接入小区的方法、通信装置及网络设备

技术领域
本申请通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种接入小区的方法、通信装置及网络设备。
背景技术
在无线通信系统中,由于终端的移动性或者小区信道环境的变化等因素影响,终端可以接入新的小区,例如从源小区切换到目标小区,或者添加目标小区为主辅小区(primary secondary cell,简称PSCell),以获得更好的数据传输质量。
由于在接入目标小区的过程中,终端侧使用的第一通信配置将会更新为与目标小区对应的第二通信配置,但是终端在接入目标小区之前所接入的基站(不在同的场景下,该基站可以是主基站或源基站)仍会使用第一通信配置与该终端进行通信,这将会导致在终端接入目标小区的过程中,主基站或源基站与终端之间传输的信息如信令和数据传输出错。

具体实施方式
下面结合本申请实施例中的附图对本申请的实施例进行描述。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书及上述附图中的术语“包括”和“具有”以及它们任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含。例如包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、系统、产品或设备没有限定于已列出的步骤或单元,而是可选地还包括没有列出的步骤或单元,或可选地还包括对于这些过程、方法、产品或设备固有的其它步骤或单元。
请参照图1,为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的架构示意图。其中,可以包括终端10、第一网络设备20以及可选的第二网络设备30。
其中,终端10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)。所述终端可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑(pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑设备、虚拟现实(virtual reality,简称VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,简称AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端设备、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端设备、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,以及还可以包括用户设备(user equipment,简称UE)等。
第一网络设备20和第二网络设备30均为网络设备,网络设备是无线网络中的设备,例如将终端设备接入到无线网络的无线接入网(radio access network,简称RAN)节点。目前,一些RAN节点的举例为:gNB、传输接收点(transmission reception point,简称TRP)、演进型节点B(evolved Node B,简称eNB)、无线网络控制器(radio network controller,简称RNC)、节点B(Node B,简称NB)、基站控制器(base station controller,简称BSC)、基站收发台(base transceiver station,简称BTS)、家庭基站(例如,home evolved NodeB,或home Node B,简称HNB)、基带单元(base band unit,简称BBU),或无线保真(wireless fidelity,简称Wifi)接入点(access point,简称AP)、接入回传一体化(integrated access and backhaul,简称IAB)等。在一种网络结构中,网络设备可以包括集中单元(centralized unit,简称CU)节点、或分布单元(distributed unit,简称DU)节点、或包括CU节点和DU节点的RAN设备。在一种网络结构中,集中单元CU节点可以划分为控制面(CU-CP)和用户面(CU-UP)。其中CU-CP负责控制面功能,主要包含无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)和分组数据汇聚协议-控制面(Packet Data Convergence Protocol control panel,简称PDCP-C)。PDCP-C主要负责控制面数据的加解密,完整性保护,数据传输等。CU-UP负责用户面功能,主要包含服务数据适配协议(Service Data Adaptation Protocol,简称SDAP)和分组数据汇聚协议-用户面(Packet Data Convergence Protocol control panel user panel,简称PDCP-C)。其中SDAP主要负责将核心网的数据进行处理并将flow映射到承载。PDCP-U主要负责数据面的加解密,完整性保护,头压缩,序列号维护,数据传输等。其中CU-CP和CU-UP通过E1接口连接。CU-CP代表CU通过Ng接口和核心网连接。通过F1-C(控制面)和DU连接。CU-UP通过F1-U(用户面)和DU连接。当然还有一种可能的实现是PDCP-C也在CU-UP。
