Description

一种邻区测量方法及相关装置
本申请要求于2022年1月28日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202210108173.X、申请名称为“一种邻区测量方法及相关装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种邻区测量方法及相关装置。
背景技术
目前,新空口(new radio,NR)系统中,网络设备可为终端设备配置一个或多个间隙(GAP),该GAP也称为测量间隙,一个GAP关联一个或多个待测量频率。终端设备确定当前时刻后的一个或多个时隙被配置为GAP时,中断与服务小区的通信,且将频率切换到待测量的异频或异系统频率上,以执行异频邻区测量或异系统邻区测量。当此次GAP的时长结束时,终端设备再将频率切换到服务小区所在的频率上,以与服务小区进行通信。
可见,当终端设备被配置了一个或多个GAP时,会导致在服务小区的数据传输被多次打断,无法保证部分数据/信令被及时传输。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供了一种邻区测量方法及相关装置,可保障部分数据/信令被及时传输。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供了一种邻区测量方法,该方法应用于配置了一个或多个间隙GAP的终端设备中。该方法包括:终端设备确定第一GAP的优先级。终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者确定在第一GAP期间通信。该第一GAP是一个或多个GAP中的任一GAP。
可见,终端设备不是在每个GAP内均对待测邻区进行测量,而是根据任一GAP的优先级,确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该GAP期间通信。在该GAP期间通信是指在该GAP期间收发待传输数据/信令。从而可使得终端设备在该GAP的优先级较低时,保障该GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信,包括:终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为高优先级时,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量。
终端设备在任一GAP的优先级为高优先级时,表明该GAP内的邻区测量的优先级高于其他任务的优先级,从而终端设备确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,以保证对该GAP内的待测邻区的及时测量。
另一种可选的实施方式中,当网络设备为终端设备的第一GAP配置了第一阈值时,或者网络设备和终端设备预定义了第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信,包括:终端设备在第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于或等于第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于或等于第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,表明第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级较高,从而终端设备确定在第一GAP期间传输该待传输数据/信令,可保障该第一GAP内高优先级的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
又一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信,包括:终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
第一GAP的优先级为低优先级时,表明对第一GAP内的待测邻区进行测量的优先级较低,从而终端设备在第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令,可保障第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
又一种可选的实施方式中,当网络设备为终端设备配置了第二阈值时,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信,包括:终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于第二阈值,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
该方式中,第一GAP的优先级为低优先级时,表明利用第一GAP进行的待测邻区测量的优先级较低。因此,终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于第二阈值,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令,而不进行邻区测量,以保证该优先级较高的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信之前,终端设备还可在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内是否存在待传输数据/信令。终端设备在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定待传输数据/信令的优先级。其中,第一时间点是第一GAP到达之前的时间点。
