附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例或现有技术中的技术方案，下面将对实施例或现有技术描述中所需要使用的附图作一简单地介绍，显而易见地，下面描述中的附图是本发明的一些实施例，对于本领域普通技术人员来讲，在不付出创造性劳动性的前提下，还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。
图1为本申请提供的系统架构图；
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图；
图3为本申请实施例提供的另一种通信方法的流程示意图；
图4为本申请实施例提供的一种通信过程示意图；
图5为本申请实施例提供的一种通信装置的结构示意图；
图6为本发明实施例提供的一种终端设备的结构示意图。
具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图，对本发明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发明一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本发明保护的范围。
图1为本申请提供的系统架构图，请参见图1，包括终端设备101、主基站102和辅基站103。终端设备101可以同时与主基站102和辅基站103建立连接并进行通信。
终端设备101中包括分组数据汇聚协议(packet data convergence protocol，PDCP)层、主小小区组(master cell group，MCG)无线链路控制(radio link control，RLC)层和辅小区组(Secondary Cell Group，SCG)RLC层。终端设备101可以通过PDCP层生成待发送的数据包。终端设备101可以通过MCG RLC层与主基站102进行通信，例如，终端设备可以通过MCG RLC层向主基站102发送数据包。终端设备101可以通过SCG RLC层与辅基站103进行通信，例如，终端设备101可以通过MCG RLC层向辅基站103发送数据包。
可选的，主基站可以为LTE基站，辅基站可以为NR基站。或者，主基站可以为NR基站，辅基站可以为LTE基站。
终端设备是一种具有无线收发功能的设备。终端设备可以部署在陆地上，包括室内或室外、手持、穿戴或车载；也可以部署在水面上(如轮船等)；还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。所述终端设备可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(virtual reality，VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality，AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、车载终端设备、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程医疗(remote medical)中的无线终端设备、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端设备、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端设备、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端设备、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端设备、可穿戴终端设备等。本申请实施例所涉及的终端设备还可以称为终端、用户设备(user equipment，UE)、接入终端设备、车载终端、工业控制终端、UE单元、UE站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端设备、移动设备、UE终端设备、无线通信设备、UE代理或UE装置等。终端设备也可以是固定的或者移动的。
在相关技术中，当终端设备与辅基站之间通信异常时，终端设备可以触发SCG失败(SCG failure)过程，终端设备执行该过程是会挂起(暂停)向辅基站发送数据包，以及重设(reset)SCG媒体接入控制(media access control，MAC)层。终端设备还向主基站发送SCG失败通知，例如，失败通知可以为SCG Failure Information(SCG失败信息)，并等待主基站的指示信息，主基站接收到SCG失败通知之后，主基站可以根据SCG失 败的类型(例如SCG侧无线链路异常、SCG侧随机接入失败、SCG目标小区同步失败)、以及测量结果等信息确定下一步动作，下一步动作可以包括：释放SCG、重新添加SCG、等待终端设备上报新的测量报告等。
在终端设备确定与辅基站之间通信异常之后，终端设备通过PDCP层可能继续生成新的数据(例如，协议数据单元(protocol data unit，PDU))，并通过MCG RLC向主基站发送该新的数据，以使主基站将该新的数据发送给接收端。然而，终端设备在确定与辅基站之间的通信异常时，终端设备可以已经通过PDCP层生成待发送至辅基站的数据，并且该数据未成功发送至辅基站，以使辅基站无法将该部分数据成功的发送给接收端，导致数据丢失，使得接收端接收到的数据是不连续的，进而影响终端设备的上层应用。
在本申请实施例中，为了解决上述技术问题，在终端设备确定与辅基站之间的通信异常时，终端设备可以先确定出未成功向辅基站发送的数据，并向主基站发送该部分数据，以使主基站处理该部分数据，进而避免数据丢失，提高通信的可靠性。
下面，通过具体实施例对本申请所示的方法进行说明。需要说明的是，下面几个实施例可以独立存在，也可以相互结合，对于相同或相似的内容，在不同的实施例中不再重复说明。
