本申请实施例中涉及的网络设备也可称为无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)设备。RAN设备与终端设备连接,用于接收终端设备的数据并发送给核心网设备。RAN设备在不同通信系统中对应不同的设备,例如,在2G系统中对应基站与基站控制器,在3G系统中对应基站与无线网络控制器(Radio Network Controller,RNC),在4G系统中对应演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,eNB),在5G系统中对应5G系统,如新无线(New Radio,NR)中的接入网设备(例如gNB,集中单元CU,分布式单元DU)。
物理下行控制信道:physical downlink control channel,简称PDCCH,是一组物理资源粒子的集合,承载上下行控制信息。PDCCH主要承载着物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,简称PUSCH)和物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,简称PDSCH)信道控制信息。在一个子帧内,可以有多个PDCCH。UE首先要解调PDCCH中的下行控制信息(downlink control information,简称DCI),才能够在相应的资源位置上解调对应的PDSCH,包括广播消息、寻呼消息等。
无线网络临时标识:Radio Network Tempory Identity,简称RNTI。网络设备向终端设备发送RNTI加扰的下行控制信道,终端设备可以基于RNTI加扰的下行控制信道中的指示信息接收下行数据信道,其中,不同的RNTI可以对应不同的下行数据信道。通信系统中存在多种RNTI,本申请实施例中主要涉及寻呼RNTI(paging RNTI,简称P-RNTI),P-RNTI用于标识寻呼消息的传输,其中,寻呼的P-RNTI是所有终端设备共用的。终端设备可以通过P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH确 定P-RNTI对应的PDSCH占用的资源,从而获取承载在PDSCH上的寻呼消息。
RRC状态:终端设备和网络设备之间通过无线信道相互通信,彼此交换信息,因此终端设备和网络设备之间需要一种控制机制来交换信息并达成一致,这种控制机制就是RRC。在LTE中,RRC状态包括RRC空闲态(RRC_IDLE)和RRC连接态(RRC_CONNECTED)。在5G NR中,除了RRC空闲态和RRC连接态外,还引入了RRC非激活态(RRC_INACTIVE)。在RRC非激活态下,终端设备与网络设备之间处于非连接状态,但是仍部分保留终端设备的上下文,同时在RRC非激活态下,终端设备可通过寻呼消息等快速切换到RRC连接态。
RRC_IDLE:移动性为基于UE的小区选择重选,寻呼由CN发起,寻呼区域由CN配置。基站侧不存在UE AS上下文。不存在RRC连接。
RRC_CONNECTED:存在RRC连接,基站和UE存在UE AS上下文。网络侧知道UE的位置是具体小区级别的。移动性是网络侧控制的移动性。UE和基站之间可以传输单播数据。
RRC_INACTIVE:移动性为基于UE的小区选择重选,存在CN-NR之间的连接,UE AS上下文存在某个基站上,寻呼由RAN触发,基于RAN的寻呼区域由RAN管理,网络侧知道UE的位置是基于RAN的寻呼区域级别的。
寻呼:NR系统的寻呼主要有3种应用场景,分别是核心网发起的寻呼、gNB发起的寻呼和gNB发起的系统信息更新的通知。核心网发起的寻呼主要是针对处于RRC_IDLE状态的UE,gNB发起的寻呼主要是针对处于RRC_INACTIVE状态的UE,而gNB发起的系统信息更新的通知则可能针对任意一个RRC状态的UE。
寻呼消息是承载在PDSCH上的,UE在接收寻呼消息之前,首先要监听PDCCH,当PDCCH上携带有P-RNTI时,UE从PDCCH上获取解调PDSCH的信息,并根据PDCCH上指示的解调PDSCH的相关参数去接收PDSCH,从而获取承载在PDSCH上的寻呼消息。
下行控制信息:DCI,可以用于指示或传输下行调度信息,例如可以调度用于承载寻呼消息的PDSCH,调度信息可以包括频域资源、时域资源、功率控制命令或调制编码方式等。本申请实施例中,DCI可以为paging DCI,paging DCI可以表示用于调度承载寻呼消息的PDSCH的控制信息,或用于指示该控制信息只携带短消息的控制信息,或用于指示该控制信息只携带调度信息,或用于指示该控制信息携带短消息和调度信息的控制信息,或用于指示短消息的控制信息。paging DCI可以是使用P-RNTI加扰的。
