Description

数据传输方法及通信装置 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种数据传输方法及通信装置。
背景技术
目前,终端设备(如手机)通常能够安装两张用户识别模块(subscriber identity module,SIM)卡,具备双卡双待(dual SIM dual standby,DSDS)功能。由于终端设备仅配置了一条射频发射(transmit,Tx)通道和两条射频接收(receive,Rx)通道,所以,终端设备中的两张SIM卡可以分时监控寻呼,但无法实现双卡同时通信。
虽然,在双卡上行DSDS技术中,终端设备利用第四代(4th-generation,4G)移动通信网络或者第五代(5th-generation,5G)移动通信网络的业务分组调度特性,使两张SIM卡的上行数据分时复用空口上行链路。并且,在两张SIM卡的上行数据发生冲突时,终端设备选择先发送一张SIM卡的上行数据,而丢弃另一张SIM卡的上行数据。之后,终端设备再利用重传机制保证另一张SIM卡的上行数据的成功发送。
但是,若两张SIM卡的上行数据量大,或无线信道质量差,则上行数据发生冲突的概率增加,终端设备重传大量的上行数据,导致数据吞吐量下降,传输时延大。

也就是说,终端设备先调整后发生小区切换的SIM卡的射频通道,即调整第一SIM卡对应的射频通道,以保证在先发生切换的SIM卡的业务稳定性。
第二方面,本申请实施例提供一种数据传输方法,该方法应用于配置有多个用户识别模块SIM卡的终端设备。该方法包括:通过第一发射通道发送第一SIM卡的数据,且通过第二发射通道发送第二SIM卡的数据,其中,第一发射通道与第二发射通道互不重叠。通过第一接收通道接收切换指令,其中,切换指令为第一SIM卡指示待切换的目标小区,切换指令指示的目标小区所在频段与第二发射通道对应。在第二SIM卡的工作带宽包括第一发射通道对应频段的情况下,通过第二发射通道发送第一SIM卡的数据,且通过第一发射通道发送第二SIM卡的数据。
基于上述技术方案,在终端设备移动过程中,发生小区切换,使得两张SIM的上行数据发生冲突,终端设备即可通过通道交换的方式,调整第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡分别对应的射频通道,从而采用互不重叠的射频通道分别发送第一SIM卡的数据和第二SIM卡的数据,以实现双卡数据发送的非竞争性和时域上的连续性,避免射频通道在两卡之间频繁切换,减少数据传输时延,提高数据吞吐量。

也就是说,终端设备将第二数据中的一部分数据,即第三数据,从第二载波转移到第一载波上发送,以减少第一SIM卡的数据在第二载波上的分配量。由于第二载波和第三载波复用同一发射通道,并且,第一SIM卡的数据在第二载波上的分配量减少,从而降低了双卡上行数据的冲突概率,在一定程度上提高了数据吞吐量,降低了数据传输时延。
在一种可能的设计中,终端设备通过第一载波发送第一数据和第三数据,且通过第二载波发送第四数据,包括:在满足第一预设条件的情况下,终端设备通过第一载波发送第一数据和第三数据,且通过第二载波发送第四数据。其中,第一预设条件包括以下至少一项:发送第二SIM卡的数据的载波为第三载波;第一SIM卡的数据的优先级低于第二SIM卡的数据的优先级。
基于上述技术方案,在预设条件满足第一项的情况下,即第二SIM卡的数据只能通过第三载波来传输,终端设备执行上述步骤,既保证了第一SIM卡与第一网络设备之间的数据正常传输,又保证了第二SIM卡与第二网络设备之间的数据正常传输,还能够降低双卡上行数据冲突的概率。在预设条件满足第二项的情况下,即第二SIM卡的数据优先级较高,终端设备执行上述步骤,以保证高优先级业务的传输质量,还能够降低双卡上行数据冲突的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,第一载波与第二载波属于同一网络。也就是说,在SA场 景下,终端设备可以通过MAC层调度,实现卡内模内的数据分流。
在一种可能的设计中,第一载波与第二载波属于不同网络。也就是说,在NSA场景下,终端设备通过PDCP层调度,实现卡内模间的数据分流。

具体实施方式
在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“/”表示“或”的意思,例如,A/B可以表示A或B。本文中的“和/或”仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或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。此外,“至少一个”是指一个或多个,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“第一”、“第二”等字样并不对数量和执行次序进行限定,并且“第一”、“第二”等字样也并不限定一定不同。
需要说明的是,本申请中,“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明。本申请中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其他实施例或设计方案更优选或更具优势。确切而言,使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念。
为了便于理解本申请的技术方案,下面先对本申请所涉及的技术术语进行简单介绍。
1、用户识别模块(subscriber identity module,SIM)卡
在移动通信系统中,SIM卡可以作为移动用户的网络身份的标识。SIM卡用于存 储用户数据和完成用户身份鉴权。一张SIM卡对应一个移动用户。需要说明的是,SIM卡可以存储用户标识。例如,用户标识可以为:国际移动用户识别码(international mobile subscriber identification number,IMSI)或者签约永久标识(subscription permanent identifier,SUPI)。
SIM卡可以通过物理卡片的形式实现,例如标准SIM卡、Mini-SIM卡、Micro SIM卡、以及Nano SIM卡。这种类型的SIM卡又可以称为全球用户识别(universal subscriber identity module,USIM)卡。
SIM卡还可以以内置芯片的形式实现,例如嵌入式用户识别模块(embedded-SIM,eSIM)卡。
SIM卡还可以以软件的形式实现。
2、多输入多输出(multiple-input multiple-output,MIMO)回退、MIMO恢复
MIMO回退是指,用于传输数据的MIMO层数变少的过程。
MIMO恢复是指,用于传输数据的MIMO层数增多的过程。
