具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请进行说明。可以理解的是,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用于解释本申请,而非对本申请的限定。需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互任意组合。另外还需要说明的是,为了便于描述,附图中仅示出了与本申请相关的部分而非全部结构。
随着智能终端和物联网终端的发展,一些即时通信业务应用的用户量越来越大,这类业务通常一直在线,并且用户在使用的时候,主要进行小数据量的传输,如文字类的消息。由于小数据量业务需要UE频繁地和无线网络(Radio Network,RAN)进行信令链接重建,因此可能会引起RAN的信令负荷加重等问题。
在第四代移动通信(Fourth Generation,4G)的时候,为了优化对不频繁的小数据包传输的支持,4G网络支持UE在随机接入信道(Random Access Channel,RACH)接入的时候,UE可以在RACH接入请求消息中或者无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)连接建立请求消息中携带相应的小数据传输给RAN。在这种情况下,UE可以不需要和网络频繁地进行信令链接重建,即可以传输偶发的小数据量数据。
4G长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)的RRC状态可包括两种: RRC_IDLE(即RRC空闲态)和RRC_CONNECTED(即RRC连接态),5G引入了RRC_INACTIVE(即RRC非激活态)。在RRC INACTIVE状态下,UE处于省电的睡眠状态,但UE仍然保留RAN上下文,RAN侧也保留了UE上下文(即UE Context),这样UE在有数据传输的时候,可以快速的从RRC INACTIVE状态转移到RRC CONNECTED状态并进行数据传输。这样做可以减少信令开销,可以快速接入,降低时延,还能更省电。
但是对于小数据传输,5G也支持UE保持在RRC_INACTIVE状态的时候而不用进入RRC_CONNECTED状态,和RAN进行数据传输。5G的小数据传输(即SDT)包括基于RACH的SDT,和基于CG资源的SDT。在给UE配置了RRC_INACTIVE状态的CG资源的情况下,UE在RRC_INACTIVE可以使用CG资源进行小数据传输,但是可能该UE的CG资源的信号质量不太好,这种情况下,UE即使在配置了CG资源的情况下,在RRC_INACTIVE状态也可能使用RACH接入过程进行小数据的传输。
对于5G基站(如gNB),可分离为CU和DU,一个gNB可以包含一个CU和多个DU,CU和DU之间通过接口连接。在gNB为RRC_INACTIVE的UE分配了CG资源用于小数据的传输,但此时如果UE使用RACH资源进行小数据的传输,DU无法利用生成CG配置资源的时候保存的UE上下文进行小数据传输,导致浪费基站侧的资源。
图1为一实施例提供的一种指示方法的流程图,如图1所示,该方法可应用于第一通信节点,第一通信节点可以是CU,本实施例提供的方法包括步骤110和步骤120。

在一实施例中,该方法还包括:接收第二通信节点的初始上行RRC消息,初始上行RRC消息包含RRC恢复请求消息,RRC恢复请求消息包含非激活态的无线网络临时标识(Inactive Radio Network Tempory Identity,I-RNTI);根据I-RNTI识别终端;对终端进行SDT鉴权。

在一实施例中,该方法还包括:接收第二通信节点的文本更新消息,文本更新消息包含配置授权(Configured Grant,CG)资源释放指示或者更新后的CG资源;若文本更新消息包含CG资源释放指示,则根据CG资源释放指示确定第二通信节点侧终端的上下文被释放或者被保持。
在一实施例中,该方法还包括:根据CG资源释放指示或者更新后的CG资源,设置RRC释放消息中的CG资源相关信息;发送RRC释放消息,RRC释放消息用于通知终端释放CG资源或者更新CG资源。

在一实施例中,该方法还包括:发送终端上下文更新请求,终端上下文更新请求中包含CG资源释放指示或者CG资源更新指示;其中,CG资源释放指示用于指示第二通信节点释放CG资源并保留UE上下文;CG资源更新指示用于指示DU重新分配并更新CG资源。

以下通过不同实施例对小数据的传输方法进行示例性说明。在以下实施例中,第一通信节点为CU,第二通信节点为DU。
实施例一
图3为一实施例提供的一种小数据传输方法的实现示意图。如图3所示,该方法的具体过程可以包括:
步骤1:在终端(即UE)业务结束的时候,基站(如gNB)将UE释放到RRC非激活态(即RRC_INACTIVE),而不是完全释放UE的连接。gNB为UE配置了CG资源用于小数据传输(即SDT),并且gNB的DU侧保存了UE上下文(如无线链路控制层协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)配置等),gNB的CU侧也保存UE上下文(如分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)配置等),CU和DU保存了DRB的数据传输通道(即F1-U DRB tunnel)。
步骤2:UE处于RRC非激活态,准备进行SDT,但此时CG资源不满足,比如CG资源对应的接收信号质量不满足门限要求,或者通过CG资源发送RRC恢复请求消息未能成功传输给gNB,则UE可准备通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息给gNB。
步骤3:UE通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息(即RRC RESUME REQUEST)给gNB,gNB的DU接收到RRC恢复请求消息后,识别出UE是需要进行小数据传输,DU将接收到的RRC恢复请求消息封装到初始上行RRC消息(即Initial UL RRC Message)中,并将初始上行RRC消息发送给CU,其中初始上行RRC消息中携带SDT指示信息,用于指示CU该初始上行RRC消息是用于小数据传输。
步骤4:CU接收到DU在初始上行RRC消息中包含的RRC恢复请求消息,通过RRC恢复请求消息中包含的I-RNTI识别出UE,对UE进行小数据传输的鉴权(即SDT鉴权),并找到对应的CU侧的UE上下文(即UE Context)以及和该UE上下文相关联的F1接口的连接信息,该连接信息可包括CU对应的 终端F1接口标识(Identification,ID)和DU对应的终端F1接口ID(即确定该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1接口ID和DU侧的UE F1接口ID),其中CU侧的UE F1接口ID可表示为CU UE F1AP ID,DU侧的UE F1接口ID可表示为DU UE F1AP ID,F1AP可指F1接口。
步骤5:CU向DU发送指示消息如SDT鉴权通过消息(即SDT Authentication Message),其中包含该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1接口ID和DU侧的UE F1接口ID。DU接收到该消息后,通过(CU UE F1AP ID,DU UE F1AP ID)确定该UE在DU侧的上下文,以及确定该UE上下文相关联的F1接口的连接。需要说明的是,此处CU向DU发送的指示消息不限于SDT鉴权通过消息,CU也可以在UE上下文建立请求消息/修改消息(即UE CONTEXT SETUP/MODIFICATION REQUEST)中携带(CU UE F1AP ID,DU UE F1AP ID)用于通知DU确定UE的上下文,即CU向DU发送的指示消息包括以下至少之一:SDT鉴权通过消息;终端上下文建立请求消息;终端上下文修改消息。
步骤6:UE在后续的小数据传输过程中,通过RACH调度资源,或者CG调度资源发送DRB数据(即终端的SDT业务数据)给DU,DU接收到DRB数据后,根据该UE上下文相关联的F1接口的连接(即保存的CU对应的终端接口和DU对应的终端接口),在F1接口上的该UE对应的DRB数据传输通道将DRB数据传输给CU。CU接收到DRB数据后,将DRB数据发送给5G核心网(即5GC)
实施例二
图4为一实施例提供的另一种小数据传输方法的实现示意图。如图4所示,该方法的具体过程可以包括:
步骤1:在终端(即UE)业务结束的时候,基站(如gNB)将UE释放到RRC非激活态(即RRC_INACTIVE),而不是完全释放UE的连接。gNB为UE配置了CG资源用于小数据传输(即SDT),并且gNB的DU侧保存了UE上下文(如RLC配置等),gNB的CU侧也保存UE上下文(PDCP配置等),CU和DU保存了DRB的数据传输通道(即F1-U DRB tunnel)。
步骤2:UE处于RRC非激活态,准备进行SDT,但此时CG资源不满足,比如CG资源对应的接收信号质量不满足门限要求,或者通过CG资源发送RRC恢复请求消息未能成功传输给gNB,则UE可准备通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息给gNB。