可见,终端设备还可在第一GAP到达之前的第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内是否存在待传输数据/信令,从而终端设备在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定待传输数据/信令的优先级,以使得终端设备可结合第一GAP的优先级和待传输数据/信令的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在第一GAP期间通信。
一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备确定第一GAP的优先级,包括:终端设备接收来自网络设备的配置信息,该配置信息包括一个或多个GAP中每个GAP的优先级。终端设备根据配置信息确定第一GAP的优先级。可见,终端设备可根据网络设备配置的一个或多个GAP的优先级,确定任一GAP的优先级。
另一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备确定第一GAP的优先级,包括:终端设备在第一GAP用于对与服务小区频率相同但子载波不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,或者用于对与服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,确定第一GAP的优先级为高优先级;终端设备在第一GAP用于对与当前服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行周期性测量时,或者用于对与当前系统不相同的异系统进行邻区测量时,确定第一GAP的优先级为低优先级。
可见,终端设备还可根据第一GAP所测量的邻区类型和测量上报类型,自行确定第一GAP的优先级。其中,测量上报类型包括满足测量事件触发条件时触发测量报告、和满足周期性上报条件时触发测量报告两种类型。
从而,终端设备可将需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为高优先级,以保障终端设备利用该优先级较高的GAP优先进行邻区测量;而将无需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为低优先级,以保障该低优先级的GAP内待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
一种可选的实施方式中,多个GAP存在重叠时,第一GAP为多个重叠GAP中优先级最高的GAP。也就是说,多个GAP之间存在重叠时,终端设备所使用(或所确定)的GAP是多个重叠的GAP中优先级最高的GAP,从而有利于使用该优先级最高的GAP,确定利用该优先级最高的GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该优先级最高的GAP期间通信。
第二方面,本申请实施例还提供了一种邻区测量方法,该方法应用于网络设备中。该方法包括:网络设备确定配置信息,并向终端设备发送该配置信息。该配置信息包括一个或多个间隙GAP中每个GAP的优先级,每个GAP的优先级是基于该GAP内待测量的邻区类型和测量上报类型确定的。
其中,测量上报类型包括满足测量事件触发条件时触发测量报告、和满足周期性上报条件时触发测量报告两种类型。
可见,网络设备为终端设备配置了每个GAP的优先级,从而有利于终端设备根据每个 GAP的优先级,确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该GAP期间通信。进而有利于使得终端设备在该GAP的优先级较低时,保障该GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
一种可选的实施方式中,第一GAP用于对与服务小区频率相同但子载波不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,或者用于对与服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,第一GAP的优先级为高优先级;第一GAP用于对与当前服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行周期性测量时,或者用于对与当前系统不相同的异系统进行邻区测量时,第一GAP的优先级为低优先级。其中,第一GAP为一个或多个GAP中的任一GAP。
可见,网络设备是根据每个GAP所测量的邻区类型和测量上报类型,确定该GAP的优先级的。从而,网络设备可将对需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为高优先级,以保障终端设备利用该优先级较高的GAP优先进行邻区测量;而将无需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为低优先级,以保障该低优先级的GAP内待传输数据/信令被及时传输。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例进行阐述。
本申请涉及的通信系统如图1所示,该通信系统可包括但不限于一个网络设备和一个终端设备,图1所示的设备数量和形态用于举例并不构成对本申请实施例的限定,实际应用中可以包括一个以上的网络设备,一个以上的终端设备。图1所示的通信系统以一个网络设备101和一个终端设备102为例进行阐述,网络设备101可为终端设备102提供网络服务。
本申请实施例中的终端设备,也可以称为终端,可以指各种形式的用户设备(user  equipment,UE)、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台(mobile station,MS)、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。终端设备还可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备,第五代(5th-Generation,5G)移动通信网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的终端设备等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