其中,层指的是空间复用度或空间自由度。以MIMO层数为2为例,在终端设备进行层映射的情况下,终端设备将一个传输块的数据分成两层,且两层的数据不一样,合起来是一个传输块的数据。
需要说明的是,在本申请实施例中,MIMO层数指示了传输数据的最小通道数量。例如,若第一SIM卡的MIMO层数为2,则终端设备至少通过两路射频Tx通道发送第一SIM卡的数据。在MIMO层数变少的情况下,用于传输数据的射频Tx通道数量减少。反之,在MIMO层数增多的情况下,用于传输数据的射频Tx通道数量增多。
以上是对本申请实施例所涉及的术语的介绍,在此统一说明,以下不再赘述。
随着通信技术的发展,很多终端设备(如手机)通常能够安装两张SIM卡,具备双卡双待(dual SIM dual standby,DSDS)功能。为了节省硬件成本,终端设备通常仅配置了一条射频发射(transmit,Tx)通道和两条射频接收(receive,Rx)通道。终端设备中的两张SIM卡可以分时监控寻呼,但无法实现双卡同时通信,即双卡双通(dual SIM dual active,DSDA)功能。
然而,在实际应用中,用户在很多场景下具有双卡双通的需求。如图1所示,用户A的终端设备110中可以安装两个SIM卡:第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡。其中,用户B使用终端设备120向终端设备110的第一SIM卡发起语音寻呼请求后,用户A可以使用终端设备110通过第一SIM卡与持有终端设备120的用户B进行语音通话。如图1所示,用户A使用终端设备110通过第一SIM卡与持有终端设备120的用户B进行语音通话过程中,用户C可能会使用终端设备130向终端设备110的第二SIM卡发起语音寻呼请求,请求通过第二SIM卡与持有终端设备110的用户A进行语音通话。
为了解决上述终端设备无法实现双卡双通的问题,终端设备采用了双卡上行DSDS技术。该技术的核心思路为:利用4G或者5G的网络业务的分组调度特性,使两张SIM卡的上行数据分时复用空口上行链路。并且,在两张SIM卡的上行数据发生冲突时,终端设备选择先发送一张SIM卡(以第一SIM卡为例)的待发送数据,而丢弃另一张SIM卡(以第二SIM卡为例)的待发送数据。之后,终端设备再利用重传机制保证第二SIM卡的上行数据的成功发送。
示例性的,如图2a所示,数据3占用的时隙#14与数据6占用的时隙#17在时域上重叠,因此,第二SIM卡的数据3与第一SIM卡的数据6在时域上发生冲突。终端设备经过仲裁之后,决定发送第一SIM卡的数据6,而丢弃第二SIM卡的数据3。之后,终端设备在接收到网络设备的反馈信息,才能重传第二SIM卡的数据3。
但是,在两张SIM卡的上行数据量大,或无线信道质量差的情况下,两张SIM卡的上行数据发生冲突的概率增加,终端设备重传大量的上行数据,导致数据吞吐量下降,传输时延大。
另外,射频Tx通道在两张SIM卡之间切换的过程中,部分时间段(如用于打孔的时间段)内不发送上行数据,以满足射频Tx通道中射频器件的配置需求。如此,用于传输上行数据的时长缩小,又增加了冲突重传的概率。并且,在5G中,资源调度的粒度是符号粒度,资源调度更加灵活,卡间抢占频繁,进一步加大了射频Tx通道切换的频繁程度,使得冲突重传的概率进一步加大。
示例性的,如图2b所示,对于终端设备的第二SIM卡而言,在第二SIM卡对应的第M个时隙中的符号#0至符号#2上,终端设备通过射频Tx通道发送物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH),以传输第二SIM卡的上行数据。在第二SIM卡对应的第M个时隙中的符号#4上,终端设备发生第1次射频通道切换,即射频Tx通道不再用于传输第二SIM卡的上行数据,而用于传输第一SIM卡的上行数据。射频通道切换之后的一定时长内,如第二SIM卡对应的第M个时隙的符号#5上,射频Tx通道不可用,无法传输第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡的上行数据。超过一定时长之后,在第一SIM卡对应的第N个时隙的符号#0至符号#4上,终端设备通过该射频Tx通道发送承载第一SIM卡的上行数据的PUSCH。
在第一SIM卡对应的第N个时隙中的符号#7上,终端设备发生第2次射频通道切换,即射频Tx通道不再用于传输第一SIM卡的上行数据,而用于传输第二SIM卡的上行数据。射频通道切换之后的一定时长内,如第一SIM卡对应的第N个时隙的符号#8上,射频Tx通道不可用,无法传输第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡的上行数据。超过一定时长之后,在第二SIM卡对应的第(M+1)个时隙的符号#2至符号#6上,终端设备通过射频Tx通道发送承载第二SIM卡的上行数据的PUSCH。
在第二SIM卡对应的第(M+1)个时隙的符号#10上,终端设备发生第3次射频通道切换,即射频Tx通道不再用于传输第二SIM卡的上行数据,而用于传输第一SIM卡的上行数据。射频通道切换之后的一定时长内,如第二SIM卡对应的第(M+1)个时隙的符号#11上,射频Tx通道不可用,无法传输第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡的上行数据。超过一定时长之后,在第一SIM卡对应的第(N+1)个时隙的符号#6至符号#10上,终端设备通过射频Tx通道发送承载第一SIM卡的上行数据的PUSCH。
经测试,上述终端设备的数据吞吐量从百兆级别掉到十兆甚至只有几兆,用户体验明显下降。
可见,对于安装两张SIM卡的终端设备来说,存在两张SIM卡的上行数据冲突概率高、数据吞吐量低和发送时延较大的问题。
为了解决上述技术问题,本申请实施例提供一种数据传输方法,该方法应用于配置有多个SIM卡的终端设备,该终端设备的发射通道至少有两条,且该终端设备的接 收通道至少有两条。该数据传输方法的技术构思在于:终端设备通过第一发射通道发送第一SIM卡的第一数据,其中,第一发射通道包括至少两条通道,第一发射通道与第二发射通道重叠,第二发射通道用于发送第二SIM卡的数据。也就是说,重叠的发射通道分时复用(time division multiplexing,TDM)地传输双卡的数据。然后,终端设备通过第一发射通道发送第一请求信息,以及通过第一接收通道接收第一调度信息,其中,第一请求信息请求减少用于发送第一SIM卡的数据的通道数量,第一调度信息为第一SIM卡指示数据传输的资源,第一调度信息指示的资源对应的通道数量小于第一发射通道的数量。之后,终端设备通过第三发射通道发送第一SIM卡的第二数据,其中,第三发射通道的数量与第一调度信息指示的资源对应的通道数量相同,且第三发射通道与第二发射通道不重叠,第二数据是第一数据之后待传输的数据。这样一来,终端设备即可通过互不重叠的发射通道分别发送第一SIM卡的数据和第二SIM卡的数据,实现双卡数据发送的非竞争性和时域上的连续性,避免射频通道在两卡之间频繁切换,减少数据传输时延,提高数据吞吐量。
