请参考图1,其示出了本公开实施例提供的一种无线通信系统的结构示意图。如图1所示,无线通信系统是基于蜂窝移动通信技术的通信系统,该无线通信系统可以包括:若干个UE11以及若干个接入设备12。
其中,UE11可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。UE11可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,UE11可以是物联网UE,如传感器设备、移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有物联网UE的计算机,例如,可以是固定式、便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的装置。例如,站(Station,STA)、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station)、移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点、远程UE(remote terminal)、接入UE(access terminal)、用户装置(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户设备(user device)、或用户UE(user equipment,UE)。或者,UE11也可以是无人飞行器的设备。或者,UE11也可以是车载设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的行车电脑,或者是外接行车电脑的无线通信设备。或者,UE11也可以是路边设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的路灯、信号灯或者其它路边设备等。
接入设备12可以是无线通信系统中的网络侧设备。其中,该无线通信系统可以是第四代移动通信技术(the 4th generation mobile communication,4G)系统,又称长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统;或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统,又称新空口(new radio,NR)系统或5G NR系统。或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统的再下一代系统。其中,5G系统中的接入网可以称为NG-RAN(New Generation-Radio Access Network,新一代无线接入网)。或者,MTC系统。
其中,接入设备12可以是4G系统中采用的演进型接入设备(eNB)。或者,接入设备12也可以是5G系统中采用集中分布式架构的接入设备(gNB)。当接入设备12采用集中分布式架构时,通常包括集中单元(central unit,CU)和至少两个分布单元(distributed unit,DU)。集中单元中设置有分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层、无线链路层控制协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)层、媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层的协议栈;分布单元中设置有物理(Physical,PHY)层协议栈,本公开实施例对接入设备12的具体实现方式不加以限定。
接入设备12和UE11之间可以通过无线空口建立无线连接。在不同的实施方式中,该无线空口 是基于第四代移动通信网络技术(4G)标准的无线空口;或者,该无线空口是基于第五代移动通信网络技术(5G)标准的无线空口,比如该无线空口是新空口;或者,该无线空口也可以是基于5G的更下一代移动通信网络技术标准的无线空口。
在一些实施例中,UE11之间还可以建立E2E(End to End,端到端)连接。比如车联网通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)中的V2V(vehicle to vehicle,车对车)通信、V2I(vehicle to Infrastructure,车对路边设备)通信和V2P(vehicle to pedestrian,车对人)通信等场景。
在一些实施例中,上述无线通信系统还可以包含网络管理设备13。
若干个接入设备12分别与网络管理设备13相连。其中,网络管理设备13可以是无线通信系统中的核心网设备,比如,该网络管理设备13可以是演进的数据分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)中的移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)。或者,该网络管理设备也可以是其它的核心网设备,比如服务网关(Serving GateWay,SGW)、公用数据网网关(Public Data Network GateWay,PGW)、策略与计费规则功能单元(Policy and Charging Rules Function,PCRF)或者归属签约用户服务器(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)等。对于网络管理设备13的实现形态,本公开实施例不做限定。
如图2所示,本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法,其中,由用户设备UE执行,所述方法包括:
S110:接收指示信息;其中,所述指示信息,指示是否允许所述UE发送按需on-demand PRS请求。