本申请中,网络设备是连接到网络中的物理实体,网络设备可以是基站或核心网网络单元,基站可以是5G基站(gNB),网络设备也可以是后续演进通信系统中的网络设备。
本申请可适用于5G通信系统,还可适用于第四代(4th Generation,4G)通信系统、第三代(3th Generation,3G)通信系统,还可适用于未来新的各种通信系统,例如第六代(6th Generation,6G)通信系统、第七代(7th Generation,7G)通信系统等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
无线通信中,终端设备需进行同频邻区或异频邻区或异系统小区的测量,以满足终端设备移动性需求。终端设备进行同频邻区的测量时不需要间隙(GAP),进行异频邻区或异系统邻区测量时需要GAP,该GAP也称为测量间隙。一种可选的实施方式中,网络设备通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令请求终端设备上报测量不同频带的邻区时是否需要GAP。终端设备基于当前的工作频点和自身能力,向网络设备上报测量哪些频带的邻区时需要GAP。从而网络设备基于终端设备的上报情况,为终端设备需要GAP的频带配置GAP。另一种可选的实施方式中,网络设备直接为终端设备配置执行异频测量或异系统测量时的GAP。
如图2所示,当某个时域资源被配置为GAP时,终端设备在该GAP期间不能与服务小区进行通信,终端设备需将频率切换到目标频率上,以在目标频率上利用该GAP对邻区进行测量。当该GAP结束时,终端设备再将目标频率切换到服务小区的频率上,从而与服务小区进行通信。
目前,网络设备可为终端设备配置一个或多个GAP,每个GAP关联一个或多个待测量的频率。终端设备会在每个GAP期间与服务小区中断服务,且在每个GAP结束时,再切换回服务小区的频率上,与服务小区进行通信。因此,会导致终端设备在服务小区的数据传输被多次打断,无法保证部分数据/信令被及时传输。
本申请实施例提供了一种邻区测量方法100。该方法应用于配置了一个或多个间隙GAP的终端设备中。该方法中,终端设备确定第一GAP的优先级。终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信。该第一GAP是一个或多个GAP中的任一GAP。终端设备不是在每个GAP内均对待测邻区进行测量,而是根据任一GAP的优先级,确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该GAP期间通信。在该GAP期间通信是指在该GAP期间收发待传输数据/信令。从而可使得终端设备在该GAP的优先级较低时,保障该GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
基于上述描述,本申请实施例提出一种如图3所示的邻区测量方法100,该方法应用于配置了一个或多个间隙GAP的终端设备中,该方法可以包括S301-S302:
S301.终端设备确定第一间隙GAP的优先级,第一GAP是一个或多个GAP中的任一GAP。
本申请实施例中,终端设备确定第一GAP的优先级包括单不限于以下两种实施方式:
1.终端设备根据来自网络设备的配置信息确定第一GAP的优先级,该配置信息包括一个或多个GAP中每个GAP的优先级。
可理解的,当网络设备给终端设备配置了一个或多个GAP时,网络设备确定配置信息,该配置信息包括一个或多个间隙GAP中每个GAP的优先级,每个GAP的优先级是基于GAP内待测量的邻区类型和测量上报类型确定的。也就是说,网络设备给终端设备配置一个或多个GAP时,网络设备可通过该配置信息为终端设备的每个GAP配置优先级或者设置一个统一的优先级。从而,网络设备向终端设备发送该配置信息,终端设备接收来自网络设备的配置信息。然后终端设备根据该配置信息确定一个或多个GAP中第一GAP的优先级,即可确定任一GAP的优先级。
一种可选的实施方式中,网络设备在第一GAP用于对与服务小区频率相同但子载波不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,或者用于对与服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,确定第一GAP的优先级为高优先级。其中,测量事件评估包括测量事件类型,以及测量事件触发条件等配置。
另一种可选的实施方式中,网络设备在第一GAP用于对与当前服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行周期性测量时,或者用于对与当前系统不相同的异系统进行邻区测量时,确定第一GAP的优先级为低优先级。
也就是说,网络设备可根据第一GAP所测量的邻小区类型和测量上报类型,确定该第一GAP的优先级,以使得终端设备利用不同的第一GAP进行不同的邻小区测量事件时,其第一GAP的优先级不相同。
该方式中,网络设备可将需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为高优先级,以保障终端设备利用该优先级较高的GAP优先进行邻区测量;而将无需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为低优先级,以保障该低优先级的GAP内待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
