背景技术
为了使得终端能够进行上行同步,基站可以向终端指示定时提前量(Timing Advance),终端根据基站指示的定时提前量来获取上行同步,但是基站所能指示的定时提前量的大小是有限的,目前最大不能超过2毫秒。
但是在非地面网络(Non-Terrestrial Networks,简称NTN)中,终端与地面基站之间通过卫星通信,由于卫星位于空中,信号从地面传输至卫星,再由卫星传输至地面所需的时间较长,因此会产生较大的时延,最大时延可以达到500毫秒以上,这远远大于基站所能指示的定时提前量。
发明内容
有鉴于此,本公开的实施例提出了上行定时提前量确定方法、公共定时相关信息广播方法、上行定时提前量确定装置、公共定时相关信息广播装置、电子设备和计算机可读存储介质,以解决相关技术中的技术问题。

定时提前确定模块,被配置为根据所述公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。
根据本公开实施例的第四方面,提出一种公共定时相关信息广播装置,适用于小区,所述装置包括:
定时广播模块,被配置为广播公共定时相关信息,其中,所述公共定时相关信息供所述小区中的终端确定上行定时提前量。

处理器;
用于存储处理器可执行指令的存储器;
其中,所述处理器被配置为执行上述上行定时提前量确定方法,和/或上述公共定时相关信息广播方法。
根据本公开实施例的第六方面,提出一种计算机可读存储介质,其上存储有计算机程序,该程序被处理器执行时实现上述上行定时提前量确定方法,和/或上述公共定时相关信息广播方法中的步骤。
根据本公开的实施例,小区可以不必指示全部的上行定时提前量,而只需指示公共定时相关信息,而公共定时相关信息不会大于上行定时提前量,因此有利于减少指示的信息量。
另外,通过广播公共定时相关信息的有效时间相关信息,终端在根据有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效的情况下,可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,从而即使公共时间偏移量变化,小区也不必不断地通知终端改变后的公共时间偏移量,有利于减少信令开销,降低终端的功耗。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,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,都属于本公开保护的范围。
图1是根据本公开的实施例示出的一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。本实施例所示的上行定时提前量确定方法可以适用于终端,所述终端包括但不限于手机、平板电脑、可穿戴设备、传感器、物联网设备等电子设备。所述终端可以作为用户设备与基站通信,所述基站包括但不限于4G基站、5G基站、6G基站。在一个实施例中,所述基站可以是后续任一实施例所述的公共定时相关信息广播方法所适用的基站。
在一个实施例中,终端和基站可以在非地面网络中通信,终端和基站可以位于地面,终端可以与基站通过空中设备通信,例如基站将信息先发送给空中设备,再由空中设备发送给终端。所述空中设备包括但不限于卫星、无人机、空中平台等,所述 空中设备可以在空中运动。
以下实施例中所述的小区,可以是指空中设备的信号覆盖区域,基站可以将信息发送给空中设备,由空中设备发送给该小区中的终端,其中,发送方式可以是广播,也可以是单播。
如图1所示,所述上行定时提前量确定方法可以包括以下步骤:
在步骤S101中,接收小区广播的公共定时相关信息;
在步骤S102中,根据所述公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。
在一个实施例中,小区可以广播公共定时相关信息,当终端在小区的信号覆盖范围内时,可以接收到小区广播的公共定时相关信息,进而终端可以根据公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。其中,小区广播的公共定时相关信息可以由小区对应的基站根据需要确定,本公开实施例不作限制。
在一个实施例中,所述公共定时相关信息包括以下至少之一:
公共定时偏移量、时间漂移率。
其中,公共定时偏移量至少根据公共定时偏移得到,公共定时偏移可以是指基站到地面参考点之间的往返时延(Round Trip Time,简称RTT),例如空中设备到地面参考点的距离为d0,空中设备到基站的距离为d0_F,信号传播速度等于光速c,那么公共定时偏移等于2*(d0+d0_F)/c,公共定时偏移量至少根据2*(d0+d0_F)/c得到。
根据本公开的实施例,小区可以不必指示全部的上行定时提前量,而只需指示公共定时相关信息,而公共定时相关信息不会大于上行定时提前量,因此有利于减少指示的信息量。
在一个实施例中,以公共定时相关信息包括公共定时偏移量X为例,终端可以根据下式确定上行定时提前量TA:
TA=(N TA+N TA,offset[+X])×T c[+X];
