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“或”的关系。
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。无线通信系统包括远端终端11、网络侧设备12以及中继终端13。其中,远端终端11/中继终端13也可以称作终端设备或者用户终端(User Equipment,UE),远端终端11/中继终端13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(VUE)、行人终端(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)、5G网络架构(next generation system)中的5G基站(gNB)、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。
下面结合附图,通过具体的实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的基于中继终端的切换方法、装置、设备及存储介质进行详细地说明。
为了便于更好地理解本申请实施例,首先对Sidelink Relay进行描述。
图2为相关技术中L2 relay协议栈架构示意图,图2显示了远端终端通过中继终端与网络侧设备通信时(即基于中继承载进行通信时)使用的一种L2中继协议栈,。
中继终端和网络侧设备之间具有Uu PDCP协议栈,在该Uu PDCP协议栈中,将包含若干个用于远端终端的数据传输的无线承载(Radio Bearer,RB)。
在中继终端的Uu PDCP协议栈下面,有一个适配层(Adaptation Layer),如图2中的ADAPT,Adaptation Layer,是一个新的协议层,主要进行remote UE的业务复用,将多个remote UE的业务可以复用到一个Uu RB(Radio Bearer)中进行传输。
由于中继终端自身也有数据传输,因此该适配层需要区分中继终端和远端终端的数据,或者不同远端终端的数据。具体地,适配层逻辑实体需要区分数据是来自/去往远端终端还是中继终端的,以及数据属于哪个远端终端的哪个承载。在适配协议层的下方是面向Uu接口的无线链路控制层(Radio Link Control,RLC)、媒体接入控制协议层(Medium Access Control,MAC)和物理层(Physical,PHY)。另外,在PC5接口,即remote UE和relay UE之间,也可以有adaptation layer,用于进行业务复用。
在现有技术中,仅提出了adaptation layer的基本功能,并未给出adaptation layer如何进行不同remote UE的业务区分、UE ID内容如何确定以及UE ID如何分配的解决方案。因此adaptation layer目前是无法进行工作的。
图3为本申请实施例提供的远端终端业务识别方法的流程示意图之一,该方法的执行主体为中继终端relay UE,如图3所示,该方法包括以下步骤:
步骤300、接收第一远端终端发送的第一消息;可以理解的是,在远端终端remote UE与中继终端relay UE满足进行中继通信的条件下,remote UE通过PC5接口向relay UE发送第一消息。其中,PC5接口是remote UE与relay UE之间的Sidelink链路接口。所述第一消息是第一远端终端发送给对端通信设备的,经由relay UE转发给对端通信设备。
在本申请实施例中,第一消息的承载类型可以是信令无线承载(Signaling Radio Bearer,SRB)0、SRB1、SRB2或数据无线承载(Data Radio Bearer,DRB)。中继终端relay UE则通过PC5接口接收第一远端终端发送的第一消息。
需要说明的是,第一远端终端发送的第一消息中可以携带所述第一远端终端的终端标识和/或承载标识,也可以不携带所述第一远端终端的终端标识和/或承载标识。
步骤301、确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。
在本申请实施例中,relay UE可以将映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端的业务复用到同一大管道中进行传输,也可以将来自同一远端终端到不同对端通信设备的业务进行复用。relay UE接收到第一远端终端发送的第一消息后,需要确定通过哪条中继承载信道将该第一消息转发给对端通信设备。
可以理解的是,中继承载信道用于承载远端终端的端到端RB数据,中继承载信道可以是中继无线链路控制信道relayed RLC channel。
可选的,relay UE基于所述第一消息对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识或者所述第一消息的SRB0标识或者所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。
步骤302、通过所述中继承载信道向对端通信设备转发所述第一消息,所述第一消息的数据包头中携带所述第一远端终端的终端标识和/或承载标识;relay UE通过所述中继承载信道向对端通信设备转发所述第一消息,并在所述第一消息的数据包头中携带所述第一远端终端的终端标识UE ID和/或承载标识RB ID,网络侧设备根据该第一消息的数据包头中携带的UE ID和/或RB ID,可以区分来自不同remote UE的承载,从而实现了对远端终端remote UE的业务的识别。
可选的,在本申请实施例中,所述对端通信设备可以为网络侧设备、下一跳中继终端或第二远端终端。