在本申请实施例中,终端10由于位置变化或者原来接入的小区信道质量变化等原因,可以接入到其他的小区。本申请涉及在不同通信场景下终端接入小区的不同流程,以下将做介绍。
在多空口双连接(Multi-Radiodual connectivity,简称MR-DC)的场景下,一个终端可能和多个基站通信,这多个基站中包括一个主基站(master node,简称MN)和一个激活的辅基站(secondary node,简称SN),其中,控制面连接建立在主基站和核心网之间;而数据面连接可以建立在主基站和核心网之间,和/或,建立在辅基站与核心网之间。主基站和辅基站的通信制式可以相同也可以不同,例如主基站是eNB且辅基站是gNB,或者,主基站和辅基站都是gNB。MR-DC可以简称为DC。DC也可以被理解为属于多连接(multiple connection,简称MC)的一种类型,在MC的场景中,终端可以接入主基站和至少一个辅基站,也就是说,除了上述DC的场景,终端可以接入主基站以及两个或两个以上辅基站。
在DC场景中,主基站管理一个主小区,辅基站管理一个主辅小区。当终端需要切换主辅小区或者接入到新的主辅小区时,可以触发条件主辅小区(primary secondary cell,简称PSCell)增加和改变(conditional pscell addition&change,简称CPAC)的流程,以实 现终端接入到新的主辅小区的目的。网络侧(如主基站或辅基站)事先配置多个候选的PSCell,网络侧会通知终端这些候选PSCell的配置以及每个候选PSCell对应的增加或改变的条件,后续当终端判断这个条件满足了,终端就直接接入到满足条件的候选PScell。采用CPAC,无需等待终端上报测量报告之后再下发新的PSCell配置给终端,因此可以用于缩短增加或改变PSCell所需的时延,此外,针对例如辅基站触PCell改变的场景,避免PSCell信号质量快速改变时,无法通过信令无线承载(signalling radio bearer,简称SRB)3上报测量报告和下发重配消息,从而提高了PSCell改变的鲁棒性。
在MC场景中,终端可以连接一个主基站以及至少两个辅基站,网络侧(如主基站或辅基站)会配置多个候选的辅基站,通过主基站下发给终端,但是终端并不会去判断是否触发辅基站的改变而是等待网络侧的指示信息,当终端接收到网络侧让其向某个候选的辅基站接入或切换时,且可以由主基站或辅基站触发终端进行辅基站的接入或切换以实现目标小区的接入或切换。其中,辅基站的改变包括辅基站的增加以及切换,辅基站的增加表示终端接入一个新的辅基站,接入之后,终端接入的基站数目增加1个;辅基站的切换表示终端从一个辅基站切换到另一个辅基站,切换之后,终端接入的基站数目没有变化。
在单连接场景中的切换过程中,提出了一种双激活协议栈(Dual Active Protocol Stack,简称DAPS)的切换方式,可以实现0ms移动中断时延的要求(要求上行、下行均做到0ms或接近0ms中断)。该切换方式包括:源小区给终端发送切换消息后,可以与目标小区之间进行数据转发。在切换过程中,源小区和终端之间的数据传输不中断,目标小区和源小区可以都给终端发送下行数据,从而缩减数据传输的中断时间。当终端完成在目标小区的接入后,且在接收到目标小区发送的释放终端和源小区之间的连接的释放消息之前,终端继续和源小区进行数据传输(包括上行和/或下行数据传输);当终端接收到目标小区发送的用于释放终端和源小区之间的连接的释放消息后,终端释放其与源小区的连接。并由目标小区发切换成功消息告知源小区切换完成;源小区收到切换成功消息后,停止源小区与终端的上行/下行数据传输,并将最后一个数据传输序列号发给目标小区。
另外,在条件切换(Conditional Handover,简称CHO)过程中,源小区在源链路质量较好时向终端发送CHO配置信息,CHO配置信息中可以包括CHO触发条件和一个或多个候选小区的信息,其中候选小区的信息可以包括候选小区的小区全球标识(cell global identifier,简称CGI),或者,候选小区的物理小区标识(physical cell identifier,简称PCI)以及候选小区对应的频率信息。终端在接收到该CHO配置信息后,根据该CHO配置信息判断候选小区是否满足CHO触发条件,将满足CHO触发条件的某候选小区作为目标小区。然后,终端与确定出的目标小区进行随机接入过程,当随机接入成功完成,终端给目标小区发送RRC消息(如RRC重配置完成消息),通知目标小区条件切换完成。CHO的触发是由终端决定的,在CHO开始切换到切换成功之间源小区是无感知的。
