- the IAB-donor (not shown) performs centralized resource, topology and routing management for the IAB topology 10 .
- the IAB node In a multi-hop scenario, in order to realize the relay and forwarding of data packets, the IAB node needs to determine the target node where the data packet arrives, and then determine the next-hop node corresponding to the target node according to the routing table and send it.
- the donor-CU configures the IAB node through F1AP (F1 application protocol) signaling for each uplink F1-U Tunnel, non-UE associated (Non-UE associated) F1AP message, and user equipment associated (UE) initiated from the IAB node.
- F1AP F1 application protocol
- UE user equipment associated
- the IAB node determines the BAP routing identifiers corresponding to different types of upstream IP packets initiated from the IAB node based on the routing identifier mapping information, and encapsulates the BAP subheaders containing the BAP routing identifier information for these upstream IP packets.
- Donor-CU configures the mapping of different types of downlink data packets to BAP routing identifiers for donor-DU through F1AP signaling.
- Donor-DU determines the BAP routing identifier corresponding to the received downstream IP packets based on the routing identifier mapping information, and encapsulates the BAP subheader containing the BAP routing identifier downstream for these downstream IP packets.
- the BAP routing identifier includes the destination BAP address and the path identity from the IAB node to the donor-DU.
- the BAP address is also called DESTINATION in the BAP header.
- Each IAB node and donor-DU are configured with a BAP address.
- RRC can be configured with a default BH RLC channel and a default BAP route identifier for non-F1-U traffic. These configurations can be updated in topology adaptation scenarios.
- IAB nodes can have redundant paths to different IAB-donor-CUs.
- NR-DC can be used to allow the IAB-MT and two parent nodes to have backhaul links at the same time, thereby achieving backhaul route redundancy.
- Two parent nodes can be connected to different IAB-donor-CUs, and these IAB-donor-CUs can control the establishment and release of redundant routes through the two parent nodes.

- Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of partial migration between hosts.
- node 3 is called the boundary IAB node.
- a border IAB node refers to one of its RRC interfaces and F1 interfaces that terminate to different IAB-donor-CUs. Border IAB nodes are suitable for partial migration, inter-host topology redundancy and inter-host RLF (radio link failure, wireless link failure) recovery.
- the DU of node 3 terminates to CU1
- the MT of node 3 has interfaces to both CU1 and CU2, so it meets the definition of a border IAB node.

- IAB node 4 is a descendant node.
- the F1-terminating host node refers to the donor-CU that terminates the F1 interfaces of the border IAB nodes and descendant nodes.

- SA mode can support partial migration between hosts.
- an IAB node in SA mode When an IAB node in SA mode declares a backhaul link RLF, it can perform RLF recovery on the parent node under a different IAB-donor-CU. Like partial migration between hosts, the collocated IAB-DU and the IAB-DU of the descendant node can maintain the F1 connection with the original IAB-donor-CU.
- IAB node 3 is the boundary IAB node, and IAB-MT3 changes from a single connection to the parent node IAB node 1 to a single connection to the parent node IAB node 2.
- IAB-DU3 and its child node IAB node 4 still have F1 connections with donor-CU1, but the path taken by this F1 connection is through IAB node 2 and finally reaches donor-CU1.
- the boundary node (node 3) is the migration node.
- the scenario of partial migration between hosts is also applicable to partial RLF recovery.
- the border IAB node belongs to two IAB topologies.

- an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application provides a method of configuring information. This method applies to IAB nodes.
- Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of a method for configuring information according to the embodiment of the first aspect. As shown in Figure 4, the method includes:

- the first indication information is used to indicate whether the topology to which the default upstream BAP route ID belongs belongs to an F1 terminated topology or a non-F1 terminated topology.
- the first indication information may be necessary only for the border IAB node.
- the default uplink BAP routing ID (defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID) field may be configured or the backhaul adaptation protocol configuration (bap- Config)'s donor central unit (donor-CU) indicates the topology to which the default upstream BAP route ID belongs. Therefore, it is possible to implicitly indicate which topology the default upstream BAP route ID belongs to.
- the default upstream BAP route ID field is configured by the F1 termination host or the bap-Config containing the default upstream BAP route ID field is configured, then the default upstream BAP route ID belongs to the F1 termination topology; if it is configured by a non-F1 If the termination host configures the default upstream BAP route ID field or configures bap-Config containing the default upstream BAP route ID field, then the default upstream BAP route ID belongs to a non-F1 termination topology.
- the RRC standard can be enhanced in TS 38.331.
- the defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID field in the bap-Config IE of the RRC reconfiguration information can be modified to the form shown in Table 3 below.
- the configuration of the F1 termination host or the non-F1 termination host can be determined by whether the MN or SN is the F1 termination host.
- the default upstream BAP route ID field or bap-Config containing the default upstream BAP route ID field is configured.
- the IAB node selects the MN or SN as the F1 termination host.
- the default upstream BAP route ID field or bap-Config is included in the RRC reconfiguration message transmitted through SRB3, or the default uplink BAP route ID field or bap-Config is included in the multi-radio access technology dual connectivity secondary cell group Information element (mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE), then the default upstream BAP route ID field or bap-Config is configured by the secondary node (SN). If the default upstream BAP route ID field or bap-Config is included in the RRC reconfiguration message transmitted through SRB1 and is not included in the mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE, then the default upstream BAP route ID field or bap-Config is configured by the master node (MN) configuration.