本申请实施例的应用场景可以为U2N(UE to NW)场景,即Remote UE<–>relay UE<–>NW,其中可以多跳,即有多个串行relay UE,其中距离remote UE最近的一个relay UE记作access relay UE,与NW连接的relay UE记作根relay UE的场景中,当前relay UE与下一跳或者前一跳relay UE之间,根relay UE和NW之间,access relay UE与remote UE之间,如果需要进行承载复用,可以使用UE ID和/或RB ID来区分remote UE及承载。
本申请实施例的应用场景可以为U2U(UE to UE)场景,即Source remote UE<–>relay UE<–>Target remote UE,其中,可以多跳,即有多个串行relay UE,其中距离source remote UE最近的一个relay UE记作access relay UE,与target remote UE连接的relay UE记作根relay UE的场景中,当前relay UE与下一跳或者前一跳relay UE之间,根relay UE和target remote UE之间,access relay UE与source remote UE之间,如果需要进行承载复用,可以使用UE ID和/或RB ID来区分remote UE及承载。
在本申请实施例中,在进行remote UE的业务复用过程中对不同remote UE的业务进行区分,能够使中继终端将不同远端终端的不同业务复用在同一个传输通道中传输,提高了传输的效率,并且同时提供远端终端业务在端到端传输中的可识别性,从而保障了远端终端业务的服务质量,并考虑整体效率,在提升用户体验的同时保障了系统效率。
可选的,所述确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道,包括:
基于所述第一消息对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识或者所述第一消息的SRB0标识或者所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识,确定所述第一消息的类型;
在所述第一消息的类型为SRB0消息的情况下,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道为第一缺省无线链路控制信道;或者,在所述第一消息的类型不是SRB0消息的情况下,基于无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道之间的映射关系,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道为与所述第一消息的类型具有映射关系的无线链路控制信道。
可以理解的是,relay UE首先基于所述第一消息对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识或者所述第一消息的SRB0标识或者所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识,确定所述第一消息的类型,进而基于所述第一消息的类型确定中继承载通道。
由于SRB0消息是无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)建立Setup请求 Request,relay UE需要有一个default relayed RLC channel配置,用于承载SRB0消息。因此,在本申请实施例中将第一消息的类型分为两类:SRB0消息和非SRB0消息。
为了实现承载复用,网络侧设备需要为SRB0消息配置第一缺省无线链路控制信道。其中,所述第一缺省无线链路控制信道用于承载SRB0消息。网络侧设备还需要为其他非SRB0消息配置映射关系,所述映射关系具体为无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道之间的映射关系。
在所述第一消息的类型为SRB0消息的情况下,relay UE确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道为第一缺省无线链路控制信道。
在所述第一消息的类型不是SRB0消息的情况下,relay UE基于无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道之间的映射关系,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道为与所述第一消息的类型具有映射关系的无线链路控制信道。
在一个实施例中,relay UE基于所述第一消息的对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识,确定所述第一消息的类型,进而基于所述第一消息的类型确定中继承载通道。
在PC5接口上的数据区分可以采取如下方式:将不同的Uu RB和PC5 RB之间一一映射,以进行识别和区分。例如PC5接口上逻辑信道0-3是现有的PC5signling,逻辑信道4和5为legacy PC5业务,逻辑信道10承载remote UE Uu SRB0,逻辑信道11承载remote UE Uu SRB1,逻辑信道12承载remote UE Uu SRB2,逻辑信道14承载remote UE Uu DRB1,逻辑信道15承载remote UE Uu DRB2,等等。