通过结合上述DAPS和CHO,终端可以根据CHO配置的触发条件实现低时延甚至零时延的小区切换。
结合图1所示,例如终端10原来接入第一网络设备20管理的小区,在DAPS结合CHO的场景中,当满足CHO的触发条件时,终端可以根据触发条件切换到第二网络设备30管理的小区,或者切换到第一网络设备20管理的其他小区;又例如,在DC场景中,第一网络设备20为主基站,第二网络设备30可以为新增的辅基站或终端当前已接入的辅基站,当满足CPAC的触发条件时,终端可以接入新增的第二网络设备20管理的主辅小区或者切换到其他辅基站如第三网络设备(图1未示)管理的主辅小区上;又例如,在MC场景中,当第二网络设备 20作为辅基站指示终端10进行小区切换时,终端10可以切换到其他的辅基站如第三网络设备(图1未示)管理的小区或者接入新增的其他辅基站如第三网络设备管理的小区。但是,在这些过程中,都可能存在终端10与第一网络设备20之间的通信配置不匹配的问题,导致二者之间的信息传输出错。因此,需要一种方法来提升信息传输的可靠性。下面将对本申请接入小区的方法进行详细说明。
请参见图2,图2为本申请实施例提供的一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图,该方法可以由终端或者用于终端的装置例如芯片执行,以下以终端执行该方法为例进行说明。
该方法包括如下步骤:
S201.终端确定接入目标小区。
可选地,接入目标小区包括进行单连接场景、双连接场景以及多连接场景下的小区切换,还包括单连接场景切换到双连接场景、双连接场景以及多连接场景下接入当前通信系统内新增的一个小区,例如在双连接场景或多连接场景的CPAC流程中,就包括了PSCell的增加和切换。
可选地,终端确定接入目标小区可以由第一网络设备如基站将小区切换的条件以及备选的各个目标小区的信息发送给终端。当终端检测到满足小区切换的条件时,终端便可以确定要切换到的目标小区;例如在双连接场景中,终端可以根据CPAC的触发条件触发接入目标小区;又例如在DAPS结合CHO的场景中,终端可以根据CHO的触发条件触发接入目标小区。
或者,也可以由第一网络设备或其他网络设备指示终端进行切换,此时,终端将接收切换到所述目标小区的切换指示信息,从而确定切换到目标小区。例如在多连接场景中,可以由主基站或辅基站向终端发送切换指示信息,指示终端切换到目标小区。
S202.终端基于第一通信配置向第一网络设备发送第二通信配置对应的指示信息。
可选地,所述指示信息可以是一条消息或一个信令。
指示信息可以指示终端要接入的目标小区,也可以指示终端要更新的通信配置。指示信息与第二通信配置的对应关系可以包括:指示信息指示目标小区,且目标小区采用第二通信配置。第一网络设备接收到指示信息后可以确定目标小区是哪个,然后确定目标小区对应的第二通信配置。或者,指示信息与第二通信配置的对应关系也可以包括:指示信息指示通信配置标识,且通信配置标识指示第二通信配置,即终端可以通知第一网络设备要更新到哪个通信配置,第一网络设备根据该通信配置的标识确定终端要切换的目标小区及对应的第二通信配置。或者,在DAPS结合CHO的场景下,由于终端在切换过程中会同时和源小区和目标小区存在信息传输,则指示信息可以指示终端要切换的目标小区或者通知源小区调整终端的上行发送功率,可选地,还可以通知源小区该终端上行发送功率降低的幅度、MCS或MIMO层数等。源小区所属的基站收到该指示信息后,便可以根据指示信息将第一通信配置更新为第二通信配置,由于第二通信配置是根据指示信息中携带的内容确定的,因此二者存在对应关系。
其中,第一通信配置为终端未确定接入目标小区之前使用的通信配置,该通信配置与第一网络设备使用的通信配置相同。所述第一通信配置中包括一个或多个用于终端与第一网络设备之间通信的配置参数如秘钥、发送信息的频段、发送信息时的最大传输功率等。可选地,还可以包括MCS、MIMO层数等调度相关的参数。关于第二通信配置包含的配置参数类型与第一通信配置类似,不做赘述。
其中,秘钥用于两个设备对传输的数据进行加密和解密;发送信息的频段用于为终端和第一网络设备之间的信息传输提供频谱资源,使得二者的通信不受其他频段的信号干扰;发送信息时的最大传输功率则用于调整上行发送信息时终端侧的发送功率;MCS用于配置终端 和第一网络设备之间信息传输时的调制和编码方案;MIMO层数用于配置终端和第一网络设备之间信息传输时多输入多输出的层数,提升频谱利用率。