应理解,由于器件自身的属性,每一射频Tx通道具备一个工作频段。第一调度信息指示的资源对应的通道,可以理解为,第一调度信息指示时频资源,其中,频域资源可以是至少一个频段。若第一调度信息指示的频段处于某一射频Tx通道的工作频段内,则该射频Tx通道即为第一调度信息指示的资源对应的通道。
为了便于描述,下文中将现有技术的技术方案称为“分时复用发送方式”,本申请实施例提供的一种技术方案称为“上行射频通道灵活调度的发送方式”。
图3a为本申请实施例提供的一种终端设备的结构示意图。如图3a所示,终端设备300可以包括:第一SIM卡接口310、第二SIM卡接口320、与第一SIM卡接口310和第二SIM卡接口320分别耦合的管理器340、与管理器340耦合的处理器330,处理器330连接收发器350。其中,上述处理器330可以为基带处理器(base band processor,BBP)。如图3a所示,收发器350中包括射频Rx1通道、射频Rx2通道、射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道。
其中,上述第一SIM卡接口310用于安装第一SIM卡,与第一SIM卡通信,上述第二SIM卡接口320用于安装第二SIM卡,与第二SIM卡通信。
示例性的,本申请实施例中终端设备所配置的每张SIM卡均可以支持以下通信制式中的任意一种:全球移动通信系统(global system for mobile communication,GSM)制式、通用移动通信系统(universal mobile telecommunications system,UMTS)制式、时分同步码分多址(time division-synchronous code division multiple access,TD-SCDMA)制式、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)制式、码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)制式等制。
可选的,上述图3a中仅示出两个SIM卡接口,终端设备300还可以配置更多的SIM卡接口。
应注意,本申请实施例中的射频Tx通道,也可以称为发射通道、Tx射频资源或发射器(transmitter)。射频Rx通道,也可以称为接收通道、Rx射频资源或接收器(receiver)。
示例性的,参见图3b,本申请实施例中可以将上述射频Tx1通道和射频Rx1通道记为TRX,用于收发第一SIM卡的数据。将上述射频Rx2通道记为DRX,以接收第二SIM卡的数据。射频Tx2通道既可以发送第一SIM卡的数据,又可以发送第二SIM卡的数据。
图4示出本申请实施例提供的通信系统的示意图。如图4所示,终端设备300可以安装至少两个SIM卡,例如第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡。终端设备300中的第一SIM卡可以为终端设备300的主卡,第二SIM卡可以为终端设备300的副卡;或者,终端设备300中的第二SIM卡可以为终端设备300的主卡,第一SIM卡可以为终端设备300的副卡。
终端设备300可以使用第一SIM卡来与第一网络设备401建立无线连接。这样一来,终端设备300可以与第一网络设备401之间相互传输第一SIM卡的数据。
相应的,终端设备300可以使用第二SIM卡来与第二网络设备402建立无线连接。这样一来,终端设备300可以与网络设备402之间相互传输第二SIM卡的数据。
上述第一网络设备401和第二网络设备402可以是同一个网络设备或者是不同的网络设备。例如,第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡属于同一个运营商,并且支持相同的网络制式,则第一网络设备401和第二网络设备402可以是同一个网络设备。再如,第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡不属于同一个运营商,则第一网络设备401和第二网络设备402不是同一个网络设备。本申请实施例在此统一说明,以下不再赘述。
上述网络设备可以是无线通信的基站或基站控制器等。例如,所述基站可以包括各种类型的基站,例如:微基站(也称为小站),宏基站,中继站,接入点等,本申请实施例对此不作具体限定。在本申请实施例中,所述基站可以是长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)中的演进型基站(evolutional node B,eNB或e-NodeB),物联网(internet of things,IoT)或者窄带物联网(narrow band-internet of things,NB-IoT)中的eNB,5G移动通信网络或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的基站,本申请实施例对此不作任何限制。本申请实施例中,用于实现网络设备的功能的装置可以是网络设备,也可以是能够支持网络设备实现该功能的装置,例如芯片系统。在本申请实施例中,以用于实现网络设备的功能的装置是网络设备为例,描述本申请实施例提供的技术方案。
本申请所说的网络设备,例如基站,通常包括基带单元(baseband unit,BBU)、射频拉远单元(remote radio unit,RRU)、天线、以及用于连接RRU和天线的馈线。其中,BBU用于负责信号调制。RRU用于负责射频处理。天线用于负责线缆上导行波和空气中空间波之间的转换。一方面,分布式基站大大缩短了RRU和天线之间馈线的长度,可以减少信号损耗,也可以降低馈线的成本。另一方面,RRU加天线比较小,可以随地安装,让网络规划更加灵活。除了RRU拉远之外,还可以把BBU全部都集中起来放置在中心机房(central office,CO),通过这种集中化的方式,可以极大减少基站机房数量,减少配套设备,特别是空调的能耗,可以减少大量的碳排放。此外,分散的BBU集中起来变成BBU基带池之后,可以统一管理和调度,资源调配更加灵活。这种模式下,所有的实体基站演变成了虚拟基站。所有的虚拟基站在BBU基带池中共享用户的数据收发、信道质量等信息,相互协作,使得联合调度得以实现。