图4为本申请实施例提供的两个UE同时通过一个relay UE连接到网络的示意图。如图4所示,在PC5接口,每个remote UE和relay UE之间可能有legacy的PC5SRBs,PC5DRBs,RLC channels for Uu SRBs和RLC channels for Uu DRBs等。每一个类型的承载,都可以是一个独立的管道,便于relay UE进行数据区分。
例如,Remote UE1与relay UE之间的逻辑信道如下划分:逻辑信道0-3:分别对应PC5 SRB0,SRB1,SRB2和SRB3,这是现有的PC5承载类型;逻辑信道4-14:分别对应PC5 DRB1到DRB11;逻辑信道15:为默认的或者配置的relayed RLC channel用于承载remote UE1的Uu SRB0;逻辑信道16-17:为配置的relayed RLC channel用于承载remote UE1的Uu SRB1和SRB2;逻辑信道18-31:为配置的relayed RLC channel用于承载remote UE1的Uu DRB1到DRB14;32-63的区间用于Uu接口,扩展的逻辑信道。
Relay UE接收到上述PC5承载内容,对PC5接口的承载,直接按照现有流程处理。对于RLC channel来的数据,需要向网络侧设备进行转发。
relay UE接收到第一消息后,基于所述第一消息的对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识,可以确定第一消息的类型,例如,若relay UE接收到的第一消息对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识为15时,因为逻辑信道15用于承载Uu SRB0,进而可以确定此时第一消息的类型为SRB0消息。
在一个实施例中,relay UE基于所述第一消息的SRB0标识,确定所述第一消息的类型,进而确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。例如,第一消息的SRB0标识为0,说明第一消息不是SRB0消息,则可以基于网络侧配置的无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道RLC channel之间的映射关系,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。若第一消息的SRB0标识为1,说明第一消息是SRB0消息,则将第一缺省无线链路控制信道default relayed RLC channel作为第一消息的中继承载信道。
可选的,relay UE基于所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识,确定所述第一消息的类型,进而确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。其中,所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识是指该第一远端终端与网络侧通信的的RB ID,例如remote UE Uu SRB0,其RB ID=0,remote UE SRB1,其RB ID=1,remote UE SRB2,其RB ID=2,其余的DRB,通过端到端的RRC过程进行配置并分配RB ID。例如,所述第一远端终端的端到端承载标识为1,则所述第一消息的类型为SRB1消息,relay UE基于网络侧配置的无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道RLC channel之间的映射关系,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道,还包括:
在所述第一消息的类型不是SRB0消息,并且,与所述第一消息的类型具有映射关系的无线链路控制信道不存在的情况下,确定用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道为网络侧配置的第二缺省无线链路控制信道。
在某些情形下,网络侧并未配置所述第一消息的类型与无线链路控制信道的映射关系,则将第二缺省无线链路控制信道作为用于转发所述第一消息的中继承载信道。其中,所述第二缺省无线链路控制信道用于承载没有配置映射关系的远端终端的无线承载数据。
所述第二缺省无线链路控制信道与所述第一缺省中继无线链路控制信道相同或不同。
在本申请实施例中,基于远端终端发送的第一消息对应的PC5接口的逻辑信道标识或者SRB0标识或者端到端承载标识,确定中继承载通信道,实现了将不同远端终端的不同业务复用在同一个传输通道中传输,提高了传输的效率。
可选的,所述终端标识包括以下各项中的一项:PC5链路层2标识PC5 link L2 ID;
所述PC5 link L2 ID的部分比特位;远端终端在中继终端内的唯一索引;远端终端在网络侧设备内的唯一索引。
在本申请实施例中,终端标识UE ID可以使用终端标识的PC5链路层2标识PC5 link L2 ID,PC5 link L2 ID是remote UE和relay UE在PC5接口进行通信时使用的L2 ID,长度为24bit。
由于PC5 link L2 ID是现有PC5通信使用的ID,能确保在一定范围内能唯一确定UE身份,使用较为便利。但是缺点是开销较大,每个UE都需要使用24bit进行标识和区分。
为了节省开销,也可以将24bit L2 ID进行截短,例如取其中低位的16bit,但节省开销的代价是有可能发生UE ID重复的情况。
