Description

通信方法和通信装置 技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种通信方法和通信装置。
背景技术
第五代(the 5th Generation,5G)通信系统的频点分为两部分:FR1(低频部分)和FR2(高频部分)。FR1的频点小于6吉赫兹(GHz),带宽可以是5兆赫兹(MHz),10MHz,15MHz,20MHz,25MHz,30MHz,40MHz,50MHz,60MHz,80MHz和100MHz;FR2的频点大于6GHz,带宽可以是50MHz,100MHz,200MHz和400MHz等。
5G的带宽最小可以是5MHz,最大能到400MHz。如果要求所有用户设备(user equipment,UE)都支持最大的带宽,即支持400MHz的带宽,则UE会有较高的功耗。
新空口(new radio,NR)中提出了带宽部分(bandwidth part,BWP)技术,其中,基站可以为UE配置BWP,UE使用基站配置的BWP接收信息,从而可以降低UE的功耗。
但是,通信技术的发展对UE在节能和待机时长方面提出了更高的需要。为了能够使得UE更节能,以便待机时长更长,需要进一步降低UE的功耗。因此,如何降低UE的功耗,是亟待解决的技术问题。
发明内容
本申请提供了通信系统中的通信方法和通信装置,可以降低UE的功耗。
第一方面,本申请提供了一种通信方法。该通信方法包括:终端设备确定第二部分带宽BWP,所述第二BWP小于第一BWP,所述第一BWP为所述网络设备为所述终端设备确定的BWP;所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,所述第一目标时段包括没有所述终端设备的下行数据的时段。
本申请的方法中,由终端自主调整BWP,且该调整后的BWP(即第二BWP)比网络设备为其确定的BWP(即第一BWP)小。终端使用更小的BWP来进行通信,可以节省更多的功耗,从而使得终端更节能。
结合第一方面,在第一种可能的实现方式中,所述第二BWP为下行BWP。其中,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,包括:所述终端设备在确定所述第一目标时段没有下行数据调度的情况下,使用所述第二BWP接收下行信息。
也就是说,终端在确定某个目标时间段(即第一目标时间段)没有下行数据调度时,可以自行调整得到比第一BWP更小的第二BWP,并使用该第二BWP接收下行信号,从而可以在下行传输过程中节省功耗。
结合第一种可能的实现方式,在第二种可能的实现方式中,所述第二BWP包含:物 理下行控制信道PDCCH的控制资源集CORESET所在的带宽、所述终端设备的服务小区的同步信号块SSB所在的带宽、跟踪参考信息TRS所在的带宽和信道状态信息CSI-参考信号RS所在的带宽。
结合第一种可能的实现方式,在第三种可能的实现方式中,所述第一BWP包含所述网络设备为所述终端设备配置的下行初始BWP。
也就是说,终端自主调整的下行BWP小于网络设备为其配置的下行初始BWP。
结合第一种至第三种中任意一种实现方式,在第四种可能的实现方式中,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP接收下行信息,包括:所述终端设备确定所述网络设备在所述第一目标时段没有发送CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和PDCCH中一种或多种信息的情况下,在所述第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP接收下行信息。
也就是说,终端在确定没有下行数据调度,且没有CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH传输的情况下,才自主将下行BWP调整为第二BWP。这样可以在节省功耗的同时避免BWP的减小对CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH的接收的影响。
结合第四种可能的实现方式,在第五种可能的实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备确定需要接收所述第一或多种信息的情况下,使用所述网络设备为所述终端设备配置的BWP接收所述一种或多种信息。
也就是说,终端使用较小的第二BWP接收下行信号的情况下,若终端确定将要接收CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH,则终端将下行BWP调整到网络设备为其配置的BWP。这样可以保证CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH的正常接收。