在一些部署中,基站可以包括集中式单元(centralized unit,CU)和分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)。基站还可以包括有源天线单元(active antenna unit,AAU)。CU实现基站的部分功能,DU实现基站的部分功能。比如,CU负责处理非实时协议和服务,实现无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC),分组数据汇聚层协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)层的功能。DU负责处理物理层协议和实时服务,实现无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)、媒体接入控制(media access control,MAC)和物理(physical,PHY)层的功能。AAU实现部分物理层处理功能、射频处理及有源天线的相关功能。由于RRC层的信息最终会变成PHY层的信息,或者,由PHY层的信息转变而来,因而,在这种架构下,高层信令,如RRC层信令或PDCP层信令,也可以认为是由DU发送的,或者,由DU+AAU发送的。可以理解的是,网络设备可以为包括CU、DU、AAU中一项或多项的设备。此外,CU可以划分为RAN中的网络设备,也可以将CU划分为核心网(core network,CN)中的网络设备,在此不做限制。
终端设备是一种具有无线收发功能的设备。终端设备可以被部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持或车载;也可以被部署在水面上(如轮船等);还可以被部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。终端设备设备可以是用户设备(user equipment,UE)。其中,UE包括具有无线通信功能的手持式设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备或计算设备。示例性地,UE可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑或带无线收发功能的电脑。终端设备还可以是虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)终端设备、工业控制中的无线终端、无人驾驶中的无线终端、远程医疗中的无线终端、智能电网中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端等等。本申请实施例中,用于实现终端设备的功能的装置可以是终端设备,也可以是能够支持终端设备实现该功能的装置,例如芯片系统。本申请实施例中,芯片系统可以由芯片构成,也可以包括芯片和其他分立器件。

如图5所示,手机500中还可以包括第一SIM卡接口551和第二SIM卡接口552。第一SIM卡接口551用于与第一SIM卡553通信,第二SIM卡接口552用于与第二SIM卡555通信。例如,第一SIM卡接口551和第二SIM卡接口552可以为SIM卡 连接器,其包括具有SIM卡收容空间的主体,以及用于对接收的SIM卡的导电端子进行接收的多个联通插槽。可以通过导电端子和插槽进行与SIM卡的电信令联系。示例接口可以包括串行或并行(例如,6针或8针)连接。此外,可以提供多种SIM卡尺寸(例如,全尺寸SIM、迷你SIM或者微型SIM)。在其他实施例中,当多种签约与通用身份模块相关联(例如,通用SIM)时,手机500可以不包括多个SIM卡接口。管理器550用于管理第一SIM卡553和第二SIM卡554。
如图5所示,手机500还可以包括耦合到编解码器CODEC 540的扬声器541和麦克风542。图5还指明了管理器550可以耦合到处理器510,且耦合到与收发器590进行通信的调制解调器580。其中,收发器590与一个或多个天线连接。图5中仅示出了一个天线的实例。
在特定的实施例中,收发器590与多个天线连接,调制解调器580支持分集,其中多个天线中的一个天线是主天线,另外的天线是辅天线。

其中,存储器560可用于存储软件程序及数据。处理器510通过运行存储在存储器560的软件程序及数据,从而执行手机500的各种功能以及数据处理。例如,如图5所示,存储器560中保存有指令561。指令561可以由处理器510执行。例如,指令561可以包括可由处理器510执行,以在调制解调器580的输入端接收与第一SIM卡553相关通信数据的指令。再如,指令561包括可由处理器510执行,以在调制解调器580的输入端接收与第二SIM卡554相关通信数据的指令。
上述存储器560可主要包括存储程序区和存储数据区,其中,存储程序区可存储操作系统、至少一个功能所需的应用程序(比如声音播放功能、图像播放功能)等;存储数据区可存储根据手机500的使用所创建的数据(比如音频数据、电话本)等。此外,存储器560可以包括高速随机存取存储器,还可以包括非易失性存储器,例如至少一个磁盘存储器件、闪存器件、或其他易失性固态存储器件。在以下实施例中,存储器560存储有使得手机500能运行的操作系统,例如苹果公司所开发的

当触控面板检测到在其上或附近的触摸操作后,传送给处理器510以确定触摸事件,随后处理器510根据触摸事件的类型在显示面板上提供相应的视觉输出。虽然在图5中,触控面板与显示面板是作为两个独立的部件来实现手机500的输入和输入功能,但是在某些实施例中,可以将触控面板与显示面板集成而实现手机500的输入和输出功能,集成后的触控面板与显示面板可以简称为触摸显示屏。
在另外的一些实施例中,上述触控面板还可以设置有压力感应传感器,这样用户在上述触控面板上进行触摸操作时,触控面板还能检测到该触摸操作的压力,进而手机500能够更准确地检测该触摸操作。
手机500还可以包括至少一种传感器543,比如光传感器、运动传感器以及其他传感器。具体地,光传感器可包括环境光传感器及接近传感器,其中,环境光传感器可根据环境光线的明暗来调节显示面板的亮度,接近光传感器设置在手机500的正面,当在手机500移动到耳边时,根据接近光传感器的检测,手机500关闭显示面板的电源,这样手机500可以进一步节省电量。作为运动传感器的一种,加速计传感器可检测各个方向上(一般为三轴)加速度的大小,静止时可检测出重力的大小及方向,可用于识别手机姿态的应用(比如横竖屏转化、相关游戏、磁力计姿态校准)、振动识别相关功能(比如计步器、敲击)等;至于手机500还可配置的陀螺仪、气压计、湿度计、温度计、红外线传感器等其他传感器,在此不再赘述。

如图6所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种数据传输方法600,该方法应用于配置至少两张SIM卡的终端设备。该终端设备至少配置两条射频Tx通道,分别记为射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道。该终端设备还至少配置两条射频Rx通道,分别记为射频Rx1通道和射频Rx2通道。该方法包括以下步骤:
S601、终端设备通过第一发射通道向第一网络设备发送数据1。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的数据1。
