Description

收发信息的方法、装置和通信系统 技术领域
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域。
背景技术
5G版本17(Release 17,R17)中正在研究边链路中继(Sidelink relay,SL relay)技术,其包含终端设备(例如,UE)到网络设备中继(UE-to-Network Relay)的场景。其中,在中继的终端设备(relay UE)的Uu接口上使用新空口(NR)Uu链路,在远端的终端设备(remote UE)和relay UE之间的PC5接口上假设使用NR sidelink链路。在UE-to-Network Relay的场景下,relay UE又被称为UE-to-Network relay UE。
图1是终端设备到网络设备中继的场景的一个示意图。
如图1的场景1所示,remote UE 101在网络设备100的覆盖范围之外(out of coverage,OOC),relay UE 102在网络设备100的覆盖范围之内(in coverage,IC)。
如图1的场景2所示,remote UE 101在网络设备100的覆盖范围之内(in coverage,IC),relay UE 102在网络设备100的覆盖范围之内(in coverage,IC)。
如图1的场景3所示,remote UE 101在网络设备100a的覆盖范围之内(in coverage,IC),relay UE 102在网络设备100的覆盖范围之内(in coverage,IC),网络设备100a不同于网络设备100。
在版本17的层2边链路中继(R17 L2 SL relay)的协议栈中,边链路中继适应协议(SRAP,Sidelink Relay Adaptation Protocol)被引入。对于UE-to-Network relay,在PC5接口和在Uu接口,对控制面和用户面协议栈,SRAP子层(sublayer)都位于无线链路控制(RLC)子层之上。Uu服务数据适应协议(SDAP)、分组数据汇聚协议(PDCP)和无线资源控制(RRC)终止在remote UE和网络设备(例如,gNB)之间,而SRAP、RLC、介质访问控制(MAC)和物理(PHY)层终止在每个链路(即remote UE和relay UE之间的链路以及relay UE和gNB之间的链路)。
图2是UE-to-Network relay的控制面协议栈的一个示意图。
对于UE-to-Network relay,PC5接口上的SRAP子层只用于承载映射(bearer mapping)目的。对remote UE在广播控制信(BCCH)和寻呼控制信道(PCCH)上 的消息的中继,SRAP子层在PC5跳(hop)不出现。对remote UE的信令无线承载0(SRB0)上的消息,SRAP子层在PC5 hop上不出现,但SRAP子层在对下行链路(DL)和上行链路(UL)的Uu hop出现。
对L2 UE-to-Network relay,在上行:
-Uu SRAP子层支持入口(ingress)用于中继的PC5无线链路控制信道(PC5 RLC channels)和出口(egress)Relay UE Uu接口上的Uu RLC channel之间的上行承载映射。
-Uu SRAP子层支持对上行业务的remote UE识别。在上行,Remote UE的Uu无线承载(Uu Radio bearer)的标识信息和一个本地的remote UE ID被包括在Uu SRAP头中,以便让gNB将收到的对特定PDCP实体的数据包与remote UE的正确Uu radio barer关联。
-Relay UE的PC5 SRAP子层支持remote UE的Uu无线承载和egress Uu RLC channel之间的上行(UL)承载映射。
-Remote UE的PC5 SRAP子层支持remote UE的Uu无线承载和egress PC5 RLC channel之间的UL承载映射。
对L2 UE-to-Network relay,在下行:
-gNB侧的Uu SRAP子层支持DL承载映射,将remote UE的端到端无线承载(例如,SRB和/或DRB)映射到relay UE的Uu接口上的Uu RLC channel。
-Uu SRAP子层支持对下行业务的remote UE识别。在下行,Remote UE的Uu无线承载的标识信息和一个本地的remote UE ID被gNB放到Uu SRAP头中,以便让relay UE将从remote UE的Uu radio bearer收到的数据包映射到它相关的PC5 RLC channel。
-Relay UE的PC5 SRAP子层支持remote UE的Uu无线承载和egress PC5 RLC channel之间的下行承载映射。
应该注意,上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明,并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本申请的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
在UE-to-Network relay中,Remote UE可以通过relay UE接入网络设备,从而经由relay UE与网络设备进行通信。图3是Remote UE通过relay UE接入网络设备时RRC连接(RRC connection)建立过程的一个示意图,RRC连接重建(re-establishment)和RRC重新开始(resume)过程与此类似。
如图3所示,该RRC连接建立过程包括如下操作:
过程描述如下:
1.Remote UE和Relay UE执行发现(discovery)过程,并使用NR V2X中的过程建立PC5-RRC connection。
2.Remote UE发送第一条RRC消息(例如,RRCSetupRequest)用于该remote UE和gNB之间通过relay UE的连接建立,使用规定的PC5 RLC承载(PC5 RLC bearer)配置。如果Relay UE没有处于RRC连接模式(RRC_CONNECTED),那么,该relay UE需要在该规定的PC5 RLC bearer上收到消息时,进行自己的连接建立。gNB响应RRCSetup message给Remote UE。到Remote UE的这条RRCSetup的传递使用规定的PC5 RLC bearer配置。
3.gNB和Relay UE执行Uu接口上的中继信道建立过程。根据gNB的配置,Relay UE和remote UE建立RLC信道用于中继PC5接口上到remote UE的SRB1。
4.Remote UE使用PC5上的SRB1的中继信道以及配置给relay UE的Uu上的SRB1中继信道,向gNB发送RRCSetupComplete message。之后,Remote UE在Uu接口上具有RRC连接。
5.Remote UE和gNB遵循Uu接口的过程建立安全,安全消息通过relay UE被转发。
6.gNB经由relay UE发送RRC重配置消息(RRCReconfiguration message)给Remote UE,以建立用于中继的SRB2/DRBs。Remote UE经由relay UE发送RRC重配置完成消息(RRCReconfigurationComplete message)给gNB作为响应。此外,gNB建立gNB和relay UE之间额外的RLC承载或信道(bearer or channel),用于中继业务。
对于图3的过程而言,SRAP的相关配置被包括在RRC Reconfiguration消息中(对应于图3的操作6);对SRB0而言,在PC5接口上SRAP不出现,而对其他SRB(例如,SRB1或SRB2)和DRB,PC5接口默认出现SRAP,即使用SRAP的承载映射 功能。
本申请的发明人发现:在图3所示的过程中,RRC建立完成(RRC setup complete)消息使用SRB1发送,按照现有技术,需要在PC5使用SRAP功能;此外,在RRC re-establishment和RRC resume过程中,RRC re-establishment消息、RRC re-establishment complete消息、RRC resume消息和RRC resume complete消息都使用SRB1发送,由于这些SRB1消息在RRC reconfiguration过程之前传输,而此时remote UE还未接收到PC5 SRAP的配置,因此不清楚如何在PC5接口使用SRAP来传输这些SRB1上的消息。
针对上述问题的至少之一,本申请实施例提供一种收发信息的方法、装置和通信系统。在该收发信息的方法中,第一终端设备(例如,remote UE)与第二终端设备(例如,relay UE)建立PC5连接,并且第一终端设备(remote UE)经由第二终端设备(relay UE)通过默认配置接收无线资源控制重新开始(RRC resume)消息、无线资源控制重建(RRC re-establishment)消息和无线资源控制重配置(RRC reconfiguration)消息中的至少一者;和/或,第一终端设备(例如,remote UE)与第二终端设备(例如,relay UE)建立PC5连接,并且第一终端设备经由第二终端设备接收的无线资源控制建立(RRC setup)消息、无线资源控制重新开始(RRC resume)消息和无线资源控制重建(RRC re-establishment)消息中的至少一者包括边链路中继适应协议(SRAP)的相关配置。由此,使得remote UE和relay UE采用正确的配置发送和/或接收相关的RRC消息,防止remote UE和relay UE由于配置不一致而引起的消息传输失败,有助于remote UE经由relay UE与网络设备进行连接或恢复连接,保证了remote UE的业务质量和用户体验。