终端确定进行小区切换后,一般会立即使用与目标小区对应的第二通信配置,第二通信配置通常与第一通信配置不同,即上述的各种参数中如秘钥、发送信息的频段和发送信息时的最大传输功率等至少包括一项不同。从而导致终端与第一网络设备之间的通信配置不匹配。在本申请实施例中,终端在确定接入目标小区后,将使用第一通信配置向第一网络设备发送第二通信配置对应的指示信息,通知第一网络设备终端将要接入的目标小区。这样第一网络设备在收到该指示信息之后,便可以确定与目标小区对应的第二通信配置并在收到指示信息后使用第二通信配置。从而实现在小区接入的过程中,终端与第一网络设备均使用第二通信配置进行通信直到小区接入完成。
S203.终端接收所述第一网络设备发送的第一确认信息。
第一确认信息用于通知终端,基站已收到指示信息。
第一确认信息可以是确认(confirm)消息或响应(response)消息或应答(acknowledgement,ack)消息等。
S204.终端基于所述第二通信配置向所述第一网络设备发送接入通知消息。
当终端收到第一网络设备的第一确认信息之后,便可以开始使用第二通信配置向第一网络设备发送接入通知消息。此时,由于第一网络设备已经开启第二通信配置的使用,因此第一网络设备可以正常接收到终端发送的信息。
可选地,在步骤S204之后,终端基于所述第二通信配置与所述第一网络设备进行通信。
其中,所述第二通信配置是更新所述第一通信配置得到的。
当终端或第二网络设备要将第一通信配置更新为第二通信配置时,可以直接激活第二通信配置并使用,或者,也可以将第一通信配置中的参数进行修改,例如修改发送信息时的最大传输功率等然后激活修改后的参数,完成第一通信配置更新为第二通信配置的过程。
在本申请实施例中,在第一网络设备使用第一通信配置时,终端也使用第一通信配置,发送一个指示信息来通知第一网络设备将要接入的小区,使得第一网络设备可以确定目标小区相匹配的第二通信配置,在小区接入的后续流程中,终端和第一网络设备都可以使用第二通信配置进行通信,终端与第一网络设备的通信配置不匹配导致信息传输出错的问题,提高了终端与第一网络设备之间传输信息的可靠性,提升了小区接入的效率和整个系统的工作效率。
请参见图3,图3为本申请实施例提供的另一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图;具体包括如下步骤:
S301.终端确定接入目标小区。
S302.终端基于第一通信配置向第一网络设备发送接入通知消息。
终端在确定接入目标小区之后,通常会直接使用与目标小区对应的第二通信配置。而此时第一网络设备仍然在使用第一通信配置,从而导致二者的通信配置不匹配。在本申请实施例中,终端在确定接入目标小区之后,可以先不使用第二通信配置,而是继续使用第一通信配置向第一网络设备发送接入通知消息。这样,第一网络设备仍然能使用第一通信配置正常的接收终端发送的信息。
S303.终端接收所述第一网络设备发送的第二确认信息。
第二确认信息用于通知终端,第一网络设备已经知道终端要接入其他小区。此时第一网络设备也可以开始使用第二通信配置。
S304.终端基于所述第二通信配置与所述第一网络设备进行通信。
接收到第一网络设备第二确认信息之后,终端便可以将当前使用的第一通信配置切换或更新或直接使用第二通信配置来与第一网络设备进行通信。
在本申请实施例中,终端在确定接入目标小区之后,不立即使用与目标小区对应的第二通信配置来发送接入通知消息,而是在第一网络设备使用第一通信配置时,终端也使用第一通信配置来发送接入通知消息,在接收到第一网络设备发送的第二确认信息之后,再使用第二通信配置与第一网络设备进行通信,此时第一网络设备在接收到接入通知消息后也已经开始使用第二通信配置。从而避免了在发送接入通知消息时,终端与第一网络设备的通信配置不匹配导致信息传输出错的问题,提高了终端与第一网络设备之间传输信息的可靠性,提升了小区接入的效率和整个系统的工作效率。
在图2-图3所示实施例的基础上,以下将通过图4-图8所示的实施例,从终端和第一网络设备交互信息的角度,结合具体场景对本申请中接入小区的方法进行详细说明。
请参见图4,图4为本申请实施例提供的CPAC场景下一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图;
在CPAC场景下,图2中所示的第一网络设备为主基站,目标小区为终端待切换的目标主辅小区或者为待接入的新增目标主辅小区,且目标小区为辅基站管理的小区,第一通信配置和第二通信配置为MCG配置,在终端接入目标主辅小区的过程中,会存在终端与主基站之间的MCG配置不匹配的问题。以下将以CPAC场景下结合图2所示实施例,对本申请提供的接入小区的方法进行说明。该方法包括:
S401.主基站向第一辅基站发送辅基站增加请求(SN addition request)。
S402.主基站接收第一辅基站发送的辅基站增加请求应答(SN addition request ack)。