其中,X为公共定时偏移量,N TA基于终端的特定定时提前量UE specific TA得到,N TA,offset为TA偏移值,可以是已知定义值,T c为已知定义值。
需要说明的是,上式中X只出现一次,例如出现在小括号内,那么就是(N TA+N TA,offset+X)×T c,在这种情况下X可以是无单位量,例如出现在式子末尾,那么 就是TA=(N TA+N TA,offset)×T c+X,在这种情况下,X的单位可以是时间单位,例如毫秒、秒、帧等。
在一个实施例中,在确定上行定时提前量后,终端在发送上行信息时,可以根据上行定时提前量进行上行同步,例如在进行随机接入时,可以通过确定的上行定时提前量对发送随机接入的第一条消息Msg1/MsgA进行预补偿。
在一个实施例中,小区广播的公共定时偏移量,可以包括两部分,一部分是需要终端补偿的公共定时偏移量,例如称作X 1,另一部分是由网络(例如卫星、基站)补偿的公共定时偏移量,例如称作X 2,终端可以根据其中需要终端补偿的公共定时偏移量X 1来按照上述实施例确定上行定时提前量。另外,小区也可以广播X 1与X 2之和,以及X 1和X 2中的一个,那么X 1和X 2中的另一个,可以由终端做减法得到。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息可以携带在小区广播的系统信息中,例如可以携带在系统信息块SIB1或其他系统信息中。
小区可以通过广播寻呼(paging)来告知终端系统信息是否更新,终端在根据寻呼确定系统信息更新的情况下,可以从系统信息中获取更新更新后的公共定时相关信息。而在根据寻呼信息确定系统信息未更新的情况下,可以不必获取系统信息,以便减少终端的功耗。
其中,在公共定时相关信息携带在其他系统信息中时,终端在根据寻呼确定系统信息更新的情况下,可以进一步根据SIB1中的预设字段,例如si-SchedulingInfo中的valueTag,确定携带在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息是否更新,在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息未更新的情况下,valueTag可以保持不变,在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息更新的情况下,valueTag可以改变。
图2是根据本公开的实施例示出的另一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图2所示,所述根据所述公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量包括:
在步骤S201中,根据起始时间的公共定时偏移量、所述时间漂移率、从所述起始时间到定时提前量更新时刻的时长更新公共定时偏移量;
在步骤S202中,根据更新后的公共定时偏移量确定上行定时提前量。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息除了可以包括公共定时偏移量,还可以包括时间漂移率,其中,时间漂移率是指公共定时偏移量单位时间内的变化量,也可以是指上行定时提前量单位时间内的变化量。
以时间漂移率是公共定时偏移量单位时间内的变化量为例,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量X 0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据时间漂移率R更新X 0,得到更新后的公共定时偏移量X=X 0+t×R,进而可以根据更新后的公共定时偏移量确定上行定时提前量。
以时间漂移率是上行定时提前量单位时间内的变化量为例,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量TA 0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据时间漂移率R更新TA 0,得到更新后的公共定时偏移量TA=TA 0+t×R。
需要说明的是,更新时刻可以是周期性的,具体的周期可以由网络指示、或者由终端预先存储;更新时刻也可以是非周期性的,那么可以由网络指示具体的更新时刻,或者根据更新偏移量确定更新时刻,例如起始时间加上更新偏移量等于更新时刻,更新偏移量可以由网络指示、或者由终端预先存储。
在一个实施例中,上述单位时间包括但不限于以下至少之一:
帧、子帧、时隙、秒、毫秒、系统信息修改周期。
在一个实施例中,所述起始时间为以下至少之一:
接收所述公共定时相关信息的时间所在系统信息窗口的边界,例如系统信息窗口的起始边界、系统信息窗口的结束边界;
接收所述公共定时相关信息的时间之前或之后最近的系统帧号边界,例如系统帧号的起始边界、系统帧号的结束边界;
接收所述公共定时相关信息的时间之前或之后的系统信息块SIB1的发送周期边界,例如发送周期的起始边界、发送周期的结束边界,其中,系统信息块SIB1用于携带所述公共定时相关信息。
需要说明的是,有关起始时间的限定,可以适用于本公开所有实施例中的起始时间。