结合第一种至第三种中任意一种可能的实现方式,在第六种可能的实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备确定下行信息中包括CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和PDCCH中一种或多种信息的情况下,丢弃所述一种或多种信息。
也就是说,若终端在使用较小的第二BWP接收到CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH时,为了保证CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH的可靠性,不使用在第二BWP上接收到的这些信号,而是将接收到的这些信号丢掉。
结合第一种至第三种中任意一种可能的实现方式,在第七种可能的实现方式中,所述下行信息包括CSI-RS,其中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备基于所述下行信息向所述网络设备发送CSI反馈信息。
也就是说,终端可以在较小的第二BWP上接收CSI-RS,并基于接收到的CSI-RS进行CSI反馈。
结合第一方面,在第八种可能的实现方式中,所述第二BWP为上行BWP。其中,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,包括:所述终端设备在所述第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP向所述网络设备发送上行信息,并且,所述第二BWP仅包含所述上行信息所在的带宽。
也就是说,终端可以根据自己当前需要发送的上行信息所需的BWP来确定第二BWP,从而可以尽可能多的节省上行功耗。
结合第一方面或上述任意一种实现方式,在第九种可能的实现方式中,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,包括:所述终端设备确定所述 第二BWP与所述网络设备为所述终端设备配置的BWP之间的差值大于或等于预设的带宽阈值的情况下,在所述第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信。
也就是说,终端确定第二BWP之后,在第二BWP与第一BWP之间的差值小于预设阈值的情况下,才使用该第二BWP进行通信。这样可以避免终端自主调整的第二BWP与第一BWP比较接近,即节省功耗可以忽略时,终端依然进行BWP切换的情况发生,即可以减少不必要的BWP切换。
结合第一方面或上述任意一种可能的实现方式,在第十种可能的实现方式中,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,包括:所述终端设备确定在预设时间段内改变BWP的次数小于或等于预设的次数阈值的情况下,在所述第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,所述第一目标时段位于所述预设时间段内。
这样可以避免终端频繁切换,避免信号的错收、漏收或错发或漏发,从而可以保证通信正常进行。
结合第一方面或上述任意一种可能的实现方式,在第十一种可能的实现方式中,所述终端设备处于非连续接收数据DXR的提前唤醒阶段。
可选地,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信,包括:所述终端设备在确定所述提前唤醒阶段的最后一个时隙与所述提前唤醒阶段后第一个持续时间的第一个时隙之间的时隙差大于或等于预设的时隙差阈值的情况下,使用所述第二BWP与所述网络设备通信。
也就是说,终端在确定提前唤醒阶段即将结束时,可以不自主调整BWP,因为即使终端此时进行了BWP调整,终端很快也要切换到网络设备为其配置的BWP,所以该次切换其实意义不大。因此,该实现方式可以避免不必要的切换。
在第一方面或上述任意一种可能的实现方式中,所述第一目标时段的时长可以为一个或多个时隙。
第二方面,本申请提供了一种通信装置,该装置包括用于执行上述第一方面或其中任意一种实现方式中的方法的模块。
第三方面,提供了一种通信装置,该装置包括:存储器、处理器和接收器;所述存储器用于存储程序;所述处理器用于执行所述存储器存储的程序;当所述存储器存储的程序被执行时,所述处理器和所述收发器用于执行第一方面或者其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