系统信息更新周期:在NR系统中,系统信息(System Information,简称SI)包括主信息块(MIB,Master Information Block)以及一系列的系统信息块(SIB,System Information Block)。当小区的一些系统参数发生变更时,例如SIB1中的部分参数发生变更时,UE可以通过接收P-RNTI的DCI获得系统信息变更指示。除了地震和海啸预警系统(Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System,简称ETWS)/商用移动预警系统(Commercial Mobile Alert System,简称CMAS)通知,系统信息只能在特定的无线帧进行变更,将变更的时间称作更新周期。在同一个更新周期内,将会根据其调度发送相同内容的系统信息。系统信息更新周期在系统信息中进行配置。
当网络设备改变了系统信息之后,将会在更新周期通知UE,即只有在下一个更新周期,网络设备才会传输更新后的系统信息。UE一旦收到系统信息变更指示,UE将从下一个更新周期内开始获取新的系统信息,而在UE获取到新的系统信息之前,将一直使用之前的系统信息进行传输。
图1为本申请实施例提供的系统信息更新示意图,如图1所示,当网络设备要更新系统信息时,网络设备先在第n个系统信息更新周期内重复发送系统信息变更指示,系统信息变更指示用于指示UE需要进行系统信息变更。然后,网络设备在第n+1个系统信息更新周期内重复发送变更的系统信息。
系统信息变更周期的边界定义为满足系统帧号(System Frame Number,简称SFN)SFN mod=0的SFN,其中,m为一个系统信息更新周期包含的SFN个数。
m=modificationPeriodCoeff*defaultPagingCycle,其中,modificationPeriodCoeff为系统信息更新周期系数,defaultPagingCycle为默认寻呼中周期。modificationPeriodCoeff和defaultPagingCycle这两个参数均由网络设备广播确定。
系统信息更新周期适用于除了SIB6,SIB7,SIB8,以及定位辅助数据以外的系统信息的更新。在NR中,Paging DCI中的短消息(short message)用于通知系统信息更新指示,paging DCI所在的PDCCH通过P-RNTI加扰。
如果short message中的systemInfoModification取值为1,表示对于除了SIB6/SIB7/SIB8之外的其他系统信息要进行更新,则UE在下一个系统信息更新周期获取更新后的系统信息。
如果short message中的etwsAndCmasIndication取值为1,表示网络要发送ETWS和/或CMAS通知,则UE在收到short message之后立即重新读取SIB1,以及SIB6/SIB7/SIB8。

其中,包括网络设备201和终端设备202的网络还可以称为非地面通信网络(Non-Terrestrial Network,NTN),其中,NTN是指终端设备和卫星(还可以称为网络设备)之间的通信网络。
可以理解的是,本申请实施例的技术方案可应用于NR通信技术中,NR是指新一代无线接入网络技术,可以应用在未来演进网络,如未来第五代移动通信(the 5th Generation Mobile Communication,5G)系统中。本申请实施例中的方案还可以应用于无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WIFI)和长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)等其他无线通信网络中,相应的名称也可以用其他无线通信网络中的对应功能的名称进行替代。
本申请实施例描述的网络架构以及业务场景是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题,同样适用。
下面对本申请的相关技术背景进行说明。
当前,随着人们对速率、延迟、高速移动性、能效的追求以及未来生活中业务的多样性、复杂性,5G应运而生。5G的主要应用场景为:增强移动超宽带(eMBB)、低时延高可靠通信(URLLC)、大规模机器类通信(mMTC)。eMBB仍然以用户获得多媒体内容、服务和数据为目标,其需求增长十分迅速。另一方面,由于eMBB可能部署在不同的场景中,便如室内,市区,农村等,其能力和需求的差别也比较大。URLLC的典型应用包括:工业自动化,电力自动化,远程医疗操作(手术),交通安全保障等。mMTC的典型特点包括:高连接密度,小数据量,时延不敏感业务,模块的低成本和长使用寿命等。