S403.主基站向第二辅基站发送辅基站增加请求。
S404.主基站接收第二辅基站发送的辅基站增加请求应答。
需要说明的是,在多连接的场景下,辅基站的数目可以是大于一个,当辅基站的数目大于一个时,此时主基站可以向各个辅基站发送步骤S401中的请求,并接收各个辅基站的响应。为了便于描述,图4中仅示出两个辅基站。
主基站通过向一个或多个辅基站发送辅基站增加请求。可以向这些辅基站请求获取CPAC的信息如每个辅基站对应的CPAC的触发条件、主辅小区的通信配置如主辅小区对应的MCG配置和SCG配置等。
S405.终端接收主基站发送的RRC重配置(RRC Reconfiguration)消息。其中,RRC重配置消息中包括了上述多个辅基站对应的CPAC的触发条件及主辅小区的通信配置。
S406.终端检测到第一辅基站对应的CPAC的触发条件满足。从而,终端可以确定要接入的目标小区为第一辅基站管理的目标主辅小区。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S201。
在本实施例中,终端将增加第一辅基站管理的小区为主辅小区或从源主辅小区切换到第一辅基站管理的目标主辅小区。
如果终端切换到第一辅基站管理的目标主辅小区,则会与源主辅小区断开连接。
S407.终端基于第一通信配置向主基站发送指示信息。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S202。
该指示信息用于指示所述终端添加或待切换的目标主辅小区为第一辅基站管理的主辅小区。当属于添加主辅小区时,第一通信配置为终端处于单连接状态时主基站对应使用的MCG配置;当属于切换主辅小区时,第一通信配置为与源主辅小区对应的MCG配置。可选地,第 一通信配置还可以包括SCG配置,SCG配置中包含的参数种类与MCG类似,此处不再赘述。
由于与目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置主基站在步骤S401-步骤S404的过程中已经知晓,因此当终端向主基站发送该指示信息后,主基站便能确定使用与目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置。
MCG配置中可以包括但不限于用于对数据加密和解密的秘钥,发送信息的频段,发送信息时的最大传输功率,MCS,MIMO的层数等,具体描述请见前述实施例中的介绍,此处不再赘述。
可选地,所述指示信息包括如下至少一项:所述目标主辅小区的标识、与所述目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置信息的标识或与所述目标主辅小区对应的前导码。
指示信息的发送方式可以如下:
方式一:终端可以向主基站发送一个RRC消息,指示满足触发增加PSCell的条件,并且指示是哪一个PSCell(例如可以是目标主辅小区的标识,也可以是与所述目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置信息的标识)。可选的,也可以由RRC层通知PHY或者MAC CE去发送这个指示消息,这样在流程上更快。
方式二:终端可以向主基站发起一个随机接入(Random Access Channel,简称RACH)的过程,主基站会为不同的PSCell配置不同的前导码(preamble)。然后主基站可以通过终端发起RACH所使用的RACH资源来判断终端所要切换的PSCell。需要注意的是,PSCell与preamble的映射关系可以在S405中为终端配置,之后终端只需要向主基站发送一个preamble就可以了。RACH过程可能由MAC层触发,也可能由RRC层触发,此处不做限制。
S408.主基站向终端发送第一确认信息。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S203。
其中,所述第一确认信息可以是一个确认消息,例如,针对方式一,主基站可以向终端回复RRC确认消息,或者通过PHY或者MAC层回复一个确认消息。对于方式二,主基站可以向终端回复一个随机接入响应消息,或者也可以回复一个确认消息。本申请实施例不做任何限定。
S409.主基站切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。第二通信配置为与目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置。可选地,第二通信配置还可以SCG配置。
S410.终端切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。
S411.终端基于第二通信配置向主基站发送RRC重配置完成消息。该步骤对应于图2中步骤S204。RRC重配置完成消息中包括终端用于通知第一辅基站的SN RRC重配置完成消息。