第四方面,提供一种计算机可读介质,该计算机可读介质存储用于设备执行的程序代码,该程序代码用于执行第一方面或其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
第五方面,提供一种包含指令的计算机程序产品,当该计算机程序产品在计算机上运行时,使得计算机执行上述第一方面或其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
第六方面,提供一种芯片,所述芯片包括处理器与数据接口,所述处理器通过所述数据接口读取存储器上存储的指令,执行上述第一方面或其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
可选地,作为一种实现方式,所述芯片还可以包括存储器,所述存储器中存储有指令,所述处理器用于执行所述存储器上存储的指令,当所述指令被执行时,所述处理器用于执行第一方面或其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
第七方面,提供了一种终端设备,该终端设备包括:存储器,用于存储程序;处理器,用于执行所述存储器存储的程序,当所述存储器存储的程序被执行时,所述处理器用于执行第一方面或者其中任意一种实现方式中的方法。
第八方面,提供一种通信系统,所述通信系统包括第七方面中的终端设备。
第九方面,本申请提供一种通信方法。所述通信方法包括:终端设备接收来自网络设备的部分带宽BWP配置信息,所述BWP配置信息用于指示所述终端设备配置第一BWP;所述终端设备使用第一BWP接收来自所述网络设备的第一下行信息;所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用第二BWP接收来自所述网络设备的第二下行信息,其中,所述第二BWP小于所述第一BWP,所述第一目标时段包括所述网络设备没有发送所述终端设备的下行数据的时段,且所述第一目标时段之前所述网络设备没有向所述终端设备发送第一切换指示信息,所述第一切换指示信息用于指示所述终端设备切换所述第一BWP。
本申请的通信方法中,因为终端设备在没有下行数据时,使用的BWP比网络设备为其配置的BWP小,所以可以能更节省终端的能耗。并且,终端设备是在没有接收到网络设备的BWP切换指示信息的情况下自主切换的,因此可以在节省终端能耗的同时还能降低信令开销。
可以理解,所述第一目标时段之前所述网络设备没有向所述终端设备发送BWP切换指示信息是指终端设备本次使用第一BWP开始至第一目标时段之前没有接收到BWP切换指示信息。
结合第九方面,在第一种可能的实现方式中,所述第二BWP包含以下一种或多种带宽:物理下行控制信道PDCCH的控制资源集CORESET所在的带宽、所述终端设备的服务小区的同步信号块SSB所在的带宽、跟踪参考信息TRS所在的带宽或信道状态信息CSI-参考信号RS所在的带宽。
该实现方式中,因为终端仅在包含PDCCH的CORESET所在的带宽、SSB所在的带宽、TRS所在的带宽和/或CSI-RS所在的带宽上接收信息,所以既能保证这些控制信息的接收,又可以节省终端的能耗。
结合第九方面,在第二种可能的实现方式中,所述第二BWP包含所述网络设备为所述终端设备配置的下行初始BWP。
也就是说,在没有下行数据的情况下,终端设备自主调整到下行初始BWP,在下行初始BWP上接收下行信息,因此可以节省终端的能耗。
结合第九方面或上述任意一种可能的实现方式,在第三种可能的实现方式中,所述第一目标时段包括所述网络设备没有发送以下一种或多种信息的时段:CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR或PDCCH。
也就是说,第一目标时段内没有CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH时,终端设备才从第一BWP切换至第二BWP,这样可以保证CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR或PDCCH的接收可靠性。
结合第三种可能的实现方式,在第四种可能的实现方式中,所述方法还包括:所述终端设备在第二目标时段使用所述第一BWP接收来自所述网络设备的下行信息,所述第二目标时段包括所述网络设备发送CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和PDCCH中一种或多种信息的时段,所述第二目标时段位于所述第一目标时段之后,且在所述第二 目标时段内没有所述终端设备的下行数据。