为了能够提供更大的数据传输速率,提升用户体验,5G NR在4G基础上进一步增大了系统带宽。在5GNR中,对于6GHz以下频段,单载波支持的最大带宽为100MHz;对于6GHz以上频段,单载波支持的最大带宽为400MHz。
对于一个大的载波带宽,比如100MHz,终端设备需要使用的带宽往往非常有限。如果让终端设备始终在整个带宽上进行检测和测量,对终端设备的功耗将带来极大的挑战,不利于终端设备省电。因此,在5GNR中引入了BWP的概念,即在整个大带宽的载波内划分出一部分连续的带宽给终端设备进行数据收发。终端设备只需要在网络配置的这部分带宽内进行相关操作,从而起到终端设备节能的效果。
基于5G NR Rel-15标准规定,对于终端设备的每个服务小区,网络设备通过RRC重配置消息可以为终端设备在这个服务小区上配置一个或者多个BWP,可配置的最大BWP数目为4个。在每个时刻,终端设备在这个服务小区上只能有1个激活的上行BWP和1个激活的下行BWP,终端设备只能在激活的BWP上进行数据收发。考虑到终端设备业务的多样性以及不同业务特性的差异性等因素,终端设备可能会有调整BWP的需求。比如,当终端设备业务量较大希望获得高速率服务时,需要使用一个大带宽的BWP为这个终端设备进行数据传输;当终端设备业务量较小时,可以使用一个小带宽的BWP为这个终端设备进行数据传输。
图3为本申请实施例提供的BWP切换示意图,如图3所示,在0-t1时段,终端设备的业务量较大,此时可以将终端设备激活的BWP切换到一个大带宽的BWP上,即图3中的BWP1。在t1-t2时段,终端设备的业务量较小,此时可以将终端设备激活的BWP切换到一个小带宽的BWP上,即图3中的BWP2。在t2-t3时段,根据终端设备的业务需求,终端设备将激活的BWP切换到如图3示例的BWP3上等等。
根据图3的示例可知,通过BWP切换的方式可以改变终端设备在这个服务小区上激活的BWP。目前标准中支持的BWP切换方法有以下4种:
第一种,基于PDCCH的BWP切换。该切换方法是由网络设备控制的BWP切换。网络设备通过给单个终端设备发送小区无线网络临时标识(Cell-Radio Network Tempory Identity,简称C-RNTI)加扰的PDCCH,告知单个终端设备切换的目标BWP。
第二种,基于RRC重配置的BWP切换。该切换方法也是由网络设备控制的BWP切换。通过在RRC重配置消息中携带firstActiveDownlinkBWP-Id或者firstActiveUplinkBWP-Id,指示终端设备将激活的BWP切换为firstActiveDownlinkBWP-Id对应的BWP或者firstActiveUplinkBWP-Id 对应的BWP。
第三种,基于定时器超时的BWP切换。该切换方法为隐式方式的BWP切换。网络设备为终端设备的每个服务小区配置一个定时器bwp-InactivityTimer。如果终端设备当前激活的下行BWP是除默认BWP(default BWP)和初始BWP(initial BWP)以外的BWP,每次当终端设备在当前激活的BWP上收到指示该终端设备上行或下行调度的PDCCH,或者终端设备收到指示该终端设备在当前激活的BWP上上行或下行调度的PDCCH,都启动或重启定时器bwp-InactivityTimer。当定时器bwp-InactivityTimer超时时,终端设备自动切换到default BWP或者initial BWP,其中,default BWP和initial BWP均由RRC配置决定。
第四种,随机接入初始化引起的BWP切换。在RACH初始化过程中,如果终端设备在当前激活的上行BWP上没有配置随机接入时机,则终端设备自动将UL BWP切换到initial UL BWP,同时将DL BWP切换到initial DL BWP。
当前NR系统中,基站主要考虑终端设备业务量大小,基于C-RNTI加扰的PDCCH指示终端设备进行BWP切换,即业务量小时将终端设备切换到窄的BWP上,反之将终端设备切换到宽的BWP上。图4为本申请实施例提供的应用场景示意图,如图4所示,基站40服务的一个小区内包括终端设备41、终端设备42和终端设备43,其中,终端设备41、终端设备42和终端设备43均处于连接态。
通常,为了提高系统容量,小区内的连接态的终端设备不会被配置在相同的BWP上。例如,在图4的示例中,终端设备41当前激活的BWP为BWP1,终端设备42当前激活的BWP为BWP2,终端设备43当前激活的BWP为BWP3。即便当前每个终端设备只支持一个激活的BWP,但是从基站40的角度,由于要服务大量终端设备,基站40可能要使用更大的频域范围对小区内多个终端设备的业务数据进行收发,即基站40要打开的频域接收机范围远大于单个终端设备的收发带宽(例如激活的BWP带宽)。
