下面介绍与本申请有关的技术名词。
1)数字孪生
数字孪生是充分利用物理模型、传感器更新、运行历史等数据,集成多学科、多物理量、多尺度、多概率的仿真过程,在虚拟空间中完成映射,从而反映相对应的实体装备的全生命周期过程。早期被提出用于实现战斗机维护工作的数字化,后在工业制造和智慧城市等领域应用。随着移动网络新业务出现和网络规模持续扩大,网络运营和维护复杂度高,创新技术落地部署困难。因此,数字孪生被认为是6G网络的重要方向之一,为移动网络提供全生命周期的智慧运维和智能自治。
2)复杂度和功耗
从第2代(2 th Generation,2G)、第3代(3 th Generation,3G)、第4代(4 th Generation,4G)到5G的发展历程来看,随着网络规模的不断扩展和复杂度的日益剧增,导致了网络架构的复杂冗余。按照已有网络发展趋势,支撑万物互联的6G网络的复杂度将呈几何级增长。目前业界普遍评估5G计算复杂程度会比4G调制解调器进一步提高10倍至20倍,延续此方向6G复杂度也将比5G至少高一个数量级,因此6G终端必将采取低复杂度设计方案。
手机电池容量不断增大,目前常见电池容量为4500mAh,但续航时间却跟4G手机一样,甚至更短。据相关机构测试数据,由于手机增加了收发天线数量,基带处理复杂度提升和5G网络部署覆盖情况等,目前5G手机的功 耗比4G手机的功耗大约高20%。
下面介绍本申请涉及的几种场景。
当数字孪生网络涉及终端时,对于调制解调器(modem)相关的数字孪生业务,需要对终端的协议功能进行定制。现有终端难以支持UE modem相关的数字孪生业务,因此需要解决UE modem级别的数字孪生问题。
例如:某运营商基于第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partner Project,3GPP)Rx(如R16)标准制定企业标准,该运营商商用网络中网络设备和手机终端均遵循企业标准。运营商在商用网络基础上,面向自身、互联网应用程序(Application,APP)厂商、设备商、终端厂商等提供数字孪生网络业务。当数字孪生网络业务为潜在商用的新技术提供数字孪生域验证时,通常需要在现有企业标准功能基础上,增量添加新功能特性。该新添加功能特性可能是标准定义的功能,也可能是在标准定义功能基础上轻量的自定义(非标)的小功能。具体举例场景如下所示。
当运营商将数字孪生网络作为新的一种业务向终端厂商、设备商等提供时,具体场景至少包括如下:终端公司解决和验证modem功能,设备商基于某个版本协议提供新功能,运营商根据业务需要上线新功能。
场景1:运营商网络运维优化部门正在进行网络优化研发,其中需要使用Ry(如R17)新定义的功能(如定位增强等),那么在该新技术研发过程中需要验证该方案的性能,并进行迭代优化。或者设备商在研发网络新技术过程中也可能需要使用R y(如R17)新定义的功能(如工业场景中NR-light的部分功能)。因此,对于例子中所述的遵从基于Rx(如R16)企业标准的手机终端上述功能更新无法通过现有信令或网管配置来实现。当上述新技术研发中使用运营商提供的数字孪生业务进行端到端新技术验证时,需要更新数字孪生UE侧的协议软件功能。一种潜在时分复用的数字孪生方案是基于用户授权的前提下,在凌晨时段通过空口将数字孪生用户的协议软件功能发送给用户,并安装使用。数字孪生结束后,再恢复到商用网络中UE所使用的协议软件。在UE侧硬件支持的情况下,上述需UE侧安装和使用的协议软件可能来自于运营商、设备商等,并不局限于芯片商或终端商。并且上述新技术验证通常需要网络侧设备、甚至应用层功能对等支持,故此更新流程需 要网络侧对上述流程进行统一的控制,发送和指示UE侧完成协议软件更新。
场景2:终端公司的modem中新增功能(例如新定义的非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)消息)或优化通信性能时,研发过程中需要网络设备配合验证。自行搭建验证环境往往有人力投入多,设备成本高等问题,并且难以实现运营商网络中所有设备提供商的网络设备对接验证,并且难以遍历商用网络中不同网络覆盖、组网情况。基于上述数字孪生业务可支持终端公司的新技术验证,但需在UE侧硬件支持和用户授权的情况下,通过协议软件功能下载和安装的方式来实现数字孪生UE。因此,需要网络侧对上述流程进行统一的控制,发送和指示UE侧完成协议软件更新,以及对数字孪生UE进行配置等。上述终端侧协议功能在线升级对行业网场景的行业终端也十分必要,因为行业环境部署安装的限制,行业终端通常使用周期比普通用户终端长,因此在使用的过程中需要面向新功能进行终端侧的协议软件在线升级。
场景3:上述场景1中所使用的新功能也可能是潜在的R z(如R18)技术,从当前时间点来看是未标准化的功能。或者也可能是运营商或设备商基于上述(R16)企标上自定义的轻量功能,因此,上述功能无法通过现有信令或网管配置来实现。类似场景1,需要进行UE侧软件功能的更新来进行验证。进一步面向6G网络,一种潜在方案是基于标准定义的物理层(或者和部分媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC))技术,(部分)MAC及以上功能通过空口交互的协议软件下载和更新来支持不同业务需求。在该技术方案下,网络和终端需要进行协议软件下载和更新的交互。