- MN master node
- the RRC reconfiguration message will configure the default upstream BH RLC for the F1-C and non-F1 traffic of the IAB node.
- Channel (defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel). This default upstream BH RLC channel can be configured or reconfigured when the IP address corresponding to the F1-C related traffic of the IAB node changes, and when the new IP address is anchored in a different IAB-donor-DU.
- the link of the BH RLC channel needs to be specified, which is the uplink parent node link, which is also equivalent to the cell group.
- the default uplink BH RLC channel points to the RLC channel on the SCG (secondary cell group, secondary cell group), otherwise, points to the MCG (master cell group, RLC (radio link control) channel on the primary cell group).
- the parent node of an IAB node can belong to different IAB-donor-CUs, that is, the boundary IAB node can have two IAB-donor-CUs. Both MN (master node) and SN (secondary node) can be used as F1 termination host nodes. If the IAB node establishes the NR-DC before the F1-C connection is established, the IAB node can implicitly derive that the MN or SN is the F1 termination host, for example based on the entity providing the default BAP configuration. In this case, the Rel-16 designation method does not apply, because in the Rel-17 NR-DC scenario, the default uplink BH RLC channel can also point to the SCG. That is, if IAB-MT works in addition to the EN-DC scenario, the default uplink BH RLC channel can point to the RLC channel of MCG or SCG.
- the configuration of the defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel must be based on the configuration. Channel to select the egress link. Therefore, the ambiguity of the default uplink BH RLC channel leads to ambiguity in egress link selection, and further specification of topology information or cell group information is required.
- an embodiment of the second aspect of the present application provides a method of configuring information. This method applies to IAB nodes.
- Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a method for configuring information according to the embodiment of the second aspect. As shown in Figure 5, the method includes:

- the IAB node does not operate in EN-DC.
- the IAB node may be a boundary IAB node, for example, IAB node 3 shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3 .
- the IAB node of this application is not limited to this, and the IAB node can also be of other types.
- the topology-related information may refer to: topology information and/or cell group information.
- the topology includes F1 termination topology or non-F1 termination topology.
- the cell group information includes primary cell group/secondary cell group (MCG/SCG) information.

- the second indication information may be necessary for a dual-connection node, an NR-DC node, or a border IAB node.
- the default uplink BH RLC channel field (defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel) may point to the RLC channel of the MCG or point to the RLC channel of the SCG.
- the default uplink BH RLC channel may be configured by field (defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel) or the host central unit (donor-CU) configured with bap-Config containing the default uplink BH RLC channel field indicates the cell group pointed to by the default uplink BH RLC channel. Therefore, relevant information about the topology to which the default uplink BH RLC channel belongs can be indicated implicitly.
- the default uplink BH RLC channel field (defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel) is configured by the MN or a bap-Config containing the default uplink BH RLC channel field is configured, then the default The uplink BH RLC channel points to the RLC channel on the MCG; if the default uplink BH RLC channel field (defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel) is configured by the SN or the bap-Config containing the default uplink BH RLC channel field is configured, then The default upstream BH RLC channel points to the RLC channel on the SCG.