由于在卫星等空中设备一般是处于高速运动中的,公共时间偏移量会随着空中设备的运动而不断改变,如果不断地通知终端改变后的公共时间偏移量,将会造成大量的信令开销,并且提供终端的功耗,针对该问题,以下实施例提出有关有效时间相关信息的内容。
图3是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程 图。如图3所示,所述方法还包括:
在步骤S301中,接收小区广播的所述公共定时相关信息的有效时间相关信息;
在步骤S302中,根据所述有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息可以存在一定时效性,而有关时效性的具体有效时间相关信息,可以由小区广播,进而终端可以根据有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息是否有效。
在一个实施例中,在根据有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效的情况下,可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗。
据此,即使公共时间偏移量变化,小区也不必不断地通知终端改变后的公共时间偏移量,有利于减少信令开销,降低终端的功耗。
需要说明的是,在公共定时相关信息的有效时间范围内,小区也可以根据需要更新公共定时相关信息,并通过寻呼告知终端系统信息发生变更,在这种情况下,即使终端确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效,仍然需要接收系统信息,以获取更新的公共定时相关信息。
另外,公共定时相关信息可以包括公共定时偏移量和时间漂移率,有效时间相关信息可以是仅适用于公共定时偏移量,也可以仅适用于时间漂移率,还可以既适用于公共定时偏移量,又适用于时间漂移率。
图4是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图4所示,所述根据所述有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效包括:
在步骤S401中,响应于所述有效时间相关信息为有效截止时刻,在从起始时间到所述有效截止时刻的时段内,确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
在一个实施例中,有效时间相关信息可以是有效截止时刻,那么在从起始时间到所述有效截止时刻的时段内,终端可以确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
在有效截止时刻之前,小区可以不必广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端也可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗,而在截止时间之后,小区可以广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端可以获取携带公共定时相关信 息的系统信息,以便确定新的公共定时相关信息。
在有效截止时刻之前,终端可以根据已接收到的公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。在公共定时相关信息包括时间漂移率的情况下,在有效截止时刻之前,可以根据时间漂移率更新公共定时偏移量和/或上行定时提前量。

在一个实施例中,有效时间相关信息可以是有效持续时长,那么在从起始时间持续有效持续时长的时段内,终端可以确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
在该时段内,小区可以不必广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端也可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗,而在时段之后,小区可以广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端可以获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便确定新的公共定时相关信息。
在从起始时间持续有效持续时长的时段内,终端可以根据已接收到的公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。在公共定时相关信息包括时间漂移率的情况下,在有效截止时刻之前,可以根据时间漂移率更新公共定时偏移量和/或上行定时提前量。

在步骤S601中,响应于所述有效时间相关信息为有效起始时刻,从所述有效起始时刻开始,确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