具体实施方式
下面将结合附图,对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统。例如:全球移动通讯(global system of mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(general packet radio service,GPRS)、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(universal mobile telecommunication system,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access,WiMAX)通信系统、5G通信系统或者5G新空口(new radio,NR)通信系统等。
本申请实施例中的终端设备也可以称为UE、移动台、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置等,其具体可以是WLAN中的站点(station,ST)、蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备、连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、未来5G网络中的移动台以及未来演进的PLMN网络中的终端设备等中的任意一种。
在本申请实施例中的网络设备可以是用于与终端通信的设备,具体可以是无线局域网(wireless local Area networks,WLAN)中的接入点(access point,AP)、全球移动通信系统(global system for mobile communication,GSM)或码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)中的基站收发信台(base transceiver station,BTS)、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access,WCDMA)中的基站(nodeB,NB)、LTE系统中的演进型基 站(evolutional node B,eNB)、中继站或接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备、未来5G网络中的接入网设备以及未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的接入网设备等中的任意一种。
可以理解的是,本申请实施例中的“多个”是指两个或两个以上,其它量词与之类似。“/”描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A/B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。
图1是可以应用本申请实施例的方法和装置的通信系统的示意性结构图。如图1所示,该通信系统中可以包含基站110和UE 120。
UE 120支持BWP技术,即UE 120可以通过BWP与基站110通信。其中,BWP是指一个载波(carrier)的一部分带宽。例如,一个带宽为100MHz的载波,指定其中的20MHz为一个BWP。
例如,UE 120所能支持的(射频和/或基带)带宽可以小于系统规定的最大载波带宽或不高于特定的频率带宽,系统规定的最大载波带宽也可以称为系统带宽。
UE使用小于系统带宽的BWP来与基站通信,可以降低UE的工作功耗,例如,小区带宽为200MHz的情况下,UE的BWP可以为100MHz。
UE使用的BWP可以由基站配置,但是基站配置的BWP通常都很大,并且,基站配置BWP需要额外的信令开销,为了节省信令开销,基站不会频繁变更UE的BWP,因此,UE始终按照基站配置的BWP进行通信依然需要UE浪费较大的功耗。
例如,当无数据调度的时候,UE实际上可以只检测物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)和其他导频信号,而不需要按照基站配置的BWP接收数据。这种情况下,UE仍然按照基站配置的BWP接收数据会浪费较多功耗。
但是,随着通信技术的发展,新的通信需求对终端在节能和待机时长方面提出了新的需求。因此,如何降低UE的功耗,称为亟待解决的技术问题。针对该技术问题,本申请提出了一种UE自主调整BWP的方法,以节省UE的功耗。