打开更大的带宽进行收发可以提供更高的系统容量和传输效率,然而不利于基站节能。如果基站能够缩小数据收发的频域范围(例如收缩到initial BWP带宽上),那么接收机通道(例如射频通道)就可以相应减小,就可以节省基站的功耗。然而,为了让终端设备和网络保持一致,基站40需要逐一通知受影响的终端设备(例如图4中示例的终端设备41、终端设备42和终端设备43),即基站需要用C-RNTI加扰的PDCCH指示单个终端设备执行BWP切换。一方面,这会带来较大的信令开销,另一方面,可能由于PDCCH资源的限制,导致不能在短时间内完成所有受影响的终端设备的BWP切换,即会带来较大的时延,不能快速的做到基站节能。
基于上述技术问题,本申请实施例提供一种BWP切换方案,在节能PDCCH资源的前提下实现小区内的终端设备的BWP的切换。下面将对本申请的方案进行介绍。
图5为本申请实施例提供的切换方法的流程示意图,该方法应用于终端设备,终端设备处于连接态,如图5所示,该方法可以包括:
S51,基于寻呼监听获取指示信息。
在一个小区内包括多个连接态的终端设备,通常这多个连接态的终端设备被配置在不同的BWP上。由于网络设备需要服务大量终端设备,因此网络设备需要使用较大的频域范围对小区内的多个终端设备的业务数据进行首发,不利于网络设备的节能。
当网络设备需要缩小数据收发的频域范围以节能时,为了让终端设备和网络设备保持一致,网络设备需要指示终端设备进行BWP切换。
本申请实施例中,终端设备可以基于寻呼监听从网络设备获取指示信息。其中,寻呼监听用于寻呼过程相关数据的传输。寻呼监听可以包括监听的来自网络设备的P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH,还可以包括根据PDCCH中的寻呼下行控制信息接收的PDSCH。终端设备可以通过监听P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH获取指示信息,也可以通过接收PDSCH获取指示信息。
具体的,当连接态的终端设备当前激活的BWP上配置了公共搜索空间时,例如寻呼搜索空间时,终端设备可以在寻呼搜索空间上监听P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH,从而获取指示信息。在该实施方式中,指示信息例如可以位于寻呼下行控制信息中,终端设备通过在寻呼搜索空间上监听P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH获取到寻呼下行控制信息,从而在寻呼下行控制信息中获取到该指示信息。
当网络设备发送了寻呼消息时,指示信息也可以位于寻呼消息中。由于寻呼消息承载在PDSCH上,终端设备可以通过监听P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH获取寻呼下行控制信息,通过寻呼下行控制信息接收PDSCH,从而获取到承载于PDSCH上的寻呼消息,并获取到寻呼消息中的指示信息。
S52,根据指示信息,切换终端设备的带宽部分BWP。
终端设备获取该指示信息后,根据该指示信息,将终端设备当前激活的BWP切换至某一个目标BWP。由于网络设备是基于寻呼监听发送指示信息来指示终端设备进行BWP切换的,小区内的连接态的终端设备获取到的指示信息是相同的,因此小区内的连接态的终端设备在进行BWP切换后会切换到同一个BWP上。而网络设备在基于寻呼监听发送指示信息后,可以缩小数据收发的频域范围。其中,网络设备可以将收发的频域范围收缩到与终端设备切换后的BWP相同,也可以大于终端设备切换后的BWP。
本申请实施例提供的切换方法,终端设备基于寻呼监听获取指示信息,并根据指示信息切换终端设备的BWP,通过寻呼监听中寻呼过程相关数据的传输来传输指示信息,在空口进行寻呼过程相关数据的传输时,具有相同寻呼时机的终端设备的寻呼过程相关数据被汇总成一条,并通过寻呼信道传输给终端设备。因此,当网络设备要缩小数据收发的频域范围以节能时,只需要通过发送一次PDCCH进行寻呼过程相关数据的传输,就能够指示小区内所有的终端设备完成BWP切换,以保证与网络设备的一致,从而能够节省PDCCH资源,减小信令开销。
下面结合附图对本申请的方案进行详细介绍。
网络设备需要缩小数据收发的频域范围以节能时,需要指示终端设备进行BWP切换,即指示终端设备将当前激活的BWP切换至另一BWP上。本申请实施例中,网络设备基于寻呼监听发送指示信息,寻呼监听包括监听的来自网络设备的P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH,或者,根据PDCCH中的paging DCI接收的PDSCH。