在一个实施例中,有效时间相关信息可以是有效起始时刻,那么在从有效起始时刻开始,终端可以确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
从有效起始时刻开始,小区仍然可以广播寻呼,终端可以根据接收到的寻呼确定系统信息是否更新,在确定系统信息更新的情况下,可以获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便确定新的公共定时相关信息。
在从有效起始时刻开始到下一次从系统信息中获取新的公共定时相关信息之前,终端可以根据已接收到的公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。在公共定时相关信息包括时间漂移率的情况下,可以根据时间漂移率更新公共定时偏移量和/或上行定时提前量。
图7是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图7所示,所述根据所述有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效包括:
在步骤S701中,响应于所述有效时间相关信息为有效起始时刻和有效截止时刻,在从所述有效起始时刻到所述有效截止时刻的时段内,确定已接收到的公共定时相关信息有效。
在一个实施例中,有效时间相关信息可以是有效起始时刻和有效截止时刻,那么在从有效起始时刻到有效截止时刻时段内,终端可以确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。
在该时段内,小区可以不必广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端也可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗,而在时段之后,小区可以广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端可以获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便确定新的公共定时相关信息。
在从有效起始时刻到有效截止时刻时段内,终端可以根据已接收到的公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。在公共定时相关信息包括时间漂移率的情况下,在有效截止时刻之前,可以根据时间漂移率更新公共定时偏移量和/或上行定时提前量。
图8是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图8所示,所述有效时间相关信息包括有效起始时刻和/或有效截止时刻,所述方法还包括:
在步骤S801中,根据小区发送的第一指示信息确定所述有效起始时刻和/或所述有效截止时刻对应的系统帧号。
在一个实施例中,小区可以通过第一指示信息指示系统帧号,使得终端确定有效起始时刻和/或有效截止时刻,也即所指示的系统帧号即有效起始时刻和/或有效截止时刻,其中,系统帧号(SFN,System Frame Number)可以是单一的系统帧号,也可以是高位系统帧号Hyper SFN和低位系统帧号的组合。在通过该方式指示有效起始时 刻和/或有效截止时刻的情况下,需要小区持续广播当前的系统帧号。
图9是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图9所示,所述有效时间相关信息包括有效起始时刻和/或有效截止时刻,所述方法还包括:

在一个实施例中,小区可以通过第二指示信息指示偏移量,使得终端确定有效起始时刻和/或有效截止时刻,所指示的偏移量,是相对于接收到公共定时相关信息的时间的偏移量。
其中,接收到公共定时相关信息的时间与上述实施例中有关起始时间的限定可以是相同的,在此不再赘述。
图10是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图10所示,所述根据所述有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效包括:
在步骤S1001中,响应于所述公共定时相关信息中的有效截止时刻为接收到公共定时相关信息的时间对应的系统信息修改周期的结束时间,在所述有效截止时刻之前,确定已接收到的公共定时相关信息有效。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息可以包括有效截止时刻,有效截止时刻可以是终端接收到公共定时相关信息的时间对应的系统信息修改周期的结束时间,在有效截止时刻之前,可以确定已接收到公共定时相关信息有效。需要说明的是,在这种情况下,小区可以不必广播具体的有效截止时刻,只需告知终端公共定时相关信息是有效截止时刻,终端就能够自动将接收到公共定时相关信息的时间对应的系统信息修改周期的结束时间作为有效截止时刻,据此,有利于减少小区广播公共定时相关信息的信息量。