UE ID的主要目的是区分链接到同一个relay UE的不同remote UE,或者,区分映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的不同remote UE,因此,还可以考虑使用其他的定义和分配的方式,以获得较小的UE ID长度,从而节省开销,提高资源利用率。
在一些可选的实施例中,终端标识也可以是远端终端在中继终端内的唯一索引,即也可以是中继终端为远端终端分配的唯一索引。
可选的,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:为连接到所述中继终端的每个远端终端分配终端标识索引;或者,为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端分配终端标识索引。
为了降低开销,在一个实施例中,UE ID定义为所有连接到同一个relay UE的remote UE的标号/索引index。中继终端relay UE为连接到该relay UE的每个远端终端分配终端标识索引,一个远端终端对应一个唯一的终端标识索引。
以U2N架构为例,一个relay UE由于其处理能力有限,同时能够服务的UE数量将会有一个上限,例如将这个上限定为N,则通过这个relay UE与网络进行通信的remote UE的标号index可以在区间[0,N-1]内,每个标号唯一标识一个remote UE。在relay UE内部,存储remote UE index和真正的L2 ID之间的对应关系,进而就可以进行正确的通信。对于NW,则需要存储RRC信令里携带的UE身份和remote UE index之间的映射关系,以进行正确的UE数据的收发和处理。
可选的,在一个实施例中,UE ID定义为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的remote UE的索引。即中继终端relay UE为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端分配终端标识索引。
可选的,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:通过无线资源控制RRC消息或UP过程,向所述终端标识索引对应的远端终端的对端通信设备发送所述终端标识索引。
中继终端relay UE为远端终端分配了终端标识索引后,通过无线资源控制RRC消息或UP过程,向所述终端标识索引对应的远端终端的对端通信设备发送所述终端标识索引。
举例来说,当第一个remote UE连接到一个relay UE时,relay UE可以给它分配UE index=0,并用UE index=0和RB ID将该remote UE的SRB0消息RRC Setup request发送给网络,网络侧设备接收到之后将setup消息里的UE身份和relay UE下的UE index=0进行关联,那么后 续发送给这个UE的所有下行消息和下行数据都使用UE index=0和对应的RB ID进行区分,并在中继承载通道里发送给relay UE。Relay UE接收到之后,也可以通过UE index=0识别到对应的remote UE,使用remote UE L2 ID进行PC5通信将数据发送给正确的remote UE。UE index由relay UE分配并通知NW。
在一些可选的实施例中,终端标识也可以是网络侧设备为远端终端分配的唯一索引。
所有连接到relay UE的remote UE由于他们的第一条消息为SRB0消息时,网络并没有任何这个remote UE的先验信息,因此可以采取一个特殊的Uu管道,这个Uu RLC channel并不携带任何remote UE ID和RB ID信息,即没有adaptation layer header,所有remote UE的SRB0消息都放在这里传输,不用区分。NW接收到之后,解读消息确定UE身份,再给该UE分配一个relay UE内唯一的UE index。
有如下两种方式通知relay UE网络侧为remote UE分配的终端标识索引index。
可选的,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:接收网络侧设备发送的无线资源控制RRC消息,所述RRC消息携带网络侧设备为发送了SRB0消息的远端终端分配的终端标识索引。
可选的,网络侧设备通过和relay UE之间的RRC消息,告知relay UE给这个remote UE分配了index,其中在所述RRC消息里区分remote UE,就可以采取使用RRC setup request(即SRB0消息)的部分内容,例如其中的40bit来标识remote UE,由于RRC setup request消息里是含有UE身份的,网络侧通过复制全部或者部分该内容,来指示UE,对于relay UE来说,需要将为remote UE转发的RRC setup request消息进行备份缓存,一旦relay UE接收到配置消息,通过对比,即可得知是对哪个remote UE分配了Index,后续将remote UE的L2 ID和index关联进行存储,以进行后续中转数据传输。
可选的,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:接收网络侧设备发送的控制协议数据单元/第一数据包,所述控制协议数据单元/第一数据包携带了发送了SRB0消息的远端终端的身份信息和所述网络侧设备为所述发送了SRB0消息的远端终端分配的终端标识索引;
根据所述身份信息,确定所述终端标识索引对应的远端终端。