其中,数据1属于第一SIM卡的数据。第一SIM卡可以记为card1。
其中,第一发射通道包括至少两条通道。第一发射通道的通道数量可以记为TxNum_card1。示例性的,以图3a为例(或以图7中的(a)为例),第一发射通道包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道,TxNum_card1的取值为2。第一SIM卡对应的调制解调器所在频段(band)为新无线(new radio,NR)的频段A,记为NR Band-A。
S602、终端设备通过第二发射通道向第二网络设备发送数据2。相应的,第二网络设备接收来自终端设备的数据2。
其中,第二网络设备与第一网络设备是不同的网络设备。应理解,在第一SIM卡与第二SIM卡接入同一网络的情况下,第二网络设备与第一网络设备可以是同一网络设备。
其中,数据2属于第二SIM卡的数据。第二SIM卡可以记为card2。
其中,第二发射通道的通道数量可以是一条,也可以是多条。第二发射通道的通道数量可以记为TxNum_card2。示例性的,以图3a为例(或以图7中的(b)为例),第二发射通道包括射频Tx2通道,TxNum_card2的取值为1。第二SIM卡对应的调制解调器所在频段(band)记为NR Band-B。
其中,第一发射通道与第二发射通道重叠,包括但不限于如下3种情况:
情况1,第一发射通道的全部通道与第二发射通道的全部通道相同。例如,第一发射通道与第二发射通道均包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道。
情况2,第一发射通道中的一部分通道与第二发射通道中的一部分通道相同,且第一发射通道中的另一部分通道与第二发射通道中的另一部分通道不同。例如,在终端设备包括射频Tx1通道、射频Tx2通道和射频Tx3通道的情况下,第一发射通道包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道,第二发射通道包括射频Tx2通道和射频Tx3通道。
情况3,第一发射通道中的一部分通道与第二发射通道中的全部通道相同。例如,在终端设备包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道的情况下,第一发射通道包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道,第二发射通道包括射频Tx2通道。
示例性的,第一发射通道的通道数量和第二发射通道的通道数量满足:第一发射通道的通道数量与第二发射通道的通道数量之和大于终端设备的射频通道能力。终端设备的射频通道能力是指,终端设备配置的射频Tx通道数量。以图3a为例,终端设备的射频通道能力为2。第一发射通道的通道数量和第二发射通道的通道数量之间满足如下公式:
TxNum_card1+TxNum_card2>RF_TxCapability    公式(1)
其中,TxNum_card1表示第一发射通道的通道数量,TxNum_card2表示第二发射通道的通道数量,RF_TxCapability表示终端设备的射频通道能力。
通过上述公式(1)可知,终端设备在某些射频通道(如射频Tx通道)上,采用分时复用(time division multiplexing,TDM)发送方式,既传输了第一SIM卡的数据,又传输了第二SIM卡的数据,如图7中的(b)所示。
需要说明的是,第一发射通道的通道数量与第二发射通道的通道数量之和小于或等于终端设备的射频通道能力,即第一发射通道和第二发射通道的通道数量不满足上述公式(1)的情况下,但第一发射通道与第二发射通道重叠,终端设备仍可以通过执行S603至S606来解决上行数据冲突的问题。其中,S603至S606的介绍如下:
S603、终端设备通过第一发射通道向第一网络设备发送第一请求信息。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第一请求信息。
其中,第一发射通道的说明可以参见S601的介绍,此处不再赘述。第一请求信息请求减少用于传输第一SIM卡的数据的通道数量。第一请求信息的实现方式有多种,包括但不限于如下两种示例:
示例一、第一请求信息包括第一探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS),以引导第一网络设备实现MIMO回退。其中,第一SRS至少指示第一发射通道中部分通道对应的信道质量。第一SRS的数量为至少一个。对于第一网络设备而言,第一SRS是用于信道估计或信道探测的已知信号,所以,第一网络设备基于第一SRS能够确定第一调度信息。其中,第一SRS的数量介绍如下:
例如,第一SRS的数量与第三发射通道的通道数量一致。以图3a为例,第一发射通道的通道数量为2。在采用MIMO回退的方式下,用于传输第一SIM卡的通道数量减少,第三发射通道的通道数量为1,第一SRS的数量为1。也就是说,终端设备通过发射一个第一SRS,以向第一网络设备上报一个发射通道对应的信道质量,从而引导第一网络设备实现MIMO回退。
再如,第一SRS的数量与第一发射通道的通道数量一致。其中,部分第一SRS与预设编码信号的相似度大于阈值,且上述部分第一SRS的数量等于第三发射通道的通道数量。仍以图3a为例,第一发射通道的通道数量为2。在采用MIMO回退的方式下,用于传输第一SIM卡的通道数量减少,第三发射通道的通道数量为1,第一SRS的数量为2,且两个第一SRS中有一个第一SRS是基于第一网络设备配置的基序列生成的,另一个第一SRS未基于第一网络设备配置的基序列生成。如此,在两个第一SRS中,基于配置的基序列生成的第一SRS与预设编码信号的相似度大于阈值,另一第一SRS(未基于配置的基序列生成的第一SRS)与预设编码信号的相似度小于阈值。如此,第一网络设备基于第一SRS的与预设编码信号的相似度,确定信道质量,执行 MIMO回退。
需要说明的是,第三发射通道的说明如下:第三发射通道与第二发射通道不重叠。第三发射通道的数量可以是一条,也可以是多条。但第三发射通道的通道数量小于第一发射通道的通道数,且第三发射通道与第二发射通道的通道数量之和小于或等于终端设备的射频通道能力。仍以图3a为例,第二发射通道为射频Tx2通道,第三发射通道为射频Tx1通道。如此,终端设备通过不同的射频通道发送第一SIM卡的数据和第二SIM卡的数据。
示例二、第一请求信息包括第一参数。其中,第一参数指示第一发射通道中能够用于数据传输的通道数量,以实现MIMO回退。
例如,第一请求信息可以是UE辅助信息(UE assistance information),第一参数可以是UE辅助信息(UE assistance information)中的参数。第一参数可以是以下至少一项:
第一项、reducedMIMO-LayersFR1-UL。其中,reducedMIMO-LayersFR1-UL指示终端设备低频要降低到的上行MIMO层数。示例性的,reducedMIMO-LayersFR1-UL指示的上行MIMO层数与第三发射通道的通道数量一致。
