当UE需要进行PSCell change或PSCell addition或conditional PSCell addition/change,UE可以接入目标小区后将SCG置为dormant/suspend/deactivation态或待网络激活SCG后再触发接入目标小区。
