technical field

The present application belongs to the technical field of communication, and in particular relates to a terminal behavior control method, a terminal and a network side device.

Background technique

For Discontinuous Reception (DRX) in the connected state, the DRX cycle consists of "On Duration" and "Opportunity for DRX". During the "On Duration" time, the terminal monitors and receives the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); during the "Opportunity for DRX" time, the terminal does not monitor the PDCCH to save power consumption. If a newly transmitted PDCCH is received within the On Duration, the sleep timer will be started or restarted to prolong the period for the terminal to monitor the PDCCH.

In order to further save energy under the DRX configuration, the network side device can configure the terminal to use the Power Saving Network Temporary Identifier (PS-RNTI) in one step under the DRX (Connected mode DRX, CDRX) mechanism in the connected state. ) scrambled DCI 2-6 (DCI format 2-6with CRC scrambled by PS-RNTI, DCP). The Wake Up indication (Wake Up indication) field in the DCP is used to indicate whether the terminal starts the On Duration Timer (Timer) of the wake-up period of the next DRX cycle or the DCP indicates whether the MAC layer starts the On Duration Timer of the next DRX cycle. Starting the timer means that the terminal The PDCCH should be monitored within the timer, otherwise the PDCCH should not be monitored.

In order to save the power consumption of the terminal, the network side can indicate through the downlink control information (DCI) that during the DRX activation period, the terminal skips PDCCH monitoring for a period of time, that is, indicates PDCCH skipping; during the PDCCH skipping period, the terminal does not Monitor PDCCH. Although this method can save power consumption of the terminal, it will affect the performance of the terminal.

Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which the embodiment of the present application is applicable. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network side device 12 . Wherein, the terminal 11 can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a laptop computer (Laptop Computer) or a notebook computer, a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA), a palmtop computer, a netbook, a super mobile personal computer (ultra-mobile personal computer, UMPC), mobile Internet device (Mobile Internet Device, MID), augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) / virtual reality (virtual reality, VR) equipment, robot, wearable device (Wearable Device) , vehicle equipment (VUE), pedestrian terminal (PUE), smart home (home equipment with wireless communication functions, such as refrigerators, TVs, washing machines or furniture, etc.), game consoles, personal computers (personal computers, PCs), teller machines or self-service Wearable devices include: smart watches, smart bracelets, smart headphones, smart glasses, smart jewelry (smart bracelets, smart bracelets, smart rings, smart necklaces, smart anklets, smart anklets, etc.), Smart wristbands, smart clothing, etc. It should be noted that, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific type of the terminal 11 .

It should be noted that in this embodiment of the application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example for introduction, and The specific type of the base station is not limited.

The nouns and concepts used in the embodiments of the present application are explained below:

Long and short cycles of DRX:

According to different business scenarios, short cycle (short DRX cycle) or long cycle (long DRX cycle) can be configured for the terminal. For example, when performing VOIP services, the voice codec usually sends a VOIP packet in 20ms, then a DRX short cycle with a length of 20ms can be configured, and a DRX long cycle can be configured for a longer silent period during a voice call. If the short cycle and long cycle are configured at the same time, and the DRX Short Cycle Timer timer expires, the terminal will enter a long DRX cycle.

DRX command MAC CE and Long DRX command MAC CE:

The function of DRX-inactivity timer Inactivity Timer is to reduce the data processing delay, but if the duration of DRX-Inactivity Timer is set too long, when the timer has not timed out after the data of the network side device is sent, the terminal still It has to continue to monitor the downlink subframe, and cannot enter the sleep state in time. In order to let the terminal enter the sleep state as quickly as possible, a DRX-related media access layer MAC control element (Control Element, MAC CE) is introduced. When the terminal receives this DRX control element, it will stop On Duration Timer and Drx- Inactivity Timer, enter DRX as soon as possible. The specific process is as follows:

If the terminal receives DRX Command MAC CE or Long DRX Command MAC CE:

Stop Drx-Inactivity Timer;

Stop OnDurationTimer.

If the received DRX Command MAC CE,

If the short DRX cycle is configured, start or restart the DRX-Short Cycle Timer in the first symbol after the DRX Command MAC CE is received, and start using the short DRX cycle; otherwise, start using the long DRX cycle. If the DRX-Short Cycle Timer expires, use the long DRX cycle.

If Long DRX Command MAC CE is received, then

Stop DRX-Short Cycle Timer and start using long DRX cycle.

Regarding DCP, the full name of DCP is PS-RNTI scrambled DCI 2-6 (DCI format 2_6 with CRC scrambled by PS-RNTI).

The Wake Up indication field in the DCP is used to indicate whether the terminal starts the On Duration Timer of the next DRX cycle, or the DCP indicates whether the MAC layer starts the On Duration Timer of the next DRX cycle. Starting the On Duration Timer means that the terminal needs to monitor in the timer PDCCH, otherwise the PDCCH is not monitored. The DCP can only be configured on the Pcell, and the PS-RNTI is the energy-saving-RNTI. DCI 2-6 exists in the inactive period outside active time, that is, outside the Active time. It should be noted that only when CDRX is configured, DCP can be configured and DCP can only be transmitted on PCell/PSCell.