该UE可为能够接收定位参考信号(Positioning reference signaling,PRS)PRS的UE。例如,该UE可以在RRC(Radio Resource control,无线资源控制)连接态或者RRC非激活态下能够接收PRS的UE。
该指示信息可以来自接入网设备,例如基站,也可以来自核心网设备,例如,LMF。由核心网的通过基站透传给UE,例如,该指示信息由核心网的LMF(location management function,定位管理功能)通过基站透传给UE。
UE在接收到所述指示信息之后,就可以知晓网络侧允许UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求或者禁止UE发送on-demand PRS请求。该on-demand PRS请求为UE向网络侧请求PRS配置的请求。
PRS配置包括但不限于指示之一:
PRS的资源配置;该资源配置包括但不限于:时域资源配置和/或频域资源配置;
PRS的发送次数配置;
PRS的起止发送时间;
当然以上仅仅是对PRS配置的举例,具体实现时不局限于上述举例。
如果网络侧禁止(即不允许)UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求时,UE就可以不向网络设备发送on-demand PRS请求,从而减少不必要的信令开销和无线环境的干扰。
如果网络侧允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求时,则UE就可以根据自身的状况,向网络设备发 送on-demand PRS(需要PRS)请求,以请求PRS配置。示例性地,UE接收到了网络侧预先配置的PRS配置,但是UE处于自身功耗的节省目的,想要另一套减少自身处于高功耗状态的PRS配置,则可以通过该on-demand PRS请求,以请求网络设备更新PRS配置。在这种情况下,UE还可以将自身的期望PRS配置携带在on-demand PRS请求,告知网络设备。如此,网络设备确定更新PRS配置时,会根据on-demand PRS请求指示的UE的期望PRS配置,更新给UE的PRS配置。
当然以上仅仅是举例,具体实现时不局限于上述举例。
总之,在一个实施例中,所述方法还包括:
当所述指示信息指示允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求时,在所述UE期望请求PRS配置或者更新PRS配置时,向网络设备发送on-demand PRS请求;
或者,
当所述指示信息指示禁止(即不允许)UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求时,不向网络设备发送所述on-demand PRS请求。该网络设备包括但不限于LMF,即指示信息可指示,允许UE向LMF发送on-demand PRS请求,或者,禁止UE向LMF发送on-demand PRS请求。
在一个实施例中,所述S110可包括:
接收LMF发送的所述指示信息;
或者,
接收基站发送的所述指示信息。
例如,LMF发送该指示信息给UE,UE将接收到基站透传的LMF发送的消息。示例性地,所述LMF可以向UE发送LPP消息,该长期演进定位协议(LTE Positioning Protocol,LPP)消息携带该指示信息。LTE为长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)的缩写。
再例如,基站先从LMF接收指示信息,然后基站不透传,而是在合适的时机再发送UE,因此,UE是从基站接收到该指示信息。例如,基站通过各种广播消息发送给UE。示例性地,UE接收基站发送的包含该指示信息的系统消息。该系统消息可以为主消息块(Master Information Block,MIB),还可以是其他系统消息块(System Information Block,SIB)x,x的取值可以为任意正整数,也可以是定位系统消息。
故在一些实施例中,所述S110可包括:接收所述LMF发送的包含所述指示信息的长期演进定位协议LPP消息;
或者,
接收所述基站发送的包含所述指示信息的系统消息。
所述LPP消息包括但不限于:接收LMF发送的LPP提供辅助数据(Provide Assistance data)消息,或者,接收LMF发送的LPP提供预定义(Pre-Defined)PRS配置消息。
在一些实施例中,若LMF有为UE预定义PRS配置,则可以通过LPP消息发送给UE,该指示信息可以与预定义PRS配置携带在同一条消息发送给UE。示例性地,包含预定义PRS配置的LPP消息包括但不限于:LPP提供辅助数据消息或者LPP提供预定义(Pre-Defined)PRS配置消息。在 允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求时,UE发送的on-demand PRS请求内可包含UE获取到预定义PRS配置。
在一个实施例中,所述指示信息,指示以下之一;
允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
或者,
不允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求。
在这种情况下,所述指示信息包括一个或多个指示比特,该指示信息单独指示禁止UE发送on-demand PRS请求或者允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求。
例如,该指示信息可包括一个指示比特,该指示比特的“0”和“1”这两个比特值中的一个单独就指示禁止UE发送on-demand PRS请求,另一个单独指示允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求。此时UE接收到这种指示信息,在不依赖其他信息的情况下,就可以确定出网络侧是否允许其发送UE发送on-demand PRS请求。
当然该指示信息可以与其他信息使用同一个字段中的多个比特,该字段的不同比特值可以指示不同的内容,如此,指示信息可以与其他信息共用一个字段,从而减少网络设备与UE之间交互的各种信息的比特开销。