第二项、reducedMIMO-LayersFR2-UL。其中,reducedMIMO-LayersFR2-UL指示终端设备高频要降低到的上行MIMO层数。示例性的,reducedMIMO-LayersFR2-UL指示的上行MIMO层数与第三发射通道的通道数量一致。
也就是说,终端设备向第一网络设备上报自身期待的MIMO层数,以实现MIMO回退。
需要说明的是,在S603中,以第一SIM为例介绍了MIMO回退过程。当然,终端设备也可以针对第二SIM来实现MIMO回退过程,具体调整哪一SIM卡的射频通道,终端设备的确定过程如下:
首先,终端设备分别确定第一发射通道和第二发射通道的通道数量,包括如下两种情况:
第一种情况、第一发射通道的通道数量大于1,且第二发射通道的通道数量等于1。终端设备针对第一SIM卡执行MIMO回退过程,即终端设备执行S603。
第二种情况、第一发射通道的通道数量大于1,且第二发射通道的通道数量大于1。终端设备针对不同的场景来确定针对哪一SIM卡执行MIMO回退过程。示例性的,下面示出了两种场景的介绍:
第一种场景,在第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡的业务建立时间不同的情况下,仍以调整第一SIM卡对应的射频通道数量进行介绍,S603的具体实现包括:在第一链路的建立时间晚于第二链路的建立时间的情况下,终端设备向第一网络设备发送第一请求信息。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第一请求信息。其中,第一链路是第一SIM卡与第一网络设备之间的链路。第二链路是第二SIM卡与第二网络设备之间的链路。
由于链路的建立时间可以指示业务的建立时间,所以,若第一链路的建立时间晚于第二链路的建立时间,则表明终端设备先发起的第二SIM卡的业务,后发起的第一SIM卡的业务。此种情况下,终端设备先调整后发起业务的SIM卡的射频通道,即调 整第一SIM卡对应的射频通道,以保证在先发起业务的稳定性。
容易理解的是,在第二链路的建立时间晚于第一链路的建立时间的情况下,终端设备向第二网络设备发送请求消息,以请求减少用于传输第二SIM卡的数据的通道数量,此处不再赘述。
第二种场景,在第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡发生小区切换的时间不同的情况下,本申请实施例数据传输方法包括如下步骤:
步骤1、第一网络设备向终端设备发送第一切换命令。相应的,终端设备通过第一接收通道接收来自第一网络设备的第一切换指令。
其中,第一接收通道可以是一条通道。示例性的,以图3a为例(或以图7中的(a)为例),第一接收通道包括射频Rx1通道。
其中,第一切换指令为第一SIM卡指示待切换的目标小区,第一切换指令指示的目标小区所在频段与第一发射通道对应。
步骤2、第二网络设备向终端设备发送第二切换命令。相应的,终端设备通过第二接收通道接收来自第二网络设备的第二切换指令。
其中,第二接收通道可以是一条通道。示例性的,以图3a为例(或以图7中的(a)为例),第二接收通道包括射频Rx2通道。
其中,第二切换指令为第二SIM卡指示待切换的目标小区,第二切换指令指示的目标小区所在频段与第二发射通道对应。
也就是说,第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡均发生了小区切换。S603具体包括:在第一切换指令的接收时刻晚于第二切换指令的接收时刻的情况下,终端设备向第一网络设备发送第一请求信息。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第一请求信息。
如此,在第一切换指令的接收时刻晚于第二切换指令的接收时刻的情况下,表明终端设备先执行第二SIM卡的小区切换过程,后执行第一SIM卡的小区切换过程。此种情况下,终端设备先调整后发生小区切换的SIM卡的射频通道,即调整第一SIM卡对应的射频通道,以保证在先发生切换的SIM卡的业务稳定性。
容易理解的是,在第二切换指令的接收时刻晚于第一切换指令的接收时刻的情况下,终端设备向第二网络设备发送请求信息,以请求减少用于传输第二SIM卡的数据的通道数量,此处不再赘述。
S604、第一网络设备向终端设备发送第一调度信息。相应的,终端设备通过第一接收通道接收来自第一网络设备的第一调度信息。
其中,第一调度信息指示第一SIM卡的数据的传输资源,第一调度信息指示的传输资源对应的通道数量与第三发射通道的通道数量一致。示例性的,第一调度信息包括下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)。也就是说,第一网络设备通过DCI为终端设备指示MIMO退回后的传输资源。
S605、终端设备通过第三发射通道向第一网络设备发送数据3。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的数据3。
其中,数据3是第一SIM卡在数据1之后待传输的数据。
示例性的,以图7中的(c)为例,第三发射通道为射频Tx1通道。此种情况下,终端设备通过射频Tx1通道发送数据3。
S606、终端设备通过第二发射通道向第二网络设备发送数据4。相应的,第二网络设备接收来自终端设备的数据4。
其中,数据4是第二SIM卡在数据2之后待传输的数据。
示例性的,以图7中的(c)为例,第二发射通道为射频Tx2通道。此种情况下,终端设备通过射频Tx2通道发送数据4。
需要说明的是,在移动环境下,第一网络设备基于信道监测结果等因素,存在如下可能:第一网络设备在执行S604之后,重新为终端设备指示了传输资源,且重新指示的传输资源对应第一发射通道,终端设备重新通过第一发射通道发送第一SIM卡的数据,进入TDM模式。此种情况下,终端设备重新执行MIMO回退过程,具体参见S603和S604的介绍,此处不再赘述。
在一些实施例中,若第二SIM卡的数据传输结束,则终端设备退出双卡并发。此种情况下,终端设备执行MIMO恢复过程,具体参见图8示出的步骤:
S801、终端设备释放第二发射通道的第二链路。
其中,第二发射通道的说明可以参见S602的介绍,此处不再赘述。第二链路是第二SIM卡与第二网络设备之间的链路。也就是说,终端设备不再传输第二SIM卡的数据,如在图9中的(a)中,采用虚直线表示。
S802、终端设备通过第三发射通道向第一网络设备发送第二请求信息。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第二请求信息。
其中,第二请求信息请求恢复用于传输第一SIM卡的数据的通道数量。第二请求信息的实现方式有多种,包括但不限于如下两种示例:
示例一、第二请求信息包括第二SRS,以引导第一网络设备实现MIMO恢复。其中,第二SRS指示第一发射通道的全部通道的信道质量。第二SRS的数量与第一发射通道的通道数量一致。对于第一网络设备而言,第二SRS是用于信道估计或信道探测的已知信号,所以,第一网络设备基于第二SRS能够确定第二调度信息。
例如,以图3a为例,第一发射通道的通道数量为2。为了实现MIMO恢复,用于传输第一SIM卡的通道数量增多,此种情况下,第二SRS的数量为2。也就是说,终端设备通过发射两个第二SRS,以向第一网络设备上报两个发射通道(如射频Tx1通道、射频Tx2通道)分别对应的信道质量,从而引导第一网络设备实现MIMO恢复。
示例二、第二请求信息包括第二参数。其中,第二参数指示第一发射通道能够数据传输,以实现MIMO恢复。第二请求信息可以是UE辅助信息,第二参考可以是reducedMIMO-LayersFR1-UL,或reducedMIMO-LayersFR2-UL,详见S603的介绍,此处不再赘述。
也就是说,终端设备向第一网络设备上报自身期待的MIMO层数,以实现MIMO恢复。
S803、第一网络设备向终端设备发送第二调度信息。相应的,终端设备通过第一接收通道接收来自第一网络设备的第二调度信息。
其中,第一接收通道的说明可以参见S604的介绍,此处不再赘述。
其中,第二调度信息指示第一SIM卡的数据的传输资源,第二调度信息指示的传输资源对应的通道数量与第一发射通道的通道数量一致。示例性的,第二调度信息是 DCI。
S804、终端设备通过第一发射通道向第一网络设备发送数据5。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的数据5。
其中,数据5是第一SIM卡在数据1之后待传输的数据。如图9中的(b)所示,第一发射通道包括射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道,终端设备分别通过射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道发送数据5。
如此,在第二SIM卡的数据传输结束之后,终端设备还能够通过上述S801至S804实现MIMO恢复,恢复第一SIM卡数据传输的通道数据,以提升第一SIM卡的数据传输速率,提高数据吞吐量。
另外,本申请实施例还提供另外两种“调整上行射频通道”的示例:
示例一,上行射频通道交换的方式。例如,终端设备在不同小区间进行切换,在小区切换前后跨不同频段(band)的情况下,终端设备可以交换上行射频通道,来实现双卡数据发送的非竞争性和时域上的连续性。下面,通过如下五个步骤进行介绍:
步骤1,终端设备通过第一发射通道向第一网络设备发送第一SIM卡的数据。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第一SIM卡的数据。
示例性的,参见图10中的(a),在小区切换前,第一SIM卡的频段为新无线(new radio,NR)频段A,记为NR Band-A,NR Band-A工作在射频Tx1通道上。第一发射通道为射频Tx1通道。
步骤2,终端设备通过第二发射通道向第二网络设备发送第二SIM卡的数据。相应的,第二网络设备接收来自终端设备的第二SIM卡的数据。
其中,第一发射通道与第二发射通道互不重叠。
示例性的,参见图10中的(a),在小区切换前,第二SIM卡的频段为NR频段B,记为NR Band-B,NR Band-B工作在射频Tx2通道上。第二发射通道为射频Tx2通道。
步骤3,第一网络设备向终端设备发送切换指令。相应的,终端设备通过第一接收通道接收来自第一网络设备的切换指令。
其中,切换指令为第一SIM卡指示待切换的目标小区。切换指令指示的目标小区所在频段与第二发射通道对应。
示例性的,参见图10中的(a),终端设备的第一SIM卡发生小区切换,切换后的频段为NR频段C,记为NR Band-C。在NR Band-C工作在射频Tx2通道上,无法工作在射频Tx1通道。之后,终端设备确定NR Band-B也可以工作在射频Tx1通道上,即第二SIM卡的工作带宽包括第一发射通道对应频段。如此,终端设备互换第一SIM卡的射频通道与第二SIM卡的射频通道,即终端设备执行步骤4和步骤5:
步骤4,终端设备通过第二发射通道向第一网络设备发送第一SIM卡的数据。相应的,第一网络设备接收来自终端设备的第一SIM卡的数据。
示例性的,参见图10中的(b),在小区切换后,终端设备通过射频Tx2通道向第一网络设备发送第一SIM卡的数据。
步骤5,终端设备通过第一发射通道向第二网络设备发送第二SIM卡的数据。相应的,第二网络设备接收来自终端设备的第二SIM卡的数据。
示例性的,参见图10中的(b),在小区切换后,终端设备通过射频Tx1通道向第二网络设备发送第二SIM卡的数据。
也就是说,终端设备通过通道互换的方式,来发送双卡上行数据,避免上行数据发送冲突。
示例二,上行射频通道调整的方式。
参见图11,终端设备至少配置有三条射频Tx通道,分别记为射频Tx1通道、射频Tx2通道、射频Tx3通道。终端设备执行S601和S602,即第一SIM卡的频段NR Band-A工作在射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道上,第二SIM卡的频段NR Band-B工作在射频Tx2通道上,如图11中的(a)所示。然后,终端设备确定NR Band-B也可以工作在射频Tx3通道上。如此,终端设备仍通过第一发射通道(即射频Tx1通道和射频Tx2通道)发送第一SIM卡的数据,且通过射频Tx3通道发送第二SIM卡的数据,以使双卡数据在时域上的并发,如图11中的(b)所示。
以上是通过“上行射频通道灵活调度的发送方式”来解决上行数据冲突的问题,从而实现双卡数据发送的非竞争性和时域上的连续性。另外,本申请实施例还提供另一种技术方案,即通过调整不同载波上的数据量,来降低上行数据冲突的概率。此种技术方案描述称为“上行数据灵活调度的发送方式”。例如,在无法通过MIMO回退、通道交换或通道调整的方式,无法解决上行数据冲突的问题时,可以通过“上行数据灵活调度的发送方式”,在一定程度上降低上行数据冲突的概率,具体参见图12所示的步骤:
S1201、终端设备确定第一数据和第二数据。
其中,第一数据和第二数据均属于第一SIM卡的数据,且第一数据通过第一载波发送,第二数据通过第二载波发送。
例如,以SA场景为例,参见图13中的(a),第一载波与第二载波属于同一网络。第一载波为NR CC0,第二载波为NR CC1。第一载波对应的发射通道为射频Tx0通道,第二载波对应的发射通道为射频Tx1通道。第一SIM卡的数据包括PDU-1~PDU-j。以j为偶数为例,第一数据包括PDU-j/2+1~PDU-j,第二数据包括PDU-1~PDU-j/2。
再如,以NSA场景为例,参见图14中的(a),第一载波与第二载波属于不同网络。第二载波为LTE CC1。第一载波、发射通道、第一数据和第二数据的介绍可以参见图13中的(a)的介绍,此处不再赘述。