步骤3:UE通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息(即RRC RESUME REQUEST)给gNB,gNB的DU接收到RRC恢复请求消息后,识别出UE是 需要进行小数据传输,DU将接收到的RRC恢复请求消息封装到初始上行RRC消息(即Initial UL RRC Message)中,并将初始上行RRC消息发送给CU,其中初始上行RRC消息中携带SDT指示信息,用于指示CU该初始上行RRC消息是用于小数据传输。
步骤4:CU接收到DU在初始上行RRC消息中包含的RRC恢复请求消息,通过RRC恢复请求消息中包含的I-RNTI识别出UE,对UE进行小数据传输的鉴权(即SDT鉴权),并找到对应的CU侧的UE上下文(即UE context)以及和该UE上下文相关联的F1接口的连接信息,该连接信息可包括CU对应的终端F1接口标识(Identification,ID)和DU对应的终端F1接口ID(即确定该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1接口ID和DU侧的UE F1接口ID),其中CU侧的UE F1接口ID可表示为CU UE F1AP ID,DU侧的UE F1接口ID可表示为DU UE F1AP ID,F1AP可指F1接口。
步骤5:CU向DU发送指示消息如SDT鉴权通过消息(即SDT Authentication Message),其中包含该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1接口ID和DU侧的UE F1接口ID。DU接收到该消息后,通过(CU UE F1AP ID,DU UE F1AP ID)确定该UE在DU侧的上下文,以及确定该UE上下文相关联的F1接口的连接。需要说明的是,此处CU向DU发送的指示消息不限于SDT鉴权通过消息,CU也可以在UE上下文建立请求消息/修改消息(即UE CONTEXT SETUP/MODIFICATION REQUEST)中携带(CU UE F1AP ID,DU UE F1AP ID)用于通知DU确定UE的上下文,即CU向DU发送的指示消息包括以下至少之一:SDT鉴权通过消息;终端上下文建立请求消息;终端上下文修改消息。
步骤6:UE通过RACH调度或者CG调度的对应专用控制信道(Dedicated Control Channel,DCCH)资源发送后续信令数据,如信令无线承载(Signalling Radio Bearers,SRB)协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)或者非接入层(Non Access Stratum,NAS)PDU给DU,DU可以根据针对不同UE调度的资源,识别出信令数据是针对哪个UE的。DU通过上行RRC信息传输(即UL RRC Message Transfer)消息携带信令数据(即SRB PDU或NAS PDU)发送给CU,其中UL RRC Message Transfer消息携带该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1AP ID和DU侧的UE F1AP ID,用于指示CU该信令数据属于哪个UE。
步骤7:UE通过RACH调度的对应CCCH公共控制信道资源发送后续信令数据(即SRB PDU或者NAS PDU)给DU,且在信令数据中携带UE的I-RNTI。由于是CCCH公共信道,DU此时无法识别出信令数据是针对哪个UE的,DU通过上行CCCH RRC信息传输(即UL CCCH RRC Message Transfer)消息携带信令数据(即SRB PDU或NAS PDU)发送给CU,其中消息中可选的携带CCCH 消息指示,用于指示CU该消息中携带的信令数据是CCCH信道信令。CU接收到UL CCCH RRC Message Transfer消息后,如果该消息中携带CCCH消息指示,或者消息中不携带该UE上下文相关联的CU侧的UE F1AP ID和DU侧的UE F1AP ID(即CU&DU UE F1AP ID),则CU根据该消息中携带的信令数据中的UE的I-RNTI识别出该信令数据属于哪个UE。
实施例三
图5为一实施例提供的又一种小数据传输方法的实现示意图。如图5所示,该方法的具体过程可以包括:
步骤1:基站和UE之间配置的CG资源,UE在RRC非激活态通过CG资源和基站进行小数据传输。
步骤2:DU因某些原因决定释放或者重新配置(即更新)CG资源,比如DU侧配置的CG资源的有效定时器超时,或者DU侧的负荷过大。