在该步骤中,由于终端与主基站此时都使用第二通信配置,因此不会存在MCG不匹配的问题。
S412.主基站将SN RRC重配置完成消息发送给第一辅基站。
在步骤S412之后,主基站与终端之间发送和接收信令以及数据传输都不会再有MCG配置不匹配的问题。
请参见图5,图5为本申请实施例提供的CPAC场景下另一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图;在该场景下,图3中所示的第一网络设备为主基站,目标小区为终端待切换的目标主辅小区或者为待接入的新增目标主辅小区,且目标小区为辅基站管理的小区,第一通信配置和第二通信配置为MCG配置。以下将以CPAC场景下结合图3所示实施例,对本申请提供的接入小区的方法进行说明,其中,步骤S501-步骤S506与图4中步骤S401-步骤S406相同,此处不再赘述,在步骤S506之后,还包括如下步骤:
S507.终端保持使用第一通信配置,当属于添加主辅小区时,第一通信配置为与终端处于单连接状态时主基站对应使用的MCG配置;当属于切换主辅小区时,第一通信配置为与源主辅小区对应的MCG配置。可选地,第一通信配置还可以包括SCG配置。
S508.终端基于第一通信配置向主基站发送RRC重配置完成消息。该步骤对应于图3中步骤S302。RRC重配置完成消息中包括终端用于通知第一辅基站的SN RRC重配置完成消息。
S509.主基站向第一辅基站发送SN RRC重配置完成消息,通知第一辅基站终端要接入第一辅基站的主辅小区。
S510.终端切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。第二通信配置为与目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置。可选地,第二通信配置还可以包括SCG配置。
S511.终端与第一辅基站完成目标主辅小区的切换。
关于向切换主辅小区的具体过程,本申请不做赘述,例如可以参考3GPP通信协议中描述的任意一种实现方式。
S512.主基站切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。
即当终端与目标主辅小区完成了主辅小区添加或切换的过程后,主基站可以根据切换的主辅小区更新相应的MCG配置。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,步骤S512的流程也可以在步骤S508之后执行,本申请实施例不作任何限定。
请参见图6,图6为本申请实施例提供的DAPS结合CHO场景下一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图;
在DAPS结合CHO的场景下,虽然能够保证CHO的0毫秒切换,但是由于在切换小区的过程中,终端将同时和源小区和目标小区进行数据传输,但由于终端能力的限制,其对应于每一个小区的功率会减少,这会导致终端的上行传输能力降低。由于在切换过程中源小区是不感知的,所以源小区并不知道终端对于它的发送功率降低了,如果在这个过程中,源小区还让终端发送很多数据的话,会导致大量的数据传输错误。因此可以在该场景下使用本申请如图2或图3所示实施例中所述的一种接入小区的方法,由于基站可以管理多个小区,因此源小区和目标小区可以属于同一个基站管理,也可以属于不同的基站管理,在本实施例中,以源小区和目标小区位于不同的基站为例进行说明,当二者位于相同的基站时,将“源基站”替换为“源小区”,“目标基站”替换为“目标小区”即可。以下将以DAPS结合CHO的场景,结合图2所示实施例,对本申请提供的接入小区的方法进行说明。该方法包括如下步骤:
S601.源基站向第一目标基站发送切换请求(handover request,HO request)。
S602.第一目标基站向源基站发送切换请求应答(handover request acknowledge,HO request ack)。
S603.源基站向第二目标基站发送切换请求。
S604.第二目标基站向源基站发送切换请求应答。
需要说明的是,目标基站的数目可以是一个或多个,当目标基站的数目大于一个时,此时源基站可以向各个目标基站发送步骤S601中的请求,并接收各个目标基站的响应。为了便于描述,图6中仅示出两个目标基站。
源基站通过向一个或多个目标基站发送切换请求。可以向这些目标基站请求获取CHO的信息如每个目标基站对应的CHO的触发条件、目标小区的通信配置如目标小区对应的上行传输功率等。
S605.终端接收源基站发送的DAPS结合CHO的配置消息。其中,配置消息中包括了上述 多个目标基站对应的CHO的触发条件及目标小区的通信配置。