本申请中的UE自主调整BWP可以理解为UE根据当前通信需求,自己决定与网络设备进行通信的BWP,并使用该BWP与网络设备进行通信,而不是使用基站配置的BWP。
例如,在没有基站的BWP切换命令的情况下,在无数据调度的时隙(slot),终端自主缩小下行BWP(或者说使用比基站配置的BWP小的BWP来接收下行信息),并在有数据调度的时候恢复到网络设备配置的BWP。在UE使用自主调整BWP接收信息的状态下,UE进行通信的相关计算操作和上报操作可以基于在自主调整的BWP内接收的信号来执行。
又如,UE可以根据自主调整的BWP内接收的导频信号进行信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)反馈。或者,在需要接收CSI反馈所基于的导频信号时,UE可以将下行BWP调整到网络设备配置的BWP。
再如,UE可以在非连续数据接收(discontinuous reception,DRX)的提前唤醒阶段,自主缩小下行BWP。
图2为本申请一个实施例的通信方法的示意性流程图。如图2所示,该通信方法可以包含S210、S220和S230。
S210,终端设备接收来自网络设备的BWP配置信息,所述BWP配置信息用于指示 所述终端设备配置第一BWP。
本实施例中的终端设备的一种示例为图1中的UE 120,网络设备的一种示例为图1中的基站110。
其中,第一BWP可以包括:终端设备接入网络设备时,网络设备为终端设备配置的初始(initial)BWP,该初始BWP可以包括上行初始BWP,也可以包括下行BWP;终端设备接入网络设备之后,处于连接态时,网络设备为终端设备配置的一个或多个BWP。
可选地,第一BWP也可以包括网络设备为终端设备配置的默认(default)BWP。
S220,所述终端设备使用所述第一BWP上接收来自所述网络设备的第一下行信息。
可选地,网络设备可以为终端设备配置多个BWP,然后网络设备可以通过指示终端设备激活这多个BWP中的哪个BWP来接收下行信息。本实施例中,将终端设备上当前激活的BWP称为第一BWP。
因为当前终端设备上配置的BWP是激活的第一BWP,因此终端设备在第一BWP接收网络设备发送的下行信息,例如下行控制信息,其中下行控制信息中可以包含下行数据调度信息。可选地,下行数据调度信息可以携带与PDCCH上。本实施例中,将终端设备当前使用第一BWP接收的下行信息称为第一下行信息
S230,所述终端设备在第一目标时段使用第二BWP接收来自所述网络设备的第二下行信息,其中,所述第二BWP小于所述第一BWP,所述第一目标时段包括所述网络设备没有发送所述终端设备的下行数据的时段,且所述第一目标时段之前所述网络设备没有向所述终端设备发送第一切换指示信息,所述第一切换指示信息用于指示所述终端设备切换所述第一BWP。
作为一种示例,网络设备在第一BWP上可以发送一个或多个终端设备的下行数据调度信息,终端设备处于连接态时,可以在第一BWP上检测属于自己的下行数据调度信息,并根据检测结果确定网络设备是否调度了自己的下行数据。
例如,终端设备在第一BWP上进行盲检,以检测是否有属于自己的下行数据的调度信息,若终端设备在第一BWP上没有检测到属于自己的下行数据调度信息,则终端设备可以确定第一BWP上的第一下行数据调度信息并没有调度自己的下行数据;若终端设备在第一BWP上检测到属于自己的下行数据调度信息,但该下行数据调度信息没有调度下行数据时,则终端设备可以确定第一BWP上的第一下行数据调度信息并没有调度自己的下行数据。
若终端设备确定网络设备没有调度属于自己的下行数据,则终端设备在第一目标时段可以使用较小的第二BWP来接收网络设备发送的下行信息,为了方便描述,将该下行信息称为第二下行信息。
本实施例中,第一目标时段可以是终端设备与网络设备接下来的通信过程中的某一个时隙。
本实施例中,因为终端设备在本次使用第一BWP之后,并没有接收到网络设备发送的BWP切换指示信息,因此,第二BWP为终端设备自主确定的或自主调整的BWP。
本实施例中,将终端设备使用比第一BWP小的第二BWP接收下行信息的行为称为终端设备自主缩小BWP。
本实施例中,网络设备为终端设备确定的BWP可以理解为:如果由网络设备使用现 有方法为终端设备确定第一目标时段的BWP时,网络设备能够为终端设备确定的BWP。
本实施例中,第二BWP为终端自主确定或者说自主调整的BWP,可以理解为第二BWP不是基站为终端配置的BWP。
本实施例中,因为第二BWP小于基站为UE配置的第一BWP,且基站并没有向终端设备发送BWP切换指令,所以,UE使用第二BWP来与基站通信,与UE使用第一BWP来与基站通信相比,在不消耗更多信令的情况下,可以减少UE更多的功耗。