在一个实施例中,所述指示信息,指示以下之一:
在所述UE获取到PRS配置时,允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE获取到PRS配置时,不允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE未获取到PRS配置时,允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE未获取到PRS配置时,不允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求。
该PRS配置可为预定义PRS配置或者预定义PRS配置以外的任意预先获取的PRS配置。
在另一个实施例中,所述指示信息,指示以下之一:
在所述UE获取到预定义PRS配置时,允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE获取到预定义PRS配置时,不允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE未获取到预定义PRS配置时,允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求;
在所述UE未获取到预定义PRS配置时,不允许所述UE发送所述on-demand PRS请求。
在本公开实施例中,该指示信息相当于不能单独用于确定是否允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求。UE接收到该指示信息之后,需要根据网络侧是否有下发预定于PRS配置来综合确定。例如,该指示信息同样可以为一个或多个比特,不同的比特值具有的含义不同。假设指示信息占用一个比特,如此该指示信息具有比特值“0”和“1”,该指示信息具有相同的比特值,在UE是否有获取到预定义PRS配置时,可能指示的结果不同。
在一些实施例中,LMF可以通过LPP提供辅助数据消息或通过定位系统消息向UE提供预定义的PRS配置。在一些实施例中,所述预定义PRS配置和指示信息可以在一条消息中从网络设备接收,也可以通过不同的消息从网络设备接收。
所述指示信息可为:由预定义PRS配置隐含指示。在这种场景下,UE获取到预定义PRS配置,则可认为网络设备允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求;或者,UE没有获取到预定义PRS配置,则可认为网络设备不允许UE发送on-demand PRS请求。
例如,协议约定UE收到预定义PRS配置时,允许发送on-demand PRS请求,则UE在收到网侧配置的PRS配置时,就认为自身被允许向LMF等网络设备发送on-demand PRS请求,否则认为自身不允许向LMF发送on-demand PRS请求等。
如图3所示,本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法,被UE执行,所述方法包括:
S210:接收区域信息,其中,所述区域信息,指示生效区域范围。
该生效区域范围为:指示UE是否允许发送on-demand PRS请求的指示信息的生效地理范围。
在一些实施例中,该指示信息可为UE从网络设备接收的,例如,从LMF接收的或者从基站接收的。
在另一些实施例中,该指示信息可为协议约定的,如此,UE可以从协议文件中获取该指示信息。
UE接收到区域信息之后,需要确定自身是否在区域信息指示的生效区域范围内,仅有在对应的生效区域范围内才会根据指示信息,确定网络设备是否允许自身发送on-demand PRS请求。
UE移动到区域信息指示的生效区域范围外时,则不再根据该指示信息确定自身是否被允许发送on-demand PRS请求。若区域信息来自网络设备,则该区域信息可以与指示信息携带在同一条消息中,也可以携带在不同消息中发送至UE。如此,UE可能在一条消息中同时接收到指示信息和区域信息,也可能都在不同的消息中分别接收到指示信息和区域信息。
例如,区域信息也可以是携带在来自LMF的LPP消息或者来自基站的系统消息。若UE在一条消息中接收到指示信息和区域消息,UE将通过一条消息知晓自身在对应区域范围内是否允许发送on-demand PRS请求。
示例性地,所述接收区域信息包括:接收所述LMF发送的包含所述区域信息的LPP消息;该LPP消息包括但不限于:LPP提供辅助数据消息或者提供预定义PRS配置消息中;
或者,接收所述基站发送的包含所述区域信息系统消息。
指示信息和区域信息可以来自同一个网络设备,例如,同时来自LMF或者基站。
所述区域信息包括以下之一:
小区标识ID;
发收点ID;
系统消息SI区域ID;
接入网通知区(Radio access network Notification Area,RNA)ID。
在一个区域信息中包括一个或多个小区ID,包含在区域信息的小区ID指示的小区为指示信息的生效区域范围。
在一个区域信息中可包括一个或多个TRP(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)ID。包含在区域信息中的TRP ID指示的TPR的覆盖范围为:指示信息的生效区域范围。
系统消息区域ID为一些跨小区或者块基站的系统消息的生效区域,若包含在区域信息中的系统消息区域ID指示的区域即为指示信息的生效区域范围。
RNA ID指示的RNA可为寻呼RRC非激活态UE的区域。在本公开实施例中,包含在区域信息中的RNA ID指示的RAN即为指示信息的生效范围。
如此,通过生效信息的接收,还可以知晓指示信息的生效地理范围。
若一个指示信息的生效区域范围大于一个小区时,则实现了一条指示信息在多个小区内的生效,减少了逐个小区下发指示信息导致的信令开销大的现象。
在一些实施例中,所述指示信息的生效区域范围可以预先约定,例如,预先约定在协议中。此时,UE接收到指示信息之后根据预先约定确定指示信息的生效区域范围,而不再从网络设备接收区域信息。