Currently, there are two information domains in DCI format 2-6, such as

1. Wake-up indication field, 1 bit, used to indicate whether the terminal starts the On Duration Timer of the next DRX cycle.

For example, 0 indicates that the On DurationTimer indicating that the terminal does not start the next DRX cycle;

1 indicates that the terminal is instructed to start the On DurationTime of the next DRX cycle

2. The secondary cell dormancy indication Scell dormancy indication field, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 bits, is used to indicate whether the SCell of the terminal enters dormancy behavior under carrier aggregation (Carrier aggregation, CA).

In addition, the SCell dormancy indication field in DCI 2-6 is used to indicate whether the SCell group is switched to the dormant BWP in units of SCell group. Each bit in this field corresponds to an SCell group.

In order to save the power consumption of the terminal, the network side can indicate through the downlink control information (DCI) that during the DRX activation period, the terminal skips PDCCH monitoring for a period of time, that is, indicates PDCCH skipping; during the PDCCH skipping period, the terminal does not Monitor PDCCH. However, during the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped, if the terminal skips monitoring of DCI such as DCP or skips measurement and reporting, the subsequent receiving behavior of the terminal may be affected. For example, if the terminal skips the detection of DCP, the DCP cannot be judged. Whether the corresponding DRX cycle On Duration Timer is turned on or not. If the On Duration Timer is not turned on, the PDCCH will not be monitored, so it will affect the terminal's monitoring of the PDCCH. Therefore, although the above solution saves power consumption, it will affect the performance of the terminal.

The terminal behavior control method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below through some embodiments and application scenarios with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 2 is one of the schematic flowcharts of the terminal behavior control method provided by the embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, the terminal behavior control method provided in this embodiment includes:

Step 101. When the terminal is in the connected state, the terminal obtains target indication information from the network side device, and the target indication information is used to indicate the target behavior of the terminal during the period when the monitoring of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH is skipped;

Specifically, when the terminal is in the connected state, the terminal acquires target indication information from the network side device, which is used to indicate the target behavior of the terminal during the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped.

Target behaviors include, but are not limited to, some specific DCI monitoring and/or RRM measurement and/or BWP switching and/or SR sending and/or MAC PDU transmission and/or channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI) reporting And/or the transmission of a channel sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS).

Target behaviors include, for example, that the terminal skips or does not skip DCP detection, performs RRM measurement or does not perform RRM measurement, performs BWP switching or does not perform BWP switching, resumes or does not resume PDCCH monitoring, reports or does not report channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI), transmit or not transmit channel sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS), etc.

The period during which PDCCH monitoring is skipped, that is, the PDCCH skipping period, means that the terminal receives the DCI indication information of PDCCH skipping and the indication information indicates that the PDCCH detection is stopped for a period of time, and then the terminal enters the PDCCH skipping period.

Optionally, the target indication information may be sent by the network side device to the terminal before PDCCH skipping.

Through the target indication information, some behaviors of the terminal during PDCCH skipping can be flexibly controlled, for example, these behaviors are performed during PDCCH skipping, so that some key processes such as random access, RRM measurement, DCP detection, etc. are not affected by PDCCH skipping. While saving power, the performance of the terminal can be guaranteed.

Step 102, the terminal executes the target behavior during the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped according to the indication content of the target indication information.

Specifically, according to the indication content of the target indication information, the terminal performs the target behavior during the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped, for example, the terminal skips or does not skip DCP detection according to the indication of the target indication information, performs RRM measurement or does not perform RRM measurement , perform BWP switching or not, resume or not resume PDCCH monitoring, report or not report CSI, transmit or not transmit SRS, etc.

The method of this embodiment can flexibly control some behaviors of the terminal during PDCCH skipping through the instruction of the network side device, so that some key processes such as RACH, RRM measurement, DCP detection, etc. are not affected by PDCCH skipping, while saving power Can guarantee the performance of the terminal.

In an embodiment, the target indication information is used to indicate at least one of the following:

When the downlink control information DCP scrambled using PS-RNTI is in the period during which PDCCH monitoring is skipped, whether the terminal skips the detection of DCP;

Whether the terminal performs radio resource management RRM measurement during the period when the measurement gap is skipped during PDCCH monitoring;

During the period when the PDCCH monitoring is skipped, if the bandwidth part BWP inactivation timer expires, whether the terminal performs BWP switching;

During the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped, if the terminal sends a scheduling request (Scheduling Request, SR), whether the terminal resumes PDCCH monitoring;

During the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped, if the terminal transmits a media access control protocol data unit MAC PDU on the configured authorized resources, whether the terminal resumes PDCCH monitoring;

During the period when PDCCH monitoring is skipped, if the terminal triggers random access, whether the terminal resumes PDCCH monitoring;