步骤3:DU发送UE文本更新(即UE Context Modification Required)给CU,其中UE文本更新消息包含CG资源释放指示或者更新后的CG资源(但不限于此UE文本更新消息)。
步骤4:CU接收到UE Context Modification Required消息,如果其中包含了CG资源释放指示,则CU可以决定是否释放或者依旧保持DU侧的UE文本(即UE上下文)(但不限于此UE文本更新消息)。
步骤5:如果CU决定释放DU侧的上下文,则CU发送UE文本释放(即UE Context Release Request)消息给DU,DU接收到该UE文本释放消息后,则释放对应的DU侧的上下文(如RLC实体和配置,物理层和MAC层实体和配置,以及和CU之间的F1接口通道)。
步骤6:CU通过DU向UE发送RRC释放消息,指示UE释放到非激活态。其中根据CU从DU侧接收的UE Context Modification Required等消息包含的CG资源释放指示或者DU更新后的CG资源,CU设置RRC释放消息中的CG资源相关信息,如设置CG资源释放指示或者更新后的CG资源,CU发送RRC释放消息给UE从而通知UE释放CG资源或者更新CG资源。
步骤7:UE接收RRC释放消息,如果该消息中包含CG资源释放指示,则UE释放相应CG资源配置;如果该消息中包含更新后的CG资源,UE保存并更新相应的CG资源配置。

步骤2:UE处于RRC非激活态,准备进行SDT,但此时CG资源不满足,比如CG资源对应的接收信号质量不满足门限要求,或者通过CG资源发送RRC恢复请求消息未能成功传输给gNB,则UE准备通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息给gNB。
步骤3:UE通过RACH信道发送RRC恢复请求消息(即RRC RESUME REQUEST)给gNB,gNB的DU接收到RRC恢复请求消息后,识别出来UE是需要进行SDT,并识别出SDT的类型是RACH SDT。DU将接收到的RRC恢复请求消息封装到初始上行RRC消息(即Initial UL RRC Message)中,并将初始上行RRC消息发送给CU,其中初始上行RRC消息中携带SDT指示信息,用于指示CU该RRC恢复消息是用于小数据传输;其中初始上行RRC消息中携带SDT类别信息,用于指示CU该SDT是RACH SDT还是CG SDT。
步骤4:CU接收初始上行RRC消息,根据其中携带SDT类别信息,识别该SDT是RACH SDT还是CG SDT,如果基站侧已经配置了CG资源,而SDT类别为RACH SDT,CU可以决定释放或请求更新基站的CG资源。
步骤5:如果CU决定同时释放DU侧的上下文,则CU发送UE Context Release Request消息(即可称为UE上下文释放请求消息或UE文本释放消息)给DU;否则CU发送UE Context Modification Request消息(即可称为UE上下文更新请求消息或UE文本更新消息)给DU,其中消息中包含CG资源释放指示用于指示DU释放CG资源但保留UE上下文,或者包含CG资源更新指示用于指示DU重新分配并更新CG资源。
步骤6:如果DU接收到UE Context Release Request消息(即UE上下文释放请求),则DU释放对应的DU侧的上下文(如RLC实体和配置,物理层和MAC层实体和配置,以及和CU之间的F1接口通道);
如果DU接收到CU发送的UE Context Modification Request消息(即UE上下文更新请求),其中消息中包含CG资源释放指示,则DU不释放DU侧的上下文(即保留DU侧的UE上下文,如RLC实体和配置,物理层和MAC层实体和配置,以及和CU之间的F1接口通道),但DU释放DU侧的CG资源。 并且DU在释放了DU侧的原有CG资源后,DU可选的可以重新分配新的CG资源,并将新的CG资源在UE上下文更新请求反馈消息中发送给CU;
如果DU接收到CU发送的UE Context Modification Request消息(即UE上下文更新请求),其中消息中包含CG资源更新指示,DU重新分配并更新CG资源,并将更新的CG资源在UE上下文更新请求反馈消息(即也可称为UE文本更新反馈消息)中发送给CU。
步骤7:CU通过DU向UE发送RRC释放消息,指示UE释放到非激活态。其中该RRC释放消息包含CG资源释放指示或者DU更新后的CG资源。
步骤8:UE接收RRC释放消息,如果该RRC释放消息中包含CG资源释放指示,则UE释放相应CG资源配置;如果该RRC释放消息中包含更新后的CG资源,UE保存并更新相应的CG资源配置。