示例性地,网络设备为终端设备配置的多个频点的测量包括同频邻区测量、异频邻区测量,以及异系统邻区的测量。服务小区所在的频点为F1。网络设备为与频率F1相同但子载波不相同的异频邻区测量配置了GAP1;为同系统异频频率F2和F3配置了GAP2,且为F2和F3均配置了测量事件A4或A5等;为同系统异频频率F4配置了周期性测量(PeriodicalReportConfig),以及该F4的测量GAP为GAP3;为异系统(与当前系统不相同的系统)配置了频率F5上的邻区测量,且测量GAP为GAP4。其中,GAP1-GAP4的参数可不相同,也可部分相同。比如各个GAP的周期不相同,或各个GAP的起始位置不相同,或各个GAP长度不相同等。
从而,网络设备将GAP1和GAP2的优先级配置为高优先级,将GAP3和GAP4的优先级配置为低优先级,并通过配置信息将该GAP1-GAP4的优先级告知给终端设备,以使得终端设备根据该配置信息确定GAP1-GAP4中任一GAP的优先级。
该方式中,网络设备为一个或多个GAP中的每个GAP配置了优先级,可降低对终端设备的能力要求。
2.终端设备自行根据第一GAP内待测量的邻区类型和测量上报类型确定第一GAP的优先级。
测量上报类型包括满足测量事件触发条件时触发测量报告、和满足周期性上报条件时触发测量报告两种类型。
一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备在第一GAP用于对与服务小区频率相同但子载波不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,或者用于对与服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行测量事件评估时,确定第一GAP的优先级为高优先级。
另一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备在第一GAP用于对与当前服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行周期性测量时,或者用于对与当前系统不相同的异系统进行邻区测量时,确定第一GAP的优先级为低优先级。
该方式中,处理能力较强的终端设备可自行根据第一GAP内待测邻区和测量上报类型,确定每个GAP的优先级,有利于减少信令开销。
另外,终端设备可自行将需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为高优先级,以保障终端设备利用该优先级较高的GAP优先进行邻区测量;而将无需及时测量的待测邻区所采用的GAP设置为低优先级,以保障该低优先级的GAP内待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
可见,网络设备可根据一个或多个GAP中的每个GAP内的邻区测量类型和测量上报类型配置该GAP的优先级,或者处理能力较强的终端设备也可自行根据每个GAP内的邻区测量类型和测量上报类型确定该GAP的优先级。
一种可选的实施方式中,多个GAP存在重叠时,第一GAP为多个GAP中优先级最高的GAP。该多个GAP存在重叠是指多个GAP在时域资源上存在重叠。也就是说,当多个GAP存在重叠时,终端设备所使用(或所确定)的GAP是重叠GAP中优先级最高的GAP。从而有利于终端设备使用该优先级最高的GAP,确定利用该优先级最高的GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该优先级最高的GAP期间通信。
示例性地,在时域资源上存在重叠的GAP包括GAP1、GAP2、GAP3,且GAP3的优先级大于GAP1的优先级,GAP1的优先级大于GAP2的优先级,那么终端设备所使用的GAP为GAP3,即第一GAP为GAP3。
S302.终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信。
可理解的,终端设备利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量是指:终端设备利用第一GAP对第一GAP配置的待测邻区进行测量。例如第一GAP是被配置为对频率F3的邻区进行测量,那么终端设备利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量是指:终端设备利用第一GAP对频率F3的邻区进行测量。
终端设备在第一GAP期间通信是指:终端设备在第一GAP期间收发待传输数据/信令,即终端设备在第一GAP期间接收来自网络设备的数据/信令,或者在第一GAP期间向网络设备发送数据/信令,也即指终端设备与网络设备进行上行通信或下行通信。
另外,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信具有以下实施方式:
实施方式1.终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为高优先级时,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量。
终端设备在任一GAP的优先级为高优先级时,表明该GAP内的邻区测量的优先级高于其他任务的优先级,从而终端设备确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,以保证对该GAP内的待测邻区的及时测量。
实施方式2.当网络设备为终端设备的第一GAP配置了第一阈值时,或者网络设备和终端设备预定义了第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,终端设备在第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于或等于第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
其中,终端设备在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令是指:终端设备在该第一GAP期间发送待传输数据/信令,或在该第一GAP期间接收待传输数据/信令。