网络侧设备通过用户面(User Plane,UP)过程告知relay UE关于index的分配,具体方式是使用UP的控制协议数据单元control PDU,携带index和setup request消息里的remote UE身份信息,relay UE读到之后,可以获知网络侧设备给remote UE分配了对应的index。
可选的,网络侧设备发送第一数据包,所述第一数据包中携带新分配的UE index和remote UE身份信息,relay UE解读之后,也可以建立正确的remote UE和index之间的关联,以进行后续中转数据传输。
在建立好remote UE的对应index之后,后续的收发包就可以用这个index对remote UE的数据进行标识,便于正确理解数据的归属。一般来说,一个relay UE下连接的remote UE个数不会太多,例如32或者16个,因此在此种方式中用于区分remote UE的index只需要几个比特,不超过一个字节,因此大大节省了开销。
需要说明的是,在U2U的架构中,也可以采取类似的方式,由relay UE为每个连接到它的remote UE分配一个唯一的index,以标识不同的remote UE。分配的方法,可以采取relay UE和remote UE之间的PC5 RRC告知。
可选的,所述承载标识包括以下各项中的一项:端到端承载标识;映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的远端终端所对应的承载的标号。
在一些可选的实施例中,承载标识RB ID可以直接使用remote UE跟NW通信的端到端的RB ID,例如remote UE Uu SRB0,其RB ID=0,remote UE SRB1,其RB ID=1,remote UE SRB2,其RB ID=2,其余的DRB,通过端到端的RRC过程进行配置并分配RB ID。
在一些可选的实施例中,承载标识RB ID也可以是映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的远端终端所对应的承载标号。
由于现有的端到端的承载个数是最大支持32个,即RB ID如果标识端到端承载需要5bit。而对于一个remote UE内部能够复用到同一个大传输管道的RB个数并没有很多,需要QoS相 同或者接近,例如最多4个RB,那么RB ID的长度就可以减少到2bit。相当于需要通知RB的映射关系,映射举例说明如下表1所示。
表1 RB映射关系
映射之前 映射之后
RB 1 in Remote UE 1 Channel 1,remote UE1,RB=0
RB 2 in Remote UE 1 Channel 1,remote UE1,RB=1
RB 3 in Remote UE 1 Channel 1,remote UE1,RB=2
RB 4 in Remote UE 1 Channel 2,remote UE1,RB=0
RB 5 in Remote UE 1 Channel 2,remote UE1,RB=1
相当于需要通知的是,自由的32bit的传统端到端RB ID,映射到:
RLC channel x的index y。决策方式是通过QoS相同或者相近的原则,选择对应的RLC channel,然后看看这个remote UE是否有其它RB映射到这个RLC channel,对映射到同一个RLC channel的RB在进行一次小组内排序即可。
建立和通知映射的方式如下:对于信令无线承载来说,由于Uu SRB(用于U2N场景)和PC5SRB(用于U2U场景)个数有限且作用比较明确,每个remote UE必须有这些SRB,因此可以采取固定映射的方式,默认或者提前配置好SRB映射到default RLC channel n,且RB index也都固定好。
对于DRB来说,因为DRB具有突发性和多样性特点,因此只有业务到达之后,才通过Uu RRC(用于U2N场景)由基站配置给relay UE,或者PC5 RRC(用于U2U场景)由relay UE配置给两端的remote UE;配置好后,即可以进行正常的通信。
可选的,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端分配承载标号。
可以理解的是,relay UE为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端分配承载标号,并通过PC5 RRC消息配置给相应的remote UE。例如,Remote UE 1和relay UE之间,可以将不同的target UE 2,target UE 3,target UE 4的数据进行复用,分配的承载标号可以分别对应于:UE 1和UE 2之间的端到端承载,UE 1和UE 3之间的端到端承载,UE1和UE 4之间的端到端承载。例如,在relay UE和target UE2之间,有不同的:
source UE 1,source UE 5,source UE 6,因此分配的承载标号可以分别对应于:UE 1和UE2之间的端到端承载,UE 5和UE2之间的端到端承载,UE 6和UE2之间的端到端承载。
U2N场景类似,在此不再赘述。
在本申请实施例中,中继终端或网络侧设备为remote UE分配终端标识索引和/或承载标号,在进行remote UE的业务复用过程中对不同remote UE的业务进行区分,使中继终端将不同远端终端的不同业务复用在同一个传输通道中传输,提高了传输的效率,并且资源开销较小。
可选的,在上述实施例的基础上,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:接收所述对端通信设备发送的第二消息;基于所述第二消息的数据包头中携带的终端标识和/或承载标识,将所述第二消息转发给相应的远端终端。