Abstract
本申请实施例提供一种配置信息的方法、装置和通信系统,该配置信息的装置应用于IAB节点,该装置包括:第一接收单元,其接收RRC重配置消息,该RRC重配置消息指示为所述IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
Description
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域。
集成的接入和回传(Integrated access and backhaul,IAB)又称接入回传一体化在下一代无线接入网络(NG-RAN:next generation radio access network)中实现了无线中继的功能。集成的接入和回传节点(IAB-node)支持通过新无线(New Radio,NR)的接入和回传。NR回传在网络侧中终止点被称为IAB-donor,它表示一个具有支持IAB功能的网络设备(例如,gNB)。
IAB-node可以通过一跳或者多跳来连接到一个IAB宿主(IAB-donor)。这些多跳连接形成了一个以IAB宿主为根节点的有向无环图(DAG,Directed Acyclic Graph)拓扑结构。IAB宿主负责执行IAB网络拓扑中集中式的资源管理、拓扑管理和路由管理。
IAB-node支持gNB-DU(distributed unit,分布式单元)的功能,IAB-node DU也被称为IAB-DU,IAB-DU是到终端设备(UE)和下一跳IAB-node的无线接入(NR access)接口的终点,也是到IAB-donor上的gNB-CU(central unit,中心单元)的F1协议的终点。IAB-DU可以服务普通的UE和IAB子节点。IAB-DU实现网络侧设备功能,连接到下游的child IAB-node,对UE以及下游child IAB-node提供NR空口接入并与IAB donor-CU之间建立有F1连接。
除了gNB-DU功能,IAB-node也支持一部分UE的功能,被称为IAB-MT(Mobile Termination),IAB-MT包括比如物理层、层2、RRC和NAS功能来连接到另一个IAB-node或IAB-donor的gNB-DU、连接到IAB-donor上的gNB-CU和连接到核心网。IAB-MT可支持如UE物理层、接入(access stratum,AS)、无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)层和非接入(non-access stratum,NAS)层功能,可以连接到IAB父节点。
IAB-donor是网络侧的终结节点,IAB-donor通过回传或接入链路为IAB-MT或UE提供网络接入。IAB-donor又进一步分为IAB-donor-CU(central unit)和 IAB-donor-DU。IAB-DU和IAB-donor-CU之间通过F1接口连接。在独立组网场景下,gNB与IAB-donor-CU之间通过Xn接口连接。
为了支持数据包的多跳路由转发,IAB引入了回传适配协议(Backhaul Adaptation Protocol,BAP)子层。BAP子层位于无线链路控制(RLC)子层之上、IP层之下,支持数据包目的节点及路径选择、数据包路由转发、承载映射、流控反馈、回传链路失败通知等功能。
图1是IAB父子节点关系的一个示意图。如图1所示,在IAB父子节点关系结构10中,IAB-node 100包括IAB-MT功能单元101和IAB-DU功能单元102,IAB-DU功能单元102的接口上的邻节点被称为子节点(child node),如图1中所示的子节点201、202、203,IAB-DU功能单元102与子节点201、202、203之间可以通过空中接口(Uu)进行通信;IAB-MT功能单元101的接口上的邻节点被称为父节点(parent node),如图1中所示的父节点301、302,IAB-MT功能单元101与父节点301、302之间可以通过空中接口(Uu)进行通信。
如图1所示,IAB-node 100到子节点201、202、203的方向被称为下游(downstream)方向,IAB-node 100到父节点301、302的方向被称为上游(upstream)方向。IAB-donor(未图示)为该IAB拓扑结构10执行集中式的资源、拓扑和路由管理。
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
在多跳场景下,为了实现数据包的中继转发,IAB节点需要确定数据包到达的目标节点,然后根据路由表确定到达目标节点对应的下一跳节点并发送。由donor-CU通过F1AP(F1 application protocol)信令为IAB节点配置从IAB节点发起的上行每个F1-U Tunnel、非用户设备关联的(Non-UE associated)F1AP消息、用户设备关联的(UE-associated)F1AP消息、非F1流量(Non-F1 Traffic)到BAP路由标识的映射。
IAB节点根据路由标识映射信息确定从IAB节点发起的不同类型上行IP包对应的BAP路由标识,并为这些上行IP包封装包含BAP路由标识信息的BAP子头。 Donor-CU通过F1AP信令为donor-DU配置不同类型的下行数据包到BAP路由标识的映射。Donor-DU根据路由标识映射信息确定收到的下行IP包对应的BAP路由标识,并为这些下行IP包封装包含BAP路由标识下行的BAP子头。
BAP路由标识包括目的BAP地址和从IAB节点到donor-DU之间的路径标识(path identity)。BAP地址在BAP报头中也被称为DESTINATION(目的地)。每个IAB节点及donor-DU都被配置了一个BAP地址。
在IAB节点启动(integration)时,RRC可以配置用于非F1-U流量的一个缺省的BH RLC信道和一个缺省的BAP路由标识。这些配置可以在拓扑适配(topology adaptation)的场景进行更新。
IAB节点可以有冗余的路径到不同IAB-donor-CU。对于在独立组网(Stand Alone,SA)模式下工作的IAB节点,可以通过NR-DC来允许IAB-MT和两个父节点同时具有回传链路,从而实现回传的路线冗余。两个父节点可以连接到不同的IAB-donor-CU,这些IAB-donor-CU可以控制经过该两个父节点的冗余路线的建立和释放。父节点的gNB-DU功能和对应的IAB-donor-CU一起获得了IAB-MT的主节点(MN)和/或辅节点(SN)的角色。NR-DC的框架(比如MCG/SCG相关的过程)被用来配置IAB节点到父节点的双无线连接。
图2是宿主间拓扑冗余(inter-donor topology redundancy,或者是inter-CU topology redundancy)网络结构的一个示意图。图3是宿主间部分迁移的一个示意图。
如图2所示,节点3被称为边界(boundary)IAB节点。边界IAB节点指其某个RRC接口和F1接口终结到不同的IAB-donor-CU。边界IAB节点适用于部分迁移、宿主间拓扑冗余和宿主间RLF(radio link failure,无线链路失败)恢复。如图2所示,节点3的DU终结到CU1,节点3的MT对CU1和CU2都有接口,因此符合边界IAB节点的定义。后裔(descendant)IAB节点指通过边界IAB节点接入到网络的节点,而且每个节点都是单连接到自己的父节点,比如IAB节点4是后裔节点。F1终结(F1-terminating)宿主节点指对边界IAB节点和后裔节点的F1接口进行终结的donor-CU,比如donor-CU1为F1终结节点,即,图2中的IAB-DU3和IAB-DU4的F1接口终结到donor-CU1。非F1终结(Non-F1-terminating)宿主节点指没有对边界IAB节点和后裔节点的F1接口进行终结、且具有宿主功能的CU,比如图2的donor-CU2。在图2所示的拓扑冗余场景中,边界节点(即,节点3)是双连接节点。 在宿主间拓扑冗余的场景,边界IAB节点(即,IAB节点3)以及后裔节点可以分别通过第一路径(First path)和第二路径(Second path)与CU1通信。
在图3中,边界IAB节点的IAB-MT(即,IAB-MT3)可以迁移到一个不同的IAB-donor-CU下面的父节点下(例如,迁移到Donor-CU2下面的父节点下)。在这种情况下,并置的IAB-DU(即,IAB-DU3)以及后裔节点的IAB-DU(例如,IAB-DU4)保持了和原来IAB-donor-CU(例如,Donor-CU1)的F1连接。这种迁移叫做宿主间部分迁移(inter-donor partial migration)。在宿主间部分迁移之后,边界IAB节点的IAB-DU和后裔节点的F1流量经由边界IAB节点的IAB-MT迁移到的IAB拓扑的BAP层进行路由。SA模式能够支持宿主间部分迁移。
当SA模式的IAB节点声明回传链路RLF时,其可以在不同IAB-donor-CU下面的父节点进行RLF恢复。和宿主间部分迁移一样,并置的IAB-DU以及后裔节点的IAB-DU可以保持和原来IAB-donor-CU的F1连接。