本实施例的一种实现方式中,如图3所示,在基站向UE配置BWP(即第一BWP)之后,UE可以使用该第一BWP接收信息;在基站长期无数据调度的情况下,UE自主调整BWP,并使用调整后的BWP(即第二BWP)接收信息。
如图3所示,在基站有数据调度的情况下,UE又可以恢复使用基站配置的BWP(即第一BWP)来接收信息。
例如,终端设备使用第二BWP接收到的第二下行数据调度信息调度所述终端设备在第二目标时段的下行数据时,所述终端设备可以在所述第二目标时段使用所述第一BWP接收所述终端设备的第二下行信息。
本实施例中,终端设备自主缩小下行BWP时,作为一种示例,终端设备可以将BWP缩小到第二BWP仅包含PDCCH的控制资源集(CORESET)所在的带宽、终端设备的服务小区的同步信号块(synchronization signal and PBCH block,SSB)所在的带宽、跟踪参考信号(tracking reference signal,TRS)所在的带宽和CSI-参考信号(reference signal,RS)所在的带宽中一种或多种带宽,其中,PBCH是物理广播信道(physical broadcast channel)的简称。一旦有下行数据调度,则终端设备可以立刻恢复到基站配置的BWP(即第一BWP),并锁定一段时间不开启终端设备自主调整下行BWP的功能。
终端设备处于使用自主调整的BWP(即第二BWP)接收下行信号的状态时,可选地,终端设备所进行的所有计算处理和上报处理可以全部基于终端设备使用自主调整的第二BWP接收到的信号来执行。
终端设备自主缩小BWP之后,作为一种示例,若缩小后的第二BWP包含CSI-RS所在带宽,终端设备可以基于在第二BWP中接收到的导频信号进行CSI反馈。或者可以说,第一目标时段内包含CSI-RS时,或第一目标时段包括网络设备发送CSI-RS的时段时,所述终端设备向所述网络设备发送所述终端设备在所述第二BWP内接收到的CSI-RS的CSI反馈信息。
终端设备自主缩小BWP之后,作为另一种示例,每当需要接收进行CSI反馈所基于的导频信号时,终端设备将下行BWP调整到基站配置的BWP(即第一BWP)。或者可以说,所述终端设备在所述第一目标时段之后的第二目标时段使用所述第一BWP接收来自所述网络设备的下行信息,所述第二目标时段包括所述网络设备发送CSI-RS的时段。
本实施例中,终端设备可以自主缩小上行BWP,例如,将上行BWP缩小到小于网络设备为其配置的上行BWP。
作为一种示例,终端设备可以使得调整后的上行BWP(即第二BWP)仅包含第一目标时间段中终端设备将发送的信号所占的带宽。例如,终端设备可以在每个时隙自主调整上行BWP,使得每个时隙的上行BWP可以仅包含该时隙中终端设备将发送的信号所占的带宽。
以基站配置的上行BWP(即第一BWP)包含273个资源块(resource block,RB)为例,若当前时隙中实现需要发送的信号只占用20个RB,则终端设备可以按照20个RB生成基带信号,并发送该基带信号,从而可以节省大量带宽,进而节省大量功耗。
本实施例的一些实现方式中,终端进行BWP切换的时间可以预先配置好。例如,可以预先约定在PDCCH符号之后开始将下行BWP切换至第一BWP或切换至第二BWP。例如,终端设备可以在PDCCH符号之后开始使用第一BWP接收下行信号。
或者可以说,所述第一下行信息包括PDCCH,其中,所述第一目标时段内的第一个符号位于所述第一下行信息所包括的PDCCH占用的符号之后。该实现方式可以使得终端设备在切换BWP之后的射频稳定时间不影响PDCCH的接收,从而可以保证终端设备的通信的可靠性。
本实施例的另一些实现方式中,BWP切换的时间(例如第一目标时间段的起始时间)将位于终端设备的服务小区的SSB的传输时间内,或位于测量使用的SMTC的传输时间内,或者位于TRS突发时间内的情况下,若终端设备是将第一BWP切换为第二BWP,则终端设备可以放弃该次切换,即终端设备可以不执行该次切换;反之,若终端设备是将第二BWP切换为第一BWP,则终端设备可以执行该次切换。其中,SMTC为SSB-MTC(measurement timing configurations)的缩写。
或者可以说,所述第一目标时段内的第一个时隙不包括以下一种或多种时隙:所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB所在的时隙,所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB的测量定时配置信息所在的时隙,TRS所在的时隙。