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图。请参见图2，该方法可以包括：
S201、终端设备确定终端设备与辅基站之间通信异常。
当终端设备确定出现如下几种情况中的任意一种时，终端设备确定与辅基站之间通信异常：SCG侧无线链路异常、SCG侧随机接入失败、SCG目标小区同步失败等。
S202、终端设备确定未向辅基站成功发送的第一数据。
终端设备可以通过如下方式确定第一数据：终端设备确定终端设备与辅基站之间的数据无线承载(data radio bearer，DRB)，并根据DRB的类型，确定未向辅基站成功发送的第一数据，DRB的类型为非确认模式(unacknowledged mode，UM)或者确认模式(acknowledged mode，AM)。
在DRB的类型为非确认模式时，终端设备通过DRB向基站(主基站或者辅基站)发送数据之后，基站不向终端设备发送响应。
在DRB的类型为非确认模式时，终端设备通过DRB向基站(主基站或者辅基站)发送数据之后，基站向终端设备发送响应。例如，若基站成功接收到终端设备发送的数据，则基站向终端设备发送确认响应(ACK)，若基站未成功接收到终端设备发送的数据，则基站向终端设备发送非确认响应(NACK)。
当DRB的类型不同时，终端设备确定未向辅基站成功发送的第一数据的过程也不同，可以包括如下两种情况：
情况1、DRB的类型为非确认模式。
在该种情况下，终端设备可以将已生成且未向辅基站发送的数据确定为第一数据。即，第一数据包括：终端设备已生成且未向辅基站发送的数据。
终端设备可以通过如下方式向辅基站发送数据，终端设备通过PDCP层生成数据，并将PDCP层生成的数据提交至SCG RLC层，终端设备再通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送数据。SCG RLC层可以设置发送队列，终端设备将PDCP层生成的数据提交至SCG RLC层之后，按照数据的生成顺序，将数据存储至SCG RLC层的发送队列中，终端设备再按照发送队列中的数据的存储顺序，通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送数据。由于DRB的类型为非确认模式，因此，在终端设备通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送第一数据之后，终端设备不会收到辅基站发送的响应消息。
在该种情况下，终端设备已生成且向辅基站发送的数据是指终端设备已提交至SCG RLC层，且未通过SCG RLC层发送的数据。因此，终端设备可以将已提交至SCG RLC层，且未通过SCG RLC层发送的数据确定为第一数据。
情况2、DRB的类型为确认模式。
在该种情况下，终端设备可以将已生成且未向辅基站发送的数据、以及向辅基站发送且未收到确认响应的数据确定为第一数据。即，第一数据包括：终端设备已生成且未向辅基站发送的数据、以及向辅基站发送且未收到确认响应的数据。
终端设备向辅基站发送数据的方式可以参见情况1中的描述，此处不再进行赘述。由于DRB的类型为确认模式，因此，在终端设备在通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送数据之后，辅基站向终端设备发送响应，若辅基站成 功接收到来自终端设备的数据，则辅基站向终端设备发送确认响应(ACK)；若辅基站未成功接收到来自终端设备的数据，则辅基站向终端设备发送非确认响应(NACK)。
在该种情况下，终端设备已生成且未向辅基站发送的数据为终端设备将已提交至SCG RLC层且未通过SCG RLC层发送的数据，终端设备向辅基站发送且未收到确认响应的数据为终端设备通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送且未收到确认响应的数据。因此，终端设备可以将已提交至SCG RLC层且未通过SCG RLC层发送的数据、以及通过SCG RLC层向辅基站发送且未收到确认响应的数据确定为第一数据。
S203、终端设备向主基站发送第一数据。
终端设备可以通过如下方式向主基站发送第一数据：终端设备向MCG RLC层提交第一数据，并通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送第一数据。
可选的，第一数据可以包括多个PDCP PDU，相应的，终端设备可以确定该多个PDCP PDU之间的发送顺序，并按照该发送顺序向主基站发送该多个PDCP PDU。其中，PDCP PDU之间的发送顺序与该多个PDCP PDU提交至SCG RLC层的顺序相同。这样，可以使得第一数据的发送顺序正确。
可选的，终端设备向主基站发送第一数据之前，若终端设备通过PDCP层生成新的数据，则终端设备暂时不向主基站发送该新的数据，以避免数据的发送顺序出错。例如，在终端设备通过PDCP层生成新的数据之后，终端设备可以暂时不向MCG RLC层提交该新生成的数据，在第一数据全部提及至MCG RLC层之后，终端设备再将新生成的数据提交至MCG RLC层。
可选的，终端设备还删除已经提及中SCG RLC层的第一数据，以避免在终端设备与辅基站之间的通信正常之后，终端设备重复通过SCG RLC向辅基站发送该第一数据。
S204、主基站处理第一数据。
可选的，主基站可以确定接收端，并向接收端发送该第一数据。
当DRB的类型为确认模式时，主基站还向终端设备发送响应(ACK或者NACK)。当DRB的类型为非确认模式时，主基站不向终端设备发送响应。
本申请实施例提供的通信方法，终端设备分别与主基站和辅基站连接，在终端设备确定与辅基站之间的通信异常时，终端设备可以先确定出未成功向辅基站发送的第一数据，并向主基站发送该部分数据，以使主基站处理该部分数据，进而避免数据丢失，提高通信的可靠性。
下面，通过图3所示的实施例，对上述通信方法进行进一步详细说明。
图3为本申请实施例提供的另一种通信方法的流程示意图。请参见图3，该方法可以包括：
S301、端设备确定终端设备与辅基站之间通信异常。
需要说明的是，S301的执行过程可以参见S201的执行过程，此处不再进行赘述。
S302、终端设备确定终端设备与辅基站之间的DRB的类型。
终端设备可以先确定终端设备与辅基站之间存在DRB，再确定DRB的类型，DRB的类型为确认模式或者非确认模式。
S303、终端设备根据DRB的类型，确定为向辅基站成功发送的第一数据。
其中，第一数据中包括多个PDCP PDU。
需要说明的是，S303的执行过程可以参见S202中的相关描述，此处不再进行赘述。
S304、终端设备确定多个PDCP PDU之间的发送顺序。
可选的，终端设备可以将该多个PDCP PDU在SCG RLC层中的存储顺序确定为该多个PDCP PDU的发送顺序。
例如，在SCG RLC层中可以设置有发送队列，可以将发送队里中的PDCP PDU的顺序确定为该多个PDCP PDU之间的发送顺序。
S305、终端设备按照该发送顺序，向MCG RLC层提交该多个PDCP PDU。
可选的，MCG RLC中可以设置有该发送队列，终端设备可以按照该发送顺序，将该多个PDCP PDU存储至该发送队列中。
在实际应用过程中，在S301之后，以及在S305之前，若终端设备生成新的PDCP PDU，则终端设备暂时不向MCG RLC层提交该新的PDCP PDU，直至S305执行完成。
S306、终端设备在SCG RLC层删除多个PDCP PDU。
终端设备可以清空SCG RLC层的缓存队列中的PDCP PDU。
S307、终端设备按照发送顺序，通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送该多个PDCP PDU。
S308、主基站处理该多个PDCP PDU。
需要说明的是，上述图3只是示意出一种可能的执行顺序，并非对执行顺序的限定，例如，还可以在S307之后执行S306，或者在S305之前执行S306，本申请实施例对此不作具体限定。
在图3所示的实施例中，终端设备分别与主基站和辅基站连接，在终端设备确定与辅基站之间的通信异常时，终端设备可以先确定与辅基站之间是否存在DRB，若是，则终端设备根据DRB的类型确定出未成功向辅基站发送的多个PDCP PDU，以及该多个PDCP PDU之间的发送顺序，并按照该发送顺序向MCG RLC层提交该多个PDCP PDU，以及按照发送顺序通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送该多个PDCP PDU，以使主基站处理该多个PDCP PDU，进而避免数据丢失。并且在终端设备向MCG RLC层提交完成该多个PDCP PDU之前，即使终端设备生成新的PDCP PUD，终端设备也不向MCG RLC层提交该新的PDCP PDU，以避免数据包的顺序发生错误。
下面，结合图4，通过具体示例，对本申请实施例所示的通信方法进行详细说明。
图4为本申请实施例提供的一种通信过程示意图。请参见图4，包括终端设备401、辅基站402和主基站403。终端设备401与辅基站402和主基站403之间分别具有通信连接。
在通信过程中，终端设备确定与辅基站之间的通信链路异常，终端设备确定其与辅基站之间具有DRB，则终端设备获取DRB的类型。假设DRB的类型为非确认模式，则终端设备在SCG RLC层的发送队列中确定PDCP层已生成且未向辅基站发送的PDCP PDU包括：PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5。
假设此时终端设备通过PDCP层生成新的PDCP PUD6，则终端设备暂时先不想MCG RLC层提交该PDCP PDU6。
终端设备先将PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5分别提交至MCG RLC层的发送队列中，然后，再将PDCP PDU6提交至MCG RLC层 的发送队列中，即，MCG RLC层的发送队列中的PDCP PDU依次顺序为：PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5、PDCP PDU6。在终端设备将PDCP PDU3至PDCP PDU5存储至MCG RLC层的发送队列之后，终端设备删除SCG RLC层发送队列中的PDCP PDU3至PDCP PDU5。
终端设备依次通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5、PDCP PDU6，以使主基站向接收端依次发送PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5、PDCP PDU6，这样，不但可以避免接收到漏接收到PDCP PDU3、PDCP PDU4、PDCP PDU5，还可以避免接收到接收的顺序发送错误。
可选的，若DRB的类型为非确认模式，则终端设备通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送一个PDCP PDU之后，终端设备在MCG RLC层的发送队列中删除该PDCP PDU。例如，终端设备通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送PDCP PDU3之后，终端设备在MCG RLC层的发送队列中删除PDCP PDU3，并将依次移动该发送队列中的其它PDCP PDU，以使PDCP PDU4位于队首。
可选的，若DRB的类型为确认模式，则终端设备通过MCG RLC层向主基站发送一个PDCP PDU之后，终端设备若收到该PDCP PDU对应的确认响应，则终端设备在MCG RLC层的发送队列中删除该PDCP PDU，若终端设备在预设时长内均未收到一个PDCP PDU的确认响应，则终端设备可以通过MCG RLC层重发该PDCP PDU。
图5为本申请实施例提供的一种通信装置的结构示意图。该通信装置10可以设置在终端设备中，终端设备分别与主基站和辅基站连接。请参见图5，该通信装置10包括：处理模块11和发送模块12，其中，

所述处理模块11还用于，确定未向所述辅基站成功发送的第一数据；