IAB节点3是边界IAB节点,IAB-MT3从单连接到父节点IAB节点1改变为单连接到父节点IAB节点2。IAB-DU3和其子节点IAB节点4都仍然和donor-CU1进行F1连接,但是这个F1连接经过的路径是通过IAB节点2最终到达donor-CU1的。在图3所示的宿主间部分迁移的场景中,边界节点(节点3)是迁移节点。宿主间部分迁移的场景也同样适用于部分RLF恢复。
本申请的发明人发现,边界IAB节点属于两个IAB拓扑,现有技术在为边界IAB节点配置缺省上行BAP路由ID和/或缺省上行BH RLC信道时,没有表明是哪个拓扑,例如:在配置缺省上行BH RLC信道时,没有考虑SN作为F1终结宿主的情况。此外,在为边界IAB节点或者其后裔节点配置IP地址时,也没有考虑对应的donor-DU的BAP地址为伪地址的情况。

在现有技术(例如TS38.331)中,RRC重配置消息中的关于配置缺省BAP路由ID和BH RLC信道的字段描述如表1所示。
表1
在现有技术(例如TS38.331)中,RRC重配置消息中的IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration字段内容以及其中的iab-donor-DU-BAP-Address字段描述如表2所示。
表2
在本申请的各实施例中,高层信令例如可以是无线资源控制(RRC)信令;例如称为RRC消息(RRC message),例如包括MIB、系统信息(system information)、专用RRC消息;或者称为RRC IE(RRC information element)。高层信令例如还可以是F1-C信令,或者叫F1AP协议。但本申请不限于此。
在本申请中,以多跳IAB网络部署场景为例,对各实施例进行说明,其中,多个终端设备(例如,UE)通过多跳的IAB节点,连接到IAB-donor,最后接入网络,该网络例如是5G网络。需要说明的是,本申请的各实施例可以不限于上述场景。
在本申请的各实施例中,IAB拓扑指通过回传链路进行互连以及F1接口和/或RRC终结到同一个IAB-donor-CU的所有IAB节点和IAB-donor-DU的组合。例如,在图2和图3中:Donor-DU1、IAB节点1、IAB节点3以及IAB节点4是由Donor-CU1管理的节点,它们与Donor-CU1组成的IAB拓扑网络称为第一拓扑;Donor-DU2、IAB节点2以及IAB节点3是由Donor-CU2管理的节点,它们与Donor-CU2组成的IAB拓扑网络称为第二拓扑。边界节点(即,IAB节点3)既属于第一拓扑也属于第二拓扑。
第一方面的实施例
在IAB节点的引导过程,迁移过程,或者是IAB-MT的RRC恢复以及IAB-MT的RRC重建过程中,RRC重配置消息会为IAB节点的F1-C以及非F1流量配置缺省的上行BAP路由ID(defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID)。这个缺省的上行BAP路由ID可以在IAB节点的F1-C相关流量对应的IP地址改变的时候进行配置或者重配置。
然而,在图2和图3的场景中,边界节点连接了不同IAB拓扑,在边界节点所用到的上行BAP路由标识中,可能会有分别通向两个IAB拓扑(也就是通向两个不同donor-CU下面的donor-DU)的BAP路由标识。因为不同IAB拓扑的BAP路由标识分别由各自的donor-CU来配置和管理,所以属于不同IAB拓扑的BAP路由标识可能会冲突。因此缺省的上行BAP路由ID具有模糊性,需要进一步指明拓扑的相关信息。
为了解决上述问题或类似问题,本申请第一方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法。该方法应用于IAB节点。
图4是第一方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图,如图4所示,该方法包括:
操作401、接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第一方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在操作401中,拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息,和/或小区组(CG,cell group)的信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组的信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信息。
在至少一些实施例中,在操作401中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。例如,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑是属于F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。该第一指示信息可以只对于边界IAB节点才是必须的。
在至少另一些实施例中,在操作401中,可以由配置缺省上行BAP路由ID(defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID)字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的回传适应协议配置(bap-Config)的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
其中,如果由F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于F1终结拓扑;如果由非F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于非F1终结拓扑。
例如,可以在TS 38.331中对RRC标准进行增强。具体地,RRC重配置信息的bap-Config IE中的defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID字段可以被修改为如下的表3所示的形式。
表3
对于通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑的方案,在一个具体的实施方式中,可以通过是MN还是SN是F1终结宿主来确定F1终结宿主还是非F1终结宿主配置的所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config。
例如,如果IAB节点在建立F1连接之后建立NR-DC,那么MN是F1终结宿主;如果IAB节点在建立F1-C之前建立了NR-DC,那么由IAB节点选择MN或者SN作为F1终结宿主。
如果缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB3传输的RRC重配置消息中,或者所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在多无线电接入技术双连接辅小区组信息元素(mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE)中,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config是由辅节点(SN)配置的。如果缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB1传输的RRC重配置消息中,且不是包含在mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE中,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config由主节点(MN)配置。
通过第一方面的实施例,能够指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
第二方面的实施例
在IAB节点的引导过程,迁移过程,或者是IAB-MT的RRC恢复以及IAB-MT的RRC重建过程中,RRC重配置消息会为IAB节点的F1-C以及非F1流量配置缺省上行BH RLC信道(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)。这个缺省上行BH RLC信道可以在IAB节点的F1-C相关流量对应的IP地址改变的时候,以及新的IP地址锚定在不同的IAB-donor-DU时进行配置或者重配置。因为BH RLC信道标识只在每条链路上 唯一,所以在双连接情况下,还需指定该BH RLC信道的链路,也就是上行父节点链路,也等同于小区组。在Rel-16的情况,如果IAB-MT工作在EN-DC场景,缺省的上行BH RLC信道指向SCG(secondary cell group,辅小区组)上的RLC信道,否则,指向MCG(master cell group,主小区组)上的RLC(无线链路控制)信道。