该方式中,网络设备可不为终端设备的每个GAP配置优先级,可直接为某个GAP配置对应的第一阈值。例如,网络设备为用于对与当前服务小区频率不相同的邻区进行周期性测量的GAP,或者用于对与当前系统不相同的异系统进行邻区测量的GAP配置一个第一阈值。
可选的,终端设备和网络设备预定义某个GAP对应的第一阈值。
第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于或等于第一GAP对应的第一阈值时,表明第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级较高。从而终端设备确定在第一GAP期间传输该待传输数据/信令,不进行邻区测量,可保障该第一GAP内高优先级的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
实施方式3.终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
第一GAP的优先级为低优先级时,表明对第一GAP内的待测邻区进行测量的优先级较低,从而终端设备在第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令,而不进行邻区测量,可保障第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
实施方式4.当网络设备为终端设备配置了第二阈值时,终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于第二阈值,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。
该方式中,第一GAP的优先级为低优先级时,表明利用第一GAP进行的待测邻区测量的优先级较低。因此,终端设备在第一GAP的优先级为低优先级,且第一GAP内的待传输数据/信令的优先级高于第二阈值,确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令,而不进行邻区测量,以保证该优先级较高的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
可见,终端设备可根据第一GAP的优先级,灵活采用不同方式确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在第一GAP期间通信。
一种可选的实施方式中,终端设备根据第一GAP的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间通信之前,终端设备还可在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内是否存在待传输数据/信令,第一时间点是第一GAP到达之前的时间点。终端设备在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定待传输数据/信令的优先级。
其中,第一时间点是第一GAP到达之前的一个时间点。第一时间点与第一GAP起始时间点之间的时间间隔可以是终端设备和网络设备采用协议预先设定的时间间隔,比如,预定义该时间间隔为1ms。第一时间点与第一GAP起始时间点之间的时间间隔也可以由网络设备依据终端设备上报的能力设置的。例如,当终端设备处理能力较强时,网络设备将该时间间隔设置得较小;当终端设备处理能力较弱时,网络设备将该时间间隔设置得较大。
可见,终端设备还可在第一GAP到达之前的第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内是否存在待传输数据/信令,从而终端设备在第一时间点之前确定第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令时,确定待传输数据/信令的优先级,以使得终端设备可结合第一GAP的优先级和待传输数据/信令的优先级,确定利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在第一GAP期间通信。
示例性地,终端设备在第一时间点之前接收到下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI),且通过该DCI中的priorityIndicator指示,获知在第一GAP期间需要接收高优先级的数据。可选的,终端设备在第一时间点之前接收到上行调度的DCI,且终端设备通过该DCI获知在第一GAP期间有上行传输,且本次传输的数据优先级较高,则终端设备在本次第一GAP期间执行数据传输,不执行邻区测量。
示例性地,如图4所示,第一时间点为GAP3到达之前,且提前一定时间间隔(比如,提前的时间间隔为5ms)的时间点。若终端设备在第一时间点到达之前,确定GAP3内存在待传输的数据/信令,则确定待传输数据/信令的优先级,以根据GAP3的优先级和待传输数据/信令的优先级,确定利用GAP3对待测邻区进行测量,或者在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令。若终端设备根据GAP3的优先级确定在GAP3期间传输待传输数据/信令,则终端设备在GAP3期间传输待传输数据/信令。可选的,若GAP3是周期性的,则终端设备在下一个GAP3期间,重复执行上述操作,以判断在下一次GAP3期间传输待传输数据/信令,还是利用该下一次GAP3对待测邻区进行测量。
可选的,当终端设备在第一时间点之后才确定第一GAP内存在待传输数据/信令,终端设备可自行确定在第一GAP期间传输待传输数据/信令,还是利用第一GAP对待测邻区进行测量。
本申请实施例中,终端设备被配置了一个或多个GAP时,不是在每个GAP内均对待测邻区进行测量,而是根据任一GAP的优先级,确定利用该GAP对待测邻区进行测量,还是在该GAP期间通信。在该GAP期间通信是指在该GAP期间收发待传输数据/信令。从而可使得终端设备在该GAP的优先级较低时,保障该GAP内的待传输数据/信令被及时传输。