可以理解的是,relay UE接收所述对端通信设备发送的第二消息,例如,若第一消息为RRC Setup request消息,则第二消息为RRC Setup消息。然后,基于所述第二消息的数据包头中携带的终端标识和/或承载标识,将所述第二消息转发给相应的远端终端。
可选的,在上述实施例的基础上,所述接收第一远端终端发送的第一消息之前,还包括:在第一远端终端满足建立中继通信的条件,且中继终端与所述第一远端终端之间的链路质量以及中继终端与第一通信设备之间的链路质量满足建立中继通信的条件的情况下,通过PC5接口与所述第一远端终端进行交互,确定所述中继终端具备中转所述第一远端终端业务的能力。例如remote UE处于小区边缘,RSRP低于一个网络配置的门限,不能直接跟NW进行通信,这时候需要经由relay UE进行中转它的数据到网络,此时第一终端满足建立中继通信的条件。
relay UE也需要满足一定的条件,中继终端与所述第一远端终端之间的链路质量以及中继终端与第一通信设备之间的链路质量满足建立中继通信的条件,才能确保后续通信正常进行。
在满足上述基本链路条件之后,remote UE和relay UE之间,需要通过PC5过程,交互中转业务信息,例如进行discovery过程,需要确保relay UE可以进行remote UE将要发起的业务的中转服务。
可选的,所述第一消息的适配层协议头中携带所述第一远端终端的终端标识和/或所述第一远端终端的承载标识。
需要说明的是,本申请中提到的UE ID和RB ID可以用于适配层adaptation layer,包含在adaptation layer header中。但并不限于此,所有需要进行数据复用的协议层都可以使用。
下面结合具体的应用场景来说明如何使用UE ID和RB ID来区分不同remote UE的承载。
在U2N架构中,以L2 Remote UE<–>relay UE<–>NW场景为例,说明如何使用UE ID和RB ID来区分不同remote UE的承载,从而进行正常的relay通信。
首先,关于UE ID和RB ID的含义和取值,本例中采取如下原则:UE ID为PC5 link L2 ID,RB ID为端到端承载标识。下面给出remote UE建立L2 relay U2N通信,以及在relay和NW之间如何进行承载复用的过程:
步骤a,remote UE满足建立L2 relay U2N通信的条件,找到一个合适的relay UE。例如remote UE处于小区边缘,RSRP低于一个网络配置的门限,不能直接跟NW进行通信,这时候需要经由relay UE进行中转它的数据到网络。
relay UE也需要满足一定的条件,例如relay UE自己本身到NW的链路条件足够好,RSRP高于一个网络配置的门限,可选的,relay UE到NW的链路条件不能太好,即同时满足RSRP低于一个网络配置的门限,这样做的好处是避免小区中心的UE做relay UE干扰过大。
Remote UE和relay UE之间的PC5的链路质量也需要满足一定的门限,即PC5 RSRP(Reference Signal Receiving Power,参考信号接收功率)高于门限,才能确保后续通信正常进行。
在满足上述基本链路条件之后,remote UE和relay UE之间,需要通过PC5过程,交互中转业务信息,例如进行discovery过程,需要确保relay UE可以进行remote UE将要发起的业务的中转服务。
步骤b:relay UE在决定给remote UE进行业务中转服务之后,需要在自己的Uu接口进行一定的准备工作,例如需要有一个default relayed RLC channel配置,至少用于承载没有配置映射关系的remote UE的端到端RB数据。
举例说明,如果这个relay UE之前没有进入Connected状态,则为了中转数据,需要先进入Connected状态,并告知网络侧请求为其它remote UE进行数据中转,网络侧需要给这个relay UE配置一个default relayed RLC channel,它的特点是,配置为RLC AM(Acknowledge Mode)或者UM(UnAcknowledge Mode),具有adaptation layer且有header,adaptation layer header里包含UE ID和RB ID,且没有任何映射关系的remote UE数据默认映射到这一条RLC channel上。
如果这个relay UE已经在Connected状态,且它还有自己的Uu数据传输,或者还有其它remote UE的中转数据传输,则此时很可能default relayed RLC channel已经存在,可以承载没有任何映射关系的remote UE数据。
举个例子:relay UE的Uu口逻辑信道号:0为自己的SRB0消息,1为自己的SRB1消息,2为自己的SRB2消息,4为自己的第一条DRB,5为自己的第二条DRB,10为default relayed RLC channel,用于承载没有映射关系的relay数据,11-13为其它relayed RLC channel,承载配置了映射关系的其它remote UE的不同QoS的数据。
步骤c:remote UE发送第一条Uu消息——RRC Setup Request,这个消息是发送给NW的,但需要先发送给relay UE并由其中转。Remote UE通过PC5接口将第一条Uu消息发送给relay UE;Relay UE接收到第一条消息之后,使用步骤b中得到的自己的default relayed RLC channel来发送这个第一条消息,其中该数据包的adaptation header里携带remote UE L2 ID以及 RB ID,由于第一条消息为SRB0消息,则RB ID=0。