S606.终端检测到第一目标基站对应的CHO的触发条件满足。从而,终端确定要接入的目标小区为第一目标基站管理的目标小区。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S201。
在本实施例中,将切换到第一目标基站管理的目标小区。
S607.终端基于第一通信配置向源基站发送指示信息。该步骤对应于图2中步骤S203。第一通信配置为终端未发起小区切换仅与源基站存在数据传输时使用的通信配置,包括发送信息时的最大传输功率,还可以包括MCS或MIMO的层数等调度相关的参数。所述指示信息用于通知源基站终端的上行发送功率下降。可选地,指示信息还可以指示终端上行功率下降的幅度或终端当前的最大上行传输功率等。
S608.源基站向终端发送第一确认信息。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S203。
可选地,源基站根据指示信息调整第一通信配置为第二通信配置,包括:根据上行发送功率下降的情况调整终端的上行发送功率,可选地,源基站还可以调整MCS、MIMO层数等调度相关的参数以及数据传输的数量。
若源基站仅根据终端上行发送功率的变化情况调整了上行发送功率,则终端侧可以不进行通信配置的调整,可以根据自身当前能力进行信息传输。
S609.终端与目标基站进行目标小区的切换过程中,终端与源基站保持连接。
具体的切换过程可以参见现有协议中描述的任意一种实现方式,此处不再赘述。
具体地,从该切换过程开始到完成,终端始终与源基站保持连接,也就是说,直到终端切换到目标小区,终端不断开与源基站的连接。
需要说明的是,在CHO的单一场景中,CHO的触发终端通常不会通知源基站。如果在DAPS结合CHO的场景中,需要通知源基站的话,则可以参照图5所示实施例的方法,终端使用第一通信配置发送接入通知消息,再将第一通信配置切换为或更新为第二通信配置,从而终端通过第二通信配置与主基站进行通信。此处不再赘述。
请参见图7,图7为本申请实施例提供的多连接场景下由辅基站触发的一种接入小区的方法的流程示意图。在多连接场景下,网络侧(如主基站或辅基站)可以配置多个候选的辅基站,通过主基站下发给终端,但是终端并不会去判断是否触发辅基站的改变,而是等待网络侧(如主基站或辅基站)的指示信息,当终端接收到网络侧让其添加某个候选的辅基站或切换到某个候选的辅基站时,终端会马上更新与该辅基站对应的MCG配置与SCG的配置。网络侧的切换指示信息可能是主基站发送的也可能是辅基站发送的。当终端连接的至少一个辅基站中的第一辅基站触发终端切换到目标小区时,主基站并不知道终端已经发生切换且MCG配置发生变化了,因此会存在主基站与终端之间MCG配置不匹配的问题。以下将以上述辅基站触发的辅基站改变的场景,结合图2所示实施例,对本申请提供的接入小区的方法进行说明。该方法包括如下步骤:
S701.主基站向目标辅基站发送辅基站增加请求。
S702.目标辅基站向主基站发送辅基站增加请求应答。
需要说明的是,目标辅基站的数目可以是一个或多个,当目标辅基站的数目大于一个时,此时主基站可以向各个目标辅基站发送步骤S701中的请求,并接收各个目标辅基站的响应。为了便于描述,图7中仅示出一个目标辅基站。
主基站通过向一个或多个目标辅基站发送辅基站增加请求。可以向这些目标辅基站请求 获取每个目标基站管理的目标小区的通信配置如目标小区对应的通信配置如MCG配置、SCG配置等。
S703.终端接收主基站发送的RRC重配置消息。其中,RRC重配置消息中包括了上述多个目标辅基站对应的目标小区的通信配置。
S704.终端接收源辅基站发送的切换指示。从而,终端可以确定要接入的目标小区。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S201。
可选地,切换指示也可以由其他的辅基站发送。
S705.终端基于第一通信配置向主基站发送指示信息。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S202。
所述指示信息用于指示所述终端切换的目标小区。
第一通信配置的描述请参见图4所示实施例中的描述,此处不再赘述。
所述指示信息为:所述目标小区的标识或与所述目标小区对应的MCG配置的标识。
S706.主基站向终端发送第一确认信息。
该步骤可以参考图2中步骤S203。
S707.主基站切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。第二通信配置为与目标小区对应的MCG配置。可选地,第二通信配置还可以包括SCG配置。
S708.终端切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置。
S709.终端与目标辅基站完成切换过程。
关于向目标辅基站切换的具体过程,本申请不做赘述,例如可以参考3GPP通信协议中描述的任意一种实现方式。