S1202、终端设备通过第三载波向第二网络设备发送第二SIM卡的数据。相应的,第二网络设备通过第三载波接收来自终端设备的第二SIM卡的数据。
其中,第一载波与第三载波未复用同一发射通道,第二载波与第三载波复用同一发射通道。
例如,参见图13中的(a)或图14中的(a),第三载波为NR CC2。第二载波与第三载波复用射频Tx1通道。
也就是说,终端设备采用分时复用发送方式,通过同一发射通道(如图13和图14中的射频Tx1通道)发送了双卡的上行数据。其中,第一载波可以描述为DSDA载波,第二载波可以描述为DSDS载波。此种情况下,终端设备执行S1203和S1204:
S1203、终端设备通过第一载波向第一网络设备发送第一数据和第三数据。相应的,第一网络设备通过第一载波接收来自终端设备的第一数据和第三数据。
其中,第三数据属于第二数据。仍以图13中的(b)或图14中的(b)为例,第三数据包括PDU-k+1~PDU-j/2。
S1204、终端设备通过第二载波向第一网络设备发送第四数据。相应的,第一网络设备通过第二载波接收来自终端设备的第四数据。
其中,第四数据属于第二数据。仍以图13中的(b)或图14中的(b)为例,第四数据包括PDU-1~PDU-k。
由S1203和S1204可知,终端设备将第二数据中的一部分数据,即第三数据,从第二载波转移到第一载波上发送,以减少第一SIM卡的数据在第二载波上的分配量。由于第二载波和第三载波复用同一发射通道,并且,第一SIM卡的数据在第二载波上的分配量减少,从而降低了双卡上行数据的冲突概率。并且,在独立组网(standalone,SA)场景下,终端设备通过MAC层调度,实现了卡内模内的数据分流。在非独立组网(non-standalone,NSA)场景下,终端设备通过PDCP层调度,实现了卡内模间的数据分流。
在一些实施例中,终端设备确定满足预设条件的情况下,才执行S1203和S1204。其中,预设条件包括以下至少一项:
第一项,发送第二SIM卡的数据的载波为第三载波。也就是说,第二SIM卡的数据仅通过第三载波传输。对于第二SIM卡来说,不存在DSDA载波。
第二项,第一SIM卡的数据的优先级低于第二SIM卡的数据的优先级。例如,第一SIM卡的数据属于非语音业务数据,第二SIM卡的数据属于语音业务数据。
在预设条件满足第一项的情况下,即第二SIM卡的数据只能通过第三载波来传输,终端设备执行S1203和S1204,既保证了第一SIM卡与第一网络设备之间的数据正常传输,又保证了第二SIM卡与第二网络设备之间的数据正常传输,还能够降低双卡上行数据冲突的概率。
在预设条件满足第二项的情况下,即第二SIM卡的数据优先级较高,终端设备执行S1203和S1204,以保证高优先级业务的传输质量,还能够降低双卡上行数据冲突的概率。
在一些实施例中,终端设备的物理层监测第二载波(即DSDS载波)的冲突率,并上报到MAC层。MAC分流调度模块根据冲突率,调整MAC分流比率,即确定第三数据的数据量大小,让冲突率保持在合理范围,保证两卡的上行发送发挥最大潜力。示例性的,终端设备可以通过如下两种方式来实现:方式一,终端设备先将第二载波上的第二数据流完全停止,使得第二载波的数传没有冲突,再按照一定的步长逐步调整分流比例。同时,终端设备检测冲突率是否都满足设定的冲突率有效窗。以表1为例,有效窗为10%~12%。如果低于有效窗的最低门限,如表1中的10%,可以进一步减小第三数据的数据量。反之,如果高于有效窗的最高门限,如表1中的12%,可以进一步增大第三数据的数据量。由于终端设备所处的信道环境始终存在变化,所以,终端设备可以依据冲突率来调整第三数据的数据量大小。其中,冲突率也可以替换为重传率或误码率,MAC可以替换为PDCP。

另外,针对支持双PS连接的终端设备,应用层在两卡都建立PS连接,同时进行上行数据传输。应用层能够灵活在双卡间动态分流,具体参见如下两个示例的介绍:
示例一,第二载波与第三载波复用同一发射通道。终端设备可以停止调度第一SIM卡和第二SIM卡中一个SIM卡的业务数据。例如,在第二SIM卡的调制解调器的吞吐量小于第一SIM卡的调制解调器的吞吐量的情况下,终端设备仍通过第一载波和第二载波向第一网络设备发送第一SIM卡的数据。相应的,第一网络设备通过第一载波和第二载波接收来自终端设备的第一SIM卡的数据。并且,终端设备不通过第三载波发送第二SIM卡的数据,以避免双卡的上行数据发生冲突,避免频繁的数据传输。
示例二,双卡是完全的DSDA载波。通过如下两个步骤进行介绍:
步骤1,终端设备确定第一载波和第二载波。
其中,第一载波用于传输第一SIM卡的第一数据,第二载波用于传输第二SIM卡的第二数据。第一载波和第二载波未复用同一发射通道。
示例性的,以图15中的(a)为例,第一载波为NR CC0,第二载波为LTE CC1。应用层的数据包括PDU-1~PDU-j。第一SIM卡的第一数据包括PDUj/2+1~PDU-j,第一SIM卡的第二数据包括PDU-1~PDU-j/2。第一载波通过射频Tx0通道发射第一数据,第二载波通过射频Tx1通道发射第二数据。
步骤2,终端设备根据两个载波中每一载波的空口传输能力和授权资源量,确定每一载波上的数据量。
其中,步骤2中的两个载波是指步骤1中的第一载波和第二载波。空口传输能力是基于以下因素的至少一项确定的:网络的带宽、调制阶数、或无线链路质量等。
例如,以图15中的(b)为例,第一载波的空口传输能力优于第二载波的空口传输能力,且第一载波的授权资源量大于第二载波的授权资源量,所以,终端设备加大第一载波上传输的数据量。也就是说,终端设备将第二数据中的一部分数据(如PDU-k+1~PDU-j/2),从第二载波转移至第一载波上发送,以使得两卡的上行发送发挥到最大潜力。
通过图13至图15可知,终端设备提供三种动态分流机制:
第一种,卡内模内的不同载波间分流控制机制,如图16所示。即通过MAC层调整上行数据在不同载波上的数据量,详见S1203和S1204中关于MAC层的描述。
第二种,卡内模间的不同载波间分流控制机制,如图16所示。即通过PDCP层调整上行数据在不同载波上的数据量,详见S1203和S1204中关于PDCP层的描述。
第三种,卡间的分流控制机制,如图16所示。即通过应用层调整上行数据在不同载波上的数据量,详见示例一和示例二中关于应用层的描述。上述主要从终端设备的角度对本申请实施例提供的方案进行了介绍。可以理解的是,终端设备为了实现上述功能,其包含了执行各个功能相应的硬件结构和/或软件模块。结合本申请中所公开的实施例描述的各示例的单元及算法步骤,本申请实施例能够以硬件或硬件和计算机软件的结合形式来实现。某个功能究竟以硬件还是计算机软件驱动硬件的方式来执行, 取决于技术方案的特定应用和设计约束条件。本领域技术人员可以对每个特定的应用来使用不同的方法来实现所描述的功能,但是这种实现不应认为超出本申请实施例的技术方案的范围。