步骤d:网络侧通过default relayed RLC channel接收relay发来的数据,进行处理,并对其进行响应,发送RRC Setup消息(携带L2 ID和RB ID=0);其中,根据UE ID可以知道这是一个新的remote UE(因为未缓存该UE的配置),通过RB ID=0,可以知道是remote UE的SRB0消息,解读消息,并进行正常处理,响应生成RRC Setup消息。对这个RRC Setup消息,网络侧在下行的default relayed RLC channel上进行发送,将adaptation header的UE ID填写接收到的L2 ID,RB ID=0,表明仍旧是SRB0进行发送。
由于RRC Setup消息,一般是建立SRB1,那么网络侧也需要对这个remote UE的SRB1在Uu接口上如何映射进行配置,并将配置的映射关系发送给relay UE,即可以使用现有的一个relayed RLC channel或者建立一个新的relayed RLC channel将这个remote UE的SRB1映射上去,其中remote UE使用UE ID=L2 ID进行标识。
步骤e:relay UE接收到RRC setup消息,从adaptation header里读取的UE ID,可以找到对应的remote UE,则在PC5接口上将RRC Setup消息转发给相应的remote UE。
步骤f:remote UE接收到RRC Setup消息,则按照消息中的配置建立SRB1,并发送后续的RRC Setup complete消息在新建立的SRB1上。
后续步骤不再赘述,SRB1在relay UE Uu的relayed RLC channel mapping和配置已经提前准备好,后续relay UE使用remote UE对应的L2 ID和RB ID=1,即可告知NW这是该remote UE的SRB1消息,下行同理。
并且针对remote UE的SRB2和DRB,也是类似的,通过SRB1管道即RRC信令过程,先配置SRB2和DRB的relay Uu RLC channel mapping,再将配置好的SRB2和DRB的relay Uu RLC channel mapping发送给remote UE。
建立好之后relay和NW之间,就可以在一个relay Uu RLC channel中使用L2 ID和端到端RB ID,来明确的区分不同remote UE和具体承载内容(SRB0/1/2/DRB)。
下面介绍U2U场景下如何使用UE ID和RB ID来区分不同remote UE的承载。
在U2U架构中,以L2 Source remote UE<–>relay UE<–>Target remote UE场景为例,说明如何使用UE ID和RB ID来区分不同remote UE的承载,从而进行正常的relay通信。
首先,关于UE ID和RB ID的含义和取值,本例中采取如下原则:UE ID为PC5 link L2 ID,RB ID为端到端承载标识。
在relay UE和Target remote UE(简称第二跳)之间,relay UE可以把多个source remote UE(因为他们的target remote UE是同一个UE)的数据进行复用,以降低第二跳可能出现的承载个数:每个source remote UE仍旧以各自的L2 ID来进行区分,这个L2 ID是需要能够被target remote UE识别的,例如在discovery过程中,交互了彼此的L2 ID;这里使用的L2 ID可以与source remote UE与relay UE之间PC5通信时使用的L2 ID是相同的,也可以是不同的。如果不同,意味着source remote UE至少有两个L2 ID,其中一个用于与relay UE之间进行PC5传输,另一个L2 ID用于source remote UE和target remote UE端到端通信时标识自己,如果是两个L2 ID,则relay UE需要存储两个L2 ID的对应关系,以便于在不同的场景进行使用,例如relay UE在PC5接口通过第一个L2 ID接收到source remote UE的数据,需要通过第一个L2 ID,找到对应的第二个L2 ID,放到adaptation layer header里用于在第二跳标识source remote UE;并携带对应的RB ID,以标识是哪个source remote UE的哪个承载,这里RB ID仍使用source remote UE和target remote UE之间的端到端的RB ID,例如SRB 0-3对应RB 0-3,其余DRB由source和target之间通过RRC信令过程进行建立并分配RB ID之后,再进行使用。
在Source remote UE和relay UE(简称第一跳)之间,relay UE可以把同一个source remote UE到不同的target remote UE的数据进行复用,以降低第一跳可能出现的承载个数:每个target remote UE仍旧以各自的L2 ID来进行区分,这个L2 ID是需要能够被source remote UE识别的,例如在discovery过程中,交互了彼此的L2 ID;这里使用的L2 ID可以与target remote UE与relay UE之间PC5通信时使用的L2 ID是相同的,也可以是不同的,如果不同,意味着target  remote UE至少有两个L2 ID,其中一个用于与relay UE之间进行PC5传输,另一个L2 ID用于target remote UE和source remote UE端到端通信时标识自己,如果是两个L2 ID,则relay UE需要存储两个L2 ID的对应关系,以便于在不同的场景进行使用;并携带对应的RB ID,以标识是哪个source remote UE的哪个承载,原理同上;