在Rel-17的NR-DC场景,IAB节点的父节点可以属于不同IAB-donor-CU,也就是边界IAB节点可以有两个IAB-donor-CU。MN(master node,主节点)和SN(secondary node,辅节点)都可以作为F1终结宿主节点。如果IAB节点在F1-C连接建立之前建立NR-DC,IAB节点可以通过例如基于提供缺省BAP配置的实体来隐式得出MN或者SN是F1终结宿主。在这种情况下,Rel-16的指定方法不适用,因为Rel-17的NR-DC场景,缺省的上行BH RLC信道也可以指向SCG。也就是,如果IAB-MT除了工作在EN-DC场景之外,缺省的上行BH RLC信道可以指向MCG或者SCG的RLC信道。
在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel之后,没有由F1AP配置或重新配置回传路由配置,需根据配置的defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel来选择出口链路。因此缺省的上行BH RLC信道具有模糊性导致出口链路选择具有模糊性,需要进一步指明拓扑的信息或者小区组信息。
为了解决上述问题或类似问题,本申请第二方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法。该方法应用于IAB节点。
图5是第二方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图,如图5所示,该方法包括:
操作501、接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第二方面的实施例中,该IAB节点不工作在EN-DC。该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在操作501中,拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息和/或小区组信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信息。
在操作501的一些实施例中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑是F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑,或者,第二指示信息用于指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向主小区组(MCG)上的RLC信道或辅小区组(SCG)上的RLC信道。该第二指示信息可以针对双连接节点,或者NR-DC的节点,或者是边界IAB节点是必须的。
在操作501的至少另一些实施例中,该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)可以指向MCG的RLC信道或者指向SCG的RLC信道,可以由配置缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所指向的小区组。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果由MN配置该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向MCG上的RLC信道;如果由SN配置所述缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向SCG上的RLC信道。也就是说,对于IAB节点(例如,边界IAB节点),该缺省的上行BH RLC信道指向配置该字段的donor-CU所配置的回传链路上的RLC信道。
例如,可以在TS 38.331中对RRC标准进行增强。可以在RRC重配置信息的bap-Config IE中的defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel字段进行如表4所示的增强。
表4
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在 通过SRB1传输的RRC重配置消息中,且不是包含在多无线电接入技术双连接辅小区组信息元素(mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE)中,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config由主节点(MN)配置;如果该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB3传输的RRC重配置消息中,或者该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE中,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config由辅节点(SN)配置。
在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1AP配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。
在至少一个实施例中,在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1应用协议(F1AP)配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,IAB节点根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。
通过第二方面的实施例,能够指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
第三方面的实施例
在图2和图3所示的宿主间路由的情况下,边界节点的后裔节点可以使用相同的宿主间(或CU间,inter-CU)拓扑适配过程。例如,当边界节点的IAB-MT迁移到donor-CU2之后,或者是和donor-CU2建立RRC之后,边界节点的IAB-DU仍然和donor-CU1保持F1连接,后裔节点(如IAB节点4)仍然和donor-CU1保持了RRC连接和F1连接。
由于边界节点的后裔节点需要将F1连接的运输路径迁移到非-F1终结拓扑,donor-CU2需根据donor-CU1的请求,为后裔节点提供新的TNL(transport network layer)地址也就是IP地址。这些一个或多个新的TNL地址锚定在donor-CU2的拓扑中的donor-DU,比如donor-DU2上。Donor-CU2通过XnAP消息,比如IAB Transport Migration Management Response消息将这些新的TNL地址发送给donor-CU1。Donor-CU2还提供该拓扑下的层2信息给donor-CU1,比如上行BAP路由标识,其中包含了该拓扑中的donor-DU,比如donor-DU2的BAP地址。Donor-CU1通过 RRCReconfiguration消息来对后裔节点进行IP地址配置。IP地址的配置使用RRC重配置中的IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration IE,其中包含IP地址、IP地址的用途,以及该IP地址对应的donor-DU的BAP地址(iab-donor-DU-BAP-Address)等字段。后裔节点在进行来源于自身的上行数据传输时,通过为该数据流量配置的BAP路由ID得到路由ID里包含的BAP地址,这个地址就是目的地donor-DU的BAP地址,然后在IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration配置中查找与该donor-DU的BAP地址对应的IP地址,选择该IP地址作为该流量使用的IP地址进行上行传输。
由于donor-DU2的BAP地址是CU2的拓扑中的,和CU1的拓扑中的BAP地址可能冲突。
为了解决上述问题,第三方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法,该方法应用于IAB节点。
图6是第三方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图。如图6所示,该方法包括:
操作601、接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息为IAB节点配置第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向第二拓扑下的宿主分布式单元(donor-DU2)。
在第三方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点的后裔节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点4。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在至少一个实施例中,第二拓扑指和该IAB节点所属于的拓扑不同的拓扑。例如,该IAB节点属于边界节点的F1终结拓扑,也就是第一拓扑,该第二拓扑为边界节点的非F1终结拓扑。