当寻呼监听包括监听的来自网络设备的P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH时,指示信息可以位于pagingDCI中。终端设备通过监听PDCCH获取到paging DCI,从而获取该指示信息。该实施方式下,可以存在寻呼消息,也可以不存在寻呼消息。
当指示信息位于paging DCI中时,终端设备在获取paging DCI后,直接根据paging DCI就可以获取该指示信息。paging DCI是承载在PDCCH中的,当指示信息位于paging DCI中时,一种可能的实现方式是,指示信息可以位于paging DCI中的paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特,另一种可能的实现方式是,指示信息也可以位于paging DCI的短消息中的预留比特。
针对paging DCI format 1_0,以下信息通过paging DCI format 1_0传输,CRC由P-RNTI加扰:
短消息指示符-2比特。
短消息-8比特。如果只携带paging的调度信息,则保留该比特字段。
Figure PCTCN2021112153-appb-000001
比特。如果只携带短消息,则保留该位字段,其中,
Figure PCTCN2021112153-appb-000002
为控制资源集CORESET 0的大小。
时域资源分配-4比特。如果只携带短消息,则保留该比特字段。
虚拟资源块(virtual resource block,简称VRB)到物理资源块(physical resource block,简称PRB)的映射-1比特。如果只携带短消息,则保留该比特字段。
调制和编码方案。如果只携带短消息,则保留该比特字段。
TB缩放-2比特。如果只携带短消息,则保留该比特字段。
预留比特-8比特,用于在具有共享频谱信道接入的小区中操作;否则为6位。
其中,指示信息可以位于paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特中。
针对paging DCI的短消息,包括:
系统信息修改-如果设置为1:指示除SIB6、SIB7和SIB8之外的广播控制信道(Broadcast Control Channel,简称BCCH)修改。
etwsAndCmasIndication-如果设置为1:指示ETWS主要通知和/或ETWS次要通知和/或CMAS通知。
停止分页监控-如果存在nrofPDCCH-MonitoringOccasionPerSSB-InPO,该位只能用于共享频谱信道访问的操作。如果设置为1:指示UE可以停止监听PDCCH时机以在该寻呼时机中进行 寻呼。
预留比特-8比特,未在本规范版本中使用,如果收到,UE应忽略。
其中,指示信息可以位于paging DCI的短消息中的预留比特中。
上述实施例中介绍了寻呼监听包括监听的P-RNTI的PDCCH时指示信息位于pagingDCI中的情形。当存在寻呼消息时,寻呼监听还可以包括根据PDCCH中的paging DCI接收的PDSCH,指示信息可以位于承载于PDSCH的寻呼消息中。终端设备可以通过监听PDCCH获取到paging DCI,并根据paging DCI调度相应的PDSCH,获取承载在PDSCH上的寻呼消息,从而获取该指示信息。
由于本申请实施例中针对的是连接态的终端设备,因此寻呼消息对应的应用场景为网络设备发起的系统信息更新的通知。当指示信息位于寻呼消息中时,终端设备在获取paging DCI后,通过pagingDCI调度PDSCH,获取承载在PDSCH上的寻呼消息,从而在寻呼消息中获取该指示信息。具体的,当指示信息位于寻呼消息中时,寻呼的RRC消息中可以扩展1比特信息作为该指示信息,指示终端设备进行BWP切换。
终端设备获取指示信息后,根据指示信息切换BWP,其中,指示信息中可以包括BWP切换指示和第一BWP的标识中的至少一项。
具体的,指示信息中可以仅包括BWP切换指示,指示信息中可以仅包括第一BWP的标识,指示信息中也可以包括BWP切换指示和第一BWP的标识。当指示信息中包括的内容不同时,终端设备会根据指示信息进行相应的BWP切换操作,下面分别进行介绍。
首先对第一BWP进行介绍。
第一BWP可以为初始BWP(initial BWP),也可以为网络节能BWP。其中,初始BWP为预先配置的,若网络设备通过指示信息指示终端设备将当前BWP切换至初始BWP,则网络设备在基于寻呼监听发送指示信息后,也可以缩小数据收发的频域范围。其中,网络设备可以缩小数据收发的频域范围至该初始BWP上,也可以缩小数据收发的频域范围至比该初始BWP略宽的带宽上。