S710.终端基于第二通信配置向主基站发送切换成功消息。该消息可以是RRC重配置完成消息,也可能是其他消息,本申请实施例不做任何限定。
需要说明的是,在双连接或者多连接的场景中,若需要结合图3所述的接入小区的方法来完成小区切换,对应步骤S302,如果终端需要向主基站发送接入通知消息的话,则可以参照图3及图5所示实施例的方法,终端先使用第一通信配置发送接入通知消息,在终端与目标辅基站完成切换之后,对应于图3步骤S303之后,终端再将第一通信配置切换为或更新为或直接使用第二通信配置,后续终端通过第二通信配置与主基站进行通信。此处不再赘述。
此外,在用户面,由于用于数据包加密的模块在终端单连接状态时位于主基站,而在终端双连接或多连接状态时,用于加密的模块即PDCP实体可能从主基站变到辅基站,而反之,也可能从辅基站变到主基站。所以会导致,主基站在用旧的秘钥发数据,但是辅基站在用新的秘钥接收数据,所以会导致在主基站更新秘钥配置之前终端都无法正常的接收数据。为了解决该问题,请参见图8,图8为本申请实施例提供的CPAC场景下的一种小区接入的方法的流程示意图。该方法可包括如下步骤:
S801.终端确定满足CPAC的触发条件。
S802.终端向主基站发送秘钥指示信息,所述秘钥指示信息用于指示所述主基站使用第一通信配置中的秘钥或使用第二通信配置中的秘钥进行数据解密。
对应地,在主基站侧,主基站在向终端发送RRC重配置消息至接收终端发送的RRC重配置完成消息的过程中,也可以向终端发送秘钥指示信息。
当属于添加主辅小区时,第一通信配置为与终端处于单连接状态时主基站对应使用的MCG配置;当属于切换主辅小区时,第一通信配置为与源主辅小区对应的MCG配置。所述第二通信配置为与目标主辅小区对应的MCG配置。
S803.当所述终端和所述主基站均使用第二通信配置之后,停止发送所述秘钥指示信息。
可选地,所述秘钥指示信息包含在所述终端向所述第一网络设备发送的数据包中;
或者,所述秘钥指示信息通过介质接入MAC CE或者PDCP控制信息发送给所述第一网络设备。
可选地,所述MAC CE或PDCP控制信息指示所述终端使用的秘钥以及使用所述秘钥加密的数据包编号;
或者,所述MAC CE或PDCP控制信息指示所述终端使用的秘钥以及使用所述秘钥加密数据包的预设时间段。
针对上述两种方式,发送端设备(此处为上行,终端为发送端设备,下行时主基站为发送端设备)需要确定数据包编号或预设时间段来进行预估,根据发送端设备的预估能力可以选择上述两种方式中的任意一种。预估数据包编号需要更高的能力,但在传输延时的情况下,使用数据包编号来进行指示可以获得更好的传输效果。使用预设时间段来进行指示对终端的能力要求更低,适合很多的设备使用。
秘钥指示信息可以是具体的秘钥,也可以是一个标识,例如可以用0代表使用第一通信配置中的秘钥,用1代表使用第二通信配置中的秘钥。
需要说明的是,上述秘钥指示的方式既可以用于现有的CPAC流程,也可以与本申请实施例中小区接入的方法配合使用,请一并参见图4和图8,在图4所示的实施例中,对于主基站接收上行数据来说,当终端确认了主基站已经收到指示信息并且更新了候选PSCell所对应的MCG配置即步骤S409之后,由于主基站已更新MCG配置,而终端还没完成MCG配置更新,在这个过程中,终端可以在步骤S409以及步骤S410之间的发送数据包加上秘钥指示信息。终端与主基站的秘钥不匹配的时间段在图4中S409-S410之间,所以时间比较短,所以发送秘钥指示信息的时间段包括这段时间即可。或者,也可以在步骤S406之后通过MAC CE或PDCP控制信息发送秘钥指示信息。
对于终端接收下行数据来说,图4步骤S410之后终端和主基站的通信配置是相同的,但是在步骤S406之后,以及在步骤S409主基站更新第二通信配置之前主基站已经发送了一些数据包,这些数据包用的是第一通信配置中的秘钥,所以终端收到的数据包也不知道到底是用第一通信配置中的秘钥还是用第二通信配置的秘钥加密过。所以,在主基站更新为第二通信配置后发送的数据包的包头中都可以携带一个秘钥指示信息,这样终端收到这些数据包时就知道该用哪种秘钥解密。或者,也可以在步骤S406之后通过MAC CE或PDCP控制信息发送秘钥指示信息。
当然,也可以默认携带秘钥指示就使用第二通信配置的秘钥解密,未携带秘钥指示就使用第一通信配置的秘钥解密。
请一并参见图5和图8,从图5中S510-S512,即终端更新MCG配置到主基站更新MCG配置期间,终端与主基站之间有一段时间的MCG不匹配的现象,所以在图5的S510-S512期间的上下行数据传输都可以携带秘钥指示信息。由于这段时间比图4中S409-S410的时间更长,因此采用秘钥指示的方式收获的增益更大,因为如果不携带秘钥指示信息的话,在图5的S510-S512期间发送的用户面数据包都无法成功被接收,会浪费这段时间的空口资源。
通过本申请实施例中的秘钥指示方法,可以使得接收端能够成功地接收数据,节约空口资源,提升了数据传输的效率和成功率。