在操作601的至少一个实施例中,该RRC重配置消息的IP地址配置中可以包括该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
在至少一个实施例中,IAB节点被配置上行BAP路由ID,该上行BAP路由ID中包含该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
在至少一个实施例中,如图6所示,该方法还包括:
操作602、该IAB节点根据第一donor-DU BAP地址选择IP地址;以及
操作603、该IAB节点使用选择的IP地址经由第二拓扑进行上行传输。
结合图2、图3可知,在第三方面的实施例中,CU1可以给donor-DU2在CU1的拓扑内分配第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址可以叫做伪(pseudo)BAP地址,或者叫别名(alias)地址。CU1可以为后裔节点配置上行BAP路由ID,包含指示donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址。
由于后裔节点在选择IP地址时是根据上行BAP路由ID中的donor-DU BAP地址来进行相应选择,所以IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration中的针对donor-DU2的BAP地址也是donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址,而不是donor-DU2在CU2拓扑中的实际BAP地址。具体地,对于边界IAB节点的后裔节点,IP地址配置中的IAB-donor-DU的BAP地址可以是第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向边界IAB节点的非F1终结宿主CU下面的某个IAB-donor-DU(例如,图2、图3的donor-DU2)。
例如,可以在TS 38.331中对RRC标准进行增强。可以在RRC重配置信息的IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration IE中的iab-donor-DU-BAP-Address字段进行如表5所示的增强。
表5
在至少一个实施例中,IAB节点在收到RRC重配置消息中包含的IAB IP地址增加/修改列表(iab-IP-AddressToAddModList)的情况下,保存该列表中的IP地址和该IP地址对应的第一donor-DU BAP地址。该IP地址可以是IPv4,也可以是IPv6地址。IP地址的用途可以是F1-C,F1-U,非F1流量等。
根据第三方面的实施例,在为边界IAB节点或者后裔节点配置IP地址时,能够应对donor-DU的BAP地址为伪地址的情况。
第四方面的实施例
本申请第四方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法,与第一方面的实施例的配置信息的方法对应。该方法应用于宿主中心单元(CU),例如,图2或图3的donor-CU1或donor-CU2。
图7是第四方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图,如图7所示,该方法包括:
操作701、发送RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第四方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在操作701中,拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息,和/或小区组的信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组的信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信息。
在至少一些实施例中,在操作701中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。例如,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑是属于F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。该第一指示信息可以只对于边界IAB节点才是必须的。
在至少另一些实施例中,在操作701中,可以由配置缺省上行BAP路由ID(defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID)字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的回传适应协议配置(bap-Config)的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
其中,如果由F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于F1终结拓扑;如果由非F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于非F1终结拓扑。
通过第四方面的实施例,能够指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
第五方面的实施例
本申请第五方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法,与第二方面的实施例的配置信息的方法对应。该方法应用于宿主中心单元(CU),例如,图2或图3所示的donor-CU1或donor-CU2。
图8是第五方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图,如图8所示,该方法包括:
操作801、发送RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第五方面的实施例中,该IAB节点不工作在EN-DC。该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在操作801中,拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息和/或小区组信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信息。
在操作801的一些实施例中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑是F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑,或者,第二指示信息用于指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向主小区组(MCG)上的RLC信道或辅小区组(SCG)上的RLC信道。该第二指示信息可以针对双连接节点,或者NR-DC的节点,或者是边界IAB节点是必须的。
在操作801的至少另一些实施例中,该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)可以指向MCG的RLC信道或者指向SCG的RLC信道,可以由配置缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所指向的小区组。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果配置该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主是MN,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向MCG上的RLC信道;如果配置所述缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主是SN,那么该缺省上行BH RLC 信道指向SCG上的RLC信道。也就是说,对于IAB节点(例如,边界IAB节点),该缺省的上行BH RLC信道指向配置该字段的donor-CU所配置的回传链路上的RLC信道。
在至少一个实施例中,在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1应用协议(F1AP)配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,IAB节点根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。
通过第五方面的实施例,能够指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
第六方面的实施例
第六方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的方法,与第三方面的实施例的配置信息的方法对应。该方法应用于宿主中心单元(CU),例如,图2或图3所示的donor-CU1。
图9是第六方面的实施例的配置信息的方法的一个示意图。如图9所示,该方法包括:
操作901、发送RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息为IAB节点配置第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向第二拓扑下的宿主分布式单元(donor-DU2)。
在第六方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点的后裔节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点4。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在至少一个实施例中,第二拓扑指和该IAB节点所属于的拓扑不同的拓扑。例如,该IAB节点属于边界节点的F1终结拓扑,该第二拓扑为边界节点的非F1终结拓扑。
在操作901的至少一个实施例中,该RRC重配置消息的IP地址配置中可以包括该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
在至少一个实施例中,CU可以为IAB节点被配置上行BAP路由ID,该上行BAP路由ID中包含该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
结合图2、图3可知,在第三方面的实施例中,donor-CU1可以给donor-DU2在 CU1的拓扑内分配第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址可以叫做伪(pseudo)BAP地址,或者叫别名(alias)地址。CU1可以为后裔节点配置上行BAP路由ID,包含指示donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址。
由于后裔节点在选择IP地址时是根据上行BAP路由ID中的donor-DU BAP地址来进行相应选择,所以IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration中的针对donor-DU2的BAP地址也是donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址,而不是donor-DU2在CU2拓扑中的实际BAP地址。具体地,对于边界IAB节点的后裔节点,IP地址配置中的IAB-donor-DU的BAP地址可以是第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向边界IAB节点的非F1终结宿主CU下面的某个IAB-donor-DU(例如,图2、图3的donor-DU2)。
在至少一个实施例中,CU发送的RRC重配置消息中可以包含IAB IP地址增加/修改列表(iab-IP-AddressToAddModList),该列表中包括IP地址和该IP地址对应的第一donor-DU BAP地址。该IP地址可以是IPv4,也可以是IPv6地址。IP地址的用途可以是F1-C,F1-U,非F1流量等。
根据第六方面的实施例,在为边界IAB节点或者后裔节点配置IP地址时,能够应对donor-DU的BAP地址为伪地址的情况。
第七方面的实施例
本申请第七方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的装置,与第一方面的实施例所述的配置信息的方法对应。该装置应用于IAB节点。
图10是第七方面的实施例的配置信息的装置的一个示意图,如图10所示,配置信息的装置1000包括:
第一接收单元1001,其接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第七方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息,和/或小区组的信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组的信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信 息。
在至少一些实施例中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。例如,该第一指示信息用于指示缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑是属于F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。该第一指示信息可以只对于边界IAB节点才是必须的。
在至少另一些实施例中,可以由配置缺省上行BAP路由ID(defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID)字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的回传适应协议配置(bap-Config)的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
其中,如果由F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于F1终结拓扑;如果由非F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于非F1终结拓扑。
对于通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑的方案,在一个具体的实施方式中,可以通过是MN还是SN是F1终结宿主来确定F1终结宿主还是非F1终结宿主配置的所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config。
例如,如果IAB节点在建立F1连接之后建立NR-DC,那么MN是F1终结宿主;如果IAB节点在建立F1-C之前建立了NR-DC,那么由IAB节点选择MN或者SN作为F1终结宿主。
如果缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB3传输的RRC重配置消息中,或者所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在多无线电接入技术双连接辅小区组信息元素(mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE)中,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config是由辅节点(SN)配置的。如果缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB1传输的RRC重配置消息中,且不是包含在mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE中,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或bap-Config由主节点(MN)配置。

第八方面的实施例
本申请第八方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的装置,与第二方面的实施例的配置信息的方法对应。该装置应用于IAB节点。
图11是第八方面的实施例的配置信息的装置的一个示意图,如图11所示,该配置信息的装置1100包括:
第二接收单元1101,其接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在第八方面的实施例中,该IAB节点不工作在EN-DC。该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点3。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
拓扑的相关信息可以指:拓扑的信息和/或小区组信息。其中,拓扑包括F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑。小区组信息包括主小区组/辅小区组(MCG/SCG)信息。
在一些实施例中,RRC重配置消息可以具有第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑是F1终结拓扑或非F1终结拓扑,或者,第二指示信息用于指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向主小区组(MCG)上的RLC信道或辅小区组(SCG)上的RLC信道。该第二指示信息可以针对双连接节点,或者NR-DC的节点,或者是边界IAB节点是必须的。
在至少另一些实施例中,该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)可以指向MCG的RLC信道或者指向SCG的RLC信道,可以由配置缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所指向的小区组。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果由MN配置该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向MCG上的RLC信道;如果由SN配 置所述缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向SCG上的RLC信道。也就是说,对于IAB节点(例如,边界IAB节点),该缺省的上行BH RLC信道指向配置该字段的donor-CU所配置的回传链路上的RLC信道。
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果缺省BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB1传输的RRC重配置消息中,且不是包含在多无线电接入技术双连接辅小区组信息元素(mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE)中,那么该缺省BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config由主节点(MN)配置;如果该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在通过SRB3传输的RRC重配置消息中,或者该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config包含在mrdc-SecondaryCellGroup IE中,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段或bap-Config由辅节点(SN)配置。
在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1AP配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。
在至少一个实施例中,在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1应用协议(F1AP)配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,IAB节点根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。
通过第八方面的实施例,能够指示为IAB节点配置的缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
第九方面的实施例
第九方面的实施例提供一种配置信息的装置,与第三方面的实施例的配置信息的方法对应。该装置应用于IAB节点。
图12是第九方面的实施例的配置信息的装置的一个示意图。如图12所示,该配置信息的装置包括:
第三接收单元1201,其接收RRC重配置消息,其中,该RRC重配置消息为IAB节点配置第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向第二拓扑下的宿主分布式单元(donor-DU2)。
在第九方面的实施例中,该IAB节点可以是边界IAB节点的后裔节点,例如,图2或图3所示的IAB节点4。此外,本申请的IAB节点并不限于此,IAB节点也可以是其它的类型。
在至少一个实施例中,第二拓扑指和该IAB节点所属于的拓扑不同的拓扑。例如,该IAB节点属于边界节点的F1终结拓扑,该第二拓扑为边界节点的非F1终结拓扑。
在至少一个实施例中,该RRC重配置消息的IP地址配置中可以包括该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
在至少一个实施例中,IAB节点被配置上行BAP路由ID,该上行BAP路由ID中包含该第一donor-DU BAP地址。
在至少一个实施例中,第三接收单元1201还进行如下操作:
根据第一donor-DU BAP地址选择IP地址;以及
使用选择的IP地址经由第二拓扑进行上行传输。
结合图2、图3可知,在第九方面的实施例中,CU1可以给donor-DU2在CU1的拓扑内分配第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址可以叫做伪(pseudo)BAP地址,或者叫别名(alias)地址。CU1可以为后裔节点配置上行BAP路由ID,包含指示donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址。
由于后裔节点在选择IP地址时是根据上行BAP路由ID中的donor-DU BAP地址来进行相应选择,所以IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration中的针对donor-DU2的BAP地址也是donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址,而不是donor-DU2在CU2拓扑中的实际BAP地址。具体地,对于边界IAB节点的后裔节点,IP地址配置中的IAB-donor-DU的BAP地址可以是第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向边界IAB节点的非F1终结宿主CU下面的某个IAB-donor-DU(例如,图2、图3的donor-DU2)。
在至少一个实施例中,IAB节点在收到RRC重配置消息中包含的IAB IP地址增加/修改列表(iab-IP-AddressToAddModList)的情况下,保存该列表中的IP地址和该IP地址对应的第一donor-DU BAP地址。该IP地址可以是IPv4,也可以是IPv6地址。IP地址的用途可以是F1-C,F1-U,非F1流量等。

在至少另一些实施例中,可以由配置缺省上行BAP路由ID(defaultUL-BAP-RoutingID)字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的回传适应协议配置(bap-Config)的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID所属于的拓扑。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于哪个拓扑。
其中,如果由F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于F1终结拓扑;如果由非F1终结宿主配置所述缺省上行BAP路由ID字段或者配置包含该缺省上行BAP路由ID字段的bap-Config,那么该缺省上行BAP路由ID属于非F1 终结拓扑。

在至少另一些实施例中,该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)可以指向MCG的RLC信道或者指向SCG的RLC信道,可以由配置缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主中心单元(donor-CU)指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所指向的小区组。由此,能够通过隐式的方法指示该缺省上行BH RLC信道所属于的拓扑的相关信息。
在该至少另一些实施例中:如果配置该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主是MN,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向MCG上的RLC信道;如果配置所述缺省上行BH RLC信道字段(defaultUL-BH-RLC-Channel)或者配置包含该缺省上行BH RLC信道字段的bap-Config的宿主是SN,那么该缺省上行BH RLC信道指向SCG上的RLC信道。也就是说,对于IAB节点(例如,边界IAB节点),该缺省的上行BH RLC信道指向配置该字段的donor-CU所配置的回传链路上的RLC信道。
在至少一个实施例中,在BAP子层做路由时,如果在最近一次由RRC配置或者重新配置了缺省上行BH RLC信道之后,没有由F1应用协议(F1AP)配置或重新配置回传路由配置,那么,IAB节点根据缺省上行BH RLC信道对应的小区组来选择出口链路。

由于后裔节点在选择IP地址时是根据上行BAP路由ID中的donor-DU BAP地址来进行相应选择,所以IAB-IP-AddressConfiguration中的针对donor-DU2的BAP地址也是donor-DU2的第一donor-DU BAP地址,而不是donor-DU2在CU2拓扑中的实际BAP地址。具体地,对于边界IAB节点的后裔节点,IP地址配置中的IAB-donor-DU的BAP地址可以是第一donor-DU BAP地址,该第一donor-DU BAP地址指向边界IAB节点的非F1终结宿主CU下面的某个IAB-donor-DU(例如,图2、图3的donor-DU2)。