换句话说,所述第一目标时段内的第一个时隙不包括所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB所在的时隙,所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB的测量定时配置信息所在的时隙,TRS所在的时隙中一种或多种时隙时,所述终端设备才从第一BWP切换至第二BWP。
该实现方式中,BWP切换的时间位于终端设备的服务小区的SSB的传输时间内的一种示例为:BWP切换的时间所在的时隙为SSB的4个符号所在的任意时隙。BWP切换的时间位于TRS突发时间(burst)内的一种示例为:BWP切换的时间所在的时隙为TRS的4个符号所在的实现或者为这4个符号之间任意一个符号所在的时隙。
本实施例的又一些实现方式中,若终端设备在BWP切换的时间接收到导频信号,例如终端设备在BWP切换的时间所在的符号接收到导频信号,则终端设备可以丢弃该导频信号的测量结果。
或者可以说,所述第一目标时段包括所述网络设备发送CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和PDCCH中一种或多种信息的时段时,所述终端设备丢弃在所述第一目标时段接收到的所述一种或多种信息。
所述终端设备丢弃在所述第一目标时段接收到的所述一种或多种信息可以理解为终端设备本应该基于接收到的CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH执行相关操作的,但是因为CSI-RS、所述终端设备的服务小区的SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH是在较小的第二BWP上接收到的,可以不根据这些接收到的CSI-RS、SSB、TSR和/或PDCCH执行相关操作。
例如,若BWP切换在SMTC的传输时间内发生,则可以丢弃当前SMTC的无线资源管理(radio resource management,RRM)测量结果。又如,若BWP切换在TRS burst内 发生,则丢弃当前TRS burst的定时、频偏结果。再如,若BWP切换在CSI-RS所在的时隙发生,则丢弃当前时隙中的波束管理(beam management,BM)和CSI反馈的相关计算结果。
本实施例的一些实现方式中,可选地,在终端设备执行BWP切换之前,终端设备可以先计算第一BWP与第二BWP之间的带宽差。若该带宽差小于预设的门限值,则终端设备不执行该BWP切换,而是依然使用第二BWP进行通信。或者可以说,所述第一BWP与所述第二BWP之间的差值大于或等于预设的带宽阈值时,终端设备才从第一BWP切换至第二BWP。
本实施例的一些实现方式中,终端设备可以统计预设的单位时间内终端设备已执行的BWP切换的次数,若该次数超过预设的切换门限值,则终端设备可以不执行该BWP切换,而是依然可以使用第二BWP进行通信。
或者可以说,所述终端设备在所述第一目标时段使用所述第二BWP接收所述下行控制信息之前,所述终端设备在预设时段内改变BWP的次数小于或等于预设的次数阈值时,终端设备才从第一BWP切换至第二BWP。
下面介绍本实施例的通信方法在DRX场景下的应用。在DRX场景下,每个DRX由周期和开启接收的时间(OnDuration)。在OnDuration前,终端设备需要提前打开一段时间以执行定时频偏跟踪等动作,终端设备该提前打开的操作称为提前唤醒。
可选地,终端设备可以在该提前唤醒阶段从第一BWP切换至第二BWP。作为一种示例,这种场景下的第一BWP可以是网络设备配置的初始BWP。
在DRX的提前唤醒阶段,可以将终端设备的射频信号(radio frequency,RF)的BWP(即第二BWP带宽)设置为包含:终端设备的服务小区的SSB所占用的带宽,和/或,落在提前唤醒阶段的TRS和/或CSI-RS所占用的带宽。
在提前唤醒阶段,终端设备可以读取提前唤醒阶段的最后一个时隙,记作n1;读取OnDuration的第一个时隙,记作n2。若n2-n1大于或等于预设的阈值,则终端设备可以在提前唤醒阶段执行BWP切换,否则可以不执行BWP切换。
可选地,终端设备可以计算提前唤醒阶段的第二BWP与基站配置的第一BWP之间的带宽差,若该带宽差小于预设的门限值,则终端设备可以不进行BWP切换,即依然继续使用基站配置的BWP。

装置400可以用于执行图2所示方法中由终端设备执行的相关步骤或操作,例如通信模块420可以用于执行S210、S220和S230。处理模块410可以用于执行S210、S220和S230中终端设备的内部相关操作,例如确定终端设备是否需要从第一BWP切换至第二BWP。
在一些示例中,通信模块420可以包含发送模块;在另一些示例中,通信模块420可以包含接收模块;在又一些实施例中,通信模块420可以包含发送模块和接收模块。