在有效截止时刻之前,小区可以不必广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端也可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗,而在截止时间之后,小区可以广播寻呼来告知终端系统信息更新,终端可以获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便确定新的公共定时相关信息。
在有效截止时刻之前,终端可以根据已接收到的公共定时相关信息确定上行定 时提前量。在公共定时相关信息包括时间漂移率的情况下,在有效截止时刻之前,可以根据时间漂移率更新公共定时偏移量和/或上行定时提前量。
图11是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图11所示,所述时间漂移率包括第一漂移率和第二漂移率,上行定时提前量还基于所述终端的特定定时提前量计算,所述根据所述公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量包括:
在步骤S1101中,根据所述第一漂移率更新所述终端的特定定时提前量;
在步骤S1102中,根据更新后的所述终端的特定定时提前量、所述公共定时相关信息和所述第二时间漂移率确定上行定时提前量。
在一个实施例中,终端可以根据特定定时提前量来计算上行定时提前量,例如根据式子TA=(N TA+N TA,offset[+X])×T c[+X]计算。
在这种情况下,时间漂移率可以包括两部分:第一漂移率R1和第二漂移率R2。其中第一漂移率适用于特定定时提前量,第二漂移率适用于公共时间漂移率或公共定时提前量。
那么可以根据第一漂移率先更新特定定时提前量,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量N TA0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据第一漂移率R1更新N TA0,得到更新后的特定定时提前量N TA=N TA0+t×R1。
以第二漂移率是公共定时偏移量单位时间内的变化量为例,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量X 0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据第二漂移率R2更新X 0,得到更新后的公共定时偏移量X=X 0+t×R2,进而可以根据更新后的所述终端的特定定时提前量和更新后的公共定时偏移量确定上行定时提前量。
图12是根据本公开的实施例示出的又一种上行定时提前量确定方法的示意流程图。如图12所示,上行定时提前量还基于所述终端的特定定时提前量计算,所述根据所述公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量包括:
在步骤S1201中,根据所述时间漂移率更新所述终端的特定定时提前量;
在步骤S1202中,根据更新后的所述终端的特定定时提前量、所述公共定时相关信息和所述时间漂移率确定上行定时提前量。
在一个实施例中,终端可以根据特定定时提前量来计算上行定时提前量,例如 根据式子TA=(N TA+N TA,offset[+X])×T c[+X]计算。
在这种情况下,时间漂移率R可以既适用于特定定时提前量,又适用于公共时间漂移率或公共定时提前量。
那么可以根据时间漂移率先更新特定定时提前量,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量N TA0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据时间漂移率R更新N TA0,得到更新后的特定定时提前量N TA=N TA0+t×R。
以时间漂移率是公共定时偏移量单位时间内的变化量为例,可以先确定起始时间的公共定时偏移量X 0,以及从起始时间到更新时刻的时长t,那么可以根据时间漂移率R更新X 0,得到更新后的公共定时偏移量X=X 0+t×R,进而可以根据更新后的所述终端的特定定时提前量和更新后的公共定时偏移量确定上行定时提前量。
图13是根据本公开的实施例示出的一种公共定时相关信息广播方法的示意流程图。本实施例所示的公共定时相关信息广播方法可以适用于小区,例如适用于小区对应的网络侧设备,所述网络侧设备包括但不限于是非地面网络中的地面基站、空中设备,所述基站包括但不限于4G基站、5G基站、6G基站。所述基站可以与作为用户设备的终端进行通信,所述终端包括但不限于手机、平板电脑、可穿戴设备、传感器、物联网设备等电子设备。在一个实施例中,所述终端可以是上述任一实施例所述上行定时提前量确定方法所适用的终端。
在一个实施例中,终端和基站可以位于地面,终端可以与基站通过空中设备通信,例如基站将信息先发送给空中设备,再由空中设备发送给终端。所述空中设备包括但不限于卫星、无人机、空中平台等,所述空中设备可以在空中运动。
如图13所示,所述公共定时相关信息广播方法可以包括以下步骤:
在步骤S1301中,广播公共定时相关信息,其中,所述公共定时相关信息供所述小区中的终端确定上行定时提前量。