可选的,所述部分协议功能文件包括:协议功能描述和协议功能文件, 所述协议功能描述包括以下至少一项:协议功能的参考模板或参考功能、协议功能指示、协议接口指示、所更新的协议功能文件长度指示和协议功能标识符。
所谓部分协议功能文件,是指不需要包括各个层的协议功能配置信息,可以仅更新部分层的协议功能配置信息,例如PDCP层。
部分协议功能文件,例如更新添加一种PDCP新定义的头压缩功能软件。因此,相关消息内容包括协议功能描述和协议功能软文件,其中协议功能描述包括协议功能的参考模板/功能(例如可以为R16-PDCP)、协议功能指示、协议接口指示、协议软件长度指示和/或协议功能标识符等。
3)基于历史下载的协议功能的增量协议功能文件。
可选的,所述基于历史下载的协议功能的增量协议功能文件包括:协议功能描述和协议功能文件,所述协议功能描述包括以下至少一项:协议功能的参考模板或参考功能(例如历史下载的协议软件标识为××的协议软件功能)、增量协议功能的插入位置信息(例如第1000bytes的位置)、所更新的协议功能文件长度指示和协议功能标识符。
上述协议功能标识符也可作为协议功能的参考模板或参考功能,从而可基于上述标识符所代表的版本增量更新。
上述步骤1中,可由一条或多条消息完成,一种可行的方案是基站通过MAC CE仅发送协议功能描述,如上述协议功能指示、协议接口指示、所更新的协议功能文件长度指示和/或协议功能标识符等。协议功能文件则通过用户面发送,此时需定义专用的逻辑信道,以便于UE侧可将其从MAC PDU中识别出来,并安装更新,此方案更适用于大的协议功能软件下载。
步骤2:终端根据上述协议功能配置信息,对协议功能软件进行更新。
如果完成该协议功能软件更新,那么UE向基站发送更新完成消息。如果更新完成且UE仅支持所更新的协议功能软件,那么UE删除旧协议功能软件。如果更新成功且该UE可支持多个协议功能软件,那么网络侧可通过RRCreconfiguration向UE发送该更新成功的协议功能的使用规则配置。
如果该协议功能软件更新失败,那么终端向网络侧设备发送更新失败消息,并删除所更新的协议功能软件。
本发明实施例二:基于RRC消息的终端协议功能的更新方法
请参考图5,该终端协议功能的更新方法包括:
步骤1:网络设备通过RRC信令向终端发送第一业务的协议功能软件更新请求protocol software update(即上述实施例中所述的第二协议功能更新请求),所述协议功能软件更新请求包括以下至少一项:配置的协议功能范围,所述协议功能范围包括以下至少一项:物理层协议功能、高层用户面协议功能、高层控制面协议功能、NAS协议功能和应用层协议功能。
可选的,MAC CE中还可以包括:所请求的协议功能软件的业务类型和所请求更新的协议功能软件(即第一业务的协议功能软件配置信息)。
所述协议功能配置信息的内容参见实施例一,不再重复描述。
上述步骤1中,可由一条或多条消息完成,一种可行的方案是基站通过RRC信令仅发送协议功能描述,如上述协议功能指示、协议接口指示、所更新的协议功能文件长度指示和/或协议功能标识符等。协议功能文件则通过DRB发送,此时需在PDCP PDU header中指示该用户面数据包为协议功能软件文件,以便于UE侧可将其从PDCP PDU中识别出来,并安装更新,此方案更适用于大的协议功能软件下载。
步骤2:终端根据上述协议功能配置信息,对协议功能软件进行更新。
2a:如果完成该协议功能软件更新,那么UE向基站发送RRC更新完成消息protocol software update complete。如果更新完成且UE仅支持所更新的协议功能软件,那么UE删除旧协议功能软件。如果更新成功且该UE可支持多个协议功能软件,那么网络侧可通过RRCreconfiguration向UE发送该更新成功的协议功能的使用规则配置。
2b:如果该协议功能软件更新失败,那么终端向网络侧设备发送更新失败消息protocol software update failure,并删除所更新的协议功能软件。

步骤2a:如果有可用的协议软件,则AMF向UE发送协议软件功能更新接受消息。对于协议功能软件的传输方式,一种是通过NAS信息下发,此时需要注意因为NAS消息有最大长度限制(例如NR是9000bytes),如果协议软件大于NAS消息最大长度,那么需要支持分段和重组;另一种方式是通过用户面发送,那么需要提供该业务标识(例如类似IMS定义protocol software update service),以便UE端的基带处理单元可以识别和使用。协议功能软件更新情况同实施例一。
步骤2b:如果没有可能的协议软件,则向UE发送协议软件功能更新拒绝消息。
步骤3:如果该协议功能更新由核心网其它网络功能支持,图上以xNF为例。那么AMF需支持该消息透传,xNF根据请求消息和/或UE上下文信息和/或UE签约信息等,分析是否有可用的协议功能软件。
步骤4.1a:如果xNF有可用的协议功能软件,同步骤2a处理流程;
步骤4.1b:如果没有,xNF则向UE发送协议软件功能更新拒绝消息。
步骤5:可选的,UE上报协议软件更新状态。