网络节能BWP为网络设备配置的BWP。在一种实施方式中,网络设备可以通过系统信息广播配置该网络节能BWP,终端设备通过获取广播的系统信息,获取该网络节能BWP。在另一种实施方式中,网络设备可以通过RRC消息配置该网络节能BWP,终端设备通过获取RRC消息,获取该网络节能BWP。若网络设备通过指示信息指示终端设备将当前BWP切换至网络节能BWP,则网络设备在基于寻呼监听发送指示信息后,也可以缩小数据收发的频域范围。其中,网络设备可以缩小数据收发的频域范围至该网络节能BWP上,也可以缩小数据收发的频域范围至比该网络节能BWP略宽的带宽上。
下面将对指示信息包括的内容介绍。
当指示信息中包括BWP切换指示时,BWP切换指示可以用于指示终端设备在下一系统信息更新周期接收系统信息,并根据系统信息将当前BWP切换至第一BWP,其中,系统信息中包括第一BWP的标识。
例如,当指示信息位于寻呼消息中时,可以在寻呼消息中扩展1比特信息作为该BWP切换指示,终端设备通过获取寻呼消息获取该BWP切换指示;例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特时,paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特中可以包括该BWP切换指示,终端设备通过获取paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特获取该BWP切换指示;例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特时,paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特中可以包括该BWP切换指示,终端设备通过获取paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特获取该BWP切换指示。
在获取该BWP切换指示后,可以根据BWP切换指示执行BWP切换。
图6为本申请实施例提供的BWP切换时刻示意图一,如图6所示,终端设备在SI更新周期n内的时刻A获取了指示信息,该指示信息指示终端设备在下一系统信息更新周期接收系统信息,并根据系统信息将当前BWP切换至第一BWP,其中,系统信息中包括第一BWP的标识。
然后,终端设备在下一个SI更新周期即SI更新周期n+1开始的时刻(即图8中示例的时刻B)接收系统信息,获取SIB1中的第一BWP的标识,并将当前激活的BWP切换到第一BWP上。其中,第一BWP为初始BWP,终端设备将当前BWP切换到初始BWP上;第一BWP为网络节能BWP时,终端设备将当前BWP切换到网络节能BWP上。
通过在下一个系统信息更新周期开始时从系统信息中获取第一BWP的标识,进行BWP切换,从而指示信息中无需指示更新的BWP,减少了指示信息中所要使用的比特。
当指示信息中包括BWP切换指示时,BWP切换指示还可以用于指示终端设备将当前BWP 切换至第一BWP。终端设备在获取到该BWP切换指示后,根据该BWP切换指示即可将当前BWP切换至第一BWP。
例如,当指示信息位于寻呼消息中时,可以在寻呼消息的RRC消息中扩展1比特信息作为该BWP切换指示,BWP切换指示用于指示将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。当终端设备获取到该BWP切换指示后,根据该BWP切换指示,默认将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。
例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特时,paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特中可以包括BWP切换指示,用于指示将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。当终端设备通过获取paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特获取到该BWP切换指示后,根据该BWP切换指示,默认将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。
例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特时,paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特中可以包括BWP切换指示,用于指示将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。当终端设备通过获取paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特获取到该BWP切换指示后,根据该BWP切换指示,默认将当前BWP切换到第一BWP上。