可选的,为了进一步降低复杂度并在第一跳和第二跳拥有相同的adaptation layer数据包格式,也可以:在第一跳同时携带source remote UE L2 ID和target remote UE L2 ID,前者标识不同的source UE,后者标识不同的target UE,并且后者还可以在多跳网络中起到路由作用;同样在UE ID之外,需要RB ID,区分不同承载,原理同上。

在本申请实施例中,在进行remote UE的业务复用过程中对不同remote UE的业务进行区分,能够使中继终端将不同远端终端的不同业务复用在同一个传输通道中传输,提高了传输的效率,并且同时提供远端终端业务在端到端传输中的可识别性,从而保障了远端终端业务的服务质量,并考虑整体效率,在提升用户体验的同时保障了系统效率。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述终端标识包括以下各项中的一项:PC5链路层2标识PC5 link L2 ID或所述PC5 link L2 ID的部分比特位;远端终端在中继终端内的唯一索引;远端终端在网络侧设备内的唯一索引。关于终端标识的相关内容可以参考前述实施例中的有关描述,在此不再赘述。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述承载标识包括以下各项中的一项:远端终端的端到端承载标识;映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的远端终端所对应的承载的标号。关于承载标识的相关内容可以参考前述实施例中的有关描述,在此不再赘述。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:向中继终端发送无线承载的配置信息;其中,所述无线承载的配置信息携带所述无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道之间的映射关系。
为了实现承载复用,网络侧设备需要为不同类型的无线承载数据配置相应的无线链路控制信道。例如,为SRB0消息配置default relayed RLC channel,为非SRB0消息配置对应的RLC channel。
可选的,网络侧设备向中继终端发送无线承载的配置信息;其中,所述无线承载的配置信息携带所述无线承载数据的类型与无线链路控制信道之间的映射关系。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述第一消息的适配层协议头中携带第一远端终端的终端标识和/或第一远端终端的承载标识。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:接收中继终端转发的SRB0消息,确定发送所述SRB0消息的远端终端的身份信息;为发送所述SRB0消息的远端终端分配终端标识索引,并通过无线资源控制RRC消息或UP过程,将所述终端标识索引发送给中继终端。
可选的,终端标识也可以是网络侧设备为远端终端分配的唯一索引。
网络接收中继终端转发的SRB0消息,对所述SRB0消息进行解读,确定发送所述SRB0消息的远端终端的身份信息。
然后,为发送所述SRB0消息的远端终端分配终端标识索引,并通过无线资源控制RRC消息或UP过程,将所述终端标识索引发送给中继终端。
可选的,所述通过无线资源控制RRC消息或UP过程,将所述终端标识索引发送给中继终端,包括:向所述中继终端发送RRC消息,所述RRC消息携带所述终端标识索引;或者,通过 UP过程向所述中继终端发送控制协议数据单元/第一数据包,所述控制协议数据单元/第一数据包携带了发送所述SRB0消息的远端终端的身份信息和所述发送了SRB0消息的远端终端对应的终端标识索引。

在本申请实施例中,提供另一种可行的用于UE ID定义的方式,使得UE ID的长度可以位于完整L2 ID 24bit和relay内唯一的index长度之间,给remote UE分配cell内唯一的标识,一般为2个字节长度,以区分不同的remote UE。
由于U2N场景中,remote UE和relay UE都处于连接态位于网络控制下,因此网络侧设备可以为每个remote UE分配一个自己管辖范围内的唯一index,用于区分和标识。网络侧设备配置index的方式,可以通过控制面(Control Plane,CP)过程或者用户面UP过程,通过setup request的remote UE身份标识和configured index的各种通知方式,建立remote UE和index的关联,用于后续通信。
在U2U场景中,由于relay UE要中转很多数据,也大概率处于连接态受网络的调度,因此可以从网络侧设备获得remote UE和index的关联,用于后续通信。如果relay UE并不处于连接态,或者是脱网状态,则index只能由relay UE自行决定。
在一些可选的实施例中,所述远端终端业务识别方法,还包括:为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个远端终端分配承载标号。
可以理解的是,在U2N场景下,网络侧设备为映射到同一个无线链路控制信道的每个remote UE分配承载标号,并通过RRC消息配置给relay UE。在U2U场景下,若relay UE处于连接态,则该relay UE会将每个remote UE的情况上报给网络,由网络统一分配每个remote UE对应的承载标号。