下面,结合具体的实施方式,对操作402进行说明。
实施方式1:
在实施方式1中,RRC setup消息(例如,该消息使用SRB0传输)中,包括SRAP的相关配置。其中:

-RRC setup request消息(由remote UE经由relay UE发送到gNB)和RRC setup消息(由gNB经由relay UE发送给remote UE)在PC5接口使用SL-RLC0的默认配置传输。
-Remote UE收到RRC setup消息中的SRAP的相关配置后,可以执行下面操作中的至少一个:建立SRAP实体,根据SRAP的相关配置来配置SRAP实体的参数,将RRC setup消息中的UE标识(例如UE-IdentityRemote)应用为该remote UE的小区无线网络临时标识(C-RNTI),基于SRAP的相关配置(例如,使用配置的SRAP实体的参数)来发送无线资源控制建立完成(RRC setup complete)消息。
图5是实施方式1对应的建立UE-to-Network relay连接的流程的一个示意图。如 图5所示,该流程包括如下操作:
操作1.Remote UE发现relay UE,二者之间建立PC5连接(PC5 connection)。
操作2.Remote UE向relay UE发送RRC建立请求(RRC setup request)消息。
操作3a~操作3b.Relay UE通过边链路用户设备信息(Sidelink UE Information,SUI)消息向gNB报告remote UE的L2 ID,gNB向relay UE发送RRC reconfiguration消息,其中配置relay UE的SRAP配置,其中可以包括Uu接口的SRAP配置和PC5接口的SRAP配置等。
操作4.relay UE向gNB转发在操作2中由remote UE发送的RRC setup request。