其中,当第一BWP为初始BWP时,终端设备根据该BWP切换指示将当前BWP切换至初始BWP;当第一BWP为网络节能BWP时,终端设备根据该BWP切换指示将当前BWP切换至网络节能BWP。
当指示信息中包括第一BWP的标识时,第一BWP的标识用于指示终端设备将当前BWP切换至第一BWP。
例如,可以在寻呼消息的RRC消息中扩展1比特信息作为该第一BWP的标识,第一BWP的标识用于指示将当前BWP切换到该第一BWP上。当终端设备获取到第一BWP的标识后,根据第一BWP的标识,将当前激活的BWP切换到该第一BWP上。其中,第一BWP可以为初始BWP,也可以为网络节能BWP。当第一BWP为初始BWP时,指示信息中包括初始BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备当前的BWP切换到初始BWP上;当第一BWP为网络节能BWP时,指示信息中包括网络节能BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备当前的BWP切换到网络节能BWP上。
例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特时,paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特中可以包括第一BWP的标识,用于指示将BWP切换到该第一BWP上。当终端设备通过获取paging DCI format 1_0中的预留比特获取到第一BWP的标识后,根据第一BWP的标识,将当前激活的BWP切换到该第一BWP上。其中,第一BWP可以为初始BWP,也可以为网络节能BWP。当第一BWP为初始BWP时,指示信息中包括初始BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备的BWP切换到初始BWP上;当第一BWP为网络节能BWP时,指示信息中包括网络节能BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备的BWP切换到网络节能BWP上。
例如,当指示信息位于paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特时,paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特中可以包括第一BWP的标识,用于指示将BWP切换到该第一BWP上。当终端设备通过获取paging DCI中的短消息中的预留比特获取到第一BWP的标识后,根据第一BWP的标识,将当前激活的BWP切换到该第一BWP上。其中,第一BWP可以为初始BWP,也可以为网络节能BWP。当第一BWP为初始BWP时,指示信息中包括初始BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备的BWP切换到初始BWP上;当第一BWP为网络节能BWP时,指示信息中包括网络节能BWP的标识,用于指示将终端设备的BWP切换到网络节能BWP上。
当指示信息中包括BWP切换指示和第一BWP的标识时,BWP切换指示和第一BWP的标识用于指示终端设备将当前BWP切换至第一BWP。

图8示例的方案,能够使得小区内所有的终端设备同时执行BWP切换,从而与网络设备保持一致。

本申请实施例提供的切换方法,终端设备基于寻呼监听获取指示信息,并根据指示信息切换终端设备的BWP,通过寻呼监听中寻呼过程相关数据的传输来传输指示信息,在空口进行寻呼过程相关数据的传输时,具有相同寻呼时机的终端设备的寻呼过程相关数据被汇总成一条,并通过寻呼信道传输给终端设备。因此,当网络设备要缩小数据收发的频域范围以节能时,只需要通过发送一次PDCCH进行寻呼过程相关数据的传输,就能够指示小区内所有的终端设备完成BWP切换,以保证与网络设备的一致,从而能够节省PDCCH资源,减小信令开销。进一步的,当指示信息指示切换到第一BWP时,可以在获取指示信息时立刻执行BWP切换,从而可以达到快速BWP切换的效果,还可以等到下一系统信息更新周期开始时刻执行BWP切换,从而使得所有的终端设备同时执行BWP切换,保持和网络设备一致;当指示信息指示切换BWP时,可以在下一系统信息更新周期开始时刻获取更新的BWP,并切换到更新的BWP上,从而可以减小指示信息中所要使用的比特。