在一个实施例中,小区可以广播公共定时相关信息,当终端在小区的信号覆盖范围内时,可以接收到小区广播的公共定时相关信息,进而终端可以根据公共定时相关信息确定上行定时提前量。其中,小区广播的公共定时相关信息可以由小区对应的基站根据需要确定,本公开实施例不作限制。
在一个实施例中,所述公共定时相关信息包括以下至少之一:
公共定时偏移量、时间漂移率。
其中,公共定时偏移量至少根据公共定时偏移得到,公共定时偏移可以是指基站到地面参考点之间的往返时延(Round Trip Time,简称RTT),例如空中设备到地面参考点的距离为d0,空中设备到基站的距离为d0_F,信号传播速度等于光速c,那么公共定时偏移等于2*(d0+d0_F)/c,公共定时偏移量至少根据2*(d0+d0_F)/c得到。
根据本公开的实施例,小区可以不必指示全部的上行定时提前量,而只需指示公共定时相关信息,而公共定时相关信息不会大于上行定时提前量,因此有利于减少指示的信息量。
在一个实施例中,以公共定时相关信息包括公共定时偏移量X为例,终端可以根据下式确定上行定时提前量TA:
TA=(N TA+N TA,offset[+X])×T c[+X];
其中,X为公共定时偏移量,N TA基于终端的特定定时提前量UE specific TA得到,N TA,offset为3GPP TS38.213 section 4.2中定义的TA偏移,T c为3GPP TS38.211 section 4.1中定义的值。
需要说明的是,上式中X只出现一次,例如出现在小括号内,那么就是(N TA+N TA,offset+X)×T c,在这种情况下X可以是无单位量,例如出现在式子末尾,那么就是TA=(N TA+N TA,offset)×T c+X,在这种情况下,X的单位可以是时间单位,例如毫秒、秒、帧等。
在一个实施例中,在确定上行定时提前量后,终端在发送上行信息时,可以根据上行定时提前量进行上行同步,例如在进行随机接入时,可以通过确定的上行定时提前量对发送随机接入的第一条消息Msg1/MsgA进行预补偿。
在一个实施例中,小区广播的公共定时偏移量,可以包括两部分,一部分是需要终端补偿的公共定时偏移量,例如称作X 1,另一部分是由网络(例如卫星、基站)补偿的公共定时偏移量,例如称作X 2,终端可以根据其中需要终端补偿的公共定时偏移量X 1来按照上述实施例确定上行定时提前量。另外,小区也可以广播X 1与X 2之和,以及X 1和X 2中的一个,那么X 1和X 2中的另一个,可以由终端做减法得到。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息可以携带在小区广播的系统信息中,例如可以携带在系统信息块SIB1或其他系统信息中。
小区可以通过广播寻呼(paging)来告知终端系统信息是否更新,终端在根据寻呼确定系统信息更新的情况下,可以从系统信息中获取更新更新后的公共定时相关信息。而在根据寻呼信息确定系统信息未更新的情况下,可以不必获取系统信息,以便减少终端的功耗。
其中,在公共定时相关信息携带在其他系统信息中时,终端在根据寻呼确定系统信息更新的情况下,可以进一步根据SIB1中的预设字段,例如si-SchedulingInfo中的valueTag,确定携带在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息是否更新,在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息未更新的情况下,valueTag可以保持不变,在其他系统信息中的公共定时相关信息更新的情况下,valueTag可以改变。
图14是根据本公开的实施例示出的另一种公共定时相关信息广播方法的示意流程图。如图14所示,所述方法还包括:
在步骤S1401中,广播所述公共定时相关信息的有效时间相关信息。
在一个实施例中,公共定时相关信息可以存在一定时效性,而有关时效性的具体有效时间相关信息,可以由小区广播,进而终端可以根据有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息是否有效。
在一个实施例中,在根据有效时间相关信息确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效的情况下,可以不必获取携带公共定时相关信息的系统信息,以便减少功耗。
需要说明的是,在公共定时相关信息的有效时间范围内,小区也可以根据需要更新公共定时相关信息,并通过寻呼告知终端系统信息发生变更,在这种情况下,即使终端确定已接收的公共定时相关信息有效,仍然需要接收系统信息,以获取更新的公共定时相关信息。
另外,公共定时相关信息可以包括公共定时偏移量和时间漂移率,有效时间相关信息可以是仅适用于公共定时偏移量,也可以仅适用于时间漂移率,还可以既适用于公共定时偏移量,又适用于时间漂移率。

在步骤S1501中,在所述截止时刻之后,响应于携带所述公共定时相关信息的系统信息更新,广播寻呼。
在一个实施例中,有效时间相关信息可以是有效截止时刻,那么在从起始时间到所述有效截止时刻的时段内,可以确定已广播的公共定时相关信息有效。