操作7.Remote UE进行与SRAP的相关配置对应的操作,例如:建立SRAP实体;和/或,根据SRAP的相关配置来配置SRAP实体的参数;和/或,将RRC setup消息中的UE标识(例如UE-IdentityRemote)应用为该remote UE的小区无线网络临时标识(C-RNTI)等。
操作8.Remote UE基于SRAP的相关配置(例如,使用配置的SRAP实体的参数)来发送无线资源控制建立完成(RRC setup complete)消息。
操作9.Relay UE将Remote UE发送的RRC setup complete消息转发给gNB。
实施方式2:
在实施方式2中,操作402所述的默认的配置例如可以是SRB1默认的SRAP配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置。对RRC resume消息和/或RRC re-establishment消息,由于这2条消息使用SRB1传输,当relay UE从gNB收到该消息时,在PC5接口使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置发送给remote UE。
在实施方式2的一个实施例中,relay UE已经被网络设备配置Uu接口的SRAP配置和PC5接口的SRAP配置,当该relay UE在Uu接口收到gNB经由该relay UE发送给remote UE的SRB1消息时,需要确定对该SRB1消息在PC5接口使用默认配置还是使用网络设备配置的PC5接口的SRAP配置发送给remote UE。例如,如果relay UE收到的SRB1消息是在remote UE发送SRB0消息到gNB之后的将要接收的第一 条SRB1消息,或者,如果relay UE收到SRB1承载RRC resume消息或RRC re-establishment消息,则在PC5接口使用默认配置将该消息发送给remote UE,否则,在PC5接口使用网络设备配置的PC5接口的SRAP配置将该消息发送给remote UE。
在实施方式2中,remote UE在发送RRC re-establishment request消息或RRC resume request消息(这2条消息在SRB0发送)时,对SRB1使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置,以接收gNB使用SRB1发送的RRC resume消息或RRC re-establishment消息。
图6的a是RRC重建立(RRC re-establishment)过程的流程的一个示意图。图6的b是RRC重建立(RRC re-establishment)过程的流程的另一个示意图。此外,RRC resume过程与RRC re-establishment过程类似,即,remote UE经由relay UE发送RRC resume request,接收gNB经由relay UE发送的RRC resume消息,并经由relay UE向gNB发送RRC resume complete消息。
对应于下述的图6的a,在实施方式2的一个实施例中,remote UE向relay UE发送的RRC resume complete消息和/或RRC re-establishment complete消息可以采用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置。
对应于下述的图6的b,在实施方式2的另一个实施例中,在RRC resume消息和/或RRC re-establishment消息中可以包括remote UE的SRAP的相关配置。Remote UE可以应用该SRAP的相关配置,发送RRC resume complete消息和/或RRC re-establishment complete消息。其中SRAP的相关配置可以参考实施方式1中的描述。
下面,对图6的a和图6的b所示的RRC重建立(RRC re-establishment)过程分别进行说明。
如图6的a所述的流程包括如下操作:
操作1.Remote UE和Relay UE执行发现(discovery)过程,并使用NR V2X过程建立PC5-RRC connection。
操作2.Remote UE采用SL-RLC0默认配置向relay UE发送RRC re-establishment request消息(使用SRB0传输)。Remote UE对SRB1使用默认的SRAP的相关配置(例如SRB1默认的SRAP配置)和/或SL-RLC1默认配置。

操作5.Relay UE使用Uu SRAP配置转发remote UE的RRC re-establishment request消息给gNB。
操作6.gNB经由relay UE向remote UE发送RRC re-establishment消息。Relay UE根据Uu SRAP头中的信息,可以知道收到的消息为remote UE的SRB1的消息。
操作7.Relay UE在PC5接口使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置,发送该SRB1消息给remote UE。
操作8.Remote UE使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置,发送RRC re-establishment complete消息给relay UE。
操作9.Relay UE将该RRC re-establishment complete消息转发给gNB。
操作10.gNB经由relay UE发送RRC reconfiguration消息给remote UE,该RRC reconfiguration消息中可以包括remote UE的SRAP的相关配置。该RRC reconfiguration消息可以使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置发送。
操作11.remote UE应用该RRC reconfiguration消息中包括的remote UE的SRAP的相关配置。
操作12.Remote UE经由relay UE发送RRC reconfiguration complete消息给gNB。
如图6的b所述的流程包括如下操作:
操作1~操作5与图6的a所述的流程中的操作1~操作5相同。
操作6.gNB经由relay UE向remote UE发送RRC re-establishment消息。该RRC re-establishment消息中包括remote UE的SRAP的相关配置。Relay UE根据Uu SRAP头中的信息,可以知道收到的消息为remote UE的SRB1的消息。
操作7.Relay UE在PC5接口使用默认的SRAP的相关配置和/或SL-RLC1默认配置,将收到的该remote UE的SRB1的消息发送该remote UE。
操作8.Remote UE根据RRC re-establishment消息中包括的SRAP的相关配置,进行相应的操作,例如建立SRAP实体,执行该SRAP的相关配置等。
操作9a.Remote UE在PC5接口使用SRAP的相关配置发送RRC re-establishment complete消息。
操作9b.RRC re-establishment complete消息由relay UE通过Uu接口转发到gNB。
实施方式3:
在实施方式3中,操作402所述的默认配置例如可以是SRB0默认的SRAP配置和/或SL-RLC0默认配置。例如,relay UE在PC5接口使用SRB0的默认的SRAP配置和/或SL-RLC0默认配置将RRC resume消息和/或RRC re-establishment消息发送给remote UE。
实施方式3对应的RRC重建立(RRC re-establishment)过程与图6的a、图6的b类似,区别在于:
